Watch Can We Help in high quality on iviewwatch on iview
When did words like nevertheless contract into one word? Barbara, NSW
What were seeing here are the effects of frequency. As linguists like Joan Bybee have shown, the regularity with which we use an expression can have a profound effect on its pronunciation. When we say something often, were in familiar territory and so we make short-cuts. We speed up and the transition between sounds becomes more fluent movements might even overlap. Individual words and strings of words that are commonly used typically shorten over time, Mistress to Mrs for instance. This is most obvious in formulaic expressions like greetings and leave takings. Ritualized strings like how do you do get reduced in this case to hi; God be with you to bye. Pairs or strings of words that are used frequently are also more likely to undergo pronunciation changes and reduce to one word the words become fused into a single chunk, just like the examples given here. Originally, nevertheless was written as three separate words, but with time we began to write them as one (with such expressions, there is always the dilemma when do you write them separately, when do you hyphenate and when do you write them solid). What typically happens then to these amalgamated words is that they start to reduce. Through use, the individual segments become more and more closely associated, and the boundaries between them get blurred. For instance, because was originally the longer expression by cause. These days, in normal rapid speech want to reduces to wanna and going to, gonna (of course, people arent too happy about writing these two examples as one word!). Similar things happen to the pronunciation of compounds like cupboard and forehead. Here the spelling preserves the original compound, but this isnt always the case. Only the real word enthusiast will be aware that the words daisy began life as a compound: early English days eye. Less familiar or less usual compounds wont show the same sort of reduction. Compare an infrequent word like handstroke, which usually retains the [d] with common usage handkerchief, which always loses it. Less usual postmaster typically keeps its [t] compared to more usual postman, which drops it.
Does it ever happen the other way? Not often. Language is, as the linguist Langacker once described, like a gigantic expression compacting machine. Only very occasionally do parts of words detach and establish themselves as independent words. For example, people sometimes talk about isms (a form of doctrine or theory) and ologies (an academic discipline or field of knowledge). The Irish language offers a very curious example of suffixes breaking free and turning into free-standing pronouns. But this is a rare event!
Whats the historical meaning/relevance of words like undertaker, mortician and funeral director? Boyd, Vic
This time what were seeing are the effects of euphemism. English undertaker once meant one who aids or assists; a helper (literally, someone who undertakes to do things; an example from John Wycliffs Bible of 1382 reads: Thou forsothe, Lord, art myn vndir-takere). As a general word, undertaker was then recruited as a euphemism for a person who carries out the arrangements for funerals (late 1600s) the most successful euphemisms are always the very vague general terms. The typical path that such ambiguous taboo terms take is that they eventually narrow to the taboo sense alone; undertaker is now the direct term for a person arranging funerals. A replacement euphemism is then required and funeral director fits the bill. What often happens with euphemisms like these is that they start off requiring some sort of modifying word, in this case funeral (in funeral undertaker/director), and then the modifier is dropped as the phrase ceases to be euphemistic. The expression mortician came into American English in the late 1800s. It was created from the Latin English speakers have always relied on Latin or French to supply good camouflage language! As these three examples illustrate, what taboo does is create a chain of ever changing replacements. As the euphemistic magic fades and new generations of speakers grow up using the expression as a direct term, so a substitute has to be found. And the more severe the taboo, the longer the chain of euphemistic replacements will be.

Based on a Jewish folk tale adapted by playwright John Lazarus, this animated short tells the story of Shmendrik, a simpleton living in a small Polish village. Weary of daily life in his native Chelm, Shmendrik sets out on a quest for knowledge that brings him to a new Chelm, a place eerily reminiscent of his old Chelm. An amusing take on our tendency to romanticize what we don't have.

I enjoyed watching it. Great art work, characters, good flow and tempo. The story was interesting in the sense that it could have many meanings like - all you need is a new perspective on your situation. The innocence of village life was captured well and gave it the beauty of a simple life. Well done.ssomjee, 16 Mar 2016

Mesut Ozil believes Germany are good enough to take out Euro2012.
The Real Madrid star has been a key part of the Die Mannschaft outfit which has swept all before them on the way to the semi-final where they take on Italy in Warsaw on Thursday.
With that tasty fixture on the horizon, Ozil is confident that Joachim Low's German side can make it through to the July 1 final in Kiev and beat either Spain or Portugal in the decider.
"We knew before the tournament that we have a strong team," he told UEFA.com. "We believe in ourselves and the goal is to return to Germany with the title.
"That's why we are here and I am convinced we can do it.
"We are concentrating on the here and now. We are looking forward to the semi, which will be very difficult. But we are confident we can beat anybody.
"Italy are surprisingly strong. You could also see that in the very good match they had against world champions Spain. I think they deserve to be in the semi-finals. They are compact, very strong, but in general we look only at ourselves.
"If we play as we can, I am convinced we will beat Italy."

Hi guys, been away for awhile since I gave the Grandson the CR-V...He called me this morning,and advised he had a "clunking" noise when turning.
Went over and test drove it.Finally was able to duplicate the issue.It seems to be coming from the rear end,and only in tight turns.I can "feel" a slight jerking when it makes the noise.
I would have figured(with what he described) that it was on the front.
I have been out of the CR-V business for so long,a diagnosis is hard to come up with...Need some advice.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

It would take a day just to look over all of them. Some of them are really good resources.

Nice list — although logo design is equal parts talent, dog and pony show, experience, snake oil salesman and personality rather than a creative project like a normal person would expect

This is a lot of logos! There is a lot of great stuff to learn in here. Sad that there will be some that come here just to find logos to rip-off and copy.

@Chad yes, sometimes you can do anything to beat your personal traffic results but all I meant that it's all about the quality, not quantity as some of the entries are simply valueless. No offense for an author – just a simple notion.

Very good collection of logo design resources! It's really wonderful for those of us who are really passionate about corporate identity design. Good job!
I also try to explain in my own website (eserrano.com) the whole logo design process (although it is not so visual as a step-by-step tutorial, it helps to understand the underlying symbolysm and meaning behind a logo design).
Because a good logo design is much more than an appealing graphic ;-)

This is a great post thanks!
Logo design is such a creative field, with virtually endless possibilities. I think its fantastic to be able to see how other people work out clients ideas and turn them into a branding strategy.
It would be very interested to see how other people manage a project from start to finish and what/when things get shown to the client. I've got my own style of doing things, and my clients always get to view there logos on Presentation Boards, this is a great list at focus on how to create one and the creative processes involved. Prehaps as a future project you can show the steps and processes involved in creating a Branding Identity from start to finish including resources shown to the client?
At any rate top post!

Hi friends!
How is everyone? Ready for school to be out? Ready for summer?
Me too!! Our kids have 2 more days! Oh boy, has this month been BUSY!
I just had to share these photos I took last month…of gorgeous white & lime green hydrangeas. But I have to admit, I didn't grow these. They are from a friends' yard.
She said I could come get all I wanted :)
This zinc bucket is from a shop in Texas. It's very unique and has old wooden handles.
I really wish the blooms would last longer…hated to see them droop and throw them out.
But I sure did enjoy them while they lasted. I could photograph flowers all day long :)
And guess what came in the mail!! My copy of the latest Prairie Style Magazine!
Remember, back in January, Fifi and Mark came to photograph our home?
It's a gorgeous issue! I have seen the magazine on stands everywhere!
If you haven't gotten a copy yet, hurry and get one soon!
We were so excited to see that our kids and English bulldog made it into the feature :)

TMI! Kim Kardashian Reveals She's So Hairy, Has To Use Laser Hair Removal Everywhere!
Whoa! Kim gets hairless and poses like glam old Hollywood star Ava Gardner, plus reveals what she's MOST humiliated about!
According to Kim Kardashian, she's as smooth as a baby's bottom! The 29-year-old Armenian beauty is Allure's September cover girl and sat down with the mag to discuss a super awkward subject — hair removal! Now we know why the gorgeous brunette always looks so amazing in a string bikini!
"I am obsessed with laser hair removal," she confesses. "Arms, bikini, legs, underarms — my entire body is hairless!"
The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star says there's one more thing she can't live without: makeup! Her dad even enrolled her in beauty school when she was just 14.
"Makeup is my life," she says. "[I went to beauty school] to learn how to apply makeup properly, so I wouldn't have too much on or look crazy."
Kim went on to reminisce about her late father Robert Kardashian, who passed away in 2003 from Esophageal cancer.
"I feel lazy when I'm not working," she says. "I learned all my business sense from my dad. He always believed in me, and I think the last thing he said to me before he passed away was, 'I know you're gonna be OK. I'm not worried about you.'"
The E! star definitely has a few skeletons in her closet, like her infamous sex tape with ex-boyfriend Ray J from 2007. But Kim doesn't want to look back; she wants to set a good example.
"Not my most proud moment, it was humiliating. But now let's move on," she says about the tape. "Not that I don't think it's no one's business, but I think I've done a good job with replacing negative things with positive things."
We do too, Kim — and we're ready to focus on the positive things you're doing with your life!

Hope for Zimbabwe through Education
The Petra Schools in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe, provide an education of as high a quality and as low a cost as possible to about 1,200 children aged 5 to 19. The Petra Schools have a Christian ethos, and welcome children without regard to race, colour, gender or religion. They have a priority of providing places for those with special educational or financial needs. The purpose of the Petra Schools is "The Formation of Christian Character." ways to help
A New Role for Chris Hingley
This year Chris has begun a new phase of his Christian ministry, which is already proving the most challenging, but also the most encouraging and fruitful, of his entire ministry. He is no longer Rector of the Petra Schools, but has the new role of Overseas Ambassador, which includes raising support and building overseas links for Petra. Free from the administrative burden and the stress of having overall responsibility for running the Petra Schools and Whitestone Chapel, he is now able to follow God's original call to him to be a pastor and teacher.
He is still working very closely with Petra and Whitestone, but emphasizing pastoral availability to meet anyone from the church, schools or community, who would like a listening ear and someone to talk to. For example, twice a week he sits under a tree at Petra where the students know that anyone can come to talk to him in confidence. A constant stream of teenagers and children come with questions that are personal and relational, and very often honest and searching inquiries about what it means to believe in God and live a life that pleases him.
Chris is also continuing to preach and speak regularly at the schools and church, to lead Bible study groups, to offer special courses, and to run the youth group called Seven Ups and the annual Aslan Camp, which minister to hundreds of children and teenagers each year.
While Petra and Whitestone are totally supportive of this, they simply do not have the resources, in an unprecedented time of economic stress in Zimbabwe, to give financial support. From now on, Chris will need to raise his own personal support to enable his ministries to continue, as well as support for Petra and Whitestone.

Letter from Zimbabwe
It is always sad when one of our Petra families has to leave. One of our Form 2 girls, who has never missed my Wednesday evening Bible study over the last two years, is emigrating tomorrow because of her father's serious illness. But it was enormously encouraging to read her letter this morning, and realize that what God gave her at Petra will always be part of her life. Here is an extract from her letter:
"During my time at Petra I always looked forward to a corny joke on a Friday morning in assembly. I woke up on Monday ready to go and have a blast singing my heart out to the Lord with all of my friends. I wanted to go to house devotions to hear about how we could improve our faith and etiquette as young men and women. read more
Update from Petra School
I always look forward to taking our Form 1 pupils to the Matopo Hills over three days after their first month in High School, as I did two weeks ago. It gives me a chance to get to know them, and them time to have fun climbing the kopjes, swimming in streams, getting down on their hands and knees to explore the life in the rock pools, looking for game (we saw zebras, impala, kudu, warthog, klipspringer and baboons), and getting wet and muddy sliding down a rock slide.
One of the Form 1 boys, David, greeted me with a huge grin, and told me how thrilled he is to be at Petra High School. It is a kind of miracle that David (not his real name) was there at all. I got to know him when he came on the Aslan Camp three years ago, but since then his life has been disastrous. His mother and step father went through a very angry divorce, in which David was mixed up because his mother accused his step father of physically abusing him. After the divorce he went to live with his grandparents, because his mother has a wild social life and took no interest in him. The grandparents got impatient with the mother's giving no support at all, so they dumped the boy at his mother's lawyer. The mother, forced to take David in, left him alone most evenings, often in the dark because we have daily power cuts. David was especially distressed that he could never complete home work. read more

Last night we posted that parking meter enforcement is suspended for Thursday and Friday, alongside Alternate Side Parking regulations. That was incorrect. Parking meter enforcement begins today, although Alternate Side Parking remains suspended.
Yes, despite that fact that commercial streets remain lined with dead cars, killed by the flood's salty waters, apparently meter rules are back in effect. So you'll have to begin paying for those spots.
We've reached out to Department of Transportation about this and are seeing if enforcement will be waived for Zone A areas. We'll report when we hear back.
UPDATE (10:03 a.m.): Apparently DOT is sending mixed messages. The info above was sent out via e-mail last night. Someone just showed us this contradicting info on the DOT's website. We're still awaiting confirmation from DOT.

You're reviewing: Women's Hormone Support
- Relationship saver Review by Gena
I just want to praise this supplement again. For 8 months I have had raging pms so bad in fact I'd tell my partner to leave every 4 weeks. For a week we could not talk or make decisions and I'd be a blubbering mess all the time. This is my second cycle on them and my periods due in 2 days and I feel amazing just a little on edge but I'm reasonable not unreasonable, erratic, angry, and hateful like I was previously. The GP wanted me to take anti depressants to help me. So glad I tried this before went down that route

- Clinicians Women's Hormone Support Review by Happier camper
I'm on my first bottle and I believe I can honestly say I have noticed a difference. I do take them with a Zinc supplement and sometimes a B-Complex vitamin if I'm busy. My moods are more balanced and my last cycle was not so awful. Will purchase another to see me through the next cycle, I hope I have finally found the right balance for me.
(Posted on 12/01/17)
- Wonderful for Menopause Review by Felicia
Suffering from hot flushes / night sweats is to be avoided (naturally) where possible - especially in the heat of summer! This product is great and really does work for me. No side effects and a nice small pill to swallow. Definitely would recommend!
(Posted on 18/11/16)
- Affordable and effective. Review by Gayle
Great product for balancing out those hormonal mood swings to more manageable proportions.
(Posted on 27/10/16)
- Made a real difference. Review by Kate
I was suffering from constantly sore, heavy breasts and bloating - within days of using this product my breasts felt normal again and my bloating was greatly reduced. Ive also lost weight with very little effort. Am about to purchase my third instalment of these and would not be without them now.

- Great for Endometriosis and balancing hormones Review by Karina
I have suffered from endometriosis for many years with bloating, moody swings, tender breasts, heavy bleeding, pain. Since I started taking Clinicians Women's Hormone Support, my oestrogen levels have balanced out and all my symptoms have just about disappeared. I still have endo, however I can now manage it.

- Great for breast tenderness Review by Daina
My doctor recommended DIM for ongoing breast tenderness and pain. This product is great and has definitely helped so far. Had terrible headaches for the first week, but persevered, and they went away. My hair is also let greasy and I don't have night sweats anymore:)
(Posted on 19/08/16)
- Helps to regulate my mood swings and night sweats Review by Joanna
Heaven sent product for women with PMS, mood swing issues, night sweats or any hormonal fluctuations. Strongly recommend it. Have been taking it on and off for about 3 years!
(Posted on 23/06/16)
- Can't live without it! Review by Kerara
I've been taking DIM, along with Evening Primrose Oil, for about six months. It's helped clear up my acne and I no longer suffer from severe breakouts. My period used to come every 21 days with horrible PMS, now it comes every 26 days, with a only little bit of PMS! I'm significantly less moody, less bloated and have lost weight.
I have came off DIM once in the last six months for a few weeks and all my symptoms described above returned with a vengeance, I felt horrible!
It did take a few months to really feel full benefits of DIM. I take it with a milk thistle supplement as it is hard on the liver (due to the liver processing the excess estrogen that DIM is flushing out of the body) but I highly highly recommend it and can't go without it! Its literally changed my life!
(Posted on 23/06/16)
- It works! Review by WMZ
I've been taking DIM for 4 months now, along with Vitex for 6 months. I'm in my mid 40s and started having trouble with breakouts for the first time in my life - worse than the teen years by far. Also increasingly heavy monthly flows. After 5+ years of progressively worse skin and cycles, I was sliding into deep frustration. My doctor wanted me to take birth control. One dermatologist said I had rosacea (though my gut told me that wasn't it either). Also wanted me to solve it with prescription meds. My instinct said it was hormonal - so I tried a number of things to support my liver (to help remove excess hormones), etc. Finally found a new GP who supported my decision not to try to solve with birth control or other prescription drugs. He was also the first doctor to run blood tests to check my hormones and I had extremely high estrogen levels. I'd started Vitex in December 2015 on my own. He recommended I add in DIM around Feb. It took about 3 months (since DIM, 6 months total), but my skin is finally back to normal. I can't believe it after 5+ years of near constant breakouts (not just cyclical). I'm still doing things to support my liver (sulfur rich foods and milk thistle supplements). I also recommend Honevo masks to help settle the skin. I'm no longer using it, but it made a huge difference when I was still breaking out all the time a few months ago. Had my estrogen checked again recently and it had dropped by half! Still high, but it's trending down (dropped by over half in 2+ months). So relieved!!!

BigAppleSoccer.com Editor Michael Lewis will be inducted into the Rochester Lancers Wall of Fame at Saturday's home game against the Baltimore Blast at the Blue Cross Arena at the Rochester War Memorial.
Lewis is among six inductees in this year's induction class. He joins former players Tito Laurini, Mauro Felipe, Charlie Mitchell and Nelson Cupello and ex-Lancers announcer Wayne Fuller.
Less than a year out of college, Lewis was assigned to cover the Lancers, who then competed in the North American Soccer League in 1975. He covered the Lancers through the 1980 season, when the team dropped out of the NASL.
Lewis considered his time in Rochester an "experience and memories I would not have traded for the world."
The current-day Lancers perform in the Major Indoor Soccer League.

I'm not brave enough to shop on Black Friday anymore. The older I get the more I get crowdaphobic! I can't concentrate on anything except escaping!
Shopping online now - that's something else!
Sometimes I work the day after Thanksgiving. Twice I've headed to the mall after work and it was practically desserted. I'm not interested in the standing-in-line, break-the-door-down deals at midnight or 4 a.m. or whatever. But many of the all day sale items were available in the evening and it was easy! Other years I've shopped online that day and have saved some money on specific gifts I needed to find. I make the kids give me their Christmas list before Thanksgiving for just that reason.
Let's see....Black Friday....isn't that the day that DGD'S are supposed to be out and about, and their DGM's just give them a list? :)
I have always avoided the stores on Black Friday. If I don't know how cheap things might be, it doesn't bother me. I give gift cards to grandkids and they love them.
My best friend passed away from cancer in 2003. We had a tradition, since our children were little, of doing the Black Friday sales. It was the one day we spent together without kids and husbands. Over the years that we did this we had some hilarious things happen while we were shopping. One year we were at Walmart and I had finished my shopping but she wasn't finished. I left to go to Sears to purchase a major item I wanted and was going to return to pick her up later. When I returned to Walmart, there were police cruisers and fire trucks everywhere. I had no clue what was happening. There were people standing everywhere but I could not find her. I drove down every parking row looking for her. Finally, I heard someone calling my name, it was my friend. She had gotten in a vehicle with some other ladies who gave her shelter from the cold (it was freezing outside). Then she explained that immediately after I left they announced over the intercom that everyone needed to exit the store because there had been a bomb threat! We had lots of laughs over that. I still miss my friend, more so this time of the year. Now, my daughter and daughter-in-law tag along.
No way am I going out in that mess. I would rather swim with a bunch of piranhas than deal with those crowds.
I will wait till Cyber Monday or whatever they call it.
If JoAnn's has Warm and Natural batting again for a really good price then that is all I will go out for.
I won't need to shop for anything then, I'm done. That day, I'm ready to feel the love of Christmas, not the greed that people get into after Thanksgiving.
I made my brother go with me last year-The only one we went to was Menards. My 2 favorite places to browse and shop are Hancocks and Menards.They both make my heart beat faster when I get to go

I have nothing bad to say about him. they said it would be 15days before they could look at the motor and that was fine. well after 20 days they said it would be done. well I call them and they say well we have some small things to take care of and it would be the next day that my car would be ready. well needless to say 40 days later it still wasnt ready. I called them just about evey day after that. they keep giving m the run around on my car. well I got.the car back and by the time I got home all the check engine lights were on and a new rench light. I took it back in. well I call them back a couple days later and they say my transmission is going out. I have never had a transmission problem on the car. not one problem but 5 things. its funny that it has a problem only when I take it to get fixed at a transmission shop. its been 2months and I still cannot get a answer on my car. what was quoted at 1800$ turned into 5000$.

Kreilinger, Valentin (2012) A veto of the European parliament against ACTA would be a way for MEPs to reassert themselves against member states. LSE European Politics and Policy (EUROPP) Blog (16 Apr 2012) Blog Entry.
Download (160Kb) | Preview
Recent months have seen protests across Europe against the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA), which seeks to protect intellectual property. Valentin Kreilinger argues that the European Parliament now has an opportunity to take into account the views of Europe's citizens and veto the agreement, meaning that the agreement would have to be renegotiated.

The WCC held its annual tip-off event in Los Angeles on Thursday and to the surprise of no one Gonzaga was picked to win the conference title in the preseason poll. Perhaps the only surprise was the margin – Gonzaga received eight of 10 first-place votes, BYU and Saint Mary's one apiece. I thought BYU, with a strong backcourt, would have pulled down at least another first-place vote or two.

Idaho's paychecks for these money games have gotten progressively bigger. In 2007, Arizona paid $600,000. In 2010, Nebraska dished out $800,000. Last year, LSU wrote Idaho a check for $925,000. And later this season, Florida State will pay $950,000 to the Vandals. The guaranteed payout from Ole Miss is $850,000.
Asked about playing money games this week, UI coach Paul Petrino said, "That's what helps pay for all the other programs. You need a couple of 'em a year to help pay your budget. So if we're just going to be flat-out honest, that's the most important thing."
Next year Idaho will play at Florida for $975,000. In 2015, the Vandals will play at Auburn and at USC. The guarantee for the USC game is $1.1 million, slightly above what Auburn is paying.

Washington State still held its weekly Thursday Night Football practice at the regular time.
Linebacker Nathan Hundeby (University) was the night's most impressive player. The freshman from Spokane Valley had seven tackles to go with an interception of Tyler Bruggman and a sack of Connor Ennis. It was a rough day for Bruggman, who finished the day 7 of 14 with two interceptions.
• We had a chance to speak today with Washington State men's basketball coach Ken Bone, who provided an update on the status of Jordan Railey and Danny Lawhorn, who were each suspended indefinitely by Bone for violating team rules. Lawhorn has since left the team but Railey has returned and is practicing with the Cougars.
Bone said that Railey has done "everything we've asked of him," although he wouldn't yet say whether or not the center will be available to play in WSU's season-opening exhibition game against Central Washington University on Nov. 1. Railey – who transferred to WSU from Iowa State – is known for his shot-blocking ability on defense, and provides crucial front-court depth for the Cougars.
Bone said that Lawhorn is back with his family in Connecticut. The WSU coach is fielding calls and emails from other coaches inquiring about the point guard, and Bone hopes to help him find another school to play for.

The Power of a Good Electronic Grade Book
Well, we made it!! Brightspace has hit our campus and we've survived. With almost 25,000, yes that is thousand, courses moved from uLearn to Brightspace and several hundred faculty and staff trained, we at the Exchange are breathing a collective sigh of relief. We've had some hiccups, but overall the transition has been a smooth one.
I've been through several major learning management transitions, I think this one made 5, and this has by far been the smoothest transition. The biggest take-away I got from this transition is that faculty/instructors didn't realize what features the old system had. In my series of blog posts I'm going to try to help with that by highlighting different features our Brightspace system has.
The Grades feature in Brightspace is amazingly versatile, and it's easy to use. There are a couple features I really love. The first is, if you set the grade book up correctly, there are very few times you will need to add a formula to calculate the grade. D2L will do it all for you. It will even allow you to do percentages and drop lowest or highest scores for papers, quizzes/exams, etc. automatically!
The other Grades feature I really like is the Grading Schemes. In this area you set the percentages for what constitutes an A, A-, B, B+, etc. This is nice because students can see scores as well as the grade it equates to and, when you go to enter scores into GoSOLAR at the end of the semester the letter grade calculation is already done for you.
The other feature I like in the Grading Schemes area is that you can color code your percentages. This gives both you and the student a visual representation of how things are going. For me, with that visual aid, it's a lot easier to see how students are doing.
Tip of the day: If you can't see the grades in the Grades area, use the Grades Settings button on the left hand side of the Grades menu. Once in there, click on Points Grade and click Save.

It's the rumble of air-ships in the distance, the shivers of coal and pipe smoke. It's the rattle of pistons and the slow turns of gears. Steam punk -- a literary genre established in 1987 -- is a movement unlike any other. Within it stirs elements of fantasy, science fiction and history, allowing it to serve as a speculation on what could have been, had the Victorian era developed differently.
As of 2011, it has began to invade the public's awareness. Steam punk devotees are offering this whimsical -- and occasionally wild -- form of fashion to their every day lives. Trends have appeared, styles have been shaped, and the result is a look that is thoroughly one-of-a-kind:
Simple Foundations
It's an assumption of excess: steam punk ensembles are thought to be collections of endless layers and designs, the tangle of pinstripes. Such an assumption is not quite true, however. The principles of this movement are luxury and functionality, and the garments reflect this.
Foundational elements (such as tunics, coveralls, blouses, trousers and bustled skirts) are often simple. These pieces are intended for comfort and embody the workman sensibilities of the genre. Favored fabrics include cotton, linen and leather. Styles also offer a decidedly Victorian appeal, with modesty preserved.
Bold Details
The yeoman dedication to practicality is seen in all steam punk costumes. However, there is also a sense of whimsy displayed in all details. Cogs and clockwork, the precision of a pocket watch: this is a movement defined by all things unusual. All outfits are unique, reflecting their creators' personalities, but typical trends include sword-canes, goggles, elaborate time-pieces, parasols and fingerless gloves. Rich fabrics and metallic finishes are appropriate. Consider copper, bronze and brushed nickel to add authenticity (as well as ensure durability).
Class Distinctions
The Victorian age was a shaped to revolutions -- industrial changes, political reforms and the blurring of social classes (with individuals scrambling through the hierarchy). Steam punk, however, tends to offer more distinct designs. Outfits reflect individuals and their claimed careers: explorers, botanists, physicians, magicians, coal-miners, soldiers and more are all carefully exemplified. This is due to the fantastical nature of the genre. Wearers represent characters rather than ideals.
Constant Reinvention
The quest for knowledge is relentless -- and all steam punk accessories allow that quest to be accomplished a little more easily. Items are meant to evolve; technology is supposed to change. This is the belief that propels this philosophy, and individuals wishing to follow the trends must adopt new designs. Computers can be offered wooden frames and brass keys. Bicycles can be modified with copper components. Simple glasses can be shaped to powerful magnifiers (with goggle-eyed appearances), and lamps can flicker like Tesla coils. The intention is to reinvent what already exists...and make it better.
Steam punk is a movement that can't be denied -- and, of course, why would you wish to try?

According to Robert Williams, a co-worker of O'Neal's at Turner Studios, for whom O'Neal is an NBA analyst, the 15-time All-Star "ran out of a room and hit me with a tackle punch to the back knocking me down and falling on top of me injuring my neck and back," the police report says.
Williams said Turner Security was made aware of the incident within a day.
"The investigation was initially handled by the zone and as that investigation deepened, it was transferred (to) the complex case squad," Atlanta police Sgt. Greg Lyon said, according to WSB TV in Atlanta. "At the conclusion of their investigation, we'll have their findings and we'll go forth from there, whether charges will be filed, whether it (will) be reviewed by the DA's Office."

Working women '06 stats
- 70 million women, or about 60 percent of the 118 million women aged 16 or older in the U.S., were part of the work force
- Women accounted for 46 percent of the U.S. work force
- Median weekly wages for women with full-time, salaried positions were $600. That's about 81 percent of men's median earnings, which were $743. For workers aged 16 to 24, women earned an average $395 a week, and men earned $418.
- In 2007, the most common occupation for women was secretary or administrative assistant - women made up 96.7 percent of that job force. Other leading occupations for women included registered nurses (91.7 percent), elementary and middle school teachers (80.9 percent), child care workers (94.6 percent) and cashiers (75.6 percent).

What: "The Glass Ceiling: Shattered or Galvanized" with Donna Howell, presented by New Frontiers for Girls and Women
When: Noon Thursday
Where: Rex's American Grill and Bar, in the Holiday Inn
Cost: TBD
Call: 879-9226
Steamboat Springs There's been progress for women in the professional world since the 1980s, said Donna Howell, executive director of the Yampa Valley Housing Authority. There just hasn't been enough.
"There's been some progress, but not significant progress. There are certainly more women CEOs and presidents, but the percentage is very small compared to men," Howell said, describing the topic of a talk she'll give later this week.
Howell will outline the evolution of women in the work force Thursday with "The Glass Ceiling: Shattered or Galvanized," as part of the "Women, Wealth and Wisdom" series hosted by New Frontiers for Girls and Women. The organization, now in its 10th year, started when the Women's Foundation of Colorado broke down a community economic indicators report by gender.
"We found that single women with one child or two children weren't actually being paid a livable wage here in Routt or Moffat County," said Linda Hamlet, a founding board member for New Frontiers.
"Knowing that we had some really good local issues with statistical backing, our mission statement (became) improving economic self-sufficiency for girls and women," Hamlet said. New Frontiers offers programs for school-aged girls on self-empowerment and financial literacy, as well as a lecture series for adults.
Hamlet and Howell said the "glass ceiling" remains a relevant political issue and is one that could be combated with education on the characteristics and strategies of women who succeed in the corporate world.
"It's just something that I've been interested in for most of my career and something that I think is timely," Howell said.
Registration closes today for Howell's talk, as well as the 10th annual Girls to Women Conference, hosted by New Frontiers. The full-day event aimed at eighth-grade girls is scheduled for April 8 and will focus on possible career paths from communications to catering and health to hospitality, as well as offer workshops on healthy lifestyle choices, self-esteem and relationships.
With an average attendance of 130 girls and 100 community volunteers, the workshop stays true to New Frontiers' original goal - to empower and enrich Routt County women financially, mentally and physically.
"It's an ongoing problem today - it's very hard to have a livable wage in a resort community," Hamlet said about wage disparities.
"We really didn't want the curse of the Yampa Valley to be that you couldn't work and live here."

Your character can also make actual gestures, which change depending on both their race and gender. Or, you can plug in a USB keyboard. When writing messages of your own from here, however, you set who can see your text - just your party, or everyone in the area, for example.
The monk job doesn't have much HP or strength, but is great at healing. They can carry sticks, spears and clubs, and some of them can absorb a foe's HP. Like Dragon Quest IX however, you can change your job. Go to Dharma's Shrine and visit the branch office to change to one of the other five main jobs, and skills you learned that are not specific to one job, will carry over. If you wish to switch back to a certain job, you'll be at the same level as when you switched from that job previously.
Square Enix also showed off even more new and returning enemies for the game. You'll find new screens of these, the monk class and the communication options (yes, gestures too) all in the gallery below. Dragon Quest X Online for the Wii releases in Japan next year and its Wii U date has yet to be announced.

[VulnWatch] Unreal engine: results of my research
From: Auriemma Luigi (firstname.lastname@example.com)
Date: 02/05/03
- Previous message: GreyMagic Software: "[VulnWatch] Sniffing Opera's Tracks (GM#006-OP)"

Date: Wed, 5 Feb 2003 12:58:07 +0000 From: Auriemma Luigi <email@example.com> To: email@example.com
After almost 3 months, I have finally decided to release the huge
advisory/paper about bugs founded in the Unreal engine and all the relative
code for the vulnerabilities exploitation (plus some tools that I have
written during the reversing of the engine).
The link for get the english advisory is:
And this is the link for the italian version:
The games interested by the vulnerabilities are really a lot and the
following is a list of games based on Unreal engine and that have
implemented its network engine:
- Star Trek: The Next Generation: Klingon Honor Guard
- Unreal
- The Wheel of Time
- Deus Ex
- Mobile Forces
- Rune
- Unreal Tournament
- Hired Guns
- Navy Seals
- TNN Outdoor Pro Hunter
- Werewolf
- X-Com: Alliance
- Adventure Pinball
- America's Army
- Unreal Tournament 2003
- future games (if the developers will not use a fixed
Unreal engine) like DeusEx2, Duke Nukem Forever,
Postal 2, Thief III and XIII just for example
The following is a very quick list of the bugs I have found:
1] Unreal engine doesn't have an handshake between client and server,
so an attacker can create DoS, DDoS and bounce attacks with spoofed
UDP packets.
2] Unreal engine uses challenge keys to identify each match but, I
don't know why, seems that the server doesn't really manage the
keys in the client's answers and furthermore it doesn't make other
checks to avoid an attacker easily adding faked players to the
3] The Unreal engine has problems managing negative long numbers
(used for specify the size of data).
- If an attacker use negative numbers in network packets, the Unreal
server will allocate an amount of RAM that is equal to the number
without the sign or crash if the amount of bytes is greater than
the available memory.
- If the attacker uses package files (the maps for example) he can
easily execute code on the machine that launch the file, because
the bug used in package file allows the attacker to overwrite the
EIP register and upload all his code (no size limitations) in
4] Problems with Unreal URLs (unreal://...)
Unfortunally there are no patches at the moment because (as everyone can
understood) Epic Games after almost 3 months has not taken seriously these
problems and I am sorry for have waited too much time for release the
documents (Bugtraq timeout is less than a week and generally I wait maximum
1 month; 3 months are really too too much!)
