President Michael D Higgins has said it would be wrong to wipe the slate clean over historic conflict which affected relations between Britain and Ireland.
On the eve of his official state visit to the UK - the first ever by Ireland's head of state - Mr Higgins said that progress in the Northern Ireland peace process should not be about forgetting the past.
The significance of the trip has been further deepened with the presence of Northern Ireland Deputy First Minister and ex-IRA commander Martin McGuinness who will attend a banquet hosted by the Queen - a move unthinkable only a decade ago.
Mr Higgins will spend four days on the extended visit as a guest of the monarch, a sign he says is symbolic of the importance both countries place on the normalisation of relations more than 90 years after independence.
"The peace process is that, it is a process that comes after the formal agreement at one level. Ultimately it is an exercise in consciousness at the level of community," President Higgins said.
"The challenge is to hand to a future generation all of the prospects of the future. You are not inviting them to an amnesia about any deep dispute.
"There are a lot of very difficult memories and it would be to my mind wrong to suggest to anyone that you should as it were, wipe the slate clean.
"I think Her Majesty in coming to Ireland and addressing for example issues of relations between our two people was doing it the right way."
The highly successful state visit to Ireland by the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh in May 2011 paved the way for the return by President Higgins and makes the attendance of Mr McGuinness at the royals' home, Windsor Castle, the latest a series of recent milestones in Anglo-Irish relations.
In remarkable scenes, the Queen paid her respects to republican dead at Dublin's Garden of Remembrance, visited Croke Park - site of the 1920 Bloody Sunday massacre - and made a widely-praised speech on Anglo-Irish history at Dublin Castle.
Since then, a number of meetings between Mr Higgins - a former Labour government minister, a poet and academic - and members of the Royal Family have taken place.
Although the Irish head of state has travelled to events in London, Manchester, Liverpool and Scotland last year, these were not official visits.
Mr McGuinness, who shook hands with the Queen during a trip to Belfast two years ago, was given the green light to join in the celebrations after a meeting of the leadership of his party Sinn Fein at the weekend.
The senior republican and his colleagues had snubbed the ground-breaking royal visit to Ireland in 2011.
Accepting the invitation to a state banquet hosted by the British monarchy he praised the Queen's role in the peace process.
Highlights of the visit beginning tomorrow will include an address the president will make to both Houses of Parliament - another first for an Irish head of state.
President Higgins has expressed gratitude for the extended visit being invited to stay at the Queen's home, where he will also get to view the colours of disbanded Irish regiments in the British army.
In an interview with Irish state broadcaster, he praised the royal for setting the scene for the return visit and a new era of Anglo-Irish relations in her speech at Dublin Castle.
"The words chosen and the symbolic way they were delivered by the Queen herself were extraordinarily important," he said.
"The decision for example not to ignore the past but to address it, to go on and say as well, not only would things have been done differently but maybe not all, that was adding generosity to a kind of an ethic of memory."
Mr Higgins said it was an invitation to people to be firm about events in the past but not be crippled by them in the present.
As part of the trip the Queen will stage the traditional state banquet in honour of her guest at Windsor Castle, Mr Higgins and his wife Sabina will visit the Royal Shakespeare Company in Stratford-upon-Avon and he will attend another major dinner at the Guildhall in the City given by the Lord Mayor.
Northern Ireland will be recognised with the Queen hosting a reception for leading figures from Ulster's cultural, political and business life.
President Higgins will also put Ireland's story of emigration to the fore in the visit.
He will also meet Prime Minister David Cameron in Downing Street during the visit and pay tribute to the work of Irish health professionals, meet business leaders and London Mayor Boris Johnson.
The President will be joined on the trip by Taoiseach Enda Kenny and Tanaiste and Foreign Affairs Minister Eamon Gilmore.

"We will be working with ARM to develop the security architecture for the next generation of mobile phones. This will enable people to access highly valuable services with convenience and security," explains Dr. Kai Grassie, head of the New Business division at G&D.
"ARM TrustZone technology is already an integral part of the ARM Cortex™-A series processors which are currently being deployed in smartphones by many of the industry's leading handset manufacturers," said Ian Drew, executive vice president, Marketing, ARM. "This collaboration with G&D will enable us to make rapid progress towards enabling secure transactions in next-generation mobile devices."
Acceptance of mobile applications such as banking, ticketing and payment solutions rests on the security of device and background systems involved. For this reason, both companies have been working on innovative security concepts.
The interplay of TrustZone and Mobicore ensures that if online services require security-sensitive functions such as entry of user name and password or data output on a display, these functions are transferred to the Mobicore high-security operating system running in the TrustZone protected area of an ARM application processor. As the security-sensitive functions are executed, Mobicore maintains control of the secure area of a system-on-chip. Users can therefore be certain that the data they have entered, such as their username and password, cannot be manipulated by malware on the phone during a payment transaction.
ARM is also creating a range of training and architectural service packages based around a TrustZone / MobiCore reference system which will help reduce time-to-market for secure embedded system development. ARM will release its first secure system training course based around hardware system integration and the TrustZone API next month. This will be followed by an ARM Active Assist on-site design review service package, a secure systems development training package based on Mobicore, the release of the TrustZone Address Space Controller to secure multiple regions in off-chip memory and the TrustZone reference system later in the year.
ARM and G&D will present their joint concepts at the Mobile World Congress from February 15 to 18, 2010, in Barcelona.

The availability of international shipping container movement statistics could be used in a number of studies including:
A range of stakeholders including Commonwealth agencies, state agencies, port authorities and industry associations have expressed a high level of interest in international shipping container movement statistics. As a result of the demand from these stakeholders, the possibility of using information reported to Customs and Border Protection to produce container statistics has been investigated.
Discussion with a number of these stakeholders identified a range of different data needs but a common requirement was for information on container movements that includes:
Most of the data required to satisfy the above needs can be obtained from information provided on documentation to Customs and Border Protection.
To progress the investigation into container statistics Customs and Border Protection provided the ABS with a dataset relating to imported containers. This dataset met most of the needs identified by stakeholders except Value, Gross Weight and Overseas Port of Loading. The fields in the dataset were:
It may be possible for future datasets provided by Customs and Border Protection to include a limited number of additional fields, including Gross Weight, Container Type, Overseas Port of Loading or Customs Value.
In relation to commodity, the Harmonised System (HS) is a 6-digit hierarchical classification designed by the World Customs Organization for the classification of internationally traded goods that pass their country's customs frontier. The HS provides codes for over 5,000 commodities. For Australian imports the 6-digit HS is extended by two additional digits for duty purposes and another two digits for statistical purposes. For Australian exports, the 6-digit Harmonised System is extended by two additional digits for statistical purposes. The current file includes the 8-digit level of the import classification. Some stakeholders would prefer the most detailed level of the commodity classifications to be used, that is, 10-digits for imports and 8-digits for exports.
Feedback included that value information would only be useful if gross weight was also available and that the data would lose most of its usefulness if Australian postcode of origin / destination was not available.
Care needs to be taken when analysing/interpreting the data presented. For example, a postcode may not reflect the actual origin or final destination of a container. It may reflect the transhipment of containers at an intermodal terminal. This may particularly apply to some goods that are containerised and then taken by road to Sydney or Melbourne for export.

School cafeteria head arrested for 'inappropriately' messaging minorBy NANCY BEAN FOSTER
Union Leader Correspondent
December 13. 2013 10:44PM
NEW IPSWICH — The director of the cafeteria at Mascenic Regional High School was arrested after sending what police say were "inappropriate electronic messages to a minor child."
William Geffe, 40, of Hollis, an employee of Café Services, a food service management company based in Londonderry, was arrested at his home on Nov. 30 by New Ipswich and Hollis police. According to Lt. Sean Cavanaugh of the New Ipswich Police Department, Geffe repeatedly contacted a 15-year-old girl at Mascenic Regional High School via Facebook and Google email.
The girl, according to Cavanaugh, reported the contact by Geffe to a teacher she trusted and the school district contacted police. After an investigation by the New Hampshire Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force along with police in New Ipswich, Peterborough and Hampton, arrest and search warrants were issued for Geffe and his property. When the home where Geffe was staying in Hollis was searched, several electronic devices were seized and Geffe was arrested.
Geffe was charged with one felony count of "certain uses of computer services prohibited" and was originally held on $10,000 cash bail. On Dec. 2, he waived probable cause at the 8th Circuit Court in Jaffrey, and his bail was amended to $10,000 cash or corporate surety. Cavanaugh said that Geffe has since been released on bail.
"We have no reason to believe this is anything more than an isolated incident," said Cavanaugh. "He didn't have any prior record."
But police are asking the public to report any other instances where Geffe may have made inappropriate contact with a minor.
In the meantime, Geffe is on unpaid suspension from Café Services until the case is resolved in court, said Café Services Human Resources Director Jaime Matheson.
Matheson said that Geffe underwent a thorough background check and his references were checked prior to being hired.
"He passed all of the pre-employment screening," she said.
The charge against Geffe will now be sent to Hillsborough County Superior Court for possible indictment by a grand jury.

Searching for the true causes of the West's fire problems
By now we've all heard -- oh, how often have we heard --that a century of fire suppression has created a buildup of fuels that threatens an inferno across the forests of the West.
Forest Service officials, once happy to pose for photos with Smokey Bear, now give grim news conferences to announce that natural fire regimes are terribly unbalanced and that only massive "fuels reduction" can retrieve "forest health." Under the business model promoted by the Bush administration, such fuels-reduction projects are generally paid for by cutting trees large enough to be profitable for the timber industry.
To many, that seems like a reasonable trade-off, since we want to fire-proof our forests for the long term. But before we embrace this vision of logging our forests back to health, let's examine its basic assumption: Is unnatural fuel buildup really causing more severe fires?
Like all seductive oversimplifications, the idea that fire suppression has created a tinderbox in the West's public forests has elements of truth. It's true that federal firefighters have been extraordinarily successful at keeping fire out of most Western forests for decades. It's true that fuel loads are high in many places as a result, particularly in ponderosa pine forests that evolved with frequent surface fires. Most obviously, it's true that fire cannot be kept off the land forever: Sooner or later, flammable fuels will burn.
But there's a problem. According to the fire-suppression hypothesis, the longer it's been since the last fire, the more fuel buildup and the worse the next fire. It's like one of those notoriously clear relationships --simple, clear and wrong.
A meticulous new study in the Klamath Mountains of northern California-- by Dominick DellaSala of the World Wildlife Fund and others -- has shown that when fire does come, forests that have not burned for a long time burn with lower intensity than more recently burned forests. What's more, tree plantations experienced twice as much high-intensity fire as did multi-aged forests.
That's right: Young stands, whether created by logging or by stand-replacement fires, are more flammable than forests full of big old trees. This really shouldn't come as a surprise. When you're getting a campfire going, do you toss on some kindling or a two-foot-thick log?
This research shows the folly of logging big trees to reduce fire risk. In many forests, such an approach is likely to increase the severity of fires. The study also points out an obvious but too-often overlooked reason for our current fire problem -- past logging activities. Over the last hundred years, our biggest impact on the forests of the West has not been fire suppression. It has been the elimination of over 80 percent of old-growth trees by logging. What remain are younger stands with smaller trees and more brush -- exactly the sort of forests that are the most flammable.
Any experienced firefighter will also tell you that both the behavior of individual wildfires and the severity of fire seasons are driven by one factor above all -- weather. Large-scale atmospheric patterns that bring low rainfall and high temperatures are far more important in producing major fire years than is the biomass of fuel present, which varies little on an annual basis.
There has been an increase in severe weather events over recent decades, which many experts believe is a consequence of human-caused global warming. If this is the case, the bad fire seasons of the past 10 years may pale in comparison to what's coming. What is our government doing to address carbon dioxide emissions or even acknowledge global warming? Nothing.
It's time to stop pretending that there is a simple cure for the many and varied problems of our diverse Western forests. What's needed is a cautious and site-specific approach to forest management. We also need a clear focus on actions that will protect human life and property.
There's no question that wildfire is a serious threat to the many rural communities surrounded by logged-over forests. To deal with that threat, fuel reduction should be carried out in the immediate vicinity of those communities. Farther away, federal forest managers need to focus on thinning the regenerating plantations and small polewood stands that are the true forest tinderboxes.Together, Smokey Bear and public-lands loggers have created the conditions that global warming could turn into the perfect firestorm. But if we respond calmly and thoughtfully, we can do much to reduce the risk to our communities, without logging one big tree from our last remaining old forests.

WASHINGTON — Furloughed federal government workers have filed more than 10,000 claims for unemployment benefits in the District of Columbia as the government shutdown has persisted nearly a week.
D.C. Department of Employment Services spokeswoman Najla Haywood says the claims filed by Monday represent a major increase. Under the district's recent unemployment rate, the agency usually receives 600 unemployment claims per week.
In Maryland, more than 16,000 federal unemployment claims were filed by Sunday. That's about four times the number of claims from federal workers in an entire year. The first checks are being sent this week.
Congress has begun considering retroactive pay for federal workers when the government reopens. If workers receive retroactive pay, they will have to pay back any unemployment benefits.
Virginia did not provide an update on claims.

Kore Essentials has designed and successfully patented a unique new kind of concealed carry gun belt for men that's rapidly gaining popularity among gun enthusiasts.
What's the big deal about? No more belt holes to deal with. That's right. Instead Kore's every day carry gun belts use a simple, but effective track system that provides a perfect, secure fit, holding the holster and gun tight to the waist.
Most men take it for granted that belt holes tend to look unsightly over time, stretching out and creasing the leather. And worst of all, most belt holes never seem to match up with your actual waist size properly leaving your gun belt either too loose, or too tight. Not what you want when you've got a loaded firearm on your waist. But Kore's new track style gun belt changes all that.
The track itself is a concealed, virtually indestructible row of notches stitched into the back of the stiff leather that provides over forty ¼" spaced sizing positions. The result means gun guys can now adjust their ccw belts in small ¼-inch increments, not 1" inch, and get an exact, precise fit every time they put it on. It's a small novel innovation, but the improved fit actually completely eliminates belt sag and increases draw speeds. No wonder why gun owners are switching.
The small adjustment or release tab hidden beneath the belt buckle lets you adjust your gun belt, or slide it on or off in seconds. It's an amazing, yet simple system that's making gun owners everywhere toss out their traditional gun belts with holes.
Most guys can tell you that their waist size fluctuates every day, in or out a little. It's about time your belt did the same. Kore track belts for men's do just that and they do it with classic style. Kore's track belts are 800% more adjustable than most standard leather gun belts with holes.
Kore gun belts are available in both leather and tactical nylon versions. The leather gun belts are 2 layers of Top-Grain leather stitched together, while the tactical version uses an outer layer of nylon webbing (test rated to 500 lbs.) with a Super-Fiber inner layer that's water resistant. Both versions feature a reinforced, poly-core center for added strength, durability and stiffness. The beltbuckles are made of a superior zinc alloy or solid stainless steel. Kore gun belts and buckles are both wider and thicker than the company's fashion buckles and belts and are not interchangeable.
All Kore Essential products offer a full one year warranty and full 30 day money back guarantee.

NEW YORK (AP) — "The Nance" starring Nathan Lane has already been on Broadway. Now get ready for its appearance on movie screens and TV.
A recording of Douglas Carter Beane's play will be broadcast to more than 300 movie theaters in the U.S. and Canada beginning June 23. The play will also be featured on "Live From Lincoln Center" this fall on PBS.
In the play, Lane plays a "nance" — a show business term for a stereotypically camp gay man. His character is struggling both with his identity and frustration with society's hypocrisy toward homosexuality.
Lane, a Tony winner for "The Producers" and "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum," got a best actor Tony nomination for the role last year. The play also was nominated.

How heat and humidity affect running performance and how to acclimatize to hot conditions.
Changes In Blood Flow And Sweating
The human body has the ability to cool itself in hot conditions by sweating. Actually, it's the evaporation of sweat that causes cooling, not sweating itself. (This is important with regards to humidity.)
For sweating and cooling to occur, the body must increase blood flow to the surface of the skin. Why blood? Blood is the major carrier of heat, and sweat is composed of plasma, which comes from blood. So when we sweat at high rates, we're actually losing blood volume, not to mention electrolytes. This is why proper hydration is vital.
Increased skin blood flow is problematic for an endurance athlete because less blood is available to working muscles and vital organs such as the heart, making exercise more difficult.

Radhe (Salman Khan) is a hard-core gangster . A sharp-shooter with a sharp brain, he works for Gani Bhai (Prakash Raj), the dreaded Mafioso, on his own terms. Totally fearless, Radhe singlehandedly eliminates Gani Bhai's enemies, one by one - making more enemies in the process. The man is devoid of any principles; he is arrogant, ruthless and does not care about the emotions of other people.
Radhe's astounded when young and pretty Jhanvi (Ayesha Takia) professes her affection for him. Inspector Talpade's (Mahesh Manjrekar) lustful eyes fall on Jhanvi. He doesn't know that Jhanvi has developed a soft spot for Radhe. Jhanvi is a very simple innocent and a naive girl and she believes that everything is good in the world and nothing is bad. After she meets Radhe she realizes that all her previous notions were wrong and life after that becomes a roller coaster ride for her. There is a transition in her character then.
Whether it's Golden's (Aseem Merchant) gang or Datta Pawle's Gang, everybody wants the biggest piece of the lucrative cake that is Mumbai and the only way to get it is to eliminate whoever gets in the way. As Mumbai reels under bloody gang wars, Commissioner Ashraf Khan (Govind Namdeo) vows to make the city crime-free and starts his campaign by arresting 200 criminals.
Gani Bhai comes back to Mumbai, kills Datta Pawle and ends up arrested by Commissioner Ashraf Khan. His gang retaliate by making a lewd video of his daughter. While she is tortured she reveals that there is a police informant in their gang.
On research they find outh that he's the son of former police officer Shrikant Shekhawat (Vinod Khanna) who now runs a fitness center. Upon killing him, Gani Bhai ensures that his son will perform his last rites. They find out that the mole is none other than Radhe and go into hiding.
Radhe forces Talpade to take him to the hideout. There, he engages in a mass shootout where he kills everyone, and finally slits Gani Bhai's throat with a piece of mirror, killing him.
Radhe then tells ths Commissioner that his daughter is safe and Gani Bhai is dead and also tells him that Talpade was killed fighting them. When Talpade questions this, Radhe shoots him down, saying : Ek baar jo maine commitment kardi, uske baad toh main khud ki bhi nahin sunta and the credits roll on the left side of a freeze frame of Radhe's face. Then the title song starts.___________________________________-

A look at the issues that those who govern the country will face during Barack Obama's second term. Up now: the deficit.
President Barack Obama devotes one word — "deficit" — to the issue that brought Washington to the brink of fiscal crises time and again during his first term.
But it's the paragraph that follows in his inaugural address that foreshadows what's to come: more hard bargaining and more last-minute deals driven by a conviction that he wields an upper hand.
"We must make the hard choices to reduce the cost of health care and the size of our deficit. But we reject the belief that America must choose between caring for the generation that built this country and investing in the generation that will build its future," he says. "The commitments we make to each other — through Medicare, and Medicaid, and Social Security — these things do not sap our initiative; they strengthen us. They do not make us a nation of takers; they free us to take the risks that make this country great."
This was the language of his re-election campaign. And while his address contained no reference to either political party, his pointed rejection of "a nation of takers" was an implicit reminder of the ill-timed surfacing of Mitt Romney's declaration that Obama's support came from the 47 percent of American voters "who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims, who believe the government has a responsibility to care for them, who believe that they are entitled to health care, to food, to housing, to you-name-it."

I know this isn't saying much with Rex but I question Air McNair's durability and Boller behind him. At least we've got a solid vet if Rex goes down. Plus we have 3 very capable RB's in TJ, Cedric, and AP. Who's behind Lewis on the depth chart?
And Jamal Lewis has rushed big against teams who give up over 100 yard per game on the ground. The best rush defense he's rushed against in the past 3 weeks or so has been Pittsburgh, and they're ranked about 9th or 10th in the league at 100yd/pg...The other two are giving up over 115 a game in Cincy and the Titans.

HOT SPRINGS, Va. – A squabble about scandals is consuming much of the first debate between Virginia's gubernatorial candidates.
Democrat Terry McAuliffe confronted Republican Ken Cuccinelli about gifts he took from Jonnie Williams and his troubled nutritional supplements firm, Star Scientific. When the company sued Virginia over a $700,000 tax dispute, McAuliffe claimed, Cuccinelli owned stock in the company and let the case languish.
Lecturing Cuccinelli about Williams, McAuliffe said, "Instead of taking him to court, he took you to New York."
McAuliffe wrongly claimed that a prosecutor's report Thursday said Cuccinelli should be prosecuted for his role with Williams. It made no such finding; it cleared Cuccinelli.
Cuccinelli accused McAuliffe of fabricating claims about his electric car company's employment figures and a wood pellet company in Hampton Roads that has produced no pellets.

ROME (AP) — Former Premier Silvio Berlusconi is turning to Europe's human rights court in a bid to avoid a ban on public office and other punishments for his tax fraud conviction, the media mogul's aides said Sunday.
The politician and media magnate was found guilty of artificially inflating the amounts paid for film rights by his Mediaset empire to reduce the company's tax liabilities. Berlusconi claims he is an innocent victim of magistrates who sympathize with the left, but the verdict was upheld by Italy's top criminal court last month.
His top aide, Angelino Alfano, said the petition to the Strasbourg, France-based tribunal "shows that the Berlusconi case isn't closed."
Alfano didn't say when or on what grounds the petition to the European rights court was filed. But, "we are really confident, that at the European level, we can reach a finding of innocence that so far in Italy hasn't been possible," he said.
Italy's Court of Cassation confirmed a four-year prison term — though Berlusconi is unlikely to actually serve it — and also ordered a Milan appeals court to determine the length of a ban on serving in public office from one to three years.
A Senate panel Monday starts formally discussing if Berlusconi must surrender his Senate seat. That deliberation isn't based on the ban ordered by the Cassation Court, but a 2012 law says those sentenced to more than two years in prison are ineligible to hold public office for six years.
The president of the Senate panel insisted its work would go forward without waiting for a decision from Strasbourg.
"What will we do if it (the court) takes 10 years to evaluate" Berlusconi's bid? Dario Stefano, a left-wing senator, asked Rome daily Il Messaggero. "I believe that law mandates us to vote" now on whether Berlusconi loses his seat.
Eventually, the entire Senate will vote on whether to strip Berlusconi of his seat.
Berlusconi's lawyers have contended that because the tax fraud occurred many years before the law was made, the media mogul shouldn't be kicked out of Parliament.
The human rights courts rejects most petitions, but if it does take up Berlusconi's recourse and rule in his favor, Italy would be expected to abide by the ruling, since its decisions are binding on the 47 countries, including Italy, in the Council of Europe. If a country ignores the ruling, in theory, it could be ejected from the council. But that has never happened, and in practice, the court's power is essentially a way to shame countries into doing what it rules is the right thing.
The court has an appeals process, so any decision in Strasbourg could take a long time before it is final.
The tax conviction isn't Berlusconi's only legal issue. An appeals trial is expected to take up Berlusconi's conviction in June by a Milan court of paying for sex with a minor and then pressuring public officials to cover it up. He denies the charges. The lower court sentenced him to seven years in prison and ordered a lifetime ban on holding public office.
Sarah DiLorenzo contributed to this report from Paris.

This book is one of my favorite books. I liked it because I like books about magic. I also like books with adventure and this book has it. My favorite part was when I found out that Jon had developed magic powers. I also liked this book because it has a mysterious ending. Jon reminds me of myself because I get lost alot!
I recommend this book to third graders and up because it has challenging words and might be too long for younger children. If you like science fiction books this is the book for you.

The Most Beautiful Woman In The World doesn't wear underwear
Well she can't in this dress.
Here's my G in Antonio Berardi last night at the big Hollywood premiere for Iron Man 3. The sleeves are good. Not feeling much else, especially the design around the breasts and the collar. But then again, as it always is with Gwyneth Paltrow, that's probably not the point. You're not supposed to like it. You're only supposed to look at her in it. A lot of her. All up and down her legs, and definitely her ass, because from some angles, especially when she's walking, you can see half of it. And of course if you can see half her ass then from the other side you are being teased about what's being strategically flirted with in the front. There's a significant flash risk with any stretch of the material, especially for someone who may not have such a tight body. And there it is. Because on someone who's just skinny, the dress would hang too much and lose its shape, thereby perhaps not holding in the places you need it to hold. Too many curves and there wouldn't be enough coverage. G is just thin enough and toned enough that she can make that sh-t work...while lording over you in 5 inch heels on top of her 5 ft 9 frame. And on the same day it was announced that she's PEOPLE Magazine's Most Beautiful Woman In The World for 2013.
Have I just ruined your day, two days in a row?
Or have I just made it better, because now you have something to project your rage onto? Love her or hate her, G is here for you in whichever way it serves you best. And not only with her wardrobe.
More details from Gwyneth's interview with PEOPLE for the Most Beautiful cover have now been released.
On her miscarriage:
"It was. It happened really late, and I wasn't expecting it at all. For a long time I just couldn't understand that it had happened and why. I was like 'But I can't not be pregnant. I'm already past the first trimester, and I have three car seats in my head.' To this day I feel like I'm missing that kid. But it wasn't meant to be and you have to trust the universe."
You see the exchange that has to be made as soon as you become a "lifestyle brand"? Personal information is a requirement, not an option. You are OBLIGATED to share. Overshare?
On having more children:
"More than anything I just realised 'Oh my God, I'm so lucky to have two healthy kids'. We all think 'Urgh, I don;t want to go back to diapers.' But my best friend's mom once said 'don't do your planning around the pain in the ass of infancy, because it's so finite. Plan it around how many people you want at Thanksgiving.' So then I think, maybe. But I don't know.'
Can you imagine a Gwyneth Paltrow pregnancy now that she's a "lifestyle"? Her first two pregnancies were relatively private. We hardly saw her. G had her children at the very beginning of the rise of the current Motherhood Industrial Complex. An expectant G in these times? Pregnancy might finally have a superhero, super powers activation by Belly Cupping.
Most interesting to me however were her comments about her marriage. And it's been a consistent tone that she's been hitting whenever she talks about her relationship. G seems to go out of her way to tell us that her marriage isn't perfect, acknowledging that there were troubles:
"And I also totally accept him and what he does, so I'm not the type of wife who is like 'Where are you?' I never make him feel hemmed in or like he's in trouble. And on a personal level as friends, we really get along. We really laugh, and we're super into our kids. There's a good foundation. We've gone through some terrible times where it's been really really hard, but I've sort of come through those times with a much deeper understanding of myself. And we're still married. We worked through it. I think it's easier to get divorced. But I think the more you keep at it, the more you end up seeing the value in it. But man, sometimes it is not easy."
When you mention divorce, does it mean that divorce was once an option? That's what's implied here, isn't it? It was implied that things were so sh-tty at some point that divorce was discussed, and then ultimately rejected, because, as I have been saying for years, G wasn't bred to divorce. Women like G were raised to gut it out differently, with what they would consider to be dignity.
What were the "terrible times" then?
The immediate assumption would be all those rumours a few years ago about Chris Martin hooking up with Kate Bosworth and Gwyneth ignoring Chris by spending time with billionaire Jeff Sofer (who is now engaged to Elle Macpherson). In 2008/2009, many entertainment outlets had already pre-written the Paltrow-Martin marriage obituary. Now that they've righted it though, it's telling that G still describes it this way, instead of doing as celebrities usually do, painting rainbows around the situation.
If you like her, you appreciate that it's where she is perhaps the most honest. Marriage ISN'T easy at all. If there's anywhere to relate to her, this is where you might live.
If you hate her though, you might wonder about the motivation. Is her vigilance a warning? Or is it a sign?
Whatever. She's showing half her ass. Look!

UED6029, New August 1980
Missouri CourthousesContact and other information about this county is available on the National Association of Counties website, http://explorer.naco.org/
Niangua was the name chosen for this county when it was first organized in 1841; after boundaries were slightly changes in December 1844, officials renamed the county Dallas because Niangua was hard to spell, write and pronounce. First courts met in a log schoolhouse, according to recollections of settlers.
Levi Beckner built the first courthouse during 1846-47, a small two-story building with the courtroom on the first floor and county offices on the second. The site was on the present square. Confederate troops burned the building Oct. 18, 1863. Fire also destroyed two subsequent emergency quarters during 1864 and 1867, consuming most county records.
During the February term of 1868 the court appointed Eleazer Hovey, a dentist, superintendent of a new courthouse to be built upon the square and appropriated $15,000. Plans which Hovey presented to the court for a 44-by-60 foot, two-story, brick building were approved in November 1868. The court awarded the contract to a A. E. Dye in February 1869. Dye, who also built Dent and Crawford County courthouses, requested and received an additional sum of $1,000 for his proposed cupola and door shutter in February 1870. The court accepted the completed building in June 1870. Final costs came to about $17,500 (Figure 1).

This building was renovated in 1937 and the cupola was removed in 1951, but it continued in use until destroyed by fire March 2, 1955. Thomas Hart Benton immortalized this Dallas County courthouse in a painting done in the 1950s. Figure 2 shows a 1973 lithograph taken from the painting entitled "County Politics."

Voters approved a courthouse bond for $250,000 in September 1955; the court selected Eugene F. Johnson architect, and on March 16, 1956, awarded the building contract to Rex A. Kinser for $241,114. The one-story, 121-foot-square building has a partial basement conforming to the site slope. Occupying the center area in the square plan is the Circuit Court room. Completed in February 1958, the dedication ceremonies for Dallas County's present courthouse took place March 5, 1958 (Figure 3).

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — The Texas Senate requires everyone who enters the chamber to follow rules of decorum, the most basic of which is not to disrupt the senators at work.
During the June 25 vote on proposed abortion restrictions, more than 450 protesters disrupted the last 15 minutes of the special session and prevented the measure from becoming law.
In light of that, the senate sergeant-at-arms is handing out a copy of the rules to each spectator that enters the gallery Friday for the Senate's second special-session vote.
Spectators are barred from:
— Carrying posters, placards, banners, signs or similar material;
— Attaching or affixing posters, placards, banners, signs or similar material to the walls, rails, seats or bannisters;
— Applauding or demonstrating in any way during the Senate session
Should a spectator engage in "disrespectful or disorderly conduct" or obstruct a Senate proceeding, the Senate can imprison that person for 48 hours, according to the Texas Constitution.

Not sure what chroma upsampling is, but it looks like heavy jpeg compression to me.
2. Re: No chroma upsampling in Photoshop?Jeff Arola Aug 3, 2012 7:37 PM (in response to Chromiax)
Ok i looked it up, but your examples from the wikipedia page still resemble heavy jpeg compression artifacts.
It looks like photoshop uses some form of chroma subsampling for saving jpegs depending on quality setting.
I guess some kind of video software using that method?
3. Re: No chroma upsampling in Photoshop?Chromiax Aug 3, 2012 7:40 PM (in response to Jeff Arola)
I saved that image using quality 6 purely for demonstration purposes, because I knew that quality setting uses 4:2:0. The jpeg artifacts are irrelevant. The issue is that such jpegs are very ugly when opened in Photoshop.
In case it wasn't clear: those 2 images above are the same, except the second image was opened in Photoshop and saved as png. Notice how much uglier it is (be sure not to look at the recompressed thumbnails).
Sometimes I don't notice when editing an image that I'm dealing with a subsampled jpeg (these are images from various sources) until I'm done editing, in which case I have to start all over again because Photoshop doesn't handle them properly.
4. Re: No chroma upsampling in Photoshop?Chris Cox Aug 3, 2012 7:45 PM (in response to Chromiax)
Photoshop does chroma upsampling when reading JPEG files.
But there are no standards on how the upsampling is supposed to be done, so different JPEG implementations will get different results.
5. Re: No chroma upsampling in Photoshop?Chromiax Aug 3, 2012 8:12 PM (in response to Chris Cox)
Unfortunately its results are consistently ugly and different from every other application I've tried which seem to all agree with each other (I suppose they might all use the same decoder). I've never seen Photoshop not do it wrong (where wrong = clearly uglier than the alternative). Is my only option really to inspect and possibly convert outside of Photoshop every single jpeg I wish to edit?
6. Re: No chroma upsampling in Photoshop?Chris Cox Aug 3, 2012 9:11 PM (in response to Chromiax)
You probably only tried a few applications that use the default OS decoder or the Independent JPEG Group decoder.
There are many JPEG implementations, and they really don't all match on chroma sampling.
Photoshop does it "right" in that it does upsample. But that result may not match other implementations, and it seems to be a minor difference only visible on very contrasting colors.
7. Re: No chroma upsampling in Photoshop?station_two Aug 3, 2012 10:36 PM (in response to Chromiax)
You have my sympathy for having to work with JPEGs in the first place, a format which I avoid like the plague except as a final target output.
That being said, may I respectfully suggest you run your JPEG through a JPEG repair utility such as JPEG Repair in Alien Skin's Image Doctor suite of plug-ins before editing?
8. Re: No chroma upsampling in Photoshop?Noel Carboni Aug 4, 2012 6:45 AM (in response to station_two)
Station_two, isn't that just what he's saying he has to do and would rather not? It's not unreasonable to want to just open JPEGs directly into Photoshop in general and get the best possible result.
That said, I'm not sure I agree that the fuzzier (top) version shown is "best" right out of the chute per se. I prefer sharper imagery myself, and the Photoshop interpretation is crisper looking. The stairsteps seem a small price to pay for me since one of my own tools fixes them nicely.
In the general case Adobe ought to revamp its JPEG decoder code to offer a configurable option for reconstruction of color-subsampled images, and while at it increase the maximum pixel count to 64K by 64K.

Solar Powered Golf Cart
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Transportation,
It's summer, so that means it's time to get out and swing those clubs. How fortunate that Hammacher Schlemmer is willing to make your game simpler with their Solar Powered Golf Cart. The vehicle's 160W array offers up to 3 amps per hour on its 48V rechargeable battery. This will equal about 10 rounds of golf before needing another full charge. At a size of 7 3/4 x 3 3/4 x 5 3/4 ft. and a weight of 1,100 lbs., the claim is that that the array extends the life of the battery system by 60% more than other golf carts. You have to really love the game to fork over the $8,999.95 and it would help to live in a sunny climate.

Product FAQ's
Can you stack the banana plugs from the diver's communicator cable so you can have two divers on each diver channel?
Although it may be possible, we strongly discourage such operation. The added workload would cause overheating and stress to the amplifier card. Prolonged use in this condition will eventually cause permanent damage and failure to the amplifier card.
What type of cable do I need to connect my Amron communicator to my Outland video system?Amron communicators and Outland Technology's video systems have a RCA Phono Jack. To connect the two systems together, you will need an audio cable with RCA Plugs on each end.
Should I use a GFI when operating my radio off AC power?
When operating your Amron Diver Communicator on AC, it is critical to use a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) or isolation transformer for tender and diver safety. Surges and spikes are common on AC lines found on ships, generated locally, or at the end of long extension cable runs and can exceed 1kVolt. Such surges and spikes can cause the fuse to blow on the amplifier card assembly. The power supply is designed so that such a failure will be isolated and will not cause a safety issue to the tender or divers. It is strongly advised that your Amron Diver Communicator be operated on an AC circuit with a high quality surge arrester or an AC isolation transformer.
What is the electrical protection (IP) rating on the AMCOM II 2825A & 2825R Communicators?
We have never had any official testing performed but we estimate the IP rating, assuming all gaskets are properly maintained at:
2825R Rackmount Series: IP61
2825 Portable Series: Case Closed – IP67, Case Opened – IP66
Can I convert my 2825A Communicator with non-rechargeable batteries to a rechargeable battery with external charger communicator?Yes, on the PC card there is a black jumper (J14) that you would move from the "N" side to the "R" side (next to the J14 number printed on the PC card). Also you need to move the RED (battery positive) wire on the J1 connector from PIN 1 (non-rechargeable) to PIN 2 (rechargeable). Please refer to the diagram in the Attachments tab named 2825A Non-Rechargeable to Rechargeable Battery Diagram.
How do I install a new microphone in my Amcom II or III Communicator?Please refer to the Panel Microphone Installation instructions located in the attachments tab.
Why does the speaker on my communicator sound muffled?The simplest way to fix this issue is to unplug the red banana plug from the red microphone 5-way binding post on the communicator and rotate it 180 degrees then reinstall it. This should fix your problem. For a more detailed explanation of what happened, please read below. The issue is not with the communicator, it is with the wiring of the umbilical. There is always the potential for wiring the speakers and microphone out of phase, similar to wiring the speakers on a car stereo system. There is an orientation to the banana jacks and they should be wired for proper phasing with the communicator. A banana plug does have an identified ground side marked on the plug. Amron always sets up their umbilicals so that the ground side is located on the left side so the user can consistently plug in their umbilical and avoid phasing issues. If a banana plug is plugged upside down or is wired out of phase, the sound quality will be significantly reduced. If the phasing is out and the orientation of both plugs are the same, then the banana plug wiring should be reversed on "only one plug" to avoid this issue again. It does not matter which plug you choose to reverse the wiring on.
How can I test for a blown fuse on my Amcom series communicator?
If the unit is plugged into a live outlet and turning on the switch does not cause the AC POWER LED to light up, then the fuse(s) are probably blown. Unplug the unit from the outlet, remove the fuses and check continuity with a multimeter. Replace any fuse that does not show continuity.
Can I operate my communicator while I'm charging the internal battery?Yes, however, the charger will charge the battery at a slower rate as some of the charger power is being used to operate the communicator.

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (AP) — Kathy Bates calls herself "an old lion."
The actress says she also plays one in the big-screen comedy "Tammy," in theaters this weekend. Bates portrays Lenore, a successful entrepreneur who figuratively slaps sense into the film's lovable loser of a titular character (Melissa McCarthy).
The 66-year-old "Misery" Oscar winner tells us more:
AP: I must admit I'm surprised to find you in this movie. You've done a few light comedies, such as Adam Sandler's "The Waterboy." But we're used to seeing you in dramas.
Bates: I'd heard they (the creative team of McCarthy and husband Ben Falcone) wanted me for a part. I didn't know what part. I told my agent, "I will play a giraffe with green spots, whatever they say." (Laughs.)
AP: What was the appeal of McCarthy?
Bates: Even when she gets outrageous, when she gets on the most ridiculous jaunts and puts a bag on her head and all of that, you go with it, because it's real. It's grounded in reality. You almost believe, "Hey! I'd do that, too."
AP: As Tammy and her grandmother (Susan Sarandon) careen out of control on their road trip, and in life, Lenore sets them both straight. She's a role model.
Bates: I think of Lenore as an old lion. It's taken her many years to create her business, to have a life for herself and (partner) Susanne (Sandra Oh). They met in college and I think they came out when it was very difficult for lesbians to be accepted.
AP: (The gay-cinema historian) Vito Russo would have loved that Lenore is incidentally gay. Her sexuality isn't the point of the character.
Bates: What I love about the way we are portrayed in the film is that Susanne and Lenore are a normal, healthy couple, which says, "You can't legislate who you love."
AP: What are the ties that bind you to Lenore?
Bates: I am an old lion, too. I'm nipping at the cubs quite a bit these days. When I get a young director who wants to do all these fancy shots and use all these wide lenses from a low angle, he'll get nipped. (Laughs.) I have spent 50 years of my life learning about this craft. And I'm about to turn it over to the kids that are coming up, which I will do, willingly.
AP: But you're by no means retiring. You couldn't be much busier.
Bates: I can't believe it. Let's face it. When (her TV series) "Harry's Law" got canceled and right after that I found out I had breast cancer and I had a double mastectomy that summer, I was pretty low. And I felt like I'd been kicked to the curb. And I didn't know if I would ever work again. And then, a year later, along came Melissa and ("American Horror Story" producer) Ryan Murphy. I'm just grateful for all that. A few months ago, I made the choice not to have (breast) reconstruction, because it occurred to me, "I don't want to go back to bed. I don't want to be on (the painkiller) Oxycodone for two months. I'm having too much fun."
AP: Ryan cast you in "American Horror Story: Coven," and has said that you'll appear in some capacity in the upcoming "American Horror Story: Freak Show."
Bates: I know I'm part of the "Freak Show." We live in Jupiter, Florida. And it's the 1950s. I know it's going to be out there — a good place for an old lion to be.

Tilda Swinton to Occasionally Sleep in a Glass Box at MoMA
Friday was her first performance.
Pretty much everything Tilda Swinton does is great, so when she showed up to sleep alongside a jug of water on a mattress in a glass box at MoMA on Friday, she immediately became the best thing in sleeping art since Andy Warhol's never-ending Sleep film. "Museum staff doesn't know she's coming until the day of, but she's here today," a museum source told Gothamist (who also took some fun photos.) The performance, titled The Maybe, will remain "unannounced" and "random" and will last for a full day when it happens. Swinton (who's done this before in London and Rome) hasn't said anything about the piece, and MoMA's official comments only confirmed that there would be "no published schedule for its appearance, no artist's statement released, no museum statement beyond this brief context, no public profile or image issued. Those who find it chance upon it for themselves, live and in real — shared — time: now we see it, now we don't." This sounds truly magical.
