Today, my 12-year-old son played QWOP on my laptop. Half an hour later, he virtually destroyed it in a fit of rage. FML
Today, I foolishly thought that I was alone in the house, and let out a huge fart on the toilet. This went on for a while due to an upset stomach. I later walked into the living room only to find my parents and a few of their friends sitting on the couch, teary-eyed from laughing so much. FML
Today, just like every morning this month, I woke up, put on my clothes, looked out my window, and was pointed at by a man in a ninja outfit on my neighbor's roof. The police still can't find him. FML
Today, I'm at work on a construction site for a high rise building, on the 12th floor today. I've developed a severe case of the runs, causing me to need to rush to the nearest toilet periodically. Luckily for me it's conveniently located on the ground floor. FML

Marking the group's first time to perform at the annual event, Adam Levine and Co. will perform the new single from their upcoming album 'V'.
Maroon 5 is the latest addition to the line-up of performers for the upcoming 2014 MTV Video Music Awards. MTV announced on Wednesday, August 6 that the band, which will take the stage of the awards show for the first time, would perform a song from their upcoming fifth album "V".
The group confirmed the news in a message posted on their Facebook page. "We are so excited about our upcoming new album and to be part of the great VMA lineup this year. It is our first time doing the show and we are thrilled to be on it performing our new single," they said.
Although Maroon 5 has never performed at the VMAs before, the band has won some Moonman trophies in the past. They took home Best New Artist and Best Group Video in 2004, Best Group in 2007 and Best Pop Video for "Payphone" in 2007.
Maroon 5's excitement to perform at the VMAs came three years after frontman Adam Levine blasted the show on Twitter. "The VMA's. one day a year when MTV pretends to still care about music. I'm drawing a line in the sand. F**k you VMA's," the coach of "The Voice" wrote back in 2011.
"It's public knowledge that it's not a music channel," he said further in an interview with E! News. "It's become a huge promotional opportunity for artists, which is a good thing. I think that great artists were there and they were represented and there could have been more."
This year's MTV Video Music Awards will air live on MTV on August 24 at 09:00 P.M. from The Forum in Inglewood, California. Other performers include Usher, Ariana Grande, 5 Seconds of Summer and Taylor Swift.

location / calm
The facilities were of a very good standard, and the food was also very good There was very little parking available
Nice location, nice spa. Small insects in the bath room
Dinner in restaurant was excellent Location in valley very dark and as residents one had to pay to use the pool also very quiet
Above all else - the tranquility and beauty of the place.
We only stayed one night but the service was excellent, the staff very polite and helpfull and the food was excellent. The room was ideal and very comfortable and the bath ideal after a very tiring day
the 1692 restaurant had was of a low standard of service and the food was of poor quality
Everything - quiet location, peaceful setting...we were upgraded to a suite ( at no extra cost), on arrival - it was superb! Availability of Spa treatments - some were booked out or unavailable.
good no room service
Lovely surroundings and a good wiev from the room Coffee from machine at breakfast. Suggestion: buy a Nespresso Machine
Nice welcome, hotel manager speaks many languages and is very nice with clients. The place is amazing, and the swimming pool is delightful. Rooms are clean, quiet large, and with a rather big balcony with view on the valley/swimming pool
Beautiful surroundings, peace, very helpful management
Excellent view, relaxing atmosphere, comfort No
Very nice hotel tucked away in the Monchique Montains. It's a beautifully designed hotel with spacious rooms and an excellent service. Certainly recommended for people who like modern architecture. The views from the balcony or stunning. Highly recommended for the price.
the views are wonderfull
The food at the restaurant and the friendly staff. Large clean bathroom. View. The pool could have had more sun loungers for guests.
The view is absolutely astonishing and the location is brilliant. Mountain in a very short reach to the sea, can easily benefit of both. It fits both summer and winter trip with quite some nice details and a cozy environment. The owner was especially attentive creating a good mood and allowing a better experience throughout all the stay. Option of a double bed (not twin) is missing in such a romantic inn the option should be available.
The view, value. Very basic, no TV in the room.
Staff were very nice, helpful & friendly, the Room was big and clean but the breakfast was for Germans....we dont eat cheese or ham that early and there were no cereals or fruit, the Bar was never open and the restaurant was never open only the one owned by the Hotel across the road which good and reasonable.....Pool was fine but all of the patio/poolside furniture was "tired" to put it mildly.....we enjoyed our stay and would probably go again but this Hotel whilst having imense potential needs some thoughtful investment. PJ & M B. Patio / Poolside furniture was older than me !
Though being pretty far away from civilization (40km seem like 120km in those roads), the location is pretty spectacular, and the view from the room is amazing. The rooms are spacious and clean, and breakfast is above average in the area.
Superb locale and orientation with a southward view over the coast, the cities of Portimnão and Lagos, the estuary of the Arade and the Ria de Alvor. Cozy atmosphere of the common spaces. Quality well under what is expected from a 4 star Inn. Poor hygiene on room and toilet. Air conditioning unable to heat up the room, telephone did not work. No tv or mini bar in the room. No hot water in the shower in the morning (unacceptable!). Satellite tv reception in the common room recently disconnected. You can clearly see this inn has entered a decayment cycle and needs urgent renovation.
The hotel was located in a very quiet area and quiet close to a selection of restraurants. Parking spaces were limited and this could cause a problem at busy times. There was no food available on the evenings which was a bit inconvenient if you arrived in the evening.
Location, size and layout of room, attention of staff Poor quality breakfasts compared to other similar hotels, limited choice in evening menu. Saved by several good local restaurants. Car essential.
I actually liked the slightly tired building, not too overpowering and easy to relax in.The staff were friendly and very helpful. The views and environs were stunning, and the restaurant only 500m away was briliiant. The pool was great [if you skim it first]. The outside furniture needs to be renewed, including pool furniture.
Dont expect a classic 4 stars hotel. But if you are in the area certainly a good choice and good value. Its a quite place with nice view of the valley from every room and a swimming pool on the roof ok to relax a bit. Above all the owner is a great character, very busy (sometime looks frustrated how busy he is!) and very friendly. He also runs the restaurant opposit to the hotel that gets packed up over lunch time. The entire place is on sale for 2M. I am sure the owner will make that point!
the view of silves from our window was outstanding. breakfast in the morning was one of the best we had on the trip. staff was polite but not particularly friendly
Convenient to the area for exploring
Situation very good, views lovely Staff OK but not over attentive. Lacking atmosphere as almost empty. Some things about the rooms were tired to say the least.
Exploring the Local Town of Silves and easy access to the coast
The staff are all very welcoming............
Hotel position, staff, room. Evening meal was the worse we have ever had in Portugal. Metal chairs scraping on floor in breakfast room starting 6:45 am. The buffet breakfast was poor, no toast, cooked food, eggs. The fruit was tinned and the juice was a concentrate.
Our room had a big balcony with a nice view. The room and bathroom were clean. The breakfast was good. Some of the staff were a bit grumpy though not unfriendly. The coffee at the breakfast buffet was horrible. The room was a bit run down, and two lights (out of four) did not work.
The location (in Silves) was excellent for getting about the Algarve, and the hotel itself was very pleasant and well kept. Lovely decor, and good sized room with a balcony overlooking the town. The buffet breakfast every day had a good range of food (including fresh fruit salad, sorry Morag!), and the large circular swimming pool was great for cooling off! Our room was described as a double but should have been labelled as twin. There were 2 single beds pushed together, and made up as 2 singles aswell!. Also, the location of the hotel on the site is wrong, it's actually in Silves, just over the main bridge from the town. We spent 2 hours driving around in the dark trying to find it, so I hope this prevents someone else experiencing that!
the view the breakfast has been the same for four years! There is no fresh fruit, and only processed cheese and cold meats. Also, the evening meals could be more interesting.
Good size rooms. Lovely views and helpful staff. Breakfast very limited choice
A wonderful and peaceful place, we enjoyed it very much. If you want to stay outside the touristic area it is perfect, very relaxing.
Locality near friends Coffee machine
rest be quiet
The location of the hotel is really great! Also, the free schedule of the swimming pool. The bed is quite awful and noisy. I could hear sounds from all around. Not worth the money...
Position Of Hotel. Comfortable rooms and wonderful views Breakfast
The staff. Could use new toilet seats.
Swimmingpool, free parking, good breakfast.
Overall very good value for money, a welcoming hotel in a non-touristic setting with spectaular view and a nice pool area.
Friendly staff, superb location no
Beautiful location for nature & mountain walks, accessible to west coast by car. Delicious breakfast, clean room & friendly helpful staff
The location is high up in the mountains, overlooking the tiny village of Nave Redonda. Beautiful location, stunning views, quiet and totally relaxing. The hotel itself is very small and intimate, the staff ensure you feel very welcome without being intrusive. And breakfast was lovely!
Very friendly and helpful owners. Nice and quiet rural place, close to the most beautiful Algarve beaches. Good breakfast, possibility to use the kitchen and barbecue. Lots of midges/mosquitos in the evening and sometimes a very rotten smell for a few hours, depending on the wind direction (presumably from the river). Weak A/C forcing to leave doors open overnight and let mosquitos in.
nice location in the countryside, nice place, nice rooms, nice staff
This was a very nice, very quiet, very relaxing hotel in a good location to explore the Algarve. The owners are very nice accommodating people and I would recommend this hotel to anyone (with a car) who is looking for an exceptional hotel for a relaxing few days. Great pool as well!
Silence and peace
The family atmosphere and the possibility to use the kitcen: like at home! The owners are very kind and the surrounding very beautyful: a good way to see pourtoguese nature.
The location is very peaceful and beautiful. We had a wonderful stay - it was only one night and we wished we could have stayed longer.
Being able to relax by the pool, then have a BBQ was great. When we were there it was full of families, so if you're after peace and quiet, this might not be for you.
The ;friendliness of the people who own the hotel was wonderful. They were most helpful in guiding us to the beach, Informing us of a most wonderful restaurant and answering questions. Our room was very attractive and comfortable and we especially enjoyed the large shower.
Being steel the bedroom doors are very noisy when people come and go late at night early in the morning.
Far the cities, calm surroundings, clean and well designed rooms, helpful and friendly staff, excellent breakfast. Soft bed, creaking roof during all nights, quads passing close to building.

2007.146: Migration and proliferation dichotomy in tumor cell invasion
2007.146: Sergei Fedotov and Alexander Lomin (2007) Migration and proliferation dichotomy in tumor cell invasion. Physical Review Letters, 98 (11). 118101/1-118101/4. ISSN 1079-7114

We propose a two-component reaction-transport model for the migration-proliferation dichotomy in the spreading of tumor cells. By using a continuous time random walk (CTRW), we formulate a system of the balance equations for the cancer cells of two phenotypes with random switching between cell proliferation and migration. The transport process is formulated in terms of the CTRW with an arbitrary waiting-time distribution law. Proliferation is modeled by a standard logistic growth. We apply hyperbolic scaling and Hamilton-Jacobi formalism to determine the overall rate of tumor cell invasion. In particular, we take into account both normal diffusion and anomalous transport (subdiffusion) in order to show that the standard diffusion approximation for migration leads to overestimation of the overall cancer spreading rate.

meliorism was our Word of the Day on 11/16/2014. Hear the podcast!
Theme music by Joshua Stamper ©2006 New Jerusalem Music/ASCAP
Did You Know?
In 1877, British novelist George Eliot believed she had coined meliorist when she wrote, "I don't know that I ever heard anybody use the word 'meliorist' except myself." Her contemporaries credited her with coining both meliorist and meliorism, and one of her letters contains the first documented use of meliorism, but there is evidence that meliorist had been around for 40 years or so before she started using it. Whoever coined it did so by drawing on the Latin melior, meaning "better." It is likely that the English coinages were also influenced by another melior descendant, meliorate, a synonym of ameliorate ("to make better") that was introduced to English in the mid-1500s.

The daughter of a Leyburn woman said she was disgusted to find out her mother had spent four hours on the floor of the Warwick Hospital emergency department, crippled in pain and covered in vomit.
The ill woman, who does not wish to have her name published, was taken to hospital on Friday night with excruciating stomach pains.
She said after the ambulance with her in it detoured to another patient, she finally arrived at the hospital to be ordered off the stretcher and into a plastic seat.
The pain from what was later diagnosed as kidney stones was such that sitting became impossible and the woman spent the next three to four hours sitting on the floor with her head resting in the seat.
Despite her apparent pain, the grandmother said she was not offered pain relief, a drink of water or a blanket.

The bugginess has persisted because the vendors know they can hide all the ugly problems in the BIOS. These problems lead to memory running slow, weird PCI bus problems, and other failures. Open source BIOSes reveal the ugly bugs. Possibly this will make the hardware vendors more responsible. We can certainly hope so. ron

- 2 1/4 cups orzo (15 ounces)
- 3 tablespoons pine nuts
- 1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 6 ounces shiitake mushrooms, stemmed, caps cut into 1-inch pieces
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 2 cups spinach leaves (1 1/2 ounces), cut into thin strips
- 2 celery ribs, cut into 1/4-inch dice
- 9 ounces feta cheese, crumbled (1 1/2 cups)
In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the orzo until al dente. Drain and transfer to a large bowl; let cool.
Meanwhile, in a medium skillet, toast the pine nuts over moderate heat, shaking the skillet, until the nuts are golden brown, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Add 2 tablespoons of the olive oil to the skillet. Add the shiitakes, season with salt and pepper and cook over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until tender and browned, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk the vinegar, lemon juice and the remaining 1/2 cup of olive oil; add to the orzo to loosen it up.
Add the spinach, celery, feta, pine nuts and mushrooms to the orzo and toss well. Season with salt and pepper. Serve at room temperature or lightly chilled.

Children in Georgia learn how to respond to natural disasters
TBILISI, Georgia, 3 November 2010 – Children in Georgian schools will soon be able to learn how to respond adequately to natural disasters thanks to the new partnership initiative launched by the Ministry of Education and Science of Georgia, the National Curriculum and Assessment Centre, Emergency Management Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, UNICEF and the European Commission Humanitarian Aid Department.
The Memorandum of Understanding about the new partnership has already been signed by Mr Dimitri Shashkin, Minister of Education and Science of Georgia, Ms Natia Jokhadze, Director of the National Curriculum and Assessment Centre, and Mr Roeland Monasch, UNICEF Representative in Georgia.
Within the framework of the initiative a special Technical Working Group will be established to review the existing national education and disaster preparedness policy and to initiate the process of mainstreaming disaster preparedness and risk reduction in formal education as well as in extra-curricular activities.
"Georgia is part of a highly disaster-prone region and natural disasters such as earthquakes, landslides, snow avalanches, and floods are potential threat to people", said Roeland Monasch, UNICEF Representative in Georgia. "The most vulnerable and affected by natural disasters are children. We hope that thanks to our partnership initiative children will be able to acquire basic skills on how to behave in emergencies and be adequately prepared." added Monasch.
Children and their caregivers, especially in conflict affected and disaster prone areas lack knowledge and related life-skills on disaster preparedness. Furthermore, existing educational and teacher training programmes in the country are in short of such information.
Within the framework of the current initiative the relevant curriculum will be developed, teachers will be trained and the curriculum will be introduced in eight pilot schools in disaster prone regions of Georgia, including Tbilisi. The project also envisages development of the relevant policy and legislation to further strengthen education on disaster preparedness and carrying out information campaigns for children on safety practices and disaster risks.

I'm hoping to stir the pot here and get a strong talk back going in the comments section below. The idea for this came to me while writing my review for Womb. Womb is a film that's getting a lot of love here at ScreenAnarchy and I'm certainly a strong supporter of the film and was dismayed by the amount of heckling that took place at the April 10th screening at Cinefest 2011. But I can also understand the reasoning behind many of the comments, apart from the homophobic, ignorant comments being made by some imbecilic frat boys. If it weren't for my own personal connection to the material, I probably would've hated the film as much as the people who sat around me. Art is subjective, DUH! I'm sure there are those out there that think Ghosts of Mars is John Carpenter's masterpiece. There are those out there that think Casshern is a masterpiece (heh).
There used to be a film festival here in Philadelphia called The Back Seat Film Festival. Touted as "the drinking man's festival," the organizers would spoon feed attendees free beer and vodka while encouraging audience interaction, both positive and negative. The opening ceremony consisted of strippers and porn stars destroying the screeners of films rejected from the festival with large sledge hammers. It was essentially the Gong Show of film festivals. If a film sucked and was heckled, the programmers had no problem stopping the film and moving on to the next. It was a raucous fun time, and it completely ruined me.
As an artist and fellow maker myself, I understand the importance of paying respect to someone who's spent a lot of time and hard work on making a film even if I don't like it. Yet, there are times when I feel insulted, even offended by someone who actually thinks that their terrible picture is worth a public audience's time.
Case in point, Tron Legacy. I loathed Tron 2. Apart from being completely stupid with no story or even a cohesive plot line, it was boring and lacked fun. I went in wanting to like it. I was hyped, particularly after reading Harry Knowles FAN-tastic review.
My best friend kept falling asleep during the screening and was audibly snoring. A few people made some snide remarks enabling me to feel more comfortable in joining in. Oh, peer pressure. As time went on, the majority of the audience turned on the film. This was a packed house of stoned, drunk hipster nerds growing anxious from the lack of action and suspense promised by the trailers. Random hysterical catcalls were being shouted by numerous attendees, and before I knew it, the entire screening became one huge shit show. The audience actually booed during the credits. And as much as I hated the film, making fun of it with a theater full of strangers became the most fun I had at the theaters in a long time. I also have a long standing tradition of seeking out bad Hollywood horror movies with a group of fellow filmmaker and writer friends with a bottle of Jack in tow with the singular intent of heckling the film. Doom might have been one of the worst films ever made, but I never laughed so hard in my life.
But when the audience spooled out into the lobby after Tron, I heard one young woman complaining to her boyfriend that she had honestly loved Tron Legacy and the audience completely ruined the experience for her. She was livid, and at 15 bucks a pop to see the damn thing in 3D, I understood her anger and felt guilty that I partook in the inappropriate behavior. Ironically, I normally just walk out of a film if I dislike it that much, but just like her, at $15 a ticket, I couldn't let myself walk out.
After reading Tim League's long response to inappropriate behavior at a recent screening of Rubber, it begs the question, "Is there a ever a time when it's OK to heckle a bad movie in a theater environment?
Share experiences of seeing a movie heckled that you enjoyed and vice versa.

Black Bureau - Poem by Pradip Chattopadhyay
Four horses' trots pierce the stillness of the night
They gallop on the wind in luminous moonlight
The carriage wheels seem to float up in the air
It's past midnight and not a soul is there!
The large white mansion in the depth of night lay
With none to warm its rooms had seen better day
When breeze along its driveway the four portly horse
They stop and emerge a man his face wearing remorse!
The shadow in soldier's uniform briskly walks into a hall
Through the cobwebbed dust resting long without footfall
With a dignified bearing reflecting his royal class
Moves about the rooms possessed by intense purpose!
He sifts through all the papers in a state of frantic mind
Pursuing an obsessive search seeking his precious find
Somewhere must be lying in dark corners out of sight
The black bureau and within its drawers cure for his plight!
This night of New Year's Eve shines bright the firmament
But the shadow grows pale pining for the prized document
For that only can salvage his pride light once more his face
Protect him from impeachment become his saving grace!
He flurries through the staircase reaches the upper floor
Needing to search all nooks behind windows and the door
For time for him is running out his glories are at stake
When moon goes down west arrives the daybreak!
In soldier's dress in red and white at the back the folded tail
He walks each room the long corridor leaves on dust no trail
The night turns dead stars go out still empty is his hand
He gets back home disappointed in the faraway distant land!

I would expect the maximum number of rules to be directly related to the
amount of RAM. Also i would expect, that 50k users is the number of possible
users - not concurrent users. If 20% of the users are online, this will
require approx. 10k rules. Iterating over these rules - say once every 5
minutes - in order to logout idle users should be possible on a standard
desktop PC with sufficient RAM.
The user/mac database must however be located on an external RADIUS server.

Need Appliance Repair Help? Ask a Technician for Answers ASAP
That is correct. I did clean the filter and put it back in. When I turned the unit on the humidity reading flashed 65% then immediately went back to '1' and won't allow me to raise it.
I will go down and look at that. I will use a mirror. I'm not sure what line I'm looking for, but will see what I can see. Back in a few minutes.
The 'tube is hard black plastic, short and 'L' shaped towards the back of the appliance. I tapped it and got a few drops of water off it but that was all. No way to look into it. Perhaps if I used something flexible (piece of rope, etc) and pushed it into the hole it might dislodge something?
I was able to feed in about 24" of plastic phone cord. I pulled it out and replaced the bucket. Turned the dehum. on with no change in the results.
Please let me know if you have additional questions or need clarification. There is no additional charge for any follow up help!
Please remember to leave positive feedback before you leave. If you have any other questions, please let me know! You may continue asking follow-up questions until you have all the information you need, even after rating my service. Thank you!
I am rating your service OK only because we were not able to correct the problem. I am hesitant to invest over $100 in the two parts you recommended for a 2 year old $178 dehumidifier! Thank you for your assistance.

Solutions for common sprayer leaks
If you find mysterious puddles under your kitchen sink, the most likely suspects are the water supply lines, the drain lines or the seal between the sink and the countertop. But don't forget about the pullout sprayer. Sprayer leaks can fool you because they usually occur only when the faucet is running. There are only two fixes: Either replace the spray head or both the spray head and the hose.
First, check the spray head for leaks. Turn on the faucet and pull out the spray head. Make sure the slide nut is tightly screwed into the spray head. Check for leaks, then push the trigger and check again. If water leaks out from under the slide nut, remove the spray head and slide nut. Turn on the faucet and look for leaks around the crimp sleeve. If you find leaks around the crimp, you'll have to replace the hose and the head. If the crimp doesn't leak, simply replace the head (Photo 1). Replacements are sold at home centers and hardware stores.
If the spray head doesn't leak, grab a flashlight, turn on the faucet and check under the sink. Give the hose a quick inspection, then examine the connection under the faucet. If you find a leak at the crimp, replace the hose. If the leak is coming from the stem connection, try to tighten it. You might be able to tighten it with a small pliers, but it's tight quarters under there. The best tool for this job is a basin wrench (sold at home centers and hardware stores). If tightening doesn't solve the problem, replace the hose (Photo 2).
Hoses usually aren't sold separately, so you'll get a new spray head, too. Some hoses have a female fitting that fits over the faucet stem. Others screw into the faucet stem. Many spray head/hose kits include an adapter so the hose can connect to male or female threads. Also pick up a roll of pipe-thread tape and wrap the male threads before you connect the new hose. You don't have to turn off the water supply to replace the hose, but make sure no one turns on the faucet while the hose is disconnected! Once the new hose is installed, turn on the faucet and check for leaks.
Most spray heads and hoses are interchangeable parts. But some spray heads and hoses connect differently. Home centers and hardware stores usually carry only the standard type shown here. If you have a different type, call a plumbing supplier (in the Yellow Pages under "Plumbing, Fixtures") or go to any online search engine and type in the manufacturer of your faucet followed by "replacement parts."
Fix an Erratic Sink Sprayer
Inside your faucet, there's a "diverter" valve, which stops the water flow to the spout and sends it to the sprayer when you press the spray head's trigger. Here are the symptoms of diverter trouble:
- Very little water, or none at all, comes out of the sprayer when you press the trigger. A bad sprayer head can cause this, but more often the diverter is the culprit. To check this, remove the spray head and turn on the faucet. If the water flow out of the hose is weak, the diverter is to blame.
- The sprayer pulsates like a machine gun.
- Water continues to flow out of the faucet spout when you're using the sprayer.
Often, a misbehaving diverter needs only light scrubbing with a toothbrush and a good rinse. But since removing a diverter usually requires major faucet disassembly, it's best to simply replace the diverter rather than risk taking it apart again.
Diverter styles and removal procedures differ widely. Some are small valves like the one shown here. Others are larger cylinders that don't look like valves at all. Some newer diverters aren't inside the faucet, but are instead connected to the sprayer hose below. So the first step in diverter repair is finding a diagram of your faucet. If you can't find your owner's manual, do an online search. Type in the manufacturer of your faucet followed by "faucet parts diagram." With a little searching, you'll find an illustration showing your faucet's internal parts. You'll also find several sources for replacement parts online. To find a local supplier, check theYellow Pages under "Plumbing, Fixtures" or search online.

in 2004, this event aims at reflecting on the changes and
continuities in the patterns of violence and human rights
abuses since the onset of the conflict. In specific, on this
upcoming Thursday an overview of both the dynamics of
insurgency violence in 2009 as well as human rights abuses
committed by the security forces under the special laws
during the last year will be presented. Panelists include

Part 1: The Mara Serengeti
I'm often asked to recommend the 3 best wildlife locations in August each year. Certainly in Tanzania the combination of the Northern Serengeti, Mahale and Katavi National Parks takes some beating. Especially over only 10 or 11 days out here. The drawback is the hours on small aircraft and of course the money spent for these plane transfers. If I go along to guide the extra costs for my flights and accommodation just adds more to the overall cost. So when I quote a price for such a trip I expect an initial – OMG!
But at some point in the first week of such a glorious safari I am convinced again that combining the best camps in the best locations, with a top guide is the only safari to recommend with any conviction. You see the guests always turn to me and say something along the lines of - 'Paul we were quite reluctant to commit to such a costly trip- but now we realize just how special it is to do it this way, we have and are and will learn so much more by having someone like you along, we love the accommodations, the food, the other camp guides and yes it is costly but we are so relieved that we are doing it this way'. And sometimes they add- ' if you would want to use us as a recommendation the next time you are designing such a trip, we would not hesitate to do so'.
So with high expectations after I had convinced this family of 10 to believe in the safari we met at KIA airport and spent our first night at the Arusha coffee lodge. Being so close to the Arusha airstrip from where our domestic flights start, this lodge is perfect. At 8 am the next morning we were off and flying directly to the Kogatende airstrip in Northern Serengeti. I enjoy watching faces as we descend over the Mara River to land. In August the whole mass of 2 million wildebeest are there, the elephant herds are all along the river bank and I smile as guests scream with joy.
' Look there's some hippos, WOW look at all those animals!' ' it's incredible!' And within 30 minutes of landing we were watching a large group of wildebeest crossing the Mara River.
I had booked the private wing at Sayari and we were royally spoilt- the food was some of the very best I've ever had on safari - truly- and as 6 of my guests were under 24 years of age they were delighted, as we older ones were too! Simon and his team were outstanding and two old friends acted as our driver/guides. Albert and Estomie had worked with me at Oliver's Camp, 'Esto' for nearly 13 years from 1992 – 2005 and Albert for many years during that period. What fun we had. The wildlife was incredible and the lions performed. As did the Mara River area- it was packed with wildlife.
What a start!.
Flying out to Mahale we were all high from such a wonderful first adventure, as Tanzania went past 10,000 feet below I explained the land use practices going on below us. It is really quite astounding to think that Tanzania had a population of less than 8 million people in 1961 and is now pushing 45 million.
Seen from the air like this, humanity seems like a spreading virus that is eating up natural habitats, advancing year by year into the wilderness. So it is always with some relief that when we take off at Tabora after a refueling stop, the wilderness below returns. These western lands of Tanzania (which are mainly hunting blocks) are one of Africa's last true wilderness areas. We flew just south of West and the extensive waterways of the Ugalla River systems had me transfixed, my nose up against the window. Mahale next and I love Mahale!

China Says it has "Mountains of Data" to Accuse U.S. of Cyber Attacks

Sender E-mail
(Source: washingtonpost.com)
However, China isn't blaming Washington for the attacks -- it's looking for better solutions to fight hacking between the U.S. and China
A Chinese security official said that he has proof of several U.S. cyber attacks launched against China, and that there needs to be a better way of
communicating these attacks
between the two.
Huang Chengqing, director of the National Computer Network Emergency Response Technical Team/Coordination Center of China (CNCERT), said that the U.S. uses the media to heighten cyber security concerns about hacks from China without discussing it with the country first.
"We have mountains of data, if we wanted to accuse the U.S., but it's not helpful in solving the problem," said Chengqing. "They advocated cases that they never let us know about. Some cases can be addressed if they had talked to us, why not let us know? It is not a constructive train of thought to solve problems."
Chengqing went on to say that CNCERT has been cooperating with the U.S. and promptly addressed 32 Internet security cases from the U.S. (most were taken care of, with the exception of a few that didn't have enough information).
Chengqing added that U.S.-launched cyber attacks are just as critical as those accused of coming from China. According to CNCERT, 4,062 U.S.-based computer servers attacked 2.91 million mainframe computers in China.
However, China isn't blaming Washington for the attacks. Instead, it's looking for better solutions to fight hacking between the U.S. and China.
U.S. President Barack Obama and Chinese President Xi Jinping are expected to meet in California this week, where cyber security is expected to be discussed. Obama plans to tell Jinping that the responsibility for any cyber attacks from China will be placed on Beijing's shoulders.
Back in March of this year, National Security Adviser Thomas Donilo warned that cyber attacks from China were
hurting relations between the two
, and that Obama wanted a better relationship with the country.
Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying said that China was willing to "have constructive dialogue and cooperation on this issue with the international community including the United States to maintain the security, openness and peace of the Internet."
"If you look at the last five years, if you look at what major innovations have occurred in computing technology, every single one of them came from AMD. Not a single innovation came from Intel." -- AMD CEO Hector Ruiz in 2007

Wikijunior:Summer Flowers of Northern New England/Oxalis stricta
From Wikibooks, open books for an open world
|Common Yellow Woodsorrel
(Oxalis stricta)
Common Yellow Woodsorrel is a plant commonly confused with clover. It has pretty little yellow flowers with five petals. The leaves grow in threes and are shaped like hearts. When the plant is young, the stems stand up and hold the leaves and flowers high. As the summer wears on though, the stems lay down and the plant creeps along on the ground. In the daytime, the leaves open wide to catch the sun, but at night, the plant folds them up. Do you put your things away at night? Do you?
