Newcastle United have made ex-West Ham boss Alan Pardew their new manager.
The Premier League club sacked Chris Houghton as boss on Monday - even though they were 11th in the league.
Pardew was rumoured to be on the club's managers list - and the Magpies have given him the job in time for their big game against Liverpool on Saturday.
It won't be easy though - Newcastle haven't won any of their past six league games.

Hi, my name is Mike, I'm 22, will be 23 by the time I plan to travel, and am from the UK.
I am currently considering a solo trip to the USA for August 2013. Ideally I would like to go for 2 or 3 months (depending on money mainly) and would like to travel across a number of states and to a few major cities including New Orleans, Dallas, Miami and Washington. (These are all relatively close geographically).
I would be interested in knowing if any other people are considering similar trips?

From the GRM Vault: A Dual-Engine Honda CRX and 10 Other Cool Cars Hit the Dyno
9 hours ago in Articles
Back in 1997 we put 11 cool cars on the dyno in search of horsepower and truth.
I was able to talk the wife out of a tundra due to probability of gas prices climbing very quickly...
I was just about to pull the trigger on a mazdaspeed3 when i read a comparison article with both the wrx and mazdaspeed in road and track. They really like the wrx, with it's newfound 265hp, fastest autox time (cobalt ss was also in there), yet compliant ride... I was surprised when I went to fueleconomy.gov and saw the subie gets about the same mpg as the mazdaspeed and civic si, even with awd.
I like everything about the subie, but here is my one concern...reliability.
Consumer reports doesnt give it high marks, and said it was below average reliability? I worry about the awd complexity and the fact that it isnt a japanese car...which i trust more so than anything else.
the honda is still in the mix with it's excellent reliability record, excellent shifter, handling, etc...
I do prefer the hatch's as I have a 20 month old with stroller that it will transporting ALL the time.
Oh, and there is a 2010 mazdaspeed on a lot nearby that i can get for 21K, as opposed to 25K for the subie or 23 for the honda thoughts?
Subaru is a Japanese company, a division of Fuji Heavy Industries.
That said, I went through the same process in June and ended up with the Speed3. I figured long term maintenance would be cheaper without AWD, guess ill see.
I think that OP was referring to the fact that many Subies are made in their plant in Indiana now, I'm pretty sure that they don't make any Imprezas there though.
Uh, Subaru is Japanese... Also you can get the WRX as a hatch, it's $3000 extra last time I did the "build your own" on subaru.com.
But, the Speed3 is the winner here, and one of us can provide you with a Mazda Motorsports S-Plan PIN to get it even cheaper.
Been through the exact same process, and ended up with an MS3 as well. Friend of mine did it about a month ago, and came to the same conclusion. Ms3 is a hard to beat package when you factor in things like quality of materials, seat comfort, actual hauling room etc.
Subie reliability is pretty damn good. I'm happy with the three I have. The awd complexity has not added anything to the expense side of things in terms of repairs. Ok that isn't entirely true, my RS with 258k miles, I had to replace a rear axle, because a cv boot ripped, and I left it like that for 6 months. I don't really think subaru is to blame on that. I've beat the tar out of my three subies and they just ask for more.
That being said, I don't think any of your 3 choices are bad. Drive them all, and see which one you like better. I think reliability will largely be equal between the three, and an equal chance to get a lemon.
Look for the price of a basic maint items, like brake rotors and pads, tire price for the given size, if you are looking for something to break a tie.
thanks for the insight... I guess regardless of what the subies country of origin is...I was really surprised when I saw a below average reliability rating on consumer reports.
I think the MS3 is probably the best choice at this point.
How do I go about getting an S plan pin number?
i understand the s plan is extended to friends now...not just family?
Have you also considered the VW GTI? Another great car. Less muscle than the WRX and MS3 but plenty enough to get you into trouble.
I'm surprised to hear about a below average reliability rating as well... my '02 wrx is the best car I have owned. I bought it new, and can't seem to find a reason to sell. Dead nuts reliable, cheap parts, fun to drive, and very practical. It replaced a truck, as I put a hitch on it and tow an HF utility trailer when heavy lifting is needed. As an example for parts- a front axle cv boot ripped, so I went to the autozone to check on how much a boot would cost- the guy first quoted me for the axle: $60 without a core charge. Yep, it's a rebuilt axle, but for the money, and how stinking easy they are to replace, I'll just swap 'em out. The only mods I've done are a set of struts, sways, primitive skid plates and a free stage zero flash from XPT tuning. I'm looking for a second car so I can go fully rallycross with this one.
Okay, I've checked daytona mazda and they have a few mazdaspeeds on their lot for 20.5K. This is far cheaper than either a subie or honda. also, the guy said they are having a special now where the dealer fee is only 200 dollars.
So, I think based on the fact that these are all pretty equal cars, we are going to go with the mazda just based on price.
So here is the deal, I have an appointment at 6pm to go buy this car. Is there anyone with an s-plan pin number who can help me out here?
It would be phenomenal if we could get another thou or so off the price.
I'll be happy to get whoever a gift certificate to their local kart track or whatever in exchange
Subaru makes great cars. 2005 legacy 78,000 miles and the only problem so far was the clutch/throwout bearing. The car has been great! and the clutch I blame on the two girls I taught to drive stick and the AWD playing in the rain.
ok, I figured out the s plan and got a number. Was pretty easy to do, and if anyone else needs info on it just ask thx
I've seen more than one MS3 go up in smoke when the turbo let go.
Then again I had to replace the short block on my Subaru.
Hondas however have never let me down, though they were never the fastest cars.
Those are three good cars to choose from. I've driven some sort of version of each of those, so I can give you some insight.
I have a 2009 WRX which is mechanically the same as the '11, save for the wheels, wide body, and control arms. It's got 40,000+ miles on it now, and it's been a good car. I haven't had any issues outside of one of the heat shields for the exhaust rattling. The biggest complaint I have is that the interior is pretty rattly. Everything seems like it's cheap, hard plastic, and it all rattles. Most cars in this class are the same though, including the MS3 and the Si. It has it where it counts, though. The gauges are great, the seats are decent, the shifter is perfectly placed, and the dash layout is dead simple. Mine's a hatch, and it has a good amount of space in the back and the seats fold down. It's definitely harder to work on than the 02-07 models, but it's not all that bad. I'd rather work on this car than my 1979 Trans Am. It's definitely fun to drive, and you can't beat it in inclement weather. If it snows near you, you'll love it in the winter. I get around 24mpg with mostly highway driving on bad winter gas. In the summer, it goes up to 25-26mpg.
My experience is with a 2008 model. Great car, nice interior, handles very well, and FAST. They do have their issues, though. I'm not sure if they have alleviated the turbo issues they were having, but that's something to watch out for. The PCV system was also a problem. To be honest, I can't stand the looks of the new one. It looks like it has a goofy buck toothed smile with a front license plate on it. They are also heavier than the outgoing model, so they are probably a tick slower. Mileage was worse than my WRX as well.
Civic Si:
Nice, comfortable car. Definitely down on power when compared to the WRX and MS3 though, but it will return better mileage. Interior is strange with the two-tiered dash, but it works. Again, everything is plastic, and there's lots of it. Rides and handles very nice. The stock exhaust note sounds great, and not at all flatulent. The Vtec goes BWWAAAAAAAH! It's hilarious when it kicks in.
I would go and test drive them all. There's much to like in all of those cars.

In all fairness, the turbos eating seals are almost 100% operator stupidity. The cars are NOTORIOUS for spiking boost without proper control and after the installation of a down pipe. So you got these kids following the Fast and the Furious mod plan, and cooking turbos w/o proper tuning.
I think enough has been said by me in past versions of this question and by others here, so I'll only add one little fact:
Based on several dozen baseline dynos of multiple 09-10 wrx's, the 09-10 wrx actually is somewhere around 280-290hp (depending on what you estimate drivetrain loss at) at the crank bone stock, not 265 as advertised. Which explains why they consistently put up comparable times to the 300hp STi in 1/4 mile runs.
Yeah, I know it doesn't matter, but when people are comparing using specs, it's good to have accurate ones :)
I looked at the MS3 and WRX and others in late '08, and ended up getting the 09 wrx. I've been nothing but happy with it and have never regretted the decision.
SilverFleet wrote: The biggest complaint I have is that the interior is pretty rattly. Everything seems like it's cheap, hard plastic, and it all rattles.
True. Mine just turned 40k miles. But I have actually located all the rattles (there are actually only 3 notable rattles in the sedan) and fixed them all for under $5 in materials. I haven't heard a rattle in the car for 6 months now, even with it being very cold out now, roads here being lousy, and me autocrossing and driving the hell out of the car with 330# RCE yellow springs. I'll say it again - not a single rattle now.
The dash and rear deck rattles are VERY easy to get rid of. Shoot me an email if you want more info. Can't help you with hatchback rattles since mine is a sedan.
/\ The MS3 has plenty of it's own creaks & rattles ranging anywhere from the windshield to the parking brake assemebly.
I recently traded my 08 MS3 for an 08 Civic Si. They are two completely different cars. I've been happy so far with the Si, much better mpg & comfort. I got 29mpg on the first tank with that car, the MS3 will never see that. My daily commute which is a lot of stop & go saw 24mpg with the Si vs 20mpg with the MS3.
The MS3 will run circles around the Si hands down in the power contest. However, the Civic still is quick enough to have a fun drive through the twisties, it is also a much more civilized car. That & the shifter is 80x better stock than the MS3 with an upgraded motor mount, short throw & bushings.
One thing to take into consideration, since you will be spending a lot of time in it, is the driving position. If you are uncomfortable, you will not like the car. Regardless.
All three are great cars, you'll have to drive them all to figure out what you want.
For me, the FWD is the deal breaker for the higher-hp economy cars. The AWD on the Subarus doesn't really add any maintenance, and I've had good luck with Subarus.
All that said, it's a great time to be alive as a car lover with $25k in your pocket. So many good options.
all three are good choices. when i was looking (late 07 at new 08's, as they only made 7500 07s, used 06-07 WRX wagons with the premium packages and MS3 were around the same price, with some WRX being a bit less. what made my decision was that i could get an MS3 GT with leather, HID, 6 cd bose stereo, climate control, auto wipers, etc. for around the same price as a WRX wagon that had cloth seats, regular halogen headlights, basic stereo and manual climate control.
i really liked the way the ms3 drove, and the wagon interiors are nearly identical, to the point that a harness bar for a wrx wagon will fit the MS3 with no modifications, so really if you're sold on a wagon in that size, drive both and pick the one you like the best.
I like the Sube in this group, although it just got its azz handed to it by a six clyinder Mustang in Car & Driver's latest Lightning Lap comparo. So did the STI version. I'd also take the Cobalt SS over the Civic and the mazda-faster, reliable, low key and available in different configurations.

ok, so few have pm'd me about the s plan...
It is a crock of crap o la. No reduction in price. Slimemen...er salesmen...all said that the price they were selling the car was the lowest they could go, and that it already incorporated the s plan...yada yada...more sales b.s....yada yada.
here is the number if anyone wants it...
Tell you the truth, I dont think they even run the number to check...they just go into another room, wait a few minutes, and come out with a non-reduced price.
I'm now seriously considering just buying a used car from a private seller. I'm just so fed up with car salesmen. I feel like I'm rewarding their behavior if I were to buy a car from them.
so i go to the dealer tonight after work to buy me some mazdaspeed3...
here is the link to the dealer website inventory with prices...
as you can see there are several for under 21K.
So, I call ahead and talk to the head of internet sales. I ask him if there are any weird qualifications for this internet price or any other suprises that I might get and he said no. He says they are desperate to unload these MS3's due to them sitting on the lot... Heck, they even still have a 2010 fer cryin out loud
So we load up the 20 month old and head up to daytona.
As soon as we get there I tell the salesman and the head of internet sales that we are in a hurry cause of the babies bedtime coming up and we dont need to test drive the car. I ask that we do the credit check and get financing going right away...we are there to buy a car.
So, we do the credit thing and we are golden...then we get ready to start financing and the sales guy comes up with some papers and starts talking about the price. Well, we already know the price, and i give him the printout from thier very own website. He says that the price for the car is 21,056. I show him his website where it says 20, 400. He says there has been a mistake that it is last months inventory or some crap. He does the age old bs of going in to talk with the head of sales in another room and makes us wait.
So, now i'm getting pissed. Here we are, ready to buy a car, and they are berkeleying with us on the price they have on their f'ing internet site.
Long story short, after several "talks" with his boss, they arent budging.
We walk. And they sit there and watch us walk out and drive away. I honestly think they didnt think we would leave for a 600 dollar discrepancy.
So, we are now going to find a private seller somewhere and buy used. That dealer just let a sale walk out their door. No more dealers for us...ever again

After escaping from China to the United States 22 years ago, Chai Ling, a top leader in the Tiananmen Square democracy movement, reassembled all the puzzle pieces of her life. She discovered something that had been hidden from her, the answer to perhaps her most difficult question: Where was God during the 1989 massacre at Tiananmen, where China's government killed an estimated 2,600 people (something it continues to deny)? Chai lived with this question until she gave her life to Christ. A pastor at Park Street Church in Boston baptized her on Easter Sunday 2010.
Not long after being baptized, Chai turned her attention to the daily loss of innocent life due to China's one-child policy and subsequent forced abortions. By some estimates, Chinese women have had 400 million abortions since 1979, when the government implemented the one-child policy.Read Full Article »

CBS CEO Les Moonves gets snarky over Angus T. Jones
CBS CEO Les Moonves addressed the controversy surrounding Angus T. Jones of "Two and a Half Men" at an industry breakfast hosted by the Wall Street Journal on Tuesday.
"We took this boy [Jones] who started with us when he was eight years old, and it seems to be what happens with child stars over the course of time," Moonves said. "He's now making over $300,000 per week, which is not a bad salary for a 19-year-old kid, and he went on a religious channel and urged people not to watch the show because it was filth. By the way, he's still collecting his $300,000 per week."
[Related: How Angus T. Jones Won His 'Two and a Half Men' Role]
Moonves was cagey about whether Jones still has a job. When asked if he was in the market for a new "half man," Moonves replied, "We have other plans. I don't know what our status is with him." He then joked, "After going through what we went through with Charlie Sheen, it's been a piece of cake."
In a widely seen online video, Jones called the CBS sitcom "filth" and urged people not to watch it. Explaining that the show was in conflict with his religious beliefs, Jones said, "People will see us and be like, 'I can be a Christian and be on a show like 'Two and a Half Men.' You can't. You cannot be a true God-fearing person and be on a television show like that. I know I can't."

Women Peeing Standing
Any of you ladies here on PoopReport will no doubt be familiar with the
Raunchy Restroom problem. You're at a concert or a club, or even out hiking,
and suddenly the need to pee arises (as it is wont to do, from time to time).
So you exit the dance floor in search of the ladies' room, and you're
confronted with a horror of a choice: the stall where someone obviously was
having technical problems with their pissing equipment (because there's a
mess all over the toilet seat), or the toilet with the broken flush that
people have continued to use, and use, and use... practically to overflowing.
It's not a pretty sight, and not a pleasant concept even to bandy about in casual
conversation. However, it's an all too common problem.
So you're faced with three equally unsatisfactory choices: attempting to
eliminate the mess; trying to hold it in until you find a better bathroom;
or working out those gluteal muscles and squatting so that your rear is just
hovering over the toilet.
These choices all suck. But luckily for us
ladyfolk, more than one enterprising soul has devised a handheld gadget
which would enable a woman to PEE STANDING UP.
The TravelMate, from The Woman's Guide On How To Pee Standing.
As a woman, I
acknowledge that learning how to pee standing is certainly something that
would come in handy on a number of occasions, and would be rather impressive
to boot.
That's why I'm relieved (heh) to have discovered
The Woman's Guide On How To Pee Standing.
They offer advice on two methods -- the natural way ("The Finger-assist Method") and the easier way ("The TravelMate-assist Method").
According to them, both methods are PRACTICAL -- "No more
hovering over filthy toilet seats or getting poison ivy on your bum!" VERSATILE -- "There is the 'device-assisted' method and the 'device-free' method." And last but not least, IMPRESSIVE -- "Amaze yourself and your
If that's not enough to convince you that women should pee
standing, read the accolades heaped upon the TravelMate device. One woman
from Long Island states, "I can stand up and pee outside with the best of
them now."
I'd probably be willing to use the
device in desperate circumstances, but I'm not sure I really want to picture it
being used. Too late, though -- the site contains a far-too-
graphic depiction of a woman making use of the TravelMate. I really didn't
need to see how "Brenda 'pees through the fly' using a TravelMate." I think
I'm going to have nightmares, after I stop rolling on the floor laughing.
The disposable P-Mate.
But watch out, TravelMate -- because you've got a
competitor. Cleverly named,
The P-Mate is a paper device
specially shaped to enable a woman to pee into a narrow vase,
or a nasty toilet, or out in the woods where the Pope does his business.
be honest, I think it's a pretty good idea, and the P-Mate has the advantage
of being disposable (at least I hope it is -- eww. I'm not putting it back into
my bag, that's for sure).
So men beware, because next time there's a line
for the ladies' room, we might be invading the men's room. Though, from what
I've heard, I don't want to go in there ever.

Yes, i have tried peeing standing up "finger assist" and that is some hard stuff to conquer, although the "travel-meth" might be an advantage.
I guess the P-Mate and the Travelmate are both the same concept... you pee into a trough that becomes a surrogate penis. I wonder how many girls would want the re-useable Travelmate, because that means you have to keep something in your purse that you've peed on... even if you wash it, that's a bit gross.
I've always wanted to pee standing up for just one day, but I don't think its important enough to do something as gross as that. I would like to pee my name in the snow though. That's always interested me. Oh well. I'll just find my own methods.
hahahaha even if you wash it. Thats rich
Why not use that thing, women are always bitching, about not being able to stand up while urinating, i think it is a great idea, cause if your on a road trip with your woman, she can just pee anywhere, you dont have to spend all that time trying to find a bathroom, and who care's if you have to carry it around, dave, you run a poop website, come on, your bitching about pee being gross, it's just pee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
On pepe la pew's comment - Finally, the voice of sanity. I'll be ordering some of those travelmate's for peace of mind for when I'm hit by female fickle urinary patterns at inconvenient and frequent times (like a traffic jam, etc.). You know, they also have a tube and bag that'll work with it, so you don't even have to hop out of your car. You can drive straight through! I prefer the idea of quickly rinsing/washing the small plastic travelmate and putting it away rather than tossing some used paper to stink up someones trashcan (I'm assuming the paper aides/funnels are not flushable). I really don't get some of these folk's disgust with fresh urine. Unlike 'poop', it usually starts out sterile.
Creepy. I actually had a dream last night about peeing standing up. It was a strange dream and since I am female, I peed all over the place. Now that I think about it, I have no clue why I even had to stand and pee but I distinctly remember thinking that it was going to be a mess. So then I visit poopreport today and boom! A strange coincidental solution for my fictitious adventure the night before. Creepy.
I use the travelmate since half a year and it's fantastic. I recommend it to every woman. I like hiking and it's ggod fun to be able to stand and pee onto a tree through your zip. By the way the person how got nightmares from the photo, get real. After I used it outside I whipe it with a tissue and put it in a little plastic cover to rinse it later. And come on, guys don't throw their "tubes" away either after they pissed with them. So what. Have fun girls!
I hope you realize that there is a real movement to stop peeing standing up, even (especially) for men. Check them out at http://www.mapsu.org/
Dave, you might want to write a little bit about this group, I'm sure this could be a great feature article.
Phenomenal... mankind has truly spoiled themselves with their technology this time.
In case there are any friends of the travelmate or the finger method stopping by, say hello...
Haven't tried one but sounds like a great idea! I am confined to a vehicle for work 10-12 hrs a day and try to hold it till the next fill-up. Usually am successful but here's the rub... The gas stations that don't have public restrooms!! If I spend $50-$60 on gas the least you can do is let me pee. Last time I was denyed use of the facility I politely asked if they would mind if I pee'd on the side of their building... I didn't, but with one of these gizmos I could have! Instead I filled to the brim a Super Big Gulp cup in the back of my van and left it as a gift for them to dispose of.
Have you not seen the movie "Vatel" which depicts this very manner of toilet for French Royalty in the 17th century? I had come across historical documentation of this several years ago in my independent study of 17 and 18th century clothing.
I read about this women peeing standing up thing a month or so ago and have since tried practicing it in the shower. The first couple of times I thought I was doomed to failure. However, after about 4 or 5 times I pretty much got the hang of it. I'm not ready to try it at work (away from the safetly of spare clothes) but my last few attempts at home have gone smoothly. I'm am SO ready for the next time I hit the ladies room in a crowded bar. (shudder)
I like to piss,and this is an awesome teqnice to.
I need some photos of p mate products. women standing up while peeing
that mapsu stuff is crap. it's almost as stupid as this anti-masturbation site, saying that clitoridectomies should be enforced in america. but mapsu is probably some site made by one nasty PMS mutha. interesting how the site has no feedback... probably didn't get any GOOD email :P who the hell'd pay 20$ a year for a domain name, just to make a jackass of yourself on the internet? peace out, peeps
I really enjoy the www.restroom.org site but would like some photos of women standing & pissing.
its about time. Any woman who think peeing standing is
gross is just stuck in the past where woman were weak.
now its time to be equal. Equal is good.
peepee stand is coool
Yes, standing pee is better than holding it while the guy goes off to see a man about a horse. My wf has learned to lower her panties, bend way over and shoot a stream of pee backwards! (it's a lovely sight) her plumbing is just like all you gals so if she can aim it back, probably you can too. It's worth a trip to the woods just to try it!
I have the travel mate -- I love to freak people out with it when we go hiking... they all look at me like I have a secret they only read about in nasty magazines... hee hee hee heeeeeeeeeeee
Oh in this site the talking is all about urining, well so not bad if you know that in my culture the male people avoid pissing while standing! In my country it's so, as my religion has recommended not to piss while standing. I know there, they teach the kid when he can stand up, how to pee while standing, but it's not so hear. However, I don't piss while standing. for more info, you can email me, I may not come to this site again.
i want sumwun to direct mee to a site with actual pictoors of ladees pissin while standin
please i really need to see it :)
Been peeing standing for six months thanks to http://www.restrooms.org/standing.html. What a lifesaver. Camping. Trashy porta potty at the soccer fields. Poison ivy. Yucko gas station restrooms. You name it. All women should learn to pee standing. Power to the pussy. As for mapsu you men can pee standing as much as you like as long as you do the cleanin'. Fair is fair!
To reply Austin Chick, mapsu is right, because as they don't want women to be in trouble of working hard to clean bathroom, they don't want men to be in such a trouble too! If we men seat and pee, neighther women nor man will be in trouble, but the case you mentioned makes men bear its difficulty instead of women! Why women's and men's energy should be waisted in cleaning bathroom? They can use this energy in more useful ways if they reduce the needs of bathrooms for being cleaned!
I always leak on my panties when I am in school. During class, I get very full and cannot take it even when i tried to cross my leg very hard around. Am always shaking my leg when I am very full as we can't go to toilet during class. many times , I had to wear sanitary pads during class as many times i cannot take it , I peed a bit in them. THere was a time when i can't take it and i peed on my pants.. I am aged 14 at that time. since i use this , i pees in class in a bottle now when i can't take it.
wow what a site. woman standing up to pee is no big deal so wht the big deal. some do not like it oh well I enjoy seeing woman pee and if they would like to stand so be it . To all the woman who are and trying this best of luck this guy here enjoys seeing it.
poop rules
i love men
take a bath in peanut butter and pickles
..Its so much fun
I think peeing on people's faces is so hot. It gets me real horny. I also love men, especially old hairy ones.
Hold on their ladies! There's no reason to go out and buy this product. When you are leaking a bit and that pee is dribbling down your leg, just get some Oop's I Crapped My Pants.They work wonderful. They absorb all the pee in the world. In fact they work so well that I don't even make trips to the bathroom anymore. If I have to take a dump, I just shit myself right them and there. It's like being a kid again. So don't go out and buy these crazy new products, get Oop's I Crapped My Pants, they worked for me!
I was once a man and I peep standing up and now that I don't have a penis but a vagina of sorts, I still can pee standing up? With my legs about 2 feet apart i can shoot it about 2 feet!!!!!!!!!use to shoot about 5 or 6 buts thats okay.
My boy friend likes me to pee by squatting. He then opens my vaginal lips and wets his penis. He then has anal sex with me, with his penis lubricated by my piss (sometimes with me peeing). Its such a pain to we girls that boys try to dominate us since we pee squating. Its a nice advice to girls to pee standing using the above mentioned devices. I shall give it a try.
I have been on testosterone shots for 2 years and I have had a number of symtoms. They include facial hair, chest hair, breast shrinkage, pubic hair growth, and vaginal growth. The vaginal growth has made my vulva a mina penise which I can use to pee standing into urinals andget more accuracy than men because the vagina is easier to manover
I went to a restraunant once and it had a urinal that meant we could see ouit but no1 could see in. Lots of girls used it.
omg, does there really have to be a discussion forum on peeing standing up for women? i think things should stay the same. i dont want a woman standing next to me taking a leak, i mean shit. its just NOT normal. heh, as you can tell im a conservationist. oh by the way that MAPSU web site is such a load of shit. hell, i think its just some some women pumped full of testosterone sitting behind a computer that has nothing better to do with her/his/whatever money than spend on it a website againist peeing standing. it may be neater but hey, its more fun standing.
I agree with the last comment women pissing standing is kinda fucked up.
^i also agree with the 2 above posts
Women should sit on the toilet with their panties pulled down! Not standing up pissing all over their clothes! Men and women have different genitalia. Why would anyone expect us to pee the same! Daaaa! My husband and I frequently camp with other couples. I personally enjoy pulling my shorts and panties down to my ankles and peeing in the woods! It's exciting to feel the air blow across my vagina!
I always pee standing just because my mother taught me to sit. I always try to do just the opposite of what I'm told. Anyway, what's the point? It's just pee. Save a good, relaxing moment for a good, long poo.
I found Jesus! He was behind the sofa the whole time!
i love to pee standing up. why can't every1 do that
i love to pee standing up it just like you are on the toliet and it is just like sogge cerial
I flag for a living. I am out in areas all day and it is a royal pain to use the bathroom. I think these products are wonderfull! I gotta get one.

Jaime Pressly Mugshot Released
On the heels of Jaime Pressley's DUI bust late Wednesday in Santa Monica comes the inevitable release of the mugshot.
While the Emmy winner and former My Name is Earl star certainly doesn't provide a Nick Nolte-level shocker, Jaime does look a little drained.

2016 IPC Results
Congratulations to everyone whose images were selected for the 2016 PPA General and Loan Collections! Click here to see the 2016 IPC Results
A panel of 46 eminent jurors from across the United States selected the top photographs from nearly 5,700 total submitted entries at Gwinnett Technical College in Georgia. Judged against a standard of excellence, 2428 images were selected for the General Collection and 1007 were selected for the esteemed Loan Collection—the best of the best. The Loan Collection images will all be published in the much-anticipated "Loan Collection" book and over 200 selected General Collection images will be published in the "Showcase" book by Marathon Press.
All accepted images will also be on display at the International Photographic Exhibition at Imaging USA, held in the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center in San Antonio, TX, Jan. 8-10, 2017.
2016 IPC Live Replays
Why Participate?
Because you want to be more, don't you?
Participating in PPA's photographic competitions gives you the opportunity to:
- Engage with the passionate and supportive photographic competition community
- Improve upon your finest work (You can
do that math, right? You'll get better!)
- Earn recognition and admiration
from your peers
- As a result, improve your business
With most things, you get what you put into it, but with the IPC, it's what you do next that matters.
You'll leave with the motivation and inspiration to be more.
So what are you waiting for?
For every photo you take, there's a competition to enter.
Really, there are that many competitions. To help you understand why they are worth your time—and entry fees—see below:
Local Competitions
New to the game? Get your feet wet by competing in your PPA affiliated local guilds' or associations' competitions. It will help ease your nerves and feel things out. You also score a round of critiquing, increasing your chances for success at the next level. Check theLoop for more advice on entering local competitions.
State Competitions
Competition critiques at this level are often held live, providing insight into improving your work. It's the perfect place to start if you don't have access to a local guild or association. Check theLoop for more advice on entering state competitions.
District Competitions
This is your last chance to gather critiques and advice before the International Photographic Competition (IPC). (You'll want those critiques and advice. Even if getting your work critiqued scares you, the new perspectives are oh so worth it.)
As a PPA member, you're assigned a district based on where you live (Southwest, Northcentral, Western, Northeast, Southeast and Asia Pacific). Wow them here and you could earn a Seal of Approval. That's a big deal.
PPA's International Photographic Competition (IPC*)
And now things are rollin'—you've got game, playa! You're competing with PPA members from across the globe now and this ain't a competition playground: this level of competition (the IPC) actually involves two judgings.
The first one determines if your images are merit-worthy (yeah, that's industry-speak to say you made the first cut). If they are, you earn a second judging, which could possibly earn you an additional merit and a spot in the Loan Collection (our way of saying that your work is the "best of the best"). Images that earn a Seal of Approval at the district level are also considered for the Loan Collection, and are published in the annual Loan Collection book AND exhibited at Imaging USA.
Participating in the IPC can help you earn your PPA degree: earn enough merits and you'll earn a Master of Photography degree in no time. (See why that's such a big deal around these parts.)

Immortal in Death
by J. D. Robb
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Not a bad mystery. There isn't enough Sci-fi in it for me. The future setting feels like window dressing. There is very little you would need to change to have it set today. The futurist setting isn't really essential to the plot.
I think Roarke is very Gary-Stu. He is just too perfect - rich, handsome, totally devoted. They also get together too fast. In the Stephanie Plum series Janet Evanovich drags things out too long for getting the main characters together. Here J.D. Robb does it too quickly.
Immortal in Death
4 Stars
In the days leading up to her wedding to Roarke, Homicide Lieutenant Eve Dallas has her hands full with flower arrangements and wardrobe fittings. The best laid plans are interrupted, however, when Eve's best friend, Mavis, is accused of the murder of her current boyfriend's ex-lover, and Eve is determined to do whatever it takes to prove her innocence.
While the writing is certainly formulaic and the mysteries predictable, there is, nevertheless, something very appealing about the characters and the romance in this series.
Eve's character development is one of the elements that grabs the reader by the throat. As more details of her horrific childhood are revealed, it is impossible not to admire her strength and resilience. The revelations about Roarke's past are different yet no less heart-wrenching in their intensity and the reasons for his and Eve's attraction become clearer with each tidbit of information.
While the mystery is rather obvious and it is possible to figure out the killer mainly due to the dearth of suspects, the investigation is interesting and it is fun to follow the clues along with Eve and her new sidekick, Delia Peabody.
All in all, a fast paced and entertaining read with excellent characterization and an exciting climax and resolution. Looking forward to Eve's next case.
In the latest in the series, "Immortal in Death," we find Eve shopping for a wedding dress to wear to marry the hunk, Roarke. If you've read any of the other books in this series, you'll understand why it is so unusual for this tough city cop to be dress shopping. A supermodel is murdered and Eve's best friend, Mavis, becomes the prime suspect. Also suspect is Mavis's boyfriend, Leonardo, who just happens to be the designer of Dallas's wedding dress. This is a series that I just can't get enough of. My biggest literary fear is Nora Roberts, (J.D. Robb) will stop writing them.
I am really beginning to enjoy this series. I was hesitant to begin because I do not like romance novels and although In Death is mystery, the author is Nora Roberts writing as JD Robb. Nora Roberts = romance. Ick, I say. ICK.
I am happy to report that my fears have been unfounded. The plot is solid enough that I can skim over any romance-y sex-y scenes without missing a beat in the story. Occasionally, the romance plays a part in the story too. I still say ick but it doesn't make me want to throw the book across the room. The writing is good, the characters fleshed out. Overall, the series has been pretty danged good and Immortal has been no exception.
When Eve Dallas is called into a murder scene, she is surprised to learn that her best friend, Mavis, is a suspect in the crime. When Eve has to arrest Mavis for the murder, she vows to save her friend and find the killer no matter what. But it's not so easy for Eve to concentrate on the case when she has to plan her own wedding, tend to her best friend, and deal with the sudden memories of her buried past. Eve is determined to find the true killer and prove Mavis' innocence, and so she goes into overdrive doing just that. Eve turns up a connection to a new illegal drug, which benefits the user with restored youthfulness, but is also highly addictive and fatal.
This is the third book of the long running series and I've really enjoyed them all. It's interesting to see how the author envisions future New York and I love the mix of mystery and low level science fiction. I definitely plan to continue the series and hope to read at least a few more this year.

She was one of the most sought-after women in the world. A top model who would stop at nothing to get what she wanted -- even another woman's man. And now she was dead, the victim of a brutal murder. Police lieutenant Eve Dallas put her professional life on the line to take the case when suspicion fell on her best friend, the other woman in the fatal love triangle. Beneath the facade of glamour, Eve found that the world of high fashion thrived on an all-consuming passion for youth and fame. One that led from the runway to the dark underworld of New York City where drugs could fulfill any desire -- for a price . . .

I develop software and hardware systems in a huge variety of areas
I learned hardware through hands on. After blowing up a few transistors and designing a few thousand different circuits for real-world products, I soon found myself building complete SoC's (system on chips).
Having taught myself C back in 1997 when I was 10, and since learned over 40 languages on many platforms, programming comes as natural as speaking english. This allows me to focus on the task of solving the problem at hand.
As well as the desktop world I also work in the embedded world of microcontrollers, processors and the general embedded world. Working with assembly, *ISC, MCU languages and low-level linux programming.
Let me introduce you to Link, one of the products I made recently. It combines cutting edge software and embedded hardware in a tiny package. Think of it as your offline cloud.

Link is a tiny, durable SSD storage platform with offline streaming capabilities. Revolutionizing the way we store and access digital content.Find out more about Link by fasetto
Although my time is limited I'm always free to help. I try to get on forums to answer questions, and get many emails daily to help in all areas of computer programming and hardware, whether it be in software, web, hardware or embedded. If you are stuck on anything I love helping out. Feel free to email me.
I have started producing training videos for programming (with ones on hardware design, soldering and anything else I get the time for to follow). Check out my YouTube for the free videos.
I am always very busy with my own companies, if you have some software or hardware requirements you cannot fulfil I may be able to find time to take on contracted work. Each project will be taken on it's own merits and pricing and timescale can be worked out on an individual basis.Hire Me

It was for a long time held that the Marsupials differed from all other mammals in having no allantoic placenta.
As the allantois increases in size and importance, the allantoic vessels are correspondingly developed.
The allantoic arteries in the cord wind in a spiral manner round the allantoic vein.
The intra-embryonic portion of the allantoic stalk gives rise to two structures, viz.
The last of these can be dismissed, in consequence of the recent discovery of an allantoic placenta in Perameles.
In a somewhat older fœtus of ten lines in length there was a small allantois supplied by two allantoic arteries and one vein.
The allantoic cavity persists (Owen), but the allantois only covers the placental area of the chorion.
The allantoic sack is large, and covers the whole surface of the subzonal membrane.
Krause maintains that all the other embryos shewing an allantoic stalk at an early age are pathological.
The allantoic stalk, if present, was not clearly made out, and the condition of the amnion was also not fully studied.

Latest Java installation has serious zero-day vulnerabilities
The current TWO releases of Java 7 - update 9 and 10 have serious issues which are now being exploited - so much so, that security professionals are suggesting disabling Java in your browser
Google Search for News/Pages on the Vulnerability:
NetworkWorld.com Article on the vulnerability/exploits:
Blog on the Problem:
Quick "how-to" on manually checking that you have the latest Java (which is still vulnerable):
(disclosure - the last two are our sites - if that crosses a line - please delete the links mods).
Reading more about this - I have instructions on how to disable Java from within the browser - the Oracle/Java official way to do this (and the recommended method) - is detailed here:
Although... and this is HUGE - I happen to have Java 7 Update 10 - but opening the CONTROL PANEL - reports Java 7 Update 1 in the "About" - I recommend UNINSTALLING Java 7 completely - and re-installing it - then disabling it in browsers (if you need it at all - otherwise - leave it unintalled).
OK - got to the bottom of this - my system had Java 7 Update 10 (32-bit) and Java 7 Update 1 (64-bit) - if you have a similar situation - remove the 64-bit version and restart - as I am doing now... :tsk:
Another update - removing the older J7U1-x64 did not show me the "Enable Java content in the browser" option which is supposed to be present in the Java Control Panel under "Security".
I decided to completely remove Java and anything related - I uninstalled J7U1-x64 previously - now removing JavaFX 2.1.1 - and Java 7 U10-i586 (32-bit) - restarted the machine. Then downloaded theFULL installer of J7U10 my Java control panel now shows the "enable Java content in the browser" option under the Security tab.
With an installation that had incrementally updated through releases the control panel did not show those option on my machine. What is the point of upgrading if not every piece of the software gets upgraded?!?
I recommend you remove Java entirely - restart - visit the Java download page - get the full installer:
Then install and restart. Finally - open the control panel - and UNCHECK the "Enable Java content ni the browser" option.
Here is what the Control panel - Security Tab *should* look like:
another just FYI - more than one security professional I know are blaming Oracle for an incomplete and rushed patch to a previous vulnerability - this exploit is actually a combination of the old, not fully patched bug and another bugs:
Oracle may well have rushed out that patch, done a half-baked job and we have a situation where Java 7 Update 9+10 are as insecure as they have EVER been... :dunno:
OK - just to confirm - there is a lot of confusion about Java + JavaScript - most websites use tons of JavaScript to provide functionality - like Bimmerfest - the search etc.
Disabling Java in your browser using the Control panel - or manually disabling the Java Addons for each browser - should not seriously affect your browsing pleasure.
To be honest - you have to really committed to NoScript - because every time you hit a new site - you have to decide if you trust it enough to run scripts and then reload the page - it will slow you down for sure.
Just joking! :rofl:
Advice has changed - we and Brian Krebs are now saying - if you don't need Java - uninstall it.
If you have Java 6 and think you're safe - you might not be - reports are varied about whether 6 is affected - but Java 6 is end-of-life as of February 2013 - so it has to go anyway.
If you have a need for Java - consider a 2-browser approach - your everyday browser - turn Java off - for a site you absolutely MUST have Java - enable java for one browser and only visit that one site with the java-enabled browser.
Simply disabling or uninstalling java might work for some people - as Java isn't as prevalent as it once was. This might change the number of Oracle, who proudly claim 850+ million PCs and 3 BILLION devices run Java... ;)
BUT, I noticed in Chrome that you can inter Exceptions. Go to Settings, in the Search Settings window (not Control F) type "java", it points you to Privacy > Content Settings... Click it, in the new window "java"script is already highlighted. Click "do not allow any site to run Javascript and then click "Exceptions Manager", there you can "add a hostname pattern" and select "Allow".
Your thoughts?
Read my blog from this morning - it is a summary of Q+As regarding this problem:
and yes - I based my blog on Brian's post - but gone are the days of copy/paste for blogging... for instance, these days all screenshots are done ourselves -we only re-use blogs from companies where we have permission - ie, our security suppliers, like ESET, Symantec, Kaspersky and Bitdefender give up permission to re-use their blogs "as-is" - we do that once in a while, but try to re-work them a little - putting our own "spin" or "opinion" or verbiage into them.
I suspected you'd say that. That's why I asked. Oh well. Java is uninstalled anyway. I'll see how much I miss it.
Java updated - Oracle has released Java 7 Update 11 - despite many saying they would not do an out of band update, they HAVE released an update in response to this zero-day exploit
I recommend updating if you haven't uninstalled - default settings for Java applets have been changed to HIGH SECURITY. It is a big change.

Dana Blankenhorn
Dana will be speaking in the following sessions:
Dana Blankenhorn is, like Stormy Peters of Gnome, Jim Whitehurst of Red Hat, and John Doerr of Kleiner Perkins, a graduate of Rice University. That and $2 will get you on MARTA.
He began covering technology in 1982 with the Atlanta Business Chronicle. A year later he was laid off and went to Spring Comdex with business cards reading "Have Modem, Will Travel."
He achieved that goal in 1985, joining the staff of Newsbytes, the pioneering online news service. In 1994 he was fired by Newsbytes and joined Interactive Age, where his daily coverage of the Internet convinced management to change the magazine's focus from two-way cable to the online world. The magazine folded three months later. (But the staff did get to have dinner at a table with Scott Adams.)
Since then he has been mainly unemployable. He launched a newsletter on e-commerce called a-clue.com in 1997, started blogging about The Internet of Things in 2003, and was asked to join ZDNet in 2005 on a new beat for him called open source. There he is usually called either a crazy idealist or a corporate shill. He has also added a healthcare beat for ZDNet and SmartPlanet, where he is usually called an Obama socialist.
Dana still lives in Atlanta, near the East Lake MARTA station, because his dear wife Jenni heeded the call of his first journalism teacher that "if you want a good living get a spouse with a good job." She knows Cobol, assembler, and how to get along well with other developers. Unlike her husband she is a successful Rice graduate.
His two kids have graduated the Atlanta public schools and now struggle in college.
Last month his dog died. He's a cat person.

It tells me that left to their own devices nothing in the press world and its murky links with politicians will change. They just don't get it! Regulation backed by legislation is imperative if we are to protect decent people in this country and safefgard the future.

Arthritis & Rheumatism, Volume 60,
October 2009 Abstract Supplement
The 2009 ACR/ARHP Annual Scientific Meeting
Philadelphia October 16-21, 2009.
Attaining Public Health Physical Activity Guidelines for Persons with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA): Does It Improve Their Health Utility?
Lee, Jae Chul, Manheim, L. M., Song, Jing, Chang, R. W., Dunlop, D. D.
Health utility (HU) is a standard economic measure of effectiveness in clinical trials. Although physical activity can improve the health of persons with RA, it is an open question whether or not attaining public physical activity guidelines improves their HU. This study examines if persons with RA who meet U.S. Surgeon General (USSG) guidelines have improved HU over one year.
Participants with RA were recruited from the Increasing Motivation for Physical Activity in Arthritis Clinical Trial (IMPAACT), an ongoing randomized clinical trial that evaluates a behavioral intervention to increase physical activity in persons with arthritis. We focused on IMPACCT participants with RA whose data were available at a baseline, a 6-month visit, and a 12-month visit. USSG guidelines attainment was objectively assessed every 6 month using accelerometer monitoring. If persons had >=150 minutes of moderate or vigorous (MV) physical activity) per week, they were identified as meeting the guidelines. The IMPACCT data included n=77 who have RA and valid physical activity data (aged 2378) during baseline with a 6 month HU followup; n=42 also had valid physical activity data (aged 2478) at 6 months with a 12 month HU followup. Regression analysis examined the baseline relationship of guideline attainment with HU. Longitudinal analyses using GEE examined the relationship between USSG attainment and subsequent HU.
Only 18% (n=14) of this RA cohort met USSG guidelines at baseline. Attaining USSG guidelines was not related to HU at baseline or longitudinally. Further analyses examined the relationship between MV physical activity quartiles and HU. This RA cohort had very low activity levels (Q1: 0; Q2: 115; Q3:1690; Q4:>90 min MVPA a week); persons below the median had almost no MV physical activity (<15 min/week). Baseline HU is almost identical for persons with RA below the median (Q1:HU=0.67, Q2: HU=0.69). Those with RA above the median had higher baseline HU (Q3: HU=0.74, Q4: HU=0.74), which suggests attaining even low amount of MV activity is beneficial for those with RA. At baseline having MV activity above the median was associated with significantly higher utility compared to persons below the median (0.72 vs 0.67, p=0.004). Longitudinally, persons with MV activity above the median had better subsequent utility than those below the median (0.72 vs 0.68, p=.012).
Few persons with RA attained USSG guidelines. USSG attainment was not associated with HU at baseline or longitudinally. In contrast, persons who attained even low levels of MV physical activity had significantly better utility at baseline and better subsequent utility compared to persons attaining little or no MV activity. These findings suggest that moving persons with RA from none to some MV physical activity may be a more effective strategy than working to attain USSG guidelines. Separate public health physical activity guidelines should be investigated for persons with RA.

Started the day picking up the last of the whole chickens...wow.. Whole chickens will probably sell out this month! Spent an hour or so creating a new seed storing system including seeding supplies so all in one place...put aside tomatoes, squash, savory, chervil, broccoli raab, Michli chinese cabbage, Savoy cabbage and Fordhook Swiss to be started in trays...and another batch of a variety of lettuces to be planted outside along with more beets and radishes. Completed the outside planting along with a tray of lettuce that was ready to go out..completed some foliar feeding and watering the new germinating rows. i called a local supplier about new supplies for irrigation in the new greenhouse that will eliminate the need to hand water newly planted rows. Wow...what a day...and many more to come...so sweet to see things coming together!

Washington Twp. resident charged in abuse of 2nd boy
A Washington Township man accused a week ago of molesting a 9-year-old was charged Friday with allegedly molesting the boy's 10-year-old friend, police said.James A. Lynn, 51, of the 1700 block of Washington Road, was arraigned by Washington Township District Judge Jason Buczak.
A week before, Friday ordered Lynn sent to the Westmoreland County jail in lieu of $100,000 bond pending a preliminary hearing. He posted bond but was rearrested Thursday, police said.
In the second case, Buczak sent Lynn to the county jail Friday in lieu of an additional $50,000 bond pending a combined preliminary hearing.In the new allegations, Lynn is accused of touching the 10-year-old while showering with the boy. On another occasion, the boy said he woke up to find his underwear was off.
Police say the boys had regular contact with Lynn for three months last year.
According to an affidavit, Lynn told police in December that the boys took showers at his house. Lynn said he had them face away from him to help them wash their hair and back. He denied showering with the boys.
Lynn was charged Friday with two counts each of indecent assault on someone younger than 13, corruption of minors, and endangering the welfare of children.
In the first case, Lynn allegedly touched the 9-year-old boy at Lynn's house several times.
In that case, Lynn was charged with indecent assault on a person younger than 13, corruption of minors by an adult and endangering the welfare of a child.
Police on Friday said the boys didn't tell police about the alleged molestation until November.
Buczak's office is rescheduling the preliminary hearings so that both cases can be heard on the same day.

Traffic is backing up in Maspeth and members of the Juniper Park Civic Association are up in arms, accusing the city of poor judgment in permanently closing off part of a traffic triangle before starting a plan to divert commercial trucks from the area.
"We definitely are in favor of the reconfiguration of this intersection, but the bypass plan should have been put in place first," said civic President Robert Holden in a statement. "By not planning properly, DOT is turning what was a traffic headache into a nightmare."
The city Department of Transportation recently closed Grand Avenue between Flushing Avenue and 64th Street to create a safer environment for children walking to and from St. Stanislaus Kostka Elementary School on Grand Avenue at 61st Street.
Christina Wilkinson, the civic's secretary, said trucks trying to navigate the S−turn created by closing off Grand Avenue through the triangle have destroyed two Maspeth Chamber of Commerce signs and scraped the trunks of several trees on the sidewalk.
"It's kind of ironic that this traffic−calming solution is actually putting people in danger," she said.
In a letter responding to the civic's complaint, Queens DOT Commissioner Maura McCarthy said the agency received many calls about traffic congestion at the end of October.
"I visited the site personally on Friday, Oct. 24, at 2:30 p.m. and again at 4:30 p.m.," she wrote. "There was no traffic congestion on Grand Avenue at that time."
Other staff also visited the site at different rush−hour times Oct. 27 and Oct. 28 without spotting any congestion, she said.
The truck bypass plan long advocated by the civic and Community Board 5 calls for trucks to exit the Long Island Expressway at Maurice Avenue and proceed to 58th Street in West Maspeth instead of Grand Avenue.

Settler Murder Retaliated
IDF helicopters fired three to four missiles at a Palestinian security post in the West Bank city of Nablus on Wednesday causing no casualties, Palestinian security forces and witnesses said. The strike on the Force 17 post came just hours after Israeli helicopters struck two security posts in Nablus in retaliation for the overnight killing of a Jewish settler, 40-year-old Zohar Shurgi, from Moshav Yafit in the Jordan Valley by Palestinian gunmen. Israeli anti-tank missiles also hit a security target in the West Bank city of Jericho earlier on Wednesday after gunmen fired at motorists.
Israeli Merchant Killed in Jordan
An Israeli diamond merchant in his 50s was shot to death in unclear circumstances in Amman, Jordan. The Jordanian information minister, who identified the victim as Yitzhak Shneir, said the slaying could have been a "settling of scores among business associates."
But Abu Dhabi television said a group calling itself the Islamic Jordanian Resistance Movement claimed responsibility, citing what it called Israel's mistreatment of the Palestinians.
Israeli Military: Back Arafat
Israeli defense officials are advising the government to take steps to prevent the collapse of Palestinian Authority President Yasser Arafat's regime. The Israeli daily Ma'ariv reported Tuesday that the officials are warning that the collapse of the Palestinian Authority could lead to chaos in the West Bank and Gaza Strip.
Knot Tied in Slovak Town
In the first full-scale religious Jewish wedding in Kosice, Slovakia, in 60 years, Los Angeles-born Shawn Landres married Zuzana Riemer in an open-air ceremony Sunday. Landres, a graduate student at both Oxford University and the University of California at Santa Barbara, met his bride during a sports camp for Slovak Jewish youth in 1998.
Women Join Suicide Teams
Dozens of Palestinian women are responding to a decree issued by Saudi Arabia's High Islamic Council to become suicide bombers, according to the Sunday Times of London. The report of last week's decree comes after a 23-year-old mother of two was arrested with explosives at Tel Aviv's Central Bus Station last Friday.
Some Islamic officials reportedly had opposed allowing women to become suicide bombers, but changed their minds after an Israeli attack last week that killed eight Palestinians, including top members of Hamas.
Netanyahu Nephew: No IDF for Me
A nephew of former Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu asked Israel's Supreme Court for conscientious objector status. Yonatan Ben-Artzi, a teenager facing the draft like all Israeli 18-year-olds, said Aug. 1, he is opposed to all armies.
Sanctions Act Becomes Law
President Bush last Friday signed into law a five-year extension of the Iran-Libya Sanctions Act, which punishes foreign companies that invest in the countries' energy sectors. Bush, who favored a two-year extension of the bill, expressed support for a new provision in the law that requires a report on the impact of the sanctions.
Israel Gets Historic Haggadah
A 15th-century haggadah bought in April for more than $1 million was donated last Friday to the Israel Museum in Jerusalem. The First Nuremberg Haggadah, written and illustrated in Germany in 1449 by a man known as Joel ben Simeon, was purchased by New York collector Erica Jesselson at a Sotheby's auction in Tel Aviv. "This haggadah is a patrimonial treasure, like the Mona Lisa," James Snyder, director of the Israel Museum said.

Have Relationship Questions? Ask a Counselor for Answers ASAP
Although that is really nice of you to put your sister's feelings and needs before your own there is bound to be hurt feelings with your in laws. What you could do is invite them but ask them to please not bring your gift to the party ask them to give it to you later this way they can still come and all of the attention won't be on you. Explain the situation to them and ask them to respect your wishes especially where your sister is concerned and that you don't want to hurt anyone's feelings theirs or your sister's. This way you have found a happy medium because if you do not invite your husband's parents they will take it as you not wanting them there at all and this could cause strain in your marriage and your relationship with your in laws.
Also you can only invite them to your house for cake and ice cream and still ask them to give you your gift before or after your birthday celebration, I'm sure if you explain the situation they will better understand than for you to just not invite them. When you marry you become one and you have include their family because just like your are taking into consideration your sister's feelings you have to do the same about your husband's feelings also even though it's your day and it belongs to your sister and you, you have to live with your husband after the party so try to work it out before then and compromise.

Police said a man broke into Ken Williams' Chicago home and wore the White Sox general manager's clothes and 2005 World Series ring.
They spotted Wayne L. Field III wearing them when he returned to the scene and peeked into the home.
Field, 51, was arrested and charged with residential burglary Monday. Police said he also stole a set of keys.
According to a report by NBC Chicago, Williams confirmed the incident and said the intruder drank beer, ate frozen pizza, used the Internet and kicked his shoes off on a bed. There was also evidence he was defrosting a lobster, police said.
Williams wasn't home during the incident, which police said occurred between Nov. 18 and Nov. 21.
Police found a hospital bracelet with Field's name on it at the scene, and matched it with the name he gave them when he returned there, according to The Chicago Tribune.
According to court records obtained by The Tribune, Field has a record of arrests for assault, indecent exposure and sexual abuse.
Field is due at a bond hearing later today.

Samantha's magic for teammate mum
Family ties: Samantha and Jacqueline Browne.
Photo: Paul Harris
JACQUELINE Browne did not have too many wishes for her second child.
"I was going to be happy with whatever the Lord gave me," she recalled.
It was not a tough pregnancy and the netballer continued playing until "quite late", just as she had with her first child, Sabrina.
Even after the birth, Browne did not waste too much time being at home. "I was out for only six weeks and then I was back. I was strong," she said.
Her only wish was the baby would, like her older sister, follow in their mother's footsteps. Sixteen years on, Browne's dreams have come true and she and her baby, Samantha, are in Melbourne representing their island nation of Barbados in the Commonwealth Games.
The mother-daughter duo have attracted a bit of media attention in the lead-up to the Games but to the Browne girls, playing together for their country is as natural as anything else they do at home.
Both say that once they are on court mum plays in defence and daughter in mid-court their relationship becomes the same as any other teammates and neither has been tempted to seek revenge on an opponent for any perceived wrongdoing on the other.
At home, where they live with Sabrina and Jacqueline's mother and sisters, though, it's a different story. Browne senior, 36, throws back her head and rolls her eyes like any exasperated mother when asked for a critique of her daughter's competence in household chores.
"Well, she helps me clean maybe, but no cooking," she sighs. Samantha, in turn, says that at least she is interested in baking and after finishing school, she wants to become a pastry chef.
Also, unlike other teenagers, she is not the least bit annoyed at having her mum follow her everywhere. "It's nice to have her," she said, smiling.
The pair are enjoying "the beauty" of Melbourne but miss Sabrina, who made the initial Games squad but missed out on the final team.
The other thing casting a shadow is the performance of the team, says Jacqueline. "We came here looking for a medal. We can't get that any more but we'll beat Wales tomorrow and hopefully we can finish on a high.".
