This conflict is as much about domestic politics as foreign involvement. It stems from the victory of Republicans in the congressional elections last November. Their triumph ensured that the Clinton presidency - already scarred by epic congressional battles over the President's economic and health plans - would forever be hostage to a hostile House and Senate.
It was not long before America's boldest politician, the House Speaker, Newt Gingrich, found an easy showcase for the foreign policy aspects of his "Contract with America". It emerged in the portentously titled National Security Revitalisation Act, which passed the House last week by 241 to 181 votes.
Mr Gingrich capitalised on the UN misadventure in Somalia, which seemed, to critics, to sum up all that was wrong. The intervention lacked clear purpose. It entailed needless American losses. There appeared, at times, to be as many warring factions in the UN command structure as there were on the streets of Mogadishu. All this led to the failure of the mission.
Somalia may have encapsulated the ills of the UN but it remains a bad example upon which to make policy for a nation as mighty as the United States. The considered judgement of US foreign interests has become unhealthily mingled with the emotional struggle between Bill Clinton and conservative America.
Few politicians could be more aware of this than Bob Dole, the Republican leader in the Senate. He has crafted a less partisan version of the Bill. Senator Dole has three reasons for prudence. First, he is by nature an internationalist, more aware than Mr Gingrich of America's complex interests beyond its shores. Second, he knows that those interests have been well served by America's ability to invoke the authority of the United Nations. Third, he wants to run for president in 1996 and, presumably, he has no wish to tie the hands of a future executive.
Whether the veto is exercised or not, the fact is that American involvement in the UN has been placed under debate. The UN does indeed need a shake- up - in this, its 50th year, it cries out for reform. But peacekeeping is the wrong battleground on which to fight. Better to wage war on the rotten boroughs of the UN's agencies than to make international security hostage to the ideological struggle between President Clinton and his foes. The best response to Mr Gingrich's populist zeal is a drive to make the UN credible again.

Shy Artists Put On A Show For Baby
Isn't it amazing how some people who would never consider themselves artists, who would never be caught dead wielding a crayon, and who would certainly never volunteer to play a game of Pictionary, suddenly become artists in the presence of a baby and a pack of crayons? My friend Jan, living in San Francisco with her husband and adorable toddler, sent me the following images from her bathroom - where the shower wall has become an ongoing art gallery for anyone who gives her little girl a bath. All the following were drawn by her husband and her mother. Thanks for sharing Jan! First owl drawn by hubby. Grandma's montage. I wonder what that owl is thinking... Great tree trunk on the left with the bark details. Another of hubby's owls,…

But in India many ladies stop to have sex at the age of 55-58 once they attain menopause age.

One of the most internationally recognized and respected athlete, Edson Arantes do Nascimento or better known as Pele is regarded by his peers, fans and football critics as the best player of all time. Known as as the most successful league goal scorer in the world, Pele inspired award-winning director Brian Grazer to make a biopic out of his amazing football career.
Now a retired Brazilian footballer, Pele was voted Football Player of the Century in 1999 by the International Federation of Football History & Statistics (IFFHS). The 72-year former football superstar has a total of 1281 goals in his 1363 games, and dedicated his 1,000th goal to all the poor children in Brazil.
The principal photography of Pele biopic has already started on September 30 in Brazil where a mix bag of nationalities are casted. Brazilians Leonardo Lima Carvalho and Kevin de Paula will play respectively as the young Pele, Brazilian singer "Seu Jorge" (Jorge Mario da Silva) will play Pele's father who taught him how to play the games and the pushed him to greatness.
Must Read
Other cast includes Vincent D'Onofrio (Law & Order: Criminal Intent) will play as Feola, Brazil's World Cup coach; Diego Boneta (Rock of Ages) will star as Jose, Pele's archrival who reportedly gave Pele his nickname when they were children and Colm meaney (Hell on Wheels) will play as George Raynor, the British coach of the Swedish World Cup team.
Supporting cast includes Felipe Simas, Rafael Henrique, Marcus Vinicius, Julio Levy, Marianna Nunes, Milton Goncales, Thelmo Fernandes (Elite Squad), Charles Myara, Jerome Franz, Rafael Henrique, Marcus Vinicius and Roger Haag. The highly talented cast are now busy shooting the film and its a perect time for Pele's biopic for next year's World Cup in Brazil.
Born in a poor family, Pele is the oldest of the two siblings and was named after the American inventor Thomas Edison. There is no record where the name Pele originated, apart from the assertion that the name is derived from a hebrew word Bile, meaning miracle.
Now Pele is a worldwide ambassador for football since his retirement in 1977, and has taken various acting roles and commercial ventures. He was named as Honorary President on the New York Cosmos in August 2010.

Windows Azure - Microsoft announces a cloud-based development platform (betanews.com)
submitted 5 years ago by [deleted]

[–]kripkenstein -1 points0 points1 point 5 years ago
So, it's a 'cloud-based' development platform, running on Microsoft servers, and has nothing to do with 'windows' in the dictionary sense of the word... yet it is 'Windows Azure'.
But I guess we crossed that line with Windows Server already. Whatever.
[–]djpnewton 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago
Ray was talking about a "cloud OS".. so maybe the reasoning is:
[–]kripkenstein 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago
Oh, it's obvious that it's simply more use of 'Windows' the brand name. I was just commenting on the silliness of it.
[–]djpnewton 0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago
well... yeah you're right
[–]grauenwolf 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago
Actually it does.
They are literally talking about a new uber-Windows operating system complete with support for both native (C++) and managed (.NET) code, SQL Server, Active Directory, and ASP.NET.
They aren't doing their normal half-assed approach to the web, they are betting the farm on this one. You can run your entire organization from Azure, including websites and database, or split things up where some run in-house and run on the cloud.
Yesterday I would have said said cloud computing was a fad and a waste of time. Today I'm looking hard at my systems and thinking this could really work for us.
[–]AlanYx 2 points3 points4 points 5 years ago*
However this turns out, it's a bold move. It looks like it's more comprehensive and flexible than Google App Engine (its obvious main competitor) and the piecewise set of services Amazon is providing right now.
[–]joaoma 3 points4 points5 points 5 years ago
I wouldn't hold my breath on this one. Microsoft is very good at marketing, even when their products suck badly. Better wait for something concrete to come out.
[–]grauenwolf 0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago
Oh trust me, I wouldn't even consider doing real work on this for 3-5 years.
Also, Cloud computing isn't the only option. Using advanced virtualization, you can get many of the same scalability on demand benefits without tying yourself permanently to one vendor.
[–]bradleyhudson 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago
With Microsoft's history of vendor lock-in, why would you voluntarily move to a platform where they have even more control over your data?
No matter how cool this is, I absolutely won't use it for production code unless there are multiple vendors.
There is no way I will allow Microsoft to double my bill overnight on a whim. Vendor lock-in for software means nothing to me, but in data hosting I cannot ignore it.
[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago
Oh yeah, part of the announcement was that APIs will be published to encourage tools for Eclipse and Ruby (and anyone else who wants to build them)
[–]awj 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago
I think I've seen that song and dance before. Expect them to come in late, be nearly impossible to read when they do arrive, and turn out to be incomplete in critical or at least largely hindering ways.

text:
"Failure syndrome" is one of several terms that teachers commonly use (others include "low self-concept," "defeated," and "frustrated") to describe students who approach assignments with very low expectations of success and who tend to give up at early signs of difficulty. Psychologists have described this phenomenon as "learned helplessness," a slightly more technical definition but referring to a similar pattern of behavior. Unlike students of limited ability, who often fail despite their best efforts, failure syndrome students often fail needlessly because they do not invest their best efforts--they begin tasks half-heartedly and simply give up when they encounter difficulty. This Digest delineates the nature of the problem, suggests strategies for coping with failure syndrome students, and discusses how teachers can help.
Who are Failure Syndrome Students?
Some students, especially in the early grades, show failure syndrome tendencies as part of larger patterns of emotional immaturity (for example, low frustration tolerance or avoidance, inhibition, or adult dependency as reactions to stress). They may focus more on dependency-related desires for attention from the teacher than on trying to learn what an academic activity is designed to teach. This pattern may be a defense mechanism exhibited by some children who feel unable to compete with successful siblings, who lack confidence in their own abilities, or who have acquired failure expectations from their parents or teachers. Parents or teachers may communicate low expectations through a variety of direct and indirect means, especially to students who have been assigned labels such as "learning impaired."
Most failure syndrome symptoms, however, develop through social learning mechanisms centered around experiences with failure. Most children begin school with enthusiasm, but over time many find the experience anxiety-provoking and psychologically threatening. Many children find it difficult to have their performance monitored in classrooms where failure carries the danger of public humiliation.
It is not surprising, therefore, that some students, especially those who have experienced a continuing history of failure or a recent cycle of failure, begin to believe that they lack the ability to succeed. Eventually such students abandon serious attempts to master tasks and begin to concentrate instead on preserving their self-esteem in their own eyes and their reputations in the eyes of others (Ames, 1987; Rohrkemper & Corno, 1988).
What Strategies Help Failure Syndrome Students?
Failure syndrome students need assistance in regaining self-confidence in their academic abilities and in developing strategies for coping with failure and persisting with problem-solving efforts when they experience difficulties. Many specific suggestions have emerged from research on particular theoretical concepts or treatment approaches. Many of these involve what Ames (1987) has called "cognition retraining." Three of the more prominent approaches to cognition retraining are attribution retraining, efficacy training, and strategy training.

Football: Mineiro goalie dismissed for kicking ball into crowd; Pato booed off field
RIO DE JANEIRO (REUTERS) - Atletico Mineiro goalkeeper Victor was sent off for angrily kicking a ball into the crowd after his team's goal-less draw at Internacional in the Brazilian championship.
Corinthians forward Alexandre Pato was jeered by his own fans in a 1-0 win over Coritiba and six-time champions Sao Paulo missed another penalty as they extended their winless run to 12 matches in other matches on Sunday.
South American champions Mineiro (14th on 16 points) played for more than one hour away to former Brazil coach Dunga's Internacional with 10 men, after Fernandinho was sent off for elbowing an opponent, but still managed to hang on for a point.
After the final whistle went, goalkeeper Victor immediately collected the ball, turned around and hoofed it into the Internacional fans behind him.

TUAW first look: Papaya personal filesharing
Papaya is a new utility for personal file sharing, and TUAW got a chance to put through its paces. We were pretty impressed with the ease of use it provides for getting your files across the office... or the globe.
Papaya provides a simple window and a multitude of methods for adding files to be shared. You can drag on to it, manually select files, snap a picture with your iSight or add the currently playing track from iTunes. You can even paste text snippets onto it for quick sharing of code or prose. It allows for the creation of folders – which it can automatically archive and compress at the time of download – and a web interface for navigating remote libraries.
Papaya sets itself up as a web server on port 6900 and takes very little network configuration (you will have to map that port to your machine if you're behind an Airport base station or other NAT router). When you add a file to Papaya, it automatically copies an address to the clipboard (an option in the preferences) which you can send directly to another user. While I wouldn't recommend broadcasting that address far and wide, it makes for a very convenient means of getting a larger file where it needs to go, without dealing with an interim server.
Papaya provides Quick Look previews, and the web interface is iTunes-like and easy to navigate. It can also resize images and define its own folder hierarchy without disturbing your original files. The files are served from where they exist on your drive, everything else is handled on-the-fly. It even provides access control on a per-file basis. Basically, it's file sharing at its most personal.
If you need to share files with friends, family or co-workers quickly and conveniently, give it a shot. The download is free, but a license will cost 20 Euros which, with the current state of the U.S. Dollar, is almost $32. While Papaya is extremely fluid and well though out, I do think that's a bit of a high price point for a file sharing utility, especially considering it's a convenience layer over the built-in functionality of your Mac. Fluid to use and pretty to look at, to be sure, but you'll have to make the decision as to whether the convenience is worth the price.

Each year since 1965, the Tennessee Wildlife Federation (TWF) has honored a select group of leaders in the conservation and stewardship of wildlife and their habitat in Tennessee.
"These awards recognize those individuals and organizations that have made truly meaningful contributions to conservation in Tennessee and to TWF," says Michael Butler, the Federation's chief executive officer. "The current generation is building upon the great work of our past winners, and we are proud to honor their contributions."
The 47th Annual TWF Conservation Achievement Awards were held April 18 at the War Memorial Auditorium in downtown Nashville.
Crossville Mayor J.H. Graham III was named the 2012 Water Conservationist of the Year for facilitating a partnership among multiple agencies and organizations to implement a habitat conservation plan for the Crossville area — the first of its kind — which has led to the identification and protection of at least 23 endangered and threatened species.
Founded in 1946, The Tennessee Wildlife Federation is dedicated to the conservation, sound management and enjoyment of Tennessee's wildlife and natural resources for current and future generations through stewardship, advocacy and education. To learn more, visit www.tnwf.org.

Hayabusa turbo dyno test with Geartronics paddleshift This is a turbocharged Hayabusa powered car of Austria's Georg Pacher undergoing Dyno testing at Radical Performance Engines. Gear shift is by the Geartronics closed-loop GCU, interfaced to a Life Racing F88 engine ECU. Dyno testing does not accurately simulate the real loads on a transmission, but it can be a useful tool to get some baseline parameters, and to help improve engine response for the downshift throttle blipping. One thing we don't do is make claims about gear shift times that have been acheived during Dyno testing, as this would give a false impression of what is possible on track.

Whats funny is that Radical spent multi-million-dollars to design this V8-busa; And Hartley Enterprises spent a fraction of the cost, AND MADE A BETTER ENGINE !

Saudi Shares Fall as Oil Declines on China Demand Concern; Sabic Retreats
Shares in Saudi Arabia, the world's biggest oil exporter, fell as crude declined on concern over demand from China and tension simmered on Iran's naval exercises in the Strait of Hormuz.
The Tadawul All Share Index (SASEIDX) lost less than 0.01 percent to 6,417.73 at the 3:30 p.m. close in Riyadh, after falling the most in more than two weeks. Saudi Basic Industries Corp., the world's biggest petrochemicals maker, retreated 0.8 percent.
Oil fell 0.8 percent to close at $98.83 a barrel yesterday as Chinese manufacturing contracted for a second month in December, spurring concern that demand from the world's second- largest crude-consuming country may slow. Iran last week threatened to block the Strait of Hormuz, a shipping channel through which a sixth of the world's is transported, if sanctions are imposed on its crude exports.
"With the lack of local news and activity in the market, some investors are booking profit and focusing on the geopolitical news in the region," said Samer Darwiche, an equity analyst at Gulfmena Investment in Dubai. "You have also to factor in it's New Year's eve and activity is low."
Saudi Basic (SABIC), which accounts for 12 percent of the benchmark index, retreated to 96.25 riyals. Savola Group gained 1.4 percent to 28.7 riyals. The Saudi Arabian food producer said last week it was selling land in the kingdom and expanding in Egypt.
Saudi Arabia's stock exchange is the only Gulf Arab bourse open on Saturdays.

All Critics (161) | Top Critics (37) | Fresh (152) | Rotten (9) | DVD (6)
Debra Granik's bleak little film is as tough, unflinching and fascinating as the characters who eke out a life amid its cold, gray hills.
Granik balances the pace and intrigue of a mystery thriller with total compassion for Ree, played with much skill by Lawrence.
This unblinking look at America's Red State Crystal Meth Belt is an instant Southern Gothic classic.
Winter's Bone is a genuine triumph, a great movie with astounding performances so natural, so genuine, that you forget it's a movie.
What we've been waiting for: a work of art that grabs hold and won't let go.
With Winter's Bone, Granik has morphed from a director worth watching to one who demands our undivided attention. She's got mine.
Peyton Place meets Deliverance in a meth lab.
In moments of confrontation [Jennifer Lawrence's Ree] is as fearsome as Sigourney Weaver in Aliens, taking on monsters to protect the small and the vulnerable.
Jennifer Lawrence is dazzling as the film's protagonist as she struggles to uncover the truth between her addict father's disappearance.
Winter's Bone is an absorbing and socially conscious piece of work, underwritten by the constant threat of violence.
Gritty and real...
Granik... proves a dab hand with the camera, capturing the starkness of the Ozarks and Ree's situation in a free-flowing and pensive way that transfers the chill of it all on to the screen.
Not having been to this part of the country, I can't say for sure whether Granik has captured it accurately. The point is that it feels genuine.
Granik pays deference to the curious ways of the mountain folk, rejecting the prevailing hillbilly clich�s to depict people with hardy survival instincts in the grip of financial hardship and addiction.
An unflinching portrait of shabby life in the Ozarks, this powerful indie drama features an Oscar-caliber turn from Jennifer Lewis, a real discovery who's only 20, in the lead.
Winter's Bone certainly has its redeeming qualities, particularly its cinematography and a superb lead performance by Jennifer Lawrence, but man, does it feel EMPTY until a gripping sequence near the end.
An acutely gripping, grimly authentic thriller.
full review at Movies for the Masses
Un retrato realista, crudo y duro de ambientes y personajes que viven al margen de la sociedad, de la ley y la moral, y que crece en intensidad como un thriller de suspenso. Estupendas actuaciones de Jennifer Lawrence y John Hawkes.
Uma narrativa densa e multifacetada que permite que aquelas pessoas desafiem nossos preconceitos e se apresentem como indiv�duos imperfeitos, sim, mas jamais unidimensionais.
There is a profound sense of Neorealism percolating beneath Winter's Bone's noirish mystery plot.
... consciously attempting to avoid clich�s can erode authenticity. To director Debra Granik's credit, realism permeates every frame of digital imagery
A gripping movie that graphically portrays poverty as the worst form of violence in the life of a 17-year-old heroine struggling to save her family.
Winter's Bone is boosted by a stellar cast of characters who engender both scares and occasional sympathy.
Winter's Bone is as quiet as a snake. It's a chilling and challenging visit into a remote -- perhaps alien -- world. But while Winter's Bone has anguish and fear, the film is ultimately life-affirming and real.

Carpe Diem Games is an Indie games design team in it's early stages of development, formed by one of the members of the now innactive company Quo Vadis Studios. On Setember 25 2013, it oficially merged with Orcot Productions, and is composed of currently twelve members (Kingsley and Cameron, who live in Brisbane, Australia, Sebastien who lives in Sudbury, Canada, Joshua who lives in North Carolina, USA, Dusty who livs in Colrado Springs, Colorado, USA, Daniel who lives in Aberdeen, Scotland, Alex who lives in Timisoara, Romania, Akhil who lives in Bangalore, India, Joel who lives in Leamington, England, Matan who lives in Israel, Giancarlo who lives in Sterzing, Italy, and Mattia who lives in Milan Italy). The team is in the early stages of design for an adventure-puzzle game, titled Conundrum.
Carpe Diem's original Level Designer, Matt from the UK, has left the company. He has been swiftly replaced, with Josh from the USA.
Posted by KingsCC on Jul 12th, 2013
Over the last week, here at Carpe Diem, there have been some shake-ups. Our original Level Designer, Matt, announced to us last Saturday, that he had recieved a more lucrative offer from another games development comapny, and that he was leaving us, to join them. We were sad to see him go, but wished him the best in his future endeavours. Now finding ourselves, one skills set short of a complete team, we immediately started avertising for a replacement for Matt. We can happily announce, that our advert has indeed paid off, with Level Designer Joshua Ainsley, of North Carolina, USA, successfully applying to join the team. With Josh's addition, our skills set is complete once more, with only a possible second preogrammer still needed.

"Got the phone on release date and I LOVE IT!!!"
4.5 starson by ZKhan3Pros: WP8, BoomSound, MicroSDxc, 4G LTE, UNLIMITED DATA FROM SPRINT, the soft plastic feels great
Cons: 8 GB internal memory, NOT THE RESOLUTION (surprisingly), microSD slot was hard to find
Summary: I was a bit iffy buying this phone on the first day because no media outlet even had their hands on it, and the color is described as California Blue but looks kinda purple. I also was a little timid because the resolution was WVGA, but when i got to the store, I couldn't tell the resolution was so low, it looks just about up to par with the s4! Plus, I was waiting for sprint to get the windows phone for almost a year. When I got I tested out the boomsound (w/ beats) immediately. yes, the beats amplifier isnt the best, but for a phone, the sound quality is AMAZING. And because it's windows phone 8, the phone runs extremely smoothly even with 10 apps open, on the 1.4 GHz processor. The one bad thing was that I spent about three hours calling sprint trying to figure out the where the microSD card slot is (you slide the back w/ the HTC logo up). THIS PHONE HAS EXCEEDED MY EXPECTATION, AND I AM SUPER HAPPY THAT I GOT IT.
