You remember the promotional campaign for this film featured here?
There is a buzz around the film as it is the winner of the 55th National Awards for a film in the Social Issues category.
Release Date: 27th August 2010
Director: Sushil Rajpal
Cast: Raj Singh Chaudhary, Swati Sen, Vinay Pathak, Akhilendra Mishra, Jaya Bhattacharya
Most people who have worked on the film have graduated from or are students of the Film & Television Institute of India (FTII). That is quite evident.
The subject is a sensitive one: groom kidnapping in a remote state of India and the various lives the incident affects.
The film picks up pace in the opening sequence itself as one watches the lead actor (Raj Singh Chaudhary) travel on a train. Through flashbacks, the audience is made aware of the existence of a pregnant girlfriend (Himanshi). To inform the parents (Vinay Pathak) of their decision to marry, given the circumstance, the boy is shown to return home. After much discussion and heartbreak, as the boy is returning to his girlfriend, he is kidnapped. A few days of torture later, he is informed that he will be marrying the daughter of the kidnapper (Swati Sen). A tumultuous marriage, attempted escapes, a coming of age of the girl made to forcefully marry and a confrontation with parents and a pregnant girlfriend form the rest of the plot.
Such practices (marriage by kidnap, marriage by force) are prevalent in states like Bihar. Hence, it doesn't come as a surprise. But a large part of the audience is unaware of the goings-on of other states of the country. To them it may seem bizarre. It is a provoking subject to deal with but it has been handled with subtlety and the right amount of sensitivity.
To watch it from the point of view of a victimized man is a refreshing change. Perhaps, the audience's numbness and awareness to the plight of a woman has increased. The relationships portrayed in the film, be that of father-son (Vinay Pathak-Raj Singh Chaudhury) or father-daughter (Swati Sen-Akhilendra Mishra) or sisters-in-law (Swati Sen-Jaya Bhattacharya) are poignant and beautifully drawn.
The accuracy with which shots have been constructed deserve special mention. Again, the production design is flawless. The dialogues (Amitabh Verma), appropriately have a local flavour and are hard-hitting when required. Most importantly, great performances have been extracted from all the actors.
The only problem with such a film is that it acquires a serious tone. The audience has not been seen to provide a warm reception to such films. While the critics may love it, will the audience give it a chance? How does one market such a film to rake in the numbers?

Brad Paisley titles new album 'Moonshine In The Trunk'
Listen to Brad Paisley on iHeartRadio
Brad Paisley has finally chosen a title for his new album -- Moonshine In The Trunk.
In a new interview with Billboard, the country star says he was unable to come up with anything for weeks, joking about the ten blank-white tour buses getting ready to hit the road.
He's also revealing more about what fans can expect from his tenth studio album that's set to drop on August 26th. Brad says he took a less experimental approach to the new album, stepping away his work on last year's Wheelhouse.
But that doesn't mean he's not taking risks. Brad says he played around with electronic music technology while producing Moonshine, teasing fans that "a banjo through stutter edit" is "the coolest thing you ever heard." Brad's new EDM-tinged sound can be found on his latest single "River Bank."

SOUTH EL MONTE - A sheriff's task force Wednesday arrested eight employees of a plastics recycling business after recovering more than $115,000 worth of stolen soft drink pallets.
Those arrested worked at Broadway Plastics, located in the 2000 block of Lee Avenue. The evening raid occurred at the South El Monte recycling business and at a Lynwood home in the 3500 block of Virginia Street, Los Angeles County sheriff's officials said in a written statement.
Arrested were: Carlos Torres, 41, of Lynwood, who is accused of masterminding the operation; Torres' wife, Cecilia Torres, 38, of Lynwood; their daughter, Carmen Torres, 18, of Lynwood; their son-in-law Joshua Barragan, 19, of Lynwood; son-in-law Alex Merino, 27, of Pico Rivera; Broadway Plastics owner Jason Wang, 46, of Temple City; Jesus Martinez, 23, of Compton; and Jose Gomez, 42, of El Monte, Los Angeles County sheriff's Sgt. Nabeel Mitry said.
All of the suspects worked at the recycling business, Mitry said. Five of those arrested are family members, he added.
Officials described them as five family members, as well as two employees and the owner of the South El Monte recycling business. They were booked on suspicion of receiving stolen property.
The allegedly stolen plastics include pallets and crates used to transport products such as Dr. Pepper and Snapple, authorities said.
At the South El Monte location, "Stolen trademarked plastic products were being stowed, ground and primed to be sold," according to the sheriff's statement. "Some of the products were still intact, while some had already been ground."
The investigation and arrests were the result of an investigation by the sheriff's Industrial Plastic Theft Task Force, based out of the sheriff's Industry Station.
According to Los Angeles County booking records, the eight suspects were being held in lieu of $20,000 bail each pending their scheduled arraignment Friday in El Monte Superior Court.

"Evolution's lonely battle in a Georgia classroom," published in the June 28, 2006, issue of The New York Times, discusses the travails of Pat New, a veteran middle school teacher in Dahlonega, Georgia, "who, a year ago, quietly stood up for her right to teach evolution in this rural northern Georgia community, and prevailed." New was pressured by students, parents, teachers, and administrators to downplay her presentation of evolution in her classes, despite the fact that it pervad
Evolution continues to be a burning issue as the August 1, 2006, primary election in Kansas approaches. In November 2005, the state board of education voted 6-4 to adopt a set of state science standards in which the scientific standing of evolution is systematically impugned.
Evolution education wasn't the only issue on which candidates for school board in Cobb County, Georgia, were running, but it was evidently important in the July 18, 2006, general primary election.
The public radio show Speaking of Faith is doing a special show on Charles Darwin, his gradual development of the theory of evolution, and the various reactions, positive and negative, to the theory. The program is entitled "Evolution and Wonder -- Understanding Charles Darwin" and features an extensive interview with Darwin scholar James Moore, the author of The Post-Darwinian Controversies, and coauthor, with Adrian Desmond, of Darwin: The Life of a Tormented Evolutionist.
The president of Kansas Citizens for Science, Jack Krebs, is to speak on the flaws of the Kansas science standards at five venues in the state: July 24 in Overland Park, July 27 in Hutchinson, July 28 in Garden City, July 29 in Hays, and July 31 in Kansas City. Krebs was a member of the committee that wrote the original set of science standards, in which evolution was properly represented.

Hey all
I've been thinking for quite a while about buying/building a dedicated HTPC. The only thing keeping me from actually doing so, is that i don't really know what to expect from the amount of noise the product or assembled system will produce.
Right now i'm running XBMC on an old AMD 4600+ dualcore, 2 Gb Ram and a Radeon 5560 GFX, it runs everything smoothly, but the main nuissance is that it's quite loud. Tho not quite as loud as my i7 930 + 6870 Gfx. Both were originally bought for gaming, so i only went for performance, so it's pretty much just stock coolers and such, didnt pay attention to silent components.
Now, my question is... will an A6 or A8 system, or a zotac/acer/lenovo type box, be remarkably quieter, aka near inaudible ?
[CPU+iGPU] AMD A8-3850 4x2.9GHz HD6550D FM1 100W ($135 + $0)
[MOBO] ASRock A75M FM1 CIR USB3.0 SATAIII UEFI μATX ($75 + $0)
[CASE] SILVERSTONE ML03B μATX ($60 + $0)
[PSU] SeaSonic SS-400ET 80+ Bronze 400W ATX12V ($43 + $9)
--> appeals to me most, but how silent is it? Comparing to "universal" devices like for example gaming consoles, I'm fine with the noise levels of a PS3, but an Xbox 360 does bother me.
Thanks in advance for shedding some light on my situation

That is pretty much my exact configuration, except a 380W SeaSonic PSU. I also replaced the stock APU Heatsink/fan with this:
It is huge and silent! Because it is bigger, it doesn't have to spin as fast to move the same amount of air as smaller fans. Works great.
That being said, I also have a build with a A6-3500 that I don't have a case for yet... it is all built and running caseless at the moment with the stock heatsink/fan in my bedroom on a shelf. Even without the case, the stock heatsink/fan are pretty damn quiet. I can hear them when the volume is pretty low on the TV but at normal listening levels, the stock fan is not noticeable. I expect it to be even less noticeable once it is actually in a case.

You can build a silent HTPC with almost any CPU. It's the CPU fan, case fan and GPU fan that are making the noises. If you want to build a silent A8-3850, you can opt for this "PICOPSU-160-XT" Pico PSU, this "Scythe SCBSK-2100" CPU cooler and this "ENERMAX UC-8EB 80mm Case Fan" instead......

you can have a look at the MC001 from ARCTIC, I am running one with Openelec, it is flawless, even 1080p movies (even though some reviews mention a lower performance there, but I guess they were using a full Windows). The only noise is the HDD (you can still buy the barebone and add a SSD ). What I like the most is the Android app (but that is another story not linked to the Hardware).
Come chez memes.
Running XBMC on my MC001 with Openelec. Perfect HTPC with high WAF.

Take a look-see at my build. This thing is completely silent.
That is unless you put your ear right on the case,..but then, that's how they would listen for train's 20 miles away right. Ha.
I credit everyone's help in this build and especially THIS CPU cooler.
Scythe BIG SHURIKEN 2 Rev B. 5-Heatpipe Universal Low Profile CPU Cooler (SCBSK-2100) $47.95
There are no case fans,...and the CPU cooler is set to default speed of 10.
Once you knock it down to speed 1,...you can hear a pin drop.
As far as temps,..others have documented it,..it runs so cool.
I'll be posting my own temps once I get my family off the thing.

I've agree with others here. It's relatively easy to build an htpc which is quieter than a ps3. As long as you eliminate a loud psu with a pico. I notice how loud my ps3 is when I switch it on and it overpowers the slight fan noise of my build sitting on the shelf above it.
I also went with 2 Red Wing 80mm fans which are near silent.
So if you're fine with the ps3 noise, then check the multiple builds dotted around the forum.

Is there any way you could switch out the PSU?
This is the one I used: SilverStone Strider 400W, 80 PLUS, Active PFC Power Supply ST40F-ES (Black) $48.99
I was going to buy another one, but then another poster here (Eskro) recommended this one to another person, especially because the case was a Silverstone. This one may not work with your case, but there might be someone who could recommend one.

I have a SILENT 775 HTPC, so yes you can do it with every CPU.
As a general guide, the most silent solution is no fans. Often that will mean big. In some places that is hard to do (like my climate) so the next best option is a few large fans.
The larger the fan the quieter it is. Don't have a fan in the case smaller than 120mm if possible. That case you picked is made for 80mm fans, so it will be loud even with the best fans you can buy. I would only touch the larger SILVERSTONE model if you want silent.
Also be sure to upgrade the HSF fan. For example in one of my HPTCs I have that Scythe BIG SHURIKEN above, but I replace its thin fan with a regular size Coolermaster one that is a more quiet design. In fact never stick with the fans you get with stuff if you can, it is best to buy a set of quiet fans for the case.
Big culprits are those little GPU fans so get a fanless GPU if possible. Other problems are the PSU, but I find Seasonic PSUs have really nice fans in most cases.

Thanks for the recommendation, but I went with a pico recently anyway. For now, the stock cpu cooler and 2 silent case fans are quiet enough though I do plan to get the shuriken.

SAN BERNARDINO - Defense attorneys for Rickie Lee Fowler, the suspected arsonist in the 2003 Old Fire, wrapped up on Tuesday the interview that occurred between law enforcement and their client in 2004.
Over the past few days Don Jordan, who represents Fowler, had been playing audio recordings from February 2004, where the defendant was brought in to talk to authorities about the deadly fire.
Sgt. Joe Palomino was called again to the witness stand to answer questions about the final interview in the 2004 series. He was a detective with the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department at the time, assigned to the sheriff's homicide division.
In the interview, played for the jury in San Bernardino Superior Court, Fowler told the detective he was back voluntarily. But the defendant initially refused to give any information about the day the Old Fire started.
"In the beginning of the two-day interview, he told me he knew nothing about the fire," Palomino testified on Tuesday. "I took that at face value. But an hour later, it comes to light - Fowler said he was there."
Palomino said that started a gradual progression of bits of truth, which came out in two days of interviews.
"I had to try and decipher what was the truth and what wasn't the truth," he said.
"Mr. Fowler is very street smart, he's very manipulative and his statements were given for a self-serving reason," Palomino said.
Palomino's testimony mimicked the opening statements of Supervising Deputy District Attorney Robert Bulloch, who said Fowler toyed with authorities during the investigation and shared only fragments of information.
The Old Fire investigation - deemed the largest criminal investigation in San Bernardino County history - went on for years because of Fowler's withholding of information, the prosecution said.
Fowler, 30, of San Bernardino, is suspected of starting the 2003 Old Fire that burned more than 91,000 acres and destroyed more than 1,000 structures after starting on Oct. 25, 2003. The fire cost nearly $38 million.
The defendant has been charged with five counts of murder and special circumstances, which allow prosecutors to pursue the death penalty if he is convicted. Prosecutors say five residents in burn areas died from heart attacks caused by the stress of evacuation and threats to homes and belongings.
Fowler has pleaded not guilty to the charges.
Throughout the sheriff's interviews, Fowler maintained that he did not start the fire.
"Court don't bother me 'cause I know I didn't light the fire and I know there is no circumstantial evidence to prove that I did so," he told Palomino during the recorded interview.
Fowler later admitted to being present when the fire was set.
"Why did the fire start?" Palomino asked him.
"Accidental, probably, it was accidental," Fowler said. "It was started, but it wasn't meant to start the way it started. OK, it was lit with intent but not intent to burn a mountain down. It wasn't lit to go ahead and burn (stuff) down."
Jordan said that was the last interview with Fowler for two years. A sheriff's interview from 2006 is expected to be heard in court Wednesday.

Why are there atheists? This isn't just a rhetorical question – much scientific research into religious belief over the past couple of decades has concluded that religious belief is culturally universal, and arises from cognitive and cultural defaults that are persistent across societies. Many academics, especially in the humanities, might reject such universalizing claims, but the fact remains that religious beliefs and practices are found in all human societies, very nearly without exception. Clearly, there is something basically human about being religious. So does this mean that atheists are freaks? One psychologist says "Nope." Instead, she gives evidence to show that atheism is a perfectly expectable outcome of basic – and natural – personality differences between individuals. [Read more…]

Bring Your Own Party
Third Wednesday of every month
5–9 pm
Free with Gallery Admission
Bring your own party to your AGA! Taking place on the third Wednesday of the month, we invite you to bring the party to us, with engaging themes and activities that guarantee a fun time for all. With board games, LEGO building, prizes and more, BYOP is just one more reason to visit your AGA on our Late-Night Wednesdays!
September 18: Photo Op with Patrick Arès-Pilon
Focus in at your AGA at this photo-inspired BYOP. Bring your camera or camera phone to capture our iconic building in unique ways. Take part in an Instagram scavenger hunt and have fun peeking at stereoscopic imagery.
le Show de Peep
Le Tivoli is pleased to present a stereoscopic, interactive art installation entitled le Show de Peep. For the mere sum of 25¢, ladies and gents have the pleasure of viewing seven original three-dimensional images in View-master form that evoke the imagination.
Patrick Arès-Pilon
Directeur de Le Tivoli, Patrick Arès-Pilon aime se promener dans rues en contemplant la beauté innée du bruit, de la lumière et du movement entre les espaces present. Amant du film Patrick s'intéresse à sa preservation, à sa disintegration et à sa projection tout en explorant une esthétique synesthétique.
October 16: Game Night
Bring your favorite board game to the Gallery! We'll have tables set up, along with some classic games ready for anyone to play. Get ready for some heated competition as we challenge you to find all of the words in Megan Morman's giant word search Now You See It.
Sſtabhmontown Adventures
"Under yonder ruins are riches—that's where heroes like Kilgore 'the Exalted' II, Sheba the Destroyer, Bronzebeard the Average, and Mumblefluff, elfin occultist, first made their names. Venture into the depths, if only for a moment, and see if you too might return richly rewarded, or are lost forever."
Join a DIY-style adventure game with a table of rotating fellow players. Our game might be: a rewriting of the 1970s-born fad that now underscores today's mass-media landscape; comedic improvisational chatter; drawing maps and rolling dice; or perhaps just an unpredictable series of events.
Adam Waldron-Blain's interest in games has been close to his art practice since its beginning. In 2011 at the Banff Centre he guided artists up a magic mountain to steal goblins' treasure, and continues to play hide-and-seek, board, and role-playing games every week. He calls it "my drawing practice".
BYOP: Game Night is generously supported by the Edmonton Arts Council.
November 20: LEGO-mania
What happens when art and LEGO collide? Join in brick-building fun with your AGA and Media Architecture Design Edmonton (MADE).

December 18: Snow & Ice
Let's use the cold weather to our advantage and get creative with snow! Bring your own moulds to make snow forts and sculptures on our Outdoor Sculpture Terrace.

Snow Sculptures
Participants will explore sculpture using snow as their medium. Practical tips and snow sculpting tools will be provided. An adventurous spirit, warm clothes and mittens are recommended.
Edmonton based artist Ritchie Velthuis has been a practicing his craft for most of his life. This commitment was rewarded with the distinct honour of designing a Homeless Memorial for Edmonton in 2011 which was collaboratively created with Keith Turnbull, Mike Turnbull and numerous community artists.
After attending the Design Arts Program at Grant McEwan Community College in Edmonton, Velthuis worked as a graphic artist for several years but was always drawn back to a fine art sensibility. The last 25 years have been devoted to exploring sculpture in various mediums including clay, resin, stone, cement, ice, and snow. In recent years, Ritchie Velthuis has been fortunate to share his expertise with others and teaches ice, snow sculpture and figurative sculpture and various other ceramic courses in art centers and schools throughout Edmonton.

There's something about a border crossing that raises your pulse. Even if you've done nothing wrong, approaching an international checkpoint makes you sit up and take notice.
Exactly how nervous you are depends on the number of firearms displayed at the fence. When my wife and I crossed the border into Canada last week, we didn't see a single gun.
The Canadian customs officer stayed in his booth, asked some desultory questions and then let us in. The most intrusive moment came when he told us to take off our sunglasses. Delay: two minutes, tops.
Compare that to a border I crossed in South America 40 years ago where there were not only machine guns, but also cannons. My luggage was ransacked and my person thoroughly rubbed before I was shoved out of one country and into the next. Delay: hours.
In the years I've been crossing borders, nothing really bad has ever happened. I've lost fruit, reading material, a little bit of money and once even a gun.
In the pre-terrorism years of the '70s, my fiancée and I went north to meet her family. It was my first trip to Canada and my fiancée's first border crossing with an American. We both had a lot to learn.
Before agreeing to marry me, my future wife had never even seen an actual gun. Conversely, since getting my first gun at age 10, I had never gone anywhere without one.
When the Canadian customs official at the Sweetgrass crossing in Montana asked if I had any firearms, I almost laughed. Hell, yeah, I had a gun. I was American. Why wouldn't I have one?
The customs officer said, "Then you can't come in, eh?"
I had to drive back to America (40 yards away) and give the U.S. customs agent there a free pistol.
I didn't take guns to Canada anymore, but that didn't stop them from causing me trouble at the border. Years later, when I was a cop, my wife and I took our young daughters north to see the in-laws.
At the same border crossing in Montana, a Canadian customs official again asked if I had any firearms in the vehicle.
Me (honestly) • "No, sir."
Daughter #1 • "He has a big police gun!"
Daughter #2 • "It's in a safe place under the front seat!"
Daughter #3 • "And we aren't supposed to ever touch it!"
The next two hours were unpleasant. Three customs agents couldn't find a gun because there wasn't one, and my daughters got a long lecture about their rights to remain silent the next time they thought they were being helpful.
All of that has changed. I've given up gun-running. Today, as I prepare to cross the U.S. border for home, I'm going to smuggle drugs.
As soon as word spread last week that we were going to Canada, friends began calling to ask us to smuggle home some "magic aspirin."
More properly known as 222s, Canadian "magic aspirin" is 375 milligrams of acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin), 15 milligrams of caffeine, and here's the nice part 8 milligrams of codeine phosphate.
Magic aspirin works great on headaches, fevers and minor pain, but you can't get it in the U.S. without a prescription.
Unfortunately, Canada will only sell one bottle of magic aspirin per person. I had to round up 15 people to buy the amount I needed to satisfy the demand at home. I have an entire suitcase of illegal drugs to smuggle into the U.S.
I hope I don't get searched at the border tomorrow. Given the general mood of U.S. Customs today, they'll probably shoot me. And with my luck, it will be with my own gun.

Ship Weight:0.65 Servings:9 Newman's Own Organics Fig Newmans Fat Free - 10 oz. (283g) Newman's Own Organics Fig Newmans Fat Free is the first fig bar made with organic figs, organic sugar, organic flour, and without hydrogenated oils. The new cookie wouldn't have come to fruition without the cooperation of Kraft, as the name is being used under license from them. "We really salute Kraft for all their help with their Fig Newmans," states Paul Newman. "People loved the name, but without Kraft's consent we never could have created this product." continues Nell. Fig Newmans are available in: Fat Free Low Fat Wheat-Free/Dairy-Free Fig Newman's are certified organic by Oregon Tilth. Good FoodThat's what they kept in mind when they created their products. they focus on the kinds of products they loved as kids, but take them one step further by using the highest quality of available organic ingredients. They find that people really want to know how the ingredients are grown and processed on the way to their grocer's shelf. When people see how much organic foods have improved since the early days of packaged 'health' foods, they hope they'll try other organic food products.What's Organic?The materials below were developed by the USDA National Organic Program in 1994 and serve as a general outline of the definition of Organic as it will be used in the United States. DefinitionOrganic agriculture is a holistic system with the primary goal of optimizing the health and productivity of interdependent communities of soil life, plants, animals, and people. Management practices are carefully selected with an intent to restore and then maintain ecological harmony on the farm, its surrounding environment and ultimately the whole planetary ecosystem. IntroductionThe Organic Farm Plan is central to demonstrating progressive improvement of practices and measuring evolution of the management system as a whole towards greater sustainability. In this context, record- keeping is a key management tool for identifying problems and successful adaptations. PrinciplesProtect the environment, minimize pollution, promote health and optimize biological productivity. The primary goal of organic production systems is optimizing environmental health, human health and biological productivity. Organic producers therefore seek to reduce or eliminate reliance on practices and inputs (natural and synthetic) that may harm soil life, deplete nonrenewable resources, pose a hazard to water and air quality, or threaten the health of farmworkers or consumers. Replenish and maintain long-term soil fertility by providing optimal conditions for soil biological activity. The health of the soil is fundamental to the health of the whole system, and may be evaluated by the extent and vitality of its biological activity. "Feed the soil, not the plant," continues to be a primary tenet of ecologically sound soil management. Fertility improvement practices must balance physical, chemical and biological considerations to optimize the quantity and diversity of soil organisms. Such practices may include a combination of crop rotations, rotational grazing of livestock, cover crops, intercropping, green manures, recycling of plant and animal wastes, tillage, and judicious application of essential mineral nutrients. Maintain diversity within the farming system and its surroundings and protect and develop plant and wildlife habit. Biological diversity is a key ecological precept, essential to stability and therefore to sustainability. Diversity must be enhanced in every aspect of organic production, including the selection of inputs, crop varieties, livestock breeds, rotation cycles and pest management strategies. The principle of diversity can be similarly applied to personal skills, social interactions, and economic decisions. Recycle materials and resources to the greatest extent possible within the farm and its surrounding community as part of a regionally organized agricultural system. Organic systems intensively manage the individual farm system and use biologically-based inputs in preference to petroleum-based inputs. Soil and plant nutrients depleted through cropping and natural leaching are replenished by nutrient sources from within the farm and the surrounding community. Energy expended in transportation, manufacturing and handling of agricultural inputs and products is minimized to the greatest extent possible. Provide attentive care, that meets both health and behavioral requirements of farm animals. Farm animals must be managed to prevent health problems through a focus on diet, housing, handling and observation. Organically produced feed, in conjunction with care and living conditions which minimize stress, is the foundation of a health promoting management system. Attentive care for the healthy animal is a fundamental precept of organic livestock management. Maintain the integrity and nutritional value of organic food and processed products through each step of the process from planting to consumption. Organically grown food and processed products must be processed, manufactured, and handled to preserve their healthful qualities and maintain the principles of the organic management system. Ingredients, additives and processing aids used in organic processed products must be consistent with the overall principles or organic production. Consumers should be provided with the assurance that products bearing organic labels are certified organic by independent verification from seed through sale.Develop and adopt new technologies with consideration for their long range social and ecological impact. New practices, materials and technologies must be evaluated according to established criteria for organic production. It is assumed that organic production systems will progress toward sustainablity over time through technical innovation and social evolution.Newman's Own Organics Questions & Answers What types of figs are used in Fig Newmans?The fig varieties used are Calimyrma, Conadria and Black Mission.

As a child of the 50s, I am part of the generation that saw humans fly into space and came to believe that if we applied ourselves to a problem it could be solved - especially if we applied ourselves to science, engineering and math.
The news that the Soviets (remember them?) had put a man into space sent us into a frenzy.
We watched President Kennedy's challenge to reach the moon in 10 years.
I remember the nuns hustling us out of class one day to look up at the sky for a "really tiny reflection of light."

Sensory World provides sensory relief to Autistic children and adults far beyond the classroom. Our goal is to provide a comfortable judge free, hands on shopping environment for people with Autism, many other disabilities and their families. Autism is a complex developmental disability that typically appears during the first three years of life and affects a person's ability to communicate and interact with others. Autism is defined by a certain set of behaviors and is a "spectrum disorder" that affects individuals differently and to varying degrees. There is no known single cause of autism, but increased awareness and funding can help families today.
In March 2012, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issued their ADDM autism prevalence report. The report concluded that the prevalence of autism had risen to 1 in every 88 births in the United States and almost 1 in 54 boys. The spotlight shown on autism as a result of the prevalence increase opens opportunities for the nation to consider how to serve these families facing a lifetime of supports for their children. .
Currently, the Autism Society estimates that the lifetime cost of caring for a child with autism ranges from $3.5 million to $5 million, and that the United States is facing almost $90 billion annually in costs for autism (this figure includes research, insurance costs and non-covered expenses, Medicaid waivers for autism, educational spending, housing, transportation, employment, in addition to related therapeutic services and caregiver costs).
Though we have not broken ground yet on a permanent location we are in the fundraiser process. Our first Promotional venture will be our first annual 5K walk for Autism Awareness in joint with a major health fair Saturday September 7, 2013 at Bert Ferguson Community Center located in Cordova TN, 8505 Trinity rd. 38018 at 8am. As you see, for parents of children with Autism have it hard enough with all the extra expenses added to life as mentioned above. At the end of our campaign we hope to achieve a central store location where we can provide sensory relief to Autistic children and adults far beyond the classroom at a reasonable price. We want to bring all the necessities needed for daily life with disabilities to one location in addition to providing free sensory stimulation as parents may shop.in addition, we also plan to provide jobs for people with Autism. Children and adults with disabilities need a place to call their own safe haven. We are sincerely asking for your help and support to help us make this vision happen.

My 5 Fave Perfumes
These are the beauty items I can't live without.
-Kathryn H. Cusimano
Once upon a time, I was obsessed with eye shadow, liner, lip gloss, lipstick, mascara… you name it, I had it in spades. Those days are gone. Once I got to college, I decided to save bold eye makeup for very special occasions. By the time I got my diploma, I was barely wearing foundation, and I now have a fairly well-edited collection of beauty products, with very few extras. However, there is one set of products I like to change up: fragrance.
Despite regularly clearing out my beauty bag, I won't get rid of the fragrances I've collected in recent years. I've managed to narrow down that collection to my five faves. Let me know if you have any of these at home!
1. Falling in Love by Philosophy ($15-60, philosophy.com). This sweet, light scent is perfect for everyday wear.
2. Coco Mademoiselle by Chanel ($80, chanel.com). I always use this fragrance on date night.
3. Burberry London by Burberry ($55-86, sephora.com). I love this scent for chilly winter days and nights – can you tell I'm an Anglophile?
4. Lovely by Sarah Jessica Parker ($68, drugstore.com). This floral fragrance is perfect for girls' night out.
5. No. 5 by Chanel ($61.50, chanel.com). A classic passed down from my mother. You can never go wrong with No. 5!

Wall Street Journal Is Totally Pro-States' Rights Unless Corporate Profits Are At Risk
The Wall Street Journal came out swinging in favor of a Supreme Court decision that could force state-based lawsuits brought by state attorneys general out of their jurisdictions and into federal court despite complaining about federal encroachment on state powers in another Supreme Court case the very same day.
In a November 5 [1] editorial, the WSJ supported an outcome in Mississippi v. AU Optronics that would make it more difficult for states' attorneys general to bring successful lawsuits on behalf of their citizens by forcing state cases into federal court under the Class Action Fairness Act (CAFA), a forum where class actions are increasingly harder to win. The WSJ, clearly a fan [2] of insulating the wealth of large wrongdoer corporations from class action lawsuits, not only disfavors attorneys general filing lawsuits to protect its citizens, but also erroneously called [1] CAFA an "illegal loophole":
When Congress rewrote the law on class-action lawsuits in 2005, it didn't figure on being thwarted by the nation's top law enforcers. Now the Supreme Court has a chance to close what has become a large and illegal loophole.
The High Court on Wednesday will hear arguments in Mississippi ex rel. Jim Hood, Attorney General vs. AU Optronics. The protagonist is Mississippi AG Jim Hood, who is famous for moonlighting as a job creator for his trial-lawyer donors. The question is whether Mr. Hood's "state" lawsuits are really an attempt to circumvent the 2005 federal Class Action Fairness Act (Cafa).
In 2006 the Justice Department conducted a grand jury probe into alleged price-fixing by makers of liquid crystal display screens (LCDs). Some companies settled with the feds, others refused and weren't charged. The trial bar piled on with 100 or so copycat class actions.
In 2011 Mr. Hood filed his own lawsuit on behalf of his state, municipalities and Mississippians who purchased LCDs. His suit named the same six manufacturers targeted by the private class-action litigation, and 176 of his 206 paragraphs of allegations were verbatim or near-verbatim copies of the private litigation. This was no surprise since one of the two law firms Mr. Hood hired to prosecute his state suit -- Zimmerman Reid -- has also filed private LCD class actions.
This all looks like a run around the 2005 class-action reform. That law allows defendants hit with civil claims by 100 or more persons to seek removal to federal court, where the rules on classes are stricter and defendants can avoid biased state juries.
Mr. Hood also claims that he can bring his suit because he is its only "named plaintiff." He wants the Justices to ignore that he is asserting claims on behalf of thousands of LCD purchasers, and that Cafa is clearly aimed at any "mass action" that could result in a "monetary" judgment.
The WSJ seems happy to throw the idea of states' rights under the bus, even though in a different November 5 editorial [3], it lamented "dagger[s] aimed at the heart of federalism," protesting that "[t]he last century has seen Washington wrest ever more power from the states" and that "Congress needs constitutional guardrails or it will drive the states off the road." But when corporate wealth is at risk, the WSJ is suddenly terrified at the thought of states handling their state law-based legal issues in their own courts.
At any rate, the WSJ's claim that in passing CAFA, Congress "didn't figure on being thwarted" by states' attorneys general is especially odd given that later in the editorial, it admits that "Congress's reform took special care to preserve state rights." Indeed, Congress specifically exempted lawsuits that arise exclusively within a given state -- meaning that the harm occurs entirely in one state, and the suit is then filed under that state's law. This is the exact situation in Mississippi v. AU Optronics. For the WSJ to frame this suit as some sort of exploitative "run around" on the part of Mississippi is misleading, and at odds with the legislative history and statutory text of CAFA.
It is not uncommon for attorneys general to bring lawsuits on behalf of its citizens and consumers who have been harmed by large corporations. In fact, Congress explicitly allowed states to bring such claims (known as "parens patriae" lawsuits) in the context of antitrust violations [4], without the cases being characterized as "class actions." In its brief [5], Mississippi argued that Congress could have addressed parens patriae suits when it passed CAFA, but it did not.
As the consumer advocacy organization Public Citizen pointed out in its friend-of-the-court brief [6] for the Supreme Court, "CAFA's supporters unanimously disclaimed any intent to bring parens patriae action within federal jurisdiction":
By CAFA's express terms, parens patriae actions filed in the name of states by their attorneys general fall outside the scope of CAFA jurisdiction.
CAFA's background and legislative history confirm what its plain language provides: Parens patriae actions are not mass actions. The explanations of the mass action provision in the legislative history states that it is aimed at mass joinder cases in which the multiple named plaintiffs voluntarily seek to have their cases tried together. And in the final debates on CAFA, its proponents expressly stated their intention not to reach parens patriae actions. Congress' words and intentions matched perfectly. CAFA, as the enacting Congress intended, provides no jurisdiction over parens patriae actions brought by state officials.
Reporting on the oral arguments in AU Optronics, Reuters noted [7] that "[l]egal reforms, including the 2005 Class Action Fairness Act, have increasingly shifted class actions to federal court, which is viewed as friendlier to defendants. At the same time, the Supreme Court has tightened up the rules for what class action claims can go forward in federal court." Perhaps this is the reason behind WSJ's abandonment of federalism. The WSJ is more than happy to support states' rights -- unless those states go after corporate offenders.

Coffee Presses
French Press Coffee Makers
Often referred to as a "French Press," coffee presses combine ease of use with slow-brew quality, without the eco-terror of disposable filters. Using your press is simple: Start with freshly ground beans and grind them coarsely just before each brew. Add good quality, filtered water that's been heated to between 198 and 204 degrees Fahrenheit. The right temperature is essential to extract essential oils and to develop the fullest flavor from the coffee beans. Stir, then let the grounds steep in the the hot water for four minutes before pressing the plunger down to filter out the grounds. Pour and enjoy!

A wide range of tasters from coffee professional and author Kenneth Davids to serious and not-so-serious coffee aficionados all praise the smooth, rich flavor.

Published September 18, 2013
As Jennifer Berryman landscaped the front lawn of Bristol Homes on Wednesday, she remembered painting the nonprofit assisted living facility a year earlier.
"Coming here this morning, the apartments we painted still look wonderful," she said. "They are going to look great for a long time."
Berryman, an executive assistant in the UB School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, has been volunteering at Bristol Homes for the past three years as part of Western New York's Day of Caring. For her, the reward is seeing the long-term effect of her work.
On Wednesday, Berryman was one of more than 200 UB volunteers who turned out for the 21st annual Day of Caring. The event, organized by United Way of Buffalo and Erie County, mobilizes thousands of people to complete hands-on community service projects in the region.
UB has participated for 19 of the past 21 years, and this
Wednesday's turnout of 220 UB volunteers was a record, according to
Amy Myszka, UB's volunteer coordinator and director of
Wellness and Work/Life Balance.
Bristol Homes was one of 16 sites that UB employees visited, completing tasks from pulling weeds to organizing dishes in the kitchen.
Some volunteers had personal reasons for taking part.
"I came from a not-for-profit field that received Day of Caring help, so when an opportunity came to give back, it was an awesome way to complete the cycle," said Lauren Garlapo, accreditation administrator in the Office of Graduate Medical Education. Garlapo also volunteered at Bristol Homes.
The assisted living facility's activities director, Beth Mack, expressed her gratitude for the work put in by the UB community. Bristol Homes has a small staff, "so we could never get all of this done on our own," Mack said. "United Way is very gracious in getting volunteers here. It helps us out quite a bit."
In addition to veteran volunteers, students in the UB MBA program participated in Day of Caring this year as part of their orientation, helping to bring the number of UB workers to an all-time high.
"It just makes the city a better place," said Jim Gordon, a lead programmer/analyst from University Libraries, as he pulled a rake through the garden at Compass House, a shelter for inner-city children.
"We're in our office bubble day in and day out," and the Day of Caring is a great way to get out into the community, said Colleen Allen, director of human resources in the Office of Graduate Medical Education.
With more than 3,500 volunteers from across Western New York donating time and energy through this year's Day of Caring, Garlapo summed up the sentiment that many participants were feeling: "If everyone does just a small part, the whole world is better for it."

Associated Press
INDEPENDENCE, Ore. — Polk County authorities say it appears a burglar died when a rifle he'd just stolen was jostled and fired during a ride down a bumpy farm road.
Detective John Williams says investigators found a shotgun and the rifle Sunday morning, side by side on the passenger-side floorboard of a stolen farm truck, barrels pointed at the driver.
Williams says it appears that a lever on the shotgun got into the trigger guard of the rifle and fired it.
The weapons were among other goods taken from a nearby house on the farmland.
Williams says detectives found no indication anybody else had been in the truck, whose engine had been running for hours.
The man was identified as 19-year-old Genaro Hernandez Mendoza.

Great script, thanks!
Might want to consider adding an option to update Nmap's OS fingerprint database.
Idea was taken from firebits' post.Code:wget -O /usr/share/nmap/nmap-os-db "http://nmap.org/svn/nmap-os-db"
Had a chance to review and use this update script. I must say you did a good job on this. Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing!
nice scripts have been using it for a long time now, but after updating to 1.95 I get these error messages:
I know nessus isn't installed so that is right that he can't find it but SET is installed but is missing the version dir (I added it but I asseam that isn't right) also firefox is installed and update to v4Code:/root/scripts/btupdate.sh: line 72: =/opt/firefox: No such file or directory (C)opyright 2010 Scamentology ~ ###################################### # btupdate 1.95 # # A script for updating Back|Track 4 # ###################################### cat: /pentest/exploits/SET/src/version: No such file or directory /root/scripts/btupdate.sh: line 327: /opt/nessus/sbin/nessusd: No such file or directory
Update to version 1.96 Below is the change log.
NOW FIREFOX 4 and NMAP UPDATES!!!
Kismet is coming in the next version...
I may be waiting till version 5 comes out to do much more as it will probably break a lot of stuff in this script.
NMAP Update will install and/or update GCC.
Firefox will remove this software source for your sources.list file if it exists.
(deb http://switch.dl.sourceforge.net/pro...la/mozilla/apt all main)
Using the btupdate.sh -u will put the updated version in the working directory but will not delete the old version (sorry about that)
Newest version - v1.96
Thanks for reporting the bugs.

No facts, please
Research ››› ››› GABE WILDAU
Ralph Reed, former executive director of the Christian Coalition and regional chairman of the Bush-Cheney '04 reelection campaign, urged Nevada voters to rely on FOX News Channel for information about current events. A May 1 Associated Press article reported:
Stumping for President Bush, the former head of the Christian Coalition told Nevada Republicans he can't remember the last time he watched a television newscast on CBS, NBC or ABC.
Now a regional chairman for the Bush-Cheney campaign, Ralph Reed said he depends on the Internet, conservative talk show hosts and the Fox News network to get his information about the world.
And he urged Nevadans to do the same. ...
Reed told the crowd of about 250 Republicans that he has not watched a newscast of a major network in years.
"I get in the car in the morning and listen to Rush Limbaugh. On the way home, I listen to Sean Hannity. At night I watch Fox News," he said.
Just one day before, Vice President Cheney issued an extraordinary endorsement of FOX News Channel. An April 30 Washington Post article quoted Cheney praising FOX News Channel:
CHENEY: It's easy to complain about the press -- I've been doing it for a good part of my career... It's part of what goes with a free society. What I do is try to focus upon those elements of the press that I think do an effective job and try to be accurate in their portrayal of events. For example, I end up spending a lot of time watching Fox News, because they're more accurate in my experience, in those events that I'm personally involved in, than many of the other outlets.
Media Matters for America recently commissioned a poll conducted by the Garin-Hart-Yang Research Group. Among the findings was that FOX News Channel viewers disproportionately hold inaccurate or false views. "Among daily viewers of FOX News Channel, 72 percent say there is strong evidence about Iraq's possession of WMD and development of nuclear weapons, while only 44 percent of those who watch FOX infrequently say that this statement is true," the poll found.
