It's been 64 years since Chicago picked a mayor without an incumbent running.
Voters headed to the polls Tuesday to make their choice among six candidates: Rahm Emanuel, Miguel del Valle, Carol Moseley Braun, Gery Chico, Patricia Van Pelt Watkins and William Walls, III, in the order they appear on the ballot.
|*Jump to Latest Updates
If one candidate gets more than 50 percent, he or she will win the race outright. If not, the top two vote getters will face off in an April election.
Emanuel currently is polling beyond 50 percent as the clear front-runner, but political analysts say that with around 10 percent of Chicagoans still undecided, the race could see a runoff.

Update 8:05 p.m. -- Carol Moseley Braun, the consensus black candidate, also loses badly.

Update 6:20 -- One Rahm Emanuel insider suggests "it will be close but no cigar" tonight - thinking it will be very tough to get 50 percent plus one. He adds "we may be pressed up against it - 48 or 49 percent.". However, another Emanuel insider believes a high lakefront turnout and a low turnout elsewhere will give Emanuel what he needs to avoid a runoff. That source says "he will just make it.".
Update 5:40 p.m. -- In a statement Del Valle says he's "VERY Upset" "I thought we were over this behavior" "it's remnants of the old machine" [Read More....]
Update 5:34 -- @3100 W. 40th street, Del Valle volunteers are leaving because they feel intimidated. Lawyers heading there now.
Update 5:30 -- Board of Elections Chief Langdon Neil speculates that voter turnout is sluggish because the Chicago electorate is fatigued. He says the lower turnout will make the margins that much closer. With closer margins, there is an extra emphasis on counting each and every vote.
Update 5:15 p.m. -- Commuter greeting Rahm Emanuel at El stop, "Congratulations, Mr. Mayor." Emanuel responsds, "Not yet." He'll be at Merchandise Mart this evening.
Update 5:15 p.m. -- Del Valle workers claim to our team that they have been threatened by police for handing out campaign literature in the 14th Ward. Communication manager says Edward Burke workers are nearby. Our reporters are working to confirm.
Update 5:00 p.m. -- Just two hours until the polls close. Have you cast your ballot yet?
Update: 4:45p.m. -- The story so far is about low voter turnout for the Chicago mayors race. The folks over at Huffington Post are hearing about staggeringly low levels in the 25th Ward. Ward Room is hearing similar stories.
Update 3 p.m. -- Readers writing in to say polling places still look pretty vacant.
Update 2:35 p.m. -- Aldermanic candidate Che "Rhymefest" Smith says politics is a lot like music: you have to reach as many people as possible and market what you do well. [Watch Video...]
Update 2:13 p.m. -- Want to hang out with the big four candidates tonight? Here's where they're expected to be: Del Valle at Revolution Brewing, 2323 N. Milwaukee Ave.; Emanuel at Stephen M. Bailey Auditorium, 1340 W. Washington Blvd.; Chico at Westin Chicago River North, 320 N. Dearborn Ave.; Moseley Braun at Parkway Ballroom, 4455 South King Drive.
Update 2:07 p.m. -- Looks like some interesting parking scenarios in the 47th ward.
Update 1:30 p.m. -- One polling spot improvising after an elevator broke at 2505 East 79th St. broke, the Tribune reports. Judges have been going downstairs to help senior voters who can't get upstairs.
Update 1:24 p.m. -- Emanuel's "war room" in a South Loop ofice building is the candidate's nerve center on Election Day. Staffers are in constant motion, the lead team set up in a conference room with cell phones and laptops ready. They are trained at scanning voting trends and predicting how the race is looking and where more volunteers are needed. Also sighted in the hallway is 13-year-old Zachariah Emanuel seemingly soaking in the political history.
Update 12:45 p.m. -- Miguel del Valle grabs lunch at Mellow Yellow in Hyde Park (he's having chili mac) when a woman sitting behind him says she's voting for him right after lunch. Tina Brown told NBC she's had a good feeling about Del Valle for the past couple of weeks, but seeing him today gave her a feeling. "I consider it a sign," Brown said. [Read more... Watch Video...]
Update 12:14 p.m. -- Emanuel makes lunchtime stops at Lou Mitchell's, Berghoff to meet and greet lunchers. For his own lunch, Emanuel heads to Manny's Deli for corned beef sammies. So far reports show low voter turnout. Could the morning snow and ice have affected the numbers?
Update noon -- A police report has been filed concerning a fight that allegedly broke out around 10:30 am at a polling place on the 5800 block of East Elston. Someone brought a basket into the polling place with a thank you note from a candidate. When a supporter of a rival candidate complained about the basket, an argument ensued and a punch was thrown.
Update 11 a.m. -- One of the Board of Elections' 169 reported electioneering complaints, 727 equipment issues, 383 poll worker or judge issues, and 195 supply issues, according to The Chicago Tribune, included Ald. Rey Colon (35th Ward) delivering coffee emblazoned with his name to every precinct in the ward. His name was ordered to be removed. Another incident involved a pastor who overslept and opened New Heritage Cathedral at 5848 S. Princeton Ave. 50 minutes late.
Update 10:40 a.m. -- Chico is voter No. 46 at his polling place. Pretty light turnout so far.
Update 10:10 a.m. -- Emanuel shows up to a brief meeting with volunteers, Dunkin' Donuts in hand. "The thing that gives me the strength to keep going is love people have for this city," Emanuel says during the 10-minute visit. He tells volunteers they haven't won anything yet.
Update 9:30 a.m. -- Election officials in Chicago's 24th precinct attempt to bar the news media from access at Gery Chico's polling place, in direct violation of Election Board policy. Even after reporters and cameras were granted access, investigators circulated, demanding credentials and other documentation.
Update 7:50 a.m. -- Rahm Emanuel is stationed at a Red Line El stop with his daughters and son. Most commuters stop to shake his hand and even his daughters' hands. A few people take photos with him and wait to talk with him.
Update 6 a.m. -- Polls open. A couple voters arrive right away. Chicago Election Board Chairman Langdon D. Neal tells NBC 5 he doesn't think weather will affect voter turnout. "This is a pretty perfect day for voting as far as I'm concerned," Neal said. "No excuses there, we expect our voters to be out and strong today."

I really enjoy this site. The wonderful photos I see here never cease to amaze, and inspire me. I look forward to reading the comments on my photos. I am inordinately pleased when I am awarded an Approvers Choice. I use Nikon equipment and am especially fond of macro photography. I continue to be astounded by the beauty in the miniature world visible though my lens. Additionally, I rarely have to venture very far to find interesting subjects.The Henry Doorly zoo is my favorite location. If you get to Omaha Nebraska. I highly recommend you spend some time at the zoo with your camera. Larry

Vox, in north salem has conflicting information on their website about being open for lunch. I know the last time i checked they weren't open, but yesterday i noticed that although their home page said they weren't, their "contact" page said they were for the fall. I even made reservations at open table. Well, they're not. ... the guy i talked to who was unloading a truck when we arrived said that they may start being open for lunch in a few weeks
Ended up in south salem and had a great lunch at L'europe. (worth stopping in even if it's just for the souffle!!!).

Happy feast of the Immaculate Conception! A truly grand solemnity, indeed! This day is quite special to Kevin and I for many reasons, not the least of which being that it's simply a wonderful day to honor our lady! I'll admit, we indulged a bit this morning and woke up early to watch an episode of Parks and Rec. Hey, we all celebrate differently. We look forward to Mass this evening followed by a nice reception with the Oblates of the Virgin Mary.
This past weekend was very full, but really a joy. I'm so grateful for the drastic separation from work life and home life. Work has been hard, but my time at home and with friends has been absolutely life-giving. Saturday I was able to spend time with my good friend and her husband beginning with confession (I'll always take a free ride to the church). Then we enjoyed the afternoon at their apartment decorating and making it festive. It was so much fun and very relaxing. Exactly what I needed.
Afterwards, I met up with Kevin and we went to dinner with a friend's parents. This friend is a seminarian in Rome studying for the Boston diocese, and his parents and I have developed a great relationship over the past couple years (they even came to my wedding in May when he couldn't!). So we decided to get dinner (which was a blast) and go to the Festival of Lessons & Carols at the seminary here. They hadn't been around the sem much since their son had been asked to go to Rome, so it was real treat for them as well.
The concert is my favorite festive thing to do during Advent. Kevin and I have gone the past three years now, and it truly helps us delve deeper into the season. It's a night of scripture, carols, and hymns put on by the seminarians and they always sound amazing. This year was no exception.
Sunday we went to Mass followed by a morning of homemade waffles with two good friends! And the rest of our day was spent with just the two of us walking, resting, andddd watching the Chronicles of Narnia…a movie that we find most appropriate for this time of year.
I'm very grateful for the beautiful moments that were had. May this week be full of many more!

Political change was in the air in Zambia during 2011. Michael Sata, popularly known as "King Cobra" and the flag bearer of the Patriotic Front (PF), came from behind with 42% of the votes to win the September 20 presidential election. His surprise victory ended two decades of rule by the Movement for Multiparty Democracy (MMD), headed since 2008 by Rupiah Banda, who received 36% of the vote. Although Banda briefly toyed with the idea of ignoring the results and declaring himself the victor, he quickly yielded to persuasion from his advisers, electoral officials, founding president Kenneth Kaunda, and key diplomats to accept the results and ensure a peaceful transition of power. Banda's concession of defeat ended two days of violent demonstrations by voters who were frustrated by the slow release of electoral results and feared that the MMD had interfered with balloting in the main towns of the Copperbelt and the capital, Lusaka.
As president, Sata faced the difficult task of implementing his campaign promises: creating new employment opportunities; raising workers' wages, especially those of miners; and curtailing rampant corruption. His constituency included 1.3 million mostly young people who had voted for the first time, composing 24.5% of the electorate. Although the new president promised to start actualizing his policies within 90 days of taking office, the PF did not have a clear majority in the National Assembly and had to build alliances with other parties to obtain approval of fiscal budgets and other legislation. Of crucial importance was economic policy related to Chinese investment and trade, especially in the mining sector.
Guy Scott, a Zambian of European descent, was appointed vice president, becoming the highest-ranking white politician in sub-Saharan Africa. The new cabinet included a number of politicians from previous regimes, raising questions concerning Sata's prospects for genuine reform; however, he did initiate a tough anticorruption campaign. In October he dismissed many senior officials, including the heads of the armed forces, the police, the Anti-Corruption Commission, and other key agencies. In addition, investigations into existing government contracts were announced.
Late in October an outbreak of strikes took place in both foreign and locally owned businesses, including the state-owned power utility, Zesco, and the Chinese-owned Chambishi copper mine. Worker demands included higher wages and better conditions. Employers first capitulated to government pressure to meet these demands but reneged. Then, on November 1, they agreed to enter a two-month negotiation period.
Disgraced former president Frederick Chiluba died on June 18. Although he was convicted by a British court of stealing $46 million from Zambian government coffers, he was acquitted of this charge at home.

I don't know a whole lot of men who would mind being stalked by Mena Suvari, but Lifetime has cast her in just such a role. Suvari is attached to the backdoor pilot Stalkers as a woman obsessed with her ex-lover who takes her unrequited love to extremes.
Stalkers is based on the book Whisper of Fear: The True Story of the Prosecutor who Stalks the Stalkers by Rhonda Saunders. It will be a two-hour TV movie leading into a potential series for the network. The story focuses on Diane Harper, a hot-headed cop with problems in her past, played by Drea de Matteo (The Sopranos) and a put-together district attorney, Julia Whitman, played by Jodi Lyn O'Keefe (Prison Break). The two work together to catch and bring to justice Suvari's character, and from what it sounds like, more such stalkers in the future.
Suvari, best known for films like American Beauty and American Pie, seems to have been looking for a television role; she joined the NBC comedy project Happy Valley at NBC last season, but that one didn't move forward in the end. This doesn't sound like it would be a long-term role for Suvari if I am getting the premise right. She will more likely be the first of a series of stalkers that the two main characters turn the tables on if things go well with the backdoor pilot.
In addition to Suvari, Stalkers has added Henry Simmons of NYPD Blue to play Harper's partner, Cliff, who doesn't initially care for her way of doing things. THR says the script is being written by Last Resort writer David Wiener and executive produced by Craig Piligian who is best known for reality shows like Dirty Jobs and American Chopper.

The committee on Credentials reported
the presence of 'delegates froin -twelve
county Societies.
The President, Dr., Warder, then read
his annual address He 'J-elerred ' to the
change of the Society from the Ohio Pom
ologies! Society to that of the Ohio State
Horticultural Society. He urges an ex
tended and thorough investigation of the
orchard, tbe garden, the vineyard, the
truck patch" and the. lawn, believing that
as these investigations are extended, new la
borers will be found to aid in the new la
bor?. He showed that gardening will pay be
yond any other investment that may be
made. The season has been an excellent
one for most ot our horticultural produc
tions in this State, except the grape, which
did not ripen as well as last year. In some
sections the apple crop has. been a total
failure.' In others, tbe peach and- plum
crops failed. -.

N. Obmer, of the Ad Interim eotnmittee, re
ported on the various fruits cultivater'.

From these reports a very animated dis
cussion grew upon the growth andcultoie
of the grape. Mr. Bateham stated that he
was satisfied that east of Collamer Ridte
the Catawbaa were not worth planting.
Mr. Elliott said that the Catawba would
not "grow on light, sandy lands,. but on
strong dav lands tbe Catawba has no rqual.

Mr. WILSON, while denouncing John

Mr. CAMEKON renewed it.
Mr. MORTON was surprised at the mo

Wow..Romeo grew up to be quite a cutie! And he's already doing then times better than his dad.
Loads of potiential and I'm looking forward to seeing more! He will have to just get over looking "cool" and loosen up!

'Free at last'
The soldiers and Jesse Jackson as they arrived in Croatia
Three captured US soldiers released by President Slobodan Milosevic have arrived in Germany for medical checks and a military debriefing.
Relatives and friends of the soldiers are expected to arrive at the base for an emotional reunion on Monday.
The soldiers were handed over earlier on Sunday to American civil rights campaigner Jesse Jackson, who visited Belgrade to make a personal plea for their freedom to the president.
In other developments, Nato has admitted losing two warplanes and accidentally attacking a bus carrying civilian passengers, with heavy loss of life.
President Bill Clinton said: "As we welcome our soldiers home, our thoughts also turn to the over one million Kosovars who are unable to go home."
Staff Sergeant Christopher Stone, Staff Sergeant Andrew Ramirez, and Specialist Corporal Steven Gonzales were captured by Serb forces on 31 March on the Yugoslav-Macedonia border.
Road to freedom
On Sunday, after 32 days captivity and still wearing their combat fatigues, they left Yugoslavia.
As they walked across the border into Croatia, they sang: "Free at last, free at last, thank God Almighty, free at last!"
During an impromptu press conference on the border they said they had already had their first taste of home - a drink of Coca Cola.
The men said that they were not mistreated during their time in captivity. They added that injuries, seen by the world when the men were paraded on Serb televison, were received during their capture and not afterwards.
Message home
Shortly after the men were officially handed over to Rev Jackson each of them used his mobile phone to ring relatives.
Rosie Gonzales, mother of one of the men, said: "I thank him [Jesse Jackson] from the bottom of my heart because he said he was determined to go there."
Yugoslav news agency Tanjug reported on Saturay: "The president took the decision in support of Jesse Jackson's peace efforts.
Mr Clinton is expected to see both Rev Jackson and the Russian special envoy for the Balkans Viktor Chernomyrdin on Monday.
The civil rights leader will deliver a letter from the Yugoslav president to Mr Clinton, which is said to offer a face-to-face meeting between the two presidents.
But Rev Jackson's call for a night of peace to mark the release was not heeded by Nato, which carried out a further night of attacks.

Nato officials have welcomed the release, which came just hours after the alliance lost its second plane of the conflict.
Two planes lost
The F-16 crashed over western Serbia during an overnight raid.

Nato officials have welcomed the release, which came just hours after the alliance lost its second plane of the conflict.
Two planes lost
The F-16 crashed over western Serbia during an overnight raid.
The pilot was rescued by allied forces after he ejected in an area near the Croatian border.
A few hours after the crash, Nato admitted losing another plane - this time an American Harrier. It was said to have crashed in the Adriatic while on a training mission. The pilot was rescued.
The F-16 is the second warplane Nato has acknowledged losing over Yugoslavia since it began its air attacks more than six weeks ago. The first was an F-117 Stealth fighter on 27 March.
Nato has also admitted that one of its aircraft attacked a bridge in Kosovo and hit a civilian bus carrying dozens of passengers.
The statement says "unfortunately, after weapon release a bus crossed the bridge".
The bus, on a regular passsenger service between Pristina and Nis, was cut in two by a missile as it approached a bridge near Luzane, 20km (12 miles) north of Pristina.
One section plunged off the bridge. Passengers' belongings were strewn along the road and riverside.
Tanjug reported that an ambulance sent to the scene was hit in a second Nato strike. Nato says it has no information about this, and is still investating the incident.
On the diplomatic front, a US Congressional delegation says it has secured agreement with a team of senior Russian lawmakers and an adviser to President Milosevic on a framework for resolving the Kosovo crisis.
Congressman Curt Weldon says the plan complies with Nato's conditions for stopping Operation Allied Force but also takes into account Russian and Serbian concerns.

Alumnus Max Suchan'11 just graduated, but he's not content to relax for the summer. Far from it. On Sunday the sociology major headed to Europe, to prepare to take part in Gaza Freedom Flotilla initiative. Later this month, Suchan plans to board a ship in Greece called the Audacity of Hope, part of a flotilla meant to break through the Israeli navy's nautical blockade of the Gaza area of Palestine.
He and several hundred other activists plan on making the trip.
"I think there's a moral imperative to act," he says in a video interview with Freedom Flotilla 2—Stay Human, the activist group organizing the effort. In an interview with a CBS affiliate in Chicago, he called the Israeli blockade of Gaza "illegal under international law."
The planned blockade-breaking comes just a year after nine Turkish activists were killed by Israeli forces while attempting a similar demonstration. Suchan says he's aware of the risk.
"While there are risks, these are risks that the people of Palestine undertake every single day," he says in an interview. "True solidarity means that we must also be willing to take risks."

Do You Suffer from Hemorrhoids and Nothing Else Seems to Work?
Cure your hemorrhoids at home.
Gain quick relief in as little as 12 Hours!
Cure your hemorrhoids permanently without drugs or risky surgery.
Discover a highly unique and powerful hemorrhoids healing system, which very few people even know exists...
You Can Ride Your Bicycle Again As Soon As Tomorrow!
There are many treatments available from creams to surgery, but amazingly most people fail to realize the simple truth about hemorrhoids. I recommend you read the following section and then click on the red link to discover the most powerful hemorrhoids healing system that will teach you how to cure your hemorrhoids permanently, within 8 weeks. I suffered a lot from hemorrhoids during my pregnancy and it is the only thing that really worked for me. Hemorrhoids No More!
Are you having discomfort? Itching, irritation, and swelling could be the culprit. This makes it nearly impossible to be at ease and feel comfortable. Have you noticed blood in your stool? This is usually a sign you have ruptured a hemorrhoids surface. The blood is typically not a sign of anything serious but can feel scary. You may have sensitive or painful lumps. In some cases you could experience leakage of feces, a horrible experience for anyone suffering with hemorrhoids.
Hemorrhoids are typically a result of an increased pressure in the lower rectum that causes the veins in your anus to bulge or swell. Common causes are chronic constipation, straining with bowel movements, pregnancy, obesity, and anal intercourse. Aging can also be a factor due to the weakening and stretching of the muscle support of the veins in the rectum region.
Unfortunately yes. Dealing with these painful side effects has probably added stress to your life already. Hemorrhoids sufferers also deal with embarrassment and find social activities discomforting. In rare instances hemorrhoids can cause anemia. Only occurring as a result of chronic blood loss from the hemorrhoid. Another rare possibility is a strangulated hemorrhoid. This is when an internal hemorrhoids blood supply is cut off causing extreme pain and tissue death. Either instance is unlikely but unfortunately you will experience the other uncomfortable effects.
Avoid surgical procedures if it is not absolutely necessary, or treatments carrying risky side effects. It is hassle enough to endure the persistent issues that come with having hemorrhoids. Prevention is your best option, ward off hemorrhoids and ease symptoms with some nutritional tips. Eat foods rich in fiber, fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. These foods help keep stools soft and regular, reducing strain. Stay hydrated, drink 6-8 glasses of water or other hydrating liquid daily.
Exercise, activity can reduce the pressure caused from sitting or standing to long and help shed some pounds if weight is a contributing factor for you. Go to the restroom as soon as you feel the urge, waiting can cause hardening of the stool. No straining!
Consider fiber supplements if you find you are not getting 25-35 grams a day. Over the counter supplements can reduce nagging symptoms and the bleeding resulting from hemorrhoids. If you are wondering how to get rid of hemorrhoids when you are past the point of preventing, there are some natural treatments available. You can apply pads soaked in witch hazel. Keep the area dry and clean. Wash daily with warm water. Wash gently and avoid soap in the area. Soak in a warm bath or use a sit bath. Use toilet paper that is wet or wipes that do not contain alcohol or perfumes. Topical cream is also available. Hopefully you gained enough knowledge of how to get rid of hemorrhoids to provide the much needed relief and comfort you deserve.

Hy, here is my website http://www.worldwidetuts.com and i have problems with the main slidershow to make it work as in your default preview theme, i did word by word everything is wrote in documentation, but still doesn't appear in the mainpage, i also have problems with the images preview, because they doesn't seem to load, it remains only a white block in the middle, i already updated the jquery prettyphoto from here http://www.no-margin-for-errors.com/projects/prettyphoto-jquery-lightbox-clone/
what's wrong?February 25, 2011 at 10:17 am #41161
actually pretty photo is working now, but as you can see it gives the preview over the image, so i can't see the image well, why? i can delete the previews somehow?February 26, 2011 at 9:27 am #41162
Did this problem appear just after upgrading to WordPress 3.1 or before that as well?
Please disable any plugins you have active and let us know when this is done – often conflicts are caused by plugins, the main problem is we can't see which ones are active or more importantly the code being executed.
JamesFebruary 26, 2011 at 11:44 am #41163
Hy James, i have no plugins active actually, and i don't know if the problem would appear with an older version of wordpress, because when i installed the theme i already had the 3.1 version. i'm really out of ideas, and don't know what to do…February 26, 2011 at 1:42 pm #41164
No problem, I just wanted to check whether this was caused by WP 3.1 a plugin or a theme bug.
There are a number of issues with WP 3.1 breaking theme functionality so it's most likely not something you've done. We're looking into fixes and there will probably be updates to the themes available shortly.
JamesFebruary 26, 2011 at 2:30 pm #41165
so i shall just wait… ok let's hope it won't take long! thanks and good luck updating all the issues! oh for information, maybe you need to know it, my hosting provider is http://www.ipage.com . hope to hear you soon!February 27, 2011 at 1:51 am #41166
For info:
I uninstalled everything, then i installed wordpress 3.0 then i installed the theme, after that, i made 3 different posts, every single post had an image inserted through the : insert image as an additional Featured Image. but still with that i can't make my aviaslider to work? what's wrong? at this point i don't think it's wordpress new version, since now i have the 3.0 version… what's the matter?February 28, 2011 at 7:32 am #41167
to make the slider work you need to add more than one image to every post/page. Click on the small plus symbol in the featured image section and you can add another image. If you need help send me your login details to: (Email address hidden if logged out)February 28, 2011 at 1:54 pm #41168
oh great!!! i missed that part! it wasn't very clear on the documentation about this, another last thing! if i put images of other posts in the last post and i want to link that image to another post, how should i link it?March 1, 2011 at 11:25 am #41169
Sorry about the confusing / missing documentation.
I don't believe there's an easy way to point the link to another post at least not without modifying the theme to do so. The only options built in are to either have the image open in a lightbox or link to the post.
If you need to hire someone to help you modify the theme, there's a topic over on Theme Forest about this: http://themeforest.net/forums/thread/ (Purchase code hidden if logged out) – (Purchase code hidden if logged out) -to-make-some-money/24795
The topic 'Mainpage slidershow doesn't show' is closed to new replies.

Another from the archives of 2004. This was taken during a weekend workshop down in Morro Bay. I never processed the image when I took it. Now, I like it after applying the Orton technique to reduce the weird noise pattern introduced by the fog.

text: I have been unable to find any information on this topic, so I look to more experienced people. I've seen a good bit of information on the signs of overpressure on cartridges, such as the flattening of the primer, etc. What about when a round doesn't have as much pressure as it should? I ask because I was shooting some reloaded 9mm and noticed that there was some soot on the outside of the brass near the case mouth, almost as if the case wasn't expanding fully in the chamber. The rounds were loaded with Hodgdon Universal to the minimum powder amount and did cycle the slide, but sometimes the slide wouldn't stay open on the last shot. These are the reasons that lead me to think that my rounds may be a little underpowered. Any suggestions, remarks, or comments?

I highly recommend unlock unit for your unlocking needs. I got my Samsung Galaxy Nexus from my dad in Australia, but when I got back to South Africa I noticed that it was sim locked.
I contact unlock unit to get an unlock code, but was inially unsuccessful as no codes could be found in the Samsung Australia database.
They then took the initiative to find where the phone was locked to, and tracked it to Canada.
Unlock unit did not stop until they got my code. Happy customer

Four Little Girls: Birmingham 1963 A Nationwide Staged Reading

Performance at a Glance:
Four Little Girls: Birmingham 1963: A Nationwide Staged Reading
By Christina Ham
Directed by Tara Kromer and Sara Brunow
September 15th, 2013 at 6pm
Studio 1 in the UCF Performing Arts Center
FREE and open to the public (UCF Parking Regulations apply)
Students from the University of Central Florida's School of Performing Arts join the Kennedy Center and venues across the country in presenting a reading of Four Little Girls: Birmingham 1963.
Written by playwright Christina Ham, these readings commemorate the precise 50th anniversary of the 1963 bombing that took the lives of four young girls at the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Alabama.
Every child imagines what they want to be when they grow up. The four little girls who attended the 16th Street Baptist Church were no exception. Four Little Girls: Birmingham 1963 centers on Denise McNair, Carole Robertson, Cynthia Wesley, and Addie Mae Collins, four little girls who are multi-talented and bursting with promise and who share their hopes and dreams against the backdrop of the civil rights movement. While Denise dreams of becoming a doctor, Carole looks forward to the dress she will one day wear at the cotillion, Cynthia imagines her life as a mathematics professor at the local university, and Addie Mae envisions a life as a professional baseball player. The realities of the segregated political climate that will put a stop to these dreams swirl around them and eventually culminate in the fateful events of September 15, 1963. This play examines what it is like to be a child in the most extreme circumstances.

The 384-hole heater provides critical temperature uniformity across a 384 well Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) sample block. This proprietary technology enables extremely tight hole-to-hole tolerance allowing for near perfect registration of the 384-hole heater to a PCR sample block. The seamless fit of the heater provides superior heat transfer critical to fast temperature cycling environments. It also enables an unobstructed view of the reaction process because heating components (that are typically large) are eliminated.

OMAHA, Neb. ConAgra has announced that it will put a significant amount of marketing dollars behind its Banquet brand of frozen dinners. The advertising blast begins this week with a brand-new voice boasting the brand's merits—that of country music star Lee Ann Womack.
ConAgra said it is pushing Banquet's line of healthy frozen meal options, Banquet Select Recipes, which come in seven varieties including an enchilada combo meal and chicken parmesan dinner. These dinners retail for $1.50 each.
The company has also said that the new push is in response to declining numbers for the Banquet brand, a brand name company officials admit has not been advertised much in about a decade. Part of the company's plan to revamp the image of the Banquet line is to give it a makeover to appeal to its country-music-loving-mom core demographic.
According to numbers from Nielsen Monitor-Plus, ConAgra has spent $200,000 on marketing its Banquet brand in the first half of 2008 compared to about $6 million spent on the brand last year.

My search for the best KDE Linux distribution
As some of you already know, I am a big fan of the KDE desktop environment. In my search to reach Linux KDE perfection I have tested out a number of different distributions. Now that I have tried out quite a few of the most popular distributions I figured I would write a little bit to tell you fine people my thoughts on each:
* Fedora 11
KDE Version: 4.2 – 4.3
Pros: very secure, not too many modifications of the KDE source, cutting edge
Cons: could have really used some more modifications of the base KDE packages in order to better integrate GTK+, Bluetooth problems, not always stable
I have written at length about my experiences with Fedora during this experiment. Without re-writing everything again here let me simply say this: Fedora is primarily a GNOME distribution and I could never shake the feeling that KDE got the left-over treatment.
* Kubuntu

WASHINGTON (AP) - Venerable, silver-haired Sen. Robert C. Byrd stood before Democrats and Republicans, urging them to take stock of their place in history and reminding them that great statesmen of the past did not cling stubbornly to partisan positions.
"He set the tenor for what we have achieved," said Sen. Phil Gramm, R-Texas.
After more than two hours, two senators of widely disparate philosophy - conservative Gramm and Democrat Edward M. Kennedy of Massachusetts - suggested a way to resolve the knotty problem of how to run the impeachment trial of President Clinton. Cries of "hear, hear!" greeted the compromise plan fashioned in secret in the Old Senate Chamber.
"It was an extraordinary event that we just took part in," said Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz.
Shorn of microphones, sitting on folding chairs and with no television cameras watching, the 100 senators and a few senior staffers met Friday morning in a last-ditch effort to avoid highly partisan votes on trial plans.
"Not having the modern conveniences reminded us of where we were," said Sen. Fred Thompson, R-Tenn.
The intimate room, rarely used by the Senate since 1859, is where American giants like Henry Clay, Daniel Webster and John C. Calhoun conducted titanic debates over slavery and states' rights in an attempt to avert the Civil War.
A large portrait of George Washington gazes down from the wall; a gilt eagle and a shield adorn the Senate president's desk.
"There was a palpable sense in that room of the magnitude of these events and their importance to the nation," said Sen. Kent Conrad, D-N.D. "You had the feeling there of the weight of history."
Following a prayer focused on "love of country, love of the institution" by Democratic Sen. Daniel Akaka of Hawaii that moistened a few eyes, Byrd spent about 20 minutes reminding senators of the dignity of their jobs, discussed the meaning of the Federalist papers that serve as a bedrock of American democracy and recounted events of the 1868 impeachment trial of President Andrew Johnson, participants said.
Byrd told colleagues the White House had "sullied itself" and that the House had fallen into "the black pit of partisan self-indulgence," according to a transcript issued later by Byrd's staff.
"I ask everyone here who might harbor such feelings to abandon any thought of mean-spirited, destructive, vengeful, partisan warfare," Byrd said.
"I implore us all to lift our eyes to higher things. We can perform some much-needed healing on the body politic."
Majority Leader Trent Lott, R-Miss., suggested the deal be labeled the Gramm-Kennedy plan.
