The Warp artists will tour the US and Canada together this autumn.
One of the most prominent stars of the IDM heyday, UK artist Tom Jenkinson has been active since the mid-90s with numerous lauded releases on Rephlex and Warp. His work in the past has covered ground from "drill & bass" style breakcore to live jazz. Earlier this year he released his latest album Ufabulum, which saw a return to purely programmed electronics. Though Jenkinson made a few US appearances in the wake of that LP's release, he'll make a return to the continent in October, this time with his Warp labelmates Mount Kimbie in tow.
Mount Kimbie caused quite a stir when they first appeared on Hotflush Recordings with two EPs in 2009. Those records revealed a downbeat take on bass music fleshed out with live instrumentation, a dynamic further explored on their debut album Crooks & Lovers. They've since moved from Hotflush to Warp Records and are currently working on their second LP. Mount Kimbie will perform their full band live act—an outfit that once included James Blake—while Jenkinson will play a live set based on Ufabulum.
The joint tour begins with Squarepusher's appearance at Moogfest on October 26th in Asheville, North Carolina. Mount Kimbie will join him for the rest of the dates. Those include stops in Philadelphia, Silver Spring, Boston and NYC before a single Canadian date in Toronto on November 2nd. Their partnership will come to an end in Chicago the following evening, at which point Mount Kimbie will carry on solo up the West Coast for three more dates in Los Angeles, San Francisco and Seattle.

Looking forward to update fixing FF55 compatibility, I use this theme and userstyles for all my machines, thanks to the extension Disable Add-on Compatibility Checks I can keep FF from blinding me in the meantime.

Works Great, needs two updates Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Been using this for over 2yrs now had no issues aside from temp incompatibility as others have mentioned.
Current problems I've run into:
- Foreground/selected pinned tab renders wrongly when tab scrolling is in effect, moves to the start of the scroll, covering the first tab's icon.
- Tab Groups view is unaffected by the theme, problem started after it got turned into an add-on.

Amazing addon when it worked in the spring, since then it's always one version behind FF updates.
Running FF6, still not working....

Great addon; couple minor requests Rated 5 out of 5 stars
This is fantastic! Used to use TinEye but their results got more n more scarce. With this I get +10x more results plus Google's previews. Wish the guys at TinEye all the best, once Google steps in they're bound to take over.
Can the context menu entry be placed in the first group of options (view/copy)? I have a long list due to other addons.

Please make one for Greasemonkey and/or Scriptish coz the addon tab isn't working

SkipScreen -- download helper, now for sale...
site compatibility (may be prblm with aurora and nightly) Rated 4 out of 5 stars
I only use aurora and nightly right now so it may work perfectly with beta [FF5] and release [FF4])
filesonic: site keeps refreshing when countdown ends
that's one of the many sites the addon has not worked on, but can't recall the rest...other issues were minimal, like having to push download button, but filesonic is the biggest hindrance since i have to either disable skipscreen or use another browser instead.

Can this be combined with the Color addon as well? No biggie since its a restartless addon but would be one less in my addons page.This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.0.1-signed.1-signed).
Add-on Compatibility Reporter
Rated 4 out of 5 stars
Useful but a nuisance at the same time on both 4.0 and 4.2. It ALWAYS notifies me that it's been disabled at startup and when I enable it it disables ALL addons that are "incompatible" even those I reported to be working; notification of my compatibility rating is visible but ignored when enabled.
EDIT: Should be set to not disable a rated addon unless the browser or addon has been previously updated to a newer version. Alternatively keep the [Compatibility] button visible even when AC Reporter claims to be disabled (Reports compatibility but doesn't give the option to submit feedback, and once enabled it disables everything it considers to be incompatible).

Tab Utilities unable to change text color Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Everything works fine except for Strat40 v0.6 final not allowing me to customize text color color on tabs; Bold/Italics work and Underline/Strikethrough/Outline embrace the color. Background color still works so it shouldn't be too hard to fix.
This is using Tab Utilities and not Tab Mix Plus like last time.

NEWARK — The Newark Public Library will commemorate Black History Month 2011 with two exhibits, a teach-in and performances that celebrate the exuberance, grace and innovation of black dance, from its origins in African villages to its incorporation into mass culture and Broadway musicals.
The Limbo, Cakewalk, Georgia Grind, Lindy Hop and the Shimmy — some of the most famous and enduring dance steps in America — can trace their roots to tribal rites such as Sowu, the Ghanese "dance of life," and the Focodaba initiation dance from Guinea. These dance styles were carried over in slave ships, became fused with European influences in the South, and flowered into new and unexpected variations. That progression is explored in this year's Black History Month salute, We Are a Dancing People: The History of Black Dance From Then Until Now.
Curated by Sandra L. West, an associate in the library's James Brown African-American Room, the exhibit is paired with a photographic display, The Art of Dance, by photographer/collagist Mansa K. Mussa. Both shows are at the Main Library, 5 Washington Street, and will run through March 15. To schedule guided tours of the exhibition, call 1-973-7335411.
"The cultural contributions of African Americans to this country, broad and deep as they are, are not always fully acknowledged," said Library Director Wilma J. Grey. "This exhibit provides some welcome recognition — and what a joyful theme to explore!"
The opening night celebration for the Library's Black History Month activities will take place on Febr. 10 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the Main Library and will feature jazz by the Sherry Winston Trio and an African dance performance by the 7th Principle Dance & Drum Ensemble. Curator of the photographic display, Mansa Mussa, also will speak and East Orange author Cheryl Willis Hudson will offer a reading from her new book, "My Friend Maya Loves to Dance."
Funding for the Library's Black History Month activities and exhibits has been provided by a generous grant from the PNC Foundation. The exhibition and opening night program will take place at the Main Library, 5 Washington Street, downtown Newark.
"Each year we look forward to supporting the Newark Public Library in celebrating the rich cultural history of the African-American community during Black History Month," said Linda Bowden, northern New Jersey regional president for PNC. "The focus of this year's exhibit on the history of black dance highlights the influence of global styles on the art of dance. The Newark community and its international neighborhoods are the perfect backdrop to showcase that history and the influence of black dance on our national and global communities today."
In addition to opening night, Black History Month celebrations include:
• Saturday, February 5, noon-2 p.m., Main Library
A talk by Dr. Antoinette Ellis-Williams of New Jersey City University on Dr. Lee Hagan, for whom the college's Africana Studies Center is named.
- Wednesday, February 9, 6-8 p.m., Weequahic Branch, 355 Osborne Terrace, 973-733-7752 — Annual African-American Read-In, featuring South Ward leaders reading some of their favorite poems and short essays. For ages 8 to adult.
- Wednesday, February 16, 6-8 p.m., Main Library — A performance of Egypt and other dances by the Daughters of Hetheru, who will talk about the African roots of belly dancing.
- Wednesday, February 23, 6-8 p.m., Main Library — The inaugural meeting of the W.E.B. DuBois Reading Circle, which will meet quarterly to discuss nonfiction works. The first session will focus on "The Making of African America: The Four Great Migrations," by Ira Berlin.
- Wednesday, February 23, 4 p.m., Weequahic Branch and Friday, February 25, 3:30 p.m., Springfield Branch, 50 Hayes Street, 973-733-7736 — The Okra Dance Company will present Journey Into Africa, a performance of songs and dances from Senegal to Soweto.
- Saturday, March 5, 12 noon-2 p.m., Main Library — An afternoon of liturgical dance, Armor Bearers for Christ, sponsored by St. James AME Church in Newark.
- Saturday, March 12, 12 noon-2 p.m. Main Library — A reading by poet Sonia Sanchez, author of "Homegirls and Hand Grenades," "Morning Haiku," and other acclaimed works.
All programs are free and open to the public. For more information or to arrange a tour of the exhibits, call (973) 733-5411. In case of inclement weather, call (973) 733-7800 to determine whether the Library is open.

5 held in shooting death of Providence teen
Providence police said Monday that four adults and one juvenile were charged in the shooting death of a Providence teenager.
Police said 17-year-old George Holland II was shot to death Tuesday at 145 Colfax St.
The adults were arraigned in Providence District Court on charges of first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder and were ordered held without bail.
Police identified the adults as Ashner Alexis, 18, no permanent address; Alain Bedame, 18, of Pawtucket; Limamou Ndoye, 19, of Providence; and Anthony Moore, 21, of Woonsocket.
The juvenile is being held at the Training School pending a hearing in Family Court on Friday. He was also charged with first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder.
Police said Holland was shot through a window while visiting his girlfriend at her home on the city's South Side.
Police aren't saying who they believe the target was, but they said three of the suspects met in Providence to talk about shooting someone, and then met up with the other suspect and the juvenile in Woonsocket.
"They obtained a gun there. They drove back to the city, and that's where they committed the murder," Maj. David Lapatin said.
Relatives said they learned of the arrests at Holland's wake and funeral service Monday morning.
Several went to court afterward to see their loved one's alleged killers face a judge.
"You know my family can start healing and not worry about them being on the streets to do this to anybody else's family," Gina Bly, an aunt of the victim, said.

MANILA, PHILIPPINES - Agricultural products moving through the northeastern port area of Tianjin will soon have an expanded shelf life and lower spoilage rates with the Asian Development Bank (ADB) providing its first-ever logistics-related loan to establish a large capacity cold chain facility.
"The project will not only address growing concern over food safety due in the People's Republic of China (PRC) to lack of infrastructure in cold chain storage and distribution, it's also critical for agriculture product transportation and storage," said Lu Shen, an ADB Investment Specialist in the Private Sector Operations Department.
ADB assisted PRC in strengthening the national food safety regulatory and strategic framework back in 2007. This project will not only highlight the importance of the logistics sector in food safety, but also set important benchmarks on logistic handling and quality control.
Tedahang Cold Chain Logistics (TCCL) will use the CNY150 million loan to introduce an international common warehouse management system, logistics management, and trading system that can serve as a model for the development of the cold chain logistics industry in the PRC. The facility will also provide merchandise handling, warehousing, logistics equipment, as well as a customs inspection service facility for fruits and vegetables, meat and aquatic products.
ADB has been making efforts to improve ties between Mongolia's foreign trade communities and their counterparts in Tianjin. The enhanced cold chain logistics capacity will help provide better services to Mongolia's export of agricultural produce, particularly meat and dairy products, which is projected to increase 25% over the next five years.
TCCL is a joint venture project of Tianjin Binhai TEDA Logistics Group, Toyota Tsusho (China) Co., Ltd, and Kamigumi (Hong Kong) Co. Ltd.

Washington, DC—Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid made the following statement today after a bipartisan meeting with President Obama and Senate leaders to discuss the seat on the United States Supreme Court soon to be vacated by Justice David Souter:
"I thank the President for inviting this bipartisan group to the White House for consultation as he considers who he will nominate to the Supreme Court. We had a good discussion and an opportunity to let the President know what we think is important in a Supreme Court nominee.
"I am confident that President Obama will nominate somebody who is well-qualified and who will faithfully apply the Constitution's text, history and principles – without regard to their personal political views. I know Sen. Sessions and Sen. McConnell will work with us to ensure fair and respectful hearings for the President's nominee and prompt confirmation."

CBS in Chicago is reporting that Anne Hatch, 27, the daughter of former Minnesota Attorney General Mike Hatch, was found dead Sunday in her condo.
The exact cause of death was not known.
Anne Hatch and her sister Elizabeth were arrested in Chicago in 2004 following a confrontation with a police officer outside a nightclub. The sisters were later acquitted of battery, resisting arrest and criminal damage.
Mike Hatch's lawfirm colleague, Jerry Blackwell, issued this statement from the Hatch family:
Our daughter, Anne, died unexpectedly yesterday in Chicago. This is a sad and painful time for our family. Nothing in life can prepare you for the loss of a child. We are grateful for the outpouring of support and compassion we have received from so many people. We ask that our family's privacy be respected at this very difficult time.
The Chicago Tribune reports that Anne Hatch died by hanging, according to the Cook County medical examiner's office, which ruled her death a suicide.

A day after the New York Times travel supplement carried a story on Baltimore that included An die Musik among "essential" night life stops, the concert venue/retail CD shop presented a recital of Schubert lieder performed by two Peabody-trained artists. Alas, the validation (or at least suggestion) of trendiness from the Times did not lead to a stampede at the box office Monday night, but the few who turned out were amply rewarded.
Baritone Ryan de Ryke and pianist Daniel Schlosberg have demonstrated on previous joint appearances around this area that they enjoy a smooth rapport. It seemed smoother than ever on this occasion, as the two explored the theme of nature in Schubert songs, served up in groups of three or four at a time under such headings as "Man and Mountain" and "Forest Murmurs." The thoughtful choices added up to a cohesive, consistently engaging program; the musicality was on a high level throughout.
It's possible to wish that de Ryke had a little more
weight in his tone, a little more control when shifting dynamics, but it's impossible to miss the sensitivity he brings to text and melodic line alike. He was in his element here, tapping deeply into the poetry and communicating powerfully (even the lesser verses spoke tellingly). The baritone's rapt delivery of the expansive "Des Fischers Liebesgluck" was but one example; his warmly shaped phrasing of "Der Winterabend" was another.
Schlosberg's combination of refined technique and subtle shading ensured that the accompaniment enjoyed the equal footing Schubert intended. Very classy pianism.
If you missed the recital (heck, I know you did), here's a sample of the de Ryke/Scholsberg chemistry, filmed at the University of Notre Dame (where the pianist is an artist-in-residence). This is a Schubert song that wasn't on the program, but, given its references to nature, could have been -- "Nachtstuck," which describes an old man contemplating the forest on a misty night and taking up his harp to sing of the long, not unwelcome sleep of death that awaits him:

Red Cross closes Herkimer shelter, reopens Utica shelter for flood victims
Tue, 02 Jul 2013 03:08:44 GMT —
More flooding in Herkimer County Monday forced the Red Cross to close its shelter in the Village of Herkimer and reopen the shelter in Utica.
The shelter in Utica is at the Mohawk Valley Community College. The Red Cross says the shelter is open to all Mohawk Valley residents who had to evacuate their homes because of the severe flooding that began Friday. Red Cross had closed the shelter Sunday because residents displaced by the floods no longer needed to stay there.
On Monday, heavy rains caused even more flooding and displaced more people from their homes.
The Red Cross shelter that opened in the City of Oneida Friday night is still open to those impacted by the flooding. That shelter is located at the YMCA in the City of Oneida.

Lawyer bills for UT regent investigation top $200K
Mon, 13 Jan 2014 02:31:35 GMT —
DALLAS (AP) - The investigation of possible impeachment of an embattled University of Texas regent has now cost the state $200,000 and rising.
The Dallas Morning News reports (http://bit.ly/1cYonAP) that high profile Houston attorney Rusty Hardin has submitted his latest and largest bill of $163,000 for legal aid. That pushed total costs above $200,000 just through October.
Hardin was retained by a special House committee investigating Regent Wallace Hall. He's accused of misusing his office in an attempt to oust Austin campus president Bill Powers.
Hardin's team billed for hundreds of hours spent poring over documents and interviewing witnesses.
Five associates and Hardin also spent $500 at an upscale Austin restaurant with two people labeled "witness" and "Chief of Staff." Most witnesses' names, and those of others on the bill, are blacked

Your Cage Match champion is revealed: Inigo Montoya (823) vs. Gandalf (531)
Cold steel: That's what it comes to when it's all said and done. Magic your way out of a sucking chest wound. Pray to your fell demon princes to staunch the flow of your life's blood spraying from the place where your hand used to be. Go ahead. I'll wait here.
Even the mighty edicts of the gods themselves fall short of the sword's undeniable truth: This is death, and when the blade leaves the sheath the dying times begin.
One swordsman stands where the magicians, monsters and gods once fought: Inigo Montoya. Let's follow the trail of blood that the man left on his path to victory.
Montoya met Medea on the field of battle. Steel met magic. Magic lost. It's just as well: all of us must eventually put away childish things, like wishes and pixie dust and the mistaken belief that mystical mumbo jumbo can hold against the will of a trained killer.
Captain Nemo then challenged our swordsman. Even the military genius and technological might of the master of the Nautilus wasn't enough to stop Montoya. Perhaps in death Nemo can find the peace that escaped him in life. Maybe not. In any case, his body has grown cold and we can resign him to the grave.
In the final round, magic returned to bedevil Montoya once more, but this was no mere hedge wizard: It was Gandalf the Grey, and he too was acquainted with the power of steel. Swords clashed and spells were uttered, but in the end only Montoya remained to claim victory.
There he is now: Your champion. Inigo Montoya, master of the blade. We salute you, oh warrior: May your sword edge remain ever sharp and your wine glass be never empty.
The Cage Match is over for another year.

For the first six-plus years of its run, the biggest headlines surrounding "Two and a Half Men," had to do with the show's runaway ratings. Since it premiered in 2003, the CBS comedy has consistently ranked among the most-viewed in all of television. This season alone, the show has averaged approximately 13 million viewers per episode, according to Nielsen ratings. . It would now be fair to say that a good portion of those viewers are also familiar with the show's teen star Angus T. Jones and his plea for viewers to "stop watching" the show he's deemed to be "filth."
But this is far from the first scandal surrounding the show or those who make it, including former lead Charlie Sheen and "Men" creator Chuck Lorre. Remember these?
2009: Charlie Sheen & Brooke Mueller's Christmas 911 call
Sheen's then-wife Brooke Mueller placed a 911 call alleging she'd been the victim of domestic violence. "My husband had me with a knife. I was scared for my life and he threatened me," she said in the recording. Sheen was arrested on domestic violence charges; ultimately, Sheen worked out a plea deal when the case went to court, and was sentenced to rehab, probation, and domestic violence counseling.
2010: Sheen allegedly trashes Plaza Hotel room
Although he'd later call allegations that he flew into an intoxicated rage at New York's Plaza Hotel while vacationing with his family "overblown," the incident was a catalyst for the escalating troubles surrounding the actor -- and the show.
2011: 'Two and a Half Men' shuts down production early
CBS finally halts production weeks ahead of schedule, citing "the totality of Charlie Sheen's statements, conduct and condition."
2011: Lorre's vanity card slams Sheen
In one of Lorre's show-ending vanity cards, the "Men" creator finally got some thoughts off his chest. In a thinly veiled slam of Sheen, he wrote, "I exercise regularly. I eat moderate amounts of healthy food. I make sure to get plenty of rest. I see my doctor once a year and my dentist twice a year. I floss every night. I've had chest x-rays, cardio stress tests, EKG's and colonoscopies. I see a psychologist and have a variety of hobbies to reduce stress. I don't drink. I don't smoke. I don't do drugs. I don't have crazy, reckless sex with strangers. If Charlie Sheen outlives me, I'm gonna be really pissed."
2011: Sheen, 'winning,' speaks of 'tiger blood,' Adonis DNA, the 'Sober Valley Lodge'
No one can explain this one better than Sheen himself. Watch the original interview from TODAY.
2011: Sheen fired from 'Men'
Just weeks after the season's premature end, Warner Bros. Television announced March 7 that "after careful consideration," it had "terminated Charlie Sheen's services on 'Two and a Half Men' effective immediately."
2011: Sheen turns on co-star, calls him 'troll'
In another chapter from the 'don't cross Charlie Sheen' book, the actor accused his former costar Jon Cryer of being a 'turncoat" and a "troll." "Like I said: You're with me, or you're with the trolls," Sheen told E! News March 8. "Obviously he's with the trolls." Cryer took it in stride, joking on "Conan," "I've had to hide the fact that I'm a troll."
2011: Demi Moore, Ashton Kutcher split
The show's new leading man, Ashton Kutcher, was tabloid fodder for months amid rumors that he'd been cheating on wife Demi Moore. On Nov. 17, the two officially split. "It is with great sadness and a heavy heart that I have decided to end my six-year marriage to Ashton," Moore said in a statement.
2012: Show co-creator disses women
In March 2012, "Men" co-creator Lee Aronsohn didn't exactly endear himself to female viewers by announcing that women "make men damaged" and that he wasn't a fan of women-centric shows, saying, "Enough, ladies, I get it. You have periods." He later apologized via Twitter.

For several hours Friday morning it appeared that Utah's senators, Sen. Orrin Hatch and Sen. Mike Lee, had split ways on the debt-ceiling debate roiling through Congress.
However, Hatch's office clarified later in the day that despite comments Hatch made on cable television the six-term senator still remains completely in agreement with Lee on all issues related to raising the debt ceiling before the federal government enters default Aug. 2.
In an interview on Fox Business Network, Hatch told hosts Dagen McDowell and Connell McShane, "I suspect there will be a short-term debt limit lift — and I'm certainly for it."
Throughout 2011, Lee has stayed steadfast in saying he will resort to filibuster tactics if a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution isn't a part of any proposed mechanism for raising the debt ceiling. Lee's Cut, Cap and Balance Act proposed earlier this month would satisfy that criteria.
Thus, Hatch's support of "a short-term debt limit lift" would appear to be at odds with Lee's non-negotiable, Constitutional-amendment-or-filibuster approach. But not so fast, Hatch operatives cautioned, because Hatch remains a steadfast supporter of the cut-cap-balance approach — and they point to comments he made Friday on the Senate floor as proof of Hatch's full fidelity to pursuing a Cut, Cap and Balance solution.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid succeeded Friday in tabling the House's version of Cut, Cap and Balance by a vote along party lines of 51-46. After the vote, Hatch spoke on the Senate floor.
"(People) know what the solution is — Cut, Cap, Balance and a Balanced Budget Amendment to the Constitution," Hatch said. "There will be talk now about moving on. But I am not moving on. Democrats want to write the obituary on this bill and turn to some new plan or framework of the President's. … The people have decided — they want Cut, Cap, Balance and I've told them that the only way I would ever vote to raise the debt ceiling is if it's enacted. The only way."

Mason and Hamlin trapwork parts - 01/28/13 11:44 PM
I am looking for a trapwork part for a 69 Mason & Hamlin Model A. It's the part of the assembly which works the damper pedal. It looks to be made of cast iron. It has the number 65932 stamped into it, which could be a part number. Someone answering email at Mason & Hamlin said they didn't have that part available. Before I take the piece to a local welder for evaluation I thought I would ask here in case one of you can advise me where I might find a replacement. I will attempt to link an image here. Thanks!

Story Highlights
- Magnussen wins again at Snetterton
- Carlin drivers 1-2 in feature race
- Nasr retains points lead
At Snetterton this afternoon the seemingly invincible progress of Felipe Nasr (Carlin) was temporarily halted when Kevin Magnussen (Carlin) again snatched victory from the Brazilian whose weekend rapidly went downhill from there. Second placed was Carlos Huertas (Carlin) with Riki Christodoulou (Hitech Racing) keeping his campaign to retain his place in the team on track with a fine 3rd place despite his lack of budget. The Rookie Class was back to normal in the hands of Bart Hylkema (T-Sport).
The race got off to a dramatic start with Rupert Svendsen-Cook (Carlin) having to start from the pitlane. The VW engine had developed an awful misfire and nothing seemed to be curing it. With minutes to go the Carlin team were swarming all over the stricken car and eventually were able to send Rupert out just as the race was about to start. As he sat and fumed at the pit exit, Nasr got away well at the front with Magnussen slotting in behind him, but issues developed further back when Hywel Lloyd (Sino Vision Racing) and William Buller (Fortec Motorsport) clashed before they even made it to the first corner, Buller ending up in the barriers. An aggrieved Lloyd dragged his car round to the pits for repairs to the nose of his Dallara and would rejoin just behind Svendsen-Cook. He was assisted in his pursuit of the pack because the Safety Car had been deployed while Buller was removed to a place of safety.
As they settled in behind the Safety Car the order was Nasr, from Magnussen and Christodoulou, who had benefitted from Svendsen-Cook's abrupt disappearance, while Huertas was 4th, ahead of Jazeman Jaafar (Carlin), Harry Tincknell (Fortec Motorsport), Pietro Fantin (Hitech Racing), Pipo Derani (Double R Racing), Scott Pye (Double R Racing) and Menasheh Idafar (T-Sport). Yann Cunha (T-Sport) was 11th, heading up Lucas Foresti (Fortec Motorsport), Fahmi Ilyas (Fortec Motorsport), Adderly Fong (Sino Vision Racing), Jack Harvey (Carlin), Kotaro Sakurai (Hitech Racing) who was leading the Rookie Class, Hylkema and Svendsen-Cook. Lloyd would quickly join the latter at the back of the field during the two laps they all spent bottled up behind the Safety Car. As the lights went out to indicate the restart, Tincknell ran wide at Coram before they even got to the line, but was able to recover, albeit several places further back in 9th as a result. And the restart was also the point when it all started to go pear-shaped for Nasr. After backing the pack up so far as to lose sight of the Safety Car completely, at the restart Magnussen pulled the same stunt as he had on Saturday and simply drove round the outside of Nasr at Riches to claim the lead and almost immediately start to break away. As the odd spot of rain dotted the track, Nasr started to fall away and soon found he had Huertas on his tail, the Colombian having got the drop on Christodoulou at the restart.
Meanwhile, the red mist enveloping Svendsen-Cook was clearly still in place, judging by the fastest lap of the race that he promptly set. Ahead of him all was in flux too with Idafar passing Tincknell too in the aftermath of the wobbly moment at Coram. In the Rookie Class Sakurai was still in the lead, aided by the fact that Hylkema had given way to both Svendsen-Cook and Lloyd as they both fought to salvage something from the wreck of their hopes. He may well have figured it was safer to let them go before setting about the Japanese himself.
At the front though, Magnussen was pushing on relentlessly, himself setting a new fastest lap, only to have Nasr respond with one of his own. Magnussen was faster in the middle sector each time, but Nasr was better in the other two. However, the Brazilian was now under investigation by the stewards for his actions at the restart and there was worse to come. From being able to match Magnussen's pace, he suddenly started to lose pace, and Huertas was able to catch up to him.
While Nasr was struggling, Svendsen-Cook was up to 15th having passed Sakurai, and Lloyd was looking for his chance to follow through. As soon as they were both gone, Hylkema started to reel the Japanese in and was soon right with him. Ahead of them Idafar was still 9th but now had Tincknell and Foresti lurking very close.
Lloyd was able to gain another place when Ilyas ran very wide at Oggies, but really all eyes were on Magnussen. By the end of lap 8 he had opened to gap to over 2 seconds, and set another fastest lap into the bargain. He did it again over the next two laps and was beginning to look unstoppable. Someone had to be. Idafar certainly wasn't, pitting at the end of lap 8 with a misfire that had T-Sport swarming all over his car before they sent him back out, the VW still sounding very rough indeed. If he could squeeze enough out of it, he might at least get a point for fastest lap, though he would have to go some to beat Magnussen's time. The Bahraini's unscheduled stop also handed Foresti an unexpected bonus by promoting him into the points despite an awful qualifying session where he managed to rip the floor off the car early on and never recovered. Luck seemed to be on his side this time.
At the midway point, Hylkema finally came round ahead of Sakurai, a long way ahead, which suggested something untoward might have happened out in the scenery. The lead battle was getting interesting too, as Nasr lost 2nd to Huertas, the Colombian diving up the inside to go through. Nasr didn't seem to have an answer to what had just happened, and it looked as if he was in trouble. That suspicion was reinforced when Carlin started readying tyres. Questioning revealed that the series leader had picked up a slow puncture and was going to have to pit. It wasn't long before Christodoulou was past, and then Jaafar and Fantin were past as well. Nasr was 6th and going through Riches he was passed by Derani as well. A corner later and Tincknell was looking for a way past as well. Just as the erstwhile leader finally pitted, his team manager was called to Race Control, presumably to learn the outcome of the investigation into the restart. It wasn't looking good for Nasr. The team changed the front right tyre but then kept him in the pit lane to allow the pack to go past so he could go out in pursuit of the fastest lap. That meant there were four fast drivers out there all with the same thought in their heads. A further change to the top ten, meanwhile, saw Jaafar snatch 4th from Fantin, the Malaysian's weekend finally improving. It was more than could be said for Nasr. The officials were now preparing the black flag and it didn't take much guessing to figure out who it was for. Nasr had been awarded a drive through penalty just to complete his less than perfect afternoon. He promptly came in and got it over with and then shot back out to see just how fast he could go.
And just as it looked as if the race had settled down, Sakurai went off at Oggies. He survived and carried on, but he was a long way behind now. In fact it would take long for Nasr to get ahead of him on the road and in the race order, and that despite two stops for Nasr. Mind you, the speed Nasr was finding meant that wasn't too surprising. He had clear track ahead of him and only one mission now. He was determined and it showed. Meanwhile Harvey was taking a good hard look at Fong for 11th right now, probably because he had Svendsen-Cook and Lloyd right behind him and the mood they were in that wasn't a comfortable situation to be in. Ahead of them Tincknell was still a bit wild, locking up at Oggies and getting very sideways, though he seemed able to keep it together enough not to lose any ground.
While Magnussen pushed on towards the flag, Nasr finally got his fastest lap on lap 18. It was slower than his Saturday lap record though, in a time of 1:40.171, so there was more to come. A lap later come it did, and on lap 20 he did it again, demolishing the lap record with a 1:39.933 with best times in all three sectors. No one else got near that and so he scored another point, ensuring that his record of scoring points in every round so far is still intact. Only Huertas has been able to do the same and his performances have not been as consistent which is why Nasr still leads the series by a healthy margin.
Magnussen came home a delighted winner despite a last gasp charge by Huertas, with Christodoulou 3rd from Jaafar, Fantin, Derani, Pye, Tincknell, Foresti and Cunha. 11th went to Fong, ahead of Harvey, Svendsen-Cook, Lloyd, Ilyas, Hylkema, Nasr, Sakurai and Idafar, who was only two laps down at the finish.
Fastest laps went to Nasr and Hylkema.
Weather: Cold, overcast, dry.
Next Rounds: Rounds 10-12, June 18th/19th, Brands Hatch, Kent

Janet Chismar | Senior Editor, News & Culture | Tuesday, October 30, 2001
DeMoss has had "a real burden for revival in the church," ever since she was 11 or 12 years old. Then came a more specific burden for women. "I have really prayed that the Lord would use 'Revive Our Hearts' as a vehicle to raise up women who have experienced personal revival, and then would be instruments of revival in their homes, in their churches, in their communities."
Who is this woman with such lofty goals? Since 1980, DeMoss has served as director of publications and women's ministries and editor of "Spirit of Revival" magazine for Life Action Ministries. She has conducted "Revive Our Hearts" conferences for women throughout the United States and has been a guest on numerous radio programs. DeMoss is the author of "A Place Of Quiet Rest" and "Lies Women Believe: And The Truth That Sets Them Free."
A native of Philadelphia, DeMoss was raised in a family deeply committed to Christ and to the mission of world evangelization. She has walked with the Lord for many years. In fact her very first memory is that of trusting Christ as her savior.
"That was at the age of 4, and by the time I was 6 or 7, I knew that God had His hand on my life and had set me apart for service," says DeMoss. "Of course, I had no idea what that would mean. I just knew that my life was consecrated to the Lord for his purposes. There really was no pressure from my parents; they, of course, wanted us to be fully devoted to the Lord. But they did not pressure us in terms of vocational ministry."
DeMoss says she never had any question or doubt that she would engage in full-time Christian work. "I actually started teaching my first Sunday school class to my friends when I was 8 years old. More or less since then, I have just loved ministering the Word. To me it's been the highest and holiest calling for my life ... to be set apart for the Lord in that way. I consider ministering an incredible privilege."
The call has meant a life of singleness for DeMoss, at least for now. "I have always had a pretty strong sense of being set apart to serve as a single. It wasn't such a difficult surrender for me. It doesn't mean there aren't moments of thinking this is hard, but every married woman has that too. For me, I have had the sense that, as long as I was single, it was for the purpose of being set apart for a unique sort of ministry."
DeMoss graduated from the University of Southern California with a degree in piano performance. After completing college, she served on the staff of a large local church in the area of children's ministries.
For more than 20 years, she has communicated her burden for both personal and corporate revival in conferences and retreats throughout North America and abroad. In the conference setting, she came in contact with women who have very real and deep hurts, issues and struggles.
She now brings that wealth of experience to "Revive Our Hearts." DeMoss says she believes strongly in "the power of the Word, power of the truth, power of the gospel, power of the spirit - not to solve all our problems but to give us a direction and perspective in the midst of problems."
Doing the show is not without challenges. The broadcast has been added to a year when DeMoss already had a fully booked schedule. "It has been rigorous," she admits, "but for me, unquestionably the biggest challenge has been to keep priorities in terms of my walk with the Lord. The busyness and the demands have increased exponentially, so the temptation then is to take shortcuts in my time with the Lord, in the Word, and in prayer, which I can less afford to do now."
DeMoss has worked hard to maintain a quiet heart and personal worship and meditation time, even though the show's "birthing process has been so relentless." She says she thanks the Lord she has good people around her who love her enough to ask the right questions and hold her accountable. "But that's an ongoing daily battle."
When asked about the highlights thus far, DeMoss responds, "There's been so much pent up in my heart, in terms of the Word and applying it to the lives of women, that I feel like now I'm able to have a greater vehicle. Not so much because there are more people exposed, but because there are more opportunities - 260 times a year to be exact - to proclaim truth."

Football: Liberty Christian defeats TCA-Addison
ADDISON - Jared Lawson and Brett Metzler combined for 355 yards and three rushing touchdowns as Liberty Christian cruised to a 33-21 victory over TCA-Addison at Tom Landry Stadium on Friday night.
Lawson piled up 233 yards and two scores on 18 carries, and Metzler added 122 yards on 14 carries and another score for playoff-bound Liberty (7-2, 4-2).
Despite the loss, TCA-Addison (2-7, 2-3) earned a playoff berth when Plano John Paul II lost. Tanner Snow provided the bulk of the TCA-Addison offense, rushing for 145 yards and a touchdown on 25 carries.
Liberty took the lead for good at 14-7 with 33.6 seconds left in the first half when Rylee Brown caught a 3-yard scoring pass in the corner of the end zone from Josh Cousins. The touchdown was set up by a 41-yard run by Metzler that took the Warriors to the Trojans' 15. Liberty began the drive at its own 41 after Brent McQuirk recovered a fumble on a fake punt by TCA.
TCA-Addison tried to mount a rally in the fourth quarter, but two of its four possessions ended with the ball turned over on downs.
The Warriors started their first possession of the second half at the TCA 49 and quickly drove down the field, with Lawson breaking off a 20-yard run that set up an 11-yard touchdown pass from Cousins to Caden Compton to give Liberty a 20-7 edge.
Lawson put Liberty on the board in the second quarter with an 18-yard run up the middle that capped a nine-play, 68-yard drive and tied the score at 7. The Warriors converted a fourth down on the drive.
Liberty's offense had scoring chances go awry on its first two drives.
A 42-yard field goal attempt by Dakotah Jesel was blocked by TCA's Kyle Cox to end Liberty's first drive. When it got the ball back, a 73-yard scoring run by Lawson was negated by an illegal block in the back, and the Warriors were forced to punt.
The Warrior defense limited TCA to 41 yards and three first downs in the first half, but a short punt gave TCA the ball at Liberty's 38, and five plays later Snow ran 9 yards for the game's first score.

Here at Farnborough International Airshow, Russia's Irkut is demonstrating its Yakovlev Yak-130 combat trainer. Although the aircraft has participated in various air shows before, this time it represents a version of the jet already in service with the Russian and Algerian air forces.
The program began back in the late 1980s and first flight occurred in April 1996. Since then the two-seat Yak-130 has met and overcome numerous challenges, and has gradually evolved into a highly potent and truly versatile platform able to play many modern air force roles.
Last month, Russia's Aviation Center for Crew Training at Borisoglebsk reported that it had commenced a program of preparation of the country's air force pilots using the Yak-130 in the role of lead-in fighter trainer (Lift). Although the Russian air force formally pronounced the Yak-130 operational in December 2009, additional weapons-firing tests, and the preparation of various techniques and manuals by the Combat Usage and Crew Re-Training Center at Lipetsk air force base, took two more years to complete.
Five Yak-130s arrived at Borisoglebsk in April 2011, and preparation of the syllabus commenced. According to the air force, the expected arrival of seven more aircraft this summer will enable it to complete the formation of a full-strength training squadron.
The center's senior students are now flying the new type as a final part of their qualification process. "This aircraft is easy to handle, and has a big future ahead of it," said Victor Lyakhov, commander of the Borisoglebsk center. "In addition to the primary combat training role, the Yak-130 can perform missions as an attack aircraft, a fighter and a tactical bomber."
Flying Computer
Russian air force officers refer to the Yak-130 as the "flying computer" because of its KSU-130 re-programmable fly-by-wire flight control system, which is able to replicate the behavior of various combat jets. In particular, Borisoglebsk will prepare pilots for flying the Sukhoi Su-34 interdiction fighter and Su-25 attack aircraft. In the primary trainer role, the Yak-130 replaces the Czech Let L-39, which has been the mainstay of Russia and former Soviet states since the early 1970s.
Irkut (Hall 1 Stand E8) offers the Yak-130 as part of a "fully integrated training system" that also includes interactive computer classes, procedural and full-flight simulators and Yak-52M/Yak-152 light piston airplanes. Until a Yak-130 full-flight simulator is installed at Borisoglebsk, the students are using a simulator based at Irkutsk, where Irkut runs a training and in-type qualification center for foreign pilots.
Last year Russia's state arms export agency, Rosoboronexport, delivered 16 customized Yak-130s to Algeria, along with the last eight Su-30MKA fighters (out of 44 ordered). As part of the contract, Irkut trained about 150 Algerian air force pilots to operate both types.
First Computer-aided Design
The Yak-130 is the first military aircraft developed from scratch in Russia with extensive use of computer-aided technologies. It belongs to the fourth generation of combat jets and features open-architecture avionics on the MIL-STD-1553B databus and embedded simulation.
In addition to three multi-function displays, as in the rear cockpit, the forward one additionally has a head-up display similar to that in use in MiG-29/Su-27 fighters. Fly-by-wire technologies provide for carefree handling, reducing pilot workload.
The airframe is made largely of aluminum-magnesium-lithium alloys and also titanium, which Irkut claims makes it weight-efficient without use of composites. Selection of materials was dictated by the customer requirements for simple and low-cost maintenance and repairs, as well as "away-from-main-base" combat deployments in tough climatic conditions. The Yak-130 can operate from semi-prepared airfields, relying on a system of air intakes and channels designed to prevent damage to the engine by foreign objects during takeoff and landing.
In "clean" configuration (that is, without weapons or other external equipment), with full tanks, the Yak-130 has a maximum takeoff weight (mtow) of 15,984 pounds. For combat deployment, mtow is 22,686 pounds. Standard fuel capacity of 3,748 pounds provides for a range of 864 nm. A pair of 992-pound fuel tanks on wing pylons extends the range to 1,134 nm.
The aircraft can carry 6,614 pounds of weapons on nine pylons. This may include a 23-mm twin-barrel cannon pod on the central hardpoint and a combination of dummy rockets/bombs and precision-guided munitions (PGMs) on wing pylons.
Highly Agile
Although subsonic (Mach 0.93), the Yak-130 is highly agile (with an angle of attack up to 35 degrees) and maneuverable (up to +8g). It can climb to 30,000 feet in three minutes.
A high power-to-weight ratio (0.7) and advanced aerodynamic configuration with moderately swept wings smoothly blended into large fuselage root extensions allow the Yak-130 to have more than a 200-fps climb rate at 15,000 feet. This enables its use as interceptor armed with Vympel R-73E infrared air-to-air missiles, for which the pilots can designate targets using helmet-mounted sights.
In 2005, the Russian defense ministry ordered the initial batch of 12 Yak-130s. Deliveries from the Sokol plant in Nizhny Novogorod commenced in 2008 and were completed in March 2011. In November 2011, the ministry came up with another order for 55 Yak-130s with an option for 10 more. The respective contract went to another maker, Irkut, which by that time had completed 16 such aircraft for Algeria.
Irkut president Alexei Fedorov has estimated the Yak-130 delivery rate at 250 units "in the middle term" and believes the type can compete for a quarter of the world's market for advanced jet trainers, estimated at 2,500 units. In his view, the Yak-130 is "a worthy addition" to the Sukhoi Su-30MK twin-seat multirole fighter, which has been Irkut's cash cow since 1996.
Bangladesh is reportedly negotiating for 10 Yak-130s in a prospective deal through Rosoboronexport that would likely be backed by Russian government credits. Syria has signed for the Yak-130, but the status of this order is unconfirmed. During the deposed regime of Muammar Gaddafi, Libya also ordered the Russian trainer but this contract is understood to have been canceled.
The Russian air force is expected to place additional orders for special variants of the Yak-130, including some for an aerobatic display team. The service has the Russian Knights team flying Su-27s and the Strizhy team in MiG-29s, but supersonic fighters are rather costly in that role.
Ground-attack Variant
Now Yakovlev is also working on a dedicated ground-attack variant of the Yak-130. It will differ from the baseline combat trainer in having a larger nose housing a multifunctional radar, an armor-protected pilot cockpit for one crew member instead of two and higher-power engines each developing 6,173 pounds of thrust compared to 5,511 pounds for the current production Ivchenko-Progress AI222-25. The industrial team behind the project also hopes to sell a dedicated trainer version to the Russian and Indian navies.
In a recent press briefing, former Russian air force commander Alexander Zelin and current defense ministry advisor Anatoly Serdyukov said that the air force needs a new type of ground-attack aircraft and that provision has been made for this in the 2011-2020 arms procurement plan. The new aircraft would have stealth characteristics, be capable of operating from short runways and be equipped with an advanced radar.
Irkut is proposing a version of the Yak-130 for this role. Zelin said that while the aircraft has its strengths, it could be found wanting with weaknesses such as insufficient protection for the pilot from ground fire.
In this market Irkut faces strong competition from Sukhoi, which has been urging the defense ministry to restart production of the Su-25 family of aircraft at the UUAZ helicopter plant in Ulan-Ude. This enterprise specializes in production of the highly successful and popular Mil Mi-17 series of helicopters, but has retained manufacturing jigs for the Su-25UB twin-seat operational trainer and its derivatives (Su-25UBK, Su-25T and Su-39). These types were in limited production in Ulan-Ude at the turn of the century.
The Yak's strongpoint is Irkut's capacity to produce 50 Yak-130s a year, Alexander Veprev, general manager at Irkut's IAZ plant, told AIN. He added that there is a provision to increase this to 60 units if demand proves high enough, in addition to which Sokol could add up to 10 airframes a year.

In this highly polarized political climate Democrats and Republicans can't even agree about food.
Democrats are the party of bagels (34%) and croissants (32%) while Republicans prefer to eat donuts (35%).
Democrats like KFC better than Chick Fil A (39/18) while Republicans take Chick Fil A over KFC by a 48/29 spread.
Democrats are cool with vegans (a 48/22 favorability rating) while GOP voters have a negative opinion of them (31/41).
Democrats prefer regular soda (47/31) while Republicans prefer diet (42/34).
And while Republicans narrowly believe that Olive Garden constitutes 'a quality source of authentic ethnic food' (43/41), Democrats (41/44) think it does not.
There are plenty of food issues where Democrats and Republicans do see eye to eye though:
-Overall 40% of Americans have a positive opinion of fast food to 49% who view it negatively. Democrats and Republicans both come in at 41/50 on their general opinion toward fast food.
-52% of Americans say that dinner is their favorite meal of the day. 29% go for breakfast, and lunch brings up the rear at 11%. Democrats and Republicans both strongly back dinner.
-Coke beats out Pepsi 43/35 in the soft drink wars, drawing support from both Republicans (47/33) and Democrats (44/37).
-And there's a strong sentiment from voters crossing demographic lines that they'd rather have a coke than a beer (57/30).
There's mixed news on the fast food burger front. Burger King wins best honors with 22% to 19% for Wendy's and 15% for McDonald's. McDonald's with 22% takes the dubious least favorite prize with 22% to 16% for Hardee's and 15% for both Burger King and Jack in the Box. But the news isn't all bad for McDonald's- in a hypothetical Presidential race Ronald McDonald would beat out the Burger King 36/22.
We also found that only 21% of Americans consider themselves to be obese. Last year the CDC estimated that almost 36% of Americans are actually obese, and it seems possible that the lack of self awareness among people who are obsese could help to explain why so many more people are than think they are.
A few final notes from the poll:
-49% of Americans have a favorable opinion of vegetarians to 22% with a negative one. For vegans it's a 38/30 spread.
-Overall 13% of the people we surveyed consider themselves to be either vegetarians (6%) or vegans (7%).
-Americans narrowly prefer pancakes (33%) over french toast (30%) with waffles finishing well back at 22%.
We'll have more from the food poll tomorrow.

An exam cannot be rescheduled so any appointments should be arranged for outside of the summer exam dates or on days when you/your child do not have an exam. You will be given your exam dates in January i.e. over 3 months before your first exam so you will have plenty of forewarning of the dates which are relevant to you/your child.
What to do if you are late to an exam
- Report immediately to a member of staff as soon as you come onto site.
- Stay with a member of staff until a decision is made about whether you are too late to take the exam. This is EXTREMELY important.
- An exam cannot be rescheduled regardless of the reason so any appointments should be arranged for dates outside of the exam season/on a day when you do not have an exam or either before or after the school day.
Absence from examinations
- If you experience difficulties during the exam period (e.g. illness, injury, personal problems) please inform the Exams Office at the earliest possible point so we can help or advise you.
- Only in 'exceptional circumstances' are candidates allowed special consideration for absence from any part of an exam. It is essential that medical or other appropriate evidence is obtained on the day (signed be a medical professional) by the candidate or parent/carer and given to the Exams Manager without delay. This is in all cases where an application is to be made for special consideration.
- For the award of a grade by special consideration, where a student misses part of an exam through illness or personal misfortune, a minimum of 35% of the examination (including controlled assessments) must have been completed.
- Parents and candidates are reminded that the school will require payment of entry fees (usually about £30.00 per subject) should a candidate fail to attend an exam without good reason and without informing the school beforehand.
- Please note that misreading the timetable or a family holiday will not be accepted as a satisfactory explanation of absence.
Accidents and Injuries
Breaks and Strains
You cannot perform at your best if you are in pain or cannot write for yourself so the best advice is NOT to do anything which has the potential to result in an injury. However, if the lure of the skate park or the BMX track is more than you can resist and the worst DOES happen then make sure you advise the school as soon as practically possible (ask for the Exams Manager or for Student Support Services)
You will normally be offered the use of a word processor and (possibly) extra time if appropriate.
In extreme cases only it might be necessary to arrange for someone to scribe for you BUT it requires a different skill to dictate your answers than it does to write them yourself so we would try to avoid this route if at all possible.
A scribe can ONLY write down what you tell them to; this ideally includes spelling and punctuation. They can draw diagrams but, again, only what you have specifically instructed them to do. They cannot interpret, correct or embellish your work and the exam board will be advised what level of assistance they have given you.
Stomach Upsets and/or Sickness
Provided you are well enough to come in (there should be a period of at least 24 hours without any vomiting or diarrhoea) then there is no reason why you should not take your exam. If you are a little anxious then please speak confidentially to the Exams Manager and appropriate arrangements will be made for you.
Emergency Procedures
- If the fire alarm sounds during an exam the Invigilators will tell you what to do.
- Don't panic.
- If you have to evacuate the room you will be asked to leave in silence and in the order in which you are sitting.
- If you are doing an onscreen test you will be instructed to SAVE your work before leaving your workstation.
- Leave everything on your desk.
- You will be escorted to a designated assembly point. This is NOT the normal assembly areas because you will not be permitted to meet up with students who are not taking the exam.
- Follow the Invigilators instructions at all times.
- You must not attempt to communicate with anyone else during the evacuation.
- When you return to the exam room do not start writing until the Invigilator instructs you.
- You will be allowed the full working time for the exam and a report will be sent to the awarding body detailing the incident.
- If candidates talk during an evacuation then they risk disqualification of their own paper and the paper of any student with whom they communicate.
If you have any queries or questions then please contact the THS Exams Office staff:

If you're a woman, the most important thing you should know about heart disease is this: You don't need gray hair to get itor die from it.
It's true that heart disease primarily kills women 65 and older. In fact, it's the No. 1 cause of death for American women in that age group. However, the disease is also the second leading cause of death among women 45 to 64 years old and the third among women 25 to 44 years old, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
That's why it's crucial to protect your heart no matter how many birthdays you've celebrated. The CDC and the American Heart Association recommend that you:
Choose a heart-healthy diet. Eat mostly fruits, vegetables, low-fat dairy and whole-grain foods, such as brown rice and whole-grain breads. Heart-smart protein options include lean meats, fish and beans.
