PCI Council releases new PIN security standardMay 13, 2010
The group responsible for managing payment security rules has released version 3.0 of the PIN Transaction Security (PTS) standard. The new version replaces the PIN Entry Device (PED) standard in an effort to streamline point-of-sale security guidelines to also cover unattended payment terminals, such as fuel dispensers, and hardware security modules, which are nonuser facing devices used in PIN translations. The update "simplifies the testing process and eliminates overlap of documentation," according to the PCI Security Standards Council. The council also plans to release updates to its Payment Application Data Security Standard and flagship PCI Data Security Standard later this year. — DK

Indie poll shows R-71 a close call …
In just three weeks, we'll have our vote-by-mail ballots in hand. Biggest intrigue: How will we vote on Referendum 71, the so-called "everything but marriage" law?
According to a fresh Elway Poll by independent pollster Stuart Elway, the measure currently has a slim lead statewide — 46 percent to approve the law and 41 percent to reject it. Elway, who has been tracking public opinion on gay-rights issues for years, reports considerable confusion about what an affirmative or negative vote means on R-71. Grabber quote: "Overall, 10 percent of voters surveyed were planning to vote the opposite of their intention," hurting supporters of the law slightly more than opponents.
Indeed, more people told Elway they support the "everything but marriage" law than told him they supported Referendum 71. Elway notes in an aside that his polling shows much stronger support for equal rights and domestic partnerships than for full-out gay marriage. "The term 'marriage' still may be the defining line in the public debate," he says, adding "Nicknaming Washington's new law 'everything but marriage' may test how close to that line voters are willing to go, even in a blue state like Washington."
Elway's crosstabs are interesting: self-identified Democrats heavily support the new law, SB5688, with a 64 percent affirmative vote, while 71 percent of the Republicans oppose it. Independents, representing 46 percent of the sample, leaned in favor of the law 45-37. Women heavily favored the law and a plurality of the men opposed it. Voters 36 to 64 backed the measure, and those younger and older were more divided. Weekly churchgoers and those who "typically agree with Christian conservations" were inclined to reject the law. Elway said his sample of most-likely voters were inclined, 48-40, to support R-71, which he called significant in a low-turnout election year.
Footnote: Given Elway's finding on voter-confusion, we want to add yet again this explainer: If you support expanded rights for domestic partners, as adopted by the Legislative and signed by the governor, you should vote to "approve" the legislation. Currently on hold for the election, it would extend to state-registered domestic partners the full array of rights and responsibilities that married couple enjoy. Want to roll back the law? You should vote to "reject" it. Yes, opponents of the law are the sponsors of the referendum, but they're looking for a "reject" vote.

|Citrus Greening
Huanglongbing (Citrus Greening): What ARS Is
Huanglongbing (HLB), also known as Citrus Greening disease because fruit tends to turn green after ripening, undoubtedly poses the most serious threat that the Florida citrus industry has ever faced. The bacteria that cause HLB—three species of Liberibacter—probably originated in China in the early 1900s. In countries where the disease is endemic, citrus trees begin to decline within 5 to 8 years after planting and rarely bear usable fruit.
First detected in Florida in 2005; by 2008, it had been identified in most of the citrus growing counties in the state. Despite everyone's best efforts, HLB now literally threatens the survival of Florida citrus and is a potential threat to the entire U.S. citrus industry.
ARS scientists are actively engaged in research with university and industry partners on the critical components of this disease such as etiology and epidemiology, the insect vector, and the plant host's response to HLB infection.
In February 2008, members of the citrus industry requested additional input from ARS scientists, especially from researchers outside of the citrus field, to draw on the most diverse expertise possible to elicit new ideas about research needs, gaps, priorities, and opportunities.
In response, ARS convened a workshop in April 2008 at the U.S. Horticultural Research Laboratory in Fort Pierce, Florida, especially inviting ARS scientists who are leaders in their scientific fields but who are not ordinarily engaged in citrus research. These ARS scientists brought their collective expertise in animal and plant entomology, animal and plant pathology, genetics, horticulture, and microbiology to the workshop. The workshop was coordinated with the National Academy of Sciences (NAS), which had been asked by the Florida Department of Citrus to develop a Request for Proposals to manage grant funding for research leading to HLB management.
That meeting was followed in May 2008 by a workshop in Beltsville, Maryland, of key ARS citrus researchers to discuss potential new collaborations and research directions to address the needs identified at the April 2008 workshop.
On September 17-18, 2008, a group of ARS scientists, industry and university representatives from citrus producing states met with the federal regulatory agencies USDA-APHIS, FDA, and EPA to prepare for the advent of transgenic citrus to be used to combat HLB and canker to seek guidance on bringing these products to market.. This meeting was an excellent opportunity for each party to learn about what will be needed as progress is made toward this goal. Other potential new chemicals for insect control and management of the pathogen in citrus were also discussed. A team of scientists are preparing documents that summarize published data on citrus biology, pollination, gene flow and juice composition parameters; information that will be needed by the regulatory agencies as transgenic citrus products are developed.
Current ARS Research
ARS has initiated a significant research program, even before the 2008 workshops.
ARS scientists have established partnerships with industry and university colleagues, and these collaborations continue to grow and diversity as new knowledge is developed. The ultimate goal is to effectively manage major threats to the citrus industry in the U.S., in particular, citrus greening, or HLB, and canker. A broad approach is being taken to target the main components of the disease triangle; the host, the pathogen and associated organisms, and the insect vector. Insect management, repellants and control are critical to disease control. Manipulating citrus groves by varying nutrition and high density planting may reduce the impact of the diseases. As scientists learn more about the bacterium associated with HLB, methods for directly impacting its growth in the citrus host will be devised. Conventional breeding and genetically modified citrus varieties are being explored. All of these components of disease intervention are being investigated by ARS scientists and colleagues, and will be utilized for to benefit the national citrus industry.
Because of the fastidious nature of HLB bacteria (Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus), a high-throughput detection technology for HLB is critical for HLB research and disease management. Polyclonal antibodies against HLB pathogen have been developed by researchers at Fort Pierce, Florida, and a series of primers and probes were also developed for better detection of HLB using PCR or in situ hybridization. These technologies have been transferred to university and state regulatory research laboratories for HLB detection and other research purposes.
ARS scientists at Frederick, Maryland, determined the effect of imidacloprid insecticide on transmission of HLB. Following incorporation of the insecticide into sweet orange seedlings, infectious psyllids were aspirated on the seedlings and monitored for survival and disease transmission. Although most psyllids died within the first 24 hours, strong symptoms of HLB infection were evident by 8 weeks in most plants, indicating the insects could transmit the causal HLB bacterium before dying.
ARS scientists at Beltsville, Maryland developed and validated the first real-time and quantitative PCR assay for the greening pathogen. This assay was used by the USDA Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) and the Florida Department of Agriculture to confirm the presence of HLB in Florida. Producers will benefit from early detection and genetic improvement for resistance will be accelerated.
ARS scientists at Ft. Pierce and colleagues recently published the full genomic sequence of HLB bacterium, 'Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus'. This is a major scientific advance, and will enable scientists to identify genes responsible for the disease, enhance capabilities to culture this organism and determine its true role as the causal agent.
Scientists at Ft. Pierce have evidence that suggests that guava, interplanted with citrus, prevents the spread of greening. Scientists in Japan and Viet Nam discovered that HLB did not occur in citrus groves when intercropped with guava, while control plots had over 30 percent infection. The mechanism may be volatile compounds produced by guava which disrupt the ability of the psyllid vector of HLB to locate its citrus host. Studies are underway in field plots to validate these preliminary findings and to identify the potential volatiles.

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2016
Origins Available: Irish, Scottish
Before Irish names were translated into English, laughlin had a Gaelic form of O Lochlainn, which is derived from a Norse personal name.
The surname laughlin was first found in County Clare (Irish: An Clár) located on the west coast of Ireland in the province of Munster, where they held a family seat from very ancient times.
The scribes who created documents long before either the Gaelic or English language resembled their standardized versions of today recorded words as they sounded. Consequently, in the Middle Ages the names of many people were recorded under different spellings each time they were written down. Research on the laughlin family name revealed numerous spelling variations, including Loughlin, O'Loughlin, Loughnane and others.
This web page shows only a small excerpt of our laughlin research. Another 270 words (19 lines of text) covering the years 1281, 1300, 1789, 1819, 1828, and 1842 are included under the topic Early laughlin History in all our PDF Extended History products and printed products wherever possible.
More information is included under the topic Early laughlin Notables in all our PDF Extended History products and printed products wherever possible.
Many Irish families boarded ships bound for North America in the middle of 19th century to escape the conditions of poverty and racial discrimination . Although these immigrants often arrived in a destitute state, they went on to make important contributions to the emerging nations of the United States and Canada. An inquiry into many immigration and passenger lists has revealed many early immigrants to North America bearing the laughlin family name:
laughlin Settlers in United States in the 17th Century

The motto was originally a war cry or slogan. Mottoes first began to be shown with arms in the 14th and 15th centuries, but were not in general use until the 17th century. Thus the oldest coats of arms generally do not include a motto. Mottoes seldom form part of the grant of arms: Under most heraldic authorities, a motto is an optional component of the coat of arms, and can be added to or changed at will; many families have chosen not to display a motto.
Motto: Anchora salutis
Motto Translation: The anchor of salvation.

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. (KKCO) - With low water levels and ongoing drought conditions, water conservation is a big concern for officials and residents across the state.
Parks and Recreation officials in Denver have taken drastic steps, closing parks to practices until next month because the grass is so distressed already.
While the Valley has been experiencing drought conditions this year, the City of Grand Junction Parks and Recreation officials say it's game on when it comes to our practice fields.
"They'll be in very good, playable shape. As far as the root system and those types of things we're going to be working on them all the time, but we have no plans to shut them down," said Mike Vendegna, with the City of Grand Junction Parks and Recreation.
Park officials prepared for the upcoming summer months and low amount of water long ago.
"You plan ahead all year long. If you don't get the proper amount of water that you need, by cultural methods you can dry that root system down," said Vendegna.
We're not totally in the clear though, residents could notice some areas drying up as officials work to conserve water.
"We have cut out areas that have turf throughout the city that are more ornamental in nature that require water," said Tom Ziola, with the City of Grand Junction Parks and Recreation.
Parks and Recreation officials say the number one key to keeping the fields healthy all year-long is in the root system.
So even when the grass goes dormant during winter; strong and healthy roots will make for bright green fields in the spring.

Tallahassee, Florida (Press Release) —
The Second Annual North Florida Wine and Food Festival, a five-day series of events featuring fine wines and tantalizing foods, will take place this week, Sept. 8-12, in Tallahassee. This year's festival expands on last year's sellout inaugural launch. Proceeds will support the Florida State University Dedman School of Hospitality's program in wine education.
"We are so proud of the Dedman School of Hospitality's dedication to providing an individualized education while expanding through regional and national programs and partnerships," said Caryn L. Beck-Dudley, dean of Florida State's College of Business. "This type of event is unique in that it provides invaluable experience for our students, but also is an upscale series of events for our local community and visitors."
Mark Bonn, the Robert H. Dedman Professor of Service Management in the Dedman School and organizer of the festival, said the events focus on educating students while providing an exclusive event for participants.
"The North Florida Wine and Food Festival provides the region the opportunity to have fun tasting new wines and foods, gaining wine education and experiencing the outstanding service commitment of our students while supporting future leaders in the food and beverage industry," Bonn said. "Wines from around the world are offered to appeal to everyone's palate."
The main event of the festival features more than 300 wines and food from over 30 restaurants from across the region, providing a taste of everything North Florida has to offer. In fact, several restaurants that are donating food are owned or operated by FSU hospitality graduates.
"As one of the many local graduates of the hospitality school at FSU, I enjoy giving back through participating in these events to support the highly rated program," said Jay Burleson, owner of Tallahassee's Café Cabernet and a 1998 alumnus.
Tickets to individual events can be purchased in advance at the website below or can be paid by cash or check at the door.
Events are as follows:
* The festival begins Wednesday, Sept. 8, with an "Evening of Bubbles" from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. in the Grand Ballroom of the University Center Club. The night of glamour and entertainment will feature champagne and sparkling wines; a martini station; seafood and pasta; fruits and cheeses; desserts; and a fashion show, ideal for ladies looking for a midweek "girls night out," or for couples ready to enjoy a memorable night out together. Admission to this event is $50 per person.
* "The Winemaker's Dinner" will take place the following evening (Thursday, Sept. 9), from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. in the Osceola Sports Grill, University Center Club, and will feature a winery representative from a top California vineyard. Expect an intimate fine-dining experience pairing superior wines selected by the featured guest with a multi-course dinner prepared by Chef Jim Koenigsberg of the Dedman School of Hospitality and served by students of the school. Tables are available for $900 each for eight guests; individual seats are $125 each.
* On Friday, Sept. 10, event-goers can trade in goblets for golf clubs beginning at 9 a.m. as the North Florida Wine and Food Festival Golf Tournament tees off at SouthWood Golf Club, voted one of the "Top 25 Public Golf Courses in Florida" by Golf Digest. This shotgun-format tournament includes breakfast, lunch, beverages, giveaways, prizes and trophies. Tickets are $500 for four-person teams; individual tickets are available for $125.
* The "Grand Tasting" finale, on Sunday, Sept. 12, will happen from 5 to 8 p.m. at the University Center Club Grand Ballroom. It will feature more than 300 fine wines accompanied by deliciously prepared foods donated by 30 of the most popular restaurants in the region. Two educational wine programs will be offered. The first wine education program (5-6 p.m.) will be taught by Kirk Baker, regional manager for Frederick Wildman & Sons, one of the world's largest importers of fine French and Italian wines. His presentation addresses "Understanding French Wine" and includes an understanding of regions, a comprehension of French wine labels and ideal food pairings. Check the festival website for details on wines that Baker will feature, along with information about the second wine education program (6:15-7:15 p.m.). A silent auction, with items ranging from exciting weekend getaways and challenging golf rounds to catered dinner parties and delectable wines, concludes the evening's event and the North Florida Wine & Food Festival. VIP tickets, allowing early admission at 4 p.m., are $125. General admission tickets are $50.

Just how much does Jenelle Evans make for appearing on MTV's Teen Mom? Rumors have flown before, and now rag mag Star claims to have not only the numbers, but details on curious perk the cast often receives.
According to anonymous sources whispering in Star's ear, Jenelle Evans' Teen Mom salary is $75,000. Shocking? Perhaps not, but how about that she's not the only one in the family raking in dough?! The source said, "Jenelle gets paid $75,000 a season and her mom gets paid $65,000: she calls her an overpaid babysitter."
Though Jenelle Evans refuted the Teen Mom salary story on Twitter Thursday ("that's not true at all") the otherwise employed star does seem to have plenty of money to pay for her recent breast augmentation, vacations and breadsticks…or perhaps those are on the house?
The source went on to tell Star, "She also gets a lot of gift cards to places like The Olive Garden."
Recently Jenelle Evans fought off another set of pesky rumors that accused her of either getting fat or being pregnant again. Along with the photo above the recently engaged star tweeted:
- "No, I'm not pregnant. No, I'm not fat. Check out my new bathing suit. I love it. So bright!"
- "I gained weight from my surgery and now all that extra weight is gone. I have birth control in my arm — it's called Implanon."
- "Maybe if I stop eating for a week my fiance would love me and I wouldn't be so [fat]. Tabloids can stop saying I'm pregnant."
As for the other Teen Mom stars, the source said, "Catelynn Lowell and Tyler Baltierra (who gave their daughter up for adoption) have enough money to buy both of their mom's cars, and Tyler paid for his sister to get a boob job."
Maci Bookout "was able to buy a house with her profits," and mom of twins, Leah Messer, "believes she could make $100,000 just from her wedding. The twice-married star apparently "makes the most of all the girls in Teen Mom 2 because she held out the longest on her contract."
As for Kailyn Lowry? No number details, but by the looks of her Twitter feed it's enough to pay for a large tattoo back piece. Along with the photo below she tweeted Thursday, "3 more sessions then it'll finally be done. Summer 2012!"
Are you surprised by how much Jenelle Evans and the other Teen Mom stars make?

Four Paulson Europe Partners Share $52.8 Million Profit
William Hutchings of Financial News reports that Paulson Europe — the Continental arm of Paulson & Co. — managed to make a tenfold return on investments through the early part of last year. Click here for the full story.
The European arm of one of one of few remaining successful hedge funds increased profits tenfold by making record gains for investors in the 12 months to March 2008.
March 2008 represents the most recent accounts available.
London-based Paulson Europe increased its profits from to £37.1m, or $52.8 million, in the year ended March 31 2008 from £3.5m in 2007, according to its financial statements just published at the UK's Companies House. The profit is available for distribution to the four members of the partnership.
The profits reflected an increase in the partnership's fee income, earned from helping to manage US-based Paulson & Co.'s funds, to just over £40m from from just under £4m. Paulson Europe's expenses were small in comparison to its revenues, apart from the cost of the staff, which was £2.6 million
The profit attributable to the highest paid member, thought to be Paulson Limited, a corporate member owned by Paulson & Co – and, ultimately, by the company's founder, John Paulson – was £31m, or $44 million.
The remaining profit, amounting to more than £5m, was attributable to the partnership's three other members.
Paulson Europe's profits referred to a financial year in which Paulson & Co made investors a return of 589.62% on one of its funds, turning a $500m (€380m) total initial investment in its Credit Opportunities fund into $3.5bn by shorting sub-prime mortgage backed securities. It is thought by investors and investment consultants to be the largest dollar return to be made in a year from a single hedge fund.
Paulson & Co's overall profits, including its US operations, are thought to be significantly larger than those shown by its European subsidiary.
Paulson Europe also just made almost £400 million ($577.3 million) shorting UK banks. His positions in banks Barclays, Lloyds TSB, HBOS and RBS reaped him paper gains of £394m in the four months between the start of the ban in September and its lifting two weeks ago.
Paulson & Co went on to make more gains for its investors last year, one of only about one in 10 hedge funds to do so, according to investment consultants.
Paulson Europe's partners had not returned calls by press time.

Last week in a similar edition of quick hits, I was 6-2 picking against the spread so to any compulsive gamblers reading out there—you're welcome. However, with so many tightly contested games, those of you betting on Sunday's action must have nearly suffered a heart attack.
Two games went into overtime including a Patriots come-from-behind victory over the Ravens. We saw Atlanta get upended by Philadelphia, creating tremendous parity amongst the NFC's elite. We also saw Minnesota defeat Dallas in the so-called "Panic Bowl," despite a paltry 188 yards of total offense.
Will an NFC front runner emerge in Week 7?
Can Minnesota put themselves back in the playoff picture by reaching a .500 record? Does Deion Branch's impact on the Patriots new-look offense make them a Super Bowl contender? Read on for all that and more.

The Wind Will Carry Us
Directed by: Abbas Kiarostami
Friday, May 30 - Thursday, June 5, 2014
15th anniversary! New digital restoration — DCP projection
From one of the true masters of world cinema, Abbas Kiarostami's deceptive masterpiece is at turns beautiful and enigmatic. Set in a small mountainous village, the daily routine of its inhabitants is momentarily interrupted when a small group of outsiders on a mysterious mission arrive. As the story unfolds, we learn that the strangers are a television crew sent from Tehran to await the death of an old woman in order to cover the funeral practices of the village. Unfortunately, the village operates on its own schedule and the leader of the crew spends much of his time adjusting to it and becoming acquainted with the locals.118 Minutes, In Persian with English subtitles

I got inspired this weekend to be crafty, so I decided to go ahead and tackle the wall letters. These are the letters I saw on Etsy and loved, but I refused to pay $20 PER letter when I knew I could do it myself.
I went to Michael's and got all the goods to do it for $30. I couldn't find basic circles to use, so I got circular plaques with a beveled edge and just used the back. I painted each circle the background color, first. Then, I freehanded the letters on paper and made myself stencils so I wouldn't get pencil all over the circles. Then, I started with painting the letter and added in details. I did one letter at a time. Then, I put a clear topcoat on each one to prevent scuffs or nicks and hot glued the ribbon to the back. Voila! Wall Art! Here is the finished product:
We really like how they turned out! It took about three hours to do the actual painting, and only about 15 minutes to attach the ribbon.
We also went browsing for baby furniture this weekend, and MAN are there WAY too many choices!! We got stuck between about three. Of course my favorite is the most expensive, but that's always the case. It was espresso and had lots of pretty details. Trevor fells in love with a big, chunky crib (which was awesome) but the finish was antique black, and it didn't go with the idea I had for the room. It didn't come in espresso, either. Boo. I think we'll have to go back again so we can make a final decision!

Comfort Hamburgers (or Cheeseburgers) Recipe
Comfort Hamburgers (or Cheeseburgers) Notes
Very few ingredients, but very big impact. Full of flavors that entice you to settle in and feel warm all over, with very little if any salt.
- 1 pound hamburger meat
- 1/2 vidalia onion, finely diced
- 1/2 green pepper, finely diced
- 2 tablespoons Chicago Deep Dish Pizza Pizzazz
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1 tablespoon oregano
- 1 tablespoon finely grated parmesan cheese
- 2 teaspoons chili powder
Serves / Yields
4-6 burgers
Preparation Instructions
Mix all ingredients together well with your hands. Form burger patties and toss them firmly but closely back and forth between hands (like you're playing catch, or making pizza dough). It may seem like "playing" but its the aggressive patting and massaging that mixes the ingredients thoroughly and helps burgers with ingredients stay firmly together through any grilling process. If they have 20 minutes or so to sit in the fridge and soak up the spices before grilling, even better.
Helpful Hints
Add variety any way you like. Would recommend using whole grain or high-fiber rolls and adding lots of veggies for a healthy balanced burger. Diabetic friendly that way. You can also substitute curry powder for the chili powder above and still get a hint of kick. You can use salt, but really no need. The purpose of the flavors is to compliment the burger and enhance its natural meaty flavor vs. covering it up.
You don't have to use parmesan, but it is highly recommended. There are only a few flavors in the world that have that "fifth taste", unagi, and parmesean is one (mushrooms another, chicken soup another and most meats). MSG is how unagi is usually achieved spice-wise, predominantly in Chinese cooking, but parmesean added to things is a much more natural source and much less a complex food than MSG (less headache inducing for some). This, with the meat, onion and pepper, is what helps the burger really give a taste of comfort.
You mention unagi which is Japanese for eel. I think you mean umami.
Make it Again? Val H. would make this recipe again.

BAGHDAD: Residents of a town north of Baghdad found 12 corpses with execution-style bullet wounds yesterday following fighting between rival Sunni insurgents that could eventually unravel a coalition which has seized much of northern and western Iraq.
The incident points to an intensification of infighting between the Islamic State and other Sunni groups, such as supporters of former dictator Saddam Hussein, which rallied behind the Al Qaeda offshoot last month because of shared hatred for the Shia-led Iraqi government.
Police in Muqdadiya, a town 80 km northeast of the capital, said residents from the nearby town of Saadiya found the 12 corpses yesterday after fighting overnight between Islamic State fighters and the Naqshbandi Army, a group led by Saddam allies.
Since the Islamic State swept through Iraqi cities and proclaimed its leader caliph of all Muslims last month, there have been increasing signs of conflict with other Sunni groups which do not necessarily share its rejection of Iraq's borders or its severe interpretation of Islam.
Saadiya, a mostly Sunni town, was overrun by Islamic State militants on June 10, the same day the city of Mosul fell to the insurgents. It is in Diyala, a mainly rural province where lush irrigated fields have long sheltered armed groups that resent the arrival of outsiders.
Residents say the town is a stronghold of Naqshbandi Army fighters who supported the Islamic State when it swept into the area, but have since clashed with the group.
A doctor in the Baquba morgue, where the corpses were taken, said the men all bore bullet wounds to their heads and chest, though there was no sign of torture. He said the men had been dead no more than 24 hours.
The people who found the bodies said the men were Naqshbandi fighters in their 20s and 30s, and blamed the Islamic State for the execution-style killings. The Saadiya residents brought the corpses to police in Muqdadiya because the police in their town fled on June 10 when the insurgents swept in.
Local government official Ahmad Al Zarghosi, who also fled, said that he estimated 90 percent of the town had left for the north. Zarghosi, speaking from the town of Khanaqin, said fighting had been raging for a week between Naqshbandi locals and the Islamic State militants.
Though local people said the Naqshbandi Army enjoys strong support in Saadiya, the Islamist militants are far better equipped. They have been seen with heavy weapons and military vehicles including Humvees in towns they seized last month, equipment apparently taken from the army.
The bodies of three Sunni men arrested on Sunday in Muqdadiya on terrorism charges by Iraqi SWAT forces turned up dead in the town of Abu Saida 10 km away, police said. A morgue official in Baquba said the men had been shot in the head and chest.
In the Kurdish controlled-town of Qara Tippa near the Iranian border, two members of Kurdish peshmerga forces were killed and five others wounded when a suicide bomb attack hit their local headquarters.
In Baghdad, three separate explosions occurred before nightfall yesterday, killing at least eight people and wounding more than 20.

For the first 3,100 donations made to World Vision on Giving Tuesday, December 2, Thirty-One Gifts will match each donation with the gift of a tote filled with hygiene supplies for a U.S. woman or girl in need.
It's easy to get caught up in the shopping frenzy of Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
It's also easy to forget about the very real poverty that exists here in the United States and its impact on the most vulnerable, particularly women and girls.
This Giving Tuesday — a day dedicated to giving back, after Cyber Monday — World Vision and Thirty-One Gifts are coming together to make a difference in the lives of U.S. women and girls in poverty.
The poverty rate for U.S. women remains at historically high levels, according to 2013 U.S. Census Bureau data. One in three women in America are living in or close to poverty.
This year, a unique partnership between World Vision and Thirty-One Gifts — a direct-selling company focused on personalized totes, purses, home organization solutions and more — will bring support to women and girls in need across the United States.
For each of the first 3,100 donations made to World Vision on Giving Tuesday, Thirty-One Gifts will donate a Hope Kit tote filled with essential hygiene supplies such as a toothbrush, shampoo, hairbrush, and soap.
These practical gifts will help women and girls in dire straits get back on their feet as they work toward better days.
Thirty-One Gifts independent sales consultants have assembled nearly 8,000 Hope Kits, with plans to pack thousands more.
Some Hope Kits were distributed at God's Ranch, a safe home near Tacoma, Washington, for women escaping abuse and addiction.
"I came here with nothing," explained Michelle. "I didn't have anything with me but the clothes I was wearing and a brush."
In addition to meeting tangible needs, heart-felt messages from volunteers included in the kits offer encouragement and hope.
"That touched my heart and it means a lot," Michelle said with teary eyes as she reads her note.
"Before I knew God, I didn't know love at all," said Jessie, another recipient, upon receiving her kit and reading her note. "I know now that I'm a strong, loved woman."

Bethlehem has taken an early step toward condemning the Boyd Theatre, as Moravian College signals it is having serious trouble finding the money necessary to reuse the landmark for its theater program.
The city's Blighted Property Review Committee last week took its first vote to certify the property at 30-40 W. Broad St. as blighted. Condemnation starts a long process that could put the property in the hands of the Redevelopment Authority, which would sell it.
Tony Hanna, executive director of the Redevelopment Authority, said the goal is not to take a property, but rather to "grab the owner's attention" so the building is brought up to code.

Trott takes tourists towards triumph
Keep up to date with England's Test Series against India with our in-depth day-by-day reports plus all the reaction
Jonathan Trott led the way as England looked to bat themselves to a first series victory in India for almost 28 years in the crucial fourth Test at Nagpur.
A painfully slow surface at the Vidarbha Cricket Association Stadium has not produced the kind of positive cricket one would hope for in a tense finale, yet England still had plenty of work to do when play resumed this morning.
Following India's oustanding fightback yesterday - led by skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Virat Kohli - the penultimate day of a rubber that has brought the best out of the tourists was always likely to prove crucial.
Alastair Cook's men were up for the grind, moving to the brink of a famous series success with a responsible batting performance that sums up just how far they have come since their struggles against Pakistan in the United Arab Emirates earlier this year.
Few could have predicted, with the weight of history against the tourists, that they would be in a position to seal this series heading into the final day, especially following a crushing nine-wicket loss in the opening Test.
Yet, led outstandingly by Cook, England could well emulate David Gower's side of 1984/85 after closing on 161 for three - with a lead of 165 - following India's eventual declaration at 326 for nine declared.
After the hosts had wasted a valuable hour adding 29 runs to their overnight 297 for the loss of Pragyan Ojha, Cook and Nick Compton responded with a 48-run stand that built crucial momentum.
Both eventually departed to poor umpiring decisions, Cook falling victim to Kumar Dharmasena wrongly raising the finger for the second time in the match and in the process seeing his record of scoring a century in every Test as skipper - which stands at five - come to an end.
Ravichandran Ashwin was the fortunate bowler, earning a caught-behind verdict when Cook comfortably missed the ball. Compton, having at times looked fluent en route to an impressive 34, was then given leg before off Ojha despite an inside edge, though justice was seemingly done with the ball being caught anyway.
When Kevin Pietersen fell cheaply - bowled by Ravindra Jadeja shouldering arms - just after tea, England seemed to be in a dangerous position at 92 for three - only for Trott and Ian Bell to then show character indicative of the tourists' overall performance.
On a pitch where it has proved a struggle to progress at two an over, they managed to score relatively freely in an unbroken 67-run stand spanning 23.1 overs that left India - surely seeing their chance of avoiding a first home series loss since 2004 slip away - noticeably frustrated.
That was best illustrated by both Dhoni and Kohli, heroes yesterday, chipping away at the umpire having appealed vociferously for caught-behind against Trott when the ball missed bat.
Kohli and Ishant Sharma also had words with the England number three, who - having blown a kiss in the direction of the latter - coolly responded by reaching his half-century soon after, following up a wonderful straight-driven four with a single to point.
By the close, he had taken his score on to 66, an innings featuring many beautifully timed trademark whips through midwicket, while Bell - having struggled for runs in the series - had 24, with two lovely back-foot punches through cover among the highlights of the day.
The duo walked off at stumps with a sense of purpose, knowing the job was not finished - yet maybe taking solace in knowing the ground work had been done impressively.
Evening Session
11am - STUMPS - England 161/3; Trott 66, Bell 24 - Bell plays out the last over, bowled by Ojha, and England end with a lead of 165 heading into the final day. An excellent partnership between Trott and Bell has left Alastair Cook's men in an excellent position to seal a quite sensational 2-1 series success. Join me tomorrow to see if they can!
10:52am - Amid frustrations boiling over from India, these two have kept their cool and been outstanding. Trott moves to 64 with another lovely whip through midwicket.
10:32am - After the fifty partnership is brought up, Trott is fortunate to survive a leg-before appeal off Ashwin. To be fair to umpire Dharmasena, it looked like the batsman had inside edged first - though replays showed it was pad then bat. I am not sure India can complain too much given what happened earlier in the innings.
10:15am - Few players make cricket shots look better than Bell. Ishant is just a little short and sees his delivery met by a back-foot punch that pierces a gap on the off side.
10:01am - FIFTY! Trott (106b 8x4 0x6) - Lovely shot again from Trott, who - having had to listen to a bizarre verbal onslaught from Virat Kohli following the aforementioned appeal - drives Ishant fluently for four before cutting a single that heralds an excellent half-century. Time for a drink.
9:52am - Big appeal from Mahendra Singh Dhoni after the ball flew past Trott's attempted cut off Ishant. The wicketkeeper was not happy, but no edge is showing up on replays. Good decision from umpire Kumar Dharmasena.
9:42am - Trott is really looking in good touch here; after cutting Ojha powerfully for four, he guides the left-arm spinner through fine-leg for another - albeit with the help of some poor Sachin Tendulkar fielding. And the boundary rush continues as Bell guides Ishant Sharma off the back foot through cover; excellent response to Pietersen's dismissal thus far.
9:34am - Brilliant shot from Trott, taking a slow delivery from outside off stump and whipping through midwicket for four. Bell then replicates that exact stroke, and gets the same results.
9:25am - WICKET! Pietersen b Jadeja 6; Eng 94/3 - Huge wicket for India! Twice in this match Jadeja has earned a wicket via a batsman leaving a straight ball; Trott did it first time round and now Pietersen, whose misjudgement leads to off stump being uprooted. Real pressure on Trott and Ian Bell.
9:23am - Oh, almost a wicket there. After Ojha sends down the encounter's 100th - yes 100th! - maiden, Pietersen edges an attempted cut off Ravindra Jadeja to first slip. The ball immediately went down and hit Virender Sehwag's boots, where it almost stayed. Fortunately for Pietersen, it eventually dropped to the ground.
9:09am - Good work from Cheteshwar Pujara at short-leg as he almost runs out Pietersen at the non-striker's end. The ball narrowly missed the stumps, though England's number four may well have been just back in anyway. Jonathan Trott then plays probably the best shot of the day thus far, driving Ojha convincingly down the ground for four.
9:01am - Nick Compton, by the way, was out regardless of the inside-edge as the ball was then caught. The decision stays as leg before, though. Kevin Pietersen blocks out the end of Pragyan Ojha's over, which he had completed four deliveries of prior to tea.
Afternoon Session
8:39am - TEA - WICKET! Compton lbw Ojha 34; Eng 81/2 - It's fair to say England are not enjoying the rub of the green here. Compton, who was looking in fine fettle, is given out leg before having inside-edged Ojha's delivery. And that dismissal heralds tea.
8:24am - Another boundary for Trott in the same area, this time a more orthodox one. Jadeja drops marginally short and England's number three rocks back and clips effortlessly off his back foot through leg. A Trott special that.
8:12am - Magical moment in Nagpur. The ball slips out of Ravindra Jadeja's hand, bounces several times and Trott moves on to the outfield and smashes the ball, which was rolling on the ground, through square-leg for four. Sensational.
8:09am - Terrible fielding from Virender Sehwag, who falls over the ball when there may have been a possible run-out opportunity. Trott then cuts Ishant for a comfortable three.
7:54am - A positive start from Jonathan Trott, who sweeps Ashwin fine for a boundary first ball. Four byes are then added to the score as Piyush Chawla sprays one down the leg side. Cook's dismissal, by the way, means his run of scoring centuries in every Test as skipper – a record that stands at five – is over.
7:41am - WICKET! Cook c Dhoni b Ashwin; Eng 48-1 - Well, I am not sure Kumar Dharmasena will be on Cook's Christmas card list. For the second time in the match, England's skipper has to walk off following a poor decision from the umpire; he is given out caught behind having missed Ashwin's delivery by some distance.
7:37am - A moment of good fortune for Compton as he chops an attempted cut on to his foot and sees the ball fly narrowly past off stump. There's a little turn in evidence now, though it is slow and still not as sharp as you would expect from a fourth-day pitch in India.
7:19am - And suddenly a couple of things are starting to happen; Ojha sends down a flighted delivery that hits the foot marks, turns sharply and beats everything – including Cook's drive – to go for four byes. The opener responds by crunching Ashwin to the cover boundary next over. He now has nine from 79 deliveries.
7:14am - Big appeal for leg before as Pragyan Ojha hits Compton on the pad, but it's rightly given not out as there was an inside edge. In the following over, Ashwin sees a similarly impassioned shout rejected as the ball was heading down leg. India exerting a little pressure.
6:53am - Stat time (it's safe to assume little is happening in Nagpur). The run-rate in this match is the lowest of Tests played in the last 10 years to contain at least 500 runs. That's a sign of how difficult this pitch is to score on. Compton and Alastair Cook playing things perfectly.
6:43am - Nick Compton begins the session with two via a clip to leg in an otherwise uneventful Ravichandran Ashwin over.
Morning Session
England Innings
6:01am - LUNCH – England 17/0; Cook 1, Compton 14 - England are happy to just defend and clip away the odd poor delivery, a formula that has worked in seeing them through to the interval – on the stroke of which we saw a rare four - I kid you not - when Compton edged Ravichandran Ashwin through third man. Time for a break.
5:40am - Ravindra Jadeja stops what looks like the day's first boundary as Compton clips Ishant off his pads through midwicket for three. England's openers have looked untroubled thus far.
5:19am - Solid start for England as Cook sees out a maiden from Ishant Sharma before Compton clips three off his pads in Pragyan Ojha's first over.
5:11am - Having watched India take 62 crucial minutes to score 29 runs, Nick Compton and Alastair Cook are now in the middle.
India Innings
5:04am - END OF INNINGS - India 326/9 dec - Remember my earlier musing? Well, India have decided to declare, conceding a four-run deficit. It's difficult to see what they have achieved this morning. Over to Alastair Cook and Nick Compton now.
4:51am - WICKET! Ojha b Panesar 3; Ind 317/9 - Another 20 minutes taken out of the game. There have been some singles, and from what I can remember, a lone two. Oh, and now a wicket as well. Panesar bowls Ojha via an inside edge; the ball seemed to take an age to hit the stumps after bat. Not the usual celebration you would see from Monty, whose 50 overs have yielded just 73 runs.
4:31am - Here is a thought: if the run-rate does not pick up substantially, will India declare? Their only hope of winning this game is to bowl England out relatively quickly and leave enough time to chase a total. The latter will not be easy given both sides have struggled to score at more than two an over on this slow – and I mean slow! – surface. Over 30 minutes have already been lost this morning.
4:27am - Immediately after the message, Ashwin trots down the pitch and hits over the top, not finding his timing and immediately taking the single. England, meanwhile, are setting the field back, seemingly content for India to score one to two runs an over.
4:18am - Anderson, bowling round the wicket, sends down a grubber that misses Ashwin's bat and off stump. That over followed the same path as the previous one before a drink – and maybe a message – was sent on for the batsmen. I imagine it was along the lines of: 'Get on with things'.
4:14am - Monty Panesar comes in, Ashwin defends four deliveries, takes a single from the fifth ball and Ojha blocks the last. England will take another 30 overs of this. Poor situational cricket from India, who should be trying to take as many runs as they can, and quickly.
4:10am - Ravichandran Ashwin was impressive in the last Test with the bat, and is now not taking singles that would expose Ojha. Not sure that makes much sense on this surface; India are the only side that need a win here and England, 2-1 up in the series, will be happy to watch time being taken out of the game.
4:02am - Pragyan Ojha plays out the final five deliveries of Swann's 31st over, which he started yesterday evening with the wicket of Piyush Chawla. James Anderson in at the other end.
Pre-Play News
3:58am - Therefore, the aim for England will be to claim the final two wickets and then bat for as long as possible on a surface that remains extremely slow.
3:46am - An excellent late fightback from England yesterday following Virat Kohli and Mahendra Singh Dhoni's long partnership left the contest in the balance. The hosts will resume 33 in arrears on 297 for eight when play gets under way in 15 minutes.

Lady Antebellum's Hillary Scott Is Getting Her Own Tour Bus
Hillary Scott of Lady Antebellum is breaking away from the boys . . . kinda.
You already know Hillary is pregnant and you know she's married to the band's drummer, Chris Tyrrell. And that's why new mom, dad and baby will start riding on their own separate tour bus when Lady A hits the road in the future, Hillary tells The Tennessean.
"It will be a traveling road family," Hillary says. "We're already a family, and this is the first little addition."
But she also admits to being "kind of sad" about not riding with Charles Kelley and Dave Haywood on the road.
Don't worry about band unity, though, Dave says.
"I feel like these moments have brought us closer together instead of driving us apart," he says. "It's an honor to be able to be part of a group that's like that."

As You Like It
by William Shakespeare
As You Like It Act 2, Scene 3 Summary
- Orlando is on his way back to Oliver's house when he meets Adam, their old, family servant.
- Adam says Oliver has heard about Orlando's victory and is concerned about the effect that it's going to have on the ever-growing Orlando Fan Club.
- Oliver plans to burn down Orlando's house, which wouldn't be so bad if he didn't plan on Orlando being in it at the time.
- Orlando doesn't know where to go. Even if he ran away, he'd have to do something drastic—like become a highway robber— to support himself, which isn't appealing to him.
- Adam, kind and elderly, has some money he's been stashing away for retirement (500 crowns) and he offers his life savings to Orlando, suggesting that they could live on it a while if they ran away together.
- Orlando tells us that Adam is an old-school servant, serving for duty and not money, which is a compliment.
- Orlando decides the two will leave together and settle for a simple life.
- Adam says he's lived at Sir Rowland's house from age seventeen to now, when he's almost 80. Adam will be glad to leave and die well, without being indebted to any master.

This week, many people around the country will be celebrating America's independence with a backyard barbeque, fireworks displays and daytime boating adventures through their local waterways.
While boating on its own is a great time, being on the water for a national holiday just feels like freedom. Whether you will be enjoying the Boston Pops, participating in fun and games on the Great Lakes or heading to Newport Beach in California for their acclaimed fireworks show, make sure that you have everything you need for you and your guests to have the best possible holiday.
Here are just a few must-have items for play and practicality:
Communication - First thing is first, make sure that you have means of communicating with other boaters, people on land and, if necessary, rescue workers. The best way to ensure that you will be able to get in touch with anyone is by having a satellite telephone on board. This product does not rely on telephone towers like a normal cell phone, and therefore gets much better reception. If you are looking for a higher-end product, consider those offered by Iridium. But for a more budget-conscious boater, Globalstar and SPOT offer affordable and durable models.
Fishing - What better way to celebrate America's independence than with one of the nation's most popular pastimes? Whether fishing on a lake or in open water, one handy tool to have on board is a fishfinder. This device affords boaters the ability to see below the surface and scope out the catch-of-the-day. One of the great things about modern fishfinders is that many of them now come with GPS capabilities, essentially offering customers a two-in-one package deal. If you are looking for a good deal, check out the models from RayMarine or Humminbird GPS.
Stay dry – Undoubtedly, being on the water means getting a little wet. But when you want a towel or a change of clothes, it's important to be sure those items are nice and dry. The best way to keep your personal belongings from getting soaked is by keeping them in a waterproof bag or duffel. Whether you are just trying to keep a phone or iPad from water damage or aiming to keep your towel from absorbing stray splashes, there are a lot of options for waterproof bags and cases. These necessary boat accessories even come with the added feature of buoyancy, which means that it will float if accidentally knocked overboard. Dry Pak, Aryca and Waterbrands offer an array of products in colors and styles that are sure to suit your needs.
Water sports – With all the technicalities out of the way, now it's time to have some fun! Make sure that your boat is well equipped with all the best treats and toys so that both kids and adults will have a blast. This year, we recommend products from AirHead, Rave Sports and Full Throttle. All three brands offer affordable, durable and fun-inducing products for tubing and other water sports. No matter what tub or inflatable toy you choose, remember to also purchase a new, well-tested rope to attach the product to your boat. Ropes can deteriorate year-to-year, so for safety, and all-day fun, make sure you have a product that will last.
While we are only a few weeks into the summer, the boating season is already in full swing. Make sure that you have all that you need for fun for the whole family. For more information on any of the products listed here, contact ePal Inc. today. Our staff will be sure to outfit you with all your boating needs for the ultimate Fourth of July.
