The Mall is the debut novel of S.L. Grey, the pseudonym of established South African writers Sarah Lotz and Louis Greenberg. It's not so much a horror story, as the cover image might suggest, as it is a reflection of the darker side of humanity.
Rhoda needs to get to Highgate Mall as soon as possible to score cocaine from her dealer. She's supposed to be looking after someone else's child, but decides to take the kid with her, thinking she won't be more than five minutes and what's the worst that could happen? The worst in this case, is that she loses the child, beats up a mall security guard, and has to stay hidden until the mall closes or risk being arrested.

Ah, Summer. It's a time for sun-kissed skin, tans au naturale, and a healthy summer glow… or not. The heat and humidity of summer can clog your pores and increase oil production, while time spent in a chlorinated pool can dry out your skin.
If summer sun, sunscreen, and sweat is confusing your skin – and has you questioning whether you should continue your Proactiv routine – get answers to all of your complexion concerns right here:
Q: What is "Summer Acne"?
A: During the summer, hot and humid weather can cause your oil glands to secrete more oil – which can cause more acne, especially on your face and back. While seasonal changes in your skin are annoying, it's also common, perfectly normal, and maintainable.
Summer also makes you more prone to a form of acne called acne mechanica, which develops when the skin is exposed to excess heat or from friction caused by skin and clothing rubbing together. You can diminish the impact of acne mechanica by showering often and avoiding synthetic fabrics.
Q: My skin is oilier than normal and it's causing breakouts. What should I do?
A: If you're breaking out and seeing blackheads and whiteheads that have never been there before, consider an acne treatment solution like Proactiv. Proactiv's three step system includes a cleanser, toner, and repairing treatment that helps cure your current acne problems and prevent future breakouts thanks to the active ingredient benzoyl peroxide.
Q: My skin seems to burn faster when I use Proactiv – what gives?
A: The benzoyl peroxide that's working hard to prevent breakouts, unfortunately, makes your skin a little more sensitive to UV rays. It's important to apply sunscreen regularly throughout the day – even if you're not spending that much time in the sun. The "Proactiv Plus Deluxe System's" Oil Free Moisturizer includes SPF 15, so your skin gets the protection it needs.
Q: Can I use Proactiv when I'm sunburned?
A: If you do get a sunburn, it's best to lay off the Proactiv until your skin heals because the benzoyl peroxide can irritate your skin even more. Instead, treat your skin with aloe vera, which will soothe your skin, prevent peeling, and can speed the healing process. Continue to use your SPF infused moisturizer to prevent future burns.
Q: My skin's actually drier – not oilier – during the summer. What should I do about that?
A: If your skin is responding to the heat by drying out, cut back on your normal skincare routine. Proavtiv recommends using the three-step system twice a day for oily skin, but only once a day for dry skin – washing too often with Proactiv can dry your skin out. Use a gentle moisturizer – something that won't clog your pores – and make sure you drink water often to keep your body and skin hydrated.

Scouting the 2015 NFL Draft DTs: Michael Bennett, Ohio State
Written by Bryan Perez on February 22, 2015
With the 2015 NFL Scouting Combine winding down, the DraftBreakdown.com player rankings are starting to take shape. Our full list of positional rankings and the 2015 DB Big Board will be posted within the next few weeks (likely by mid-March), but until then, be sure to check our expanding player overviews by clicking the scouting report tab on the player pages.
Here's my take on Michael Bennett, the talented defensive tackle from Ohio State.
Michael Bennett, the senior defensive lineman for the National Champion Ohio State Buckeyes, enters the 2015 NFL Draft after a productive career as a starter in each of the last two seasons. In 2014, Bennett was named Second Team All-Conference after totaling 41 tackles, 14 TFLs, and 7 sacks. It was Bennett's second time being named as an All-Conference player, as he was honored as (read more…)

Customizing the JDK
Table of Contents
There are some cases where files need to be bundled with the JDK in order to expose functionality in the runtime JVM. For example, the inclusion of unlimited strength Java Cryptography Extensions (JCE) is often added to a JDK in order to utilize stronger cryptographic libraries. To handle such cases, Heroku will copy files designated by the app in a
.jdk-overlay folder into the JDK's directory structure.
If you have questions about Java on Heroku, consider discussing them in the Java on Heroku forums.
To include additional files in the JVM, follow these instructions:
Specify a JDK Version
Create a
system.properties file if one does not already exist, specify the version, and commit it to git. Versions 1.6, 1.7, and 1.8 are supported.
$ echo "java.runtime.version=1.7" > system.properties $ git add system.properties $ git commit -m "JDK 7"
Create a
.jdk-overlay Folder
In your application's root directory, create a
.jdk-overlay folder.
$ mkdir .jdk-overlay $ ls -la total 24 drwxr-xr-x 9 user staff 306 Oct 16 14:43 . drwxr-xr-x 202 user staff 6868 Oct 16 14:40 .. drwxr-xr-x 13 user staff 442 Oct 16 15:06 .git drwxr-xr-x 3 user staff 102 Oct 16 14:43 .jdk-overlay -rw-r--r-- 1 user staff 45 Oct 16 14:40 Procfile -rw-r--r-- 1 user staff 1860 Oct 16 14:40 pom.xml drwxr-xr-x 3 user staff 102 Oct 16 14:40 src -rw-r--r-- 1 user staff 25 Oct 16 14:40 system.properties
Add Custom Files
Copy any custom files into the
.jdk-overlay file. The files will be copied to their equivalent directory in the JDK. For example, to define a custom security policy, the
java.policy file could be placed in the
.jdk-overlay/jre/lib/security/ directory of your app's repository.
Commit the Custom Files
$ git add .jdk-overlay $ git commit -m "Custom JDK Files"
Deploy to Heroku
$ git push heroku master ...
Verify the Copy
The copies can be verified by starting a bash session on Heroku and checking the JDK directory. The JDK directory is located in
For example, to verify Java Cryptography Extensions were copied correctly, the
$HOME/.jdk/jre/lib/security/ directory can be checked.
$ heroku run bash Running `bash` attached to terminal... up, run.1 ~ $ ls -lah .jdk/jre/lib/security/ total 196K drwxrwxr-x 2 u47919 47919 4.0K Jun 4 17:57 . drwxrwxr-x 11 u47919 47919 4.0K Jun 4 17:57 .. -rw-rw-r-- 1 u47919 47919 2.5K Oct 16 21:44 US_export_policy.jar -rw-r--r-- 1 u47919 47919 159K Jun 4 17:48 cacerts -rw-r--r-- 1 u47919 47919 2.2K Jun 4 17:48 java.policy -rw-r--r-- 1 u47919 47919 9.8K Jun 4 17:48 java.security -rw-rw-r-- 1 u47919 47919 2.5K Oct 16 21:44 local_policy.jar
Other Examples
This method can be used for Java extensions when necessary. Though a dependency management tool, such as Maven, should be the preferred mechanism for introducing dependencies.

U.K. Stocks Fall From Two-Month High; Antofagasta, Ashmore Drop
Oct. 13 (Bloomberg) -- U.K. stocks fell from a two-month high, led by a selloff in mining and financial companies, after Chinese export growth slowed and Fitch Ratings downgraded Lloyds Banking Group Plc and Royal Bank of Scotland Group Plc.
Antofagasta Plc, the copper producer controlled by Chile's Luksic family, and Kazakhmys Plc dropped more than 5 percent as metal prices declined in London. Lloyds and RBS also tumbled more than 5 percent. Ashmore Group Plc lost 4 percent as assets under management tumbled, while Man Group Plc extended yesterday's selloff.
The benchmark FTSE 100 Index slid 38.42, or 0.7 percent, to 5,403.38 at the close in London, after rallying 11 percent over the previous six days. The FTSE All-Share Index also dropped 0.7 percent while Ireland's ISEQ Index fell 1.2 percent in Dublin.
"After several days of risk-on trading for equity markets, today saw a session of risk aversion," said Angus Campbell, head of sales at Capital Spreads. "This time it was concerns over global growth that knocked sentiment as data from China showed exports slowing."
Stocks yesterday rallied to the highest level since Aug.3 amid growing optimism that euro-area policy makers will contain the region's debt crisis. European Commissioner for Economic and Monetary Affairs Olli Rehn said the region is moving toward a consensus on resolving the "calamity."
Antofagasta Falls
Antofagasta slid 6.3 percent to 1,078 pence as metal prices declined. Kazakhmys lost 5.7 percent to 878.5 pence and Vedanta Resources Plc dropped 5.1 percent to 1,199 pence.
Copper slid from a two-week high as data showed China's export growth cooled to the weakest in seven months in September from a year earlier. China is the world's biggest contributor to global economic growth.
Rio Tinto Group fell 2.3 percent to 3,283.5 pence even as the world's second-largest mining company reported a 5 percent increase in third-quarter iron ore output.
Lloyds dropped 5.5 percent to 34.26 pence and RBS fell 6.4 percent to 24.16 pence after Fitch cut its credit ratings for the banks, saying government support for the industry is less likely. Lloyds's and RBS's long-term issue default ratings were lowered two steps to A from AA- while Fitch also reduced its so-called support rating floors for systemically important British banks to A from AA- and A+.
Barclays Plc, the U.K.'s second-largest lender by assets, declined 7.4 percent to 173.2 pence and Standard Chartered Plc slid 1.6 percent to 1,411.5 pence.
Ashmore, Man Sink
Ashmore dropped 4 percent to 318 pence after the U.K. fund manager focusing on emerging markets said assets under management fell 10.5 percent to $58.9 billion in the three months to Sept. 30.
Man Group declined 4 percent to 150 pence, the lowest level since 2001. The shares lost 6 percent yesterday after the head fund reported a 5.5 percent drop in the net asset value of its flagship fund.
Mitchells & Butlers Plc tumbled 6.9 percent to 235.1 pence after Piedmont Inc. said it won't proceed with an offer for the pub company. Piedmont, the investment vehicle owned by Bahamas-based billionaire investor Joe Lewis, holds a 23 percent stake in the owner of the All Bar One pub chain.
Rolls-Royce Group Plc paced advancing shares, jumping 9.9 percent to 688 pence after agreeing to sell its 32.5 percent stake in its jet-engine venture to Pratt & Whitney for $1.5 billion.
Hargreaves Lansdown Plc surged 3.9 percent to 500 pence after the retail broker reported a 27 percent gain in revenue in the first quarter as net inflows increased.

Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif says the Islamic Republic is seeking to quash all pretexts for anti-Iran sanctions in the talks with the six major world powers over Tehran's nuclear energy program.
"Through dialogue, we try to eliminate any pretext for the sanctions," Zarif said.
The Iranian foreign minister further noted that Tehran aims to find a framework to abolish reasons for the sanctions, stressing that anti-Iran embargoes only strengthen the resolve of the Iranian nation.
"It is necessary for both sides involved in the sanctions to think of a solution than to conjure up ways to exert pressure on the public," Zarif stated.
Iran Foreign Minister has also reiterated the Islamic Republic's long-held position against development of weapons of mass destruction (WMD), calling for dismantling of all kinds of WMD, including nuclear weapons.
"Iran does not seek to acquire nuclear weapons and [raising] such allegations against Iran is dangerous," Zarif said.
"Iran has never used weapons of mass destruction. The use of nuclear and mass destruction weapons is devoid of legitimacy even for legitimate defense. Islamic teachings also order us not to use weapons of mass destruction," the minister said.
Zarif also reiterated Iran's call for the elimination of nuclear arms and other weapons of mass destruction on the global scale.
"The world must be cleared of WMD and nuclear weapons because it is a necessity for the world security. Our objective must be prohibition of nuclear and mass destruction weapons," he added.
Iran Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif also said the Islamic Republic will continue to enrich uranium to 20 percent purity in order to power its nuclear research reactor.
Zarif was reacting to reports that the Islamic Republic has stopped 20-percent enrichment.
He added that Iran's 20-percent enrichment will be under the supervision of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
The Iranian foreign minister also stated that Tehran will push ahead with nuclear talks with world powers "with good faith" and "with determination to reach understanding and with hope to reach an understanding at an early stage."
Iran's Foreign Minister also said the Islamic Republic attaches great significance to its relations with African countries, including South Africa.
"South Africa is one of the important countries in the African continent, one of the key players of the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) and an active and influential country on the international stage," Zarif said.
He said that Iran welcomed the further enhancement of the ties with the African country, expressing hope that both countries' private and state sectors would help boost mutual economic, trade and technical ties.
Zarif also expressed optimism that the 11th meeting of the Iran-South Africa Joint Cooperation Commission would result in closer relations between the two countries, especially closer industrial and trade cooperation between the private sectors of both sides.

Numerical models—Numerical models solve systems of equations describing the fundamental physics, fluid motion, and thermodynamics of an Earth system component. These models can include single Earth system components (i.e., sea ice, ocean, land, or atmosphere) or can include multiple components that are coupled through the exchange of heat, water, and momentum (i.e., ice-ocean models, global climate models). Biogeochemistry, chemistry, and other aspects can also be incorporated through the inclusion of additional coupled equations or parameterizations.
Marginal ice zone—A band of pack ice 100 to 200 km (62 to 124 mi.) wide that forms a buffer between open seas and dense interior pack ice; here, waves, swells, and eddies have strong impacts that affect the ice, creating highly variable ice conditions.
Multiyear Ice—Ice that has survived at least one melt season; the thickness of multiyear ice floes can range from 2 to 20 m (6.6 to 66 ft) thick.
Predictability—The extent to which future states of a system may be predicted based on knowledge of current and past states of the system. Predictability is inherently limited because knowledge of the system's past and current states is imperfect and future variations of the external forcings are not exactly known.
Seasonal scale (21 days to 1 year)—The terms "prediction" and "outlook" are commonly used when referring to this timescale.
Statistical models—A model based on statistical relationships between different variables in past behavior of the system to be modeled.
Weather scale (1 hour to 10 days)—The term "forecasting" is commonly used when referring to this timescale.
sustained and coordinated conversation among the user, modeling, and observation communities. It was noted that this approach needs to go beyond ad hoc workshops and demands long-term, continuous, two-way interaction. This theme, which is discussed in more detail in Chapter 3, drove many of the key challenges and strategies laid out in the report.
The report addresses Arctic sea ice prediction over the seasonal to decadal timescales as a driver of the need for improved understanding of sea ice variability (Box 1.1). The committee's focus was on ice conditions during all seasons within the whole Arctic marine environment (i.e., Arctic Ocean and the subpolar seas, including the seasonal sea ice zone).

Guest column: A special day at the ballpark
Guest commentary
Bad news seems to surround us.
So many acts of kindness and courage occur behind the scenes that when we see something wonderful happen I think it's a good idea to share it with the community.
This is why I'm motivated to highlight a recent event which serves as an example of what makes our Southwest Florida community so charming and strong.
My 7-year-old son, Charlie, plays baseball in the Bonita Springs Little League. He's a proud (and sometimes loud) member of the Sand Gnats team.
Carrie Belyea, the mom of one of his teammates and fellow classmates, is in the fight of her life battling cancer. Carrie was given the opportunity to have a wish fulfilled by Hope Hospice's Hopeful Wish program. Knowing her son's love for baseball, this caring mom wished that her son, Richie, be given the opportunity to meet a professional baseball player.
Carrie's wish was granted for the last spring training game for the Minnesota Twins.
The date of the game with the Pittsburgh Pirates was also game day for the Sand Gnats versus the Braves, but the Sand Gnats' game was postponed in favor of making lifelong memories off the Little League field and on the bigger field of life.
The Sand Gnats team was invited to meet the big leaguers.
The Sand Gnats arrived in their uniforms, fully geared, gloves ready, eyes wide and excitement pumping!
The Sand Gnats and Richie's mom were brought onto the Hammond Stadium field and were warmly greeted by Steve Liddle, the Twins' third-base coach.
The amazed kids were invited to help the major leaguers warm up for their game. The boys watched in amazement as baseballs whizzed by — awed by the feeling of being so close to the action. They cheered at the crack of the bats and jumped with joy while watching the batters smacking the ball out of the park.
For these few cherished moments in time, all the stressors of life seemed to disappear. Famous big leaguers shared their love of the game, talked baseball and traded pointers with a bunch of scrappy kids. Just before game time, the Twins autographed balls, gloves, bats and ball caps to the glowing delight of the kids and Carrie, that one special mom.
As I sat back and watched the scene, it was clear to me that this is what all children and families need — a community that connects across gaps and embraces them, both in good and hard times.
I was humbled and inspired at the selfless request of an ill mother who, when asked what wish she would like granted, thought first of making her child a bit happier.
I was thankful for Hope HealthCare Services and their donors for granting her wish. This magical day was then made possible by the efforts of the Minnesota Twins, Fort Myers Miracle and Little League coaches Todd Vail and Tony Votta.
In my view, this real-life drama reveals so much about our people and is the best reason any business should locate, invest resources and bring new jobs to our beautiful Southwest Florida community: We believe in family and the value of teamwork!
We should all look around us to see examples of human compassion in our community and the blessings of teamwork. And when we do experience such special events, we should find every opportunity to share the good with others.
See you at the ball park, Sand Gnats!

Waratahs v Bulls - Live
80 The Bulls came back in the second half and managed to hold onto the ball a bit better. The Tahs missed a few kicks and opportunities to put the game out of reach but credit to the Bulls for always finding a way to keep themselves in the match! Bulls will have a lot to consider as they have lost 3 on the road now. Tahs with the win will keep the pressure on the top of the table Brumbies.
80 The Bulls get on attack and work their way to the Tahs 22m! The Tahs work hard and win a penalty and that's the end of the match! The Tahs have won!
77 PENALTY, BULLS, POLLARD, 19-12. Are we in for an exciting finish!?
76 Pollard has set up a line out for the Bulls which they drive again! Again it pops up on the Tahs side! They kick but don't find touch and the Bulls attack. They win a penalty and Pollard will have a shot.
74 Potgieter has found a huge touch after winning a penalty! The Bulls set up a maul and come close! They lose the ball and the Tahs counter attack with Dennis making a strong run up the midfield! A pass has been called forward from the Tahs and we come back for a scrum on the 10-yard line.
69 Huge hit from Flip on Jacques Potgieter! That was not a friendly tackle! The Tahs eventually knock on for a Bulls scrum. They need points soon!
65 PENALTY, TAHS, FOLEY, 19-9. Foley extends the lead and it looks a bit bleak for the visitors now with a man down.
64 YELLOW CARD! BULLS, HATTINGH. Grant Hattingh just got lazy on defensive as Hooper steps inside and Hattingh leaves his arm out and catches the neck. Big blow for the Bulls.
62 PENALTY, TAHS, FOLEY, 16-9. Foley gets this one as he extends the lead to 7 points!
62 Tahs win a penalty! They've opted for posts and Foley will take the shot!
60 Beyers knocks the ball on inside his own 22m whilst gathering a kick! Terrible mistake! Tahs with a strong chance with a scrum inside the Bulls 22m.
58 Tahs have space out wide and they go for the big cut out pass to the wing! He tries to keep it in play but the pass is forward.
56 Foley pulls it! Another miss for Foley!
55 The Bulls lose the ball, the Tahs kick down field. Hougaard tries to run it, gets caught without support and the Tahs win a penalty! What a turnaround! Foley will have shot!
53 A high kick from Paige is knocked on by the Tahs and the Bulls are on attack! They start playing rugby now and come close to the line! The ball goes over the deadball but according to the TMO it came off a Tahs player so scrum 5m to the Bulls!
51 Potgieter gets in the pocket after a few phases and attempts a drop goal...he pushes it wide. A bit negative play from the Bulls. Great chance to push for a try.
49 Scrum to the Bulls inside the Tahs 22m. Great attacking opportunity for the visitors!
47 PENALTY, BULLS, POTGIETER, 13-9. Bulls very much in this one now!
46 Jacques Potgieter puts Skelton through a gap who offloads to Hooper who is away! He passes to Phipps whose ankle tapped and the lose possession. Bulls counter attack and find space on the left wing! Hougaard gets the ball but is reeled in by Hooper deep in the Tahs half! They keep attacking into the Tahs 22m and win themselves a penalty! Bulls with a chance to get within striking range!
43 Bulls win a penalty after stealing a line out! Potgieter sets up a line out on the 22m. They lose the line out and the Tahs clear!
41 Potgieter gets us underway for the 2nd half! Tahs gather and kick but don't find touch. Bulls have the first attacking chance! Tahs defend well and win a penalty.
40 The Tahs came out firing with an early try in the first minute! They kept that momentum up for most of the first half and completely blitzed the Bulls. The Tahs' concentration slipped a bit towards the end of the half which has allowed the Bulls back in this one. Tahs are looking the better side but the Bulls now how to play kak and win. The boot of Jacques-Louis Potgieter could be a factor as he doesn't look like missing tonight.
40 PENALTY, BULLS, POTGIETER, 6-13. Another incredible strike from Potgieter to narrow the gap as they head into half time!
40 And the Bulls win a penalty! Potgieter will have a shot to reduce the lead to 7 points on half time.
39 Bulls win another penalty and Potgieter finds a huge touch on the Tahs 22m. Some points here would be a great turnaround for the Bulls before half time.
38 PENALTY, BULLS, POTGIETER, 3-13. Potgieter strikes it sweetly, straight through the middle. Bulls on the scoreboard!
37 Now the Bulls finally get a penalty and have a chance to get on the scoreboard. Tahs penalized for an infringement at the scrum.
34 Foley pushes it way right and lets the Bulls off the hook!
32 Tahs win another penalty as the Bulls lack discipline at the breakdown yet again! Tahs with a chance to extend their lead to 16 points!
30 We have a break in play as Piet van Zyl seems to have injured his knee! Rudy Paige is on to replace him.
28 Tahs win a penalty on the half way line but opt for touch instead. They go wide and Crawford throws another forward pass. Basson doing well to come up quickly and force that kind of pass.
26 It's all Tahs at the moment, Bulls having to defend a lot. Tahs try an expansive move but throw a forward pass in the process. Bulls need to retain possession and get Basson and Hougaard in some space.
22 PENALTY, TAHS, FOLEY, 13-0. Starting to look ominous now for the Bulls!
21 Tahs win a penalty after a great kick from Foley. Basson gathers but is tackled. Beyers lost his feet at the breakdown and this should be another 3 for the Tahs!
19 PENALTY, TAHS, FOLEY, 10-0. Easy stuff for Foley!
18 Tahs make a break and it could be on! Ref says there was some obstruction but they come back for an earlier infringement from the Bulls and Foley will have a shot from straight out in front.
14 Bulls now find some space up the right wing! The opportunity comes to nothing as they eventually lose the ball! Great conditions for running rugby tonight!
13 Beale makes a great break on the inside! He puts a grubber through onto the try line but Ben Robinson was the chaser and so the Bulls get back comfortably.
10 Tahs looking incredibly dangerous again as the backline runs at pace off the line out! Ref comes back for a slight forward pass to Folau.
9 Beale has the accuracy but is just short. Didn't strike it cleanly.
8 Penalty to the Tahs! Incorrect entry at the ruck from the Bulls. Jacques Potgieter is carrying the ball so well...Heynecke Meyer is surely watching closely. Beale will have a long distance shot from the corner of the 10-yard line.
6 Their extremely anticipated maul is driven sideways into touch and the Tahs have the throw-in! They attack wide before Foley kicks to start a kicking battle which the Tahs win.
4 Bulls win a penalty at the scrum and kick for touch. They'll no doubt drive it up and try settle things down.
4 Huge run from Potgieter against his old team mates! They go wide and Beale just fumbles the ball with loads of space in front of him! Tahs are looking on fire!
2 CONVERSION, TAHS, FOLEY, 7-0. No mistake from Foley to extend the early lead!
1 TRY! TAHS, FOLAU, 5-0. 28 seconds! That's all it took! They go wide, Ashley-Cooper makes a half break and pops it inside to Izzy Folau who didn't even need a minute to make an impact!
1 Foley gets us underway tonight! And they win their own kick back!
Tahs news: Wallaby full-back Israel Folau is set to return to the Waratahs starting line-up for todays clash with the Bulls. The try-scoring ace has missed both games in South Africa with a throat injury, and was then controversially withdrawn by the Australian Rugby Union for last week's clash against the Force. But the Waratahs medical staff have given Michael Cheika the all clear to pick the full-back and the player has received a medical clearance from the ARU. Folau last played against the Rebels in round six, four weeks ago. The backline remains otherwise unchanged, with Rob Horne and Cam Crawford holding their places on the wings, and Kurtley Beale and Adam Ashley-Cooper continuing their partnership in the centres. In the halves, Nick Phipps and Bernard Foley line up alongside each other for the eighth straight game in 2014. A strong performance in the scrums in the last two games has seen Cheika stick with the starting front row of Benn Robinson, Tatafu Polota Nau and Sekope Kepu. After a dynamic display last week, Will Skelton again partners Kane Douglas in the second row. The backrow consists of blindside flanker Jacques Potgieter - who'll be up against his former Bulls teammates - Michael Hooper and skipper Dave Dennis. With the Waratahs expecting a torrid forward battle, the coach has gone with five forwards and three backs on the bench. After missing last week's loss to the Force in Perth, a fit-again Wycliff Palu will look to make a return to action via the bench.
Bulls news: Lock Flip van der Merwe has been passed fit and will lead the team for their third tour match to Australasia. Van der Merwe got injured in last weekend's loss to the Highlanders in Dunedin, but has recovered sufficiently from his arm injury to lead the team. Frans Ludeke has made one change on the bench, where Rudy Paige will act as scrum-half cover. Should Paige take to the field it will be his first appearance in the competition this year.
Welcome to Allianz Stadium in Sydney for our Super Rugby clash featuring the travelling Bulls and the Waratahs! The Bulls need a victory tonight to avoid a disappointing tour and to keep the qualifying hopes alive. The Tahs are not far behind the Brumbies and will look to put pressure on them at the top with win tonight!

Texas Politician and Cuban-American Ted Cruz is getting criticism from those who accuse him of not being Latino enough to represent Texas Hispanics in Congress.
The Republican Texas Senator hopeful is going up against Democrat Paul Sadler, and while his father is Cuban and immigrated to the United States, many say his stance doesn't align with that of the average Texas Latino, reports the Huffington Post.

Despite being a good student with dreams of becoming an engineer, 18-year-old Joaquin Luna committed suicide the Friday after Thanksgiving. Why? His family insists that the Mission, Texas teen (who was brought illegally to the U.S. by his parents as a six month old baby) became depressed after the Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors (DREAM) Act failed to pass Congress last December.

That lead to the state receiving four new Congressional districts, which equals four additional seats in Congress. How those new districts were drawn by the state is now the subject of two big court fights: One in Washington D.C., where Latino groups and the U.S. Dept.

It's rare find a home without a microwave oven. It is one of the most essential home appliances for any home and is owned by millions of people around the world. If you are looking to buy new or used microwaves in Singapore, it is important to know about the various types of microwave ovens so that you can choose the ones which is the best fit for your home.
These perform only the basic functions like cooking, boiling or heating food. These do not have any advanced options like grilling, convection, baking and roasting. They do not cost much and are great for individuals living alone. However, with the proper accessories, a basic low-cost microwave can do all the things specialty microwaves can.
This type of microwave contains a magnetron and coils, which are used for grilling food. You can use the normal cooking function along with the grilling function to cook food faster. This way you can easily grill or roast meat without the use of a grill. They cost more than a traditional microwave.
You can cook or bake food in a convection microwave. They have an additional heater in them, which allows baking. You can bake cakes, biscuits, cookies and other dishes in this type of microwave oven. Expect to pay more for a convection microwave, but they are similar in price to the grill models.
As the name suggests, convection and grill ovens are the most advanced microwaves which offer all the advanced functions including cooking, heating, baking, as well as roasting. Because of their multi-use, they cost much higher than others.
Different microwaves brands offer different features like one touch cooking, electronic timer, turntables, and others, which are also important for determining which type is best for your home. You can also buy microwaves in different sizes ranging from 28 litres to 56 litres. If you want to get a microwave with all the above features, you can often find secondhand microwaves in Singapore at bargain prices.

Filmmakers to mentor youths with Film Arcade
Talented youths seeking an opportunity to showcase their acting flair may soon have their dream come true. Film Arcade Project is set to inspire youths through entertainment. The film project, organisers said, will feature a reality TV show that would ignite the creative spirit of youths. According to the Chairman, Vicpad Communications, organisers of the film project, Mr Paul Anaba, the empowerment programme seeks to mentor the next generation of celebrity actors.
He said: "Most filmmakers are not willing to take the risk of featuring fresh acts in their movies, which is somewhat understandable, given the economic situation in the country. Despite the growth we have seen in Nollywood, the same faces that built this industry are still there. But there is need for the young ones to be taught and mentored to take over and run the industry of the future. It is time to move on and give the youth of this country a voice so that they can bring in their own talent and explore new grounds for the growth of the Motion Picture Industry (MPI) in the country."
This, he said, birthed the film project. "Film Arcade is aimed at reaching the youth of this nation and offering them a platform by way of getting them employment in an industry that has been tagged the third largest producer of movies in the world. We intend to raise a new generation of practitioners in the industry. We intend to build talents that would one day take over the industry," he said.
With Anaba in the Film Arcade project are filmmakers such as Acquila Njama, Ayoola Opere, Benard Otunola and Helen Oloriegbe.
The producer of Heaven Gate soap, Njama reiterated Anaba's statement, while describing the project as "mobile acting class, training on the move". On sustainability of the dream, he said, Film Arcade is a long-term project that is expected to produce long-term results. Participants, he said, would receive training that would help position in the industry. "What we stand to gain is a good name and goodwill. Most of the movies done within the country do not introduce people into the knitty gritty of acting. During the programme we would take participants through various training. And with the training, the participants receive, it is expected that they would be able to find their feet and establish themselves in the industry," he said.
Unlike other auditions where the focus is on the top four spots, the organisers said, Film Arcade will hold a nationwide audition that is poised to search for 100 of the best talents in the country. And these 100 best will eventually feature in several movies by the organisers as guest-artist.
The auditions will be held in six geo-political zones, including Lagos. After the first selection from all zones, the organisers said, aspiring participants will be brought for the final screening and selection. The final location would be determined by the producer. They would be given lessons on acting, use of voice, film craft and working in Nollywood, among others. Forms would be sold for N3,000, according to the organisers. "The subscription will add to people's seriousness," it was said.

2003 Ford Escape Q&A
2003 Ford Escape Question: Hesitation when accelerating
My Escape has developed a hesitation during acceleration between 35 to 50mph. We thought it might be the fuel filter but we replaced that and it didn't help. The needles for the tac and speedometer go all the way to the top for 2-3 seconds and then go back to normal. No change in the engine speed when this occurs. - sharonkaye

Answer 1
We own a 2002 Ford Escape XLT, 4WD, 3.0 V6. We experienced the exact same problem. The solution turned out to be one of the three catalytic converters. The second one was completely blocked and had to be replaced. Have your repair shop test all three catalytic converters, it is likely the problem. Good Luck. - arahman

TI Helps Teachers Become Scholars
Chad Bridle, a chemistry and physics teacher at Grandville High School, helps his students understand chemistry by helping them see what is happening at the particle level using inquiry-based activities that include particle modeling. Using activities focused on phases of matter and chemical and physical changes that he and his colleagues developed as part of the Target Inquiry program, Chad examined the impact of this particle level modeling on student understanding of these core chemistry concepts. His study demonstrated the value of these activities and a more detailed account of the study and its results have been published in the Journal of Chemical Education. Also be sure to check out all of the TI activities by going to our Teaching Materials link!

Group hotel deals near Sketch Lecture Room and Library
Phone us free on: 1-800-986-9403
Group booking enquiry near Sketch Lecture Room and Library
More about the Sketch Lecture Room and Library
There are three restaurants in the madly trendy Sketch complex (as well as an art gallery, tea room, patisserie, two bars, and a magical land of talking animals and witches... probably...) and this is undoubtedly the best of them. It is also the reason why Sketch has a reputation for being madly overpriced, but if you want your food to be served in a Luc Besson fantasy-world populated by only the thinnest and most extravagantly fashion-concious people in London then you have to expect to pay a few quid for it. The food, as you would expect, is as close to art as the ingredients will allow, but if you can bear to break up the elaborate sculptures on your plates, you'll find that unusual, innovative and often inspired combinations of flavours lurk within. A dining experience rather than a restaurant, and guaranteed to provide an anecdote or two, as well as a good meal.

text: MAC Boutique Pink Mineralize Rich Lipstick ($22.00 for 0.12 oz.) is described as a "bright blue pink." It's a brightened, light-medium fuchsia pink with cool, blue undertones and a very fine shimmer and soft shine. It had mostly opaque color coverage, and it applied evenly overall but if I pressed my lips together, there were faint–but visible–lines created. It lasted for three and a half hours on me but was nicely hydrating. It's a fun shade, particularly for summer, but it's one we've seen before (particularly by MAC). Marc Jacobs Beauty Pop-arazzi (606) (P, $28.00) is more opaque, more matte. MAC Lust Extract (LE, $17.00) is glossier. Givenchy Rose Perfecto (209) (P, $36.00) is more opaque. MAC Kelly Yum-Yum (LE, $16.00) is more matte. MAC Bold Spring (P, $22.00) is slightly sheerer but very, very similar (I don't know why they didn't just repromote this one). Bite Beauty Satsuma (LE, $24.00) is brighter, cooler-toned, more matte. Marc Jacobs Beauty Gossip (140) (LE, $30.00) is more matte. Maybelline Fuchsia Flash (P, $7.49) is more fuchsia, brighter, darker. MAC Outrageously Fun (LE, $16.00) is cooler-toned, lighter. See comparison swatches / view dupes.

KACE (1250 AM) was a planned American radio station designed to serve the community of Mesquite, Nevada. The station's construction permit was held by Americast Media, LLC.
In January 2004, the Americast Media Corporation applied to the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for a construction permit for a new broadcast radio station. After several amendments and revisions, the FCC granted this permit on August 18, 2010, with a scheduled expiration date of August 18, 2013.[1][2] The planned station was assigned call sign "KACE" on December 10, 2010.[3] The Construction permit expired and was cancelled.

"During the past week the engineering team has pinpointed and fixed problems that were preventing a small percentage of Windows Phones from installing the February software patch," Microsoft's Michael Stroh wrote on the Windows Phone Blog. He apologized for the delay and said they're looking for ways to improve the update process, but stopped short of detailing what the issue was or why it only affected Samsung phones.
The upgrade in question is being pushed gradually and is actually a small patch designed to prepare the phone for a much larger upgrade that is expected later this month. It will be the first major upgrade of Windows Phone 7 since the operating system was launched in October last year, and will add new features such as copy and paste and faster application performance. A much larger update, codenamed Mango, is set to arrive a few months later adding things like multitasking support for third-party applications and improved browsing through IE9.
