Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus + More Are 2012's Most Charitable Celebs
Celebs, by virtue of their gigs, have tons of fame and fortune, but many of them never forget to show their support of the less fortunate. DoSomething.Org has named its Top 20 list of Celebs Gone Good for 2012, with Taylor Swift and Miley Cyrus topping the list of the most charitable celebs. Fellow pop stars like Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber, Pink and more were also recognized.
Swift landed at No. 1 on the list. She is continuously generous, even donating $4 million to the Country Music Hall of Fame. In the past, she also donated books to the library in her Pennsylvania hometown -- no, she's not actually originally from Nashville, as some think. We also can't snooze on the fact that she invited a cancer-stricken fan to be her date to an awards gala when she couldn't make his prom!
Cyrus, who recently downplayed any "tweet heat" tiff between herself and America's Sweetheart Swift, landed right behind her on the list. The notorious animal lover has raised awareness for rescues and advocates the adoption of shelter pets from high-kill facilities. She also supports VH1's Save the Music Foundation, Make-A-Wish and the Starkey Hearing Foundation, as well.
Gaga launched her Born This Way Foundation earlier this year, which is aimed at providing support to at-risk youth and helping to raise self-esteem among young people. The Biebs continues his work with Pencils of Promise, and always makes time in his cray cray schedule to visit sick fans in the hospital.
Pink, like Miss Miley, also advocates animal rights issues.
The full list of Celebs Gone Good is below. Notice Drew Brees on that list. While sports fans know him as the quarterback of the New Orleans Saints, Directioners know him as a member of 1DB, aka another incarnation of One Direction. We had to point that out.
Top 20 Celebs Gone Good of 2012:
1. Taylor Swift
2. Miley Cyrus
3. Channing Tatum
4. Lady GaGa
5. Justin Bieber
6. Robin Roberts
7. Pink
8. LeBron James
9. Selena Gomez
10. Ian Somerhalder
11. Jay-Z & Beyonce Knowles
12. George Takei
13. Ben Affleck
14. Andrew Garfield & Emma Stone
15. Ryan Seacrest
16. Demi Lovato
17. Carrie Underwood
18. Olivia Munn
19. Sofia Vergara
20. Drew Brees

And we are in search of fun, attractive and affordable kid-friendly Christmas crafts for giving to family and friends.
I have been mulling over two crafts:
{{THIS}} button wreath by Martha Stewart and {{THIS}} sweet felt tree.
I married the two and came up with some sweet Button Trees for Christmas!
My family is exchanging small and simple gifts this year.
For each tree, Rowan and I chose a few special buttons from my Grandmother's old button tin, which holds a place of honour in my crafty space.
These ornaments will bring together 4 generations of memories (yay!).
Did I mention these are kid friendly, too?!
♥ A variety of buttons, old and/or new, various sizes
♥ Scissors
♥ Embroidery floss, brown is suggested
♥ Needle longer than your tallest intended tree
♥ Alternative: hot glue
♥ Optional: raffia or ribbon
There are no rules! Ideally, you will want to choose 3-4 buttons for the trunk of the tree and then buttons from large to small to create the body of the tree. Do not make your tree taller than the length of your needle!
Once we stacked our buttons to test their shape as a tree, Rowan spread them out in a long line in the desired order.
Things will definitely go smoother if all of your buttons have the same number of holes!
As we were using a mix of new craft buttons and vintage buttons, we didn't have this luxury!
Begin with the trunk, string the buttons together and passing your needle and thread (3-4 strands of floss) up and down through them several times.(This is an adult job unless your kids are 9 or 10+).
I have used white thread here on the sample, but I suggest using a brown as the thread will show on the bottom of the finished tree.
You must run the needle right up and back down the tree, try breaking it up into groups of 3-4 buttons in order to ensure a secure finished ornament~ nothing worse than a string of buttons scattering away!
Alternative: You could use hot glue and glue all the buttons together. Personally I like the 'wiggliness' of the threaded buttons, but to each their own!
Be creative! Use what you have on hand!
We had a number of shank-style buttons which worked perfectly as tree toppers, as we were able to attach them 'standing up' and to choose toppers to suit our various family members.
We used raffia. You could use ribbon, wire hooks, string...
For my mother, we used lots of her mother's buttons:
I think I will make some more for teacher's gifts~ we have some hand shaped buttons to top the trees and thank them for helping hands.
Be sure to link up to this blog and come back to share your finished work! ♥♥

Thank you so much for the directions to create these sweet decorations. I finished my first one & love it - you may see a picture on my facebook :) now I'm getting my neighbor kids involved & we're going to make an entire forest :) using a stretchy piece of gold or silver elastic simplifies it even more and eliminates the need for a needle.

LinkedIn is one of the greatest connector tools out there. But are sales people missing the power behind it?
LinkedIn could be perhaps the greatest connector tool of our lifetime, thus far.
It could quite possibly be the most annoying, too.
On almost a daily basis, I receive a LinkedIn connection from someone I don't know. A few things I typically notice:
- They have some sort of sales characteristic in their title, which isn't the worst thing, considering my business offers solutions for B2B marketing activities.
- They are typically not overly connected through first, second or third degrees to my contacts.
- They have that special sales face that says, "connect with me because I have something glorious to sell you".
On occasion, even with the qualifying "avoid me at all cost" factors, I still click "connect" – figuring more exposure is good. People who are in sales can make great franchisees, so the connection could have some value. Plus maybe, just maybe, they will play the soft sell and not try getting me to take just 10-15 minutes of time to hear what they have to offer.
Most of the time, though, I evaluate the individual and push "reject."
But, when I do allow the connection, I then monitor the follow up:
- Do they immediately send me a message?
- Do they immediately email me because my email address is on my profile?
- Do they call me at the office, telling the person who answers that they "had a call scheduled with me"?
- Or all of the above?
Within the last month, I have had four all of the aboves, 17 immediately send me a message and 50+ emails thanking me for connecting and most of those offer me the chance of a lifetime to take a call with them too.
When any of the above happen, I remove them.
I removed one of them in the last week who then connected with me again the following day, clearly mass messaging as many people as possible.
I get it, though; salespeople are trained that it's a numbers game. But are sales people missing the facts of the power of LinkedIn?
- Connections, emails are sent through LinkedIn's messaging system, which, most likely, connects with your email. When an email comes in from LinkedIn, we, as people, rarely peg this as spam. Thus, most connections, companies and people are evaluated.
- Connections can write content in the form of statuses and stories. This is an easy way to constantly get a message in front of a specific to the audience you are trying sell.
- While the immediate result of sales doesn't come through, the soft, light sale can lead to business, connections and more business through referrals.
So, why are salespeople so pushed to write you right away offering to sell you their service or product?
- They don't know better.
- Someone actually responded to them, so, it's a numbers game – X results for every X attempts.
- They are way under pressure and need this sale.
LinkedIn can connect you with the exact matches in the exact markets you are trying to sell. My preference is the soft sell – from me and by me. Maybe LinkedIn needs to add contact preferences – what you want and how you want it so that the beauty of the tool remains golden.This column is syndicated from 1851 Franchise.

The 7 Deadly Sins of Holiday Cooking
Here are seven bad cooking behaviors you need to avoid so that your holiday meal will be a delight instead of a disaster.
7 Deadly Sins of Holiday Cooking
7 Deadly Sins of Holiday Cooking Recipe
Whether you're a novice or a seasoned cook, there are certain things that should just not be done when you're preparing food for your holiday meal. If you can avoid these seven atrocities, you're guaranteed to have a great meal. We can't, however, do anything about annoying aunts or cranky cousins.
Not Buying Enough Turkey
Don't scrimp on the turkey. If you have turkey leftovers, you can transform those leftovers into new and tasty dishes. A good rule of thumb is to buy 1 pound of turkey per person to allow for seconds and leftovers. So if you're having 8 guests for Thanksgiving, you'll need an 8-pound bird.
Not Thawing the Turkey in Time
Not Thawing the Turkey in Time Tout
You need to start thinking about thawing that turkey several days before you're ready to cook it. The best – and safest – defrosting method is to set the bird in a shallow pan in the refrigerator for 24 hours per 5 pounds of turkey. Save room in the refrigerator as this will take several days. The turkey is fully thawed when the thick part of the turkey registers 40 degrees.
Not Using A Meat Thermometer
Not Using A Meat Thermometer Tout
Small and inexpensive, the meat thermometer is one of the most valuable kitchen tools you can own. Using one is the surefire way to make sure that your turkey, beef tenderloin, or pork roast is not overcooked and dry or undercooked and unacceptable.
Burning the Rolls
Before you start cooking for the holidays, check your oven to make sure it's calibrated so that you'll be baking at the correct temperatures. Then follow the time and temperature given in the recipe, but check a few minutes early just in case. Use a kitchen timer so you won't forget that you've got something in the oven.
Making Dressing That is Too Dry or Too Gummy
Making Dressing That is Too Dry or Too Gummy Recipe
Dressing preferences are highly personal and people feel quite strongly about which type they prefer. The best recommendation is to follow the recipe exactly, especially in terms of the amount of liquid that's added. However, if you follow the recipe and think it's too dry, you can always add a little more warm chicken broth and bake just a little bit longer to incorporate the broth. If the dressing is too gummy, you can bake it longer, uncovered, to dry it out a bit.
Serving Lumpy Gravy
One cause of lumpy gravy is directly dumping flour or other thickener into the hot stock or broth. Another is adding broth too quickly into the flour-fat mixture, which can cause clumping or a gluey layer on the bottom of the pan. Hot spots in a large pan can also cause lumps.In any starch-based sauce, the thickener needs to be gradually introduced to the hot liquid. The easiest way involves whisking a flour slurry into the broth mixture, then stirring until the gravy comes together. If you get lumps, pour the gravy through a sieve or strainer, or puree it with an immersion blender or, very carefully, in a regular blender.
Serving Foods at the Wrong Temperature
Serving Foods at the Wrong Temperature Tout
So that you can serve the dressing and green bean casserole hot and the ambrosia chilled, make a game plan and stick to it. Starting a week ahead, make a list of dishes that can be made ahead and frozen or chilled until the big day. Keep writing until every dish is listed leading right up until serving. Use your microwave for reheating some dishes or prepare some menu items in the slow cooker to free up some oven space.

Neo FreeRunner Wifi
From Openmoko
To get wlan working on your Freerunner, you can follow these steps:
1. create and edit a suitable /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf (use your favourite search engine to find the syntax)
2. execute `ifup eth0`
3. execute `wpa_supplicant -ieth0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf -B` (-B for running as daemon)
4. get a IP via dhcp: `udhcpc eth0`
That's it, your wlan should now work!
Known good wpa-supplicant version?
Is the 0.6.3-r1 broken? I don't get anything to work with these instructions via usage of wpa_supplicant, but WEP works via direct interfaces changes (wireless-essid/wireless-key settings).
Sample wpa_supplicant.conf

An alternative way to automate
Add the wpa_supplicant details to /etc/network/interfaces:
iface eth0 inet dhcp wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
Now `ifup eth0` will start up wpa_supplicant and udhcpc for you, and `ifdown eth0` will stop them, in theory at least. In practise udhcpc can time out before wpa_supplicant has finished connecting to the access point, and if udhcpc has failed to get an address ifdown exits without stopping wpa_supplicant and bringing down the interface.
The alternative method seems to work reliably on the FR/ GTA02, I couldn't get the manual method to work when WPA/PSK is involved. Also you must do ifdown usb0 before the ifup eth0. Then you also need to setup the resolv.conf manually as it does not seem to get the dns server from the dhcp server. If the dhcp fails during ifup eth0, then you can run udhcpc eth0 manually it usually gets the dhcp address the second time around.
I use a script called u...
- u
ifdown usb0 ifup eth0 echo nameserver xx.xx.xx.xx >/etc/resolv.conf
This usually works

|Just another Perl shrine
Re: Re: Learning Perl as a First (programming) languageby talexb (Canon)

I agree with you that comp.lang.perl.misc is a bit of a junkyard. It's where programmers who have tried to force their way up the Perl learning curve can post their messes instead of buckling down and doing some reading and hard work.
But I believe Perl is easy to learn because Perl does little things for you like allow you to enter
and get it up and running in no time. Sure, you get '0123456789' as the output, but there were no include files, no compiler or linker to deal with, and no memory management or window management to worry about.
Perl is a very elegant language, but it can also be really gross (e.g., obsfucations) -- but that's OK, at least it's flexible. I programmed in Pascal for a while and wasn't really thrilled every time I had to cast a char to an integer in order to do some math with it, then cast it back to a char. Ugh. Or deal with the nervous nelly compiler errors.
I really can't imagine starting with Java -- it's not my idea of a lightweight language. I find it rather dense, and I spent many years programming in C. Even starting with an OO language is a bit of a jump -- I expect that people want to jump right in and start trying things. Writing clean, Object Oriented code can come later.
I don't think Perl has a bad name -- it has a pretty good reputation. Sure, it may be hard to learn, but then :) I'll take that any day over something as trivial as Pascal.

QIAamp DSP DNA FFPE Tissue Kit
For purification of DNA from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues
The QIAamp DSP FFPE Tissue Kit provides silica-based DNA purification from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue. The QIAamp DSP DNA FFPE Tissue Kit is designed for labs that process FFPE tissues for in vitro diagnostic use.
Buy Products
The QIAamp DSP DNA FFPE Tissue Kit is intended for in vitro diagnostic use.
Product Details
The QIAamp DSP DNA FFPE Tissue Kit uses QIAamp MinElute spin columns for purification of high-quality DNA from FFPE tissue. Genomic DNA is efficiently purified from FFPE tissue sections without overnight incubation. The procedure partially removes formalin crosslinking of released DNA, for improved yield and DNA performance in downstream applications.
The QIAamp DSP DNA FFPE Tissue Kit uses well-established QIAamp MinElute technology for purification of genomic DNA from FFPE tissue. The kit combines the selective binding properties of a silica-based membrane with flexible elution volumes of between 20 and 200 µl.
Specially optimized lysis conditions allow genomic DNA to be efficiently purified from FFPE tissue sections without the need for overnight incubation. Incubation at an elevated temperature after proteinase K digestion partially removes formalin crosslinking of the released DNA, improving yield as well as DNA performance in downstream assays. Note that DNA isolated from FFPE samples is usually of lower molecular weight than DNA from fresh or frozen samples. The degree of fragmentation depends on the type and age of the sample and the conditions used for fixation.
The QIAamp DSP DNA FFPE Tissue Kit uses special lysis conditions to release DNA from tissue sections and to overcome inhibitory effects cause by formalin cross-linking of nucleic acids. The procedure consists of 6 steps — remove paraffin, lyse, heat, bind, wash, and elute (see "Procedure"). Paraffin is dissolved in xylene and removed. The sample is lysed under denaturing conditions, with a short proteinase K digestion. Incubation at 90°C reverses formalin cross-linking. DNA binds to the membrane and contaminants are washed away. DNA is eluted in Buffer ATE and is immediately ready for use in amplification reactions or for storage at –20°C. The simple QIAamp DSP DNA FFPE Tissue Kit procedure is highly suited for simultaneous processing of multiple samples.
The QIAamp DSP DNA FFPE Tissue Kit is specially designed for purifying DNA from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue.

MCMC Garden Perfume Oil
Perfumer Anne McCain studied natural aromatherapy at the Grasse Institute in the south of France and went on to blend her own line of fragrances under her brand MCMC. She mixes and bottles her own fragrances by hand in her Brooklyn studio in small batches and her fragrances reflect memories and moments and therefore are layered and deep.
The Garden fragrance is inspired by the Ananda Harvest, a group of urban farmers who come together each weekend in upstate New York to teach others how to farm, strengthen the local food movement, and give back to the community. 50% of the proceeds from the sale of the Garden fragrance will go towards the Ananda Harvest. With essential oils of red thyme, myrtle, lavender, lemon and bitter orange, the fragrance wears well on both men and women. Blended into a unique combination of organic jojoba and hemp seed oils, this fragrance is 88% certified organic.

BEIJING, Oct. 8, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- GC-Rise Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd, in which European healthcare venture capital firm INVENTAGES holds a majority stake, was recently listed as one of the Deloitte & Touche's 50 top-performing Chinese high-tech companies which rides on high growth for 2012, the second time the company won the honor after it got the award for the first time in 2011.
Beijing-headquartered GC-Rise, which focuses on women's health in China, was the only pharmaceutical company to receive the award, with most others engaged in software and e-commerce business.
An awards ceremony was held in Beijing on Sept. 20, where GC-Rise's executives shared the company's legacy with participants.
GC-Rise, founded in 2008, has saw rapid increase in revenues over 4 years' expansion, with revenues up 172 percent year-on-year in 2011, and it surged 209 percent at the end of August, 2012, compared with same period of last year.
The Company's rapid growth was backed by booming target market, premium products as well as efficient management team.
The enrollment in the top 50 by Deloitte shows that GC-Rise's focus on the women's niche market has born fruits, with growth momentum gathering pace despite of the country's economic slow-down.
About Deloitte & Touche's Top 50
The rating of the top 50 Chinese companies initiated by Deloitte & Touche, which focuses on high-tech, media and telecom industries, are based on core criteria of annual operating revenues growth rate over the past three years rather than assets expansion. Those enrolled in the list are qualified to contend for top 500 in Asia Pacific.

A record number of onlookers gathered along the newly re-routed path of the annual Chicago Pride Parade, officials said.
City officials said this year's parade drew a record crowd estimated at 850,000.
Delores Robinson of the Office of Emergency Management gave that figure as the crowds continued to disperse. Last year's attendance was estimated at 750,000. Robinson said no "unusual incidents" had been reported.
The parade kicked off at noon today with Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn at the front of the parade as it began its march from the Uptown neighborhood.
Minutes before the parade began, Emanuel, dressed in khaki pants, a blue gingham shirt and tennis shoes, was speedwalking around, shaking hands with police, posing for pictures with parade goers and greeting the throngs gathered behind metal barriers on Broadway and Montrose Avenue.
The final floats were embarking south down Broadway as the parade began to wrap up.
Though the route was reinvented because of crowding concerns last year, the thousands who lined the street saw that the parade's aesthetic was unchanged.
The procession was the usual mix of politics, commercialism and unabashed sexuality, with politicians leading the parade followed by men in hot pants dancing to techno music, women on loud motorcycles and floats branded with the logos of businesses such as Walgreen's and Chipotle.
Marissa Zesinger of Chicago marched for the first time since coming out of the closet in January. Carrying a sign for the Center on Halsted, Zesinger said it was gratifying to see people, gay and straight, supporting one another.
"It makes you feel not alone," she said.
Parade coordinator Richard Pfeiffer said the event had run smoothly as of 2 p.m. and Chicago police reported no serious disturbances.
Last year, the event was marred by pre-parade vandalism of dozens of floats.
"So far, so good. We just hope the weather holds," Pfeiffer said earlier in the day before gray clouds moved out.
"We'll march rain or shine."
As vendors hawked rainbow flags and observers planted lawn chairs along Broadway, marchers made final embellishments to the floats that were lined along Montrose Avenue.
Instead of stepping off at Halsted Street and Belmont Avenue, as it has for the last 20 years, this year's parade started farther north at Montrose Avenue and Broadway and headed south through the Uptown and Lakeview neighborhoods, wrapping up at Diversey Street and Cannon Drive.
Organizers cut the number of groups in the procession and altered the route to ease the congestion that plagued last year's event, when some 750,000 people turned out.
"Last year, we had some crowd control issues," Pfeiffer said.
The grand marshal is Evan Wolfson. He is founder and president of Freedom to Marry, a national campaign to win gay marriage rights.
Moving the route didn't change the nature of the floats and groups marching, whose causes ranged from politically serious to whimsical or overtly sexual.
Wearing combat boots and camouflage shorts as he practiced twirling a fake wooden rifle, marcher Jason Hess of Chicago said he hoped the parade's revised logistics would make the day a more pleasant experience for everyone.
"It's safer," he said, continuing to practice with the rifle he would carry alongside other members of the Righteously Outrageous Twirling Corps.
This year the community celebrates a year of landmark LGBT civil rights victories.
Over just the past year and a half, civil unions have become legal in Illinois, President Barack Obama has expressed support for same-sex marriage, the military has done away with its "don't ask, don't tell" policy and two lawsuits have been filed challenging the constitutionality of the Illinois law that bans same-sex marriage.
Religious groups were a notable presence toward the front of the queue. American Baptist pastor David Weasley strummed a mandolin on the grass along Montrose Avenue. He was wearing a clergyman's collar and a t-shirt reading "Queer to the World."
Religious groups' presence at the front challenges the perception of faith organizations as intolerant, he said.
"I'm really proud that the faith community is toward the front," Weasley said. "It's a good opportunity to just be really clear about that."
Today's parade wound past Our Lady of Mount Carmel Catholic Church, which officials said has been supportive about being along the route. Organizers considered moving the parade to a 10 a.m. start time, but stuck with noon so Mount Carmel could celebrate Masses and get parishioners in and out before the parade, he said.
The CTA's Belmont station had to be closed five or six times last year because of overcrowding. Organizers hoped the extension of the parade north will disperse crowds among the Addison, Sheridan, Wilson and Lawrence Red Line stops.
The old route formed a "V" shape that trapped residents and emergency vehicles, officials said. The new route allowed for viewers to get to the east side of the route with the help of stationed police officers.

Check out a study of children's attitudes towards animals in Greece.

VOCAL to the rescue!
I first visited the plot of land belonging to Maria in November 2008. There were two separate pens, one for all the dogs and another for cats. The cat pen had 23 cats living inside and also 3 puppies. Maria had gradually collected the animals, some dumped and others found. She was afraid to allow the cats to go outside incase any were poisoned. I was pleased to hear that all but two were neutered and all were vaccinated, the cats looked in reasonable physical health. The pens were of excellent structure with a sound roof and tiled floor, plastic sheeting protected the sides from weather. However I was not happy to see the conditions they lived in, and noted a lot of stress and depression in the cats. There were no toilet trays, the cats and dogs defecated on the tiled floor, and of course the puppies were stepping in it and spreading it everywhere. There was only one large food bowl, no beds, only one place to jump up onto, no toys and no scratching areas. It was a miserable and boring life. However, at this time VOCAL had other serious problems to deal with, we were swamped with work. In addition, I had recently been asked for a help by another Greek lady in Agios Nikolaos who had 50 cats living in her house, in quite appalling conditions. I had to make a choice about which to give priority to, and at that time, I decided to deal with the house first, and come back to Maria's plot in the New Year. I tried to discuss the conditions inside the pen with Maria, including putting in toilet trays but she was adamant they were fine, and assured me that when her house, under construction on the site, was completed and a huge fence built, the cats would be released!
When I returned in February I was shocked to see how the situation had deteriorated with the cat pen. The dogs were in a similarly poor state. The cats were painfully thin, many had bald patches. Blood stained, slimy faeces lay in pools all over the floor. The cats were dying from malnutrition and sickness. There was one small older dog inside with them. We found out that the personal situation of Maria was in a perilous state, her husband was with-holding money, they were separating and she had health problems that involved regular trips back to Athens. She told us that during one of her absences two dogs and one cat had died. We acted immediately. The two un-neutered cats were operated on and the other cats examined by a vet. The faeces tested positive for giardia which was not surprising but nonetheless quite depressing news. Five of the cats were immediately put into quarantine with a VOCAL volunteer, and therapy started for giardia. After contacting my animal welfare colleagues in Germany, we were quickly able to send four of those on to foster homes. I took one cat to quarantine him in my home because his fur was so matted with faeces he could no longer wash himself. His bottom and back legs were red raw.
Alfie, one of the worst of the affected kittens.
Giardia can only be effectively treated with a combination of two drugs, Panacur and Metronadizole. Toilet trays had to be completely emptied at each visit, twice per day, and scrubbed with chlorine and flushed out with scalding water. We had to take all this with us as there was no electricity on site. The tiled floor was scrubbed with water and chlorine. We set up wooden pallets and cardboard boxes lined with newspaper for the cats to use as beds so that they could be replaced daily. The cats love these boxes and as soon as they have filled their bellies they jump in the boxes to groom and sleep. The biggest challenge has been to find innovative ways to get the cats to take medication twice per day. For the first two days they were so starving, they swallowed them down without hesitation. As they became less hungry we were tested each time to find something tempting. Liver pate, tuna, fresh tiny fish, cheese, we have used them all!
Thankfully through the help and support of the Mirtos Project in Holland and animal welfare activists in Germany and Austria, all the cats have left the pen. The final two are in a foster home on Crete waiting to travel to Germany soon. We hugely appreciate the help to find homes for each and every one of these cats, despite the fact that 4 of them tested positive for FIV.
The hard work and persistence of the VOCAL volunteers and our friends overseas has triumphed. However, the financial cost has been huge. In a period of less than 8 weeks VOCAL has paid out over 3000 euros for the care, treatment and rehoming of these cats. Other projects are now on hold until the bank balance can be brought back into credit!

According to the LAPD, 36 adults and two juveniles were arrested. One arrest was for vandalism, and two arrests were for arson. Most of the 38 people arrested are charged with misdemeanors, but 15 are facing felony charges.
Police declared an unlawful assembly and started clearing the streets shortly after the game, but in spite of the massive police presence, there were several ugly incidents.
Rocks and bottles were thrown at the hundreds of police officers stationed in the area, and one of those officers suffered a broken nose when a flying object ricocheted off his protective helmet.
A man used a sign to smash the window of businesses. The windows of several vehicles and businesses were also broken.
One man was caught on camera lighting a taxi on fire, and flames shot into the air from the burning vehicle. The cab driver was dragged out and beaten, but was reported to be OK. His cab, however, was destroyed.
Firefighters were called to put out at least three vehicle fires, as well as several fires in rubbish bins. Fire crews dealt with more than 35 fires and other incidents within a half-mile radius of Staples Center.
The incidents included 15 rubbish fires, 1 vegetation fire, three vehicle fires and 18 medical aid requests for injured individuals. Eight people were taken by /*LAFD*/ ambulances to local hospitals.
Several people were arrested for public drunkenness.
Hundreds of police officers in riot gear moved into positions, trying to clear the scenes.
Officials said the hottest trouble spots were Grand Avenue and Olympic Boulevard. They also said Flower Street and Sixth Street were breeding grounds for chaotic activity.
LAPD Chief /*Charlie Beck*/ spoke about post-game troubles at a news conference at 11 p.m. Thursday.
"I give the game a 10; I give the celebration about a 5," Beck said. "We made multiple arrests, we used overwhelming force, we had a maximum number of police officers deployed here to clear out the crowds around Staples Center and disperse them."
Beck said that the number of police officers near Staples Center was four or five times the number from last year and included undercover police officers.
Beck said at least one police vehicle was damaged, but not severely, by thrown objects.
The arena wasn't the only place police targeted. The /*L.A. County Sheriff's Department*/ deployed hundreds of deputies to /*East Los Angeles*/ near Whittier Boulevard, which was closed to vehicle traffic between Easter and Garfield avenues for the duration of Game 7 and for hours thereafter.
At an LAPD graduation Friday, dozens of young police officers were warned by Beck that this is what they'll face as they hit the streets. Beck said that such rioting will most likely happen again no matter how well prepared the police are in the future.
"That's what happens when mobs of people take matters into their own hands," Beck described Thursday's riots. "But given the fact that we had about 10,000 people that decided they didn't want to comply with the law, I think we dispersed them very well and very quickly."
The rookie officers will quickly learn that bad things will likely happen no matter how well they train and how well they police.
"In a city of 4 million people, there are always going to be a couple of knuckleheads, and that's what these people were who engaged in these disturbances," said /*L.A. Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa*/.
Pockets of violence broke out in the downtown area, but it never got completely out of control as such incidents have happened after three past championships.
"I will deal with people who come in and vandalizes and act foolish and take advantage of crowd situations," said Beck. "The reality is we need to change the way people think about how to celebrate. That's the lesson."
The after-event analysis is currently under way, but as Beck indicated, unless people change their thought processes about celebratory activities, events like Thursday's riots will continue to happen even in the face of police efforts.
Although the chaos following the game was unfortunate, Lakers fans won't forget the real reason for all the celebration - winning the NBA Finals Championship.
The Lakers will host a celebratory parade for all local fans on Monday, June 21, starting at Staples Center and traveling south through downtown. The parade will begin at 11 a.m. The team is picking up the tab for the parade.
Unlike last year's parade, which was followed by a celebration complete with speeches and Laker Girl performances at Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, there will be no post-parade event on Monday.

Getting started with the Facebook app is as easy as identifying what page you would like to turn into a mobile app, then choosing the title for the page, icon image, and start-up screen.
Fan page owners can include any information they want from their page in their mobile app, including wall posts, images, and events.
Essentially just a mobile-friendly version of your traditional fan page, the mobile app is accessed by going to a URL (so you'll have to pass that out to anyone who might want to take advantage of the app).
Since everything in the app comes from your fan page, updating the app's content is as easy as updating the fan page on Facebook.
Creating a mobile app for a fan page also doesn't require you to be the owner of that page. So if you have a brand you like to follow, you can create an app for it on your mobile phone that will update as the actual fan page owner updates the page's content.
Fan Page Mobilizer currently only works for iOS devices, however, an Android version is reportedly on the way soon. The app builder is free for anyone who likes the Facebook app on Facebook. Otherwise, the cost is $5.

In college I was very familiar with card tables. But only for beer pong. Those were ugly, alcohol-soaked frat house fixtures that weren't exactly sanitary, but worked just fine for drinking games. Fast-forward to the present, when that's not exactly the kind of furniture I want to put out for company—something more sophisticated like this expandable piece is a much better fit.
It's made of light aluminum and it adjusts to accomodate up to six people. It collapses into three pieces for easy storage, and it weighs just about four pounds. Though it's not any fancy dining table, it's definitely appropriate for your next BBQ, or whatever outdoor shindig you have planned for the summer. The best part? It still works for a game of beer pong. [Hammacher]

Paul Kurtz passed away over the weekend at the age of 86. You would be hard pressed to find anyone who did more to advance secular humanism, atheism and skepticism over the last century and he had an enormous influence on me during my late teens and early 20s.
Kurtz was a builder. He founded or co-founded a laundry list of organizations, including the Center for Inquiry, the Council for Secular Humanism ((originally the Council for Democratic and Secular Humanism), the Committee for Scientific Inquiry (originally the Committee for the Scientific Investigation of Claims of the Paranormal), the Institute for Science and Human Values, and Prometheus Books. He was also the co-president of the International Humanist and Ethical Union and one of the writers of the second Humanist Manifesto.
Unfortunately, the last few years saw a fair bit of ugliness in many of the organizations he founded. His resignation from CFI, CSI and CSH, which may well have been forced, led to a lot of hurt feelings. This is not unusual, of course; many organizations do not survive the loss or death of their founders at all. Thankfully, all three organizations continue to grow under the leadership of his successors and I'm happy to be involved with all of them. But this is the time to celebrate his life, and Kurtz did more in one lifetime than most of us could do in twenty. He leaves behind a legacy that will continue to promote humanist and secular values well into the future.

Indictments Issued in New Mexico Antelope Poaching Case
OutdoorHub 06.05.12
A grand jury has indicted two men and a juvenile male from Rio Rancho on several counts in connection with the illegal killing of five pronghorn antelope Feb. 10 on the King Ranch near Zia Pueblo.
Michael Yarbrough, 21, Travis Miller, 18, and a 17-year-old are accused of cutting a fence, illegally trespassing on the ranch and shooting two bucks and three doe antelope. The heads of the bucks were removed and all the carcasses were left in a pile to rot. There was no legal hunt occurring at the time.
The suspects were indicted on several misdemeanor charges, including illegal possession of antelope, unlawful killing of antelope and criminal trespassing. The adults also face fourth-degree felony charges of contributing to the delinquency of a minor. They face numerous fines, possible jail time and loss of hunting privileges.
The Department of Game and Fish investigation was aided by a concerned sportsman who found the dead antelope and a subsequent tip from Operation Game Thief, the agency's toll-free poaching reporting line. Based on that information, officers were able to secure a search warrant for a residence in Rio Rancho, which provided evidence needed for the grand jury indictment.
Court hearings on the case are expected to be scheduled soon.
Anyone with information about a wildlife crime in New Mexico is encouraged to call Operation Game Thief, (800) 432-4263. Callers can remain anonymous and may be eligible for rewards.

Poll: Why do you pack bento lunches?
Why do you pack bento-style lunches, or why do you want to?
I gradually got into bento lunches through a series of coincidences that I wrote about in my profile. I lived in Japan for almost a decade, but didn't pack bentos often until my husband was misdiagnosed with celiac disease, a food intolerance that all but ruled out restaurant meals. Bento-style packing appealed to me as a way to help my husband eat well despite health restrictions.
After the doctors figured out that my husband didn't actually have celiac disease, I drifted back into the bento habit because of my toddler son: one small bento box took up a lot less room in my diaper bag than four or five Tupperware containers. How about you?

Putting theory into practice: creating and using storage spaces
Now that we know the basic underpinnings of the feature, let's walk through creating and using some storage spaces.
First, make sure you have more than one disk attached to your computer—these disks can be attached via SATA (or eSATA), USB, or SAS and interfaces can be mixed-and-matched, though obviously a USB 3.0 drive will slow down a storage pool otherwise composed of SATA disks and a USB 2.0 drive will slow down a storage pool made up of USB 3.0 drives.
Next, go to the Storage Spaces entry on the Control panel.
Before creating any storage spaces, we'll need to create a storage pool. Click the link to create a pool, and then select the disks you'd like to use. We're going to create a basic storage space with two-way mirroring, so we'll just pick two of the 5GB disks I created for my virtual testbed.
Click "Create pool" and then you'll be prompted to create a storage space on top of that pool. This is where you name the storage space, assign it a drive letter, choose the type of data resiliency you want, and set a maximum size for the space (which can be changed later as needed). Remember, because of thin provisioning, the maximum size of the storage space doesn't have to be limited by the amount of physical storage available. Here, I'll create a two-way mirrored storage space with a 20GB maximum capacity, even though I only have two 5GB disks in my storage pool.
Once you've created your storage space, it appears in Windows Explorer, and you can begin using it just as you would any other drive.
To see what's going on under the scenes, the Storage Spaces control panel now allows you to check on the amount of space available on the physical disks in your storage pool. Note that some drive capacity is consumed by overhead even when no data has yet been copied to the storage space—it looks like a lot here, but that's just because these are small test drives.
When you've used about 70 percent of the physical storage available in your pool, the Storage Spaces control panel will begin prompting you to add new drives so that you don't run out of space. Click the "Change settings" button and then click "Add drives" to add new disks to your pool—the process is the same as when you created your storage pool in the first place.
Even after you add disks, Storage Spaces dynamically writes different files to different physical disks to make sure that the failure of no one disk can affect your data's integrity. Let's pull one of the 5GB virtual disks out of our VM and see what happens.
To restore functionality, you can simply plug the disconnected drive in, and Storage Spaces will recognize it and continue operating normally. What if your drive failed, though, and you have to plug a new one in? First, click "Change settings," and then add a new drive to your storage pool—ideally, it should be equal to or greater than the old drive in capacity to avoid problems. At that point, the storage space should begin repairing itself, copying over the slabs affected by the old drive's failure.
After you've added a new drive to your pool, you can then click "Remove" to delete the disconnected drive's entry from your storage pool.
This process should also be applicable if you're removing drives of lesser capacities and replacing them with drives of higher capacities. As long as you only remove and replace one drive at a time and make sure to give Storage Spaces the time it needs to repair, you ought to be able to replace all of the drives in an array pretty easily (and if you use three-way mirroring instead of parity or two-way mirroring, you can remove two disks at once instead).
Looking for trouble: the devil's in the details
Problems with parity mode
All of this works just fine when you've got a nice, clean test environment and you're using drives that are the same performance level and size, but the math gets more difficult if you're using drives of different sizes. If you've got a disk in your storage pool that's much smaller or much larger than all the others you may be prevented from using your disk space to its fullest extent. For example, pairing a 5GB drive with two 20GB drives in Parity mode will quickly cause the storage space to become unusable because it runs out of room to store all the parity information (and it runs out of room far more quickly than is estimated when you create the storage space).
More trouble comes if you're trying to expand the capacity of a nearly-full storage pool. If you add disks to a pool, Storage Spaces does nothing to reallocate existing data to those disks. As you copy over new data, the new disks will be used first until they're about as full as the existing disks, but there's no automatic rebalancing that's going on.
This becomes a problem if you need to add space to a storage pool that's almost full. To demonstrate, I set up a 30GB parity mode storage space across three 5GB disks, and then started copying data until the physical disks were a over 70 percent full, like so:
To properly expand the storage spaces' capacity, the control panel advised me to add three more drives to the pool. In computer cases, server racks, and other areas with limited amounts of physical space, this could be a problem. If you only have room to insert one more drive, rather than redistributing the data evenly across the disks to fill up the space, Storage Spaces will allow the drive to sit there unused until you begin copying new data, like so:
With the extra disk added, the parity pool now has three disks that are 76 percent full, and one that's mostly empty. Write a few hundred megabytes to the storage space, and Windows spreads the new data across three of the disks: the one that's empty, and any two of the other three. Eventually, the disks that were nearly full become completely full and the storage space unmounts, leaving a considerable portion of the new disk unused. This isn't the case when you use four disks in a parity mode storage space in the first place:
If Storage Spaces would just redistribute data as new disks were added to your storage pool, this could be prevented, but especially in parity mode you still should be planning out how much capacity you need (and how much physical space you have for drives) beforehand.

Optimize and Align Transportation Procurement with your Business Needs
Comprehensive Procurement Solutions to Optimize your Business while Running your Business
The world's most successful industries recognize that having a single multi-function technology solution that aligns complex transportation logistics with their overall procurement strategy is critical for streamlining operations and gaining a competitive edge. Transportation procurement, sourcing, bidding, awarding, contracting, and managing suppliers are complex, demanding, high-stakes processes requiring real-time data and sophisticated management tools.
How do leading Distribution Logistics organizations secure the right carriers, balance the critical variables of cost, risk analysis, supplier performance, and still achieve 100 percent spend under management? They turn to Tejari. Tejari's Transportation and Logistics Suite is optimized not only for Distribution Logistics and services, but for the entire organization's procurement needs. Our multi-faceted solution allows a company to optimize its business while operating the critical infrastructure that runs the business.
While there may be differences in logistics procurement strategies between trucking, LTL sourcing, ocean sourcing, air freight sourcing, and multi-modal transportation procurement, the basic elements of making the right decisions and managing suppliers and events are the same. Our solutions far outstrip the capabilities of Transportation Management Systems (TMS) or a standard ERP suite. Tejari's proven, state-of-the-art solutions have been developed for all modes of transportation and are in use by some of the largest logistics companies in the world.
Case Study
Facing rising transportation costs, an increasingly complex supplier network and an inconsistent supply continuity, a leading Logistics company had outgrown its manual spreadsheet business management solution. The Company operated from multiple locations, each with its own network of carriers, to deliver finished products to customers. These carriers would occasionally interrupt the supply chain with unforeseen mishaps, introducing risk into the equation. Minimal contract terms were in place and there was no system to hold carriers accountable or even track their performance. The current model lacked end-to-end visibility into how the company made decisions and spent funds, its capabilities would soon be outstripped by business growth.
The Logisitics company's CPO turned to Tejari's automated transportation and logistics solution suite to standardize and centralize their procurement organization for decreased cost, consistent service levels, more governance, and risk mitigation. The solution suite provided a complete view into spending and the criteria from making those decisions, while tying a newly sourced supplier to a lock solid service contract.
"For events involving ground transportation, indirect materials, and services, we have seen consistently impressive results with Advanced Sourcing Optimizer."
CEVA Logistics

So then, later this week, while you're tucked up in bed, starting threads about seminal powerviolence records or whatever you do at 3am on a Thursday morning, it is worth considering DiS, who will be embarking upon a bleary-eyed pilgrimage to England's capital, via Megabus. Yes! Fortunately, the second leg of this journey reaches literally aircraft hanger-sized proportions, encompassing the Channel Tunnel, eventual arrival at Trans Musicales' big aircraft hanger venue, and some sort of guest reception where, I am assured, there awaits a hearty combination of wine, warm hospitality and fancy local cheese. Huzzah! Now, 'check this out', please:
What those good-looking people are getting at, in their own, kooky way, is that Trans Musicales - or if you like, Les Trans - is a genre-spanning and unpindownable thing of considerable greatness. Especially accepting that its attendance occupies roughly the same mid-sized ball park as that of, say, Latitude, its persistence in booking relatively obscure artists is mighty impressive. And yet, of everything that jumps out at you, as you cast a damp-with-joy eye over this fit-to-burst bill, the most pressing is that nothing seems particularly eager to jump out at you. But worry not - the treasures are not so much buried as bubbling excitedly beneath the surface, waiting to break water.
Although the relative big guns have been faintly but surely buzzing over the last year or more - the vicious infectiousness of Factory Floor, the weirdly pleasant, Drake-endorsed wobblies of SBTRKT, the nomenclatural double-whammy of Orlando Higgingbottom's totally awesome Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs - the fact is the heft of the lineup concerns itself mainly with pulling together uprising, curious strands of indie, hip-hop and electronica, which I think is sufficiently vague to encompass pretty much every base going. And yet, as one might expect of a festival held in France's Rennes, whose diligent curator Jean-Louis Brossard can only be considered some sort of modern day wonderhouse, there's also a notable emphasis on the accelerating output of the country itself, fairly ambitiously demonstrating the festival's aspirations. That is, aspirations of putting the sword to rampant stereotypes - concerning, borderline-novelty dance aside, the country's prevailing musical naffness - which are almost entirely fabricated by peculiar British journalists, thanks.
That said, it's perhaps Kennington's Breton that best embody the quintessential Transmusicians - aptly monikered torchbearers for a festival held in Brittany, no? The Hauschka and These New Puritans-collaborating sound/pop/video artists appear to be successfully unicycling the shaky, unconquerable contours of a bit of everything, really, if current evidence holds true. Try Raekwon-esque single 'Edward the Confessor' for a blaring siren of darkly identifiable pop.
"Are you hiding behind your swagger?" queried Londoner Obari Ejimiwe, aka Ghostpoet, at this year's Big Chill, before setting off on one of his likably righteous ambles, swerving from cheeky observations to Britticised Jeffrey Lewis-isms along the lines of 'Us Against Whatever''s "I love you like chicken soup, biscuits and lemonade / But sometimes my heart's deaf, it must need a hearing aid". Far from sinking into the lethargic groove of record, Ghostpoet live is a proper spectacle, confidently flinging fiddly vocal-contortions around a faraday cage of streaming lights. Ought not be missed.
Shabazz Palaces, meanwhile - Sub Pop's hip-hop answer to Nirvana or something - are (dis)content to tackle wider issues, not so much eschewing bells and whistles as crushing them 'neath a steel-toecapped boot. Swish debut album proper Black Up steadily erupts with the kind of molten, industrial greys that bear wisdom of some pretty horrifically dank sewers lurking beneath the music biz' topography. Hardly surprising - like our best mate MF DOOM before, the announcement of the Palaces as a hot new thang actually heralds a sly return to the rap game, namely that of Grammy-sporting former Digable Planet, Ishmael "Butterfly" Butler.
And yeah, this lot should also excite you, purely on account of their producing exceedingly and consistently wonderful music: Zomby, Colin Stetson, Alexander Tucker, 24-year-old Michael Kiwanuka - who sings like a wise old soul preparing calmly to drown dead in a vat of honey - and good Jagjaguwar eggs Wolf People.
So what remains is a whole bunch of French bands who, on the Transmusicales CD compilation, each had a song I found rather easy on the ear. Obviously the festival programme is just full of a load of French so I proffer little beyond wanky Ents24-style snippets to accompany these (largely spectacular) band names:
The Delano Orchestra - charmingly sober night-trawl through a sparkling maze of frosty Low melodies and pleasant fretwork
Stuck in the Sound - indie-pop with reams of energetic frenzy to spare, spill
Mein Sohn William - spoken word, yes, but French man + English accent = delight; early Micachu-stylee sound collage rounds it all off to determinedly shake a stick at prime Art Brut.
Splash Wave - bizarre journey through the synthy, squelchy, sinewy layers of a warped cyberspace omelette; no eggs broken, magical
Les Spadassins - grumbler, en francais, almost E. Smith-esque - though sadly one does not imagine he is on about wanking cats to feed dogs or anything
Monkey & Bear - hyper-blippy, squeaky exuberpop with three heaped sugars
Juveniles - Smiths meet Captured Tracks; dark fuzz-popsters with splashy bass and melody to slowly burn
Bumpkin Island - quiet, Deerhoof-centric purveyors of raggedly homespun psychedlic-folk - could scarcely fail to win you and your fringed companion over
And there we go. Missed anything? Should we have further dwelled on Canadian yelper Maylee Todd's entirely exceptional promo garb? Will Jesus Christ Fashion Barbe, Black Ham or indeed blossoming German house producer Fukkk Offf in fact be the toast of 2012's critical ceremonies, making a mockery of my inadequate and safe suggestions? On all counts: possibly, yeah. And that's why you ought to examine the full line-up here, or better yet, check up on last year's and simply gawp at how ruddy marvelously that old lot turned out. So yeah, like, see me there then? YEAH you will.

Certifikid is
the devil a great place to find new things you probably never would have done before; especially with kiddos. The discounts are usually pretty sweet and the places are typically pretty cool and full of character and charm.
The latest adventure we found was for The Red Caboose Motel just outside of Lancaster, PA...also known as Amish Country. If you've even seen Amish Mafia, this is the town/area where that is all filmed.
No lie, more horse drawn buggies than cars on the roads surrounding the train motel.

Hi all , I want to ask couple of important questions , firstly I have original retail disks for NBA 2K10 , NBA 2K11 , NBA 2K12 , NBA 2K13 , NBA 2K14 . I got some of them from Ebay and some of them from my retail game shop .
I want to ask which version is the best for you and why ? I don't care game rosters too much . I want to get opinions for gameplay and bugs , etc .
My second question about official patches . I have patches for NBA 2K10 , NBA 2K11 , NBA 2K12 on my PC from my personal archive . But I can't find any patches for NBA 2K13 and 2K14 for retail versions of PC . No patches for those versions ? or they removed from servers .
My third question how to identify them for NA/EU version ? Because they have different patches . Thanks for all of the answers .
PS: I also got NBA 2K15 from Steam but my pc won't run it at 60 fps . So I can't play it with low fps With that reason I didn't buy NBA 2K16 too . That's why I am asking about old games .
