Ondra Nevelik, or to be more correct, Ondrej Nevělík has repeated Toni Lamprecht's wrestling fiesta The Dagger, 8B+, at Cresciano.
Ondrej is a 22-year-old from Valtice in the Czech Republic. He is coached by Helena Lipenska, who seems to be doing a good job.
"If I am ever about to climb an 8B+ boulder, it will be The Dagger" I told myself when I was in Ticino for the first time almost four years ago.
This year, while planning the season, I finally felt like it is the right time to give it a try. Luckily I was right! The boulder itself suits my style quite well as I love roof climbing, reachy, core-body tension requiring moves.
The hardest part of completing this boulder was actually finding the right beta as I am taller than Daniel Woods/Sean McColl (who sent it during my first day in Cresciano) and I wasn't able to put my left foot correctly in one of the first moves. In the end I found out "feet-first" is the best way for me. However I was not able to do one long move to a crimp and was getting really desperate as I had been trying the problem for 2 days, had only 2 more days left and still wasn't even able to do all the moves. With a bit of luck on my last try before giving up on Dagger this trip I found a perfect position for a toe hook on the left edge that made the move much much easier and then I sent the whole problem in just 3 tries the next day! :)

If you are a defensive tackle in the class of 2013 then the chances are that you have heard from the Missouri Tigers this spring.
The Tigers have focused on that position like a laser for this years recruiting class, and we are seeing particular focus in the states of Florida and Georgia.
ShowMeMizzou.com caught up with another Tiger offer that fits the bill in Hamilton (GA) Harris County DT James Ellison 6'2" 290 4.8 forty, who also goes by Jay.
"Missouri offered me this spring back in April,"said Ellison. I talked with Coach Grinch and Coach Kuligowski and we stay in touch. I'm very interested in Missouri. It's a great place to go to school from what I hear. It's got good academics and football. They just joined the SEC and it doesn't get better then that. They are a school I am definitely considering."
The 3-star defensive tackle, who wants to major in accounting, also has offers from Auburn, Mississippi State, Georgia Tech,North Carolina, Purdue, Pittsburgh, Michigan and Syracuse.
Ellison isn't in a hurry and claims he has no frontrunners at the moment.
"Right now I'm not sure what I want to do or about any school. I have taken an unofficial to Georgia Tech and it went well. I will be going to camp at Clemson and Alabama, and that would be huge if they offered, but I am wide open still and will narrow it down before the start of my season. Then I will take my officials and probably decide after that,"said Ellison.
The Georgia standout is being recruited as a 3-technique by most schools.
He self reported a 33" vertical along with lift maxes of 365lbs in the bench, 605lbs in the squat, and 355lbs power clean.
Jay Ellison also finished 2nd in the state wrestling championships at heavyweight, and threw in the shot and discus in track this past spring.

The best arguments for telework in the federal government will get nowhere unless they take into account the best arguments against it.
And by most accounts, the most visible telework opponents typically are federal managers. Federal employees often tell stories of managers who severely limit or outright ban the option of working from home, even in the face of an agency's pro-telework policy.
So what gives? Reading the comments on recent telework stories at FCW.com, one might assume that some bosses simply lack the management chops — and the self-confidence — that are needed to oversee a distributed workforce. And without a doubt, that often might be the case.
But federal managers commenting on a recent blog post ("Why do federal managers oppose telework?") tell another story. As they see it, telework often is not in the best interest of the agency — or, for that matter, of the employees. Although a nice lifestyle perk, telework can diminish the ability of employees to meet the demands of their jobs, managers say.
However, it's worth noting that in many cases federal managers are not opposed to telework as a rule. But they have serious reservations that they want to see addressed before they are willing to let employees commute via the Internet.
Here is a summary of the four most compelling arguments that managers have to offer. (Also be sure to read the recent column in Federal Computer Week by Patricia Niehaus, "Making telework happen: It's up to managers now.") Some comments have been edited for style, length or clarity.
1. Technical disconnects
The basic concern is simple: Home offices often do not measure up to the demands of the job, managers say.
Someone who stays home occasionally to wrap up a report might need nothing more than a computer with basic office software and Internet connectivity, but that's not enough for regular teleworkers.
They need government-provided portable devices, security software, management software and other tools to help them work seamlessly with their supervisor and colleagues. Some agencies might support telework in principle but not in their budgets.
Security is also tricky. Technically, virtual private networks make it possible for employees to link in from anywhere, but security often takes a big bite out of network performance, as one Agriculture Department employee found out.
"Security on the network is so heavy that it takes a long period of time to get the work done and not cause problems with the applications we work with," the reader wrote.
Another concern is the physical security of the home office, especially given past incidents in which laptop computers containing sensitive data were stolen from homes.
"So it's not as simple as saying, 'You can work at home today,'" writes a reader named John. "The agency must evaluate risk versus the cost."
2. Disconnected employees
Ideally, employees who work at home should not be "out of sight, out of mind," but often that is how it works, according to managers and employees.
Sure, co-workers can use e-mail, instant messaging and chat rooms to keep in touch throughout the day. But inevitably conversations of consequence spring up in the hallway, the kitchen or even the parking garage that can't be replicated online.
This is a problem especially in the event of an unanticipated, quick-turnaround assignment, when people are scrambling to respond. Teleworkers, once they get patched in, might have to spend a long time playing catch-up.
To make matters worse, some managers have had bad experiences with employees who are online but out of touch.
"I have attempted to reach federal employees at [the Office of Personnel Management] who supposedly 'work from home' and guess what? In their 'work from home days,' they do not respond at all," one reader wrote.
Telework also puts an added burden on people who work in the office, especially supervisors who often end up filling in for employees at impromptu face-to-face meetings with outside clients or political appointees.
"Try patching in teleworking employees to participate — without sufficient support staff to do this — and you [understand] one of the many reasons why no one wants to be in middle management anymore," another reader wrote.
3. Management matters
In theory, a manager should be able to work with employees equally well whether they are in the office, on the road or at home. As far as managing performance goes — that is, defining goals and measuring outcomes — that might be true. But that is only half the story, some managers say.
Between performance reviews, a manager should be checking in with employees constantly, making sure they know their priorities and how to achieve them. How much of that is lost when an employee is out of the office on a regular basis?
"Telephones and e-mail are good for communicating facts, but nuances are lost," says one manager. "If I can't see someone's face and body language, and they can't see mine, we are missing out on 60 to 80 percent of the communication channel."
"I may not like it," the reader adds, "but it's often the things that are left unsaid or unwritten that represent the most critical part of a message."
A manager also needs to think about how his or her team is perceived by the powers-that-be, especially when it comes to dealing with a crisis. Unfair, but true, says one reader.
"If the rest of the federal government is anything like the Defense Department, they reward the folks who come up with heroic solutions to crises, but they don't reward the team that does its job and prevents crises from ever happening," one reader wrote. "The former can't telecommute because their processes aren't well defined; the latter can telecommute but would then go from low visibility to complete invisibility. What manager can afford to run an invisible team?"
4. Bad apple? Bad news.
When it comes to the telework debate, no issue is so divisive as the question of trust. Many readers say most managers who dislike telework simply do not trust their employees to work without someone looking over their shoulders. Managers say that is only partially true.
They would be willing to trust some of their employees to telework, but not others. They get the willies just thinking about some employees being allowed to work without supervision.
"We've seen countless comments by managers who observe this new breed of 'tech-savvy' people who spend too much time at work updating their personal Web sites or chatting with friends outside the office," wrote Michael D. Long. "Taking them off-site will certainly lead to abuses that will at some point generate undesirable media attention and public reactions."
Some people argue that managers can deal with the bad apples, whether they are working in the office or at home, by developing a performance management system that is based on meaningful and measurable metrics.
But it's no secret that the process for dealing with underperforming feds leaves something to be desired and that many managers would rather just avoid it. As they see it, their best available option is to keep those employees on a short leash.
Unfortunately, in some cases, everyone ends up on a short leash because the manager does not have the authority to set telework policy on a case-by-case basis.
Some employees "do not have the desire to excel. If I provide telecommunicating privileges to the one who does, then I have to do the same for that employee who is not as dedicated," wrote Scott Glass. "We are forced to be 'fair' and treat all employees the same."

In the latest issue: Looking back on three decades of big stories in federal IT.
Get the full issue
Since 1986, FCW has covered it all -- the major contracts, the disruptive technologies, the picayune scandals and the many, many people who make federal IT function. Here's a look back at six of the most significant stories.
A short-term funding bill is expected by Sept. 30 to keep the federal government operating through early December, but after that the options get more complicated.
The DOD is opening a new Defense Innovation Unit Experimental office in Austin, Texas, while Congress debates legislation that could defund DIUx.
A House panel approved a new IT modernization bill that appears poised to pass, but key funding questions are left for appropriators.
The Army's cyber director said cyber, electronic warfare and information operations must be integrated into warfighters' doctrine and training.
FCW honors 30 early-career leaders in federal IT.
Interestingly, at the federal agency where I work, telework seems to be the privilege of the managers and not the staff employees. And, when our managers telework once or twice a week regularly, they are the ones that can not be reached either by telephone or email! We have a telework policy and it states that "Participation in a telework arrangement is subject to supervisory approval." So, what is happening at the agency (2nd largest fed agency) where I work is that the approving authority is the supervisor who approves of their own telework days while disapproving telework for their staff employees. Now, is this irony or what?
Many managers don't trust their employees-- bottom line. That is one significant reason for resistence. Another is that employee disconnection is very real for teleworkers. Some workers in my dept are capable of working from home due to unlinked work, while others are involved in quick and substantive information exchanges which necessitates face to face communication. A few supervisors are old schoolers who refuse to look at alternative work methods because it's not what they did. Cost savings are significant. The federal transportation benefit savings run into the billions annually. Retention is higher, reduced commuting time, etc are other benefits. In the NVA, a decrease in traffic congestion would be pleasing. Only some positions are teleworkable. Morale for those unable to telework may increase after viewing fellow coworkers work from home. I'll allow my subordinates to telework to evaluate the effectiveness in the short-term. I believe it's a bigger positive than negative.
Any large program or project involves people working from multiple locations. Using "inability to have face to face meetings" as an argument against telework in such situations doesn't seem relevant. So specifying the type of working situation where telework is or is not relevant seems necessary.
Seems to me video conferencing could address the first three objections in this article.
And the fourth one is weak -- "some managers would rather just avoid" dealing with poor performers?
Does that really meet the test of a valid objection?
I think that we all have to agree that not every position lends itself to telework, but it seems to me that "almost" all of the reasons that these "managers" gave represent short-comings with the managers abilities to manage

Reassembling the cast of The Mysterious Matter of I.M. Fine, Stanley delivers another humorous and thoroughly enjoyable mystery, this time set at a too-good-to-be-true school. When Franny Sharp's younger sister, Zoë, is recruited to attend Allbright Academy, a prestigious boarding school founded by two famous scientists, she refuses to attend unless her twin, J.D., and Franny can come, too. That's how Franny, who believes herself solidly ordinary, finds herself starting eighth grade surrounded by the best-looking group of overachievers she's ever seen. Intimidated at first by her award-winning classmates, she quickly bonds with fellow new students Cal (short for Calpurnia) and Brooklyn, and starts to flourish. In fact, Franny's never felt smarter, looked better or worked harder in her life. But when Cal falls sick and has to leave the campus for a few weeks, she stumbles upon an unsettling discovery. Just what do the ever-present Allbright brownies have to do with making Allbright students so painfully perfect in every way? With sympathetic Franny as narrator and a time-tested premise, Stanley hooks readers from the start, and she keeps them going with characters whose names hint at their true natures (besides the Salinger-inspired Sharp kids, the players include Martha Evergood, Prescott Bottomy and Dr. Horace Gallow). And although some answers to the mystery are obvious early on, the conclusion does not disappoint. Ages 8-12. (Jan.)Copyright 2007 Reed Business Information

Franny is thrilled when she's accepted by the Allbright Academy, an elite private boarding school designed to train leaders. But she knows she's not as smart as the other kids there—or as beautiful, accomplished, confident, or mature. The fact is, the Allbright students—from their shining teeth and flawless complexions to their sky-high test scores and long lists of honors—are absolutely perfect. Then the Allbright magic begins to rub off on Franny, too. The question is: Is this a good thing?
Can Franny and her friends Cal, Brooklyn, and Prescott un-ravel the Allbright Academy's secret, or will they, too, succumb to its eerie perfection?
Editorial Reviews
Gr 5-7- Frannie knows that she got into Allbright Academy only because the directors were desperate to recruit her brilliant younger sister, who refused to come without her. The prestigious boarding school generally admits only handpicked students, the "leaders of tomorrow," as the headmaster constantly reinforces. Although the campus is beautiful, with state-of-the-art facilities, a challenging program, and excellent food-including the school's traditional brownies-Frannie finds the place unnervingly perfect. Outside influences and contact are discouraged and there is a disturbing emphasis on group conformity. The kids are unfailingly polite, neat, and focused, and, most of all, compliant. When Frannie realizes that she is slipping into the Allbright "persona" herself, she begins to suspect that there is something sinister going on. She discovers that the brownies contain a behavior-modification drug, calculated to make the students more "receptive" to indoctrination. For decades, the school has been programming them for important positions in business, government, and the media. Not only are current students being "moderated," but key graduates are invited back periodically for a refresher course of drugs and direction. Can Frannie and her friends fight back and expose the school's plot to control the future of the country in time? This suspenseful story features an all-too-plausible conflict between authoritarian control and personal freedom. The action is brisk and exciting, with authentic and often insightful dialogue. There is also a strong underlying theme of individual courage and self-determination.-Elaine E. Knight, Lincoln Elementary Schools, ILCopyright 2008Reed Business Information.

Read an Excerpt
The Mysterious Case of the Allbright Academy
Chapter One
So there we were, all five of us, barreling down the road in the pitch-black dark, early on a Saturday morning. We were headed for the Allbright Academy, a school we'd never heard of till the week before, but which we hoped to attend in the fall.
Sounds crazy, I know. Looking back, I can't believe we ever thought it was a good idea. I guess we were just so dazzled by Martha Evergood's phone call that we simply lost our wits. (And yeah, I do mean that Martha Evergood, the first woman to be secretary of state and a genuine hero to every female on the planet.)
Dr. Evergood had been the guest speaker at a junior leadership conference that my sister, Zoë, went to in D.C. At the closing banquet they were seated at the same table, and Zoë proceeded to charm the socks off her, something Zoë has a natural tendency to do. Now, Dr. Evergood happened to be on the board of directors of the Allbright Academy, and Zoë struck her as a perfect candidate for the school. So Dr. Evergood picked up the phone and called their admissions people, urging them to get Zoë out there for testing ASAP.
The very next day the director of admissions called Mom and invited Zoë to apply. Apparently the invitation alone was a big deal. Allbright didn't let just anybody come out there to take the test—only very special students. And Mom shouldn't worry about expenses, either, he said. If Zoë was accepted, she would be on full scholarship!
Mom was really blown away by this, and clearly didn't know quite how to respond to it. Her end of theconversation started out kind of like this:
"Oh . . . um . . . well . . . really? . . . Gosh!" Finally she got herself together and explained to the admissions guy that Zoë had a twin brother, J. D., as well as a big sister, Franny. (That's me, of course.) Mom doubted that Zoë would be willing to go to Allbright if she had to go without us.
No problem, the man said. We could come take the test too.
We were still deep in amazement over that call when the phone rang again. This time it was Dr. Evergood, herself, in person. Mom actually held her hand over her heart as she stood there listening to this very famous lady talk about how remarkable Zoë was and how Mom and Dad really ought to send her to this very special school. Allbright, Dr. Evergood explained, had been founded by two Nobel Prizewinning scientists for the specific purpose of developing the gifts of kids like Zoë, kids with special talents who would grow up to be our country's next generation of leaders.
"Please consider Allbright very seriously," Dr. Evergood said. "I think your daughter has enormous potential. She deserves the best education possible."
Really, after a sales pitch like that, how could we say no?
Now, I don't want you to think, from what I said earlier about losing our wits, that my family is totally nuts. I mean, yes, we were completely starstruck over Dr. Evergood's call. And, yes, we did make what seems like a pretty impulsive decision. But we did give the matter some thought first.
Mom and Dad said we were awfully young to be going to boarding school, especially the twins. And we had always been public school people. But this was clearly an amazing, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and though they would miss us terribly, we could go if we wanted to. It was up to us.
We weren't sure we were ready to go to boarding school either. And besides, we had moved a lot over the years, because of Dad's job, and we were sick of changing schools. Under normal circumstances, we would have turned down Allbright's offer on the spot, no matter how many Nobel Prize winners had founded it.
But these weren't normal circumstances. It was almost as though fate had arranged for us to go to the Allbright Academy so we could discover the things that we did, and save the country from disaster. But I'm getting ahead of myself.
Let me just say that, only the week before, we had learned that the twins' school would be closing the following year, to be remodeled and turned into a high school. Zoë and J. D. would be going someplace new anyway. Then, the year after that, they would be moving a second time, to middle school. At least at Allbright they could stay in one place till it was time for them to go to college.
My situation was different. H. L. Mencken Middle School was brand-new and I would be staying there for three years. Unfortunately, my best (and I have to be honest here—only) friend, Beamer, would not. He was transferring to a special magnet program for the arts. So in a way, I'd be starting over again too, at least socially.
So those turned out to be the tipping points. Since Allbright was supposed to be so fantastic, why not start over there? Or at the very least, we ought to drive out to the school and check the place out.
The campus of the Allbright Academy is in a quiet, woodsy corner of Maryland, a two-and-a-half-hour drive from our house in Baltimore. Since we were supposed to be there by eight, we'd left home around five fifteen. That meant that we'd had to set our alarms for four fifteen, to allow time for all of us to shower, pack, and eat breakfast. Naturally, the twins and I went back to sleep as soon as we hit the road. We pulled into the visitors' parking lot a little before eight. I had been dreaming that my above-mentioned friend, Beamer, was trapped on the roof of a school, which in my dream I knew to be the Allbright Academy, and which was on fire. I was frantic to save him. Then the engine stopped and I woke up.The Mysterious Case of the Allbright Academy. Copyright © by Diane Stanley. Reprinted by permission of HarperCollins Publishers, Inc.

I also like the second book "the mystery of i.m." fine i think. This story has like no romance except for one distant part and they dont go too deep into that. Horrible part is that they are poisening kids with BROWNIES! Of all the evil things they are poisening kids with brownies. How awful. But Franny, Prescott,Cal, and that poet guy whose name escapes and me at the moment stop them! It is really good with tons of twists and surprises! I think that if you like mysteries you will LOVE this book!
This was the best book ever
I love the characters and the story seems real Litteraly
This book is an outstanding story by the incredibly wonderful author, Diane Stanley. It's a mystery with a very important and unique moral. You'll love it. Trust me.

now trading below book value. with the flat yieldcurve, and rates down, NLY's ARM portfolio may not bedoing well. hence, the declination in value. may be areal opportunity here for long-term appreciation andyield if they can pull it off.
Consider, too, that NLY has been moving intofixed rate mortgages, which comprised nearly 20% of itsportfolio at 1Q98-end. FRM should be performing better thanARMS in this market, since FRM market is much morebroad.
i did not know that they started to move to fixed rate product. that is obviously good news.

We fly nonstop to Palm Springs from Portland, Seattle, Sacramento, and San Francisco, and connect from dozens of other cities in the Northwest.
Palm Springs was desert until the 1950s when Hollywood's celebrities turned it into a home away from home. It remains a relaxed, sun-drenched escape for Angelenos of all stripes and its liberal spirit has made it a popular LGBT destination.
If you have the time, take a day trip to Joshua Tree National Park and visit the aptly-named Skull Rock or Keys View for a panoramic view of the entire Coachella Valley.
We're flying to Pride celebrations, fantastic vacation spots, and wedding destinations all over the country. Take a look at these city guides to help plan your next trip.

Recent economic news has been broadly reassuring. Retail sales are strong, November saw the best job gains in three years, the federal deficit is shrinking, the stock market is robust, and the Fed is expressing enough faith in the economy that an interest rate bump next year is considered a certainty.
Yet the public remains unconvinced. This is partly because perceptions haven't caught up to reality.

Would never buy games at full price anymore. Games are discounted about 1-2 weeks later.
Usually wait for price drops but if it's a developer I support or game I really want I will buy it at full price.
Not always, some games take forever to drop in price and/or rarely go on sale. But if it's a game I really want from a developer I really like, I'd be glad to pay full price to support them.

Mizuishi Architect Atelier. Housed on a lot of about 312 square feet, this three-cornered abode includes a deck, a loft play area, as well as a full bedroom, bath and office. It's the perfect example of the kind of creativity and innovation that small spaces often inspire. Perhaps more importantly, it is a reminder that beauty truly does come in all shapes and sizes -- some soaring and gigantic, some tiny and modest, some arched, some straight, and some, of course, that make a point.

Here is a helix driver seal we made by cutting base from helix driver
wadcup, good for fullbore roundballs that are too big to go in cup.
Best one to cut off is shortest `12ga one BPI has.
Here is picture of a 585HE made on a Stiller bolt action for guy in Canada.
It was made for the poster Spooksar on Africa Hunting and Accuratereloading,
by Corlanes/Rocky Mountain rifles, in Dawson Creek BC Canada, with a
Stiller action, Timney trigger. the stock is a blue/grey laminate. He imported
the barrel, cases, dies, etc.. from us, through Prophet River in Lloydminster AB.
That action similar to Lawton we had and neighbor got, that won the King Of The
2 Mile shoot at Whittington, with the 375 Lethal cartridge the neighbor made,
from our 585 brass. Made it full length case,.. It is big one on the right.
He made an 18 lb gun with McMillan target stock, a huge scope, tripod..
Nice thing is we don't need BMG action.

.375 Lethal Precision Arms LLC rifle shooting prototype solid 400gr Berger bullets.
Mitchell built this rifle himself using a McMillan A5 Super Mag stock, Rock Creek barrel,
Nightforce ATACR MOA scope, Phoenix Precision Bipod, and a Lethal Precision Arms
muzzle brake. Lawton Action. Lethal Precision his own gunsmith shop, will make
these target rifles for anyone into target shooting and long range hunting..
Remarkably, Mitchell nailed first- and second- shot hits at the 2477-yard target,
a full 1.4 miles away. It is windy out there, makes shooting hard with a time limit.
The prototype 400 grain Berger Bullets solid was superb, (G7 BC of 0.56 at 3000 fps).

Naghmeh Abedini, wife of imprisoned Iranian-American pastor Saeed Abedini, delivered a heartfelt plea to lawmakers during a Congressional hearing Thursday, begging them to end her family's "nightmare" and help release her husband from the deadly Rajaï Shahr prison in Iran.
Naghmeh spoke alongside Jordan Sekulow, executive director of the American Center for Law and Justice, during Thursday's Joint Subcommittee Hearing, during which lawmakers sought to address the current status of Pastor Abedini and other American citizens being held in Iran. Saeed Abedini was arrested in July 2012 and charged with undermining Iran's security, although it is believed he is really being detained due to his Christian faith.
At Thursday's Congressional hearing, Naghmeh criticized the failure of the United States to bring up Abedini's imprisonment during recent nuclear talks with Iran, saying those talks were the "perfect" opportunity to negotiate her husband's release. "I feel my husband has been abandoned," she said. more >>
U.S. pastor Saeed Abedini was robbed at knifepoint at Iran's Rajai Shahr prison, the American Center for Law and Justice confirmed, sparking further fears for his life.
"Pastor Saeed is facing constant threats to his very life in the new prison. There have been several nights where he has awoken to men standing over him with knives. Pastor Saeed's 'cell' is only separated by a curtain from the rest of the violent prisoner ward he is forced to share, allowing dangerous prisoners – murderers and rapists – unfettered access to him 24 hours a day," ACLJ Executive Director Jordan Sekulow shared in an update earlier this week.
"He has also been robbed at knifepoint several times, stripping him of what few necessities he has been permitted to purchase for personal hygiene." more >>
The family of Pastor Saeed Abedini said in a recent interview that they are "devastated" that the Obama administration failed to secure Abedini's release during recent negotiation talks with Iran, in which the Middle Eastern country agreed to limit its nuclear program in exchange for lighter economic sanctions. Abedini is an American pastor who has been imprisoned in Iran over the past year for his Christian faith.
"As a wife and a mom, it's devastating," Naghmeh Abedini, the pastor's wife, told Fox News Radio. Naghmeh and her family saw these recent peace talks between Iran and the U.S. as a possible opportunity for Abedini to be released from his eight-year prison sentence. The pastor was sentenced in January 2013 under the charges of "planting house churches that are intended to undermine national security."
Naghmeh added to Fox News Radio that she now believes the U.S. has no leveraging power since making the nuclear program deal. "Iran has no incentive for them to release him. I don't think we have any more leverage. We now have to consider other avenues and having other countries speak out because our country when we could have used our leverage chose to stay silent." more >>
Israel criticized on Sunday an interim nuclear deal the United States and other world powers reached with Iran, calling it a "historic mistake." It is also a "betrayal" of U.S. Pastor Saeed Abedini, who is in an Iranian prison because of his Christian faith, said the American Center for Law and Justice, which had urged Washington to secure his release as a precondition.
"What was concluded in Geneva last night is not a historic agreement, it's a historic mistake," Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said, of the four-page agreement, to which Britain, France, China, Russia and Germany are also party.
Named the "Joint Plan of Action," the deal requires Iran to freeze its nuclear program for six months even as negotiators continue to push for a longer-term agreement. In return, Iran will be provided with up to $7 billion in relief from international sanctions for the duration of the interim agreement. more >>
The American Center for Law and Justice has urged Secretary of State John Kerry, who is in Geneva for nuclear talks with Iran, to secure the release of U.S. Pastor Saeed Abedini, who is in an Iranian prison because of his Christian faith, before an agreement on that country's nuclear program.
"The actions of the Iranian regime have utterly ignored President Obama's demand for Mr. Abedini's release," Jay Sekulow, chief counsel of the ACLJ, wrote to Kerry this week.
"Failure to secure Mr. Abedini's freedom and return to the United States while executing an agreement with the Islamic Republic of Iran sends the unmistakable message that the United States will not protect its own citizens even when dealing directly with the government of the Islamic Republic of Iran," added Sekulow. more >>
The family of Pastor Saeed Abedini in Iran has finally been allowed to visit him in Rajai Shahr Prison, where he was abruptly transferred to earlier this month. But the U.S. citizen is still being denied the medication that he needs.
"Pastor Saeed's situation remains dire. However, we are encouraged that his Iranian family was allowed visitation – and that his Iranian family was able to see him face-to-face and communicate with him. Pastor Saeed, however, has yet to receive the medication he has been prescribed for internal injuries suffered at the hands of his captors," the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ) reported in an update on the pastor's condition on Monday.
The update served as the first physical confirmation of Pastor Saeed's condition and life since he was taken out of Evin Prison earlier this month and transferred to Rajai Shahr. The law group, which represents Abedini's wife and two children in the U.S., noted that the pastor is being kept inside the violent criminal ward and is sharing a cell with other prisoners. more >>

It's a bit pricy, but you get what you pay for
Posted by Charybdis on Oct 05, 2013
The powder goes on silky and smoothly. The color is amazing - on me it turns out to be a dark pinkish with a little bit of sparkle. I naturally have a little pink on my eyelids, and this eyeshadow accentuates that in a very flattering way. It would be great for a day or night look. It is a bit pricy, but it is definitely quality - all natural and safe. For something that's going near your eyes, you want something that's non toxic. And this is definitely quality eyeshadow.

This is the first account in any language of the civil wars in Europe during the era of the world wars, from 1905 to 1949. It treats the initial confrontations in the decade before World War I, the confusing concept of 'European civil war,' the impact of the world wars, the relation between revolution and civil war and all the individual cases of civil war, with special attention to Russia and Spain. The civil wars of this era are compared and contrasted with earlier internal conflicts, with particular attention to the factors that made this era a time of unusually violent domestic contests, as well as those that brought it to an end. The major political, ideological and social influences are all treated, with a special focus on violence against civilians.

US rockers call off next month's gig
Bad news if you've bought tickets for Panic at the Disco's show. Promoter Lushington Entertainments said the August 12 gig had to be cancelled.
'Due to circumstances beyond their control, Panic at the Disco regret that they are unable to perform in Hong Kong. The band extend an apology to their fans in Hong Kong and promise to return in the near future.'
But the press release didn't explain what the circumstances were. It also didn't say whether the Las Vegas-based emo group's other Asian gigs were off as well.
Could it be slow ticket sales? It's hard to imagine they actually have a large base here. Put it this way: name one song or video by the band you've heard or seen on local radio and TV stations.
Tickets will be refunded through the original mode of payment. So, if you used a credit card to buy your ticket, it will be automatically refunded.
If you bought tickets by cash, you'll have to take them back to the Hong Kong Ticketing Box Office at the Convention and Exhibition Centre before August 18. Their hours are Monday to Saturday from 11am to 7pm.

SAN JOSE, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 01/02/13 -- SPYRUS today announced that two editions of the SPYRUS Secure Pocket Drive (SPD) have been made available for use by the United States Department of Agriculture's (USDA) International Technology Services (ITS) customers. Secure Pocket Drive allows users to run their own customized applications and third-party productivity software, such as Microsoft Office locally in addition to accessing corporate networks and virtual desktop infrastructures (VDI). The USDA estimates up to 40,000 units of the Secure Pocket Drive will be deployed to its personnel as a secure device in its support of the Telework Enhancement Act of 2010.
Designed as a secure trusted endpoint to augment a worker's desktop and secure Internet and cloud computing applications, Secure Pocket Drive is the first and only licensed solution that boots the Microsoft Windows Embedded Standard (WES) 7 operating system or Ubuntu Linux from a pocket-sized encrypting USB flash drive. Secure Pocket Drive can be booted on almost any Wintel or Apple Macintosh desktop or laptop in less than 60 seconds.
For teleworkers who require remote access to the USDA Virtual Desktop Infrastructure exclusively, the USDA has integrated a custom read-only Ubuntu Linux LiveCD to be booted from the SPD Remote Access Edition, leveraging the hardware enforced read only access as an additional layer of protection. For executives who need offline processing power and secure data storage while traveling in airports and airplanes, USDA is planning the availability of the SPD Productivity Edition with WES 7 and targeting the SPYRUS Secure Portable Workplace for Windows To Go in the second quarter of 2013.
USDA executives understand the need to prevent cross-contamination of their stored data through the transfer of malware from host PCs as well as the potential for their laptop data being compromised by increasingly sophisticated hacking attempts against laptops carried by traveling workers. The extensive built-in security self checks of the Secure Pocket Drive make it extremely difficult if not impossible to successfully gain access to information held on the SPYRUS Secure Pocket Drive, or to the corporate network that is accessed by it.
Secure Pocket Drive employs the same on-board Suite B hardware security infrastructure that is built into the SPYRUS Hydra Privacy Card® family. Sector-based full disk encryption of the internal memory where the operating system and applications are stored is based on XTS-AES 256 encryption (NIST SP800-38E) and Suite B cryptography is part of the DoD cryptographic modernization program.
With the Linux Remote Access Edition, USDA expects to realize hardware refresh savings and increased security as they will no longer have to provide government furnished computers for teleworkers with capable personally owned systems. They have demonstrated the capability to re-provision older computers that cannot boot Vista or Windows 7, even without a hard drive, to extend return on investment on these unused assets. USDA employees and contractors can safely leave the laptop behind in hotel rooms, or even lose it since the laptop contains no mechanism to store data or access the USDA network.
With the Windows SPD's, multiple SPYRUS patents are used to lock the Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) Windows OS to the device and provide cryptographic protection against modification to the boot loader and the operating system. The patented methods enforce on-the-fly integrity validation to enable fast and secure boot-up and enhance the user experience without suffering the performance or vulnerability penalties incurred by other bootable products. The patented Secure Pocket Drive was designed from the ground up with strong FIPS 140-2 Level 3 hardware, US Government-approved next-generation cryptographic algorithms, and extensive built-in self-checking functionality to protect the device, the operating system, and the user.
"The USDA deployment of the Secure Pocket Drive validates the high assurance security techniques we utilize to protect against transfer of malware from host computers to corporate networks," said Tom Dickens, COO of SPYRUS. "USDA has discovered that everyone from executives to teleworkers to road warriors can use the Secure Pocket Drive for worry-free secure computing."
