A collection of original and beautiful lock screens
Sparky's is a collection of lock screens for your Android, beautifully designed and easily changeable with a couple of taps. Themes are pretty original, ranging from doughnuts to cinema tickets, and every one has its own way to work. Some are funny, others are elegant instead, but all look clean and neat.
It's also appreciated the chance to test a lock screen before actually setting it up. Likewise, a brief settings menu allows to turn on and off the unlock sound, choose time settings between 12 and 24h modes and hide or unhide the status bar. As you can see, a few yet useful options to customize your unlocker.
Lastly, your new unlock screen will show lost calls and incoming messages and allows one-gesture access to them. Sparky Lock Screen is an example about how to easily customize an Android device in a useful way without flashy or complex "3D retro-futuristic-barroque multi-faceted" apps.
You can check the free version if you wish and test the first two of the available unlock screens.

Sparky Lock Screen - FAQ
>Why do I experience a delay sometimes before the lock screen appears?
Android OS imposes a 5 second delay to launch a screen from a background service after pressing HOME key.
So if you press HOME and immediately turns off the screen and then turn it on before the 5 seconds expires there will be a delay before launching the lock screen. This is a rare situation and the only scenario where there is a delay.
>I want more themes, is it possible?
Sure, we are working on many new themes and features. Please suggest new themes on email@example.com.
- Fixed clock issues on some themes when running on Kit Kat
- Added New Themes: Winter and Green Cube!
- Added Italian language support.
- Fixed issue with Wind Queen not sliding to shortcuts sometimes.
- Fixed random crash on some phone models.
Some lists where this application appears: Reviewed by Peter Warrior.
It used to show mail count and now it doesn't...
The best.
Need to be able to set the message app message shortcut opens. It would also be nice to hide the notification.
Pretty auesome
Terrible. Doesn't show the correct time or notifications and you can't even customize the wallpapers or add a password. Not worth a single penny.
So far so good. .
I love the concept and was looking around for a nice Lock Screen. I have a LG2 and after I unlock the screen that you provided, I get the default lock screen that came with the phone. I see the notification in the tray above. Is there something that I am doing wrong? 5 rating if I can figure this one out!

But two trys and no Joy. INVERTED NORMALS! Q: Can rogue geometry inside the Mesh (free floating faces ect) cause a Normals problem, Or will it pick up as a Non Manifold error first. In Max there is a normal edit modifier but it will not work Globally if you have an Editable Mesh as your object. So is Blender an option. Can I turn my mesh into something else export it and re-import it. Sifting through every poly just is not an option. Thanks to anyone who can point me to a solution.]]> ANIMEMI 2009-04-02T17:42:15-00:00 Re: 3D Max - inverted normals http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=3721&th=813#msg_3721 This should at least pick up any floating faces. ]]> virtox 2009-04-02T22:02:13-00:00 Re: 3D Max - inverted normals http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=3724&th=813#msg_3724 Ah I have to admit I know the bare essentials of 3Dmax. Well I did not know about the STL check modifier. I will have a look at the models and use it. Q: Face normals or vertex normals. Do both matter. (I only knew about face normals, then I used the edit normal modifier it only shows the vertex normals). I used th STL modifier and it did find a slew of errors. Got rid of a spike. It gave me a no errors. My model still will not pass. So I must actually have inverted normals. Thanks for the tip. Note: 3D max 9]]> ANIMEMI 2009-04-03T01:50:25-00:00 Re: 3D Max - inverted normals http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=3730&th=813#msg_3730 I don't understand the problems with the normal modifier or edit mesh ? In an editable mesh you can select all faces, tick the show normals box, and under surface properties is a unify normals button. Both work only on selected faces. The normal modifier should work perfectly on face normals. Just make sure the underlying stack has no active subselection, or it will only work on those. I just saw there is also a seperate "edit normals" as opposed to the "normals" modifier. With a different kind of vertex normal Max is such a logical app, ahum.. From the max help, always your friend :)The Edit_Normals modifier lets the user edit the normal vectors used for realtime rendering of Editable Poly objects. So I don't think it is the tool for STL, since it pertains to rendertime polygon smoothing, which shapeways doesn't do, only in the preview java applet. And since the unify normals seem to work only on polygons compared to its (selected) neighbours, it ususally best to have them all taken into account by selecting all. Or if you want, I could have a look at your model. ]]> virtox 2009-04-03T11:06:49-00:00 ITS PRINTABLE! http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=3736&th=813#msg_3736 The STL check was the thing. at first it behaved a bit eratically. As you so kindly offered to look at the mesh I thought I ought to have one last try myself. I noticed the bounding box was much larger than the object. I think a single vertex was the cause. I removed it and the STL check behaved itself. I then corrected just over 120 errors and ..well. BTW I was! trying to use the EDIT NORMALS modifier so that was a wrong turn, so thanks for your clarification on that. I am glad I tested this part first I hope I can modify the rest with only a few more bumbles. ]]> ANIMEMI 2009-04-03T14:35:38-00:00

Guest photographer John Brandt took today's photo of a rather foggy park the other day. He also sent more photos of some downed trees at the park I will be posting, once my brain gets into gear so I can think long enough to organize the post, so that could be some time next year. 😉 Thanks, John!

Construction At The Jordan Bridge
Today we have a joint effort between me (the photo above) and guest photographer John Brandt (the photos below). There is construction going on at the Jordan Bridge, a covered bridge at Pioneer Park. They're fixing something or other (I'm so good with details) to make it not fall down and go boom.
Click on the thumbnails below to be taken to John's Flickr page for each photo. And thanks to John for the photos and for the post idea.
The Jordan Bridge is closed for some much needed repairs (read the Statesman Journal's article about it here). Guest photographer John Brandt took this picture of the fence and sign blocking traffic until it has been fixed. It's sad to have it blocked since so many people use it each day, so I hope it gets fixed soon.
Thanks, John.
Secret Window
Guest photographer John Brandt found this window somewhere in town, but he's not saying where. But he offered up this by way of a clue:
It's visible from a city sidewalk along a city street and it has to be within a twenty minute walk from where I live because that's my personal "Morning Stayton" Flickr set criteria.
That narrows it down to pretty much anywhere in town, but I would guess it's somewhere in the northeastern section. Or not. Thanks, John.
Wilderness Park Trail
Frost Ditch
Guest photographer John Brandt took this pretty photo of the poetically-named Stayton Ditch on a cold, frosty day last month. Thanks, John!
Ice On The Water
Guest photographer John Brandt caught this cool (and cold) scene in Wilderness Park recently. His description:
Taken at the pond on the east end of Wilderness Park. The pond is an old gravel extraction barrow pit. I was told it had been operated by one of the Staytons. I think his name was Cliff but that could be wrong.
The things you learn, eh? Thanks, John!

Stayton Ditch at the Florence Street Pedestrian Bridge
The Lean-To Before It Was Gone-To
Yesterday, I posted a photo by Jeff Shultz showing a building on 2nd Ave. with a recently removed side structure. I lamented not having photographed it before it was torn down.
Fortunately, guest photographer John Brandt has a picture of it, so here it is for today's post. You can see how rickety it was. Frankly, it's surprising it lasted as long as it did.
Be sure to click on the image to go to its Flickr page, where John's posted a fair bit of interesting information about the building. Thanks, John!

A visit from an Internet guru has the entrepreneurial crowd at Virginia Tech abuzz. Alexis Ohanian, the founder of Reddit, which people call 'the front page of the internet,' will speak at the University Sunday.
Alexis Ohanian graduated from The University of Virginia but he wanted to make a point of speaking at Virginia Tech on his book tour, because he knew about the community of current and future technology entrepreneurs here. Drew Stegmeier, past president of the Entrepreneurs club at tech, is one of them.
There's been a lot of talk about "drones," remote controlled aircraft which fly with no pilot on board. But drones are being used for more than military operations.
A scientist at Virginia Tech has been named one of Popular Science's 'Brilliant Ten for 2013" for using them to study micro organisms in the atmosphere, which can have a huge impact on what goes on, on the ground.
State lawmakers have been learning more about how the Virginia Information Technologies Agency protects and oversees the Commonwealth's most sensitive databases.
They're finding out that while Medicaid expansion is supposed to help benefit those who need services, the state might not be prepared for the influx of data the expansion would bring with it.
Chief Information Officer Sam Nixon tells the Joint Legislative Audit and Review Commission that potential vulnerabilities always exist within the system.
Many pilots learned how to fly and surgeons how to make incisions by engaging in some type of "modeling and simulation" program developed by a group of engineers.
But while "modeling and simulation" is now becoming its own profession, in Virginia few schools provide a course of study needed to train and retain these specialized engineers.
Researchers at Virginia Tech have come up with a plan for a new kind of helmet for construction workers that can monitor their exposure to carbon monoxide and warn them before it becomes dangerous.
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning kills hundreds of Americans each year and sends thousands more to the hospital. Construction workers face an especially high risk because they often work in enclosed spaces where exhaust from gasoline-powered hand tools can build up fast.

Super songwriter turned mega R&B artist Ne-Yo returns with the hot track, Make It Work, from his upcoming sophomore release, Because of You. Make It Work is a mid-tempo number that incorporates everything that his audience has come to love about Ne-Yo. His smooth vocals are showcased superbly alongside a beautiful melody; which just so happens to be produced by Ne-Yo himself. The chorus is perfectly balanced: very catchy and easy to sing along to without overpowering the rest of the verses. This song is a testament to what a great songwriter/singer Ne-Yo is, and with more material like this there won't be any concern over the dreaded sophomore jinx.

Kate Mayer (Leslie Hope, 24) has a seemingly perfect existence as a suburban wife and mother. But her life is about to take a drastic - and welcome - detour when she decides, for the first time, to think for herself, her future, and her options.
Kate is rapidly approaching forty, and she's afraid. She was raised to believe that all that was important was trying to be the perfect wife to her husband, Jack (D.W. Moffett, Traffic), the ideal mother to her children, Samantha (Alison Pill, Life with Judy Garland) and David, and the selfless daughter to her mother, Dorothy. But after one too many arguments with her husband, and even worse, another night of deafening silence, Kate gathers the courage to ask for a separation. Now, Kate must accept the role of a single mother - alone, without skills, a job, or a spouse.

Voss v. Knotts et al. -
In a concise, unpublished decision, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit affirmed a district court's grant of summary judgment in favor of the defendants in a copyright suit on the grounds that the plaintiff lacked standing. Voss v. Knotts et al., Case No. 12-56168 (9th Cir., Apr. 8, 2014) (per curiam).
In his bankruptcy schedules, the plaintiff failed to list the copyright at issue in the case. Thus, the 9th Circuit agreed with the district court and determined that the bankruptcy estate owned the copyright and plaintiff lacked standing to bring the action. The Court found there was "no basis" to substitute in the bankruptcy estate on appeal, and reasoned that "a substitution of parties would not change the fact that the district court did not err" in its holding.

Hi Friends,
I am proud to announce the launch of a brand new site for Malayalam movies http://www.keralamovies.com
We started this site because for a long time Malayalam has been languishing under the 'other desi movies' section in other sites and we felt that Malayalam deserved its own dedicated ******* site, its own community & its own home.
We are not in 'competition' with any other site out there, but rather we believe that everyone deserves their place under the sun. We aim to make this the friendliest site ever.
Please support us in this humble venture and help make KM a success. Please spread the word around that finally Malayalees have their own quality site.

Join Big Tit Porn Pass
Heads Up!
This review is outdated. Information may be inaccurate.
This review is outdated. Information may be inaccurate.
Big tits. Everybody loves them and it's easy to see why. On Big Tit Porn Pass, you get to enjoy one video after another of super-stacked stars from the world of pornography engaging in all sorts of softcore, hardcore and fetish activities. Calling all fans of fun bags, this is the review you should be reading.
With titles like "Topless Take Down" and "Buried In Tits," it's obvious that there's a boob-centric point of view going on at BigTitPornPass. There are about 11,019 scenes taken from 919 DVDs. Well-known studios like Legend and Combat Zone are represented, as well as stars like Eva Angelina, Rayveness, Bree Olson and Gianna Michaels.
The scenes can be streamed on an embedded Flash player and downloaded in a few MP4 formats, with the highest one offering good-quality playback. For preview purposes, every scene has a 100-word description that touches on what happens, along with a few stills pulled from the video.
The flicks all feature giant juggs, but they're actually quite varied aside from that. Anal, POV, BDSM, double penetration, reality and feature films can all be found here. They include a search engine that makes finding what you're looking for a little easier. There's also a model index with a number of filters, keywords and sorting options to help you locate the ladies you want to see.
You also have access to 4,579 sets of pictures. You can view them in a couple of sizes and save them in Zip files. There are all sorts of spreads to delight you, from busty black beauties sharing a dick to chesty chicks posing by themselves. It looks like updates are about nine times a month at the moment.
Apart from all this boobalicious material, there are thousands of other DVDs from all kinds of niches and there are also "channels" to peruse, like Big Tits Like Big Dicks, My MILF Boss, XXX At Work and Not So Innocent Teens. Although not all Mega Site Pass websites are focused on big boobs, you will most certainly find some buxom pornstars roaming around on them.
Big Tit Porn Pass stays true to its premise and comes through with enjoyable high-quality (but nonexclusive) action. There's enough on the site to keep you occupied for some time and when you throw in the bonuses, you're looking at a treasure trove of big-tit delights.
* Please include a pro and a con about the site. Balance is essential in making a comment worthwhile. Scores without comments will be deleted.
* Watch out for ratings of zero and 100. In our opinion, there is no such thing as a site that is absolutely perfect or completely worthless.

For DePodesta to succeed somewhere, he'll need ownership that supports him fully, something he obviously didn't get in L.A. Initially, he seemed just what McCourt needed -- someone who could get results while cutting the payroll, necessary because of all the money McCourt borrowed to buy the team. But McCourt was, alas, just another guy in it for the image boost. If everything about your franchise is PR, then simply being a whipping boy in the media is enough to get a GM fired, whether or not the whipping was deserved.
There's one other thing DePodesta will need. Overcoming the ingrained resistance within baseball to Full Moneyball requires a lot of internal educating and, if necessary, force. Both Sandy Alderson (ex-Marine) and Billy Beane (ex-major leaguer who can throw temper tantrums with the best) were able to bend the A's to their will. DePodesta didn't, or couldn't, in L.A. That's something HE must do in his next job. You can't lead if no one's following.

It's funny reading the YouTube comments for this music video. Kids are saying "Is this Chris Carrabba's (Dashboard Confessional) new band?" Sigh, no it's his old band and it's beyond me how they've never heard of Further Seems Forever. They're only one of the most influential bands in the pop-punk/post-hardcore scene. Anyway, 'So Cold' is the first single from their upcoming comeback album Penny Black.

From Our Editors
The family-owned and operated Slidell eatery offers a seasonal menu of fresh Cajun and Creole cuisine to brighten bored palates. Start with a ?colossal? lump-crab-meat salad with fresh veggies and a garlic-cocktail vinaigrette ($18) before moving on to one of Joyce and Darnell's signature entrees. The seared maple-leaf duck breast ($17) recalls the breeze over Caribbean waters, dressed atop a hammock of tropical couscous with a port-wine demi-glace. The seafood pasta (saut?ed shrimp, crawfish, scallops, and crab meat tossed with veggies in an asiago cream over orchiette, $18) and succulent grilled filet mignon (with au-gratin potatoes and a crab-and-brie cream, $24) will tempt seafood-eating land mammals and land-loving mermaids alike. Make any meal or choral performance end on a happy note with praline bread pudding swimming in cr?me anglaise ($6) or a spiced Guinness cake with cranberry compote and a glistening mound of vanilla-bean ice cream ($6). Nestled in a handsome house adorned with wreathes and trees, the breezy eatery offers an upscale and comfortable dining experience, which makes it an ideal setting for your next marriage proposal or dramatic interruption of a marriage proposal in progress. Call ahead for a reservation.

Worried to 'jinx' it...
- I've always heard that what the majority of people think you're having, it'll be the opposite. As soon as I heard the heartbeat, I just 'knew' my baby was a girl. Then we told everyone, and everyone said "I'm hoping you have a girl", or "you're definitely having a girl". Of course, I thought that was going to jinx it... I'd have a boy (as long as the baby's healthy, it doesn't matter what the sex is, but I was slightly hoping for a girl). So when I went for an ultrasound at 15 1/2 weeks, the sonographer announced to everyone (me, my mom, the dad, and big brother) that she'd place her bet it was a girl (although we're having another U/S tomorrow). Except for craving salty and spicy, and my feet not being colder than normal, I've conformed to every other old-wives tale there is... heart rate, how I'm carrying, morning sickness, etc, etc, etc... Even the Chinese Gender Predictor (once I found out the month of conception, NOT LMP) was dead-on! We all can't wait to see her!
- —Guest jlynec
My Mom Waited a Long Time
- We, at the time we were married for three years and every time we visited my parents the quest from my mom was "are you pregnant yet". I would say no. We were not trying at all. Then came the day of a visit that I was pregnant. I did not tell my mom right away, and for the VERY first time she did not ask. I walked into her bedroom with a video camera...Yeh, you guessed it. As I turned the corner I said, "Mom, aren't you supposed to be happy that I am pregnant?" Nothing on earth was more funny then seeing my mom look at me as if she were going to faint. She stopped what she was doing and said "are you really" in the most quiet voice. Then I said yes, that it was only a few weeks. She then said, "Don't joke with me, are you really pregnant?" I once again said yes. She then said (very quietly), "Don't joke about this." The camera is still going. I said I went to the doctor and he confirmed it. She then jumps out of bed and went ABSOLUTELY CRAZY! Well, we had a girl!!
- —Guest Worth the Wait
3 sons are a BLESSING!!
- This is my third pregnancy and I have to say, the morning sickness was worse than ever. I actually felt the baby move as early as 3.5 months and he's still very active. I am 20 weeks and had my ultrasound, as you can read from my title, it's a BOY! We are all over joyed at the news and I am so looking forward to meeting him.
- —Guest MamaBee
Moms Know Everything
- When my period was a day late I started to freak out making up all these reasons why I could possibly be late. Two days later I still didn't take a test, I went and talked to my mom, she was guessing why I wanted to talk to her and when she said I bet your pregnant, I started to cry, she jumped off the treadmill and gave me a big hug and said your having a girl. So when the day came and mom took me to the hospital, and a few hours later my boyfriend showed up (he had go to NYC for a few days) our beautiful daughter came into our world!
- —Guest Kenzy
It is truley a myth!
- My baby maintained a heartbeat over 140 (actually 154 at 20 weeks) and its a active little boy! Lol. I had a little morning sickness, very tired in my first trimester, my hair was HORRIBLE! It actually broke off. I craved salty snacks vs sweet snacks and cold items like fruit, yogurt and juice. Plus when I started feeling flutters, I felt him BELOW my belly button.
- —Guest BrownHoneyInSC
Could never hide it from me!
- With both of my babies I saw the sex on the ultrasound before the tech was even ready to show us. The first time I said, " a penis! I see a penis!" and with this one I yelled, "3 lines! I see 3 lines!" The tech tried to say the she was not so sure but after a moment she pretty much agreed. Now looking at the picture it is soooo obvious. I enjoyed being the first person on earth to know what I was having, even if only for a moment.
- —Guest Lynda
gender prediction
- I have two boys, 4 and 5, with both pregnancies I was really sick, 1st one bed ridden 2nd a bit better. But now I'm pregnant again for the 3rd time with not much sickness at all but my skin is horrible and I'm very lazy, so I'm hoping its a girl.
- —Guest marina
All mixed up
- My first one was a girl, but ALL the old wives tales would have said it was going to be a boy. 120s heart rate, carrying low and all out front, hair was perfect every day, I wanted salty things...etc. This time the heart rate is in the 170s and EVERYTHING is completely different. Who knows what it will be this time.
- —Guest E
Sex of baby
- My baby's heartbeat was 163 and we just found out it's a boy.
- —Guest amber
I just knew
- With my first pregnancy as soon as I found out I was prego I immediately just felt it was a boy. My second was the same as soon as I found out I just felt it was a boy. Both were VERY active in the womb... this pregnancy, well it is COMPLETELY different from the first 2, I feel like it is a girl, I'm sure it is a girl, I will let y'all know when I find out if my FEELING is right!
- —Guest Amber
Daddy to be knew it was a Boy....
- Well This is our first Child, and as a newly wedded couple it was kinda a dream to actually start a family of my own. Well when my husband had found out that I was pregnant a few months before our second wedding any. He said with a big smile we are having a boy. Me I kinda figured it because during the first trimester I didn't crave any chocolate I just wanted things that I could put salt on. I had asked a lot of my co-workers what they thought I was having and some said "you're having a girl." and a lot of them said "it's a boy." Well I did the online gender quizzes and almost all of them came up as boy a few said girl. So I got to find out my 19 week of my pregnancy and to my shock and his happiness it was a boy. I cried when those little words pop up on the screen that states if its a boy or girl, and our first child is a "proud Little boy". People wanted to know why I wanted to find out, and I tell them because I want to call my little one by their name.
- —Guest Erin Dooley
Surprise surprise
- I found out my second child would be a girl at 20 weeks. I was sooo excited. We already had a boy and she would be the first girl on both sides of the family.... yeah so delivery day..... after delivering before I can even see... My husband says.... errr that's not a girl! What can I say! I am definitely a boy mom! I was not crushed... LOL so I don't trust anything until its out!
- —Guest Cymfa
I found out around 10 wks.
- When I was 10 weeks pregnant I purchased an intelligender test from my local Walgreens for around $30. I had to ask a manager about it because they keep them in the back to cut down on shoplifting. It said I was having a girl. At my 20 wk ultrasound it was confirmed that it was indeed a little girl. I have a 11yr old son & a 7 yr old son. My 16 yr old adopted daughter was so happy that she was finally getting a sister.
- —Guest Mrs. Messer
Shower surprise
- Me and my fiance did the envelope thing and then gave it our mothers. We found what we were having at our baby shower. It was so much fun. Cause the first few things were neutral, so we didn't know yet. But also we knew that we were having a little boy cause both of us had dreams for months about a little boy
- —Guest kiddiehawkteacher
Heart rate
- I've always heard that if the heart rate is below 140 bpm than it's a boy if its above it's a girl. My first daughter was 170 bpm, my son was 150 bpm so I don't know about that. Girls are more active than boys I've heard too.

very weird phenomenon with external display
Hey all, I've been having a very strange problem with my external display on my Black C2D Macbook. My external display is a Samsung 226CW and I am using CS3.
Here is the Issue:
When I am editing a file in Photoshop on my macbook screen, the colors appear as they are supposed to (ie as they appear on other PCs and on print material) however, when I go to load those same files while using PS on my external monitor, the colors look washed out. I know its not the physical monitor itself because colors in programs outside of photoshop look identical (if not better on the external) to the macbook screen. It is a problem with photoshop. Whats very strange is if I load the file on my macbook screen, and then plug in my external display while the file is up on the desktop, I can see the normal colors on the external display. If I close down the file on my external display and open it again, however, the colors are back to the faded version. I know its not the monitor itself because I can take screen shots of the effect and look at them on the external monitor. I imagine it must be some quirk with my settings which handle external displays, but what? Either way, this phenomenon has me clueless.
Let me know what you guys think! Any help would be greatly appreciated!

have you calibrated your MacBook's display and/or external display? Have you tried the color sync utility (applications -> utilities -> color sync utility)? I'm grasping at straws here, but I know I've seen this before I just can't remember what caused it!
Okay well here's a test. Open the file on your external display in preview. Is the color still washed out? That would narrow it down to either a PS issue or a Mac issue at least.

wow. weird. BTW: the washed out one looks better anyway

Regarding the washed out one looking better, on my Macbook screen, the "washed out" looks normal and the "normal" looks over saturated/over hued, while on my external monitor's screen, the "normal" one looks normal and the washed out looks washed out.
Opening them up in preview on the external display shows the washed out and the normal. This makes me think it has to do with Apple's color, not PS.
Very strange. I'm wondering if it has something to do with the "wide color gamut" on this monitor?
|Sep 13, 2007, 02:46 PM
My external monitor has been calibrated. The issue only occurs with adobe products. My pictures, icons, videos, etc.. all show up the same colors on both monitors. It is only my adobe files that are weird
|Sep 14, 2007, 05:44 AM
That does sound odd
Stab in the dark - System Prefs - displays - Colour - try both monitors on say sRGB and see if it fixes anything.

Second time around
Pilot restores 1941 Porterfield plane
In 1974 Don Bishop was bitten by the flying bug. He bought a plane, took some lessons and enjoyed the sport several years before it became too expensive. It was his new job as manager of the Bowie Municipal Airport that started two years ago that rekindled his passion to fly. Little did he know that desire would lead him back to an old friend, a vintage 1941 Porterfield plane.
The Porterfield, a military spotter plane, was the first plane Bishop soloed in and last month, after two years of restoration, it took to the skies once again.
His love of flying dates back more than 30 years. He began talking to people about buying a plane, and before he knew it, the 1941 Porterfield was his.
Just like it was yesterday, Bishop recalls Dec. 22, 1974, when he went out for a flying lesson. After three touch-and-go landings, his instructor told him it was time. After a total of 5.4 hours of training, he took his solo flight.
He owned several different airplanes over the years, but eight years ago, he decided the maintenance and upkeep was just too expensive, so he quit.
But after he took the airport manager's job, he got the bug again.
On a curious hunch, Bishop looked up the vehicle number for the old Porterfield.
"The plane was in Jonesboro, Ark., so I called the owner and told him I used to own it," Bishop said. "I asked if he wanted to sell it and he said yes."
The plane was in sad shape.
"Goodness gracious, I thought, I wouldn't have that piece of junk," Bishop said.
The wings were stripped to the wood and stuck in barn rafters, while the fuselage lay dead in the yard.
"There was no way I could rebuild that airplane. I had built lots of remote control planes, which are similar, although smaller. I just didn't think I could handle that, but I really wanted it because I had soloed in it."
He bought it and began working on the plane in February 2007.
He pieced the wings together just like on a model airplane, putting together quarter inch ribs and then sewing the special wing fabric to the skeleton.
"I really enjoyed the process, it was interesting and a challenge."
There were days of meticulously sewing material to the wing ribs, painting the wings with coat after coat of liquid to make them strong. Rebuilding the tail section, replacing glass and painting the fuselage. Bishop did all the work himself.
"There were parts there, in the hangar, in the garage, in the bedroom."
The yellow and white Porterfield came back to life Jan. 14, 2008, when it passed its recertification and was deemed air worthy. It took to the air that afternoon. Since the inaugural flight, Bishop has flow the plane three hours. With not that many years left until retirement, Bishop said he doesn't have any plans to really "go anywhere" in his plane, just fly it for fun.
For now, the pilot will wait patiently for a day with little wind and a chance to take his vintage flier into the skies.

Backlash against news of the Coptic papyrus fragment now known as the Gospel of Jesus' Wife did not take long. There is the ethical question: does publishing (on) a text that appears to have been removed from Egypt illegally and separated from its archaeological context, including the rest of the manuscript, due to ignorance and/or greed, not promote more of the same? I think this is the truly compelling question, and it is one that I have to ask myself.Realistically though, the question t … [Read more...]

China vs. Western Values: Xi Jinping's Ideology Campaign
Ideology is once again playing a major role in U.S.-China relations. Government warnings against the pernicious influence of "Western values" have surged under Xi Jinping.

Can China succeed in blocking Western influence? That's the focus of this edition of REWIND.
Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank
The China-led Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) is seeking to make its mark in the global development finance arena. Some have voiced concerns over the notion that the bank could have a negative impact on "good governance," and this is among the reasons the US has opposed the idea. But is that the best posture for Washington to assume? And what impact will the AIIB have in the realm of soft power? Kissinger Institute Director, Robert Daly, addresses these and other questions in this edition of Wilson Center NOW.
Banning "Western Values" in China
China's Education Minister Yuan Guiren, has been speaking out about the threat of Western values and ideas on China's college campuses. He said, "Young teachers and students are key targets of infiltration by enemy forces," and added that "some countries," fearful of China's rise, "have stepped up infiltration in more discreet and diverse ways." Can the government's latest attempts to tighten controls over China's intellectual discourse succeed? That's the focus of this edition of Wilson Center NOW.
Deciphering China's Mixed Signals
During recent speeches, high-level Chinese officials delivered seemingly contradictory messages about China's intentions as a world power. Does China intend to challenge the current world order or does it simply want to play its role within the current structure?
U.S.-China Cooperation: The Significance of the Joint Agreement on Climate Change and Clean Energy
The deal, a surprise to many, has been called, "historic." Last month, U.S. President Barack Obama and Chinese President Xi Jinping announced both countries will curb their greenhouse gas emissions over the next two decades. Is this the game changer that those calling for action have been waiting for? Will this create momentum for increased international cooperation? And what does the deal address beyond carbon emissions? China Environment Forum Director, Jennifer Turner provides analysis.
President Obama's China Trip: A Preview of What to Expect
A range of issues and events in Europe and the Middle East have prevented the Obama Administration from fully committing to its proposed "rebalance" to the Asia-Pacific region. But beginning next week when he travels to the region, the President will have another opportunity to put relations with China and other regional partners in the spotlight. Kissinger Institute Director Robert Daly provides a preview of the trip in this edition of Wilson Center NOW.
Hong Kong Standoff: A Look at the Big Picture
Crowds of protesters are shrinking, talks are scheduled, but frustrations on both sides remain. While many in the press and elsewhere are quick to reference the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests, Robert Daly explains how what's happening today is different in many ways.
Can China Prevent "Western Cultural Infiltration?"
Chinese leaders have identified U.S. and Western culture as threats to Chinese values and society. But as China becomes more engaged with the world, is it possible to encourage foreign investment while avoiding the power of pop culture?
Cooperation or Conflict: Perspectives on the South China Sea
Tensions over territorial claims continue to percolate in the South China Sea. Questions and concerns about China's intentions and actions are hot topics in the Philippines and Vietnam. Can the U.S., given the stated intention to "rebalance to Asia," play an important role in sorting out competing claims?

Flashman and the Tiger
The inimitable and appallingly appealing Flashy is back, in a long-awaited new installment of The Flashman Papers.
When the memoirs of Sir Harry Flashman, the notorious Victorian soldier and scoundrel, first came to light thirty years ago, it was finally revealed what had become of the infamous bully who had darkened Tom Brown's school days. Now, three new episodes in the career of this eminently disreputable adventurer place us at the center of pivotal historical events--the attempted assassination of Emperor Franz Josef in the 1880s, the Prince of Wales's involvement in the Tranby Croft gambling scandal, and the military disaster at Rorke's Drift in South Africa--as the aging but agile Flashy is pitted against one of the greatest villains of his day. Thrown into contact with assorted grand royalty and even grander tarts, he must test his wits against political heavyweights, including Bismarck, as he becomes eyewitness to the uncensored truth about two of the greatest heroes of his time.
Superb entertainment--all verve, dash, meticulous historical detail, and wildly infectious enthusiasm.
From the Hardcover edition.
"Next to the coming of the new Messiah, the most welcome appearance one can imagine is the new Flashman book from George MacDonald Fraser." --Time Out
"Not only are the Flashman books extremely funny, but they give meticulous care to authenticity. You can, between the guffaws, learn from them." --Washington Post
"As well as providing a fine assortment of treats, Fraser is a marvelous reporter and a first-rate historical novelist." --Sunday Telegraph

On December 28, the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California dismissed a putative class action alleging that Google Inc.'s privacy policy violates the federal Wiretap Act and state consumer protection statutes. In re Google, Inc. Privacy Policy Litig., No. 12-01382, 2012 WL 6738343 (N.D. Cal. Dec. 28, 2012). The plaintiffs allege that Google's universal privacy policy, which applies across its various products and allows Google to aggregate, store, and cross-reference certain personal information collected across those products, violates consumer privacy rights by allowing the company to collect information from one product where the consumer has an expectation of privacy, and use that information to, for example, target advertising to the consumer in other products. The court held that no precedent exists in the Ninth Circuit or any other appellate court to allow claims to proceed based on only the alleged unauthorized disclosure of personal information, let alone such disclosure of information by the defendant to itself, as is the case here. The court also held that the plaintiffs failed to support their claims under the federal Wiretap Act that a provider can intercept information when such information already is in its possession, particularly given that the Act excludes the provider's own equipment from the definition of device. The court found that the plaintiffs had failed to plead sufficient injury to establish standing, and dismissed the plaintiffs' claims with leave to amend.

A year after the brutal December 16, 2012 gang rape, one of those who was at India Gate and led the protests from the front, has herself become a victim of sexual assault. The 25-year-old girl, who had taken lathi blows and had witnessed the wounding of late constable Subhash Tomar is today fighting for justice.
The woman alleges that she was raped by Khurshid Anwar, executive director of Institute for Social Justice (ISJ). The police have registered a rape case under sections 376 and 328 of the IPC.
The rape survivor was a student of Delhi university. She always remained at the forefront of the Delhi protests with the gang rape incident marking a turning point in her life. Later, she volunteered with an NGO, which is funded by ISJ, and went to Uttarakhand to help those left ravaged by the floods.
In the three-hour-long testimony that she recorded with Madhu Kishwar of Manushi, she stated that after returning from Uttarakhand, on September 12, she went to a party hosted by Anwar at his residence. "The girl said that she consumed alcohol after which she vomited and felt giddy. Anwar then offered her his bedroom to sleep. When the others left after the party, the victim was sleeping in Anwar's bedroom. It was then that Anwar raped her," said Kishwar.
Kishwar says in the testimony that some of the others had volunteered to stay back to look after the victim, but Anwar told them that he did not need assistance and could take care of her.
The girl says the next day when she reported the matter to her bosses, they discouraged her from undergoing a medical examination. "The girl said that they washed her clothes to destroy the evidence," Kishwar said. That the NGO is funded by the Institute for Social Justice could have been a reason why the NGO did not want to make a complaint, Kishwar said.
Kishwar recorded the girl's testimony on September 19, six days after the incident. The girl does not belong to Delhi and comes from a lower economic strata. "She told me that her mother was unwell and she needed finances to support her. Because of activism, she also messed up her studies and was not keen on registering a complaint," said Kishwar, who added that it was her friends who insisted that she record her testimony. "She agreed as we promised her that Manushi would not intervene until she wanted it to," said Kishwar.
While the girl went back to take care of her ailing mother, her friends and co-volunteers who were associated with the NGO approached the National Commission for Women (NCW) to get a complaint registered. "We have gone through the CD, her testimony; and the versions of other friends clearly indicate that the girl had been raped," said Nirmala Samant, a NCW member.
The commission has written to Delhi's commissioner of police to register a complaint. "We wrote to the police on December 14 to investigate the matter. We have asked them to reply in four days time and are yet to hear from them," Samant said. Khurshid Anwar remained unavailable for comment despite several calls to his office.
"We have registered a case of rape under sections 376 and 328 of the IPC. The victim is out of Delhi. We have contacted her and asked her to record a statement. She has named the accused and also the NGO she was working with. After she records her statement and undergoes medical examination, we will call other people she has named in the complaint," a senior police official, who is supervising the case told dna.

SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO - Citing anecdotal feedback suggesting the number of school volunteers was down this year, the Capistrano Unified school board on Monday indefinitely suspended a 2-month-old policy that requires parent volunteers to submit to and pay for criminal background checks and tuberculosis testing.
No parents addressed trustees regarding the policy Monday, but several trustees said they'd received feedback indicating the number of volunteers had decreased this year at some of the school district's 56 campuses. District officials said an informal survey of principals and PTA leaders suggested the decline was more pronounced at middle and high schools.
The screening process costs at least $54 and includes mandatory fingerprinting.
"This year (the schools) can't get enough people to volunteer, so I'm assuming the volunteers are down," Trustee Larry Christensen said. "We need more volunteers than we've ever needed before."
The school board already was forced to delay implementing the policy by five months, to Dec. 1, because of processing delays and confusion among parents.
Capistrano's policy required parents to be fingerprinted and cleared via an FBI criminal background check, tested for tuberculosis, and allow their names to be run through the Megan's Law database of registered sex offenders.
More than 7,000 Capistrano Unified volunteers have been cleared under the new screening process, although district officials said they did not know how many were volunteering beforehand.
With the policy's suspension, parents are no longer required to be fingerprinted or cleared for TB. School officials, however, will continue to run volunteers' names through the Megan's Law database, the district said.
Superintendent A. Woodrow Carter, who is on paid administrative leave, championed the new policy last spring as a precautionary measure intended to help ensure the safety of the district's 52,000 students. At the time, Carter said the new policy probably would result in a temporary drop in the number of volunteers, but that over time, the volunteers would likely return.
"Such cost and any inconvenience is outweighed by the increased level of safety that will be provided to our students," Carter said in an April 2008 memo to trustees.
Capistrano Unified's policy, which was approved unanimously by trustees April 21, 2008, was among the strictest in Orange County. Some school districts, including the 57,000-student Santa Ana Unified School District, have an almost identical policy to Capistrano's. Other districts require only minimal screening or only screening of certain volunteers, such as those who come into unsupervised contact with children.
No specific problems involving volunteers have been reported in at least the past decade, officials said Monday.
But an FBI spokesman said in a Register interview last year that his agency did not recommend anything less than a full background check for school volunteers.
"I'm surprised there's so much disparity," FBI spokesman Stephen Fischer said. "As a school district, I would think you'd want to know everything you could about someone who is going to be working with children. We recommend a full background check."
California law prohibits anyone who is a registered sex offender from volunteering in a public school, but doesn't require TB screening or criminal background checks of volunteers.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791)
Piano Concerto in A major, K488 (1786)
Allegro assai
There was a time - not much more than half a century ago - when K488 was one of the few Mozart piano concertos regularly played in Britain. Today it remains a special favourite, adored for the poise and beauty of its first movement, the forlorn expressiveness of its adagio, the inspired prattle of its finale. Composed in tandem with The Marriage of Figaro in 1786, it is the product of one of Mozart's greatest Viennese years, during which he wrote two other piano concertos, the 'Prague' symphony, much fine chamber music and, for a celebration at the palace of Schonbrunn, his pithy operatic send-up entitled The Impresario.
Innovatively, the concerto's orchestration, though lightweight, included a pair of clarinets, instruments Mozart associated with Vienna and his friend Anton Stadler and had employed in only one previous concerto. Apprehensive that orchestras might not have clarinets available, he interestingly suggested that a solo violin and viola could substitute for them. Yet much of the mellifluous sweetness of the music is dependent upon their presence and on the absence here of more nasal oboe tone. Sweetness, however, does not preclude sadness, which sometimes darkens the pearly melodic interplay between soloist and orchestra in the first movement.
On the other hand, the stark simplicity of the adagio, Mozart's last of its kind in a minor key (not, it must be said, that he wrote many such), sounds like uninterrupted tragedy. The pulse is that of a very slow siciliano, the Sicilian rhythm of a gently rocking boat, much used in baroque operas and concertos, but greatly savoured by Mozart also, especially in this work. Yet the music looks forward, as well as backwards, anticipating Pamina's lament in The Magic Flute, though containing none of that aria's elaborate decorations. Whether or not the soloist chooses to insert any of his or her own, or to leave Mozart's bare lines and huge, slow leaps to speak for themselves, the music has an operatic intensity highlighted by the closing bars, with their softly insistent, curiously disturbing pizzicato strings.
To this mood of desolation, the mercurial wit and audacious modulations of the finale are the perfect antidote. The scale passages here are no ordinary scale passages, but Mozartian comedy at its most sublimely zany and merrily audacious. At the same time, the entire work has a strangely spectral quality. In the words of one observer, it is a fragile structure of glass, through which the piano itself is often heard only faintly.

"I had no idea what to expect. This card exceeded my expectations. The Tree is soothing, the color I chose is beautiful, the paper quality is high grade. My family has received calls telling us how beautiful the card was which is most unusual. Thank you, tinyprints, for an excellent product. I will continue to place orders with confidence in the quality of the item."
"These are great. We used a photo that had a lot of navy blue in it, which complements the color of the card. We put our family on it instead of just a couple. The paper and printing, as always, are great quality. We feel very comfortable sending these out as thank you notes for our daughter's christening gifts."
"This card was a perfect fit for the occasion. My dad's passing was so difficult and I was searching for a thank you card that fit his personality. This one fit the bill. The paper quality was excellent."
"I loved the quality of the card and the ability to personalize it both inside and out. Everyone who received it thought it was a wonderful remembrance."
"This card arrived and was as advertised in every way....color was true, print was clear and it looked exactly as I formatted it. Could not have been happier. It also arrived earlier than anticipated!"

An investigative report by Online WSJ claimed Robert Vadra, son-in-law of Congress President Sonia used his Gandhi family connection for business benefits. The WSJ reveals how Vadra bought large tracts of arid agricultural land in a small town 'Kolayat' in western Rajasthan in 2009 and other parts of the country. According to the report, soon after he began buying, the central government announced plans to promote large-scale solar-energy production, a land-intensive project for which the area was well-suited. He continued buying land, and in 2011 the state, too, announced solar incentives. The value of the land he bought soared sixfold within three years.
While state officials are investigating the matter to find any violations by Vadra, his spokespersons have a different tale to tell. They say, "He is a private citizen who has been subjected to a campaign to malign him for political reasons. He has acquired and disposed of real estate in exercise of his rights and has obtained no favor or benefit from anyone,"
A Pew Research survey found that 83 percent of Indians consider corruption a "very big" problem. Hence, Vadra's inclusion in the corruption list drags Congress too and may prove dangerous for the party in the Lok Sabha elections 2014.
While BJP and AAP have raised the issue of corruption ridden governance by Congress, the party has been trying to estrange itself from the claims. Rahul Gandhi is being potrayed as the anti-corruption crusader by Congress party members.
"Never in my lifetime have I seen the kind of cynicism that the current government in Delhi has generated among the middle classes," said Jyotirmaya Sharma, a University of Hyderabad political scientist in the WSJ report.
What experts say:
*It is hard to know how much property people really own. The wealthy and politically connected in India sometimes hold large amounts in the names of others—from servants to shell companies—to avoid tax officials and corruption investigators, said RH Tahiliani, former chairman of the India chapter of Transparency International, the global anticorruption group.
*No legal authority has accused Vadra of any wrongdoing. An investigative committee appointed by the state of Haryana's Congress-led government reviewed one transaction questioned by a land official in 2012 and cleared Vadra. The Congress party said that Vadra is a private citizen engaged in business and hasn't done anything wrong.
Read: AAP leader Kumar Vishwas to file complaint against Priyanka Gandhi, Robert Vadra and Rahul Gandhi for 'threat to life'
*India Against Corruption, an activist group, has criticized some of Vadra's deals and accused him of enriching himself through transactions with a property developer. The group has called for a new probe of his business that it says would be more politically independent than the one begun in 2012.
*Based on a review of company filings, land records and interviews with property experts, WSJ calculated that through 2012, Mr. Vadra sold more than $12 million of property, and as of then he still held real estate valued at about $42 million
The backdrop and highlights from the report:
Robert Vadra married into India's political nobility in 1997 when he wed Priyanka Gandhi.
She is daughter of Sonia Gandhi and the late Rajiv Gandhi, prime minister from 1984 to 1989.
According to WSJ, When Congress, with Sonia Gandhi at the helm, retook power from the BJP in 2004, Vadra was running a small business exporting inexpensive costume jewelry. In late 2007 he went into the real-estate business, forming a firm called Sky Light Hospitality Private Ltd. with less than $2,000, according to company filings at the Registrar of Companies of the Ministry of Corporate Affairs in New Delhi.
2008: Sky Light bought 3.5 acres of undeveloped land near a highway intersection in the New Delhi suburb of Gurgaon for $1.3 million, according to a sales document.
*Two months later, Vadra applied to the Congress-controlled state government for a license to convert the land to commercial use from agricultural. Preliminary permission was granted 18 days later, according to the license application and state approval. With that, the land became far more valuable.
For more Robert Vadra related stories, click here:
*Over the next four years, developer DLF Ltd. 532868.BY +1.01% poured millions of dollars into Mr. Vadra's company, reported on its balance sheet as "advances." Then in 2012, DLF said it bought the Gurgaon property from Mr. Vadra's company for a total of $9.7 million, most of which it had advanced in the preceding years. It was more than seven times his reported purchase price.
*A senior official at the Haryana state land office, Ashok Khemka, looked into the deal and concluded Mr. Vadra's company "did not own the resources to pay" for the land when purchasing it in 2008. Suspecting irregularities, he moved to cancel the deal.
*The state's chief minister, a Congress party politician, ordered Mr. Khemka transferred to a position in a state-run agricultural company. The chief minister and his staff didn't respond to requests for comment. Mr. Khemka, a whistleblower in a number of past allegations of corruption, said he has been transferred numerous times in his 22-year civil-service career to foil his gadfly efforts.
*According to government filings, Sky Light Hospitality said it paid for the land in 2008 with a loan from state-owned Corporation Bank. 532179.BY +1.43% In 2012, the bank's then-chairman was quoted by the Times of India as saying there "was no such transaction with us as per our records so far." That official has left the bank and couldn't be reached; the new bank chairman declined to comment.
*Aam Admi Party, alleged that the transactions amounted to a ploy for DLF to give the Gandhi family property and money to curry favor. Congress party officials have repeatedly denied the allegation.
