A ribbon cutting was held Thursday for Hastings High School's new science wing.
The public got a first look at the new addition after a ceremony.
Even with the project's $7 million price tag, school officials said it was a steal. They used both low and no interest bonds from the board of education and money from the American Recovery Act to keep the price down.
The new science wing is just one part of the project at Hastings High, but officials said it was one of the most needed upgrades.
"We had great science facilities for 1955, but they were never the right size and they couldn't accommodate both the classroom setting and lab setting," said Superintendent Craig Kautz.
The old science rooms won't go to waste. School officials said they'll be turned into regular classrooms.
The entire project is scheduled to be finished by the fall of next year.

After falling to Howard College in the first round of the NJCAA Region V West Tournament on Thursday, the Frank Phillips College Lady Plainsmen tried to keep their season alive when they took on El Paso CC on Friday morning.
The Lady Plainsmen got off to a good start by scoring three runs in the top of the first inning. However El Paso would score five runs in the fith and sixth innings to come away with the 6-3 win, ending the Lady Plainsmen's 2011 season.

Six Students Arrested After Melée at Bartram High School
By Mike DeNardo
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — A lunchtime brawl today at violence-plagued Bartram High School has left six students in police custody.
One school police officer suffered minor injuries and a student was scratched in the face when the huge fight erupted.
"Bartram went into a lockdown due to a fight that broke out at the lunchroom today," says school district spokesman Fernando Gallard. "As a result, we had six students that were taken into custody."
Gallard says school officials were trying to determine what sparked the fight.
This brawl comes just days after a Bartam conflict-resolution staffer was knocked unconscious (see related story).
Gallard says that in the wake of that incident, procedures were reviewed to redeploy Bartram staff between periods, when students are changing classes.

This has become a real favorite for myself and my family. Besides being delicious, it's easly digestiable and filling. Yum!
Pretty good! I left off the pumpkin seeds, and was generous with the pumpin pie spice. A good, dense, mildy sweet bread that's great with a light butter spread. Pairing this with a hearty soup or chili makes for the perfect fall meal.
This is delicious and worth all 5 points as it is substantial and dense. My one year old loves it as well. I didn't put the pumpkin seeds on top and it didn't need it. It is great without it. I will make this again and again.
Very moist and yummy. I used what I had on hand so there were no pumpkin seeds on top and I shredded raw sweet potato rather than using cooke. My husband and 11 year old son went back for seconds. Great with my morning coffee.

Buzz: Lecavalier Speculation Part 876
Pierre LeBrun, of ESPN.com, speculates as to what the future of Vinny Lecavalier may be in Tampa Bay.
He doesn't look happy to me. He's not firing on all cylinders. His coach doesn't seem to know how to use him. It's just a bad fit right now. And the timing, well, let's just say he's in the first year of a massive lifetime deal that pays him $70 million over the first seven years.
LeBrun notes three teams that could have interest, and of course the Rangers are one of them.
…Reading this late last night it seemed like I had read this exact same thing before, and its because LeBrun wrote essentially the same thing about a month ago.It's all speculation but it makes too much sense not to connect the two parties. Lecavalier seems like he has been pushed out of the limelight in Tampa by second year man Steven Stamkos and the possibility to re-unite him and Torts and to have him center Marian Gaborik is all to appealing to not look into.
As LeBrun notes, though, its all speculation until Vinny decides what he wants to do. It would still cost an arm and a leg to get him, but it would solve the secondary scoring problem.

Heidegger, Authenticity, and Modernity, Volume 1
For more than a quarter of a century, Hubert L. Dreyfus has been the leading voice in American philosophy for the continuing relevance of phenomenology, particularly as developed by Edmund Husserl, Martin Heidegger, and Maurice Merleau-Ponty. Dreyfus has influenced a generation of students and a wide range of colleagues, and these volumes are an excellent representation of the extent and depth of that influence.
In keeping with Dreyfus's openness to others' ideas, many of the essays in this volume take the form of arguments with various of his positions. The essays focus on the dialogue with the continental philosophical tradition, in particular the work of Heidegger, that has played a foundational role in Dreyfus's thinking. The sections are Philosophy and Authenticity; Modernity, Self, and the World; and Heideggerian Encounters. The book concludes with Dreyfus's responses to the essays.

Brookwood and Wesleyan kept its grip on the Directors Cup trophies this school year.
Brookwood repeated as the Class AAAAA champions, while Wesleyan won its fifth in a row and fourth straight in Class A.
"It's a very difficult thing to do. It's hard to win one time," Brookwood AD Mark Kimbro said. "You don't have to win state championships, but it certainly helps."
Brookwood scored 1,242.5 points to beat Walton's 1,189.5 points. Mill Creek (1118.5) was third, Peachtree Ridge (885) was seventh, North Gwinnett (848) was 10th and Parkview (831) was 11th.
The award goes to the state's top athletic programs based on a point scoring system in the playoffs. The award began in the 2000-01 school year and Gwinnett has won it's seventh of the past 12 years in Class AAAAA.
Brookwood had three teams win state championships -- boys cross country, boys track and field and girls swimming. The Broncos also got a runner-up finish from their baseball team.
"It's just a really neat thing," Kimbro said. "It's great for our administrators and athletic department. It causes pride in your whole athletic department and shows you've had a great year."
Wesleyan scored 1,071 points to easily win the Class A Directors Cup over Darlington's 771 points. Hebron was 17th with 493.5 points.
"It's certainly a tremendous honor on behalf of our community," Wesleyan AD Marc Khedouri said. "Ninety percent of our students play at least one sport, so it's an honor shared by the whole school."
Wesleyan won state titles in boys cross country, boys swimming and girls basketball. The Wolves were second in girls track and field, girls tennis, softball and girls cross country and third in boys golf and boys track.
Greater Atlanta Christian was third in Class AA with 1,086 points, which was won by Westminster's 1,297.5 points.

Key areas of practice
White Collar Crimes
Rarely a day goes by without the newspapers or the media breaking the news of a white collar criminal investigation and prosecution. Stock fraud, embezzlement, insider trading, security fraud, mortgage fraud, money laundering, tax evasion, Medicare fraud… the list goes on. White-collar crimes usually fall under federal jurisdiction and are subject to investigation by federal agencies (although the state agencies may bring a parallel or subsequent action on the heels of federal agencies).
Blue Collar Crimes
Blue-collar crime is a general, catch-all term used to describe many different offenses. While the term describes crimes committed by an individual of a lower social class (as opposed to a white-collar crime), the prosecutions and sentences are often very serious. Do not be misled by the term. Anyone, from any social standing, can be falsely accused of committing a blue-collar offense. Blue-collar crimes can include crimes such as arson, assault, battery, burglary, murder, sexual assault and theft crimes.
Sex Crimes
A conviction for a sex crime could lead to a lengthy prison term, GPS monitoring, sex offender registries, residency and occupational restrictions, loss of children's custody – the list of direct and collateral consequences of a sex offense conviction grows more alarming every day. False allegations of sexual misconduct can come from a wide variety of sources: A contentious divorce proceeding, battles over child custody or support, a vindictive ex-spouse or significant other, or allegations resulting from false memories.

NORMAN — A team of students at the University of Oklahoma has come up with an inventive way to educate children about how to watch out for tornadoes and other potentially deadly weather. Juniors Andrea Balfour, David Harrison and Marissa Beene created Storm Evader, a gaming app aimed at students in middle and elementary school.
University of Oklahoma students develop app that puts weather knowledge on children's radar
"It teaches you sneakily," said Balfour, who is double majoring in computer science and meteorology. "We didn't want it to seem like we were telling kids 'sit down and learn,' but 'sit down and have fun.'"
The three students met in a programming class taught by Amy McGovern, a professor of computer science and an adjunct professor in meteorology. Balfour, Harrison and Beene were what McGovern called her "front-row students." With funding from a National Science Foundation grant, McGovern was able to hire them.
The game uses real data collected from the National Weather Service to generate 18 increasingly challenging levels. Players can select up to nine airports to which they must chart courses. The storms that move around on the screen look exactly like what a child would see watching a radar weather forecast on television. Fly a plane into a storm, and the player risks losing points or even the plane.
"Sometimes we were almost having to pry it out of a kid's hands so someone else could have a turn," Balfour said. "The game has several modes: free play, career mode and endless mode. We had to keep them away from endless or they'd never quit."
Of course, the point of the game isn't to teach kids how to fly planes. The real value of Storm Evader is in teaching students how to read radar and understand forecasts. When severe weather appears on a real screen, they'll know.

Directional drilling and hydraulic-fracturing technologies are dramatically increasing natural-gas extraction. In aquifers overlying the Marcellus and Utica shale formations of northeastern Pennsylvania and upstate New York, we document systematic evidence for methane contamination of drinking water associated with shale-gas extraction. In active gas-extraction areas (one or more gas wells within 1 km), average and maximum methane concentrations in drinking-water wells increased with proximity to the nearest gas well and were 19.2 and 64 mg CH4 L-1 (n = 26), a potential explosion hazard; in contrast, dissolved methane samples in neighboring nonextraction sites (no gas wells within 1 km) within similar geologic formations and hydrogeologic regimes averaged only 1.1 mg L-1 (P < 0.05; n = 34). Average ?13C-CH4 values of dissolved methane in shallow groundwater were significantly less negative for active than for nonactive sites (-37 ± 7‰ and -54 ± 11‰, respectively; P < 0.0001). These ?13C-CH4 data, coupled with the ratios of methane-to-higher-chain hydrocarbons, and ?2H-CH4 values, are consistent with deeper thermogenic methane sources such as the Marcellus and Utica shales at the active sites and matched gas geochemistry from gas wells nearby. In contrast, lower-concentration samples from shallow groundwater at nonactive sites had isotopic signatures reflecting a more biogenic or mixed biogenic/thermogenic methane source. READ MORE
Daily Mail – A green 'stealth' tax to encourage new wind farms and nuclear power plants could push tens of thousands of households into fuel poverty but do nothing to reduce emissions.

One factor limiting the understanding of the climate impact from contrails and aircraft induced cloud modifications is the accurate determination of their optical depth. To this end, 14 contrails were sampled for 2756 s with instruments onboard the research aircraft Falcon during the CONCERT (CONtrail and Cirrus ExpeRimenT) campaign in November 2008. The young (<10 min old) contrails were produced by 9 commercial aircraft with weights of 47 to 508 t, among them the largest operating passenger aircraft, the Airbus A380. The contrails were observed at temperatures between 214 and 224 K and altitudes between 8.8 and 11.1 km. The measured mean in-contrail relative humidity with respect to ice was 89 ± 12%. Six contrails were observed in cloud free air, the others were embedded in thin cirrus clouds. The observed contrails exhibited a mean ice water content of 2 mg m?3 and had a mean number concentration of 117 cm?3 and effective radius of 2.9 ?m assuming asphericle particles with an aspect ratio of 0.5. Probability density functions of the extinction, with a mean (median) of 1.2 (0.7) km?1, and of the optical depth ?, with a mean (median) of 0.27 (0.13), are derived from the in situ measurements and are likely representative for young contrails from the present-day commercial aircraft fleet at observation conditions. Radiative transfer estimates using the in-situ measured contrail optical depth lead to a year-2005 estimate of line-shaped contrail radiative forcing of 15.9 mWm?2 with an uncertainty range of 11.1–47.7 mWm?2 READ PAPER
Financial Times – Taiwanese prosecutors have indicted former president Lee Teng-hui, the state's first democratically elected leader, on corruption charges. Mr Lee is accused of embezzling US$7.8m in government funds during his tenure as president in the 1990s, and faces possible life imprisonment if convicted. His top economic adviser, Liu Tai-ying, was also indicted. Lawyers for both men were expected to comment later on Thursday. Read Article
Washington Post – President Barack Obama on Wednesday dismissed the congressional criticism of his decision to wage war against Libya as political and argued that any sign of support from Washington for strongman Moammar Gadhafi makes no sense. Pushing back against Republicans and Democrats, Obama defended his decision to order U.S. military action more than three months ago and insisted he had not violated the 1973 War Powers Resolution, which requires congressional authorization within 60 days of the first military strikes.

BBC – The proposal – for the period 2014 to 2020 – comes despite calls from some EU member states for a budget freeze. The commission is also looking to review budget rebates that some member states get – most notably the UK. Read article
BBC – Mr Lee is accused of taking the money from a secret diplomatic fund during his 1988-2000 presidency. Prosecutors say the 88-year-old took money from the National Security Bureau fund to set up a private think tank, of which he became honorary president. Read article
Reuters - The report estimates between 224,475 and 257,655 have been killed in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan, though those numbers give a false sense of precision. There are many sources of data on civilian deaths, most with different results. The civilian death toll in Iraq — 125,000 — and the number of Saddam's security forces killed in invasion — 10,000 — are loose estimates. The U.S. military does not publish a thorough accounting. "We don't do body counts," Tommy Franks, the U.S. commander in Iraq, famously said after the fall of Saddam in 2003. In Afghanistan, the civilian death count ranges from 11,700 to 13,900. For Pakistan, where there is little access to the battlefield and the United States fights mostly through aerial drone attacks, the study found it impossible to distinguish between civilian and insurgent deaths.

Reuters – The United States would immediately have its top-notch credit rating slashed to "selective default" if it misses a debt payment on August 4, Standard & Poor's managing director John Chambers told Reuters. Chambers, who is also the chairman of S&P's sovereign ratings committee, told Reuters on Tuesday that U.S. Treasury bills maturing on August 4 would be rated 'D' if the government fails to honor them.

Guardian – Bahrain's king has ordered an independent fact-finding mission to establish whether protesters' human rights were abused during a violent crackdown on anti-government unrest in the Gulf kingdom. During a televised speech, King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa – who said he had consulted with the UN high commissioner for Human Rights on establishing the committee – said he was committed to reform and the respect for human rights, but blamed protesters for pushing the country into a "state of chaos" with street marches earlier in the year.

The City of Galax has begun looking at possible funding opportunities to allow Vaughan-Bassett Furniture Co. to expand its facility at 300 E. Grayson St., City Manager Keith Barker announced during last month's city council meeting, but this would require abandoning a portion of Railroad Avenue and Depot Street, between East Grayson and East Oldtown streets, and relocating utilities.
Vaughan-Bassett representatives said they plan to expand to make the plant more efficient, which would allow the company to maintain existing jobs.
Given the time of year the photo was taken, it might be tempting to think of the two shining dots pictured in the night sky as Santa's sleigh and the Star of Bethlehem.
But instead of holiday sentimentality, think man-made and high tech to explain the temporary brightness in the firmament on Nov. 25, 2009.
Amateur astronomer J.D. Sexton of Pipers Gap captured an image of these lights while showing his grandson — perhaps the next generation of skywatcher — the galaxies.
There are a lot of folks who will be glad to see 2009 in the rearview mirror.
A lot can happen in 3,650 days. And a lot did. More than I realized when I first began putting this piece together.
GALAX -- Grayson County overcame a 16-point deficit in the final 12 minutes Friday and escaped with a 69-64 win over Galax in a key Mountain Empire District game.
HILLSVILLE ee* Police believe the objective of an armed robber who hit the CVS pharmacy in Hillsville Saturday was to steal prescription drugs to sell.
HILLSVILLE — Carroll County worked to extend its run of landing federal stimulus funds for development efforts at its organizational meeting Monday.
Carroll County, the Public Service Authority in particular, has proven successful in receiving millions of dollars for "shovel-ready" water and sewer infrastructure projects.
The latest effort involves seeking Recovery Zone Economic Development Bonds and Recovery Zone Facility Bonds, a subject broached at the county meeting where the county board of supervisors elected its chairman and vice chairman.
RICHMOND — As state legislators prepare for the 2010 General Assembly, a local delegate has once again renewed his commitment to overturn an administrative order requiring Virginia State Police chaplains to deliver non-denominational prayers at official events.
Delegate Bill Carrico (R-Grayson), a retired state trooper, has introduced House Bill No. 9 for the upcoming General Assembly, which is set to begin Jan. 13 — an identical bill to the one seen in the Senate's court committee that died by one vote last year.
LNS bank robber
Richard Donald Hawes' fifth bank robbery worked out no better than the first four.
In August, he'd approached a teller at Grayson National Bank in Hillsville. Wearing overalls, gloves, sunglasses and a ball cap, and with a bandanna pulled up over his face, Hawes held out a plastic bag and said, "No dye packs, no dye packs," Assistant U.S. Attorney Jake Jacobsen said.
But the teller didn't listen.
HILLSVILLE -- Grayson County has averaged nearly 80 points per game over its last seven outings, mostly by forcing the tempo and beating defenses down the floor. Wednesday, the Blue Devils showed they didn't have to run all night to put up a chunk of points.
Grayson County was deadly from 3-point range and shot 56 percent from the floor overall, pulling away in the second half to deal Carroll County an 89-66 nondistrict defeat.

The event takes place, rain or shine, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sept. 6 in this borough divided by the Susquehanna Trail. Visitors will find flea-market items, crafts, antiques, lots of entertainment and good food.
Although vendor space at this popular event fills up fast, there might still be a few left if you want to rent one.
To do so, call 235-1942.
H.O.P.E.'s first Take a Swing at Cancer Golf Classic Tournament was so successful last year that the New Freedom-based nonprofit group is planning to do it again this year.
The event will take place Sept. 17 at the Royal Manchester Golf Links, 5700 Broad St., Mount Wolf. Cost is $80 per person, which includes a round of golf, New York strip dinner and prize.
Proceeds benefit H.O.P.E., a free cancer support network serving cancer patients and their families in York County and Northern Maryland. Since its inception in 1994, the group has assisted hundreds of families dealing with the diagnoses of cancer. But it cannot do this without the support of the community.
To register for the golf outing, call the H.O.P.E. office at 227-2824.
A benefit fund has been established to help Peach Bottom Township resident Paul Shelley, who was critically injured in June in a motorcycle accident in New Jersey that killed his passenger, Nicole Widener.
Money is needed to help Shelley pay for uncovered medical bills and modifications to his home so he can live independently.
To donate, make checks payable to the Paul Shelley Benefit Fund and send them to Christa Shelley Craig, 746 Mitchell Road, Airville 17302. The fund is with PNC Bank's Whiteford, Md., branch.
The county's legislative delegation will honor Vietnam vets Oct. 7 at the York Expo Center.

Tolerant of disease and weather elements, this sweet corn yields a generous harvest of gold and white bi-color ears. You won't believe how tender, sweet and juicy this variety is. Its unrivaled flavor is matched by its shelf life--your corn will stay fresh in its husk for up to three weeks of refrigeration.
Gotta Have It hybrid sweet corn does well in zones 3 to 9 and is ready to harvest about 78 days after planting. No staking is needed - just trim off any ears that form at the base of the plant. These sturdy plants grow to about 7-1/2 feet tall. Slow to become starchy, this cultivar offers an exceptionally long harvest.
Eating fresh, delicious corn is a summer tradition. Try your hybrid sweet corn roasted, boiled, or grilled on the cob, or shave the kernels to add them to soups, casseroles and side dishes. This scrumptiously sweet delight can be enjoyed in the cold winter months, too. Simply place the whole, un-shucked corn in a plastic bag and store it in your freezer. Make this tasty delight a mainstay in your garden and your guests will exclaim "I gotta have it!"

Benedict XVI's Key Messages This Week
June 21-27, 2008
In the Eucharist we discover that we are infinitely loved: "Do not forget that the Sunday Eucharist is a loving encounter with the Lord that we cannot do without. When you recognize him 'at the breaking of bread,' like the disciples at Emmaus, you will become his companions. He will help you to grow and to give the best of yourselves. Remember that in the bread of the Eucharist, Christ is really, totally and substantially present. It is therefore in the mystery of the Eucharist, at Mass and during silent adoration before the Blessed Sacrament of the altar, that you will meet him in a privileged way. By opening your very being and your whole life under the gaze of Christ, you will not be crushed – quite the contrary: you will discover that you are infinitely loved. You will receive the power that you need in order to build your lives and to make the choices that present themselves to you every day. […] Before the Lord, in the silence of your hearts, some of you may feel called to follow him in a more radical way in the priesthood or the consecrated life. Do not be afraid to listen to this call and to respond with joy. As I said at the inauguration of my pontificate, God takes nothing away from those who give themselves to him. On the contrary, he gives them everything. He comes to draw out the best that is in each one of us, so that our lives can truly flourish." (Video message for youth who attended the 49th International Eucharistic Congress in Quebec)
All members of the Church must go deeper in the mystery of faith that is the Eucharist: "'The Mystery of Faith': this we proclaim at every Mass. I would like everyone to make a commitment to study this great mystery, especially by revisiting and exploring, individually and in groups, the Council's text on the liturgy, 'Sacrosanctum Concilium,' so as to bear witness courageously to the mystery. […] Every sentence, every gesture has its own meaning and conceals a mystery. I sincerely hope that this Congress will serve as an appeal to all the faithful to make a similar commitment to a renewal of Eucharistic catechesis, so that they themselves will gain a genuine Eucharistic awareness and will in turn teach children and young people to recognize the central mystery of faith and build their lives around it. I urge priests especially to give due honor to the Eucharistic rite, and I ask all the faithful to respect the role of each individual, both priest and lay, in the Eucharistic action. The liturgy does not belong to us: it is the Church's treasure." (Homily delivered via satellite for the closing Mass of the 49th International Eucharistic Congress in Quebec, Sunday, June 22)
Believers are unafraid because of faith in God's lordship: "In the face of the ample and diversified panorama of human fears, the word of God is clear: He who 'fears' the Lord is 'not afraid.' The fear of God, which the Scriptures define as the 'beginning of true wisdom,' coincides with faith in God, with the sacred respect for his authority over life and the world. Being 'without the fear of God' is equivalent to putting ourselves in his place, feeling ourselves to be masters of good and evil, of life and death. But he who fears God feels interiorly the security of a child in the arms of his mother (cf. Psalm 130:2): He who fears God is calm even in the midst of storms, because God, as Jesus has revealed to us, is a Father who is full of mercy and goodness. He who loves God is not afraid: 'In love there is no fear,' writes the Apostle John. 'Perfect love,' he goes on, 'casts out fear because fear has to do with punishment and whoever is afraid is not perfected in love' (1 John 4:18). The believer, therefore, is not afraid of anything, because he knows that he is in the hands of God, he knows that evil is irrational and does not have the last word, and that Christ alone is the Lord of the world and life, the Incarnate Word of God, he knows that Christ loved us to the point of sacrificing himself, dying on the cross for our salvation." (Address before praying the midday Angelus, Sunday, June 22)
Christ and his paschal mystery give the central perspective to interpret the Scriptures: "It is only Christ, the eternal Word of the living God, who through the Holy Spirit, can open our minds to understand the Scriptures. I warmly encourage you therefore not only to continue to make known the profound relevance of the Scriptures to the contemporary experience of Catholics and particularly to the younger generations, but also to lead them to interpret them from the central perspective of Christ and his paschal mystery. All Christians are called to imitate the openness of Mary who received the Word of God 'in her heart and in her body and gave Life to the world.' May the peoples of Africa receive this word as the life-giving source of reconciliation and justice, and especially of the true peace that comes only from the risen Lord." (Letter to the Catholic Biblical Federation plenary assembly in Tanzania, Monday, June 23)
True freedom is the ability to say "yes" to God and conform one's will to God's: "[St. Maximus the Confessor] demonstrates that man finds his unity, the integration of himself, his totality not in himself, but in surpassing himself, by coming out of himself. Thus, also in Christ, man, coming out of himself, finds in God, in the Son of God, himself. Adam – and Adam is us – thought that 'no' was the apex of liberty; that only he who can say 'no' is truly free; that to truly realize his liberty, man must say 'no' to God. Only in this way, he thinks, he is finally himself; he has arrived at the summit of liberty. This tendency was also present in Christ's human nature, but he overcame it, because Jesus saw that 'no' is not the greatest liberty. The greatest liberty is to say 'yes,' to conform with the will of God. Only in saying 'yes' does man really become himself. Transferring one's will to the divine will, that is how a true man is born. That is how we are redeemed." (Catechesis during the general audience, Wednesday, June 25)
The Church's charity shows the merciful face of God: "Like the proclamation of the word and the celebration of the sacraments, the service of charity is an essential part of the mission of the Church. I know well how poverty, which affects so many of your fellow-countrymen, afflicts you. […] As ministers of the Good Shepherd, you have displayed, in word and deed, an intense endeavor to assist the needy. Continue to show in your ministry the merciful face of God, fostering in all your diocesan communities and parishes an extensive and detailed service of charity, which will reach in a special way the sick, the elderly and the imprisoned." (Address to the bishops of Honduras, Thursday, June 26)
The lay faithful are called to participate in the Church's evangelizing mission: "Work ceaselessly so that the faithful will be increasingly aware of the fact that, in virtue of baptism and confirmation, they are called to live the fullness of charity by participating in the very salvific mission of the Church. Through the testimony of their Christian life, they can carry to all sectors of society the light of Christ's message, attracting to the ecclesial community those whose faith has been weakened. Therefore, the lay faithful need to intensify their relationship with God and acquire a solid formation, especially in regard to the social doctrine of the Church. Thus, as leaven in the dough, they will be able to fulfill their mission to transform society according to the will of God." (Address to the bishops of Honduras, Thursday, June 26)
There is no true peace without justice and respect for the liberty of every individual: "I invite all authorities and men of good will, in particular on the beloved African continent, to be ever more committed to a peaceful, fraternal and solidaristic world. I make an appeal today for an ever more prophetic courage, keeping in mind that peace and justice advance together and that all this must be made concrete through respect for legality in all realms. Without justice, without struggling against all forms of corruption, without respect for the rule of law, it is impossible to build true peace. And without these conditions, it will be hard for citizens to trust their leaders; moreover, without respect for the liberty of every individual, there can be no peace. […] It is opportune that the country's inhabitants be the first beneficiaries of the product of the nation's natural resources and do everything possible for a better protection of the planet, leaving to future generations a truly habitable earth, able to feed its inhabitants. According to her tradition, under forms appropriate to her, the Church is ready to collaborate and offer her support to all persons whose main concern is to establish a society that respects the most elementary rights of man and to build a society for man." (Audience with the new Gabonese representative to the Holy See, Thursday, June 26)
The Holy Father hopes to see the bishops of mainland China in Rome: "I hope and pray to the Lord that the day will soon come when your brother bishops from mainland China come to Rome on pilgrimage to the tombs of the Apostles Peter and Paul, as a sign of communion with the Successor of Peter and the Universal Church. I willingly avail myself of the occasion to send to the Catholic community of China and to all the people of that vast country the assurance of my prayers and my affection. […] We must never forget that Christ is also for China a teacher, pastor and loving redeemer. The Church must never allow this good news to remain unspoken." (Address to the bishops of Hong Kong and Macao, Friday, June 27)
Some activities of the Holy Father
Saturday, June 21: Pope Benedict sent a video message to the young people present at the 49th International Eucharistic Congress in Quebec.

Friday, June 27: Pope Benedict received bishops from Hong Kong and Macao, who were in Rome their five-yearly visit to the Vatican.
A prayer for the Holy Father
Christ Jesus, King and Lord of the Church, in your presence I renew my unconditional loyalty to your Vicar on earth, the Pope. In him you have chosen to show us the safe and sure path that we must follow in the midst of confusion, uneasiness, and unrest. I firmly believe that through him you govern, teach, and sanctify us; with him as our shepherd, we form the true Church: one, holy, catholic, and apostolic. Grant me the grace to love, live, and spread faithfully our Holy Father's teachings. Watch over his life, enlighten his mind, strengthen his spirit, defend him from calumny and evil. Calm the erosive winds of infidelity and disobedience. Hear our prayer and keep your Church united around him, firm in its belief and action, that it may truly be the instrument of your redemption. Amen.

Teen failed to stop car after crash
Posted: June 09, 2012|
A motorist who failed to stop after a minor accident and did not report it to police was too embarrassed to do so because he was driving his mother's car.
Brett Fuller (19), of Dartford Road, Aylestone, Leicester, pleaded guilty at Leicester Magistrates' Court to both offences committed in Eastern Boulevard, Leicester, on November 27.
He was fined £160 with £85 costs and a £15 standard victims of crime surcharge.
His licence was endorsed with five penalty points.
The court heard the accident happened near a junction when a vehicle just in front of Fuller stopped and a collision took place, causing a small bumper scratch.
When interviewed, Fuller said he had borrowed his mum's car with permission and had just lost concentration for a split-second before hitting the vehicle in front.
Bal Singh, representing him, said "He panicked, thought 'Oh, no – I've hit my mum's car – I'm in trouble'."

Xen-based Emulab virtual nodes
Getting started
Emulab vnodes based on Xen virtual machines is still under development but is now generally usable by all users. Since Xen vnode support is still under development, expect these instructions to be subject to sudden and radical change!
The executive summary is that you specify a Xen vnode by setting a node in your topology to be type pcvm (or pcvm3000, etc) and then choosing the correct OSID for the vnode and host. Each vnode will have a minimum 256MB of RAM and a 6GB virtual disk. These are arbitrary constants that can be overridden to some degree; see below. Shared filesystems are available in the vnodes. Vnodes can be connected with shaped virtual links, though expect lower fidelity emulations than with physical links. Each vnode has a control net connection, but they have unroutable IP addresses so you cannot communicate to/from vnodes and the outside (of Emulab) world.
Before going further, you should look through the description of Emulab's OpenVZ virtual nodes since many (most) of the concepts and details are very similar and apply directly to XEN based virtual nodes. Go ahead, I'll wait here till you come back ...
Here is an example NS file for a three node, two link topology (node0 <=> node2 <=> node1):
set ns [new Simulator] source tb_compat.tcl # Nodes set node0 [$ns node] set node1 [$ns node] set node2 [$ns node] tb-set-node-os $node0 XEN-STD tb-set-node-os $node1 XEN-STD tb-set-node-os $node2 XEN-STD tb-set-hardware $node0 pcvm tb-set-hardware $node1 pcvm tb-set-hardware $node2 pcvm tb-set-node-failure-action $node0 "nonfatal" tb-set-node-failure-action $node1 "nonfatal" tb-set-node-failure-action $node2 "nonfatal" tb-set-node-memory-size $node0 512 tb-set-node-memory-size $node1 512 tb-set-node-memory-size $node2 512 # Links set link0 [$ns duplex-link $node0 $node2 100000.0kb 0.0ms DropTail] set link1 [$ns duplex-link $node1 $node2 100000.0kb 0.0ms DropTail] $ns rtproto Static $ns run
Guest OSs
When selecting an OSID to use for your guest OS, the simplest choice is XEN-STD, which maps to the most recent version supported by Emulab (see the details section below). You may also use one of a select number of our standard images (that run on bare metal). The requirement is that the kernel be compiled with XEN PV support. As of this time, these standard images may be used:
- UBUNTU12-64-STD: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, 64 bit. 3.2.46 kernel.
- UBUNTU11-64-STD: Ubuntu 11, 64 bit.
- FEDORA15-STD: Fedora 15.
- FBSD82-STD: FreeBSD 8.2.
- FBSD91-STD: FreeBSD 9.1.
All of these images are available on the Utah Emulab, but should also run on whatever Emulab you are using; ask your local administrator to import images you require from Utah's download directory.
Controlling memory
As mentioned above, you can control the amount of memory each guest receives:
tb-set-node-memory-size $node0 512
The units is always MB, and the resource mapper will tell you if you asked for too much or you have exhausted the amount on memory available on the node. This is especially important on Emulab's shared nodes, where you are competing with other experiments for resources on the same physical host.
Controlling disk space
Each XEN guest is given enough disk space to hold the requested image. Most Emulab images are built within a 6GB partition, where about 1/2 of the disk space is used by the operating system files. If the remaining space is not enough for your needs, you can request additional disk space with the following NS statement:
$mynode add-attribute XEN_EXTRAFS 5
The units is always GB, and at this time we enforce a hard limit of 10GB. As with Emulab physical nodes, the extra disk space will appear in the fourth slice of your guest's disk. You can turn this extra space into a useable file system by logging into your guest and doing:
mynode> sudo mkdir /dirname mynode> sudo /usr/local/etc/emulab/mkextrafs.pl /dirname
Creating a custom image
Emulab allows you to create a Custom OS Image of a virtual node, much like you are able to create a custom image to run on a physical node. Your custom image is saved and loaded in much the same way as described for physical nodes in the tutorial.
The difference is in how you create the image after you have setup your virtual node the way you want it. Once you are ready, go to the Show Experiment page for your experiment, and click on the node you want to save. One of the menu options is "Create a Disk Image". Click on that link and follow the instructions. If you are customizing one of the Emulab provided images for the first time, you will need to complete the form and click submit. If you updating your own image, then you just need to click on the confirmation button.
For all practical concerns, a disk image created from a XEN node may also be run on a bare metal node. You might need to edit the image descriptor in the web interface, to add the required node types, but in general images are interchangeable. You may also click on the whole disk image on the web form, which will create an image that includes your extra file system (see above).
Xen VMs current can only run a particular Ubuntu 12.04 Linux (3.2.46 kernel). The support is more general than that, but this is what we have now. Ideally, you would be able to load any Emulab OS image in a VM and have it Just Work, but that is harder than it might sound. The way you get Xen-based VMs as opposed to OpenVZ is via the OSID specified. So don't try to get all creative with the tb-set-node-os lines in the example--just do what we say.
Each Xen-based vnode will have an 6GB virtual disk (implemented as an LVM shadow volume on the physical host). Each VM is given a minimum of 256MB of memory, until memory is exhausted. The Emulab resource mapper will enforce this based on the amount of physical memory the node has, and the amount of memory you want for each VM.
Link shaping of virtual links is done using tc running in dom0, which is a variant of Emulab's end node shaping. Note that you cannot dynamically modify link shaping parameters.
Controlling Xen VM's
If you are using Emulab's shared nodes, you can ignore this section; users are not able to log into the physical host (dom0).
When dom0 has booted up you can ssh directly to it and use either Emulab commands or Xen commands to control the domU's. These need to be run with root priveleges (use sudo). Some helpful Emulab commands:
# Halt all vnodes /usr/local/etc/emulab/bootvnodes -h # Boot all vnodes /usr/local/etc/emulab/bootvnodes -b # Kill all vnodes (destroy virtual disks after halting) /usr/local/etc/emulab/bootvnodes -k
Some helpful Xen commands:
# Start a domU /usr/sbin/xm create <some-config-file> # Halt a vm (clean shutdown) /usr/sbin/xm shutdown <vm name> # Kill a vm (unclean shutdown) /usr/sbin/xm destroy <vm name> # List all vm's /usr/sbin/xm list # Connect to the console of a vm /usr/sbin/xm console <vm name>
Modifying Xen VM instances
Xen VM's use a configuration file to specify various attributes about their setup. Once dom0 has booted you can modify these configuration files as you like. The configuration files live in /var/emulab/vms/<vm-name>/xm.conf. Typical things to modify are the kernel and memory size. It is possible to modify the disk sizes as well but you have to use LVM commands directly and usually you have to create all the disks at once.
Any changes will not be persisted across reboots of dom0 (or use of the bootvnodes command above), so save your changes somewhere if you need them.
Windows on Xen
In theory, yes. In practice, not yet. Running Windows VMs will require machines with VTx technology, which we will soon have in the form of d710 machines.
No doubt.

You can take your choice of the 2 workshops:
Python For Security Professionals (Online) – Level 1 for $100
Python For Security Tool Development (Online) – Level 2 for $100
Short Descriptions:
Python For Security Professionals (Online) – Level 1
This is a beginner's functional programming course focused on programming concepts that can be used to accomplish common security tasks such as log parsing, password cracking, port scanning, vulnerability testing, web application security testing, malware analysis, and exploit development. There won't be a bunch of math, no CD collection databases, and no useless programming mumbo jumbo.
Each Week the students will learn a few basic programming concepts, and then use some sample code (skeleton scripts) to perform security tasks. The students will keep the skeleton scripts so that when they get back to work they'll have something that they can use a crib sheet to build scripts that can do other security tasks.
This class will run for the entire month of May on Mon/Wed from 7pm – 9pm EST.
Python For Security Tool Development (Online) – Level 2
This class takes what you learned in Python For Security Professionals to the next level. It's designed for people that want to modify existing security tools, and/or create their own. We will focus exclusively solving problems IT Security Professionals often face. We'll analyze several popular security tools, and modify them to work in situations they weren't designed for.
Finally you'll be required to develop a sophisticated analysis tool, and a sophisticated attack tool as part of the class. You'll get to choose what the primary functions of your tools are, and you'll be encouraged to release your tool as an open source project or modify your tool so that it becomes an integral component a class project that will be released as an open source project on github.
This class will run for the entire month of June on Mon/Wed from 7pm – 9pm EST.

Can you really get rid of cellulite — the bane of women everywhere?! Are there really so-called cellulite cures?
"Cottage cheese" thighs. "Orange-peel" skin. Call it what you want, cellulite is a beauty problem experienced by 85 to 98 percent of all women. What exactly is it? Cellulite is fat—fat cells bulge through cell walls into the skin's middle layer, where they pull on connective tissue to create an unattractive, dimpled skin surface most noticeable on thighs, derriere and upper arms.
So, can you get rid of it? New research offers solutions to treat cellulite that can at least lessen the appearance of the bumpy lumps, giving hope for a more appealing look, if not eliminating it completely.
The question is–how hard are you willing to fight it? If you're ready for the battle of the "bulge," start by committing to an exercise program. Walking, biking, swimming, yoga, and running all help reduce the amount of fat on your body. That is a start! (But if you even glance at the tabloids, you know even top models and athletes have cellulite, so don't get discouraged.)
Add foods to your diet that keep dermal cells, elastin and collagen in good condition. Cellulite expert Dr. Howard Murad, a board-certified dermatologist and associate clinical professor of dermatology at University of California, suggests increasing the amount of lecithin in your diet. That means adding foods such as eggs, spinach, cauliflower, and apples.
Also, add good protein sources such as lean meats, nuts and skimmed milk. This will increase the production of collagen and elastin. Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables to help fight and eliminate free-radicals which damage dermal cells. Oily fish provide essential fats that fight inflammation. A good diet is essential to lessen the appearance of cellulite, but adding healthy foods is only half of the equation. Plan to eliminate toxic elements such as smoking, alcohol, junk-food, soda, fat-producing foods such as sweets and empty carbohydrates such as doughnuts. You know, all the good stuff we really love!
Drink plenty of water to flush toxins.
Brush your skin daily with a natural plant fiber brush before bathing. It is a very healthy practice that stimulates the blood and lymph system, removes dead skin cells and encourages new cell growth.
Deep-tissue massage, cellulite creams and laser treatments also help, but should be considered part of the program listed above. There is no quick fix that will eliminate cellulite, but continued efforts will improve not only how you look, but how you feel.
Can you really get rid of cellulite? The jury is still out, but a healthy diet rich in antioxidants, and circulation-enhancing exercise is better than just wishing it away and hiding out all summer!
