Uhh, uhh
It's The Gift and the Curse
Uhh, uhh, yeah
First they love me, then they hate me, then they love me again
They love me again
Let's take a trip down
I gotcha
Let's take a trip down memory lane at the cemetery
Rain, grey skies, seems at the end of every
Young black life is this line, "Damn, him already?
Such a good kid," got us pourin' Henn' already
Liquor to the curb for my niggas up above
When it cracks through the pavement, that's my way of sendin' love
So, give Big a hug, tell Aaliyah I said hi
Till the next time I see her, on the other side
He was just some thug that caught some slugs
And we loved him cause, in him we saw some of us
He walked like us, talked like us
His back against the wall, nigga fought like us, damn
Poor Isis, that's his mama name
Mama ain't strong enough to raise no boy, what's his father name?
Shorty never knew him, though he had his blood in him
Hot temper, mama said he act just like her husband
Daddy never fucked with him, so the streets raised him
Isis blamin' herself, she wish she could've saved him
Damn near impossible, only men can raise men
He was his own man, not even him can save him
He put his faith in a thirty-eight in his waist
But when you live by the gun, you die by the same fate
End up dead before thirty-eight, and umm
That's the life of us raised by winter, it's a cold world
Old girl turned to coke, tried to smoke her pain away
Isis' life just ended on that rainy day
When she got the news her boy body could be viewed
Down at the City Morgue, opened the drawer, saw him nude
Her addiction grew, prescription drugs, sippin' brew
Angel dust, dipped in WOO!
She slipped into her own fantasy world
Had herself pregnant by a different dude
But reality bites and this is her life
He wasn't really her husband, though he called her wife
It was just this night when moon was full
And the stars were just right, and the dress was real tight
Had her soundin' like Lisa Lisa, I wonder if I take you home
Will you still love me after this night?
Mike was the hardhead from around the way
That she wanted all her life, shit, she wanted all the hype
Used to hold on tight when he wheelied on the bike
He was a Willie all her life, he wasn't really the one to like
It was a dude named Sha who would really treat her right
He wanted to run to the country to escape the city life
But Isis liked this Broadway life
She loved the Gucci sneakers, the red, green, and whites
Hangin' out the window when she first seen him fight
She was so turned on that she had to shower twice
How ironic it would be some fight that
Turned into a homicide that'll alter their life
See, Mike at thirty-two was still on the scene
Had a son fifteen that he never saw twice
Sure he saw him as an infant, but he disowned him like
"If that was my son, he would look much different
See I'm light-skinned and that baby there's dark"
So it's mama's baby, papa's maybe
Mike was still crazy out there runnin' the streets (fuck niggas want?)
Had his old reliable thirty-eight gun in his reach
It's been fourteen years, him and Isis ain't speak
He runnin' around like life's a peach, 'til one day
He approached this thug that had a mean mug
And it looked so familiar that he called him "Young Cuz"
Told him, get off the strip but the boy ain't budge (fuck you)
Instead he pulled out a newer thirty-eight snub
He clearly had the drop but the boy just paused (hold up)
There was somethin' in this man's face he knew he seen before
It's like lookin' in the mirror, seein' hisself more mature
And he took it as a sign from the almighty Lord
You know what they say about he who hesitates in war
(What's that?) He who hesitates is lost
He can't explain what he saw before his picture went blank
The old man didn't think he just followed his instinct
Six shots into his kin, out of the gun
Niggas be a father, you're killin' your son
Six shots into his kin out of the gun
Niggas, be a father, you killin' your sons
Meet the parents.. {*echoes and slows down as it fades*}
On this song from The Blueprint 2: The Gift & the Curse, Jay-Z tells a dramatic (semi-autobiographical) street tale with a twist. The moral of the story? Be there for your kids no matter what the circumstance.
Just Blaze has said that the original beat of the song was completely different, but when they mixed the track they changed many elements to avoid sample clearance issues. Blaze had to reproduce the record in just one night because it was very close to the date that the album had to be turned in. Hov was adamant that he wanted 'Meet the Parents' on the album because it needed more songs containing the story telling elements he was famous for.
Jay decoded this track in his book Decoded, saying the song functions as a "public service announcement." He also says:
I never intended "Meet The Parents" to be subtle. In my mind it was a morality play, a PSA for that generation of men who may as well have emptied their guns on their sons when they left their lives.
Just Blaze opened up to Complex about the beat:
That was a completely different beat until we mixed it. For whatever reason, they didn't want to attempt to clear the original. I don't think there was an issue where they couldn't clear the sample, but it was too much of a process to get the sample cleared. Jay kept recording, and it was getting close to the date where we had to start turning stuff in. He was adamant about that making the album, because he wanted the story element on the album. He didn't really have a lot of those, so I reproduced the record in one night.
Since Jay didn't die at the hands of his father in a street altercation, it isn't a retelling of his life. But there are parallels between Jay's life and this track. His father did leave him when he was young, but Jay patched things up with him around the time Jay penned this track. Unfortunately, his father Adnis Reeves passed away soon after their meeting.

PHOTO: Miley Cyrus adopts new dog, Moonie
Listen to Miley Cyrus on iHeartRadio
Miley Cyrus may have found a way to cope with the recent death of her dog Floyd. The singer was weeping in grief on stage during her concert in Boston last week, but she's letting Twitter followers know she's adopted another puppy to help deal with the loss.
She's posted a photo of a new furry friend named Moonie, along with a caption reading "My mama knew my heart was broken." Miley adds that "no one could ever replace" her passed Alaskan Klee Kai, Floyd, but that her new dog Moonie is a "precious angel" and "lending [her] some fur to cry on."
my mama knew my heart was broken 💔 & this morning I woke up to Moonie kisses 😿 pic.twitter.com/1nUudVDaOz

Lately it feels like the north side just isn't what it was, don't know if I am just going at the wrong time or if the sand pumping has just screwed it all up:mad:
IMO its breaking about as good as it ever does any more based on about 5 sessions in the last few weeks....low tide is key.
ya low tide is key. also a long period swell is generally going to be better there then a real short period wind swell.
I think the cove is about the only good thing north side has to offer and even that is inconsistent...
north side iri probably had some of the most fun waves ive surfed in a while on president's day monday especially in the morning.. til that random storm came around 5
With the right size and angle, that left is the best. You can have the crowded peak,..for that to fold over, no one will really be out anyway, so i guess I would take both.:cool:
What we need but have not seen for years is a big ass gale to sit and stall off the coast at a medium-close distance, for a number of days. If you have ever seen it with size you know it could handle Double OH, and more off the main peak. Of course getting out to it would be another story, unless the period was just right, at least by way of paddle out.
Either way,........ At that size, I still think the LEFT is better. At least it goes Hollow. For the main peak to go Hollow and maintain the line would be crazy.
Such a shame that we actually have a real big wave spot right here on Delmarva, but never any big waves to fill into it.
Labor Day weekend 2 years ago, nuff said.
Hard to believe it has been two years already. Man i could feel old by thinking about that, guess i won't think about it.

How to Wear Brightly Colored Accessories
Neon accessories are making quite the splash this summer; we'll teach you how to wear it without looking like a flashback from the '80s.
-Anisa Young
Love the neon and bright color trend, but scared to blind the folks on the streets? Neon is definitely a trend we would advise you to start by splashing around in the kiddie pool and gradually working your way up to the deep end. Running and cannonballing straight in may result in an unwanted color catastrophe.
Read The Perfect Outfit! What to Wear on a Lazy Sunday
The best way is to start with the little things, like accessories. Just add a touch of neon or color here and there and BAM! Your outfit has flavor, snazzy and all that jazz. Here are our top picks for a kaleidoscope of colors!
1. Charlee square framed sunnies ($99, tedbaker-london.com). A little retro flair makes these shades fun, flirty and the center of attention.
2. Ray Ban 2140 sunglasses ($159.99, opticsfast.com). A classic shape everybody knows and loves. The pop of red makes me want to sing "Cherry cherry boom boom!" a la Lady Gaga.
3. Vesoul sunglasses ($350, dita.com). A twist on the traditional cat-eye shape, the blue shade goes great with all colors of the rainbow.

State of the University: 'Great things lie ahead'
Despite some of the steepest funding cuts experienced by any university in the country, the University of South Carolina is strong, focused and determined not to allow circumstances to define its future, USC President Harris Pastides said Wednesday (Oct. 27) in his State of the University address.
"Our university has been stretched, pushed, tugged on and tested in so many ways this past year, and while I don't expect that to change any time soon, I am confident that we are more ready, more resilient and more resourceful than at any time in our past," Pastides said. "I am confident that great things lie ahead."
Pastides, who is starting his third year as USC's president, spoke to the university's faculty, staff and students in the School of Law auditorium, updating them on a year that has seen deep cuts in funding but huge accomplishments in the classrooms, research labs, fund raising efforts and on athletic fields.
He pointed to the university's many highlights of the past year. Among them:
Welcoming a record number of freshmen in Columbia and throughout the system. Nearly half of the baccalaureate and graduate degrees in the state are earned at USC.
A contribution of more than 350,000 volunteer hours and nearly $1.5 million in donations to community organizations by the university family, including raising money to support those harmed by the Haiti earthquake and to support the Children's Hospital in Columbia.
Private contributions of more than $117 million, including $30 million from graduates Bill and Lou Kennedy of Florida to create the Kennedy Pharmacy Innovation Center.
The university's contributions to the state's economic development, including at Innovista, the university's innovation district where research, entrepreneurship and job creation come together. Since 2000, the university's technology incubator has graduated 27 companies with 720 new jobs, and there are dozens more companies in the pipeline. In the coming years, the Darla Moore School of Business will move to its new home in the heart of Innovista.
A record year in research funding, placing USC in the highest tier of research universities in the country. Those figures are validated by the National Research Council's recently released study of graduate programs in humanities and sciences, which found several highly ranked programs at USC, including the state's top rated graduate programs for engineering, and high marks for English, biology and geography.
Pastides also spoke of the university's commitment to the state and its role in community outreach, particularly in the area of health disparities among South Carolinians. The Arnold School of Public Health this year received a $6.7 million five-year grant from the National Institutes of Health to further develop efforts in studying cancer and other health disparities.
The university's commitment to address health disparities is evident in its plan to increase the size of the medical school. Earlier this year, the boards of USC and Greenville Hospital System approved plans to move forward in establishing a campus of the USC School of Medicine in Greenville to train more doctors. No state funding will be used in the budget model for the program, Pastides said.
"Having devoted my career not only to higher education but also to public health, I can tell you that the most cost-effective thing to do is to put more primary-care doctors, as part of teams that include nurses and other health professionals, in the underserved areas of our state," Pastides said.
His talk was accented with video clips from university students, alumni, faculty, staff and researchers, who spoke about the university's accomplishments in the past year. Among those were Kelly Truesdale, a recent Moore School IMBA graduate, and Dr. Ralph Riley. Truesdale is the chief operating officer of SysEDA, a new start-up company that uses intellectual property developed in the College of Engineering and Computing with the expertise of the Moore School. Riley, a physician practicing family medicine in Saluda, has witnessed the face of health disparities in rural parts of the state.
Looking ahead, Pastides predicted the next year would be "a vexing one for every one of our campuses, from Allendale to Union, and every one in between."
Some common ground was found at a recent higher education summit called by Gov. Mark Sanford, but there was also disagreement on points about higher education funding, Pastides said.
"We used facts front and center, as we always will, but we will also need to use the art of advocacy," Pastides said. "The fact is that economists are projecting an additional $20 million to $25 million cut for USC in the next fiscal year in addition to the $110 million taken away over the past two years."
He said he expects the next political season to bring calls for tuition caps and limits on out-of-state enrollment, and there has already been a limited moratorium on campus construction -- even though nearly every dollar spent on construction is not state allocated or tuition based, he said.
Pastides said the university's administration and Board of Trustees "have never been reckless or wanton in setting its tuition rates. We have been and always will be compassionate and businesslike in setting the cost of the high quality product we deliver."
He said the university would love nothing more than to have the cuts of the past two years restored, allowing the university to roll back tuition increases to match the rate of inflation.
"But the reality is that the direct annual costs of a college education are in the neighborhood of $16,000 to $17,000 per student – and that has to come through some combination of tuition and state funding. It's the same at every public university in America."
He said the university system remains committed to educating every applicant from South Carolina who meets the university's admissions standards, along with a good mix of out-of-state and international students. The combination allows USC to serve its students and the state's global future.
"As a university system, we have never before been educating so many South Carolinians, and our goal is to further increase access to higher education in this state," he said. "Access and affordability are the watchwords of our commitment."

Network? Over the holidays? It might not go together like a hand in a fleece mitten.
Family and contacts.
Community and professional network.
Holidays, vacation, downtime AND job search, job search, job search?
But here's the secret: the holidays may just be your best bet for finding professional success. Here are some tips to help you reach your ambitions—with a warm heart and full of holiday cheer, that is.
Step One: Networking over eggnog
When it comes to the perfect recipe for job satisfaction, there's a lot of evidence that it goes something like this: doing what you love with people you trust. In 2012 the Society for Human Resource Management released a study on job satisfaction. Of all the many aspects affecting job satisfaction, the top contributor was "opportunities to use skills and abilities." In other words, the dream job. Also in the top five were two factors all about relationships: communication with senior management and relationships with supervisors. You might call this working with good people.
Doing what you love. With good people. And the first step might just be holiday parties.
Family, friends, your family's friends, friends of family friends, you're friend's second cousin once removed. Sounds like a recipe for holiday cheer. Also sounds like good people that more than likely have an interest in helping you do what you love.
Step Two: When to say "No-No-No" to Networking
The good news about holiday networking? You don't have to bring your resume to a cookie swap. In fact, don't. No one wants to pass out a dozen chocolate chip and end up with a dozen Curriculum Vitae. Instead, come prepared to meet and greet—and know how and when to introduce your professional aspirations into the conversation.
Step Three: 'Tis the Season to be Connecting with Employers and Alumni
If you've been looking to reach out to an employer, alumni, or contact, the holidays might just be the perfect time. Generally, hiring managers are less likely to travel during the holidays or work on time-consuming projects. And how many people are spending their holidays focusing on the job search? You can bet fewer than during the rest of the year.
Step Four: However, Have Yourself a Merry Little Common Sense
You know what's worse than the cat climbing up a tree full of ornaments, knocking it over, and shattering the clay star you make for your grandmother in preschool?
Sending someone a career-related email on a holiday. New Years Eve, New Years, Christmas Eve and Day, Hanukkah, Kwanza, and all other holidays around the season are not days to send an email or make a phone call. Take a breather, roast some chestnuts, or build a snowman instead.
Step Five: But Do Send Holiday Cards
If you've had informational interviews recently, now is the perfect time to commemorate your visit—and the holidays with a card. It doesn't hurt to slip in a line or two acknowledging you're in the job search. And, of course, don't forget sending cards to friends and family! Not only is that a vital part of your holiday season, as mentioned above, they're also your most organic professional network.
Step Six: Don We Now Our Updated LinkedIn Profiles
For one, that high school picture has got to go! Choose a new one, update job information, and add new skills. Now is the time to try to complete your profile and make it a strong representation of what you have to offer a potential employer. Make your profile even more visually appealing by uploading projects, videos, and presentations.
But more generally, this is your time to take that career-advancing step that you've been putting off. Oh, so you have some free time? How about a freelance job? Photographers, artists, and writers, the time is nigh!
Interested in social justice? Find a temporary volunteer position in your community. The holidays are a busy time for service organizations, so lending a helping hand at local justice centers or nonprofits can be especially important.
Social media guru? How about spending some time connecting with industry thought leaders on Twitter? Take advantage of this time to learn something new about your target industry—some interesting little factoid that you can slip into your next interview.
Step Seven: Be Merry
Most of all, don't get discouraged! Break out the gingersnaps and take some holiday cheer to heart. That's perhaps the best career boost you can't get year-round.

@Portal: Statistics are meaningless. Haven't you been listening to everyone on the internet? That's why I don't trust stuff saying X amount of people died from source Y. It's all statistics, which we all know is the asshole of mathematics, second only to sociology in terms of pointlessness. Now if you'll excuse me I have to go smoke while making fun of other cultures.
OT: TF2. I left my favorite server for like 4 days and when I came back it was full of powergaming assclowns.
Idle server and some stuff. Bust being a civilian and all that :3
@oppp7: You forget my ace in the hole, however.

New Vegas!
Followed by a sexy crash.
Pokemon again.
Messing around with lights on gmod.
Why doesn't this thread appear on the front anymore?
I think they sunk it.
Been done (mostly) with Black so I'm gonna try Sim City 3k. Was playing Caesar 3 earlier. Wow that game is irritating with the horrible AI.
Played some Half Life 1 before I had to leave my friend's place.
Man.... that was an awesome time we had.
Goddamn garbage disposal malarky. I should probably learn how to play that game.
Pokemon Heart Gold.
FINALLY took out the Kimono girls and Ho-Oh.
Now to get stuck at the Elite 4.
@oppp7: It's as simple as they get.
WASD, mouse-clicking, f if you want some flashlight action, r if you don't like auto-reload, e to use dat shit, and scroll wheel to change weapons if you're adventurous.
@Portal: Lolwut? I'm playing Sim City 3k.
OT: Typing this sentence I'm grinding up most of my pokemon to get all the species in B/W.
Oh, I dunno. I'm just going with TF2 since it sounds about right.
@oppp7: Derp. Sounded like you were referring to Half Life :x
Diablo 2. The core gameplay is fast paced, easy, and fun, but there are so many issues that I think I'm done with it. And maybe even the series if they don't change things in 3.
Trollin with spy on Tf2 surf servers.
Thank the gaben for the Dead Ringer.
Some idiot traded me a reclaimed, the Warrior's Spirit, and an extra weapon for my Mad Milk.
Some people, I tell ya....
Tried Dwarf Fortress. I did... bad, I guess? Man, I can't tell. I still haven't read everything so I have no idea how good/bad I'm doing. And the graphics don't help with that...
Plus I skipped one of the starting steps so now my characters don't have many skills/I have several cats.
That overhaul mod is still making my eyes ejaculate with pleasure. Balmora looks like an actual JUNGLE town, not a desert town.
@Portal: Where were you? I got abandonment issues.
OT: I got the max survivor title in about 3 days. First time in several years my main got a new title. 3 away from GWAMM.
Heart Gold.

@oppp7: Living a life.
Final Fantasy 3.
I have no idea why I'm replaying it, I have Pok�mon White...
Guild Wars
Goddammit WiK...
A couple hours on Fallout 3.
I'm exploring that huge area in the Southeast, and getting some damn awesome kills/deaths:
One ghoul I headshotted in the explody way, and he did a backflip over a ledge.
Another ghoul was literally an inch from my face, so I quickly pressed 'V' and made his head explode awesomely.
One death I had, though, was just as funny - house with super mutant brutes in. I shoot one, but then his friend fires his rocket launcher, which misfires and kills the one I shot. I get out my Missile Launcher and get to 'two can play at this-' before I get blown up by the same guy XD
Then there was a super mutant master on a roof. After dying a lot, I decided to use one of my Stealth Boys. I tried to fire missiles at him, but that sucked, so I pulled out my sniper rifle and got him in two shots, causing him to flip in a ridiculous physics-defying way off the building.
"Ghost Reporting."
Haven't been able to, taking too long on this project BS.
On my way to Caesar's Legion's main camp in NV.
TF2 on the Vs. Saxton Hale server.
It's probably the first time I've played in a remotely serious server in months.
WBC2 again. Leveling my dwarf slowly. Aside from these last 2 matches I haven't played any video games since Saturday.
Joined the Grey Wardens in DA:Origins with my mage: Magnus.
Zaishen vanqed Shattered Ravines for half a gold Z-coin.
I'd be surprised if anyone understood that.
TF2 on the Vs. Saxton Hale server again.
Realized I suck as:
Scout (big time)
WBC 2. I hate dwarves.
HL2: Episode 1
*waits on Episode 2 to download*
Pok�mon. after fishing in fishing spots for an hour, I looked it up on Serebii.
Apparently the chance of catching the guy I'm trying to catch is 30%.
My luck sucks...
@Portal: If you thought Ep 1 was a cliffhanger, you'll be murdering children because of Episode 2 XD

Windows 7 Basic, or starter edition, has some limitations that are not present in other versions of Windows. The differences are covered in a fantastic Wikipedia article available here.
Don't worry though! The good news is Microsoft included an "Anytime Upgrade" option in Windows to allow you to upgrade your version of if you want/need these more advanced functions. If you go to the Start button and type in the search box "Anytime Upgrade" (without the quotation marks) you will get the Windows Anytime Upgrade tool.
This tool allows you to purchase, at a discounted price, the upgrade to a higher version of Windows 7. You can also enter a serial number from an upgrade disc purchased online or at a retail store to upgrade, too. Windows 7 Pro and Ultimate are common upgrades for people needing to connect to corporate networks (called domains), while Windows Home Premium is the popular upgrade for users of Windows Starter or Basic to gain all the functionality of Windows, minus enterprise and encryption services.
Hope this helps!

Have you ever looked at a film's credits and wondered what the difference was between the "story" written by these guys over here and the "screenplay" written by those guys over there? Often, the "story" in question used to be a proper screenplay in its own right, until someone else was hired to give it a bit of a polish, and by the time the finished film came out, it became impossible to say for sure which bits were the work of which people.
You can see something of this process whenever an old movie is remade; some of the more confounding plot twists in, say, last year's versions of The Stepford Wives and The Manchurian Candidate begin to make sense when you watch the original versions of those films and realize why and how the stories went in those directions. And when remakes go off in their own direction, it often says something revealing about the people that made them. But remakes are generally made many years after the originals — or, in the case of foreign-film adaptations like The Magnificent Seven, after a story has been transposed into a different culture — so the new films still tend to have an identity of their own.
So apart from the film's actual content — more on that in a moment — the most remarkable thing about Dominion: Prequel to The Exorcist is that, in tandem with last year's Exorcist: The Beginning, it provides a unique opportunity to see how tweaking a screenplay can produce a very different film, even when many of the same elements are in place.

Ariana Grande's ex accuses singer of cheating
Listen to Ariana Grande on iHeartRadio
Miley Cyrus isn't the only one receiving open letters this week.
Ariana Grande, the Nickelodeon actress-turned-pop singer, has found herself in a full-blown Twitter war with her ex-boyfriend, who has taken to the site to claim that she cheated on him.
Her ex is an up-and-coming Australian YouTube star named Jai Brooks, who is letting the world know his side of the story after Ariana recently announced her new relationship with Nathan Sykes from The Wanted.
Ariana's ex addresses Nathan directly in his letter, writing that he didn't "respect [his] relationship." The 18-year-old says he is heartbroken, unable to sleep and a "miserable wreck" because of Ariana's decision to leave him for Nathan.
Yes I was cheated on. Yes it does suck. Yes I was left for another man. And this happens everyday to so many (cont) http://t.co/oarZ8bnKKQ— Jai Brooks (@JaiBrooks1) October 7, 2013
But Ariana didn't take his claims laying down. She tweeted that she refuses to be "any man's press opportunity" and that she is "no longer afraid of [him] and [his] lies. She ended her rant by saying that she is "finally happy" and that "words can't hurt [her] anymore."
Woke up this morning in complete and utter shock... I guess I shouldn't be so surprised.— Ariana Grande (@ArianaGrande) October 7, 2013
You said to me if I didn't come back to you, you'd make me look bad to the entire world... I'm no longer afraid of you or your lies anymore.— Ariana Grande (@ArianaGrande) October 7, 2013
I'm going to be the lady my mother raised and carry myself with class and dignity... But I will never be any man's press opportunity.— Ariana Grande (@ArianaGrande) October 7, 2013
Girls... RESPECT YOURSELVES. Keep your head held high and speak only kind words. Know your truth... no one can ever take that away from you.— Ariana Grande (@ArianaGrande) October 7, 2013
It's always ok to defend yourself. My fans know what kind of person I am. Never let any man discredit u or the values you were raised with.— Ariana Grande (@ArianaGrande) October 7, 2013
I'm finally happy. Words can't hurt me anymore.— Ariana Grande (@ArianaGrande) October 7, 2013

While many retailers are still reeling from a rough winter, rising temperatures mean one thing—it's time to cut your losses and shift gears to summer product. From retro to futuristic, Dragon Alliance has you covered. Dragon has partnered with its surf team on a wide array of new frames and styles, as well as upgraded some of its classics with new colors and technologies for its tightest and techest line of shades ever. We caught up with their always-entertaining and insightful sunglasses product line manager, Hillary Balch, for a look at what this spring has in store.
What are the biggest changes we'll see in this year's line?
For the summer line, we're sprinkling in a few more colors as well as our new style, the Remix, based off of our number one selling style The Jam. We're looking forward to a strong summer building off our momentum we've had this season so far. Personally, this summer I'm really looking forward to the leopard print colorway we're releasing in the Remix and to finally getting a tan.
What are your three favorite styles? Is that like asking you to pick your favorite kid?
This is like asking me to pick my favorite kid. I love all of our styles so much. We spend so much time developing them, and then they finally go off into the real world and I'm sitting here hoping they make friends and play nice with all the other kids. Right now, my favorite styles are the new Viceroy, The Jam of course, and a new piece called the Regal that won't be dropping till later this year. But I'm special so I already have one.
The new Owen Wright looks really good – any good stories on working with Owen on this?
Owen was so great to work with, he was so excited the whole time and really wanted to be involved in the colors and graphics. He worked closely with myself and our art director Dave on getting the cartoon graphics on the inside dialed and really getting the overall vibe across that Owen was going for – an underwater, sketchy deep sea vibe with sharks and creepy little fish. We were loving the teal color so we tied it into the metal plaque on the side as well as the lens.
What makes these stand out?
Definitely the attention to detail on the inside graphics. Also, the pop of the teal color on the black frame is a nice surprise. The fact that it's Owen Wright's signature model doesn't hurt either.

/opt/nessus/nessusd &
I recently installed Nessus 3.2.0 in Backtrack 3. Here are the steps necessary to get it working. Most are identical to the 3.0.6 install guide at:
Download the Fedora Core 8 RPM's from:
Convert to TGZ :
Use the Slackware Package Tool to extract:Code:rpm2tgz Nessus-3.2.0-fc8.i386.rpm rpm2tgz NessusClient-3.2.0-fc8.i386.rpm
Install packages from the current directoryCode:pkgtool
Choose both Nessus-3.2.0-fc8.i386.tgz and NessusClient-3.2.0-fc8.i386.tgz
Now, configure the application:
This should get Nessus installed. Now, update your plugins. Make use you registered at the Nessus website. Use the code they emailed to you below.Code:cd /opt/ export PATH=$PATH:/opt/nessus/sbin:/opt/nessus/bin: cp /usr/lib/libssl.so /lib cp /usr/lib/libcrypto.so /lib cp /opt/nessus/lib/libnessus.so.3 /lib cp /opt/nessus/lib/libnessusrx.so.0 /lib cp /opt/nessus/lib/libpcap-nessus.so.3 /lib cd /lib ln libssl.so libssl.so.6 ln libcrypto.so libcrypto.so.6 nano /etc/ld.so.conf /opt/nessus/lib #add this line to the config file ldconfig /opt/nessus/sbin/nessus-mkcert /opt/nessus/sbin/nessus-adduser
Run the Nessus Server:Code:cd /opt/nessus/etc/nessus nessus-fetch --register XXX-YYY-ZZZ-VVV
Launch the Client:Code:/opt/nessus/sbin/nessusd
If you find any problems with the above tutorial, let me know so I can edit it. Thanks.Code:/opt/nessus/bin/NessusClient
should be
/opt/nessus/nessusd &
could you be a bit more specific cant find what you said needs to change sry
should beCode:Nessus-Client
My nessusd is in /opt/nessus/sbin
If you launch nessusd without any options, it can be killed once your done with the client by Ctrl-Z. However, if you do the -D then you have to:
You are correct about the NessusClient, not Nessus-Client. I've fixed it in the first post. Thanks!Code:ps aux | grep nessus kill PID
Thank you for that bit of information.
I like the bleeding edge, but I don't like blood loss
rpm2tgz nessus-3.2.0.... is running for a while and making a huge file. Shouldn't the tar be about the same size as the RPM?
relative to the rpm in size. You may have a corrupt rpm.
does anyone know whether these instructions work for bt2final?

Does water birth speed labour?
hi jane,
i have been reading about waterbirth & immersion during labour. I understand that the effects of labouring in water can help the cervix to dilate faster. Even after 8 babies my labours are still typically 12-15hrs long.my history of 3 vaginal births, 4 c/s & a vba4c make me 'high risk of uterine rupture'. is faster dilation a benefit or risk for someone with my 'overworked' uterus.
3rd February 2012 09:51 AM #2
Using water during labour helps to relax you and helps enable the right cocktail of labour hormones to be released, in turn helping labour to progress (the water has the additional benefit of decreasing the discomfort of labour). This is a natural and safe method of facilitating labour. Because the uterus isn't being artificially stimulated it will not increase the risk of uterine rupture. Have you read any books written by Dr Michel Odent? He has written extensively and talks a lot about labour hormones, the environment of birth and using water in labour. I think you'd find it very helpful.

text: If 18 year old Penelope Soto had just stayed a little more calm she would have been out on the streets after probably posting no bond after being arrested for possession of Xanax. Instead, she laughed when the judge asked her questions and just didn't seem to care she had been arrested. So, the judge set her bond at $5,000. When Penelope was flippant about it, the judge called her back and raised to $10,000. Then Penelope asked the Judge if he was serious and when he said yes, then she said, "F**k you." Yeah, for that she got 30 days in jail. You know what? It will probably help her get off Xanax.

Chevron still can't account for thousands of gallons of diesel fuel three weeks after a pipeline spill at the Great Salt Lake.
The latest update from the "Unified Command" said nearly 3,000 gallons remain in the soil, wetlands and water at Willard Bay, just south of the Bear River Migratory Bird Refuge.
Tuesday's report also reduced a previous estimate of how much diesel leaked. Around 21,000 gallons spilled out of a six-foot split in the pipe nearly three weeks ago roughly 6,000 gallons less than earlier projections according to the incident-oversight group, which includes Chevron, the Utah Division of Water Quality and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
"Cleanup and remediation activity continues to make steady improvements in restoring the area impacted by the diesel spill at Willard Bay, with a goal of reopening the Willard Bay North Marina and Park in early June," said the Unified Command in its fourth news release since the March 18 spill.
Chevron restarted the pipeline on March 30 after approval from the U.S. Department of Transportation's Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration.
Meanwhile, 167 workers continue removing diesel from the 7 acres affected, a spot west of Interstate 15 at the Willard Bay State Park North Marina that extends into the popular fishing and boating site, the adjacent wetlands and a large irrigation reservoir. Chevron is also excavating contaminated soil and replacing petroleum-coated vegetation and brush.
So far, the spill's biggest impact has been on six beavers that lived in the wetland lodges that initially helped block the diesel's flow into the bay. They are still recovering at a wildlife rehabilitation facility in Ogden.
Walt Baker, the state's top water-quality regulator, said Chevron has installed a drain to capture groundwater that appears to be leaching traces of petroleum into the bay below the water's surface. His agency is working with the Utah Department of Health on fish consumption guidelines for the popular catches at the state park despite the low level of contamination.
Baker's office expects to hand the pipeline company a violation notice by the week's end, he said. After two crude oil pipeline spills at Red Butte in 2010, the state fined Chevron $500,000 and ordered cleanup, long-term monitoring and $3 million in waterway projects.
"There are pollutants that have been discharged illicitly, without a permit," he said of the latest spill.
Tage Flint, general manager of the Weber Basin Water Conservancy District, is already pushing for long-term monitoring.
Although his district does not use the reservoir for drinking water, and no imminent danger to people or the environment is seen, Willard Reservoir is the district's largest water resource and might be needed someday for drinking water.
"It seems to us they are on the right track" with the cleanup," he said. "But it's that subsurface stuff that we're worried about."

The newest member of the Canadiens describes himself as "a pretty simple player."
"What you see is what you get," defenceman Douglas Murray told Canadiens.com on Friday, a day after being signed to a one-year, $1.5-million free-agent contract. "In order for me to be successful, I need to defend really well, number one, and (I need to) be a big, physical presence out there.
"I definitely have a (will) to win and I bring a lot of competitiveness," added the 6-foot-3, 245-pound Swede. "It's nothing flashy; I don't think anyone has ever used that word to describe me as a player. I'm a steady player and the excitement probably comes from the physicality department.
"I have a lot of experience with (penalty killing) and I've played a lot of different systems. Obviously, you need great penalty killers and people who are willing to block shots, which I definitely am. It's important to have a lot of pride in killing penalties. I love shutting the opposition down – maybe it's because I've never scored many goals, but I think I almost enjoy that more."
Josh Gorges, who played with Murray earlier in his career with the San Jose Sharks, was thrilled to become his teammate again.
"Welcome to former and new teammate Douglas Murray!!!" Gorges tweeted. "You guys are gonna love this beast in #Mtl #BigRig"
Gorges, who got married earlier this summer to Maggie Morrison in Hawaii, will be in Washington state on Saturday for the wedding of goalie Carey Price and his fiancée, Angela Webber. Price won't have time for a honeymoon, since he will report the next day to Team Canada's Olympic orientation camp in Calgary, along with P.K. Subban, who will also be at the goaltender's wedding.

Kavanagh to Co-Chair Public Hearing on Implementation of New Voting Machines
October 20, 2009
On October 22, 2009, the Assembly Subcommittee on Election Day Operations and Voter Disenfranchisement will hold a public hearing, in conjunction with the Assembly Committees on Election Law, Education, and Libraries and Education Technology. Assemblymember Brian Kavanagh, as Chair of the Subcommittee, will co-chair the hearing, the first such hearing since he was appointed to chair the Subcommittee. Thursday's hearing will address the impact of the enacted 2009-2010 State Budget on New York's implementation of the Help America Vote Act of 2002, and its ramifications for the State Board of Elections, local boards of elections, and other public entities that conduct elections. Prime topics for discussion will include New York's new paper ballot and optical scanner voting systems, already in use in many counties upstate, and whether these technologies can be used efficiently in school board and fire district elections. Anyone is welcome to attend and may request a chance to present testimony by notifying the Assembly. The hearing will begin at 10:30 a.m. in the Assembly Hearing Room on the 19th Floor at 250 Broadway, across the street from City Hall, in Manhattan. Questions or comments about the hearing, or about election operations or voting rights issues in general, may be directed to Ames Grawert in Kavanagh's district office at 212-979-9696.

SolarWorld is GREEN BRAND 2015/2016
The GREEN BRANDS certificate is presented exclusively to brands with a proven track record of environmentally sustainable actions both inside and outside the company.
Sustainable engagement
For combining economic success with social responsibility and environmental protection, SolarWorld was awarded the German Sustainability Price.
SolarWorld is a Changemaker
SolarWorld is a member of the Changemaker initiative of the Utopia Foundation. With the signing of the Changemaker Manifesto, SolarWorld openly discloses its global sustainability goals.
Looking ahead
SolarWorld Sustainability as a principle
It's become a household word – everyone is talking about sustainability. But what does it actually mean? A quick look at the dictionary reveals that the word "sustainability" has its origins in forest management. It describes the principle that "the number of trees that are cut down cannot exceed the number that can grow back". But what does this have to do with solar energy?
We are commited to sustainability
The way we live leaves its mark on the planet. The world's population is growing and consuming more and more energy. The result is scarce resources, environmental degradation and climate change. It is time to take sustainable action. It is time for solar energy.
Sustainability has always been extremely important to SolarWorld, right from the outset. You can find more information about our wide range of sustainability management activities on the following pages:
SolarWorld is a Changemaker
Since February 2014, SolarWorld is member of the same-named Utopia foundation and is measured against ambitious sustainability goals in 10 areas. This self-commitment is at the same time the sustainability strategy of the SolarWorld group. Part of it are the group's environmental goals until 2020. The Changemaker Manifesto was signed by the entire SolarWorld Board and thereby is – besides the SolarWorld vision – a personal commitment that emphasizes the significance of sustainable action for the SolarWorld group: SolarWorld stands for real values. In January 2015, SolarWorld published/disclosed its first Changemaker progress report.

My seniors are (or, rather, should be) engaged in a research project that will allow them to write an analysis paper on The Handmaid's Tale. Their purpose is to link Atwood's dystopian novel to current (or recent) events, whether here or in other countries, in meaningful and logical ways. Given what's happening in politics lately, I thought it was a paper that could pretty much write itself. I don't want it to write itself, though, so I've been spending some time with the kids going over how to do ethical research.
The problem when I was a kid was finding information – we needed to be taught where to look for the things we needed to know. The problem for my students (and my children) is finding good information – there is so much that is so readily available (and is so often ridiculously unreliable), that teaching kids how to sift through the sketchy stuff to find valid sources is a priority in my teaching about research.
I was thinking about this tonight when I got into it with a facebook friend about the factual validity of something that was posted on her wall. On the surface it was no big deal – it was a clearly partisan bit of sarcasm and anger and was clearly intended as such – but it sparked a conversation about the veracity of the information that we bounce around the internet.
One of the things that I need – not just want, but need – for my students to understand is how desperately vital it is that they learn to think critically about the things that get presented to them as fact. It seems to me that we've gotten to a point (or, perhaps it has always been thus and I'm just noticing it more) where it's become accepted practice to pick and choose the details one wants from a given set of information so that one can prove whatever point one is trying to forward. It doesn't matter that the whole of the set indicates something entirely contrary to what is being reported – as long as items A and B support a particular viewpoint, items C through Z can be conveniently downplayed (or outright ignored).
Facts can be very inconvenient things. They can challenge a previously held belief, they can force a reevaluation of a prejudice, and they can seriously hinder an argument. Facts can compel us to rethink the way we see ourselves and can rattle what we think of as foundational beliefs. That can be scary; so scary that a lot of people are just as happy to not do it at all.
It's important to me that my students not be intimidated by the idea that the facts might force them to rethink the way they see the world – or the way they see themselves. It can be profoundly uncomfortable – threatening and existentially terrifying, even – to have one's thesis (or world view) refuted by the facts, but my hope is that I can raise my students to understand that the mark of a strong and mature intellect is being able to adjust one's thinking when the evidence indicates that an adjustment is necessary.

New World Symphony Presents Centennial Tribute to John Cage, 2/8-10
One of the 20th century's most influential, innovative and provocative artists will be the subject of a special birthday tribute over the weekend of February 8-10, 2013, when the New World Symphony, America's Orchestral Academy (NWS), presents Making the Right Choices: A John Cage Centennial Celebration at the New World Center (500 17th Street).
As part of its 25th anniversary season under the direction of NWS co-founder and artistic director Michael Tilson Thomas, NWS will offer three spectacular performances of works by Cage featuring a stellar roster of guest artists, including new-music vocalists Joan La Barbara and Meredith Monk, soprano Jessye Norman, pianist Marc-André Hamelin and dancers from the New World School for the Arts performing choreography by Merce Cunningham.
Laura Kuhn, executive director of the John Cage Trust, will serve as the advisor to this centennial celebration. The weekend festival will be rounded out with film screenings, panel discussions, readings and appearances by additional artists to be announced.
The title summarizes the festival's progression through the music of John Cage, from early in his career, when he made musical choices and notated music, to the middle and end of his career, when he transitioned to creating musical structures for musicians to make the choices within the works, and creating compositions that employ the use of structured chance operations to inform the performance of the works.
The opening program on Friday, February 8 at 7:30 pm, A John Cage Journey, will focus on the early works of Cage's career and will be presented on the main and satellite stages of the New World Center, with the artists performing amid special visual projections, theatrical sets, lighting effects and video recordings of Cage himself reading from his collection of one-minute stories, Indeterminacy. The performance will feature ten works spanning the years from 1939 through 1959, including Imaginary Landscape 1 (1939), Living Room Music (1940), Aria (1958) and Water Walk (1959). Featured artists on the program will include Michael Tilson Thomas as conductor and pianist; vocalists Joan La Barbara and Meredith Monk; soprano Jessye Norman, pianist Marc-André Hamelin and dancers from New World School of the Arts performing choreography by Merce Cunningham.
On Saturday, February 9 at 7:30 pm, Michael Tilson Thomas will lead NWS in a program titled John Cage: Song and Dance, featuring a special performance of the orchestral version of Cage's Cheap Imitation (1969), written for the Merce Cunningham dance company. Brandon Collwes and Andrea Weber, solo dancers from Cunningham's celebrated company, will perform a portion of the original Cunningham choreography (Second Hand), while a newly produced video derived from archival films of the Cunningham troupe will reflect the remaining portions of the dance. The second half of the program will feature a theatrical presentation of selections from Song Books (1970), featuring Meredith Monk, Joan La Barbara, and Jessye Norman, alongside a simultaneous performance by Marc-André Hamelin of the solo piano work Winter Music.
The final performance of the weekend, on Sunday, February 10 at 7:30 pm, will begin with Dance/4 Orchestras (1982), presented as a collage of four small orchestras inside and outside the concert hall, enhanced by a specially designed video collage derived from Cage's graphic work. Marc-André Hamelin will perform selections from Cage's notoriously difficult Etudes Australes, a body of 32 indeterminate works for solo piano that use star charts as source material. The finale, the large-scale improvisatory work Renga (1975-76), will be played by the New World Symphony with Merce Cunningham choreography (Field Dances) performed by dancers from the New World School of the Arts.
Tickets for the New World Symphony's presentation of Making the Right Choices: A John Cage Centennial Celebration begin at $30 for each performance and are available by calling the box office at 305-673-3331. To purchase tickets online visit www.nws.edu/JohnCage, or to learn more about the New World Symphony, America's Orchestral Academy, visit www.nws.edu.

Contact Center Services Procurement Tool Kit, Unveiled
May 2, 2006
Contact: Betsy Steele, (202) 501-1231
WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. General Services Administration's (GSA) USA Services today unveiled the Emergency Procurement Tool Kit, a comprehensive user friendly guide on FirstContact, an Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract vehicle allowing federal agencies to obtain immediate vendor support to respond to citizen inquiries during disasters and emergencies. GSA's USA Services, a Presidential E-Gov initiative, manages FirstContact.
The Tool Kit provides value by delivering all necessary documents customized to FirstContact in a centralized facility. With FirstContact, agencies can quickly establish contact center(s) to provide citizens with information on a variety of issues, including where to locate relief in emergency situations. For example, during the Katrina response and recovery period in the Fall of 2005, FEMA used FirstContact to respond to 1.5 million calls and emails from hurricane victims.
"President Bush's Management Agenda calls for a more efficient, citizen-centric Federal government," said M.J. Pizzella, Associate Administrator of GSA's Office of Citizen Services and Communications. "The FirstContact Emergency Procurement Took Kit reflects GSA"s commitment to offering services that make government agencies more responsive and accessible to citizens."
The Tool Kit includes, among other documents, examples of an Interagency Agreement, Statement of Work, Source Selection Plan and two FirstContact case studies. It can be viewed online at www.usaservices.gov/emergency.htm. The Tool Kit and recently released Cost Calculator (www.usaservices.gov/calculator.htm) fulfill USA Services' mandate to provide government-wide leadership to improve agency response to public inquiries.
GSA is a centralized, federal procurement, property management, policy development and information provision agency, created by Congress to improve government efficiency and help federal agencies better serve the public. In this role, GSA acquires products and services on behalf of federal agencies; plays a key role in developing and implementing governmentwide policies; provides services and solutions for the office operations of more than one million federal workers; and encourages a citizen-centric relationship with government by providing a single "point of entry" to the information and services citizens need in a timeframe they can appreciate. This allows citizens to receive accurate, timely and consistent answers and information, and helps federal agencies better respond to citizen inquiries.

How can I make my toddler drink breastmilk and go back to breasfeeding?
I have two boys, one is 2 years old and the other one is 2 months old. I'm currently exclusively breastfeeding my 2 month old. Now that I have a good enough supply of breastmilk, I'd like to know if it is possible to breastfeed my older son again. How can I make my toddler like the taste of breastmilk and go back to breastfeeding?

That's awesome you are able to nurse your new baby and all is going well.
Have you offered breast milk in a sippy cup to your toddler?
Does your toddler seem interesting in nursing, mentioned he would like to try to latch on?
I suggest offering pump or expressed milk in a sippy cup to your son and see his reaction. Make sure its room temperature or maybe even try warming it a bit. Or you may find that he likes it cold.
When was the last time he latched on?
Go with your sons lead, ask him if he wants to nurse and give him the chance to smell your breasts and latch on. Maybe after the baby has fed you and your son can spend some quiet time figuring it out again.
Another thought is to take a bath with the toddler and see what happens.
Let us know if you have any other questions or concerns. I'm sure with some gentle encouragement he will take milk in a cup and possibly re-latch again.

Hi sunnymumof5! Thank you so much for replying. I stopped breast feeding my toddler when he was 8 months old. He seems interested with breast feeding when I'm nursing the baby but when I asked him if he wanted to try drinking milk from mommy's breast, he said "no". I think he's just curious with how baby gets his milk. So I guess re-latch will not be possible now.
I also tried offering breast milk in a sippy cup but he doesn't seem to like it. I'm thinking if it's alright to mix breast milk with regular milk? I plan on introducing breast milk to him by mixing it to his milk. Initially putting small amount of breast milk in it then gradually adding more until the time that he'll be drinking pure breast milk.

Could you let him watch you express some milk into a cup for him, maybe a few sips and see how that goes? I think it would be ok to mix breast milk with some chocolate powder or in a smoothie with fruit.
I like your idea of adding half and half and then gradually offering more breast milk.
I assume you are pumping as well.
I applaud your efforts to get breast milk into your toddler. It will help with his immune system.

Dear mom me,
I see you have had some wonderful advice from sunnymumof5 above
You may want to try some of these fun breastmilk recipes.
I also would like to congratulate your commitment to helping your two year old try some breastmilk again; it really is great stuff for two year olds as well as babies.
Warm wishes,

Hi sunnymumof5!
Thank you so much for your reply!
Yes, I pump milk too. My toddler watches me when I pump. He is so curious! I would offer the milk to him but he doesn't like to drink it when he sees where it came from. That's why I thought I should mix it with his milk. Mixing the breast milk with a smoothie with fruit is a great idea!
Thank you for being supportive of my efforts to make my toddler drink breast milk. I know it would be good to him.

I'm excited to try those breastmilk recipes. They look really fun! It's interesting that breast milk can be used as ingredient for these great recipes.
Thank you so much LJ! I really want to extend the benefits of breast milk to my toddler.

Hi Mom Me,
You've had some great suggestions from SunnyMumOf5 and LJ!
I, too, found the link to breastmilk recipes interesting. I would encourage you to use breastmilk raw or slightly warmed whenever possible because when you heat milk, you destroy many of the beneficial enzymes and lowers the nutritional value.
If your 2 year old likes popsicles you could blend breastmilk with banana and any other fruit he likes (strawberries, blueberries, peaches, mango, etc.) in a blender and pour that mixture into popsicle molds. If making ice pops using paper cups, insert the wooden sticks after the pops are firm enough to hold the sticks upright, at least 1 hour, depending on the size of the cups.

WATCH: Coldplay unveils mysterious new song 'Midnight'
Listen to Coldplay on iHeartRadio
Coldplay's fans are still mostly in the dark when it comes to the band's new song "Midnight."
With little warning or explanation, Chris Martin and company tweeted a link to the track's video Tuesday at midnight Mongolia time. The clip matches the song's dark and chilly tone with black-and-white photo-negative images of the band members wandering through a forest.
The guys have yet to announce whether "Midnight" will be part of a new album, which would be their first since 2011's Mylo Xyloto. Coldplay contributed the Golden Globe-nominated song "Atlas" to the Hunger Games: Catching Fire soundtrack last fall, but so far there's been no hint of a proper sixth studio album until now.
Coldplay will have an opportunity to share a few more details about their 2014 plans when they head to Austin, Texas next month for the iTunes Festival at South by Southwest. They're set to open the five-day event on March 11th.
Check out "Midnight" below:

JOINT BASE LEWIS-McCHORD, Wash. (AP) -- Attorneys will wrap up a preliminary hearing against Staff Sgt. Robert Bales, who is accused of massacring 16 Afghan villagers during a predawn rampage earlier this year.
Closing arguments from Army prosecutors and Bales' attorneys will be made Tuesday. In the coming weeks, the investigating officer, Col. Lee Deneke, (deh-neh-KEE) will decide whether to recommend court-martial, with the ultimate decision to be made by Bales' brigade command. Bales, a 39-year-old father of two from Lake Tapps, Wash., could face the death penalty.
If a court-martial takes place, it will be held at the Washington state base south of Seattle.
The preliminary hearing, known as an Article 32, included testimony from fellow soldiers who say Bales returned to the base after the March killings covered in blood, as well as Afghan witnesses, including children, who testified via video from Afghanistan.

DAVE Watts MP has called for tougher measures against under age drinkers and their parents – and reckons under 18s should be taken into temporary care if found under the influence of alcohol.
The MP for St Helens North called for stringent new measures to tackle under age boozing following a meeting with Chris Armitt, the town's new chief superintendent, last week.
Watts told the Star that too many parents turn a blind eye to their children's drinking and that children as young as 14 were being allowed to stay out late and drink alcohol in parks and residential areas.
He has called on St Helens Council to join forces with the police to introduce a 'stay safe' scheme, in which drunken children are taken into care before being collected by their parents from a safe central location.
The child and the parents would then face questioning about how the youngster got hold of the booze.
Watts reported that similar schemes had reduced under aged drinking and anti social behaviour in communities up and down the country.
He argued that the ploy would hold parents more responsible for the actions of their children, help protect vulnerable kids and help police identify off licences which are selling booze to under 18s.

Has anyone gotten this card to work with BT3 yet? I know most of their other cards are excellent, and I was just curious if this card works yet, or if it's something that will be working with a patch or a future release. Thanks for your time!
Nevermind, I went ahead and got an SRC that is supported by the current drivers. I'm sure in time the SR71 will be supported in BT3, but until then, I'll use the SRC. I will see if I can get it to work still, and if I can get it working, I'll post here the results I find.
