Colt is axing more than 200 staff as the business-focused telecoms firm moves faster into growth areas such as cloud computing and IT and reduces involvement in "legacy" voice and data services.
The 5000-strong group will take an exceptional, one-off charge of up to €33 million (£26.8 million), which should save up to €27 million a year from 2014.
Chief executive Rakesh Bhasin said "economic headwinds" in southern Europe were part of the reason to make the changes, but he stressed he was only "accelerating" existing plans as the demands of corporate clients change.
"What we're seeing in this economic environment is that customers need more and more data," explained Bhasin.
Many of his clients are in financial services and use Colt's networks for trading and storage.
"The amount of data that needs to be stored because of regulation continues to increase quite dramatically," he said.
As well as cutting "legacy" jobs, Bhasin is investing in new roles and staff retraining in growth areas.
"We will have revenue growth this year for the first time in many years," he said.

A recent comment on the IE Blog made it pretty apparent that not everybody is aware of Microsoft's efforts around security. Michael Howard has mentioned the Security Development Lifecyle before, but in case you don't want to read the entire document on MSDN, here's a quick introduction on the basics of what happens:
People need to be trained about security issues before they can effectively design, write, test, or document a software product. I am sure that some readers might chuckle to themselves here and make a snide remark about how "Everybody should know about buffer over-runs (BOs) by now!" but there are two things I want to say about that:
1) It's better to incorrectly assume your employees do not know about BOs and waste a few hours training them on it than it is to incorrectly assume they do know about BOs and have them write insecure code.
2) If you think BOs are the only kinds of security issues to be concerned about, you have a lot of learning ahead of you, young reader.
Training covers such things as poor use of cryptographic functions (or use of known-weak cryptographic functions), SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), integer overflows, etc. and that's just the "basics" that everyone attends. Then we have advanced courses on topics such as fuzzing, threat modelling, and mitigation techniques that people can choose to "specialise" in.
Once you know about security issues and the kinds of threats that are "out there", you need to build secure architectures and use existing technology in a secure fashion to avoid introducing design-level flaws in your software. We do this by having high-level design reviews with subject matter experts (SMEs) for larger, riskier features; and by performing an in-depth threat modelling process (it's not just a threat model document!) for pretty much every component. (Clearly there is very little value to threat modelling the "Bold" toolbar button in Microsoft Word, so some things get by without a complete TM 🙂 ).
This is where I personally spend most of my time — being an SME for technologies such as Internet Explorer hosting, ActiveX controls, managed code security, and so forth. I participate in a lot of design reviews for products all over Microsoft (pretty much everyone does something with a web browser these days 🙂 ) and in particular I spend a significant amount of time with the IE team doing threat analysis on features and making sure we've got all our bases covered with respect to security.
We have well-trained architects, well-trained program managers, well-trained developers, well-trained testers, and some great analysis tools to help us avoid, detect, and remove common code-level security flaws such as BOs or the use of "bad" (hard-to-use-correctly) APIs. We also do code reviews, threat-model-driven testing, and perform other activities to prevent (or remove) security defects from the code before it is released to customers (or in some cases, before it is ever checked in). Run-time analysis tools such as AppVerifier also help to catch potentially "bad" API usage or point out least-privilege violations (for example, asking for KEY_ALL_ACCESS when you only need KEY _READ).
One little-know fact is that Microsoft has done a lot of work to help deprecate the "bad" APIs commonly found in C and C++ runtimes and to replace them with less "dangerous" versions that can help prevent certain classes of bugs. For example, there is the "Safe String" library in Windows that is used both internally and externally to replace unbounded string copies (eg, strcpy) with bounded copies (StringCchCopy). What's more, the Visual C++ team has new "security enhanced" versions of many common CRT functions, and Microsoft is working to make these new functions a part of the ANSI C standard.
Microsoft innovating in security and working with standards bodies and sharing technology with the world? Who would have thunk it? 🙂
You can read more about the new libraries in MSDN Magazine.
After we have designed, built, tested, documented, etc. the product, it gets released to customers. We try very hard to strike a balance between usability and security with our products — the "Secure by Default" mantra — and it's often a very hard thing to do. How do you make your product usable enough so that most customers can do what they want without getting frustrated or calling Product Support Services, yet still keep the less-used or higher-risk features turned off if they are not needed? IIS 6 in Windows 2003 was clearly a big step in one direction, and it's payed off big-time. But such an approach wouldn't work with, say, MSN Messenger where it's pretty clear that if you install the product you need it to talk on the network and receive messages from your buddies.
Despite all our hard work, security issues are still found in released products and this is where the Microsoft Security Response Centre (MSRC) comes in. The MSRC team is dedicated to receiving and investigating reports of security issues in Microsoft products, and then working with product teams to find, fix, and release patches for them on our now-famous "Patch Tuesday". Patching on a predictable basis is something that Microsoft did because customers requested it, and whilst initially Microsoft got a lot of heat for "trying to make it look like we had fewer issues", many in the industry have come to realise that it's "the right thing to do" and at least one analyst expects others to follow suit (eventually).
So that's it, in a nutshell. We've said for a long time that "Security is an Industry Problem" and I would love it if every vendor took a long, hard look at their development process and adopted something similar to the SDL. There will always be customers who choose not to run Microsoft software, but we still want them to be as secure as possible on their platform of choice.
I did a brief search on Apache's official site, and they ask that patches have performance optimisations but there is no mention of having a security review or any minimum standards for security. That's not to say people aren't performing security reviews of Apache, but the "many eyes" don't help if they're (i) not looking at the important bits or (ii) don't know what to look for.
Microsoft has a publicly-documented process for designing, building, releasing, and supporting software "that needs to withstand malicious attack," and although software will always have bugs we're definitely showing improvements.
Does your software vendor of choice have such a process? Or only rhetoric?

So why do Catholics think we are bashing them when we are demonstrating a compelling love to show them how to escape the eternal lake of fire? It appears to be a pathetically weak defensive ploy to hide their lack of biblical understanding. By calling someone a name, they are released from any obligation to consider Scripture and evaluate truth. In this way, they can proudly dismiss any further confrontation or correction.

Irish Car Bomb Bronwies
Tracy Byrne
The first Saturday in March is St. Patrick's Day in Rockaway. It's always a fun day of parades, Irish food at Grandma's, a beer tent, and live music. These are pretty much all of my favorite things, and they happen on one awesome day! I offered to bring the dessert and my first inclination was to make Irish Car Bomb Cupcakes, but I have made them quite a few times already. I wanted something different and when I saw this recipe, I was instantly intrigued!
The brownie layer is super fudgy, thick, and moist. There is just enough Guinness flavor. I really think Guinness does wonders for textures in baked goods. The cheesecake layer is creamy and sweet with the wonderful flavor of Baileys. And to top it all off, there are these little shamrocks pipped on top that are dark and fudgy with a rich scent of whiskey!
Pipping the whiskey shamrocks were a little tricky! I poured the mix into a pipping bag and snipped the end. Next time I would probably use a tip to have better control of the batter. As you can see from the picture, my shamrocks are all unique individuals!
Irish Car Bomb Brownies Yield 24-30 Adapted from - Endless Simmer Brownie Layer 2 cups flour 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa - Hershey's Special Dark 1 teaspoon soda 1/2 teaspoon salt 2 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature 2 eggs 1 tablespoon vanilla 1/2 cup Guinness 4 tablespoons whiskey
- Preheat the oven to 325 F. Place foil in a 9x13" pan so there is enough foil hanging over the edge to act as handles to pull out the brownies.
- Cream together the butter and sugar until pale yellow in the bowl of a stand mixer with a paddle attachment. Add in the eggs and vanilla, beat to combine.
- Sift together the flour, cocoa, soda, and salt. Add half of dry ingredients into the mixer and mix on low. Add in 1/4 cup of Guinness.
- Remove the bowl from the mixer and mix the rest of the dry ingredients and Guinness by hand.
- Remove one cup of batter and add in the whiskey, pour into a pipping bag and place in the fridge.
- Pour the rest of the batter into the prepared pan and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Bake for 25 minutes until the brownie is set. Let cool on a wire rack.
Cream Cheese Layer + Assembly 12 ounces cream cheese 1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons powdered sugar 1 tablespoon vanilla 1 egg 1/4 cup Bailey's Irish Cream
- Add all the ingredients to a bowl and beat until combined.
- Pour the cheesecake mixture over the cooled brownie base.
- Pipe shamrocks about 1/2 inch apart.
- Bake 25-30 or until the cheesecake topping is set.
- Cool on a wire rack, use the foil to lift the brownies out of the pan, and then cut according to the shamrocks.

Report: Nets Reject Lakers' Proposed Trade Of Pau Gasol For Deron Williams
The NBA trade deadline is fast approaching, and the dominoes are... well, not falling. Not only is Dwight Howard staying put in Orlando, but now ESPN's Marc Stein says that the New Jersey Nets "absolutely, positively will not move Deron Williams." In fact, they've already rejected the L.A. Lakers' offer of Pau Gasol for D-Will straight up.
Sources told Stein that the Lakers offered Gasol to the Nets for Williams back in December and were rejected. If they make another offer in the next two hours, they will again be turned down.
Stein reports that while the Nets remain active at the deadline, it's not to acquire a superstar right away -- it's to stockpile smaller trade assets in preparation for making a run at a star around draft time, just before Williams hits free agency on July 1. Williams is averaging a career high of 22.0 points per game this season, plus 8.1 assists and 3.5 rebounds, in the final year of his contract with the Nets. It's been widely speculated that he's eyeing a potential move to the Dallas Mavericks this summer in free agency.

Texas Legends
Texas history is full of legend and lore. One such tale is the "Yellow Rose of Texas" - a legend commemorated in song. But is there such a rose? And if there is, which rose is it?
In Search
of the
"Yellow Rose of Texas"
by Mark Whitelaw
The Song
Originally conceived as a folksong in early Colonial Texas history, the first recorded copy of the "Yellow Rose of Texas" was handwritten on a piece of plain paper circa 1836. Historical records indicate this copy was most probably transcribed either shortly before or just after General Sam Houston lead his brigade of Texas loyalists against the army of General Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna at the Battle of San Jacinto on April 21, 1836.
The folksong's lyrics [see Lyrics] tell of a black American (presumably a soldier) who left his sweetheart (a "yellow rose") and yearns to return to her side. "Yellow" was a term given to Americans of mixed race in those days - most commonly mulattos. And "Rose" was a popular feminine nineteenth century name; frequently used in songs and poems as a symbolic glorification of young womanhood. [Turner]
The original transcription was poorly made and full of spelling errors. This would indicate [that] the transcriber was somewhat uneducated but possibly influential, as it was signed with three embellished initials. This copy is now housed in the archives at the University of Texas in Austin.
Although no name is given as the song's composer in any of the records, a hint may come from the fourth line in the chorus which infers the soldier is from Tennessee. Unfortunately, many men from Tennessee moved to (or were brought to) Texas during its colonization and war of independence.
In 1858, the first copyrighted edition of the song was published in New York. The cover states the song was "Composed and Arranged Expressly for Charles H. Brown by J.K." It was common in the nineteenth century to keep "ghost" composers secretive, especially if the songs had slave folksong origins. Hence, we donât know who "J.K." was, nor are we certain he was even the composer. And weâre not likely to find out.
Soon after it was published, the song increased in worldwide popularity and was sung by minstrels both in this country and Europe. As the American Civil War began, it was adopted as a marching song by soldiers everywhere - most often, as you might expect, by those soldiers from Texas. But since it referred to (and was to be sung by) a black American soldier, the song's lyrics were changed. By the early 1860's, the term "darky"[sic] was replaced with "soldier," and the first line of the chorus was changed to "She's the sweetest little flower...."
Finally, in 1864 with the end of the war nearing, a fourth stanza was added to reflect the dismay and hopelessness of General John B. Hood's retreating Texas Brigade after its disastrous Tennessee campaign. [Abernathy] Some of his troops were so disoriented after the loss, they actually thought the war was over and started returning home - singing, of course, "Yellow Rose of Texas."
So then, who was Yellow Rose? The answer comes from historical records which tell us the song's original title was "Emily, the Maid of Morgan's Point." [Turner]
The Legend
Emily of Morgan's Point refers to an indentured servant, somewhat forgotten in history for her heroism during the Texas war of independence from Mexico. Some contend the legend is a myth - not a part of history. [Abernathy] The historical evidence, however, indicates otherwise.
The legend begins in 1830 with the immigration to Texas of one James Morgan, an entrepreneur from Philadelphia with extensive holdings. Morgan was eager to capitalize on the cheap land and business opportunities in the Mexican colony which would ultimately become Texas. He formed several partnerships with New York speculators for land deals in the fledgling colony. However, Texas did not permit slavery and Morgan had 16 he wanted to bring with him. So to circumvent the law, he converted his slaves into 99-year indentured servants.
In the years that followed, a scheme was conceived to flood Texas with non-Mexicans from the United States. To capitalize on that movement, Morgan returned to New York in 1835 to recruit more workers for his settlement. One such émigré was a twenty year old woman named Emily D. West - "an eastern import with extraordinary intelligence and sophistication."
Emily West was mulatto and possibly from Bermuda, since Morgan brought many of his workers from this Atlantic island. According to some records, West volunteered to be indentured, most probably to escape the prejudice against her mixed race. And, as was the custom for an indentured worker at the time, she changed her last name to that of Morgan's.
By the following year in 1836, the war for Texas' independence from Mexico was fully engaged and led by General Sam Houston. James Morgan's now successful settlement, New Washington, was strategically located near the mouth of the San Jacinto River. He freely gave his famous oranges, various grains and fattened cattle to Houston's men. One particularly strategic parcel of land named Morgan's Point (so called to this day) extended into San Jacinto Bay. From Morgan's Point, flatboats were loaded with supplies for Houston.
Thus established as a "friend of Texas," James Morgan was appointed a Colonel. And in March, 1836, he was assigned to the Port of Galveston (some 30 miles away) to guard Texas refugees and fugitive government officials. So that Houston's supply line would continue, he left Emily West Morgan in charge of loading flatboats destined to feed the army.
By the afternoon of April 18, 1836, General Santa Anna had moved his men into position to attack the Texas rebels he knew to be nearby. On his approach was New Washington - now mostly deserted as its inhabitants fled before his marching army. One of those that remained behind, however, was Emily, and Santa Anna was immediately struck by her beauty.
The next morning, after his men helped themselves to the crops and cattle, Santa Anna set about securing one more "spoil of war" - Emily. He captured her and a young "yellow boy" named Turner loading yet another flatboat headed for Houston's army. Santa Anna cajoled Turner to lead his Mexican scouts to the Houston encampment. But as they were departing, Emily convinced Turner to escape from Santa Anna's men and rush to Houston's camp to inform him of the Mexican general's arrival.
General Santa Anna believed himself quite the ladies' man. And although still married to a woman in Mexico, he remarried one of his teenaged captives from his Texas campaign. But he had been without his most recent bride for two weeks now. Emily looked like she would make a very suitable replacement.
Thus, he ordered the immediate setting up of his encampment on the plains of the San Jacinto despite protestations from his colonels who insisted the location violated all principles of wartime strategy. And they were right. Houston, upon hearing of Santa Anna's location from Turner, moved his troops into the woods within a scant mile of the beguiled general's headquarters.
On the morning of April 21, Houston climbed a tree to spy into the Mexican camp. There he saw Emily preparing a champagne breakfast for Santa Anna, and reportedly remarked, "I hope that slave girl makes him [Santa Anna] neglect his business and keeps him in bed all day." [Garner]
By afternoon, the great final battle for the independence of Texas was engaged. The Mexican army was caught completely by surprise, and Santa Anna was literally caught "with his pants down." (Reports at the time said he was caught running away from the battle with his studded silk shirt opened and concealed under a dead soldier's blue smock - hurriedly put on during his attempted escape.)
Emily West Morgan survived the battle and made her way back to New Washington. Two days later, James Morgan, who had not heard of the battle, returned from Galveston and Emily told him of her ordeal and the outcome of the last great battle. The colonel was so impressed with Emily's heroism, he repealed her indenture and gave her a passport back to New York - the final chapter of which we have no record.
We do know, however, Morgan made certain everyone knew of Emily's heroism. He told everyone he encountered or anyone who would listen, and recorded the story in his journals. Morgan "kept a running commentary on Texas affairs with Samuel Swartwout, one of Houston's friends in New York City." [Wisehart] He also told his story to an English friend and ethnologist, William Bollaert, who recorded the story in every detail. [Turner]
There are some in recent history who have suggested Emily's efforts were made because she was attracted to the opulence and good looks of the Mexican general. But the accounts from those who were there indicate she was a loyal "Texian" who did what she could for the independence of Texas. [Turner]
Today, the heroic acts of the young woman from New York are still reverently commemorated by the members of the Knights of the Yellow Rose of Texas each April 21 at San Jacinto.
The Rose
To answer the questions, "Is there a Yellow Rose of Texas?" and if so "What is it?", the answer is there was a "Yellow Rose." But it was not a "what" it was a "who" - Emily West Morgan.
It follows, then, that we ask "Is there a rose named in honor of Emily and her heroic act?" Although a possibility, probably not.
In rose literature, the Old Garden Rose most frequently associated with the "Yellow Rose of Texas" is Harison's Yellow. Let's examine the possibilities.
In the 1830's, George Folliott Harison was a New York lawyer and amateur rose hybridizer. He (or possibly his lawyer father, Richard) crossed what is believed to be Rosa foetida persiana (ÎPersian Yellow') with R. spinosissima (= R. pimpinellifolia) ('Scotch Briar Rose'). The resulting hybrid was named Rosa x. harisonii or ÎHarison's Yellow.' [Phillips and Rix] Although once-blooming, Harison's Yellow was renowned at the time for its vigor, hardiness, resilience and resistance to disease.
The obvious link between the woman, the song, and the rose is New York City. Although I could find no record indicating George and/or Richard Harison were business partners with James Morgan, as "men of means" this may have been a possibility.
It is almost a certainty the New York press would have picked up on the tales coming from the Battle of San Jacinto and the subsequent independence of Texas - especially since James Morgan had business ties to the city. Almost as certain would be James Morgan's account of his former servant's heroism - especially since he would have been a "neighbor" from Pennsylvania with numerous business dealings in New York; and she would have been considered a New Yorker who had survived a Texas adventure and returned "home" as a "free woman" to tell about it.
Although I searched the index to The New York Times in great detail, I turned up no such tales. The index itself is handscribed and annotates only important stories as they relate to national and state events and people. "Features" about roses and adventures are not recorded.
The folksong that became so popular also became the theme song for settlers as they traveled long distances in search of a new homestead. In the ensuing decades after its hybridization, both preceding and following the American Civil War, Harison's Yellow was reportedly carried westward by settlers who planted it wherever they stopped. Even today, naturalized stands of this rose can be found as far west as New Mexico and California. [Druitt and Shoup] But it is seldom seen naturalized in Texas.
Despite its vigor and resilience to the difficult growing conditions in northern climates, Harison's Yellow does not grow well in Texas where the growth season is long and summer temperatures are high - most notably in the central and southern portions of the state. Likewise, it does not root well from cuttings - the preferred method of transporting roses by settlers in the nineteenth century.
And what of the comparison between the lyrics and the rose? Is it a "stretch" to connect the brilliant yellow blossoms of Harison's Yellow with the lyrics "Her eyes are bright as diamonds, they sparkle in the dew"? Can we compare the fruity scent of the blossoms to "She's the sweetest rose of color...."? Dare we associate the charming but ever-so-prickly canes of this rose to the Mata Hari-like deeds performed on behalf of the fight for Texas independence?
Again, possibly. There is no way of knowing for certain. But if this rose was so nicknamed by travelers in search of long-sought goals - goals commemorated in a wonderful folksong about a Texas heroine - then indeed Harison's Yellow may well be the "Yellow Rose of Texas."

Citation: Yang, S., Hao, G., Dayan, F.E., Tranel, P.J., Yang, G. 2013. Insight into the structural requirements of protoporphyrinogen oxidase inhibitors: molecular modeling and CoMFA of diphenyl ether, isoxazole phenyl, and pyrazole phenyl ether. Chinese Journal of Chemistry. 31:1153-1158. Interpretive Summary: Protoporphyrinogen oxidase is an important targets for certain herbicides. The protein was expressed in vitro and several of those herbicides was tested to measure their effect on the enzyme activity. The data was then analyzed to determine the relationship between the herbicides structure and their respective activity. This study provides a new insight into the structural characteristics for the binding of the herbicides.
Technical Abstract: Protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO, EC 126.96.36.199) is one of the most significant targets for a large family of inhibitors that may be used as herbicide, bactericide, fungicide, or photosensitizing activator to treat cancer through photodynamic therapy (PDT). Molecular modeling and CoMFA were combined in a multistep framework with the ultimate goal of identifying important factor contributing to the activity of PPO inhibitors. As a continuation of the previous research work on the development of new PPO inhibitors, the bioassay results indicated that good PPO inhibitors were discovered in all of the three chemical series with I50 values ranging from 0.010 to 0.061 µM. Using the crystal structure of mtPPO as template, all the compounds were docked into the enzyme active site. The docking pose of each compound was subsequently used in a receptor-based alignment, leading to the development of a significant CoMFA model with r2 value of 0.98 and q2 (cross validation r2) value of 0.63. This novel multistep framework gives insight into the structural characteristics for the binding of inhibitors, and it can be extended to other classes of PPO inhibitors. In addition, the simplicity of the proposed approach may be particularly applicable in virtual screening procedures.

William from Tattingstone School said that he tried four times before he came up with a solution to Cycling Squares:
We're glad you didn't give up, William. Beth and Pheobe from Exminster CP School and Skye and Molly from Breckland Middle School also used trial and error (or trial and improvement as I like to call it!). Beth and Phoebe said it tested their skills of perseverance.
Matha, also from Tattingstone, said that she started with the number $2$ and then added $14$ because it was the only number she could have added to make a square number. She goes on to say:
I then added $11$ to $14$ to get $25$ which is another square number and carried on like this.
Martha sent in a drawing of her circle which is the same as William's answer, just written in a different way:

|It would be better to measure the voltages at the Control Board with the Elements disconnected.
Otherwise, (since one leg is not connecting) when you read 120v to chassis, you don't know which leg (L1 or L2)
of the power is making it through (the Element) to the voltmeter...
There's a Relay that connects L1 to each Element and a Relay that connects L2 to the Elements.
Could you post the Wiring Diagram number from the lower right corner ?

No specific data are available regarding MAXZIDE (triamterene and hydrochlorothiazide) overdosage in humans and no specific antidote is available.
Fluid and electrolyte imbalances are the most important concern. Excessive doses of the triamterene component may elicit hyperkalemia, dehydration, nausea, vomiting and weakness and possibly hypotension. Overdosing with hydrochlorothiazide has been associated with hypokalemia, hypochloremia, hyponatremia, dehydration, lethargy (may progress to coma) and gastrointestinal irritation. Treatment is symptomatic and supportive. Therapy with MAXZIDE (triamterene and hydrochlorothiazide) should be discontinued. Induce emesis or institute gastric lavage. Monitor serum electrolyte levels and fluid balance.
Institute supportive measures as required to maintain hydration, electrolyte balance, respiratory, cardiovascular and renal function.
MAXZIDE (triamterene and hydrochlorothiazide) should not be used in the presence of elevated serum potassium levels (greater than or equal to 5.5 mEq/liter). If hyperkalemia develops, this drug should be discontinued and a thiazide alone should be substituted.
Antikaliuretic Therapy or Potassium Supplementation
MAXZIDE should not be given to patients receiving other potassium-conserving agents such as spironolactone, amiloride hydrochloride or other formulations containing triamterene. Concomitant potassium supplementation in the form of medication, potassium-containing salt substitute or potassium-enriched diets should also not be used.
Impaired Renal Function
MAXZIDE is contraindicated in patients with anuria, acute and chronic renal insufficiency or significant renal impairment.
MAXZIDE should not be used in patients who are hypersensitive to triamterene or hydrochlorothiazide or other sulfonamide-derived drugs.This monograph has been modified to include the generic and brand name in many instances.

In an interview with the Rocky Mountain News, Nader was asked if he thought Obama was any better than any other recent Democratic candidate. His response:
"There's only one thing different about Barack Obama when it comes to being a Democratic presidential candidate. He's half African-American. Whether that will make any difference, I don't know. I haven't heard him have a strong crackdown on economic exploitation in the ghettos. Payday loans, predatory lending, asbestos, lead. What's keeping him from doing that? Is it because he wants to talk white? He doesn't want to appear like Jesse Jackson? We'll see all that play out in the next few months and if he gets elected afterwards."Asked again about his comment, he continued:
"Do you think he's trying to, what was your term, 'talk white?'"Watch the video, from Rocky Mountain News, broadcast June 24, 2008.
Nader: "Of course. I mean, first of all, the number one thing that a black American politician aspiring to the presidency should be is to candidly describe the plight of the poor, especially in the inner cities and the rural areas, and have a very detailed platform about how the poor is going to be defended by the law, is going to be protected by the law, and is going to be liberated by the law. Haven't heard a thing."

As Gareth Morgan continues his crusade against cats, supposedly to save native birds, one wonders what the end game is for him on the issue and whether he has a bad case of ailurophobia - the persistent, irrational fear of cats.
Each week Mr Morgan seems to find a new way to "skin the cat" and make the news, this week putting "wanted" posters up for SPCA board members at a small meeting in Karori.
Every year SPCA centres around the country receive 60,000 animals through their doors with 14,000 animal-welfare complaints, with many requiring return or follow-up visits. Much of this work is done by volunteers, and for Mr Morgan to put up childish wanted posters smacks of a shallow, attention-seeking media stunt against an honourable and important institution in our society.
Mr Morgan doesn't deserve any more coverage on this issue because his crusade is clearly now just self-indulgent fantasy. Hundreds of thousands of cat owners are not going to confine their cats indoors. It just won't happen. There's no popular support for it, political or otherwise. So where are we going with this? It just seems to be all about Gareth.
If we want to have a debate about saving native birds, let us start with the biggest culprit of all, humans. Look at a photo of Hawke's Bay from space. It is devoid of forest. The Once-ler has been and gone and the Lorax isn't going to suddenly appear to save our precious birds. Sure we have trees on orchards, but birds are actively sought and shot in that environment. Never mind the cats.
To see how birds thrived in Hawke's Bay before we chopped all the native forest down, visit Elsthorpe Scenic Reserve, where native birds flourish among the mature kahikatea, matai, miro and totara trees.
Habitat loss is the biggest cause of bird deaths, so if we are concerned about native birds, we should be restoring habitats.
Other factors killing birds are large-scale pollution, window collisions, rodent poison, oil spills, and automobiles, to name a few. How many birds has Mr Morgan run over on his extensive road bike trips? Shall we start a campaign to ban motorbikes because they can kill birds?
If he really wants to save native birds, Mr Morgan should visit Cape Sanctuary in Hawke's Bay and see how it is being done. It is owned by Julian Robertson, and the Hansen and Lowe families. These landowners have a worthy and honorable vision to restore the coastal communities of landbirds, seabirds, reptiles and invertebrates that would once have existed on the peninsula. These efforts are what should be focussed on.
Mr Morgan has been a worthy advocate of the environment, but his credibility in this area is rapidly faltering as he appears to teeter on the fringe. There are, after all, only so many ways you can skin a cat, and he now risks a legacy of "that rich nutter obsessed with wanting to get rid of cats".

It's simple enough to make your own cat flap once you have the know-how. Justin Newcombe explains.
We moved into our house more years ago than I care to remember, with our big, black, fat, lazy, grumpy cat Bombay, who was intent on destroying every thread of low-hanging cloth he could find, including curtains, couches and cushions. This fatso needed to get out more so we decided to install a cat flap. It was a real Laurel and Hardy effort after Friday drinks. We attacked the back door with gusto and a hack saw. The damage was brutal and the hole more than a little agricultural but we managed to attach the cat flap with a good deal of creative interpretation of the instructions, which made sobering retrospective reading.
The cat of course, cynical and perceptive, could spot the not-too-well-hidden flaws in the apparatus and mockingly spent the next two months disabling, dismantling and destroying it. In one grumpy old man moment he simply ripped the whole cat door out of the hole and stormed outside where he sat beside his handiwork, looking outraged. Apparently he'd had beef, venison and turkey soufflé with gravy, peas and anchovies in a whitebait sauce the night before last.
How was I meant to know?
Big boy finally kicked the bucket and a few tears were shed, although I don't know why. His favoured pleasures seemed to be wrecking my stuff, scratching my kids and keeping me awake at night. All I've got left are a few painful memories and an ugly hole in my back door. At last I'm doing something about it. Although Bunnings sell ready-to-go cat-flaps, I can't help but have a go at reinventing the wheel so I've decided to build my own. I've gone for timber which is easy to work, looks smart with a coat of paint or a rub-down with linseed oil and is sturdy enough to handle even the most destructive mega-mog.
Step 1
Draw and cut out the hole. Make sure you're happy with the position and that the hole is nice and square. I usually cut inside the pencil line then file to it. This ensures I get an accurate, tidy finish.
Step 2
Line and frame the hole, using strips of timber. I used a small Ryobi skill saw to cut my plywood strips and Gorilla polyurethane glue, which has an expanding quality to give a snug fit. I pinned the ply to the hole with small nails. A good tip here is to use a small hammer - saves a lot of bruised fingers.
Step 3
Place a piece of plywood on the hole and mark out the door and cut out with a handsaw. I used a 300-tooth finishing handsaw for this. To stop the ply from chipping, place masking tape over the cut-line, re-draw the line on to the tape, then saw through it.
Step 4
Sand the edges, attach the hinges and then attach the door. Check that it doesn't stick. If it does stick, rub the edges with sandpaper until it swings freely.
Step 5
Paint or oil the cat door.

Following Saturday's daylong strategic planning session, Schools Superintendent Mark Porter is preparing for the next stage in the progression: bringing the findings from a half-dozen working groups back to his executive team to be refined by the end of the week.
From there, the super will form six action teams, one per strategic objective identified by the working groups. The teams will then lay out the specific steps that need to take place over the next 12 to 18 months to achieve those objectives.
Prior to Saturday's session, an opening round was conducted April 22 at Coral Shores High School, where Porter laid out the format to be followed, and introduced the members of the strategic planning teams to one another.
The process is "not going to answer all our questions," Porter said during his opening remarks. "But it will give us a tool to address some of the problems we face. You've got to respect people giving up their Saturday for the process. We welcome those who are interested in the process."
There were at least two no-shows; people who had applied for and been accepted to the team but couldn't make Tuesday's session. Porter said that he'd be talking to them later, to brief them on what they'd missed.
The group members sat in small groups at six tables to discuss the strategy the district will follow in the years ahead. Each table had an assigned "recorder."
All five School Board members were in attendance and participating in the exercise, however it wasn't clear what role, if any, the findings from the seven strategic engagement sessions Porter held throughout the Keys will play in this ongoing process.
The reporters from each table discussed some of the agreements they've reached as regards "opportunities and threats" to the district. Everyone at one table seemed to agree that an improving economy will be a good thing for budgets, while an "improved reputation of the district" will be good for attracting new teachers.
Following the meeting, School Board member John Dick, of District 4, did a tally and came up with the following statistics on the makeup of the group: Besides the board members, there were seven community members, four parents and 21 district employees.
Dick, who has made no secret of his disdain for workshops of this sort, said "This is not a snapshot of the community ... . It's top-heavy with district employees, who are going to come up with the consensus that the community wants to raise taxes. It doesn't represent the community or its views."
Now that this part of the Strategic Planning Process is complete, the superintendent and his executive team will refine the findings by the end of this week.
From there, six strategic objectives will be identified, and handed off to six "action teams," one per strategic objective.
"They'll lay out the specific steps that need to take place in the next 12 to 18 months to achieve those five-year objectives," Porter said. "I was very pleased with how the progress went. We probably have a little more work to do."

Anyone Can Die by James Le Pore
Genre: Short Stories
Publisher: The Story Plant
Publication Date: 2011
Pages: 46
Source: Copy provided by the author
The Short Version:
Three short stories providing background for the main characters of the author's first suspense novel A World I Never Made.
Why I Read It:
I've enjoyed two of James Le Pore's books and when he offered to send me this short story collection I quickly said yes.
The Book:
The book (really more of a booklet at 46 pages) contains three short stories that provide some background for three main characters of the novel A World I Never Made.
In the introduction the author explains that in editing the novel, he found it necessary to edit out some of the backstories of the characters in order to preserve the pacing of the the book. He later used some of that material to write these shot stories as a companion piece to the novel.
Pat Nolan and his bride discover surprising things about themselves and each other when confronted with a dangerous situation on their honeymoon. While exploring New Mexico they stop to check out a hot spring they'd heard about, but newlyweds Pat and Lorrie Dolan encounter trouble with some locals. Even though they're still learning about each other they are forced into a situation that reveals truths about them both individually and as a couple.
Megan Nolan is on her own and living in Paris. She has a rather cynical attitude about her current relationship and lover, but is she really that heartless? Scenes from a series of related incidents reveal that Megan has an unexpected soft side to go along with her tough exterior and outlook on life.
FBI agent Max French takes a break from the wrap up of a complex case to get back to the Seattle area of his childhood for the funeral of a person who had been instrumental in his life. The flashbacks to events of many years ago
My Thoughts:
These stories can be read in isolation from the novel quite easily. On their own they are stories that have some suspense and are about pivotal moments in the characters lives. To read them as a companion piece to A World I Never Made, however adds some interesting background and additional thoughts about the characters.
In the introduction to this book(let), Le Pore says that the stories are something that can be read separate from the novel as well as before or after. I liked them as a worthwhile extension of it even though it's been nearly two years since I read it.
Rating 3.5/5

Hi all
Hopefully someone can help or offer advice.
E46 2004 325 CiSe convertible.
A problem started yesterday when on a long motorway drive in the wet. I opened the drivers door window slightly to let in some air, when I closed the window the drivers door mirror glass moved to the down position. It would not return using the button, only by pushing the glass manually. The problem is still occurring today.
Any help would be appreciated.

Girls with boy names S/O
My oldest daughter's name is Addison. Addison used to be a boy name and a lot of people(on CM) still consider it to be one. That being said, I've never met a little boy or a grown man with the name Addison. I've met a few other little girls with the name though.
So tell me, does your little girl have a "boy" name? If so, how many boys do you actually know with that name? It can be the other way around too!
Sort of! Her name is Rylynn. I wanted to name her Ryan but hubby said no to boyish.
Quoting LucyHarper:
I know two guys named Addison, one is an adult and the other is a kid in my sons class. I don't know any girls with that name. Just saying. My sons names are Tate and Robin, some say Robin is feminine, I think they're crazy.
And then, making matters more confusing but adorable IMO, my brother is also named Sam after my dad and he named his younger daughter Frankie-Marie in honor of my mom.
Quoting Anonymous:
Girl named Brandon?? You like 90210? I love it - I'm watching it right now - I watch it every day
Quoting Anonymous:
Never heard of Addison for a boy, all girls here with that name.
Conner( my niece) & my girls are: Avery, Bailey, Morgan, Dylan & Brandon

I love how versatile this product is. It's easy to use as a highlighter or eyeshadow, and it doesn't have too much shimmer. My only complaint is that it seems to crack easily in the pan.4

st: weird margins

st: weird margins
Thu, 01 Oct 2009 15:31:39 -0400
I run a tobit because of left censoring at zero, then want to use margins to predict the marginal slope for the observable dependent variable atotgiv.
Everything looks ok except in the output appears
Expression: E(atotgiv*|atotgiv>otherrelh), predict (ystar(0,.))
The appearance of otherrelh in this expression is mysterious. This is
another dummy variable used as a control. I didn't program it to look
at that, and I think it should read, instead, E(atotgiv*|atotgiv>0), etc.
Is this a bug? A mistake on my part? A misunderstanding?
Here is the exact command and headers for the results:
margins, predict(ystar(o,.)) dydx( earn01 assety01 welfare01
nonwelfare01 annuapprecinh annuownwealthn annuheq )
Model VCE : Robust

IT IS better to look at commercials without having them interrupted by programs. It is much more fun to watch an Alka-Seltzer cartoon immediately followed by a Volkswagen message than to have them separated by a scene from a rerun of "The Beverly Hillbillies.

"The glory of young men is their strength. And the honor of old men is their gray hair." – Proverbs 20:29
Since the beginning of 2013, I have been testing a few ideas regarding training and nutrition that I've known to be true and wanted to prove. I believe short, intense workouts are the most effective way to lose fat, build muscle, increase strength, and improve conditioning. I wanted to confirm if I was on the right track with what I've been doing for the past five years with my clients at Underground Fitness Revolution (UFR) as well as in my own training.
In "How I Train – Part 1," I discussed my four-week training and nutrition program from January to February 2013. In "How I Train – Part 2," I went over my four-week total-boy metabolic resistance training and nutrition program from February to March 2013. Since then, I've continued to test and try different things and have come to several conclusions that confirm what I've known to be true. This confirms that I've been on the right path to fitness, nutrition, and health while helping my coaching clients achieve their goals.
I hinted at this in my article "10 Minutes to Jumpstart Your Metabolism," and today I'm sharing what I've learned through self-experimentation for the past five years that I've run my fitness business working with many clients. The previous 20 years that I spent researching, studying, practicing, and self-experimenting with fitness and nutrition were filled with numerous mistakes. It is the result of those mistakes that helped shape my ideas, theories, practices, principles, methods, and applications that I now use with myself and my coaching clients.
I've found that 1-2 daily short (15-30 minute), intense total-body metabolic resistance training workouts a few times each week are FAR more effective than longer workouts. I've been testing this theory for the past few years and have it dialed in perfectly now.
During 2013 I performed the Focus T25 workouts fasted each morning (Mon – Fri) before breakfast (Shakeology) and 1-2 UFR workouts on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. In 2014, I used P90X3 and kettlebell workouts. And in 2015, I have used various kettlebell workouts. (I'm also a StrongFirst SFG1 Certified Kettlebell Instructor, HKC, and soon to be RKC instructor.)
All methods have been extremely effective with my fat loss, strength, and conditioning. I usually take weekends off (or perform light activity like Frisbee on the beach, playing in the ocean, performing the 25-minute Focus T25 "Stretch" recovery routine, P90X3 – Yoga3, Original Strength Resets, Mobility/Corrective work, foam rolling, etc.).
The great thing about short, intense total-body metabolic workouts is that you can perform a lot of work and stay focused in 15-30 minutes with higher intensity. Then, you eat health-building foods, rest a few hours, and you can do it again. BAM!!
Even if you don't have the time to perform more than one short, intense workout each day, you can get amazing results in 20-30 minutes a day, 3-5 days/week with Focus T25, P90X3, kettlebells, body-weight workouts, etc. Our UFR clients get awesome results with only three high-intensity total-body metabolic resistance training sessions each week (9 total sessions every four weeks).
One Monday in 2013, I went a little overboard and performed the Focus T25 Total-body Circuit fasted at 7:00 am and then performed UFR workouts at 9:00 am, 12:00 pm and 7:00 pm.
The last UFR workout was too much. I was already sore, tired, and wasn't able to lift as heavy. I should have only performed two training sessions (Focus T25 and one UFR workout). That's still less than an hour of exercise for the entire day with more work completed than most people accomplish in several days.
That's what I do most days now. I perform a strength-based kettlebell workout in the morning and a 20-25 minute total-body Kettlebell/Corrective/Mobility "Seamless" training session in the afternoon. I go easier on Tuesday's and Thursday's and only perform one 20-25 minute "Seamless" session.
It may seem crazy or that I'm performing a lot of training but essentially that's only 45-60 minutes of exercise (two 20-30 minute workouts) three days each week. I can guarantee that I do more high-quality and result-producing work in those 45-60 minutes than most people spending 1-2 hours in the gym thanks to my short, intense, highly focused sessions.
This continues to prove what I've known and been doing at UFR during the last five years: short, intense workouts are the most effective for fat loss, increased strength, muscle gain, and conditioning. They are far more effective than longer workouts or what most people are doing in the gym or with a personal trainer.
Just to recap for those that think I'm crazy or have "all the time in the world" to train (time or money is not an excuse):
- I train for approximately 45-60 minutes 3x/week (Mon, Wed and Fri) = 3 hours
- I train for less than 25-30 minutes on Tuesday and Thursday = 1 hour
- That's a total of FOUR (4) hours of exercise per week. That's LESS time than most people spend going to the gym each week (many people go 3-6x/week and/or workout 1-2 hours each time).
- Even if I perform an extra 10-20 minute session on Saturday or Sunday, it's still less than 5 hours of exercise per week.
- This is still less time than most people spend going to the gym.
- In the book The Metabolism Advantage by Dr. John Berardi, research shows that the most successful people who lose weight and keep it off train a minimum of 5 hours per week.
- The difference is that I perform 1-2 SHORT, INTENSE workouts rather than longer, less productive sessions.
- The average American watches more than 36 hours of TV each week. I spend less than five hours each week exercising and still have time to do other things.
- My "Protein, Produce, Healthy Fats and Water" guidelines and the Whole30 absolutely works as does replacing one meal each day with Shakeology. Follow my guidelines or the Whole30 program and use Shakeology for incredible results and improved health.
This is why the high-intensity total-body metabolic resistance training sessions we perform at Underground Fitness Revolution are so effective and why I'm such a huge fan of similar programs.
You do NOT have to train as much as me to get awesome results. Remember, I'm advanced and have worked up to this over time and consistent training. You can easily perform Focus T25 for 25 minutes a day, 5 days/week (or P90X3, or kettlebell workouts, or body-weight workouts) and see incredible results. I have coaching clients doing this and the results to prove it. The short, intense workouts are fun, energizing, and provide amazing results in less than 30 minutes each day.
Some of my coaching clients have performed, P90X3, Simple & Sinister, Focus T25, and our UFR workouts and had amazing results. That means they performed two workouts on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday and one workout on Tuesday and Thursday (a little more than 3 hours of exercise per week).
My coaching clients don't find the time to exercise. They make the time. They schedule it with themselves. They wake up a little earlier each day to perform their first session in the morning before breakfast (less than 30 minutes) or at another time during the day. And they schedule time to train with me three times each week in the afternoon or evening.
I believe everyone has the time to do this. Again, even if you have the busiest schedule in the world, you have 20-30 minutes a day, 3-5 days/week to get it done. It just depends on what you're going to give up in order to make it a part of your schedule. To improve your fitness, nutrition, and health (or anything else in your life), you'll need to make sacrifices. You sacrifice one thing to gain another. It may mean watching less TV or spending less time on the computer. Don't focus on what you're giving up. Focus on what you're gaining in the long run. Improved fitness and health has too many benefits to list and will be with you for the rest of your life. You can't say that about all the other time wasters we focus on each day.
There's a reason why I do what I do and highly recommend short, intense workouts. I can help you because it is God's purpose for me. It's the reason He created me and gave me gifts, talents and abilities to fulfill this purpose in my life yo! I want to coach you to success. Contact me and let's do it together with short, intense workouts and proper nutrition.
– Nate

Hey everyone,
Just started putting a website together for a friend and have included some roll over images for the navigation.
The top row is working fine the the bottom row has a sort of half shadow effect in IE & Safari. The site looks fine in FF.
Any ideas?
The site is edgetoedgedesign.com/new.html
A List Apart has a good article on how to use CSS sprites.http://www.alistapart.com/articles/sprites
If that doesn't work google "CSS sprites".
There are hundreds of random scripts out there. The last site I created I used a database of images and displayed them randomly on the page with php.
simple css, different background images for normal state and :hover - tutorials on how to do this can be found here: http://css.maxdesign.com.au/ (not all use that technique, you'd have to check each single one to find the one that comes closest to what you want)
yes, you'd need a script, you can choose between a server side script using php (or another server side programming language) or client side JavaScript - maybe one of the JavaScript libraries has something like this but I'd advise against using client side.
Thanks guys,
Any suggestions on how to do this, I am using two images due to the font being a self created one. I don't want to replace the font although I understand that would be a better option for many reasons.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I will also be looking for some help with the next step, to have 6 images displayed on the front page but these be randomly grabbed from a pool of about 18? What should I be looking at here. does this have to be some sort of script?
Looks very strange in Opera. I really wouldn't do it that way, you have a morass of JS in your code that you could easily replicate with basic CSS hover attributes. Welcome to SP, Steve!
please look into CSS image replacement methods, using javascript for this is ugly and not recommended.

If you live in the west end of the peninsula, make sure that you mark your calendars for the special election being held on February 24 to fill the seat vacated by Joe Addabbo when he moved from the City Council to the State Senate. To vote, simply go to your regular polling place. As we write this, there are two Rockaway residents on the ballot - Democratic District Leaders Lew Simon and Geraldine Chapey. There are also two mainland candidates from whom to chose - conservative businessman Mike Ricatto and Republican District Leader Eric Ulrich. A third Rockaway resident, Glenn DiResto, is still fighting to remain on the ballot at press time after he was removed by the Board of Elections commissioners because his chosen name was too close to that of another political party.
The mayor and the Department of Buildings have some good news and some bad news for civic activists. The good news is that there is now a formal 30-day public challenge process for the public to contest new development in city neighborhoods based upon possible zoning infractions. All new development plans will have to be put online for everybody to see under the new procedure. Then, residents will have the full 30-day period to protest those plans. Which leads to the bad news. After the 30-day period is up, so is the right to protest the plans. Shady developers will only have to wait out the 30- day clock to begin projects that they know to be illegal and then be free and clear to complete the illegal job.
The Daily News asked more than 100 New Yorkers to identify photographs of Congressman Anthony Weiner and Comptroller William Thompson, the two leading Democratic candidates to run against Michael Bloomberg for mayor. Just 20 of them identified Thompson, while 29 identified Weiner. All of them could identify Bloomberg. That does not bode too well for the two challengers, and it means they have to get to places such as Rockaway more often. Both men, by the way, have visited The Wave office in the last six months to talk about their candidacy.
A number of senior citizens in Rockaway, and the rest of the city as well, did not get their hot meals from the longstanding "Meals on Wheels" program last week after Mayor Michael Bloomberg reduced the number of suppliers allowed to deliver the meals, from 39 down to three. "We're starting to hear complaints," City Councilman James Sanders Jr. told reporters. Sanders, who backed the mayor on the critical term limits vote and seems to now be his political ally, said, "It's a new system and it might take some time to work out the kinks." Others say, however, that the new plan will never work and that it places money and expediency over the needs of fragile senior citizens, whose only human contact each day may be the person who delivers those meals. The three vendors who now deliver all of the meals in Queens are the Visiting Nurse Service, Catholic Charities and the Jewish Association for Services for the Aged. In addition to consolidating the service providers, Bloomberg plans to soon provide a week's worth of frozen meals once each week rather than a hot meal each day. Opponents of the plan argue that many seniors do not have the capability to reheat the meals, while others do not know how to do it.
Parks Commissioner Adrian Benepe has a novel take on this year's search for lifeguards to staff Rockaway beaches. He believes that he will have no trouble finding the requisite number of recruits because of the current economic crisis. "One of the silver linings we're hoping for is that people with good swimming skills - people faced with the possibility of not having a job — may see a lifeguard job as a good opportunity," Benepe told reporters as he announced the yearly search for 1,200 lifeguards. "Some of our best lifeguards switched careers from indoor jobs. I think that people who might have been a swimmer and took a job in a financial position and lost their job, until they get something better to do will consider this." How about Bernie Madoff, who was on the Far Rockaway High School swimming team and was a lifeguard in Atlantic Beach? We hear that he might be looking for a summer job to tide him over.
The health care industry has geared up to fight the upcoming state cuts mandated by Governor David Paterson. Liz Sulik, the Director of External Affairs for Rockaway's Peninsula Hospital Center, recommends two websites that will give residents a look at what the cuts mean and present them with a chance to respond by contacting state legislators. The two sites that Sulik recommends to locals are www.helpour hospital.org and www.helpyournursinghome. org.
It is clear now that the Department of Transportation (DOT) will not do the paperwork necessary for the Broad Channel Volunteer Fire Department to get the federal money for its new firehouse. The city's refusal to allow the BCVFD to take the federal money rests largely on the fact that the New York City Fire Department does not want them to have it. Some believe that the FDNY would rather volunteer fire houses just fade away. In light of coming cuts, however, those volunteer companies become more valuable than ever. Congressman Anthony Weiner, who earmarked some of the original money, is reportedly looking for another way to get the available money to the volies, bypassing the city entirely.
