1. His name is Kabuto. not Kabutomaru or Kabuto/Oro or KabutOro.. Kabuto
2. if Rin was a powerful ninja than she most likely would be summoned. if not than she will not be summoned. Kabuto summoned STRONG ninjas. not just random ninjas for the eff of it. hes not gunna summon Rin for the sole purpose of erkking Kakashi. Kakashi is 1 man in a whole ARMY of ninjas.
and if Rin was not strong why would Kabuto even waste his time summoning her? if she wasnt strong how would Kabuto even hear about her to summon her? only the strong dead ninjas who had great reputation or who were notorious would be summoned by Kabuto.
also this is why Obito will not be summoned. he was weak! a genin/chunin ninja who died 2 seconds after awakening his sharingan. Kabuto wouldnt even have heard of Obito.
also Shin was in Anbu Root. a top class ninja. being in Anbu puts you in leagues of Kakashi, Yamato and Itachi who were also Anbu ninjas. its an insult to compare him to Karin. he was summoned because he was obviously strong. Kabuto didnt summon him for the sole purpose of pissing off Sai. Sai is 1 person in a whole AMRY of shinobis!

One of the most difficult things to learn is that mindfulness is not dependent on any emotional or mental state.. You don't need to move at a snail's pace to be mindful. You don't even need to be calm. You can be mindful while solving problems in intensive calculus. You can be mindful in the middle of a football scrimmage.

"So heads up, single cooks! Get inspired to cook delicious meals just for yourself with these tips and recipes from the author."
"Joe Yonan's written a book of recipes so electric and stimulating anyone who co-habitates with a loved one will seriously consider a trial separation just to eat this food the way it was intended to be eaten."
—Adam Roberts, creator of The Amateur Gourmet
"Joe Yonan's book Serve Yourself is proof that good things can come in small packages or, in this case, in single servings. Full of delicious and sophisticated recipes, solo diners who love food and cooking will no longer be shortchanged at the table thanks to Joe's book."
—Jose Andrés, Chef, restaurateur and author of Made in Spain
"Joe Yonan's Serve Yourself is brilliant for those who cook and dine alone, but his hip, sensible approach works equally well for couples looking to eat simply and well."
—Pam Anderson, USA Weekend food columnist, blogger, and author of Perfect One-Dish Dinners
"I usually cook for family or friends, but there is something liberating about cooking just for myself. No pressure! I am free to try the strangest combinations and I can eat in my pajamas and using my fingers. There are not enough books that teach you how to cook for one! In Serve Yourself, the food is so good that you won't notice that you are eating it by yourself and you do not have to wash the dishes . . . at least not right away."
—Jacques Pépin, author and host of "Fast Food My Way"
"In the course of our busy lives, time spent with one's self is precious. It is necessary to understand ourselves better–necessary to meditate, to reflect, to be creative, and to answer our emails. Eating solo is one of those special moments in our lives that we need to celebrate, to embrace, and certainly Joe Yonan's cookbook Serve Yourself has captured that very moment with delicious recipes and tips on how to make it happen."
—Lidia Bastianich, restaurateur and author of Lidia Cooks from the Heart of Italy
"Eating by yourself is one of life's great pleasures. Joe Yonan also proves that great food for one can be fast, simple, and delicious. So pour yourself a glass of wine, fire up the oven for a crisp, hot cheese and fig pizza, or stuff a few tacos with slow-roasted Mexican pork. And the best part?–you don't have to share!"

3L Awarded the Oliver White Hill Student Pro Bono AwardStory Abstract:Mark Kennedy, a third-year law student, has won the Oliver White Hill Student Pro Bono Award. The Hill Award is given by the Virginia State Bar Special Committee on Access to Legal Services, and "recognizes extraordinary achievements of outstanding students in the pro bono arena." Kennedy will be presented with the award at the Fourteenth Annual Pro Bono Conference, on May 13, 2004.
During Kennedy's first summer in law school, he worked for the D.C. Prisoners' Legal Services Project. Kennedy also worked for a public interest firm in New York City and at Washington and Lee he volunteers for many projects, including serving as the University's National Lawyers Guild Chapter President, raising money for AIDS awareness and working with recycling efforts. He has also organized a new campus initiative, "Men of Action," to raise awareness about violence against women.
In Kennedy's nomination letter, the Elizabeth Peck, Director of Career Services, noted that "Only when I pressed did he really let me know just how much work he has done. In a crowded room he is not the first person you spot; he's the guy who is quietly getting the work done while others talk. To honor someone who seeks to do good because it is the right thing to do, rather than because he may be later recognized, seems, to me, the best use of your award."

In Bantam, Daniel Day-Lewis gives theater-goers opportunity to ask questions about making of 'Lincoln'
Published 12:00 am, Saturday, December 8, 2012
There was definite cognitive dissonance in seeing British actor Daniel Day-Lewis stroll on stage before an attentive audience at the Bantam Cinema Saturday afternoon. The dapper actor, his graying hair neatly trimmed, was clad in red-accented black motorcycle leathers, a far cry from the rumpled, weary figure of Abraham Lincoln that had dominated the screen behind him for two hours and 29 minutes.
Mr. Day-Lewis had channeled the 19th century president who preserved the Union--and at the same time purified the meaning of the Founding Father's vision--in Steven Spielberg's latest epic film, "Lincoln." He had accepted the invitation of Sidney Koch to appear after the movie for a question-and-answer session with the audience.
In his performance, Mr. Day-Lewis deftly captures both Lincoln's humanity, and his skill as a politician and a master of men. Unlike the ponderous, sanctified images of Lincoln portrayed in earlier movies by the likes of Raymond Massey and a humorless Henry Fonda, Mr. Day-Lewis' portrayal retrieves from the mists the quicksilver changes in Lincoln's expressions, the high, resonant voice, the lumbering, stiff tread of a tired president whose size-14 feet always hurt.
Mr. Day-Lewis, who previously starred in "The Age of Innocence," "Last of the Mohicans," "The Crucible" and "Gangs of New York," confessed that for British subject he has spent "really a lot of time in 19th century America--and even in the 18th and 17th centuries." "I don't know how it happened," he said.
Lincoln, however, was virgin territory for him when he first received a call from Mr. Spielberg asking him to play the president.
"When Steven first called, it didn't occur to me that I was the right person," he said. "Seven years later, something in me changed."
But he had deep-seated concerns. "My main concern was that I would never be able to set foot in this country again," he said with a grin. "There have been a number of times when I felt that if a given piece of work went down the drain that would be it [for me]. How do you present a man who is so loved by people, even those who may not know that much about him?"
He said everything about Lincoln proved surprising for him "because I didn't know anything about him. I got a sense that even people from the U.S. have experienced him from a distance -- that there is almost a mythologized inaccessibility."
Mr. Day-Lewis' performance demolishes the marble façade that has been erected around the image of Lincoln. His is an accessible Lincoln, who sits in cabinet meetings whittling, who lowers himself to the floor beside his sleeping child to wake him for bed, and who undoes his wife's laces at the end of a grueling day. His is also a Lincoln capable of drawing his "Team of Rivals," so ably portrayed in Doris Kearns Goodwin's book of the same name, into supporting him in actions they might not completely approve of.
Mr. Day-Lewis was asked how he had conceptualized the role. "As I began to contemplate the idea of doing this, it seemed preposterous," he said. He began by reading, especially Ms. Goodwin's book, "an absolute must" in his opinion for those who would understand Lincoln.
"She carves a wonderfully broad avenue toward an understanding of Lincoln," he said. "My immediate surprise was how accessible he was. He almost welcomes you in. He had a sense of humor and his parenting was, for his time, very unconventional. He basically didn't believe children should be disciplined at all. There was often a state of bedlam in the White House. You discover him in this movie when he has already lost two children"
Armed with his reading, he said "all the clues were there" for developing his performance. Drawing on recorded descriptions of Lincoln's voice as being high, and sometimes, shrill, he began to develop his characterization. "A voice is a deep personal reflection," he said. "I wouldn't think of doing it until I was fairly deep into [the character]. I knew that he grew up in Kentucky, Indiana and Illinois--and the sound of those places would be in his speech. And I knew he spoke in a higher register.
"But what I don't do is try to break a life down into its component parts. I try to allow myself to be drawn toward an understanding, an illusion you create for yourself. The illusion is that these decisions take care of themselves. The only image I have found that comes close to it, is thinking of myself as a vessel and the life of the person [I am portraying] as a separate vessel, both afloat in the ether. As I find points of common connection, it ties us together. Then I start to draw the vessels together. If you are lucky, you begin to hear a voice. If its sits well, I try to reproduce it."
He said he found Lincoln to be "a strong individual with a highly developed sense of self. That was probably key to some of his finest efforts."
Because the White House was at the time of the Civil War open to the general public and, because Lincoln persisted in taking his "public opinion bath" by meeting with virtually anyone who wanted to speak to him, Mr. Day-Lewis said he believes Lincoln remained in touch with the mood of the country. "Now our leaders are protected from realities," he observed. "But Lincoln knew what was going on in the country, which was important because timing was so much a part of the decisions he made."
Asked how his long immersion in Lincoln's life and times might have changed him, he modestly said, "I would love to believe some of his qualities have left traces in me. But I am affected in a personal way by all the work I do.
Mr. Day-Lewis was asked how he would compare Mr. Spielberg to other directors he has worked with. "Each worked in his own unique way," he responded. "I felt a deep sense of complicity with each one. Steven Spielberg as a director is still a youth and it is remarkable to me when I consider how may films he has made in an industry that will squash the life out of you one way or another. He is still a youthful man with a huge appetite and love of making movies."
To appreciative laughter, he said there are "many directors I would like to work with--unfortunately, some of them are dead."
Mr. Koch said it was a great courtesy for Litchfield County and Bantam Cinema for Mr. Day-Lewis to appear. "He is just wonderful man. He has a great heart. He could be anywhere he wants and he is just doing this for the Bantam Cinema."
Mr. Day-Lewis received a special presentation at the end of his appearance. Sheila Nevins, president of documentary and family programming for HBO and Cinemax--as well as being married to Mr. Koch--had invited her friend, eminent Lincoln historian Peter Kunhardt.
Mr. Kunhardt, great-great-grandson of a Civil War solider who met Lincoln while convalescing in hospital, is the descendant of a family responsible for preserving many of the pictures that recorded the war. He presented Mr. Day-Lewis with a print taken directly from a glass negative exposure of President Lincoln.

Our 3 Favorite Vehicles From MTV's MegaDrive
What made Hal Needham possibly the greatest stunt driver of all time? A little bit of danger, he says. "There's no such thing as a great stunt if there's no danger involved," the fit, wiry and energetic 79-year-old legend tells PM. "I've broken fifty-six bones, broke my back twice, punctured a lung and knocked out a few teeth." Needham, who cut his daredevil teeth as an Army paratrooper, has doubled for stars like Charles Bronson, Dean Martin and Kirk Douglas and has appeared in and coordinated the stunts for thousands of TV-show episodes and films. His skills were in such high demand, he worked on five different TV shows in one day. Needham helped invent the tools of his trade, creating devices such as a cannon to flip cars and the Shotmaker, a revolutionary camera car that earned him an Academy Award. He eventually became the highest-paid stuntman in the world, helped launch the elite Stunts Unlimited organization and later owned the successful Skoal Bandit Nascar race team. But Hal Needham is perhaps best known for directing classic action-packed automotive adventures starring Burt Reynolds: Smokey and the Bandit, The Cannonball Run and Hooper.
Needham's new book Stuntman!, My Car-Crashing, Plane-Jumping, Bone-Breaking, Death-Defying Hollywood Life—on sale Feb. 9—tells the story of how a sharecropper's son growing up in Arkansas during the Great Depression eventually used his athleticism, determination and willingness to attempt practically any stunt to land himself in front of the camera and later in the director's chair. The book is loaded with so many great stories; it's tough to pick Needham's best work. So PM sat down with Needham to discuss his six greatest (and most dangerous) stunts.
In White Lightning, Burt Reynolds plays a moonshiner running from the police. And as he is chased to a riverbank, Reynolds jumps a car onto a moving barge. Needham was not only the stunt coordinator and second unit director on the film; he also doubles Reynolds for this stunt. "What I said to that boat captain damn near cost me my life," he says. Unbeknownst to Needham, in the rehearsals, the barge captain had only been using three-quarters of the throttle to launch the boat for the jump. "Just before we made the shot, I wanted to calm down the captain so he was thinking straight," Needham says. "I said okay captain, when I say go, firewall that thing." The captain launched the boat with maximum throttle, and the jump became much longer than it had in the rehearsals. "I had planned on landing 20 to 30 feet up on the barge. So I thought, I'll really give them a show. I just stood on the accelerator. I was planning on hitting the end of the ramp at about 60 to 65 mph. I just stood on the gas and I was probably doing 80 mph. If I hadn't been a showoff, that car would never have made the barge." The nose hit that barge and it popped up in the air, which practically welded the midsection of the car to the boat. "That river was so muddy and swift, if I hadn't gotten brave on the way to the ramp, I'd have ended up in Louisiana—we were shooting in Arkansas."

Since 1984 he's hosted a weekly classical music program on WTJU, and is also active as a blogger and podcaster.
More from Ralph Graves
Heads up!Welcome to this article from the Crutchfield archives. Have fun reading it, but be aware that the information may be outdated and links may be broken.
I look funny when I go on my early morning runs — it's not all because of my technique (or lack of it) either. My go-to portable headphones are a pair of in-ears that do a good job with my music, but too good a job in blocking out noise.
I run on a rural two-lane road with no curb. There's not much traffic, but what cars there are tend to blast down the road at full tilt. Since I have a real need to hear cars approaching from either direction, I run with one earbud in place, and the other dangling loose.
Comfortable design
So I was more than happy to try out the Polk Audio UltraFit 2000 sport headphones. These sports headphones are designed for practical use. The cups are held in place by flexible plastic fins that fit behind the ears. The padding was soft enough to feel comfortable touching my ears, and still left enough room for some ambient sounds to get in (like approaching vehicles).
|The headphones are available in either black/red or white/orange
color schemes.
I also liked the neckband. I've tried traditional portable headphones on my runs, and the feel of a thin wire headband bouncing up and down on top of my noggin was not pleasant. Having the band behind my head kept it off my skull, which was great. Only one drawback — if I looked up, sometimes the band hit the back of my neck. But I should keep my eyes on the road, not the sky anyway.
There was a thin reflective strip on the neckband, too. It's not enough by itself — I still wear light clothing and a blinking belt light for safety, but it was a nice touch.
Earcup options
I auditioned these headphones in early November, which gave me chance to try out another nice feature. The Ultrafit 2000's come with a variety of earcup covers, including a pair of soft plastic ones, thin foam pads, and thick woolen-like pads that resemble ear muffs.
|The headphones come with a variety of earpads.
In fact, that's their function — to help keep your ears warm on those cold November mornings. I've tried regular earmuffs, and because they completely cover the ears they dampen external sound too much (especially over earbuds). But the Polk earmuff earpads worked beautifully. They kept my ears fairly warm, and let enough ambient sound in to keep me safe.
Tangle-free cord — really
Polk claims that the headphone cord is tangle-free. I didn't mean to test that assertion, but over a two-week period of jamming the 'phones into gym bags, backpacks, coat pockets and even the provided travel pouch I found it to be true. I never had to unsnarl the cable. After dealing with headphones that present me with a Gordian knot on a regular basis, this was a welcome improvement.
Great sound for sport use
From a practical level, the Polk Ultrafit headphones were a joy to use. And they sounded good, too. As always, I auditioned a wide variety of music. Although they did a good job reproducing a lot of the detail in the music of my lossless digital files, they also colored the sound somewhat.
To my ears, the headphones had a little bit of an edge to them in the high end. Not unpleasant, but still there. Bass was nice and firm it sometimes seemed a little much for acoustic music, but right in the pocket for rap, soul, electronic and rock. And let's be realistic — I'm not going to be listening to Mozart string quartets or singer/songwriters strumming guitars when I'm out running. I want heart-thumping music with a strong beat that will help me keep my pace and energy level up. And for that kind of music, headphones' coloration actually enhanced the sound.
Run with it
Using the Polk Audio UltraFit 2000 sport headphones on my runs, I could listen to my music with both ears, and still hear approaching cars in time to take action. And with the headphones' sporty swept-back design and two-tone color scheme, I didn't look so odd, anymore.
Well, except for my running technique. But a great set of 'phones can't fix everything.

Very Nice and Works Well
December 21, 2013
This unit is doing a great job for the space we installed it in. The room is 20 x 30 and heats up nicely. The flames are nice looking and the fire is quiet. The fan included does not blow as well as others I have seen and is also a little noisy, but I've seen other units that the blowers are much more noisy than this unit. Installed the unit ourselves without any issues. The directions could be written a little better.
Pros:Stock unit looks good and works well Flames look nice
Cons:Noisy blower Accessories look cheap so we did not install the optional doors The blower is temperature activated. I did not see that in the directions so when we first started the unit we thought it eas not working.

Well made unit. Installation is straight forward. Could use some better instructions for the burner unit regarding remote control options. Looks great when finished with optional trim kits.
Pros:Easy install, looks great, see through design.
Cons:Installation of extruded outer frame is difficult and wimpy using supplied hardware. I drilled and countersunk some holes in the frame and used sheet metal screws to attach firmly.

Windows TCPDUMP without installing WINPCAP!!!!!!!!
So with this..
Something like this
\mytools\psexec.exe \\remotecomputer -c \mytools\tcpdump.exe -i 1 -s0 -w \\remotefileserver\share\capturename.cap
Lets me turn every node on my network into a remote Snort probe, or just capture anamolies!

Hi Mark,
Just discover your blog today while listening at pauldotcom insider on "Practical Client_Side Exploitation".
I reach this article allowing to capture without installing winpcap.
It's great but the link is dead and mostly it seems that the library provided by microolap is now mandatory registered.
I'm asking myself if you know other methods to do remote capture sniffing easily using psexec, without instaslling winpcap.. Allowing to use another library e.g or another method !
Thanks in advance !!
Nice to follow your blog (great material), hope see you some day at course or con !

You can still download tcpdump although their license has changed since this original post. The older version was "free for personal use". You can now download a TRIAL VERSION here:
Alternatively you can capture packets for free on your internal network using metasploits's psexec "exploit" and meterpreter as your payload.

The simplest way to sniff packets on Windows without ANY drivers is to use a raw socket sniffer.
The best raw socket sniffer around is probably the command line tool RawCap:

Careful What You Wish For
If you've found that the recent rally has negated fundamental theses, or pinned technical indicators in overbought conditions that have rendered them useless, the next few weeks could increase your frustration level for entirely different reasons. While this action has caused much trading angst, it is nonetheless difficult to hate a rally; on the other hand, it is pretty easy to hate choppy price action that leads to a pullback.
The weekly chart of the S&P 500 Index shows that the rally has been defined by the uptrend line drawn off lows in October and November of 2011, and in June and November of 2012. I have highlighted this chart several times in the past, when there were coordinated crossovers in the relative-strength index, moving average convergence-divergence and Chaikin money flow....310 more words left in this article.

Not even close.
Hulls is a hard-hat guy in an often coddled world. Letting others outwork him isn't an option.
Consider Hulls' typical pre-game warm-up. He is on the court, shooting three-pointers, free throws and midrange shots. He is there at least 30 minutes before his teammates arrive for their group warm-up, about 90 minutes before tipoff, pushing the pace.
It is not a blistering, leg-fatiguing workout, but neither is it a relaxed shoot-around. Hulls is all constant motion, sharpening his timing and preparing for IU's 40 minutes of fury.
"I try to do that before every game," he says, "get my reps up and get a little sweat going."
It is this kind of work ethic, and the results that come of it, that causes coach Tom Crean to insist Hulls can be a NBA guard, even though, if you go by appearance, Hulls has no chance.
Associate head coach Tim Buckley credits Hulls' dedication, which sometimes leads the senior to work out two or three times a day beyond practice. Buckley sometimes jokes that Hulls is only the second-best Hulls on campus now that his sister, Kaila, plays for the Hoosiers' women's team.
Jordan Hulls ranks third on the team in scoring (12.1 points) behind Cody Zeller (15.0) and Victor Oladipo (12.4). He has an impressive 32 assists against eight turnovers and that's with last Saturday's one-assist, three-turnover effort against Coppin State.
Hulls credits his ball efficiency with the play of freshman point guard Yogi Ferrell, who has a nearly as impressive 38 assists against 14 turnovers.
"Yogi has helped me out with that," Hulls says. "I don't have the ball in my hands all the time. He and I are switching on and off (playing point guard). I play more of the 2 (shooting guard).
"I let the game come at me a little differently. Yogi's turnover ratio is pretty good as well. A big emphasis for us is taking care of the ball. This is my fourth year now, so I should be at the point where I don't turn it over much anymore."
Gone is the early season uncertainty on whether Hulls and Ferrell would play at the same time. They have, and it's worked well. They combine for 17.7 points, 5.7 rebounds and 8.8 assists.
Hulls shoots at a 55.7 percent clip overall, 52.2 percent from three-point range. Ferrell has struggled with shooting. He's shooting 25.6 percent from the field, 12.5 percent from three-point range. However, he leads the team in free-throw shooting, at 88.9 percent.
"We feed off each other as far as him getting in the lane and kicking," Hulls says. "Yogi is very explosive. He gets (in the paint) and makes great decisions. He's getting better at shooting. We have full confidence in him. He doesn't play like a freshman."
Expect that to continue against Central Connecticut State (4-3), which comes in with momentum from Wednesday night's 87-84 win over New Hampshire. The Hoosiers (8-0) lead the nation in scoring (87.8 points) and in margin of victory (31.8 points).
"We're going to get everybody's best shot," Hulls says. "They have to get our best shot as well."
Central Connecticut State lacks much size. It doesn't have a player taller than 6-8. It also lacks depth. The five starters average 36.1 minutes per game. By comparison, Hulls leads the Hoosiers in minutes played, averaging 27.6 minutes.
Kyle Vinales, a 6-1 sophomore guard, is the leading scorer at 25.7 points. He had 32 points in a loss at Hartford. He averages 39.5 percent on three-pointers and 85.2 percent from the free-throw line.
Junior guard Matt Hunter averages 16.8 points and 7.7 rebounds. Guard Malcolm McMillan averages 7.3 points and 5.0 rebounds.
Central Connecticut State, which was 13-16 last season, is projected to finish in the middle of the pack in the Northeast Conference. The Blue Devils are in the same conference as Bryant, which IU beat 97-54 in the season opener.
Crean spent most of this week recruiting on the East Coast. Prospects included 2015 shooting guard Malachi Richardson and 2016 point guard Asante Gist from New Jersey. Crean also watched Noah Vonleh play a game. Vonleh is part of next year's heralded IU freshman class.

DEAR JOAN: A co-worker lives next door to a family with a full-size poodle who is left during the day in a backyard with a 4-foot perimeter fence — a fence that she easily clears every day once the family has left for work and school.
The pup happily trots to parts unknown for play dates, most likely.
The earliest returning family members arrive home at 4 p.m., and just before that hour the poodle comes home as well, hops back into her yard, and all returns to normal. The family suspects she has remained on their property, of course, and probably the pup is even wise enough to supply evidence on the grounds to that effect.
As the canine seems to be doing very well for herself, my colleague is torn between informing the neighbors or respecting the choices of the poodle.
Tim Bowden
DEAR TIM: Your co-worker needs to rat on the poodle.
The issue here is safety. Wandering through the neighborhood is dangerous. She could get hit by a car, get into poisons, annoy neighbors with barking or bodily functions, annoy other pets and wildlife, and she could be stolen, lost or picked up by animal control. I hope she has identification.
The owners need to know and I hope they will be responsible pet parents and take action to keep the perambulating poodle safe at home.
DEAR JOAN: If perhaps some of the female bears in the Sierra were pregnant last fall, but the lack of cold and snow has thwarted the hibernation instinct, what will happen?
Will the sows just dig in somewhere and deliver without the protection of a den?
P. Corr
DEAR P: Bears are not the heavy sleepers they are portrayed to be.
They do hibernate, but it is a light sleep and the length depends on the weather and availability of food. In zoos, where the bears have a steady diet, they usually don't hibernate at all.
The lack of cold and snow in the Sierra shouldn't matter to the pregnant females. They still will build a den, have their cubs and snooze a bit. The mild winter may have delayed the onset of hibernation, but the pregnant females would have secured their dens in anticipation of giving birth.
In places such as Alaska, bears will hibernate for up to seven months. In California, it can be two to five months, depending on the weather. Even when hibernating, they often wake up, search for some food and then return to sleep.
Keep cats clawed
Two years ago California enacted the nation's first law that prohibits landlords from requiring tenants to declaw or devocalize their cats and dogs as a condition of renting. But the voluntary practice of declawing cats continues.
Declawing is much more than just removing claws. Cats use their claws as we use our fingers. It's a painful operation that leaves the cats physically limited.
To learn more, join San Jose Councilmember Pierluigi Oliverio at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday in city hall council chambers to see "The Paw Project," a critically acclaimed documentary on the practice. Dr. Jennifer Conrad will answer questions after the film.
Seating is limited so reserve a seat by emailing firstname.lastname@example.com.

The push to for states to pass farm protection bills, dubbed "ag-gag" by animal activists, is growing, and five states are currently debating measures to restrict undercover reporting at farms and ranches.
According to a report by Food Safety News, one of the common trends in this year's push for farm protection measures revolves around reporting abuse within a timely fashion. In Nebraska and New Hampshire, for example, the proposed bills provide a 24-hour reporting window. Read, "Common Element for 2013′s "Ag-Gag" Bills: Quick Reporting."
Proposed measures to protect farms and ranches include
- Arkansas: Two bills are on the table to protect the state's farms. The first, SB 13, moves to ensure that livestock producers are investigated only by law enforcement agencies on accusations of animal cruelty. The second, SB 14, would make it a misdemeanor to "interfere" with a livestock or poultry operation and requires anyone who wants to record images or sound to first obtain consent from the owner. It also takes on falsifying job applications to gain employment on a farm or ranch.
- Indiana: Like Arkansas, two farm protection bills have also been proposed. SB 373 would make it illegal to record agricultural or industrial operations. SB 391 takes it one step further by not only making it illegal to record agricultural operations but would require the Indiana Board of Animal Health to maintain a criminal registry of convicted offenders.
- Nebraska: LB 240 would prevent someone from falsifying a job application with the "intent of damaging" an animal facility or causing "economic harm" or "doing serious bodily injury." In some cases, such as economic damages exceed $100,000 or there is serious bodily injury, felony charges could be considered. It also includes a 24-hour reporting time limit.
- New Hampshire: HB 110 would require anyone with evidence of livestock cruelty to report and submit recordings to law enforcement within 24 hours.
- Wyoming: The state's HB 0126 would require animal abuse to be reported within 48 hours. It would also make it a misdemeanor to record images or sound on an agricultural operation
However, Emily Metz Meredith with the Animal Agriculture Alliance points that even when abuse reporting is supported, animal activist groups fight them. In another interview with Food Safety News, Meredith says that the reasoning behind their opposition is clear.
"The answer is simple," Meredith said. "This legislation would destroy any opportunities the above-referenced groups would have to film, photograph or otherwise exploit farmers, ranchers and processors."
Read from the Food Safety News here.
Even agriculture producers question the effectiveness of these "ag-gag" bills. On a poll on porkNetwork, 73 percent of respondents didn't believe that they would help agriculture. Twenty percent thought that it would. See the poll here.

I've used these API units in Lunchbox form and they are amazing. I once did a A/B test comparing my mic with 5 Powercore plug-ins vs a lone API 512c compressor. No matter how I tweaked things the raw 512c killed it. The new Channel Strip puts the very best API has to offer in a single rackmount unit. Expect a street price around $2700. If you do vocals and your sticking with making music for the next 10+ years it's worth the price.
"The Channel Strip is made up of a 512c mic pre, our famous 550A EQ, the 527 Compressor and the 325 Line Driver, combining many well-known and highly coveted pieces in one package. Each processing piece can be switched in or bypassed individually and a Flip switch allows the compressor to be placed after the EQ if desired. Additionally, The Channel Strip includes an insert point, sidechain input, multiple metering locations as well as the famous API 2520/transformer combination." – apiaudio.com

The story behind Yogi Tea starts with a man named Yogi Bhajan who taught holistic living while serving spiced tea. His students called him "Yogi Tea," and some students went on to brew their own blends of teas, and the endeavor eventually became known as the Yogi Tea Company. By the mid-1980s, the fledgling company had three tea blends. Today, you can find numerous varieties of all-natural and organic teas that address specific health needs using specialized formulas for both flavor and purpose. Among the selection, you can find some detoxifying teas, soothing teas for stress relief, herbal teas, and even some just for women's health. Yogi Tea operates under the principle that wholesome, unprocessed foods are the best way to enjoy essential health benefits complimented by intriguing, delightful flavors.

|Official Title:
|Measurement of Adherence to ART in HIV-Infected School-Aged Children in Uganda
- Median antiretroviral therapy (ART) adherence levels for multiple measures of adherence [ Time Frame: Measured monthly for 12 months ]
- Correlation of median ART adherence levels among the multiple measures and with HIV RNA [ Time Frame: Measured after 1 year ]

|May 2010
|Primary Completion Date:
|May 2010 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
CHARTA study cohort
Primarily 5- to 10-year-old Ugandan children with HIV or AIDS who are taking ART, with some 1- to 4-year-olds included because of recent trends in treating younger children
Detailed Description:
HIV is a virus that weakens people's immune systems and can cause AIDS. Antiretroviral therapy (ART) is a treatment for HIV that combines different types of antiretroviral medications, but it must be taken throughout a person's life without missing doses to be effective. When people do miss doses, the HIV virus has an opportunity to develop resistance to the medications, making them less effective in the future. Reports indicate that as many as 50% of children infected with HIV who are living in resource-limited countries regularly miss doses of their ART. This study will test different methods for determining children's rates of adherence to ART medications. This will both define the exact magnitude of the problem and direct future efforts in increasing ART adherence in children.
Participation in this study will last 12 months. All children enrolled will undergo a series of assessments of medication adherence. At baseline and every month over the course of the study, researchers will make unannounced home visits to measure the amount of medicine that remains untaken by participants and to record how many times the electronic cap on participants' medication bottles have been removed. Participants with cell phones will also receive monthly phone calls during which they will be asked to measure the amount of their medicine that remains untaken. At study entry and after 6 and 12 months, researchers will also examine child participants' medical records and the results of their regularly scheduled blood tests. At these blood tests, an additional half teaspoon of blood, which may be used in future testing, will be collected and stored by the researchers. After 3, 6, 9, and 12 months, researchers will request to collect hair samples from child participants to test levels of HIV medications in the hair, but participation in this part of the study is optional.
Assessments of reasons for medication adherence will also be performed. At study entry and after 3, 6, 9, and 12 months, children and their parents will complete questionnaires about their understanding of HIV medicines and HIV infection, motivation for the child to take medications, behaviors related to taking medications, and basic personal information. One and 7 months after study entry, some parent participants will also complete interviews with study staff about giving HIV medicines to their children.

The wood is oak and the chairs have been in the family for 50+ years and were purchased from an antique shop, auction, or thrift store. The chair measures 45" from floor to top of chair back. The chair seat is 17 1/2 " from the floor. When the upholstered seat is included the chair heighth is 18". It appears that the chair originally had a smaller inset upholstered seat based on the cutout in the seat. Currently, the upholstered seat extends beyond the cutout. I love the graceful design of the back and the chair legs and would like to know more about this style.

There's a reason a lot of us drooled over the potential of a wing combo involving a healthy Eric Gordon (a pipe dream at this point obviously) and Paul George. Gordon is really good at all the stuff is not good at, while also being pretty good in the areas Paul is really good at. Health, and personnel situations have rendered this pairing impossible, but a healthy Eric Gordon and Paul George would probably be the best wing combo in the NBA, but like I said just not going to happen.
The point isn't that Paul sucks or is sucking, yes he's had a bad pair of games offensively, but that is the type of player he is and always will be.
Instead of people just admitting that they set the bar for Paul WAY TOO HIGH, they would rather say Paul isn't living up to his potential, well I vehemently disagree, and I'm sad to see this happening because I said it would happen when people started tossing the T-Mac comps around. Paul is EXACTLY the guy I thought he would be back in the Chicago series, a really decent two way wing, who can get hot from outside and give you 30 point nights, but for the most part is a really average offensive player that plays smothering D rebounds better than any other 2 in the league pretty much and is also an above average passer when you put him in low pressure passing situations. Don't blame the player if you're mad at Paul, blame your expectations that were just way off base. And Vnzla, this is not directed at you, I was just replying to your post since it is not a Danny Granger vs. Paul George thing, it is an unreasonable expectations Paul Goerge vs. Real Paul George thing.
And Paul may still explode and become a 20 ppg guy, but that should be a surprise for anyone who has watched him, not what is expected.

Rhyno is good for limiting distance. It is quite straight at high power still giving a lot of user error protection and powered down fades nicely more than the Aviar you have. So for differently shaped courses it can be helpful. I haven't thrown Hydras so i don't know about that. My FD may have been a lemon but i'm not buying another one unless i first can loan one that flies well. Roady would overlap hard with the FD because the FD is deceptively long despite being slower. Roady is in between Bliz Boss and the PD in distance. What happens on BH throws with the Boss?
JR wrote:That is a good description of the usefulness of the Rhyno in short but they are even better than that.

I left a cliff hanger about the Rhyno on purpose to make you even more curious. As in get one to find out for yourself The Rhyno doesn't seem to get enough praise outside of here and i may be the most rabid Rhyno fan here anyway. I used it even as my main putter for around a year but as a drive and approacher it is much better. While it doesn't make my regular bag any more it comes along on windier days and depending on the course i'm on. And i use a slew of putters because of the tight holes and often short enough holes that are reachable with putters. In that slew of putters Rhyno has a second tier staple status meaning it is first tier depending on the conditions.

Back with Blue Jays, Reyes progressing with rehab
NEW YORK -- Jose Reyes rejoined his teammates in New York on Friday night as he continues to rehab a severe left ankle sprain.
Toronto's shortstop has been out of action since sustaining the injury while stealing second base on April 12 in Kansas City. He recently had a walking boot removed and has begun the slow process of regaining strength in the area.
Reyes went onto the field prior to Friday night's game at Yankee Stadium and took part in stretching while also playing catch. He's already resumed hitting off a tee and expects to start jogging by the end of next week.
"It's frustrating because I want to be on the field helping my ballclub win a lot of ballgames," said Reyes, who will accompany the team back to Toronto on Sunday. "Injuries happen, that's part of the game. I've been working the last five weeks very hard to come back as soon as possible."
Reyes was expected to be out until the All-Star break, but Blue Jays general manager Alex Anthopoulos said it's possible that timeline could be pushed up to the end of June. The biggest test will come when he starts running, something which likely will happen within the next couple of weeks.
The injury is somewhat similar to the one he experienced back in 2003 with the Mets. He was forced to miss only 26 games because it happened toward the end of the season, but he was still feeling the effects the following Spring Training.
The healing process should be a lot quicker this time around because the pain hasn't lingered in quite the same way.
"The one that I had with the New York Mets was worse than this one," Reyes said. "That one took me a long time to come back from, this one is not that bad. I can see in five weeks I've made a lot of progress. That's good to see."
Reyes was off to a hot start at the time of his unfortunate injury. He hit .395 (15-for-38) with four extra-base hits and five RBIs in 10 games and provided Toronto with the prototypical leadoff hitter the club hasn't had in arguably a decade.
The Dominican native's departure sent a ripple effect through the batting order, and the club has experienced difficulty regaining its footing ever since. The Blue Jays entered play on Friday night having won four consecutive games, but they were still seven games below .500 and in last place in the American League East.
The Blue Jays' prolonged struggles have made it even more difficult on Reyes, who said he has watched every game this season. But the recent turnaround has given the Blue Jays and their walking wounded some renewed hope.
"Right now they're doing the little stuff, getting a big hit with two outs -- that's something earlier in the season you didn't see that much," Reyes said. "When you get that huge hit with two outs, everybody gets excited and that's something I've seen the past week. Hopefully, they can continue to play like that."

Universe Mode: My Continuing Obsession With 'WWE 2K14′ And Why It's Basically Fanfic
I've never written fan-fiction. Okay, well, now that I think about it, that's actually a convenient lie. When I was 12, I started writing a novella-length sequel to Army of Darkness and gave up after the first chapter, and there are definitely a couple of Ask Chris columns that only avoid being straight up fanfic because I was writing them for my actual job and I can tenuously claim they were parody. But technically, in the traditional sense of a full length story detailing what would happen if Bella and Edward had to fill in as Gotham City's protectors due to Batman's tempestuous marriage to Goku, that's never really been my thing.
I do, however, know exactly what it's like, because when I play WWE 2K14, I go into it with a set of elaborate storylines that would rival any Harry Potter sequel on the Internet. It's... It's kind of becoming a problem at this point.

Good value for price
Jan 18, 2011 | By Amanda G
These frames are simple, and functional. They come with 8 bendable metal tabs to hold the frame backing on, which are a bit much to deal with when you're framing 10 pictures. Also, the hanging hardware on the back of the frame(one in each upper corner) requires either 2 nails perfectly placed on the wall or use of a ribbon or wire to create a triangle (in which case they are not 'ready to hang' as listed in the description). Overall an ok value for the price.

Even though Jack Johnson cites the North Shore of Oahu as home, Friday night's performance at Balboa Theater felt like a homecoming show. Supporting his sixth solo effort, From Here to Now to You, Johnson's career launched in San Diego around the release of his debut album, 2001's Brushfire Fairytales. At the time, FM94/9's midday radio personality, Hilary (formally with 91X), introduced Jack to the San Diego airwaves propelling him from gigs at the now defunct Martini Ranch in Encinitas (capacity 185) to record-breaking crowds at the Del Mar Race Track -- attracting more than 25,000 attendees.
The rest is surf folk rock history.
Johnson, 38, walked onstage at the sold-out Balboa Theater donning his usual getup of jeans, t-shirt, and flip flops. Accompanied by an acoustic guitar and performing in front of a hanging tapestry, the Hawaiian singer-songwriter kicked off the show with a 30 minute coffeehouse set which included "Do You Remember?" (off 2005's In Between Dreams,) "I Got You", "Gone" and "Good People." During songs breaks, the enthusiastic audience screamed out requests and accolades, along with annoying "Freebird" chants.
When he could get a word in, Johnson shared anecdotes consisting of a self-deprecating account of working as a dishwasher in a pizza shop, and an "awww"-inducing story about convincing his young son that if he drank too much soy milk he would grow a tail with an eyeball at the end of it.
By the time he got to his hit "Taylor" (off 2004's On and On), the stage lit up and Johnson revealed his band consisting of longtime drummer Adam Topol, bassist Merlo Podlewski, and masterful multi-instrumentalist and backup singer, Zach Gill, who added a much-appreciated boost to the show.
The set stayed committed to tight, linear renditions of Jack's catalog, but offered some diversity by infusing The Cars' "Just What I Needed" into "Sitting, Waiting, Wishing" and Steve Miller Band's "The Joker" into his hit, "Bubble Toes". Other standout moments included Johnson trading vocal duties with Gill, and Podlewski rapping over "Staple It Together."
Throughout the evening, the crowd -- which included a handful of little kids -- seemed confused as to whether they should stand up and dance, or remain seated. At one point, Jack admitted that he usually sits at shows, but it was OK to stand during "Flake" and other upbeat songs.
Performing for two and a half hours, Johnson finished the night where he started -- alone onstage, strumming hypnotic surf jams with the San Diego audience in the palm of his hand.

POLICE have caught a North Yorkshire man who broke prison-release rules after he was jailed for robbery.
Joshua Sargent, from Thirsk, was arrested in Sheffield yesterday and is currently in custody. The 20-year-old is now due to be transferred back to prison, having previously been released on licence in September after being jailed for three years for a March 2011 robbery in Ripon marketplace.
"Joshua Sargent believed he could continue to make a mockery of the justice system and evade his due punishment by flouting the terms of his prison-release licence, and this was clearly not the case," said Inspector Mark Gee of North Yorkshire Police's Hambleton and Richmondshire Safer Neighbourhood Team.
"The fact Sargent is now back in custody to serve the remainder of his sentence for robbery shows North Yorkshire Police will never stop hunting for those people who blight our communities and deserve to be behind bars."
The original appeal for information on Sargent's whereabouts was made at the start of October, and Inspector Gee thanked the media and the public for helping the search, saying: "It is vital police and the public work together to bring offenders to justice, reduce crime and improve the quality of life for us all."

A SUMMER picnic and musical extravaganza will make a Northwich park Simply the Best on Saturday, June 21.
A Tina Turner tribute is the headline act on a full bill of entertainment starting at Verdin Park at noon.
Singers and musicians will perform throughout the afternoon and evening, with a fireworks finale closing the event at 10.15pm.
Admission is free to the Verdin Park Music Festival, which has been organised by Northwich Town Council.
It is the second Verdin Park Music Festival arranged by town mayor Clr Alison Gerrard, after the successful Proms in the Park events held during her first term as mayor in 2011 and 2012.
"Last year the sun was shining and we had a lot of people up there having a good time," she said.
"I'm really pleased with how it's grown – the idea was that each year we'll develop it and it'll grow bigger and bigger."
She added: "Bring your picnics again and your chairs ¬and enjoy it – it's all free."
Acts on the day include Vale Royal Drums Corps, Dee Sign Choir, country singer Steven Doyle and Wayne Storey, among others, with the Tina Turner tribute act performing in the evening.
Clr Gerrard said: "We wanted to go for something that will appeal to a lot of people and be a bit of fun.
"With Tina Turner, everyone knows the songs and we'll hopefully have everyone up there singing 'Simply the Best'."
There will be a short interval following the music and then the firework display will start at 10.15pm.

I have a large (aprox. 18" H) very old lamp that belonged to my Great Aunt, I believe it was orignaly a vase that was converted at some point. It was purchsed in the 1940s by my aunt from anitique store. Its in great condition, the front has a scene with two women and sheep, with a farm house in the background. The back is blank in that colbolt blue color. If you have any information on this peice as far as a possible maker, time period and possible value, it would be greatly apprecaited


text: I don't agree with the fact of being proud of a team for their fighting. Pure and simple. Maybe it's just touchy to me because I'm a Pacers fan. K Stat of course isn't upset about it, because his team started all the fights, and to back it up, they won championships. I personally think it's a bucket-a-****.

With only 24 passengers, Island Passage offers more space for you. This intimate voyage features Frech Polynesia's Leeward Islands. You will visit Bora Bora, Raiatea, Motu Iriru, Huahine, Taha'a.
On arrival in Papeete, Island Escape will meet you at the airport and have a private transfer for your night at the Intercontinental Tahiti (or a similar style and quality – based on availability). The room includes breakfast the following morning before a private transfer to Papeete Airport. After the cruise, the transfer to Bora Bora airport and the return Sunday flight to Papeete. Once back in Papeete your own arrangements will apply.
Sunday - Bora Bora Tahiti
After a short flight from Papeete, the airport ferry (this is included in the air ticket) transfers you to Vaitape. We suggest an afternoon flight. We meet you from the ferry terminal at 4:30 pm with refreshments and cold towels before we transfer to you to the ship for boarding at 5pm. Take time to explore your home for the next week, meet fellow guests and our fabulous crew. A light snack is served on deck as we move to the lagoon for the evening. After dinner onboard, you are invited to Captain's cocktails with stunning mountains as a backdrop. We remain inside the lagoon for a comfortable sleep at anchor.
Monday - Bora Bora to Raiatea
There is time for a swim off the ship before we depart at 10 am to cruise west across the Bora Bora lagoon (don't worry- we'll be back) and depart on a 2-hour crossing to the island pair of Taha'a and Raiatea. Lunch is served on entering the lagoon at Herepiti Bay on the Southwestern side of Taha'a before proceeding to Uturoa, the main centre in Raiatea which itself is the largest centre in French Polynesia outside of Papeete. Uturoa has a variety of local stores, local markets, bars, cafes and you will be free to explore the township for the afternoon. Dinner is served when all guests are back onboard at 6 pm.
Tuesday - Raiatea to Motu Iriru
After breakfast you will transfer to a large outrigger canoe for a guided tour and stories from one of the real local characters. Prepare to be entertained as he shows off the eastern lagoon on Raiatea and winds up the tiny Faaroa River, Tahiti's only "navigable river". On departing the river we arrive at Motu Iriru for a picnic lunch and a coconut class on the sand. Swimming here is beautiful so hats and sunscreen are a must. Return to the ship by late afternoon, which will now be moored at an adjacent Motu for water activities and an overnight anchorage alongside white sand beaches and palm trees.
Wednesday - Motu Iriru to Huahin
After a tropical breakfast on deck and the chance for an early swim, we leave Motu Iriru and head for Huahine. All of the islands are reasonably close so we plan to arrive, be anchored in Fare Harbour, and have the activities underway before noon. Huahine is known as the garden island due to an abundance of lush tropical foliage. It is also extremely picturesque with steep mountains descending into protected bays of azure blue and emerald green waters.
You may wander the pretty village of Fare. You will find a nice assortment of local stores and boutiques where you will uncover some Polynesian treasures and souvenirs. This afternoon we welcome you to a guided island land tour. This tour will leave from our adjacent pier and circumnavigate the largest island of Huahine Nui. You will visit a vanilla plantation, the Maeva Marae archaeological site, famous blue eyed eels and unique stone fish traps still in use by locals before photos at Belvedere lookout while on the way back to the ship, in time for a cold drink and canapés on deck at sunset. A local island choir comes onboard to charm us with their traditional music and songs before dinner is served under the stars.
Thursday - Huahine to Taha'a
Today is the beginning of 3 glorious beach days. We depart Huahine around 1000 for the short 20-mile passage to Taha'a eastern reef. Lunch will be served underway inside the reef as we circumnavigate the northern shores of this amazing region. Motu's everywhere, turquoise water- this is the place to swim, kayak, paddleboard and snorkel or have one of the crew to help you explore by tender. No organised tours here- just unbelievable unspoilt beauty. Today could be a sunscreen and Hinano Tahitian beer day! We will overnight on anchor at Tapu Amu. The setting is special with the reef in the foreground and the towering peaks of Bora Bora in the distance. The fishing is spectacular in this lagoon if you wish to join a fishing team off the aft deck after dinner.
Friday - Taha'a to Bora Bora
Welcome to Paradise. After a 3-hour journey we enter the Bora Bora lagoon at Vaitape. You are welcome to come up to the bridge before breakfast, when the sun rises over the Pacific Ocean, as we make our way through the entrance in the reef. Either have lunch on board or catch le truck for 900cfp and go to Bloody Mary's Bar for an experience of a lifetime. Sand floors and a history that stretches back 30 years and an experience you will enjoy. If you wish we will tender you to a motu with drinks and equipment for more sun and swimming. Tonight is the Captains dinner from 6:00pm.
Saturday - Bora Bora
After breakfast the tenders will run to our white sand beach at Tevairoa (large motu) for more water activities. Later in the morning the ship will depart for the east lagoon where using the ships' landing craft we will explore the eastern lagoon -home to all the exclusive resorts. We will return to Tevairoa for our final night BBQ dinner and local show on the island. This could be the last night of active festivities.
Sunday - Bora Bora
Oh my dear - where did the week go. Breakfast is served on deck before the tenders transfer guests to Vaitape Ferry terminal at 0930 for some last minute shopping. From here you have a ferry transfer to either the airport or to one of the resorts if you are staying longer in paradise.
Guests will be met at Vaitape wharf (Bora Bora) at 4:30pm by Island Escape crew for tender-transfer to ship
The ferry transfer from Bora Bora airport to Vaitape wharf on Bora Bora island is included as part of the domestic Air Tahiti flight ticket
On last morning of cruise, tender transfers will be provided to Vaitape wharf after breakfast to meet ferry for departure flight

Baylor alums' support of students goes beyond scholarships to — dental work?
About 90% of Baylor students receive some form of financial assistance. For many, that prompts a desire to pay forward the assistance they received, to help future students enjoy the same Baylor experience they did.
Marshall Hooper, BBA '06, is one such example. Here's his story, in his own words:
"I was able to finish my degree at Baylor thanks to the Getterman Endowment Scholarship. It's because of this generous gift that I am where I am today. And their contributions to my life didn't just stop at my education. During a recognition dinner, Mrs. Getterman noticed that I was not eating my steak. I mentioned that I needed to have my wisdom teeth pulled and that it was hurting me that night. I said that this was one of the first things I planned on doing once I graduated and was making money.
"The next morning, I received a phone call from a local dentist's office asking me what time I'd like to make an appointment. I said, 'For what? I don't even have insurance.' The lady responded, 'To have your wisdom teeth pulled. Mrs. Getterman called this morning and said we needed to schedule you an appointment immediately. She is taking care of everything, so don't you worry about the insurance.' I made the appointment, and Mrs. Getterman even went as far as to pick me up for my surgery and take me home. To this day I still get a huge smile on my face when telling people about what Ted and Sue Getterman mean to me.
"These two amazing people instilled in me a desire to 'pay it forward,' whether it be through my time or my money. I pray that I can one day change someone else's life like the Gettermans have changed mine and countless others."
Hooper has started with a small gift; to join him in supporting scholarships, a particular department, athletics, or anything else at Baylor, visit baylor.edu/give.
Sic 'em, Mr. and Mrs. Getterman, and sic 'em, Marshall!
