YAWNNN…. celebrities congratulating other celebrities. Do we really need any more of that superficial nonsense? Well, don't blame those who call us shallow. They are spot on! but I am digressing, that is a society issue…but we're certainly not helping!

So he hasn't attended ANYTHING LGBT in the past year, someone else outed him, and they're giving him an award? I'm sorry, but no, he doesn't deserve this. There are far more important people working on our rights in court right now.
For years, Cooper reported on LGBT issues from inside his glass closet, thus giving the impression of gay shame or cowardice on his part. Dragged out of that posh closet, he fled to Europe on the day his coming out notice was blogged; a coward's way of avoiding the media. There are many brave men and women who are out and have been fighting for equal rights for the LGBT community. Those are the people who deserve recognition. Shame on GLAAD for their plans to honor someone not deserving of any honor.

Libyan Islamists destroy 15th century shrine, library
August 25, 2012 - 16:11 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - Conservative Islamists blew up the tomb of a 15th century Sufi scholar and burned down a library in the Libyan city of Zlitan, a military official said on Saturday, Aug 25 the latest attacks on sites in the region branded idolatrous by some sects, Reuters reported.
The attackers used bombs and a bulldozer to destroy a complex of shrines that included the tomb of Abdel Salam al-Asmar on Friday and ruined thousands of books at the Asmari Mosque library, said witnesses and Zlitan military council official Omar Ali.
Hardliners, many of them emboldened by the Arab Spring revolts, have targeted a number of sites belonging to Islam's mystical Sufi tradition in Libya, Egypt and Mali over the past year.
The assaults have also recalled the 2001 dynamiting by the Taliban of two 6th-century statues of Buddha carved into a cliff in Bamiyan in central Afghanistan.
Friday's attacks followed two days of clashes between tribal factions in Zlitan which killed two people and injured 18, according to military council counts.
"The extremist Salafis took advantage (of the fact) that security officials were busy calming down the clashes and they desecrated the shrine," Ali told Reuters, referring to conservative Muslims who see many Sufi sites as idolatrous.

Rockies hire Mark Wiley as director of pitching operations
Oct 22, 2012, 7:30 PM EDT
No strangers to the unconventional, the Rockies announced today that they have hired Mark Wiley for their newly-created position of director of pitching operations.
Wiley worked as a scout with the Marlins this year and has previously served as pitching coach with the Orioles, Indians, Marlins and Royals. He's had two previous stints with the Rockies, first as senior director of player personnel in 2000 and as a special baseball operations assistant from November 2005 through 2007.
Troy Renck of the Denver Post notes that Wiley will oversee pitching throughout the organization in his new position and will also have significant input on who the Rockies hire as their next pitching coach.
Pitching has always been an issue at Coors Field and it was especially problematic this year, as the Rockies ranked last in the majors in both team ERA (5.22) and rotation ERA (5.81). The club implemented a four-man rotation in mid-June and limited their starters to around 75 pitches, but they are expected to return to a more traditional five-man rotation next season.

Libya: Airpower, SOF and the NTC
Nick Prime gets his cherry popped over at das Elkus gruppen's "Fear, Honor and Interest" (a group hug strategic website featuring sev cutting edge all stars) with a delish bit about Libyavention and future 'ventions.
If such limited contributions of men and resources could achieve such a strategically decisive result here, well this must be the recipe for future conflicts. If so much can be accomplished with so little, well we wouldn't need large combat brigades, we wouldn't need to get bogged down in quagmires. Just send in a few A-Teams, a few SEALs, some Combat Air Controllers and the B-52's, B-1B's, A-10's and AC-130's, shake lightly let sit for 4-6 months and presto! Fledgling democracy made easy….it could work right?
Not so fast, while airpower and special operations forces punched far above their weight in Afghanistan in '01 and seem to have done so here, it's important to understand the relationship between these tremendous capabilities and the strategic end state their capable (or incapable) of achieving. The limitations and strengths of these two extremely valuable strategic assets are significant enough to deserve their own post, so that will be saved for future consideration.
Congrats to Nick for making the plunge – now get over there and compliment/shred/like and tweet: :

France eyes Middle East influence, image with Syria gamble
PARIS (Reuters) - President Francois Hollande's decision to recognise Syria's new opposition bloc aims to secure long-term French interests in the region and boost his foreign policy image but, with few allies following suit, Paris may risk isolation.
With his economic policies under harsh scrutiny at home and abroad, Hollande's hesitant response to the Syria conflict before last week had been unflatteringly compared to the decisive approach of predecessor Nicolas Sarkozy when he led Western efforts to oust Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi.
Breaking with allies and the Arab League, Hollande took a leaf out of Sarkozy's book last week by recognising the Syrian National Coalition and backing it to replace President Bashar al-Assad's government. He said France would even study arming rebels waging a 20-month-old uprising to topple Assad.
The move, he hopes, will hand Paris a decisive role in shaping Syria's future and give his sagging approval ratings a boost with a show of decisive statesmanship.
"Hollande was accused of not being Sarkozy's equal so he wants to show he is capable of dynamic foreign policy," said Denis Bauchard, who was the foreign ministry's Middle East director in the 1990s.
"We are trying to help put in place a stable democratic government so it shows Arab public opinion that this region remains a priority for us and we want to play a major role."
Previous efforts to unite the opposition under the umbrella of the Syrian National Council ultimately failed after widespread accusations that the SNC had little sway within Syria and was dominated by the Islamist Muslim Brotherhood.
Paris is concerned that the window to unite the opposition is disappearing and the longer disunity prevails the more likely jihadist and al Qaeda elements, hostile to the West and now among the insurgents fighting Assad, would emerge on top.
"If we miss the opportunity to restructure the Syrian opposition, we can't shed crocodile tears afterwards saying it's descending into chaos," a French diplomatic source said.
"We don't think it's in the interests of Syria, the region, the international community or France to have radical Islamists changing the dynamics in Syria."
The new coalition, led by moderate Sunni Muslim cleric Mouaz Alkhatib, who met Hollande in Paris on Saturday, is more inclusive of minorities from a country of great ethnic and religious diversity. The SNC makes up a third of the new group.
Hollande is running the risk, however, that this new coalition may not win broad international backing in the end and meet the same fate as the SNC, which has gradually unravelled as the main opposition movement despite French support.
Hollande's decision took many by surprise given that the new Syrian National Coalition has yet to prove itself on the ground. Questions remain among France's allies over how representative it really is of the Syrian people and what values it stands for.
Unlike Libya's rebellion against Gaddafi last year, the Syrian coalition still lacks a clear unified military command. There is no consensus at the United Nations Security Council for a military operation to support it, and neither Russia nor China are ready to withdraw support for Assad.
"Hollande has the political ambition to make Syria his own Libya by supporting the new coalition but beyond the rhetoric there hasn't been any real change in the French position," says Ahyam Kamel, Syria analyst at consultancy Eurasia.
"I think it has already backfired. France is really alone on this as its partners do not yet see eye-to-eye on it."
At a meeting in Brussels on Monday, European Union foreign ministers said they deemed the new coalition to be "legitimate representatives" of Syrians but stopped just short of giving the full recognition as France itself has done.
French officials are adamant that the likes of the United States, Britain and the Arab League will soon come around.
But other Western states are uneasy over the presence of radical Islamists among the rebels and accusations by U.N. investigators of war crimes committed by insurgent fighters.
As the former colonial master in Syria, it makes sense for France to be a leader in solving the crisis and its economic ties with Assad's government have been modest in recent years.
By positioning itself now for the long term, Paris hopes to reap the business rewards from Syria's reconstruction.
"There is a long-term benefit if things go well. They can have more leverage on the new government and influence whatever transition takes place," said a Paris-based Arab diplomat.
There is also a threat to Lebanon, where France has its strongest political and economic links in the region and where 1,000 French troops are stationed in a U.N. peacekeeping force.
Since the assassination last month of Lebanon's top security official, Paris is increasingly alarmed by a spillover of violence from Syria. Hollande warned on a visit to Beirut this month that he would oppose those stoking instability in Lebanon.
"It's not only about the worsening situation in Syria but about contagion to countries that are important to us, especially Lebanon," said a French diplomat. "When Hollande went to Beirut that risk was spelt out to him."

How to avoid Lyme diseaseJune 03,2014Fact: Children are highest risk for Lyme and tick-borne diseases. Women are second.
But why are women second? I suspect it has something to do with a phone call from a female friend who had to relieve herself, went behind some bushes, and a few hours later found an embedded tick on her thigh. (Embedded means the head not the entire body is buried and stuck on with tick glue. This requires gentle and constant tugging as close to skin as possible with pointy tweezers or a tick tool. The release is sudden, so be prepared. Clean up with alcohol, wash hands, ID tick/put in freezer in sealed Baggie, photo the tick bite.
So what are children and females to do when they just have to go? Plan ahead. Make pit stops throughout your day so you are not caught in the out-and-about. Carry tick repellent in your car to spray on clothing if you venture behind the bushes or rub on the exposed parts. Women, do not squat. Dont be too modest assume a bent-over standing position and have a friend shield you from the public. Help your kids if little, hold them up, and if bigger, show them how to stand and pee backwards. If you just cant hold it, consider the most revolting thing you can imagine, yup, and change your clothing later. If that is too much info for you, make sure you do a thorough tick check immediately afterward, before you get in the car, put your clothes in the dryer for 30-60 minutes, get in the shower and scrub any loose ticks away and check for any that are embedded (and I mean where the sun dont shine). This reduces your chance of getting Lyme or another tick-borne disease by 80 percent. And have a nice day.

Pat McQuaid's UCI nomination to be re-considered
Pat McQuaid's nomination by Cycling Ireland to stand for a third term as head of the sport's world governing body is to be re-considered.
The Associated Press
Pat McQuaid's nomination by Cycling Ireland to stand for a third term as head of the sport's world governing body is to be re-considered.
The UCI president has been under pressure since details emerged of systematic doping by Lance Armstrong to win seven Tour de France titles. But McQuaid received the nomination after pledging to overhaul the UCI.
However, Cycling Ireland says its board would hold an emergency general meeting at a date to be determined "to consider matters which have arisen following the decision taken at its board meeting on April 12th to nominate Mr. Pat McQuaid."
Cycling Ireland chief executive Geoff Liffey says details of the meeting will be circulated to member clubs next week.

Online trolls say crash was MY fault, says cyclist kicked to the ground on Embankment
A cyclist who was kicked to the ground by a BMX biker as he rode through central London said today he is facing a barrage of abuse from people who think he is to blame.
Scrap the bendy bus and bring back Routemasters, says Boris
Published: 11 September 2007
Mr Johnson said that the controversial buses were abused by fare dodgers and highly dangerous to cyclists.
Speaking at the first Tory candidates hustings meeting, the MP for Henley said that he would introduce a new version of the Routemaster bus that had been axed by Ken Livingstone. Their replacement would be fully accessible for the disabled and mothers with buggies.
He said: "We should on day one, act one, scene one, hold a competition to get rid of the bendy bus. They wipe out cyclists, there are many cyclists killed every year by them.
"It's not beyond the wit of man to design a new Routemaster which will stand as an icon of this city."
Mr Johnson also said that he would stand up for the "many" in London who depended on their car and vowed to spend more of the congestion charge on repairing roads, particularly outside the centre of the city.
Just £10 million of the nearly £1 billion raised by the congestion charge had gone on improving roads, he said.
In a question and answer session in Westminster last night, the Tory front-runner also called for all ethnic minority communities in London to have a "good command of English".
He said: "It's tragic that there are people in the second and third generations who still don't speak English.
"If you don't speak English, you cannot take part in the economy and that's one of the reasons those communities are doing badly."
Mr Livingstone has already attacked him in personal terms, Mr Johnson claimed, with the Mayor suggesting he was a racist, a Right-winger and a friend of convicted fraudster Darius Guppy. He said that the public were ready for a new face to run London. "I think the fact that he has been at it for so long... is now turning into his single biggest weakness," he said.
Fellow candidate Victoria Borwick called for police to end the practice of patrolling in pairs, while Andrew Boff vowed to axe the congestion charge.
Warwick Lightfoot praised the Mayor's fight against Gordon Brown over the PPP for the Tube.
Mr Boff was the only candidate to pledge to scrap the congestion charge completely and to axe free child travel on buses. He said: "The congestion charge contract comes up in 2009. It doesn't just need mending, it doesn't need extending, it needs ending."
Both Mr Boff and Mr Lightfoot suggested Mr Johnson was not the man for the job.
Mr Boff said that the capital had had enough of "celebrity" politicians, while Mr Lightfoot said the Tories needed a candidate "without baggage".

COPENHAGEN, Denmark, March 26, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Napatech, the world's leading supplier of network analysis adapters, today released the latest whitepaper in its "Time to ReThink" series, which addresses the rapid growth in data volume and complexity facing network equipment manufacturers today. In "Time to ReThink SDN and NFV," Napatech focuses on how real-time insight can be implemented in conjunction with software-defined networking (SDN) and network functions virtualization (NFV) in order to assure quality of experience (QoE) and security in telecom networks.
- SDN and NFV's promise of agility and flexibility must be complemented by the real-time capability to adapt.
- Real-time insight into network and service usage provides the intelligence for SDN controllers and NFV management to act. This can be to reroute traffic, increase bandwidth in a certain area, change service parameters or even offer a new service or upgrade.
- Real-time insight can be used to assure QoE and security that in turn can be sold as services to over-the-top (OTT) service providers.
- Integrating this capability into SDN and NFV builds agility and responsiveness into carrier organizations.
- Napatech enables real-time analysis of applications and services used on mobile networks through guaranteed data delivery and nanosecond time-stamping resolution.
Henrik Brill Jensen, CEO, Napatech, said:
"The technology for implementing real-time insight to manage SDN and NFV already exists. It is not a technical hurdle, but involves rethinking the role of carriers. A modern carrier needs to partner with a growing ecosystem of OTT players to ensure that subscribers are getting what they want, the way they want it. Napatech enables the real-time insight to make this possible, while also reducing time-to-market and risk."
About Napatech
Napatech is the leading supplier of real-time analysis adapters with over 140,000 Ethernet ports deployed worldwide. Designed for use with Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) servers, Napatech adapters enable rapid development of powerful appliances for high performance analysis.

Downton Abbey loses O'Brien, adds six new cast members in Season 4
|Report an Error
Share via Email
NEW YORK—Downton Abbey is going to look quite different when it returns for a fourth season.
On Friday, Siobhan Finneran — better known to fans as O'Brien, Lady Grantham's constantly scheming, severely coiffed maid — confirmed that she is leaving the beloved costume drama. Finneran follows co-stars Dan Stevens and Jessica Brown Findlay out the door, though it seems likely her character will do so under less tragic circumstances than theirs: in the Season 3 finale, O'Brien was jockeying hard for a new job that would allow her to see more of the world.
O'Brien's exit can only come as good news to the Grantham family, who over the years have repeatedly fallen victim to O'Brien's cruel machinations: most notably in Season 1 when her ladyship, pregnant with a long-awaited male heir, slipped on a strategically placed bar of soap and miscarried.
Finneran's departure may be felt more acutely by fans who will no doubt miss O'Brien's snide cutdowns and seemingly insatiable appetite for revenge. But fear not: over the weekend Carnival Films, producers of Downton Abbey, announced that six new cast members will be joining the series when it returns for a fourth season.
Surely there will be at least one delightfully wicked character among the new crop: opera singer Dame Kiri Te Kanawa will star as a guest who comes to perform at the Crawley family home, while Dame Harriet Walter, a veteran actress known for playing snooty, upper-crust types in films such as Atonement and Sense and Sensibility, will appear as Lady Shackleton, a friend of the Dowager Countess. (For those of you keeping track, that brings Downton Abbey's dame tally to three.)
In what may be the most interesting addition to the cast, Tom Cullen, brooding star of the acclaimed indie drama Weekend, will join the cast as Lord Gillingham. In the announcement, his character was billed simply as "an old family friend of the Crawleys who has known Lady Mary since childhood" but is widely rumoured to be the widow's new love interest.
Rounding out the new batch are Nigel Harman as a visiting valet, Joanna David as the Duchess of Yeovil and Julian Ovenden as an aristocrat named Charles Blake.
Carnival Films also released a publicity photo of Lady Mary (Michelle Dockery) holding her infant son: yet another fresh face, though one less likely to replace O'Brien as the show's resident villain.
While there was no word about the rumoured addition of a black cast member, producers did confirm that Shirley MacLaine, who made a brief appearance as Lady Grantham's mother in Season 3, will return in the upcoming Christmas special.

'No remorse' judge condemns teens who stabbed boy to death as he jails them for life

Published: 18 December 2012
Two teenagers were today given life terms for murdering an innocent schoolboy.
Kwame Ofosu-Asare, 17, was mistaken for a rival in a "poisonous and senseless" gang war.
He was knifed to death in broad daylight while he was walking with a friend through the Moorlands Estate in Brixton, south London, in March.
Nelson Idiabeta, 18, of no fixed address, and Nathaniel Okusanya, 19, of Vibart Gardens, Lambeth, south London, were found guilty of murder.
Sentencing them at the Old Bailey, Judge Richard Marks ordered that Idiabeta serve a minimum term of 19 years and Okusanya, 20 years.
He told them: "It was Kwame's misfortune to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.
"Neither of you has shown one iota of remorse for what you did."
Crispin Aylett QC, prosecuting, told jurors: "Kwame's death was but a part of a poisonous and senseless feud between two rival gangs of youths in south London."
He added that Kwame was not a member of either gang. He had been to a recording studio in the area.
Kwame was stabbed repeatedly in the back and received a total of 14 wounds while walking in Adelaide Close with a friend.
They tried to get away by going into a side road where the friend's aunt lived, but the aunt was not home and they were trapped in a cul de sac.
The court heard that the attack had its roots in a feud between the TN1 (Trust No-One) gang from the Tulse Hill area of south London and Brixton-based GAS (Guns and Shanks).
Idiabeta and Okusanya were members of the TN1 group out to avenge one of their number who had been stabbed in a bus garage attack carried out by the GAS gang earlier in the day.
Kwame's father Kwaku, a sports journalist, told the court in a statement that his son was full of potential.
He was in the sixth form of Forest Hill School and excelled in sport, music and acting and had great ambitions to make something of his life.
Mr Ofosu-Asare said: "Kwame was a very vibrant, energetic and enthusiastic boy.
"His brother and sister are struggling to cope with his death. All our lives have been ruined."

The pope and a lawyer are on the elevator...
The pope and a lawyer are on the elevator to heaven. When they arrive at the gates, there's a mad rush of angels, saints, and other holy people on their way to greet them. When they arrive, they pick the lawyer up on their shoulders and carry him off cheering hysterically. The pope is deeply saddened. St. Peter sees this and goes over to him and says, "Don't feel bad. We get popes in here all the time, it's not every day we get a lawyer."
