Raytheon Aircraft last expected to receive full FAA certification of the super-midsize Hawker 4000 Horizon in February, nearly five years later than the originally estimated date of spring 2001. The FAA granted the aircraft provisional certification on Dec. 23, 2004. But February came and went without full, final certification. Raytheon Aircraft chairman and CEO James Schuster gave the latest update on the certification progress when the company released its first-quarter results in late April.
"We encountered a few bumps in the road over the last 60 days, but I'm happy to report that we are about done." He said that the aircraft had completed 135 hours of the 150-hour required function and reliability (F&R) testing. "The final 15 hours should be completed and all the paperwork into the hands of the FAA" in the first week of May, said Schuster, predicting that Raytheon should have "certification in hand as soon as the FAA completes its review. It's been a long haul, but we are just about there."
Schuster described the Horizon 4000 as a "real breakthrough airplane." It's only the second all-composite fuselage to come into the marketplace and only the second jet Raytheon Aircraft has designed," he said. "We are plowing new ground with this airplane in many respects. The F&R testing is a rigorous shakeout. We've run into minor technical issues that take a few days or in some cases a couple of weeks to get resolved." There's been nothing significant, Schuster claimed.
"It would take an hour to go through all of the changes that we have made in this company relative to staffing, organization and processes to make certain we don't have these problems in the future," Schuster explained. "The Horizon went into development long before these changes were in place."
Schuster maintains the aircraft's performance is meeting or exceeding expectations. He did not refer to the previously disclosed unexpected 600-pound increase in basic operating weight that has reduced the originally targeted range by about 100 nm. Raytheon Aircraft told AIN late last year it is working to find ways to restore that loss.
To date, Raytheon Aircraft has received orders for 74 Hawker 4000s (including 50 from NetJets). Before the latest delay in certification, the company said it planned to deliver 11 Hawker 4000s this year, 16 next year, 24 in 2008 and 30 per year thereafter.

I have a very frustrating issue where Silverstripe won't properly create a custom page type in a section within the CMS.
When I select the page type from the dropdown and click "Go", nothing happens. However, when I refresh the page has been created. This only happens with the custom page type - if I try and create a regular page under the section, it works absolutely fine. The section doesn't have an $allowed_children array defined, so I can create anything within it.
I would really really appreciate some help with this - it's driving me nuts!!!! Code for the extended page type as below:
class ProductDetail extends Page {
static $db = array(
'Code' => 'Text',
'Price' => 'Currency',
'PriceDescription' => 'Text'
static $has_one = array(
'Photo' => 'Image'
function getCMSFields() {
$fields = parent::getCMSFields();
$fields->addFieldToTab('Root.Content.Main', new TextField('Code'), 'Content');
$fields->addFieldToTab('Root.Content.Main', new CurrencyField('Price'), '');
$fields->addFieldToTab('Root.Content.Main', new TextField('PriceDescription'), '');
$fields->addFieldToTab("Root.Content.Photo", new ImageField('Photo'));
$fields->renameField("PriceDescription", "Price Description");
$fields->renameField("Content","Product Description");

Writer attempts to define the essence of democratic leadership in the modern world
Democratic leadership across the world is battling multiple crisis / Democratic leadership
Edukalife – Definition of democratic leadership
Concept of democratic leadership
Also whatisdemocracy.net answers the question: What is a democratic leader?
The word democracy derives from the Greek DEMOS: people and KRATOS: Government or authority, means Government or authority of the people. The main objective is to guide the thinking of each of the followers, democratic leadership, group, people, to build a government.
There seems to be a great confusion what the word Democracy means. In spite of the fact that at least in some parts of the world one can hear it from the media every day.
Democracy by definition means the government by people. That means that all the people should be able to have their say in one way another in everything that affects their lives. Dictionaries usually say that this right can either be exercised directly (by every member of a community having the possibility to enter personally, without mediators, his position on a particular issue into the decision making process – modern technology is able to provide this possibility for increasingly larger and larger communities), or through representatives (members of legislative bodies). This second arrangement is then called Representative Democracy.
Representative democracy would be fine if the representatives would really make all their decisions only after consulting their constituencies. In the least, after having a clear idea about the views of their constituents on a particular issue, and trying to accommodate these views as best as possible (or postpone the decisions until an overwhelming majority of the constituents would be happy with them).
Unfortunately, a vast majority of countries that call themselves Representative Democracies are not true democracies according to the above definition. Most of them are actually just Elected Dictatorships. People can vote usually only once every four or five years. They do not vote on any issues. They just elect their so called representatives who then until the next elections have no obligations by law and little incentives to base their decisions on individual issues on the wishes on their electorate. They hardly ever bother to consult them on their stands on various issues. Therefore, legislative bodies composed of such "representatives" act in a very dictatorial manner between the elections. The only country that is quite close to the definition of Democracy is Switzerland (more or less since 1291).
Any governmental system is fine if the people subject to this system are happy with it. Perhaps, in most of the above described "Elected Dictatorships," such a system of government is still the best one under the current circumstances.
What do you think? Are you happy with is? Isn't it time to do better? It all should depend on you, the citizens – which system you prefer. Are you willing to give some of your free time to be interested in public matters, and to participate in decision making?
We would like to hear from the politicians of the so called "Representative Democracies" how in their view their activities satisfy the definition of Democracy.
We would like to discuss the interesting question of the Leadership. What is the role of leaders in a true Democracy?
We would like to contribute to the clarification of the meaning of the word Democracy.
You are invited to participate.
Miroslav Kolar,
August 17, 2005
Politicians should be your humble servants, not your all-powerful masters.

The last year has been pretty bad for RIM because they've seen a reduction in sales and a server crash which upset many of there customers. However, one good piece of news emerging from the company is that the Blackberry App World has now seen over 3 billion downloads.
This information comes thanks to an interview given by Blackberry CEO Thorsten Heins with the Canadian newspaper The Globe and Mail. The figure looks insignificant compared to the 15 billion downloads seen on Google Play or the 20 billion apps downloaded from Apple's App Store, but its still a step forward for RIM.
RIM are due to launch their next version of the Blackberry operating system at the start of next year, which will lead to some fragmentation on the Blackberry App World.
Sadly, current Blackberry 7 smartphones won't be able to be upgraded to the new Blackberry 10 platform. However, RIM's CEO also confirmed that the company will be continuing to support Blackberry 7 devices, which is at least some consolation to owners of current Blackberry smartphones.
3G expects Blackberry 10 smartphones to be unveiled very soon and we'll bring you all the latest leaks and news once we get it !

Four new education programs offered at Coastal
"These new programs were developed to address the professional education needs of our students and to respond to the needs of our community and state," said Gilbert Hunt, dean of Coastal's College of Education.
The middle grades program prepares teachers specifically for the unique demands of educating middle school-age students. Coastal is one of the first institutions in the state to offer the middle grades education program. Students in middle schools are typically between the ages of 11 to 14 and are in fifth- through eighth-grade.
The special education program prepares K-12 teachers to teach learning disabled students. The program includes the study of diagnostic, instructional and assessment skills. The program also addresses related issues of the learning disabled student and the student's family as well as study of teacher collaboration and current trends in the field. Learning disabilities are identified as difficulties in acquiring listening, speaking, reading, writing, reasoning or mathematical abilities. Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (AD/HD) is also addressed.
The MAT provides an additional avenue of entry into the teaching profession for teaching candidates within the fields of art, English, foreign languages, mathematics, music, social studies and science. The program allows students to pursue teacher certification by entering the profession through a graduate-level training program.
The M.Ed. program prepares students for careers in school settings as specialists, instructors, coordinators or classroom teachers skilled in technology applications. State-of-the-art course work and field experiences prepare candidates to design, develop and manage instructional systems and products.

Donating Cupcakes For A Race...advice Needed On The Best Way To Package Them.
Decorating By stephdover4 Updated 13 Feb 2013 , 1:33am by stephdover4
I am donating cupcakes for the runners of "Race for RARE 5k/10 Mile Trail Race" here in my town end of this month. These will be for the runners to take as they are leaving. I want to package them so that the effort won't be wasted.
What do you suggest is the best way to package them. I saw somewhere that putting them in the 9 oz clear solo cups ( http://www.dollartree.com/Solo-Clear-Plastic-9-oz-Cups-12-ct-Sleeves/p298716/index.pro ) then place them in treat bags is a good way. Some say just put them in the treat bags; what do you think?
leaving after the race is over you mean?? whatever is the easiest to carry i think--either of the ways you suggested--but i think without the cup is prettier and the cup might throw them off as to what's in there maybe
if it's 'leaving' as in out on the race then again the easiest packaging which would probably be just a plastic wrap wrapper because they can 'eat and run'--it can be squeezed out of a hole in the wrapper--all one handed--if it's a tied wrapper then it's too hard to deal with & run
that's how the runners & cyclists in my family do it
gawd, no, don't just put them in a treat bag! They will be mushed to bits. Have you seen runners after a race? They are all panting and sweating, and careless, in most cases. I have seen them fling themselves all over, I can see grabbing the cupcake, and fling it into the car, plopping in, and promptly mash it.
And, when I run and it feels like my lungs are filled with jagged ice, and my legs feel like jelly, and my arms are light feeling and my heart is pumping in my face, the last damn thing I want is a cupcake, no offense. I glass of water or Gatorade is more like it. Then maybe some sherbet. A shower and a nap comes to mind, as well...no cupcakes.
And I bet a lot of these runners are tree hugging, vegans, and don't eat carbs. I have been around the type quite a bit. You go out with them and they get a salad with no dressing, then pull some homemade olive oil and garlic dressing stuff out of their purses, because "commercial dressing is pure sugar!" Their idea of dessert is berries mixed with granola. (And they just about poop themselves when you get a cheeseburger and fries :-D )
anna, you certainly make the point
and even though it clearly says c-u-p-c-a-k-e i thought m-u-f-f-i-n because yeah runners are especially weird
i did a cake for a triathlon group here--i used the darkest chocolate and i can't even remember what all i did but i tried real hard to make it 'werid runner friendly' a lot of them are painfully careful eaters
anna's right--oats and nuts and twigs--they love it! and go easy on the oat & nut part
AEvery race ice ever run in had bagels, muffins, granola bars, donuts, candy, burgers, beer, and it all gets devoured. Your cupcakes will get eaten. The clear solo cup and treat bag tied with a pretty ribbon is adorable. One of the moms at my son's school did cupcakes like this for a bake sale and they were a big hit. She tied a fork on the bag too, but I think most ppl eat cupcakes with their fingers.

anna's right--oats and nuts and twigs--they love it! and go easy on the oat & nut part
AA good friend of mine is a runner and I ran with her a few years ago. She eats tofurkey instead of turkey, and eats a huge family size bowl of dry lettuce and spinach with alfalfa sprouts. When we go out together, we get a coffee!
I think it's extremely generous of you to donate cupcakes for this event. Make a lot, though -- cupcakes are a nice treat after a nice run :) I bet most of them will get eaten on the spot. For those that take them home, I think the plastic cup/cello bag is the perfect packaging.
(I was trying to attach a pic of me, my husband and friends after a 10k enjoying some cupcakes but my computer froze up each time)
I used the see-through plastic cup with lid and it worked beautifully! I bought the 9oz short cups with their flat lids (Sam's and Costco didn't have the right ones so I had to go to a restaurant supply store). Put the flat lid down and put the cupcake on it. Then, take the cup and put it over the top and lock it into place. It was great! I put a sticker with my business name and contact info on each cup. There was practically no mess at all and I didn't need to put it into any plastic baggy. SO convenient! I hope that helps!
Someone else on CC posted this picture:
I hope that helps!
That is a great idea SaltCakeCity
Thank you for all the replies! I was asked to donate the cupcakes by the people who are putting it on, its a fundraiser so there will be serious runners as well as inexperienced ones. I don't think there will be a problem with them being eaten...LOL!! I am also doing some muffins and other things as well. Some will take them home I'm sure and others will eat them on the spot as well as pass altogether. I just want to be sure they aren't smashed if taken home. Sounds like the cup with the lid is the best option!! Didn't even think of lids Salt Cake City!! Thank you all!!

Congratulations to Ivanka Trump and her husband Jared Kushner who are expecting their second child! The couple already have 21-month-old Arabella.
The Celebrity Apprentice judge tweeted, "Jared and I are so excited that Arabella will become a big sister this fall. Thanks for all your good wishes!"
In an interview with Redbook the 31-year-old spoke her thoughts on going to work.
She said, "Incidentally, I hate the expression 'working mom,' because when I'm with Arabella on the weekends, I'm much more exhausted on Monday morning than I am on Friday night! I think the expression 'working' versus 'non-working' implies that a mother who stays home doesn't work. It's far more difficult than anything I do in the office."
Trump has been married to Kushner – the owner of the New York Observer – since 2009.

Sarah Palin and Sean Hannity Discuss Looming Republican Victory in PA-12
I do loves me some wingnut pundit fail.
HANNITY: All right. The race that I am most interested in tonight, and we may get the results maybe sometime this hour and if we do, I'm very interested in this, and that is the Pennsylvania 12 race.
And here you have John Murtha's old seat he held for all these years. 2-1 Democrat to Republican registration in the district. It's literally neck-and-neck going into this race. If Burns pulls this off tonight what would that say to you?
PALIN: I think Burns will pull this off tonight. And just like the "Randslide" that we were just talking about, you're going to see Burns having this representation of a smaller, smarter government, getting the economy back on the right track with some limited overreach of the government. That's what Burns stands for. […] We need someone like Tim Burns in there. And you're going to see that via vote today with the electorate.
Only the Quitter can so effortlessly produce phrases like "via vote today with the electorate." That's why she gets the big bucks.
Meanwhile, back on Planet Earth.
Republican Tim Burns has conceded to Democrat Mark Critz in the special election to fill the late Jack Murtha's (D) congressional seat in Pennsylvania. […] And as we pointed out in First Read this morning, this GOP loss — in this environment — raises REAL questions about the Republican Party's ability to take back in the House in November.
Why? If the GOP couldn't win here — the only congressional seat that John Kerry won in '04 but Obama lost in '08 — it's not going to have an easy time netting the 40 House seats in November it needs to retake the House.
With Critz's apparent victory, this becomes the SEVENTH-straight competitive special House contest that Democrats have won and the GOP has lost since 2008.
It must be so comforting to watch Faux if you're a wingnut. No doubt, this unfortunate little episode won't be discussed today — even though this was the race Hannity was "most interested in." It'll be scrubbed away by some Winston Smith-type figure at Faux, and all will be comfortably plus plus good for the GOP again.

Why Perez Hilton Should Not Be On Nickelodeon
Perez Hilton is on the shortlist of awful human beings that I don't want exposed to my future children. So why, oh why would the kids' channel Nickelodeon invite the self-proclaimed Queen of All Media to guest star on one of its shows? Perez announced that on Friday, August 27th, at 8 p.m., he'll have a cameo on "Victorious," the channel's highest rated new TV show starring teen actress Victoria Justice. Excellent idea! Let's expose all the tweens to the most sexist, nastiest gossip blogger out there and make him look "cool." Nevermind that he posted upskirt pics of Miley Cyrus' crotch (who is a goddess for people who buy their jewelry at Claire's), calls anyone he doesn't like a slut, and Photoshops jizz and penises coming out of people's mouths — he's gonna be on Nickelodeon? I'm not normally the type of person to wring my hands and say, "Oh noes! Think of the children!" when it comes to sex and drugs and stuff. But that d-bag has no business around 11-year-olds. The last person a bunch of middle schoolers (and soon-to-be middle schoolers) should be looking up to is someone whose behavior is consistently misogynist and cruel. I know it's just a cameo, but still … "Ugh."

Alexandria ends fiscal year with nearly $10m surplus
While other places are battling budget shortfalls, the City of Alexandria will end the fiscal year with almost $10 million in surplus. The acting city manager wants to use that money to invest in emergency response.
Acting City Manager Bruce Johnson told the city council reported that Alexandria closed out FY 2011 on June 30 with an operating surplus of $9.8 million, just under 2 percent of the total operating budget.
The unexpected surplus comes from $5.57 million in savings and $4.26 million in revenues that were higher than anticipated, the city said.
Johnson recommended the city council set aside $6.7 million to protect against economic uncertainty and future revenue shortfalls. He said the remaining one-third could be used to pay for emergency response to the recent earthquake, hurricane, and flooding; save for future emergencies; and improve equipment and training for first responders.

Katie Waissel: I'm still waiting for Cheryl Cole to call
Katie Waissel has revealed that she hasn't spoken to X Factor mentor
Cheryl Cole since the end of the show.
The 24-year-old wannabe said she'd love a 'girly chat' with the Girls Aloud singer but was still waiting for her call.
She told Now magazine: 'I'd love to catch up with Cheryl over a glass of wine and have a girly chat, it would be fun.'
In a previous interview, Waissel criticised Cole for putting her own 'problems' ahead of her mentoring duties.
She accused Cole of looking after herself first, saying the Girls Aloud star 'had her own problems'.
'Cheryl and I didn't have long chats – she would just advise me not to read the papers and say she had had a hard time too,' the 24-year-old told Grazia magazine.
'I don't have her mobile number so I don't know if we will keep in touch.'
Katie also told The Sun that appearing on The X Factor made her much tougher after the shock of receiving death threats and finding out her 81-year-old grandmother was an escort.
'There were times I got really low. I thought, 'What do you want to kill me for?' The X Factor made me grow a pair of steel balls.'

Notably, both cash compensation (including bonuses) and long-term incentives in terms of equity rose in 2007 at both public and private biotech companies. The median CEO direct compensation at publicly traded companies in 2007 was about $1 million, according to BioWorld . A separate study of private companies found two-thirds used options as their primary means of equity compensation, with a 5 percent stake typical.
There are important distinctions to be made, however, when discussing biotech pay: The industry is dominated by emerging growth companies and heavily weighted toward executive management with significant academic and scientific credentials. Why are these factors important to compensation issues? First, at emerging growth companies that have already had an IPO, the stock is more volatile and there are fewer liquidity scenarios. Second, the finite pool of current experienced, talented science business leaders creates high demand.
There is growing demand for individuals with a combination of two or more areas of functional expertise, such as Ph.D.s in a scientific field who have transitioned into senior business roles or clinical development physicians with outstanding regulatory experience.
Right now the executive compensation picture in biotech is one of supply and demand. Board members and CEOs must balance that against underlying market realities that are affecting the available pool of A-level talent.
The riskier nature of biotechnology stocks in general makes executive compensation based on sales and earnings goals or share activity impractical. In public companies, stock options have lost some cachet as a common incentive due to the volatile market. In pre-IPO companies, cash is a more likely incentive due to the unpredictable timing of the exit event. Thus, some companies are relying more on bonuses, based on achieving other, more performance-based goals, to boost compensation packages.
We are heading toward more uncharted territory in executive compensation discussions, where a more balanced approach, coupled with creative solutions, will become the norm.
The new negotiations
Managing compensation negotiations is a key responsibility of the executive search consultant, whose experience and insights help both clients as well as placements make more meaningful decisions. He or she can deeply engage in a consultative way with the candidate to determine what issues are important relative to making a career move. Total cash compensation may be less relevant than a new challenge or even good schools for the children. In addition, relocation expenses are a critical factor, even more so today because of the slump in housing prices. Executive search consultants explore the full range of candidate needs and wants and communicate them to the client, and help pinpoint not only what the candidate is worth, but what works for both the candidate and the company.
Additionally, search consultants have their fingers on the pulse of what the market will bear. They can help adjust compensation to remain competitive with that of other executives, and to reflect trends in competitor biotechnology companies, demographics, geographic regions and the economy.
The executive search consultant also takes client issues to the candidate for consideration. Equity parity, expectations for succession, and cash compensation relativity information can all help the candidate judge the total package and opportunity.
As an intermediary between the company and the candidate, a search consultant can provide insight into the appropriateness of the pay package relative to the size of the company, the complexity of the job, and the scope of responsibilities. A search consultant can also help the client and the candidate find creative compensation solutions outside of stock and bonuses. For example, in a search for the president of a publicly traded biotech company, we successfully recruited a candidate for whom we recommended competitive, performance-driven equity incentives in addition to cash compensation. With our input, the board created a compensation package that included stock option grants up front as well as additional stock incentives and benefits through to any material changes in the job.
Striking a balance
As economic conditions remain uncertain, executive pay is under even greater scrutiny. At public companies, shareholders are calling for boards to revamp their compensation programs to more closely link pay to performance, and increase the use of long-term incentives, such as restricted stock.
Although shareholders and investors don't want to feel as though their CEO makes money when they are losing money, it is imperative that we step back from the inflammatory stances of "she deserves it" or "he doesn't deserve it" and rationally evaluate how we determine what executives should earn. Setting compensation levels is
a complex process, involving a number of factors; it isn't just a matter of cutting bonuses
and boosting restricted stock. Here is how we think an organization can make executive compensation meaningful for executives and shareholders alike:
? When deciding what works best for your organization, try to strike a balance between rewarding leadership and having an executive compensation policy that will satisfy stakeholders.
?Ensure your compensation mirrors the value of both the company and the executive. Pay packages should take into account that different types of executives are needed at different phases of a company's development. For instance, earlier in its evolution, a talented entrepreneur may be needed; later a seasoned executive may be required to take the helm.
? Make sure your equity incentive plan is carefully planned and implemented to fit the company's size, culture and market. There is no one-size-fits-all approach. Smaller companies with limited budgets may have to craft a CEO and C-level compensation package that has a greater share of stock options in lieu of salary.
? Your policy should attract the best talent possible while remaining rational in the face of rising and falling market conditions.
? Select the right performance measures and goals appropriate for your executive, and for your company. Performance measures must reflect market conditions as well as business units' particular circumstances, and be consistent with corporate imperatives. They can become management tools for implementing strategy.
? Look carefully at the advantages and disadvantages of long-term vehicles such as stock options, time-vested restricted stock and performance-based restricted stock.
Given that biotech has an extremely competitive environment for recruiting proven talent, and shortages of available candidates in the areas of clinical research and regulatory affairs, it is essential that all parties understand well-crafted compensation packages are key to hiring top executives. An executive search consultant who understands a client organization and the intricacies of all its needs—and one who is a highly knowledgeable professional—can bring all the issues to the forefront of negotiations in collaboration with the board and CEO. He or she can be a partner to help craft a compensation package that meets your business objectives while attracting the best talent possible.

The Augusta-Richmond County Fire Department has decided to spend almost $100,000 to repair damages at Fire Station No. 9, even though it is likely to be rebuilt in a new location in the next few years.
Last week, the Augusta Commission approved a winning bid from Continental Construction of $96,836 to repair the damaged station in 60 days. The only competing bid was from RCN Contracting for $100,900 for work to be completed in 70 days, according to commission documents.
Station 9 is on a list of stations that need to be rebuilt, Fire Chief Chris James said, but that is likely years away.
Alexander Drive's Station No. 10 was the newest to be rebuilt and was unveiled in January. The next station in line is No. 2 on Walton Way.
"It needs to be replaced pretty soon," James said, noting that Station 9 is at least two or three stations down the list.
James said moving Station 9 up is impractical because the department would first have to find and purchase new land. The process of bidding the project, writing a contract and building the station means not having a working station in that area for too long. Usually when the fire department rebuilds a station, the existing station is used until construction is complete.
"It takes about a year or more to build a new station," James said. "We can't afford to wait."
On June 25, a fire engine hit Station 9's center column between its garage doors, and part of the front of the building collapsed. The firefighters were moved to neighboring stations while an investigation into the accident and the extent of the damage was done by the city's risk management division.
A preliminary report found that the column was not reinforced. It's difficult to determine why, officials said, because the building underwent frequent modifications over the years.
James said the structure was built to serve another purpose before the fire department moved into it in the late 1970s. Since then, the building has had several additions.
"A report said the garage door was not up to code," he said. "This reconstruction will fix that and allow the station to be used safely."
The driver of the truck, which has been repaired, will not face any disciplinary actions. An accident review board said it could not determine fault, and risk management decided the driver was not at fault.
James said he will meet with the law department to complete a contract with Continental Construction this week. He said he hopes construction will begin in the next few weeks and that it won't take 60 days to complete.
"My hope is we could move back in within a few months," he said.

Another cracking week of telly-watching lies ahead as The Good Wife returns to RTÉ One, Modern Family and The Fall continue, Doctor Who and Grey's Anatomy reach thrilling season finales, and Case Histories is back for a second run.
Pick of the week
The Good Wife (Thursday, RTÉ One)
Season four of the best show on TV begins – and anyone who hasn't seen it already elsewhere is really in for a treat. This season is fantastic, from start to finish, with the magnificent cast - Julianna Margulies, Christine Baranski , Josh Charles, Archie Panjabi etc - all pulling their weight in the most delightful of ways.
For starters, Alicia goes on the offensive when Zach is targeted by an overzealous state trooper. Meanwhile, after her estranged husband tracked her down in last season's finale, Kalinda decides to stand her ground rather than continue hiding, and Diane and Will delve into the firm's financial problems. The great guest stars have always been a feature of this show, and season four's no different. To get the ball rolling, Kristin Chenoweth guest stars as political reporter Peggy Byrne, the great Nathan Lane guest stars as Clarke Hayden, the firm's appointed trustee and Marc Warren guest stars as Nick, Kalinda's ex-husband.
Star of the week
Jason Isaacs
Case Histories (Sunday, BBC One)
Jason Isaacs can do no wrong in my eyes (with the possible exception of the long-haired wig he wore as in the Harry Potter movies). The Liverpudlian actor has impressed all throughout his career, ranging from British TV to Hollywood, before reaching a peak in 2008 with his spooky portrayal of Harry C Corbett in BBC 4's The Curse of Steptoe. Probably best-known for his role as as Lucius Malfoy in the Harry Potter film series, he was also superb in US cable drama Brotherhood. Recently he starred in the fascinating NBC drama Awake, but this week he returns to the BBC for the second run of Case Histories.
Last year's first season was a joy from start to finish and Isaacs stars as Brodie, a complicated and compulsive Edinburgh-based private detective. In this opening episode, Victoria Wood plays a retired policewoman who finds herself on the wrong side of the law. As for Jackson, he's back in Edinburgh after a child-snatching job in Munich, and struggles with guilt about whether or not he returned the child to the right parent.
Starting this week
Once Upon a Time (Saturday, RTÉ One)
This bizarre and oddly compelling series about a modern US town filled with fairytale figures unaware of their past returns for a second season. Following the first season finale, where the townsfolk suddenly and collectively realised who they are, Emma leads her newfound allies in an attempt to move past the consequences of magic in the Real World. Meanwhile, Rumplestiltskin continues to fight Regina in a struggle for power. And in the fairytale world, Princess Aurora is woken up by her betrothed Prince Phillip, but Phillip and his warrior companion Mulan must face a deadly wraith.
Also starting this week:
The Family Project (Monday, RTÉ One)
Six well-known and inspirational people team-up with six very different families who are struggling with life challenges.
Jo (Sunday, Fox)
Jean Reno and Orla Brady star in this Paris-based cop drama about a hardnut cop, his rookie new partner and their female boss who has a history with Mr Hardnut.
Ending this week
Doctor Who (Saturday, BBC One)
This one hasn't been the best of runs for the oul' Doctor – but they've promised to end with the mother and father of a bang. Clara is summoned to an impossible conference call, alerting her that the deadly Whisper Men are closing in on Vastra, Jenny and Strax. Someone is kidnapping the Doctor's friends, leading him toward the one place in all of time and space that he should never go. It's a deadly trap that threatens to unravel his past, present and future . . .
Also ending this week:
Grey's Anatomy (Wednesday, Sky Living)
Season nine comes to a close with a storm – just as Meredith is due to give birth. We certainly don't want to spoil things for you, but fans know that creator Shonda Rhimes loves a spectacular finale, and this one promises to be no different. Tissues at the ready . . .
Scott & Bailey (Thursday, UTV)
It takes a call from MIT Command, alerting the team to Gill's disappearance to galvanise Scott and Bailey.
Drama of the week
The Fall (Sunday, RTÉ One/Monday, BBC Two)
If last week's opener is anything to go by, this could be one of the TV highlights of the year. Former X-Files' star Gillian Anderson's the obvious magnet as Met Cop Stella Gibson, but makes The Fall compelling is the writing ofAllan Cubitt, whose CV includes The Runaway, Murphy's Law and Prime Suspect. Tonight, as the murder investigation continues, Gibson's worst fears are realised as Spector's murder spree in Belfast continues and a reckless decision has Gibson facing some very real consequences.
Comedy of the week
Modern Family (Friday, Sky 1)
This show continues to maintain a ridiculously high standard. This week, Claire checks into hospital to have an angiogram, only to receive an unexpected (and frightening) glimpse of the future. Plus, Mitch, Cam and Gloria decide to take Lily to a Vietnamese restaurant to expose her to her Asian roots, while Jay struggles to put his reservations to one side when he accompanies Manny on a tour of a prospective private school.
Documentary of the week
Eddie Izzard's Mandela Marathon (Thursday, Sky 1)
Actor and comedian Eddie Izzard signs up for an almighty challenge in this two-part documentary, attempting to complete 27 marathons across South Africa in 27 days, each race in commemoration of the 27 years that Nelson Mandela spent incarcerated in prison. The tall task begins appropriately enough in Mandela's birthplace of Mvezo, There is no easing-in as rough, rocky terrain takes its toll on Izzard. Cheered on by locals, he chugs on and by the episode's end has made it to Sharpeville where, in 1960, 69 unarmed apartheid protesters were shot dead by the police, triggering a turnaround in Mandela's political strategy. But even at this early stage, unforeseen circumstances will soon become a cause of concern for Eddie Izzard.

VIDEO: Clip of 'Clocks' from Coldplay Live 2012 Tour
A taste of a forthcoming concert film on Epix, three days before its worldwide release, Coldplay already gave us a sneak peak off their forthcoming Live 2012 with a video of "Paradise," but lest we forget there was a time before HD and Mylo Xyloto, the U.K. titans of epic soft-rock bring us another teaser from the rockumentary, "Clocks." Watch it below!
The Grammy-winning single off 2003's A Rush of Blood to the Head is perhaps the London outfit's best song, and this one-and-a-half-minute clip does the stirring live rendition just enough justice to convince you that if you're not parked in front of your computer to stream Coldplay Live 2012 when airs on EPIX and streams on EpixHD.com at 8 p.m. EST on November 17 (got that?), your life will lose some serious meaning.
In case you'll miss the concert film's one-night-only theatrical showing tonight, EPIX will premiere it as an Original Concert Event a full three days before the CD/DVD, Blu-Ray/CD, and digital copy are released for general purchase on November 19 via Capitol Records. Check out the "Clocks" clip and join the countdown at EPIX's official website.

Mark Martin secures pole at Kansas for the latest round of the NASCAR Chase

Cup points leader Mark Martin had to come from the 14th starting position to finish first and second in the first two Chase races.
In Sunday's Price Chopper 400 at Kansas Speedway, Martin simply will have to maintain his position - not improve it - after winning the pole during time trials on a blustery Friday at the 1.5-mile track.
With a lap at 175.758 mph, Martin edged Hendrick Motorsports teammate Dale Earnhardt Jr. (175.279 mph) for the top starting spot. Earnhardt earned his best starting position since starting second at Watkins Glen in August 2008.
Full-time Nationwide Series driver Brad Keselowski, who runs a limited Cup schedule for two car owners (Rick Hendrick and James Finch), qualified third at 175.205 mph in a Hendrick car. Jamie McMurray (175.200 mph) and Tony Stewart (175.041 mph) will start fourth and fifth, respectively.
Kasey Kahne, Joe Nemechek, Clint Bowyer, Jeff Gordon and rookie Scott Speed claimed starting positions six through 10.
Martin, who leads the Cup standings by 10 points over teammate Jimmie Johnson, put his No. 5 Chevrolet on the pole for the seventh time this season, eclipsing his previous career best (six poles in 1989).
"Have any of you ever stepped on a cat's tail?" Martin asked after his lap. "I have accidentally stepped on a cat's tail before, and it's pretty funny how fast -- they make a noise, and they go really fast. That's kind of like when I step on the gas on that 5 car today, it was like stepping on a cat's tail. Man, that thing has so much horsepower."
Martin seemed as pleased with Earnhardt's performance as his own.
"Hendrick Motorsports swept the top three spots today in qualifying, and I was really excited for Dale Jr.," Martin said. "(He) really needed that shot in the arm -- and got it. It would have been nice to have seen him on the pole, but still, front row's great."
Earnhardt said some last-minute adjustments helped his qualifying run.
"We were just a couple of adjustments short and got those in right before qualifying," Earnhardt said. "We had a pretty good draw, going out 25th, but the track was about the same for everybody, I felt. The wind was pretty rough all day long, but I might have caught a window during my lap, because I didn't get any gusts or anything that bothered my car.
"It's a good front-row starting spot for us, and we need that type of performance -- and needed it for some time. It's got all the guys on the team excited. We'll see how that rolls over into (Saturday's) practice and see if we can carry some momentum throughout the day and try to turn out a pretty good racecar for Sunday."
In addition to Martin, Stewart, Kahne and Gordon, other Chase drivers will start as follows: Johnson, 11th; Brian Vickers, 12th; Juan Pablo Montoya, 14th; Carl Edwards, 17th; Denny Hamlin 22nd; Ryan Newman, 30th; Greg Biffle 31st; and Kurt Busch 39th.
David Gilliland, Michael McDowell and Kevin Hamlin failed to qualify for the 43-car field.

Anyone up for some dessert? Google (s GOOG) is offering a little "cupcake" for Android developers with version 1.5 of the mobile operating system's System Development Kit. Clearly, the SDK is for Android developers, but it offers a glimpse of features and functions you can expect to see as the Android platform matures. What sort of features and functions? Glad you asked! Here's a partial list I pulled together when I caught the news from AndroidGuys:
- System-wide Accelerometer-based application rotations
- Faster Camera startup and image capture
- Much faster acquisition of GPS location (powered by SUPL AGPS)
- Smoother page scrolling in Browser
- On-screen soft keyboard (works in both portrait and landscape orientation)
- Bundled home screen widgets include: analog clock, calendar, music player, picture frame, and search
- Stereo Bluetooth support (A2DP and AVCRP profiles)
- Copy 'n paste in browser
- Search within a page in browser
- Shows user picture for Favorites in Contacts
- View Google Talk friends' status in Contacts, SMS, MMS, GMail, and Email applications
- Text prediction engine
That's just the icing on the cupcake, so check the full run-down on the Android Developers site. With as much as I use and live in the Google world, an update like this could lure me over to T-Mobile. I saw plenty of promise in the G1 when I first looked at it, but it still felt rough around the edges to me. There's definitely some smoother corners coming to Android soon, thanks to these new features.

With our wedding less than six months away, I thought I'd share with you some things that have worked well for us so far in this destination-wedding process. A destination wedding requires a lot of time, patience, and effort, but what good is all that if you haven't properly communicated the details with your potential guests? I'm sure the same is true for local weddings too, so here are some tips on keeping your guests informed.
Image via Etsy shop MyPrimitiveBoutique
- Let people know your date as soon as you've chosen it.
We had our date picked about 13 months before the actual day, so we started verbally (and virtually) communicating this to our closest friends and family to ensure that our VIPs would informally save the date.
- Create a wedding website.
Trust me when I say guests are very, very grateful for a place they can visit that has all the info for your big day. Even if you don't want to include all the lovey-dovey details on how you first met, how the proposal went down, and photos of you guys making googly eyes at each other, make a very basic site that just has the where, when, and how (travel info guests need to know, like if they need a passport, how to get to your wedding location, room block info, and how to book, etc.). This will save you from people randomly calling/texting/emailing you at all hours of the day and night for information. Trust me!!
- Try to send save the dates eight to ten months before the big day.
We sent ours about nine months before the wedding date and included an additional insert letting guests know about the room blocks and booking instructions on our wedding website. This allowed guests ample time to start making their travel arrangements months before the actual invites would go out. Feel free to go digital too—it's totally fine to send a save-the-date email or e-card. There are a ton of sites that offer free e-invite templates like Evite or Punchbowl.
- Consider creating a secret invite-only group on Facebook.
We haven't done this yet but absolutely will after the invites go out. Two of my friends did this for their weddings, and it was a great place where guests could ask questions and leave comments in real time. I prefer to create this group after the invites go out so that we only include people who've RSVP'd yes, but feel free to create this at any time.
Do you have any tips for sharing wedding info with your guests?

Official government compilations of economic data are inadequate, and data reported by many of the international sources relied upon for Index grading remain incomplete. Economic recovery since the overthrow of Muammar Qadhafi's regime has been fragile. Political instability, factional clashes, and security threats from domestic and foreign followers of the Islamic State are significant constraints on economic growth and meaningful development. The government faces major challenges in disarming and demobilizing militias, enforcing the rule of law, and reforming the state-dominated economy. Read more about Libya Economy. Close Background Dictator Muammar Qadhafi was overthrown in 2011, and political upheaval continues to this day. In June 2014, Libya held its second parliamentary election since the fall of Qadhafi; in November, the Supreme Constitutional Court ruled that the elected parliament was constitutionally illegitimate. Pro-Islamist militias allied with the Muslim Brotherhood have established parallel institutions. In March 2016, the U.N. brokered the establishment of a national unity government in Tripoli to replace the two rival administrations. Oil and natural gas provide about 80 percent of GDP, 95 percent of export revenues, and 99 percent of government revenues.

As a solo-entrepreneur or home based business owner I'm sure you attend many networking events as a way to market and promote your business. You meet someone at a networking event exchange pleasantries and business cards. Then you race home to immediately add them to your email list.
Are you making this really bad mistake with your networking?
Networking offline and online is about building relationships. Adding someone to your list from an email you lifted off their business card will not help the relationship. This is especially true if you did not specifically get their permission to receive email messages from you. It has to be clear when they gave you their business card they were giving you permission. If not, simply don't add them to your list.
Now don't get me wrong I understand the power of a list and how a good list can bring you extraordinary income. Yet sometimes it takes only one email to your list to cause a problem. Here are 5 very important issues you may not be aware of that may ruin your business simply by adding an email to your list without permission:
Your prospects may think you are a spammer
Even if you just met them they may not remember you or your newsletter may not be something their interest in or a good fit. If someone repeatedly receives messages from you they did not request, they very well could mark each message they see as SPAM.
Your ISP may block your emails
If you are sending large amounts of email from your regular mail using Outlook or mail program from your internet service provider (Comcast, Verizon, etc) watch out. Your ISP has rules about sending the same email to large groups. They could block ALL your emails without you ever knowing there was an issue.
Your email marketing company can cancel your service
That's right you may be violating their terms of service. The email marketing company has to protect the deliverability of messages for all customers. They have rules in place to monitor how often people mark your message as a spam and how many people opt-out.
Your big list may not mean big sales
If your purpose of adding people to your list is just to have a large list you may be disappointment. Having a large untargeted list may not bring you a large amount of sales. Keep in mind when growing your network offline and online (Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn) it's about the quality not the quantity.
Your emails may be breaking the law
The CAN-SPAM Act, a law that sets the rules for commercial email, establishes requirements for commercial messages, gives recipients the right to have you stop emailing them, and spells out tough penalties for violations. If want to avoid these issues make sure prospects and connections request your information with a confirmed opt-in. Then make it easy for them to unsubscribe from your list with easy to find links. And most importantly make sure you are sending only relevant and valuable information.

1. How can I do something of this?
"It is recommended that you protect the directory in which you installed phpMyAdmin (unless it's on a closed intranet, or you wish to use HTTP or cookie authentication), for example with HTTP-AUTH (in a .htaccess file)"
2. i'm trying to set a password in config.inc.php but then I get this:
Welcome to phpMyAdmin 2.5.0
MySQL said:
Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: YES)
what to do?
Is this a fresh install? How did you start up the MySQL db? If you just want to get started you might want to try starting the db with the safestartmysql script...
yes I installed it now, i startup MySQL with:
/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld_safe --user=mysql &
is that what you mean?
okay, now I've set a password for user root in mysql,,. but how do I get a secure connection to phpMyAdmin so that noone else can use my phpMyAdmin from the internet?

A genealogy class, "Clues in the Census Records," will be offered by the Anoka County Historical Society and the Anoka County Genealogical Society Tuesday, May 15, 4:30 to 6 p.m., at the Anoka History Center.
The U.S. census has been one of the most valuable resources employed by genealogists and family historians, according to Todd Mahon, historical society executive director.
The release of the 1940 census has ushered in a new sense of excitement among this community, Mahon said.
"The 1940 census marks the first time that questions about education levels, previous marriages and more are alongside the usual questions about age, gender and ethnicity, he said.
Cathi Weber, president of the Anoka County Genealogical Society, will teach the class that covers how to use the census in family research.
She will pay particular attention to the recently released 1940 census.
Participants will learn how to access the census, how to locate individuals in it and more.
Space is limited. To reserve a spot, call the historical society at 763-421-0600. The class costs $7 for the general public and $5 for members of the historical or genealogical societies.
The Anoka County History Center and Library is located at 2135 Third Ave. N. in Anoka.

Please confirm that you want to add Piano: Learn 48 chords in 1 hour, and always remember how to your Wishlist.
We must be doing something right, It's tough to please people on the internet :) Over 1350 beginners have given us a 4.5 star rating average! Course updated 10/04/17, UK date format
Have any of these things prevented you starting on your dream of playing Piano?
We remove all three of those problems and, like Sue who thinks that "I would have been playing piano for years by now if I'd realised how easy it would be...." none of these issues will stop you achieving your dream of playing piano... today... in an hour in fact..literally! I appreciate it could sound unrealistic but...read the reviews
"For years I've been wanting to learn the piano, but always postponed it as it seemed so difficult. Half way through this course I was already trying all kind of things out on my piano, and was in shock that it all worked out." Gregory, One of our students.
This innovative technique uses shapes and patterns as a much more intuitive way, to get people playing, rather than a reading music based approach or tedious scales that tends to only work for a few. Most of the worlds music doesn't rely on notation and you don't need to either. I certainly didn't as a professional musician touring the world - everything can be done by ear, and I can show you how. Enrol now to get playing..who doesn't want to impress people playing the piano?
But why a short hour and a half course rather than a really really long one?
In my academic experience (Cambridge University post grad in Education) it's pretty clear to me what actually works when explaining things to people. Long courses that offer endless hours of instruction gather metaphorical digital dust, remaining unwatched however good your intention is to finally get around to watching.
What actually does work for most people are short practical courses, that scaffold knowledge. If you want people to really flourish you help learners discover for themselves the joy of playing the piano as quickly as possible. Those words joy and fun are really important in learning!
This course is designed to be just long enough (1 hour and a half) to give you exactly the knowledge and confidence in themselves beginners need to play what they want to play, yet it is short enough that you can actually complete it (no filler or rote learning). Just think for a second about being able to play the songs you love on the piano after just an hours practical demonstration and just how cool that would be. Thousands of online students have discovered it really is possible, in just one hour, to learn enough to have a lifetime of fun and enjoyment actually playing. And you can do it using a completely different approach using shapes and patterns rather than notes and theory.
"I'm more of a pick up and play sorta guy! This course has literally taken me from knowing a few chords (and not remembering them!) to opening up a whole new world of musical possibilities" Adam, one of our students
You don't actually have to suffer the tyranny of theory or reading to enjoy getting started on the Piano - Want to be like Adam or Gerry - Enrol now
"Making something that appears extremely complicated into something simple and understandable is an art. This course is the first I have ever done that had me hooked from the first minute and Simon is a superb instructor" Gerry
Don't take our word for it though, check out our video where we are featured by the BBC News team and read the reviews below!
Best of all we are so confident in the effectiveness of our method that there is a guaranteed 30-day refund if you're not satisfied. Doesn't work then you get your money back no questions asked - I guarantee you'll be too busy playing that song you've always wanted to be able to though
Enrol now and get playing!
It looks really complicated doesn't it the keyboard. But if it's broken down it's actually really really simple. We'll show you in five minutes how to work out which note is which. We will use shapes and patterns to do this so it's something you know and understand not something theoretical. That basic foundation will be vital in your journey to playing the songs you want in less than an hour.
Knowing where the notes are is the key to this method - lets check what you remembered from the video.
Here it is the bit you've been waiting for! In this lecture I will give you the formula or rule that will enable you to work out how to construct a chord. This is the building block on which everything else sits. Get this right and you are well on your way to playing chords on the piano and unlocking it as an instrument.
here are some questions to help you consolidate what you've learnt
A few songs with lyrics and chords so you can try your new skills, Some Dylan, Rollling stones, Bruno Mars just to get you started
OK we've got 7 chords down. If you listen carefully in this lecture we will show you how just by making one simple change to all those chords you have already learned you can access another seven chords - making 14 in total
Theres a rule for remembering their name. Here it is
Here is a pdf with the chords for a song clearly mapped out and a walkthrough of how you interpret how to translate chords written on a page to a recognisable song.
I'm a specialist in music technology, a sound engineer and producer as well as educator and musician. I've lectured on this method of teaching at a number of major UK university's, including Cambridge University.
I have 20 years experience as a professional touring musician. 4 record contracts, Millions of youtube hits, and appearances at major music festivals around the world. I'm currently doing a post grad in Education (Cambridge University) and I have 15 years experience of working with music and young people in very challenging circumstances - I know how to explain this stuff to people so they understand it :)
Playing an instrument has so many wonderful plus points. I've helped thousands of people to realise that actually even when they thought they couldn't that they can play an instrument. It's not an impossibility and the benefits of that on peoples sense of self and wellbeing, enjoyment, confidence and identity are enormous - be a musician it's a wonderful world of fun to be a part of.
