Photo of the Month – February 2011
One of the greatest spectacles in nature is the return of the wild Pacific salmon to their natal rivers to spawn. By the millions they flood into the coast in autumn and in their arduous journey home, they feed almost the entire rainforest world.
Inspired by the makers of the BBC film "The Great Salmon Run / Grizzly Wilderness", part of the 2009 series "Nature's Most Amazing Events", Maple Leaf guest Jacques Record sat by a waterfall that salmon were jumping up, to try to capture their incredible, muscular feats.
We have also included a few others from the series, in recognition of the salmon and Jacques' dedication to the shots, on his Great Bear Rainforest trip.

Beliefs about race and ethnicity influence our cultures, politics, and relationships. What is race? What is ethnicity? This group explores those concepts.
Location: Global
Members: 234
Latest Activity: Apr 14
Racism and the effects of ethnocentrism are alive and well in the 21st century. Racism and humanism are incompatible by definition.
The most human, and humane, thing that we can do is acknowledge and support the humanity of people who are different from ourselves. Curiosity about what makes us human, by necessity, includes curiosity about our human ethnic heritage.
We are incredibly enriched by immersing ourselves in a diverse world. We are intellectually and emotionally impoverished when we exclude others who are not our mirror image.
This discussion group includes many topics about race and ethnicity. Feel free to comment to new threads, or resurrect old threads, if any spark your interest.
My 2 cents. Daniel W.

Ruth, you can also see Daniel Rarela's "I'll be damned if I let Martin Luther King Jr. get whitewashed" memes directly on Twitter (in addition to other postings of his):
Good link on MLK memes, Flying Atheist. Unfortunately the site tried to force me to sign up to continue reading. I routinely just shut a link when that happens.
Yes! Here's the direct link, for Twitterers who'd like to "like", retweet, etc.: https://twitter.com/TeaPainUSA/status/810639549177139201
Interesting, Daniel. Thanks.
Who Decides Who Counts as Native American? Interesting article in NY Times. The article focuses on the Nooksack, a tribe in NW Washington State amd SW British Columbia. The tribe threw out more than 300 members, deciding they weren't Nooksack enough.
Disenrolling members is not new in Native American tribes. Part of the problem is that when resources are communal, the more members there are, the smaller the slice of the pie. The same goes for Indian Casino profits, which in some tribes are divided among members. The more members, the smaller the share.
Interestingly, since several tribes - including Cherokee - enslaved black people, when slavery ended, those black people, who had no choice in where they were living at that time, were included as members of the tribes. But in modern times, that slice of the pie issue came up again, and the Cherokee Tribe, for one, removed 1,000 black people, whose ancesters they bought, from their tribe. Which is sort of like if the United States had send black people to Africa after generations of forced interbreeding among different African nationalities, not to mention had children from white men via rape, such that many "belonged" nowhere.
It's an interesting topic for racism, inclusion, exclusion, ethnicity. The old canard that only white people can be racist falls apart when we see one non-white oppressed people, oppress another non-white people whose ancestors they enslaved, or oppress others of their "own" because of arbitrary rules of what defines "use" vs. "them.:
GG, yes, Daryl Davis makes the important point of distinction about wanting to return to a better time. Ask any "minority" group what better time in the past they would like to return to and I guarantee they will have a different answer.
Catching up here... in the video Carl posted, Daryl Davis makes important points about the racist and white supremacist code language, the dog whistles that proved crucial in recent US politics, words that "ring a bell... that's only heard by certain people." Every American politician wants to "make America great"; tRump's one crucial additional word, without which he might have decisively lost the election, was "make America great again", resonating with people who'd like to return to the days of segregation and unapologetic white privilege.
Similarly, he talks about how the rise of the Tea Party and its slogan of "take our country back" didn't happen under presidents Jimmy Carter (a Democrat) or Bill Clinton (a Democrat). "Take our country back" doesn't (just) mean "back to Republican rule". It echoed a Klan rallying cry; meaning take our country back to segregation, so their little boys and little girls wouldn't have to go to school with "little n-words".

Walls and their purpose
Life and breathing in.I read a lot these days when on route to work,and on the way back.I mainly pay attention to what is around me when I am requested an interaction with strangers,but in all I am isolated by this wall I have put between me and the world.
Not to keep them out,but me in.
I face so much of different people at work on a daily base in 7 out of 7 in a weekly basis and after a while,I need to recharge my batteries and I seek silence hence the wall.
I make myself not care but it is hard when you see so much of what people try and hide behind a smile of bravery to the outside world.We carry with us so many masks in our daily activities from correct comments who are politically correct to actions we trully do not believe in,but we carry on with a non realistic smile and a few more ideas that will never be heard unless one like me,stops and asks some unconvienient questions.
I have realised that most of us spend all our lives surronded by people who will not talk to them,really talk.
About anything,nothing just let them talk.
We are human beings and trough communication we establish links of society and from there we grow as a community and as a hole
So,I talk but most of all I listen to stories of lost and gain love ,of children who are in foreign countries fighting a war they have no place in,of dreams of uni and making a family and of when the baby is due,of how this little girl is becoming a woman and so on.
I listen to the steps of humans when they go about their business and when they lower their own walls and what makes them human surface and for a blink of a second I see something there and it is too that I react and my own wall is no longer need it.

We saw some of the islands the make up the Palm Jebel Ali, but couldn't see a good view of all (you need to be in the air for that). We saw a court for beach tennis which is played on sand but no one was playing. Next we wanted to go to Burj Kalifa. So decided to try a taxi since there were a couple sitting there. We asked the first car if he took credit card and he said yes. Wasn't ...

When we returned to the ship we were pretty hot so we had a nightcap in the wheelhouse. What a ...

"If they read the Bible for themselves, they would leave the Romanist cult"
Sadly, the ones that do- as evident from the protestant posters on here- are radical fundamentalist. We wish they could remain and be good Catholics, but since they won't we gotta say good bye.
On the flip side, the prominent or notable Evangelicals that are coming into the Catholic Church is staggering. Nobody in your circles will talk about this. These people are interested in truth. You are not.
#418747 Jan 29, 2013
Wow Ox, I think you're trying to imply something, but I'm not sure what.
I answered your question.
I don't believe the Church had a name until 'Catholic' was used. I doubt it was first used in 107 AD. I think it was earlier. None-the-less, 107 AD is the first documented usage.
The evidence of the word Catholic- describing the Church Christ started - was written by a disciple of the Apostle John.
He was ordained a Bishop by an actual Apostle.
So I highly doubt he'd make up a different church without Johns consent.
I'm glad you're reading the early Church fathers writings.
Most Protestant ignore them for obvious reasons.(the first century Church sounds really really Catholic)

Each of us, as Catholics< make a point of "individually reading and studying the bible" on our own. The Catholic Catechism from Jesus Christs One True Catholic Church is a guide to our interpretation of Sacred Scripture as there are many, many verses, parables and writings that can be interpreted and better yet "mis-interpreted in ways, not compatible to the "true interpretation that was originally "handed down: by the Early Church Fathers, who formed the Canon of Scripture in 382, 393 and 397....Paul in 1 Tim 3:15 gives us guidance in the TRUTH when he calls "the Church (not the Bible) the pillar, pinnacle and foundation of the TRUTH. We as Catholics, study, listen, believe and adhere to the TRUTH of the bible, each and ever day, on our own, and at daily Mass. It is the "only" TRUE, authenticated and verifiable interpretation that, we as Catholics, can be positively "sure of" as TRUTH. Jesus established ONLY ONE TRUTH!.... Not 42,000+ contradicting, conflicting and inconsistent interpretations of the bible which is the direction that Protestants have taken since the Reformation!!
#418754 Jan 29, 2013
If you chucked Catholicism because of that, then you chucked it for other reasons.
The abuse thing makes all of us sick. But you need to remember, its no more a problem in the CC then any other group on the planet. But the fact that its from an ordained Priest; a man of God, should make any human cringe. But its important to remember, these skum sinned and violated the moral teachings of the Catholic Church. The Bishops that covered it up (whether it was for forgiveness of the guilty or concerns about their image, is inexcusable as well. The good news is that this so-called cover up should never happen again, because of new protocols in place. The Church is tackling this issue head on, with boldness.
Quick example of new policies in place: I volunteer for 'project home' in the Twin Cities. Every year the CC - along with many Protestant Churches, open up their doors in MN for homeless families. I had to attend a mandatory training called 'Virtus training'. This is a 3 hr class that the Catholic Church requires ALL laity, clergy and employers to go through in order to work or volunteer in Catholic schools or Churches. None of the Protestant churches participating in Project Home required this- yet, statistically, they had/have the same problems of child sexual abuse as the CC. I'm not taking anything away from the noble cause they are doing with the Homeless. I'm just pointing out one example of how the CC combating this issue.

Hi Clay, I remember when you were a newcomer to this thread. Hope all is well with you.
The following truth should shake you to your core, if you can be brutally honest with yourself:
Peter was married. This fact alone should make you realize that if a prophet is wrong in one tiny aspect, he is a false prophet.
The supposed first pope was a humble disciple who had a wife and a mother-in-law.
Clay, this is serious. For once, please suspend your faith in the Roman Catholic hierarchyand its so-called infallible prophets, and turn, ever so slightly, in the direction of truth.

A man noticed a woman in the grocery store with a three-year-old
girl in her cart.
As they passed the cookie section, the little girl asked for
cookies and her mother told her no.
The little girl immediately began to have a conniption fit, and
the mother said quietly, "Now Missy, we just have half of the
aisles left to go through, don't be upset. It won't be long."
In the candy aisle, the little girl began to shout for treats.
When mom said she couldn't have any, she began to kick her
mother and scream. The mother said softly, "There, there,
Missy, don't cry, only two more aisles to go and then we'll be
checking out."
When they got to the checkout stand, the little brat immediately
began to reach for the gum and freaked out when her mom said she
couldn't have any.
The mother patiently said, "Missy, we'll be through this
checkout stand in five minutes and then you can go home and have
a bottle and a nice snooze."
The man followed them out to the parking lot and stopped the
woman to compliment her. "I couldn't help noticing how patient
you were with little Missy," he said.
The mother sighed and replied,
"Oh, no, my little girl's name is Francine,
I'm Missy.

Do you take "Paul's" teaching over Jesus'?
How does anyone know "what the angels were told by God", if not present when the supposed direction occurred?
Why do you believe men?
#418760 Jan 29, 2013
First of all, "this prophecy" refers to the Book of Revelation only. Secondly, the "one who reads aloud" would be the Church since she and only she was given the authority by Christ. The author of the Book of Revelation, St. John, is in the Church.*Not* every Tom, Dick, and Harry who decides on his own that *he* has authority (i.e. self-proclaimed paper popes). He doesn't and never will.
Thirdly, to hear implies oral teaching which is how the early Church spread the Gospel. Nothing was written, nothing was read. So according to your private interpretation above, those in the early Church weren't blessed!
Fourthly, you are attempting to use Revelation to trump Acts 8:26-40 which very clearly states we are *not* to interpret scripture privately but to go to those in authority, the Church...in this case St. Philip.
Too many errors, Hank. What you're proposing is not the faith taught by the apostles.
Saint Paul, MN
#418761 Jan 29, 2013
God existed before the apostles, but you didn't. Your 'ordination', while probably exciting for you and impressive to your co-religionists, is not a valid ordination because you didn't receive it by a successor of the apostles.
Like I said, you may be good reader of the bible and a nice person to other pentecostals, but I'm sorry, you are not a real bishop.

Posted by ESPN.com's Mike Sando
Paola Boivin of the Arizona Republic explains why Cardinals receiver Larry Fitzgerald is an NFL spokesman for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. His mother, Carol, died from the condition. Boivin: "When she discovered a lump in her breast when Larry was 13, the subsequent diagnosis of cancer that had spread to her lymph nodes was upsetting, but the family, thanks to Carol, was equipped to handle the tough conversations. ... Every discussion was frank. When she shared her options for treatment, they supported her decision against a mastectomy. ... She fought hard and for several of Larry's high school years, the family believed she had won the battle. The cancer came back with a vengeance. The family was crushed."
Bob McManaman of the Arizona Republic says Texans coach Gary Kubiak has high praise for Cardinals defensive lineman Darnell Dockett. Kubiak: "I tell you what, Dockett's the best player I've seen on film this year. You know as a coach, every year you start studying teams and preparing for teams and he's the best individual player I've seen. I mean, he's something for us to deal with coming this weekend."
Kent Somers of the Arizona Republic checks in with Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie, who says he can catch a football despite a broken finger. Coach Ken Whisenhunt: "He hasn't been able to catch, it didn't seem like, the first couple games anyway. I mean that in a positive way. Maybe this will help him."
Darren Urban of azcardinals.com says it's tough to evaluate an offensive line.
Also from Urban: The Cardinals and Texans are dealing with the weight of added expectations.
Jim Moore of seattlepi.com checks in with Seahawks defensive end Lawrence Jackson, whose courteous and thoughtful nature made for an interesting interview. Jackson: "I can't get mad if a coach is yelling at me. He's not yelling at Lawrence, he's yelling at No. 95."
Greg Johns of seattlepi.com says Seahawks linebacker Lofa Tatupu will match the first $10,000 donated to tsunami relief in American Samoa. Tatupu: "My dad was born in America Samoa and I still have family there. Every donation will help provide relief to those affected by the disaster."
Danny O'Neil of the Seattle Times says the Seahawks' season is either half full or half empty. I think it's half empty pending the outcome of the next two games.
Eric D. Williams of the Tacoma News Tribune explores links between Seahawks running back Justin Forsett and Jaguars running back Maurice Jones-Drew. Williams: "The two forged a relationship when Forsett was a sophomore at the University of California-Berkeley. Jones-Drew's strength and conditioning coach in high school when he attended De La Salle High in the Bay Area, Mike Blasquez, is the head strength and conditioning coach for the athletics program at Cal, so the two running backs have worked out together for the past four years during the offseason at the East Bay college."
John Crumpacker of the San Francisco Chronicle says 49ers left tackle Joe Staley is looking forward to facing Falcons pass-rusher John Abraham. Staley: "He's been in the league for a long time and put up really big numbers. I really like going against guys that are considered the best pass-rushers in the league. It gives me a chance to showcase what I can do."
Also from Crumpacker: Newly signed receiver Michael Crabtree worked with the scout team in practice.
Matt Maiocco of the Santa Rosa Press-Democrat fills in blanks on MC Hammer's role in the Crabtree saga. 49ers president Jed York: "We have a mutual friend who introduced us. Hammer has a good relationship with Deion Sanders. Eugene (Parker) was his agent. And he (Hammer) has a good relationship with Eugene. And I think it was a good conduit to get everybody together."
Lowell Cohn of the Santa Rosa Press-Democrat says Crabtree's refusal to sign the 49ers' previous offer was an exercise in futility. Cohn: "Crabtree refused to say the holdout was worth it because it wasn't worth it. It was worthless and he lost face big time. He said he looks at the world in a different way. He sure does. He realizes he's not the center of the universe, just another player who has to prove himself in the NFL -- he hasn't even begun to do that."
Bill Coats of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch says Rams running back Steven Jackson is looking forward to wearing a Rams throwback jersey Sunday. If only Jackie Slater could block for him and Preston Dennard could line up at receiver.
Also from Coats: Nate Jones is the Rams' only healthy receiver.
Jim Thomas of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch says Rams coach Steve Spagnuolo and Vikings coach Brad Childress became good friends and confidants working together under Andy Reid in Philadelphia. Childress: "The thing that I know about Spags and that staff down there, and having been involved in a couple turnarounds, I know that he's going to do it the right way. He's got younger, hungry guys. I know he's going to be positive with 'em. And I think you have to be positive with 'em. He's got a tremendous, tremendous (defensive) scheme. You see him putting people in positions to make plays. All you've got to do is look at a little bit of that tape, and it'll get your attention in a hurry. Because what they're doing is extremely sound. It's just a matter of time before they get it right."

Passions Dawn(1985)
A novel by Elaine Barbieri
Love me tomorrow the green eyed Rheva cried as the handsome stranger carried her to the bed. The spirited rebel had struggled with all her might against his manly strength. She never stopped thinking that he was her enemy, a Yankee who had killed her family and destroyed her home. Then something in the way he held her made Rheva resist no more. Willingly she melted in his fierce embrace, returned his ardent kiss and surrendered her heart to Passions Dawn

Australia is the eighth most generous donor in the OECD's Development Assistance Committee, delivering USD 5.44 billion in ODA last year, or 0.36% of its gross national income.
The forces driving Asia's rapid growth–new technology, globalisation, and market-oriented reform–are also fuelling rising inequality. Some income divergence is inevitable in times of fast economic development, but that shouldn't make for complacency, especially in the face of rising inequality in people's opportunities to develop their human capital and income-earning capacity.
This day-long workshop will bring together the World Bank Independent Evaluation Group (IEG) and the OECD DAC Network on Development Evaluation, along with other key actors and development finance institutions, to share experiences on evaluating private sector-oriented development co-operation.
The Southeast Asian (SEA) region is one of the most dynamic in the world. It is in a period of transition as its national economies become strongly integrated into global knowledge networks. Science and technology (S&T) offer opportunities for countries to 'move up the value chain'. A better understanding of existing capabilities helps enhance mutually beneficial S&T and innovation co-operation between SEA and OECD countries.
This review provides a quantitative and qualitative assessment of Southeast Asian countries' capacity in S&T and innovation. A regional synthesis highlights current performance and intra- and extra-regional knowledge circulation, including flows between the Southeast Asian region and the established centres of knowledge production such as the EU, Japan and the United States. The country profiles describe the dynamics of national innovation systems and their relation to international knowledge flows, taking into account the wider framework conditions for innovation.
The OECD is calling for a new development framework in this statement to the Joint IMF-World Bank Development Committee.

Es necesario por tanto que las reformas fiscales constituyan una pieza clave del plan estratégico de desarrollo de un país en el medio y largo plazo. En este sentido, este informe sitúa algunas posibilidades de reforma en materia fiscal en la República Dominicana en un contexto regional e internacional de buenas prácticas.
English, PDF, 2,395kb
Tax reforms must play a central role in a country's medium- and long-term development strategy. The report analyses some of the possible tax reforms in the Dominican Republic within a regional and international context of good practices. The fiscal recommendations are made within the context of the institutional frameworks, with particular emphasis on matters of economic policy that should be considered in the reform process.
Eliminating hunger and malnutrition, and achieving wider global food security are among the most intractable problems humanity faces. While many once poor countries are now developing rapidly, the world as a whole is unlikely to meet the first Millennium Development Goal target of halving, between 1990 and 2015, the proportion of the world's population who suffer from hunger.
"Crowdsourcing" pools the strength of the many to perform complex tasks–everything from funding a film to sequencing DNA. At its heart is trust–not a blanket belief in great institutions, but rather the confidence between individuals that each will do the right thing. Its power is being increasingly felt today, even in the world of international development.
Economic growth has played a major role in lifting people out of poverty. However, there is increasing evidence that many of these people did not move up to the middle classes but into an intermediate state of "vulnerability". Poverty continues to affect millions of people around the world, said OECD Secretary-General.

text: ST. PAUL, Minn., Oct. 1, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- H.B. Fuller (NYSE: FUL) announces two advances for the Liquamelt ® adhesive system–a bulk feed option that eliminates the need for on-floor staff to refill the adhesive reservoir and a gateway I/O option that will allow the system's operation to be monitored by the packaging machine control system. "These new features, when combined with the potential energy savings, maintenance savings, safety and eco-advantages of the Liquamelt ® cool adhesive technology, present a compelling alternative to traditional hot melt adhesive sealing," said Dave Mancuso, business development manager/Liquamelt of H.B. Fuller. (Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20121001/CG82797) The bulk feed capability is accomplished by the delivery of Liquamelt ® adhesive in a large container that is replaced when emptied. Typically hot melt adhesive is dispensed from the hot tank of a conventional system or from a reservoir close to the hot melt system. The bulk delivery option allows containers to be located remotely and the Liquamelt adhesive to be safely transferred from the sealed containers to the packaging machines through common non-heated fluid hoses. As Liquamelt ® adhesive is supplied at room temperature and heated just prior to application by the Turboactivator™ technology located inside the packaging machine, heated transport hoses are not required. Three bulk container sizes are offered: 30 liter drum, 50 gallon drum, and 2,500 pound tote. These options maintain the Liquamelt system's cool on delivery –hot on demand operating approach by easily delivering room temperature liquid adhesive from a variety of package options to the Liquamelt application equipment reservoir. Providing a closed, continuous fill operation is important in reducing waste, resulting in lower overall operating costs. The gateway I/O option enables external communication and provides machine health status. It will allow monitoring of the Liquamelt adhesive system by the OEM equipment and ensure efficient and reliable line operation.

The page count in our network printers is not displayed, snmp is enabled as public, authentication is enabled in the scan, what else can be made?
2 Replies
Sep 29, 2011 at 7:40 UTC
It depends on the printer and Spiceworks really, it could be that the printer simply isn't supplying that data in its SNMP feed or it could be that Spiceworks doesn't fully support that printer and so isn't showing the data.
Sep 30, 2011 at 4:25 UTC
If you are scanning the printer with an SNMP account set to public, and the printer is set to allow scans, then Spiceworks should normally pick that information up.
There might be a few printers that don't behave properly. I had an earlier issue in which we worked on the HP 2035n not reporting page counts properly. You might want to take a look through that thread. If you have a model of printer not mentioned, then let support know.

Sydney, Australia – Father's Day is the perfect opportunity to show dad the appreciation he deserves for being a great father with a unique and thoughtful gift.

VATICAN CITY — Pope Francis has advised parents not to allow smartphones at the dinner table, to help restore a sense of family togetherness and to teach their children about the importance of relationships. In his weekly catechesis in St. Peter's Square, the pope said that family togetherness is "a sure thermometer for measuring the health of relationships." (Read More....)
VATICAN CITY — The Bible is so dangerous that some Christians risk persecution to have one. But for Pope Francis, its life-changing role in daily life is important too. "The Bible is not meant to be placed on a shelf, but to be in your hands, to read often — every day, both on your own and together with others," he wrote in the prologue to a Bible for youth in Germany.

Truck Hustle
this wiki
- "The Triads have this big chunk of brown they're desperate to get rid of. Talking about it all over town. Wanting to offload it at any price. They think it's cursed or something. Prove it is. Take it from them."
- ― Phil Bell
Truck Hustle is the first mission the player does for Phil Bell in Grand Theft Auto IV, in which Bell asks Niko to steal a truck filled with heroin from the Algonquin Triads.
Mission objectives
In order to complete the mission the player must:
- Go to the alley
- Steal the truck
- The truck is escaping. Move to its rear to grab on
- Make your way to the front of the truck
- Drive the truck to the old mansion
After the cutscene, you are instructed to head to an alley beside Long John Avenue. When you arrive and walk into the yellow arrow, another cutscene engages, showing the Triads arriving. You are given instructions to steal a Mule in which the heroin is loaded. You are then thrown into a possible shootout.
There are 2 ways to proceed - one is to take the truck by force via gunfight. The other is to sneak around to truck and climb on as it begins to drive away.
- Take the truck by force
To take the truck by force, take out your Carbine Rifle or Rocket Launcher and use the element of surprise to eliminate as many goons as you can. Do not get out of cover before most, if not, all of the men are down. Destroy the vehicles as the men use them as cover. Once the way is clear, run to the Triads' truck at the back while shooting any last goons. A Triad driver enters the truck and starts to drive away. Run to the back of the truck. A cutscene shows Niko jumping onto the truck as it's swerving through traffic. It is advised to call Dwayne's backups if you choose to fight your way to the truck.
- Sneak around to truck
The shootout is one way to obtain the truck. Another is by can sneaking and jumping over the fence (go around the fence and steal the truck as it is driving off). It is best to have Body Armor on because some of the goons have powerful weapons, although the brick wall provides good cover from them.
Once the cutscene begins, repeatedly tap the Run button to make Niko climb the truck. As Niko is climbing, use the controls shown to keep a good grip on the truck. As the truck swerves, Niko is likely to fall to one side of the truck. To quickly get back on the truck, tap the run/sprint button repeatedly. Once Niko gets to the front of the truck's roof, a cutscene starts. Niko smashes open the passenger window and gets into the truck. The Triad tries to shoot Niko with a handgun, while Niko fights back with the gun and manages to turn it around and shoot the Triad in the head.
Once you regain Niko's control, pick up the pistol ammo and get back into the truck. Drive it around a few corners and then go up Frankie's hill. (Phil's nephew) The hill path will lead straight to the nephew, and in the ending cutscene Niko hands over the drugs.
Video Walkthrough
- After the Triads arrived and before open fire, if you call Dwayne for backup, those two backups will start shooting every triads in range, and the triads just stand still until dead or Niko shows his head out (however this glitch does not work on the PC version).
- Right after the first cutscene, Ray Boccino can be seen driving off. If you attempt to open his door, it will be locked, but Niko will hold on for a few seconds. During these few seconds, the car travels at unbelievable speed. Ray's car is also indestructible.
- It is possible to run towards the truck and steal it without killing the Triads, although they will shoot at Niko and the truck might be driving off.
- If you try to steal a car to block the truck it will move out of the way and escape. Even if you trap it between a wall and your car the driver will be completely invulnerable even when shot in the head repeatedly with an automatic weapon. Also if you do manage to trap the truck you can't carjack it as the carjacking button does not work.
- In this mission, it is not possible to fall off the truck (as seen in this video at minute 10:54).
- The sequence when you must move up to the cab and the cutscene where Niko breaks the window with his feet and swings in is probably a reference to the same stunt done in Raiders of the Lost Ark.

Swelling in face due to acne or tissue damage? (Photos)
I got a pimple after eating oily food. I tried to pop the pimple but only clear fluid came out and I seem to have made it worse. There seems to be some type of swelling under the surface of my skin. That pimple left a scab and today if fell off, so my skin is smooth but I still have swelling in my face. It doesn't feel like a pimple because the skin isn't sensitive. It is hard to move my face. I was wondering if it's possible I damaged the tissue in my face from trying to pop that pimple.
Doctor Answers 1
Firmness after popping a pimple
There is inflammation in the skin in this area. It could represent an infection of simple a reaction to the trauma. If it doesn't settle down in a few days, go to see a doctor. I don't think permanent damage has been created. It is usually best not to manipulate a pimple this aggressively.

Introducing Newtonstein and Keiko
On the problem of the calculation of the moon's orbit of the earth, Isaac Newton is reported to have said, "It causeth my head to ache." The heavenly bodies orbit on ellipses, their primary bodies located at one of the two foci of an ellipse, due to the gravitation of the primary body, as the earth is primary to the moon and the sun to the earth. Due to the sun's interaction with the moon, the problem is not exactly solvable.
I had left school in Kansas and went to visit Texas, or as one might say, changed Coke to Pepsi. It broke my heart to leave school and it's hard to tell the story. So let's put it another way, that I am sleeping, that this is dreaming. It's easy when compared to mythic figures like the age thirty-five hedge fund manager enjoying a Friday night in Manhattan, or the age forty-five billionaire on a Saturday night in Dubai, or the age twenty-five hacker, having received a hundred million dollars in venture capital to grow her company, is hacking away on a new kind of movie experience on a Sunday night in San Francisco. Compared to these folks, I am asleep, sleeping, dreaming, even snoring. It's okay. I get it and I think you will, too. This way I can wake up when finished here, and it will have been a kind of sad dream, an odd occurrence or likely aberration or purgative discourse, waking to follow the yellow brick dust in the wind.
Erica and I are watching an interactive movie, directed by yours truly, compiled for the first time in late October of that year, some twelve ago, about five years before she married Richard. I want you to know foremost that I love beauty. I love it the way we say we love life. It's unfortunate and goes not recommended. One moves onward and upward in this world by loving the power of such things, their use and utility. Love the power of life, the power of love, the power of song. I see I have been in love with beauty qua beauty, neglecting reverence to all her intents and purposes. Do not do this, or you will suffer, shepherd in wolf's garb, political.
So I left school over a beauty of one curious and one beholden eye, as Helen before Troy. You can call me Professor Neko, she said, or Dr. Neko. Let my name equal Johan. One can think of me as Johan Burke. When thinking of Neko, I found it best to use new names to keep myself strong. And so, as it pleases, let ours bespeak ourselves, so that we can better approximate a solution to the problem.
Imagine a binary solar system of two stars. Let the earth orbit these two suns. For ease of mind, imagine there is a great giant invisible star about which the smaller two stars pertain to orbit. In this way we can see an order of magnitude beyond our own sun, earth, and moon system. A giant star, two suns, earth, and moon system. One already feels an import of this variegated dreamlife. We thank the viewer for his time and her nature, regarding our predisposition to establish and perpetuate by order and system, our desire elucidating the want for as much, ingratiating and betrayed as it sounds.
We feel something suddenly and unexpected, a mild frisson of a hint of anger and insight and boredom and realize we are dreaming, though we cannot remember what we were dreaming about just a moment ago. Was it about someone we knew a long time ago? Was it someone in a crowd who resembled another? And the selfsame efflorescence, and briefly we are afloat above the ground, situated in the lotus position, hovering above the sidewalk sketched with oak and maple leaves, rising to crest above obstacles along the way, along the shade in a sense of warmth and peace. Your willpower does the work of raising and stooping your body under branches and over the hedgerows and gateways. It is warm and calm, in the golden evening light. Your will opening your limbs and stretching them out as you begin to swim through the air, swimming through the air along the treetops and over the homes and the parks.
A falcon appears before us, moving quickly but steadily, on intervals soaring and swooping, seeming to allow us to hold pace as it darts downward some distance, catching an updrift then and continuing to soar on outstretched wings, black and sleek and calm. A call is heard to the falcon from below and it darts sideways and we follow in a great arcing parabolic motion back around the other way, towards the calling sound, elevating farther as the falcon sweeps around, encircling the falconer, a dark figure standing on the street, keeping watch on the bird. It is warmer and calmer farther above the street. The dark figure, a woman, chirps a longer call and the falcon expands its course outward and upward and we follow languidly, flying and flowing. The peace and warmth is palpable as fruit.
The falconer chirps twice and the bird careens on a tangent and we follow. For several minutes we drift along behind it, warmth running like the currents of time through us, until we lose track of time and feel only the warmth and the swooping oscillation of the falcon. It takes upward to a great height, the sky darkening and cooling, the stars shimmering, then the falcon angles downward, screeches, angling straight downward. The scream of the falcon breaks our rhythm and we fly harder, willing ourselves after the falcon, knowing it will jut sideways as we pierce the veil into the great below. Through the emerald and ochre canvas into the below, radiating a kind of light that our scales absorb without harming us, towards the glowing lake. Blasting upon the water, diving into the lake, our scales absorbing its burn without harming us. Heaving a stomachful of the fluid it loosens the knots inside of us and we bear down and leap upwards, toward the surface from the bottom, crushing bones underfoot, emerging and rocketing on a line towards the pinhole of twilight in the painted sky, the puncture mending itself behind us as we enter unharmed back into the middle world.
The falcon is spiraling upward in the atmosphere, waiting under the cool, midnight blue of the starlit, shimmering heavens. The falcon leads us to the living world, towards the falconer. We feel our purposes and powers, expectant, brazen and ready for command, encircling the falconer. She has walked outside the city to the airport, calling the falcon to her arm. We touch down on the airstrip, scorching the tarmac. The falconer soothes the falcon, lulling and humming. "Good," she says, opening its cage. She locks the cage and paces toward us. She appears less human and more phantasmic as she approaches, now kaleidoscopic, now cobaltic, a blue dragon. She thanks us for helping her. In the feeling of loving grace, her aspect returns to the shape of her living being, assimilating her living form, becoming human again. We also return to living, human form, as time and gravity, humor and humility, resume, and we remember life as it happens.
"I have something," I said, tired from the flight, handing her a medallion. She wonders about it and I say it's for good luck, that it belonged to my grandmother. "When something good happened to her," I said, "she held it, meditating, asking angels to bless it for good luck." She holds the medal in her hand, asking what is it. "It was my grandfather's, before he died, from the war. He did the same when he got back to base after bombing the Nazis." She looked at me strangely, asking why it should be hers, saying it should better stay in the family. "I like you and I want you to have it." Again she looked at me strangely. "I like you too, Burke."
She drove me back to Lawrence from Kansas City. My roommates were out. She came in and I showered as she watched TV. We both had work in the morning and went to bed early.

One of the best things about college is that you get to decide who you hang out with and what you do. Are you going to check out the party scene? Or are you the type of person who hangs out in their dorm whenever possible? Or are you the type of person that isn't sure where you will fit in and find community?
Well, here's a thought, why not get involved in an organization of students who are interested in meeting other people, socializing in an atmosphere that doesn't involve beer, and who have a relationship with Jesus? Cru is a place where you will find real friendships, real community, and real faith lived out by your fellow students. Towson Cru is a community where the gospel captures hearts, transforms lives, and launches men and women into a lifelong adventure with Jesus Christ.
So let this be our welcome to Towson University. We're glad you're here! We hope you will come check us out for yourself. You can find us in the Susquehanna Terrace in the University Union every Thursday at 7:30pm. Hope to see you there!

GATA Gogus Cerrahisi AD, Ankara, Turkey
PURPOSE: Mediastinal mass lesions are relatively uncommon. Aim of this study is to present the diagnosis and treatment approach to mediastinal mass lesions.
METHODS: A retrospective review of mediastinal mass lesions was undertaken over a 15 year period.
RESULTS: One hundred and nine mediastinal mass lesions underwent operation during 1990 - 2004. Eighty-five (78%) of these patients were male and twenty-four (22%) were female. The ages ranged from 17 to 76 years. Twenty-five (23%) cases were asymptomatic. Thirty-eight (35%) of patients were malign and seventy-one (65%) benign diseases. Thymoma (18%) was the most common pathology among the benign lesions. Lymphoma (16%) was the commonest malign tumor of mediastinum according to our series. The spectrum of other pathologies was encountered, including schwannoma, teratoma, malign thymoma, bronchogenic cysts, pericardial cysts and hydatid cysts.
CONCLUSION: Malign mediastinal mass lesions often require multidisciplinary treatment. Even malign or benign, expeditious surgical resection of mediastinal mass lesions provide a good clinical outcome.
CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: Optimal management of mediastinal mass lesions require multidisciplinary approach with collaboration of thoracic surgeon, radiologist, chest physician and other related branches.

It was anticipated that English Hockey would announce the outcome of their findings this week.
But a decision has been delayed because the schedule of international matches has restricted the availability of key personnel.
Royce was suspended on full pay on April 11 after allegations made by Pauline Stott, who captained the women's GB squad at the Sydney Olympics before retiring from international hockey, that he bullied players.
The former Teddington club coach, who has recently been approached about becoming assistant coach to England's men's squad, denies the allegations.
English Hockey Network director Gary Stephens was appointed to oversee the inquiry and he has asked for more time to complete his report.
"Gary Stephens - who has reached an advanced stage in the process - has been unable to complete the task in time due to the availability of individuals involved with the England international programme," explained a spokesman for English Hockey.
English Hockey chief executive Richard Wyatt confirmed that it is likely to be the end of the month before the inquiry is complete.
