Love Thy Neighbor
In 2010, a St. Edward's student envisioned creating a day of dignity for South Austin's homeless. Now in its third year, Reach Out is being handed over to new leaders.
By Lauren Liebowitz
Whenever Matt Wolski '13 wonders whether Reach Out has made an impact, he remembers an encounter he witnessed at the event. One of the homeless patrons recognized Father Bill Wack, CSC, pastor at St. Ignatius Martyr Catholic Church in Austin, from meeting him years ago at a homeless shelter in Phoenix.
"The man still remembered everything Father Bill had done for him," says Wolski. "It was incredible. It taught me that even though we're not giving them a permanent house, we're doing something of meaning for them."
Each March, hundreds of volunteers from around Austin spend a Saturday at St. Ignatius serving food and fellowship to their homeless brothers and sisters. Reach Out volunteers are often students at St. Edward's, but local Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts, St. Ignatius parishioners, and volunteers from the nonprofit Mobile Loaves & Fishes join in to help the cause, too.
"For this program to outlive us, we have to pick replacements," Wolski says, who's facing the same challenge as billionaire investor Warren Buffett: finding and growing successors. "One of my mentors once told me our most difficult task as leaders would be to allow someone else to take ownership of the project."
As hard as it is for Wolski to let go of something he's poured his heart into, he recognizes that it's inevitable if he wants the organization to outlive his time at St. Edward's.
Wolski is already ahead of Buffett and has two co-coordinators waiting in the wings: Shelby Jasso '14 and Zach Gil-Mata '14. They have been involved with the organization, but Wolski will mentor them this year to prepare them for their new roles.
"It is inspiring to see a group of college kids organize an event that gets larger as the years go by," Gil-Mata says. "Having done this for two years now, we know what to expect. Plus, this role will allow us to grow more as leaders."
From November until the event's date in March, members of Reach Out raise awareness — and funds — through discussion, bake sales, a raffle and a panhandling event, during which students pose as panhandlers on campus. They display cardboard signs that share facts about homelessness with classmates who often go out of their way to avoid eye contact.
Involvement with Reach Out has had a profound impact on all of its volunteers, especially Matthew Aragones '13 and Chandler Sager '14, who will assume roles as the directors of fundraising and community outreach, respectively, for the 2012–2013 school year.
For Aragones, the most important lesson he hopes participants will take away from Reach Out is that the homeless guests are human beings "just like you and me," which he thinks many people overlook.
"What makes Reach Out special is that we actually communicate with our guests," Sager adds. "Giving them food or money isn't a connection, it's a transaction. When you actually talk to them, that's where the love and the healing takes place."
When Wolski looks back at his time with Reach Out, he can't help but look forward — and within. "I'm thrilled it has touched the lives of more than 1,300 homeless people and 300 volunteers in three years," he says. "It has provided me an incredible avenue to try and be the hands of God in our world. It's an affirmation of my belief in the Holy Cross philosophies that have led me each step of the way."

Garage & CanopiesNot every house comes equipped with a garage that is large enough to store all the toys the owner may have. If you have the land to expand your storage space, the easiest way to do so is to invest in a garage canopy. These shelters are easy to set up, protect your possessions from the weather, and are an affordable way to store excess "stuff."
Canopies can be small enough to store a lawn tractor, or large enough to house an RV. Options also include a simple roof, a roof with sides, or a five-sided structure that can be completely sealed with a front door, of sorts. Open canopies can also be used for shelter during a picnic, providing shade from the sun in a few minutes.

I bought this door at a garage sale in Ohio for $5. It was taken out of a torn down farmhouse…which means its old, solid wood, and weights 400 pounds (give or take 300).
Luckily it was long enough for our King bed…we even had to take some off. When you buy a door make sure its long enough for your bed…I measured my bed frame from side to side. You will need to buy L Brackets (we also used these since our door is hecka-heavy) , and a couple of 2 x 4's of wood…we got ours from the scrap wood section at Home Depot, I think they were 50 cents each. I also bought a pre-cut piece of trim from Home Depot, its 8 ft. (I think) and its pre-primed.
Sand down your door at least to get the shine off. Then my handy husband attached the molding, you could always just cut the sides of the molding flush with the end of the door also. I used this paint that has the primer already in it….love it. Its more expensive, but I already had some left over from my buffet.
Paint your door, then distress it with sandpaper afterwards if you want to really watch your husband cringe. Men don't understand distressing a perfectly good paint job. I also used a little wood stain in the cracks to make them a little darker. To make the legs, I measured my 2x4's and cut them so the door will rest on the legs ( I made 3 legs) so the door will be 2-3" under your mattress. So it doesn't fall on your head and squish you in the night….happy thoughts. Use the L brackets to screw the legs on to the door like so… (bad pic sorry)
You can either use a bracket to attach the legs of your headboard to your bed frame…or just rest your headboard up against the wall and smoosh your mattress up against it. Ours is resting against the wall and even though our headboard is hecka-heavy it hasn't budged.
Its a good Saturday project and its cheap and easy with a little handy-woman know how. Someday I'll tell you about the time I installed our sprinkler system all by myself….or about the time I installed all the electrical in our basement. :) True story.

Delaware State's Master of Science (MS) program in Biological Sciences stands out for its emphasis on independent research and the flexibility offered the student to develop knowledge in specialized areas they select. All master's candidates write a thesis based on self-directed laboratory and/or field studies in biology. They also have the opportunity to play significant roles on research teams led by full faculty and postdoctoral scientists.
Although the program is designed for students who intend to enter doctoral programs upon completion of the MS, some graduates may choose to directly enter the workforce and become professional scientists working in government, private industry, or the nonprofit sector. Delaware State's research programs cover a broad range of biology-related fields, including cancer research, biotechnology, genetic engineering, biomedical research, and natural resource management. In addition, Delaware State has a grant-funded relationship with the graduate program at Drexel University (in Philadelphia), and students can explore options of doing their MS research, or taking some courses towards their DSU degree, there.
For those not desiring a research thesis, see the Master of Arts (MA) degree in Biological Sciences.
Professional Preparation
Graduate students in biology at Delaware State develop superior research skills. They have the opportunity to work with experienced investigators in state-of-the-art facilities, with access to specialized equipment. They learn to design experiments, analyze results, present their findings to peers, and write for scientific publications.
Master's candidates in Biology work closely with faculty members, and are partnered with faculty through a lab rotation course during the first semester in the program. The program's small scope and size ensure a degree of direct interaction between professors and graduate students. Delaware State's biology faculty includes highly accomplished researchers and educators. Graduate students benefit from professors' experience as well as their professional and academic networks.
Research and Experience
Delaware State's biology department offers outstanding research opportunities with flexibility to select research mentors from across campus to fit the student's career objectives. There are active, well-funded inquiries on campus in such fields as neuroscience, biofuels, cancer, DNA analysis, microbiology, plant biotechnology, biophysics, and gene manipulation. Students have the opportunity to work with high-profile investigators, utilize state-of-the-art technology, attend academic conferences, and collaborate on scientific papers.

After Heller tries to kill Mercer a few times Mercer move away slowly and then you get control of Heller. Just follow Mercer as he moves away and you are bound to see some action in a little while. First though, you get a copter warning but then the copter goes down and you need to dodge it - W + Shift to dodge your way out. Then a Goliath - your first, comes behind you - just sprint by holding the Shift button. Then as if all that was not enough, a brawler comes in and you need to attack it by hitting the LMB continually. After a while though you will come up to Mercer and then get infected....
Well, being a lab rat for the Gentek scientists can be a bit adventurous. Some mutants are releases at you in the beginning. Just keep hitting them using the LMB. For a punch just click and for a kick, hold the button. You get into combos while punching continuously. After a while you will learn how to consume a target.
To consume anything in front of you, you will need to hold the person or mutant by hitting E and then right click to consume. Consuming something will allow you to take its form and also gain health. So as you keep losing health just keep consuming the targets to heal back.
Just keep going at it and try to bring you health up as much as possible in the beginning since another blast will take out half of your health. After the blast, move to the center of this area and you will see a machine which you can grab and then hit R to aim. Throw it out the glass above you to break it and then move ahead and hold Space to make a high jump to get out.
The Strong Survive
As Heller peacefully moves among the populous a Blackwatch commander comes in and starts deciding whether to kill the guys painting the walls. As soon as he comes near Heller, just hit him once and then consume him. This will give you the Commander form but for now you will need to concentrate on getting the hell out of sight. Just start sprinting and running like hell. If you are in air then hit space again to glide ahead. Just keep running far away and jump onto the ground to escape the sight of the copter and then take on the commander form. You will be able to see a marking on a high building, go to it. Heller remembers Father Guerra and a new location is shown. Go to the father for some help. Now, next stop is the Hospital, go there and you get a new power.
Hit the Q button to send a hunt pulse and you will see your main target in red for a second.
Get to the target and hit E and right click to consume him and then you can stay and kill everyone or just haul butt out of here to a place far away where you get the next target. Everything is similar here but now you will need to glide across the broken bridge to get to the target. To glide, just sprint and jump and hold the sprint button again. When you reach the target, consume him and then run away from the two attack copter which are coming at you. You may not be able to totally evade them by just running so just keep sprinting and look out for the shapeshift prompt. Hit the button to shift and then wait for the cooldown to happen.
NOTE: After this mission you can free roam around the whole city. You can get collectibles and also do any blacknet missions which are available.
Operation Flytrap
Go to the G spot on the map and you will start this mission. As soon as you get there you will see the clowns releasing a Brawler. The most important thing you need to remember here is to use dodge when you are directly facing one. Hit it from behind. You ought to dodge, hold kick and then continue with combos and when it faces you again, repeat.
After you bring down it's health you can consume it and get the CLAWS power.
One more Brawler follows this one. Take it out and a host of RPG's come at you. Kill them quickly, it's best if you just keep consuming them one by one so that you can get health as you lose it and if you consume enough you will unlock their DNA and get a bonus of 1000 exp. After you kill all of them a tank comes in. There ought to be a Launcher on the ground, take it by hitting E and launch at the tank a few times to take it down. After that, you will need to get back to the church and tell the Father that you can do it and he joins your cause.
NOTE: You may have leveled up after this mission. You can choose one of the attributes presented to increase one of your several abilities.
Orion's Belt
Get to the marked location and shapeshift into a Blackwatch form and use the terminal here to get the name. Head there and then consume the guy and head onto the Blackwatch base. Consume the patrol guy in front of the gate and using his form, enter the facility. Once inside, move to the shown location and consume the scientist and move to the door to go inside. You will come to another target but he is being watched so just kill the guard first - to stealth kill, hit E and Right Click behind the targets - just do it fast. Then grab the scientist and head up the stairs and use the scanner. Move inside and target and scan the main guy and you will see that he is being watched by two guards. Stealth Consume them and then him and get out of this area.
Operation Black Tulip
This is in two parts. First, reach the place and you will get the name of CPL Jeffrey Fasolo. Go on top of a building and find him. After you rip him, get to the location and use the hand scanner to release the Brawler. Then after it kills for a bit, run behind it and kill it. After this, go to the next Blacknet van and you get the name of CPL Tino Antonelli. Find him and open him. Then head to the place and you will see a weird entrance. Go on top of the entrance and hit the interact to go inside the facility. After that you can start killing everything or just find the guy marked and consume him and then use the hand scanner to release the beast. You can get a bonus if you hit it with an explosive. There are some grenade launchers if you look around and also you can use the large red crates to make an explosion. Kill it and consume it and then get out of this place.
Brain Drain
Reach the point and consume the guard nearby. Then walk into the military zone and consume the personnel who is doing the rounds - make it quick and wait for him to be behind some cover so that no is seeing and you can stealth consume him. Use the hand scanner to go inside the facility and you will get to Colonel Rooks. After Heller decides his fate, you will come outside again. Now, you should be able to see four or five scientists nearby and you will have to consume all of them. You will get a bonus if you pounce grab one of them. To do that, first target one of them using R and then jump up and hold E to grab - you need to be a bit close to the target to get this done. After you take out all of them you will need to get the location of the Head Scientist Shaffeild. He is a bit far away so move onto one of the buildings and locate him, get near him and he gets into an armored vehicle. Walk ahead and you will see some guards with launchers, kill one of them and take the launcher and target and destroy the vehicle to get the Scientist out. Then get near him and consume him. Get out of the alert area to end this.
Project Long Shadow
First, use disguise to get by the hand scanner. Then you will next see targets with the DNA icon on them. Consume all of them and head inside the lab. You will now come across your first boss - HYDRA.
The Hydra has only two attacks - one is smash which can be modified into grab and smash if you are far away. Then next is a swipe attack. I found the best and easiest way to kill it is to first target it using R and then get close in and start slashing, whenever it is about of smash you will see a dodge prompt, just jump away or move far and while in the air hold the attack button to make a power hit and also get close again and continue the slashing. It will get ripped soon and you get the...
You can use the tendrils but right click. One click will get the smash option and if you hold it you will get the mega smash. You can use the Mega Smash to even take out armored vehicles and the mega smash does half the damage of a rocket launcher but is still extremely effective. After you kill and consume it, move to the exit and you will come across an entire squad of enemies. Now, use the Black Hole attack (the Mega Smash) - which is to hold the right click and see what happens. Exit the base and also the alert area to end this mission.
Operation Manticore
The first part just involves consuming all the scientists. The second part needs you to get inside a lair and then kill everyone inside. Pretty straightforward...
The Lab Rat
This one is the G icon. Get there to start this. Firstly, you are instructed by Rooks to escort Bellamy out of the zone. He is on the other side of the city so get there and you will see a copter. Move to the highest building nearby and jump onto the flyover road near the copter. When it is close to you, switch to Tendrils and keep using black hole till the copter is destroyed and then get out of the alert zone. Then you will need to move to another area where three armored vehicles are a convoy. Get there and destroy all three and Belammy finally comes out. Consume him and exit the alert to finish this.
Feeding Time
It seems that Gentek is throwing in civilians to large mutants for their sick experiments. Move to the area and you are asked to destroy all the enemies in this place to gain access. Kill all of them and also take out the APC and some more come out of the locked door and you can go in. Consume the head scientist inside the facility and use the hand scan to get to the Juggernaut. Now, this can be really easy. Firstly get a Launcher and target the Juggernaut using R. Then keep moving in one direction and hitting it. When it lifts a piece of cement just dodge out of the impact area. You can kill it within two launchers and without even being hit once. This is the kind of enemy which you ought to take out from a distance, but after a while it will keep deflecting the rockets so you will need to get in and destroy it yourself. Consume it after the health is low and you get a new power. Now, when the enemies come in, click CTRL just before a missile hits you to deflect the rocket straight back to them. Kill all of them and change form and get out of the area.
One of my favorite missions in the game... It's boom boom pow all the way. Your first task is to get to the church as soon as possible. Once there, destroy the troops and vehicles. You will also unlock a new ability here.
This can be extremely useful as the TOW rockets can destroy a vehicle with ease and with speed. Jump on top of an APC and hit E. Then continuously hit left click to pull out the TOW and target your enemies using R and unleash hell on them.
Take out the first two waves and an assault force comes in from the distance. Go near them first and pull out a TWO and take out the helicopters above you, only then hit the two APC's below. Kill the rest of the enemies and go into the church.
Clean Sweep
Go to the location and you will see a new icon on top of a soldier nearby, consume him and you will get to know CPL Stanley Carter. Then move out if there's an alert and use the Balcknet vehicle. This is going to be a fun mission. You need to get to the spot and then jump on building roofs from one roof to the other to get the packages which are on the ground. This can be a little bit challenging if you did not upgrade any of your speed or jumping powers while leveling up. Just be sure to use the double jump and then glide.
The Mad Scientist
Head to Koenig's facility and get inside somehow. Once you are inside you will see that you can get a bonus if you do not raise alert as you go inside the facility. You can do this by stealth killing everyone nearby. Target them and scan to see who is watching them and so kill the watchers and so on. Kill as many guys as you can but do not touch the monster cages yet. Use the next scanner to get to Koenig and when you come back out, you can release and kill the Brawlers here to upgrade your claws. Now, Koeing says he wants to help you can gives you the location of Burk.
Go to where Bruk is and you will need to first destroy the comm-arrays on top of the roofs so that no backup is contacted. Kill the nearest enemy with the launcher and use the launcher to destroy all three arrays and go to ground level. You will immediately come across an Orion Punk. Target him and then use anything you want to. If you want to get away without a scratch then target him and sprint and jump and when you are in the air hold left click to power claw him and keep doing that. After you consume him you will need to destroy the power grids around the facility. Destroy them and while you are at it, two more Orions come at you. Repeat your attacks and give them their fate and consume them. Destroy all of the power generators and move out of the area to end this mission.
Orion Phase Two
Head towards the Proving Grounds and after you get there you will get in contact with Phase Two almost immediately. If you want to make short work of it, just rip the TOW launcher off the nearby APC and use it on the Orion. You can also target it and jump and power slash if you want to. Either way, after you Consume it, some more Phase Ones come at you and also some Brawlers.
You will get this power immediately after you consume the phase two. You should be able to see the new bar under your health bar which represents mass. You gain mass when you consume someone and when the bar is full, you can detonate the mass to cause an explosion. In the final levels of this power you will be able to kill brutes with an explosion.
Use any combination of the attacks at your disposal and after you clear out the area, you can spot Burk. Jump to him and consume him to get a new twist in the plot.
Natural Selection
Two helicopters show up as soon as you start this mission. Use your black holes to take them down and head to the location of the convoy. Destroy the APCs and consume the commander and you will know the location of that snake. Once to get to his location (Base Seven) you will need to destroy all the fuel cells which are around to open the facility. You can use the rocket launchers which are on the ground somewhere or just keep slashing the things. You can also progress faster if you rip out the TOW from the APC below but if you want to, you can save it later for a boss. After you take out all the cells Koenig calls in an attack copter and you will need to destroy it. Simply target it and do what you want, but after you take out the copter, you will unravel a secret.
Koenig is very very fast and you will need to constantly move to avoid him and also, time your blocks (CTRL) carefully to get him on the rebound. After his health is low enough, consume him.
The Airbridge
This is a simple mission. Just get to the marked locations and consume the commander. Move away from the area if you alerted the place and come back. Get to the marked location in the commander's disguise and move the map using the direction keys into the green zone to the right and mark near the H symbol to land there.

"Someone's Watching over Me" is a pop song written by Kara DioGuardi and John Shanks, produced by Shanks and recorded by Hilary Duff for the soundtrack of the 2004 film Raise Your Voice, in which she stars. It also appears on Duff's third album, Hilary Duff (2004). Jeff Rothschild and Shanks mixed the song. It was released as the album's second single in Australia in 2005 (see 2005 in music)
During the week of the single's radio release in Australia in January, it was the fifth most added song to station playlists. After its release as a single the following month, it peaked at number twenty-two on the ARIA Singles Chart and remained in the top forty for nine weeks. The single's B-side is a cover of The Who's "My Generation".
According to Paul Broucek, executive vice president of music for New Line Cinema, in November 2004, "Someone's Watching over Me" was one of the studio's possible contenders for an Academy Award nomination for Best Original Song at the 77th Academy Awards. The Herald Sun wrote of "Someone's Watching over Me", which it awarded one star, "Yeah, that'd be Lindsay Lohan. They're single-white-femaling each other when it comes to music, though Duff got in first with the polite Avril-lite soft rock. However, this positivity-laden ballad sucks. The Sunday Telegraph published a two-star review of the song, editorializing that "The banging migraine kicked in somewhere around the lyrics: "I've seen that ray of light/It's shining on my destiny" [...] a brainless, infectious dose of made-to-order teen empowerment pop.

The settings for favorite TV shows can often become almost as familiar as the characters themselves. But although we've spent many hours with these apartments and houses in the background, their details usually remain a mystery. Of course many programs are shot on sets, but sometimes real home exteriors and interiors are used.
With this collection, readers may wonder no more about some well-known homes from television dramas on AMC, HBO, and PBS as well as situation comedies on NBC and FOX. There are a few reality homes thrown in as well, from programs airing on MTV and Oxygen.

Unearthing the Truth: Egypt's Pagan and Coptic Sculpture

Egypt in the Late Antique Period (313–642 C.E.)
During the Late Antique Period (313–642 C.E.), Egypt was part of the Roman Empire. The emperors of this period recognized Christianity, and although many of their subjects, including Greeks and Romans who had settled in Egypt, still followed pagan beliefs, Christianity rapidly won adherents in Egypt—while Egypt's own ancient religion virtually disappeared. When the Arabs conquered Egypt in 642, Christianity was the most important religion in the land. The new rulers brought with them the Muslim faith, which remains the dominant religion of Egypt to this day.
Egyptian Christians, both ancient and modern, are called Copts. For that reason, the period when Christianity became dominant in Egypt is often called the Coptic Period. However, that term overlooks the importance of pagan culture and particularly pagan influence on Coptic art. Thus it seems preferable to refer to this time as the Late Antique Period.
The funerary sculpture in this exhibition comes from cemeteries of towns that were part of the Roman administration of Egypt. Some of these towns were newly founded, while others were old settlements with new Roman names. On the labels for individual objects, their sources, where known, are listed under the names most commonly used today. On the map here, both the modern and the Roman names of towns are shown.
The Late Antique Monuments
The first Late Antique Period tombs in the major cemeteries of Egypt were made for people who followed pagan beliefs. Increasingly, however, the same types of tombs were made for Christians, and eventually older monuments that had fallen into disuse were sometimes reused.
The main decoration of many pagan tombs was an image of the deceased, carved almost in the round and facing forward, often within a rectangular niche. Many tomb chapels featured an arch set into the wall above head height that bent forward over the visitor. In pagan tombs, these arches featured representations of mythical figures intended to symbolize the deceased. Thus, the god of the Nile could remind tomb visitors of a mature, successful father; a nymph might stand for a young, unmarried woman; Hercules could symbolize strength or leadership. In Christian tombs, arches also bent out over the visitor, but they were decorated with crosses. Both pagan and Christian tombs were also decorated with plant and animal forms, often arranged in friezes.
Representations of the Virgin and Christ child seem to have been especially frequent in churches and monasteries. A few reliefs in the Brooklyn Museum collection, such as the bust of a saint, also seem more appropriate for religious structures than for individual tombs. Much of the surviving decoration from these buildings consists of architectural elements, like the small column capital in this exhibition.
The Modern Forgeries
We now know that the many Late Antique Egyptian sculptures that appeared on the art market in the 1960s and 1970s included a number of modern forgeries. At that time, however, this material was so little known that the bad pieces were not recognized. Only at the end of the 1970s did scholars begin to point out problems of authenticity in some of the material. By that time, the Brooklyn Museum, like many other museums, had acquired both genuine examples of Late Antique Egyptian sculpture and modern imitations.
One reason that the false pieces were so readily accepted may have been that they seemed to have much in common with the genuine examples, many of which had been made to look almost new, with patches of old paint removed and minor surface damages smoothed away. In a few cases, important areas had been entirely recarved and repainted, as can be seen in this exhibition on the face and hands of a red-robed boy standing in a niche. Some badly damaged examples had been extensively recarved. And since some of the forgeries were in all likelihood carved from the badly damaged remains of ancient sculptures, it seems certain that both those who "renewed" the ancient examples and those who created the new versions were working in the same place, quite possibly at one or more of the ancient cemeteries where such material was found.

I'm slightly worried, so I was wondering if I could have your opinions (please?).
I stumbled on this page today, http://www.jamesshuggins.com/h/hum1/gui ... r_cats.htm
If you've read 'The Unadulterated Cat', you should pretty quickly realise where most of this (at least 'Doors' through 'Cat Games') is from.
I've emailed the guy who runs the website in what I thought was a pretty reasonable way:
" Hi James,
Please note that I am not in any position to contact you on behalf of the copyright holder, and am slightly vague about the legality of it all, but I thought you might like to know that a large part of your page called 'Guidelines for Cats' (http://www.jamesshuggins.com/h/hum1/gui ... r_cats.htm) is copied, or possibly has been slightly altered, from a book called 'The Unadulterated Cat' by Terry Pratchett. I don't have the text in front of me, but I recognise from 'Doors' through to just before the paragraph 'Toys' as originating from this book, except the line entitled 'Bedtim'. This book is defiantly not in the public domain though, and I'm assuming that you found it on a website that didn't reference properly.
Sorry for the inconvenience of this. Terry Pratchett's agent can be contacted through his website that can be found here: http://www.colinsmythe.co.uk/
Thanks, "
(Sorry for wordiness, I'm trying to make a point )
He hasn't emailed back yet, but I was wondering if you guys knew of anything I should be doing about it as I'm pretty vague on the legal issues surrounding it (apart from knowing that it's blatent stealing )
Thanks if you've bothered reading this far anyway.

Hi folks,
1. How are particular customs chosen to be displayed under the Featured Customs section?
2. Would it be possible to post suprasizeme's Power of Grayskull 1st prize custom (Snake Armor Heman) under the Featured Customs section for all Realmers to see? Just asking since customs tend to get 'buried' under new posts in a matter of days.
Just think it would be a cool way to showcase supra's contribution to the latest contest.
Thank you moderators for keeping this awesome site running smoothly.

CEDAR FALLS, Iowa - The discovery of a pipe bomb in a residential Cedar Falls neighborhood ended safety with a small, controlled "bang" Tuesday. But not before authorities had to evacuate several square blocks for most of the day.
Police say city workers found the homemade explosive in a storm sewer under a manhole in the 2300 block of Royal Drive just north of the College Square Mall in Cedar Falls. Workers who saw the plastic pipe inside the manhole, pulled it out and then quickly got help.
Several neighbors said they had watched coverage of the bombing at the Boston Marathon Monday and then found themselves caught up in their own situation just a day later.
Margaret Woodward, who lives just a couple of homes away from the discovery, said the coincidence was just eerie. "I was very uneasy this morning after yesterday and feel we're not safe anywhere. And this has been a safe neighborhood forever," Woodward said.
Cedar Falls Police Chief Jeff Olson said "copycat" events are something you watch for after any big incident like the bombings in Boston. But he has no reason to believe the events have any connection. It is possible the pipe bomb discovered Tuesday was put inside the storm sewer a long time ago.
Cedar Falls called for help from a bomb squad in Waterloo. Officers in protective gear, as well as a robot, studied the device and eventually placed it behind a wall of sandbags. There it was successfully detonated with a controlled explosive device and rendered harmless.
Chief Olson later praised the city workers for how they handled the discovery. "They see something down there, pick it up take a look and decide it's suspicious drop it gently and give us a call," the chief said.
The chief said authorities combed the area for any more devices and found none. Residents were allowed back into their homes just after 4:30 p.m.
Now authorities say the next step is to figure out who did it and why.

Visitor guidelines to help protect against H1N1 exposure in Intermountain's hospitals have been changed slightly, in response to the decrease in H1N1 activity in Utah. Please check with your local hospital for specific restrictions or any changes, prior to visiting. Here are the new visitor guidelines for Intermountain hospitals:
Tighter visitor guidelines could be reinstated. Intermountain Healthcare and public health leaders will continue to monitor the H1N1 situation—along with cases of seasonal flu and RSV. If the threat of exposure increases, tighter visitor restrictions will be implemented again.

#F29 Actions Across the World
Posted 3 years ago on Feb. 29, 2012, 5:05 p.m. EST by OccupyWallSt
Today, protests are underway in cities across the world. For background on why we're occupying to Shut Down The Corporations and the American Legislative Exchange Council, see here. Follow @F29PDX, @OccupyWallSt, @OWSTactical, #F29 (#29F for European actions), and #ALEC on Twitter. Because there are large numbers of decentralized actions today, we will do our best to make updates and include links to individual livestreams below.
Updated, 3/1:Via Shut Down the Corporations:
As an overview, the actions today varied from sit-ins and pickets to street theater and banner drops. There were many creative actions including a foreclosure on Citibank, a "Corporate Debutant Ball" in Salt Lake City, teach-ins in Norman, OK and Naples, FL, actions targeting Pfizer, the Koch Brothers and Bank of America in New York, and a delicious Ice Cream Bloc in Oakland. Three distribution centers of Wal-Mart were shut down in a coordinated southern California action, as well as the World Corporate Headquarters of Pfizer in Connecticut. Further ALEC corporations targeted included Monsanto in Washington D.C., AT&T in Kansas City, MO and Atlanta, an action at the BP trial in New Orleans, Bank of America in Charlotte, PNM in Alburqurque, Altria in Richmond, and Peabody Coal in St. Louis. Dozens of other cities took action as part of F29 including Denver, Minneapolis, Louisville, Winston-Salem, and many others. We are proud to say the tone of the actions today remained jubilant and focused even in the face of police repression.

Now entering its third year, the Corvette ZR1 continues to prove itself as a no-holds-barred, no-excuses, all-American sports car that has what it takes to beat all comers. Its 6.2-liter supercharged LS9 V-8 pumps out an incredible 638 hp and 604 lb-ft of torque, enough to make this the first production Corvette capable of crossing the 200-mph threshold. As for the other Corvette models? The base car continues with the 6.2-liter LS3 V-8 boasting 430 hp and 424 lb-ft -- or 436 hp and 428 lb-ft if you opt for the freer-breathing exhaust system. The Grand Sport, which accounts for a large portion of coupe and convertible sales, uses the base engine but gets a number of upgrades. These include Z06 styling cues, its own gear (manual transmission) and rear-axle ratios, and available magnetic ride control. The 505-hp, boy-racer Z06 neatly fills the gap between the base model and the ZR1 and can be had in a limited-edition Carbon model, which adds a number of performance and cosmetic upgrades, including ZR1-style aerodynamic aids, carbon-ceramic Brembo brakes, and magnetic ride control. In fact, every Corvette model has numerous performance and cosmetic packages that allow buyers to customize their car right down to the color of the brake calipers. Interior quality remains the Corvette's Achilles' heal, although a redesigned steering wheel; new, more heavily bolstered seats; and additional padding for the console and arm rest have addressed a few of its shortcomings. Regardless, in its segment, the Corvette offers unrivaled bang for the buck.

Hard clams, or quahogs, can be found in muddy intertidal sands to depths of 120ft. The northern quahog (Mercenaria mercenaria) grows 5-6" in length and ranges from the Gulf of St. Lawrence to Florida. The interior of the shell is often marked by a dark purple border along the edge and the center of the outside of shells maybe smooth. Some smaller specimens exhibit zigzagging lines on the exterior and are classified as a subspecies (M. mercenaria notata). The southern quahog (M. campechiensis) is similar to the northern quahog in appearance but is generally more robust, has a rough exterior, and is mostly white on the interior of the shells. Southern quahogs range from New Jersey to Florida, and around the Gulf of Mexico. The overlap in the range of these clams results in hybrids which may exhibit characteristics of both species. Hard clams are harvested commercially and represent an important aquaculture industry in Florida.

Knowing who the true heroes arePosted by on November 6, 2012 – 4:01 pm
As Steelers Jonathan Dwyer, James Harrison, Doug Legursky and Brett Keisel entered one of the hangers at the Air National Guard's 171st Air Refueling Wing in Pittsburgh, you could see the excitement on the faces of those who serve this country, seeing players they cheer for on Sunday afternoons right in front of them.
But for the players, on this day they weren't the heroes, the ones people look up to. Not even close. It was the men and women in uniform who were the heroes.
"You get to see what they do to protect and serve us and give us the freedoms we have," said Harrison. "It's obvious they are the true heroes. We go out here and play a game and we consider it battle. They go out there and put their lives on the line and they don't come home. I'm going to come home after a game."
The visit, done in conjunction with USAA, was a part of the Steelers "Salute to Service" in honor of Veteran's Day. The players were there to say thank you to those who serve the country and learn a little bit more about what they do on a daily basis.
Part of the tour of the base included learning the different aspects of their job, from refueling planes in battle to helping close to home as some members were recently deployed to the New York/New Jersey area to help in Hurricane Sandy recovery efforts.
"It's a great opportunity and we are so happy they came here," said Colonel Tony Carrelli, Wing Commander at the guard base. "One of the great things about a guard unit is we are a community Air Force, we are the Pittsburgh Air Force. We are strong to our ties to the community. There is such great support. Any time we can host someone on the base it's a great opportunity because they are so supportive of us.
"As you walk around the base you see Pennsylvania. The patches have been adapted to show that. We go all over the world supporting missions and people look at us and say you are Pittsburgh."
The most obvious symbol of Pittsburgh is the Steelers logo and Terrible Towel painted on the nose of one of the KC-135 Stratotanker jets that are used for refueling missions.
"To see the picture on the jet explains it all and how much pride they have in Pittsburgh," said Dwyer, who has family that served in the military. "It's a great feeling and it motivates you more to go out and do our jobs each and every day because they fight for us to be able to do what we do every day, wake up and not worry about anything."
The players got a tour of the jet, with Harrison sitting in the pilot's seat trying to convince them to let him turn on the jets, to Legursky, Dwyer and Keisel, with his son Jacob, touring the entire plane, including climbing down into a small area and seeing how the fuel is transferred from one plane to another.
"It was awesome," said Keisel, who has family currently serving and many military veterans in his family as well. "All of these people here are our heroes. They protect us, protect all of our rights. To have the opportunity to and bring my son and show him about these guys and what they do is awesome."
The team was presented with a photo of the plane, and in return the unit was given a helmet signed by Dan Rooney, Sr., Art Rooney II, Mike Tomlin and the four players on hand.
The most exciting part for the players, though, was when they had the opportunity to sign where the logo is painted on the nose of the plane and the realization that every time that plane takes flight for a mission, their names will be on there.
"That plane going overseas and on so many missions, with that art on the nose of the plane and to have my signature on it and it continue to serve our country, it's a pretty big honor," said Legursky, whose father Wayne served in the 82nd Airborne. "Coming from a military family it's close to my heart. To come out here and hang out with people who serve is the least I can do for everything they do for our country."

The telecommunications industry is a rapidly expanding employment sector in the UK. As mobile phones and computers become increasingly entrenched in the daily lives of people throughout the world, (the average British household spends more than £60 each month on telecom), the demand for larger and more efficient networks steadily grows, as does the need for innovative technologies. In the past decade, the number of worldwide mobile subscriptions has increased fivefold. This, of course, means many new jobs are being created within the sector, and there are now many employment opportunities for skilled professionals in all regions of the UK.
Recruitment agencies routinely seek to fill vacancies for roles in mobile communications, telephone systems, and communications protocol. While academic degrees and professional qualifications are generally a substantial advantage for job seekers, they are not typically required for many junior positions in the sector.
Salaries start at roughly £16K for most entry-level positions, while the most experienced and skilled professionals can earn as much as £65K annually. Nationwide, however, the average income for telecom workers is approximately £30K. Salaries in London and the Home countries tend to be especially high when compared with other regions in the UK.

Organize photos in folders and albums
The easiest way to move or rearrange photos in Picasa is to drag and drop them at their desired location. Before you get started, it's important to understand the implications of the move: Moving a photo to a different folder in Picasa also moves the photo on your hard drive. Moving a photo to an album, on the other hand, has no impact on the photo's actual file location on your hard drive.
Follow these steps:
- Select the photos you'd like to move. You can only drag and drop photos from one folder or album at a time.
- Click on a selected photo and hold the mouse key down while you drag your photos to their new location. Once your cursor is at the desired location, release the mouse key to drop them in the new folder or album.
If you have a large collection of photos, it may be easier to drag them to the folder list on the left-hand side of your library and drop them once the desired folder or album is highlighted.
You can also learn how to easily move photos to a new folder or combine photos from multiple folders into a new album.
Mac users: Photos in the 'iPhoto Library' collection are read-only in Picasa. This has a few important implications when moving photos in Picasa:
- You can't move photos from one iPhoto Library folder to another.
- You can't move photos into the iPhoto Library collection.
- When you attempt to move a photo out of the 'iPhoto Library' collection, Picasa will instead ask your permission to make a new copy.
Learn more about how Picasa works with the iPhoto Library.

The diff.gz, the .dsc, and the .orig.tar.gz are the files that
Debian's packaging tools know about. Together, they are used by the
tool dpkg-source to create the directory you recieved.
There are two common ways a build directory is laid out. One is to
have the .orig.tar.gz be the upstream sources, and the diff.gz
contains the debian/ directory and it may contain modifications made
to the upstream source code. (Or these modifications may be stored in
patch files in the debian/directory, in which case the diff.gz
contains them as a diff within a diff)
The other common way that a build directory is laid out is "tarball
within a tarball" form. This is what you've got here. This is created
and managed with the "dbs" build system (apt-get install dbs) and
small example of a dbs-packaged package is hello-dbs. (I'm not sure,
but there might also be other systems that do this). There should be a
rule in debian/rules (or in a makefile included by debian/rules) whose
job is to unpack the interior tarball and apply the patches. In the
case of dbs, this rule is named "setup", and to get the expanded build
tree you need to run the following from inside the directory.
$ debian/rules setup
