Tour Itinerary:
Day 1, November 17: Delhi. Arrival at International airport, New Delhi. We meet you outside the customs and transfer you to the hotel, where you stay two nights at TAJ PALACE Delhi.
Day 2, November 18 (B): Delhi. Morning sightseeing of the Old City to see the Qutub Minar built in 1210. In the afternoon, we visit Humayun's Tomb whose lovely gardens offer an escape from the heat. The RAJ GHAT, site of the cremation of three of India's most revered leaders, Mahatma Gandhi in 1948, Indira Gandhi (no relation to the saintly man) in 1984 and her son Rajiv in 1991, all three assassinated by fanatics. Drive by India Gate, Rashtrapati Bhawan (President's House), and other government official buildings built with wide boulevards, epitomizing the spirit of the British Raj.
Delphi: Delhi is a sprawling metropolis of 12 million, with a stunning backdrop of ancient and modern architecture. Geographically as well as historically, it consists of seven successive cities, with the British- built New Delhi making an eighth. Monuments in marble and sandstone are dotted around the Old City, whereas the colonial-style buildings from 1911 and the modern architecture after Independence on August 15, 1947, are found next to each other in New Delhi, which has been the seat of the central government since 1931.
Delhi's brand new metro system, designed by American engineers Parsons Brinckerhoff, opened first phase in December 2002 and is expected to be completed in 2020. In the meantime, one has to weave a path through bicycles, auto- rickshaws, mopeds, cars, vans, buses, trucks, cows, bullock carts and hand- pulled trolleys to flow with the traffic, looking at Hindus and Moslems dressed in orthodox clothes, women wearing colorful saris or businessmen dressed in suits and ties going about their daily ordeals.
Day 3, November 19 (B): Agra. Today we drive southeast witnessing the mass of people moving about or selling goods along the highways, dressed in the most colorful clothes imaginable. We arrive in Agra where we stay two nights at the centrally located MUGHAL SHERATON. This afternoon we will visit the Agra Fort built by the great Moghul emperor Akbar and augmented by successive emperors until the last one Aurangzeb, who imprisoned his old father Shah Jahan here. From there you can catch a fabulous view of the Taj Mahal across River Yamuna , lit up by the setting sun.
Agra, the capital of India under the Moghul rulers is the third apex of the "Golden Triangle". Jaipur and Delhi are others. It fully merits its status due to the magnificent Taj Mahal, which was best described by the Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore as a "tear on the face of eternity". It is above all, a mausoleum built by the Moghul emperor Shah Jahan ( meaning Ruler of the Universe) over the tomb of his favorite wife Mumtaz Mahal who died in 1631 and the later his. Only he, of all his predecessors, had experience since the age of sixteen in designing monuments, and the recent discovery of an enigmatic diagram inscribed with numerous Islamic scriptures on the façade, leads scholars to believe that his tomb was intended as a reproduction of God's throne in Heaven.
Day 4, November 20 (B): Agra. This morning we will visit the most alluring monument, The Taj Mahal built of white marble, with inlaid precious stones on its facades shinning like multi – colored garlands around one of mankind's greatest creations. This afternoon we will visit the Itmad-ud-Daula described as "jewel box" or sometimes called the " Baby Taj", built between 1622 and 1628. This mausoleum was commissioned by Shah Jahan's mother Nur Jahan.
Day 5, November 21 (B, L): Agra – Fatehpur Sikri – Jaipur. This morning we drive west to stop first at the former capital of the great Moghul emperor Akbar, Fatehpur Sikri, now a ghost city. We visit the Royal Palace, Jodha Bai's Palace and Birbal's Mansion. Lunch enroute. We continue our journey west to arrive in Jaipur where we stay two nights at the incomparable The Raj Palace Hotel, built as one of the palaces in 1745.
Jaipur, the chaotic capital of the state of Rajasthan, is known as the "Pink City", because of the rose pink color wash applied to its palaces and monuments when the city was spruced up for the visit of Queen Victoria's husband, Prince Albert in 1876. It was founded in 1727 by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh, who personally designed the City Palace and Jantar Mantar, the largest stone – built observatory in the world.
Day 6, November 22 (B): Jaipur. Morning sightseeing of this flamboyant showcase of Rajasthani architecture begins with driving by Jaipur's landmark, Hawa Mahal or "Palace of Winds" built in 1799 to enable women of the court to watch street processions, while remaining unseen behind finely screened windows. We visit part of the City Palace Museums, Mubarak Mahal and the Hall of the Private Audience. We also visit the unique Jantar Mantar observatory to see a total of 18 instruments erected by Maharaja Jai Singh, many of them his own inventions, built between 1728 and 1734. Afternoon free for Shopping.
Day 7, November 23 (B,L,D): Jaipur - Samode. Today we drive northeast to stop first in Amber, the ancient Capital of Maharajas of Jaipur, where we begin the sightseeing of the Amber Fort, swaying up to the top of the hill on the back of an elephant. We visit the Palace Complex, with its lofty Hall of Public Audience, the dazzling Seesh Mahal – private chamber of former Kings and queens, and Sukh Mahal, where the marble rooms were cooled by water cascading through fine perforation in the center of the wall - an early and very efficient system of air-conditioning.
We have specially organize elephant safari in foot hills of Amer fort in a private farm followed by lunch. We continue our drive and arrive in Samode, where we stay one night at the Samode Palace Hotel. Dinner at the hotel. Samode, hidden among the arid Aravali Hills was the setting for the hit movie" The Far Pavilions" in 1980. The 18th century palace is implacably restored as an award- winning heritage hotel.
Day 8, November 24 (B, D): Samode – Pushkar. Today we drive southwest to stop first in Ajmer to see Daulat Bagh and Anna Sagar. Afternoon arrival in Pushkar, where we stay two nights at the Welcome Heritage Luxury Tent . Dinner in the restaurant on the property. Pushkar, came into existence, as per the Hindu legend, when Lord Bhrama, the Creator dropped his lotus flower to earth from his hand to kill a demon.
At the three spots where the petals landed, water magically appeared in the midst of the desert to form three blue lakes and it was on the banks of the largest of these that Lord Bhrama convened a gathering of some 900,000 celestial beings – the entire Hindu pantheon. Today, there are more than 500 temples built during the past two millenniums, around the lake during the past three millenniums.
Day 9, November 25 (B,L,D): Pushkar. Morning sightseeing of this very ancient city begins with the visit of some of the 52 Ghats which are waterside platforms and temples, each built by Rajasthani Maharajas, who employed their own priests to perform rituals during their stays. Witness the largest camel market in the world during the Pushkar Fair, where women dressed in mirrored multi–colored skirts and vivid shawls layout embroidered cloth, jewelry, and ornaments besides the herds of camels, cattle, sheep and goats sold by thousands of traders who gather in the sand dunes west of town, for one week in the month of November.
Day 10, November 26 (B,L): Pushkar – Jodhpur. This morning one more visit is made to photograph the festive multi-colored environment of the large Camel Fair.

Jodhpur, known as the "Blue City" due to the color wash of its old houses, is spread across the eastern fringe of the Thar Desert. It is overlooked by the mighty Mehrangarh Fort, whose ramparts rise from a steep sandstone outcrop. Described by Rudyard Kipling, as the work of angels and giants, it is a photographer's dream at sunset.
Day 11, November 27 (B): Jodhpur. Morning sightseeing of the Mehrangarh Fort begins with an elevator ride up to the Palace level after going through first of seven gates which made the fort virtually impregnable, even to charging enemy on elephants. We will see the superb Mehrangarh Museum with solid silver "howdahs" - elephant seats, and palanquins on display. Nearby is the Phool Mahal (Flower Palace), a dancing hall for the entertainment of the maharajas and his guests. The views of the city from the ramparts are simply breath taking. Afternoon safari to a village to see rural life in Rajasthan.
Day 12, November 28 (B,L): Ranakpur – Udaipur. Today we drive south to stop first in Ranakpur to visit the marvelous Jain Temples, the largest complex of its kind in India. We will see the main temple built in 1439 according to a strict system of measurements that had the number 72 at its core. The entire temple sits on a pedestal measuring 72 by 72 yards and is held up by 1440 (a divisor of 72) individually carved pillars.
Inside, there are 72 elaborately carved shrines and the main Jain deity, the four – faced Adinath which measures 72 inches tall. After lunch, we continue our drive to arrive in Udaipur where we stay one night at the new deluxe LEELA Kempensky hotel. Dinner at Hotel.
Udaipur, built around Lake Pichola is set majestically at the base of the rolling hills of the Aravali Range.

Day 13, November 29 (B): Udaipur – Delhi – U.S.A. Morning sightseeing begins with a visit to the City Palace founded in 1559, where the present Maharana still lives. We will see the massive courtyard Toran Pole, where elephants once lined up for inspection before battle, brilliant miniature paintings on marble and granite walls and three large peacocks composed of 5000 pieces of glass, glittering in green, gold and blue.
We will also visit the Sahelion ki Badi. This afternoon, we take a domestic airline flight to Delhi, where we will have our Gala Farewell Dinner at a deluxe hotel near the airport.

DATE & TIME: Saturday, January 11, 8 p.m. (ET)
FACTS & STATS: Site: Pan American Center (12,482) -- Las Cruces, New Mexico. Television: ROOT-NW. Home Record: Idaho 2-4, NMSU 7-1. Away Record: Idaho 3-4, NMSU 5-3. Neutral Record: Idaho 2-2, NMSU 1-1. Conference Record: Idaho 1-2, NMSU 2-0. Series Record: New Mexico State leads, 23-4.
GAME NOTES: The New Mexico State Aggies continue their run through the Western Athletic Conference, as they play host to the Idaho Vandals at the Pan American Center on Saturday evening.
The Aggies boast of the best record among WAC schools at 13-5 on the year. Marvin Menzies' squad enters this contest with a six-game win streak in town, including a 2-0 start in WAC play after knocking off Seattle in a shootout on Thursday, 96-87.
Don Verlin's Vandals haven't been as fortunate this season. The team sits three games under .500 at 7-10. Idaho brought a four-game skid into Thursday night action as well, and was able to finally end the losing streak with a thrilling 86-85 2 OT decision over UTPA. The win was the first in conference play for the Vandals after opening with two losses.
NMSU has dominated this series with wins in 23 of the 27 all-time meetings.
The Vandals have struggled with their shot of late and now enter this contest with modest numbers at the offensive end, averaging 72.0 ppg, on .442 shooting. The problem is that opponents are shooting the ball better (.4533) and scoring more (74.4 ppg). Forward Stephen Madison has been the top player on the Idaho roster this season, leading the team in both scoring (17.6 ppg) and rebounding (8.2 rpg). While Madison gets very little help on the boards, Connor Hill (14.2 ppg) and Glen Dean (12.6 ppg) provide scoring help and balance along the perimeter.
Hill was 10-of-18 from the floor and knocked down seven 3-pointers in putting up a game-high 28 points in Idaho's marathon win over UTPA last time out. Madison added a double-double with 19 points and 14 rebounds, while Dean and Sekou Wiggs chipped in with 13 and 12 points, respectively.
The Aggies have had no problems offensively this season, as they are shooting an efficient .484 from the field, en route to a hefty 78.1 ppg. The team has just two players averaging double digits in Daniel Mullings (16.4 ppg) and DK Eldridge (11.4 ppg), but three others are just under that mark in Sim Bhullar (9.8 ppg), Tshilidzi Nephawe (9.8 ppg) and KC Ross-Miller (9.3 ppg). Bhullar (.670 shooting percentage, 7.4 rpg, 53 blocks) and Nephawe (6.8 rpg) have been a formidable duo down low, although Bhullar is currently sidelined with a sprained foot.
Renaldo Dixon started his second straight game in place of Bhullar and made the most of his opportunity, scoring a career-high 18 points in the win over Seattle. Eldridge tied Dixon for team-high honors with 18 points of his own and just missed a double-double with nine rebounds. Mullings however, did complete the feat with 13 points and 11 boards. Rounding out the top scorers in the game for NMSU were Kevin Aronis (15 pts) and Ross-Miller (12 pts).
Even without Bhullar in the lineup, New Mexico State has too much firepower for Idaho to handle, especially in Las Cruces.
Sports Network Predicted Outcome: New Mexico State 77, Idaho 61

PANAMA CITY — A Panama City police officer has been demoted and suspended for misusing police software to scan confidential documents of citizens for personal reasons.
Mark Aviles was suspended without pay and demoted from major to captain in June after he misused his rank and authority to access the driver and vehicle information database (DAVID) files of multiple citizens for personal reasons. The search was conducted while
"If at the time, I thought that this was a misuse of the DAVID system, I wouldn't have done it,"
Each time DAVID is started, the system explicitly notes that use for personal reasons could result in civil or criminal proceedings against any person involved. When the program questioned Sgt. Phil Himes about the purpose of his search,
Himes said he assumed the request was legitimate and obliged.
"In my mind, I believed it was," Himes said. "I would hope my peers above me would understand the use of the system and so I personally took it on his word that's what it was for, but I did not ask him."
"I just wasn't thinking about it,"
"This conduct certainly is not reflective of the rank of major, the goals and objectives of this agency, as well as the professionalism that the organization works hard to maintain," Ervin wrote.

Voucher Expansion Added to Budget
Opponents of school vouchers fear Gov. Scott Walker could use his expansive veto powers to expand the program statewide under language added to the state budget early on Thursday morning by Assembly Republicans.
As it's currently written, the language outlines criteria that would only apply to Racine. A lobbyist for voucher advocates School Choice Wisconsin says the intention is only to have vouchers expand from Milwaukee to Racine and Milwaukee County but nowhere else.
Walker spokesman Cullen Werwie said Thursday that the governor will not use his veto power to expand the program statewide. And Republican Sen. Mike Ellis says a bill will be passed later to make clear the vouchers can't expand beyond Racine.

Synopsis: The world's most famous musical finally comes to Panama. Set in France in the early 19th century, "Les Misérables" tells the story of Jean Valjean, an ex-convict of extraordinary strength who seeks redemption after serving nineteen years in prison for stealing a loaf of bread.
Unable to find honest work because of his past, Valjean decides to break parole and start a new life under an assumed identity inspired by a kind-hearted bishop, while enduring the relentless persecution of inspector Javert over the years.
Along the way, Valjean and a number of characters get tangled in the revolution of a group of young students fighting for their ideals on the streets of Paris. Sung by a cast with our country's best voices, "Les Miserables" will undoubtedly be the show of the year in the musical genre.

Just sharing my personal experience (own hardware and that of others), which is that once you prune out the hard disk failures caused by power outage, there are not much left. And in (almost) all of the power outage caused failures you can re-use the hard disk perfectly after a low level format. And that is not due to bad sector relocation, but simply because the CRC errors are cleared. Problems caused by the interruption of a write operation by the disk are not distinguishable from 'real' hardware failures by the OS. The hard disk's firmware treats the sector where this interruption occurred as a bad sector, and reports it like that to the OS. So you also get a lot of messages in /var/log/messages. This phenomenon occurs on the harddisk itself, past the operating system, filesystem and ide controller. However, you should be able to get some raw data out of it using dd (or ddrescue), as not all sectors are marked as 'bad'. That makes it slightly less bad as a total hard disk crash. Pieter PS: another tip: The sysadmins at work once told me that their experience is that harddisks tend to fail when they are shut down. What they dread the most is having to power down a server, even cleanly.

help me convince the wifey...for a sportsbike!

For those that are still reading : I'm selling my R1100GS and I want to go to a more sportier bike. My dream ride is a 929 fireblade (for no rational reasons) actually.
But my wife has put a firm rule : no sportsbikes. And she is strict on that. Since I started riding motorbikes after I met her, I kinda agreed to that rule. In fact, she bought me an introduction session to motorcycling as a birthday present with the words "but should you want to continue this, NO SPORTSBIKES".... So basically I got into motorcycling with this condition.
I know, half of the replies will be : "you are a doormat", and I don't care. Because I love my wife and I want to consider her opinion. She does a marvelous job caring for our daughter and me, and I don't want her mad/concerned every time I go out riding.
That in mind, I am a firm believer you can get into trouble with any motorcycle, not just sportsbikes. And the forward riding position somehow agrees with my back and makes me feel very comfortable. And I'm also convinced that the limit of motorcycling outside a racetrack is not decided by the bike, but by the biker and even more so by the circumstances. Forget apexes, racing lines, etc... but think clear lines of sight, road surface, traffic.
So I would not ride any differently on a fireblade than on my GS (or the kawa I had before). Last organised roadtrip I joined a pack consisting of a BMW S1000rr, a F800s, a kawa Z1000, and I decided to abandon them halfway because they were too slow for me. I ride my own tempo no matter what, no matter the bike or the pack.
But how do I make this clear to my wife? She is convinced that a sportsbike makes you go 10 times as fast as you should, and that buying one is planning for suicide. Any arguments I can use? Any experiences? Something? Her comeback is : "but you have a young child, you shouldn't put yourself in danger like that!". Hard to argue with an emotional statement like that, but any input?
Oh and no, I'm not quitting bikes because of my children. They need a sane dad, and motorcycles help keep me sane.
You do ride faster on sportbikes and yes you would ride differently than on a GS. You can reach the limits of a GS quicker and be just as much of a twat on one but TBH sportbikes - IOW - anything over 100 bhp on the road is useless. Sportbikes are just getting started where the GS finishes and their suspension etc work much better at higher speeds. Many are boring where the GS shines.
The Fireblade is a good choice being the most road worthy of sportbikes but it is comparatively useless.
Ultimately the wife is looking out for you / kids. Maybe it isn't the bike so much as you. Most women or men I know who have issues with their spouses / SO on bikes is more about how the spouse / SO rides than the bike itself.
Maybe she had a friend etc who had a sportbike. Young males are dumb and many a woman I know refuse to get on my sportbike after riding one when younger and some idiot going crazy on it with them on the back. That would leave a lasting negative impression.
I've ridden bikes for over 22 yrs and with all the options out there if my SO was accepting of certain models over others I am sure I could find a compromise.
Want something sporty but not a sport-bike. Get a KTM Duke or 950SM or the Ducati Hypermotard etc. All the sportbike flavour without the wife pissed off. Plenty of other options out there.
Edit: I see you bought a Fazer... exactly my point. Good for you.

The Loop: Fake pregnancy prank on professor has restored faith in April Fools'
I lost all faith in April Fools' Day long ago.
None of my friends came up with anything original (well, maybe one). I can only see so many fake pregnancies and engagements until they become another post akin to "eating lunch." I. Don't. Care.
But a student at Aquinas College has restored my belief that there are actually good April Fools' pranks out there. She may have went the fake pregnancy route, but her professor never saw it coming.
Speaking of not seeing it coming, wait until you see the worst FedEx driver on the planet, a horrifying commercial and the song that makes me hate summer even more.
It's all on "The Loop."

Ever get tired of looking at the same ol' pictures on your walls? I'm not sure if I was necessarily tired of this one particular picture or if I was just itching to try the chalk board spray paint I recently purchased. Regardless, it was make-over time. I wasn't quite sure how to attempt this project but after some thought, I taped off the frame and sprayed 3 coats of paint on the glass. I let it sit for 24 hours and sprayed on another coat. Once dry, I pulled off the tape and did a few touch ups. There were a few spots along the frame where the spray paint didn't adhere, so I sprayed a little bit of paint in a cup and applied it with a q-tip. Next on the list was to paint and distress the frame, which I waited a couple of days to do. Carefully I taped off the chalk board and primed the frame. Once dry, I painted on two coats of blue craft paint, which I mixed myself. The following day I sanded the frame down, distressed it and then slapped on some crackle paint. I'm glad I had the itch to try the spray chalk because it sure did turn out great!

UPDATE – 8:45 PM EST I will be appearing on HuffPost Live between 9-9:30 pm EST. The segment was originally scheduled for 8 pm EST and was rescheduled.
UPDATE – 6:10 PM EST Judge Denise Lind asked Col. Carl Coffman, was there at all any time in your mind that you thought, "Alright we got to go"? Coffman said, "If you're asking if I had specific hard date on the wall, no, your honor, I did not."
The judge also asked an interesting line of questions about the original charge sheet (July 2010) versus the new charge sheet (March 2011). She wanted to know if the prosecution had uncovered new information because more information is charged in the March 2011 charge sheet. She wondered if this came up in the process and had anything to do with the classification authorities not being able to finish their reviews. Was new information being uncovered? Coffman could not answer because he never bothered to care about these details. He trusted the trial counsel every time he was asked to grant a delay.
In fact, it came out during David Coombs' cross-examination that the trial counsel wrote the delay memorandum and then sent it to Coffman to fine-tune by adding periods or commas. Then, he would sign it after going through the formality of taking in the defense's objections.
UPDATE – 4:50 PM EST Neglected to mention that David Dishneau of the Associated Press is credentialed and was here today to cover the proceedings.
UPDATE – 2:30 PM EST Comfort break. Defense has been conducting rigorous and thorough cross-examination that is showing Col. Carl Coffman did not ask for any facts on progress of classification reviews or disclosures of information to defense before signing off on delays. He accepted the prosecution at their word when they generally stated authorities and agencies were "continuing to make progress."
UPDATE – 1:05 PM EST Court resuming soon. Defense will cross-examine Col. Carl Coffman.
UPDATE – 1:02 PM EST Col. Carl Coffman, Special Court Martial Convening Authority, asserted in court today, he has been concerned for rights of Manning: "One of your soldiers is in pre-trial confinement," he said. You're trying to get to Article 32 hearing as soon as possible so you can see if there is requirement for further action. Echoed what Bert Haggett, classified review expert, said yesterday in court, "With the volume of information the accused had been accused of leaking," it prolonged process. After classification reviews, then agencies had to officially disclose the information.
Despite how long this all took, Coffman found it necessary. Article 32 would not have been "fair" if not complete.
UPDATE – 1:00 PM EST Plans for Article 32 hearing in December 2011 was called "Operation Plan Bravo."
UPDATE – 12:45 PM EST Here's a bit of a timeline of events: August 2010 — Coffman assumed duty as Special Convening Court Martial Authority; August 3 – ordered sanity board be convened; August 12 – set six week deadline for board to complete duties; end of September – sanity board was delayed to conduct preliminary review of classified information; October 12 – excluded time between July 12 & October 12 so it wasn't accredited to government; November 17 – excluded time between October 12 & November 17; December 17 – excluded time in between November 17 & December 17.
In 2011: January 14 – excluded time between December 17 & January 14; February 3 – ordered sanity board to restart; beginning of March – sanity board is convening; March 18 – excludable delay granted between February 15 & March 18; April 16- deadline for sanity board to complete but on April 15 board requested extension; April 22 – board concluded; April 22 – delay of Article 32 hearing requested by the government; July 13 – excludable delay between Jun 17 & July 13 granted; July 26 – granted another delay of Article 32 hearing; August 25 – another delay of Article 32 hearing granted; September 26 – another delay of Article 32 hearing; October 25 – one more delay of Article 32 hearing; October 27 – approved excludable delay of time between mid-September and mid-October; November 16 – excludable delay of time between October 27 & November 16; November – restart of Article 32 hearing is ordered by Coffman; scheduled to start on December 16.
Each delay of the Article 32 hearing was objected to by the defense.
UPDATE – 12:30 PM EST According to tweets from @WikiLeaksTruck, a guard at the visitor's gate to Fort Meade has been telling public attending the hearing that Manning should be taken out back and shot.
@WikiLeaksTruck reports Public Affairs was notified, as it was figured out the guard was saying this to multiple people.
Both @nathanlfuller and @carwinb reported this as well:
UPDATE – 11:28 AM EST Col. Coffman ordered sanity board on August 3, 2010. In August 2010, the Sanity Board was expected to be completed six weeks from August 12. It did not complete, according to Coffman, because the board "had to have proper classified clearances in order to conduct the board." Preliminary classification reviews also had to be conducted because Manning's testimony was going to include classified information in his testimony before the board.
UPDATE – 11:15 AM EST In March 2011, after multiple delays, the sanity board that would determine whether Manning was fit and understood the charges against him was trying to wrap. It did not complete its evaluation before the originally scheduled deadline because of scheduling difficulties, getting into a secure intelligence facility to look at classified information and they were issued guidance to only convene and work during "after-duty hours or the weekend."
Coffman stated this was done because it was a "high visibility case and just didn't feel the need for PFC Manning to be exposed to bunch of media attention on way to conduct an interview before Sanity Board." He added not too many government facilities are crowded on the weekend and "typically" this is "the best time to be discreet."
He had "been accused of something" and didn't "need the media attention or any other attention for that matter."
This is essentially the military's argument for shielding what was happening with the Sanity Board from the press. It is dressed up as an argument for protecting privacy and rights of the accused. In reality, this likely had nothing to do with the accused and more to do with fact that the slow turning wheels of bureaucracies in government could have reporters and the public wondering why the process was taking so long if the issues with the Sanity Board were publicized.
UPDATE – 11: 10 AM EST The government finished questioning Coffman. Now, we are on extended lunch break. The judge has concerns about a government motion involving discovery evidence. She is meeting privately with them for in camera review of information. When lunch is over, the defense will cross-examine Coffman.
UPDATE – 10:00 AM EST Col. Carl Coffman, the Special Court Martial Convening Authority, took the stand. The government questioned him. We took comfort break. Questioning resuming. More soon.
Original Post
The second day of the the latest motion hearing in the court martial of Bradley Manning, the soldier accused of releasing classified information to WikiLeaks, begins today. The government will continue to present their side of the argument against the defense's motion that Manning's speedy trial rights have been violated.
The government is calling Col. Carl Coffman, who has signed delays during the court martial process, to the stand to provide testimony today.
Yesterday, Bert Haggett, a classification review expert, testified on why reviewing classified information for the defense could take so long. Lt. Col. Paul Almanza, the investigative officer who presided over Manning's Article 32 hearing in December of last year, also testified on why he had excluded days around Christmas, New Year's Eve and the first weeks of January, when he was putting together his report for the court martial convening authority after the Article 32 hearing on whether he found the charges should be referred to a court martial.
Much of this was overshadowed by the fact that David Coombs, defense lawyer for Manning, mentioned in court that Manning had revised his plea notice. He said Manning would accept responsibility for providing information to WikiLeaks. (FDL reported this here yesterday afternoon.)
Last night, to clarify and dispel some confusion, Coombs laid out in a full statement the following:
PFC Manning has offered to plead guilty to various offenses through a process known as "pleading by exceptions and substitutions." To clarify, PFC Manning is not pleading guilty to the specifications as charged by the Government. Rather, PFC Manning is attempting to accept responsibility for offenses that are encapsulated within, or are a subset of, the charged offenses. The Court will consider whether this is a permissible plea.
PFC Manning is not submitting a plea as part of an agreement or deal with the Government. Further, the Government does not need to agree to PFC Manning's plea; the Court simply has to determine that the plea is legally permissible. If the Court allows PFC Manning to plead guilty by exceptions and substitutions, the Government may still elect to prove up the charged offenses. Pleading by exceptions and substitutions, in other words, does not change the offenses with which PFC Manning has been charged and for which he is scheduled to stand trial.
PFC Manning has also provided notice of his forum selection. He has elected to be tried by Military Judge alone.
Court proceedings were scheduled to begin at about 8 am EST. Here's updates from Day 1 of the speedy trial motion hearing yesterday.
Adam Klasfeld of Courthouse News had a report on the Nathan Fuller of the Bradley Manning Support Network had a good post on what happened yesterday and Alexa O'Brien had a post on the plea and forum entered by Manning.
There were only two credentialed journalists, who managed to show up here yesterday—Adam Klasfeld of Courthouse News and I. There were two or three others in the public gallery, including Nathan Fuller and Alexa O'Brien, who have regularly attended as members of the public to cover developments in Manning's court martial. Other than that, no other press were here for a significant hearing in the court martial.
What this means is that this blog was the source for a major portion of the coverage of the news yesterday. Andy Greenberg of Forbes, Kim Zetter of Wired, Declan McCullagh of CNET, Adam Clark Estes of The Atlantic Wire and other sites or blogs referenced the post I did on Manning's plea notice yesterday.
I do not write that because of vanity or some belief that I should be showered with praise for breaking news. What I mean to make clear is this is the biggest military justice case in US history. The judge has acknowledged that in whatever decision she hands down she will be trailblazing or setting some critical precedents legally. The classified review expert said he has never worked a case that involved such "a broad spectrum of information" and he had found it intimidating. Yet, the number of journalists showing up to cover these proceedings has usually been 3-5 journalists.
Fifteen thousand journalists went to Charlotte, North Carolina, to cover the Democratic National Convention. How many journalists are in and around DC? And, aren't there students in colleges or universities possibly studying journalism that could be coming to these proceedings to cover and see history unfold?
The press has no access to court records in the case (something I and other journalists are suing the government over). When statements are made in court that are critical, it falls on the very few reporters there to get it out to the public. If it is heard or interpreted incorrectly or if what is reported is not understood by the public, there is no guarantee confusion will be dispelled. The defense may do a posting to their blog, but that does not mean some of the details the press and public are interested in will be fully clarified.
All of which is to say, when one reflects on how much coverage there was of Daniel Ellsberg, it is hard to not conclude that there should be much more coverage of Manning's court martial. In the whole of the United States, there should be more than two to five journalists showing up regularly to cover the proceedings.
Here is my appearance on "Breaking the Set" yesterday.

Hey, so I've tried real hard to do this manually but its becoming a little insane.. and its very time consuming even if i got it to work..
I have a website that is primarily video, self hosted. I have everything i need for a mobile website, im using wordpress.. mobile themes, responsive themes, very easy.. but.. when an iphone user comes to the site the videos wont play, i know its because im using flv files.. iv converted to h246 this and that… and it wont play.. i guess im doing something wrong, but non the less. here is my question
Is there a script, thats pretty much back end only, that i can upload a video file, and it will convert it to a few different formats, then, give me an embed code, then, i embed that where i want to.. anywhere. .and it will automatically deliver the best video for the viewer.. whether their on a cell phone, tablet, or desktop/laptop..
i cant seem to find anything like this thats not a monthly thing, or hosted somewhere else.
it may be an obvious solution, but what about putting (just) your videos on YouTube and Vimeo? They convert, they host, they offer in different formats, and (apparently) it's also better for SEO if your videos are hosted there.
if i could do that, i surely would. but im dealing with member content as well. and its important that some other service, doesnt eventually Take them down, therefor we need control over it.

why did shakespeare write macbeth?
1 Answer | Add Yours
William Shakespeare wrote Macbeth to please the people who were watching the play at the time. He incorporated several aspects of the supersitions and beliefs of the people into his play. These include, but are not limited to ghosts and witches. Many people in the 16th and 17th Century greatly believed in the existance of the super natural. Therefore, he wrote Macbeth to keep the interest of people watching his plays by basing his play on the supernatural which many were concerned and interested in.

Enhanced support for the Android through WeFi
WeFi is a commonly used crowdsourcing site for finding the most easily and freely available Wi-Fi hotspots around us. This frequently used site has recently come up with a more updated version of the app specifically meant for windows PC and Android handset users. Using its database of over 56 million, the WeFi shows which access points are most reliable and worth using.
Most of us have often experienced that while being in a public area and trying to use a net connection we often get the option of numerous open hotspots within a small radius. Very often these hotspots are not really for free as they may appear. WeFi uses its database to not only identify the genuine hotspots, it shows their complete details too. This enables the user to use their current location and enter an address to see which hotspots are nearby. WeFi is enabled to give detailed information about the nearest hotels or café as well.

A couple of the NXT Step Bloggers (Tony and Brian) had been sharing some of their ideas about planning quick challenge events so I decided to solicit some folks in my area to gauge their interest.
So far there have been some interesting ideas. Can anyone provide additional suggestions? The idea is to provide a challenge for kids that may have only had their kit for a few months.
I was thinking of having them improve on the line following routine that comes with the NXT Edu Robot Educator. I don't recall if it's available with the retail version but In any case I could always supply it as an example.

Fate of Mission Beach campus to be decided
The fate of 2.23 acres of prime coastal real estate could be determined later today when the San Diego school board is set to decide whether to accept an $18.5 million bid from developers or consider a recent request from Mayor Bob Filner to partner with the city to keep the parcel public.
The sale of surplus real estate is a crucial part of the San Diego Unified School District's plan to close a projected $92 million gap in next year's $1.1 billion operating budget. The board decided against an alternative cost-cutting plan to layoff teachers in favor of one to instead sell off assets.
Property sales are expected to generate $50 million this year. Additional parcels deemed excess by the district have been targeted to generate millions more next year.
Among the vacant lots, long-closed schools and other parcels that are owned but not used by the district, the former Mission Beach Elementary School is among the most desirable. Located just a block from the bay and two blocks from the beach, it is rare for such a piece of coastal San Diego to go on the market.
The district put the Mission Beach campus for sale last year, accepting the high bid of $16.5 million from a developer before rejecting it unexpectedly after then-trustee Shelia Jackson changed her position on the sale. After Marne Foster was elected to succeed Jackson, she supported a plan to put the property back on the auction block.
The price for the Mission Beach campus reached $18.5 million the second time around by a pair of developers. To authorize real estate sales, four of five trustees must vote to accept a bid for district property.
A group of representatives from various community groups in and around Mission Beach have opposed the sale, saying the dense area is already too congested. They met with Filner on April 30 to discuss the future of the land and gauge the city's interest in acquiring it.
Filner personally approached school board member Scott Barnett about the land and a potential partnership between the city and the district to develop it last week. Barnett has been the board's sole opponent of land sales, saying it's like "burning the furniture to heat the house."
Before San Diego Unified puts any property on the open market, it must first offer it to public agencies.
School board President John Lee Evans said the city missed its opportunities to buy the land and that it would be irresponsible for the district to back down from a reliable bid just weeks before it must adopt a final budget.
Barnett would like to partner with the city to develop the land. He imagines a project that would generate money for the district — perhaps public parking — and also meet the needs of the community wants, such setting aside land for a neighborhood park.
Evans and Superintendent Bill Kowba have both expressed frustration at the board's ability to stay the course when it comes to unpopular budget decisions.

text: Up for sale is a turbo kit I built for my 1965 mustang. I Had a 351 with Victor jr heads and a RC motorsports MII front end. I know this fit on my car, It should fit on your car if you have the same setup. BUT, i cant garentee it since every classic car is different. I also had to trim out some metal behind the bumper to fit the cooler. It is tight, but does work. Unless you dont want to run the cooler, then obviously you wouldnt. The hot side was originally setup for T-6, but i then switched to T-4. I machined a piece at work to use as a adaptor. so you can run either size. All the metal is Stainless steel. On the hot side its all Vband. And all the metal came from Columbia River Mandrels. Everything was tig welded and then just High temp painted. which has held up very well. You could have it blased and coated too if you wanted. Headers are 1 3/4 Stainless to V-Band 2.5in Stainless Crossover pipe with 2in All cooler piping and Intercooler Innovative Waste Gate 48mm Tial BOV What you will need- Turbo, either T-4 or T-6 Figure out your own downpipe. you can fit a 4in past the passanger side of the motor. i dont think 5in will fit with out some really "fun" exhaust work. $2000

On the El Al flight from New York to Tel Aviv, Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman wandered into the economy section looking for an aide, or perhaps just too tense after a long week in America to sit still. Lieberman wore the uncertain smile of a man in strange territory who doesn't know where he's going. The young muscular guy sitting next to me, wearing a dark jacket and a shirt open at the collar, the uniform of muscular men who accompany Israeli ministers, constituted an immediate warning against buttonholing his boss. He did mention, however, that no one in the foreign minister's party had slept in the past week.
In a much more basic way, Lieberman really doesn't know where he's going, nor does Secretary of State John Kerry, with whom Lieberman met in Washington, nor Palestinian President Mahmud Abbas, and sleepless anxiety is the proper state of mind for anyone involved in the triangular Israeli-Palestinian-U.S. non-negotiations. Abbas's logical, desperate dissatisfaction with a "process" proceeding nowhere has led him to try brinkmanship, a gambit that can either force an agreement—or lead over the brink into an abyss.
A day before meeting Lieberman, Kerry had committed honesty before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee: Describing how his effort to negotiate an extension of Israeli-Palestinian negotiations broke down, Kerry described Israel's delay in carrying out an agreed release of Palestinian prisoners and then its announcement of plans to build over 700 new apartments in East Jerusalem. "Poof!" he said, raising both hands, "So we find ourselves where we are. " Israel's actions, in other words, were what pushed Abbas to return to the international arena, asking to sign 15 international treaties in the name of the State of Palestine. Meeting Lieberman, Kerry reportedly walked that remark back a very small amount: He wasn't blaming Israel, he said; he was just describing what happened. (As in: "I didn't accuse you of robbery. I just said you walked in with a gun and walked out with a bag of money.")
To be clear: Though Kerry's reference to settlement building got heavy media play, it wasn't the whole story. As an anonymous official from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office told The New York Times, the original agreement to begin talks last summer did not include a settlement freeze, so Israel hadn't broken a promise on that. That's true. (Let us leave aside the willingness of news organizations to let an official remain anonymous "because he was not authorized to discuss the matter publicly" when it's obvious that he was assigned to be the prime minister's mouthpiece.) One of the original flaws of the negotiations is that they began without a settlement freeze, allowing Netanyahu's government to continue unilateral action to prevent a two-state agreement. In place of a freeze, Abbas settled for the Israeli gesture of freeing 104 Palestinians serving time in Israeli jails for terror attacks. Netanyahu's delay—under pressure from rightists in his government—in releasing the last batch of prisoners already made Abbas look like a fool before his own public. The settlement announcement just drove home the message.
Netanyahu filled in more of the story in a cabinet communiqué: The talks had been going nowhere; the Palestinians had refused to even discuss his demand to recognize Israel "as a Jewish state." Let's translate: Netanyahu's precondition succeeded in preventing progress, and he wanted the U.S. administration to follow his script and blame the Palestinians. Netanyahu was outraged that Kerry refused to recite his assigned lines.
From Abbas's perspective, Israel wanted only to negotiate about more talks, which would lead to talks, which would fill time. Abbas is out of time. He's 79. He has been president of the Palestinian Authority for years longer than his elected term. He has become the strongman of a non-existent state. In some ways, a strongman is even more dependent on public opinion than a politician facing elections is: If the regime totally runs out of legitimacy, it can collapse.
It's true that signing 15 international treaties will not transform Palestine into an actual independent state, one that has, to quote Max Weber, "the monopoly of the legitimate use of physical force within a given territory." The name "Palestine" in the list of signatories won't make Israeli troops or construction crews vanish from the West Bank. But the implied threat is that Abbas's next move is joining the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court. Article 8 of the statue states it is a war crime for an occupying power "to transfer, directly or indirectly… parts of its own civilian population into the territory it occupies." Prima facie, the court could seek to prosecute Israeli officials, including incumbents, for their role in any new settlement activity. In terms of international pressure, the European Union's sanctions against settlements would seem like a pleasant memory in comparison.
Israel is already signaling that it also knows how to play brinkmanship. The government has stopped ministerial-level contacts with the Palestinian Authority in Ramallah, and announced it will stop transferring the tax revenues it collects for the PA. The U.S. Congress, some of whose members treat the Israeli-Palestinian conflict as if they represented the parties of Israel's hard right, could freeze the American aid that also helps hold up the PA.
If the money stops flowing, the result could exceed what either Abbas or Netanyahu wants. The real Palestinian Authority, not the virtual State of Palestine, provides civil government in Palestinian cities and towns. It runs the schools and clinics (the PA, as part of the civilized world, has national health care). It has police and security services that cooperate with Israel in preventing terror, a reflection of the Abbas regime's commitment to reach independence by diplomacy rather than violence.
A sharp drop in funding could lead to the collapse of the PA. In February, the Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research, a Ramallah think-tank headed by prominent political scientist Khalil Shikaki, published a "Day After" report by 30 experts on what could happen if the PA shuts down. "Armed militias are likely to take the law into their own hand the report warns. Israel might be forced to resume direct rule over the Palestinian population, which would likely respond with a "mixture of civil disobedience and large-scale violence." In place of today's Palestinian majority for a two-state outcome, "support for… the one-state solution… will gain momentum among Palestinians."
This isn't Abbas's goal. Palestine asked for and gained observer-state status in the United Nations as a state existing side by side with Israel. A single state isn't a solution; it's a plan for two national communities to keep fighting. If the Palestinian political balance—and the international consensus—shifts toward the one-state illusion, Israel and the Palestinians will together pay the price of brinkmanship.
Ah well, says conventional wisdom, the United States can't want an agreement more than the Israelis and Palestinians, so it's time for Kerry to quit. This is nonsense. If the Israeli-Palestinian conflict turns violent again, Washington will face one more Middle East crisis for which it has no answer. A new round of Arab-Israeli fighting will weaken the American position in the entire region.
Realpolitik, not altruism, dictates that the administration push harder rather than walking away. Kerry's "poof" comment may be part of the push, a warning to Netanyahu that Israel won't be able to explain the collapse of talks as Palestinian intransigence and escape the consequences. Will it work? Who knows. Right now everyone involved is nervously flying into the unknown.

Perhaps you can explain what the Palestinians have agreed to as their part of the bargain. Netanyahu is faced with the same problems that Abbas has, a following that insists on a certain stance. He wants/needs Israel to be recognized as a Jewish state. The Palestinians would indeed have Netanyahu over a barrel if they would agree to that, an agreement that costs them nothing in real terms. The unwillingness to accept what is obvious - and what is true about their own intended state - does indeed seem like intransigence on their part.

The Palestinians really want what was theirs from the get-go, but have been willing to settle for much less for decades. Why are they being asked to give up more? The settlements have ALWAYS been illegal. Listen to the Jewish Israeli grandchildren of one of the signers of Israel's original documents and children of an officer in the 1948 war and general in the war of occupation:

Why do you believe Israel's lies? Arafat agreed to recognize Israel and a two-state solution long ago.
But that's not really news. Read the three-volume paperback series "Zionism: the Real Enemy of the Jews" by Alan Hart, a former British war correspondent and personal friend of Gold Meir. Wake up, America! www.ifamericansknew.org

Alberto Moreno described himself as the "happiest kid in the world" after being named in the full Spain squad for the first time while penning a new contract with Sevilla on the same day.
The 21-year-old left-back was included in Vicente del Bosque's 23-man Spain squad for next week's FIFA World Cup™ qualifiers against Belarus and Georgia after making a solid start to the La Liga season.
And to add to an unforgettable day for the defender, he has also signed a contract extension with Sevilla which ties him to his home-town club until 30 June 2018, with his buy-out clause rising to €30m.
"I'm the happiest kid in the world," Moreno said on the club's website. "It's the greatest thing for a player, especially me, to renew your contract with the team where you've always wanted to be."
"I spent ten years in the Sevilla youth teams and now they've given me this reward which I think is deserved.
"I'm very happy, both for me and my family."
Regarding his call up by the reigning world and European champions, Moreno added: "It's the second good news I've received today.
"I'm very happy, I couldn't ask for more. Days like this don't happen all the time. I was delighted to find out that I'm going to play with the best in the world, it makes me really proud to think of myself with them."

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) An 18-year-old Des Moines man has told police he stole a vehicle and drove it to Mercy Medical Center because he feared for his life.
The Des Moines Register says the man was robbed Saturday night by a 16-year-old acquaintance and then shot in a leg after the robber told him to run.
The man continued to flee until he saw a running vehicle parked on the side of a street. The wounded man got in and drove himself to the hospital. He told officers he stole it because he thought his only chance to survive was to drive himself to the hospital.
A witness told police he saw the vehicle hit another vehicle in front of the hospital and then strike the hospital near the west entrance.

FilepMotwary: You're probably one of the first who introduced photography in movement. You always combined film and photography in a very cinematic way, not failing to always offer a great result. How do you see your own work, if I asked you to explain it?
FranckGlenisson: For me a director, must write his screenplay, each of his films' sequences, create his own photography approach ,edit and do the post production of his movie himself. It's not about "making a film", it's about justifying my soul, if you see my point.
FM: Obviously, one of the most important characteristics in the body of your work is the use of drama, a word that each time is interpreted in a variety of disguises... Why?
FG: Because our society is full of drama and prejudices that put pressure on the pureness of love and even hurt it. My fashion editorials are my vision of society.
FM: How do you work in general, they way you form a team, the music score in your films, your cast...?
FG: I often work with the same team as I believe in fidelit.
For Hades, I casted Sylvia and Francois beforehand the filming procedure, in order to write the lyrics and the general synopsis. To create the music based on their words, I decided to work with composer Hedayat, asking him for a funeral march ending in a scream of electric guitars. He then sat on his piano and started to play in the silence of the night.
FM: And how did everything start for you?
FG: As usual,after night visions. I guess the project was forced by my own need to talk about the power we can have on our own destiny.
FM: Focusing on your latest project "HADES' you chose to work with multi-talented Francois Sagat and legendary model Sylvia Gobbel. What is Hades about and why did you choose the name of an ancient Greek God to title it?
FG: Hades speaks about the suicide of a hero, Francois, who plunges into the Seine to escape the part of society that denigrates him.
At the bottom of the Styx, at the gates of Hades,he finds the corpse of Sylvia. They are intended to burn in Hell, as society influenced by religion, has decided that gay people or posing naked women should be punished by The Divine Power. It is at the end of the song that these two sinners will decide to counter their destiny, merge their respective genres to counter Death.
FM: How long did you work on it and what was its purpose?
FG: I started writing lyrics and constructing storyboard by drawing the characters back in August 2011. The second phase was to contact different designers to make reality what was only imaginary. I was asked to do remixes of this song though « Hadès » must be an unique and valuable meeting between these two princibles of the underground.
FM: What was it about photography that became your sustaining passion?
FG: When I was 14, I learned how to do make up on my grandmother. A routine that I followed every Wednesday and which we both enjoyed very much.
When she passed away, it was the moment I realized that photography would help me to make those precious moments with her last forever. I would never allow time to erase that precious smile of hers from my memory.
F.M: You were one of the most iconic faces from the 1980's and 1990's era. You are now the star of Hades, along with Francois Sagat. If you could explain your character and also I would like to know, how close this character is to the real Sylvia?
SylviaGobbel: My character in Hades is resurrecting from death, her love to a young man, who is "waking her up" and little by little they getting so close, that they start to look alike. By the end, you can't tell anymore who is who, it's a total fusion ...I guess you could compare the character to my real life, since after retiring from modeling and the fashion business, I have been living a quiet life with my husband an daughters, until one day somebody woke me up and brought me back in the scene...
F.M: Sylvia, how did everything start for you, your career?
S.G: I was a law student in Vienna, when I got discovered by a model agent (believe it or not -in a bus on my way to university). I started to work as a model in Vienna , continuing my studies at the same time. Then another model agency from Paris brought me over and introduced me to Helmut Newton with whom I started to work immediately.
We did lots of fashion work for VOGUE, Versace, Yves St Laurent, Pomellato, AMICA along with others. Of course and most importantly, the "BIG NUDES" series of photographs, which at this moment you can see at Helmut Newton's exhibit in the Grand Palais, in Paris.
F.M: How different is fashion, the scene in general compared to when you first started?
S.G: The fashion scene changed a lot since 20 years. Now the models look all the same (most of them are Russian-or almost all - with a few exceptions), for fashion shows in the 1980's you had models from all different ethnicities. Models back then were about strong personality that gave some color to the fashion business.
Now all it seems a uniform, even the clothes they put on all of them. Models today are way too skinny thus back then they looked healthy and sporty. Also, too much Photoshop everywhere! By the end everybody looks alike....
F.M: How have you evolved as a person within the fashion industry? What is the most important moral this business has taught you?
S.G: Actually fashion business didn't change my character, I always had lot's of opportunities for work but I treated my private life as more important. I had the chance to meet lots of interesting people, important and famous personalities, though most of them failed to impress me. And I had so many opportunities to go out with rock stars or movie stars even to do big important business but I always refused this kind of life.
I didn't think it would make me famous going out with somebody who's well known. I didn't want to get ruined by the business and I have always kept my feet on the ground.
F.M: You always work with very demanding professionals. You started off with Helmut Newton and today you are collaborating with Franck Glenisson, who's something more than a photographer?
S.G: Working with Franck Glenisson is very interesting, because he's an outstanding as a photographer, a person and as an artist. We get along very well, since we share the same sensibility for art. He's a very nice person, deep and sensitive. I never thought he was demanding a lot, everything just came naturally while on set and its just a pleasure working with him. I don't see it as work even.
F.M: What is next for Sylvia Gobbel?
S.G: The next project is a calendar "A Tribute to Helmut Newton", shot by an Italian photographer… but "shhhh" it's still a secret...
FilepMotwary: You do realize that its been 5-6 years since our interview. I guess its time to examine what has changed since then... So you worked with Bruce La Bruce, you did some party dancing with Yazbukey, you created clothes-correct me if I'm wrong- and now you star in Franck Glenisson's film HADES, in which you also sing!! What is all planned?
FrancoisSagat: Years already? I'm not someone who's planning things - something like this may have caused my end – Though, I wish I was, maybe I would be more successful (laughs) Things come naturally, as I'm really really lazy. I don't have any agent to take care of the future. Hades was not my idea. And if it came from me, I would never sing. Never!
FM: What is your character in HADES about?
F.S: I actually play myself, like I almost do in every project that I contributed to in the past. It's very hard for me to blend into another character, you can ask other directors: it's a big challenge to forget the "heavy" image that belongs to me.
So, it's all about the legend of the God Hades and the Underworld, that characteristics that were drawn around our characters with Sylvia ...all Elements related to Death and Resurrection.
FM: How difficult-or easy was it for you to be that character?
F.S: Nothing really difficult basically. All the shooting was not about acting but like posing for an editorial story, I didn't have to play. And I can be naturally showing my feminine side in this clip, which is no big deal.
I just promised myself not to wear high heels anymore as a man as think it's a bit overrated and I find it boring. Though I would definitely wear high heels again as a real feminine impersonator or transvestite, its more challenging that way. In Hades: we are almost there, almost...It's such an interesting borderline. And the make up is amazing. There was a good reason to do it: transforming into Her! (Sylvia) Easy, easy, easy for me…
FM: How about the porn industry, as you still making films?
F.S: No, I'm not. But I never said I retired. It's just a very tough time to continue doing Porn today. There is a good reason and a good time for everything plus the fact that I'm getting Older. Even as a director, I want to do quality but to do so, I would love to be independent in terms of production and it's absolutely not the good moment now.
FM: What was the most intriguing thing about Hades, as a story, during the making etc.
F.S: It was the wink to Helmut Newton of course, and to know that it was collaboration with Sylvia Gobbel. I felt honored to be involved in such a wonderful context. The story at the end was to melt characters, Sylvia and me and also interchange our looks. Very twisted and amusing,no?
FM: What is next for Francois Sagat?
F.S: Nothing I can communicate right now.

Last year, when philanthropists Michael Steinhardt and Charles Bronfman decided to give the gift of Israel to thousands of young Jews, skeptics wondered whether there would be any takers. But Steinhardt and Bronfman's Birthright Israel is off to a roaring start. Through Birthright Israel funding, Hillel has recently sent 3,000 American Jewish college students on 10-day study tours of the Jewish homeland. (Another 1,000 students traveled under Canadian auspices, and 2,000 young adults took Birthright trips through a host of organizations in the U.S. and worldwide.)
Hillel (formally known as Hillel: The Foundation for Jewish Campus Life) called its program Israel 2000. Students traveled in groups from their home campuses, with trips being timed to coincide with their winter breaks. Everyone is back now, and the massive logistical undertaking is meeting with rave reviews.
Jeff Rubin, director of communications at Hillel's national headquarters, says that Israel 2000 has "far exceeded our expectations. Every student had a strong Jewish experience. A lot of them had transforming experiences."

Gucki: Very family friendly site! There is a dog ban on the entry to the water park is free, which at night time around it was granted and every day, the mascot 'Koos Konijn' fun for children from 2 years with a Dutch-language feel-good techno. We had a 'mobile home', so rented a large stationary caravans. There were three 'Slapkamers, bathroom, kitchen and a sufficiently large living room with TV. This busy, we had a highchair and wireless connection that worked perfectly. In the morning the day starts after breakfast with the Koos Konijn-morning parade, when the bunny is sitting on a subwoofer pulled behind a golf cart. In good weather, then collect the children behind the car and walk the entire Campuingplatz. Then follows the Vacantiedans 'Wij hebben Vacantie, yeeeeaaaahhh' and then it goes with 'Tschucku-tschucku-tschucku-tschuuuh' to Kinderbespaßung (cost) in the Kids-Club.Für rainy days there is next to the water park and an indoor playground with a climbing frame.

Immigration reform should stay on front burner
In the wake of Tuesday's election, political analysts are busily predicting what the outcome means for Congress and the country. With Republicans now in the majority in the House of Representatives, many policies will probably change radically. What must not change, however, is work on immigration reform.
