Court throws out fraudster's appeal
Relevant offers
Notorious fraudster and conman Loizos Michaels has had his appeal against conviction dismissed.
Cypriot-born Michaels' schemes, including duping All Black legend Jonah Lomu and extracting hundreds of thousands of dollars out of National Party president Peter Goodfellow, saw him convicted and sentenced to eight years in prison in 2012.
Michaels had gone to the Court of Appeal seeking to have his conviction for more than $3 million of fraud overturned, or the length of his sentence reduced, especially a three-year and nine-month minimum non-parole period.
Justices Rhys Harrison, Ronald Young and Simon France characterised Michaels' schemes as an "elaborate hoax" and a "sustained, ever-developing, con".
At his trial in the Auckland District Court, Michaels had relied on wild claims of a giant conspiracy for his defence, the Court of Appeal noted. It said this was a difficult line to pursue.
"It was on its face an unlikely explanation which needed buttressing by allegations of a grand scale conspiracy by the Serious Fraud Office in which not only its officers, but a large pool of witnesses were complicit," the judgment said.
Michaels claimed his lawyer, Peter Kaye, was riven by conflicts and had provided him an inadequate defence.
To support this claim Michaels submitted that Kaye's daughter, Nikki Kaye, was a National Party MP and this created a conflict given Goodfellow was a witness for the Crown. The Court of Appeal rejected this argument, along with others claiming Kaye failed to call witnesses and was insufficiently prepared.
The Court of Appeal also rejected claims the sentence was excessive. "The sustained level of creative endeavour marks this case out and also suggests Michaels presents a significant ongoing risk. He is plainly capable of fooling people and exhibits no remorse," the judgment said.

Christmas Morning Skillet Apple Pancake
There is no meal I like to plan more than breakfast. On an average day, I start thinking about our morning dish right after I settle into my sheets. Therefore, Christmas breakfast is like a full-out orgasm of thought for me. As you already know, I don't turn down an opportunity to make pancakes. However, on Christmas morning, I so don't want to stand at a griddle flipping the things all morning. I'd rather be testing out Scarlett's new toys with her. I'm already looking forward to having a full-on dance party once she gets the disco port that lights up to the beat of her music. So I rely on little goodies like this skillet pancake to provide the same breakfast coma without all the effort.
Using pantry staples whizzed up in a blender, you really can't go wrong with this recipe. You can also freestyle this dish and top it with your favorite fruit. Scarlett is a big fan of Gala apples so it's how we like to finish our caker. I think I'll even cook up some of the blueberry maple breakfast sausage I get from Whole Foods. Obviously, we'll have some great tunes playing while I cook everything up.

Joint Scheduling and Rate Control for Self-Configuring Ad-Hoc CDMA Networks Jennifer Price and Tara Javidi Department of Electrical Engineering University of Washington Seattle, WA 98195 email@example.com, firstname.lastname@example.com Abstract The proliferation of wireless technology and the increasing demand for wireless data services have led to a re-examination of wireless network design, particularly with respect to optimal resource allocation. In a wireless ad-hoc environment, the lack of infrastructure, the need to perform resource allocation in a distributed fash- ion, and the time-varying nature of the network makes proposing an optimal design a difficult task. In this paper, we examine ad-hoc wireless networks in the context of variable-rate TCDMA (time and code division multiple access). We formulate this as a joint time-slot/rate assignment optimization problem, and present a sim- ple algorithm that, while not producing an optimal result, is guaranteed to produce a feasible time-slot/rate assignment. This algorithm results in a self-configurable system with fault recovery capability. 1 Introduction The proliferation of wireless technology has led to an increased interest in the design of wireless ad-hoc networks. Such networks are characterized not only by the nature of the medium, but by the lack of infrastructure available for centralized computation. Mo- biles must therefore use locally available information in order to self-configure a feasible network structure while trying to maximize the network throughput. However, practical issues regarding both the self-configurability of such networks, and the physical reality of the mobile radios, remain. For example, without the existence of software radios or multiple radio units, a node cannot receive and transmit simultaneously. This is the philosophy behind uplink/downlink division in a CDMA cellular system. In an ad-hoc environment with a flat architecture, however, such a time division becomes non-trivial. We thus choose to examine ad-hoc networks in the context of TCDMA (time and code division multiple access) [7], in which CDMA is used as a multiple access scheme within individual time-slots. This is similar to the work done in [5] and [7]. However, the lack of scheduling requirements and the notion of wireless connections as links with variable capacity (using a general notion of information-theoretic capacity) in [5] leaves practical implementation unaddressed. The authors in [7] assume a fixed slot assignment scheme, but leave the construction of such a scheme unaddressed. Additionally, the authors in [7] focus on minimizing the transmit power of the mobiles, while we choose to maximize the transmission capacity of the network. One of the biggest concerns in ad-hoc networks is connectivity - every node should be able to reach every other node through some routing scheme. Maintaining connec- tivity becomes even harder when considering wireless networks, and in particular mobile wireless networks. Several works (see [9], [11], [16], [19]) have examined the conditions required for connectivity in terms of topological distribution, transmission power, and the number of direct neighbors. Understanding the assumptions and conclusions of these papers will be important in designing an appropriate network scheme. Additionally, there is a large body of work on computing the capacity of ad-hoc networks ([3], [10], [17], [20], [21], [22]). Although these results are not extended to distributed systems, they are useful as an analytic tool for comparing the performance of our algorithm. It is important to note that the notion of capacity can be dependent upon the context in which it is examined. While [10], [20], and [22] define capacity in terms of the amount of information transmitted from source to destination, we choose to examine MAC-layer capacity, similar to [3]. In other words, we examine the transmission rate of each node without distinguishing between source and forwarded traffic. This scenario is especially applicable for networks where the majority of traffic at each node is intended for the node's nearest neighbors, e.g. smart home networking. The remainder of this paper is organized as follows. Section 2 introduces the sys- tem model and some basic notation. Section 3 defines the feasible region of rate/slot assignments, and introduces the joint optimization problem. Section 4 presents a simple distributed algorithm that ensures feasibility but does not necessarily guarantee optimal- ity. Section 5 addresses the performance of this algorithm by demonstrating convergence and stability. In addition, we show that this algorithm demonstrates both fault-recovery and self-configurability. This section also presents simulation results that demonstrate the performance of this algorithm. Finally, Section 6 provides conclusions and areas of future work. 2 CDMA Interference Model and Notation We consider the following setting: there are a total of M mobiles and T transmission slots. We assume that for each user i there exists a time slot si ∈ {1, . . . , T }, and a transmission rate ri expressed in multiples of the fixed pilot rate, Rb (i.e. ri = Rb αi ). The channel gain from mobile i to mobile j is denoted by gij . W is the chip bandwidth, and N0 is the thermal noise density. Note that 0 ≤ Rb αi ≤ W . Mobiles are assumed i to be receiving when they are not transmitting. Each mobile has a pilot power P0 , and i transmission power Pi = P0 αi . The indicator function 1 if si = t ρit = 0 else is used to identify a given user's time-slot. Definition 1. The received pilot power of node i at node j can be written as i P0 gij if i = j βij = 0 else Definition 2. The neighborhood of node i can be written as Ni = j : SN Rj (i) ≥ γ0 W P ig β where SN Rj (i) = Rb N00 W = Rbij 0 is the signal to noise ratio for user i's pilot signal ij N at node j in the absence of other transmissions. Note that γ0 should be chosen large enough so that the condition SN Rj (i) ≥ γ0 (1) not only guarantees an acceptable bit error rate for user i's pilot signal, but will also guarantee an acceptable bit error rate for user i s data stream in the presence of inter- ference. Definition 3. The rise over thermal (ROT) is defined as M Pi gij ρit Zj (t) = i=1 N0 W and indicates the ratio of the total power received at mobile j over the thermal noise during time slot t [1]. Note that Zj (t) not only depends on how many neighbors are transmitting simulta- neously, but also with what rate they are transmitting. 3 Problem Formulation Definition 4. A tuple of pilot power, time-slot and rate assignment vectors (P0 , s, α) belongs to the feasible region ∆ if and only if they satisfy the following conditions: C1. ∃j ∈ Ni such that si = sj C2. |Ni | ≥ X ∀i C3. Zj (t) ≤ K ∀j, t Condition C1 comes from the constraint that a node cannot transmit and receive at the same time. Condition C2 is believed to provide network connectivity with an appro- priate choice of the value X. This has been shown to be on the order of 6 for networks with a uniformly distributed topology [16]. Condition C3, combined with Equation 1, γ0 implies that the signal-to-interference ratio satisfies SIN Rj (i) ≥ 1+K [12]. The defini- tion of Ni attempts to keep the SN R (excluding interference) of user i's pilot signal at a neighbor about γ0 . This, along with appropriate choices K, intuitively guarantees an acceptable SIN R in the presence of interference from other users. Ultimately, we seek to maximize an appropriate objective function over the feasibility region. We assume that the objective function is of a social welfare form, i.e. it is of the form M U (Rb αi ) [2], where U (·) summarizes the value of rate increase for each i=1 mobile. Note that, since the maximum overall throughput might be achieved at the cost of specific users, the choice of U (·) represents the inherent trade-off between fairness and maximum possible throughput [15]. We focus on cases where U (Rb αi ) is monotone increasing and strictly concave. For a given utility function U (·), a tuple of pilot power, time-slot, and rate assignment vectors is optimal if it is the solution to the following problem: P. Find the pilot power, slot, and rate assignment vectors (P0 , s, α) that solve the following: M max U (Rb αi ) (P0 ,s,α)∈∆ i=1 Figure 1: Flowchart of the Time Slot and Neighbor Discovery Algorithm 4 Distributed Algorithms We formulate the problem described in Section 3 as a joint time-slot/rate assignment problem. Conceptually, this can be viewed as a generalization of the graph coloring problem where each node is assigned both a color (time-slot) and a height (rate). This interpretation admits a large body of work ([4], [8], [13], [14]). However, these works generally assume coloring is done on a graph with pre-defined links; in contrast, we propose to integrate neighbor discovery and graph coloring. Due to the complexity of finding a fully distributed solution, we propose to decompose this problem into the following alternate problems: AP1. Find a set of pilot power and slot assignment vectors (P0 , s) that satisfy Condi- tions C1 and C2. (This results in a node-colored graph). AP2. For a given vector of pilot power and slot assignments, find a vector of rate assignments (α1 , . . . , αM ) such that Condition C3 is satisfied, and that maximizes M U (Rb αi ) (2) i=1 Although this decomposition results in a generally sub-optimal solution, such a trade- off seems, at times, unavoidable to obtain a decentralized solution. 4.1 Neighbor Discovery / Time Slot Assignment Algorithm In order to find a distributed solution to AP1, we combine the tasks of neighbor dis- covery and slot-assignment. In other words, each node starts with no neighbors and a randomly chosen time-slot assignment. The algorithm is then run one node at a time. This requirement is enforced by using random access on a separate control channel as a regulating mechanism. Once a node gains access to the control channel, it implements the following algorithm, shown in Figure 1: 1. Increment the pilot power until Eqn. (1) is satisfied at another node. 2. Choose a slot assignment using the rules in Figure 2. Figure 2: Slot Assignment Rules 3. Repeat until |Ni | ≥ X. In order to execute the rules shown in Figure 2, each node has three pieces of informa- tion: its own slot assignment (si ), a list of the available slots not currently allocated to itself or its neighbors (li ), and its number of neighbors (|Ni |). The configurations on the left show initial scenarios, while the configurations on the right show the scenarios after the execution of a rule. The text on the far right indicates the conditions under which a rule may be executed. Rules 1 and 2 allow a node to choose a slot based on its neighbor's slot. The existence of an available slot is guaranteed by the use of T ≥ X + 1 slots [8]. Rule 3 ensures that any non-allowable links (established through initial configuration or system fault) are fixed. It is important to note that this algorithm requires each node to accept and reciprocate all neighbor requests, regardless of its current number of neighbors. The result is that, although each node will only choose X neighbors for itself, some nodes may end the algorithm with more than X neighbors. In addition, it should be noted that there is a distinction between the neighborhood defined in Section 2, and the interference neighborhood. In other words, it is possible that nodes not in your neighborhood could still be close enough to cause significant interference. In closely dense networks, the interference from non-neighbors could result in a rate assignment of '0' as the only feasible transmission rate assignment. However, in practical settings and with an appropriate choice of X, this scenario does not represent a critical problem. 4.2 Rate Assignment Algorithm Once neighbor discovery and slot assignment are complete, we can address the rate assignment problem as if the pilot powers and time-slots were fixed. This decouples the slot and rate assignment problems. Note that the time slotting allows the rate assignments during different time-slots to be decoupled from one another as well. The authors in [12], [18] introduce a distributed algorithm for rate control in cellular CDMA systems. Once the neighbor discovery and time-slot assignments are fixed, it is straightforward to extend this work to the ad-hoc scenario described in this paper. During a given time-slot, each receiving node acts like a base, monitoring its interference level and broadcasting a price based on that interference level. Each mobile assigned to transmit then reacts to these prices by increasing or decreasing its rate. As previously mentioned, the choice of U (·) captures the trade-off between throughput and fairness. Here, we focus on a proportional fair solution, shown to be achieved by using the utility function U (·) = log(·) [15]. The algorithms developed in [12] and [18] consist of two parts, and are applied to the ad-hoc scenario as follows: 1. Receiving mobiles broadcast a vector of signals indicating their observed level of interference for each time slot. These signals evolve according to the following difference equation: ∆µj (t) = ξ[Zj (t) − K]+ (3) where µj (t) = 0 if ρjt = 1, and ξ is a constant. 2. Transmitting mobiles use these signals to adjust their rates as follows: N αi = arg max(log(Rb α) − α pi ρit ) (4) α t=1 M where pi = j=1 µj (t)βij . 5 Algorithm Performance In this section, we examine the convergence and stability of the algorithms developed in Section 4. In addition, we examine the algorithm performance through numerical examples and simulations. 5.1 Convergence and Stability A self-stabilizing system is one in which the system is guaranteed to reach a feasible state from any initial condition after a finite number of operations [6]. This also implies that if system faults are spaced far enough apart, the system has fault-recovery ability. We show that, even when run simultaneously, the neighbor discovery/time-slot assignment and rate assignment algorithms presented in Section 4 are self-stabilizing systems. To do so, we introduce the following lemmas and theorems: Lemma 1. An equilibrium point of neighbor discovery and time-slot selection is stable and solves AP1 if Rules (1)-(3) are executed one at a time. Proof. We first introduce the following Lyapunov-type function: M T M M ϕS = [X − |Ni |]+ + [ ρit ρjt ψij ] (5) i=1 t=1 i=1 j=1 where [x]+ = 0 if x < 0 and ψij is an indicator function used to tell if i and j are neighbors. This is a non-negative function which decreases with every application of a rule from Figure 2. Rules 1 and 2 decrease the first term and do not affect the second, since they only create valid links when one of the involved nodes has less than X neighbors. Rule 3 decreases the second term, and does not affect the first term since it only fixes faulty links. The condition ϕS = 0 represents a feasible slot assignment, since it means that every node has at least X neighbors and all neighbors transmit during different slots. This also represents a stable state, since no rules can be executed when ϕS = 0. Thus we can conclude that the algorithm will converge to a stable, feasible slot assignment in a finite number of steps from any initial state. Lemma 2. Given a set of pilot power and time-slot assignment vectors, an equilibrium point of the distributed system described by Eqns (3)-(4) solves AP2. Proof. We assume that we wish to maximize the sum of the utility functions. Now, consider the Lagrangian: M L(α, µ) = log(Rb αi ) i=1 T M M αi βij ρit − µj (t) −K t=1 j=1 i=1 N0 W M T M βij ρit µj (t) = log(Rb αi ) − αi i=1 t=1 j=1 NO W MRCV + K µj j=1 The dual problem can be formulated as follows: DP. Find the Lagrangian multipliers µj (t) such that they solve M T M minµ≥0 φi (pi ) + KN0 W µj (t) i=1 t=1 j=1 M i where pi = j=1 P0 gij ρit µj (t) and φi (pi ) = maxαi (log(Rb αi ) − αi pi ) The rate assignment algorithm is derived from this dual problem. The rate assign- ment described by Eqn (4) is simply the solution to φi (pi ) for a given set of Lagrangian multipliers, µ. The price updates described by Eqn (3) are simply a gradient projec- tion method to compute the Lagrangian multipliers. The linearity of the constraint Zj (t) ≤ K combined with a strictly increasing and concave utility function implies that this algorithm will converge to the equilibrium point in a finite amount of time (see [12], [18]). Using these lemmas, we introduce the following theorem: Theorem 1. Rules (1)-(3) and Equations (3)-(4) represent a self-stabilizing system whose equilibrium point solves AP1 and AP2 if Rules (1)-(3) are executed one at a time. Proof. Rules (1)-(3) are not dependent upon the rate assignment vectors. Although Eqns (3)-(4) are dependent upon the pilot powers and slot assignments, we know that after a finite amount of time Rules (1)-(3) can no longer be executed and the slot assignments are fixed. At this point, Lemma 2 holds true. Thus, the slot and rate assignment algorithms can be run simultaneously, and will still converge to a stable equilibrium point in a finite number of steps. 2500 2500 2000 2000 Distance (m) 1500 Distance (m) 1500 1000 1000 500 500 0 0 0 500 1000 1500 2000 2500 0 500 1000 1500 2000 2500 Distance (m) Distance (m) Figure 3: Faulty Slot and Neighbor Assign- Figure 4: Final Slot and Neighbor Assign- ments for a Subset of 10 Mobiles ments for a Subset of 10 Mobiles 5.2 Simulation Results Simulations were run using a network of 50 nodes randomly distributed over a 2500m x 2500m grid. The simulations use a cost-231 propagation model at 1.9 GHz between the mobiles. The values for γ0 and K are 4dB and 10dB respectively. The chip bandwidth W is 1.2 MHz, the thermal noise density N0 is -179 dBm/Hz, and the pilot rate Rb is 4.8 Kbps. The values for X and T are 6 and 7, respectively. The initial choices for slot and rate assignments were chosen at random. The slot assignment algorithm was run on a random node at each iteration. In other words, the actual random access of the control channel was approximated by simply selecting random nodes one at a time. Figure 3 shows a faulty network configuration (i.e. some nodes are transmitting in the same slot as their neighbors, or have too few neighbors) for a 10-mobile subset of the network. Figure 4 shows the final network config- uration for the same subset after the neighbor discovery/time-slot assignment algorithm has been run. The links in which neighbors had the same slot assignment have been fixed, and all nodes have enough neighbors. The rate assignment algorithm was run for a single time-slot at each iteration. Figure 5 shows the number of infeasible links at each iteration. We can see that this function is decreasing and stabilizes at '0'. Finally, Figure 6 shows the system throughput using a strict threshold model, in which a given mobile is assumed to have perfect reception if Condition C3 is satisfied, and no reception if it is violated. 6 Conclusions The most important factor in designing self-configurable ad-hoc networks is that the algorithms must work in a distributed manner. In this paper, we establish conditions for feasible ad-hoc CDMA network configurations, and introduce a joint time-slot/rate assignment optimization problem based on those conditions. By decoupling the time- slot and rate assignment problems, we have implemented algorithms that ensure feasible allocations but do not necessarily address optimality. The slot assignment algorithm presented in this paper, while ensuring a feasible assignment, is overly conservative. Distributed node coloring algorithms are known to be inefficient; therefore, the optimality of the slot assignment algorithm could be improved by assigning multiple slots to a single user, or using auctioning mechanisms to aid in slot assignment. 4 70 x 10 2 1.8 60 Number of Infeasible Links 1.6 50 1.4 Throughput (Kbps) 40 1.2 1 30 0.8 20 0.6 0.4 10 0.2 0 0 0 100 200 300 400 500 0 100 200 300 400 500 Iterations Iterations Figure 5: Number of Infeasible Links in the Figure 6: System Throughput Using a Per- Network fect Reception Interference Threshold K In addition, the interaction of routing with these algorithms will have a significant im- pact on system performance. Evaluating this impact and exploring cross-layer techniques that incorporate routing information into the slot and rate assignment algorithms is an important area of future work. Finally, comparing the performance of these algorithms to known upper bounds on network capacity will allow for a more rigorous evaluation of the algorithm performance. The key to any future work will be to continue to implement network configuration in a distributed manner.

So bad news good news time.
Remember when the doctors thought we had TTTS (twin to twin transfer syndrome) and they put me on bedrest? Then later they decided it was just twin discordance because the condition didnt get any worse? Well when the boys were born they still didnt think that was the problem because of something complicated that I didnt understand but had to do with equal blood results. Well today they did an echo-cardiogram on Connor because he still acts kind of weak and a little floppy and sure enough it came back that the muscle tissue of his heart is too thick. So they are doing an EKG in the morning and then the cardiology team are going to meet about a plan of action and a course of treatment and then we are supposed to all meet together on Friday. So... turns out it was TTTS after all.
They put the twins in the same crib together! They even bundled them up in the same blanket together! For some reason that science can not explain some times twins will perk up and start developing a lot faster when they are put together like that so their doctors felt like the boys would benefit from this treatment. I took some pictures and later tonight I will post them, cutest thing ever, totally reminds me of that wonderful ultrasound of them!
The boys have this nurse during the day that is really supportive of me trying to nurse the boys and has been really great at helping me get them both on to attempt tandem nursing. They still show NO desire to suck, from me or a bottle or anything, but they do latch on. Progress is progress and I am thankful for it.
Today was a very emotional day for me. Last night one of their doctors came over and had a long talk with me. He talked really sweet and yet at the same time very to the point about how exhausted I looked. He explained how it might be a good idea for me to go home and be with my other kids for a while and take a little break. We talked about how I needed to go home and do all the things I would be doing if I was still pregnant, getting things ready for the boys, spending extra time getting the older kids ready for the twins coming home and getting rest. We talked about a lot of other things as well and ultimately dh and I agreed that spending 2 days home and then 1 day at the hospital with the twins and then repeat that cycle would be best for everyone... I understand the logic behind all of that... but it still breaks my heart.
When I was trying to nurse the boys yesterday Seamus spat up on me and I leaked milk all over the place... I have refused to wash that shirt and keep it put up and take it down every so often.. it smells like new baby... Yeah... I have cried waaay too much today. Cant make up my mind if this is all normal response to a really rough and emotional situation or if I might be slipping into PPD. I just want my boys home so bad.

"I ordered these invitations for our company's cocktail party in red/black, our company colors. The quality of the paper was impressive, and the design simple, yet elegant. This is the second time I have ordered from Tiny Prints, and will do so again in the future!"
"This is a great card that plays on your face being posted on the cover of a magazine. I paired it with a professional studio photo that I took and it looks like the cover of Esquire Magazine or Vogue. I paired it with silver envelopes. Very classy and fun!"
"I ordered these invites for my dad's 60th birthday party and they are perfect. Very classy with a clean, simple, yet sophisticated design. All of the information is easy to see and they are beautifully different than any other invites I have ever sent out."
"This is a very nice invitation, great quality paper and beautiful design. Very satisfied every time I order from Tiny Prints, Thanks!"
"We ordered this card for our Thanksgiving party & EVERYONE raved about it! Very stylish & not your traditional holiday invite. Paper quality & color was great! My ONLY complaint is that it took extra postage due to the odd size. Truly a great card!"

NYT Profiles MINI_Motion Designer Yves Behar
The New York Times has an article on Yves Behar, the man behind much of the design of the MINI_Motion collection. It goes into detail on Behar's ideas on "brand fusion" and how it translates to his work for clients. Here's an excerpt:
Behar sees designers as collaborators with their clients in shaping a consumer's experience of a product, rather than just the product itself. He rails against what he calls ''feature creep,'' the gratuitous stuffing of more and more technology into products without making them any easier to use. ''Tactility — how we use and carry products — makes them more appealing,'' he declares.
This approach has pleased fuseproject's clients, like Birkenstock, MINI (a part of BMW) and Toshiba, and has earned it an exhibition that will open this month at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. (Behar designed the Learning Shoe, complete with a chip that collects data on the wearer's feet, just for the exhibition.)
Joseph Rosa, the museum's curator of architecture and design, calls Behar's approach ''brand fusion,'' and says, ''It's not just about designing something and then leaving the company to market it.'' Or, as Behar puts it: ''The time of the designer as master is over. Now, the designer is a partner — with a point of view.''
Behar's point of view developed after he graduated from Art Center College of Design in 1992 and spent several years working for well-known Silicon Valley firms like Lunar Design and frog design. He set up shop on his own in 1999 in South Park, the San Francisco neighborhood that Behar calls ''the ground zero of the dot-com boom and bust.'' ''I spent a couple of pretty miserable years trying to persuade clients of the importance of physical experience in design,'' he recalls. But a few projects that received favorable press — like the cerebral bottle for spacescent (in which the flask of scent is suspended within a transparent outer container, to evoke the virtual space that fragrance creates around the wearer) — caught the attention of larger companies, like MINI and Birkenstock.
MINI called on Behar in 2001, to develop accessories around its iconic car, the Cooper, which was being reintroduced 43 years after its debut. The company wasn't looking for the usual logo-based key rings and the like, normally sold by car dealers to people who already own the car. Instead, MINI envisioned that its accessories line, called MINI–motion, would appeal to people who might not own a MINI but wanted to experience what the brand was about.
So rather than reinforce the stereotype of accessory as status symbol, Behar focused on the transition between being inside and outside the car: every accessory would have a dual function. For example, there's a shoe that has a detachable inner slipper for driving; a watch that reads either vertically or horizontally, depending on the position of your arm; and a jacket that has a built-in seat.

A few words for a great music (creator?), I hate Dubstep. But this... This is fucking awesome. Even before I heard the piano I thought this deserved a 5 star ratin'. And then after I heard the piano, I thought that this deserved a seven-star rating. So as the guy auron66 said, you should create an album if I'm not an idiot and you already have. Then somebody should call me an idiot and tell me how to obtain it. Okay? Okay.

I just posted this on my FB so hopefully you'll get more stars up, and downloads, also, this is a very well made song, have you ever thought of putting an album out?

In Rightbloggers' Fantasy Baseball, Obama Throws Treasonous Gay Pitch
At the All-Star Game, President Obama threw out the first pitch. Here's the video, which rightwingers say shows Obama getting booed; it sounds like a mix of cheers and booing to us, but you can judge for yourself -- that's what citizen journalism is all about.
While the New York Post uncharacteristically reported that that Obama "hung one over the plate," rightbloggers let the world know that the President's pitch was treasonous and homosexual:
"Throws a sissy pitch," says Gateway Pundit.
"What was up with FOX Sports not showing the full pitch?" asked Scared Monkeys. "Were they told by Barry's handlers not to just in case he bounced the ball to home plate because it would have been spread like wildfire on the internet?" That Fox -- always covering for Obama! Oh wait, Scared Monkeys has an update, quotes an expert: "Where did it land? Was it a strike or wasn't it? Why didn't the network choose a better camera to shoot from?" Sigh, more long lonely nights in the lab for this cowboy, as soon as he can kill a black guy and detach his arm for the experiments.
Pundit & Pundette also find Fox covering for Obama ("Very, very unusual camera work there") but most rightbloggers just say he's a fag. "Barack Obama Throws Like He's Got a Raging Case of The Gaybees," says Weasel Zippers. "Obama's Girly Man Pitch," says Macsmind, who also calls him a "Queen."
In their fantasy baseball league, Joe McCarthy throws out every first pitch and Jackie Robinson never makes it to the majors.

The quality of the quilt is good, however the colors in the pic are a lot brighter than what we received. The colors look a bit faded on the actual product, hence the 4 stars. But it is still a really cute bedding set for a little girl.

KDE in Google's Summer of Code 2006
KDE is again participating in Google's Summer of Code. We did this last year and got 24 exciting projects running. They had all kinds of results, from widely successfull over interesting concept to mild failure. I mentored three projects and it certainly was a great and enjoyable experience, so I will be a mentor again this year.
There already is a list of ideas for KDE projects in Google's Summer of Code 2006. It includes lots of interesting stuff. There are general ideas like implementing new concepts for rendering windows on the desktop, web services development tools or innovative ways of providing online help for applications.

Kanye West, Maroon 5 To Perform on THE VICTORIA'S SECRET FASHION SHOW
GRAMMY® Award-winning artists Kanye West and Maroon 5 will perform on THE VICTORIA'S SECRET FASHION SHOW, to be broadcast Tuesday, Nov. 29 (10:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Supermodels Adriana Lima, Alessandra Ambrosio, Miranda Kerr, Doutzen Kroes, Erin Heatherton, Candice Swanepoel, Lily Aldridge, Lindsay Ellingson, and a bevy of other Victoria's Secret Angels will star in this lingerie runway show, which will also include red carpet interviews, model profiles and a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the world's most celebrated fashion show. The runway looks will include over-the-top lingerie embellished with SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS, iconic Angel wings and the much-anticipated Fantasy Bra.
Kanye West is a musician, producer, artist, author and designer. He has sold over 16 million albums and over 40 million digital tracks worldwide. Over the course of his career, he has had five consecutive #1 albums and seven #1 singles, along with scores of radio hits. West has garnered 36 GRAMMY Award nominations and has won 14 GRAMMY Awards, along with numerous other awards and accolades.
Capturing their first of three GRAMMY Awards as "Best New Artist" of 2005 and going on to sell more than 15 million albums worldwide, Maroon 5 won over fans and critics alike with their hybrid rock/R&B sound. In 2010, the band released their third studio album "Hands All Over," which spawned the GRAMMY nominated single "Misery." The nod marked the group's seventh nomination overall and 4th in that category. Most recently Maroon 5's smash hit "Moves Like Jagger" climbed to the #1 spot on the Top 40 and Hot AC charts and also claimed the #1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100. With the single's success on the Hot 100 chart, Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine became the first artist in the chart's 53-year history to reach #1 as part of a group and enter the Top 10 at the same time as a soloist, as he is also featured on Gym Class Heroes' "Stereo Heart." Maroon 5's releases have gone gold and platinum in over 35 countries around the world, including Hands All Over, which was certified gold by the RIAA in December 2010. In addition, frontman Adam Levine joined the lineup of celebrity coaches on "The Voice".
These performances will mark the artists' first appearance on THE VICTORIA'S SECRET FASHION SHOW.
THE VICTORIA'S SECRET FASHION SHOW is being produced by Done and Dusted, Inc. Edward G. Razek, Monica Mitro, Ian Stewart and Hamish Hamilton are the executive producers. Hamish Hamilton is the director.

Sharia Law Today: Hundreds Of Women Stuck At Saudi Airport
As those on the political left whine about a ginned up "war on women", just remember that these same lefties always fail to condemn those who practice and push for Sharia Law
(Times Online) More than 1,000 Nigerian women pilgrims remained stranded at a Saudi airport for a fifth straight day Thursday after being denied entry into the kingdom because they were not accompanied by men, an airport official confirmed.
Speaking on condition of anonymity, the official said the women have been denied entry because "they are not accompanied by a mahram (the statutory male companion)," adding that talks were continuing between Saudi and Nigerian officials.
That's the kind of treatment women can expect under Sharia Law. Liberal deflection and rationalizing in 3….2….1….
