MSI Upgrades the Adora24 All-in-One PC
Today, MSI is introducing two new Adora24 All-in-One PCs, which have been equipped with the Intel 4th Gen Mobile Core i3 / i5 multi-core processor (Haswell) and a high-end NVIDIA GeForce GT 740M discrete graphics card. This ultra-slim AIO PC is pioneering in the industry with its flicker-free display technology, which protects the users from eyestrain and fatigue when working for extended periods.
The all new Adora24 PC's also have MSI's latest software tools, which are convenient when working both at home or at an office. MSI's Copy & Send software enables the user to send datafiles to the cloud and access them via an external device such as a smartphone or tablet, both supporting Windows and Android OS. With MSI Splashtop, the user can access files stored on the Adora24 when connected to the same network. This means you can play graphic-intensive games from your Adora24 AIO PC via your tablet. You can also stream music or watch HD movies in a similar way.
The MSI Adora24M and Adora24G will be in stores by end of October 2013.
A new series, a new design
The Adora All-in-One PC features a totally new design and chassis, built around the concept of ultra-slim and visual awe. A big portion of the I/O connections are neatly tucked away on the backside of the AIO, creating a neat desk when fully installed and connected to other devices. A beautiful frameless display works conveniently with 10-point touch control and Windows 8. The Adora24 is a fashionable addition to any office or study and can be mounted on a wall via the VESA wallmount technology.
Flickerfree technology
The Flickerfree technology integrated into the Adora24 display stabilizes the power current and prevents flickering invisible to the bare eye under normal conditions. When used for extended periods of time, it effectively reduces eyestrain while also improving productivity. MSI provides the best visual experience and also integrates an anti-glare display on its touch AIO PC. The technology is supported on non-touch models as well. For offices with serious glare problems, brightly-lit retail stores or the study at home, the anti-glare feature protects users' eye against reflections off the computer monitor.
NVIDIA GT 740M discrete graphics
MSI Adora24 comes with the NVIDIA GeForce GT 740M graphics card to deliver the best cost-performance video quality at Full HD resolution. The GeForce GT 740M supports Optimus technology for instantaneous switching between the CPU's integrated graphics and the GT 740M under different user scenarios. This function previously only in notebooks means that even AIO PCs can achieve optimum energy-efficiency.
The best intuitive remote desktop application can now be found in MSI All-in-One PCs. Access your AIO from any mobile device and from anywhere when connected to the same network. From the comfort of your mobile device, you can now use your favorite Windows and Mac apps and programs, watch HD movies, TV shows and Flash videos at up to 30 frames per second with low latencyStream your music. You can even view presentations with full audio and video or play graphic-intensive games from your tablet or other devices.

BENGHAZI, Libya Protesters stormed the Benghazi headquarters of Libya's ruling National Transitional Council (NTC) on Saturday while its chairman was still in the building.
People in Benghazi, birthplace of the revolt which forced out former Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi, have been protesting for weeks to demand the sacking of Gaddafi-era officials and more transparency about how the NTC is spending Libyan assets.
The attack is a serious blow to the self-appointed but internationally recognised NTC, and underscores growing discontent over the way it is running the country.
Many of those who fought in the nine-month civil war that ended with the capture and killing of Gaddafi in October are unhappy with cash compensations promised by the government, saying it does not cover their basic needs.
On a Saturday, hundreds of young men, many wounded from the war, rallied outside the NTC's headquarters.
When Abdul Jalil, NTC chairman, came out in an attempt to address the crowd, some protesters hurled empty plastic bottles at him, prompting security forces to fire tear gas.
"Go away, Go away," the protesters chanted as Abdul Jalil spoke. He then went back into the building but he is believed to have been pulled to safety from a back door when the crowd charged into the building.
Protesters threw stones and metal bars at the building, breaking its windows, before storming the headquarters. One protester left the building carrying a set of loudspeakers and screaming: "Spoils of war!"
Angry protesters also damaged a Toyota Land Cruiser used by Abdul Jalil.
"A large number of wounded people were unhappy because the National (Transitional) Council has not met their demands," said 30-year-old Tareq al-Gheryani as he watched people attacking the NTC's headquarters.
"People are not happy with the council because it has also given government posts to people who are known to have links with Gaddafi."
Interim government officials say it is impossible for them sack hundreds of officials merely because they served under Gaddafi, but stress that those proved to have been involved in human rights abuses or financial fraud will be fired.
The NTC is grappling with problems, including the disbanding of dozens of powerful militias that effectively control the country. The ministries of interior and defence want to integrate them into a military and police force, but militia chiefs have shown little interest in surrendering their arms.
On Thursday, Abdul Hafiz Ghoga, vice president of the NTC, was roughed up by university students in Benghazi. He was surrounded by a crowd and jostled before he was pulled away to safety. (Reporting by Mohamad Al-Tommy; Writing by Mahmoud Habboush and Christian Lowe; Editing by Andrew Roche)

Hi there,
I'm trying to plan a trip for my husband and I (both Canadian) to East Africa over December and January, and was wondering if anyone had any pearls of wisdom to help. I've read through a number of postings on here, and I'm getting the idea that I should try and book through a safari company that is based within East Africa? Is that the best way to go? I mostly want to be in the wilderness, taking photographs, etc. I think I would like to visit Kenya, Tanzania and Rwanda, which should be do-able in 6 weeks (I imagine). I don't want to be with a large group of people, and would be happy to pay extra for a dedicated guide at certain times for photography.
I'm also curious about the best places to see birds in these countries. If anyone has any thoughts, please let me know. What is "not to be missed"? Is it worth spending some time on the coast?
If anyone out there can recommend someone that can help me plan an itinerary, I would very much appreciate it!

Hi there,
Report Abuse
Hi Birdie111 - we spent 3 weeks in Tanzania and Rwanda last January - had a wonderful time and had a great guide Felix Mollel (who loves birds and loves "bird nerds" as clients) Here's a link to our blog - we're in France right now and won't have internet access for a few days but I will post more then
You can email me at
eseibertca AT yahoo DOT ca
There are a couple of ways to book Felix directly - one is an agent in Toronto (where we are from)

Hi Birdee,We are well travelled but we have been to Africa - east Africa several times. We had a guide that is specialised in photography as my husband does proffessional photography. Some of the best places to see birds in Kenya is Lewa, Lake Nakuru and Shimba Hills. I do not have very much information but I can recommend to you the company that plans our travel to africa for us. You can just email a lady there by the name Norma and she will give you all the details that you require.
If you are mainly interested in birds then you may skip the coast. The best thing is to email the proffessionals and they will guide you in the right direction.
PM me on firstname.lastname@example.com

This is a very good place to start:

In Tanzania, Tarangire is great for birds.
Do know, regardless whether Kenya, Tanzania or Rwanda, from 20th December it's peak-season with some supplements for Christmas and New Year's days, so prices are at their highest.
Depending on where you visit there are besides lodging & meals, park fees, daily guide/vehicle fees, flights (if you include any), and taxes... it will depend on type of accommodations you consider. Budget camping would be the least expensive on public sites, with shared facilities (bathrooms). Then there's camping on "special" sites, where they set-up a private loo/shower for you. Then there are lodges, permanent and seasonal tent camps.
Suggest you send requirements to a few companies whether in the respective countries for an idea of what can be done and costs. You've got a year to work on it, but if 2012 is anything like 2011... once you've got it pretty close to set, don't tarry. Everything seems to be booking up rather fast for 2011.
Return here on the same thread which is best way to monitor your progress and for you to find yourself, and we can all assist. Good luck!
Report Abuse
Thank you all so much for your help! I REALLY appreciate it!
Elizabeth and Happyhippytraveller, I would like to email you for more information. I will probably do that shortly. And yes, I know I'll be dealing with some higher prices for travelling during the holidays, but I'm okay with that. I have a fair bit saved up, and I'm usually willing to splurge when it comes to holidays and travelling. The memories will last me a lifetime and mean more to me than the $$ ever will. And my husband and I are pretty flexible on lodgings and don't mind camping (we're in our mid-30s and very outdoorsy).
Do you think I will be okay if I don't officially book anything until later in spring? I don't know how quickly permits book up and so on. This is definitely the earliest I've ever gotten around to planning a holiday, so I'm giving myself a little pat on the back for that (haha). Sounds like it's a good thing I've started early!
On a somewhat related note...can anyone recommend decent field ID books for birds in these areas?
Thanks again! Also, if anyone has any more detailed information to send, please feel free to email me at birdee111 AT yahoo.ca

I like the soft cover Collin Illustrated Checklist Birds of Eastern Africa by Ber Van Perlo.
A beautifully illustrated book is Filed Guide to the Birds of East Africa Kenya Tanzania Uganda RWanda Burundi by Terry Stevenson and John Fanshawe.
Whatever company you book with, make sure your interest in birds is known. Not all guides are good birders or have a real interest in the feathered species.
Ben of Eastern and Southern Safaris in Nairobi was an outstanding birder in Kenya.
Ben's nephew (also named Ben) has a birding safari company in Kenya called Ben's Ecological Safaris, which also emphasizes mammals. I ran into a couple traveling with BES who had just seen their 900th bird in Africa and were thrilled. In Rwanda, Kirenga is a great birder and guide. He works mainly for Volcanoes, but for other companies as well.
If you have some flexibility in dates, I think late Spring would be ok. Since you mention "permits" and Rwanda, if you want to visit the gorillas, then you should secure those permits first and build your trip around that.
You're on track for a fantastic trip.

I actually went over $3 instead of save using "Prime Eligible" textbooks versus standard shipping. But, I don't care because I need my books yesterday. So if using the 2-day shipping without "Prime" I WOULD have PAID A LOT MORE. So here's how it works (b/c I was confused and redirected/relinked to the same Amazon pages): 1. Sign up for Amazon Student or whatever i.e. verify emails and such. 2. Your account should now read Amazon Prime somewhere on your page, should be top upper left hand corner. 3. Now go search for your books. 4. I'll assume you'll click used once you find your book. 5. You will now see if a book is "Prime Eligible" or not. If it is it will say PRIME underneath the price. If it's not, it won't say anything special and all will be normal. If you go beyond that page and not see Prime than you didn't see/understood what was going on. 6. If you were lucky enough to find a book that was "Prime Eligible" than you're all set and throughout the check-out process you'll see your books will be free 2-day shipping. Good Luck P.S. "Prime Eligible" have restrictions on what can and can not be eligible...it's boring and not worth your while, so I won't repeat the restrictions. Just sign up and look for your books.

I am not sure what I am doing with these things, but restricted myself to NOT ACQUIRING for at least a year keeping a mini rose alive. Okay, on the home front, found a heavy bearer rose, managed to keep it into it's third blooming season for me.
Okay, I have four others that ARE NOT suffering the same symtoms. This one rose is an extremely heavy bearer. I noticed the same symtoms last year but put it down to my inexperience. This one rose had over 22 buds on one stem. About 1/3 to 1/2 of them opened then the whole plant deteriorated and started dropping. Not knowing what to do, I did nothing, but keep watering. Now all the foliage looks Crispy Fried and if you even sneeze in it's direction it looses leaves. The stems are still green and firm. But what to do in the meantime?
I recently replanted all the rest as I had some in Terra Cotta, and smaller pots, and wanted them all in good 'rose' soil and similar pots. Super drainage, bonemeal, perlite, vermiculite, oyester shell, Supersoil, their very own Fungus Gnats (oh, that's another post). But this one I did not repot. It's been in the same pot for 2 1/2 years.
There seems to be no Black Spot issues, no powdery mildew, no excessive aphids, I have LB nymphs, and lots and lots of spiders. The rest of the buds never did open, and like I said, looks like a good sneeze would send it off in the wind. What is it, and how do it prevent it next year?
Oooooooh, dead rose walking

Two suggestions. Could be root bound after 21/2 years in the same pot while continually growing. If that is the case, it can't take up enough water to sustain growth. That would cause the leaves to "krispy" . Secondly, I've noticed the "krispy" leaf effect on potted roses that had spider mites.

Twenty cases of assisted suicide not prosecuted in Britain
LONDON, December 17, 2010 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Twenty people in Britain who have admitted to assisting suicides, a criminal offense, will not be prosecuted, the Director of Public Prosecutions told a private committee investigating the "laws and issues" surrounding assisted suicide this week. Since the new policy on prosecuting assisted suicide cases was put in place early this year, "there have been no prosecutions for assisted suicide," said DPP Keir Starmer.
Starmer called the cases "difficult," since they involved families in which relatives were accused of assisting in the suicides of loved ones. Assisted suicide remains a criminal offence in England and Wales, in theory punishable by up to 14 years in prison. But this February, Starmer issued new guidelines that said persons who had assisted suicides would not be prosecuted if it were believed that they had acted without a motive of personal gain .
Starmer was speaking at a private "independent" inquiry into the "laws and issues" surrounding assisted suicide launched last month by one of the House of Lords' most enthusiastic promoters of legalised assisted suicide. Charles Lord Falconer was Lord Chancellor under Labour Prime Minister Tony Blair, and is the leader of a cadre in Parliament who are ardently campaigning to legalise assisted suicide.
According to Starmer, in 2009-10, there were 19 cases where the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) was asked to make a decision whether to prosecute. In 17 of those cases it was decided there should be no further action. One of those cases is on-going and one was withdrawn by the police. In 2010-11 there have been 14 cases so far. 11 are on-going and with a decision for no further action in 3.
Starmer added, "We did have discussion about whether we should use the word 'victim' or not in the policy. We used it because when you're talking about the
criminal law it works well in describing the parties, but I know that not everybody would agree with that."
Explaining the genesis of the new policy, Starmer said that it was put in place in advance of a public consultation on the law. The CPS, he said, knew that there would "be a number of individuals who might find themselves in a difficult circumstance during the currency of the consultation and we didn't want them to have no guidance".
"Parliament it seemed to us had signaled that not every act that technically comes within the terms of the offence need necessarily be prosecuted," he added.
Falconer's Commission has been heavily criticised for its pro-legalisation bias. The Commission, that is not a work of the House of Lords, was launched late last month after two attempts to legalise assisted suicide through democratic processes failed by large voting margins - 148-100 and 194-141 in the House of Lords in 2006 and 2009 respectively.
Last year, Falconer and his supporters failed to weaken the current law with an amendment to the Coroners and Justice bill that would have made it legal for family members to help relatives go to Switzerland to end their lives at the Dignitas euthanasia "clinic" .
Falconer said that his "independent" Commission would be a "serious and dispassionate investigation" into the need for a change in the law. The Commission intends to publish a report in October 2011 which it hopes will be discussed in Parliament.
Countering the "dispassionate" claim is the revelation that of the 12 members of the Commission, at least eight are on record as favouring legalising assisted suicide. The Commission is being conducted under the supervision of the campaign group 'Dignity in Dying, formerly the Voluntary Euthanasia Society and is funded by novelist Sir Terry Pratchett, who has himself called for legalisation of assisted suicide for people suffering from dementia.
It has been heavily criticised for bias by disability rights campaigners. Richard Hawkes, chief executive of the disability charity Scope, said, "[W]e are deeply concerned that this pseudo 'commission' will not reflect the concerns and fears of many disabled people. When it is funded by supporters of legalising assisted suicide, and without a formal remit from government, we would question how independent this commission really can be."
Dr. Peter Saunders, campaign director of the Care Not Killing alliance, said, "This so-called independent commission has all the appearances of a stitch-up and serious questions have already been raised about transparency and objectivity."
George Pitcher, a liberal Anglican minister who has written a book against legalisation of assisted suicide, was asked by Falconer to give evidence to the Commission. In an open letter to Falconer in the Daily Telegraph, Pitcher called the inquiry a "sham," saying it is nothing more than a naked publicity campaign to legalise euthanasia.
Pitcher said it is "difficult to see" how the Commission could be "interpreted as anything even approaching 'independent' or 'dispassionate'". He asks Falconer to reveal how many members of the House of Lords refused to give evidence and whether any of the Lords who oppose legalisation of assisted suicide were approached for membership.

Texas AG to Target: Show me how you'll protect women and kids from criminals
AUSTIN, Texas, May 5, 2016 (LifeSiteNews) – The latest backlash Target received as a result of its transgender bathroom policy was a letter from Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton asking the company to provide its safety policies to protect women and children from "those who would use the cover of Target's restroom policy for nefarious purposes."
"Target, of course, is free to choose such a policy for its Texas stores," Paxton wrote in a letter to Target CEO Brian Cornell. He noted the possibility of the Texas Legislature addressing the issue in the future, but said, "regardless of whether Texas legislates on this topic, it is possible that allowing men in women's restrooms could lead to criminal and otherwise unwanted activity."
"As chief lawyer and law enforcement officer for the State of Texas, I ask that you provide the full text of Target's safety policies regarding the protection of women and children from those who would use the cover of Target's restroom policy for nefarious purposes," Paxton continued.
More than 1.1 million people have pledged to boycott Target over its new policy allowing men to access women's bathrooms. Opponents of the policy worry that it puts women and children at risk by emboldening predators, who may now freely enter women's restrooms.
Target's new policy is "inclusive," the company claims, and they say "everyone…deserves to be protected from discrimination, and treated equally."
"Texans statewide can no longer be silent on the issue of protecting the safety of women and children," Texas Values President and Attorney Jonathan Saenz said in a statement Wednesday urging Texans to boycott Target. This is the first time in its history the pro-family group has called for a boycott.
"We need all Texans to understand that Target is using this radical change in their store policy to try convince people that our laws should be changed in this dangerous direction as well," said Saena. "Our goal with this boycott is for Target to change its dangerous new policy, to raise awareness of the real threats to safety that these policies bring and to help businesses and lawmakers understand the significant opposition to such measures that is growing daily… Texans all across our state must join this Boycott Target effort before someone gets hurt."
On Tuesday a male allegedly filmed an underage girl at a Frisco, Texas, Target fitting room. Police are searching for the man.
There have been numerous incidents of male predators across North America accessing women's facilities and citing transgender policies as allowing them to do so.

Christians, America has reached a crisis point. Are you ready to take up this challenge?
May 5, 2016 (Albert Mohler) -- For nearly two and a half centuries, Americans have enjoyed the enormous privilege and responsibility of forming our own government—a privilege rarely experienced throughout most of human history. For most of history, humanity has struggled with the question of how to respond to a government that was essentially forced upon them. But Americans have often struggled with a very different reality; how do we rightly respond to the government that we choose?
To put all of this in historical perspective, the Framers of the American experiment understood that a representative democracy built on the principle of limited government would require certain virtues of its citizens. These would include a restraint of passions and an upholding of traditional moral virtues, without which democracy would not be possible. As the idea of limited government implies, the citizenry would be required to carry out the social responsibilities of the community without the intrusion of government and, thus, citizens would be expected to have the moral integrity necessary for such an arrangement. The Framers of the American Republic also agreed that it would be impossible to have a representative democracy and a limited government if the people did not elect leaders who embodied the virtues of the citizenry while also respecting and protecting society's pre-political institutions: marriage and family, the church, and the local community.
Thus, the idea of a limited government requires that society uphold and pursue the health of its most basic institutions. When a civil society is weak, government becomes strong. When the family breaks down, government grows stronger. When the essential institutions of society are no longer respected, government demands that respect for itself. That is a recipe for tyranny.
Much of this was essentially affirmed until the early decades of the 20th century when progressivists began promoting an agenda that fundamentally redefined the role of the federal government in public life. By the middle of the 20th century, the Democratic Party had essentially embraced this progressivist agenda, becoming committed to an increasingly powerful government—a government whose powers exceeded those enumerated in the Constitution. At the same time, the Democratic Party also began advocating for a basic redefinition of the morality that shaped the common culture. By and large, however, the Republican Party continued to maintain a commitment to the vision of America's founders, advocating for a traditional understanding of morality while also upholding the principle of limited government.
By the 1980s, the two parties represented two very different worldviews and two very different visions of American government. For decades, each party has acted rather predictably and in ways that accord with their fundamental principles. All of that, however, has now changed.
The 2016 presidential campaign has developed in an entirely unpredictable manner and, in many respects, represents a crisis in American democracy. This crisis is not limited to either party. Bernie Sanders, the Independent senator from Vermont, has won several stunning victories in the primary season over presumed Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton. While it is still extremely likely that Clinton will become the Democratic nominee, Sanders support among voters represents a populist flirtation with Democratic Socialism. This pattern is something few Democrats could have imagined just one year ago. What this foray into Democratic Socialism represents, then, is a radical adjustment of the Democratic Party's basic economic principles. Thus, even if Hillary Clinton becomes the nominee, the process will likely drag her even further to the left, eventually redefining the Democratic Party before our very eyes.
But if it is remarkable to see what is happening in the Democratic Party, it is absolutely shocking to see what is happening among Republicans. Traditionally, the Republican Party has established its reputation by standing for the principles advocated by the American Founders—limited government upheld by the health of society's primary institutions such as marriage, family, and community. Yet Donald Trump, the presumptive nominee for the Republican Party, represents virtually everything the Republican Party has typically defined itself over against. Clearly, both political parties are now redefining themselves. What is not clear is where each party will ultimately end up. What is also not clear is whether the American experiment can survive such radical political change.
As already noted, the American experiment in limited government requires that the citizenry and those who hold public office honor certain moral virtues and respect the institutions that are crucial for a society to rightly function. Yet, we now find ourselves in a situation where the three leading candidates for president show little to no respect for such institutions in their articulations of public policy.
This fundamental redefinition of the American political landscape requires Christians to think carefully about their political responsibility. Make no mistake; we cannot avoid that responsibility. Even refusing to vote is itself a vote because it privileges those who do vote and increases the value of each ballot. In truth, we bear a political responsibility that cannot be dismissed or delegated to others. Every Christian must be ready to responsibly steward his or her vote at the polls.
To put the matter bluntly, we are now confronted with the reality that, in November, Hillary Clinton will likely be the Democratic nominee and Donald Trump the Republican nominee. This poses a significant problem for many Christians who believe they cannot, in good conscience, vote for either candidate. As a result, Christians are going to need a lot of careful political reflection in order to steward their vote and their political responsibility in this election cycle.
Headlines from around the world tell us that other representative democracies are at a similar moment of redefinition. Political turmoil now marks the United Kingdom and also nations like France and other key American allies. Perhaps democracy itself is now facing a crucial hour of decision and a crucial season of testing. It is no exaggeration to say that democracy is being tested around the world; it is certainly being tested here at home. Yet if this is a moment of testing for democracy, it is also a crucial moment for Christian witness. This election cycle is going to be a particular test for American Christians—and we are about to find out if Christians are up to this challenge.

'Sick and twisted': Scientists keep embryos alive outside womb up to 13 days for experimentation
May 5, 2016 (LifeSiteNews) – Two teams of scientists have announced that they have been able to keep human embryos alive outside the womb for 13 days for the purpose of conducting scientific experiments. Some call the announcement the onset of a "Brave New World," while others are petitioning lawmakers to lift sanctions that would keep scientists from experimenting on newly conceived babies even longer.
Researchers from Cambridge University, King's College, and Rockefeller University said in two separate reports that they stopped at 13 days only to avoid violating an internationally accepted law. At least 12 nations restrict the amount of time a newly conceived child may be kept alive in a laboratory to 14 days, the point at which scientists believe "individuality" begins.
The newest development allows scientists to observe newly conceived human beings after the point at which implantation in the womb would have occurred.
Professor Magdalena Zernicka-Goetz, one of the studies' lead researchers, said her team's breakthrough could advance embryonic stem cell research and "can improve IVF success."
Some scientists have called on the international community to extend the amount of time such experimentation can take place.
"If restrictions such as the 14-day rule are viewed as moral truths, such cynicism would be warranted," three experts – Insoo Hyun, Amy Wilkerson, and Josephine Johnston – wrote in a commentary published yesterday in Nature magazine. "But when they are understood to be tools designed to strike a balance between enabling research and maintaining public trust, it becomes clear that, as circumstances and attitudes evolve, limits can be legitimately recalibrated."
Pro-life experts said the experimentation destroys human life and could lead to grave ethical dilemmas by extending the research.
"No human being should be used for lethal experimentation, no matter their age or stage of development," said Dr. David Prentice, a professor of molecular genetics and an Advisory Board Member for the Midwest Stem Cell Therapy Center. "The 14-day rule is itself arbitrary, and does not assuage those who believe life begins at the moment of sperm-egg fusion. Moreover, allowing experiments on human embryos beyond 14 days post-fertilization risks the lives of untold more human beings, because it further encourages creation and destruction for research purposes."
Kristan Hawkins, president of Students for Life of America, called the experimentation "sick and twisted."
"Science has undeniably proven that a new human life, with unrepeatable DNA, begins at conception," she said. "There is no reason for experimentation on that human life and science itself should not be heralding thae fact that a tiny human being can survive now for two weeks outside of the womb, all for the sole purpose of experimentation."
Dr. Prentice noted that embryonic stem cell research "has yielded no benefit thus far," leading even its most vocal advocates, such as Michael J. Fox, to admit it has not lived up to its promise.
"If this research does not stop at 14 days, where does it stop?" asked Prentice. "This is a risky step which could encourage further eugenic attitudes and actions."
Dr. Prentice encouraged Congress "to have a full and open debate on the issue of human embryo research before the research community moves further without oversight."

The Senate filibuster, R.I.P. (1806-2013)
It was a truly historic moment on the Senate floor on Thursday, when Majority Leader Harry Reid led a Democratic Party push to mostly kill the filibuster, the tool used by minority parties in the past to block votes and motions in the Senate.

Doug Kendall and Tom Donnelly from the Constitutional Accountability Center say Harry Reid's decision to kill the Senate filibuster for executive branch appointees and most judicial appointees is a move that will let the President fulfill his constitutional duty.
Filibuster Reaction: Harry Reid's nuclear hypocrisy
Roger Pilon from the CATO Institute says Harry Reid's decision to greatly limit the Senate filibuster is a hypocrisy, since it was the Democrats who first adopted the practice of blocking executive-branch nominations.

Video: Jeff Gordon pranks reporter with epic 'police chase'
The legendary driver devised an elaborate plan to trick a reporter into thinking they were running from the cops
By PoliceOne Staff
NASCAR driver Jeff Gordon teamed up with Pepsi Max to prove to a pessimistic reporter that a prank video was real by doing it again — this time taking the reporter on an outrageous phony police chase.
Travis Okulski, a writer for the blog Jalopnik, tried discrediting a prank video done by Gordon for a Pepsi promotion last year by telling news channels the stunt was a hoax.
Pepsi contacted Gordon and created an elaborate plan to set the story straight. They disguised Gordon as an ex-convict cab driver hired to pick Okulski up from his hotel.
Before the terrified journalist knew what was happening, police sirens were blaring and his cabbie hit the gas, explaining that he had already 'done time.'

Kamrun wants to introduce Dennis Lincoln to his enormous slit, but hasn't had him alone and to himself long enough until now. Getting him naked and touching him all over in his backyard, Dennis gets the idea pretty quickly and pulls Kamrun's shaft out for a quick go with his tongue before getting him naked too so they can really play! A little rimming is in order after the oral to get their asses good and wet and lubricated before they go balls deep in one another. Fucking hard, the jizzum comes fast, and gets everywhere!

Sail-World.com : Sirocco Marine Expands North
Sirocco Marine Expands North

Taking a leaf from the books of prestige brands like Mercedes Benz and Ralph Lauren, Sirocco Marine has opened new premises in the Coomera commercial precinct of Maritimo's Bill Barry-Cotter, positioning its main brand, BRIG Inflatables as a high-end consumer good.
'We are aiming to create all the glitz and glamour of a designer showroom,' explains Dylan Lopez, director for Sirocco Marine North, the new Queensland operation.

Lopez previously worked with Neil Webster and the Sirocco Marine team from Alexandria in Sydney, focusing on establishing the BRIG brand as the luxury tender for powerboats and cruisers 48'+.
'Our main target is new Rivieras, Maritimos, Alaskas, Cheoy Lees, Sunseekers. At SIBS we were offering them to the new boat market as a package deal and from there it's mostly word of mouth.'
Previously seen as an 'A to B tender', the BRIG range is fast-becoming 'a lifestyle item', according to Lopez. 'You can waterski behind them, spend the day out on one, they have long range fuel tanks for island hopping and they leave the competition for dead in terms of styling and design.'
Lopez reports that since beginning importing into this country four years ago, Sirocco Marine has '100% customer satisfaction to date'.
'They come with a guarantee of five years, but with the superior hyperlon bodies you can easily get 10 years out of them. All components are high quality – Dupont material, gel coat, paint work, accessories. It's comparable to a prestige sports car.'
Sirocco Marine North has been open on the Gold Coast since May, coinciding its opening with SCIBS and occupies a highly visible showroom on the front corner of the new complex on Waterway Drive.
'We've installed $10,000 game chairs, beautiful tiles and luxury designer interiors. We want to elevate the usual inflatable showroom to the standard of a luxury brand to reflect the niche BRIG occupies in Europe and more and more, here in Australia.
'We have just finished a deal with Honda for its most expensive engines as well, adding to the impact and branding of the showroom.'
BRIG is showcased like a prestige auto marque. - MIAA

Lopez was instrumental in growing the BRIG brand in WA and NSW and intends to increase brand-awareness and sales in Queensland. Lopez's background is in marketing and sales for companies including One-Tel and KPMG.
Pivotal to penetration in the state is the company's new website, which Lopez acknowledges was inspired by brands like Maritimo, Mercedes Benz and other automotive and marine icons.
