(TW: discussion of results of abortion being illegal)
Hoping Mississippi WILL become the (only) abortion-free state.
Once upon a time, I was a young lady in Libya. Abortion is illegal there. The only way to get an abortion was if you were both rich and well connected. We lived in the slums and this was not the case.
Friends that could now never have a child.
Family who suffered from infection and permanent damage to their bodies.
I laid my sister to rest.
This is the result of inaccessible abortion. It doesn't go away. Abortion being illegal doesn't give any more support to those who need it, it doesn't put money in the pockets of the impoverished pregnant person, it doesn't cause someone to turn away from their hearts.
You may not find abortion ideal, but this is the reality of illegal abortion. There is undoubtedly someone in your life who has had an abortion. One in four will have had one by age 30. Think if instead if one in four people had to seek an illegal abortion or be forced to give birth to a child. Think of the injured and the dead. Think of the children left behind by people who died seeking an abortion, not being able to feed one. more. hungry. mouth. It makes me sick that this can happen here. I came here to get away from that.
I absolutely will not stand by and let this happen. Fuck that.
My Grandmother was a nurse from the 40s to the 90s. I got to grow up hearing her horror stories of what the emergency ward was like before abortion was legal. They had whole wards full of women slowly dying from poisoning themselves with various cleaning chemicals, or bleeding to death from botched backstreet abortions. It was completely unnecessary and horrific.
Anti-abortionists aren't pro-life in any sense of the term, really. They're just masking their anti-women, anti-POC, and anti-poverty attitudes behind Christian sentiments.

Check out these Warren Buffett images:
Obama Visits Silicon Valley
Image by jurvetson
I brought the kids to meet Obama this evening. We took a photo with him and he signed our photo book, which opens with photos of him at this very same house in 2007.
"Warren Buffett's secretary should not be paying more taxes than Warren Buffett."
"My friend Joe Biden likes to say 'Don't compare me with the Almighty. Compare me with the alternative."
"We have a governor who is denying climate change while the state is burning. [laughter at Perry] Literally."
"2008 was an important election, but 2012 will be an even more important election."
Verbatim quotes from video:
"I don't think we fully grasped, at least in 2007 the full magnitude of the challenges we we going to be facing. We have now gone through the worst financial crisis and the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression. So, for most of our lifetimes, we have never seen anything like what we have seen over the past two and one half years."
"We knew that we were going have to not only put more money into our education system but we are going to have to revamp it, so that not just a few of our kids are prepared for the 21st Century, but all of our kids are ready for the 21st century,"
"Overseas we knew that it was unsustainable for us to continue two wars and to think that the only way we were going to be able to project American power around the world was through our military, and we had to remind ourselves that diplomacy and the power of our example and the power of our values ultimately was going to make more of a difference in terms of how influential we are around the world.
Well, I'm back to report to you, my stockholders."
Chris Cornell of Soundgarden performed an acoustic version of Black Hole Sun.

Childhood Obesity in the News
What We Don't Fund
Because RWJF's strategy for reversing the childhood obesity epidemic hinges on changing policies and environments, we generally do not support projects that provide only information or education. Because we focus on preventing obesity, we do not invest in research regarding medical or surgical treatment of obesity. In keeping with Foundation policy, we give preference to proposals developed by public agencies and tax-exempt organizations.
RWJF does not accept unsolicited proposals for its work to prevent childhood obesity. We issue specific solicitations for proposals and ideas throughout the year. If you register to receive funding alerts through the Foundation's website at www.rwjf.org, you will receive e-mail notices of each funding opportunity.

Students protest decision for SC leaders By ED CURDA Elections Committee denies petition The Student Council Elections Committee upheld Tuesday its decision made last week that no primary election was possible for the positions of council president and vice-president, and that the sole candidates for each office should be declared the winner. Acting in a judicial capacity, the committee announced its ruling after an official protest had been lodged over the March 5 decision. The six students who protested objected to the committee's action declaring Tom White and Mike McConnell, A&S juniors, the winners of the council presidency and vice-presidency on the grounds that it "violated precedence, the Statutes of Procedure and the Constitution of the Student Council," and that it denied "the student to cast his vote for those officials, either by voting for candidates officially on the ballot or by writing in a candidate of his choice." Five of the six signers of the protest, Dave Denny, Steve Martinez, Glenn Nackoney, Ron Petitjean and Tom Struve met with the Elections Committee Saturday afternoon to presentpresent their arguments against the committee's decision and to allow the committee an opportunity to explain its action. The five students brought with them a petition with 259 student signatures to show support for their cause. However, the petition was not officially submitted to the committee because a time limit of 72 hours had lapsed at 5 p.m. Friday. The students' protest centered around two main arguments: 1. The Student Council Constitution provides that the "election of the president and vice-president (of the Student Council) . . . will be by a vote of the entire university." 2. Write-in ballots were acceptable in previous elections. Furthermore, the Statutes of Procedure implicitly allows for write-in ballots in primary elections: "If a student be nominated for an office during the primary election, though his name not be on the ballot. . ." Mary Fiser, committee chairman, explained to the protesting students that the decision stemmed from the unprecedented situation of only one person filing for the offices of president and vice-president. "The Council Constiution, the Statutes of Precedure and Roberts' Rules of Order had no provision for the situation," she said, "and at first, we (the committee) didn't know what to do. If we were to go ahead and hold an election, it would technically be neither a primary nor a run-off. And none of us liked the idea of putting out a ballot with only one name on it." "Furthermore, we were under no pressure whatever to rule one way or another," she said. "No one even tried to file late during the ten days between the close of filing and March 5 when we reported our decision to the council. There was no protest or opposition of any kind until after our decision was announced." Miss Fiser said that one reason for the decision was that "the Elections Committee may supplement this code with the approval of the President of the Student Body in order to facilitate the performance of the elections listed in this code." "In view of these two bases, the lack of student interest in filing, the needlessness of a primary and the provision in the constitution that two candidates are required for a run-off election," Miss Fiser said, "the committee ruled to declare White and McConnell the winners of their respective offices. This was the decision we reported to the council March 5." Council President Tom Wright interjected that the committee's March 5 decision was in the capacity of a legislative body supplementing the election code, and could have been overruled. "However," Wright added, "since the council did not formally approve or disapprove the committee's decision, it was thereby legally approved by acquiescence." Petijean challenged the decision, pointing to what he termed an inconsistency in the elections code. "The code states that the 'election of the President and Vice-President will be by a vote of the entire university,," he said, "whereas for the school and college presidents and representatives, it states that they shall be selected.' I interpret "select' as opening the possibility of declaring a lone candidate the winner, but a 'vote of the entire university' indicates a ballot election." Denny added that there is quite a difference between "selection by schools and a vote of the entire university. The difference lies not only in semantics but in constituency as well," he said, "and I don't think the precedent stated holds." Committee member Mike Morgan commented that Petijean's interpretation of "election" seemed too narrow."An election is more than just marking an 'X' on a ballot," he said. "It is an entire process which includes filing." After two hours of discussion, the Elections Committee moved into closed session for deliberation. At 1 p.m. Tuesday, after a total of 20 hours of debate and consideration, Miss Fiser announced that since "the purpose of a primary election is to narrow the choices of candidates for each position to two, . . . since it is impossible to further narrow a field of one candidate, and since two candidates are required for a run-off election, there could be no vote of the entire University." The committee, based upon the authority of the Statutes of Procedure which allow for supplementation of the code, decided that the sole candidates for each office should become the winner. "We have shown that there was no other course of action for the committee to take but to declare that there was no legal grounds on which to hold a primary or a runoff election," she said. Symposium opens Latin America Week; lectures, style show, exhibits included By SHERYL BUTLER A symposium Monday, entitled "Continent In Transition: The Role of the United States in Latin America," will formally open "Focus: Latin America," a three day program presented by the Student Union in conjunction with the 250 th Anniversary of New Orleans.

China Lounge
Stylish without being snootily exclusive, this leading mainstream venue boasts four areas playing electro, house, hip hop and R&B. A huge laughing Buddha looks down on the main floor.
Stylish without being snootily exclusive, this leading mainstream venue boasts four areas playing electro, house, hip hop and R&B. A huge laughing Buddha looks down on the main floor.
The grunge factor is high at this student club, which may be just what the doctor ordered as an antidote to highbrow burnout. Monday movie nights and salsa nights also provide diversions.
When many visitors think of Hamburg nightlife, they immediately think of Angie's. Floy, 'the white queen of soul', plays live as guests - sometimes celebrities - sip cocktails genteelly.
This city centre microbrewery produces a very fine unfiltered beer that's redolent with herbs and hops. The menu is casual and has many regional specialities and locally caught seafood.
Two bronze elephants guard the entrance to this Viennese-style coffee house in a superb art nouveau building topped by a Chinese-style turret. Good for a stylish coffee-and-cake break.
It may be named for a Sex Pistols song, but this Altstadt haunt ain't no punk club. It's a shape-shifter really, whose cellar walls vibrate to different sounds nightly. Live bands, too.
Still occupying its impressive 'tent palace' in Fröttmaning (near the Allianz Arena), Munich's answer to London's West End hosts touring road shows such as Grease, Mamma Mia and Tommy .
Self-consciously trendy, this lounge-club is on a mission to sex up this city with its virginal white decor, eye-candy crowd and uber-picky doormen. House and techno dominate the decks.
An 80-seat art-house cinema with offbeat non-dubbed movies from around the world and an engaging wine bar. Situated 1.2km due north of Konstablerwache, just off Eckenheimer Landstrasse.
No German skills are needed to enjoy the line-up of acrobats, comedians, magicians, artistes and other variety acts performing under the starry-sky ceiling of a nostalgic theatre hall.
This company puts on glitzy variety shows where the varied line-up may include anything from snake women to jugglers and trapeze acts. Tickets are sold online, by phone and in person.
The living-room look makes this small but legendary club feel warm and welcoming. Musicwise, expect indie, retro electronic and whatever the mostly student-age crowd has on their iPod.
For a glamour vibe without the velvet rope, beat a trail to this stylish glass cube in the Hafen's Kreativkai. Soft lighting gives even pasty-faced hipsters a healthy glow. Good tunes.
A slightly older crowd can be found chatting and lingering over the wide range of Haake-Beck beers in this modern Bierhaus on the Schlachte bar and restaurant drag; it also sells food.
Hip Kasse is a venerable student club, with an assorted bag of parties, concerts, drum workshops and whatever else gets people off the couch. Three floors of action, for young and old.
The booking policy at this legendary music club in a former cinema is top-notch, with quality jazz, world and avant-garde acts featuring both promising newcomers and bona fide greats.

The really big question about UEStudio...
So, earlier this week, I finally took the plunge and bought UEStudio. So here is my question: "Why in the world did I wait so long to try this program?!?"
I have been using UltraEdit since version 5. I have always been pleased with it. I have tried many editors, but always came back to UltraEdit because it has always been the superior choice.
However, I have always been reluctant to spend money on UEStudio. I believed that UltraEdit served every possible need I had and that for the work I do UEStudio would just be a lot of unneeded features so I did not want to spend the extra money on it. All I can say is, it was well worth the money!
I have been taking time off from work to go through the UEStudio Feature tour to get a handle on all the new features and see how they can help me to be more productive. I must say, this is time well spent. Considering a programmer is always having to "go back to school" for new language versions, new frameworks, new standards, etc., this is educational time well spent.
Let me give everyone some advice... If you haven't done so already, take some time to really sit down and explore all the features of UltraEdit or UEStudio. See how each feature can be used to help you be more productive. You may not need every feature, but you might need to know it's there, because there may come a day where you do need it. As a developer, I spend most of my day in my editor/IDE. It's what I literally spend most of my time with. I spend more time with my editor/IDE more than I see my wife during the work week. It's good to get to know it better, if you're going to be spending a lot of time with it.
Ok, so I really created this thread for a rant on why I didn't try this fabulous product sooner, and to thank IDM for another marvelous product. For my next birthday, I'll be asking for a gift of more IDM products, like UltraCompare Professional, and maybe lifetime upgrades for UEStudio. Awesome.
Next step, I'm going to try to program a wrapper/container to allow me to put UEStudio on my USB drive like I did for UltraEdit. I simply don't think I should leave home without it.

Mundial Hotel Lisbon Guest Reviews (62)
Great buffet breakfast. The location is excellent right downtown close to shopping and restaurants. Staff was friendly and helpful. The room was nice, the only negative was the uncomfortable mattress.
Victor and Rachelle wrote on March 23, 2012
Front desk staff showed enthusiasm in recommendations and made some excellent restaurant bookings.We would have liked to find a way of striking out on our own using public transport.Perhaps we hoped for too much with no Portuguese of our own but trying to be one of the locals and dealing with their travel c onsiderations is an interesting part of travelling.So that is maybe a bit picky which we do not want to be as the hotel staff were really good.
Drums wrote on October 25, 2011
The hotel was great. Nice and clean and in a central location within walking distance to the metro station and downtown lisbon. Shops and restaurants were also very close. The room was great, clean and spacious.

Much ado about nothing. There is an impending economic crisis looming larger with each passing year (month, week, whatever) that no amount of half-hearted, dog-and-pony show tricks -- including the tea party´s -- will forestall.The chickens are coming home to roost. Mutant chickens with teeth. It will be ugly.
One sad thing, if you read the first paragraph, you can tell the writer has no idea the difference between the House and the Senate. Maroon....in the media. Who knew?
Bohner is just like a Democrat, loves self power and hates the United States.
There is so much bias in the first few lines of this article I couldn´t even read past that point. But I am very disappointed that my representative (Kevin Brady) voted for this fiscal stiff.
I´m proud of mine (John Culberson) for voting against it, but Kevin Brady gets it right most of the time so I will be interested to hear his reasoning - he´s supposed to be on 700 AM radio tomorrow with his explanation.

Some Great Falls pre-schoolers welcomed a special visitor on Friday, as Shawn Running Crane came to sing and dance with the kids while also delivering an important message.
Running Crane dressed up in traditional Native American clothing and head-dress.
He says by introducing the kids to different cultures, he's promoting tolerance and will help decrease problems like bullying.
He believes many of the values within Native American culture can help make the kids successful later in life.
Running Crane said, "To be respectful of other people, it doesn't matter what race they are. Like I said, this face paint represents all the races. We all have to learn to make better choices in this world, so hopefully when you wake up today or tomorrow you learn to make better choices. That's what life is all about."
Crane made his own head-dress to show off to the children, and he also brought some of his artwork along.

I run a business that works to provide electronic goods to our customers, and we have serious problems with customers defrauding us by claiming failure of delivery or similar through our current processor, paypal.
As such paypal is shutting down our account due to an excessive number of reversed charges from our customers, and we need to find a new provider. I have contacted amazon payments and google checkout but they won't work with our fraud rate.
What options do I have for payment providers for companies that work in high fraud industries?

We bought this slide as a big sister gift for my two and a half year old daughter who is the size of a 4-5 year old. She loves it and fits in it well. It is very versatile and can easily be used inside or out. My only issue is that there is no lip at the top to make it easier for my daughter to sit down herself. Hopefully, when she's older, she can master it, but for now my husband has to help her sit down after she climbs up the ladder.

We bought this slide for our 2 year old daughter. She loves sliding on it, but it is a little scary for us parents. The top of the slide is small, and it is hard for her to get off the stairs and onto the slide. I have to keep my hands near her while she is playing on it. Also, the slide is a little narrow-so if you have bigger kids, it may not be a wise choice. It seems pretty sturdy so far, but again, parents must stay near children at all times when playing on slide.

By Chelsea full time mama
from Vail, az
My 3 year old loves this slide he is a lot bigger than most three year olds so I was worried that it would not be sturdy enough for him but it is very strong and he has so much fun going up and down the slide. This slide was worth every penny spent. And I love that u can fold it up and slide it under a bed or in the closet when u r done with it for the day.
Great Slide
By Mother of Two
from Atlanta, GA
I have two children, ages 3 and 2. The whole family loves this slide. Its a great height. My 2 year old isn't scared (neither am I-it's very sturdy!) and my 3 year old isn't close to outgrowing it (and he is tall for his age). Best of all, this summer it has been raining a ton and, while some of our other outdoor toys got dirty and gross (I am not good about taking the toys inside), this slide looks like we just bought it. Even the stickers stayed on. I am very happy with this product and I would be interested in buying more Step 2 products in the future if they are this kind of quality.

Great Slide!
By Laura

First of all, this is a great slide.I thought I was getting the colors pictured, but I got the maroon and tan- (I was trying to match the step 2 sand and water table).My son just turned 4 and this is the perfect size. I like the wide base and thick wide steps.
Happy grandson

Fast delivery to store, our grandson loves the slide
Great slide for a 2 and 4 year old
By Loki
from Miami
It was very easy to put together and fairly light considering its size. Our 4 yo and 22 month old were up and sliding in no time. They love that we can move it anywhere for them to play with. Now that grandpa has a slide at their house, they get a spot to spend their energy every time they are over. It folds up and gets tuck away when the kids leave. WIN-WIN...

Clip1: MTV Movie Awards 2007 Best Kiss: Will Farrell + Sacha CohenMTV Movie Awards Get Dirty: Baron Cohen, Ferrell Mash; Rihanna Sizzles; Silverman Says 'Bleep!'
Show was less about awards and more about moments.
By James Montgomery
By now, you know the formula for the typical Hollywood awards show: Take a red carpet, add some diamond-encrusted dresses, a few golden statuettes and a handful of fairly awkward political appeals and/or acceptance speeches, bake for four-plus hours, sit back and try to enjoy.
By that standard — or any standard, for that matter — the 2007 MTV Movie Awards were not your typical glitzy soiree (though Jack Nicholson was there, front and center and randy as ever). Rather, they were a wonderfully profane, incredibly irreverent goof on the staid Hollywood system, a full-blown, Spartan-esque assault led by potty-mouthed host Sarah Silverman and bolstered by a whole lot of jaw-dropping, sure-to-be blogged-about moments.
Like, for example, a skin-crawlingly awkward Paris-Hilton-goes-to-jail joke lobbed by Miss Silverman during her opening monologue that was met with silence from Hilton (see "Paris Hilton Talks About Jail: 'I'm Obviously A Little Scared' ") and a whole lot of catcalls from the audience. (Note: this probably marked the first time in history that a majority of the U.S. population felt sorry for Paris Hilton — for a few seconds, anyway.)
Or the aforementioned Nicholson, who ambled up to accept his award for Best Villain and delivered a rambling, raspy-voiced acceptance speech that included a shout-out to Martin Scorsese, a nod to our troops overseas and a solidly placed F-bomb.
(Watch Nicholson and Silverman give the censors a workout and Rihanna and Jay-Z heat up the stage in this Movie Awards recap.)
Oh yeah: There were awards too! They were given out almost, it would seem, as a respite from the profanity ("It's live TV! Everybody curse!"). Fans of pirates had plenty to be happy about: "Pirates of the Carribean: Dead Man's Chest" took home the Golden Popcorn for Best Movie. Johnny Depp — looking Oscars above the waist (smooth sportcoat) and "21 Jump Street" below (ratty flannel knotted on his hips) — won the Best Performance award for his turn as the swashbuckling Captain Jack Sparrow.
Sacha Baron Cohen won a pair of awards, for Best Comedic Performance and Best Kiss — the latter a victory he shared with his "Talladega Nights" co-star Will Ferrell in a sensual, beard-on-beard smooch that quickly evolved into a serious grappling session that rivaled anything in "300."
And speaking of those shirtless Spartans, "300" star Gerard Butler scored the award for Best Fight thanks to his mind-blowing battle against the Uber Immortal.
Other than that, "300" — which went into the night with more nominations (five) than any other film — came up short. But honestly, perhaps the biggest success of the Movie Awards was that they managed to make the event less about the awards and more about the electric charge you get when you pack a bunch of ready-to-party stars into a room, throw in the irreverent Silverman and add pair of high-profile musical performers to spice things up.
Rihanna and Jay-Z delivered a muscled-up version of her summertime smash "Umbrella" — all showers of sparks, power chords, synth stabs and (you guessed it) a pink umbrella or eight, with Rihanna herself heating things up in her patent-leather summer finest.
Later, Amy Winehouse vamped and amped her way through the strangely timely (given the sheer amount of jokes on the topic during the show) "Rehab," her beehive reaching epic heights and her attitude cutting through the sheer star-power in the house. Josh Duhamel and Fergie were seen singing along on camera.
Hot as those performances were, the evening was more about moments. Like a pair of appearances by Bruce Willis (who had censors on edge thanks to a lightning-quick "Yippee kay ay, motherf-----"); a hirsute, portly guy in a skin-covered Speedo who forcibly removed those who dared to go long on their acceptance speeches; Robin Williams in an inexplicable kilt; and, uh, Dane Cook?
They were all there — incredibly, gloriously live — and if you missed it, shame on you. Because these were the kinds of things that probably won't be allowed to happen next year. The 2007 MTV Movie Awards proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that it doesn't really matter who won or lost — it's more about showing up, loosening up and having a really great time.
And, by that formula, they were a huge success: a big, ballsy, bleeping one.
Here's a list of the show's big winners:
» Best Movie: "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest"
» Best Villain: Jack Nicholson, "The Departed"
» Best Performance: Johnny Depp, "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest"
» Breakthrough Performance: Jaden Smith, "The Pursuit of Happyness"
» Best Comedic Performance: Sacha Baron Cohen, "Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan"
» Best Kiss: Will Ferrell and Sacha Baron Cohen, "Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby"
» Best Fight: Gerard Butler vs. the Uber Immortal, "300"
» Best Summer Movie You Haven't Seen Yet: "Transformers"

Coe College used a big second quarter, scoring 31 points and held the Buena Vista offense to 242 yards of total offense, as the Kohawks shutout the Beavers during Saturday's Iowa Conference opener, 51-0.
The Kohawks (4-0, 1-0 IIAC), who completed their first 20 pass attempts of the game, got a five-yard touchdown pass after a Beaver fumble early in the first quarter before adding a two-yard rushing touchdown late in the quarter for a 13-0 advantage.
The Kohawks then forced the Beavers to punt on their first three possessions of the second quarter and followed each one with scoring drives and a trio of rushing touchdowns. They then capitalized on BVU's second fuumble of the half and added their fourth touchdown of the half to go in front 41-0. A late field goal made the score 44-0 at the half.
Coe would added its final touchdown in the third quarter before each team was held scoreless in the fourth.
Senior John Hill rushed for a season-high 96 yards to help lead the Beaver rushing attack, while sophomore Dylan Barrett added 45 yards on seven carries. Quarterback Bobby Brown completed 10-of-23 attempts through the air for 114 yards, while being intercepted twice and sacked four times.
As a team, BVU turned the ball over four times in the game. Coe, meanwhile, posted 282 yards through the air and 251 more on the ground.
Defensively, Nick Plueger turned in 13 total tackles with Brady Randall right behind with eight.
Buena Vista is now 0-4 on the year (0-1 IIAC) and will return to J. Leslie Rollins Stadium next Saturday for the first time since opening day when it host Wartburg College at 1:00pm. The game has also been tabbed as Take a Kid to the Game Day.

Agencies Face Challenges in Implementing Effective Software Patch Management Processes
GAO-04-816T, Jun 2, 2004
Additional Materials:

Flaws in software code can introduce vulnerabilities that may be exploited to cause significant damage to federal information systems. Such risks continue to grow with the increasing speed, sophistication, and volume of reported attacks, as well as the decreasing period of the time from vulnerability announcement to attempted exploits. The process of applying software patches to fix flaws--patch management--is critical to helping secure systems from attacks. At the request of the House Committee on Government Reform and the Subcommittee on Technology, Information Policy, Intergovernmental Relations, and the Census, GAO reviewed the (1) reported status of 24 selected agencies in performing effective patch management practices, (2) tools and services available to federal agencies, (3) challenges to this endeavor, and (4) additional steps that can be taken to mitigate risks created by software vulnerabilities. This testimony highlights the findings of GAO's report, which is being released at this hearing.
Agencies are generally implementing certain common patch management-related practices, such as inventorying their systems and providing information security training. However, they are not consistently implementing other common practices. Specifically, not all agencies have established patch management policies and procedures. Moreover, not all agencies are testing all patches before deployment, performing documented risk assessments of major systems to determine whether to apply patches, or monitoring the status of patches once they are deployed to ensure that they are properly installed. Commercial tools and services are available to assist agencies in performing patch management activities. These tools and services can make patch management processes more efficient by automating time-consuming tasks, such as scanning networks and keeping up-to-date on the continuous releases of new patches. Nevertheless, agencies face significant challenges to implementing effective patch management. These include, among others, (1) the high volume and increasing frequency of needed patches, (2) patching heterogeneous systems, (3) ensuring that mobile systems such as laptops receive the latest patches, and (4) dedicating sufficient resources to assessing vulnerabilities and deploying patches. Agency officials and computer security experts have identified several additional measures that vendors, the security community, and the federal government can take to address the risks associated with software vulnerabilities. These include, among others, adopting more rigorous software engineering practices to reduce the number of coding errors that create the need for patches, implementing successive layers of defense mechanisms at strategic points in agency information systems, and researching and developing new technologies to help uncover flaws during software development.

A blast has sounded in an area of the Afghan capital that is home the U.S. Embassy, the international military coalition headquarters and many high-ranking Afghan officials.
AP reporters heard the explosion shortly after 8 a.m. Wednesday local time. An alarm started going off at the U.S. Embassy, warning staff to take cover. Kabul police chief spokesman Hashmatullah Stanikzai says that there was some sort of attack in Wazir Akbar Khan neighborhood and he expected that there were casualties but he had no further details.
International military coalition spokesman Jamie Graybeal says there are no initial reports of rockets or other any other munitions inside the headquarters compound.

This is not a solution; it just (sometimes) gets the machine up & running again by releasing the anti-flood switch.
The cause of the flood still needs to be identified. This can be one of a number of things; internal leak' blockage, overfoaming caused by incorrect, rinse aid dosage, obstruction of spray arms, PCB failure or motor failure to name a few.
Also, the longer the machine is sitting there flooded the more chance there is that internal components such as the motor will become damaged (you'll know this happens when you turn your dishwasher on and your lights go out).
Those wanting to have a go themselves please remember to pull the plug first otherwise it may be time to call in a pro (Repairs@)

It's just one week into the spring wild turkey season and I'm already tagged out!
I took advantage of the weather forecast and went hunting before work yesterday (Monday) morning. It was a good decision. My buddy, Fran and I decided to hunt opposite ends of a large field where we've seen a lot of turkeys. It's the same field where I got my first turkey of the year last Friday morning. This time, Fran would sit in the north blind, and I would move to the southeast side of the field and sit in a brush blind we built a couple of weeks before the season opened.
We arrived well before legal light and got set up. I put a Featherlite hen decoy about 14 yards away and settled into the blind to wait for first light, which would come in about fifteen minutes. No sooner did I sit down when I looked up to see a turkey silhouetted against the sky in a tree no more than 30 yards from me. Not good! Obviously, the bird had been watching my every move.
At this point, I figured there wasn't anything I could do but wait to see what happens. I expected the turkey to fly directly away from me. Then, almost exactly 30 minutes before sunrise, all of the tom turkeys around the field started gobbling from their roosts. There were at least four different gobblers I was hearing, and the bird above me wasn't one of them. The reason – the one watching me was a hen. As the light improved, I was able to get a good look at her with my binoculars. And, she didn't seem to be the least bit concerned about my presence. She was more interested in preening herself.
After about 10 minutes of listening to non-stop gobbling, I noticed movement on a limb near the hen, and realized it was another turkey that I hadn't seen roosted there. It was behind a lot of new foliage. When I looked at it through the binoculars, I could tell it was a mature tom with a bright red head and a decent beard. Then, while still glassing it, the bird leaned forward and flew off the roost – directly to my hen decoy.
I wasn't the least bit ready for a shot opportunity. I had to slowly put the binoculars in my pocket so my movement wouldn't cause the tom to spot me. Then, I had to pick up my bow a draw it… more movement. It only took about 30 seconds, but it seemed like a lot longer in a situation like that.
I came to full draw and prepared to wait for the gobbler to move into one of my shooting lanes from the blind. When hunting from a blind with archery gear, you have to make small openings in the blind to shoot through, while still being able to utilize the cover offered by the blind. Well, the tom must have seen me draw back on my bow and he started to walk away. So, I quickly decided to stand up and take aim. At this point, I have to say that all of the practicing I've done in recent months at 3D shoots really paid off. My confidence was high as I released my arrow and made a perfect 25-yard shot on the turkey.
There it was… only the 6th day of a month long turkey season and I was tagged out. In Massachusetts, you're only allowed two turkey tags per year. This tom weighed 15 1/2 pounds, had a 9 inch beard and 7/8" spurs. Smaller than the one I got Friday morning, but a mature bird, nonetheless.
About an hour later, Fran also got a tom at the other end of the field. We had quite the show to watch, as two toms fought for about 45 minutes in the middle of the field before he was able to get one of them.
In summary, I can say it was a brief, but outstanding season.
