A friend introduced me to Vanity Fair Nylon Panties over 15 years ago. With her encouragement I went out and bought several pair. When I put one on for the first time--"Oh, my goodness!!!"-- the fit, the feel, the look--all fantastic!! Almost decadent luxury, almost sinful. As a result, for years I stuck with my cotton briefs, saving my pretty, silky Vanity Fair panties for the only too rare, special occasions.
That has changed. I began to shop on-line, and, while reading the reviews I began to realize there are countless other women and men who appreciate the great qualities of these wonderful panties. They, and now I, accept that these are little, affordable, everyday luxuries that EVERYONE can enjoy. Beneath jeans or slacks, skirts or dresses, I feel so much more confident, 'together' than I have in ages. And at night, whether under a cotton-tee or a satin chemise or anything else, these panties are the greatest!
I wear both the Lace Nouveau (13001) and the companion Ravissant (15712), both "Perfectly Yours" and perfectly mine. The lace insert is a really nice accent. Once in a while I've found them both in the stores in polyester floral prints that are very, very pretty and quite comfy. I do so wish we could find them on-line.
It doesn't matter if you are a Ms. or a Mr., give these panties a try. You will be glad you did!

San Diego, CA

Los Angeles, CA
This panty has a very smooth texture. Your dresses and skirts will fit perfectly without panty lines. It does fit a bit on the larger side but they are so light and silky your clothes will glide over them.
Brooklyn, NY
I bought the black brief and love it. The lace work along the sides of the panty is very beautiful and I love the swirling design. The fit is great and I love that it covers my entire stomach. It is very roomy and I like that the band around to top of the panty is not tight.
Austin, TX
I am happy with these silky panties. They fit well and the lace insert breaks up the monotony of basic underwear. I only wish they came in a multipack.

Nashua, NH
I've worn nothing but nylon panties for the last forty years, and exclusively the Vanity Fair for over the last ten years. They have always been a delicate, pretty and good feeling painty. The nylon quality is tops and they have always washed well. I wear these for every day and I sleep in them with a vanity Fair night gown. There are little or no panty lines even when wearing a skirt, dress or pants. In todays world, men need not be ashamed to feel good with these on. So it is with pleasure that I recommend them to all my friends both male and female. ENJOY LIFE, it's to short not to.
Chattanooga, TN
I'm A male that wears panties everyday. I love these panties and wear them often. They are very soft and hold me well. I have several pair that I have had for years and they are still in great shape.
Detroit, MI
These slippery panties offer full coverage in back and ample room in front for a happy wearer. The high waist and stretchy nyklon give a fellow room where he needs it (in front) and holds and caresses while he walks. The plain waistband is better for a man if it *peeks* over his beltline and shows his panties. Plenty of colours to wear under any slacks and shorts. I have even had women ask where i got them. Exciting nylon undies !
Sarona, WI
These were tagged with the size ordered, but were WAY too big! Even when held up against a different style of the same brand, same size, they appeared to be about 2 sizes to large.
Bensalem, PA
I have been wearing panties for a long time now. These feel the best for us gurls and offer a little support also. I have every color, I think and enjoy them. I found buying a size larger is better for me, gives that extra silky room I enjoy.

I bought this breif not knowing what kind of comfort it would provide, was I happy to learn the comfort and sleekness of this breif. I will keep buying this product!
Saint Paul, MN
Great pair of daily use panties.. I wear these every day for comfort under jeans, dress slacks or whatever. They last a long time and are light enough that the panty line is not really visible. Much more comfortable than cotton underwear and feels like you are not wearing anything at all! As usual, another quality Vanity Fair product.
fort myers beach, Florida
purchased these for my mother in law who is 89 and very particular about her undies. She loves them so am stocking up on them for Christmas. She is unable to drive or shop; so when I surprised here with three pairs, she was elated. Nothing like making your 89 year old mother in law happy and excited to receive something soft, sleek and silky.

Death of Brittanie Cecil
Brittanie Nichole Cecil (March 20, 1988 – March 18, 2002) was a hockey fan who died from injuries suffered when a puck was deflected into the stands and struck her in the left temple at Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio, on March 16, 2002. It was the first and currently only fan fatality in the NHL's 85-year history.[1]
Because of Brittanie's death, the league implemented mandatory netting at either end of the rink in every stadium at the beginning of the next NHL season in 2002–03 to protect spectators from errant pucks.
In April 2004, a little over two years after Brittanie's death, her parents received $1.2 million in a settlement with the NHL and other groups.[2]
Personal life[edit]
A native of West Alexandria, Ohio, a rural community near Dayton, Brittanie was an avid sports fan, soccer player, competing in a state tournament with her team, the Orange Crush, at eleven years old. Upon qualifying for the state tournament, mayor Carol Lunsford declared the day Orange Crush Day.[1] Brittanie attended Twin Valley South Middle School as a cheerleader, student council member and an honor student.[1] She went to Thompson secondary school.
The incident[edit]
Brittanie had been watching the Columbus Blue Jackets play the Calgary Flames on March 16, 2002, on tickets received as an early gift from her father for her 14th birthday. A shot by the Blue Jackets' Espen Knutsen was deflected by the Flames' Derek Morris and went over the glass behind the net, striking her in the left temple. Play carried on as the players were unaware of having inadvertently caused any serious injury.[1] In fact, although Brittanie had suffered a skull fracture, she walked to a first-aid station before being taken to Columbus Children's Hospital in an ambulance with her only visible injury being a gash on her forehead. At the hospital, she suffered an initial seizure and was admitted,[1] but the next day she appeared to be recovering, both communicative and ambulatory, and without complaints of pain or dizziness. A CT-scan, however, had failed to catch a torn vertebral artery, resulting in severe clotting and swelling of the brain. On March 18, she developed a high fever and lost consciousness.[3] She died nearly 48 hours after being struck, at 5:15 p.m. on March 18, 2002, two days before her 14th birthday.[1]
Brittanie's funeral was held at Preble Memory Gardens Chapel near West Alexandria, after which a procession of more than 150 cars followed the hearse to Fairview Cemetery, where she was buried.[1] Attending the funeral was Blue Jackets general manager Dave King, who spoke on behalf of the team.[1]
The Thursday after the incident, a moment of silence was observed for Brittanie at the next Blue Jackets home game, played against the Detroit Red Wings. Her initials "BNC" were worn by the team's players on their helmets for the remainder of the season[1] and the Brittanie Cecil Memorial Fund has since been created, which collects donations at every Blue Jackets home game.[4]
Knutsen and Morris, the two players who combined for the fatal slapshot, expressed remorse following Brittanie's death. Morris, who deflected the puck, explained, "You try to say, 'It happens all the time,' but you can't. I don't know how many times pucks get deflected over the glass, but it doesn't make it any better. You can always say, 'It's not my fault,' but you always feel like it is, a little."[1] Knutsen, who was given the option of sitting out the next game by Blue Jackets coach Dave King but chose to play, told reporters, "I think about it all the time. It was a terrible accident, and I cannot get it off my mind."[1]
In December 2010, Knutsen met with Brittanie's family, bringing some closure to both parties.[5] Exactly ten years after her death, the Blue Jackets played the Flames away on March 18, 2012.[6]

Starbucks Adds Alcohol: Chain Is One Bad Hot Dog Away From Becoming 7-Eleven
Be very afraid, girls: Starbucks no longer a safe haven from drunk-tards hitting on you.
Jonny Boy
As if the hipster / unpublished author / part-time screenwriter milieu of Starbucks wasn't enough of a reason to get your ass to the nearest indie java dealer ASAP, the coffee giant announced today that it's adding alcohol to the menu of as many as six Southern California locations.
Our local Starbucks could already use a bouncer to defend caffeine addicts against the crack addicts (not to mention the aggressively bad, ready made sandwiches), so anything 40 proof would just be the whipped cream on top.
As our sister blog Squid Ink notes, the addition of hooch to the fine offerings could help you "make your own Four Loko" -- that since-remixed and oft-banned concoction of alcohol and caffeine.
Clarice Turner, senior veep of U.S. ops at Starbucks says the move will ...
... evolve and enhance the Starbucks Experience based on what our customers are telling us.
Burp. That's what they're telling you.
We're amazed at Starbiggy's evolution from a near-high-end franchise (remember the breathless reaction to $2 coffee and $5 latte?) to a 7-Eleven you can live in, complete with panhandlers, so-so coffee, bad food and, now, booze.
Starbucks' Turner promises:
At select stores where it is relevant for the neighborhood, we are focused on creating an atmosphere where our customers can relax with a friend, a small bite to eat and a cup of coffee or glass of wine.
Mmm. Yes. Savor the terroir of Guy-Who-Lives-With-Mom-And-Comments-On-All-News-Stories, who's sitting next you, salivating over the nearby Asian American college girls and, now, has ample opportunity to get drunk as well.
Perhaps the saving grace of Starbucks at night was that hot young women and the unemployed men who love them could find a place safe from outright nightclub perversion.
No more, apparently.
If you read Kelefa Sanneh's awesome piece in the New Yorker late last year about the new appreciation for a "farmer-obsessed coffee movement" that eschew's Starbucks' over-roasted, mass-market fare, you know how far the chain has fallen down the java totem poll.
What's interesting here is that the 'Bucks seems to be doing so willingly, embracing the drink-in-the-liquor-store-parking-lot ethos: This is brown-paper-bagging-it with wi-fi!

The Blue Room (La Chambre bleue)
By Alan Scherstuhl
The film shuttles back and forth, sometimes awkwardly, among three time frames: a drab, frigid winter that sees haunted-looking Mathieu (Jérémie Elkaïm) traveling alone to a French seaside town where he hides out at his family's vacation home; a languid summer at the same spot not so long ago, when Mathieu meets and falls for the strapping, more experienced Cédric (Stéphane Rideau); and a hazy period in between, during which Mathieu (then living with Cédric) lands in a psychiatric hospital after a suicide attempt.
Mindful of marketplace requirements, Lifshitz fulfills the lech quota and then some: moonlit wet-sand frolics, crotch-level camera angles, complimentary dick shots, even a fucking-in-the-dunes porn fantasy. When in doubt, the director reverts to opacity; he elides entirely the circumstances of the young lovers' breakup, which is a bit of a cheat given how persistently he circles it. (The presence of Rideau, star of Wild Reeds, can't help but invoke André Téchiné, who would have infused this hopscotching narrative with twice the urgency and candor.) But Mathieu's matter-of-factly depicted depression is at least in keeping with the sketchy portrait of his home life: contemptuous sister, pill-popping mother, absent father. And it's gratifying that the protagonist's homosexuality is almost beside the point. Come Undone's true subject is, simply enough, the perspective-warping enormity of first love, as preserved in a scrapbook of before-and-after snapshots. Squeamishly aware of the sentimental traps built into his scenario, Lifshitz embalms the initial seismic recognitions and the crashing descent to earth, bypassing almost all intervening dramas.
The Closet
Written and directed by Francis Veber
Opens June 29
Francis Veber's boilerplate farce The Closet, on the other hand, tumbles happily into every pitfall that lines its well-trodden path. Veber co-scripted that ageless histrionic fit of mistaken sexual identity, La Cage aux Folles (in which a flaming queen mirthfully attempts to decampify), and here basically inverts the premise. Daniel Auteuil stars as Pignon, a put-upon accountant at a condom factory who escapes retrenchment by pretending to be gayhis employers won't risk a potential scandal and consumer boycott. Table-turning hijinks duly follow, the most elaborate ones involving meathead colleague Gérard Depardieu. Auteuil deftly plays against type, but to what end? Three's Company reruns are on every night and they're free.

This time, they talked about the discrepancy between the state-mandated disclosure forms and the bank records that, in a trouble-free audit, would back up the numbers on those public documents.
Durkee and her employee explained that it was a mistake, but they weren't sure who at the firm made it because they didn't know who else had helped with the account.
Beauchamp was shocked. Durkee's firm had been home to a rogue accountant within the past five years, and Beauchamp said that for Durkee to not keep a close eye on each job didn't "make any type of sense at all."
Also in this second meeting, Durkee said she owed Horton some money, but she explained it was due to a mix-up involving credit card donations.
Credit cards? Beauchamp told her he saw no evidence Horton ever accepted credit card donations.
During the investigation, Beauchamp learned that Durkee charged her clients less than $5,000 a month for her services. That led to his next surprise.
After returning from Burbank, Beauchamp and his boss, Winuk, obtained a subpoena to look at 3 1/2 years of Durkee & Associates' bank records. It was an unusual move for the Fair Political Practices Commission, but given the circumstances, they felt it was necessary.
In September, the bank statements arrived. They showed unexpectedly large sums pouring into and out of the accounts. Beauchamp read through hundreds of pages of records. But to find out where the money had come from, he would need to look at individual checks.
Copies of those checks arrived in December.
"That's when we said, 'holy moley,' " Beauchamp said.
The checks were coming to Durkee from political campaigns, even federal ones – and Durkee was signing the checks herself.
"We weren't expecting the (amounts) of what we saw," Beauchamp said. "It was very substantial."
Beauchamp won't say how much money or name any other politicians involved – and the politicians are not accused of any wrongdoing in this case. But he did say that Durkee bounced "literally thousands" of checks and paid tens of thousands of dollars in overdraft fees.
"I don't know how many campaigns have overdraft (protection) because treasurers don't bounce checks," Beauchamp said.

Upon receiving my two replacement drum rollers and motor belt, I found a 3 minute video on YouTube that showed exactly how to replace my parts. Here is the link. http://www.google.com/url?q=http://www.youtube.com/watch%3Fv%3Duee5SL8MEqs&sa=U&ei=5NmeTo7QDIzEsQLn-PTMCQ&ved=0CCQQtwIwBA&usg=AFQjCNGuCAz1nM-_c_rdz0n0F8QC8CXVPw I removed the front panel, removed the old motor belt, and removed the tumbler. In looking at the current drum rollers, the center of one of them was completely disengaged from the roller, which was causing the loud noise. I used my snap ring pliers to remove the old rollers and put the new ones on. I then set the drum back in place and put the new motor belt on. This was a little tricky, but the video was a big help, as it showed exactly how to loop the belt around the pulley. Once the belt was on, I closed everything back up, and my dryer was as quiet as it has ever been. For anyone facing issues with their dryer, I recommend looking for these instructional videos to assist with your repair. They saved me hundreds of dollars.

In this course, photographer and author Ben Long details the features, controls, and options in the Canon 5D Mark III digital SLR. The course begins with an overview of what a digital SLR is and takes a tour of the basic camera components. Ben then discusses the basic camera operation: changing lenses, navigating the menus, shooting in automatic mode, reviewing and managing photos on the LCD screen, and transferring photos to a computer.
Next, the course introduces more advanced exposure options: program mode, exposure compensation, ISO adjustments, and more. After Ben briefly defines each option, he shows how to adjust it using the camera controls.
Ben also discusses white balance options, advanced metering and autofocus controls, flash, live view, and video shooting. The course ends with a chapter on maintenance, including sensor- and camera-cleaning and care tips.
For most situations, auto white balance is going to be your white balance of choice. The auto white balance mechanism on the Mark III is very good. However, if you're taking some shots with auto white balance, and you're noticing on the back of the screen that maybe the white balance is a little off, that your colors look a little strange, you can change to a different white balance. So, to change white balance, I press the white balance button, and now I've got the option to change white balance, and metering mode. But of course, because white balance is on the right side of the little dot, it's the rear dial.
So I can cycle through these by turning the command dial back here. From auto white balance, I get daylight, shade, cloudy, incandescent or tungsten, fluorescent, flash, a manual white balance setting, which we'll look at in a separate movie, and the option to dial in a specific white balance in degrees Kelvin, and then it cycles back to auto white balance. So let's say that I'm outside shooting in shade, and I take some pictures with auto white balance, and I am shooting a person, and I notice their skin just looks a little cold.
I could simply press this button, and drop down here to shade. In my experience, auto white balance on the Mark III really does a great job in pretty much all situations, except for shade, or maybe on a cloudy day, and I've got two different settings there: shade, and cloud. They are slightly different. Which one is going to be right for your situation is just something you are going to have to experiment with. Now, there are some other ways to change white balance. From the camera's menuing system, I can go here to the second shooting page, and there's a white balance entry; it shows where I'm currently set, and now I've got all of my different options arrayed here.
And I can cycle through them with the command dial, and actually get a label of what they are. So if you forget what the icons are, this is a way of getting a little feedback while you're selecting white balance. Now, white balance is measured in degrees Kelvin, and one thing that's nice about this display is it tells me the actual color temperature that's being dialed in by each of these settings. If I want, if I know the exact color temperature of the lights that I am using in degrees Kelvin, I can come over here to the K setting, and change the temperature specifically with the main dial up here, so I can dial in a very particular temperature.
When I get all of this configured the way that I want, I hit the Set button, and drop back out, and now you can see it's automatically changed me over to K, and that's going to be K at the temperature setting that I specified. Now, you want to be careful about judging color on the LCD screen. You don't want to get too picky about the colors that you're seeing, but the color on the LCD screen is good enough to judge a bad white balance, so keep an eye on that while you're shooting. Over time, you're going to get more experience into when you should change out of auto white balance, and when you should use a white balance preset.
One way to avoid this entire issue is simply to shoot RAW, because in RAW mode, you can change white balance after the fact. Even as a RAW shooter, though, it's a good idea to get white balance set correctly in camera, because it's going to save you a lot of post-processing time later.
There are currently no FAQs about Shooting with the Canon 5D Mark III.

Thirty years after its Los Angeles debut, writer John DiFusco's antiwar drama retains its relevance and power. Written collaboratively in the 1970s by DiFusco and seven other Vietnam vets, and directed by Christina Howard with insight and skill, it portrays the trauma of young military recruits plucked from mainstream American life and thust inadequately trained and poorly equipped into the nightmare of combat. Howard, displaying a metaphysical perspective, stages the production on a deep, cavernous proscenium. Prior to curtain, an intense, almost suffocating, scent of incense permeates the theater; meanwhile, for perhaps 20 minutes, the six "trainees" jog in military unison, the rhythms of their booted tread being ominous and haunting. When at last the performers do, individually, speak, it's in a darkness resourcefully illuminated by handheld flashlights; indeed, throughout the play, the lighting design (consultant Tiger Reel) registers as a quintessential element of the spectacle. The talents of Howard's adept ensemble collectively emerge in a sequence depicting the recruits' initial training under the command of an abusive drill sergeant (the terrific Tucker Smallwood), who addresses them as "maggots" while forcing them to undergo arbitrary punitive discipline. Once in Vietnam, the men medicate their brutalized psyches with dope, alcohol and infantile horseplay understandable given their tasks, which include sorting through body parts to try to match limbs with torsos. While not every component of this production is unimpeachable the sound design (Howard) and vocal sound track, effective in part, can be intrusive the imaginative production is compelling.

Random assignment
Random assignment is often confused with random sampling. Random assignment is how you assign your sample to different groups or treatments in your experiment whereas random sampling refers to how your sample is drawn from a population. When you randomly assign participants you have an experimental design by definition, which is often referred to as a "true" or "controlled" experiment.
You can randomly assign participants by assigning numbers randomly (e.g., computer-generated random numbers) or as participants walk through the door. With any approach you choose, make sure to establish how you plan to randomly assign your sample prior to the intervention or experiment.
You can also randomly assign larger units than participants or students to treatment and control groups such as teachers, sections, or campuses. However, each unit of random assignment has their strengths and weaknesses. Randomly assigning students is generally the most statistically efficient and powerful research design. However, this approach requires that some students in a class receive the intervention while the other students do not (although a wait-list control could help with this limitation), and overall, this is usually not practical. Randomly assigning teachers or sections to treatment and control groups is a powerful approach because it controls for teacher or class-related factors. However, fairness is usually the most often heard concern with this approach (e.g., one section of students receive an instructional intervention while the other section of students do not but both sections are evaluated the same). Randomly assigning campuses or similar departments across universities can eliminate many threats to the study such as generalizability and internal validity. However, cost, issues of fairness, and sample size concerns are some of the major limitations with this approach.

Claude Julien says the Canadiens aren't about to mess with these big, bad Bruins
|04.25.11 at 5:43 pm ET
Before taking his team north for a Game 6 showdown with the Canadiens Tuesday night at Bell Centre, Bruins coach Claude Julien said he is fairly condifident that the Canadiens won't engage the Bruins in a physical battle because they would likely lose that kind of game.
"I think both teams realize that discipline is a big factor in this series," Julien said. "And when you look at last game, I think again, both teams had 30-plus hits. And it's not like it's not a hitting series, but it's not a dirty one. And I think there is a lot of hate probably between the two teams but there is also a lot of respect. And we know that we respect their offense and their power play and we certainly don't want to give them that advantage. And I think that they respect that if they get into a physical situation with us, they are probably not going to win that one."
The Bruins lead the best-of-7 Eastern quarterfinal series, 3-2, needing just one more win to advance to the second round for the third straight year. Julien said the key Tuesday night is for the Bruins to match the Canadiens' desperation with determination.
"I think that's been something we've had to really adjust to in this series, is making sure we don't give them an early lead," Julien said. "But when they are in that situation I think they are playing out of desperation, they are playing for their lives, you have to play that game with determination and that's the difference. For us it's about determination, for them it's about desperation and you have to hope that the determination is better than their desperation. It's as simple as that."
If the Bruins lose Tuesday, they will have one final chance on Wednesday in Game 7 at TD Garden to close out the Canadiens.

The Storm Worm that has been driving security folks up the wall recently has reached a point where it is much more powerful than any supercomputer out there. It has become the largest zombified PC grid in history, which offers the creator an incredible amount of raw power to do whatever.. It looks like they are playing with it now, so they may well have an idea what it is they want to do. Check out more about this story at Slashdot.

Sport is a big part of life in Australia. Huge, in fact. And it's even more of a big deal in Melbourne. This is where the Melbourne Cup (one of the world's most famous horse races) takes place, it's where the Australian Open (tennis) is held, and it's where the world's fastest drivers flock to year after year for the Australian Grand Prix. But unquestionably, the most important stadium in Melbourne is the Melbourne Cricket Ground, better known as the MCG.
Today I was lucky enough to see the MCG empty, in all its glory. There's no doubt about it, it's an amazing stadium. This was the premier stadium during the 1956 Olympic Games which were held here, along with the 2006 Commonwealth Games.
While it's called the Melbourne 'Cricket' Ground, the country's famous Australian Rules Football also takes place here. The season begins in April and ends in October, so unfortunately I didn't catch a game. I still got to appreciate it though, along with having a look at the National Sports Museum – a great museum which documents the country's most famous sports players and teams, and one with lots of hands-on stuff.

Djokovic's career is far from over and you are comparing him to retired players who you are evaluating based on their finished achievements. Djokovic is quite likely to end up as a better clay courter than Panatta and Vilas, if he wins atleast 1 RG he almost certainly will be. Djokovic at RG has only lost to Nadal and once to Federer every year since 2006 except for one. Vilas at RG lost to a slew of weaker players, was blown out by Vilas and lost to a 17 year old Wilander in 2 of his finals, and won his RG title in a joke boycotted year where his final opponent was Gottfried. Panatta is not considered some super great clay courter and never was, just a tough matchup for Borg. I would be willing to bet money Djokovic atleast 5 different years wins RG with Vilas's 77 draw, his 2007-2012 version in 1977-1982 has a better RG record overall than Vilas, and so on.
No Lendl in 1981 and Mickey Mouse tournament hoarder Vilas is not tougher competition on clay than years of Federer and Djokovic.
Djokovic better than Vilas on clay ? I can't believe it. Vilas won 45 tournaments on clay (this is the record), won 2 Grand Slams on clay (FO and USO) and all major tournaments on this surface (Rome, Madrid, Monte-Carlo, Hamburg ...). I don't think FO 77 was a joke. Vilas beated Fibak, Ramirez, and Gottfried, who were top ten players (+ Stan Smith, a Grand Slam winner). Gottfried was n°4 at that time, and beated Borg in the beginning of the year. In USO, on clay, Vilas beated Higueras, Solomon and Connors. I think Vilas is much much better than Djoko on clay.

Latest Geology of Venus Stories
On Earth, frost is known as a thin, delicate icy covering of frozen water that forms when temperatures dip below a certain point. However, frost on Venus may be much different – possibly made not of frozen water, but from heavy metals like cadmium and mercury.
The European Space Agency's (ESA) Venus Express spacecraft has revealed the winds on the second planet from the Sun have been getting faster over the last six years.
ESA's Venus Express spacecraft has discovered that our cloud-covered neighbor spins a little slower than previously measured. Peering through the dense atmosphere in the infrared, the orbiter found surface features were not quite where they should be.
For the next few months, Venus will be softly resplendent in the evening sky, a treat for stargazers – but looks can be deceiving.
Observations by the European Space Agency's Venus Express mission have provided strong new evidence that the solar wind has stripped away significant quantities of water from Earth's twin planet.
An unusual bright spot that has shown up in the clouds on Venus is mystifying astronomers.
Venus Express has charted the first map of Venus's southern hemisphere at infrared wavelengths.
Venus is a planet similar in size to the Earth. Nevertheless, it is quite different in other aspects. On the one hand, it spins very slowly on its axis, taking 224 terrestrial days and, moreover, it does so in the opposite direction to that of our planet, i.e. from East to West.
As ESA's Venus Express orbits our sister planet, new images of the cloud structure of one of the most enigmatic atmospheres of the Solar System reveal brand-new details.
Latest Geology of Venus Reference Libraries
The Planet Venus is the second planet from the sun. It is often called the evening star or morning star and is brighter than any object in the sky except the sun and the moon. Because its orbit lies between the sun and the orbit of the earth, Venus passes through phases like those of the moon, varying from a large bright crescent when the planet is near inferior conjunction (nearest the earth) to a smaller silvery disk when it is at superior conjunction (farthest from the earth).

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. — Despite a disappointing run in this past weekend's Food Lion South Atlantic Conference Softball Championship, the Lady Railsplitters remained at No.8 in the latest NCAA Southeast Region ranking, retaining the possibility of earning an at-large selection to the NCAA Tournament.
Lincoln Memorial (26-17) entered the SAC Softball Championship as the five seed after setting the program record for league victories with 12, but losses to fourth-seeded Tusculum and top-seeded Lenoir-Rhyne eliminated the Lady Railsplitters early. But, that didn't alter the Lady Railsplitters' regional ranking as they remained at No.8 with a 23-17 mark against in-region opponents.
The NCAA Southeast Region is comprised of the South Atlantic Conference, the Peach Belt Conference and Conference Carolinas with the top eight teams, selected by the Southeast Region committee, earning a spot in the Southeast Regional field. Each of the conference tournament winners collect automatic bids to the NCAA Tournament, while there remain five at-large bids up for grabs.
The Lady Railsplitters boast wins over five teams represented in the region rankings, headlined by an 8-6 triumph against top-ranked and No.4 nationally North Georgia on February 17 as well as a 6-2 win over second-ranked and No.16 nationally Anderson, winners of the Food Lion SAC Championship. Lincoln Memorial also claims a 3-1 win over Lenoir-Rhyne, the fifth-ranked team in the region and the 24th-ranked squad in the nation.
Lincoln Memorial will learn its postseason fate via a live selection show hosted on NCAA.com at 10 a.m. on Monday.
Lady Railsplitter senior outfielder Brianna Mulkey has been named to the CoSIDA/Capital One Academic All-District III Softball Team, officials with the College Sports Information Directors of America announced on Thursday.
Mulkey is only the fourth player in the history of the LMU softball program to earn the nod for the Academic All-District Team and the first to do so since Meghan LaFevor in 2012. Former Lady Railsplitters Jenny Lowe and Nikki Miller also garnered that distinction in 2000.
Mulkey has excelled both in the classroom and on the field this season as she compiled a 3.42 grade-point average while completing her undergraduate degree in Kinesiology. All the while, she was also named to the All-South Atlantic Conference first team and the Female Athlete of the Year at the annual LMU Athletics Banquet after leading the Lady Railsplitters in nearly every offensive category. The Kettering, Ohio native batted .412 (seventh-highest in school history) with 54 hits, 19 stolen bases and a .510 on-base percentage (second-highest in school history).
By all accounts, Mulkey leaves Lincoln Memorial as one of the best to ever wear the Blue and Gray. She ranks first in the school's career history for stolen bases with 119 (fifth in South Atlantic Conference history), third with 132 runs scored (11th in SAC history), fourth in hits with 214, eighth with a lifetime .358 batting average and eighth with a career .422 on-base percentage. Mulkey is one of only eight players total between the LMU baseball and softball teams to accumulate more than 200 career hits.
With her selection to the All-District Team, Mulkey will advance to the CoSIDA/Capital One Academic All-America ballot. The voting period for the All-America ballot begins on May 6.

DETROIT — Ford Motor Co. said Tuesday it sold a record 11,600 natural gas vehicles last year, more than four times the number it sold two years ago.
It's the latest sign that natural gas is making inroads as a transportation fuel, particularly for truck fleets, buses and taxis. The consumer market is tougher to crack, but sales are gaining there as well.
Natural gas is cheap and plentiful in the United States after a spike in production that began in the middle of last decade. At the same time, the price of gasoline and diesel fuel has jumped more than 30 percent.
That makes natural gas — which also emits fewer greenhouse gases — an increasingly attractive option for truck companies and municipalities.
But while natural gas might be a good choice for snow plows and trash trucks, which go relatively short distances and can refuel at city-owned pumps, it's a tougher call for ordinary consumers. Natural gas cars cost more and there are few public places to refuel them. Those issues need to be addressed if the vehicles are to significantly boost their share of the auto market, which is currently less than 1 percent.
General Motors Co. and Chrysler Group recently added natural gas pickups to their lineups. Honda Motor Co. is seeing more interest in its natural gas Civic — with record U.S. sales of nearly 2,000 last year — and industry experts expect more offerings for regular buyers in the next year or two.
Natural gas vehicles aren't new. Ford's previous peak sales, of 5,491, were in 2001. But they fell out of favor later that decade when the price of natural gas spiked. Ford stopped selling natural gas vehicles in 2004 and didn't start making them again until 2009.
During those five years, new technology unlocked vast reserves of natural gas in deep rock formations, creating a glut that has depressed prices. Compressed natural gas — or CNG — now costs between $1.79 to $3.49 per gallon in the United States depending on the location, compared with an average of $3.74 for gasoline and $4.12 for diesel, according to Clean Energy, which operates natural gas fueling stations, and AAA.
It's even cheaper for corporate or government buyers, who might pay as little as 80 cents per gallon for their natural gas, according to CNG Now, an industry lobbying group.

If they use adduser, it will abort with an error if a user with the given name already exists. If such happens, I wouldn't mind a debconf prompt asking me if I'd prefer using a different username. However, the trend is to make daemons run under their very own UID - I don't want to get asked for usernames a dozen times during the installation.

Join Muscle Hunks
Heads Up!
This review is outdated. Information may be inaccurate.
This review is outdated. Information may be inaccurate.
Do you like massive musclemen? Do giant biceps, pulsating pecs, thick thighs and powerful abs make you want to grab your naughty bits and work them hard and fast? Then you definitely need to check out Muscle Hunks.
These nude dudes on MuscleHunks have the bods of mythological gods. We're talking huge frames totally pumped with awe-inspiring muscles and in many cases something else that's quite a healthy size. Yes, that's right. They've managed to find bodybuilders whose man junk fills out their shorts rather nicely.
Navigating this site wasn't the easiest task. There aren't any separate sections for pictures and videos, which always kind of burns my buns. Since not all the models have a photo set, I had to click through the entire model index of 154 men to see who had one. In doing so, I noticed that the VOD link and the DVD store links don't work depending on what page you click them from. Well, they work, but they take you to the landing page of the site. And that's not where I want to be when all these drool-worthy hunks are sitting inside wearing barely anything but a smile.
You get around 275 videos and they give you mostly average-quality playback. The vids are a mix of short standalone scenes and longer shoots split into several clips. You can stream the flicks in Flash or save them in Flash, QuickTime and Windows Media formats. You can save the good-looking pics one by one, or at least there's a link that claims you can. There are around 125 photo sets and they have some decent images. I clicked it and was once again taken to the landing page.
It's all about muscle worship in these shoots, but they take it up and down a few notches depending on which one you see. You might see some non-nude bodybuilding poses in a swimsuit or underwear that will tease and please you without going too far. However, many of these men like to pull down their undies to moon you with their glorious gluteus maximus.
Others are willing to take it all off, so you see every inch of their toned bods and thick, juicy rods. Some studs will not only oil up their muscular physiques, but they'll also lube up their cocks and masturbate until they reach the cream-covered peak of perfection. These fellows have the types of bodies that make them specimens worth studying carefully. I'm not always into the extreme bodybuilding that gives a man a lot of visible veins and striation of muscle strands. Still, these men remain impressive and physically intimidating.
Updates arrive between one and three times a month. There is a link to a live webcam site featuring some of these hunks, but if you want more than a free public chat with them, you'll have to pay per-minute rates for a private one-on-one encounter. There's also MHLive and these look like scheduled live shows in which some of the models perform for you. The studs on Muscle Hunks will blow your mind if you like your muscles super-sized and want a dick that seems proportionate.
