LIBYA: Evacuations continue amidst fighting
TitleLIBYA: Evacuations continue amidst fighting
Fighting in Misrata on 26 and 27 April 2011 delayed ships carrying humanitarian aid from docking. Although shelling continues to cause widespread destruction in the port area, humanitarian aid was still delivered and around 1,000 people were evacuated by an International Organization for Migration (IOM)-chartered ship on 27 April arriving in Benghazi the next morning.
Over 11,000 people have been evacuated from Misrata thus far, and the United Nations Humanitarian Air Service is scheduled to begin evacuation service on 1 May with initial routing of Malta-Cairo-Benghazi-Malta twice a week on Sunday and Thursday.
On 27 April, a United Nations International Commission of Inquiry fact-finding mission arrived in Tripoli to look into reports of human rights violations by the Libyan government, including civilian casualties and indiscriminate bombing in civilian areas. Over 630,000 people have now fled Libya since the beginning of the conflict, with about 18,500 Libyans crossing into Tunisia from the Nafusa Mountains region where fighting continues.
As part of the humanitarian response, the World Food Programme has distributed food in the east, reaching some 200,000 beneficiaries. However, there is still concern about access to populations in the Nafusa Mountains region in light of anecdotal reports of urgent food requirements in the west. International Medical Corps delivered medical supplies to Nalut Hospital in western Libya on 26 April. Three rockets were fired nearby in neighbouring Zintan causing damage, but due to the security situation casualties have been unable to access medical services outside Zintan.
United Nations Humanitarian Coordinator for Libya Panos Moumtzis arrived in Cairo on 26 April and will visit the Tunisia-Libya border on 29 April and Tripoli on 30 April. The humanitarian community is seeking access to Misrata and Zintan for independent humanitarian assessments.
According to the Financial Tracking Services, the $310 million Flash Appeal for the Libyan Crisis is only funded at about 42.6 per cent.

There are no Upcoming Shows listed for this comedian.
Debbie Praver
Debbie Praver lives in Los Angeles but is always more at home in New York City because in Manhattan people are ready to order when they get to the front of the line. Her impatience combined with her sarcastic wit made stand up comedy her only career option. She has been an invited guest performer at the Las Vegas Comedy Festival, has appeared in several episodes of ABC's hit show "Desperate Housewives", shared the stage with Kathy Griffin in Dennis Hensley's "Screening Party", appears in the movie of "screening party", co-headlined an Armed Forces Entertainment tour and performs regularly at Los Angeles area comedy clubs. Debbie honed her writing skills with Desperate Housewives Creator Marc Cherry and Desperate Housewives Co-executive Producers Joey Murphy and John Pardee. The refinement of her stand up act happened as she studied with the fabulously talented yet brutally honest Improv owner Mark Lonow. She has been published in Los Angeles' Atomica magazine, was a fill in sidekick for Dennis Hensley on his Sirius Out Q radio show and makes appearances on paper in Dennis Hensley's "Misadventures in the 213" and Del Shore's novel "Sordid Lives." Praver spent too many years in Disney costumes including Minnie Mouse, Pinocchio, Sneezy, Grumpy, Dopey, the March Hare (who???............the hare is in Alice in Wonderland), and in a pinch she crouched down to do Donald Duck in a parade. After escaping from the tragic kingdom she toured as the Dance Leader for the media tour of the Broadway musical "Footloose", choreographed many fitness videos (those include Jeff Costa's "Cardio Strip Tease", Denise Austin's "Pilates Matwork", and George Forman's "walk it off with George"), and was the technical choreographer for "the Method workout" series for Fit TV. Debbie received her BA in Physical Education/Exercise Physiology from Cal State University at Long Beach and has multiple group fitness certifications. She can be found teaching all sorts of fitness classes around Los Angeles.

Security software vendor McAfee will acquire SafeBoot for US$350 million in an effort to expand its large-business product line, the company announced this week.
The acquisition of SafeBoot, a security software vendor focusing on encryption and access control, will expand McAfee's risk management services, the company said. SafeBoot focuses on the large-business and mobile security markets.
SafeBoot, a private company based in the Netherlands, will be a "strong complement" to McAfee's existing offerings, McAfee said in a press release. The data protection market is "highly under-penetrated," the company added.
McAfee plans to integrate SafeBoot's encryption products with its Data Loss and ePolicyOrchestrator management products, McAfee said. Encryption products can be targeted toward all sizes of McAfee customers, from individual users to large businesses, McAfee said.
"SafeBoot's industry-leading mobile security solutions address a critical pain point for customers -- the protection of confidential and proprietary information," Dave DeWalt, McAfee's president and CEO, said in a statement. "With the acquisition of SafeBoot, McAfee becomes a leader in the fast-growing US$1 billion encryption market, and we will be able to offer a complete data protection solution that combines SafeBoot's device, full-disk and content encryption with McAfee's data loss prevention solutions."
Following the deal's closing, SafeBoot's technologies and McAfee's Data Loss Prevention solutions will become the foundation for a new Data Protection product business unit, McAfee said.
SafeBoot is the encryption vendor to more than 4,200 customers, including more than 150 listed in the Fortune 500. About 47 percent of its customer base is in Europe, the Middle East and Asia, 29 percent in North America, and 23 percent in the Asia-Pacific region.
The SafeBoot Data Protection Suite enables users to encrypt individual files and folders, as well as the entire local hard drive.
The acquisition will allow McAfee to expand its large-business data protection offerings, as well as pursue untapped opportunities in the small and medium-sized business and consumer markets, McAfee said
The companies expect the acquisition to close in the fourth quarter. The deal is subject to regulatory approval.

Beta Verson of tikzDevice Released!
Want to share your content on R-bloggers? click here if you have a blog, or here if you don't.
The tikzDevice package provides a new graphics device for R which enables direct output of graphics in a LaTeX-friendly way. The device output consists of files containing instructions for the TikZ graphics language and may be imported directly into LaTeX documents using the
\input{} command.
The beta version of tikzDevice is now available here.
An additional location for downloading source tarballs and windows binaries is here.
There are many significant improvements compared to the alpha version:
- Rd documentation
- A vignette
- Proper string placement (because of string width and character metric calculations via latex)
- Custom LaTeX headers, footers and typesetting engines
- R-Level Annotation of graphics with TikZ commands (see TeXample for great examples of using TikZ commands)
- ASCII character support only
- No recognition of the R symbol font (i.e. no plotmath symbols)
- A bevy of other quirks and "personality traits" that will make themselves known in time
The device requires a working installation of LaTeX and the TIkZ package in order to function. This is because font metrics are currently calculated through direct calls to the LaTeX compiler. Unfortunately, this results in some significant computational overhead- it may take several seconds to create a plot that contains a lot of text. In an attempt to offset this behavior, the tikzDevice uses the filehash package to store font metrics that it has already computed. Hopefully the more the device is used, the faster it will be. We suggest reviewing the package vignette, especially the section "R Options That Affect Package Behavior " for more information on how the caching process works.
We think the package is quite usable as it is, but there are surely many bugs that we don't know about. We welcome bug reports at our R-Forge tracker

Enjoyable story of when Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy return to Narnia. Not quite as good as THE LION, THE WITCH, AND THE WARDROBE, but fast-paced and full of action.

Watch "Fareed Zakaria GPS" Sundays at 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. ET on CNN.
From Global Public Square staff
The recent school shooting in Connecticut looked like a tipping point in U.S. public consciousness.
Americans have been asking themselves some tough questions: why does this happen so often and so much more in America than in other countries? What does gun violence say about us as Americans and what measures can we put in place to stop it?
A similar bout of public soul-searching was on display in India recently. Across the country, tens of thousands of people took to the streets to express outrage over the rape and death of one unnamed woman.
The national attention over her death is shedding light on how unsafe Indian women actually are. According to the national crime records bureau, there were more than 24,000 registered rapes in 2011. That's one rape every 22 minutes in India. And those are just the ones we know about. By some accounts, only a tenth of all such crimes in India actually get reported.
Why such a shockingly high rate of violent crime? Indians are debating the reasons.
The reality is this: This is one more example of a government that simply does not deliver. India has a broken public safety system, little to no public surveillance and CCTV systems, and a corrupt police force.
According to the U.N.'s Office on Drugs and Crime, South Asia has one of the lowest ratios of police officers to civilians in the world. It also has among the fewest prosecutors as a percentage of the population.
There could be other factors. India has a demographic crisis. According to its 2011 census, there are only 9 women for every 10 men in urban India. That's one of the worst sex ratios, and that doesn't happen naturally. It happens because tens of thousands of Indians opt for abortions if they know they're having a daughter.
But these conditions are not unique. Some of them exist elsewhere, too. Perhaps, most of all, rape happens so often in India simply because it is allowed to happen. There is a culture of impunity. After 600 rape cases reported in Delhi last year, only one has led to a conviction.
That's why the current set of sustained protests are something of a silver lining.
People are genuinely upset. The rise of India's middle class has activated a powerful civil society. One that is now demanding better government. It did so a year ago regarding corruption.
Now it's asking for basic rights for women. In a way, this is India's Arab Spring. But it needs to sustain itself and to lead to real reform and change. This Indian spring will only work out better than the Arab Spring if its national leaders recognize the need for radical and thorough change in their country.
– India in 2013: Another year of paralysis?
– 'She could have been me' | End culture of rape
– Women's power: A story with a sharp divide
Two Indian soldiers were kidnapped and beheaded (Mutiliated) by Pakistani Army. Why CNN does give any coverage on this?
Only two? That is peanuts with a population of 1,5 Billion useless people. They should have done more.
A gang r-aping nation like India should be vaporized
Padma lakshmi and Fareed Zakariya smell like masala farts
India's "Arab Spring" occurred during the 1940s when they kicked the British Raj out of India.
Thanks to M.A. Jinnah of Pakistan....hindus got their independence !!!
It was no Spring. More like a regression or winter. The countries have switched to more repressive regimes more intolerant of minorities and more backward then ever before.
What on Earth is this about?!! There are no Arabs in India, nothing there has anything to do with the Newton school shooting, Americans are not soul-searching about women's rights in India because it's none of our business! Geez. Farheed, write about whatever you want, but don't try to make irt seem that everything is a global issue.
Pray tell, what has the US media's concoction,"Arab Spring," accomplished thus far for women's rights, universal suffrage and democracy?
I think the Arab Spring analogy just refers to the rising political/social awareness amongst the masses, that up until the last decade was completely disengaged from the political process. The analogy does not equate the amount of political freedom in India to that in the Middle East. For those of you claiming that Fareed Zakaria is anti-India (since he is a Muslim or otherwise), Zakaria is one of the most pro-India international journalists. If you do not believe me go check out the video him interviewing (and sometimes heckling) Pervez Musharraf.
I agree. Mr Zakaria takes great pride of his Indian heritage. But it is not that Mr. Zakaria is a pro-india journalist, he is a true hard core journalist and asks the right questions. In my opinion just because someone is speaking out against the Govt. of India or asking tough questions of it, would not make him anti-India just as if someone is not asking hard questions of the Govt. where it should be asked, would not make him pro-India. I think all Govts. are answerable to its people no matter where they are. If Mr. Zakaria were to ask tough questions of Indian Govt. will certainly not mean that he does not pride in his Indian heritage, which most definitely does.
In the end us women will be forced to wear burqas like Muslims. We are not better than the middle Easters. How can our country praise women in Hinduism, yet hurt them so much.
We are Hindus from India,
And we like to put on the Bindiya,
We are mostly Haris,
But we like to put on the Saris,
Sadly, we are nothing but Bhikaris,
Sadly, we are nothing but Bhikaris,
We take the Americans to Heart,
But get nothing in return except a F@rt,
So we tend to kiss the American @ss,
Again, we get nothing in return except the American gas,
We are nothing but Bhikaris and are Indians No Mas.
Definitely not an indian arab spring. We are not fighting for freedom or liberty both of which we have had for millennia (except briefly when we were ruled by the british). Our democracy (inspite of all its corruption and nepotism) is still better than many so called democracies that the US has helped develop in the middle east and in Pakistan(if you can call that a democracy). Hence not an Arab Spring.. but perhaps an awakening of the soul and rewriting our moral codes on which our society needs to develop further on. So in that respect, we can call it a Male awakening.
Who are we kidding! India is no democracy. All these years after independence, we are still ruled by the one family. With over a billion citizens, dont we have a single capable person other than Rahul Gandhi who can lead our country out of corruption and poverty in the new century?
We are better than a lot of countries , true! But do we want to compare ourselves to the likes of Pakistan? I think not. I look forward to the day we become a true and mature democracy. I look forward to a day when Manmohan Singh can do his job without being a hand puppet of Sonia Gandhi!
You are right in that the true comparison of India is to the likes of Bangladesh.
The real risk in an Indian "Arab Spring" is war with Pakistan when the protests and response turns ugly, which it will.
The problem is that Pakistan has a 3 second strategy to strike and wipe out India.
India has failed as a nation.Does not contribute enough to world prosperity. Darwinism imples implosion of India.

Ubiquitous broadband connections mean that most of us no longer have to wait for online videos to slowly buffer before we can start watching them. That said, it is sometimes nice to be able to download videos for later viewing or convert them for a mobile format.
AllMyTube is a $29 utility for downloading streaming video off websites like VEVO, Vimeo, and YouTube, which can also convert downloaded videos to many device-specific formats.
AllMyTube comes with optional extensions for Firefox, Google Chrome, and Internet Explorer. Installed, the extensions provide a small button above every video you play in the browser. Click the button, pick the resolution you want, and AllMyTube will download the video -- as long as the website is supported, that is. AllMyTube works well with VEVO, Vimeo, and YouTube, but won't help you if you want to grab a video off a non-supported site.
Some videos on YouTube are preceded by a short video ad. When trying to download such a video, AllMyTube virtually clicks the link in the ad, opening up a new tab with the target page for the ad. The video does download, but you find yourself staring at a random promotional page. This confused me for the first couple of times, but once I realised what was happening, I simply closed the extra tab and moved on. Fortunately, most YouTube videos don't have such ads.
If you'd rather not use the included browser extensions, you can also just copy the address of the page containing the video, switch to AllMyTube (or run it), and click "Paste URL." AllMyTube will try to analyse the page you provided and track down the video. This is similar to what free download manager JDownloader does. It works with YouTube pages, but did not work when I tried pasting a URL from another site containing an embedded YouTube video.
Once you have the file, you might want to convert it to another video format. AllMyTube provides a rich and simple conversion interface. It offers a long list of devices, so you may be able to just pick your phone or tablet model from the list and convert the video for perfect viewing on that device. You can also specify encoding settings manually. This is essential, because the list cannot possibly contain every device on the market today. For example, while it contains the Samsung Galaxy S smartphone, it does not contain the Galaxy S II and Galaxy S III smartphones.
AllMyTube is simple to use, and its interface is relatively clean and free of distractions. It would be even better if it could correctly parse pages with embedded videos and gracefully handle in-video ads, but it is useful all the same.

Pick up a handful of Donald Trump's autographed golf galls. Yes, "The Donald" himself actually golfed with these balls. Somehow we don't equate the Celebrity billionaire with a bargain – but at $4.00 each, they're the ultimate souvenir. They make fantastic stocking stuffers and a conversation piece even for the non-golfer in your life.
Next, it's on to the famous Diamond District, just 10 blocks south on W. 47th street, where, literally the streets are lined with diamonds. Even if you're on a budget and can only afford a little sterling silver charm –tshoctkey, be sure to walk from from 5th Avenue to 6th Avenue where you will see emerald cut diamond solitaires the size of ice cubes – something that Liz or Zsa Zsa may have worn. Guaranteed, you will be in awe of the spectacular window displays packed with dazzling diamonds – sometimes over a million dollars worth showcased in just one window.…

Thursdays at 7 pm in the multipurpose room we are beginning a new study titled "Twelve Voices for Truth" which is study of the minor Prophets. This relevant, practical and life changing study is based on a small book by Jack Hayford, and led by Pastor Jim. This is a challenging study which will give many answers to the issues we face today and will lead us into a more dynamic and life changing faith adventure. We learn the truth of a thought by Douglas Rhymes who said, "If our faith is not relevant to our daily life in the world and in the parish, then it is no use; and if we cannot be Christians in our work, in the neighborhood, in our political decisions, then we had better stop being Christians. A piety reserved for Sundays is no message for this age." Join us this summer for a great time of fellowship and study of God's living word.

DVD previews: 'John Dies at the End,' 'Hemingway & Gellhorn,' 'Planet Ocean'
"John Dies at the End" (R, 99 minutes, Magnolia Home Entertainment): This dark comedy is a mash-up of grindhouse gore, film-noir narration and a headache-inducing sci fi premise about a drug that opens a portal to a parallel universe inhabited by evil creatures bent on human destruction. Framed as a series of flashbacks related to a skeptical reporter (Paul Giamatti), "John Dies at the End" is the story of what happens when 20-something slackers Dave (Chase Williamson) and his friend John (Rob Mayes) discover a drug called "soy sauce," which forever alters their senses and perception of reality. It has the kind of hipster humor familiar to fans of "Tim and Eric's Billion Dollar Movie," with a midnight-movie vibe. Adapted by writer-director Don Coscarelli from Jason Pargin's 2007 comic horror novel, "John Dies at the End" is not for everyone. Yet even those who can appreciate its satire of/homage to genre movies may tire of its broad approach. Contains obscenity, violence, gore, and sexual and drug content. Extras: Commentary with Williamson, Mayes, Coscarelli and producer Brad Baruh; deleted scenes; making-of featurette; special effects short; casting sessions; Fangoria interview with Giamatti.
"Hemingway & Gellhorn" (unrated, HBO): Intending to re-create the torrid romance between two of the 20th century's most talented writers, this fanciful but slap-dash movie instead portrays a couple who engaged in a decade or so of grudge sex, using civil wars and populist uprisings as their preferred marital aids. Clive Owen and Nicole Kidman star as Ernest Hemingway and Martha Gellhorn, two people who couldn't get turned on unless guerrilla forces were advancing over a nearby hill. There's also David Strathairn as a haughtily righteous John Dos Passos and Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich as propagandizing filmmaker Joris Ivens. There's plenty of scenery to be gnawed on, and Owen in particular has fun gnawing on it. But "Hemingway & Gellhorn," directed by Philip Kaufman ("The Unbearable Lightness of Being") from a script by Jerry Stahl and Barbara Turner, is overly enamored with its ridiculous sense of sweep. Extras: commentary with Kaufman and editor Walter Murch, and making-of and visual effects featurettes.
"Planet Ocean" (unrated, Universal): This documentary, directed by Yann Arthus-Bertrand and Michael Pitiot, was made with a team of renowned international underwater cinematographers in partnership with OMEGA and with the scientific support of Tara Expeditions. The film aims to explain some of the planet's greatest natural mysteries, while reinforcing how essential it is that mankind learns to live in harmony with the oceans.
Also: "Frontline: The Untouchables: Money, Power and Wall Street" (PBS), "Jackie Robinson: My Story" (2003), "Knuckleball," "The Kick" (2011, Thailand/South Korea), "The Best of Warner Bros. 20 Film Collection: Romance" (22-disc box set from Warner Home Video), "The Sweeney," "Charlie: A Toy Story" (Dove-approved family film), "American Masters Philip Roth: Unmasked" (PBS), "Forbidden Woman," "Earth's Final Hours" (Syfy channel feature), "Tormented" (2011, Japan) and "A Turtle's Tale 2: Sammy's Escape From Paradise."
Television Series: "The Bible" (History channel miniseries), "Dirk Gently" (2010-12, BBC) and "Route 66: The Complete Fourth Season" (1963-64).

A thorough knowledge of the function and structure of proteins is critical for the advancement of biology and the life sciences as well as the development of better drugs, higher–yield crops, and even synthetic bio–fuels. To that end, this reference sheds light on the methods used for protein structure prediction and reveals the key applications of modeled structures. This indispensable book covers the applications of modeled protein structures and unravels the relationship between pure sequence information and three–dimensional structure, which continues to be one of the greatest challenges in molecular biology.
With this resource, readers will find an all–encompassing examination of the problems, methods, tools, servers, databases, and applications of protein structure prediction and they will acquire unique insight into the future applications of the modeled protein structures. The book begins with a thorough introduction to the protein structure prediction problem and is divided into four themes: a background on structure prediction, the prediction of structural elements, tertiary structure prediction, and functional insights. Within those four sections, the following topics are covered:
- Databases and resources that are commonly used for protein structure prediction
- The structure prediction flagship assessment (CASP) and the protein structure initiative (PSI)
- Definitions of recurring substructures and the computational approaches used for solving sequence problems
- Difficulties with contact map prediction and how sophisticated machine learning methods can solve those problems
- Structure prediction methods that rely on homology modeling, threading, and fragment assembly
- Hybrid methods that achieve high–resolution protein structures
- Parts of the protein structure that may be conserved and used to interact with other biomolecules
- How the loop prediction problem can be used for refinement of the modeled structures
- The computational model that detects the differences between protein structure and its modeled mutant
Whether working in the field of bioinformatics or molecular biology research or taking courses in protein modeling, readers will find the content in this book invaluable.

Foote, Julia A.J.
After I went to Boston I was much drawn out in prayer for the sanctification of believers. Notwithstanding the enemy labored by various means to hinder the work of grace, yet the Lord wrought a wonderful change in many.
The mother of my friend received a fresh baptism, and came back into the light, praising the Lord. That the Holy Spirit might keep my dear "Mam" Riley pure until death, was my prayer.
The health of my dear friend, Mrs. Simpson, began rapidly to fail. One morning, in reply to my question as to her health, she said: "Dear sister, I have been in great pain through the night, but you know Jesus said, 'I will never leave thee nor forsake thee.' Praise God, who has been with me in great mercy through the darkness of the night." I remained with her following night, and such calmness, patience and resignation through suffering, I never had witnesser. Toward morning she was more easy, and asked for her husband.
There, in that death-chamber, in the stillness of night, we prayed for that pious and exemplary man, that he might present his body a living sacrifice. He was deeply moved upon by the Holy Spirit, so that he cried aloud for deliverance; but almost on the instant began to doubt, and left the room. His wife requested me to read and talk to her about Jesus, which I did, and she was filled with heavenly joy and shouted aloud: "Oh, the blood, the precious blood of Jesus cleanses me now!"
Her mother, who was sleeping in an adjoining room, was awakened by the noise and came in, saying, as she did so: "This room is filled with the glory of God. Hallelujah! Amen."
As the morning dawned, Mrs. Simpson sank into a quiet slumber, which lasted several hours.
She awoke singing:
"How happy are they who their Saviour obey,
And have laid up their treasure above."
She was comparatively free from pain for several days, though very weak. She talked to all who came to see her of salvation free and
"Oh, for a thousand tongues to sing
my great Redeemer's praise."
She sang with us in a much stronger voice than she had used for many days. As we sang the last verse, She raised herself up in the bed, clapped her hands and cried: "He sets the Prisoner free! Glory! glory! I am free! They have come for me!" She pointed toward the east. Her mother asked her who had come.
She said: "Don't you see the chariot and horses? Glory! glory to the blood!"
She dropped back upon her pillow, and was gone. She had stepped aboard the chariot, which we could not see, but we felt the fire.
While many in the room were weeping, her mother shed not a tear, but shouted, "Glory to God I" Then, with her own hands, she assisted in arranging and preparing the remains for burial. Thus did another sanctified saint enter into eternal life. Though her period of sanctification was short, it was full of precious fruit.

The Strait of Messina – the narrow section of water separating the Italian Peninsula (seen on the right) from Sicily – is featured in this multi-colour ERS-2 composite image.
Located in the Mediterranean Sea, the Strait joins the Tyrrhenian Sea in the north with the Ionian Sea in the south and has a reputation for its hydrological peculiarities – namely whirlpools, strong currents and internal waves.
Throughout history the Strait has received a lot of attention because of its dangerous waters. In Greek mythology, a six-headed monster named Scylla lived on the Italian Peninsula and would pull sailors up and devour them if they came within her grasp, while an all-consuming whirlpool called Charybdis, on the Sicilian side, would suck passersby to their deaths.
In Homer's Odyssey, Odysseus and his crew confronted the two monsters while navigating through the Strait. Emphasizing the dangers of the narrow Strait – 32 kilometres long and from 3 to 16 kilometres wide – it was only possible to avoid one of the monsters by sailing closely to the other. Odysseus navigated his ship through safely, but Scylla managed to catch and devour six of his men.
Currently, the Strait is at the centre of a much-debated topic over whether a bridge should be built to connect Sicily to the peninsula. If built, it would be the longest suspension bridge in the world (3.7 kilometres).
Opponents say the bridge will damage the unique ecosystem of the area. According to the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF), the area around the Strait borders one of the three most important European migration routes for many birds, with some 34,000 birds (comprised of 32 different species) passing through the area in just two months.
The main towns of the Strait are Messina, on the Sicilian side, and Reggio-Calabria on the peninsula side. The two mountain ranges seen in the image are the Monti Peloritani, in Sicily, and the Aspromonte, in Calabria.
Messina and Reggio di Calabria were both founded in the late 8th Century B.C. by the Greeks. Because of their strategic port locations, both cities have suffered numerous foreign invasions. The area was also hit by two major earthquakes in 1783 and 1908; the latter nearly destroyed the entire city of Messina.
The image is composed of three ERS-2 SAR PRI (Precision Radar Image) images acquired on different dates with different colours assigned to each date: red for 13 February 2002; green for 11 August 2004; blue for 5 May 1999.
The image covers a width of 100 kilometres and has a 12.5 metre pixel sampling.

Car left running leads to chase, crash
2 taken into custody after chase in stolen car
Two people were taken into custody after leading officers on a high-speed chase in a car that had just been stolen from its owner.
Car owner Sarah Moore Power said she had left her car running and unattended outside her Independence home, but only for a minute.
"I forgot my lunch and came back inside and wasn't even a minute and a half and I saw my car driving off," she said. "I ran back inside and said, 'Dad, my car is being stolen.'"
Newschopper 9 HD was over the scene as officers tried to stop the driver near Highway 291 and Salisbury Road just before 6:30 a.m. The driver led officers on a chase for more than 20 minutes, at time driving the wrong way and crashing into others. The chase finally ended when the driver crashed into a ditch in Danny Lowery's back yard near R.D. Mize and East Eureka roads.
"The dogs were howling and then we heard the big thump out here where the car hit," Lowery said.
After a foot chase, the driver and passenger were taken into custody. Lowery said drivers end up in the ditch all the time.
"We've seen a few of them go in the ditch before running from police. The corner, you can't take it 60 mph or you are going to be down and gone," he said.
Power said she's learned a lesson from this. She said she'll have to pay hundreds of dollars for car repairs.
"Just the fact that I get a little bit of restitution out of it and they get what they deserve. They shouldn't have just came up and just picked up someone's car," she said.
She said before this incident, her father's truck was once stolen.

It appears Nick Catone will stay at middleweight for now.
Not long after the New Jersey native told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) that he wants to drop to welterweight, sources close to the promotion today said Catone (8-2 MMA, 2-2 UFC) will stay in the 185-pound division to fight Tomasz Drwal (17-3-1 MMA, 3-2 UFC) at UFC Fight Night 22.
UFC Fight Night 22 is expected to take place Sept. 15 at the Frank Erwin Center in Austin, Texas, and air live on Spike TV, though the promotion has yet to officially announce the event.
The position of Catone vs. Drawl on the fight card is unknown at this time.
Catone, who recently re-united with the Renzo Gracie Fight Team, said he feels he may be giving up size in the middleweight division and was looking to welterweight because he'd rather be a big guy in a smaller class.
"It's definitely going to be a challenge, but if I can make it, why not be one of the bigger guys instead of the average guys?" Catone said.
Catone was recently forced to withdraw from a fight with John Salter at UFC 113 due to a back injury (he was replaced by Canadian Jason MacDonald, who lost to Salter when he broke his leg during the fight). Prior to that, Catone bested Jesse Forbes on points at UFC Fight Night 20. The win reversed a two-fight skid to Mark Munoz and Tim Credeur at UFC 102 and UFC Fight Night 18, respectively.
Catone made his UFC debut in February 2009 with a submission win over Derek Downey at UFC Fight Night 17.
Meanwhile, Drwal's most recent fight snapped a win streak and his leg, literally. The Poland native felt a pop-pop-pop in his knee when his opponent, Rousimar Palhares, cinched a heel hook after he fell on a high kick attempt at UFC 111.
Palhares drew some fire for appearing to hold the lock well beyond Drawl's tapout, though he later apologized for his actions and received a 90-day suspension from the New Jersey State Athletic Control Board.
In the end, though, Drawl's knee was merely sprained, and the fighter recently resumed training. Prior to the setback, the hard-slugging fighter won stoppage victories over Ivan Serati, Mike Ciesnolevicz and Drew McFedries. He made his octagon debut at UFC 75 and lost to Thiago Silva by second-round TKO.

More about vouchers
- What are vouchers?
Vouchers allow organizations to sponsor rides with Uber during the moments that matter most to them. A simple, web-based tool makes creating and managing sponsored rides quick and easy for organizations.
- Where is it currently available?
Vouchers can be used everywhere that Uber is available. With an Uber for Business account, you can create vouchers anytime on the web for your riders to use in over 600 cities around the world, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
- Why should I use vouchers to sponsor rides with Uber?
Vouchers are part of the Uber for Business platform, which means you'll have access to an all-in-one management dashboard for your events. This makes real-time monitoring, editing, and reporting easier for your team.
- What is the cost of using vouchers?
You only pay for the vouchers that are used, within the value limits you set. When setting up a voucher program, you'll see the maximum potential program budget based on the number of vouchers, rides per voucher, and trip amount. That way, you can make sure you're investing only what makes sense for your business.
For the rider, costs are based on standard Uber rates at the time of the booking. If the total cost of a guest ride exceeds the value of the voucher, the guest will pay the difference with their default payment option. As the event creator, you'll never pay for anything in excess of what you've set as the max amount per ride.
- How do I get started?
If you're an existing Uber for Business customer, you can enable vouchers from your Admin Dashboard within the programs tab. Once enabled, you'll be able to create voucher programs immediately.
If your organization isn't on Uber for Business yet, you can create a group account in a few easy steps. Contact us so we can help.
