Red-hot Bernard Tomic has racked up his ninth straight win of the summer to book a likely third-round Australian Open blockbuster with Roger Federer.
In heatwave conditions at Rod Laver Arena, Tomic kept his cool after dropping the opening set to see off big-serving German qualifier Daniel Brands 6-7 (4-7) 7-5 7-6 (7-3) 7-6 (10-8) in two hours and 55 minutes on Thursday.
Tomic is through to the Open's last 32 for the third consecutive summer and will almost certainly get the chance to reverse his fourth-round loss last year to Federer.
The 17-times grand slam champion will carry an imposing 17-2 win-loss record into his second-round clash later on Thursday against Russian veteran Nikolay Davydenko.
Should the Saturday night showstopper materialise, Tomic will fancy his chances of knocking over the grand slam king after serving up another treat against Brands.
Despite the tightness of the match, Tomic was rock solid in extending his highly impressive run of service holds to 76 games stretching back to the quarter-finals in Sydney last week.
The 20-year-old also found it almost impossible to make inroads on Brands' serve - but achieved the only two breaks of the match to prevail after two hours and 41 minutes.
The tall German took the opening set in a tiebreaker without offering up a solitary break point.
Brands and Tomic continued to hold serve with ease right up until the 11th game of the second set when the Australian turned the match with a flash of brilliance.
The youngster showed great foot speed and balance to whip a spectacular running forehand pass down the line to finally gain a break for 6-5.
Tomic held his nerve to serve out the set from love-30 down and suddenly the match was back on level terms after an hour and 24 minutes.
Incredibly, Brands didn't drop a single point on serve in the third set until double-faulting on the opening point of the pivotal tiebreaker.
The mini break was all Tomic needed as he served out the set to nudge ahead for the first time.
The 120th-ranked Brands came up with booming deliveries to save three match points to force the fourth-set breaker and then fought off another four match points in the breaker.
Tomic had to fend off a set point of his own at 7-8 down in the tiebreaker and finally advanced on his eighth match point when Brands fired a forehand long.

Suunto D6i is the wrist dive computer of choice for those who take their diving seriously. Features like the tilt-compensated 3D compass and wireless air integration make it invaluable in situations where other people rely on your diving skills. It's also easy to synch with Movescount.com, so you can log and share dive info, images, and videos with the rest of the world when you're out of the water. The D6i offers wireless air integration, so you can keep track of current cylinder pressure and remaining air time with a glance at your wrist, giving you more time to enjoy your dive. Navigation is easier than ever before thanks to the tilt-compensated 3D compass, which gives you full confidence in the accuracy of the bearing, regardless of the angle of your wrist. Using DM4 with Movescount software on your laptop, you can easily synch your Suunto D6i with the Movescount.com online community, where you can store and share your dive data, images, and more. With Movescount, you can also share experiences on dive sites and connect with other divers from all over the world.
Suunto D6i has four dive modes. The Air mode is used for diving with standard air, the Nitrox mode for one or two nitrox mixes, and the Gauge mode for use as a bottom timer. There is also a dedicated Free Dive mode for breath-hold divers. With the D6i in Nitrox mode, you can accelerate decompression by switching to a gas mix with a higher oxygen percentage. You can also preset two different gas mixes (with between 21% and 99% oxygen) and set PO2 values for each individual gas. It's also quick and easy to switch between enabled gas mixes during your dive.
In Gauge mode, Suunto D6i works as a bottom timer, and also provides accurate profile sampling and bookmarking functions. A dive timer with a reset function displays your dive time in minutes and seconds. This is extremely useful for timing accurate bottom times and decompression stops. If you're serious about breath-hold diving, the new Free Dive mode puts all the functionality you need at your fingertips. The D6i samples depth three times a second, and gives you highly accurate data on the true depth reached. You can test upcoming dives and view no-decompression time data for different depths before getting in the water with the built-in dive planner. After your dive, you can easily transfer your dive data to your computer for further analysis using the optional Suunto DM4 software, which includes a detailed logbook featuring a graphical representation of all your dives. As well as being a full-featured dive computer, Suunto D6i is also a stylishly designed timepiece that looks as good in the office as does on the live-aboard.
The D6i Dive Computer is a compact watch style computer that measures 1.97" (50 mm) in diameter with a thickness of 0.61" (16 mm) and weighs a mere 3.98 oz (113 g) so you can wear it every day as a timepiece. Computer has an operational depth display from 0'- 328' (0 -100 meters) and in Gauge Mode will display as deep as 492' (150 meters). Computer is altitude adjustable to 10,000' (3,000 meters), has a 12/24 clock function, dual time, stopwatch, ascent rate monitor alarm, ascent time display, audible alarm, deep stop function, full decompression data, log book memory of approximately 80 hours, maximum depth alarm, personal adjustment features, safety stop function, and displays temperature.
The Suunto Reduced Gradient Bubble Model (RGBM) is a modern algorithm for predicting both dissolved and free gas in the tissues and blood of divers. It was developed in co-operation between Suunto and Bruce R. Wienke BSc, MSc, PhD. It is based on both laboratory experiments and diving data, including data from DAN. The wireless air integration is provided by the included Transmitter that is easy to install in you first-stage regulator HP port. This small and compact transmitter 3.15" (80 mm) in length and 1'57" (40 mm) diameter will transmit cylinder pressure to the wrist computer eliminating the traditional HP hose associated with conventional analog pressure gauges, lowering the divers profile and streamlining your gear for more efficient diving adventures. The rated working pressure of the transmitter is 4,000 psi (300 bars) with a maximum allowed pressure of 5,000 psi (360 bars). The cylinder pressure function not only gives you your current cylinder pressure, it also informs the diver of their Air Time Remaining (ATR). The computer calculates your breathing rate by the drop in cylinder pressure along with your current depth giving an accurate calculation of available time in respects to your breathing rate. It also will alert you when you have reached your reserve air 500 psi (35 bars) by displaying zero (0) air time remaining.
The Suunto D6i integrates a digital compass, which can be used both while diving and on dry land, and can be accessed from either the DIVE mode or TIME mode. The Suunto D6i displays the compass as a graphical representation of a compass rose. The rose displays the cardinal and half cardinal points, in addition to which, the current bearing is also displayed numerically. Computer is powered by a CR2450 Lithium Battery and the Transmitter is powered by a user replaceable 1/2 AA Lithium Cell. Computer has a stylish steel bracelet; comprehensive Owner's Manual and is covered by a 24 month limited warranty.
This product has a limited warranty of 24 months.

what nmap says?
Hey folks
I'm relatively new to the "scene" of security testing, so here's a very brief review of my problem.
I'm befriended with the administrator/webmaster of a website including a board (lastest release of BurningBoard software). I did some rather small things like securing my wireless-router, recoverings some self-made password-hashes with hashcat and so on.
Now I wanted to check if the website was vulnerable to any attacks. in order to do this, I used Fast Track, furthermore the db_autopwn function. Since it failed (0 sessions) I thought the website was secure. So just for fun I searched for my old Win95 PC and tried to get into it with Fast Track (also using db_autopwn). To my surprize, it failed again.
I tried some other PC's of friends and every attack failed.
So, what am I doing wrong? I know, db_autopwn is not really the best thing to do (automation is generally bad), but it should at least be able to find an exploit in a Win95-system which has never been updated.
I read lots of hours through the Fast Track-wiki, but nothing gave me answers
what nmap says?
Try running the commands through msfconsole instead of using Fast-Track. I found that Fast-Track uses sqlite3 and also not db_connect which is the problem I had with it. I'm just reading up on it and trying to figure it out. I've had success using postgresql as a db_driver.
Links that helped me:
just search 'autopwn' in these forums and you will figure it out. I haven't found a script yet that worked off the bat, seems I always have to mod something and I'm no coder.
Since you failed to mention specific services and ports, it sounds like you didn't ID any potential services/ports, and whether they are open across the various firewalls involved. I would suggest you learn OS's and networking protocols, and set up some vulnerable servers and learn to use the tool before you try it on live sites across the Internet.* And by "vulnerable servers" I mean something like DVL, or the original Win2000, and NOT Win95. Since Win9x did not have the same networking COM objects as the NT family, it wasn't as vulnerable as the later products.
*By the way, you may be committing a crime or at least breaking your ISP's TOS by running scans like this depend on several factors. Running such scans should only be done under contract, once you know what you're doing.
Stop the TSA now! Boycott the airlines.
There are many reports of exploits not working properly with the default database driver(sqlite). There are tutorials on these forums for using postgresql, try that and see if it helps. To test if autopwn is working at all try running a vulnerable service from "show exploits" and attacking the machine again. If it doesn't work try exploiting it manually. Great info on metasploit at Metasploit Unleashed - Mastering the Framework
Let us know how it works out for you.
To be successful here you should read all of the following.
If you are new to Back|Track
Back|Track Wiki
Failure to do so will probably get your threads deleted or worse.
However, the main point wis that he's playing with tools that he doesn't know how to use properly, and he's doing it live on the Internet. He REALLY needs to set up a test lab and learn to use the tools, before he does anything else.
Stop the TSA now! Boycott the airlines.

Giorgio Petrosyan vs. Hinata
K-1's relative silence continues, although there is a rumor of K-1 MAX happening in June or July, we've seen nothing definitive yet. The recent success of the Stand Up Japan event featuring Masato and KID Yamamoto has spawned a lot of positive press and apparently another charity event coming up in July. The Japanese press is all over the main event for the event as it will be a clash between Europe and Japan.
Japanese press have dubbed it "It's Showtime Japan vs. REBELS" with the main event being Giorgio Petrosyan vs. HINATA. Both men are at the top of the heap in the 70kg weight class. Petrosyan is currently the man to beat at 70kg, looking utterly unstoppable with two K-1 World MAX Championships in his possession. At the It's Showtime Lyon press conference Petrosyan mentioned that K-1 has still yet to pay him for his backpay, so there is a slim chance outside of K-1 making it up to Petrosyan, and if they actually have an event, that we'll see him competiing for them again.
So this should be considered a rare appearance in Japan for Petrosyan, against the top Japanese 70kg fighter outside of Yoshihiro Sato. There is talk of European Fighting Network and It's Showtime being more involved with the event, so stay tuned for more news regarding this event

The blood of a man doesn't wash off easily Traditional Enga saying
Firearms were a disruptive technology that turned life upside down 20 years ago in Enga, a province of indigenous tribes in Papua New Guinea. For centuries warring clans had fought with locally-made bows and arrows and often called a truce before anyone was killed. The bloodiest wars rarely claimed more than three or four lives.
After 1990, however, violence spiralled out of control with the advent of high-powered guns, typically made in the United States and stolen from security forces or provided by status-seeking politicians. Wars became increasingly frequent and lethal, according to University of Utah anthropologist Polly Wiessner.
But in a new study published this week in the journal Science, she reports that peace-making customs have reasserted themselves. With the help of compensation rituals involving exchanges of pigs, tribal courts have put an end to much of the fighting that killed 4,816 between 1991 and 2010.
"Social technology from generations past was adapted to contain the impact of adopted modern technology," Wiessner said. "New institutions build on former rules, norms and values. History matters."
Her findings illustrate the importance of the rule of law in maintaining social harmony, but also how effective rules must arise from within the culture, not imposed from without.
Western-style justice, which emphasizes punishment for individual perpetrators, may not resolve disputes in a tribal context, where "restorative justice" is more important than locking someone up, Wiessner argues.
The roots of peace • Extreme violence flared historically after small-scale societies "congealed" into large anonymous ones, where people did not know each other and had fewer incentives to maintain peace. It was the rise of modern states that checked violence, as Harvard psychologist Steven Pinker observed in his provocative new book, Better Angels.
But Wiessner believes her study demonstrates the wide variation in how effective pre-state societies are in controlling violence.
Pinker said her observations and "deep theoretical questions" align with the points raised in his book, which argues that we live in the least bloody period in human history.
"Human violence can't be understood by portraying our species either as inherently violent or as inherently peaceable, but rather by analyzing it as the outcome of the tension between violent and peaceable inclinations," Pinker wrote in an e-mail. He shared a podium with Wiessner at a U. conference three years ago.
"The result can be considerable fluctuation over time as new historical developments upset the balance and the impulses that lead to violence (such as dominance and revenge) escape their restraints. But the overall trend is downward a declining sawtooth."
Wiessner, who joined the U. faculty in 1998, has been studying the Enga since 1985, drawn to Papua New Guinea by her then-husband, who practiced medicine there. Her interest was in preserving the Enga's oral traditions, which she describes in her book Historical Vines.
She has made the histories available to the Enga themselves, helping to establish the Enga Tradition and Transition Center in the provincial capital Wabag.
With about 450,000 speakers, the Enga are the country's largest linguistic group, representing 110 tribes, each with five to 10 clans. Clans have 350 to 1,000 members who trace their roots to a common ancestor.
For millennia, the Enga had been a hunting-gathering society. But with the introduction of the sweet potato 350 years ago, tribes settled, and agricultural surpluses allowed the accumulation of wealth in the form of pigs.
Traditionally Enga women marry outside their clan, Wiessner said.
"This is a key to warfare. Ties through women's marriage are almost as strong as clan ties. You have ties to the clan you are fighting," Wiessner explained in an interview at the Salt Lake City home she shares with a territorial cockatoo called Dude.
"That's where the peacemaking customs came from. There were always people interested in not letting [warfare] go too far."
Fighting without rules • But with the influx of modern rifles and munitions, Wiessner saw interclan conflicts increasing exponentially, often leaving dozens dead and villages razed. Even schools and churches were torched.
With collaborator Nitze Pupu, a blind Enga law school graduate, she turned her attention to the tragic social experiment.
She noted that the Enga had access to guns for years, mostly shotguns jury-rigged from water pipes, but avoided using them in war. Clans rarely fought over territory; instead, they went to war to avenge an insult or injury or to show strength.
Village elders had maintained control of the violence until young fighters began carrying assault rifles into battle. After establishing reputations as fearless killers, these "hotheads" were hired by other clans to do their warring. The hierarchy of power inverted, with armed young men on top.
Wiessner likes to recount an exchange between an elder and a young clansman to illustrate this reversal.
"Go away, old man. Your day has come and gone," the fighter tells the elder, who responds, "You have nowhere to go, Rambo, but to the grave."
According to time-honored rules, warriors did not harm women, destroy property, kill opponents' leaders, finish off wounded fighters, mutilate corpses or take revenge after peace was declared.
The collapse of these rules led to "an incredible acceleration of warfare," according to Wiessner.
Reining in war • Her conclusions are based on her analysis of data from precolonial wars and 501 recent wars, court records, and interviews with 250 people, many of them young warriors. Wiessner and Pupu also interviewed in secret locations 16 mercenaries hired guns fighting another clan's war including a woman who wore an M-16 round on a necklace.
"They knew they would die, but they couldn't envision their own deaths. They couldn't eat, sleep, think straight until they killed," Wiessner said. Fighters relied on magic to protect themselves and indoctrinated younger peers to dehumanize their foes.
"They describe a revenge drive that makes them half man and half animal," Wiessner said. "They talk about fighting in an altered state of consciousness and claim to be enforcing the law in a failed state."
In the 1990s, the average number of people killed in each war was 19. The number of wars reached their height from 2001 to 2003, when 100 wars were waged but they were less deadly, killing an average of 12 people.
In both time periods, body counts sometimes reached 200 before a war ended. But comparing the first five years of Wiessner's 20-year study period with the last, the proportion of wars with more than 50 deaths fell from 9 to 1 percent. The share with less than five rose from 23 to 74 percent.
Tribal courts, which mediated or ordered exchanges of pigs rather than jail time were reasserting their influence. The carnage has dropped off to an average of about 5 deaths per war.
Wiessner believes traditional justice regained control because economic disruption and endless grief was exhausting the Enga, whose vast unarmed majority desired peace. Most New Guineans still live in traditional society practicing subsistence agriculture.
As tribal courts became more active, the social and material rewards for fighters waned, she said, while the promise of acquiring pigs outweighed the transient satisfaction clans gained from revenge.

On Monday, Dewey advised its partners to begin looking for work elsewhere.
The legal press has compared Dewey's situation to the 1987 collapse of Finley Kumble.
Dewey was not alone among firms of its ilk in going after star hires.
The New York law was intended to bite - and Dewey plainly intended to make his law an issue in the presidential election of 1948.
And in his self-retooling on immigration, Romney once again executed a perfect Dewey.
When they had nearly completed the rounds, Dewey ventured to offer his card by way of introduction.
So, also, there is no need to debate whether Dewey was right in staying there.
Mr. Dewey: There are a number of other topics that have been specially asked for.
There is no use arguing that Dewey should have abandoned his conquest.
To Mr. Dewey was turned over the job of directing the production of the first 25,000 masks for the American troops then sailing.

Comparative, Feminist, and Qualitative: An Uncommon Perspective on Cross-National Social Policy Research
In this article, the author reflects on the comparative, feminist, qualitative research process based on cross-national doctoral research recently undertaken on child care policy in California and Australia. This type of comparative social policy research is still in its infancy and poses methodological and conceptual problems not present in other types of social research. Examining these implications and problems, as well as the outcomes and benefits of feminist, cross-national social policy research, contributes to a methodological framework that promotes qualitative welfare state theorizing in complex international contexts.

From there, Teddy and Eunice took a jet to Otis Air Force Base in Massachusetts to join the family.
His eclectic ear enabled Atlantic to have Aretha Franklin, Otis Redding, and Led Zeppelin on the same bill.
Was Otis Redding sleeping around while his girlfriend was pregnant?
After "Who Gon Stop Me," the two join each other onstage for a rousing rendition of "Otis," the Otis Redding-sampling rap ballad.
The guitarist Otis Rush was on stage at the time, and he agreed to let Guy perform a song alongside him.
The story is wholesome in tone, as are all of Mr. Otis' works.
My dear Hiram," cried Mrs. Otis, "what can we do with a woman who faints?
General Otis did this, because he was told to, and then began again to sing the same old song.
If the Otis family did not want it, they clearly did not deserve it.
For an excellent statement of the conduct of the Federalists at this time see Morison: Otis, ii, 53-66.

Muth told Solomon that he had spent the night in Montrose Park and was desperate for funds.
He lives 45 miles south of Aberdeen in a small town called Montrose, home to the second oldest golf course in the world.
Everything went as merry as a marriage bell, pending the reply of Enistor to Montrose's letter.
Presently he found himself in the market square of Montrose.
In the next room he came upon Fannie standing in a group of Rosemont and Montrose youths and damsels.

Sou Fujimoto's compelling proposal for the 2013 Serpentine Pavilion in London's Kensington Gardens is the latest example of an aesthetic of dematerialization unique to Japanese design. This approach consists of the aggregation of a great number of self-similar, ultralight components into a cloudlike mass. Because of its nearly immaterial nature, the atmospheric poché that results is defined more by void than solid, creating thickened, visually, but not physically inhabitable, spaces in place of conventional architectural surfaces.
Fujimoto's enormous nest will be composed of thousands of 20mm steel poles arranged within a three-dimensional orthogonal grid. "The Pavilion will be a delicate, three-dimensional structure, each unit of which will be composed of fine steel bars," the architect said in a press release. "It will form a semi-transparent, irregular ring, simultaneously protecting visitors from the elements while allowing them to remain part of the landscape."
This method of material assembly is reminiscent of the wooden bracketing used to support the heavy roof structures of traditional Japanese temples and shrines. Bracketing acts as a kind of stepped load-bearing technique, in which weight is conveyed incrementally from one member down to the next.
In recent designs by Fujimoto, Kengo Kuma, Ryuji Nakamura, and others, bracketing has become a predominant form-making technique. Although it can be quite labor-intensive and unforgiving in terms of connection precision, this mass-assembly approach raises provocative questions about the relationship between interior and exterior, form and structure, as well as solid and void. How very Japanese.

I am an adult book buyer, but our children's buyer convinced me to read the three Suzanne Collins books. I have just finished Hunger Games series, Mockingjay. I admit they are compelling and one reads steadily to learn what happens next. They are even inventive and the characters are fascinating people, yet the more I read, the more uneasy I became until I could barely get through to the end of the third book. Why, I wonder, is no one (that I am aware of) talking about how violent these books are? [Ed: emphasis mine. The post goes on to describe some of the violent scenes in Mockingjay, which I won't quote out of spoiler concerns, but which you should click through to read if you're curious.]
Well, let's talk about it.
Some of my absolute favorite children's books of all time are violent -- beloved characters dying, murder committed, danger around every corner. And certainly going all the way back to Aesop's Fables and the Brothers Grimm, instilling morality in children by way of scaring the bejeezus out of them is a very old tradition.
But is there a line? If so, where's it at? How much is too much?
Speaking personally, ever since a high school classmate of mine was murdered I've tended to be more squeamish about violence in books and movies than the average American, but that's not to say I don't ever enjoy violent stories provided the violence is true to the story and not gratuitous. It's all case-by-case for me.
What about you?

Our Daily Correspondent
Walking and TalkingBy Sadie Stein
Growing up around wisecracking old relatives, you learn early how to craft a comeback. It doesn't need to be that witty. It doesn't even need to make sense. It just needs to be kind of sassy and really fast, to show you're wise to the game or something.
"Just who do you think you are?" an elderly uncle might demand, inexplicably. Or, "I bet you think you deserve some candy!" In such situations, you can show no fear. When you're a small child, this kind of obligatory badinage is awful. But it's a skill—if you can call it a skill—that stands you in good stead as an adult.
However, even those of us trained to keep our cool in the face of faux-belligerent idiocy are occasionally stumped. Despite my years of experience and calibration, there are, specifically, three situations that leave me mute and baffled. Read More

Getting Deoxys
Ive heard that there is only one way to get Deoxys, but that was only for the pokemon Colloseum Pre-Sale disk for the Gamecube, but im begining the think that there is more than one way to get it. anny ideas annyone?
Colosseum pre-order disks only give you Jirachi. Deoxys was given out at GameStop as an event, and there was the event in which you receive the ticket (I don't remember the name) which allows you to go to Island 9/Birth Island and catch it at lv. 30, among others. Motisma 02:36, June 10, 2010 (UTC)
- Aurora Ticket allowed you to go to the Birth Island, I do believe. The MarioGalaxy2433g5 {talk/contribs/Logs} 18:01, June 10, 2010 (UTC)
One way to catch deoxys is to first capture 500 pokemon in p d pt. Then go to a place and you will fight it. – 15:22, November 10, 2011 (UTC)
I don't understand.
(Tiffany Sorenson)
I'm sorry...I have pokemon white 2 and I don't understand how to get this pokemon. Plus how does it go into those different forms? Do I have to catch multiple ones to have each form? But how do I get even one? I've watched Destiny Deoxys and decided I like the pokemon,looked it up here,and don't understand how to get it. I also have pokemon pearl but I don't want it there. I want it added to my pokemon white 2 team. How do I do it?
In game info section, there's a block with name Useful moves. I don't think it should be there because it seems to be a person's own point of view. Instead it should be in section of moves that Deoxys can learn. --Monfernape_If any problem? 15:07, January 4, 2015 (UTC)

No Movi User CDR Reports in TMS
Movi 4.1
We have had an open ticket with Cisco TAC for months with no real good direction except what feels like a generic guidance to upgrade TMS. Within TMS, under the Reporting -> Call Detail Record -> User CRD reports, it is my understanding that there should be a drop-down for Movi users under the device type field before running the report. My drop-down only shows all and does not include any information about Movi users when running the report with device type set to all.
Any ideas or suggestions?

New 9/11 Timeline Entries: Training Exercises, False Hijack Reports, Bush on 9/11, and More
October 6, 2011
A large number of new entries have been added to the Complete 9/11 Timeline at History Commons describing important events that took place on the day of 9/11, while other new entries add to the growing body of information about 9/11-related training exercises.
One new entry describes how, from 1998, the US Secret Service included computer simulations of planes crashing into the White House in its training exercises. Another notable exercise was held early on the morning of September 11 in the White House Situation Room, based on the scenario of a terrorist bombing in the Middle East.
Also relating to training exercises, new details have emerged about an FBI anti-terrorist unit that was stranded away from Washington at the time of the 9/11 attacks. The Critical Incident Response Group arrived in San Francisco the day before 9/11 for a week of training. Such was the unit's importance that the White House made getting it back to Washington a priority in the hours after the attacks.
New entries describe two mistaken reports of hijacked aircraft on the morning of September 11. One of these aircraft was thought to be targeting NORAD's operations center in Colorado. This incorrect information may have caused NORAD to close the massive blast doors to the operations center. The other aircraft was thought to be heading toward Air Force One as it flew President Bush away from Sarasota, and this may have been one reason why Air Force One suddenly increased its altitude.
Details of the two phone calls made by Flight 175 passenger Brian Sweeney are described, the first call to his wife and the second to his mother, in which Sweeney described a possible passenger fight back against the hijackers.
An entry describes how an air traffic controller changed the flight plan of the hijacked Flight 93, thereby apparently causing mistaken reports that the plane was still airborne after it crashed. Also, a special plane operated by NASA was flying over New York State at the time of the attacks, and at one point Flight 93 flew less than 1,000 feet below it.
A number of new entries detail President Bush's time at Barksdale Air Force Base in Louisiana, where he recorded a short statement to the nation that was later broadcast on television. Base commanders only learned of the imminent arrival of the president shortly in advance. Yet despite the intended secrecy, a local TV crew was waiting near the base and filmed Air Force One when it landed there.
President Bush was provided with a high level of security after he got off his plane, and two A-10 jets were put on alert to protect the base. But the false alarms continued, with officials at Barksdale receiving reports of unidentified aircraft flying toward the base. While at Barksdale, Bush spent much of his time in the office of Lieutenant General Thomas Keck.
For security reasons, the number of people traveling on Air Force One was significantly reduced after Bush landed at Barksdale. But those remaining behind after Air Force One took off from the base were able to return to Washington later in the afternoon on a specially arranged flight.
Finally, an interesting new entry reveals how a novel by a popular thriller writer, published in 2000, predicted the possibility of a terrorist attack involving a jumbo jet crashing into the World Trade Center.

Units of Study
ECOS3015 - Law and Economics
Semester 2, 2013 | Credit Points: 6
Coordinator: Stephen Patrick Whelan
Law and economics examines the economic role of law and legal institutions on the actions of economic agents. The economic analysis of law is founded on models of human behaviour and examines how decision making is affected by different legal regimes. The behavioral approach gives rise to a set of principles that can be applied widely across disparate areas of the law, and is becoming increasingly important world-wide, as such analysis is often utilized in courts and public policy forums. The unit begins with a revision of relevant tools of economic analysis. Subsequently, it studies the economics of various branches of law such as: property; contract; nuisance; accident and liability law; and, criminal law
assignments (20%), mid-semester test (30%) and 2hr final exam (50%)

REDWOOD CITY, CA -- Electronic Arts launched a website in October that linked its popular home videogame Medal of Honor Warfighter to manufacturers of guns, knives and other weapons used in the game, according to a story in New York Times.
The cross-promotion provides a link between fantasy violence and real-life violence that some industry members may find uncomfortable in the wake of the Dec. 14 massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School.
The gunman, Adam Lanza, has been widely described as an obsessive player of shooting videogames, although no evidence for this claim has been produced. | SEE STORY
A spokesman for Electronic Arts said the company has taken down the links to real-life weapons-makers.

My boy is 3 and 4 months. He has very little interest in any kind of technical grappling at the moment )he just likes general wrestling on the floor with no technique!), but he is a big fan of punching, kicking and now knees. The rules are that he has to say he wants to fight first before he does it, so that he doesn't just start swinging at people (particularly his mother!). Generally though we have to have a gun fight first, then we have a sword fight, and then we go to fisticuffs. He also likes to go 'slo-mo' and watch me make funny faces as he throws slow motion horrible Wanderlei Silva hooks at me.
I've tried playing some grappling with him, but I think it will be easier when he has someone his own size to work with. I'm going to give it a little while longer and then see if I can find him some Judo locally.

Oh and my 1000th post haha

I don't think it matters really! Been teaching one of my little girls some boxing and American kickboxing (not MT at her age) since she was 4 so three years now. She has cerebral palsy and has a weakness down her right side so it's great for improving her balance and strengthening her weak side! She knows right from wrong and has the confidence to stick up for herself if she gets bullied as she may be a target as she gets older (which means I don't have to get involved)
And thanks everyone for the tips. Hopefully this thread can be read by other parents and they see the great advice given by you all.

What I'm trying to say is I don't think it's too young to do any martial art, it teaches respect, discipline and self control which all kids need but most lack nowadays! I started my little girl early because she needs to be Able to stick up for herself as she will be a target as she gets older! If she doesn't stick up for herself then I'll end up doing it which means I'll possibly be getting nicked so its everyone benefit. The hardest thing is to keep them interested, luckily I'm set up to train in my garden do when she sees me stretching or hitting the heavy bag or pads they want to get involved
My other hobby is airsoft and getting paid to 'hunt zombies,' so he's also obsessed with guns and all he ever wants to do is look at mine. He's only allowed as a rare treat though, which just makes him more interested! He also has about 20 toy guns now, knows all the different types, and insists on dressing as a soldier and running round the woods to hunt baddies, monsters, ghosts and zombies.
Here's a picture of last night's standard Saturday apocalypse training session (faces blacked out for the proper regiment look...):

Quality pic mate. Iv started taking her to the park and she has 20 minutes on the swings and slides then we walk to a grass bank where I chase her up it 10 times or until she asks for a carry. Going continue this 6 days a week unless she displays a clear hate for it. The bank is perfect for her size so would be a shame to waste it even though her mum rolls her eyes each time we do it. lol
That picture is great though hope you framed it I would if was me.
Really happy I made thread now so many wonderful storys been shared.

New England Patriots to sign Tim Tebow
Tim Tebow's tenure as a free agent will come to an end this week as ESPN's Ed Werder reports the former Heisman Trophy winner will sign with the New England Patriots in time for this week's mini-camp.
The Patriots had one roster spot open, but made room in the quarterback meeting room by placing Mike Kafka on waivers. By signing with the Patriots, Tebow reunites with Josh McDaniels, New England's offensive coordinator who was Tebow's head coach when the Denver Broncos selected him with the No. 25 pick in the 2010 NFL draft.
Tebow appeared in nine games, including three starts, for McDaniels, passing for 654 yards with five touchdowns and three interceptions while rushing for 227 yards and six touchdowns. McDaniels was fired after the 2010 season and replaced with John Fox, who turned to Tebow to replace an ineffective Kyle Orton as the Broncos opened the 2011 season with a 1-4 record.
With Tebow at quarterback, the Broncos won seven of their final 11 games to win the AFC West and advanced to the divisional playoffs following an overtime win over the Pittsburgh Steelers in the wild-card round. Despite the team success, Tebow completed just 46.5 percent of his pass attempts, prompting the Broncos to pursue and sign future Hall of Fame quarterback Peyton Manning to a five-year, $96 million contract on March 21.
Two days later, Tebow was traded to the New York Jets for a pair of draft picks.
Tebow had a forgettable season with the Jets. Not only did he fail to seriously push Mark Sanchez for the starting job, his role on the team was split between back-up quarterback and decoy as a punt protector on special teams. Tebow played just 73 snaps on offense, completing six of eight pass attempts for 39 yards and rushing for 102 yards on 32 attempts. When Jets head coach Rex Ryan chose to bench Sanchez for a game in December, he tabbed 2011 seventh-round pick Greg McElroy to start, a sign that Tebow would not return in 2013.
The Jets released Tebow on April 29, just days after selecting West Virginia quarterback Geno Smith in the second-round of the 2013 NFL draft.
Tebow passed through waivers and remained a street free agent throughout the OTA period. Dave Fleming of ESPN the Magazine wrote that Tebow's camp believed he was done in the NFL, but several NFL reporters were quick to point out that Tebow believed he still had a future in the league. Michael Silver of Y! Sports reported that Patriots head coach Bill Belichick wasn't going to go near the Tebow circus and that the legendary coach "hates" Tebow as a player.
Belichick, who has a close relationship with former Florida head coach Urban Meyer, refuted that report to Field Yates of ESPN Boston and has now proven it with his actions by actually signing Tebow to a contract. With the corresponding release of Kafka, Tebow is now the No. 3 quarterback behind future Hall of Famer Tom Brady and Ryan Mallett, a 2011 third-round pick who sat his entire rookie season before attempting four passes in the 24 snaps that Brady did not play in 2012.

Immigration bill gives amnestied residents 'immediate' access to welfare
The immigration bill introduced to the Senate a week and a half ago would, if passed, allow illegal immigrants to access state and local welfare benefits immediately, Breitbart News has learned. The financial impact of allowing potentially millions of immigrants onto state and local public assistance could overwhelm these programs' budgets.
Senate Budget Committee ranking member Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL) uncovered this loophole in the bill and many others, and he will circulate a memo detailing the gaps in the bill on Tuesday. Breitbart News exclusively obtained a copy of the memo before its public release.
"The Gang of Eight made a promise that illegal immigrants will not be able to access public benefits," Sessions said in a statement to Breitbart News. "We already know that, once granted green cards and ultimately citizenship, illegal immigrants will be able to access all public benefit programs at a great cost to taxpayers. We have, however, identified a number of loopholes that would allow illegal immigrants to draw public benefits even sooner than advertised."

Thousands Affected By Canceled Flights At LAX
(Los Angeles, CA) -- Thousands of passengers are being affected by flight cancellations at Los Angeles International Airport due to the shooting there this morning. Most of the airport was shut down immediately after the shooting so that police could secure the area and treat the wounded. FlightAware.com says more than 120 flights in and out of the airport have been canceled. Hundreds of passengers are gathering at hotels near the airport with baggage in hand wondering when they'll be able to get a flight out.
Airport officials say there's no set time for airport operations to be fully restored. Some flights have been diverted to other airports in the region. So far, there is no major ripple effect on nationwide air travel.

A world-famous Moscow professor -- rich, successful, and violently envied by his neighbors -- befriends a stray dog and resolves to achieve a daring scientific "first" by transplanting into it the testicles and pituitary grand of a dead man. But the results are wholly unexpected: a distinctly and worryingly human animal is on the loose, and the professor's hitherto respectable life becomes a nightmare beyond endurance.As in The Master and Margarita, the masterpiece he completed shortly before his death, Mikhail Bulgakov's early novel, written in 1925, combines outrageously grotesque ideas with a narrative of deadpan naturalism. The Heart of the Dog can be read as an absurd and wonderfully comic story; it can also be read as a fierce parable of the Russian Revolution.

This early novella from Mikhail Bulgakov, published in 1925, already shows the surreal comic genius that later produced The Master and Margarita, the writer's masterpiece. A kind of Frankenstein parable, Heart of a Dog is the story of a stray dog that gains a human intelligence after a prominent Moscow professor transplants human glands into the unfortunate canine's body.About the Author:
Mikhail Bulgakov (1891-1940) was born and educated in Kiev, where he graduated as a doctor. He rapidly abandoned medicine to write some of the greatest Russian literature of this century.
