Stowaway Chinese Kitten Survives Long Trip to U.S., Sparks Jealousy Online
Well hello there.
China's Internet users are cracking wise over the story of a Chinese stowaway nabbed in Los Angeles last week having survived a grueling 6,500-mile journey in a shipping container from Shanghai without food or water.
The stowaway in question: a three-month old kitten.
The kitten, discovered after the shipping container was delivered to a business in the city of Compton, was promptly put into quarantine by Los Angeles County animal control officers, according the Associated Press.
Workers at the Carson Animal Care Center, where the orange-and-white kitten is being kept, have named him "Ni Hao," which means "hello" in Mandarin, AP reports.
While it remains unclear how Ni Hao came to be trapped inside the container, users of Sina Corp.'s Weibo microblogging service seemed to almost universally approve of his having made the journey.
"Cats in China have too much experience being tortured or eaten," wrote one user. "After such a trying experience this kitten was able to defect to the free world. Kudos."
To be sure, some had misgivings about Ni Hao's new life as an illegal immigrant, including worries about how the kitten would deal with the language barrier.
But with increasing numbers of wealthy Chinese applying for the U.S. investor immigration program — a trend experts attribute to anxieties over political turmoil and economic slowdown — many commenters appeared to be jealous of their feline compatriot. "Even a three-month old kitten knows it's best to run abroad," joked one user. China Real Time has more.

New Trojan.Badminer Malware Steals Your Spare Processing Cycles To Make Criminals Money At Your Expense
Subject: General Tech | August 18, 2011 - 03:02 AM | Tim Verry
Tagged: trojan, opencl, mining, Malware, gpgpu, bitcoin
A new piece of malware was recently uncovered by anti-virus provider Symantec that seeks to profit from your spare computing cycles. Dubbed Trojan.Badminer, this insidious piece of code is a trojan that (so far) is capable of affecting Windows operating systems from Windows 98 to Windows 7. Once this trojan has been downloaded and executed (usually through an online attack vector via an unpatched bug in flash or java), it proceeds to create a number of files and registry entries.
It's a trojan infected bitcoin, oh the audacity of malware authors!
After it has propagated throughout the system, it is then able to run one of two mining programs. It will first search for a compatible graphics card, and run Phoenix Miner. However, if a graphics card is not found, it will fall back to RPC miner and instead steal your CPU cycles. The miners then start hashing in search of bitcoin blocks, and if found, will then send the reward money to the attacker's account.
It should be noted that bitcoin mining itself is not inherently bad, and many people run it legitimately. In fact, if you are interested in learning more about bitcoins, we ran an article on them recently. This trojan on the other hand is malicious because it is infecting the user's computer with unwanted code that steals processing cycles from the GPU and CPU to make the attacker money. All these GPU and CPU cycles come at the cost of reduced system responsiveness and electricity, which can add up to a rather large bill, depending on where you live and what hardware the trojan is able to get its hands on.
Right now, Symantec is offering up general tips on keeping users' computers free from the infection, including enabling a software firewall (or at least being behind a router with its own firewall that blocks unsolicited incoming connections), running the computer as the lowest level user possible with UAC turned on, and not clicking on unsolicited email attachments or links.
If you are also a bitcoin miner, you may want to further protect yourself by securing your bitcoin wallet in the event that you also accidentally become infected by a trojan that seeks to steal the wallet.dat file (the file that essentially holds all your bitcoin currency).
Stay vigilant folks, and keep an eye out on your system GPU and CPU utilization in addion to using safer computing habits to keep nastly malware like this off of your system. On a more opinionated note, is it just me or have malware authors really hit a new low with this one?
Developer Watch: CUVI 0.5 released
Subject: Editorial, General Tech, Graphics Cards | July 27, 2011 - 12:39 AM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: gpgpu, Developer Watch, CUVI
Code that can be easily parallelized into many threads have been streaming over to the GPU with many applications and helper libraries taking advantage of CUDA and OpenCL primarily. Thus for developers who wish to utilize the GPU more but are unsure where to start there are more and more options for libraries of functions to call and at least partially embrace their video cards. OpenCV is a library of functions for image manipulation and, while GPU support is ongoing through CUDA, primarily runs on the CPU. CUVIlib, which has just launched their 0.5 release, is a competitor to OpenCV with a strong focus on GPU utilization, performance, and ease of implementation. While OpenCV is licensed as BSD which is about as permissive a license as can be offered, CUVI is not and is based on a proprietary EULA.

Benchmark KLT - OpenCV from TunaCode on Vimeo.
The little plus signs are the computer tracking motion. CUVI (top; 33fps), OpenCV (bottom; 2.5fps)
(Video from CUVIlib)
Despite the proprietary and non-free for commercial use nature of CUVI they advertise large speedups for certain algorithms. For their Kanade-Lucas-Tomasi Feature Tracker algorithm when compared with OpenCV's implementation they report a three-fold increase in performance with just a GeForce 9800GT installed and 8-13x faster when using a high end computing card such as the Tesla C2050. Their feature page includes footage of two 720p high definition videos undergoing the KLT algorithm with the OpenCV CPU method chugging at 2.5 fps contrasted with CUVI's GPU-accelerated 33fps. Whether you would prefer to side with OpenCV's GPU advancements or pay CUVIlib to augment what OpenCV is not good enough for your needs at is up to you, but either future will likely involve the GPU.

Wish you CUDA had a GPGPU C++ template? Now you can!
Subject: General Tech, Graphics Cards | June 30, 2011 - 12:58 AM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: gpgpu, CUDA
If you have seen our various news articles regarding how a GPU can be useful in many ways, and you are a developer yourself, you may be wondering how to get in on that action. Recently Microsoft showed off their competitor to OpenCL known as C++ AMP and AMD showed off some new tools designed to help developers of OpenCL. Everything was dead silent on the CUDA front at the AMD Fusion Developer Summit, as expected, but that does not mean that no-one is helping people who do not mind being tied in to NVIDIA. An open-sourced project has been created to generate template file for programmers wishing to do some of their computation in CUDA and wish a helping hand setting up the framework.
You may think the videocard is backwards, but clearly its DVI heads are in front.
The project was started by Pavel Kartashev and is a Java application that accepts form input and generates CUDA code to be imported into your project. The application will help you generate the tedious skeleton code for defining variables and efficiently using the GPU architecture leaving you to program the actual process to be accomplished itself. The author apparently plans to create a Web-based version which should be quite easy with the Java-based nature of his application. Personally I would find myself more interested in the local application or a widget to leaving my web browser windows to reference material. That said, I am sure that someone would like this tool in their web browser, possibly more people than are like-minded with me.
KGPU lets the Linux kernel harness your GPU's power
Subject: General Tech, Graphics Cards | May 6, 2011 - 09:25 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: linux, kgpu, gpgpu
PC Per has discussed using the GPU as a massively-parallel augment to the CPU for a very long time to allow the latter to focus on the branching logic ("if/then/else") and other processes it is good at that GPUs are not. AMD and Intel both have their attempts to bundle the benefits of a GPU on to their CPU parts with their respective technologies. Currently most of the applications outside of the scientific community are gaming and multimedia; however, as the presence of stronger GPUs saturates, we are seeing more and more functions relegate to the GPU.
So happy together!
KGPU is an attempt to bring the horsepower of the GPU to the fingertips of the Linux kernel. While the kernel itself will remain a CPU function, the attempt allows the kernel to offload the parallel stuff to the GPU for large speed-ups and keep the CPU free for more. Their current version shows whole multiple speedups of eCryptfs, an encrypted filesystem, in terms of maximum read and write bandwidth by allowing the GPU to deal with the AES cipher.
We should continue to see speedups as tasks that would be perfect for the GPU are finally allowed to be with their true love. Furthermore, as the number of tasks relegated to the GPU increases we should continue to see more and stronger GPUs embedded in PCs which should decrease the fears for PC game developers worried about the number of PCs capable of running their applications. I am sure that is great news to many of our frequent readers.

Skip to comments.Army shakeups clear path for Rumsfeld's vision
Posted on 04/28/2003 3:44:24 PM PDT by demlosers
WASHINGTON The shakeup came suddenly. Late Friday, Secretary of the Army Thomas E. White abruptly resigned without explanation after a meeting with Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld and his deputy, Paul Wolfowitz.
White's departure and the coming retirements of Army Chief of Staff Gen. Eric K. Shinseki and Vice Chief of Staff Gen. John Keane will clear the way for Rumsfeld to install his own handpicked Army leaders and put his stamp on the Army's force structure, doctrine and training.
Pentagon officials told Knight Ridder that Rumsfeld plans to offer the Army chief of staff job to Gen. Tommy Franks, the tall Texan who commands U.S. Central Command and led coalition forces to swift victory in Iraq. If Franks accepts the job, Rumsfeld would replace him at Central Command with Army Lt. Gen. John Abizaid, Franks' highly regarded, Arabic-speaking deputy.
The officials said Rumsfeld has not yet asked Franks if he would accept the chief of staff job.
From the day he arrived in the Pentagon, Rumsfeld has been at war with the Army's top generals veterans of combat in Vietnam, Grenada, Panama, Mogadishu, Haiti, Bosnia, Afghanistan and Iraq, and with some of the top leadership of the other services, as well. Navy Secretary Gordon England has left to become deputy secretary of homeland security, and Air Force secretary James Roche has also had a number of bruising encounters with Rumsfeld, who Pentagon officials said has a habit of publicly ridiculing those who disagree with him.
Rumsfeld's relations with White, a retired Army brigadier general who had a second career as an executive in now-bankrupt Enron Corp., were strained last year when Rumsfeld decreed that the Army's $11 billion Crusader artillery system would be killed, and White and other Army leaders were accused of lobbying Congress to overturn their boss's decision.
Relations between Rumsfeld and the Army became even frostier in late February, when senators pressed Shinseki at a hearing to estimate how many soldiers he thought it would take to secure the peace in postwar Iraq. Shinseki reluctantly testified that he thought it might require "several hundred thousand," based on his experience as commander of peacekeeping forces in Bosnia. Rumsfeld and Wolfowitz publicly called that estimate grossly exaggerated.
When White was asked about Shinseki's estimates, he cited the general's experience in such matters. Published reports at the time said Rumsfeld wanted to fire White on the spot for supporting the Army chief of staff.
Rumsfeld and his spokeswoman, Victoria Clarke, could not be reached for comment.
Rumsfeld has made it plain that he considers the Army's senior leaders cold war dinosaurs unable to adapt to a 21st Century environment and thinks the Army is too big, too heavy and too slow to respond to rapid developments abroad.
Nearly two years ago, the defense secretary's civilian aides tried to table a plan to take two more divisions and a corps out of the Army, which already had been reduced to 480,000 soldiers by a decade of manpower cuts. Shinseki successfully argued that it would be foolish to take the Army below 400,000 men and women, even as he continued to promote transforming the Army into a lighter, more agile force.
Senior military officials said that Shinseki began remaking the Army a year before the Bush administration took office. He ordered the creation of six rapidly deployable brigades equipped with the Stryker wheeled fighting vehicle. At the time, the Stryker wasn't even on the drawing boards. The Army streamlined its acquisition process and fielded the first Strykers for testing in just over two years.
One retired Army general charged that Rumsfeld and his aides "have made the Army a second-class citizen, denigrating its chief in public and ignoring the counsel of uniformed leadership."
The general, who asked that he not be identified, said he feared that Rumsfeld, once he has appointed his own selections to Army leadership posts, will renew his attempt to take the Army down by two or possibly even four divisions, along with similar cuts in the Army National Guard.
Another retired Army general said, "I fear that we will dismantle the Army based on ideology and then, 10 years from now, lose a war against the North Koreans or someone else who can fight." He also spoke on the condition of anonymity.
Rumsfeld and his civilian aides believe that Afghanistan and Iraq are the models for all future conflicts: The Air Force and Special Operations forces can defeat the enemy with rapid action and precision munitions, leaving the Army to police and secure the ground. In this view, there's little or no need for heavy M1 Abrams tanks, heavy artillery and other forces that are hard to transport quickly.
"He would move the Army away from war fighting," one retired general said. "His is clearly a vision of transformation that ignores the lessons of history."
The Air Force and the Marine Corps, the general added, also have tried to marginalize Army leaders and persuade Rumsfeld that the Army is now a supporting service and no longer the centerpiece of land warfare.
Both active duty and retired officers also charge that Rumsfeld has imposed an unprecedented degree of civilian control over the military services' selection of flag officers, generals and admirals. Military officials said Rumsfeld has demanded that all the services send up the names of at least two or three candidates for every promotion to three- and four-star rank and all nominations to the Joint Staff. The candidates are personally interviewed by a Rumsfeld staffer and by the vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs, Marine Gen. Peter Pace.
Secretaries of defense traditionally have had the prerogative to nominate four-star generals and admirals, but have left the selection of one-, two- and three-star officers to each service's normal selection and promotion procedures.
"This is an incredibly dangerous politicizing of the flag officers," one retired general said. "It's Rumsfeld's way or the highway, but what if he is wrong?"
White House officials privately said Rumsfeld isn't loved there, either. They cite his arrogance and propensity for saying whatever he thinks in public. But one well-placed official, speaking on the condition of anonymity, said Rumsfeld's poll numbers were "too high to get rid of him now." With an approval rating of 71 percent, Rumsfeld's numbers are better than President Bush's.
Retired and serving general officers, not just those in the Army, say that not since Robert S. McNamara was secretary of defense has there been so determined an effort to isolate and marginalize the military's uniformed leaders. McNamara took the United States into the quagmire that was the Vietnam War over the objection of some of his top generals.
The selection of a successor to Shinseki as Army chief of staff has been up in the air for months. Eighteen months ago, Rumsfeld's office leaked word that the Army vice chief, Shinseki's deputy, Keane, had been chosen to succeed Shinseki. It was said that Rumsfeld hoped that by making Shinseki a lame duck long before his four-year term was due to expire, he would force Shinseki to resign. Shinseki, a West Point graduate who has served 38 years on active duty and lost a foot in Vietnam, didn't budge.
Now that Shinseki's term is ending, Rumsfeld's office has leaked word that Keane would not be taking the top job.
Military officials told Knight Ridder that Rumsfeld has considered only two of the 11 serving four-star Army generals, Franks and Forces Command commander Gen. Larry Ellis, to succeed Shinseki. Lt. Gen. Richard Cody, now the Army deputy chief for operations, has been mentioned as a replacement for Keane in the vice chief's job.
If the General's busy, his wife can chair the meetings.
I can't agree with Rumsfeld here, if he wants to do this. If we ever get into a hard fight, we're gonna need those heavy divisions. We are not at that point yet were we can discard our Main Battle Tanks -- are technology is not as yet, a Star Trek advantage.
The think about the crusdar where the sam hill do cross a bridge with a 90 ton beast and 110 ammo carrier.
What if he is right?
In fact, it might be worthwhile for someone to check Janes (I don't have a copy) on the military capacities of Russia today vs. Iraq in 1991. I bet there isn't too much difference in armor capability, especially if one compares, say, "west front" Russian capability to Iraq total.
Ouch! Whatever became of that investigation?
Again, stop with this raising straw men. Read my first sentence. No one is doing away with tanks. There is tremendous sense, though, in reducing the number of tanks in the OVERALL force mix, especially if scarce resources mean that we get more TRANSPORTS for the tanks we have.
The 4th ID is the best proof yet of what I am suggesting. We didn't even need its most advanced tanks---and they never got into battle, because of air/sea-lift problems via Turkey.
BTW, the Brits have developed (you'll hate this) a plastic tank that can sustain heavy mm. direct gun hits at range. It is something like 1/3 the weight of an Abrams. Now, there is a gun issu---it needs a heavier gun---but still the potential for the armor is enormous.
Yes, no shortage at the moment; but what will the world look like in 2025? Will we have a rival that can challenge us? I'd like us to error on the side of caution. We can have mixed forces of light and fast along with some heavy backup if need be.
That's interesting, do you have any links to this new type of armor? Does it have better stopping power than the M1's DU armor? It seems like, given about ten more years, it might be possible to build a new MBT with molecular armor. No weapon on this planet could penetrate it, except maybe a direct nuke hit.
Second, all the lift in the word doesn't mean squat if you have nothing to lift. I am not convinced that the post-USSR Russia has even a FRACTION of the combat ability that the Soviets had.
Third, forward bases are a blessing and a curse. We saw in Turkey that a "forward base" didn't mean squat. The advantages of forward bases are frequently offset by the political "strings" required to maintain them. Do I favor losing the ones we have? Of course not. But I do think that the 21st century wars are going to be faster than ever, and likely will allow us LESS time, not more, to work things out with our fine "allies."
No one is talking about getting rid of tanks, just reducing their numbers per unit. They will be replaced with faster, easier to maintain vehicles that can kill tanks from twice the distance that tanks can shoot. Most of the tanks from Gulf II were killed by air power, and the rest were crushed by our ground forces from extreme standoff range. All this was supported by C4I so advanced that it seemed like the Iraqis were moving in slow motion.
Only a handful of militaries on the planet could have done better than Iraq, and for them, we've got several other divisions ready. The old adage 'quantity has a quality all its own' just isn't true anymore. All it does is let our guys rack up more kills.
I'm a fairly recent convert, but I've seen the light on this one. We are well advised to keep marching down the road to transformation. If we sit still, they will catch up, and we can afford to keep moving forward.
Yeah, I've heard/read of it somewhere....probably here on FR.
Not really true in every respect. The Russian T-34 had diesel. It was much better in the snow and mud. The German tank was better manned, commanded, and late in the war was better gunned.
Ask the Marines, whose towed artillery seemed to have worked fairly well. But then again the Marines learn gunnery.
Just one problem. If the enemy has rocket propelled grenades, the Standard configuration Stryker cannot handle a hit from the RPG. If you add armor to make it immune to the RPG, it won't fit on a C-130.
Plus, it has turned into a pig as it has progressed. The M-113 tests out better than the current stryker in almost every respect.
We need to be able to transport troops thru RPG territory. The Stryker can't do it.
I love Rumsfeld, and the prosecution of this war has been maasterful. But I agree with your take. We need to be building a leaner more agile force, but this should not mean eliminating our strategic depth, so to speak.
We were able to smash Iraq, with minimal loss of life on our side, because we train and prepare to fight a much stronger enemy. If we were designing our force for an economical execution of a confrontation with a mid-sized force such as Iraq's, we could do this with a much smaller force, but with perhaps much less margin for error.
If we determine to separate Colombia from the clutches of the FARC, or topple Chavez, we aren't going to need a million infantrymen. We will need a few thousand Special Forces, and some good intel, and perhaps some well directed bribery. The Iraq model works.
But if our next war involves separating Uzbekistan from the Chinese Army, and two or three other simultaneous conflagrations, we might wish we had a little more depth to draw on.
But one thing the Iraq model must teach us; you must control the sky. If your enemy gets control of the air, the infantryman without air cover is a soon-to-be-dead-man.

No injuries reported from Brattleboro-area crashesNovember 23,2012No injuries in Brattleboro crashes
Troopers from the Brattleboro barracks of the Vermont State Police investigated a few crashes on Thursday but reported no serious injuries.
Senior Trooper Genevra Cushman said a crash on Route 9 near the intersection with MacArthur Road in Marlboro around 10:15 a.m. sent a man to the hospital.
Police said Patrick Perrotti, 68, of Wilmington, was traveling west on Route 9 when he lost control of his 1993 Toyota truck on black ice. Perrottis truck collided with the drivers side of a 2007 Chevrolet HHR, driven by Thomas Albercio, 51, of Brattleboro, who was also traveling west on Route 9.
The Toyota truck then entered the oncoming lane where it collided with a 2012 Toyota Sienna, driven by Jeffrey Salmon, 45, of Rexford, N.Y., who was traveling east on Route 9.
The truck and the Sienna were towed from the scene but the HHR was able to be driven away.
Perrotti was taken to Brattleboro Memorial Hospital to be treated for a laceration of the ear, Cushman said.
The Marlboro Fire Department assisted at the scene.
In Brattleboro, a 3-year-old child was in a car with his parents when it crashed but none of the family members were injured. Trooper James Matthews said the crash took place around 2 p.m. on Exit 3 of Interstate 91.
According to Matthews, Christopher Bellemare, 34, of Naugatuck, Conn., lost control of the 2002 Ford Excursion he was driving while on the northbound off-ramp of the highway, resulting in a roll over crash.

So what are we supposed to make of all the smiles in these advance photos from Sunday's episode of "Mad Men"?
Is everyone at the newly named SD&P agency suddenly in a good mood? Or is this just a clever way of AMC hiding something terrible to come? Either way, we can't help but notice Don isn't smiling.

Monday morning, the commissioners unanimously approved a resolution to include two new voting districts.
Lowndes County Commissioner Joyce Evans says by increasing the number of commissioners from three to five will give those areas better representation, something she says she's proud about.
"Well, I am excited about the expansion. I sure hope that it goes through with no problems and I am sure all the new commissioners coming in, we are excited to know we will have new commissioners joining us maybe in the next two years," said Evans.
Lowndes County says there are more than 100,000 residents in the area.
Each commissioner currently represents more than 35,000 people.
The resolution will become final if the Georgia Assembly votes in favor of it during the 2011 legislative session..

Tulsa mayor gives CPR to man in restaurant
The Tulsa World reports that one day after administering CPR to a man at a downtown restaurant, Mayor Dewey Bartlett encouraged city councilors and citizens alike on Thursday to learn the life-saving technique.
"I think it is very important that we really realize that we owe it to not only ourselves and to our families but to our fellow Tulsans that we take advantage of the great training that is available at the Red Cross, …" Bartlett said, "because you never know when you might be that person lying flat on your back, looking up, hoping that somebody that is looking down at you knows CPR."
Bartlett told councilors during their Thursday night meeting that the man had had a heart attack and later died at a hospital.

Now Cold Steel is pleased to offer you our battle ready version of this famous sword. Like the originals we have studied, and the trainers our President Lynn C Thompson spars with, it offers a long wide blade with fully sharpened edges and a very useful point. To insure it's light enough to be easily wielded with one hand we have also added a single broad fuller in the center of the blade that serves to reduce weight, improve balance and add the stiffness needed to withstand heavy blows. The hilt of our Norman Sword is also reminiscent of many surviving originals with upturned, spatulated quillions, leather-over-wood grip, and a modified "cocked hat" pommel. This pommel shape was specially chosen because it allows more room for the hand, while counter balancing the blade.

Lebanon Shiite clan says it abducted more Syrians
BEIRUT A powerful Shiite Muslim clan in Lebanon claimed Thursday to have captured more Syrian nationals in retaliation for the seizure of a family member by rebels in Syria this week.
Later in the day, the clan said it was calling off "military operations" and would halt abductions for now.
The abductions have raised concerns that Syria's civil war is spilling over into neighboring Lebanon, where deep rivalries have already erupted into deadly violence. Lebanon has its own bitter history of a 15-year civil war, an explosive sectarian mix and deep divisions between pro- and anti-Syrian factions - many of them armed.
In the U.S., State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland called on all sides in Lebanon to exercise restraint.
"We are deeply concerned about spillover from the Syrian crisis that could impact on the stability, on the sovereignty of Lebanon. And we fully condemn kidnapping as a tactic, obviously, " said.
"We welcome efforts by Lebanese leaders and security forces to try to calm the situation. ... This kind of violence that we've seen in Lebanon, violence we've seen with regard to Lebanese citizens is further to the damage that Assad is wreaking not only on his own country, but potentially on the neighborhood with his violence."
Already, the abductions have brought gunmen from both the Shiite and Sunni communities into the streets. On Wednesday, Shiite supporters of the al-Mikdad clan went on a rampage in a Beirut neighborhood, vandalizing dozens of Syrian-run stores. They blocked the road to the airport, setting tires on fire and wandering the road with guns. Travelers were forced to walk from their cars to the airport, and at least one flight was cancelled. The road only reopened early Thursday morning.
The tensions erupted again Thursday in the eastern Bekaa Valley, near the Syrian border. Masked men believed to be from the Bekaa town of Majdal Anjar - a Sunni stronghold - burned tires and set up roadblocks on the main highway leading to the Masnaa border crossing between Lebanon and Syria. They stopped cars going either way and checked passengers' IDs before deciding whether to let them pass, apparently looking for Shiites or al-Mikdad supporters.
In the nearby town of Chtoura, four gunmen abducted Syrian businessman Hossam Khasroum, pulling him from his car as he was driving and taking him to an unknown location, security officials said. Khasroum, the officials said, is known to be a support of Assad's regime.
In a separate incident, gunmen attacked a car driven by pro-Syrian Lebanese politician, Joseph Abu-Fadel, breaking his car windows with stones as he was driving to Syria. He and three others were slightly injured.
On Wednesday, armed members of the al-Mikdad clan said they had kidnapped more than 20 Syrian nationals and a Turk in Lebanon in retaliation for the abduction of their relative, Hassane Salim al-Mikdad, who was captured in Syria this week.
Rebels who kidnapped al-Mikdad claimed he was a member of the Shiite militant group Hezbollah, a staunch supporter of President Bashar Assad's regime. Hezbollah and his family deny this.
The conflict in Syria has a sharply sectarian tone.
The rebels are predominantly Sunni, whereas Assad and his inner circle come mainly from the Alawite sect, an offshoot of Shiite Islam. Similarly, Lebanon has had long rivalries between its own Sunni and Shiite communities. Throughout Syria's conflict, Lebanese Sunnis have largely been sympathetic to the Syrian rebellion, while Hezbollah - the main Shiite political power - has backed Assad.
Maher al-Mikdad, a family spokesman, warned on Thursday that "if anything happens to Hassane, we will kill the Turkish hostage we have and many others. But we will start with the Turks."

Fox aired a winner of a live musical with Grease: Live. One of the highlights of the show was Vanessa Hudgens in the role of Rizzo. Hudgens was one of the first to be cast, and she stole the show more than a few times in the three-hour special.
Any of you still reeling about the loss of the High School Musical franchise finally have something to croon about. Disney has decided to move forward with a spinoff following the moody drama teacher Ms Darbus. Alyson Reed will reprise her role. The news had been in the works since late last year, but the network has finally expedited the process. Shooting will begin in March with a hope to launch the new franchise early next year.
MTV has announced they are once again committed to scripted shows. A successful run at reality, and faux reality, shows has helped the network turn from a place for music videos to a viable cable network. Now theyre looking to follow the success of shows like College Humor with even more scripted programming.
It just wont stop. Disney has announced that High School Musical 4 is on the way in 2010. After a brief stop in theaters the show is returning to its Disney Channel roots. Too bad not a single original cast member is slated to be back.
I really cant picture myself sitting in a crowded theater, surrounded by giggly tweens, probably there for their second or third repeat viewing, all set to sing along with Zac and Vanessa. I like HSM, but not so much that Ill be lining up at the theater to get at it. No, I like my HSM from the comfort of my own couch, in my pajamas where no one can witness me smiling through each song and dance routine.
This show looks like little more than ABC/Disneys attempt to cash in a bit more on the HSM ratings. That said, its likely that this series will be popular among the High School Musical audience, many of which are probably counting down the days until their favorite fictional high school class sings and dances their way through their senior year on the big screen this fall.
It looks like MTVs going to try to cash in on the tween market with their own made-for-TV musical. From the people who exec-produced High School Musical, MTV is set to air The American Mall this August.
As if High School Musical 3 (Senior Year) wasnt enough, Disney-owned ABC has decided to bring the phenomenon to the masses of people who dont have cable. Yes, there are some out there. Until recently, my family and I only had farmer-vision, and there are loads of people still using the airwaves to entertain themselves for free.
Perhaps it's an issue of a made-for-TV movie not really fitting into any of the categories but after reviewing the nominations for this year's Nickelodeon's Kids' Choice Awards, I couldn't help but notice that the hugely popular Disney Channel TV movie, High School Musical 2 didn't get any nominations.
The upcoming project from the producers of High School Musical will follow an American high school graduate to her next logical destination the mall. The teen musical American Mall will premiere on MTV next summer, Reuters reports, followed by a quick DVD release.
Rumor has it, Vanessa Hudgens will most definitely be returning to her starring role in the Disney musical series, High School Musical. Normally, this wouldnt be big news considering the monstrous success of the first two High School Musical films, but after Hudgens nude-photo scandal in September, rumors started to circulate that one of the Cheetah Girls might be taking over her role as Gabriella.
In terms of the story, its fairly simple. Gabriella and Troy set out to have a great summer but obviously, things didnt go as planned. A logical person would say that Troy was right to use the opportunities he had to solidify his future. There is life after high school, after all. But as I watched this movie I remembered my own days in high school and how great it was to be young and virtually care free.

Investor Protection AND Legal Security IN International Arbitration
Cremades, Bernardo M., Dispute Resolution Journal
Adapted from the author's presentation at the 24th annual meeting of the ICC Institute of World Business Law, in Paris on November 15, 2004, this article considers the issue of multiple arbitral proceedings relating to the same or similar issues in the context of investment arbitration. It examines how this problem has arisen and how it threatens the legal security of international arbitration. It also offers some practical approaches to resolving this problem.
Investment arbitration has brought enormous changes to the field of international arbitration. It has expanded the dispute resolution choices available to investors, but it has also enabled investors to commence parallel investment arbitration proceedings relating to the same subject matter. Such parallel proceedings could give rise to awards with inconsistent conclusions, or even scandalously contradictory awards. The question is: Will this problem tarnish the high regard in which international arbitration is held? This article highlights the importance of flexibility in order to maintain international arbitration's well-deserved reputation in the brave new world of investment arbitration.
Enforceability of Treaty Obligations
It is now widely accepted in arbitral jurisprudence that an offer, made by a sovereign State party to a multilateral or bilateral investment treaty (BIT), to submit disputes to arbitration, if accepted by a foreign investor, establishes an enforceable arbitration agreement.1 The undertakings made by Host States (i.e., states where foreign investments are made) under these treaties, such as an agreement to provide "just and equal treatment," "non-discriminatory treatment," or "most-favored-nation treatment," are binding and enforceable.
Investment protection treaties also impose obligations on Host States not to directly or indirectly expropriate an investor's property. As a result, in investment arbitration, arbitral tribunals often must assess the legal consequences of actions by a Host State that affect a foreign investment and determine whether, for example, the State's fiscal framework constituted an indirect expropriation of an investment for treaty purposes.
The Expanding Meaning of "Investment" and the Effect on Treaty and Contract Claims
Initially, the investment-treaty regime focused on investments in natural resources (such as natural gas and petroleum) and mining. However, Over time, the range of foreign investments has broadened to include all manner of commercial enterprises. With this development, the meaning of the term "investment" for investment-treaty purposes has similarly expanded. As a result, foreign investors have come to possess both treaty rights under multilateral treaties and BITs with Host States, and contractual rights under concession and construction contracts with Host States or their agencies and instrumentalities.
However, not every contract claim gives rise to a treaty claim. Treaty claims arise only when there has been a violation of the Host State's promise to protect investments made by investors from the other contracting State. But some investment-protection treaties arguably elevate contract claims to the category of treaty claims through an "umbrella clause" in which the Host State undertakes, through the treaty, to respect its contractual commitments.
The line between contract and treaty claims is not clearly defined and there are colorful cases addressing whether tribunals established pursuant to investment-protection treaties have jurisdiction over contract claims by reason of an umbrella clause.2 In one case, an arbitral award was annulled because the tribunal accepted jurisdiction over treaty claims but did not exercise it for various reasons. The tribunal annulled the award because it was infra petita.3
The ability to make claims under both a contract and a treaty has created an opportunity for forum shopping. Investors can now decide whether the forum cited in their concession or construction contract is strategically better than the forum for investment claims designated in the investment-protection treaty. …

Gary Gold, chair of the West Las Vegas school board, is pushing the issue of consolidation in a responsible way. He's taking it to his own school board.
For crying out loud, the new city charter has been sitting there for two years, so why wait until after the Jan. 10 filing date to seek a summary judgment?
The answer, from the man who wants to challenge the new charter, is that he should have done it earlier, but since he didn't, it's better to do it now rather than after the March 6 municipal elections.
Robertson freshman Richard "Rico" Montoya was all business Saturday in scoring a decision over Belen's Phillip Gonzales in the 120-pound championship match of the Cardinal Wrestling Classic at Mike Marr Gym.
But while the unusually poised youngster may have treated it like any other match, it was actually a pretty significant moment.
Joe Ortiz turned in another big night, and Ruben Bustamante and Lucas Rodriguez shined in the backcourt for West Las Vegas in Thursday's 60-53 victory over visiting Santa Rosa.
Though the Lions held their own with pure hustle, Ortiz's versatile inside-outside game tipped the advantage to West Las Vegas. Ortiz finished with 17 points; Bustamante had the hot hand with 18, and Rodriguez played well, chipping in nine.
Josh Tenorio (13) and Marcus Lopez (12) led Santa Rosa, which brought a good crowd.

Police are looking for two men in an armed robbery with a bizarre twist.
Greenville Pplice say a worker at Fuji Japan was held up at gunpoint behind the restaurant on Greenville Blvd. around 7:30 p.m. Tuesday. Police say one man approached the worker with a board full of jewelry, trying to sell him something. While they talked, a man with a gun came up and demanded the necklace the worker was already wearing.
Police say the gunman and the apparent jewelry salesman were working together. The restaurant worker was not hurt in the robbery.

From the Director
First Sunday after the Epiphany
Baptism of Our Lord 2016
"Not here for your amusement."
Often times church musicians are pulled in so many directions, have so many requests of their time that they may be tempted to mutter something like that under their breath.
In a certain sense that phrase is actually true. Contemporary life has so many ways of providing entertainment—television, movies, sports, games, the internet—that we're almost overwhelmed by the possibilities for amusement. Church music is not one of those.
In the ancient world and Greek mythology every serious endeavor of art or science was thought to be guided by a Muse. That muse was the source of creativity, insight, ingenuity, invention, thought, inspiration, a source of ideas.
"Amusement" literally means "to be without a muse." It's downtime for the brain, a chance to check out for a while, to be mindless and unengaged, without serious thought and reflection.
The aim of the music of the Church is the opposite—to engage the faithful Christian in contemplation of the mystery of the Incarnation and to dwell deeply there. It is a means to reflect upon God's plan of salvation and how that was made flesh in the person and work of Jesus Christ and how his Spirit continues to call, gather, and enlighten the whole Church on earth.
Likewise the Center for Church Music is not here for anyone's amusement. It is here to assist you as you lead others, in rehearsal and in worship, closer to the Way, the Truth and the Life.
These truths on Jordan's banks were shown by mighty word and wonder.
The Father's voice from heav'n came down, which we do well to ponder:
"This man is my beloved Son, in whom my heart has pleasure.
Him you must hear, and him alone, and trust in fullest measure
the word that he has spoken."
- Martin Luther (translation by Elizabeth Quitmeyer)
Lord, transfigure our perception with the purest light that shines,
and recast our life's intentions to the shape of your designs,
till we seek no other glory than what lies past Calvary's hill
and our living and our dying and our rising by your will.
- Thomas Troeger
O Holy Spirit, be our Muse!
Barry L. Bobb

DD born September 8, 2012!
"Only prostitutes have two glasses of wine at lunch!
Well then buy me a boa and drive me to Reno because I am open for business!"
mine is a bit older than most of your babies for she was born on Aug 30th, and Before she wanted to be in my arms, and I could leave her in her bed only after she'd fall a sleep ..But yesterday she started to "ask" to leave her alone in her bed to take a nap...... I thought it was not something she wants to establish as a routine now, but today she was crying when in my arms again and when I'd leave her in a bed - she would stop crying, I'd give her paci and she fell a sleep in 1 minute without any crying... Looks like my back is finally going to recover :-)
I try to put her down for a nap every 2hrs per my pedi. I stop playing with her and gently rock her for a few minutes until she is asleep or almost asleep then lay her down. I alternate laying her on the bed, the pack & play, crib and in her vibrating chair depending on what I am going to do while she sleeps. She sleeps anywhere from 30min-2 hours. She has hated being swaddled from birth and I also EBF.

BEFORE I START-NO PHOTOS TODAY, AS I'M USING 28,800 B/SEC BROADBAND .I HAD TO WAIT FOR OVER HALF AN HOUR TO GET THIS FAR(to the text editor).AND THIS THREAD IS IN MY FAVO(U)RITES.SAD!!!!
Okay, rant over.So today we start by Bill's house on Route 24, but we helped him out already so we came back to Cerulean City.It was a success!I won!I owe 90% of it to Cian(Pikachu) who wiped out 2/3 of Misty's Pokemon.It's just sad that Cian got wiped out on the last Pokemon.But, Nathan(Squirtle), 1-hit K0'd the Starmie, so yeah
.Anyways I moved on to Vermillion City .I went into the S.S. Anne.
And without wasting any time, I went to the captains office.But before that, a battle with Gary Oak!And, guess what?I won!But after I spoke to the captain this is what appeared in the textbox:
Red rubbed
the captains(Arrow Down)
I don't really think that I should press the A button... but I did
And I got HM01 Cut!
Anyways, this is the end of this part, as we'll be moving to Vermillion Gym in the next part.
GLITCH OF THE PART The '0 Error Glitch'
If you want to do this glitch make sure you didn't fight:
-The bug catcher on Route 6, the northermost trainer on that route, and,
-The youngster on Route 11, the first youngster when you enter Route 11 from Vermillion Cities side. --You are forbidden to go into tall grass, it'll ruin the glitch
1)Go to Route 6, and then go to the mentioned trainer.Fight him.Remember:Do not go into tall grass!
2)Teleport/Fly to Vermillion City
3)Go over to the youngster on Route 11.Fight him.Do not go into the tall grass!
4)Go back onto Route 6.You should get some weird glitchy effects, and when you go into the menu, it should say on the bottom ERROR 0 .
Didn't get something: then watch this:
This is actually the easiest glitch to do in Red!

Want to feel safe in one of the safest cities in the United States? Then choose elsewhere. I placed a work-order to have my Washer Machine fixed, I came back a few hours later to find my door left unlocked and over $2000.00 in Personal Property now missing. A police Report with the Irvine PD was made, top suspect is the Maintenance Team though I never have accused them...only of leaving the door unlocked. Calypso Management refuses to take ANY accountability and has just directed me to their Legal Team who ALSO has taken NO accountability, even though it is their negligence which left my door unlocked. I trust the City of Irvine, I DO NOT TRUST the Team here at Calypso, now that I see NOTHING is being done to resolve the issue. YES - Renters Insurance claim was made. NO - Calypso not covering the deductible. They offered to waive my lease break fee, which is GREAT because I can't wait to leave... BUT this does not cover the valuable info included with what was stolen, the costs of moving when not intended, and the worst part of all of this is that it is completely being blown off as no big deal. Save yourself the trouble and look elsewhere.

The noise from the cars on Jamboree road is enough to drive one crazy. Don't expect on ever getting back your deposits because they will find ways to keep it. The parking is horrible and I am just glad I am out of that place!

Came by this place to visit a friend. Made my way into the parking area and was informed by parking staff that I should park in the "future resident" parking space if I was only going to be there for 10 minutes. I walk into what I thought was a lobby and ask if it's a lobby, and a rude annoying failing b****, "Amber", comes up and rudely says "No, this is the leasing office". So I tell them about my parking situation (how im parked in the 'future resident spot') and they say "oh you need to move your car or it'll get towed". I tell them the tow guy/parking staff told me it was ok and they say "Oh, he doesn't work for us" (what the hell, he had an Avalon shirt on). So I say "oh I'll remember not to tip him then", so she says "instead of tipping him you should ask him for money because you're going to need it when we tow your car", so I respond with "this place is going to need money, after I sue you" and leave. Everything from the tacky decor in the office to their raging bitter staff reeks of insecurity. You'd think they were running a brothel instead of an apartment complex. The Motel 6 of up-scale apartments.

Just wanted to re-open the thread so that I could recruit a beta tester for Sienna. I don't a regular beta tester I want an ideas man to bounce the hack back and forth between and I don't want them to hold back on anything. (Note: This isn't an easy job and will involve the hack being replayed multiple times.)
It works, thank you very much! I'm enjoying your hack so far.

Wow, that's wierd
When I first heard this, I didn't really like this song. A 6/10 maybe at best. But I was doing something else at the time so I left it on loop. By the time I heard it a third time, it was amazing! I can't stop listening to it. So I shared the link to this song with people of forums and many of them agree that this song has that kind of effect...addicting. I don't know if that's a good thing, but this song deserves a high rating. Unfortunately 10/10 and 5/5 is as high as it goes...
