Hoodz: Stop Snitchin Trailer (2005)
01 January 2005
This uncensored look at life in the projects travels to tough neighborhoods in Atlanta, Boston, Brooklyn, Chicago, Cincinnati, Houston, Miami and Mississippi to illustrate the meaning behind the "Stop Snitchin' Movement," a street code that's short for "Keep your mouth shut." Footage covers Atlanta top-gunner Young Jeezy and an explosive moment at a TI show, as well as the truth behind the feud between hip-hop stars TI and Lil' Flip.

Critics are saying that it trivializes the Holocaust, while supporters are backing it as a positive ceremony that remembers the genocidal horrors that unfolded decades ago. There's no shortage of debate surrounding "Miss Holocaust Survivor," a beauty pageant that was recently held for Holocaust survivors in Haifa, Israel. Yes, you read that right.
According to the Jewish Forward, 14 contestants ranging from 74-years-of-age to 97 participated in the festivities. These women, all survivors of Adolf Hitler's murderous rampage, participated in some of the more traditional pageant acts, like walking down a red carpet and getting dolled-up. However, they also tackled some more emotional ground, as they shared their plights during and following World War II.
The contest, part of Helping Hand's (a group that helps Holocaust survivors in need) annual "cultural" night, included a lavish dinner and music at a Haifa reception hall. Some 600 people attended, including two Cabinet ministers, Moshe Kahlon and Yossi Peled, himself a Holocaust survivor.
In the end, Romanian native Hava Hershkovitz, 78, won. The contestants were chosen from a pool of hundreds of applications, explains Shimon Sabag, the Director of Helping Hand who organized the event. The women were chosen based on their personal stories and the roles that they held in their communities in Israel.
Hershkovitz was banished from her home in Romania in 1941 and sent to a detention camp in the Soviet Union for three years. Today, she lives in an assisted living home run by Helping Hand. A four-judge panel consisting of three former beauty queens and a geriatric psychiatrist who specializes in treating Holocaust survivors chose the winner.
"This place is full of survivors. It puts us at the center of attention so people will care. It's not easy at this age to be in a beauty contest, but we're all doing it to show that we're still here," the silver-haired Hershkovitz said.
"I have the privilege to show the world that Hitler wanted to exterminate us and we are alive. We are also enjoying life. Thank God it's that way," added Esther Libber, a 74-year-old runner-up who fled her home in Poland as a child, hid in a forest and was rescued by a Polish woman. She said she lost her entire immediate family.
But at the center of the debate was the notion that judging women on the basis of physical appearance — individuals who had suffered so much at the hands of the Nazis — was inappropriate.
"It sounds totally macabre to me," said Colette Avital, chairwoman of Israel's leading Holocaust survivors' umbrella group. "I am in favor of enriching lives, but a one-time pageant masquerading (survivors) with beautiful clothes is not what is going to make their lives more meaningful."
Sabag, though, rejected the criticism, saying the winners were chosen based on their personal stories of survival and rebuilding their lives after the war, and physical beauty was only a tiny part of the competition.
"They feel good together. They are having a good time and laughing in the rehearsals," said Sabag. "The fact that so many wanted to participate proves that it's a good idea."

text: Hy, I tried to switch from dzen2 to xmobar as statusbar for my xmonad but ran into these three problems: 1. I want my Mailcount (how many new mails are there in my Maildir on my harddisk) to be displayed. How can I achieve this? Should I run a external program? Im searching for a solution which needs the less cpu (and io) as possible, as xmonad is running on my notebook. An external shellscript would do a big overhead, so is there a better solution? 2. I wanted to draw a progressbar (oder a rectangle) for the battery-status and the volume. How can this be done? 3. Is there a posilibity to draw icons like dzen2? I just wanted a green envelope for "no new mails" and a red one for "new mails". Is this posible? I know this might not be the right place to ask the question, but perhaps someone can help me.

The Post Office Having to go Through Bankruptcy?
The United States Postal Service that we all take for granted could be at risk of bankruptcy. With most written communication switching from letters to the Internet and more people going with UPS and Fedex the Postal Service is losing money. While the other shipping businesses are free to make any changes they deem necessary to keep their business going, the Postal Service is restricted in its options. Unlike many of the other government agencies the Postal Service doesn't receive any tax money to keep its operations afloat. They also have to set aside health benefits for their employees well in advance of retirement and they are restricted in their ability to close down offices that are performing poorly. All of these restrictions make it even more difficult to make a profit in this horrible economy.
With all of the financial difficulties that the Postal Service is facing they have no choice but to hike up their prices yet again. On top of the standard stamp price increase, they are also raising the price of their priority mail shipping and their overnight. Priority mail prices will be going up by around 3 percent and overnight shipping will be switched to a flat rate model of 40 dollars a package. The overnight shipping is up from a sliding plan that starts at 13 dollars a package and increases depending on the weight of the package. Even with the price hike the Postal Service will only gain a little headway and could face an eventual collapse without help from the government.

Evaluating Market Attractiveness: Individual Incentives Versus Industry Profitability
In this paper, we employ an agent-based industry simulation model to study the effects of the interplay between individual firms' market evaluation strategies on the extent of product innovations and overall industry development. In particular, we show that a homogenous industry consisting of companies with focus on historical profits yields high overall industry profits but is very unstable. The introduction of a single firm oriented towards market growth rather than profits is sufficient to trigger a severe drop in profits and a transformation towards an industry with strong market growth orientation and a large number of marketed product innovations. Furthermore, we show that the degree of horizontal differentiation of product innovations from existing products is of significant importance for the individual incentives to adopt market growth orientation and the effects of such a development on overall industry profits.

text: Proposed Patent Examiner Legal Training A principal responsibility of the Patent and Trademark Office (PTO) is to properly administer the patent laws. In this respect, it is imperative that PTO issue valid patents in a timely manner. To achieve this goal, PTO must recruit, train and retain a high caliber diverse workforce. By so doing, PTO helps ensure a high quality examination. The PTO currently provides about 200 hours of training to its new patent examiners on examination practice and procedures in its Patent Academy. In addition, the Patent Academy offers a wide range of additional training programs in technology, automation and patent law. However, much of this training is provided by in house staff using training materials developed internally. Moreover, examiners receive extensive on the job training on examination practices and procedures by their immediate supervisor in their respective patent examining groups. Additionally, a small number of patent examiners participate in the Law School Training Assistance Program (LSTAP) where examiners admitted into evening law school programs pursue Juris Doctor or other law degress, and have their tuition and books for job related courses paid for by the PTO. The PTO has held numerous customer focus sessions throughout the United States. A consistent message which PTO's customers have been sending is that PTO needs to raise the level of legal competency of the Patent Examining Corps. In an effort to provide examiners with more law school type legal training and to improve their legal competency, the PTO is considering establishing a Juris Masters (JM) Program for patent professionals. This JM Program would be offered to all non-lawyer examiners and non-law school students and would consist of courses in patent practice and procedures taught using law school style techniques during their first few years in the PTO. Courses conducted during Office hours would replace existing Patent Academy curricula and would focus principally on patent law practice and procedure. Additionally, other traditional law school courses would be part of an after hours curriculum. All of the courses would be taught on-site in the PTO Academy by professors from law schools, who would be providing these courses on a contract basis. The number of courses and credit hours offered would be about half the number required to receive a Juris Doctor degree. PTO would award a legal training proficiency certificate to examiners who successfully complete the JM program. Prior to PTO's preparing a statement of work for a request for proposals for law schools to respond to such a program, PTO requests comments from our customers and other members of the patent legal academic community on the JM Program. Those interested in presenting written comments on this subject may mail their comments to the Commissioner of Patents and Trademarks, Washington D.C. 20231, marked to the attention of Manuel A. Antonakas, Office of the Deputy Assitant Commissioner for Patent Policy and Projects, or send them by facsimile transmission to (703) 308-5481. Written comments should include the following information: -Name and affiliation of the individual responding; -An indication of whether comments offered represent views of the respondent's organization or are the respon- dent's personal views; and -If applicable, information on the respondent's organiza- tion, including the type of organization (e.g., business, trade group, university, non-profit organization).

SIR - The accusations that the farmers have brought the crises in the countryside on themselves is both obnoxious and naive in the extreme. Unlike the steel and coal industry, cited by Mr Simon, the farming industry is part of the food chain.
It provides a basic need of all of us. Ignore it and the result will be second-rate food from foreign abattoirs at higher costs.

NEW ORLEANS Three men entered, two faltered and one caught the heaviest bag thus far in the Bassmaster Classic on the Louisiana Delta.
There were actually more than a dozen anglers in the area, but when the top three anglers in the Classic are fishing within a cast of each other, it can feel like only three.
Day One leader Aaron Martens, second place Scott Rook and third place Kevin VanDam all called Lake Cataouatche home Friday and went back to try and duplicate their day on Saturday.
Rook had a fast start but only finished with 12 pounds, 5 ounces, which was more than 7 pounds off Friday's haul.
"I got in there and got the bites, but they were all 2-pounders," Rook said. "I don't think I caught a single 2-pounder on Friday."
Aaron Martens had an even worse day, catching only 12-11 and falling more than 8 pounds out of the lead.
"I was just missing fish," Martens said. "I made a switch late and caught a couple fish, but I should have made the switch earlier. I kept telling myself to do it; then I'd get hit hard by something. It was tough."
To make matters worse for Rook and Martens, they had to watch VanDam catch a bucket of 4-pound fish from a few yards away.
"We talked midway through the morning about how they were just slapping at the bait," Rook said. "He hadn't caught anything on a spinnerbait in two hours, so he ties on something else and, boom, 5-pounder. I say, 'Was that five?' and he says, 'No I think it was a little better.'
"Over the next hour, he proceeded to catch nine 4-pounders right in front of me."
Martens said watching VanDam haul in his 22-8 limit didn't affect him too much. He was more upset with himself for missing fish and not making the appropriate adjustments.
"I only get mad on the water when someone tries to push me off a spot," Martens said. "It's easy fishing with Kevin and Scott. I was mad at myself today."
Rook had a little more trouble getting past VanDam's success.
"I'm standing beside him, throwing the exact same bait, retrieving it the same way; he's pulling in 4-pounders and I'm pulling in 2-pounders," Rook said. "It's frustrating. You know you have to beat the best in the world, and there he is catching them."

Curious about the newer model? Check out the 2015 Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class
By Zach Vlasuk
KBB Expert Rating: 6.9
The 2012 GLK350 has some big shoes to fill as the junior member of the Mercedes-Benz SUV family. To the delight of its larger siblings – the Mercedes M-Class and GL-Class – the compact GLK offers the modern styling, upscale amenities and advanced safety features one should expect from a luxury vehicle. Developed on Mercedes-Benz's best-selling C-Class platform, the 2012 GLK combines the comfortable ride quality and enticing technology of the C with the versatility of a small SUV.
If you desire traditional SUV features, such as a spacious cargo area and an elevated seating position, but you want it in a smaller, more practical package, the 2012 Mercedes GLK is a good choice.
Those looking for a luxury SUV with sedan-like mpg might find the superior fuel economy of the Audi Q5 and Land Rover Evoque more appealing.
There are no significant changes slated for the 2012 GLK350 versus the 2011 model.
The GLK's well-balanced chassis and sharp suspension tuning provide enjoyable driving on curvy roads. On the highway, we found the GLK's well insulated cabin dissipates the majority of road noise,...
... even when equipped with the panoramic sunroof. The only engine choice is a 3.5-liter V6 that delivers ample power for typical daily driving, but lacks the crisp throttle response and fuel efficiency found in most modern V6 engines. The 7-speed automatic transmission provides silky smooth gear changes along with steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters for manual-style shifting. The electric power-steering system, however, offers an inordinately sensitive feel that requires constant supervision on the highway.
harman/kardon LOGIC7 audio system
This impressive audio system features impeccable sound quality with 11 speakers, including a subwoofer, Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound and 6GB of storage for your music.
COMAND multimedia controller
The 2012 Mercedes-Benz GLK's COMAND multimedia controller is conveniently located for simple operation of the audio, navigation and communication functions. Combined with the dash-mounted LCD screen, the COMAND interface allows for streamlined information retrieval to help keep your eyes off the LCD and on the road where they belong.
The GLK's interior architecture features a simplistic, yet elegant design with sharp lines and attentive ergonomics. Despite its entry-level price point (for the brand), the GLK's superb fit and finish and high-quality soft-touch materials uphold Mercedes-Benz's reputation for fine craftsmanship. The 5-passenger GLK350 features a 60/40 split rear seat and a generous, for its size, 54.7 cubic feet of cargo space. While the front seats are not as comfortable as its
Lexus RX and Audi Q5 challengers, they do feature 8-way adjustability and ample bolstering for spirited driving. Controlling the GLK's abundance of high-tech features is Mercedes-Benz's intuitive COMAND multimedia interface.
Complementing its stout, aggressive stance, the Mercedes-Benz GLK features strong character lines, angled wheel arches and a 2-bar chrome grille. Large windows combined with slender structural pillars provide exceptional outward visibility. The available AMG Styling Package adds aluminum roof rails and LED daytime running lights, and replaces the standard 19-inch wheels with massive 20-inch twin 5-spoke wheels. Despite its tall appearance, the 2012 GLK is as easy to step in and out of as a traditional sedan.
The GLK350 is the only 2012 Mercedes-Benz GLK version offered. Standard equipment includes roof rails, 19-inch alloy wheels, dual-zone climate control, Burl Walnut interior trim, MP3/WMA interface, 8-way power-adjustable front seats, and Bluetooth hands-free phone capability. Significant safety features include nine airbags, Neck Pro front headrests to help reduce the severity of whiplash injuries, hill-start assist to prevent unintended rollback on steep inclines, and an Automatic Brake Drying system for improved braking in moist conditions.
The 2012 GLK350 offers Mercedes-Benz's 4Matic all-wheel drive (AWD) system, aluminum interior trim, a panoramic roof, sonar proximity warning system for those difficult parking situations, Xenon headlights (up to three times brighter than conventional halogen headlights), an 11-speaker harman/kardon sound system, and conversational voice recognition software to wrangle multimedia commands.
Ten years ago, a 3.5-liter V6 pumping out 268 horsepower would have impressed most prospective buyers. However, with today's modern V6 power plants, 300-plus horsepower engines with admirable fuel economy are the norm. While the GLK's outdated V6 returns meager fuel economy, it does provide smooth power delivery and a quiet operation. Matched to the GLK350's lone engine choice is a 7-speed automatic transmission with Adaptive Logic technology that monitors your driving style and alters shift points accordingly.
3.5-liter V6
268 horsepower @ 6,000 rpm
258 lb-ft of torque @ 2,000-5,000 rpm
EPA city/highway fuel economy: 16/22 mpg (RWD), 16/21 mpg (AWD)

Making Sense of Your Relationships, Good and Bad
The Rev. Vanable H. Moody II, pastor of The Worship Center Christian Church in Bessemer, Alabama, and author of the new book, The People Factor, says it is time we do relationships right — at home, on the job and at church.
"Clearly, relationships can make the difference between a great life and a miserable existence," Moody writes in The People Factor: How Building Great Relationships and Ending Bad Ones Unlocks Your God-Given Purpose. "They can launch us into heights of excellence and achievement we never dreamed possible, or they can keep us down in the dumps, tethered to mediocrity for all of our days."
According to Moody, often referred to as Pastor Van, Christians cannot afford to take relationships lightly or for granted, as they are God's main mode of operation in the world. "Any and everything that God has ever done and will ever do in the world He does through people," he told The Christian Post.

WALKING ON THE SKY, 2009 / self-published
Book, Research and proposal for a public place
Keywords: QF-Theory of Newton, 1666 / Open system, Social science / Skylight, Window /
Union station, Public place, System design, Urban planning, Arnhem
> See the summary for presentation
This project reflects a system design of a public place, specifically, 'Union Station
in Chicago'. After researching the space, my intentions were to relieve some of the
complexities and indifferences among people within the station.
My strategies included analysis of the theory of Open System in social science,
QF-Theory of Newton in physics, and the principle of the Skylight. With these various
explorations I proposed an installation that consists of a set of 'screens' embedded
onto the floor, which will act as two prism spaces. On one screen (prism) will have a live
sky view of Chicago (specifically, of the sky above the station) and the other screen will
have a live image of various skies around the world. My hope is to have people interact
with the installation by moving through the two screens like white light similar to the
In the end, I wanted to create an experience where people walk into 'Union Station
in Chicago' and realize they are under one sky, but when exiting the station having
a different type of realization when approached by a different sky (another place
of the world). Therefore, hoping that manipulating the space just a little will help to
shift and unify people's expectations.

- 2013-02-21
RHBA-2013:0541 - Bug Fix Advisory
sanlock bug fix and enhancement update
Bug Fix Advisory
Updated sanlock packages that fix various bugs and add various enhancements
are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization.
The sanlock packages provide a shared storage lock manager. Hosts with
shared access to a block device or file can use sanlock to synchronize
their activities. VDSM and libvirt use sanlock to synchronize access to
virtual machine images.
These updated packages, originally made available for Red Hat Enterprise
Linux, also affect Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization.
The sanlock packages have been upgraded to upstream version 2.6, which
provides a number of bug fixes and enhancements over the previous version,
including the new io_timeout setting, which has been added to the lockspace
API. I/O timeouts can now be adjusted directly with sanlock. (BZ#843073)
This update fixes the following bugs:
- In certain cases, an internal sanlock race condition occurred between the
add_lockspace and rem_lockspace API. This made add_lockspace difficult to
use from applications where multiple threads could be adding the same
lockspace. With this update, it is possible for the threads to coordinate
the lockspace operations. As a result, the aforementioned error no longer
occurs. (BZ#830736)
- Prior to this update, the sanlock init script was not creating the
/var/lock/subsys/sanlock file. Consequently, the killall init script, which
uses such files to stop init services, did not terminate the sanlock
script. This bug has been fixed, and the /var/lock/subsys/sanlock file is
now properly created. (BZ#830848)
- Previously, the sanlock service ignored undefined UID and GID options,
which led to segmentation fault during the service startup. This bug has
been fixed, and the segmentation fault no longer occurs. (BZ#831906)
- Previously, the wdmd init script did not start the softdog module when no
watchdog device was loaded. Consequently, the wdmd and sanlock daemons
failed to start. The bug has been fixed, and softdog is now correctly
loaded in the described scenario. (BZ#832935)
- The sanlock inquire API was returning a lease version (lver) of "0"
instead of the real lver in the state string. Consequently, procedures like
migrate or suspend/resume failed to acquire a lease with an inquired
version. The bug has been fixed, and the correct lver number is now
returned by sanlock inquire. (BZ#840063)
- Prior to this update, the sanlock daemon acquired supplementary groups to
allow file access on NFS. Some NFS servers did not recognize these groups
and refused the file access. With this update, the sanlock daemon has been
modified to use the root helper process to kill the registered processes.
This update also adds the following enhancements:
- With this update, when the storage domain (lockspace) is unreachable, the
sanlock manager suspends affected processes instead of killing them. When
the host regains an access to lockspace, these processes are resumed.
- With this update, the sanlock package has been added to the vdsm
subchannel for supported usage in Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization. As a
result, sanlock is now being installed along with the vdsm package.
- The fence-sanlock subpackage has been added. It provides a fence agent,
that uses the sanlock and wdmd packages, along with the ability of wdmd to
run scripts as tests. (BZ#858964)
All users of sanlock are advised to upgrade to these updated packages,
which fix these bugs and add these enhancements.
Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to
use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at

Festival au Desert Caravan for Peace presents
Tartit with Imharhan, Mamadou Kelly
Kiran Ahluwalia
635 Sackett St
Brooklyn, NY, 11217
Doors 6:30 PM / Show 7:30 PM
This event is 21 and over
Tartit with Imharhan
Legends of Tuareg music, Tartit step straight out of the Sahara. With their traditional Instrumentation and repertoire, their music seems deceptively simple, but speaks directly to the issues of today seeking to preserve a culture under attack. Nothing is more evocative of the fascinating expanses of the Sahara desert than the music of Tartit. The band consists of five women and four men who, until the rebellion of 2012, lived in the Timbuktu region of Mali. Tartit begins by playing quiet, hypnotic, trance-inducing music: the women sit down, sing, and play cyclic rhythms on their tinde drums, while the men accompany them on string instruments, acoustic and electric.
The men are veiled here, the women are not. Tuareg society is one of the few throughout Africa in which women are allowed to choose (and divorce) their husbands. Nomads by tradition, the pressures of politics, modernization and climate change threaten the very existence of their world. One of the original groups to perform on the stage of the legendary Festival au Desert in Mali, Tartit were one of the last to perform as the 2012 edition ended two days before chaos descended into their desert. Now refugees in neighboring Burkina Faso the group is a beacon to the Tuareg people around the world.
Tartit's music has reached out and embraced the 21st century. During their program electric instruments begin to appear in the mix; slowly the force grows of celebration and joy. The group morphs into the phenomenal configuration that they call Imharhan. This sound profile harks to the many experiments and collaborations with which the group members have been involved, moving their Tuareg desert blues to fresh coordinates.
With their own Wikipedia page and many youtube videos, Tartit has become known worldwide. They have released two ablums and are planning a 2013 release. The iconic group is led by Fadimata Walet Oumar, known as Disco. The whole family joins in to the music. It is her brother, Mohamed Issa, who leads when Imharhan emerge into the swirling rhythms. Popular at celebrations throughout the Tuareg world, Tartit along with Imharhan now represent their culture in crisis.
Tartit have toured Europe and America on their own and as part of Desert Blues alongside Afel Bocoum & Habib Koite. They performed most recently at Festival Taragalte in M'Hamid Morocco at the close of 2012. Their performances demonstrate the enduring strength of indigenous cultures around the world.
Mamadou Kelly
From Niafunke, the heart of the Malian delta blues, guitar genius and subtle vocal stylist, Mamadou Kelly has been an integral part of two of the most famous groups in Malian music, Afel Bocoum's Alkibar and also Ali Farka Toure's backup band. He has played guitar and performed with these two greats on many of their tours and albums. He is the solid glue that holds the music together. Nothing short of a virtuoso on the acoustic guitar, Mamadou has an encyclopedic knowledge of the music of Mali. He represents a new sophistication in the sound of Niafunke.
Forced to flee Niafunke for Bamako after the occupation of northern Mali in 2012 and the imposition of sharia that banned music in his home town, Mamadou continues to develop his career. Having toured extensively as a side-man, he is now ready to step into the center spotlight and present his own music to the world. Supported by his brother, Hama, a respected genius on the calabash who is also heard on many recordings from Mali, and their longtime collaborator, monochord master Youro, their music represents the best and most captivating combination of traditional and contemporary West Africa imaginable. His vocals display a smooth sophistication demonstrating the high level of his art.
Mamadou can be heard on many recordings from Mali and appears in many videos. He continues to record in the studio and is putting together a new solo album for a 2013 release. His charm belies a determined professional. His song style is direct, deceptively simple and yet highly sophisticated. A rich historical background supports the composition and delivery. Without skipping a beat, Mamadou is able to bring a gracious hospitality to his music and to the concert stage.
In two of the videos below, Mamadou Kelly can be seen in the group backing Afel Bocoum. Do not let the size of the crowd in front of the festival stage fool you. It is early afternoon in rural Holland. The other video is a tribute by Alkibar to Ali Farka Toure.
Expressing her muse through ghazals and Punjabi folk songs, Award winning, Indian singer, Kiran Ahluwalia explores the language of the heart with beautiful artistry and smoldering intensity. Her enchanting and seductive music has garnered glowing praise from critics around the world; "Her's is "a voice destined to enchant more than one generation" (fROOTS). But most of all, Kiran Ahluwalia is a unique and inspiring performer and composer, who's legion of fans continues to grow with every captivating performance.
With each successive recording, Kiran has moved ever onward from her own musical upbringing, reaching well beyond her extensive training in the genres of traditional ghazal and Punjabi folk music and shaping a style completely her own. On her latest CD, Aam Zameen - Common Ground Kiran successfully merges her contemporary Indian song with Saharan desert blues.
On stage, Kiran is accompanied by a stellar group of musicians: cutting edge NYC guitarist, Rez Abbasi, rising tabla star, Nitin Mitta, hard grooving bassist, Nikku Nayar and superbly melodic harmonium player, Kiran Thakrar. Together, they are one of North America's most exciting and creative world music groups.
"Her crystal clear voice arched superbly above rhythms that coursed through the audience...an evening of fascinating, newly revealed music." - Los Angeles Times
"A rising international star."—Village Voice
"Her soaring and unforgettably haunting vocals reveal her to be one of today's most popular exponents of the fine art of creating hybrid musical styles that become almost signature in the ear of the beholder." Calgary Herald
"Her desire to explore and celebrate will solidify her as one of the true innovators in world music." Scene in the Dark
"A powerful woman who has a depth of character in her wonderfully pliable, expressive voice."—The Observer

here's #1
Racoon and Opossum Squabbling
Game Cam Videos (30 seconds)
here's #1
That is neat! What is the light source?
infarred, no bright light flash to scare away the animals
Very interesting! more please!
Racoon won out.
The racoon must be young or very hungry. It looks a little thin compared to the ones I've seen around here. Its belly area is small for the coming winter.
oh I have some very fats ones too. I moved the camera about 30' back farther down the dam and away from the house & pens. Smeared some bacon grease from last nights dinner on tree roots where I baited them up with stale cookies and cheapo cat food. We'll see what tomorrow brings. I so want to get that Bob Cat on video but it still only takes so many and stops and it is not from the card. The first night I fot 70 last night I got 38 hmmm. Don't know what going on. I will post some of the coons eating and took one of my exotic ducks today
my Exotic Ducks
Opossum trying to get dead chicken that is pinned to the ground
Racoons luv sweets
Yummmmmmm Chocolate
They also love those large bird food cakes and floating fish food. I had 2 of them coming up to the house and eating themselves silly. I couldn't figure out what was eating the cakes in one day until my son caught them on the deck eating it. They took 4 of them for me to figure out not to buy those anymore. The fish food was in a storage shed and they made a nice big hole in the bag and probably ate about half of it over a week period before I learned to keep that bag elsewhere.
yep the floating catfish food. I just ran out of that yesterday. And suet cakes for the birds in winter. They have made off with quite a few of those lol.
you can make your own. 1 c. lard, 1c. peanut butter and 1/4 c. sugar mixed well. Add about 4 cups yellow corn meal until it stiffens up enough to hold together. I usually press it into a plastic container and chill then pop out and slice. Keep stored in frige or freezer. You can add some millet, sunflower seed etc if you want. I do it before adding the corn meal. I blend the lard, peanut butter, & sugar with beaters then switch to dough hooks when adding the cornmeal
Donna. those videos are SO cool! Your ducks have a luxurious habitat, and the opossum tugging on the chicken is really funny!
waaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!! it never showed itself. Look behind the racoon/opossum on the left side in the bushes where you can clearly see the straight stick going up that makes what looks like a Y. Just behind that. You can see the eyes higher up just at the edge of the clearing of the dam. It doesn't show up real well on the youtube video but I can see it good in the video on my computer. Don't know where it went. Think it saw camera red & green lights while it was recording. Maybe tonight since last night was the first time at new location further down the dam.
I saw the eyes, what a disappointment. Maybe later.
Hey, DonnaB, will this camera take photos of people too? We've been having burglaries here and I was thinking maybe I should put one in my garage up in the rafters. Whoever is doing this is taking big screen tv's and firearms. The police think it is a group of kids. They are doing it in broad daylight. Sometimes I am out of town to see my grandson. That would be awful to be burglarized.
yes it sure will. Anything that gets within 30 to 40 feet of the camera. A more expensive one will pick up at a longer ranger. Just make sure it is a infarred cam and not a flash one. Set it for 24 hrs. not just day time or night time setting
yea just saw that you can make the youtube video full screen and can see it much better
wow only 14 videos last night, usually 80 to 120. My little dogs kept going to the door and standing up looking out the glass. Wonder what was out there to keep everything scared off hmmmmmmm
Could it be that you have a black bear roaming around out there?
Oh I so don't want to hear about a bear running around here. My pens aren't bear proof!!!
They did find one about 20 miles from me and relocated it to a unknown location
OK, there are no bears there...LOL.
How about wild boars? Wouldn't racoons and possums be scared of them?
yes we get the wild hogs on occasion but haven't seen them in awhile. The last time we shot a young boar and he sure tasted good lol.
I am wondering if I had a coyote come through. Haven't seen or heard them in awhile either. I know since the Bob Cats all my bunnies are gone again
I am cooking a small turkey breast for dinner so I cut the ribs off and the piece of neck bone and boiled it. Hubbie tied it to a tree limb in front of the camera to see what we can get. Also put out some cheapo cat food, stale honeynut cheerios, 2 unfertile Hottentot Teal eggs, and old grape pieces
Can't wait to see what you 'capture'.
well I had great sussess but not what I was hoping for
Dancing Racoon
Got it
Very surprised see. Guess the cool front has all the preditors out looking for food. Once you see it and its gone that all there is to see
Don't want them back. Watch to end
I love your videos! What a cool machine! It's on my Christmas list for sure.
This is such fun!
PP if it is on your Christmas list go for a more expensive one if you can. Go for a 6 to 8 MP with color pics but be sure you google for the select ones you are looking at. Some have lots of problems. Reviews will tell you which cam is best for the money range you are looking at
Yes, it is so fun.
Thanks, Donna.
I know something gets in with my roosters at the horse lot. Sometimes the pens are moved and their board I put up for them to roost on is down. They are in big wire dog crates and so far haven't lost any of them, but I know something goes in there and bothers them. Would be fun to put a camera up out there and see what goes in.
I sure would for their safety
well phooey. 172 videos of coons & possums. I even put a spread out for them of turkey breast carcass hanging from a limb and left over dressing besides the cat food. They are not afraid of the camera but guess the fox and coyote were. We put the breast carcass higher so the coons couldn't get to it
Darn, I love seeing foxes. I saw one crossing the road the other day. Don't know how common they are here in NE Texas. It was the first one I've seen since moving from Illinois.
Donna, your varmints eat better than we do!
We have some kind of fox that are not native to this area. People say they showed up first around the train station, so they think they somehow rode the train here. The train station has long been abandoned, but the fox have flourished and multiplied. It's fun to see them runnning around town at night. Once I saw one with half a rabbit in his mouth running right down the middle of the street.
A few were seen around the horse lot and the neighbor which had lost a few chickens shot one of them. It could very well be the fox bothering the roosters.
DonnaB, thanks so much for posting your pictures and sharing. It inspired me to try it too.

after a very discouraging few days I finally had some success last night. Hubbie decided very early Saturday morning he was going to clear the Dam for me!!! He hacked away all the scrub brush and sapling trees taking away all the cover for which the preditors use to try and get a meal grrrrrrrrrrr and putting his scent all over everything!!! I was so PO'D
Todays very welcome surprise arrived at 8:12 p.m. last night. When it's gone that is the end
Very cool indeed! =D
he showed up again at 5:08 a.m. this morning for 4 seconds. Now if he would stay about 15 to 30 seconds I would really be happy.
Was thinking about the NightEyes thing that is supposed to protect your flock by scaring away predators. I think it depends on what you want to keep out based on all the videos I have taken the last month. The Infrared glows red when filming. As you saw in the videos It scared the Coyote and Fox as soon as they saw it and I have not seen them again but has not bothered the coons, possums, or bobcat at all.
I have the night eyes and they work great .OF corse my chickens are closed in at night,but nothing has ever tried to get under the fence,I do have a lot of animal as I live in the country and the woods is all around me.
well finally got something the last 2 nights other than racoons and oppossums since hubbie whacked down all the scrub bush a few weeks ago which gave the predators cover. Haven't seen the Bobcat at all.
Coyote with Fleas
Fox much better than last one

As always, there are spoilers from last night's episode in the paragraphs, below!
Thus far on The Originals, the show has been extremely fond of curveballs. A sophisticated web of treachery is constantly being woven by one character or another, but in the preview for next week's episode, "Moon over Bourbon Street," it looks like it's time to sit back and party, though I wouldn't exactly recommend anyone relax.
As you may have noticed, The Originals regular Claire Holt, who plays Rebekah on the hit freshman drama, is conspicuously absent from next week's preview. If you've been watching the series, you already know she's been at odds with her vampire sibling Klaus throughout Season 1. That came to a head during last night's episode, leading to a moment where Rebekah exited New Orleans in a stylish convertible, supposedly leaving her family and friends. Many viewers may have thought the exit was a way to create new drama or an excuse for her to be gone for a few weeks, but the truth is actually a whole lot more serious. According to E!, that marks the end of Rebekah as a series regular on the show, although she may pop up in random episodes in the future.
Was that her idea? Was it the writers idea? Was there some drama drama that hasn't been made public, or did she stumble into an incredible opportunity elsewhere? At this point, we have no idea what might have prompted her exit, but regardless of the behind the scenes specifics, it's still a little sad. She occasionally felt out of place or like she was struggling to be as captivating as some of the other characters, but there's no reason to think she couldn't have eventually found a niche with more time. Sadly, it now seems like we won't get the chance to see that happen.
Life without her will continue in New Orleans, however. While Klaus may have temporarily solved his familial problems, his party may not go down without a hitch next week. The vampires and witches aren't exactly getting along these days, and apparently, some locals have been getting attacked lately. Those shenanigans, coupled with all the normal issues that typically come with throwing a raging party for melodramatic and reactionary personalities, should be enough to bring the drama next week. After all, it wouldn't be a real party without some combination of death, crying, sex and regrettable decisions.
You can catch new episodes of the CW's The Originals on Tuesday nights at 8 p.m. ET. Recent episodes are also available online.

Skip to comments.Obama campaign releases ad comparing first time vote to first time having sex
Posted on 10/28/2012 6:17:28 AM PDT by IbJensen
October 25, 2012 (LifeSiteNews.com) - The Obama campaign has released an ad in which HBO actress Lena Dunham compares her first time vote for Obama to losing her virginity.
Your first time shouldnt be with just anybody. You want to do it with a great guy, says Dunham. A guy who cares about whether you get health insurance, and specifically whether you get birth control.
My first time voting was amazing. It was this line in the sand. Before I was a girl. Now I was a woman. I went to the polling station and pulled back the curtain. I voted for Barack Obama.
The ad has provoked a strong reaction from conservative commentators.
How low will they go? The Obama people apparently just cant keep their minds off of lady parts, remarked pro-life blogger Jill Stanek. These people are just plain sex-obsessed. This is an ad from the President of the United States?
Ben Shapiro of Breitbart TV wrote: Its an astoundingly tasteless ad comparing voting for the first time to losing your virginity. Really.
And Dunham recommends that if youre going to have sex er, vote for the first time, you should really do it with President Barack Obama.
When I learned that, from 1900 to 1941, the number of children born out of wedlock quintupled from 1 in 200 to 1 in 40, I was shocked. Nowadays, over one in every three babies are born this way.
Females and malesshould be insulted by the so-called advertisement.
Proper link to article:
Another article on this mess:
The entire 0bama administration is intellectually dishonest and morally bankrupt.
There aren't any virgins left in America. We've all been getting F###ed by Obama for 4 years
This ad, supported by the Obama for President organization is just another example, along with his using his middle finger when discussing Romney, of how immoral and unethical this administration and the demoncrat party has become.[[
BTW, I love the tatoo on the speakers shoulder. Guarantee she would be leaving my employment office, unhired, after showing up with that. Well, she can do Obama for life ads I guess to keep her in coffee money going forward. Educated trailer trash.
PUtin stole it from Danny Ortega in the 80's. He lost his election also.
Great historical context and ad suggestion. It's like rerunning the 0bama slogans from '08 ... juxtaposed with the same tired empty and bankrupt rhetoric being used again by him in '12.
Actually, two of my female relatives- both in their mid-20s- are saving themselves for marriage. There are some non-Sandra Flukes/Lena Dunhams left in this ugly, disgusting, vulgar, corrupt world.

First Time GM – Game Prep I – Overview
There are many facets to prepping for a game, and some of them can bite you in the ass if you're not careful. You have to prioritize things and avoid time wasters. What are those priorities? Well, it's different for each person, but the time wasters are pretty much the same. Go check out what Telas has to say over at Gnome Stew.
There are tons of ways to hand over information to players, but nothing will bring a game to a halt faster than a long dissertation on the history, details, relations or other methods of sharing your "brilliance" with the players. Keep the action high and merge in the descriptive details with the action pieces. It works well, and is a technique that I use quite often.
I loved the old days of spending hours and hours in a maze with random critters placed in random places with a million traps to overcome. It was amazing. If you want to see the Bonemaster reminisce on the same thing, then follow the link.
World Building 101: That's No Moon
What's in the sky? Sun, moon, stars, more? These are vital details for any world. Most people concentrate on what lies beneath the boots of the adventurers, but it's so important about the phases of the moons (or single moon) because battles and travel at night require light. As the GM, you need to know how which phases the moon(s) are in at all times and the phases have to make sense for the world. Also, don't forget about lycanthropes for the fantasy settings. Moonlight really makes a difference for were-critters. There are more details over at D20 Source, so go check it out.
The most important person at a role playing table is the GM. Period. Full Stop. I'm not trying to stroke the egos of the full-time GMs out there, but it's just a fact. If the GM falls flat, then the rest of the group has a really hard time keep the spirit of the game up. There is some really well-established advice at Wimwick's post as well as some new stuff to learn from.

Peruvian Meteorite Mystery Solved

A view of the massive impact crater.
(Source: Reuters)
The cause of illness from meteorite impact was discovered to be decidedly not out-of-this-world.
A significant cosmic event
when a massive meteor struck on September 15th outside the
farming village of Carancas, near Lake Titicaca. The meteor created an imposing
eight meter (26-foot) deep, 20 meter (65 foot) wide crater. Almost immediately the object was ruled to be a meteor and not something of terrestial origin.
The massive crater emitted strange fumes, which made over 30 villagers violently ill, with headaches and nausea. Reports on the exact number of victims ranged from 30 to "about 200." Speculations on possible "out-of-this-world" causes were rampant.
Police blocked off the crater, and the villagers were transported to hospitals.
The director of the health ministry in the Puno region, Jorge Lopez, said none of the patients was in serious condition but that they would have to undergo blood and neurological tests as a precaution in three to six months.
Now, a team of Peruvian researchers have determined the
true cause
-- ground water tainted with arsenic.
The villagers' reactions were the result of inhaling arsenic fumes, according to Luisa Macedo, a researcher for Peru's Mining, Metallurgy, and Geology Institute (INGEMMET), who visited the crash site.
Peru's soil is rich in arsenic deposits and when the meteor hit, columns of steam were created by the heat from the meteor. This steam bore particles of arsenic, causing the various afflictions.
Villagers described the event as a terrifying experience as they observed the massive flaming ball of rock hurtled at high speed from the skies and the impact scattered debris over a wide radius. Debris landed on the roof of the closest house,
390 feet from the crater, but no fires were reported to be caused by the debris.
The medical mystery of the meteor and its solution goes to show that there are practical explanations for many "out-of-this-world" phenomena. The event also was a significant cosmological event, as it marks one of the largest meteor impacts in recent years. For now, the people of
Carancas, probably just want to never see another meteorite again.
"Game reviewers fought each other to write the most glowing coverage possible for the powerhouse Sony, MS systems. Reviewers flipped coins to see who would review the Nintendo Wii. The losers got stuck with the job." -- Andy Marken

#MUNIonThis: It was in the early to mid 2000's that we began to see the rise of movements, such as Yabang Pinoy and Team Manila, that encourage a greater sense of pride and love for country, in a way that appealed to the youth especially.
In the past few years, we've seen this Filipino pride heighten more and more, in a trajectory more dramatic than in the past decade. A lot of this can be attributed to the rise of world class Filipino brands, like Human Nature and Rags2Riches, which have served as examples to many young and aspiring Filipino entrepreneurs to create products that really aim to showcase the best of the Philippines, in a socially and environmentally conscious way.
Embracing Your Homegrown Roots
One brand that has really stepped up to owning its homegrown origins, and is actively supporting local products with global standards, is Bo's Coffee. Earlier this year, CEO Steve Benitez announced its rebranding, now celebrating all things homegrown, beginning with the beautiful, new Bo's Coffee in Glorietta 5 (truly the perfect venue for MUNI to brew conversations on Women Weaving Change).
Every detail in the store speaks of Bo's unmistakably homegrown origins – from the artwork on its walls, lighting fixtures by world famous Cebuano designer Kenneth Cobonpue, seating upholstery by Anthill Fabric Gallery, products from other world-class local brands like Theo & Philo and Bayani Brew, and even the uniforms of the staff.
This new branding is so brilliant, and my only wish is that they came out with this branding years ago. Although timing couldn't be better, and I'm sure that more Filipino brands will take the world by storm this year and the next.
Having once been a startup himself, Benitez now wants to use Bo's as a platform for selected Filipino startups or SMEs to grow with them, through distribution at Bo's 60 branches nationwide.
"All of us have a place in this world, you can be a writer, you can be a blogger, but I think, what is important to me, is that in everything that you do, you contribute to nation-building. My place, I find myself in the world of coffee, and whatever I do in coffee, my vision is to make this in every way, in any way that I can, contribute to nation-building. This is where I find myself, this is where I've been put by divine intervention, and this is my way of giving back to the community," shared Benitez.
So what makes a Filipino brand stand out? Heart. And the Bo's Coffee brand, led by Steve Benitez and his marketing team, obviously have lots of love and passion for their work and what it stands for.
Conscious Consumption of Filipino Products
Much has been said about supporting the local industry, buying local, and so on and so forth, but not all local products are created equally. You'll have some apparently Filipino brands whose production is largely, if not purely, done abroad. On the other hand, you'll have a lot of brands that are purely made in the Philippines, except that its offerings may be quite limiting, and quality is far from world-class. This is something that Bo's addresses by upping its own standards as a coffee chain, staying true to its homegrown roots, and supporting other promising local brands.
As a consumer who can choose where my money goes, I think it's not about subscribing to the "Buy Pinoy" mentality just because. We all have this place in the world, this power to create a culture where artisans and entrepreneurs push themselves to innovate and develop more beautiful, functional, impactful, eco-friendly, and long-lasting products, if that is where we choose to put our money.
I believe that purchasing power lies not in how much money you have to spend, but in how you can influence how products / brand experiences are made (both locally and abroad) because of your choices as a consumer.
So, where will you choose to put your peso today?

WHAT IT MEANS AND WHY IT'S IMPORTANT — The law targeting data mining in Vermont, along with laws in New Hampshire and Maine, would have forced drug companies to significantly change the way they market drugs to physicians had the Supreme Court allowed them to stand in the case of Sorrell, Attorney General of Vermont, et al. vs. IMS Health Inc., et al.
(THE NEWS: Supreme Court strikes down Rx data mining law. For the full story, click here.)
When pharmacies fill prescriptions, they sell the data to such data mining companies as IMS Health, replacing patients' identities with numbers but including their ages and genders, while retaining the prescribers' names. The data mining companies then sell those data to drug companies, for which the data are critical to their marketing efforts because they allow the companies to determine such things as the demographics of various disease states, thus making it easier for them to tailor their sales pitches to physicians. IMS also provides a handy source of data for the charts illustrating sales and dispensing of drugs that frequently adorn the pages of Drug Store News.
But data mining has become controversial lately. In January, the Los Angeles Times ran an editorial attacking the practice, asserting that it violated patient privacy and expressing fears that it would allow drug companies to track individual patients. The controversy has led to efforts to enact laws that regulate it, requiring doctors' consent before pharmacies can release prescribing data to data mining companies.
The Vermont law was well-intentioned in many ways: It was designed to encourage more prescribing of generic drugs by limiting the amount of data that branded drug companies can obtain, thus leveling the playing field. It's well-known that generic drugs are cheaper for patients and can lower the cost of health care, but the Supreme Court decided that the law violated the free speech of drug companies and such data mining firms as IMS. As such, a critical component of the marketing system for prescription drugs appears safe, at least for now.

The chairman of the Taylor Planning and Zoning Commission urges Taylor citizens to become involved in current public discussion about the town's future.
"Huge decisions will be made in the coming weeks and months regarding the future shape and nature of the Town of Taylor," noted David Hamblin. "These decisions focus on issues such as the projected future expansion area of the town, our zoning, and potential locations for wells, sewer treatment plants and other infrastructure. For example, we're looking at possible future roadways for the development of commercial corridors and to take traffic pressure off of Main Street in the coming decades. These corridors might be built near the current east and west extremes of the town limits. Since these decisions affect existing neighborhoods and businesses, it's important that citizens participate in the discussion."
The Town of Taylor has made efforts to notify business owners and major landowners of the opportunity to participate in these discussions, but the response so far has been low.
"The net result of these discussions and decisions should be a strong update to our General Plan," explained Hamblin. "I look forward to hearing the public's views on the type of town they want Taylor to be in 10, 30 or 50 years. How do we balance growth and development with lifestyle? To what degree do we pursue major industrial or commercial development? Do we emphasize quiet neighborhoods? How do we ensure adequate green space? These are some of the key questions we face."
The commission typically meets at 7 p.m. on the first Tuesday of each month at Taylor Town Hall. Agendas are posted online at tayloraz.org, at town hall and at the post office. Likely topics for the Aug. 6 meeting include development vision and area, and for Sept. 3, potential zoning changes and proposed major new roadways. The commission makes non-binding recommendations to the Taylor Town Council regarding zoning changes and so forth.
The chairman of the Taylor Planning and Zoning Commission urges Taylor citizens to become involved in current public discussion about the town's future.

The eighth season of One Tree Hill, an American television series, premiered on September 14, 2010. After successful ratings for the early episodes of the season on The CW, the network ordered a back-order of nine episodes, bringing the total episode count to twenty-two.
Season eight features the return of the original opening credits and the original opening theme song "I Don't Want to Be" covered by various artists each week, while the original version is featured sporadically. Schwahn wrote 13 out of the 22 episodes, including the final six episodes of the season.
The series stars James Lafferty, Bethany Joy Galeotti, Sophia Bush, Austin Nichols, Robert Buckley, Shantel VanSanten, Jackson Brundage, Lee Norris, Jana Kramer, Lisa Goldstein. Antwon Tanner returns in a recurring capacity while Paul Johansson reprised his role as Dan Scott for two episodes. Stephen Colletti was upgraded to series regular status from the fourteenth episode, after appearing in a recurring role since season four. After months of speculation, Schwahn revealed that Murray and Burton would definitely not be back for the season, as a deal could not be reached.
The season opened to a 1.1 Adults 18-49 rating and 2.14 million viewers. The thirteenth episode of the season, "The Other Half of Me" which saw Brooke get married achieved season highs in all categories with a 1.2 Adults 18-49 rating, a 2.4 in Women 18-34 and 2.42 million viewers making it the most watched episode since December, 2009. The season averaged 1.8 million viewers. It was released on DVD in the UK on October 29, 2011.

The company "ELEPS", created in 1991 and was at the forefront of development of Russian endosurgery, today occupies a leading position among domestic manufacturers and is the only one in Russia full-cycle company , which produces all the elements of the complex endosurgical - optics, and precision instruments.
We have created a program service support with the replacement of equipment used in the new - "guarantee the smooth operation" , it is unique and has no analogues in the Russian market. Under this program, the republic's health facilities are able to provide replacement equipment during repair and service within 24 hours from the moment of the service case, and at a periodic service replacement after 5 years spent on new equipment to offset up to 50% of its value .
Due to the experimental design department a lot of attention is paid to innovative developments . So developed endoscopes with built-in LED illuminator are today unique and have no analogues in the world. The use of these endoscopes significantly reduces the cost of the equipment due to the exclusion from the complex illuminator expensive and reduces the cost of its operation due to the lack of need for periodic replacement of expensive Xenon lamps.

On the equalizer slide out, on the right edge about 2/3 down from the top, when the mouse moves over that point, a white box appears. When I click on that box, the equalizer changes preset, so it appears that this is intended to be a preset button, but either the graphic isn't being loaded or isn't defined. Thought you might like to know.
