Real Housewives of Beverly Hills
Kelsey Grammer and Kayte Walsh Can't Wait to Have Kids
With Kelsey Grammer embroiled in a custody battle for his children with ex Camille, he and his new wife are looking to procure some kids the old fashioned way. You know what we mean. "[We] can't wait," 29-year-old Kayte Walsh told Us Magazine at the Tony Awards on Sunday, June 12.
Undeterred by reports that Kelsey is looking to adopt his son Jude while leaving daughter Mason with Camille, Kayte continued, "He's such a good father. I've never known a man like him."
For his part, Grammer doesn't plan on signing this wife up for a Real Housewives series, as he reportedly did with Camille. "I made a conscious decision that I wouldn't be at least playing on my personal life in front of the cameras," said Kelsey. "That's just disrespectful, I think, for the whole situation, [and] for Kayte as well."
Alright, Kelsey, but if we hear a new reality show, Proper Grammer, is suddenly in the works, we're going to remember these words.

Robert Atkinson says his new think tank, called the Information Technology and Innovation Foundation, will take a centrist approach and publish papers that are not dogmatically liberal or conservative. "If I have a world view, ideology or mission, it's pro-innovation," he said in an interview Monday.
Robert Atkinson
Several large (but unnamed) technology companies have provided start-up funding, Atkinson said, making his foundation the latest entrant in an increasingly influential array of nonprofit groups and trade associations that attempt to shape laws dealing with the Internet and e-commerce. His foundation also will have close ties with the Information Technology Industry Council, which has a 2004 budget of $5.6 million.
A CNET News.com special report published this week shows that 47 organizations active in technology policy and legislation have combined assets of about $1.1 billion, annual revenue of $573 million, and an average executive director salary of $332,665.
Atkinson previously was a vice president at the Progressive Policy Institute, an affiliate of the Democratic Leadership Council. Once headed by then-Gov. Bill Clinton, the DLC is now run by Al From, former executive director of the House Democratic Caucus.
Silicon money
In a town controlled by the Republican Party, think tanks with close ties to Democrats run the risk of being ignored. Atkinson has tried to remedy this by naming former Republican Rep. Jennifer Dunn as a co-chairman and collecting endorsements from senior Republicans like Orrin Hatch, a Utah senator. (That also avoids the problem that the Electronics Industries Alliance encountered after it hired as its president Dave McCurdy, a Democratic politician, drawing the wrath of then-House Majority Leader Tom DeLay.)
But reaching out to Republicans doesn't necessarily imply a laissez-faire approach. "I'm not opposed to saying there are certain types of cases where we need regulation," Atkinson said. "Spam is one."
Atkinson also likes the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, a bete noire of some digital rights groups and many programmers. "I don't think the DMCA went too far, for instance," he said. "I think the DMCA pretty much got it right."

hiring the guide
Favorite thing: Although some of the paths are easy to go by yourself I advise you to take the guide for even shorter hikes. The guide showed us the snake above our heads which we would miss if we would go without a guide.
Sparkles of sunlight on the Water & Reflections...
Favorite thing: The river has a life of its own. As a city girl, I had never encountered something so lively and beautiful, with a hint of danger as this river. I enjoyed the "inconvinience" of having to take a boat to get to places. I enjoyed watching the river sparkle when the sun-light touched upon its surfaces. The way the light made the river look different in the morning as compared to in the evenings.
How peaceful it looked, and yet, I reflected on how difficult life must be for the villagers and orang asli who lived off the land. When nature is encroached upon by civilisation, how would the indigenous people of the jungle survive in the long term?
Fondest memory:
Meeting up with Long Lost Friends and Colleagues
There are various types of boats and the one we were on, could take up to four people, excluding the boat man. I sat on one of them and from my vantage point, I could see all my colleagues around me, in little boats. We don't meet often, as we are located at various branches throughout Malaysia. In front, and at the back, when I saw someone I knew from a previous company trip, we would wave at one another with great joy and delight. How lovely to catch up with old friends, when on holiday!
Delighting in nature
I felt a sense of delight in being able to take in nature at its best, knowing that the jungle was alive all around me. The sound of noisy insects, curious birds crying out to one another, and river teeming with fresh water fish, whose fins glinted as they darted in the river.
- National/State Park
- Eco-Tourism
- Jungle and Rain Forest
Try and go on a packaged deal
Favorite thing: Honestly, this place can be fun if you're do all the jungle activities with a big group of people and a good guide. Doing it by yourself can be quite a hassle and it'll turn out to be a more expensive affair.
Fondest memory: You can contact www.tahan.com.my for a good package deal at reasonable prices. Our 3d4n deal (full board+ all tours you see on this page)came up to roughly USD120 or so.
Taman Negara Trail map
Favorite thing: It's hard to get a complete trail map of Taman Negara from the brochures. Even the Taman Negara HQ is not that helpful. You can find this similar map from the Nusa River Bus counter. This map is helpful to assist you in planning your itinerary. From the map also you can know the distance between places.

Crossing the river..oops somebody fell
Fondest memory: It requires technique to cross a river with ebb currents, lugging a 15kg haversack on your back. One wrong step and in the water you go, not forgetting risking the items in your haversacks getting wet

Radical Islam Often Mistakenly Labeled This essay aims at constructing and deconstructing three main prevalent Islamic discourses—Ialamism, Salafism, and Wahhabism--in this century, which comprise the core beliefs of Muslim communities throught the world. They are all mistakenly labeled as radical Islamic movements or fundamentalism. However, a deeper anaylsis of modern Islamic thought shows that there are great normative and political diversions among and within the three main Islamic beliefs: normally and mistakenly lumped together asIslamism (moderate and radical),Salafism (puritanical Salafist and neo-Salafist), andWahhabism (instructionist and Jihadist).By developing a typology of major ideologies of active Islamic trends that centers specifically on radical Islamism, we can compare Jihadist Wahhabism, and neo-Salafism, both of which have either terrorist or jihadist involvements worldwide. Understanding these trends and their discourses will allow world…

Our son's last speech appt is this Friday. We have loved our therapist and are so sad to be done (happy our son is caught up though so he didn't qualify through public schools). I'd love to get hersomething as a thank you. She is due with her first baby in June. What would you get her? We've become almost friends through all this.
Gift for EI therapist?
I would do a gift card to some place like Target or Walmart - that way she can either get herself something or get her baby something.
My daughter is losing a therapist at the end of the month and I think I'll need to get her something too.

In a pilot experiment to find the most potent RNAi triggers for nine target genesincluding a few hard-to-suppress cancer genesthe team generated genetic codes for about 20,000 shRNAs, each with the potential to shut down any one of the nine target genes. Each genetic code was then inserted into a retrovirus that was also engineered to carry the target geneor the "sensor"and a gene for a fluorescent protein, called a "marker." This design ensured that when cells growing in dishes were infected with the genetically engineered viruses, both the sensor and the marker would always be co-produced within each cell along with one shRNA.
ShRNAs that were inefficient at triggering RNAi failed to spur the destruction of their target (or sensor) genes' RNA and that of the fluorescent marker. So these cells produced a fluorescent protein whose brightness could easily be detected. But shRNAs that were potent RNAi triggers caused the efficient destruction of the target gene's RNA and that of the fluorescent marker as well. Those host cells therefore lacked all traces of fluorescence.
"All we had to do then was to sort these cells out, pull out each cell's genetic material and sequence the short hairpin RNA," explains graduate student Christof Fellman, who together with post-doctoral fellow Johannes Zuber led these efforts. "This gave us the identity of the RNAi trigger that was most potent in shutting down the target gene."
The team found that for each of the nine genes, only about 2.5% of all possible shRN

HSBC "lift" by Grey London
Agency: Grey London
Rating: 5.0
By John Reynolds, marketingmagazine.co.uk, Friday, 28 October 2011 10:13AM
BT has signed up official communications services partners of St George's Park, the £100m development in Burton-upon-Trent, which will become the centre of coaching and education for English football.
As part of the deal, coaches, players and business users of St George's Park will be able to use BT technology, such as BT broadband and BT Wi-Fi.
In return, BT is likely to use St George's Park, which is to be the centre of coaching for English Football, for conferencing and other work opportunities. There is likely to be only minimal BT branding at the centre.
David Sheepshanks, chairman of St George's Park, said: "We are absolutely delighted to welcome BT as a partner for the St George's Park development and their associations with us is a ringing endorsement of its important and its growing national identity."
Graham Sutherland, managing director, BT Business, said: "We are very proud to support St George's Park and to help The FA develop the next generation of sporting greats."
The centre is due to be completed and open next year.
No specific financial details of the deal have been disclosed.

'Sign Painter' film gets anticipated Milwaukee premiere
Sometimes, a custom has to be on the verge of vanishing to be properly reconsidered, celebrated and carried on. Such is the case for skilled sign painting, the exacting and finicky craft of hand lettering on a bakery storefront window, the gold-leaf bank banner, a GAP ad or a simple sign offering cows for sale on a farm.
Such signs age artfully, becoming faded and elegant ghosts of their former selves, reminding us of a time when more things were made by hand, not only the men's suits or the wood cabinets advertised, but the signs themselves. Their cheaper, technology-driven vinyl counterparts, on the other hand, shrink, rip and crack. »Read Full Blog Post(1)

Air Force Lt. Col. Victor Fehrenbach has flown on dozens of combat missions over Iraq, Afghanistan and Kosovo as an F-15E Strike Eagle weapons officer. His commanders have called him a "war hero," "superstar" and "#1 officer/aviator."
But now Fehrenbach is flying into the fight of his career – this time in a federal courtroom and under fire from the military he's spent 19 years serving.
A U.S. Air Force panel has recommended Fehrenbach be discharged immediately under the military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy that bars openly gay and lesbian service members from the force. His attorneys are asking a federal judge to find the policy unconstitutional.
Fehrenbach is one of the highest-ranking military officers investigated for homosexual conduct. A discharge before September 2011 would cost him valuable military retirement benefits awarded to those who serve at least 20 years.
The case illustrates the continued threat of investigation and discharge for gay and lesbian service members, despite President Obama's desire to change the policy and Congress' initial steps toward a repeal.
The military investigation into Fehrenbach's sexuality was triggered in May 2008 when a civilian from Idaho accused Fehrenbach of sexually assaulting him. Police investigated the matter and later dismissed the charge as unfounded, acknowledging the accuser had a history of making false allegations.
Fehrenbach told police during an interrogation that he did have consensual sex with the man in the privacy of his home, 60 miles from the base. He did not know that military investigators were listening to his confession and obtained a recording of it.
Fehrenbach's lawyers argue he has never publicly said he's gay and kept his sexuality private as required under "don't ask, don't tell." They also argue Fehrenbach's conduct with a civilian in the privacy of his own home does not harm "morale, good order and discipline, and unit cohesion" in the military and that the government is unable to prove as much.
The Air Force has declined to comment on Fehrenbach's case while the charges are pending. But the Pentagon has made clear the "don't ask, don't tell" policy is still in effect and if someone outs themselves proceedings will continue.
In April, Defense Secretary Robert Gates announced new guidelines for how the military enforces "don't ask, don't tell," raising the bar on who can initiate an inquiry into allegations of misconduct by a gay or lesbian service member.
The changes included stricter scrutiny of information provided by third parties to military leaders, who, Gates said, "may be motivated to harm the service member."
While the modifications do apply to open and future cases, it's not clear how they might change the course of Fehrenbach's case, which relied initially on a third-party accusation.
"I have given my entire adult life to the Air Force that I love. I have deployed six times and risked my life for my country. In the two years that I've been sitting at my desk rather than inside my jet, I've offered to deploy numerous times," said Fehrenbach in a statement.

27 year old woman | San Diego, CA, USA | Seeking men 20-27 within 30 miles
Sanity and happiness are an impossible combination." - Mark Twain
I'm a 25 year old dolphin trainer in San Diego. I absolutely love my job and look forward to going to work every day. I'm really laid back - I do my best to find the positive in every situation...it makes life less stressful. I love to travel and experience new things...I caught the travel bug a long time ago. I've been to 5 out of the 7 continents - only Africa and Antarctica left! As of right now my plan is to take a very long round the world trip in late 2015. I'm going to start in China and Mongolia, slowly make my way down to Nepal to hike to Mt Everest base camp, then travel through India and as much as SE Asia as possible. Then it's off to Australia for a year with a working visa (so I can make some money to fund more travels) and then hop on over to New Zealand for a year to do the same! After that...who knows! As much as I love my job, my friends, and my family, there is so much of the world I want to see and I decided I'm not going to wait 40 years until I'm retired to do it. I'd love to find someone who wants to take this adventure with me but at the same time I'd rather do it by myself then not at all. I like to just hang out, go for walks/hikes, do fun and silly things, and just generally enjoy the little things in life. I'm a total dork but I've come to accept and embrace it! I'm also a big New England sports fan - Red Sox, Patriots, Bruins, Celtics, Revolution, you name it.

I work with animals for a living, so I obviously love animals and would definitely like to have some (when my budget allows)!
Just moved to San Diego so having fun exploring! Sunset Cliffs is currently my favorite spot. Hanging out/walking around Boston/NYC is always a great time. However New Zealand is probably my favorite place in the whole world.

Wolves bring Roy aboard, hope to add Batum
MINNEAPOLIS Brandon Roy is on his way to Minnesota to start his comeback in the same place his career began seven years ago. If Nicolas Batum has his way, he'll soon join his former Blazers teammate on the Timberwolves.
Roy agreed to terms of a two-year deal worth $10.4 million Thursday night, and Minnesota also agreed to terms with Batum on a four-year, $45 million deal with bonuses that could make the deal worth more than $50 million.
Roy announced his retirement in December after battling chronic knee injuries, and the Blazers used the amnesty clause on the remaining $63 million of his deal to make him an unrestricted free agent. But after receiving treatments on his knees over the last few months, Roy is ready to try to resume his career and will sign the offer sheet July 11 when the free agent moratorium ends.
Batum's path to Minnesota will be much more difficult. As a restricted free agent, the Blazers can match any offer made to Batum. But his agent told The Associated Press on Thursday night that Batum is hoping Portland doesn't match Minnesota's offer or executes a sign and trade to get him to his preferred destination.
Batum and agent Bouna Ndiaye met with Blazers officials Thursday and informed them that the versatile swingman feels his best fit is in Minnesota.
"It was a very cordial meeting. There were no hard feelings," Ndiaye said. "So Nicolas basically talked about his four years with the Blazers and he expressed that maybe it was time for him to look at a place where he could be more happy."
The Blazers have been adamant that they will match any offer for Batum and weren't interested in trading the 23-year-old Frenchman. Ndiaye said Batum has great respect for the Blazers and their fans, but believes playing for Timberwolves coach Rick Adelman and alongside point guard Ricky Rubio and forward Kevin Love is the best situation for him.
Batum has averaged 10.2 points and 3.9 rebounds over four seasons with Portland, part of the reason the Blazers see him as such a valuable piece moving forward.
"We appreciated the face-to-face meeting to get our message across," Blazers general manager Neil Olshey told The Oregonian. "And that message was that we intend to match any offer and we will not facilitate any sign-and-trade scenarios."
Batum visited Minnesota this week and met with owner Glen Taylor, team president David Kahn and Adelman and was sold on the franchise's direction and the Twin Cities. Ndiaye said Batum is hoping the Blazers will do for him what the Suns did for Steve Nash and grant his request to move on to a place where he can be happy and competitive.
"Nicolas said `I really respect the Blazers' organization, the Blazers' fans,'" Ndiaye said. "He even mentioned he really loved to be coached by (former assistant) Monty Williams, who was a mentor. But his choice, his heart went to Minneapolis."
Things started to sour for Batum and Portland in January when the Blazers didn't sign him to a long-term extension, saying at the time that they considered him a big part of their future but wanted to retain salary cap flexibility before reaching a deal with him. Ndiaye said Batum felt stifled in Portland's system and wanted to spend less time standing in the corner and shooting 3-pointers and more time breaking down defenders off the dribble and getting to the rim.

We have recently moved some data from an SQL Database instance to another one in another location.
I seemed to have noticed that there are some facets of our old database instance where the date is passed as String to the SQL server and SQL server is able to parse it properly. For example, the application would simply pass a string value of "15/01/2010" and the database would immediately recognize it as 5th of January 2010. Is there a setting in SQL server which I need to turn on or modify cause right now, when I passed the same string value, what happens is that an error is being generated cause it cannot understand the string value passed as a date.
Thanks for your inputs.

Privacy Concerns
A few people have emailed me concerned about location etc. I am a sole developer, I'm not spending my time trying to locate and spy on you! ;)
I use an analytics library which shows me which countries the apps I write are downloaded which helps me to decide which languages to localise for first.
The app also sends me statistics about crashes so that I can detect any bugs I introduce and fix them quickly.
Lastly, for those who have the free version, the Google ads use location to serve you ads in the right language and the location that suits you e.g. adverts for American products in English rather than for German products in German.
I hope this helps to explain why these permissions exist.

Bank Keeper the Gunslinger
It will transfer you to the world of the American Wild West, where you will be a marshal, a gunslinger, whose task is to protect the bank from bandits. It is visited by regular clients who bring their money as well as by outlaws who try to rob it. Your task will be to wipe out the robbers and keep the clients safe, so be careful not to shoot them.
Your goal is to collect $ 10,000 from the clients and by shooting the bandits during the day (level) in order to pass on to the next one.
Beware as the bandits become faster and more numerous with each level. Later on even some clients may want to become gunslinging outlaws and try to rob your bank.
At the moment the game includes one bank only, but we are going to add other banks in the future.
