Commenting on Syrian progress during the disarmament, Russian President Vladimir Putin said that he thought the Syrian government was "very actively" cooperating with the UN team of 100 working through each site.
"The Syrian leadership has very actively joined this work and is acting in a transparent manner, helping international agencies," stated Putin as reported by Russia's state RIA Novosti news on Tuesday.
The OPCW and the UN have had to quickly gather a team of chemical weapons experts [2] after a Security Council resolution endorsed a Russian-US disarmament plan on September 27. The plan aims todestroy Syria's huge chemical weapons arsenal estimated at 1,000 tons, by mid-2014 [3].
The plan was launched after a chemical weapons attack near Damascus on August 21 [4], in which hundreds - Washington claims around 1,400 - people died.

SPOKANE – The best fastpitch softball teams usually rely heavily on dominant pitching, but the Jefferson Raiders are doing their best to change that way of thinking.
"Our thing is all about outscoring teams," Jefferson coach Chad Fahnlander said after the Raiders opened the State 4A tournament with a pair of high-scoring wins Friday at the Dwight Merkel Sports Complex.
The Raiders (26-4), the only area team that remained undefeated after the first day of the two-day, double-elimination tourney, beat Central Valley of Spokane Valley 7-4 and Monroe 10-8.
"We don't have that big strikeout pitcher … but we have a great offense," Fahnlander said.
The Raiders proved as much by scoring five runs in the fifth inning against Central Valley and five more against Monroe in the first inning. Bailey Rundle had key hits in both outbursts.
Fahnlander said Jefferson is 2-0 at state for the first time since 2002, when the Raiders lost their other two games.
Jefferson's semifinal opponent this morning is defending champion Walla Walla (25-1), ranked 49th in the nation by ESPNHS.com. The Blue Devils outscored their two Friday foes 30-0, as 2011 All-American Alyson Ambler gave up one hit in the two games and threw a perfect game against Bothell while going 5-for-5 at the plate.
Rogers of Puyallup and Tahoma remain alive after winning late games to finish the day 2-1. Emerald Ridge went 1-2. Kentlake and South Kitsap were 0-2.
Bellarmine Prep finished 19-6 after going 0-2 in the Lions' first-ever state fastpitch appearance.
Bellarmine coach Craig Coovert said the Lions enjoyed "a very special season," but he was disappointed in their play at state.
"We played tight, especially in the first game," he said. "We made a lot of errors that were not indicative of who we are."

Romantic Jealousy
Jealousy is probably one of the most-asked-about situations on my website. Either guys are jealous of their girlfriends going and talking to other guys, or girls are jealous about the attention their guys get when they´re out, or girls are trying to make their guys jealous so they start getting paid attention to ... the list goes on and on.
What makes jealousy so powerful? How can it be such a destructive force in a relationship, when many times it´s not even based on any ´real situation´?
This book is a HUGE help when looking at jealousy. Whether you tend to be a bit too jealous yourself, or whether you´re dealing with a partner who tends to be overjealous of you, the book gives real life examples of situations, and practical advice on how to deal with them.
Just about every relationship has run into jealousy problems at one point or another. They CAN be worked through. I highly suggest this book as a great way to help improve your own relationship.

Two injured in access road accident
Published 6:03 am, Monday, February 14, 2011
Two people were admitted to Covenant Hospital Plainview after a four-vehicle pile-up on Friday night on the I-27 access roads.
According to the report, Christina Munoz, 33, of Plainview was headed north in the 2800 block of the west I-27 Frontage Road just before 5:30 p.m. Friday. She reportedly failed to control her speed and rear-ended a 1997 GMC 1500 pickup driven by Burlyn Carl Vinson, 78, of Plainview, who then struck a 1997 Pontiac Grand Prix driven by Maelyn Nicole King, 28, of Plainview, who rear-ended a 1998 Ford Explorer driven by Alfredo Pena, 41, of Plainview.
The cars were waiting for Pena to make a left turn onto Castro Street, the report said. Munoz and King were taken to Covenant Hospital Plainview where they were both admitted Friday. King was released later that night, while Munoz was released on Sunday.
Hospital officials were not available for comment on their conditions this morning.
According to the report, no citations were issued.

May father was 65 when I was born. Even to myself, the statement sits funny, like one of those how-so brain teasers with the hidden loophole - the boy's mother is the doctor. But there is no loophole. He was my biological father, 20 years older than my mother. He had children late because he married late. I came in under the wire.
People invariably want to know what it was like growing up with an old father. Some want to know because they're coming to parenthood relaqtively late themselves and wonder how it will affect their children. Most are just rubbernecking. There's a ''Good God!;; in their tone, as thought I'd been suckled by wolves. Who fed whom, they're wondering. Did I dress him or did he dress me? To which I reply that he was a young 65, white-haired but red-blooded.
Granted, my upbringing seemed a little odd. I could recite the names of all the members of the Lawrence Welk musical family. I practiced phonemes by reading aloud from Modern Maturity. My first paying job, at age 7, was to sit on my father's lap with a pair of tweezers and cull overgrown ear hairs for 2 cents a pluck.
One thing I didn't do was engage in those ''When I'm age X, he'll be X'' calculations. Children live in the moment. If he was around next Saturday to drive me to the riding ring, that was good enough. We'd deal with the strangeness when we got to it. How will an 82-year-old cope with a 16-year-old? As best he could, and with frequent naps.
Fortunately for all involved, I wasn't a particularly difficult teen-ager. I remember one summer afternoon, walking out of the A&P with a roll of ''Ripe for Tonight'' avocado stickers I'd swiped from a stockboy's cart. My father, who'd been waiting in the car, said, ''What's under your sweatshirt?'' ''Nothing,'' I lied. He just shook his head and went back to his newspaper. For whatever reason, I never moved on to the big stuff: jewelry, clothing, actual avocados. I like to think my father's indifference took the thrill out of shoplifting. More likely, he was just lucky.Continue reading the main story
In the end, what most people fixate on is that my father was too old to - as they often put it - play ball with me. This is true. I can't recall ever seeing him run. He didn't swim or ride a bicycle or roller-skate. The extent of my father's physical activity was an evening constitutional to the end of Dogford Road, in his Irish tweed hat, whistling a tune and swinging a Hanover Hardware yardstick as if it were a brass-tipped cane. Perhaps that's why I didn't learn to swim as a child, why I was chosen last for gym teams. Perhaps, and who cares. Show me the support group for children of sedentary parents.
What stands out about myf ather arenot the things he couldn't do butthe things he did. That most of them were done from a sitting position hardly seems to matter. My father was an artist, a storyteller, a character. When I was 11, he painted a life-size elephant on the basement floor because elephants were my favorite animal. He taught me to draw, marking a squiggle on a sheet of paper and challenging me to finish the picture. He framed my finger paintings and hung them on the living room wall, and when guests commented, he'd make up the name of ''a noted abstract artist'' and wink at me. My father, in short, was a very cool dad. So he mixed Metamucil in his orange juice. So he turned the TV up loud. So his hands shook on the steering wheel. Of all the undesirable thing sfathers can be (absent, cruel, cold, immature), old is pretty weak poison.
Parenthood over 60 has its advantages. My father spent a good deal more time iwth me than the average 30-year-old father can afford to. Retirement is like endless paternity leave. Pop was my day care, my baby sitter, my play date. We didn't break a sweat together, but we had a lot of fun.
To be sure, it could easily have been otherwise. Old fathers are more likely to be invalid fathers, senile fathers, dead fathers. (I like to think I kept mine young at heart.) Sixty-five is not the ideal age to have a baby. You can be too old to be a parent. You can also be too young. Neither has all that much to do with years.
Would my father have been a better parent had he been 30 at the time I was born? Probably not. My father spent his 30's on the road with a theater troupe. He would have resented my arrival, the shelved aspirations, the loss of freedom I represented. As it was, I was a gift (or so I like to think), an unexpected coda on a long, full life.Continue reading the main story

Shodo - Japanese calligraphy art (shizuka - silenc...
Historically Japan is a culture that deeply appreciates the natural world - as seen through the expressive transitions of the four seasons. The Japanese learned to enjoy the beauty and fragility of nature seen in the moment - the transience of colour in the fields and mountains, the slight scent that the swaying wind brings, the trickling sound of melting snow, the change of autumn leaves to fallen leaves, the waxing and waning of the moon - which is directly connected to the enjoyment of life.
This is still the fundamental basis of the Japanese in leisure and sightseeing (tourism) in the modern day. The well known unique values of "wabi-sabi", where like the ever-changing seasons, humans are also a part of the natural course in nature. And the ideology of zen, to experience this flow of life with all of the five senses relates deeply to the Japanese way of thinking.

Photo Wallets
I really enjoy making photo wallets. They are very easy and make great gifts. The above two photo wallets were mementos I made for two of my friends after we spent a couple of days together in Orlando.
The measurements are as follows:
12 x 4 1/2 (I like to use doubled-sided cardstock so the inside and outside are different colors)
score at 3 1/4 & 6 5/8, turn paper around and score at 1 5/8 & 1 7/8
For the photo flaps you will need 3 pieces cut 8 x 3
score these at 4 (I like to round the corners)
Additionally, you will need cardstock for matting & journaling, embellishments, stamps, photos, etc. And, decorative paper & ribbon for finishing the front.
Have fun making your photo wallets!
p.s. I'm sorry, but I don't remember who to credit for originally get this idea from.

Aloha Notecard Holder
Happy Wednesday Everyone!
As you may or may not know, this year's Princess House travel trip is for Maui! So, I am making these note card holders as incentives for my team.
I originally got this idea from Dannie. You can see her video here:
I wanted my note cards to be larger, so I resized everything as follows:
Cardstock for note card holder 10 x 11 1/2, scored at 3 & 3 1/4, and 5 1/2 & 6
The colored cardstock for the note cards is 6 1/4 x 4 1/4. The white card stock is 6 x 4. The colored strips across the top are 1 1/8 x 4.
The envelopes I used are 4 1/2 x 6 1/2.
Please leave a comment if you like my take on this or if you have any suggestions.
Thanks for stopping by today. Hope to see you again next week.

This is a card I made for my brother's graduation. His school colors are navy & gold. The base of the card is brushed gold cardstock. I embossed the graduation cap in gold, cut it out, and attached it with pop dots. The 'lapels' are held down with gold brads. I used 'Word' to print the 'Congratulations Kevin!' sentiment. I must say, I had to print it a few times before I got the ink color to match the cardstock. Yes, I could have used the 'Congratulations' stamp, but I wanted it to be personalized. I thought the finished card was very elegant, yet still masculine. By the way, I cased it from a sample in a retired SU catalog. Hope you like the finished product!
Thanks for stopping by...see you next week.

V8 Utes – Round 5 podium
1st: Dave Sieders
2nd: Craig Dontas
3rd: Ryan Hansford
Mr 'Sideways' himself, David Sieders, has extended his V8 Utes Racing Series lead after taking out the final heat of the Castrol EDGE Townsville 400.
Making the most of his front row start, the Mango Credit Commodore pilot achieved a lights-to-flag finish after 11 laps of hard racing.
The win didn't come easy though, with Craig Dontas initially overtaking Sieders on the front straight, only to surrender his position at turn 1, before continuing to pile on the pressure throughout the entire race.
"It was great to extend the lead in the championship, and also a bonus that I was joined on the podium by my teammate Craig Dontas," Sieders said.
"This makes us back-to-back Townsville V8 Ute round winners, so overall it was a pretty good day for the Sieders Racing Team."
It proved to be an eventful race for Kim Jane who retired after making contact with returning, three-time series winner, Ryal Harris.
Ryal suffered a mechanical drama in the early stages, which saw both himself and Nathan Pretty – who was running 4th – retire from the race.
Mason Barbera also joined the non-finishers when he came to a halt on circuit at turn 3, while Supercars co-driver Steve Owen finished Sunday's heats 9th and 8th as he completed his one-off appearance in the category.
A round win for Sieders has seen him open up a 70 point lead over Hansford in the series standings.
The V8 Utes Racing Series will head to Mount Panorama for the next round from October 6-9.

Juventus reportedly met with Luis Muriel's agent this week in a bid to tempt the Udinese talent into joining them next season.
The Bianconeri have repeatedly been linked with an offer for Barcelona starlet Alexis Sanchez, but could be eyeing up his Friuli replacement instead.
According to the Corriere dello Sport, Juve director Beppe Marotta met with agent Claudio Vagheggi at the Vinovo training ground on Friday.
The two clubs have already done several deals recently, including transfers for Kwadwo Asamoah, Mauricio Isla and Michele Pazienza.
Newspapers suggest Udinese want around €14m for Muriel, but that price-tag could be lowered considerably if some players were included in the deal for the Colombian.

STORRS, Conn. (AP) — Breanna Stewart had 24 points and 10 rebounds to lead top-ranked UConn to an 81-64 victory over No. 4 Louisville on Sunday in a rematch of last season's national championship game.
Just as in the matchup last April, which UConn won by 33 points, Stewart and the Huskies were too much for Louisville. The win was UConn's 31st straight dating back to last season's title run. That's the fifth-longest winning streak in school history.
The Huskies (25-0, 12-0 American Athletic Conference) led by 11 at the half and when Louisville (23-2, 11-1) got within 47-40, Stewart answered with five straight points to ignite a 16-5 run that put the game away. Louisville could only get within 14 the rest of the way.
Asia Taylor scored 18 points to lead Louisville, which had its 16-game winning streak end. The Cardinals' only other loss came back on Dec. 1 against Kentucky.
Stewart, who scored 22 points in the national championship game, got UConn going in the first half. UConn only led 29-24 before the 6-foot-4 sophomore hit consecutive 3-pointers to give UConn its first double-digit lead of the game. The Huskies led 44-33 at the half.
UConn did receive a slight scare late in the first half when Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis went down with 18 seconds left, injuring her left elbow on a jump ball play.
Mosqueda-Lewis, who missed eight games with a nerve contusion of her right elbow, returned early in the second half with a sleeve over her left elbow, but didn't score. She finished the game with 13 points.
The Huskies could ill afford to lose her. UConn is already without forward Morgan Tuck, who recently underwent season-ending knee surgery. Guard Brianna Banks also missed her third straight game with an ankle injury.
Louisville guard Bria Smith missed her second straight game because of tendinitis in her knees.
Moriah Jefferson added a career-high 18 points for the Huskies, who improved to 8-0 against Top 25 teams, including victories over six of the top 10. They've won those games by an average of nearly 22 points.
The only currently ranked team left on UConn's schedule is a rematch against Louisville on the first Monday in March.
Louisville hasn't had much success against UConn, losing 14 of the past 15 meetings, including twice with the national championship on the line.
Sunday's game was the annual Play4Kay game. UConn wore uniforms with pink trim and all the fans were given pink pompoms. The Huskies were auctioning off their uniforms after the game for the charity.

A happy new year is, sadly, set to come to an abrupt halt for thousands of people in the next three months, with statistics from accountants Grant Thornton last week underlining the seriousness of the UK'S debt problem.
It has upped its prediction for the number of people declaring themselves insolvent this year from 110,000 to 120,000. Many will file for bankruptcy, but others will opt for an individual voluntary arrangement (IVA), a five-year repayment plan drawn up by an insolvency specialist and agreed to by creditors that is meant to reduce the overall amount owed.
IVAs have featured heavily in the pages of Cash in the past two years and not many of the stories have been positive. The sector has been troubled by tales of mis-selling, both by adverts exaggerating the benefits and by IVA 'factories' signing up individuals for whom an IVA is not suitable. There have also been accusations of exorbitant charges.
A friend of mine who ran up debts of £30,000 signed up to an IVA, but now wonders if she made the right decision. Over the life of the IVA, she ended up paying back nearly as much as she originally owed at £26,000; of this, she says her creditors got back £12,000 while the IVA company took £14,000.
The good news is the sector has started to clean up its act after both creditors and IVA companies agreed to a code of practice late last year. This comes into operation in February and, while it does not tackle the issue of fees, it does mean that both creditors and IVA companies are now both on the same page.
However, you should still not be swayed by the seasonal IVA push without being very clear about what you are signing up to. Citizens Advice say that in the final three months of last year they came across 60 cases of serious mis-selling of IVAs, as well as dozens of other less serious problems with this type of plan. Homeowners in particular need to be careful: the new code of practice means they will have to agree to release some of the equity in their homes, either through a secured loan or through remortgaging, near the end of the five-year plan.
Seek advice before you decide how to tackle your debt. Citizens Advice, the Consumer Credit Counselling Service and National Debtline will all be able to help you through the forest.

Our own wikipedia entry
Flo just found a 747 full of illegal copies of Snakes on a Plane. A national security victory.]]>
Clearly, it has NOTHING to do with preventing "professional" piracy. A mass-produced bit-copied disk will run just fine on any DRM-equipped player that the original would run on. It just makes it more difficult to extract a decent-sounding/looking copy for playing WITHOUT using the DVD, such as through your iPod.]]>
Ok, so someone recovers the secret key that allows a software player (MyPlayer.exe) to work.
The way to recover from the loss of a secret key is to disable the old key and distribute a new secret key.
How do you securely distribute the new secret key?
Do you encrypt it with yet another secret key? If so, what happens when the secret-key-encrypting-key is compromised?
Even if you do manage to distribute a new key, MyPlayer.exe will (most likely) still be vulnerable to having it's shiny new key stolen!
The only answer I see is to totally replace MyPlayer.exe and hope that the new version hides (security by obscurity!) its key better.
This, by the way, is the _easy_ scenario. It gets much harder when a hardware player is compromised (hardware being more expensive per unit to replace than software).]]>
It would poetic justice if Sony is stuck with the quandry of having to revoke all of their PS3s vs. having the reference driver for de-AACS emulating a PS3.]]>
Also it's my understanding that cryptography research did not design the current system, but their design will soon be implemented.
"That's untested stuff," Schneier said. "I'm not convinced it'll work."
February 8, 2007
It's not his fault. It's experimental and experiments often go wrong. People are going to copy entertainment. No matter what the corporations think up, somebody out there will break it. I guess the lesson here is, if it's not cracked sooner it will be later.
My understanding is that the mechanism they have designed, SPDC, acts as a layer over AACS and has not been implemented (and therefore cracked) yet.
Not sure if anyone cares to comment or has anymore information.]]>
"""Maybe start tracking debuggers like dangerous items (dynamite, guns (well maybe not guns), spray paint, etc.)"""
Possession of an unlicensed or unregistered debugger is a serious crime: http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/right-to-read.html.]]>
So this has nothing to do with preventing piracy and illegal downloading then? Each key gets cracked in turn, and all of that prior content is then free to be ripped and distributed. At best, it delays the time that the content is cracked by... errr... not very much time at all. Even if they revoke these particular keys, the same crack will work for the next lot of keys, no?
In any case, I seem to remember reading that the in the vast majority of film piracy cases (ie. large scale copying and distribution, not you making a copy for Granny), the illegal copies originate from *within* the film industry.
Seems more like this model exists to ensure that honest customers have to keep repurchasing digital content as the hardware evolves.]]>
Unfortunately, this is exactly what the market for media is demanding. The suppliers are willing to supply the media "under certain conditions" and the consumers appear to be willing to buy the media under those conditions.
My greatest fear is that our freedom to tinker will become a casualty in the legislative side that is sure to get worse than it already is. I'm not talking about breaking-and-entering hacking, I'm talking about programmer hobbyists, hardware hackers, anyone with enough technical knowledge and the desire to "crack open the box" (it IS their property, isn't it?) and learn what they can make it do. _That_ freedom is being eroded by the media fascists (c.f. Moussolini's definition of "fascism") whose only concern is feeding the Addiction to Media that profits them so well. And because it's only a vanishingly small minority of us who actually care about that freedom, the Media Slave generation will fail to see the problem with abolishing it.]]>
IMHO, AACS is sophisticated enough that we may not see a total breakdown the way DeCSS did. However, that added sophistication also gives more points of attack. You can break the protected key, the device key, the title key, or a few others. In the long run, this will likely have the same practical effect as DeCSS.]]>
"The only solution I see is not actually allowing the user that much control over their computer."
That is the slippery slope to which Microsoft have committed themselves with Vista.
At the bottom of that slide is a so-called "PC" that is little more than an expensive multi-media player, games box and internet advertising platform, where the user is treated with suspicion but any code from Microsoft or their partners is allowed to run with impunity.]]>
Then there is the device key which is what got broken now. You use the device key to unencrypt the disk key. This key (the device key) can be invalidated but I think at that point all devices with that key will not be able to play newer disks pressed without that key. This is a software device I think so no biggie distributing a new key to their users as longs as the device manufacturer is given a new key of course.
There may be other layers of keys though I don't know about them.
Even though on the surface this is not a class brake, it is close to it. What happens is that for new disks that don't include this particular key, what they can do is put an old disk on the new player and since they know what the volume key is (the decrypt it with the old device key), they can easily search it in the memory. Then it is trivial (to them) to get the new device key which sets the wheels in motion again.
I suspect the company making this software will have to get better at protecting the key in memory. I just don't know how they can even begin to do that since even if they could do the whole process involving the key in registers (hard to do with non x64 cpus) that can still be looked at with debuggers.
The only solution I see is not actually allowing the user that much control over their computer. Maybe start tracking debuggers like dangerous items (dynamite, guns (well maybe not guns), spray paint, etc.)]]>
Is this a single secret key that's been extracted from perhaps a software player? Is this software that runs on the VM on your high-street HD-DVD or Blu-Ray player, that extracts the secret key it uses to play disks? Is this software that examines a disk and directly discovers the keys needed to play it, without needing a player secret key? or what?
And where can I find out more about these sinister BD+ countermeasures?]]>
I guess that is why they don't want too many people to know much about it.]]>
"Why do 213,000 results take less time than 32[...]?"
Probably because after having estimated that there are 213,000 and 32 results respectively for the two queries, the scan to find 10 matches to show on the first result page needs to examine much more potential matches before finding 10 actual matches when there are only 3 than it does when there are 213,000.]]>
"BD+ allows for a dynamic encryption scheme, meaning that if the protection were to be cracked, manufacturers could simply change the encryption scheme on new discs, so one single crack could not open up all BD-ROM discs."
"Little is publicly known about the actual capabilities and specifications of BD+,"
Search Results 1 - 10 of about 213,000 for BD+. (0.12 seconds)
News Results 1 - 10 of about 32 for BD+. (0.18 seconds)
Why do 213,000 results take less time than 32 and why isn't BD+ newsworthy?
What is "experimental Digital Rights Management (DRM) mechanism"? Does that mean it operates outside of the law? I could see them in court. "Yeah judge it was experimental. You get the rights we decide on with our top secret code." The public is being experimented on. It sounds like a virus platform, that isn't well documented.
This also allows users to watch movies over digital display connection without needing an HDCP compliant graphics card and HDCP compliant display.]]>

Bermuda cruises do well because it is alot less expensive to cruise to Bermuda then hop on a plane and stay there. For a week in August flight and hotel (hamilton Princess) is $3,416. for two. Now one has to add food and drinks....and the food bill adds up real fast in the islands. That flight is just from Newark which is only 2 hours so depending where you are flight can be alot more.
Now do Bermuda by cruise for two it can be around $1,800. food included drinks extra. (airfare if needed) Summit and Breakaway dock for 3 full days Explorer docks for 2 days.
But, if someone wants Bermuda rather than paying to be at sea, the hotel stay breaks down to $488 a day. The cruise breaks down to $600 a day for your three days in Bermuda. I've spent two weeks on a land trip in Bermuda, it was fantastic. That experience cannot be replicated on a ship.

The Special Court for Sierra Leone, a hybrid criminal tribunal established to try persons accused of serious crimes during the conflict in Sierra Leone, has recently commenced its judicial operations. Several of the preliminary issues raised by various defendants have required the Court to examine the validity of the amnesty granted to combatants by the Lomé Peace Agreement and the amnesty's impact upon the Court's jurisdiction to try the defendants. This article examines the decisions of the Court on the amnesty issue and evaluates the jurisprudence of the Court with reference to the current status of amnesties in international law.

Alzheimer's Drug Flurizan Fails in Late-Stage Testing
June 30, 2008
Flurizan, an experimental drug that had been undergoing late-stage testing, failed to show benefits for easing the memory loss and thinking problems of Alzheimer's disease.
The findings are very disappointing because Flurizan was one of a new class of Alzheimer's medications that work in a new way. Unlike existing Alzheimer's drugs like Aricept, Exelon and Namenda, which may ease symptoms but do not stop the downward progression of disease, Flurizan was aimed at underlying disease processes and sought to modify the course of Alzheimer's.
"We are disappointed that Flurizan failed to achieve significance in this study, and we will now discontinue development of this compound," said Peter Meldrum, President and Chief Executive Officer of Myriad Genetics, the company that makes the drug.
Flurizan is aimed at beta-amyloid, the toxic protein that builds up and forms plaques in the brains of those with Alzheimer's. Researchers were hoping that it might offer a new avenue of attack for stemming the decline of dementia. But the drug, which goes by the generic name tarfenflurbil, did not improve thinking and memory skills or the ability to carry out everyday tasks compared to a placebo.
The drug had shown promise in mid-stage trials in Britain earlier this spring. [See the article, "Experimental Drug Flurizan May Slow Decline of Mild Alzheimer's"] The most recent trial was larger, involving some 1,700 men and women with mild Alzheimer's disease who were given the drug over 18 months.
Most scientists believe that beta-amyloid causes the major symptoms of Alzheimer's. The failure of Flurzan does not, in the opinion of Fisher Center scientists, cast doubt on that hypothesis. However, the latest testing failure does underscore the need to carry on research aimed at answering fundamental questions about Alzheimer's and what the best therapeutic targets are, a goal that will eventually lead to a cure.
Other companies are testing different drugs in late-stage testing. Wyeth and Elan, for example, are testing a drug called bapineuzumab. The drug is what's called a monoclonal antibody, an immune-system protein that clears toxic beta-amyloid from the brain in a different way than Flurizan. Dozens more drugs are in development.
It may take years of additional research to find a medication that is safe and effective and that may halt, or even reverse, Alzheimer's. The Fisher Center for Alzheimer's Research Foundation continues to fund critical research into the underlying causes of the disease and in finding new kinds of treatments — research that may one day lead to a cure.

Pro Bono O.R. is making a difference
One of our volunteers recently ran a workshop for AYME (Association of Young People with ME). Here's what the Chair of AYME had to say: 'I wanted to officially thank you on behalf of myself and my fellow trustees for the very helpful and enlightening session. I very much believe it was exactly the kind of help/input that we needed to help us focus on the future. The follow up work that you have so far provided to help us make sense of and prioritise the results of the session is also proving to be invaluable and we very much look forward to meeting you again for a follow up session at a future board meeting.'

Brendan Rodgers has has confirmed that Daniel Sturridge's appearance in Liverpool's second last match of the season against Crystal Palace is not certain.
Liverpool will check on the fitness of Daniel Sturridge over the next two days ahead of the side's trip to Selhurst Park to face Crystal Palace on Monday evening.
The England international suffered from a hamstring issue during Liverpool's 3-2 win over Manchester City earlier in April. The knock prevented him from featuring for the Reds in the Norwich clash. He did however, came on as a substitute last week in Liverpool's 2-0 home loss against Chelsea. Sturridge did not do anything spectacular after being brought on and failed to inspire his team to get the important win.
Brendan Rodgers was asked for an update on Sturridge's condition during his pre-match press conference and the Norther Irishman obliged them by saying:
"We'll see over the next 48 hours," said the Northern Irishman. "He hadn't trained since he got injured in the [Manchester City game], so it was a bit much [against Chelsea].
"He had worked really hard to get back and we needed something on the bench that could support us and help us in the game but unfortunately, it wasn't to be.
"But he's certainly in a much better place. He's worked tirelessly this week with the medical team. He re-joins the group and we'll see how he is come Monday."
Sturridge has scored 23 goals for the Mersesyside team this season. He has had a slight dip in form recently, having not scored in his last four appearances.
Liverpool will need to find the inspiration to get a win against Tony Pulis's side with or without Sturridge, although the Reds would surely hope they are with the striker for the important match. The Reds are leading the table at the moment. However, Manchester City have a game in hand and if the Sky Blues win the remaining matches, and Rodgers's men are able to do the same, the two teams would be tied on points and the outcome would be decided on goal difference- City have a clear advantage on that front.
Therefore, Brendan Rodgers would want Sturridge to be fit for the match and help his team get a victory at Selhust Park, a place which Tony Pulis has made his own this year. Liverpool looked short of ideas in the Chelsea match, where Luis Suarez played as a lone striker. Rodgers's preferred 4-4-2 (diamond) formation requires two forwards and SAS have been doing a terrific job so far. Raheem Sterling was moving in Sturridge's position in the Norwich match and did a good job in getting Liverpool a victory, but proved to be ineffective against the impenetrable Chelsea defence.

Members of the Arbroath-based 45 Commando Veterans (Scotland) celebrated the fifth birthday of their group with a special party at the weekend. On Saturday afternoon members gathered in the Foundry Bar where the occasion was marked with a suitably adorned cake and a few glasses of port. Since the group formed five years ago members have been committed to supporting worthwhile local causes by raising money and donating items. As part of the 350th anniversary celebrations of the Royal Marine Corps the group will host a Corps Dinner later this year and in November will fly to Malta to take part in the island's Armistice Day Parade.

However, I see that the iMac keyboard is still causing a kernel panic, and my "Great Quality" genero USB keyboard still goes dead by the time the root filesystem is mounted (or attempted, currently I rely on being about to tell it the correct root partition on the local disk -- such things did work as of 1.4.2). So far, all of 1.5 and later are zero-for-zero on my iMac. This stopped working in the middle of 2000 when some console cleanups went in and exposed whatever it is that has been busted on my iMac. I've tried USB_DEBUG and set a few of the {ohci,ukbd,uhub}debug variables to 20, but they don't seem to be printing much -- I'm pretty sure I redid config and make depend correctly, though. Hmm. Anyway, could somebody familiar with USB debugging give me some pointers here. I've had a nice 333Mhz grape iMac sitting here not doing much because it can only run 1.4.x, and what I really need it for is -current. Todd Whitesel toddpw @ best.com

|Potter Wasp and Mud Pot Nest - Euodynerus sp.
Family Vespidae - hornets, paper and potter wasps, yellowjackets.
Live adult wasps photographed in the wild at Winfield, Illinois. Size: 13mm
Insects & Spiders | Bees & Wasps Index | Bees & Wasps Main | Stinging Insects
Potter wasps construct mud "pots" or nest in underground burrows, cavities in plant stems, or abandoned nests of other wasps. Adult potter wasps are commonly seen on the ground searching for prey or nectaring at flowers. They are common and can be numerous. I have encountered them thousands of times, and never once have they taken notice of me. I've never heard of anyone being stung by one.
Potter wasps nests can have one or more individual cells. When a cell is completed, the adult wasp collects a beetle larvae, spider or caterpillar and paralyzes it with venom and places it in the cell to serve as fresh, living food for the larva. In a few species, the adult wasp lays a single egg in the opening of the cell, suspended from a thread of dried fluid. When the wasp larva hatches, it drops and immediately feeds upon the larvae, and later breaks out of the nest to begin its adult life. Adult potter wasps feed on plant nectar.
This female potter wasp has captured and paralyzed a caterpillar with which to provision her mud pot egg chamber.
After hatching, the wasp larva eats the still-living host.
belong to this large order, which also includes sawflies. Most species are solitary, but some, such as the domestic honeybee, exhibit a complex social structure in which exist sterile female workers and fertile male and female royalty.

Labor celebrates Franklin Dam ban 30 years on
It's 30 years since the High Court upheld the Hawke government's decision to stop construction of a dam on Tasmania's Franklin River. In Sydney last night, Mr Hawke and the Federal Environment Minister, Mark Butler, gathered with a Labor environmental activist group to celebrate the anniversary. Mr Hawke encouraged the Labor Party to embrace environmental issues and make more of its record.
ELIZABETH JACKSON: It's 30 years since the Australian High Court upheld the Hawke government's decision to stop construction of a dam on Tasmania's Franklin River.
In Sydney last night, Mr Hawke and the Federal Environment Minister, Mark Butler, gathered with a Labor environmentalist activist group to celebrate the anniversary.
Eliza Harvey went along.
ELIZA HARVEY: Twelve-hundred people were arrested protesting against the construction of the Franklin Dam in south-west Tasmania - 500 went to jail.
It's where the future Greens leader Bob Brown started his political career, and former prime minister Bob Hawke paid tribute to him last night.
BOB HAWKE: Great credit must be given to the activists, led by Bob Brown. There'd never been anything like it before in terms of involving the public on an issue as important as that of the environment. And so while I was able to provide political leadership, I had such a firm backing of activism which made it that much easier.
ELIZA HARVEY: The Federal Environment Minister Mark Butler told the function that the Franklin Dam leaves an important legacy for Australia.
MARK BUTLER: It had the claim that thousands of jobs would be foregone if the Gordon below Franklin was not dammed. It gave rise to some quite quirky new fashions about protests that saw people start to write stuff on ballot papers, to the point where in 1982 Flinders by-election, 42 per cent of people marked their ballot papers with 'no dams'.
It was a campaign that just moved the whole country.
ELIZA HARVEY: Bob Hawke thinks the Franklin battle shows the need for strong leadership in the face of ongoing opposition and pressure.
BOB HAWKE: The message is very simple in terms of leadership: you look at the issue, you make up your mind what's the right thing to do, and you go ahead and do it, irrespective of what backlashes there may be. You've got to do the right thing.
ELIZA HARVEY: So how should the Labor Party draw on the legacy of the Franklin campaign now in 2013?
BOB HAWKE: Well the first thing is to keep environmental issues very much in the forefront of your thinking; to consider them in the context of economic growth. There's too many I think in the green movement who tend to ignore economic considerations entirely - that's wrong. You've got to balance the two, which is I think the lesson of that period of government of 83 to 91, of my period. I think we got the balance right, but you must get the balance right.
ELIZABETH JACKSON: That's the former prime minister Bob Hawke ending that report from Eliza Harvey.

Switch (Hardcover)
How to Change Things When Change Is Hard
Currency, 9780385528757, 305pp.
Publication Date: February 16, 2010
- The home-organizing guru who developed a simple technique for overcoming the dread of housekeeping
- The manager who transformed a lackadaisical customer-support team into service zealots by removing a standard tool of customer service In a compelling, story-driven narrative, the Heaths bring together decades of counterintuitive research in psychology, sociology, and other fields to shed new light on how we can effect transformative change. Switch shows that successful changes follow a pattern, a pattern you can use to make the changes that matter to you, whether your interest is in changing the world or changing your waistline.
About the Author
Praise For Switch: How to Change Things When Change Is Hard…
"Witty and instructive…The Heath brothers think that the sciences of human behavior can provide us with tools for making changes in our lives—tools that are more effective than 'willpower,' 'leadership' and other easier-said-than-done solutions. …For any effort at change to succeed, the Heaths argue, you have to 'shape the path.' With Switch they have shaped a path that leads in a most promising direction."
--The Wall Street Journal
"'Your brain is not of one mind,'" say the brothers Heath, co-authors of the bestseller Made to Stick. Using the terminology of University of Virginia psychologist Jonathan Haidt, the Heaths designate the emotional side of the mind as the Elephant and the rational side as the Rider…Switch is crammed with stories…covering a number of fields to drive home the importance of using the strengths of both the Rider and the Elephant to make change happen. This could be a valuable read for the would-be change-makers of the Obama administration."
--Fort Worth Star-Telegram
"Whether you're a manager, a parent or a civic leader, getting people to change can be tricky business. In Switch, brothers Chip and Dan Heath--authors of the best-selling Made to Stick--survey efforts to shape human behavior in search of what works…Even when change isn't easy, it's often worth making."
"Dan and Chip Heath have done it again…Any leader looking to create change in his organization need not look beyond this little book. It is packed with examples and hands-on tools that will get you moving right away. And it is really a fun read."
"No one likes change. Trouble is, of course, that everyone probably needs at least some of it. Here, the authors of the bestselling Made to Stick return with a book that looks at all aspects of change in human lives, from dieting to spending, from corporations to governments...a readable, entertaining and thought-provoking book. "

I actually think that the problem is that some people think the words are 'tex', 'texing' and 'texed'. This is how certain friends of mine seem to be saying it, anyway. So they say 'I texed you this morning' when I would say 'I texted (text-ed) you this morning'. Strange as it may seem, but some people have got so sloppy with English grammar! I blame the schools......
Of course texted is pronounced text-ed. The same as shouted is pronounced shout-ed. Let's get English grammar taught properly again - even 'new' words like these should be written and pronounced correctly!!

Colaco struck a defeated figure after his side lost 0-1 to Sporting Clube de Goa at the Duler Stadium.
"It's bad now and nothing else. We had to win this game and there were chances. It's bad specially with the injuries. Rowilson (Rodrigues) got another cut and is ruled out, Debrabrata (Roy) is also injured. I don't know what I will do in Pune and then in Kolkata," said the former India coach at the post match briefing.
"Ryuji Sueoka is also out. He has a hamstring problem so he might not recover and maybe out for the whole season. We will carry on with the players I have and try to fight for second or third place," he added.
Colaco felt that the game picked up steam in the second half and attributed the slow nature of the match in the first half to the humid conditions due to the 3 pm kickoff.
The Goans are in the middle of a rut as they have only picked up 2 points out of a possible 12 in the I-League.
"Our usual Dempo style is not being played. If we play our normal game, things will change. If we don't it is going to be very very difficult. Some of the newcomers are impatient," clarified Armando.
"Dempo has a different style of play. We like to keep the possession of the ball, find an opening and then score. Now everybody wants the ball on top. It's a different type of football which we usually don't play, or at least I don't agree with," added the coach.
Armando is a staunch believer of possession football even when other I-League teams resorted to long ball tactics and had implemented this approach during his short stint with the Indian national side.
"I like to build up patiently and that's how we won five I-League titles. Different coaches have different techniques and my approach is this," said Colaco.
With Dempo releasing manager Custodio Almeida of his duties before the end of the season, Colaco was probed on the reasons for the same.
"It was long overdue. The manager and the coach also will be gone. There are so many players also will be gone. It's a transition period. Senior players will make way for youngsters. Our style of play, Dempo's style is totally different. A different coach will try a different style of football. He (Almeida) is a diabetic patient," signed off the 59-year old.

Coupons, used wisely and selectively, can be a great way to save money from your food budget. Here are some tips to start you on your way to becoming a coupon guru.
1. Don't use coupons just because they are a "good deal". Try to limit coupon use to products you would normally buy anyway. Coupons are most often offered to entice shoppers to buy high priced, highly processed convenience foods, so in some cases it may be cheaper and healthier to make your own home made version of the product from scratch.
2. Keep your coupons organized in a binder or special coupon holder and sorted by category. Go through your coupons every week or so and throw out any that have expired.
3. Look for coupons that come in packs in the mail, in magazines, or with in the inserts with the Sunday papers. Ask your coworkers, friends and neighbors to save their ad packs from the mail and Sunday newspaper inserts for you.
4. Use your favorite search engine to find printable coupon sites online.
5. If your family has some favorite products that are pricey, then take the time to bookmark the manufacturers' web sites and check weekly or so for any product coupons or specials.
6. If the coupons you have are for foods that are not healthy for your family, then they may not be a good deal, even if you get the products for free. Products like soda that are high in sugar and devoid of any nutrients may be best left at the store.
7. Watch out for people selling coupon books. It may be a scam. Generally it is not necessary to pay for something you can clip for free from the newspaper or download from manufacturers' web sites.
8. Don't forget to look for coupons when you are at the grocery store. Some stores have machines set up that dispense coupons near selected products.
9. Consider participating in online forums where people exchange their unused coupons for ones that they need.
10. Find out if your local stores offer double coupon days.
11. To save time at the check out line, have your coupons sorted, organized and ready to hand to the cashier.
12. Keep a price book of the best prices you've found for food and other products, so you will know if you are getting a good deal using a coupon. Sometimes generic store brands may offer cheaper alternatives to national bran...

Saint-Etienne coach Christophe Galtier believed that it would be damaging to Ligue 1 if Carlo Ancelotti leaves Paris Saint-Germain.
Speculation linking the Italian with a move to Real Madrid has heightened with Jose Mourinho's departure having been confirmed but the French coach believes it would be a real disappointment if the title-winning coach left.
"It's a shame for French football, it would be a shame for the French coaches, especially young people like me," the 46-year-old told Canal+.
"If we can bring in the best coaches, we must be guided by the likes of Carlo Ancelotti, in terms of communication, behaviour and management. He is attractive to a club like Real Madrid, we can understand that."
Galtier guided Saint-Etienne to fourth in Ligue 1 with a game to go and can still reach the third and final Champions League spot if they can better the result of Olympique Lyonnais on the final day of the season.
Ancelotti and Galtier were voted joint Coach of the Year earlier in May and the Frenchman has stressed what an honour it was to share the accolade with the Italian trainer.
"To share this trophy with a man like Carlo Ancelotti, it is not just anything," he added. "Carlo is world class."
Saint-Etienne's final game of the season is against Lille on May 26.
