More concretely, part of the research will involve the analysis and development of authentication protocols in specific settings. This will include investigating resistance of both existing and novel protocols against different types of attacks, theoretically and experimentally. In addition to investigating established settings, such as RFID authentication, the research will also explore more general authentication problems, such as those that arise in the context of trust in social networks, smartphone applications and collaborative data processing. This will be done by grounding the work in a generalised decision-making framework. The project should result in the development of theory and authentication mechanisms for noisy, constrained settings that strike an optimal balance between reliable authentication, privacy-preservation and resource consumption. Some previous research related to this research project can be found here: http://lasecwww.epfl.ch/~katerina/Publications.html
Applicants for the position shall have a Master's Degree or corresponding in Computer Science, Informatics, Telecommunications, Information Security and Cryptography or in a related discipline. A master\\\'s degree in information security and cryptography is a bonus.
Experience in one or more of cryptography, probability and statistics, decision and game theory are ben
Traceable attribute-based signatures add anonymity revocation mechanisms to attribute-based signatures whereby a special tracing authority equipped with a secret key is capable of revealing the identity of the signer. Such a feature is important in settings where accountability and abuse prevention are required.
In this work, we first provide a formal security model for traceable attribute-based signatures. Our focus is on the more practical case where attribute management is distributed among different authorities rather than relying on a single central authority.
By specializing our model to the single attribute authority setting, we overcome some of the shortcomings of the existing model for the same setting.
Our second contribution is a generic construction for the primitive which achieves a strong notion of security. Namely, it achieves CCA anonymity and its security is w.r.t.\\ adaptive adversaries. Moreover, our framework permits expressive signing polices.
Finally, we provide some instantiations of the primitive whose security reduces to falsifiable intractability assumptions and without relying on idealized assumptions.
To advance the Development of Tools for the Design of Secure Embedded Systems, we are searching for the closest possible point in time a

Encryption [28], and evolved into Message Locked Encryption [12], strives to solve this problem. The latest work, DupLESS [11], proposes a server-aided architecture that provides the strongest privacy. The DupLESS architecture relies on a key server to help the clients generate encryption keys that result in convergent ciphertexts. In this paper, we first provide a rigorous proof of security, in the random oracle model, for the DupLESS architecture which is lacking in the original paper. Our proof shows that using additional secret, other than the data itself, for generating encryption keys achieves the best possible security under current deduplication paradigm.We then introduce a distributed protocol that eliminates the need for a key server and allows less managed systems such as P2P systems to enjoy the high security level. Implementation and evaluation show that the scheme is both robust and practical.

Just after lunch, user calls pilot fish to report there's no Internet in this remote office.
"I ask if there are any lights on the routers and switches," says fish. "She says no, and says nothing has come back on after the power outage.
"I ask if the UPS, little white box that things are plugged into, is on. No, she says, it's not and it won't come on."
Fish hasn't dealt with this remote office before, so he asks around for the standard protocol. Turns out the standard protocol is that he drives the three and a half hours to the site in a company car -- and he needs to leave promptly, as it's already 1 p.m.
After an hour packing up all the gear and backup gear to replace the entire equipment set on-site if necessary, fish heads out.
But before he gets far, he gets another call: Another remote site that's three hours out and just a little out of his way is also having Internet problems.
He diverts to the second site. He takes a quick look at the networking gear and asks if anyone knows what happened to the cable that used to be plugged into this circuit. The only answer: "Someone moved it." Fifteen minutes of crimping late, fish is getting high-fives for restoring the Internet.
Back in the car, he's welcomed at the second site by a crowd of users very happy to see him. He's shown to the networking closet, where he hits the power button on the UPS.
"Five minutes of testing later, it was more high-fives and kudos for bringing the Internet back up," fish says.
"Eight hours of driving for less than 30 minutes of work.
"Best. Overtime. Ever."

His eyes had already the keenness of a falcon, and so straight and strong he grew that the heart of King Alf was filled with joy.
But his added weight had evidently done nothing to his keenness of mind.
He opened up his heart to Martin, showed with what keenness and with what enormous planning he had made the store.
The expression of keenness on a deal was not characteristic of him alone.
Page 175: "observavation" changed to "observation" (In old bears curiosity is accompanied with a keenness of observation).
The sheriff was impressed by the other's keenness of observation.
But afterwards he continued to look at me in silence with a keenness and curiosity I did not understand.
When he was shown into the lawyer's room, he exhibited a greater air of keenness than usual.
His portrait exhibits a face in which quickness and keenness of intellect are strongly marked.
Of his keenness of observation take the following illustration.
c.1200, from Old English cene "bold brave," later "clever, wise," from Proto-Germanic *kan- "be able to" (see can). Original prehistoric senses seem to have been both "brave" and "skilled;" cognate with Old Norse kænn "skillful, wise," Middle Dutch coene "bold," Dutch koen, Old High German kuon "pugnacious, strong," German kühn "bold, daring." Sense of "eager" is from mid-14c. The meaning "sharp" is peculiar to English: of blades and edges early 13c., of sounds c.1400, of eyesight c.1720. A popular word of approval in teenager and student slang from c.1900.
"lament," 1811, from Irish caoinim "I weep, wail, lament," from Old Irish coinim "I wail." Related: Keened; keening. As a noun from 1830.

Republicans have happened upon a felicitous new strategy for reviving their party from its depressed state: They need only think happy thoughts.
At a retreat for Republican leaders last month, former House speaker Newt Gingrich told them to "learn to be a happy party" and a "cheerful" one, and Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus said they should be a party "that smiles." Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal told his fellow Republicans to talk about "just how incredibly bright America's future can be."

The Institute for Jewish & Community Research's study of American college faculty offers the reader a unique portrait of today's academy. It illustrates the existence of a dominant political ideology on campus that encompasses views of American foreign, domestic, and trade policies. The majority of faculty are bound by a set of beliefs that could compromise the core mission of the academy to provide unbiased teaching and scholarship.
"The Political Beliefs and Behavior of College Faculty" is an invaluable addition to the literature about higher education. The authors of this volume assert themselves as defenders of higher education, concerned less with the liberal bias on campus than with the existence of any ideology that diminishes the ability of the university to provide the highest caliber teaching and scholarship.
The authors call for the academy to embrace its own values and tenets. They urge all stakeholders in higher education to ensure that the truest purposes of the university are protected against the paralysis of an entrenched political monoculture.
This monograph is intended for anyone concerned with the future of higher education: students, faculty, parents, trustees, alumni, taxpayers and government. It is the first of three volumes and will be followed by reports on the religious beliefs of college faculty and faculty attitudes about Israel and the Middle East.

As the days get shorter and colder, I've been playing it safe with dark, solid colors. I've demonstrated this before, but a key way to keep solid colors interesting is by incorporating texture.
This is the best fitting skirt I own from Ann Taylor, but it's still a little long, so I have the waist hiked up high. The length is understandable, as petite sizing is for women 5'4" and under, whereas I'm a mere 5 feet. The measurements when lying flat are 12.25" across the waist, 16" across the hips, and 20.5" in length.
Several sizes are already sold out online, but if you're interested in this skirt, you can check in-store. The stackable 30% off code in this post was from a snail mail flyer coupon that I also got in the mail - so check your mail to see if you can use it in-store on top of the 40% off sale.

It's time for the Music City matchup. The Arizona Cardinals travel to LP Field in Nashville to face the Tennessee Titans on Sunday afternoon.
This is a huge game for the Red Birds as they try and keep their playoff hopes alive. Let's take a look at their matchup:
Tennessee (5-8)
The Titans, losers of seven of their last nine, start two rookies on their offensive line (Brian Schwenke and first round pick Chance Warmack) so they have to be prepared for the pressure Arizona will dial up from their front seven, especially John Abraham. The Titans will try and establish the run behind speedy Chris Johnson and power back Shonn Greene. Johnson ranks 13th in the NFL with 820 rushing yards and he's added 277 receiving yards – he's very dangerous on screen passes because of his dynamic speed. He has scored eight total touchdowns. Greene is used quite often as a goal-line back.
Tennessee's quarterback is the bearded Ryan Fitzpatrick, the former Buffalo Bill. The veteran signal-caller has thrown nine touchdown passes with eight interceptions since taking over for injured starter Jake Locker. One of his favorite targets is tight end Delanie Walker (45-454-5), who is expected to return to play after missing last week with a concussion. The Cards have had trouble covering tight ends this season. Arizona's Patrick Peterson should be matched up on Kendall Wright, who has 73 receptions for 857 yards and two touchdowns to lead the Titans' aerial attack.
The Titans rank 11th in the league in pass defense and have allowed the fewest TD passes in the NFL. In contrast, the Titans have really struggled against the run, ranking 21st in the NFL. Only the Washington Redskins allow more rushing scores, which bodes very well for Arizona running backs Rashard Mendenhall and Andre Ellington.
Arizona (8-5)
The big news this week from Glendale is the loss of rookie free safety Tyrann Mathieu, who underwent surgery yesterday to repair two torn ligaments in his left knee. The LSU product suffered the injury last week against the Rams and will be sorely missed in the secondary. He'll hopefully be ready for training camp next summer.
Carson Palmer recovered nicely from his elbow injury and completed 27 of 32 passes for 269 yards and a TD (to Larry Fitzgerald) last week. If the offensive line, which has been better of late, gives the veteran quarterback adequate time to throw, his results are much better. Fitzgerald (67-774-10) is having another Pro Bowl season. Michael Floyd has been battling ankle and shoulder injuries but should be ready for this vital contest. Tight end Rob Housler (groin) has missed a few practices this week and is listed as questionable.
While Mendenhall and Ellington should take advantage of Tennessee's porous rush defense, the Titans should run up against a brick wall in Arizona's run defense which ranks third in the NFL, allowing just 84.5 YPG. In fact, the Red Birds are fifth in overall defense, allowing only 312 yards per game. Abraham had three sacks and a safety last week against the Rams and was named NFC Defensive Player of the week. Expect the veteran pass rusher to dial up the heat on Fitzgerald in a big way.
Prediction: Cardinals 24, Titans 16. Too much Abraham and Fitzgerald for the Titans to handle. No Music City Miracle this time around.

Kosovo Youth Speaks out
Prishtinë/Priština, 20 October 2010 – The Kosovo Stability Initiative (IKS), in partnership with UNICEF Office in Kosovo and with the support of the Luxembourg Government, launched the youth opinion poll 'Unleashing Change: Voices of Kosovo's Youth 2010'.
Kosovo has the youngest population in Europe and the poorest economy in the region. Every fourth person falls into the 15 to 24 year age group, 73 percent of whom are unemployed. While many agree that the future of Kosovo lies in the hands of young people, Kosovo youth occupies very little place in the policies that determine their future. Education, youth empowerment and employment remain key challenges on Kosovo's path towards European integration. Kosovo needs to invest more in its youth to be a competitive economy in the wider European market.
The study explores the current situation of young people in Kosovo, putting together their views, experiences and frustrations in terms of education, employment, participation in decision-making processes, and future perspectives. In doing so, the 'Voices of Kosovo's Youth 2010' report aims at introducing young people at the center of the debate on Kosovo's future, serving as an advocacy tool for identifying gaps and directing efforts towards adapting the education system according to market requirements, identifying opportunities for youth employment and finding channels for youth representation and participation in decision- making.
The launching event saw the participation of key stakeholder and represented an opportunity for governmental institution, international organizations, as well as civil society actors at large to come to terms with the challenges of the Kosovo youths and to create a gateway for the designs of policies and practices that will meet the needs of these young people in a bid to secure a better future for Kosovo.
The launch of the youth opinion poll 'Unleashing Change: Voices of Kosovo's Youth 2010' takes place under the umbrella of the Poverty Eradication Week 2010 (18 – 25 October) – 'Only With Your Voice and Action, Together we can End Poverty'.

WHEN Alan Milne speculatively attended an arm wrestling taster session 10 years ago he never dreamed he would one day be taking on the best in the world – and beating them.
But earlier this month, Alan, of Blunsdon, took home a bronze medal at the Armwrestling World Championships in Gdynia, Poland after being included in a 15-man Team GB squad.
The 53-year-old battled against opponents from all over the world to bring the medal home.
"I don't think it settled in until some time later," said the team leader at Catalent Pharma Solutions in Swindon.
"When I first went out there I didn't think I didn't have too many expectations, but after winning my first couple of wrestles I began to think it was a possibility.
"I'm absolutely thrilled to have won it. It means a lot."
Performing in front a large crowd, Alan overcame 14 other opponents in the under-90kg Grand Masters division to come out in third place. He competed for two days, having to use a different arm on each day.
He was awarded the medal on a podium, something which a decade ago would never have crossed his mind.
Alan said: "I've been arm wrestling for about ten years.
"Julien Cini, the former British champion, was holding an open day locally for people to come along and find out a bit about the sport.
"I went a long with a friend just to see what it was about and now here I am. When I started out I never thought for a second I would go this far.
"It's a great sport. I've travelled all over the place and it's a close knit group so I've made some good friends."
It may not be the most supported sport in the country, but Great Britain enjoyed a degree of success at the championships.
As well as Alan's bronze, the 15-man team also picked up a gold and a silver, in a tournament of more than 1,200 competitors.
While many hold the misconception that armwrestling simply requires arm strength, Alan says it requires many skills and overall fitness.
To reach his current standard has required years of training and many hundreds of hours in the gym.
Alan said: "You need an overall core strength throughout your whole body as well as skill and technique.
"It isn't just about using your arm to push the opponents down.
"Normally we do two gym sessions each week and then two sessions on the table each week. This drops to one table session a week before big tournaments because of the recovery time needed."
Despite his success, Alan already has his sights set on gold at next year's championships in Lithuania.
"I still have things I can improve on and with every wrestle you learn something new," he said.
"I think with more training I can certainly go for a higher medal. First though I have to qualify through the British Championships."
If anybody would like to take up the sport, Alan or any of the UK's leading arm wrestlers can be contacted on the country's leading arm wrestling forum at rossendalearm wrestling.co.uk.

Docket Management
Docket: 02N-0209 - Request for Comment on First Amendment Issues
Comment Number: EC -266
Accepted - Volume 4
Comment Record
Ms. Jackie Denig
2002-07-29 16:06:52
Ms. Jackie Denig
Comments for FDA General
1. Are there arguments for regulating speech about drugs more comprehensively than, for example, about dietary supplements? What must an administrative record contain to sustain such a position? In particular, could FDA sustain a position that certain promotional speech about drugs is inherently misleading, unless it complies with FDA requirements? Does anything turn on whether the speech is made to learned intermediaries or to consumers? What is the evidentiary basis of such a distinction?
FDA could insist that dietary supplements have assays on their products.. to test their validity... I do NOT want doctors to be responsible for dietary supplements... that is like telling us we can't EAT without the doctors permission.. where is our freedom ??
2. Is FDA's current position regarding direct-to-consumer and other advertisements consistent with empirical research on the effects of those advertisements, as well as with relevant legal authority? What are the positive and negative effects, if any, of industry's promotion of prescription drugs, biologics, and/or devices? Does the current regulatory approach and its implementation by industry lead to over-prescription of drugs? Do they increase physician visits or patient compliance with medication regimes? Do they cause patient visits that lead to treatment for under-diagnosed diseases? Does FDA's current approach and its implementation by industry lead to adequate treatment for under-diagnosed diseases? Do they lead to adequate patient understanding of the potential risks associated with use of drugs? Does FDA's current approach and its implementation by industry create any impediments to the ability of doctors to give optimal medical advice or prescribe optimal treatment?
Make the nutritional companies provide studies and possible side effects if they advirtise a particular nutrient. I can't believe all of the advirtising that goes on for drugs with ALL he side effects and people still want to take them.
3. May FDA distinguish claims concerning conventional foods from those relating to dietary supplements, taking into account limits on claims that can be made about foods in the Nutrition Labeling and Education Act, 21 U.S.C. 301, 321, 337, 343, 371? What must an administrative record contain to sustain or deny claims on food labels? How can information best be presented in a succinct but non-misleading fashion? To what extent do assertions in claims need qualifications or disclaimers added to the label to avoid any misconceptions that consumers may draw? Is there a basis to believe that consumers approach claims about conventional foods and dietary supplements differently?
Yes, conventional foods (processed foods) are killing us. SUGAR especially.. it is in everything !! Dietary supplements are a choice that people are allowed to make. I wish GRAS had been out when sugar was created.. it wouldn't pass. Processed foods are hard to regulate
4. Should disclaimers be required to be in the same (or smaller or larger) size of type and given equal prominence with claims? Is there any relevant authority or social science research on this issue?
disclaimers should be the same size
9. Are there any regulations, guidance, policies, and practices FDA should change, in light of governing First Amendment authority?
Let the public choose their own dietary supplements. FDA has a tough job but don't rule that only doctors can handle dietary supplements and vitamins etc.. that is NOT proper.. just make supplement companies provide assays and prove their products DON'T kill you... there is a reason a drug is regulated.,.. drugs KILL at high enough doses...

(CNSNews.com) – The head of the Federal Communications Commission refused to say if he agrees with the FCC's Chief Diversity Officer Mark Lloyd that freedom of speech is an "exaggeration" and that concerns about free speech serve only as a "distraction" from policy debates.
FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski, after testifying at a congressional hearing on texting while driving Wednesday, was asked whether he agreed with Lloyd's views on the First Amendment.
Instead of answering the question, Genachowski said he would rather focus on drivers who are distracted by text-messaging.
CNSNews.com: Your Chief Diversity Office, Mark Lloyd, wrote in 2006 that freedom of speech had become an exaggeration and that free speech concerns served to distract from policy debates. Do you agree with those statements?
Genachowski: We're here today to talk about distracted driving, and today is a day to focus attention on that issue and that's what we've done.
Lloyd made the comments in his 2006 book "A Prologue to a Farce: Communication and Democracy in America." In the book, Lloyd alleges that communications policy has been rigged to serve the interests of international corporations, and he said the First Amendment has fallen prey to their machinations.
"The news media in America most people rely upon, whether newspaper or television, is first and foremost a space for advertisements," Lloyd wrote. "In other words, private corporations determine whether the people acquire information needed to govern themselves based in large part on whether the investment in resources is profitable."
Lloyd argued that because newspapers and cable news outlets are privately owned, free speech itself has been "warped" to protect "global corporations" and to stop government from implementing democratic policies, despite the fact that most major news corporations are publicly traded.
"Thus, the purpose of free speech is warped to protect global corporations and block rules that would promote democratic governance," Lloyd wrote.
Lloyd concluded that because of corporate domination and manipulation, First Amendment freedoms of speech and press have become exaggerations and that those who raise First Amendment concerns are merely distracting from public debates.
"It should be clear by now that my concern is not freedom of speech or the press. This freedom is all too often an exaggeration," Lloyd wrote. "At the very least, blind references to freedom of speech or the press serve as a distraction from the critical examination of other communications policies."
Lloyd became the FCC's chief diversity officer and associate general counsel in July. He works directly for Genachowski on issues related to diversity and broadband.
In his book, Lloyd said his approach to communications was inspired by left-wing radical Saul Alinsky.
"We looked to successful political campaigns and organizers as a guide, especially the civil rights movement, Saul Alinsky, and the campaign to prevent the Supreme Court nomination of the ultra-conservative jurist Robert Bork. From those sources we drew inspiration and guidance," Lloyd wrote.
Alinksy, author of the book "Rules for Radicals," wrote that his methods were intended to guide people intent on overturning the American system.
"'The Prince' was written by Machiavelli for the Haves on how to hold power," Alinsky explained. "'Rules for Radicals' is written for the Have-Nots on how to take it away."

It was a dumb play by Kaleta, who is 1 hell of a dirty player out there, but, let's be real here, despite Micheletti claiming that the play was something close to what Chris Simon did to Ryan Hollweg, it wasn't much of a shove. Richards went flying with basically a light little tap, either he was trying to embellish, or, more likely, he was just off balance and went flying. You can scream all you want about Kaleta, but the truth of the matter is, that's probably not a 5 minute penalty in most non Ranger fan books. Regardless though, the Rangers ended up scoring 2 power play goals (despite their power play looking godawful for the final 4ish minutes of their 5 minute major, and they gave up a shortie, leading to a shootout and eventual win by the Rangers.
What did I like about this game? I thought Gaborik played pretty well. He didn't score, I'm not even sure if he had a shot, but he looked engaged, he looked like he was coming out of his stupor, which is a good thing. Rick Nash, again, was monsterlike, scoring a goal, almost putting one past Henrik Lundqvist with a beautiful faceplant in the crease (was that hilarious or what?), scoring a shootout goal, the go ahead goal, and all in all just being a damn monster out there. Seriously, all you guys who was crying about his salary and what it cost to get him….whatcha think now?
What did I not like about this game? Rangers were pretty flat for most of the first 2 periods. A team that was built on consistency last year has been anything but. They are the 1-2 period team they were 2 years ago, and it's frustrating as hell to watch.
Anyways, just a heads up. There will be NO post game wrap the next game. I'll watch it, but I have a crazy busy day, and then on Wednesday I have to be up and out by 5am for a project, so I just can't spare the time. Im sure you'll live without me

This additional land was purchased from Lewis H. and Betty B. Marks. From the early 80`s to the early 90`s the park department used this facility for many types of outdoor activities. However Fletcher Morgan Park has become one of the busiest ball fields in the city. In April 1995, with the help of Councilman Eric Smith, the park department entered into an agreement with the School Board to provide ballfields along with the management provided by the San Souci Athletic Association to have baseball and softball facilities for youth and adults. Starting in 1995, many renovations have been made to the Fletcher Morgan Park facility, such as the restroom facilities, the parking areas, the lighting, and the fields themselves.


text: There may be more unlikely players than righthander Shawn Kelley to have hopped up two levels in just his second year in the Mariners system, but there probably aren't many. Kelley, a 13th-round pick out of Austin Peay in 2007, spent much of his time in college recovering from Tommy John surgery (in 2003) and playing third base and in the outfield. But Kelley has been fast-tracked as a pro and he's responded as a short reliever, going from low Class A Wisconsin to high Class A High Desert to his current post at Double-A West Tenn.

Epson MovieMate 72 All-In-One Home Theater Projector Review: Overview
Always start at the front, but, with the Epson MovieMate 72's swivel top, first I need to define the "front". For purposes of this review, "front" will be the MovieMate 72 set up so that the DVD player is below the lens. Of course, if it works better in your room, you can have the DVD player in the "back", and inputs in the front.
This image shows the alternate "back" with the DVD player now in the back, and inputs in the "front". For purposes of this section though, the "front" is the setup with the lens and the DVD player facing the same way.
From the front: On the top half there is the recessed zoom lens with 1.5:1 ratio zoom for good placement flexibility. The placement range for a 100″ diagonal 16:9 screen allows the MovieMate 72 to be as close as 8.1 feet, or as far back as 12.2 feet.
Lens shift will be discussed in the General Performance section. The lens has a slide out lens cover to protect it while moving the projector.
Also on the front of the projector is an infra-red sensor for the remote control.
In the center of the bottom of the projector is the DVD player, a single slot affair similar to those found on cars. Below it is a display screen, providing information on the DVD or CD in the player. The player's eject button is on the right side of the display screen. Note, Epson advises that the DVD player may not work correctly if you tilt the projector more than 15 degrees (a very reasonable amount). You can forget about shining the image on the ceiling.
Immediately to the left, along the bottom is a vertically mounted USB port, that allows flash drives and other USB devices to be quickly connected. The projector can run slideshows of photos, a very nice touch.
Directly above the USB port is a headphone jack. When engaged it mutes the speakers, allowing a user to enjoy great sound without disturbing others (as in late night).
Below the front are two non-adjustable feet. If you are using the projector in this configuration, and need to tilt the projector up, to get the image as high as you want, you can place the provided riser below the front of the projector. If you have reversed the head of the projector, (DVD player in the rear), then two adjustable feet are there to raise the front of the projector.
Moving to the top of the MovieMate 72, first is a recessed area behind the lens. Within, are the adjustments for focus and zoom. A sliding door can cover these controls, and when used, it also slides the lens cap in front of the lens for protection.
Control Panel
From left to right: Power Off/On (once for On, once for Off), next comes the Source button to select between the internal DVD/CD player and external sources. Next comes the controls for the internal player, with buttons for reverse/back, play/pause, stop, fast forward, skip (chapter). Next is a Break button – a very nice touch, which stops the movie, and lights up the screen so you aren't wandering around in the dark.
HDMI input for digital video and audio. Next comes a standard HD15 computer port which can be used to interface to a computer, or accept a component video input. Further to the right is the standard composite video and S-video inputs, and next to them stereo audio inputs (standard RCA jacks).
Finally there are two audio outputs, first is an RCA jack for hooking up an external subwoofer (which you'll need if you really want to shake the walls), and lastly (and most impressively, as far as I'm concerned), a fibre-optical Digital Audio output. This will allow you to output full 5.1 surround sound to an external audio system, should you have a nice one in one of the rooms you'll be using the projector. Away from the input area, on the right, is the rear infra-red sensor for the MovieMate 72's remote control As previously mentioned, the back has two screw thread adjustable rear feet.

by Gunnar Wennerberg, Kosta Glassworks
Cased glass consists of two or more layers of differently coloured glass - thin layers which are superimposed on each other and then ground, to reveal the different colours underneath.
This way the artist can create a multi-coloured pattern. The technique, which the ancient Roman glass-blowers mastered to perfection, was also used in the Middle Ages for stained glass windows, and it was revived in the Art Nouveau period, in about 1900, when artists began harking back to earlier periods.

Welshampton's Festival of Fire was on the verge of being cancelled because not enough money had been raised to stage the event.
But following an appeal, seven separate donors stepped forward to contribute to the 」5,000 costs.
The festival, which attracted about 3,500 people last year, will now go ahead as planned on 27 October.
Organiser Derek Morris said: "The response has been magnificent."
Last year's bonfire was built in the shape of a steam locomotive. Organisers are keeping this year's theme under wraps but Mr Morris said it would be based on a character from Greek mythology.
The anonymous donors include both individuals and local businesses. Organisers said Shropshire County Council also offered "a further 」800".

A Soldiers March - Poem by Jeryn Bean
As they march forward,
they think back to their lives, their family, and friends.
wondering if they will ever see them again...
but still they march on.
knowing that they may die.
knowing they might get tortured.
knowing they may face unimaginable pains.
yet still, they march on.
gladly willing to die for the man beside him,
and their family back home,
and for their country.
and still they march on.
knowing they will be plagued with nightmares,
reliving the horrors they have faced,
or the things they have done.
and yet still! they march on.
they continue to march on until they cant any longer,
and even then, they are by your side.
helping you just as they did in life.
and so, they help you march on.

Celtic produced another accomplished performance to earn three more valuable points in the SPL title race.
Hibs were the better side in the opening half and deservedly took the lead through Mathias Doumbe after 38 minutes.
But the turning point in the match came just a minute later when Celtic won a penalty and Alan Thompson converted it to take the sides in level at the interval.
Celtic came out looking for an improved second half and scored the vital goal through Henrik Larsson just six minutes after the break.
Bobo Balde was red-carded with 20 minutes to go for violent conduct, but Hibs failed to capitalise.
Hibs were the first to seriously threaten the opposition goal in 10 minutes when Ian Murray headed Alen Orman's cross back across goal, but Balde's challenge was sufficient to prevent Garry O'Connor opening the scoring.
Moments later, Balde was again required to divert O'Connor's drive wide of target following good work by Grant Brebner down the Hibs right.
Stilian Petrov had Celtic's first real opportunity of the game after 19 minutes, but his drive from the edge of the box flew just wide.
Hibs were let off the hook when Doumbe relinquished possession to Shaun Maloney on the edge of the box, but though the youngster picked out Larsson in plenty space, the Swede headed wide when he should have scored.
Balde foiled O'Connor again with a vital interception after Murray released him and then Stephen Dobbie fired wide with a powerful shot from outside the box.
Hibs took a deserved lead seven minutes before half time when Doumbe tapped in from two yards after Colin Murdock had nodded Stephen Glass' corner into his path.
But within 90 seconds, Celtic were level. Jarkko Wiss rashly pulled Petrov down in the box and Thompson calmly slotted the penalty past Daniel Andersson.
Chris Sutton should have given the visitors the lead before half time, but his close-range effort was weak and Andersson was able to save.
Larsson came close to giving Celtic the lead a few minutes after the interval with a shot that Andersson managed to block before Murdock cleared the danger.
Then Balde headed narrowly wide despite finding himself with a free header only eight yards out.
But Celtic did take the lead after 51 minutes when Stan Varga picked out Maloney, who in turn found Larsson, who had the simple task of tapping into an empty net.
Andersson kept his side in the game with a fabulous save on the hour mark from Maloney who had found himself clean through on goal only for the keeper to push his effort wide.
Hibs were given some hope of salvaging at least a point in 69 minutes when Balde lashed out with his foot at Scott Brown and was punished with a straight red card.
Brebner almost grabbed an equaliser 10 minutes later with a 25-yard volley that Magnus Hedman was happy to watch land inches wide, and that was as close as Hibs came to taking anything from the game.

(310.96 kB) Like many carpenters, I always thought there was no good way to install crown molding on a cathedral or vaulted ceiling. For years, I would just shake my head whenever anyone suggested it. "Nah," I'd say knowingly, "that never looks good." Most of the time I got away with that, but occasionally customers insisted, and it was always a struggle. But I kept my eyes and ears open for a better method, and in the last few years I've discovered several, each of which has advantages and disadvantages.No matter which of these methods I use, the back of the crown molding installed on the horizontal runs must first be ripped with a new shoulder or foot bevel to follow the sloped ceiling or the wall. Sometimes both angles must be modified (see "Ripping a New Bevel Angle," below). If you fudge the inside corner using just one size of crown, you... Login or Register to continue reading

In this crisis, unlike the previous three, our problem is not liquidity but solvency.
In the past months, those fears–combined with real concerns about the solvency of Italy–have been intensifying.
And as to the future, there are basically only two ways to get to solvency.
Not that the U.S. isn't in trouble—the radicalism of the antitax Republicans jeopardized the United States' solvency, he writes.
Did Bill Kristol and Charles Krauthammer and the folks at AEI lust for a huge philosophical throw down on Medicare solvency?
Not merely the home was in danger, but Tom's position and career, also Tom's solvency.
Thereby the solvency of the German exchequer would be moderately insured.
With the year 1825 came a financial crisis, and Constable began to tremble for his solvency.
Had doubts about his sanity, and still greater about his solvency.
Not the least thought of investigating the solvency of advertisers seems to have occurred to anybody.

Underrail - Dev Log #19, New Armor Type
A new development update for Underrail is available, this time it has a focus on a new armor type: The Riot Gear Armor.
Riot Gear armor is a medium encumbrance armor that specializes against firearms and melee attacks (+100% damage threshold vs. firearms and +50% damage resistance and threshold vs. melee attacks). Like the tactical vest, it's crafted from a carrier vest and a ballistic panel and an optional overcoat fabric. You can also add metal plates to include a shield as well (will add other materials for this purpose at some point) which will increase encumbrance, but will give you a 20% chance to block certain amount of mechanical melee damage (depending on the quality of the material used). While using a riot gear armor that includes a shield you can only wield one handed weapons though (pistols, knives, crowbars).
There is also some info on bug fixes:
Also here's a couple of minor changes and bug fixes:
- Increased duration of thermodinamicity to 2 turns
- Reduced damage of spikes and blades when mounted on a metal armor suit, but increased their damage when mounted on boots
- Fixed spikes of doom bug
- It's no longer possible to refresh the duration of stun, fear and short-circuit effects
- Fixed the scaling of Bilocation psi ability

Do-it-Yourself's Vintage fondue pot and fondue forks
A small red electric fondue pot. Just plug it in and go. I have 5 or 6 long-handled fondue forks, too. (That's about as many people as you can squeeze around it.)
Do-it-Yourself's Personal Story:
There is this superstition that if you drop something off your fork and into the pot, you have to kiss the person to your left. One time I had a party and two brothers were there. One dropped something into the pot, and you should have seen the alarmed looks he and his brother (to the left, of course) gave each other!
We don't strictly enforce that rule, but it can liven a fondue party up a bit. :)
