In Barnet the Second Circuit departs from precedent and sets the stage for potential circuit split - .PDF file.
In Drawbridge Special Opportunities Fund LP v Barnet, the US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit held that foreign entities seeking recognition under chapter 15 of the Bankruptcy Code must, in addition to satisfying the requirements for recognition set forth in that chapter, have a residence, domicile, place of business or assets in the US pursuant to section 109(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.
The Second Circuit reversed the bankruptcy court that had granted recognition under chapter 15 to an Australian company that had not introduced any evidence of assets or operations in the US. In granting recognition, the bankruptcy court had followed a long line of jurisprudence stretching back to former section 304 of the Bankruptcy Code — the precursor to chapter 15. By holding that a foreign debtor must comply with section 109, the Second Circuit has added an additional obstacle to chapter 15 recognition and made it more difficult for foreign companies to benefit from the US legal system. Moreover, within a week of the Barnet decision, and fully briefed on its holding, the Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware issued a conflicting opinion in In re Bemarmara Consulting a.s. Thus, the Second Circuit has set the stage for a potential circuit split.
Chapter 15 of the Bankruptcy Code largely incorporates the Model Law on Cross-Border Insolvency promulgated by the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law to provide an effective method for administering cross-border insolvencies. Congress's stated objectives for chapter 15 include: (i) promoting co-operation between the US courts, foreign courts and other competent authorities of foreign countries involved in cross-border insolvency cases; (ii) providing greater legal certainty for trade and investment; (iii) the fair and efficient administration of cross-border insolvencies; (iv) protecting and maximising foreign debtors' assets; and (v) rescuing troubled companies to preserve investment and employment. Chapter 15 applies when a foreign representative seeks recognition of a foreign insolvency proceeding by a US bankruptcy court. An important form of relief provided by chapter 15 is the ability to engage in court-sanctioned discovery….

Immigration debate mobilizes Latinos:
"Drawing on fear of restrictive immigration proposals that have awakened hundreds of thousands of Latinos to political activism, organizers are using popular Spanish-language radio and networks of community organizations to mobilize protests in Washington and scores of other cities Monday.
The demonstrations are planned to expand on a groundswell that attracted about 30,000 largely Hispanic protesters in the District last month, about 100,000 in Chicago and as many as 500,000 in Los Angeles, a surprising display of political muscle from a population that makes up a substantial portion of the nation's 12 million illegal immigrants.
Jaime Contreras, president of the National Capital Immigrant Coalition, predicted that Monday's demonstration at the Washington Monument would draw 100,000 people and that nationally the turnout, in more than 60 cities, would number "in the millions."
"The sleeping Latino giant is finally awake," Contreras said. "This will be the largest demonstration by immigrants ever held in this country."
Sleeping Giant is right, in the fact that this has been a storm a long time coming. In 1965, President Lyndon Johnson signed the 1965 Immigration Act, saying afterward:
"This bill we sign today is not a revolutionary bill. It does not affect the lives of millions. It will not retructure the shape of our daily lives."
He was mistaken, and now forty years later we see the "fruits" of that act, as since then waves of immigrants (legal and illegal)flooded this nation.
Senator Edward Kennedy (D-MA), then agreed with Johnson and indeed he was was one of the Act's chief archetechs:
""First, our cities will not be flooded with a million immigrants annually. Under the proposed bill, the present level of immigration remains substantially the same ... Secondly, the ethnic mix of this country will not be upset ...Contrary to the charges in some quarters, [the bill] will not inundate America with immigrants from any one country or area, or the most populated and deprived nations of Africa and Asia ... In the final analysis, the ethnic pattern of immigration under the proposed measure is not expected to change as sharply as the critics seem to think."
Which makes it almost a cruel joke that Kennedy along with Senator John McCain drafted the Immigration Reform currently working through the Senate.
Even more condescending Kennedy said of his bill, "We think it's a waste of resource to have highly skilled, highly trained border guards chasing after gardeners as they are today across the sandy desert, climbing fences,"
What a pompus ass....shut the hell up! 'Gardeners'.....indeed. Kennedy simply shows us how most of the "filthy rich" Democrat leadership really look at immigrants.
The fact - Senator (drown 'em and forget 'em), is that this current immigration 'crisis' is another example of how your side simply cannot be trusted to fix a problem when YOU and your cronies created it in the first place.
UPDATE: The screwing of America continues - Senate passes "compromise" deal.
Key verse: "Senate Republicans and Democrats closed in on a last-minute compromise Thursday on legislation opening the way to legal status and eventual citizenship for many of the 11 million immigrants living in the United States illegally."
Phew......"11 million immigrants living in the Untied States Illegally" = Illegal Immigrants! How hard is it to say that?
So in other words - the 'compromise' = amnesty for law breakers.
By the way....
McCain is done for 2008 - bet on it.

Yes, A sniffer only needs to capture only one request with your username/credentials and may subsequently misuse them for accessing the webapp. DIGEST is nearly as weak as BASIC/FORM, the only difference is, that the password is going through a hash function, which creates a digest of your password, from which the original password can not be restored.

"Do not bypass the Cabinet". This was President Pranab Mukherjee's 'admonition' to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in a note that he sent along with his signature on an ordinance.
The ordinance -- 'The Enemy Property (Amendment and Validation) Fourth Ordinance, 2016' , renewed for the fourth time as the related Bill is pending in the Rajya Sabha, was sent to the President on Sunday, when it was due to expire.
The President was upset that it was sent to him without being cleared by the Union Cabinet first.
According to an NDTV report, the President made it clear that he had signed the ordinance in the interest of the public, but warned that the Cabinet must not be bypassed again.
Incidentally, this is the first time since Independence that an ordinance has been sent to the President without the Union Cabinet clearing it first.
Sources told OneIndia that the government was in a hurry as the ordinance would have lapsed on Sunday. The government wanted the same cleared as it was unable to bring it in Parliament during the monsoon session. The government will now get a post facto approval of the cabinet.
The ordinance sent under Rule 12 of businesses and transactions was to amend the Enemy Property Act which guards against claims of succession or transfer of properties left by people who migrated to Pakistan or China after wars.
The bill had been passed in the Lok Sabha, but stalled in the Rajya Sabha as the opposition wanted it reviewed.
When the ordinance was sent to the President in May, there had been objections then too as an executive order was being issued despite Parliament having been in session in the interim.

If you've spent any time in the Big Data, analytics or BI space, you've probably heard the analogy, "data is the new oil." The phrase is meant to communicate the idea that data can be incredibly valuable but only if used in the right way. Simply possessing oil, or data in this case, means little to your business — it's what you do with it that counts.
Accordingly, there has been a slew of a smart data discovery tools introduced to the enterprise in an effort to monetize data. Gartner defines smart data discovery as "a next-generation data discovery capability that makes insights from advanced analytics accessible to business users or citizen data scientists."
Essentially, these tools make it easy for the average user to find and understand the insights hidden in their data. Assorted tools offer a range of benefits including streamlining data prep and automatically highlighting important findings via visualizations or narratives. These tools can do all these things without a user ever building a model or writing an algorithm.
What else is interesting is that although new algorithms are introduced (and are replaced) frequently, the general methodology used to analyze data and drive organizational change has not changed much over the years. The biggest change has been the trend towards automation of these methodologies through the introduction of smart data discovery tools enabling organizations to scale their analytics practices.
From my perspective, informed business analysis practices are even more important with the introduction of smart data discovery tools for the enterprise. Formalizing or even revisiting best practices while adopting new tools is a must. Per our oil analogy, best practices may mean the difference between monetizing a new pipeline or an offshore disaster.
Here are 5 reminders for any organization when adopting smart data discovery tools:
As the focus of many smart data discovery tools is to automate parts of the extraction, cleansing and analysis process, customers should look out for tools that can provide governance and auditability into this process. The ability to identify the who, what and why data changed or explain data inconsistencies is tantamount to trust and adoption of tools within the enterprise.
This is especially true of specific industries in which this information is highly regulated, such as financial services and healthcare.
Similarly, transparency of analyses allows users to build trust in a system which may ease adoption of emerging tools as advanced techniques are now hidden behind a simplified experience to reach the business user.
An added benefit of transparency is the ability for a tool to describe the steps it took to arrive at a specific outcome, which provides organizations with actionable insights instead of struggling to understand a "black box.

On 31 Jan 2012, at 1:27 PM, Rai, Pravesh R (STSD) wrote: > We are using Apache 2.2.21 with our product in HP. As we all know that during some failure operations, Windows OS stores the memory dump as .mdmp & .hdmp files. In our case we have observed credentials (in plain text) in those dump files, which is a security concern for us. Keep in mind that a dump file is just that - a snapshot of memory at a point in time. It is an unavoidable situation that in order for the server to work at all, credentials need to be held in a memory buffer for periods of time while those credentials are being used. There is no workout for this. What this in turn means is that those memory dumps are at all times a security risk, and should be treated with appropriate care and attention. Zeroing out memory buffers will never remove this requirement. That said, trying to minimise the number of copies of known-to-be-credential data that end up lying around is not a bad thing, but zeroing out absolutely everything has performance implications. If you want to do that, the secret would be to make the behaviour optional, so that the administrator can make up their own mind as to their priorities. I must stress again though - even if you went the whole hog and zeroed out all buffers after you used them, your memory dumps could still contain credentials, just less of them, but would still have to be treated with the same care as before. > During our investigation, we found that Apache source uses memcpy() at many places, which always leave behind the source string (in this case, credentials in plain text) in the memory. Also observed that the destination buffer, if bigger than the source buffer, always have remnants of its original content after copy/move operations. Such memory locations hold the data for unknown longer duration & any exception during the course exposes all these data in the dump file. > > > Have tried to modify few Apache source files, like: > > httpd\srclib\apr-util\buckets\apr_brigade.c (diff file w.r.t. to Apache 2.2.21: diff_apr_brigade.c.txt) This change above is a problem, because it attempts to zero out the data in the original bucket in the apr_brigade_flatten() function, and that breaks the function - overriding "const" in this situation should have warned you of this. There is no reason why a bucket can't be accessed twice (and in mod_cache, buckets are always accessed twice, once to write them to the cache, once to write them to the network). If you want to make a general across-the-board clear-out-everything switch, you would need to modify the apr pools code to optionally do this to run when cleanups are run. If you have a specific buffer that you want to ensure doesn't live longer than the current pool, use the apr_crypto_clear() function in apr-util v1.4+. However, keep in mind that pool lifetimes can vary from minutes (in the case of requests), to practically forever (in the case of keepalive connections), so you'll still be leaking some credentials in dumps.

Contest Review
Hot mamas and Junior Fitness Stars Steal the Show in Denver!
2007 Point Athletic Club NPC Carla Sanchez Fitness Fiesta, presented by Tokyo Joe's Saturday, October 20th, 2007. Denver, Colorado.
Denver, Colorado. The Mile High City. Home to the breathtaking Rocky Mountains, the National League Champion Colorado Rockies, and, as was evident on Saturday, October 20th, some of the hottest and fittest bodies west of the Mississippi.
The future stars of fitness and figure shone as brightly as ever on this sunny afternoon in a contest that is truly designed especially for them, from the spacious dressing rooms at the venue, to the helpful staff and homemade chocolate chip cookies backstage.
For the past five years, Rocky Mountain NPC chairman Jeff Taylor and IFBB fitness pro Carla Sanchez have promoted the Fiesta, the only NPC show in the country exclusively for fitness and figure competitors. With over 130 participants including crossovers, the contest is quickly becoming a favorite of first time competitors eager to test the waters before stepping onto a regional or national stage.
The absence of bodybuilding at this contest has not hindered its popularity, and the event continues to attract larger audiences, new sponsors, and several popular IFBB fitness and Figure stars, including Elaine Goodlad, who also provided makeup services for many of the contestants.
Colorado's newest figure pro Jessica Steffens was also on hand, returning the favor by helping out backstage and helping with award presentations. In addition to the outstanding fitness and figure athletes, the contest attracts top-notch entertainment, this year including guest performances by local dance company Elements of Motion, and the Denver Nuggets Dancers.
The Fitness Fiesta features three height classes in novice figure, three classes in masters and open figure, as well as a collegiate division. Many of the competitors chose to compete in all three divisions, which paid off for first time competitor Tara Green of Aurora, Colorado.
Tara won her class in all three divisions, and took the overall in both the Masters and Open categories. An outstanding athlete with beautiful symmetry and superb conditioning, Tara could easily hold her own on the national stage. I am certain we will be seeing a lot more of her in the years to come.
Special mention should also be made of Collegiate and Novice winner Lindsay Renee Huber. One of the tallest competitors in the competition, she caught the judges eye the moment she stepped on stage. This young woman is bursting with potential with awesome genetics and model good looks. With continued training, she will also fair well at the national level.
Fitness/Junior Fitness:
Similar to other contests around the country, the numbers were down this year in the fitness category, with only one participant in the men's and women's adult fitness divisions. University of Colorado student Kara Walsh took home the sole fitness award in her first contest, while returning champ Jason Carlton wowed the audience with his strength and killer dance moves.
Hands down, the highlight of this contest is always the junior fitness routines. The Fitness Fiesta is the only contest in the country to feature a junior fitness division where athletes as young as six compete in the 2-minute routine round.
This year, 11 young ladies thrilled the audience with their remarkable talent, mind-boggling flexibility and entertaining routines, many of which were choreographed by Denver Nuggets Dancer Keri Grogan. Returning competitor Bianca Laratta took top honors in the 8 and under division, followed by MaKayla Laurita in second, and Paulina Diegel in third.
In the 9-12 year division, Lexi Blecha placed first, while in the 13 and over division Dominique Laratta took the title for the fifth year in a row, displaying tumbling and strength moves that would make any IFBB fitness pro envious. These young ladies will surely be a forced to be reckoned with in the coming years.
Fitness Model Search:
Another highlight of the show came with the return of the Fitness Model search. In addition to the men's and women's divisions, this year introduced the fittest couple and hot mama divisions. Contestants competed in swimsuits and fitness attire for a multitude of prizes, including a photo shoot with fitness photographer and Bodysport.com owner Terry Goodlad, a portfolio shoot with local photographer Jason Hayes, and a free membership to the Point Athletic Club.
Figure participant TiaNiecia Mosley took top honors in the women's division, and Performance Ready athlete Amanda Berthoud received the fan favorite award. Amanda was also chosen by sponsor EST Nutrition to represent them in a national ad campaign. Returning champion Jason Carlton retained his title in the men's division, and was also voted the fan favorite.
For those that hold the belief that it's impossible to achieve an outstanding physique after having children, the 10 participants in the Hot Mama division of the model search proved them wrong, and then some. The Hot Mama award went to figure participant and mother of five Laurie Geisz of Colorado Springs, Colorado.
Fan favorite honors went to former bodybuilder and first time figure competitor Andie Vandenhul. There were even a few fit grandmothers in the group, proving you can have a fit body regardless of age. No more excuses, ladies! Laurie also took top honors in the Fittest Couple division, participating with friend and trainer Cody Pope.
Special Thanks:
Congratulations to Jeff Taylor and Carla Sanchez on another successful show, and to all of the inspiring contestants. You are proof of what you can achieve when you follow your fitness dreams, regardless of your age, or how many children (or grandchildren) you may have!

The Experience
The starting gun goes off at the Sea Otter Classic Cross Country race. You came in with a game plan of hanging in the pack for a while to conserve energy before launching your attack, but adrenaline got the better of you and you are already leading the pack with a few other racers as you head down the track towards turn four of the Laguna Seca Raceway. It's early but the pack is already starting to form a line as you leave the paved race track and head off into the dirt. There isn't much for shade on the course and after a while you can see the heat from the sun is affecting your competitors, but you trained and were ready for this. As you start the sandy climb, you decide that now is the time to launch. The two riders ahead are in a line on the right side of the trail. You swing hard to the left as you step on the gas and punch it to the top. The others reacted too late to your break away or they are starting to fade from the pace of the race so far, but that doesn't matter. Your launch got you out ahead and your lead is growing as the others struggle to keep up. You know the finish is close. Every muscle in your body is burning, your mouth is dry, and your lungs may very well explode, but you drop your head and push through the pain determined to win.
The Frame
The Epic is the most efficient full suspension bike in the world. The frame, constructed from FACT IS 9m carbon fiber, is one of the lightest and stiffest full suspension frames in existence. It's designed with a PF30 bottom bracket. When the PF30 BB came out, we all were saying, "Great, another BB type to worry about." But the PF30 quickly and convincingly showed everyone that it should be the only standard. The larger interface offers larger bearings that aide in smoother turning of the cranks, longer life of the bearings, and better power transfer to the rear wheel to help you sprint ahead or get to the top of that steep climb. The XC geometry puts you in an aggressive body position so that you are able to pedal efficiently and powerfully while maintaining control of the bike in the technical bits of trail, but it is also a very comfortable place to be for short and long rides. With a slightly longer chainstay (9mm longer) and slightly slacker head tube angle (0.5 degrees) compared to the Epic WC, the Epic Comp Carbon is slightly more stable in trickier trail situations making it a great fit for everyday riding and racing. The Epic platform is set up with 100mm front and rear travel to handle anything the trail may put in front of you.
The Suspension
Specialized has truly spared no expense to keep this bike in a class of its own. The legendary, patented Specialized FSR suspension system has been around for a long time and has been a staple of Specialized. What FSR (Future Shock Rear) gives you is a vertical axle path that isolates the suspension from any influences from your pedals or to your pedals. What that means to you is that you have fully active suspension 100% of the time allowing the bike to work with you, not against you. By separating pedal influence from your suspension, you don't get any pedal bob or suspension lock out. That is the pitfall of some other suspension designs. When you start to pedal, on those designs, you can either induce suspension compression (pedal bob) which means less of your pedal power is getting to the rear wheel driving you forward, or in other designs the opposite can happen and the suspension gets stiffer while you are pedaling. When that happens, you get less traction in the rough stuff. With FSR, that doesn't happen. Your rear wheel is free to respond to the terrain you are riding 100% of the time, giving you traction and better power output.
Specialized refined FSR even further thanks to the custom-designed FOX/Specialized Mini-Brain shock with AUTOSAG. AUTOSAG is an ingenious system that makes dialing in your suspension setting easier than ever. Just pump up the shock to 20-30psi above your weight, sit on the bike, let out the extra pressure from the blow-off valve, and you're air pressure for the rear shock is set. If you are not familiar with the Brain Fade shock system, it is an inertia valve that automatically turns the suspension "on" and "off" instantaneously to always provide the perfect ride. The inertia valve is mounted inside a near-vertical cylinder near the rear axle. The inertia valve controls the shock's ability to compress; the resulting system responds to terrain input (bumps and dips), but not to rider input (pedaling). Forces from the ground activate the inertia valve inside the Brain, which opens and allows the shock to absorb bumps. By using the blue dial on top of the Brain cylinder, you can control the breakaway threshold of the inertia valve in your Brain from stiff and efficient to super plush and active and anywhere in between, giving you the ability to tune your suspension to your riding style and the terrain you are riding.
Up front, Specialized spec'd a RockShox Reba RL 29 that features a Solo Air spring to tune the suspension to your weight, and rebound and lockout adjustments to tune the suspension to the terrain you are riding. To help keep the front end stiff, the Reba RL 29 features a 15mm thru-axle and an alloy, tapered steer tube. And the front and rear suspension set ups together and you get a pedaling platform that puts you way ahead of the competition.
The Components
The Epic Comp Carbon comes equipped with a Shimano XT and SLX 2x10 drivetrain with a custom SRAM front derailleur that has a proven track record. Accompanying the Shimano drivetrain is SRAM's S-1250 mountain cranks. For wheels, it is spec'd with the Roval 29 142+ on Specialized Hi Lo disc hubs wrapped with a Specialized tubeless ready S-Works Fast Trak tire up front and Fast Trak Control in the rear. These light weight wheels feature 22mm wide rims, and buttery smooth sealed cartridge bearings. The result is a cross country wheelset light enough to race on and strong enough to ride hard every day on. And while riding hard, you will not have to worry about getting the bike stopped either. Equipped with Formula C1 brakes (rotor sizes vary with frame size) you have all the power you need to get the bike stopped. But that isn't everything in a brake. Control over that power, known as modulation, is also important. You don't want the wheels to lock. You want to control how fast you are slowing down, and Formula brakes are some of the best in both categories. For precise steering, the Epic WC is equipped with a Specialized XC stem with 6 degree rise that can be flipped if you want a lower handlebar height and a Specialized XC Aluminum handlebar that is 700mm wide with an 8 degree backsweep to give you a comfortable hand position for all day excursions.
How does it Climb?
To put it simply, this is the best climbing bike out there. Some people will try to tell you that a hardtail will climb better, but this bike rides like a fully ridged bike when the conditions call for it. Some people say that a full suspension bike is better for climbing in the rough stuff, which is true. This rides like a full suspension bike when the conditions call for it. The Epic adapts to the terrain you are on to give you the best pedaling platform of any bike on the market. It is light and stiff. The suspension takes the guess work out of the suspension settings as it does it all for you and the 29 inch wheels roll smoothly over everything so you can keep your momentum up while on the way up. You cannot beat this bike up a hill.
How does it Descend?
While the Epic is thought of as a climbing bike, it still is a cross country bike and is very capable when it comes to heading down. The brain technology in the suspension does the same things for you on the way down as it does on the way up. The bike adapts to the terrain you are on to give you the best Cross County experience possible. It is fast and nimble on the descent, but keep in mind that it is not a Trail or All Mountain bike. It is a Cross Country race machine so you don't necessarily want to attack the descent like you would on the climb. But don't let anyone tell you the Epic doesn't descend well. It definitely does.
Final Opinion
The Specialized Epic is every cross country rider's dream. The level of performance that you get out of this cross country rig is unparalleled. There is nothing that climbs like it. There is nothing that adapts to the terrain like it, aside from the Specialized Stumpjumper FSR trail bike that has a similar Brain set up. The Epic is simply in a class of its own when looking at full suspension Cross Country bikes. Yes, there are bikes out there that will descend better, but those are the longer travel Trail and All-Mountain bikes that cannot compete with the Epic on the climbs. And if you were looking for a bike to slay the downhills on, you would probably be looking at a different category of bike anyway. This is a Cross Country race machine and it will make you faster, be it on race day or setting a new Strava PR or KOM.

The 2015 Specialized Epic does not disappoint. It still is a great XC designed platform. Really sharp handling, precise, and quick. Little wasted effort in pedaling, geometry is spot on, and is stiff. Everything you would want in a full suspension XC bike. However, my only gripe is the frame is pretty heavy with the brain at 5.6 lbs which is pretty heavy for an XC frame when many competitors have their XC full suspension frames in the low to mid 4lbs. I built up the Epic Carbon Comp frame with high end components and its final weight is 24.5lbs which is not the lightest but did add a dropper. So realistically, you can probably get it to just under 24lbs and with S-Works in the 22lb area.
Best Uses
Best bike I've ever ridden. My former bikes were all 26ers, 05 stump jumper, 07 epic, 2010 superlight and a Cannondale hard tail. I also did a demo ride on a Santa Cruz 5010C which was awesome but was 10k as tested! After some research I decided to buy the Epic carbon comp. This thing is fast and will go anywhere you point it. When you put the power to the pedals it jumps forward with no bob at all. It is a do it all bike in my opinion, I feels like a rocket on a gravel road, will bomb a downhill at speed, and makes short work of rooty/rocky sections or slick turns. At 5'10" and 170lbs my personal set up is 150psi in the fork, 4 clicks out on comp/5 clicks out on rebound, shock psi 180, 1 click out on comp, 4 clicks out on rebound, tube less tires, and 1x10 gearing with 34 up ft, I also cut 1" off the bar width. Shifts and brakes great and has a very comfortable riding position sitting or standing. Also very light for any price range full suspension, was 25.4lbs stock and now just under 24 as set up! One sick bike for the price!

In preventing Dynamo Kiev from advancing to the quarter-finals with the only unbeaten record in the competition, Newcastle finished two points ahead of the Barcelona team they beat on Tyneside back in September. They also claimed the consolation of pounds 240,000 in match prize-money, and a measure of pride in front of a 33,694 crowd, as their horizons narrowed from Continental matters to the pursuit of parochial honours.
"I think it speaks volumes for the lads that we've taken four points off Kiev," Dalglish said. "We certainly took the game seriously."
That much was evident when Faustino Asprilla appeared in the Newcastle starting line-up. Dalglish conceded that playing the Colombian against Arsenal on Saturday had been a mistake but he needed the one specialist striker at his disposal, with a near-capacity crowd packed into St James'.
Newcastle attacked from the start, Asprilla narrowly failing to connect with the cross Steve Watson delivered towards him from deep on the right. There was early evidence too, though, of Kiev's sharpness on the counter- attack.
Sergei Rebrov's blistering turn of pace left Alessandro Pistone helpless as the Kiev striker raced to meet what seemed to be an over-ambitious through ball, lofted from half-way by Yuri Kalitvintsev. Rebrov got his head to the ball but his effort looped over Shaka Hislop's crossbar.
There were only nine minutes gone when the ball was in the net at the other end. David Batty forged the opening, with a forceful run on the right, before slipping the ball to Barnes, who wrong-footed his marker and dispatched a right-foot shot into the bottom left corner.
It would have been swiftly followed by a second Newcastle goal but Robert Lee miskicked as he attempted to bury the chance Pistone served to him from the left wing. Newcastle, though, struck again in the 20th minute.
Or, rather, Pearce did. There was only one thing on the defender's mind when he touched an indirect free-kick to Lee just outside the left edge of Kiev's penalty area. The return ball was the cue for a hammering left- foot drive that was deflected as it flew past Alexandr Shovkovsky into the left corner of the Kiev net.
It was Pearce's first goal for Newcastle but the celebrations it prompted would have faded by half-time had Hislop not been in such agile form. The Newcastle keeper produced a brilliant one-handed save to keep out a thundering effort by Kalitvintsev and then denied Rebrov from point- blank range.
As well as a sizeable contingent from the Ukraine, the St James' crowd included representatives of Real Madrid, apparently attracted to Tyneside by the dazzling form Keith Gillespie produced in Newcastle's home win against Barcelona. The Bangor boy had little opportunity, however, to show that he was the Real thing on the wing.
Newcastle, in fact, struggled to pick up the attacking threads after half-time and just before the hour mark the tiring Asprilla made way for Temur Ketsbaia. The South American thus lost his chance of claiming the one goal he needed to equal Wyn Davies' record tally of 10 in Europe for Newcastle, though he departed to a standing ovation.
The same appreciation was afforded to Asprilla's colleagues at the final whistle. It was the end of the European Cup road for Newcastle, but the Toon Army were grateful for the ride.
Newcastle United (5-3-2): Hislop; Watson, Peacock, Albert, Pearce, Pistone (Hughes, h-t); Gillespie, Batty, Lee; Barnes, Asprilla (Ketsbaia, 57). Substitutes not used: Rush, Tomasson, Hamilton, Elliot, Given (gk).
Dynamo Kiev (4-4-2): Shovkovsky; Luzhnyi, Bezhenar, Mykhailenko, Dmitrulin; Volosianko (Radchenko, 79), Gusin (Venglinski, 79), Kalitvintsev, Kosovsky; Shevchenko, Rebrov. Substitutes not used: Kardash, Belkevich, Kernozenko (gk).

Five friends playing a video game become their characters through some crossed wires. They embark on an adventure that will change their lives and give them nachos.
Okay, let's cut to the chase. My name is Xavier. That's a good start. I'm fourteen years old. I play a cool game with a couple of my other friends. I'm a little tall for my age, have rough blonde hair, and cold grayish-blue eyes. I have no specific wardrobe, have almost no clue how tall I actually am, and am a very experienced fighter. I play the game with four other kids about my age, and we each specialize in a different class.
Wait, let me back up; give you some more information. In the game, we each have a team. The only real person on the team is the leader. The leader can choose what class they are, out of five different classes. They can then design their team using the five classes, and then fight with the others. The five classes are as follows: Warrior, Archer, Sorcerer, Spy, Beast.
Ashley specializes in Spy; Scott specializes in Archer; I specialize in Sorcerer; Aaron (a girl) specializes in Warrior; Jake specializes in Beast.
Ashley is extremely pretty and very nice. However, underneath the surface, she has a lot of secrets and is a fighter at heart. She was taken out of a public school and put into cyber-school after a bully picked on her. Not because the bully was beating her up, but because she actually won the fights. She's got really long black hair and bright green eyes. She's very tall and feminine-looking, but I've learned not to mess with her. Actually, the way we met is her flipping me over a fence.
Scott is a little shorter than I am, has dirty-blonde hair (mine is more bright gold), and a little bit more muscular. He's (usually) pretty cool, and knows more about birds than John James Audubon. Well, yeah, 'cause JJA has kind of… deceased. But that's not the point. His parents look nothing like him, and he has it in his head that he was adopted.
Aaron's eyes are violet and very pretty. Her hair is also black, and a little bit shorter than Ashley's. She's a warrior inside and out. She's really closed up to most people, but inside, she's a sympathetic person. She's taller than I am, which a source of extreme amusement to her. I also have a—shall we say—soft spot for her.
Jake's pretty much just a "meh" kind of guy. Jake is Jake and nothing more, nothing less. He's about my height, maybe a bit shorter, and a pretty easy-going guy. A lot of the "cool dudes" call him a pretty boy, but he's not. He does care about how he looks, but he's perfectly fine with running a comb through his hair and straightening his shirt. He's a really nice guy and very generous. But if you try to take advantage of him… it's like a werewolf! They're really nice, but under the right circumstances, they turn into a vicious beast.
So that's the group. Now read on!

Lake County authorities say Robby Beasley and Elijah McKay have been charged with the murders of Frank and Yvette Maddox earlier this year. Beasley was taken into custody on an unrelated warrant shortly after the bodies of the couple were found in March.Both Beasley and McKay are natives of Kennebec County, Maine Sheriff's Capt. Jim Bauman told The Sacramento Bee at the time that the couple had moved to Lake County from Maine to help Beasley with a marijuana operation. McKay was arrested in Georgia in October after fleeingCalifornia. The 30-year-old Beasley was arraigned Wednesday, while the 28-year-old McKay is expected to be arraigned Thursday. It was not known if Beasley had entered a plea. (AP)

Teacher - Katrina LowMature
I didn't understand why I had to take the food up but Natch had just handed me the plate and told me to take it to Rainer cause he missed dinner. I stood now awkwardly outside Rainer's door. It had been two days since I had gone at that raid and Rainer had followed me upstairs and kissed me. Eventually I knock clutching the plate in my hands tightly. The door swung open.
"I don't remember calling room service" he chuckled at me.
"You missed dinner I explained"
He shrugged. "I've been busy" he said to me. I didn't really care and just held the plate out to him. I wanted to go. I needed to get back to Pet who'd I'd sent back to the apartment when I'd been given the task of delivering Rainer's dinner. He took the plate from my hands so I turned to leave. "Leaving so soon?"
I stopped looking back at him. "Pet's waiting" I explained.
"I'm sure she can spare you for five minutes" Rainer said convincingly which made me turn to face him. Made me stop leaving. I had been scratching my hand a lot more since he had kissed me that night and I was doing it now my nails grating against the skin. "You'll make yourself bleed"
His disapproval made me stop but why did it matter to me? I never cared what someone thought. I'd never take orders to bring someone dinner after they had missed it. I was starting to worry about Pet again. Why hadn't I been worrying?
"Much better" he said and strangely I flushed. I didn't really understand the reaction and neither have one that was any better. Rainer chuckled
"I should get back to Pet" I muttered.
"Or you could stay here with me for a while"
"Pet's on her own" I whispered. I never liked leaving her on her own. Even when she was saying I should help out leaving her made me worried. What if she got hurt while I was gone? What if something happened and I wasn't there to protect her?
"She's hardly on her own, somewhere like this" he said but his words didn't stop my worrying. "C'mon" he says gesturing I should come into his apartment. Why did I have to go in?
I hesitated still thinking of Pet. How could I not? "But.... Pet...." I muttered.
"Will be fine" he said and I frowned. I didn't know what to do. I really didn't. "She's not a baby, Kat" his voice was stern as he said it. I gave in with a sigh wandering in. The moment I was in thoughts assaulted me of what he could do.
The door closed behind me hitting a terrified part of me but Rainer just walked past me sitting down lazily on the sofa. "I managed to get the TV working"
"Why bother?" I asked him. Surely nothing interesting was on?
"Beats sitting around doing nothing" he said. I stood where I was awkwardly. I wasn't sure what to do. Rainer gestured at the sofa as he flicked on the TV before starting to eat. I came over and perched on the sofa. I felt so uncomfortable. Why had I come it? "Whoever lived here before liked movies"
"I don't..." I said trailing off.
"How come?"
"Its lazy" I said. I preferred training. Making sure I was always ready. That's probably why when the zombies had broken out and I'd watched the gym manager grab out at someone I wasn't the one in the way being grabbed. I was prepared.
"What do you do for fun then? Snap spines?" he said sarcastically.
"I use to train"
"Training isn't fun"
"It is for me" I snap turning my eyes on him feeling a little hurt. So I didn't do what other people did. Everyone was entitled to their own way of life. Their own way of fun.
Rainer chuckled. "You'd get eaten up so fast in the army" he told me making me wince. He turned back to the TV and I almost felt dismissed. That's another reason I didn't like it. I got up with the intention to leave. "Going somewhere?" he asked but I ignored him just moving towards the door to leave. His voice turned stern and he said my name.
I stopped. "What?" I questioned.
"Get back here"
It hit me. I always listened when my father had spoken to me like that and no one had since but now. Now as he demanded me to go back I didn't know what to do. It had been so long. I had tasted what doing what you wanted was like. I turned my head to look at Rainer and just found him waiting.
He had a firm expectation on his face I'd listen. I couldn't stop my body from walking back over. I felt like a puppet. Rainer smiled. "At least you know how to follow orders" he said which made me clench my fists. "Easy" his voice warned.
I stayed silent just stood there before him feeling like a puppet. It was the same feeling I'd had around my father. I couldn't help but listen to him. Do as he told me. He demanded respect and he got it.
"Fine. You like training, lets train" he said standing up.
I was a little shocked. "W-What?" I stuttered.
"You heard me. Hand-to-hand. Let's go"
"But...?" he question. I stepped back bringing my arms ups and crouching my knees getting into a fighting stance. "Ladies first"
"I don't start fights" I whispered. I didn't want to do this. I didn't know why. I loved to train. To fight and practice my skill but... for some strange reason right now I didn't really want to.
"This isn't a fight. Not yet anyway"
"No" I whispered. I just couldn't. I really couldn't.
"I wasn't asking, Kat" he said in the way that hit that part of me. I shook my head. Couldn't he see I just couldn't? I physically couldn't for the first time in my life. "Move your ass before I move it for you" I shook my head. "Chicken"
I wince looking down. Why? The thought was repetitive in my head. "What's the matter, scared you'll break a nail?"
"Shut up" I said weakly trying to leave. He blocked the exit. I didn't know what else to do. I swiped his legs out from under him with one firm kick of my leg. I tried to jump by him to leave. I had to leave. I didn't want to this. Rainer grabbed my bad knee though. I don't know how he knew but it made me trip.
Soon I felt a knee on my back pinning me down. I didn't fight cause I hadn't wanted to in the first place. Keeping me pinned he leant down. "Looks like I win this one" he whispered in my ear. I don't know when I had started crying but I was.
I never lost. Never gave in. Rainer got off to let me up but I only sat up. I felt cold like I'd given up some part of me. I saw Rainer looking at me but I couldn't look at him. Why couldn't I fight?
"Sore loser?"
"Piss off"
"Did daddy teach you you're invincible or something?"
"I said piss off"
"Make me" he said and so I did. I jumped him and with a bit of scrambling I soon had him pinned down with his head in a lock. Rainer merely chuckled and quickly I let him go. As I let go. He kissed me and I froze cause again it was sudden catching me unexpected. "I like a girl who can defend herself" he chuckled while I found my cheeks heating up.
He kissed me again. It was soft and warm. I let him kiss me but still didn't kiss back. "You never kiss back" Rainer noted.
"I..." I began but trailed off as I blinked. I didn't know why I didn't. I... don't think I knew how.
"I don't know how" I admitted to him. Kisses were so weird to me. Like something that I thought I would never touch. So therefore... I didn't understand how they worked.
"How 'bout I teach you?" he said making me flush. He smirked and hit a part of me that buzzed at the attention. Then there was that part of me that didn't. That part of me that looked away. Rainer's hand touched my face turning it back to face him. I was... scared. "Just relax and go with it"
I swallowed still nervous, scared, terrified or however you wanted to put it. He then kissed me again and I went with it like he'd said. I felt things stir in me I hadn't felt before. "See? That wasn't so hard" he said and I looked away embarrassed.
I saw him smile in the corner of my eye but didn't do anything else. I sat still. "Still in a hurry to get back to Pet?" he asked stroking my cheek.
It hit me like a slap in the face. "Oh god, Pet.." I whispered feeling utter guilt. I hadn't thought about her for this whole time. What kind of guardian was I?
"I'm sure she's fine" but those words didn't stop me from trying to leave. Again. This time though Rainer let me leave and I raced back to my apartment.

On December14, residents of the Surra community of Shabran region gathered to mark the successful completion of the construction of a pedestrian bridge over the Davachi River. They were joined by representatives of the local ExCom and the municipality, officials from the Ministry of Economy and Industry (MEI), and U.S. Ambassador to Azerbaijan Robert F. Cekuta.The bridge was constructed by a local NGO, UMID, and co-financed by the governments of the United States and Azerbaijan.
The Davachi Riverruns through Surra, located 3km off the Baku-Guba highway,splitting the village apart, which complicates daily communication and school attendancefor over 40 families. The situation worsenedduring the rainy season as there wasno bridge at the key crossing point.
To address this issue, the SurraCommunity Development Council worked with the SEDA project to construct a 42 meter long pedestrian bridge over theDavachi Riverto connect the town and improve safety for its residents.
"The completion of Surra's pedestrian bridge is a clear example of what can be achieved when local communities organize to help themselves,"said Ambassador Cekuta as he thanked the community for their dedication to mobilize local resources to improve their living conditions.
MatlabJafarov, the representative of the MEI in Shabranregion,describedvarious infrastructure projects in the regions financed by the Azerbaijani government for improving living conditions of the population. Mr. Jafarov praised the cooperation with USAID under the SEDA project and emphasized its contribution to the State Program on Socio-Economic Development of the Regions.
Implemented by the East-West Management Institute with support from the Ministry of Economy and Industry and the Council for State Support to NGOs, USAID-funded SEDA promotes fuller participation of citizens, civil society organizations and local and central government institutions to advance socio-economic development in their communities.

Very happy with the unit. It arrived when expected and all the related equipment is working as advertised.
At this price it should be perfect
Written By: Brian , Budapest, Hungary 11/5/2012
The S9 is so close to perfect, but at the price, it should be absolutely perfect. It is definitely the quietest machine I've ever used, but on the exhale, with the humidifier, it whistles. A long, low whistle, like a storm wind in a narrow gap between buildings, just loud enough to keep me from sleeping if I notice it. And I can't help but notice it. I've found that if I maintain a lower water level, the whistle is much quieter, but still present. However, and what I love about the machine, is that breathing with it (at 10 cm pressure) is exactly like normal breathing. I don't feel like there's a cannon blasting air up my nose on the inhale, and I don't feel like I'm pushing against a wind on my exhale. Now if that damn whistling would just stop.
Very impressive machine
Written By: MikeB, Rancho Palos Verdes 4/1/2012
Much quieter than my older S8. The pressure algorithm is almost perfect for me, making breathing in and out very easy. The H5i with ClimateLine is a great addition, keeps the air warm/moist but no rainout. I have it set at 80F, the default setting. I'm using it with the Swift FX nasal mask. The two make a superb combination of quiet and comfort.

Choose any three by three square of dates on a calendar page...
Make a set of numbers that use all the digits from 1 to 9, once and
once only. Add them up. The result is divisible by 9. Add each of
the digits in the new number. What is their sum? Now try some other
possibilities for yourself!
What happens to the perimeter of triangle ABC as the two smaller
circles change size and roll around inside the bigger circle?
It was good to see so many attempts at the solution to this
problem. Try to remember that it is important to explain to the
reader each of the steps you take. Whilst many of you used some
element of trial and improvement in your method, which is fine, you
did not explain some of the things that you worked out before you
started trying different values. For example, many of you knew that
E = 1 and it was worth explaining why this was the case. In the
same way you were able to state that B=9 but only a few of you
tried to tell me how you knew this. Look at the detail in the
solution below, it may help you next time.
Finally, if several of you are sending in solutions from a
single school it might be worth looking at what each of you has
done to see if there are any patterns that you could use to extend
your answers and then send in a joint solution. Often the result
will be greater than each of the parts and it is good to talk about
what you are doing.
Congratulations to:
Clement Goh of the River Valley School, Singapore;
Elisabeth Elvidge, Alice Lewin and Alice Unwin of the Mount School,
Danielle Yule, Laura Lancaster, Briony Pollard and Emma Dellany of
the Mount School, York;
Prateek Mehrotra of Riccarton High School, New Zealand;
Andrei Lazanu of School number 205, Bucharest;
for identifying all the possible values for the digits. I have used
Andrei's, Prateek's and Clement's solutions as the basis of what is
Solution We know that E =1 because this is the
greatest amount that can be carried in an addition sum with two
From the units:
From the hundreds:
We have
1. If D = 0
But B ?F, so D can't be 0.
2. D?1 because E = 1
3. If D = 2
F can't be 1, because E ?F so D ?2
4. If D = 3
Trying all possible combinations for A + C = 12:
5. If D = 4
Trying all possible combinations for A and C:
6. If D = 5
7. If D = 6
8. If D = 7
There are 12 solutions. These are all the solutions of the
problem. They are written in the following table:

Our lunch interrupted this exercise in people watching and before long we were preparing for the final leg of the walk for the day. We climbed and climbed away from the beach, heading inland and into a new valley that was difficult to see over the hedges of fuchsias and blackberries. We climbed and climbed, a gradual but nonetheless persistent ...
Week 3
Well, week 3 in Ireland has been just as action packed as the previous two. On Sunday (7/27) we did the Torc Mountain hike again. This time we drove up the Old Kenmare Rd until we got the car park and hiked from there which made a HUGE difference. When we first started out we started getting passed by hordes of hikers on a cancer walk. Luckily they were not going up the trail to the summit. Getting to the summit was still difficult for me, but much easier than last ...
