What is the purpose of the ESG'
LTG Mixon: The executive steering group's principle purpose is the coming together with the Indian military to share ideas and also to chart the way ahead for future training exchanges and training exercises.
LTG Sekhon:
We've got the policy group at the executive level of the defense secretaries which formulates the general direction in which this U.S. cooperation is to move. The ESG's purpose is to put those things on the ground, in practical terms as for the Army to Army cooperations.
Why is your relationship with the U.S. Army important'
LTG Sekhon: I think it's very important because there are such similarities between the two of us. The reality of life is that the U.S. is a very important country. It's a major global player, a leader of sorts, and we have commonalities with the U.S. in terms of a democratic way of life, we are both secular, and I think a more or less common way of life. The way that we look at the world affairs, international affairs and all. We think that in years to come, it is very, very natural for the two of us to cooperate with each other and help each other to sort things out wherever it is possible.
What is the objective of this year's India ESG'
LTG Mixon: The personal objective is, as the general said, to chart the way ahead. This is how we do exercises and exchanges over the next two years with the Indian military, but also, it also gives us a great opportunity to share ideas. Our discussions today were focused on counter-insurgency operations. We've learned a great deal from the operations that the Indian military has done and shared a few of the ideas and things that we've learned recently from our deployments too.
What importance do you place on this year's Executive Steering Group'
LTG Sekhon: There is great importance because this is one forum where we take stock of what has already been done and the way out and lay out the roadmap for the future year, for the coming year and years to come. It is essential for us to take a stock of things because of certain things which have been done in total and certain shortfalls which can be improved in the years to come. As we are graduating from a very low level of cooperation and exercising to higher levels, unit level and formation level and above, there is a need for a forum to consolidate things and the roadmap, and that is the primary focus of this ESG We have recently done a brigade level command post training and we are looking as to how it can be taken forward.
What is the expected result from the ESG'
LTG Mixon: The expected result will be the formulation of the plan that will cover by the next two years and beyond our exchanges, but really when you look at it from a strategic perspective, the real resolve to it is a greater understanding of a region. India is a major player in the world and in the Pacific region and they are an example for many other countries as to how a democracy can operate in a multi-cultural environment. Relationships that we establish are vitally important to the security of the region, so really it covers a broader expanse than just the exercises, it's about building relationships, and the relationship that the American Army has with the Indian Army is one of the most valuable relationships we have in the region.
What types of training do your military forces look forward to when they're training with the U.S. forces'
LTG Sekhon: We are conducting all kinds of training, to start with, a focus on the war on terror. We are also facing similar problems from our side, so we have a lot to learn from each other with training. We have been jointly training with counter-insurgence missions, Special Operations, as well as conducting exercises with the Marine Force. The focus so far has been on the counter-insurgency and counter- terror. In years to come we would like to expand the scope to training under a U.N. mandate, peacekeeping, counter-hijack, hostages rescue, amphibious operations. Today, we heard the Americans giving of their experiences in Iraq, I think that we have a lot to learn from in terms of technology, education and networking, so I think there's a lot of scope for us to train on.
Why is our relationship with India important'
LTG Mixon: As I just mentioned, India is a significant global power as well as a regional power. The security within the Asia-Pacific region really has been dramatically influenced by India and its activities in the region. That is really foremost in our thoughts. As the general mentioned, we can certainly see that in the future, UN-types of missions with disaster relief and peacekeeping in the Pacific or anywhere in the world is certainly very important to our relationship.
Have the recent terrorist attacks in Mumbai changed your military strategy'
LTG Sekhon: We are still figuring out how to deal with that, because each terrorist is different from the last one, so it would be premature for me to say that we have changed strategy. We are still trying to figure out the respond to that imperious options...'... table...'... out of the street. We will be thinking about how best we can respond to something like that.
Did the recent terrorist attacks in Mumbai have an impact on our relationship with India'
LTG Mixon: From the perspective, the fact that we were also victims of the terrorist attack of 9-11.We've seen terrorist attacks in other countries, Great Britain, Spain, and the impact it has on us is the absolute understanding that terrorism can be exported world-wide. We work with our allies and partners in the region to try to prevent these types of terrorist attacks. Working together is one of the better ways that we can battle against these terrorists. It has certainly heightened awareness and underscored the importance of our relationship with India.
How do you see your relationship with the U.S. military unfolding in the future'
LTG Sekhon: It's going to become more ...'... it's going to become stronger and stronger. That's the only direction it will go to. I'm sure it is in the years to come that we will come much closer and Army to Army we'll have greater cooperation. We will get it to a stage where we can jointly mandate. That's the end result which we look forward to I'm sure.

The new Egypt – guided by relatively moderate Islamists of the Muslim Brotherhood – is seeking a unity among Palestinian factions as a way to advance peace talks with Israel. The next question will be whether Israel and the United States welcome or spurn this initiative, writes ex-CIA analyst Paul R. Pillar.
Hunt for the Historical Jesus
For years there has been a debate over not only who Jesus was but whether he existed. Historians remain split on many Jesus-related questions – and the issue is fraught with religious overtones – but Rev. Howard Bess believes enough is now known about Jesus to put him in context for his (and our) times.
The Sarah Palin/Neocon Alliance
Exclusive: "Game Change," the HBO movie on John McCain's choice of Sarah Palin, faults his Republican campaign for its slipshod vetting of the little-known Alaska governor, but leaves out the back story of big-time neocons from D.C. helping position Palin for her surprise rise and Palin manipulating everyone, writes Morgan Strong.
McGovern Protests Brennan's Speech
After learning that U.S. national security official John Brennan would address Jesuit-run Fordham's graduating class, ex-CIA analyst (and Fordham alum) Ray McGovern protested in a letter to the Fordham Ram. McGovern cited Jesuit principles of truth and justice — and Brennan's role in the "dark side" of the "war on terror."
Kony's Deleted Christian Fanaticism
Joseph Kony, the brutal commander of the Lord's Resistance Army, has been introduced to millions through a video on YouTube. But that denunciation of his war crimes skirts his claim to be motivated by Christianity, an omission not applied to violent extremists who embrace Islam, notes Mamoon Alabbasi.
'War on Women' Breaches Global Norms
Republican bills taking aim at women's reproductive freedoms have raised alarms about a "war on women," a development that is shaking up the American political scene. But some of the legislation also is putting the U.S. outside the bounds of international norms, as Nat Parry reports.
Banks Are Called on to Repent
America's banks remain under fire, including a public resignation by a Goldman Sachs executive disgusted by the firm's abuse of its clients. New protests also include calls by some Christian churches for the banks to repent for their roles in the nation's foreclosure crisis, Michael Winship reports.
Losing Faith in a Democratic Israel
Since its founding in 1948 as a refuge for Holocaust survivors and other Jews, Israel has called itself a democracy but has restricted rights of Arabs inside Israel and under Israeli military occupation. This tension – and the rise of Jewish fundamentalism – are now eroding support among liberal Zionists, writes Lawrence Davidson.
Israel's Tragedy of 'Victories'
Exclusive: For decades, Israel and its Arab neighbors fought wars rather than make the difficult compromises that peace would require. However, over the past decade, Israel's security perimeter has expanded, now reaching nearly 1,000 miles to Iran and entangling the United States in widening conflicts, warns Morgan Strong.
On American 'Exceptionalism'
American politicians forever talk about the nation's "exceptionalism," a special greatness that sets the U.S.A. apart from all others. But this jingoism requires whitewashing much of U.S. history and ignoring much of the present, too, says Lawrence Davidson.

Trustees responsible for liquidating bankrupt broker-dealer MF Global asked a judge to dismiss a lawsuit over the firm's purportedly improper firing of employees.
The workers claim that MF Global violated the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) Act by firing 1,066 workers without giving them 60 days' advance written notice. Several of the disgruntled employees sued the brokerage in November 2011, seeking 60 days of wages and benefits.

Bob Woodward Learns the Perils of Facebook
Sometime Sunday night, City Desk noticed that the photos section of Bob Woodward's Facebook profile was displaying three cartoons by conservative political-cartoonist Dana Summers. All three toons were a satirical look at President-elect Barack Obama's relationship with the media. In one, a cop commands a gaggle of spectators fawning over Obama to "Stop throwing your underwear at him and make way for the media." "We are the media," comes the punchline.
Though the journalist who helped take down Nixon has, at points, been accused of pandering to President Bush, such uneven sentiments about Obama and the media seemed out of place.
We were right to be suspicious. Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that Woodward hadn't posted the drawings, instead, one of his 2,886 Facebook friends– a conservative named Michelle Jennifer R. Santos– tagged the cartoons with the reporter's name ("...for debate purposes," she explains), a move that effectively presented the political propaganda alongside pics (a head shot and a candid) available on Woodward's page. The preeminent Postie confirms this in an email. " I did not post [the cartoons]. Apparently someone has tagged them for me and others."
A while after Woodward's email arrived the cartoons were gone, leaving us to conclude that the journalist had figured out what every person who has ever had a badly-lit, drunken, half-naked photo of him or herself uploaded to the social networking site by a supposed friend has. You can un-tag.
In any event, the ink-slinger isn't sweating it. Just another example of an Internet world that offers less privacy and less control over your life, he writes, "But no big deal."

ZDNet's Mary Jo Foley has apparently learned that Microsoft's online alternative to Google Docs will emerge from beta before the end of this year. Office Live Workspace is a service that is geared to work as either a standalone product, or in tandem with Office 2003-2007. It has been suggested that the current public beta is fairly close to the final version, and the primary issue outstanding is language support. Microsoft wishes to expand the 11 languages it currently supports to 37 before it officially lifts the beta tag later this year. Spokesmen Kirk Gregersen from Microsoft has also reportedly commented on the surprising trends they have identified during the public beta. It was originally assumed that casual users such as students would use Live Workspace as a means to author and remotely access documents. Instead, the service is being used mostly as a single access point for collaborative efforts involving multiple users. Insiders have suggested that this only further demonstrates why desktop versions of Microsoft Office won't be leaving us anytime soon.
For those who haven't been following the development of Office Live Workspace, here is a rundown on the new features.
Note – This is the word processor component that most directly compares to Google Docs. It is just as full featured as the Google alternative, but suffers from an annoying lack of a save locally feature. If you wish to save copies of your "notes" for use offline, you will need to copy and paste them manually.
List – This is the spreadsheet component that represents a very stripped down version of Excel. Microsoft apparently knows that outside of business, its advanced spreadsheet features are often bypassed making it little more than a glorified list maker. The interface has been cleaned up to allow for better control over the making and sharing of lists. Once completed, you will have the option to export these as Excel spreadsheets.
Event List – This allows you to create an individual, or shared lists of events. Event lists can be exported to Outlook or Excel. Any entries manipulated in Outlook remain synced with the version on the web.
Task List – This feature is similar to list, but is better optimized to represent task's. It gives a preformatted layout for the task name, due date, and priority. The task's can be exported to Outlook or Excel.
Contact List – The contact list allows you to create a central location for your contacts which can easily be shared with others. Contacts stored here can be pushed into Outlook or Excel.
The current web interface is easy to use and its tight integration with the Office desktop applications gives it a pretty compelling advantage over Google Docs. It an excellent alternative for those of us who aren't yet comfortable with authoring exclusively in the cloud but still want the benefits of remote and shared access. For people who use office on the go, this is service is defiantly worth checking out.

New Woods Hole Center for Oceans and Human Health established
Scientists from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI), Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have joined together to form the Woods Hole Center for Oceans and Human Health (COHH). The new Center, with administrative offices at WHOI, will serve as a focal point for research on issues at the intersection of oceanographic, biological and environmental health sciences, such as harmful algal blooms and organisms in coastal waters and estuaries that cause human illness and death.
This new Woods Hole Center and three others being established around the country are the first in a new collaboration between the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), one of the National Institutes of Health, and the National Science Foundation (NSF). The four joint Centers for Oceans and Human Health (COHH) will be located at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts, the University of Miami, the University of Hawaii, and the University of Washington. More than twenty proposals were submitted from around the country for similar centers, with four selected for funding. The federal agencies expect to invest a combined total of $5 million annually for the next five years to support the four centers. The centers are expected to sponsor research by a large number of investigators, students and scholars in the next five years.
The mission of the Woods Hole COHH is to improve public health through understanding how oceanic processes affect the distribution and persistence of human pathogens or products of toxin-producing organisms. The major research focus of COHH projects will be the distribution of biological organisms like bacteria and algae with potential human health consequences in the temperate coastal ocean, including bays, harbors and estuaries.
The two federal agencies are providing about $6.25 million in support to establish the Woods Hole COHH and fund four research projects for five years. Dr. John Stegeman, a Senior Scientist and Chair of the WHOI Biology Department, will serve as Director of the Woods Hole COHH. Dr. Dennis McGillicuddy, an Associate Scientist in the Applied Ocean Physics and Engineering Department at WHOI, will serve as Deputy Director. Dr. Mitchell Sogin, a Senior Scientist and Director of the Josephine Bay Paul Center for Comparative Molecular Biology and Evolution at the Marine Biological Laboratory, will direct the Genomics Facility Core of COHH, housed in the MBL's W. M. Keck Ecological and Evolutionary Genetics Facility. MIT Professor Martin Polz, who develops molecular approaches to understanding marine and aquatic ecosystems, will coordinate MIT research for the new center.
Stegeman says COHH is a multi-institutional consortium that will address specific issues related to the distribution of biological agents with potential human health consequences, such as harmful algal blooms (commonly called "red tides"), in the temperate coastal ocean. Many of the major urban areas of North America lie in or border the coastal zone, where an estimated 9 billion gallons of domestic sewage and industrial wastewater enter the coastal ocean each day. Contamination of coastal waters with human pathogens from this waste and the distribution and persistence of these pathogens is a serious threat to public health.
The first two research projects to be funded as part of the Center involve studies of harmful algal blooms or red tide populations in the Gulf of Maine, and how coastal currents and biological processes affect that population. The third project will focus on coastal ecology and physical processes that may influence human health risks from infectious organisms in polluted coastal and estuarine waters of south coastal Massachusetts. The ecology and evolution of two marine pathogens, the closely related bacteria Vibrio vulnificus and V. parahaemolyticus, and modeling of various coastal ocean processes affecting the populations of these organisms is the fourth research project to be funded by the Center.
Vibro bacteria are responsible for about 95% of seafood related illnesses and deaths and may be the reason for the rise in lethal wound infections acquired during recreational use of coastal waters. The second bacterium, V. parahaemolytiicus, is believed to be the cause of outbreaks of dysentery after people eat contaminated shellfish harvested from temperate coastal waters.
Research projects will be conducted in each of the Institutions but will also take advantage of the MBL's genomics facility, which will enable COHH researchers to do high volume DNA sequencing and analysis.
COHH Director John Stegeman says a goal of the Center is to expand interaction among investigators in the Woods Hole scientific community and in Cambridge. Although WHOI, MBL and MIT have collaborated in many areas through the years, the new Center will integrate strengths at the three institutions in marine biology, genomics, and physical oceanography and modeling, and encourage new collaborations.
"The observations we make could spark a new appreciation of the risks associated with the potential human health consequences of some coastal organisms," Stegeman said. "We expect the insights generated by these research projects will influence the ways pathogens and harmful algal blooms are viewed by the public."

Crispy Salmon Succotash
For those of you who don't follow along on instagram and twitter, I spent the last few days knee deep in California dairy country. Yup, that means cheese, crema, more cheese, milk and ice cream. It was a little slice of heaven and I didn't want it to end. I think you've gathered by now that besides my uncontrollable love for avocados, I'm also obsessed with cheese. And if you're going to find the way to my heart… the quickest way is through burrata and mozzarella.
But more on that next week. After I got home last night I needed something light and easy like this Crispy Salmon Succotash. Succotash is my go-to veggie dish at this point in time, especially this one since it requires no cooking! I know that pumpkin spice lattes are supposed to be all the rage, but it's totally still summer here in Los Angeles, and I'm soaking it all in.
I tossed together some of my farmers market finds including fresh corn, cherry tomatoes, red jalapeño peppers, scallions and basil and gave it a bit of a bite with some champagne vinegar. I served it over what's left of my Copper River salmon supplies that I've been coveting all summer long. I'm devastated to think that I won't get any more until next year… but until then I'm hiding away a few pieces in the freezer to crack open when I need some succulent salmon in my life.
I'm a no-skin on the salmon kinda gal. Ya, some people might think that's weird, go ahead and judge… but that's just how I roll. I season it with kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper and sear it on both sides so it still has that nice golden crust and gives it a bit of texture. Throw the raw succotash on top and the difference in all the textures is crazy awesome.
I'll be enjoying leftovers of Crispy Salmon Succotash all weekend long. And who knows, maybe I'll even get crazy and do some BBQ'ing this weekend. This California girl is NOT quite ready for fall. Although I did just get some really amazing new boots and sweaters and I'm kinda pumped to wear them. Clearly I'm having internal weather issues.
- 4 6-ounce salmon filets, skin removed
- kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 ears of fresh corn, cut off the cob
- 1/2 pint of cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 red jalapeño, finely chopped
- 2 scallions, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup chopped basil, cut into a chiffonade
- kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
- 2 teaspoons champagne vinegar
- Season the salmon filets on both sides with salt and pepper.
- Heat a cast iron skillet over medium high heat and add the olive oil.
- Place 2 pieces of fish into the pan and sear on one side until crispy. Using a spatula, flip the salmon filets over, continue to cook until just slightly pink in the center. Remove the salmon filets and set aside to rest. Repeat this process with the remaining salmon.
- In a large bowl, combine the corn, cherry tomatoes, jalapeño, scallions, and basil. Season with salt and pepper and add more as needed. Drizzle the champagne vinegar over the top and toss to combine.
- Serve the succotash with the hot salmon.

I have a question about the recipe "Dead Guy Sauce" from ShoeboxKitchen. This recipe sounds great, but I would like to know if it can be made in advance and how long it will preserve.
From Our Friends
powered by ZergNet
I make a similar sauce (which contains fresh garlic) which keeps in the fridge for weeks without any problems!
Like Kmack says, it will keep for weeks in the fridge. We make it in advance quite often - sometimes serve it cold, but most often reheat it in a saucepan before serving.

Mariel Rodriguez-Padilla (born Maria Erlinda Lucille Sazon Termulo; August 10, 1984) is a Filipina commercial model, endorser, television host, VJ, and actress.
Early life[edit]
Rodriguez, known by the nickname "Mariel" as a child, lived and was raised by her maternal grandparents in Parañaque due to her parents' separation at her youth.[1] She studied at De La Salle Santiago Zobel School for grade school and high school and attended De La Salle University for college, where she graduated with a B.A. in organizational communication.[2]
Rodriguez has one sister and two half-siblings. Her sister, Kaye Garcia, owns the clothing line Hot Pink Lingerie. Her half-siblings, Ethan and Julia Termulo, both live in New Jersey.[citation needed]
Rodriguez started her career at the age of 15, modeling for commercials and advertisements, including Clean & Clear. In 2004, she was cast in MTV Asia's television show Rouge. Introducing herself through the webcam, she flew to Singapore for the audition and got the part. Her role in the show caught the eye of MTV Philippines executives and was made a VJ in December 2004. She left MTV in April 2006.[1]
GMA Network signed her as one of their stars. While in the network, she became one of the regular hosts of Extra Challenge.[1][3] She also appeared on the series Love to Love.
In 2005, Rodriguez moved to ABS-CBN, where she joined as a co-host of the competition series Pinoy Big Brother until 2010.[4] Later, she became well known for co-hosting the noon-time programs Wowowee (2006–10), Pilipinas Win Na Win (2010), and Happy Yipee Yehey! (2011).[5] Additionally, Rodriguez also acted in the Komiks series Varga in 2008, where she starred in the titular main role as Varga, and two installments of the Precious Hearts Romances Presents, namely Bud Brothers and Love Is Only in the Movies, in 2009 and 2010, respectively.[6][7]
In September 2011, she resigned from ABS-CBN and moved to TV5, where she continued her co-hosting stint for Willie Revillame's variety show Wil Time Bigtime from 2011 to 2013, which upon its cancellation was followed by Wowowillie, which she continued to co-host.[5][8]
In November 2015, she returned to ABS-CBN and reprised her role as co-host in Pinoy Big Brother: 737, which also serves as the reunion of Kuya's Angels together with Toni Gonzaga and Bianca Gonzalez respectively. She also appeared in 737 as a celebrity houseguest, alongside Enchong Dee and Karla Estrada.[9]
In 2015, Rodriguez was tapped as the guest host of It's Showtime along with Amy Perez. Weeks later, she confirmed their official participation on the show as main co-hosts.[10]
Personal life[edit]
Rodriguez had previously dated Filipino actor Zanjoe Marudo after Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Edition, who she decided to split up with in early 2010.[11] A few months after her split with Marudo, she admitted to dating Robin Padilla, whom she met on Wowowee when Padilla was temporarily a presenter.[12] In September 2010, Padilla confirmed his marriage to Rodriguez, which occurred at the Taj Mahal in Agra, India on August 19, 2010.[13][14]
In March 2015, Rodriguez revealed that she had suffered a miscarriage, which would have been her first child with Padilla.[15] In August 2015, Padilla announced that he and Rodriguez were expecting triplets. However, a few weeks after the announcement, a statement was released from Padilla's manager that Rodriguez had suffered a second miscarriage.[16]

Course Registration Numbers & Syllabi
How do I look up a Course Registration Number (CRN)?
A new CRN is assigned to each course by semester. You will need to enter this unique CRN whenever you register for a course. This can be done through Registration Central or directly through the Andrews course schedule.
As the CRN changes with semesters, be sure to select the semester in which you will be registering. While self-paced courses are open year-round, the CRN number does change with the Andrews academic calendar:
• Self-paced courses: check the current self-paced calendar for semester start and end dates
• Interactive online courses: check the current semester calendar start and end dates
TIP: It is helpful to filter the schedule by setting campus to 'field-based' and selecting the department or attribute (self-paced or internet, depending on the type of online course selected). The CRN number is shown to the right of the course abbreviation as the number in brackets. For example, the CRN number for RELB 101V 901 (1970) is 1970. Write the CRN numbers needed down to enter in Registration Central.
Where can I review a course syllabus?
Course syllabi can be found online in three places:
1. Through the course schedule: you can view this copy to learn more about the course before registering. The syllabus will be linked in the far right column of the row displaying course information. Always select the semester desired first. Syllabi are posted within two weeks of the start date of a course. If not found, email the instructor, using the email address provided on the course schedule.
2. On your ivue page: click on the green arrow document link to the right of the class title in the table at the foot of your ivue page for the selected semester. This is an easy place to find it once registered and ready to purchase textbooks.
3. In your course space: a copy is linked in the orientation module of your course online. Once you begin studying, it is a good idea to keep rechecking the syllabus here.
Watch the video tutorial about using the course schedule.
How do I calculate my GPA?
A minimum grade point average (GPA) may be required for admission to a graduate program, or to continue in a professional program. The University of Southern Maine shares a GPA calculator online, where you can enter the GPA hours for courses this semester and your expected grades, to view the projected GPA. This link includes tips on how to achieve your goal GPA.

"The only place success comes before work is in the dictionary."

Quotes from executives in any public forum, whether a Salon magazine interview or internal press release, need to be handled with care.
They may be hard to measure, but these areas count for some of the increasingly important skills of communications.

No one would ever accuse Captain Kirk of being professorial and aloof—or of being a media trainer. But it could be a profitable second career for him in the next sequel.
Press releases remain a large chunk of PR writing. The difficulty lies in getting journalists to read them, especially ones chock full of numbers and analysis.
In a social-media age, crises come at you fast and furious. PR pros should use Twitter to help mitigate any potential damage. Here's how.

Tranquil Ambience by Kaze-HimeWatch

A featured piece in Selection Artbook, drawn earlier in the year.
My health hasn't been great so I've only been drawing small pictures lately.
Hopefully the new year will be better.

Tranquil Ambience by Kaze-Hime shows an amazing artistic skill in little details. It is truely a breathtaking drawing. ( Featured by cinyu )
Wow, the contrast of colors in this piece is simply amazing.
oh wow! Just...I have no words. It looks very much like it was taken from an anime or once of those really old Japanese paintings done by someone with great talent.
Wow ^_^
Many get well soon wishes1
Ethereal and breathtaking.
Wow so nice^^
This is gorgeous!
Your works are stunning!!
That's so awesome!

so funky and beautiful. The magic of digital art.
this is so beautiful and awesome :3
I LOVE the details and the color!
This was my desktop for awhile.
Breathtakingly gorgeous. I'm in awe.
Wow.... this is just... amazing!
invert the colors |D
Oh my! This is simply beautiful.
Such beautiful detail *u*
I'm... speechless. This is really one of the most beautiful works of art I've seen this year. In my opinion, the contrasting color of orange, which I'm presuming is reminiscent of the color you'd find on certain kinds of koi, both gives depth of the hallway by way of the lanterns and focus in terms of the female character. 'Beautiful,' doesn't suffice to describe this. There's just so many references. You have eastern architecture, beautiful flowers, wave references, music, asian influenced art depicting fish, celestial references... Just... Ineffable. Great work, again. I look forward to seeing more works from you in the future.
so cool! x3
Very beautiful! I love how you used the orange and blue which are opposites to make the picture pop! you are a true artist! <3
Holy cow, was the background lines done manually and slowly?!
It's so beautiful and the detail is fantastic!!!
very nice
I've been into The Little Mermaid lately, and this fish-like girl in a kimono makes me think of the tale. I love it!
A wonderful piece, congratulations on the well deserved DD.
I do hope this year goes better for you
I do hope this year goes better for you
Wow...you certainly have great skills with background and symetry, Wind Princess! This is incredible!
I love the contrast between the background with the character and the lanterns. Very beautiful picture! congratulations for the DD!

Random Toons RPG Free
by: VNL Entertainment Ltd | 630
by: VNL Entertainment Ltd | 630
Expert's review
by Ana Gracia, Appszoom
Random Toons RPG Free is an Android game where Prince Purple Small Grape's kingdom is being threatened by mutants. Your task as prince is to fight back and follow the tutorial so you know what to do at all times. You can move your character by sliding your finger and then grabbing everything you need for your trip and deal with people and enemies you'll find in the way.
The problem with Random Toons is that the design and graphics are poor, the controls aren't smooth (sliding the finger is not the best way to move yourself around) and the continuous messages and requests make it kind of annoying. It could be a pretty good game if it was revised and enhanced, but for now it's not as enjoyable as it should.
VNL Entertainment Inc is the developer of Random Toons RPG Free and other games like Crazy bricks or apps like Rate my Pets. It's not their best game but it could be improved and turn into something much more entertaining and interesting.

Radiolab Live: Apocalyptical
Jad Abumrad and Robert Krulwich started something wonderful with their public radio show Radiolab a decade ago. The popular series, syndicated all over the country, explores science and the world around us. Now fans can experience the show in person at Radiolab Live: Apocalyptical. Joined onstage by British comedian Simon Amstell, Abumrad and Krulwich guide viewers through hundreds of millions of years of Earth's history, coming again and again to the end of the world. On air and onstage, Abumrad and Krulwich have a deft, easy style that instantly engages an audience. Here, they will take a new look at the extinction of the dinosaurs, positing that it happened in a much more sudden and explosiony manner than was previously thought; the death of atoms; and even a touching tale of two elderly actors stricken with Parkinson's who go out with a bang during one last performance of Samuel Beckett's bleak Endgame.
8 p.m. Jones Hall for the Performing Arts, 615 Louisiana. For information, call 832-487-7050 or visit radiolab.org. $35 to $45.

Be sure to mention that in your reply, if you haven't already done so.Below are instructions to enter UNIX shell commands. The commands are safe and do nothing but produce human-readable text output, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it's been followed without any report of ill effects. I am not asking you to trust me. If you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them.The commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then copy it.Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. Step 1 should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn't apply.Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign ("$") or a percent sign ("%").

Hi Linc,
Thank you for your detailed explanation.
It worked fine, but when I tried to post it here, the system said "You have included content in your post that is not permitted.".
So I put the result to the web. Please have a look the link below.
And I'm sorry to say that I need to go to my university to teach some classes, so I'll be back in 7 hours.

First, uninstall ESET by following these instructions. If you have a different version of the product, the procedure may be different. Back up all data before making any changes. Then continue as below.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Enter the following command in the Terminal window in the same way as before (triple-click, copy, and paste):
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don't have a login password, you'll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command may take several minutes to run, depending on how many files you have. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ("$") to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You're not going to reset a password.
Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

Thank you for your instructions. Once I got home, I'll follow the steps.
Let me ask you a question. I want to install an anti-virus software, but it seems ESET is not a good one.
Do you think the same problem occurs if I install Norton's.
Kindest regards,
Linc Davis Dec 15, 2013 5:09 PM
in response to Masaru(Japanese)1. This is a comment on what you should and should not do to protect yourself from malicious software ("malware") that circulates on the Internet. It does not apply to software, such as keystroke loggers, that may be installed deliberately by an intruder who has hands-on access to the victim's computer. That threat is in a different category, and there's no easy way to defend against it. If you have reason to suspect that you're the target of such an attack, you need expert help.If you find this comment too long or too technical, read only sections 5, 6, and 10.OS X now implements three layers of built-in protection specifically against malware, not counting runtime protections such as execute disable, sandboxing, system library randomization, and address space layout randomization that may also guard against other kinds of exploits.
2. All versions of OS X since 10.6.7 have been able to detect known Mac malware in downloaded files, and to block insecure web plugins. This feature is transparent to the user, but internally Apple calls it "XProtect." The malware recognition database is automatically checked for updates once a day; however, you shouldn't rely on it, because the attackers are always at least a day ahead of the defenders.The following caveats apply to XProtect:
As new versions of OS X are released, it's not clear whether Apple will indefinitely continue to maintain the XProtect database of older versions such as 10.6. The security of obsolete system versions may eventually be degraded. Security updates to the code of obsolete systems will stop being released at some point, and that may leave them open to other kinds of attack besides malware.Gatekeeper doesn't depend on a database of known malware. It has, however, the same limitations as XProtect, and in addition the following:
- It can be bypassed by some third-party networking software, such as BitTorrent clients and Java applets.
- It only applies to software downloaded from the network. Software installed from a CD or other media is not checked.
For the reasons given above, App Store products, and other applications recognized by Gatekeeper as signed, are safer than others, but they can't be considered absolutely safe. "Sandboxed" applications may prompt for access to private data, such as your contacts, or for access to the network. Think before granting that access. OS X security is based on user input. Never click through any request for authorization without thinking.4. Starting with OS X 10.8.3, a third layer of protection has been added: a "Malware Removal Tool" (MRT). MRT runs automatically in the background when you update the OS. It checks for, and removes, malware that may have evaded the other protections via a Java exploit (see below.) MRT also runs when you install or update the Apple-supplied Java runtime (but not the Oracle runtime.) Like XProtect, MRT is effective against known threats, but not against unknown ones. It notifies you if it finds malware, but otherwise there's no user interface to MRT.5. The built-in security features of OS X reduce the risk of malware attack, but they're not absolute protection. The first and best line of defense is always going to be your own intelligence. With the possible exception of Java exploits, all known malware circulating on the Internet that affects a fully-updated installation of OS X 10.6 or later takes the form of so-called "Trojan horses," which can only have an effect if the victim is duped into running them. The threat therefore amounts to a battle of wits between you and the malware attacker. If you're smarter than he thinks you are, you'll win.That means, in practice, that you always stay within a safe harbor of computing practices. How do you know what is safe?
- It can easily be disabled or overridden by the user.
- A malware attacker could get control of a code-signing certificate under false pretenses, or could simply ignore the consequences of distributing codesigned malware.
- An App Store developer could find a way to bypass Apple's oversight, or the oversight could fail due to human error.
- Any website that prompts you to install a "codec," "plug-in," "player," "extractor," or "certificate" that comes from that same site, or an unknown one, is unsafe.
- A web operator who tells you that you have a "virus," or that anything else is wrong with your computer, or that you have won a prize in a contest you never entered, is trying to commit a crime with you as the victim. (Some reputable websites did legitimately warn visitors who were infected with the "DNSChanger" malware. That exception to this rule no longer applies.)
- Pirated copies or "cracks" of commercial software, no matter where they come from, are unsafe.
- Software of any kind downloaded from a BitTorrent or from a Usenet binary newsgroup is unsafe.
- Software that purports to help you do something that's illegal or that infringes copyright, such as saving streamed audio or video for reuse without permission, is unsafe. All YouTube "downloaders" are outside the safe harbor, though not all are necessarily harmful.
- Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, must be downloaded directly from the developer's website. If it comes from any other source, it's unsafe. For instance, if a web page warns you that Flash is out of date, do not follow an offered link to an update. Go to the Adobe website to download it, if you need it at all.
- Even signed applications, no matter what the source, should not be trusted if they do something unexpected, such as asking for permission to access your contacts, your location, or the Internet for no obvious reason.
- "FREE WI-FI !!!" networks in public places are unsafe unless you can verify that the network is not a trap (which you probably can't.) Even then, do not download any software or transmit any private information while connected to such a network, regardless of where it seems to come from or go to.
Follow the above guidelines, and you'll be as safe from malware as you can practically be. The rest of this comment concerns what you should not do to protect yourself from malware.
7. Never install any commercial "anti-virus" or "Internet security" products for the Mac, as they all do more harm than good, if they do any good at all. Any database of known threats is always going to be out of date. Most of the danger is from unknown threats. If you need to be able to detect Windows malware in your files, use one of the free anti-virus products in the Mac App Store — nothing else.Why shouldn't you use commercial "anti-virus" products?
8. An anti-malware product from the App Store, such as "ClamXav," doesn't have these drawbacks. That doesn't mean it's entirely safe. It may report email messages that have "phishing" links in the body, or Windows malware in attachments, as infected files, and offer to delete or move them. Doing so will corrupt the Mail database. The messages should be deleted from within the Mail application.An anti-virus app is not needed, and should not be relied upon, for protection against OS X malware. It's useful only for detecting Windows malware. Windows malware can't harm you directly (unless, of course, you use Windows.) Just don't pass it on to anyone else.A Windows malware attachment in email is usually easy to recognize. The file name will often be targeted at people who aren't very bright; for example:♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥!!!!!!!H0TBABEZ4U!!!!!!!.AVI♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.exeAnti-virus software may be able to tell you which particular virus or trojan it is, but do you care? In practice, there's seldom a reason to use the software unless a network administrator requires you to do it.The ClamXav developer won't try to "upsell" you to a paid version of the product. Other developers may do that. Don't be upsold. For one thing, you should not pay to protect Windows users from the consequences of their choice of computing platform. For another, a paid upgrade from a free app will probably have the disadvantages mentioned in section 7.9. It seems to be a common belief that the built-in Application Firewall acts as a barrier to infection, or prevents malware from functioning. It does neither. It blocks inbound connections to certain network services you're running, such as file sharing. It's disabled by default and you should leave it that way if you're behind a router on a private home or office network. Activate it only when you're on an untrusted network, for instance a public Wi-Fi hotspot, where you don't want to provide services. Disable any services you don't use in the Sharing preference pane. All are disabled by default.10. As a Mac user you don't have to live in fear that your computer is going to be infected every time you install an application, read email, or visit a web page. But neither should you have the false idea that you will always be safe, no matter what you do. The greatest harm done by security software is precisely its selling point: it makes people feel safe. They may then feel safe enough to take risks from which the software doesn't protect them. Nothing can lessen the need for safe computing practices.
- Their design is predicated on the nonexistent threat that malware may be injected at any time, anywhere in the file system. Malware is downloaded from the network; it doesn't materialize from nowhere.
- In order to meet that nonexistent threat, the software modifies or duplicates low-level functions of the operating system, which is a waste of resources and a common cause of instability, bugs, and poor performance.
- To recognize malware, the software depends on a database of known threats, which is always at least a day out of date. Most of the real-world danger of malware attack comes from highly targeted "zero-day" exploits that are not yet recognized.
- By modifying the operating system, the software itself may create weaknesses that could be exploited by malware attackers.

Norton is renowned for causing problems on Macs, and its detection of Mac malware isn't that great anyway. Avoid it.

The Journal of Aesthetic Education
Volume 46, Number 1, Spring 2012
pp. 91-109
I. Introduction
The sublime has been a relatively neglected topic in recent work in philosophical aesthetics, with existing discussions confined mainly to problems in Kant's theory. Given the revival of interest in his aesthetic theory and the influence of the Kantian sublime compared to other eighteenth-century accounts, this focus is not surprising. Kant's emphasis on nature also sets his theory apart from other eighteenth-century theories that, although making nature central, also give explicit attention to moral character and mathematical ideas and generally devote more discussion to art and artifacts than Kant did. Recent postmodern and poststructuralist theories of the sublime tend to concentrate on the concept in art and literature. New work in aesthetics of nature has mined Kant's discussion of natural beauty, yet little attention has been given to his treatment of the sublime or, indeed, to non-Kantian understandings of the sublime. In this essay I examine the ambiguous place of aesthetic appreciation of nature in Kant's theory of the sublime. Given the significance and influence of his theory, I take my project to be a prolegomenon to any contemporary debate on the relevance of the sublime to aesthetics of nature more generally.
Critical discussions of Kant's mature theory of the sublime, as it appears in the Critique of the Power of Judgment, point to the difficulties and complexities of his ideas and the ambiguous positioning of the sublime between aesthetic and moral concerns in his critical philosophy. Although Kant's theory is deeply indebted to eighteenth-century accounts of the sublime, it is this aesthetic-moral positioning within the framework of transcendental idealism that sets his account apart from them. It may also explain to some extent why his views have had a stronger impact than Burke's on subsequent discussions in philosophy. However, there are several problems internal to Kant's theory, for instance, whether or not sublime judgment is a form of aesthetic judgment, as Kant maintains. Also, given the sublime's role within Kant's critical project, the metaphysical and moral claims of his theory do not work well descriptively. That is, the experience of the sublime as theorized by Kant doesn't fit with the more concrete phenomenological account of our experiences of raging seas, stormy skies, hurricanes, high mountains, etc.
But a more serious problem emerges when we consider Kant's theory in light of recent arguments made about aesthetic appreciation of nature. Most philosophers writing on this topic agree that aesthetic appreciation of nature, if it is to be appropriate to its objects, must involve appreciating nature as nature, and not as, say, art or a product of human design. Now, although natural objects are central to Kant's theory of the sublime, according to Kant, they are not themselves sublime, and it is actually the human capacities of reason and freedom that we judge to be sublime. It might thus appear that the Kantian sublime is too humanistic to serve as a plausible theory for understanding aesthetic appreciation of nature. One might wonder, indeed, if other theories of the sublime would be more useful in theorizing those experiences of the natural world that overwhelm.
It is not my intention to address recent discussions of aesthetic appreciation of nature but rather to determine whether Kant is open to charges that serve as grounds for dismissing his views from the start. I believe that although Kant's theory is ambiguous in its approach to aesthetic appreciation of nature, it has more to offer than might first appear. Rather than merely reducing sublime feeling and value to an awareness of our moral vocation, I advance a more measured approach that recognizes the complexity and subtlety of Kant's account. Specifically, I argue that we cannot overlook his insistence that judgments of the sublime fall squarely within the aesthetic domain and, as such, natural objects become significant to appreciation. In opposition to claims that natural objects are mere triggers of the sublime response, I show how they may be given a proper, if indirect, causal role. Furthermore, rather than downplaying the links to morality in Kant's account, I argue that if the distinction between the aesthetic...

usb 3.0 speed slow hp envy dv6 7215tx
I have a Hp 7215tx,
My issue is that i have a Brand new Patriot Supersonic Express usb 3.0 and a Kingston Data Traveler 3.0, Both of their write and read speeds are over 40Mbps but when i run them in my Laptop's usb 3.0 ports they start off around 21Mbps and then 10 seconds later drop to 7Mbps.
Yet when I use these same usb's on my brother's asus or dell, they run at their full potential.
So is there something wrong with the ports or am i missing proper drivers.. I have kept my system upto date with Hp automatic updates.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanx in advance
Re: usb 3.0 speed slow hp envy dv6 7215tx
Hello gnmongia,
Your USB 3.0 ports are running slow.
Make sure you are using the port that has SS next to it, to be sure that you are using the 3.0 ports.
Go to HP.com and update the BIOS.
Also go to device manager and uninstall the USB ports and restart the computer.
This will uninstall and reinstall the drivers for the ports.
Here is a link to device manager.
Clicking the White Kudos star on the left is a way to say Thanks!
Let me know how everything goes.
Have a good day.
Re: usb 3.0 speed slow hp envy dv6 7215tx
thank you anthony for your prompt reply.
I have done Exactly as you have suggested and still it is exactly the same issue. The transfer starts at around 40mbps and then 5 seconds later reduces to 10mbps,.
attached is screen capture of the situation.
any help would be highly appreciated.
I tend to tranfer alot of big files for my study related purposes therefor i require decent speeds.
Re: usb 3.0 speed slow hp envy dv6 7215tx
Go to power options and change the power settings to high performance.
Also go to advanced settings and USB settings and disable selective suspend setting.
- Go to your start screen
- Type POWER.
- Click settings.
- Click power options.
- Click show additional plans.
- Select high performance.
- Click change plan settings.
- Click change advanced power settings.
- Double click USB settings
- Double click selective suspend setting
- Disable on battery and plugged in.

Re: usb 3.0 speed slow hp envy dv6 7215tx
thanx for your advice once again anothony,
I tried exactly as you have suggested but to no success. I have also tried my USB on another computer with 3.0 port and it works better then it should so nothing wrong there.
But the problem still persists on my computer. It just starts off perfect and 4 seconds in just drops suddenly.
I have also tried different sizes and types of files whilst transfering to no succes.
Any further help will be muchly appreciated otherwise any advice on whom i should speak to about this would be great.

Best Airport Fare (2001)
D'Atri's at Scottsdale Municipal Airport
Fine dining has landed at the Scottsdale Municipal Airport, thanks to the Valley's own Channel 3 celebrity Jan D'Atri. This joint's home-style Italian food is so delicious that you'll find us there, even if the only baggage we've got is our childhood. The location's a surprise, until you remember that Scottsdale Airport is frequented by folks who don't want corn dogs, but a maitre d', votive candles, white tablecloths and niceties such as rack of lamb, shrimp and scallop skewers and filet mignon. There's great stuff for us working-class folk, too: terrific panini sandwiches, pasta and sausage. We love the fresh-off-the-bird turkey breast sandwich, grilled with provolone, mozzarella, feta, mushrooms and caramelized onion. D'Atri's pastas fly high, anchored by homemade noodles and stunning sauces. Thanks, D'Atri's, for a fuel bill that's a delight to pay.

Acclaim® PolarAdvantage (PA) columns feature a patented bonding chemistry that incorporates a polar sulfonamide group near the surface of the silica particle. This unique chemistry provides good hydrolytic stability and allows a single column to resolve a wide variety of polar and nonpolar analytes. The Acclaim PA is compatible with 100% aqueous mobile phases and supports LC/MS analysis.Conventional C18 phases are not compatible with highly aqueous mobile phases, due to dewetting. The Acclaim PA column by design has a mildly hydrophilic surface, which remains in contact with aqueous-only mobile phases, negating the problems of dewetting common with conventional reversed-phase columns.Acclaim® PolarAdvantage Reversed-Phase LC Column Features: Low silanol activity for excellent peak sh...Read more
