Zanzibar — POLISI Morogoro and JKU of Zanzibar netballers maintained their impressive performance in the on-going Mapinduzi Cup here.
In the first match Polisi Morogoro sneaked out with a hard fought 44-42 win over KVZ of Zanzibar, while JKU whitewashed Sogea 75-28. Polisi Goal Attacker (GA) Fatma Chazi and Goal Shooter (GS) Yusra Jadi were unstoppable throughout the match.
They scored goals almost at will. The JKU versus Sogea match was one way traffic as the former commanded the game from the word go. JKU capitalized on experienced Masika Komba (GA) and Magreth John (GS) to easily emerge victorious.
The duo turned the match to a mere training session as they scored easy goals. In the first quarter JKU took 18-7 lead and stretched their lead to 36- 12 at the breather. Sogea came a bit stronger in the third quarter in which they managed to score 19 goals but it was not enough to tally 52 goals scored by their opponents.

I bought these shorts to wear while swimming, I have been on a weightloss journey and my legs are showing some unsightly vericose veins. The shorts fit too small, and they are extremly noisy. I have not yet worn them in the water.. need to lose some more weight before they fit.

Fits like a tight bike short. Good mobility even though tight.
Not really made for women with larger hips and thighs and they didn't come up high enough at the waist for me.
best shorts to keep you warm. Love them!
Fits a little small. Haven't used them yet so it's hard to tell how they'll hold up.
The waist rode too low for my comfort. Although it did fit around the thighs fine and they didn't feel too tight. The neoprene itself seemed of good quality but I couldn't use it because of the uncomfortable fit. So I didn't use it and sent it back.
Much thicker than picture suggested. also not very comfortable.
This is a great product, especially if you don't want to take the time to put on a shorty wetsuit. These shorts are easier to get on then a wetsuit & more practical especially in the heat. I only wish they had more color options & Sizes available.

(AP Photo/Nasser Nasser)
CAIRO: Egypt's opposition said Sunday it will appeal a referendum seen as voting in a new constitution backed by ruling Islamists, and vowed to keep up a struggle that has spawned weeks of protests and instability.
Polling "fraud and violations" skewed the results of the two-stage referendum, the final leg of which was held Saturday, the National Salvation Front charged.
"We are asking the [electoral] commission to investigate the irregularities before announcing official results," a Front member, Amr Hamzawy, told a Cairo news conference.
"The referendum is not the end of the road. It is only one battle," said another member, Abdel Ghaffar Shokr, reading from a Front statement. "We will continue the fight for the Egyptian people."
Germany immediately backed the call for a transparent investigation into the results. Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle said: "The new constitution can only meet with acceptance if the process of its adoption is beyond reproach." But Westerwelle said it was "not the power of the street but rather the spirit of compromise and tolerance that should determine the way forward for Egypt."
Egyptian state media and President Mohammad Mursi's supporters in the Muslim Brotherhood said the constitution was passed with the support of nearly two-thirds of voters, based on unofficial tallies.
A member of the national electoral commission, Mohammad al-Tanobly, told AFP that "no official date has been fixed" for the publication of the final referendum results. The state news agency MENA had reported they would be released Monday.
Opposition to the charter has fueled demonstrations for the past month, some of them violent, such as clashes that wounded 62 people in Egypt's second city of Alexandria Friday, the day before the final round of voting. The army has deployed troops to reinforce police since Dec. 5 clashes outside the presidential palace in Cairo killed eight people and injured more than 600 others.
Mursi and Islamists backing the charter say it is necessary to restore stability after the early 2011 revolution that toppled President Hosni Mubarak.
But the opposition sees the new constitution as a wedge to usher in creeping Islamic law through a weakening of human rights, particularly women's rights, and undermine the independence of the judiciary.
It accuses Mursi of steamrolling through the referendum without consensus on the charter, and argues that a low voter turnout of around 32 percent undermined the plebiscite's legitimacy.
Approval of the constitution would trigger parliamentary elections in two months' time to replace an Islamist-dominated assembly that was dissolved by Egypt's constitutional court before Mursi's election in June.
Mursi's vice president, Mahmoud Mekki, whose post is not mentioned in the new charter, announced Saturday that he was resigning. He said he had wanted to resign in November but stayed on to help manage the political crisis.
State television reported that central bank Governor Faruq al-Okda had also resigned, but later cited a Cabinet source as denying it.
The governor turned up at a meeting of the government's economic team Sunday in an apparent attempt to quell nervousness over the state of the economy.
The government stressed the urgency of stability.
"The financial and economic situations are dire," government spokesman Alaa al-Hadidi said, according to comments published by the state news agency MENA. With the referendum behind, Hadidi said economic policies must be at the center of attention, adding that the government will work to improve the investment environment to attract foreign investors.
In the meantime, all legislative business is being handled by the senate, also under the sway of Islamists.
In a gesture to "national dialogue," Mursi Saturday appointed 90 additional senators, including eight women and 12 Christians.
The U.S. government, which sees Egypt as a pillar of its Middle East policy and provides Cairo with $1.3 billion annually in military aid, has deliberately avoided public comment on the crisis.
But the Republican chairwoman of the Foreign Affairs Committee in the U.S. House of Representatives, Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, called the vote "a defeat for the Egyptian people" at the hands of "an Islamic dictatorship."
She said: "We must use our aid as leverage to promote democratic reforms, support freedom of religion, and enshrine the protection of minority communities."
A Foreign Ministry spokesman in Iran, whose diplomatic ties with Cairo were cut three decades ago, said the new constitution would advance the goals of all Egyptians.

Register now for the 8th annual MobileBeat, July 13-14, where the best and brightest will be exploring the latest strategies and tactics in the mobile space. Insight Venture Partners isn't slowing down after Yahoo's $1.1 billion Tumblr acquisition last week. The firm announced today that it has raised a whopping new $2.57 billion fund (Insight Venture Partners VIII) dedicated to investments in e-commerce, software, Internet, and data services businesses. The New York-based firm says existing investors accounted for the majority of the new fund's capital. Since the fund is so large, Insight Venture Partners will be able to make investments worth up to around $300 million. The firm says it will explore both minor and controlling investments in growth-stage and late-stage companies. Even though it's a global investment company, the massive new fund could be good news for the NYC startup community. At this point, all eyes are on the lookout for the next Tumblr, and I'm sure IVP wants to recreate that exit with the new fund. Insight Venture Partners' portfolio includes Twitter, Flipboard, and Shutterstock. Since its founding in 1996, the firm says it has raised more than $7.6 billion.

It's a kick in the teeth to the promoters of "ObamaCare," but this narrow limitation of the Affordable Care Act is really just a minor hiccup compared to the large number of people now enrolled. NBC News reports on the US Supreme Court ruling in the so called Hobby Lobby case:
… Read the rest
The U.S. Supreme Court, in a limited decision, ruled Monday that closely held, for-profit companies can claim a religious exemption to the Obamacare requirement that they provide health insurance coverage for contraceptives.
For-profit corporations — including Conestoga Wood of Pennsylvania, owned by a family of Mennonite Christians, and Hobby Lobby, a family-owned chain of arts and crafts stores founded on Biblical principles — had challenged a provision of the Affordable Care Act.
It requires companies with more than 50 employees to cover preventive care services, which include such contraceptives as morning-after pills, diaphragms and IUDs.
The court's ruling Monday was 5-4, written by Justice Samuel Alito, and the decision appeared to be extremely limited.

Food photography is a large part of Solid Gold Eats. I'm a visual learner, so I prefer to show photos of the food I make alongside the recipes so people can see what a recipe is expected to produce.
My food photography has been accepted on food photography sites such as:
Tastespotting: http://www.tastespotting.com/profile/solidgoldeats/submissions/1
and foodgawker: http://foodgawker.com/post/archive/solidgoldeats/
It has taken me a while to learn about food photography best practices. Just take a look at the first few recipes I ever posted and compare them to something from last week and you'll see the difference that I'm talking about.
While I'm certainly not THE expert on food photography, I want to share what I know with you so that you can be a great food photographer, too. I will continue to update this page as I write on these topics, but here's what I have for you so far:
Lighting – Trying to take a great photo of food at 8PM and wonder why it's yellow and dark? This post outlines the lighting set up I use (Lowel Ego Lights) and reasons why I purchased it. It's reasonably affordable and my photos are better than ever since I started using it.
Cameras – Is a DSLR right for you? Here I outline things to think about when purchasing a camera for food photography.

The reason why Subramanian Swamy could not join the BJP earlier was due to the perception of a sizeable section of the senior leadership that he was too outspoken to conform to party discipline. A BJP MP pointed out that they had only just recently managed to get rid of one loose canon,Ram Jethmalani,who had caused considerable embarrassment to the party. However,the BJP was left with no option since RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat was pressing for Swamys admission. One reason the RSS is sold on Swamy is that he took up the Ram Sethu issue and prevented the DMK from building a ship channel. The RSS also feels that unlike the Delhi party leadership,Swamy will not pussyfoot about attacking the Congresss first family. Swamys role in the fall of the Atal Bihari Vajpayee government in 1999 has been forgiven. In the BJP,one man solidly rooting for Swamy was Nitin Gadkari. Swamy has taken over from Gadkari the responsibility of drafting the BJPs vision document. Since Murli Manohar Joshi has been entrusted with the task of preparing the partys manifesto,it remains to be seen if the two documents will reflect a common vision.
Warrant of precedence
Sushma Swaraj and Arun Jaitley,leaders of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha,made their unhappiness clear when they were seated in the third row of the Red Fort VIP enclosure for Prime Minister Manmohan Singhs Independence Day address. They accused the ruling party of trying to downgrade the Opposition. Three ministers,Ghulam Nabi Azad,Anand Sharma and Salman Khurshid,tried to mollify them. Azad offered the empty seat meant for his wife. Swaraj declined to sit as a ministers spouse and said it was a case of adding insult to injury. The protocol officer in charge of seating arrangements claimed that he had gone strictly by the rule book and that leaders of the Opposition came after cabinet ministers. President Pranab Mukherjee tried to make amends for the mornings ruffled feelings by insisting that at the Rashtrapati Bhavan evening reception,Jaitley,Swaraj and L K Advani be included in the inner cordon enclosure which is reserved for the president,prime minister and just a handful of other VVIPs.
Marked discourtesy
At the start of the Parliament session,Speaker Meira Kumar hosted a lunch for all MPs. She waited along with leader of the Opposition Sushma Swaraj and NDA chairperson L K Advani to greet the chief guest,Prime Minister Manmohan Singh,who was a little late. However,Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kamal Nath,who was not part of the reception committee ate his lunch even before Manmohan Singh arrived and departed just as Singh was sitting down to eat. Nath would never have dared show Congress president Sonia Gandhi such discourtesy.

Bursaspor kept up their pursuit of Trabzonspor at the top of the Super Lig with a 5-1 thrashing of Genclerbirligi.
The home side were on level terms after Soner Aydogdu cancelled out Sercan Yildirim's opener, but the visitors took command before half-time through Ozan Ipek and Yildirim's second goal on 45 minutes.
Turgay Bahadir and Leonal Nunez added to Bursaspor's tally. The win sees Bursaspor close the gap on the league leaders to five points.
Fenerbahce are four points further behind in third after Alex scored the only goal of the game after 77 minutes to beat Sivasspor.
And Kayserispor are just a point behind Fener in fourth after a 2-0 won at home to Bucaspor, substitute Omer Sismanoglu scoring twice in the last ten minutes.
In the day's other game Antalyaspor and Ankaragucu drew 2-2. Necati Ates gave the home side the lead before Michal Zewlakow and Marek Sapara hit back for Ankaragucu, with a 79th-minute penalty from Ates ensuring the spoils were shared.

Housing Damage
Housing Damage Billing Information
Residential Life and Housing currently does not build in costs to your room rates to repair vandalism and damage beyond normal wear and use. Because of this, we have a damage billing process that is outlined in the Pathfinder in order to recover the costs and help hold students accountable to their community and for their actions. Damage billing may refer to damages that happen in the common areas (lounges, bathrooms, etc), or to the student's room. All damage billing information will be relayed to students via their CC e-mail account as soon as possible, including what damage occurred, the estimated cost if available, and appeal deadlines. Our goal is to help students be responsible for their community and be invested in what is happening around them. If you have any questions about damage billing, please contact your Residential Life Coordinator.
Explanation of Charges
Community damages refer to charges that are assessed to a community because the responsible person(s) was not determined or did not come forward. These charges are divided among the students who live in the specific community where damage occurred. Individual room/apartment charges refer to charges assessed against the individual(s) who lives within a room or apartment. Life Safety fines are charges that are assessed as a deterrent to student behavior, such as removing screens, accessing a roof, tampering with fire safety equipment, etc. We do not charge for normal wear and tear to the facilities or furniture.
If you feel you have been charged incorrectly, you may request an appeal for the charges. You must do so in writing as outlined in the explanation of charges that is e-mailed to your CC account. All students will be held accountable to the deadlines posted in the notification, so please be aware of appeal deadlines. Appeals will be heard for charges where appeal deadlines have not already passed. Damage appeals will be considered under the following circumstances (as outlined in the Pathfinder): 1. If you provide information that enables us to hold the individual who is responsible for the damage accountable for his/her actions, or 2. If you provide documentation that demonstrates that you were out of the Colorado Springs area. Examples of this include plane tickets, a signed note from a professor stating that you were at BACA or the CC Cabin, or conference/concert tickets that span the timeframe of the damage.

"Thousands" of iPhones on 3
There are "thousands" of iPhones running on the 3 network across the UK, a spokesperson for the operator has told Pocket-lint.
The comment came in response to our query following a report from The Telegraph that all five mobile carriers in the UK are currently offering the iPhone, whether or not they are official operator partners.
T-Mobile has been offering the device to high-spending customers as part of an unofficial retention plan, and 3 is employing the same policy, albeit in very limited numbers.
"Thousands of people have chosen to use their iPhone on the 3 network", the 3 spokesperson told us, referring to iPhones that have either been unofficially unlocked - "jailbroken" - or officially unlocked and in the UK via distribution channels in Europe.
O2 is currently the only official Apple iPhone partner in the UK, but is soon to be joined by T-Mobile merger partner Orange this year and Vodafone in 2010.

Section 436 Amendment Deadline Extended for Defined Benefit Plans
Notice 2012-70 extends the deadline for adopting a section 436 interim amendment to the last day of the 2013 plan year for most defined benefit plans. However, an individually designed defined benefit plan sponsor's filing for a determination letter may accelerate this amendment deadline for the plan.
Extended deadline
A defined benefit plan sponsor may adopt a section 436 interim amendment by the latest of the:
- last day of the first plan year beginning on or after January 1, 2013;
- last day of the plan year for which IRC Section 436 is first effective for the plan; or
- due date, including extensions, of the employer's tax return for the tax year (determined by Rev. Proc. 2007-44, Section 5.06(2) for a tax-exempt employer) that contains the first day of the plan year for which IRC Section 436 is first effective for the plan.
Determination letter filing
In general, an individually designed defined benefit plan sponsor must incorporate a section 436 interim amendment in their restated plan if they file a determination letter application on or after February 1, 2013.
Section 436 amendment
Defined benefit plans must impose certain benefit restrictions if the plan is underfunded. An IRC Section 436 plan amendment that eliminates or reduces an IRC Section 411(d)(6) protected benefit does not cause the plan to fail to meet the anti-cutback requirements of IRC Section 411(d)(6) if:
- the plan sponsor adopts a section 436 amendment by the deadline described in Notice 2012-70, and
- the amendment eliminates or reduces protected benefits only to the extent necessary for the plan to meet the IRC Section 436 requirements.
Sample amendment
Individually designed and pre-approved single-employer defined benefit plan sponsors may adopt the sample amendment in Notice 2011-96.

The Gauchos have not been so fortunate in the early going as they have managed just a 2-3 record in their first five games. On Saturday UCSB was dropped 72-56 by Boise State which came after the Gauchos won consecutive games against Master's College (80-60) and San Diego (57-39). Both of those wins came at home with all three losses occurring on the road.
The all-time series between these squads is tied 2-2. The home team has won all four games with the most recent ending in a 57-49 victory for Wyoming in 1975.
The defensive pressure from the Cowboys enabled them to move to 6-0 against CS Bakersfield. Wyoming allowed only 11 total field goals from the Roadrunners while holding them to 27.5 percent shooting overall. That was more than enough for Wyoming, which shot 45.9 percent in the contest. The Cowboys also scored 25 points off 18 turnovers and outscored the Roadrunners 14-8 on points in the paint. Leonard Washington had team-highs in points (13), rebounds (8) and assists (3) in the win.
Playing well on the defensive end of the floor has been a major reason Wyoming has yet to lose. The Cowboys are only surrendering 53.7 points per game, while foes shoot just 36.8 percent from the field. Wyoming is an average team offensively, scoring 67.5 points per game, while shooting 43.0 percent overall. Washington (15.0 ppg, 9.5 rpg) has really excelled in the paint for the Cowboys. He is a threat to post a double-double every night and can step back and hit shots from the outside as well. Larry Nance Jr. (8.0 ppg, 8.0 rpg) is Washington's running mate in the frontcourt, while Luke Martinez (12.7 ppg) and Derrious Gilmore (12.2 ppg) provide the punch out of the backcourt.
The Gauchos dug themselves into a hole they could not get out of against Boise State as a 7-of-19 effort on field goal attempts in the first half had UCSB down by 17 at the half. UCSB turned the ball over 16 times in the game and pulled down only 22 rebounds, 20 of which were defensive. Alan Williams scored 15 points but had only a pair of rebounds and four turnovers.
Williams' rebounding effort was particularly alarming considering how well he has played on the interior this season. The 6-foot-7 forward is scoring 14.6 points and bringing in 8.2 rebounds per game, while also protecting the rim at a high level (3.2 bpg). Taran Brown (15.0 ppg, 6.0 rpg, 3.4 apg) is the lead scorer on the team and one of only three players scoring more than seven points per game. Kyle Boswell (8.0 ppg) also fits in to that category but really needs to improve his shooting (39.5 FG percentage). As a team UCSB scores 65.6 points per game and shoots 42.9 percent from the field, while suffering from a -4.0 scoring margin.
At times Williams can really dominate on the inside but often he puts up big numbers in losing efforts. The same is likely to happen in this matchup with Wyoming's defensive abilities and better scoring options tipping the scales in the visitor's favor.
Sports Network Predicted Outcome: Wyoming 70, UC Santa Barbara 60

I would suggest planning another $3-5K in up front costs for a few extra rental/loaner scooters. If someone brings in a warranty repair that's gonna take you a week or two to complete, or you get in a bind, suck it up and provide a free "loaner". As you get better at the service work, you'll be lending out scooters far less often, but while you're learning the ropes, the loaner bikes will buy you a ton of good will.
In the early 70's Subaru had just started selling cars in rural Pennsylvania. They were cheap so my dad and I went to look. The dealership was very small, and was a 2-3 man family operation at best. The shop owner was tied up w/ contractors installing his drop ceiling, but he greeted us warmly. "Is there a specific car you guys are interested in?" My dad said "The 4wd wagon." The dealer grabbed a set of keys and magnetic plate and handed them to us. "You can test drive that one if you want. If you come back in about an hour, I'll have time to talk to you." We drove that car all around and got a pretty good feel for it w/o high pressure sales. We came back to the dealership and my dad bought one. About a year later, the car needed some minor adjustment to the fuel system. We took the car in and pretty much got the same treatment. "I'm not sure when my mechanic can get to it. Probably within the week. If you leave it, you can borrow a demo off the lot until it's ready." I think he had our car for about 2 weeks, but how could we complain? He'd given us one to use in the meantime. My dad bought 2-3 cars from that dealership over the years, and the dealership grew... until Subaru went upscale/corporate and started behaving like every other dealer. He lost his franchise to a bigger multi-line outfit.
Also, if I were opening a scooter shop, I'd think hard about carrying Honda clone bikes like the Skyteam Dax, Z125, PBR, etc. They're pretty nice and very easy to work on. I've also found pit bikes w/ that "Honda Monkey" style engine to be very tough. They could probably be sold for around a grand and still make you some profit. With a little practice an engine swap can be done in under an hr. Parts are very cheap too. Carbs for $30-$40, CDI boxes for under $10, etc.
Good luck and have fun !
It followed me home.

The Dogs of the Dow Crush It In 2011; The 2012 List
The "Dogs of the Dow" strategy is one of the simplest investment practices around. At the start of the year, investors simply buy an equal-weighted basket of the ten highest yielding stocks in the Dow Jones Industrial Average. The basket of ten stocks is then replaced each year with the new set of high yielders.
2011 was a phenomenal year for the Dogs of the Dow strategy. As shown below, the ten Dow stocks with the highest dividend yields at the start of 2011 are up an average of 12.83% year to date just in terms of price appreciation. (This doesn't include the additional return that the dividend payments have provided.) Nine of the ten Dogs are up for the year, with McDonald's (MCD) registering the biggest gain at 30.99%. Du Pont (DD) is the only Dog that is down in 2011 with a decline of 7.32%.
The 20 other Dow stocks are actually down an average of 3.81% in 2011, so the ten Dogs have outperformed the rest of the Dow by a whopping 16.64 percentage points.
For those interested, below is the list of the 2012 Dogs of the Dow if the year were to end today. As shown, General Electric (GE) and Procter & Gamble (PG) would be new to the list, replacing Chevron (CVX) and McDonald's (MCD).

Uova Ripiene di Tonno
Recipes are some of my favorite souvenirs of memorable dining experiences. Whenever I make these eggs, for example, I am reminded of the first time I ate them at Belvedere, a favorite restaurant in La Morra in Piedmont. The owner told me what was in them, and at home I experimented with the proportions of the ingredients to get the flavor I remembered.
YIELD: Makes 4 to 8 servings
1. Place the eggs in a medium saucepan with cold water to cover. Cover the pan and bring the water to a simmer. Cook 12 minutes. Drain and cool the eggs under running water.
2. Peel the eggs in half lengthwise and remove the yolks. In a medium bowl, mash the yolks with the butter. Stir in the tuna, cheese, and salt and pepper to taste.
3. Place the egg whites on a plate lined with lettuce leaves. Stuff the whites with the yolk mixture. Garnish with chopped parsley. Serve immediately.

'Nigeria Soldier Shoots Christians Killing Infant, Girl'
Tuesday, March 26, 2013 (11:07 pm)
By BosNewsLife Africa Service
ABUJA, NIGERIA (BosNewsLife)-- Nigerian athorities were under pressure Tuesday, March 26, to investigate the reported attack on a Christian family in which a rogue soldier killed a young girl and an infant, while injuring their sister, mother and grandmother
Local Christians said a member of the Special Task Force (STF), set up by the government to protect communities against Islamic attacks, was believed to be responsible for the March 17 bloodshed in the village of Torok, some 65 kilometers (41 miles) southwest of Jos in Nigeria's central Plateau state.
Christian news agency Morning Star News quoted Lyop Dangyel, a mother of three, as saying she was injured in the same shooting spree that killed her nine-month old baby and second daughter Nancy, who is five.
Dengyel, 30, said she had asked her bleeding 7-year-old daughter Comfort to pray for her survival. "Dear Jesus, please save me and mom," Comfort reportedly began, as Dangyel silently joined her in prayer that their lives would not ebb away.
Minutes later, her husband, Dangyel Chuwang, returned to find his wife, first-born daughter and 50-year-old mother wounded, along with the corpses of his infant and five-year-old, Morning Star News said.
A high school student, Elisha Dalyop, said he was also injured in the March 17 attack when he was shot in the leg by an unidentified STF policeman after escaping from the family home where the initial shooting occurred.
The violence has underscored attacks against Christians in the area.
On March 14, Islamic extremist gunmen reportedly shot a Christian high school student, Davou Gwong, in his thighs at about in nearby Wereng village.
Previous attacks on Wereng village took place in July and December when at least one elderly man Danburang Tengwom a father of eight children, was killed, Christians said.
Riyom Local Government Chairman Sam Audu was quoted as saying that that STF forces are responsible for some of the 100 deaths and 60 wounded in the area the past six months.
He and others demand the withdrawal of STF soldiers tasked with keeping Muslim, ethnic Fulani gunmen from hit-and-run murders of predominantly Christian, ethnic Berom people.
The violence has been encouraged by Islamic group Boko Haram, which also attacks Christians as part of its attempt to carve out an Islamic state.
Last week, dozens of people were killed in a series of explosions that rocked a bus station in the Christian neighborhood of Nigeria's northern city of Kano.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the five explosions, but Boko Haram, or 'Western education is a sin', had been linked to other attacks against Christians and churches in the city.
Other known incidents since last month included suspected Muslim attackers using machetes and guns to murder 10 members of the same Christian family February 21 in Plateau state, with half the victims under the age of six, the military and government confirmed.
Seperately a six-month-old baby and a 13-year-old girl were among five killed in a February 23 attack on a Christian funeral gathering by suspected Muslim Fulani gunmen in the town of Aduwan in Kaduna state, Christians said. The gunmen had also tried, unsuccessfully, to blow up one of the village's churches, according to Christians familiar with the situation.
Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan, a Christian, has come under pressure to improve protection of Christians, who comprise roughly half of Nigeria's 158 million people, though he claims security forces have stepped up patrols in the region.

Heirloom Caramel Apples
6-8 small apples, unwaxed, cold and craft sticks
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 cup honey
Line a baking sheet with parchment or wax paper.
Push the stick deep into each apple at the stem area.
Fill a large bowl 1/2 full with ice water and set aside.
In a medium saucepan, heat the cream and salt until tiny bubbles start forming where the cream touches the pan.
Stir in the honey. Bring the mixture to a boil.
Now reduce the heat to an active simmer and cook, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, for about 15-20 minutes, or until the mixture reaches about 255-260 degrees on your candy thermometer.
To stop the caramel from cooking, set the bottom of the saucepan in the bowl of cold water.
Stir until caramel begins to thicken. Here is where there is a little bit of "art" - the caramel has to be thin enough to coat the apples but thick enough to stick. If the caramel thickens too much simply put the pot back over the burner for 10 seconds or so to heat it up a bit.
Tilt the saucepan so all the caramel forms a pool on one side, then dunk and twirl each apple until it is thoroughly coated with caramel.
Place each apple on the baking sheets and allow the caramel to cool and set. Enjoy!
Caramel Apples using Caramel Candies
5 medium apples, washed, well dried
1 bag (11 oz.) KRAFT Caramel Bits
2 Tbsp. water
Insert one wooden pop stick (from bag of caramels) into stem end of each apple.
Cover a baking sheet with waxed paper; spray with cooking spray. Set aside.
Place caramel bits in medium saucepan.
Add water; cook on medium-low heat 3 min. or until caramel bits are completely melted, stirring constantly.
Dip apples into melted caramel until evenly coated, spooning caramel over apples if necessary.
Allow excess caramel to drip off.
Scrape bottoms of apples; place on prepared baking sheet.
Refrigerate at least 1 hour. Remove from refrigerator 15 min. before serving.
Store any leftover apples in refrigerator.

The Next Batman: The Dark Knight Rises Poster
The Next Batman: The Dark Knight Rises Poster
Yesterday, Warner Bros. released the teaser poster for the next film in the Batman series: The Dark Knight Rises. Clever words, clever use of negative space, and clever withholding of information. Often Nolan's posters feature an intriguing image, and you have to search for the title. Nolan's Batmans have always been shrouded in secrecy—from rumored villains and plot-lines to guerrilla-style campaigns, they keep us wondering and waiting to see what will be next, and the strategy works.

Laboratories Garnier continued to lead the Ireland sun care market with a 49% value share in 2012, through its Garnier Ambre Solaire brand. The brand continues to benefit from high profile advertising campaigns and has sustained a strong presence in stores. This has enabled it to sustain high recognition and ensure strong brand loyalty among Irish consumers.
Overall sun care sales grew by 1% in 2012. The restraints on disposable incomes due to the economic downturn mean Irish consumers are cutting back on spending where possible. Fewer Irish consumers are going on foreign holidays, which impacted on the sale of sun protection products. Those who are planning holidays are also shopping around for products that are on promotion and on special

The chopping block
I would like to address the article in this past week's paper. In reading about the school budget I could not help but notice that no one from the school board office is on the chopping block.
I am a parent concerned about the cutting teachers from schools that already have overcrowding issues. Students cannot learn in environments that are being brought about with this budget proposal.
... Today I say to you that the challenges we face are real. they are serious and they are many. They will not be met easily or in a short span of time. But know this, America - they will be met. On this day, we gather because we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose over conflict and discord. On this day, we come to proclaim an end to the petty grievances and false promises, the recriminations and worn out dogmas, that for far too long have strangled our politics.
State and local governments all over America are hoping that Obama Claus leaves them the economic stimulus presents, next month, that they've asked for.
Now that we have a new president the work can begin to establish a better reputation for the United States around the world, and that means a new beginning in foreign policy.
With Barack Obama as president, Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State, and Sen. John Kerry chairing the foreign relations committee, all the right players are in place to change the arrogance and hubris that marked the last administration's approach to the world.
America is about ready to do something it has never done before, as a nation. This is an historic moment in our history. On Tuesday at around noon we inaugurated the 44th president of the United States. As we are all aware of our new president is black man. This is an Historic Moment because of the election of the first black president in our nation's history… Congratulations, Barack Obama.
This year's General Assembly began with all of the customary events taking place. Legislators reacquainted themselves with their surroundings and started the process of reviewing bills that have been assigned to their committees. On opening day, Governor Kaine delivered his State of the Commonwealth Address with all of the usual ceremony. But although much was similar to past sessions, there are a lot of differences this year.
Last week, in the opening hours of the 111th Congress, I introduced bipartisan legislation that would amend the United States Constitution to force Congress to rein in spending by balancing the federal budget. I am pleased that over 130 Members of the House, Republicans and Democrats alike, have signed on in support of my legislation, House Joint Resolution (H.J. Res) One, which ensures that the federal government is held accountable and that the money our citizens work so hard to earn is not squandered on wasteful spending and programs.
In this historic Inauguration week for our nation, let us look forward with hope towards a new kind of politics in Washington that puts problem-solving ahead of partisanship. Let us work together towards an economic recovery for working families that heeds Dr. King's call for economic justice.

I guess I do not play with my ear enough, but yesterday I noticed that it is slighty swollen. A section of ear between the outter edge and the bowl leading out of the canal. If you fold your ear forward the crease it would make. It seems that there is some fluid in there. When I lay on it I fold this portion of my ear back adginst my head and it hurts.
Could this be cuased by helmet. I seem to notice that sometimes when I put my helmet on my ear is folded down. Could hours of trail riding cuase this folded portion of ear to get bruised and swollen. Is this common: "biker's ear".
Thought I would throw this up to try to get some feedback from the folks that ride.
Make sure when you put your helmet on that your ears lay flat. Pinching your ears can cause trauma and would cause swelling.
The suggestions of a balaclava from other members is highly warranted. My helmet would hurt one or both of my ears (I have "detached" ear lobes, which has my ears sticking out more than the average person (the bottom part of the ear lobe is not attached to the face)). After getting a silk balaclava, the helmet glides on my head and my ears feel fine.
The balaclava doesn't have to be silk. Nylon or even cotton would probably work well (although cotton would wear down quickly, I would think).
Ice and Advil helps for swelling in your ear.

Oracle launched its new T5 SPARC servers this week in the latest attempt to revive the flagging hardware sales which have plagued it since its $US7.4 billion ($A7 billion) 2009 acquisition of Sun Microsystems.
The move was key from a software point of view with Oracle taking possession of Java as well as Sun's lauded Solaris version of Unix, upon which its hardware platform was based and which was also the dominant platform supporting Oracle's extensive installed base of database customers.
But it was Sun's hardware which Oracle was banking would open the door for it to become a true end-to-provider of enterprise information solutions, in a similar vein to IBM.
Financial results over the past three years have, however, revealed the extent to which this vision has fallen short.
Last month Oracle's shares were hammered down 8 percent after it reported a bigger-than-expected fall in Q3 revenues, largely dragged down by the hardware division. Hardware sales are down 16 percent over the past year and down by a quarter over the past two years.
To what extent the new T5 servers can turn that around remains to be seen. The company cites independent benchmarks which show they are faster than anything on the market.
Rob Silver from Sydney-based Oracle partner Remora notes, however, that "performance isn't everything" and points to the competitive price of the T5 servers as well as the fact partners selling the previous generation of T4 products required no additional training as factors likely to drive uptake.
Silver told CRN Remora is about to ship T5 units to four or five customers spanning the utilities, HR and manufacturing verticals in Australia but declined to name any.
Oracle's director of systems solutions and business planning, Marshall Choy, told CRN Oracle had undertaken considerable investments in its ISV program and was ramping up other forms of assistance for partners around the SPARC suite of products.
"We have revamped programs in terms of specialisations around T5 … servers," Choy said, adding that partners had access to demonstration programs, rebates and other business incentives.
Choy admitted, however, that the Sun acquisition had been far from perfect, noting that a number of the company's customers switched to IBM after Oracle took over.
But he said many of those customers were starting to come back, and cited a larger financial services organisation in New York which ditched Big Blue to return to Sun / Oracle when the T4 servers came out 18 months ago.
In an analyst call this week, Oracle co-president Mark Hurd said the company added 4,000 sales staff in the past 18 months, which it hopes will help drive better sales for Q4 and beyond.
However, on the same call, the company's CFO Safra Catz cited what be described as a "lack of urgency in the sales force, as Q3 deals fall into Q4".
"Since we've been adding literally thousands of new sales reps around the world, the problem was largely sales execution, especially with the new reps as they ran out of runway in Q3."

Termites can wreak havoc with electrical or optical cables, especially now that some pesticides have been banned. BICC, the British cable manufacturer, has tried to get the better of the insects by giving the cable a hard, slippery surface, but the slightest surface damage gives termites something to bite into.
When BICC's researchers noticed that termites seem to avoid redwood trees they tried using redwood bark to coat cables. Although they don't understand why this works (UK patent application 2 267 395) they suggest that redwood trees do not support the symbiotic protozoa that termites need to digest dead wood.

Atlanta Braves (0-3) at Houston Astros (2-1), 8:05 p.m.
Probable Starting Pitchers: Atlanta - Brandon Beachy (0-0, 0.00)
Houston - J.A. Happ (0-0, 0.00)
(Sports Network) - Lefty J.A. Happ tries to stay above .500 for his career
tonight when the Houston Astros host the Atlanta Braves in the first of three
games at Minute Maid Park.
Happ, a 28-year-old Illinois native, was 14-5 with the Philadelphia Phillies
between 2007 and 2010 before a trade to the Houston Astros that saw veteran
starter Roy Oswalt head to the Phillies.
He finished the season 5-4 in 13 starts with the Astros, then went 6-15 in 28

But there's a weight and bulk here that the Cabriolet can't disguise. The turn-in feels slightly delayed, and not because of the steering, which is very precise, if lacking in the ultimate levels of feel you'd expect of a Porsche. This is all relative, of course, because, in the grand scheme of things, the Cabriolet handles extremely well and, with four-wheel drive, traction levels are high.
The extending rear wing helps here - it raises by an extra 30mm over the Coupe - and makes this the only four-seat drop-top in the world to generate downforce at the rear. But there's a lack of edge that stops the Cabriolet becoming a great drive. The chassis doesn't encourage you to press on in the way you'd hope.
Scuttle shake isn't an issue. The Turbo Cab has got some, because there's no way of entirely engineering all the stiffness back in once you've sawn the roof off a car without adding three tonnes of weight, but it feels extremely rigid and not like it's about to fall apart when you hit a series of bumps.
Given the extra welding and the addition of metal Porsche has made to keep the Cabrio as stiff as reasonable, the lack of weight difference between it and the Coupe remains impressive - at 1,655kg, the soft top is only 70kg heavier. It's also 5kg lighter than the old 911 Turbo Cabriolet.
The roof mechanism works quickly and smoothly. You can operate it at up to 31mph and it drops neatly behind the near-useless rear seats. This leaves the roof to make up part of the profile when it's folded, much like the Audi TT, but the 911 does a better job, as there aren't any unsightly holes or flaps left exposed here. It's incredibly neat. Remember to choose a roof colour that matches your leather though - you wouldn't want the two to clash when you're cruising.
What this roof-down option does mean is that the 911 Turbo suddenly becomes less endangering to your licence. We had the Coupe in the office just before Christmas, and it proved extremely difficult to avoid speeding in. It was actually hard work to drive, because you had to be so careful. Roof down, though, and things are very different.
All that wind and noise mean that the 911 Turbo becomes easier to drive slowly. Preferable in fact, because you don't want your barnet getting too messed up. Put the roof up, and it keeps on impressing.
All credit to Porsche, because this is an extremely refined soft top. The three-layer roof does a seriously good job of isolating noise, to the point where you wonder whether folding hard-tops are OTT.
All of which makes me believe that this is, in fact, the 911 Turbo of choice. If you're buying any 911 Turbo, you're not interested in the last word in handling dynamics anyway, or you'd have a GT3.
And if you're rich enough to buy a Turbo, the Cabrio's £8,340 extra cost should make scant financial impact. So, there you have it, a cabrio that is better than a coupe. Never thought I'd say it, especially of a Porsche.

The British government now says that the Cabinet should not determine whether or not Kenyans in the Diaspora can vote in the forthcoming elections.
British High Commissioner Christian Turner told Capital FM News that the decision should be left to the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) saying it is the body mandated to facilitate the polls.
Justice Minister Eugene Wamalwa had earlier in the week made the controversial statement saying Kenyans living outside the country would not cast their vote due to logistical and time constraints.
"I would applaud the leadership of the IEBC Chairman because he has made it very clear that that is their decision because they are independent. Cabinet has made its views clear; the Constitution requests that Kenyans overseas are allowed to vote," he said.
"And I respect the Chairman's decision to choose what is practical and what is feasible and I will support him," he stressed.
Wamalwa made the announcement in Parliament on Tuesday saying that the Cabinet had arrived at the said conclusion after reviewing the tight electoral timelines set by the law.
He argued that the IEBC would not be able to register the large number of voters in the country in addition to those outside the country.
"Kenyans in the Diaspora will not vote in the 2013 elections. It is not practical to have them take part now. I am appealing to those who can come home to register to do so," said Wamalwa.
The IEBC however countered the Cabinet's decision accusing it of undermining its authority.
Chairman Issack Hassan said his commission would look at the situation and analyse the challenges on the ground before delivering the verdict.
Some Kenyans living in the United States are also planning to go to Court to revoke the decision.
"We have not yet given a date when we can start this exercise. We would like to finish our consultation with the government and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs so that we can categorically give actual dates and where we can start the exercise so that we realise this vote," he said.
Hassan also requested for the government's support saying it would help deliver the crucial vote.
"We cannot pull it off alone; we require the government and the embassies. So we will look at the Cabinet's decision, talk to our own staff and see whether we can make it," he said on Wednesday.
Turner also reminded Kenyans on the need for ensuring that the elections were peaceful saying the country could not afford to go back to where it was in 2007/2008.
He added that the British government was keenly following the events on the ground to ensure that peace was upheld.
"The post election violence was very damaging for the country. GDP growth dropped by over five percent so we in the United Kingdom are doing everything we can to work with the IEBC and the leaders of Kenya to get safe elections," he said.
"It is my strong belief that that is what the Kenyan people wish," he maintained.
