A mean mother insists on knowing where her children are at all times...who their friends are and what they do. A mean mother breaks the child labor law by making her children work...washing dishes, making beds, learning to cook and doing other cruel and unpleasant chores. A mean mother makes life miserable for her offspring by making them tell the truth. A mean mother produces teenagers who are wiser and more sensible. A mean mother can smile with secret delight and pride when she hears her own grandchildren call their parents mean. What the world needs are more mean mothers...and fathers".$34.99 -

"A Bend in the Road. When we feel we have nothing left to give & we are sure that the song has ended, When our day seems over & the shadows fall & the darkness of the night has descended, Where we can go to find the strength to valiantly keep on trying? Where can we find the hand that will dry the tears that the heart is crying? There's but one place to go & that is to God, & dropping all pretence & pride, we can pour out our problems without restraint & gain strength with Him at our side. And together we stand at life's cross roads & view what we think is the end, but God has a much bigger vision, & He tells us it's only a bend. For the road goes on and is smoother, and the pause in the song is a rest, & the part that's unsung & unfinished is the sweetest & richest & best. So rest & relax & grow stronger. Let go & let God share your load. Your work is not finished or ended, you've just come to a bend in the road".$34.99 -

We recommend pairing the Annette Tunic in White with our Spirit Bra.
The white version is somewhat transparent - contrary to the photograph. You can absolutely see yoga pants and bra detail. You would definitely need to wear a camisole with it. Sooooo disappointing.
Love this! I bought it is bright green several months ago. It has held up and washes great! I am 5'7" and it is a great length. Every time I wear it, people say how much they love my Annette Tunic! I just ordered another in black.
This will be my third winter of wearing this top. I bought it immediately when it first was shown. It's my favorite top for comfort, versatility and high fashion. You can't go wrong.
This tunic looked so lovely on the model, but I wasn't sure what to expect. It lays & fits just as lovely on the rest of us. The black is not a dark jet black, but a slightly lighter "heathered" black color. I've received several compliments and may order in another color. Good value!
Yowza!!!! The white was sold out so fast - I didn't even get a chance. Are the Zobha elves sewing up another round of White Annette Tunics? Please, please, pretty please!!!
Hope they bring it back in all the colors
This is a beautiful and unique top, and I love everything about it. I ordered it in Iris since it was the only color in my size at the time. I rarely wear this color, but I think that's about to change!
I absolutely love this top--luxurious and cozy.
I'm seriously not exaggerating when I say I have practically lived in my Annette Tunic in Midnight Blue since I got it a couple of weeks ago! Definitely need to order a couple more in some other colors!!! Great versatile piece and extremely comfortable and stylish.
I love this top! It is so soft and cozy, yet classy enough to wear out. I am between a 4-6, and the M fit perfectly. I'm thinking about getting another one in pink...
Super sexy, cozy, and I love the bell sleeves. Goes with everything!
Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous! People stop me on the street to ask me where I bought this top--a real head turner and so comfy and easy to care for--doesn't wrinkle and I can throw it in the washer and dryer.
I have this tunic in black and recently wore it with Zobha leggings on a cross-country flight. Comfortable and chic. Only complaint is that the front of the tunic is starting to pill after just a few washes.
Would love this in your deep purple or in garnet. So soft, washes well, drapes well, feels like I could sleep in it but dresses up so well! Tons of compliment. Husband noticed it!
Very flattering and very comfortable. From the very first time I wore it, I have gotten lots of complements! I hope they bring it back in other colors!!
I just received this top in pepper green. It's more like an emerald color - brighter than I thought. I wear size 4 in zobha clothing but I ordered a medium. The fit is nice over the hips but the sleeves are about 4 inches too long - they cover my entire hand! This is incredibly impractical for doing anything in the top except lounging. I love the idea of this top, but unfortunately I am returning it.
Thought I would LOVE this tunic........ but its just OK. Black isn't super black- so when worn over my yoga leggings- it kinds greys out, giving it an old /worn feel. Material is okay too- but doesn't drape as prettily as I thought it would. I like this tunic- but not crazy in love w/ it.

Slovenia is opening the biggest casino in the country, a cooperative project between Harrah's Entertainment and the Slovenian HIT Group. The casino will offer 70 table games and 1,500, insignificant numbers compared to any American casino, but for Slovenia this is the largest casino project ever. This new casino, half the size of any average American casino, will be testing the water in Europe for the concept of an American casino; an all-including gambling & entertaining complex.
According to Harrah's spokesperson Alberto Lopez, an American casino stands for a casino that brings people the all including Vegas gambling experience. People should be swept of their feet by the sight of the casino complex, dazzled by all it has to offer and completely satisfied after spending an evening and night here.
Slovenia is not the only guinea pig for the American casino concept, in Ciudad Real, Spain; another American Casino is build that will represent the Vegas experience.
The director of the Institute for the Study of Gambling & Commercial Gaming at the University of Nevada in Reno, William Eadington, states that the European casino, especially compared to the American casino is incredibly small and lackluster, and is only visited by a handful of people who happen to stumble in by accident.
James Rutherford from the International Gaming & Wagering Business in London claims that it's very important for Americans that want to start up an American casino in Europe, to realize that Europeans have many cultural, linguistic and historical differences, so the concept can't be applied in the same way on all locations. Furthermore, Rutherford believes that many European governments will be against building huge American casino complexes, therefore project developers have to be prepared to shrink the size of their project. Rutherford concludes that the Vegas styled American casino works in the United States, because the Americans are used to them, and Europe isn't there yet.
According to Rutherford Europe needs a smaller variant of an American casino. He is however convinced that size doesn't matter and the American casino variant will work in Europe and could become a highly successful business. Rutherford uses the example of the Casinos Austria International, who earned 704 million Euros ($804,830,000) in 2004 with a total of 9,900 slots and 1,100 tables, numbers much smaller than the total of slots and tables of Station Casinos (gaming and entertainment company) in the Vegas area alone.

The owners of the hotel exude hospitality and helpfulness. They helped us plan our time in Cappadocia, recommending free walking trails, organizing a... trip to see dervishes, and helping us find a tour that covered the major sights as we were without a car. One night, the hotel did a Turkish barbeque, and it was fun to get to meet other guests from around the world. (America, Australia, Hong Kong, Sweden, South Africa, Spain.) We stayed in a cave room, and my husband really loved it. Staying in Goreme was the right choice for our time in Cappadocia, and staying at Caravansarai was the right choice, too. Breakfast was great. بواسطة BZ من Washington, DC بتاريخ 2013/07/30

Patty BiehlerMy name is Patty Biehler and I am an artist/crafter, gardener, mother, and blogger as well and much more. I have always loved the internet and all it gives us. I started drawing and painting when I was very young as all do but it just seemed to stay with me and I just loved it. I focused more on it in my years of school and taught art in later years. When I became a mother I knew I had to redo a crib for my child. I repainted the crib with a teady bear scene of football and soccer play. It ended up such a hit by friends and family that I felt crafting was fun and a new door to open. I have been crafting ever since. To me it is a way to relieve stress. My daughter is now a teenager and she is even trying to do some with me while I make video tutorials. I started video tutorials for my own website and felt I should venture out and start sharing what I know. I have made many videos for FaveCraft's YouTube Channel. I also do videos on my own website as well. I have sold many tutorials of my work, be it art or carfts to video tutorials. I am a mother of two wonderful teens and a wife to a great husband of 14 years. I feel I have the best support team cheering me on. So I guess I will continue to keep crafting and drawing.

PHS wins Game of the Week

The defense scored two touchdowns and held the Class 4A Trojans to only 79 yards passing.
The Panther offense kept up its torrid scoring pace by rushing for three touchdowns and passing for one more.

Florida Ski Destinations!
One of the Mayors in Lake County made a pitch for an Adult Themed Resort boasting a horse track with other gambling facilities and an indoor ski hill. Lake county has actual hills. When I was young, I didn't even know we had ANY hills here. Anyways, the people voted it down. I've thought about the same as I've read about ones in Great Britain. I just saw it on the news last night. I just read today that they thought his constituents thought he was smoking crack. Oh well, I was super stoked for almost 24 hours.

Word is that the Meadowlands was suppose to be complete November 2009, but they ran out of money. Summer of 2010 is their new projected date. We'll see what happens. That place is gonna be super crowded during off season.

Boeyink interception return lifts Central football to win
PELLA (CC) — A Central College defense that had to endure 100 plays on a warm fall afternoon made the one that counted the most Saturday.
Cornerback Spencer Boeyink raced 94 yards on a fourth-quarter interception with the decisive touchdown as the Dutch knocked off defending Iowa Conference champion University of Dubuque 31-24 before a sun-drenched homecoming crowd.
That tied the longest interception return in school history, a mark set by Jody Bandy against Upper Iowa in 1984.

The question I have is....was this a high speed pursuit down a major boulevard and into a major intersection? Were the cops right on her tail? If they were, what exactly is the justification for doing this? Because if you are telling me that she was going that fast at this location because cops were pursuing her based on the reasons I read here then it seems like forcing a high speed chase only contributed to her recklessness and prolonged it until somebody was killed. I don't want to hear lame excuses and creative reasoning. An innocent person is dead and it could have been much worse. Is it better now that they caught her right away instead of probably stopping her an hour later or picking her up at her home? This idiot was never, ever going to get away for long. That dead woman could have been any one of us or our children. Meth heads are never going to do the smart thing but by God we have a right to expect that from police. I guess running down crooks at 90 mph until they TC is just so much more gratifying than playing it smart and weighing the consequences.
Did you read the article? Exactly what is it that makes you believe police were in pursuit? As you mentioned, innocent people are dead here. Why don't you stop making up scenarios that have no basis in fact, and stop blaming the police?

Len Goodman
Quick Facts:
Full Name: Leonard Gordon Goodman
Dance Style: Ballroom
Nationality: English
Height: 6'
With the way Len Goodman nitpicks over arm extensions and twirls, you'd think he sambaed straight out of the womb. Surprisingly, he started dancing at the ripe old age of 19, after a short stint as an engineering apprentice (for Harland and Wolff in Woolwich). He tried dancing only in an attempt to recover from a foot injury he sustained while playing soccer! And surprise, surprise — young Len turned out to have a knack for dance. He eventually turned professional and won various competitions. He specialized in a form of dancing called Exhibition dancing, which focuses on lifts (a big no-no on DWTS!). Goodman has won the British Exhibition four times and was the runner-up in the Exhibition World Championships.
Goodman has been awarded the British Rising Star Award, the Carl Allen Award and, most recently, a Lifetime Achievement Award. He is also an accomplished Latin American and Ballroom professional dance competitions judge, and serves as a regular at the World and British Championships.
DWTS Data:
Len Goodman serves as the sometimes-affable-and-occasionally-cranky head judge on DWTS. Across the pond, he's spent six seasons as a judge on Strictly Come Dancing, the British hit reality dance competition show on which Dancing with the Stars is based. He also makes regular appearances on the British show's companion program Strictly Come Dancing: It Takes Two, as well as the show's Christmas specials and one-night-only airing of Strictly Ice Dancing. Busy man, that Len!
Beyond DWTS:
Len married his dancing partner Cherry Kingston in 1972. However, they later divorced. He has a son, James William Goodman, from his second wife Lesley, who also taught dancing at his dance schools in Dartford and Gravesend. Goodman is currently married to his third wife, Sue. He owns a dance studio in his hometown of Dartford, Kent, where he also lives.
Goodman was diagnosed with prostate cancer in March, 2009, which was treated surgically at a London hospital. Thankfully, he has made a full recovery!

CHIPPENHAM TOWN: 'I didn't care how we got there', says Rudge
10:00am Sunday 23rd September 2012 in Sport By Dan Barnes
Chippenham Town chief Nathan Rudge was happy to see his side book their place in the third qualifying round of the FA Cup after they got their name in the hat for Monday's draw with victory over Bishop's Cleeve yesterday.
The Bluebirds were made to work hard at lower league opposition but Rudge revealed that progressing through to the next round was his only concern this weekend.
"I said to the boys before the game that I didn't care about how we play or who scores the goals – all I wanted was for us to be in the hat on Monday and I wasn't bothered about how we got there," said Rudge.
"The great thing about the FA Cup is that it could throw up anything and as a player, you "look on the internet at 12 o'clock on Monday to see who you've got and it's great.
"The draw could chuck up anything - you want a big Conference club like Luton but there are a few teams at our level who are still around too.
"It's big money now too and we'll just see who we get.
"When we had the reports back, we knew that it was going to be a hard game and in the FA Cup, you have to deal with whatever's chucked at you.
"I thought the lads acquitted themselves well. I knew we had goals in us but sometimes it takes a while and once we got one, I knew the second wouldn't be far away."
Ashley Williams wasn't involved yesterday through suspension while Tyrone Mings was cup-tied.
Next weekend, the Bluebirds turn their attention to the FA Trophy and the visit of local rivals Swindon Supermarine.

The project to bring back the century-old Euclid Beach Park Carousel to Northeast Ohio is close to fruition.
On Thursday, the Western Reserve Historical Society in University Circle hosted an open house fundraiser with several of the restored horses that will be included when the project is complete on display. The WRHS' goal is to raise the remaining $1.35 million to complete the carousel.
According to Raymond Rackley, executive director of the Cleveland's Euclid Beach Park Carousel Society, $650,000 has already been raised.
The restoration project began in 1998 when the WRHS began management of 54 of the original horses, which were then placed in storage. In 2012, ground was broken for a glass pavilion in the history center, where it will be the home of the carousel.
Plans for it to be open to the public -- and for patrons to ride the carousel itself -- are on schedule for spring 2014, said Jane Mason, communications director of the WRHS.
John Frato of the Carousel Society has been involved with the restoration project every step of the way, and Thursday was another in what he hopes is a historic moment in 2014.
"This has been a roller coaster, but we know it's going to happen," said Frato, a Lyndhurst resident. "Just a dream come true."
The carousel, in Mansfield at Carousel Works being restored, has deep historical roots. According to the WRHS, it was referred to as "the finest carousel ever made" when it was unveiled to the public in 1910. When Euclid Beach Park closed in 1969, the carousel was sent to a park in Maine, where it stayed until 1996. It was auctioned off in Cleveland in 1997.

I want to take this first sentence to thank John Smeton for hooking me up with a sweet 4 week run of Glycobol and some samples-HGHpro, Maniac, Perform,3Z, and RecoverPro...Awesome! Again, really glad to be running the Glycobol. Years ago I ran stuff like ALA and Vanadyl Sulfate and it really helped me achieve some of my fitness goals-over six months I saw some serious changes in physique, muscle density, and fullness. The plan this time around is similar, diet is in check, four days of lifting with a split routine and cardio every morning for 15min-light work.
The goal is to keep muscle while shedding body fat and control my isulin spiikes from the poor habits of the occasional brownie, cookies, and/or cake during my off days.
This is my first log on any site...
187 pounds
18% Body Fat
Maint Kcal: 2250 per day
Actual consumption kCal: 2500 per day
Back when life was easier - pre children, wife and responsibility staying fit was a no brainer-I biked everywhere hit the gym four days per week and devoured everything in sight. Now, things as one would imagine are different, the care free, easy living metabolism of my youth is gone.
Let's get on with the log....
I'm currently on my eighth day of Glycobol taking the recommended dosage of 2am/2pm. In other post I've read some people have stomach sensitivity when starting this product-lucky me, no issues at all. Day eight has been interesting as I have started noticing while on Glycobol that i get really sleepy after the morning dosage when taken before breakfast. Breakfast usually consist of two or three eggs - whole, greek yogurt-***e, and 1/2 cup of blueberries. Im thinking the carb load isn't heavy enough...luckily I keep a bag of jelly beans near by popping one at a time until i'm good.
Observation #1: By the time I eat breakfast, 9am, I haven't had anything to eat for approximately 12 hours. I have been thinking about a blood sugar monitor to see whats happening-monitor the physiological effects.
Using Glycobol after a workout isn't a problem as most of my post workout shakes and meals are high in carbs. The shake usaually consist of 55 grams of protein-dymatize elite, 5 grams of leucine, 5 grams of glutamine, 3 grams of creatine mono and 60 grams of carbs by way of Vitargo S2- I start consuming my shake during my cool down period. 90 Minutes after my shake I have a small meal-usaully 5 cups of raw spinach, olive oil and approximately 6 oz. of Chicken or Beef-always simple.
Observation #2: Mid night snack attacks are gone-placebo effect? Also, I wake up feeling absolutely incredible because I am sleeping a lot better and my AM cardio routine is not the dreaded event that it was in the past-usually felt tired, lethargic and my muscles felt like they couldn't keep up without a PWO- not my favorite thing to do in the AM.
I'll be posting about weekly. As i mentioned before this is my first post, if there is anything you guys feel is needed to make this post better chime in, i'd love to hear the ideas or thoughts.

Problems Creating/Overwriting partition tables on the slave nodes.

All, I've been having problems setting up the IDE drives on my slave nodes. First of all I am using the software installed from the Distribution CD from Scyld. The drives on the slaves are all the same type of drive and currently have RedHat Linux installed on them. What I want to do is instead of booting from the floppy drive is to boot from the IDE drive. When I do a /usr/lib/beoboot/bin/beofdisk -q the partition table in /etc/beowulf/fdisk looks good so I want to write that partion table to the disks using /usr/lib/beoboot/bin/beofdisk -w. This runs just fine and it tells me I have to reboot the slave nodes for the new table to be saved. I reboot the slaves and they come up just fine but I can't do the beoboot-install because it has problems writing to the disk. Doing a bpsh 0 /sbin/sfdisk -l /dev/hda it shows me that the partition table has not even changed: it is still the old Redhat installation. Something is wrong here and the Help I've received from Richard Walsh is great but it also brings up other problems. He states that I should copy everything in /lib to the slaves using bpcp. Every single time I do this I get error messages saying invalid option or file not found. Then I do a bpsh 0 ls -la /lib and it only shows me the one library that is there after booting. What is up here? Does bpcp really work or does it only work when you boot from the hard drive? These are really bad problems and I do need to get this thing running again so that our faculity can use it. If anyone has had this problem I'd appreciate it if I could find out how you got around it. If anyone at Scyld can help me that would be great too. I was told by someone at Scyld that I should get the distribution CD when I was trying to install this from the RPMs. Now I have and I don't get answers to these questions from them. I know this is free software but I am perplexed at why they wouldn't like to know there may be a problem here. -- Robert Sand. mailto:rsand at d.umn.edu US Mail University of Minnesota Duluth 10 University Dr. Information Technology Systems and Services MWAH 176 144 MWAH Duluth, MN 55812 Phone 218-726-6122 fax 218-726-7674 "Walk behind me I may not lead, Walk in front of me I may not follow, Walk beside me and we walk together" UTE Tribal proverb.

Nick Park Movies
A man whose creative brilliance is superceded only by the eccentricities on display in his work, writer/director/producer/animator Nick Park has been revolutionizing the art of claymation since 1989, when he made the Oscar-winning short
Creature Comforts
. Working in concert with Aardman Animations, Park has created a bizarre, inextricably British universe where mute dogs solve riddles that elude their dim owners, penguins plot dastardly deeds, chickens act out their own version of The Great Escape, and cheese is granted a standing of disquieting importance.
Born in Preston, Lancashire, on December 6, 1958, Park was exposed to both chickens and animation at an early age. He made his first animated film at the age of 13 and made his professional debut four years later, on BBC television, with the animated short Archie's Concrete Nightmare (1975). After attending the Sheffield Art School, where he studied communication arts, Park went on to earn a degree in animation from the National Film and Television School, where he began working on
A Grand Day Out
. The stop-motion clay animation feature, which starred the signature characters of Wallace, a dim inventor, and Gromit, his brilliant but put-upon dog, would take years to finish; in the interim, Park joined Aardman Animations in 1986, where he first worked on the
Peter Gabriel
music video "Sledgehammer."
Collaborating with Aardman co-founder
Peter Lord
and the Brothers Quay, Park spent the next few years contributing to Aardman's Lip Synch, a series of short films for Channel Four television, and wrote, animated, and directed
Creature Comforts
(1990), a five-minute short about unhappy zoo animals complaining about their living conditions. The short proved to be a critical and popular success, leading to both a celebrated advertising campaign for electricity on British TV and Park's first Oscar nomination. Park's nomination was accompanied that same year by a second, in the same category of Best Animated Short, for the now-complete
A Grand Day Out
. The former film ended up winning the award, while the latter launched a craze for Wallace & Gromit. In Great Britain the Wallace & Gromit characters became a fairly substantial industry, with the beady-eyed, toothy likenesses of the inventor and his dog gracing products ranging from coffee mugs to pens.
Another Wallace & Gromit outing, The Wrong Trousers, followed in 1993. Like its predecessor, the animated film combined a clever plot with lovably eccentric heroes and a breathtaking manipulation of clay, and its creator was rewarded for his efforts with a second Oscar. The film's success added to the Wallace & Gromit cult, as did the third installment, 1995's
A Close Shave
. The winner of another Best Animated Short Oscar for Park, the film led many fans to anticipate a feature-length outing; instead, Park and fellow director
Peter Lord
decided to focus their creative attention on making, in their words, "The Great Escape with chickens."
Undoubtedly their most ambitious project to date, the film,
Chicken Run
, took over five years to complete, and combined CGI effects with thousands of hours of painstaking manual animation. The result, which incorporated the vocal talents of such noted actors as Julia Swahala, Mel Gibson, Jane Horrocks, and
Miranda Richardson
, more than vindicated the hard work of its creators. Equal parts adventure, love story, comedy, and sly commentary on labor politics,
Chicken Run
was a huge commercial and critical triumph on both sides of the Atlantic, delighting both die-hard Park fans and inspiring thousands of enthusiastic new converts.
In 2003 he revisited an idea that had garnered him attention 13 years before, with a half-hour long
Creature Comforts
TV series. Based on the same premise of claymation animals in various settings matter-of-factly discussing their lives as if being interviewed for a documentary, the series was a hit. It wouldn't be the last time Park elaborated on an older idea to make something new: in 2005 he directed a full-length feature film about the beloved inventor and his dog with Wallace & Gromit in The Curse of The Were-Rabbit. He found mainstream success with the effort, even picking up an Oscar for Best Animated Feature Film. ~ Rebecca Flint Marx, Rovi

In this outing from Aardman Animation, Wallace has converted his home into a granary complete with a fully functional, old fashioned windmill (patent pending) on the roof, and as a result "Top Bun" has become one of the hottest bakeries in town. But all is not well in the neighborhood, because more than a dozen local bakers have gone missing in the last few months alone. Now, as Wallace falls head over heels for former Bake-O-Lite bread girl Piella Bakewell (voice of Coronation Street star Sally Lindsay), Gromit attempts to solve the case of the missing bakers before his hapless master becomes the latest dough-roller to vanish without a trace. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Creature Comforts [Animated TV Series]
The genesis of the clay-animation "docu-comedy" Creature Comforts was a 1989 theatrical short cocreated by Nick Park of "Wallace and Grommit" fame. This evolved into a British TV series, which first aired in 2003, which in turned spawned the American version four years later. The premise was both simple and sublime: the producers recorded the unscripted conversations of "real people", which were then rendered into Claymation form with anthropomorphic animals mouthing the words. The laughs grew from the bizarre juxtapositions of the "live" soundtrack and the animated image. A middle-aged couple discussing their material possessions were depicted as a pair of pigs; another couple talking about their sex lives were "reinvented" as porcupines; a woman complaining about her dry skin became a goldfish in a water tank; a lady griping about her experiences at a fitness center was animated as a hippopotamus; a brace of sweethearts reciting the traditional "She loves me, she loves me not" were drawn as a pair of monkey picking insects off one another; and so on. Produced by Aardman Animations, the American edition of Creature Comforts premiered June 4, 2007 on CBS; unfortunately, it was not nearly as successful as its British predecessor, and disappeared after only a handful of episodes. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Add Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit to top of Queue
Eccentric inventor Wallace (voice of Peter Sallis) and his faithful if often perplexed dog Gromit are back in their first feature-length adventure from animator Nick Park. Wallace and Gromit have launched a new business venture just in time for a major gardening competition in their neighborhood of West Wallaby. "Anti-Pesto" is a humane pest-relocation service in which Wallace and Gromit capture rabbits and other critters who have been eating the produce from local gardens and give them new homes somewhere else. Business has been going well, and when the woman hosting the garden show, Lady Tottington (voice of Helena Bonham Carter), discovers a massive tribe of rabbits has been making a mess of her garden, she calls in Wallace and Gromit to move the bunnies elsewhere. Wallace is quite taken with Lady Tottington, but he's not the only one -- Victor Quartermaine (voice of Ralph Fiennes) is a slick but arrogant upper-class type who wants to win Lady Tottington's hand (and fortune) and is convinced he can do a better job capturing the rabbits than Wallace. However, Wallace's attempts to brainwash the rabbits away from veggies using his latest invention has disastrous results, and soon Wallace has to deal with a beastly bunny as well as a heavily-armed Quartermaine. Wallace and Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit followed Park's previous film with the duo, A Close Shave, by ten years, and was produced after Park broke through to mainstream success with the feature Chicken Run. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

The initial season of the British Claymation series Creature Comforts consists of 13 episodes, in which animated animals are interviewed on the topics that concern them most (and, as it turns out, many of the topics are of equal concern to human beings). In "The Circus," we meet an elephant suffering from stage fright, and a performing seal who chronicles his extensive musical training. "Pets at the Vets" is highlighted by a variety of complaints about a variety of animal ailments, many of the best ones offered by a piranha suffering from a toothache. Among those profiled in "Working Animals" are a multi-tasking cockroach and a group of lab rats grimly looking forward to retirement. "The Sea" features a shark with a phobia about depth, and a walrus with cramps. In "The Garden" we learn why worms abhor fresh air, watch a contemplative woodpecker in his off-hours, and witness a pond converting into a singles bar for frogs. The question of whether or not bloodhounds should eat oysters and the ethical dilemma of a pigeon with a taste for fried chicken are probed in "Feeding Time." In "The Beach," a group of sea anemones wax wroth about sharing their water space, while an octopus develops a taste for sweets. "What's It All About, Then" has several animals pondering the purpose of their lives, notably a group of quizzical cats and some spiritual slugs. Issues addressed in "Pet Shop" include a goldfish who takes the "gold" part of his name too much to heart and the conversational skills of stick-insects. "Being a Bird" casts light upon such matters as the homing instinct and the problems of navigating around skylights. "Is There Anyone Out There?" finds a few animals discoursing about "invaders," both extraterrestrial and terrestrial. "Cats or Dogs" serves up comparisons of the two species, including an assessment of their abilities to alert their masters about burglars. And "Merry Christmas" proves beyond question that the Yuletide season isn't just for dogs. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Aardman Animations, the British clay-animation studio that created a cult sensation (and won three Academy awards) with its short subjects featuring Wallace and Gromit, presents its first feature film, a mixture of comedy and adventure. Mrs. Tweedy (voice of Miranda Richardson) operates a chicken farm, where most of the birds have resigned themselves to a short and uneventful life of producing eggs and ending up as the main course of someone's Sunday dinner. But when Rocky (voice of Mel Gibson), a rooster from America, arrives on the farm, things begin to change. Rocky soon finds romance with a hen named Ginger (voice of Julia Sawalha) who longs for a better life and has been trying to find a way out of the farm for some time; together they devise a plan to escape to freedom. However, Rocky and Ginger soon find themselves racing against the clock when Mrs. Tweedy decides it's time to turn the entire flock into chicken pies. Nick Park, director of the Wallace and Gromit shorts, co-directed Chicken Run with Peter Lord, who produced several Aardman projects and created animation for the TV series Pee-Wee's Playhouse. The voice cast also includes Jane Horrocks, Phil Daniels, and Timothy Spall. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

A Close Shave
The third film to feature the claymation adventures of Wallace and Gromit, A Close Shave finds the inventor and his dog with a new business, new friends, and a new adversary. As the story begins, the team has decided to open a window-washing service, with Wallace providing clever gadgets while Gromit does the real work. Yet Wallace continues inventing in his spare time and has recently built a new device, the Knit-O-Matic, to clean and shear sheep -- which comes in quite handy when a lost lamb takes refuge in their home. Wallace and Gromit soon discover that this lamb has escaped from a pair of evil sheep rustlers who want him back. The mastermind of the rustling scheme turns out to be Preston, a dog belonging to local wool-shop proprietor Wendolene Ramsbottom; complicating things further is the fact Wendolene is also the object of Wallace's romantic affections. When Preston frames Gromit as the rustler and plots to steal the Knit-O-Matic, the pair must find a way to save the sheep and themselves. Director Nick Park once again mixes inventive animation with deviously clever plotting and whimsical humor, a combination that won him his third "Best Animated Short" Oscar. ~ Judd Blaise, Rovi

The Wrong Trousers
The second short film to feature the claymation antics of eccentric inventor Wallace and his dog Gromit, The Wrong Trousers sees the duo become unwitting accomplices to a jewel theft. The trouble begins when, struggling to make ends meet, Wallace decides to take in a boarder - a mysterious penguin. At first, Wallace and his new tenant get along famously; indeed, the penguin forces Gromit out of his room and into the doghouse, literally. However, the bird is not what he seems: Gromit discovers that the penguin is actually the infamous burglar Feathers McGraw. Feathers has his eye on Wallace's most recent invention -- a pair of mechanical trousers that can be programmed to automatically walk on their own -- believing the device will help him steal a world-famous diamond at the local museum. When Feathers traps Wallace inside the trousers, Gromit must find a way to stop the malicious penguin and save his friend. This Oscar-winner for "Best Animated Short" works both as a hilarious parody of film noir and as an exciting, action-packed adventure in its own right, combining skillful visual design and superb animation with inventive, witty storytelling. ~ Judd Blaise, Rovi

A Grand Day Out
It's another bank holiday in northern England, and eccentric inventor Wallace and his faithful dog, Gromit, are sitting around the house with nothing to do. While poring over stacks of travel magazines, Wallace suggests that the pair break for a hot cup of tea and some cheese. When he discovers that there's no cheese to be found anywhere in the house, he hits upon an ideal place for a picnic: "Everybody knows the moon's made of cheese." With Gromit's help, he immediately starts construction on a rocket ship, and before long the two are walking on (and tasting) the lunar surface. As they continue to explore, they are blissfully unaware that they -- and their rocket -- are being watched by a creature that has dreams and aspirations of its own. ~ Emru Townsend, Rovi

Creature Comforts is an Oscar-winning animated short from Aardman Animations and director Nick Park, the creator of the Wallace & Gromit series. As in his other works, Park mingles claymation and multidimensional characterizations with a dry, distinctly British sense of humor; this time around, his subject is the lives of animals in an English zoo. The film employs a documentary-like structure, presenting a series of interviews with zoo animals about their lives and homes. The central joke is that all the zoo's inhabitants speak with recognizably British voices and mannerisms, from a slightly embarrassed turtle to an enthusiastic polar bear cub. They express different viewpoints about zoo life, with some appreciating the security and care provided by their environment, but others bemoaning the confined space and unnatural environment. (One of the characters, a disgruntled mountain lion, is a recent immigrant from Brazil who complains that while his home country may have had less technology, at least it had warm weather and plenty of space.) Indeed, the dialogue spoken by Park's comical creatures sounds as if it was lifted verbatim from interviews with London residents about their apartments. ~ Judd Blaise, Rovi

JERUSALEM — An Islamist militant group based in Egypt's Sinai peninsula has claimed responsibility for a cross-border attack in which an Israeli soldier was killed, calling the raid a response to an online video mocking the prophet Muhammad that triggered protests across the Muslim world.
Three gunmen also were killed in Friday's firefight on the Israeli-Egyptian border. The incident was the latest in a number of militant attacks from Sinai that have heightened concerns in Israel about what officials say is growing activity by al-Qaeda-inspired jihadist groups in the desert region since the Egyptian revolution last year.

Did the Pilgrims Really Land on Plymouth Rock and More Questisons From our Readers
Where do hurricanes start, the Big Bang, sea gulls and other answers from the Smithsonian's experts
- By Smithsonian Magazine

Did the Pilgrims really land at Plymouth Rock?
Slade Labadie
Dixon, New Mexico
It's hard to be certain. According to oral tradition, the Mayflower Pilgrims landed near the landmark rock in 1620—but first-person accounts of their arrival make no mention of it. The legend is attributed to Thomas Faunce, an acquaintance of the earliest Pilgrims, who recalled hearing it as a boy.
William L. Bird
Curator, National Museum of American History
Why do I see sea gulls in large parking lots miles from any water?
Larry Seaver
Plainfield, New Jersey
Gulls often stop to rest (and forage for French fries) in parking lots when they're migrating, usually in spring and fall. And while most gull species are coastal, the Franklin's gull inhabits the prairies of central North America.
Carla Dove
Ornithologist, Museum of Natural History
If the universe began with the Big Bang, with celestial bodies traveling away from the point of origin, can the center of the universe be pinpointed by backtracking their trajectories?
Glen J. Venable
Gaines, Michigan
The Big Bang wasn't so much an explosion into space as an explosion of space itself. If we were to backtrack the expansion, we would end up with an infinitesimally small point—space itself would disappear, along with the concept of location. Picture a balloon on which we drew little dots to mark galaxies; when we inflate the balloon, all the dots expand away from each other, yet on the two-dimensional balloon surface we cannot pinpoint any center of this expansion.
Debora Sijacki
Astrophysicist, Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics
Why do hurricanes originate off the southwestern coast of Africa? And is there a similar point of origin for typhoons?
Robert Bruce Barton
Charlotte, North Carolina
Tropical cyclones—storms called "hurricanes" in the Atlantic and eastern Pacific and "typhoons" in the western Pacific—always originate near the Equator, where solar heating provides energy to develop large storms. Atlantic hurricanes originate near Africa and move toward North America because of global atmospheric circulation patterns.
Andrew Johnston
Geographer, National Air and Space Museum
Can an animal's (or human's) diet be determined through the analysis of bones that are tens of thousands of years old?
Christine Sturtz
Parsippany, New Jersey
We can't determine exactly which plant or animal an individual ate, but we can reconstruct its food web. We can analyze chemicals in bones up to about 50,000 years old, and we can examine wear patterns and other physical qualities in many older ones. From bones, we can tell whether an animal was an herbivore, carnivore or omnivore; whether an herbivore ate mostly grasses or leaves; and how much meat a carnivore generally ate.
Christine France
Physical scientist, Smithsonian Museum Conservation Institute

I read the article "Assassination Foiled" by Patricia O'Toole in your November, 2012 edition. I found it interesting. I noted the picture of the X-Ray of the President's lungs. Where did this copy come from? I ask because the original X-Ray was performed at Mercy Hospital in Chicago, Illinois and no mention was made of this.

Messi is one of the most exciting and paciest forwards in the modern game. Having played for Argentinean sides since he was five, Messi moved to Barcelona when he was just 13, and has worked his way through the Catalan FC Barcelona sides youth and reserve teams, before making his full debut in October 2004 as the youngest player ever to play in the Spanish top flight. He made his debut for Argentina against Hungary in 2005, and has been a permanent member of the squad ever since.

(is this a good idea?) ) Does this configuration looks reasonable? Any known conflicts and driver issues? I am going to use the 2.4.x kernel. Thanks!

Room to Read | World Change Starts with Educated Children
San Francisco, CA – January 7, 2005 – Room to Read, an international organization that establishes schools and libraries in Asia, today announced an effort to raise US$1 million for building educational infrastructure in tsunami-ravaged Sri Lanka.
The results-oriented, low overhead nonprofit organization is dedicated to improving the lives of people in developing countries by fostering education and literacy from a young age. Today the organization announced that a pool of anonymous donors have committed to matching all donations up to the first US$100,000 for the Sri Lanka fund.
The tsunami of December 26 wreaked havoc on communities throughout Asia. Sri Lanka has been devastated with a death toll in excess of 40,000. Room to Read, which has operated in South Asia for five years, decided to accelerate its already-planned expansion into Sri Lanka.
John Wood, Founder and CEO, said that once primary relief efforts, such as the delivery of food, water, and medical supplies are secure, Room to Read will aid in the long term restoration of communities affected.
"Room to Read needs your support to ensure that the children of Sri Lanka will one day be able to return to the safe haven that a school provides," Wood said. "In the critical months ahead, our team will travel to assess the damage on the ground and to work with local non-governmental organizations to identify school sites in need. Immediate needs are acute, but it also is important to lay the groundwork now, so that these children have a future that provides education."
Previous results by Room to Read during its first five years include:
Room to Read also works in Cambodia, India, Nepal and Vietnam. "For every dollar donated to Room to Read projects, more than 90 cents is deployed directly to our programs and not to a wasteful bureaucracy," Wood added. This efficiency is one of the reasons that Room to Read is a two-time winner of the Fast Company Social Capitalist award, and a recipient of Time magazine's Asian Hero award.
Donations can be made to the reconstruction of communities affected in Sri Lanka by visiting the donate page and noting "Sri Lanka" in the Special Instructions.
