Nina Dobrev's November 2012 Glamour Feature
With season four of "The Vampire Diaries" set to premiere on October 11, Nina Dobrev scored herself a feature in the November 2012 issue of Glamour magazine.
The 23-year-old actress adorned herself in designer garb from the likes of Roland Mouret and Marc Jacobs for the hot Patric Shaw shot spread while dishing about her gorgeous locks for the mag's special hair issue!
A few highlights from Miss Dobrev''s interview are as follows. For more, be sure to pay a visit to Glamour!
On switching up her appearance for "The Vampire Diaries":
"Changing my hair helps me transform!"
On her mom:
"My mom didn't start wearing makeup or hairspray until she was, like, 40-- she's the least vain person ever. When I became an actress, she said, 'I know they need your hair for this show, but you're going to need your hair for the rest of your life, so take care of it.' Since that day, I've been very diligent. I do hair masks multiple times a week, and I don't blow -dry if if I'm not working."
On growing up in Canada:
"I was kind of a jock in school. Beauty wasn't something I spent a lot of time on. Now I ask every hair and makeup artist I work with for top. I'm in beauty school by association!"
Her best beauty tip:
"Wash your face at the end of the night! There's nothing worse than sleeping in makeup. You wake up looking like a painting that's been left out in a rainstorm.

German Oil Paintings by Artur Franke
I lived in Germany from 1999 to 2003 and while I was there I purchased two oil paintings made by Artur Franke. Both are in mint condition. The Winter Scene is named Bavaria and the other is Konigsee. I would love to find out how much they are currently worth.

Spaghetti Pomodoro
Serve this quick-cook sauce over your favorite pasta with a dusting of freshly grated Parmesan cheese.From the book "Lucinda's Rustic Italian Kitchen," by Lucinda Scala Quinn (Wiley).
- Servings: 6
Source: Mad Hungry, November 2010
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
- 2 cloves garlic, finely minced
- Pinch of red pepper flakes
- 1 28-ounce can best-quality whole tomatoes, lightly pulsed in a blender
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- Small pinch of sugar
- 1 sprig fresh basil
- 1 pound spaghetti
- Freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Bring a large pot of water to boil.
Place the olive oil and garlic in a 2-quart saucepan over medium heat. Swirl the pan to coat the garlic with oil and heat until garlic sizzles but doesn't brown, about 30 seconds. Add the red pepper flakes and stir. Add the tomatoes, salt, black pepper, and sugar and stir to combine. Bring to a boil and reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook for at least 20 minutes but no more than 30. Add the basil for last 5 minutes of cooking. Remove the basil before serving.
Meanwhile, with 10 minutes to spare before the sauce is done, generously salt the boiling water. Add the pasta and cook until tender but slightly firm. Set the timer for 2 minutes less than the package instructions specify and taste for doneness. Drain the pasta and transfer it to a serving bowl. Toss with 1/2 cup of the sauce. For each serving, spoon on a little extra sauce, grated Parmesan cheese, a drizzle of olive oil, and freshly ground black pepper on top of the pasta.

Foreigners can't pick new German names, court rules
BERLIN (Reuters) - A German court has refused to allow a family to shed their "foreign-sounding" names for new German ones they said would protect them from discrimination and aid integration into a country becoming attractive for immigrants.
The family, living in Germany under asylum after fleeing Azerbaijan, were given the opportunity to take on German versions of their names, some of which carry Islamic associations, the administrative court in Goettingen, in the state of Lower Saxony, said in a document.
But the family refused this offer, wanting instead to pick completely new German names with the goal of preventing any discrimination in finding work that could arise from an overly complicated spelling or connection to Islam.
"The fact that a surname is of foreign origin, or does not sound German, cannot alone be routinely presented as an important reason for a change of name," the court ruled.
Germany's robust labor market has outshone those of its debt-stricken European Union neighbors with unemployment figures reaching two-decade lows.
The country has become increasingly popular as a destination for immigrants from elsewhere in Europe and further afield.
The decision to deny the Azeri family a new German name could set the bar for others wanting to change their names, said Olaf Lenz, a spokesman for the court. "This is one individual case, but it could be used generally to inform other cases."
The court acknowledged that they could not rule out that the foreign names would lead to discrimination in the labor market, but said this was no justification for changing their names.
"The point of having a right to bear a name is not to counteract flaws in society," the court document said. Continued...

History of Central Banking - Lesson Demonstration (Transcript)
Activity introduction
Leah Kilfoyle, 12th grade economics teacher at Mountain Brook High School, Mountain Brook, Alabama: Every year, I get at the end of the year with seniors, trying to explain the role of the Fed and the money supply—they look at you like a deer in the headlights, like, "What are you talking about?" They can't really grasp [it].
But if you've got money in their hands, and the money was there and now it's gone, and they've got what would essentially be a piece of paper with the Treasury, with the security, they recognize [it]. We will actually calculate that. In the demonstration, we will calculate the money supply before the sale and after the sale.
The students have been studying the Great Depression and the Fed's role in that process. We'll have students actually participating in an open market operation in changing the money supply. So students will either have cash, or some type of representation for funds in a checking account. I will be actually selling Treasury bonds or bills in the forms of pencils today and trying to show that the money supply will decrease as a result of the sale of those securities. Then we'll reverse the flow and actually do a purchase of some of those securities back to inject money into the economy.
Teacher: Okay. So our classroom economy here has $35,000 in cash, $30,000 in checkable deposits, $65,000. Okay. The economy is moving along. You all participate. You buy and sell goods in the marketplace. But we know that there are times when monetary policy is going to be used, and that means changing the money supply.
So, to show that, we're going to have a sale of these amazing government securities pencils, okay? The price has been set at $5,000. This is a $5,000 asset that's available. Now, remember, you're going to buy this amazing pencil, and it's going to increase in value when it matures. So you're going to actually get more than the $5,000 principal that you put into this, okay?
So, if you've got the means—is there anyone willing and able to buy this asset? It's $5,000. Wait a minute. I see a taker. Now, Mr. Thacker, are you paying in cash or are you paying with a checking account?
Student 1: Cash.
Teacher: Okay. We have concluded our sale of these valuable treasury securities, also known as pencils. Now, there was $65,000 circulating in our economy that could be spent on goods and services, the things that you all do in your everyday lives. But now, because some of you chose to buy these assets for later, we have now removed money from the economy. We are now left with $30,000.
Now, I want you all to think about the Great Depression. Okay? Because I know we've talked about…the Fed was young, and might not have really understood how to use the tools of monetary policy the best. I want you to think about with this activity, this experiment. What difference could a change in the money supply done in the Great Depression?
Student 2: It could have helped the economy speed back up.
Teacher: How?
Student 2: More money, more cash...
Student 3: Less unemployment.
Student 2: ...in the hands of individuals.
Teacher: Okay. More money in the hands of individuals. Those individuals spend. The businesses where they spend their money take in that revenue. They've got to buy more inventory. They've got to hire more workers. Could that not necessarily prevented the Great Depression, but maybe made it what? Not a depression but a...?
Students: Recession.
Teacher: Recession. Hindsight is a good thing to have, but the importance here is for us to understand that we want to prevent anything like the Great Depression from happening again. So this is how the Federal Reserve can use its tools to try to stimulate the economy when it needs to for economic growth, or, as we did in the first instance, take that money out of circulation and slow it down.
Activity summary
Teacher: I think any time you get students involved in a lesson where they're a participant and they're more engaged in the activity, it helps some of those learners that do better with hands-on application. It helps them to really understand it more.
If we'd known then what we know now with monetary policy, perhaps the Depression would have been a recession and not such a devastating economic event in our country's history. So I want to try to tie back to that and that that's what the Fed is currently doing. They're doing it all the time to make sure that we achieve our goals of economic growth and price stability.

I have noticed that in Maya 2013, that while using viewport 2.0, that maya crashes if I have more then 3 materials using transparency from an image. I've seen this happen on my OSX Lion Desktop, with up to date specs, and the same on my PC laptop.
I don't even necessarily have to turn on depth peeling, it'll crash without that option being used.
This certainly doesn't seem to be a huge request for this to work, I'm pretty baffled that it doesn't. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Horsetail is just loaded with silicon. Silicon is the material that collagen is made from. Collagen is the skin's natural way of staying youthful, supple and sheen. In fact, many skin care experts fondly refer to collagen as the natural skin rejuvenator. So it should come as no shocker that a-listers and supermodels have sworn by horsetail extract for years upon years as a safe and natural way for them to maintain their youthful appearances.
PS: Does it sound too good to be good? I thought so. It has restricted for ppl that smoke, drink or take certain medication. Consult a botanical medicine specialist, b4 you decided to use it. Have a fabulous rest of the weekend.
Step away from the mirror. Step off of the scale....
Here is a simple exercise for gaining confidence. If you are going to look in the mirror, do it with love. What are your favorite features? Remind yourself that you are not perfect, and that is A-Okay because your (eyes, lips, hips, butt, boobs, feet etc.) are AMAZING. Don't let anyone tell you different. Every time you are having a less beautiful moment, look in the mirror. Deep into your own eyes-and repeat: "I celebrate myself and sing myself!" If you're not a Whitman fan, simply state something along the lines of "I am beautiful, I am sexy, I am powerful, I can take on the world, and I will!" Now repeat it over and over. Every time you see your reflection, tell yourself how hot you are. If you are passing by a shop window and catch a glimpse of yourself say, "Damn I look good." or "I'm so fine I'd do myself". Yeah that's right, you are THAT hot! Try it, you will laugh and giggle at yourself all day for thinking these things, and not only will it keep a smile on your face, which truly is your best feature, you will exude confidence like you haven't before, and people will notice! If anyone asks why you keep smiling, simply reply, "I'm just thinking of something beautiful."
Now, don't you feel a bit better? Be proud to be a real woman. Be proud of your imperfections and stand taller knowing that you don't need Photoshop to really be beautiful. If you believe it, so will everyone else.
Hey guys, after having a conversation with one...
Please read:
Have You Ever Felt the Need to Track Him Down?"
Where is he?? He's not where he is supposed to be. He is supposed to call you. You can't reach him.
You feel the need to track him down.
What's more, you may feel it's your doggone duty.
Maybe he's been in an accident or something - you're starting to "worry"!
(Such worries on your part can mean he's in even MORE trouble if nothing happened to him...)
Your mind may be busy with all of the possible What If's:
And that's keeping your mind OFF what you need to focus on - namely, keeping YOUR life and work going!
Never, never, never try to "Track Him Down"...
...that is, unless you work for the FBI, the IRS, Immigration, or the Publisher's Clearing House!
Never try to track him down UNLESS the "3 little words" you need to tell him are "You've been served!"
If there is ONE thing a man must hate with a passion is a woman on a mission - the mission of tracking him down.
As we all know, guys value their freedom, even if they're in a commitment. They graduated from childhood when their mother tracked them down nightly to force them to leave the making of mud pies and other pursuits. The last thing they want NOW is an echo of that!!
And girl, if you can't find him, he probably doesn't want to be found.
YES, there can be exceptions to this rule. If you know the man SO WELL and are as close to him as a family member - that you know his absence is FOR SURE a sign of "foul play" - then by all means, call his family and let them call the police and issue a missing persons report.
However... what are the chances that the man is in danger? Have you been watching a lot of those crime shows? Are you HOPING that the reason he's not calling you back is because he's "swimming with the fishes," because if it turns out that he's dumped you, then he may soon face someone with a lot less mercy, namely YOU???
Are there any exceptions here?
Is there EVER a time when you should try to track a guy down? The answer is YES. Absolutely.
There is ONE excellent reason to try and track a guy down: that's when you are IN LABOR with HIS BABY!!
Otherwise, if he's decided to go AWOL and do a disappearing act on you, then what can you do? What should you do, if anything???
You should consider yourself on vacation. Do absolutely NOTHING. Nada. Zilch. Squat. Zip.
You don't want him to EVER think you're trying to track him down. Heaven forbid.
If he doesn't want to be located, then let him GO.
Will he come back? Generally he WILL - but NOT if you send out an APB - an All Points Bulletin!
What is an All Points Bulletin? In relationship terms, it's asking his friends, mom, and co-workers where he is. It's dialing numbers and driving past places to try to see what happened to him and where he IS.
When you start driving around looking for a man, then you're crossing over into the Land of Stalking.
Don't do it. If you do, you're putting nails in the coffin that's being built for your relationship already.
If he ignored your text or phone message (hopefully you did not leave him more than one or two!), let HIM call YOU first, not the other way around.
He's far more likely to return (and he'll return much, much faster) if you let him contact you first.
When he does, do not mention his absence first. See if he brings it up. He is much more likely to mention it and give you some explanation if you act nice but neutral, and let HIM bring it up.
Yes, he will be in touch with you. Don't be surprised when he is. And if he doesn't ever get back in touch, then what difference does it make to stalk him? It's not worth it. It's not worth what can happen to your life and reputation, not to mention your self-esteem!
You don't ever need to track down a man. That makes you the "hunter" and him the "hunted." Not a good or appropriate romantic image, especially in his eyes!
A man who doesn't want to be found - doesn't want to be found. So let him have his alone time, or his guy time, and see what he's made of.
Did he stand you up? I hope not - that's a SERIOUS breach and second chances should be zero on your list of things to do for him.
But if he's just "not around" without explanation, then let him go. If you're in a REAL relationship where for over 2 months you have been exclusively seeing each other at least once every week to spend most of a day together, and you regularly call each other almost daily, THEN call him once or twice, and again about 2 days later, during what would be a normal time. That's IT. You don't need to do more.
But otherwise - if you're not exclusive; if you're new to each other; if you suspect that you're more in love than he is, and ESPECIALLY if you suspect that he's possibly conflicted or backing away - give him room, time, space - and take the exact same things for yourself in whatever way makes you happy.
Don't track him down - instead, stay on track yourself!
Know what your own track for success is: it's your life you have to take care of, and he can be part of it or not - but only by his own choice. You can't force this on him.
Any determined search on your part, and any resulting confrontation with him over where in the HECK he was - is a huge waste of your time and energy; it will drive him much further away, and you certainly deserve better for yourself.
When you have a choice between the "pedestal" and lowering yourself, choose that pedestal every time!
Don't lower yourself by tracking down any man. Let him come to you.
He will - and you can then decide how much you really wanted him to come to you after all!
-- That is the "classic" version... and let me add a dose of even more reality
What seems like "tracking him down" to you will seem like Crazed Stalking to him.
ESPECIALLY if you're not in a committed relationship, and especially if you've only been seeing him for a few weeks.
Think about it - what do you have in store for him when you *find* him? Giving him a piece of your mind?
You're going to need that "piece of your mind" and you'll also need PEACE of mind.
If you plan to explode at him, save your efforts, because it's already not worth it.
He's either in contact with you or he isn't - so let that be the message.
Take that message seriously. But don't act too hurt when you hear from him again, because that gives his actions more power than they deserve to have.
Like we talked about yesterday, the choice of a man to stop contact is a choice that has consequences, because you simply move on, due to the obvious!

The Human Rights Watch blasted Indonesia for threats and intimidation against human rights defenders inPapua and West Papua provinces. It did praise the revocation of laws which made it a crime to express hatred toward the government and also agreed ending the Truth and Reconciliation Commission opened the door for prosecution of those responsible for crimes against the people of Papua. HRW admitted, "some progress was made in addrressing the human rights crimes of the Soeharto era." Indonesia's chairman of the National Human Rights Commission(Komnas HAM), Ifdhai Kasim, said the report underlined Jakata's half-hearted human rights protection. "The fact we still talk about…the military operations in Papua and Aceh or the 1965 coup shows we have been running to a standstill."
Human Rights Watch notes many political activists in Papua and West Papua are still classified as separatists andf face arrest or criminal prosecution for opposing government actions. Foreign journalists need official permission to enter the region while international rights officials have been denied entry. HRW said fredom of religion was rated low with radical Islamic groups continuing to forcibly close minority places of worship without being halted by local authorities. There is considerable child labor and domestic and migrant workers are subject to harassment while employers are rarely punished for violating the law.

The Orchid School

www.theorchidschool.org | email@example.com
Board: CBSE
Orchid school located in Baner was started and run by the Pradnya Niketan Education Society. Over the years, the school has expanded and now offer classes from Nursery to 8th grade. The school follows the CBSE curriculum.
PNES (The society) also runs "The Orchid College of Engineering and Technology, Solapur (South)".
The FAQ section of the school's site is surprisingly candid about some issues such as teacher attrition etc. Anyway the school maintains a pretty good website and the content seems to be fairly up to date. Please check the site for further details.
School's activites & facilities - http://www.theorchidschool.org/features.asp
|Fee Structure
planning to relocate from Navi Mumbai to Baner could any one give me reviews on Orchid school and Vidya valley please . My son needs admission in second class.
The management is very insensitive and only admit high profile families. specifically the director. I would not enroll my child into this school whatsoever.
Both my children go to this school. It is one of the most expensive schools in Pune. The management is very insensitive to parents and has hiked their fees with no regard to any ethics. Their justifications for fee hikes are that 'IT professionals can pay". Try and keep away from this school if possible.
who was the trustees of the school ?
andsorry for my bad English
what bad english man!

To start with it came without a firing pin, so there was a problem there at one time.
Check the channel the pin fits into for burrs ect that may slow it down. Check the new pin also for any burrs that ride in the channel, stone them if so. I have had one that had a slight bend in it and caused mis fires, after straightening and stoning smooth it works well.
Add two #10 machine washers to the rear of the mainspring to add preload pressure which increased hammer strike.
The third thing would be to modify the pin itself, I know it's new but they come with a step in them the outer one hits the rim and causes the ignition, the inner one stops it from hitting too hard. If yours it just a few thousandths off it will cause a misfire. I will post a picture but make sure you take matierial off the lower side that does not strike the rim allowing it to strike deeper with more force.
Go through the steps to correct the problem one at a time, I can only surmise what is the problem from here, sometimes a simple stoning or the washers do wonders. Hope you do well, I shoot fed bulk in my 39A and 39AS and have no problems now, but had failure to fire or extract in both at one time in the past and have done all I advised you.

October 29, 2016
I just spent two weeks on the outer banks fishing in some fairly stiff conditions as well as fishing a tournament. I used the Aluminum 5�€™ spikes the whole time. They were great I found them to be easier to set than the old PVC and the ease of rod pick up was delight compared to the deep seated rod but in the plastic spikes.. I would recommend these spikes to any serious surf rat. Only fault I found was the shafts are a bit too light weight the extra cost of a thicker Aluminum would be well worth the money
Proseasy to set, rod pick-up.
ConsShafts are too light weight... thicker shafts would be a good idea

The Land Rover One Ten (introduced in 1983) is the predecessor to the more commonly known Defender 110. The "Defender" series models were meant to be rock solid little utes that could tackle the toughest of terrains and look exceptionally cool while doing so. These ruggedly handsome Land Rovers have amassed an army of passionate enthusiasts who keep demand and resale value shockingly high. We still have bragging rights though; the first Land Rover design was inspired by the original WWII era Jeep, made right here in the good old US of A.

Well said. My children also sit with me while I am here, laughing and learning with me. The knowledge I have aquired from this site is priceless, and like you said, it feels like a family. Thanks DC.

First, Id like to thank Bumper and the staff at DefensiveCarry.com for the outstanding job they do. The DC staff is tops.
Now for the feedback part, I just wanted to let you know why I keep coming back. Youll notice by my post count that although Ive been here a while I dont post much, but I read a lot. Ive learned much from this forum. For me its more than just guns, its like a family in some ways. People from such diverse backgrounds all show maturity and respect for each other and are willing to answer questions from people like me.
Ive read several threads from members (and ex-members) that seem to have a problem because they cant use foul language make rude comments or sexual innuendos etc. That is one of the biggest reasons I stay here. There are many other gun forums but none like DC. Ill browse some others occasionally but never have found one I like, usually if Im on a different forum its because I need to learn something specific and Im on a quest.
This is not a religious thread, although thats who I am. Im a Christian and a pastor of sorts. I no longer have a church (didnt last long anyway) but we do have an active food ministry. If youve ever been a pastor, or in any church leadership role you find that its very much like living in a fish bowl. Your every move is watched, critiqued and evaluated. Actually in some ways its a very uncomfortable place to be.
Being a pastor and taking responsibility for my safety and that of my family puts me in a somewhat precarious situation. The sheep dont always understand. Some will never understand because they dont want to, but others can be educated. As a gun nut I could send them anywhere to learn about concealed carry and the need to provide for your own safety. As a pastor the only place I feel comfortable sending them to is DefensiveCarry.com. Here, I know that there will be a sense of maturity and respect. The rules are enforced equally and fairly.
We also do some ministry in our home and I appreciate the fact that I can leave DC up and running without worrying about the content. Im also one of those members that reads DC sometimes with my grand babies on my lap. I would not do that with other firearm forums.
I honestly do appreciate the diligent manner in which this forum is maintained. It keeps me coming back and gives me a safe place to send some of my sheep.
Thank You

Thanks, guys. I can't speak for our other mods and admins, but what you have said means a great deal to me. Sometimes we get tired of telling individuals what they can't do and it is sometimes painful to actually ban someone who refuses to follow the rules, but when we get comments like these it reinforces our determination to hang in there and keep doing the job.
I joined DefensiveCarry (then CombatCarry) for the very reasons mentioned by you guys: the family atmosphere, the welcoming attitude, the lack of flaming, and the absence of spam. I was thrilled to find a place where I felt I could bring my friends, family, and children. Later I was asked to be a moderator and I was honored to be able to join in with the others who work so diligently to maintain what we have. We are not perfect and we make mistakes, but because of the kind of place this is we find it easy to correct those mistakes and apologize for them. We also appreciate it when you, the members, help us by reporting problems to us. For those who don't know about reporting - all you have to do is click on the triangle with the exclamation point on the bottom left of a post.
Thanks again for the kind words.

Holdcard, couldn't have been said better!
Thanks, Holdcard, and everyone else. I also have friends, family, kids, and grandkids that know I have this website. It's up on at least one of my monitors almost 24 hours a day, whether I am sitting in front of it or not. I have heard from many of our members, some religious, some simply "moral" people (as Jon said), all people that stayed here because of our language standards. I have heard the same from parents and grandparents that refer their kids to the forum or wives/girlfriends of members that "never thought they would enjoy a gun related forum". We have several instructors that have the site on a "reference list" for their students.
I feel strongly enough about this that if the forum ever gets to the point that we cannot enforce the current language standards, I will simply close the forum. We welcome everyone at DefensiveCarry, and regret having to remove anyone, but we will to keep the standards high.

I'm just here for the gun smut. Something about a shiny wheely or a smooth black tuperwear gun that does it for me.... JUST KIDDING.
+1 for keeping it adult clean. Never an end of interesting topics and things to ponder. Don't agree with everything...but If I did, I'd be worried.
I appreciate the job the mods and admins do, and they do a very good job of it. This forum pretty much shows how we want gun owners portrayed in public, as responsible, civilized, intelligent adults with reasonable minds.
Its always nice to come back from a field op and know that I can come here and deal with reasonable people for a while.

I echo the sentiments above.
Although I tend to swear much more than I should in person, I do feel that gratuitous swear words don't belong on any forum that is supposed to be "family friendly".
I'm not aware of any other gun forum that toes that line as well as it is done here. And I've heard many comments/complaints about other forums from people who are sensitive to this issue either personally or because they have kids roaming around their house while they are reading online.
Keep up the good work!
Thank you, Bumper - thats why I came and why I stay.
Its a shame that youth is wasted on the young.
A big AMEN to all that has been posted. I'm another one that doesn't post a lot, but am on the forum daily. The mods do a great job and don't get the kudos that they should.

text: Benedict Cumberbatch and Keira Knightley in new images from The Imitation Game The Sherlock actor plays codebreaker and computer scientist Alan Turing opposite Knightley as his close friend and one-time fiancé Joan Clarke Comments Written By Susanna Lazarus 5:12 PM, 23 June 2014 There are still five months to go until The Imitation Game hits British cinemas but the film starring Benedict Cumberbatch has already commanded record fees for US distribution rights and is generating plenty of early buzz from test screenings. Cumberbatch plays Alan Turing, the mathematician and computer scientist who had a major role in the Bletchley Park team that cracked the German Enigma code during the Second World War. But instead of focusing solely on his intelligence and skill, The Imitation Game will deal with Turing's struggle with homophobia which eventually led him to take his own life in 1954. Sherlock actor Cumberbatch – already being touted as a potential 2015 Oscars contender for his performance – is joined by Keira Knightley, who plays Turing's one-time fiancé Joan Clarke, and Mark Strong as Stewart Menzies, chief of MI6 and the British Secret Intelligence Service. All three are pictured in this new still from the film which is released in cinemas on 14 November. The trio are joined by Charles Dance, Allen Leech, Rory Kinnear and Matthew Goode in the code-breaking drama. "It's such a complex story," director Morten Tyldum told Empire magazine. "It was the gay rights element, but also how [Turing's] ideas were kept secret and how incredibly important his work was during the war, that he was never given credit for it." To see another exclusive image from the film, head to the Empire website. Like this? Share it. Facebook Twitter Google Tumblr Pinterest Blogger Reddit VKontakt Print Email

Pilgrims perform ritual Devil stoning as haj draws to a close
By Amena Bakr
MENA, Saudi Arabia (Reuters) - Hundreds of thousands of Muslim pilgrims performed the ritual stoning of the Devil on Wednesday as the annual haj season drew to a close with no significant tragedies reported by Saudi authorities who were determined to ensure a safe pilgrimage.
In June, Saudi religious authorities approved a request by the government to cut the number of pilgrims from abroad this year by a fifth and halve the number of pilgrims from inside Saudi Arabia due to expansion work on the Grand Mosque in Mecca.
As a result, 1.98 million pilgrims performed haj, one of the pillars of Islam, this year against 3.2 million last year. The numbers are expected to go back up next year.
The haj, which culminates in the three-day Muslim festival of Eid al-Adha, officially ends on Thursday.
"This haj was very easy as you can see its empty, so there's no pushing or people throwing stones at your head," said Hassan Saleh, an Egyptian pilgrim from Cairo.
"Last time I was here, you couldn't even walk in the street because of the crowds," Saleh, a driver who performed haj three years ago, told Reuters.
Although Saudi authorities did not draw a link with the issue, they have been concerned about whether the influx of people for haj could help spread the SARS-like coronavirus MERS, which has killed 51 people in the kingdom.
The pilgrimage, one of the largest religious gatherings in the world, has been prone to disasters in the past, mainly from stampedes as pilgrims rushed to complete rituals and return home. Hundreds of pilgrims died in a stampede in 2006. Continued...

- Stylist:
- Anthony
Apr 12, 2010 - I reviewed this salon about six months ago, after I had been going there about a year, but since Anthony has started cutting my son and daughter's hair, I wanted to review again. So, he's been cutting my hair for about 18 months, I guess. I found him on this website, and it was the greatest thing ever. I love my curls. He did more than dry cut my hair, he taught me to take care of my hair. Not washing it everyday, how to dry it properly, etc. Everyone I know comments on how soft and healthy my hair looks, where used to it was hard and crunchy curls with tons of product, now it's minimum product. I am no longer afraid to go swimming, because my curls will be gone! He is extremely professional and always spends time looking to see what is necessary, instead of scheduling color/cut every six weeks. Sometimes, I think "Don't you need the money? You should cut it more.", but he wants the curls to grow where they are cut at the right time. I WILL say, since lots of people have complained about the different lengths, my hair looks GREAT curly, but with this type of cut, I am unable to do it straight anymore. There are just too many layers. My son is 2.5 years old. Anthony gave him his first cut because I was worried about what to do about his curls. It was a cute cut, but I didn't think much of it, so I took him to a kid salon and a Pro-cut type salon twice and they butchered it. I was so frustrated, so I drove 45 minutes back to Arlington and over the past six months, Anthony has patiently worked with his hair until it grew, and now he has the cutest cut ever. Anthony is so patient and creative, because 1.) He is not a kid-cuts, but he obliges me. 2.)I had no idea how to cut a curly haired boy's hair, but he looked at it for a long time and made suggestions before cutting it and now we LOVE it. My husband who could care less about haircuts, LOVES it and doesn't want me to take him anywhere else. As far as straight cuts, the same goes for my daughter (4.5yo) I took her to kid cut places and they cut it straight across the bottom. She has straight hair with lots of body. Anthony cuts it in a really cute style for her age and dries it straight, to where if I had straight hair, I would want it like hers. As far as customer service, I went to this salon back in 2001 to the owner's son. I was traveling with work a lot and had to reschedule several appointments and might have missed one appointment, if that. Mostly it was rescheduling. I was "fired" as a client. It was VERY odd. I have never had that happen in a customer service industry. In fact, when I realized it was this salon when I found raving reviews about Anthony, I was apprehensive about booking. But, I am so glad I did. Susan is very friendly and I have had to reschedule a few times, due to having two kids and my own business. I pray I never get "fired" again because I am really, really happy with Anthony.

GREENSBORO, N.C. -- Injured North Carolina center John Henson will not play in Friday's game against Vermont.
Freshman forward James McAdoo will start instead.
Henson, a 6-11 junior, sprained his left (shooting) wrist after taking a hard foul during a game against Maryland in the Atlantic Coast Conference tournament. Without Henson, who averages 13.8 points, 10.1 rebounds and 2.9 blocks, UNC defeated Maryland and North Carolina State before losing to Florida State in the ACC title game.
Henson participated in Thursday's practice, but in a limited fashion.
"John did a little more -- we let him in a few more live situations," UNC coach Roy Williams said Thursday. "He did shoot left-handed, he did not block a shot left-handed. That is a concern to me. I am not convinced (Henson is ready to play)."
Henson has used ice and regular massages in an attempt to speed the healing and while he sees progress, he's not 100%.
On Thursday, Williams said that Henson would be a 'game-time decision,' and around 3 p.m. on Friday, news came that Henson would not play.
"I think Sunday would be a greater (chance of playing) just because id have two more days of recovery," Henson said Thursday. "The way it feels now I think I'll be good to go for Sunday."

I, Twain: the Graphic Novel
Last week on the show, we heard about Mark Twain's new autobiography, released (at Twain's expressed direction) a century after his death: "It has seemed to me that I could be as frank and free and unembarrassed as a love letter if I knew that what I was writing would be exposed to no eye until I was dead and unaware and indifferent." It's kind of a doorstop. Robert Hirst, one of the book's editors, told Kurt that the volume -- which is only one of three -- is about as long as they can get it and still be able to bind the thing.
If you don't love Twain enough for 743 pages, here's a treat.
Ward Sutton boils it down to just 19 frames – it's Mark Twain, the graphic novel. Sutton strips the book down to its essentials, retaining strong doses of Twain's wry sense of humor, and injecting some of his own.
Sutton's column "Drawn to Read" appears monthly in the Barnes & Noble Review. He covers a variety of books in a variety of styles: from a psychedelic take on Thomas Pynchon's Inherent Vice to The Letters of Vincent Van Gogh rendered in tongue-and-cheek brushstrokes. If only all reviews could be as clear and colorful.

All the writers studied Creative Nonfiction as part of the University of Hull's MA in Creative Writing. Grow up in Barton. Take to sea as a woman in a tough crew. Scan the Humber on suicide watch. Be fitted for a ballgown by Madame Clapham. Experience all the fun of Hull Fair. Put out fires, tread Medieval landscapes, shop at 'Boyes', hunt ghosts through the Paragon Station, chase down birds at Spurn Point… These writers bring you brilliant flavours of life in and around Hull, in their own distinctive voices. The book is published by Barbican Press and edited with an introduction by Martin Goodman, Professor of Creative Writing, University of Hull. Prof Goodman said: "This is your opportunity to discover – and hopefully promote - some truly striking new writing talent from the region. And while you're doing that, you'll start seeing Hull through new eyes." 'Writing Hull: True-life tales from 16 writers' will be launched at a joint event alongside 'Huddled Together: 50 years of Hull University Drama Department' on Thursday 28 February in Middleton Hall, Hull Campus.

Car is mechanically sound, as I take maintenance seriously for my vehicles. The car does not have to go, so please no ridiculous offers. Car is driven, so there are a few chips in the paint and dings. Some of which were present when I bought it. There is a crack in the lip due to a cone at the Subaru Challenge this year (Yes I like to autox the car, but ever abused). If someone knows how to fiberglass, the fix isn't too bad.
I will post up some shots of the engine compartment and interior shortly.

I know this post is two years old, but i recently bought this tape and tried this^. It doesn't work. It just leaves smear marks, and you can scratch the remaining toner off with your fingernail. I wish it worked; i've been having trouble with the toner transfer method.
No public wish lists :(

I lost 6 pounds this week at weigh in, which brings my total since rejoining to 12.4! This is the most I've lost in one week since I very first joined almost 3 years ago. I had a 1.2 gain last week and didn't weigh in the week before, so really, if you spread it over the three weeks, it's a 2 pound loss per week, which is probably more accurate than 6 pounds in one week. I am only 0.6 away from my 5%. My clothes are noticably looser and my face seems thinner when I look in the…Continue

Goal update: I'm doing a lot better on tracking more honestly, but I'm still struggling with water. I should go get myself a glass while I'm thinking about it. I got a good workout chasing the toddler around an indoor play place this morning. She gets "stuck" climbing on some of the things there that are not in the specified toddler zone. Part of me wishes she were more independent and then I'd get to talk more with friends, but then I'd miss her cute giggles and smiles and I wouldn't…Continue

I gained this week. :( If I'm honest after not tracking most of last week and being not too accurate with tracking this week, I should have expected it. I really need to track better. I want to get an iphone because the WW app is so much better than the blackberry app and that might help with my tracking so it will be more real-time rather than trying to remember once I sit down to track on my computer a few times per day.
Another goal to work on this week is drinking…Continue

Even though it's from October, it's certainly more recent than the previous one in which she was only 3 months old! She is almost 2 now and I still haven't lost the baby weight. I guess you really can't call it baby weight anymore...I really want to get back to my pre-baby weight before we add a sibling to the family and next time I will NOT gain 60…Continue

After updating my Twitter feed for the umpteenth time on Wednesday, I came across two trending topics #whitepeopleactivities and #blackpeopleactivities. It appears this topic began as a comedic way to express noted and age-old differences between the two races. A great idea in theory, but in execution the majority of those tweets lacked comedy and overflowed with offensive assumptions and stereotypes about both races.
If I were to accuse any of those tweeters of prejudice, they would be appalled and vehemently deny the accusation. They might rattle off the names of all their United Colors of Benetton friends, or tell me of their unwavering support of La Raza, or show pictures of themselves in hoodies in memory of Trayvon Martin. I find that hilarious.
I also find it amusing that these topics trended during a time when everyone is fighting so hard for America to be identified as "post racial" since the election and reelection of President Barack Obama. For me, #WhitePeopleActivities and #BlackPeopleActivities made one thing abundantly clear: Not only is America extremely far from being "post racial", but Americans have no clue how NOT to be prejudiced.
We look at everything with a "which one is different" mentality. Even the back page of the Highlights activity book for kids asks that question. It is just as easy to focus on the ways we are all alike, but that doesn't hold the same allure. We want to be different, but, as evidenced in the majority of tweets, we do not know how to respect differences and expose them without malicious intent.
Subconscious or not, we habitually approach those unlike us with an unhealthy fear and disdain for what often times has yet to be revealed. Just the fact that someone or something is "different" is enough to set us on edge and work very hard to come up with devices to be set apart.
The most riotous aspect of the tweets was that most were preposterous and/or simply untrue. That's the problem with stereotypes and assumptions. I have yet to see or hear of a stereotype that fully applies to every member of the group addressed in the assumption. Below are a few examples with my commentary:
#BlackPeopleActivities beating their children in public#WhitePeopleActivities children beating their parents in public
— 2Chainz (Tity Boi) (@2ChainzLyrics) March 6, 2013
False: Last week, I saw a black parent who needed to (but did not) whoop the hell out of her child for knocking down a display of potato chips because she refused to put a bag in the shopping cart. A month ago, I also saw a white woman tear into her child for running through racks and knocking down clothing.
#WhitePeopleActivities watching the Kardashians.#BlackPeopleActivities sleeping with the Kardashians
— ☞♕αιεχ ςηοω™♕☜ (@AlexSnoww) March 7, 2013
Mostly False: Kris Humphries is three-quarters white.
#blackpeopleactivities loving Michael Jackson when he was black #whitepeopleactivities loving Michael Jackson when he was white R.I.P.
— Glen Lewis (@Mega20vision) March 8, 2013
False: Ok. Really? Vitiligo or not, Michael Jackson is the greatest of all time. I'm serious. He is the GOAT! RIP!
4. #WhitePeopleActivities eating chicken salad.
#BlackPeopleActivities eating fried chicken.
False: The founder of Kentucky Fried Chicken is a white man, Harland David Sanders, who is more affectionately known as, "The Colonel". Let's also take advantage of the opportunity for cultural exchange here: You have not lived until you've had a fried chicken salad. Yum!
#WhitePeopleActivities going to Penn State#BlackPeopleActivities going to State Penitentiary
— Offensive Tweets™(@TooMessedUp) March 6, 2013
There are so many directions I could go here. None of them are appropriate. #toosoon
I unraveled the arguments of five (or more accurately 4¾) tweets here and I am sure that, given the time, I would be able to do the same of every other tweet on the subject. If I were able to quickly disprove those tweets, then why write them? They are not funny. They are false. They are not grounded. They hurt. They perpetuate years of racial discord that not even the election of a man of color to this nation's highest office can heal.
We must refocus the nature of our interactions with one another and the conversations surrounding those interactions. We have spent several generations denoting and operating in the differences between the two groups. We totally mastered that art, if you want to call it that. It is time for us to commit to and master the art of inclusion, acceptance, and tolerance for #AnyGroupsActivities.

Phase I Environmental Site Assessment: What It Is for
A Phase I Environmental Site Assessment is the first step to due diligence in a commercial real estate transaction. If properly done, it can be the best way to protect property buyers like real estate lenders and investors from assuming the environmental liabilities of previous owners or tenants.
The purpose of this assessment is to identify any environmental concerns that exist within a property prior to its purchase. The assessment process will include site reconnaissance along with research and interviews with property managers, regulatory agencies, and representatives of the public. As it's the first step in the process of environmental due diligence, actual sampling of groundwater, soil, and air is not necessarily conducted.
Under the stipulations of the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA), should environmental concerns be discovered, strict liability must be imposed on property owners in cleaning up hazardous substances at the properties that they own or operate, or have previously owned or operated. This means that under CERCLA, strict liability can be imposed on the basis of property ownership alone.
In the US, Phase 1 Environmental process establishes the standard for Good Business Practice (GBP) in conducting site assessments. Considering the dangers of assuming strict liability from the previous owner and the expensive cost of cleanup, any property buyer would do well to have the process done before finalizing the purchase of a property. In these events, getting the help of a site assessment consultant like Property Conditions Assessments will be necessary.
If a property owner is implicated, he can liberate himself from liability if he can prove that he "did not know and had no reason to know" that the property has been contaminated by a hazardous substance. This is what's commonly known as the "Innocent Land Owner Defense". Its application is achieved by performing All Appropriate Inquiries (AAI) on the environmental history of the property before it is sold.
In connection to environmental site assessment, AAI is the process of evaluating a property for any environmental contamination and identifying the potential liability for it if contamination does exist. Specific requirements for AAI and the reporting procedure can be found in the EPA Final Rule at CFR Part 312. You can read more on this rule by visiting the EPA website.
