Jealously eyed for possible role in murder-suicide
It takes years of training to get one's wings as a Navy pilot, and fighter-jet pilots are considered to be among the top in that group.
They undergo a battery of rigorous physical, psychological and background tests before finishing the highly competitive program. Their top-notch skills and mental toughness were featured in the movie "Top Gun" - parts of which were filmed at Miramar.
"I will tell you that Naval aviation will hurt regardless of what anybody finds out about anything because they're all close, because you go through a tough, rigorous kind of a ritual," said Ernie Christensen, a retired rear admiral who commanded the Navy's Top Gun fighter school for a time in the 1980s.

IBM's cognitive computing chip functions like a human brain, heralds our demise

Developed as part of a DARPA project called SyNAPSE (Systems of Neuromorphic Adaptive Plastic Scalable Electronics), IBM's so-called "neurosynaptic computing chip" features a silicon core capable of digitally replicating the brain's neurons, synapses and axons."

Plaid, the American word for tartan (and an incorrect usage of the word, if you're going to be a nudge about it), is a colorful pattern of interlocking stripes running in the warp and weft of a fabric. But while tartan was for a time outlawed in Scotland by the British government and today may represent a Scottish person's "clan", plaid is mostly just a handsome pattern for a hiking shirt or a wool tie. Or a dog bed. Or a pocket square. Perhaps even a suit. You'll find it on the golf course in Georgia and in a dive bar in Portland. Wear it right — in moderation — and you'll look dapper. Go overboard and you'll look like a dope. Do as we say, not as we do.

In an overdue analysis of his Saint Patrick's day bout against veteran Freddy Hernandez, a relevant question in boxing is where junior middleweight Julian Williams (15-0-1) belongs among junior middleweights. After an impressive 3rd round knockout on Golden Boy Live over Freddy Hernandez, "J Rock," spoke his mind essentially saying he was at a disadvantage from a promotional standpoint, partially because he didn't have a twin brother. This was a direct shot at twins Jermell & Jermall Charlo, both rising stars who are contending for titles. While Williams looked sharp on Saint Patricks Day, several questions glare.
First, what if he was in the ring against Canelo Alvarez? Aside from Floyd Mayweather who is truly a welterweight, Alvarez is considered the best junior middleweight on the planet right now. This is a view that is hard to argue after seeing Alvarez will his way against Alfred Angulo earlier this month. However, Alvarez has not faced the likes of Erislandy Lara, a name that also brings us back to Williams. Lara, an extremely talented Cuban who trains & lives in Houston, is arguably the number one contender to Alvarez. While Lara continues his climb, so do the Charlo brothers. So what about Williams?
In a simple conversation, you can see how quickly Williams name gets lost in the discussion. While he is certainly a threat to many junior middleweights, one might wish to see Williams handle the likes of Austin Trout or Ishe Smith (who is currently squared up for a May 2nd bout against Lara), first. Boxing can do without over hyped young stars, something that William is certainly not at this point. However, after defeating Hernandez, we can't be ready to christen Williams as a serious contender. The talent is unquestionably there and fans should look forward to what he will bring to the sport, but let the young man be tested.

With an annual turnover of €186.8 billion (around $200 billion), which represents one percent of the European Union's GDP, and employing more than 752,000 people, the European aerospace and defense industries play a key role in securing Europe's future.
GA Telesis has received the "Good to Great" award from the Greater Miami Chamber of Commerce. The regional award program honors companies based in South Florida that embody ideas from Jim Collins's bestselling business book Good to Great. The Good to Great Award highlights companies that have shown exceptional growth and development over a four-year period.
GA Telesis received the award for its double-digit growth and global expansion initiatives over the last few years, including the establishment of both GA Telesis Engine Services and GA Innovation China.
After filing a grievance, Flight Options pilot union leaders met late last week with representatives of the fractional providers' parent company, Directional Aviation Capital (DAC), and Flexjet, which DAC purchased late last year.
The European Parliament's transport committee today blocked the European Commission's proposals on flight and duty time limitations for commercial pilots flying within the European Union.
GA Telesis has acquired an inventory of new, overhauled, serviceable rotable and expendable material for the Bombardier Q400. The material is available for immediate purchase. All of the components are warehoused at the company's distribution center in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. GA Telesis can also support spare engine needs of Q400 operators.
Some Brazilian industry experts are convinced that criminalization will never improve aviation safety and they have been trying to persuade some the country's judges and prosecutors to accept this premise in the wake of contentious accidents such as the 2006 midair between an Embraer Legacy and an a Gol Airlines Boeing 737. A week-long course beginning on November 26 in the capital Brasilia focused on the pros and cons of criminalization before an audience of federal judges, prosecutors, aviation safety investigators and assorted military officers and lawyers.
Air China and GA Telesis have agreed to establish an Asia-based integrated spare parts supplier in China. After almost a year of planning, the companies have respective top management approvals to move forward with the formation of GA Telesis China (GATC), a joint venture based in China. The enterprise claims it will be the first aircraft part-out business and integrated full-scale redistribution stock list based in China covering the entire Asian market.
Groups as diverse as the three largest general aviation organizations and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce are calling on Congress to maintain the current FAA Block Aircraft Registration Request (Barr) program in pending FAA reauthorization legislation.
Revue Thommen, based in Waldenburg, Switzerland, is demonstrating its new HSL-1600 helicopter searchlight here at Heli-Expo. First production deliveries are slated for the second quarter. Pricing information is available at the Revue Thommen booth (No. 4108).

Rarewerks are what they say: rare works. Admittedly, all of the tracks are by artists you probably will have heard of in the last few years, unless you've been on an all-expenses paid trip with some Cosmonauts: Fatboy Slim, the Chemical Brothers, Air, the Beta Band, Primal Scream. If you're an electronica fan, the remaining names should be household mezuzah for you as well: Future Sound of London (FSOL), Cassius, Photek, Basement Jaxx. When I first saw the lineup, I thought I'd been gypped; I own just about everything these groups have released (or my sister does, which is more or less the same thing).
Take a deeper look, though, and you'll see that once again, Astralwerks delivers. Fatboy Slim's "Rockafeller Skank", played too often to make a listener anything but nauseous, is nowhere within earshot. "How Can You Hear Us?" is no second-string track; Astralwerks replaced "Skank" with this song on the international editions of Amp 2 (for legal reasons, but the fact that they chose it for such a massive selling title proves their faith in it). Unavailable on any of his full-length albums and seldom played publicly in the US -- especially in my local radio market, which needs a rescue tube for all the Lifehouse that's being played -- it's a nice change, with funky breaks, big beats and overdrawn loops. Air's "Casanova 70" paints a perfect picture of a '70s lounge lizard, from the velvet pants to the gold chest medallion; each note of the catchy synth-pop grabs you by the hips and makes you dance to its languid rhythm. It's the perfect cool-down between heavier beats, and it's only otherwise available on Premiers Symptomes.
Basement Jaxx's "Bingo Bango", given David Morales' Latin dub mix, is the precise soundtrack for getting your booty shaking out the bodega door. Cassius' remix of their own "Foxxy" brings the disco tune a new life with its looped female vocal roar, deep bass breakbeats and Blaxpoitation soundtrack overlays. The other songs here are equally entertaining, and most of them are at least nominally "new" -- either unreleased material, a hard-to-find remix or a song from a deleted single.
Compilations can, and frequently do, become a way for a label to repackage material that's readily available elsewhere, thereby creating a collection rarity for completists, and annoying the less rabid fans of the music. Astralwerks' celebration of their seventh anniversary is a party to which the fans have been invited. The label gets money, you get a decent compilation CD...in short, everybody wins.

Crème de Cacao (white) - 3/4 oz
Apricot Brandy - 3/4 oz
Cream - 3/4 oz
Layer in the order given in a pousse-café or shot glass.
Another layered shooter, sweet, creamy and disgusting. But maybe not for everyone, just pay more attention to the presentation.
Simple drink, pour in equal parts of everything, using the back of a spoon, layer apricot brandy above cacao, and then float the cream on top. The colour of crème de cacao wasn't specified in the Savoy Cocktail Book, and you might find some people using darker version, but I prefer using white crème de cacao, simply because just like apricot brandy, they are both translucent, giving that fun transition effect.

I was reminded today of how much I love Edward Bawden's linocuts. There's just something about them I find really beautiful. Maybe it's the colours or the fact that they tend to involve a lot of architecture I'm a fan of, who knows. Anyway, they're part of why I want to try out linocuts myself in some small way, even though I know it must take a lot of practice to get anywhere near this level. I can still try though.
I actually bought a card with the Covent Garden one on in it (the fifth image), as I like his work so much and wanted a small piece of it, even if it was only a reproduction. I should really get it framed or something sometime, although I'd have no idea where to put it.

www.persona.org →
We launched a site that better describes Persona, with the goal of having decent landing pages for developers and users.
Technology has greatly improved things this past decade. It's peculiar that messaging nonsense has seen so much work, but something that quite literally costs people money continues to be so flawed. I'm talking about credit cards. It's worth pointing out that I'm not a security researcher, just a concerned citizen.1
The flaw is a fundamental part of the design: for every charge, we must give the entire card number to the seller. That card number is everything. It gives all the information and power to charge as much money as the recipient wants. Holy carps. The sellers don't charge as much as they want, because that would be illegal, and they'd lose their merchant account. Still, employees could keep the number and sell it. Or, more likely, as sellers keep a record of the number, hackers can steal them, and get all the moneys. Until you notice, report fraud, and the banks just swallow it.
One supposed fix is the Swipe-and-PIN enhancement. This helps prevent copying of a card at a Point-of-Sale terminal. However, advances in magic (the Internet) have greatly increased the amount of online shopping. Want a new spiked collar for Fluffles? Just open your browser, and type in your credit card number. Nothing to worry about, I'm sure they won't record it. Oh what's that? An email from Exotic Collars that their database was hacked, and they actually did have your credit card. Time to call the bank, and fix up all your auto-billing subscriptions.
We can try to create rules around how to store credit cards, but just like passwords, it's really hard to do correctly. Also, just as with passwords, merchants should never receive such powerful information in the first place. A solution could be providing the merchant a one time use token authorized for a specific amount for a specific merchant. The merchant charges the token, and it then becomes useless. It's impossible to charge for more than agreed upon. Stealing the token is useless, because it only works for that merchant, it expires, and a credit account will only accept any token once.
If the source card or key which is used to generate tokens is compromised, a user can contact their credit provider, and generate a new private key. No merchants are affected, since they never had your key to begin with.
Recurring charges would be trickier. It'd require more cooperation among banks, standardizing some sort of unique account ID. Tokens could include the account ID, and merchants could safely hold onto that. When they need to make a new charge, they could request a new token for a certain amount. The user can approve the charge which sends a new token, or perhaps mark that a certain amount from a specific merchant every so often is auto-approved. I'm sure plenty of things could be done here to make the user experience easy. And there's incentives for as easy as possible: Easier means users will spend more.
Credit accounts could provide apps to their users to make sending and approving tokens easy from our phones. Additionally, the app could also optionally prompt for approval when a merchant charges a token, to ensure there was no mistake or the token wasn't somehow hijacked2.
I'm certain smarter people than myself could make a really secure design, but I'll entertain you by stumbling around with mine. The implementation could look something like Persona. The tokens passed around could be JWTs. It could follow something like these steps:
It would take a lot of work to move the world over to this system, but the end result should be much more secure. It should mean much less fraud, and much fewer stories like what recently happened with Target. Can we please do this?
We know that you should have a unique, sufficiently-long, sufficiently-randomized password for every property that requires one. We also know that if you most likely don't do this whatsoever. There's no way we're going to change users' habits. So this is the reason why we need to get rid of passwords.1
You may think the danger exists with someone guessing your password at your bank, or your email account. Instead, those websites have teams of professionals who spend their whole working day keeping out hackers. That's not where the danger starts. The danger starts at a tiny e-commerce site, or webforum, or other small-scale site. Some site where you'd think "I don't care if this account is stolen." Those are the dangerous sites. Even if you think your password is a pretty good one, because it doesn't contain any personalized information, and looks like gibberish: if you use the same password, then your password is as weak as the weakest site you use it at.
What really happens: a mom-and-pop shop that sells honey decides to sell more via a website, and has you log in to remember your shipping address. They're not security experts. They didn't hire any either. A hacker aims for sites like those. The hacker only has to get passed the minimal security of Honey Buns, to find a list of e-mails and passwords. Maybe the passwords aren't even hashed; they're just sitting there in plain text. You shouldn't be worried that the hacker can ship an insane amount of honey to your house. They wouldn't bother. Instead, they will take that list, and try each e-mail/password combo on important sites: Wells Fargo, Bank of America, Gmail, Paypal, etc. You used the same email and password on one of those sites as you did with Honey Buns? Then the hacker has just successfully logged in as you, and it mostly looks like a normal login. They then transfer money to their account, and carry on.2
I've been explaining this to anyone who has asked me about Persona and passwords, and figured it'd be nice to have it in a linkable quotable location. ↩
Of course, those sites try to protect against this too. They might notice the IP address is from a completely different part of the world. And they might prevent dangerous actions from that IP until you've confirmed another e-mail challenge. But the point still stands. ↩
The transition period was really tough for me. It felt like we were killing Persona. But more like tying a rope around it and dragging it behind us as we road tripped to Firefox OS Land. I first argued against this. Then, eventually I said let's at least be humane, and take off the rope, and put a slug in its head. Like an Angel of Death. That didn't happen either. The end result is one where Persona fights on.
Persona is free open source software, and has built up a community who agree that decentralized authentication is needed o the Internet. I still think Persona is the best answer in that field, and the closest to becoming the answer. And it's not going away. We're asking that the Internet help us make the Internet better.
In the meantime I'll be working on our Firefox Accounts system, which understandably could not rely entirely on Persona1. We need to keep Firefox competitive, since it's what pays for us to do all the other awesomizing we do. Plus, as the Internet becomes more mobile and more multi-device, we need to make sure there is an alternative that puts users first. A goal of Firefox Accounts is to be pluggable, and to integrate with other services on the Web. Why should your OS demand you use their siloed services? If you want to use Box instead of iCloud, we want you to use it.
How does this affect Persona? We're actually using browserid assertions within our account system, since it's a solved problem that works well. We'll need to work on a way to get all sorts of services working with your FxAccount, and it might include proliferating browserid assertions everywhere2. As we learn, and grow the service so that millions of Firefox users have accounts, we can explore easing them into easily and automatically being Persona users. This solves part of the chicken-egg problem of Persona, by having millions of users ready to go.
I'd definitely rather this have ended up differently, but I can also think of far worse endings. The upside is, Persona still exists, and could take off more so with the help of Firefox. Persona is dead, long live Persona!
Sync needs a "secret" to encrypt your data before it's sent to our servers. The easiest solution for users is to provide us a password, and we'll stretch that and make a secret out of it (so, we don't actually know your password). Persona doesn't give us passwords, so we can't use it. ↩
Where "browserid" assertions are accepted, Persona support can also be found. ↩
We launched a site that better describes Persona, with the goal of having decent landing pages for developers and users.
Since shifting to the Identity team last year, I've been working hard on making Persona a true solution to the login problem of the web. As I said then:
If we do our job right, eventually when my friends ask me what I do, I can say: I helped make it so you no longer need to use passwords everywhere. I helped make your online identity more secure. I helped make signing into the Internet awesomer.
We're getting closer.
Today, we're announcing to the world that our Gmail Identity Bridge is online. Excuse me. What? No, I'm fine. It's alright, it's actually quite simple.
The way Persona normally works, after checking to see if your email provider natively supports the protocol, is that Persona will fallback to what we call a secondary provider. This is the point where most users end up creating a password for Persona, and then going to their email to verify to us that they really own their email address. If the email provider did support the protocol, they would get sent over to them to authenticate, and we'd step out of the way.
So, we made an Identity Bridge that we host, and uses Google's OpenID endpoint to verify the user. The experience is pretty much exactly what it should feel like if there was native support from Google.
With both Gmail and Yahoo bridges online, over half of all users are just a couple clicks away from logging in with Persona.
So how does this affect you? If you have a website that has user accounts, you can switch to using Persona as your authentication system. In most cases, it should be a better experience for your users, and easier for you.
If you don't have a website, you can still help. Find a website you log in to frequently, and ask them to implement Persona. Tell them about this new bridging. Push for the change.
Soon, everyone will notice: we made signing into the Internet awesomer.
This means that every Gmail user can now sign into Persona-powered websites with just a few clicks using their existing account credentials. No new password required.
It lives!
Oh yeah! So excited about all this hard work the team has put in. And it feels so good to know I helped on these features:
Use your Existing Accounts. We've bridged yahoo.com, but of course we built an open system: any domain can now become a Persona Identity Provider so users can reuse their existing accounts on any site that uses Persona.
Built Into Firefox OS. We built in support for Firefox OS and made Persona much faster on all mobile devices. This gives Firefox OS apps an even better experience when using Persona.
I've always thought it'd be awesome if Google could use it's huge amount of data to make search results more powerful and tailored to us. This is a step in that direction.
And yet, what's the incentive to do this over the much larger install base of Facebook Connect? Also, looking at the documentation, it's still easier (and more inclusive!) to just use Persona.
I wrote a guest post for @davidwalshblog about how to get started using Persona.
The Identity Team has released Beta 1 of Persona:
For the past year Mozilla has been working on an experimental login system that completely eliminates passwords on websites while being safe, secure, and easy to use. Today we're casting off the "experimental" label and announcing the first "beta" release of Persona.
This super exciting1, and only the beginning. This step is letting website owners know that they can start using it reliably on their websites. We won't change the API.
Next steps include:
Yes, we hope to eventually remove ourselves from it all.
I may be a little biased. ↩

What happened to Mitrice Richardson? A recent college graduate, she was jailed briefly for trying to skip out on her dinner tab in Malibu, then freed in the middle of the night in a neighborhood far from home. She had no car, no ride, no phone, and no money. When she disappeared, it raised a flurry of questions about how the sheriff's department handled her case. The discovery of her body a year later only raised more.
the story is nominated for an American Society of Magazine Editors Award.
SMH, Boooooooooooooooooooooost. She used to frequent one of my favorite message boards. I did not know her, but other members there did. Others were very active in trying to help in the search and reached out to her family.
The sherif's dept has been suspicious from the beginning and have not been a reliable source for information.
My mom and I talk about this case constantly. Boost.
she was found w her clothes off to the side. in an area where cops are known to dispose of people (coz drugs are being grown there and they have $$$$ ties and no one answers to shit). everything in my gut tells me she was raped and killed by the police themselves. everything. EVERYTHING.

with study design. Because of the costs involved, considerable attention should be given to avoiding poor study design, eliminating unintentional bias, and standardizing data collection.
These studies depend on the willing participation of the public and many researchers have noted a growing reluctance to participate, especially in studies that involve genetic testing and the collection of biological materials. Some of this reluctance has been attributed to fears that results of these tests could be misused by employers and by health and life insurance companies to discriminate against those with existing or potential problems.
With implementation of regulations under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), other problems have emerged. The act was created for many reasons, among them to ensure the privacy and confidentiality of health information and make the transfer of health data more efficient. While the law was not intended to hinder research, it has changed the way health plans, clearinghouses, and providers handle personal health information and the way researchers share information.
The potential impact on research may prove far-reaching, especially on population-based research that requires broad and unbiased access to the medical records of health providers. The law also threatens the establishment of large databanks and makes it difficult to link data gathered in different institutions or to do studies that require long-term follow-up, which will be virtually impossible if all data have to be deidentified. While the Association of American Medical Colleges has established a network and database to monitor and document the impact of the law on research, uncertainty about the impact and interpretation of this very complex and lengthy law has already led to delays in research and has complicated the grant and contract process.
The concerns of committee members about the impact of this law, with its potential to impede efforts to improve the detection and diagnosis of breast cancer, led them to recommend that:
Professional societies should work together with women's health organizations to identify barriers to participation in studies (especially those that require provision of biologic specimens) and ways in which those barriers might be overcome. (Recommendation C2)
A public education campaign should be undertaken to inform the public, particularly under-represented groups, of the merit of participation in research studies that require the involvement of healthy volunteers and the donation of biologic specimens for genetic analysis.
Advocacy groups and women's health organizations should participate in design and execution of public education about clinical trials.


text: Alfred Lord Tennyson, 1st Baron Tennyson (1809-1892) was Poet Laureate of the United Kingdom and is one of the most popular English poets. Much of his verse was based on classical mythological themes. One of Tennyson's most famous works is Idylls of the King (1859), a series of narrative poems based entirely on King Arthur and the Arthurian tales. During his career, Lord Tennyson attempted drama, but his plays enjoyed little success even in his lifetime. His first publication entitled Poems by Two Brothers was published in 1827. He published his first solo collection of poems, Poems Chiefly Lyrical in 1830. In 1833, Tennyson published his second book of poetry, which included his well-known poem, The Lady of Shalott. In 1842 Tennyson published two volumes of Poems. The Princess, a satire of women's education, which came out in 1847, was also popular. It was in 1850 that Tennyson reached the pinnacle of his career, being appointed Poet Laureate until his death. Amongst his other works are Becket and Other Plays (1884) and Lady Clare (1884).

I usually ship at another online vendor, but since Parts Geek had the best prices on the shocks I needed, I ordered my parts from PG. I ordered my parts on January 7 and they arrived in California in good condition on January 13th. The box containing the heavy starter arrived beat up. The starter appears to be undamaged. Parts Geeks offers most replacements parts that I need. Service is quick, prices are low. I haven't used the customer, so I don't know about that. I surmise customer is good considering the intense competition on the internet. I recommend Parts Geek to anyone looking for quality parts at low prices.

Kenojuak Ashevak: Birds
Kenojuak Ashevak (1927 – 2013) is regarded as one of the pioneers of modern Inuit art. For decades, she worked out of the West Baffin Eskimo Co-operative studio, drawing alongside other renowned Inuit artists. Related prints and drawings were distributed by the co-op's Toronto marketing office Dorset Fine Arts, and by national and international dealers.
Along the way, Ashevak gained wide renown, having her art featured on postage stamps multiple times, as well as on Canadian coins. She completed a mural for the 1970 World's Fair in Tokyo; received honorary doctorates from Queen's University and the University of Toronto; earned a star on Canada's Walk of Fame; and, in 2008, received the Governor General's Award in Visual and Media Arts.
In recent years Ashevak didn't just continue with the creation of prints, she worked from home, designing a stained-glass work in 2004 and moving into a new medium, large-scale drawing.

The mercy of God
Sermon shared by Adrian Reynolds
July 2003
Summary: A short series on God�s character as shown in the psalms - Psalm 86 focusing on the mercy of God.

When it comes to your relationship to God as an individual, to our relationship with God as a church, what would you say is our greatest need? What is it, above anything else that we need as we approach God? What is at the top of the list for prime importance? I will tell you, because I know the answer! It is mercy. Mercy. It is to be looked upon by God, not as we deserve to be looked upon, but looked upon favourably. That is what mercy is. It is a greater need than any other. Because without it, we can never ever come close to God � we can never ever seek his face, we can never ever depend upon him and call him our Father. We need mercy.
Mercy is at the heart of the Christian faith. Listen to what Paul says about our salvation in Ephesians 2.4. �But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions�it is by grace you have been saved.� God is not just merciful � he is rich in mercy.
Mercy is a word we bandy around. We use it often in our prayers. We sing it in our hymns and songs. I started to look through Praise! and count the number of items there that include the word � but I soon lost count. Then I looked through the Psalms � 27 of the psalms focus on God�s mercy and our need of it. But I guess that if we use it so often it is either a word we understand very well � an aspect of God�s character that we fully grasp, or one which is simply another piece of jargon.
Jargon is a great hindrance to us. This week I installed a new drive on my computer. It was a DVD+-RW drive which needed to be connected to the master IDE socket number 2 and the old drive reset to the slave IDE number 2. That all sounds very clever and knowledgeable � but I haven�t the faintest idea what it means! Beware using jargon � let�s make sure we understand, we grasp, even if we have understood, we appreciate, what we are singing and talking and praying about.
So, then, if it is of such great importance, then as we consider the character of God, which, remember is what we have been doing, we certainly need to think about God�s mercy. That makes sense. So far we have considered God as the Creator � the one who is far above the heavens and put everything in its place. What power, what might and majesty the creation displays.
Then we considered the Kingship of God � how he rules and reigns with supreme authority and wisdom throughout the Universe. But how can we come to such a one. How can we have a relationship with him? Only by his mercy.
Now, this psalm is packed full of God�s character. At first that might seem surprising. After all, David is in trouble. Look at verse 14. We do not know exactly what sort of difficulty he is in, but it certainly seems to be some sort of physical danger. However, his appeal to God is not based so much on the trouble he is in, but on God�s character.
When the chips are down, David does not, in his prayers, spend time explaining to God the intricacies of all that is going on � he appeals to his character. He does that because he realises that apart from God�s character, and in particular his mercy, he is unable to approach the throne. He needs mercy, in fact, more than anything. That is one of his very first pleas in verse 3. Well, we�re going to concentrate on verses 5, 6 and 7 to understand more about God�s

Anyone Out There? 71 Percent of Tweets Get No Response
Do you feel like your Twitter followers aren't always listening? Well, that's because you're probably right.
A new study from social media analytics company Sysomos revealed that 71 percent of all tweets get no response from others in the tweetosphere.
The company scanned 1.2 billion messages that were sent in August and September 2009 to gauge the type of interaction happening on Twitter. In response, the study indicated that a whopping seven out of ten tweets never receive a response or reply from others.
In fact, only six percent gets resent or "retweeted."
The chances of a retweet happening is most likely to occur within a small window of time – 92.4 percent happen within the first hour of the original tweet being published. An additional 1.63 percent of retweets happen in the second hour and 0.94 percent occur in the third.
"Replies" follow a similar pattern. About 96.9 percent of @ replies happen within the first hour of the original tweet being published, while an additional 0.88 percent of replies happen in the second hour. After that, reply activity dramatically declines.

Tibetan PM goes down memory lane
It was a trip down memory lane for Tibetan Prime Minister-in-exile Lobsang Sangay here in Himachal Pradesh Friday as he released a biography of Takna Jigme Sangpo, the longest-incarcerated Tibetan political prisoner in China.
"I feel honoured to launch the biography of Takna Jigme Sangpo. Since my time as an activist during my college years in Delhi, I have heard of Sangpo's incarceration in Drapchi Prison (in Lhasa, Tibet) and drawn inspiration from his heroic activism," Sangay said at the book launch function.
Sangpo was released on medical grounds March 31, 2002, after serving more than three decades behind bars.
Sangay, the democratically elected leader of the Tibetan people, said Sangpo undertook various political activities even from within the prison.
"One significant protest was during the visit of Swiss human rights officials to Drapchi in 1992, when Sangpo raised slogans of Tibetan freedom, before he was subdued by Chinese officials."
"Through him, I pay my respects to all the former political prisoners and those suffering under Chinese occupation in Tibet," added Sangay, who was once dubbed a "terrorist" by China because of his earlier association with the Tibetan Youth Congress, the largest group of exiles.
Sangay said there were reasons for releasing the biography, one being a speech by the Dalai Lama.
"In that speech, His Holiness urged older generation of Tibetans to put their experiences in writing. If you don't record the sacrifices and sufferings, there is a chance that your sacrifices might gradually fade into oblivion," Sangpo recalled the Nobel Peace laureate as saying in that speech to mark the 28th anniversary of the Tibetan uprising.
The Dalai Lama has lived in India since fleeing his homeland in 1959. The Tibetan exile administration is based in this northern Indian hill town.

Without question, and for totally different reasons, the majority of the focus leading up to Super Bowl 48 was on Seattle Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman and Denver Broncos QB Peyton Manning.
For the still young Sherman, he brought the attention all upon himself with his post-game rant on San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Michael Crabtree following the NFC Championship Game.
In Manning's case, his attention wasn't really something that he asked for, necessarily. With his legendary career winding down and more people focusing on his failures in the postseason rather than his accomplishments, the talk was all about where his "legacy" stood, should he and the Broncos lose this game.
Well, they in fact did lose, and in a big way as the Seahawks throttled Manning and company, 43-8, on Sunday night. And Manning himself particularly didn't play his best, throwing two interceptions on the evening.
Still though, despite many thinking that he may be one of the more arrogant people in the world after such a big victory, Sherman went out of his way to throw some praise Manning's way.
Peyton is the Classiest person/player I have ever met! I could learn so much from him! Thank you for being a great Competitor and person
— Richard Sherman (@RSherman_25) February 3, 2014
Then to add to it even more, he urged those naysayers not to throw any shade in Manning's direction.
There is no reason to bash him on here please Seattle let's just enjoy this one!!!! He is still a Future HOF player
— Richard Sherman (@RSherman_25) February 3, 2014
A classy move from the much-maligned Sherman, indeed.
