A fury of anger among inhabitants of housing developments enveloped Paris as people protested the death of two teenagers whose moped crashed into a police car. President Sarkozy termed the outbreak an example of "urban guerrilla warfare" which witnessed young men firing shotguns at the police while others torched dozens of automobiles. An estimated 77 policemen were injured, including five who were listed in critical condition. People in the neighborhood charge police left the scene of the accident and did not provide assistance to the boys who crashed into their vehicle. Omar Sehhouli, brother of one of the dead boys, characterized the outbreak as stemming from the "failure to assist a person in danger" since he believes his brother was left to die by police who drove away. He also claimed people were not engaging in violence, but it was an "expression of rage."
This is not the first example in which young men, mainly Muslim, rioted over alleged actions by police that led to the death of boys. Mr. Sehhouli is correct on one point, the riots are an expression of rage, an anger caused by continued failure of French society to deal with issues of poverty and discrimination against those of the Muslim faith. Does the presence of discrimination validate resort to violence? Of course not, since France is a democracy and people must become politically active if they wish to redress wrongs. Perhaps, it is time for President Sarkozy to initiate programs to provide work training as well as employment, to provide decent housing conditions, and ensure that schools validate the dignity of children of the Muslim faith.

Fort Hays State University > Faculty And Staff Listings
It is important that the FHSU website demonstrate consistency among similar features. Consistency helps website visitors easily navigate, and increases their overall user experience. In order to achieve this consistency, we needed to develop a style and procedure that would be straight forward and easy to follow, while outputting a consistent look and feel for all of our faculty and staff listings. So, we've developed and released a Smart Form that will do just that for the Faculty and Staff pages. This form is easy to use, and produces that consistent look making it easier for our website users to follow. Get started using this new Smart Form by following the instructions below.
The pages will look slightly different for academic departments and administrative pages. However, the editing instructions are the same for both smart forms.
Academic Departments:
The smart form is already available for the academic departments. Administrative departments may contact the webmaster if they are interested in using a smart form for their staff listings.
During the month of June, the academic departmental smart forms were created. If you previously had a faculty and staff listing page for your department, then you should have a new Faculty and Staff page in your folder, already created based on your original page. The second column will say Smart Form: Faculty and Staff ListingIf you already have your new smart form created, skip to the Editing my Page section of this tutorial.If you do not have your page created, then create a new Faculty and Staff Listing page by following these steps:• Navigate to your folder in the CMS• At the top click on New > Smart Form > Faculty and Staff ListingYour new Faculty and staff page is created. Follow normal page procedures to give your page a title, and fill in the metadata.
The above image shows the Smart Form edit screen. Each of these areas are described in detail below.
Header Introduction: The header introduction allows you to add a heading to the page, usually an H1 (ex. Biology Faculty and Staff). Bookmarks, introductory paragraphs, or any information that may be added to a Rich Area Field may be added to the header introduction. 1. Click on "Header Introduction"2. A grey box will appear. Click the icon to open the Rich Area Field.3. Enter the information in the Rich Area Field. Click "Save".
Enter Faculty/Staff Name: Enter the information for the faculty or staff member. 1. In the box that says "Name", enter the person's name. 2. Click the "Image" icon to insert the person's image. The image will be displayed at a maximum width of 150px. Resize your photo to 150px wide before adding it to the CMS. Do not use the image properties to select a size for your image. If you set a fixed size, the responsive design will no longer function correctly. If most people on the page have images, and the person you are adding does not, use the No Photo Available image in the Library > Images folder. If none of the faculty or staff members have images, do not add the No Photo Available image.3. Click on the icon in the grey box to open the Rich Area Field. Add the person's details here. 4. To add the next person's information, click "+ Faculty-staff listing". The "Enter Faculty/Staff Name" entry boxes will appear.
Additional Content: If your contact pages are divided into multiple sections, you may use the "Additional Content" Rich Area Field to add the title to your next section. (ex. "Nursing Faculty", "Nursing Staff" or "Faculty", "Adjunct Faculty", "Staff"). If you simply want to add some content to the bottom of the page, "Additional Content" may be used for this as well.
Faculty-Staff Listing 2: If you have more than one section and are using "Additional Content" as a title for the next section, use "+ Faculty-staff listing2" to add entries to your next section. It works the same as the "+ Faculty-staff listing" above. You can currently add up to 4 sections to your page. The menu icon next to each entry allows for easy editing and rearranging of the entries. Click the icon to get the choices below.Insert Above: Inserts a "Enter Faculty/Staff Name" instance above the current entry.Insert Below: Inserts a "Enter Faculty/Staff Name" instance below the current entry.Duplicate: Creates a copy of the current entry.Move Up: Moves the current entry one position up.Move Down: Moves the current entry one position down.Remove: Deletes the current entry.
Publish the page when finished!

I have a very active 3 year old who takes her summer to focus on play time but I'm worried she has gone through the entire summer without getting any sort of education time in. Does anyone have any suggestions for fun learning exercises that are fun and will keep her stimulated but teach her something at the same time?
Hmmm well I also have a preschooler and we play with our spelling blocks from time to time to try and practice the alphabet and try to work on spelling out words that we know. The summer is hard for us too.
She's three. Playtime is education time. Seriously. It's deeply and richly educational: thinking up stories, role-playing, stacking, building, messing, tidying, balancing, talking, asking questions, creating, experimenting. Nurture the natural play that she's engaged in and she'll learn a ton, forming her mind into a brilliant thinking machine that will snap up academics when she's ready.
Mountain mama to one great kid and three great grown-ups
That is very true moominmamma! Play time is a very useful time for such young ones but I also like to watch education YouTube videos with my 3 year old. I found this amazing online preschool called CHALK Preschool that posts youtube videos teaching the days of the week through song and colorful pictures. I tried that for a bit with my 3 year old and she couldn't stop singing along. It actually really worked! Here's the link if you want to check it out! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=net9Wq142rA
have you seen http://www.littleacornlearning.com ? BEST preschool program i've ever seen.

Torpedoes and yarn chicken
I recently knit myself a top. I've knit myself sweaters before, but this was my first top. I'm extremely proud of it, especially because I added short rows to accommodate my huge tracts of land for the first time, and they came out pretty well. I also made some other modifications, including adding the lace […]

Finding comfort in crochet
It's been a rough couple of days here. On Friday, I had to make the tough decision to put our 12-year-old calico girl, Miri, to sleep. The vet discovered lymphoma that had developed and spread very quickly, and she had crashed hard. Treatment was highly unlikely to help and more likely to hurt, and just […]

Kindred Spirits
I've been bitten by the crochet bug recently, design name notwithstanding. Meanwhile, Lexie's developed a sudden interest in an item I knit her a couple years ago (not one of my own designs), which has inspired me to design something similar in crochet (it'll be my first crochet pattern). I happened to have a skein […]

Carrying on a family tradition
I recently became a 3rd-generation hooker. At least, I think I'm 3rd-generation. When I think of my mother's mother and her creativity, I usually remember her cakes–she could decorate cakes better than anything I've ever seen in a store–and her ceramics. But I do remember yarn often being around the house; I'm just not sure […]

Because I don't have enough hobbies
The DC Metro Yarn Crawl started this Saturday. I've been looking forward to it, both because I've never done a yarn crawl before (other than unofficial ones), and because of the 10 stores that are participating, I've only been to 3 of them before: fibre space in Alexandria, VA; Looped Yarn Works in DC; and […]

Calligraphic Innovations
18 May 2010 17 Jun 2010Rafia GalleryRafia Gallery, 26 Damascus Boulevard Four Seasons Hotel, DamascusByRafia Gallery, Damascus, SyriaRafia Gallery, Damascus, Syria
Four creative Arab calligraphers:
Issam Abdul Alfattah was born in 1952 in Egypt.
Mounir Alshaarani was born in Syria 1952.
Tagelsir Hassan was born in 1954 in Sudan.
Wissam Shawkat was born in Iraq in 1974.
Unlike the predominantly traditional and ancestral exhibitions that only show the improvement of the Ottoman's "Tajweed", this exhibition comes as a pleasant opportunity to present Arabic calligraphy as an innovative and sophisticated art and to show that this art form doesn't require a fancy cloak to acquire the status of modernity. Rather, it needs a conscious approach to its essence of beauty and structure, with the advance of a critical spirit with a liberal and creative imagination that transcends it into originality whose core threads are its aesthetic structure and the loom are the outlines that bring the arts together.

Ok, I've looked around to get this answer, and I think I have but I'm just making sure.
I know how to attach the rest of the armor, but how do you attach the cod piece? I know the Boba one attaches to the butt plate like the collor and back armor do, but does the Jango version attach the same way?

Mostly Wrong, is it the New Mostly Right?
I read a really good blog post today by a local photographer about
film vs digital, and the idea of how important content is. A good photo
is a good photo whether it was shot with film or digital. And of course
the opposite is also true (probably more true).
But, what do I know? I haven't shot film in ages. Although I had been
shooting film longer than some of these young photographers have been
able to walk. Shhhhhhh, don't tell anyone though. Anyway, I thought I
better shoot a roll so I could at least feel like I was part of the young
group romanced by the old ways.
The cool thing about it all or the experience is, that it's made me not think
so much about film vs digital, but more about the rules I was taught not to
break. Today it's all about breaking the rules - but the young photographers
coming out of school don't even know there were rules. (Rule number 56.
Don't shoot into the sun, it'll give you flare in your lens)
It also makes me think or compare the idea of rules vs risks. When we all
shot film we had more rules and we were less likely to take risks. Film is and
was expensive and you couldn't see the results or rewards of risk until the film
was developed and printed.
For me shooting digital allows me to take tons of risks - way more than in
the days of film. So for that reason, shooting digital has way more romance
for me than film. It may not be as seductive, but the dance is much funner
with less rules - with 'super' results. But at the end of the day, life is a journey
and I always applaud those who risk to explore, whether it's with an old
Hasselblad with film or a new digital Nikon.

Without Apple participating, the Macworld trade show's soft underbelly is exposed to predators. Here comes ces, in for the kill. Today the CEA (the guys who operate the mega-trade-show ces) announced they're doubling the size of the 2010 ces show's "iLounge Pavilion" to 25,000 square feet. The pavilion will feature iPod, iPhone and Mac applications and accessories. They're also adding a special section for iPod/iPhone apps manufacturers.
ces, which is held every January, never had much Mac stuff before, but CEA saw an opportunity when Apple pulled out of the almost-simultaneous Macworld show in San Francisco. The iLounge Pavilion started at 4,000 square feet, the association says, but it keeps expanding because of demand. Accessories retailers committed to ces include Griffin Technology, Scosche, Incase Designs, iSkin, Incipio Technologies, Jaybird Gear, MusicSkins and AAMP of America.
IDG, the managers of Macworld Expo, have moved their show a little bit later in the winter, to Feb. 9-13. Macworld still has exclusive Mac-centric conference programs and seminars, Mac-centric speakers and a Mac-community focus that ces lacks. The question is, how much blood can ces suck away before Macworld Expo becomes a lifeless husk?

Perfect auto-x wheel
The perfect auto-x wheel would be:
light, affordable, 15" but clears SVT brakes, wide sizing, right offset, right bolt pattern.
May i present to you my latest wheels,
949Racing, 6UL: 15x10", 14 lbs, $210 each, clears SVT brakes
yes, this is a 4x100 wheel, but thats where neat part happens.
a stock 6UL has 6.3" backspacing which is a touch too much, so it lends itself perfectly to a 15mm spacer changing the bolt pattern from 4x108 to 4x100. which i got on ebay HERE for $70
i should also mention that the 15x9 works too, thats what i borrowed to test fit before i bought these. However i think with the 15x8 wheel, it doest have the high backspacing, so with the spacer it would stick out almost as much as the 15x9
so, happy autocrossing!
on to the pics and the proof
my SVT used for test fitting
my helper
what's the final look like?! i love that matte look
I've heard that running with spacers isn't exactly safe. Puts more stress on the stock studs.
But all in all, they look great.
Now If I remember reading in the past, don't the Rota Slipstream 15" fit over the SVT Brakes and so do the Motegi TrackLites ...
yes, rota slips fit i think with a spacer, im not sure about the tracklites, but there is also team dynamic wheels that fit, OZ superlegeras and diamond racing wheels.
however, none of those (except the diamonds) are very wide. These wheels are uber wide.
I thought 949racing was supposed to come out with wheels with 4x108 bolt pattern? Can't wait to see them on the car.
I'm dying to buy a pair of those in 15x8 for the back end of the car. I'm stuck with a 15x7" right now
Good to know, and the flat black is badass.
I just picked up a Miata and i'm looking to get those, but in the 7.5"
can't wait to see them mounted.
nice pick up.
There are a few in my region that run with spacers, I have only seen one wheel come off!
Nice, a cheaper alternative to more expensive 3 piece custom options.
nice, i have been looking for some lightweight good looking wheels

Review with Giveaway: Circulon Cookware
Twenty-four years ago, when I married my first husband, my mother bought us a, what was then, top-of-the-line stainless steel cookware set. I remember being shocked that she would spend $200 on pots and pans, but she told me if I bought quality cookware they would be cheaper in the long run, because I wouldn't have to replace them. I didn't know if that was true or not, but I was thrilled to receive them because, until then, I had been using a cheap set my ex-husband had purchased while living on his own.
Needless to say, she was right because to this very day I still have, and use, all of the pots from that very set. I only have one lid and none of the pans but I still use those old pots. And, with the help of Bar Keepers Friend, they look as good as new.
But, while I absolutely love stainless steel pots, I've found over the years that I much prefer quality non-stick frying pans. I've just never done well with stainless steel frying pans because, for me anyway, everything seems to stick. I do keep a couple stainless steel frying pans around, though, for dishes that need to go in the oven like frittata's and such. But for everyday cooking, give me my non-stick, please.
Circulon Symmetry
The Circulon brand is synonymous with quality and the Symmetry Collection doesn't disappoint. The Circulon Symmetry 5 QT Covered Saute with Helper Handle and the Circulon Symmetry Twin Pack Skillets are must-have pieces for any kitchen.
All three pieces heat evenly and cook beautifully. I've made everything from breakfast foods to pasta dishes to fried chicken and each time the meal comes out perfectly.
These skillets are heavy and well made. The heavy-duty hard-anodized aluminum construction is twice as hard as stainless steel and the DuPont Autograph advanced 3-layer nonstick makes cleanup easy, both inside and out. And because the TOTAL Food Release System reduces surface abrasion, the Symmetry Collection is metal utensil and dishwasher safe.
The rubberized stainless steel handles are extremely comfortable and make it easy to transfer the pan to the oven. Yes, I said oven! All three skillets are oven safe to 400°F and, with an impact-bonded stainless steel base, they're compatible with all stovetops including induction.
Circulon offers the Symmetry Collection in two colors; Chocolate and Black and both colors come in an 11 or 9 piece set, as well as individual pieces. And, whether you buy Circulon Symmetry in individual pieces or a set, each piece comes with a Lifetime Customer Satisfaction Guarantee!
Enter to win your own Circulon Cookware
Because I absolutely love cooking with my Circulon Symmetry Cookware and I wanted to share the experience with you, I have teamed up with Circulon for an awesome giveaway! Rafflecopter will choose two winners for this giveaway and the first lucky winner will win the Circulon Symmetry 5 QT Covered Saute with Helper Handle (Retail Value $89.99). The second lucky winner will win the Twin Pack of Circulon Symmetry French Skillets (Retail Value $59.99)!
Entering to win couldn't be any easier. Simply enter this giveaway by using Rafflecopter below and be sure to come back daily to get additional entries by tweeting about the giveaway. You must follow A Room for Two with a View on Facebook to win.

AMHERST, Mass. - In a rematch of last season's Atlantic 10 Championship Game, it took an extra overtime period for the UMass women's lacrosse team to get past Saint Joseph's 14-13 in double overtime at McGuirk Stadium on Friday night. Jackie Lyons led all players with six goals, including the game winner. Last season, UMass defeated the Hawks 15-14 in overtime with Lyons scoring the game-winning goal posting five goals and three assists.
The win improves UMass to 8-7 overall and 5-1 in the Atlantic 10 keeping the Minutewomen in first place. Richmond also stands at 5-1 in league play, but lost earlier this season to UMass. La Salle moved up to third place at 4-2. The Minutewomen will host La Salle on Sunday at 1 PM in McGuirk Stadium to close out the A-10 regular season.
The top four teams will earn a spot in the Atlantic 10 Conference Tournament host next Friday and Sunday by Duquesne University in Pittsburgh.
The Hawks (2-13, 0-6 A-10) played a gritty first half taking a 5-4 lead into intermission. UMass jumped out to a 3-0 lead to start the game, but Saint Joseph's scored four straight over a span of nearly seven minutes to take a 4-3 lead with 14:07 remaining in the first half. Each team traded goals with Grace Dinn (4 goals, 1 assist) putting the Hawks up 5-4 with 24 seconds left in the half.
UMass started the second half inspired scoring five straight to go up 9-5 after Riley Perry notched her fourth goal of the season with 22:23 remaining. Lyons had two of her six goals in that stretch.
The Minutewomen could not keep the Hawks at bay, however, as SJU cut the lead to one midway through the second half. UMass added two goals to go up by three, 12-9 with 9:39 left, but it did not last long.
A four-goal run for Saint Joseph's sparked by Jenna Martino (3 goals, 2 assists) and Jen Peters (3 goals, 1 assist) gave the Hawks a 13-12 lead with 5:37 remaining.
Following Peters goal to give the Hawks the lead, UMass inserted freshman goalie Christina Fey relieving starter Katie Florence (9 saves).
After earning a free position attempt with just over two minutes to go, Danielle Pelletier (2 goals, 3 assists) opted not to shoot instead feeding a cutting Nina Sarcona (2 goals, assist) outside the goal crease for the game-tying score.
On the ensuing draw control, the Hawks controlled possession managing a shot by Peters in the final 22 seconds of regulation, but Fey stood tall making the save. UMass took possession at the goal with 21 seconds, calling timeout, before clearing the ball a full 100-yards allowing Jesse O'Donnell to get a shot off but Kaitlin LaBarbera kept the game tied with a save to force OT.
Neither team scored in the first six minute overtime period as Fey mad a pair of saves. Sarcona managed a shot with 23 seconds left in the OT period, but LaBarbera saved it to force a sudden-victory second OT period.
UMass won the draw control to start the second overtime period with UMass patiently looking for a good shot. After almost 90 seconds, Lyons finally came into possession, evaded several defenders as she rolled around the crease before firing the game-winner with 1:02 left on the clock.
Fey earned her first collegiate win making four saves.
Statistically, the game was nearly even as both teams managed 26 shots, had 15 draw controls and turned the ball over 18 times.
Sunday's game against La Salle will give the Minutewomen a chance to win their second-straight A-10 Regular-Season Championship and a No. 1 seed in the A-10 Tournament. It would be the first time in school history that the Minutewomen had won back-to-back regular-season league titles.

New York, N.Y. - Madison Square Garden
7:15, ESPN2 (Dan Shulman, Dick Vitale, Bob Knight, Doris Burke)
"I think we have a good chance of being a very good basketball team. I just want it to come sooner than it is coming to us." -- UNC coach Roy Williams
"Everybody is so unselfish. Everybody is going within the offense. And we have a great identity as a hard-working defensive team." -- Syracuse guard Andy Rautins
Season to Date: An exhibition loss to LeMoyne on Nov. 3 raised serious concerns, but blowout wins over Albany and Robert Morris followed and just over two weeks later that preseason loss seemed a distant memory as the Orange dismantled California in Thursday's 2K Sports Classic semifinal. Point guard Scoop Jardine led the way against Cal, posting 22 points, six rebounds, six assists and four steals.
The Zone: The zone defense is a staple of head coach Jim Boeheim's program. With size and length extending out to the perimeter, passing lanes and open shots can be tough to find - and California's small lineup built around outside shooting was the perfect matchup for Syracuse. "Our zone is designed to be effective against three-point shots," Boeheim noted postgame.
Impact Transfer: Jardine captured the MSG spotlight on Thursday, but Syracuse's most versatile - and arguably most dangerous - weapon is Wesley Johnson, who transferred in from Iowa State. An athletic and long 6-7 forward, Johnson is a tough matchup on either end of the floor. He leads the Orange in points (14.7), rebounds (7.3), steals (3.3) and blocks (3.0)
Series History: UNC leads the all-time series with Syracuse 4-2, with the last meeting being a 96-93 overtime win for No. 1 UNC over No. 3 Syracuse in Nov. 21, 1987.

Give up meat and sex for Thai festival 'ticket to heaven'
By Patpicha Tanakasempipat
(Reuters) - Thailand's annual vegetarian festival kicked off this week, a time of year when the Southeast Asian country's meat-heavy dishes get a vegetarian makeover.
Known locally as 'Teskan Gin Jay', or vegan festival, it takes place over ten days and began over 150 years ago on the tourist island of Phuket, some 840 km (520 miles) south of Bangkok.
Thailand is home to the largest overseas Chinese community in the world and the festival is a time when Thai-Chinese, often third or fourth generation Chinese who grew up in Thailand, observe ten days of abstinence.
Eating meat, drinking alcohol and having sex are thought to be vices and pollutants of the body and mind to be cut out entirely by the truly devoted.
"Eating vegetarian food during the festival purifies your mind and washes away your sins," said Lamyu Manolai, 59, a food vendor. "It's like going to a temple."
In Bangkok's Chinatown, yellow flags baring the words "purified" and "merit" flutter along Yaowarat Road, the area's main thoroughfare, a smorgasbord of vegan and vegetarian food stalls.
The food sold here is often made from meat substitutes including soy proteins made to look like the real thing, to varying degrees of success.
Fish maw soup, the neighborhood's signature dish, made with bamboo mushrooms, looks convincingly like its meat-based original. Continued...

I'm all for slowing down the foreclosure mess to make sure that banks are following property rights law to the letter (e.g. foreclosing on homeowners without a mortgage), but as with anything in life, the longer you delay or ignore a problem, the more expensive and more painful it will eventually be.
It [foreclosure numbers] depends on how quickly the banks want to process everything that's been delayed. But we will inevitably see a huge run up in foreclosure actions in Q1 as the lenders and servicers need to catch up.
This data adds further support to the double dip in real estate thesis, even though a flawed lagging indicator like the Case Shiller Index confirms it.
But this would also suggest that even though the foreclosure process is slowed/stalled (via the robosigning debacle), that we might begin to see the light at the end of the tunnel in 2011 once foreclosures ramp up and home prices continue to accelerate along the downward slope of the real estate bubble.
At this rate, and at these falling prices, looks like I'll be waiting a few more months to get back into the real estate investing game. No reason to buy a short sale or foreclosure now, when 3 to 12 months from now the selection will be even greater and prices will likely be lower.
What do you think?
I hope that we will have a tame double dip in real estate. Markets usually overshoot on the downside when they overshoot on the upside like real estate did until a couple years ago.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- The Intercollegiate Tennis Association announced its regional award winners this afternoon, and three different Ohio Valley region awards went to members of the Tennessee Women's tennis team.
Senior Caitlin Whoriskey took home Senior Player of the Year honors, while junior Maria Sorbello was named Regional Player to Watch.
Co-head coaches Mike Patrick and Sonia Hahn-Patrick were also named region Co-Head Coaches of the Year.
The honors continue to pile up for Whoriskey, who was selected to the All-SEC First Team two weeks ago. This season, she has posted a 29-11 record playing exclusively from the No. 1 singles position. She received bids to both the NCAA Singles and Doubles Championships. In doubles play, she is 33-4, pairing with both Maria Sorbello (14-3) and Natalie Pluskota (19-1).
Regional Player to Watch--which was awarded to Maria Sorbello--goes to "a player who has an outstanding season and is expected to perform at a high level the rest of his or her career." It also takes into account a player's sportsmanship and character.
Sorbello has enjoyed a career season in 2009-10, posting a record of 22-14 from the second singles position. She has six victories against nationally ranked opponents.
For Mike Patrick and Sonia Hahn-Patrick, this season has been anything but easy. Tennessee has suffered numerous injuries throughout the year, but managed to stay the course and posted a runner-up finish at the 2010 SEC Tournament.
Each regional award winner is now entered into the ITA National Awards competition in their respective category. Those awards will be announced on May 25.
Tennessee will be in action Friday at 1 p.m. against Winthrop in an NCAA Tournament First Round matchup at the Barksdale Varsity Tennis Courts in Knoxville, Tenn. The winner of that contest will face the winner of Friday morning's tilt between Indiana and Vanderbilt at 3 p.m. Saturday. On the line will be the right to advance to the NCAA Tennis Championships in Athens, Ga.
A live blog of Friday's Tennessee match will be available at UTLadyVols.com. Live scoring for both matches will also be available at the Tournament Central Page, located here.

The floral trend has taken centre stage on the catwalk this spring/summer, closely followed by colour blocking and the polka dot. 'Floral' is reinvented year on year, and this summer we have seen the ditsy flower , the abstract splashy flower, and the classic vintage floral as inspired by Dolce and Gabbana's collection. There has been a sea of flowers everywhere you look on the high street and they will be with us for some time yet. Autumn/Winter will see new big, bold and brave blooms paraded.If you are not quite ready to say hello to the hollyhocks and welcome the wildflowers to your wardrobe, how about introducing something flamboyant and flowery to your lingerie drawer? New to Bravissimo is the Lyla bra by Freya in amethyst, and really is a beautiful bra. With the cups being mostly sheer, it creates a very sexy look, and the amethyst colour is contrasted well with the aqua embroidery. The style is an underwired balconette, the balconette is lower at the front, so this is a perfect choice for a lower neckline. There are matching briefs and shorts available to buy with this bra, they come in amethyst with a cute contrasting sheer and embroidery frill. Also new to Bravissimo is the gorgeous Poppy bra by Cleo. This is an abstract print in cream and orange, it's a half cup shape that is lightly padded and has a pretty orange lace trim. This bra is available as a set, with a matching thong or briefs. If you like keeping up with the latest trends, this is a very stylish set. It also provides great support and wonderful shape.
Bring the garden into your bedroom this autumn and invest in some beautiful floral printed lingerie by Bravissimo.

Location: Crop Germplasm Research2008 Annual Report
1a. Objectives (from AD-416)
Objective 1: Refine the sorghum genome map to accelerate map-based gene discovery and comparative analyses of genes and gene networks in the Poaceae family. Completion of a genome map of sorghum will permit direct cross-referencing of the genomes of sorghum, rice, and maize, thereby permitting a unified Poaceae genome map to be assembled. This map and associated technology platforms will enhance gene discovery and expedite germplasm development via marker-assisted selection of key agronomic traits. Objective 2: Utilize the sorghum genome map and genetic resources to clone key genes, including those controlling pollen fertility and drought tolerance. As the products of Objective 1 are developed and released, positional cloning of genes will be simplified when complemented with high-quality linkage analyses. Sub-objective 2.A: Elucidate the genetic basis of drought tolerance by positional cloning of a major stay-green QTL in sorghum. Utilizing genetic stocks that are isogenic for a given stay-green QTL, high resolution maps have been constructed and continued refinement of each QTL will be achieved. The further refinement of the QTL, coupled with detailed genetic, physiological, and molecular analyses of gene candidates will ultimately permit the gene(s) conditioning the stay-green phenotype to be cloned. Sub-objective 2.B: Elucidate the genetic basis of pollen fertility restoration in sorghum by positional cloning of the Rf2 fertility gene. Armed with fine mapping populations, genomic technology platforms for sorghum, and having cloned the first major sorghum fertility gene, positional cloning of Rf2 fertility restoration gene is achievable. Objective 3: Map genome regions controlling photoperiodism and plant height in sorghum and identify robust molecular markers linked to these traits. Completion of the genome map flanking these trait loci will expedite high-resolution mapping by revealing sequences representing potential markers for additional fine mapping, while also revealing candidate genes conditioning photoperiodic-insensitivity and reduced plant height. Objective 4: Conduct proof-of-concept study, utilizing molecular markers, to expedite the conversion of tropical sorghum to temperate adaptation. We will utilize the genome map and molecular markers discovered under Objective 3 to evaluate the introgression of recessive alleles conditioning photoperiod insensitivity, plus reduced plant height, into tropical germplasm. This molecular evaluation will supplant the additional selfing generations and associated phenotypic evaluation normally required to track the introgression of recessive alleles into exotic germplasm during their conversion to photoperiod-insensitive, short-stature cultivars suitable for production in the U.S.
1b. Approach (from AD-416)
The long-term goal of this project is to develop and utilize appropriate approaches and techniques in genomics and biotechnology to discover genes that control key agronomic traits, and to utilize these to augment breeding strategies that will facilitate the development of improved sorghum cultivars. At present, positional cloning in sorghum is a daunting task, but the further refinement of a sequenced-based sorghum genome map will greatly simplify gene discovery. We have targeted several agronomically critical genes for positional cloning, including the stay-green gene(s) conditioning sorghum's exceptional tolerance to post-anthesis drought. In ongoing collaboration with scientists at Texas A&M University and the Department of Primary Industries and Fisheries, Queensland, Australia, an integrated approach that includes the plant disciplines of physiology, breeding, molecular genetics, and genomics is being employed to clone stay-green genes. This information, and markers linked to these genes, will be exploited to introgress post-anthesis drought tolerance into elite sorghum cultivars. Additionally, the molecular tools developed under Objective 1 and Sub-objective 2.A will facilitate our ongoing efforts to clone pollen fertility restoration genes. Work with our Queensland collaborator will target cloning of Rf2 because of its importance in hybrid seed production, and the need for informative markers tightly linked to Rf2 for germplasm evaluation. We also seek to map, at high resolution, the height and photoperiod-insensitive genes required to convert tropical sorghums to photoperiod-insensitive, short-stature cultivars suitable for production in the U.S. Objectives 1-3 are complementary, and the knowledge gained under one objective will facilitate success in all. Continued map resolution of photoperiodic and height trait loci obtained under Objective 3 will provide the foundation for identification of additional robust molecular markers and potential candidate genes, which will positively impact achievement of Objective 4.
3. Progress Report
This is a new project that replaced 6202-21000-022-00D and which is continuing and expanding the work of the precursor project. During FY 2008, progress was made towards integrating whole genome sorghum sequences into the refined sorghum genome map. Work was continued on cloning genes that condition pollen fertility restoration, photoperiodism, and plant height. The information obtained and methodologies developed will be critical for the successful exploitation of a wealth of previously unusable tropical sorghum germplasm in development of higher-producing sorghum hybrids for U.S. farmers.

Other fruits are often used in relishes and sauces, but I decided to make one with my favorites - strawberries and blueberries. I get rave reviews when I serve this fruity, distinctive salsa over meat. It's also delicious atop a spinach or lettuce salad. -Diane Hixon, Niceville, Florida

As the Obama campaign targets Mitt Romney's record at Bain Capital, political ads and the commentators who follow them have zeroed in once again on the issue of outsourcing. Senate Democrats rallied to the cause proposing the "Bring Jobs Home Act" on July 9, only to see it die by filibuster last week. More >(Need Boston Globesubscription)

Serves 2
This variation on pesto is so delightful it's amazing that it's not more common. The roasted tomato flavor is superbly highlighted by the sweet aromatic basil—but a very ripe regular tomato will work well too. Don't limit this pesto to just pasta; try it on pizzas and roasted potatoes, in an omelette, or over grilled vegetables. You can make an equally delicious variation by using cilantro instead of basil. From Shareholder (adapted from the Seed Savers Calendar, 1998).
2 pre-roasted tomatoes or 1 large fresh tomato
2-3 cloves garlic, peeled, halved
3 tablespoons pine nuts
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 cup fresh whole basil leaves
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons butter, softened
freshly ground black pepper
1. Combine the tomatoes, garlic, pine nuts, and oil in a blender and process until just combined. Add a handful of basil and process again briefly; continue adding the basil in small amounts until all is combined.
2. Stir in the Parmesan cheese and butter and season with salt and pepper to taste.

John's Got a Lot of New Tricks up His Sleeve
John Mayer went low-profile in his black hoodie leaving Katsuya last night, but we can't help but notice some new ink peeking out on his left arm. As it turns out, John went a little crazy at the tattoo parlor and inked up his whole arm. We knew that he had an affinity for tattoos, but John must really be feeling like a rock star these days. Wonder if his new sleeve will have any effect on the clean-cut nice girls he seems to like so much.

An evening of good food, company and wonderful silent auction items will also support a good cause. Blake Hulliberger, 7, has been battling childhood leukemia for the past three years. His learning ability has also been affected by a stroke he suffered early on in his fight. On Saturday, March 26, the public is invited to enjoy an evening of good food, entertainment and a silent auction at Greenville Community Church, 6596 S. Vining Street in Greenville. The event is from 5 to 8 p.m. with auction winners to be announced after 8 p.m.
Because Blake has missed lots of school during his treatment, and because of the stroke, he attends a special educational program called Orton Gillingham. It has been very effective and his family hopes he can continue. Unfortunately the program costs $2,000 for every 50 sessions. Blake's family hopes fundraisers will help them continue his education in the program. A fund for Blake has also been established at Fifth Third Bank for anyone who would like to contribute. The event fee is donation only.

Here's hoping this doesn't end up in the idiot's corner
I'm relatively new to the whole linux/security scene, but I'm learning.
Here's my problem. I've got a stolen laptop on my campus that's still functioning. I know its MAC and I know the general vicinity of where it's at. I'm using Kismet to see its signal strength and I've even made a "dish" to help my PCMCIA card be more directional. In other words, I'm REALLY close to finding where this laptop is.
Unfortunately, kismet will only report back signal strength when there's real data coming FROM the client and it's often just sitting there. It's a windows box with its firewall turned on so it won't respond to ping, etc.
Is there anyway to make the client send out data packets short of deauthing it?
A Backtrack app and/or windows app would acceptable.
Thanks in advance,
Not my laptop. And I'm working with the police. Our campus police isn't exactly tech savvy.
I don't really want to deauth it as there are lots of AP's in that area, don't want it bouncing around from AP to AP as Kismet is AP specific when your looking at client info. Also, I really don't want it to be noticeable if the user gets back on.
this story really sounds a bit far fetched.
why dont you get a search warrant and search the building. apparently you are spending massive amounts of time on one laptop theft anyway..
Geez. What do I have to do, give a DNA sample?
Ok, full story, I work for IT at a university. There's a stolen laptop that the thief is still using (moron) in a 5 story dorm building. I've been able to narrow it down to a wing and three floors due to relative signal strength from the AP's, but can't get any closer.
By using Kismet and an Atheros card, I can get relative Signal strength from a client to my tablet PC, BUT the client has to be "chatty". And evidentially ARP requests isn't enough for it to show up. If I can force the client to send out some real information, then I can easily get a warrant for a particular room (can't do it for the ENTIRE building) and then I've got 'em. I've been able to find pinging IPAQ in my own building that someone hid for me. So I know this will work. But an IPAQ and a windows firewall are two totally different animals.
Is that enough info to stop the naysayers? Sheesh. I'm not trying to steal information or even hack this guy (although I'm getting to the point of trying that), I'm just trying to get the computer to talk to me a bit so Kismet will give me a reading.
No we actually don't need a warrant, but in that situation we can't press criminal charges, however we just don't have the manpower in UPD to go room to room and search. This is a pretty good sized dorm and our antennas are pretty powerful on our AP's so while I have a general idea on where he is, still think needle in haystack.
I've been in networking for a while, but security tools is all something rather new to me. Heck, I've worked with Linux more in the last week than I have in the last year. My main problem is that I just can't figure out how to make it reply to something, and to be honest I'm not sure where to start even if there were ports open.
It doesn't respond to pings, nbtstats, traces, ftp, remote desktop. It doesn't send anything back at all. I can get it to respond to ARPs a lot but that doesn't seem to be enough information for Kismet to pick up.
My IPAQ sang like a canary when I hit it with a port scanner, but this doesn't do that either. Any ideas for a newb?
PS Yes this is a lot of work for a laptop, but it's been slow here recently and I'd REALLY like to catch this guy. Besides if it was your laptop, wouldn't you want someone looking for it if they knew it was still around??

South Carolina's fiscal conservative republican Governor Nikki Haley criticized Washington lawmakers today during a blistering press conference for the Republican Governors Association.
"I could not be more frustrated than I am right now. How many more times are the governors going to have to pick up the mess of Washington DC? How many more times are we going to have to deal with these issues over and over again because of the finger pointing and the blame game that keeps on happening in Washington? What I will tell you is – we heard today a whole lot of 'no.' And that seems to be the new word in DC is 'no' from everybody."
Adding fuel to the fire of the impending $85 billion dollar across the board spending cuts which are slated to begin by weeks end if Congress and the White House don't work out a deficit reduction plan, Haley's words echoed the sentiments of many Americans both Republican as well as Democrat and insinuated that the president and members of Congress aren't working hard enough and putting forth enough effort:
"Something's wrong. My kids could go and find $83 billion out of a $4 trillion budget. This is not rocket science. What this is is an inability to want to get to work," she said.
In a direct jab at the president's recent 10 days vacay in Florida hitting the tee's with Tiger Woods the first term governor said "no one should be going home. No one should be playing golf. No one should be taking vacations. What they need to do is do what these governors do everyday. We stay until we get it done."
She further added that the federal government has grown too big and had too large of a role in peoples' lives.
"Has there ever been more of a time where government was more intrusive than it is today? And to the point that it is really psychotic. There is something very wrong in this town."
Haley and other state executives are in town for the National Governors Association annual winter meeting. The select group heard from President Barack Obama Monday morning at the White House, where he urged governors to put pressure on Congress to avert the upcoming fiscal slashing.

Saints is a friendly, casual gay bar, with a welcoming, open atmosphere (dykes like it, too) and a small but amusing dance space. Saints is run by British owners who excel at cocktails. The club also doubles as an information hub for the community in Prague (the website provides a lot of gay accommodation and entertainment listings).
Area Prague
Transport Metro Náměstí Míru/tram 4, 10, 16, 22, 51, 57.
Telephone 222 250 326
Open 5pm-2am Fri; 5pm-4am Sat; 5pm-1am Sun.
Admission free.
I don't know if someone from Timeout has visited the place, it's nothing like you said. It's a very small odd bar(?), it looks more like a living room in a flat, and the same size. What dance floor? The bar it's difficult to rich because it's not central, so when you get there you are double disappointed.
Please note that the opening hours for Saints are now 7pm to 4am daily

J. Kelley Hall
J. Kelley Hall enters his second season at Cincinnati after leading the undermanned Bearcats to a 12-16 record in his first season at the helm. Hall's up-tempo style led to wins against crosstown rival Xavier and BIG EAST foes Georgetown, USF, and Providence. Hall earned his 300th career head-coaching victory in a 69-49 win against Georgetown on Jan. 8.
Hall became just the seventh head coach of the University of Cincinnati women's basketball program when he was introduced as the Bearcats' new mentor on April 4, 2007. The 49-year-old Hall is considered one of the top recruiters in the nation and brings with him a winning system which has been developed in some of the most competitive regions of America in women's college basketball. Hall's national recruiting base was developed during coaching stops at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, as head coach (2002-07), at Louisville, as associate head coach/recruiting coordinator (2000-02), and assistant coach/recruiting coordinator positions at Auburn (1996-2000), Cal State Fullerton (1994-96), Mississippi State (1992-94), the University of Alabama (1983-84) and Troy (1982-83).
Hall's career coaching highlights include guiding his teams to six NCAA Tournaments, one WNIT appearance, while coaching six all-Americans, 10 all-Southeastern Conference student-athletes, and one NCAA scoring champion. Hall's career record as a head coach stands at 302-134, a winning percentage of .692.
Hall comes to the Bearcats from the University of Louisiana-Lafayette where he coached five seasons, transforming the team from a struggling program to a power in the Sun Belt Conference. Hall took over at UL-Lafayette in 2002-03 and inherited a program with a 300+ RPI rating and built Louisiana's Ragin' Cajuns into a Top 60 RPI program in 2006-07. From 1990 to 2000, the Cajuns averaged four wins a season. In Hall's first two seasons the UL program was 21-34 but posted a mark of 65-28 in his final three seasons.
Hall's 2006-07 squad, which was picked to finish third in the Sun Belt Conference's West Division, finished 25-9, winning the regular season Sun Belt West Division title, and accepted a rare mid-major at-large berth to the NCAA Women's Basketball Tournament. It was the first-ever NCAA Tournament invitation in UL-Lafayette history. The 25 victories set a new school record for single-season wins, eclipsing the mark of 22 set by the 2004-05 team.
One of Hall's most impressive statistics as a coach has nothing to do with results on the court, but in the classroom. In five years, his recruited student-athletes at UL-Lafayette recorded a 100-percent graduation rate.
The 2005 Sun Belt Conference Coach of the Year, Hall is the all-time winningest coach in University of Louisiana at Lafayette women's basketball history. During his five seasons, Hall's Cajuns set eight individual and 12 team records, including most victories in a season (25, 2006-07), most home wins in a season (13, 2004-05), most consecutive home wins in a season (13, 2004-05), and most consecutive home wins, notching 22 consecutive wins from February 5, 2004 through January 5, 2006.
Under Hall's direction, the Ragin' Cajuns finished either first or second in their Sun Belt West Division in his last four seasons, including Sun Belt West Division titles in 2005 and 2007, and second-place finishes during the 2004 and 2006 seasons. Regarded as one of the finest defensive coaches in the women's college game, Hall is known for his aggressive match-up zone and tenacious presses and half court traps. Over the Cajuns' last 147 games, UL-Lafayette held the opposition to 58.7 ppg on 36.3 percent shooting.
During the 2006-07, season Louisiana's Ragin' Cajuns finished the season ranked eighth nationally in rebound margin (+9.3), 18th in field goal percentage defense (35.7), and 40th in win-loss percentage (.735).
During his five seasons Hall directed three 1,000-point scorers and coached one Sun Belt Conference Player of the Year, three Sun Belt Conference Newcomers of the Year, and three first-team all-Sun Belt performers.
Over his quarter century of coaching, Hall has been a proven winner, posting 19 winning seasons -- 13 of which included 20-plus victories.
Prior to his stint at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, Hall spent two years as an associate head coach at BIG EAST foe University of Louisville. He served as the Cardinals' recruiting coordinator and a defensive specialist coach, as well as handling on-floor coaching duties and working with the post players. During his stint at U of L, Hall was key in signing the No. 2-ranked junior college player in the country, Amande Wolfe. He is also credited with organizing the first Lady Cardinals Elite Basketball Camp.
Prior to his success at Louisville, he spent four seasons as the recruiting coordinator at Auburn, bringing in some of the top players in the country, and producing nationally-ranked classes in each of his four seasons. Hall's first recruiting class ranked fourth in the nation by Blue Chip Magazine. The class included All-Americans Shana Askew, Tasha Hamilton and Conswella Sparrow. His second class was ranked fifth overall in the country and each were named an All-American by USA Today. His third and fourth classes also received national acclaim, including Top 10 by USA Today, Blue Star and All-Star recruiting services. His fourth recruiting class included Carol Smith, the Rawlings NJCAA National Player of the Year in 2000.
Hall spent two seasons (1994-96) at California State University Fullerton as an assistant and recruiting coordinator. While at Cal State Fullerton, he coached Koko Lahanas who averaged 26.8 ppg, leading the nation in scoring in 1994-95. He also served in the capacity of recruiting coordinator at Mississippi State from 1992-94.
Hall became head coach for the first time when he took over the reigns at Gordon Junior College in 1984-85. He guided the team to a 19-7 record and a third-place finish in the Georgia Junior College Athletic Association (GJCAA).
The Selma, Ala. native honed his X's and O's as a head coach in the highly competitive junior college ranks at Truett-McConnell Junior College from 1985-92. Hall averaged 26 wins per year during a seven-year stint as the head coach, capturing three state championships and four second-place finishes. In 1991 and 1992, he was named the GJCAA Coach of the Year and mentored five NJCAA All-Americans. Hall also got valuable experience as director of athletics, assistant dean of students, and was the chairman of the health and physical education department.
He began his coaching career at his alma mater, Troy (Ala.) University, serving as an assistant for one season in 1982. Following the 1982 campaign, Hall moved on to Tuscaloosa, Ala. where he was a volunteer assistant at the University of Alabama during the 1983-84 season.
Hall and his wife Meredith have two daughters, Brynley Michele and Jordyn Kelley, and one son, Aubrey Oneal. Meredith (formerly Sisson) Hall has served on her husband's staff, including four seasons as a volunteer assistant coach at UL-Lafayette, and the 2006-07 season as co-head coach of the Ragin' Cajuns. The former Virginia Commonwealth standout was a two-time team captain for the Rams, and later played briefly in the WNBA with the Washington Mystics.
Hall received his bachelor's degree in secondary education from Troy University in 1982.

In this financial world crisis saving money is the smartest way for anyone of us to do. As I keep watching on the news it says that the economy is recovering but still not really fully recovered. There are still thousands or more of jobless people hunting for jobs anywhere in the world. Still life is very tough.
Christmas is just around the corner. I know you smell it by now. Possibly many people are busy shopping here and there for Christmas presents. It is time for giving and sharing, but how about those who have nothing to give? Well, for me it is not really a compulsory to give. Would you agree with me? If you can afford to buy something and give it away then go ahead the choice is yours. Just don't expect something in return because not all are born to be lucky to return the favor.
