The Atlas of Creation was described as "The Book at War with the Theory of Evolution" in the report.
On 13 September, 2007, the Norwegian-language daily Vårt Land, printed in Oslo, punished a report titled "A Muslim Struggling against Darwin – A Turkish Publisher Is Distributing a Magnificent Book to Combat Darwinism." Written by Marianne Lystrup, the article provided the following information about the Atlas of Creation:
... Hundreds of copies of the giant-sized Atlas of Creation sent to Denmark have been received. Schools and universities in Europe and the USA have also received tens of thousands of copies this year. People at the University of Oslo have received them, too.
The Atlas of Creation is now in the [University of Oslo] Mathematics-Science Faculty library...They took it to the library and included it in the listings.
Experts and clergymen in our country have also received this special gift. The Norwegian Theology Faculty is another recipient of this kind gift.
The Atlas of Creation belongs to one Adnan Oktar, writing under the pen-name Harun Yahya who, according to The New York Times, has published a great many works such as books, videos and DVDs in order to struggle with the theory of evolution.
The book is approximately 800 pages long with an incalculable number of breathtaking coloured pictures of animals and fossils...
The publishers,Global Publishing, say they have printed many copies of the book, which is available in English, French, German, Italian and Russian...

Valentine's Day is right around the corner. Why not surprise the special someone in your life with chocolates that are shaped like a horrifying version of the one you love? That's what one cafe in Japan is trying and we can only hope it catches on in the States.
Here's how it works. You head to FabCafe, a restaurant in the Shibuya area of Tokyo, and get a scan of your face. The wizards in the kitchen then turn that scan into a box of chocolates that bear your likeness. Also, just to reiterate, the faces look like a somewhat horrifying version of yourself. How romantic!
A box of face chocolates will set you back around $68 and, of course, are available only in Japan. Until this technology flies across the pond, it looks like we'll be stuck with boring old Whitman's Sampler boxes.

Given the recent furore over the confusing privacy controls on Facebook, you would have thought that "Quit Facebook Day", scheduled for Monday May 31, would be proving more popular. So far fewer than 25,000 people have signed up to the site set up by two Canadian web developers, pledging to delete their accounts from the social networking site.
Given that Facebook has somewhere around 500m users, these disgruntled leavers represent a minuscule fraction - 0.00005 per cent - probably well within the normal levels of user churn. It seems, either Facebook's latest attempts to improve its privacy controls have reassured the general public, or the vast majority of users don't care enough about the issue to leave the site.

Statement by Robert Young, ICRC on the side-event Children and Armed Conflict
For United Nations webcast-TV see: http://bit.ly/lc8Dcp
(check against delivery)
Thank you Ambassador, and to the German mission for hosting this timely event.
Attacks on schools and hospitals strike at the heart of International Humanitarian Law. Sadly, such attacks are something the ICRC sees firsthand in our field operations worldwide. Such attacks can be grave breaches of IHL – war crimes. It is too rare that those responsible are held accountable. It is rarer still that their victims of unlawful attacks benefit from reparations.
These attacks put at risk the civilians, including the children, teacher, medical workers and patients, that the ICRC is mandated to protect in our capacity as a neutral independent impartial humanitarian actor. Such attacks also put our own personnel at risk, limiting our help to those in need of assistance and protection on the frontlines.
Here in New York, the ICRC, granted Permanent Observer status to the UN in 1990, of course carefully maintains its distance - and independence - from the political decisions of the Security Council. That said, as the guardian of IHL, the ICRC reminds the Council to ensure that its action & decisions are consistent in promoting greater understanding of IHL and respect for it.
For its part, the ICRC later this year is launching a major global project, Health Care in Danger, which touches on many of the challenges discussed today – more on that in coming months.
As requested, I'll briefly review the fundamentals for the protection of schools and hospitals under IHL.
Legal framework
IHL provides general protection and specific protection.
In terms of General protection there are 4 principles I would like to highlight
1. Distinction is a core principle of IHL, namely the distinction between protected persons/civilians and objects, on the one hand, and military objectives on the other.
o A civilian object is anything that is not a military objective
o A military objective is an object which can make an effective contribution to military action or one which offers definite military advantage by its destruction.
o Therefore, by nature, schools and hospitals typically are considered civilian objects and should not be attacked.
o Nor should civilians who are not taking active part in hostilities, which could include students, education personnel or medical personnel, or patients.
o However, when a school or hospitals is used for military purposes by one side or the other, they can lose their civilian character - when they do they can be attacked.
o In the field, the ICRC sometimes reminds parties to conflict that their use of a school both hampers access of children to schools and poses extra risks to students attending school. Sometimes they take heed and will leave the school.
o So that first principle is key: distinction. Intentionally targeting hospitals and schools is generally a serious violation of IHL. In addition, no party can use a hospital or schools as a "shield" to hide from attacks – doing this may be a war crime.
2. Secondly, indiscriminate attacks are also prohibited. This means attacks that don't adequately distinguish between protected civilians or objects and legitimate military objectives, e.g., the shelling of a whole town, including hospitals and schools, when the enemy is located in just specific parts of the town.
3. Thirdly, even attacks on legitimate military objectives must respect the principle of proportionality. "Incidental" harm to civilians and protected civilian objects such as hospitals and schools cannot be disproportionate to the military gain. In plain terms, what is sometimes called "collateral damage" must be limited. I believe the German expression translates loosely as: don't use a cannon to shoot a sparrow…
4. Fourthly, IHL requires all parties to take precautions to protect civilians and civilian objects such as hospitals and schools. For example, attackers must take precautions in their targeting, including issuing warnings in some cases. Defending forces may need to evacuate civilians who are too close to the action.
In short, IHL generally prohibits attacks on civilian objects such as hospitals and schools, and the people in them.
Let me say a few words now on specific protection under IHL:
IHL also includes some specific rules for hospitals and medical personnel. These rules reinforce the general rules just cited, eliminating any possible uncertainty. These well-known and historic rules date back to the original Geneva Convention of 1864 which specifically protected those who help the wounded on the battlefield.
For example, there are detailed rules in IHL about how hospitals can be identified, using the Red Cross or Red Crescent emblem. Just to be clear, hospitals are protected whether or not the emblems are displayed.
Some IHL provisions also refer to education facilities as protected civilian objects.
It is worth underlining here that IHL does not seek to establish a hierarchy of protected persons or objects. Rather, specific rules are intended to eliminate uncertainty, for example, that a medic from an enemy army is not a target. So that medic is entitled to protection, just like a wounded soldier. All are protected under the law, just as a school and a hospital and a family's home are all protected civilian objects.
To conclude, IHL provides clear, sufficient, strong rules to protect schools & hospitals from attack. IHL also protects the people who serve in them and who are served by them.
The challenge remains to ensure better – and more consistent - respect for all these rules. The Council has an important role to play in this regard. Through its actions and decisions it can reinforce the well-established and widely accepted IHL rules through a constant and consistent approach to their invocation, application and in cases of violations.
The ICRC stands ready to work with all concerned to ensure better respect for these rules and better protection for children in armed conflict.
Thank you.

Watch: Bon Qui Qui, A$AP Rocky & Alessandra Ambrosio for T By Alexander Wang
A comedy sketch also featuring Simon Doonan, Shannan Click, and Natasha Lyonne.
T by Alexander Wang's Spring 2013 video is pretty great. Instead of going for a moody monochrome palette and chillstep beats (sooo fashions), this season the fancy-basics label takes a comedic approach to a video campaign (also see: Kenzo's collaboration with DIS).
The video's protagonist is internet sensation Bon Qui Qui (aka comedian Anjelah Johnson) who you may recognise from MADtv, only this time instead of playing a fast food employee, Bon Qui Qui is a sassy T by Alexander Wang Sales assistant. A$AP Rocky makes an unexpected guest appearance, as does creative ambassador of Barneys New York Simon Doonan, models Alessandra Ambrosio and Shannan Click, and actress Natasha Lyonne.

POLICE in the county are hosting four events including one in Worcester in support of Mental Health Awareness Week.
West Mercia Police and Warwickshire Police are hosting a series of training events with a number of partner agencies to raise awareness and learn more about some of the issues they face in relation to mental health.
Mental Health Awareness Week starts on Monday and has been organised by the Mental Health Foundation.
The first event is taking place at West Mercia Police headquarters, Hindlip Hall, on Monday and will be supported by Worcestershire Health & Care NHS Trust and West Midlands Ambulance Service (WMAS).
The events will be attended by representatives from the police, mental health NHS Trusts, social care professionals from local councils, the Ambulance Service and NHS Clinical Commissioning Groups along with organisations like The Samaritans.
Each session will act as a training opportunity and will feature a mix of keynote speakers and experts, group learning workshops and also question and answer sessions with a professional panel.
Assistance Chief Constable Gareth Morgan, Chair of the Mental Health Strategic Board across West Mercia and Warwickshire, said: "This training provides learning for staff involved in dealing with individuals with mental health issues.
"With such incidents accounting for seven to 10 per cent of those received by the two forces, it is critical that we give officers and staff the knowledge and confidence to enable them to respond better to people with mental health needs."
Staff from the Protecting Vulnerable People Unit will be live tweeting updates from @PVPWarksWMercia on Monday and further tweets will be put out throughout the course of the week using the hashtag, #MHAT2014.

"It's a sign saying, 'I am here! I am here!' " says Ullas Karanth as he flails his arms and jumps up and down in a mock attention-grabbing wave.
From This Story
Related Content
He is referring to a scrape, a patch of jungle floor recently cleared by a tiger's hind paws. It's huge, the size of a cafeteria tray. Based on the freshness of the uprooted grass along the edges, Karanth figures a tiger passed here sometime last night. I kneel down and am hit by an overwhelming stench—the musky spray of a quarter-ton cat that has just marked its territory.
Signs of tigers are everywhere inside Nagarhole National Park in southwestern India. From our forest service lodge we hear the telltale alarm calls of deer in the middle of the night. On early morning drives Karanth, one of the world's leading tiger biologists, points out paw prints the size of dinner plates. We pass trees with trunks that the cats have raked bare, signposts for rivals and potential mates.
Karanth has deep piercing eyes that can spot a deer a quarter of a mile away from inside a moving vehicle. He prefers, however, to drive with his head sticking out the window so he can read the tracks of every animal that has crossed the path beneath our wheels. Gleefully calling out each animal by name, he seems oblivious as the vehicle swerves alarmingly from side to side.
After days of searching through forests that harbor some of the highest concentrations of tigers in the world, we have yet to see one. Karanth tells me he spent 15 years looking before he saw his first wild tiger. Even when the cats are all around, he says, the odds of seeing one are slim.
A few days later, driving down a dirt lane in neighboring Bandipur National Park, we come across a jeep operated by a local tour company. Bandipur has fewer tigers than Nagarhole, but its dry, open forests make for easier wildlife viewing. The jeep has stopped and its passengers are staring intently. As Karanth pulls up behind them I see stripes of orange, black and white. "Tiger!" I yelp.
One of nature's most perfect killing machines dozes in the afternoon heat. We watch the cat sleep as other jeeps crowd around us like a pack of dholes, the wild dogs that hunt inside the park. People gasp and point, then click their cameras from the safety of their vehicles. Slowly, the tiger opens one eye, and with a casual glance in our direction, locks me in a gaze so powerful that all else disappears. After licking its paws and stretching its back, the cat rises to its feet. Then the tiger turns its head and walks deeper into the forest until it disappears.
From the boreal forests of the Russian Far East to the jungles of Sumatra, tiger populations are in free-fall. In the past century, their numbers have plunged from an estimated 100,000 to fewer than 3,500.
This small pocket of southwestern India is one of the few places where the tiger popula- tion has reversed the trend and is now strong. Biologists and government officials from all over the world are visiting Nagarhole to learn from Karanth; he gives them hope that they can save their own tigers and other big cats.
Karanth, 63, grew up less than 100 miles from here and first visited Nagarhole (also known as Rajiv Gandhi National Park) in 1967 as a teenager. Hunting and logging were rampant in the park at the time. Seeing even a chital, the small spotted deer now found in droves throughout the park, was rare. "I was pretty sure I would never see a tiger by the time I grew up," he says.

Ornate traditionals distressed and full of character are modernized by illuminating color-ways in the Anastasia collection. Power loomed in Egypt of polypropylene and polyester, Anastasia not only is durable and easy care, but gives the appearance of being a fine rug made by hand. The intricate detail, luster of colors, and unbeatable price point establish the value of this outstanding collection. Anastasia is available in various sizes including rounds and runners.
Placing the correct size rug in your space is as important as choosing the right color or pattern. A rug that it is too small will shift the balance of the room unfavorably. A rug that is too big, especially in open floor plans, may put the area designations off. There are a few rules of thumb, but a picture says it better.

Topic: Gemzar, Carboplatin, and Avastin ??? Any Experience???
Hi All,
Dad's liver biopsy results are showing non-small cell carcinoma. Oncologist is saying that he has lung cancer although recent radiographs show nothing. Still uncertain about the CC diagnosis. He wants to start my 73 year old Dad on a combo of Gemzar, Carboplatin and Avastin?? Does anyone have any experience with this chemo regimen.
We are very frustrated that nobody seems to be in agreement with his diagnosis. He is showing no signs of lung cancer and lungs sound clear. No coughing, wheezing, breathing difficulty, etc. He is scheduled for a MRI of his brain and also a PetScan next week.
Dad was originally diagnosed with CC, 5 weeks ago. He is down 44lbs since then and has gotten very weak. Mom and I feel like we are on a rollercoaster ride, as everyone has a different opinion. Please help............

THE AFL Players Association hopes the suspension of player manager Peter Blucher will warn others in his position to maintain a thorough knowledge of AFL rules. The AFLPA's player agent accreditation board revoked Blucher's credentials for 12 months, following an investigation into his role in the illegal contract his client Kurt Tippett signed with Adelaide at the end of 2009.
Blucher's role in the deal, which will see Tippett miss the first half of the season, was investigated by AFLPA legal consultant Bernie Shinners, before he presented his version of events to the accreditation board.
Ian Prendergast, the AFLPA's general manager of player relations, said the board viewed Blucher's actions as ''a case of gross negligence'', with the agent arguing that he wasn't aware his actions were in breach of AFL rules.
Blucher was found to have: breached his obligation to act in Tippett's best interest, breached his obligation to act in a professional manner and exercise due care and skill, breached his obligation to keep up to date with the AFL player rules, engaged in conduct to the material detriment of Tippett and made false declarations while acting as an accredited agent.
Tippett was fined $50,000 by the AFL Commission and suspended for the first half of season 2013 after he accepted Adelaide's undisclosed promise that it would underwrite $200,000 of third party payments to him, and trade him to the club of his choice for a second-round draft pick at the end of his next deal.
''This whole thing has impacted on Peter in a severe way, which we were mindful of, and we also took into account the fact he's worked really strongly with people throughout his 30 years in the game and had a number of really strong character references that he submitted to us today,'' Prendergast said.
''But he fell seriously short of the expectations of him in his role as an accredited agent through that matter. He's accepted that he fell well short of his obligations. His version of events was that he did it unknowingly.''
Adelaide officials Steven Trigg, Phil Harper and John Reid were also penalised, while the club lost four draft picks and was fined $300,000.
Blucher will be able to have his accreditation renewed next year - a process that requires notching a 75 per cent pass mark when tested on the AFL rules and the collective bargaining agreement. Prendergast said it was all agents' responsibility to be fully across the rules.

Hey there ActionScript developers! As you may or may not know, we provide a lot of code examples in the ActionScript docs. However, these examples come in a variety of shapes and sizes, which sometimes makes it hard to get your bearings. So if you were having trouble running/using examples in the ActionScript 3.0 Developer's Guide, we have revamped the How to use ActionScript Examples page. Please visit this page and let us know what you think, either by leaving a "Was this helpful?" rating or by posting a comment.

For me, I don't believe in New Year's resolutions, I can start over any day of the year!!!
To stop using bad language
I don't have any New Year's resolutions because i won't follow it properly.
Well, at least you're honest with yourself :lol:
I'm keeping my resolutions a secrets... just in case that I don't do them :lol:
My resolutions for this year is - not to tell a lie in any circumstances and be honest....
Yes. Online success, get rid of smoking.
I'd like to get a life. Be more active socially. I have isolated my self for 3 years and it's getting lonelier every time. I am going to finish a project that I have been dreaming about. I hope to be a better person, have more patience, be contented, and to stop thinking too much about things. Ultimately, this year I pray that I'd be able to finally date someone. I mean, it's been years and I think it's way too long (like it's long been overdue...LOL). I need start thinking about sharing a life with someone. I'm not getting any younger. And that's what everyone in here wants for me this year. So, I hope I'd meet him this year, whoever he maybe. May God help him find his way to me, or me to him.
@Ng_Xen; that's a lot to do for one year... wish you the best of luck
I made a New Year's resolution to market my own business instead of only working on my clients. Too many years now I have let my own marketing slip away and watched as my colleagues and coworker kicked-butt online. I'm tired of being the invisible man online when it comes to marketing my own business. I have helped so many clients get sales.
Then when I move on I'm the one sitting there without a real business even though I basically built three businesses for clients this year. It sucks being the guy people call when they need sales only to be embarrassed by your own personal sales websites. It's frustrating and I'm not letting that happen this year.
I stopped making New Years Resolutions a few years back...6 or 7 years ago but I was still too young to fully commit to any new years resolutions hopefully this time I'm mature enough and wise enough to stick to them:D
Thank you! But yeah, I know. But I've already started on those not thinking too much, be contented, and have more patience. Love life should come along if I don't keep myself out off the public. I am really an aloof person, but when I'm with friends, I'm like the opposite one. I love to entertain and make people laugh. I just hope that I get to do that for myself this year. \( ' v ' )/
@Ng_Xen My New year resolution is exactly the same, to be happy and make others happy and make them laugh in whatever situations they are facing, because being happy, liberates you from all the shackles of loneliness, and isolation, when people are happy they attract persons, situations, and circumstances to make them more happy, so be happy and try and make other happy.
hi.., my greet to everyone on this forum site. taking resolution is one thing & to keep sticking with it is another thing. hardly this resolution goes well for a month & then nobody cares. all gets indulged in their busy daily life routine. just do your work sincerely. that's it.thanks.
To be honest to myself and to others . I am practicing this from 20 years .
1 Billion dollars, or 1 Billion euros. Either one is just fine.
Then, I'd rather have 1 Billion British Pounds
Yeah. But I've never been that person, sometimes maybe. I want to be consistent and really mean it. Actually, I have made this January really special by being more open to the person who's really close to me. I learned to open up and trust people more than before. You know, stuffs like that. When you get more mature, things like these make sense.
I dont have any new year resolution. Because i don't believe in that. so i don't waste my time in that.
well, i have tried resolutions before but never worked (as in everyone's case)... so i have took a resolution not to take any resolution... even that i couldn't follow
yo, dawg, i put a resolution in your resolution, so you could follow it, even if you dont

Iran Accuses U.S., Israel of Causing "Unwanted Slowness" on its Internet

Iran struggles to defend its networks from external attackers even as it is swept with internal political unrest
Just months after leaks from inside the Obama administration or senior intelligence indicated that the
U.S. and Israel has plotted to install malware
on computers at nuclear-processing facilities in Iran in a
successful sabotage attempt
, Iran is sounding off with new claims of U.S. or Israeli malice. Iran said Wednesday in comments to reporters that on Tuesday its national internet infrastructure was targeted by large-scale data disruption, which it believes was the work of the U.S. or Israeli, its
traditional arch-rivals
I. A New Attack
Iran's secretary of the High Council of Cyberspace, Mehdi Akhavan Behabadi, as accusing, "Yesterday we had a heavy attack against the country's infrastructure and communications companies which has forced us to limit the Internet. Presently we have constant cyber attacks in the country."
"Yesterday an attack with a traffic of several gigabytes hit the Internet infrastructure, which caused an unwanted slowness in the country's Internet. All of these attacks have been organized. And they have in mind the country's nuclear, oil, and information networks."
Iran has accused the U.S. of another "cyber war" effort.
[Image Source: Interplay (cover art for
The alleged attack comes at a period of high tensions between Iran's capital, Tehran, and the West. Both the U.S. and Israel have claimed to have intelligence indicating that Iran is seeking to develop short-range nuclear weapons, weapons which could pose a dire threat to the Israeli state. While the U.S. has stopped short of calling for a physical attack on Iran, Israeli has taken things a step further saying it will attack suspected Iranian nuclear facilities with or without the U.S. if Iran doesn't pledge to stop development.
Iran says it will defend itself if attacked and refuses to stop what it says is a "peaceful" uranium enrichment program.
II. The Threat From Within vs. the Threats From Outside
But the nation is also facing internal turmoil amidst a wave of revolutions in the Middle East. Iran's currency lost a third of its value against the dollar in just the last week, a staggering collapse that had citizens -- particularly those in the financial sectors -- protesting in the street. Iran's President, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, has ordered riot police to crack down on the protesters. This is the second time in only three years that riot police have clashed with citizen protesters; in 2009 citizens took to the streets claiming that the Iranian President had resorted to fraud in his successful reelection bid.
The recent protests, in part, have forced Iranian military and intelligence to step up their internet expertise. Iran has one of the world's most extensive nation-level filters, a firewall
analogous to China's
Sites like YouTube
or Facebook
have been banned
to try to prevent citizens from using them as channels to spread word of protests or other anti-government activities. Iran also bans some of these sites for refusing to obey Islamic law, which among other things forbid depictions of their Prophet Mohammed.
In recent weeks Iranian protesters have clashed with riot police, similar to the riots of 2009 (pictured).

But that filtering also leaves Iran's infrastructure vulnerable to foreign attack, as it means traffic is being routed through certain central conduits. Indeed, while Iran's Revolutionary Guards claim the country is
prepared to wage "cyber war"
with Israel and the West, the recent allegations indicate that Iran's efforts to secure itself against internal dissent are crippling its ability to defend itself against external threats.
Recent attacks on Iran have also
struck at the Iranian oil industry
, the lifeblood of the nation's economy. Iran is the world's fifth largest oil producer. As the U.S. refuses to buy its oil, thus Iran primarily sells its fossil fuels to China.

TEENAGER Lucy Smith was Wiltshire's most successful player in this season's national indoor championships.
The 18-year-old, who plays outdoors for Wootton Bassett, reached the final stages (last 16) in both the ladies indoor singles as well as the ladies pairs championship at Melton & District.
The brilliant young prospect who made her England U25 debut recently against Scotland in the Home International Series again emphasised her tremendous potential in the sport.
Smith had already collected some notable scalps in the singles including England junior and senior international Amy Stanton, the World Indoor Bowls Council World Under 25 champion two years ago, in the inter-area final, and added to that tally at Melton Mowbray.
In the last 16 of the singles Smith, showing no nerves and enjoying herself accounted for the vastly experienced Middlesex player Rhoda Young (Bounds Green) 21-17 sealing victory on the 22nd end with a maximum count of four.
Next up in the quarter-finals against an England triallist skip she produced an awesome display defeating Poole's Penny Cresswell (Dolphin) 21-13.
But Lucy's fine run finally came to an end in the semi-finals as she lost 21-11 to experienced England skip Janice Gower (Blackpool Newton Hall).
In the pairs (last 16) with her younger sister Katy, 17, the Smith girls easily accounted for Pat Watson and Daphne Wood (Chigwell) 21-13 but then missed out in the quarter-finals.
They lost to England U 25 international Louise Catchpole and her partner England senior and junior international Rebecca Field, last year's ladies world indoor champion 26-14.
THE Smiths, father Neil plus Lucy and Katy, competed over Easter in the planetbowls.com Dolphin (Poole) Open Singles.
Neil had a good tournament reaching the final but lost out on the last end of a three end tie-breaker going down 2-1 to Martin Puckett (Moonfleet, Weymouth) 8-3, 4-9, 2-1.
Katy Smith who competes in an England U18 trial this weekend reached the third round at Poole but then lost to Chris Daniels (Bournemouth) 5-8, 7-1, 2-1 while sister Lucy also lost to Daniels in round one on a tie breaker 5-9 7-2 2-0.
Meanwhile Alex Jacobs (North Wilts) went out in round one 5-3, 6-2 to Torquay's Danny Denison.
The Dolphin Open is the penultimate tournament on the 2013/14 planetbowls.com circuit. The final one the Adur Open in Southwick, West Sussex is scheduled for this weekend.

"Our "Bridal Brunch" invitations are absolutely perfect. I got just the right look I was going for, and have received many compliments from the invited guests."
"The invitation turned out prettier than I imagined. The text and colors were amazing. The gold shimmer envelopes were the perfect touch - high quality/rich looking."
"This card was perfect for the birdal shower I was giving. The bride's wedding colors are navy blue and whiite, so these were just right for the occasion. I added the pearl shimmer and that added a nice touch to the card."
"Did the color in navy. Changed the script to a different font. Design service was awesome as had a concern about a font I had originally picked for the registry line..they gave me 2 proofs and did great job. Would totally recommend this site!! Responded quickly!"
"I am hosting a bridal shower in a local pub and this invitation was perfect for the occasion. The design team handled all my changes easily. I removed the times from the two circles because I thought it was confusing. I added the registry and hostesses names to the back side. I chose the pearl shimmer finish with regular corners. It turned out perfectly. Utilize the designer review and you can't go wrong."

Branch chain amino acids (BCAA) are essential supplements used by elite athletes for recovery from exercise and to enhance exercise performance. BCAA's are called essential because they only come from the diet. Now the health conscious consumer can supplement their diet with BCAA's using convenient sports beverages and ready to drink powders. Convenience and good sensory characteristics are the keys to the success of a BCAA containing product. Historically BCAA products dissolved poorly, tasted bitter, and tended to foam when mixed. BCAA products have also been known to change color when mixed with other ingredients due to a browning reaction.
INNOBIO is proud to offer a "clear solution" to BCAA formulation challenges with SynnovoTM Instantized BCAAs for the instant beverage and powdered drink market. SynnovoTM Instantized BCAAs produce a clear, clean tasting, non-foaming beverage without any residue.

They're here! Now let's take a walk down the spooky spirit hallway.
I became familiar with the idea of the horror genre having a bit of a community built around it at an early age. I'm certain that this existed in other fandoms back in the early 80's as well, but for me, it was certainly there in the horror community.
A couple days ago Mark IMed me and said, "Do you still want to write for the site?". I'm honestly not sure if he was saying it in a "Hey do you want to write for the site? You're pretty good and you should get back into it" or a "What exactly do you think you provide for this world?
The good folks over at Image Entertainment have gone ahead and picked up the U.S. distribution rights to "All Cheerleaders Die", a new horror comedy written and directed by Lucky McKee and Chris Sivertson. The flick follows a young loner who joins the cheerleading squad and her pissed off ex-friend who tries out her spooky witchcraft on her and her new cheermates. Is cheermates one word or two? Is it even a word? God I hate Arcade Fire.
"Night Film" is an awful name for a movie. It's an even worse name for a book. And, yes that's right you guessed it, it's the worst possible name for a movie based on a book by the same name. But it's happening, there's no fighting it, and it's find a director in the form of Rupert Wyatt. The movie follows a reporter who's investigating the suspected suicide of the daughter of a horror film director. Well alright, I guess the title makes sense, but still it shouldn't be happening. Not on my watch.
Zach Galligan took to his twitters to announce that he'll be playing the lead in the upcoming big screen adaptation of Brian Keene's "The Cage". The movie will focus on a group of employees at an electronic store who find themselves trapped in the store after a gunman comes in and starts shooting people. You see it's a metaphor. "The Cage" is actually the store. Because the people are trapped in there. I get things and I like to make sure people know that I get things.
Saxon Sharbino, who kind of looks like the mom from the original "Poltergeist" has signed on to play the mom in the remake of "Poltergeist. This works put pretty well because if I have one complaint about remakes it's that people never look like people from the original movie and that confuses me. Also the thought of there being another Craig T. Nelson out there has given me a semi. I'm kidding, Sam Rockwell is playing the dad. He also gives me a semi. Don't judge me.
"Mama" director Andres Muschietti is apparently in talks with the folks over at Universal to take on the directing role of the upcoming "The Mummy" reboot. No real details have come out about the film but it will take place in modern time and the cast from the previous films will not make an appearance. You ever see that episode of "Seinfeld" where Elaine takes the Asian woman from her nail saloon to see "Rochelle Rochelle" but Bette Midler isn't in the show that night and they freak out? That's me right now but replace Bette Midler with Brendan Fraser.
The good folks over at Magnolia Pictures are on the verge of striking a deal that would land them the rights to Ti West's "The Sacrament". A new found footage film, "The Sacrament" follows two reporters as they try to escape from a community outside the US after one of their sisters turns up missing. No word on when or how the film will be released but for the first time I'm going to go ahead and say I think a Ti West movie sounds interesting. Now who wants a hug?
Sean S. Cunningham, the fella who directed the original "Friday the 13th", has dropped word that he expects a new F13 film to see the light of day sometime in 2015 if all goes according to plan. He also let out that the movie will not be a continuation of the 2009 remake but will in fact be a new story. I don't know if that's good or bad but I suppose it's best to keep positive right? Seriously, someone hug me. I just want to be loved.
6 year old Kennedi Clements has landed the role of Madison in the upcoming "Poltergeist" remake. For those of you keeping score at home this is the Carol Anne role from the original movie. So ya know, good luck sleeping at night for the rest of your life Kennedi. Also, what are your parents doing letting you read this website?
Ah right, there's a "Terminator" reboot in the works. It was really only a matter of time, but now that "Game Of Thrones" director Alan Taylor is being tossed around as a possible director I'm somewhat interested. And by interested I mean I assume I'll like the movie for 20 minutes and then be completely confused about what the hell is going on and who all these people are. When the hell is winter going to actually come!?
The big screen adaptation of "Dark Places" has added Drea de Matteo, of "Sopranos" fame, to its ever growing cast list. Based on the book by the same name, the film tells the story of a woman who's forced to revisit the events of her families murder when she was 7 and the brother who she testified against as the murderer. Charlize Theron and Christina Hendricks are also in the movie... Boobs.
All child actors are frightening, creepy and should be locked in cages like zoo animals. But i understand they are a necessity in some films. Like the "Poltergeist" remake, which has just cast Kyle Catlett of "The Following's", in one of its little people roles. They should have handlers like animals and be cleaned with hoses. Just saying.
Universal has picked up Lee Shipman and Brian McGreevy to pen the script to another remake of H.G. Wells' "The Island Of Dr. Moreau". Why the hell not huh?
Natalie Brown, who I'm sure you all remember from "How to Lose a Guy In 10 Days", is the latest name to be added to the upcoming FX series "The Strain". For those of you who don't read my news every other week when I post it, "The Strain" is based on the Guillermo del Toro and Chuck Hogan's novels about a group of survivors trying to take back control after vampires have taken over the world. Want to know how it ends? I read it. The point here is I know how to read.
I like to watch "Mad Men" because I work in advertising and it's fun to see what people think I do even though the show is set 30 years ago and everyone is kind of miserable. I'm telling you this because Jared Harris, from the show, has now been cast in the lead role of the upcoming "Poltergeist" remake. I'm also telling you this because I haven't written the news in over a week and my clever segway skills are pretty rusty.
Did you know that SyFy was looking to move forward with a series based on the 1995 film "12 Monkeys"? Me either! Did you know that the film's director Terry Gilliam thinks this is a "very dumb idea"? Yeah I probably could've guessed that too.
I had completely forgotten about "Mad Max: Fury Road". I guess it wrapped filming back in December and now it looks like there's going to be three weeks of additional footage tacked on in November to complete the movie. No real word on what the additional filming is for but I'm willing to bet it's just to get some move vacation time down in Australia. Those freakin criminals sure know how to party.
I went to the video store this past weekend to grab a stack of horror movies and was pleasantly surprised to find that the title I was least interested in, was head-and-shoulders above the newer movies I picked out. At first I was pretty skeptical of watching a G-rated black and white movie from the 60's. Thankfully I went ahead and rented it, and what I found was a haunted house film that was scary enough to have me looking over my shoulder every time I heard a noise in my own home.
Wait did I know there was a "Poltergeist" remake in the works? I feel like I might have known that. I feel like I might have started a post with this same stupid joke before too. Rosemary Dewitt has been cast in the lead role of the 'hey you built your house on top of an indian burial ground' film so I'm assuming they're doing a remake. What a terrible joke this is to play on here if there really isn't one in the works.
I am a big ol fan of George A. Romero's "Dawn Of the Dead". A super big fan even. But at no point did I ever say, "Hey this needs to be shown in 3D". Despite that thought a 3D conversion is in the works and it look like there might be plans to put the film out in theaters again. No release date has been dropped but apparently the conversion is about a third of the way done so we will see how this all goes. I mean I thought "Nightbreed" only needed to be an hour and 15 minutes so maybe I'm all wrong about this conversion. I'm just a big dumb penis after all.
"Hustle & Flow" is one of the greatest movies ever made and Terrence Howard is one of the greatest actors or all time. There's no arguing that. Any jackass who knows his ass from his hand can figure this out. So now that he's been cast in M. Night Shyamalan new Fox series "Wayward Pines" I have fairly high hopes. The show will focus on a secret service agent who comes to a small town looking to find to missing agents. Stuff happens I guess, but nowhere do I read a description of a rapping pimp that he encounters so maybe my hopes aren't as high as I thought they were.
Never let it be said that I don't love an extended version of a film. Never! In fact I am rather smitten with the news that to celebrate the film's 40th anniversary the folks at StudioCanal will release "The Wicker Man: The Final Cut". To be released in the UK on DVD this coming October, and hopefully in the US shortly after, the classic film tells the story of a police officer sent to a remote island to investigate the disappearance of a young girl. Seriously, If there's one thing I say about movies it's "Hey could you tack on another 45 minutes to that gosh darn thing already? I'm trying to watch a movie here!".
I had completely forgotten that there is a "Poltergeist" remake in the works but there is and Sam Raimi is producing the crap out of it with his Ghost House company. But who will direct!? Well according to the film's writer, David Lindsay-Abaire, Raimi will take on that role also and I for one believe him. He's got a freakin Pulitzer for F sake. Yuu going to call him a liar?
Want to see Wes Craven's "Scream" on the big screen this Halloween season? Me either but that jackass sitting across from you on the bus probably wants to so it's going to be there starting next week in selected theaters across this great nation. Just look at that guy sitting there, eating those Triscuits. God I want to punch him in the face.
I've never read a Dean Koontz book but his last name always makes me giggle like a school girl. And now I have absolutely no reason to read his book "Frankenstein Will Not Die" because the folks over at TNT are looking to turn it into a TV show. The show will be set in New Orleans and follow the famous doctor and his monster 200 years after it was created. See, if you wait long enough all written words will be turned into moving pictures.
Good news, Brian De Palma has confirmed that he is ok with Kimberly Peirce and her remake of the classic film "Carrie". I had always assumed all these people making remakes went to the original writers, directors and actors to get their approval before they even got started. Who knew.

Our dear Angry Birds are starting a new adventure: by now they'll have to get back their eggs from the green pigs' snouts in a zero gravity environment. The gameplay is still the same: you have to launch birds at pigs stationed on or inside various structures by using a slingshot. The goal is to destroy every single green pig on the playfield either by hitting the pigs directly or damaging the structures where they stand, which would cause them to collapse and kill them. However, in this new environment, both birds and the finger that launches them (that's you) will have to learn how to handle gravitational physics.
This new episode includes 60 new interstellar levels through 4 different Worlds (planets, actually). Moreover, you'll discover brand-new birds and power-ups which have been called to help you managing the handicaps of the gravitational field.
Same as in the previous episodes, upon completing each level, players get one, two, or three stars, depending on the score received. Players can re-attempt levels as many times as they wish, and can also replay completed levels in an attempt to improve their score at the end of the game.
Regarding graphics, Rovio has kept the essence but, at the same time, has worked on enhancing the game graphically, and that's clearly noticeable. Nothing to say about the storyline: they include amazing videos to involve the player in the birdy mood.
It's easy to predict that Angry Birds Space is going to be a success. However, we really appreciate the effort of Rovio not to get stuck and to make the game evolving, this time, even regarding physics. Must-have. You should already be downloading it.
We addressed some minor issues in order to improve the user experience. Thanks for playing, and keep popping those pigs!

Heidi Klum, Hilary Duff + More Celebs Hit Up the Pumpkin Patch!
October wouldn't be complete without a trip to the pumpkin patch! Join these stars as they search for the perfect gourds!
-Lucia Peters
October wouldn't be complete without a trip to the pumpkin patch! Whether you're looking for spooky jack-o-lantern fodder, something to roast and turn into pie, or just a decoration for your front porch, the patch is the place to be—even for celebs! This October, everyone from Heidi Klum to Hilary Duff headed out to the patch, many with their kids in tow (though some without—Mila Jovovich, we're looking at you!). Take a look at their pumpkin foraging trips here!

Additional Information
Wholesale Coyote Brown - Solid Color Shemagh Tactical Desert Scarf
Wholesale Military Shemaghs
The shemagh is a traditional arab headdress/scarf worn by arab men of a square of cloth, it is folded and wrapped in many various unique styles around the head. Shemaghs are found in arid and dry climates to provide protection for direct sun exposure as well as dust and wind. The woven design originates from ancient Mesopotamia (referring to either fish nets or ear of grain). The shemagh is also known as a keffiyeh, (ya)shmagh, ghutrah, hattah, mashadah, military shemagh, middle eastern keffiyah or arab kefiya. The keffiyeh is usually folded in half, into a triangle, and the fold is worn across the forehead. Often, the keffiyeh is held in place by a black rope circlet, called an agal. Some wearers wrap the keffiyeh into a turban, while others wear it loosely draped around the back and shoulders. The shemagh is known as a traditional desert Arab head dress, which evolved from turbans in ancient times. The shemagh is essential for protecting the eyes, nose, mouth, ears and face from sand and elements during windy and desert conditions. It is also used as a neck warmer or hand towel. Military shemagshs are worn by soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan and abroad throughout the middle east. Retains heat and absorbs sweat in warm/hot conditions. The middle eastern neck scarf is very popular amongst arabs and bedouins. Similiar to: the karma and Cambodian scarf and Tagelmust scarves. Military Shemaghs are also known as black army scarfs, Arabic fashionable clothing, red Keffiyeh scarves, arab scarves, middle eastern keffiyehs, arab turbans, Palestinian shemaghs, head tie arab neck scarf, desert scarf wrap, buy tactical shemaghs, Indian ghutra head cover, Keffiyah turbans, Military kefiyeehs, desert Arab headdress hat, Muslim kaffiyeh, Fashion shemaghs, Wear head tie shameghs, mashadah, hattah, ya-shmagh, etc. Military Shemaghs are commonly misspelled as arme arab keffiyeh, etc.
Living in New York City I am regularly presented with the newest and hottest fashion trends of the time. Recently I have noticed people of all ages and races wearing shemagh's also know as a keffiyeh. What was once generally limited to arid climate areas to provide protection from direct sun exposure, as well as for occasional use in protecting the mouth and eyes from blown dust and sand has now become a fashion trend among the general public. Exotic colors of all variety have come about including Red/Black, Tan/Black, Black/White and much more creating a frenzy among fashion enthusiasts.
Many people might ask when and where did the shemagh emerge from. Well as mentioned above it started out as an important article of clothing in arid climates. It would later turn into the main symbol of Palestinian nationalism. Palestinians have claimed that the shemagh is more then a piece of cloth but a "symbol of their pride and class struggle." They have also been worn by soldier's around the world and during multiple military campaigns such as in Vietnam in the 1960's, Iraq, and Afghanistan. Use of the shemagh by military's dates back to pre World War II. The shemagh has made quite a come back with western cultures during the last few years due to its widespread presence in magazines, movie, TV shows, and fashion shows. Even big name retailers have started adding the scarves to there collection.
When deciding if you should purchase a Shemagh or not you should remember that they are very comfortable to wear due to the fact they are generally constructed out of 100% cotton. They retain heat in the cold and absorbs sweat in warm/hot conditions. They can either be worn around the head, or simply around the neck as you would wear a regular scarf. Last but not least who doesn't like looking good and staying comfortable at the same time?
Also know as (ya)shmagh, ghutrah, hattah, keffiyeh, chafiye, cemedani, sudra or mashadah.

CreativeWeekUK starts with industry-wide debate on creativity
July 10, 2012
The UK's first ever Creative Week is finally here! The event, which is a celebration of the creativity in the UK, kicked off on Monday with an overview of the creative industries – and what an overview it was!
And if you missed the live show, don't worry because the sessions are all available on-demand here at the end of each day. That's also where you can stay tuned for all the action during the rest of the week. Whether you're a design nut, film buff, mobile fiend or photography pro, there's something for everyone, so stay tuned!
We kicked off the creative industry overview with a lively panel discussion between Brendan Dawes, Joel Gethin Lewis and Dr Chris Gerry who gathered in the studio with presenter David McClelland to discuss if creativity can help drive the UK out of recession. With the magnificent setting of Tower Bridge behind them, the debate flowed for almost an hour, and those watching online had their say too with a whopping 88% of people that took part in our daily poll agreeing that creativity is a huge factor in stimulating economic growth and solving problems.
The evangelist demos and show-and-tell sessions that followed included jaw-dropping tips and tricks for Illustrator CS6 and Photoshop CS6, which were all received with relish and resulted in our #CreativeWeekUK Twitter followers going crazy about the black magic and special sauce Adobe uses in its products! Go to our on-demand hub if you missed it and want to see for yourself what was so special.
And that was just the first day! Carry on following all the action on Twitter using #CreativeWeekUK. And don't just stay behind your screen, get involved through our competitions and audience challenges.

Sure you would do it like this:
crunch 20 20 abcdefghijklmnopqrs9 > passwordlist.txt
i am trying to create a wordlist with crunch i only need all possible passwords exactly 20 digits/letters long with exactly 19 letters (a-z) and 1 number (0-9) is there a way to do that?
Last edited by 4rgon5; 03-28-2010 at 05:14 AM. Reason: more exact question
Sure you would do it like this:
crunch 20 20 abcdefghijklmnopqrs9 > passwordlist.txt
i need the command to make a 20 digit 19 letters one number calculation in the form of for example "abcdefghijklmnopqrst1" (places interchange) but with the complete alphabet and the numbers from 0 to 9. Is this command accurate for that?
If you know where the number is in the password you can download crunch 2.3 from crunch - wordlist generator | Get crunch - wordlist generator at SourceForge.net which supports specifying the locations of letters and numbers.
I like the bleeding edge, but I don't like blood loss
The number could be at any place in the password thats why i want to create an (19^26)*200 passwords list to have all possible combinations. I am just looking for the right command to exclude all passwords with more than one number.
Purehates command is probably the best way.
Also your formula is wrong. The formula to calculate the size of a wordlist is (x^y)*(y + 1) and you have x and y switched.
It should be num-of-chars ^ length so (27^20)*(20+1). So 890,214,323,779,540,273,800,183,097,221 bytes or 890,214 YB (Yottabytes). I don't think you have enough disk space for such a file.
I like the bleeding edge, but I don't like blood loss
thanks my mistake. According to one study, all the world's computers store only approximately 160 exabytes. i will try with smaller passwords and let one machine compute for one or two months and hope that i get lucky.
But could you explain the math a little bit?
I thought if i had 19 possible characters and 10 possible numbers with in a 20 digits/letters password and i could eliminate all possibilities i would have 19^26 possible combinations off letters * (10*20) numbers = 2.279.779.037.074.628.864 combinations. So only 2.3 EB (Exabytes).
Where did I get wrong?
Last edited by 4rgon5; 03-28-2010 at 01:19 PM.
Is this what you want?
All possible alphanumeric passwords exactly 20 characters in length and containing exactly one digit.Code:./crunch 20 20 -f charset.lst mixalpha-numeric | egrep '^[a-zA-Z]*[0-9][a-zA-Z]*$'
Thank you very much. Thats exactly what i wanted.
hi sorry to jump into this thread, but it is relevant to what i am also trying to find out
i want to make a wordlist of only uppercase A - Z and only 8 characters long, after reading the posts in the forum i found crunch and the command i needed to use to get what i want, thanks for that
my question is as follows, a 56gb file (the one i specified in crunch command) was made quite quickly in the crunch folder and the pc is plugging away still 18 hours later filling it with (i hope) all the possible combinations i asked for...
after reading this thread and another it seems that my resulting list should in fact be much, much bigger
am i correct with the following?
(26 ^ 8) * (8 * 1)
208827064576 * 9 = 1879443581184
like in the other post using google to do the diskspace math gives me
(26^8) * 9 bytes = 1.70934398 terabytes
if this is correct then i may as well abort as i have nowhere near this amount of space...

Canadian southpaw Adonis Stevenson stopped Uruguay's Noe Gonzalez at 1:40 of the second round Friday night in a scheduled 12-round super-middleweight bout at Bell Centre. The 34-year-old Stevenson, from nearby Longueuil, improved to 18-1, successfully defending his minor NABA, NABO and IBF Intercontinental titles and taking the WBC Silver belt from Gonzalez (28-2). Earlier, Colombian light-heavyweight Eleider Alvarez outpointed American Rayco Saunders in an eight-round fight. The Montreal-based Alvarez improved to 8-0, and Saunders fell to 22-16-2.
