Last republican on President's team to step down
Updated: January 29, 2013
LaHood says he's proud of the work the Department of Transportation has done, including the Distracted Driving Initiative. He says his team helped "jump-start" the economy with $48 billion in transportation funding.
Longtime friend, Sheriff Mike McCoy, of Peoria County, says it's a loss for Central Illinois. LaHood says he will stay in office until a successor is chosen.

Last fall, the Husband and I were Asia-bound. Shanghai and South Korea to be exact. We brought all that was necessary for a proper trip to Asia: a good camera, scintillating reading material, powerful hand sanitizer, my parents, his parents.
Wait, hold up (sound of record screeching)…both sets of parents? As some of our friends were kind enough to point out: two sets of in-laws does not a vacation make. But it was hard not to be swept away by our parents' enthusiasm at what they pointed out was a potential once in a lifetime experience. So away we went.
Any feelings of initial trepidation vanished immediately as the Husband and I quickly realized what we had embarked upon: a roll-up-your-sleeves-kind of eating tour of China and Korea. Yes, we can definitely do two and a half weeks of this. Two families united by a common love of regional cuisine resulting in a show and tell hour at mealtimes. Coincidentally, our kind of trip.
As the Husband is of Chinese descent (and I of Korean), our first destination was Shanghai. We happily stuffed our faces with noodles, dumplings and all kinds of crazy seafood (future post on this, I promise).
Then it was on to South Korea, for a weeklong bus tour around the country (my parents' favorite mode of touring) and then a few days on foot, walking and eating our way around Seoul.
We stayed in hotels most nights — some ritzy, some not so much. All would agree that our most memorable experience by far though, was our three day stay off the beaten track at a hanok.
A hanok is a traditional Korean house. Hanoks differ according to landscape, climate and even social class. But all hanoks are single story, open up to a central courtyard and share in the characteristic ondol floor (floor based heating system).
Our hanok was centrally situated in Bukchon, Seoul, an area sandwiched between two large royal palaces. This historical and trendy area seemed to be experiencing a surge in hanok renovation and restoration. As this was my first time in Bukchon (and my fourth time to Seoul in about a decade), I was more than pleasantly surprised with this neighborhood. Bukchon was both modern and traditional. Painstakingly restored hanok structures stood next to funky bakeries, interesting coffee shops and cute boutiques. The duality of the neighborhood's hipness and its silent nod to its past was comforting, a feeling I found increasingly rare in a city which obviously developed at lightening speed.
This particularly charming hanok was owned by two young Korean women who I pegged to be in their early thirties. They had spent some time living in Canada and New York, and had returned to Korea to open a guesthouse, which was rich in artistic touches (not to mention a particularly impressive security system).
Upon entering the front gate, there was a little room separated from the main house. This was our room we were told. The Husband and I poked our heads in and saw a thin mattress on the floor, an electric kettle, a nightstand, as well as a beautiful mural on the adjoining wall. I oohed and aahed over the floral motif of the mural, the ornate furniture and the thoughtfully arranged collection of Korean-American literature on the small bookshelf, while the Husband less than enthusiastically noted the absence of a television and the tiny slippers by the door which were supposed to house his size 12 feet. We both immediately felt the heat emanating from the floor.
May I interject at this point to point out that the Husband's body temperature seems to run a little hotter than the average human being. He gets hot very easily. I am the complete opposite and am always a bit cold. While the thought of slumbering peacefully on a heated floor sounded nothing but soothing and relaxing to me, it was quite possibly the Husband's worst nightmare. The bathroom situation also took some getting used to. It was not immediately connected to our room, so that we had to put on slippers (which were adorable by the way if you hadn't noticed), and shlep around the room, outside to a side entrance, where the toilet, sink and shower (all very modern by the way) were enclosed in a different room. While this was very novel and adventurous, schlepping back to the room after a shower in the brisk autumnal breeze with a not too large towel was less than desirable. However we quickly acclimated to our new surroundings, our stay was more than comfortable and left very little to be desired.
Mornings greeted us with a home cooked breakfast served in the common area which had one low dining table and (you guessed it), a heated floor. Presented with the choice of Western (eggs and toast) or Korean style breakfast (rice porridge), we all opted for the Western breakfast (lunch and dinner usually were Korean food so we wanted to mix it up). The six of us sat cross-legged on the floor and dined on eggs, toast, freshly sliced fruit and piping hot coffee and tea, perfectly prepared and served promptly. With no television, newspaper or gargantuan hotel breakfast buffet luring our attention away, we sat and animatedly chatted about our favorite things we had seen, memorable things we had eaten and what we wanted to do our last few days in town.
Fast forward to the evenings, after days filled to the brim with sightseeing, where we would gather around that same table again for an hour or two. Munching on sliced apples purchased from a fruit vendor on the street, we'd sip tea and flip through guidebooks, comfortable in each other's company. Our rooms were too small to escape to and the rice paper walls too thin to give any semblance of privacy. Hence we all gathered in the common room, as I imagined families had done for centuries past. Devoid of the drone of television, we chatted about our day, shared stories, stretched our tired limbs and eventually returned to our separate chambers at the end of the night. Content.
I realized that this was the very thing that made the hanok experience so memorable. Not the hilarious site of the Husband scrunching his large feet into tiny pointed slippers schlepping off to the bathroom. Not the relentless ondol heating system. Not the Jenga-like skills we utilized to compete with our large American suitcases for room in our tiny quarters. Instead the image I will forever have in my mind is the six of us gathered around that small table munching on sliced fruit, swapping stories every night before bed.

When a large public company decides to go privateas Dell Inc. has decided to dothe legal department is juggling an almost overwhelming list of legal issues, according to two former general counsel familiar with such transactions.
But the largest issue in these types of transactions is ensuring that the fiduciary duty to shareholders and others are adequately protected, said Joseph La Barge, former GC and chief compliance officer of the biotech company Tengion Inc.
La Barge, now of counsel with Ballard Spahr in Philadelphia, told CorpCounsel.com Wednesday that protecting that duty is especially significant when the buyout group taking the company private includes the public companys chief executive, as it does at Dell.
Dell announced Monday that it has agreed to be acquired by a group that includes investment firm Silver Lake, along with Michael Dell, the companys founder, chairman, and CEO. The $24 billion deal is expected to close by mid-2014.
Dell general counsel Lawrence Tu declined a request for an interview. In declining, Jess Blackburn, of Dells corporate media department, said, We remain a public company now and wouldnt want to speculate on the environment of a private company.
La Barge, who said he helped handle one go-private transaction, suggested that in a case like Dells, the general counsel would advise setting up a committee of independent directors with their own outside counsel.
And Round Rock, Texas-based Dell said in its announcement that it had done just that.
The special committee was formed last August and retained independent legal advisers Debevoise & Plimpton. It also engaged its own financial advisers and a leading management consulting firm to conduct an independent analysis.
The in-house counsel will be juggling a variety of issues, La Barge noted, from making sure the parties that require access to diligence materials get it, to constructing some Chinese walls so information is shared only with the appropriate parties.
Kelly Howes, the former general counsel of Janus Capital Group, said she sees two major issues for a GC doing a go-private: advising the board and hiring the most qualified outside counsel you can.
Howes, now of counsel with Morrison & Foerster in Denver, said the legal department must ensure that you and your outside counsel are checking every box, looking at any potential exposure to the organization, starting with being comfortable with the price.
The transaction, Howes explained, is a huge logistical challenge.
You are looking at not just a corporate and securities transaction, but issues involving real estate issues and taxes; business and employment contracts; employee benefit plans. There are all these different moving parts that have to come together at the same time.
Howes continued, So you and your board want to have the best possible outside counsel that you can. And if you look at the Dell roster, those are all-stars.
Hogan Lovells is advising Dell on the deal, while Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz is representing Michael Dell, and Simpson, Thacher & Bartlett is serving as Silver Lake's outside counsel.
Howes said she has never done a go-private, but she was part of a Janus team that helped a private company go public. For her, making sure the board has enough quality information that it can make the decisions it needs to make, thats our biggest job.

This trade could mean that the injury to Varejao is worse than first thought and he might not return this year. Having Wallace and Varejao in the lineup at the same time is redundant and Big Ben would probably not play with Big Z, though it is possible on a limited basis.
The more I think about their new roster, the more it scares me. They have so much depth now, it is difficult to figure out who will start and who will come off the bench. Would you start West or Gibson? Czerbiak? Ben or Varejeo? Joe Smith off the bench? He's been one of the Bulls best players this year. Think of how good their half court defense would be on a final possession after a Detroit timeout with: Snow/West/James/Varejao/Wallace.
What would give you that impression? Z is already a scoring threat in the paint just like Sheed was. It would make perfect sense to put them on the floor together.
I agree with that. Z and Ben seem like very complimentary players. This should make both of them better. Since Ben is capable of guarding centers, they can even take out Z when playing against a mobile C. One of the problems with the Bulls was that they were incredibly redundant inside. They had 3 Ben Wallaces and no Rasheed Wallaces. Joe Smith was the closest thing that they had, and Cleveland got him too.
I hear everyone saying how further into the season, Shaq's and Phoenix will see more success. I see the trade as a downgrade for the current season. While folks are being optimistic, I also see Marion as being close to the best defensive player the Suns had. Looking at the top West Coast teams i don't believe they have a chance at a championship. You and your sour grapes.
Cleveland cleaned up on this one. Defiently improved their chances with this deal. What was Chicago thinking? Whats Larry Hughes going to give them? And his contract is not that much cheaper than Bens.
They clear out room for Noah and Thomas to play up front. Hughes only plays the same position as Gordon, who's likely gone from Chicago pretty soon anyway.
I hate school. I miss all the big news. Haven't read the thread yet, but WTF?! I hate rebuidling teams and i hate CHI. I think i'm more mad about Delonte West, and Joe Smith. And seeing Ben be buddy-buddy with LBJ is just going to reawaken my dislike for him that i had gotten over irrational as it may be. bla, stupid trade deadline Ok i read the thread, and i prety much agree with the general consensous. Joe Smith scares me. Delonte West scares me. Wally doesn't. Ben re-energized does a little. Let BOS deal with them. I hope the seedings stick.
I beg to differ...I think that just increased PHX's chances. They had no chance at winning the title with that run and gun ball for 4 qtrs. Now, they have some versatility and no matter what you think of Shaq that's good versatility.
I agree. I think the Suns have a chance now. I think the Cavs showed total desperation today, trading away half of their roster at this point in the season.
Ben will be re-energized in Cleveland. I don't think he ever liked the system in Chi-town and didn't play to his full potential...especially this season. He wont be the monster that patrolled the palace between 02-05, but he will at least give them a tad bit of what that fading Ben we saw in 2006. Don't know if it will make a difference or not but I think he and those other add-ons make the Cavs better than what they were...the question is will we have to play them in the post season, or will some team that matches up better >knocks them off and we avoid that issue
The wild card in this deal Szczerbiak kind of scares me. How many times have you seen a Cavs game and thought how deadly they would be with a decent 3-pt shooter? He is going to get all kinds of open looks out there.
+ Boobie G. Also, Smith is a good shooter. Look at his career stats and see how consistent he is across all categories. Perfect role player for a Lebron team.

White excited for UFC 157 headliner with Rousey-Carmouche, but loves whole card
by Matt Erickson and John Morgan on Feb 19, 2013 at 7:25 pm ET
Unless you've been living under a rock, you probably know that there's an historic fight happening this Saturday.
Heck, you don't even have to be an MMA fan to know about it. In the world of pop culture and 24/7 media, the UFC 157 main event between Ronda Rousey (6-0 MMA, 0-0 UFC) and Liz Carmouche (7-2 MMA, 0-0 UFC) is what's known as a "talker."
Yes, the first women's fight in UFC history has been hyped up for more than three months now. And yes, it's getting a full-on massive promotional push. But UFC President Dana White, who has been one of Rousey's biggest cheerleaders – even after saying for years he didn't see a day that women would fight in the UFC – believes he knows the reason the pay-per-view at Honda Center in Anaheim, Calif., is a big deal when it comes to his women's bantamweight champion.
"The media is following her because she's legit – she's the real deal," White said this past Saturday following the post-event news conference for UFC on FUEL TV 7 in London. "She's a world-class athlete who won an Olympic medal. How do you not respect that? How do you not respect someone who's been training since they were 6 years old and medaled in the Olympics, and has worked as hard as she has to round out her game as a martial artist, too?"
Rousey, a Olympic bronze medal winner in judo at the 2008 games, has one weapon that opponents and fans should see coming a mile away, and that's her armbar. It's how she famously has finished every opponent, all in the first round, both as an amateur and through six wins as a pro. If Carmouche sees the second round on Saturday, she'll already be making history of her own, at least when it comes to Rousey.
But White said he believes Rousey is rounding out her game to include a lot more than just a textbook judo throw and textbook armbar.
"Everybody was talking about her hands two years ago," White said. "Look at her f---ing hands now. I know things you guys don't know about her and what she's doing as far as her hands go. I'd love to see guys go spar with her. She'd knock someone's f---ing head right off, and would love doing it. She is tough, she is mean, and she is f---ing nasty. She's f---iing mean, man. She's a tough chick."
White said that goes for Carmouche, too, not just Rousey – who is a 12-to-1 favorite in the fight. Carmouche is coming off back-to-back stoppage wins under the Invicta banner and knows what it's like to fight for a title, as well.
She lost a title fight to Marloes Coenen nearly two years ago, finally tapping in the fourth round to a triangle choke.
"I've heard some flak about the girls," White said. "But their mitt work is better than half the f---king guys. Their hands are great, they're well-rounded, they represent the sport well, they represent themselves well. I couldn't be happier that I made the decision and I couldn't be happier with this fight."
The women may be headlining, but the rest of the main card features a fairly solid lineup that has the UFC boss stoked, too. A key light heavyweight fight between Dan Henderson (29-8 MMA, 6-2 UFC) and Lyoto Machida (18-3 MMA, 10-3 UFC) serves as the co-main event, while former featherweight champion Urijah Faber (26-6 MMA, 2-2 UFC) returns to fight Ivan Menjivar (25-9 MMA, 4-1 UFC). Plus, Robbie Lawler (19-9 MMA, 4-3 UFC) returns to the promotion to meet Josh Koscheck (17-6 MMA, 15-6 UFC) to open the pay-per-view.
"I'm obviously excited for that (Rousey-Carmouche) fight, but I'm excited for the whole card," White said. "The whole card is a great card."

Around the two Italo-Ethiopian wars, did any Ethiopian leaders side with the Italians?
By "around", I mean anywhere from about 1890 to 1936.
By "leaders", I mean noblemen, military officers, popular leaders, government officials, etc.
Haile Selassie Gugsa (second from right), a military commander and governor of Eastern Tigray, turned coat just a week into the invasion. After the war he was sentenced to death (commuted to life imprisonment and later house arrest.) |

- Monday, May 20, 5:15 AM Directors at Chesapeake Energy (CHK) recruit Anadarko (APC) senior VP of international and deep-water operations Robert Douglas Lawler to succeed Aubrey McClendon as CEO, WSJ says. Lawler, a seasoned industry veteran, will join CHK on June 17 and says he "looks forward to generating value for shareholders in the years ahead." Besides plugging a multi-billion dollar gap between the company's spending and cash flow, Lawler's greatest challenge might be dealing with McClendon, whose contractual well investment rights mean he will likely be a part of the picture at CHK even if he isn't at the helm. 4 Comments [Energy, Top Stories]

Google Flu Trends indicate outbreak could be worst on record
If you ask the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in Atlanta, this year's flu season is looking "moderately severe." That assessment has been reflected in the relatively calm tone of national media coverage in recent weeks.
But wait - if you ask Google Flu Trends, we're in the midst of an outbreak that is shaping up to be the most extensive on record. Never before this week have so many people searched for the terms that Google believes are likely indicators of the influenza virus. If Google's algorithm is accurate, that should translate to a volume of doctor visits that significantly exceeds that of the H1N1 outbreak in October 2009. The media usually loves a good health scare. So why isn't anyone sounding the alarm?
Because, four years after Google Flu Trends launched, the CDC still drives the bulk of national media coverage, suggesting that health reporters aren't fully comfortable putting stock in Internet algorithms that go back only a few years. Yet Google's figures may deserve far more attention than they've been getting.
By the CDC's latest "outpatient surveillance" estimates, roughly 5.6 percent of Americans visiting the doctor are reporting respiratory illnesses, or flu-like symptoms. That's a large number, significantly higher than the national baseline of 2.2 percent or the 2.3 percent peak of last year's mild flu season. But it's not entirely out of the ordinary. The figure approached 6 percent in the moderately severe 2007-2008 season and topped out at 7.7 percent in October 2009 in the midst of the H1N1 pandemic.
But here's the thing: The CDC's current estimates aren't all that current. Because they are based on after-the-fact reports from more than 3,000 health care providers around the country, the numbers can tell us only how many people were suffering from the flu a couple weeks ago. Today's CDC FluView figures, for instance, come from the week of Dec. 23. We won't know until Friday how many people visited the doctor with respiratory symptoms during the week that began on Dec. 30.
That's where Google comes in. In fall 2008, the company's charitable arm, Google.org, unveiled Flu Trends, a site that scans millions of Google searches from around the world to track flu activity in near real time. According to a study published in Nature in February 2009, the system can detect outbreaks nearly two weeks before they show up in the official CDC reports. And the site can tell you on any given day what countries, states and even cities are likely seeing the largest number of cases.
Today, Flu Trends is painting a foreboding picture. On a global scale of green (minimal flu activity) to bright red (intense flu activity), the United States is the reddest country in the world. Zoom in, and the red stretches are almost unbroken across the country's eastern two-thirds. (Hang in there, Connecticut!) Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Houston and Denver are among a slew of cities tagged with the "intense" rating.
But the really ominous chart is the one that shows the trend line for the nation as a whole. It roughly agrees with the CDC that flu activity in December was about in line with the "moderately severe" peak in 2007-2008. But if Google is right, the CDC's snapshot came just as the outbreak was gaining steam. Since mid-December, the trend line has rocketed past that of all previous years and now towers over that of the October 2009 H1N1 pinnacle, suggesting a CDC outpatient surveillance figure of an unprecedented 8.9 percent.
If that turns out to be accurate, the CDC's Michael Jhung says this year's would be the most widespread flu outbreak in decades. Jhung, a medical officer in the CDC's influenza division, said he wouldn't be shocked if that turns out to be the case, since his own models hint that the virus has not yet reached its peak. But he isn't ready to go out on that limb just yet. "Is it going to be a more severe season than last year? I think without question," Jhung said. "Is it going to be a more severe season than a couple years ago, or the previous 10 years? We don't know, and won't know until the end of the season."
Perhaps not. But Google's track record is disconcertingly impressive. In the four years leading up to the Nature paper in 2009, its estimates lined up with the eventual CDC data with amazing accuracy. Continued...
It seems almost certain that the most recent CDC figures are underestimating the outbreak's current magnitude. Don't be surprised to see a flurry of increasingly dire warnings and media reports in the weeks to come. The CDC's Jhung recommends that everyone over the age of 6 who has not yet gotten a flu shot do so now. Even if you've already caught one strain, he said, there are still two others that the vaccine can protect against.

Cellar/Tasting Notes Distinctive and exuberant flavor created to be drunk -- a favorite for celebrating every day. Best selling whiskey still going strong. Powerful combo spicy, smoky malts (Talisker) and lingering lighter grains. Robust qualities.
Cellar/Tasting Notes Glenmorangie 10 Year Old is light-bodied, with notes of stone fruit and citrus interlaced with creamy honey and walnut. Peat and smokiness appear on the finish.
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The inviting bouquet offers aromas of fruitcake, banana nut bread, sweet malt, crispy pork rind, sweet oak, vanilla, red grapes and blackberry jam. Entry is sweet and grainy; at midpalate the taste profile suddenly bursts with red fruit presence and oaky vanilla. Finishes clean as a whistle, chewy..
Cellar/Tasting Notes The new version, at a higher proof and not chill-filtered. That helped especially on the palate with greater texture and more well-defined flavors. But the flavors are essentially the same: nutty, toffee, light molasses, vanilla fudge, with delicate fruit (citrus, dark berries) and a hint of..
Cellar/Tasting Notes Bowmore is a 12 year-old dram originally bottled for travel retail, and boasts a higher proportion of sherry-matured malt in its make-up. A full-bodied dram, it's colour is darker and the whisky itself is sweeter than the standard 12 year-old, with compensating robust smokiness and a hint of brine.
Cellar/Tasting Notes The Sherry finish has a very delicate nose with soft elements of both a fruitiness and dry oakiness. Of course there are notes of sherry wine and traces of honey sweetness. The finish is long, warm, and moderately dry.
Cellar/Tasting Notes Malt whisky of unique character and subtlety, elegant, delicately scented.
Cellar/Tasting Notes Laphroaig is considered one of the most strongly flavored scotches out there. Phenolic notes on the nose and palate. Flavors of driftwood, kelp and iodine, but never hot or rough. Smoky and long finish, where the sweetness of vanilla and fruit come through for balance.
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The aromatic profile is assertive yet welcoming, sweetish yet cereal dry, and oaky yet floral and a touch briny; the quintessential 12-year-old malt bouquet. In the mouth, the integrated flavors come in waves of toasted walnut, dark caramel, toasted marshmallow and barely perceptible seaweed. -..
Cellar/Tasting Notes Cardhu Distillery previously called Cardow must be one of the best located distilleries in Speyside. High on the hills on the north side of the Spey Valley with extensive views to the south, it is also the home of Johnnie Walker, the number one blended Scotch whisky in the world.The malt..

Character Quotes: "Enduring isn't a choice. You breath, you live, you endure. There is no such thing as taking a break. Life just keeps coming at you whether you can take it anymore or not. I endure because there is no other option."
Name: Miromi(Miro) Hyugar
Age: 22
Gender: Female
Represented Element: Water
Physical Appearance: Miromi is 5'5'' and 145 pounds (of which is mostly muscle). She has a tattoo on her shoulder, which is pictured and another one running down her sternum which is always covered up. This tattoo reads, Nirobi which was her mother's name. Her skin is smooth but not flawless and has the occasional scars from minor childhood and occupational accidents but none that stand out. Her black hair is strait and falls just past the shoulders. When it's wet her hair tends to curl up at the ends.
Personality: The scars of her childhood have greatly shaped Miromi's personality. On one hand she tends to be rugged, easily going and mentally composed. She works well under pressure and while she doesn't like to lead, she is a good person to fall back on. On the other hand, Miromi's mental scars have left her a little more than just cynical. She is so serious that she is rarely found smiling and even when that does happen it won't reach her eyes. In addition, she doesn't tend to trust people with her secrets, her past, or her life.
Brief History: From the outside everything looked fine. No one knew it, no one foresaw it, and no one could have even guessed at it but those who had to endure it. Fifteen years ago a girl came home from school and shut the door behind her. She called out to her mother but her mother didn't answer. The girl went to the kitchen to get herself a snack. She called out to her mother but her mother didn't answer. The girl saw her mother's body lifeless on the kitchen floor, her chest ripped and oozing from chin to the bottom of her rib cage. She called out to her mother but her mother didn't answer.
At the age of seven, Miromi was tried for the murder of her mother. Evidence stacked up against her but eventually the true culprit was found. Miromi's father, who had left them five years earlier had returned for unknown reasons and murdered her mother and then tried to frame his own daughter.
With her father locked away and her mother dead she moved in with her maternal uncle, a power plant worker. Until she was an adult, Miromi continued to live with him and had a knack for tinkering with machines. However the locals, who knew about her families past, continued to gossip and harass her so eventual she moved out. She traveled around Euthesae's countryside for a year before the Entity appeared. Since then she has been busy trying to maintain various infrastructure as civilization begins to unravel.
Other: Miromi is strait although often tries to be indifferent. She is also terribly afraid she will take after her father. Due to her work with her uncle she is mechanically inclined.

Name: Zenix DeCalle
Age: 26
Height: 5'8''
Weight: 130lbs
Clan and/or Race: Nobel Human, Rouge, Grey Warden, (Previously part of the Crows)
Personality: Zenix overall is very aloof. While she tries to work with her fellow Wardens she is unlikely to get to know strangers. Nevertheless, she is an excellent actress. "Whatever it takes" Esma used to tell her. Zenix has been cast in such roles as the seductress, the loyal wife, the naïve damsel in distress, the villain, the victim, ect.
Mannerisms: You will often find Zenix in the back of the group, closest to the exit, and eyeing her surroundings. The last year of being a Grey Warden has done nothing to override the training of the Crows. She needs her space and hates people being by her back. Perhaps, she is still waiting for the assassins to find her.
Origin story:
From what she's been told she was the oldest daughter of a noble family based in Amaranthine. They say she was somehow caught by slavers and sold on the black market before her family could pay ransom. That's when one of them first saw her. She was young but thanks to her bloodline unusually beautiful for a human. She was only five when she was sold and shipped to the far north. Her family was informed she had died in some accident and they eventually stopped looking for her. Well, that's what the Warden's tell her anyways. Zenix feels that they often like to make up stories to get people to do what they want. She doesn't remember those years at all. All she knows is that her mother is Esma, her family, the Antivan Crows.
Zenix spent the next ten years of her life training under Esma, one of the top female assassins, and the following ten years living up to her true potential. Known as 'The Shadow Strangler', Zenix preferred not to get her hands dirty when well-placed poison could do the trick. She could charm the pants off most and pick the best of locks. One thing that always concerned her superiors, however, is that she refused to steal. 'Morals,' they would say, 'will lead to her a bad end' and morals did.
The job that came should have been expected. She had been grating on some nerves for a while and was beginning to outlive a lot of the competition. Late that night, unarmed, Zenix snuck into Esma's room to warn the woman. Through the years, Esma had grown to think of Zenix as her daughter. Expecting the day would come, and knowing Zenix would not be able to kill her (thus forfeiting her life) Esma formed a plan years ago. That night, the two of them along with Esma's Grey Warden lover, Luckan stole away to Ferelden. While Esma was too old and frail to undergo the ritual, Zenix did so in order to gain asylum.

History: Zenix was once the guardian of a kingdom to the far north. Her kingdom was peaceful until the day that the King's silver medallion went missing. The kingdom's legends stated that the land would remain in peace, harvests would never fail, and diseases would not plague the people so long as the medallion stayed within the boundaries of the kingdom. Zenix tried to track down the person that stole the medallion, but her journey took years and the mysterious thief kept eluding her. Eventually, the trail ran dry and she returned to her kingdom only to find that it had been utterly destroyed. Zenix has continued to wander alone of the years, picking up odd jobs and keeping an ever watchful eye out for her thief. Recently, a young boy names Hunter has come under her charge.

Varsha (Novice) (see description in Patron Deity- Spells)
Hermanta (Apprentice) (see description in Patron Deity- Spells)
(Shishira is not known)
Aura of Righteousness(Untrained) The uncanny ability to continue battle even when hope is lost.
Taking Aim(Novice) Through practice and concentration, Epi is mastering the bow. When this spell is active she shoots faster and further than most with decent accuracy.
Tracking and Trapping (from her job description)
Plant Lore (from her village training)
Alignment: Neutral Good
The patron deity of Epi, and a few of her surrounding villages is Aphelion. He is in charge of changing the seasons. His siblings include the twin goddesses of time and fate, Clepsydra and Fari. Like them, he is known to be impartial to the everyday affairs of mortals. Aphelions alignment is neutral.
Followers associate him with gold and moonstone which represent the celestial bodies that also change with time and seasons. His patron colors are green and brown.
Previous Occupation: Village Hunter
So what are you going to do? Xerus asked, his beady eyes focusing on her.
Im not sure, Epi replied as she gazed out over the forest. She reached up and picked a ripe walnut from the tree branches above and handed it to the Ratatosk, perched on her shoulder.
Xerus took the nut with his tiny claws but held off eating it. The others, theyre too tame. I suspect it comes from generations of living out in the middle of nowhere, being secluded from the rest of the world. Not you though, youve got that sparkle. Xerus skillfully stripped of the shell of his treat, allowing the nymph time to think. My point is that you have two choices, Epi. These arent mere rumors anymore. A war is coming. The world is going to burn- your world, Epi.
I know, she said again, letting out a long sigh, but how can I bear to leave this place? Im not like you, Xerus, the only place Ive ever lived is this village. I dont even know whats out there. Besides, is it really a good idea to leave my village behind? Unprotected?
The choice is yours, Epi. Go and meet the battle head-on or wait here for it to come to you but if you choose to wait, I am certain your village is guaranteed to be destroyed.
That was three years ago and no one from their village has seen them since. They are believed to be dead.

Name: Xerus
Race: Ratatoskr
Age: (Unknown- Appears to be adult squirrel sized)
Height: Body 20'', Tail 8''
Weight: 1.37 lbs
Weapons/Armor: None, but he does have the uncanny ability to 'disappear' in the heat of battle.
Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
Patron Deity: None
Magic Level: Expert (Although you could never tell from looking at him)
Whispers of the Word (Expert level) Through time and place Xerus can pick up on the events of the world. The more people affected by the event or the closer the location, the easier it is for him to find. Even with all his power and concentration however some things remain vague. This is a very hard spell to cast and takes him time, energy, and immense concentration.
Disappearing Act (Expert level) This spell allows Xerus to disappear (literally) into a different dimension for a short periods of time. While it is very useful, he must anchor himself to some object to help him find his way back. He disappears and reappears in the same state. (So if he is bound and disappears, he will reappears bound).
Aura of the Blessed (Intermediate)Those very close to him seem to experience a decent amount of luck.
Xerus has the senses of a normal squirrel. He has a wide range of vision, powerful teeth, acute hearing, and a highly developed sense of smell.
Occupation: Gossip mongerer, Advisor
Biography: Xerus is a gather of information. He has spent his life traveling from town to town delivering news and messages. Recently, he has been seen in the company of an elf. No one knows why he has decided to adopt her as his traveling companion but he is often found perched on her shoulder, spouting off information and advice.

RWD 5.7L Limited (Natl)
Starting at $51,040 | Starting at 13 MPG City - 18 MPG Highway
Provided by NADAguides.com
Unchanged for 2012, the Toyota Sequoia is a seven passenger full-size SUV offered in RWD and 4WD drivetrains. Three different engines are available; a standard 4.6-liter V8 that produces 310 hp/327 lb-ft of torque, optional 5.7-liter V8 that produces 381 hp/401 lb-ft of torque and a FlexFuel variant of the upgraded V8 engine. All engines are paired to the same 6-speed automatic transmission that enables the Sequoia to achieve an EPA estimated 14 mpg city and 19 mpg highway. Features include voice-activated touch-screen DVD navigation system, backup camera, 14-speaker sound system, rear-seat DVD entertainment system, 4-disc CD changer. Safety is comprised of vehicle stability control (VSC), traction control (TRAC), anti-lock brake system (ABS), electronic brake-force distribution (EBD), advanced airbags, and smart stop technology (SST). The Sequoia is backed by a 3-year/36,000-mile warranty.
The Toyota Sequoia appeals to those who are in need of a serious hauler, whether it be for a trailer or for people. The Sequoia delivers just as much capability with nearly as much style and luxury features as many high-end luxury-brand SUVs, but at a lower price. The Sequoia's interior is spacious and comfortable and surprisingly flexible for people and cargo. Base SR5 models are an especially strong value, starting at $41,000, while fully loaded Platinum models sticker for less than $62,000.
The 2012 Sequoia is virtually unchanged from the 2011 model.

Richmond County is getting in the Christmas spirit, and two live nativity scenes are popping up for spectators to visit.
One nativity scene is being constructed and will be displayed at Mount Olive Baptist Church at 596 E. Washington St. Ext. in Rockingham.
This weekend, starting on Friday at 6 p.m., the live nativity will be open for viewers, but the show isn't free.
Although there is no admission, "everyone is asked to bring at least one non-perishable food item to donate to Our Daily Bread food ministry in Rockingham," said Pastor Bryan Blackwell. "There will be seven dramatized scenes from the life of Christ, including the nativity, with costumed actors and live animals. Enjoy the drive through from the comfort of your car as you traverse our 40-acre property. Everyone is invited to stay afterwards for refreshments in our multipurpose building."
Our Daily Bread is located on Randolph Street in Rockingham, across from the First United Methodist Church. Between 30 and 40 volunteers help run the pantry each week, during the three days Our Daily Bread is open.
Our Daily Bread Director Debbie Rohleder is thrilled about the food drive effort by the church.
"Mt. Olive has been putting on the nativity scene for years," said Rohleder. "I hope people come out and see how much work the church puts into this. We hope this will be an event that people will want to come out and support because they're supporting the church and those in need."
Rohleder is in her eighth year at Our Daily Bread.
Down the road in Hamlet, another live nativity scene will have animals as well.
First Baptist Church of Hamlet, beside the Piggly Wiggly on Hamlet Avenue, will present a live nativity with a live camel, sheep and a donkey, Friday at 5:30 p.m. and 7 p.m. Free hot chocolate and snacks will be served after the first nativity.

Im not sure if what Im going to ask belongs here, if it doesnt please let me know where should I put it.
Im looking for comments/suggestions on a problem I had and the solution I implemented.
The application I work on has a 3 tier architecture:
Eclipse RCP Client -- RMI --> Service Layer --> Dao Layer --> Hibernate --> DB
What was really annoying me was the depth level of the object graph I was fetching from the DB. For example, in some scenario I needed a customer with all its relations and in other scenario I just needed its name and address. Being a RMI jump away hibernates lazy loading didnt work, and I didnt want to provide lots of method in the service interface to control this parameter, but neither did I want to send unnecessary big objects through the network.
So what I did is to pass an Initializer from the client to the service layer to initialize the needed relations after the objects were retrieved from the DB, but before the transaction was commited. This extra parameter is passed as a Thread Local(client) - RemoteInvocation - Thread Local(server) attribute to avoid polluting the business interface.
I have left some details out to keep this post readable, so please ask if theres anything missing.
Any comments will be greatly appreciated.

The hybrid market for telecom operators
With the growth in the pay-TV market, TV has become an essential ingredient for telecom operators' triple play offers. This has in turn led to the growth in demand for hybrid services (IP for VOD and DVB broadcast for live TV) for regions where IP bandwidth is insufficient for live TV services.
According to ABI Research, the global market for hybrid set-top boxes continues to grow with a 9% CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate between 2011 and 2016), to reach 150 million hybrid set-top-boxes shipped worldwide in 2016.
Telecom operator needs
Telecom operators are seeking to extend their TV footprint by providing secured premium pay-TV services (including high-definition) to areas that are not eligible for IPTV due to lower IP bandwidths. This will enable them to increase their revenues and customer loyalty.
One of the telecom operator's main concerns is to optimise its return-on-investment on services such as premium content by selling to a wider audience. In addition, with the rapid growth in demand for high-definition TV (HDTV), telecom operators are keen to avoid heavy investment in bandwidth and infrastructure by providing HDTV through an existing broadcast network with a high quality of service (QOS) and quality of experience (QOE).
Piracy has for a long time now been a fact of life in the broadcast environment, which means that telecom operators need to select state of the art security solutions in order to gain access to and protect their premium content over a DVB network (DTH or DTT).

So one of the many things I've been doing here in chilly-but-sunny Montreal is acting as promo-girl and photographer for Movement Travel, a nightlife electronic tour company started by my friends Zeina and Michael (pictured at left).
You can see some of the pics taken in the gallery below. These pictures are from Feb 19th, one of our largest tours so far! The company was officially launched late last year (yes, during the winter!) and began collaborating with Montreal Central, providing their guests with weekly Thursday tours. We are now working Saturday nights with the largest hostel in the city – Hosteling International Montreal, with plans to expand to other hotels and guest services in the city. We also are looking at the possibility of daytime themed tours. So, why start a company in the wintertime that depends on tourists for business? Well, Zeina and Michael explained that it is the best time to hone your business and figure out exactly what your clients want and need. By the time summer comes around, we'll be ready to handle very large groups, and will have the routine down-pat. I know I'm excited about the summer!

Q: My husband is threatening to stop his four blood pressure medications. The diuretic has him getting up at night to urinate. Some of the others have had a negative impact on our sex life (loss of desire plus erectile dysfunction). He is fighting depression for the first time. His doctor says the drugs can cause these side effects, but he has no alternatives.
A: Your husband should not have to suffer side effects such as depression or impotence to control his high blood pressure. Beta blockers (atenolol, propranolol, etc.) have been linked to dizziness, depression, fatigue and sexual dysfunction. A 2009 review in the Journal of Internal Medicine suggests such drugs should not be first-line hypertension treatments.
There are blood pressure medications that are less likely to cause sexual problems or depression. Your husband may also try losing weight; exercising; following a special DASH diet; drinking beet, pomegranate and grape juice; and avoiding non-steroidal anti-inflammatory pain relievers. He should not stop his blood pressure drugs suddenly. That could jeopardize his health.

Simplifying Data Migrations through Novell Storage Manager
Data migrations from one network storage device to another are normally huge IT projects. And with terabytes of data to move, the process can be tedious and disruptive to users. But it's the post-migration work in a migration of this sort that really makes the process burdensome. Buck Gashler explains how Novell Storage Manager can greatly alleviate the data migration burden by providing the means of automating data migration as well as retaining all rights, metadata, and timestamps.

Monday was a great day for the children depending on the benevolence of others for their Christmas presents as $1,500 was added to The Empty Stocking Fund, enough to check 30 children off of Santa's long list.
All six of the gifts will be matched with a $25 donation that will be added to the fund's total on the last day.
The largest gifts, each for $500, came from Speech Pathology & Audiology Services and First Baptist Church Pleasant Hill. There is a photo of owner Jennifer Stephenson and her staff at Speech Pathology & Audiology Services appearing with today's article.
The fund's total is now $3,822.
There are 1,781 who have been deemed eligible for help from the fund, which is administered by the Department of Social Services. Vouchers for $50 that can be redeemed at Kmart and Rose's will be distributed to families for each child until the money runs out.
We encourage churches, schools, businesses and civic groups to contribute to the fund. With donations of $500 or more, The Robesonian will publish a photograph if that is requested. We can take the photograph or you can provide one.
Donations can be made in person at our office at 2175 N. Roberts Ave. or mailed to us at P.O Box 1028, Lumberton, N.C., 28359. Just make the check payable to The Empty Stocking Fund.
Each day The Robesonian will list the money donated and the contributors. If you wish to remain anonymous, you can do so by being listed as "A friend" or "Anonymous." Donations can also be made in honor or memory of loved ones.
