London, Jan 15 (ANI): Amid the global financial crisis, a company has come up with a 'magical' scarf that can transform from a piece of neck wear into eight other items, including a dress, a skirt, a or boob-tube style top.
The stretchy garment, which costs just 6.50 pounds, can be converted into a poncho, a pashmina, a hood, a belt or even a hand muff to keep hands warm in chilly winters.
"It really is the ultimate accessory, in fact it is more than that, it is almost an entire wardrobe in one," the Telegraph quoted Loie Levine, from The Magic Scarf Company, as saying.
The company has so far sold almost 170,000 pounds of the scarves to British customers over the Internet.
"It is very popular all over the world as it is a reasonable price and you can do so much with it. Our major market is in the US but we have sold approximately 170,000 pounds worth to the UK," Levine said.
"There are no major chains or stores who carry the scarf, just smaller stores and boutiques but much of the sales have come from our own website," she added.
The scarf can even be washed in a washing machine at low temperatures. (ANI)

Home/ Reviews/ Cell Phones/ The Best Upcoming Cell Phones The Best Upcoming Cell Phones In the market for a new mobile phone? Don't pull the trigger just yet: These models look promising. View As: One Page | Slides 1 Share Tweet Pin Email Yotaphone 7. Yotaphone One of our favorite phones from CES is coming to the US by the end of the year. The Yotaphone is a well-designed Android phone with a 4.3-inch e-ink screen on the back. You can 'throw' images onto the back screen to turn it into a custom case; you can also use it to show the time and date, weather, RSS feeds, or other useful information. This is genuinely useful rather than a gimmick, and it's genuinely new, too. 2 Share Tweet Pin Email Sony Xperia ZL 6. Sony Xperia ZL We may not be getting the flagship Sony Xperia Z here in the U.S., but we're getting the Xperia ZL. It's unusually small and slim for a phone with a 5-inch 1080p display, and it includes an IR blaster to control your home entertainment devices. It'll make a good alternative to the juggernaut Samsung Galaxy S4 for folks who like a more restrained aesthetic. 3 Share Tweet Pin Email LG Optimus F7 5. LG Optimus F7 This mid-to-high-end LG phone could be a real workhorse in any carrier's lineup. The specs are quite respectable, with a smooth but well-crafted plastic body, a sharp 4.7-inch 720p IPS LCD screen, and a 1.5GHz dual-core processor—nothing out of place in today's midrange phones. But it has two things that set it apart: an unusually capacious 2540mAh battery and the QSlide multitasking ability. That battery is about the same size as the Motorola Droid RAZR HD's, and larger than most competitors'. Long battery life plus multitasking could equal a great Android experience. 4 Share Tweet Pin Email LG Optimus G Pro 4. LG Optimus G Pro I've been cold on phablets and 8-inch tablets because I don't like wide devices. But the 5.5-inch, 1080p-screen Optimus G Pro is 3 inches wide compared with the Samsung Galaxy Note II's 3.2 inches, and for me that little change makes all the difference; this phone is significantly more comfortable to hold in one hand. The specs are epic, of course: a super-bright 1080p Super IPS LCD screen, a 1.7GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 processor, a 13-megapixel camera, and a removable 3140mAh battery. This phablet can also multitask three apps at once on the same screen. I'm hoping it'll come to Verizon Wireless. 5 Share Tweet Pin Email BlackBerry Q10 3. BlackBerry Q10 I've left the BlackBerry Z10 off this list, because the Q10 is the BlackBerry that BlackBerry fans will really want. Almost nobody's serving the QWERTY-keyboard market any more, but the Q10 will deliver a beautiful hardware keyboard along with a 3.1-inch, 720-by-720 screen and the fast new BlackBerry 10 OS. If your killer app is tapping out messages all day, the BlackBerry Q10 will be your best friend in 2013. It'll probably come out in April or May on multiple carriers. 6 Share Tweet Pin Email HTC One 2. HTC One The most beautiful new phone I've seen this year, the HTC One is a solid piece of aluminum with a next-generation processor and the densest, most colorful screen I've ever seen. It has incredible low-light camera performance. It turns your photos into videos. It boots into something that looks like Flipboard. It runs hundreds of thousands of apps, and it'll be available on several major U.S. carriers. This phone is HTC's best chance to wrest mindshare away from Samsung and Apple, and I think it'll outshine the much-awaited Galaxy S4 in some ways. (Take a look at a spec comparison between the HTC One and Samsung Galaxy S4.) 7 Share Tweet Pin Email Samsung Galaxy S4 1. Samsung Galaxy S4 Samsung's Galaxy S4 will come out later this spring on every major U.S. carrier. The new Samsung flagship has a 5-inch, 1080p screen, a 1.9GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 processor, 2GB of RAM, a 13-megapixel rear-facing camera, and a 2-megapixel front-facing shooter. The most important element of it, though, is all of Samsung's new software, from a whole bunch of new camera modes to the S Health pedometer.

Chapter 1: IT STARES INTO YOUR SOULMature
(Originally posted by Harlot on Tue Jul 28, 2009)
Kara was slithering down the road when she got to the south gate... she spied a few poorly hidden guards--it was not like them to hide when she came. They were usual there making sure the town was safe. She goes up to the hidden bodies--they had corpse status. *Sigh* some humans got too cold again--so she lay them out onto some warm rocks. She really had nothing more to say but, "Get warm friend."
She gets to the south gate--somebody was watching her. Something--childish... boyish and childish. The kind that would catch a large bug and put it on a young girl's lap, or snap all the heads off a girls favourite dolls. It was watching her. She knew a lot about children. They were smart, just playful. Though some of them really didn't know how to play nice.
She sighs, "I'll have to find one and take it too its mother--before it makes me have to find _more_ warm rocks."
She snaps her tail, readying it for use, and Kara starts looking around where she would hide here--and spots one, and looks directly into his eyes.

Terrorism and National Security Reform

BeschreibungTerrorism and National Security Reform demonstrates that blue-ribbon commissions can be powerful vehicles for policy change, overturning the conventional wisdom that views them only as devices for passing the buck. Jordan Tama explains how the unique political credibility of commissions can enable them to forge bipartisan consensus on tough policy challenges. He also shows that commissions are most valuable during a crisis, when policymakers face pressure to make changes but frequently cannot agree on what to do. Using an original database, case studies, and more than 200 interviews of policymakers and commission participants, Tama reveals how commissions have shaped Barack Obama's plan for ending the Iraq War, spurred the largest government and intelligence overhauls since 1947, and driven many other elements of U.S. counterterrorism policy. In an era of unrelenting partisanship and extreme polarization, this book shows that commissions are increasingly valuable policymaking tools.

Dear Warrior {07-25-12}, a second entry
Dear Warrior...
Before I begin, I just want to let you know that I'm at Starbucks right now, and there is an absolutely gorgeous barista here...and he gave me a TON of extra whipped cream WITHOUT ME ASKING. Instant mood brightener!
Okay, anyways.
I'm in the process of feeling extremely guilty. See, I'm going to my cousin's house today. They live out of state, so I rarely get to see them.
But my sister can't go. She's staying behind at our house. And that's why I feel awful.
My sister keeps reassuring me that it's okay, that honestly, she'd rather stay behind and get caught up on some obligations she's gotten behind on (how's that for ending a sentence with TWO prepositions? Take that, OCD!!!). But like the distrustful person I am, I keep telling myself I should've stayed behind with my sister because she's secretly jealous of me for being able to go see my cousin.
Right now, I'm at a Starbucks while I wait for my mom to finish getting piano music (we stopped at a music store on our way here, so that means I'll probably be here for a few hours). And I keep rebuking myself for leaving my sister behind.
Why is it so hard for me to take people at their word? My sister said she'd rather stay behind! Why can't I believe her? Why do I insist upon berating myself for something that she's even said doesn't bother her?
I know why: It's because I'm an idiotic psychopath.
YES, I AM! My unwillingness to let go of lies just further proves that I am a failure!
No, it doesn't. It just means that the victory is going to be so much sweeter, because I fought all the harder for it.
^^^ The above is a snippet of the unspoken conversation I've been having with myself as I drink my coffee.
And I want to be finished with this. I want to be done believing the lies. I want to be a strong fighter. But to step away from condemning myself...that's scary. It truly is. But I can do it. I can do it, because He has conquered this already.
Okay. I'm going to step away from punishing myself. It feels awful, but I'm going to take the victory in this. Thank-You, Jesus.

Dolby TrueHD 96kHz Upsampling Improves Blu-ray Audio
Dolby TrueHD with advanced 96kHz upsampling improves the quality of Blu-ray audio and delivers lossless audio with fewer digital artifacts.
This week at the Fidelity Forum, Dolby introduced a new system that takes Blu-ray audio to the next level.
The audio on most Blu-ray discs is sampled at 48kHz. The trouble is that even the original movie tracks are usually only recorded at 48kHz, so once a movie migrates to disc, there isn't much that can be done.
Dolby's new system upsamples that audio signal to 96kHz at the master stage prior to the Dolby TrueHD encoding, so you get lossless audio with fewer digital artifacts.
The "fewer digital artifacts" part comes from a feature of Dolby's upsampling process called de-apodizing, which corrects a prevalent digital artifact known as pre-ringing. Pre-ringing is often introduced in the capture and creation process and adds a digital harshness to the audio. The apodizing filter masks the effect of pre-ringing by placing it behind the source tone - the listener can't hear the pre-ringing because it's behind the more prevalent original signal. The apodizing filter was adapted from technology developed by Meridian for audiophile-quality CD players selling for $18,000.
I was able to hear the results of the new upsampling process at Fidelity Forum. During the demo, all the samples sounded fuller, more distinctive and with a better soundstage. What was particularly surprising was the effect of the apodizing filter. I was initially skeptical, because the engineering description of pre-ringing seemed more like jargon, but in practice, I could definitely hear the difference. Higher tones seemed less severe and more natural.
There also seemed to be improvements in the overall ambiance of soundtracks, an airy quality that made the 48kHz versions seem flat. The results can be subtle, but they're noticeable enough that it is worth it.
There are already home theater components that include built-in upsampling features, but since the Dolby system hits the signal with upsampling before it's been encoded to TrueHD, the result is closer to the source. Also, other upsamplers won't do the apodizing filter trick that contributes a lot to the final results.
In order to enjoy the benefits of a 96kHz disc, you need an AV receiver capable of playing it. Generally, newer receivers can, but not all of them. Many new receivers support sample rates up to 192kHz.
Dolby said several mixing houses have already upgraded their systems to take advantage of the new technology. In the US, two new releases Satchurated: Live in Montreal and San Francisco Symphony at 100 will feature the 96kHz soundtracks.
Ideally we'd have Blu-ray discs with audio recorded natively in 96k, but that rarely happens, especially on film titles. Until that becomes more common, Dolby's solution is a boon for people who value the sound as much as the picture. It's also a great tool for the enormous back catalog of movies that have yet to be released on Blu-ray, and even more reason to make sure your client's audio gear is up to date.

Philosophy Lexicon of Arguments
|Index words: index words are words like "here", "there", "now", "me", etc. which require a closer determination, so that a sentence which includes them can be determined whether it is true or false. A sentence with index words is therefore context-dependent. Index words are not demonstratives. See also deixis, anaphora, context dependency, indexicality.
|Meta data
Books on Amazon
Index/Index word/Adaptor/Millikan: unlike other words, the adaptor for an index word is not simply another part of the sentence. It can lie outside the sentence. ((s) pointing, anaphora, etc.).
Adaptive Eigenfunction/Millikan: E.g. Chameleon: the color-producing units are adapted eigenfunctions.
Index/Index word/Millikan: E.g. Suppose a chameleon is suspended in the air and has no background on which to align its color pattern. Then there is no adapted eigenfunction.
Sentence: every element of a sentence has a relational eigenfunction. Only with it, it is completely described as a sentence part. Individual words do not have an adapted eigenfunction.
Index word: has two relations: a) to something within the sentence - b) in addition to something outside.
"I"/Millikan: is translated by me into an "inner name".
"He"/Millikan: if "he" has no antecedent ((s) no anaphora), then it has no adapted eigenfunction. But it has a relational eigenfunction:
Relational Eigenfunction/Index word/Millikan: is the function to be translated into an inner name that has the same referent as the antecedent.
E.g. chameleon: here the normal condition for the image must have two components:
1. There must be a background (existence, existence condition).
2. The color pattern must be more or less the same. (Mapping condition).
Adaptor/index/index word/Millikan: if an index does not have an adaptor, it lacks the full meaning, not truth.
There/Index word/Millikan: presupposes "this": "in this place".
This/index words/Millikan: "this" is usually conventional, passed on from speaker to speaker.
There may also be "improvised" methods of application. These are not conventional. Improvised techniques can be repeated without leading to reproductively determined families.
Of course: there can be "natural" methods, these are also not conventional: e.g. gestures.
"This": (other than "I" and "You") must be added, by specifying the nature of the object. "This" seems to be a special kind of a free variable.
Referent/this/Millikan: the referent is largely determined by the rest of the sentence in which "this" occurs.

U2 manager delighted to bring stage show full circle
By Ray Waddell
NASHVILLE (Billboard) - As U2 wraps the 2009 dates of its groundbreaking 360 world stadium tour, the band is expected to gross about $300 million and sell about 3 million tickets to fewer than 50 shows.
Rather than a high-end ticket price, the big numbers are more about a unique staging concept that boosts configurations at stadiums, and fans know that U2 is again pushing the production envelope. The tour is in support of the band's latest album, "No Line on the Horizon," and if it isn't scaling the sales heights of previous sets -- since its March release, "Line" has sold 991,000 copies, according to Nielsen SoundScan -- the band's manager, Paul McGuinness, credits that more to overall market conditions than a decline in the act's popularity.
Though sometimes outspoken about industry issues -- his 2008 MIDEM keynote excoriating the industry for its lackluster response to digital distribution still resonates -- McGuinness is anything but riled as he sits in an office backstage at Chicago's Soldier Field just before U2 went onstage. "What do I possibly have to be pissed off about?" he wonders. Both pragmatist and gambler, McGuinness guides the career of what has become arguably the biggest band in the world, and it has been a banner year for the group he has represented since the start of its career.
Much like the band he represents, McGuinness continually focuses on breaking new ground, and he's constantly looking for new ideas. The 360 tour is U2's first under a new 10-year Live Nation multiple-rights deal. While he doesn't claim to have all the answers, McGuinness is open to new horizons, as evidenced by "the claw," the massive staging concept that makes U2's 360 tour truly an all-encompassing experience.
Billboard: How did the European leg feel to you on this run of the 360 tour?
Paul McGuinness: Incredible. We played to staggering numbers. We've broken records in every building we play because the effect of this production economically is to increase the capacity by about 20 percent routinely. For instance, in Berlin at Olympic Stadium, we held the record already jointly with the Rolling Stones at 70,000. This time I think we put in 90,000. Every building we play we will break whatever record there is there.
Billboard: So you feel good about the live part of U2's business?
McGuinness: Absolutely, because in a way there's a memory in the audience. They've always known that when you come to a U2 show -- even when we were doing theaters -- we would do as much production as we could afford. Once we got into arenas, we loved it -- we always played in the round in the arenas -- so this seems natural to be in the round in the stadiums. Continued...

Questions and AnswersMature
Dawn awoke to Amelia and a strange little daemon changing his bandages again.
"Good morning sire." Amelia smiled.
"What's going on?" Dawn asked his voice sounded strained.
"Just making sure your healing properly." Amelia smiled "its good to see you awake." Dawn frowned at her.
"Can you take me home?" he asked as she rewrapped his arm, she looked at him sadly.
"I'm sorry sweetie" she said "but you are home." The nickname seemed to echo in Dawn's mind.
"Sweetie" he muttered frowning, he closed his eyes and tried to remember where he'd heard the name before, he felt like he was in a dark room his nails scraping a pane of glass inside his mind, he knew that his memories lay just behind it.
"Sire?" the male daemon frowned "Are you alright?"
"Empty," Dawn said dully opening his eyes again.
"Not empty" Lou's voice said nearby "just temporarily out of stock."
"What?" Dawn snapped as the daemon stood up and walked over to him, yawning as he went.
"You're not empty," he said "you just need time."
"How much?" Dawn growled watching Amelia as she unwrapped his bandaged left leg carefully.
"I don't know." Lou sighed, "I don't know what's been done to you."
"What are you taking about?" Dawn snapped Lou smiled gently.
"Well, either you have normal amnesia, which can happen and does quite often." Lou sat down on the edge of the bed. "Or that thing that rules Paradise has messed with your head."
"What?" Dawn shouted, his body arched as his skin darkened his eyes clenched shut Lou gripped his shoulders.
"Calm down." He ordered Dawn's pitch black eyes opened as his body fell back onto the bed.
"How?" his voice snarled in Lou's mind the daemon winced.
"You have to try." Lou pleaded.
"Why?" Dawn's voice growled as black lines began to snake across his skin.
"I'll explain when you're calm." Lou said firmly Dawn looked at him then he visibly tried to slow his breathing down Lou smiled in relief as the dark lines retreated and Dawn's eyes turned brown again.
"There" Dawn snapped "now what is going on?" Lou nodded.
"Okay," he said still smiling, "as you know you are becoming a daemon and as a daemon your emotions can have a very physical impact on your body.
"You're crazy" Dawn laughed "and I have no idea what you're talking about." Lou laughed then looked up examining the ceiling for a moment then he stood and walked away from Dawn.
"It's a little small in here but let me show you what I'm talking about." Lou said as he began to unbutton his shirt, "I will apologize about this but I like this shirt and I preferably wish to wear it again" he folded it and put it on his bed. Dawn watched al of this closely his head tilted on the pillow. His eyes traced the black lines that that snaked across Lou's chest and back curling down his arms.
"Nice tattoo" Dawn said Lou smiled again.
"I was young" he laughed "once." Dawn watched as he sat down on the carpet. "I hope you're ready for this." Lou sighed Dawn frowned as he saw the tattooed lines begin to spread the colour bleeding together. Lou's body stretched and grew filling out around the shoulders and chest. Dawn watched in horror and amazement as the enormous black skinned creature ducked its head to avoid the ceiling, the large gleaming black eyes looked down at him. "This is why you must stay calm." Lou's voice said gently in Dawn's mind, Dawn frowned then he sighed.
"Is that what I'll look like?" the creature tat was Lou, cocked its head slightly then began to shrink again Dawn winced slightly as he heard Lou's screams in his head. He looked over the edge of the bed to see the daemon curled up on the carpet breathing hard.
"Are you okay?" he asked Lou looked up at him.
"Fine." Lou said still trying to catch his breath, Amelia moved quickly and grabbed Lou's dressing robe from the end of the bed Lou pulled himself up his knees pulled up to his chest, as Amelia draped the robe around her masters shoulders. Dawn looked away as Lou stood up making sure the silk robe covered him properly. "Thanks" he smiled at Amelia.
"You're welcome sire." Amelia smiled.
"Dawn?" Lou said gently Dawn looked at him again, "you will most likely look like me, yes."
"Do all daemons look the same like that?" Dawn asked.
"No Lou smiled sitting back down on the edge of Dawn's bed, "everyone looks different but similarities run in families." Dawn nodded.
"So I'm related to you?" he said Lou looked at him a bemused smile on his face.
"You remember that?"
"No" Dawn replied "but you look like me and your little friend," he pointed at the male daemon who was cleaning up the medical supplies around the bed. "Keeps calling me sire." Lou grinned.
"You definitely didn't lose your perceptive capabilities" Lou laughed "but you actually look like me," Dawn frowned "you're my son Dawn" Lou frowned as Dawn looked away from him.
"Fair enough." Dawn said dully.
"You didn't accept it this easily last time." Lou said Lou said taking a clean cloth from Amelia.
"I figure I'm either in a really realistic nightmare or this is only the beginning of a really bad situation." Dawn growled Lou sighed then smiled as he wiped the small trickle of blood from the corner of Dawn's mouth.
"It will get better," he said gently Dawn looked up at him and nodded sadly.

Browns hire Horton as new DC
Associated Press | Last updated January 18, 2013
The Browns have named Ray Horton their new defensive coordinator. Horton spent the past two seasons with the Arizona Cardinals, who ranked second in the NFL in interceptions and third-down efficiency. Horton has 19 years of experience as a pro assistant. Before he went to Arizona, Horton spent seven seasons with Pittsburgh. He played 10 years as a defensive back in the league. Horton replaces Dick Jauron, who was not retained by new Cleveland coach Rob Chudzinski. Horton ''will work very well with the young nucleus of players we have on defense,'' Chudzinski said. On Thursday, former San Diego coach Norv Turner was named the Browns' new offensive coordinator. The Browns also interviewed the 52-year-old Horton for their head coaching vacancy before naming Chudzinski their sixth coach since 1999.

Maria Teresa Fontela Goulart (born August 23, 1940) was the wife of the 24th president of Brazil, João Goulart, and served as First Lady during his presidency from 1961 until 1964, when he was deposed by a military-led coup d'état.
Early life[edit]
Maria Teresa was born on August 23, 1940 in São Borja, Rio Grande do Sul. She was educated at the Colégio Metodista Americano (American Methodist High School), a traditional boarding school in Porto Alegre. Her parents lived next door to Jango (João Goulart) in São Borja. According to her, despite the fact that they were neighbors, she only met him personally at the age of 14, when Dinarte Dornelles, uncle of then President Getúlio Vargas, asked her to deliver a letter to Jango, who was the Minister of Labour and Employment at the time. Maria Teresa tried not to fall in love with Jango, because she thought someone as important as he would not be interested in her.[1]
Maria Teresa encountered Jango once again at her debutante ball, which took place in the house of her aunt, América Fontela, the wife of Vargas' brother Spartacus Dornelles,[2] in Rio de Janeiro. One of América's daughters and, thus, Maria Teresa's cousin is Yara Vargas, who later helped Leonel Brizola establish the Democratic Labour Party and was elected to Rio Grande do Sul's House of Representatives.
Marriage and children[edit]
In 1955, when Maria Teresa finished her studies, she and Jango started dating. They got married in the following year when Maria Teresa was 16 and Jango was running for the Vice Presidency. At that time, there were separate elections for President and Vice President in Brazil and Jango would receive more votes than Juscelino Kubitschek, who was elected President. After her marriage, Maria Teresa became sister-in-law of Leonel Brizola, who was married to Jango's sister Neusa.
In 1960, Jango was re-elected Vice President, which allowed Maria Teresa to serve as Second Lady from 1956 to 1961, when Jânio Quadros resigned from the Presidency. When her husband assumed office, Maria Teresa became the youngest First Lady of the history of Brazil, at 21 years of age.
Maria Teresa and Jango had two children: the former congressman João Vicente and the historian Deize. When she served as Second Lady, her family lived in the Chopin Building, next to the Copacabana Palace in Rio de Janeiro. During the time she served as First Lady, she lived in the Granja do Torto in the then recently built capital Brasília. She lived in Palácio da Alvorada, the official residence, for six months, but preferred the Granja do Torto because she liked horse racing.[3]
Life as First Lady[edit]
In August 1961, Maria Teresa and her children were guests in a Spanish hotel owned by a friend of the Goulart family, while her husband was on a diplomatic mission in the People's Republic of China. One day, at breakfast, she was told that Jânio Quadros had resigned and that her husband would become the new President. Shortly after, journalists started incessantly calling her room.
Quadros advised her to stay at the hotel until the situation with the military ministers, who refused to recognize Jango as the new President because of his connections with members of the Brazilian Communist Party and the Brazilian Socialist Party, was solved. Maria Teresa only returned to Brazil when her husband assumed the Presidency.[4]
As First Lady, Maria Teresa was responsible for the foundation of the headquarters of the Legião Brasileira de Assistência (Brazilian Legion of Aid) -- an organization founded in 1942 by then First Lady Darcy Vargas to help poor families—in Brasília. She hosted a large number of charitable events, being responsible for bringing members of the high society to participate in such events.[5]
Maria Teresa chose to wear haute couture outfits to public events, and became a fashion icon, being compared to Jacqueline Kennedy and appearing on the covers of a large number of magazines. Her personal stylist was Dener Pamplona de Abreu. Prior to the coup, she was named one of the ten most beautiful women in the world by People magazine.[6][7]
Life in exile[edit]
After the deposition of Jango on April 1, 1964 by the military, the Goulart family was forced to live in exile. Jango, Maria Teresa and their children lived in Uruguay. Later, Denise and João Vicente moved to London, while Jango and Maria Teresa went to Argentina, where Jango had business affairs. Jango died in the city of Mercedes on the night of December 6, 1976. The official version of his death is that he suffered a heart attack. This is uncertain as his body was not submitted for an autopsy and the attending physician wrote only the Spanish word enfermedad (sickness) as the causa mortis on his medical chart. He was buried in his native São Borja. Thirty thousand people attended his funeral, media coverage of which was censored by the military regime. Maria Teresa and her children were forbidden to return to Brazil until 1979's Amnesty law.
On November 15, 2008, Maria Teresa and Jango received political amnesty from the Federal Government. The former First Lady will receive an indemnification of R$ 644,000 (around US$ 322,000) to be paid in pensions of R$5,425 (around US$2,712) per month for Jango being restrained from practicing his job as a Lawyer. She will also receive an indemnification of R$100,000 (around US$50,000) for the 15 years in which her family was forbidden to return to Brazil.[8]
The government recognizes its mistakes of the past and apologizes to a man that defended the nation and its people of whom we could not have prescinded— President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva

What did you think of the preceding films, notably Tim Burton?
I think the first film has its place in history; what Tim Burton did could certainly be considered visionary but it didnt speak to me personally. Its not a great personal favorite of mine. It wasnt my Batman. It didnt speak to me on that level, even though I appreciated all the skill and artistry of it. It wasnt the Batman film Id wanted to see, in terms of a film that showed his origin story. I felt like there was a version of Batman that never got made in 1979 ten years before. When Dick Donner made Superman in 1979, it seems odd that they didnt do Batman in that same way with that epic sensibility.
You must have read Millers books around the time of the 1989 Batman, and already been thinking in the opposite direction to Burton
Yeah, it was right around that time. The thing with Burton is that he had the challenge of convincing a cinema audience that you could have a cool Batman film. Convincing an audience who remembers that the TV show was ridiculous. And he did it, he succeeded. The way he did it was to make the entire world that he lives in Gotham as peculiar and extraordinary as Batman is. So he fits in with that type of hyper-real, hyper-stylized universe on its own terms. That then convinced everybody that you could have a cool Batman film. So that isnt a hurdle that we have to get over with this film and, because of that, we are more free to treat the world around him as more ordinary and so allow his extraordinary nature to stand out. For me it was very important that the audience watching the film would feel for people in Gotham Batman is an extraordinary a figure for them as he is for us in the audience.
Goyer had this to say:
How did you relate to the portrayal of batman in the films compared to the comic books?
Well, I liked the way he was portrayed in the comic books much more than he was in the films. I liked the first of the previous films [Tim Burtons Batman 1989]. But I felt the later films became more akin to the TV show and were somewhat out of synch with the way that batman was currently being depicted in the comic books.
I always love reading what others have to say about different interpretations of Batman. I recently saw what Batman comic book legend, Denny O'Neill, said about Nolan's movies:
ONeil wrote the novelization for both Batman Begins and The Dark Knight, and he loves what Nolan has done with the Caped Crusader on the big screen. Both [films] were terrific and Im glad to be associated with them, said ONeil, who also co-created Azrael, a character that helped Marvel Comics Editor in Chief shoot to superstardom as an illustrator. Nolan is creating his own version of the mythos and its as valid as any that preceded it by any criteria, and more valid in terms of his own art form.
Sometimes I remember it one way. Sometimes another. If I'm going to have a past, I prefer it to be multiple choice!

Ripoff Report
Square Up901 Mission St. Suite 210 San Francisco, California USA
Square Up Caters to Consumers San Francisco California
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
I own a business and was seeking out credit card processors when I first launched my company. I read around and looked at reviews and despite reading the bad ones about Square I opted to go with them. After some time of using Square I found a MUCH cheaper and supportive solution. Square's rates are astronomical and there is no one to speak with in case you have an issue.
So a couple months after no longer using Square I get a message from them regarding a chargeback notification against my company. The chargeback gives NO information about the individual, no details of why the chargeback is being requested and simply gives the date and amount of the chargeback.
Square then asks me for supporting documentation regarding our companies return policy and states that they represent merchants and share information with the consumer. They state that they stand behind the merchants in all matters. [continued below]....

All, I may have been wrong in my last message when I stated that the Java 2 Enterprise Edition uses JWSDK1.0. The documentation that I read indicates that the reference implementation for the Java 2 Enterprise Edition is for non-commercial use and uses the JavaWebServer product in its implementation. The last release of the JavaWebServer product (2.0) conforms to the Servlet 2.1 spec, not the 2.2 one. Does the reference implementation for Java 2 Enterprise Edition use an updated JavaWebServer implementation, or is it based on some version of the core from JWSDK used in TomCat? Also, the press release indicates that sources will be available for the Enterprise Edition in January 2000. Does this include sources for the reference implementation which includes a servlet container implementation? Thirdly, Is the estimate for the final release of TomCat on the TomCat home page by the end of 1999 still accurate? There are only 23 days left until that time. Am I the only one who is confused? Any answers that can be discussed in this forum would be appreciated. -Jonathan ____________________Reply Separator____________________ Subject: Release Date? Author: firstname.lastname@example.com Date: 12/8/99 5:35 PM Sun announced the final release of the Java 2 Enterprise Edition today. The press release indicates that binaries will be available December 17, and sources sometime in January 2000. Java 2 Enterprise Edition says it includes Servlet 2.2 final support, but the beta from September uses the JWSDK1.0 with Servlet 2.1 support. Does all this mean that some version of Tomcat will ship with the final Enterprise Edition binaries later this month? If not, what servlet container will be included in the Enterprise Edition release? The date indicated is only 9 days from now and Tomcat does not look finished to me. What am I missing? -Jonathan --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: email@example.com For additional commands, e-mail: email@example.com

RENTON, Wash. -- The Seattle Seahawks defense knows how dangerous Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton is when he runs with the football. So what's the plan?
"We can't let Cam run on us," Seahawks middle linebacker Bobby Wagner said. "We want to make him try to beat us throwing, which I don't think he can do."
Wagner has great respect for Newton's athletic ability, but he feels the Seahawks have to focus on taking something away from him.
"We want to force him to make tough decisions," Wagner said. "In the read-option, you have to be disciplined. If one person doesn't have their man, you could see Cam run for 80 yards.
"Everything is not going to happen the way it's supposed to for us. Somebody is going to have to step up and make a play."
Newton completed only 12 of 29 passes for 141 yards in Seattle's 16-12 victory in Charlotte last October.
"The most important thing we did [in the Carolina game last year] was get after the quarterback," safety Earl Thomas said. "We got under his skin a little bit.
"Basically, just keep getting hits [on Newton]. With a quarterback like that, you try to move him off his spot. It makes it hard for him. It's delaying his decisions. That's what you're talking about when you play Cam Newton. You have to pressure him."
Defensive end O'Brien Schofield, who probably will start Sunday because of Cliff Avril's hamstring injury, said the defense has to be ready for Newton's speed.
"He definitely has a motor," Schofield said. "So if he gets by your first pass-rushing move, you have to be able to chase him down when he gets outside of the pocket."

Renewable Energy
All things energy, from solar and wind power to efficiency and off-grid living.
Success on the Horizon for Lowering Energy Consumption
Attainable changes are headed our way. A decrease in energy consumption rates is now in the foreseeable future as long as the United States follows current energy efficiency programs. The Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) released an analysis this week concluding that the United States could potentially decrease its energy consumption growth by 22 percent in the next 20 years. The analysis took into account the existing market patterns, funding complications and the United States' increasing energy consumption.
According to the EPRI's press release, the study used projections of growth in electricity usage by residential, commercial and industrial sectors collected by the Energy Information Association (EIA).
Arshad Mansoor, vice president of Power Delivery and Utilization for EPRI, explains that the institute's study will provide vital information for policymakers, utility companies and regulators when it comes to making important decisions about how to make effective changes in our energy systems.
You can download the EPRI report and its executive summary at www.epri.com.

The strange current of electricity draws Luna and I closer. She didn't seem so guilty this time. I hear the sounds of some one coming up the stairrs I turn around to see the staticy blond hair of Rob. I'm still holding Luna's waist. She begins to go red. I let go before the rest of his head emerges from the hatch like door.
" Luna...." Rob was about to continue on but then he saw me.
" Uh hey." I say rubbing the back of my head. I don't think this was going to turn out well.

Gillian Anderson Opens Up About Her Past Lesbian Relationships
Gillian Anderson has made a shocking confession about her past relationships. The 43-year-old, who is famous for her portrayal of Special Agent Dana Scully on "The X-Files", admitted in an interview for the April issue of Out magazine that she has had numerous romantic relationships with women.
"I was in a relationship with a girl for a long time when I was in high school," revealed the actress, who will next be seen as Miss Havisham on BBC's "Great Expectations". She went on to dish that she had a relationship with "a punk rock drug addict" as well as with "somebody who was way, way older than me."
On why she decided to talk about her lesbian romance, the mother of three explained, "You know, I'm old enough that I can talk about that." She added, "If I had thought I was 100% gay, would it have been a different experience for me? Would it have been a bigger deal if shame had been attached to it and all those things that become huge life-altering issues for youngsters in that situation?"
Anderson, who has been married and divorced twice, continued on explaining why she downplayed her past experiences with women. "It's possible that my attitude around it came, on some level, from knowing that I still liked boys," the actress who reprised her role as Scully in "The X-Files: I Want to Believe" said.
Anderson was married to first husband, Clyde Klotz in 1994. They divorced in 1997 around three years after welcoming their daughter Piper Maru. She got married for a second time to documentary filmmaker Anderson in 2004. The marriage ended in 2006. She is currently in a relationship with Mark Griffiths, with whom she has two sons, Oscar and Felix.

Chapter NineMature
She opened the door to our form room. A group of the boys were sat on the desks, laughing. A few of them turned their heads to look at us. Nat smiled at me and looked me up and down.
"Where's Lewin?" Zoe asked.
"How should I know?" Nat replied, not taking his eyes off me.
"Nathan Hold, will you look at me?"
He looked at her sharply."I don't know where Lewin is."
"That's all I wanted."
Nat looked back at me and his enchanting smile came back. I left the room with Zoe but looked over my shoulder. He was still watching me. Zoe and I rounded a corner and he was out of sight.
"Just because I'm not bothered if you date my brother, doesn't mean I want to see you visually flirting in front of me," said Zoe.
"Sorry. I've never done any of this before."
"What did you do with your time except for eat and sleep?" she asked.
"Not even them. I don't know to be honest. Reading, learning new spells, flying, that's about it. I've done virtually nothing in thirteen solid years," I admitted, only realising just then.
"So you don't eat or sleep?"
"I don't need to but I can."
"Well that's fairly awesome," she said.
"It would be if I had something to do. Sometimes I hang out at the graveyard but the dead aren't any fun to talk to," I told her. Not that she would ever need to know, hopefully.
"This conversation is starting to get creepy."
"Yeah, I can imagine."
"So... Talbot the Dragon?" she said.
I rolled my eyes at her. "It means 'messenger of destruction'."
"Well that's... enlightening," she said.
"Isn't it just."
Zoe pushed open a pair of doors. Inside were rows and rows of plastic boxes with glass in the front. Zoe sat down in one of the chairs. I sat next to her but wouldn't touch the thing. She tapped at letters on a plastic block in front of her. She looked at me.
"What's up?" she asked.
"What are these things?"
"You're kidding me," she said. "They're computers."
"Computers? I always thought they'd look more future-y. I've never seen one before," I said truthfully
"Father is unwilling to get one. He says they're the Devil's work – which doesn't quite make sense."
"Why not?"
"Uncle Jonathon would never bother with machines."
"Uncle Jonathon?"
"It's a long story that goes back thousands of years. I've never cared for history."
"Me neither. But anyway, so you've never seen a computer before?"
She paused. "You said future-y earlier. Did you mean 'futuristic'?"
"Sorry," I said, smiling, "that happens sometimes. English is my second language and I'm not great at it."
"What's your first language?"
"One older than mankind. It doesn't have a name, it's just there really. I was taught English by my mother when I was three. Father objected a lot but Mother can't speak our language so he let her. I've got five years to learn every single language spoken in this world and maybe a few spoken in the Otherworld."
"How many is that?"
"A lot."

Aeris: UpskillMature
I remember everything. Every single glance over my shoulder and every single weary footstep.
After leaving the Ancients, I had wandered the city. I was not a murderer. Even if my life hadn't been a law abiding one I was not cruel enough to take another's life. At least, not cruel enough to take a life for no reason.
Perhaps in this game, you had no choice. Some people are simply motivated, but before I started to play, I had already given up.
If we swapped ranks with whoever we killed, we'd have to kill the person ranked one. We could kill a million times over and not obtain our three wishes if we hadn't killed them person ranked first. Consequently we could kill only once and get our three wishes if that one kill was ranked first.
1. Amelda Rhinecourt. I will always keep an eye out for you, but to find this one lady in the world was not something I wanted to attempt.
I no longer had a bright future, I no longer had a gloomy one either. Rome's biggest public library had taught me that.
The man who I met three months ago, the so-called historian had looked exactly the same as he did five years ago. He used to be a famous scholar but now he was only a resident of the Ancients.
The non-aging thing hadn't really been important. One usually died before you could see possible signs of aging. Still, it ruled out my chances of having a solid life ahead of me.
I'm an escapist by nature. I had to be, but now, it was a choice. I liked the literature in the public library. I liked stories with happy endings.
I'm a realist as well. There are no happy endings in life. That's why I spent all my time in the library.
I see people come and go, they find the rule book and they smile to themselves. They are people with hope. I am not.

For Davy Jones, who died last week, Hollywood proved a long way from Manchester. I sensed it was not a journey he was entirely happy to have made when I recently met him again. He appeared marooned, rattling around in his large house. In the middle of a very volatile relationship, which would turn into marriage number three, he would never be booked as an entertainer other than as "Davy Jones of the Monkees".
He cut a very different figure from the man I first met on a sweltering day in Los Angeles 40 years ago. As a 19-year-old student, I was trying to hitch a ride with my best friend Alan. We fashioned a crude Union Jack on my rucksack in the hope of attracting anglophiles or expats, but the cars whizzed past. That was until an enormous Cadillac whispered up to the kerb. Its electric windows slid down and a voice chirped out: "I could never pass a Union Jack. Hop in." I was about to meet one of the most famous faces on the planet at the time. Davy Jones was about to take me into his life.
His house on Franklin Drive, right at the top of a canyon, was a far cry from his boyhood terraced home in Manchester. "When I got the part as Ena Sharples's grandson in Coronation Street," he told me later, "it was like I didn't have to act. It was just like being at home."
Davy had always been a talented home entertainer. Born in 1945 to a very close-knit family, the young Jones frequently entertained friends, family and the local working men's club with songs, dances and jokes. His brief foray into broadcasting had rather petered out by the end of the 1950s, which is when he decided to train as a jockey.
But his showbiz side would keep bursting forth. After he landed the part of the Artful Dodger in the West End production of Oliver!, which transferred to Broadway, Columbia Pictures got in touch via its television arm, Screen Gems. It was putting together a revolutionary kind of TV show, The Monkees. "It was all the idea of two guys who really wanted to get into movies but didn't have the money," Davy told me. "So, Bob Rafelson and Bert Schneider decided to do TV first and then move on to bigger things and bigger screens. They didn't want singers or dancers or musicians. They could teach us all that. We were meant to be the small-screen Beatles.
"Because I came from England – which was all the rage in the mid-Sixties with the Mersey sound and everything – the studio publicist put me down as born in Liverpool. 'But I come from Manchester,' I told him. 'That's 30 miles from Liverpool.' 'Kid,' he said, 'you can drive 30 miles and never leave LA – you're from Liverpool.'"
According to Davy, the Monkees' work schedule was relentless. Every night the four leads – Davy, Micky Dolenz, Mike Nesmith and Peter Tork – would learn new songs, rehearse new routines and record songs they'd already practised. Then, after grabbing a few hours' sleep, they'd be up early to shoot the show. But the reward was instant success. Songs such as "I'm a Believer" and "Last Train to Clarksville" became huge hits. Monkees records outsold those of the Beatles and the Rolling Stones put together. The group generated $90m in two years. And then it ended.
Davy was always coy about which member of the group led a failed rebellion (it was Nesmith) that caused the producers to call their bluff and walk away from the project. "It was one for all and all for one," he told me. "And this time, one of us shafted all the rest of us."
Cut to 40 years later. I was visiting Davy's very different home in a tiny town in rural Pennsylvania. Gone was the Hollywood mansion; in its place was a rambling house, rather the worse for wear. But around it was lots of land, where Davy could keep the thoroughbred horses that were the love of his life.
But it was clear his energies had no proper outlet in entertainment. He played me songs he'd written, all the time restless and constantly in motion. It took a long time to get him to sit down for half an hour so I could record an interview.
He was still handsome, fun, warm and welcoming. But when we spoke, he talked wistfully of his boyhood. And when I left, the broad smile was strained, the brown eyes slightly anxious. Living in the shadow of the Monkees for most of his life clearly hadn't turned out to be such a comic caper.
When I left Davy's home back in 1970, having received his generous hospitality, his last gesture was to drive Alan and me 100 miles up the Californian coast to make it easier to get rides. That was Davy down to a T: kind and generous. And it's how I'll remember him.

"What is grand is necessarily obscure to weak men. That which can be made explicit to the idiot is not worth my care."
"Grades are a problem. On the most general level, they're an explicit acknowledgment that what you're doing is insufficiently interesting or rewarding for you to do it on your own. Nobody ever gave you a grade for learning how to play, how to ride a bicycle, or how to kiss. One of the best ways to destroy love for any of these activities would be through the use of grades, and the coercion and judgment they represent. Grades are a cudgel to bludgeon the unwilling into doing what they don't want to do, an important instrument in inculcating children into a lifelong subservience to whatever authority happens to be thrust over them."
"The markets were a little disappointed that the Fed didn't give any explicit hint that a pause is around the corner."
"Our membership has been very explicit. They don't want to go any further back in the rankings. They want to maintain what their colleagues in different school districts are making. They want to feel good about it. They want to feel like they're valued."
"During my opening remarks, I explicitly encouraged attendees to take a shot at hacking the wireless network. Given the level and concentration of hacker talent at these events, I was more than pleasantly surprised they did not succeed. In fact, this is the first year the wireless network has managed to stay up without interruption for more than four hours. That is a true testament to the intrusion protection and advanced security functionality of Aruba's wireless solution."

He had always been tall and muscled for a sixteen year old boy and it was just now that he saw the major advantage of this. He grabbed another corpse by the front of its shredded shirt and dug his knife right through the eye socket. They were coming in their hordes, there was gonna be too many for him to fight off.
'For fuck's sake,' he growled as the door gave way and a fountain of them poured in. Grabbing the bag from the floor he ran through the kitchen and out of the back door. How the hell things had gotten so bad in such a short amount of time was beyond him.
As soon as he was in the garden, he began looking for ways out. He was running out of time and if he didn't find a way soon, he'd be dead. The gate that led onto the driveway was out of the question; the moans and violent thudding against wood told him there were more on the other side.
He darted over to the bottom of the garden and chucked his bag over the fence.
A quick look behind him told him the creatures were in hot pursuit. He put one foot in a groove in the wood and sprung himself over with ease. The sight that greeted him was not one for the faint hearted.
Blood stains decorated the windows; an upturned trampoline and what looked like a hand lay uselessly in the grass. Picking his bag up and slinging it over his shoulder he ran straight through the house, ignoring the groans from upstairs and back outside into the front driveway.
There weren't here waiting for him, like they said they would be.
'You bastards.'
He ducked low behind the car and tried to control his breathing as a couple of zombies passed him. They were too slow and stupid to spot him although he knew that they weren't all like this. He called the others runners because my god they could sprint when they saw you. Clutching the large knife in his hand, he poked his head round the side to see where he could go next.
An engine rolling by caught his attention. The car stopped and he ran towards it, diving into the passenger seat.
'You son of a bitch you're late,' he shoved the driver hard.
'Fuck off; you can walk if you want.'
'I nearly got eaten because of your incompetent ass.'
'Did you get the supplies?' The driver's eyes fell on the bag.
'You bet,' he grinned. 'I got a little something for myself too. It's mine though and if I catch anyone so much as looking at it there'll be trouble.'
The driver reached into the glove box and pulled out a black marker. 'You should probably write your name on it. Once they see that nobody will touch it.'
He took the pen from the driver and reached into the bag to retrieve his item.
Writing in capital letters, he made sure it was bold and clear.


text: I'm aware that there are other old posts about this issue, but I need to throw it into the forum again as it seems to be unresolved. After a new (clean) install of Windows 7, the start menu is empty - all installed programs and other items usually posted by the installer are missing. Is there a fix (not a workaround) for this problem? There have been a lot of postings for this issue over time throughout the Internet, but I cannot find a real fix (like a patch from Microsoft) for this problem. When I install Windows 7 with a newer release of Windows 7, the start menu is populated as expected, so I can only infer that Microsoft knew about and fixed the problem in later releases, but did not post a fix. Unfortunately, I have a couple of systems that have recently been built with an earlier release of Windows 7, and subsequently, have the problem.
