RIVERSIDE, Calif. (AP) Four Marines, including one known as "Psycho," told investigators they robbed and murdered a fellow Marine and his wife last month after breaking into their home in search of valuables and sexually assaulting the woman, according to court documents.
The four were charged Wednesday with the execution-style slayings of Sgt. Jan Pietrzak, 24, and Quiana Jenkins-Pietrzak, 26, who were found gagged, tied and shot in the head on Oct. 15 in the living room of their home in Winchester, in Riverside County southeast of Los Angeles.
The home was ransacked and jewelry and other items were taken, investigators said. A fire was set, apparently in an effort to destroy evidence.
Two of the accused worked for Pietrzak, who was a helicopter airframe mechanic at Miramar Marine Corps Air Station in San Diego.
Pietrzak, who was born in Poland and raised in Brooklyn, N.Y., joined the Marines in 2003 and served in Iraq from July 2005 to February 2006.
His mother, Henryka Pietrzak-Varga, told The Daily News of New York on Wednesday that she had prepared herself for the possibility of her son dying in Iraq.
"But to die like this, in their own home?" she said. "They were good kids. They didn't deserve to die like this."
Murder charges were filed against Lance Cpl. Emrys John, 18, of Maryland; Lance Cpl. Tyrone Miller, 20, of North Carolina; Pvt. Kevin Cox, 20, of Tennessee, and Lance Cpl. Kesaun Sykes, 21, of California. They do not have attorneys yet.
John and Miller worked for Pietrzak. Miller said he forced his way into the home by pointing a shotgun at Pietrzak, according to an affidavit from a sheriff's investigator.
Miller said he and others went to Pietrzak's home to rob him, then tied up the couple and discussed with John whether to kill them.
Cox and Sykes, known as "Psycho," acknowledged they went to the home to rob Pietrzak. All four said his wife was sexually assaulted, the affidavit said.
The document also said that shoes found at the barracks where Cox and John lived matched prints at the crime scene, and that items believed stolen from the house were found at Sykes' home.
The men were each charged with two counts of first-degree murder and special-circumstance allegations of committing multiple murders, committing the crime during a robbery, and rape by instrument, district attorney's spokesman Ryan Hightower said Thursday.
John, who prosecutors believe shot the couple, also was charged with a special-circumstance allegation of using a firearm to inflict great bodily injury or death.
Sykes, who lives in the Fallbrook area in San Diego County, was arrested on Sunday. The other three Marines lived at the Camp Pendleton base and were held there until they were transferred to a Riverside County jail on Wednesday.
All were being held without bail Thursday. Their arraignment was postponed until Nov. 20. Prosecutors had not decided whether to seek the death penalty.
"Marines are supposed to be brothers," Pietrzak's mother told The Riverside Press-Enterprise this week. "What kind of brothers are these?"

New Graphical Interface for Ubuntu on ARM
Linux is the operating system of choice for devices with ARM processors. Unfortunately problems with graphics appear in most cases. Ubuntu wants to fix this with a new GUI.
No matter if a smartphone, smart netbook or embedded device, most hardware with an ARM CPU is currently running Linux. It's natural that Ubuntu therefore wants a large slice of the ARM pie, but, like many GUIs, is running into resistance from graphics drivers that in many cases don't support direct rendering
To address the problem, a team at Ubuntu around developer Jamie Bennett is working in Ubuntu 10.04 on a new netbook interface based on the Enlightenment Foundation Libraries (EFL). The ARM port from Lucid Lynx checks during installation whether the computer is running with active 3D acceleration. If so, the normal netbook interface gets applied, if not, the new 2D GUI comes into action.
Apart from the classic netbook interface, the new EFL-based GUI provides at least one other benefit. Thanks to themes files in Edje format, fairly attractive themes can be generated without much programming. The EFL 2D launcher also provides a few very nice effects.
As is the case with many free software projects, the EFL launcher is not restricted to a particular architecture, so that it's available for i386 and x86_64 systems as well. To try out the new interface with Ubuntu's upcoming alpha version, use the command
sudo apt-get install netbook-launcher-efl
Changing back to the standard launcher simply requires
sudo apt-get remove netbook-launcher-efl
Details on the new GUI are in Jamie Bennett's blog.

Tofu Hamburger 31 recipes
Tofu hamburger steak could either refer to patties made of tofu or a blend of tofu and ground meat. Adding tofu to the patties not only significantly cuts down on the calories and fats, but also helps fluff up the patties. One of the perks of tofu hamburger steaks is that they don't harden when chilled, making them perfect to pack in bento lunchboxes.

Supreme Award
Winner: The Whitworth, The University of Manchester
Extraordinary architectural quality both in its internal and external spatial arrangements, attention to detail and workmanship. The proportions of the external spaces are immensely effective and give a calmness and richness. The relationship to its surroundings is clear in the historic Whitworth building and its landscape setting, park and new courtyards. This building has tremendous architectural quality and its use of brick as an ornamental narrative device as well as a robust skin is exceptional.
Architect's Choice Award
Winner: The Shields Centre
This local Health centre is at the heart of the community. It is an example of a great design lifting its surroundings. The public face of the building is open and inviting to the clients and users. The project is also strikingly modern but brick gives a heart to the building.
Housing Development 1 – 5 units
Winner: Church Road
The steeply sloping site upon which this house was built could have been daunting. To the clients it has held the promise of living with a wonderful aspect over beautiful landscape towards Belfast and the hills beyond. The Architect also realised the opportunity offered by the steep slope and exploited this to create a strikingly handsome and dramatic modern house. The house was conceived as three distinct mono-pitched forms collected together. The connections between the solids are expressed by recesses in the brickwork. The bricklaying has been very well executed with special care taken with recess junctions and the brick soffits to recessed windows.
Best Housing Design Award
Winner: Darbishire Place
The building is simple, direct, without fuss, frivolity or fancy. There are however moments of architectural delight, which become apparent. The window surrounds in a subtly projecting and tapering precast architectural stone trim, bring sensitive and subtle articulation to what would otherwise be a rather banal building. Two zones of stacked corner balconies are designed with a bespoke precast tapering blade column, which accentuate the relationship of the building users to the public realm they face.
Winner: Trafalgar Place
An exceptional piece of urban design on an intimate scale. Well-proportioned demonstrating expert detailing and beautifully integrated with the landscape. The relationship to the surroundings are both sensitive and seamless with the neighbouring streets and buildings. This scheme creates an oasis amongst a chaotic urban context.
Best Urban Regeneration Project
Winner: Laurieston Phase 1
This rebuild of the Glaswegian Tenement is an immensely successful example of high quality social housing. Tied to its surroundings and adjoining stone raised railway track the dark blended brick reflects the history of its location. The building provides private external balconies protected by the deep revels giving both light and privacy. It has to be said the adjoining brick blocks are lower quality, this is a shining example on how to regenerate an area. Within the block the landscape central court provides an alternative view.
Volume House Building Award
Winner: Taylor Wimpey East London
Taylor Wimpey has a range of developments all displaying good quality.
Best Commercial Building
Winner: The Haven Hostel
A truly disciplined building which works at all levels. The building is defined by its structure, which is clearly expressed and also provides much of the finishes, beautiful detailing and clarity of design. The medieval street pattern is complex, yet the Hostel finds an appropriate language using a clean modernism to impose order and structure. A solid defensive wall dissolves on approach to display an open structure.Although modest in scale the hostel is a timeless monumental quality with the load bearing brickwork providing a series of fascinating spaces. A unity of outdoor and internal space reflecting the hostels outdoor philosophy for hikers in Irelands National Park.
Best Public & Education Building
Winner: Richmond Adult Community College
Although economically built the buildings have a consistent expression of quality through a basic approach to the construction. (Stripped down). Despite the misgivings of the local conservationists the building fits well into its surroundings because it is clean, clear and straightforward. A great example of thoughtful adaptation and an archaeological approach to embedding the old in the new with brick as the leading narrative of the colleges' history and role in the community.
Winner: The Whitworth, The University of Manchester
The Whitworth Gallery is part of the University of Manchester and is sited in a public park, consequently is very much part of both academic and public domains. The planning of the alteration to the Whitworth is rationalising of the original galleries. The public space demonstrates a masterful grasp of proportions, design and scale. The private garden adjoining a busy street is oasis of calm and contemplation. The building is unashamedly modern but because of the use of brick and scale fits into the Manchester architecture seamlessly.
Best Refurbishment Project
Winner: House of Trace
In contrast to the joint winner this equally successful project demonstrates a masterful refurbishment and extension on an existing modest building to create a delight. An interestingly sensitive approach to refurbishment of an end of terrace house which reinvents the type through approach to the new and retained material – on both diagrammatic and detail level.
Winner: Richmond Adult Community Project
A deeply thoughtful, a resourceful approach to working with existing building and the insertion of the new. Carefully and creatively integrated into its surroundings, a complex and constrained site. The refurb enriches the existing campus and points in the direction of future development.
Best Outdoor Space
Winner: The Belvedere – Queen Elizabeth Walled Garden
This project could be considered a winner over several categories, it is absolutely stunning a magnificent achievement. The five acre walled garden was derelict and within a twelve month period the garden has been transformed into one of the most interesting walled gardens in this country.
Innovative use of brick and clay products
Winner: City Park West
This urban development in Chelmsford is a fine example of clay brick used in an innovative manner adjoining the brick rich railway station. The development is holistic in its use of clay both as landscape and as a façade material. This scheme is truly innovative in that it takes a blended modern product and conjunction with the Corium slip system uses the brick in a vertical manner as a contrast with the traditional load bearing bricks which surround it.
Specialist Brickwork Contractor of The Year
Winner: Swift Brickwork Contractors Ltd
The Specialist Brickwork Contractor is judged on the entire company activities including Health and safety, craftsmanship and most importantly training for the next generation.
Best Craftsmanship Award
Winner: Jafar Gallery and Jafar Hall, Eton College
Craftsmanship is judged by subcommittee of judges who are particularly qualified in understanding exceptional craftsmanship. The Award is awarded to the team but presented to the lead craftsman on the project. Lee Marley Brickwork for the Jafar Gallery and Jafar Hall, Eton College. An original conception. The building reflects its function of housing, the Egyptian exhibition and an Oratory forum.
BDA Chairman's Award
Winner: Eight Artillery Row
This is the major refurbishment of a 1960s concrete office block to create 21 flats. With inaccuracies in the basic frame of the building, the brickwork had to be meticulous, and the new brick façade makes a really positive contribution to the street scene. The careful attention to detail has produced a sustainable building, and with many brick specials incorporated in complex elevations it provides an incredibly successful response to a demanding design. This building exemplifies the kind of refurbishment project that we need if we are to regenerate our inner cities areas in a sustainable way and create the kind of environments which people value and where they want to live.
Best International & Worldwide Project
Winner: Turnmill
The building relationship to its surroundings is very strong. It sits amongst a context of ornate brick warehouses and directly opposite the old Sessions House. The choice of brick colour echoes the hues of the stone to the old Sessions House. The quality of the brickwork detailing is exceptionally high, this coupled with the selection of the thin linear brick and the slender column design gives a modernistic framework using a traditional material in a uniquely innovative and attractive manner. This building is a testament to a successful and fruitful relationship between designer and developer.

हेर्नुहोस भिडियो
With worldwide bidders shying ceaselessly, the administration is currently wanting to construct the Fast Track venture all alone. In any case, it will be a two-path street rather than the initially arranged four-path. With assets difficult to come, Nepal Purbhadhar Bikas Com-pany Limited (NPBCL), engineer of the passage interstate, as of late scrapped the roof of Rs 1 million, permitting institutional financial specialists to put in the sum they wish.
The Fast Track is evaluated to cost Rs 100 billion, while Tunnel Highway requires an expected Rs 35 billion.
The arrangement to connect Tarai with the Kathmandu valley is not new. Birendra Bahadur Deuja, previous secretary, says he had in 1991 pushed for a study to add to a high-class street associating the Capital with Tarai by means of Hetauda. "Indeed, even following two decades, we are as yet attempting to get what we need," says Deuja, who served as Director General at the Department of Roads (DoR) in 1991.
It's 2014 now, and the legislature is still undecided about the advancement and financing system for the Fast Track. "The issue is the legislature is not demonstrating any reality to remove the venture," includes Deuja. "The pioneers and officials should be not kidding about these sorts of undertakings which can acquire critical improvement the nation."

U.K. Stocks Rise as Japan Economic Growth Beats EstimatesNamitha Jagadeesh
U.K. stocks climbed, following two weeks of gains, as a report showed that Japan's economy grew at a faster pace than forecast.
Capita Plc gained 1.2 percent after Numis Securities Ltd. upgraded the outsourcing company. Lloyds Banking Group Plc dropped 1.7 percent after setting a price range for shares in its TSB division that fell below the value of the assets.
The FTSE 100 Index added 16.79 points, or 0.2 percent, to 6,875 at the close in London. The equity benchmark has rallied 6.6 percent from this year's low on Feb. 4 amid increased mergers-and-acquisitions activity. The broader FTSE All-Share Index increased 0.2 percent today, while Ireland's ISEQ Index advanced 0.3 percent.
"Economic momentum is positive and central banks are providing lots of support," Gerard Lane, a strategist at Shore Capital Group Ltd. in Liverpool, England, said in a telephone interview. "The U.K. market relies on global economic growth. If we get better data globally, then the stocks exposed to emerging markets will do well."
The volume of shares traded in FTSE 100 companies was 40 percent lower than the 30-day average, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Seven European markets including Norway, Denmark and Switzerland are closed today for a public holiday.
Japan's Economy
A report showed Japan's gross domestic product grew 1.6 percent in the first quarter, faster than the preliminary reading of 1.5 percent and the median economist estimate of 1.4 percent in a Bloomberg News survey. The economy expanded 6.7 percent at an annualized rate.
In China, exports rose 7 percent in May from a year earlier, the country's customs administration said yesterday. That exceeded the 6.7 percent increase forecast by economists in a Bloomberg survey. Imports fell 1.6 percent, creating a trade surplus of $35.92 billion, the biggest in five years.
Capita, which runs contracts on behalf of the U.K. government, gained 1.2 percent to 1,143 pence. Numis raised its recommendation on the shares to buy from hold, saying that first-half earnings will probably climb 16 percent.
A gauge of household-goods and construction companies advanced 1.1 percent as Barratt Developments Plc and Crest Nicholson Holdings plc rose 2.5 percent to 375.9 pence and 3.3 percent to 345.8 pence, respectively. Exane BNP Paribas raised its recommendation on European personal and household-goods companies to overweight, which is similar to buy, from underweight, citing the industry's growth potential.
Lloyds dropped 1.7 percent to 78.8 pence after saying it will sell shares in TSB Bank Plc to the public for 220 pence to 290 pence each. The final pricing will be announced on June 20. An initial public offering at the middle of the indicative range would give the lender a market value of 1.28 billion pounds ($2.2 billion), it said in a statement. At that price, TSB would trade below its book value, which reflects weak profitability, Oriel Securities Ltd. wrote in a note.

A Torrance neighborhood remains in shock today over the news that a local woman allegedly stabbed her three young children to death.
Deputies were sent to West 223rd Street last night and found Coronado's three children, ages three, two and two months, dead.
The children's grandmother says Coronado had called her and said she was going crazy before the children were found dead.
Neighbors say the family had been struggling financially.
Coronado's husband was apparently home at the time, but was outside working.
Coronado is now at a mental hospital being evaluated. She faces three counts of murder.

Van Fischer's independent feature ''Blink of an Eye'' begins with its protagonist, surly Tommy (Frank John Hughes) being released from a California prison after serving seven years for running drugs across the Mexican border. Mr. Fischer shoots the sequence through an amber filter, giving it the warm, gold-tinged look generally reserved for nostalgic flashbacks.
There are flashbacks here, too, though Mr. Fischer films his with a cold, bluish tint. As Tommy goes through the humiliating process of release, Mr. Fischer cuts away to a small boy, standing in the same, hunched, protective stance that Tommy has as an adult. He is approached by a man who binds his hands with a belt and suspends him from a ceiling beam. As the man, Tommy's father, beats the child with a rubber hose, little Tommy struggles to hold back his tears, knowing that a display of emotion will only urge his father on to further abuse.
It's a powerful sequence, and its ferocity overwhelms much of the gentle, low-key film that follows it. Sent to a halfway house in East Los Angeles, Tommy becomes a cook at a Catholic grade school, preparing vats of macaroni under the protective eye of Father Chavez (Castulo Guerra). One of his colleagues is an attractive teacher named Sophia (Seidy Lopez), who takes an interest in the troubled young man. Though he's barely able to speak to her, he screws up enough courage to offer her a homemade coffeecake, and soon love is in the cinnamon-scented air.
As ''Blink of an Eye'' unfolds, there are few signs of the traumatic violence established in the opening sequence. Instead of becoming an abuser himself, as standard psychology would predict, Tommy becomes a saintly figure, always ready to sacrifice himself if it means preventing one of his co-workers from falling in with a vicious street gang or saving Sophia's drug-addicted brother from a mob-sanctioned hit.Continue reading the main story
Mr. Fischer was a contractor in a Seattle suburb before deciding at 37 to become an independent filmmaker. He has sincerity and craftsmanship on his side, though these qualities aren't always enough to make a compelling movie. ''Blink of an Eye,'' which opens today at the Anthology Film Archives in the East Village, requires a bit more energy and originality to set it apart from the run of the indie pack.
Directed by Van Fischer; written by Chris Ver Wiel, based on a story by Mr. Ver Wiel and Jo Marr; director of photography, Carl Bartels; edited by Mike Murphy; music by Lysa Flores; production designer, Jennifer Cinader; produced by Ms. Marr and Richard DiSisto. At the Anthology Film Archives, 32 Second Avenue, at Second Street, East Village. Running time: 92 minutes. This film is not rated.
WITH: Frank John Hughes (Tommy), Seidy Lopez (Sophia), Joseph Bologna (Renfro), Lombardo Boyar (Guillermo), Castulo Guerra (Father Chavez), Douglas Spain (Steven) and Richard C. Sarafian (Erlik).Continue reading the main story

New York Times: WASHINGTON, Feb. 9—In the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, Bush administration officials said they had been caught by surprise when they were told on Tuesday, Aug. 30, that a levee had broken, allowing floodwaters to engulf New Orleans.
But Congressional investigators have now learned that an eyewitness account of the flooding from a federal emergency official reached the Homeland Security Department's headquarters starting at 9:27 p.m. the day before, and the White House itself at midnight.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency official, Marty Bahamonde, first heard of a major levee breach Monday morning. By late Monday afternoon, Mr. Bahamonde had hitched a ride on a Coast Guard helicopter over the breach at the 17th Street Canal to confirm the extensive flooding. He then telephoned his report to FEMA headquarters in Washington, which notified the Homeland Security Department.

Excape Plan . . . or Not . . .
Jeremy stared down in dumb amazment at the bottom of the dome where the hole in the bottom had seemingly dissapeared. Sheilding Ami with his own body, he looked up at this crazy woman. She laughed her high pitched squeal once again.
"What do you want with us?" Jeremy asked.
"She looked in his direction, an evil grin stuck to her face. "I've been watching you. I know of your poweres. All of yours. I want them, and trust me, I will have them all in good time."
"And how exactly to plan to . . . steal our abilitys?" Shadow asked.
For some reason the ladys grin dimmed a little, but not completely. "Don't worry. You'll learn soon enough."
Jeremy stared as the woman began chanting some kind of long saying. Someone tried to attack her, but realized she was pretected by some kind of Forcfield.
Someone, or something, suddenly tapped the dome. No one could here it because of it's faintness, but Jeremy could feel the slight vibration on the ceiling. He looked up and saw the tall lady with green hair on top, aparantly holding her breath in the water.
He checked back one more time with the grandma to see if she could tell the lady was on the roof, too, but she was too caught up in her incantations. He whispered to Ami that she was on the roof, and she somehow communicated it to everyone else with her mind.
He looked back up at the woman on the ceiling, and could see the slight edges of some kind of trap door that old "Aunty" here obvioulsy didn't know about.
After a few more whispers between them, they had a plan. On three, Ami would lift some of them with her Wind powers, and the rest that were too much could transform and fly themselfs to the roof. The giantess would open the latch and they could swim out.
"Now." Jeremy whispered. He felt a slight breeze from underneath him, rising to the ceiling and then circling back around the room. It slowly got more and more and more powerful as he was finally in the air, rising toward the roof. As they finally got there, the giant opened the door, and a problem they hadn't excpected popped up. opening the door on the ceiling let down tons of water through the hole, pushing them back towards the ground. Jeremy put his hands above his face, but just before he was emerged in water, Ami used her water powers to stop it. All of it stopped and was as if frozen in time. He continued to rise until his was in the water, where he held his breath and started to swim toward shore.
There they were, a random group of about twenty, all holding there breath in an underground lake, swimming away from a magical lady inside a glass dome, making some kind of crazy spells. But thats when there plan turned to Blahhh. A forcfield was suddenly encircled around them. They tried at every corner to get out, but it was hopeless. They were trapped. some of them could breath under water, the giantess and Ami, and others could change into fish, but the rest were doomed.
Jeremy could hold his breath long for most people, but definetly not forever. He began to kick at the sides of the tank hopelessly. He was already growing faint. He looked back at the dome with the crazy lady inside, smiling at him, her long fingernails pressed up against the glass.
This was it. He tried to conserve energy for as long as he could. Ami looked at him and everyone else hopelessly. She could breath, but everyone else was dieing. She swam to Jeremy.
Jeremy, though, was screaming out in his head. He was seeing colors. He felt Ami's lips touch his in a small kiss. It felt good, Infact, the it was last thing he did felt before everything became black.

DENVER (AP) Country music singer Lee Greenwood, best known for his patriotic anthem "God Bless the USA," refused to take the stage for a concert honoring veterans, police and firefighters in a dispute over his payment.
Greenwood canceled as headliner for a concert Saturday that followed the "Colorado State Parade of Honor" in downtown Denver after the organizer couldn't come up with $20,000 cash or cashier's check required by the contract, his manager said.
Jerry Bentley, Greenwood's Nashville, Tenn.-based manager, said Greenwood canceled his appearance after the concert organizer paid $10,000 in advance but offered only $2,000 in cash and a $2,000 personal check on the day of the show.
"In (Greenwood's) eyes, it's no slam or anything against veterans or policemen or firemen or any of those people," Bentley said Wednesday. "It's just a business arrangement, and somebody didn't uphold their end of the bargain."
Frank Young, who organized the parade and concert, said he had wired $14,000 of Greenwood's fee in advance and had $4,000 in cash to give the musician's road manager the day of the show.
"Mr. Bentley's facts are far from the truth," he said.
Young said he wanted to pay the remaining $2,000 with a check from the Knights of Columbus, one of four groups that agreed to pay for blocks of tickets to help finance the show.
Young said the road manager refused to accept the check and Greenwood's appearance was canceled.
"This is disgraceful," Young said.
Bentley said Greenwood and most other performers insist on cash or cashier's checks because they've been burned by worthless personal checks.

Data Exchange Standards: XML, JXDM and NIEM JIEM, IEPDs and Components Missouri Case Study How Do I Connect the Silos? Here is the Help! 1 The Business Case - Overview Exploring the value of Standards Why are standards beneficial ? How are standards cost effective ? Functional Standards: An example What are they and how do they help me as a practitioner ? Who decides what becomes a Standard ? How are Standards designed and vetted ? 2 The Business Case - Why Standards are important if you want to: SHARE DATA (speak the same language) SAVE MONEY (use the same products) LOWER RISK (increase the probability that your exchange will be interoperable with other justice entities throughout the nation) INCREASE PUBLIC SAFETY (get it there faster, more accurately, in a consumable format) INCREASE PUBLIC ACCESS (accurate information accessible through the web) 3 The Business Case - What Standards Provide On-demand real time data access by practitioners who need it to make decisions Standard products from vendors at lower cost Leverage for your legacy system investment Phased evolution to emerging technologies approach If you care about PUBLIC SAFETY, standards are important because these standards can help you deliver emergency services more quickly, with greater dependability If you care about ACCOUNTABILITY FOR THE PUBLIC'S MONEY, standards are important because they will help to significantly lower the lifecycle cost of sharing data 4 Justice & Public Safety Standards Landscape No Domain-wide standards prior to September 11, 2001 Each agency re-defined, and each vendor re-invented the wheel with every project Evident and growing need to lower cost, reduce risk, speed delivery and ensure compatibility 2004 Executive Order 13356 and Homeland Security Presidential Directive (HSPD-5) to improve information sharing 2005 Justice and Homeland Security partnership to develop National Information Exchange Model 5 XML: Building Blocks for Information Exchange XML Point-to-Point Canonical Standard 6 Data Exchange Standards: XML XML provides a natural way to build new vocabularies or languages XML tools (parsers, validators, native XML databases) are abundant, relatively inexpensive and can support any and every vocabulary that conforms to the XML standard XML allows us to express information in the operating system/computer architecture/ language independent way 7 Data Exchange Standards: XML XML can represent all parts of the information exchange Information that needs to be shared; Information about this information (who created it, when, why, etc.); Information about destination of this information (addressing, routing); Security and authorization information (sensitivity level, who can read it, how it should be disposed of, etc.); Validation and verification rules (XML schema, DTD, business rules) 8 Role of the XML business vocabulary Describing data objects relevant to the business problem in a consistent and re-usable format. XML tags provide both human-readable descriptions and computer instructions for mapping and validation. Two different organizations may express two different concepts with the same XML tag. Example: <dmv:Person.identification> in the DMV environment could mean driver's license. No further specialization is required. <immigration:Person.identification> in the ICE environment could mean passport. Business vocabularies should be reconciled for the purpose of the information exchange, creating a new vocabulary: <infoEx:Person.identification idType = {driver's license | passport}> 9 XML Vocabularies Uniform Business Language (UBL) Electronic Business XML (ebXML) Extensible Access Control Markup Language (XACML) ACORD XML for Life Insurance eXtensible Business Reporting Language (XBRL) EDXL (OASIS Emergency Management) Global Justice XML Data Model (G)JXDM) National Information Exchange Model (NIEM) 10 XML: Building blocks for information exchange JXDM started as a "grass-roots" effort to define a common XML vocabulary for criminal justice and public safety JXDM provides fairly large objects, reflecting the broad scope of the effort and attempts to accommodate needs of everyone across the wide spectrum JXDM includes constructs not "native" to criminal justice, such as health or intelligence – created without a benefit of the subject matter expertise 11 JXDM Evolution Communities of Interest Data Dictionary Reconcilliation: LegalXML, RISS, and RAP AAMVA Driver History Local, County, and State Representatives Nlets SEARCH JIEM Tool Exchanges IACP CrimNet CISA XSTF GISWG NIJ NIBRS W3C OASIS LegalXML ISO/IEC ASC X12.org XML.gov UN/CEFACT ebxml.org Standards Intelligence Community ICML US DoD DublinCore.org 12 The National Information Exchange Model (NIEM) 13 NIEM Goals and Objectives Support and enable information sharing nationally, among all branches and levels of government Extends the "grass roots", bottom up approach used by the Justice community of interest Synergy with the Federal Enterprise Architecture, especially the Data Reference Model (DRM) http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/egov/a-1-fea.html 14 JXDM and NIEM NIEM aggregates knowledge from multiple domains, where each "community of interest" (COI) maintains its own domain and contributes to the common set; NIEM, having much broader audience in mind from the beginning, took a different approach than the JXDM to develop core objects: Start with smallest, universally understood and usable; Specialize for the particular exchanges, common to some or many; Provide a space for additional specialization relevant to a specific area Separating concepts into Universal, Common and domainspecific keeps NIEM objects generally smaller, more nimble, though the number of objects is larger than that in JXDM 15 NIEM Data Component 16 NIEM data component re-use and extension Universal Person Justice Person Immigration Person 17 National Information Exchange Model (NIEM) NIEM Core (a collection of namespaces) Core Structures namespace Universal namespace Common namespace Core: jointly governed through the NIEM governing body The minimally supported set for all participating domains; universally understood; very stable; minimal or no subsetting Requires joint governance and reconciliation; but relatively stable BloodTypeCode Where tiger teams operate BloodTypeCodeType Domains Intelligence Justice namespace namespace Emergency Mgt namespace Immigration namespace NIEM Participants: (1) Bring domain content to NIEM.

"I don't want to be pessimistic, but if it is heading for the south of England, then areas that were affected in 2000 in East Anglia, Northamptonshire and Oxfordshire could be threatened," says Phil Rothwell, head of flood risk policy at the Environment Agency.
In November 2000, flooding left 8,000 homes across the country under water and caused an estimated £500m in damage.
"Millions have been spent on flood defences since then," says Rothwell, "so while we plan for the worst, we hope for the best."
Today, almost 2 million low-lying homes in England and Wales are considered bad risks by insurers and many experts believe the annual £470m spend on flood defences might have to double over the next 30 years. However, simply living on a flood plain does not mean you are at highest risk of flooding. What counts is whether you are adequately defended.
"Look at London," says Rothwell. "It's built on a flood plain. But it is defended by the Thames flood barrier and so is not at risk. The same applies to other areas."
The best way to find out if your home is at risk is to go to environment-agency.gov.uk and do a postcode search.

Vermont must have gotten hit pretty badly. My neighbor's brother who works
for the power company was told he leaves for Vermont w/ his crew tomorrow
morning and they'll be gone until after the first of the year. Her sister
in law is hacked but I told her to be glad he's not in Iraq like he was last
Christmas (he just mustered out of the Marines this summer). What's bad is
she wasn't even sure where Vermont was. I guess they don't cover trivial
things like geography in schools anymore.

Gas Pains
Tom grew up in Milwaukee, bartended in Wauwatosa in the '70s and moved here in 1984.
Commentary, observations and musings about the outdoors, life in general and maybe Tosa politics and personalities will be the order of the day. He savors a lively debate as much as terrific cooking.
Aka Bog Sucker, Bog Bird, Night Partridge, Doodle Bird, Whistling Snipe, or Pewee - the American Woodcock – Scolopax minor is a fascinating critter.
A short-legged, chunky bird with rounded wings suited to flight in heavy cover - it sports a two-and-a-half inch long bill for probing the soil in search of its principle diet - earthworms. The woodcock's mottled plumage of gray and brown with black bars resembles leaf litter- providing near perfect camouflage against the forest floor.
I delight in the woodcock's spring mating displays when I'm walking out in the early morning dark to hunt turkey. And I marvel at its droll appearance. Girlfriend lives to hunt woodcock. I guess I do too.
I give duck hunters a great deal of credit for sitting in a duck blind in the rain. But for me hunting woodcock is one of the fall season's finest pleasures. A walk in the woods, the crunch of leaves beneath your boots and the dog quartering and working the brush. Cool enough to barely break a sweat and a challenge. Woodcock won't flush until the dog is virtually upon them. Once flushed - they dart and weave amongst the alders and willows like a mad aerialist.
And they make for some good eats. I have a vision of woodcock - somehow prepared with bacon and water chestnuts - as the featured guest during cocktail hour at our deer camp this year.
Upland bird hunters throughout the Eastern United States and Canada thrill to the whistle of the woodcock's wings as it flushes from almost under foot. Outdoor enthusiasts, eagerly anticipating its sky-dance courtship ritual, await the woodcocks' return early each spring.
Unfortunately, the flush and dance of the woodcock are becoming less and less common throughout much of the birds' range as populations continue their long-term downward trend. You see, woodcock breed primarily in very young forests or abandoned farm fields covered with small trees and shrubs. These habitats are rapidly disappearing as forests mature and fields become housing developments and strip malls. – Ruffed Grouse Society
Dakota pheasants are on the hunting calendar before too long.

Dan: BackMature
I was moving back first thing I was gonna do was say hi to Aimee, then of course find a job. I thought exitedly as I packed my things.
" See you later , crummy penticton, fairwell." I say happily zipping up my last bag of possesions I had about 2 bags of them I really haven't settled down anywhere yet so I just went where the wind blew , and it was back to my old home town. My Dad was falling ill with cancer aproximatly a year to live. I was pretty torn about that but excited to see all of my old friends. The flight back wasn't long and moving into my apartment only took a few hours, Jet lag took hold and I fell asleep on my bags till the next morning.
I wake up knowing saying hi to everyone was going to have to wait seeing I only had one chair as funirture. With my wallet full I bout my self a T.V stand, pull out bed couch, crappy dining room set , and cours a real bed and appliance. One I lugged that all back into my apartment and a new home. I knew I was broke and probably owed some money to the bank. Now it was time to drop by Aimee, I wonder if she knew if I was here.

LOLZ: Joey Barton makes 'you've got a big nose' gesture to Zlatan Ibrahimovic
LOLZ: Joey Barton makes 'you've got a big nose' gesture to Zlatan Ibrahimovic
Not many people would publicly make fun of blackbelt taekwondo expert Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
Not many people are like Joey Barton.
The English midfielder was involved in a comedy moment towards the end of the first half of PSG-Marseille's cup match on Wednesday night, as Barton mocked Zlatan by drawing attention to the Swede's nose.
Barton, unhappy by an Ibra challenge which went the way on the OM enforcer, left the scene of the collision by mimicking an oversized cartoon-nose in Zlatan's direction.
Zlatan, who had already scored moments before to break the deadlock, reacted by laughing Barton's gesture off.
Watch Joey Barton troll Zlatan below. A GIF is below the fold.

After the Fall, Part Four
"After the Fall, Part Three" was the third issue of the Angel: After the Fall comic book series.
SynopsisAngel, having been dragged off by Illyria in the previous chapter, gravely wounds him. Angel reveals that the Hell dimension has been playing havoc with Illyria's powers, and she is once again time-skipping as she did in "Time Bomb". Spike instructs that she calm down, but her attentions are focused elsewhere when Angel's dragon makes a sudden appearance. She battles the creature until Spike instructs her to stop; Connor shows up then, and tells his father that he and Spike have been working together. Spike has begun patrolling the city for survivors as well, and even began allowing them to stay with him at his new residence when the other shelters became too crowded; Spike's "Hugh Hefner" lifestyle has only been part of an act. Angel then confronts the Lords of Los Angeles, and challenges them to a battle for the city in two days. On the final page, Angel's inner monologue reveals his wounds are mortal, and that he his no longer a vampire.
The story is set after "Not Fade Away", but before "Aftermath".

Background: Historically, clinicians have recognized the existence of the clinical syndrome of childhood wheezy bronchitis. In the late 1960s, children with this syndrome were relabeled as having asthma, and the term wheezy bronchitis was abandoned. In a 1989 study of a cohort that originally had been studied in 1964, we reported that those who had childhood wheezy bronchitis had as adults attained lung function similar to that of healthy control subjects and had less significant symptoms than did those who had experienced childhood asthma, in whom lung function was reduced. In this study, we reexamined these subjects 12 years later to determine whether the improved outcome of the wheezy bronchitis group had been maintained.
Methods: In 2001, we followed up the 283 participants of the 1989 study, who were now aged 45 to 50 years. In interviews, respiratory symptoms and smoking status were assessed. Spirometry was measured.
Results: One hundred seventy-seven subjects (63%) completed the study. After adjusting for age, height, gender, socioeconomic status, smoking status, and number of pack-years smoked, the current FEV1 in the childhood asthma group (mean, 2.45 L; 95% confidence interval, 2.29 to 2.62) was significantly lower than the wheezy bronchitis group (2.78 L, 95% confidence interval, 2.64 to 2.91; p < 0.01) and the control group (2.96 L; 95% confidence interval, 2.83 to 3.1; p < 0.01). The difference between the wheezy bronchitis group and the control subjects was not significant (p = 0.06). Between 1989 and 2001, both the childhood wheezy bronchitis group (p < 0.01) and the childhood asthma group (p = 0.01) had greater declines in FEV1 than did the control group (asthma group decline, − 0.75 L [95% confidence interval, − 0.66 to − 0.84]; wheezy bronchitis group decline, − 0.75 L [95% confidence interval, − 0.68 to − 0.83]; control group decline, − 0.59 L [95% confidence interval, − 0.52 to − 0.67]). In 2001, the asthma group had more symptoms than did the wheezy bronchitis group (p < 0.01), who were more symptomatic than the control group (p < 0.01).
Conclusion: Those with childhood wheezy bronchitis, having achieved normal lung function in earlier adulthood, now show a more rapid decline in lung function than did control subjects. If this rate of decline persists, these subjects may develop obstructive airways disease in later life.
