Re: magazine
I find that food magazines get a bit repeatative after about 2 years. I have got about 3 years of the ABC delicious magazine and I'm now getting it again because they offered a cheap deal on subscription but it doesn't hold my interest like it used to. I like gourmet traveller but it's a touch too expensive. Donna Hay has too much white space for my liking.

Re: magazine
I got the uk delicious mag when i was there in 05. I found that it had more ads than the australian version
#7 Tue 20 Mar 07 8:57am
Re: magazine
so many ads..I guess they need them to keep the magazine running.
My main query with Delicious is why do we need to have full page spreads with chefs' photos? Jamie is cute, I must admit, but even I get tired of seeing endless photos of him. Then you add oll those other celebrity chefs and half of the mag is them modelling! I know what they look like!
Personally I would like more step by step shoots (of food preparation, that is).

Re: magazine
I am totally addicted to food magazines!!!
I buy Donna Hay, Delicious, Australian Gourmet Traveller, Olive, and Waitrose. Then there are a couple of Norwegian magazines that I buy when I'm home...
And if I'm out travelling and find something interesting you can be sure that I pick it up!
But all the magazines I buy here are either Australian or from U.K... I don't like the American ones at all!
And don't even get me started on the cook books...
I just got Thomas Keller's French Laundry and Pierre Herme's Dessert-and I love them both!
#9 Tue 20 Mar 07 10:49pm
Re: magazine
Hey confuzed,
you sound worse than me!
I love books, and the two American books you mentioned even have photos (a luxury in America!). Pierre Herme's is good, but not as good as my last dessert book discovery, Alessandra Zecchini's Sweet As. I am making two or three recipes each week now!
I can't decide on magazines...too difficult.
Donna Hey: nice photos, end of story
Delicious: too many chefs spoil the broth
Gourmet Traveller: nice travel, but not enough follow up with exotic flavours...once I bought one of the Australian GT because they were talking about Sicilian ice cream..lots of photos...you would hope for some recipes...nahhh!
Waitrose and other supermarket magazines always fail to excite me and I am certailnly not a Martha Stewart type.
Maybe I am just too fussy
if I became rich my dream would be to have my own food and life-style magazine!!
then I could even meet Jamie
Confuzed, you could be my book reviewer!

Nine universities team on border security issues
By Kris Rodriguez
Public Affairs Specialist
(Nov. 14, 2006)--Nine research universities in Southwest border states announced Nov. 13 the formation of the Southwest Border Security Consortium, an alliance that will develop and promote scientific and policy solutions to issues affecting the U.S.-Mexico border region.
"The SBSC is a collaboration of universities with unique expertise and a broad range of assets that can be leveraged to address the challenges facing the public and private sectors on both sides of our border," said Elyse Golob, director of the University of Arizona Office of Economic and Policy Analysis. "We expect this consortium to be a national asset in security research, education and training."

- UTSA alumna Jordan Kaufmann wins $50K for new stent-graft start-up
- UTSA begins new way-finding sign installation this summer at Main Campus
- USA Today: UTSA long jumper Tyler Williamson rescues three-year-old boy
Article tools
The announcement was made at ComDef Tucson 2006, an international conference in Arizona on technologies for border security, defense and commerce.
SBSC member institutions are UTSA, Arizona State University, University of Arizona, New Mexico State University, New Mexico Tech, University of New Mexico, San Diego State University, Texas A&M Engineering and University of Texas at El Paso.
Retired Lt. Gen. Lawson Magruder, executive director of the UTSA Institute for the Protection of American Communities (IPAC), said SBSC expects to play a national leadership role in addressing border issues by offering a comprehensive, multi-institutional set of capabilities to relevant agencies such as the U.S. Departments of Homeland Security, Defense, Energy and Transportation.
"The issues are complex and by no means limited to security concerns," he said. "Maintaining a free flow of commerce, sustaining our natural resources, addressing the unique health and educational needs of our border region -- these are concerns on both sides of the international boundary. By drawing on the resources and expertise of nine research universities located in the border region, we believe we can become a leading resource on these issues."
Capabilities of the SBSC institutions span a range of areas relevant to border and homeland security issues including:
- Agricultural and supply-chain security
- Behavioral and social aspects of terrorism and counterterrorism
- Bioscience, biotechnology and public health
- Critical infrastructure and natural resources protection
- Cyber and information security
- Detection and surveillance
- Educational outreach, training and technical assistance
- Emergency management and response
- Energetic materials research and testing
- Intelligent transportation design and traffic surveillance
- Legal infrastructures
- Multimodal transportation security
- Regional and cultural issues
- Trans-border economic, legal, political, policy and trade issues
- Social modeling and analysis
"As state universities located in these four border states, we have a deep-rooted commitment to the safety and prosperity of our region," said Robert Silver, senior strategic director at the New Mexico State University Physical Science Laboratory. "This strategic collaboration will enable us to use our collective resources in an integrated, seamless approach to research and development, testing and evaluation, and training. We also will be able to interface with Mexican stakeholders on border issues."
Bob Welty, director of homeland security projects for the San Diego State University Research Foundation, said this wide array of capabilities will allow SBSC to take a leadership role in providing solutions to border security issues at the local, state, regional and national levels.
"Through this consortium, the expertise of these nine research universities can be focused on providing quick-response analysis and solutions to technical and policy challenges," Welty said.
SBSC also will serve as a national clearinghouse for information on border security issues and conduct seminars, workshops and conferences.

Wayne Law Student Third-Place Recipient in Environmental Law Essay Contest
DETROIT (Sept. 22, 2008) - Wayne State University Law School congratulates third-year student Jim Roush on his recent third-place finish in the State Bar of Michigan's 7th Annual Environmental Law Essay Contest. The annual contest, sponsored by the Environmental Law Section of the State Bar of Michigan, provides students with the opportunity to express their interest in today's environmental law issues.
"I would like to congratulate Jim on a remarkable accomplishment," said Wayne Law Dean and Professor of Law Robert M. Ackerman. "He has gone above and beyond the call of duty as a law student and is a great example of the caliber of students enrolled here at Wayne Law."
Roush, who earned his undergraduate degree in psychology from the University of Michigan in 2005 and currently serves as the president of the Wayne Law Environmental Society, entered the contest primarily due to his interest in environmental law and the potential exposure it would yield in the field, such as being published in the Michigan Environmental Law Journal.
"I thought this contest would be a great opportunity for me to explore a subject of great interest to me," said Roush, whose long-term career goal is to specialize in climate change law. "At the award dinner I both learned about some recent developments in Michigan environmental law and had a great time meeting a large number of environmental practitioners. I'm really looking forward to working in the field."
Roush's essay looked at the recent federal ban on incandescent light bulbs. Specifically, it examined the relevant precedent for such a ban, discussed possible justifications for the ban, and suggested changes to improve the law.
According to the State Bar of Michigan, contestants were critiqued on their originality, quality of research, clarity of style, organization and practicality. For questions regarding contest rules and next year's contest, log onto www.michbar.org/environment/essay.cfm.

Costa Rica hangs its jaunty Panama hat on two things: eco-tourism and adventure sports.
It helps when more than a quarter of your country is protected rainforest with more biodiversity than USA and Europe combined, and the rest is a jaw-dropping combo of bubbling volcanoes, Pacific surf beaches and laid-back towns like Quepos and Sarapiqui. Costa Rica tours are all about nature putting on a show –you'll quickly become a pro at spotting keel-billed toucans in the cloud forests of Monteverde or listening out for the distant whoop of white-faced capuchins – but really it's the pace of life here that gets you. 'Hustle' and 'bustle' aren't really in Costa Rica's vocab. Pretty much what you'd expect from a country's whose unofficial motto is pura vida (the pure life).

Costa Rica & Panama Discovery, May 2017
Kate Walters
Panama was amazing! Beaches and snorkeling were beautiful - more so than what we saw in Costa Rica. Really didn't know what to expect from Panama but it was perfect! Would recommend doing a boat trip on the canal - was a highlight for sure!

Costa Rica Experience, May 2017
Christy Articola
This was my first Intrepid trip but I am so excited to do many more! Everything was just perfect. We saw so much and did so much and I learned a great deal about Costa Rica's beauty and culture. The people were great - the leader, the other people on the trip, and the locals we met. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone - it is an incredible deal, especially for the cost - but it would still be a great deal, even if I paid more!

While tipping isn't mandatory in Costa Rica, rounding up the bill and leaving spare change at restaurants and cafes is generally standard practice. 500 colones should be sufficient.
Costa Rica's cities and tourist centres have internet access available in internet cafes and hotel lobbies. Internet access is less available in rural and remote areas.
Mobile phone coverage is generally good in Costa Rica's cities and metropolitan areas, although expect limited coverage in remote or mountainous areas. Ensure you have global roaming activated with your carrier if you wish to use your phone while in Costa Rica.
Costa Rica's toilets are a mixture of flushable toilets and squat toilets, so be prepared to encounter both. Carry your own supply of toilet paper and soap as these aren't always provided.
Coconut drink = 250 CRC
Can of soft drink = 450 CRC
Bottle of beer = 1000 CRC
Basic lunch = 2000 CRC
Sit down dinner in a restaurant = 5000-7500 CRC
Although tap water is considered safe to drink in Costa Rica's cities, it's probably a good idea to avoid drinking tap water in Costa Rica. For environmental reasons, try to avoid bottled water. Ask your leader where filtered water can be found as some hotels provide this. Remember to peel fruit and vegetables before eating and avoid ice in drinks.
Major credit cards are accepted by most large shops, hotels and restaurants, although smaller vendors and market stalls often only accept cash.
ATMs are easily found in the large cities and airports, although are less common in rural and remote areas. When travelling out of the city, come prepared by having enough cash as ATMs aren't always an option.
Absolutely. All passengers travelling with Intrepid are required to purchase travel insurance before the start of their trip. Your travel insurance details will be recorded by your leader on the first day of the trip. Due to the varying nature, availability and cost of health care around the world, travel insurance is very much an essential and necessary part of every journey.

Responsible Travel
Intrepid is committed to travelling in a way that is respectful of local people, their culture, local economies and the environment. It's important to remember that what may be acceptable behaviour, dress and language in your own country, may not be appropriate in another. Please keep this in mind while travelling.
Top responsible travel tips for Costa Rica
- Be considerate of Costa Rica's customs, traditions, religion and culture.
- For environmental reasons, try to avoid buying bottled water. Fill a reusable water bottle or canteen with filtered water instead.
- Always dispose of litter thoughtfully, including cigarette butts.
- When bargaining at markets, stay calm, be reasonable and keep a smile on your face. It's meant to be fun!
- Learn some local language and don't be afraid to use it - simple greetings will help break the ice.
- Shop for locally made products. Supporting local artisans helps keep traditional crafts alive.
- Refrain from supporting businesses that exploit or abuse endangered animals.
- Please ask and receive permission before taking photos of people, including children.
- When on community visits or homestays, refrain from giving gifts or money to locals.
- Admire coral while diving and snorkelling, but never remove coral from a reef or buy coral items from markets. Coral belongs in the sea.

Bosses bringing their iPads or new smart phones into work can be putting their own companies in danger of costly cyber attacks, says a security consultant.
Aura Information Security's Andy Prow said executives could be the most risky members of an organisation because they might not understand the cyber threats they faced.
"The first people in an organisation to get iPads or Blackberry's will be the [executives] because it's cool and they want it." Prow said.
"IT says, 'Well we don't support that device yet', and the execs say, 'Well it doesn't matter ... set it up so I can access my email'."
However, while more bosses were wanting to use new devices at work, Prow said they were not necessarily secured properly.
"Particularly at the executive level they understand why the corporate systems must all be looked after and protected but haven't understood why things they use on a regular basis must also come under those constraints."
Prow also said the types of information that executives were accessing tended to be some of the business' most crucial information such as sales plans or information about new products.
However, if corporate data was breached or "millions of dollars go out of a company that shouldn't have" after a cyber attack, bosses were the ones that had to answer to their board or the media, he said.
Prow was part of a panel discussion on cyber crime hosted in Auckland yesterday by insurance company Chartis.
According to Chartis, cyber crime is on the rise and the risk of data theft - whether intellectual property or client details - could be hugely expensive for a business.
Chartis' Ian Pollard cited a study which said cyber attacks cost New Zealand companies $625 million last year.
As well as outsiders trying to get into a business' systems, disgruntled employees could also be responsible for cyber crime and the theft or leaking of data, Pollard said.
Ernst & Young senior manager of fraud investigation, Matt Hammond, was also a speaker yesterday and said many businesses had "massively understated" cyber threats.
Hammond said the "monetisation of data on the black market" has created a world where people "can convert data into cash".
DAC Beachcroft's Mark Anderson said there was a myth in business that only companies holding credit card details would be a target for cyber crime.
"There's a real commodity in data beyond credit card details," he said.
Prow said hacking a company for data had been turned into a "business operation" and overseas attacks were very difficult to trace.
He said: "We see a huge amount of complacency [from companies] ... cyber security just isn't on their radar, it's been in the news but it's that whole, 'It won't happen to us, we're not a target, we're down in New Zealand, we don't have any juicy data'."
July 2010: Singapore's largest banking network brought to a halt and customers were unable to access ATMs or internet banking services.
August 2011: Sony PlayStation hacked and 77 million users had confidential information stolen.
October 2011: Thai Prime Minister Yingluck's Twitter account hacked and tweets criticising the Government sent out.

Paper wrap: 'The Office' ends its 8-year run
This publicity image released by NBC shows the cast of "The Office," from left, Phyllis Smith as Phyllis Vance, Jenna Fischer as Pam Beesly Halpert, Jake Lacy as Pete, Rainn Wilson as Dwight Schrute, Ellie Kemper as Erin Hannon, right, in a scene from the series finale, airing Thursday, May 16, 2013 on NBC. (AP Photo/NBC, Chris Haston)
NEW YORK (AP) — That's a wrap!
Dunder Mifflin Paper Co. lives on, but "The Office" has closed shop.
The NBC workplace comedy, set at the fictional company's Scranton, Pa., branch, aired its finale Thursday to end an eight-year run.
As expected, office manager Dwight wed tempestuous co-worker Angela, with whom he previously shared a secret affair. He had abruptly proposed to her on last week's episode.
And as a welcome surprise, former manager Michael Scott was back to serve as Dwight's best man.
It was an answered prayer not only for Dwight (who greeted him with a choked-up "I can't believe you [auth] came"), but also for viewers who were hoping that Michael might make a surprise visit in the person of Steve Carell. NBC had stayed mum on whether Carell, the star of "The Office" until his departure two seasons ago, would be in the finale or not.
"I feel like all my kids grew up and then they married each other," said Michael to the camera at the wedding reception. "It's every parent's dream!"
"The Office" premiered in 2005. It was based on the British comedy of the same name, which premiered in 2001. It starred and was co-created by Ricky Gervais. During its run on NBC, it picked up four Emmys and a prestigious Peabody award.
Other Dunder Mifflin alumni who were back for the finale included Kelly (Mindy Kaling) and Ryan (B.J. Novak).
Set a year after last week's episode, the finale provided comfortable and affectionate closure for the characters and the viewers who love them.
For instance, Andy (Ed Helms), who had left the company to chase stardom, hadn't gotten very far, beyond becoming a laughingstock from a viral video of him bursting into tears when he auditioned for a talent competition.
He had since landed an administrative job at Cornell University.
A "where-are-they-now?" panel reunited the subjects of the Dunder Mifflin mockumentary, whose make-believe production had consumed the run of "The Office" and functioned as its narrative frame.
"Do you feel that your life is pointless, now that nobody is filming you anymore?" one audience member asked.
"Yes," replied Toby (Paul Lieberstein) sadly.
In response to another question, Pam (Jenna Fischer) described her relationship with husband Jim (John Krasinski) as being "like a long book that you never want to end, and you're fine with that, because you just never, ever want to leave it."
"Like 'Harry Potter,'" cooed the questioner as the audience went, "Awwwwwwwww."
Meanwhile, Dwight (Rainn Wilson) and Angela (Angela Kinsey) celebrated their wedding, preceded by scenes of the male and female bachelor parties.
Along the way, Dwight buried the hatchet with Kevin (Brian Baumgartner), who had bought a bar after Dwight fired him from the company.
"It was nothing personal," Dwight tried to explain. "It's just that you were terrible at your job."
"You're just saying that to make me feel better," said Kevin, accepting his apology.
At the end of the episode, Pam and Jim committed to an overdue exit from their dead-end Dunder Mifflin jobs to start a new life far away, in Austin, Texas.
When they broke the news to Dwight, he fired them on the spot. But he did it as a favor: to qualify them for severance pay.
Moments later, the series' final words were voiced to the camera by Pam, who marveled at all that "The Office" had captured on film: "There's a lot of beauty in ordinary things," she declared. "Isn't that the point?"

No Bread and Butter for B's
|10.24.08 at 12:43 am ET
Not good times for the Bruins on a Thursday night when things looked so good early, but then the fat-and-happy B's allowed a seemingly lesser Toronto Maple Leafs team to outskate, outwit and outlast them over the final two periods of a 4-2 loss at the TD Banknorth Frozen Sheet.
Things got off to a swimming start when Patrice Bergeron potted his first goal since coming back from a season-ending concussion last season and rookie Blake Wheeler shook off some rookie doldrums to the give the Spoked B's a 2-0 lead. There was also some physical intimidation mixed in with the lamp-lighting as Dennis Wideman completely smoked Matt Stajan at mid-ice in the first period, and Milan Lucic shattered the large block of glass around the boards when he flattened Leafs defenseman Mike Van Ryn into the side wall.
The incident was voted Number One on ESPN SportsCenter's Top 10 plays for the night, but the tumbling shards of glass also resulted in injuries to four fans while also causing a roughly 15 minute delay to replace the glass. In the balance of those few minutes the life seemed to get sucked right out of the Bruins, and they really couldn't do anything right for the rest of the game.
The Leafs, on the other hand, went from being puck roadkill over the first 20:20 of the game to a nothing-to-lose bunch firing away on offense and watching Vesa Toskala and the Leafs 'D' shut down an easily satisfied B's offense.
There were a multitude of postgame quotes about being outworked and outhustled in the Bruins locker room — the first time this season that the B's dropped a stink bomb down at an NHL rink without their customary grit and sandpaper style. Two of the biggest culprits for the Thursday night breakdown seemed to be Phil Kessel and Marc Savard, who were kept off the scoreboard, registered only three shots on goal and each had a game-high two giveaways. Julien didn't call them out by name, but you'll get the drift. Heeere's Julien:
"I think that some of our top guys tonight weren't playing like our top guys. I'm not going to mention any names. I don't have to. Everyone knows what I'm talking about. Your best players have to be your best players. I know it cliché but it is what it is. Our best players were certainly not our best players. Everyone from top to bottom was flat. This is our bread and butter, our work ethic, and our commitment. We didn't have our bread and butter tonight."
To the Bruins credit, many of the players rang a similar tone in the Boston locker room including Milan Lucic, the author of the body check felt 'round the hockey world, who teamed with Savard and Kessel to form a pretty lackluster line thar could get busted up by an unhappy Julien if things continue as they have. One thing is for certain: the guys in the Bruins sweaters will do a fair amount of skating in practice on Friday.
The Good news: P.J. Axelsson appeared to be over his back spasms.
In the bad news department: The Bruins power play went 0-for-4 and was another areas that made Julien chafe visibly following the hockey game: "We had a chance with a power play to score the third goal. You have to learn to play with the lead. When you have the lead it doesn't mean you can take the foot off the pedal. Tonight even though it was a 2-0 hockey game we had a couple breaks, a couple lucky bounces to get the 2-0 lead. We should have taken advantage of that and understood that we weren't playing that well."

Clinic Students Secure Federal Court Settlement
Wayne State University Law School would like to congratulate the Civil Rights Litigation Clinic on their recent settlement in a case that was being tried before Judge Avern Cohn of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan.
Third-year law student Katharine Orlowski and second year student Nick Suciu III had prepared all aspects of the case of a prisoner who was held in belly chains and leg irons and who was also denied any out-of-cell exercise during 276 days of confinement in the Montmorency County Jail. The students were in the third day of trial when the Defendants settled the case.
The prisoner will receive a significant payment which is being kept confidential, and the Civil Rights Litigation Clinic will receive $30,000 in attorney fees.
The Clinic and this particular case are supervised by Daniel E. Manville, the staff attorney for the Clinic. Mr. Manville praised Orlowski and Suciu's hard work and noted the Court was impressed by their level of expertise and preparation. "This is not only a victory for our client," Manville said, "but cases like this gave the students excellent real-world experience that really impresses their future employers. The Clinic is a win-win for both students and clients."
The Civil Rights Litigation Clinic is one of five live-client clinics at the Law School that gives students real- world legal experience before they graduate.

RALEIGH, NC (AP) — State transportation officials say almost 1,800 motorists were arrested on North Carolina highways for driving while impaired during an Independence Day operation.
The NC Department of Transportation and the Governor's Highway Safety Program announced that "Operation Firecracker" resulted in 1,737 arrests for the holiday period from June 28 through July 7.
There are seven DWI task forces across North Carolina. Their purpose is to get drunk drivers off the roads. Those seven task forces were responsible for 455 of the DWI arrests.
Guilford County is one of the newest task forces. A statement from NCDOT said that during the 2013 "Operation Firecracker" campaign, the county had 146 DWI arrests, compared to 50 in 2012.

Electrical engineering seniors show innovative projects
By Kris Rodriguez
Public Affairs Specialist
(Dec. 5, 2007)--Last week in the atrium of the Biotechnology, Sciences and Engineering Building, UTSA electrical engineering seniors presented projects they designed, developed and built this semester.
Nine groups of students exhibited a variety of innovative projects that offered alternative solutions to problems already solved or solutions to problems not previously examined.

Scott McNea and classmates Chris Berg, David Valdez and Melanie Huffman devised a baby monitoring system that would monitor a baby's heart rate and breathing patterns to prevent Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS).
"If there is a certain change in the breathing or if the breathing stops altogether, we have an alarm that will let the parents know that the baby is not breathing," said McNea. "We also have a vibration system that will hopefully stimulate the baby so it will start breathing again."
Another project converted old seismographic equipment donated by the UTSA Center for Water Research. Students Ryan Ewers, Jose Fernandez, Erin Spindle and Paul Enman updated the technology from analog to a low-power, lightweight, digital application at a fraction of the cost of a new digital seismograph.
"We could give this to a geologist and they could use it to figure out if there is water, oil, fluids or a type of rock underneath the soil," said Ewers.
Other projects included an underground human locating system for people buried in debris, an improvised explosive device jammer with saturating frequencies and an energy conservation system that would allow for consumer monitoring to reduce energy consumption.
Some projects were designed with the intent of making life easier, such as the the automated ride entry system created by Valerie Elizondo, C. Chen, Thomas Hui and Ron Stanbaugh. According to Elizondo, the system determines if a person is the appropriate height and weight before climbing aboard a theme park ride. Other projects in the category were an autonomous lawnmower and a smart parking lot locator.
UTSA's new Center for Innovation and Technology Entrepreneurship hosted a competition later in the week with judges from UTSA and the San Antonio hi-tech community. First-place honors went to the baby monitor project, second place to the creators of the underground human locating system and third place to the converted seismograph project.

What would the maid have got if she did it to her? more than 5 days?
Naomi dons cleaner's outfit to carry out mop job
by Bithika Khargarhia - March 7, 2007 - 0 comments
British supermodel Naomi Campbell reportedly has to clean floors at New York's Sanitation Department as part of her punishment for attacking her housekeeper with a jewel-encrusted cellphone over a pair of missing jeans, apparently a climax of nearly a year long saga that made her more famous as a defendant than a supermodel.
The glamorous beauty will have to swap her stylish catwalk outfits for a broom, gloves and safety vest to carry out her community service, under which she can be seen mopping floors and sweeping corridors for five days, reportedly starts March 19.
But, unlike Boy George, the former singer with Culture Club, who last year in August was ordered to sweep the streets to settle drug charges in New York, Campbell will serve her five-day sentence indoors, escaping such humiliating punishment.
Campbell is scheduled to appear before a judge this week where she will formally learn her fate. However, media reports cited a court official saying that the community service order has been decided, and the model had been assigned to mop floors with other community service workers at a Sanitation Department warehouse in Manhattan.
The 36 years old, London-born beauty in January 2006 admitted that she had hit her Chilean-born former maid, Ana Scolavino, after accusing her of stealing jeans she planned to wear on the Oprah Winfrey television talk show.
She was originally charged with second-degree assault, a felony that carries a minimum punishment of one year imprisonment and a maximum of seven years behind the bars. She pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor assault in January and also apologized to Ana Scolavino, who needed four stitches in her head.
In exchange for her guilty plea, Manhattan Criminal Court handed out a five-day community service sentence to Campbell and ordered her to attend a two-day anger management classes, the second since year 2000, and fined her $240. She was also ordered to pay $363.32 to reimburse medical expenses incurred by Ms Scolavino.
On her likely punishment, Campbell's spokesman said: "Naomi is ready to report and complete her community service, no matter where or what she is assigned."
Campbell, who savored stardom quite early in life, has a history of scuffles with her employees and associates that provided a regular fodder for yellow journalism.
She has been accused of committing acts of aggression and verbal abuse against some of her employees and associates. Some of them had even filed lawsuit against her.
In 2000, she pleaded guilty in a Toronto court to a 1998 assault on Georgina Galanis, her then assistant, whom she had assaulted with a telephone in a hotel room and threatened to throw her out of a moving car. The Canadian court then ordered her to attend anger management classes.
In March 2005, she had allegedly slapped assistant Amanda Brack. Italian actress Yvonne Scio has claimed the model left her "covered in blood" after an altercation at the five-star Hotel Eden in Rome.
One more employee, Amanda Brack, who claims that the model abused her verbally and physically, has recently sued the model in New York.
Campbell, the first black woman to appear on the covers of French and British Vogue, as well as Time magazines, has blamed her sizzling rage on lingering resentment towards her father for abandoning her as a child.
She has brief relationships with lots of men from the industry, including boxer Mike Tyson, U2's bassist Adam Clayton, actor Robert de Niro, dancer Joaquin Cortes and Renault F1 team boss Flavio Briatore. In addition, she has been romantically linked to musician Eric Clapton, actor Sylvester Stallone, Prince Albert, Robert Goode, Matteo Marzotti, and actor Leonardo DiCaprio.

Re: What would the maid have got if she did it to her? more than 5 days?
Justice belongs to the rich! The courts belong to the rich and the country belongs to the rich.
Instead of going to court, that maid would have had a better chance of justice if she would have chucked that phone back at her and cracked that mindless hooligan's head open and see how she likes it.
That's the only chance of justice the poor have.
Bloody Hell, I knew she was going to get of lightly considering how much money she's got and the racism in America targeting Latinos. But 5 days community services, a tiny fine, and the maid only receiving hospital expenses.
This is too extreme even for America.
Well, she has assaulted people before, and the courts showing yet again that rich people are immune from prosecution if they target the poor, means she will do it again.
Well will she get away with it the next time. You can bet your life on it!

State lawmakers propose "School Marshals" program
Republican legislators propose a bill that would allow school districts to have armed school marshals.
State Assemblyman Tim Donnelly (R-Twin Peaks) is calling for a "School Marshal" program.
Modeled after federal air marshals who guard against terrorism, Donnelly's proposal would have teachers, principals, even janitors possibly armed.
At a news conference, he spoke about Sandy Hook teacher Vicki Soto, who was killed trying to protect her students.
"We have a moral obligation that the next Vicki Soto who is faced with inexplicable evil that she not be left defenseless," said Donnelly.
Assembly Bill 202 would allow the use of education funds to pay for the program. School districts would decide whether to participate.
Democratic legislators are against the bill.
"We've laid off thousand of teachers in the last couple of years," said Assemblyman Nancy Skinner (D-Berkeley). "Why would we use the few school personnel we have left to be armed guards, when armed guards don't always prevent shootings?"
The proposed program would ensure that those carrying concealed weapons have the proper permits and training. No one outside the school administration would know the identity of the marshals on campus.

I have too much stuff going on right now so I'm trying to decide if I should play or sit this turn out. We are in the process of painting our living room and front entry - going from the color of clay pots to tan/taupe color on our accent wall and front entry - remaining walls are going to be a much lighter cream color - very neutral. Still have time to decide to join the group again.
I had quilt club last night - we are making the quilt from the book "Every Barn Tells A Story" and we are required to have three blocks done for each meeting, This Saturday our Groovy Girls quilt club meets and for that we are making a Moda Friendship Quilt - we make five blocks for each months meeting. I have BOM to complete each month and I signed up for the doll quilt swap so need to make a doll quilt and ship that out before the end of the month. I'm kind of busy for the time being - gardening will be starting soon - YEA happy dance - what's this girl going to do.

Great place, in a nice area. The pictures depicts the apartment very well, so you get what you're expecting basically. The light in the kitchen doesn't work and there's not a lot of knives and other tools in the kitchen, but everything else is great and functions well. Maurizio was a good host, his English is good and understandable. Overall we had a nice trip.
Maurizio was a wonderful host. Punctual and extremely helpful, he had great recommendations for our Palermo visit. The apartment was clean and everything was as advertised. I shall look forward to staying here again on my next visit.
The apartment is large, well-equipped and very clean.
The location is ideal for excursions into town.
Watching market life from the little balcony in front is fascintating, whereas the bedrooms in the back are absolutely quiet.
Maurizio is a friendly and generous host.
Dear Maurizio,
we have reached our home again without any trouble and will now thank you for that wonderful time in your apartment in palermo.The location is perfect to reconnoitre this coloured town with all it´s profiles, specialy this remarkable via carini.The apartment is calm for all that dayly life in the street.We had all we needed,only the knifes shold be sharpened again.
We will recommend your apartment to friends who will also try this adventure PALERMO and hope to come back again one day.
Thank you so mutch
Gabi + Manfred Peter
Very nice flat, located right in the middle of the city center. Not too loud even with a market in front since the bedrooms are situated to the backyard.
Maurizio responded immediately and was very friendly and helpful. We can fully recommend this place.
The flat was gorgeous. There is a lot of space and everything you need is there. When you walk out of the door you are standing in the middle of the market. Its great, you get everything fresh and tasty. We really enjoyed our stay in this flat. The only negative points where, that we didnt know where to put the trash outside and that we couldnt contact maurizio for giving him back the keys. For sure he was very nice, but it was a little unorganized.
And just as a note: dont leave the windows open in the night, there are a lot of wild cats and they try to come inside ;)
Maurizio and Marilia are very nice and kind people, we felt very welcomed to their house. From the balcony we could look at the daily food market of Palermo, we enjoyed it very much. We hope to rent the apartment in the future!
Karin with family
Very nice apartment in the old Palermo quarter.
Lots of room, a small balcony on the front side with a lovely view on the daily market and a large and quiet balcony at the back side.
Well-equipped kitchen.

I currently have two hives of Italian bees. What if I wanted to change the queens with Buckfast queen? Is this normal practices? Do the bees take to the new queen easily?
I currently have two hives of Italian bees. What if I wanted to change the queens with Buckfast queen? Is this normal practices? Do the bees take to the new queen easily?
Requeening is, unfortunately, fairly common nowadays. When you find a queen producer, they will likely have instructions on the process. Basically, you remove the old queen for a period long enough for the bees to discover they are queenless. Then, you introduce the new queen in a queen cage. The bees release the new queen in a few days and, hopefully, accept her and things go on from there. There are variations, and your mileage may vary.
...We don't see things as they are, we see things as WE are...
Why do you want to change? Requeening can be tricky but is typically straight forward like Lburou describes.
I guess if you change the queen then in about 6 weeks you could have entirely different habit bees. Some flavors of bees seem to need continued input of that genetics or they drift back to some less than desirable mixture. A lot of people seem to feel that local adapted mongrels are better than designer bees. My climate seems to favor a Carni / Italian cross. A friend has Buckfast and likes them but he does buy replacement Buckfast queens.
I doubt that queen read the same books. My best queen is 4 years old and still out producing the younger ones. Dont' requeen unless you see an actual decline in production.
it is quite common to requeen to reduce swarming. I know of few people that know how to count how many eggs their queen lays every day, but we have cars that tell us when to change oil or add air to the tires. In areas that have AHB it is almost a necessity.
Bosco - if you are new to beekeeping, Buckfasts may be a fantastic choice. The re-queening method I use gives very good results. The Laidlaw queen introduction cage is made of a wooden rectangle 5" wide x 7" long x 7/8" tall on the inside dimension, 6 1/2" x 8 1/2" outside. It is covered with #8 hardware cloth or metal screen on top. It has a sheet metal strip around the inside perimeter, protruding 3/8" below the bottom of the wood.
As Lee said, remove the queen for a few hours so they know they are queenless. On a nice FLAT piece of comb with ~3/4 open cells and the rest honey, brush off all bees, place the new (Buckfast) queen on it and quickly cover her with the Laidlaw cage, pushing it down so that the metal is embedded in the comb and the wood bottoms out. This should give her plenty of cells in which to begin laying eggs. Laying eggs will bring up her level of hormones, assuring her acceptance.
At first, the bees will probably not accept her - she is not their mom, but an invading bee. They attack at her, forming a ball of angry bees on the top of the cage. It may take even a couple of weeks for them to stop attacking her and accept her. DON'T LET HER OUT OF THE CAGE UNTIL THEY STOP "BALLING" HER! When they stop balling, and attending bees instead begin feeding her through the screen, you can let her out of the cage.
The Laidlaw cage often gets 100% acceptance of new queens. If they have not stopped balling her, either there is something wrong with the queen, or you have not given her enough time to get her queen substances (especially pheromones) levels up.
You can see a photo of it in Dr. Harry H. Laidlaw's book, Contemporary Queen Rearing, available through Dadant and Sons.
I have a two queen hive. One Italian and the other is Carniolan. Bees don't mind having more than one queen, you just need to keep them from each other. I use a vertical queen excluder in a long (double width) hive. (Merged two hives.)
Having the different breeds seems get the best of both breeds. Where one is lacking, the other makes up for it. For example, my Italians are very gentle but don't deal with pests very well. The Carniolan are also very gentle but do deal with pests well. The double hive is doing much better than when the Italians were on their own. Of course they also have a higher population with two queens.
So having two queens is also an option.

Book Synopsis
From the Book: Is Chief-Inspector Maigret the only person concerned by the death of a thief?
A burglar is found battered to death on a mid-winter's night in Paris. the victim was murdered, stripped of all ID and thrown from a car on to the icy streets, yet his criminal background has Maigret's superiors eager to dismiss the killing as an underworld vendetta. Certainly nothing the police should concern themselves with, especially when they are supposed to be on the trail of a gang of armed robbers.
Book Review
There is an awful lot to like about Maigret in AND THE IDLE BURGLAR. Despite dreadful facial injuries, Maigret knows the identity of this man instantly from a single tattoo on his body. The victim, Cuendet, is well known to him. He's a career burglar - a Swiss man, who started out very young as a run of the mill burglar; graduating after a period in the Foreign Legion to an extremely professional, cautious and studied burglar. He has a particular method - he carefully cases out a target, using the newspapers and social magazines to pick a victim; frequently moving into a room or hotel nearby so that he can carefully watch his intended target. He often enters houses when the victims are home, quietly leaving with their jewelery or money, not even waking up the householders. He causes no damage, he lives very simply - he even hoards a lot of his booty. And he has earned a grudging respect from Maigret. Maigret is therefore deeply aggrieved when the French Justice system decides that there are bigger fish to fry than solve a seeming underworld vendetta.
But the French Justice system is currently upside down as far as Maigret is concerned - the police don't control their own actions - Public Prosecutors now control the priorities and methods of investigation, and that is causing a lot of resentment in long-term career Police. So whilst he is seemingly concentrating on finding a gang of hold-up men - because Justice is now obsessed with crime against money - not violence against people in Maigret's opinion - he also quietly works on solving the killing of Cuendet.
In the days before mobile telephones, faxes, email and other forms of instant communication, investigation's proceeded differently. Part of the attraction of these books is the way that a police force knows it's constituency - it's citizens. They sniff the wind and find the scent, and their methodology doesn't feel overly dated because the characterisations in Simenon's books are so vivid and so enjoyable. The sense of indignation that is almost seething from Maigret's pores over the focus in crime fighting is palpable.

A watch strap or watch band is no longer simply a throw-away product that just serves the purpose of keeping a watch on your wrist, it a so much more than that. It affects the whole look and feel of your watch and personal style. In the same way that a watch isn't just a means of telling the time, but a fashion accessory, the watch
strap has developed too. There are watch straps available in various styles (classic, modern, vintage, sporty, rustic, waterproof etc.) and made out of various materials (Leather, Caoutchouc, Silicone, Textile, Stainless Steel, Titanium, Aluminium...). This is the product diversity which we aim to present to you in this shop. Our aim for this shop is to present you with the widest range possible to give you the best chance of finding exactly what you need for your watch and your style. We have everything
from basic to luxury, simple to exotic, purely functional to extravagant... along with watch straps in extra long or extra short sizes and other special designs (NATO-Straps, straps with leather pads, perforated watch straps). We also offer original replacement watch straps as well as watch straps from respected manufacturers made especially for a range of watches (CASIO, JUNGHANS, JACOB JENSEN, SEIKO etc.). Some of these replacement watch straps have special attachments and are therefore only suitable for the
watch models mentioned in the product descriptions. We therefore recommend that you purchase watches with standard lug ends, so that you will always have a choice in price and style when replacing your watch strap. We also stock a range of belts and watch accessories, tools and parts (e.g.. buckles, clasps and spring bars).

[Article]-Video: Client-Sides, Social Engineering and Metasploit, Oh My!
Permanent link: [Article]-Video: Client-Side, Social Engineering and Metasploit, Oh My!
[b]By Chris Gates, CISSP, GCIH, C|EH, CPTS
It should be obvious to everyone that the bad guys are moving away from network level attacks and moving toward social engineering coupled with client-side attacks. In fact, this is the focus of the next ChicagoCon in May, where I will be presenting this exact topic live. Penetration testers need to be able to help an organization detect and respond to client-side attacks, and what better way to do that than to do a little client side exploitation during your pentests.
A new mixin has been added to the Metasploit Framework that allows the penetration tester to create and output the files that contain the exploit code instead of just serving up the exploit on a web page. This increases the attack surface by allowing the pentester to perform their Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) gathering to collect email addresses for the target domain. We then take those addresses and actually send the exploit to the victim as an attachment in the email versus a link to a website. Your mileage may very on the effectiveness of that technique, but in my experience people seem to be more apt to open attachments of "normal" or "non-malicious" type like .pdf and .html rather than clicking on links. Some example formats that can be used with the fileformat mixin are .pdf, .html, .cab, .m3u, .xpm, as well as others.[br /]
**This isn't to say that some fileformat exploits can't be delivered via the web. You can easily link to www.evil.com/evil.pdf, but some lend themselves to easier exploitation if you can get the file into a user's inbox. So let's take a quick look at how this can be accomplished.

As an Architect I concentrate less on detail these days and more on fluffy bits, so I get to spend time looking at things that are coming down the pipe and trends and changes in the future. I'm aware that many other Architects are focused differently. There might therefore be some value from me sharing some of the areas that I see changes happening in. In fact, I am finding this whole area extremely exciting at the moment (in a very geeky kind of way).
I have looked at a lot of changes that have occurred over the time in a very cynical way as bring more evolutionary, repackaging of existing technologies or cyclical than anything. Examples of these kinds of changes are AJAX (I did that in the 90's with IE5 – so last century), SOA (just good architectural design on interfaces, and interfaces are nothing new), and Agile (working together on development is something that all good Architects have done forever anyway and now that real standards and management have been added to the common view of Agile it makes sense).
Real changes that I have watched with excitement over the time have been: HTML, XML (when XML first appeared in the 90's I thought it would change the face of IT, which it has), Web Services (because the bar was finally lowered for cross-platform and cross-technology communications).
Now, I am really excited about the changes that are brewing or appearing. There are, as far as I can see, a few big things with XML-like ramifications that are either here but haven't really been noticed or are quietly evolving just over the horizon, that will reshape the industry. Over the next few days I'm going to talk to introduce them here, along with why I think they'll be big. I encourage the very quiet readers of this blog to then join in for a change and discuss.

Re: When does Basil taste like Basil?
One thing to be wary of when buying a plant...........& this might seem a daft/obvious thing to say.............is to check that it IS actually a Basil plant you are buying! Labels can get swapped around when other customers read them & inadvertantly put them back in the wrong pot, & on several occasions I have come across people who have bought a pot in which the original plant has perished & a weed (very green & very healthy) has taken hold instead!!!!
If it's a food-plant you are buying, take nothing on trust or you could find what you have just purchased could make you very ill instead.
Obvious advice I know, but taste & smell the other food plants around the one you are buying to check that you are buying what you think you are! If yours tastes/smells different you have to ask yourself why?

Re: When does Basil taste like Basil?
Sounds like you have a hybrid gone south or a plant that is pretending to be basil. I recommend buying a plant from a nursery or even Trader Joe's. Trader Joe's gets really lovely basil plants in at Spring time. Smell it to be sure, the scent is unmistakable. Buy two, one for using right away and one to grow. Buy good sized healthy looking plants. Grow one in your garden (or in a lovely pot on your patio where the sun is most of the day) and use the other, keeping it in a sunny window. Allow the other one to go to seed and use the seeds for your next crop. My basil grew well into winter, until a frosty night killed it. Don't forget to pinch back (and use) the leaves on both plants so the plants can become fuller and stay healthy, otherwise they will become leggy.

Re: When does Basil taste like Basil?
Thank you for the info. I have bought a second plant and they both look good. I have not started to pick the leaves as yet but am getting close. Silly question, but do you pick the leaves from the underside closest to the dirt, or the outer leaves, or maybe it doesn't matter. Also, pick the leaf and stem or leave the stem?
Sorry for the basic questions but my 1st go round with herbs.

Re: When does Basil taste like Basil?
Hi Mark, it is really worth pinching out the tops as first choice for picking the leaves. Then new growth comes out both sides of the snip and your plant gets bigger and bushier.
I love how my first little harvest are just tiny leaves to add to a salad and then as the summer goes on a pick more and more until I am giving bunches away.
Ofcourse, the leaves that aren't at the top start complaining and yammer for attention by growing enormous! And you can add them to the harvest as you like!

Re: When does Basil taste like Basil?
Your basil lost its flavor because you either fertilized it, or grew it in soil that was fertilized before you brought it home in a bag. =O Thankfully, the folks at the garden store I shop at warned me of this when my purchase included several envelopes of herb seeds. Avoid packaged soil that says it will promote healthy flower growth - you're going to trim your herbs before they develop flowers, and keep trimming them so they don't go to seed. Plants concentrating on making seed will not use a lot of energy making new offshoots full of tasty leaves. Also, get enough seed to plant more than all-at-once so that you can have young healthy plants all season long. Good luck and happy cooking!

Re: When does Basil taste like Basil?
Thank you, the little herb garden in pots is doing well. I have been picking the basil as well as chives. I have a couple cherry tomatoe plants in pots, in stands, that I am going to try and teach to grow down instead of up, wish me luck!

Im a new bee keeper last year I bought a package and then caught a swarm to start my second hive. So I have two hives. The package hive has been very strong all year with lots of bees. The last time I was in it I had a super of brood with a queen excluder a full super of honey above that and a mostly full deep super on top. So I added a 4th deep super under the mostly full of honey one.
I havent been in the hive much when I did the last time probably 3 weeks ago I was getting stung a lot on the upper arms as I dont have a proper suit. So yesterday I checked my hive and I have brood in the top super that was mostly full of honey. The extra super below that that I added last time has been partly filled in and also has brood in it. The bottom box that was brood is being filled with honey now. Im guessing that I allowed the queen to get above the excluder.
How do I fix this and will I be able to harvest honey still?

This method will have you picking most locks in no time. If they aren't illegal in your state or it's part of your job (you better have proof....just saying), learn how to use bump keys.
Some cheap padlocks can be opened in a couple seconds using the jiggle method and as always, practice makes perfect.

Awesome art work
Just gonna drop these off.
I know...not really exciting. =P
Decided to do more female Pandaren stuff since I'm seeing facial markings pop up. The red panda version was actually from Duskdaimond, but I think she was actually opposed to it. Personally I would be okay with red panda markings on the Pandaren (as long as they don't go as far as making the female an actual red panda anthro). Variety is good.
The bottom four are red panda, albino, melanistic, leucistic, and inverted.
The second above melanistic was inspired by Chinese opera makeup, and the one above inverted is a simplified version of tanuki markings. :3
Did some male faces to mirror a couple of the female ones I did.
I also looked up more Chinese opera makeup and masks.
One, two, and three at the bottom were ref'd from:
And the last one was from google images.
(PLEASE NOTE: The bottom ones also apply to the females)
Thank you . I've just recently become active in art again, and I'm currently working on a League of Legends commission, but I'll be back to this thread in a week or two!
Damn this thread makes me happy and sad at the same time.
Those are just incredibly awesome and pretty, I wish I could do something like that.
Rachel, your faces look great!

More boring concept things. Hopefully when I'm done my pony adoptables I'll make more fun and colourful WoW things.
Uh oh, more stuff for the ever-growing Pandaren pile.
Anyways, just some examples of body types and and an overlap to show how the larger female fits the male.
Some body type sketches I've been working on in bits.
I'll hopefully have Honey done soon, but I have discovered that cute, chubby wrists and ankles are really hard to get right. :c
Just so you can get an idea of their heights, Tully is about 5'2".
You'll notice that even though Whinnie is larger than her daughter, Tully, her musculature isn't as defined as (older) Tully's. That's becauseWhinnie didn't have to work too hard to get that big, that's pretty well her normal figure.
Please note: Tully's lack of horns was a conscious decision during her creation. So they're not cut off, and she's not deformed, she simply has no horns. However, she does have the usual forehead plates.

Please do this for every model in the game, and then create a way to play with the models like action figures for me. Yep.
New rough sketches of the average male and female Northerner Draenei. (ref'd male from posemaniacs.com)
I'm pretty happy with these so far.
I've been working on my Northerns and Southerners a little bit as of late, so here's silly little speedpaint of an average female Southern Draenei.
Made her bald to show her tendrils off.
Decided that their most common colours would be dark red, dark blue, and dark purple. Uncommon would be dark green, dark teal, and dark orange.
Rarest is dark blue and red together, and through selective breeding (a.k.a vanity) it's restricted to those of royal blood.
'Ugly/Reject' colours are lime green, yellow, bright orange, pink. Pretty much anything too 'light.'
Because their horns are only for display and fighting, their rhinophores are inside their tendrils (Northerner rhinophores are underneath the horns/crests).
The female pictured on the left has her rhinophores 'at rest,' while the one on the right shows two of them 'active.'
-Pheromone/scent receptors
-Able to pick up vibrations in the air
I wish I could draw...I desperately want to get a tablet but can't afford it. My husband pulled out his old one but the pen is lost and I can't get it to work without it. So I'm stuck still attempting to learn to draw and color in Photoshop with just my mouse and to be frank, I'm awful at it.
This was my first attempt at something other than signatures/wallpapers/banners for the sig thread. I took the blood elf female render out of WMV and drew the hair and clothes on myself and attempted to paint over the body somewhat to smooth out the pixely parts.
Is this thread dead? O.o
