To celebrate More's quinceañera, we've selected the best beauty finds
While makeup brushes aren't the sexiest purchase, Sonia Kashuk's Fall Brush Up 10-piece set ($27; target.com) is eye catching enough to be exciting. Worthy of public display, the amethyst-bristled collection contains a comprehensive assortment of tools— and boasts a price that won't break the bank.
Terry de Gunzburg, the French cosmetics genius behind By Terry Cosmetics (and the brains behind the best-selling concealer YSL Touche Éclat), has created five complex fragrances ($195; barneys.com) that are all so lovely, it's too difficult for us to choose a favorite. Our preferred layering combo, though, is Rêve Opulent (a heavy-on-the-gardenia floral) topped by Parti Pris (a sexy tuberose).
A nude lip can be appealing—but take neutrality too far, and you might end up looking a little dead. No danger of that with YSL's new rebel nudes ($34; yslbeautyus.com). Using its blockbuster Rouge Pur Couture Glossy Stain formula, which looks like an opaque gloss but lasts like long-wear lipstick, the company has created 10 elegant new neutrals. Our favorite hue and the most universally flattering: no. 101 nude provocateur.
Why do we love Elizabeth Arden Beautiful Color Moisturizing Lipstick ($25; elizabetharden.com)? It feels like lip balm, plumps like lip gloss and lasts like lipstick—the ultimate trium-virate. Available in 40 shades.
Designer Marc Jacobs has focused his creative talents on cosmetics this fall, with the splashy launch of his Marc Jacobs Beauty brand at Sephora nationwide. One of his—and our—favorite items in the line is the Remedy Concealer Pen ($39; sephora.com), a camouflaging cream that promises to cover and correct, thanks to a cocktail of anti-aging ingredients. Bonus: The pen's palladium tip soothes and cools the under-eye during application. Avail-able in seven shades.
Les Beiges Healthy Glow Sheer Powder from Chanel ($60; chanel.com) serves many purposes. It comes in seven shades; find one akin to your skin tone, and it will set your foundation—or act as barely-there coverage (like a powder version of tinted moisturizer). Choose a slightly deeper hue, and it functions as contour powder, eyeshadow or even a bronzer. Finally, go lighter and use the powder to highlight cheekbones, browbones or the Cupid's bow of your top lip. Shown: No. 30, which works as a bronzer for fair tones, as sheer coverage for medium tones and as a highlighter for darker skin.
7. Using skin-care ingredients such as retinol, copper peptides and alpha lipoic acid, Dr. Dennis Gross Skincare Root Resilience Anti-Aging Scalp Serum( $54; qvc.com) maximizes the condition of the scalp and of the follicles from which hair grows. The premise...and the promise? Healthier scalp skin will promote stronger, shinier strands.
A DDS-approved version of Pop Rocks, that fizzy sweet of the '70s, minty Effervescent Breath Treatments ($36 for a box of 40; qvc.com), from dentist Thomas Connelly's company 32,negate sulfur compounds in the mouth, ridding you of bad breath in about a minute.
Mascara shopping? You need not choose between one that volumizes and one that separates lashes. BareMinerals Lash Domination Volumizing Mascara ($18; bareminerals.com) has engineered a wand that both deposits a generous dose of black pigment on the lashes and thoroughly combs it through so your fringe is left clump free.
Celebrity stylist Sarah Potempa has created another hair tool we didn't know we needed but now can't live without. The 7.5-inch Jet-Setter cordless rechargeable mini flatiron ($99; joyus.com) is a must-have for anyone who gets ready at the gym, travels often or just likes to touch up her hair on humid days.
Hairspray has come a long way from the Aqua Net '80s, but this new formula, Living Proof Flex Shaping Hairspray ($24; livingproof.com), may be one of the most versatile incarnations we've seen. This supersoft spray can be used to set a style without stickiness and boost volume in damp hair while blow-drying. Even hard-core hairspray-phobes may find themselves spritzing with abandon.
Like BB (beauty balm) creams for your face, this eye treatment, DiorSnow BB Eye Crème ($49; macys.com), is a multitasker. Not only does it brighten the under-eye and provide sheer coverage, but its ingredients even out skin tone and diminish puffiness, making the most of your beauty budget.
Recognizing that most American women prefer a streamlined skin regimen, Philosophy Time in a Bottle ($74; sephora.com) meets all your anti-aging needs in one pump. Thanks to vitamin C and a cocktail of enzymes, the formula diminishes fine lines, evens tone, tightens pores and firms.
This product falls into the why not camp. Sally Hansen's Fuzzy Coat Textured Nail Color( $6; drugstores) has tiny fibers for a sweater-like effect that's appropriate for fall.
Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair Synchronized Recovery Complex II ($62 to $92; esteelauder.com) boasts a to-do list as long as its name. An updated version of the brand's best-selling nighttime treatment, this serum smooths lines, evens tone and hydrates, thanks to new technology that boosts the skin's ability to repair itself while you sleep.

Kiddos Hitting the Diet Soda
It's great that they're laying off sugar, but is no one concerned some tot will grow a third arm?
With everyone and their mayor freaking out about sugary drinks, it makes sense that kiddie consumption of diet soda is way up. (It doubled between 1999 and 2008, reports the Salt, and we'd bet it's even higher by now.) Sure, it's great if tykes are taking in less sugar, but what about all the other crap in these drinks — doesn't too much aspartame up the risk of growing a third arm or something? Guess it's probably better than drinking hand sanitizer. [Salt/NPR]

Heat 100, 76ers 94
Observations from Thursday's 100-94 victory over the 76ers at Wells Fargo Center:
- Dwyane Wade made a significant adjustment by getting the ball on the move. That changed everything about the 76ers' defense, and also changed Wade's scoring average in the series. He also pushed through a jammed shoulder. This was his moment.
- This also was one of those LeBr0n-as-needed games. He didn't force the offense while Wade was surging, instead filling the box score as needed. A heck of a supporting player.
- Chris Bosh opened 1 of 7 from the field. The looks were there, the shot wasn't. And neither were his hands early. At times, it was as if he was back in Chicago, where he actually might be headed, soon enough. But he did come around to have his moment.
- LeBron hit Wade for a trademark three-quarters-court transition pass late in the second period, with Wade turning into an and-one.
- Because of the Spurs' victory Wednesday, if a Game 5 in Heat-76ers is necessary Wednesday at AmericanAirlines Arena, it would be at 7 p.m.
- The key word on the Heat's pregame strategy board was "Urgency." There were little of that at the outset, as the Heat fell behind by 10.
- Spencer Hawes scored the 76ers' first basket, a jumper, then fell down while running back the other way.
- Zydrunas Ilgauskas opened 2 of 3, with the rest of the Heat 0 for 8.
- How many fingers does Ilgauskas actually need to score? Two? Three? It was tip-city for a while Thursday.
- James Jones shooting the ball? A good thing. James Jones handling the ball? A not-so-good thing. He had two quick, early turnovers.
- No Mike Miller. Confidence waning. The 76ers' large early lead removed the chance for the Heat to play through a Miller rough patch.
- So the 76ers couldn't hit a shot in the series entering the night, needed to open the paint for Andre Iguodala, and Jason Kapono still was inactive for the third time in as many games?
- Philadelphia coach Doug Collins said during his morning media session that the reasons the Heat's good players succeed is because they're good players. "Those are great players, man," Collins said. "LeBron James was on a Cleveland team that won 61 games and went to the NBA Finals. Dwyane Wade won an NBA championship. Chris Bosh has been the guy on Toronto forever."
- Collins wasn't done, downplaying the ability of an opposing crowd to throw them off their game. "They went to Beijing and won a gold medal," Collins said. "You think that crowd out there is going to bother them? Come on."
- If nothing else, Collins wasn't backing down. "I always think I can win, even if you have three aces," Collins said.
- NBA Commissioner David Stern was among those in the crowd. He dismissed speculation of the Cavaliers moving forward on filing a tampering claim against the Heat for their recruitment of James.
- The 76ers distributed white T-shirts, but did not insist their fans wear them.
- Give it to the 76ers, a real good atmosphere for a playoff game, from start to finish.

This field was globally added to the kernel for proper nanosecond time rounding (presumably it was added just after 2.6.10). The RHEL4 version of the cifs code (which handles 2.6.8/2.6.9 kernels) should be fine and does not depend on this field, although I have not tried it personally on 2.6.10

I don't spend much time on the webpages, but must have broken a few links when I added the two new child html pages, but I will scan through and try to find and fix any broken links. Check back tomorrow and let me know if you see any broken links that I have not addresed.

Members of the Delaware State Police Governor's Task Force have arrested a Felton man, identified as James T. Moore Jr., 39, on charges of dealing methamphetamine out of his house.
The incident occurred at approximately 7 p.m. Aug. 2, as troopers responded to a home in the 9000 block of Canterbury Road, Felton when an occupant found soda bottles containing an unknown substance. Troopers arrived and determined the bottles were active "one pot" portable meth labs used to manufacture methamphetamine.
Troopers located additional bottles containing waste associated with the manufacturing of meth along with components and key ingredients in making the drug.
Detectives identified Moore as the primary suspect and arrested him Aug. 12 after receiving information his truck had broken down west of Felton.
Moore was charged with possession with intent to deliver methamphetamine, two counts of endangering the welfare of a child and possession of drug paraphernalia
He was jailed at the James T. Vaughn Correctional Center, Smyrna, in lieu of a $6,250 secured bond.
No evacuations were ordered as it was determined that there was no immediate threat or hazards to nearby residents.
Troopers were assisted by the Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control, Delaware State Fire Marshal's Office, and specialized local Delaware Volunteer Fire Company teams during the dismantling of the portable meth labs and cleanup and mitigation process to dispose of the waste.

Steve Jobs Wins A Grammy From The Beyond
Conferred for his "contributions" to the music industry.
It's common knowledge that talent is strictly optional to win a Grammy Award. However, if you happen to be the ex-CEO of an influential multinational corporation, you don't have to be a musician either - or even walk the mortal realm for that matter. That's pretty much how Steve Jobs has clinched a Grammy this year. Although Apple had won a Technical Grammy back in 2002, this particular Trustees Award has been conferred solely to Jobs.
According to the official Grammy website, this award is given "to individuals who, during their careers in music, have made significant contributions to the field of recording". One might say that Jobs' award nomination glosses over the fact that he didn't really have a career in music, but neither did previous winners such as Thomas A. Edison or Walt Disney. However, they indirectly contributed to the music industry, much like Jobs did with the iTunes service.
In the wake of greedy music labels hogging almost all the earnings of recording musicians, Apple's digital music store was expected to protect their revenue and livelihoods. It took quite a while for everyone to figure out how the artistes are actually worse off with iTunes and its ilk. In addition to the record labels, which actually spend money to promote the bands, Apple has been pocketing 35% of album sales for little more than hosting music on its servers.
Since Jobs was unavailable, Apple's Eddy Cue (Senior VP of Internet Software and Services) accepted the award. If for nothing else, Jobs certainly deserves this Grammy for figuring out a way to make the most amount of money through music with the least amount of investment!

Was this, for lack of better words, "dumb?"
Overwhelmed. Moved across the country for husband's schooling while in the third trimester with our first baby. Feeling more than down and out, alone, sad. No support system. Sadly DH does not understand my struggle. Went from having plenty of family close by to none. Any words of encouragement or any similar struggles would be so appreciative to read about.

I am sort of on the same boat. I am from Europe and stayed here because hubby cant work otuside the US (pharmacy). It is hard on me being so far from my supportive, loving family and my tons of friends still from childhood. Now pregnant I see I have to move from my beloved NYC where I've worked and lived 4 years to Baltimore, where he will be licensed this may when he graduates. I am terrified. I don't like the city, and compared to NYC there is NOTHING to do where I live in Maryland. I have no friends, while working at a school, I have tons of moms expecting at around the same time and they all say "cant wait to see ur baby! cant wait for our babies to be friends!" and breaks my heart to think "no... i will be at home in the middle of nowhere in Maryland when the baby is born...."So, you are just a step ahead,but I am dreading it. I know we will make it, and our babies will fill our time with love and happiness and bussy-ness!! but try to find activities with other moms, that may helpposted 10/07/2012 by luciafschnupp
I left the place I grew up , family , friends and also quit my job to move with my husband. Yes at times I do keep thinking was it all good, on days when my husband has no work load to sit next to him makes it all worth it. So all I want to say is hang in there . Make new friends , explore the place in free time with your husband. Listen to music you love join some group classes for dance or anything you enjoy.posted 10/03/2012 by Trishna_Nambiar
It was not dumb because you were supporting your husband, and I'm sure it was a move for a good cause. I moved a few states away once, and I was not pregnant and had a very hard time with it, so I kind of understand. It's hard when you feel that you have no support. Have you talked to your husband about how you're feeling? Maybe he doesn't realize what you're feeling or he just doesn't know what to do to help you. I don't know if you're a religious person, but if you are, maybe if you joined a church or prayer group you will feel better with that. I know some people really find peace in places like that and it may be a good idea. I wish you the best of luck and hope that soon you will feel better!posted 09/28/2012 by alicia_87
When my ex husband and I moved from our home town of Montana all the way to NJ is was a shok. I was 71/2 months along and hd no close family or friends to really talk to so i understand were you're coming from. Just remember that GOD is your support system and HE will always be there to help you through trials. Try and find a MOPS group if they have one, a bible study or even a moms to moms group. I hope everything works out for you hun.posted 09/26/2012 by Jamie168
Oh, I moved across the continent (and changed countries for that matter) to be closer to my then-boyfriend. Things worked out since we're now-married, but it was the absolute loneliest experience of my life. I can't even fathom doing so while pregnant - I was emotional enough without all the extra hormones!! =) Definitely find a support group of sorts - be it a church or new-mom's group. Heck, join the Y. One thing I learned very quickly that it did no good to wait for others to welcome me to the area. People are busy and don't tend to think about others of their own accord. Make it your mission to meet your neighbors...bring them some baked goods, or ask to borrow a cup of milk, or invite someone over for supper. You need to be the one to make that first step, because otherwise it doesn't happen and the loneliness lingers. Others' suggestions of Skyping loved ones is awesome - unlimited long-distance minutes come in great on those really tough days.posted 09/18/2012 by ladymugs
One thing to remember is that you are probably a giant ball of hormones- not saying what you feel isnt' important or real. But, keep in mind that EVERY pregnant woman feels that way a little regardless of their situation. I moved with my husband and our 18 month old while I was in my third trimester for his job. It was a place that we really didn't like, NO friends and the only family was an hour away and too busy to be much support. After the baby was born and I realized that I am a good and loving mother and my hsuband is a good and loving father and husband I relaxed. Concentrate on what you can do right now- be healthy, get baby stuff ready, research names, Skype with your family or make you baby a photo albulm with all your family's pictures in it so he/she can recognize their faces.posted 09/15/2012 by k_magelky
No it is important to support each other. I can understand your feelings. Talk to your husband about it and try and lean on him for your support.and call you family and talk to them on the phone do video chats and stuff it will help with the loneliness and you want feel so sad about being so far awayposted 09/15/2012 by lil_demongrl_324
no it wasn't dumb it was right to go you find a support system there but if it bothers you see if your family can come out after the baby born for a few days it will work outposted 09/09/2012 by twildthing2006

Evaluate Your "D" Intake
To get the biggest benefit from your vitamin D supplement, you may need to increase your dose, suggests a new study published in Anticancer Research. Adults need 4,000 to 8,000 IU of vitamin D daily to reduce their risk of several diseases—breast cancer, colon cancer, multiple sclerosis and type 1 diabetes—by about half, say researchers to who studied several thousand supplement users. That's much higher than the 600 IU recommended daily by the National Academy of Sciences Institute of Medicine but is still well within the range the committee considers safe. Increase your blood levels of vitamin D by upping your supplement dosage, spending 20 minutes in the late morning or early afternoon sun and eating more D-rich foods, such as seafood and fortified dairy.

First home? Woohoo! Go, you! We've got a few suggestions, and all will work depending on how big of a kitchen you've got & how much cabinet, counter, & drawer space. First are utensil crocks - we've got one that we keep beside the stove with the spatulas, tongs, etc that we use the most, so we can grab them as we're cooking. Second are wall-mounted magnetic knife/utensil racks (if you've got small kids running around, store the knives in a drawer so inquisitive wee hands don't pull them off) - any metal knife or utensil will stick to 'em. Last are kitchen carts, which usually feature extra drawers, towel bars, and the like, and can be wheeled around as needed.
1 - Butterfly Utensil Crock & Utensil Set ($15)
2 - Le Creuset Utensil Holder ($35, in 4 colors)
3 - Bamboo Kitchen Utensil Crock ($13)
4 - Granite-Top Kitchen Cart ($100)
5 - Mandalay Bamboo Kitchen Cart ($100 on sale)
6 - Stainless Steel Magnetic Knife Rack ($20)
7 - 13" Bamboo Magnetic Knife Rack ($28)

Court Holds That CEQA Does Not Require Analysis Of The Environment's Impacts On A Proposed Project
In Ballona Wetlands Land Trust v. City of Los Angeles, the Court addressed an apparent inconsistency between the CEQA Guidelines and the statute. The Court held the CEQA does not require analysis of the impacts of the existing environment on a proposed project (as distinguished from the impacts of the project on the environment), and sharply criticized the CEQA guidelines that suggest otherwise. The opinion also upheld the EIR's discussion of mitigation for impacts to archeological resources, provides useful guidance on return to writ proceedings, and held that Respondents were prevailing parties for the purpose of awarding costs on the return to the writ, even though they lost the first round of CEQA litigation that led to initial issuance of the writ.
This case potentially eliminates the need for agencies to determine the significance of certain types of impacts -- including some seismic risk, flood hazard, and climate change impacts -- to the extent that those impacts would be caused by the existing environment and would be experienced by the proposed project or its users. Nevertheless, CEQA review likely still needs to analyze whether the proposed project would significantly exacerbate seismic risks, flood hazards, and climate change impacts on the environment. This distinction will not always be easy to identify, and agencies should obtain legal advice before deciding to eliminate review of impacts traditionally considered in CEQA documents.
Go here for the full analysis of the Ballona Wetlands Land Trust v. City of Los Angeles case.

Public Signs are Everywhere but are they Necessary?
PUBLIC SIGNS ARE EVERYWHERE BUT ARE THEY NECESSARY? – You've been out shopping all day at the mall, when you realize you not only skipped lunch but that it is almost dinnertime. As you head to the food court you pass the adjoining play land where children are running and screaming.
It's noisy, but it is happy noise. As you stand in line to get your food a mother struggles with her toddler. He is pulling hard to break her hold on his arm and crying that he is NOT hungry. HE. WANTS. TO. PLAY! As his cries escalate, his mom gets more embarrassed and frustrated. He frees himself and begins running around uncontrollably.
On a plane headed to your sister's wedding, a family with three small children board and settle in behind you. With all the excitement of take-off, their laughter and squeals warm your heart. Then they start kicking your seat; over and over again. You turn, tell the parents and assume it will stop.
It doesn't Then the fighting starts because one child won't share the window, the book or whatever, you can hardly tell what they are saying amid the screaming and crying. It's going to be a long flight.
Minor inconveniences or too often occurrences? It appears that for some businesses, unruly children and ineffective parents are forcing them to place limitations on what type of customer utilizes their services.
Parents please be considerate of other customers using the food court. Screaming children will not be tolerated in the centre. Centre Management
This sign which is posted and clearly seen as soon as you enter the food court of a popular mall in Australia, is one example. A Pittsburgh restaurant, McDain's, has recently placed a ban on children under the age of six from dining in the restaurant and is joined by many restaurants now doing the same.
Several weeks ago, Malaysia Airlines announced that it would ban infants from flying in the first-class cabin and last February rumors circulated that Virgin Atlantic, British Airways and Emirates Airlines have been under pressure to consider adult only zones (first or business class) and even child-free planes in response to a survey that listed unruly children as the No. 1 travel-related complaint of passengers.
It is important to note that each of these businesses is addressing noisy children who are allowed to run around or act up with no obvious parental supervision. This is not an act of discrimination against small babies, toddlers or their parents who are doing their best to meet their needs. Author
Do businesses have the right to prohibit certain customers and at what point do we say it is not good business sense but discrimination?
There is a responsibility upon businesses to provide an appropriate atmosphere for their customers and although recent events have seemed to center around children, rules of conduct apply equally to teens and adults.
Rowdy behavior, too loud voices, drunken revelry all can ruin a movie, meal or concert. Bouncers in bars/nightclubs control the masses, librarians hush giggles and encourage whispers, and everywhere we go there are rules of society that the majority of us follow.
Businesses are in business to make money they depend on repeat customers. Customers rely on the services they provide and will take their money elsewhere at the drop of a hat.
Will you be looking for such establishments or avoiding them based on the grounds of "parental rights?"
Parental rights involve many things like making decisions about food, school, health and friends for starters. Your rights as a parent also include shaping and encouraging your young child to behave in a manner acceptable to society that will allow them to grow into productive adults. It also assumes that the person making these decisions will be responsible for the outcome should the choices made be poor ones.
To force a business to post a sign restricting children or their activities is not a reflection on the business but on our society. I for one see this as a positive step and think it is about time that someone has the courage to put their foot down and say "No more."
Parents have been getting lazier and less able to handle their children over the past 20 years. With a cell phone permanently glued to their hands or their ears, most parents are paying less and less attention to their offspring today and seem surprised and ill equipped to handle conflict when it does arise.
Discipline and spanking are foreign concepts to many younger parents and although there are some who will use positive reinforcement as a training method, too many are willing to simply let the kids do as they wish with the belief that good behavior will happen as they get older.
Here's a secret: Good behavior doesn't just happen, it needs to be taught and teaching begins in the home. For today's daycare workers and pre-school teachers, the pay doesn't begin to compensate them for reigning in the undisciplined children they deal with every day.
Too often, these caregivers are the very people who begin to create a structured environment and teach basic manners for thousands of children. We have handed over our parenting rights and turned these institutions into training centers for the next generation.
Until the tide turns and parents begin to take full responsibility for raising their children we can expect to see more signs popping up where we do our business. Before you get all worked up about signs that may be posted where you travel, remember there are some signs that apply to everyone.

Imaging of the surface of Mars by Mariner 9 was delayed by a dust storm which started on 22 September 1971 in the Noachis region. The storm quickly grew into one of the largest global storms ever observed on Mars. By the time the spacecraft arrived at Mars no surface details could be seen except the summits of Olympus Mons and the three Tharsis volcanoes. The storm abated through November and December and normal mapping operations began. The spacecraft gathered data on the atmospheric composition, density, pressure, and temperature and also the surface composition, temperature, gravity, and topography of Mars. A total of 54 billion bits of scientific data were returned, including 7329 images covering the entire planet. After depleting its supply of attitude control gas, the spacecraft was turned off on 27 October 1972. Mariner 9 was left in an orbit which should not decay for at least 50 years, after which the spacecraft will enter the Martian atmosphere.
The Mariner 9 mission resulted in a global mapping of the surface of Mars, including the first detailed views of the martian volcanoes, Valles Marineris, the polar caps, and the satellites Phobos and Deimos. It also provided information on global dust storms, the gravity field as well as evidence for surface aeolian activity.
(Garrett collected three 450 mL samples (for postflight microbial analysis) and two 750 mL samples (for postflight chemical analysis) from each of three ports (SRV-K hot, SRV-K warm, SVO-ZV) for return on STS-124/1J. The small amounts of water used for flushing the equipment were later reclaimed from the flush bag.)
CDR Volkov serviced the Russian BMP (Harmful Impurities Removal System), starting the "bake-out" cycle to vacuum on absorbent bed #2 of the regenerable dual-channel filtration system. The regen process will be terminated tonight at ~5:15pm EDT. Filter bed #1 was regenerated yesterday. (Regeneration of each of the two cartridges takes about 12 hours and is conducted only during crew awake periods.) Additional Details: ISS On-Orbit Status 05/30/08.

If you've never made ganache…PLEASE don't be intimidated!
I love ganache for the following reasons:
1.) It's fantastically easy
2.) It sounds fancy
3.) It's shiny and gorgeous
The majority of my ganache ends up on top of cheesecakes, however you can whip it to frost and pipe cupcakes, and even use it to roll up some gorgeous truffles.
I'm going to focus this post on topping a cheesecake…I just happened to have one in the fridge
12 oz. semisweet or bittersweet chocolate
1 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon liquor
Start by chopping the chocolate into small pieces. Place in a heat proof bowl.
In a medium pot, bring the heavy cream and butter slowly to a boil. Right when it starts to boil, pour the cream over the chocolate and let it set for a few minutes WITHOUT stirring.
Gently stir the cream into the chocolate, being careful not to whip or incorporate a lot of air into the ganache.
Add the tablespoon of liquor. I used a tablespoon of Bailey's Hazelnut Liquor for this one.
While the ganache is still warm, ladle on to the top of a very well-chilled cheesecake.
Using a long metal icing spatula, sweep the ganache from the center out to the sides, allowing it to cascade over the edges of the cake.
Take your spatula vertical and smooth out the ganache on the sides, adding more if necessary.
Alternately, if you'd like ganache only on the top of your cake, you can stop short of letting it cascade over or pipe decoration along the edges and let ganache pool in the middle.
Allow the ganache a few hours to set up. If your cheesecake, or regular cake, was cooled or chilled before adding the ganache it will stay nice and shiny. Place in the refrigerator to set more quickly.
Signing Off,
Modern Mrs. Cleaver

Out of curiosity, a U.S. Congressman once asked a Hindu American, Dr. Aseem Shukla, whether he was Sunni or Shia Hindu. Shukla, a member of the Hindu American Foundation's (HAF) Board of Directors, had just introduced himself to the Congressman as a Hindu during the foundation's 2005 Annual D.C. Advocacy Day.
The truth is that common, often shocking, misunderstanding of the Hindu faith exists throughout the country and worldwide. HAF, a non-profit Hindu American advocacy and human rights group, promotes the Hindu and American ideals of understanding, tolerance and pluralism. By interacting with government, media, and academia the foundation seeks to promote awareness and greater understanding about Hinduism by educating the various outlets dominating public perception about Hinduism and issues of concern to Hindus.
On Sunday, February 21, HAF held its first Cincinnati Awareness Drive Campaign at the Hindu Temple of Greater Cincinnati. During the presentation, Nikhil Joshi, Co-Founder and member of HAF's Board of Directors, said "media representation [of Hindus/Hinduism] is not necessarily malicious; it is simply out of ignorance."
A readily apparent example of such ignorance is exemplified in a Burger King advertisement in Spain, depicting the Hindu Goddess Laxshmi seated on top of a meat sandwich. Written in Spanish under the ad was a tag line that read "A snack that's sacred." Burger King Corporation, which had to be notified by HAF that the depiction was offensive to Hindus, was forced to remove the campaign.
In a another (2006) case, HAF faced, and ultimately succeeded in a dispute with California's State Board of Education over a 6th grade textbook that falsely stated Hinduism teaches that women are inferior to men. How such a misguided statement, taught to children by an American educational institution, made it through to publication is a dismal commentary on the knowledge, or lack there of, available to writers in print media about the Hindu faith.
"The manner in which Hinduism is presented in textbooks, magazines and newspapers impacts the perception that others have of the Hindu American community," said Sheetal Shah, HAF's Director of Development. Hinduism is the world's third largest religion, yet it is largely underrepresented in the eye of the public at large.
In 2007, HAF, after obtaining 30 Congressional supporters, successfully advocated the passage of Congressional Diwali Resolutions, making official the recognition of the culturally integral festival and holiday celebrated by Hindus, Jains, and Sikhs. Last Diwali, President Obama delivered a speech recognizing the importance of the festival and invited all to celebrate the cultural significance it holds within the community.
In addition to further educating the general public about core Hindu concepts, HAF seeks to connect with Hindus of all ages. "HAF has largely been successful in reaching many of the first generation Hindu Americans. The foundation's next big effort will focus on reaching out to the younger generations of Hindu Americans to introduce them to and interest them in advocacy efforts on behalf of the community."
Shah said she was first attracted to HAF not only because it maintains a strategic and highly professional approach to handling issues, but also because it is run by second generation Hindu Americans with whom she can relate.
The foundation, combining advocacy and education, continues to correct blatant misunderstandings of the faith and tackle the ongoing human rights issues that face Hindu Americans today.
HAF is currently working on its Annual Hindu Human Rights Report, which it first released in 2005. To find out more about the foundation and its current projects, visit its website or check out its blog.
Here a couple direct links to HAF's accomplishments and interesting articles.

Can one house of Congress sue the president?
That legal question will be answered at some point after the U.S. House voted 225 to 201 on July 30 to authorize Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) to sue President Barack Obama for delaying for one year implementation of the employer mandate under the Affordable Care Act (ACA) to provide employee health care coverage.
This vote was almost entirely along party lines. Every Democrat voted against the resolution and they were joined by five Republicans, none from Michigan. For the rest of the House Republicans, their vote showed a hatred of Obama so intense that they are willing to file a frivolous lawsuit of no legal merit, which stands a good chance of backfiring on them politically, at a cost to taxpayers likely to run into millions of dollars.
The legal barriers to this political publicity stunt are significant. We begin with the question of whether House Republicans have standing to sue in the first place. They must show an injury caused by Obama's delay in implementing the employer mandate. This appears to be an impossible burden, when the House has not only voted to delay the employer mandate, but also voted 54 times to repeal the ACA.
These votes occurred when the Republicans knew that all of these bills would be dead on arrival in the Democratic-controlled Senate. Under these circumstances, how can the Republicans honestly claim that this delay harms the House's institutional interests? It should also be noted that House Republicans didn't object in 2006 when former President George W. Bush delayed the enrollment deadline for the Medicare Part D prescription drug benefit.
This leads us to question whether House Republicans are able to state a claim for which relief can be granted or if federal courts even have subject matter jurisdiction. The executive branch is in charge of enforcing the law and plans to do so, only a year later than originally planned. This is not a failure to faithfully execute the law. What we really have here is a political disagreement, and in the past the courts have ruled that such disagreements aren't injuries for the legal system to address.
As such, this lawsuit may very well be thrown out of court based on the pleadings, without the case ever going to trial.
In the meantime, the Republicans seem determined to shoot themselves in the foot. Polls have found the lawsuit to be unpopular, with one showing Americans oppose it by 57 to 41 percent.
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said the lawsuit is the first step to impeaching Obama. While Boehner and other top Republicans claim that impeachment is off the table, such extremists as former Republican vice-presidential candidate and Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin and Rep. Steve King (R-IA) have called for impeaching Obama.
Impeachment is even more unpopular than the lawsuit, with polls finding Americans oppose it by a two-to-one margin. Democrats have used the lawsuit and the threat of impeachment to raise millions of dollars in campaign funds.
We won't see the lawsuit get underway until after Labor Day. It could result in political suicide for the Republicans in the midterm elections, costing them both houses of Congress.

Stop what you're doing and prepare to have a dance party at your desk, in your head, in your bed–wherever you are right now! Because the music video for Ricky Martin's World Cup song "Vida" was just released and it's awesome.
The Spanglish song sees Ricky dancing on the beach with plenty of scantily clad ladies and gentlemen as they dance and gyrate up a storm.
I'm super into it. Although I do wish Ricky had taken off his shirt, too.
At least now we know how those sunset photos fit into the video. And fun fact, there's even a shot of two speedo-ed men holding hands. It's precious. I cannot wait to hear this song a billion more times over the next few months. Ricky Martin for all! Check out the video above and tell us how much you love it in the comments below!

Following the second recorded beheading of an American journalist, President Barack Obama vowed Wednesday the U.S. will bring the Islamic State of Iraq and Greater Syria (ISIS) to justice according to a report by the Khaleej Times.
"We will not be intimidated" by the killing of journalist Steven Sotloff, Obama stated while speaking at the Nordea Concert Hall in Tallinn, Estonia. "Those who make the mistake of harming Americans will learn that we will not forget and that our reach is long and that justice will be served."
The recent graphic depiction of Sotloff's execution marks the second time that ISIS has made a pronounced broadcasted effort to intimidate their enemies; the first being of James Foley, an American freelancer who had been missing in Syria prior to his death.
Caitlin Hayden, spokeswoman for the National Security Council said in a statement Wednesday that the U.S. intelligence community had analyzed the footage of Sotloff and reached the judgment that it is authentic."
However, Obama's administration's plan for the Middle East involves the containment of their efforts rather than a seek-and-destroy mission aimed to eliminate the group entirely. Wiping out the extremist group would be an unachievable goal
"Our objective is to make sure that [ISIS] is not an ongoing threat to the region," Obama said according to NPR. "And we can accomplish that."
"As we've seen with al Qaeda, there are always going to be remnants that can cause havoc."
According to the president, the most we can hope for is to mitigate the threat that the militants present to the region and to the foreign workers who operate in that area. Obama cautioned, however, that the campaign will take time, and that we should not expect this operation to be a "one-week or a six-month proposition," according to Time.
With a warning that "threats evolve" Obama has also emphasized the need for a regional and global effort to make a lasting impact on the extremist group in the Middle East. To that end, he has tasked key aides with building an international coalition to assist in these efforts. With international help, Obama said, it's possible to shrink ISIS "to the point where it's a manageable problem."

Head of Rafael India Office, Col. (Ret.) Yossi Turjeman
Consul General of Israel to Bangalore, Mr. Menachem Kanafi,
Honorable representatives of the Israeli Defence Industries,
Ladies and Gentlemen,
Imagine what a 10 year old boy feels like, when rockets and missiles fall down from the sky towards his home and his neighborhood.
Now, imagine what this boy feels like, when one day, he starts witnessing, time after time, how the system you see in front of you, detects, engages and intercepts these deadly rockets and missiles in mid-air.
Ladies and Gentlemen,
This is a very special moment for us.
It is special for 2 reasons:
Firstly, because it is an opportunity to display what I believe is one of the most amazing, impressive and effective defence solutions developed in recent times.
But secondly, it is special to us because we are displaying these solutions for the first time here in India, an intimate partner of Israel in our mutual strive to protect and defend our citizens.
What you see in front of you today is the fruit of a close cooperation between some of the best minds in the Israeli defence establishment. Minds that came together with one major goal in their eyes - how to protect human lives.
And, ladies and Gentlemen, the result was way beyond anyone's expectations.
In the recent operation Pillar of Defence, when 1500 rockets were fired by terrorists, targeting over half of Israel's population including Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, everyone watched with awe and admiration how the Iron Dome performed. We will thankfully never know how many people owe their lives to this system and to the people who developed it.
The Iron Dome proved itself as a remarkable asset, not only because it saved numerous lives. It also clearly prevented an escalation of the conflict, and allowed the decision makers in Israel to conduct the operation and achieve its goals, in a calculated and efficient manner.
Ladies and Gentlemen, the Iron Dome is the epitome of Israeli defence innovation, creativity, and professionality. It is also a symbol of how we cherish human lives, and of our determination to protect our people.
It is therefore a great source of pride for us to present these systems here in India, in one of the most important aero shows in the world.
Thank you very much.

Cupertino, CA
New Line Cinema and MGM have released the first image of the Dwarf brothers Nori (Jed Brophy), Ori (Adam Brown) and Dori (Mark Hadlow) from Peter Jackson's The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey.
These three brothers, all sons of the same mother, could not be more different from each other. Dori, the oldest, spends much of his time watching out for Ori, the youngest; making sure he's not caught a chill or got himself killed by Wargs or Goblins. Nobody quite knows what Nori gets up to most of the time, except that it's guaranteed to be dodgy and quite probably, illegal. Dori, Nori and Ori are intensely loyal to each other – and whilst they are perfectly happy fighting amongst themselves, woe-betide anyone who means harm to one of these brothers.

Oh, dear.
Is it just me or how the hell did Dwarves become a fantasy staple?! Are they in any way credible warriors. NO. So what hell happened? How did it happen?
J.R.R. Tolkein decided to make them warriors in the Hobbit for the most part before fantasy was really fleshed out over the years. Though in the book they do more running than fighting at times, so who knows LOL.
I do not think they look like what I expected but that is not to say I am disappointed, no in fact I am thrilled to see these pictures surface and I am happy so far with what it is looking like.
Fuck yeah!
Hell yeah!
Triple YEAH!
Yeah yeah!
Oh Yeah!
Can I get on this band wagon? LOL

Fischer Homes Meeting: Monotony Code Issue
July 6, 2013 General News 1 Comment
As of our resident meeting of January 15th, 2013, and due to the hard work of Wade Achenbach, we have been able to attain the legal opinion of a top law firm concerning our legal options in relation to the Willows developer and Fischer Homes.
The most promising, although a reach, is the following:
"The Willows homeowners might have a possible cause of action under a theory of either promissory estoppel or constructive fraud regarding the construction of "production homes" in the Willows neighborhood, instead of "custom homes." Promissory estoppel is especially difficult to prove under Indiana law, and while perhaps easier, constructive fraud will still require showing a substantial difference between custom and production homes. The most efficient use for either theory would likely be in negotiating with the developer."
Like I said, it's a stretch.
With that said, Neil Merrell and I met with Brad Kriner, Division Manager and Erin Hundley, Sales Manager of Fischer Homes on Monday, June 24th, 2013. In the meeting Neil and I made it abundantly clear that the residents of the Willows, in particular the custom home residents, wanted to address the over building of the "Keller" model (as well as a number of other cosmetic issues – i.e., the flags in at the front entrance). As expected, Kriner and Hundley took the Fischer stand that they were within the "Fischer monotony code". Neil and I stressed that that code was meaningless and they intentionally violated it by putting two Keller homes next to each other. They acknowledged this was a bad decision in hind sight. Besides stressing the monotony code we continually emphasized the desire to increase the aesthetics and variety of homes available in the neighborhood. Just changing the elevations didn't differentiate the homes enough. Fischer's response was that they only have 5 floor plans available to build in the Westbury section and the Keller is the most popular.
After an hour of going back and forth, first pushing our position and then listening to theirs, it was clear that a decision was not going to be made at that time and that they would have to go back to their team to discuss what options Fischer is willing to offer the residents of the Willows.
Neil and I are scheduled to meet with them again on July 16th to learn of their plans. It is our hope that Fischer is will to work with the residents of the Willows and offer a resolution that will appease the concerns of the community. Upon the conclusion of our meeting of July 16th, we will schedule another resident meeting to discuss what the residents feel the next step(s) should be.
On a side note concerning the developer, we have learned that in-order to start the HOA at least 90% of the lots have to be sold. We are still investigating the delegation of voting rights of lots that have been purchased but not yet improved (home constructed). This brings into account the lots owned by Fischer and Ryland that have yet to be built on.
If you have any other comments/complaints/suggestions etc. please feel free to contact Tim Cramer or Neil Merrell or leave a comment.
One Comment to "Fischer Homes Meeting: Monotony Code Issue"
- Brooke RochesterJuly 15, 2013 at 8:16 pmHi, Tim/Neil! I went to get a pedicure (yes, this does have something to do with the monotony code!) the other day and was chatting with the owner. She was talking with me about where I live and come to find out, she is building a Fischer home in the neighborhood (Lot #28). They have not started to break ground yet and do not expect to until next year. However, she did inform me that it is in fact the Keller model. If I am correct, that means there will be 2 Keller homes on each side of another Fischer model home. If you have any further questions, let me know. Thanks! Brooke

What started as a bet between a guy named Ola and a guy named Jørgen has turned into that rarest of Web phenomena: A âcrowdsourcedâ site that isnât Astroturfed, has a substantial following, and, most importantly, has a noble goal: Collecting one million pictures of giraffes by 2011. Ladies, gentlemen: OneMillionGiraffes.
Unlike many flash-in-the-pan Internet trends, OneMillionGiraffes has been going strong for almost a year: When the Telegraph interviewed the siteâs creator in August of 2009, two months after its launch, it was up to 134,227. Currently, itâs at 877 740: So, 122 260 left to go in the next 178 days.
If you want to see who will win the bet, you could follow OneMillionGiraffes on Twitter or Facebook .
Of course, try to paint some giraffes and help this man to win the bet. Use your imagination

I train myself to behave and operate as though every firearm (including mine) is ALWAYS loaded, chambered, safeties off, and waiting for a pull of the trigger. I drill it into my head constantly. It is my first assumption on seeing any firearm. It's no coincidence that this parallels one of the Four Basic Rules. Simple training makes for strong training because that's how the brain works.
An empty chamber doesn't improve my safety, it conflicts with my training and therefore presents a hazard. God forbid I ever have to draw in self-defense, but there will be nothing for me to waste time or brain cells on besides putting the muzzle on target and pulling the trigger.
If you TRULY want to make racking the slide part of your draw, then you need to rack the slide EVERY TIME you pull the gun out of its holster. That means when you disarm to go to bed, take the gun out to clean it or show it to a friend, whatever. If you EVER pull the gun out without racking the slide, you are defeating your own attempts at "automation" by introducing a variable. Something to consider: You're approached as you're leaving the grocery store or mall, with your hands full of bags (a perfectly feasible scenario). Most people don't realize that you will actually have to MAKE your hands release the bags; they won't do it "instinctively." The biggest delay is not in dropping what you're holding, it's in making the conscious decision to tell your hands to do it.

Hi Gurus,
I have a problem with a custom value routine. Inside it a new value for xkwert is calculated but it never goes to its corresponding xkomv-kwert field. So the kwert field for my condition remains the same.
I've been debugging the code, mainly "LV61AA55" and I've seen that there are two ways to get to the routines execution:
1º )
* execute condition value formula not changing xkomv * will normally be processed in xkomv_kwert_ermitteln IF xkomv-kofrm NE 0 AND wertformel EQ space AND komp-kposn NE 0. rettkomv = xkomv. xkwert = xkomv-kwert. frm_kondi_wert-nr = xkomv-kofrm. PERFORM (frm_kondi_wert) IN PROGRAM saplv61a IF FOUND. xkomv = rettkomv. ENDIF.
* calculation formula IF xkomv-kofrm NE 0. wertformel = 'X'. xkwert = xkomv-kwert. frm_kondi_wert-nr = xkomv-kofrm. PERFORM (frm_kondi_wert) IN PROGRAM saplv61a IF FOUND. xkomv-kwert = xkwert. ENDIF.
As you guys can see, on the second one it takes the xkwert value correctly into xkomv-kwert but in my case it never pass through that code inside form "xkomv_kwert_ermitteln". On my case, it always go through the point 1 and never assign the xkwert to the xkomv.
I show you the code here:
Custom routine:
form frm_kondi_wert_930. zkomv[] = xkomv[]. case xkomv-kschl. when 'ZVAC'. clear: kwert_aux, kbetr_aux, komv_aux. read table zkomv with key kschl = 'ZIMP'. if sy-subrc = 0. kwert_aux = xkomv-kwert * zkomv-kbetr / 100000. xkwert = xkomv-kwert - kwert_aux. endif. when 'Z234'. clear: kwert_aux, kbetr_aux, komv_aux. read table zkomv with key kschl = 'ZIMP' into komv_aux. if sy-subrc = 0. kwert_aux = xkomv-kwert * zkomv-kbetr / 100000. xkwert = xkomv-kwert - kwert_aux. endif. endform.
Here are my condition specs:
So do you have any idea on solving this problem?
Thanks in advance,
Edited by: John Smith on Jun 18, 2009 4:17 PM
Dear John,
Were you able to solve the problemb ? I am having the same problem in pricing ?
Appreciate if you can help.
Hi, what I did was change the condition properties as you can see on this screenshot:
Sorry for the late reply, hope it helps anyway.
Edited by: John Smith on Mar 3, 2010 11:55 AM
Image at last post.
Hi ,
I did the changes according to the screenshot attached by you. It didn't work. Basically when you change the qty. the price doesn't get updated. Can you be able to tell what was the actual change ?
Hi Rupak,
Well... are you sure is the same case as yours? do you use a calculation formula? If you look the code of mine, I take the KBETR from another condition type and then calculate the value for the proper one (ZVAC, Z234)
Can you post your calculation formula code to analyze it?
Hi John,
I am facing a similar problem. I tried to open the screen shot posted by you but its not showing up now.
My code is:
CONCATENATE c_varcond_prefix l_varcond INTO l_varcond SEPARATED BY space. * Now find the corresponding ZA00 with the same variant condition READ TABLE tkomv into wl_tkomv WITH KEY kposn = komp-uepos kschl = c_za00 varcond = l_varcond. IF sy-subrc = 0. * xkomv-kawrt = wl_tkomv-kbetr. xkwert = wl_tkomv-kbetr. ENDIF.
However as you mentioned this is getting overwritten by standard code. The calculation type is a percentage. Can you please tell me how you solved the issue?
i have the sanme problem in RV64A903
The xkwert is changed but it has no effect.
I have open an call.
If i get an answer from SAP, i will tell it you.
Hi Florian,
please help. We do have the same issue. Did you get a reply from SAP?
please have a look on this Change "multidimensional condition"
The value can not be changed in the default was the answer from SAP.
I debug it again and use a ENHANCEMENT-POINT to change it.
I use this:
ENHANCEMENT-POINT xkomv_bewerten_04 SPOTS es_saplv61
I hope this will help you
Florian Martin
This finally paid for my 3 weeks hard work!!
ENHANCEMENT-POINT xkomv_bewerten_04 SPOTS es_saplv61 worked just perfect to my requirement!!
Thanks Martin!!

Virginia Gardens, Fl. with a population of less than 2500, has a 'Bear Cat' military vehicle. Its steel armor hull incorporates bullet-proof glass windows and can accommodate up to 12 personnel or half of the entire police force. If the police aren't wearing full combat gear, they can fit the entire City Council too.
The vehicle can negotiate a side slope of 330 degrees and gradient of 600 if it can find one in the flat town. The Bear Cat has a maximum speed of 80 to 90mph and can cover the entire length of the city in 8 seconds or so. At 9 tons, the vehicle weighs more than City Hall. It can utilize its back-up camera or simply crush anything behind it.
The chief says they can use it when people are stranded in their homes due to flooding conditions and need to be evacuated. In the old days we used hip boots.
Are we over compensating or does the U.S. military have way more big combat machines than they can use?
Kara Dansky, an attorney for the American Civil Liberties Union says she is uncomfortable with these vehicles designed for combat responding to calls in small town America. To her, military-grade equipment has no place in civilian law enforcement and says her research has shown it can actually increase violence.
The Dallas County Sheriff's office uses a 19-ton, diesel-operated behemoth to serve warrants.
We certainly don't want to increase violence with the appearance of these war machines, but how can a police force do its job effectively?
Running up to a house in full combat gear, pounding on the door and screaming 'Police, open up, we have a warrant' is too scary and to tell the truth, a little 'pushy'.
Let's back off here and 'serve' the public, not terrorize it needlessly.
Strategy number 1. This is a no brainer. Issue all warrants during Girl Scout Cookie season and dress the officers like girl and boy scout-leaders. Simply walk up to the door holding a box of cookies in plain sight into which a warrant has been secreted. Believe me, the door will open. No replacement factor here. With the prospect of Thin Mints at a discounted price, you make a sale and serve a warrant at the same time.
Strategy number 2, Dress like 7th Day Adventists and serve them on a Sunday. A persistent knock on the door usually does it.
Strategy number 3. Approach the home after school dressed like a local high school band member. Blow a low 'C' on the tuba and expect a smiling adult at the door with a couple of bucks for a donation.
Has 'Protect and Serve' morphed into 'Protect and Surge?'

I tried some Wolf 40S&W once in my P229 with no luck. It didn't want to feed. Almost like the case was too abrasive to get reliably stripped from the magazine. Ran the rest of it through a G23 and my friends USP compact without any issues though.
my AK (SGL21) is fairly new so it's only seen about 1000rds. all of it Wolf. it doesn't even seem to care what direction you load the ammo in the magazine. it fires both the bullet and the steel case down range with prejudice and without any malfunctions so far.
I don't have much experience with Wolf but I've had good luck with TulAmmo. It's my understanding that both are made in the same factory in Russia so it shouldn't make a difference.

As the battle in Libya between rebels and Muammar el-Qaddafi's regime grows increasingly violent and protests and uprisings engulf the Arab world, it's easy to forget that Africa's largest nation has been engaged in its own—albeit more quiet—revolution. In a referendum in January, the people of Southern Sudan overwhelmingly supported the division of the country into two. Although it capped more than two decades of civil war between the southern and northern regions of Sudan, the vote was relatively peaceful and a formal declaration of independence by Southern Sudan will be made this July.
"I think when we look back at how the Middle East is changing right now, we need to include Southern Sudan as part of this revolutionary process," says history doctoral student Marie Grace Brown. A scholar of nationalism, Brown says she initially became interested in studying Sudan because the country defies easy categorizations as Middle Eastern or African. "Internally as well," Brown says, "Sudan has historically been torn on how to identify itself—an issue now being directly addressed in the referendum."
"Women were clearly taking an active part in the Sudanese nation-building process, but this is something that has really been excluded from any of the political histories you read about modern-day Sudan."
– Marie Grace Brown
Brown's own research explores how Sudanese women participated in constructing Sudan's national identity during the country's independence movement in the mid 1900s. In post-colonial settings, Brown explains, women's bodies are often used as symbols of the need to be free, but their voices and interests can take a back seat to anti-imperialist or nationalist movements. "I'm interested in the ways women have actively engaged in nation-building," she says.
At the center of Brown's analysis is the tobe, a garment that Sudanese women wrap around their bodies when outside their homes or in the presence of non-related males. In 1952, the Sudanese Women's Union—Sudan's first political party for women—declared that the adoption of the tobe as the national costume for women was integral to women's gaining increased economic and social rights. After that, Brown argues, "women activists transformed this square bolt of simple cotton cloth into an important symbol of national distinction and cultural authenticity."
These activists used the tobe to define what the Sudanese woman looks like, both to themselves and to the wider world. The garment sent messages like, 'Sudanese women are modest' and 'Sudanese women do not dress like their former British colonizers or their Egyptian neighbors to the north.' And, by declaring the tobe as "authentic" and "traditional," activists were able to use it to forge their entry into new public spaces. For example, the garment was originally reserved for married women, but young women started wearing it when they began attending school in the early 1900s. In addition, activists would make sure to dress in a tobe when lobbying for issues like education for women, the right for women to vote, equitable pay for work and increased maternity leave.
"In addition to giving them an air of authority—many of these activists were under 20 at the time—wearing the tobe also conveyed that feminist messages were not imported, but were indigenous—in keeping with local traditions and, especially in the north, with Islamic values," Brown says.
Brown also argues that tobes carried an additional layer of meaning because women used them as a stage to broadcast political messages. They would refer to some tobe styles with names that reflected political issues and events. One, for example, was called "Message from London," alluding to the fact that many tobes came from the textile mills of Sudan's former colonizer. Another, dubbed "Police Siren," came out the same year that the Khartoum police force got its first squad cars. In the 1960s, names like "Women's Liberation" and "Freedom" were common. While most of these monikers came about informally and organically, one Manchester tobe maker actually contacted Sudanese activists requesting labels to stitch into the garments.
"This shows me that women were clearly taking an active part in the Sudanese nation-building process," Brown says, "but this is something that has really been excluded from any of the political histories you read about modern-day Sudan."
Part of the reason for this, she explains, is that historians depend on written records, but because of high levels of illiteracy among Sudanese women and the small community of readers that exist, there isn't much writing to sift through. And, subsequent to Sudan's independence in 1956, many of these activists found themselves in tension with the state as they aligned with the Communist Party to push for more robust workers' and women's rights and opposed the move toward Sharia law, which was instated in 1983. Women who did write and publish sometimes destroyed their work to protect themselves from legal action.
As a result, when Brown went to Sudan last fall on a Faye Rattner Doctoral Research Grant to conduct archival research, she found that she quickly had to shift strategies. By word-of-mouth, she sought out women who were involved in the independence movement as well as present-day activists to acquire first-hand anecdotal data. "I hope one of the contributions of my research is finding new ways to look for and elevate women's voices," Brown says. "In situations like this, we need to find alternate sites of expression, and we've really found it here in the ways women are using fashion."
Brown sees both challenges and opportunities ahead for Sudanese women as they prepare for their new political reality. With most of non-Muslim population (Christians and those who follow indigenous religions) living Southern Sudan, the Sudanese government is hinting at moving toward a more restrictive version of Sharia law. "This means that women in the north are really going to have to renegotiate their relationship to the state," Brown says. "In the south, an entire government needs to fill its positions, and there is so much need for infrastructure and resources. We can hope and advocate that women are represented in all these avenues. And I think there's an opportunity for women in the south—where there are nearly 100 languages spoken and close to 50 ethnic groups—to help mediate what it is that will unite this new country."
