Our photo session with Hannah

I guess that I can now formally be classified as a lazy blogger.
There are lots and lots of reasons that I've really slacked off on blogging responsibly this year.
But I know that no one cares to listen to my reasons because they're not so much reasons as they are excuses.
And no one likes to listen to a bunch of excuses.
So that's not why I titled this post "reasons".
I thought that I would do what lazy bloggers do...
post some pictures with not too many words.
And so as a follow-up to last weekend's visit to meet Radar's sister Hannah & her family, I leave you with some of the many, many reasons that Radar grew to love his big sister during our short visit.
Reason #31 - She knows that playdough art should always be taken very seriously.
Reason #77 - She can match his expressions without even trying.
Reason #112 - She lets him do the driving.
We should be getting the rest of our professional pictures in the next few days and I'll post a link to the photographers site to ask for your help in picking some of the best!
Lots of love,
Titi and Radar

Although Tia Sara did not specifically put a $ figure on her wager, I'm going to assume that she was jumping on Marco's coattails and making a $5 bet on whether or not Radar would use his new bed.
$5 + $5 = $10
Pay up!!!!
Now granted, I have been spending at least part of the night on the floor next to his bed in case he wakes up and freaks out, but each night has gotten easier and last night I slept in my bed all night (while only getting up to check on him about 7 times)! And yes, I constantly arrange the pillows around him so that he won't bump his little head or feet on the wooden sides. So, in short, Marco was right that this has been much harder on me, but all in all I'd call "Operation Maybe He'll Sleep in his own Bed if it's a Car" a success!
Now - as to Tia's remark regarding the next post - setting aside this post, I PROMISE another post tomorrow (or maybe even late tonight)! Why? Well, because late this afternoon we hop on an airplane and we go to meet Radar's half sister, Hannah!
Ok, more later!
Lots of love,
Titi and Radar

Talk:Main Page
Since their is much excitement about this distro - it might be nice to add RSS feeds to your Main Page, Recent changes, & Roadmap pages so progress can be tracked without visiting your web site....
Hi can someone please do something with 2 YEARS OLD!!!!! CUPS article (its almost impossible to make it work right), half of article is obsolete (for example command lppasswd no longer working anymore).... thanks ...
Hello Anonymous A link to the RSS feed is available from the Special:RecentChanges page. Its in the upper right corner. That might get you started... Nangel 13:31, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
site not working as it should
hey there,
harry here, just a small bit of info: http://alpinelinux.org doesn't work, it redirects? to http://www.alpinelinux.org/mediawiki but that gives you a 404. think it's a good idea to fix that! ;)
you should also update the kernel patch of the vserver-grsec kernel, because of the latest root exploit in the vanilla kernel. (it isn't really exploitable when you have UDEREF enabled, but still corrupts kernel memory) also, there's a fix for some applications that triggers a bug_on in the kernel because of an error in the vanilla kernel that's patched here too. one last thing: i shouldn't enable all the chroot protections in the vserver default, because vserver uses chroot quite a lot, so you should be careful wit what you enable/disable e.g. chroot_caps, chroot_double, chroot_mount, chroot_findtask, chroot_chmod should be disabled to make things in vserver more... well... workable
just my 2 cents ;)
(look at http://people.linux-vserver.org/~harry/_README_ for more info on the what not to enable in the chroot restrictions grsec has built-in)
Broken Links
Several of the image links on the main page are broken, namely: Tutorials, Support, Contribute, Development, and Misc. The words link to the proper pages, but the images do not. -- Ttrask 18:14, 21 June 2010 (UTC)
Fixed. Thanks. --Ncopa 02:56, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

The Mayans apparently predicted that 21 December 2012 is the 'end date', when our world is finished, or at least begins a totally new phase of either good or evil. There seems to be a little bit of confusion on an accurate interpretation. But 'end date' seems to be the undisputed phrase relating to our world tomrrow. As millions of people believe it, and are preparing for it, there is a lot of fear around.
Thoughts of catastrophes usually concentrate the mind, though they can also lead to panic, fear and mindless activity. Whether you believe it or not, what would today mean for you, and what would you wish to do the most? How would you spend this last day?

Kuwait hangs maid murderers
The authorities in Kuwait have executed three Bangladeshi men convicted of raping and murdering a Sri Lankan maid during a burglary.
Mohammad Zahar Abdul Sattar, Anwar al-Zamaan and Anwar Khan Mohammad were hanged despite appeals from the Bangladeshi Prime Minister, Khaleda Zia, and international human rights groups.
The execution was carried out behind closed doors but later, for the first time in 20 years, the public was allowed to view the bodies, still hanging from the gallows.
"This achieves public deterrence," said Prosecutor General Hamed al-Othman after the hangings. "No doubt, this will cut down on crime in our country."
Hundreds of Kuwaiti citizens and expatriates, including several children, watched as a doctor pronounced the men dead and the nooses were removed from their necks.
The BBC's Heba Saleh said the move appeared to be an effort to assuage public anger over a perceived increase in violent crime in the country.
"We are naturally shocked," Zahurul Huq , a spokesman for the Bangladeshi foreign ministry, told the French news agency AFP in Dhaka. "We are trying to bring the bodies of the victims to Bangladesh."
The London-based human-rights group Amnesty International pleaded with Kuwait last week not to carry out the executions.
The three men were convicted of raping and murdering the maid at her employer's home in 1996.
In 2001, an appeals court overturned their life sentences and condemned the men to death for their crime.
The Kuwaiti Government did re-examine the case for two weeks after a recent appeal from the Bangladeshi prime minister, officials in Dhaka said.
Kuwait has executed 21 people since the Gulf War ended in 1991.

| 1.It is my belief that the 'gluten-free' food label should be reserved for products that have no gluten in them. I have had reactions to foods where the ingredients did not contain gluten, but were processed in plant that processed wheat.
2. To identify foods that contain gluten is a time consuming process. I read every label. If a food has more general listings such as 'modified food starch', 'artifical flavoring' or 'vegtatable celluose' I will not purchase the food. I frequently consult the gluten-free product resource published by the Celiac Sprue Foundation before purchasing foods.
3. Of the processed foods that I purchase 75% carry a 'gluten free' label. I mostly purchase fresh fruits and vegtables however.
4. 'Gluten-free' on the label definitely influences my choice in purchase. With foods or brands that I have not previously purchased this would be a major deciding feature. I would not be sure if there was some potential source of indirect contamination.

'Chaos is my Name' is a truly different beastie to what you'd expect. Even if you've heard the member's past work (Khanate and Thorr's Hammer being the most notable, I imagine), you will be put off by this. Sure, like both aforementioned bands, it is slow, and has some crazy vocals. Think you can take it? Think again.
This album, as evidenced by the song titles, is meant to be listened to in one sitting. People might find this a challenge, but, personally, I think it's way too short. Because of these two points, I'll avoid referring to single tracks except for the following exceptions. Some of the tracks can be slow, such as 'II' and 'VI', but they're more on the ambient side rather than drone doom. These juxtapose heavily with tracks like 'I' and 'III', which are essentially, directionless noise. And by the last sentence, I mean it in the nicest way possible.
The noisier tracks are, put simply, nothing short of incredible. Droning notes are interrupted by rapid-fire bursts of distorted guitar, which will probably remind you of James Plotkin's previous work in electronic acts such as Atomsmasher and Phantomsmasher. These are complimented nicely by Tim's drumming, which at times is reminiscent of Jazz fusion, and other times grindcore. What makes this even better, though, is Miss Gammelsaeter. Nothing she has done previously can prepare you for this. They're not like the chanting she done on Sunn O)))'s "Gates of Ballard", nor are they straight-forward death grunts like in Thorr's Hammer. She sounds positively possessed in this. Squealing, gurgling, retching, roaring and groaning, there's not a single moment when she doesn't sound magnificently terrifying.
While I can imagine people would find this album hard to swallow, it's definitely worth having. I'd listen to some samples first, though. It's too fast for doom, too death metal for avant-garde and too scary for normal folks. If this doesn't bother you, don't hesitate. While it's not the best thing Tim or James has done (Personally, I prefer Khanate), this is Runhild's crowning achievement, and probably the epitome of female fronted metal bands.

The LIOS DTS evaluation unit deploys the method of Optical Frequency Domain Reflection (OFDR). The OFDR system provides information on the local characteristic only when the backscatter signal detected during the entire measurement time is measured as a function of frequency in a complex fashion, and then subjected to Fourier transformation. The essential benefits of OFDR technology are the quasi continuous wave mode employed by the laser and the narrow-band detection of the optical back scatter signal, whereby a significantly higher signal to noise ratio is achieved than with conventional pulse technology (OTDR). This technical benefit allows the use of affordable semiconductor laser diodes and electronic assemblies for signal averaging. This is offset by the technically difficult measurement of the Raman scatter light and rather complex signal processing, due to the FFT calculation (FFT, Fast Fourier Trans-formation) with higher linearity requirements for the electronic components.
The optical frequency domain reflectometry has been developed as a high-resolution measurement process for the characterisation of optical wave guides with length dimensions of just a few millimetres. In contrast, its application for the Raman backscatter measurement was newly introduced by LIOS Technology.
The temperature measuring system consists of a controller (frequency generator, laser source, optical module, HF mixer, receiver and micro-processor unit) and a quartz glass fibre (fibre optic) as line-shaped temperature sensor.
The design is three-channel, since an additional reference channel is required besides the two measurement channels (Anti-Stokes and Stokes). Corresponding to the OFDR system, the power output of the laser runs through the sinus-shaped frequency starting from a starting frequency in the kilohertz range through the ending frequency in the high megahertz range within a measurement time interval with the help of the HF modulator. The resulting frequency shift is a direct measurement of the local resolution of the reflectometer. The frequency-modulated laser light is connected to the fibre optic-sensor via the optical module.
The continuously back-scattered Raman light is spectrally filtered in the optical module and converted into electrical signals by means of photo detectors. Then the measurement signals are amplified and mixed in the low-frequency spectral range (LF range). The Fourier transformation of the averaged LF signals results in the two Raman backscatter curves. The amplitudes of these backscatter curves are proportional to the intensity of the Raman scattering of the viewed location. The fibre temperature along the sensor cable results from the amplitude ratio of the two measurement channels.
High Reliability and Industrial Strength
The OFDR technology - with its approved optical components from the telecom industry - enables to provide sophisticated fibre optic temperature surveillance at commodity prices.
The applied light source is a modern and durable semiconductor laser diode, instead of a rather complex solid state laser which powers typically Raman OTDR systems.
The semiconductor laser diode has been critically type tested according the Telcordia GR-468 standard and is fulfilling telecom standards with a medium lifetime of > 25 years. Not only the laser diode has been tested, the entire system was comprehensively evaluated by various independent international bodies (e.g. the Germany VdS, the association of German asset insurers), which includes EMI tests as well as endurance tests at accelerated aging environments.
Invariant spatial resolution along the entire sensor length
The applied Optical Frequency Domain Reflectometry (OFDR) principle ensures a temperature survey even over long distances at an appealing spatial resolution of 1 m or even 25 cm.
The OFDR technology provides an almost invariant spatial resolution along the entire sensor length, which ensures to identify and clearly measure atypical hotspots at early stages, even at most remote distances.
This is in contrast to other measurement principles (e.g. laser pulse principle, OTDR), which are sensitive to dispersion effects and therefore affected by a broadened spatial resolution at longer measurement distances; in other words, the hot spot sensitivity of pulse type measurements degrade with a function of distance.

Auburn's coaches are getting the former Central High star from Phenix City ready to play if needed this year. With Zeke Pike kicked off the team earlier this summer, there are only three scholarship quarterbacks on the roster. One of those players, junior Clint Moseley, is working around a sore throwing arm, something that has bothered him going back to spring training.
"We ran a couple of plays today with us young guys," Wallace said in more than a small understatement.
"We really got a lot of time out there to just feel what it's going to be like," he added. "I believe, like I've said before, there's a lot of room for improvement and we're going to continue to work hard."
Wallace has received praise from his coaches and teammates throughout the preseason with how quickly he has picked up his assignments. He has also won praise for his work ethic.
The freshman said that when he goes out on the field he tries not to think too much and concentrate simply on executing his assignment for each play. "I just take my time, but of course don't take too much time, go out there and give great effort. That was the biggest thing and I believe I was able to do that."
Wallace also said he is enjoying the preseason. "I am having a lot of fun out there," he said of practice.
Jonathan Wallace
Offensive tackle Greg Robinson complimented Wallace after Saturday's practice, saying the quarterback is "a young leader" and "a really smart guy."
"The coaches acknowledged him for learning the plays so fast because he came in later in the summer," Robinson pointed out. "He really came a long way. He's really smart and knows what he's doing. He is a real talented guy."
Saying he and the other quarterbacks have been working hard to improve all summer, Wallace noted he believes the offense has improved in recent weeks at everything it is trying to do. That includes the offensive line, where there has been a lot of shuffling of players from position to position the past three weeks as the Tigers prepare to play Clemson.
"I really have a lot of faith in our line," Wallace said. "They're going to continue to grind. That's one thing that they've been doing since this summer is just grinding out, trying to get better."
The Tigers will not return to practice until Tuesday, but Wallace said it's only a break physically. Saying he can still improve mentally, the quarterback plans on studying the playbook to be ready to execute his assignments as the Tigers change their focus to putting in the game plan for the season opener.
The young quarterback makes it clear that he needs to improve in all areas. "I don't know everything yet," he said. "I'm a freshman."
Chizik said the coaching staff will also be studying, thoroughly evaluating what took place in practice this week at quarterback and at other positions. "We are definitely going to name a stater (at quarterback) before gameday," he said. "It is going to happen."
The coach noted that none of the quarterbacks have stepped forward and clearly won the No. 1 position. Asked if it was because the quarterbacks are all performing well or because they are performing not so well, the coach said, "I think it lies somewhere in the middle."

My LO (little one) sleeps at night in the same Pampers Baby Dry diaper between 11-12hrs. Lately we are having major leaks. by morning the diaper weighs a alot and his PJ's and sleep sack are wet.
For those of you that use cloth diapers do you believe they hold more urine for heavey wetters or are cloth diapers just about the same when it comes to long duartions such as night time wear?
If cloth is the winner.. what brand and what inserts do you use for nightime wear?

The hotel is well situated for exploring the Pyrenees area of Cirque de Gavarnie, Pont D'Espagne and Col du Midi. Not all rooms are as featured on the web site - our small double was very basic. An odd smell from the bathroom. The walls are tissue- paper thin.
The hotel itself was very attractive. Old fashioned but well restored. Good bathroom facilities. The breakfast ddid not have any savoury options and there were no tea/ coffee making facilities.
Nice little room, quality and vintage feel, confortable bed and so on.. town is well located to discover the region (Gavarnie, Pont d'Espagne) Quite isolated (little town).
the staff was very helpfull. the rooms were big and beautifully decorated
the beds and the lack of elevators
Lovely Terrace by the river for dinner/breakfast with stunning mountain views - clear simple menu well cooked and served - attentive helpful staff
Very Friendly Atmosphere
Location We could not believe how dirty the hotel was - in particular the public areas. The carpets were very badly stained and worn. There was a serious shortage of staff
nothing There was no elavator, the room was very old, neglected and uncomfortable !!!!
The nice location and terrace. Rooms were hugly, not really clean.Food was not what you can expect from French cuisine. Breakfast really very poor, just an croissant and a few slices of grilled ( roasted) baguette, marmelade, butter and coffee or tea ...the poorest breakfast we've ever experienced.
Restraunt very good. Parking good. Staff friendly Decor very dated felt needed good clean up. Breakfast poor. Not obvious to find took a while to find I would say it is just before Luz.
well renovated . I was pleasantly surprized by the interior of our hotelroom in comparison to the exterior.The manager( Pierre)was also very helpfull. no
friendly staff, nice spacious room, recently renovated
clean room decorated in good taste, beautiful position of hotel, wonderful village, good sound insulation, friendly and helpful staff, charming grounds food - too expensive, breakfast lacked variety
The room was clean and located near the center of the small town. Breakfast was over six euros for a coffee, juice, yogurt, and a croissant. I felt cheated. There is a store across the street and a bakery on the corner which are better alternatives.
Clean, tidy and excellent location. If only the room also had a bath!
Central position but Quiet.Restaurant Les Templiers near the fortified Church excellent,well worth a visit.
Thomas at the front desk was very outgoing nothing
The hotel was run by people who were committed to offering excellent food and service and doing the best for their guests. The rooms were well serviced and comfortable with plumbing that worked (something that we British cannot take for granted in our own country).
Fantastically nice and well-run family hotel. Good service (family), excellent atmosphere and super WiFi. Great experience. Drinks were offered, because they could not provide us a room with a bath. Nice gesture. None.
Very helpful and friendly manager
We wanted to be in the Pyrénées and this hotel was perfectly situated as a base for day hikes.
Wonderful welcoming staff, clean comfortable rooms, excellent fresh and home cooked meals, and perfect location for exploring the Pyrenees.
The hotel is extremely quaint with exquisite style and decor. It is situated in the centre of Cauterets and although it does not have its own car park, there are numerous public places nearby. A fantastic well run small hotel. Nothing.
Centrally located. Reception staff were particularly helpful. The overall room size was more than adequate. Breakfast good value for money. Bathroom was rather small
The people running the hotel were really friendly,welcoming and helpful. The accommodation was very comfortable and charming. The restaurant was good value and the quality of the food excellent.
The service from Christophe (front of house) and Alain (the chef) and their attention to detail, room was comfortable, food was excellent
The friendly staff, clean and tidy rooms, good food both the breakfasts and in the restaurant in the evening. Central location.
A good comfortable room supported by attentive staff The only weakness was that the bath did not have a shower screen and it was therefore difficult to keep all the shower water in the bath
Location, character & view
Friendly and helpful staff. Welcoming environment in general, despite not adhering to the arrival time. Nicely appointed room & great shower. Good price. Convenient (& attractive) location for exploring the area. Parking not ideal, but it was easy enough to find a space just up the road (and it was easy to stop outside and check-in/unload). Luz St Sauveur was about a 15 minute walk (past some vicious sounding dogs!) or a very short drive. View from rooms at the back of the hotel not up to much but view from those at the front must be spectacular.
Very clean and at least our room was recently renovated to modern standards. Was better than expected by photos. Incredible views to the mountains on the outer side of building. At 58 euros a night very good value. Restaurant was ok for dinner, breakfast was basic. Staff was friendly and helpful.
Close to Cirq the Gavarnie
good food in the restaurant even if decor looks a bit cheesy, great view out of front rooms, good location 10 minutes walk out of town so quiet rough sheets and one long pillow in the double bed, could be brought into 21st century, breakfast not worth it
Food was good & homely. The Hotel & accommodation was dated & shabby. Limited Street parking.
Almost nothing good... Except that it was relatively clean for this price range. (But the towels were dirty... Gross) - They wake you up every morn @ 10am by knocking on your door to clean the room. No, there is not a "do not disturb" sign anywhere. And They will not clean your room in the afternoon, so you have to vacate each morning for them to clean it - No free internet, as promised. They provide access to Orange Wifi, but to use it you have to pay Euro 4.50 per hour. When we asked them about it, they said that the wifi is free, but the internet access isn't free
Location is out of town on a hillside next to a raging river. Pleasant staff and very polite, if a little remote. Reception is deserted - all transactions take place in the bar/restaurant over the road. It is a quaint old place. The hotel is very dated, quite shabby in places - shower wasn't very nice, but bed was clean. The menu wasn't very inviting so we ate down the road at a similar hotel.
Fair choice of food in the restaurant at reasonable prices.Quiet The Hotel annexe we stayed in was a little shabby, but clean,and the staff made up for this shortcoming
Quiet - away from noisy part of town. Near to great modern spa - should be advertised as part of the attraction. Good location for walking. Good value including food. Friendly staff. No bar apparently available during day. No tea making in rooms. Fortunately weather was good as residents lounge very gloomy and basic.TV Should have some international channels (at least bbc world or other news). Menu in restaurant too limited but food good.
Lovely view across the valley. Quiet at night. Spacious and comfortable room. Easy access to private offroad parking.
Panoramic et des Bains is a quiet and clean hotel with a good location for travellers. The shower is very very small and unpleasant and the bathroom is so small that you can seat on the toilet and wash your face at the same time.

62-year-old, Australian-born, actor, writer, musician, performer, and family man: Rick Springfield is still making his mark in the music industry. Rick has had 17 Top 40 hits, played Dr. Noah Drake on General Hospital, and appeared in the TV pilot in 1978 of Battlestar Galactica.
Set to perform a concert at the Burbank Starlight Bowl, Rick intends to introduce new songs from his forthcoming CD (presently untitled) which will be released Oct. 6 — his 18th!
Performing fromCanadatoLas Vegas, Rick will be heading toCancunfor a unique concert/party experience in November. "We've been doing this for the last four years,"Springfieldsays. "A big land event inCancunwhere we do all kinds of different sets of music, a beach concert … we have such a great time with celebrities and fans. "
Rick was also the subject of a documentary called An Affair of the Heart, which was produced to give insights onSpringfield's actual fan following. "I thought it was going to be a straight documentary, but they went a completely different direction with it. They talked to fans, went into their homes, followed them around … fans that have been with me for over 30 years. The stories are deep — pretty emotional stuff."
New for Springfieldwas his guest appearance on the TV Land hit series Hot in Cleveland. "It was really, really great. Those ladies are consummate professionals – they're so good at what they do." About working on a sitcom Rick explains, "It was really new to me – I've never done a sitcom like this. I was so used to episodics and film that doing a show once – in front of a live audience — was scary, but a lot of fun!"
One of his more personal projects is a CD of lullabies for children called My Precious Little One. He says it was inspired more than 25 years ago when singing his own children to sleep. "I was helping my kids get to sleep and I ended up given copies to friends with kids … and I never meant to release it – it was just a personal thing. I got a lot of letters about how parents were putting their kids to sleep with it."
Still, Rick Springfield, always busy with his many projects, admits he is a family man/"homebody": "I have a studio in my home. When I go out for a couple days there's a lot of flying, but I come home and stay connected with my family. That's important to me."
Warm, friendly, and extremely down-to-earth, Rick Springfield is a person with a creative heart and soul that continues to share his talents worldwide. Follow him on his website www.RickSpringfield.com. Rick Springfield will perform at the Burbank Starlight Bowl on Saturday, Aug. 11.

Of being the first 16 seed to beat a 1 seed?

Of being the first 16 seed to beat a 1 seed?
I know that it is a one in a million shot, but if any team could do it this year, could it be?
It will never happen.
Oh, it'll happen someday.
If I was looking for a team to beat a 1 seed I'd look for a team with a lot of shooters. I'd also want a team that contests everything. A tight man-to-man defensive philosophy. Then it has to be a night when they're just blazing from 3 and the 1 seed isn't at their best.
You get a team full of shooters, even though they're outmatched physically and they'd have a puncher's chance.
I doubt if this is the year to bet on it - there are years where you have 2 1's and have to pick from 4 or 5 2's to get them - this year they had about 6 1's. But eventually parity will make it happen - or a team will be seeded 16 that gets an injured player back.
The poster formerly known as Rimfire
DK, the type of team you just described will never be a 16 seed. If they were that good they wouldn't be a 16 seed. 16 seeds are 16 seeds for a reason.
The top 3-pt shooting team in the country is New Mexico. They aren't in the tournament. The 2nd best is IUPUI. They aren't in the tournament. The 3rd is Cornell and they're a 15 seed. Even to win a wimpy conf teams have to play well. and sometimes that includes defense and shooting.

Well you basically just described every 6-9th seeded mid major in the country.
I agree with what DK is saying. Also, if the 4th #1 loses a key player early in the game it could swing the momentum. It would take the perfect mixture of events, but it will probably happen one day.
Cornell is a 14.
I just don't think you'll see a 16 seed that not only can shoot, but play that kind of pressure defense. Thats just my opinion of course.
Obviously they can't go toe-to-toe with a 1 seed - it has to be the perfect storm plus a year with a vulnerable number 1 seed - maybe a team that doesn't shoot FT's very well and doesn't have great guard play. One of these days it'll happen. This year it's more unlikely than usual because there aren't any real weak sisters and while Memphis doesn't shoot FT's well they play very uptempo - they make it a game of athletes which makes it next to impossible for a less talented team to win.
Though I bet the Penn/Princeton shoot lights-out and run a very slow offense style would have made them sweat.
The poster formerly known as Rimfire
We'll see. The only way it happens is if a one seed has two starters get hurt like the day before the game and even then it would be very, very close.
More than likely a one seed will now lose to a 16 seed in this tourney. Sorry folks.
The 16 seeds have been real competitive so far this tourney.
One day, Wisconsin will get a No. 1. And then we'll see.

Jerusalem (Mar. 10)
Another land clash between Jewish settlers and Arab Bedouins occurred to-day in the Valley of Jezreel, in the settlement of Kuskustabun, which belongs to the Jewish land purchasing organisation, the Meshek Land Company.
Twelve Arabs and three Jews were arrested, all of them being subsequently released on bail. Three Jews sustained injuries, one of them of a somewhat serious character.
There are only four Arab tenant families on the land, which was purchased by the Meshek Company in 1925. The other Arabs who were involved in the encounter are Bedouins and Felaheen from the vicinity, who were trespassing, never having worked on this land.
The Arabs had previously threatened that they would plough the land this morning. The District Administration in Haifa raised no objection to both Arabs and Jews ploughing the land. The Arabs accordingly appeared on land which had been previously ploughed by the Jews, and encountered there thirty Jewish ploughers with their teams, and the clash resulted. After the clash, Police Superintendent Harrington ordered both sides to stop work on the land.
There is a great deal of indignation among the Jewish settlers with the District officer, M## Lees, for advising the Arabs to plough the same land that the Jews had already ploughed.
Mr. Lees would appear to be the Area Officer in charge of the Arab villages during the 1929 outbreak, who in his evidence before the Shaw Enquiry Commission, gave the impression of being a pro-Arab. Mr. Lees' evidence, it was complained in Palestine at the time, tended to show that the Jews had provoked the Arabs. Sir Boyd Merriman, the Counsel for the Jewish Agency, challenged his credibility, pointing out that Mr. Lees had only recently come to Palestine from Zanzibar, that he was a great friend of the Arabs, and knew their language, and had no contact with or knowledge of the Jews.

WR Markeith Ambles - Ambles was one of the top recruits in the country coming out of high school and he signed with USC. He was a big part of the Matador offense this season and earned First Team All-WSFL honors for his efforts. He has offers from Illinois and Marshall and will visit the Herd in two weeks. He has some work to do in the classroom which has kept several schools from offering at this point. He will graduate in May with two to play two.
TE Emmanuel Bibbs - Bibbs committed to Iowa State back in June and remains committed to the Cyclones, but recently visited Oklahoma, so it remains to be seen where he will finally end up. In addition to his offers from those two schools, the talented tight end prospect also has offers from Arkansas, Memphis, San Diego State, Northern Iowa, Texas Tech and Western Michigan. Bibbs earned Second Team All-WSFL honors following the season.
LB Raahmil Brantley - Brantly can play any of the linebacker spots, but excelled outside for the Matadors. He will vsiit Florida A&M next week.
RB Lemont Buice - Talented tailback who can run inside very well. Buice will visit Florida A&M on December 15th.
TE Cameron Clear - Committed to Texas A&M. Has tripped to College Station (11/16) as well as Mississippi (10/13) and Oklahoma (11/23). He also had offers from Mississippi State and San Diego State. Clear is big and a great blocker and very athletic for his size.
DE Kevin Fortson - Fortson had a solid season in the defensive line rotation and has garnered an offer from Florida A&M and will join Brantly on December 15th in officially visiting the Rattlers.
DE Randy Gregory - Great looking prospect who can pressure the edge with his hand on the ground or a walk-up, pass-rushing linebacker spot, depending on the defensive scheme. Gregory committed to Purdue out of high school and planned to sign with the Boilermakers after he finished up his coursework at Arizona Western next month, however, his recruitment blew up and he has committed to Nebraska after visiting there in late October. In addition to those two offers, he also has full rides on the table from Arkansas, Illinois, Iowa, Iowa State, Kansas, Louisville, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, Oregon State, Utah and Washington as well.
LB D'Vante Henry - The long and lean prospect has offers from Oregon State, Texas A&M, Texas Tech, Utah and West Virginia. Henry has already visited Utah (11/16) and he will visit West Virginia this weekend and then Texas Tech on December 15th before making his decision.
OT Jaylen Hunter - Hunter has plenty of offers to choose from including Arkansas State, Florida Atlantic, Florida International, Hawaii, Louisiana, Marshall, Middle Tennessee, Nevada, New Mexico, San Diego State, South Florida, Syracuse, Troy, ULM, Utah State, Washington State and Western Kentucky. He plans to visit Marshall on December 8th and Syracuse on January 18th. He's also hoping to set up an official with South Florida as well.
LB Jeffrey Lark - Lark is still waiting on his first offer. He did visit Texas A&M in November and they could be an option down the line. Lark played inside for the Matadors this season, but he could play outside if necessary.
S Pat Martin - Martin is a good looking safety prospect that has offers from Arkansas State, Memphis, Nevada, New Mexico State, Oregon State and South Alabama. He visited OSU back in September and will take a trip to Arkansas State next week.
QB Tanner McEvoy - McEvoy's name is just starting to circulate with teams across the country. He can leave in December and will have three years to play three. He has had Oregon in to see him a couple of times since late November and Texas has also made inquiries. He doesn't have any offers yet, but expect them to come once coaching staffs start to find out about his availability.
TE Greg Reese - Arizona Western was loaded with talented tight ends and Reese also received offers from the likes of Utah, Indiana, Louisville and Memphis. He visited the Utes in early September and committed there a month later.
OG Dionte Savage - Savage has Syracuse looking at him and he will visit Upstate New York on January 18th to see what the Orangemen have to offer.
CB Cassius Sendish - Sendish had a solid season in the secondary and has full rides from the likes of Hawaii, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa State, Kansas, Kansas State, South Alabama and Toledo. He's already visited Kansas (9/8), Indiana (8/25) and Toledo (11/24) and will take a trip to Kansas State next week (12/15).
CB Nate Willis - One of the top JUCO cover-corners in the country this season, Willis has offers from Baylor, Mississippi, Mississippi State, South Florida, West Virginia, Arizona State, Indiana, Iowa State, Kansas, Kansas State, Memphis, Nevada, New Mexico and South Alabama. He has already visited Mississippi State (11/16) and will visit West Virginia this weekend. He's also working on setting up visits with Ohio State and Baylor in January.
DE Sam Wren - Wren led the Matadors in sacks this season with 14 and has full rides from Oklahoma State, Washington State, Arkansas, Arkansas State, Houston, Louisiana, Memphis, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico State, Oregon State, Texas State, Utah State and Western Kentucky. Wren is scheduled to visit Washington State this weekend and Oklahoma State on December 15th and will make his decision shortly after that.
Other players to keep an eye on: DT Chris Cormier, OL Brent Walker, LB Timothy Patterson, WR Andre O'Neill, WR Ted Meline, RB DeSean Martin, K Tilghman Harvey, WR Qudral Forte, LB Michael Carlisle, OL Nathan Bartley and RB J.C. Baker

2008 Oak Ridge valedictorian Feross Aboukhadijeh started a technology company called PeerCDN in March 2013, which was just acquired by the Internet giant Yahoo.
Aboukhadijeh was a member of Oak Ridge's cross-country, track and basketball teams, and he represented Oak Ridge twice at the California Cross Country State Championships. He attended Stanford University where he studied computer science and graduated in 2012.
PeerCDN, short for "peer-to-peer content delivery network," helps to cheaply and quickly deliver streaming web videos, like those on Netflix and YouTube. The technology helps websites reduce costs and improve performance. PeerCDN serves a site's videos over a peer-to-peer network made up of the visitors currently on the site, reducing the strain on web servers and saving companies a lot of money.
The company was bought by Yahoo for an undisclosed amount. Aboukhadijeh and his two co-founders have joined Yahoo's video team. The acquisition was announced via a blog post on the company's website, and later confirmed by Yahoo.
"As a kid, Feross used to say, 'I want to create something that is the next Google, something so awesome that everyone is going to use it,'" said his father Hassan Aboukhadijeh, an electrical engineer. "And, it looks like his dream has come true."
In 2010, Feross achieved international notoriety for building a website called YouTube Instant that helped people search YouTube quickly. Feross built the site in just three hours on a bet with a friend. It immediately went viral and the site, as well as Feross, was featured in The New York Times, The Washington Post, The San Francisco Chronicle, The Sydney Herald of Australia, CNN, The Wall Street Journal, New York Magazine, hundreds of tech news websites and even Village Life. Feross has also been interviewed by multiple TV and radio media, including NBC. YouTube Instant received one million visitors in the first 10 days.

The 10 Most Influential & Successful Female Entrepreneurs Of Our Time
It's a man's world' so they say, but throughout history and in modern times, women too have played an important part in society. In fact, some of these highly influential women entrepreneurs have surpassed their male equivalents. From powerful leaders to media moguls, women often have had to battle against far tougher offs than their male counterparts to get their respective positions of influence.
This article identifies 10 Of The Most Influential Women Of Our Time.
The Top 10 Most Influential & Successful Female Entrepreneurs
#10 – Sheryl Sandberg
Whilst Facebook was certainly very popular before she came on board in 2008, it was difficult to see how the site would make an income worthy of its valuation. Not only did she help meet those expectations that came with such a high valuation of a site yet to make a real income, she helped massively exceed them.
Since she came on board as Facebook's number two, it's user base increased more than 10 times to roughly 11% of the world's population, and the business is on course to post massive profits that are rumoured to cause the company to be valued near the $100 billion mark, which is almost as much as half the GDP of Ireland. It was her task to monetize Facebook, and she did this very successfully.
She would have been much higher in the top ten if it wasn't for the fact that Facebook was destined to conquer the world on account of it being a very good idea, but everything she was tasked to do, she did very well and deserve her place amongst the top ten women entrepreneurs.
#9 – JK Rowling
This single and struggling mother wrote a book that bought a generation of video gamers and tv addicts back to reading books to excercise their imaginations once again. Another rags to riches story, JK Rowling's Harry Potter books have become one of the best-selling books of all time, she managed to spawn a major feature film series and a franchise that also incorporates a fully functioning theme park in direct competition with Disney. Her influence not only affects millions of children around the world, but has also drawn many adults into her world.
#8 – Sara Blakely
From a woman who went door-to-door selling fax machines for 7 years, to failing her life long dream of becoming a lawyer then creating "Spanx", a multi-million dollar undergarment company, you'd say that Sara Blakely is a modern day "Wonder Woman".
Sara Blakely has secured her spot as the world's youngest self-made female billionaire with a current net worth of $1 Billion.
#7 – Lady Gaga
Whatever you think of her music and fashion tastes, theres no denying that she has become an extraordinary success within a very short space of time and one of the most successful women in music today. Earning Lady Gaga her spot as number 8 in the list of top female entrepreneurs.
Born Stefanie Germanotta, Lady Gaga is estimated to be worth nearly $100 million at the tender age of 25-years-old. The reason for her fortune is that unlike many of her peers, she actually writes her own music, netting her a huge income in royalties.
#6 – Susan Wojcicki
Susan Wojcicki can certainly claim to be one of the most influential women in business owing to her being Senior Vice President at search engine giant Google, Susan has been responsible for helping to turn a great idea into a very profitable idea.
Susan is mostly in charge of the advertising revenue side of Google.
#5 – Melinda Gates
Although her husband Bill Gates is mostly responsible for their wealth, she has been responsible for talking him into co-founding a charitable organisation with the money made from Bill's empire. Bill Gates has stated that when he dies, all of his $40 billion fortune will have been spent on good causes.
Melinda & Bill Gates have already donated $27 billion to charitable causes.
#4 – Indra Nooyi
Born in Calcutta, India, Indra Nooyi is one of the most powerful women in business having held executive positions in many of the world's top companies.
She is currently Chairwoman and CEO of Pepsico which is the second largest food and drink company on the planet. She has not only excelled in business but also in academia, earning degrees in Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics as well as an MBA in management in her native India, she then went on to earn a Master's degree in Public and Private Management at Yale.
#3 – Angela Merkel
Great responsibility rests on this ladies shoulders as leader of Europe's most powerful and richest economy, Germany. Her influence and persuasion skills are likely to affect millions of Europeans and billions of others around the world. The global economy effectively is in her hands.
Agela Merkel is Germany's first female leader and her decisions are highly likely to impact the history of Germany.
#2 – Oprah Winfrey
No list of the top women entrepreneurs would be complete without Oprah.
Worth an estimated $2.7 billion, it's no wonder she can afford to hand out free cars to her audience members, her fortune has been largely down to creating television that women love to watch. And not just being content with appearing on the TV, she has gone on to excel in many other forms of media. As for being influential, she has had president Obama on her show twice, amongst many other world-famous people and has donated 100s of millions to make this world a better place.
#1 – Cher Wang
Cher ranks so highly on this list as she is perhaps arguably the most successful female entrepreneur in the world. Her wealth is primarily of her own making rather than being down to working for a large firm or being born wealthy.
She spent many years manufacturing cell phones for other people which earned her a tidy fortune, it wasn't until she set-up her own company HTC, that her wealth really took off. She has an estimated worth of $6.8 billion, her HTC smartphones have quickly gain notoriety and in 2010, accounted for 20% of the smartphone market.
You may not have heard of her, but she's undoubtedly influential and her income is entirely down to her own wits rather than any other factor, that's why Cher Wang deserves the number one spot on this list of the top ten most influential women entrepreneurs.
All of these women are successful entrepreneurs in their own right. All have had to overcome high odds of failure to reach their ultimate destination, and all have greatly influenced millions of people around the world. These successful female entrepreneurs have added so much to our lives and serve as great inspiration for other women wishing to emulate their successes.
It's truly a great and useful piece of info.
I'm happy that you just shared this helpful info with us.
Please stay us informed like this. Thanks for sharing.
So inspiring ..
Half the women on this list aren't entrepreneurs they are EMPLOYEES.
Actually Indra Nooyi was born in Chennai not in Calcutta
It is a breath of fresh air to read and share this article about top successful and influential world women leaders! It takes civilized cultures to help motivate, guide, and encourage women achievers. As a proud American business woman, I am very grateful and lucky to live in a country where opportunities are equally available to all, men and women, who are willing to go the extra mile and make a difference. Such a civilized culture should be an example to some other societies around the world! They should embrace the idea that women are very important and productive members who should have entitled human rights. May be then, most women will have the chance not only to live in dignity, but also to succeed and continue to help build families, communities, and societies.

No. 1 UConn routs No. 4 Louisville 81-64
Storrs - Louisville, facing UConn for the first time since last season's national championship game in New Orleans, pared the lead to five points with the first half winding down Sunday afternoon at Gampel Pavilion.
Then the ball wound up in the hands of UConn's Breanna Stewart. Twice.
Stewart, who was Most Outstanding Player at the Final Four as the Huskies earned their eighth national title, picked up where she left off against the Cardinals.
She hit two straight 3-pointers to push UConn's lead back to nine with 4 minutes, 28 seconds to go in the half, one of them spinning toward the basket and off-balance, and finished with 24 points, 10 rebounds, six assists and two blocked shots to lift the top-ranked Huskies past No. 4 Louisville 81-64 before a sellout crowd of 10,167.
"She's a special player," Louisville coach Jeff Walz said. "There's no question she's the best player in the country, in my opinion. We had back-to-back situations where we allow her to pull up (behind) the free throw line and shoot it. She hits back-to-back 3s."
"(In the second half), she had the ball right in front of me one time," UConn coach Geno Auriemma said of Stewart, a 6-foot-4 sophomore forward. "I wanted us to use some clock. She jumped up and hit a 3."
Moriah Jefferson finished with a career-high 18 points and five assists for the Huskies (25-0, 12-0 American Athletic Conference), while Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis had 13 points and Stefanie Dolson and Bria Hartley 12 each.
Mosqueda-Lewis hit the floor hard after having a shot blocked with 18.7 seconds left in the first half and went straight to the training room. She returned to the game briefly in the second half, attempting and missing just one shot before returning to the bench. Auriemma said the injury didn't appear to be as severe as the one to Mosqueda-Lewis' right elbow earlier in the year which caused her to miss eight games, but said the more recent injury would be evaluated.
Louisville, led by 18 points and eight rebounds from Asia Taylor, is 23-2, 11-1 in the AAC, coming into the game against UConn with 16 straight victories, the longest winning streak in school history.
UConn topped Louisville in last year's national title game 93-60, getting 23 points and nine rebounds from Stewart.
Auriemma said Stewart is "not even the same person that was playing a year ago at this time," speaking of her ability to shake off a bad play and come back with a great one.
"She scores 'em and exactly when you need 'em," Auriemma said. "It's like a guy who hits two home runs in the eighth inning when you're up 12-3. She hits three-run homers when we're down two. That's what makes her different."
Stewart is leading the team with an average of 19.8 points per game, adding 8.0 rebounds per game, second only to Dolson, the Huskies' All-America center.
Because of her height, Stewart is also a tough matchup for teams inside, following a 3-pointer in the second half against Louisville with a lob from Jefferson over the defense that resulted in a layup. Once again, a Stewart scoring spree stretched the UConn lead from seven to 52-40 with 14:37 remaining.
"You can tell when a team is trying to swing the momentum their way," Stewart said, told that Auriemma labeled her as clutch. "I think you do take a lot of pride in that. As a basketball player, any player would want the ball in their hands in a big moment. … At that point, I wanted the ball."
Asked about the off-balance 3, a play which started with her back to the basket, Stewart said: "I was faking the handoff. She wasn't up on me on the handoff, so I knew that when I turned around I would have room."
The Huskies limited Louisville leading scorer Shoni Schimmel (17.9 points per game prior to Sunday) to nine points. The Cardinals were also playing without starting guard Bria Smith (9.4 ppg) for the seccond straight game due to a knee injury.
UConn plays at South Florida next Sunday. The Huskies meet Louisville again in the final game of the regular season March 3 in Louisville.

Jennie Garth has been out and about in recent days, making headlines for her slimmer shape -- the Daily Mail called it the result of her "heartbreak diet" and Us Weekly described her as "shockingly slimmer" -- for a new Old Navy ad starring her Beverly Hills, 90210 castmates Luke Perry and Jason Priestly, and because she's getting back in the dating game.
Here she is at an event in New York on Wednesday for Crest & Oral-B. She has partnered with them for a back-to-school campaign.
The star opened up to Fox & Friends Tuesday about her split from actor Peter Facinelli in March after 11 years of marriage.
"I always said I would rather lick a dirty floor than go back to dating," Garth, 40, explained. "[Dating] is very new for me. I have training wheels on right now, because I was married [for so long]. That's my whole adult life, basically. I think I'm actually going back into adult adolescence. I'm having a moment."

What type of drinker are you?
Many people with alcohol problems cannot tell when their drinking is out of control. An important first step is to be aware of how much you are drinking and how your alcohol use may be harming your life and those around you.
One drink is defined as a 12-ounce can or bottle of beer, a 5-ounce glass of wine, a wine cooler, or 1 cocktail or shot of hard liquor. Think about:
- How often you have any alcoholic drinks at all
- How many drinks you have when you do drink
- How any drinking you are doing is affecting your life or the people around you
Responsible Drinking
Here are some ways to drink responsibly, as long as you do NOT have a drinking problem.
Healthy men up to age 65 should limit themselves to:
- No more than 4 drinks in 1 day
- No more than 14 drinks in a week
Healthy women up to age 65 should limit themselves to:
- No more than 3 drink in 1 day
- No more than 7 drinks in a week
Healthy women of all ages and healthy men over age 65 should limit themselves to:
- No more than 3 drinks in 1 day
- No more than 7 drinks in a week
You can use the AUDIT-C questionnaire to help you decide if your drinking is risky.
Risky (At Risk) Drinking
People with risky drinking patterns are drinking more than is considered medically safe. People who are risky drinkers have a higher risk of going on to abuse alcohol and become dependent on alcohol.
Some habits of risky drinkers are drinking:
- Many times per month, or even per week
- 3 to 4 drinks, or more, on a typical day
- 5 or more drinks on one occasion monthly, or even weekly
Your health care provider will advise you to cut down or even quit, and can help you begin to do this.

Alcohol abuseis a type of drinking that may affect how your life is going. If youhave any of these problems, you may be abusing alcohol.
- You did not do what you were expected to do (at home, work, or school) as a result of drinking.
- Your drinking caused you or someone else to be injured, or could have caused injury.
- You have had run-ins with the law.
- You have had trouble or conflict with your family, friends, or coworkers.
You may also have early signs of alcohol dependence.
Alcohol Dependence
Some signs of alcohol dependence are that you:
- Need to drink more to get the same effect from alcohol
- Have not been able to cut down or stop
- Have symptoms of withdrawal when you try to quit or cut down. Some of these are tremors, sweating, nausea, or insomnia.
- Have not been able to stop drinking once you have started
- Continue to drink, even though alcohol is causing emotional or physical problems, or problems with your family, friends, or job
- Spend a lot of time drinking, thinking about drinking, or recovering from drinking
- Spend less time on other activities that used to be important or that you enjoyed
When to Call the Doctor
If you or others are concerned about your drinking,make an appointment with your health care provider to talk about your drinking. Your health care provider can help guide you to the best treatment.

3 ways to play with magnetic dolls
Clothes pegs can be used for all sorts of imaginative things! An early childhood expert shares 3 great ways to play with this clever clothes peg activity created by Emma Rowe from Frog Goose and Bear.
These gorgeous peg dolls, created by blogger Emma Rowe from Frog Goose and Bear, are so easy for kids to whip up – great to pop on the fridge or for imaginative play using a cookie tray!

3 ways to play with magnetic dolls
Early childhood expert and editor of Childhood 101.com, Christie Burnett, shares 3 great ways for kids to play with their cute magnetic peg dolls.
Suitable for ages 3-8 years.
Give them the first line of a story such as: "I was walking to the park one day when suddenly there was a loud noise …" It's up to them what happens next and to play out the story with the aid of their peg puppets. Who knows where their imagination and creativity will take them?
Put a new spin on an old favourite by getting the kids to look carefully at the peg puppet world and all that's on it and then cover the baking tray with a tea towel. Whip one thing away while their eyes are covered and then ask them to try to remember what's missing. This is great for practising their power of observation and to give their memory a workout.
Ask them to make peg puppets based on the most important people in their lives. You might think this will mean they just make family members but you could be surprised at who they include. Teachers, neighbours or even the local lolly shop owner might make the cut! They can create peg puppet pets too for a play world inhabited by those they love most.
Learning benefits of this activity
Christie says:
"This is a great creative activity for 3-8 year-olds, encouraging children to think creatively and problem-solve as they face construction challenges. Creating different characters such as pirates, superheroes, animals, mermaids or fairies is a fabulous way to engage a child and encourage longer periods of focused play, developing concentration and independence.
This game encourages imaginative storytelling which helps kids develop oral communication skills. Children often play out what they have seen, heard and learnt in real life, reinforcing knowledge of the social world they inhabit and the roles of different members of their community."
Do your kids love to play make-believe with toys and finger puppets?

Tasting Notes - For many the perfect age for a great Tawny Port. The vibrant purple colour of a great young Port has softened to a delicate green-gold after 20 long years in seasoned oak casks under the watchful eye of the master blender and the Dow's head lodge man. On the palate, Dow's Twenty Years Old Tawny is perfectly balanced, with notes of dried nuts and spice. One of the greatest wines a Port blender can make.

text: By way of retired blogger Brent Evans, we learned that Google Fiber customers have started receiving next generation hardware. An updated Fiber Jack now receives power-over-Ethernet from a new Network+ Box … that combines both broadband router and DVR storage into a single enclosure with this go around while expanding wireless capabilities to 802.11ac/n. Lastly, the updated TV Box (shown above) is smaller, squarer, and now entirely silent. Beyond feeding "cable" to the television, each dual band unit also acts as a WiFi extender. We're hopeful that Google will ultimately enable more than 4 per home at some point, given the wireless enhancements and as Brent says this is a common complaint. Also, based on a prior FCC pop, we're still awaiting a refreshed Bluetooth LE remote. Lastly, on the content front, Google picked up HBO GO and Showtime Anytime within the last few weeks. Score!

Chevrolet says its new Camaro ZL1 is now officially a member in the "11-second" club -- at least when it comes to drag racing the quarter mile.
Though we've always been impressed with members of the "Mile High Club," Chevrolet says its membership based on its engineering prowess is remarkable nonetheless. The team ran a stock Camaro ZL1 with an automatic transmission over the quarter mile in 11.93 seconds, hitting 116 miles per hour. A Camaro ZL1 with stick shift ran the same distance in 11.96-seconds.
GM says not only could the ZL1 ace the quarter mile, but it could rocket from zero to 60 mph in 4 seconds. And it can do so with street-legal components.
"The ZL1 is great at everything and we're very proud of that," said Tony Roma, Camaro ZL1 program engineering manager. "You can take it to the drag strip and run 11-second quarter-miles all day long. You can also take it to a road course, where it's balanced, handles well, and does exactly what you want."
The new ZL1 is a throwback to a special-order 1969 Camaro ZL1 that was renowned for its performance on the drag strip.

NASA's Jet Propulsion laboratory has posted its weekly Mars Curiosity video update, giving viewers highlights of what it did this week.
Like all good tourists visiting a new destination, the rover sent back stored audio messages (one from the head of NASA, the other a song by Will.i.am), drove around a bit and took some very impressive panoramic photos of the scenery.
I'm not sure if next week we'll get a report from the road - at least the rover doesn't have anyone in the back seat going "Are we there yet?"

This is for a few reasons:
- It frees up my time.
- It is important for kids to gain life skills.
- Being capable is great for kids self confidence.
Put simply, it is very much putting into practice the motto "Teach a man to fish". My role is not to do everything for the kids, but to teach them and support them so they can do it for themselves.
One of the most important ways I can do this is to lead by example. My kids are used to seeing to-do lists, diagrams, project plans, stuck up in my home office and on the fridge. They will see me refer to them and use them as a way to organise myself.
While kinder kids and lower primary school kids may not be able to put together their own project plan, they can understand and follow simple charts to help them get organised for school or morning activities.
Routine for the preschooler
For our last two children, in the week leading up to them first starting out at kinder, we would have a practice run of all the things they will need to do in the morning to get themselves organised:
- Eat breakfast
- Brush their teeth
- Get dressed
- Apply sunscreen
- Pack bag
- Tidy room
As they are undertaking each task, I photograph them. We then work together to put the photos into the right order. Having the preschooler involved throughout the process of creating the preschool morning routine, means he is so much more likely to stick it as he has fully bought into it.
We print out a copy and laminate it. Preschoolers adore pictures of themselves, so by having it laminated, it means they can handle it frequently, but it stays in great condition so it can be used for its intended purpose. You can pick up laminators for a great price at the moment at Officeworks.
The preschool morning routine chart then becomes my key tool for helping the preschooler organise himself in the mornings. If he is wandering around still in his pyjamas, I will simply point to the chart and ask him where he is up to and what is he doing next. While I could just simply tell him to go and get dressed, the technique of using the chart always gets a better response as I am actually not telling him what to do!
You can download a basic free template for the preschooler routine here.
Schedule for the school kids
Once the kids reach school age, getting themselves organised for school becomes a little more complex. They need to know what day to take their show and share item and their library book, they need to know what day to wear their sports uniform and what day they have commitments after school.
As I worked with the preschooler, I work with the school kids to teach them how to make their own school week schedule. As our kids have been doing this since they started school, by the time they get to middle primary, they simply use the table I have created and add to it themselves – I am not involved at all.
For the early readers, I use a combination of simple words and pictures until they are familiar with all the words.
Once we have the schedule printed, laminated and up the notice area, I need to then make sure that I refrain from questioning them in the morning as they are getting ready:
- Have you got your reader?
- Do you have your diary?
- Do you have your hat?
The questioning or reminding, severely undermines having kids being responsible for their own organisation. If you are worried about them constantly forgetting everything for school, meet with their teacher and let them know what you are doing. Most teachers want kids to be independent and self organised and will support your efforts.
It is important for kids to feel the consequences for being disorganised. If they forget their school hat, then they can't play in the sun. If they don't bring their library bag, then they cannot borrow a new book.
These experiences will help them to get better at organising themselves at home in the morning.
You can download a basic free template for a schedule for school kids here.
A place for everything
While I am yet to achieve a 100% success rate for kids putting things in the right place every time, the fact I have a designated place for their school items to go, does mean it happens much more frequently. Making a home for frequently used school items also means they are misplaced much less and supports the children organising themselves. We have:
- A shoe rack at the door to place their school shoes as they take them off.
- A hook for each child to place their school bags on in the laundry.
- A place on the kitchen bench where they put their lunch boxes and school notices after school.
- Hooks in their bedroom for their library bags.
Getting kids to be organised is like any other developmental activity for kids. It takes time and they need to be taught, by role modelling the desired behaviour and by setting up the home environment so it is conducive for success.

OutdoorJobs Become Dangerous In High Heat
When its nearly hot enough to cook and egg on the sidewalk, outdoor jobs aren't just uncomfortable - they can be dangerous. Workers who do physical labor in high hear are at risk of developing heat-related illnesses.
Oregon OSHA, a division of the Department of Consumer and Business Services, encourages employers and workers to understand common signs of heat exhaustion. A person overcome with heat exhaustion will still sweat but may experience extreme fatigue, nausea, lightheadedness, or a headache. The person could have clammy and moist skin, a pale complexion, and a normal or only slightly elevated body temperature. If heat exhaustion is not treated promptly, the illness could progress to heat stroke, and possibly even death.
"Workers in Oregon aren't acclimated to working in this type of heat," said Penny Wolf-McCormick, health enforcement manager for Oregon OSHA. "It's important to drink water, seek shade during the day, and recognize the signs of trouble."
From 2008 through 2012, 35 people received benefits through Oregon's workers' compensation system for heat-related illnesses. In at least two of the cases, truck drivers without air conditioning suffered from heat exhaustion.
To help those suffering from heat exhaustion:
* Move them to a cool, shaded area. Do not leave them alone.
* Loosen and remove heavy clothing.
* Provide cool water to drink (a small cup every 15 minutes) if they are not feeling sick to their stomach.
* Try to cool them by fanning them. Cool the skin with a spray mist of cold water or a wet cloth.
* If they do not feel better in a few minutes, call 911 for emergency help.
Certain medications, wearing personal protective equipment while on the job, and a past case of heat stress create a higher risk for heat illness.
Heat stroke is a different condition than heat exhaustion. There are several reactions that occur in the human body with heat stroke: hot, red skin (looks like a sunburn); mood changes; irritability and confusion; and collapsing (person will not respond to verbal commands). Call for emergency help immediately if you think the person is suffering from heat stroke. If not treated quickly, the condition can result in death.
Here are some tips for preventing a heat-related illness:
* Perform the heaviest, most labor-intensive work during the coolest part of the day.
* Use the buddy system (work in pairs) to monitor the heat.
* Drink plenty of cool water (one small cup every 15 to 20 minutes).
* Wear light, loose-fitting, breathable clothing (such as cotton).
* Take frequent short breaks in cool, shaded areas - allow your body to cool down.
* Avoid eating large meals before working in hot environments.
* Avoid caffeine and alcoholic beverages (these make the body lose water and increase the risk of heat illnesses).
Employers can calculate the heat index for their worksite with the federal OSHA heat stress app for mobile phones. The tool is available at

Paula Abdul has reportedly told a friend that she is threatened with the addition of Kara DioGuardi as an 'American Idol' fourth judge.
This week's addition of Kara DioGuardi in the judging panel of talent TV show "American Idol" have left some speculations, one of which says that the show will change their judge line-up. A source even claims that the show's producer is hiring a new younger female judge to ditch Paula Abdul.
Paula has recently showed her concern over the new judge and says that she is worried about the audience's acceptance. According to Us Magazine, Abdul has told Phoenix's KISS-FM, "I am concerned about the audience and acceptance. Time will tell. We'll see."
Speaking of Kara, Paula continues saying that they are old friends who used to work together and after a long time separation, Paula welcomes her and considers it as a reunion. "[Kara] was my roommate! And I took her all around the world with me and introduced her to wonderful people...She stayed in Sweden and wrote with these people and got started living her dream," Paula explains in the interview.
However, Paula's statement has apparently failed to wash away the cornering gossip. An insider from the Idol show states in this week's edition of the National Enquirer that Paula is actually feeling a bit threatened by Kara. "Paula is trying to put a happy face on this situation, but she feels very threatened that a younger, internationally successful female is joining the cast of judges," the insider says.
Furthermore, Paula has reportedly told a friend that she is going to be booted off the show. "Paula sees Kara's introduction onto the show as the beginning of the end of her 'Idol' career," the insider states. Unfortunately, Paula as well as the Idol's producer and representative haven't given any confirmation yet.
