Conservative Author, Stanford Fellow Dinesh D'Souza
Dinesh D'Souza, author of the controversial book The Enemy at Home: The Cultural Left and Its Responsibility for 9/11(Doubleday, 2007), will present a lecture, "Christianity, Islam and the War on Terror," on Thursday, Sept. 20, at 7 p.m. in Cowles Auditorium at Whitworth University. Admission is free. For more information, please call (509) 777-4263.
D'Souza, a best-selling author and the Robert and Karen Rishwain Fellow at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University, has been called one of the "top young public-policy makers in the country" by Investor's Business Daily; the New York Times Magazine named him one of America's most influential conservative thinkers.
The Enemy at Home, in which D'Souza argues that the American left bears a measure of responsibility for the antipathy from the Muslim world that produced the 9/11 attacks, generated a firestorm of criticism from book reviewers and political pundits. In a New York Times review, Alan Wolfe described D'Souza as "...either self-delusional or dishonest," while Warren Bass, senior editor at Book World, stated in a Washington Post review that The Enemy at Home was an incendiary polemic and "...a dim, dishonorable book."
D'Souza defended himself and his book in a Jan. 28 Washington Post column, "Bin Laden, the Left and Me," in which he states, "All my arguments can be disputed, but they are neither extreme nor absurd. So why has The Enemy at Home been so intemperately excoriated? (One reason) can be gleaned from the common theme in the reviews: that mine is a dangerous book. But if a book says things that are obviously untrue and can be disproved, then it is not dangerous – it is merely fiction and should be ignored. A book is dangerous only if it exposes something in the culture that some people are eager to keep hidden."
Whitworth invited D'Souza to speak on campus as part of the university's Speakers and Artists Series. The purpose of the series is to present a broad range of voices, perspectives and ideas that will enrich the intellectual and spiritual life of the Whitworth campus and the larger community. According to the stated purpose of the Speakers and Artists series, "Whitworth faculty and staff are confident that Christian worldviews and Christian thinkers are sharpened by rigorous and open intellectual inquiry and by engaging with the broadest spectrum of ideas."
"We believe it is important for our students to hear a range of views on many topics, and to wade into areas of controversy in the search for truth," says Mike Ingram, associate dean for faculty development and scholarship and professor of communication studies. "Few speakers Whitworth invites to its campus come with universal admiration. Dinesh D'Souza speaks and writes from a clear philosophical perspective that has earned him both admirers and critics. His observations about the national landscape are insightful and important to contemplate."
Before joining the Hoover Institution, D'Souza was the John M. Olin Fellow at the American Enterprise Institute. In 1987-88 D'Souza served as senior policy analyst at the Reagan White House. From 1985-87 he was managing editor of Policy Review. He graduated Phi Beta Kappa from Dartmouth College in 1983.
Many of D'Souza's books have influenced public opinion and public policy, while also generating controversy. His books include the New York Times bestseller What's So Great about America? (Penguin Books, 2002) and Letters to a Young Conservative (Basic Books, 2003). His 1991 book, Illiberal Education, was the first study to publicize the phenomenon of political correctness. The book was a New York Times bestseller for 15 weeks and was listed as one of the most influential books of the 1990s.
In 1995, D'Souza published The End of Racism, a national bestseller. D'Souza's 1997 book, Ronald Reagan: How an Ordinary Man Became an Extraordinary Thinker, makes the case for Reagan's intellectual and political importance. In 2000, D'Souza published The Virtue of Prosperity: Finding Values in an Age of Techno Affluence, which explores the social and moral implications of wealth.
D'Souza's articles have appeared in major magazines and newspapers, including The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, The Atlantic Monthly, Vanity Fair, The New Republic, and National Review. He has appeared on numerous television programs, including the Today show, Nightline, The NewsHour with Jim Lehrer, The O'Reilly Factor, Moneyline, and Hannity and Colmes.

23 killed in Taliban attack on Pakistan army post
The Taliban are battling the Pakistani government because of its alliance with the United States and because it wants to impose Islamic law in the country. Pakistani's military has launched operations against the Taliban in many of their sanctuaries in the semiautonomous tribal region along the Afghan border.
But one major area remains: North Waziristan, the main stronghold for Taliban and al-Qaida militants in the country. The army has resisted launching an operation there, despite intense U.S. pressure, for fear of a backlash from militants who so far have directed their attacks against U.S.-led troops in Afghanistan rather than inside Pakistan.
It's unclear whether the recent surge of attacks in Pakistan will alter the army's calculation. There also have been calls from some political leaders to hold talks with the Taliban in an attempt to end the violence. But others believe it is not possible to reason with the Taliban or trust them, and that the best option is to try to battle them into submission.
Also Saturday, a bomb exploded during a search of a compound in Ghunda Mela area of Orakzai tribal region, killing an army officer and a soldier and injuring two soldiers, according to a military statement. Orakzai is one of the tribal regions where Pakistan army is carrying out massive operations against Islamist militants.
Associated Press writers Ishtiaq Mahsud in Dera Ismail Khan and Zarar Khan in Islamabad contributed to this report.

NEWLY promoted senior police officers should not be discouraged from carrying out their duties by "selfish" individuals and political parties that do not appreciate the force's role in maintaining peace in the country.
Police Commissioner-General Augustine Chihuri yesterday said as a people's force, the police will continue to serve the interests of the public and not those of civic organisations which do not support people oriented policies. He was addressing 150 senior officers who were recently promoted to the ranks of chief superintendent and superintendent.
"These grumblers given to murmuring and accusations should not compromise your right to unequivocally exercise your powers and authority without fear or favour," Comm-Gen Chihuri said.
Of the 150 promoted officers, 80, including 10 legal officers were promoted to the rank of chief superintendent, while 70 to the rank of superintendent. Comm-Gen Chihuri said the pro otion of legal officers was a landmark development in the country which mirrors the force's commitment to recognise and reward officers with professional and technical qualifications.
"The legal officers have been befittingly elevated in the rank to give them dignity and responsibilities commensurate with their professional qualifications as law officers," he said.
Comm-Gen Chihuri said the legal officers were recently appointed to the rank of assistant inspector upon completion of their studies and posted to the legal directorate.
He said the appointment was found to be vastly disproportionate to the responsibilities and professional qualifications of law officers. Comm-Gen Chihuri said the senior officer rank was given to officers who would have amply and consistently demonstrated that they could effectively and efficiently discharge duties and responsibilities at such level. He said as the senior officers, the newly promoted members will realise that as they execute their duties they will encounter some people who want to detract the course of justice by giving false interpretations to suit their personal interests. He said the promoted officers should have an accurate understanding of their role as stewards of trust, confidence and conviction which had been assigned to them.
"It is my strong conviction that you are not going to face any insurmountable challenges in executing your new roles, given that the force's procedures, processes and routines are unambiguous," said Comm-Gen Chihuri.
He said the force's vision was clear and its mission was not difficult to understand and various roles had been spelt out in the strategic, tactical and operational guidelines. Comm-Gen Chihuri said the officers should be innovative and strive to overcome challenges in their pursuit to diligently discharge their constitutional mandate.

I love this pineapple upside down cake from Michelle, it's gorgeous and only makes a couple so you'll never risk overeating it. As a kid, I used to have pineapple upside down cake in the fall all the time. My family's cake had canned pineapple as fresh wasn't so common in our grocery store, but just thinking about it makes me yearn for home. -Kathy
It wasn't until after I graduated college that I finally learned how to cut a pineapple. I had called my mom earlier in the day for guidance as I stood in the store debating whether or not to buy a fresh pineapple. Growing up, we frequently had the prickly fruit on the counter top waiting to be chopped up or a bowl full of it in the fridge. As I stood in the narrow kitchen of that first apartment staring down the tough looking fruit, I was determined to be successful. I began slicing away and for the rest of the week every time I pulled that Tupperware of perfect pineapple cubes from the fridge I felt satisfied that I had finally graduated from eating canned pineapple to fresh.
After having made the Blueberry Buckle and Grapefruit Coconut Cake from my grandmother's old cookbook, I knew I wanted to reinvent a classic dessert from the 60's. As I was thumbing through the book, I came across the classic Pineapple Upside Down Cake. I immediately knew that I was going to make it, and make it my own.
I decided to create the batter from scratch and to use fresh fruit instead of the canned fruit. I combined fresh cut pineapple and peaches and let them soak in a little bit of rum while I prepared the rest of the cake. I also decided to make individual cakes in ramekins, mainly out of the necessity to not have an entire cake sitting around. Ultimately though, the mini cakes worked out perfectly. This recipe makes four of them and they would be the perfect addition to the menu for a small dinner party, serving each guest their own tiny rum-filled cake.
Pineapple Upside Down Cake (serves four)
For Topping:
- 1 cup of peaches, peeled, pitted and chopped
- 1 cup of pineapple, peeled, cored and chopped
- 1 handful of chopped pecans
- 4 teaspoons, brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon, butter, melted
- Splash of rum, if desired
For Cakes:
- ⅔ cup flour
- 6 tablespoons, sugar
- 1 teaspoon, baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon, salt
- Fresh grated nutmeg, to taste
- 6 tablespoons, milk
- ½ teaspoon, vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons, butter, melted
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Combine chopped peach, pineapple and rum (if using) in a small bowl and let sit while you prepare other ingredients.
- Prepare the cake batter: combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and nutmeg in a bowl. Whisk in milk, vanilla extract and melted butter.
- Assemble cakes: Coat four ramekins with cooking spray. Add ¼ tbsp of melted butter to each ramekin followed by 1 tsp of brown sugar. Spoon in pineapple and peach mixture to cover the bottom of the ramekin. Sprinkle some crushed pecans over, if using.
- Divide the cake batter evenly between the four ramekins, spooning it over the peach and pineapple mixture. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Let cool for five minutes then run a knife around the edges, invert cakes on plates.
- Top with powdered sugar and additional nuts, if desired.

The following is an archive of a post made to our
'vox-tech mailing list'
by one of its subscribers.
So much for Greenspan's assertion that education is the solution to our
employment woes. The very jobs that require an education are being farmed
out, even as educated Americans continue to have a hard time finding work.
Mind you, I am speaking as someone whose 65 person internet application
development shop was just outsourced to India. Nearly every person in our
shop had a B.S....and many had a Master's.
Keep in mind that the folks on H1-B are good fodder for the Corp.s because
they will work harder (for fear of being deported if terminated) for the
same salary. Also, they are a natural gateway to the extremely cheap labor
What to do, what to do?
The only thing that I can see as being our saving grace...especially in
California, is our ability to innovate. It seems that we can do this faster
than just about anyone else on the planet. In the IT world, it is our
greatest strength.
My 2 cents.

Ms. Weitkamp is apparently the attorney handling Microsoft's H-1B
paperwork. She is not the worker here.
Concerning the salary, that may be less than they pay U.S. citizens and
permanent residents for the same job and same qualifications. E.g. if
the worker, say, has an in with the government of China, he/she'd be
worth a lot more than $100K, and thus would still be underpaid. There
may be an American, say a naturalized citizen originally from China, who
has good connections in China too, but Microsoft may have to pay that
person much more. In other words, one cannot say that the only abuses
are the ones paying $22/hr.
Another issue is that sometimes an H-1B is hired out of pure nepotism.
A worker may be the manager's brother-in-law, for instance, and no one
would know. This is quite common, and was cited in a Dept. of Labor
audit of the H-1B program some years ago.
Needless to say, Pete, I agree with your general point. But don't
expect any solutions any time soon. Both major parties have basically
called for an *increase* in the yearly H-1B cap, believe it or not. If
even 10,000 programmers and engineers--i.e. a tiny percentage of the
profession--were to flood Congress and the White House with calls on
this issue, things would be very different. But this profession has
some of the most apathetic and anti-activist people around.

With over 100 years combined experience and the latest state-of-the-art software and equipment, HDT's EDM technicians are among the best in the industry. Our team has provided high quality EDM manufactured products to clients in a variety of major markets including automotive, aerospace, defense, medical, and agriculture to name a few. Our machine capacity can handle parts ranging from .040" in diameter to 20" x 30" x 14" with the ability to offer surface finish control without compromising structural integrity.
The knowledge and expertise of our certified EDM technicians is second to none. Our team looks forward to a challenge and the chance to demonstrate the extraordinary craftsmanship that can be achieved through skilled EDM manufacturing.
Electrical Discharge Machining is an advanced machining technique that allows for precise, detailed cuts that were once thought to be out of reach with traditional machining. Years ago, EDM machining was used mainly for mold-making, however it has now become a crucial part of tool making especially for prototype and production work. With the ability to repeatedly and consistently complete parts with minute tolerances, EDM machining has become the ideal solution for manufacturing parts with unique cuts, angles, tolerances and materials. Materials used in the EDM process must be electrically conductive such as copper, aluminum, bronze, tungsten, carbon steel, high alloy, Inconel, Hastelloy, medical grade stainless steel or carbon graphite.
Header Die & Tool employs three types of EDM technologies in an effort to offer our customers the best solution for their machining needs.
The Wire EDM process is achieved by creating an electrical discharge between the wire and the workpiece. A spark is sent from the shortest distance between a single strand of wire, usually brass, and the workpiece where it jumps the gap (known as the spark gap) at which point material is burned away from the workpiece. In order to control the sparking process from shorting out, dielectric, a non-conductive fluid solution is used to either flush or submerge the entire Wire EDM process. The eroded waste material is removed by the continuous flow of the dielectric fluid which is cooled and filter throughout the entire process. Since Wire EDM is mainly used for cutting shapes through assemblies and inserts, it is usually necessary to predrill a hole for the wire to be fed through in order for machining to be completed. The Wire EDM process is utilized only when the required cut goes through the entire workpiece.
- Precision cuts; Wire EDM accuracy can be within +/- .0003"
- Internal corner cuts with nearly square edges
- Ability to cut long tapers that would otherwise be impossible
- More accurate production & prototype runs with shorter lead times
- Capability to accurately and repeatedly machine delicate & intricate parts with no deflection
- Wire EDM does not generate burrs
- Does not require tooling
- Ability to machine pieces up to 12″
- Machining takes place after heat treatment so dimensional accuracy is not affected by heat treat distortion
- Maximum angle for taper is 45°
- Maximum cutting height is 16.5"
- Tolerance can be maintained to .0003"
- Wire Diameters from .002"-.010"
- Materials from copper, bronze, tungsten, carbon steel, high alloy, Inconel, hast alloy, stainless steel or carbon graphite
- Maximum weight for workpiece: 1800 lbs.
- Maximum angle: +/- 10° at 12" thick workpiece; 30° at 3.25" workpiece; 45° at 1.93" workpiece
- Maximum travel: X=21.7", Y=14.6", Z=12.2"
CONVENTIONAL or RAM EDM (DIE SINKER EDM)
Conventional EDM is commonly known as Spark EDM. This process is often used when the desired cut or design feature does not penetrate through the entire workpiece. Electrodes for Spark EDM are mostly manufactured from graphite or copper tungsten. RAM EDM electrodes utilize a negative-formed shape which contains all the detail of the final workpiece. Through CNC programming, the electrode is moved along the workpiece, never contacting the piece but creating an area between the electrode and workpiece referred to as Spark Gap. As the electrode moves along the x, y, c, and z axes, complex indentations, shapes, vents and cavities are created. The intricacy that can be achieved with conventional EDM is unmatched by any other method of machining.
Typically RAM EDM applications are performed with the workpiece fully submerged in solution bath. This fluid serves various purposes including flushing away of the eroded material, cooling the heat affected zone and preventing damage to the workpiece, and acting as a conductor between the electrode and the workpiece. Spark EDM has become a standard method for machining production prototypes due to the precision and abstract cuts allowed by EDM that are not available through alternative machining systems.
HDT electrodes are created through a 4-axis high speed milling process. Our electrodes are milled to completion and incorporate all features of the final product with no hand-scraping required.
Benefits of RAM EDM
- A variety of shapes and sizes inside blind cavities
- Remarkable accuracy and fine finish control with no compromise to structural integrity
- Shapes are burned into hardened materials eliminating the chance of size change caused by heat treating
- Production with greater consistency, repeatability, and efficiency
- Little required tooling means reduction in set-up time
- Internal splines, blind keyways, molds
- Hexes for special bolts and parts & helical cut gears and shapes
- Complex shapes that would otherwise be difficult or impossible to produce with conventional cutting tools
- Extremely hard material machined to very close tolerances
- Very small work pieces where conventional cutting tools may damage the part from excess cutting tool pressure
- There is no direct contact between tool and work piece. Therefore delicate sections and weak materials can be machined without any distortion.
Small Hole Drill EDM (Hole Popping)
Small hole drilling EDM machining allows a 0.3mm-6.1mm diameter hole to be drilled through a 100mm piece of soft or hardened steel in about 10 seconds with an average wear rate of 50% to 80%. This process uses a long brass or copper electrode in the form of a tube. The electrode is held in a chuck and rotated as a flow of distilled water flows through the electrode and flushes away the eroded material.
Though small hole drilling EDM was initially used mainly for pre-drilling holes for wire EDM, its uses have since become more widely recognized. Mold and part manufacturing-injection nozzles, oil drain holes, hydraulic cylinders and dowel pins, as well as turbine blades, ball bearings and safety wire holes in hex nuts are just some of the manufacturing areas that benefit from the use of small hole drill EDM.
HDT has found that small hole drill EDM also has a place in venting, small ID work as well as workpieces with small diameters.
- Less time spent means shorter lead times
- Drilling is done into hardened materials eliminating the chance of size change caused by heat treating
- Little required tooling means reduction in set-up time
- x-axis movement 6.75"
- z-axis movement 10.75"
- Axis vertical movement (w-axis 8.5"
- Maximum workpiece weight 440lbs
- Maximum workpiece dimensions (14.5" x 15" x 10.75")

Binge Drinking Costs Wisconsin $7 Billion Per Year
A new statewide study says Wisconsin is number one...in binge drinking.
A group called 'Health First Wisconsin' reports that the Badger State has a higher rate of excessive drinking than any other state. In La Crosse, Brenda Rooney works with the Changing the Culture of Risky Drinking' group. She finds the financial costs of drinking cited in the report to be a bit disturbing. The group's study calculated that alcohol problems cost three billion dollars a year in lost productivity at work...two billion in premature deaths...and half-a-billion dollars in traffic accidents.

I was in Mettman last night. It was a great deal. this is not the place to come for 18 year old had bodies i would say the girls there were maybe 5-6 (for age or weight) and there was one couple and she was maybe a 7. I had 8 sessitions with 4 different girls all were good. Not a gf sex but a hard core sex. when i arrived at 4:30 there where 4 girls and 7 total plus one couple. i would say the amount of guys move from 12 - 20 over the night. the price was 110 for the whole night drinks are free and a not to good dinner.
Anyway it is some more info
I have also heard of a club called Xtreff that is the same but for 150 and the girls look better I will check it out the next tiem i am near the frankfurt area

Visit our Child Development web page
Our child development program provides two important functions to children and the community. First, our child development physicians provide screening exams to those infants and children at risk for developmental delay. The second major clinical care component is the evaluation of children who clearly demonstrate an abnormality in development (e.g. children with learning problems or who evidence delays in motor, language or social function including autism). The evaluation leads to a diagnosis and treatment plan.
The program provides evaluations, treatment, and referrals for the full range of developmental difficulties, including:
The program also provides multi-disciplinary evaluations through the New York State Early Intervention Program
What happens during the early years of your child's life is very important to his or her later health and well-being. It is best to identify problems in babies and children at the earliest possible age, so that they can get the best care. Because of the importance of this early care, the State of New York passed a law stating that infants and toddlers with developmental disabilities are entitled to Early Intervention Services. We are an approved evaluation center for the New York State Early Intervention Program.

© Copyright 2015 Clayton News Daily
By Derrick Mahone
During its current 10-game winning streak, Forest Park girls have won by an average of 30 points per game.
But coach Steven Cole is quick to point out that several teams has played his sixth-ranked Lady Panthers a lot closer in the second meeting.
As an example, Mundy's Mill lost by 28 points in the team's first meeting, but closed the gap to 12 the second time they faced off.
Cole expects a much tougher showing from North Clayton in the team's second meeting today.
"Team are a little more prepared for us the second time because they are making the adjustments," Cole said. "We definitely have to be on top of our game."
A win today could clinch the Region 4-AAAA regular season championship and give the Lady Panthers a state tournament berth.
The top team in the regular season automatically gets placed in one of the region tournament's semifinals game, which guarantees a spot in the state tournament.
North Clayton needs a win to keep its chances alive to grab the top spot. For the Lady Eagles to remain in the hunt, they will need to defeat Forest Park and as the same of Mount Zion on Friday, while they win their remaining three region games.
"We can't sleep on North Clayton, because they are a good team," Forest Park guard Cydni Bivins said. "We have to come play every night."
Forest Park will again have to try to contain Eagles center Miranda Cantrell, who has been averaging over 20 points this season. Lady Panthers senior Keyonna Allen and Nikki Wilson have been steady in the paint this season.
"We are treating this just like its another region game," said Allen, who signed a basketball scholarship with Presbyterian College last November. "We definitely won't take them too lightly."
In the boys' game, North Clayton has won seven of its last nine games since the new year. The Eagles (14-7 overall and 10-5 in region) are coming off a 63-51 loss at No. 3 Lovejoy over the weekend.
In an earlier meeting, North Clayton defeated Forest Park 42-40 in overtime. Since that loss, the Panthers have won three of their last five games, including a win over Lovejoy last Wednesday.
The Panthers (10-12 and 6-10) will try to contain North Clayton's leading scorer Marcus Hunt.
Forest Park coach Antonio Wade was pleased with his team's second-half effort in their come-from-behind win at Mount Zion on Friday.
It was two days after the upset win over Lovejoy.
"We were sort of still stuck on that Lovejoy win in the first half," Wade said. "We turned up the defensive intensity in the game."

Questions and Answers
Ford Thunderbird Flashing 'O/D Off'
Q. Vincent, thank you for your informative web site. I have a 1994 Ford Thunderbird with around 60,000 miles with a flashing "O/D Off" light. The transmission is working fine. I cleared the computer codes about 300 miles ago and the light just came back on. Is there a transmitter I can check for the faulty signal?
Thanks for your help.
Best Regards,
Spring Valley Lake, CA
A.The flashing OD Light is telling you the PCM has detected a fault and has stored a code. You can access the Diagnostic Trouble Codes and see what those stored codes are.

As in any professional community, there is much to be learned from each other. In this article from David Mielach, BusinessNewsDaily Staff Writer, Mr. Mielach shares ten Can't-Miss-Marketing-Tips, beginning with one of the most important, "Choose The Best Email Service Provider For Your Needs." From understanding your subscriber's reading preferences (mobile device vs. laptop) to knowing the RIGHT day and time to push the send button for your audience, this article is sure to assist even the most experienced marketers out there.
Choose the best ESP for your needs
"Before you start emailing, it's vital that you choose the best email service provider (ESP) for your business," Engelbrecht said. "An effective service provider should offer both online and telephonic customer support and training, and provide all the tools and tutorials necessary to help you easily create a campaign. Your ESP should also offer a pricing plan that fits your budget, and have a reliable sending infrastructure with multiple high-speed connections and hardware redundancies, so you can send at any time or volume."
Build a relevant list of contacts
"The mailing list is the most important element in the success of your email campaigns," Engelbrecht said. "Responsible email marketing is based on permission, and a permission-based list built by yourself always yields the best results since you're providing people with content that's relevant and interesting to them."
Leverage contact data for better targeting
"Sending irrelevant or generic emails can be risky, as these may provoke recipients to ignore your messages or mark them as spam," Engelbrecht said. "Since subscribers have individual likes, as your list grows it becomes important to identify groups that share similar interests and use segmentation (the practice of clustering addresses) to improve your results, by sending appealing content targeted to their specific wants. Businesses can improve results by combining email marketing with social media profile data.
"This in turn is likely to increase your open and click-through rates, improve website conversions and even sales derived from promotional mailers," Engelbrecht said.

One of the websites I manage had been experiencing tremendous use in bandwidth. "Sweet!" we thought, a solid boost in traffic is a good thing. But as time went by, it kept going up and up in an unreal way – something was awry. After checking the log files, I saw that the 3 bots mentioned above seemed to be literally attacking the website. After some Googling, I found that some or all of these robots have run amuck on other websites too, and are generally worthless as far as supplying any valuable traffic – so I just blocked them all by placing the following in my .htaccess file:
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
# block bad bots
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^Baiduspider [NC]
RewriteRule ^.*$ http://google.com/ [R,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^Mozilla/5(.*)Twiceler
RewriteRule . http://www.cuill.com/your_bot_sucks [R=301]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^Yeti [NC]
RewriteRule ^.*$ http://google.com/ [R,L]
# end bad bots
The above is a combination of various Googling (I wish I kept the links so I can thank the fine folks that helped me address this). You can send them away to any site you like – in the first and last I just kicked them to Google, and for the second I sent the robot back to it's own site. My bandwidth now seems to back down to normal levels. Try them out, monitor your bandwidth and log files, and tweak as needed – good luck!
Update – December 2010
I've consolidated the code, and added another bot:
# block bad bots
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^Baiduspider [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^Mozilla/5(.*)Twiceler [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^Yeti [OR]

Runners loosening and stretching. They are anticipating the start of the Rockford Marathon. Police are on watch.
You can feel the adrenaline flowing through the runners, and they line up at the starting line.
And they're off! More then 1200 hundred runners take to the streets. And with the Boston Marathon bombings still fresh in their minds, representatives say it's a day of running, and healing.
Event organizer Josh Rushton says "it's moving on and showing the world that runners in every race that we keep going strong and that we will continue on what we do."
Josh Rushton competed in the Boston Marathon. After the attacks, they beefed up security for the Rockford Marathon.
Rushton says "we had a little bit extra coming by, and extra police around the start and finish area at the beginning, and they will come back around towards the finish"
Runners I spoke with say they did not have any fear of running in the marathon, and they were not going to let anything get in their way, from finishing this race.
Seth Kopf says "you know you don't think about it when you're running, but
certainly what happened in
of the runners dedicated finishing the marathon in honor of
Rushton says "we can show everyone that it's not affecting us in the way that it's going to affect us from doing what we love to do. So everyone is going to keep coming out, and keep running and supporting all the runners and now those who can't run anymore."

Outstanding tapas. Good service. However, avoid the Paella. I grew up eating the real thing and Zarzuela's Paella leaves a lot to be desired. It was undercooked and bland. Reminded me of Uncle Ben's with some boiled seafood thrown in. Otherwise, a good dining experience. Buen Provecho!
Posted by Linda M. SF on 08/17/2007
Luckily we live on Russian Hill, a block away from Zarzuela, so we can drop in when we feel like it. The wait staff are amazing, the host (Andy) is always charming, and we love the food. I lived in Spain years ago and going to Zarzuela always brings me back to it. Enjoy!

With my girlfriend we were looking for a romantic tapas place, the name sounded nice. Food was good, but not amazing at all + portions were small, too small for the price (about $8 for each tapas), the lamb dish, was $8 for 2 minuscule skewers. The atmosphere was OK, but not romantic, I think it's a good place for a group but not just a couple...

Closest thing to the real thing in Madrid or Barcelona.... a little noisy because it is small and crowded tables...too close to one another but well worth it.

Worth every penny. We didn't have one dish that wasn't delicious. and the service was great.

I have not seen any response to this so let me try a couple
of suggestions.
1) Create a static route on the second network to route the
webserver IP to the main server.
2) Use a static route to route from the internal network
to the second NIC card on the web server.
3a) Create an internal DNS server which is master for the
web server zone.
3b) Have all internal systems use the new name server.
4) Have your gateway/router set up to route between the
internal network and the web server (works much like a
static route but you don't have to set it up on all of the
I like options #3 and #4. For myself my gateway/router does
this for me. If you use both #3 and #4 you are better off.
If you would like to talk about this more please contact

Still in charge: Mayor Dick Pasco confers with street department chief Jim Hahn. The mayor sometimes leaves work early because of fatigue, but he says he's always back in the office at 8 a.m. or earlier the next day. (Tom Russo/Daily Reporter)
Working on regaining his stamina: Greenfield Mayor Dick Pasco prepares a shake made with ice cream and peaches in his kitchen. Pasco said antibiotics have affected his appetite, and it's been difficult to regain the 40 pounds he lost over the summer. (Tom Russo/Daily Reporter)
GREENFIELD — Mayor Dick Pasco boasts that every day, he is a record-breaker for surviving liver cancer.
He was told 13 years ago that he had only eight months to live. But when a surgeon at an Ohio cancer hospital told him he could live another 10 years by undergoing surgery followed by experimental chemotherapy, Pasco said the decision was simple.
The surgery cleared him of cancer. But now, years later, the experimental treatments have led to complications that so far have been difficult to overcome.

Differential Pressure Transmitter
September 6, 2011
The Series 648B Differential Pressure Transmitter from Dwyer Instruments Inc. is designed to be used with clean, dry air and other non-corrosive gases. Each unit features a push-activated zero function and an associated LED light indicator. With the convenient push-button, zero calibration can be performed without any additional equipment, which significantly reduces time and cost for users. The dual color LED indicates if the transmitter is at normal operation, overpressure or in the process of zero calibration. The enclosure consists of a flame retardant plastic top cover and a stainless steel bottom plate for ruggedness. The pressure ranges vary from 0.1 in w.c. to 25 in w.c. unidirectional and 0.25 in w.c. to 5 in w.c. bidirectional. Wiring time is reduced with the removable terminal block. Each unit features a 2-wire 4 to 20 mA output that is fully protected against short circuiting and incorrect wiring.

Peace and Conflict Studies allows students to focus on issues of peace and social justice. The courses offered in the concentration help students address crucial challenges of the contemporary world and develop the knowledge and skills necessary for effective citizenship in the post-cold war world.
Commitment to Peace
Peace and Conflict Studies naturally deals with important issues of national and international security. Modern weapons and growing interdependence compel recognition that common security is the real definition of national security: Unless we are all secure, none of us are. So peace is not merely the absence of war, but the absence of those many forms of violence which diminish human dignity and endanger life. In that sense peacemaking, enabling all persons to live human lives, is a universal responsibility.
This responsibility to construct alternatives to war and violence and to foster a just and peaceful world is integral to personal development, education, and civic life. The Peace and Conflict Studies concentration enhances one's ability to accept this responsibility, whatever one's major and whatever career one may choose.

Undergraduate Admissions
Request Info • Visit Campus • Apply Now
The Admissions Committee strives to admit
students we see as future graduates of IUP.
We review each application on an
individual basis and make the decision we believe will best serve that student.
Decisions are based primarily on academic
preparation and performance. Recommendations, activities, and the personal
essay are factored in, but these have a greater impact for a student who is
considered borderline in eligibility.
High school students must have completed coursework as required by the state of
Pennsylvania for the conferral of the high school diploma. We do not require
any specific courses for entry into the university.
Helpful tip: When you're choosing
classes in high school, give some thought to your desired major and the
requirements. This will give you prepared for college-level course work.
There's no language requirement for admission to IUP. However, some departments have a
language requirement for graduating from the university.
Most students admitted to IUP meet or exceed
these quantitative criteria:
Nearly any student who presents this type of
academic record or better will be admitted through our standard admission
program; however some majors have further specific academic requirements for admission.
Some departments require students to meet additional, major-specific admission requirements. See whether your major carries additional requirements.
Occasionally, students may meet our general requirements, but show a lack of consistency in their transcript. The Admissions
Committee will admit a student to a support program if it determines the
student's success at IUP hinges on academic assistance.
Students we think will
benefit from additional academic support and/or a more intimate academic and
social setting may be admitted to one of the regional campuses for completion of their first year: IUP at Northpointe or IUP Punxsutawney.
This decision is based upon academic information. The committee will review new grades and test scores for Indiana Campus consideration. Changing your major will not affect your campus admission.

- The Silent Majority No More
- More and more conservatives are starting to create our own blogs. We are tired of being lied to by the press and the mass media. Blogging and talk radio is our only means left to let our voices be heard.
I have started to create my own blog as well and I am encouraging my friends to participate as soon as it is up and running.
Republicans and Conservatives fall deeply into the "Silent Majority" camp. Getting them to open blogs and post is quite a challenge. Getting them to attend a rally or volunteer during an election cycle is almost impossible. Lets face it Republicans have jobs.
Through education and mass appeal I am certain conservative blogs will bring the masses to finally stand up and be counted. Dan-Blather Gate has proven that our influence can be felt. This is just the beginning.
Goodnight and good luck.

Social, dating and business networking websites like Facebook, MySpace, Bebo, LinkedIn and Friendster, allow you to create your own profile and share conversations, photos, videos, links and personal information with your friends and other online users.
Unfortunately scammers also use legitimate and trusted online networking services to create profiles using fake names. They then use these profiles to personally target victims with scams.
You can be targeted in many ways, for example a scammer might request to be your friend so they can access your personal information. They may pose as a person that you know and trust or may appear to be a stranger, but perhaps report having similar interests.
Members of special interest groups on social networking sites may also be targeted by other group members with scams. Scammers may fake a common interest in order to join these groups and gain your trust.
Scammers have also tricked users into handing over their social networking password and username. They do this by sending fake but genuine-looking emails or messages, supposedly from the social networking service, requesting 'confirmation' of your username and password. This is called 'phishing'. Once a scammer has your password they can gain control of your account and pose as you. They may then use your account to send bogus distress messages to your friends and family claiming that you are in trouble and need money urgently. Scammers will often commit this scam whilst you are travelling if you have posted your holiday plans on your social networking profile. Scammers can also perpetrate this scam via email if they obtain access to your email account.
Approaches may also be made through social networking sites for scam products and services or products falsely advertised as free. Be wary as you can't always trust claims and product testimonials - it is easy for people to lie in the online environment.
Remember - the details you enter into any part of your personal profile or a friend's profile may be visible to anyone, including scammers. Some social networking websites have privacy settings which let you limit the people who can view your profile.
As well as following these specific tips, find out how to protect yourself from all sorts of other scams.
If you think you've spotted a scam, report a scam to SCAMwatch or contact the ACCC on 1300 795 995. You should also spread the word to your friends and family to protect them.
SCAMwatch has issued the following radars on social networking scams in the past:

Jan's Giant Buzzers
Bigger than your average buzzer
By Jan Grandal-Johansen
|Not your typical buzzers. Three of these giants make a handful.
I have always loved fishing buzzers for many years for trout, its just my favorite way of fly fishing except perhaps daddylonglegs. Most of my fishing is on reservoirs sometimes desolate windy rough places, where buzzers come into their own, We have all been there, fishing buzzers on the drift as slowly as we can to match the wind speed,or water drag being on the bung or without. But how many times does your fly line go through too fast for buzzers when the wind is too strong taking your line far too fast for these flies to work properly.
Have a look at these buzzers and see the size. Most people would be shocked, but I love fishing them without a bung. Nothing wrong with the bung its just my preference that's all. When fishing them singly or in pairs, try them when it gets quite rough, because they are bigger they go down faster, and when your line is going through the water faster than what, you want the buzzers that will stay on a better presentation line.
Don't panic about the size. I used to scrape bloodworm and have gathered many a bloodworm longer than one inch on my blade. The takes can be often violent and quick try them on the bank or in a boat they work the same. I love fishing these larger patterns when the weather suits 6lb line 8lb on the droppers, try tying red ones also they can be deadly in these sizes.
Most people I know generally fish buzzers from 16s to size 10. For these bigger ones I have had the best results when the water depth ranges from 10 to 30 feet and quite windy.
I have been tying buzzers with kevlar for a while now. I think the bodies out of kevlar look really the part. I have also changed from using hooks like B100s or any curved buzzer hooks for my buzzers. Using the B175s or fulling mill competion heavy weight really give a good pattern. Maybe its me but I seem to get many more takes and have more confidence in the style and shape. It all started with the giant buzzers when I ran out of hooks (which seemed inpossible to my friends because I have hundreds). I took out a B175 4/0 and tied about 5-6 to try. To be honest I thought they looked really cool, but as you can see alot bigger.
Well the weekend came and off I went with my friend Brian fishing in a boat on a large resevoir.We started fishing buzzers. Catching trout seemed to be a little slow, we had fish but had to work for them, so I changed to my giant kevlar buzzers. I hadnt shown Brian these before - we all like to sneak one on your mates now and then don't we? When he saw them he said you're having a laugh aren't you, you nutter? You have no chance. Well to big he kept saying. I just laughed and said you never know. To be quite honest I never had a take on them and was just about to give up when I hooked into and landed a rainbow about four pounds. He was gobsmacked. Ten minutes later another one on the giant buzzer. "Give me one", he kept saying. "give me one" and so on for a few minutes, so I gave him two. He had two fish on them and couldnt really believe it, because of the size.
Going back to the shore a guy asked what we where catching on so I gave him the buzzers and went off. He just stared at me with disbelief. Two weeks later the guy came up and said I tried them and caught two fish - "I still don't believe I did it with buzzers that size".
They do work well. Tie some yourself. Dead easy to do. Just have confidence. They work. So come on lets have some comments back. I will always answer if your not too scared to tie them, and all the best to you all.
- Tie in the black kevlar at the head, work back down the body tying in the kevlar to where the bend of the hook just starts.Go back to the eye just stopping short.
- Start to rap the kevlar back to the eye, not touching turns just missing each time to create a gap exposing the black thread, tie down very well ( kevlar can slip if not tied down well)
- Now have alook at the buzzer and decide how big you want the head. ie go back with the thread say just short of a 1/4 of a inch a rough guide only gently move forward to just short of the eye and build a small cone shape. End the thread behind the cone
- Tie in two biots one each side, tie down behind the eye tie off. A little tip I do is once you have tied off the buzzer at the eye,is get the thred again and go behind the goose biots with the thread and do a tiny little cone tie off with 2-3 turns only.
- Finish of with a good coat of flu glue, on the thread and biots only not the Kevlar. Repeat when dry

This reminds me of all the home craft activities when my girls were little. I never realized that I was planting the seeds for their amazing creativity as adults. I love the way you let your girls do their own thing and enjoy! Thanks for sharing.ReplyDelete

Thanks for visiting Tina! My kids had a blast with it.Delete
That's such a good idea. I think this is a fun activity for kids and it allows them to play with different textures. That's one of the most rewarding benefits of using the shredded paper. It's possible to get a fun project done without complicatedcraft tools. The shape also makes it more interesting to look at and attracts the eye. Nice pics.ReplyDelete

Welcome to SOPW – "The Sikh Organisation for Prisoners Welfare", a Registered Charity (UK), run by volunteers, working to achieve justice for those, who have been illegally imprisoned and tortured and their families.
SOPW is the only charity in the world whose mandate is solely to ensure the civil rights of Sikh Political Prisoners are ensured in India. Its success and progress is down to the support of the Sangat, we rely on your support to continue and develop this worthy project.
The SOPW Team work tirelessly to bring much needed support and comfort to the many innocent prisoners illegally imprisoned, tortured and languishing in Indian jails without charge or under fabricated charges. SOPW works to achieve justice for them and helps with the welfare of their families, their world is literally turned upside down
SOPW was founded in 2008 by Bhai Balbir Singh Bains who was arrested in 1999 by Delhi police who said they had found a consignment of RDX explosives. However, due to international support for the UK national, the case was taken to the Supreme Court where the judge threw out the charges, calling them a "balloon of falsehoods" after it emerged the RDX in question had come from a police warehouse.
SOPW funds all legal fees that go towards paying for the legal help and lawyers who fight the cases of these innocent prisoners and help them come out and rebuild their lives.

I was truly impressed with the selection available, however, there are others I would like to see there. The delivery was very good. The shipment arrived in the time they estimated. My experience with Internet purchases has been the estimated date plus 2 weeks.

I've always liked this fragrance but waited so long to get it. Maybe because I read everywhere that it was the emblematic fragrance of the 80's. Somehow I don't find it oldish or strong, I find it a fresh and natural scent that is not outdated. Definately elegant but not in a bloody serious way. On my skin it feels even a bit cheerful and cute, people like it on me.

"The 20:06 hrs Bristol Temple Meads to Weston-super-Mare train comprising two diesel multiple units departed on time. After passing through Flax Bourton Tunnel, two passengers drew the conductor's attention to unusual noises, smells and eventually smoke coming from below the rear vehicle of the train.
The train was brought to a stand by the driver, about half a mile short of Nailsea and Backwell Station. The passengers detrained onto the cess and during this process one passenger made a 999 call to alert the emergency services. The fire that had developed in the rear vehicle was eventually brought under control by the Avon and Somerset County Fire service, but not before very considerable damage to the vehicle had occurred. Two passengers and the conductor were treated for smoke inhalation in an ambulance at the site. No other injuries were reported."
Does the franchise model just need technical changes or would a concession system be better?

Atlus has revealed the release date of the upcoming port of Persona 4 Arena, the 2D fighting game developed by Arc System Works and based on the Persona 4 universe. According to the recent issue of Famitsu (via Andriasang), the Xbox 360 and PS3 version of the title will be out on August 2 in Japan.
The home version of the game will feature a brand-new story mode, much like the past BlazBlue series console ports. Here, players will start off with a selection of four characters, with the rest of the play roster unlockable as the story progresses.
The narrative will take place two years after the events of Persona 4. Atlus also mentioned that the mode will feature new story scenarios not available in the arcade version, which has been out in Japan since March.
In addition, gamers who preorder the title will get a Persona 4 Arena soundtrack CD as an incentive. There is no word on whether the game will be out in the same month outside of Japan. For more information on Persona 4 Arena, visit GameSpot's gamespace on the title.
