Who will win is anyone's guess as these delightful poseable figures go brick head to brick head. Featuring fantastic custom LEGO minifig capes, these custom BrickHeadz designed by Kale Frost are simply brilliant! The scene pits two of DC's most popular superheroes against each other in a friendly game, as these characters battle it out across the table. Judging by the pieces left on the Chess board, it looks like Superman is losing pieces faster than a speeding bullet.

76046 Heroes of Justice: Sky High Battle [Review]
The divisive Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is nearly upon us, and it brings a new wave of LEGO Superhero sets. You can see the full collection in LEGO's Spring Catalog. Today we're reviewing 76046 Heroes of Justice: Sky High Battle. (Yes, that's really its name.) It will retail for $59.99 USD and includes 517 pieces. Those pieces build a Batwing and Lex Luthor's helicoptor, and you'll get five minifigs: Lex Luthor, Lois Lane, Wonder Woman, Superman, and Batman.
Superman's The Bottle City of Kandor
I am going to be honest, here: I didn't ever read the comics, nor have I followed a terrible amount of the Superman movies. I can, however, appreciate a gorgeous LEGO creation even if I didn't recognize the reference.
I'll let the builder, Ken Robichaud, do the explaining:
Once the capital city of Krypton, it and its inhabitants were shrunk and preserved from the planets eventual destruction by the villainous Brainiac.
Kept safe in Superman's Fortress of Solitude after its liberation from Brainiac's ship, it became part of the Last Son of Krypton's collection of unique and precious items and lifeforms from across the universe.
I'd recommend checking out his other comic book builds, of which there are just too many great ones to choose from! You can find all of them here.

New LEGO Lord of the Rings sets out + free shipping & Jor-El minifig [News]
Russell Crowe was on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon promoting Man of Steel a couple nights ago, and Jimmy brought out some of the recent Jor-El toys depicting Russell Crowe in the movie role. Russell Crowe said that his son's favorite toy in the whole world is the LEGO minifig, and he's very happy to have a minifig version of his dad now.
Of course, the Jor-El minifig doesn't actually come in any sets, but you can get it for free. The LEGO Shop's June promotion is a free Jor-El minifig for orders over $75 or £50. LEGO is also introducing free shipping "every day" on all orders over $75/£50.
But first, all of the summer 2013 LEGO Lord of the Rings sets are out on both the LEGO Shop website and Amazon.com (links below go to Amazon, where buying anything goes to support TBB; scroll to the bottom of the post if you want to get them from the LEGO Shop, with the Jor-El minifig).
79006 The Council of Elrond includes Elrond, Arwen, Frodo, and Gimli, with 243 pieces for $30.
79007 Battle at the Black Gate includes Aragorn, Gandalf the White (previously only available as Gandalf the Grey), the Mouth of Sauron, two orcs, an eagle, and 656 pieces for $60.
The big set from this batch of new LEGO Lord of the Rings sets is LEGO LOTR 79008 Pirate Ship Ambush with Aragorn, Legolas, Gimli, the King of the Dead, two Dead Men of Dunharrow, a Corsair pirate, and two orcs. For $100, you get 756 pieces.
Finally, LEGO LOTR 79005 The Wizard Battle includes Gandalf the Grey and Saruman for $13 — a nice little set for two such major characters.
UPDATE: Presumably to make room for all the new Lord of the Rings sets (in their enormous warehouses, ha!), Amazon.com has discounted a number of sets from The Hobbit as well:
- 20% off 79003 An Unexpected Gathering (My review: Best. LEGO set. OF ALL TIIIMMMEEE!!!)
- 24% off 79010 The Goblin King Battle (Josh's review)
- 22% off 9473 The Mines of Moria
- 13% off 9474 The Battle of Helm's Deep
(Watch to make sure you're not getting ripped off when the prices change, or when the sales start going to third party sellers on the same page, for a much higher price.)
With apologies for the visual repetition and a reminder that clicking through from TBB goes to support the site, here are the Jor-El links:

76003 Superman: Battle of Smallville [Review]
Since I'm a sucker for Superman, I've been really looking forward to 76003 Superman: Battle of Smallville ($49.99 USD / $59.99 CDN), available now form the LEGO Shop and for pre-order on Amazon.com.
This is the biggest set in the line of licensed sets from Man of Steel, the new Superman movie due out in June.
The 418-piece set features a military jeep with missile launchers and the "Black Zero" drop ship, a Kryptonian fighter ship. There a 5 minifigs included: Superman, Colonel Hardy, General Zod, Faora and Tor-An. At that price point, the set is fairly reasonable, given the part count.
The Build
The set comes with 5 polybags of parts, 2 instruction books, stickers and a comic. The first part of the build is the military jeep. It's simple but nicely designed, employing clever SNOT (Studs Not On Top) techniques. The jeep comes equipped with a pair of flick-fire missiles for its play action. Flick fires are never that interesting in my opinion. The first set of figures are Superman, sporting torso and leg prints based on the movie, and Colonel Hardy, who sports a military-style torso print that might be of interest to military enthusiasts.
The second part of the build is the Black Zero Drop Ship, not to be confused with the Black Zero, which is a gigantic ship in the movie. The minfigures here are particularly noteworthy as they contain a number of new molds. Zod and Faora each have their own styles of body armor, as well as new helmet pieces. Faora appears to have a new hair mold as well. And finally, there is a new blaster weapon.
One particularly noteworthy element is the dark grey bubble canopy. While it is not a new element, the color is new, and should lend itself to some creative uses. Building the dropship is straightforward enough; it only took about 15 minutes to do it. The finished ship is definitely swooshable, and it comes with two spring-loaded missile launchers for its play action. While I'm sure the set was designed to reflect the movie's look, the end result is largely colorless — it's mostly dark grey with a few tiny green accents. I somehow get the sense that the designer's hands are tied on this one, given the source material.
The Verdict
The set is a fair value. If you are a fan of the movie, or a fan of Superman, then you would probably appreciate the set. The set is not a standout in terms of the color design. The predominantly grey palette is a little dull. But my kids, as I suspect with most kids, don't care about design details. They've been playing with the set non-stop ever since we finished building it.
Superman's Fortress of Solitude in LEGO by Chris Melby
There are some structures you'd think just wouldn't translate well into LEGO, and Superman's frigid Fortress of Solitude, with its towering icicles seems like it's one of those things. But then a talented individual, in this case Chris Melby, comes along and builds a jaw-dropping version in LEGO. This cathedral of ice is simply gorgeous. I particularly love that Chris laid it out in the shape of the iconic Superman diamond.
Egos Collide
Zane Houston has done a rather hilarious Super Heroes video for a contest on FBTB.net. I could watch this over and over…I especially like when the Hulk starts whooping Superman's behind :-D
I also like Zane's camera rig that he made for the video shoot :D
Superman Mosaic
Dave Ware (BrickWares) just posted this absolutely awesome Superman mosaic. All I can say is WOW!
…and I have to be honest, when I first saw the thumbnail pop up in my flickr contact feed this morning I didn't click on it because I really didn't think it was LEGO. Boy am I glad I clicked on it now!
Scrolling LEGO TV brings minifig Superman to life
Rod Gillies built this great TV to showcase his new LEGO Superman minifig. The TV cabinet is lovely, and the background includes excellent details like little puffy clouds and microscale, forced-perspective buildings.
But it gets even better. The background behind Superman scrolls!
2012 LEGO Super Heroes DC Comics sets out now [News]
2012 Batman and Superman sets are out a couple weeks early from LEGO Shop online. The new sets include 6864 The Batmobile and the Two-Face Chase, which goes for $50 and includes five minifigs.
So far, the Man of Steel is only available in 6862 Superman vs. Power Armor Lex, which also includes Lex Luthor and Wonder Woman.
(And no, I haven't forgotten about our giveaway of the SDCC 2011 exclusive minifigs. It's just taken forever to scrub the comment data so I can properly — and fairly — randomize the entries. Apologies for the delay, especially now that you can buy your own Batman, but the person who wins him will still be getting the minifig on a card that was exclusive to Comic-Con, so hope you can forgive me…)
Remember, free shipping is now available for orders of $49, with guaranteed delivery by Christmas on all orders placed before December 18.
Lego gets DC Comics superhero license [News]
Variety is now reporting that Lego has announced a broad license for DC Comics. What's more, it appears that they're giving away some promotional Batman and Green Lantern figures at San Diego Comic Con this weekend.
Warner Bros. has expanded its relationship with Lego, granting the toymaker access to DC Entertainment's complete library of comicbook characters and stories to launch DC Universe "Super Heroes" as figures and playsets.
The multi-year licensing deal, made through Warner Bros. Consumer Products, will start rolling out the new line in January, starting with 13 characters, including Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman and villains the Joker, Bane, Harley Quinn and Lex Luthor.
The first toys will be shown off at the Lego booth at Comic-Con Intl. in San Diego, where 3,000 exclusive Batman and Green Lantern minifigures will be distributed to launch a promo that runs August-December, enabling fans to create and submit videos, photos or illustrations of the characters to win trips to Legoland and Warner Bros. Studios.
WB and Lego had already been producing toys and videogames around the Batman franchise, and will launch a new set of playthings around next summer's "The Dark Knight Rises" through the Lego Batman collection. The "Lego Batman: The Videogame," published by WB Bros. Interactive Entertainment, has sold more than 12 million units since 2008."This partnership gives builders a chance to recreate the characters, vehicles and worlds of some of the most iconic super heroes, so they can relive the action and even customize it, a proven and winning formula in Lego construction," said Jill Wilfert, VP, licensing and entertainment for the Lego Group.
Kneel before Zod!
Chris Doyle has built an incredible rendition of the phantom zone, from the Superman movies. This is truly creepy.

Romney further impedes hurricane response, calls GOP hurricane governors
President Romney coordinating Hurricane Response (for GOP states only)
We had reported earlier that Mitt Romney, in an attempt to use Hurricane Sandy for his own political benefit, was "impeding" hurricane relief efforts.
It seems, sadly, that Romney didn't learn his lesson.
He's now in a full-blown Hurricane Sandy recovery mode, coordinating relief efforts with GOP governors, even though it's not entirely clear what Romney knows about disaster relief, or how a presidential candidate who's not in office can even offer any assistant at all, other than some of millions as a donation to the Red Cross. Romney has found that disaster "opportunity" he was looking for throughout the entire campaign.
Mitt Romney continues to interfere with Hurricane Sandy response in an effort to use Sandy as an "opportunity" to bolster his presidential bona fides.
.@andreamsaul: Gov. Romney has also been in touch with [VA] Governors Bob McDonnell and Chris Christie about storm preparation
Democratic Hurricane Victims Needs Not Apply
Interesting that Mitt Romney appears to only be calling Republican governors. Oh that's right, Mitt Romney doesn't think of the 47% who live in the other half of the country. But in all seriousness, if this weren't a political stunt meant to make an "opportunity" out of national disaster, Mitt Romney wouldn't be calling states based on the political affiliation of the governor – he'd be calling the worst hit states.
Though, it's not entirely clear what candidate Romney knows about storm preparation, and how exactly candidate Romney can help those states. In fact, Romney's calls are taking up the time of governors who should be focusing on saving lives. Romney knows that. So why is he calling them? What did they discuss? Did the campaign come up?
Romney Says Feds Shouldn't Coordinate Disaster Relief. But Fed Candidates? Okay!
Not to mention, it's interesting that Mitt Romney wants to close down FEMA, because he doesn't think the federal government does a good job at disaster relief – it's "immoral" to spend money on disaster relief when we're running a deficit, Romney said – yet he thinks that he, as a federal candidate, can be quite helpful at disaster relief.
So, the federal government doesn't matter for disaster relief, but federal candidates do.
How long until we see Romney in a FEMA jacket offering to help? Can a Paul Ryan visit to another closed soup kitchen be far off? (Followed by the inevitable attempt by Romney voters to destroy the hurricane relief center that Romney and Ryan visit.)
Here's the latest shot of Hurricane Sandy from moments ago:

1. Q: How to distinguish Human Hair Wigs and Synthetic Wigs?
A:Compare the price
That is very obvious: with the same style and length, Human hair wigs are much more expensive than synthetic ones. Therefore, If your human hair wig is relatively cheap, you may need to consider whether it's blended with synthetic fiber or the hair that collected to make this wig is not of a healthy quality.
Identify the material
Burn/Singe the hair and smell: Choose a small strand of hair and burn it. If the hair is 100% human hair, it smells like a barbecue; if not, it smells like plastic.Check the ashes after burning the hair. If the hair is 100% human hair, you can twist the ashes to turn it into powder; if not, the ashes will remain in tact.
2. Q: How can I choose the color and the size?
A:To help you shop for the right color online it's just as easy as in a store, please refer to our hair color chart after you have found the style you like.
As for the cap size, we all know that measuring your head size is an important task to endeavor prior to ordering a wig. Please carefully measure your head size and choose the proper cap size following our cap size guide.
3. Q: Can I curl or straighten my wig?
A:Of course you can if you purchase our human hair wigs for the ultimate styling versatility - you can curl or straighten them as you would your own hair. However, just like our own hair, the less heat you use the better.
Synthetic wigs, on the other hand, can be irreparably damaged if you try to curl or straighten the hair with heated tools, except occasionally with some heat friendly wigs.
4. Q: How do I apply a wig?
A:To perfectly apply a wig is not easy.
First, you need to pin your hair up.
Then, use a wig cap on any type of hair length to hold it all in place and to ensure a smooth fit. Even if you are bald, we recommend you still use a wig cap - it will help with friction and ensure the wig stays on.
Next, put the wig on your head from front to back. There are two tabs on each front/side of the wig. Position them right in front of your ears.
Don't worry if it doesn't look perfect right away. Go ahead and style/brush it into place the way you'd like it to look.
5. Q: How should I care for my wigs?
A:Looking after your human hair wigs is very important in order to increase the life of them. You may like to click the link: http://www.westchesterlibraries.org/?wigs=how-to-care/
6. Q: Does your wigs have baby hairs?
A:Yes. Both our human hair wigs and synthetic wigs have baby hairs on the front and at the back of the wigs.
7. Q: Will I look natural with the human hair wig?
A:Yes, you will look very natural with our lace wigs because firstly the hair is hand-tied to the lace which will make the hair look exactly like growing from your head.Secondly, the hairline of our human hair wigs is very natural as if they are your own scalp.

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Talking Canucks, Leafs & Wild
by Paul on 04/16/06 at 11:43 AM ET
Comments (0)
The debate is raging in Vancouver. Someone must be sacrificed to the hockey gods to appease them after the Canucks missed the playoffs. Who is it to be? Coach Marc Crawford has been on shaky ground for a long time, but general manager Dave Nonis ignored the advice of his confidantes and kept him on. He may not feel comfortable doing so for much longer. Nonis himself probably is safe for a while. He inherited Crawford and likely will be given a chance to make amends with his own man behind the bench. Even though Bryan McCabe is the highest-profile Group 3 (unrestricted) free agent on the Maple Leafs, the team will have to make some difficult decisions regarding other players in the same boat. Or they might have their decisions made for them if the player goes elsewhere while the Leafs dither. Still on the subject of contracts, which is, unfortunately, a way of life in the new artificially regulated NHL, there's an intriguing situation brewing in Minnesota. The Wild, a team which understandably doesn't want to spend much money because it may have an unsold seat some day, must try to come to terms with Marian Gaborik.read on

As we shed our coats and dress for warmer weather, it's important to consider how we are protecting our skin from harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays and the potential for skin cancer. In a recent interview, Kelly B. Cha, M.D., Ph.D., a UMHS dermatologist and skin cancer expert, talks about how to best detect and prevent skin cancer.
mCancerPartner: What is the difference between melanoma and other skin cancers, like basal cell and squamous cell carcinoma?
Dr. Cha: Basal cell carcinoma (BCC), squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), and melanoma each arise from different cell types in the top layer of the skin. BCC and SCC are far more common than melanoma, and also less dangerous. Each year, over 2 million people in the U.S. are diagnosed with BCC and SCC. When detected and treated early, nearly all BCCs and SCCs can be cured. In comparison, approximately 139,000 people will be newly diagnosed this year with melanoma – the most deadly form of skin cancer. Unfortunately, melanoma has a greater tendency to aggressively spread (metastasize) beyond the skin, to lymph nodes and internal organs. Thankfully, however, the vast majority of melanomas are caught early and cured.
mCancerPartner: What do skin cancers look like?
Dr. Cha: BCC and SCC are usually raised pink areas that are scaly, shiny, crusted, or non-healing. These are most common on the sun-exposed surfaces of your body. Melanoma is typically brown, black, or multicolored. Melanoma usually starts as a flat spot, and in some cases stays that way for months or years, but eventually it will turn into a bump. The most common areas for melanoma are also the sun-exposed surfaces, but you can develop melanoma anywhere at all on the skin surface, so don't neglect a worrisome spot even if it's somewhere unusual like the bottom of your foot. In general, skin cancer grows with time. There are many completely benign skin spots that can resemble skin cancer, but if you have any question, the best approach is to get your skin checked by a professional.
mCancerPartner: What can you do to catch skin cancer early?
Dr. Cha: Keep an eye out for changes in your skin: new or changing spots (these may be flat or raised), or a spot that itches, bleeds, or won't heal. Make a habit of regularly checking your entire skin surface from head to toe, perhaps once a month. You don't have to memorize each spot, just get familiar with the types of spots you have so that you'll spot an "ugly duckling" (a spot that doesn't fit in with the rest) more easily. Once you get used to it, a thorough exam will take only a few minutes. To help guide your self-exam, check out the UM Comprehensive Cancer Center's Skin Cancer Screening Card: Be Smart About Your Skin, Know Your ABCDs and the UMSkinCheck App. Be sure to have anything you think is suspicious checked out by your dermatologist, and consider having an annual skin check completed by your dermatologist or primary physician.
mCancerPartner: How much do factors like sun exposure, ethnicity, and age affect an individual's risk of skin cancer?
Dr. Cha: A person's lifetime exposure to UV rays – from sunburns, tanning booths, and chronic sun exposure – is a major risk factor for all types of skin cancer. Those with fair skin are at higher risk because they have less pigment in their skin to protect them from damaging ultraviolet rays. However, it is really important for those with more darkly pigmented skin to know the signs of skin cancer and check their skin too, because although at lower risk, they are not immune. In terms of age, those with older skin have accumulated more damage from the sun, and BCC and SCC typically affect individuals who are middle-aged or older. Melanoma is more "equal-opportunity." We see cases throughout life, including in the late teens or early 20s, especially in young women who have used indoor tanning.
mCancerPartner: What measures can we take to protect ourselves, especially as we approach the sunnier summer season?
Dr. Cha: Since UV exposure increases your risk for all skin cancers, it's helpful to put something between the sun and your skin. Choose what works best for you. For some, that's a roof! But even those of us who worry about skin cancer professionally still enjoy being outdoors. Take advantage of shade, an umbrella at the pool or beach, a hat (broad-rimmed is better than a baseball cap to protect your ears and neck), sunglasses, keeping your shirt on while mowing, and so on. If you know your skin will be exposed, I recommend broad-spectrum SPF 30 sunscreen. Don't be stingy with applying the sunscreen – you have to use a generous layer to achieve the SPF on the label. Reapply the sunscreen every couple of hours if you'll be outside for a long time, and more often if you're swimming or sweating. Nowadays it even comes in convenient forms like sprays if you don't like applying it with your hands. Finally, please avoid tanning booths. Although they may help you avoid a painful sunburn, they do not protect you from the damage the ultraviolet rays are doing to your skin, and they increase the risk of melanoma, not to mention the risk that you will start looking much older than your age. It's better to use a spray tan or bronzing lotion to achieve the color you wish, and then use sunscreen to protect yourself from the ultraviolet rays.
mCancerPartner: I've had so many sunburns in my life. What difference does it make to be careful in the sun now?
Dr. Cha: It's true that previous sunburns (or indoor tanning booths/beds) increase the risk that you'll get skin cancer someday. You can't completely erase the damage they may have done to your skin. However, if you are more careful now, you're doing your skin a big favor. You will be less likely to encounter the "final straw" that turns damaged skin cells into cancerous ones. Don't beat yourself up for what's in the past. Just focus on keeping your skin healthy now, and check your skin regularly so that if cancer turns up, you can catch it early when it's far easier to treat and cure.

Nice read! I ecspecially enjoyed the article on SNMP Enumeration and Hacking. It's surprising how many devices are out there in use that offer SNMP. Though not many people give it much thought or even know what SNMP is for that matter. Your article gives a nice example of how informative such devices can be. There are still a vast amount of people out there using WAP11 and similiar devices. Of which are ever so poplular due to the "Dirty Power Hack".
Anyways, good article and the references on:
Are also very informative.
PS - I'm surprised that there hasn't been any tutorials on the forum that demonstrate SNMP insecurities

Very nice read! Thanks for sharing.
Shows a great example of social engineering and how it can render some of the most restrictive networks extremely vulnerable.
Netcat, WOW is all I can say. Extremely versatile tool and a very good example of that.
The SNMP article is great, I think understanding it top to bottom could prove to be a very useful to any pentester. Lots of information to be gained from SNMP.
Am I reading the dates correctly? latest article on 2/11/2004?
Is muts (mati) posting things like this more recently that we might be able to view? I tried to check out his blog but it was down.
That hak.5 show has quite a few interesting topics. Its over an hour long but still cool to watch.

Chris Cornell Pearl Jam Friendship
A lot of the bands that came out of the Seattle "grunge" scene were close. But, perhaps the closest connection was between Soundgarden's Chris Cornell and the members of Pearl Jam.
Prior to Pearl Jam, guitarist Stone Gossard and bassist Jeff Ament were members of a band called Mother Love Bone. Their singer, Andrew Wood, was Chris Cornell's roommate. Wood died of a drug overdose on March 19, 1990.
After Wood's death, Cornell wrote a few songs about his friend. He shared the songs with Gossard and Ament who were in the middle of starting their new band, Pearl Jam. The trio recorded with Soundgarden (and future Pearl Jam) drummer Matt Cameron along with Pearl Jam guitarist Mike McCready. Eddie Vedder contributed vocals to Hunger Strike shortly after joining Pearl Jam.
The grunge supergroup released one album with the name "Temple of the Dog."
On Monday night, Cornell will kick off "Pearl Jam Week" on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. He will perform Footsteps with The Avett Brothers.
Watch Cornell discuss his relationship with Pearl Jam and the significance of Footsteps.

Why do you need to wear a sports bra for exercise?
The answer is simple...
...you need a supportive sports bra because your breasts contain no muscle.
So when you jump and run your breasts bounce up and down.
This bouncing causes damage.
And over time your bust will start to sag!
How does good support help?
- Sports bras work by strapping your breasts tightly to your chest. So when you move, your breasts move with you.
- To work properly your sports bra needs to cover your breasts completely - forget about glamor!
- If you're not sure on size- don't guess. Get your bra professionally fitted.
- Choose a bra made from comfortable and absorbent material- ideally cotton.
- And make sure the underband is firm around your body, so the bra doesn't ride up your back.
- Then do the 'jump test' to make sure your bra minimises bounce!
For martial arts you need to make sure your bra is free from underwires. Underwires are potentially dangerous in contact sports.
Also, because you do lots of running and jumping in your training, go for high impact. (Low impact will not give you enough support.)
If you find your dobok is a bit revealing choose a crop-top style bra.
I have always been a fan of the Shock Absorber range. So when then new one came out I bought 3!
It's not glamorous but it stands up to hours of punishment - including hapkido throws and grappling. For me it's worth the hefty price tag.
Just to let you know... in the larger sizes (I come into this bracket!) there are 2 fastening hooks which take a bit of getting used to.
Here's more about taekwondo chest protectors and chest guards to protect you during heavy contact.

It's a nightmare scenario for the committed Left-winger. You finally find someone you can imagine settling down with and, miraculously, they like you too. Things seem rosy. Then you discover their widely differing views on taxation. Suddenly all the attraction is gone and it's back to lonely nights-in, reading the Communist Manifesto.
But now there's hope for lovelorn Lefties looking to find a chap to be the Ed Balls to their Yvette Cooper. At the Labour Party conference leaflets are being handed out advertising matchmaking website leftwingdating.co.uk. It's "dedicated to uniting all singles passionate about creating a better world". The leaflet shows a picture of a blonde woman and a handsome man who can only be described as a silver fox. Such is her allegiance to the cause that she is wearing red, and they are toasting their new-found love with that popular Left-wing drink, champagne. One endorsement on the red banner across the site reads "I have found my soulmate on Left-Wing Dating. It definitely gets my vote!"
If you are unsure about how to make the first move there is a list of "key dates", including TUC demos and the Friends of the Earth conference. Some 13 million people are signed up — that's more than the eight million who voted Labour at the last general election.
There's a lot of variety, from Independent readers to those who read the Sunday People. Maybe there's even a chance that the man listed as "Jonathan36" could in fact be Labour's most eligible MP Chuka Umunna, hiding behind a pseudonym. He reads the Guardian and Observer and lists himself as centre-Left. Phwoar. Would a copy of Ed Balls's party conference speech, priced at £2, be an appropriate first-date gift?

Just a few things I noticed on fast review:
- dirname $0 fails if script is in directory with spaces (like "/home/user/My Scripts")
- "set the script path correctly" ??? - there is NO need to cd into that dir in your usage case, none at all!
- testing if package is installed with "which" is VERY VERY bad (see dpkg(1) man)
- hardcoding "/home/shred/..." is bad as well

There could be more but this script is not worth more of my time.

Fedora uses the very powerful yum package manager. While yum's syntax is slightly different to apt-get, it should be fairly simple to convert the script so it works with yum.

Open a terminal and type

yum --help

so you can be sure what the syntax for yum to update, install and remove packages. Once you know, simply replace apt-get lines with their corresponding yum commands.

Note that all I am saying here makes sense as long as you are using GNOME Fedora. If you are on KDE, changing the script will be more complicated, as you will need to convert all Zenity commands to KDialog format.

Anyways, give it a go and let me know how it went. If you can't make sense of it, let me know and I will try to create a similar script for Fedora myself.

Good Luck!

PD: If Unity is your problem, no need to move to Fedora. Give Linux Mint a try, they already confirmed they will not transition to Unity. Mint is almost identical to Ubuntu, maybe even easier to use, and my script will work on it out of the box!Chema Martínhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-4551341941797780401.post-82799592182994166632010-11-28T16:42:17.291-08:002010-11-28T16:42:17.291-08:00Chema, I need a script like this for Fedora.

A new California law that cuts off Cal Grants to colleges whose students default on federal loans at high rates will produce less than half of the previously expected budget savings – thanks to a data mix-up by the U.S. Department of Education.
An analysis of the new, corrected data released April 21 by the department shows the state will save an estimated $8 million, rather than the previously expected $19 million savings, said analyst Judy Heiman of the nonpartisan Legislative Analyst's Office.
The new rule signed into law by Gov. Jerry Brown on March 24 aimed to save money while also penalizing colleges that get a large amount of tax dollars for student aid and have low graduation and job placement rates.
Under the policy, colleges with more than 40 percent of undergraduates taking out federal loans and at least 24.6 percent of borrowers defaulting on federal loans within three years of beginning repayment cannot accept new Cal Grants from students in the 2011-12 academic year. Cal Grant recipients returning to these schools will see their scholarships reduced by 20 percent.
The law focused on the three-year draft default rates published by the U.S. Department of Education in February. Using those numbers, the California Student Aid Commission put out a list [PDF] of 94 affected colleges, most of which were for-profit career colleges such as Everest College and ITT Technical Institute.
But the Department of Education revised its figures last month, saying it had inadvertently included borrowers who defaulted on their loans about three months past the three-year window. The mistake had accidentally amplified the rates by including too many borrowers in the calculation.
As a result, about 21 of the 94 colleges on the Cal Grant cutoff list appear to now be eligible to continue accepting the scholarships, according to a California Watch analysis of data from the California Student Aid Commission and the U.S. Department of Education.
For example, the erroneous data would have kept students at Fremont College in Cerritos from being able to apply for new Cal Grants as of Fall 2011. But the corrected information shows 22.54 percent of borrowers defaulted within three years – that's below the cutoff, meaning the college will avoid the penalty.
California Student Aid Commission spokeswoman Louise Shroder declined to comment on the number of colleges affected or the change in estimated savings, saying the commission is still reworking the final list of ineligible colleges and is in discussions with lawmakers.
The Department of Education released the three-year rates to colleges so they could plan for future changes in the way the government holds high-default institutions accountable.
Under current law, the department looks at the number of student borrowers who default within two years, not three. Colleges with high default rates risk losing access to federal loan programs. But under the Higher Education Opportunity Act, the government will begin looking at the rate for students who default within three years – and will start sanctioning colleges based on these rates in 2014.
Unlike official two-year default rates, the three-year rates are less thoroughly vetted – and don't take into account challenges or appeals from colleges.
For-profit college representatives have criticized California lawmakers for using the rates.
"Why would the state use information, originally put out by the federal Department of Education in a press release as an informational item (not a report) on three-year default rates, and recently disavowed by the department, to set groundbreaking educational policy in California?" Robert Johnson, executive director of the California Association of Private Postsecondary Schools, wrote in a May 2 Sacramento Bee editorial.
But Debbie Cochrane, program director for the Institute for College Access and Success, said the three-year rates give a more accurate picture of loan defaults – in part because it takes many months of missed payments to default on a loan.
"The figures don't get as vetted in these trial rates as they do for the official rates," she said. "In general, the three-year rates are a more complete measure of student defaults."

I've touched upon this before, but I'd like to bring it up again because I believe it's beneficial to me, but I could be wrong and therefore it could be a stumbling block. Perhaps I described my experience incorrectly, I don't know.
On occassion, when I meditate, eyes closed, or open, I try a technique wherein I don't focus on the breath - I turn my awareness to my actual mind. So I'm sitting there simply becoming aware of my mind, and when I do this, I find the mind chatter drops significantly.
When I shift my awareness to my breath my mind drifts more, and I find difficulty locating the breath. But as said, when I shift my awareness to my actual mind and simply observe it, I experience a much quieter mind. I read something about this somewhere, and I remember the narrative explaining it like a parent watching an unruly child, when the child knows it is being observed, it behaves.
What do you think, is this a known technique, is it recommended?

The Friedman Factor
Stan Friedman is the face of ufology and the UFO phenomenon itself.
And this has not been a good thing, although we love the guy.
Mr. Friedman has kept the Roswell debacle alive for 30 years now and his defense of MJ-12 has been and continues to be another thorn in the side of serious UFO researchers.
Media worships Friedman, because he's articulate and visibly knowledgeable, even though UFO insiders know that Stan Friedman's views are fraught with wheat and chaff and he has failed to separate them in a meaningful way.
And keeping Roswell on the UFO front burner, along with the bogus raft of MJ-12 documents has had the most deleterious effect on UFO investigation and sensible media coverage than any other aspects of the UFO mystery.
Mr. Friedman has a professorial demeanor, and this has given him cachet with media and many UFO mavens.
But he has been and is wrong, about Roswell, and MJ-12. He also has been an avid researcher, but only to bolster or confirm his views and beliefs; he isn't an objective truth-seeker, although his pursuit of the UFO truth has been seriously maintained – just wrong-headed.
Stan Friedman – not by anything he has done directly himself – has pulled the spotlight and media or scientific scrutiny away from other "ufologists" who are and have been more rational and more objective about the UFO conundrum: Clark, Randall, Vallee, Aldrich, to name a few.
Stan Friedman has made UFOs his career and source of living, and that is no lame feat. Others would have liked to capitalize on the phenomenon as much as he has (Richard Hall for one) but they don't have the pull with media that Friedman has, and Stan is not to be faulted for that.
He's been a willing partner in the media charade about UFOs, giving media and the scientific community a seemingly coherent and sane view about the elusive phenomenon.
But his influence and sway has been the worst thing that could have happened to ufology. It locked UFOs into a stasis of semi-serious study of things that have nothing to do with the real phenomenon.
And Stan's hypothesis of a "cosmic Watergate" – while a great sound byte that media adores – has created a backlash among scientists and politicos who eschew conspiracy theories at their very premise.
Media created Stan Friedman, and media continues to use him for their own purposes. That's not his fault, but his complicity, to maintain a livelihood, has not been good for ufology, or those damnable UFOs either.

New Need Some Advice
Alright so heres whats up. I just started gojuryu about 6 months ago, and im looking to improve my speed and strength overall. I have a trainer at the gym thats been showing me some workouts, but there more bulk building then fighting routines. What are the name of some workouts fighters use to train. Im just planning on giving the list to my trainer and having him teach me them. Im also looking to improve my uppercutting and hooking if anyone has any tips.
In general do plymetric excersises and excercises with light weight resistance like small hand weights or bands. Do body weight excercises such as push ups, pull ups, dips, rings are great and medicine ball excercises. You dont want to build bulk muscle you want lean muscle, fast twitch muscle. I know next to nothing about boxing so yea, but your "trainer" should know more about training techniques if you want to improve your speed
Check out this Guy Ross's website he was a boxer and has many good excercises for fighters.
RossTraining - Bridging The Gap Between Ordinary and Extraordinary
that ross training site is pretty cool. how does everyone feel about mixing in some cardio with weightlifting for a fighter ?

Used Car Dealership Inspired By Boutique Retailing
Step Motors aims to offer a shopping experience rivaling new car dealers.
Step Motors of Miki City, Japan saw an opportunity to change the perception of customers' experience at a used car lot. The company was motivated to prove that older cars, if presented in the right way could be just as desirable as new ones and potential customers wouldn't have to feel as though they were making a compromise in the choice.
Their concept, Step Motors Selection operates more like a curated retail store and specializes in selling carefully selected cars from brands all over the world. The site of the store is a former major car manufacturer's showroom which sat vacant. Osaka-based Process5 Design created the concept for the exterior architecture in interior renovation.
Particularly compelling is the interior designed to be warm and comfortable. The open interior forgoes the traditional stuffy sales offices for casual seating on grass-hued carpeting. Artfully presented bicycles and surf boards hang on the walls are a nod to lifestyle and things typically hanging in a home garage. Simple large scale graphics give the space a friendly voice.
Customer amenities are well considered, there's an indoor/outdoor lounge and some of the nicest bathrooms you're likely to see at a used car lot.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
Re: Selling a boat in Florida
FL. has been getting really aggressive about going after the last known owners of abandoned boats causing some real pain for honest sellers, sometimes many years after the sale. The FL. DMV form for notice of sale for cars boats etc. can be downloaded at dubya dubya dubya.flhsmv.gov/dmv/forms/BTR/82050.pdf seems to be a simple fill it out & send it in item but I would get it notarized and be aware they may still go after you if the buyer does not title it, from the fine print at the bottom of the form " OWNERSHIP STATUS FOR THE ABOVE DESCRIBED MOTOR VEHICLE, MOBILE HOME, OFF-HIGHWAY VEHICLE OR VESSEL
WILL NOT CHANGE UNTIL THE PURCHASER APPLIES FOR AND IS ISSUED A CERTIFICATE OF TITLE." so it's best if you are in FL. to go to the DMV WITH the buyer & see the titling process through. Idiot hassle but far better than a multi thousand dollar derelict vessel removal bill a few years down the road IMO.
Re: Selling a boat in Florida
Once again, thanks for the info....the boat is not a documented vessel, just registered...today will be my last day with internet for a while...Long Island Breeze has had great internet...hopefully when i arrive back in florida i will be able to find a new owner for the great mysterious so I can begin my search for a morgan OI...thanks again
Re: Selling a boat in Florida
You can SELL the boat anywhere you please, any way you please. If the buyer wants to register it in Florida--he'll have to come up with whatever papers the florida dmv wants, to prove he bought it legally.
Apparently you have access to a computer, so you can check the requirements for your type of boat directly online with the florida dmv web site.
Keeping a copy of the bill of sale--with some ID from the buyer--is a very good idea, unless the boat is so old there is no HIN and no other way it can be traced back to you.
Re: Selling a boat in Florida
I agree. Having sold and bought a few boats it makes most everything a lot easier if you get it all notarized in the beginning so that you don't have to do it in the future taking up more of both of your time. My only boat I bought which was documented had all the paperwork done for me so all I had to do was sign. Not sure if yours is as that might change things as denverdon said.
Also, you might want to keep a copy of the bill of sale. If the boat ever becomes abandoned you want proof it isn't yours so you aren't fined. It also could help if you live in a state that collects property taxes on boats as you can't show that it was sold to another.
Re: Selling a boat in Florida
thanks guys, this is the info i was looking for...i figured it would be the buyers responsibility, but why would you want to put someone in that situation...especially after they just bought your boat?
Re: Selling a boat in Florida
As the seller, it is not legally your problem. It becomes the buyers problem when he has to register the boat.
Of course, a nice person (and it sounds like you are) would want to help the buyer to smooth out any problems related to this. To that end, you want to provide them with a bill of sale, which they can then use to get a Florida title issued. Only the vessel and trailer are subject to sales tax, so if the bill of sale itemizes separate costs for various items, it might save the buyer some money.
Having said that, if the boat is federally documented, then it is exempt from titling in Florida.
Official details here... http://www.flhsmv.gov/dmv/faqboat.html#6
|I've had to deal with this a few times and went through it in Florida. Talk to the group doing titles but generally they realize that it is coming from a state with no titles and will ask for a notarized bill of sale . If it has a trailer make sure to do them independently. Things might have changed in ten years but that's all the office wanted from me in Florida.
Selling a boat in Florida
If wanting to sell a boat in Florida (a title state) when the boat is registered in Delaware (a non-title state) with only a bill of sale, what issues could arise? Is such a thing possible?

Environmental and Resource Economics: A Canadian Retrospective (with Brian Copeland)
prepared for the Canadian Journal of Economics
M. Scott Taylor is the Canada Research Chair in International, Energy and Environmental Economics at the University of Calgary, Alberta. He is also a Research Associate at the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) in both the International Trade and Investment, and Energy and Environmental Economics working groups and a fellow of the Beijer Institute of Ecological Economics. In addition, he is a CESifo associate and a research professor at the Ifo Institute, Germany. In 2014, Scott Taylor has been named fellow to the Royal Society of Canada (RSC), the highest honour that can be attained by scholars, artists and scientists in Canada.
Taylor is currently an Associate Editor of the Journal of International Economics. Previously, he was a Co-Editor (1999-2000) and a member of Editorial Council of the Journal of Environmental Economics and Management (2000-2005), and served on the Editorial Boards of the American Economic Review (1999-2005) and the Journal of Economic Literature (2006-2010). Prior to his current position, Taylor was a Full Professor in the Department of Economics at the University of Wisconsin-Madison (1998-2004), and an Assistant, Associate, and Full Professor in the Department of Economics at the University of British Columbia (1992-1998). He has also been a Visiting Scholar in the Princeton Department of Economics (1991, 2003), and a Killam Postdoctoral Fellow at the Sauder Business School at the University of British Columbia (1991). From 1995 to 1998 he was a Scholar in the Economic Growth Program of the Canadian Institute for Advanced Research. In 2004, Professor Taylor's book International Trade and the Environment: Theory and Evidence (joint with Brian Copeland) won the Doug Purvis Prize for its outstanding contribution to Canadian Economic Policy. In 2010, he was awarded an Honorary Doctorate by the University of Basel, Switzerland for his pioneering work on trade, the environment, and renewable resources.
Professor Taylor's research focuses on the interaction of international markets, economic growth, and environmental outcomes. His most influential works examine how the level of pollution concentrations in major cities is affected by changes in industrial production brought about by international trade and/or economic growth. Other important work connects the health of biological resources such as fish and forest stocks to the pressures brought about by globalization. He has investigated the role natural resource collapses have played in the rise and fall of prehistoric societies, how growth and trade jointly determine environmental outcomes, and how access to international markets affects research, development, and long run growth. A marked feature of his research is the use of novel methods allowing him to confront testable hypothesis with empirical evidence.
Professor Taylor's publications have appeared in the American Economic Review, Quarterly Journal of Economics, Review of Economic Studies, International Economic Review, Journal of International Economics, Journal of Environmental Economics and Management, Canadian Journal of Economics, and Resource and Energy Economics.

Busted? Get Ready for a Strip Search
Police and prison officials can strip search suspects after they're arrested regardless of the offense, the Supreme Court ruled on Monday.
- Divided court gives law enforcement option of strip searching anyone who passes through jailhouse
- Lower court rulings mixed, tended to ban strip searches without specific cause
- American Bar Association filed brief against searches, to no avail
Invasion of Privacy
If you plan on being one of the 13 to 14 million people who will get arrested this year, best to take a shower and put on clean underwear first. In a 5-4 ruling, the Supreme Court decided that anyone arrested and admitted to jail can be strip searched, even if police have no reason to suspect they might be carrying anything illegal or dangerous.
"Courts must defer to the judgment of correctional officials unless the record contains substantial evidence showing their policies are an unnecessary or unjustified response to problems of jail security," Justice Anthony Kennedy wrote in an opinion for the majority.
The court's block of four liberal justices argued to the contrary. "A strip search that involves a stranger peering without consent at a naked individual, and in particular at the most private portions of that person's body, is a serious invasion of privacy," Justice Stephen Breyer wrote in the dissenting opinion, noting that invasion of personal rights "is very serious and lacks need or justification — at least as to the category of minor offenses at issue."
The ruling doesn't give jail officials carte blanche to touch or invade the bodies of people entering the system, but they can ask that arrestees manipulate and move body parts so the officials can get a better look.
What Fourth Amendment?
People arrested in drug and weapons offenses, especially, are usually searched, and for good reason — it's generally a bad idea to introduce drugs and weapons into a jail. Furthermore, people can be charged for whatever extra contraband they might have secreted about their persons.
However, strip searching suspects who are arrested for offenses totally unrelated to anything dangerous– white collar crime, unpaid fines, back child support– is more controversial, with questions raised about whether it violates a person's Fourth Amendment right to privacy. Appeals courts nationwide had differed on whether the consideration of jailhouse safety outweighs a person's right to not stand naked for inspection. But no more, say the supremes.
"Every detainee who will be admitted to the general population may be required to undergo a close visual inspection while undressed," Kennedy wrote, noting that searches could be useful in preventing (pubic?) lice outbreaks in jails, and for detecting tattoos or other gang symbols.
Stripped for Violation of Leash Law
Among the arrestable offenses that prompted strip searches and previously landed in front of lower courts:
- Failure to pay child support
- Driving without a license
- Walking a dog in violation of a local leash law
The case the Supreme Court specifically ruled on came about after Albert Florence was pulled over for speeding in 2005 in New Jersey. Florence was arrested after a warrant turned up for unpaid fines (which was incorrect– he had paid the fines) and he was strip searched at two different jails. "It made me feel less than a man," Florence said of the ordeal.
The ruling comes as a surprise for some attorneys. "I understand the practical parts of it, but it is a little disconcerting," says Marsh Halberg, a criminal defense attorney in Minneapolis. "They searched a passenger in a car for an unpaid fine that turned out to be paid? And not once but twice, and all for a mistake? I would be a little angry."
"It's pretty shocking violation," Halberg says. "They're not talking about physical contact, but they are talking about physical inspection. They can make someone pick up their genitals, squat down, do things that are extremely personal."
Common Sense Application
The ruling probably doesn't extend to people who are arrested but aren't placed in the general prison population, the justices suggested, although "general population" could be interpreted to mean something as small as a two-person holding cell in a local county jail. And certain expectations of privacy still exist– police can't strip search suspects in full view of the public, for example, unless they have a very good reason. "There will hopefully be common sense application by law enforcement if they choose to do it," Halberg says.
One ray of hope for rogue dog-walkers who want to keep their clothes on, is that in some cases state laws and constitutions could extend greater protections to suspects under arrest without suspicion of contraband. "Although someone might not have a federal claim, they might still have a claim under state protections. All is not lost in that sense for defense lawyers," Halberg says, while noting that some states might shift their policies to be consistent with the federal ruling.
A lot of lawyers aren't happy– In a supporting brief, the American Bar Association argued that unfettered strip searches would fly in the face of international human rights standards. Arrestees should not "be subject to the grave intrusion of a strip search on admission to a detention facility unless there is individualized, reasonable suspicion of possession of contraband," the brief contends.
But there you have it. Arrests for failure to use a turn signal, or riding a bicycle without a bell, as Justice Breyer brought up? Strip search. Driving with a noisy muffler? Strip search. False arrest for fines you already paid? Better start taking your clothes off now.

Making a massive return to the West Coast, a smattering of famous females showed up at LAX International Airport on Tuesday (May 5).
"Come and Get It" songstress Selena Gomez carried her MacBook Pro and listened to Beats headphones as she scurried out of the terminal, hiding behind a pair of sunglasses.
Gearing up for a transcontinental flight, Lady Gaga caught a plane at LAX International Airport on Sunday afternoon (May 3).
The gorgeous pop singer wore black oversized Chanel sunglasses as she stepped out of her chauffeured car, sporting a beautiful black dress with a thigh-high slit, and scurried into the terminal.
She certainly knows how to dress to impress and on Sunday (March 22) Lady Gaga had all eyes on her at the Geffen Playhouse Gala in Los Angeles.
Mother Monster was in the house to honor her good friends Elton John and David Furnish, who received an award for their contribution to the theater industry.
She's always up for an impromptu photo shoot, and Lady Gaga teamed up with Karl Lagerfeld at Coco Chanel's Parisian apartment for the March 27th issue of The Hollywood Reporter.
Wherever she goes she attracts quite a crowd, and Lady Gaga had a security issue while out and about in Paris, France this week.
The "Just Dance" songstress exited her hotel during Paris Fashion Week when an overzealous fan got a little too close and wound up in what some news outlets are calling a "chokehold" courtesy of one of Mother Monster's beefy bodyguards.
Indulging her inner fashionista, Lady Gaga showed up on the streets of Paris on Thursday afternoon (March 5) for all the Paris Fashion Week festivities.
Mother Monster kept things relatively tame in a black sweater with large gold buttons and a white skirt, teamed with a pair of strappy black heels and black sunglasses.
Giving new meaning to the term "chilling out," Lady Gaga and her fiancé Taylor Kinney participated in the 2015 Polar Plunge in Chicago on Sunday (March 1).
The "Just Dance" singer and her soon-to-be husband jumped into a 30-degree Lake Michigan along with a slew of swimmers to raise money for the Special Olympics and prove their toughness.
The next season of "American Horror Story" officially has a new member: Lady Gaga!
As her first starring role on television, the pop star will appear in the fifth season of the hit FX series, which is slated to return in October. While her character has not yet been revealed, Ryan Murphy, the show's creator, has said that major clues were left in the fourth season about the upcoming installment.
