Care For Some Afternoon DemocraTea?
Tea Baggers (heh) may be rallying against Obama's tax proposals, but perhaps they don't know that Mr. President is a Tea Bagger (haha) himself. Thanks to a German design company called Donkey Products, you can now dunk political figures affixed to sachets to flavor your afternoon cup. The line comes in three collections: DemocraTea, depicting world leaders, StripTea with naughty strippers, or RoyalTea with Tony Blair and the Queen herself. RoyalTea, we'd imagine, would contain an English brew, but we're curious as to what the others would be. Guesses for Vladimir Putin's flavor? [Gizmodo.com]

Aspen is known for its social and cultural influence as much as it is recognized as one of Colorado's finest vacation destinations. From its beginning as a silver-mining camp in the 1800s through the growth of four world-class ski resorts, Aspen Mountain, Aspen Highlands, Buttermilk and Snowmass, Aspen has always stood out as one of the world's top mountain destinations.
Whether you like cruising perfectly manicured groomers, coasting through powdery glades or testing your mettle on the backcountry-style, hike-to steeps of Aspen Highland Bowl, Aspen Snowmass delivers it all to every stripe of skier or rider ability and preference. In addition, non skiers or those looking for apres-ski dining, shopping and nightlife will adore the many options in downtown Aspen.
Aspen is also one of the most accessible resort destinations in Colorado.
Aspen is a quick three-hour, 48-minute drive from the Denver International Airport, or just five minutes from the Aspen-Pitkin Regional Airport (ASE).
The Aspen Snowmass "Power of Four" ski resorts offer 5,547 total acres of terrain, eight parks and 336 trails served by 42 lifts. Few destinations can offer such varied terrain and experiences.

Pharmacy students receive first white coats of their career
Posted on August 26, 2014 in Pharmacy, Students
Campbell University's College of Pharmacy & Health Sciences (CPHS) rounded out its back-to-school events with the Doctor of Pharmacy Class of 2018 White Coat Ceremony on Friday, August 22.The White Coat Ceremony marks the transition from pre-professional to professional students and represents the responsibility students undertake upon matriculating through a pharmacy program.
The College's largest pharmacy class to date was addressed by Ronald W. Maddox, dean of CPHS, and Erin Bastidas, a 2000 graduate of the program and current president of the CPHS Alumni Association Board of Directors.
Maddox shared with the audience personal experiences of his time as a community pharmacist and the importance of patient care. Although the majority of his career is rooted in academia, Maddox spent a brief period of time on the front lines of pharmacy immediately following his graduation.
"My last few weeks at the pharmacy were filled with cookies, cakes, pies, and gifts of gratitude for my work there," shared Maddox, "but it was never about me. I went to work with one goal - to help my patients. That is what made the difference."
Maddox's remarks were followed by a professionalism address by Bastidas who shared memories of her time at the then Campbell University School of Pharmacy as well as the pillars of professionalism in the health care community. Bastidas urged students to understand the magnitude of the education they are embarking on.
"Simply by wearing a white coat, you will garner the respect of many," said Bastidas. "You must work to keep their respect. You must show your patients and colleagues your commitment to them by continuing to make solid choices in your career."
After sharing several memories from her time at the then Campbell University School of Pharmacy, Bastidas encouraged the cohort to respect the foundation laid by the alumni of her alma mater.
"You will be wearing a CPHS patch on your white coat. Do not underestimate the importance of that. When people see that CPHS logo, they may already have set in their minds the standards they expect you to uphold. Respect the patch."
The ceremony concluded with the class being invited to the stage, one-by-one, to receive their first white coats as family, friends and faculty of CPHS looked on.

There is still no word on what Kurt Angle's status with TNA is now that he was released from rehab, and no word on when he will return to iMPACT!.
However, Angle is currently booked for the upcoming Team 3D Academy event on September 14th at the Melbourne Auditorium in Melbourne, Florida. Unless he shows up for the "No Surrender" edition of iMPACT! or a TNA live event within the week, this will be his first show after leaving rehab. The event is presented for the "Hope For A Single Mom" charity.
Others scheduled to appear include Hulk Hogan, Devon, Garret Bischoff, Wes Brisco, Mike Knox, Samoa Joe, Sam Shaw, So Cal Val and Jay Lethal.
Jay Lethal mixed in with all TNA wrestlers….. When will TNA re-sign him??
Hopefully never. He's having awesome matches in ROH. I find that much more entertaining than TNA having him talk like that Macho Man.
I met Sting today at an event in Mansfield, Tx. He said there's no way anyone could know that Kurt has been released from rehab because nobody is allowed to talk to him. As far as sting knew, he's still in rehab. Wen I mentioned that rumor websites have said Kurt was out stings exact words were "oh I hope not, that's too soon."
Just a tidbit of info.
Omg hate this time of life, why ow why does he have to return. He's still got to much beef in this life to be wrestling. 🙁 Kurt stay in rehab best place for U n ur type!!! Beef foreva but not Kurt beef!!!
Kill yourself <3

Also U keep stalking tna n U don't even know how to wrestle, so take ur big beefy ass bk to rehab where there's more beefy ppl. The ragga muffin dnt like U, like the ragga muffin gettin angry.

Hello to all BackTrack community.
I have a problem, I created an environment that i expect to attack, im using 4 computers, one with BackTrack the attacker and the others are using Windows 7, Windows XP and Linux CentOS.
What i want to do is get full access to those computers. Well all computers are full patched, i mean no ms08... exploits will work. I know i can exploit the XP machine that way but i want to perform a advanced attack. What i tought that would work was using the "java_rhino" exploit.
1) I spoofed the ARP table of all computers, all the traffic going on, pass through BT machine, i used:
#echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forwarding
#arpspoof -i eth0 -t (victim ip) (router ip)
2) With armitage I found all the computers i want to get access. I had to disable the firewall on Windows Machines since i don't know how to get through the firewall with ICMP packets (if anyone wants to help me with that too, i would be gratefull)
3) I started the "java_rhino" exploit. The victims need to get to the "website" http://192.168.1.100:53/" so i can get the attack done.
4) I created a list of websites that are common that people to visit, since i dont want to go direct to http://192.168.1.100:53/ input on browser and i want to redirect those websites to http://192.168.1.100:53/.
#echo www.google.com > websites.txt ; echo www.facebook.com >> websites.txt ; echo www.youtube.com >> websites.txt
5) I read about hijacking the browser session on a Book about backtrack, written by Vivek Ramachandran, he used on an exaple:
#dnsspoof -i mitm-bridge
mitm-bridge is a bridge that he created comming from a honeypot
I used:
#dnsspoof -i ath0 websites.txt
6) Every time the user connects to www.google.com it gets to a webpage with the text "It works" because he started an apache server.
I don't have apache started but i have the "java_rhino" working as a server.
The problem is that i can't get access to the machines, only if i write http://192.168.1.100:53/, but that takes the fun part out of the attack.
I garantee that i'm performing this in my own network with my own computers. I hope that anyone could help me, thank you very much for reading the post.

For a wake up call on how much flesh we eat, a day in a chicken processing plant is hard to beat. Live chickens sit quietly in crates at one end soon to appear at the other, neatly sliced or diced. The day I was there around 75,000 chickens were killed, processed and packed in cling wrap ready to send to a supermarket near you. That's around one million birds a month from a single plant – a drop in the bucket of the 459 million chickens slaughtered in Australia each year.
I left this plant impressed and distressed in equal amounts – impressed at the operation's squeaky clean efficiency, but distressed by the numbers of birds that die to keep us in kebabs and stir fry strips. It's not like industrial scale killing is any big secret - one glance in the supermarket chiller tells us we're chowing down a lot of animals.But a first hand view of the process that turns so many warm living things into cold naked fillets provides a different perspective. So with that in mind I set myself a challenge: take a good chicken recipe and cook it – without the chicken.
That's not as nuts as it sounds. While a plate of roast chicken depends on the flavour of the meat itself, a curry depends as much on its mix of spices. So with Karen Martini's excellent recipe for butter chicken in one hand and some red lentils in the other, I produced a respectable curry. Not quite as rich as the original chicken version, but in its own way just as good because the lentils soaked up the flavours. It also had something extra - the satisfaction that comes from making nourishing food for which nothing has to get the chop.
This isn't about getting militant about meat – or about criticising the chicken industry, which didn't shy away from letting a lentil-loving journalist like me through the doors of a processing plant. It's about questioning the casual use of so many living things to produce more animal food than we need to eat. Animal welfare in food production might be higher on the national radar than ever before, but the bottom line is that we'd make things better for animals if we just ate fewer of them – and counted the health benefits of eating, not no meat, but less.
It looks like more people are heading this way. In Australia there are signs that we're making more meat free meals – the arrival of the British meat alternative Quorn last year boosted the number of frozen vegetarian foods in supermarkets by 51 per cent. In the UK, celebrity chef and former carnivore- Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall announced that most of the meals he eats now contain no meat or fish - and that he eats better than ever. The recipes in his latest book River Cottage Veg Every Day are all vegetable based. Meanwhile, a new report of food trends in Europe and the US by market researchers Euromonitor International predicts that a gradually growing population of 'vegetarians, semi-vegetarians, meat-reducers and vegivores is set to consume more meat-free foods than ever before' and increase sales of meat alternatives over the next four years.
Don't know what a vegivore is? Neither did I until I found an explanation in the New York Times Magazine which defines it as someone who's not so much ardently anti-meat as passionately pro-vegetable – a lot like Fearnley-Whittingstall. You don't have to be a vegetarian to be a vegivore – instead you're happy to eat an all-vegetable meal sometimes or to make plant foods the main focus of a dish with meat as a supporting act or a condiment. In other words it's a new recognition that a meal without meat as its centrepiece isn't incomplete.
Eat like a vegivore
- Bring on the spice Big flavours like cumin and ras-el hanouf or a sprinkling of dukka bring out the best in pulses and grains
- Cook with quinoa This high protein seed cooks like a grain and is a great base for pilafs flavoured with chilli, mushrooms, roast veg and nuts
- Add nuts The plant world's most convenient protein – stir fry cashews with Asian greens or mix pistachios or crushed hazelnuts with vegetables or grains
Karen Martini's Butter Chicken
Also a great base for a vegetarian curry if you swap lentils for the chicken, and vegetable stock for the chicken stock. I didn't add the butter at the end either. To make the veggie version, skip the marinade and just add all the spice mixture to the onions, then add 1.5 cups of red lentils and 4.5 cups of vegetable stock, along with the tomato puree and other ingredients. You can also add potato and cauliflower to this, and stir in some plain yoghurt with the fresh coriander at the end of cooking. This veggie version serves about 4.
1kg boneless, skinless chicken thigh fillets, each cut into 4 or 1.5 cups red lentils for a vegivore version
juice of 2 limes
2 tsp red chilli powder
1 tbsp sea salt
6 cloves
8-10 peppercorns
2 sticks cinnamon
2 bay leaves
80g almonds
3 tbsp ground coriander
4 cardamom pods
3 tbsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp ground turmeric
1 cup plain yoghurt
3 tbsp vegetable oil
2 brown onions,
finely sliced
5cm piece ginger, chopped
10 cloves garlic,
finely sliced
410g can tomato purée
2 tbsp tomato paste
2 litres chicken stock (0r 4.5 cups vegetable stock for the lentil version)
1 tbsp fenugreek seeds
2 red chillies, split
3 tbsp butter, softened
coriander leaves
steamed basmati rice
Place chicken, lime juice, chilli powder and salt in a large non-metallic bowl and mix. Cover and allow to marinate.
Meanwhile, in a pan over medium heat, gently toast cloves, peppercorns, cinnamon, bay leaves and almonds so they darken slightly, then set aside to cool. Add coriander, seeds from cardamom pods, cumin and tumeric and grind in a mortar and pestle into a coarse powder. Combine half this spice powder with yoghurt and add it to chicken mix. Marinate for 1 hour.
Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat. Add onions, ginger, garlic and remaining spice mix and fry until golden brown. If you're doing the vegetarian version, add the all the spice mix to the onions.
If using chicken, add now and fry to seal. Otherwise, add lentils, tomato purée, tomato paste, stock, fenugreek seeds and red chillies. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to low and cook for 45-50 minutes or until chicken (lentils) are tender and gravy is half its original volume.
Garnish with coriander leaves and serve with steamed basmati rice.
How often do you cook a meatfree meal?

World powers will meet Iranian top representatives to discuss the Islamic state's disputed nuclear programme in Istanbul at the end of January, a Russian official said on Thursday.
The so-called "P5+1" nations -- Iran and the five permanent UN Security Council members along with Germany -- had not all met since a June meeting in Moscow.
But an unnamed Russian source told the state RIA Novosti agency that the next meeting has been provisionally scheduled for the end of the month in Istanbul -- host of the first such talks in April 2012.
The source did not name a specific date or say when one might be announced.
Three prior "P5+1" meetings have been held at the most senior level envisioned for the Istanbul session.
None has produced a compromise that sees the powers accept Irans right to enrich uranium in exchange for its provision of access to closed nuclear facilities and promise not to make higher-grade material.
Israel, widely considered the Middle East's sole if undeclared nuclear power, and much of the West suspects Iran is trying to develop atomic weapons under the guise of its nuclear programme, a charge Tehran denies.

AT&T Corp. posted a net loss of US$975 million for its first fiscal quarter as revenue continues to deteriorate in long-distance telecommunications. Still, AT&T's results were above analysts' expectations.
AT&T reported a net loss of $0.05 per diluted share from continuing operations and a total loss of $0.28 per diluted share, the company said in a release before New York financial markets opened Wednesday. The results include an accounting charge of $856 million related to adopting new financial accounting practices. AT&T reported net losses of $192 million in the same quarter last year. Analysts polled by Thomson Financial/First Call expected earnings of $0.03 a share in a consensus estimate.
Pro forma revenue for the Basking Ridge, New Jersey, carrier was $12.02 billion, an 8.4 percent decline from the first quarter of 2001. Pro forma revenue adjusts for the closure of Excite@Home Inc., the bankrupt cable Internet service provider in which AT&T held a 38 percent ownership stake. Pro forma also adjusts for the acquisition or sale of other cable assets. Reported revenue including those items declined 11.3 percent from the same quarter last year.
The profit margins for several AT&T business units remain under pressure from competition. AT&T Business reported a margin of 13.5 percent for earnings before interest and taxes, excluding other expense and income, compared with 16.5 percent in the year-ago quarter. AT&T Consumer reported a margin of 26.3 percent compared with 32.8 percent in the year-ago quarter. AT&T Broadband reported a margin of 19 percent, compared with 20.4 percent in the first quarter 2001, excluding the impact of the costs of merging the unit with Comcast Corp.
It's still a tough market, said David Dorman, AT&T's president, in a conference call. The company is facing pressure from "tightened customer spending, coupled with industry overcapacity and the tactics of several cash-starved players," he said.
Data and IP (Internet protocol) services continued to grow rapidly while long-distance revenue continued to shrink. Packet services revenue, including frame relay, IP and ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) grew about 20 percent, the company said. Long-distance revenue declined about 19 percent.
With the spin-off of AT&T Wireless Services Inc. and the pending sale of AT&T Broadband, the remaining parts of AT&T are under pressure to produce.
"They spun off all the growth in the business," said David Cooperstein, research director for the telecom market at Forrester Research Inc. "They're basically in a spiral. This is a technology-driven decline, not a market-driven decline."
The question AT&T must answer is whether it can quickly change its networks from primarily carrying voice traffic to carrying data traffic, Cooperstein said. It must do this as soon as possible, because increasingly customers are choosing to use Internet-based communications -- such as e-mail, instant messaging and voice over IP -- instead of long-distance calls.
The company predicted annual revenue growth of in the low double digit percentages for its cable unit, long-distance revenue to decline by 20 percent or more for the year, and a 2 percent to 3 percent decline in revenue for its business services unit.

By Bryce Miller, Des Moines Register
Yes, Rulon Gardner still has his amputated toe in a jar. And yes, it's still in his fridge at home.
The iconic Greco-Roman wrestling competitor who won Olympic gold and bronze medals before retiring in 2004, is attempting a world-stage comeback at age 40.
Gardner, who gained cross-over fame by competing on the hit reality show "The Biggest Loser," is on a calorie-crushing crusade to ultimately lose more than 210 pounds in time for the U.S. Olympic Team Trials April 21-22 in Iowa City, Iowa.
As Gardner prepared for the Athens Olympics in 2004, he told the Des Moines Register that he kept a toe amputated from his right foot after becoming stranded overnight in 2002 on a snowmobile in the Wyoming wilderness.
The temperature-controlled symbol of sensibility and survival on a 25-below-zero night still lingers as he charges toward a possible bid to this summer's London Olympics.
"Yeah, it's still in the fridge back home," Gardner, who's at the U.S. Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colo., told the Register this week in reference to his home in Logan, Utah.
"It's a gentle reminder of my stupidity. It reminds me of the decisions I make. My original goal was to bury it with one of my dogs."
And to clarify: It's in the fridge, rather than the freezer?
"Yep — the fridge," he said. "It was already frozen once, so it doesn't need frozen again. This just keep the reminder cold."

Toccata & Fugue in d minor
"Bad Moon Rising"
Welcome to Autumn and the start of the "Holiday Season." From Columbus Day (Columbus, a combination of Wrong Way Corrigan and Typhoid Mary) to Halloween, October is a fitting start to the season. The weather is starting to cool (less so than in the past, to be sure), the leaves are falling and creating treacherous conditions on roadways around the Northern Hemisphere and people are beginning to stress about what they can afford to buy for the people they barely know at their office parties.
All I can say is "Cheers!" Time to put the hot apple cider out and spice it up (or spike it with rum, if you prefer).
1} 1 gal. Apple Cider
2} 1 Orange, sliced
3} 2 Cinnamon Sticks
4} 2 tsp Whole Cloves
5} 1/4 tsp Ground Nutmeg
6} 1/2 tsp Ground Cinnamon
Mix all ingredients together in big pot. Bring pot to a boil and then reduce heat to a simmer, stirring occasionally. Let simmer for at least 20 minutes. While that is brewing - wrap hemp around a mason jar and secure with hot glue. Once everything is ready - serve and enjoy!

Vaginal Discharge (cont.)
What is the treatment for vaginal discharge?
Treatment for vaginal discharge is dependent upon the exact cause. Treatment goals include both symptom relief and eradication of the infection.
What over-the-counter (OTC) medications or home remedies treat vaginal discharge?
Yeast infections may be treated using over-the-counter medications, but other causes of vaginal discharge require prescription medications. It is critical to take the entire course of medication as prescribed or recommended by your doctor, even if the symptoms improve. If you are uncertain as to the cause of your vaginal discharge, it is important to visit a health-care professional to determine the cause rather than starting OTC medications if you are unsure.
Some alternative medical approaches recommend douching for the treatment of some causes of vaginal discharge. However, douching is not recommended by most physicians. The body has a natural way of cleansing the vaginal canal by itself, and douching can disturb the normal environment of the vagina, potentially leading to inflammation and even worsening of the symptoms. The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and most doctors recommend that women avoid douching unless specifically prescribed by a doctor.

China Logistics Group Pursues Strategic Acquisition Candidates
Mar 05, 2014, 08:30 ET from China Logistics Group, Inc.
SHANGHAI, China, March 5, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
China Logistics Group, Inc. (OTCQB: CHLO), an international freight forwarder and logistics management company, announced today that the company sees opportunity for expansion through potential acquisition or merger in fiscal 2014.
For the past several years the logistics and freight forwarding industry in China has suffered from a sustained weakness in global demand largely due to a prolonged recession in the European Union and a significant slowdown in China's domestic economy. During this time China Logistics Group began several initiatives for growth including diversifying its client base through expansion into new markets and broadening the scope of its services with the addition of limited domestic trucking services.
While China Logistics Group believes its growth initiatives coupled with economic improvements in certain key markets will place the Company on a sustainable growth track, it also sees the potential to further accelerate that growth through strategic acquisition to reach greater economies of scale. As a result management has begun to evaluate several potential acquisition opportunities and is in early stage due diligence with at least one potential acquisition candidate. The Company intends to aggressively pursue these opportunities and is hopeful that at least one strategic acquisition will take place in the current fiscal year.
Danny Chen, Chairman and CEO of China Logistics Group, commented, "We believe the logistics market will gradually recover as the world economy improves making this the perfect time to look for new opportunities to give us an advantage in this competitive market. We believe that the right strategic acquisition or merger will substantially accelerate growth in our business and set the stage for rapid expansion should markets improve substantially in the coming years."
About China Logistics Group, Inc.
China Logistics Group, Inc. is a U.S. company doing business in China through its subsidiary Shandong Jiajia International Freight & Forwarding Co., Ltd. (Shandong Jiajia). Established in 1999; Shandong Jiajia is an international freight forwarder and logistics manager located in China. Shandong Jiajia acts as an agent for international freight and shipping companies.

A new take on country in a black knit top with colorful ribbon ties paired with a fanciful cardigan, both by Betsey Johnson for Alley Cat.
Every spring and summer I fantasize about taking a proper country vacation—renting out a farmhouse somewhere and spending days rambling through fields and forests. While it is one of my eventual goals to split my time between NYC and a rural idyll, I try to sometimes channel the country life through my dress. This 1970 editorial from Mademoiselle—done by Arthur Elgort very early in his career—includes some of the best late 60s/early 70s versions of the countrygirl trend. These are most fancifully evoked in the designs of Betsey Johnson for her just-launched Alley Cat line (she left Paraphernalia early that year due to a lack of creative control). I used to have the dress version of her purpley-pink plaid dress, but I sold it due to a poor fit—I regret it now having seen it here!
Photos by Arthur Elgort for Mademoiselle, December 1970.

Maximum Health FSA Salary Reductions in 2013
As a result of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 (PPACA), health flexible spending account (FSA) salary reductions are being limited to $2,500 for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Until recently, the term "taxable year" had yet to be defined. However, the IRS released Notice 2012-40, which clarifies the term and provides guidance on the effective date of the statutory limit, the deadline for plan amendments, and relief for contributions that mistakenly exceed the maximum limit. In addition, the Notice requests comments on the modification of the use-it-or-lose-it rule as it applies to health FSAs.
Taxable Year Definition
A taxable year in Internal Revenue Code Section 125(i) refers to the plan year of the cafeteria plan. The elected health FSA salary reductions apply for this period.
Compliance with the $2,500 Salary Reduction Limit
The $2,500 limit on health FSA salary reduction contributions applies on a plan year basis, and the new statutory limit does not apply for plan years that begin before January 1, 2013. The Notice provides the clarification needed for FSA plans that do not follow a calendar year, and such plans do not need to adopt the maximum limit until the beginning of their 2013 plan year. Plans with a short plan year that begins after December 31, 2012 must prorate the $2,500 limit based on the number of months in the short plan year.
Cafeteria Plan Amendments
Employers offering health FSA plans must take action and adopt the required cafeteria plan amendments to reflect the $2,500 limit. Typically, cafeteria plan amendments can only be made on a prospective basis; however, this new plan amendment deadline is December 31, 2014, and the amendment may be retroactive only if the FSA plan adopts and operates in accordance with the statutory requirements for plan years beginning after December 31, 2012.
Health FSA Plans with a Grace Period
For health FSAs with plan years beginning in 2012, unused salary reduction contributions to a health FSA plan may be carried over into the two-month and 15-day grace period for that plan year. The funds carried over into the grace period for the 2012 plan year will not count against the $2,500 limit for the 2013 plan year.
Relief for Contribution Mistakes
For certain salary reduction contributions that exceed the $2,500 limit, relief is available if due to a reasonable mistake and not intentional neglect. If applicable, the employer (or the employer's agent) must address and correct the mistake. Additional guidance is available in the Notice.
Exceptions to the Capped Maximum
The statutory $2,500 limit only applies to salary reduction contributions under a health FSA and does not apply to certain employer non-elective contributions (sometimes referred to as "flex credits"). The provision does not apply to contributions made to other types of FSAs (i.e., dependent care FSA), health savings accounts (HSAs), or health reimbursement arrangements (HRAs). In addition, salary reduction contributions to cafeteria plans that are used to pay for an employee's share of health coverage premiums (or the corresponding employee share under a self-insured employer-sponsored health plan) are not affected.
Use-it-or-lose-it Rule Comments
The Treasury Department and the IRS are considering modifications to the use-it-or-lose-it rule for health FSAs. Under this rule, unused health FSA funds are forfeited at the end of the plan year. A request for comments has been released to gather input regarding if the proposed regulations should be modified to provide additional flexibility for carried-over health FSA funds and how modification would interact with the $2,500 limit. Comments must be submitted to the IRS by August 17, 2012 and should include reference to Notice 2012-40.

The first thing you're going to have to accept is that every publication is going to need some manual tidy-up on the exported ePub. Quark 9 has only just been released, so I have no idea what the ePub output looks like, but I strongly suspect they will need fixing just as is required in InDesign - there are certain conventions that change between fixed and reflowable formats and I've yet to see any automatic conversion system that actually gets the css more than halfway right. InDesign has been doing ePub export since CS3 and still doesn't really have it right, so I don't know what Quark's first attempt will look like.
Avoid fixed-layout like the plague. It involves a lot of work that only benefits one platform, and there's no guarantee it won't break in unpredictable ways when Apple finally brings out the fabled hi-def iPad. CSS 2 is a bit limited, but it offers a reasonable set of tools to handle positioning. This will be more difficult on the Kindle, though.
As far as landscape vs portrait goes, it really depends on the design and how much it's going to be compromised by forcing it to flip. If the photos in your series are predominantly landscape, then the quality is going to suffer even more by forcing them to be displayed across the shortest dimension. None of the current readers compares to print when it comes to resolution, so you want to make the maximum use of the pixels on the screen. The Kindle and ADE-based ePub readers can switch to landscape easily.
I suppose one thing you'll also want to consider is whether you really want to stick with Quark and whether it's worth investing further in their platform, since there are ways available to transition to InDesign. But that's quite a big question that would need to involve the whole company.

TOP wedding venues across the county must have been "well jel" after the Orsett Hall got to host the engagement party of two stars from The Only Way Is Essex.
The hit reality TV show's most talked about couple, Mark Wright and Lauren Goodger, chose the four star hotel in Thurrock as the setting for their lavish engagement party on Thursday.
Mark Wright and best friend Arg were filmed arriving at the party on horseback, in scenes shown on ITV2 last night.
Mark's fiancee Lauren, who wore a white sequined dress, arrived in a white limousine shortly after.
The party was held in the venue's gold room, and there were about 80 guests, who filmed at the hotel from 10am on Thursday.
Sarah Vaughan, a manager at the Orsett Hall Hotel, said: "It was fantastic to have the TV show filmed there, we got to meet the cast, and they were all really nice and down to earth.
"We only had a week's notice for the party.
"We actually called the production team about another event, and they asked if we would be willing to host the engagement party."
Sarah said the venue was hoping to host the couple's wedding as well.
She said: "I would like to think we would get the wedding as I think we have built up a good relationship with everybody.
"I think the hotel was shown in a really good way, and you may get to see more of it on Wednesday's episode."
Speaking about claims that Mark and Lauren's relationship is staged for the cameras, Sarah added: "I don't think so, they seemed genuine."
Thurrock got more air time on Saturday night as Grays-born comic and actor Russell Brand appeared on Piers Morgan's Life Stories.
The star talked about his childhood in Grays, and his "oscillating" popularity as a pupil at The Grays School.

Fanny Marguerite Judith Ardant is a French actress. She has appeared in more than fifty motion pictures.
Ardant was born in Saumur, Maine-et-Loire, France to a military attaché father. She grew up in Monaco until age 17 when she moved to Aix-en-Provence to study at the Institut d'études politiques d'Aix-en-Provence. In her early twenties her interest turned to acting and in 1974 she made her first appearance on stage.
By the early 1980s she was a major motion picture star, gaining international recognition for her role opposite Gérard Depardieu in La Femme d'à côté (The Woman Next Door). The film, directed by François Truffaut, brought Ardant her first Cesar Award nomination for best actress in 1982 and in 1984 she was nominated again for Vivement dimanche! Eventually she became Truffaut's companion, giving birth to their daughter, Joséphine Truffaut, on 28 September 1983. Initially, her youthful beauty brought popularity but over time her sophistication and acting skills have made her one of France's most admired actresses. She proved her versatility, playing a comedic role in Pédale douce for which she won the 1997 Cesar Award for Best Actress.
Fluent in English and Italian, Ardant has starred in several Hollywood and British films. Her most recent English-language film was the Franco Zeffirelli production Callas Forever, in which she portrayed opera diva Maria Callas. It opened the 14th Annual Palm Springs International Film Festival on 9 January 2003. In 2003, Ardant received the Stanislavsky Award at the Moscow International Film Festival (for the outstanding achievement in the career of acting and devotion to the principles of Stanislavsky's school).
Admiration for Red Brigades
She once expressed admiration for these veterans of Red Brigades (Brigate Rosse) residing in France. She said that it was good of them to remain to their principles. She later discovered that it would be difficult to attend a film festival in Venice, as her declaration had created much scandal in Italy. The Governour of Veneto said that he would prefer Ardent not to visit his Region. She then pleaded for forgiveness from victims of terrorism.

This is a guest post by Rev Julian Mann
There is a moral issue facing Britain that should be of major concern to voters, and it is not gay marriage.
As a passionate opponent of the redefinition of the God-created institution of heterosexual marriage, I can understand the principled passion of those who, like the Chancellor George Osborne, support it ardently for reasons of fairness and equality. Mr Osborne also believes, according to his analysis of President Obama's election victory, that gay marriage is a vote winner, particularly among young people, and I would have to concede that he is probably right.
But gay marriage, important an issue though it is, at this juncture pales into insignificance compared with the legal shambles over Abu Qatada.
It is a travesty of justice that he cannot face trial in an overseas nation that had reasonable grounds to charge him with plotting a terrorist atrocity against its people. The responsibility for this disgrace lies with the European Court of Human Rights. That is why Britain's relationship with Strasbourg must now become a matter not of hand-wringing but of robust political action.
I will not conceal the Christian spiritual agenda bound up with my concern about the threat to social stability that Islamist terrorism represents in the country I love. Because Christianity spreads by persuasion not by coercion peaceable social conditions are vital for its dissemination. It is wonderful that social conditions in the United Kingdom currently allow for the proclamation of God's love in Jesus Christ. The privilege of living in a democracy also allows Christians to articulate views on a range of social and political issues for the public good, though it should be acknowledged that the threat to free speech once gay marriage is enacted, particularly for public sector employees such as military chaplains, is a very real one.
With the potential for Islamist terrorism now deeply entrenched in British society, our government has both a symbolic and practical moral responsiblity to deport Abu Qatada to Jordan in defiance of Strasbourg. It would not be difficult under the very public circumstances of this deportation for British monitors to ensure that he is not tortured in Jordan. But, as well as opposing the obtaining of evidence by torture, does not the British government also have a moral responsibility to assist the Jordanian authorities in getting as much information as they legitimately can out of Abu Qatada and to help wipe the smile off the face of evil?

BRITISH singer Leona Lewis fancies herself as a cougar! The Bleeding Love hitmaker, 25, admits she has a huge crush on 17-year-old Twilight star Taylor Lautner. "I was obsessed for a while," Leona tells Britain's InStyle magazine for its June issue. Leona also admits she has a thing for Gossip Girl actor Chace Crawford and the "very sexy" Justin Timberlake, who reportedly put off his 28th birthday celebrations to record their duet Don't Let Me Down until the early hours.

Justin Bieber Has a big Crush on Tina Fey ?!
– JUSTIN Bieber was "completely taken" with Tina Fey when he appeared on Saturday Night Live with the 30 Rock star. Backstage sources say the 16-year-old singer followed Tina around the set like a pet dog. "Justin has a serious case of puppy love," blabbed one insider. "He followed her around backstage like a pet Labrador. It was obvious to the cast and craw that Justin is completely taken with Tina. "Even though he is young enough to be Tina's son, she was astounded at his confidence and poise. Continue reading

Shelby Edson was sweating and breathing heavily when Pierce County deputies pulled over a truck he was riding in at 224th Street East and Meridian Avenue East in South Hill. Edson had been on the loose since being featured on "Washington's Most Wanted" last August. Det. Ed Troyer says, "He's run from police many times before."
This time, though, Edson had nowhere to go. He was trapped in the passenger seat because the driver had pulled over too closely to another vehicle. Still, that didn't stop Edson from trying to avoid arrest. With his face flushed, he gave deputies a fake name and birth date. Det. Troyer says, "A sharp-eyed deputy recognized him as Shelby Edson and knew he had been featured on 'Washington's Most Wanted' as the top fugitive for the Pierce County Auto Crimes Enforcement Task Force."
Once in cuffs, deputies say Edson apologized for lying about his name and said he knew he was wanted for several months. Deputies found a loaded 9mm semi-automatic handgun under his seat and booked him into the Pierce County Jail on his warrant for Theft of a Motor Vehicle and a new charge for Unlawful Possession of a Firearm in the 1st degree and for lying to the deputy.

I recently created a php5.ini file to run my PHP contact form on godaddy.com but when I added it, it broke WordPress. Now the godaddy techs say I need to make a full php5.ini file to run WordPress. I am not sure how to do this. I am currently on a Windows server running IIS7. Here is what is in my .ini file.
register_globals = offallow_url_fopen = off
expose_php = Offmax_input_time = 60variables_order = "EGPCS"extension_dir = ./upload_tmp_dir = /tmpprecision = 12SMTP = relay-hosting.secureserver.neturl_rewriter.tags = "a=href,area=href,frame=src,input=src,form=,fieldset="
Could someone please help me with what I need to add to run not only my contact form but WordPress. Just to let you know when I go to http://foxdenwebsolutions.com/blog I get an error –
Your PHP installation appears to be missing the MySQL extension which is required by WordPress.
I tried to do a upgrade to WP 2.9.2 but also get an error.
Here is what the tech said –
After looking into your account, and the issues that you are experiencing with connecting to your database using php, we have found that the php5.ini file that you have uploaded is causing these problems. By default, the php_mysql extension is available within your shared hosting environment. It is only when you add your own php5.ini to the account that you see the errors. Furthermore, you will need a full php5.ini with a IIS7 Hosting account. You should be able to find more information about full php.ini files online by using your favorite search engine.
Currently, In troubleshooting this issue, we have found that the extension needed for php connections with MySQL databases is not loaded with a custom php5.ini file. You will need to add the following extension to your php5.ini file so that MySQL connections with php are available:
Also, please note that you will need to load it from the server extensions directory, which will also need to be updated within your php5.ini file:
extension_dir = C:php5ext
As with any change to your php.ini file, you will need to recycle your application pool from within the IIS Settings of your Hosting Control Center before any modifications are updated.To Recycle the Application Poolon Windows Shared Hosting Accounts
Log in to your AccountManager.
In the My Products section, select Hosting.
Next to the hosting account you want to modify, click ManageAccount.
In the Content section of the Hosting ControlCenter, click the IIS Management icon.
Click Recycle App Pooland follow any prompts.
Once you have correct the issue with your php5.ini file, you should Rollback the Installation through the Hosting connections and reapply the update.Please contact us if you have any further issues.
Sorry this is so long but I do not know exactly how to do this. The contact form is in HTML and links to a php handler page.
I do have the option of switching to a Linux account, but I am afraid that if I do this my contact form will be broken as well. I know that most of you will tell me to get away from godaddy but I recently paid for a year of hosting and cannot afford to switch hosting companies at this time.
NM found the problem...they gave me the incorrect syntax for the extension_dir. I changed it to C:\php5\ext and it works now with the php5.ini file that I have currently. I also checked my contact form and it still works!
This is the only code I have in my .ini file running on Windows IIS7 at godaddy.com just in case someone else has the same problem.
register_globals = off
allow_url_fopen = off
expose_php = Off
max_input_time = 60
variables_order = "EGPCS"
extension_dir = C:\\php5\\ext
upload_tmp_dir = /tmp
precision = 12
SMTP = relay-hosting.secureserver.net
url_rewriter.tags = "a=href,area=href,frame=src,input=src,form=,fieldset="
hey im having the same problem but i have no idea what any of that means. do i just create a file called php5.ini, copy that code, and place the file in the root directory?
Useful, thanks for posting your iis 7.0 windows php5.ini file

This was a really good story and I'm glad to see it was finished. I'm happy read you have rehabilitated Bellatrix because we only met her after she'd been in Azkaban for all though years, which would drive a saint crazy! We knew nothing about her life before Voldemort or during the first war. We don't know what made her join the Death Eaters. After reading this story I am much more sympathetic towards Bellatrix.
Author's Response: Thanks so much. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I always like to hear that I've made someone more sympathtic to Bella. :D
It took me 2 days to completely read this story, but I did it. I love it. And I'm not just saying that, I do admit that the story was a bit long but that was the good part, it kept the suspense going. The part that was most enjoyble was when I pictured Luna, The Luna Lovegood/Longbottom, screaming at everyone. Hopefully you will write some more stories, e-mail me at email@example.com
Author's Response: Thanks for the review. I'm glad you enjoyed the story.
Ooops, sorry, I thought you were talking about Lucius. :o
Author's Response: Hehe, nope, not Lucius.
Typo alert! It should be Lucius, not Lucus. Great job, Elle!
Author's Response: Thank you!
This story was the first Harry Potter fan fiction story I ever read and hooked me right away. I loved the story but I still think it is really weird to think of Bellatrix as anything but evil. I hope you keep writing!!!
Author's Response: Thanks for the review! :D
This has to be one of the most original and well-written fan-fic novels I've ever seen. The idea of Harry torturing someone -- and Neville teaching his son to hate -- is almost unthinkable, but you pulled it off in a believable way. Loved the ending -- redemption all around! Thanks for sharing.
Author's Response: Thanks for the review. It means a lot. I'm glad you enjoyed the story.
Aw. What a sweet ending. I must admit, when I first started reading this fic I was not convinced - I still can't really see Harry actively torturing anyone, even Bellatrix. Still. By the end, it did all work and it did make sense. Let's just say you convinced me and I ended up really enjoying the hope in this fic. It's amazing how you show a different side to everyone, and how in the end, everyone is forgiven - believably. This is really a magnificent fanfic, well-written and with such an original plot. I loved it! ... I don't suppose there's a sequel? ;)
Author's Response: Thanks so much. You're review is lovely. *hugs* I'm glad you ended up enjoying it. ;)
As for a sequal, maybe some day. But I have some other projects going at the moment. However, I would really like to write about Cassie again, so maybe in the future.
Thanks again for the review!
its over!!!!!!!!!!
but i dont want it to be over!
okay right there, thats sayian something. This is a story about one of my LEAST fav. characters of all time (though i think she has dropped lower than Lucius. Being only higher than umby. and here i am begging for more!
*dies again*
im gonna miss it soooooooooo much! i love it and you Elle!
Author's Response: Thanks so much! I'm glad you enjoyed the story and someday I will get you to warm up to Bella. I really will.
i really like the ending of the story
and overall its great to see bellatrix portrayed as a real person, rather than an insane murderer
Author's Response: Thank you!
aw yay! this was really great! i told my friend to read it too... are you going to do a second one? like one about cassie and frank and lucius?? thaat would be cool too.... but whatever you are the author!!! :D :D
Author's Response: I'm not sure if there will be a sequal to this. I have an idea, but it may never be written.
Anyway, thank you for the review and I am glad you enjoyed the story.
Okay, I have started the past two reviews with 'aww' and was determined not to do so again, but -- but -- AWW!! ^.^ I'm amazed that you could start with such a miserable setting for all these characters and make it into such a nice one, without causing the story to be unbelievable.
My favorite part of this chapter was definitely Bellatrix's dance with Harry. It was just so perfect, and great. These two people have both done horrid things to each other, and yet are both able to move beyond their past and -- though they won't forget -- they'll forgive. And that's just such an amazing and wonderful thing.
Definitely one of the better fan-fics I've read in a long time, and it's really a darn shame you can't be nominated for a QSQ. :D *applauds* Greatgreatgreat job, Elle.
Author's Response: Well, happy endings aren't really my specialty. Normally, my characters are worse off at the end, but I really felt they deserved to happy in this one. I couldn't bear to torture them anymore.
I enjoyed writing the dance, actually. It was a little weird to throw them together after all that has happened, but it had to be done. Their lives were going to collide regardless. And I really think at this point, they would be able to forgive. For once, my characters learned something. I'm so proud of them. *hugs Bella and Harry*
And thanks so much for another lovely review. Also, thanks for sticking with this story all the way to the end, reviewing all the way. It really means a lot. *hugs Anna*
Aww, Harry really did come around. I'm glad we finally got a chapter from his PoV, it shows that he really does feel genuine regret and such. I am wondering if much of this was Hermione's influence, or if it had been building for a while. But either way (or a combination of both ways), I'm pleased he did. :)
Author's Response: *smiles* Yes, Harry really did come around. He struggled, but he finally let the better part of himself come through. And it was building all along, but without Hermione and all the events in the story, he may have never come to this conclusion.
Thanks for another lovely review.
Aww. It's nice that Severus is so happy and in love, and the proposal was just . . . really cute. :D
(but I still say she's too evil for him :P)
Author's Response: Hey! Don't call Bella evil. *cries* *hugs Bella* She's really sensitive you know. :P
I would also like to point out that Sevy's slate isn't exactly clean either...
Anyway, now that I have defended Bella. Thanks so much for the review. *hugs Anna*
Yay, Sevy has a chance at freedom too! *dances* :D
/a rather pointless review as Anna scurries off to the next chapter
Author's Response: Well, it really wouldn't have been very nice of me to leave him as a slave.
Thanks for the review. *hugs Anna*
Aww! This was a perfect ending to a fantastic story! But, I'm sure there is going to be more, right? *hint, hint*
If not, maybe, just an epilogue? That could work. I honestly don't know if this is the end or not but either way, this was a very special and magnificent chapter! Everyone was forgiven, and even though I strongly discourage Harry/Hermione, witrh Ron and Ginny gone, it couldn't hurt, in this one case, so I approve.
Author's Response: Thanks so much. I'm glad you enjoyed the story.
I honestly don't know if this is the end either. It's the end for now because I have a rather pressing project to work on. However, there is always a chance that there may be a sequal. I really hate the idea of never writing about Cassie again...
I can't believe it's over. A good story and a happy ending. I liked the part with Harry and Bella. It was good to see them move on and forgive each other. Great work!
Author's Response: Thanks so much. I can't believe it's over either. *sniffs*
Wups I feel bad... I've forgotten to review the past few chapters... :P
Aww that was a sweet ending! That was touching when Bellatrix passed on what she had learnt to Harry - to be able to forgive yourself, and the past. It showed that she has truly changed.
I really enjoyed reading this story! Hope you write more in the future. xx
Author's Response: Thanks so much. I was really rather sad so see it end. I'm glad you enjoyed reading it.
Oh, wouldn't that be fun-Severus working for Harry...can't wait to see what happens next.
Author's Response: *smiles* Only one more chapter to go!
Cool! A wedding! I'm looking forward to that !!
Author's Response: *smiles* Yep, you get to see the wedding. :D

Linda and Mick Petty took a short trip to Fredericksburg last week. The first night they stayed with Ken and Suzi Chapman in Belton and enjoyed dinner, a great visit, then a great breakfast. From there they went to Austin and had lunch with Chris and Robin Petty and saw their beautiful new home. Then on to Fredericksburg for
some sightseeing and a hamburger at the Alamo Street Cafe. On the way home, they stopped to visit an old friend, Delores Penny, whom they had not seen for about 30 years. Linda says, "Nice road trip but always glad to return to Tira." On Sunday afternoon Mick and Rick met Ken in Arlington and went to the Rangers game. It was a beautiful day for baseball and the Rangers won.
Daylee Fite's team, "The Horns," played their sixth softball game this week. Mike and Valaree Fite and Sandra Wester were there to see her play. On Friday night, Kathy Day attended the winning game along with Sandra. So far they are undefeated. Sherry Smiddy returned from another week in Chicago. They had horrible storms and flooding and on the last day it was snowing. Sherry comments, "The weather there is as unpredictable as Texas weather!"
Pre-registration for prekindergarten and kindergarten is going on at North Hopkins school. Please bring the necessary information to complete registration: a copy of an official birth certificate, up-to-date immunization record, social security card, copy of driver's license (of the person enrolling the student) or identification card and proof of residency (utility bill or tax statement). Presently enrolled students do not need to re-enroll. Eligibility: pre-k child must be 4 on or before Sept. 1; kindergarten child must be 5 on or before Sept. 1. During "Round-up Days" on June 6 and 7, parents and students are invited to visit the pre-k and kindergarten classrooms and teachers anytime between 8:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m.
The North Hopkins baseball team is scheduled to compete against Roxton at home on April 26 at 4:30 p.m.
North Hopkins School will be having a community meeting on Thursday, May 2, at 6:30 p.m. Watch for details next week.
I guess not much is happening in Tira. I hope to have more to report next week. Let's all remember to keep the people of Boston and West in our thoughts and prayers.

The St. Francis Xavier University board of directors has recommended the removal of the bishop of the Diocese of Antigonish as ex officio chancellor of the university.
A decision of this magnitude must be well understood to be the result of wide discussion by laity, alumni, clergy and other friends of St. FX; hence the necessity of bringing this into the light for thorough deliberation.
The 160-year tradition of the bishop as the university's chancellor should be respected and retained, but since it is threatened, it is worth looking back on what Catholics have gone through in their pursuit of education.
The university system itself was created by the church, when it founded the first university in the year 1175, with its harmonious vision of education (faith and reason).
The Diocese of Antigonish brought this vision of the whole person (body, mind and spirit) in its creation of St. FX. We must remember our past, for St. FX was founded after the intolerant anti-Catholic statutes known as the penal laws were relaxed.
As the penal laws came to the colonies, Catholics could not reside within 10 miles of the capital, nor keep arms. They could not practise any professions of the law or serve in the military, nor could they vote or inherit or purchase land without denying their religion.
The Nova Scotia legislative assembly passed an act concerning schools on June 28, 1766. It outlawed "papists" or people professing the "popish" (Catholic) religion from setting up any school within the province. All teachers were required to take oaths against the pope and Eucharist.
The hearing or saying of mass was punishable. The first offence led to the confiscation of the offender's goods, the second offence resulted in banishment, and the third offence was punishable by death. The law prescribed imprisonment for life for all Catholic priests.
If not for our First Nations sisters and brothers in the faith, the presence of a priest in Nova Scotia would have been lost.
On Dec. 3, 1766 (Feast of St. Francis Xavier), Nova Scotia Lt.-Gov. Michael Franklin informed the Lords of Trade in England that the Mi'kmaq were determined to have Catholic priests whether the government permitted it or not. Out of fear, the authorities eventually allowed one priest to enter Nova Scotia to minister to the Mi'kmaq and Acadians, but Scots and Irish were still banned.
The brutal penal laws were eventually lifted in 1823, and the following year, Rev. William MacLeod — the pioneer of higher education in the Diocese of Antigonish — wrote a letter to Bishop Joseph-Octave Plessis with the idea of starting a school. The letter dated June 21, 1824 expressed difficulties in acquiring means and a facility, but ended with these words: "I have God's glory in view, and God, in his own good time, will help me in my plans."
The school went ahead in Grand Narrows, Cape Breton, with nine students.
Then a school known as "The College" was opened in East Bay; it was a minor seminary and the first institution in the present Diocese of Antigonish. In 1828, three of its students went on to study for the priesthood. One student was Colin Francis MacKinnon, who became the second bishop of what is now the Diocese of Antigonish.
MacKinnon expanded MacLeod's educational plan by establishing the St. Andrew's Grammar School, and later the Diocesan College in Arichat, which became St. Francis Xavier University.
Money was scarce in those days, and people often paid their way in potatoes. Many people with little money co-operated, sacrificed and worked together to build St. FX.
Let us not forget our story.
Today there is a greater reliance on big players and government funding, but with cuts to university funding, a decreasing pool of students, technological advancements and new models of online learning, some universities will not survive future challenges.
Niche marketing allows your brand to stand out. With 35 per cent of Canadians identifying as Catholic, according to the 2011 census, one would think St. FX would celebrate its Catholic diversity to stay alive. Instead, the university appears to be diluting its unique brand and greatest asset.
Some believe the Catholic identity is already gone and St. FX is merely living off the fumes of the past, but removing Bishop Brian Dunn as chancellor will make it official.
In justice, Catholic high schools across Canada would need to be notified that St. FX is no longer directly associated with the Roman Catholic Church.
Any attempt to placate the church with a new title for our bishop is a delusion of any genuine association. If the board of governors chooses to disenfranchise the Catholic community, remember Galatians 6:7: "Whatever one sows, they will also reap."
The university motto remains: "Whatsoever things are true." However Philippians 4:8 was removed from its public logo in the late 1990s. If the motto still applies today, then will the voice of the people be heard before it is too late?
