The Tour de France will have no official winner for the seven races from 1999-2005 if Lance Armstrong is stripped of his victories by the International Cycling Union. In an interview Friday, Tour director Christian Prudhomme called the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency's report on Armstrong "damning." It raises doubts, he said, about "a system and an era." Tour officials are still waiting on the UCI's decision on whether to go along with USADA's decision to ban Armstrong for life and erase his racing results. A spokesman for the sport's governing body, Enrico Carpani, said it was "too early to say" what would happen. The UCI must decide by the end of the month whether to appeal USADA's ruling. UCI President Pat McQuaid declined to comment on USADA's report but defended his organization's efforts to catch drug cheats. The report cost Armstrong's former team manager Johan Bruyneel his job as general manager of RadioShack Nissan Trek.
San Francisco outfielder Melky Cabrera has been reinstated by Major League Baseball after serving a 50-game suspension for a positive testosterone test, but he will not be part of the Giants' playoff roster.

Ex-Oklahoma State basketball player Darrell Williams was freed after a judge gave him a suspended sentence in a sexual assault case in which Williams insisted he was innocent. Williams, 23, had been jailed since he was convicted in July of groping two women and reaching inside their pants without their consent at a party in December 2010. He maintained he was the victim of misidentification - several of the 80 people at the party were wearing Oklahoma State University warm-up clothes - and his supporters claimed he was a victim of racial bias.

How long before Facebook and Ping become friends? That appears to be the big question surrounding Apple's new social network for iTunes.
Following the debut of Ping during an Apple event Wednesday in San Francisco, CEO Steve Jobs told AllThingsD the company could not reach an agreement on integrating one of the world's most popular social networks because of "onerous terms."
Since then, AllThingsD reports Facebook blocked API access to Ping, forcing Apple to remove any integration features. More from writer Kara Swisher:
"According to sources familiar with Facebook's platform, the social networking giant essentially denied Apple's Ping access to application programming interfaces that would allow it to search for an iTunes user's friends on Facebook who also had signed up for Ping. Normally, this API access is open and does not require permission. That is, unless some entity wants to access it a lot. In that case, Facebook requires an agreement for reasons primarily centered on protection of Facebook user data and, of course, infrastructure impact."
Facebook has released this official statement on the problems: "We're working with Apple to resolve this issue. We've worked together successfully in the past, and we look forward to doing so in the future."
We have reached out to both Facebook and Apple for additional details.
Meanwhile, senior security analyst with security firm Sophos Chris Wisniewski writes in his blog that Ping has become a spam haven. Wisniewski says the most common spam messages involve Apple, such as offers of free iPads and iPhones.

Drop the anti-immigrant rhetoric! Focus on the "family values" that Latinos supposedly share with the party! But that magic solution to Republicans' demographic problem that some conservatives are touting — which conveniently allows the party to resist moderating on so-called social issues like gay marriage and abortion — is unlikely to pan out.
Two days after Latino voters broadly rejected the Republican Party, Charles Krauthammer saw reason for optimism. Latinos, he said, "should be a natural Republican constituency: striving immigrant community, religious, Catholic, family-oriented and socially conservative (on abortion, for example.)" George W. Bush and Karl Rove found a way to approach 40 percent of the Latino vote; Romney barely netted half that. So Republicans, facing a demographic time bomb as their base of white men ages, have comforted themselves by thinking all they really need to do is perform as well as Bush did among Latinos to get near the White House again.
Rove's plan won't work: Don't count on Latino social conservatism

Can Toyota make hybrid cars sexier?
A top executive this week broadly hinted that the automaker plans to launch a new, sexier Lexus model based on a concept car seen at the North American International Auto Show earlier this year.
The Lexus LF-LC concept coupe is "not only a hot-looking coupe, it's a hybrid," said Bob Carter, Toyota's senior vice president of automotive operations in the U.S., in a speech. "So you can look great while helping to meet the needs of our environment and society."
He says the concept has received a "fantastic reception," often code for "we're going to build it."
In the middle of what it calls its more most ambitious product launch in its 54-year history in America, Toyota plans for half its new models to be hybrids or electrics. It has a hydrogen fuel cell vehicle in the works, too.
It has two electric vehicles on the way, but says it will only build them in low volume. One is the Toyota RAV4-EV that it is just launching now. The other is an electric version of the Scion iQ minicar.
He says their role will be "limited" until battery technology increases and prices fall.
The RAV4-EV has a range of more than 100 miles per charge. The iQ-EV will be aimed at being an urban get-around-town car.
"Our goal is to create a variety of vehicles for the future that can run on gas or other fuels … and then let customers determine what works best for them," said Carter.
Chris Woodyard is an auto writer for USA TODAY who covers all aspects of motoring. He revels in the exhaust note of a Maserati and the sharp creases of a Cadillac CTS. Chris strives to live a Porsche life on a Scion budget. More about Chris

Enjoy reading about the "city that never sleeps?"
Try some of these novels that take place in the "Big Apple."
19th Century Fiction (These novels take place in New York City in the 1800s.)
Baker, Kevin
Paradise Alley, 2002.
At the height of the Civil War, what begins with strong words and a few broken bottles will, over the course of five days, escalate into the worst urban conflagration in American history. Hundreds of thousands of poor Irish immigrants smolder with resentment against a war and a president that have cost them so many of their young men. When word spreads throughout New York's immigrant wards that a military draft is about to be implemented -- a draft from which any rich man's son with $300 can buy an exemption -- trouble begins to spill into the streets.
Carr, Caleb
The Alienist, 1994.
The year is 1896, the place, New York City. On a cold March night New York Times crime reporter John Schuyler Moore is summoned to the East River by a former Harvard classmate Dr. Laszio Kreizler, a psychologist or "alienist." On the unfinished Williamsburg bridge, they view the mutilated body of a boy, a prostitute from one of Manhattan's infamous brothels. The newly appointed police commissioner, Theodore Roosevelt, enlists the two men in the murder investigation, counting on Kreizler's intellect and Moore's knowledge of NY's underworld.
Carr, Caleb
The Angel of Darkness, 1997.
Dr. Laszlo Kreizler, investigative journalist John Schuyler Moore, and Kreizler's assistant Stevie ``Stevepipe'' Taggert investigate a peculiarly dastardly crime. The year is 1897, and a Spanish diplomat's baby has been kidnapped. Suspicion falls on Elspeth Hunter, a nurse who is actually Libby Hatch, a malevolent gang moll and the suspected murderess of her own children. The pursuit, capture, and attempted conviction of Libby involve such notable historical figures as painter Albert Pinkham Ryder, women's-rights crusader Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Libby's defense attorney Clarence Darrow, and New York City Police Commissioner Theodore Roosevelt, who commandeers the US Navy to aid in the story's climactic pursuit. (Sequel to The Alienist.)
Christilian, J.D.
Scarlet Women, 1996.
The setting is New York City, the year 1871. A prostitute has been found in a warehouse, her throat slit. The cops don't have time to spend on the murder of a "scarlet woman," especially when they've got the Tammany Hall corruption scandal to worry about. So solving the crime falls to private investigator Harp. A former street kid who learned early to live by his wits with many connections among the city's poorest citizens, Harp excels at finding information in the city's subterranean reaches.
Suspension, 2000.
May 31, 1883, 3:55 p.m. Twenty thousand men, women, and children, their faces shining in the late afternoon sun, are strolling the Eighth Wonder of the World. The Brooklyn Bridge is open just a week, its promenade a magnet for the teeming masses of New York and Brooklyn. An engineering marvel of transcending beauty, the bridge is simply breathtaking. In precisely five minutes, it will fall. Seven desperate men, former Confederate soldiers turned saboteurs, have labored for years to destroy the bridge, which they saw as a symbol of hated Yankee supremacy. Sergeant Detective Tom Braddock is one step behind the conspirators. Working through a series of murderous dead-ends, Braddock has dogged the seven men from the cables of the bridge to the shadowy alleys of the Lower East Side and the back streets of Richmond, Virginia. Slowly, he has slowly drawn closer to the unthinkable truth, a truth that none can accept...
Doctorow, E.L.
Waterworks, 1994.
It is a city where every form of crime and vice flourishes, corruption is king, fabulous wealth stands on the shoulders of unspeakable want, and there are no limits to larceny. It is New York in 1871, where the disinherited son of a monstrous millionaire sees his dead father alive—and sets off a train of mystery and revelation that takes us into the darkest heart of evil and avarice.
Silvis, Randall
On Night's Shore, 2001.
The year is 1840 and New York City is captivated by the mysterious murder of a beautiful shopgirl. The discovery of the body of Mary Rogers in the Hudson River prompts a young journalist, Edgar Allan Poe to search for the truth behind an apparently motiveless crime. Joining him in his investigation is Augie Dubbins, an orphaned street urchin who becomes Poe's most trusted ally. Using intuition and rational thinking, Poe and Augie recreate the last days of the victim's secret life.
Early 20th Century (These novels take place in New York City from 1900-1950.)
Baker, Kevin
Dreamland, 1999.
From the decks of a steamship that brings Sigmund Freud to America for a lecture tour, hundreds of European immigrants strain for a glimpse of the promised land. As they approach, they see New York, the city of their dreams, being consumed by flames. But as they draw nearer, their despair turns to amazement as they realize their searing image of the New World is really the magical radiance of a million incandescent lights at Coney Island's Dreamland amusement parka sight so spectacular, so unearthly, they are sure they can only be passing through the gates of heaven....or hell.
Ducovny, Amram
Coney, 2000.
Coney Island, 1939. On the eve of World War II, fifteen-year-old Harry Catzker spends his after-school hours on his bike, picking up betting slips from Coney Island carnival freaks for the local bookie and racing his imaginary sworn enemy, German Captain Ziegenbaum, whose ship menaces the coastline. As the lights of the Cyclone and Luna Park glow in the Coney Island night, Harry finds a surrogate family in the freaks and low-lifes. A premature victim of Weltschmerz, Harry ponders life, art, philosophy, and politics with Aba, a Yiddish poet who boards with his family, yet he is unable to shake the dark foreboding of a disaster that finally materializes, changing his life utterly.
Hamill, Pete
Snow in August, 1997.
In the year 1947, Michael Devlin, eleven years-old and one hundred percent American-Irish, is about to forge an extraordinary bond with a refugee of war named Rabbi Judah Hirsch. Standing united against a common enemy, they will summon from ancient sources a power in desperately short supply in modern Brooklyn—a force that's forgotten by most of the world but is known to believers as magic.
Meyers, Annette
Murder Me Now, 2001.
Greenwich Village is decked with snow and mistletoe in December of 1920. Prohibition may be the law, but the speakeasies are crowded with writers, artists, friends, lovers...and, perhaps, a killer. Amid all the conviviality, the beautiful Olivia Brown is once again drawn into intrigue when a young nanny, employed by one of her friends, is found murdered. Even more mysterious is her pedigree. With the help of her downstairs tenant, private eye Harry Melville, Olivia's investigation reveals not only some dark family secrets, but a criminal organization called the Black Hand. Now the question remains: Did the young woman die at the hands of thugs, a family member, or worse...one of Olivia's friends?
Stashower, Daniel
The Floating Lady Murder, 2000.
It's difficult to gain the public's attention in turn-of-the-century New York--even if you are the greatest escape artist the world has ever seen. So the young performer who calls himself Harry Houdini must be content, for the time being, working for the internationally renowned Keller, the "Dean of American Magicians." But tragedy strikes at the inaugural performance of the master's most astonishing illusion, the Floating Lady, when Keller's levitating assistant plummets abruptly to the ground, apparently to her death. Yet an investigation soon reveals that it is drowning, and no fatal fall, that has killed the unfortunate young lady. An intriguing impossibility to be sure. And it is the great, albeit unsung, Houdini--with the aid of wife Bess and brother Dash--who must solve the deadly conundrum, leading them all into a maze of twisted schemes, grim deceptions, and bloodletting that is no mere stage fakery.
1960s New York
Skirts, 1994.
The scene is both exciting and dangerous: the New York bohemian subculture in the early 1960s. Archeology student Helene Elphrick desperately wants to shed both her controlling Jewish parents and her middle-class morality. Lonely and vulnerable, she is an easy mark for Zalman Finster, a Hasidic rabbi turned artist who introduces the giddy young woman to the avant-garde cultural scene and to a wide variety of mood-altering drugs. Helene travels through the wildly energetic bohemian counterculture of the day. In her forays to the Cedar Tavern, former hangout for Abstract Expressionists Willem de Kooning and Jackson Pollock, and Stanley's Bar, she is joined by her impressionable friends Victoria and Ruth, and the three easily succumb to posturing, fraud and much worse.
Plain, Belva
Her Father's House, 2002.
Donald Wolfe, a 25-year-old North Dakota native, comes to New York City in 1968 to practice law; five years later, he meets and falls for the captivating Lillian Morris. Marrying in haste, he repents big time when Lillian reveals herself to be disturbingly erratic. After she becomes pregnant, the two divorce, but when Donald judges his daughter, Bettina, to be neglected, he kidnaps her. Taking to the road, he invents a new past for himself and adopts the name Jim, renaming his daughter Laura. Many years later, the truth is revealed and Jim stands trial for kidnapping. Will Laura, now a young woman, be able to forgive her father his deception, which he claims was for her own good?
1980s New York
Mordden, Ethan
I've a Feeling We're Not in Kansas Anymore, 1983.
In the first volume of his acclaimed quartet of books on Manhattan gay life, Ethan Mordden introduces a small group of friends--Dennis Savage, Little Kiwi, Carlos, and the narrator, Bud--and chronicles their exploration of the new world of gay life and the new people they are in the process of becoming. The last three books in the trilogy are: Buddies (1985), Everybody Loves You (1988), and Some Men are Lookers (1997).
Barbara Probst
Smart Hearts in the City, 1992.
Katy Becker, a feisty, attractive Jewish woman in passionate middle age, is involved in a lawsuit against her brother-in-law; she believes he is cheating her out of a share of the family estate. Katy recalls her early years living on the edge of Harlem, her youthful fling with an ambitious young black man now prospering in California, and her wonderful summers spent at the splendid family estate on Long Island Sound. These memories are interwoven with events from the present: the dog-eat-dog worlds of contemporary (1980s) New York law and finance, a rather somber romance with a tough-guy millionaire whose boat is a showy extension of himself.

I hired Craig Parish to handle my divorce and custody case. I paid his high retainer and it was gone in a couple days. I kept getting bill after bill. A 3 min phone conversation of him telling me he needed a copy of some paperwork billed at $75! Then before we went to to courts he said I should mediate with my ex-wife first. He basically told me to give her everything she asked for and told me that the judge would do the same thing. He said I had no way to stop her from moving my son 5 states away and that the visitation schedule was "fair". I have talked to different attorneys since then and they have all told me the same thing... "File a complaint with the courts and sue him for any future legal fees because the divorce agreement was so short term that I would be back in court 18 months later". I can't believe how ridiculous his advice and his "representation" was! I would give him 0 stars if I could but he gets 1 by default. If you are considering hiring this man I would give you this advice, DON'T! He was a better attorney for my ex-wife than for me!

I've manually removed Aeon MQ 2 and let it default to Confluence which for a brief moment looked like it worked then it crashed again. Then I renamed my userdata directory and started fresh and it seems to work fine.
Would there be any reason why my ver 10 userdata is not compatible?
I've actually downgraded from eden months ago once before because it could not convert my mysql db from my server and that was before I started testing Ubuntu Precise(alpha) and for some reason cannot recompile it again.

My antenna was raised this morning when I saw a small item in the White Sox notebook by the Chicago Tribune's Mark Gonzales:
"Sox television announcer Steve Stone, who is in the midst of a multiyear contract, is expected to receive interest from other media outlets but would need permission to get out of his current pact."
Hmmm, what's that all about? I have covered team beats, and I know that item didn't come out of nowhere.
Then WSCR-AM 670, the White Sox's flagship station, played a clip of Stone as he signed off on their season finale Wednesday.
Stone said: "There are a lot of lessons to be learned, and one of them is that the clock is always ticking. You've got to enjoy what you do."
Was that a dig at his partner Ken Harrelson? There was a long pause and Harrelson said, "Alright.."
Stone then appeared on the McNeil and Spiegel Show on SCR. He was frank about his relationship with Harrelson, which definitely appears to be strained at best. And he wasn't definitive about whether he would be back with the Sox next year. Here are some of the highlights.
On returning to the Sox in 2013: I'm pretty sure I am, but you never know what next year will hold…(Harry Caray) used to say as you get older, time moves more quickly. You'd like to slow it down, but you can't. You have to enjoy what you're doing.
On working with Harrelson: When you have a partner in any business, you are going to have periods where some things are good and some not so good. Some periods where things are exhilarating and some when they are frustrating.
Hawk is the face of the franchise. The booth is named after him. He might be the ultimate fan. When things are not going so well, he gets grumpy. Grumpier than the normal person would get doing that particular job.
When things are going well, he's absolutely ecstatic. For those of us who don't have those phenomenal highs and exceptional lows, it becomes a bit difficult at times. But that's the kind of person he is.
I understand the game of baseball. Some of the times when things didn't go so well in the partnership were a direct result of how the team was doing at the time and how he felt stressed about this thing starting to slip away.
Do you want to be back with the Sox?: I want baseball and broadcasting to be a part of my life. (McNeil then pressed him for an answer).
I have a contract with the White Sox. They've been wonderful to me. I fully expect nothing will change.
Our job is really easy when things are going well. For 118 days, when the team was in first place, our job was easy. Our difficulty came when things get negative and the team didn't perform the way it should or you expected. That's the time when you have to go to the vaudeville act.
I've known Harrelson and Stone for a long time. Both men are very good at what they do. They also have significant egos and have a certain way of doing things.
Did that interview sound like someone who wants to return to the same situation in 2013? At the very least, both men will have to go through some couples counseling.
Stay tuned.
Here's the podcast. The Stone segment comes at the 25-minute mark.

You remember the advice. Follow the yellow brick road. You probably remember how to "ease on down the road," too.
On May 21 audiences will experience a new, blended interpretation of the beloved classics "The Wizard of Oz" and "The Wiz." Beginning at 7:30 p.m., Tacoma's Pantages Theater will transform into the fantasyland known as "The Wiz: Cascadia."
Featuring choreography by Nicholas Leichter Dance and score by Monstah Black with added musical selections, "The Wiz: Cascadia" is a new full-length modern dance musical. The New York-based dance company will perform only two West Coast showings – one in Tacoma – of "The Wiz: Cascadia."
The show will bring big, theatrical dance and kinetic choreography with a new spin on the classic film "The Wizard of Oz" and the 1978 movie musical, "The Wiz." The choreography pays homage to "The Wizard of Oz" and brings new interpretations of Quincy Jones songs from "The Wiz."
Each major production of both stories examines ideas of hope, fantasy, dreams and home during times of major political and economic change. "The Wiz: Cascadia" celebrates urban sub-cultures by showcasing an array of different dance, performance and musical styles from hip-hop to funk, postmodern to drag and contemporary to psychedelic.
"What we're creating is this wild fantasy world, but also showing the basic needs of humanity," said Nicholas Leichter, the show's artistic director. "These are timeless issues and the subject matter is things we are continually interested in."
As choreographer/artistic director, Leichter has taught throughout the United States and at festivals in Africa, Asia, Canada, and Eastern and Western Europe, and he has been on faculty at Tisch School of the Arts and the American Dance Festival.
Founded in 1996, Nicholas Leichter Dance has performed in more than 50 cities in 17 states and 12 countries and has created more than 25 works. The company is sending about 13 dancers to perform in the Tacoma show this month.
David Fischer, executive director for Broadway Center for the Performing Arts, said the theater staff first heard about "The Wiz: Cascadia" two years ago, while visiting New York.
"I was impressed by the artistry and fusion of styles," Fischer said. "It's a bull's eye in modern performance work. I loved it and thought it would be such a good show for Tacoma."
In recent years, theater staff has aggressively sought out talent that would appeal to wider, more diverse audiences. In 2005, diverse programming made up about 12 percent of the theater's shows. This year, that number has skyrocketed to more than 50 percent – a feat Fischer is proud of.
"Whenever we can find the right fit to do really diverse programs, we try to take it on," he added.
Each variation of "The Wiz" boasts a different name and offers something unique to each city, Leichter said.
"We try to give everyone something a little special," he said. "Because what makes this story so universal is that you can look inside yourself and always find home wherever it is."
He added that the show is suitable for families, however there are some adult themes.
"For the most part, I think people can expect terrific singing, great musicians and a wild creative fantasy," Leichter said. "They can also expect killer, killer dancing."
"The Wiz: Cascadia" tickets are on sale now for $29, $39, $49 and $59. Tickets may be purchased through the Broadway Center Box Office at (253) 591-5894, in person at 901 Broadway in Tacoma or online at www.broadwaycenter.org.

Between this skeleton and the pituitary body the important portion of the brain formed by the occipital lobes takes its origin.
Injections of the infundibular portion of the pituitary body.
The pituitary body itself is lodged in a cavity of the sphenoid bone called the pituitary fossa.
It is difficult to avoid injury to the pituitary body embedded in the basisphenoid bone.
Under the fore-brain appears an epiblastic involution giving rise both to the mouth and to the pituitary body.
In a few cases it accompanies disease of the pituitary body, which is located in the under surface of the brain.
The pituitary body is in fact an organ derived from the epiblast of the stomodum.
The origin of the pituitary body from the roof of the mouth was first described by Rathke .
The coxal excretory organs at the base of the endognaths remain and become the pituitary body.
He says, As the pituitary body is an integral part of the brain, so are the suprarenal bodies part of the sympathetic system.

Original journalism from the Center's OpenSecrets Blog
Huntsman Campaign Manager Resigns, West Uses Insults to Solicit Donations and More in Capital Eye Opener: July 22
July 22, 2011 | Rep. Allen West (R-Fla.) is playing the victim in attempt to raise more campaign cash. A fund-raising email with subject line "vile, despicable, and unprofessional," calls DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz, an "attack dog for the 'vast left wing conspiracy,'" and says West is the subject of those attacks.
Oil and Gas Contributions Still Rising in 2010, Republicans Receiving Bulk of Industry Cash
October 1, 2010 | This spring and summer, hundreds of millions of gallons of oil seeped into the Gulf of Mexico. Simultaneously, debate raged in Congress about ocean drilling, energy independence, cap and trade legislation and a shift away from fossil-fuel energy sources. Nevertheless, congressional candidates and federal political committees nationwide have raked in more than $17 million from the oil and gas industry so far during the 2010 election cycle -- a number on pace to easily exceed that of the most recent midterm election four years ago.
Follow the Money From Energy-Related Interests With New 'Fueling Washington' Tools
August 27, 2010 | Want to know which sitting member of Congress has received the most money from the oil and gas industry? Which lawmaker has received the most from environmentalists? The alternative energy industry? Now you can find that information in one centralized location on OpenSecrets.org -- presented with sort-able and down-loadable options for your convenience.
House Committee Approves New Campaign Finance Regulations, Transparency Requirements in DISCLOSE Act
May 21, 2010 | The committee hearing room was crowded as the House Administration Committee met on Thursday afternoon to markup a bill that has become a top priority for congressional Democrats and the Obama administration. After three and a half hours of debate, the DISCLOSE Act was ultimately reported favorably out of the committee on a 6-3 party-line vote.
Down But Not Quite Out: An Examination of Insurance Giant AIG's Waning Clout
December 3, 2009 | Insurance giant AIG's political clout is waning as fast as its finances. Since its near-collapse and government bailout last fall, AIG disbanded its lobbying team. It hasn't donated a dollar from its political action committee this year. Furthermore, contributions from individual AIG employees since January are merely a sliver of what they've been in previous cycles -- although a few notable politicians retain financial or political ties to the embattled company. Among these lawmakers is Sen. Chris Dodd (D-Conn.), the chairman of the Senate Banking Committee, who pledged to return contributions from AIG employees who got post-bailout bonuses but has nonetheless retained tens of thousands of dollars from them given before the bailout.
Supporters of Moderate Republican in NY-23 Special Election Weigh Where to Place Their Loyalties After Candidate Quits
November 2, 2009 | With Republican Diedre Scozzafava ending her bid in for Congress and endorsing her Democratic opponent Bill Owens, Owens and Conservative Party nominee Doug are now vying to win over Scozzafava's supporters, including those who lent financial support to her campaign.
Committee Members Speak Out–Or Stay Mum–On Health Care

In Defense Spending Battle, Lawmakers Seek Funds for Top Donors
April 27, 2009 | Members of both the House and Senate defense appropriations subcommittees are slated to meet as early as this week to mark up the $83.4 billion supplemental request from the Obama administration. In preparation, some lawmakers have already been lobbying their colleagues to support requests that will benefit defense contractors in their home states--companies that also help fill the campaign coffers of many members of Congress.
Obama, Ney and DeLay Also Among Stanford's Investments
February 18, 2009 | As the story behind the embattled investment company Stanford Financial Group develops, we thought we'd take an even closer look at the seeds the company may have tried to plant in Washington via campaign contributions. When looking at ALL lawmakers to collect money from the company's PAC and employees (not just members of the current Congress), some additional, important names appear at the top of the recipient list.
Embattled Lobbying Firm PMA Targeted Members of Defense Committees
February 12, 2009 | The close ties between Rep. John Murtha and a Washington lobbying firm raided by the FBI have put the powerful Pennsylvania Democrat under greater scrutiny. The lobbyists at PMA Group have been Murtha's fifth most generous campaign donor over time, but he is just one of 284 members of the 111th Congress who have collected money from the firm, which specializes in securing federal earmarks for its clients. In total, PMA Group's employees and its political action committee have given current members of Congress $3.4 million since 1989.

Tourism Hotline : 1912(Hotline service is only available when dialed within Sri Lanka)
Sri Lanka's age-old culture is one seeped in traditional arts and craft. In modern day Sri Lanka, these traditions live on.
Batik – Adapted from the Indonesian classic art, Batik gained elitist status in medieval Sri Lank, featuring prominently in the Kandyan Court in the form of banners, wall hangings and the ceremonial dress of the nobility. Today most batiks artists are located in the Western province, Colombo in particular. Some young and enterprising designers have taken the art-form to high fashion featuring their exclusive creations in the global fashion ramps.
Handloom Weaving – Historically, hand-loom weaving has its roots in the Kandyan region, principally in the production of robes for the Buddhist monks. Today, the art is practices mainly in the central province and with the encouragement of the Government, modern accessories like curtains, furnishing materials, linens and dress fabrics are produced to the highest international standards.
Lace work – A legacy of the Portuguese, lace work was introduced to Sri Lanka in the middle of the 16th Century and further developed by the Dutch. The growing demand for lace work internationally has seen the establishment of four National Craft Council training centres in the south of the country where lace work is famous. Artisans in the Galle Fort, weave snow-white reams of intricate lace using the dying technique of Beeralu.
Wooden masks – Sri Lanka has a long tradition of mask- making, with most masks featuring carved images of demons, divine beings, legendary characters and animals. In early times they were used as part of "devil dancing' rituals to exorcise spirits and illness, a traditional ritual that is still prevalent amongst communities in rural Sri Lanka. Masks also feature prominently in traditional Sri Lankan theatre. About 15,000 museums around the world house Sri Lankan mask collections, among them the British Museum. Majority of the mask-making artisans are found in the southern and western provinces.
Pottery – Sri Lanka's long unbroken pottery tradition goes back over the centuries to the proto-historic period, or the time predating recorded history. Terracotta artisans in contemporary Sri Lanka create a large and varied range of decorative pieces in addition to the more traditional religious and utilitarian pottery. The majority of pottery artisans live in the western and central provinces.
Coconut shell-ware – The ancient craft holds an exalted position among all the crafts in Sri Lanka. many early 'water dippers' are now collectors items, some with fine quality, silver-mounted carvings. The artisans specializing in the craft are found in the western coastal region.

Homemade Taco Seasoning Packet Replacement
Recipe by Debs Recipes
This mild taco seasoning replaces one of the store-bought packets. It is super-speedy to use with only four ingredients. No preservatives, no sugar, no msg, no fuss!
Top Review by Carol B.
I'm sorry - I just can't agree with the positive reviews. I followed the recipe exactly and was very disappointed. There was absolutely no taste. I needed a mild flavor so seeing it listed as "mild" didn't bother me. I was concerned at first because all I had was smoked paprika. I ended up increasing the ingredients called for and adding cumin, garlic powder and onion powder. This did round out the flavors while keeping it mild. I increased the chili powder by 1/2 t, added 1/2 t of cumin, garlic, onion powder and 1 T of salsa. I definitely needed the salt.

While educators have been busy trying to understand and teach Millennials and Generation Y over the past several years, a new generation of mobile natives has been growing up.
Generation Z, which includes those born after 1995, now fills our primary schools, and they've brought their mobile habits with them.
To give you a better understanding of these students, including the role mobile devices play in their home and school lives, we've put together an infographic, titled Generation Z: Growing and Learning with Mobile.
Studies show that, by the year 2017, the number of smartphone users in the US will reach 80 percent – triple the percentage of users in 2011. In the UK, this number is set to reach slightly more than 80 percent, while in China and India, the percentages are set to rise at a slower rate.
By 2017, four countries will boast the highest smartphone ownership in the world:
Globally, mobile learning is growing at a rate of 18.2 percent per year, suggesting that learning organisations will need to adopt appropriate technologies in order to keep up with growing demand.
Today's students use mobile devices for everything from checking grades to writing papers. Here's a sampling of grade 8 students who use a mobile phone as part of class at least once a week:
Studies show that standardised test results are higher in classes where students have access to mobile devices.
In one case, test scores of low-income students climbed as much as 30 percent after being given access to smartphones – an increase attributed to the fact that students were able to keep connected with teachers and classmates, even while at home.

"That really benefited us in the last series against L.A., because they had a lot of travel and they went seven games against Toronto," Muller said. "So there are all these things that you don't have control over. Even if you're the best team, it doesn't mean you're going to win."
Some of the characteristics shared by this year's upstart playoff contenders – their youth, their eagerness and the fact that they don't appear intimidated, even by the deeper résumés of some of the teams they'll play – might go a long way to creating upsets.
Healy noted how loose the Islanders were before Game 7 against Pittsburgh: "I can remember [defenceman] Darius Kasparaitis, before Game 7. The Penguins' anthem singer was practising outside our dressing room, and Kasparaitis was in the middle of our dressing room, with a hockey stick for a microphone, pretending he was the anthem singer, singing the anthem in the four languages that he knew. He was this young, 19-year-old kid who didn't get captured by the moment. It was, 'oh well, I'm just going to go out and play a game.' That's just how it was. That's why it worked."
According to Healy, coach Al Arbour gets a lot of the credit for orchestrating the Islanders' upset over the Penguins because he instructed his team to avoid the big-picture thoughts and break the game down into small, manageable increments.
"Al Arbour basically said, 'listen, can you tie a shift with Lemieux?' Don't win a shift, just tie it. Just don't have him do any damage on that particular shift. And then he said the same to the next guy, and the next guy and then soon, the first period is over. Now do it again. Then it realistically came down to the last shift. We had tied all the shifts we could and we needed one guy to score and it was David Volek.
"So that was our philosophy: 'you're not going to win, you're just going to tie' and if you do that, you have a chance at the end of the day."Report Typo/Error

Travel along with the most feared man in Southern Maryland. So notorious even the mob backed down. Cops who went after him found themselves in federal court on the losing side. His name is Ken Rossignol and he packs a fully loaded Smith & Corona (or at least the digital equivalent).
Ken's ammo: words. He's a champion of the First Amendment and an old fashioned pain in the ass. The story of St. Mary's today is one about advocacy journalism coming to a community where the press wasn't known for acting this way. No more go-along to get along. There wasn't a hand providing nourishment that Rossignol wouldn't take a little flesh and muscle from. At one point or another Ken pissed off just about everyone, including a couple governors of Maryland and me.

Sold Out $19.99
2014 vintage is available for $18.99
Oliverhill Red Silk Shiraz 2011
Syrah/Shiraz from McLaren Vale, Australia
Winemaker's Notes
Oliverhill Red Silk Shiraz displays complex fruit and sexy, silky tannins. Perhaps it's the old age and low yields of the vines, or maybe the special care and attention fruit receives in the winery. The essence of McLaren Vale lives in our wine-complex fruit and sexy, silky tannins. This is who Oliverhill is and they're not about to change! Enjoy!
Critical Acclaim
The Wine Advocate - "Deep purple black in color, the 2011 Red Silk Shiraz is scented of macerated black plums, crushed blackberries and black currants with underlying black pepper and Indian spice hints. Medium to full-bodied with plenty of youthful black berry and pepper flavors on offer in the mouth, it has a solid backbone of medium to firm grainy tannins and refreshing acidity, finishing with good length."
Oliverhill Winery
Oliverhill is a small boutique winery (McLaren Vale has been refined to as the spiritual home of the small winery in Australia) that specializes in premium quality limited production reds. Specifically, a single vineyard Shiraz, "Jimmy Section", coming from a small 5-acre plot planted nearly 30 years ago an old vine Grenache, "Bradey Block", made from vines up to 80 years old and a Cabernet Sauvignon produced from the "Jimmy Section" vineyard. The Grenache and the Shiraz represent the classic South Australian style, big and juicy with sweet black fruits, brood shouldered with substantial palate presence, yet maintaining balance and exceptional fruit intensity. The Cabernet Sauvignon although not as big and mouth filling texturally maintains noted fruit intensity with a long and persistent finish. All 3 reds are produced in an extremely limited format with total production hovering around 1000 cases total. The Millers, producing handcrafted wines that are truly artisan in style, will never produce a lot of wine but what they do produce will always be of the highest quality. View all Oliverhill Wines
About McLaren Vale
McLaren Vale is home to the oldest Australian vineyard, with grapes planted in 1838. It's a coastal area with the Indian Ocean bordering the west, which contributes a cooling factor that prevents the grapes from getting too hot. In all, the climate is a perfect one for the vines.
Notable FactsIn McLaren Vale, there are vines as far as the eye can see. As in other parts of Australia, Shiraz and Grenache are the most-planted grapes of the region. While red rules, whites are able to hold their own here too. With the warm yet reasonable Mediterranean climate, white grapes like Chardonnay, Semillon and even some Sauvignon Blanc grow well. The wines are round and smooth and the producers in the region are excellent.
About AustraliaLike the United States, which is about the same size, Australia's winemaking regions are huddled into one or two pockets of the country. The state of South Australia, which produces about 60% of the country's wine, also has the most wineries and sub-regions, including McLaren Vale, Clare Valley, Coonawarra and Barossa Valley. New South Wales is home to the Hunter Valley, while the smaller, southern state of Victoria is best known for theYarra Valley. Head way west to the very large state of Western Australia and you'll find the tiny region of Margaret River at the southern tip.

Synkinematic Carbonate Fracture-Sealing Cements in Opening-Mode Fractures: Characteristics and Models
Opening-mode fractures in carbonate and siliciclastic rocks commonly contain carbonate cements. These cements can precipitate during (synkinematic) or after (postkinematic) fracture opening. In fractured dolostones, synkinematic cement is typically dolomite, whereas in limestones the synkinematic cement is normally calcite. Quartz is the dominant synkinematic cement in sandstones, although synkinematic carbonate cements have also been observed. In this contribution, we examine the morphology and internal structure of synkinematic carbonate cements in a variety of fractured reservoir rocks using SEM-based cathodoluminescence (SEM-CL), secondary- and backscattered-electron images, and element mapping. We also present image captures of geometric crystal growth models for dolomite fracture fill in fractured dolostones, and compare them with natural dolomite cement structures.
A systematic, size-dependent relationship governs the amount and internal structure of synkinematic cement. Narrow fractures seal completely, in some cases showing crack-seal texture that indicates multiple incremental openings. We have observed crack-seal texture in calcite, dolomite, and ferroan dolomite cements. Wider fractures are bridged and lined with cement and can preserve considerable effective porosity. Dolomite bridges commonly have rhombic shapes that our models have been able to replicate. In addition, the crystal growth model predicts morphologies that are analogous to features in SEM-CL images that superficially appear to be caused by crystal dissolution.

- Concepts for Conceptual Linking:
- agency- the ability to make decisions on things that affect you
- structural context- the lifeworld of social group, family, institutions, and the environmental and architectural patterns that permeate that lifeworld.
- interdependence- an inextricable mixture of factors of both individual agency and group and structural context out of which our reality is constructed
- advocacy- taking a position as forcefully as you can within legal and ethical limits
- fact pattern- the set of facts, determined by the court to be legally true, meaning that the trier of facts believed that these were the actual facts, that make up the significant elements of the case.
- dualistic - an adjective expressing an either/or quality: good or bad, rich or poor, sinner or saint (I know, I know. Sinner and saint aren't adjectives. Glad you noticed.) The problem with the dualistic perspective is one of categorical thinking, that is, thinking which assumes that you must belong in one of the available categories, when, in fact, we, as humans, rarely do that. For example, male or female. We've grown used to thinking of ourselves as either male or female, when in fact, we share many of the traits . See Minow on categorical thinking, and/or verstehen on the dilemma of trying to quantify and categorize in the social sciences.
- Discuss the objective of public discourse when the substantive issue is one religious group's refusal to accept another's belief system.
Consider the conundrum of how we shall decide who is right or wrong. Is that our objective? See Advocacy in Public Discourse.
- How does my training as a lawyer affect my responsibility to aid Agnes in her presentation of a validity claim for women on welfare?
Consider the requisite training for skilled argument. Consider the accessibility of such training to women on welfare. And then consider good faith and what we mean by that. See Advocacy in Public Discourse.
- Where is the social injustice of saying that if someone would work and study hard then they could speak standard and persuasive English and make their validity claims heard in good faith?
Consider the cost in invested time, money, and effort to polish the skills of public persuasion. Consider the cognitive dissonance aspect of dividing one's attention, and consider the loss of humility and the arrogance that can set in as one acquires such professional skills. See Advocacy in Public Discourse.
- Would it be accurate to call our traditional media "corporate capitalist media"? Does the term suggest that socialist media would be more open, more truthful?
Consider what the term "capitalist" tells you about the economic structure of the media. See Advocacy and Dominant Discourse.

Love the Look: Emma Stone Radiates in Red Leather on 'Leno' (PHOTOS)
Emma Stone may have traded in her red locks for blonde, but she still looks radiant in red!
The Amazing Spider-Man star — who is dating her costar Andrew Garfield – appeared on The Tonight Show With Jay Leno on Tuesday, June 5, in an exquisite Monique Lhuillier red leather dress. The 23-year-old actress topped off her look with red cap-toed Christian Louboutin pumps, a trend becoming quite popular on the red carpet.
What do you think of this lady in red's style sense?
Play celeb stylist in the comments! Take a look at the below clip of Emma on Tonight Show, as even Leno loved her outfit. As soon as she came out, Jay gushed, "That's a great dress, you look good!"
Colored leather made a scene in a big way these past seasons, which is evident in our Trend Spotting below:

Hi To Everyone,
I just want to ask on how to cure fever naturally for children and I would like to ask on how to have a healthy children without having them sick. My daughter who is 11 years old, is having a fever for two days already. I have given her a tablet medicine but the fever still occur after 3 hours of taking the medicine. I'm worried if she will not get fine until Monday then she'll be absent in her class and she doesn't want to make an absent because she belongs to the top 10 students of their classroom. I hope somebody could give me ideas. I'd be thankful to read those advice.

From per month
Click here for more details
Sinn Watch UX GSG 9 - EZM 2B Bracelet 403.031 Bracelet. Rescuing the hijacked ñLandshutî aircraft on October 18, 1977 in Mogadishu made the German GSG 9 (Grenzschutzgruppe 9) special forces world famous. Just as legendary as the reputation of the anti terrorism unit of the German federal police is the diving watch that their maritime unit wears during its missions. Together with GSG 9, we developed the EZM 2 mission timer in the mid 1990s. This timepiece met the special functional requirements of the divers exactly and incorporated the successful features of the 403 HYDRO diving watch. Now this service watch has a worthy successor that can be purchased by anyone: the UX GSG 9 (EZM 2B) diving watch. The diving watch incorporates proven features such as the HYDRO Technology for perfect readability even under water and freedom from reflection at any angle, a large black dial with white hands and 5 minute indices, especially visible at 12 o clock (mission timer design), a case made of seawater resistant submarine steel and a captive diver's bezel with TEGIMENT Technology. The position of the crown at 10 o clock to prevent pressure on the back of the hand is a feature, as is the GSG 9 logo on the dial. Supplier Model Number 403.031 Bracelet

Apache works, mostly
Much of the time the Apache system works. You have interested people who start a project, get some code working, then propose it to Apache. One of these meritorious members shepherds it into the organization and helps build a community of developers. The "committers" on the project do their own stunts -- the bulk of the marketing and evangelizing.
The Apache name carries a lot of weight and is helpful. There was a brief time when another project had temporarily surpassed POI in capabilities on Excel. This could have been fatal. While POI's scope was broader and included Word and other file formats -- arguably why we fell behind -- Excel was always the most important. The Apache name kept us afloat until we surpassed the other project. It is mostly dead now, and POI continues to be the default in reading/writing Office files from Java.
If you don't care about making a profit and want to attract contributors and users, Apache can be helpful. But Apache is also a big weight on any project. The Apache system for making decisions takes a lot of time, and it encourages the kinds of fights that probably don't need to happen. Projects need leaders, but Apache robs leaders of the semiautocratic power sometimes helpful to keep projects on track. Instead, the leader must become more of a community organizer. Some software developers are good at becoming community organizers, but most ... not so much.
This is not to say that any open source project leader, even outside Apache, can truly be autocratic. Open source allows people to "vote with their feet" -- to leave a project and start their own. Apache's system doesn't make it any less likely they will do so; it just makes it harder for leaders to herd cats.
Board action tends to fail to produce community
The worst Apache projects are those where the board takes action, often in private, and simply announces its decision, sometimes embargoing members from talking about it. Generally these projects were donated by a single company, consisting mainly of that company's developers and possibly allies or business partners. These projects tend to eventually fail.
There are successes as well. Generally, where IBM or others have used Apache to establish a standard, these projects have succeeded. Ironically, I don't think they've usually been successful from a "community" standpoint, but at establishing a standard. You can see successes in the myriad XML and Web services libraries.
The clearest example of failure is Apache Harmony. When IBM pulled out, the project folded. There are earlier examples. Apache Beehive was entirely a BEA project. It really ended up being not much more than a dump and run. Geronimo, for example, was reportedly taken directly under board control because of its lack of diversity. Geronimo also has a declining number of releases per year, and if you look at the LinkedIn profiles of people, you'll realize it is directly based on employment at IBM.

I have found finally the main cause of the problem - 3rd network
interface enabled in Site 2. But not the bug of course. On one end (Site
2) I had enabled all 3 network interfaces and their network was divided
to office and shop. On the other end (Site 1) I had the same board (ALIX
2D3) but only 2 interfaces enabled.
Just repeating: When connecting from PC2 (office network) in Site 2 thru
tunnel to the PC1 in Site 1 using the RDP, it crashed many times (half
of screen loaded, next connection attempt, second half, sometimes
finished on 5th or 10th attempt). It was working fine when connecting
from PC2 to PC1 (opposite direction). When I disabled the tunnel and
used PPTP from PC1 to Site 2, it was working fine and 2–3 times faster
on the same connection (measured by copying large file between sites).
CPU usage on both ends was still 10 – 15 percent. All traffic was
allowed on the firewall.
When I joined both the networks in Site 2 together and disabled the
LAN2, it started to work. Not breaking the RDP anymore. The file
transfer speed was still the same (I didn't have time to test it more
than few minutes), but the communication was reliable.
I'm using the
I just wanted you to know about the problem and resolution.
Thank you all for your help.

If you're lucky, you might be getting a new e-reader as a holiday gift this year. 2010's "Year of the Tablet" might have fizzled but e-readers (led by the Amazon Kindle and Barnes & Noble Nook and supplemented by hardware that doubles as an e-reader, such as Apple's iPad and just about every smartphone sold this year) seem to have quietly gained a lot of traction. Back in November the NY Times ran an article that claimed e-readers were going to be a hot gift this holiday season.
[ Get news and reviews on tech toys in ITworld's personal tech newsletter]
But apparently there's a problem. Come Christmas morning there will be all these empty e-readers under the tree. People are going to need to fill them with e-books. And unlike good old dead tree tomes, e-books are confusing and slightly frightening. At least that's what Random House would have you believe. To help the dazed and confused gift recipients gain clarity, Random House has prepared (ta-da!) an e-book titled The eBook Insider. Yes, it's an e-book about e-books...very meta. Well, to be perfectly honest if you follow that link it's just a PDF, but starting sometime today it should also be available on your Kindle, Nook, Kobo, etc. The eBook Insider will help readers find the kinds of e-books they'll enjoy reading. A lot of these books are (surprise!) available from Random House. I'm sure The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo will be featured prominently because you just can't avoid that book these days. In a blog post at the NY Times, Random House's Anne Messitte is quoted as saying:
"With so many people receiving an e-reader for the first time on Christmas, one of the things they're going to want to do is go looking for the books they want to read, and we think it's an ideal moment to really begin helping a reader curate the collection of e-books that they want."
Pardon my dismissive snort. This is just the kind of thing that e-books don't need: special treatment. If non-technical people actually are slightly confused by their new e-readers, a volume like The eBook Insider is just going to reinforce any misconceptions they have. Do these same readers need Random House helping them 'curate' their collection of books when they shop at Amazon or walk into a Barnes & Noble brick & mortar store? Of course not. Pretty much every e-reader comes with some kind of e-book store already associated with it, and all these stores have the same kind of book-finding tools that print bookstores have. This is just an example of a marketing team trying to spread disinformation. By offering a title that helps readers find e-books, they're implying that somehow e-books are hard to find, but not to worry, here are some Random House e-books to get you started. Most people (I hope) won't be taken in by this ploy, but some of them will. Personally I suggest you steer e-reader gift recipients away from this "helpful" volume and instead let them find e-books the same way they've always found good books to read: best seller lists, friend recommendations or just browsing the store. Shame on Random House for this stunt!

Disney jumps ship on next 'Narnia'. "The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader" will have to sail without Disney.
