FERGIE has TWO peas in the pod! Pals say the "Glamorous" Grammy winner is pregnant with twins.
After a bumpy four years, the Black Eyed Peas singer, 37, and her husband, 40-year-old "Transformers" star Josh Duhamel, are thrilled the stork is finally en route.
"Fergie and Josh feel like they hit the baby jackpot," a close friend told The ENQUIRER.
"THEY WAITED A LONG TIME, BUT IT'S ALL paying off because they say they're expecting twins. They couldn't be happier!"
But life wasn't always as blissful for the Hollywood hipsters. As The ENQUIRER revealed, the couple came dangerously close to splitting before their first wedding anniversary after Josh cheated with busty blonde stripper Nicole Forrester while he was filming a movie in Atlanta, Ga.
Our blockbuster exclusive on Josh's sizzling 2009 tryst with Nicole "shattered Fergie's heart and very nearly drove them to divorce court," the source said.
"But in time they picked up the pieces and moved on because of their deep love for each other and strong desire to start a family."
In the past year, the "Big Girls Don't Cry" singer and her hunky hubby apparently made starting a family their top priority.
"Fergie cut back on her career, and she's taken really good care of herself. No booze, a healthy diet and plenty of sex!" said the source.
"Now it's all paid off. Josh's fling is just a distant memory, and the Duhamels have shifted their nursery plans into overdrive – times TWO!"

David Sokol was a member of one of the most elite groups in the world -- the Berkshire 4. And now his abrupt resignation from Berkshire Hathaway has not only taken him out of the running as a possible successor to Warren Buffett but has shaken up a succession plan at one of the most venerable companies in the world.
Many analysts are asking if the circumstances surrounding Sokol's surprising resignation will have repercussions for Berkshire Hathaway's solid gold reputation.
In a letter released to shareholders Wednesday, Buffett, announced that Sokol had submitted his resignation March 28. It wasn't the first time that Sokol had submitted a resignation letter to his boss, but it was the first time that Buffett had accepted one. Long seen as a rising star, Sokol had spent 11 years at Berkshire, where he was CEO of NetJets, one of the conglomerate's holding companies.
The questions surrounding Sokol's resignation focused on a $10 million investment Sokol made in a chemical company, Lubrizol, in January, which Berkshire Hathaway would acquire for $9 billion two months later, largely at Sokol's suggestion.
Sokol's investment value rose $3 million after the purchase.
In his letter, Buffett made it clear that Sokol's resignation had not come from his own urging, nor did it have to do with Sokol's private investment in Lubrizol. Instead, he said that Sokol had wanted to devote more time to investing "his family's resources."
In interviews both Wednesday evening and Thursday morning, Sokol made it clear that he had told Berkshire's general counsel of his personal investment in Lubrizol. For his part, Buffett said that while he had not asked Sokol about any possible investments he may have made, he did find out about them through Sokol's legal filings. Buffett went on to say that both he and Sokol did not believe that the share purchases were "in any way unlawful."
As for the larger picture, what does this mean for Berkshire's solid gold reputation with investors? How big of a monkey wrench does Sokol's resignation throw into a succession plan? In a note to investors Thursday morning, Doug Kass, a prominent money manager, had this to say.
"While the David Sokol situation at Berkshire Hathaway is not quite "a tempest in a teapot," the large after-hours drop to $83 a share more than discounts the economic consequence to the company, which is likely to be minor. Let me make it clear that the facts and timing relating to Sokol's purchase of Lubrizol stock are disturbing, as the calendar of facts surrounding the situation may be inconsistent with the law. Moreover, it certainly is inconsistent with the ethics and investment principles for which Warren Buffett has stood over the decades."

My HTPC Project (Worklog)
Hello fellow NV'ers. It's finally time for me to start putting together my first HTPC and I would like to share the experience with you all. So let's get started.
1. Be able to watch all analog and digital channels provided by Comcast.
2. Record/Schedule Record TV shows.
3. Play both DVD discs and movies backed up on an internal hard drive.
4. Play backed up music from both my collection and the future wifey's collection.
5. Eventually play HD-DVDs, Blu-Ray discs, or both.
6. Be able to access any content above on any trusted PC/Laptop on my network.
7. Be able to access any content above using XBOX 360's extender.
What I Have So Far
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3L
Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo E4300
RAM: 2X1GB Corsair XMS DDR2-800
Video Card: MSI 8600GT Twin Turbo
Hard Drive: TBB (To be bought)
Power Supply: Rosewill 450 Watts
CD/DVD Drive: Old DVD-ROM Drive, will be replacing
Operating System: See Below
Case: See Below
Planning on Buying
1. 4x250GB Hard Drives (No RAID right off the bat, don't see the point)
2. New SATA DVD-ROM Drive
3. Copy of Windows Vista Home Premium (I only have Vista Ultimate x64, no product key)
4. CoolerMaster Elite 330 Case
Ok, so now you know the basics of my project. I basically want to build not only a HTPC for my main TV, but I also want it to be a media server that serves all of my PCs and Laptops on my network. Later on in the future, I would like to have this connected with speakers that run through the entire house. :D Doesn't sound too hard of a project, HOWEVER, getting everything the way you want it takes quite some time.
What Have I Done So Far?
First, I bought a Hauppauge HVR-1600 TV Tuner card and to be honest, IT SUCKS. I was really hoping on better quality out of this card but all I see is cheap parts with cheap, useless software. I tried using Vista's MCE to configure the card and scan for channels using my Comcast Motorola STB, but it's a no go. Once it is manually configured, I get no digital channels, only analog. Even a simple Firewire cable and VLC captures my digital channels in 1080i!!! I'm taking it back tonight and replacing it for Visiontek's HD 600 Wonder PCI-e solution.
I did manage to test out Vista's MCE TV capabilities today and I'm stunned. I'm really digging the interface and the ease of recording, playback, TV guide and movie guide. Can't wait to get everything set up the way I want it.
This process will take a bit of time because money is short. I will be getting a new case probably this week, following with a copy of Vista HP right after Christmas time. Then a new hard drive will be in the mix in January.
Hope you guys enjoy this worklog, I've never done one before so keep an eye out for updates. Thanks guys!
Re: My HTPC Project (Worklog)
Just got back from CC and BB, only a little disappointed. They did not have the Visiontek HD600, but rather only had the USB stick model instead. I did buy the Visiontek HD650 which has dual TV tuners for about $40 more than what I spent last night. I won't get to try it out until tomorrow night so I'll post more impressions later!
Re: My HTPC Project (Worklog)
Ok Six,will follow this thread,good luck with the build :thumbsup:
Re: My HTPC Project (Worklog)
Re: My HTPC Project (Worklog)
analog tuners... yuck :p The 550 was such a load of BS to bad to it really hurt the 650 upon release.You might not know this but there was a 20 thousand some post thread over at hexus made by yours truly. (before I was banned :D) I was really following the tuner from its announcement till its release. What happened was they dropped support for there own software and then backed third party's for a profit. They even went as far as altering current working software so that it would no longer function. It was a pretty big deal. Then there drivers had IRQ issues on certine boards and then they didn't implement driver comb filters for the first month after release and it took even longer to get control of the enhancements like sharpening. It really was a huge flop among those that were interested.
Re: My HTPC Project (Worklog)
You might want to have a look at mythtv. Its can be a little finicky to setup but once its running it works great. Does everything you need except for perhaps that 360 extender stuff. It will record over firewire same as vlc.
Re: My HTPC Project (Worklog)
Re: My HTPC Project (Worklog)
Alright. As you may know, I bought the Visiontek HD650 last night and I still can't get any of my local channels in HD! Comcast apparently has encrypted the channels and I can't get anything! If I get a connection through the cable box, the resolution goes straight down the crapper, due to the coaxial connection no doubt.
I guess that I'm going to keep the card for right now and here's the reason why. I have a small side project to do for my mom. She has a few 8MM camcorder tapes and VHS tapes she wants converted over to DVD. Also, this card does just fine with analog channels. I've been using Vista's MCE via XBOX 360, recording parts of movies and such. I really wish this would work with my HD channels, at least the basic local ones but I guess I'll have to wait until I move out (put an antenna up or something).
I'm just really surprised at Vista's MCE TBH. Everything is real easy and fast to set up, recording is nice and fast and sharing media is really easy too. Can't wait to get everything set up the way I want it!
Once I get my case and a copy of Vista in, I'll start taking pictures of all my components. Sorry for the lack of pics lol. Thanks for viewing guys! Any input will greatly be appreciated.
Re: My HTPC Project (Worklog)
did you consider HD channels over the air?
theres only the local channels, but most ppl's favorite shows are on local stations (NBC, CBS, FOX, ABC, etc.)
Re: My HTPC Project (Worklog)
Re: My HTPC Project (Worklog)
You need a qam tuner and a molded cable box ;) Or pick upa cable card off of ebay thats been tweaked and a decent tuner with cable card support.

The majority of the 51 million people displaced in the world today are in protracted situations, forcing them to live in limbo for years. This policy brief by the UN Deputy High Commissioner for Refugees argues for long-term development solutions and a new narrative that emphasizes refugees' potential to contribute to host and origin communities through their own human capital, transnational connections, and dedicated international assistance.
Today's refugee protection regime, established in the aftermath of World War II, is ill-equipped to meet the protection needs of contemporary displacement situations. This report explores the main sources of strain on the existing system of protection, and examines the two most promising avenues for strengthening the system: development- and mobility-focused approaches.
Marking the release of the 12th MPI-IOM Issue in Brief, this event in Bangkok examined the emerging trends in women's labor migration in the Asia-Pacific region, and the related opportunities and challenges. The audio does not include opening remarks and begins with the author's presentation.
The number of women migrants in many countries in the Asia-Pacific region is on the rise. While migration can provide unique opportunities for female workers to improve their livelihoods and gain greater autonomy, it also exposes them to new types of vulnerability and discrimination. This brief looks at the trends and patterns in female labor migration in the Asia-Pacific region as well as key policy challenges relating to female migration.
Marking the release of the MPI-IOM 12th Issue in Brief, this event in Bangkok examined the emerging trends in women's labor migration in the Asia-Pacific region, and the related opportunities and challenges.
In light of the recognition of the need for a new approach to immigrant integration policy in the European Union, policymakers and other actors are beginning to look at the role that origin countries can play in the integration process. This policy brief explores the transnational dynamics at work behind the scenes of integration policy, including wider sociopolitical factors in origin and destination countries.
While a number of major migrant-sending countries like Morocco and Turkey have started to take an active role in the integration of their migrants abroad, the role of subnational authorities has been overshadowed by diaspora engagement initiatives at the national level. This report investigates how the activities of origin countries' regional and local institutions may improve the lives of emigrants to Member States of the European Union.
While there is growing consensus on the value of immigrant integration support prior to departure, such initiatives generally have not fully realized their potential. This policy brief reviews promising examples of predeparture measures for labor market integration in Europe that are jointly designed and/or run by origin- and destination-country actors, illustrating their potential to help effectively address some of the most stubborn obstacles to successful integration.
In a personal tribute published in the Migration Information Source, MPI's online journal, MPI President Emeritus Demetrios G. Papademetriou reflects on the life and career of Graeme Hugo, a world-renowned scholar and Director of the Australian Population and Migration Research Centre at the University of Adelaide, who died in January 2015.
A discussion in Brussels examining how useful existing predeparture measures are in facilitating migrants' labor market insertion, examples of structural cooperation between origin and EU destination countries, and successful private-sector practices.
This Bangkok launch of the MPI-IOM Issue in Brief "A 'Freer' Flow of Skilled Labour within ASEAN: Aspirations, Opportunities and Challenges in 2015 and Beyond" explored the creation of the ASEAN Economic Community and its vision of a freer flow of skilled labor, as well as other migration issues affecting the region.
A breakfast briefing discussing the transformation of the ASEAN region into a single market and production base, including the steps that can be taken towards fuller labor mobility for high-skilled migrants.
Skilled labor migration is particularly important for developing countries seeking growth and looking to fill skills shortages. How can Member States of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) facilitate "freer" flows of skilled migration? This joint policy brief with the International Organization for Migration (IOM) explores the challenges and prospects for cooperation.
Driven by rising migrant deaths in the Mediterranean, the Bay of Bengal, the Red Sea, and elsewhere, as well as by the challenges to border-control policies implicit in maritime migration, representatives of states, civil society, and international organizations gathered in December 2014 under the auspices of the UN High Commissioner for Refugees to discuss ways to limit the loss of life and foster international cooperation. This commentary explores the issues and challenges surrounding irregular maritime migration.
A discussion and release in Bangkok of an MPI-IOM issue brief examining the role of migration as a driver for development in Asia and how to integrate migration-related targets and indicators into the post-2015 development agenda. The issue brief highlights three areas that require specific attention: (1) fostering partnerships to promote development, (2) promoting and protecting migrants' rights and well-being, and (3) reducing the costs and risks of human mobility.
The Member States of the United Nations must negotiate a set of sustainable development goals (SDGs) that will frame a new international development agenda to replace the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) that expire in 2015. This issue brief examines how migration can be integrated into the post-2015 development agenda, outlining proposed migration targets and elements for indicators within the SDGs.
A discussion and release of an MPI-IOM issue brief examining the role of migration as a driver for development in Asia and how to integrate migration related targets and indicators into the post-2015 development agenda.
MPI has produced profiles of 15 diaspora communities in the United States, gathering in one place key demographic data and analysis on diasporas from Bangladesh, Colombia, El Salvador, Egypt, Ethiopia, Ghana, Haiti, India, Kenya, Mexico, Morocco, Nigeria, Pakistan, the Philippines, and Vietnam. The profiles examine population size, educational attainment, household income, employment patterns, geographic distribution, and remittance volume.
A discussion with findings from an ORSAM report that evaluates the effect of the Syrian refugee crisis on Turkey, Lebanon, Jordan, and Iraq, as well as on the more than 3 million Syrians who have fled their homeland to become refugees in neighboring countries. The discussion focused on the social and economic impact of the refugees in Turkey, with remarks by the Director General of Turkey's state-run relief agency, AFAD.
Offering insights on migration issues affecting the Asia-Pacific region today, this event launches an issue brief that explores Asia-Pacific priorities for the 2014 Global Forum on Migration and Development and examines ways the GMFD can be a results-oriented forum.

This Has to Come to an End
- I read some of the articles from ex-wives that continually claim, "My children's father is a deadbeat dad." Look, there are a small majority of men that don't pay child support because they just don't want to, but there's a larger majority of men who have lost their jobs, and they're incapable of supporting themselves - let alone anyone else. In Illinois, it's been proven that 10 out of 10 arrearage cases brought against divorced father are false. Why? Because it's free. And arrearage numbers are made up by ex-wives for nothing more than vindictiveness, and the Illinois Attorney General office never verifies the arrearage claims brought against divorced fathers. Here's a stat for all divorced mothers: 48% of women on welfare are married with their husbands living in the same household, and 31% of women on welfare are single and have no idea who there children's biological fathers are. I received this information right from the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services. The last 22% are widows.

They Are Not Legally Allowed To
- I have a 6-month-old daughter, and we desperately need the support from her father. He was all gung-ho before, but then he decided to take a hike and play his games and have all the girls and smut he wants. Now he claims he wants to see her, but he pawns her off on his mother and ignores her completely. I am confused at how the system could allow such a stupid thing to happen. I was forced onto welfare, and he is abusing the system by hiding behind a disability. This is B.S., and if he wanted, he could kidnap my little girl and I would never see her again. I am worried about his erratic behavior and harassment of me, wanting nothing but a three letter word. Right now he says he can't see his daughter because he can't talk to me. It's about the baby, not me! He truly is a deadbeat. Not all dads are, but a lot of them...well...I can't say they will ever take proper responsibility for their kids. I live in Canada. The laws should change everywhere to make it fair for the kids, not the other parent.

Living in the Twilight Zone
- I recently got the courage to stand up to my kids' fathers' abuse after eight years and two young children. I have endured physical, mental, and emotional abuse in front of my children. I did everything the police told me to do after he was removed from the home. I told them I feared him, and I got an emergency order of protection - only for it to be dismissed to a refrainment order! He broke it, and I called police each time - only for them to tell me it's a family court issue. He has put in six petitions in a month and a half, trying to take my children away from me. I am a full time student and made the decision on schooling for my children, which was something their father despised and did everything in his power to keep me from accomplishing. He has told our five-year-old that his mother doesn't love him, he's taken my car, my school books, and made invalid statements about my character - all while living under his mom's roof, driving a new 745 BMW, not paying support, and has not had a job since '99. He also is a known drug dealer. What do I do?
- —Guest Nat'e
- I have three children. My ex owes $16,000. We've been to court seven times in a year. The judge has given him specific timelines and amounts to pay. Each time he has not complied. They finally issued an arrest warrant, and the DOR lost the warrant! So they let him go. The court then ordered another court date. They now lowered his child support payment s and let him go yet again. What is the point in the judge giving a court order when they just keep changing it? I watched the judge let six non-paying parents just leave the courtroom. Between them, $40,000 was owed to children. If the original orders were enforced, this amount would probably not only be less, but might actually be paid.
- —Guest Kirsten
Unfair System
- I am a single parent of a 15-year-old girl. I have had custody of her since May of 2005. I receive child support, and I pay child support. The horror is that I pay $70.00 a week for my son, but I only receive $23.00 for my little girl. There is nothing right about that.
- —Guest Marryo M Dallas
Tired of the Fight
- My ex is at it again. Our 12-year-old asked me if he could go live with his dad today. Not that he is unhappy here, or abused in any way, but dad blows money on him just to buy him. Child support recently went up from $160.00 per month to $813.00 per month. Now my ex wants my son to live with him so he doesn't have to pay! My ex has tried this before, and was unsuccessful. Because my son is an honor student; he's a well mannered, loving child. Going to dad's every other weekend is like a mini-vacation where there's no rules, bad food, no bed time, and no supervision. What child wouldn't love that? But my ex works second shift, and a lot of over time. And when he is home, he is either sleeping or on the computer on dating sites. He has no time to be a parent - or the desire to! My son is used to a schedule, chores, good home cooked meals, and a mother who is involved in his life. Living with his dad would destroy my son. But I don't know what to do. Does anyone have any ideas for how to handle this? I'm trying to save my son.

State Doubled Child Support Error
- My ex decided that she wanted to be single and try to "latch" on to some of our "professional athlete" friends and associates. It didn't work out for her, and she moved my two girls from state to state. She finally settled in New Orleans, while my oldest went and lived with my mother on the East Coast. I sent child support to both households because I was working out of the country. I returned last year. Both of our daughters are over 18, and the state of Louisiana doubled the order when my eldest turned 18. For the last year I have been fighting with the state to look into their error. I have sent them the original order from the state of Florida - numerous times - only to be told that they will look into it and get back to me. Meanwhile, the ex is laughing all the way to the bank, as she has received almost $15,000 that she should not have gotten, not to mention that my credit score has dropped from 690 to 570. I had no debt and I just tried to do the right thing. I hear your stories, but the system is broken,
- —Guest Chris
I'm Tired!
- My life was going good until I left my son's father. He brought my son everything. I never had to spent money. He was hurt that I left him, and now he feels that he should hurt me by not giving me any support. My son's father owns a restaurant. He pays for my son's private school (his choice). Yet, he feels that paying for school is his child support. My son is 10 now. I left his father when he was 8. Is paying for private school enough?
- —Guest Shelly
How Do They Sleep at Night?
- I made a couple of payments, and then I lost my job. Soon after that I lost my car. I met a girl who was able to get me back on my feet, and we moved to a new city. After just over a year of looking, I finally got a new job about two months ago and opened a checking account. The only thing I've used the account for is paying the electric bill. I'm averaging about 15 hours a week at $7 per hour in an area with the highest unemployment rate in the nation. This morning I get up, and not only has child support enforcement taken all the money from my account, but it's suddenly over $3000 negative. So, how do they sleep at night? I didn't even know they had done this until I tried to put gas in my truck and could not. I can't put gas into my truck now because they just took all my money. That also means I can't get to my job because I live in a rural area and it's 16 miles to work. I can't get food stamps because of an outdated law, and I can't get a job because there aren't any. Now what?
- —Guest Matthew
Dads Get Treated WORSE? HA....
- I got a divorce from the kid's dad. And he said he wanted the kids every other week for four days, but every time it's his turn, I have to take them to his mother's because he has no time for them. And child support...he says he has no money! But he owns a Lamborghini, a Cadillac, other businesses, and a house - but he doesn't have the money to pay child support? And he had another child before our divorce was even finalized. The system is a joke! He looked like a good man - and father - but he's a deadbeat, which his own children have already started noticing. I am still waiting for the system to start collecting for the kids!
- —Guest Glen
I Am a Debtor
- Get this, she always had the bank card. She spent all the household money. We spent ten years together and had three children. I made $100,000.00 per year for the ten years I was with her. Then, she gets into drugs with her "friends" and starts sleeping with them! After two phases of rehab, she takes the children away to another town - via lawyer - and she gets legal aid. Meanwhile, I pay $350.00 per hour! We get nearly nothing for the house. I'm nothing to anyone except a money tree that produces! I owe $1,597.00 per month in child support, and I'm homeless!
- —Guest Robbed
Help for Deadbeats
- Dad of five ... father to none! He took a hike and now owes nine years of unpaid child support - somewhere around $100K. His first set of kids are in their 30's, and he's still being garnished for their support after he abandoned them in California to move to Texas. Also, I found out that he never divorced his wife! He is a functioning alcoholic/drug user, and after two times in rehab, he's still drinking/using. He drives a truck and earns $60-$70K per year. Now he owes roughly $80K - and he's paid about $500 total. He has seen his kid fewer than five hours in nine years. He claims he wants visitation, so I was forced to move back to Texas, thirty minutes away from him. But, still, we never saw him. He has no contact with our child (no calls, no cards, nothing in nine years!), and he's back in hiding again. The only number we had for him is now disconnected, and he has no known address. The court would force visitation, but not allow supervision or bother to collect child support. Meanwhile, he's total stranger to our child. The case is still pending ten years later. The judge says "all dads are good dads," and the Attorney General's office is awful. Family court is a sham, and the whole process is a mess. Meanwhile, dad's on year ten now - Scott free!

No Christmas for My Son
- I have been waiting since November 1 to get my child support in Texas, and come to find out they sent the money to my ex and he cashed it! So he had himself a good Christmas, and I'm here without money. Now child support says they have no order to collect from him, but the divorce decree says it was supposed to start in November. I am so angry! I asked what to do, and the woman at the child support office said, "I don't know!" Well, my ex now wants to put our son on his income tax. Yeah, right ... whatever! I don't think he should be able to, no matter what the divorce paper says!
- —Guest angry
Worthless Father
- Well, I don't know where to start. My son is almost ten, and his dad has made a total of fifteen child support payments, if I'm lucky. He is in hiding, works under the table, and cannot be found anywhere. He wouldn't even come to his own father's funeral. I think he was afraid of being report and picked up. He has a warrant for his arrest and knows it. Instead of just helping to support his son, he would rather hide like a coward. He hasn't called my son for his birthday, Christmas, or anything else in two years. He has no idea how he is doing in school, or - to be frank - what he even looks like these days. I have be apart from this man for eight years and have married the man of my dreams now, and he is a wonderful father to my son. Yes, I call him my son, for his real dad has never helped, never taken him to the doctors, never watched him so I could go to work the two jobs I had when his dad went to jail, never had to sit up with him at night with a 102 fever and rush him to the ER. It is my goal to track him down and collect back payments.

CSEA is a Scam
- I met a woman in 1999 who was living at the YMCA and didn't have custody of her other four kids at the time. I was a bus driver, and she came on to me. My stupid self fell for it. I bought a house and allowed her 13-year-old son to come up to live with us because he had molested his younger brother. She constantly made excuses for them (the kids) and about not working. I got fed up, finally, with the lies and the disrespect and left (like a dummy) because we had a child in 2006 and she ended up pregnant again in 2007. But I began to think she cheated with someone right under my radar ... that's another story. Well, we went to court and she said, "He just doesn't want to pay." I took care of her and her behavioral problem-sons for 10 years! They ended up taking back support and she constantly - to this day - harasses me because I won't get the kids when SHE wants me to. As a result, I don't trust women with kids who come from poverty-stricken towns in Ohio. Men beware!

10 Funniest Cat Videos
This list of the 10 funniest cat videos cover many of the outlandish predicaments that these cute and cuddly felines somehow get themselves into.
This list of the 10 funniest cat videos cover many of the outlandish predicaments that these cute and cuddly felines somehow get themselves into.
Why we do people try to make their dogs wear shoes? Some owners may think it's cute, but here's video proof that dogs don't like it.
Gambling can become an addiction, one that affects us all. Even cats.
Cats have many enemies — dogs are the obvious one, but they have several other rivalries as well.
A fish out of water is almost as funny as a dog in it.
This is otter-ly amazing. These otters at Smithsonian's National Zoo show off their skills on a keyboard.
One day when cats take over the world, we will all know the precise moment we truly glimpsed just how smart they are.
Wet and wild! That's how the two new river otters are described at the Great Lakes Aquarium. Have you met them yet? If you haven't had the chance to welcome them in person, no worries, now you can greet them by name, thanks to nearly 5,000 votes!
My friend Lisa works on Park Point and was able to snap a couple of shots of the new baby fox. He IS darling!!! Many people have mixed feelings of a family of fox living on the famous peninsula. Residents on the point have actually named the fox. I train for Grandma's Half Marathon on the Point and while I was freaked a little the first time I saw the fox, I've come to look for her near the boat house. Now that there's a baby, I'm really going to be searching for a peek!
Cats love to squeeze into tight spaces: barely open drawers, the gap between the wall and the couch, and, of course, cat-size jars.
The "Hero Cat" Tara who saved her family's little boy from a dog attack was honored last night by throwing out the first pitch. It was at a Bakersfield Blaze ball game, and they had to use a fishing line to make it happen.
Every Wednesday we chat with Animal Allies about what's going on at the shelter. They recently celebrated 5 years in their new building and location. Today they also introduced us to Dream, who is a great senior cat looking for a nice home.

Shift the enforcement and management of IT GRC requirements from people to Microsoft technologies.
Today's IT organizations often find it challenging to comply with governance, risk and compliance (GRC) initiatives, whether they are mandated regulatory law or required internal policies and guidelines. Such work is typically manually intensive, time consuming, and expensive.
Microsoft System Center solutions assist medium and large organizations in managing and automating their IT GRC responsibilities; improving IT GRC program management efficiency while reducing costs; simplifying and consolidating IT GRC workloads; and increasing executive, audit and management visibility into their GRC programs.
This release includes both the Microsoft® IT GRC Process Management Pack and the Compliance Management Series for System Center Service Manager.
Implementing this end to end solution with System Center allows organizations to shift the enforcement and management of IT GRC requirements away from personnel and directly to the underlying Microsoft technologies, enabling them to meet their compliance and regulatory commitments in an efficient and reliable manner.
System Center Service Manager helps reduce costs and improve IT responsiveness through the power of its integrated platform. With built-in processes and workflow for incident and problem resolution, change control, and its configuration management database, Service Manager orchestrates activities and connects knowledge with System Center Operations Manager, System Center Configuration Manager, and Active Directory® Domain Services.
The IT GRC Process Management Pack for System Center Service Manager combined with the IT Compliance Management Series help customers understand and bind complex business objectives to their Microsoft infrastructure in an operationally efficient manner.
System Center Service Manager and the IT GRC solution provide a customizable extensible platform to enable customers and partners implement additional GRC capabilities.
IT GRC Process Management Pack for System Center Service Manager
The IT GRC Process Management Pack for System Center Service Manager provides end-to-end compliance management and automation for desktop and datacenter computers. Deeply integrated with Service Manager, the IT GRC Process Management pack
translates complex regulations and standards into authoritative control objectives and control activities for the IT organization's compliance program.
IT Compliance Management Series for System Center Service Manager
The IT Compliance Management Series bridges the knowledge gap by translating auditor expectations and IT GRC authority document requirements into real IT tasks through the use of control activities that are specific to a particular technology or platform. This Solution Accelerator takes advantage of the ability of Microsoft® System Center Service Manager to integrate with System Center Configuration Manager to automate the monitoring, validation, and reporting of the compliance state of Microsoft products. The supplied control activities link complex IT GRC requirements, stated as control objectives, to actual product configuration settings enabling System Center to act as an IT GRC management and oversight solution for an organization.
The series includes control activities and test automation for Windows Server® 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2, and Windows® 7, as well as additional prescriptive guidance for System Center Service Manager, System Center Configuration Manager, and System Center Operations Manager.
Download the beta materials. To join the beta and download the beta materials, visit the System Center Service Manager IT GRC Public Beta 2 site. After you are successfully registered, all the software you'll need will be available under the Downloads link.

2 doubles
Grand slam HR
6 RBIs
I benched him on my fantasy team tonight
lol, didn't you see that grand slam coming from the second he stepped to the dish?
Guy you trade last year to hopefully help out the terrible bullpen hits a HR versus the very bullpen he was traded to help. Irony at its finest I think.
I'm glad we didn't bring Salmon in as a fresh arm to pitch to Lopez or earlier batters! Who knows what would gave happened there, good thing we lucked out!
That's the first time all year Coutlangus has really been roughed up. He's probably fatigued due to pitching so much lately. I have a feeling he'll be the one to go down now when Bray returns when it should be Stanton as the one who is sent out. Coutlangus has been very good except for tonight.
the all knowing idiot narron makes lopez bat right where he has better numbers instead of bringing in a righty to make him bat left where he is hitting oh .216 that's a no brainer for me
Did anyone see the replay of Bowden in the stands after the granny? OTOH I have no faith in Lohse starting tomorrow.

"You cannot read Lifesigns and not be moved… This book will undoubtedly find its place among the classics of twentieth-century literature." –Grand Rapids PressThe inspirational writings of Henri Nouwen have touched millions of readers all over the world. Much beloved as a lecturer, spiritual guide, and especially as an author, he communicated a profound message of hope that finds great resonance in today's world.In his now classic work Lifesigns, he explores what he saw as three of the most vital aspects of his ministry. The first of these is the Gospel invitation to intimacy, which Nouwen describes as communion with God and relationship with others. The second is the call to fecundity, exhorting us to be open to a fruitful life of change and growth. And the third, the experience of ecstasy, extends the Gospel promise "that your joy may be full." Inspired by L'Arche, the worldwide network of communities where handicapped people and their assistants try to live together in the spirit of the Scriptures, Nouwen shows how these three elements offer the essential key to a life free from the domination of fear and filled instead with hope and love.
You cannot read Lifesigns and not be moved . . . This book will undoubtedly find its place among the classics of twentieth-century literature." —Grand Rapids Press
Henri J. M. Nouwen (1932-1996) was a Catholic priest who taught at several theological institutions and universities in his home country of the Netherlands and in the United States. He spent the final years of his life teaching and ministering… More about Henri Nouwen

Both Lupita Nyongo ("12 Years a Slave") and Barkhad Abdi ("Captain Phillips") have earned Oscar nominations for their feature film debuts, making this the first time in 17 years that two actors have done so. The last time was Edward Norton ("Primal Fear") and Emily Watson ("Breaking the Waves") in 1996; if their careers are any indication, Nyongo and Abdi have a lot to look forward to regardless of the Oscar results. Since winning at Critics' Choice and the SAG Awards, Nyongo has dramatically widened her lead in the Best Supporting Actress race over Golden Globe champ Jennifer Lawrence ("American Hustle"). Indeed, Supporting Actress has crowned more debuts that any other category; Nyongo would be the ninth, following: Gale Sondergaard ("Anthony Adverse," 1936) Katina Paxinou ("For Whom the Bell Tolls," 1943) Mercedes McCambridge ("All the King's Men," 1949) »

Originally written on MetsMinor.net | Last updated 8/27/13
St. Lucie 5, Charlotte 2 With their backs against the proverbial wall, the St. Luice Mets staved off playoff elimination for at least one more day following a rare solid performance from starting pitcher Domingo Tapia in a 5-2 victory over first-place Charlotte at Tradition Field on Monday night. The win also halted their six-game losing streak. The Mets, who are one game away from being bounced out of contention for the postseason, broke open a 2-2 tie with three runs in the eighth inning, and closer T.J. Chism held the Stone Crabs scoreless in the ninth inning to preserve Tapia's gem. Second baseman T.J. Rivera and outfielder Dustin Lawley each finished with two hits and a pair of RBI for St. Lucie (67-59), which pulled within five games of Charlotte (64-62) for the top spot in the FSL South Division. Rivera continued his torrid play with a two-run homer in the first inning — his second long ball of the season — to give the Mets an early advantage. Both of his home runs have come ...

The Islamization of Morocco
Extremism is displacing moderation in the North African kingdom.
Oct 2, 2006, Vol. 12, No. 03 • By OLIVIER GUITTA
A LITTLE MORE THAN three years ago, Morocco experienced Islamic terrorism firsthand. On May 16, 2003, Casablanca was hit with four simultaneous attacks that left 45 people dead and hundreds injured. The attacks were perpetrated by Moroccan citizens who were members of the al Qaeda-affiliated Moroccan Islamic Combatant Group (known by its French acronym, GICM).
Needless to say, the kingdom was stunned that its sons had turned violently against it. Now, the dismantling of another extensive Islamist cell in Morocco confirms that extremism is spreading inside what has long been viewed as one of the most moderate countries in the Arab world.
In a series of arrests over the past month, Moroccan authorities have seized 59 people and over 30 kilograms of TNT, more than was used in the 2003 attacks but of the same type. The alleged targets were political and military leaders, along with locations in Marrakesh, Morocco's premier tourist destination, the air force base of Salé, and the U.S. embassy in Rabat.
But the most troubling aspect of this cell by far is its membership. While the suicide bombers of 2003 came from the slums around Casa blanca, the newly arrested suspects are from all walks of life. They include five members of the military, three policemen, a Domestic Security officer, two imams, and four society women. Two of these women, the wives of Royal Air Morocco pilots, had volunteered for suicide missions in Iraq and Israel.
The cell leader, Hassan Khattab, who had spent two years in prison for his support for the 2003 terror attacks, had persuaded the women to finance local jihadi attacks because Morocco is the "ally of the Americans and the Zionists." Coincidentally, these four women had befriended Fatiha Hassani, the widow of the top Moroccan al Qaeda operative who was killed by Saudi forces in April 2005. The indictment accuses the cell members of "planning terrorist acts to overthrow the regime and install an Islamic caliphate."
The potential infiltration of the army by jihadists has clearly alarmed the authorities. As of August 31, they have eliminated compulsory military service in order to avoid giving free military training to potential terrorists. In addition, military officers and troops alike have been forbidden to perform Friday prayers in uniform.
Beyond the army, there are other clear signs of the rapid Islamization of Moroccan society. Nowhere is this more apparent than in women's dress. In just a few years, Moroccan women have gone from the miniskirt to the hijab. Interviewed in the French daily Le Monde a few months ago, a Moroccan high school teacher named Soukaina (she said she was afraid to use her last name) said that she no longer recognizes her country. Twenty years ago her high school had only one veiled teacher. Today everyone is veiled, teachers and students alike. Soukaina resigned more than a year ago under subtle pressure from Islamists, who wanted her to wear the hijab. She concluded: "It is only a matter of time until Islamists are leading the country."
Both in Morocco's big cities and in its villages, street vendors sell Islamist propaganda calling for jihad and the subjugation of women, spewing anti-Semitism and hatred of the West, on audio and video tapes, CDs and DVDs. One of the bestselling CDs is a rant by a salafi preacher named Abdellah Nihari, who teaches that "women are creatures of Satan" even when they are veiled. For him, women's liberation is to blame for every evil in society. Islamists also have their own freelance "religious police" who operate illegally, mostly on beaches, targeting unmarried couples for harassment, assault, and even, in a few cases in recent years, murder.
Another sign of Islamization can be found in opinion surveys of Moroccan youths. According to a January 2006 study by L'Economiste, 44 percent of Moroccans aged 16 to 29 think al Qaeda is not a terrorist organization, 38 percent "don't know," and a mere 18 percent consider it a terrorist group. Furthermore, a July 2006 landmark report ordered by the Ministry of Planning and entitled "Morocco 2030" revealed that lots of high school graduates dream of a liberated Palestine, the destruction of Israel, and the fall of the United States.
In such an environment it's only natural that the leading Islamist party--the PJD (Justice and Development party), closely linked to the Muslim Brotherhood--has been gaining traction. Already the third largest party in parliament, the PJD is projected to win 47 percent of the vote in the 2007 parliamentary elections, according to a recent poll by the International Republican Institute. This would make it the largest party, and the king would be obliged to ask it to form a government.

Cable Could Buy Every Pizza in America
John Solit
May 17, 2013
This week's #broaddata is an illustration of the staggering economic impact of the cable industry.
The infographic below speaks for itself, but it's worth noting that while 381,300 people are employed directly by cable programmers, operators, and suppliers, cable also accounts for another 1.7 million indirect U.S. jobs. That's enough people to fill a very large city (and eat a lot of pizza).

49th International Folklore Festival, Zagreb, 15 to 19 July 2015
th International Folklore Festival is dedicated to the folklore of the Dubrovnik-Neretva County, which includes the South Dalmatian islands, the peninsula of Pelješac and the city of Dubrovnik with its surroundings (Dubrovačko Primorje, Župa Dubrovačka, Konavle), as well as the area along the Neretva River bordering with Herzegovina. The folk dance and musical heritage is marked by relationships with the wider Mediterranean and Central European cultural circles, through which cultural events of different origin and age entered this area and, while changing over time, maintained their presence to this day.
The dance heritage primarily includes chain dances, that is, dances with swords (Korčulan dances kumpanija and moreška, White Masks from Pelješac, the Pokladari circle dance from Lastovo). Related dances will be displayed by the ensembles from Germany, Portugal, Malta and the United Kingdom.
Linđo, the most famous dance of the selected area, has preserved traces of Spanish influence, which will be evident from the performances of the ensemble from Spain. Versions of Linđo will be displayed by the folklore groups from Dubrovačko Primorje, Župa Dubrovačka and Konavle.
Urban culture is manifested through contra dances from Dubrovnik and its rural surroundings, as well as the newer dances of civil origin known throughout the area; these are typically folklorized in rural communities or adapted to rural style of dancing (folk ensembles from the Island of Mljet, Župa Dubrovačka, Dubrovačko Primorje (Orašac, Smokovljani - Visočani) and Metković. The further inland shows influences of the Dinaric (Herzegovinian) areas, its folk repertoire being similar to but stylistically different from the one in the mentioned territories.
The vocal interpretation emphasizes the tradition of singing koleda / kolenda, klapa singing is also popular, while ballads as a general Mediterranean tradition have been preserved in the form of solo female singing. Known and cherished is also the tradition of rhetoric, especially wedding toast, as well as the gusle tradition. Older customs of secular and religious traditions (Carnival, Passion) have also been preserved.
An instrument that stands out is lijerica, especially as an accompaniment to dance. It is also among the features that connect the selected area with other cultural areas, on the Mediterranean and further (Greece, Macedonia, Bulgaria, Portugal). Along with musicians from these countries, the Festival will also include performances from participants of long-time organized lijerica courses in the Dubrovnik-Neretva county, both adults and children.
In addition to numerous folk ensembles, church choirs who cherish the traditional religious ways of singing and take pride in their distinctive repertoire are also active, especially those performing Marian songs. The concert of popular church music will introduce the church choir from the area of the Neretva river. The concert of klapa singing will demonstrate the diversity of the genre in the selected county, while the participants of the Croatian Musical Youth's summer camp from Grožnjan will perform on the first day of the Festival at the concert "Ethno on the Road in Croatia". Aside from stage performances, dance and music workshops with national and international coordinators will also take place.
This Festival will also feature folk ensembles from other Croatian regions and foreign countries. In cooperation with the Ethnographic Museum Zagreb, an exhibition and lectures on music and wedding heritage will be held.
49th International Folklore Festival will feature performances by twenty folklore ensembles and vocal groups from Croatia, dozens of folk ensembles from abroad and several solo musicians and singers. The program will run on the normal scheme, from Wednesday to Sunday, on two open-air stages and indoors. The festive event of the Festival will introduce the most prominent content and participants from the Dubrovnik-Neretva county, as well as foreign ensembles with a repertoire of related traditions.
Artistic Director of the International Folklore Festival, Zorica Vitez, PhD.
The International Folklore Festival is one of the top events of folklore expressions in Croatia, namely an event representing amateur folklore groups dedicated to preserving and presenting local heritage. The event has been taking place in Zagreb since 1966, continuing the tradition of the Festival of Croatian Village Culture that was organized in the 1930s. The International Folklore Festival aims to present and promote traditional values of all nations and cultures, contributing to the efforts of preserving cultural diversities in the globalized world.
The program is drawn up by experts, ethnologists and folklorists who also collaborate with the Ministry of Culture on recognizing and documenting intangible cultural heritage phenomena. Ethnologists and folklorists are in constant contact with contemporary life of the phenomena and their bearers, trying to safeguard Croatian traditional culture as heritage.

WASHINGTON, March 10 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Today RetireSafe, representing 400,000 senior citizen supporters across America, urged seniors nationwide to call on Congress to save high-quality physician hospitals from the restrictive health care reform language now pending in Congress. House and Senate "reform" efforts would ration high-quality physician hospital care to Medicare patients, as a "cost savings."
"The health care reform bill now being considered would deny Medicare beneficiaries access to the best in hospital care and the best prices by limiting the operation and growth of physician hospitals," charged RetireSafe President Thair Phillips. "For seniors seeking the finest in orthopedic or cardiac care, physician hospitals are an obvious first choice. Precious Medicare dollars can be saved by expanding the use of physician hospitals." He went on to urge every senior to call Congress.
"We need more of these outstanding facilities to serve the growing millions of older Americans on Medicare," Phillips emphasized. "Health care reform as now written would deny our seniors access to new physician hospitals, and put the ones we now have out of business. If this misguided legislation is ever enacted, the limitation language on physician hospitals must be changed before Medicare patients suffer needlessly."

Ability to paste an IP Address into the client search window
I would like Symantec to change the formating requiments for an IP address in the search window. Most everyone who uses that are "IT professionals" and know how to type in an IP address correctly. Plus SEP can check the input once it's transmitted. I look up a couple dozen machines daily, and it's a real pain to have to "manually" type in the IP address, especially when it's on the clipboard and could be pasted with a single stroke! .. Thanks :-)

SEP antivirus or Altiris management? What product is this about?
Mike Clemson, Senior Systems Engineer, ASC
Intuitive Technology Group -- Symantec Platinum Partner
You can paste in the search in the SEP Manager. It just isn't real obvious. Another reason I don't like JAVA, but it's probably just the developers that don't add basic Windows features into their apps. At any rate, try this: If you can't get a response from a right mouse click, try the standard keyboard shortcuts - Shift+Insert key, and if that doesn't work, try Ctrl+V.

The group took blood samples from 20 moms and their children, aged one through four. They were looking for fire retardants known as PBDEs n the study participants.
They found that children typically had levels three times higher than than adults.
