It's still a little early to be slotting all of the NFL's draft needs with the available talent, but one thing that is becoming clearer as the NFL Scouting Combine ends today is that the 2013 draft is going to be defense-heavy – not due to the need for NFL defenses to adjust to the unprecedented scoring that has taken place in recent years, but because the Class of 2013 is lacking in blue-chip offensive talent.
Over the past few years, quarterbacks have dominated the draft. This year, it can be argued that only two QBs – Geno Smith and Matt Barkley – are going to get selected in the first round and both are viewed as a reach if taken in the top 10 picks.
The running back position has seen its first-round numbers drop, the theory being that running back talent can be found in the early rounds, but isn't necessarily a need in the first round. There is the distinct possibility that there might not be a first-round back coming off the board simply due to a lack to top-end talent.
While the wide receiver crop is relatively deep, there isn't an A.J. Green or Julio Jones in this year's draft class. There are talented role players with a specific niche that make them valuable players, but not a requirement for first-round selection.
The offensive tackle position – a staple of the first round of the draft for teams in need – looks to be the one offensive exception. Luke Joeckel of Texas A&M is primed to be a top-three or -four pick, and Eric Fisher and Lane Johnson could both be gone in the first half of the first round.
On the defensive side of the ball, the draft is deep in defensive line talent. By the time the first round is done, almost half of the top picks could come from the defensive line, which will likely be the positions where runs take place for teams in need, and trades could take place as teams jockey for position to get involved with one of the deepest positions for themselves.
The name of the game in the NFL these days is centered almost exclusively on the offensive side of the ball. But, on draft weekend (or at least the opening night of the draft), it would appear at this point that defense is going to be the focus of attention.

Cosplay Bio
I first came interest in cosplay when I went to a number of the film / anime conventions, I keep seeing cosplayers and skits from the inter-net. And that point I said, 'if I like all things Anime...I might as well join in too!' So I came as Leon from RE4, but it wasn't impressive. But laters I've gone as L and Near (Death Note), Zangetsu, Shinji Hirako and Isshin Kuroskai (Bleach). Being in a group of Cosplay and anime fans alike, I feel like...this is my people, I can enjoy with the talking and fun with them.

Don't move!
I want to shout.
I can't,
They won't listen.
I have a poem to write
I must scream,
Stop moving!
They can't hear me.
A line, one stanza,
It must be done.
Now I'm stuck with the rhyme.
Stay still; keep your place up there.
I have laundry to fold.
A shirt, a skirt and two more socks.
I'm done, please wait!
Running around,
Don't rush! Please wait!
Why do they have to run so fast?
Why can't they hear my entreaties?
I'm begging you,
The hands of the clock,
Please wait,
Don't be so fast,
I have so much work to do.

January 22nd- The 2009 Protagonists' Diary
Dear Diary,
I am sitting in Los Angeles at the moment, watching the raindrops fall outside my bedroom window. They remind me of the millions of souls wandering the LA streets, dropping their footsteps to the ground, leaving an imprint that will disappear moments later.
I used to like rain. I used to think it was the blood of nature, visiting the cities around the world a few times each year, revitalizing them with its purity. I'd watch the water puddle, then disappear as the trees soaked up new life. I used to think like that, but no longer. Now rain is cold, more dense, driving its force through the streets, overwhelming the populations on which it descends.
The floodwaters are beginning to rise here. One can almost sense the pressure building as the riverbanks try to retain the flow. It is like this all over the nation now. Pressure. We are a nation trying to keep our heads above water, terrified of drowning in the dire straits of financial decay.
The rain pours harder. The water deepens. We reach our heads up and open our mouths, praying someone will hear our screams, hoping for sanctuary from the swirling currents of poverty and despair. I look around and see others treading wildly, willing to succumb to the waters, if only to gain a moment of air for their children whom they hold overhead. They are protecting the future, if only for the moment. Still, the rain comes down. I hold you, my diary, to the air, praying my words will find safety in the hands of some future soul, one dedicated to…I cannte se…the paje…the wautur..(cough cough)… izzz 2 dep.

text: Preparing for Parenthood The most important job in the world required NO training!?!? • • How to prepare for Parenthood… Lesson 1 A really good way to discover how the nights might feel… 1. Get home from work and immediately begin walking around the living room from 5PM to 10PM carrying a wet bag weighing approximately 8-12 pounds, with a radio turned to static (or some other obnoxious sound) playing loudly. (Eat cold food with one hand for dinner) 2. At 10PM, put the bag gently down, set the alarm for midnight, and go to sleep. 3. Get up at 12 and walk around the living room again, with the bag, until 1AM. 4. Set the alarm for 3AM. 5. As you can't get back to sleep, get up at 2AM and make a drink and watch an infomercial. 6. Go to bed at 2:45AM. 7. Get up at 3AM when the alarm goes off. 8. Sing songs quietly in the dark until 4AM. 9. Get up. Make breakfast. Get ready for work and go to work (work hard and be productive) Repeat steps 1-9 each night. Keep this up for 3-5 years. Look cheerful and together. • Lesson 2 Dressing small children is not as easy as it seems. 1. Buy an octopus and a small bag made out of loose mesh. 2. Attempt to put the octopus into the bag so that none of the arms hang out. • Time allowed for this – all morning. • Lesson 3 Forget the BMW and buy a mini-van. And don't think that you can leave it out in the driveway spotless and shining. Family cars don't look like that. 1. Buy a chocolate ice cream cone and put it in the glove compartment. Leave it there. 2. Get a dime. Stick it in the CD player. 3. Take a family size package of chocolate cookies. Mash them into the back seat. Sprinkle cheerios all over the floor, then smash them with your foot. 4. Run a garden rake along both sides of the car. • Lesson 4 Go to the local grocery store. Take with you the closest thing you can find to a pre-school child. (A full-grown goat is an excellent choice). If you intend to have more than one child, then definitely take more than one goat. Buy your week's groceries without letting the goats out of your sight. Pay for everything the goat eats or destroys. Until you can easily accomplish this, do not even contemplate having children. • Lesson 5 1. Hollow out a melon. 2. Make a small hole in the side. 3. Suspend it from the ceiling and swing it from side to side. 4. Now get a bowl of soggy Cheerios and attempt to spoon them into the swaying melon by pretending to be an airplane. 5. Continue until half the Cheerios are gone. 6. Tip half into your lap. The other half, just throw up in the air. • You are now ready to feed a nine-month-old baby. • Lesson 6 Make a recording of Fran Drescher saying 'mommy' repeatedly. (Important: no more than a four second delay between each 'mommy'; occasional crescendo to the level of a supersonic jet is required). Play this tape in your car everywhere you go for the next four years. You are now ready to take a long trip with a toddler. • Lesson 7 Start talking to an adult of your choice. Have someone else continually tug on your skirt hem, shirt- sleeve, or elbow while playing the 'mommy' tape made from Lesson 6 above. You are now ready to have a conversation with an adult while there is a child in the room. Why Study Children? • To understand yourself -appreciate how children grow & develop -we are today in part of what we were as children -gives us insight into our own growth & development Why Study Children? • To be a responsible parent -understand children's needs at each developmental stage and be able to respond to these -realistic expectations for parenting Why Study Children? • To Pass Down Culture -Includes language, attitude, values, skills and rituals -children make it possible for a culture to continue Why Study Children? • To Protect Children's Rights -Children are easily hurt because they are physically weaker and cannot reason as adults; therefore society must protect them Every Child has the Right to: An identity A family Express themselves & have access to information A safe and healthy life Special protection in times of war Special care for the disabled Protection from discrimination Protection from abuse Protection from harmful work Special treatment if arrested (Convention on the Rights of the Child – UNICEF) Why Study Children? • To Work with Children -adults with child-related careers must study children Parental Responsibilities • PHYSICAL NEEDS: Providing appropriate nutrition, clothing, shelter, hygiene, health care, physical fitness, and sleep routines • SAFETY NEEDS: Creating child safe environment, including the use of proper car seats, information about Shaken Baby Syndrome (SBS) & Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) Parental Responsibilities • EMOTIONAL NEEDS: Developing children's ability to trust, care, nurture, empathize and love by responding effectively to children's needs • SOCIAL NEEDS: Providing the appropriate foundation for positive and productive relationships with others and teaching appropriate social behaviour Parental Responsibilities • INTELLECTUAL NEEDS: Providing the appropriate sensory stimulation necessary for optimum brain development • ETHICAL NEEDS: Help children develop morality, conscience, and character that will guide them throughout life Are You Prepared?

Cocoon Out
Ten years ago Sven Väth was trying to conquer America. He had a contract with Warner Bros. and a Los Angeles outpost for his acclaimed Frankfurt-based record labels Harthouse and Eye Q.
But America wasn't ready for the techno and trance sounds of Germany. Väth's Warner Bros. contract fizzled after his three albums for the label sold poorly, and he shuttered Harthouse/Eye Q soon after. "I changed my ambitions of breaking into the American market because for me it all was a little overcommercialized," he says now. The truth is, Väth's efforts were both lost in translation and perhaps a bit too ahead of their time.
Leaving his American ambitions behind, Väth went into a cocoon, both figuratively and literally. He built the Cocoon Club, a state-of-the art facility with a lounge, late-night restaurant, and an unusual 360-degree visual environment meant to look like a breathing organism; and a new label, Cocoon Recordings. This year Cocoon will celebrate its sixth summer of hosting parties on Ibiza, seasons he annually documents via his mix CD series The Sound of the Season.
For more information, check out www .cocoon.net.
Sven Vth performs at Space on Tuesday, March 22. See listings for more info.
When he takes to the turntables in Miami, expect to get a taste of Cocoon: a skillful blending of disco, electro, techno, and what Väth calls "wave," meaning an updated form of New Wave (which isn't new anymore). Marathon sets of up to eight hours are something he's well versed in, so you can believe he'll keep the few hours he has to play filled with nontop action.
Even though he's on the veteran end of the game, Väth dances with his crowd like an excited little kid full of boundless energy. And if his work ethic of the past two decades is any indication, he's not giving up until people everywhere feel the groove. "I see more potential in other countries to get things working for the music we do," he says. "However we will keep on trying to convince the Americans of the quality of German electronic music."

Take a look at the new face of awesome. The Mercedes-Benz F-CELL Roadster brings us back to our horse and buggy roots, minus the smelly horses. With a joystick control, fiberglass body and nifty hydrogen-electric fuel-cell power, we can't help but salivate over how freakin' cool this thing looks.
The buggy has rid itself of conventional inventions like the steering wheel and instead, uses a joystick. But if you look past the giant, spoked wheels, the buggy contains all of Mercedes top-of-the-line technologies and boasts a carbon fiber and fiberglass body structure, a compact 1.2 kW fuel cell for power generation and – holy schmoly – a top speed of 16 mph. Whoa there, Tiger.
"This project impressively demonstrates that the topic of sustainable mobility has become an integral part of our vocational training," said Human Resources Board member and Labor Relations Manager Günther Fleig. "I am delighted to see how much initiative and creativity the young people have put into this project."

Explore one of Washingtons most famous ghost towns and the site of the states biggest gold rush.
Total Distance:
9.5 miles
Total Ascent:
Highest Point:
Our Hiking Time:
Required Permit:
Northwest Forest Pass
To get there, take I-5 North to Exit 194. Follow Highway 2 for about two miles. Stay in the left lane and merge onto Lake Stevens Highway 204. Follow for two miles to Highway 9. Take the left onto Highway 9 toward Lake Stevens. In just under two miles, youll reach Highway 92 to Granite Falls. Take a right and follow for about nine miles to the Mountain Loop Highway. Take the MLH for 31 miles to Barlow Pass. Park and find the gated Monte Cristo Road on the right side of the road, opposite the trailhead parking lot.
View Google Directions >>
This is a decent hike that should be approachable for almost anyone, especially those interested in a little history. To get the most out of your visit, we recommend you stop at the Verlot Ranger Station on your way out to Barlow Pass to pick up a pamphlet that includes a map of Monte Cristo and explanations of the various marked sites in the town. After you are done touring the town you may be looking to do a little more hiking. If thats the case you can continue up to Glacier Falls and
Glacier Basin
. Or you can retrace the pre-railroad approach to Monte Cristo with hike up to Poodle Dog Pass #708, named in honor of Frank Peabodys dog, which he evidently took with him when he climbed the pass on his way to Monte Cristo from
Mineral City
This hikes only challenge is the river crossing, but that may soon be changing. A new access road will be on the other side of the river, connecting with the current road after the washout. The road is being built to support a massive cleanup effort focusing on containing the arsenic and other heavy metals churned up by Monte Cristos mining past. The cleanup will begin in fall of 2013 lasting to the summer of 2015, during that time the plan is to close the townsite. How the new road will be used after the cleanup is still undecided. Luckily, even though a little snow has fallen, you still have some weekends left to visit Monte Cristo before its shuttered until 2015.
There's a lot more to Monte Cristo, and you can learn all about it in our book, Hiking Through History Washington. You'll find a trail map, route descriptions, history, and more for this and many more hikes throughout the State. Help support hikingwithmybrother.com and the work we do by picking up a copy!

Burning Woods
Amy Gauld follows her true love and adoring fiance to his world of mystery, with his loving pack that treat each other like family. However, every family has its problems and theirs follow them everywhere, even to the lost forest you won't find on any maps. With enemys hiding around every corner, can Amy ever acheive the 'normal' life she always wanted?
Streaks of dirt covered the window panes of the small cottage, ivy crawled up the outside walls like hands reaching for a saviour. Someone far away was whistling as they chopped fire wood and footsteps crunched on the gravel of the empty drive way outside. Seth had taken the Range rover up north with Hannah. Their scents still lingered on the sofa and in the kitchen and whenever their bedroom doors were open it wafted out in waves, crashing against the walls. Hannah always had a flowery scent, like rose petals that were vibrant and colours, fresh and faintly smelling sweetly. Disappointment dripped thickly from Amy's small figure where a heavenly glow surrounded her silhouette from the fire she was sat beside. Torn papers drifted to the floor as they spilled off the shelves with a whoosh of force with their weight. Nothing made her even flinch. Amy moved only when there was a brisk knock at the door that made her jump. Nobody ever came to their small house. The bills were always paid on time and there were never any family members that came to visit. That meant that he must be back. "Beck," Amy breathed the word as she drifted like a ghost towards the oak door. A smile lit up her tear stained face whilst the puffy red around her eyes faded, along with the room behind her. When the muddy brown door opened, Amy leapt out of the spot she had been standing in. Her arms wrapped around a lean man with ink black hair that hung just above his eyes that glittered ocean blue. Brilliant white gleamed from his perfect teeth that showed in a much needed smile. "I'm so glad your home."

Kevin Jennings, the controversial gay-left activist appointed by Obama to be the "safe schools czar" at the Department of Education, has been completely omitted by ABC, CBS, and NBC -- until last Saturday.
The networks ignored Jennings' controversial record -- how he wrote about counseling a teenaged boy to use a condom before meeting an adult man in a bus stop restroom, and how his group the Gay Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN) counseled high school students in dangerous sexual techniques like "fisting." But Saturday's NBC Nightly News publicized him in a Jeff Rossen story on bullying and the teen suicide of Phoebe Prince.
They promoted how Jennings and the Department of Education were pouring "hundreds of millions of dollars" into a federal anti-bullying campaign:
ROSSEN: In Springfield, Massachusetts, a young boy hanged himself last year after being teased about his size. In Ohio, Jessie Logan hanged herself after a nude photo was spread around her school. Experts say warning signs are often there.
BARBARA COLOROSO: They hang up from their phone and they're sad or sullen, they get off the Internet and they look a little frightened, these are all clues that you and I as parents need to be clued in to.
ROSSEN: And education officials are worried, too, worried bullying is causing a drop in the graduation rate. Now the federal government is pouring hundreds of millions of dollars into a new anti-bullying campaign.
KEVIN JENNINGS, U.S. Department of Education: What keeps me up at night, and everyone in the U.S. Department of Education, is the idea that out there there are children who'd rather die than go to school.
ROSSEN: The desperate choice that's left this Massachusetts town grieving.
Unidentified Woman: I hope people will get a lesson out of it.
ROSSEN: A lesson that came too late for Phoebe Prince.
Jennings' group GLSEN had a reading list that not only explicitly promoted homosexual activity, but explicitly boasted of sexual activities in grade school and sex between adults and children below the age of consent. How this man represents a "safe schools" agenda is a mystery.

1. Like the mixed grill at a meat raffle, Sofia Vergara was the consolation prize at TV's Emmy Awards. The actor was twirled on a Lazy Susan during the ceremony, presumably to spruik a role in the reality series Women or Whitegoods? Feminists debated whether Vergara was being objectified, or cleverly subverting the misogyny of the entertainment industry, or just showing off her bottom. "Somebody can be hot and funny," she said, in case anyone was listening. For the record, Vergara wore a Roberto Cavalli gown, while screenwriter Lena Dunham dressed as a toilet roll holder and several women arrived in Zara's latest Holocaust haute-couture.
2. Also enjoying an award was Kevin Andrews, who won the title of Natural Family Man of the Year, narrowly beating Fred Nile, Cory Bernardi and a chair. The Social Services Minister's commitment to traditional marriage and hurricane-proof hair was applauded by Christian group The World Congress of Families, which is opposed to gays, childcare centres and the 21st century. Andrews thanked Baby Jesus and Advanced Hair Studios for his award. But he declined to endorse the Natural Family Woman of the Year, won by a Nigerian activist who supports jail terms for homosexuals. "I draw the line at imprisoning Indian doctors," Andrews said.
3. Cabinet colleague Barnaby Joyce added oncologist to his roles as agriculture minister and spokesman for "strong women". The New England MP, who holds a doctorate in goat husbandry, reckoned Australia's debt was like a skin tumour: "It's a financial melanoma, it will kill you." Dr Barnyard also compared the current account deficit to elephantitis, while diagnosing the Nationals with dysentery and the Senate with a nasty yeast infection. Education Minister Christopher Pyne joined in by telling students protesting budget measures that he was "not exactly asking for their left kidney". "It's just a flesh wound," Nurse Poodle said of the proposed education cuts.
4. Slim Dusty is dead but undimmed in the vibrant world of country music. The warbler – winner of 37 Golden Guitars at the Tamworth Country Music Awards, held in Barnaby Joyce's electorate – marked 800 weeks in the ARIA charts for his "very" best of album. Wars have been waged, dictators overthrown and twerking invented but Slim has stayed strong since 1988, with songs such as G'Day G'Day and Don't Bare Your Bits on a Hay Bale. The Top 40 country chart also features such game-changers as Tailgates & Tanlines (82 weeks in the charts) and The Ray Hadley Country Music Collection Volume 3 (7 days).
5. Fellow singer Justin Bieber recast himself as the People's Princess after a bingle with a photographer's car. "There should be laws against what I just experienced," wailed the 20-year-old, before being consoled by a minder. "We should have learnt from the death of Princess Diana." The fender bender, in which Bieber's Ferrari was scratched by the paparazzo's Prius, was not quite the twisted wreck that killed the Princess of Wales but, like, whatever. "I don't have a problem with paparazzi but when they act recklessly they put us all in the danger," Bieber blathered. "Just look at what they've done to the duco!"
6. Speaking of prepubescent prats, Charlize Theron railed against the popular obsession with youth. "It's ironic that we've built the beauty world around 20-year-olds, when they have no f---in' concept about wisdom, what life is about," the practically decrepit 39-year-old actor said. Older women were treated "like a dead flower. It's like we wilt for some reason. And men are like fine wines – the older they get, the better they get. It's such a misconception," she said, citing 18 of the 19 members of the federal cabinet. It's time people look up to older women, Theron reckons. "Though perhaps not Sofia Vergara," she added.

It was maybe midnight now. I peered around a corner. There wasn't anyone there. I double checked behind me, and still, I was alone. I shifted into a pretty blond that was maybe in her mid twenties.
I walked around the corner as if I owned the place, even though I was still totally alone. But this was very dangerous, and if I was seen, I didn't need my cover blown.
Every so often I had changed from disguise to disguise. You could never be too safe when your dealing with Silver Liners. They're cunning, and smarter than they look- sometimes. If it wasn't for the fact that I know who absolutely everyone is, and what they do, I wouldn't even be here right now.
Few cars passed. Some young men on their way home honked at me and slowed down, asking if I wanted to have some fun. Disgusting.
I shifted again into a brunette this time. I turned another corner in this maze of a city, surprised to see some people on the street. They weren't Silver Liners, but they definitely weren't harmless humans. They were in the middle of dealing drugs, and I was half tempted to turn around, though I don't know why. I didn't have anything to fear of them.
I turned around anyways; my gut was telling me that's what I needed to do. And I always listened to my gut, no matter how hard it was for me. That's what Gut had said when Carson and I parted. My heart still ached for him, but, now that I was with the B.S.C., it didn't hurt as much. I walked straight for two blocks and took a left. Sky scrapers and large company buildings lined the streets, and I could hear the bass of a club's music.
"Hello," a deep voice said behind me. I spun around on my heal, ready to punch someone's face in. Just my luck.
It was a Silver Liner. Luckily, he didn't know that I was a Shifter. If you could call it luck.
He stepped forward and I thrust my fist into his face. He caught it though, inches away from his nose.
"You're a feisty one, aren't you?" He grinned a horrible smile.
I tried hitting him with my other free hand, but that didn't work either. I tried the next best thing: knee to the groin.
Quickly, though, he now held both of my wrists in one hand, and had grabbed my leg, stopping any chance of moving. I butt my head in his face, and he stumbled back, letting go of me. He recovered quickly though; much to quickly. Before I knew it, he had me pinned to a cold brick wall.
"Watch yourself," he laughed. My feet were lifted off the ground, and he had a good grip around my neck. I couldn't breathe. To be totally honest with myself, I was terrified. A car passed on the barely busy road, slowing down.
The Silver Liner whose name was Markus was momentarily distracted, and I seized my chance, kicking him as hard as I could. He released me and I took off running down the street. Markus was angry now, and I knew he was chasing me.
Left, and a right, another left- I was still running down the streets of New York City. I couldn't go back to Head Quarters; that would compromise our mission.
I led Markus on in a zig zag pattern of twists and turns. Finally, I shifted into a black bird and took off in the air. Markus, too, was now a black bird, and he continued chasing me in the night sky. I dodged between building after building, trying my hardest to lose him. I sped down alley ways, but he was still on my tail feathers.
I swerved to the left and flew higher, barely missing the corner of a building. I was glad that my wrist had healed a couple of months ago.
I shifted back into my regular self, dropping onto the roof of an apartment. Here, the rooftops were close together and easy to reach.
I almost felt like a little kid again, playing tag with my little brother Joey. Only, this situation was much more dangerous than trying not to fall into a shallow river.
Oh, if only I wasn't such a klutz. I tripped on a thick black cable, probably messing up someone's television momentarily. Markus tackled me, gripping a handful of my hair tightly.
"I know you," he laughed. His gray eyes bore into me, but I refused to show my fear.
"I'm not surprised. I'm a legend," I joked meanly. "You know, tackling people isn't the way to make friends."
"I won't need friends. Once I bring you in, I'll have anything and everything I want at my fingertips. I'll be the end of the legend," He spat. His breath was horrid-- rancid, even.
"I'm not going anywhere. But, if I may, I would suggest buying a toothbrush. You're breath smells like poop," I said smugly.
His eyes narrowed, and I could tell I had made him angry. He breathed in my face before he slammed it into the cold cement. Suddenly, everything was very fuzzy and distant.

Originating from the same South London borough, Nic and Kaleb's paths crossed in the mid-90s after Nic was impressed by Kaleb's regular pirate radio show.
Influenced by garage and the early rave scene, Nic and Kaleb's blend of house made them favourites of clubbers and promoters alike. And while it all started in London town, it's been Ibiza with its energy, endless parties and a certain club named DC10 that not has only refined their approach but which has played an instrumental role in propelling them onto the international stage.
In 2007 a new party arrived on the white isle and one that Nic & Kaleb have been a fundamental part of. Set in one of the island's most unique spaces, The Zoo Project has grown into one of the most talked about parties on the island and having been residents from the outset, Nic & Kaleb have held their own amongst the who's who of the house & techno elite.
Both avid collectors of vinyl, their approach has one foot firmly in the analogue realm, with Nic choosing to keep his selection vinyl only, leaving Kaleb room to experiment with a digital set up that possesses less limits. This combination of classic and forward thinking is one that gives their sound depth and an authenticity, a trait echoed in their production work.
Launching their Kameleon project in early 2012 with good friends Simon 'Vicious Circle' Vice and Jamie Funk , Nic & Kaleb have created an outlet to express themselves away from DJ booth. The quartet's debut release won them plaudits across the board and with forthcoming releases doing damage for a select crop of DJs who have a copy, it's safe to say Nic & Kaleb's ear for quality stretches further than just behind the decks.
Having played some of the world's most revered clubs - Fabric, Space and Cocoon to name just a few - a residency at one of Ibiza's go-to-parties, and a blossoming production career, Nic & Kaleb's journey is firmly underway but only really just getting started.

"BEIJING — An international tribunal in The Hague delivered a sweeping rebuke on Tuesday of China's behavior in the South China Sea, including the construction of artificial islands, and found that its expansive claim to sovereignty over the waters had no legal basis.
The tribunal also said that Beijing had violated international law by causing "severe harm to the coral reef environment" and by failing to prevent Chinese fishermen from harvesting endangered sea turtles and other species "on a substantial scale."

Reposted from PhilanthroFiles | Original Post: July 25, 2014
By Lauren Kotkin, Exponent Philanthropy
What is the definition of "giving?" Has the term become synonymous with nothing but money – rather than giving of an individual's time, talents and skills? And what about the word "philanthropy?" Has it, too, become indistinguishable from the giving of only money? Are philanthropy and giving just about money?
~e-Volunteerism, Volume XIII, Issue 2, January 2013
Today's philanthropy is not just about giving money conclude authors Susan Ellis and Rob Jackson after tracing philanthropy's history and evolution: "Our goal should be to encourage the widest possible spectrum of giving and philanthropy, getting people to participate as they can, when they can, while helping our organizations to see any form of gift as support worthy of appreciation and cultivation."
For example, according to the Corporation for National & Community Service, one in four Americans volunteered in 2012, accumulating 7.9 billion hours of service worth $175 billion. See a state-by-state comparison of the value of volunteer time or search by volunteer job.
At Exponent Philanthropy, we too believe that philanthropy comes in non-dollar form. It's why we're excited to incorporate service as part of each National Conference.
This fall's 2014 National Conference will include two opportunities to give back:
Service Project With City Year DC
On Saturday morning, November 1, from 8:30-11:30 a.m., City Year DC invites conference participants to join its staff and corps members for hands-on activities in one of City Year's partner schools. Participants will work in small groups on projects to benefit the school and its students. This is a wonderful opportunity to hear stories and ask questions about City Year's impact and the students it serves.
City Year is an education-focused, nonprofit organization that partners with public schools to help keep students in school and on track to graduate. In communities across the United States and through two international affiliates, this innovative public-private partnership brings together teams of young AmeriCorps members who commit to a year of full-time service specifically in public schools. Corps members support students by focusing on attendance, behavior, and course performance through in-class tutoring, mentoring, and after school programs.
Trick or Treat for Our Troops
In honor of Halloween, on Friday, October 31, from 5:00-6:00 p.m., conference participants will have a unique opportunity to trick-or-treat through our exhibit hall. Any candy you do not wish to keep, in addition to magazines and toiletries you wish to add, will be donated to Treats 4 Our Troops. We'll also have a card-writing table available so you can send a note of thanks to our active service members.
Headquartered in Arlington, Virginia, Treats 4 Our Troops was founded in 2007 to collect and distribute candy, toiletries, and gently used magazines to our nation's troops. The care packages we create will be sent to troops who are currently deployed or personally delivered to service members at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland.

- Uncle Walter-Auntie Gladys's newlywed husband.
- This short was made by ArthurCox Studios for Disney's London branch, which also produced Henry Hugglemonster and the English dub of Violetta.
- When these shorts originally premiered, they gained ratings as high as 3.0 million total viewers, thanks to them usually airing before a new episode of other Disney Junior shows.
- This short is perhaps Disney Junior's most controversial program. Many parents claim that the program made their kids wait until the last minute to go and have accidents, and say that Nina never learns her lesson.
- This program is sponsored by Pull-Ups, whom features the show on their Big Kid Academy website.
- This show was dubbed into Italian as "Mi scappa la pipi", the title being a play on a famous Italian song about a child who always has to pee when visiting places with his parents and wets himself each time he says the title of the song. This dub renamed Nana to Nonna, but the other characters kept their names. In December 2014, it premiered in Korea as "니나는 급해요!" (Ninaneun geubhaeyo!), which translates to "Nina Tinkles!", where all fifteen episodes were shown, resulting in the season 2 episodes airing months before their American premiere. Although it was distributed to other countries, no other foreign Disney Junior channels besides the Italian, Korean, African, Polish, Australian, Canadian and United Kingdom channels have picked it up yet.

On Friday evening HTC and Telstra released software that enables GPS functionality on the HTC Desire smartphone.
The software update also introduces a new feature to the HTC Desire – voice search.
Voice search allows customers to use voice commands to find information on the internet more quickly. The voice search feature is integrated with the search functions on the device. It can be activated by holding down the search button (the hard key with the magnifying glass logo on the bottom of the handset) or via the main menu.
The software was made available in two forms:
Thanks for your patience while we designed and triple-tested the software.

I assume that this is a Telstra-only release (although I'm still glad that I bought my Desire from the UK) but I am curious as to how the GPS functionality has been implemented. Is this a separate HTC application or is it integrated into Google Maps? It's my understanding that Google Maps already had GPS capability integrated into it. Am I to understand that the Telstra-branded Desire does not have Google Maps at all?
Hi Matthew, I have an answer for you from the products team. "The Telstra version of HTC Desire has full access to all Android apps including Google Maps."
May 2, 2010Reply
I did a ROM upgrade yesterday and both the GPS and the Voice Search functions are now working brilliantly… Thanks to Telstra and HTC for a speedy resolution…
Now I only hope Google will soon enable their 'voice turn by turn' function on Google Maps as they have done so for US and more recently in the UK for Android phones…
The GPS functionality problem was between the hardware and firmware resulting from the rom that Telstra asked to be rammed over the top of the stock rom, it had nothing to do with the programs that use it. GPS is a hardware, not something bolted onto different apps like maps. This fix however was out when they said it would be and it works. Good enough for me
Would it be possible to Voice Dialling from Bluetooth enabled? This is a seriously required safety feature.
I never got the notification on my telstra desire. if i use Settings>About Phone>System software updates>Check now do I get charged for the data used?
Is it a complete rom update or an addon patch that uses up the small desire memory.
Hi Paul. Here's an answer to your question. As per the advice above, the 4MB update is unmetered for Telstra customers downloading it wirelessly on the Next G network.
Alternatively, you can download a new ROM. It's 150MB and will completely replace the current device ROM.
Yes, this fix appears to have corrected the GPS blunder that was made with the initial release (I hope it doesn't break something else).
I do however have another question about this phone. Why is it that Telstra charge more for this phone than their foreign counterparts, yet provide a smaller microSD card for storage than the unbranded HTC Desire? I really don't understand this concept of "pay more, get less". Does Telstra really think that 2GB of storage is enough for such an advanced phone? Is it really that costly to provide a decent amount of storage capacity?
I have to admit that this disappointed me when I opened the box, especially since I purchased it outright. They did after all provide a 16GB microSD card with the HD2.

Agree – I bypassed the dealer shops (Telstra, Optus) and went straight to a Ted's Camera's where an 8Gb stick is half the price (Sony!)
I loaded the full ROM update last night using my PC. It all went as expected. The phone restored all my settings and data. I had to reload the few extra apps I had but that was easy. The voice search works well, only problem is the Google maps and the GPS still exactly the same. Shows an error of about 30 metres and sometime almost a klm out. Has anyone else had this problem, the phone details show the new ROM details correct so it looks like a call to someone today to explain what the problem is.
I'm having the same problem as John above, voice search works but GPS doesn't.
Hi Grant, Bummer you've got issues with GPS. Anyone with HTC Desire issues, please go to http://www.htc.com/au/support.aspx Check out the support feed or contact Customer Service via email or Customer Service Enquiry: 1300-482-482 / +61280147475

Cheers, Brendan
Thanks for the update Brendan. I was actually unaware that this was a bug with the hardware interface in the firmware, I was under the (mistaken) impression that this was an issue with software. Good to see that it's fixed quickly though.
On an unrelated note, it's also good to see at least one Australian carrier finally sitting up and taking notice of the new advanced devices entering the market, although I wish you guys would give up on the exclusive deals with manufacturers! 🙁

Mmm, I didn't get the notification either and only stumbled o this site in my desparate attempts to install full speech to text SMSing and to discover why Android TTS does not appear to be enabled. I'd already downloaded the voice search .apk file and installed it. But I'm with Soren, voice dialling is a must. It seems without Android TTS enabled the functionality of the phone is greatly reduced?

Please excuse my ignorance, but after reading Nemo's post, am I to understand that the GPS function on the Desire using Google Maps does not have turn-by-turn directions?
If so, what is the point of this GPS? Does it just show your current position? Does a 3rd party GPS program need to be installed to achieve this?
If a device is advertised as having a GPS function, I would have thought it would be a GPS function that is usable.
If someone could clarify this it would be appreciated.

Julianne MacLean Quotes
Life is hard. It's cruel sometimes. It's merciless and unfair, but we all go through difficult times, one way or another. You've had more than your share of knocks lately, I'll give you that, but it doesn't mean you get to quit. No one gets to quit. You keep fighting, every day, and sooner or later, the grief fades a little. You grow stronger, find joy again, and everything gets easier. You come out of it more equipped to handle the next wave, which will come eventually. There will always be waves.
He took a moment to get over the shock, and to remind himself that this had surely been difficult for her and she was probably bracing herself for a rejection. At least he hoped she was. If she wasn't, she needed to do that straight away, because it was coming. God damn right it was coming.

Riders and workers call on MassDOT to take responsibility for investing in youth and protecting jobs
[Boston - March 4] Today, the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court (SJC) will hear the first state environmental justice case, entitled City of Brockton, et al. v. Energy Facilities Siting Board and docketed as SJC-11406. The case presents claims by affected residents that the Energy Facilities Siting Board (EFSB) improperly approved a plan to build a dirty fossil-fuel power plant in a low-income community of color without adequately taking account of the requirements of the state's Environmental Justice Policy.
[January 29, 2014] Boston, MA - Last night the Massachusetts Department of Transportation kicked off a series of six public hearings on two state plans, including the $12.4 billion draft Capital Investment Plan (CIP). After securing much needed dollars through the Transportation Investment Act passed at the State House last July, transportation officials have inexplicably left out $272 million over the next five years for critical MBTA bus maintenance and replacement.

Suffering with Carpel Tunnel and not liking the New tail rule, I chose to go into a new breed that my daughter and I could both show more easily. We chose Tibetan Terriers, a beautiful breed with such lovely temperaments. We then chose to show Havanese and Pomeranians. All are dogs live in the home and are our loving pets before anything else. All our dogs are raised with children around and cats. All dogs and puppies are given all relevant health checks. Puppies sometimes available to permanent loving homes.

Becky Woodsen
Someone came up with this brilliant idea that we write journals while we are on the road, so here we are at my first entry. I guess I should start that my name is Becky Woodsen, Bex most of the time, and I play bass in Jumping Pulse. I also sing lead vocals or backup, depending on the song and I am in charge of making sure that we manage to eat some real food once in a while.
This is hardly the first time I've been on tour, but as much as I try to play it cool around Dylan - mostly just to tease him - I love it. Every time I am in front of a new crowd I feel this amazing high. Afterwards is a bit of a different story, but it is such a rush. So many great people to meet, cool venues to play. I love the bars and pubs scene. Can't wait to light some metaphorical fires with my bandmates, so if you see Jumping Pulse in town come check us out! I promise you won't be disappointed (unless you were looking for classical music)!

Clothes - Katrina LowMature
"Wake up! Wake up!" Pet complained. "You have to get ready"
"No, I don't" I moped. Pet had kindly volunteered me to go on a clothes raid with Colligan. With just Colligan. The idea made me feel uncomfortable.
Pet kicked me hitting me in the stomach. The kid had a good kick. "Do you want to look like a pile of rags?"
"Why does it matter?" I complained. Apparently in some twisted way Pet had come to the conclusion that this was something like a date. Me? I just saw it as I was probably the last resort. I'd been terrible use at helping Riley and eventually Rae had taken over.
Rae... She seemed to like Colligan. She should be going out on this raid alone with him. Although, she couldn't wield a gun and she was seventeen. That may only be two years younger than me but she seemed fragile in a way. I sighed. Why was I thinking about all this? It wasn't my business. Pet was still pestering me trying to get me out of my ball of sheets. Eventually she gave up and stormed off irritated.
Great I'd have to deal with that later. I got up. "Pet" I sighed going after to her. "Look, its not a date. Its a raid"
She looked up at me with the puppy eyes. Damn those puppy eyes. My stomach began to churn. I couldn't itch my arm much more. It would start to bleed otherwise. Pet seemed to understand what I was thinking and sighed. "I just want you to make friends" she grumbled.
I left it at that knowing really what she wanted was to me be friends with everyone and date Colligan. She was like a sneaky little cupid trying with all her will to put a couple together. Me and Colligan though. We didn't match.
There was a knock and Pet raced off to answer it. "Is Kat ready?" I heard Colligan's voice say.
"No" said Pet's mopey voice. I shook my head and grabbed my gear heading for the door.
"Yes I am" I sighed as I reached Colligan at the door as I strapped on the gear. I shot Pet a glare warning her a little. God I felt like a scolding mother or a sister. No, we much more like sisters. The idea made me happy a little but also feel a little sick at being so close to someone. Needing to protect them.
"See you later, Pet" Colligan said while I ruffled her hair awkwardly as I passed her. Okay, not doing that again cause it made me want to itch my hand. I felt as if I had to though with the sudden idea of the sister thing. "We're doing a short run today, just finding some clothes for Gabriel and Pet"
I nodded quietly. I took the stairs gentle. My knee had been acting up and I was guessing the fact I dislocated it was finally starting to show systems. We reached the hummer and it was obvious Col would drive. I barely knew how to turn a car on let alone drive it. So I got in the shot gun seat and sat there awkwardly.
"Make a record of how many cars we pass. This thing'll need more gas soon" he said tossing me a pad of paper suddenly which hit me square in the face. Ow. Luckily it had missed my eye.
See, Pet, this is no way a date. From what I knew if it was I wouldn't be having things thrown in my face and be told to take records. This was business. Plain and Simple. Why was Pet's words getting to my though? "Sorry" Colligan apologized but I just started taking the record. We didn't have to be friendly did we really?
We reached a childrens clothes shop and the street was deserted of zombies. Huh? So they really did sleep like Pet had heard the others say. They did have to go somewhere to sleep though.... so where was that?
We headed in cautiously and I tugged out my gun. Once we got in I gestured I was going left which Colligan confirmed with a nod. I checked each isle and thought I'd gotten through free when I saw it.
A child with her hair while and chucks between her teeth. Blood stained her pink dress. I was frozen. I couldn't move. Then the girl turned and saw me. She began running at me. I lifted my gun but didn't fire.
8 meters away.
6 meters away.
4 meters- a gun went off and the kid thumped to the floor. She looked around about four years old. That other kid had been another story but this. My hands were shaking I could see. I wanted to curl up and hide away. "Stay sharp, Kat" Colligan's voice said but I couldn't look away from the kid.
My legs felt weak and I felt hot tears start to fall rapidly down my cheeks. Colligan sighed and finally I looked up. "She's.... She's so young" I just got out.
"It happens, Kat. Come on"
We finished the job in silence without talking. If Colligan spoke to me I didn't hear it and soon we were back at the apartments. Those eyes. Those little girls eyes were seared in my brain.
"Something wrong?" Rae's voice reached me. I stopped and looked at her.
"Colligan shot a kid" I said then walked off upstairs.

We walked for hours and covered almost a third of the city finally stopping at a restaurant by a canal for supper. Then we made our way back to the hotel to change before going out to see the Piazza San Marco at night without all the tourista.
