PREVIEWS: "Daredevil," "Uncanny X-Men," & More Marvel Comics On Sale August 3, 2016
Comic Books
Every week you'll get a brand-new comic cover theme game! The game works like this: I'll show you three covers. They all have something in common, whether it be a character, a trait all three characters share, a connection between all three characters, a locale, a creator, SOMEthing. And it isn't something obvious like "They all have prices!" "They all have logos!" "They all feature a man!" "They are all Avengers (who ISN'T?)!" "They're all dead (who HASN'T been killed off?)!" "They've all been cloned (who HASN'T been cloned?)!" "They're all mutants! (who ISN'T a mutant?)" "They're all legacy heroes (who ISN'T a legacy hero nowadays?)!" etc.
In addition, please note that you must have some familiarity with comic book history to correctly guess these comics. You cannot guess the connective theme just by looking at the covers solely, you must have some knowledge beyond just the covers. The connections will ONLY have to do with connections in the actual comic books (so no incidental connections like "they share the same last names of Vice Presidents," etc. Now, if the three characters were each named Gerald Ford, that'd be another story, as that'd no longer be incidental).
If you come up with an answer that works outside of what I intended, I'll give you credit (well, provided I think it fits, of course).
One more thing – if there are floating heads on the cover, ignore them! They don't mean anything! Same thing with corner boxes!
If you think you know the answer, e-mail me at firstname.lastname@example.com. Don't answer in the comments. This way, people who check in at different times of the day can still get credit for answering it correctly!
Here is an archive of all the past cover theme games, plus their answers. Before each new installment, I'll post the answers to the previous week's game.
Good luck and enjoy!
This one is really tricky, but in an awesome way! It's one of my fave recent challenges.
I've found *A* connection. We'll see.
I liked your guess, Niels. Enough that I'll use it for a future installment. It was technically right for this one, but as you noted, it could work even better if a change was made.
To keep anyone else from going with your guess, I changed the first cover.
Cool, I'll see if I can come up with anything for the new combo (nothing yet).
I have also decided to change the second cover just to make the theme a bit easier. I decided it was too messed up of me to have 2/3 of the covers be tricky.
I haven't read any of the New52 books, so I have no idea about DCnU Hawkman. Is he still a museum curator? Is he still even Carter Hall? Is the reincarnation stuff still valid?
And I'm shocked that Bart Allen and Lois Lane would have ANYTHING in common.
Each cover has a different DC logo.

Dear all

Which is the best way/trail ? I heard there ia s bike trail but can't understand from where it starts.

Thank you!
Morning travellers!
I am planning a 2 week trip in Slovenia with a detour into Istria.
Current plan - Ljubljana - Bovec - Bled (plus Bohinj?) - Rovinj (Croatia) - Ljubljiana.
I am travelling by public transport and, as I am planning to see Ljubljana at the end of my trip, am hoping to get a bus to Bovec on the same day as I arrive. I have checked the connection works on http://www.ap-ljubljana.si/en/ but want to know if I need to book. This will be in mid August so peak holiday time. I'm…
I am planning to travel by train from Venice to Lake Bled in September via Gorizia and Nova Gorika and am wondering which is the best booking site to use for price and dependability. Also will be travelling between ljubljana and Rovinj, probably by bus and, again, I am seeing a reliable and reasonably priced booking site.
I would like to do a 3 day / 2 night hike in Triglav National Park during the second week of September. I'm looking for assistance and feedback on a possible route. I know I want the route to include Triglav Lakes Valley. I think I would like to start at Blato Valley (Planina Blato 1147m) and found route information from there to Koča Pri Triglavskih Jezerih 1685m.
I would like to change the route as follows:
Day 1: Planina Blato to Zasavska koča na Prehodavcih, stay at this hut…
Hello, we're trying to decide whether to stay in Bohinjska Bistrica or Bled in October. We will be there for 4 nights for hiking and outdoor pursuits. For that reason, we are much more drawn toward Bohinj. However, we do like to go out in the evening to enjoy a good meal and are a little unsure if there are enough interesting dining options in Bohinjska Bistrica for 4 nights. We have a car, but don't like to drive after dark. I haven't seen much online info on restaurants in Bohinjska…
I am a Scottish backpacker and have been travelling solo through europe the past 2 months.
I have just landed myself a job in Ljubljana working in the Aladin hostel, just outside the city centre. My shifts I work allow me to have a lot of spare time which is great. So i should be here for the next 3 months hopefully.
If anyone happens to find themselves in Ljubljana and wants to do something give me an email.
Hello All,
We plan to travel by train between Nova Gorica and Ljubljana in two weeks time, stopping to visit/hike around Lake Bohinj and Lake Bled. I have few questions and hope someone can help :)
Most important question: do we need to buy train tickets in advance? I went to Slovenske railroad site and while they provide schedule and info, I do not see any way to buy tickets online? Do we need to go to a travel agent or can we assume we'll b able to buy tickets for any train on the…
After reading a few less than stellar reviews about Avant Car rental, I am thinking of canceling the booking I made through AutoEurope and trying another agency. My starting point is Bled so there are only a few other options. Does anyone have any POSITIVE suggestions to share- the negative ones would probably crash the site!! I dont mind paying a little extra for CDW ( my credit card does cover me somewhat) but I dont want to get hosed for 150 Euro for a minor scratch that was probably there…
Hello, my friend and I are planning a trip to Slovenia/Istria for early October. We will have about 2 weeks. We like outdoors, hiking, exploring small towns, history. We do not need a lot of nightlife or clubs, but do appreciate good food and wine. From Ljubljana we will go to the Bohinj area for 4 days to use as a base for hiking and outdoor activities. At the backend of our trip, we plan to spend about 4 days in the Istria region exploring the coast and small towns. We have 2 nights between…
My wife and I plan to visit Predjama Castle and Skokjan or Postojna Caves from Lake Bled. We have 2 full days before we return to Ljubljana. Would we have enough time to add a drive through the Julian Alps rather than going directly to Predjama Castle or would this require an extra day of driving to do it at a reasonably leisurely rate. We aren't traveling till September so we do have enough time to add an extra day to the car rental if needed.

Weather to worsen at Chariot fire
(Time-lapse video shows Chariot fire before on Sunday afternoon. Courtesy of HPWREN system.)
High temperatures, comparatively low humidity and modest winds fed the Chariot fire near Julian on Sunday, and conditions will grow worse Monday, says the National Weather Service. Air temperatures will increase about five degrees, to the low 90s. The relative humidity will fall to 15 percent, making the atmosphere dry. And winds will gust up to 25 mph, spreading fire in a region that only received about half of its normal precipitation during the rainy season that ended on June 30.
Forecasters say winds will be light Monday morning, as air flows west, up mountain slopes, from the desert. But the wind will change direction in the afternoon, arriving from the ocean, and it will be much stronger. The humidity level will peak at about 40 percent in the morning before falling to 15 percent in the afternoon.
Monsoon moisture will flow into the county Monday from Arizona and northern Mexico, producing the sort of high cumulus clouds that were visible on Sunday afternoon. But the weather service says there's little chance that the monsoon will produce dry lightning -- or lightning that can hit the ground, unaccompanied by rain. The wildfire -- which had consumed 2,500 acres by Sunday afternoon -- is burning in an area of the county that only received about 50 percent of its normal precipitation during the rainy reason that ended on June 30. There is no significant rain in the near term forecast. (Story: Rainy season ends in drought.)

If you're not sure you're linked on the correct one, it's the one with a full upper torso shot of Mr. Scott with the American flag hanging behind him. That's the remastered version. All versions with half his face off to the right with a gray/white background are the older, waxy transfer.
Second thing. To those who waited with me for the remaster, all I can say is WOW! It looks beautiful. Detail is strong and the image is once again alive. You can find comparison screen shots of the two version over at blu-ray.com. Their review of the remaster also explains their error in giving such high marks to the first blu-ray pressing of the film.
Only read on if you're either bored or don't fully know what the deal is with the two different versions.
Now that Amazon has combined all Patton reviews to be displayed on all versions of the film, I will sum up my original review of the 40th Anniversary Digi-Book Blu-Ray Edition to encompass a more, `in general' tone. To those wondering why so many people found my review helpful, it was because I researched and found important information about that particular release and felt a duty to inform all future Patton Blu-Ray purchasers that the 40th Anniversary, Digi-Book edition was in fact the same, horrible, DNR mess that had been available on Blu-Ray for a few years prior, just in new packaging.Read more ›
George C. Scott gives the performance of a lifetime as the ego-drive, brilliant, and iconoclastic Patton, marvel of the U.S Army, a man the Germans are convinced is far and away the single best General the Allies have, and they watch him convinced he is the only logical centerpiece for American plans for the impending invasion of Europe. Of course, they didn't understand the politics of the day, or the degree to which Patton was his own worst enemy. Yet the progress of the story on the screen convinces the viewer of the accuracy of the German command's judgments of him; he is at once bold, brilliant, and innovative, willing to improvise as he goes along to seize the opportunity of a given moment, attempting to grab hold of the ever-present chaos of the situation to transform it into an asset he can employ to gain advantage and win the engagement.
Such men as Patton (and MacArthur and others) are uniquely suited for war; they do not ordinarily fare well or survive with much public acclaim during less extreme and bloodcurdling times.Read more ›

Sine Nomine Renaissance Choir
*New Music Director Announced*
Spring Concert 2016:
"Aus Tiefer Not-Out of the Depths:
Music for Lent and Passiontide in 16th & 17th c. Germany"
Sunday, March 20, 2016, 4:30 PM
Rebekah Gilmore, Guest Conductor
Trinity Parish Episcopal Church, 609 Eighth Ave. (at James St.), Seattle
Free will offering
Free parking available in the Skyline garage.
This program explores the Passiontide texts of Protestant Germany and the northern introduction of the polychoral style of the Venetian school. Heinrich Schütz and Hans Leo Hassler, both students of polychoral pioneer, Giovanni Gabrieli, brought this rousing and rhythmic style to Germany. Hassler's Miserere mei Deus uses the same technique to create a gentle and fluid landscape for this famous Lenten text while Schütz offers dynamic interplay between choirs in his Ich bin die Auferstehung und das leben. Orlande de Lassus' In monte Oliveti and Tristis est anima mea offers the root of the Renaissance style that were in the ear of Schütz and Hassler. Other composers of the time being featured include Michael Praetorius, Gesius, Schein and Hakenberger. Join us for an afternoon of rich, double choir texture exploring texts that span the woe of the human condition to the joy of life renewed.

Woah! Nice. Well done model.
No kidding! I could seriously bust a fap to that.
Hey buddy, while you're here, stay a while and make an intro thread. It's the best way we can love you.
Intro thread? Me? That's a thing? Mmmk. Will do.
Yup. Post it here. Also, while you're at it, look at Gobun's guide for new users here. It'll help you get the ball rolling on being a well-respected member of this community. Read some of the other intro threads as well, so you know what a good intro thread is like.
We take these things seriously here.
So serious.

Probably Andy, as he's all-up-ons Mai.

I have an iPad and I want to sync it via wifi. That works fine. Sometimes I mistakenly eject the iPad from iTunes and then it does not synchronize anymore ("searching for my MacBook"). Can I instruct iTunes to search for my iPad again? To undo the eject? I use the newest OS on my MacBook and iPad.
I just tested with my iPhone, and I can get it to reappear in the Devices list simply by quitting iTunes and reopening it (waking up your iPad may help iTunes find it faster). If that doesn't work, simply plug it in via USB and it should stay in.
You can initiate a sync directly from the iPad, the device will then appear in iTunes again as well.

Man charged in brutal assaultJanuary 22,2013
Man charged in brutal assault
HARTFORD A Claremont, N.H. man will be arraigned today in criminal court in White River Junction for allegedly beating his girlfriends brother after an argument.
Wesley Vorhes, 47, was charged with aggravated assault on Sunday in the beating of Robert Schneider, 47, of White River Junction. The incident took place after a night of drinking on Jan. 13 at The Cave in Lebanon, N.H., according to police.
State Trooper Gary Salvatore said Schneider confronted Vorhes for being intimate with another woman at the bar. The two men argued and then left The Cave that evening, the trooper said.
Schneider and Vorhes pulled over on Interstate 89 and picked up where they left off and an altercation ensued where Vorhes knocked Schneider out unconscious, according to Salvatore.
Schneider injuries were a fractured nose, cheek bone, upper jaw and orbital eye socket fracture, Salvatore said.
He also sustained severe nerve damage and will need reconstructive surgery, the trooper said.MORE IN This Just InBURLINGTON As part of a federal effort to dismantle drug trafficking organizations in Vermont,...

Statement Regarding Candidates for UUA President
The use of the democratic process—embodied in our 5th Principle—is fundamental to our faith. The importance of the democratic process in electing our UUA president is reflected in the UUA bylaws that require the Presidential Search Committee (PSC) to nominate at least two candidates for president so there can be a contested election. A contested election allows for an airing and discussion of different visions and priorities for the future of Unitarian Universalism.
Just over one month ago, the PSC fulfilled its mission and nominated two candidates. We are grateful for their service in this new approach to electing our president.
However, one of those candidates has now withdrawn. Our bylaws do not permit the PSC to nominate an additional candidate at this time. I believe it is essential that we fulfill the intent of the bylaws by democratically electing our next president through an election with at least two candidates.
The only process recognized in our bylaws for a candidate not nominated by the PSC to run for president is by petition. To run by petition, our bylaws require that a candidate receive the support of at least twenty five member congregations as reflected by a vote of either the boards of those congregations or of a duly-called meeting of the members of those congregations. Of course, support for this individual's petition to run does in no way preclude a congregation from supporting the petition of another individual who might decide to run by petition before the February 1, 2017 deadline for doing so.
The PSC has forwarded to the Secretary of the Board the name of a candidate whom it vetted through the nominating process. That individual has agreed to run by petition and the name of the candidate will be released soon.
I have asked the Elections Campaign Practices Committee to facilitate the petition process for this candidate and for any other candidate-by-petition that might emerge.
Accordingly, I call upon member congregations to support the democratic process by supporting the petition of this candidate to ensure that we have a contested election for president.
I look forward to the robust discussion of the future of our Unitarian Universalist movement that the campaign for president will foster.
Jim Key, Moderator
February 24, 2016

E64 and E66 errors..Drive replacement?
I am getting an E64 and E66 errors. Obviously the drive is dead, right? I can't get it to boot up at all. I've gotten it to boot up once or twice, but the game starts and locks up once past the menu and loading beings.. Presently BENQ with 1.6...
So do I need a new drive?
Should I just buy a replacement BENQ? Or is there an "upgraded drive" that is easily flashed to 1.6? Can I buy them pre-flashed on ebay?
Do I need to worry about drive spoofing and all that garbage?
Anything I can try with this drive before replacing?
21st August 09 #35
Re: E64 and E66 errors..Drive replacement?
if you buy a new benq drive then you just have to transfer
the dvdkey and ix1.6 hack......
if you buy any other brand drive samsung, hitachi, or liteon, you will
have to spoof the new drive as a benq.
i would just stay with the benq drive.....
make sure the dvd power cable is plugged in all the way and is
in the right direction.....
i would also reflash the drive first, make sure you have a good dump of
the original firmware and key, and make sure you do the erase command
before the write command......
alot of people are getting errors reading then writing skipping the erase.
we all know it does the erase command before the write when you hit
the right button but it's always good to go the extra step to make sure
it has wrote ff's to all areas...
and with you getting random errors like that i would hit erase a couple of
times. before writing

Re: E64 and E66 errors..Drive replacement?
when you get to the status 0x80 sounds like its try to send mtk vendor. if so when its says send hit yes when it says status 0x80 hit the eject button once the tray is out pull you power cord from the xbox. push the tray just a little past half open and turn the console back on should begin to start reading and backing up firmware. from you other post it sounds like you'll need to dump your orignal drive and get the key. what i would do is dump the original drive.
you'll gonna need some things to get started. 1) 360 toolbox and 2)clean version of benq bin. you can get this by doing a dump of the new drive or look on xbins.
ok time to dump the original. should ask you to put a serial number after the command line e.g ben 1234567 12345. remember the number you put in. will probably get the status thing again do the same thing. once you dumped the original you should have the key. if you need a clean version of the benq bin then dump the new drive now use a different serial number. if you found one don't worry about it.
now that you have both bins open 360 toolbox. open the original drives bin on you thumbdrive under backups and the 1234567 then 12345. you want the benofw.bin right click and copy your key. now go the same route and open you your clean copy of benq bin and paste the key to it. you'll need to rename it to match the original ofw.bin in folder 1234567 12345. you now have a clean copy of you benq bin. make a copy a put it somewhere safe.

Papaloa Jewel by troycarneyWatch
©2013-2016 troycarney
Papaloa Jewel. 18″x24″ oil, 12k white gold, 18k and 23k yellow gold on a 20 layer deep hand cut bas-relief. Completed 9/13/13. Papaloa is the name of the outer reef at Tunnels Beach where I grew up here on Kauai. Papaloa Jewel has an interesting beginning. I first started the sketches for this in the shade of Angkor Wat, Siem Reap Cambodia last June. I was dripping with sweet on my sketch book in the extremely hot Cambodian summer. Great place for inspiration with all the ancient art work everywhere you look.
sweet job
Wow. This is stunning!
Thank you everyone for the awesome feed back.
I missed the whole DD thingy.....??? do I get a gift??
So beautiful! For some reason, it almost looks like a digital painting up close. I'm guessing it's because the colors are do vivid. Lovely work!
stunning beauty!the top-left corner cloud looks a little iridescent,is it mix nacre into paint?
Hi, thanks. You are right to see that. It's the texture under the 12k gold leaf. If the painting is seen with the light at a different slight angle it disappears and the painting will tack on another look. All the metallic is genuine gold and the rest is oil paint.
Good grief, WOW.
Aaaaah, this is AMAZING! Fantastic work!
It's beautiful!!! I love to see art in unique mediums
golden wooow
Amazing. I have never seen its like before
Looks great. I'd love to visit Cambodia someday.
This is beautiful!! I love the story of how you got inspired to make this.
This looks awesome. I like how u made the background mountains bluish and the water gold.
great technique!
this is amazing - never seen anything like it - congrats on the DD
This is stunning. I love all of the color contrasts with the gold.
It's like the Great Wave of Kanazawa, but more comforting, tropical, and dare I say more beautiful?
Congrats on the DD! Have a good day~
Looks a bit like hokusai's style, I luv it. ^^
You can see feel the breeze watching this. (:
Wow! Impressive work, nice job!
that is amazing! well done!
Congrats on the DD, looks amazing! All of that gold reminds me of a Gustav Klimt piece. Well done!
omg how beautiful~
This is wonderful!!! Congratulations!
I love it and the DD is well deserved!!
congratulations on the well deserved Daily Deviation
interesting result
beauty :3
like gin and peanut butter, made from actual peanuts
- Congrats on the DD!
Have a nice day!
Congrats on the DD
Heaven on earth, this is nearly unbelievable crafting! 20 layers? How many time do you take to plan a piece like this? It must take ages. What is the base material of the cuttings? The gold is leaf gold or so, I guess?
fantastic congratz on DD!
love it
love this! awesome work
Real gold? That is cool! Strikes me as an ancient mat for making art, I guess because of Egyptian or Roman art from way back. I love the way you made the water!
Excellent use of depth. It gives the appearance of being even more dynamic than it actually is.

Subtle Russian Light Show Depicts President Obama With a Banana in His Mouth
Happy birthday!
A group of Russian students celebrated President Obama's 53rd birthday earlier this week by projecting a racist, gay-baiting light show onto the front of the U.S. embassy in Moscow. Thanks? The laser display started innocently enough, flashing the words "happy birthday" across the building. But then things get ugly fast, as President Obama is depicted in a tiny hat fellating an unpeeled banana.
Claiming responsibility was the Moscow Student Initiative, an "art group" composed of "activists, students, [and] patriots." Earlier in the day, as something of a slightly racist appetizer to this even more racist main course, the group unfurled a banner across the street from the embassy with the words "I don't see … I don't hear … I don't speak the truth to anybody," and primatelike caricatures of the president. In case that was too understated, Keith Rothrock, who tweeted the image below, points out that the poster is comparing Obama to a monkey.
Across from the US embassy in Moscow today, Russians hung this racist banner addressing Obama on his 53rd birthday. pic.twitter.com/wqhX9ILE8W— Kevin Rothrock (@KevinRothrock) August 4, 2014
The Moscow Times says the banner was a protest against "what the students who created it saw as the U.S. government's hypocritical handling of the situation in Ukraine." Their method of using racist imagery? Well, that's just kind of a thing Russians like to do with Obama. The former Russian figure skater who lit the Olympic torch earlier this year tweeted this racist image of the president and first lady. Certain Russians love race-related jokes about the president. And this sign of Obama and a banana has popped up around East Russia recently. Like the light show, it implies that the banana is a phallus, telling Obama not to "choke on" it. That's the kind of gay-baiting that would surely make Vladimir Putin proud.

23 Reasons That Turkey Is The World's Melting Pot
Everyone wanted to get their little bit of Turkey. It shows.
You may have heard someone at some point mention how cool Istanbul is, or how great the beaches are in Turkey.
And while that's totally true, Turkey is so much more than just that. It's a real melting pot for all surrounding cultures. For example…
1. Greeks, Turks, and Arabs all claim the gooey deliciousness of baklava as their own invention.
But really, who wouldn't want to claim this godly food?
2. Greeks and Turks will also fight over who invented yogurt…
3. And Turkish coffee…
Coffee was originally an Ethiopian drink. The Turks changed the serving method, and then popularized it through South Eastern Europe and the Middle East.
4. And doner? Obviously Turkish.
No matter how much Greeks may call it gyro doesn't change what it is.
5. And of course you can find kebabs everywhere.
Kebabs are the food of choice in much of Turkey, but was originally an Arab food.
And beyond just food, there's all the history, like…
6. Abraham was born in Turkey. Obviously he knew what was up, and there's a huge mosque complex dedicated to him
7. Early Christians knew what was up too, and built their first cathedral in Turkey.
Fun fact! This church was set up and used by the first disciples.
8. Even the Virgin Mary thought Turkey was pretty fine, and she spent her last days there near the shore.
Every year, thousands of elderly European tourists imitate Mary and flock to Turkey's shores.
9. There's also the Greco-Persian smorgasburg that is the tomb at Mount Nemrut.
10. Actually, Turkey has got tombs covered, like these Pontic ones in Amasya.
Fun fact! Amasya was also the legendary home of the Amazons - those terrifying warrior women.
11. The Byzantines absolutely adored Turkey and built wicked monasteries throughout it.
12. Speaking of monasteries, there is also the Syrian Orthodox Deyrulzafaran Monastery outside Mardin.
13. In fact, Mardin itself is just pretty incredible looking thanks to Arab and Kurdish influence.
14. Of course, the Greeks and Romans also influenced places like Ephesus.
Fun fact! Ephesus was also the location of The Temple of Artemis, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.
15. And the Hittites also dug Turkey… Literally. They built underground cities at Cappadocia.
Fun fact! During times of Roman persecution, early Christians used to hide in these underground cities.
16. The former city of Harran is a treasure cove of lost civilizations - from Babylonian to Crusader.
17. The Armenians were also all about eastern Turkey. They even had their former capital, Ani, there.
18. Kars must be the coolest damn city in the world, since the Turks, Russians, Georgians and Armenians all fought for it.
19. Rumi, an Afghan Sufi mystic, lived, worked, and died in Turkey.
Fun fact! Pilgrims of all faiths from around the world continue to visit his tomb in Konya, as his message was one of love and inclusion to all.
And, of course, there's always Istanbul.
20. The Hagia Sofia always looked good, regardless if it were a Byzantine church, Ottoman mosque, or Turkish museum.
21. Even after Rome fell, the Italians still didn't have enough of Turkey, as the Genoese built the Galata Tower.
22. And the Grand Bazaar takes shopping to another level.
23. And to honor their whole past, Ataturks mausoleum in Ankara features elements of all of Turkey's past inhabitants.
Of course, you could have always just looked at a map to get the gist of all this. Turkey even kind of looks like a bridge.

"A ticket out of poverty is to give women small loans to run their businesses".
On 08- Feb - 2011 president Omer al-Bashir, issued a republican decree accepting the final results of referendum, which supports the separation of the South into an independent state. North and South Sudan are presently engaged in talks to resolve the sensitive issues, which includes sharing of oil revenues, demarcation of boarders, and the contested oil-rich Abyei region.
Sudan will not be the same again, and Hope Ofiriha looks forward for a new Republic of south Sudan.
Thanks to our donors' generosity around the world, our microloan raised $3,547 enabling the project to grant loans to more women in Uganda. These loans enable them start their businesses, and is a ticket out of poverty. Our women's group members are hard working and achieving great progress with just small investment.
Our microloan manager, Beatrice Adul, reports that only key solution to women's empowerment and self-sufficiency is the savings and credit awareness and business training that members receive through our monthly meeting held at Kibuli-Zone Uganda. We have learned from our past mistakes – but now thing are different in our organization. Thanks to our donors, the refugee women living in Kampala from Magwi County South Sudan now have access to the microloans to start their income generation business from selling; tea on street corner, dry fish, yellow banana, charcoal, and local breweries. They have also learned how to save and to keep accurate records to ensure their personal financial and business success and that of their fellow Members.
In 2010 with your support, our Group made tremendous strides in their ability to save funds and helped motivate weaker members in the Group.The total interest savings fund in Uganda is shilling 1, 500, 000, - which was contributed by each member on loans borrowed. The interest generated are added to Group's capital so more women can borrow to start similar initiatives.
These loans have a re- cycling affect which means when a member borrows say $100. She is given three months to repay the loan in three installments each month $34, -only. A members who pays in time will be entitled to borrow $150, $200 and so up to $250,-. Also interest is charge on the loan. Before the interest was not charge but in the last meeting members agreed the interest is to be charged. This will help to pay for stationeries, and internet service fees needed.
There are more women who want to take loans but there are no funds. Microloans are the only ticket for them to get out of poverty. These women do not qualify for bank loans,and their hopes are on our donors.
In the months a head we will have lots of report on the impact of funds this winter and this will be clearly demonstrated.
We look forward to update you on our work and to demonstrate how your contributions are making changes in the lives of poorest of the poor in Uganda.
Thanks for joining hands with Hope Ofiriha!

It's a shame that this book misses the mark. The story of Jan and Antonnia deserves to be told by someone who can do it justice. The author can't even decide the narrative point of view, she never commits to it as either a novel or a documentary account, switching view points and adding obscure parenthetical references that are odd distractions. The run-on sentences are very hard to follow. Time and location shifts are vague and confusing too. I heard about this book through an interview with the author on Public Radio, but the interview was 10,000 times more entertaining than the book itself.
I wholly endorse the five star reviews already printed here. I find the most memorable aspects of the book are the instances in which Antonina was able to reach the goodness within apparently evil people through her calm communications. Although the descriptions at the beginning seemed lengthy, the book was hard to put down as it drew to the climax of the Polish uprising.
Being Jewish, I have often heard stories about how my ancestors hid during the war. What I find truly commendable is the non-Jews who risked their lives and the lives of the family members in order to harbor these Jews. They are like an extended family in my eyes. This book was extremely well-written and once you pick it up, you do not want to put it down.
What a great read! really enjoyed it. It was very easy for me to connect to the characters
I absolutely love reading anything set in this time period and love that the story is fact based. The book serves as a good reminder of the heroics that took place under extrordinary circumstances. The problem was the writing. The author can describe things beautifully as long as it is pleasent. I thought there were times when the UNpleasent details needed to be fleshed out further. Also, at times the story would FINALLY be moving along nicely and the author would go off on a tanget about some inconsequential detail that added nothing to the story and quite frankly she just got annoying. I would reccomend googling the family from the story to learn about them because the family's actions really were incredible but i would pass on the book. There are plenty of other WONDERFUL war-time stories out there. Cheers!
Amazing history lesson.despite what man meant for evil - goodness continued to flourish. Interesting characters who persevered through a most awful time in history and their story wasn't lost. Thanks to the author for allowing us a glimpse into survival of ordinary folk in extraordinary times.
I think every high school student should read this book,gives a great explanation of what nazisism was all about
I like the ease of reading, interest grabber, a version of the Nazi war against Poland that I had not heard or thought of. The atrocity of this war went way beyond mere human torment in this reading the vast destruction and despair encountered every aspect of life. I highly recommend this reading.
Well worth it but a little more intense read. Def recommend and would LOVE to see it as a movie!
I enjoyed the book overall. I was unaware of the level of hatred pointed directly at Poland during WWII and was unaware of their heroic efforts at resistance. As far as the writing, I felt the author was perhaps conflicted on whether she wanted to write a fiction or a non-fiction piece of work. I would have preferred a fiction book based on the real life of the protaganists. That would have allowed the author more freedom than she took to hypothesize what the characters were actually feeling.
Although I was disappointed in the way the book ended -- or actually seemed to "fade out" -- I loved this book. One of the few books I've read about Warsaw and Poland during WWII that strangely, wasn't really depressing. It was disturbing and parts were heartbreaking, but over-all it was a great testament to human goodness.
The description, the research, the deeply developed characters all woven together made me love this book. It covered an arena of WWII, occupied Poland, more specifically its capital, Warsaw, that I had not read or studied about outside my World History class in college. Once inside the drama, people, and intrigue, I was hooked--I had discovered a new favorite author: Diane Ackerman.
I found this historical novel to be very, very interesting. It was chosen for my book group but I am starting to get nervous that they will not have liked it as much as I did. Being that I am a history teacher I loved the fact that most of this novel was based on research by the author and told like a biography. I think that some people will find this style of book off putting. The book tells the tail of a Zookeeper and his family who live in Warsaw at the start of WWII. The story tells the tail of this family (primarily the zookeeper's wife) during the Nazi occupation of Warsaw. The book tells the tale of what happened to the Jewish population of Warsaw, life in the Warsaw ghetto, and how the zookeeper's family helped as many people as possible. It was a great look into not only what life was like in Warsaw during the Nazi occupation, but what life was like for a family (particularly a housewife) during this era. For me what I liked was the historical aspect of the book. I loved the first hand accounts of what life was like in the city during the war and what it was like for the Jews living in Warsaw during the occupation, reassignment to the ghetto, and eventual liquidation of the ghetto. More importantly the aspect that I loved about this book was it showed how average people did above average things to help the Jewish community during WWII. Everyone has heard of people the Schindler who saved thousands, but you never hear about all those who helped three or four people along the way. This book showed how one family made a difference for several people and risked their lives in the process. Not only is it a great historical piece, it also a great psychological piece in that it looks at the human condition and the desire to help others versus our desire to protect ourselves. For those who love historical books this is a must read. I give the book **** according the the J. Kaye scale.
Such an insightful book that really led us into the mind of someone experiencing WWII firsthand. It's so important to remember what happened 60+ years ago so that it never happens again and to realize the horrible tragedy while also remembering the amazing people that helped the persecuted and helpless regardless of what religion or background. In addition it was so well written and delved into the thoughts and feelings surrounding the tragedy that was WWII while also exploring the individual repurcussions that go along with being so selfless. The characters were relatable and interesting and had depth so that you could envision them as real people dealing with a horrible time in history.
The fascinating story of Antonina, her husband and son, and their zoo in Warsaw in WWII is nearly ruined by the poor writing of this book. The author skips around in time and place, slipping in barely related anecdotes and reaching for unusual phrasing that distracts rather than enlightens (...she saw her son's face shriek"...). We are also held at a deliberate distance from Antonina's life, as we are told she would have done this, would have worn that (or maybe not). Repeated mention is made of Antonina being pregnant in the winter of 1942-3, but then she 'rises from her bed' with no further mention, either of a baby or its loss, as if nothing had ever happened. The story itself, however, is so compelling that I was willing to put up with the lamentable writing through to the end. Any credit for 'provocative', 'thrilling', 'touching', 'absorbing', and 'enlightening' go to Antonina herself: Ms Ackerman does not do her justice.
I read this book through a book club and couldn't even get through the whole thing. It's not a book I would have chosen to read on my own but I was interested when I heard the storyline. However, the style of writing makes it difficult to read (run-ons, jumping back and forth, very little character description, etc). I never really "bonded" with the characters because the author jumps between narrative and documentary style writing. It should have been written as a ficitional story based on real life events to include more dialoge. There was also too much talk of animal killings and very little explanation of what was going on with the Jewish people in the zoo.
I had no idea of the terror that not only the Jews of Warsaw endured but also the people of Poland in general and specifically in Warsaw. This story relates the angst experienced in a home filled with love and people who care about each other and love animals.
Well, I wouldn't say it's anywhere near as powerful as Schindler's List but it was okay. They supposedly saved hundreds of people but you never really know that because they spend more time discussing the animals ie: Balbina the cat, the badger, the zoo animals that were destroyed by soldiers. It was a good story in that it hasn't been told but it needed more development in my opinion. I didn't feel like I knew characters and definately not any hideaways, most of which just passed through the zoo to go elsewhere.
A moving story of Polish Christians sheltering hundreds of Jews at the Warsaw Zoo during Nazi rule. I found the author's detailed descriptions of minor points distracting and her flowery prose sometimes irritating. I recommend the audio CD version over print copies although it would have been better without the reader's attempts at Polish accents for the main characters' dialogues. The ending of the book was abrupt and leads the reader longing for more information on the Zabinskis after the war. Despite these weaknesses the basic story is powerful, and the book is still highly recommended.
A marvelous story, poorly told. The story line of the lives of two Christian zookeepers and their child in Warsaw during World War II is compelling, but loses much of its power in a very poor telling. The story line is very disjoint. The writing varies between flowery and newspaper-like. Random and frequent insertions of erudite essays on periferal topics serve only to validate the author as an excellent researcher, but not a good story teller. I tried to push through to see the story to its completion, but the lack of readability made that impossible. Where was the editor? This is a marvelous story that few will want to read. How sad.
This book was incredible. The story is extremely interesting. Our history books rarely contain more than a few lines about the Polish people during the Nazi invasion. From tales about the Warsaw Zoo animals to the personal risks this family experienced, this story paints a painfully realistic, yet at times, magical picture.
A beautiful story, well written, about an ugly time in our world's history. I was moved by the prose, and by the story itself. I would recommend this book to anyone. Unforgettable!
These people that owned the zoo did the right thing even though it was extremely diffucult to do so. Wonderful. I think stories like can be a life lesson. Choose to do the right thing even when its not convenient or your too busy.
What a disappointment. This book certainly sounded intriguing and had all the potential for a great read, but fell far short. Tales of courageous individuals were so poorly written, that it was nothing but a struggle to get through this book. Reading a half page in Wikipedia would have been more interesting. It was a waste of time. The only reason I am giving two stars is because there were some golden glimpses into Antonina's personality that showed what a remarkable spirit she had.... Apologies to the "guests" and other survivors, who deserved to have their stories told much better than this.
I found this book to be fascinating! I am Polish and have a daughter who lived in Poland for a semester in college. You will certainly feel very proud of your heritage after reading this book.

AbstractCoherent Logix, Incorporated (CLX) proposes the Software Defined Radio Waveform Development Kit (SDR-WDK) program to facilitate the development of a SDR development kit based on the Hyper64 processor with an accompanying software development flow to support rapid development and fielding of this technology to the Warfighter. The HyperX Technology is viewed by JPEO JTRS HMS as a risk reduction technology that is slated for insertion into the JTRS HMS SDR program of record upon successful demonstration. It will simultaneously enable order of magnitude improvement in power savings while reducing chipset count, thus size and weight of the radio. The HyperX processor technology is fully programmable and reconfigurable on the fly and is supported by industry standards based [hardware agnostic software development flow and] programming model using ANSI-C and MPI (message passing interface) API. This provides reduced life-cycle costs and future proofing of hardware through fully portable software code. This effort capitalizes on the investments made by DARPA; U.S. Army ARDEC and ARL; AFRL Sensors, Space Vehicles Directorate, and Information Directorate; and JPEO/PM JTRS HMS under the DARPA ECHiPPS Program.

Interactive scripture games, apps for kids
"For me at least, and I think my six children would agree, scripture study works well only if your children know you love the scriptures and they also know as individuals that you love them. Then whatever pattern you have will work. If scripture study is forced for either them or you, if your children feel pushed, or if you don't really love the scriptures yourself, then scripture study doesn't have as much power."
President Eyring explained the important example his wife has set for their children: "I'm blessed with a wife who absolutely loves the scriptures," he said. "If I ask her, 'What would you like to do?' she says, 'Oh, read me the scriptures.' I think our children have sensed that it wasn't a duty for us to read the scriptures — it was a pleasure."

The 2012 C-Class doesn't look much different on the outside, but we can hope the changes made to the inside are more noticeable. Mercedes promises that the 2012 model will feature an entirely new dashboard with higher-end materials and other improved surfaces throughout the cabin. There's also a new steering wheel borrowed from the redesigned CLS-Class and a new multimedia system.
These additions are welcomed, since our last drive in a C-Class detailed just how far behind it was in the segment in terms of a top-notch interior.
That may be the most important improvement to car shoppers when they sit in one at the Detroit auto show next month, but much more has changed. The exterior gets slightly different front and rear treatments, including new headlights and taillights, and elements like an aluminum hood to make the car lighter are standard across the line.A big change for U.S. customers is an available turbocharged four-cylinder C250 model for 2012. It makes 201 horsepower and 229 pounds-feet of torque and gets 24 mpg combined. This should make for an efficient ride while remaining a lively alternative to the C300 4Matic with a V-6 engine putting out 228 horses and 20 mpg combined.

"Former Capitol of Honduras" Comayagua by atufft
Comayagua Travel Guide: 5 reviews and 19 photos
Comayagua is located on the principal highway that ties San Pedro Sula in the northwest to Tegucigalpa and the south coast region. Founded in 1537, establishment of the regional capitol during colonial times verified Spanish control over central Honduras, leaving only the Lenca mountain region around Gracias unsettled militarily. Thus, from 1540 to 1880, Comayagua was the capitol of Honduras both before independence and afterwards until Tegucigalpa emerged as the larger economic and more cosmopolitan city. Comayagua is now a pleasant city of about 60,000, and has a well restored colonial center. There are two plazas of interest that we visited. Unfortunately, our stop during Christmas Day found the city rather asleep. The colonial museum was closed, and most businesses were closed.
The city is actually a mile or so off a newer section of the main highway, so when visiting be sure to watch for signs and take the exit. We had to stop for directions to find our way into the city center, after traveling along the old highway which is lined with fueling stations and convenience stores.
In the colonial area, there are two main plaza areas of interest that can be walked and appreciated within an hour or two. One is around the Parque Central, and the other is around Parque La Merced. See the tips for these for more details and images.

Fire Breaks Out at Louisiana Chemical Plant
An explosion rocked a New Iberia, La., chemical plant Tuesday afternoon, forcing the evacuation of nearby businesses and homes, but it didn't cause deaths or serious injuries, local authorities and company officials said.
The explosion occurred at 3:50 p.m. CDT at a facility owned by Multi-Chem Group LLC in a commercial corridor adjacent to the Acadiana Regional Airport. The area is about 130 miles west of New Orleans.
Capt. Ryan Turner with the Iberia Parish Sheriff's Office said that all of the plant's employees have been accounted for. "We've had no reports of fatalities or serious injuries," he said.
Initially a five-mile-wide area around the facility was cleared of people, but since then the fire has "diminished extensively" and the evacuation zone has been reduced to a one-mile perimeter.
Officials still battling the blaze more than three hours after the explosion have yet to determine its cause, Mr. Turner said.
"We haven't been able to assess the damage to the actual plant or the surrounding businesses," Mr. Turner said. "But I can tell you it was a pretty significant fire."
A hazardous-materials unit from the Louisiana State Police is heading the investigation, he said.
A maker of oil-field chemicals, Multi-Chem is headquartered in San Angelo, Texas. A company spokeswoman said that there were no serious injuries, as all employees "were able to get out in time." The company and local authorities are working together to ascertain the cause of the incident, the spokeswoman said.
