Kukla's Korner Hockey
Are Teams Interested In Evgeni Nabokov?
by Paul on 10/15/11 at 09:10 PM ET
Comments (4)
from Katie Strang of the New York Hockey Blog at ESPN New York,
The Islanders could be showcasing the 36-year-old netminder in hopes of trading him.
Capuano's decision was a puzzling one, especially since starter Al Montoya played so well in the team's first three games. The 26-year-old is 2-1-0 with a 1.35 GAA and .953 save percentage.
Nabokov, one of three goaltenders that made the team out of training camp, received little playing time this preseason and was scratched the first two regular-season games. The former Vezina Trophy finalist makes his first start Saturday after a lengthy layoff; he last played in an NHL game in May 2010.
Asked if any teams have inquired about Nabokov, general manager Garth Snow said through a team spokesman that he "doesn't discuss his dealings with other GM's."
Scouts from Vancouver, Carolina, San Jose, Phoenix and Columbus are listed on the Islanders seating chart for Saturday's game.

Sounds about right for the way the Isles work.
Acquire him off waivers when he doesn't want to go, get into a public, long argument over it with him… bring him in the next year with him finally committing to the team… then jerk him around and shop him to someone else, thus angering him after he finally made the commitment you demanded of him.

Why am I not surprised?
Posted by SandysWingingit on 10/16/11 at 02:34 AM ET
Bitter, bitter little girls. These comments are typical trash. Isles own his rights. Tough. Live with it. And just because Strang says they're shopping him doesn't make it so.
Posted by fan from ny on 10/16/11 at 05:27 AM ET
I hope Garth Snow can't trade him in for a lawn mower.

Solutions Overview
This script is Copyright (C) 2013-2015 Tenable Network Security, Inc.
Synopsis : The remote Oracle Linux host is missing one or more security updates. Description : From Red Hat Security Advisory 2010:0126 : Updated kvm packages that fix two security issues and two bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. This update has been rated as having important security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team. KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) is a full virtualization solution for Linux on AMD64 and Intel 64 systems. KVM is a Linux kernel module built for the standard Red Hat Enterprise Linux kernel. A flaw was found in the way the x86 emulator loaded segment selectors (used for memory segmentation and protection) into segment registers. In some guest system configurations, an unprivileged guest user could leverage this flaw to crash the guest or possibly escalate their privileges within the guest. (CVE-2010-0419) The x86 emulator implementation was missing a check for the Current Privilege Level (CPL) while accessing debug registers. An unprivileged user in a guest could leverage this flaw to crash the guest. (CVE-2009-3722) This update also fixes the following bugs : With Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization, the virtio_blk_dma_restart_bh() function was previously used to handle write errors however, a bug fix provided by the RHSA-2009:1659 update meant that read errors would also have to be handled by this function. The function was not updated for this, causing read errors to be resubmitted as writes. This caused guest image corruption in some cases. Additionally, the return values of the bdrv_aio_write() and bdrv_aio_read() functions were ignored. If an immediate failure occurred in one of these functions, errors would be missed and the guest could hang or read corrupted data. (BZ#562776) All KVM users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to resolve these issues. Note: The procedure in the Solution section must be performed before this update will take effect. See also : https://oss.oracle.com/pipermail/el-errata/2010-March/001372.html Solution : Update the affected kvm packages. Risk factor : High / CVSS Base Score : 7.1 (CVSS2#AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C) CVSS Temporal Score : 5.3 (CVSS2#E:U/RL:OF/RC:C) Public Exploit Available : false

Hamilton Building Expansion
During the groundbreaking ceremonies for the new Denver Museum of Contemporary Art last week, executive director Cydney Payton addressed the crowd (see "Next Up"). In her remarks, she pointed out that the MCA was "not a hundred-million-dollar project," since it's projected to cost only $15 million. Though she didn't say so, she was obviously referring to the Hamilton Building expansion at the Denver Art Museum, which is going to cost just about $100 million.
The public contribution to the Hamilton is $62.5 million, and at the time of the bond election, I made the observation that this was the amount it would cost to buy one good Van Gogh. Now, the approximately $100 million the Hamilton is going to cost in total is what it takes to get an important Picasso.
This was proved last week when an anonymous buyer purchased the artist's "Dora Maar With Cat" (pictured), an oil on canvas from 1941, for an astounding $95.2 million at a Sotheby's auction. One of the most interesting things about the Maar portrait, which was in the private Gidwitz collection in Chicago, is that it was little known before the sale, having not been exhibited in almost half a century.
Hamilton Building Expansion
The painting is an example of Picasso's surrealist phase, and the sale price represents the second highest ever paid for a work of art. The most expensive was another Picasso, "Boy With a Pipe," from 1905, which brought $104.1 million in 2004, also at Sotheby's.

The skyrocketing values for Picassos must give the powers-that-be at the DAM some pause. In 1995, the institution gave a small Picasso to Santa Fe art dealer Gerald Peters in exchange for three minor paintings by major Southwestern artists. Then, in 1997, the DAM considered selling its 1937 "Still Life" by Picasso. This surrealist painting is stylistically related to the artist's "Guernica," which is universally considered one of the greatest works of art of all time.
I was tipped off about the possible sale of "Still Life" and had a verbal joust about it with Dan Jacobs, then the deputy director of the DAM and now director of the Victoria H. Myhren Gallery at the University of Denver. Jacobs suggested that the piece just didn't fit into the DAM's collection. I told him, "The Rockies may crumble, Gibraltar may tumble, but the Denver Art Museum will always have room for that Picasso."
And, as it turns out, I was right. DAM curator Dianne Vanderlip stepped up and stopped the sale. I'm no art appraiser, but it's clear that "Still Life" is worth at least $5 to $10 million, putting it in a league of its own among the pieces at the DAM. In fact, at the same sale where "Dora Maar With Cat" was sold, a Picasso from the '60s, a formerly disregarded period for the artist, brought more than $5 million.
In addition to "Still Life," the DAM also has many fine prints by the artist, as well as the gorgeous Cézanne-esque "Horta de Ebro" painting from 1909, originally from the Hendrie collection. With the Maar portrait selling for such a stratospheric price, it's unlikely the DAM will ever get any more Picasso paintings than it already has, making it all the better that the disposal of "Still Life" was aborted. Count on both "Still Life" and "Horta de Ebro" being on display somewhere at the DAM when the Hamilton opens in October.

They always have been and they always will be. Here are three tips to help you pick the perfect one for you. Advertisement Real leather jackets are expensive, so it's important it fits nicely and is of quality build. In this video from the Real Men Real Style YouTube channel, Antonio Centeno explains a few things you should look for in a nice leather jacket:High-cut armholes: The armholes of the jacket should be as high as you can stand them. This gives you the most freedom of movement for your shoulders and arms. Lower-quality jackets will have wide, low-cut armholes.Mind the jacket's silhouette: Just because a jacket fits you doesn't mean it makes you look good. Make sure the shape of your jacket broadens your shoulders, slims your waist, makes your arms look proportional, and generally enhance your natural look.Know your leather: If you know the differences between leathers, you'll have an easier time picking the right jacket that fits in your price range. Cow leather is the cheapest and most common, but lamb leather is much softer and costs a little more. There are also three major cuts of leather (from lowest to highest quality): genuine, top grain, and full grain. It's also important to know that country of origin doesn't necessarily change the quality of the jacket.While these tips are geared toward men in the video, the same tips apply when buying a women's leather jacket. Even the cheap leather jackets out there are kind of expensive, so make sure you do your research before buying one. 3 Tips to Buying Perfect Leather Jacket | YouTubeContact the author at email@example.com repliesLeave a reply

AngloGold sees 2013 production at Congo's Mongbwalu
BUNIA, Democratic Republic of Congo (Reuters) - A ngloGold Ashanti has started construction at its confirmed 2.5 million ounces deposit Mongbwalu mine in north eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, the company said on Friday.
The firm aims to start pouring gold by the end of 2013 from the mine, which lies in the formerly war-torn region of Ituri, a renowned gold bearing area, said Richard Peattie, the mine's general manager.
"We want this to become one of the cornerstones for AngloGold Ashanti in this region," Peattie told Reuters.
The construction phase is being accelerated to prove the company's commitment to the region, where ongoing insecurity has hampered exploration, Peattie said.
The mine is expected to be the first of several projects on AngloGold's 6.000 km2 Ituri concession, where the company holds a 86.22 percent stake in a joint venture with the government.
"There's no doubt that this place has got immense potential, just a little bit of drilling that we've done around here would suggest that we can make this into something special," Peattie said, declining to give details of investment costs.
The Ituri region was the scene of brutal ethnic warfare during Congo's second civil conflict, which ended in 2003, and the area remains heavily dependent on informal artisanal mining to drive its fragile economic recovery.
AngloGold also has a 45 percent stake in a joint venture with Randgold and the DRC authorities in the Kibali mine project, which has probable reserves of more than 10 million ounces and is also expected to start producing by end-2013.

Today I welcome David Khara, author of The Bleiberg Project, an amazing conspiracy thriller based on World War II and its consequences in today's world. This fast-pace novel is the first in the Consortium Thriller series. The book was an instant success in France, catapulting the author to the ranks of France's top thriller writers. Today marks the launch in English by Le French Book, a digital-first publisher specializing in best-selling mysteries and thrillers from France.
David Khara:
Bringing a Hero to Life
How do you bring a hero to life? I've lost count of how many times I've been asked that question. And when I answer, most people seem surprised. Imagine for a second a six-foot-six bald giant, survivor of the death camps becomes a war criminal killer. Now, think about that character being inspired by a woman.
Eytan, the real hero of the Consortium thriller series came to me after reading and watching testimonials of Simone Lagrange, who survived the death camps. For a long time, I chose not to talk about it. I did so out of respect, because I wrote an entertaining series, and I didn't want to make any profit on people's misery and pain. But, behind the entertainment, The Bleiberg Project, and the whole series, pays tribute to the victims of World War II, be they members of the resistance, or of course, victims of the Shoah. During my research, I found amazing, incredible stories, lived by ordinary, mostly anonymous heroes. Believe me, after spending three years digging into madness and cruelty, you really need those heroes if you want to keep believing in mankind.
If there is one thing The Bleiberg Project's success makes me proud of, it is that I now have the opportunity to really talk about these real-life heroes. And Simone Lagrange is one of them.
To survive and to resist
She was 13 when the Gestapo arrested her. She was questioned and tortured by the war criminal Klaus Barbie. Then she was sent to Auschwitz's hell. But she survived, and she came back. I won't tell you the whole story, she wrote a magnificent book (Coupable d'être née, or Guilty of Being Born). If it hasn't been translated, it is worth learning French to read it!
In 1972, a French journalist named Ladislas de Hoyos interviewed a man in Argentina who was thought to be Klaus Barbie. The man denied being the war criminal. But Simone Lagrange saw the interview, and she recognized him. In 1987, she testified during Barbie's trial in Lyon, revealing, certainly for the first time, that her father had been shot in front of her. Eventually, Barbie was sentenced to life imprisonment and died in jail four years later.
To find out more about this trial, I strongly recommend you read this NY Times article: http://www.nytimes.com/1987/08/02/magazine/voices-from-the-barbie-trial.html?pagewanted=all&src=pm
Hope and laughter
Once again, I told you the short story. But the journey it tells is of the utmost importance. Simone Lagrange had survived and she lived to see her torturer brought to justice. And now, she testifies in front of children and cameras. In a world that lacks memory, she brings memory. But she doesn't speak of vengeance; she doesn't scream her hatred. With amazing energy, Simone tells us of hope and laughter, even in the most unexpected and most cruel moments. She tells us of survival and of the value of life itself.
Simone Lagrange also said, "I didn't become what they would have wanted me to be." That's what resistance to barbarism is about. That's the sentence from which Eytan was born. I hope at some points in the series, the man he is pays a little tribute to this extraordinary woman and to those who, like her, fought for their right to live. At least, because of the book, some of you will now know about Simone Lagrange. And as a writer and a man, this is more than reward enough.

Additional fellowship positions to be offered in Spring 2010
January 19, 2010
PNNL post-doc fellows are using powerful mass spectrometers to develop a detailed molecular-level understanding of reactions necessary for improved catalysts.
RICHLAND, Wash. – The Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory has selected the first-ever recipients of the Pacific Northwest Distinguished Post-Doctoral Fellowship.
Grant Johnson and Xiao Lin have been chosen as the first two distinguished post-doctoral fellows at PNNL. As part of the selection process, both candidates presented independent research proposals and, through the fellowship program, will receive funding to conduct their proposed research at PNNL for the next two to three years.
"We believe strongly in building the next generation of scientists and in advancing the frontiers of science," said Steven Ashby, deputy director for science and technology at PNNL. "I'm pleased we'll be able to expose these scientists to the unique capabilities, instrumentation and experts at PNNL while we also learn from their new ideas."
Johnson completed his doctorate in chemistry in July 2009 from Pennsylvania State University. There, he focused on analyzing the use of different types of oxygen in reactions stemming from metal oxide catalysts. At PNNL, Johnson's research will focus on using mass spectrometry as a tool to create new catalytic materials.
Lin has most recently worked as a Humboldt Fellow at the Fritz Haber Institute of the Max Planck Society in Berlin, Germany. While at PNNL, Lin will develop a detailed molecular-level understanding of the reactivity of carbon oxides with different types of surface structures, which should have applications in understanding catalysts.
In 2009, PNNL created the Pacific Northwest Distinguished Post-Doctoral Fellowship to attract outstanding researchers and build the future of scientific leadership for the Laboratory. These distinguished post-doc fellows receive a competitive salary, benefits and relocation expenses, plus potential extra funding for travel and conferences. The application process for the 2010 fellowship has begun. Applications are due no later than January 31st, and a preliminary review of current applicants has already begun.
More information can be found on the program website, http://www.pnl.gov/research/pnwpostdoc.asp. Questions may be referred to firstname.lastname@example.com.
PNNL also hired more than 90 post-docs in the past year. Those positions are separate from the distinguished fellowship program.
Tags: Awards and Honors
Interdisciplinary teams at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory address many of America's most pressing issues in energy, the environment and national security through advances in basic and applied science. Founded in 1965, PNNL employs 4,400 staff and has an annual budget of nearly $1 billion. It is managed by Battelle for the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Science. As the single largest supporter of basic research in the physical sciences in the United States, the Office of Science is working to address some of the most pressing challenges of our time.

Aleister Crowley: Hubbard wrote Dianetics just a few years after his Pasadena escapades, and founded the Church of Scientology in the mid-1950s. His son Nibs has said that the OTO's "black magic" was the "inner core" of Scientology, and Hubbard is also on record calling Crowley a "friend."
by Annalee Newitz
One of the weirdest historical confluences you can imagine took place in Pasadena, California, in the 1940s. There, a darkly handsome young man and chemistry autodidact named Jack Parsons had just made a bundle of money by inventing solid rocket fuel and selling it to the military. He was part of a group of explosion-obsessed researchers at CalTech who founded the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), where recently the Martian Rovers were made. He was also a goddess-obsessed acolyte and generous financial supporter of the infamous Pagan leader, Aleister Crowley.
Parsons used his defense contract money to convert an old mansion into a group house whose residents included other Pagans, artists, scientists, and writers. One of his boarders was a charismatic science fiction author named L. Ron Hubbard, who became Parsons' greatest frenemy, participating in rituals of sex magic with the rocket scientist, sleeping with his girlfriend, and finally absconding with all his money. Here is the true story of how Scientology and JPL were both conceived by men under the sorcerer Crowley's mystical influence.
Like many high-tech entrepreneurs today, Parsons never attended college. He spent most of his teenage years doing backyard experiments with rocket fuel, aided by a childhood friend who later worked with him at CalTech. Parsons' brilliance with chemical compounds — and fearlessness in the face of explosions — helped him make friends at CalTech, where he became a researcher in the 1930s. By the late 1930s, he'd helped found JPL, invented solid rocket fuel, and was well on his way to becoming an international science superstar. He was also deep into a new project: reaching the highest level in Aleister Crowley's mystical organization, the Ordo Templi Orientis (OTO).
In a fascinating account of Parson's life called Sex and Rockets: The Occult World of Jack Parsons, John Carter recounts how Parsons claimed to have summoned Satan when he was 13 years old, in the late 1920s. This experience, which the scientist described as terrifying, was the beginning of a lifelong interest in the occult — an interest that became a fiery passion when he discovered the work of Crowley (pictured). Though both Parsons and Crowley mention Satan in their work, neither was a "Satan worshipper." They were Pagans with a deeply libertarian streak (Crowley's mystical slogan was "do what thou wilt"), who took hallucinogenic drugs and believed in free love long before the hippies discovered did. Crowley had followers all over the world, like Parsons, who corresponded with him, sent him money, and asked for spiritual guidance. Parsons was a Crowley favorite, however, and the young man rocketed through the ranks of the OTO.
By day, Parsons helped to create one of the greatest scientific institutions of our time, JPL, which has created and maintained dozens of space vessels over the past half-century. But by night, he and his housemates drove his neighbors nuts (several filed police reports) by lighting great bonfires in his backyard, and dancing in a state of near-nakedness. They were worshiping Crowley's favorite entities. Parsons, for his part, preferred goddesses.
Sex Magick
Parsons and his young girlfriend Betty — whom he'd been dating since she was 15 — were both smitten immediately by L. Ron Hubbard when the writer moved in with them. A war veteran who told crazy stories and eagerly lapped up Crowley's spiritualism, Hubbard became Parson's great ally in the scientist's quest to incarnate the goddess Babalon on Earth. Babalon would be a bewitching redhead, who would eventually give birth to the Antichrist. In his book about Parsons, Carson describes Hubbard and Parsons's joint rituals in great detail. Since Babalon was a sensual entity, raising her required Parsons to masturbate repeatedly, releasing his seed on a parchment while Hubbard chanted rituals and took notes. Often, Parson's own notes on these rituals make mention of "invoking" with a "wand."
It was magick, yes, but it was also the future founder of Scientology jerking off with the founder of JPL, in order to indirectly spawn the Antichrist. I think we can take this incredibly deranged situation as further evidence that Los Angeles has always been a weird place.
Hubbard wasn't content to watch Parsons invoking the wand, so he began sleeping with Betty. Parsons and Betty had always had an open relationship, so this wasn't particularly shocking to anyone, least of all Parsons. But Betty really fell for Hubbard. The two were inseparable. Luckily, the incarnation of Babalon arrived just in time to soothe any feelings of jealousy Parsons might have had. A red-headed artist named Marjorie Cameron came to visit her friend at Parsons's house, and both Hubbard and Parsons became convinced she was Babalon. Though Cameron wasn't interested particularly in Paganism, she was an adventurous woman who liked the idea of free love. Plus, Parsons was hot. So she happily moved in and started participating in Hubbard and Parson's sex rituals.
Hubbard would chant and invoke the spirits while Parsons and Cameron had sex. The men believed they were summoning spirits and lightning with their incredible potency and sorcery, though Crowley was so disgusted by their antics that he called them "goats" in a letter. Eventually Cameron did become pregnant, but instead of spawning Satan, she decided to have an abortion.
Is There Black Magick in Scientology?
As Cameron's love affair with Parsons petered out, Hubbard's relationship with Betty deepened. So did Hubbard's fascination with the OTO. For those familiar with the basic outlines of Scientology, it will sound quite similar to the OTO. To achieve enlightenment, one ascended through many numerical "steps" on the way, gaining access to more secrets and rituals from Crowley as the apprenticeship went on. Giving money to Crowley was a good way to get more of his secrets, most of which involved achieving mystical power over one's body and the physical world.
Scientology's adherents likewise ascend through many steps on the path to cross the Void and become "clear," which Hubbard promised would make them invulnerable to disease and capable of controlling other people's actions. To achieve "clear," however, Scientologists must give money and enact a number of rituals.
In his new book Going Clear: Scientology, Hollywood, and the Prison of Belief, Lawrence Wright explains that the influence of Crowley and the OTO has long been a controversy within Scientology. Hubbard wrote Dianetics just a few years after his Pasadena escapades, and founded the Church of Scientology in the mid-1950s. His son Nibs has said that the OTO's "black magic" was the "inner core" of Scientology, and Hubbard is also on record calling Crowley a "friend." But Scientologists say there is no relationship between the two spiritual systems.
Still, it's hard to deny that Crowley had a strong influence over Hubbard, and many of the trappings of the OTO's system appear in altered form in Scientology. You might say that Scientology is the science fiction version of the supernatural horror that was the OTO. So the religions may be different genres, but they have a lot in common.
The Final Explosion
Once the war was over, Parsons began struggling with money. He tried to launch some businesses, but they sank. His old friends at CalTech had grown distant, but his new companion Hubbard offered a ray of hope. Hubbard suggested that he and Parsons go into business together selling boats. He'd worked on ships during the war, and was a fine captain; Hubbard and Betty would go to Florida, buy some ships, and sail them back to Los Angeles so the two men could sell them. So Parsons gave Hubbard his last $20 thousand, and saw his best friend and girlfriend off.
It seems that Hubbard never intended to make good on his promise, because as soon as he reached Florida he became unreachable. Weeks dragged by, and Parsons began to get angry. So he flew out to Florida, where Hubbard and Betty had bought a boat and were literally pushing off from port when Parsons arrived. The spurned and broke scientist sued Hubbard, and also wrote that he was working deadly spells on his former friend as well. Eventually, a storm grounded Hubbard and Betty and he was able to reach them. Parsons ended up dropping the charges — likely because Betty threatened to expose her unconventional relationship with him — and the couple never gave Parsons his money back.
In 1952, just two years after Hubbard shot to fame with the publication of Dianetics, Parsons died while handling explosives on his front porch. He was survived by the rockets built at JPL that have sent humans to the Moon, and the probes that took us to Jupiter, Saturn, and out beyond the solar system's envelope. Parsons is also, like his frenemy Hubbard, survived by a snarl of conspiracy theories about his life and death.

Tutorial on Plain Scones
One of the things I love most over here are Cream Teas, and of course when you think of a cream tea you must think of a scone. That delicious light bun thing that closely resembles the baking powder biscuits (not to be confused with a cookie) from back home in appearance, but is nothing like them at all in taste or texture.
I had my first cream tea when my husband and I were on holiday down in Devon. They brought the tea to our table in a lovely porcelain pot on a tray along with some dainty china cups and a plate full of lovely light scones, and bowls of red berry preserves and lucious clotted cream. I was hooked from first bite. I had never tasted anything so lovely in my life. (You don't have to have regular tea. You can get herbal blends also, which is nice. We don't drink regular tea.)
Scones come in many flavours. There's lovely cheese ones, currant ones, plain ones and I've even seen cherry ones. I prefer the plain ones myself, but then, I am a plain kind of gal!
*The Plain Scone*
Makes 6 to 10, depending on how large you cut them
Printable Recipe
These are anything but plain. They have a lovely light texture and a delicious buttery flavour. I'd call these the perfect scone!
8 ounces self raising flour (I like to use organic flour)(Scant 2 cups) (about 230g)
1/4 tsp salt
2 ounces lightly salted butter, quite cold and cut into small bits (1/4 cup) (63g)
1 ounce of soft golden brown sugar (2 1/4 TBS)
4 ounces buttermilk (1/2 cup) (115ml)
4 TBS whole milk
extra flour for dusting, or more milk for brushing on the tops
strawberry jam and clotted cream to serve.
Heat the oven to 220*C/425*F. Measure out the flour and then tip it into a bowl along with the salt.
Drop in the bits of butter. Rub it into the flour using the tips of your fingertips. You want a fairly reasonably fine crumb. Lift it up into the air as you rub so that you get lots of air into the mixture.
Add the sugar and stir it in.
Measure the buttermilk in a small beaker and then add the milk. Mix well to slacken it. Make a well in the middle of the flour mixture and tip in most of the buttermilk mixture, holding some back just in case it's not needed.
Gently work it all together with a fork or a knife, until it forms a soft dough. Add as much of the remaining milk as you think you will need, working in any loose dry bits of the mixture. Try hard not to overwork the dough as this will toughen your scone.
Tip it all out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead 3 or 4 times until smooth. Pat the dough gently out to a 1 inch thickness.
Dip a round fluted cutter into some flour and cut the scones out by giving the cutter a sharp tap directly down onto the dough with the palm of your hand. Don't twist the cutter as you lift it or you will end up with lopsided scones.
Place onto a baking sheet and repeat with the remaining dough, cutting out more scones. Gather the trimmings, pat down lightly and cut more until you have used it all up.
Sift over a light dusting of more flour, or brush lightly with milk, just on the tops. Don't let it run down the sides.
Bake in the heated oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until risen and golden brown.
Remove to a wire rack to cool, uncovered if you want crisp tops, covered loosely if you prefer soft.
Serve with strawberry preserves and a generous dollop of clotted cream.

I like scones but rarely have them. For all your American friends I apologise but I have nevr liked the US version of scones. I prefer them plain but many Queenslanders make pumpkin scones. These are fine with butter only IMHO.
We have a cheats version that uses commercial lemonade but I use soda water. These aare so easy and fail safe.I was taught how to make scones "properly" by my grandmother after I came in from school and present her with well......even I wasn't sure what they were either. All I did was follow the teachers instruction and the whole class was the same because she twisted the cutter! I have always used her recipe and instructions ever since. NEVER twist the cutter when making scones! Plain scones are are the best I think with cream and jam!

5 Things You Didn't Know About The Paparazzi
2- They can earn in the range of $250,000 a year
Paparazzi are so often viewed through a shady prism that it's not widely known that they can rank among the best paid "journalists" in the world. In fact, while most established paparazzi earn a more modest $60,000 to $100,000 annually, quite a number of very successful paparazzi haul in the same income as your average medical specialist or corporate lawyer — about $250,000 a year.This salary doesn't include the "big score" or one-time bonanzas like New York paparazzo Steve Sands' reported $300,000 score from People magazine for pictures of Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin's second child. Also, the market for a picture of Tom Cruise's and Katie Holmes' offspring reportedly reached seven figures. But aspiring photographers should note that, like in any profession, you have to work your way to the top. Unless you know Matt Damon's wife's hairdresser, entry-level positions generally pay about $3,000 per month.
3- Media savvy celebs share schedules with the paparazzi
Paparazzi commonly argue that though celebrities gripe endlessly about getting their pictures snapped every time they pick their noses, those same stars realize they need the paparazzi to ensure that they remain in the public eye and maintain their popularity. Some stars, at least partially, embrace this theory and have made a conscious decision to cultivate a more mutually beneficial relationship with their tabloid "friends."Common conciliatory acts include offers of temporary access or exclusives in exchange for a little privacy, and even celebs voluntarily coming out of homes to provide easier access for the paparazzi on stake-out duty. Some celebs actually work overtime to ensure that the paparazzi follow them around 24/7. Predictably, the talent-starved queen of all tabloid-anointed celebrities, Paris Hilton, has embraced this tactic by notoriously offering the paparazzi her schedule, ensuring a weekly parade of heavy-lidded, Jagermeister-addled, "I'm about to retch in an alleyway" snapshots.
4- Paparazzi have organized "boycotts" of stars
Although they are historically on the wrong end of celebrity tongue-lashings and punches, the paparazzi have occasionally acted in tandem to eschew their usual state of victimhood. Witness the case of George Clooney, a notorious critic, after he blamed the paparazzi for causing Princess Diana's fatal car crash in a 1997 interview. At his next public appearance at the premiere of 1997's The Peacemaker, the entire contingent of pissed-off paparazzi refused to take publicity shots of Clooney and booed him as he signed autographs for fans.Clooney survived his freeze-out to become an even bigger star, but others have suffered long-term damage to their careers due to similar battles. Sharon Stone has had a running feud with the tabloids, and vocally backed a new privacy law aimed at stopping photographers from hounding celebrities. In response, the paparazzi has been ruthless in casting Stone in a poor light, including snapping an incriminating shot of her adopted son sleeping in a parked car — under the chauffeur's supervision — as the star dined with a date.
They'll go James Bond on you for a shot…

Mystery deepens over Tibet activist's disappearance
[Tuesday, September 18, 2007 18:47]
Indian officials remain clueless over Mr CA Kallianpur's sudden disappearance. The 54-year old Tibet Activist and Researcher and the National Coordinator of Friends of Tibet was travelling from Bombay to New Delhi on September 11, 2007 to organise a panel discussion on "India's Foreign Policy on China"
New Delhi, September 18 - The mystery surrounding the disappearance of CA Kallianpur, National Coordinator of Friends of Tibet (FOT) deepens as the officials go clueless. The 54-year old Tibet Activist and Researcher was travelling from Bombay to New Delhi on September 11, 2007 to organise a panel discussion on "India's Foreign Policy on China" at the India International Centre on September 13, 2007 and never reached New Delhi.
Kallianpur's mobile which was traced to Jaipur Circle in Rajasthan was found with Jeetendra, a young boy in Kishenganj village, near Alwar in Rajasthan, who was gifted the handset by his father Kailash Chand who happened to be travelling on the same train on September 11, 2007. The police in Alwar managed to get Kallianpur's phone call record list from Reliance Mobile September 11-13, 2007 and have questioned those who received calls from this mobile number.
While questioning, Kailash Chand admitted that he found the phone lying under a seat in the compartment in which he travelled from 11pm, 11sept till 7am on 12 Sept, when he got down at Mathura Junction. Kailash Chand said he asked co-passengers whom the phone belonged to and for the answer they said, "It might be that of the person who fell down in the train" he was shown the photograph of the missing person, but he said he had not seen him on the train at all and refused any role in the disappearance of the person. Though there is a breakthrough by the Rajasthan police, the police in Bombay are clueless.
According to the Railway officials, there are no cases of any passenger having fallen ill or meeting with an accident at any of the stations between Bombay and Amritsar on Paschim Express route on that day. What is also mysterious is that according to railway officials no person by the name CA Kallianpur had travelled on the train on September 11, 2007 as his name doesn't appear anywhere on the list. Though strangely his mobile phone was found on the same train on September 12, 2007 around at 7am, about 19 hours train journey from Bombay.
Though FOT believes that robbery was the reason behind his disappearance, the organisation does not rule out other possibilities due to the seriousness of the work he is involved with. Meanwhile, on September 14, 2007 one of the FOT campaigners received an email from the Embassy of the People's Republic of China in India informing "Sorry. WE DON'T have anything in this regard yet."
Any information regarding Kallianpur would be appreciated, please call: 9833191592 (Sethu Das), 9971448216 (Tenzin Tsundue), 989184984 (Shibayan Raha),

Ahh, the road trip. A peaceful getaway to the mountains. A jaunt from city to city on business. A drive cross country just for the fun of it. An escape by two lovers for some quiet time. A vacation with family. A road trip with friends to celebrate the holidays.... It's always fun to get away. Right?
Maybe not. Road trips can wreak havoc on every last nerve in your brain. Traveling with friends, family, and/or loved ones can put undue pressure on even the calmest of folks. But throw in a maniacal killer or a begrudged motorist and you're pretty much doomed.
Who hasn't pulled what they thought was an innocent prank and found out later that it meant more to your victim than meets the eye? We've all done stupid things in our past. Hell, some of us might be doing foolish things right now. But when a prank has devastating consequences, it's more than we bargained for and we're ill prepared for the repercussions.
Just as Lewis (Paul Walker) is about to fly home from college for the summer, he chats with Venna (Leelee Sobieski), a crush of his that he is trying to strike up a relationship with. She tells him about her recent break-up and lack of a ride home for summer break, which of course sparks an idea. He sells his airline ticket and buys a piece of crap car, telling her he is driving cross country and will pick her up - no problem at all!
On his way to meet Venna, he gets a call from his mother telling him that his delinquent brother Fuller (Steve Zahn) has been released from prison. When he sidetracks to pick him up from jail, Fuller decides it would be a great idea to hitch that ride home with Lewis and take some more flak from the parents for all the shit he's gotten himself into. Somewhat reluctantly, Lewis agrees.
At a gas station/truck stop, Fuller buys an old CB, much to the chagrin of Lewis. Soon they begin engaging in some harmless banter with a mysterious truck driver known only by his handle: Rusty Nail. Doing his best impression of a sexy female trucker, Lewis jump starts Rusty Nail's libido by hinting at a possible interlude at an upcoming motel stop. As "Candy Cane", Lewis lures the trucker to room 17, one room down from the room of the two brothers. Upon check in to room 18, Lewis and Fuller have a brief run-in with a ridiculously rude businessman, who secures the actual room 17.
The prank goes all wrong when they hear Rusty Nail wake the businessman by knocking on motel room number 17. The brothers hear a nasty argument and attack next door and find out the following morning that the businessman is in the hospital on life support due to wounds from a violent beating.
And so continues the road trip from hell. Once on the highway again, Fuller and Lewis hear Rusty Nail over the airwaves, asking for Candy Cane. The boys fess up to the prank, but somebody isn't taking it so well. When they pick up Venna, things only get worse, and what started out as a joke has them running for their lives from the deranged trucker.
Who hasn't played a stupid joke on someone, not really meaning anything by it? We all have, right? Well this film certainly shows you what can happen when the tables are turned. Lewis and Fuller become the hunted, forced to play along with Rusty Nail and his very warped sense of humor, which only gets worse as the days go on. Even as they try to escape the crazed killer, he keeps ratcheting up the terror, always seeming to be one step ahead of the trio. The silliest of counterplay (having the brothers walk naked into a truck stop and order cheeseburgers) turns into the scariest of retributions when first Venna's friend is kidnapped, then Venna herself becomes victimized, all to get a rise out of the two brothers.
MORE ROAD TRIP HORROR: The much maligned Rest Stop, which I have previously reviewed HERE, is another example of bad shit happening when you hit the road. In this case Nicole is a young woman who is heading off to California with her boyfriend, Jess. They stop off for some quick nookie (witnessed by a creep in a yellow pick-up truck) and then head to the nearest roadside rest to take care of other business.
When Nicole returns to the car, she finds Jess gone. After looking around thoroughly she starts to panic, which is pretty much the correct expression, as the deranged idiot in the yellow pick up truck drives by and throws Jess's cell phone at her and speeds off.
And so begins Nicole's never-ending nightmare as the truck driver keeps coming back to the rest stop to attempt to kill her. The film is certainly no prize (probably why it is a "Mindless Movie Monday" addition), but it's worth mentioning because there is no doubt all of us have stopped off at a less than sanitary rest area at least once in our lives. And we never think about anything bad happening there.... Maybe we should.

The only downside is that being made by novation its tends to all go wrong after a while, mine has been back to the factory once, its would freek out at free will and a ring modulated type noise would engulf all the drum sounds (I also know of 2 friends who have had the same problem), also its sometimes decides it only wants to play 1 ASM sound at one time e.g. kick, snare, toms (gotta love it) my new one has not decided to go mad on me yet but give it time, (I own a basstation and thats had it as well) dont now what the reliability is like on the super nova but have have been warned about the drumstation, by all means by one but just dont put a hammer through it when it goes wrong!
Final Opinion: More portable, sounds good enough. 5/5
808: Bass drum is a little thicker sounding but the bass station emulates about %90 accurately, seems just a little drier than the real 808 Most of the other 808 sounds are dead on, some not as immediate as the real 808 but all are almost prefect it's so close you'd be hard pressed to hear the difference, which is really small. Also the drumstation adds tuning to certain sounds that didn't have tuning on the real 808, for example you can tune the cowbell for some whacked out dub sounds.
909: Even closer to the real thing, since the actual 909 used samples for the hats, cymbals, claps etc. only the bass drum/snare/toms were actually analog. Again the real 909 has a thicker sounding bass drum, but the drumstation seems to emulate the 909 bd almost flawlessly better than the 808 bd emulation IMO. You'll lose a little low-end thump but its so minor you probably won't know which is being used, I progammes the same line on my sequencer and my friends 909 for reference started them up in sync and muted them indepedently for a/bing purposes and the drumstation really does sound exactly like a 909 -- it's uncanny and pretty amazing.
In conclusion: I prefer to use the 808 sounds of my real 808, but the drumstation hits the 808 sounds about 90% accurately which is really good considering it's small size, the 909 sounds are so good you be hard pressed to tell them apart from the real thing. All in all a killer rack and definitely anyone making electronic type music with a need for a hard beat this will suit your needs and best of all for 1/4 the price of buying real 808\909's.. I paid about $800 for my 808 and I've seen 909's fetching $1000-1200 on ebay, you can get everything sans the sequencer in a drum station for lesss than $500, you make the call. Not to mention it's all digital and probably won't ever need the regular servicing of am older analog drum machine..
Get one.. 5 marks!

An invisible war is raging in the Ukraine, security experts have warned, with authorities claiming communications networks have been "targeted" and diplomats' phones attacked.
Authorities confirmed that, in the first significant disruption of technology, phones were targeted this week from inside the Russian-controlled Crimea.
Commentators quickly compared the incidents with "denial of service" attacks which were launched during Russia's conflict with Georgia in 2008 and similar attacks on Estonia's internet in 2007.
The Kremlin denied all knowledge of the incidents. It has yet to comment on the alleged attacks from within the peninsula.
"I confirm that an ... attack is under way on mobile phones of members of the Ukrainian parliament for the second day in a row," the Ukrainian security chief Valentyn Nalyvaichenko told reporters on Tuesday.
The alleged source of the attack on phones was the headquarters of Ukrtelecom, a telecoms company, in Crimea. Mr Nalyvaichenko said equipment that "blocks the phones of deputies" had been installed at the building.
