BART sort of runs through Berkeley, El Cerrito, San Leandro etc. The protest should have been a BART train party. Coliseum station is almost in SAn Leandro. Oakland city government set up speakers with music in their downtown to attract angry folks.

what does smashing windows have anything to do with solidarity? please explain...

reno: "what does smashing windows have anything to do with solidarity? please explain..."
Are you looking for logic? Well, how come Mehserle was let go after committing murder in front of witnesses and 6 cops?
It took riots to get Mehserle arrested, 12 days after the murder?
Are you worried about windows and not about restrictions on armed cops?
US do not go about achieving their control of other independent nations peacefully. Neither do the cops react peacefully to protesters! Peaceful demonstrations do not change the course US take!
We can all become civilian casualties of the police and you worry about the windows!

Victorian Premier
Victorian Community Services Minister
Dr Napthine refused to say where he would find Ms Wooldridge a seat and denied Mr Baillieu was unhappy at not being included in the new ministry.
"Ted Baillieu has a great track record. He is a close personal friend," the premier said of his predecessor.
"Ted certainly wants to be part of the team."
Dr Napthine said he was having "ongoing discussions" with Ms Wooldridge as to where she could find a seat after her seat of Doncaster was abolished in the electoral boundary redistribution and she failed to win in the preselection for the seat of Kew.
"There are opportunities into the future," he said.
"Mary Wooldridge wants to continue being a minister and wants to continue in parliament."
Morwell MP Russell Northe was given the Energy and Resources portfolio and said he took the governments line on coal seam gas exploration and he did not "intend to change that position".
In November, the state government came under fire for not adopting the recommendations of a report by former federal minister
Instead it proceeded with another community consultation period, and is expected to begin talks with the public and those affected in April.
"The government has made its [position] clear," he said.
Nationals MP Tim Bull was given the local government and aboriginal affairs portfolio, a move the first term MP said he was "humbled by".
The higher education and skills portfolios were assumed by Nick Wakeling and Damien Drum is now the Minister for Sport and Recreation and Veteran Affairs.
Deputy Premier
"His legal team are confident they will succeed in defending the charges," Mr Ryan said.
One of the party's powerbrokers Inga Peulich will become Cabinet Secretary as a result of the reshuffle.
Dr Napthine said Ms Wooldridge was making a "positive contribution" to her "challenging" portfolio.
On Thursday it was revealed Ms Wooldridge knew of reports that up to 40 children in state care had been abused by criminal gangs who have lured them into prostitution.
She dodged answering questions from the opposition in question time about the matter.
Land tax revenue and Commonwealth government grants have not been accounted for in the results but they are expected to see the state's finances pushed into the black.

The upcoming Victorian wagering licence tender is important for
The broker has upgraded its rating on Tatts to "outperform" after a few new developments, including potential regulatory change in Britain, which would allow the company to place more high-yielding poker machines on the ground.
The company also recently executed the sale of its Victorian gaming machines. Expected net profit had previously been upgraded by $4.2 million for the 2010-11 and $17 million for the 2012 financial year, thanks to a change in regulation, so the company no longer has to depreciate its gaming machines to zero. The poker machine sale is expected not to show up in the company's accounts until the 2013 financial year.
The broker has a 12-month target price of $2.60 on the stock.

San Francisco (AFP) Jan 10, 2013
Personal computer sales slipped at the end of last year, despite the holiday shopping season and the release of new Windows operating software for machines, a leading industry tracker reported on Thursday.
Worldwide PC shipments totaled 89.8 million units in the fourth quarter of 2012, finishing 6.4 percent lower than the same period the prior year, according to International Data Corporation.
It was said to be the first time in more than five years that there was a year-on-year decline in PC shipments during the holiday season.
"Consumers as well as PC vendors and distribution channels continued to be diverted from PC sales by ongoing demand for tablets and smartphones," IDC said in a release.
"The PC market continued to take a back seat to competing devices and sustained economic woes."
Microsoft released the new Windows 8 operating system worldwide on October 26 as a way to help the dominant PC software maker get a bigger share of the market for mobile devices such as tablets.
Windows 8 was designed with touch-screen capabilities in mind and to make it easier to synchronize computer content across the array of Internet-linked gadgets used in modern life.
"Consumers expected all sorts of cool PCs with tablet and touch capabilities," said IDC research director David Daoud.
"Instead, they mostly saw traditional PCs that feature a new OS (Windows 8) optimized for touch and tablet with applications and hardware that are not yet able to fully utilize these capabilities."
PC shipments in the US market dropped 4.5 percent in the quarter and ended with a seven percent decline for the year, according to IDC.

EVERETT — A thick fog that settled in Snohomish County like a stubborn squatter for nearly a week should take its leave Tuesday afternoon.
The soupy mist arrived on Thursday and refused to leave the lowlands.
It earlier spent four days blanketing the area between Jan. 8 and 11.
Monday marked the 11th straight day of dry weather at the Snohomish County Airport at Paine Field. At Sea-Tac International Airport the stretch extended to a 15th day.
Both streaks are expected to end Tuesday with rain forecast by evening.
"We are talking 11 days without rain and the fog has been around for the last week," said Andy Haner, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Seattle.
The combination of rain, rising temperatures and wind should help clear the stagnant air that has hovered over the area in recent weeks.
The Puget Sound Clean Air Agency on Monday lifted air-quality burn bans in King and Snohomish counties because of the winds and warming pattern. People who are sensitive to air pollution had been urged to limit time spent outdoors because the conditions could have triggered asthma attacks and breathing difficulties while making lung and heart problems worse.
The National Weather Service issued an air stagnation advisory for much of Puget Sound through noon Tuesday because pollutants, such as wood smoke and vehicle emissions, were getting trapped close to the ground.
Only twice during the past 12 days has the temperature cracked 40. Below freezing temperatures were recorded from Jan. 10 through 19, making for early mornings scraping car windshields before work.
Temperatures in Everett could break 50 degrees Tuesday. Rain is likely Tuesday and Wednesday and there's a chance of rain through Sunday.
The return to the wet norm of a Puget Sound January shouldn't seem too bad for those tired of the stagnant air, Haner said.
Across the country, snow is possible in parts of the Northeast and temperatures could be 25 degrees below average in the upper Midwest.
"There is a lot of weather that makes our gray rain look good," Haner said.

Monday is Labor Day. Labor Day in the U.S.
This weekend, Harvest Records is putting on Transfigurations II, a music festival to celebrate a milestone: ten years ago this month, two music-obsessed college grads decided to open a record store on a street filled with vacant storefronts and car repair shops.
This was three years after Napster had been shut down, but digital music definitely wasn't going anywhere.
iTunes was selling singles like hotcakes.
And CD stores like Sam Goody and Tower Records were already a thing of the past.
The Downtown Independent Groove (DIG) kicks off the weekend with lots of great music at clubs in downtown Asheville. The rock band Boston performs at the Biltmore Estate and the Asheville Wine and Food Festival takes place at the U.S. Cellular Center. There's also plenty of live theater to consider including The Odd Couple at HART and Sisters at Be Be Theater. Shindig on the Green is always a great option. There is one major new film to consider, Sin City: A Dame to Kill For hits the big screen. Tony Kiss has it all. Have fun.
One of Western North Carolina's major philanthropists has died. Adelaide Daniels Key was a member of the Daniels Family that once owned the Raleigh News and Observer. Following the sale of the paper she started the Adelaide Worth Daniels Foundation. She was an advocate for greater access to health care, education, community building, and the arts. She served as a member of the Board of Governors of the University of North Carolina and as a member of the Board of Trustees at Western Carolina University. Adelaide Daniels Key was 78.
Another big weekend of entrainment in Western North Carolina. Downtown After 5 is back on Lexington Avenue. While Rat Dog has canceled a future date in the area, a Greatful Dead tribute band is back in town.
There's Laugh Your Asheville is happening and there's lots of live theater to consider. Tony Kiss takes a l00k at some of the very busy entertainment schedule in the area, including the latest film from writer/director Woody Allen.
Author Edan Lepucki says a lot of dystopian, apocalyptic stories are aspirational; they're epic, sweeping stories about heroes and salvation.
But Lepucki's new novel, California, takes place on a smaller scale
"When you see people under pressure they're often not their best selves," Lepucki says.
The hottest team in baseball isn't the Tampa Bay Rays, the Atlanta Braves, or the Detroit Tigers, it's the Asheville Tourists. The Tourists are in town at historic McCormick for a weekend series. Flat Rock Play House has Miss Saigon, and there's a story to be heard at the Orange Peel. Tony says there's a growing jazz scene n Western North Carolina and six new movies have arrived at area theaters, including a spy thriller
starring the late Philip Seymour Hoffman. That's just a bit of what's going on in the area.
Tony says another weekend has arrived with lots of wonderful opportunities. He begins with a myriad of theater offerings. Boeing Boeing continues at the Flat Rock Play House Downtown while the Place House has My Fair Lady. The Orange Peel gets into the theater spirit with a unique program featuring Caberet, Vaudeville, and Aerial Arts performed by Teatro Del Gusto. Hello Dolly is on stage in Waynesville, and Forever Plaid in Burnsville.
Listen Friday at 2pm for another live performance from our studios as artists from Asheville Lyric Opera join us to perform selections from their upcoming production of Rodgers and Hammerstein's South Pacific. Michelle Seipel (Nellie Forbush) and Mark Owen Davis (Emile de Becque) will sing some of their works from the show accompanied by musical director Dr. Leslie Downs. Stage director Dr. John Truitt will also be with us.
Join us for selections from South Pacific live from our studios Friday @2.
This summer, WCQS is pleased to bring you Open Air Brevard, music recorded in performance at the renowned Brevard Music Center. Partnering with WDAV Davidson, each week we bring you a glimpse into activities at the Festival, including conversations with the artists and live performances of magnificent music by the artists, faculty, and students at BMC.

Owen grabbed his first Premier League goal since October to give Newcastle the lead and Keegan was quick to pay tribute after the game.
He told BBC Radio Newcastle: "This country has a habit of knocking its great players.
"It was the kind of goal he's been scoring since he was a kid."
Keegan is yet to win a game since taking over as manager but feels that the talent available means the first three points are not far away.
"When you look at your bench and you've got people like Viduka on there, Ameobi and the young Milner you're thinking 'Yeah I can change things'," he added.
"We'll have a strong squad for when Manchester United come here and we'll need it."
What are these?

Centrify's system takes the capabilities of Microsoft Active Directory and extends them across multiple platforms, said Corey Williams, senior director of product management and marketing—including iOS and Android devices.
A software agent that's installed on each device allows students and staff to log on using their main Active Directory sign-on, and a control panel allows administrators to specify which users have access to which rights or settings.
The difference between Centrify's identity access management system and traditional MDM software is that Centrify's system also applies to Macintosh computers and applications such as Microsoft 365 and Google Apps, Williams said.
Enhanced 'Notes' feature helps personalize online/blended learning
A few months after unveiling a new user interface that let teachers leave notes in the margins of online lessons and other course content, Odysseyware has refined this feature based on user feedback to make it more useful for both educators and students.
For more news about ed-tech innovations, see:
New ed-tech services aim to stop the 'summer slide'
New science teaching tools shown at NSTA conference
New service is like 'Consumer Reports' for ed tech
CUE exhibitors show new ed-tech innovations
The previous version allowed teachers to write notes in a single box embedded within lessons. The revised version enables teachers to leave multiple notes within a single assignment—and it also lets students leave notes. This allows teachers to create more context-specific notes, and it saves students the hassle of flipping between tabs to study more effectively, Odysseyware said.
Teachers' notes appear in red, while students can choose from a variety of colors. All notes also can be printed for learning offline, the company said.
Self-paced online curriculum for middle school students
Fuel Education has introduced a self-paced online curriculum designed for middle school students as they transition through the challenging "make or break" years in their education, according to the company.

New Delhi, Delhi Province (AFP) Aug 13, 2013
Hackers have attacked the Tibetan government-in-exile's Chinese-language website, installing an unidentified piece of malware which could have compromised the computers of users, a spokesman and a security expert said Tuesday.
The attack targeted the Tibet.net website, which is the official site of the exiled government providing information about the parliament, cabinet, administrative departments and public offices.
"We are a prominent target for attacks by Chinese hackers," Tashi Phuntsok, spokesman for the exiled government based in the northern Indian town of Dharamshala, told AFP.
"I assume they do it to steal our documents, disable our communication systems or spy on people who visit our sites," he said.
Later on Tuesday the website was functioning again and the virus had been removed.
Kurt Baumgartner, a researcher at Kaspersky Lab, a global manufacturer of antivirus software based in Moscow, detected the attack late Monday and said the website had been "strategically compromised" as a result.
The attack involved the installation of a type of malware called a "backdoor" on users' computers, Baumgartner wrote on a blog maintained by the cyber-security firm.
A "backdoor" typically provides its creator with unauthorised remote access to a computer. It can be used to send spam or spy on users.
Tenzin Taklha, a spokesman for exiled Tibetan spiritual leader the Dalai Lama, told AFP that the 78-year-old's official website www.dalailama.com continued to function normally.
The Dalai Lama fled Tibet following a failed uprising against Chinese rule in 1959. He later founded the government in exile in Dharamshala after being offered refuge by India.
China vilifies the Dalai Lama as a "separatist" who incites violence in Tibet, while the Dalai Lama insists his sole focus is a peaceful campaign for greater autonomy for his homeland.
Beijing's vast security services closely monitor the exiled Tibetan community while seeking to identify and thwart dissidents inside the heavily militarised region.
Since 2009 China has been swept by a wave of self-immolations by Tibetans, with more than 100 setting themselves on fire and many dying in protests against Beijing.

The Harker Heights Kiwanis Club met Tuesday in their new location at First United Methodist Church at the corner of Harley Drive and Cardinal Street in Heights.
Guest speaker Gina Pence, CEO and executive director of the Harker Heights Chamber of Commerce, shared information about the Vision XXI Leadership program and talked specifically about the activities for the group's class project on Saturday at the Harker Heights Activities Center.
She spoke first about the 2013 class that graduated 26 members.
"One of the members from that class is now sitting on the chamber board of directors," Pence said.
Kiwanis member James Hoyle said he didn't know much about the class before Pence's presentation.
"I didn't know a lot about Vision XXI until today, but it seems to be on the right track," he said. "For morale's sake, there must be inspired leadership. Management of nuts and bolts is not leadership. Seems this class is learning that difference."
The class runs for eight months and is highlighted by field trips once a month. This year the class included a Fort Hood, education, quality of life and government days.
"We have 20 in the class this year that will be graduating Sept. 3," Pence said.
Life Enrichment Fair
Before graduation, the 2014 class will complete its class project, a Life Enrichment Fair set for 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday at the Harker Heights Activities Center, 400 Indian Trail.
Fundraising activities have been ongoing over the last several weeks in conjunction with preparing for the fair.
Genghis Grill in Market Heights held a fundraiser Monday and donated a portion of its proceeds to the class project.
Funds raised will go toward providing scholarships for homeless graduating seniors attending Harker Heights High School enrolled in the Killeen Independent School District's Homeless Awareness and Response Program.
The Vision XXI fair is free and open to the public.
In addition to several vendors, guest speakers will lead four workshops. The topics are financial management, resume writing, dressing for success and human resources.
Metroplex Health System will provide free immunizations for qualified children, free vision screening provided by Southern Eye Specialists, $20 sports physicals will be provided by Wellstone Health Partners and free skin analysis is provided by Mothers Teach Your Daughters.
Tickets also will be on sale at the Life Enrichment Fair for the drawing of a winner of a Staycation Box filled with prizes worth $1,000 donated by local restaurants, motels and other businesses. An iPad will be given away to a lucky ticket holder.
The winners will be announced at the end of the fair.
"The class allows you to never stop learning," said Jos Portmann, a member of both Kiwanis and Vision XXI. "You meet new people and see new things that you would have missed otherwise."
The Kiwanis Club meets at 11:30 a.m. every Tuesday at First United Methodist Church.

Looks cheap to me. (
I received the elite care package the other day – the key chain has the new logo on it already. I actually thought this was some sort of printing error The "leaf" just doesn't look like a leaf to me either.
But maybe it's just a matter of time one gets used to it…
I made the Fav Icon of this logo for Envato website
I like the old one…
If this was to be an item for GR, it wouldn't be approved.
webTypo said
That imperfection at the top of the leaf is because it is present in the current logo as well.
So I think they kept that part at least from the old leaf.
I made their current logo flat and used a similar typo like they have in the new one, kept the emblem a little larger though:
EDIT: now that I look at their original emblem flat and the new one next to it, I like the old one better as well, though I said few hours ago that I like the new one.Not anymore. Sorry.
I think the new one goes better with the new choice of font….
I liked the old one better.
I ask myself: Envato dealing with the best graphic designer in the world (I think that's true). why she did not request their assistance in the creation of the logo, so that one of them will have the honor to create the new logo of the famous "Envato" firm, it can for example run a contest for the creation of its logo. and the first will be a small financial reward, or even just a "badge" added to his profile.
In this way, it will have a wide variety of choices of logos, and can even push things by giving the possibility to the users of the websites to vote on the 10 nominees Logo design, to choose the best among them by the end.
What do you think ?
In my opinion this logo is already 'soft rejected' by the community I totally agree with kh2838 – the competition could bring many fresh ideas and… who don't want a new badge

At some point in the interview and evaluation process, most employers will conduct informal or formal checks on you which could include your online presence, recommendations, references, credit history, grades, etc.
Most recruiters today use search engines (eg. Google search) and professional networking groups (like LinkedIn) to check out a candidate's public identity. So, you should be aware of your online persona and what a search of your name turns up. Ensure that an online search of your name results in a positive and professional image and that your online presence matches your more traditional marketing materials. For example, do your resume and LinkedIn profile have the same job history? Do recommendations for you portray the kind of information you want recruiters to consider?
Today there are online services to help you monitor and take control of the information available about you online. One such service, Reputation.com, provides free search and alerts plus fee-based services to improve or correct your online presence.
If there is anything at all in your public identity that might present a problem for your candidacy, be prepared to address this up front with a potential employer.
Almost all employers require references at some point in the hiring process. Develop a list of at least five contacts (preferably most recent direct supervisors, indirect supervisors, peers and direct reports) and be aware of what these individuals will say about you. Also, make sure that you know what is in your official employment records (for example, did you officially resign or were you terminated).
Allison & Taylor is a professional fee based reference-checking and employment verification firm dedicated to providing professional and executive-level candidates with a valuable service – research and advice on the most strategic use of references to ensure a successful transition.

Following their talks, a panel will convene for an interactive conversation including those burning questions we'll surely want to ask.
The Media Sandbox Series is a collaboration between the College of Communication Arts & Sciences at Michigan State University and the Capital City Film Festival.

Documentary Feature: Man on a Mission
6:30 PM | Lansing Public Media Center
In 2008 Richard Garriott, creator of the Ultima series of video games, became the first son of an astronaut to go to space. But this is no millionaire's joy ride: he pioneered private space travel to make his dream come true. From his training in Russia to his launch in Kazakhstan to the dramatic, never before seen footage inside the capsule during fiery re-entry, this is a historic moment in human space travel. Not just for space fans, this is a film that will inspire anyone who works tirelessly to make their dream come true.
Narrative Feature: Searching for Sonny
9:00 PM | Lansing Public Media Center
After receiving a mysterious postcard, directionless pizza delivery guy Elliot Knight decides to attend his high school reunion in Texas and make amends with Sonny Bosco, an old friend he once wronged. Once there, Elliot reunites with his fraternal twin brother, ne'er-do-well Calvin, their timorous former pal Gary Noble, and the gorgeous Eden Mercer (played by "Friday Night Lights" star Minka Kelly), the love of just about every classmate's life. When the guys discover that Sonny is missing under mysterious circumstances, their investigation turns meta when they realize that everything happening seems eerily similar to a play they performed in high school – a play Sonny wrote.

In a sense, Barb Arland-Fye spent the past four years practicing immersion journalism.
As editor of The Catholic Messenger, the newspaper of the Diocese of Davenport, Arland-Fye committed in 2009 to follow a group of candidates seeking to become deacons within the diocese by completing the St. Ambrose University Master of Pastoral Theology program.
Saturday, May 11, the longtime Quad City journalist will be among eight members of that inaugural MPTh cohort who collect their master's degrees.
They will join another 671 graduate and undergraduate degree candidates at 1 p.m. for SAU's 2013 Spring Commencement ceremonies at the i wireless Center in Moline, Ill.
Sister Barbara Moore, CSJ, will deliver the commencement address and will be given an honorary Doctor of Humane Letters degree.
Arland-Fye enrolled in the pastoral program planning to tell stories of devout laymen from throughout eastern Iowa as they studied to become permanent deacons in the Church.
She did that, occasionally writing profiles of the candidates while also crafting a column about the lessons she learned through each of the 40 classes held once per month from August through May over a four-year period.
Arland-Fye, though, said she gained much more than newspaper stories from the experience.
"I had no concept about how enriching this would be and how much I would grow in my understanding of the Church and my faith and how I apply it to my work," she said. "I felt personal and professional growth in the Church and that has been a really phenomenal experience."
Arland-Fye has been editor of The Catholic Messenger since 2002, after a 21-year career as a reporter for the Quad-City Times. She last attended school in 1980, when she graduated with a B.S. in Mass Communication from Illinois State University.
Enrolling in the pastoral theology program meant negotiating rigorous reading and writing assignments while holding down her fulltime job and maintaining a home and family.
Arland-Fye said she knew what she was getting into, but she didn't know how much she would be taking away.
"It gave me incentive to read things I might not otherwise have read and I gained so much from that," she said. "Some books just inspired me and they still do. It makes me want to read more and think more deeply about issues of faith."
She said theology long had been a source of interest, particularly while reporting its influence on topical issues for The Messenger. "I have learned how the times in which we live really impact and influence how the Church shapes its understanding of sacraments and liturgy," she said.
Master of Pastoral Theology Program Chair Corinne Winter, PhD, said Arland-Fye was a strong addition to the cohort. "She is extremely enthusiastic as a student," Winter said.
Arland-Fye will get her degree a couple weeks before her son graduates from Pleasant Valley (Iowa) High School, but she said this won't be the end of her second chapter as a student.
"The story is unending," the journalist said. "You can't wrap it up. It's a milestone. But I know what is going to happen. I'm going to take more classes because I want to continue to learn and grow in my faith and my understanding of the Church. Just being on top of the latest theological thinking on issues, I love that."
A second Master of Pastoral Theology cohort will begin the program in August. A July 13 ordination of deacons at Sacred Heart Cathedral in Davenport will include 11 men who completed the pastoral theology program at St. Ambrose this year.

2 responses to "Miley Cyrus Parked in a Handicap Space"
Miley: I have a physically disabled daughter who has worked so hard to walk and I actually feel sorry for you that you need to park so close to go and EXERCISE! Think about it! Parking closer to save the energy so you can go pay to expend energy? I would think that you of all people would be grateful for your abilities and not need to take something that is not intended for your benefit. You could actually hire someone to carry you from the next space if you were too tired to walk one space further. If there are nearby regular spaces, we take them and leave the handicapped spots for those less fortunate than our own child. You should spend the day with my daughter to see the difference from her life to yours. I believe you would come away as an advocate for the disabled, not one who is disrespectful of their needs.
P.S. It's ironic – your song "The Climb" is one of her favorites as it embodies the struggles she faces and how she tries to enjoy each moment despite the difficulties.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 3/9/2014 (1056 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
The merits of being mayor
The current direction of the mayoral campaign is hugely disappointing (Ready, aim, fire... on Judy W., Sept. 3).
The last time I checked, the mayor only has one vote on city council. Instead of promises that no candidate can deliver on without the majority support of council, I want to hear about what the mayoral candidates can deliver on their own.
I want to know how they will conduct themselves if elected. I want to hear about their values in regard to respect for others as well as see leadership based on high standards of ethical behaviour, integrity, transparency and sound judgment.
I'm not interested in haggling about property taxes or political affiliations, but am concerned about the vision each candidate has for our city, and how as mayor they will provide leadership with other councillors to create that vision in a way that we can afford.
Given the policy announcements and campaign tactics to date, I'm still waiting to be inspired, and so far have little confidence that anything will really change at city hall.
Barbara Cape
For all of the nine candidates campaigning for the mayor's office: Why are you running for this head-aching, gut wrenching job?
Is it for the power, prestige, position of the office? Or are you running to selflessly serve and protect the people of Winnipeg in every good and honest way that you can?
Do you have the wherewithal to do that by working with council and the city administration? What experience and personality do you have to accomplish your goals, whatever they may be?
Chris Kennedy
Judy Wasylycia-Leis seems to think that we're just like her -- that everyone has two or three fully indexed public pensions and therefore can afford to pay the endless tax increases she is promising.
She should find a way to pay for all her promises with the money that is there now -- that's how we in the real world have to live.
David Meunier
Contemplation in education
Kelly Gorkoff is close to the mark in saying that our sense that something is wrong with education should be "a question of what we consider an appropriate way to acquire knowledge and what the institutions that provide that service should look like" (Something rotten in the state of education, Sept. 2).
But education is a tricky topic, and it is hard to avoid getting pulled back in to doing the same thing over and over.
It's not a question of corporatization versus education as "a key component of social change," but of looking into the ethos underlying both. We won't see what we are doing wrong in education until we see that Bill Gates and Oprah Winfrey are two faces of the same beast.
The very impulse to get everyone on board and set everything right is in fundamental contradiction with the only thing that the social sciences and humanities can legitimately do -- sit back and contemplate. And while I'm not suggesting that education is entirely unrelated to social change, we currently don't even know what we are looking for.
Gordon Marce
School speed zones fair
Re: Speeding near schools nets fines (Sept. 3). To those who complain that it is unfair to have those 30 km/h speed zones around schools: It is also "unfair" for a child to lose his or her life because some drivers don't have the common sense to drive their vehicles safely, especially around school zones.
There are absolutely no valid excuses for driving recklessly anywhere, anytime.
Andy Chiasson
Killings don't reflect Islam
It is extremely disturbing and appalling to read about the brutal act of beheading American journalist Steven Sotloff by a member of Islamic State (Video purports to show second journalist killed, Sept. 3).
Barbaric killing of innocent people is neither moral nor Islamic when Muslims proclaim that Islam stands for peace, tolerance and humanity. The heinous crime and atrocities carried out by Islamic State are defaming Islam and are cause for concern for all Muslims.
My thoughts and prayers are with the deceased's family, and I hope that Islamic State will refrain from killing any other journalists they have kidnapped.

Sorry to bump this message again but im afraid that if i cannot solve this
issue I will have to replace the m0n0wall with our Cisco 1760 which i really
do not want to do. Anyone any idea what is going wrong? If i need to provide
additional information please let me know.
I'm using m0n0wall version 1.2b3 on a wrap board. From our provider we
receive a subnet of 16 ip's which we can use. The m0n0wall is acting as
router and firewall for this subnet. I am using the 3 interfaces as folowed.
I have disabled NAT by enabling advanced outbound NAT for the DMZ and added
a mapping to enable NAT for the lan interface.
One of the devices on the DMZ interface is a Cisco trying to run a GRE VPN
tunnel but it seems as if the m0n0wall is blocking the tunnel.
When i look into the firewall logs it doesnt display anything blocked.
The m0n0wall itself is running the PPTP server which is running just fine
(also with GRE protocol).
Does anybody have an idea why i cannot create the tunnel with that Cisco?

How much memory do you have on this machine, and how many cpus? And can you tell if the build is doing things in parallel or is just single threaded?

A parliamentary committee has grilled the corporate watchdog over its decision to allow
The Australian Securities and Investments Commission has given Centro relief to replace the RE for its 27 syndicates without going to a unitholder meeting for approval.
Centro's move has sparked fears among some investors that the change could enable the new syndicate manager to evade any potential liabilities it may face.
Led by chairman
Liberal MP
"Actually I prefer to take that question on notice; it's a fairly technical question," said Mr Price, who was appointed an ASIC commissioner last night.
After further questioning, Mr Price outlined the factors ASIC considered before it would allow a waiver of such investor meetings.
The regulator had to consider the commercial benefit that might flow from granting the relief, against the "regulatory detriment" that could also result.
"Essentially it's a cost-benefit analysis," he said.
Investor concerns over the syndicates' situation have prompted one financial adviser, Chris Garnaut, to ask ASIC to revoke the relief it has given Centro on the RE change.
Unless either 100 investors in a syndicate or investors with control over a 5 per cent stake in a syndicate demand a meeting, the change of RE will go through as early as next week.
Investor concerns follow the revelation earlier this month that Centro has already installed a new RE for its restructured $2.5 billion listed fund,
That move caused consternation among shareholders, who are suing the property giant in a marathon $200 million lawsuit now under way in the Federal Court.
Under corporate law provisions, the new RE of the listed entity can shrug off liabilities of its predecessor if the old manager is found negligent.
The syndicates business has so far been quarantined from the litigation besetting Centro's larger vehicles.
Mr Fletcher, a Liberal MP from Sydney, questioned whether the ASIC waiver could affect the rights of syndicate investors to take legal action against the old syndicates manager.
"We have a regulatory guide that deals with natural justice," Mr Price said.
Mr Fletcher then asked ASIC to consider more broadly whether its waivers took enough account of investors' interests.

[The Sharingan's abilities consist of two parts: the "Eye of Insight" (洞察眼, Dōsatsugan) and the "Eye of Hypnotism" (催眠眼, Saimingan). The first of the Sharingan's powers is being able to see the flow of chakra. The Sharingan itself gives colour to chakra, allowing the wielder to differentiate them. They are also able to tell if a person is under a genjutsu because the person's chakra flow would be irregular. The Sharingan's second-most prominent ability grants the user an incredible clarity of perception, allowing them to easily recognise genjutsu and different forms of chakra, though not to the same extent as the Byakugan. This also allows the user to pick up on subtle details, enabling them to read lip movements or mimic something like pencil movements. As the Sharingan evolves, gaining more tomoe seals, this ability extends to being able to track fast-moving objects before finally giving some amount of predictive capabilities to the user, allowing them to see the image of an attacker's next move from the slightest muscle tension in their body and counterattack or dodge without any wasted movement. However, even though the user may be able to see an attack or know it is coming, their body may not always have time to react. The Sharingan's third and most well-known ability is that it grants the user the ability to memorise almost any technique that he or she witnesses, apart from other kekkei genkai techniques. The user can memorise ninjutsu, genjutsu, and taijutsu with near perfect accuracy, allowing the user to use the techniques as their own, or even modify them to create their own new techniques, much like Sasuke Uchiha's Lion Combo. In order to reproduce a copied technique, however, one must have the necessary skill or ability to perform them. A prime example is Rock Lee's brand of taijutsu. While Sasuke was able to copy some of Lee's moves, they put a much more significant strain on him since he hasn't trained nearly as much as Lee has. In addition to physical skill and kekkei genkai techniques, the Sharingan cannot reproduce techniques dependent on other factors, such as summons that the user has not signed a contract with. The Sharingan's final commonly-used ability is capable of inducing a unique brand of hypnosis that involves suggesting actions and thoughts to the opponent through genjutsu cast by simple eye contact between both parties. More advanced Sharingan users can take the hypnosis ability even further to the point where a powerful summon like Manda or even a tailed beast may be controlled. When this was used against Manda and Kurama, their eyes took on the tomoe pattern of the users' Sharingan while under hypnotic influence. The hypnotic ability coupled with the other aspects of the Sharingan can make the user appear as if they can "see the future". First, the user must perfectly mimic every move their opponent makes and possibly their thoughts and words through careful observation. Then, they suggest an action to the opponent such as hand seals for a technique that the opponent and Sharingan user already know and copy that. With these things done, the user can complete the action even before the opponent does, possibly using the Sharingan's genjutsu to confuse or delay them. As with other genjutsu, genjutsu cast by the Sharingan are capable of putting an opponent to sleep, inducing paralysis, replaying memories to someone else, or creating various illusions to deceive someone. The potency of the Sharingan's illusion is dependent on the user's knowledge and skill with implementing genjutsu. Two Sharingan users are also able to free each other from other forms of genjutsu by first using genjutsu on each other, allowing them to enter their comrades mind and free each other from the genjutsu. In addition, more rarely used by the Uchiha clan, the Sharingan can allow the user to perform two very powerful and unique genjutsu: Izanagi and Izanami, which alters or decide one's destiny, respectively. Using Izanagi, the user can warp reality for a short amount of time, changing reality into illusion and illusion into reality. Although to make use of this technique to its full extent, the user must have the DNA of both the Uchiha and Senju clan. Izanami, on the other hand, is a genjutsu that traps the victim in an illusory world disregarding their five senses. However, both techniques have been labelled kinjutsu, because use of either causes the eye that performed Izanagi or Izanami to close forever. Although the Sharingan consumes the user's chakra while active, the chakra levels that the user must exert is so insignificant that they can keep it active constantly. In fact, Itachi Uchiha was so masterful of it, he was able to keep it active for most of the time, only once deactivating it after using Tsukuyomi on Sasuke and Kakashi, as well as Amaterasu to escape Jiraiya due to exhaustion. However, when a Sharingan is transplanted to a non-Uchiha, the chakra drain is significant, leading them to cover it up when not in use. This seems to be circumvented by acquiring Senju cells in order to boost their vitality.

However they were not able to hide the KG that they possess when they are in a battle. Few years have passed by and Aio was getting trained by her father. From basic to advance ninja skills, she showed a lot of potential and one day her father decided to see if she could active her sharingan for the first time. Basically trying to find out if she had the ability to awaken her sharingan. He pushed her and fought her in a spar, sometimes injuring her a bit, so that Aio can feel pain. She hung tough for a few moment however she was badly beaten. With rage that she had and the exhaustion, also from the beating she had awakened her sharingan. After her recovery, she had continued to train with her father for few years. Unfortunatly when she turned 15 her father died of an unexpected heart failure.

I signed up for PeoplePC's service at home because I could get a 566-MHz IBM PC and unlimited Internet access and on-site service for $32 per month. But I was surprised when the company sent me an IBM Aptiva.
I didn't know if I was getting an Aptiva or a Festiva. I just knew the box was from a big name maker, that it met my performance requirements, and most importantly, was part of a bundle that included 'Net access and support.
Bundling will be key to the success of many things. Consider DSL. When you're outfitting teleworkers, which would you rather do: buy everything a la carte or get it in a bundle?
Sprint is one carrier putting together compelling DSL service suites.
In 10 test markets across the country the company is offering a $149-per-month DSL service that includes four voice lines, a data line with an 1.5M bit/sec uplink and an 8M bit/sec downlink, 6M bytes of Web space, five e-mail addresses, 750 minutes of long-distance minutes, unlimited local calling, caller ID, call waiting, voice mail and three-way calling.
That looks to be about $200 worth of service, so roughly $50 off. But more importantly, it wraps up most everything you would need in one nice package that you can hold one company accountable for.
Sprint officials say they have another scaled-down bundle in the works that will include two phone lines and less of everything else, but they wouldn't share specifics.
These particular services are aimed at consumers, but it foretells of where things are going. Expect carriers interested in your company's telework business to pitch all types of packaged offerings, some of which will include customer premises equipment, 24-7 management and on-site support.
Sprint says it will have 2.3 million DSL-capable lines installed by year-end and twice that number by the end of 2001. It figures it can extend consumer broadband services to 40% of U.S. households next year.
Sprint's Greg Crosby, assistant vice president of Broadband Wireline Product Management, says it won't be long before carriers are either charging $10 per month for consumer DSL or simply giving it away free and making up the difference on "application" fees - video mail, pay per view, video library, etc.
Whether consumer or business, expect all the carriers to be hawking bundles.
This story, "The future is bundles, even for DSL" was originally published by Network World.

I speak with a lot of people about their relationships. I never forget that I'm only hearing one side of a story. I have Mars and Mercury in Libra!
It's easy to become invested in one side of an issue. Your friends will usually side with you which makes it very easy to lose all perspective. There are so many ways to interpret a person's behavior…or misinterpret it.
If you do the latter, you can lose something of real value that you probably should have kept. You may even blather about how righteous and heroic you are in what you've done. You say you're right and your friends agree, but what does that mean, really?
I frequently advocate for a client's partner, for the client's benefit. If he's a bastard, fine, but let's make sure!
Mars in Libra is now wrapped up with Jupiter, Uranus and Pluto. He'll stay that way for a number of months. Considering things like this will be productive and open doors for you.
Uranus is sometimes called, 'The Awakener".
Pluto deals with the shadow.
Mars in Libra is inclined to attack and blame the other.
Jupiter allows a person to see the big picture.
Over the the next months, many are going to wake up to the fact they're not innocent. This can really jar a person – I speak from experience!
I've decided make a series of this topic. This is part one.
When you had a disagreement with someone that leads you to end the relationship, do you purposely blind yourself to your own play in the situation and/or the experience the other person is having? If so, why? What do you get out of this?

Hillwalking Craigmore
Craigmore, Aberfoyle - A small hill which is 387 meters and is located just north of Aberfoyle in the west side of Stirlingshire,
1 mile north of Aberfoyle nr Achray Forest and west of Menteith Hills
includes Fishing Cycling, Sightseeing,
Hillwalking, Climbing, Touring in the Scottish Countryside.
Hillwalking Craigmore - Scottish Walks.
|Length: 2 mile
|Duration: 3 Hours.
|Difficulty: 5/10
|Well I wanted a wee relaxing day so I opted for Craigmore. This is a good days outing tackling Craigmore, a hill of some 387 metres just north of Aberfoyle, Stirlingshire. You can see Craigmore as you approach Aberfoyle from the south on the A81 as it dominates the area.
The starting point can easily be missed, so keep your eyes open. If you turn right at the Aberfoyle Visitor Centre and walk about 50 yards, you will see an opening on the left hand side of the road, which is the start of your journey. A steep, first 200 metres through heavy forestry, will eventually level out a little, to stunning open views of Aberfoyle and the surrounding area with loch Ard and loch Chon to the west. Hillwalking Craigmore can be done at a nice relaxed pace and on continued walking you will reach the summit, this should take approx 2 hours.
