Sony announced the Q10 and the QX100 snap-on camera lenses for Android devices last year. And the company is all set to announce the successor tomorrow known as the QX1. But before the device is announced officially, a new leak has given us a brief look of what to expect from the Japanese manufacturer during tomorrow's event in Berlin.
Unlike last year's models, the Sony QX1 appears to have three components – a mount, a sensor and the lenses. So essentially there are three accessories which need to be attached to the smartphone or device of your choice. Also the camera this time is mirrorless, which makes it essential for a lens to be added. Last year's models only consisted of a mount and a sensor, so clearly Sony has taken it to the next level with the QX1.
It's a very decent product which is targeted towards shutter bugs who are never quite content with the camera offered by default on their smartphones. The QX1 comes with its very own flash and features like NFC, WiFi etc for quick sharing on the go.
It is said that the body and mount will set users back by €300 or $394, while the 16-50 mm lens will cost an extra €150 or $197 for the lenses. Evidently, the QX1 won't go easy on your wallets, but that's always expected from an accessory such as this. We expect to have more information on the QX1 by tomorrow.

God had asked basically what Job would do about the Leviathan. And Job gives a correct answer, as we can read in Moralia in Hiob, beginning of last book:
Because this is the last book of this work, and since, the more difficult places having been treated, those which remain are less obscure, it seems good to run through it with less attention and care. For as if we had traversed a mighty ocean, we now gain sight of the shore, and lowering the sails of our intention, are not borne along with the same force as before, but yet we still hold our way from the impulse of the former blast. The storm of our anxiety has, so to speak, abated, but its violence, through now moderated, yet still wafts us on to our station on the shore. After then the Lord had shewn to His faithful servant how strong and crafty is Leviathan His enemy, while He carefully disclosed his strength and craft, blessed Job replied to both, saying,
Chap. xlii. ver. 2. I know that Thou canst do all things, and that no thought is hid from Thee.
2. For against his huge strength he observed; I know that Thou canst do all things; but against his hidden machinations he subjoined; And no thought is hid from Thee. Whence he immediately upbraids the same Leviathan, saying;
Ver. 3. Who is he that hideth counsel without knowledge?
For Leviathan hides counsel without knowledge, because, though he is concealed from our infirmity by many frauds, he is yet disclosed to us by the holy inspiration of our Protector. He hides counsel without knowledge, because though he escapes the notice of those who are tempted, yet he cannot escape the notice of the Protector of the tempted. Having heard therefore the power and craft of the devil, having heard also the power of our Creator, which both mightly represses him, and mercifully protects us, we entreat thee, O blessed Job, not to conceal from us that which thou thinkest of thyself. It follows;
Therefore I have spoken foolishly, and things that above measure exceeded my knowledge.
3. All human wisdom, however powerful in acuteness, is foolishness, when compared with Divine wisdom. For all human deeds which are just and beautiful are, when compared with the justice and beauty of God, neither just nor beautiful, nor have any existence at all. Blessed Job therefore would believe that he had said wisely what he had said, if he did not hear the words of superior wisdom. In comparison with which all our wisdom is folly. And he who had spoken wisely to men, on hearing the Divine sayings, discourses more wisely that he is not wise. ...
I am subtly reminded of the Beowulf poet, to whom the dragon of Beowulf is also an image of the Devil.

Local Christmas Gift Ideas In Amarillo
Picking that perfect gift can be a challenge at times. It depends on who you are buying for, what their preferences are, and what's available in Amarillo.
The last days to shop for Christmas 2012 are approaching and the next few weeks will turn into a frenzy of shoppers at the mall and other stores. When looking for the perfect gift it helps to keep your eyes open to the local businesses as well as the national chains. The national chains have saturated the television with commercials for their products, but if you looking for that one-of-a-kind item it's better to take a look at your local stores.
Below is a list of items that you can probably only find in a local store that will definitely put a smiles on people's faces.
Silverland - Fantastic Tuscan Wall Panels
This is a weathered, rustic and complimentary collection of wall panels that can accent almost any decor. For those shopping for the decorators in their lives, you can't go wrong with this item. I know my wife would light up after opening this gift.
Top Notch Outfitters - Fly Fishing Equiment
It can be difficult to find high quality fly fishing gear and flys in Amarillo, and if you do, it's hard to find someone who's knowledgeable about the gear. For those buying for a fisherman this year, this is a great local place that can not only supply some great fishing gear, but also has staff that can help you pick exactly what your 'fisherman' is looking for.
Roasters Coffee & Tea Company - Bodum Blade Grinder & French Press
For those of us who love our coffee, we know that it is sacred. For the true coffee lover, a cup of Folgers just doesn't cut it. Fresh ground beans pushed through a french press gives that flavor and richness that you can't get from a drip pot. If you're shopping for a coffee lover, you will definitely see a big smile when they open this gift along with a fresh bag of dark roast beans from Roasters. I love this place.
Carries Collectables - Antique Potting
If you're shopping for an antique lover, it is crucial that you know their taste and what they look for. If you are shopping for a person who loves antique potting and clay work, then Carrie's can really offer just about everything you could ask for. Imagine if you were able to complete a collection and the joy it would bring to that person on Christmas morning.
Outdoor Element Sports - Mountain Bike
Do you have a mountain biker in your family? Imagine rolling this in after they open all of the 'other' Christmas presents. They would totally freak out. There is no greater gift for a mountain biker than a new bike that can handle any punishment they are willing to put it through. This will definitely make for a Merry Christmas.

The basic reason why people use social media is to connect with people and entertain themselves. They do not like to get bugged by business propositions and advertisements. If people would like to watch advertisements they would rather watch TV or listen to your sales pitch on YouTube. This is a place where people of all ages visit so that they are away from the advertising that appears everywhere. Never force your followers into listening about your business since they know about it already.
Understand on which platform you are posting and start off by entertaining and enlightening your followers. Ask them about their likes and dislikes. Start engaging them in conversations. When you do this, you will not be irritating your follower's social media experience instead you will be enhancing it.
You will build a trust with your followers and it will seem like your putting your relationship ahead of your bottom line. This will boost the engagement with your audience, increase your reach for future posts, the future posts which will feature your business or product.
Social media platforms make money by keeping people engaged. If you go to this site you will know in detail Smm panel . People or business page that post engaging content is rewarded by the social media platforms. When it comes to marketing your page the standard rules to be followed is "stand out or get shut out." Standing out doesn't mean you shout out about your social media page, especially not at the people who have chosen to follow you and your brand. Try to go with the flow and understand your customers by getting into their shoe. Before you post anything ask yourself whether this is of any value. By using this one mains strategy of engaging your followers you will attract more people who will like your social media site.

It's crunch time…our wedding is coming up, but a more immediate deadline I'm concerned with is our SCUBA certification course. Next week, James and I will be spending a few hours in a local pool learning and showing our skills in operating SCUBA equipment and getting around under water. This is an even bigger challenge for me, particularly, since I just learned actual swimming skills this summer (which I'm still working on).
So, I don't have much time to reminisce about my favorite vacation spots what with the being busy learning about the millions of ways you can die while SCUBA diving in my online coursework. For example, remember that really bad dentist you had a few years ago who gave you a filling? Well, if there's air in that filling, you'll be in for a painful SCUBA diving experience via "TOOTH SQUEEZE." OK, it's not necessarily fatal, but do I really need to worry about that too??
Anyhoo, I'll likely be holed up in our apartment studying so I can become an informed SCUBA diver…I promise the stories will be priceless!

My mom loves prowling the aisles at the Grocery Outlet for bargains and close-outs and stops in at least once a week to see whats new. I joined her hunt last weekend down in Salinas. I needed to pick up a bottle of white wine for the risotto wed planned for dinner.
I spotted a couple of good candidates for cooking wine, both Vin de Pays des Côtes de Gascogne whites, marked down to $2.99 from a suggested retail of $6. Were starting to see more of these on the retail shelves here, and the best of them are crisp, refreshing wines in the $6 to $9 range. The labels didnt identify the blend of grape varieties, but what would be typical for this simple country wine would be principally Ugni Blanc or Colombard with perhaps some Manseng or Sauvignon Blanc for aromatic interest. Ugni Blanc is the workhorse of this region, most of it ends up in the distilleries of Armagnac. Its called Trebbiano in Italy where it makes thin acidic white wines with little character.
I decided to take home the 1997, bottled by Charles Paris, negociant (in tiny letters on the back label) over the other for several reasons. 1) The bottle was clear and I could tell that it had healthy color (not oxidized), a strong lemon yellow. Color and flavor tend to be extracted together in the winemaking process, i.e., white wines that are clear as water will often taste washed out. 2) 1997 was a ripe, warm year and I was hoping the fruit may have achieved more flavor intensity than normal. 3) The importer was based in San Leandro, CA, and there was a good chance that this wine would not have been damaged in the distribution system. 4) I examined the capsules and corks on several bottles and they didnt show any signs of bad handling. Close-out wines are often damaged goods, e.g., too much heat in transit can ruin wines.
After a couple hours in the fridge to chill, I popped the cork and was pleasantly surprised. An attractive nose with grapefruit, lemon curd and maybe a whiff of honeysuckle and peach fuzz, light-medium body and fresh acid balance, tangy citrus fruit on the palate with no oak influence, and a clean, crisp finish. Not complex but very refreshing and cleanly made, and better than other examples of the style Ive tasted.
This wine is easily worth $8. If you enjoy unoaked Sauvignon Blanc or Soave in the under $10 price range, youll like this one at a bargain price. Keep a couple bottles in the fridge to enjoy during the last warm days of our Indian summer as an aperitif, mixed with crème de cassis for Kir, at the beach, or to nip over the stove. Drink now through year-end.
If the Bay Area Grocery Outlet near you doesnt have this bottle, the other one I considered was the 1998 from the same region, imported by Yvon Mau, also $2.99. Yvon Mau is national importer and producer of inexpensive Bordeaux wines and worth a bet at this price.

A tiny heart starts beating
In week 5 of pregnancy, your baby, technically called an embryo, measures a little over 1mm long1. But already their brain, spinal cord, and blood vessels are beginning to develop, albeit on a microscopic scale2. Their circulatory system is also developing and it's at around the end of week 5 that your baby's heart starts to beat1.
Meanwhile, the umbilical cord, which will deliver nutrients to your baby, is beginning to form2. The amniotic sac, soon to be filled with a clear, pale fluid to cushion your baby, starts to take shape too3.
This may be the week that you find out for certain that you're pregnant. If you're not convinced by the absence of your menstrual period and other symptoms such as tender breasts and tiredness, your hormone levels should be high enough at 5 weeks pregnant to confirm the news on a home pregnancy test4.
Is vitamin A safe?
In small doses, vitamin A is essential to the development of cells, skin, healthy vision and the immune system. Fortunately, a healthy, balanced diet is likely to provide all the vitamin A your baby needs. There's little to no risk of deficiency for pregnant mums in the UK – it's more common in developing countries where malnutrition is a problem.
"Your need for vitamin A increases only slightly during pregnancy."
What you need to be more aware of is not getting too much of this vital but potent nutrient, which in large amounts may cause development problems in your unborn baby5.
Vitamin A is available in two forms: as retinol from animal products, and from carotenoids, a group of substances found in brightly coloured fruit and vegetables that the body can convert into vitamin A.
The richest sources of vitamin A, including liver, liver pâté and non-pregnancy supplements that contain it, should be avoided6. If you are taking a multivitamin, now is the time to switch to a prenatal multivitamin that is tailored to the needs of you and your baby.
Next Steps
Nourish your baby with a balanced diet that includes the following sources of vitamin A:
- Cheese
- Some yogurts (those with a higher fat content)
- Fortified low-fat spreads
- Eggs (cook them well to reduce any risk of food poisoning)
Add the following sources of carotenoids to your shopping list7:
- Green, leafy vegetables, such as kale and spinach
- Cantaloupe melon, mangoes and apricots
- Orange and yellow vegetables, including carrots, peppers, sweet potatoes, butternut squash and pumpkin

DSquared2: I loved the 60's/70's mood and the super bright colors clashing with the black and white pieces. Thumbs up for the orange-ish lips!
I like the minimalism of Chloé collection. So clean and elegant, but never "in your face" (if this make any sense... :P)
Sorry this one is so short and english only but I've been freaking busy lately. Hope you all ha a nice and lovely week end!

Cost of Treatment
Treatment...................$1100.00* to $1500.00
TOTAL COST $1195.00 to $1595.00 (effective Jan. 1st, 2018)
The range in treatment fees is based on the dosage of I-131 that your cat requires. Your cat's dose can only be determined by examining the cat in person.
0.5 to 5.0 mCi.................$1100.00 (80% of cats we treat receive less than 5.0 mCi.)
5.01 to 10 mCi.................$1300.00
10.01 to 15 mCi...............$1500.00 (The rare cat with a markely elevated T4 (>25 ug/dl) )
The treatment fee includes the entire period of hospitalization .This examination and treatment fee will need to be paid when your cat is left for treatment. We accept all major credits cards, Care Credit, and cash. Checks are not accepted. (Our Tacoma location requires exact change if you plan to pay with cash.)
If you would like to use Care Credit, you may apply ahead of time at www.carecredit.com. We honor the 6-month, interest-free payment plan.
Follow-up involves returning your cat to your primary care veterinarian at 1 and 3 months after treatment for a physical examination and follow-up blood tests to determine if the thyroid has returned to normal. The fees for this will be based on what is done and are separate from the 131I therapy. A form will be completed by your primary care veterinarian and faxed to us. Should we see any concerns, we will contact your veterinarian. Your veterinarian will report the results to you.
For Cats Flying in from Alaska, or out of state...
Once your cat arrives from the airport, we will immediately check their blood pressure. This helps us evaluate their cardiac state and if the blood pressure is too high, we can intervene medically.
Blood pressure.............$42.60
Treatment...................$1100.00 to $1500.00
Retreatment Policy
We will retreat at no additional charge within 12 months of the original treatment date if the hyperthyroid state is not resolved with the initial treatment.
To be eligible for this "no additional charge" option, you MUST have had the required 1 and 3 month rechecks after I-131 therapy has been completed. These tests should be completed within the prescribed 3 month post-treatment period. Should unforseen circumstances arise during that 3 month time period, an additional 3 months grace period will be allowed. If the 2 follow-up rechecks have not been successfully completed within 6 months of I131 treatment, any cat who then appears to require a second I131 treatmen will NOT QUALIFY FOR THE NO ADDITIONAL COST OPTION but will be considered a recurrence and there will be a fee equaling 50% of the original treatment fee.

In an exclusive interview with BlackAndGold.com, University of Texas (Defensive Backs) coach Duane Akina provides a unique and detailed perspective on Kenny Vaccaro, the Saints top pick in the 2013 draft.
BlackAndGold.com: Coach Akina, we know that this is a very busy time of the year for recruiting new prospects at the university. We appreciate your taking the time to speak with us.
Coach Akina: Its my pleasure; glad to have the opportunity.
BlackAndGold.com: Did Kenny get a scholarship to play for the Longhorns?
Coach Akina: Yes. He was recruited (from a smaller high school in Texas), but his stock rose tremendously after we brought him and other high school players to a football camp. The players were told that the winning team would get a Univ. of Texas ball cap. The way Kenny was playing, you would think that the prize was a million bucks. You might also want to know that we brought Kenny in as a wide receiver, and he played at the receiver position for all three days of the camp. But as each day of camp passed, I saw how Kenny was giving 100% and throwing himself all over the field on every play. Thats when I told our wide receivers coach (Bobby Kennedy) that I wanted us to offer Vaccaro a scholarship --- as a Defensive Back.
BlackAndGold.com: What stands out about Kenny as a player ON THE FIELD?
Coach Akina: Youll find that he separates himself from other players by his passion for the game. When he puts the uniform on for the Saints, the defense will love him; the offense will hate him! At Saints practices, the offense will probably be asking: When can we get that guy to slow down? He gives his best each day. He is 216 lbs., and is very physical. Hes flexible in the positions he can cover on defense. He can line up in the slot, he can play man to man, cover 2, as well as weak and strong safety. Hes a great blitzer, and (as I mentioned before) he has a great passion for how he plays. Hes unselfish, and will play special teams or wherever hes needed. On special teams hes not afraid to be the gunner, and has two blocked punts during his time here.
BlackAndGold.com: What stands out about Kenny Vaccaro on the SIDELINES AND LOCKER ROOM?
Coach Akina: First and foremost, he gets the respect of his locker room. As a rookie, he will respect the veterans. Hes confident in his ability, and will take time to be aware of Saints traditions and policies. He will know where and how he fits in. He will train and prepare while remaining passionate for the game. Hes a tough kid both physically and mentally. All of Kennys actions will gain the respect of his coaches, teammates and fan base.
BlackAndGold.com: Coach, Im not wanting to offend you or the Longhorns. But your 2012 team (like the 2012 Saints) was not quite up to the standard youve set in recent years. Yet, despite that, Kenny was recognized as a top talent nationwide. Why do you think that Kenny is so highly regardless, even though the Longhorns were not in contention for a National title?
Coack Akina: We actually won 9 games in 2012, and a lot of teams would have liked to have that record. In recent years, the Texas Longhorns have been one of the few major universities whose football team won 10 or more games for 10 years in a row. Kenny was actually a part of the Longhorns 09 team that played Alabama in the National Championship game. I guess you could say that Kenny carries a long and proud tradition of Longhorn teams that have set the standard high. Longhorn Safeties who preceded Kenny are Michael Griffin, Earl Thomas and Michael Huff. Kenny takes it as a mantle that was passed to him, and hes carrying on our long tradition of having great Safeties. He plays with tremendous pride, and has the attitude that he will take the team on his back if he has to.
BlackAndGold.com: Is there a present or past NFL player that Kenny models, or reminds you of?
Coach Akina: With respect to game preparation and knowing his position I think of Earl Thomas. If youre talking about being a very physical player and a hard thumper, it has to be Chuck Cecil, whom I coached at the Univ. of Arizona.
BlackAndGold.com: Not all players make an NFL roster. What qualities about Kenny give him a shot at the Saints final roster?
Coach Akina: His flexibility, both physically and mentally. Some players are gifted physically, but are not consistent in bringing the right approach to the game (lane protection, taking the right angles, wrapping a player up with a tackle, technique in shedding blockers, etc). Then, there are other players who know what to do and HOW to do it, but lack the physical attributes necessary to succeed as an NFL player. With Kenny, you get the complete package. He can literally do it all, and thats not an exaggeration.
BlackAnd Gold.com: Did you see the Sports Science segment on Kenny?
Coach Akina: Yes, I did. I thought it was great. One of the things they highlighted in the video was Kennys closing speed and his explosiveness. It reminds you of Patrick Peterson. The Sports Science segment is yet another reminder that Kennys the real deal.
BlackAndGold.com: Is there a game in Kennys career that stands out as one in which he performed as a stud player?
Coach Akina: There were several, but the game last year vs. West Virginia was probably the best. Here you have a receiver (Tavon Austin) who an NFL team traded to MOVE UP to get as the #8 pick overall (because he was arguably the best receiver in the draft) that Kenny Vaccaro covered for about 80% of the game. Kenny did a great job in limiting Austins opportunities, while remaining stout in run support for our team. Another game was vs. Texas A&M, which we now call The Eternal Scoreboard) because it was the last time Texas would play the Aggies in a regular season (as we had done traditionally in years past). Kenny played big in that game, and came up with an interception. Kennys play was key because we came from behind vs. the Aggies and won on a last second field goal with 0:02 seconds left. We won In another game a couple of years ago, Kenny defended the all-time receiving yards leader in the Big-12: Ryan Swoops. Kenny shut him down, and took him out of the game (for production).
Watch this video showing Vaccaros play vs. WV Mountaineers. Key in on his play at the 2:00 min mark.
BlackAndGold.com: Competition will be tough on the Saints at the defensive back position. What is your prediction for Kenny Vaccaro: starter, backup or practice squad?
Coach Akina: I dont know who Kenny will be competing with for a spot on the roster. But I believe it will be very difficult to keep him off the field.
BlackAndGold.com: Any predictions for the Saints in 2013 with Head Coach Sean Payton back in the saddle?
Coach Akina: Im a Saints fan, and a big Sean Payton fan. I knew him when I was coaching at Arizona, and we played San Diego State when
Sean Payton was their running backs coach. Their team had a running back by the name of Marshall Faulk, who put up over 300 yds. of offense on us single-handedly. The Saints have all of the pieces, and Coach Payton knows how to use all of them well, The Saints also have one of the greatest QBs in the game in Drew Brees. No matter which level of play youre on, be it Pop Warner, High School, College or Pro, you need a good quarterback. The Saints have one of the best. I see Coach Payton leading the Saints to a great season this year.
BlackAndGold.com: Any final thoughts, coach?
Coach Akina: That great Saints fan base will really love Kenny Vaccaro. I am confident of that.
BlackAndGold.com: Coach, it was great to get your thoughts on Kenny Vaccaro. On behalf of BlackAndGold.com and Saints fans everywhere, thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule. All the best to the Longhorns in 2013: Hook em Horns!
Coach Akina: Youre welcome, all the best to the Saints.

Anyway, the interview was an interesting read, and I do really find your pieces enlightening - especially compared to the pieces you find on the "professional" media sources.

|Fairy Trail
Time for the January 2013 ABS challenge !
Last month I waited and waited and waited some more,
for the beads I wanted to use to be delivered .
I hope never to repeat that frustration!
This month I asked myself the question
What comes first... the Beads or the Design ?
Of course the answer is always different .
Sometimes I see the inspiration and an idea pops right into my head.
Then I hope to have the right components already waiting in my stash !
But ,sometimes I just start pulling out beads that match the colors .
I hope something will call out loud and clear to me.
This month it was a piece of olive /gold lace that caught my eye.
When I first saw the painting, I thought maybe I'll make some sort of peacock.
But, the fantasy, fairy tale quality of the theme haunted me .
The lace mimicked the color and texture of the peacock's tale .
Vintage lace seemed perfect for a Fairy Princess piece of jewelry .
The lace was sturdy enough to press into the black clay for texture too!
I make flowers whenever I can . I decided my art bead would a delicate floral with peacock blue center. Then I found a few metal ferns and some glass beads for bling .To finish it all off I used a bit of guilders paste to high-lite the black clay.
Do we ever outgrow our Fairy Princess dress- up days?
I hope not .
This week
create a dress up design
Bead Happy !

I may be a little biased, but I think our design team is the best! I am loving our Spring/Summer Design Team How To-sday posts. Today we have an awesome How To from Design Team member Candace Zentner. Candace shows us what we can do with die cuts.
• • • • •
Hey everyone! Candace here today! I don't know about you, but I LOVE playing with die cuts and cutting files! My favorite thing to do with my cuts is add detail and shading for dimension. I want to share some of the techniques I use, and how you can easily make your cuts look amazing!
I cannot create a die cut without using my Colorbox Fluid Chalk ink. I add shading to almost each piece to create dimension. To add shading, I start with subtle shading by tapping my ink along the edges of each piece and add more color as I go, if needed. There are lots of brands of fluid chalk ink that can be used, and regular chalk with a pompom also works great!
On some pieces, a combination of colors can be used to achieve a more dramatic shaded look. On the yellow oval below, I added quite a bit of shading with a yellow ink then added a touch of a darker yellow right along the edge of the piece.
A lighter shade of ink can also create a neat effect. On the piece of my squirrel's tail, I shaded with a cream color.
After I added the shading to each piece and assembled my squirrel, I used a white gelly roll pen to add some small faux stitches and doodles. My finishing touch was some Glossy Accents over the eyes and nose to give them some shine. Take a peek at the plain squirrel, with no chalking or faux stitching, compared to the squirrel with added details!
Here is how I used my little squirrel on a card!
• • • • •
I am not sure if I have ever seen such a cute squirrel! I am going to try some of these tricks for sure. Time to get out my die cut machine. Now for a little business. We had such a fun Blog Hop last Friday. The American Crafts DIY Thickers are such a fun and versatile product. We need a winner... so here we go, the winner of the $20 scrapbookSTEALS.com gift certificate is:
Venetia Holbrook
Let our customer service know you are this month's blog hop winner in an email with your address to email@example.com and we will get you your $20 gift certificate!

About our sister organization in Gambia
Mr. Deen visited his coutry of origin, Gambia in May 2016. He founded an organization in Gambia as well: the Mahatma Gandhi Foundation for Gender and Equality. The organization has already been registered in May. During his stay, Mr, Deen has already started the relevant education in Gambian schools.
The celebrations of the 15 March 1848
revolution and freedom fight of Hungary
are in the memory of the birth of a nation. The significance of the events of
1848-1849 is that the people of Hungary
started to think of themselves as members of the Hungarian nation, and together
they acted for it, many of them also sacrificing their lives. Among them, there
were Hungarians, Germans, Jewish, Gypsy people, and many more of other
different nationalities. On 17 March 2015 we remembered those Roma freedom
fighters and revolutionists who gave their lives for the independence of Hungary and for
the nation. The event was organized by the Farkas János Foundation and took
place in the Buda Castle in the Institute and Museum of Military History.
Tolerance Education Project
The goal of this project was to increase high-school students education in the field of human rights, especially anti-racism. To achieve this goal a 45 minutes long workshop for 15 participants was held. Between the participants there were students from different minorities.
The workshop was held:
on 13th of February 2015, at the Mándy Iván Szakképzõ Iskola és Speciális Szakiskola in Budapest, Hungary
Materials and resources:
For the Workshop we used the Football for Development Handbook, 2011 ( www.footballfordevelopment.net) and SPIN – European Sport Inclusion Network publications.
The participants were 14 years old, Hungarian high-school students. Some of them were from the Roma minority living in Hungary.
First wee screened a 25 minutes long presentation about human rights, children's rights and racism. The presentation was made by the Mahatma Gandhi Human Rights Organization.
After the screening we managed a workshop, where we asked different questions from the students ( For example: What is racism?, What do you know about racism?, What do you think about racism? Have you ever met racism in your life?, Do you know, what is a connection between human rights and sport?, Have you ever met racism in sport or during football matches? Why is it important to educate girls?, What do you know about children's rights? etc.). During the workshop we tried to target all the participants and to establish constructive dialogs.
Students understood the importance of human rights, children's rights and the importance of equality in education and in sports.
All participants were happy about the workshop and they reported positive feedback. Schools are the second home for children and this school should be an incredible example for other schools. The ideology and the atmosphere of this school have a great influence on children's behaviour and understanding.

1. Some papers that I collect with full intentions of grading just happen to find their way into the recycling bin. For a couple different reasons. 1. "Ugh what happened that day?! Why are these scores so bad?! Let's teach this again and try another day." or 2. "WHOA how did I get so many papers in this pile to grade....with grades due next week?! Oh I have a lot for this subject, we can let this one go."
2. We have a routine for collecting papers. At this point in the year I would hope my students know the difference between math, science, reading, etc. Except EVERY SINGLE TIME when we go to turn in a paper I get "Mrs. S. what subject is this? Is this reading?" REALLY HONEY?! With MATH problems on it?!
3. Sometimes I extend morning work time just a teeeeeeny bit longer than necessary... because I just need a few more minutes to get myself
4. Annie and Moby have become a staple the past couple weeks. Even without a projector. We just turn around an iMac and we all watch on one small screen. Teacher's gotta stay sane during testing season!
5. That motion sensor in the corner of the classroom.... didn't you know it is REALLY a video camera? That's right friends. Don't try to lie to me because I will just go "watch the video from the camera". Love that thing!
6. Sometimes we earn "bonus recess" for nothing other than it was a nice day and we need to be out of the four walls of our classroom.
7. After state testing is over, we may or may not listen to Disney World park music all day!
8. I tell my students that 75% or above is passing, when in reality it is 70%. But in reality 70% IS NOT proficient on TCAP so might as well prepare them in advance. And if they are at least striving for the 75% to make me happy, then we can hope for the same on TCAP.
9. We sent progress reports home last week. 21 students and one teacher.... ONE parent noticed and sent me a note that mine were the THIRD nine weeks, not the FOURTH. Ummm ooops? I didn't even notice it and my grades are actually in!
10. I am the worst at planning for holidays. All of a sudden it's "oh it's Mother's Day?! Quick bust out the construction paper, crayons, scissors, and glue and make a card!"

"'The motorcade is now passing Haga southern gates,' said the radio announcer. 'The streets are absolutely seething with demonstrators. They're shouting slogans in chorus. It's even worse at Haga Courthouse.'
Heydt looked at the television screens to see for himself. The slogans could be heard less well on television and the reporter did not bother to mention them. Instead, he said, 'The Senator's bullet-proof, custom-built car is now passing Stallmastaregarden, where the government is giving a gala banquet tonight.'
The moment was very close.
'At this moment the car with the Senator and the Prime Minister is leaving Solna and crossing the Stockholm city boundary.'
Very, very close."
The idea of knowing the face and final movements of terrorists is something that has become all too common in the last few years as the video taped final statements are broadcast after the suicide bombers wreak their terrible havoc.
But back in the 1970s terrorism was a faceless secret activity where people planted bombs with out the intention of either taking their own lives or getting caught. It is this type of terrorist, ruthlessly efficient but a career bomber and political assassin, that the Swedish police find themselves trying to defend a visiting US senator against.
Weaving through this story is not just a couple of sub plots, plenty of detail on character and the personal lives of the main protagonists but also plenty of social context. Sjowall and Wahloo don't just write books that contain policemen solving crimes they put those crime fighting efforts in a context that is not always a good one. The Vietnam war is in its final stages and the police have become an armed force of repression against not those that protest against the war but against too many normal citizens.
In this environment Martin Beck has to coordinate attempts to stop the assassination of the deeply unpopular US senator. There are moments in the cat and mouse game with the terrorists where the book is so visual you turn the pages as if watching a film.
The police know the identity of one of the terrorists Richard Heydt and in the end it becomes a personal battle between him and Gunvald Larsson who sets his sights on bringing him to justice.
The sense of failure is always in the air and there are numerous points where your faith in Beck, well established over nine previous books, is seriously tested.
But if there is one thing the couple know how to do it is to deliver a story that kicks into a higher gear as it reaches the final third and the pace is evident again here.
Putting this alongside all the other Beck novels it has to be considered one of the better ones. But you could never come to this without knowing about the past laid down in the previous books. Neither is it possible to get top the end of this 10 book series without a deep appreciation and respect for the husband and wife team that wrote them. Reading them has been one of my best reading discoveries of recent years.

Open Source Startup Inktank Sets Gaze on Ubuntu ServerMay 17, 2012, 12:00 (0 Talkback[s])
(Other stories by Christopher Tozzi)
As a company, Inktank, one of the open source ecosystem's newest commercial enterprises, is only days old. But it has already made a determined foray into the Linux server market with the announcement this week of integration of the Ceph distributed file system into Ubuntu 12.04. Here's the scoop, and what it says about both Inktank and Ubuntu.
Launched earlier this month, Inktank is the creation of the Ceph development team, led by Sage Weil. Weil started writing the Ceph code in 2004 as part of his Ph.D. dissertation at USC Santa Cruz and continued to develop it after graduating in 2007.

Leon Reid IV, a 30s-something Brooklyn artist, wants to install a giant spider on the cables of the Brooklyn Bridge in time for Halloween 2014.
Reid was inspired by the cable elements of the famed landmark which could resemble a spider's web. He's calling his vision "A Spider Lurks in Brooklyn," and is now raising the estimated $800,000 for the project and seeking official approval.
The spider would be 60 feet long, 30 feet wide and about 15 feet tall, resembling the huge balloons of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade.
Public art used to be the quiet and stunning sculptures of Alexander Calder. But lately, many projects have different components. A couple of years ago in New York, there were "waterfalls" up and down the East River. In Washington, starting this week, the D.C. Commission on the Arts and Humanities is sponsoring a citywide public art project, called "5X5" that has interactives, sound and shapes in 25 installations.

Hello nerds and nerdesses, welcome to the Osai Effect
Christmas is already around the corner and the end of the year is already in sight. We already dropped our own Christmas list a while back and so this time we're giving you some select Tunes From Way Back. The songs on our playlist today are what we call Evergreen. Pure, indigenous African music dredged from the edge of an era. These are songs one can enjoy any day, anytime! Play them for your folks and we can guarantee you would put a smile on their faces 😉 Without further ado, let's jump right in!
This week, we have at number 5 a lovely track from the late 90s. Although not exactly an evergreen, we are however quite sure some of us remember the song and can appreciate it. We give y'all Love Me Jeje by Seyi Sodimu!
Download HERE
At number 4 we have a track a number of us must have rocked and danced to growing up. The intro and instrumentals remain distinctive and awesome. A true evergreen song and a wonderful track out of our dear Mother Africa, we give y'all Gaou by Magic System!
Download HERE
Although this may not be in the same category as the rest of the other songs, we just could not skip this song. This is a song that is so full of pomp and beautiful lyrics. Very slow yet danceable, very unique and lovely. We give y'all Prayer for the Youth by Lágbájá!
Download HERE
Making the number 2 spot this week is one of the very definitions of evergreen. A massive hit in the 80s and 90s, a great, great song by our very own Mike Okri. Here he is with Omoge!

And finally, at our number 1 spot is the man referred to as Independence Child. The father of Zigima music, a son of the soil, a wonderful musician. We are ecstatic to give you Because of English by our very own Bright Chimezie!

The Stranger by Albert Camus
Turning toward the dock, he pointed a finger at me, and went on in the same strain. I really couldn't understand why he harped on this point so much. Of course, I had to own that he was right; I didn't feel much regret for what I'd done. Still, to my mind he overdid it, and I'd have liked to have a chance of explaining to him, in a quite friendly, almost affectionate way, that I have never been able really to regret anything in all my life. I've always been far too much absorbed in the present moment, or the immediate future, to think back.
We are. Or more precisely, it is our past selves who are the strangers to our present selves, absorbed as they are, like Camus's protagonist, in their present moments and immediate futures.
There are clues to this interpretation scattered throughout the text. Early on, we see it in the behavior of others observed by the protagonist.
Twice a day, at eleven and six, the old fellow takes his dog for a walk, and for eight years that walk has never varied. You can see them in the rue de Lyon, the dog pulling his master along as hard as he can, till finally the old chap misses a step and nearly falls. Then he beats his dog and calls it names. The dog cowers and lags behind, and it's his master's turn to drag him along. Presently the dog forgets, starts tugging at the leash again, gets another hiding and more abuse. Then they halt on the pavement, the pair of them, and glare at each other; the dog with terror and the man with hatred in his eyes. Every time they're out, this happens. When the dog wants to stop at a lamppost, the old boy won't let him, and drags him on, and the wretched spaniel leaves behind him a trail of little drops. But, if he does it in the room, it means another hiding.
Our absorption in the present prevents us, like the old fellow and his dog, from seeing the repeated patterns of behavior that make up the bulk of our existence. When pulled too quickly forward, when stressed, we react the same way, every time, almost as if programmed, oblivious to the recklessness shown by our past selves, by the strangers whose behavior we might otherwise find farcical and objectionable.
Like characters in a novel, any novel, we are archetypes.
"I'm not one who looks for trouble," he explained, "only I'm a bit short-tempered. That fellow said to me, challenging-like, 'Come down off that streetcar, if you're a man.' I says, 'You keep quiet, I ain't done nothing to you.' Then he said I hadn't any guts. Well, that settled it. I got down off the streetcar and I said to him, 'You better keep your mouth shut, or I'll shut it for you.' 'I'd like to see you try!' says he. Then I gave him one across the face, and laid him out good and proper. After a bit I started to help him get up, but all he did was to kick at me from where I lay. So I gave him one with my knee and a couple more swipes. He was bleeding like a pig when I'd done with him. I asked him if he'd had enough, and he said, 'Yes.'
We act and react in predictable ways, ways that are destructive to ourselves and to our well-being, but ways we are unable to change no matter how often we repeat them.
And when the more sensitive among this realize this, as Camus's protagonist does, we draw the wrong conclusion, thinking that this slavery to the strangers within our past means not only that our paths forward are unalterable, but that our own conscious choices have no power to affect the trajectory of our lives.
The sun glinted on Raymond's revolver as he handed it to me. But nobody made a move yet; it was just as if everything had closed in on us so that we couldn't stir. We could only watch each other, never lowering our eyes; the whole world seemed to have come to a standstill on this little strip of sand between the sunlight and the sea, the twofold silence of the reed and stream. And just then it crossed my mind that one might fire, or not fire--and it would come to absolutely the same thing.
Except, of course, that our actions do matter, just as the protagonist's decision to fire matters, obviously, even to him in the waning echoes of the gunshots.
Then everything began to reel before my eyes, a fiery gust came from the sea, while the sky cracked in two, from end to end, and a great sheet of flame poured down through the rift. Every nerve in my body was a steel spring, and my grip closed on the revolver. The trigger gave, and the smooth underbelly of the butt jogged my palm. And so, with that crisp, whipcrack sound, it all began. I shook off my sweat and the clinging veil of light. I knew I'd shattered the balance of the day, the spacious calm of this beach on which I had been happy. But I fired four shots more into the inert body, on which they left no visible trace. And each successive shot was another loud, fateful rap on the door of my undoing.
Moments of clarity like this punctuate our lives, so profound that they seem to change the world around us, removing, as Camus called it, our clinging veils of light. But whether they happen to us in the real world, or to fictional characters in a novel's climactic scene, they are always short-lived, and we inevitably find ourselves separated from them, from the dramatic actions and the strangers that performed them. Like the protagonist, we become imprisoned, he in an actual jail, and us in the complacency of our commonness.
I waited for the daily walk in the courtyard or a visit from my lawyer. As for the rest of the time, I managed quite well, really. I've often thought that had I been compelled to live in the trunk of a dead tree, with nothing to do but gaze up at the patch of sky just overhead, I'd have got used to it by degrees. I'd have learned to watch for the passing of birds or drifting clouds, as I had come to watch for my lawyer's odd neckties, or, in another world, to wait patiently till Sunday for a spell of love-making with Marie. Well, here, anyhow, I wasn't penned in a hollow tree trunk. There were others in the world worse off than I. I remembered it had been one of Mother's pet ideas--she was always voicing it--that in the long run one gets used to anything.
Indeed we do. Camus makes the other characters in his short novel view our protagonist as an inhuman monster, someone "wholly without a moral sense." And this, I know from Wikipedia is reportedly the initial idea from which the novel was spawned.
But I think Camus is doing something more complicated here. The protagonist is not an Other, a Grendel, a monster that lives outside our human family. The novel certainly can be read that way, but it has much more revelatory power if it is read another way. The protagonist is, in fact, an Everyman, a Walter Mitty, a sympathetic doppleganger who resembles us perhaps far more than we would care to admit.
And when that doppleganger is pushed to the breaking point, when his death is brought close to the centrality of his awareness (in the novel it is the arrival of a priest offering absolution before the protagonist's execution), he reacts in the way any of us would react. In anger, in frustration, and in terror of the seeming fatalism of it all.
Then, I don't know how it was, but something seemed to break inside me, and I started yelling at the top of my voice. I hurled insults at him, I told him not to waste his rotten prayers on me; it was better to burn than to disappear. I'd taken him by the neckband of his cassock, and, in a sort of ecstasy of joy and rage, I poured out on him all the thoughts that had been simmering in my brain.
Hark, now. Here comes the seething truth Camus is saying lies beneath everything we think we understand about our lives.
He seemed so cocksure, you see. And yet none of his certainties was worth one strand of a woman's hair. Living as he did, like a corpse, he couldn't even be sure of being alive. It might look as if my hands were empty. Actually, I was sure of myself, sure about everything, far surer than he; sure of my present life and of the death that was coming. That, no doubt, was all I had; but at least that certainty was something I could get my teeth into--just as it had got its teeth into me. I'd been right, I was still right, I was always right. I'd passed my life in a certain way, and I might have passed it in a different way, if I'd felt like it. I'd acted thus, and I hadn't acted otherwise; I hadn't done x, whereas I had done y or z. And what did that mean? That, all the time, I'd been waiting for this present moment, for that dawn, tomorrow's or another's day's, which was to justify me. Nothing, nothing had the least importance, and I knew quite well why. He, too, knew why. From the dark horizon of my future a sort of slow, persistent breeze had been blowing toward me, all my life long, from the years that were to come.
This may sound like the fatalism I described earlier, the despair that comes with consciousness that nothing one choose to do matters, that the path has already been determined and that the entirety of one's task is described by the practice of walking it. But it isn't. There is something deeper and more primal going on here. For note, the protagonist is not depressed over his seeming lack of choices. Quite the reverse. He is positively manic.
And on its way that breeze had leveled out all the ideas that people tried to foise on me in the equally unreal years I then was living through. What difference could they make to me, the deaths of others, or a mother's love, or his God; or the way a man decides to live, the fate he thinks he chooses, since one and the same fate was bound to "choose" not only me but thousands of millions of privileged people who, like him, called themselves my brothers. Surely, surely he must see that?
No, he doesn't. The protagonist sees it, and now the reader, and no one else. That's where the mania comes from. The present and painful reality of it all, and how oblivious, how much of a stranger, the rest of the world seems to be to it.
Every man alive was privileged; there was only one class of men, the privileged class. All alike would be condemned to die one day; his turn, too, would come like the others'. And what difference could it make if, after being charged with murder, he were executed because he didn't weep at his mother's funeral, since it all came to the same thing in the end? The same thing for Salamano's wife and for Salamano's dog. That little robot woman was as "guilty" as the girl from Paris who had married Masson, or as Marie, who wanted me to marry her. What did it matter if Raymond was as much my pal as Celeste, who was a far worthier man? What did it matter if at this very moment Marie was kissing a new boy friend? As a condemned man himself, couldn't he grasp what I meant by that dark wind blowing from my future?
I have avoided discussing the novel's characters or its plot with careful intent. The Stranger is not a novel that turns on characters or plot. It turns, rather, on ideas, indeed, the one powerful idea of our own death that we must all come to terms with if we ever hope to transcend it, to act in opposition to the patterns of thought and behavior that keeps us a stranger to ourselves. Even though that realization only makes us a stranger to the rest of humankind. As the protagonist muses in the novel's closing lines…
It was as if that great rush of anger had washed me clean, emptied me of hope, and, gazing up at the dark sky spangled with its signs and stars, for the first time, the first, I laid my heart open to the benign indifference of the universe. To feel it so like myself, indeed, so brotherly, made me realize that I'd been happy, and that I was happy still. For all to be accomplished, for me to feel less lonely, all that remained to hope was that on the day of my execution there should be a huge crowd of spectators and that they should greet me with howls of execration.

ONE of the many zany ideas that had apparently been doing the rounds in the run up to the Partition included the demand to move the iconic Taj Mahal to the promised land of Pakistan. Thankfully, no one took it seriously, not even the leaders of the Pakistan movement, and the Taj Mahal has remained the most celebrated of India's national monuments and the symbol of its composite culture.
It is not just its ethereal beauty that makes this architectural marvel, carved out of sheer white marble, one of the Seven Wonders of the World; the extraordinary history of Emperor Shah Jahan's love and devotion for his beloved Mumtaz that makes the Taj Mahal — the eternal symbol of love. Not for nothing has it remained the most photographed monument in history and is rightly celebrated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Taking a picture (selfies these days, of course) with the Taj Mahal in the background remains the dream of every foreign tourist to India — including those from across the border. Most visiting heads of governments and foreign leaders also try to squeeze in a visit to Agra in their itineraries.
Since Independence, it has been the tradition of Indian leaders to gift a Taj Mahal replica to all foreign guests. What better way to celebrate and cement new friendships and partnerships than with the exquisite symbol of love! Even Vajpayee, the BJP's first prime minister, respected that tradition.
However, given the hate and hostility that this popular monument to love has lately been attracting from the Hindutva, I am not sure how long the Taj Mahal would maintain its celebrated status.
It all started changing, with the arrival of Narendra Modi (who else!) on the scene. While Hindutva's "love" for all things Muslim and Mogul is hardly a secret and is as old as its history itself, it is the man from Gujarat who started demonstrating it at every opportunity.
So the Taj Mahal, the ultimate representation of love, goes out the window and is replaced by the Bhagavad Gita, the Hindu holy book whose backdrop is the epic war of Mahabharata. Which is what US President Barack Obama received after those endless hugs and photo ops in Delhi, once the seat of the Muslim rule and, what Modi calls, the "1200 years of slavery."
As is the nature of fascism, Hindutva's project to paint India saffron, including its past, has now been taken to absurd extremes with the Uttar Pradesh government headed by Yogi Adityanath dropping the Taj Mahal from its tourism campaign. The 32-page booklet titled 'Uttar Pradesh Tourism – Its High Potential' issued by the state government has omitted its most famous monument!
It is like France deciding to drop the Eiffel Tower as its most celebrated monument or the United States downgrading the exalted status enjoyed by New York's Statue of Liberty.
Anyone crazy enough to even toy with such loony ideas would be locked away in a mental asylum. In India, however, they have been chosen to rule and run amok as they please.
Lest anyone thought the omission had been inadvertent, UP's Minister for Religious and Minority Affairs has emphasized that the move had been deliberate as the Taj Mahal does not represent the Hindu heritage and culture.
Explaining the move, Minister Laxmi Narayan Chaudhary pointed out that the BJP government in UP is 'rashtravadi' (nationalist) and runs on 'dharma niti' (religious principles). And we all thought India was still governed by its secular and democratic constitution!
The minister has been kind enough to suggest that the Gorakhnath Temple of Gorakhpur, whose chief priest happens to be none other than his boss, chief minister Adityanath, should replace the Taj Mahal as the symbol of India's largest state!
Which reminded me of an exchange between two foreign tourists a friend shared on Facebook:
First tourist: Do you know some official in India has removed Taj Mahal from the list of tourism destinations of Uttar Pradesh?
Second tourist: What on earth is Uttar Pradesh?
Seriously though, where are we headed? Where is this perpetual, manic Hindutva obsession to turn back the block and break away from the 1000-year old Muslim past of the country going to eventually land India?
The wound of the mindless destruction of the Babri Masjid in Ayodhya is still fresh and the same forces have now turned their hate-filled rage towards the ultimate epitome of love.
Just as they gradually built the 'case' against the 16th century Babri Masjid claiming it had been built at the 'exact' place where Lord Ram was born eons ago, the Parivar has now dipped into its bag of tricks to target the Taj Mahal and the image of its love-sick architect.
Sometimes they claim the Taj Mahal is built at the site of an ancient temple. Sometimes it is suggested that the Taj Mahal itself is a temple! Can you believe it?
Some other saffron bright spark comes up with the theory that the Taj Mahal had actually been a Rajput palace and was gifted to the Mughal emperor by one of his Rajput chieftains.
In any other country, these lunatics would be locked away in prison for targeting the nation's prized monuments. In India, however, they are free to parade their crazed, hate-filled figments of imagination as 'nationalism'!
From targeting rare historical monuments and rewriting history books to lynching people in the name of food and faith, fascism has taken total control of the world's largest democracy and is dismantling it, systematically and deliberately.
It is incredible what the BJP and its hydra-headed Parivar has already managed to accomplish in the three years they have been in power.
By capturing the vital levers of power and the deep state, including the various think tanks and scientific research bodies, not to mention the media, the Parivar is fast transforming the India of Gandhi's dreams into its own frightening image.
It is a sign of changing times that a bust of Gandhi's assassin Nathuram Godse, a Hindu Mahasabha/RSS veteran, was unveiled in the BJP-ruled UP on October 2, the birth anniversary of the Mahatma. Gandhi and Nehru and all the other heroes of the freedom struggle must be turning in their graves.
This is not the idea of India that they had fought for. Is this why they faced the full wrath of the British imperialism and spent their best years in prisons? Is this why Gandhi sacrificed his life so that those who detested him, colluded with the British, fought his politics of inclusion and eventually killed him could take the reins of the republic and destroy it? I wouldn't think so.
But who would take on the challenge posed by the Hindutva specter? The opposition remains in total disarray even as the BJP goes about dismantling all secular and democratic institutions of the country. Even if the BJP is successfully confronted and defeated in the 2019 polls, the lasting damage it has inflicted on the body-politic would be difficult, if not impossible, to reverse.

Authorities search for 20-year-old Inland Empire man who went missing on the Westside
A 20-year-old Menifee man has gone missing after he became disoriented in West Hollywood about 10 p.m. Thursday, authorities said late Friday.
Douglass Henry Hurd called his brother Thursday night and sounded distraught. He said he was in the Los Angeles area, had run out of gas and needed help. His phone then cut out.

Officers learned that the Los Angeles Sheriff's Department towed Hurd's car about 11 a.m. Thursday after it was found unoccupied and blocking traffic in West Hollywood.
Hurd is a white male, about 5 feet, 8 inches tall, 135 pounds with brown eyes and medium-length brown hair. He was last seen wearing white pants, a green shirt and white sneakers.

Cheers from the people of Timbuktu as a convoy of French and Mali military goes through the town to set up check-points. A triumph for the combined effort of both armies which has effectively kicked Islamist fighters out of the ancient town. Without a shot being fired. The rebels - who ally themselves with Al-Qaeda - claim they're 'regrouping, not fleeing'. Semantics to the local people.
The rebels wreaked havoc and left a trail of destruction. Torching several buildings, including a priceless library filled with ancient documents and manuscripts.
Today the effort is stepping up. Nigerian armed forces joining the French and crossing into the border of Mali into the town of Ayorou. More than 100 tanks and trucks strong. And the British government is set to confirm that - as part of an EU mission - it's sending out troops to train French forces in Mali. The MOD has already helped fly French equipment out there and has contributed an intelligence gathering aircraft.

Typical baits used for ground squirrels and similar rodents include nuts, grains and vegetable scraps. Almonds and walnuts, sunflower seeds, oats or barley, watermelon rinds, berries and fruit are also on the menu for ground squirrels, and they usually tempt the squirrels into trapping or shooting range. The baits are all used "as is," with no further preparation necessary, although commercial baits are available too.
In addition to the types of bait used for trapping and shooting operations, toxic baits can be used to kill ground squirrels as well. These usually rely on an anti-coagulant chemical, which prevents the squirrels' blood from clotting. Eventually, these poisons cause the squirrels to bleed to death internally. These baits do not work after one feeding. According to the University of California, ground squirrels must eat the bait for five consecutive days to cause death. Always check with local wildlife authorities or the local university extension office to find out what forms of ground squirrel control are legal in your area.
Be sure to destroy all ground squirrel burrows after you have trapped the occupants. Rather than simply filling them in, the holes must be ripped apart to a depth of at least 20 inches below the surface.

Definitely there is an issue running Windows 2008 R2 Service Pack 1 (SP1) VM on ESX 3.5.
We have several VMs running SQL Server, IIS, SharePoint and Project Servers. After lot of timeout issues, I decided to spend a couple of hours to research where the issue is.
I saw the VM is using almost all memory and only 25MB of free memory is available.
I started disabling all services (IIS, SharePoint, SQL, Antivirus) and rebooted server. Server still using around 3.8 GB of RAM of 4GB.
Rebooted on safe mode, using 380 MB! Rebooted on safe mode with networking around 460 MB!
Then I compared with others servers (1 VM and 1 physical server). Same issue on the VM, but physical server was using around 800MB of RAM.
I decided to uninstall VM Tools and viola! Issue resolved.

Even with six of the 15 top-selling TV series on DVD this year, HBO Video is aggressively stepping up efforts to increase its homevid domination.
This week sees the launch of the company's first major holiday ad campaign for "Oz." The first season of "Carnivale" will be released on DVD Dec. 7, just a month ahead of the Jan. 9 debut of the second season. The final eight episodes of "Sex and the City," including alternate endings, outtakes and two featurettes, will be released as a three-disc set on Dec. 28.
The first season of "Deadwood" will be released on DVD Feb. 8, just before the second season premieres in early March.
The third and fourth season sets of "Six Feet Under" are being prepared for DVD release next year as the fifth season of that series debuts. And the fifth season of "The Sopranos" will be released in the fourth quarter of 2005, shortly before that series returns for a sixth season in early 2006.
Although the previous strategy was to allow the network to have exclusive runs, reruns and more reruns of each series for at least two years, HBO Video senior VP of marketing Cynthia Rhea says that window is closing.
HBO has begun to work lines from series into holiday ad copy. For "The Sopranos": "Bada Bing. Bada Boom. Your Shopping's Done." "Oz" is promoted this way: "Just like life on the inside, it's always better to give than receive."
In one spot for the third season of "The Sopranos," a man walking his dog down a dark street is approached by an ominous-looking car. As the music rises, a passenger in the car throws something at the man, which lands at his feet. It turns out to be the DVD. A similar spot shows a man being jolted out of bed when something is thrown through his window, breaking the glass. It's a brick with the DVD taped to it.
Print ads in the holiday campaign include one for "Curb Your Enthusiasm" featuring stockings filled with coal and the tagline "Just the gift to give everyone you've alienated this year." The snow-covered gingerbread house is an ad for the DVD of "The Wire" with the tagline "The ideal gift for mom and dad considering the amount of surveillance they've conducted on you."
HBO Video wound up also employing this strategy on its release of the theatrical "My Big Fat Wedding." The cast was hired to re-create their characters shopping — and arguing — in a videostore.

Rumour – Nokia Planning 5.2-Inch Lumia 825
Ryan Martin / 5 years ago
According to a report by Dospy.com Nokia is working on a Lumia 825 smartphone with an enlarged 5.2 inch display. The display is reported to have a 720p resolution which is going to offer a really nice PPI for the 5.2 inch display, around 282 PPI.
The handset is part of Nokia's Lumia 800 series meaning it isn't quite the best of the Lumia range, its more of an upper mid-range handset. Despite that it should be including a reasonably high performance CPU, a Snapdragon 400 based CPU is expected and more specifically a 1.2GHz Quad Core is rumoured. Considering the current line-up of Windows phones is relatively lacking in large display models this is a welcome addition from Nokia.
There are no official details on when we should expect this handset to arrive other than Q4 of this year. That said if the handset does turn out to be true we could see more details emerge later on this year. We will of course bring you those as soon as we get them.
