EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. For a few seconds last Sunday, the Minnesota Vikings looked like they might be close to suffering a similar fate as last year when they went 3-13 and late, blown leads were common occurences.The Jacksonville Jaguars had just taken a 23-20 lead with a 39-yard touchdown pass with 20 seconds left. But Minnesota proved this truly is a new season, coming back in the final seconds to tie the game and win in overtime. Now, after losing the first four games last season, Minnesota is in position to open a season with two straight wins when it goes on the road for the Indianapolis Colts' home opener on Sunday.Indianapolis is another young team, in a similar position as the Vikings were last year -- a first year coach, new coordinators and a rookie quarterback.Here are five things to watch as the Vikings go on the road to face the Colts. 1. Can Minnesota rattle Andrew Luck into more rookie mistakes?The Vikings defense faces another young quarterback in Indianapolis rookie starter Andrew Luck a week after facing Jacksonville's second-year signal caller Blaine Gabbert. Gabbert wasn't rattled much, but Luck is coming off a rough first regular-season game when he had four turnovers against the Chicago Bears. Minnesota has talked about trying to pressure Luck into more of those types of mistakes.The Vikings' defensive line went without a sack last week, but did put pressure on Gabbert and disrupted his rhythm in the second half. Defensive ends Jared Allen and Brian Robison, going against a Colts' offensive line that is in some transition with injuries and new starters, could struggle against the strength on Minnesota's defense. Luck ended up throwing 45 times against Chicago and the Vikings would like to force a similar unbalance for Indianapolis on Sunday, expecting the rookie to make a few mistakes. Luck entered the league as polished as any rookie quarterback in years, but he showed he still has a few things to learn in the NFL. 2. How will the offensive line handle a Freeney-less 3-4 defense?The Vikings reworked their offensive line this offseason, adding Matt Kalil and Brandon Fusco as starters and moving Charlie Johnson to left guard. The new-look line fared well against the Jaguars, who were a top-10 defense last season, but were among the bottom teams in total sacks. The Colts were tied for the third-fewest sacks last season and have made the move to a 3-4 defense with new coach Chuck Pagano coming from Baltimore and defensive coordinator Greg Manusky transitioning from San Diego.Minnesota's line struggled during the preseason with the Chargers' 3-4 defense and communication will be important against the different look and on the road in a domed stadium. Indianapolis is also missing its top pass rusher in Dwight Freeney, who's been listed as out with a high ankle sprain. Without Freeney's pressure and with the Vikings' line continuing to improve, Ponder could have the time to find mismatches with the Colts' suspect secondary. 3. Can Minnesota's passing game get going earlier?The Vikings slow start offensively last week was partially attributed to not getting anything started through the air. Quarterback Christian Ponder said that changed after the first few series when he told himself he needed to play with more of a sense of urgency. The result, Ponder completed 17 of his final 20 passes. He finished 20 of 27 for 270 yards and had three pass plays of 20 yards or longer in the second half. Much of that could be attributed to getting the ball in the hands of playmaking receiver Percy Harvin with short, quick passes that he took for longer gains.The key for Ponder and the offense is starting with that same urgency. Ponder said it's up to him to come out firing and play almost mad. He said he wants to play with a relentlessness that will allow him to be aggressive early and get his receivers involved. Teams will always load up to stop the running game with Adrian Peterson first, but if Ponder can prove he's evolved as a passer and loosen the defense the Vikings will have their desired balance. The Colts struggled to slow Chicago and quarterback Jay Cutler in the season's first week after Cutler, too, got off to a slow start. 4. How does Adrian Peterson look in his second game back from injury?Peterson amazed most observers last week by not only playing his first game since Dec. 30 knee surgery, but taking 17 carries for 84 yards and two touchdowns. Peterson started and played 54 percent of the offensive snaps compared to 34 percent for backup Toby Gerhart. Peterson said he felt good after the game, but did experience some tightness in the knee during the week.Minnesota will stay cautious with its franchise back and a split of carries between Peterson and Gerhart is still expected. But after last week's strong performance and improving health-wise during the week with treatment, how much can the coaches hold back Peterson. Gerhart has proven to be a steady backup and Peterson won't carry the full load. But will the Vikings get back to the old standard of Peterson being the workhorse back with Gerhart getting sparse carries, or will they, as the coaches have talked about, continue to sprinkle in Gerhart. Much of the split Sunday will likely come down to how Peterson's knee responds in-game. Peterson could garner more carries this week, but last week's 74 percent split of the carries between Peterson and Gerhart is still likely. Minnesota could end up with more offensive plays than the 59 it had last week, giving Peterson more of a chance to show how far he's come in his return. 5. Will the Vikings be leading the NFC North after two weeks?It's only two weeks, but Minnesota could actually be leading the division after last year's 3-13 slide depending on the result of Detroit's game at San Francisco. Taking advantage of what appeared to be an easier early-season schedule is important for the Vikings, who would be only one win shy of last year's entire total after just two weeks if they could beat Indianapolis Sunday.The Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears are tied at 1-1 after Green Bay's win on Thursday night. The Lions narrowly escaped a with a Week 1 win against the St. Louis Rams and now have to travel to face the 49ers, who beat the Packers in Week 1. Minnesota's slate might have been favorably opening with Jacksonville and Indianapolis, two teams that won a total of seven games last year. But in trying to prove they've moved on from last season and show they have improved being 2-0 would be big for the Vikings in the standings, and mentally. Follow Brian Hall on Twitter.

I've sometimes characterized much of the "Teavangelical" right-wing of America as people caught up in a delusional fantasy — and elaborate make-believe role-playing game in which they pretend to be heroic champions battling against Satanic baby-killers, Satanazis, and other imaginary monsters.
They speak and behave, I've argued, as though they prefer the world to be much, much worse than it is. They are privileged, but they enjoy pretending they are persecuted. Their neighbors may be very nice people, but they prefer pretending that those people are subhuman monsters out to destroy their freedom, their faith, and their country — bloodthirsty traitors to all that is good or sacred.
Some have suggested I'm exaggerating, and that they don't really view themselves or the world in this way.
But I'm not the one who made this video.
This was made by and for the conservative folks attending CPAC. It is their own portrayal of themselves and of the world around them. This isn't me describing them in such ridiculous terms. This is them describing themselves.

Alsop may be out East, but there is always Cabrillo
Published 4:00 am, Monday, July 18, 2005
Marin Alsop's expected appointment as music director of the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra as of 2007 shouldn't put a crimp in her activities as music director of the Cabrillo Festival of Contemporary Music in Santa Cruz, the conductor said in a phone interview Sunday.
"I love Cabrillo, and I intend to be there a long time," she said. "It's a different kind of environment, and one where I can experiment with different repertoire.
"And the time commitment is so small -- just three weeks a year -- that it doesn't impinge on other things."
The Baltimore appointment, expected to be ratified Tuesday by the orchestra's board, is a historic event, making Alsop, 48, the first woman to head a major U.S. orchestra.
In addition to her position with Cabrillo, which she has held since 1992, Alsop is currently music director of the Bournemouth Symphony in England, a post she will keep through 2008. Before becoming music director in Baltimore, she will spend the 2006-07 season as music director designate.
The issue of programming has been a contentious one in Baltimore, with outgoing music director Yuri Temirkanov coming in for criticism in some quarters for his lack of attention to contemporary and American repertoire -- especially by contrast with his predecessor, David Zinman, a known specialist in both areas. Alsop says she plans to chart a middle course.
"There's a happy medium for both the orchestra and the community, integrating new and exciting works with tradition repertoire in a way that can distinguish Baltimore from every other orchestra. I hope we can find a way to do that."
Alsop plans to keep using Cabrillo, whose 2005 season is scheduled for Aug. 1-14, as a testing ground for new work.
"Experimenting with repertoire at Cabrillo not only gives me an idea of what new pieces are out there but I can also gauge audience reactions. That helps me figure out how to program it and what standard repertoire it will go with.
"These are things that are impossible to tell just from looking at a score. You have to do a piece once or twice to figure out the ancillary matters."

ONE: Q – What's the difference between the Republican Party and a flat earth society? A – It's a trick question. There is no difference.
With a second Obama term looking more and more assured, Republicans across the nation are hurrying to make complete dicks of themselves about it, blathering shrilly about everything from the ascendancy of an Obama-nurtured caliphate, to fraudulent electronic birth and Selective Service records, to everybody's guns being confiscated, to conservatives being thrown into FEMA concentration camps, to Michelle Obama destroying America's youth with healthy food, to Stalinist death panels for granny, to [insert dimwitted, hysterical conspiracy theory here].
In other words, all the same stale crap we've been hearing for four years, just louder and more urgent than usual.
Take Alabama Republican Party chair Bill Armistead, for example. Armistead, eager to avoid talking about, you know, policy and stuff, put on his film critic hat for a gathering of the Eastern Shore Republican Women last week:
Armistead suggested that audience members see the movie

BARCELONA, March 11 (Reuters) - Hispania unveiled their 2011 Formula One car on Friday with just one full day of testing left before the Australian season-opener and some parts caught in customs.
Even as Indian Narain Karthikeyan and Italian Vitantonio Liuzzi pulled the wraps off the HRT F111, tired team principal Colin Kolles recognised that at least one driver might have to wait until Melbourne to drive it for the first time.
"We are trying to prepare it to run it," he told Reuters in the Circuit de Catalunya pitlane after mechanics had wheeled the Cosworth-powered car out of the garage into the Spanish sunshine.
"We will do systems checks, we will do the fire-up and then we will see," added Kolles, who said he had just two hours sleep before flying in from Stuttgart for the launch of the last of the 2011 cars.
"We still wait for some suspension parts for dampers which are in customs...we just have to get it out somehow and the plan is to run tomorrow."
Strugglers HRT were one of three new teams last season, all of whom failed to score a point, and did not test their 2010 car until first practice in Bahrain that year.
The Spanish-owned team has tested with their old car, giving Karthikeyan -- who last raced for Jordan in 2005 -- a chance to get at least some laps under his belt.
"Obviously we are going to get very limited time in the car," the Indian told Reuters. "We are under no illusion that Australia will definitely be tough...the reliability is going to be the biggest question mark for now."
The season starts in Melbourne on March 27.
Former Force India driver Liuzzi's signing was announced only on Wednesday but, with far more experience than Karthikeyan, is likely to be the one to test it first.
"Narain had a lot of running on the other car. Antonio had little running on the other car. I think that they should be fine," said Kolles.
A rule which excludes a driver from taking part in a race if his best lap in qualifying exceeds 107 percent of the fastest time in the session has been revived this season, but Kolles and Karthikeyan were confident the HRT would be quick enough.
"I think that this car is quicker than our old car and our old car was not above the 107 percent rule," said Kolles.
"The data we have is that the car is better than last year's...it's completely aerodynamically modified," he added. "The others have lost a little bit, we have gained a little bit so let's see where we are."
Karthikeyan agreed: "The numbers look good. Qualifying won't be the problem...I think when it all comes together we will surprise a lot of people.
"I'm reasonably confident, we have a good set of people...this year is going to be a completely different story."
Branding for Tata Group, owners of carmaker Jaguar and Karthikeyan's backers, was prominent on the car and Kolles said they were playing an important role as technical partners.
"Tata is providing us with the resources to improve the car," he said, adding that other sponsors were in the pipeline.
HRT were strapped for cash last year but Kolles said the way ahead was clear now: "We have a budget, the budget has been approved and we are working on this."

Behind the Headlines: Elbit Systems - 3084 views
To say we are in a market of historical dislocations is to state the obvious these days. Scandals, bailouts, failures and survivals top the headlines every day.
However, if you look past the headlines to uncover the many companies not making the front covers, you can find some intriguing valuations and interesting stories. Some stocks are overpriced with too-high expectations; others are written off as finished before their time.
Reading the daily headlines of the Israeli-Hamas conflict, you would likely never have considered a company called Elbit Systems (ESLT), an Israeli defense contractor that will likely benefit in the coming months and years as tensions in the region escalate. Based in Haifa, Israel, Elbit's lines of business include upgrading aircraft and helicopter systems and building and maintaining unmanned aircraft vehicles, as well as naval systems and general homeland security systems. Elbit just won a $100 million military communications contract for customers in Europe, South America and Asia to be delivered by the end of 2009, and it will likely win more contracts in the future.
Elbit trades with a forward P/E of 12.5, which is slightly above the industry average of 9.7, and with EV/EBITDA of 5.9, which is slightly elevated given the $400 million in debt Elbit currently has. Quarterly revenue growth year over year is 29.3%, which is double the industry average of 14.3% and four times higher than General Dynamics (GD) and Northrop Grumman (NOC). Gross margin firm wide is 28.5% vs. the industry average of 27.7%.
Iteris (ITI) is also a play here as the leading developer of traffic management technologies, particularly in video image processing. Iteris also provides outdoor machine vision systems and sensors in the U.S. and abroad. It makes vehicle detection systems for traffic and intersection control and data collection applications. With Iteris's technology, you can see exactly who is entering and leaving major cities and tourist sites. Iteris is a small-cap company, with great quarterly growth of 12.3% vs. competitor Quixote's (QUIX) 2.6% and the industry average of 11.5%.
Last week, Satyam Computer Services (SAY), one of the largest companies in India, claimed that it cooked the books by over $1 billion, which sent the broader India stock market down almost 7% as many dubbed this scandal "the Enron of India."
Wipro (WIT), one of Satyam's competitors, fell particularly hard on the Satyam news. But Wipro, the leading outsourcing services company in India, should benefit substantially from Satyam's demise. Ask yourself this question: If you are a large reputable company, who would you rather your business be associated with, Satyam, India's largest fraud, or Wipro?
Wipro trades with a forward P/E of 13.2 and EV/EBITDA of 12.3 and boasts quarterly earnings growth of 35.6%. Gross margins for Wipro are 29.7%, well below the industry average of 58.1%, but operating margins are 16.6% vs. the industry average of 1.4%.

Late-19th century Australia, and Cpt. Stanley (Winstone) has captured the younger two siblings of the notorious Burns brothers. With them in custody he offers middle brother Charlie (Pearce) a deal: head into the outback to kill older brother Arthur (Hust
What's that, Skippy? There's a turn-of-the-century outback town being terrorised by a vicious trio of bushrangers? They're rapin' and pillagin' and no-one seems able to stop them? Well, Skip, better round up the younger two brothers and offer the middle one a pact: slaughter your older bro, or we'll string up your younger one. Skip? Where are you going, Skip…?
Well, maybe that episode of Skippy never made it to air, but then, you should dump any other cutesy clichés about the Antipodes you might have in mind. Director John Hillcoat and screenwriter Nick Cave's film reveals an you've never seen before: it's as tough and bloody a movie as you're likely to catch this year. It's also one of the best.
It's a Western in spirit, certainly, but don't expect the convenient moral certainties of the Hollywood classics. As drunken, dissolute bounty hunter Jellon Lamb (John Hurt, in a typically incendiary performance) declares, "I came to this beleaguered land, and the God in me evaporated." This is more Peckinpah than Hawkes, but it's Peckinpah stripped even of his characters' slimly comforting faith in loyalty and honour. These characters, the witnesses to the final shudder of 's bloody birthing pains, are scratching a living in unimaginable conditions — a kind of hard-bitten nihilism pervades the place.
At the film's centre are two men, each struggling to keep or regain their moral bearings among the bloody chaos. As Cpt. Stanley, Ray Winstone adroitly exploits his twin capacity for honest sentimentalism and sudden violence. At heart he's a decent man — his final aim is to civilize the apparently uncivilizable; but the violence he's willing to employ to do it threatens to explode out of control and destroy the idyll he's created for himself and his wife (Emily Watson), whom he shields meticulously from the harsh realities of their lives — thus inviting a kind of terminal blowback.
As Charlie, Guy Pearce, who really has now proved himself to be the more versatile and subtle of the two Antipodean actors we first saw in L. A. Confidential, is taciturn and tantalisingly ambivalent as the man who has to choose between two brothers. Meanwhile, the under-used Danny Huston works hard with the most unforgiving role, that of the elder brother who essentially serves as a walking question mark: will Charlie sacrifice him to save his younger sibling or not?
Director John Hillcoat (who worked with screenwriter Nick Cave on the equally hard-bitten prison drama Ghosts Of The Civil Dead) handles the violence with explosive precision. There's no misplaced slo-mo romanticism here, just the shocking reality of sudden death and, in the film's gruelling flogging sequence, a kind of gleeful sadism. Together with his cinematographer Benoît Delhomme, he renders the outback a sweltering, dust-clogged, fly-blasted purgatory, while Nick Cave delivers a screenplay that, in its tortured morality, blood-drenched imagery and final ambivalence, calls to mind, of all films, Taxi Driver.
If there's a niggle at all, it's David Wenham's turn as Eden Fletcher: a disappointingly two-dimensional chinless wonder of a Brit town boss — an excuse for some casual Pommie-bashing via a character straight from central casting. It's one of the very few flaws in an otherwise thoroughly impressive film.
Brutal, bloody and brilliant, this is superior filmmaking, and more evidence of the renaissance of the Australian film industry. One of the finest movies of the year so far.

Dr Joanne Taylor has worked on marine crustaceans at Museum Victoria since 1994.
Joanne commenced her career in Marine Science as a Research Assistant in the "Crustacea" Department at Museum Victoria in 1994. She completed a PhD in 2003 under the supervision of Dr Gary Poore (Museum Victoria) and Prof. David Macmillan (University of Melbourne) focused on the taxonomy of the amphipod family Phoxocephalidae. As Collection Manager of the Marine Invertebrates Department at MV (2001-2012), and more recently as Senior Collection Manager (2013-present), Jo has conducted research on the crustacean fauna of Australia whilst managing the vast Marine Invertebrates collection. Over this period she has supported the research activities of a wide network of local and international colleagues through the provision of specimens and data for loan and exchange. Throughout her career, Jo has been an enthusiastic supporter of the drive to present taxonomic information to a wide audience and is an active part of the team at MV preparing data and information for the Collections Online project.
Since 2009, Jo has ventured into the wonderful world of squat lobsters. In the role of Comarge Research Fellow (2009-2011), she teamed up with international colleagues to co-edit the award winning book The Biology of Squat Lobsters, whilst also publishing taxonomic papers and producing interactive delta keys to species. She has an ongoing interest in the phylogeny of the family Munidopsidae and is currently working with colleagues to resolve the classification of this fascinating group.
In 2011, Jo received a Smithsonian-funded Rubenstein Fellowship to publish species pages and images for squat lobsters on the Encylopedia of Life, one of the world's largest aggregators of biodiversity information. Jo has very much enjoyed representing the Indo-Pacific region as governor of The Crustacean Society for the past four years.
Squat Lobsters Research
Squat lobsters of the superfamilies Chirostyloidea and Galatheoidea are highly visible crustaceans on seamounts, continental margins, shelf environments, hydrothermal vents and coral reefs. About 1000 species are known. They frequently feature in deep-sea images taken by submersibles and are caught in large numbers by benthic dredges. Some species are so locally abundant that they form 'red tides'. Others support a variety of important fisheries. The 2011 publication of the bookThe Biology of Squat Lobsters of which Jo was a co-editor was a timely synthesis of what is known about these animals.
The taxonomy of squat lobsters has been intensively studied over the past few decades, making them one of the best known deepwater crustacean groups. In collaboration with colleagues at the Australian Museum and Australian Institute of Marine Science, Jo continues to study the phylogeny of this group, research which was originally funded by COMARGE and partly supported since by the Australian Museum's Geddes Visiting Research Fellowship and Smithsonian Rubenstein Fellowship.

Department of Insurance Issues Emergency STOLI Regulations
Effective July 29, 2010, less than a month after California's first Stranger Originated Life Insurance ("STOLI") legislation, Senate Bill 98, took effect, the California Department of Insurance ("DOI") issued emergency regulations designed to implement the legislation.
As previously reported, Senate Bill 98 proscribes STOLI transactions (defined as "act[s], practice[s], or arrangement[s] to initiate the issuance of a life insurance policy in this state for the benefit of a third-party investor who, at the time of policy origination, has no insurable interest, under the laws of this state, in the life of the insured") and restricts the transfer of life insurance policies during the first two years after their issuance.
The DOI's proposed regulations delineate procedures for the licensing of life settlement providers and brokers, specify forms for provider and broker applications and set forth procedures for the filing of life settlement forms with the Insurance Commissioner prior to use.
The proposed regulations also mandate certain disclosures to consumers, including the availability of alternatives to life settlement, the possible tax consequences of a life settlement and the potential limitations on the insured's ability to obtain additional life insurance following a life settlement.
Other states continue to join

It appears that the DHCP server implementation on that Philips router is
violating RFC 2131. On page 29, it states that a DHCPACK sent in

dhclient is probably right about rejecting it.

|[IPSEC] Too many SADs!
|Stephen Frost <sfrost@xxxxxxxxxxx>
|Mon, 21 Mar 2005 09:52:23 -0500
Greetings, This seems to be the right place for Linux 2.6 ipsec issues: Linux 2.6.10 + Virtual Server 1.9.4 + Patrick's IPSEC Netfilter patches i386 & amd64 (same source for both) Debian Racoon & ipsec-tools 0.5-4 Setting policies using setkey (not using racoon-tool) Using both transport and tunnels Problem: ===# setkey -D | grep '^[0-9]' | wc -l recv: Resource temporarily unavailable 443 ===# setkey -D | grep mature | wc -l recv: Resource temporarily unavailable 443 ===# setkey -D | grep tunnel | wc -l recv: Resource temporarily unavailable 18 ===# setkey -D | grep transport | wc -l recv: Resource temporarily unavailable 425 ===# ps auwx | grep racoon root 17722 3.8 2.0 178268 168252 ? Ss Mar20 28:39 /usr/sbin/racoon ===# setkey -D -P | grep '^[0-9]' | wc -l 34 ===# setkey -D -P | grep transport | wc -l 20 ===# setkey -D -P | grep tunnel | wc -l 14 I've seen the number of tunnel SADs go up a bunch too on another machine. I see that there's been some changes in 18.104.22.168 (or so?) wrt IPSEC and __xfrm_state_find_acq_byseq(), would that likely fix this problem? I don't tend to use /unique:x but rather /require; in my policies, would changing that fix this? I had originally been using a /24 for my transport policy and thought changing that to be a bunch of /32 policies for the specific machines I'm talking to would help- it didn't. Occationally (generally when I first get ipsec going between a couple machines) I see pmtu problems which kill that ssh, but after that it works. Not a big deal but I see alot of MTU discussion and patches, is that expected to be in 2.6.12? Thanks for any help, Stephen

LOS ANGELES - A convicted murderer who posed as a scion of the oil-rich Rockefeller family told a judge Thursday he has uncovered evidence in his case and wants to represent himself in a new trial.
Christian Karl Gerhartsreiter, 52, aka Clark Rockefeller, said the evidence came to light after a Superior Court jury in April found him guilty of killing San Marino resident John Sohus in 1985.
"(There is) new information we found about the victim's wife," Gerhartsreiter told Judge George Lomeli in his first extensive public comments since appearing on the Today Show in 2008. "I would like to proceed with that and also a retrial motion."
A life-long imposter and practiced grifter, Gerhartsreiter came to court dressed in a blue jailhouse jumpsuit. He did not say what new evidence he had uncovered. He spoke at length at several points during the proceedings.
John Sohus and his wife, Linda, disappeared from their San Marino home in early February 1985. John's body was discovered in 1994 by a pool contractor doing work at the location. Linda has not been heard from since.
Sentencing for Gerhartsreiter, who faces 25 years to life in state prison, had been scheduled for June 26. Lomeli postponed the hearing until Aug. 15.
He granted Gerhartsreiter's request to represent himself "in pro per" after offering up a warning:
"It is not advised," Lomeli said. "In this court's eyes, you will go up against an experienced district attorney. You are going to have to abide by the rules and protocols of this court. You're not going to get any kind of a break."
Lomeli also told Gerhartsreiter his retrial motion "is not a fishing expedition."
"You must have something in mind that you base your motion for retrial on," Lomeli said. "Because I'm granting you 'pro per' status you cannot re-litigate this case. You can't go out and send investigators out and find new information and so forth. You have to find some kind of error. Some individuals believe that granting pro per status allows them an opportunity to re-litigate everything. That's not what it's for."
Ellen Sohus, John's sister, said Thursday she wasn't surprised by Gerhartsreiter's move to fire his attorneys.
"From what I understand he is an extremely intelligent man and may believe he can represent himself better than his experienced attorneys were able to," she said.
Nonetheless, the potential for a retrial was disturbing.
"It does prolong the whole thing," she said. "You know every time something newsworthy happens about this case I feel sad. I feel a heaviness around my heart. I feel a lump in my throat.
"It's more and more difficult every time something new comes up. The thought of this whole process happening all over again is mind boggling."
Boston-based attorneys Jeff Denner, Brad Bailey and Danielle Menard participated in the hearing via teleconference. All three said they understood Gerhartsreiter's decision.
Denner had represented Gerhartsreiter since 2008.
"We understand that this is a request of his own free will and it has never been our position when a client made such a request to stand in the way of such a request," Bailey said.
As for his reason for requesting a new trial, Gerhartsreiter argued that prosecutor Habib Balian prejudiced the jury when he told the panel Gerhartsreiter killed the long-lost Linda Sohus. He was not charged in her disappearance or death.
"Specifically Mr. Balian argued that I also killed the victim's wife," he said. "And since the trial, new information has come forward concerning the possible whereabouts of the victim's wife. I need to find out where she might have been and in what time period."
Lomeli said he doubted the tactic would work.
"I don't have in my recollection that Mr. Balian ever argued you were responsible for the death of the female," Lomeli said before ordering that transcripts of the trial be turned over to Gerhartsreiter.
Denner and Bailey said they would be happy to furnish their former client with any documents he desired.
Despite the delay in sentencing, friends and family members of John and Linda Sohus plan to hold a memorial service Wednesday.
The event will take place at Descanso Gardens in La Canada Flintridge beginning at 5 p.m. A reception will follow.

|Jeffs Trip Up Tufts, Blasted by Biola
Jeffs Trip Up Tufts, Blasted by Biola
March 24, 2006
Senior pitcher Miya Warner (Berkeley, CA) led the way against Tufts, earning her fourth victory of the season with a three-hit, 10-strikeout performance on the hill. Rookie Lindsey Harrington (Westford, MA) plated classmate Julia Cummings (Los Angeles, CA) in the first inning with the first of her three hits, while junior Caroline Polales (Winnetka, IL) crossed the dish in the second frame after doubling to lead off the inning. Rookie Alexa Princi (London, England) accounted for the Jeffs' insurance tally in the sixth, scoring a sacrifice fly by sophomore Kelly King (Grosse Pointe Park, MI). Junior Annalise Rodli (La Canada, CA) and sophomore Elizabeth Neckes (Dover, MA) posted a pair of hits apiece.
After giving up a run to start the game against Biola, Amherst bounced back with a trio of runs in the bottom half of the first. Sophomore Ralina Shaw (Tumwater, WA) knocked home all three with her third round-tripper of the season. Biola added another score in the second, but Amherst responded again in the third as King scored Polales with a double down the left-field line, and scored herself on a base hit by Princi. However, this was the end of the Amherst scoring, while Biola exploded for 10 runs in the fifth and sixth innings and three more in the seventh. Sophomore hurler Samantha Miller (Newton, MA) took the loss, giving up just two earned runs in four innings of work. Warner and rookie Maddie Tamagni (Salinas, CA) finished the game surrendering a combined 10 runs (four earned).
Amherst returns to action Wednesday at 3:30 p.m. with a doubleheader against visiting WPI.

Drosera regia is a carnivorous plant in the sundew genus Drosera and is endemic to a single valley in South Africa. Apparently there are only about 50 plants left, making it a very endangered although not particularly dangerous species. Unless you are smaller than a cat. And live in said valley. NOTHING compared to the triffids, which by definition inhabits Australia.
Speaking of Australia (I'd rather not), Apple Maps as it appears on iPhone 5 has a spot of trouble with down under. According to the Norwegian broadcasting company Apple claims that Mildura (wherever that is) is in the middle of Murray Sunset national park (wherever that is), which is unfortunate because in reality is 70 km away (wherever that is). This has caused several life-threatening episodes, which is kind of silly, since every day in Australia is a life-threatening episode.
pibbur who knows this from several tv-shows from down under (wherever that is).
PS. Berlin is according to our broadcasting company according to Apple in Antarctica. (I know where that is, can't be more down under than that). DS

Translated Speech of
His Eminence Ameer Muhammad Akram Awan
Shaikh Silsilah Naqshbandiah Owaisiah
I vividly remember that when Taliban came to power in Afghanistan, and their regime was duly recognized by Pakistan, it was for the first time that the Afghans were persuaded to surrender their arms. An exemplary peace was established after years of anarchy and unrest. Is it not extra ordinary that it was achieved without firing a single bullet! Although Taliban were still preoccupied with Jihad and the country was in a state of war, yet miraculously all kinds of crimes vanished from their land. Most part of Afghanistan was under the control of Taliban who were led by Mulla Umar.
It is however important to bear in mind that some people in Pakistan have also called themselves as Taliban, or say this name was given to them, but the majority among them is of those criminals who would kill innocent people for money on the behest of foreign agencies. They are also responsible for acts of explosions. Even the Masajid are not safe from their despicable acts. So, I am not talking about these people, who are neither justified in their actions nor do I support them. Rather, our interior minister has dubbed them as "Zaliman" (aggressors) and cautioned that they must not be considered as "Taliban" (students). However, I am concerned with only those Taliban who are practicing Muslims, are upright and appreciate righteousness. They were and are fighters for the just cause and are still busy fighting against the foreign aggressors. They tried to govern Afghanistan in the light of "Khilafat-e Islamia" and chose Mulla Umar as its Khalifah (head of the state). The land of Afghanistan is witness to the model peace that Taliban were able to establish. The intellectuals are right, when they criticize that they could not establish institutions, but in doing so they forgot that the Taliban emerged on the horizon because of their belief in Jihad and were still involved in war of all sorts. But despite that, they were able to provide inimitable justice which led to peace, the likes of which are rarely seen. Governors and other members of the government were living the life of an ordinary citizen, and anybody at anytime could approach them. Later on, only Ahmed Shah Masood from the Punj Sher Valley continued to fight with them, otherwise peace had prevailed in the rest of the country. And then ... that tragic event occurred in America, which is known as 9/11. This unparalleled phenomenon proved to be so monumental that it turned the tide of time. Apparently, two aeroplanes burst into two buildings destroying them. But the after-effects of that catastrophe are still felt reverberating the world even today.
It is said that about five thousand people died in that grave incident but the whole world was pulled under its gravity and millions of people have been killed with impunity in different countries. There is little doubt that Afghanistan has suffered the most, but Pakistan's loss is no less, and there still seems no sign of abating. May Allah protect us all! Anyhow a situation had arisen wherein the blame was squarely put on Al-Qaeda and Osama Bin Laden. Whether it was right or wrong is a separate issue, but as a result, America asked the Afghan Government to hand over Osama Bin Laden to them, who was living in Afghanistan at that time. The Afghan Government argued that the demand was not justified merely on the basis of allegations. Yes. if a tangible proof against him was provided to them, they would certainly hand him over to the Americans. It infuriated America. Arrogant of their super power status they could not believe that a poor country like Afghanistan would dare ask for a proof. They rather expected that their orders should have been obeyed without any questions asked. This was what was at the surface of the matter. But the fact that lay hidden beneath was entirely different, which in my opinion was something like this:
That if the Taliban continued to govern the way they were, then the whole world would eventually accept them. Perhaps even the Americans, as a nation, may also be influenced and begin to convert to Islam, which will make it a dominant force. And that would mean the beginning of the end of their culture. I have myself heard the American President Bush say on the television, "...they were going to finish our culture around the globe." This was the core issue at the heart of the matter, which our intellectuals have yet to comprehend. Anyway, the situation kept on worsening as the American pressure mounted. America also convinced other nations to its point of view, while Afghanistan remained focused on its principle stand. Meanwhile, the circumstances continued to deteriorate until America attacked Afghanistan. My opinion even at that time was that the ghost of Al-Qaeda was the brainchild of America, since this name was never heard before. The American Government and Jews collaborated to plan the insidious 9/11 event, so that a reason could be created to attack Afghanistan. A lot has been said and written even in America on this topic as well as on the war between America and Iraq. I also happen to get hold of two or tree copies of these books. In any case America attacked Afghanistan along with the armies of some 38 countries. This was no small matter. If one cares to think, the enormity of the incident would dawn on them. It was a moment of such magnitude that the ensuing 'shock-waves' had literally disturbed the balance of the whole world... and they still do. Its consequences are still felt even after ten or eleven years. High-flying modern American aeroplanes were dropping bombs on the soil of Afghanistan. At that time an American television team had visited me to know my views about the 9/11. I said the same thing to them that I am saying today. I remember that the American interviewer turned red, on which I asked him if he was a Jew, to which he replied he was not but that he was an American at least. I offered him some sweets so as to cool him down and sweeten his feelings and packed the remaining candies for him to take for his team-mates. He also asked me, what would happen when soon the Afghan government would fall and the American army would occupy Afghanistan. I said the war will begin only then. America is bombarding from the air today, but to 'occupy Afghanistan, they will have to fight on the ground. When that happens, then the real war will begin.
Despite all this, how I had wished that Mulla Umar could have been a little diplomatic in his approach, in order to avoid a direct confrontation of this small poor Islamic state with the world of non-believers. But what can you say of the deep faith of this man who said 'if we live, it would be a life of righteousness, and if we die it would be in the way of Allah. In either case the blessings of Allah will be with us. ' Anyhow, the war erupted and the government of Afghanistan was toppled. America and its allies occupied the country and deployed a destructive net of weapons and fire on its soil. Decades before this, the ten years of the Russian occupation saw the life, property and honour of the Muslim Afghans trampled. And now once again it was at the mercy of the Americans.
Mulla Umar was a simple countryman even while living in the president house. He would sit on a floor mat sipping green tea and eating rusks for his breakfast. He would use a motorbike to go from one village to another. Our former president Musharraf use to cynically remark that Mulla Umar had fled from his country on a motorbike, but Mullah Umar and his motorbike is still in that country roaming around the same villages, while our president himself has fled from his country. whatever happened, it makes one wonder about the unshakable faith of this man in Allah, that 'even if America attacks, I have Allah on my side because I am fighting in the defense of His Deen (religion) and in the footsteps of Prophet Mohammad S.A.W.S. Allah willing America will be defeated.' Who would have believed at that time what this man was saying. They rather dismissed it as a frivolous claim of a crazy man. But today, after so many years not only America but also its 38 allies are facing defeat. And that humble, selfless, and Allah -fearing man seems destined to succeed. All of this seems extraordinary, a Divine Act, and a miracle of the Holy Prophet S.A.W.S. How else one can interpret the ultimate outcome of that war? By just mentioning these events in passing I wanted to say that the attack of America and its allied forces on the nascent government of Afghanistan was colossal event. The consequences of this event for once have changed the pages of history and its repercussions have been felt by the whole world. I do not wish to indulge in the discussion of who suffered what and how much. But everyone knows what destruction it caused. The world is still shaking with awe from its effects.
But just visualize how the "lord America" and its supporting countries are now preparing to leave, because one day they have to; but they are doing so without accomplishing their mission. They were squarely beaten and that down-to-earth villager who likes to travel on his motorbike is about to taste victory. Victor he is, by the grace of Allah, but some ends remain to be completed.
Now, in this background there appears a scenario:
The result of American attack and its ultimate defeat at the hands of a weaponless, faithful Muslim will prove to be catastrophe. Just imagine what would be the reaction of the world to this disaster and how far its consequences would be felt. it is my personal opinion that there will be a great revolution in the Indo-Pak sub-continent and those Asian states which were directly affected. As a result of this revolution there will be peace and justice. The blood of all the people who died in the cause of Allah and of other innocent people will colour the whole society. Only then peace, amity, and Islam would reign supreme, and InshaAllah its impact will be felt by the world community at large. Every thinking person should be able to see, according to his own vision a slightly hazy picture of the time to come. A memorable event is about to occur, as it surely will InshaAllah but it is perhaps beyond my power of writing to portray it. But one thing is certain that all kinds of excesses would be eliminated and honesty and justice will prevail. In my opinion, the world is at the edge of a momentous positive change. Please think and see, what kind of scenario does your mind develop.

Air Force hosts the 45th annual event at the Eisenhower Golf Club - Blue Course. The 54-hole tournament is slated to begin with two rounds on Sunday with a shotgun start and the final round will be on Monday.

Sixteen teams are slated to compete in this year's tournament. They are: Air Force, Air Force JV, Colorado, Colorado State, Maryland, Nevada, New Mexico State, Northern Colorado, Southern Utah, UMKC, Utah, Utah State, UTEP, Weber State, Wichita State and Wyoming.

Northwoods Blue Cheese Spread
Recipe by PalatablePastime
Blue cheese spreads usually contain port, or bacon as another option, but at a party with those who abstain from meat or alcohol, those may not be the best choices. This spread is wonderful for everyone. Bring this out to soften before serving. To extend serving time, you may want to set a dish of this in another dish of crushed ice.
Top Review by twissis
This was a real treat & a nice surprise for DH tonite as b4 dinner finger-food. I made a half recipe for 2 of us, plumped the dried cranberries (recipe did not say) & used pecans as I had them left from holiday baking. All things work here to create a great taste & texture, perfect to serve w/water crackers, carrot sticks & grapes that I used. This will make a very nice quick-fix for surprise guests. Thx for sharing the recipe w/us. :-)

Taste of Country Video of the Day — Josh Turner 'Long Black Train' [VIDEO]
It took 10 months for Josh Turner's "Long Black Train" to reach its #13 peak on the Billboard Country Charts. That's a long time, but then again it's a song about a "long black train." And it's become one of Josh's signature songs, if not THE signature Josh Turner tune. You'll hear it Saturday at Ellis Park during the Taste of Country concert when Josh joins another Josh–Josh Thompson–along with Casey James from "American Idol," Glen Templeton, and Strait Laced for a full evening of great country music. The $25 admission tickets will be available at the gate, but beat the lines and buy 'em early at the WBKR studios. And we'll see you Saturday.
Here is your Taste of Country Video of the Day–"Long Black Train" by Josh Turner.

|Monday March 4, 2002
Telematics gear is fast expanding past navigation devices and rear-seat DVDs, as new technology such as satellite radios gain traction. Within two years, motorists can expect to get traffic reports specific to their location or commute. Advanced vehicle diagnostics would let cars automatically transmit performance data to dealerships.
Some companies are working on wireless technologies that one day - perhaps in five to 10 years - would allow users to get new movies and songs wirelessly from home, petrol stations and convenience stores. Other technologies could control thermostats and lights at home while driving.
For start-ups and tech giants alike, cars represent untapped frontier. Automakers, meanwhile, are looking to cater to the lifestyle of the digital road warrior.
"People are used to using wireless communications and having continual contact with office and home, and people are used to using these technologies on the road," said Dan Garretson, automotive industry analyst for Cambridge, Massachusetts-based Forrester Research.
That is why some observers believe the market for automotive electronics is on the verge of a boom.
Forrester predicts the industry will grow in annual revenues to $US20 billion ($A38.93 billion) in 2006 from $US1.6 billion ($A3.11 billion) in 2001.
In five years, Forrester predicts, carmakers will be installing telematics devices in about 80 per cent of new vehicles. Nearly 40 million cars will come with handsfree cell phones. More than 46 million will have monitoring systems that connect motorists to roadside assistance.
Just two years ago, telematics products consisted mainly of navigation systems offered only in a few high-end cars and the fledgling OnStar service from General Motors.
Today, navigation options are also found in mid-range cars, and factory-installed satellite radios, offered first by Cadillac in two of its 2002 models, are making its way into dozens more 2003 models, including cars by GM, Ford and DaimlerChrysler.
"By this time next year, I think you'll see nearly all SUVs and minivans have these rear-seat DVD consoles," said Bob Schumacher, head of mobile multimedia at Delphi Automotive Systems, the world's largest maker of car parts.
Still, high price tags will keep many features from becoming as standard as AM-FM radios, carmakers say. An in-dash DVD player with rear-seat display or a navigation system typically costs $US1,500 ($A2,920) to $US2,000 ($A3,890). OnStar fees range from $US200 ($A390) to $US400 ($A780) a year.
After a year of offering navigation systems on its entire Acura line, Honda found that only about five per cent of buyers wanted the option. Sales of rear-seat DVD players offered in its Odyssey minivans stayed flat at about 15 per cent of all models sold.
All that could change, industry analysts believe, with more personalised telematics services, which might attract consumers who are reluctant or cannot afford to pay extra for the goodies.
For example, OnStar's technology and services coming soon from MobileAria Inc and Wingcast LLC will let motorists access e-mails, voice messages, music, directions, traffic reports, stocks and Internet news items - all with voice commands.
Later this year, new devices based on global positioning satellite technologies will notify car owners if their vehicles go beyond geographic parameters they have established.
Ford is working on better roadside assistance that would automatically call for help once a car's air bags are deployed.
"Cars are becoming more and more of a commodity, so you really have to offer a service component to differentiate yourself," said Thilo Koslowski, lead automotive analyst for the Gartner G2 market research firm. "And that's where telematics comes in."

The Service Employees International Union Local 521, which represents more than half of Palo Alto's workforce, is scheduled to continue its negotiations with the city this spring. Last year, the two sides failed to reach a consensus on a new contract, prompting the City Council to unilaterally impose conditions on about 600 workers.
Dozens of union members met before this week's City Council meeting to discuss the status of negotiations. Many wore stickers urging the council to take a "new direction" in their negotiations this year. The council includes four newly elected members, including two — Gail Price and Nancy Shepherd — who earned the union's endorsement before the November election.
The City Council spent several hours in a closed-door session Monday night discussing labor negotiations,
Lynn Krug, chair of the SEIU chapter, said Monday night that the union would like to see the city conduct an "organizational survey" that examines the city's services, its manager-to-employee ratio and the personnel required to provide these services. Without such a survey, both sides would have to rely on "conjecture and politics" during the negotiations, Krug said.
The new study would give the city and the union an objective baseline that could be used during the upcoming negotiations, she said.
"Employee morale has suffered greatly," Krug told the council. "We have been in disarray because of all the ambiguity."
City Manager James Keene said some of the questions the SEIU had raised about employee ratios are worth considering. But he cautioned that discussions of employee numbers should be tied to the larger question of making the city government efficient — a question that would not be answered with numbers alone.
Keene said the city should also think about new policy and procedures that would make the operation more efficient, as well as programs and services that could be eliminated.
"The bigger question is, 'What are the process improvements that can make the organization more nimble, more effective and more responsible?'" Keene said. "I think this requires a broader scope of work than is being talked about."
Keene said the city has held informal discussions with the SEIU to learn more about the type of study the union is seeking. The city budgets for 617 full-time SEIU positions, though 66 of these positions are now vacant, according to the city's Human Resources Department.
SEIU Local 521 is one of several worker groups with whom Palo Alto will be trying to reach an agreement this year. The city is also planning to renew its negotiations with the firefighters' union; the new Palo Alto Police Managers' Association, which represents high-ranking police officers; and the Management and Professionals Group, which is not represented by a union.
The city is also awaiting the results of a new study that assesses the current staffing levels and staffing needs in the Fire Department. The study is scheduled to be completed by early April, about the time Palo Alto is scheduled to negotiate with the International Association of Firefighters on a new contract. The firefighters union's contract is scheduled to expire on June 30.
Meanwhile, the city's negotiations with its largest police union will now wait until 2011. On Monday, the City Council finalized its agreement with the Palo Alto Peace Officers' Association to defer salary raises for 80 of the union's 83 members until fiscal year 2011, which begins July 1. The agreement also extends the police union's contract until June 30, 2011.
Keene said the city's negotiations with the various unions are expected to begin this spring. Though he said it's too early to tell what sort of concessions the city will seek from the various labor groups, he expects the city to seek similar savings from each group.
"It's really important that all of the various employee groups make similar contributions to help solve the city's financial problems," Keene said. "It's not fair to balance concessions of cost savings on just one subset of our city workers."

|I'd bring some nuts or cams (small - med) to protect the runout at the top. There are placements in the crack to the left that you can make before committing to the final face moves to the rap anchors.
By Bob Gaines
Jan 29, 2016
rating: 5.11a 6c 22 VII+ 22 E3 5c
Climb a beautiful slab past 2 bolts (5.10b/c; well-protected at the crux) then run it out a bit on easier slab (5.7/8) to a steeper section with 3 closely-spaced bolts (5.10+). At the 5th bolt traverse straight left past a 6th bolt over to a crack/corner (optional belay here at the 2-bolt anchor for Pugsley to reduce rope drag).
On this crux traverse you'll encounter poor rock with disintegrating edges. This section is getting harder and harder as holds are getting stripped off and is now more like 5.11. From here climb past 2 more bolts (5.11a) up to a crack (1-inch CD). From here you can move right and up to the 2-bolt anchor for Addams Family (100-foot Rap.)
The original route followed the crack up to the top of Chili Dog, where you'll find a bolt anchor. From here, a <100-foot rap takes you down to the 2-bolt anchor used to descend from Leap Year Flake, then one more (<100 foot) rappel gets you to the ground.
Pro: 8 bolts, gear to 3 inches.
FA: Rondo Powell, Joe Bentley, and Bob Gaines, 1988
The Morticia variation (5.10d) moves right for the 5th bolt, joining Addams Family for its top section. This variation avoids the flakey upper section of Mojus, for a higher quality pitch.

She's come a long way since her "Twilight Saga" film days, and Ashley Greene is hotter than ever on the front page of Shape magazine's April 2016 issue.
Actress Ashley Greene has settled a lawsuit with her former doorman over a blaze at her apartment.
Fire broke out at the Twilight star's home in Granville Towers, West Hollywood in 2013 after an unattended candle set light to a couch while the actress, her brother and a boyfriend were sleeping.
It's the biggest night of the year for Broadway and the 2015 Tony Awards kicked off on Sunday (June 7) with hosts Alan Cumming and Kristin Chenoweth at the helm.
The 2015 Academy Awards is coming up this weekend, and last night (February 17) BVLGARI & Save The Children Stop Think Give celebrated with a star-studded shindig.
The Pre-Oscar party took place at Spago and Ashley Greene couldn't help but show off her stunning physique in a gorgeous black dress.
Making the most of Monday evening (November 3), Alessandra Ambrosio, Karlie Kloss and Lily Aldridge all made their way to Spring Studios for the 11th Annual CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund Awards.
Never shy about showing off her form, Ashley Greene can't help but look flawless in her cover shot for the November 2014 issue of Women's Health magazine.
In her interview, the 27-year-old "Twilight: New Moon" starlet confesses that when it comes to pigging out, nothing satisfies like pickles.
Taking a break from her usual SoCal digs, Ashley Greene traveled to Chicago, Illinois for the W Chicago Lakeshore Renovation Reveal Party last night (July 31).
The "Twilight Saga: Eclipse" starlet was all smiles as she mingled with fellow guests while wearing a beautiful black and white printed dress.
Last year, he asked fans to back his new film via Kickstarter and last night (July 14) Zach Braff unveiled "Wish I Was Here" at a special New York City screening.
