The Kannada remake of "Oh My God" has been titled "Mukunda Murari", and the movie, starring Sudeep and Upendra, hit the floors on Tuesday, Feb. 11.
It was earlier titled "Krishna Nee Begane Baaro," but the makers of the film felt "Mukunda Murari" would be better. Hence, the name underwent a change, a source informed Indian Express.
"Oh My God" starred Akshay Kumar as Lord Krishna and Paresh Rawal as an atheist. The film, which was based on a Gujarati play, was directed by Umesh Shukla. The movie told the story of an atheist who wages a war on spiritual leaders and an insurance company when his shop gets destroyed by a low-intensity earthquake and the insurance company refuses to pay up, calling it an "acto of god".
While Sudeep is stepping into the shoes of Akshay Kumar, Upendra will enact the character played by Paresh Rawal. The remake is being scripted and directed by Nanda Kishore, who has delivered a few hits, including "Victory" and "Ranna". He is making minor changes to the story to suit the tastes of the local audience.
Meanwhile, the makers are planning to approach actress Prema, who bid goodbye to acting after marriage, to play the role of Uppi's wife, as their combination is popular with the audience. The duo had paired up in the movie "Upendra" way back in 1999.
The daily adds that Ramya Krishnan, Sadaa and a few others are also in consideration. Ravi Shankar and Avinash are part of the supporting cast, and Nidhi Subbaiah, who had played the role of a journalist in "Oh My God," has been approached for the same role.
"Mukunda Murari" is being bankrolled by Kichcha Creations, Jayashreedevi Productions and N Kumar Productions. Arjun Janya will compose the music, Sudhakar s Raj will handle the cinematography, Mohan B Kere is the art director and JM Prakash is the editor of the Kannada flick.

Interpol issues alert for 'White Widow' sought in Kenya
Interpol is looking for Samantha Lewthwaite, a British citizen dubbed the "White Widow", who may have played a role in the Nairobi mall attack.
Interpol issued a wanted persons alert at Kenya's request on Thursday for Samantha Lewthwaite, a British citizen dubbed the "White Widow", without mentioning her suspected role in the Nairobi mall attack.
The international police agency's so-called "red alert" notice said Lewthwaite, 29, is wanted by Kenya on charges of possession of explosives and conspiracy to commit a felony dating back to December 2011.
Lewthwaite, also believed to use the alias 'Natalie Webb', is the widow of Germaine Lindsay, one of the Islamist bombers who carried out attacks on public transport in London in July 2005, and is thought to have left Britain several years ago.
South African Interior Minister Naledi Pandor told a news conference in Pretoria on Thursday that Lewthwaite had entered South Africa in July 2008 with an illegal passport, which she last used in February 2011.
She is wanted in connection with an alleged plot to attack luxury hotels and restaurants in Kenya.
British police have cited Lewthwaite as a possible suspect in last week's siege of a Nairobi shopping mall by Islamists from Somalia's al Shabaab movement.
Some witnesses said that women were among the attackers in the four-day mall attack, which killed at least 72 people. But al Shabaab denied on its Twitter feed using "our sisters" in its military operations.
An Interpol spokesman declined to say when Kenya lodged its request for the alert.
"Through the Interpol Red Notice, Kenyan authorities have ensured that all 190 member countries are aware of the danger posed by this woman, not just across the region but also worldwide," Interpol Secretary Ronald Noble said in a statement.
In Nairobi, experts from U.S., British, Israeli and other agencies have joined Kenyan officers investigating the Westgate mall attack. Police are also Ptracking four suspected militants in Kenya's coastal tourist region.
The high-impact attack has highlighted the reach of al Shabaab beyond Somalia, where Kenyan troops have joined other African forces, driving the group out of major urban areas, although it still controls swathes of the countryside.
"We have four suspects within Mombasa who we are closely watching. They came back to the country after training in Somalia," Robert Kitur, county police commander in the port city and beach tourist hub, told Reuters.
Western nations have long feared turmoil in Somalia was providing a training ground for militants. Kenya sent its troops into its northern neighbor in 2011 to fight the group it blamed for attacks along the border and kidnappings on the coast.
Highlighting the lawless nature of Kenya's northern region near Somalia, two policemen were killed on Thursday in an assault on a administrative post in that region. Al Shabaab said its fighters carried out this latest raid.
Part of the Westgate mall collapsed in the four-day siege that followed Saturday's attack, burying some bodies and hindering investigations, although forensic experts have started work even as the army continues to comb the building for explosives.
"The army are still in there with the forensic teams," said one senior police officer near the mall that was crowded during lunchtime on Saturday when attackers armed with assault rifles and grenades stormed in.
Officials say the death toll of 61 civilians, six members of the security forces and five militants is unlikely to rise much further, although some bodies of the attackers may be buried.
However, the Red Cross has said there were still 71 people listed as missing.
Several details of the attack remain uncertain: the final death toll, the identities of attackers, how many there were - officials indicate about a dozen - and how they staged such a sophisticated raid that lasted so long.

When you're running a small business, having a strong and trusting relationship with your accountant is essential.
After all, this is the person who's not only keeping an eye on your financials; they're also keeping you from running afoul with the IRS.
So how can you ensure you're getting the most out of that relationship?
You and your accountant need to be on the same page, and asking the right questions will help you both do what's best for your business.
Start with the basics.
If you're just starting out or looking to switch accountants, there are some important questions to ask first.
Basic questions about education and certifications may seem obvious, but you should also ask about past experience and request references (Has this accountant done work in your industry before? Are they familiar with the specific tax and reporting requirements applicable to it?).
Ask about what services they provide – an accountant who can help you grow your business will be able to provide budgeting and cash flow management advice as well as business and strategic planning.
If you're thinking of going with a firm, make sure you'll have a single point of contact who will get to know your business inside and out.
Then get the details.
Once you have chosen an accountant, stay involved with their work and make sure you know what's going on beyond the red or black line at the bottom of your Profit and Loss Statement.
If your accountant were to disappear tomorrow, you should be able to understand your business's figures and overall financial health.
An important starting point for discussing your figures and understanding your business's financial standing is comparing your business to industry standards (part of the reason to go with an accountant with experience in your field).
Gross margins and net profits can vary drastically from one industry to another, and a 10% annual net profit for a clothing shop has a very different implication than a 10% annual net profit for a private practice physician.
Instead of just asking if these figures are "good" or "bad," you should ask your accountant to show you relevant industry benchmarks, and if your business isn't measuring up, ask where you're losing money and how you can shore up those numbers.
Knowing how your accounts differ from your competitors is a great way to identify areas for improvement.
You should also understand the numbers specific to your business. Ask to see a breakdown of your offerings to identify which products or services bring in the most profit.
If you sell a product, know exactly what is included in your cost of goods sold, the cost that's slashed from your gross income for each and every item you sell.
Find out what your breakeven point is, and use this number when deciding prices or making marketing decisions (from offering discounts to spending on advertising).
Don't forget the big picture.
Remember to ask "big picture" advice questions too: Are you making wise investments? How can your business cash flow be improved?
If you're in growth mode or if you owe a particularly high tax bill this season, be sure to seek their advice about small business loans and the right amount to borrow.
Overall, how financially healthy is your business, and would it be able to survive a bad season? A bad year? A recession?
Whenever you have a concern or feel you don't understand something, don't be afraid to ask "why."
You won't be overstepping your bounds or asking too much – a good accountant should be there for more than just plugging numbers into spreadsheets.
After all, your accountant knows your business's finances better than anyone else (except perhaps you), so they're in the best position to answer these questions – as long as you think to ask.

text: Researchers from SDL Inc. of San Jose, Calif., and AT&T Labs-Research of Red Bank, N.J., have reported that their field tests show that distributed Raman amplification improves the performance of 10-Gb/s wavelength division multiplex transmission. They used 40 km of installed older-vintage fiber to demonstrate that SDL's RL30 Raman pump modules can be incorporated into existing terrestrial networks without damaging the fiber or connectors. The researchers estimate that, at optimum pump power levels of 650 mW, the 17-dB average channel Q-value would enable transmission over up to seven 120-km spans, rather than three with-out Raman amplification. Pump powers of up to 950 mW did not damage the fiber.

Tips for First Time Drivers
Young and new drivers will often face stiff premiums when they take out car insurance for the first time. And if you look at the statistics, it's not hard to see why.
The Australian Bureau of Statistics reports an over-representation of young drivers in the national road toll. Drivers aged under 25 years are considered twice as likely to die on our roads as the rest of the population. In fact, young males are considered, by car insurers, as the most 'at risk' of being involved in a motor vehicle accident.
What young drivers can do to help minimise premiums?
- Keep a clean driving record. A good driving record will help keep your premiums lower.
- Shop around. You could save yourself hundreds of dollars a year.
Quick tips for young drivers
- Compare quotes – get estimates from at least three different insurers.
- Look for insurers that specialise in policies for young drivers.
- Choose a safe, economical car – the more expensive your vehicle, the more costly your car insurance is likely to be.
- Install an appropriate safety device e.g. immobiliser, alarm and this may qualify you for a discount.
- Read the fine print of your policy and be clear on your coverage obligations.
- Report any modifications you make to your vehicle.
- Advise of changes to your personal circumstances as soon as possible.
- Consider enrolling in a safe driving course – you may even be rewarded by your insurer.
- Drive safely and commit yourself to keeping a clean driving record.

Osama Bin Laden Is Dead – It Ain't Over Yet
by admin
Osama Bin Laden is dead.
After countless years, both before and after 9/11. After two poorly conceived and executed wars still lacking the light of resolution. After the loss of 2,340 coalition soldiers, 8,739+ Afghan forces, and tens of thousands of civilians deaths, the world's most wanted man has been killed by a U.S. operative in a mansion outside of Islamabad in Pakistan. Should we feel any safer? Does this mean the terror that has gripped the nation for the last ten years will fade?
The United States created the animal that was Osama Bin Laden. His hatred of what we stood for was continually reinforced by our stubborn refusal to look at the world on its own terms rather than try to impose an ideal that we ourselves only barely understand. Throughout the years of his reign of terror, this modest man, living a shepherd's existence in the mountains of Afghan/Pakistan borders defied the will of the world's largest super-power and demonstrated to his followers that any nation, no matter how rich or powerful, could be humbled by the actions of a few faithfully deluded followers. He ushered in a new era of military combat, where the most powerful weapons were volunteers; men and women willing to sacrifice themselves for their beliefs, to die willingly for an ideal all the democracy and capitalism in the world couldn't erase. His principle weapon was fear, his strategic goal the corruption of what he perceived was an imperialist tendency to impose its world view upon others.
And guess what? It worked.
In the years since 9/11, the U.S. has learned that the cost of fear is the loss of liberty. Whether intentional or not, the single greatest wound Bin Laden inflicted was the near total destruction of our national faith in our own Constitution. Before Bin Laden, movement was relatively unrestricted; privacy was, for the most part, respected; and religious and social tolerance was a touchstone of national merit. We were a democracy that tok pride in our ability to preserve opposing viewpoints under a banner of national discourse. We were a melting pot of ideas meant to stand as a example to the world of how to bring peace and prosperity to all, regardless of race or religion.
Post-9/11, all of that changed. Travelers now face a gauntlet of security measures that more closely resemble a statutory arrest than a boarding pass. Communications of all kinds are monitored more closely than the mating habits of pandas. Phones are routinely tapped, e-mails scanned, text messages intercepted, browsing habits logged, shopping sprees recorded for future reference. Because of fear, we traded away our individual freedoms for the blanket label of "potential terrorist" – objects to the machine.
Worse yet, our national psyche fractured into one of such pure paranoia that the melting pot of peaceful co-existence saw its flame extinguished so we could better cower in the dark. Because Bin Laden was a Muslim, all of Islam – a religion of peace – was painted with a broad brush of suspicion and hatred. Our political leaders told twin tales of deceit with one side of their mouths professing respect for the faith of Muhammad, while the other ordered airstrikes and roundups of civilians that happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time, or worshipping the wrong texts in the wrong temple. Our soldiers were sent to foreign soil to fight a menace their superiors couldn't even define and, in far too many instances, were led into battle under the false pretense that these were wars to be fought for the soul of humanity; crusades where one God would be show to be superior to another.
On the home-front, political divisions were defined by the phrase, "You're either with us, or against us," a ridiculously medieval rhetoric that under normal circumstances would have appeared absurd to all but the most closed of minds. But, within our climate of fear, such rhetoric became the hallmark of political success. We needed villains, and our inability to capture Bin Laden – the true cause of our fear – resulted in the turning of others into surrogate subjects for an impotent rage. We traded discourse for hate; stereotyping opponents as lesser Bin Laden's when they failed to toe the company line. The middle ground became a minefield of polar opposition; lacking both the will and the way to navigate to a position of comfort or safety.
But now the cause of our trauma is dead. Life should return to normal, yes? I wouldn't get your hopes up.
Osama Bin Laden may be officially dead, but his legacy is still very much alive, and equally lethal. Ayman al-Zawahiri, Bin Laden's second in command, yet lurks, fully capable of kicking us hard, and where it hurts. For every soul rejoicing that the son of a bitch is dead, there are an equal number now righteously engaged in the game of vengeance for vengeance's sake. The hydra hasn't died, its only waiting for the second head to move forward to lead another charge.
And as we wait, we continue to erase the very things the beast abhors. In the coming weeks, you can expect the United States to be on an extremely high level of alert. The tensions we experienced in the days following 9/11 are likely to return. Our soldiers stationed around the world will be forced to sleep a little lighter, ears cocked to the fence-lines. Travelers already irritated with nuclear scanning and enhanced pat-downs will face increasingly distressed, lowly paid TSA agents told to look sharper, listen more carefully, and fell a little more closely. People on the street will cut eyes sideways at their companions, wondering if today is the day that one vengeful lunatic succeeds where others have failed. We will all cower a little more, and our leaders will feed our fears with fresh revelations of new horrors lying just around the corner; equally angry, equally fierce, equally deadly. Osama Bin Laden may be dead and gone, but the terror he bestowed upon this once great nation still festers like a cancer on our national consciousness.

By Izemrasen N.M.
Kabylia stretches its hand to France, while sounding the alarm that the future of the Western civilization and peoples, which is seriously threatened by fascist Islamism, depends above all upon the liberation of the tyrannized Kabyle people—who believe in and fight for democratic secular humanist values—and all the other peoples of the southern shore of the Mediterranean who share the same universal ideals with the Western world.[1]
Indeed, it's no mystery to anyone that the destiny of both the West and Kabylia is under serious threat. Islamism is nothing other than a weapon of mass destruction in the hands of the Western-supported Arab despots. To bring into focus the fact that fascist Islamism is a terrible calamity for mankind, Gaya Izennaxen, a Kabyle secular humanist activist and Director at the presidency of the Provisional Government of Kabylia (GPK) in charge of Audiovisual Affairs, very rightly denounced on his Facebook account the Algerian Department of Intelligence and Security (DRS), which is behind the killing of nearly 350 thousands Algerians and the disappearance of thousands of civilians in the country since 1992, in the following words: "By creating Islamism, by spoon-feeding it through schools, mosques, and by exploiting it as it does today in Azawad, the DRS massacred entire regions under the complacent gaze of France, not to say complicity, and the deafening silence of the international institutions, which also have just given the green light for the massacre of the Tuaregs to come."
Like all his fellow Amazighs, Izennaxen wishes to see the genocidal Western-Arab Islamo-terrorist alliance dismantled as soon as possible. Islamism conducts to fanaticism and obscurantism, both of which lead in their turn to terrorism and death. In an appeal published by the Kabyle News Agency (Siwel),[2] Gaya Izennaxen urges the silent and indifferent peoples of the world to exercise strict control over their respective rapacious governments that have been directly or indirectly complicit in the ongoing human rights violations and genocide against the secular Amazigh peoples of North Africa. Recently, two or three months ago, in a televised interview and an article in Open Democracy, the British professor Jeremy Keenan has revealed an open secret that the Algerian state is behind not only the terrorist chaos in Azawad, but also the bloody attacks in Kabylia and elsewhere in Algeria.[3] Today, times have changed, and the world of the 21st century must no longer stand with those barbarous antihuman regimes that exploit tyrannical Islamo-terrorism to advance their own criminal and genocidal agendas.
It is shiningly evident that it is in the supreme interest of the West and the entire world to halt without delay the totalitarian imperialist agenda of the Western-Arab Islamo-terrorist coalition that is deploying all its diabolical forces against the secular Tuareg people of Azawad and all the other oppressed, enslaved and stateless Native Amazigh peoples, who are fighting for their fundamental human rights to life, existence, freedom, democracy, secularism, dignity, peace, self-determination, and sovereignty. It's no longer a secret that fascist, genocidal Islamo-terrorism is being used by the imperialist Western-Arab alliance to deprive the democratic and secular Amazigh peoples from disposing of and using their own ancestral land according to their own will, traditions and interests and from taking their national political destiny into their own hands.
With no military or financial support from the so-called civilized free world, the secular National Movement for the Liberation of Azawad (MNLA) is currently waging a long-term war alone against almost all the planet Earth's known Islamo-terrorist organizations such as AQIM, MUJAO, Ansar Adine, and Boko Haram, all of which are branches of Al Qaeda, which has been proved by honest political analysts to be nothing else than the spearhead of the tyrannical and genocidal Western-Arab imperialism in Amazigh North Africa.
Like all the Amazighs, the Kabyle people are outraged and incensed by the criminal Franco-Arab conspiracy against the democratic and secular Tuareg people of Azawad as well as all the other Amazigh peoples of Tamazgha—the Native Amazigh peoples' ancestral land comprising the whole region of North Africa. In one of his enlightening declarations, the President of the Movement for the Autonomy of Kabylia (MAK), Bouaziz Ait Chebib, truthfully and accurately brings into focus the racist and fascist nature of the neo-colonialist Franco-Arab alliance, known as Francarabia:
"The racist Algerian regime and its generals fear the birth of a modern secular Amazigh state. Visceral hatred of everything Amazigh is a constant among all the Arab countries' leaders. Have a look at that Saudi emir putting pressure on Microsoft to remove the Amazigh script from its new operating system [Windows 8]. The MAK forcefully condemns this infamous alliance that shamefully attempts to perpetuate the Franco-Arab imperialism in the Amazigh land, the land of free men. The massacres perpetrated by the colonial army of Mali, in total disregard of the so-called free world, is a disgrace to humanity. The silence of the international community to such genocide is a criminal complicity that history will remember. … The fight for life of the Tuaregs is righteous, and what is righteous will prevail. The people of Azawad will triumph over MALI, France, and Algeria."[4]
Regarding the issue of the Islamo-terrorist invasion of Azawad, the President of the Provisional Government of Kabylia (GPK) in exile, Ferhat Mehenni, has also revealed that "AQIM is a pure creation of the Algerian government, which has funded it and assures it logistical support, to ensure influence on the decision-making in the Sahel. … This is a strategy of scavengers."[5]
The humanist Kabyle people are shocked and disgusted by the scandalous attitude of the international community that seeks at all costs to keep all the Native North African Amazigh peoples stateless, powerless, shackled, invisible and silent behind the walls of the French-created Arabist-Islamist prison-states. Instead of defending, promoting and implementing secular human freedom everywhere and for all peoples in our planet, the world leaders are shamelessly attempting to justify and cover a "crime against humanity" against the Amazigh Tuareg people with the purpose of robbing their natural resources. The spokeswoman of the Movement for the Autonomy of Kabylia (MAK) abroad, Yasmina Oubouzar, has rightly put the finger on the Franco-Arab conspiracy against the secular Tuaregs by saying:[6] "France, which has a historical responsibility in the dramatic fate of the Tuaregs, is walled up in a guilty silence when it does not evoke its "logistical support" to an intervention in Azawad in order to restore the "territorial integrity" of a Nation it created from scratch."[7]
In the militarily occupied and colonized Kabylia[8]—whose soul and personality are constantly attacked and violated—kidnappings, killings, alcohol and drug invasion, prostitution, Arabization, Salafization, hijabization, Allahization, disinformation, depersonalization, corruption, humiliation, terrorism and persecution continue to be the daily horrifying burdens of the oppressed population. As defenseless Kabylia is sinking into state-created insecurity[9]—which is part of the genocidal anti-Kabyle program of the colonialist, terrorist Algerian regime—the Provisional Government of Kabylia (GPK) in exile has called on the Amazigh Kabyle people to urgently work together to consider how to organize their own self-defense.[10] The President of the GPK, Ferhat Mehenni, has made it clear by declaring: "Insecurity is the fault of the regime through the multiple police forces deployed in Kabylia. We have nothing to expect from this regime. … Kabylia must have its own security forces to put an end to the attempts of the regime that wants to bring the Kabyles to heel."[11]
Like most of the activists for the self-determination of the Kabyle nation, both Yasmina Oubouzar and Bouaziz Ait Chebib, respectively the President and spokeswoman abroad of the Movement for the Autonomy of Kabylia (MAK), have vigorously denounced the criminal Mafiosi Algerian state to be behind Islamist terrorism in secular Kabylia.[12] In fact, only those who are complicit in turning the stated-created, state-managed terror into an instrument of governance against the innocent, defenseless and stateless Amazigh peoples continue to hide and deny this striking truth. As a popular Kabyle saying goes: "We cannot hide the sun with a sieve."
Just a reminder, since 1857, the year in which the anti-Amazigh colonial France stripped the democratic, secular Amazigh Kabyle nation of its sovereignty, the Kabyle people have paid, and continue to pay, a high price in human, economic, societal and cultural destruction for their love of freedom and resistance to tyranny. Today, Kabylia's ancestral immaterial and secular forces are gravely threatened by the genocidal Franco-Arab Islamo-terrorist tyranny. More hidden truths and information on the inhuman situation in which secular Kabylia is thrown have been uncovered in the postscript of my historical book published in September 2011.[13]
The globally-minded Kabyle people, whose existence and survival are dangerously threatened by the Western-Arab-Islamist geopolitical genocidal agenda, are direly in need of support from all the modern secular peoples of the world. Be that as it may, in view of the fact that after its fake independence in 1962, the French-created Algeria—which is ethnically, culturally and historically Amazigh—has been governmentally structured by neo-colonial France as one of its tyrannical, anti-Kabyle, anti-Amazigh, Arabist-Islamist and easily plunderable possessions in Amazigh North Africa, the shortest path for the doubly colonized Kabyle people towards the independence of their nation is to negotiate directly, independently and urgently with the French government that still remains, whether the despotic predatory impostors from all sides admit it or not, the sole ruling power in unfree Algeria and Tamazgha as a whole.
In a world governed by harsh and savage materialism, where noble humanist values have lost their effect and meaning, the abused and tyrannized secular Kabyle people—who have long been denied their basic human rights to live in peace, freely and sovereignly in their own ancestral land—have now the legitimate impression that the entire world is not yet ready to hear about or support their righteous nonviolent struggle for freedom. The current and traditional international media embargo imposed against the Kabyle and all the other Amazigh peoples' fight for self-determination is an irrefutable indication that the annihilating imperialist Western-Arab alliance has always strived to cast them into eternal non-existence, till their definitive wiping out from the map of the planet. The President of the Provisional Government of Kabylia (GPK), Ferhat Mehenni, has himself many a time denounced this intolerable and outraging injustice.[14] What the peoples of the misled world should also be informed about is that the history, literature, humanist culture, language and secular rationalism of the Kabyle or Amazigh people have always been banned from the media and educational curriculums of the French-created Arabist-Islamist nationless states imposed on Amazigh North Africa.
However, many political observers and human rights advocates are persuaded that the rational, humanistic and moral obligations of current globalization are more than enough to convince the selfish and greedy West to urgently put an end to its enslaving and genocidal geopolitical agenda in Kabylia and the rest of Amazigh North Africa by dismantling its own created criminal Arabist-Islamist tyranny, which has been plundering, oppressing and exterminating the secular Amazighs since so long. Also, it stands to reason that global governance cannot be legitimate or efficient without guaranteeing human rights, equality, freedom, respect, dignity, security, peace, secularism, democracy and justice for all the subjected peoples of the world, including the democratic and secular Amazigh peoples—on whom primarily depend the fate of the Mediterranean and Western civilization. In a greedy and plundering world governed by tyrannical Islamo-terrorism, human secular freedom has so little chance to survive or to prevail.
By ignoring Kabylia, France, or more broadly the West, is ignoring itself. If the current medieval geopolitical mindset of the West regarding secular North African Amazigh peoples does not change, the former would soon be borne away by Islamo-fascism into the wilderness of darkness. Without the rule of secular human reason, the whole world is likely to become a tyrannical Islamist prison dominated by greed, terror, chaos, destruction and hell.

A plan to build 51 luxury homes in the hills above Kottinger Ranch will come back for consideration by the Pleasanton City Council tonight, but it's unlikely any decision will be made on the next steps in its 2-1/2-year-long approval process.
The council adopted an ordinance approving the development in November 2007, which included a gift to the city of 492 acres of land as part of the proposal by developers Jennifer Lin and her brother Frederic, the longtime owners of the property.
Since then, the proposal has gone through several legal hurdles after former Councilwoman Kay Ayala and a citizens' coalition she helped organize petitioned the courts to overturn the council's decision. In the end, the state Supreme Court on Oct. 14 finally rejected the Lins' appeal of a Court of Appeal decision to allow the citizens' petition to move forward.
Tonight, the council is expected to accept the certification of the referendum petition. That will require the council to reverse its 2007 decision and deny the Lin project or to ask voters to decide the issue in a referendum.
But with Mayor Jennifer Hosterman in Washington, D.C. for the U.S. Conference of Mayors meeting, the council will likely delay any action on reversing its decision or calling for a referendum until its next meeting on Feb. 2 which all five members of the council are expected to attend.
If the council decides to call for a referendum, it must place the issue on the ballot either on June 8 during the state's primary election or on Nov. 2, the date of the national election.
Also tonight, the council is expected to approve a plan to move forward with a plan to renovate or redevelop Kottinger Place and Pleasanton Gardens, two affordable senior housing facilities on Kottinger Drive near downtown.
This would allow city staff, working with the Kottinger Place Task Force and the Pleasanton Gardens board of directors, to select a nonprofit developer to prepare more detailed project designs, plans and financial information for a new 128-150 unit senior rental development.
The developer also would look at plans to build a smaller facility on the Kottinger Place site or to rehabilitate that housing complex along with renovating Pleasanton Gardens.

Hi guys and at last a brand new comic series is here....NORMANDY 44 will focus on just that whilst the second series AXIS OF ATTACK will be about Axis forces and their war as allies to Germany.
So grab a coffee or cuppa and if you are knackered a small beverage and sit back and enjoy the action as I transport you to June 1944. We begin with my homage to the Combat TV series made in 1962 and I hope you like it.
Please note the medium I work with is spell check enhanced and this makes it really hard at times to edit on my bleeding iPad so I apologise in advance for the spelling mistakes.
I really would appreciate any feedback and I respect everyone's voice so if you want to help or just get involved .....contact me.

Halloween: DIY Baby Pagliacci Costume
It was such a treat making this costume for my little munchkin. This costume was done in 2 days but I probably could have finished in one full day if I didn't have to take care of my children and work at the same time but It was all worth it! :-)
: Fabric and for the collar, elastic, black yarn for pom pom, lining for the inside of the hat and black ribbon to keep it in place.
Cut front and back and 2 pieces for sleeves. Pants: cut 4 pieces
Making the collar is very easy. Kind of like making a tutu. I'm attaching some photos for you to see. You can also zoom in.

Norwegian government woos green voters
With parliamentary elections only weeks away, Norway's minority Labour government has issued a flurry of popular environmental decisions. Shortly after its announcement of a temporary ban on oil drilling in a sensitive area of the Norwegian Sea (EED 30/08/01), the environment ministry moved to protect 118 square kilometres of forest and woodland in three counties. It also halted construction of a controversial golf course in the scenic district of Maridalen on the outskirts of Oslo, and approved an ambitious sustainable development plan for Vestfold county. See Norwegian environment ministry.

Every Sunday we highlight some of the people who are funding our work creatively or helping us spread the word of our mission online. If you spot Heifer International while youre surfing the web or know of a fun or creative fundraising effort, please share it with us here in the comments.
Cornerstone United Methodist Church held its annual Glorious Giving Market November 10, 2012, benefiting six organizations including Heifer International. "It's a glorious thing that God would be proud of because it helps really needy people," said Patricia Harlan, Leader of Mission Team.
The Juniper Moon Farm has a recent blog post listing great children's books that feature knitting, yarn or sheep, great holiday gifts. If you find a book you want to buy, and click on the link through the blog, the blog will donate it's percentage to Heifer International.
I thought this was a unique way to let others know you'd be happy with an alternative gift this holiday (such as the kind Heifer International offers). Check out the One Less Gift certificate.
She Knows Shopping tells us How to Give to a Giver: "Skip the commercial items this year, and give your advocate friend a gift that supports a cause you know will be meaningful." Buying a chicken or cow through Heifer International is among the great ideas listed.
Students at Los Alamos Middle School in New Mexico are participating in Heifer International's Read to Feed a reading incentive program that allows children to help find solutions to global problems like hunger and poverty. Students will record books they read through Dec. 14, and will ask for pledges for each book read.
Tina Forsyth is having a virtual launch for her new book to help entrepreneurs improve their business process and enjoy some time off. Heifer International will benefit from 25 percent of the sales from the launch.
Saint John's Presbyterian Church in Houston is having a Living Gift Market on December 2, and will feature many booths selling items that will benefit the community and the world, including Heifer International.
In Kendal Park, New Jersey, an alternative gift market is being held November 18, offering African, Asian and Latin American handicrafts, as well as alternative gift offerings from Heifer International.

The boycott is being organized by the first openly gay presidential candidate for the 2012 election: Republican Fred Karger.
Karger is the president of Rights Equal Rights, a California nonprofit public benefit corporation that draws "attention to the major donors to the Yes on 8 campaign."
His site www.rightsequalrights.com is a hub for all things boycott (the word is used on the landing page more than eight times) – from shunning A1 Self Storage to Manchester Hotels to Amway.
Karger and Rights Equal Rights started another website dedicated just to the boycott of Amway, its parent company, Alticor, its sister companies, Quixtar Incorporated, AccessGroup LLC and all of their subsidiaries, and other DeVos-family owned companies.
On the site, you can find a petition, an open letter to Mr. Doug DeVos and a page urging people to call DeVos – phone number is included, but it's just the general line, good luck getting him on the phone.
Better keep a cheat sheet on who to boycott. It's a long list. At least with the Chick-Fil-A debacle, there was only one chicken to go after.

Excellent work by those Detroit Headz. Track 2 Track is in my opinion one of KDJ's finest moment (like Transit). Rick Wilhite's awesome "Roots Of Detroit" samples the beginning of Pam Todd and Love Exchange - Let's Get Together and this to great effect!

This is the definitive Detroit house album. Theo's "When the Morning Comes" is one of his grittiest and most pounding releases. Kenny's "Track 2 Track" is another slow builder ala "Shades of Jae" that ends in dancefloor devastation. Rick's "War on Woodward" is one of his deepest moments. Every cut is a classic.

floppy pressing ala NSC on the cheap with tracks that to this day still get played, I just dropped Roots of Detroit in my sessions at Coobah (bar/restaurant in Chicago) and seemed to get the head nod thing going. So it's that kind of record. Classic detroit goes deep, devastating. All ways in the lo fi filter to the deep insanity. The hard tracky bugout spaz jams ala track to track and when the morning comes. play those just right in the mix and things will light up from the spine on up. Rain for Jimmy is nice, I always found it too long to play in the mix, but that's what is so fun about it too. Roots of Detroit is the jam. LATE night shuffler with what must be a Prince (erotic city) sample among others. And that Outer Drive track which is filtered out idiot funk of the highest order. A tool box record of the essential kind.

Here's a super short bonus chapter: Saturday, May 28, 2011.
Christian picks up his delighted and chattery younger excuse not to help Ana move, er, I mean sister at the airport. Mia chatters about France and cooking school and shopping and all manner of rich girl things. Christian has a flashback about Mia as a baby – which is moderately disturbing since he's the one driving. Oh well, Mia just keeps on yapping and doesn't even notice.
In the flashback Christian's mother lets him hold baby Mia, and he loves her sooooo much that 'Mia' is his first word. The montage finishes up as Christian pulls into the driveway of his parents' mansion, with Mia still talking. Phew! Everybody made it out alive!
Christian helps Mia carry her mountain of luggage into the house. Women! Amirite? Christian is disgusted by the maid, who makes 'cow eyes' at him. Women again! Amirite?! Huh? Huh?
Yeah, maybe Christian is just a gross asshole. It's more than a remote possibility.
Christian goes to his personal trainer, goes jogging, and texts Elliot to find out Ana and Kate's new address. He plans to send creepy stalker gifts to Ana, and presumably, dead animals to Kate, whom he hates with the white hot intensity of a thousand spoiled rich kids.
The riding crop, the one Christian ordered in the last chapter arrives. Did I mention that? Ana had a dream about a particular kind of riding crop so Christian ordered it as a surprise. Surprise motherfucker! He has the requisite Zapp Brannigan-esque thoughts, and then gets distracted by a phone call from Elena.
Now that he is totally not in love at all (it's just an arrangement!) with Ana, for some reason he doesn't want to talk to his old lover who's been stringing him along all these years. Huh. Weird.
Then we skip to dinner with Mumsy and Dadsy at the mansion. The whole family gossips about who Christian's new woman can possibly be. They giggle like school children at Christian's expense. Gawd. No wonder he didn't want to tell them about Ana. Elliot even exclaims loudly, "You know she popped his cherry?" Okay, Elliot is an adult man of nearly 30.
It's also interesting that, not only did his family think he was gay, they thought he was a gay virgin. Soooo…okay.
Elliot tries to stir up trouble by inviting Ana over for dinner at the mansion. Mumsy Grace strikes like a hungry wolverine – she wants to meet this woman! Christian doesn't really give an answer and excuses himself before things can get weirder.
And that's all she wrote. That is literally all she wrote.

Librarians used to wear sweaters and glasses. Now they should wear superhero capes.
Successful librarians are part techie, part teacher, and part agent for change.
Long gone are the days of collecting fines and enforcing the code of silence. In the digital age, librarians have seen their roles, and their opportunities, grow tremendously.
Combat Information Overload
Well-informed citizens can make positive impacts on society.
Benjamin Franklin felt strongly enough about the importance of information to start a library. Then, books were scarce and only the wealthy usually had access to them.
Today, the situation is reversed. More people have access to more information than ever. In fact, there is so much content produced by so many sources, it can seem overwhelming. That's how the term information overload became popular.
From trying to locate legitimate sources to maintaining focus, it can sometimes seem an impossible task.
Librarians can help. They can assist with research on sources, both online and in print publications.
They can sift through the numerous search hits and locate the most helpful sources.
Even better, they can provide pointers on how to evaluate source materials for use during future research.
Promote Technical Literacy
Librarians know more than just books. They have experience with both software and hardware.
At schools, they help students with computer issues of both varieties. School librarians are often the ones coordinating technology use.
They promote technology at public libraries too. They often coordinate tech help times.
For example, a local library might schedule a teen tech night, where adults can bring their new devices to have librarian-supervised teens provide education and assistance. These libraries also provide access to computers and the internet for those that may not have them at home.
The demand for people with strong communication and information management skills continues to grow.
If you are looking are exploring career options, consider earning an advanced degree. Schools like USC and others have innovative programs that can prepare you for both public and private sector roles.
Provide Equal Opportunity Access
Libraries are a natural place where people can hone their skills.
From teen reader clubs to toddler story time, library staff members encourage young readers. Some create programs to promote literacy for recent immigrants learning a new language and culture.
Being a librarian can be the best combination of teacher, advocate and chief information officer.
If this type of engaging, evolving career sounds appealing explore your education options. You may prefer learning in-person and choose an on-campus program. If your schedule doesn't allow for that, USC's library degree program is online.
Schools with these remote study options let you pursue a degree in a way that more flexibly fits your schedule.
Expand Career Opportunities
Students with management degrees in library and information science do have employment paths outside of traditional libraries.
Earning this type of management degree opens up more options than many people realize. Gaining this degree opens up possibilities in places such as business and government.
If you are thinking about a career change, think about becoming a librarian. You may not get a superhero cape upon graduation, but you will have the skills and training to make a positive impact in the lives of many people.

Funky fresh fan, heatsink, and case designsWe all love fast hardware -- burly graphics cards, oodles of RAM, multi-core processors -- but one of the unsung heros is cooling. Crucial as it may be to a stable running machine, cooling isn't always glamorous or sexy. That being the case, it was refreshing to see a few vendors showing off new fan designs, including Zalman, which brought to CES a crop of cooling (and case) products.
Gordon made it over to Zalman's booth where he was able to see its brand new FX70, a passive heatsink with heatpipes and crinkled fins. Why crinkled? It allows Zalman to increase the surface area of the fins for superior cooling capabilities without taking up a ton of space in your case. If you need additional cooling, you can mount fans to either side. Here's a look:
Zalman also showed off a brand new fan design with blades that look like thunderbolts. The big feature, however, is a button on the front of the fan that allows you to select your fan speed. Check it out:
Before exiting Zalman's booth, Gordon caught on camera a couple of new cases. One is a prototype mini ITX case that's rather large for the form factor, but is intended for enthusiasts who want to use a small mobo but run a lot of hardware. The other case is the Zalman Z15, a bigger chassis with some nifty controls on top. In addition to fan speed controls, you can open up flaps on the top of the case for additional cooling. Take a look:

FS Meteor "Deep Convection" (M87/1) will study processes that affect carbon fluxes in the region of the north-western European continental slope and adjacent coastal and marginal seas (North Sea and Baltic Sea). The research cruise will mainly investigate the importance of winter convection on winter primary producers, fate of sinking biomass and the impact on the following spring bloom in distinct hydrographical regions in the north-eastern Atlantic and the northern North Sea.
Recent studies suggest that winter convection contributes to a high biomass of phytoplankton in the deep convective layer, which is in contradiction to the classical spring bloom critical depth model of phytoplankton bloom dynamics. In order to investigate the implications of these two regimes for biogeochemical fluxes and ecosystem dynamics we will investigate the mechanisms influencing winter phytoplankton production and biomass, resolve the fate of phytoplankton biomass produced during the winter convective period (i.e. flux to depth) and examine its impact on exit from diapause of Calanus finmarchicus, a key secondary producer in this system. Upon the onset of stratification convection is reduced and the system shifts to a classical spring bloom system dominated by large phytoplankton cells, contributing to the production of higher trophic levels, and to a second flux of carbon to the deep ocean, which is potentially mediated by higher trophic levels. In order to assess the magnitude of these fluxes throughout the course of evolution of these two regimes, the proposed multinational, interdisciplinary cruise will use state-of-the-art techniques to measure biogeochemical fluxes, and ecosystem structure and functioning. This cruise is a component of the EU contribution to the International BASIN (Basin-scale Analysis, Synthesis, and INtegration) program.

Following on from Robert Hunt's 2013 Grecian Britannia, this year's elegant yet powerful interpretation by Royal Mint engraver Jody Clark features an art deco Britannia, standing proudly in front of a three-dimensional globe, accompanied by a lion, its tail draped protectively around her feet.
Available in gold and silver, and in seven different sizes, most of them are only available in sets, something at which the Royal Mint excels.
For 2013 the Royal Mint satiated the appetites of proof coin collectors with a completely different design from the bullion that despite high prices was popular, no doubt due to the superb artwork.
For 2014 they've not only exceeded the high standard of last years artwork, they may just have released the most beautiful design in the Britannias history to date.

Britannia - A History
Britannia - the changing face of Britain - has represented the nation for almost 2,000 years. Synonymous with the British coinage for centuries, Britannia appeared on a flagship gold coin struck by The Royal Mint and named in her honour in 1987, she has remained ever since.
Britannia coins have over time become a showcase for British artists – the design selected for the Britannia of 2014 was created by Jody Clark, a talented Royal Mint engraver.
This new interpretation is contemporary, yet rich in imagery and fine details that simply gleam when perfected by The Royal Mint's Proof finish. In a double show of British pride Britannia is joined by the lion, tamed at her feet with its tail protectively swept around her robes, the pair an enduring display of British courage and strength.
These elements are exquisite in one ounce of 999 fine silver on these wonderful coins all presented beautifully in a display case with booklet and Certificate of Authenticity. Only 2,500 of these coins are available in this Limited Edition Presentation.
While the history books reveal a wealth of famous men – kings, leaders and even mythical saints – females have long been celebrated on the coins of Britain struck by The Royal Mint, each revealing a story, immortalising the influential women forever.
The obverse of coins have traditionally featured the portraits of monarchs, Her Majesty The Queen can be seen on Britain's circulating currency, the current iconic coinage portrait created by Ian Rank-Broadley FRBS.
The queens that have gone before her were also captured on the coinage of their reigns, not solely in their official effigy. A young Queen Victoria graced wonderful £5 pieces in the nineteenth century, her coinage portrait on the obverse and an attractive depiction of her as Una on its reverse, leading a lion inspired by Edmund Spenser's poem, The Faerie Queene.
The resulting combination is undoubtedly one that blends the feminine with the masculine – the strong queen taming the unleashed might of the lion, a powerful display of strength and courage

Lars Englund presents new works under the working title Teorem together with earlier works from the series "Borderlines."
Lars Englund has chosen this quotation from Omkonst by Susanne Slöör to describe one on the works from the series "Borderlines":
"The magnificent air globe that forms part of the heart of the exhibition is transformed into a powerful ritual sword dance, in which only the cuts in the air are visible, in alternating green and orange. But whereas the laser duel between Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker or battles in films like Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon tend towards overwrought kitsch, Englund's dance with the blades is as pure and pared down as a haiku poem.

WASHINGTON — For the final time as first lady, Michelle Obama honored 12 after-school and out-of-school-time organizations at the White House for the eighth annual National Arts and Humanities Youth Program Awards for creative youth development programs.
A young representative and adult staff member from each organization was recognized on stage and gave Obama a hug to audience applause. A few of the youth were so excited they opened their arms for a second warm embrace. The Sphinx Organization's Perfect Fourth String Quartet played an impressive finale performance before closing remarks, which Obama said was an example of how young people can do anything they set their minds to.
During her speech, Obama emphasized the importance of continuing the National Arts and Humanities Youth Program after President Barack Obama's term ends Jan. 20, 2017. "This has been a blast," she said at the conclusion of the ceremony Tuesday. "We are going to find ways to keep doing this long after we leave the White House."
The candidate pool began with 251 nominations and was narrowed to 50 finalists. The honorees were selected by the President's Committee on the Arts and Humanities for achieving a wide range of positive outcomes for the kids they work with, such as developing 21st-century skills, increasing academic achievement, graduation rates and college enrollment.
The award-winning organizations included the Bay Area Video Coalition, Sphinx Organization, West Michigan Center for the Arts and Technology's Teen Arts + Tech Program, Mexic-Arte Museum, New York Transit Museum's Subway Sleuths, California Indian Museum and Cultural Center's Tribal Youth Ambassadors, Kodiak Historical Society's Baranov Museum Youth History & Film Summer Intensive, Inquilinos Boricuas en Acción's Youth Development Program, Office on Children & Youth Institute for Innovation in Health & Human Services' Reading Road Show—Gus Bus, Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts of Miami-Dade County's AileyCamp Miami, St. Louis ArtWorks and The Theater Offensive's True Colors: Out Youth Theater. The international award went to Creative Youth Development in Cuba.
Kim Hartzler-Weakley, the Office on Children & Youth coordinator for children and youth services at the Institute for Innovation in Health and Human Services, said she was especially proud when Obama said she loved the Gus Bus, a mobile library that offers book checkouts and enrichment programs to low-income neighborhoods in Harrisonburg, Virginia. Their mission is to offer literature to kids who can't reach a library.
Eleven-year-old Gus Bus rider Sarah Hussein said she was nervous about hugging the first lady. "It was really fun and I was just so excited to hug her," she said.
Hartzler-Weakley said she hopes winning the award will attract donors and sponsors to help them buy two new buses so they can go greater distances than their current two buses allow, which limits the communities the program can reach. One of the most important lessons she has learned through the award-winning program is the importance of reaching kids where they are, she said. Part of the program's success Hartzler-Weakley also attributed to the staff's passion and their ability to collaborate with other organizations, area schools and businesses.
Regina Asborno, acting director of the Subway Sleuths of the New York Transit Museum, also hopes to use the acclaim from the award to grow their programming. Subway Sleuths uses the love of subway trains to bring kids with autism, Asperger's and pervasive developmental disorders together to practice social skills. She hopes the program can grow to include other things teenagers can get excited about, but they are looking for funding to continue operating.
Nine-year-old Subway Sleuth Ian Aquino said he was excited to meet "Mrs. Obama" and thank her for the award. Ian likes the speed and movement of the subway, saying his favorite train is the number 6. "My favorite part about trains are going in them," he said.
One of the exercises the Subway Sleuths use is for one child to act as toy train track architect and builder. "Through nonverbal communications, moving your head yes and no, the architect instructs the other kid how to build these train tracks," she said. "It's those cues that we take for granted of yes, no communication that we can reinforce through the games."
Asborno said she is excited to talk to members of other programs about ways to get kids excited about learning and building social skills. "We'd love to share everything we've learned, through failures and successes, so that we can pass along that information."

Black Mass (MA) ★★★½ stars
This is a violent and nasty movie about violent and nasty people, but it's well-acted and grimly interesting. It's based on the true story of South Boston Irish gangster James "Whitey" Bulger (Johnny Depp) who in the 1970s was recruited by his childhood friend, FBI agent John Connolly (Joel Edgerton) to act as an informant against a common enemy: the Italian mob.
But making such a deal is risky and it allows the cunning Bulger to become increasingly powerful in the criminal world while operating under the effective protection of the law and offering little in return, which Connolly is unable – or unwilling – to see until it is too late.
Depp, heavily and effectively made up, is chillingly good as Bulger, who could be kind to some but ruthless when it came to his own interests, and Edgerton is also impressive as the overconfident federal man with divided loyalties that prove to be his undoing. The supporting cast includes Benedict Cumberbatch as Bulger's brother Billy, a senator, Kevin Bacon as an FBI boss and Julianne Nicholson as Connolly's wife.
While not a true-crime film on the highest level, perhaps – it feels just a little short on detail and texture – this is still well worth a look.
There's also a short featurette.

SEO Considerations for Web Hosting
Choosing a web hosting solution that aids in your SEO efforts can be a challenging. In order to make an informed decision, you need take various factors into consideration, including features, technical support and price among other vital aspects. This article will provide some golden tips that will give you the best possible change of succeeding with your SEO campaign.
Company Background - In the web hosting industry, track record is everything. For this reason, it is important that you find out how long prospective hosts have been in the business. This is critical because new companies enter the market all the time but many of them fold within the first year. These flight-by-night hosts leave you out of your money and a website. Experience varies but you at least want to sign up with a company that has been around for a couple of years.
Services and Features - Apart from SEO tactics, you need to make yourself familiar with some of the technologies involved in the web hosting arena. For example, you need to have an idea of how much disk space and bandwidth your website will require to support files and traffic. You also might want to check out the email options for keeping in touch with your clients as well the provided tools designed to help you boost search engine rankings. Hosting providers are increasingly offering features such as keyword optimizers, web stat utilities, Google Webmaster tools, unique IP addresses and others that make it easier to optimize your website and maintain rankings.
Support Considerations - Whether SEO is involved or not, support is one of the most vital aspects of any hosting solution. This is one point that simply can't be stressed enough as the host forms that crutch you need to even run an optimized site. The hosting provider's support staff should be there whenever you need help whether it is a week day, week night or rare hour over the weekend. Finding this quality in a web host isn't as easy as it sounds because support on the market ranges from outstanding to virtually non-existent. You could be doing everything right but without quality support, your SEO efforts are likely to prove futile.
Cost Factor - The last consideration on our list relates to price because let's face it, no one ever wants to overpay for anything. You definitely want to keep your eyes on the price, especially when looking into a company that advertises their service as "SEO web hosting." They could be doing so because a special set of search engine optimization tools are included in the package, or simply trying to bank off a fast growing niche market. If you don't mind paying a little extra to boost your rankings, just make sure you are getting value for every dollar you invest.
There are several web hosts out there but few have your best interests in mind when it comes to SEO. This is why it is so vital to do your homework. Without a reliable hosting solution, you can optimize all you want and still won't even sniff the pages of Google.
