Video Transcript:
Hi, Kristy at the Rada Kitchen, and I just made a batch of Luscious Slush Punch for a graduation party. I found this recipe in the Santa's Favorite Holiday Treats and Christmas Sweets. It's just not recipes for the holidays. This punch works great for graduations or bridal showers. It's delicious and easy. The coloring took strawberry Jell-O, but if you had a color theme, you could make lemon lime Jell-O to make it green or any color to match your decor. There's over 130 recipes in this cookbook.

Easiest Gym Leader you've beaten? How did you defeat him/her?
Rather hard choice, since most battles has turned out differently in each playthrough, and depending on the Pokémon you've caught and how well you've trained them, the outcome isn't always clear. I do recall Bugsy being pretty easy though, since I almost always chose a Fire starter, and almost always caught a Bird type Pokémon before I reached him, which made the threat that Scyther would otherwise pose as, a minor difficulty. I wouldn't say any first gym leaders, because depending on which game you chose first and all that stuff, and depending on if you knew the objective of the game in your first playthrough, the difficulty of the first gym leader could vary.

Researchers with the Center for Paralysis Research in Purdue University's School of Veterinary Medicine have developed a technology that may someday prevent paralysis in humans with spinal cord injuries. The technology utilizes polyethylene glycol (PEG) to treat acute spinal cord injuries brain trauma, peripheral nerve damage or stroke. When administered within 72 hours of serious spinal injury, PEG was shown in preclinical studies to prevent or reduce permanent spinal damage in most dogs.

Students that attend IIT go to study and become future leaders, not to fool around or party. I am currently learning so much from the architecture program. The professors are practicing architects and although I just ended my first semester, I feel like my work is improving a lot! In addition, there's people from all around the world and a lot of student organizations!
To find more tips for prospective students, what to do for fun and whether this school is great for a particular type of student read the 52 reviews for Illinois Institute of Technology
Curious about something that isn't answered here? Feel free to ask Illinois Institute of Technology a question
Most awesome school I have visited.... Definitely made my choice to attend this school withing the first 30 minutes I was there. Loved everything about it and was blown away...Read More
IIT is a small, private university with outstanding academics and supportive staff. The student body, though mostly international and male dominated, is diverse. The superb transportation system allows students to explore the city.Read More
IIT offers a great curriculum that balances hands-on projects with theory. Each and every professor is willing to help you succeed if you are willing to put in the work. The university is incredibly diverse, and every student has an equal opportunity in succeeding.Read More
IIT is such a great university, and that it's an honor for me to be able to study there. It is highly ranked in education quality and it's very diverse with a lot of international students coming from all over the world. Excellent place to study and find experience.Read More
The school is very diverse. The proffesors here are smart and engaging. However, it seems more expensive than it needs to be.Read More
At IIT life can be a breeze, unless you are an architect major. 95% of people are nice, if you look in the right places. You will find a job right out of college, if you look in the right places and again this excludes architects.Read More
IIT seems to be a great school for pursuing engineering or technology in general. I have researched and have found more positive things on the school than anything. It looks like a great opportunity to study here and I look forward to my decision letter in the mail.Read More
Check out their graduation rate. Being at 38% for four years, I expected a lot of students to attend co-op programs, yet after six years the graduation rate is only 64%. I have yet to find out why this is, but I find this fact disturbing.Read More
IIT is a lot more rigorous than expected, yet the quality of education is also more refined and of a higher grade than most would perceive. It is a technical focused school yet continues to capture the hearts of the wild students and can still let loose and have fun. All in all, it is a school that defies expectations and exists to usurp its perceived stereotype.Read More
IIT is a place where students wil find out their path of life, a place where glory is achieved,a place you can take a look of the world.Read More

I am using Vista Home Premium laptop and Windows Live Mail as my default client. I installed live mail just two days ago, earlier I was using Windows Mail but as it was creating many problems because of Norton Antivirus on my system, I quit it and started using Live Mail.
The problem am facing is when I try sending any email, it wont get send and instead I get this error:
The host 'smtp.gmail.net.om' could not be found. Please verify that you haveentered the server name correctly.
Subject 'Bose Quiet Comfort 2 Headphones - Brand New - $225 (Parker, CO)',
Account: 'Gmail', Server: 'smtp.gmail.net.om', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25,
Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 11001, Error Number: 0x800CCC0D
Im not sure if my settings are incorrect, you can just confirm the same here:
My incoming mail server is a 'IMAP' server
Incoming mail (IMAP) : imap.gmail.com
Outgoing mail (SMTP) : smtp.gmail.com
My incoming mail server is a 'POP3' server
Incoming mail (POP3) : pop3.hotmail.com
Outgoing mail (SMTP) : smtp.hotmail.com
I using this laptop on WiFi zone, so there is no specific ISP for me hence I dont think the problem would be from there end. Can you guys tell me what is the problem with Live Mail?

At about 0830 on May 29, 2011 a report was received of a BASE jumper plummeting to the ground after his parachute failed to properly deploy. Emergency responders were dispatched to East Multnomah County. The jumper was part of a group that jumped together off of Crown Point. Deputies from the Multnomah County Sheriff's Office and Volunteer Firefighters and related apparatus from Corbett Rural Fire District 14 responded to the area near the bottom of Crown Point. A full emergency call out of Multnomah County Search and Rescue Team volunteers and on call Search and Rescue Coordinators was initiated in preparation for the search and rescue efforts.
Because of the proximity of the search and rescue site immediately adjacent to the main east-west rail line for the Burlington Northern-Santa Fe Railroad, all train operations along this line were stopped for searcher safety. Such a shutdown affected rail traffic as far east as Kansas City, and all along the West Coast for the duration of the incident.
Approximately 45 minutes following the first call, an anonymous caller confirmed that one member of their BASE jumping party had an equipment malfunction, had sustained very minor injuries as a result, and had already left the area not wanting any assistance. Because the caller had specific details of the overall incident, this new information was deemed credible and the mission suspended.
BASE jumping is an activity prohibited by Oregon Parks and Recreation Department in the scenic gorge recreational area. BASE jumping is prohibited due in part to the public alarm of those witnessing the activity. BASE jumpers' landings often cause them to trespass on a major railroad lines. These landings have caused injuries, fatalities, and risk to rescuers having to negotiate steep, unstable, and rugged terrain during prior BASE jumping mishaps at this site.
"People who engage in illegal or ill advised high risk outdoor activities are not thinking how their behavior will affect others." said Sheriff's Office Field Operations Lieutenant Mark Matsushima. "While there are exceptions, many of them care only about the thrills of this activity and not the possible outcome when things go wrong".
"No emergency responder, whether paid or volunteer, has an obligation to become injured or lose their life to rescue someone in a situation that person got into because of their own reckless behavior. Emergency Responders do, however, have an obligation to respond. In turn, it is the obligation to those responders of anyone who engages in high risk outdoor activities to at the very least engage in them lawfully while exercising due care and diligence to minimize rescuer risk or to aid in their own rescue."
While Lieutenant Matsushima is grateful for the second call that cancelled any further response, he wishes to remind the BASE jumpers that many emergency responders, both paid and volunteer, had already deployed and many more were prepared to put themselves at risk on the steep, unstable, and rugged terrain where the event occurred. He also advises that they would have faced several criminal charges and the interest of the Department of Homeland Security for the disruption of national rail traffic.
BASE is an acronym for these locations (Building, Antenna, Span (bridge), and Earth (cliff)) which are theoretically high enough to offer a very limited opportunity to briefly free fall and safely open a parachute. Because of the high potential for and often site history of serious injury or death, BASE jumping is prohibited at many managed sites out of liability and safety concerns.

The system that controls body temperature is not well developed in a newborn. Call your baby's doctor immediately if your baby is younger than 3 months old and has a rectal temperature of 100.4°F (38°C) or higher.
A fever is common when an adult has an infection. In newborns, fever may or may not occur with an infection. A newborn may actually have a low body temperature with an infection. He or she may also have changes in activity, feeding, or skin color.
While it is important to keep a baby from becoming chilled, a baby can also become overheated with many layers of clothing and blankets. An overheated baby may have a hot, red, or flushed face, and may be restless. To avoid overheating:
Keep your baby away from any source of heat. For example, a room heater, fireplace, heating vent, or direct sunlight.
Keep your home at about 72°F to 75°F.
Dress your baby comfortably. He or she doesn't need more clothing than you do.
Cars can get very hot. Be extra careful when dressing your baby to go for a car ride.
Newborns may not take in enough breast milk or formula. This may cause an increase in body temperature. If you think your baby isn't eating enough, either breast milk or formula, call his or her health care provider. Make sure you know how to check your baby's temperature and have a thermometer. Call your baby's health care provider right away if he or she has a fever.

"Dreams come true" Europe by joiwatani
Europe Travel Guide: 718,638 reviews and 1,959,110 photos
When I was very young I dreamt of becoming a pilot so I can travel the world. But, as time flew, that dream was slowly unreachable as I was affected by family's economic crisis, the government turmoil in the Philippines and most of all, I didn't realize that to become one you have to be a good swimmer and have great eyesight! I have poor vision and at one point, I was considered legally blind. I can't swim either. Although I was surrounded by water, I was scared to swim then. My grandparents told me there were mermaids in the ocean and they might come and get me! (Growing up I was considered "Law-law" (pronounced as Lao like Laotian. This Iluko word means always galivanting. They have to scare me so I won't be going out to the beach!)
Now, I am fulfilling those dreams! I don't have to be a pilot to travel the world!
Two times I was invited to go to Europe but everytime, I was broke.
The first opportunity I had was to present a paper to the Women's International Convention in Geneva in 1992. My co-presentor went but I wasn't able to afford it. I was a starving student at Ohio University! Instead, I presented my paper on female circumcision during the International Developments Conference in Washington, DC.
The second opportunity I had was when my daughter Shelby went to join the Romantic EF Tours. I signed up for it but then again, I was not able to afford it. So, my daughter went with her classmates.
The third time, I was able to go. And, it wasn't that especial as I thought. So, I might probably go back to Europe with my family so I can enjoy better!
My European Trip last February 2009 was okay but not that great. I was homesick with my family! It is so amazing that once you have children, your lifestyle changes. And, so with my travel lifestyle.
I used to travel by myself and now, I feel like I am empty without my children by my side. I love travelling with them although they give me so much problems! (like "Mom, I needed to pee!" or "Mom, I am hungry!", "Mom, can you please buy me this?").
Although I travelled with children in Europe, they were not my own children! These were bunch of teenagers!
I am saving some money to go back to Europe! This time, I will bring my children and my husband. We are looking forward to travelling to Norway where Erik's mother was from. We will go there and visit his family!
Also, we will travel to different countries and give myself more time to plan. We wanted to visit Switzerland, Austria, Germany, Hungary, Norway, France, Italy, Croatia, Great Britain, Scotland, Sweden, The Netherlands, etc.
- Pros:Great visit to historical places
- Cons:Not enough time and not with family
- In a nutshell:I will definitely go back to Europe and bring my family!

Just go to Radioshack and buy an adaptor. The adaptor is very small-about 3"x 2". It converts 220/240 to 110/120 vac.... more travel advice

A new round: Oklahoma City police officer, MMA fighter Matt Grice recovers after brain injury
"This ain't my first rodeo."
Those words belonged to Matthew Grice, an Oklahoma City police officer hurt so badly in a car accident last month it wasn't clear if he'd pull through.
Grice, who is also a professional mixed martial arts fighter, did.
On Sept. 8 in Shawnee, a van traveling down a highway slammed into the back of the Grice's Jeep Wrangler while he was stopped at a red light. He arrived at OU Medical Center in critical condition, with a traumatic brain injury. He had emergency surgery. Doctors were not optimistic.
Grice, the 32-year-old Ultimate Fighting Championship featherweight, has proved to be a fighter.
Weeks after his accident, his wife, Caroline, began to post updates on Facebook.
Awakened from medical sedation, he has begun to recover from his brain injury, a slow process. On Sept. 25, Caroline described how doctors placed a speaking valve in a tracheal tube.
His words were garbled and hard to understand at first.
"This ain't my first rodeo," came across.
It was a reference to an earlier accident, said his friend and manager Danny Rubenstein.
Grice grew up in Harrah, and became a four-time state champion in high school wrestling. The summer before college at the University of Oklahoma, a car accident sent him through the windshield on the passenger side.
After multiple surgeries, he recovered. At OU, he wrestled and earned a degree in sociology. He may not have met his potential as a collegiate wrestler, Rubenstein said, but "he's one of the toughest guys that's ever wrestled."
After college, Grice became an Oklahoma City police officer. He returned to competitive sport, turned professional in mixed martial arts and opened an Oklahoma City mixed martial arts gym, where he trains and teaches.
While he's passionate about fighting, his wife and two young daughters are No. 1 in his life, Rubenstein said.
Long road back
A traumatic brain injury is an injury to the brain that's more severe than a concussion and can be seen on a CT scan or MRI, said Michael Martin, a neurosurgeon at OU Medical Center and assistant professor of neurosurgery at OU. Signs of traumatic brain injury run the gamut from severe headache with nausea to a deep coma.
Recovery can be long and arduous; it can take months to years to find out where a person with traumatic brain injury will land.
On Sept. 28, Grice's wife posted that her husband was moved from intensive care to a regular patient room, a sign of improvement. He has begun speech therapy and light physical therapy. He has walked with assistance. His personality is shining through — he likes to "make fun and be ornery," his wife reported.
He also remembers people and places that signify that his long-term memory is intact.
He is in good condition at OU Medical Center.
"We knew no matter what his doctors said Matt would fight his way through this," his wife wrote. "Matt has a new fight now — working his way back to himself. Keep us in your prayers please."

I was browsing on youtube and I found these videos of local trails I go to so I figured there must be tons of other videos of trails near all the forum members go to. So post them if you can find them.
These videos were not shot by me.
This is my favorite trail, most people use the fire road to get to it(like the guys in this video but me and my buddies climb up the single track and go back down, it's more rewarding that way.
And I just discovered this trail and it's only 10 mins from my house.
it's a three part video but this only the part one. Enjoy it guys!

starring Stephen McHattie, Lisa Houle, Georgina Reilly
screenplay by Tony Burgess, based on his novel Pontypool Changes Everything
directed by Bruce McDonald
by Jefferson Robbins Few things give me the willies like the sublimation of self. The idea that my essential me-ness could someday drain away and be lost--to injury, dementia, what have you--makes me shudder. At the extreme, there's the fear that some invading force, a me supplanted by a not-me, might subjugate my personality. Little wonder that Brian O'Blivion's monologue in Videodrome about communicating with his own brain cancer, or almost any mind-control scenario scripted for comics by Grant Morrison, can set me cringing.

We stayed in the Heaton Bay for its proximity to the trail rides in the area. Close to I-70 but relatively quiet.

Nice park as others said, but be aware there is NO sign on Dillon Dam Road. You can see the sign about 100' down the road as you pass it up. There is a turn-around at the dam but it is tight for a 45' motorhome. And we were in site C-27 that is supposed to be 65' but my 45' motorhome barely fits, and the site is too narrow to fit my truck alongside the motorhome. So it is parked in overflow parking about 1/4 mile walk. - folivier

As many of their customers brace for changes under ObamaCare, U.S. drug wholesalers are in expansion mode — heading overseas and forming purchasing co-ops wherever they see fit.
This massive piece of the healthcare puzzle is home to three huge competitors. Two of those, McKesson (MCK), the largest, and No. 3 AmerisourceBergen (ABC), are expanding heavily into Europe — mainly through joint partnerships.
The No. 2 player, Cardinal Health (CAH), has also been looking for new business outside the U.S., especially in China. But on Dec. 10 it announced a partnership with CVS Caremark (CVS) to form what it claims will be the largest drug-buying venture of its kind in the U.S.
Combined, the three top drug wholesalers handle more than 80% of all drugs distributed in the U.S. They provide drugs to retail pharmacy chains, independent pharmacies, hospitals and nursing homes.
"Distributors are the most diverse players in the health-care supply chain," said analyst Eric Coldwell of Robert W. Baird & Co. "They are not reliant on specific product classes or devices. They sell across the board."
Boots, Celesio And CVS
All three top drug distributors saw shares prices soar more than 60% so far in 2013. The gains hoisted the medical-wholesale drug supply group to a top 20 ranking among IBD's 197 industry groups.
AmerisourceBergen was the first to deal in Europe. In March, it joined a partnership forged last year between Walgreen (WAG) and Alliance Boots, the Swiss firm that runs Boots, an international pharmacy chain. Not only did AmerisourceBergen get the nod to distribute pharmaceutical products to more than 8,000 Walgreen stores, it can buy generic drugs through a Walgreen-Alliance Boots global sourcing joint venture.
McKesson is following AmerisourceBergen into Europe with its planned $8.3 billion acquisition of German drug wholesaler Celesio, announced in late October. Total revenue for the combined company is expected to be more than $150 billion, up from $122 billion in the fiscal year ending in March. It'll add an estimated $1 to $1.20 a share to McKesson's earnings in the first year.
Celesio sells drugs to customers in 13 European countries and Brazil. Plus, it runs 2,200 pharmacies in six European countries, including the U.K., where its Lloyds pharmacy chain is second only to Boots.
McKesson expects to gain full control of Celesio in the fiscal year starting in April. The plan has met some resistance from New York-based hedge fund Elliott Management, which claims McKesson's offer — at around $31.55 a share — substantially undervalues Celesio. The fund owns 25% of Stuttgart-based Celesio.
In terms of big deals, Cardinal is no longer the odd man out. In the agreement announced this month, Cardinal and CVS Caremark will form a generic-drug buying operation in the U.S., to begin in July, using their combined clout to score better pricing.
The venture will source and negotiate generic supply contracts for both Cardinal and CVS. ISI analyst Ross Muken estimates their combined generic purchasing comes to about $12 billion-$14 billion a year.
He figures Cardinal alone will save $235 million-$275 million a year, adding 25-35 cents to its earnings once the combined operation is fully up to speed.
Brands Vs. Generics
Wholesalers generate more revenue from selling brand-name drugs than generics. But generics are more profitable. "With more purchasing volume, they can extract additional discounts from generic suppliers," said Adam Fein, president of Pembroke Consulting.
Pharmacies typically buy brand-name drugs from wholesalers. Smaller pharmacies also tend to buy their generic drugs from wholesalers. But larger pharmacies usually buy generic drugs directly from manufacturers. That's why small, independent pharmacies have traditionally been drug wholesalers' life blood.
AmerisourceBergen's new ties with Walgreen and Alliance Boots, and now Cardinal's with CVS change that dynamic.
"It's a big deal for AmerisourceBergen," said Fein. He says Walgreen will contribute almost $28 billion to AmerisourceBergen's revenue in fiscal 2014.
The Cardinal and CVS buying group also is viewed positively. Muken calls it "an unmitigated positive" for Cardinal, a move that put the company back "on equal footing" with its two rivals.
In the drug wholesaling business, revenue is not the main measure of success. Profits are, especially operating profits.
Coldwell expects AmerisourceBergen to show near-term EPS dilution and margin erosion from the Walgreen deal and from its recent contract win with pharmacy-benefits manager Express Scripts (ESRX), the latter of which he calls "exceptionally low-margin."
Cardinal's loss of both customers this year led to a $3.7 billion downshift in revenue. But shedding the tight-margin agreements helped expand its gross margin to more than 5% in the last quarter, Coldwell noted.
Cardinal still distributes branded drugs and some back-up generics to CVS retail stores. CVS mostly self-distributes generics.
ObamaCare, Generic Tail Winds
Wholesalers buy drugs from most manufacturers. The more customers they amass, the better they are able to leverage discounts. Analysts see ObamaCare feeding the industry's leverage as more uninsured patients gain insurance coverage and access to medicines.
New health insurance enrollees from ObamaCare could add up to 1% incremental revenue growth for drug wholesalers next year and another 3% or more in 2015, Coldwell says.
Yet, as wholesalers, drug distributors dodge the reimbursement dynamics their customers face, where revenue and profit are sensitive to changes in health plans, budgets and health-care reform, Coldwell says.
And unlike drug, biotech or medical-device firms, distributors aren't as dependent on a small number of products.
The flow of new generic drugs slowed this year following a huge wave that peaked in 2011 and 2012. "Another wave of generics is coming," said Coldwell. "We've started to see a modest recovery in generic launches and that will continue to build over the next 12 months," he said.
Brand-name drugs with sales of $73 billion will lose patent protection between 2013 and 2016, says Fein, who adds it's the last phase of the generic wave that started building five to 10 years ago, as brand-name drugs lost protection.
Among the many brand names going off patent next year are the MS drug Copaxone, acid-reflex drug Nexium and sleep aid Lunesta.
Inflation Plus Purchasing Power
Then there's the specialty-drug revolution that will keep drug distributors busy and profitable, analysts say. The drug industry is shifting from traditional, pill-based medicines for large patient populations to high-priced specialty therapies targeted to rare diseases and small patient populations.
"Wholesalers are a key part of the channel for specialty drugs administered by hospitals and outpatient departments and they have also started new specialty distribution businesses that target physician offices and clinics," Fein said.
The drugs, usually biologic in origin, often need special handling. This means higher profit margins for wholesalers dealing with them.
Mergers and acquisitions will also keep fueling wholesalers' growth, analysts say, along the lines of McKesson's $2 billion buy of PSS World Medical and Cardinal's $2 billion takeover of home-care products distributor AssuraMed earlier this year.
Cardinal has completed a number of small to midsize acquisitions of U.S. distributors, and has followed a similar course in China. Cardinal's China revenue jumped 29% in the last quarter over the earlier year, but Deutsche Bank analysts estimate that it accounts for just 2% of total revenue.
Analysts were not surprised by the latest deal from Cardinal and CVS. Prior to the announcement, Deutsche Bank analysts estimated that the McKesson-Celesio combination would give McKesson twice the generic purchasing volume of Cardinal while the AmerisourceBergen and Walgreen-Alliance Boots partnership has two-and-a-half times the purchasing volume.
Meanwhile, generic drugs are fetching slightly higher prices vs. the previous deflationary pricing environment. But even with deflation, distributors are able to wrangle profits through negotiations with manufacturers.
"Now they have negotiation power plus inflation," Coldwell said, adding that generic prices are up in the low single digits. "We think (price inflation) will be viable well into 2014 if not beyond."

by teh eng hock at the selangor state assembly
SHAH ALAM: The state assembly has approved a RM413mil loan to its investment arm Kumpulan Darul Ehsan Bhd (KDEB) to enable it to buy a 100% stake in developer Kumpulan Hartanah Selangor Bhd (KHSB).
Mentri Besar Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim said the mortgage-free loan, with an interest of 4%, would have to be repaid to the state government within a year.
Following the takeover, KDEB would issue bonds through commercial banks to repay the loan, said Khalid.
KDEB's subsidiary Kumpulan Perangsang Selangor Bhd (KPSB) holds 56.67% of KHSB.
On April 29, KHSB said in a note to Bursa Malaysia, that KDEB had offered to purchase 254.56 million ordinary shares of RM1 each in KHSB under the takeover offer.
"The KDEB management feels that KHSB's assets are not well-managed, and with 100% ownership, this can be restructured," he said.
Khalid said KHSB has a land bank of over 2,800ha, with a gross development value of RM6bil.
He labelled the loan as a "bridging finance", which would help KDEB secure future loans from banks at better rates.
"The 4% interest is higher than the interest we would get by parking the money in a fixed deposit (account).
"We can charge according to the base lending rate of 6.5%, but we want to show we have confidence in KDEB, so that in future, if KDEB needs a bank loan, the interest rate would only be slightly higher than the rate we charged," he said.
He said KHSB's assets would be liquidated if the loan was not repaid within a year.
The loan is part of a RM761mil supplementary allocation passed by the state assembly on Friday.
Loans of RM80mil and RM24mil would also be given to Selangor State Development Corporation (PKNS) and Subang Jaya Municipal Council (MPSJ) respectively, while RM105mil was allocated to the state government's 20 cubic metres of free water programme for the period between May and December this year.

Tibetans in Nepal also write an appeal in blood to foreign governments.
Nepalese riot police arrest Tibetan protesters near the Jwalakhel Refugee Camp in Kathmandu, Nov 1, 2011. AFP
Authorities in Nepal have stepped up a crackdown on Tibetan refugees after one of them, a woman in her 30's, attempted to burn herself on Wednesday to protest Chinese rule in Tibet.
The woman, who was not identified, poured kerosene over her body and was about to set fire to herself when her colleagues intervened during a protest rally at the Jawalakhel Tibetan settlement in Nepal's capital Kathmandu.
At the rally organized as part of a three-day campaign to raise global awareness on alleged human rights abuses in Tibet, the refugees wrote an appeal letter in blood to foreign governments on the "desperate" situation in the region, participants said.
Nine Tibetan monks and one nun have self-immolated so far this year in Tibetan-populated areas in China in protest against Chinese rule following a crackdown on monasteries, harassment of monks, and other alleged rights abuses.
"To recognize the intensity of the sacrifice by one nun and [nine] monks in Tibet, we wrote an appeal with our own blood. We are going to present this appeal to all the embassies and other international organizations and everywhere," said Nima, the vice-president of the Kathmandu regional Tibetan Youth Congress.
"One Tibetan woman attempted to kill herself by throwing kerosene on herself, but others intervened and stopped her from burning herself," Nima said.
Lobsang Sangay, the head of Tibet's exile government in India, told RFA on Tuesday that he has called on foreign governments and international organizations to send teams to investigate conditions in Tibet.
Appeals have also been sent to more than 20 world leaders to influence the Chinese leadership to resume dialogue with Tibetan leaders, he said.
Taken away from homes
Nima said that the attempted self-immolation incident has triggered a stepped-up crackdown by the Nepalese police.
The Nepalese authorities are targeting Tibetans in the Jawalakhel settlement, taking them away from their houses, eyewitnesses said.
"On Tuesday, Nepalese police detained 60 Tibetans, and again on Wednesday another 18 Tibetans were detained. However they were released later in the evenings of the day of their arrests," one eyewitness said.
Nepal, home to around 20,000 Tibetan refugees, is under increasing pressure from Beijing to rein in the exiles.
The Nepal authorities have also been advised by the Chinese authorities against allowing any "anti-China activity" by Tibetans living in the country.
Many of the refugees arrived in Nepal following a failed 1959 Tibetan uprising against Chinese rule in which thousands fled south across the Himalayas.
Many still flee Tibet each year, hoping to transit Nepal to India, home of Tibet's exiled spiritual leader the Dalai Lama and seat of the Tibetan government-in-exile.

The starting XV picked by coach Robbie Deans features three debutants in full-back Israel Folau, flanker Ben Mowen and inside centre Christian Lealiifano.
Folau is competing in his first season in professional rugby union, having already represented Australia at rugby league and played in the AFL.
Folau has been in stunning form at full-back for the NSW Waratahs, but has been chosen on the right wing by the Wallabies with Digby Ioane, who has recovered from knee surgery, lining up on the opposite flank.
With Beale deemed not ready to start against the Lions following his return from alcohol-related problems, Deans has opted for O'Connor at fly-half with Berrick Barnes taking the number 15 jersey. It will be only the second time O'Connor has played a Test at 10, with the other appearance taking place alongside Will Genia against Wales in 2011.
Scrum-half Genia and the selection of Adam Ashley-Cooper were the two certainties in the Wallaby backline, with the presence of Lealiifano one of the main talking points in the build up to the team announcement.
The 25-year-old playmaker also features at fly-half for the ACT Brumbies and has edged the more defensive Pat McCabe to form a centre partnership with Ashley-Cooper.
Lealiifano's inclusion indicates the Wallabies are seeking to play a more expansive game against the Lions.

UV exposure and PCB Etching solution
by jarzebski.pl:
Quite by accident I came across a long time ago for the film on YouTube, which focuses on domestic production of PCBs. Personally, I am convinced that it is better to perform the PCB in a professional company – you know: aesthetics, two-sided layout, descriptions, soldermask, tin holes etc. However, for small, home projects, not specifically that I require. Let us not forget that it comes to this the cost of a few dozen gold and długaśny timeout. So I decided to make myself the right tools to perform such fototransferu tiling method, ie UV platesetters and wytrawiarki PCBs.

Bad timing
Last night proved to be especially chaotic in our house. We were eating dinner when the phone rang. We rarely answer our phone, especially in the evening, afraid that it's a poll for this, that or the other thing or Qwest asking us to upgrade our service, etc. So we let it roll over to the answering machine and it turned out to be a friend of Jody's (he was an usher in our wedding) that he hadn't talked to in over a year. So Jody ran upstairs and got the phone and proceeded to have a loooong ol' conversation with his buddy. In theRead More →

" I was astonished at how quiet this hotel was, especially given that it's in a city and right upstairs from a café. (A pretty good café, too, and very convenient for breakfast.) I mean, I've been in libraries that were noisier than my room--no traffic noise, nothing. I also found the staff extremely friendly and welcoming, though this was a pattern I noticed throughout France so maybe it's just a French thing. "- Anonymous

"Don't trade houses or spouses."
That's one piece of financial advice I've heard over the years that I think will stick with me until I go home. It's just plain catchy. The speaker's meaning: If you want to stay out of debt and remain financially sound in your life, don't do the two things that will crush you financially: divorce and constantly "trading up" on houses.
Stick with your house, he told us, because the transfer costs of buying and selling homes (realtors, mortgage fees, amortization, etc.) will drain you.
For many of us, though, it's not a question of trading up on homes, but whether we should buy a home in the first place. Buy or rent? Which is better?
Well, there's a handy graph in a recent New York Times Business section. It compares the costs of renting versus buying equivalent homes.
The magic number? 7 years.
If you stay in your home for 7 years, buying is better. It will cost you $5,314 less than renting, an average savings of $759 each year.
However, if you stay in the home for less than seven years, it would have been better to rent.
Now, there are lots of assumptions in the article (a 1% increase in home value each year, a 3% increase in rent each year, etc.), including the fact that they are comparing equivalent homes. That's important because my experience has been that most of us don't move from renting a three-bedroom to buying a three-bedroom. Instead, we're probably renting something smaller (an apartment, a condo), so our rent costs are probably lower than the Times comparison.
And, it's taking into account averages. I have owned three homes so far. I wasn't in either of the first two for more than five years, but made money on both. That had a lot to do, though, with a lucky break in housing prices and employer moving benefits. Had I left this house before five years and born the transfer costs myself, I would have been under, no doubt.
So, if you're considering buying a house because you are "tired of throwing away money on rent." Check out the graph. You may not be throwing money away. And check out some Boundless articles on House-Buying 101 and Home-Buying Mistakes to avoid.

Modern Citizenship
On 30 May 2008 the Sydney Writers' Festival Session "Modern Citizenship" brought together Lucinda Holdforth, author of Why Manners Matter, University of Western Sydney academic James Arvanitakis and the Australian Youth Climate Coalition's Anna Rose to talk about the notion of citizenship in the contemporary world. In this lively and entertaining session, the three discuss our obligations and responsibilities as citizens, from not watering your driveway during restrictions, to giving way in traffic.

Impact Wrestling taping again
Now that they have secured a new television deal with POP TV, TNA officials have put plans in place to start filming more episodes of Impact Wrestling. Management has officially announced that Bethlehem, Pennsylvania will be the location for their new filming. The shows will take place in the beginning of January, so Dixie Carter is more than likely going to sign more performers before then.

The Amazing Spider-Man is the story of Peter Parker (Garfield), an outcast high schooler who was abandoned by his parents as a boy, leaving him to be raised by his Uncle Ben (Sheen) and Aunt May (Field). Like most teenagers, Peter is trying to figure out who he is and how he got to be the person he is today. Peter is also finding his way with his first high school crush, Gwen Stacy (Stone), and together, they struggle with love, commitment, and secrets. As Peter discovers a mysterious briefcase that belonged to his father, he begins a quest to understand his parents' disappearance – leading him directly to Oscorp and the lab of Dr. Curt Connors (Ifans), his father's former partner. As Spider-Man is set on a collision course with Connors' alter-ego, The Lizard, Peter will make life-altering choices to use his powers and shape his destiny to become a hero.

Fatherhood in Six WordsMadeline Holler
Blogging for Charm City Moms, dad Joe Burris wants fathers to weigh in on parenting.
But he wants dads to keep it short. Like, six words short. Just boil the experience down to its essence.
Here's what he came up with:
On most days, the six words that come to mind are the old Peace Corps motto: "The toughest job you'll ever love."
Often, at the end of a day, all I can think of is: "Time to go to bed, Sweetie."
Then there are times when one of my daughters will plop in my lap, put her head on my shoulder and give me a hug.
I think of all the things I've asked God for, and look down at her.
"This is surely God's greatest answer."
My daughter would have to be asleep to move my husband to such a deeply metaphysical sentiment. Instead, this is what he gave me:
"Exhaustion, laughter, confusion, sweet, constant second-guessing." (I interrupted the new John Madden and put him on the spot — cut him some slack.)
Dads, give it to us in six. Non-dads, feel free to elicit a response or, you know, make one up on Dad's behalf. Ahhh, screw it. Moms — give us motherhood in six if you're feeling it. For me, right now, it's something like "Never knew I was so clueless."

Artist Suzanne Woolcott and husband Grant have come together to bring you the Gorjuss Range of products including stationery, fashion bags and accessories, all featuring the adorable Gorjuss girls. Already available in over 40 countries around the world, Gorjuss is a brand loved by girls and ladies of all ages, with some fans having had Gorjuss designs tattooed on their bodies!
The inspiration of Suzanne Woolcott's art started from her love of portraits and the way it can capture a moment. In Suzanne's view everything that is within the portrait has a meaning, a purpose that adds to the overall message that the artist is trying to portray. All of the Gorjuss girls featured in Suzanne's paintings are undeniably cute, yet none of them have facial features or expressions. The reason for this deliberate artistic decision is so that the meaning of the painting is not seen in the character of the featured girl, but rather we are obligated to look at all the other aspects of the portrait to understand the emotions the artist tried to convey. We hope that amongst our collection of Gorjuss collectable dolls, bags, notebooks, arts and crafts accessories, coasters and many other fabulous gifts featuring Suzanne's Gorjuss designs you'll find something close to your heart and a perfect gift to share with someone special.
