I have an OpenLDAP directory with two different doamins (DN's) What I would like to do is allow the users to access the machines with ssh and their LDAP account. This worked fine when I only had one Directory in LDAP, but I am not able to get it working with two directories.
I've searched and tried for an solution, without any luck. Is anyone able to help me with this? I've tried to add a second base to /etc/libnss-ldap.conf but it does only allows for me lookup entries in the latter LDAP directory.

Released: May 01st, 2006
Running Time:
Director: Leon Maximus
Company: Blue Pictures
Cast: Mayara Lemos, Paulette Bauer, Micela Garcia, Patricia Rodriguez, Layla (I), Grazielle, Monica Mattor, Dora, Renata Davila
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: Specialty
With cock in hand and tits popping from their chest, five transvestites lay the pipe to five women. Each of the trannies get blown, pussy fuck, then cap the action by plowing their lady's ass. Being a true sport, Dora strikes a doggie-style pose and takes three fingers in the ass as Mayara Lemos pulls her butt cheeks apart, revealing gapping man ass. Mayara later drives Dora in the can with a strap-on.
Well, for a bunch of guys who are adventurous enough to have titties surgically implanted, they sure don't share that some sense of adventure in the sack. The sex here is nothing more than typical guy/girl sex seen everywhere else. With this in mind, Dora snags the spotlight with his anal gap shots and finger/strap-on sex. Not that it's award winning, but at least it goes beyond what the other stars perform. Dialog is all Spanish.
Retailing: Point out to those who like watching transsexuals anal blast women.

AbstractAs the Army's current fielded ground combat and combat support systems continue to age, there are increasing performance and reliability issues being encountered by our troops. Vehicles and equipment once designed using the best practices available at the time, can now be better engineered through state-of-the-art computational processing through coupling of engineering, business and maintenance systems. The proposed solution is the development of Enterprise Computational Reliability Software (ERCS) as a revolutionary new business process within the Army and its industrial base that will enable improved readiness forecasting, accelerated product development, and enable a new acquisition mindset for considering reliability forecasts as well as cost bids in vendor selection. Within the conventional engineering environment, the product designer selects the individual components that make up the product system. ERCS accesses component variability information from connected databases and performs many virtual representations of product functioning even considering sales schedules, maintenance strategies and varying usage scenarios. The results are viewed at the design level so that engineering and cost trade studies can be performed before final design while prime contractor and Army leadership monitor design progress to ensure that all objectives are met.

It's no surprise that sales of sweet potatoes, pumpkins and other orange squash hit their peak during the fall and winter holidays. But retailers might want to keep promotions in mind for rest of the year. Not only are the fruits and tubers themselves becoming popular, they're being added as ingredients in prepared foods, such as frozen fries for kids and snack chips.

Gators, ASU highlight packed weekend
Florida hits the road for the second consecutive weekend in conference play with three games at Mississippi, but the Gators used the middle of the week to good effect with a doubleheader sweep of Georgia at home Wednesday,15-0 and 4-0. The Bulldogs managed just two hits and one walk in 12 innings against Stacey Nelson and Stephanie Brombacher.
Those two wins made it three consecutive shutouts for the Gators, a streak worth noting after they had allowed at least one run in each of their previous six games. Considering they won all six of those games and outscored opponents 39-10 in doing so, a stray run or two isn't likely to cause many sleepless nights in Gainesville. But when you're talking about a national championship favorite, nits get picked, and the team's longest stretch without a shutout last season was seven games (at just about the same point in the season). The flip side is a shutout in the opener against Ole Miss would mean a fourth consecutive clean slate, something that the Gators never did last season.
• Elsewhere, LSU visits Georgia. A win against Washington on a neutral field last weekend hinted at the Bulldogs' upside, but balance that against the losses at Florida. Georgia went 1-11 against Alabama, Florida, LSU and Tennessee last season and scored only 19 runs in those 11 losses. With this season's series against Alabama coming in Tuscaloosa and the Tennessee series coming late in April, this three-game weekend set is an important chance to show the Bulldogs can hold serve at home against a team that conventional wisdom suggests they've passed in the conference pecking order.
We're still a couple of weeks away from conference play getting underway in the Pac-10, not that it's too early to start anticipating trips to the Bay Area for UCLA and Washington in what should be a heck of a first weekend. But with Arizona, Arizona State and Washington all in action at the Judi Garman Classic, which kicked off Thursday, it's still a busy weekend -- even with Stanford and UCLA off.
Arizona State probably has the toughest weekend of the three at the Garman, playing DePaul and Michigan, while Arizona and Washington face the Wolverines but don't get a look at the Blue Demons. It's also just the second trip away from Tempe for the defending champions (they beat Fullerton 6-3 on the road Thursday).
I was a little skeptical of talk out of Tempe that the Sun Devils might be better on offense this season than they were en route to the championship, but early evidence suggests it's a fair debate. Seven Sun Devils already have at least three home runs, including freshman Katelyn Boyd, who might be a better hitter than anyone the team lost after last season, as bold as that may sound.
But while Arizona State played a tough five-game set at the Cathedral City Classic, the rest of the schedule hasn't included a lot of postseason-caliber pitching (although they did get six hits and five runs off Iowa's Brittany Weil). So with the potential of facing either Jordan Taylor or Nikki Nemitz for Michigan, Becca Heteniak for DePaul, Molly Hill for Nebraska and even Brittney Bargar for Notre Dame, this weekend is a good opportunity for Arizona State's offense to show exactly how much potential is there.
Big 12
Speaking of Nebraska, Hill picked up a shutout win against Louisiana-Lafayette on Thursday night at the Garman, but news that Robin Mackin won't pitch this season is a tough blow for the Huskers as they look to the start of conference play next weekend.
Oklahoma joins Nebraska out in Fullerton, Calif., at the Garman. And the Sooners' loss to Notre Dame on Thursday ensured that the Huskers' win against Louisiana-Lafayette wouldn't be the opening day's biggest upset. Coming on the heels of last weekend's disappointing 1-3 record against Northwestern and Tennessee in games played in Norman, Okla., and Oklahoma City, the loss against the Fighting Irish sets up intriguing games against DePaul and Louisiana-Lafayette for the Sooners.
But as many good games as those two teams will play this weekend in Fullerton, I'm equally interested to see how Missouri fares against in a pair of games against North Carolina in Myrtle Beach, S.C. Both teams have good one-two punches in the circle -- Missouri with freshman Chelsea Thomas and senior Stacy Delaney, and North Carolina with Danielle Spaulding and Lisa Norris -- so both games should offer meaningful results.

The boxing career of Danny "Kid" Ahrens hangs in the balance after just five professional fights because of a hand injury.
The unbeaten London-based Israeli light-middleweight sustained the injury in his fourth pro contest and the problem recurred in his most recent fight. He was seeing a specialist in Israel this week in the latest attempt to find a cure.
We do love a simchah. And many also quite enjoy a flutter. So if in Vegas for the latter, why not take in a wedding? Or to be precise, Tony N' Tina's Wedding. OK, so the nuptials are fictitious, being the focal point of the long-running show, which is currently playing in Vegas's Bally's hotel.
London-domiciled Glaswegian Michael Mail wanted to do something to "recognise and celebrate the Scottish Jewish story". Then he came across the work of award-winning photographer Judah Passow and knew he had found the answer.
Youth Aliyah Child Rescue gave a generous nod to its past and an emotive look at its present as it celebrated its 80th anniversary with a gala dinner at London's Guildhall on Tuesday.
The past was represented by guest speakers Yisrael Meir Lau, Israel's former Ashkenazi Chief Rabbi, and Knesset Member Shimon Solomon.
As Jewish Blind and Disabled chief executive Hazel Kaye stands in the entrance of the charity's nearly completed £10.6 million development in Bushey, she is passed by a relative of a soon-to-be tenant.
Clearly impressed by what he sees, the relative remarks: "This is more like a hotel than a home." It is the sort of compliment Ms Kaye is getting used to.
Nothing beats a practical demonstration of a charity's work. And, with a little help from Sir Tom Jones, drummer Saul Zur-Szpiro supplied it to the 1,100 guests at Norwood's annual dinner on Monday, which raised £3.2 million for its work with children, families and those with learning difficulties.
London-based Israeli Danny "Kid" Ahrens continued his winning start to his professional career with a four round points victory over Briton Lewis van Poetsch at a Jewish Care boxing dinner.
A film about a London-based 109-year-old Holocaust survivor has reached the final eight in the Oscar selection process for the documentary short category.
The Lady in Number Six: Music Saved My Life tells the story of Prague-born musician and teacher Alice Herz-Sommer, who was sent to Theresienstadt.
Arsene Wenger and David Dein were the Arsenal stars, David Pleat came from Spurs, former FA chairman David Bernstein flew the flag for Manchester City, David Gold represented West Ham and ex-Liverpool boss Gerard Houllier gave a Merseyside flavour to the hottest footballing ticket in town - the launch of Four Four Jew at the Jewish Museum in Camden.
Joanne Rosenthal fits the cynical profile of the Manchester United fan. She lives in London — although she was raised in Salford — and rarely attends games. But she is a pivotal player in the upcoming Jewish Museum, Camden, exhibition showcasing the Jewish contribution to football, on and off the pitch, and the influence the beautiful game has exerted on Jewish life in this country.
From a documentary on the quintessential party song to an "extreme horror" flick from Israel, the 17th UK Jewish Film Festival covers all the cinematic bases.
Unveiling the programme for 2013, festival executive director Judy Ironside said the line-up of screenings represented "a significantly good year".
Over 100 supporters of Israeli art gathered in the sumptuous surrounds of London's Mansion House last Friday lunchtime for the official launch of the UK publication of a pictorial history.
A short closing set by British pop sensation Emeli Sandé sent the 1,200 guests at Jewish Care's campaign dinner home with a song in their hearts. But the greatest hit for the welfare charity's chiefs was the subsequent announcement of record £4.2 million proceeds from the event, held at Grosvenor House in London's Park Lane.
There is even greater incentive for creative talents to enter this year's Art House contest run by the London Jewish Cultural Centre in Golders Green.
For not only will the best entries be part of a seven-week exhibit at LJCC — the three pieces selected as the pick of the crop will earn the artists prizes of £2,000, £1,000 and £500.
Few would dare to send back a Heston Blumenthal culinary creation. But a Maidenhead Synagogue group did just that after the three-starred Michelin chef mixed milk and meat in a recipe for a fundraising cookbook.
Reminiscence work is an integral part of the programme at Jewish Care's Sam Beckman day centre in Hendon for people with dementia. Now through the latest technology, centre members Miriam Gould and Dorit Nass can draw upon a lifetime of memories wherever they are.
A year-long initiative to increase British Jews' engagement with Israel is being launched to coincide with Yom Ha'atzmaut.
The Hammerson House care home in East Finchley has unveiled plans for a £16.5 million expansion and redevelopment project.
Hammerson — which last year merged with the Nightingale home in Clapham — will complete the scheme in two parts. A refurbishment of the property in The Bishops Avenue starts in May and is expected to take a year. The main building work will be from 2016-18.
Light-middleweight Danny "Kid" Ahrens described his victory over Andrew Patterson in Peterborough as "my best performance to date".
Although his journeyman opponent was furious when the referee stopped the four-rounder midway through the second, he had taken a battering from the first bell.
The two major providers of Jewish residential nursing care in the capital have attacked the imposition of a reduced upper limit for NHS London-funded clients.

Over-the-Counter Heartburn Drugs Don't Need U.S. Warnings
Over-the-counter heartburn drugs such as Procter & Gamble Co.'s Prilosec and Novartis AG's Prevacid don't increase the risk of broken bones, U.S. regulators said, reversing a decision announced a year ago.
Short-term use of low-dose proton pump inhibitors sold without a prescription "is unlikely" to lead to hip, wrist and spine fractures, the Food and Drug Administration said today. The agency said in May that over-the-counter and prescription heartburn drugs would need new warnings about broken bones.
Patients at highest risk for fractures took high doses of prescription heartburn and acid-reflux treatments or used the drugs for at least a year, the FDA said today. Over-the-counter versions are intended for 14-day use up to three times a year and the risks may increase if these medicines are taken more often.
"FDA acknowledges that consumers, either on their own, or based on a healthcare professional's recommendation, may take these products for periods of time that exceed the directions on the OTC label," the agency said in its notice.
Novartis, of Basel, Switzerland, sells Prevacid over the counter under a license from Takeda Pharmaceutical Co., of Osaka, Japan. Prilosec, sold by Cincinnati-based P&G, contains a chemical similar to the key ingredient in Nexium, the leading prescription heartburn drug sold by London-based AstraZeneca Plc.

Patient Comments: MRSA - Describe Your Experience
Please describe your experience with MRSA.
Comment from: ,o,skid, 75 or over Female (Caregiver) Published: June 10
My mom was diagnosed with MRSA when she was hospitalized for a radical double mastectomy. The diagnosed it by taking swabs of her nasal passages. After being put on the antibiotic, which she used religiously, she got a staph infection in the incisions from the surgery. She is a dialysis patient - has been for a little over 3 years. About 8 months ago, they had difficulty getting the fistula for the dialysis to work and they sent her to the hospital. She was admitted for a procedure to unclog the fistula, place a stent and place a couple of balloons up there as well. She was put into an isolation room with no telephone or bathroom. She was told it was because of her history of MRSA. Why not do the rapid test and see if she is carrying it? It was very demeaning for her to have to call and have a porta-potty brought in - to say nothing about the lack of privacy. And when she wanted to use a phone, we had to go out and find one from a nurse. Is it always going to be this way when she is admitted to a hospital now? She hates the isolation rooms because they are primitive!
Comment from: Jane, 75 or over Female (Caregiver) Published: April 08
After my uncle had a heart attack and open heart surgery, he picked up the MRSA virus in ICU. It spread to the wounds in his chest and he had to spend four months in hospital. The virus destroyed his chest and ribs. The result is that no ribs can be replaced by screws because of the weak remaining rib structure. He lost 35 kg of weight, and has to learn to walk again. We don't know what the future holds for my uncle.
Comment from: Dee, 45-54 Female (Caregiver) Published: April 05
I just lost a dear friend to MRSA. She suffered for years. She possibly developed this from caring for her mother, who was on oxygen. My friend changed her mother's nasal set up frequently. She was treated for a persistent cold, then flu, and finally, MRSA. It was already in her blood stream. She had surgery on her spine, where it settled. She suffered for years. Her liver was destroyed from the antibiotics. She would swell up and have to go through constant tapping. She died at age 54 – loved life, and fought hard, until the end. She wanted to beat this so much!

I am 21 years old and one night my thigh right above my leg started to hurt and just kept hurting more and more and swelling more as the night went on. After a day I could hardly walk on my leg because it hurt way too bad. I had a scab on it and picked it off which caused my leg to puss out for 48 hours until I finally had my surgery. Any pressure on the leg would make it puss out a lot more. By the second day there was a white stringy puss coming out along with the thick bloody puss. They cut my leg open and cleaned it out and I was on vancomycin 3 times a day for the week I was in the hospital and even though I have been released I have to go to the hospital every 12 hours for another treatment of vancomycin. This is going to last for at least 2 weeks after I am out of the hospital and then after the 2 weeks they will see how my blood samples look and I may still have to go in for treatments longer. I normally do not like to go to doctors but I am very happy that I went to the ER for this one in a reasonable amount of time of 2 days.

I have been diagnosed with MRSA. I have had many Surgeries and Hospital stays due to it. My advice to everyone is if you think you may have signs of the infection, please seek medical attention immediately. I thought mine was just a simple spider bite, but I was wrong, my dad was the one who told me about the infection, when he looked at the red swelling of the area, he stated that it looks like the MRSA. I got up to go to work the next morning, and I couldn't even walk because the area infected was right at the bottom of my knee cap, and as soon as I went into the emergency room they took one look at it and they knew what it was. I have had many medications, and hospitalizations from it. Keep Lysol or Clorox wipes handy, and antibacterial sanitizer handy so it would spread to others, I just hope that all of you are healthy and never catch this, because it is really devastating and painful to have and I just don't want anybody to go through what I have been through over the past 9 months!

I have been dealing with these abscesses in my armpit for going on about 6 years now they are very painful. They are like little cyst that appear from nowhere I had many the size of golf balls and 2 the size of a baseball. I have had 12 removed from under my arms and many others that drained by themselves. Well back in the beginning of May this year I had another one. I went and had it lanced then the end of May I got 2 more, same thing I went and had them lanced it was then that they told me I had MRSA . I don't know how long I've had it. I'm taking all the precautions I can to make sure my two boys don't get it. I have read a lot about it on the net and to be honest I'm scared to death. I worry about it so much I make myself sick to where I can't eat for 3 or 4 days because I have my stomach messed up. So it's a daily stress for me.

Revision as of 15:20, 8 January 2013
Starting the Isolation & Study of Culturable Bacteria from your habitat
There are large numbers of both beneficial and non-beneficial bacteria in animal guts. Often their roles are not well understood. Since we are limiting our focus to bacteria, we will choose media that encourage growth of bacteria and/or discourage growth of fungi and other eukaryotic microorganisms. A wide variety of growth media and incubation conditions can be used to isolate bacteria from soil. In general, we can favor the growth of certain groups over others by altering the composition (e.g. pH, osmolarity) and/or nutrients available. Some bacteria will grow so fast on rich media (nutrient agar, TSA, etc.) that they will mask other slower growing genera. We will try not only enriched nutrient and dilute nutrient agar but also a variety of defined media that will favor slower growing genera.
The vast majority of bacteria (90-99%) will not grow on your plates at all. We will only find the 'culturable' bacteria that like the growth conditions you choose. The more types of media and growth conditions you use, the greater the variety and number of bacteria that you will find. Although most habitats contain a rich and unbelievably diverse community of microorganisms, we will focus part of our investigation on a few of the culturable bacteria that contribute to this unseen world. To get a sense of the true diversity of the bacterial community in your habitat, later on in the semester, we will isolate genomic DNA and ID bacteria by 16S rRNA gene sequencing.
Activity 1: Plate Count of Bacteria: Assessing Culturable Bacteria from Your Habitat
To perform a standard plate count of your sample bacteria you must first serially dilute the sample so that the colony numbers will be manageable and so that you are more likely to have a countable number of cells.
Standard Plate Count of Soil Microorganisms
The Soil Extract you prepared is now at a 1:100 dilution (1 gram/100 ml). This could also be called a 1% (w/v)solution.
Gather or find the following materials:
5 sterile 13 x 100 size culture tubes with caps
1 sterile disposable plastic individually wrapped 1ml pipet,
5 sterile dilute nutrient agar plates,
5 sterile plastic disposable spreaders
Setting Up a Standard Plate Count:
1. Label 5 tubes 10-3, 10-4 etc. through 10-7.
2. Label 5 destination plates of appropriate solid medium with dilution and identifying information. Because your goal is to obtain 30-300 well isolated colonies on a plate, generally only the 10-4 through 10-7 dilutions are plated. However, we are going to plate all of our dilutions. The 10 -3 dilution may be a potential source of aerobic spore forming bacteria (see the protocol for Aerobic spore forming bacteria enrichment on the Enrichment Media for Soil Bacterial from Mixed Populations protocol page of this wiki).
3. Slightly dehydrate the medium on each plate by cleaning the laminar flow hood, turning on the fan, placing the plates in the hood, and positioning the covers so they are ajar for 10 minutes or until the medium surface shows no visible moisture.
4. Pipet 0.9 ml of sterile water into the 5 tubes labeled in step 1. (You may use the same sterile 1ml pipet for all of them.)
5. Using your P200 micropipet, transfer 100μL of the 1:100 dilution to the tube labeled 10-3, mix well by vortexing.
6. Using a new tip, transfer 100 μL ml of the 10-3 dilution to the tube labeled 10-4. Mix well. Mixing 0.1ml of the 10-3 dilution with 0.9ml of sterile water makes a 10-4 dilution.
7. Continue to transfer 100μL aliquots (after mixing well) from each dilution to the next tube of water until you have carried the dilution to 10-7.
8. Use your P200 micropipet and a new tip to transfer 100μL of the 10-3 dilution and dispense it to the center of the dilute nutrient agar plate labeled 10-3. Use a sterile plastic disposable spreader to gently push the dispensed sample two or three times clockwise around the dish, and then several times counterclockwise. Make sure all of the surface area of the plate has been inoculated. Don't press too hard as force will cause the microorganisms to collect at the edge of the spreader, resulting in uneven distribution.
9. Repeat step 8 to inoculate the rest of your prelabeled dilute nutrient agar plates with the 10-4 through 10-7 dilutions of bacteria.
10. Allow the moisture to be absorbed into the agar before inverting the plates and putting a labeled piece of your team color tape around the set. Incubating the set of standard plate count plates at RT until next week in a rack designated by your instructor.
Next week you will count the number of colonies on these plates, observe the variability in colonies on each plate and, possibly, select one or more of these colonies for isolation and further study.
Calculating the number of bacteria per gram of soil
If you divide the number of colonies you find by the amount of diluent used times the dilution factor, you will obtain the number of cultivatable bacteria per gram of soil. Only plates that with between 30 and 300 colonies per plate give accurate calculations.
CFU = number counted on plate/(diluent plated*dilution of plate counted)
Activity C-2: Streaking for Isolation on enrichment media and dilute nutrient agar
How did your first attempt at streaking for isolation turn out? Have you checked your plate that you streaked in LAB 1. If you didn't get single well isolated colonies of two different bacteria on that plate, ask your instructor to watch you prepare your first streak plate today so she can offer suggestions for improving your technique.
C2a: Each student should use the 1/100 dilution of Soil Extract (the supernatant in the conical tubes) from each soil sample collected. Streak one plate of Dilute Nutrient Agar(dNA) and one plate of full strength Nutrient agar. Both Nutrient and Dilute nutrient agar will supply general nutritional needs of most bacteria and discourage fungal growth (because of the neutral pH). We are using both media to see if, in the dilute form, the growth of fungal organisms will be reduced without negatively impacting variety of bacteria. Using liquid SOIL EXTRACT as your inoculum is analogous to using a broth culture source. You will follow the steps in Streaking for Isolation in the protocol section of this wiki.
The formulation of enrichment media supplies specific nutrients that encourage the growth of bacteria types that grow too slowly or not at all in media missing these nutrients. Selective media is selective because it contains one or more ingredient(s) that inhibits the growth of competitor microbes (such as cycloheximine, a drug that prevents fungal growth but does not affect bacteria negatively). Media can be both selective and enrichment. In some cases growth on enrichment or selection media will take up to 2 weeks. Thus, you will have to keep track of the progress of your isolation of different bacterial species as not all of your organisms will be ready for the same steps at the same time.
C2b: There are 11 groups of bacteria described in the Isolation and Enrichment Media for Soil Bacterial from Mixed Populations in the protocol section of this wiki. Your goal today is to consult with your partner and the other members of your team and divide up the available media so that each soil extract from your habitat gets plated onto as many different enrichment media as possible. We want to find culturable bacteria from all 11 of the enrichment groups, if possible.
We hope that, eventually, in the weeks to come, each student will be working with a unique subset of the 11 possible bacterial groups. Make sure, when you divide up the work, that all bacterial groups are covered by at least one of the soil samples from your habitat. (You can set up both samples for each enrichment if you and partners feel really ambitious, but, at minimum, both soil extracts from each habitat should be enriched for Actinomyces and all enrichment groups should be covered by one sample from each habitat.) Notice that the enrichment protocols are divided with subheadings based on whether you use soil directly or soil extract as the inoculum. Distribute the options so each group member tries a variety of methods.
You are beginning an investigative project that is, increasingly, uniquely your groups'. Although the culture-independent molecular techniques will be done by all of you at the same time, a lot of the work that you will do each week on characterizing your culturable bacteria depends on the unique properties and metabolic capabilities of the bacteria you choose to isolate. The goal is for your group to culture and characterize a diverse population of bacteria from a defined habitat. You will present your findings in a poster presentation to the class at the end of the semester. This presentation will be more interesting if you and your group members work together to cover as wide as possible a selection and enrichment strategy now and in the next few weeks.
Come to the lab and check on your cultures often over the next few days. Make observations about the number, size, color and shape of the various colonies that appear and draw the growth you observe in your lab notebook. There is a data table in the form of an Excel spread sheet that you can download from the Data folder in your First Class Lab conference that will help you keep track of the characteristics of each of your isolates and allow you to share your data with your team.
This project is an investigative one that will require outside of lab time. Because bacteria have widely varying generation times, they will form colonies at different rates. It is your responsibility to check your cultures often and subculture or move them to your lab section's designated rack in the walk-in cold room to alt growth before the isolated colonies we seek become a mess of overgrown lawn growth on your plates and the isolation must be started all over.

The Comeback Kid
Standing beside his white Monte Carlo in the parking lot of the Northern Lights Casino and Hotel, Archie LaRose doesn't look much like a politician. Tall and barrel-chested, he sports a shock of short, spiky black hair with a fluffy rattail. His smooth-skinned face makes him look younger than his 33 years. But in his tumultuous and often controversial two-year stint as the secretary-treasurer of the Leech Lake Band of Ojibwe--the second most powerful elected office on the reservation, and the one he is again seeking now--LaRose learned a few things about the political game.
So before heading out for another evening on the campaign trail, LaRose decides to take care of some last-minute hygiene and carefully clips his fingernails. As he does this, he casts his eyes across the half-full parking lot at the recently expanded casino. If circumstances were different, he might take this opportunity to pop inside. Maybe he would thank some of the voters who supported him in his recent primary victory. Maybe he would try to win over some new voters for the upcoming general election.
But circumstances don't permit that. Six months ago, LaRose received a formal notice barring him from the premises of Northern Lights and the other two other casinos owned by the Leech Lake band. The letter, signed by the band's gaming director and security chief, said there was reason to believe that LaRose had committed an act "that threatened the reputation and/or safety of persons of Leech Lake Gaming."
"It was just another insult," LaRose says with a shrug. "They didn't even bother to say what I did." The ban is the least of his troubles. After a long and acrimonious power struggle, his colleagues on the Leech Lake Tribal Council voted him out of a job this July. He appealed to the Leech Lake Tribal Court. The court ruled in his favor and returned the matter to the tribal council. It didn't make any difference. After a second hearing, the vote was the same. LaRose was out of a job. Now he is hip-deep in a bid to recapture his old office and, like any seasoned pol, he exudes optimism about his prospects.
"I'm a warrior and I'm going to come back, my friend," he says. "I've got a strong heart, and a lot of guts and courage. I'm not going to stay down." As he heads east on Highway 200, past the northern Minnesota resort town of Walker, LaRose cranks up the Rod Stewart disco classic "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?" and lays out his itinerary for the evening: three hours of door-knocking in two of the reservation's most remote backwoods settlements, Smokey Point and Kego Lake. There aren't a lot of votes here--maybe two dozen households in all--but the locals supported LaRose in the primary. He wants to let them know he doesn't take their votes for granted.
"Two years ago, a lot of elders told me they never had a candidate come to their houses before," LaRose says. "I believe that's what won me the election." On the reservation, some candidates avoid door-to-door campaigning altogether, instead relying on family and clan affiliations to get out the vote. But LaRose has made face-to-face interaction the main tenet of his political gospel. And since he's been out of work, he's been able to spend a lot of time on the campaign trail. Sometimes he is out for eight hours a day, sometimes twelve or thirteen. Even his staunchest critics grudgingly concede admiration for his commitment to campaigning. "That boy gets out and he hustles and he knocks on every door," says tribal attorney Mike Garbow.
The effort has yielded results. Last month, after a successful battle to get his name listed on the primary ballot, LaRose finished first in a field of 14 candidates. The runner-up, a distant cousin of LaRose's named Donnie Headbird, trailed him by 20 points.
Door-knocking on the reservation is not without its hazards. In his last campaign for secretary-treasurer, LaRose was bitten by dogs on three occasions. So as he steers the Monte Carlo into the driveway of a supporter at Kego Lake and spots a big mixed-breed dog, he's wary. "Oh, man, stiff tail. Not a good sign," he says. He honks the horn, waits for a resident to come corral the dog, and then warily sidles up to the front door.
Inside, he is greeted by an old friend from Cass Lake, Rodney Johnson. After a few pleasantries, the conversation turns to LaRose's reelection bid. Johnson ventures that there might be an effort to buy votes. The practice has gone on for years on the reservation, Johnson claims: Sometimes people are given money for their votes, sometimes pills or liquor. But LaRose tells Johnson he is not worried about this. "I always tell people, 'Go ahead and take their money and vote how you want. They can't follow you into the booth,'" he says.
At that, he launches into his talking points. He vows to push for "the programs"--like free snow plowing and grass cutting for elders--and to fight "misspending." He points with pride to his role in eliminating an extra layer of management in the tribal government and his efforts to have the band's financial affairs scrutinized by outside auditors.
Politics at Leech Lake have long been rife with accusations of graft and corruption, and LaRose has been on both the receiving and giving ends. In his removal hearing, his opponents alleged that he funneled emergency assistance funds to friends and relatives. Mike Garbow, the tribal attorney and a LaRose foe, says that authorities are only now learning the extent of the abuse of the program. Between October 2002 and June 2004, according to Garbow, the band paid out approximately $3.7 million dollars in emergency assistance. Four members of one family, Garbow says, received $16,000 for car repairs over a four-month period. "The standing orders seem to have been, 'Go ahead and dole it,'" Garbow alleges. "There seems to be very little documentation that Archie authorized it. But it stinks and it makes you sick."
LaRose has become accustomed to deflecting such charges. "At the removal hearing, they said I gave away too much. I helped the people by giving away hotel rooms for wakes and funerals. I lent cars from the motor pool so people could go to the doctor. What's wrong with that? It's the people's dollar. That's why I wasn't stingy with it," he says. "I told the council, 'If you want to take me out for helping the people, so be it. I'll be back.' I still stand good in the people's eyes."
If nothing else, LaRose knows plenty about what it's like to be poor. Born at the Cass Lake Indian Hospital in 1971, he spent much of his early childhood at a reservation housing development called Tract 33. With its burned-out trailers, boarded-up houses, and litter-strewn streets, Tract 33 is notorious as one of the most troubled spots on the reservation. Yet LaRose speaks fondly of his childhood days at "Track" and, while he no longer lives there, he still calls it home. "Some people look down on Tract 33, because the majority live in poverty. But it's not as bad as they say. I don't have any fear being at Track, any time of the day or night."
At the age of seven, LaRose found his way to the reservation boxing ring, where he made a name for himself competing in both regional and national tournaments. He credits the sport with keeping him out of trouble with drugs and alcohol. Still, LaRose, like many Leech Lakers of his generation, did eventually run afoul of the law. In 1991, he pleaded guilty to third-degree assault in Cass County Court. As LaRose tells the story, the assault was in retaliation for the burglary of his trailer by a former sparring partner. To this day, he says, it is the only mark on his record.
However, two years later, LaRose and four other Leech Lakers were arrested and charged in connection with a more serious crime: the armed robbery of the Palace Casino, where LaRose once worked. According to news reports at the time, the bandits--who wore ski masks and coveralls to conceal their identities--fled the Palace with about $27,000 in cash and jewelry. The Bingo Bandits, as they were dubbed, were said to have foiled the pursuing sheriff's deputies by placing nail-studded boards along the escape route.
The charges did not stick. After two of the defendants were acquitted in jury trials, the cases against LaRose and the others were dismissed. "There were 130, 140 suspects and leads, and I was just one of them," LaRose now says. "I guess they figured I was a dumb Indian and I would plea-bargain to something I didn't do. So I waited in jail, went through the process, and the judge dismissed the charges." Before that experience, LaRose says he had entertained thoughts of working in law enforcement, maybe as a game warden or a policeman. Afterward, he started thinking about becoming involved in tribal politics.
While raising a family and working as a custodian at the Palace, LaRose made his first run for office. In 1996, he worked on the campaign of Eli Hunt, who was elected tribal chairman. Two years later, LaRose made his first bid for a seat on the tribal council. He lost that race but acquired a serious bug for politics. He ran again two years later, losing by a narrow margin in a rough-and-tumble campaign that featured repeated airings of the allegations about LaRose's supposed involvement in the Palace robbery.
"His involvement with the robbery has been debated over and over, and that probably cost him the election when he ran for district representative," observes Bill Lawrence, publisher and editor of the Native American Press/Ojibwe News and a sometime LaRose supporter. But Lawrence, whose paper ran a series of critical stories and letters about LaRose's background early in his political career, says many band members are now more interested in LaRose's reform agenda than his past. "At this point I don't think the public really cares about the robbery. I think a lot of people really believe in Archie," he says. "They know Archie and his family have been on the bottom rung for a long time, and they know they've had to scrape."
As LaRose tells it, the many allegations leveled against him--and his removal from office--were simply retaliation for his efforts to open the band's finances to public scrutiny. He claims his enemies oppose him for upsetting the tribal government gravy train. There is little disputing that he came into office with an agenda. After he was elected secretary-treasurer in 2002, LaRose immediately moved to bring in an outside auditor and, immediately thereafter, ran into stiff opposition from the band's then-chairman, Eli Hunt. Frustrated, LaRose and his allies successfully petitioned for a recall vote, which resulted in Hunt's removal from office. After that, LaRose's critics went to the media, telling reporters at Minnesota Public Radio and the Bemidji Pioneer of concerns that a gang called the Native Mob might try to influence the election through violence. That violence, LaRose points out now, never materialized.
"They even claim I'm linked to the Native Mob," LaRose says. "Well, if I'm in a gang, it's a one-man gang," he shrugs. "I'm a family man. I've got four kids and a wife I've been with for 15 years." LaRose acknowledges that he has friends and family members who have been caught up in drugs and crime. But that, he notes, is not unusual on the reservation, and he shouldn't be blamed for the actions of others. And he lets it go at that, with little indication that he has been personally wounded by any of the accusations or criticisms.
That durability is the defining feature of LaRose's political career. "The thing about Archie is he's like Cassius Clay. He can take a beating," observes Frank Bibeau, a band member and former tribal attorney. "Two years ago, Archie was just a young guy who knocked on everybody's door, spent some time visiting with elders. People liked that. But I've been very impressed with the ways he's grown over the past two years. In the last year, when things really started popping, he was the one urging people to be calm and talk to each other."
Last week, LaRose and his opponent in the February 15 general election, Donnie Headbird, came to Minneapolis to a meeting of about 30 Leech Lake band members who live in the cities. For two hours, LaRose and Headbird listened quietly as the band members discussed various matters, ranging from the current state of affairs on the reservation to the problems with the Indian Child Welfare Act. Near the end of the meeting, both candidates were invited to speak. Headbird stood up first. A heavy-equipment operator and Marine Corps veteran, Headbird said he was running because he had been encouraged to do so by people who were weary of the constant tumult on the tribal council. He talked about his sobriety. He talked about the need for more programs for the youth and the elderly. He was modest and brief. And he talked very little about a specific agenda for the job of secretary-treasurer.
Then LaRose took the floor. He strode to the center of the room and launched into a full-blown oration. He discussed his origins on Tract 33. He noted that, unlike the other members of the current tribal council, he didn't come to the council with any professional experience or a high-paying job. He defended his largesse on emergency assistance and talked about the need for more oversight of tribal programs. He suggested that the "sovereign dollar"--annual monies generated by agreements with the state--could be divided among individual band members. "No one should be suffering or struggling on the reservation, but the majority are. They're grassroots," he said. "I'm grassroots."
His rhetoric grew more expansive. He talked about the possibility of uniting Minnesota's Ojibwe reservations into one nation. "That's my big dream," he said. "We'd be very, very powerful if we just stopped fighting among ourselves." People nodded. And then he returned to the subject of his tenure as secretary-treasurer, defending his actions small and large. He said he, too, had heard about the abuse of the emergency assistance, and said he had forwarded information to the FBI.
As LaRose continued his monologue, George Goggleye, the current tribal chairman, and Mick Finn, a council member, got up from their seats. They started walking toward the door. They paused here and there to shake hands and exchange pleasantries. Looking a touch irritated, LaRose complained that "out of respect" the council members should have stayed until he finished.
And then, like a boxer, he shook it off, put his head down and plowed on with his speech.

DALLAS -- The Oklahoma Sooners hung half a hundred again. Doing it against their arch rivals made this one even better.
Jason White threw four touchdown passes, Mark Clayton had a school-record 190 yards receiving and the defense snagged six turnovers as the No. 1 Sooners routed No. 11 Texas 65-13 Saturday.
Oklahoma (6-0, 2-0 Big 12) set series records for points and most lopsided victory -- for the second time in four years. It was a triumphant way for the Sooners to claim their first four-game winning streak over the Longhorns since 1985-88.
The top feat, though, was breaking 50 points for the fourth straight game. Barry Switzer, who loved to "hang half-a-hundred" on undermatched foes, never even did it more than twice in a row. Only Oklahoma's national champion team in 1956 did it three straight.
The Longhorns (4-2, 1-1) made it easy for them.
Texas hadn't thrown an interception all season, then starter Chance Mock and backup Vince Young each had one in the first quarter. The Sooners scored touchdowns off both. Then Young lost a fumble that led to a field goal and threw an interception that Jonathan Jackson returned 21 yards for a touchdown.
White completed his first eight passes and finished 17-of-21 for 290 yards. Renaldo Works had 112 yards on 15 carries, scoring on a 54-yard run.< ^No. 2 Miami 22, No. 5 Florida St. 14=
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- Sean Taylor returned an interception 50 yards for a touchdown and No. 2 Miami forced quarterback Chris Rix into four turnovers.
After nine losses the previous two years, the Seminoles (5-1) hoped to re-establish themselves as a national power with their first win against the Hurricanes since 1999.
Instead Miami (6-0) proved once again to be the best team in the state -- having beaten Florida 38-33 last month -- and showed it remains a major player for the national title after winning for the 40th time in 41 games.
Jon Peattie kicked three field goals and Jarrett Payton scored on a 14-yard pass from Brock Berlin.
Each team turned the ball over five times in the rain and the offenses struggled to move the ball on a field full of puddles.
While Miami built a 22-0 lead by harassing Rix, the Hurricanes made their share of mistakes.
Miami lost two fumbles and Berlin threw three interceptions, including one that set up Willie Reid's leaping 18-yard touchdown grab in the third quarter that made it 22-7.< ^No. 23 Wisconsin 17, No. 3 Ohio St. 10=
MADISON, Wis. -- Backup quarterback Matt Schabert hit Lee Evans with a 79-yard touchdown pass with 5:20 left as Wisconsin ended third-ranked Ohio State's 19-game winning streak.
The defending national champion Buckeyes had just tied the game on Michael Jenkins' 6-yard catch from Craig Krenzel with 6:09 remaining.
Evans, the Big Ten's leading receiver, had been blanketed by cornerback Chris Gamble so well all night that he hadn't had a single pass thrown his way.
But on second-and-9 from the 21, Evans beat Gamble off the line and safety Will Allen was slow getting over. Schabert hit Evans in stride at the Ohio State 48 and Evans raced into the end zone.
Booker Stanley carried 31 times for 125 yards, including a 24-yard run that sealed it in the closing minute after Schabert's 6-yard naked bootleg on third-and-2 off a great fake to Stanley.
The Badgers improved to 6-1 overall and 3-0 in the Big Ten. The Buckeyes fell to 5-1 and 1-1.
Schabert, a junior who had just two touchdowns tosses in his career, was in because starter Jim Sorgi was injured when Buckeyes linebacker Robert Reynolds shoved his fingers into his throat in the third quarter.< ^No. 4 Virginia Tech 51, Syracuse 7=
BLACKSBURG, Va. -- DeAngelo Hall scored on 58- and 60-yard punt returns in the first quarter and ran 24 yards with a reverse for another touchdown as Virginia Tech routed Syracuse.
The Hokies (6-0, 2-0 Big East), who are leaving for the Atlantic Coast Conference next season, also blocked a field goal -- the 100th block under coach Frank Beamer.
Bryan Randall opened the scoring with a 75-yard touchdown run on the Hokies' third play. Kevin Jones gained 131 yards for the Hokies, including TD runs of 33 and 25 yards in the third quarter.
Syracuse's Walter Reyes, who entered the game as the nation's leading rusher with 170 yards per game, was held to 40 yards on 16 carries. Reyes scored on a 1-yard dive, extending his TD streak to 10 games. Syracuse is 3-2 overall and 0-1 in the Big East.< ^Florida 19, No. 6 LSU 7=
BATON ROUGE, La. -- Chris Leak was 18-of-30 for 229 yards and two touchdowns as Florida beat LSU
Coming off its second loss in the last three games, Florida (4-3, 2-2 Southeastern Conference), made it look easy against the Tigers (5-1, 2-1). Leak, a freshman making his third start, helped Florida outgain LSU 310 yards to 287.
The victory came after a tough week for the Gators, who fell out of the Top 25 after last week's 20-17 loss to Mississippi.
On 12 possessions, LSU punted eight times and had two interceptions, a fumble, and failed to pick up a first down on fourth-and-2. LSU's only touchdown came when Skyler Green returned the first punt of the game 80 yards.< ^Auburn 10, No. 7 Arkansas 3=
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. -- Carnell Williams ran for 150 yards and a touchdown on 35 carries and Auburn shut down the Southeastern Conference's top rushing attack.
Arkansas (4-1, 1-1 Southeastern Conference) had been averaging 247.8 yards on the ground -- behind Cedric Cobbs' 140.5-yard average -- but Williams' stole the attention as Auburn (4-2, 3-0) remained in contention to win the SEC West. He opened the game with a 44-yard run and had 124 yards by halftime for the Tigers .
In addition to having the game's only touchdown, Williams' 1-yard plunge on fourth-and-1 kept a drive alive at the Tigers 45 just after Arkansas had narrowed the score to 7-3. Seven plays later, John Vaughn kicked a 34-yard field goal to put Auburn up 10-3 with 9:50 left in the game.
A pair of holding penalties on receiver George Wilson wiped out a pair of long Arkansas runs -- a 68-yarder by Cobbs in the third quarter and a 78-yarder by Matt Jones that would have tied the game a minute after Vaughn's field goal.< ^No. 8 Georgia 41, No. 13 Tennessee 14=
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- David Greene was 22-of-27 for 228 yards and one touchdown to help Georgia move closer to defending its Southeastern Conference championship.
The Bulldogs (5-1, 3-1) moved atop the SEC East division standings by winning their fourth straight game over the Volunteers (4-2, 2-2), who suffered their worst loss home loss since Florida's 31-0 win in 1994.
Greene improved to 3-0 against Tennessee as Georgia led from the beginning and scored 21 points off three turnovers.
Emotions were high for both teams evident by many strong hits, an ejection and a scuffle between players after Georgia intercepted a pass in the third quarter.
Trailing 13-7, the Volunteers' chances for a rally started to vanish after Tennessee's Casey Clausen fumbled near the goal line. Georgia's Sean Jones picked it up and ran 92 yards for a touchdown as time ran out in the first half.< ^No. 9 Southern California 44, Stanford 21=
LOS ANGELES -- Matt Leinart threw three scoring passes to Mike Williams as Southern California built a big early lead.
Freshman LenDale White ran for a pair of touchdowns and the Trojans (5-1, 2-1 Pac-10) passed and ran virtually at will in the first half to build a 41-14 lead over the Cardinal (2-2, 0-2).
Leinart and Williams hooked up on scoring passes of 40, 18 and 3 yards, and White ran for touchdowns of 6 and 3 yards.
The Trojans outgained the Cardinal 413 yards to 91 in the first half, then mostly kept the ball on the ground in the second.
Leinart, picking the Stanford secondary apart, finished 18-of-27 for 260 yards and the three touchdowns. Williams had seven catches for 129 yards, all in the first half. White carried 23 times for 108 yards.< ^Missouri 41, No. 10 Nebraska 24=
COLUMBIA, Mo. -- Brad Smith tied a school record with four touchdowns and Missouri scored twice on trick plays as the Tigers ended a 24-game losing streak against Nebraska.
Nebraska (5-1, 1-1 Big 12) committed five turnovers in losing to Missouri (5-1, 1-1) for the first time since 1978, and for the first time at Faurot Field since 1973.
Missouri trailed 24-14 in the third quarter before outscoring Nebraska 27-0 in the fourth quarter. Nebraska entered the game with the nation's top-ranked defense and was coming off its first shutout in three seasons.
Smith rebounded from a poor outing in a 35-14 loss two weeks ago that dropped Missouri from the Top 25. He was 13-for-27 for 180 yards and his first two interceptions of year, making up for those errors with 123 yards on 18 carries plus a 47-yard touchdown reception off a lateral to Darius Outlaw. The Tigers then took a 28-24 lead on a fake field goal when holder Sonny Riccio, the backup quarterback, hit Victor Sesay for a 15-yard touchdown pass with 11:21 left.< ^Notre Dame 20, No. 15 Pittsburgh 14=
PITTSBURGH -- Julius Jones broke Notre Dame's single-game rushing record with 262 yards and scored twice and the Fighting Irish, the nation's eighth-worst rushing team, surprised Pittsburgh by switching to a power running game.
The Irish (2-3) turned two Pitt turnovers into scores, again disrupted quarterback Rod Rutherford with their constant pressure and revamped their offense during a bye week to beat Pitt (3-2) for the third straight season.
Only two weeks after throwing 62 times for 297 yards in a 23-10 loss to Purdue, Notre Dame nearly abandoning its passing game -- it completed only five passes for 33 yards -- to repeatedly run at a Pitt defense that has allowed 1,480 yards in its last three games.
Jones, a senior who was academically ineligble last season, had only 152 yards on 43 carries this season. Jones, who ran for 718 yards as a junior in 2001, broke the record of 255 yards set by Vagas Ferguson against Georgia Tech in 1978.
Jones had TD runs of 25 and 49 yards.< ^No. 16 N. Illinois 40, Cent. Michigan 24=
MOUNT PLEASANT, Mich. -- Michael Turner ran for a season-high 199 yards and two touchdowns for Northern Illinois.
Central Michigan (2-4, 0-3 Mid-American) scored the first 17 points and kept the Huskies out of the end zone in the first half.
But the second half was all Northern Illinois (6-0, 2-0), which outscored the Chippewas 28-7 in the third quarter en route to its 13th victory in its last 14 games. Last week, Northern Illinois beat Ohio 30-23 in overtime.
Northern Illinois' Sam Hurd caught four passes for 109 yards, including a 42-yard reception.< ^No. 18 Purdue 28, Penn St. 14=
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. -- Brandon Jones ran for 149 yards and two touchdowns, and Anthony Chambers returned a punt 76 yards for another score for Purdue
It was the fifth straight win for the Boilermakers (5-1, 2-0), while Penn State (2-5, 0-3) lost its third straight Big Ten game.
Chambers set the school record for single game punt return yardage (149) and became just the second player in school history with two career returns for touchdowns. The other is Vinny Sutherland.< ^No. 21 Michigan St. 49, Illinois 14=
CHAMPAIGN, Ill. -- Jeff Smoker was 23-of-31 for 317 yards and two touchdowns and Michigan State converted three Illinois turnovers into TDs.
The Spartans (6-1, 3-0 Big Ten) scored twice after intercepting Jon Beutjer's passes deep in Illini territory. The first, by Eric Smith in the second quarter led to Tyrell Dortch's first 1-yard TD run that gave Michigan State a 14-7 lead.
Jason Harmon intercepted Beutjer's pass late in the third quarter and ran it back to the Illini 12, setting up Smoker's 21-yard TD pass to Aaron Alexander. Harmon scored on a 52-yard fumble return with 6:29 to play.< ^Oklahoma St. 38, No. 22 Kansas St. 34=
STILLWATER, Okla. -- Tatum Bell ran for 143 yards and two touchdowns and Darrent Williams returned one of his two interceptions for a score as Oklahoma State beat Kansas State.
After a season-opening loss at Nebraska that cost the Cowboys their Top 25 ranking, Oklahoma State (5-1, 1-1) has won five straight. Kansas State (4-3, 0-2 Big 12), ranked as high as No. 6 a month ago, has lost three straight.
The game turned late in the third quarter on a fake field goal call. The Cowboys faced fourth-and-7 from Kansas State's 31 when kicker Luke Phillips scampered 11 yards around the right end for a first down. Three plays later, Josh Fields hit Gabe Lindsay across the middle for the go-ahead touchdown. Ell Roberson's pass was intercepted by Williams on the next series and, three plays later, Bell scored on a 12-yard run to give the Cowboys a 35-21 lead.< ^Clemson 30, No. 25 Virginia 27, OT=
CLEMSON, S.C. -- Charlie Whitehurst's 4-yard pass to Kevin Youngblood in overtime lifted Clemson past Virginia.
Virginia (4-2, 3-1 ACC) had the ball first in the extra period and settled for Connor Hughes' 33-yard field goal after linebacker Leroy Hill stopped Alvin Pearman on a third-and-1 play.
Clemson (4-2, 2-1) then took over and Whitehurst's 12-yard pass to Duane Coleman gave the Tigers a first down at the 7. Two plays later, Whitehurst floated a pass into the left corner that Youngblood leaped to catch over defender Jamaine Winborne.
After Yusef Kelly's 13-yard touchdown run gave Clemson a 24-17 with 3:20 left, the Cavaliers tied it at 24 on Pearman's 1-yard TD run just over a minute later.

Tencent, JD.com Said in Talks to Combine E-Commerce Business
Tencent Holdings Ltd., Asia's largest Internet company, is in talks to combine its e-commerce operations with Chinese online retailer JD.com Inc., according to two people familiar with the matter.
The companies are considering options that may involve Tencent injecting its online shopping operations in return for a 6 percent stake in Beijing-based JD.com, one person said, asking not to be identified because the discussions are confidential.
A combination would marry JD.com's established market selling everything from electronics to fashion with Tencent's less-popular e-commerce platform. For JD.com, which is planning a U.S. initial public offering, the 272 million active users on Tencent's WeChat messaging service could bring increased traffic to its online store.
JD.com, backed by Russian billionaire Yuri Milner's DST Global, filed last month to raise $1.5 billion in what would be the largest initial public offering of a Chinese Internet company in the U.S. JD.com aims to to announce a deal with Tencent before the share sale, one person said.
Tencent shares fell 2.3 percent in Hong Kong as of 1:04 p.m. today in Hong Kong after Facebook Inc. agreed to acquire mobile-messaging startup WhatsApp Inc. for as much as $19 billion. WhatsApp competes with Tencent's WeChat. Spokesmen for Tencent and JD.com declined to comment.
Alibaba Listing
Shenzhen-based Tencent has sought to build out its e-commerce business to compete better with Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. by combining messaging with services including shopping and gaming. It owns the retail website Yixun.com and agreed last month to invest HK$1.5 billion ($193 million) in China South City Holdings Ltd., owner of a logistics and warehouse network.
JD.com wants to avoid listing at the same time as a potential IPO of Alibaba, China's largest e-commerce company, people familiar with the matter said last month. Alibaba, which has been valued at as much as $190 billion by analysts, plans to go public in 2014, people with knowledge of the matter said in October.
Online retailing in China more than doubled each year from 2003 to 2011 and is projected to more than triple to $395 billion in 2015 from 2011, according to a McKinsey & Co. report in March.
JD.com cited Tencent's Yixun.com retail business as an emerging competitor in its IPO filing. The company said it also faces competition from Amazon.com Inc.'s China unit as well as Alibaba's Taobao and Tmall sites.
Yixun.com, started in 2006 in Shanghai, sells products ranging from electronics to diapers. It owns a logistics network in the Shanghai region that gives it the ability to deliver orders in the city within half a day, according to its website.
The 21st Century Business Herald newspaper reported yesterday that Tencent may buy a stake in JD.com, citing an unidentified person from an investment bank.

Furnishing and opening a food establishment in our recovering economy can often seem like an intimidating and costly process. When it comes to outfitting your kitchen, spending a little time scheduling your purchase plan can help you get your hands on quality equipment for a great price. Consider the following tips as you move forward in purchasing equipment for your restaurant:
Buy Off-Season
Just as you would expect to find a better deal on winter coats in the springtime, such is the case with a large amount of commercial equipment. For example, buying an ice machine in the hot summer months will most likely cost you more than it would in December or January. Purchasing a grill in the winter will save you a few dollars as well. Follow the rule: when demand is low, prices are better. Here are a few pieces of equipment that you can expect to find at lower prices in the colder months:
- Outdoor grills
- Air conditioners
- Ice machines
- Ice cream equipment
- Snow cone machines
Purchase in December
If you are looking to purchase equipment that includes a tax rebate, such as energy saving appliances, it is ideal to make your purchase in December. Cash in when tax season is right around the corner and you can expect to get your rebate returned in a matter of weeks as opposed to purchasing earlier in the year and waiting for months to get that cash back in your pocket. If you are running on a tight budget, this approach is a great way to plan your larger expenses so you can receive kick-backs as soon as possible.
It is also important to note that major retailers often discount appliances at the end of their fiscal year . For many, this deadline hits between December and January, adding further to the appeal of shopping in December.
Buy Used Equipment
Purchasing lightly-used equipment is a guaranteed way to save money in start-up costs, although it does come with some risks. Taking this route will most likely mean that the equipment purchased will not be under warranty but this is a risk many are willing to take in order to meet commercial kitchen needs. Gas ranges, ovens and fryers have a relatively long-life span, so purchasing these pieces used is a safe bet. However, they also receive a lot of wear and tear and any upkeep will have to come out of your pocket. Steam tables are solidly built, making them highly durable and able to withstand years of use.
Be aware, though, that sometimes the cost of repairs or refurbishing a used piece of equipment can quickly add up to the cost of purchasing a new machine outright, which may be the more reliable choice in the long-term.
Keeping overhead low without sacrificing quality is a common goal for most food establishments in a bad economic climate. By purchasing off-season, taking advantage of December deals and considering quality used equipment, you'll be able to save more and stress less in the cost department.

He became a teacher of grammar at Tagaste, and lived much under the influence of his mother and his friend Alypius. About 383 he went to Rome and soon after to Milan as a teacher of rhetoric, being now attracted by the philosophy of the Sceptics and of the Neo-Platonists. His studies of Pauls letters with Alypius and the preaching of Bishop Ambrose led in 386 to his rejection of all sensual habits and to his famous conversion from mixed beliefs to Christianity. After a year in Rome again and his mothers death he returned to Tagaste and there founded a religious community. In 395 or 396 he became Bishop of Hippo, and was henceforth engrossed in duties, writing and controversy. He died at Hippo during the successful siege by the Vandals. From his large output the Loeb Classical Library offers that great autobiography the Confessions which reveal Gods action in man; On the City of God which unfolds Gods action in the progress of the worlds history, and propounds the superiority of Christian beliefs over Pagan in adversity; and some of the Letters which are important for the study of ecclesiastical history and Augustines relations with other theologians.

And the fit and finish is outstanding, making them the best looking and best designed flares on the market. If you've got a Jeep JK, check out Bushwacker's new flares today!

I've got an iTunes library of about 6000 songs plus a couple of dozen videos. For some reason, only Front Row and iTunes can see it. When I try to access the library from other applications, such as iMovie, iWeb, or any thing else, I am told that I don't have an iTunes library! Is there anyway to fix this? I am running Mac OS X 10.5.8 Leopard on an Intel Core 2 Duo iMac from 2006. In fact, I've been having this problem since Mac OS X 10.4.

Thank you for this plugin. I have two suggestions for you to consider in your code for 1.4.4.
On line 194:
$s2p_blog_url = get_bloginfo(url);
should be
$s2p_blog_url = get_bloginfo('url');
On line 196, you assume the blogurl doesn't end in a slash. This may not be true. You could therefore creating a short url with two slashes //. In addition, you don't have to have a slash after the domain name and can instead leverage the ? as the delimiter. This will same you one character (and every character helps in systems like twitter).
$short_url = $s2p_blog_url . '/?p=' . $post_id;
could be:
$short_url = ((substr( $s2p_blog_url, -1 ) == '/') ? substr( $s2p_blog_url, 0, -1 ) : $s2p_blog_url) . '?p=' . $post_id;
