Naming the Palm Prē: Strategy Boutique OD's on joss-sticks
Is that a long e?
I think it should be pronounced more like pray or prey - as in Palm is praying this will work. Or in that the phone will be prey for whatever stupid cat codename Apple and their quietus bound or possibly post-existence reanimated spook CEO can come up with.
Halo for the resurrection.

Free psychoanalytic therapy for us cross-pondians (ameritards) who either lack health insurance or whose health insurance frowns upon such mentally theraputic modalities even if the working environment that provides the insurance is also the impetus for the necessity of these treatments causing the employees to resort to amusing themselves with witty-banter from trans-pondian (brittards) reporters and moderators who must be doing something right as their workday always seems to end five hours earlier than ours as well as writing long winded run-on sentences in venting postings as our only output for our frustrations.
Happy pubbing.

Speeding Oz teen may face 'gorillas in the mist'
Dian Fossey is at Long Bay jail?
I didn't realize gorillas were indigenous to Long Bay jail. On top of that I am highly OFFENDED (note caps) at these beautiful primates being described as "big, ugly, hairy strong men who've got faces only a mother could love that will pay a lot of attention to you - and your anatomy."
Orwellian Apple ad celebrates 25th birthday
Best ad ever?
Am I the only person who thinks this ad is not the best ad ever? I couldn't tell you which one is, but it's certainly not this one. Most of my fellow Ameritards think of 1984 in terms of Footloose and Ghostbusters. In 1984, the climate was that of cold war and nationalism not of anti-establishment. And they played the ad during the superbowl. How many wankdribbles watching this ad had any idea who Orwell was. And IBM and computers? Are they serious? It's one of those smugtard ads where if you get it you can chuckle to yourself about how better than everyone else you are.
Maybe the US government can do an advertisement spoof on Grapes of Wrath where Hank Paulson plays the role of Rose of Sharon and feeds failing banks and automakers from his teat. huh huh *smug chuckle* isn't that so creative? *smug chuckle*

Climate change blows out eco-boss's record bid
I'm going for the fastest sodium bicarbonate lemon juice renewable energy powered speedboat......
I read this as he was attempting to break the land speed record in a wind powered vehicle, not he was attempting to break the wind powered vehicle land speed record......
While I applaud their effort at going faster than 116.7mph in a wind powered vehicle, it does not compare to going 763 mph and breaking the sound barrier.
But if what I'm reading about apparent wind is correct, maybe they can have a 763 mph car follow behind them with a giant turbofan blowing the Greenbird along?

Microsoft dyes hair orange to cheer SQL Server 2008 release
Why am I not surprised?
"but Microsoft is still extremely pleased about having a new edition out within 24 to 36 months from the release of SQL Server 2005"
Of course it is! When you can charge everyone to purchase upgrades and EOL your previous versions why wouldn't you be thrilled to have a new edition out every 24 to 36 months?
It will make your select statements 5x faster.

They could force hime to diet and excercise and drop a few pounds before executing him. Or would that be considered cruel and unusual punishment?

@Rune Moberg & Pierre
From Experience:
On a Pentium 200MMX Running Slackware 7, MPEG-4 decoding performance was too slow to acceptably run a 640x480 video in realtime. (Couple of frames every 2-3 seconds)
Running Windows XP (you were able to run XP on that??!?!) it was also too slow to run in realtime. Although slower than the Linux install - (Maybe one or two frames every 8-10 seconds) it was still viewable (although not watchable).
And yes I said Slackware and yes I remember the static/ELF debacle and the 4/7 version numbering fracas. I just think the name Volkerding flows.
Why is Ruby on Rails so darn slow?
But then you wouldn't have all of these fabulous right out of the University developers creating entity classes irrespective of the DB. Then want to know why the DB is slow, why their Entity Manager is throwing an exception, why there are all these locking issues, key violations, why this worked faster in mySQL, what's an index, etc, etc.
Pray to the Oracle (tee hee) for the DB admin who needs to maintain a databse without knowledge of persistence APIs and how they interract with the database.
I could go on and on about this. Making classes relate to tables and relationships with annotations makes automatic code generation easy. Making code efficient and scalable? PAH!

US teen cuffed for disposable camera 'Taser'
You guys are missing the problem.....
with my country of origin and residence - the wildly wonderful USofA.
All of this overreaction is not a result of our moronic president's war on terror or the impending wiretap police state. It's a result of our woeful civil law system in which you can sue for being fed a hot battered piece of fried cod. (I personally enjoy a hot codpiece every now and again.) Personal responsibility does not exist on this side of the pond (although you easterners are not far behind.)
Take little Johnny and his shocker for example. If the police and school didn't prosecute little Johnny would probably go around shocking people until he shocks the wrong person. Then said wrong person goes home and whines to his parents. His parents happen to be lawyers who specialize in personal injury. They then proceed to sue three people - the boy who did the shocking, the school that refused to expel the shocker, and the police (or district attorney) who did not file charges against the shocker.
A university I once worked at was sued because a student climbed out his window and fell after an evening of binge drinking. They settled out of court.
Creative climbs down over home brew Vista drivers
AWE 32 GOLD in XP
I have an Awe 32 gold. Thought my soundfonts were awesome (What's MIDI?). Then I upgraded to Windows XP.
No audio. Why? They decided that no one wanted to use SPD/IF in XP. I could have sound, but only out of the analog jacks. I had a nice back and forth with them which ended at me screaming at a tech support guy who said ISA cards don't work in XP.
Granted, you eventually have to EOL a product, but the $20 drivers from 4Front Technologies for the same soundcard work fine under Linux 10 years after I initially purchased them.
Creative suffers from nocturnal emissions of the anal variety.
Google cops to puppeting Great American Wireless Auction
Do no evil?
While Verizon isn't the saintliest of companies, there is something perverse about a company raising its own bid even though nobody was bidding against them.
If you're doing it for open access, then fine. Bid $4.6 billion and stop. Don't chuckle at yourself with a line like " to ensure aggressive bidding on the C Block. In turn, that helped increase the revenues raised for the U.S. Treasury."
So you inflated the bid for no reason other then to force Verizon to pay more, which in turn will show up as a higher cost to me if I chose to be a Verizon customer. That's less ethical than your average politican.
Jimbo Wales dumps lover on Wikipedia
We need an icon....
called "Why Wiki?" for all the whiners who don't want to see Wikipedia on El Reg. And while we're at it can we get a Jimbo with horns?
You can't parade as a blogsite to dump your woman on, then switch to being an encyclopaedia, then revert to being a possibly inncurate hive kinda-sorta reference material whenever you feel like. It's this sort of wishy washy, can't make up our damn mind nonsense that makes me wish for Wikipedia's non-existence.
I don't want to wake up someday and have to encorporate the Wikipedia search into our corporate portal because some yuk-yuk named Jimbo has come up with enough whalesong to validate Wikipedia's place in the list of useful Web 2.0 utilities.
So please continue to bash Wikipedia and drum up as much bad publicity as possible.
Latest China scare torpedos 3Com takeover
The fact that these numbnuts are scared that a Chinese company would acquire a US provider of intrusion detection is a good indication that governmental data security is a fantasy.
If you don't like who owns a company, replace your devices with another vendor. If this is not relatively easy, it's a red flag that your infrastucture is poorly designed.
I don't see them complaining about silicon components that are manufactured in China. Who's to say that they don't have secret built in Commie spy mechanisms? Who's to say that Al-Qaeida militants have not infiltrated one of Intel's overseas chip plants?

Sony sells $835m PS3 CPU plant to Toshiba
Anyone who thinks this purchase.....
relates to the Cell chip is kidding himself. After Toshiba makes an announcement that they are going to focus on their core business (NAND flash memory) you can bet that plant is going to be quickly retooled for the prouction of of high density memory.
Yeah, the Cells in the PS3 are nice (but I bet Sony has a sweetheart deal to get them from Toshiba at close to cost) but the real bread and butter is the future use of solid state storage.

So give the winner of a "green" contest a product that contains cadmium, mercury, lead, and chromium.
(Yeah, yeah, yeah....I'm trolling and almost all electronic equipment contain toxic materials. I'm just tired of "yoghurt-eating fruitcakes in hemp suits and sandals" talking about green and computing in the same breath. I'm tired of "Green is the new black." I'm tired of the environment being the latest cause for ne'er-do-bads. Almost every cause championed in the nineties has been largely forgotten as a result of the overused and melodramatic bleating of the sheep. I'd just like for once someone to say - "Hey, things aren't that terrible. Humanity has made it this far and will continue to make progress. Things are pretty good compared to pushing rocks on mastadons. If you want to, help out. If not, your inaction is NOT going to lead to the extinction of the species." No more doomsday.)
That is all.
Tiscali hits 'undo' after bandwidth throttling chokes iTunes
Does anyone remember when bandwidth was priced based on its cost to telcos?
I agree with all of the arguments against throttling, shaping, unlimited with the small print, etc. False advertising and should be prosecuted. ISPs have f'ed things up by giving away everything for next to free and are now trying to stuff a genie back in a bottle.
But you can't have everything for nothing. Does anyone remember when bandwidth allotted was based a little bit more in line with the actual cost to the carriers? Before the giant race for who could provide fastest service for the least amount of money......
Now that they've opened up this can of worms with $30 a month unlimited 15/mbps down 1/mbps up (over here in the states anyway), Telcos can't go back to a reasonable pricing model. They expect each user to download one song a day via iTunes, and never download videos or watch youtube.
All this was a brilliant idea when the largest files people were downloading were animated GIFs or flash files. Now that content is so bandwidth intensive even my grandmother would hit some of these limits. Throw in Windows patch Tuesday and several computers per houshold and again, we're using more bandwidth than our $30 is covering in cost.
For less than $400 a year an ISP is supposed to deploy the network, maintain it, perform upgrades, employ a call center for the boobs who download trojans/spyware and blame it on the ISP as well as tech support any network aware application you have that doesn't work, provide you with endpoint hardware to integrate your house with their network, record everything so that when you download kiddie porn/read militant websites it can be provided to the government on a whim, run and secure email (and in some cases web servers) for you, and do everything else under the sun.
Even if you said take the total revenue and divide it by total costs I'd tell you forget it. I wouldn't want to run an ISP. It reminds me of the insurance companies here in the states that insure for natural disasters and than cry for a government bail out when a natural disaster actually occurs.
Not saying that everyone should pay $1500 a month for internet service, but the price point needs to be higher if people are going to expect a minimal amount of performance.
Oddly enough my cable company seems to have been able to keep up a minimal set of network performance - subsidizing its internet access by doubling it's television cost over a five year period.
Thumbs down because there is no good solution where everyone wins.

It was nicer than the one I already had!?!?!?! I'm gonna start a charity to give Steve Jobs sandwiches. Sammies4Jobs.org. Why would you waste money giving iPods to people who have homeowners insurance and can probably buy their own iPod if needed.

Hi Kay,
This sounds quite normal Kay. Tummy's are usually flatter in the morning when they are empty. After drinking water will stay in the stomach for a while and is needed there to help digest our food. It is not unusual to hear these noises Kay so do try not to worry.

my son (7) is like this, and its not just a bit either, normal in the morning, and like a child starving on TV by the pm. i've been pondering food intolerance, but he doesn't have diarrhea, just tummy ache sometimes. how about yours? he is also very thin, which makes it worse or maybe wouldn't be noticeable if he wasn't?

Started cutting over a month ago, and after 4+ weeks of eating vegetables and grilled meat, I'm growing to kinda like this sh!t.... I mean, not buying bread has been pretty cool. I'm thinking of never buying another loaf of bread til death (srs)
brb, rice/potatoes...
after I get cut to the level I want, I will definitely not hesitate to go out and eat a hot dog at a BBQ, or pound down a few beers on saturday night, but as far as eating fast food, I think once a week will be enough.
thoughts? anyone ever do this?

Prescott, Arizona: Live + Work + Play
This video clip is a brief compilation of some of the footage I've been shooting for our local city government. Prescott, Arizona (like all small metros) is always on the make for more – more population, more business relocation, and more tourist visitation. I've been helping out whenever I can and have really enjoyed the process. All footage was captured with HDSLRs - a mix of Canon 1DMKIV, 5DMKII, and 60D cameras. I hope you enjoy it!

The pilot entered a right base leg for runway 23 with the winds from the south/southeast. He recalled that the approach was normal, but 'added power to recover from a down draft about 1/4 mile from the threshold.' During the 3 point touch down at normal speed, the airplane immediately veered to the right, with the left wing and landing gear lifting up. The pilot applied left aileron and rudder, but the airplane drifted off the right side of the runway and continued onto the grass. The right landing gear dropped into a drainage ditch, collapsing the landing gear . The airplane rotated over its nose, coming to rest inverted. Flight control continuity was verified, and the pilot did not report any mechanical malfunctions.
The National Transportation Safety Board determines the probable cause(s) of this accident to be:

Alt-rock trio Upwelling is marking the ninth anniversary of 9/11 with the release of their video "Ladder 116," proceeds from which will benefit the New York Police & Fire Widows' & Children's Benefit Fund.
Upwelling frontman Ari Ingber began writing songs as a way to deal with the immense tragedy he and his fellow New Yorkers faced following the destruction of the Twin Towers.
"Ladder 116" was penned in the wake of 9/11, a homage to their friends in the Queens-based Ladder 116. The company was held in the Midtown tunnel the day of the tragedy, due to a security warning that inevitably saved their lives. However, members Paul Gill and Thomas Casoria worked on rotation for their engine company, and were two of the many brave heroes who lost their lives. This song, and its corresponding music video, remembers these two and the many others who were lost, as well as the legacy of the World Trade Center.
The video for "Ladder 116" is a compilation of footage of the construction of the Twin Towers, in addition to video clips of employees of all races and creeds working in the buildings. It captures the iconic center that represented the essence of New York City to the world and that pumped lifeblood into various worldwide fields, from finance and insurance to commerce and public media.
"Ladder 116" is featured as the final track on the Upwelling's 2009 debut album, An American Stranger.
To view the video, visit theupwelling.com/ladder116 or purchase the video here.
Again proceeds will benefit the New York Police & Fire Widows' & Children's Benefit Fund, which was formed in 1985. Since its inception, it has distributed over $123 million to the families of New York City police officers, fire fighters, and emergency medical service workers, who were killed in the line of duty.

my absolute favorite athlete ever!
I had the book, my son has the book now "Bo knows Bo", the shoes, the posters. The guy was an incredible athlete.
cool stories
-"We had an outdoor party at a lake after we won the county championship," says Terry Brasseale, Bo's baseball coach at McAdory High School. "Bo's just out there in water up to his waist. All of a sudden, he jumps up, does a backflip out of the water, and lands on his feet. I said to my girlfriend, 'Did you see that?' "
-On June 5, 1989, Jackson ran down a long line-drive deep to left field on a hit-and-run play against the Seattle Mariners. With speedy Harold Reynolds running from first base on the play, Scott Bradley's hit would have been deep enough to score him against most outfielders. But Jackson, from the warning track, turned flat footed and fired a strike to catcher Bob Boone, who tagged the sliding Reynolds out. Jackson's throw reached Boone on the fly. Interviewed for the "Bo Jackson" episode of ESPN Classic's SportsCentury, Reynolds admitted that he thought there was no way anyone would throw him out on such a deep drive into the gap in left-center, and was shocked to see his teammate telling him to slide as he rounded third base.
-the only human to have thrown a football that hit the scoreboard hanging from the roof of the New Orleans Superdome,
-At thirteen years old, he had already moved up to the Industrial League in Bessemer and played against grown men. At the end high school, the New York Yankees selected him in the second round of the draft, but he declined the offer to get a college degree. In 1982 at Auburn University he attended baseball, football and track. He was the first athlete ever to do so.
-Jackson ran track in high school, and could run 100 meters in 10.39 seconds. The time is considered incredible for any high school sprinter adding to the fact he weighed around 200 pounds. He was told he should try the decathlon, but he had never pole vaulted or thrown the discus, so he taught himself to do both events in one day Template:Uncited. Jackson won the Alabama state high school decathlon with a record point total, and also set a record in winning the 100 meters. By giving himself such a point differential, he did not have to run the grueling 1 mile race, which he did not like and did not participate in. Jackson went on to win the event a second time.

WASHINGTON - The bill that would grant marriage rights to Maryland gay couples is expected to go to the Senate floor this week, and as it does, one House member is hoping to get past his "no" vote.
Delegate Sam Arora, a Democrat, was the lone "no" vote on same-sex marriage in the Montgomery County delegation, and there have been calls for his resignation online.
He has not offered any public comment until now.
In an email statement to WTOP Arora said:
"This has been an emotional debate and I understand there are those who disagree with my vote. Now that the bill has passed, I've turned my focus to close special interest tax loopholes and protecting senior citizens in Maryland."

You'll see that camp dates are slightly different at each location.
The more weeks you sign up for, the lower the price. You'll also see discounts when you add extended care.
Camp Galileo themes are designed to be so rich that campers can enjoy them multiple times during the course of a single summer.
Every Galileo camp has its own unique identity that reflects the personality of the camp staff and the setting. If you're torn between two locations, give us a call at 1.800.854.3684 and we may be able to help you decide.
5th graders have a choice. They can be leaders at Camp Galileo. Or they can focus in on deeper projects and be around 6th-8th graders at Galileo Summer Quest. Or they can do a mix of the two camps.
As you'll see, not every location is home to both Camp Galileo and Galileo Summer Quest. We're working on that.

April is a self-described "simple girl" who loves radio. Most people would say she's happy and outgoing, but she pays most of them to say that. After 14 years in radio, she's has worked at stations of all shapes and sizes. But it is her dream-come-true to work in St. Louis because she LOVES this city! A little bit adventurous, she's done some skydiving, bungee-jumped, and ridden with a motorcycle stunt man. She's a Cardinals fan and a live music junkie. In her spare time she loves to be with her loved ones and friends and run the track with her four legged child. She may be small, but she can eat an entire pizza all by herself. Summer, roller coasters, and hanging by the lake are some of her favorite things. She can also say her ABC's backwards. Catch her on the weekends on her favorite station (and yours!) 106-5 The Arch.
Mark Hyken
Mark Hyken loves all kinds of music ranging from The Arch song selections, big band, jazz, and 60's and 70's obscure tracks. He loves the continuing process of learning about songs and artists. He grew up in St. Louis County and graduated from Ladue High. His first radio jobs were all at college stations. He was playing bands such as The Police and U2 back when they were considered "alternative." He had a 2 year stint at Mizzou back in the 80's and just graduated Summa Cum Laude from UMSL. Mark founded his own "music and etc." store called The Den in Morgantown, WV. He got back into radio around 1999 when the local alternative station needed a programmer and host for their deep track 60's and 70's weekly program. With his obsession for music, he was a shoe in for the job. But it wasn't enough to feed his musical obsession. At one point he was employed by three stations in the area at the same time! After having a child, he decided to move back home to St. Louis. He had no idea that a job at 106-5 the Arch was an option and is very happy about it!
Melanie Streeper
Melanie joined 106-5 The Arch on-air staff in December 2012. Her radio career began in 1995 when she was hired as a weekend host with WFUN Radio, the kids station formerly known as Planet Fun. She was known as "Melanie Mouse" back then and the name has followed her since high school. What high school, you ask? She graduated from Lindbergh High School (Go, Flyers!).
She also attended college here in town, graduating with a Bachelor's and a Master's Degree from Lindenwood University. She spent several years working at St. Louis TV stations as a news, weather and traffic reporter. She was also fortunate enough to work at TV stations in San Diego, New Orleans and Tucson.
She's excited about her new position at the Arch and looks forward to hearing from you on the weekends!
Shaun Anthony
Shaun is a St. Louisan born and raised. He's a HUGE fan of the St. Louis Cardinals, Rams and Blues Hockey (when they actually play!). And also a huge fan of the former St. Louis Steamers and St. Louis Ambush professional indoor soccer teams. Shaun enjoys playing sports, playing the guitar, piano and drums, attending concerts and being outdoors. His history in the industry includes On-Air on Hot AC, Top 40, Classic Rock and Country formats, Program Director, News Anchor, Talk-Show host with stations such KFLW 98.9 "The Fort" in St. Robert, KELE 92.5 "The Grove" in Mountain Grove, KOZX 98.1, Cabool, and KTRS 550AM in St. Louis. He is also founder of www.voiceoverstl.com. Shaun is also boating and water enthusiast pretty sure he should have been born with gills!
Tom Settles
Tom Settles was born and raised in a small town in Illinois before moving to the St. Louis area in the early 90′s. He became interested in a radio career after choosing to do a class report on the profession in high school and had the pleasure of interviewing "Radio Rich" Dalton as his subject. After graduation, he attended SIUE to earn my degree in Radio Broadcasting. Tom has been a longtime Blues fan and covers the team on a freelance basis. He's had the honor of meeting some of the greatest players in NHL history just by doing his "job."
While developing his on-air career, Tom has worked for a variety of formats from News & Sports to Contemporary Christian and Country to Rock n' Roll. Ironically, he has worked on the same dial number twice, 106-5 – once in the late 90′s when the format was Country. It was at that station where Tom met his wife…long story short…she requested a song during the station's Christmas night program and the rest is matrimony! They've been married for 12 years with 3 beautiful daughters. Now he's on the frequency which is The Arch, so it looks like 106-5 is his lucky number!

Working Responsibly
Microsoft YouthSpark
Established by the Governor of Riyadh, the Prince Salman Science Oasis (PSSO) is a nonprofit, interactive center that nurtures innovation, creativity, and interest in scientific advancement among Saudi youth.
Microsoft partnered with PSSO to conduct a training for young people between the ages of 12 and 17 in information technology skills to prepare them for careers in technology. Held over four weeks, the program trained 110 teenagers in the Microsoft Digital Literacy curriculum and Microsoft Expression Web software.
In the final week of the program, five Microsoft employee volunteers helped students prepare and present group e-learning projects. Microsoft awarded Xbox video game systems to project winners. Microsoft also provided all participants with USBs carrying an Expression Web e-book, the Digital Literacy curriculum, and the course certificate. Microsoft also contributed 17 computers with Windows 7 to the project, making PSSO the first nongovernmental organization in Saudi Arabia to receive the software.
On the Unlimited Potential team we work with the common understanding that education is the cornerstone of economic opportunity and I am always amazed at how far my team will go to make sure that the benefits of technology are extended to communities worldwide, year-round. One of our global initiatives for education is called Partners in Learning (PiL). We've talked about PiL on World Updates before, but just a reminder that the goal with this initiative is threefold:
1. Help schools gain better access to technology. 2. Foster innovative approaches to teacher professional development. 3. Provide education leaders with the tools to envision, implement and manage change.
Much of this work continues in the summer when teachers have a little more time on their hands. For example, as the school year came to a close in Armenia we welcomed more than 150 Armenian teachers, school principals and education officials to an interactive conference to discuss the use of technology in education.
At the conference we celebrated the launch of the the new Armenian Innovative Teachers Network, a virtual community for teachers who want to transform their classrooms into technology-rich learning environments. In addition to active discussion forums where teachers can connect directly with each other, the network includes a wealth of information, content, tools, and resources that can help educators use technology more effectively in the classroom.
Many thanks to all of the attendees at the event for sharing their experiences. Looking forward to hearing more about how some of the ideas are implemented when the school year starts!

"Why Not" was released as a single outside the United States on June 23, 2003 and later included on Hilary Duff's second album, Metamorphosis, with different lyrics in the first verse. The album has been certified platinum by the CRIA and 2x platinum by the RIAA has sold 2,000,000 copies in the U.S.
The film based on ABC's hugely popular tween/young adult TV show Lizzie McGuire, The Lizzie McGuire Movie, features an appropriately playful and romantic mix of teen pop — including several songs by Hilary Duff (Lizzie herself) — dance-pop, and ballads that reflects the movie's vacation-in-Rome plot. Not coincidentally, Duff's songs are among the best on the album. "Why Not," its remix, and "What Dreams Are Made Of" don't feature especially memorable songwriting or arrangements. In fact, they sound a little dated. However, Duff herself shows promise as a singer, and more importantly, as a vocal personality; she's a charming actress who has the potential to become a charismatic singer if she's given more interesting material to work with.
Overall, the soundtrack's perky, upbeat songs fare better than the somewhat drippy ballads — Atomic Kitten's "The Tide Is High (Get the Feeling)," the Cooler Kids' "All Around the World" (which was co-produced by Luscious Jackson's Jill Cunniff), and Jump5′s "Shining Star" have the weightless sweetness of the best teen pop, along with a slightly hip edge. Vitamin C's cover of the Italian pop classic "Volare" works better in theory than it does in practice; while she has the pipes to make the song work, the pounding rhythm on this version robs the melody of almost all of its swing. Similarly, Taylor Dayne's cover of "Supermodel" pales in comparison to RuPaul's original; it's unclear whether or not his/her version didn't appear because of licensing costs or because Disney didn't want to include a song by a drag queen on the soundtrack to a family film. The slower tracks, like Paolo & Isabella's "What Dreams Are Made Of (Ballad Version)" and LMNT's "Open Your Eyes (To Love)" just don't have any of the funky sense of fun or sensitivity that makes Lizzie McGuire so popular; they're sappy instead of moving. Overall, The Lizzie McGuire Movie is a fun but not especially memorable soundtrack; the soundtrack to the TV show captures the sweet giddiness of its heroine better, but most Lizzie fans won't be too disappointed by this album.

About Me
So, my real name is Eduard Jurjević, but my friends know me as "dabar", or in English "Beaver". I was born/live in Zagreb, the capital of Croatia. Besides playing pc games, i enjoy going out with my friend (and the other typical teen stuff), warhammer 40k (i own a large Ork army), South Park. I gave up watching tv long time ago since it it became boring, repeating the same old movies over and over again, and since then i watch movies from my pc. Im a large zombie movie fan, and my favorite zombie movie is Outpost/Dead snow. I also enjoy watching Allo Allo, and i finished watching Drawn togheter long time ago. In music, im very open minded:Rammstein, Metallica, Disturbed, sometimes Bloodhound gang, ACDC, and some local music. When it comes to video games, im not picky either. My most loved game is Overlord (with Raising Hell), and im currently playing Overlord II. I guess im getting boring now, so im gonna stop. Cheers!

Protected pond offers multiple benefits for Brown County farmer
John Geiger always dreamed of having his own pond with a floating dock--somewhere his children could swim and where he could have picnics and campouts. Because of conservation practices on his farm, that dream has come true for the Brown County livestock producer.
The initial purpose of the pond was to supply water for Geiger's 20 cow herd; however, because of the water quality practices that Geiger also implemented, the recreational aspect was an added benefit.
After purchasing a 68-acre pasture a few years ago, Geiger said he had his work cut out for him. In order to prioritize the work needed on the Brown County pasture, Geiger completed the River Friendly Farm Project environmental self-assessment.
Ed Reznicek, a field organizer with the Kansas Rural Center's Clean Water Farms Project, assisted Geiger in completing RFFP assessment. Joining Geiger for an evening session working on the notebook were his brother and a friend, who completed assessments of their own farms.
The buddy approach, or working with a friend or family member, according to Reznicek, can be a rewarding way to approach the environmental assessment and whole farm planning. "We started on the notebook late afternoon, took a short break for supper, and then finished the notebooks that same evening. It took a total of about four hours," stated Reznicek. "Plus, we had some stimulating discussion on issues brought up in going through the notebook."
Geiger likes to think of the health of the watershed as a whole with the quantity and quality of water as the focus. "Water is life. Without it we wouldn't be here."
Despite Geiger's pre-existing awareness of conservation practices and water quality, the notebook caused him to think of it in terms relative to his own operation. He said the figures and numbers of his own situation gave him insight. "It causes you to reassess your own situation--and find something you may not have thought of," he said.
The three priorities the RFFP notebook highlighted for Geiger included: water quality related to livestock entering the creek, the need for alternative watering sources in the pasture, and grassland management to improve grazing and manure.
Geiger determined the solution to his need for a water source was to build a small pond (under one acre) and install a waterer below the pond's dam. This would eliminate the need for the cattle to use the small creek as a drinking water source. The creek drains into a tributary of the Wolf River. In addition to eroding the creek banks, the cattle also deposit manure into the creek while drinking.
To offset some of the costs involved in installing an alternative water source and fencing the pond, Geiger applied for and received cost-share through KRC's CWF-RFFP. Geiger said the initial purpose of the pond is "to retain water and create a water source for cattle."
"The pond grabs that water and releases it slowly to reduce erosion," he said.
After construction of the small pond, Geiger installed a concrete waterer below the pond dam. Geiger said Reznicek suggested the waterer--a 200 gallon concrete tank partially buried in the pond's dam. "It is a better long-term option--it will be here for years to come," Geiger said.
Using a permanent high tensile wire electric fence, powered by a solar panel and battery, John excluded the cattle from the pond to reduce erosion as well as bacteria contributed from the cattle. He planted grass along the banks of the pond and plans to flash graze the pond area "to get the grass knocked down and allow the cattle to spread the seed" he said. According to Reznicek, this allows the cattle to utilize and maintain the forage.
Geiger emphasized the importance of adequate grass around a pond. "Grass filter strips above the pond filter the water from a rain event before the water reaches the pond," he said. "It is important to have grass to catch all those nutrients from the chemicals and manure."
Another issue in Geiger's pasture is brush control. Cedars and hedge trees were allowed to invade the pasture and choke the grass. In the areas where Geiger cleared the invasive trees, he sees signs of native grass returning. "I love seeing the natives," he said, pointing out side oats grama, little bluestem, lespedeza and wild flowers. "It is a good sign to see native grasses," he said.
With the return of the native species, Geiger is encouraged by the variety returning to the pasture. "Biodiversity is the key salad bar pasture," he explained, referring to the theory that cattle's diet should consist of a variety of ample grasses, forbs, and legumes. "The cattle have more choices," he said.
To encourage additional biodiversity, Geiger plans to sub-divide the pasture into three paddocks. He will follow a management plan and move his herd into a new paddock once a week. Geiger explained this is a realistic goal for an operation the size of his.
In addition to the diversity of plant species, Geiger observed a variety of wildlife in his pasture including bobcat, deer, turkey, rabbits and coyotes. To encourage diversity, Geiger said he will leave some of the timber as a "native area" instead of clearing the pasture entirely. "I like trees--I'll leave a little of it wild," he said.
While Geiger admits he has his work cut out for him, he's encouraged by the progress he's made so far. And an occasional trip to the pond reminds him of the importance of water quality on his farm. "Seeing the kids jump in and swim makes it all worth it," he said.

UPDATE: Friday, March 16, 2012
The attorney for a soldier accused of killing 16 civilians in Afghanistan says the suspect is from Lake Tapps, Wash.
John Henry Browne, a defense attorney from Seattle, confirmed the identity of 38-year-old Army Staff Sgt. Robert Bales on Friday.
The military had earlier declined to name the suspect. A senior U.S. official said Friday it was Bales, speaking on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the investigation into an incident that has roiled relations with Afghanistan.
Friday, March 16, 2012
A senior defense official says the U.S. soldier accused in the killings of 16 Afghan civilians is expected to be flown to the U.S. military prison at Fort Leavenworth, Kan., as early as Friday.
The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because of security surrounding the move, says the shift does not necessarily mean a decision was imminent on announcing formal criminal charges
against the suspect.
The suspect, whose name has not been made public, was moved from Afghanistan to Kuwait on Wednesday. Officials say that transfer was necessary because there was no appropriate detention facility to
hold him in Afghanistan.
Ft. Leavenworth is the military's only maximum-security prison.

This is not "hit or miss" material, and I'll tell you why: Because Rihanna can't possibly be serious. It's like someone dared her to do this, like they said, "Rihanna, so many people out there think you're a fashion goddess, I'll bet you could make pajamas look good on a red carpet." And, well, here they are.
Rihanna donned these silky PJ's to the Tokyo premiere of her new movie Battleship this week, and I'd say between her gold accessories and her to-die-for skin tone, she's 90% pulling it off. Am I giving her too much credit?
What do you think, lovelies? Do you love or hate Rihanna's tongue-in-chic look? Is she thumbing her nose at the critics? Or do you think she is really trying to start a trend here?

Get ready to see some messes piled up on Wausau street curbs, over the next 2 weeks, that's because it's the city's annual "Large Item Pickup".
Department of Public Works crews are going house to house, picking up items like old couches, water heaters, lawn mowers, and dining room tables.
It's all items that people no longer have a use for, but are too large to throw away for a weekly garbage pickup.
Crews are not picking up any bags of trash, appliances or electronics.
"If they have trash out there and it's just bag after bag of trash, or newspapers, or magazines or garbage, just general garbage...that will still be there after we go by. They'll have to wait until trash day", said Wausau Street Superintendent, Don Skare.
The pick-up goes from Monday, April 25th through May 6th. City workers will tackle one neighborhood at a time.

I Survived: A Marie Claire Exclusive
As the gun control debate rages on, Marie Claire gathered seven women who lived through Newtown, Aurora, and other mass shootings. In this exclusive, they reveal the truth about life after unthinkable traumaand explain how they're taking action to prevent more tragedies. Read our candid interview with former Arizona Representative Gabrielle Giffords about her fight for gun reform—and her own recovery.

Newtown, Connecticut
December 14, 2012
Clements, a teacher, was preparing to start an art project with her second-grade class when Adam Lanza stormed Sandy Hook Elementary School, killing 20 children and six adults.
I was lucky: The gunman turned left instead of right, where my classroom was. When I first heard gunshots, I pulled all 19 kids into the coat area and started singing Christmas songs to shield them from the sounds. But it was impossible. Between the gunfire, we heard muffled cries. One little girl hugged my leg, saying, "I want my mommy" over and over.
Then I heard police sirens and told the kids, "The good guys are coming!" The scariest part was leaving that room. I had my right arm around one little girl and several kids held on to my left side. Everyone ran to the firehouse nearby. There, I started hearing blips of horror, names of people possibly shot. I put my hands over my ears to shut it out. Hysterical parents were arriving looking for their kids. When I left, many were still waiting. That's when this new phase of my life began. First there were the wakes. Now there's the recovery effort. Teachers are a part of that. I have to be strong for my kids. But I have only just begun to deal with the enormity of the loss. My guilt is deep; I think about all the people who were killed or wounded.
Our town has adopted a new mantra since terror rained down on it: Newtown chooses love. But we can't just say itwe have to do it. There is a complacency in this country. People just move on to the next tragedy. But I don't want it to stop there. I've made phone calls and written letters to legislators, and gone to several meetings to support better gun control laws. It is an important piece of moving forward. It pulls me out of the trauma and toward something bigger. @newtownaction

Cedar City, UT (SportsNetwork.com) - Gary Winston posted a game-high 26 points as the Portland State Vikings held on to defeat the Southern Utah Thunderbirds, 86-79, in Big Sky Conference action at Centrum Arena.
Also scoring in double figures for the Vikings (12-12, 7-8 Big Sky) were Dashaun Wiggins and Andre Winston with 19 and 13 points, respectively, as the team snapped a four-game slide.
The Thunderbirds (1-23, 0-15), losers of a staggering 22 consecutive contests since opening the season with a win over Arizona Christian, were led by Casey Oliverson who registered a double-double consisting of 19 points and a game- high 10 rebounds, his scoring total matched by Trey Kennedy off the bench. John Marshall pitched in with 15 points, shooting 9-of-11 at the free-throw line.
Both programs made only nine field goals in the first half, but even with just 2-of-10 accuracy beyond the arc in the period, PSU was able to pull out to a 29-26 advantage at the break.
In the second half SUU actually led by three points at the 13:10 mark and shot an impressive 59.3 percent from the floor, but at the same time the Vikings were hitting on 54.8 percent from the field and 18-of-20 at the free-throw line to claim the win.
The game featured eight ties and 14 lead changes, with Portland State pulling out the victory by outscoring the hosts on the perimeter (21-6) and turning the ball over just six times.
The Thunderbirds are three days shy of going a full calendar year since capturing their last win over a Division I foe (Cal State Northridge) on Feb. 23, 2013. It has been even longer since the squad took down a league opponent, having last defeated a Big Sky member on Feb. 7, 2013 (Idaho State).

Posthumus from Cymbeline at the Globe
Tony Calderbank blogs about South Sudan Theatre Company's recent performance of Shakespeare's Cymbeline in Juba Arabic at the Globe Theatre, how the world's newest nation took the London stage by storm and shows that it is the poets and musicians who create the soul of a country.
The South Sudan Theatre Company performed Cymbeline at the Globe Theatre last week. Their Juba Arabic version, capturing the work of the great bard in feisty African idiom, delighted the audiences who attended the two performances.
The first, a matinee, drew over 400, mostly groundlings at five pounds a shot, gathered around the stage, chins resting on arms folded over the boards, looking up in awe at imposing Posthumus and delightful, tragic Innogen. The crowd took to them instantly, much to the relief of the South Sudanese Minister of Culture and his delegation, who had made the trip to support the troupe. The performance was wonderfully interactive with hisses and boos and laughter and cheers and handshakes and high fives. Raucous applause followed each scene.
The second was an evening show with over a thousand people in attendance; more formal an audience, the chair of the British Council among them, with perhaps a sharper critic's eye. Nevertheless the spectators thrilled to see the vibrant performance, these beautiful black people, their energy, their charm, their wicked sense of humour, cleverly combining some solemn, formal classicism and adherence with touches of slapstick and irreverence; the warm glow of Africa on the South Bank amid the pigeons and the drizzle and the crisp London air.
Among the audience were members of the South Sudanese diaspora, the privileged few who could actually follow the play in its Juban mantle. 'Oooooh' and 'eeeeeeh' and 'aaaaaah' went the group of South Sudanese ladies come down from Birmingham, as they watched the tender exchange of love tokens, or Iachomo sneaking a damning peek up Innogen's nightdress in the bedroom scene.
The story of Cymbeline, has relevance for the people of South Sudan: Rome, a powerful neighbour demanding tribute from Britain and threatening war when it is withheld, the young lovers whose feelings for one another are stronger than their loyalty to clan and country, the machinations of court politics and the ambition of the wicked Queen. Only when the poison stops can reconciliation take place.
Linguistically the play represents a landmark moment in the development of Juba Arabic. Hitherto forth regarded as a pigeon, a creole, an inferior variety of the great Semitic mother tongue, Joseph Abuk's translation of the play is a literary achievement of enormous significance. Arabi Juba has proven itself capable of hosting a classic of English literature. Arabi Juba has come of age.
The adaptation included Bari funeral songs, the ceremonial ostrich feather headdress of the Lotuku kings atop Cymbeline's head, Cornelius the physician transformed into kujur, the wise eccentric tribal shaman, and the scintillating Acholi dancing that followed the final scene to end the performance. But above all, everyone was wondering, where did poor ravaged South Sudan find actresses and actors of such calibre?
Despite all the development needs and the many millions of dollars pouring into health and food security, roads and dams and latrines, it is poets and musicians who create the soul of a country. These performances at the Globe have shown that a band of thespians from different linguistic and tribal backgrounds, with will and determination, can forge a nation's identity.
All the world's a stage, of course, and over the next few months the Globe stage will host players from around the world. How wonderful then that South Sudan, the world's newest nation, should take her place so forcefully, and so enchant the theatre goers of London.

|Drug Name:
|Other Info:
Mode of Action: Pentoxifylline and its metabolites improve the flow properties of blood by decreasing its viscosity.
In patients with chronic peripheral arterial disease, this increases blood flow to the affected microcirculation and enhances tissue oxygenation.
The precise mode of action of pentoxifylline and the sequence of events leading to clinical improvement are still to be defined.
Pentoxifylline administration has been shown to produce dose-related hemorrheologic effects, lowering blood viscosity, and improving erythrocyte flexibility.
Leukocyte properties of hemorrheologic importance have been modified in animal and in vitro human studies.
Pentoxifylline has been shown to increase leukocyte deformability and to inhibit neutrophil adhesion and activation.Tissue oxygen levels have been shown to be significantly increased by therapeutic doses of pentoxifylline in patients with peripheral arterial disease.
|Clinical Trials:
Pentoxil® (Pentoxifylline Extended-release Tablets, USP) is indicated for the treatment of patients with intermittent claudication on the basis of chronic occlusive arterial disease of the limbs.Pentoxil® can improve function and symptoms but is not intended to replace more definitive therapy, such as surgical bypass, or removal of arterial obstructions when treating peripheral vascular disease.
