RAPTURE DOCTRINE DRIVING PRESIDENT BUSH'S FOREIGN POLICY? - Radioactivity05/04/04
Our guest George Monbiot writes in the Guardian newspaper: "In the United States, several million people have succumbed to an extraordinary delusion. In the 19th century, two immigrant preachers cobbled together a series of unrelated passages from the Bible to create what appears to be a consistent narrative: Jesus will return to Earth when certain preconditions have been met. The first of these was the establishment of a state of Israel. The next involves Israel's occupation of the rest of ...Be the first to comment

Commercial Aviation:
Programs and Options for Providing Air Service to Small Communities
GAO-07-793T: Published: Apr 25, 2007. Publicly Released: Apr 25, 2007.

Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Congress established two key programs to help support air service to small communities--the Essential Air Service (EAS) providing about $100 million in subsidies per year and the Small Community Air Service Development Program (SCASDP) that provides about $20 million per year in grants. As part of its reauthorization of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the Congress is examining the status and outcomes of these programs. This testimony discusses (1) the history and challenges of the EAS program, (2) the implementation and outcomes of the SCASDP and (3) options for reforming EAS and SCASDP. The testimony is based on previous GAO reports, interviews with Department of Transportation officials and industry representatives as well as program updates.
EAS subsidies support air service to many small communities that would likely not have service if EAS subsidies are discontinued. Since 1997, funding for EAS has increased from $25.9 million in 1997 to $109.4 million in 2007 and the number of communities has generally increased. The federal government is spending a median of about $98 per passenger, with subsidies ranging from about $13 to $677 per passenger. Concerns exist about the costs of the program, particularly given the federal government's long-term structural fiscal imbalance. In addition, according to industry representatives, the number of air carriers flying aircraft suitable for EAS communities may decrease, raising concerns about the availability of appropriate aircraft to provide small community air service in the future. SCASDP grantees have used their grants to pursue a variety of goals and have used a variety of strategies, including marketing and revenue guarantees, to improve air service. Our analysis of the 23 grants completed by October 1, 2005, found that air service was sustained after the grant expired in a little less than half of the projects. Finally, although the program has seen some success, the number of applications for SCASDP grants has declined--from 179 in 2002 to 75 in 2006. As we have reported, options for reforming EAS, such as consolidating service into regional airports might make the program more efficient, but also could reduce service to some communities. Further, Congress may be able to use some "lessons learned" from marketing and other successful SCASDP strategies that may help it make the current programs more effective.

By Michelle, Gardenista
I loved having a box of organic vegetables delivered to the doorstep every week. Until about the third week.
"Oh look, kale again," my husband said, peering over my shoulder at the contents, which included kale, kale, a head of cabbage, and kale.
I started delivery for the usual reasons: to support farmers, to connect the food on the plate to the field where it grew, and to force my children to eat more vegetables (or any vegetables, for that matter).
With a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) box, you're buying a share in one farm's seasonal harvest. But it's not like going to a farmer's market (or even a good grocery), where a glorious universe awaits. The box is at the whim of the elements. Drought, pestilence, wind storms, wild fires, and even raccoons can affect the harvest, making every week a surprise.
To help deal with the challenge of putting your weekly bounty to full use, we rounded up some ideas for what to make for dinner after you open the box.
Above: Carrots and snap peas and turnips and … mystery greens. What to do with tough greens? Braise them. For a recipe, see Nourished Kitchen.
Above: Sprouts and strawberries and beets and purple carrots. For dinner: Sweet Roasted Roots With Carrot Top Gremolata; for a recipe, see Food 52. Image by Suzie's Farm, via Flickr.
Above: Asparagus and onions and parsnips. For easy roasted parsnips, preheat oven to 375 degrees. Peel and dice into one-inch cubes. Toss with olive oil and your favorite chopped herb (I like rosemary on parsnips) and salt and pepper to taste. Spread in one layer on a low-sided baking sheet and roast until crispy.

Obama's "so sue me" taunt has bipartisan appeal
"They're doing nothing," President Obama says in response to John Boehner's accusation that Obama has overstepped his executive authority, "I'm not going to apologize for trying to do something." "This taunt is more likely to rile up the Republican base than Democratic voters," writes John Dickerson for Slate. [Read More]
Put on hold, for politics
Our opinion: Right-wing politicians put their political interests ahead of the country's in the latest failure of immigration reform. At least this time the discussion was honest: the failure of immigration reform is all about political power, not the best interests of people or the nation. There was serious hope just a few weeks ago […] [Read More]
Still waiting on Main St.
Our opinion: Wall Street is roaring. But Main Street? Not so much. We need a Congress that pays attention to the economy America actually lives in. If you live on Wall Street, or make your living off it, 2013 was a great year: Blue chip stocks posted their biggest gains in 18 years. You might […] [Read More]
Boehner takes charge of GOP
House Speaker John Boehner's public excoriation of tea party lawmakers and other agitators for trying to enforce an "impossible conservative standard" represents a turning point for the GOP and makes for compelling viewing on a Vine video, says Molly Ball in The Atlantic. [Read More]
Immigration reform now
Our opinion: Humane and fair treatment of millions of people await an ebbing of partisanship. With the government shutdown and federal debt limit battles past us, at least for a little while, it's time for Congress to get back to work on pressing legislation. High on the agenda should be enacting meaningful immigration reform. Weeks […] [Read More]
Back away from the cliff
Our opinion: As Congress' fiercest opponents of Obamacare threaten to shut down government, we're left wondering if there enough moderate House Republicans left to act responsibly? Just before Congress took one of its most productive actions this year and adjourned for summer break, it engaged in yet another pointless exercise: voting to repeal the Affordable […] [Read More]
Boehner deserves a lot more credit
John Boehner "is goofy, poorly informed and frequently incoherent," but his "instincts are damn-near impeccable," in defusing political tension, says Noam Scheiber in The New Republic. His negotiating skills have helped avoid "the global economic apocalypse House Republicans are so intent on provoking." [Read More]

I currently have a script in /etc/init.d which calls autossh with port forward to set up reverse ssh on the server. The command is preceded by 'sleep 20' to try to ensure the command is called after networking is active. The questions is, what is a better way to run this script later in the boot cycle (after networking is set up)? Could/should this be moved to /etc/rc.local or is there a better solution?
Take the 2-minute tour ×
Server Fault is a question and answer site for system and network administrators. It's 100% free, no registration required.
Converting the init script to Upstart will solve this problem. See this previous response (and the accepted answer) on starting a task after the networking is up:
I suspect that /etc/network/if-up.d/ might be more appropriate.
The appropriate man page will help.

Now, in each Iteration, we are getting new Builds for testing.
So, should we keep the same Test Plans and editing their appropriate fields (Build in use, Iteration, Configuration, ...) or is it better to create new ones for each iteration? Something like this:

Virgin Atlantic chief executive Craig Kreeger is confident he can reverse the airline's losses within two years with help from its fleet renewal programme and tie-up with Delta Air Lines.
Speaking to Flightglobal Pro sister magazine Airline Business, Kreeger - who was appointed in February - expressed confidence in his ability to turn around Virgin. He says the airline has been disproportionately affected by several issues that have caused its financial woes over the last five years.
Virgin Atlantic reported a pre-tax loss of £69.9 million ($107 million) for its fiscal year ending February 2013. Kreeger's stated intent is to restore profitability during the fiscal year 2014-15.
Kreeger says that by previously concentrating on a fleet of four-engined aircraft, Virgin "didn't have the right fleet for a rising fuel price environment, so [high] fuel prices have hit us harder".
Virgin is in the midst of a fleet roll-over in which its 19 four-engined Airbus A340s are being replaced by more efficient twinjet Airbus A330s and Boeing 787s. Within five years, the vast majority of the Virgin fleet will be twins "and that by itself remedies a lot of the company's financial difficulty", he says.
Virgin has also suffered financially due to its disproportionate reliance on one economy - the UK - says Kreeger: "When I look at how Virgin is going to compete in the long run effectively, creating stronger revenue-generating capability in the USA is one of the things that will help us be successful in competing for customers."
Virgin Atlantic's commercial tie-up with Delta - which is being implemented as part of the US carrier's December 2012 acquisition of a 49% stake from Singapore Airlines - provides the solution for this conundrum, says Kreeger.
"Delta's distribution in the USA and our product and service will be a hugely winning combination - we think it will take a lot of customers off our competitors and move them on to us," he says. "That will remedy one of our other shortfalls, which has been a reliance on what has been, for the last five years, a pretty weak economy."
Kreeger believes Virgin has suffered due to a lack of connectivity in its network, particularly when compared with arch-rival BA. "We've begun to offer a lot more connections now with [UK domestic operation] Little Red - as well as on our Delhi and Mumbai flights which are timed to connect well with the USA flights," he says.
"So we're creating more connecting opportunities within our network and if you add those things together, along with the continued focus on the product side and the engagement of our team, that combination is why I'm so confident we can get back to being profitable and position us for sustainable success."

An online program being used at a school in Ontario, Canada, allows students and parents to work on math problems together at home. "To help young people in math, it takes a certain level of skill and understanding," said Pat Daly, chairman of the Hamilton-Wentworth Catholic District School Board. "Not all of us have it, so the more we can support parents in that, the better."

Though government policy plays a huge role in the energy landscape, so does personal choice. It's a story that we've been hearing for years, but putting on a sweater instead of hitting the thermostat will do a lot more for the planet (and your wallet) than buying paper towels with 20 percent recycled materials.
Simple changes to these habits could result in massive shifts in the domestic energy landscape, but it seems unlikely they will be made until market pressures make our lifestyles utterly untenable. Drivers in Britain, for example, pay nearly $10 per gallon and are beset by an unholy barrage of fees, yet they still manage to get around in tiny, fuel sipping cars and public transport. They don't do this because it's fun, but because they have to. We may find ourselves there too, one day.
So what can you do with this rosy assessment? One is to participate in an Earth Day activity this April 22 — we've compiled a few for you in this edition. Simply being counted as being truly concerned about this issue makes a big difference, and it will be a great way to spend a spring day with your family, to boot.
The other is to set small goals for yourself that make not only this world a better place, but enrich your own life. Walk or ride a bike when you can, use a fan rather than A/C and consider planting a garden if you have the space. Not only are these things better for the planet, but they're better for your wallet.
If you find yourself concerned about the world we're making, just think about one thing in your life that could be more sustainable and make an effort to improve it. Because being green is about a lot more than the bag you eat your chips from.

text: Hey guys, so today my yearling colt got out of his stall last night, and found that a piece of my plastic brush was missing (about 1"x1" radius), its hard plastic, and I think he may have swallowed it. I checked around the whole barn area and couldn't find it anywhere. Should I be worried? Is there anything I should give him to make it go through easier? Thanks in advance

Surfactant preparations have been proven to improve clinical outcome of infants at risk for or having respiratory distress syndrome (RDS). In clinical trials, ani mal-derived surfactant preparations reduce the risk of pneumothorax and mortality when compared to non-protein-containing synthetic surfactant preparations. In part, this is thought to be due to the presence of surfactant proteins in animal-derived surfactant preparations. Four native surfactant proteins have been identified. The hydrophobic surfactant proteins B (SP-B) and C (SP-C) are tightly bound to phospholipids. These proteins have important roles in maintaining the surface tension-lowering properties of pulmonary surfactant. Surfactant protein A (SP-A) and D (SP-D) are extremely hydrophilic and are not retained in the preparation of any commercial animal-derived surfactant products. These proteins are thought to have a role in recycling surfactant and improving host defense. There is concern that animal-derived products may have some batch-to-batch variation regarding the levels of native pulmonary surfactant proteins. In addition, there is concern regarding the hypothetical risk of transmission of viral or unconventional infectious agents from an animal source. New surfactant preparations, composed of synthetic phospholipids and essential hydrophobic surfactant protein analogs, have been developed. These surfactant protein analogs have been produced by peptide synthesis and recombinant technology to provide a new class of synthetic surfactants that may be a suitable alternative to animal-derived surfactants. Preliminary clinical studies have shown that treatment with these novel surfactant preparations can ameliorate RDS and improve clinical outcome. Clinicians will need to further understand any differences in clinical effects between available products.

Got taken out by a water pipe cover about 10 days ago, will keep it brief but here's some pictures!
Status: Alive w/all organs and just some stitches where my leg took out the right hand mirror.
Speed: 15-20mph
Location: Apartment complex, ~150 ft. from my garage.
Safety gear: Jacket, Helmet, Airbag Vest, Gloves
Cause: Front tire must've tilted up the water pipe cover which jammed between my oil pan and the hole in the road causing the bike to suddenly decelerate while I kept going (inertia's a bitch) over the handlebars superman style.
http://img830.imageshack.us/img830/801/dsc00206o.th.jpg http://img72.imageshack.us/img72/1725/dsc00207o.th.jpg http://img227.imageshack.us/img227/7...00208jz.th.jpg http://img291.imageshack.us/img291/2...00209xo.th.jpg http://img203.imageshack.us/img203/7...00210kr.th.jpg http://img101.imageshack.us/img101/3...00211om.th.jpg http://img715.imageshack.us/img715/4...c00212r.th.jpg http://img833.imageshack.us/img833/2...00213sc.th.jpg http://img844.imageshack.us/img844/2...c00214f.th.jpg http://img576.imageshack.us/img576/5...00215fc.th.jpg http://img651.imageshack.us/img651/6...208draw.th.jpg
Bad luck and stupid covers! Though the airbag vest worked wonders; some of the best money I ever spent. http://safermoto.com/ (I have the MLV model)
That is a strange one! Glad to hear the vest worked out. I got hurt pretty bad bouncing off the road w/o last year, was hoping my MLV would do some good if there was a next time.
It all inflated fine, neck support and all? Or can you remember?
So what you are saying is this- the cover popped up and then caught the oil pan, causing you to go over the bars. Man, that is a weird one. Someone probably did not put that cover on properly, like it was half in the hole.
The airbag vest inflated fully? I have always wondered if they would inflate in time before you hit the ground. If I remember right, they take about a half second to fully inflate but some of the newer ones take about 1/4 second. Did you land on your chest or your back?
Water main cover
You may be lucky.
A security guard making his rounds in the middle of the night at one of our local shopping centers ran over a man hole cover which lifted up on one side, punctured his gas tank, and his truck went off like a bomb...killing him.
I would definately pursue the property owner for damages, if you sure that was the cause.
Wow! Glad you're okay!
I think I know what I'm going to ask Santa for this year.
How did it work? Did it inflate before you hit the ground?
Well I don't remember flying off the bike or landing. When I came too the vest was inflated. The next day I wasn't sore besides for an elbow/hand and my leg that had stitches and some other minor cuts. I have the model that inflates in 0.12 seconds.
Is the vest re-usable?
Wow! This is so pure badluck.
I'm pretty sure you wouldn't be able to repeat it on purpose.
Sounds like the apartment complex, or whoever is responsible for the cover, owes you some money to cover the repairs and medical bills. Those covers aren't supposed to move or pop up like traps when a vehicle drives over them.
this unrelated to the faceplant
[Good that you were not too badly injured!] ---
But, check this out:
the thread is titled, "Superman,"
and the poster's alias is "LewisNClark,"
(one of the best adv stories evar! Corps of Discovery,Jefferson,Sacajawea,etc)
But in the Superman universe: it's 'Lois and Clark."
Yeah the vest is re-usable (as long as the airbag doesn't have a hole in it), $20 for a new CO2 cartridge and then just pack the airbag tube back under the snaps that hold it in and you're back in business.
Glad you came away without significant injury. I'm in the process of getting an MLV as well.
me TOO!
On my first Alaska Highway adventure we stopped for a coffee at the Continental Divide cafe, then after taking some pictures I got on (Bandit 1200S) to ride away. I released the clutch, just got my feet on the 'pegs - BAM! I'm lying on the pavement under the bike...! WTF!!!
All we could figure is (we'd parked on the ONLY concrete around, and it was where the gas truck off-loads the gas thru those round metal-lidded holes) that as my front wheel started onto the far lip of the lid, it "kicked-up" jamming into my header and stopping me IMMEDIATELY. :huh There was a pretty good dent across 3 of the 4 pipes.

Signal: - is a notification sent to a process to notify it of some event - interrupts whatever the process is doing and force it to handle a signal - has an integer number that represents it, and symbolic name Example: signal SIGALRM (numeral value is 14), caused (also) by alarm clock. Tip: you can get a list with all available signals using $kill –l shell command (they will appear without the prefix SIG). What can a process do with the signal he got? 1. catch it 2. let the default action of signal apply 3. ignore it 1. In order to catch a signal, we should build a special function that will be executed when a signal arrives. Such a function is called a signal handler. Example: void catch_alarm (int sig_num) { printf ( "Operation time out. Exiting. \n"); exit (0); } Signal handler should be of type void (*)(int) . This argument is the signal number that the handler catches. This property allows to use the same function to handle several signals. Example: void catch_alarm_&_setitimer (int sig_num) { if (sig_num == SIGALRM) printf ("got a signal SIGALRM"); if (sig_num == SIGVTALRM) printf ("got a signal virtual time setitimer signal"); } How would the operating system know that there is a specific signal handler handles a specific signal? We should connect them, using signal ( ) C library function: signal (SIGALRM, catch_alarm_&_setitimer); signal (SIGVTALRM, catch_alarm_&_setitimer); Notes: - a process can order some signals using C functions; for example, SIGALRM signal can be ordered by using alarm (int x); function. That means that after x seconds a process will get SIGALRM signal. - most but not all signals can be caught. For example, SIGKILL (terminate a process) and SIGSTOP (suspends a process) signals can"t be caught. 2. In order to let the default action of signal apply process has do nothing. Each signal has a default action (figure 10.1 in Stevens). 3. In order to ignore a signal, we should use signal ( ) C function: signal (SIGALRM, SIG_IGN); Note: that not all the signals can be ignored. For example, SIGKILL (terminate a process) and SIGSTOP (suspends a process) signals can"t be ignored. Notes: - if you want to disconnect a signal handler from some special signal, use signal( ): signal (SIGALRM, SIG_DFL); - some o.s. automatically reset signal action to be the default action after the first signal is caught. In this case, if you want your signal handler to continue to catch this signal, you should re-connect them (in the same way you connected them). - it can happen that different C functions provides the same signals (like alarm and setitimer). You must be careful when order signals. - return value from signal( ) in case of error: 0 or previous address of the signal handler - on success SIG_ERR - in a case of error My first program with signals (in C language): signal1.c => when run it, get this output. My second program with signals: signal2.c => when run it, get this output. What should process do in order to send a signal? It should use kill (…) system call. Example: pid_t my_pid = getpid(); // sends itself the STOP signal kill(my_pid, SIGSTOP); Example: pid_t pid = fork(); sleep(2); // sends KILL signal to its child kill(pid, SIGKILL); What can user do to send a signal to a process via command prompt (shell)? - use CTRL+C to send an SIGINT signal to the running process - use CTRL+Z to send a SIGTSTP signal to the running process, etc. One can use this tutorial to become more familiar with signals. Ordering signals: alarm, ualarm, setitimer Description: these functions provide a mechanism for a process to interrupt itself at some future time. They do it by setting a timer; when the timer expires, the process receive a signal. Possible signals: SIGALRM - a real-time timer that counts clock time (alarm, ualarm, setitimer ) SIGVTALRM - a virtual timer that counts CPU time used by the process (setitimer ) SIGPROF - a profiling timer that counts both CPU time used by the process, and CPU time spent in system calls on behalf of the process (setitimer ) Important: you can have one timer of each kind set at any given time. If you set a timer that has not yet expired, that timer is simply reset to the new value. How to use: #include <unistd.h> unsigned int alarm (unsigned int seconds); - notifies of a timeout after the number of real-time seconds (only for once) - returns 0, or (if we used alarm before and the timer didn"t expired yet) number of seconds until previously set alarm Example: alarm (10); // the process will get SIGALRM signal after 10 (real-time) seconds Notes: - if you want to delete the alarm order you made, use alarm (0) instruction - int pause (void) function suspends the process until SIGALRM signal is caught. Pay attention that you still have to catch this signal in order to change its default action. #include <unistd.h> unsigned int ualarm( unsigned int mseconds, unsigned int interval) ; - notifies of a timeout after the number of real-time microseconds. When the interval parameter is nonzero, timeout notification occurs after the number of microseconds specified by the interval parameter has been added to the mseconds parameter. - return values are the same as of alarm. Example: ualarm(1000000, 3000000); // the process will get the first SIGALRM signal after one second, and then it will get this signal every three seconds #include <unistd.h> int setitimer ( int which, struct itimerval * value, struct itimerval old_value) - notifies of a timeout according to the chosen interval timer (real, virtual or profiling). When the value parameter is nonzero, timeout notification occurs each interval of time that is specified in value . When the old_value is nonzero, the old value of the timer is stored here. - 0 is returned on success, -1 is returned and the errno global variable is set – on failure. Timer values are defined by the following structures: struct itimerval { struct timeval it_interval; // next value struct timeval it_value; // current value } struct timeval { long tv_sec; // seconds long tv_usec; // microseconds } There are three interval timers (that don"t intersect): ITIMER_REAL – provides SIGALRM signal (real-time timer) ITIMER_VIRTUAL – provides SIGVTALRM signal (virtual time timer) ITIMER_PROF – provides SIGPROF signal (profiling timer) Example: struct itimerval itv; itv.it_interval.tv_sec = 2; itv.it_interval.tv_usec = 0; itv.it_value.tv_sec = 4; itv.it_value.tv_usec = 0; setitimer (ITIMER_VIRTUAL, &itv, NULL); In this example a process sets a virtual timer (that counts CPU time used by a process). It will get a first SIGVTALRM signal after 4 seconds, and then every two seconds. Note: for more information about alarm, ualarm go here, for more information about setitimer go here. setjmp, longjmp Description: these functions are useful for handling error conditions that occur in a deeply nested function call. They allow to a process branch back through the call frames to a function that is in the call path of the current function, without walking through all the calls tree: Example: process stack process calls to func1(…) stack frame for main func1 calls to func2(…) stack frame in func2(…) we use setjmp to save the for func1 current process environment stack frame for func2 func2 calls to func3(…) stack frame func_n calls to func_n+1( ) for func_n we detected some error and want to return stack frame to func2(…); since we used setjmp from for it, we can do it using longjmp func_n+1 How to use: #include <setjmp.h> int setjmp ( jmp_buf env ); - saves the stack context/environment in env for later use by longjmp() - returns 0 if returning directly and non-zero when returning from longjmp() using the saved context. #include <setjmp.h> void longjmp (jmp_buf env, int val); - restores the environment saved by setjmp; parameter val would be the returned value of setjmp (if a process branch using longjmp, it returns to setjmp function, and setjmp can recognize and return the val argument to the function from which setjmp was called). Example: #include <setjmp.h> jmp_buf jmpbuffer; // define a global variable for saving an environment int main ( ) { int test = 2; char line [100]; if (setjmp (jmpbuffer) != 0) // if return value is 1, then a process just returned from here printf ("a process returned from deeply nested function due to error detection"); test = 3; while ( fgets (line, 100, stdin) != NULL) do_line(line); … } void do_line (char * line) { … do_more (line); ….} void do_more (char * line) { … count_something (line); …} void count_something (char * line) { if line[0] != "a" longjmp (jmpbuffer, 1); … } In this example, we use setjmp to save the current environment of the process in the main function. Then we start an infinite loop, while getting a line from a user and processing it. If in the function "count_something" (that is deeply nested call) we detect an error we return to main using longjmp. Suppose we have some variable - int test in our example. Its value while using setjmp was 2, and then it is changed to be 3. The question is: what would be its value after a process uses longjmp? The common case that its value wouldn"t rolled back, but if you want to guarantee that it wouldn"t be changed by longjmp, you can use volatile variable type. Example: int main ( ) { volatile int a = 3; int b = 3; setjmp (jmpbuffer); printf ("a = %d, b = %d \n", a, b); a = b = 4; …. } void count_something (char * line) { … longjmp (jmpbuffer, 1); … } In this example, suppose that longjmp was executed. When printf is executed the first time, we will see that the values of a and b are 4. When printf is executed the second time, the value of a would be the most updated value, i.e. a = 3; the value of b depends on the compiler we used to compile the process – it might have rolling back mechanism, and might not.

Pakistan Blocks Latest Work Plan at Conference on Disarmament
WASHINGTON -- Pakistan on Tuesday ended the latest effort to establish a plan of work that would allow the international Conference on Disarmament to move forward with negotiations on a treaty to ban production of fissile materials for nuclear weapons.
"At the plenary meeting of the CD ambassador of Pakistan blocked the adoption of the program of work proposed by Hungary," Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, conference secretary general, stated on Twitter.
Islamabad has since 2009 held up progress at the 65-nation body intended to serve as the lone multilateral forum for negotiation of arms control treaties. The body in Geneva, Switzerland, operates on consensus and has not conducted negotiations in 16 years.
Pakistan has asserted that a fissile material cutoff treaty would put it at strategic disadvantage to rival and fellow nuclear-armed state India. It has demanded that any negotiations address reductions in existing stocks of plutonium or weapon-grade uranium.
Hungary was the first of six nations that will assume the conference presidency over three separate sessions. Its work plan was similar to proposals from prior sessions, intended to address nuclear disarmament, preventing a space arms race, the fissile materials pact, and assurances that nuclear-armed nations would not use or threaten to use those assets against states without such weapons. A single working group would have dealt with both disarmament and the fissile materials cutoff, rather than separate panels as proposed in previous years.
The latest failure to achieve progress "was to be expected, even though we tried our best, and had others accept a number of concessions to ease Pakistani concerns, including designating Brazil to lead the combined disarmament and fissile materials cutoff panel, a Hungarian official in Geneva told Global Security Newswire by e-mail.
"The Hungarian presidency is done. It is now up to the incoming president India to figure out how to move forward. They are in a difficult position because of their bilateral relationship with Pakistan, so one should not expect great progress in the coming weeks," added the official, who requested to remain anonymous in discussing sensitive matters.
The present Conference on Disarmament session continues through March 29.

When we wrote our story about the financial-system bailout turning a profit for taxpayers, my Fortune colleague Doris Burke and I (and our editors) decided that less was more. So we showed you our bailout numbers but didn't give you much detail about how we calculated them.
The article has had far more resonance than we expected — it was cited by Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke at a July 13 congressional hearing as a response to allegations by Fed-basher Ron Paul, Barney Frank has cited it twice, and it generated hundreds of posts on fortune.com and washingtonpost.com.

Preputial gland
Preputial glands are exocrine glands that are located in the folds of skin front of the genitals of some mammals (including mice)[1] and produce pheromones. The preputial glands of female animals are sometimes called clitoral glands.
The preputial glands of male musk deer produce strong-smelling deer musk which is of economic importance, as it is used in perfumes.[citation needed]
Human homologues[edit]
|Preputial gland
|glandulae preputiales
|Anatomical terminology
There is debate about whether humans have functional homologues to preputial glands. Preputial glands were first noted by Edward Tyson[2] and in 1694 fully described by William Cowper who named them Tyson's glands after Tyson.[3][4] They are described as modified sebaceous glands located around the corona and inner surface of the prepuce of the human penis. They are believed to be most frequently found in the balanopreputial sulcus.[5] Their secretion may be one of the components of smegma.
Some, including Satya Parkash,[6] dispute their existence.[7] While humans may not have true anatomical equivalents, the term may sometimes be used for tiny whitish yellow pimples occasionally found on the corona of the glans penis. The proper name for these structures is pearly penile papules (or hirsutoid papillomas). According to detractors, they are not glands, but mere thickenings of the skin and are not involved in the formation of smegma.[8][9]

TomTom latest to announce staff cuts
The latest job casualties in the consumer electronics industry come from TomTom, in a statement to the press issued from the company's Amsterdam headquarters.
The GPS manufacturer has announced a reduction of its global workforce by 7% or 115 staff as part of a "cost cutting programme aimed at aligning its cost structure to reflect the current challenging consumer spending environment".
As well as the TomTom jobs to go, TomTom-owned Tele Atlas will shed around 100 jobs as part of restructuring plans previously announced.
The news does not bode well for TomTom's fourth quarter 2008 results announcement due on 24 February 2009.
