Rebel coalition Seleka seized the Central African Republic's capital Bangui on Sunday following the collapse of a two-month-old peace deal. Here is key background on the rebels:
The rebel groups in the coalition -- Seleka means "alliance" in the country's Sango language -- were signatories to the 2008 Libreville Comprehensive Peace Agreement with the government.
Since September, however, dissident factions of the main signatory rebel groups have banded together as Seleka.
The alliance is made up of factions of the Union of Democratic Forces for Unity, the Wa Kodro Salute Patriotic Convention and the Convention of Patriots for Justice and Peace.
Seleka's leader is Michel Djotodia, who had been named deputy prime minister and defence minister in a hurriedly brokered power-sharing government unveiled last month in a bid to restore peace after the rebels quickly overran large swathes of the impoverished country in December.
Many of the fighters are ex-mutineers and former militiamen from earlier rebel movements. They come mainly from the north of the chronically unstable country.
Seleka numbers between 1,000 and 2,000 fighters, according to Roland Marchal, a specialist of Central African conflicts at the Paris-based National Centre for Scientific Research.
The Central African Republic's army has at most 3,500 men, though it had been bolstered by troops sent in from around the region.
The Seleka rebels say the government has not honoured peace accords signed between 2007 and 2011 that offered financial support and other help for insurgents who laid down their arms.
As they made gains on the ground, they also began demanding that President Francois Bozize step down.
Ill-equipped, unmotivated and poorly trained, the Central African Republic's army offered little resistance to the Seleka fighters.
Some observers believe that even if the rebellion is mostly made up of former Central African rebels, it also includes former army troops and fighters from countries including Chad and Sudan -- claims the rebels deny.
According to Marchal, "given the rebellion's origins in the north, we can assume there are many Muslims in their ranks."
As for the fighters' nationalities, he said, it is a region where "people come and go between borders that almost don't exist."
A close ally of Bozize, Chad helped bring him to power in 2003 and to rid the north of rebel movements in late 2010.
Chad sent peacekeeping troops into the Central African Republic as the rebels advanced, and played mediator in the failed peace deal by hosting a summit of the Economic Community of Central African States.
But Chad, the region's military powerhouse, refrained from stopping the rebels' advance, fuelling speculation that Bozize was dropped by his old ally, Chadian President Idriss Deby Itno.

Fierce Beauty: Choosing to Stand for What Matters Most
In Fierce Beauty, Kim Meeder shares stories from her wown life that challenge women to take a good, long look at what they see in their own reflection. To do a thorough self-examination and see if instead of worshipping God, they are now worshipping their own designer-influenced images.
Meeder challenges every woman to let her life have a unique value and purpose, not found in self-entitlement or worldly standards. ith straightforward truth and deep, life-changing encouragement, Fierce beauty will empower women to choose who they will honor with their life, to pursue their true destiny, the will of their Creator--and by doing so, to discover the joy and fulfillment as they lay aside stereotypes, turn from selfish ambition, and confidently impact causes that matter in their community.

- Brave. Challenging. Honest. by Hannah Heather on 1/17/2012
"We are not Christians simply because we call our selves such. For me, being a Christian means turning away from my selfish, self-centered life and turning toward Christ and trusting Him to lead me."
Fierce Beauty encourages us to face the battles in our lives with faith and courage and to keep our eyes on our King. This book reminds us what the Bible says in Romans 12:2, "Don't copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will know what God wants you to do and you will know how good and pleasing and perfect his will really is."
As I read, I could feel the authentic, raw emotions that Kim felt during each life experience. I wanted to know more about each person and their lives as she reviled them. I felt each pain, each tear and each victory. She had a real way of reminding me of my own insecurities and self worth as well as where it should be coming from. Read this book and you will put things back into perspective.
The unfortunately thing is, that as I finished the book, I found my self wanting more. As the mother of four girls and the oldest of four sisters, I see the lie that has entangled humans since the beginning of time. Idol worship. Self worship. Self worth. I felt that this book just skimmed the surface of just how important these topics are. This book hit essential points, but only superficially. I felt the discussion questions in the back where the most helpful and the most challenging to put these things into action in our every day lives. James 1:22 "Don't just merely listen to the word… Do what it says."
- awesome book! by 1kyteacher on 12/22/2011
I have just had the opportunity to review Kim Meeder's book Fierce Beauty: Choosing to Stand for What Matters Most, and I am pleased by what I have read. This is an excellent book for women who wish to strengthen their relationship with God.
In her book, Meeder illustrates how sin, any sin, can come between us and our Father. She uses personal experiences to show that our worth, our beauty, comes from God. We all struggle with something that pulls us away from our relationship with God, putting us before Him. In each of her accounts, Meeder clearly shows a parallel of how the event symbolizes sin in our lives. I liked how she saw the beauty in her experiences and sought out God's purpose in those experiences. It is clear that Meeder believes all things have a purpse, and that purpose is to honor God. She clearly points to using whatever we have in our lives, whether it be a gift or a smile, to encourage others, to steer them toward God. Meeder drives home the fact that we are to be warriors for Christ and all that he stands for.
This book can be used in a book study by using the discussion questions in the back.
**I received a copy of this book from WaterBrook Multnomah Publishers for the purpose of an honest review.

So, while doing a little home networking, I decided to place my iMac on a ethernet connection. Well I plugged in the ethernet cable and normally it will recognize the present cable but not immediately recognize an internet connection (normal), but it is saying that the cable is not even in. Does anyone know what would cause this? I have taken the same cable and plugged it into my MacBook and my MacBook recognizes the cable and registers on the DHCP server.
Any suggestions are deeply appreciated! Thanks!
When I plug an ethernet cable into my MacBook and plug the other end into my iMac, my iMac will recognize the cable [O.o]... the weirdness continues...

The good news: the number of women starting their own businesses is on the rise. The bad news: the number of words describing this process is also on the rise, hence the birth of "fempreneur," "femterprise," and "domestecutives." [TimesOnline]

If you've opened a women's magazine recently, then you probably know what's in this season. "Investment" fashion! For the new economy, editors and luxury advertisers have been throwing around terms like "value," "quality," "green," "key pieces" and "timeless" as though they had some, well, timeless meaning.
The April Marie Claire is all about the most over-saturated trend in lady mags today — being an eco-friendly recessionista through the acquisition of more things. Oh, the irony.
At the turn of the 21st century, writes Salon's Rebecca Traister, "Americans wanted to eat well, dress fine and live lavishly." And glossy magazines delivered. But with the economy in a downward spiral?

People whose job it is to shill luxury brands are flipping the fuck out right about now. According to Guy Trebay's panicky piece in yesterday's New York Times, everything, everything is on sale.

Fallen Heroes
Pittsburgh is mourning three police officers who were gunned down in the line of duty. Needless to say, these kind of tragedies are the most difficult and challenging subject matter for an editorial cartoonist to tackle. My usual smart-alecky, warped sense of humor can't help me here. I have to dramatically shift gears and tap another side of my brain to find a sensitive way to illustrate our communal grief. The first cartoon referenced how the city's Steelers-centric identity was now changing. In the aftermath of this horrific event, we are all members of the Pittsburgh Police fan club.
Next, because this wasn't the only recent shooting tragedy in the country, I couldn't avoid addressing our gun culture. The third cartoon I drew was my Brewed On Grant strip that takes place in a diner. In this cartoon I simply pointed out how often we take for granted the risks taken by the police every day.
And finally, today's cartoon picks up on the story reported in the P-G that the 911 operator failed to mention that there were guns in the house. The city has agreed to make changes in the system. If only we could change the ease with which people aquire guns.
(Beginning on April 20th my blog entries will be more regular. As you can see, everything before this post is from my trip to Tampa to cover the Super Bowl.)

Updated version
comment:4 Changed 8 years ago by matthijs
I just run into the issue as well, so I'd be grateful if the patch could be committed.
I've added an updated version, since code in question was moved to a different file in r9001. Since the patch is slightly hard to read: All this does is put a big if around all the Site-related code. This increases the indent of that code a bit, making the diff so messy... If you apply the patch and run svn diff -x -b, you can see the changes a lot more clearly (ignore space change).

I've got no intention to nag, but could somebody (adrian?) commit this rather trivial patch? It's already marked as accepted and breaks the default install for some people...
comment:10 Changed 6 years ago by floledermann
- Component changed from Core framework to Contrib apps
- milestone set to 1.2
- Version changed from 1.0 to 1.1
This is still present in 1.1.1, can we get this bug fixed in 1.2 please?
However, the patch would probably have to be rewritten using RequestSite, which was probably invented after the patch for this issue had been submitted.
comment:11 Changed 6 years ago by floledermann
I just looked into this - in my opinion a much simpler patch is sufficient:
--- django/contrib/contenttypes/views.py +++ django/contrib/contenttypes/views.py @@ -1,6 +1,6 @@ from django import http from django.contrib.contenttypes.models import ContentType -from django.contrib.sites.models import Site +from django.contrib.sites.models import Site, RequestSite from django.core.exceptions import ObjectDoesNotExist def shortcut(request, content_type_id, object_id): @@ -54,7 +54,10 @@ # Fall back to the current site (if possible). if object_domain is None: try: - object_domain = Site.objects.get_current().domain + if Site._meta.installed: + object_domain = Site.objects.get_current().domain + else: + current_site = RequestSite(request).domain except Site.DoesNotExist: pass
If an explicit relationship to Site objects is established in a model (this is covered by the lines above my changes) it could be argued that the method should fail if the sites app is not installed.
Unfortunately i do not have the infrastructure here to create a real patch against the trunk and run tests... I hope this helps, can somebody help to get this into 1.2?

Not critical for 1.2.
comment:13 Changed 6 years ago by anonymous
Right, what's the rush for ? It's been, what, only 2 years open; other (also trivial) patches are lingering for 4 years or more...
comment:14 Changed 6 years ago by reconbot
I can confirm that floledermann's patch works on django trunk rev 13023. I'd love to see this in the trunk.
comment:15 Changed 6 years ago by lasko
The current uploaded patch I think it more bloated than is needed and feel that floledermanns patch (http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/8960#comment:11) would be better suited for check in. I can also confirm that floledermann's patch works on django trunk rev 13237.
comment:16 Changed 6 years ago by CarlFK
Until the code is fixed, how about fixing the docs:
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/instances/#django.db.models.Model.get_absolute_url should say "You will need the sites framework installed."
http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/2319 patched the sites docs, but I think that's an odd place for that bit of info. If I discover get_absolute_url and "View on site", I have no way of knowing that I need to now go read the site docs.

Backport of [13980] from trunk. Some items could be considered features
(i.e. supporting RequestSite in various contrib apps), others are definite
