Gemunu Amarasinghe, Associated Press
OHN TAW GYI CAMP, Myanmar — Born just over a year ago, Dosmeda Bibi has spent her entire short life confined to a camp for one of the world's most persecuted religious minorities. And like a growing number of other Muslim Rohingya children who are going hungry, she's showing the first signs of severe malnutrition.
Her stomach is bloated and her skin clings tightly to the bones of her tiny arms and legs. While others her age are sitting or standing, the baby girl cannot flip from her back to her stomach without a gentle nudge from her mom.
"I'm scared she won't live much longer," whispers Hameda Begum as she gazes into her daughter's dark, sunken eyes. "We barely have any food. On some days I can only scrape together a few bites of rice for her to eat."
Myanmar's child malnutrition rate was already among the region's highest, but it's an increasingly familiar sight in the country's westernmost state of Rakhine, which is home to almost all of the country's 1.3 million Rohingya Muslims.
More than 140,000 have been trapped in crowded, dirty camps since extremist Buddhist mobs began chasing them from their homes two years ago, killing up to 280 people. The others are stuck in villages isolated by systematic discrimination, with restrictions on their movement and limited access to food, clean water, education and health care.
Even before the violence, the European Community Humanitarian Office reported parts of the country's second-poorest state had acute malnutrition rates hitting 23 percent — far beyond the 15 percent emergency level set by the World Health Organization.
With seasonal rains now beating down on the plastic tents and bamboo shacks inside Rohingya camps, the situation has become even more miserable and dangerous for kids like Dosmeda.
Naked boys and girls run barefoot on the muddy, narrow pathways, or play in pools of raw sewage, exposing them to potential waterborne diseases that kill. Some have black hair tinged with patches of red or blond, a tell-tale sign of nutrient deficiency commonly seen in places experiencing famine.
After a 10-day visit to the area last month, Yanghee Lee, the U.N. Special Rapporteur on human rights in Myanmar, summed up what she saw.
"The situation is deplorable," she said.
Myanmar, a predominantly Buddhist nation, only recently emerged from a half-century of repressive military rule and self-imposed isolation. Despite occasional expressions of concern, the U.S., Britain and others in the international community have largely stood by as conditions for the Rohingya deteriorated.
Some ambassadors and donor countries say privately that coming down too hard on the new, nominally civilian government will undermine efforts to implement sweeping reforms and note there has already been a dramatic backslide. Others don't want to jeopardize much-needed multi-billion dollar development projects in the country.
But their hesitancy to act has emboldened Buddhist extremists, now dictating the terms of aid distribution in Rakhine.
Last month, even Bertrand Bainvel, country representative for the U.N.'s children's agency — which says the number of severe malnutrition cases has more than doubled between March and June to reach nearly 1,000 cases — apologized for the use of the word "Rohingya." It was uttered during a presentation about projects for kids in Rakhine, rather than the government-insisted term "Bengali."
He promised that UNICEF would not use the word again, those present at the meeting said, though he sidestepped repeated queries from The Associated Press about the incident.

President Lyndon B. Johnson writes Dr. King, thanking him for sending him an advance copy of "Why We Can't Wait."
The American Negro Leadership Conference on Africa writes an uplifting message to General Yakubu Gowon of Lagos, Nigeria. They extend a "hand in friendship" to bring the war in Nigeria to an end.
James E. Byrd, Campus Coordinator at Lenoir Rhyne College, writes Dr. King requesting materials for the Choice '68 campaign.
Reverend John Huston of the East View United Church of Christ writes to Dr. King to express his appreciation for Operation Breadbasket. Huston calls this the most effective civil rights initiative he's ever had the pleasure of working on. He brings up three points that he would like to discuss with Dr. King, including how to better advocate for the Negroes' federally guaranteed rights.
Dr. King quotes Alfred North Whitehead's view of the philosophy of science in The Concept of Nature.
This essay highlights the realities of poverty stricken aliens in an affluent society. Through its examination of Negro-white relations, urban riots, and the War on Poverty, the author insists that the nonviolent struggle for civil rights must continue.
James R. Herrington wrote this adverse letter to Dr. King, calling both him and his doctrine of civil disobedience "trash." Herrington ends his letter by saying that President Johnson cared more for Dr. King and the Civil Rights Movement than the rest of the country, and therefore, won't be president again.
Dr. King briefly outlines the problem surrounding the work of the Greek poet Homer. The note card references the view of German scholar and critic Friedrich August Wolf and documents two primary theories regarding Homeric literature.
Marshall Breland, a student from P.S. 200, requests information from Dr. King for the purposes of a school related assignment. Breland deems Dr. King "The Non-Violent Crusader".
Dr. King expresses his appreciation for a gift given to the SCLC on behalf of The Winsor School, Boston, Massachusetts.
Dr. King gives a sermon on why he does not support the war in Vietnam.
Mr. Eldredge, Executive Director of The American Association of Fund-Raising Counsel, writes Dr. King to express criticism of a statement made in an SCLC fact leaflet regarding "commercial fund raisers." Eldredge states that, while many people in his Association are usually sympathetic to Dr. King's views, the "distasteful" sentiment is exception.
The SCLC publishes this manifesto declaring that all eyes are focused on the South as it confronts the controversial issues of freedom and equality for Negroes. In the quest for equality, the southern Negros' plan of defense is Christian love and non-violent resistance. The document not only reveals tragic conditions in the South, but also affirms five principles by which equality can be achieved for Negro citizens.
The student permanent record of Judith Ann Jones lists her academic progress while attending Chowchilla Union High School in Fresno, California in 1965.
In this letter, Benjamin E. Mays is notifying William Trent that Dr. King will meet with John D. Rockefellar, III at his office on Feburary 6. What the meeting is about is not specified in the letter.
Dr. King discusses the prevalence of racial issues in society. Discrimination and segregation still occur but through means in which the government has not declared unconstitutional. One of the main problems discussed was housing discrimination. Many African Americans were forced to live in slum housing in bad areas because they were not able to buy a house in the "white neighborhoods." Dr. King states that this type of social injustice cannot continue if the nation wants to progress.
Dr. King writes to Rev. Isaac Green of Central Baptist Church thanking him and his congregation for their contributions to the S.C.L.C.. He explains that without those contributions the conference would not be able to work effectively reach its goals.
Dr. King records a quote on righteousness from Karl Barth's "The Epistle to the Romans."
Dr. King references numerous biblical scriptures on the attributes of God.
Dr. King records his views of Scott regarding "The Bible." Scott believes that beyond being an "anthology of the noblest religions," the Bible is also an account of history. Even though there is the ambiguity that comes with history, there is also an unambiguous message of the purpose of God and the destiny of man.
Gerhard Amendt of the West German Radio Corporation expresses his interest in having Dr. King give his opinion of the Civil Rights Movement.
Duncan Bradford, the executive secretary for the British Columbia Hospitals' Association, requests for Dr. King to make an address at the national convention to speak out against the atrocities occurring around the word.
T. Jansma, General Secretary of the Dutch Baptist Union, asks Dr. King to deliver a speech to Baptists in Amsterdam while he is in the city to receive an honorary degree.
Jacob Broertjes informs Dora McDonald that Dr. King will speak at two sessions for the European Baptist Federations. The services will be brought to various European countries via television. Mr. Broertjes details the intricacies of Dr. King's visit.
Mrs. Galanter informs Dr. King of mobilization efforts in the North to aid in "Negro Voter Registration programs in the South" and requests areas in need of support.
Robert A. Jackson, Minister for Knox's Church, congratulates Dr. King for receiving the many honors bestowed upon him. Minister Jackson invites Dr. King to come speak at either the Polio Dinner or the 100th Anniversary of the Church Home.
Mr. Kendrix wishes to meet with Dr. King to discuss a certain rumor concerning him and the Coca-Cola Company.
June E. Price sends Dr. King a "Thank-U-Gram" to congratulate him on the inspiring message he recently delivered and his dynamic leadership in the fight for first-class citizenship.
Dr. King delivers an informative telegram to James Hicks, editor of Amsterdam News, regarding the current SCLC initiative to launch a civil rights campaign in Chicago, Illinois. The movement will direct its efforts towards school integration and eradicating the social ills that plague the Northern ghettos. Dr. King asserts "if the problems of Chicago, the Nation's second largest city, can be solved, they can be solved everywhere."

Beauty News
Just when we thought we'd seen every nail art creation imaginable, we discover this: the diagonal manicure.
Moving on from winter's testing ombre nail craze (featuring shaded colour), it's now all about painting bold tips on an angle for a fresh take on the classic French manicure.
Try your hand at creating the look at home - and make like the models at Paris Fashion Week - by prepping the nails with a super-glossy nude varnish. Once the base colour is dry, it's time to tackle the tips.
For the perfect diagonal, the experts use scotch tape (it's not as sticky as regular tape, so it won't peel away the varnish). Place it from the top left-hand corner of the nail across to the bottom right-hand corner, before painting the tips a bold orange, raspberry-pink or wine shade for impact.
When tips are dry, gently peel away at the tape before sealing the deal with a layer of top coat. Once you've got the technique down, you'll realise adding a bold tip is the perfect way to stretch an extra day or two out of a professional manicure that's starting to chip.

SystemRescueCd 1.5.6
SystemRescueCD is a free, Linux-based CDROM image for system recovery that boots into a minimal graphical interface and provides a host of useful tools culled from many sources.
In addition to the suite of dedicated recovery and repair utilities, the disk can get you to a basic desktop that includes network connectivity and a web browser. This is an important feature as, let's face it, most recovery work requires the odd visit to a search engine.
Although it can boot to a fairly useful desktop, it's not a lightweight general purpose distribution like Puppy Linux.

EPB officials said the success of its phone, Internet and TV services are benefitting customers on the electric side.
Harold DePriest, president said the fiberoptic-based businesses are contributing $19.8 million on an annual basis to the electric budget.
He said without that money, it would equate almost to a four percent rate increase for electric customers.
Mr. DePriest said, "It's been the best investment we have made - not just in terms of dollars, but in understanding the technology and applying it to the electrical side."
He said the fiberoptic "smart grid" is helping EPB get information much more quickly about downed power lines and, in many cases, keep service from going down in bad storms.
Mr. DePriest said the smart grid is helping EPB reduce outages "at least by half."
He said storms typically blow through Hamilton County from west to east and then head for Bradley County, taking 45 minutes to an hour. He said in the past when storms hit at night it might be four-six hours before the utility was notified about specific outages. But he said with the smart grid it has a much better handle on where service is temporarily out.
He said the information also lets EPB better position slow-moving utility repair crews in the center of the hardest-hit areas.
EPB got the benefit of $111 million in federal funding to build the smart grid. Mr. DePriest said $11.4 million of that money is left, "and it will be spent fairly quickly."

Manchester duo Cathy Wilcock and Chris Lyon have been playing music together since both were involved in the now defunct Edinburgh five-piece Mayhew.

Hello there,
On a whim, my fiancee and I booked a trip to Christchurch, NZ and Fiji for January 2012, following our wedding. At first prices looked reasonable but the more I look, the more outrageous they seem.
Can anyone give me recommendations for a great, low-cost hotel and/or area to visit? Tour companies, etc.? I'm not looking to stay in a hostel or on a private island, but someplace easily accessible, beautiful and cozy.
Hoping I don't regret my decision...

Last January, DH and I stopped in Fiji on the way back from New Zealand. We stayed at the Bedarra Beach Inn. Loved it! Ask for the Deluxe Hooneymooner. We stayed in that room as we were celebrating our 30th anniversary. It was awesome. You can snorkel right outside the hotel. Good low cost restaurants are within walking distance. It is an hour from Nadi (hotel will arrange transfers) on the Coral Coast.

I've stayed at Bedarra a few times and endorse BarbAnn's comments. It's very low key, well located and within walking distance to lots of the other resorts along the Coral Coast.
Depending on how long you're in Fiji, you might consider renting a car & exploring some of the hinterland on Viti Levu. Easy driving, picturesque & interesting.

2013 PWA Fuerteventura Event Preview
by PWA Information on 19 Jul 2013
Proffesional Windsurfers Association
On the 2013 PWA Freestyle World Tour women will be making their first appearance whilst the men's freestyle fleet will be returning to action from the 20th to the 26th July.
This year marks the 28th anniversary of world cups held on the beautiful golden sands of Sotavento, Fuerteventura, and it promises to be a brilliant week packed with the most explosive freestyle on the planet.
Sotavento is located on the Southeast coast of Fuerteventura and has developed a world-class reputation over the years due to its year round sunshine, stunning golden beaches and most importantly its consistently nuclear winds, which create some of the most exhilarating conditions on the PWA World Tour. With nuclear winds peaking at around fifty knots combined with perfectly formed stunt ramps, Fuerteventura is a freestyle windsurfers paradise allowing the biggest and most powerful moves to be thrown at free will.
What's The Deal?
A seven-day freestyle extravaganza featuring the most radical contortionists in the windsurfing world. Of course the sailors will also be battling it out for those all important world tour points as they fight for the top honors.
Ones To Watch
Having won the last four successive events, five-time PWA Freestyle World Champion - Jose 'Gollito' Estredo (Fanatic / North) - is without doubt the man to beat. Confidence will be higher than it has ever been and given his performance, whilst training in Pozo, the Venezuelan looks as though he will be an extremely difficult figure to beat. Expect to see his trademark paskos, crazy air chachoos and a whole plethora of other sensational moves as he looks to cement his place at the top of the rankings.
As the last man to beat Gollito - Steven van Broeckhoven (JP / NeilPryde / Different) - perhaps represents the biggest threat to the reigning world champion. The Belgian maestro won here in 2011, whilst finishing just behind Estredo last year as he took home second place. The King of Pop excels in the howling winds and choppy waters of Fuerteventura, so you can expect to see him going bigger than ever before in his attempt to regain his world crown.
Kiri Thode (Starboard / Gaastra) has been on the cusp of major success for the past three years and has finished the past two seasons as the vice-world champion. The Bonairean will be doing everything in his power to go one better this year and he's certainly a sailor to keep a very close eye on over the coming week. Of course the rest of the Bonaire crew consisting of: - Taty Frans (Starboard / MauiSails / Mystic / Maui Ultra Fins), Tonky Frans (Tabou / Gaastra), Amado Vrieswijk (Starboard / Severne) and Bjorn Saragoza (Starboard / Hot Sails Maui) will also be a major threat.
Anthony Ruenes (Tabou / Gaastra) looks as though he is back to his brilliant best after he opened up the year with fourth place in Austria, after a hugely impressive display. Ruenes sails with an almost unrivaled style on the water and if he can show the kind of form he did at the start of the season then the Frenchman will be vying for the top five positions and above come the end of the week.
Dieter Van Der Eyken (Starboard / Severne) enjoyed his best finish to date thus far on the PWA World Tour last year in Fuerteventura - fifth - and the Belgian will be looking to at least equal that result again this year. Van Der Eyken has already demonstrated on more than one occasion that he has the talent to take down any of the biggest names in windsurfing and he'll be feared by all of his fellow riders.
The current European Freestyle Champion - Davy Scheffers - (Tabou / Gaastra) - fought his way back through the double elimination in Austria to claim fifth place overall after throwing some amazing tricks such as no-handed burners and huge air funnels. The Dutch maestro will be looking to continue his assault on the top five as he looks to transfer his success in Europe onto the world scene.
Of course the huge talent of Youp Schmit (JP / NeilPryde) will also be a major threat. The eighteen year old is one of the most exciting prospects on the PWA Freestyle World Tour and he's already finished in the top five at an event - Sylt last year - now Schmit will be looking to see if he can break into the illustrious top four. Other names to look out for are Adrian Beholz (Fanatic / Sailloft Hamburg / Maui Ultra Fins), Nicolas Akgazciyan (Starboard / Point-7 / AL360) and Philip Soltysiak (Starboard / Sailworks) if he can overcome a recent shoulder injury. The PWA Freestyle World Tour is so competitive right now that anyone could break into the top ten and beyond.
The Queen of Freestyle - Sarah-Quita Offringa (Starboard / Gaastra / Mystic / Chris Benz / Maui Ultra Fins) - represents a formidable force given the fact that she is currently unbeaten on the PWA Freestyle World Tour for the past five years. The Aruban gem has the majority of the latest power moves in her artillery and as a result looks almost unbeatable, barring disaster. Expect to see explosive culos, burners and perfect konos as she goes in search of an incredible sixth freestyle world crown, at the age of just twenty-two.
With the vice-world champion - Laure Treboux (Fanatic / Severne) - absent from the entry list the door is now open for Arrianne Aukes (RRD / Simmer / AL360 / Maui Ultra Fins) or Yoli de Brendt (Fanatic / North) to step-up and challenge Offringa. Aukes finished on the podium for the first time ever last year and she'll be looking to replicate last years result at a minimum.
Svetlana Martynova finished fifth overall last year and is reported to have improved again, so she could well be one to watch as she goes in search of a place on the heralded podium.
The week ahead promises to be one of mind-blowing freestyle, as the contortionists of the windsurfing world launch into the biggest gravity defying tricks on the planet. Make sure you don't miss any of the amazing action by tuning into www.pwaworldtour.com from the 20th July.

HPC vendors are ready to dump Nvidia
Time to look at alternatives
DESIGNER OF HOT GRAPHICS CHIPS Nvidia will pay a price for its folly with Fermi, as high performance computing (HPC) vendors are starting to look elsewhere for GPUs.
The INQUIRER can reveal that HPC icon Silicon Graphics International (SGI) has been looking at alternatives to Nvidia's Fermi line of graphics processing and floating-point computing GPGPU boards to offer customers in its servers. Presumably the Silicon Valley vendor, which is trying hard to rebuild itself from the ashes of two bankruptcies, wants to offer customers an energy efficient alternative.
SGI's senior director of server product marketing, Bill Mannel told The INQUIRER that he believes that Nvidia's rival chip design outfit AMD is "catching up very quickly" with its ATI brand of graphics chips. ATI's high end GPGPU cards are only barely nosed out by Nvidia's Fermi based Tesla boards in some applications. Mannel said he expects there to be "even performance capability" between AMD/ATI and Nvidia within the next 18 months.
When asked whether Nvidia's power hungry chip poses problems for the HPC vendor, Mannel said that incorporating Tesla boards in the firm's designs creates an "additional amount of work" and that the firm had to design new processes to test the Green Goblin's latest "hot cards".
The effect of these hot cards is stark, according to Mannel, who says that it leads to a "worse failure profile" in servers, meaning that vendors such as SGI have to spend more on design, manufacturing and maintenance. To accommodate Tesla boards Mannel said that SGI and its customers have had to "scale up the cooling infrastructure" to meet the higher ambient temperature demands in HPC data centres due to the additional heat output of the hardware.
When it comes to HPC and servers, cooling doesn't merely end with venting hot air out of the rack. Cooling the entire computer processing facility is just as vital to avoid a Fermi furnace and contributes significantly to HPC data centre costs. According to Mannel the heat challenges of the earlier generation of Tesla boards were so immense that SGI had to give up on cooling the previous generation of dual socket, dual Tesla designs and decided instead to focus on Fermi based Tesla boards. Perhaps unsurprisingly, Mannel and his team weren't pleased when Nvidia's latest and greatest Tesla cards tipped up.
Mannel said SGI had to forgo Nvidia's "P spec" passive cooling option in favour of the larger "S spec" cooling box. To underscore the formidable heat generation qualities of Fermi, Mannel said that SGI's HPC server cooling configurations vary greatly depending on how the Fermi based Tesla cards "are ganged together".
SGI like all vendors evaluates the hardware before selecting components and configurations it believes will be good fits for its products and customers. According to Mannel, when the firm first evaluated GPGPUs, Nvidia came out on top, but now things are looking rather different.
For SGI a number of options exist, however AMD is looking like the favourite to get the nod. AMD has recently bolstered its GPGPU effort by nabbing the engineer who has been labelled the brains behind Nvidia's HPC push, Manju Hegde, and is expected to renew its efforts to compete with Nvidia in the HPC arena.
SGI is unlikely to dump Nvidia completely, though. After all, the firm has spent millions and worked hard to incorporate the ill-conceived Fermi chips. However it clearly thinks that it needs alternatives so it can attract customers who don't want to rack up huge energy bills to run its servers.
For its part, Nvidia had done exceedingly well in the HPC area with Cuda, however thanks to Fermi it could lose the benefits of the hard work that Hegde put in before jumping ship. After the delays, the scaling back of performance and increases in power consumption and cooling needs, it's no surprise that SGI is looking elsewhere.
SGI might be just the first in a long line of HPC vendors and customers to grow tired of Nvidia's latest GPU chip design debacle. µ

— ANI (@ANI_news) July 14, 2014
It will leave at 5:30 pm daily from the national capital and arrive at Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Katra station at 5:10 am the next day.
Similarly, in the return direction, it will depart from there at 10:55 pm daily and reach here at 10:45 am the next day, a Northern Railway statement said.
Comprising one first AC, five AC two-tier and nine AC three-tier coaches, the train will have stoppages at Ambala Cantt, Ludhiana, Jalandhar Cantt, Pathankot Cantt, Jammu Tawi and Udhampur stations enroute in both directions.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi had on July 4 flagged off the first train from Katra while commissioning the 25-km-long Udhampur-Katra line, built at an estimated cost of Rs 1,132.75 crore.
At the function, the PM had named the train Shri Shakti Express and said such services are planned from major cities in the country. The shrine attracts about 10 million pilgrims annually.
Katra station is equipped with modern facilities, including tourist guide counter, cloak room, waiting hall, VIP lounge, escalators and lifts and parking spaces.
The train connectivity to Katra is part of the ambitious Kashmir rail link project marking region`s rail connectivity with the rest of the country.

Interestingly, a new twist on an alternative revenue generator has emerged: the democratized digital tip jar. Sites like Wikipedia have employed an online tip jar for years in the form of regular requests for donations from its users via PayPal, credit/debit cards, and other payment methods. But now a major player in the digital donations space-Flattr-is partnering with AdBlock Plus to offer Flattr Plus, a browser extension/app that enables users to remove online ads from sites they visit while also contributing a monthly payment in an amount they choose that will be distributed proportionally to publishers of the sites they surf.

Wiley InterScience, the dynamic online content service of global publisher John Wiley & Sons, Inc., has launched its new Pay-Per-View service--opening up access to its electronic journal and book material to individuals who previously didn't have access to the full range of the service's scientific, technical, medical and professional content. Offering access via a secure credit card transaction, the service can be used from any Web-enabled computer, allowing users to access content from work, home, and on the road. Corresponding with the launch of Pay-Per-View is the expansion of Wiley InterScience ArticleSelect, a token- based individual article supply service for subscribing libraries, which provides access to articles and chapters in non-subscribed journals and books. The service was previously available only to Enhanced Access License Customers, ArticleSelect, but has now been extended to include Basic Access License customers. The service is demand driven, so librarians need only to pay for access they know their patrons will use.

Just a quick word to tell you how pleased I am with the new ATV I recently purchased from your store. I am especially appreciative of the years of excellent service and experience I received from Kenny Gaudio in your service department. I have been bringing him my old unit for many years and when I needed a new one he was quick to set me up with the information I needed and the sales staff, who assisted me in getting what I wanted. I will be sure to continue bringing my equipment for the same great service I have been receiving. Thank you very much!
I visited your store for the first time last week. I was having some work done on my bike and some parts I had previously purchased on-line were incorrect. I came here because you had what I needed in stock and Leslie (in parts) had the items ready for me when I arrived. While I was still here, my mechanic called and said he needed another part. I gave the phone to Leslie and she went to great lengths to make sure I left with the correct additional part. I was impressed and pleased with her. I think Leslie is an asset to your company.

Marin Cilic denies `faking injury to disguise failed drug test`
Johannesburg: Croatian tennis player Marin Cilic has reportedly denied allegations by the International Tennis Federation (ITF) that he had pulled out of this year`s Wimbledon Championships by faking a knee injury to disguise a failed drug test.
Cilic was banned for nine months for testing positive for banned supplement nikethamide after taking Coramine glucose tablets purchased at a pharmacy in Monte Carlo.
Stating that he wanted to address `certain media reports` which suggested that he had `feigned` an injury at Wimbledon, Cilic said that he had already developed a significant knee injury before Wimbledon, which got aggravated during his first round match.
However, Cilic insisted that although he was very keen to continue playing at Wimbledon, he was advised that there was a possibility that his Wimbledon results could be wiped out depending on the result of his case.
According to Cilic, it did not make any sense for him to risk causing his knee a more severe injury and to deprive other players the opportunity of playing further into the tournament, following which he decided to pull out of Wimbledon and accept a voluntary suspension pending the determination of his case.

"By the Winter of 182 AR, Emperor Vezimmir's rule in Tiberia was almost complete. With shrewd diplomacy and ruthless military insight, he had decimated the Eturian Empire by first breaking a deal with Rollo, Warlord of the Vesi, to invade Datia. Most of Eturia's armies were off West fighting the Adamantians alongside the Drysians. However, to ensure that Datia never received aid from Eturia, Vezimmir orchestrated with the Reavers of Oskaria to descend upon Eturia's poorly defended coastal cities. It comes as no surprise that, with the fall of the Eturian Empire, her lands were in no shape to deny the Emperor's rule."

"Of course stranger. You can find Luayas in the center of the village proper continue on until you see a large apple tree; she can aid your wounded. Please be gentle and offer tithes for her generosity." A gentle eyed man in homespun clothing, simple yet comfortable in the heat.
"Thank you farmer, we are in your debt. What does Luayas look like so that we might find her quickly? Does she stay by the tree often?" saying over his shoulder in thanks as he half pushed, half carried his companion along.
"No stranger." The farmer laughed, "She is the tree."
The players see a small shrine to the local nature deity just of the trail. Before they even approach it, they can smell the foul stench of rotting meat. If they inspect the shrine, they can see it has been desecrated by rotting organs in the last few days. There is no mistaking it for an obscure ritual, the organs are thrown everywhere, not left in specific places as in sacrifice.
If the players try to clean the shrine, they will soon find it has been boobytrapped to fling sharp splinters covered in the rotting gore in every direction. While only doing a few points of damage, they injured players will likely take sick soon unless they get medical attention.

The Ensemble is an extra-curricular student theatre ensemble that performs classical works by Shakespeare and other authors.

We perform one mainstage show per semester, plus "scene nights", performances of black-box scenes from any play, and a mainstage summer show.
Parking You may try MIT parking lot for Bank of America ATM on Mass Ave. (between Albany & Vassar St: Free after 5 pm) If that is full, find a meter spot (free after 6 pm) on Mass Ave. towards Central Sq. You may find a spot on Main St. but not too close to Kendal T station (no parking usually around there). It is still a good walk (about 8 min +) to the student center building from wherever you find a spot.
MIT Stratton Student Center: 84 Mass Ave is about a 10 min walk from Central Sq. or Kendal Sq. (Red Line) stations.
After the show, we may go to Anna's Taqueria inside the Student Center downstaris, if enough people are interested.
Hi Shakespeare folks,
I will be inside Sala de Puerto Rico (2F of the Student Center) with a meetup sign and name tags from 7:30 pm. Find me inside with a Meetup sign and we try to sit together. I put How to get there info + parking for the first timers. Hope you managed to reserve a seat online for yourself.

Hi Odette,
Right - just online reservation only. It says we have to show up at least 15 min. before the show (and pay at the door, presumably) otherwise you would loose the reservation. I just reserved mine. Mark did not say clearly in his email but I am sure that what he meant. Thank you for pointing out. Now we should meet around 7:40 pm. - I will be there at the door of Sala de Purto Rico from 7:30 pm.

4D printing technology enables objects to reassemble themselves over time
A new evolving technology has been put forward by an architect and computer scientist Skylar Tibbits. Using this concept, printing of such objects would be possible that can reunite themselves with time. Skylar Tibbits, who is also an MIT professor, has termed it as '4D printing' using time as the fourth dimension. This is because printed objects reassemble themselves and take the original shape over a definite period of time.
Enough 3D printing! Now this pen can "write" in 3D, that too in the air
3D printing is a revolution in technological world. We have witnessed various types of 3D printers but what we are going to discuss today is really different and astounding. A 3D printing pen named 3Doodler. It's a magical pen that can create wondrous objects in air, literally. 3Doodler is touted to be the world's first and only 3D Printing Pen. Working of the pen seems just like a magic, a magic to draw or write anything in air.
A 3D-printed hi-tech remote controlled Transforming Robot
Brave Robotics has developed a robot that can transform into a car with push button controls. It's a 3D printed (3D Printed parts) robot that functions like an actual Autobot, only the scale is 1/12. The robot can walk around very quickly, transform within seconds, shoot missiles and can be driven like a sports car. It also features a Wi-Fi camera that can capture the Autobot's view and display it on a tablet or any other gadget of same kind.
