text: UPDATED 2/3/12 Thanks to @copkay for writing this! [GUIDE] Full Phone Backup without Unlock or Root - xda-developers (windows version) Like a lot of you, I have been putting off unlocking the bootloader on my Nexus because I didn't want to have to go through the hassle of backing up everything manually and restoring individual application data; logging back into apps; saving settings; etc. I found an undocumented (at least as far as my googling was able to find) feature in the latest version of the ADB platform tools (for Android 4.0+) that allows you to create a full system backup, including app apks, their respective data, as well as the internal storage. This guide assumes you have already installed the Android SDK, and updated the Android SDK Platform Tools to the latest version (currently Rev 10) using the SDK Manager. 1. Connect your device via USB, and open Terminal. 2. In Terminal, type "cd " with the space and then drag your "platform-tools" folder in the android sdk where the space is, it should look like this "cd /where ever you put the folder/name of you computer/android-sdk-mac-osx/platform-tools". Drag and drop will do this for you, then hit enter. 3. In the same terminal window, type "./adb" and hit enter. A lot of stuff with come up that you really dont need to worry about. 4. Optionally, type the command "./adb devices" to ensure that your device is properly recognized. If you're comfortable with ADB already, just skip this. The command parameters format is: The most basic command you can use is simply: This will use the defaults to backup only app and device data (not the APKs themselves) to the current directory as 'backup.ab' To explain the parameters: Use this to choose where the backup file will be stored, e.g. '-f /backup/mybackup.ab', which will save it at the root of your drive (C:\ for Windows, etc.) in a folder called backup, as a file named 'mybackup.ab'. I recommend using this flag to set a location manually, as with my first backup test, it said that it completed successfully, but I was unable to locate the backup file. I have no idea where it was saved, but it wasn't where it should have been located. This flags whether or not the APKs should be included in the backup or just the apps' respective data. I personally use -apk just in case the app isn't available in the Market, so that I don't have to go hunt it down again. The default is -noapk. This flag is used to "enable/disable backup of the device's shared storage / SD card contents; the default is noshared.", which for the Nexus I would certainly flag to -shared, but from my test, it did not restore all of the contents of my internal storage, so I recommend backing up music, pictures, video, and other internal storage items manually, just to be on the safe side. The default is -noshared. This flag is just an easy way to say to backup ALL apps. The packages flag (further on) can be used to choose individual packages, but unless you're just wanting to backup a specific application, use -all for a full system backup. This flag sets whether or not the -all flag also includes system applications or not. I used -system, but this is probably unnecessary, and I would almost guess that it is safer to use -nosystem, but use your own judgment on this. The default is -system. Here you can list the package names (e.g. com.google.android.apps.plus) specifically that you would like to backup. Use this only if you're looking to backup a specific application. 3. Once you've made your decision on how to perform the backup, simply type the command as you would like it; in my case, this is the command that I used: 4. You will see a screen like the following: 5. Enter a password (if desired) for encryption of the backup file. RETAIN THIS PASSWORD FOR RESTORING LATER. 6. This process will take several minutes to complete, depending on the settings you've chosen, but when completed, you should get a toast on-screen saying 'Backup Complete', or if you miss that, you'll know once your command line has returned. 7. Now go unlock your bootloader (not going to go into the process for this guide, but you probably know how already, and if not, there are several guides a search away). 8. Once you're booted back into Android, you can choose to add your account now, or skip that for later. I skipped it for later, but I think it might make the process more smooth to sign in before the restore. YMMV. 9. To restore, with your device connected open your command prompt again, and type: replacing '/backup/mybackup.ab' with the location of your backup file. 10. You will see a screen like the one below: 11. Simply type in your current encryption password (if you've set one), and the password with which the backup was encrypted (if you chose to set a password), and the restore will begin. It again will take several minutes depending on the size of the backup and the options chosen. 12. You're back to normal, short of possibly some widgets on the home screen. My wallpaper was even restored, my app folders remained just as I had them before, my alarms remained, and for most applications, I didn't even have to log back in; it kept everything. ________________________ NOTE: I did have an issue with not all files being restored to the Internal Storage; in particular, the Gallery still displayed all the folders and files that it had cached (which it expected to be there) as only gray boxes, and would not display the images, nor would it rescan the media. I simply copied the files back to the Internal Storage directory manually, and all was well again. Again, YMMV. NOTE : Also to note, this will not back up SMS messages, so if you're concerned about those, you may want to look into an alternative application to back up SMS. Hope this is able to help! If so, give me a thanks )) and let me know how your experience goes. - Sean

• The ill-fated Dhruv PROBABLY suffered from a sudden loss of power in either one of its twin Ardiden-1H (Shakti) engines, jointly built by HAL and Turbomeca. But catastrophic failure of both engines or failure of both the LH and RH sides of the main gearbox (MGB) can be ruled out. It is also PROBABLE that either one of the two fuel supply tanks (which supply fuel independently to the two engines) was starved of fuel-flow from the the Dhruv ALH's three main fuel tanks, which house the pumps required for ensuring the fuel-flow to the fuel supply tanks.
• The above two probabilities PROBABLY contributed to the sudden reduction of supply of power to the tail-rotor gearbox via the tail-rotor drive shaft, resulting in the helicopter veering off to the left while losing altitude at the same time.
The only saving grace then, and the only available option for the aircrew then was to resort to the autorotation technique, which they did and that is probably the only reason they were fortunate enough to survive to fly again in future. Full marks to them!—Prasun K. Sengupta
The military variants of the Dhruv ALH adhere to the following FAR/MILSPEC standards:

French Manor Christmas Card
This is a Christmas in July card. I love this cut from my French Manor cart. This cart is an exclusive cart for Cricut Circle members. I cut the horn with the card feature and added some branches to make a wreath on it. I love how it turned out. The card feature also allows you to cut a liner that is placed directly behind the image, I chose to let the horn flow and adhered the liner to the opposite side. The liner is embossed. I think this is one that I will be mailing to lots of family members on my Christmas list.

Last June 5-9, 2017, the 7th Cross Regional Meeting on Violence Against Children was held at the Manila Hotel as one of the commemorative activities in line with the 50th Founding Anniversary of the ASEAN for 2017.
This is an annual gathering of representatives from ASEAN sectoral bodies with relevant work on Violence Against Children (VAC), as organized by the United Nations Special Representative of the Secretary General on Violence Against Children (SRSG-VAC).
This year's cross regional meeting highlighted ASEAN's pioneering initiatives and achievements on eliminating violence against children in the region, through the theme "Placing Children at the Heart of the Sustainable Development Agenda: Mainstreaming Children's Protection from Violence".
A Parallel Session gave the children an outlet to speak out and highlight their roles in eliminating violence against them.
A joint session between parents and children was held on the last day. Issues such as marrying below the age of 18 and corporal punishment were raised. Subsequently, children delegates responded that they should be responsible for themselves. They added that sex education should be brought back as a subject in school and that attention should be given to children with disabilities (CWDs).
Children from other ASEAN Member States were also toured in the Museo Pambata for a glimpse of the Filipino culture and arts.
The Council for the Welfare of Children is one with the ASEAN in supporting initiatives on eliminating violence against children

Discussion in 'Android Audio and Video' started by kinderadam, Nov 23, 2009.
anyone know of a good video converter for the DROID that is on mac?
handbreak is what i use on my mac, havent used it yet for the droid, will do tonight
Can u tell me all the settings I will need to fit the droids amazing screen and how to do it.... thanks
I used the iphone setting, I think I did the video bit rate at 1500kps, no other changes, ripped an episode of 24 and sent it to somebody with a Droid, they said it looked amazing.
Can't wait to get mine
I'm on a Windows platform, but that won't make any difference for your Handbrake settings of course. I've done quite a bit of experimenting (and with several other applications as well), and here's what I've found to work great (with no syncing problems whatsoever and excellent/smooth video quality:
Handbrake settings for Motorola Droid:
Picture settings:
Crop: Automatic
Size: Anamorphic: None, Width/Height: 854 x 480
Video Codec: MPEG-4 (FFmpeg), Framerate (FPS): 24
Quality: Average Bitrate (kbps): 768
Everything set to default. I should note that these settings work best for 16:9 wide screen movies, and as far as bitrate is concerned, 768 works beautifully when viewed on the Droid. I have found this setting to provide a great balance between video quality (excellent) with no syncing issues and file size.
I just wish Handbrake had video effects for adjusting saturation, hue, brightness and contrast.
Hope this helps.
By the way, the 854 x 480 forces the default player on the Droid to play the video in full screen.
i am using Handbrake but i don't have the option to go past 720 either way, any idea what i may be doing wrong? i have tried multiple options with no luck. i get the movies to convert but they don't play full screen
You have to set the Anamorphic to None.

How should problems of harsh words and disunity be dealt with if they occur in a Baha'i community?
57) "If any differences arise amongst you, behold Me standing before your face, and overlook the faults of one another for My name's sake and as a token of your love for My manifest and resplendent Cause. We love to see you at all times consorting in amity and concord within the paradise of My good-pleasure, and to inhale from your acts the fragrance of friendliness and unity, of loving-kindness and fellowship."
(Baha'u'llah, Gleanings from the Writings of Baha'u'llah, p. 375)
58) "O Brethren! Be forbearing one with another..."
(Baha'u'llah, Persian Hidden Words, No. 48)
59) "In brief, 0 ye believers of God! The text of the Divine Book is this: If two souls quarrel and contend about a question of the Divine questions, differing and disputing, both are wrong. The wisdom of this incontrovertible law of God is this: That between two souls from amongst the believers of God, no contention and dispute may arise; that they may speak with each other with infinite amity and love. Should there appear the least trace of controversy, they must remain silent, and both parties must continue their discussions no longer, but ask the reality of the question from the Interpreter. This is the irrefutable command!"
(Abdu'l-Baha, Tablets of the Divine Plan, pp. 21-22)
60) "The believers and maid-servants of the Merciful must all consider how to produce harmony, so that the unity of the human world may be realized, not that every wholly unimportant subject become conducive to differences of opinion.
"It is my hope that the friends and the maid-servants of America become united on all subjects and not disagree at all. If they agree upon a subject, even though it be wrong, it is better than to disagree and be in the right, for this difference will produce the demolition of the divine foundation. Though one of the parties may be in the right and they disagree that will be the cause of a thousand wrongs, but if they agree and both parties are in the wrong, as it is in unity the truth will be revealed and the wrong made right."
(Abdu'l-Baha, Baha'i World Faith, p. 417)
61) "It behoveth all the beloved of God to become as one, to gather together under the protection of a single flag, to stand for a uniform body of opinion, to follow one and the same pathway, to hold fast to a single resolve. Let them forget their divergent theories and put aside their conflicting views since, God be praised, our purpose is one, our goal is one. We are the servants of one Threshold, we all draw our nourishment from the same one Source, we all are gathered in the shade of the same high Tabernacle, we all are sheltered under the one celestial Tree."
(Abdu'l-Baha, Selections from the Writings Abdu'l-Baha, p. 230)
62) "When criticism and harsh words arise within a Baha'i community, there is no remedy except to put the past behind one, and persuade all concerned to turn over a new leaf, and for the sake of God and His Faith refrain from mentioning the subjects which have led to misunderstanding and inharmony. The more the friends argue back and forth and maintain, each side, that their point of view is the right one, the worse the whole situation becomes.
"When we see the condition the world is in today, we must surely forget these utterly insignificant internal disturbances, and rush, unitedly, to the rescue of humanity. You should urge your fellow-Baha'is to take this point of view, and support you in a strong effort to suppress every critical thought and every harsh word, in order to let the spirit of Baha'u'llah flow into the entire community, and unite it in His love and in His service."
(From a letter written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi to an individual believer, February 16, 1951)
63) 'However, he feels very strongly that if... is in the state your letter would seem to indicate it is certainly conducting its affairs in the wrong way. This does not mean the Assembly, it means everyone. For where is Baha'i love? Where is putting unity and harmony first? Where is the willingness to sacrifice one's personal feelings and opinions to achieve love and harmony? What makes the Baha'is think that when they sacrifice the spiritual laws the administrative laws are going to work?
'He urges you to exert your utmost to get the... Baha'is to put aside such obnoxious terms as "radical," "conservative," "progressive," "enemies of the Cause," "squelching the teachings," etc.. If they paused for one moment to think for what purpose the Bab and the Martyrs gave their lives, and Baha'u'llah and the Master accepted so much suffering, they would never let such definitions and accusations cross their lips when speaking of each other. As long as the friends quarrel amongst themselves their efforts will not be blessed for they are disobeying God.'
(From a letter dated 24 February 1950 written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi to an individual believer)
64) "Since you have turned to him for guidance, he will very frankly give you his opinion.
"He feels that the present inharmony prevailing amongst you... is very detrimental to the advancement of the Cause, and can only lead to disruption and the chilling of the interest of new believers. You... should forget about your personal grievances, and unite for the protection of the Faith which he well knows you are all loyally devoted to and ready to sacrifice for.
"Perhaps the greatest test Baha'is are ever subjected to is from each other; but for the sake of the Master they should be ever ready to overlook each other's mistakes, apologize for harsh words they have uttered, forgive and forget. He strongly recommends to you this course of action.
"Also he feels that you and… should not remain away from the meetings and Feasts in…, and you should show them a strong example of Baha'i discipline and the unity which can and must prevail amongst the Community of the Most Great Name."
(From a letter dated 18 December 1945 written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi to an individual believer)
65) "What the believers need is not only, as you state, to really study the teachings, but also to have more peace-makers circulating among them. Unfortunately, not only average people, but average Baha'is, are very immature; gossip, trouble-making, criticism, seem easier than the putting into practice of love, constructive words and cooperation. It is one of the functions of the older and more mature Baha'is, to help the weaker ones to iron out their difficulties and learn to function and live like true believers!"
(From a letter written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi to an individual believer, January 11, 1950)
66) "The greatest need it seems everywhere inside the Cause is to impress upon the friends the need for love among them. There is a tendency to mix up the functions of the Administration and try to apply it in individual relationships, which is abortive, because the Assembly is a nascent House of Justice and is supposed to administer, according to the Teachings, the affairs of the Community. But individuals towards each other are governed by love, unity, forgiveness and a sin-covering eye. Once the friends grasp this they will get along much better, but they keep playing Spiritual Assembly to each other and expect the Assembly to behave like an individual."
(From a letter written on behalf of the Guardian to an individual believer, October 5, 1950)

The international multi-sport event, officially known as Games of the XXXI Olympiad, has historically drawn excited crowds from around the world giddy with eager anticipation, and the upcoming Olympics should have been no different. However, the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro on August 5-21 are being hailed in with reserve due to the country's ongoing political, economic and social crises.
As the countdown to 2016 Rio Olympics continues, news updates from Brazil provide less than ideal publicity for the host nation of Brazil: President Dilma Rousseff, the first female President of the largest Latin American country, has been impeached and suspended for six months, the world's eighth largest economy is seeing a recession that shows no signs of improving anytime soon, polluted waters at competition venues threaten Olympic participants' health, and Zika virus is giving global public health officials nightmares.
For months President Dilma Rousseff has been fighting allegations against her, insisting she, "may have committed errors", but she is no criminal. Mr. Luis Almagro, secretary general of the Organization of American States, has supported her point of view: that her actions "are not crimes, but they are related to poor administration." Rousseff has also challenged the impeachment proceedings against her as "fraudulent" and a "true blow to democracy". To her credit, she is not facing allegations of stealing public money for personal use but of violating fiscal laws to cover her government's budget shortfalls before her 2014 re-election. The fact that Brazil is experiencing its worst recession in a quarter of a century does not help her argument, though she blames the global economic crisis for Brazil's economic struggles and insists she has always been a fighter and an honest advocate for her people.
With high unemployment in double digits, rate of inflation estimated at a 12-year high, and widespread corruption scandals in her Worker's Party, the gradual shaping of public opinion against her is not all that surprising: some estimates show that her approval ratings had nose-dived to 10% from almost 80% during the period between March 2013 and March 2016. As if that wasn't enough, her former allies and opponents have blamed her dictatorial style of governance as one of the reasons for her gradual downfall. The resulting alienation of her longstanding political allies, many insist, has pushed them to the other side to support her impeachment proceedings.
Dilma Rousseff has in turn questioned the credibility of the advocates of her impeachment process who are themselves accused of corruption, including the three men from Brazilian Democratic Movement Party (PMDB) who were in line of succession: Vice President Michel Temer, Speaker of Lower House Eduardo Cunha, and Senate president Renan Calheiros. Worse still, according to Transparency Brazil almost 60 percent of the 594 members of the Congress face serious charges including fraud, kidnapping, homicide, etc. Now that Vice President Michel Temer has taken over as interim President, however, it is expected that no charges will be brought up against him or his allies.
Besides the political and social turmoil Rio de Janeiro faces, the city is known for its high rate of crime as much as its culture and beauty. During the three weeks of the upcoming Olympics, the security of participants and spectators thronging the venues from around the world would be a huge task. The International Olympic committee (OIC) has expressed its concerns about overcrowding, drug trafficking and other crime in the areas called 'favelas' (slums) close to the Olympic events. Brazil's commitment to the Olympics would require a special focus on this aspect of planning. If handled effectively, it would go also a long way in bringing lasting security to the local population long after the Olympic city is vacated.
Other potentially catastrophic health hazards that could jeopardize the success of Rio Olympics come from water pollution and Zika virus. An October 2015 U.S. Olympic Committee report quoted by ESPN expressed little confidence in the country's ability to tackle the challenges in time: "we do not expect to anticipate major reductions [italics USOC] in bacterial or viral pathogen levels at the competition venues." A more recent CNN report also detailed the amount of pollution in waters to be used for Olympic competitions clogged with debris and raw sewage as a major health risk for participants. Rio's Olympic bid seven years ago had included a clear commitment to tackle the water pollution but the targets appear to be falling short. There have been reports of severe illness affecting athletes training at those venues.
International Health agencies also fear that the spread of mosquito-borne Zika virus linked to severe brain defects in babies will accelerate due to close contact at the Olympics. The CDC has issued extensive warnings to expectant mothers regarding the dangers of exposure to Zika. The virus poses a serious threat because the medical research on its spread and containment is still not sufficient, which makes it harder to control. A few athletes have publicly expressed concern, but it is unlikely anyone will withdraw. According to some reports, athletes feel so invested in the competition that they have likened withdrawing from Olympics to throwing their whole life's work to waste.
So, Rio 2016 is moving forward as planned. Last October, when John Coates, International Olympic Committee vice president, spoke of Rio's preparations as "worst ever", he aroused much concern among the local and international stake holders. However, CNN's latest reports suggest that despite the political upheaval Brazil is facing, it is on track with 98 percent of the venues ready and within budget. With the recent changeover at the helm due to impeachment of Rousseff, the skepticism about the future of the Rio Olympics had resurfaced but the president of the International Olympics Committee, Thomas Bach, was quick to express his confidence in the new interim government right after Michel Temer took office, and said, "there is strong support for the Olympic games in Brazil and we look forward to working with the new government to deliver successful games in Rio this summer." Though Dilma Rousseff's strong support and advocacy were instrumental in securing the Olympics bid for her country, Michel Temer will be gracing the President's designated seat at the opening ceremony.
The international stake holders remain committed to supporting Brazil through these trying times in any way possible, even with filling the spectator seats. For over 50 percent tickets sold so far, several media reports have detailed a lack of interest from the local spectator due to Brazil's internal instability – at the same time, however, it is encouraging that these ticket sales have been overwhelmingly international. With several months to go, sales for Brazilians are expected to pick up as well.
Despite everything happening in their country, the Brazilians hope to see a welcome respite in the form of an exciting and colorful Olympics event, as well as lasting benefits post Olympics, including increased tourism and positive effects of investment in stable infrastructure and security etc. For everything to happen, however, political stability is a pre-requisite. At this point, though hopes are pinned on the success of 2016 Olympics, Michel Temer's policies for economic success and the suspended leader Dilma Rousseff's future, however, remains uncertain. The next six months will be crucial in determining the success and future – or lack thereof – of both. The world is watching.

Logos & Multimedia
In creating our new logo, we wanted to honor our history as the Coalition that has served as the statewide voice for victims of domestic violence for nearly 40 years. We also wanted to keep the recognition of our original logo while offering something new that would represent the diversity and inclusivity of the available statewide services offered by member programs. Here you will discover details about our reimagined logo:
- It is circular in shape to further illustrate our unity and interconnectedness and is an abstract depiction of all people.
- Our name in the center represents our leadership on the issue of domestic violence throughout NJ's communities and the support we provide to our programs.
- The colors additionally represent diversity utilizing the three primary colors of our collective movement: purple, orange and teal.
- There are abstract meanings as well. With the change to "End Domestic Violence" in our name, the internal shape of the logo has 8 sides like a stop sign. It could also be seen as a flower, illustrating our move to stop violence before it even starts…at its roots. This is at the core of our blossoming primary prevention work.

After many years walking together, we have reached a turning point where we have to leave some things behind in order to bring new projects to life.
Those who have come along the way with us are aware of the effort involved in development of a high-quality plugin like DevalVR.
Today, the time has come for us to start something new, and DevalVR plugin, as you all have known it, will become discontinued.
This does not mean that our activity comes to an end; on the contrary, we are developing new products and applications for professional 360 panorama photographers. We invite you all to find out more about them in our new web site www.panoimagen.com.
I want to thank the support of so many fellow 360 photographers and designers who helped us make our product outstand above the rest.
A big thank you to all of you.
ActiveX control will remain available for those contents already developed with DevalVR, although it will not receive any new updates.

After the first successful collaboration with Goodhood brainchild, Kyle Stewart, we are at it again for Autumn/Winter 2017, welcoming X-Rated pop graphics from "The Love Cult".
Taking inspiration from adult magazines, the now infamous, Joy of Sex manual and 70's cult b-movie slogans, Kyle drops his dark humoured graphics onto a capsule collection of sportswear inspired pieces, including an oversized crew and a hooded sweat, both sporting provocative printed patches, three suggestive T-Shirt prints and the relaxed skate fit, 45 chino, complete with unfinished raw edge details and contrast "69" embroidery.
The collection is wrapped up with a handful of buttons, lighters and beanies along with a selection of exclusive screen printed chrome posters.
Pure DIY-style, give a fuck what you think, dark graphic overtones from the Goodhood guru.

The hotel industry has been a bright spot in job growth leading the nation's economic resurgence and improving the employment landscape, marking more than six years of consecutive job creation, with continued growth projected in the coming years. Critical to generating and maintaining this growth has been, and will be, government and industry focus on increasing the flow of foreign visitors to the U.S. and recognizing the value of government, business, and leisure travel here at home.
AHLA Position
Working with the broader travel industry, we will continue to support policy initiatives that promote tourism, including issues like the visa waiver program to strengthen business and leisure travel and the H-2B program to provide valuable support for businesses looking to supplement their workforce with temporary seasonal employees if no American workers are available.

- Direct spending by resident and international travelers in the U.S. average $2.6 billion a day, $108.1 million an hour, $1.8 million a minute and $30,033 a second.
- $2.3 trillion: Economic output generated by domestic and international visitors (includes $990.3 billion in direct travel expenditures that spurred an additional $1.3 trillion in other industries).
- 15.3 million: Jobs supported by travel expenditures (includes 8.6 million directly in the travel industry and 6.7 million in other industries).
- $248.2 billion: Wages shared by American workers directly employed by travel.
- $157.8 billion: Tax revenue generated by travel spending for federal, state and local governments.
- 75.6 million: Projected number of international arrivals in the U.S. in 2016, including 37.6 million from overseas markets.
- Hotel operations and guest spending report 8 million jobs, including 4.5 direct jobs.
- Hotels support $355 billion in total labor income.
- Hotels generate nearly $170 billion in federal, state and local taxes.
- There are 54,200+ properties, over 5 million guest rooms and 1.1 billion+ guest nights annually in the United States hotel industry.
- The industry has added 188,000+ new jobs in five years.
- Hotel revenue has increased to $245 billion in 2015, and real consumer spending on lodging has increased by 230% over the past three decades.

A sad day: DC elected officials and the Peter Principle
in a hierarchy every employee tends to rise to his level of incompetence.
I am hopeful that this is a sign of the current regime playing out, that local politics has reached its maximum level of incompetence and is ready for a new day.

A new discovery: a Siberian expedition found fossils of dinosaurs with feathers in Russia. The finding of a new species could mean that feathered animals were widespread than previously thought. The researchers said the herbivorous dinosaur, which belongs to a beaked group known as Ornithischia, was five feet long. "The feathers may have been present in the earliest dinosaurs," according to the researchers.
Pascal Godefroit, Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Science paleontologist and new study's author, confirmed, "we have found a dinosaur outside of the theropod lineage" that had feathers. Ths finding could mean that feathers probably remained in the ancestors of theropods and ornithischians. These species split about 220 million years ago. Godefroit finished his comments by saying all the descendants of the common ancestor could have potentially had feathers.
The relics found in Russia are 150 million years old and the discovery completely changes our view of dinosaurs, according to the paleontologist. Called Kulindadromeus zabaikalicus, the creature had five strong fingers, short arms, long legs and a short snout. The fossil's teeth showed adaptation for chewing plants.
Kulindadromeus zabaikalicus, the dinosaur's name, means "Kulinda River running dinosaur." Zabaikalicus is a reference to the region in Siberia where the animal was first discovered (Zibaikalsky Krai).
Dr. Maria McNamara, co-researcher in Siberia, said dinosaurs did not have dry skin, "A lot of them had a fluffy covering." But the real challenge will be proving the theory, Godefroid thought, because researchers rarely find traces of feathers that have been fossilized.
He hoped other feathers may be seen in the fossils found elsewhere in Siberia, such as in six partial dinosaurs' skeletons and a hundred or more fossilized bones that have been discovered in two different locations in Siberia.
As the paleontologist of Brussels, Belgium, said, Siberia is like "a dinosaur cemetery." According to him, the creatures, which lived near what is now Kulinda River, died in a single event. Most of the fossils discovered were of juveniles.
Dr. Godefroit also said the museum models may need to be changed if other dinosaurs' species did not have dry skin. He said that better models could be ones which represent the creatures as looking somewhat like big chickens. According to Dr. Godefroit, "Maybe Tyrannosaurus rex was some kind of big chicken."
Mike Benton, a professor on Bristol University, was involved in the work and has another idea about fluffier dinosaurs. He said that the research does not mean that all of creatures had feathers, "especially the adult ones." The professor said some the ancient animals may have lost feathers as they grew up or might have replaced them with scales.
For Benton, the key point is that all dinosaurs were warm-blooded and initially feathered. This is an affirmation of an idea that has prevailed for years. Godefroit completed, "Feathers are not a characteristic just of birds."
Doctor on the Natural History Museum of London, Paul Barrett, has some doubts. He said that no bird has structures in any part of its plumage that biologists have used to understand the evolution of feathers.
In 2009 two dinosaur discoveries in China had hinted that the creatures had feathers. Jakob Vinther, who works as a paleontologist on the United Kingdom's University of Bristol, said about the Siberian fossils discovered that had feathers that it "was great that these animals with 'fluff' are found outside of China."
The feathers discovered in the fossils of Siberian dinosaurs could not have made the creatures fly like animals with wings. "That is all we can tell," about the fossilized examples of feathers, according to Godefroit.

16 x 20" acrylic paints on canvas abstract water scene. Inspired in part by the following quotation: "The shortest day has passed, and whatever nastiness of weather we may look forward to in January and February, at least we notice that the days are getting longer. Minute by minute they lengthen out. It takes some weeks before we become aware of the change. It is imperceptible even as the growth of a child, as you watch it day by day, until the moment comes when with a start of delighted surprise we realize that we can stay out of doors in a twilight lasting for another quarter of a precious hour." - Vita Sackville-West

Download YetiSports 4 – Albatros Overload
The fourth game in the series of Yeti Sports is Albatros Overload. The game leaves for the first time the cold environments that were encountered in the first three games and takes you near the ocean, on a beach. Here you will still have the penguin that needs to be carried away through the air, but this time it will not hurt him.
You have the penguin placed on an improvised see-saw and as you click the mouse the Yeti will stomp the see-saw, taking the penguin up in the air. From there, seagulls will take the penguin on their back and will carry him as much as possible.

Player of the Year
Hayden Sweat, Senior - Bullitt East
Corey Washburn, Senior, Bullitt East
SHEPHERDSVILLE - Struggles on the mound proved fatal for the Bullitt Central Cougars last week as they won just one of three games.
MOUNT WASHINGTON - Bullitt East's run through the top teams in Kentucky continued last week with two more games against teams ranked among the top six in the Commonwealth.
HEBRON ESTATES - Baseball, like life, often runs in cycles. For North Bullitt Eagle head coach Brian Wise, he hopes a trip to Myrtle Beach during spring break will be the thing which changes the cycle for his squad.
SHEPHERDSVILLE - After playing ten games over the first ten days of the season, the Bullitt Central Lady Cougars were happy to see the first break of the regular season.
MOUNT WASHINGTON - The offense is still looking for a little more firepower, but the Bullitt East Lady Chargers found just enough hitting last week to win two of three games to head to Florida with a .500 record.
HEBRON ESTATES - The North Bullitt Lady Eagles are still looking for the first win of the 2011 season after the first two weeks of the regular seaso, but veteran head coach Eric Lambert said he saw his team play much better in some games last week, including a 2-1 loss to Male that could just as easily have gone in the victory column.
In the early season, it is the boys from Bullitt East who look to again have the strongest team.
MOUNT WASHINGTON - It is going to be a short track season in Kentucky this spring so Bullitt East and North Bullitt have already gotten a good look at each other in two meets before spring break.
MOUNT WASHINGTON - Bullitt East's Lindey Young and Corey Washburn have been invited to the try-outs for the Kentucky All-Star teams that will compete against Indiana in June.

Greyscale is a group show featuring artwork in black, white and the scale of grey in between.
From my artist's statement:
The television greyscale display has a personal nostalgic value to the artist, taking her back to her youth when programs did not run 24/7. Patricia and her siblings often created their own entertainment. Garden snails were both a source of amusement and curiosity. That curiosity continues to this day. For Greyscale, Patricia has created a series of life sized snail sculptures, utilising real snail shells, collected over years from her garden. Her selection of paper collages reference nursery rhymes and tales.

Benjamin Mkapa: "Governance and Investment – Experience After 40 Years" - Opening Remarks by the AfDB President Donald Kaberuka
Event: Eminent Speakers Program – Benjamin Mkapa
Your Excellency, Mr. Benjamin Mkapa
It is with great pleasure that I welcome His Excellency Mr. Benjamin William Mkapa to the Temporary Relocation Agency of the African Development Bank.
We are grateful to Your Excellency for honoring our invitation to share with us your views on Governance and Investment in Africa. Considering your overbooked schedule, particularly at this time of the year, I am inclined to see your visit as a gesture of the festive season's goodwill to the Bank for the forthcoming and New Year.
This Seminar is the last for the year under the Eminent Speakers Program of the Bank, which is part of the newly-designed framework to enhance the visibility of the Bank as a knowledge institution.
The primary objective is to provide opportunities for Bank Staff to interchange and learn from the experiences of world-renowned personalities such as Your Excellency on key development challenges facing Africa.
His Excellency Mr. Benjamin Mkapa graduated from Makerere University in Uganda. Many universities have honored him with their honoris causa. He has behind him a solid career as a civil servant, journalist, diplomat and politician.
He started his working life in 1962 as a District Officer.
Five years later he embarked on a career in journalism.
It is the then President of the country, H.E. Mwalimu Julius Nyerere, one of the Founding Fathers of modern Africa who identified his talent and appointed him his Press Secretary.
He subsequently embarked on a brilliant diplomatic career, served as Ambassador to Nigeria, Canada, USA. He then joined the Cabinet and served as Minister in various portfolios of Information and Culture; Communication and Broadcasting; Foreign Affairs; Science, Technology and Higher Education.
In 1995, he was elected with a comfortable majority when he won the first multi-party election for the Presidency of the United Republic of Tanzania.
During his 10-year tenure as President, from 1995 to 2005, he pursued economic reforms with diligence and prudence, which boosted economic growth and foreign investment, and Tanzania made remarkable strides in the economy.
Mr. President, Tanzania is one of our largest beneficiary countries and we are witness to the progress your country has attained and we are glad the Bank was able to make its modest contribution
President Mkapa was equally active in the efforts for democracy and stability in the Great Lakes region. He was instrumental in conflict management and resolution and was an influential promoter of regional cooperation within the East African Community and the Southern African Development Community (SADC), which he chaired in 2003 and 2004.
In 2002, he was appointed, together with the President of Finland, Co-Chair of the World Commission on the Social Dimension of Globalization.
In 2004, he served as a member of the Blair Commission for Africa; and he continues to sit on a number of eminent personality panels including UNCTAD. We are sorry Mr. President, Mr. Supachai got to you before we did.
Today, although no longer in the State House, he continues to be active nationally and internationally, examples are the Co-Chair of the African Investment Climate Facility and the South Centre, an inter-governmental organization based in Geneva, Switzerland.
In 2005, President Mpaka stepped down from office and handed power to his successor, Tanzania's third peaceful and exemplary democratic transition. He never attempted to change the constitution – and I am reliably told scoffs at attempts to do so. Is there a better person to talk to us about Governance?
It is often said that Africa is the continent that has most suffered from poor governance including its extreme form, violent conflicts. The African Development Bank attaches great importance to the promotion of governance as a pre-condition for prosperity and how it affects investment and reduction of poverty. Indeed, in the reorganization of this Bank, we have a new Department of Governance and Economic Management and it is our intention to see it grow and play a bigger role.
We are continuously learning as to how best to help build institutions, capacity and operate in risky environments where governance is a challenge.
Your Excellency's presentation here today therefore fits so well within the core of our work. We are keen to listen and engage in further discussion on this important subject. It is now my singular honour to call upon His Excellency Benjamin Mpaka to take the floor.

blocSonic : Your introduction to the world of netaudio…
About blocSonic
blocsonic on 02/16/2012 at 12:00AM
Catch up with blocSonic and enjoy some great free music
Back in the early 2000s, I began discovering the incredibly diverse world of netlabels/netaudio. At first, my exploration was hindered due to my lack of commitment to the need of listening to such a large array of music only to discover a very few gems that appealed to my tastes. By 2006 I had come to realize that there wasn't any easy button to discovering music I love. I also decided that I'd take it upon myself to create that easy button for others to discover the vibrant music scene more easily than I was able to. That easy button became blocSonic.com and was launched in January of 2007.
For the first two years, I concentrated on the series of releases for which blocSonic was created, the netBloc series. A series of releases that collects 10-12 personal netaudio favorites into a fully realized compilation album that comes with complete album art, a PDF booklet with extensive liner-notes and is available in multiple audio formats, including lossless FLAC. In those first two years, 26 volumes were released that shined the spotlight on a widely eclectic range of netaudio from all over the world. The netBloc series quickly generated interest among music listeners, netaudio artists and netlabels alike.
Then in 2009 came the natural next step… releasing blocSonic original albums alongside the netBloc series. That year saw the release of the first four blocSonic originals… Just Plain Ant's "Dig Deep", Formula's "The Catastrophic Connection", Luck & Ripps' "The Catastrophic Connection" and CM aka Creative's "Classic Material Vol. 3: UI Radio".
Along with new netBloc and original releases, 2010 came with it's own additions to the blocSonic release line-up… maxi-singles and EPs known as maxBlocs and blocSonic's own brand of deluxe edition re-releases called Xtended Editions.
2011 was a year of refining the blocSonic release schedule and planning for more growth this year.
In January blocSonic celebrated its fifth year with what became known as MUTE month — four releases by the cross-atlantic team of Tha Silent Partner and UNknown (Formula) known as MUTE.
Since launching, blocSonic's audience has only grown and continues to do so now even as I plan future additions to the release line-up, a new site design and other exciting changes. The future is bright for netaudio and for blocSonic. I can't wait to let you in on what I've got cooking!
For now, get to know blocSonic or simply catch up… with this selection of 50 highlights from the 2007-2012 archives.

Wearing the right motorcycle helmet can be the difference between life and death in a crash. When you're looking for the right motorcycle helmet, you'll need to think about the fit and shape of the helmet. Find out which type of motorcycle helmet is the best for you.
The Fit
Finding the right fit will not only keep your head secure, but it will also make for a comfortable ride. Fit depends on the size and shape of your head. When you try on a helmet, you should be able to shake your head up and down and side-to-side without shaking the helmet. You want the helmet to fit snug, but you also don't want it too tight. If the helmet is too tight, you're going to be in for an uncomfortable ride.
It's a good idea to wear the helmet for about half an hour before you take it on the road for the first time. Check for pressure points, especially on your forehead and crown of your head. Most helmets come with cheek padding that can be added or removed, depending on what you need to do to maximize comfort. Your helmet size may vary, depending on the brand and shape. Always try on a motorcycle helmet before taking it on the road.
The Shape
There are different types of motorcycle helmets to choose from. Depending on what type of riding you're doing, you'll need the right shape motorcycle helmet.
Full Face Motorcycle Helmets
A full face helmet provides the most protection. It covers the entire head, going from the chin to the base of the skull. It gives you the most isolation from the elements and reduces noise, which is great for the open road. These helmets can be heavier than others, and some riders don't like the added heat from the fully enclosed helmet.
Open Face/Three Quarter Motorcycle Helmets
The open face, or three quarter, helmet covers the back of your head, but not your face. While these helmets may seem more comfortable to most riders, the downfall is the lack of face protection. Obviously you want to protect your face in a crash, but it's also important to protect your face while riding. Bugs, dust, debris and wind can all make for an uncomfortable, and even dangerous, ride. If you're going to wear an open face helmet, you should at least wear sunglasses or motorcycle goggles to protect your eyes. You can also attach a face shield to help with sun glare and flying debris.
Modular Motorcycle Helmets
Modular motorcycle helmets are like a hybrid of open face and full face helmets. The lower half of the helmet can flip up over the top of the helmet, transforming from a full face to an open face helmet. They provide the safety of a full face helmet, with the convenience of an open face. With the chin bar flipped up, you can easily communicate with other riders. When you're riding, it's important to keep the chin bar flipped down. Riding with the chin bar flipped up can cause increased risk of neck injuries in a crash. These helmets can also weigh more because of the chin bar latches. They're also not fully sealed like a full face helmet, so the wind and rain can still affect your ride.
Half Motorcycle Helmets
Half helmets aren't really recommended for motorcycle use. They only cover the top of your head, leaving your face, chin, ears and neck totally exposed. They offer the least amount of coverage allowed by law. However, they are quite comfortable because they're lightweight and have good visibility. If you do choose a half helmet, we recommend wearing goggles or sunglasses to protect your eyes from debris.
Off Road/Motocross Helmets
Motocross helmets provide the same protection as a full face helmet, when combined with motocross goggles. They feature a long visor to protect the rider from sun glare and debris on a rough course. They also feature an angled chin bar to help with facial impact from debris or in a crash. They typically have an open face area around the nose and eyes. Goggles are worn to cover this open area, providing more protection.

Came across these photos that were going to form part of a magazine article. They show some Bubinga (African Satinwood if you want to be posh) with unfilled grain.
Here with some grain filler starting to be applied
(would have helped if I'd taken photos of the same area of timber )
and in a contrasting colour
If you look closely you can see that the grain filler has been dragged out in a few places. This next photo using a darker grain filler shows it better. Really got too enthusiastic with the wiping.

I was cheering for the Nashville Predators against Anaheim. I love to see new teams make it as far as the Finals, it highlights the need for parity in sports.
Something we aren't getting out of the NBA Playoffs.
When low budget teams like Nashville can find the magic to get to the Stanley Cup Finals, it's a good thing. It offers hope to teams who can't pay all the way to the cap like Winnipeg or even Ottawa.
Yes, the Senators are right there with the Predators at the end of the playoffs but also at the bottom of the pay scale in the NHL.
While Pittsburgh and Anaheim are near the top, the NHL has two Cinderella stories.
Cinderella is dead in the NBA and we are getting tired of watching the evil step sisters get all the glory year in and year out.
Cleveland and Golden State are destined to play for the championship for the third straight year.
Give the NHL salary cap system credit, it's doing what it was supposed to: allow all teams to have a chance at that glass slipper.

Thailand's Foreign Minister Surapong Tovichakchaikul (L) and Cambodia's Foreign Minister Hor Namhong attend ASEAN meetings in Phnom Penh in 2012. Photograph: Hong Menea/Phnom Penh Post
Cambodian and Thai officials are trading barbs ahead of International Court of Justice (ICJ) hearings on the disputed territory surrounding the Preah Vihear temple.
After being accused of throwing in the towel mere months before the April hearings at the Hague in the Netherlands, Thai Foreign Minister Surapong Tovichakchaikul has vowed to look his Cambodian counterpart Hor Namhong straight in the eye "in order to cause him to lose his concentration".
The quote, in The Nation newspaper, went on to say he's prepared to sue anyone who says he is soft on pursuing the case.
Cambodian officials shot back yesterday, saying that the foreign minister was looking in the wrong direction.
"That's funny," Minister of Information Khieu Kanharith said. "He should look in the judge's eye to overturn the verdict."
Phay Siphan, spokesman at the Council of Ministers, said the comments represent uncertainty, and that attitude won't influence the court.
The proposed diplomatic staring contest seems to be in response to backlash that occurred last week after the Thai foreign minister spoke of plans to launch an awareness campaign about the case.
Tovichakchaikul said the campaign was intended to educate the public about Preah Vihear in order to lessen the negative reaction should Thailand lose.
The remarks were interpreted by critics and analysts as an admission of defeat.
A spokesman for the Thai Ministry of Foreign Affairs, however, disputed the characterisation, and said late last week that the awareness efforts, which include print media, television programs and seminars, have been on going since Cambodia brought the case back to the International Court of Justice in The Hague in 2011.
"We intend to educate the public whatever the ruling will be," Pongsin Thepruangchai of the Thai foreign ministry's information department said.
"The campaign is cranking up a notch, he said, "as we are moving closer to the date of the court ruling and there will be growing interest among the public on this issue."
At issue are claims between Cambodia and Thailand to a 4.6-square-kilometre area surrounding the ruin, an 11th-century Hindu temple perched atop a cliff near the border.
The ICJ awarded Cambodia the temple in a 1962 ruling, but after fatal cross-border clashes broke out in 2008 and repeatedly in the following years, Cambodia in 2011 asked the court to clarify its decision regarding the territory surrounding the ruin.
Both countries will plead their case on April 15-19.
A decision is set to follow in October.

A Heavy Post, Part II
Well, after my first Heavy Post, I did really well for the week. Then, our Marriage Retreat happened. I indulged that weekend, to say the least. And, pretty much kept indulging after that.
This Monday, I started Weight Watchers again. I did the point system before our wedding and lost about 30 lbs. So, obviously, it works for me. I decided to do WW again because it is a structured program, but still gives me some freedom to choose what I eat and how I "spend" my points. I need the structure. I do very well with boundaries.
I've already lost 3 lbs. It is the desserts. I know it. I have such a sweet tooth. I would usually have something sweet after lunch and dinner. Now, after lunch I have fruit and after dinner I still have something sweet, but in moderation.
My goal is still attainable. Even if it takes me a couple more weeks than originally planned.
And, the weather is starting to cooperate so I can get outside for walks with Chloe, which will help.
I just wanted to update, especially for those who are my accountability partners. :)
Hope it is going well for you too!!!
