The Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party happens to be one of the oldest and biggest political parties in Malaysia today. This is a work that recounts the constructed nature of PAS, as a party that has undergone several transformations - from a left-leaning anti-colonial party in the 1950s and 1960s, to a right-leaning communitarian party in the 1970s, to a party inspired by the Iranian revolution in the 1980s, to its present avatar as a pro-democracy party. It shows how PAS has evolved along a non-linear path, and was shaped by a host of internal and external variable factors that impacted upon Malaysia and its complex society.
The Chinese language movement in Malaysia was launched by Chinese educationists to demand the recognition of Chinese as an official language and to legitimise the status of Chinese education in the national educational system. In the process, the official language issue evolved into an ethnic issue that strained ethnic relations between the Chinese and the Malays with severe political implications. This work examines the politics of language in Malaysia during a crucial period when the nation-building process was in its formative stages. It focuses on the contrasting linguistic assertions of the Chinese educationists and the Malay nationalists as well as the attempt by the government to resolve these assertions through an accommodative approach. Language and ethnicity remain a relevant issue in contemporary Malaysia, especially when it involves the vernacular primary school system which has evoked intense ethnic contestation over its actual functional role in the nation-building process.
This unique book explores the exciting new democratic spaces that open up when budgets get participatory. The experiences of gender responsive budgeting meet the world of participatory budgeting, both of which have gained traction since the 1980s. The chapters bring together GRB and PB policy makers, practitioners, researchers and civil society actors to share and review their respective journeys. The book is a valuable contribution to current debates on re-thinking GRB and PB and the need to synergize both approaches to achieve gender equality, social justice and good governance.
"Amongst the select group of constitutional law advocates in Malaysia, Tommy Thomas ranks among the best - fearless, dedicated, committed and vocal in his decades-old pursuit to entrench respect for fundamental rights and liberties for the ordinary Malaysian…This timely collection of essays should be read by lawyers and non-lawyers alike for its valuable insights into important constitutional issues, and for the thinking jurist, it will serve as a beacon of conscience into what is right, correct and proper under the Constitution." - Dato' Mohamad Ariff Yusof, Retired Judge of the Court of Appeal.
Singapore can be described as exceptional: in glowing terms of being exemplary and beautifully modern. Singapore can also be presented in a critical light: as being in a state of exception, justifying extreme socioeconomic, political and military measures derived from a constructed state of crisis. This is a book of well-rounded commentaries and observations from a broad range of disciplines. Many commentators share the impulse to propel Singapore into the global arena, and just as many would carefully analyse the hairline fissures. As an advanced post-industrialised Asian society, Singapore has to constantly upkeep itself as a utopian reference and inspiration. Contributors in this publication have shown courage and dexterity in raising constructive questions and dreaming the unimaginable.
50 of the best stories written by children about their vision of Singapore in 2065. It consists of the most bizarre and wackiest ideas that can only come from the minds of children. Who knows? What we find strange today might just be a norm tomorrow.
The Fairchild plant at Lorong 3 Toa Payoh was a poster child of the Singapore government's successful multinational policy. The iconic Silicon Valley trailblazer in integrated circuits manufacturing was among the first American multinationals to invest in 1969. The unvarnished memories of former Fairchild Singapore employees over two decades provide a unique perspective on this exciting period in Singapore's industrialisation history, and will also be useful to young professionals embarking on careers in multinational companies.
This is the true life story of "Jokowi" told in attractive graphic novel form. Rising from boyhood poverty in an urban kampung to adult success as a furniture exporter, Jokowi then entered politics during reformasi as a refereshingly honest candidate. His ascent has been meteoric: from mayor to governor to president - in less than 10 years! Filled with personal anecdotes, this charmingly illustrated book reveals the exemplary character of the first Indonesian to be elected president as an "outsider" to the traditional power and money elite.
"The inhabitants of the rainforest must be allowed to speak for themselves," wrote Bruno Manser in 1992. Manser was careful to direct public attention to the plight of his adopted people, beleaguered by human rights abuses and the destruction of their home. This book tells the story of logging in Sarawak, its devastating effects on indigenous people, and government collusion with their suffering. It is a chronicle of injustice, brutality and resistance, recounted by Penan themselves, while Manser's illustrations bring the rainforest to life. This book is an essential record of the injustices suffered by the Penan in the 1980s and 1990s, and a reminder that the struggle is not over yet.

The entire period of Mao Zedong's leadership is now portrayed as a disaster, and any scrupulous efforts at questioning this version of events have been largely ignored by the international mass media. What is interesting is that the efforts of death toll-inflating academics and media appear to have had little impact on the working people of China. Indeed anti-Communists find the resilience of Mao's popularity baffling and frustrating. The common people are simply ruled out as rational actors. Swimming against the current of the academic industry and the international mass media, the contributors to this book have begun the task of recording the views and experiences of the common Chinese people regarding the period of socialist China, as a vital source of historical truth.

What Is Art? allows young readers and interested adults to quickly immerse themselves in the world of art. Young people have formulated 27 basic questions about art, which are by turns earnest, bemused, amusing and profound: how did art begin? At what point does something become art? The easy-to-follow question-and-answer format invites the reader to dip into or browse the book at whim, finding out about historical developments and significant concepts, or gaining specific knowledge about artists, museums and works of art, in the process. Experts from the Beyeler Foundation provide accessible, anecdotal replies to each of the questions posed.

Singapore is a young nation at the crossroads of Asia and consistently faces the threat of infectious diseases. The infectious disease threats have changed with the times-it began with malaria, cholera and plague during the earliest days of the Straits Settlements; to vaccine-preventable diseases such as polio and smallpox; and now modern scourges including HIV, SARS, pandemic influenza, and antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Singapore has accomplished much to control and overcome the threat of infectious diseases.

Page 1 of 1
The Newton County Lady Rams were in for a battle all night and had to rally to win in the end.
If you've watched ESPN lately, maybe you checked the "recruits" section of the ticker at the bottom of the screen that probably read something like this, "4-star linebacker Jaquan Henderson (Covington, Georgia) verbally commits to UCLA."
Lamenting the 56-7 loss against Lowndes, Newton football has been humbled after a 4-0 start to the season. The loss, although no one ever wants to lose, comes at the perfect time for the Rams as it gave them something to think about during the bye week before they're set to face region foe Tucker this Friday at 7:30 p.m.
The constant light showers on Thursday evening couldn't stop the Newton/Tucker contest from happening and the Tucker Lady Tigers couldn't stop the Lady Rams' offense from pouring in points as Newton drowned Tucker, 14-2 on senior night.
The distance between Newton High School (4-1) and Lowndes High School (4-1) covers over 200 miles of Georgia territory and a three or four hour road trip for the Rams. Lowndes couldn't have been further ahead of Newton this past Friday as the Vikings pillaged the hearts of Newton fans that traveled with the team to the tune of a 56-7 blowout.
Ashton Hagans has never touched the floor of Newton High School's gym at a real regular season game yet, but that doesn't matter to the University of Georgia. They've seen enough of Hagans in AAU and throughout the summer league to offer him before he's scored his first high school basket.
Newton High School's Lady Rams thrived and won after a strong scoring burst in the third inning to take the win from the Lakeside Lady Vikings. The Newton Lady Rams won 10-2 by mercy rule.
Coming off a thriller in Rome going for a fourth-straight win, Newton found itself on the road yet again, against another tough opponent in Westlake. The Rams, however, came out of the game unscathed as Newton's offensive line tossed Westlake's defense around like ragdolls and the ground-and-pound game led the Rams to a 27-7 victory. Newton's Kurt Taylor Jr. finished with 30 carries for 209 yards and two touchdowns.
Newton County Sheriff's Deputy Clarence White and the Newton Rams coaching staff came together to build a connection between the Rams and the community as well as give the young players a sense of giving back.
Newton was supposed to run away with this game, but with two weeks to plan Rome had other things in mind and they matched Newton almost point-for-point on the night. The Wolves took their first lead of the game with less than 50 seconds left to play with a 33-29 lead, but Newton answered on the first play from scrimmage when senior QB Romario Johnson tossed a 77-yard touchdown pass to JJ Holloman to take a 35-33 lead after the blocked PAT. Newton's defense held tight in the final 19 seconds to win the game.
It's been well-documented that Newton softball's best player is senior shortstop Ciara Bryan. Flosoftball took it a step further naming Bryan to its First Team All-American team.
Storylines to follow:
Newton softball is coming off a season that saw the Lady Rams lose in the region championship to Alcovy and get bounced from the first round of the state playoffs. The Lady Rams didn't lose much from that team, and the experience for the young team that they were last year projected them to be much better this year. So far they're off to a slow start on that front as they fell to Shiloh 7-3 to open the season and lost to Locust Grove and Peachtree Ridge later in the week.
Eastside came out in full force, like this game had playoff implications, and Newton came out like it was a scrimmage, which it was, but being the rivals that the two teams are bragging rights were on the line and the Eagles struck first on an Austin Holloway touchdown pass to take a 7-0 lead early in the first quarter.
Kurt Taylor Jr. has slowly been gaining attention from colleges across the nation. He's been on multiple unofficial visits and met coaches from UGA to Rutgers, but it means nothing if they don't make the three-star running back an offer. Michigan was added to the list of schools that have offered Newton's star running back, and they're easily the biggest and best offer thus far. Offers will pour in this season if Taylor Jr. has the kind of season many people believe he can have.

Release of Ubuntu: Description: Ubuntu 9.10 Release: 9.10 Linux 2.6.31-16-generic #53-Ubuntu SMP Tue Dec 8 04:02:15 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux 2. Version of package: apt-cache policy libvirt-bin libvirt-bin: Installed: 0.7.0-1ubuntu13.1 Candidate: 0.7.0-1ubuntu13.1 Version table: *** 0.7.0-1ubuntu13.1 0 500 http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com karmic-updates/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 0.7.0-1ubuntu13 0 500 http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com karmic/main Packages 3. What I expected to happen: Domains that are marked `autostart' should be running after the host was booted. 4. What happened instead: - auto starting domains mostly fails when booting the host OS (Ubuntu 9.10) - auto starting the same domains does work when using Ubuntu 8.04.3 LTS or Ubuntu 9.04 as host OS - auto starting the same domains does work when invoking `/etc/init.d/libvirt-bin restart' Libvirtd is running. There are symlinks in /etc/libvirt/qemu/autostart. Mostly none of my domains are running, however sometimes a domain succeeds and is booted (say 1 in 10 attempts a domain succeeds to boot during the host boot process). When, after booting the host, I run `/etc/init.d/libvirt-bin restart' all of my domains are coming up as expected. Autostart works for all domains while using Ubuntu 8.04.3 LTS or Ubuntu 9.04 as host OS. I'm using Ubuntu 9.04 and 9.10 guest OS'es. Some of them were created under Ubuntu 9.04 and some of them were created on Ubuntu 9.10. Most of the domains are installed on a LVM, but I also tried creating a file based virtual machine that is located on the boot device of the host OS. There is no difference between these domains, all of them are booted only very sporadicly while booting the host OS. All domains are using a bridge device that I specified myself, and using static IP addresses. I removed the default network created by libvirt, because I don't use it (however: before I deleted that, autostart didn't work either). The bridge device works properly, I can log in my virtual machines via ssh and I use the bridge as well to talk to the internal network. I tried setting the bug logging level in `/etc/libvirt/libvirt.conf' to 1, but I don't see anything in the files in `/var/log' that explains why my domains are not auto-starting during boot time of the host OS (or at least, nothing that I recognize). If there is anything else I could try, or any other information I should provide, please let me know. ** Affects: libvirt (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- autostart almost always fails on boot time host https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/495394 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to libvirt in ubuntu.

my page, which is hosted sharingly at Godaddy ?
(Please no comments about how Bluehost etc. are soo much
faster as that may change once everyone has migrated there).
I would like to add that the blog is not intensively used,
but still there are at least a half dozen plugins that one needs...
Are they actually running the WP setup on the same shared server,
does anyone know how likely this is ?
Thanks much - just a symptom of Google scaring the s..t

AQHA Breeder of Joe Hancock and Blue Valentine Lineage Horses
At VA Hancock Horses, a subsidiary of Cotton Patch Farm, LLC, we strive to breed top quality linebred Joe Hancock descendent horses with an emphasis on the bloodlines of Blue Valentine, Plenty Coup and Texas Blue Bonnet. Our horses emanate from breeding programs located in Arkansas, Colorado, Texas, and Wyoming, and were selected based on phenotype and genotype, with much, much attention to disposition.
We have attempted to concentrate and preserve the blood of Texas Blue Bonnet in our horses, and you will see him in most of mares in the fifth generation, and further back. Additionally, our stallion "Macho" carries 12% of Texas Blue Bonnet blood as well. Take a look at our horses, we hope you like them as much as we do! If you have any questions, would like to see more pictures, or need additional information, just let us know!
We'd love to hear from you!

If you're a low-carber, it is always a challenge to find a good recipe for pancakes, and there are many of them. This is my favorite recipe, using, of course, ground almonds (almond flour). They turn out very much like the American pancakes that I remember enjoying so much during my time living in the US, and can be served with any toppings you wish, just like regular pancakes. Blueberries, cream, lemon juice and a sprinkling of Splenda as a sweet topping is delicious, but they are also lovely when buttered and served with crispy bacon.

we are 7th in defense, 3rd in rushing defense, 9th in rushing offense..... but yes ranked 26th in overall offense, which is because were 30th in passing. so once again its are d, and gore showin out. I hope our passing can get better, yes some of it has to do with play calling, but also our qb.
PS. If our qb had and arm we wouldnt see 8 or 9 in the box which gore handled great, but he would be probably top 5.
this is not a shaun hill hate thread in no means. just mentioned it, and also our passing d is 20th. I think we have great db's, and our pass rush is improving, but they need to get better to help out those db's

To report our Debit Cards lost or stolen call 1-800-528-2273
It seems like every other month there is a data breach at a large retailer. It can be confusing and a bit scary for the average card user. If your information was part of a breach the first thing you should do is vigilantly watch your account and check for unauthorized or fraudulent charges. You should contact the bank immediately if unfamiliar charges appear on your account. Meanwhile, we are working behind the scenes to make sure you are protected. The large retailers contact banks with lists of possibly compromised cards. If your card number appears on one of these lists, the first thing we will do is order you a new card. As long as your card has not had any fraudulent charges we will keep it open until you receive the replacement card. In addition, we send you a letter to let you know that your card number has possibly been compromised and that a new card is on the way. At this point we will be happy to close your card upon your request. When your new card arrives you should call Oregon Community Bank and speak to one of our Personal Bankers. The Personal Banker will activate your card and set your PIN. Please be prepared to provide personally identifying information. In addition please see below for some suggestions on ways to help keep your personal and financial information safe.
Be aware of the location of your mobile devices (smartphones, tablets) at all times. Only log on financial websites when you have a secure, safe and trusted Internet connection. Never access your financial data on a public WIFI network.

Tips to Protect Yourself from ATM Skimmers
With confirmed cases of ATM skimming on the rise, it's more important than ever that consumers know how to protect themselves from this fraud technique. ATM skimmers are devices that criminals add to a legitimate ATM in order to obtain unsuspecting consumers' debit card information. The thieves then use this information to create fake debit cards out of non-activated gift cards or to make purchases online. The good news is there are ways to defend your account information from these illegal devices. Read on for tips on how to protect your money.
Be Vigilant When using any card reader - including ATMs and pay-at-the-pump stations - especially ones that you're unfamiliar with, watch for unusual marks, scratches, or loose pieces of equipment. Be on the lookout for colors that don't match the rest of the display. For example, if the entire machine is silver with blue accents, but the card slot is red and white, it could be an indicator that the slot is actually a skimming device. Criminals often target high-traffic ATMs for skimming, so use extra caution in tourist hot spots and when using ATMs located outdoors (out of sight locations make it easier to tamper with the device). For ATMs that you use frequently, watch carefully for any changes to the machine, such as new keypads or displays, as they may indicate that the ATM has been tampered with.
Protect Your PIN On some skimming devices, a tiny camera is used to record consumers' PIN numbers when they enter them into the ATM. The best way to prevent that from happening is to use your free hand to cover the keypad as you enter your PIN. Also, it's important to update your PIN number regularly. Contact your bank and they'll help you make this simply change to better protect your funds.
Monitor Your Accounts Finally, be sure that you regularly check your account balances and monitor the usage of your accounts. It can be helpful to sign up for alerts (such as a low balance SMS alert or a large dollar amount transaction alert) and watch for suspicious transactions or unusual withdrawals. If you're only checking your bank account once a month when you receive your statement, your money is at risk.
If you suspect an ATM has been tampered with, contact the ATM's owner immediately. If you think you have used a compromised ATM, contact your bank and ask what your options are. They may flag your account for closer monitoring until you can confirm that your data is safe, or they might help you change your PIN to increase the security on your debit card.
In our busy lives today convenience and speed are key. Checkbooks are cumbersome to carry and it takes extra time to write out a check and have it verified by the cashier. In addition, many people pay bills and make purchases electronically using the internet. As a result, consumers are writing fewer checks and using their debit cards more. At Oregon Community Bank and Trust we are happy to provide our customers with debit cards, but we want to remind our customers that a debit card is a privilege and as such there is some responsibility involved in owning and using a debit card.
In recent months there has been a substantial increase in debit card fraud. Much of the fraud has been caused by criminal activity unrelated to misuse of the card. However, there are incidences of debit card fraud that could have been avoided if proper security guidelines had been followed. Oregon Community Bank and Trust customers are not liable for debit card fraud as long as the loss of the card and/or fraudulent transactions are reported in a timely manner. Once a debit card transaction has been "authorized", which means the merchant has communicated with the ATM/debit card network and gotten an approval, (which is just a verification of a sufficient balance), it cannot be reversed except in rare circumstances. Unfortunately, the funds involved in fraudulent transactions are seldom recovered. It is up to the issuing financial institution to absorb the costs associated with debit card fraud. This leads to higher fees for all banking customers. Please keep in mind that if fraud occurs due to misuse of the card, the bank reserves the right to refuse replacement of the card.
In an effort to keep our customers' cards secure and bank fees to a minimum we ask that you follow the below guidelines when using your debit card:
If you are traveling out of the area please let us know. We can note travel dates and locations on your card record in order to avoid any disruption in your use of the card.

Guillermo Jones-Denis Lebedev is Heading To Moscow
By Ruslan Chikov
Promoters Don King and Vladimir Hryunov have reached an agreement to stage the cruiserweight battle between WBA champion Guillermo Jones (38-3-2, 30 KOs) and mandatory/interim-champ Dennis Lebedev (24-1, 18 KOs) in Moscow, Russia. The two promoters met in Panama City to discuss the cruiserweight battle and they were able to reach a deal on the location. As part of the deal, Hyrunov agreed to allow Jones to make an optional defense against Andre Taylor (21-2-2, 8 KOs) on October 27 in Venezuela.
"I can confirm that negotiations with Don King to hold the Lebedev-Jones fight were successful. We have agreed that this fight will take place. As planned earlier, the chosen venue will be in Moscow. As for the exact date and the actual arena where the fight will take place, those details will be announced in the near future," said Hryunov.

"Baby announcements turned out amazing! The quality of the images and paper looked great online but even better in person which is often not the case. The service was so easy to use and create online - so many layouts to choose from and I couldn't believe they even had some specificity for twins! They arrived quickly and I was very happy with the entire process!"
"What a beautiful announcement! I received so many compliments on it. The card quality was nice and substantial without being bulky, the printing was true to what I expected in the shades of what was shown online, and even the photos I provided printed better than I expected. To top it off, it shipped so quickly, I couldn't believe how fast I got them! I would definitely recommend this product."
"The card design was perfect. Everyone we sent cards to raved about it. The paper quality was great and the price was fantastic."
"I went through multiple companies before deciding on this card design for our holiday card/birth announcement. It ended up being less expensive than the other options I looked into and I liked the overall design better as well. The service was great as well- our cards arrived a little earlier than expected and in perfect condition due to great packaging. Overall, great product and service!"
"I used this as the birth announcement for my 2nd daughter... It was perfect!! My older daughter loved that she was officially making the announcement of her little sister's birth. Beautiful announcement, great quality! I received many compliments on this announcement."

The popular seaside town of Wilderness is located along the so called scenic 'Garden Route' of the Western Cape region of South Africa. The town's main claim to fame is that it was the home of former South African President, P.W. Botha, before he died in 2006. Visitors looking to spend their holidays in Wilderness will find that there is a good choice of self catering rental accommodation available in the town and the surrounding countryside. There are apartments and houses within the town, or those on a more generous budget may wish to rent a more luxurious villa, affording spectacular views of the Indian Ocean.
Travellers looking to spend their holidays in Wilderness will discover that the town boasts all the seaside attractions you would expect. These attractions include a great beach, offering visitors a wide choice of watersports. It is also the perfect place to relax and top up their tan, whilst soaking up the warm African sun. Wilderness is the perfect base from where visitors can hire a car to explore the Garden Route. The Garden Route is a scenic coastal highway, named after the many lakes and lagoons along its route, which are surrounded by lush and ecologically diverse vegetation. There are also a number of nature and marine reserves to be found along the Garden Route. These reserves are the natural habitats for a diverse collection of marine life, including dolphins and seals.
Most visitors looking to spend their holidays in Wilderness will travel to the nearby city of George. The largest city along the Garden Route, George offers tourists a number of interesting historic landmarks and tourist attractions. These include the Slave Tree, which is a national monument.

The Federation of Mother and Child Homes and Shelters
The Federation of Mother and Child Homes and Shelters, founded in 1945, is a nationwide child welfare organisation that helps children and families in difficult and insecure situations and prevents domestic violence.
The Federation is the central organisation for its 30 member associations. The member associations across Finland maintain 10 mother and child homes, six homes focusing on treatment of drug and alcohol-related problems and 12 shelters. Some of the associations focus on community care services. More than 10,000 people, approximately 4,000 of whom are children, use the associations' services every year.
As society has changed, the Federation has concentrated more on providing support for the family as a whole. It is particularly concerned with helping families in need and with the prevention of problems.
The work of the Federation is financed out of funds awarded by the Slot Machine Association (RAY), profits made by the Children's Day Foundation maintaining the Linnanmäki amusement park, and funds raised by the Federation itself. The activities are financed out of charges for the use of the centre.
"Every child has to be saved for life"
The Federation of Mother and Child Homes and Shelters is the voice and advocate of children and families in difficult circumstances in our society. We stand by families and are not afraid to tackle problems. In the days when single mothers needed support and shelter, a way out from disgrace, we founded homes for them. When domestic violence came out from homes and turned from a private problem into a social one, we created networks to help both victims and offenders. We do not merely talk about problems, we take action to change the lives of our customers as well as the society.
The current social development challenges us to build a more equal society, where a sense of community is enchanced and the weakest members are looked after. A total of 30 member associations across Finland provide professional help and voluntary support for families in need. The associations offer opportunities for people to be empowered by experiences of inclusion and equality.
Every child has the right to be safe and have a good life. Help offered at the right time prevents social exclusion and provides an opportunity for a fresh start.
Homes and shelters
The mother and child homes are one form of child welfare aimed at supporting parenthood and at helping families to find their own resources and strengths. A mother may enter the home while pregnant or with her baby, and the father can also stay there if necessary. Care is then planned according to the family's needs. The home seeks to foster good child–parent bonding and to teach parents step by step how to cope with life and looking after their baby.
The shelters are service centres in which persons either suffering from or threatened with family violence can find help in overcoming a crisis. All the parties involved in the family violence situation receive attention, the primary objective being to safeguard the interests of the child at all times.
The shelters are on duty round the clock. The Federation of Mother and Child Homes and Shelters opened its first shelter in 1979.
Community Care
The community care services include
- Alvari family welfare in the client's home
- A Baby blues service for exhausted families with babies
- Counselling and groups for abusive men
- Family groups
- An sos and counselling telephone service
- Discussion and action groups
- Kiddies' clubs
- child contact centre
- Housing services
An agreement is made with the client's local welfare of.ce on the charges for the mother and child homes and shelters. The community care services are financed partly by the Slot Machine Association.

It's a gorgeous jacket, warm, yet not too heavy; the medium fits me perfectly (5'7", 132 lbs with long arms). Only critique is that the buttons for the hood are hard to use and the zipper sticks a bit. For the price, it is an amazing jacket.
Love the jacket except it sheds too much. There's fake fur everywhere. Faux fur shouldn't shed.
You need to carry a lint brush with you as the fur sheds like crazy. The zipper was difficult to get done up as well
It fit fine but the fur sheds so much it drives me crazy also it takes like 5 minutes just to get it to zip
Warm and cute and simple style
Love the jacket...only minor problem is the collar which sheds a great deal. However, this is easily fixable with a sticky roller.

However, I've noticed that the word "Tweet" now appears at the start of my Post excerpts when I have the NextGEN Facebook Open Graph+ activated on my blog.
This happens only with posts where no manual excerpt has been set.
Hope there is a fix for that.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
She is also claiming to show photos of ADULT breeding dogs and clearly these photos are ALL of puppies. ANY vet or breeder can show you the eye set alone on these dogs proves the photos to be of dogs between the ages of 2 to 6 months of age. She is claiming them as adults to show size, when they are still clearly growing puppies and will in most cases double in size.
She also boosts that she sells to people such as Paris Hilton, and Jessica Simpson.
She may have given these dogs to these people to promote her SHAM operation, but did not sell these dogs. Tinkerbell, Paris Hiltons dog is not a Teacup either it is a standard 3 lb Chihuahua.
The follow is what all breed clubs have stated on selling dogs deemed as TEACUP.
There are NO Teacup Chihuahuas!!!
The Chihuahua is a Chihuahua
The Official breed standards of all registries lists the Chihuahua as a small dog that comes in two varieties or coat types.
The difference in coat type (the Long Coat and the Smooth Coat)is the only official description used to identify a difference within this breed.
Our standards do not categorize the Chihuahua by size.
For the purpose of showing and record keeping,the registries include the Chihuahua in the Toy Group.
Therefore, irrespective of their weight or physical stature ALL Chihuahuas registered with any registry are considered to be a toy breed of dog.
As with all living things, there will be size variance between individual dogs within this breed.Look within the human family - brothers and sisters will differ in height and in weight, as well as other physical attributes. They are described as humans, male or female,and there is seldom if ever a need to break the description down further.
The same holds true in regard to the Chihuahua; they are Chihuahuas - Long Coat / Smooth Coat!
Unfortunately, the additional adjectives used to describe the size differences and physical appearances are many and have been misused for so long they now seem legitimate.
Teacup, Pocket Size, Tiny Toy, Miniature, Rare or Standard - are just a few of the many tags and labels that have been attached to this breed over the years.
The Chihuahuas of Michigan Club is concerned that these terms may be used to entice prospective buyers into thinking that puppies described in this way are of greater monetary value. They are NOT and the use of these terms is incorrect and misleading.Occasionally, within a litter, there may be a puppy that is unusually small.
That puppy is a small Chihuahua and any other breakdown in description is not correct.
To attach any of these additional labels to a particular puppy is to misrepresent that Chihuahua as something that is rare and causes a great deal of confusion among those new fanciers who are looking for a Chihuahua.
The Chihuahuas of Michigan Club does not endorse nor condone the use of any of these terms and would caution the perspective puppy buyer not to be misled by them.
We recognize that many Chihuahua fanciers do want the very small puppy.
While they are adorable,the buyer should be cautioned as to the extra care that may be required with regard to their general health and well-being.Also be advised of a very high Mortality rates on these so-called "TEACUPS"
PAYING $1,000.00 OR MORE FOR A SO-CALLED RARE CHIHUAHUA DOES NOT MAKE YOU or YOUR DOG SPECIAL.
Please before buying any Chihuahua read about the health issues of dogs bred down to be under 2 lbs and called TEACUP.
As a rescue we have taken many animals from people who thought they bought a TEACUP and it ended up 9 lbs or it was a very small CHihuahua and had such health issues the owners could not afford treatment.
Calls also come in 5 or more a month from people crying they just lost a 3 yr old Tiny Chihuahu to heart and liver conditions.
A Chihuahuas life span if properly bred and cared for is 20 yrs.

Steven Caulker headed Cardiff's winner to give his side a historic victory against Welsh rivals Swansea at a saturated Cardiff City Stadium.
Caulker settled a desperately tight south Wales derby in which neither side really assumed control when he rose to power a header into the corner of the net from Craig Bellamy's corner-kick.
It was perhaps apt that a former Swansea player scored the winning goal in the first fixture between the Welsh sides in the top flight.
Defeat was harsh on Michael Laudrup's side, whose miserable day was compounded by the loss of Michu to injury midway through the second period and a red card for goalkeeper Michel Vorm in stoppage time after he raced from his line to bludgeon substitute Fraizer Campbell to the deck with the visitors pressing for an equaliser.
Angel Rangel replaced Vorm in goal for the closing minutes, but the damage had been done. Caulker opted not to celebrate the winning goal against his old club, but questions will be asked of Jonjo Shelvey who should have blocked Caulker's header but mysteriously left his left-hand post as the ball crept beyond him.
Cardiff move a point above Swansea in the table into 12th spot with their local foes in 13th place after their 10 games.
3' - MICHU CHANCE: Chance for Michu on the turn, but he turns to wallop a volley well over the bar. That has to go down as a miss by the Spanish forward.
9' - MARSHALL SAVE: Michu on the run for Swansea. Gets the shot away from distance, but Marshall well positioned to make the stop diving slightly to his right.
53' - PENALTY CLAIM: Bellamy heads back across the visiting goal. Appeals for a penalty against Williams after he connected with Cowie. Probably the right call by the match official.
62' - CAULKER GOAL: Caulker arrives to nod into the net from the Bellamy corner. Cardiff have the lead. Flores outjumped. Poor defending really.
87' - DE GUZMAN FREE-KICK: Marshall doing just enough to get the ball behind a post. Bounced in front of him, but he got his body in the way of the De Guzman effort.
88' - MARSHALL SAVE: Corner comes to nothing, but Pozuelo's stinging hit from 18 yards is swatted away by the dive of Marshall.
90+1' - VORM RED CARD: Swansea down to 10 men. Vorm with a late challenge on Campbell. Nowhere near the ball as he sped from his goal. Had to go.
The last three meetings between the sides have now ended 1-0, but this is the only of those three in which the home team has won.
Swansea have now lost five of the six PL away games they've played with Mike Dean in charge, winning once.
Cardiff's first win since 28th September, after two losses and a draw, moves them above Swansea in the Premier League table.
Cardiff win the first ever top flight South Wales derby.
TALKING POINT: Where does the win leave Cardiff manager Malky Mackay? Various media reports before this match spoke of a tense relationship between Mackay and club owner Vincent Tan. It has been suggested the pair don't speak with Tan recently replacing Mackay's friend and head of recruitment Iain Moody with the 23-year-old Alisher Apsalyamov. This win is certainly better for Mackay than Tan, but who knows how long he is destined to continue working under such an unpredictable owner.
MAN OF THE MATCH: Steven Caulker (Cardiff): Impressive performance at the heart of the home area. Vital contribution with his historic winner.
Cardiff: Marshall 7, Taylor 6, Caulker 8, Turner 7, Whittingham 6, Medel 6, Odemwingie 6, Mutch 6, Cowie 6, Theophile-Catherine 6, Bellamy 7..subs: Campbell 7, Kim 7, Gunnarsson 7

AbstractSince their introduction in 2001, SiNW-based sensor devices have attracted considerable interest as a general platform for ultra-sensitive, electrical detection of biological and chemical species. Most studies focus on detecting, sensing and monitoring analytes in aqueous solution, but the number of studies on sensing gases and vapors using SiNW-based devices is increasing. This review gives an overview of selected research papers related to the application of electrical SiNW-based devices in the gas phase that have been reported over the past 10 years. Special attention is given to surface modification strategies and the sensing principles involved. In addition, future steps and technological challenges in this field are addressed.

Our home has nice carpentry work that I didn't want to be hidden with siding. We did alot of research and were really led to believe this was a long lasting, viable product with a Lifetime "Transferrable" Warranty. (I would also mention that the Better Buisiness Bureau is a farce. I've been missled by them on a number of occasions).
The paint was applied in July of 2006. The cast wasd $7,300.
We have a medium blue siding with white trim. On October 2008,
2 years later, I was sending my first certified letter requesting warranty due to excessive fading and deterioration of the paint. My concern at the time was that they had applied the paint in the heat of the day while the sun was shining directly on the side being painted. One side of the house and an enclosed porch area still looked ok, but rest of the house was fading really bad. It was embarassing as a painter lives next door, and a professional carpenter several houses down, and they both noticed how bad it looked after 2 years. There were other application issues I won't go into, such as doubt as to how many coats were actually applied (underneath many boards only had white primer), damage to property from cleaning out the sprayers (they cleaned out sprayers on my newly re-finished fence) , ect....
To their credit, they sent an "Expert Applicator" out to recoat the most faded areas. They painted sections. After another 2 years, same results along with the other other areas not re-coated. What an awefull mess!!! . My house looked absolutely horrible in a shorter length of time than normal latex paint. I promise I am not exagerating at all! I also was seeing the bubbling that others have mentioned.
I sent another certified letter. They came out and informed me of new ownership, problem was with application, and they would repaint. They were slow at time, and said would be out within 2-3 weeks.
I called after 1 month and he acted like he had forgotten. He assured me they would be out within couple weeks. Another 2 months and I didn't hear anything. I have since just licked my wounds, and started the process of painting myself with BM Aura paint. It looks soooo much better. I had painted a couple areas 4 years ago and they still looked much better than the Liquid Ceramics.
This is a rip off product. I think the owners really believed they had a good product to start with,
and were sincere, but the product does absolutely not perform as advertised. They can conveneintly attribute all problems to the applicators, vrs the product, and you end up with no realistic course of action. The applicators are here today and gone tomorrow. Bad , Bad, Bad, deal.
The latest rep in the Carolinas is Mark Tkac out of Raleigh NC. I haven't heard a word about our warranty, paint samples, ect. Beware!!! Choose another route if you want to eliminate 3-4 year painting. Go with Hardie Plank, Vinyl, or something, but deffinitely not this product. What an absolutely aweful dissappointment!

product. I am not responsible for any past warranties since I have not nor, has the new company worked on the job. Liquid
Ceramic in the past used Sub-Contractors that were inadequate to apply the product. The product is a good solid product if
applied correctly. I am unfortunate to see that a past customer had to deal with the old Liquid Ceramic. But I am confident
that this product is a solid alternative to painting a house. And will last for years to come. I ask you kindly to not
to condone me our our product, we are not the one who hired inadequate workers nor did we apply it.... I would appreciate it if
you would attract your statement...

Hard disk encryption with DM-Crypt, LUKS, and cryptsetup
If you're serious about keeping secrets, try hard disk encryption with DM-Crypt and LUKS.
File encryption is a popular means for ensuring the security and privacy of file-based data. An intruder who breaks through your firewall won't be able to read your private files if they are encrypted, right? Actually, selective file encryption provided by utilities such as GnuPG covers some of your tracks, but it may not cover all of them. An intruder can still learn about your system – and maybe even reconstruct some of your file data – by snooping through secret files, temporary files, configuration data, and command histories. The /var/spool/cups directory, for example, could yield a treasure trove of data about files you might have printed in the past, and tools such as the Gnome Thumbnail Factory could be storing an unencrypted thumbnail of your encrypted images.

Transformers G1 Ultra Magnus
Got my hands on this handsome fellow back in May at Anime Boston. He was in great condition, and a great price. so there was no way I could pass up getting him. Anyways in the pictures you will notice once of his smaller smoke stacks is missing. That's the sad result of my kitten taking a liking to poor ol' Magnus, and Magnus having the unfortunate luck of meeting the floor one day when Madeline (my black little terror), got too curious. Needless to say I am looking for a way to make him a replacement, cause the little black terror ATE the piece that broke off.
Sob story aside I'll get on with the review.
Out of the 3 G1 toys I own (the other two being Optimus Prime and Megatron) Ultra Magnus is by far the best constructed, and the best appearance wise. The plastic making up his "power suit" I believe it's called, is of excellent quality, and I don't expect that to be breaking anytime soon...Unlike his fragile smokestacks on his main body, but we'll get to that in a minute.
As to be expected of any G1 toy he's very easy to transform, both his main body, and power suit (I'm just calling it that from now on).
Minus his armor he is a white repaint of G1 Optimus (who for the record can be put into Ultra Magnus's armor...and actually looks better in it...)
Personally the red optics have always bothered me, makes him look like a Decepticon (obviously). Which makes no sense because this is Ultra Magnus, and not Nemesis...but I guess no one thought about that back then...Oh well...
So yes, you can now clearly see his missing smokestack (again thank you Madeline, you little monster).
In general he was hard to get good shots of because of the type of plastic/metal used on him.
Both bot symbols on him are stickers, as was the custom back in the 80's. Thankfully my Magnus has all his stickers properly applied...unlike my poor Optimus...
His alt mode without his armor is, like G1 Optimus Prime, a semi-cab. The nub on his trailer bed looks like it would plug into something, but it actually doesn't, it's just there to catch on the lip of his trailer. This confused the hell out of me for an hour before I finally sat on the floor and tried to figure out how to make him and his trailer roll together. Once I figured it out I smacked myself because of how simplistic it was...
With his armor he's a...I actually have no clue what exactly they were getting at with this toy...Car carrier? Mobile battle station? A bit of both? Personally I would write him off as both, seeing as in G1 we have seen him transporting his fellow Autobots into battle. As for the mobile battle station...well I mean just LOOK at those missile launchers!
As far as articulation and such goes Magnus (with his armor) is a brick, and the only mobility is in his arms, and that's pretty limited.
Overall Ultra Magnus was a great find for me (being a big fan of the guy). He looks great on my shelf, really holds a nice presence there. If you like G1 toys I'd recommend picking him up, cause other than being a BRICK he's one of the best G1 toys I've had the chance to handle.
Well, there goes my first review here, hope it was decent.
