Despite the World Food Summit goal of halving the number of hungry in the world between 1996 and 2015, the number has remained stubbornly constant, with an uptick in the number as a result of the 2007-2008 crop price hikes. Currently the official Food and Agricultural Organization 2010-2012 estimate of the number of undernourished people is 870 million, though some aid organizations offer higher estimates.
At the same time, the world's population is projected to grow from the current 7 billion to around 9 billion by 2050. Unsurprisingly, the question arises as to how we are going to feed 2 billion additional people by 2050, when we already have nearly 1 billion facing chronic hunger.
Recently we were asked to take part in a symposium at the Entomological Society of America annual meeting in Knoxville titled: "Feeding future generations: Expanding a global science to answer a global challenge." The focus of that challenge was to identify ways to feed 9 billion people in 2050. What follows in a synopsis of our presentation.
We preface what follows by noting that it appears to us that the multinational biotech seed and chemical companies have responded to this challenge by positioning their products as the primary solution to meeting this goal. Not incidentally, they are also using this challenge as a justification for pressing the case for the extension of their intellectual property rights through trade negotiations.
As a result of our readings and discussion with others, it appears to us that much of the discussion about feeding 9 billion people by 2050 has been captured by these firms by setting up a false dichotomy.
On the one side, we have what might be called the current mechanized agricultural model. In this model, the goal is to bring the latest technologies (read GMOs and agricultural chemicals) to bear on solving this problem. It is argued that through the use of patented products and technologies, US farmers can boost their production to help meet the increased demand for food.
Similarly farmers in developing nations can use these same patented technologies and products to boost their crop production. But in order to make these technologies and products available, the agribusiness firms need to make sure that their intellectual property is protected. So what the companies want to do is offer the free use of products like a GMO cassava to a country's farmers in exchange for their setting up US-style intellectual property rights and regulatory agencies in their country. The vision is to remold subsistence farmers into entrepreneurial export-oriented producers.

Tucker, 29, was arrested for extreme DUI in May, although reports of the arrest did not arise until a few days ago.
Tucker was charged on four counts, according to the reports. He faced a severe penalty of 45 days in jail for registering a .222 blood alcohol level, nearly three times the legal limit.
In addition to the three days in jail, Tucker faces 11 days of house arrest, but will be allowed to leave for work for no more than 12 hours per day.
He must submit to substance abuse screening and counseling, and could face probation for up to five years. He must also pay $2,750 in fines, not including court costs and jail costs of up to $200 per day, according to the Arizona Republic.
Tucker released a statement through the team, which read: "I would like to express my gratitude to the people of Phoenix for their love and support during my time as a Phoenix Sun. Thank you to the Phoenix Suns organization for supporting me throughout this difficult time. And, of course my wife Tracey, family and friends, who just keep loving me. I cannot express how much I appreciate and value the many blessings that I have been given - love and abundance that I never imagined. I am truly blessed. I am so grateful that no one was hurt as a result of my choice to drive impaired.
"I am truly sorry and I take full responsibility for my actions. No excuses. It is now my responsibility to examine my life and make the changes necessary to ensure this never happens again. That process has begun and will continue with the love and support of my family, friends and, of course, the amazing Phoenix Suns.
"There is both a lesson and an opportunity in this experience: I learned the lesson the hard way - the opportunity is to ensure others don't.
"The good that resulted from making this mistake is realizing people's capacity to forgive. Thank you all so much for the love and forgiveness that I have received throughout this time.
"I will not let you down. Thank you."
Suns president of basketball operations Lon Babby released a statement, which read as follows:
"Like P.J. himself, the Phoenix Suns take P.J.'s behavior very seriously," Babby said. "We remain fully committed to the highest standards of personal and professional conduct as we develop a championship culture," the statement said. "All of the members of our team, both on the court and in the front office, understand the importance of obeying the law and conducting ourselves in a way that honors our community.
"In considering this matter, we concluded that P.J. was sincere in his remorse and in his resolve to accept the consequences of his actions. We are convinced that he will take the necessary steps to avoid any such conduct in the future. The Suns do not in any way condone his conduct, but we do support him as he works through this."
On July 23, Tucker signed a three-year, $16.5 million contract with the Suns. He started 81 games last season and averaged 9.4 points and 6.5 rebounds.

Code Blue: Brand Resuscitation
Four steps to determine if a brand is worth saving - and ways to save it
Organizations in the life sciences industry are facing unprecedented challenges, including reduced research and development productivity, price and cost pressures, expiring patents, and weak product pipelines. To survive and thrive in this difficult environment, companies must maximize the value from their in-line products.
Intense pressure to reduce costs is putting sales and marketing investments under increased scrutiny and tempting many companies to cut marketing spend for lackluster brands with declining sales. However, that may not be the best approach.
In our latest white paper, "Code Blue: Brand Resuscitation," we discuss how investing in brand resuscitation can pay big dividends, under the right circumstances.
We review:
- Watching for the danger signs
- Identifying root causes
- Developing options
- Leaping into action
A critical, disciplined look at the key issues driving suboptimal performance is an essential element of brand resuscitation. An opportunity to recalibrate expectations, adjust the strategy, reposition the brand, or change tactics might exist. In the right situation, companies can realize much greater value from existing assets without sabotaging their valuable brand equity.

I just bought a bengal 09 from a friend, he rarely used it.
Now i'm using it a lot and seen that the string is being weared off by the idler wheel.
I see that the angle made by the string from the idler wheel to the string separator is too wide and is making the string to enter too diagonal in the wheel and is getting friction to one of he wheel edges.
what should i do?
i'd think about two options:
- change the string sepparator?
- add twists to one of the upper cable sides so the limb twists al little and compensates the angle .. ? ( think this is not a good idea, but still an idea )

Performance Evaluation Advisory Council (PEAC)
New Evaluation Systems Provide Illinois Educators Greater Support
In 2010, Gov. Pat Quinn signed the Performance Evaluation Reform Act (PERA), which requires all schools in Illinois to change how teachers' and principals' performance is measured. PERA requires districts to design and implement performance evaluation systems that assess teachers' and principals' professional skills as well as incorporate measures of student growth.
Teacher evaluation systems should provide clear descriptions of professional excellence so everyone understands what great teaching means. The evaluations will be based on standards of effective practice, with evaluators trained and pre-qualified to conduct observations, collect evidence and provide helpful, timely feedback. The PERA-based evaluations add objectivity to a practice that almost universally was subjective.
In addition, student achievement will become a significant factor in every evaluation by the 2016-17 school year. Beginning Sept. 1, 2012, both teachers and administrators in all districts (even those that have not yet adopted new evaluation systems) began to be rated using one of these four performance categories: Excellent, Proficient, Needs Improvement or Unsatisfactory.
The Illinois Performance Evaluation Advisory Council (made up of stakeholders from across the state) came together to discuss communication regarding the teacher and principal evaluator training and changes that are occurring. Below are documents that will help communicate a consistent message and reflect the changes to teachers and principal evaluations.

Evaluators can begin observing teachers once they complete Modules 1, 2, and 3. For teacher evaluators, completion of module 4 will prequalify them to evaluate if the district is not implementing student growth. Module 5 must be completed by evaluators whose districts are implementing student growth.

The following resources and videos are reflective of various lessons, lesson artifacts, classroom activities, and instructional strategies. Districts may find these especially useful during the transition to Common Core:
- The Washington DC Public School Educator Portal offers a wide variety of teaching resources and video libraries
- The Measures of Effective Teaching Extension (METX)
Collection includes classroom footage and scanned lesson artifacts captured during the 2011-2012 and 2012-2013 academic years. The METX project enlisted more than 350 teacher volunteers from six school districts, collecting video and other artifacts of everyday classroom activities that document thousands of lessons. This was a large-scale effort to create a rich resource for educators and researchers that will contribute to the improvement of teaching and learning. The recorded lessons in the METX collection include a variety of English Language Arts and Mathematics classroom topics as well as a range of lessons and activities. Many of the videos have been tagged using a tag scheme based on the Common Core State Standards and the TeachingWorks High Leverage Practices. The collection also includes an array of lesson artifacts—teacher lesson plans, worksheets and handouts, homework assignments, and images of board work. The MET Extension video library through the University of Michigan can be accessed at this site: http://soe.mivideo.it.umich.edu
- The Teaching Channel
A video showcase -- on the Internet and TV -- of innovative and effective teaching practices in America's schools.
- MET Project
A report developed from the MET Project on the process for master coding videos to be used in observer training and certification.

Observation Engine enters the world of online learning and offers even more flexibility for school systems to improve and implement their training and calibration efforts. With the release of v3.3, administrators can create online Lessons targeted towards specific areas of instruction, for not only educator evaluators, but for their teachers and instructional staff as well. Video "clipping" is now also available in v3.3. The ability to create video clips provides a powerful way to leverage Observation Engine's video library, whether you are conducting certification testing, calibration events, or providing online learning opportunities. Release is scheduled for November 2013.

The programme may strike a different note -- this year's Davos is apparently all about Shared Norms for the New Reality -- but much of the discussion at the 41st World Economic Forum annual meeting in Davos this month will have a distinctly familiar ring to it.
Last January, the five-day talkfest in the Swiss Alps was dominated by Greece's near-death experience at the hands of the bond market and recriminations over the role of bankers in the financial crisis, as well as worries about China's rapid economic ascent and a lot of calls for a new trade deal.
Fast forward 12 months and not much has changed.
Ireland has joined Greece in the euro zone's intensive care unit and Portugal and Spain are getting round-the-clock monitoring. The annual round of bankers' bonuses is once again stirring up trouble. China looms larger than ever on the global stage, after overtaking Japan in 2010 to become the world's second-biggest economy. And trade ministers who signally failed to make headway last year say they really must get down to business when they meet on the sidelines of Davos this time round.
For a sense of the deja vu, take a look at the WEF's latest hot-off-the-press report on Global Risks -- a 50-page tome on the spider's web of interconnected threats now facing the world. Not much progress in addressing them has been made, it seems. Government debt and the danger of sovereign default remains top of the risk hit-list, alongside macroeconomic imbalances, the fragility of the economic recovery and resource limits. It is a very similar litany as a year ago.
Worryingly, while the threats remain all too visible, the report's authors conclude that the world is now uniquely vulnerable to any further shocks in the wake of the financial crisis.

Ahead of the council, Hammond spoke of the need for a "concerted effort" to tackle the spread of Ebola.Hammond supported the EU's decision to provide €1 billion to combat Ebola, describing it as a "worthwhile investment". Hammond also said that the "only way we're going to stop the spread of this disease is to make sure people are isolated and treated early". Hammond also spoke about the ongoing fight against the Islamic State and the need to assist Ukraine in dealing with the "crisis they are facing in energy supply". Credit: © European Union

For the Love of Smeg Refrigerators
I don't know about you, but the sight of a Smeg refrigerator in a kitchen just makes me happy. I love how much personality they add to a room. They're so streamlined, so retro, so cheerful!
And there are so many colors to choose from! Whether you go neutral with white, silver or black, bold with orange or chartreuse, or graphic with stripes or a red cross, you simply can't go wrong. Me? I'm partial to color when it comes to my Smegs, and right now, I'm feeling bIue (Smegs, that is). I'm drooling over the peacock-colored one, and this sapphire blue version from West Elm is calling my name, too. Then again, the charcoal glam one at the end may have stopped my heart completely...
(I realize that the last one isn't exactly streamlined, retro or cheerful for that matter, but it's so drop-dead gorgeous, that I just had to include it!)
Which one gives you butterflies?

Cue the Red Dwarf references in 3, 2, 1...
I would kill to have one of these in my kitchen. In Red.
Seriously though, I've seen these in Italy and they're very cool. I don't know why our fridges are so big here in the US. They don't need to be.
Coolest thing ever. Had one. Would neve have one again. Not efficient, and all the bits in the door broke/cracked really easily (never happened with any other fridge); too big outside for the actual space you get inside. Also had 2 Dysons (upright and pull along) - sold both. Upright had incredible suction but was so heavy it was a pain to use (and I'm fairly strong). Roberts radio on the other hand is a thing of beauty with great sound quality.
they are extremely good looking though, maybe you could have used it as a closet?
Dysons are some of the lighest vaccuums I've ever used, and I'm on the small side.
I agree, sort of. Some people do need larger fridges. Families, for instance. I cook a lot and often for dinner parties and don't drive often and having the storage for many ingredients is helpful. I could be fine with a Smeg-sized fridge, but it would take some adjusting and I couldn't store as much food. As it is, my fridge is a lot smaller (17-18 cubic feet) than the typical mid range fridge that is sold today.
I've loved the look of SMEGs since I first saw one. Plus, I love the word "SMEG." It's a lot of fun to say! However, if I did actually splurge on a retro fridge, I think I'd go with a Big Chill, which has a similar look, but seems more practical, and possibly better quality.
I cook all my meals and don't always want to stop to pick up ingredients daily so even for a married couple, I really do appreciate my large american fridge. Oh and, my tap water is not great tasting, so my built in water/ice dispenser is a must-have for me.
That said, these are super cute, and if I were still single/living in the city/going out to eat more than cooking, I'd love one.
Pink would be my favorite if I was single gal for sure!!!!! I first saw the pink one in a Flickr friend in UK's kitchen. It was love at first sight.
Cream is pretty dreamy. I would love to own one. Just two of us and we don't need much space...all that personality!
I love the look, but since I read that they are of questionable quality, my desire has faded.
Love the look...very funky...especially when living in a small space!
"Bigger isn't always better".
I can see one in a corner alcove in my studio to be.
Love the look, concerned about reliability.
Otoh, I LOVE my dyson. I went thru about four vacuum cleaners in the past five years. Every single one of them was a lemon. Maybe it was just my bad luck. Then I bit the bullet and bought a dyson upright. That sucker is amazing and I never have a problem with it. And it's light. I have to empty it more frequently but now I am not afraid to vacuum or have to carry my screwdrivers and extra belts when all I want to do is clean the upstairs hallway.
I have a smaller frige similar in size though not as chic as a Smeg. I love the smaller size of the refigerator- easier to keep clean, takes up less room, etc. However I dearly miss having a larger frezzer. I love have ready to go meals in the freezer. But with the smaller size of the freezer I don't have room for much at all.
Whoa, my jaw hit the ground on that last one. Want!!
@YoNella, lol, that took me a minute. 'Smeghead!'
@thorndale - my brother and sister-in-law have a tiny kitchen and an amazing Liebherr 24" fridge that really uses space well. They have loved it - now about 5 years in. I think it is the CS 1360 model: http://www.liebherr.us/HGH/en-GB/products_us-hg.wfw/id-582409-0_25091-4
I have the pale blue one in my kitchen and LOVE it. I also have 2 small kids and cook at home a lot and never had a problem with bits falling off or fitting stuff in. It's a beauty and a good family fridge. I'd recommend it in a heartbeat.
Smeg's are cute but damn they are tiny! I suppose it is perfect for someone who lives alone.
I do like the retro look, but as someone who downgraded to a 9.2 cu. ft. refrigerator a year ago (I bought a Danby from Sears - http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_12605_04687556000P?sid=IDx01192011x000001&kispla=04687556000P&srccode=cii_17588969&cpncode=33-134442120-2#reviewsWrap) my purpose was to scale the size of the appliance to my small kitchen, as well as my single man lifestyle. As opposed to wasting space on a "look," I'd rather have better, more affordable refrigerated in-cabinet options (drawers and bins).
call me a Smeghead, I want one so badly I'm looking for aluminum letters to stick on my current fridge. Wish they were available in Canada!!
I have had mine for just over a year and could not be happier with this purchase. It is perfect for my needs and the small freezer has made it easier to cut back on the frozen meals and buy more fresh. Though it does hold more than you might expect. I had just moved into my apartment when I got it so I am not sure how it might have effect my con ed bill but over all it is pretty low average less than 40.00 a month, so I do expect it has effected it much.
Everytime I look at it, it makes me happy, well worth the splurge.
p.s. also, I have not noticed any cracking or breakage of the inside organizers, as some else mentioned. It still all looks brand new.
while a small freezer may help one cut back on frozen meals, it doesn't help those of us with families that like to make large batches of meals (especially soups) and freeze what we do not eat right away for a later meal... (or freeze some of the veggies we get from our co-op delivery in the summer)
... they ARE beautiful, tho!
You can get a left or right hinge Smeg, so why do many of these have the hinge on the more awkward side?
My 1958 kitchen screams for an orange Smeg. However, I rent and someday I will own a place to keep a Smeg. Who knows which color that space might need? So, for the meantime, I bought a white 10cf LG. I would never, ever, go back to a large scale refrigerator.
And yes, I bought a fridge for a rental. Welcome to Los Angeles, where refrigeration is a privilege, not a right.
Dysons rock. Who told me so? My younger brother, whom I did not think had ever used a vacuum.
Regarding the choice of hinge side, it depends on the space you will be putting in and the clearance needed to open it. My door opens to the left, the stove would have been in the way had it gone to the right. So I am sure others chose theres accordingly as well.
That powder blue one...oh my. Perfection!
I am also looking into smaller, "euro" sized fridges. We currently have a big U.S.-style fridge in our kitchen that we bought right after we moved in, just before the baby came. We thought as a young married couple starting a family that we would need a lot of fridge and freezer storage. However, even though our family is growing we are using less and less space because how we shop, cook, and eat has become more healthy and fresh. Even looking ahead a few years when two elderly parents will join us, I don't see how we will need this giant fridge. I looked at Smegs when I first began to plan our kitchen remodel (which is still in planning, hasn't happened yet, but it's getting closer I can feel it). I did read that the quality is so hit or miss. I've since begun looking at global/American brands that make euro-sized fridges in their regular lines. You won't often find them on display at Best Buy or Sears, but you can order them through stores or the manufacturers website, even Amazon sometimes. I think if I shop carefully and swoop in at the right time, I'll get a good price. Plus, I'll have plenty of local repairment who know how to fix the fridge I have. It's weird how sometimes handymen are specialized, just like car repair shops. I wouldn't have imagined there were that many unique ways to make a fridge.
I have the grocers within a few blocks...many people do in america...yet they still stock up and drive a block over for groceries. I hope this changes.
EVEN THOUGH I walk to the grocery every other day and keep little in the fridge I need more freezer space than the mini SMEG offered by West Elm for frozen fish and seafood, ice cubes, seasonal frozen fruit and veggies, ice cream, ice packs for aches and pains.....doesn't fit in that mini fridge.
HOW CAN I GET THE LARGER 24" Bottom freezer version (or even the one in that photo) that everyone really wants! I am in the USA, not far from Canada.

I hope all of you had a Happy Thanksgiving! I took the reindeer down to the South Pole for Thanksgiving, to visit cousins there, and it was a very smooth test flight!
Things are in full swing up here at the North Pole, and it looks like it will be another busy year.
So what do you want for Christmas?
Ho, ho, ho!

Filter calls and/or messages from contact list using set parameters based on day(s) of the week, start time, and end time. Blocked calls redirect to voicemail, while blocked messages are stored via filter log. Also possible to block outgoing calls.
Similar to Windows Task Manager, it shows a list of running apps and their size (MB), CPU load, used memory, and number of threads and services – with an option to stop or uninstall.
Part of the avast! WebRep™ cloud, the avast! Web Shield for Android scans each URL that loads and warns you if the browser loads a malware-infected URL.
Add a firewall to stop hackers. Disable an app's internet access when on WiFi and 3G and roaming mobile networks. (Works only on rooted phones.)
After downloading avast! Anti-Theft, user can choose a custom name that disguises the app (e.g. call it "Pinocchio game") so that it is even harder for thieves to find and remove.
Once anti-theft is enabled, the app icon is hidden in the app tray, leaving no audio or other trace on the target phone – the app is 'invisible', making it difficult for thieves to detect or remove.
Establish a 'white list' of approved SIM cards that can be used in the phone without triggering a theft alert. You can also easily clear the trusted SIM cards list, to leave the one present in the phone as the only trusted one.
Anti-Theft only launches itself and runs when it needs to perform tasks. This preserves battery life and makes it very difficult for thieves to shut it down.
If stolen and a different (unauthorized) SIM card inserted, the phone can lock, activate siren, and send you notification (to remote device) of the phone's new number and geo-location.
Extremely difficult for thieves to remove (especially on rooted phones), Anti-Theft protects itself from uninstall by disguising its components with various self-preservation techniques. On rooted phones it is able to survive hard-resets and can even disable the phone's USB port.
A setup wizard guides the user through the installation process on rooted phones by either writing directly or by generating an update file. No command-line knowledge is necessary to install Anti-Theft rooted. Also supports upgrading the app.
Option to sound a loud siren, which returns always to maximum volume if thieves try to silence. This siren sound can also be customized (e.g. record own siren sound or select siren sound from file).
To protect your data, phone can be locked remotely and then cannot be accessed again without entering the password specified by the user.
Enables remote locking of the phone's App Manager and/or phone settings.
Remotely send a customized message to locked or non-locked phone display (e.g. with a reward for its return).
Remotely locate phone via GPS, WiFi, or mobile network – for maximum accuracy. Can locate either once or continuously (GPS can be auto-enabled on all rooted phones or non-rooted phones from Android 1.6 to 2.2).
Remotely trigger a full, permanent wipe of all phone data (e.g. contacts, call log, SMS/MMS, browser history, apps, email accounts), including reliable, physical wipe of all memory cards from Android 2.2 on (limited functionality on older versions).
Remotely have the phone call you elsewhere with screen blackened, so that thieves cannot see it. This way you can listen to the phone's surroundings.
Remotely activate/deactivate option to forward or copy call data and/or SMS messages to another device. Call data goes to remote device, but not the call itself. SMS messages, however, are forwarded in their entirety ("CC" copies also to original device).
Remotely send a "Lost" command to trigger same actions as SIM card change (e.g. phone lock, siren, or USB lock). "Found" command deactivates "Lost" command.
Query the call log, contacts, and SMS messages remotely (with each forwarded as a separate SMS message, but able to be filtered).
Remotely trigger phone to send an SMS to another phone. That way, if you forget the phone somewhere, you can reply nonetheless to incoming calls or SMS messages.
Reboot the phone by SMS command, which will lock the phone by asking for the SIM's PIN code. (Works only on rooted phones.)
Phone is able to send low battery notification to a secondary device.
All of the Anti-Theft settings can be changed remotely.
All SMS commands must begin with your avast! password. For example, if your avast! password is set to 2222, a lock command should look like this:
Sample: 2222 LOST Marks the phone as LOST. This command initiates the same actions as a SIM card change, depending on the settings.
Sample: 2222 FOUND Marks the phone as FOUND. This command disables the phone lock as well as the siren alarm.
Sample: 2222 LOCK Lock the mobile phone
Sample: 2222 UNLOCK Unlock the mobile phone
MESSAGE <message text>
Sample: 2222 MESSAGE Give back my phone! Will display a message on the phone. Can be dismissed. Use LOCK and SET LOCKTEXT to display a sticky message
Sample: 2222 SIREN ON Turn siren on
Sample: 2222 SIREN OFF Turn siren off
Sample: 2222 LOCATE Locate the device
LOCATE <interval duration in minutes>
Sample: 2222 LOCATE 5 Track the device continuously
Sample: 2222 LOCATE STOP Stop continous tracking
CALL [phone number]
Sample: 2222 CALL Sample: 2222 CALL +43660333555 If no phone number is given this command causes the phone to call you back. If you give the phone number the phone will call the given number
FORWARD SMS [phone number]
Sample: 2222 FORWARD SMS Sample: 2222 FORWARD SMS +43660333555 If no phone number is given, incoming SMS will silently be forwarded to the phone that sent the command. If a phone number is given, incoming SMS will be forwarded to the given phone number. This command overrides all previously issued SMS-forwarding-settings.
The forwarding can be cancelled by issuing the FORWARD SMS STOP command or by launching avast! Anti-Theft.
CC SMS [phone number]
Sample: 2222 CC SMS Sample: 2222 CC SMS +43660333555 Same as FORWARD SMS, but will not delete the SMS after forwarding which means that the forwarded SMS will still be delivered to the target phone (CC means carbon copy). This command overrides all previously issued SMS-forwarding-settings.
The forwarding can be cancelled by issuing the CC SMS STOP command or by launching avast! Anti-Theft.
CC CALLS [phone number]
Sample: 2222 CC CALLS Sample: 2222 CC CALLS +43660222333 By issuing this command you can request SMS notifications about incoming calls. The notifications will be sent to the phone that issued the command if no other phone number is given. This command overrides all previously issued call-forwarding-settings.
We did not implement direct forwarding of the calls as this works differently in the networks around the world. Also it is not possible to hide the forwarding settings from the thieves eyes reliably.
The forwarding can be cancelled by issuing the CC CALLS STOP command or by launching avast! Anti-Theft.
CC ALL [phone number]
Sample: 2222 CC ALL Sample: 2222 CC ALL +43660222333 Combines the CC SMS and the CC CALLS command. This command overrides all previously issued SMS- and call-forwarding- settings.
The forwarding can be cancelled by issuing the CC ALL STOP command or by launching avast! Anti-Theft.

Avast! Anti-Theft is able to launch any programs on the phone and pass data to the launched program.
SMS command: <Activity or service name, fully qualified> <arguments>
2222 at.domain.package.Activity Test will start the activity OR service at.domain.package.Activity and pass Test as an parameter to it.
2222 at.domain.package.Activity This is my command line will start the activity OR service at.domain.package.Activity and pass This is my command line as an parameter to it.
The activity or service needs to be positioned on the root of the package (sub-packages are NOT supported).
Data transfer is done via Intent:
Intent i = new Intent();
i.putExtra("number", origNumber);
i.putExtra("cmd", data);
This means you can then read (in your service or activity) the sender number in the String extra number and the command from the String extra cmd.
Anti-Theft always tries to start an Activity first, if none is found it tries to start a Service, if this fails it will reply with an error SMS.
1. On 8 April 2014, Microsoft stops support for Internet Explorer browsers running on Windows XP. This will put your computer and data, such as credit card and online banking details, at greater risk to hackers and malware.
2. Several browser alternatives exist, but we at AVAST use and recommend Chrome, as we find it to be the most-secure option available.

"Love the feel of the material"
By OldBoy
from Tampa,Florida
I've purchased both triumphs vale tudo shorts (red and green) and there the perfect fit for my wrestling very breathable and the mobility is spot on. I've had some discomfort with board shorts when going for double or single leg take downs but with the triumph vale tudo shorts I'm able to slide and move faster without restriction.

Waiting for a MeeGo: Intel and Nokia to Open Repository
Following the announcement in February, the subsequent weeks were pretty quiet around the MeeGo mobile platform. The reason why: no code.
If it were up to Intel and Nokia, we'd be seeing the first devices with the new platform around the end of year. MeeGo is a merge of Maemo and Moblin. However, there's been a general silence about it since the announcement mid-February, with no nice screenshots or source code publicly available.
One reason for the silence is the particularities of the merger. While Intel meant its Moblin platform primarily for netbooks and smartphones based on its Atom processor, Nokia's Maemo and its related devices are based specifically on the ARM platform. Many Maemo fans thus fear that Maemo will get short shrift in relation to Moblin. That this is not the case was raised rather vehemently by Valtteri Halla, coleader of the MeeGo technical steering group, in a blog the beginning of March. According to Halla, Nokia's N900 will serve as a reference design next to Intel's Atom motherboards for MeeGo development. Work is supposedly being done at a high pitch to get the first MeeGo release out by the end of March.
Big tickets
While ARM and x86 are being developed in parallel, the merger required three commonalities, which Hallas describes as the "big ticket items":
- Qt should be implemented as the widget set (which is no surprise after Nokia's takeover of Trolltech). Maemo was originally based on the Gtk widget set, but a transition to Qt was already planned for MeeGo from the start.
- The package manager should transition from apt-get to RPM (or yum), which Intel had been advocating, a decision with a direct bearing on the third big ticket item:
- The build environment. For this, the three partners, Intel, Nokia and the hosting Linux Foundation, settled on the OpenSUSE Build Service. Intel had already integrated Moblin into the build service with some success.
What's ahead?
Before code can be released, a common code basis and repository are needed. Recently the MeeGo team requested from the steering group to form a repository working group that would be responsible for managing the public repository.
Then there are a number of smaller ticket items to discuss. As Hallas writes, some agreement prevails as to using X.org as the X server, Connman as the network manager, Gstreamer, D-Bus and the commonly developed Ofono telephony solution. Another item under discussion is the browser. While some developers are already working on Firefox Fennec for MeeGo, Arjan van de Ven, on the MeeGo developer list, is advocating Webkit or Chrome for better performance reasons:
"I would be seriously concerned about using either Firefox or Fennec on a mobile device. Looking at the current ecosystem, it's very clear that webkit is winning on the small side of the hardware world, and on the big side, it's making big strides as well with Chrome. While I don't want to discourage discussion, I think taking one step back and wondering if Fennec is the right choice in the first place would be very appropriate...."
A compromise solution being considered is using Webkit to access the Web, then Fennec or some other as the standard browser. Once these details are cleared up and the source packages are ready, we can count on a first test version. If this can occur by end of March is questionable based on the ongoing discussion, so we'll likely hear more about it in April.

GETTING TIRED OF THIS CRAP! remember the mishap with the tru-ball release awhile back? well, it happened again today. with two other releases! its not a matter of bumping the trigger. finger is behind the trigger pushing forward til im ready to shoot. always is,has been,and will be. it happened with the release ive been using since the last problem i had. lost an arrow.So i switched to my back-up Tru-ball Stinger. and again. another mis-fire! at least i found that arrow. punched my self in the mouth twice in 5min. the Cheetah just about went airborne. but, i controlled myself. im SO pissed right now. i was warming up,getting ready to go on a real coon hunt. just found out today that theyre legal to actually hunt on farmlands when causing damage to crops or property. i was excited! then this BS!
im kinda thinking its got to be something with the d-loop material. has to be. what are the odds of # releases mis-firing while shooting the same bow? not bloody likely. seriously thinking about going back to shooting off the string. just dont want to do that,though. what alternatives are there? is there a thicker loop material i should use? uggghhhh!

California Highway Patrol officer Hector Davila said a Volkswagen Cabrio was traveling east on I-205 in the right lane of the three-lane highway just before noon, when witnesses said the vehicle drifted into the middle lane and sideswiped a pickup truck in the middle lane.
The car then veered back to the right, crossed over the right lane and went off the shoulder of the freeway and over a grass median and began to roll in the soft dirt until it stopped on its roof on the right shoulder of 11th Street.
Davila said the car rolled at least a "couple of times" but it's unclear exactly how many times.
The truck involved stopped a short distance away from the crash on I-205, and the driver uninjured.
Davila said the car came to stop on 11th Street off ramp about 1,500 feet from the entrance from I-205.
Tracy fire crews had cut the driver out of the vehicle. He was the only occupant of the car.
He was flown by helicopter to an area hospital with what the CHP described as "major injuries."
CHP Sgt. John Martinho said later that afternoon that officers were unable to find the man's driver's license at the scene.
Martinho said investigators are still trying to identify him as of Friday at 5:30 p.m. The officer noted that the driver is an Asian man who appears to be in his late 20s to early 30s.
The off ramp to 11th Street from I-205 was closed for about an hour as crews worked to free the driver and land the helicopter on the road.
Traffic on I-205 was also slowed as officers took measurements on the roadway.

text: I took my wife and son with me to Deer park, Washington to my local Archery Shop. It's about a 90 mile drive one way. The shop custom made a flemish string for my 1970's Browning cobra Recurve. While we were waiting for that bow being installed I also had my Rytera Nemesis tweaked to 60 pounds and I had them give it a thorough inspection and tune up for the upcoming September Mule deer hunt. I wanted to make sure all was well with her. I ended up buying a Scott Quick Shot release, Neet shooting glove, E.W Bateman and co. Bowstringer for the Recurve. While all of this was going on, I was watching my son checking out a Camo Genesis. The shop owner said " Shoot it!". He showed my son the Genesis and all the good stuff like anchoring, proper stance, Etc. About 5 minutes later my Son Gabriel was flinging Easton Arrows down range. Watching the grin from ear to ear after each shot got to me. I told him to pick a color out...he picked blue. Greg the shop owner set him up with 6 Easton arrow and I also bought him an arm guard and a matching blue Quiver. it's all set up for NASP. The same stuff they use in Competition. We'll be flinging arrows tomorrow!. Now I'm getting into shooting the Recurve. My son's previous bow was a Martin tiger. Today was a great day!.

I appreciate the help given here on the forum as I try to get this Shadowcat shooting like it should. I'd like to impose some more on their good nature.
Question: The cables are touching/rubbing below the cable rod. Is this normal?
Question: I was told by one Martin staff shooter that the position the SC likes best as far as the arrow plane is concerned is when half the burger hole is showing with an arrow in place. Does that sound right?
I really like the way this bow draws, but my arrows are scattered all over the place. I'm shooting Victory X Ringer 350's which is stiff for my 27.5 inch draw/50 pound draw weight. The rest is a Bodoodle 500.
Any suggestions will be taken into consideration and appreciated.
