`The Dictator` inspired by Moammar Khadafy, says Sacha Baron Cohen
Submitted by Kiran Pahwa on Sat, 05/19/2012 - 15:33
New York, May 19 : Sacha Baron Cohen has revealed that Moammar Khadafy, who ruled over the people of Libya for decades, was the inspiration behind the titular buffoon in his new movie "The Dictator."
The 40-year-old considers the late Libyan despot to be quite `absurd'.
"Col. Khadafy was kind of the most absurd of the dictators," the New York Daily News quoted Cohen as telling in an interview on `CBS This Morning.
"Obviously vicious, but he would dress unintentionally like a 65-year-old woman."
"(He) often broke wind during interviews with the BBC. Had 15 virgin guards to protect him at all times. Very few of whom remained as virgins," said the actor
However, when asked about people who may be offended by his brand of comedy, Cohen briefly turned serious.
"The idea is that comedy should be free.
"To single out a particular group and say we can't make a joke about them is almost a form of prejudice and it's kind of patronizing," he added. (ANI)

Sony touts tasty portable DVD player

If you weren't the sort of person who reads the Reg, I could understand the attraction of a dedicated device where you just throw DVDs in.
But I'd expect anyone here who wants to watch movies on a 7 inch screen with a device of that form-factor would be better off spending the extra ~£50 to get an Eee, surely?

Cumbrian teenager shaves head for charity on her 18th birthday
Last updated at 13:06, Wednesday, 06 February 2013
Katie-Ann Richards celebrated a milestone birthday in an unforgettable way – by shedding her locks in memory of her grandmother who lost her battle with cancer.
The Workington teenager was devastated when her 'Nana' died in 2011 after a two-year-battle with breast cancer, so the brave young woman decided that she wanted to raise awareness of the disease as well as raising money at the same time to help fund research.
In front of family and friends at Principal Hair Studio in Workington, Katie-Ann watched her brown locks get shaved off.
And the cash that she raises from the daring task she undertook on her 18th birthday will go towards Breakthrough Breast Cancer.
"It went really well," Katie-Ann told the News & Star. "I was terrified and so nervous – yet I was laughing and so happy I was doing something for a good cause."
After her trip to the hairdressers, Katie-Ann – who works at the town's Morrisons superstore – went out to have a meal with her friends to celebrate.
"My friends said I look like a version of Sinead O'Connor and I was just very happy that I had managed to reach my target for the charity," she said.
"There is no better feeling than knowing you have helped another person."
Katie-Ann, from Northumberland Street, said that her Nana, Elizabeth Davison, who was known as Liz, would have been proud of what she had done.
" I chose to shave my head on my birthday, as it will be more meaningful to me on that date," said the former Stainburn School pupil.
"My family are all very proud of me for being brave, as they put it, and for raising money for charity.
"I'm sure that my Nana would have been very proud of me as well."
Katie-Ann has reached her target of £700 and anyone who would like to donate to Katie-Ann's cancer charity cause can do so through the Just Giving fundraising website at www.justgiving.com/katie-ann-richards

Legacy of Blaze is a Sonic the Hedgehog fan-Sprite Comic by Some New Guy.Taking place two years after the events of Sonic the Hedgehog (2006), the story centers on Blaze the Cat, now with the spirit of destruction, Iblis, sealed within her. The story opens with Blaze (and Iblis) stuck in the alternate dimension she sealed herself in at the end of Silver's story in 2006, but after a chain of events involving Eggman, Metal Sonic, Tikal and Chaos Control, she is back on Earth, only, thanks to the Reset Button Ending of 2006, her time of 2206 no longer exists, so she's essentially a fish out of temporal water. However, her return has not gone unnoticed, as several dark factions have decided they could use the power of Iblis for themselves...The comic is hosted on Drunk Duck and Smackjeeves.

Calabasas to Ban Smoking in Private Residences
Michael Moretti
Posted: October 5, 2007
In the near future, a good Calabasas realtor might advise smoking clients to become homeowners rather than renters.
On Wednesday, the California suburb's city council explored a proposal that would strengthen the town's already stringent smoking ban to include new multi-unit residences, along with their attached patios and balconies, among the place where puffing is illegal. New tenants, those occupying a residence after the effective date of the ordinance, if passed, would not have the option of smoking in their apartments. Those occupying "existing apartments," living there prior to a possible ordinance effective date, would have 60 days after it goes through to write a letter and get an exemption, which would continue as long as they stayed put. Moving to a new apartment would forfeit this right.
Calabasas is a town that prides itself on being a smoke-free municipality, calling itself Clean Air Calabasas, a smoke-free city. Last March, the council extended its smoking ban, which includes virtually all indoor public places, to include most open-air spaces as well. The only place you can smoke are in certain designated areas the town labeled as "smoker's outposts" or any outdoor public area in which "no non-smoker is present." Private residences were not within the reach of the ban at the time.
The council is expected to revisit the issue in November.

Altos Los Romeros Sauvignon Blanc 2013
Altos Los Romeros - Cuyo - Argentina
Sauvignon Blanc is widely considered to be one of the finest varietals of white wine grapes. The green skinned fruit is notable for ripening relatively early in the year, due to the fact that it prefers milder temperatures and cannot maintain its distinctive flavors in hot climates. As such, it has become a favorite grape varietal for wineries in many very different countries around the world, where it can benefit from brisk, coastal breezes and mild early summers. Sauvignon Blanc is revered for its freshness and zesty character, and generally produces wines which are dry and very crisp on the palate. However, there are a wide variety of wines produced from this wonderfully versatile grape with many wineries preferring to age the fermented juices in oak, or allowing malolactic fermentation to add a creamier, buttery finish to the grassy and tropical, citrus flavors it often carries.
Argentina's Cuyo region has, for several decades now, been renowned worldwide for the high quality of its fruit-forward and remarkably flavorful wines. The arid region includes such famous provinces as the Mendoza, and wineries in Cuyo often have generations of experience when it comes to making the most of the mineral rich yet arid soils which typify the mountainous landscape. The Desaguadero River and its tributaries form many natural valleys through the Cuyo region, and as such, irrigation has long since provided the dry and dusty vineyard with a fertile and crystal-clear water source, straight from the snowy peaks of the nearby Andes. Although Malbec is the grape varietal most commonly associated with Cuyo, wineries continue to experiment with other varietals there, and the wine industry of Cuyo in Argentina continues to go from strength to strength.
In the dry, arid deserts of Argentina, wineries and winemakers are focusing their efforts on producing high quality wines for the world market. By experimenting with both traditional and modern methods and technologies, they have found great success with a wide variety of grapes well suited to the conditions of the country, particularly Malbec, Bonarda and Cabernet Sauvignon. Over the past decade, Argentinian wineries have continued to aim high, and this has led to a range of new wines using grape varietals not typically associated with the country. The cooler regions of Argentina are seeing more vineyards being planted with Cabernet Franc and Pinot Noir varietals, something that is beginning to produce fantastic results, which are at once representative of the country's wines - with all their fruity and bold character - but are also pushing the boundaries of what we expect from a New World country.

About ШіЩғШі ЩҮЩҶШҜЩҠ
ШіЩғШі ЩҮЩҶШҜЩҠ The rivalry between Google and Yahoo is not very important especially for the Internet users because it can cause only an improved performance of the products designed by the two companies. ШіЩғШі ЩҶЩғ Today a lot of people only know how to complain and judge but don`t know the backbone of how hard it truly is also to create a perfect cartoon. ШіЩғШі.ЩҶЩғ
This utilization has been subsequently carried on in every single game in the series and is not extremely more graphic in IV. ШіЩғШі ЩҶЩғ However, the martial arts choreography in this movie is another led down. ШіЩғШі.ЩҶЩғ Now…for the bad… While the show stays true to the manga, that`s all it really is. .. ШіЩғШі ШҜЩҶЩҠЩ…Ш§ШұЩғЩҠ The characters are only similar in name and the story feels like they chewed it up and spit it out and whatever stuck to the storyboard they went with. But the movie is far better than Dragonball Evolution. ШіЩғШі ШҜЩҶЩҠЩ…Ш§ШұЩғЩҠ It seems like Yahoo Mail is so well-updated because the solution returns a lot of errors when a user tries to check his accounts.
It almost seems like they wanted to make this movie as bad and as far away from the original story as they could. These goggles keep the Sigma Six team connected to Hi-Tech and the various Sat Links, but it also turns the GI Joe team into nothing more than drones controlled by the mainframe.
ШіЩғШі ЩҮЩҶШҜЩҠ To me this whole thing isn`t making any sense at all because there are not established fans across the globe, and Dragonball comic and cartoon itself has last more than TWO decades.

Excellent water flow By CTReefer on 9/15/2014CTReefer would recommend this product to a friendWhat else can I say? These provide a lot of random movement that keeps my fish guessing. Only thing ive noticed is that they do seem to stick after a couple weeks and have to disassemble to clean. Nothing major to add to my weekly maintenance.
best ramdom flow By David on 7/30/2014David would recommend this product to a friendI bout two of these for my Nuvo16 and I love them and so do my corals. Some people complain about them being noisy but to be honest I have never had a problem with that. I did have to remove the Y tubing from the rear chamber and add another pump so each spin stream has it own pump, besides that all I do is clean them every so often. I would recommend this to anyone who owns a nano.
Great Upgrade! By Scott on 7/10/2014Scott would recommend this product to a friendAdded these as an upgrade to the stick nozzles on my IM Nuvo16 and I am glad I did! They defiantly move the water around in random patterns and as mentioned by others, there is a slight moving gear sound but nothing major.
Nice little addition By Scott on 4/6/2014Scott would recommend this product to a friendThis is an easy way to add additional random flow to your system. They fit very easy and are relatively quiet. Very happy with my purchase.
Best Bang for the Buck By Tim on 3/20/2014Tim would recommend this product to a friendFor the money a great way to get more random water flow. The only down side is it does make a bit of what I would say is gear noise.
Provides excellent random flow By STEVEN on 2/6/2014STEVEN would recommend this product to a friendi purchased these for my nuvo 38, it works as described providing random flow. my only gripe is that it makes a faint ticking sound as it spins. other then that its great
It just fun watching the go By David on 12/14/2013David would recommend this product to a friendI bought two for my Nuvo 16. I love the randomized flow. I recommend adding an extra pump (I added a maxi jet 900). Fish and corals love the extra flow.
Quality Affordabe Upgrade By Dave on 11/3/2013Dave would recommend this product to a friendI purchased two of these for my Nuvo 16 and it was a great upgrade from the stock return nozzle. There is a little less flow but the stock return openings are very narrow and wide. I upgraded my single 211 gallon per hour return pump for 2 200 GPH pumps. There is a lot of motion with this nozzle and it creates a nice wave motion in the aquarium and does keep debris off the bottom. They are completely silent. Overall they are a great upgrade and are cheap.
Affordable Upgrade By Cody on 4/17/2013Cody would recommend this product to a friendThe spinstream nozzles are a great first upgrade for beginners using this tank. They provide better and more random water flow and are very affordable.
nice upgrade By Cory on 4/5/2013Cory would recommend this product to a friendOk I am a huge fan of the IM stuff, mainly because their tanks are easy to setup and due to the size I have two nano reefs in my office. I own three of the slipstream nozzles, one for my Nano 8 and two for my Mini 38. Contrary to what you may read on the internet I can confirm that they work fine on a Nano 8 with the pump set to max. Yes there is a little less flow, but I can say that the motion keeps debris on the move and with only one powerhead it adds random motion that I need. As for the Mini 38, they work great and accent my two powerheads on a wave maker. I did notice a little noise with the two on my Mini 38, but the noise in pale in comparison to the noise from the protein skimmer. But if you don't have a skimmer and the tank is say on a nightstand you might be bothered by it at night if it is dead silent. Overall I am glad I bought the slip streams and they add benefit to both my IM tanks.

A handbook for the happy, and a bible for the broken-hearted, The Alphabet of the Human Heart is an enchanting and enriching journey through the upside and the downside of what it means to be human - our hopes and our fears, our strength and our weakness, our highs and our lows. The Alphabet of the Human Heart is a book of literally two halves. Firstly there is upside A-Z, which is full of the happy and hopeful aspects of our lives, such as A is for Adventure, through G is for Gratitude, S is for Smile to Zen is the Place to Be. The other downside half examines the negative parts of our character lives and how we can overcome them to lead more positive and fulfilling lives. From A is for Anger, through H is for Hate, T is for Temptation to once again end on Zen is the Place to be. Matthew and James have been friends for over 30 years and they've experienced both sides of life - the upside and the downside - and they've turned their experience of life - and of friendship - into a book that combines words and pictures to tell a bigger story.Praise for I Had a Black Dog: 'I had a Black Dog says with wit, insight, economy and complete understanding what other books take 300 pages to say. Brilliant and indispensable.' Stephen Fry 'Finally, a book about depression that isn't a prescriptive self-help manual. Johnston's deftly expresses how lonely and isolating depression can be for sufferers. Poignant and humorous in equal measure.' Sunday Times Praise for Living with a Black Dog: 'Moving and thoughtfully written ...a must-have' Daily Mirror 'Comprehensive and very helpful ...brilliant' Guardian Weekend

ChunkIt, A New Information Extraction Add-On, Now Available
ChunkIt is a toolbar that digs deep into the links found on web pages, extracting "chunks" of information from those pages, allowing you to quickly find relevant content without having to click through on the links yourself. Think of the process you already use when scanning search results, or long web pages that are rich with links. ChunkIt saves you the time of clicking through and scanning multiple web pages for the exact bits of information you're looking for.
You can use ChunkIt in conjunction with search result pages, with deep content sites like Wikipedia, project Gutenberg or news sites, user generated content sites like eBay or Craigslist—really just about any site where you'd like to see relevant snippets of content surfaced automatically rather than digging deep on your own for the information you're looking for.
More about ChunkIt, including video examples of the toolbar in action, is available here, or you can jump directly to the free download for Firefox or Internet Explorer.

Bear-Hunt Bill Passes Committee, Moves To General Assembly
Connecticut is one step closer to a bear hunt after a legislative committee approved a bill Wednesday that would establish a fee system and lottery for sportsmen to win a chance at killing a bear.
While animal activists are outraged, supporters of a hunt say the state's burgeoning bear population has spread to the suburbs. Increasingly, the omnivores are lumbering into backyards, chomping on bird feeders, threatening — and in some cases, killing — livestock, toppling beekeepers' hives and digging through trash cans.
The bill passed the Environment Committee in a 19-9 vote with one person absent. The proposal, which lays the groundwork for a bear season, now moves to the General Assembly. Only the state commissioner of Energy and Environmental Protection would decide if and when to start a bear hunt.
More than 70 people submitted letters about the bill, many opposed to bear hunting.
"I am a 20-plus year resident of Tolland, CT with property that backs up to woods," Kim Hoyt wrote to state legislators. "I have horses and often have seen hunters in the back woods. I have a great fear they could shoot one of my horses without knowing it is not a deer or even a bear. My children also play in our back yard and I am afraid of stray bullets."
Others warned the legislators about a growing bear threat in Connecticut.
"I have friends that have lots of bears living near them and run through their back yards all the time. Their children can no longer play safely outside without supervision," Bridgeport resident Ed Menegazzo said in written testimony to the legislature.
In the proposed lottery system, hunters would pay $10 for a chance to kill and keep a bear, though only a limited number of hunters would be allowed to do so. The select number of people who win a bear-hunt lottery would have to pay an additional $200 for a license to hunt a bear.
The bill would require the state Department of Energy and Environmental Protection to submit a report by Feb. 14, 2014, establishing a lottery system of collecting fees for a bear hunt. The bill also says a bear hunt program should have a specified territory, season and a list of approved hunting methods.
DEEP was reluctant to embrace the bill, instead saying that the issue needs more research. The agency and the University of Connecticut just finished the first year of a four-year study of Connecticut's bear population.
The study is to "better determine the size of the black bear population in Northwest Connecticut, evaluate habitats for population expansion, and estimate future populations," Energy and Environmental Commissioner Daniel C. Esty wrote in his testimony for the bill.
"We know the bear population is growing and spreading across the state," said DEEP spokesman Dennis Schain. "We understand concerns some have expressed about increased interactions between bears and humans that could result. We also recognize that many sportsmen have an interest in hunting bear in Connecticut. We believe, however, that the first order of business is for us to work with UConn to complete the study we have launched in order to obtain the scientific information needed to make informed decisions about managing the bear population."
Last year, state wildlife officials drafted the framework for a bear-hunt lottery, but it was squashed after The Courant reported that DEEP was weighing a hunt. DEEP's legislative proposal was taken out before it made it to the General Assembly, only getting as far as Gov. Dannel P. Malloy's office and the Office of Policy and Management in January 2012.
In other states, hunting lotteries are sometimes used when the demand to hunt animals exceeds the supply to maintain a sustainable wildlife population. For example, Maine has a lottery system for people who want to hunt moose and gets far more entrants to the lottery than the licenses issued by the state to shoot one.
During most of the past 170 years, black bears — Ursus americanus — were nowhere in the state. They were hunted completely by 1840, and the woodland habitat that provides food and shelter for them was cleared to make way for farms. Bears wandered back into Connecticut from the northern states in the 1980s, and the state is much more forested these days, providing a good place for bears to live.
Homes built in rural areas, near where bears live, and the growing population of bears has led to some of the bear population venturing into neighborhoods for food.
Animal activists say the problem of nuisance bears can be resolved through education. If people take in their bird feeders and trash cans, it would cut down on the problems, activists say.
"It's counterproductive to have a hunt in one place and not address the area where the conflict is occurring. The answer is public education, the answer is removing attractants — accessible garbage and bird feeders would be two examples," said Annie Hornish, state director of The Humane Society of the U.S.
Hornish also takes issue with the state using statistics of bear sightings to estimate populations, saying that people could be seeing the same bear over and over.
"So, that's why it has to be a very prolonged study done — the population risk assessments are important to be done in a very scientific manner because you could have the same people seeing the same problem bear in a certain suburban setting," Hornish said.
The bill doesn't establish a bear hunt, it only sets the framework for a fee system if state wildlife officials decide a bear hunt is necessary at some point in the future, said state Rep. Craig Miner, a Republican representing Bethlehem, Litchfield, Warren and Woodbury.
DEEP has testified in the past that it spends a lot of money and time relocating problem bears that get into people's trash, said Miner, who is a member of the Environment Committee and voted to move the bill to the General Assembly.
"Many states generate a lot of money through a lottery system because they have a finite number of tags, and that's where a lot of money gets raised," Miner said. "It's an asset of the state of Connecticut. It's a life. It has a value. I'm not saying that we should be marketing it, but certainly enough of them are killed annually by cars, by the DEEP, by police agencies because they've been hit by cars or are a danger to someone else, that I think some of us feel having this conversation is an important conversation. And the timing is right to have the conversation."Copyright © 2014, Hartford Courant

Aggravating Conflicts
U.S. Foreign Policy Is a Shambles
With al-Qaeda affiliates wreaking havoc in Iraq, Senators John McCain and Lindsey Graham seem to lament that no U.S. troops are on the scene to get in on the action.
"The Administration must recognize the failure of its policies in the Middle East and change course," McCain and Graham said.
Change course? Do they want to send troops back to Iraq, so they can do more dying and killing?
McCain and Graham, who never saw an opportunity for U.S. military intervention they didn't like, continue to operate under the absurd illusion that American politicians and bureaucrats can micromanage something as complex as a foreign society. Their hubris knows no bounds, but, then, they never pay the price for their foolishness. Who pays? The Americans they cheer off to war, but even more so, the people in foreign lands who are on the receiving end of American intervention.
How do those scoundrels in Washington sleep?
If you haven't noticed, American foreign policy is a shambles. Iraq and Afghanistan are engulfed in violence, and their corrupt, authoritarian governments are objects of suspicion and hatred. The suggestion that U.S. forces could make things better only shows how out of touch people in Washington can be.
Anyone who was thinking clearly in 2001–2003 knew it would come to this. Afghanistan has a history of driving out invaders. Only someone blinded by the allure of empire could fool himself into thinking the U.S. government could arrange affairs such that they wouldn't unravel the moment U.S. personnel prepared to leave the country.
The 2003 Iraq invasion raised even more questions about the ability of policymakers to engage in clear thinking. Under Saddam Hussein, the minority Sunni Muslims ruled the Shi'ite majority, many of whom were sympathetic to Shi'ite Iran, America's supposed bête noir. Take out Saddam, and Iran's friends would rule. Indeed, the man who became Iraq's prime minister, Nouri al-Maliki, was handpicked by Iranian authorities. (Ironically, the Shi'ite leader that the Bush administration chose to fight, Muqtada al-Sadr, was the most nationalist of Iraqi Shi'ites and least sympathetic to Iran.)
With Shi'ites in control, Iraqi Sunnis resisted. And then came the al-Qaeda fighters, who saw a chance to kill both Shi'ites and Americans. Hence the continued violence in Iraq, even though U.S. forces left at the end of 2011 — despite the Obama administration's best effort to keep some there.
Iraq and Afghanistan are not the only places where U.S. foreign policy is in disarray. Take Egypt. The Obama administration — including Secretary of State Hillary Clinton — stuck with hated military dictator and ally Hosni Mubarak until the bitter end and even then tried to have his second-in-command and torturer in chief, Omar Suleiman, take over when Mubarak was finished. That didn't work, of course, and a fledgling democracy (whatever its imperfections) began to sprout wings.
The Obama administration praised Egyptian democratic aspirations, but when the military deposed President Muhammad Morsi last year, the administration sided with the coup makers — although it could not use the word coup, for that would require stopping the annual $1.5 billion payment to the Egyptian military. The U.S. government has no desire to end that appropriation, because it keeps Egypt in the American camp and blunts its support for the Palestinians, who are under occupation by U.S. partner Israel. With Egypt's military government cracking down on the civil liberties of the members of Morsi's Muslim Brotherhood, U.S. policy looks more monstrous every day.
Speaking of Israel, Secretary of State John Kerry seems to be going all out for a peace agreement between the government of Benjamin Netanyahu and the Palestinians, but Kerry's effort has a fatal flaw at its core. Netanyahu & Co. don't want the Palestinians to have a viable, autonomous state free of Israeli domination. We know this because the prime minister keeps announcing plans for more illegal Jewish-only residences on Palestinian land acquired through war. Kerry won't condemn this flagrant undermining of "peace" talks because he, like so many American politicians, is beholden to Israel's powerful American lobby.
Then there's Libya and Syria — but you get the idea. U.S. foreign intervention aggravates conflicts and puts America on the side of oppressors. No wonder it's falling to pieces.
