PARIS (July 28, 2013)—An estimated $53 million worth of jewels has been stolen from the Carlton Intercontinental Hotel in Cannes, France, which was hosting a temporary jewelry exhibit, police said.
A police spokesman says one or more thieves nabbed the jewels in broad daylight at around noon Sunday in the French Riviera city.
The spokesman could not say how many thieves were involved in the heist, or confirm if it was an armed robbery.
The spokesman requested anonymity because he was not authorized to discuss the matter on the record.

I have some .pdf files that I would like to convert to my preferred reading format of .cbr or .cbz or, if this isn't directly possible, I need to extract all pages from the .pdf as images and then compress them into my format of choice. I have only been able to save pages one at a time with Document Viewer. Obviously, I'd like to do it a little quicker. I have tried pdfsam, pdf shuffler, and pdfmod all with no luck. I am using Ubuntu 11.10.
OK well, I did some more research and although tohuwawohu's method does work, I found it easier to use a program called pdftoppm to achieve what I wanted done. Since I am pretty much a layperson when it comes to using command line apps, I will do my best to explain how I got this to work for me.
Hopefully what I have posted above makes enough sense that someone else can learn from it. If I need to change it in any way please let me know.
Try using calibre to directly convert the .pdf to .cbr or .cbz.
I'm not very familiar with *.cbr / *.cbz, but it seems you'll have to combine two steps:
Regarding step 1, you could use ImageMagick's
(credits regarding the
As a result, you get
You could even combine both steps by "concatenating" them:
(make sure that there aren't any other JPEGs in your current working directory, since using the code above, zip will move all JPEGs into the cbz file)
I have written a simple bash script for exactly this purpose, you will need poppler installed, so:
Here is the bash script (save it as convert_to_cbz.sh):
To use the bash script:
Hopefully this will be useful for someone!
It seems that the easiest way is using Acrobat Pro.
If you prefer a CBR file, rar the folder instead of zipping it, then change the extension from .rar to .cbr.

NEW YORK -- Toll Brothers Inc. said its fiscal fourth-quarter net income soared, helped by a large income tax benefit and a 48 percent rise in revenue.
The luxury homebuilder delivered more homes and its order backlog increased.
CEO Douglas C. Yearley Jr. said in a statement on Tuesday that higher home prices, low interest rates, pent-up demand and improving consumer confidence prompted buyers to return to the housing market this year.
Last week a batch of government reports showed that rising home values, more hiring and lower gas prices pushed consumer confidence in November to the highest level in nearly five years.
And on Thursday an index from the National Association of Realtors that measures the number of Americans who signed contracts to buy homes in October jumped to nearly its highest level in almost six years.
For the three months ended Oct. 31, Toll Brothers Inc. (NYSE: TOL) earned $411.4 million, or $2.35 per share. That's up sharply from $15 million, or 9 cents per share, a year ago.
The latest quarter included an income tax benefit of $350.7 million, but the company didn't provide an estimate in its news release of how that affected its earnings per share.
Revenue increased to $632.8 million from $427.8 million, topping Wall Street's forecast of $565.1 million.
Homebuilding deliveries climbed 44 percent to 1,088 units, while net signed contracts jumped 70 percent to 1,098 units. The average price of homes delivered increased to $582,000 from $565,000 a year earlier.
Toll Brothers, based in Horsham, Pa., may benefit by catering to the luxury sector.
Its target market includes households that typically make more than $100,000 a year, can afford to make a down payment of as much as 30 percent, have great credit record and an unemployment rate about half that of the general population.
Backlog, a measure of potential future revenue, rose 54 percent to 2,569 units. The cancellation rate declined to 4.6 percent from 7.9 percent.
The company's full-year net income jumped to $487.1 million, or $2.86 per share, from $39.8 million, or 24 cents per share, a year earlier. Annual revenue climbed 27 percent to $1.88 billion from $1.48 billion.
Toll Brothers anticipates delivering between 3,600 and 4,400 homes in 2013 at an average price of $595,000 to $630,000 per home.
Its shares dropped 57 cents to close at $31.86 Tuesday. Its share peaked for the past year at $37.08 in mid-September.
The company has operations in Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas, Virginia and Washington

I am having a problem with accessing events from within WordPress admin. Previously I could see options for adding events under the "Events" menu item. Now the only options I see are "Settings" and "Help".
I am logged in as the super admin, and I have only used Event Manager from this account. I have also tried deactivating/reactivating the plugin, but it did not solve the problem.
All the events still come through on the front-end, it's just from inside the WordPress admin they cannot be edited (or added).
Any ideas what could cause this to happen? I am using the latest version of WordPress and the plugin (184.108.40.206). I only have a few other plugins installed: bbPress, BuddyPress, and WP Editor.

I got mine 2 days after my Kindle, and it's made a nice resting place for my Kindle when not in use.
I certainly don't see any creases or obvious defects in workmanship like some other reviewers have claimed. The leathery handle material tends to pick up some finger grease occasionally, but that comes off easily with a cloth. While I can't say it's made of the most amazing material or quality, it's certainly comparable to many other sleeves. It beats the $5 - 10 eBay sleeves I've gotten for other devices, by far. I can't understand why people are leaving such negative reviews, that $30 is too much for something like this, especially when they clearly could see what it looked like in the product images (did you forget to zoom?) before purchasing. What I got was exactly as pictured and described, and I have very little room for complaints about the quality.
I don't know what everyone else is smelling, but we're either all old here, have stuffy noses from seasonal allergies, or I just got a different batch than everyone else. I can smell the new plastic scent when I hold the sleeve directly in my face, but it's not overpowering at all. It's certainly magnitudes less of a scent than a new car, a new printer, etc. I didn't even notice it until I read the reviews. Your mileage may vary, depending on just how sensitive your nose is. Just know that if you get one from the same batch as mine, it's on par (or less) as most other electronics out there.
I'm a bit concerned about the relatively small margin between the device and the zipper. I'm afraid I'm going to not put the Kindle in far enough, and have the zipper scratching up the sides.Read more ›

Electronics cases are a weird industry; most of them are relatively basic pieces of foam, neoprene or various plastics and cost a lot compared to what they are. Electronic device cases are kind of a necessary 'evil' in some ways.
That said I'm still pleased with this case. Yes, it was thirty bucks but I do appreciate that it's a classy looking thing. I have the charcoal version, with the honey 'leather' strap and it's very tweed-like. Yeah, it smelled a bit when I first unwrapped it but that smell is gone 3-days later (I've had laptop bags that were waaaay worse. Like stinking up my entire apartment ...)
The protection is adequate and I like how it zips only 1/2 of the way open (an "L-shaded" zipper) which makes it difficult for the Fire to slip out of the bottom as you unzip it. It's also nice and snug so the overall package is not too bulky.
All in all, I'm pleased that this bag is a nice presentation. Usually I don't care about this stuff as I just want protection when I throw my electronics in my backpack. But this case merits being left on my desk for all to see ...
PS: Many people seem not to know about AmazonBasics. I'd advise doing a search here on Amazon for that term and you'll see all of Amazon's house-brand cables, cases, CD-r and so forth. This is relevant as they make several generic neoprene cases for all sorts of electronics. Often time you can avoid the major brand names if you just want a simple case, even one that might be an inch too big, as you transport your devices to and from work or school. AmazonBasics have always been super good bargains, in general. Just a random example; not saying this is proper for a Fire necessarily but to give you an idea of what I'm talking about: B002VPE1Q6

Does the Kindle Fire Zip Sleeve smell? Yes. Mine arrived today, and as other reviewers have shrieked to the blackened skies of woe, there's a light-to-medium plastichemical odor.
Dealbreaker? Perhaps for some. Maybe my sense of smell has dulled a smidge over the years, but there's no way the sleeve's emanations will permeate a household, car, bus, bedroom, insert-enclosed-space here. After removing mine from the packaging, I parked it on my front porch in the fresh air for a couple of hours, and the scent is mostly diminished. I'm fairly confident the remaining odor will dissipate over time, but if it doesn't, I'm reasonably sure it's not going to induce mid-40s limb deformities. If you're overly sensitive to these types of odors, you'll probably want to save yourself the hassle and find something constructed from different materials.
Yes, it's expensive. I knew that when I bought it. I certainly wouldn't condemn the sleeve to an asinine 1-star review based on its price. You *were* there when you clicked "Place Your Order", right? If the current release-time price is a dealbreaker, the solution is quite simple. Wait for the price to drop, or buy something else. Empowered purchasing, no?
The Zip Sleeve is reasonably well-constructed and forms a nice snug fit around the Kindle Fire. The interior, as other reviewers have noted, is sufficient for protecting and cushioning the tablet. The zipper enclosure is solid. The color scheme is appealing, and the Amazon branding isn't obtrusive. I've had bad and good tablet and smartphone cases, and the Zip Sleeve falls in the upper 20% as far as form factor, usability, and construction go. I'll rate it here the same: 4/5.
Thank you for your feedback.

Our largest room looking out on to the park, with a separate entrance, new Memory Foam overlay queen bed, and an extra wide single bed and a comfortable armchair with ottoman. Three adults can sleep in comfort. More of Ed's dad's art work on the walls. He was a man of many talents. He made looms and spinning wheels, lassoes and lace and even worked on the atomic bomb in Oak Ridge Tennessee.
The Paris Room has its own ensuite bathroom. Remember to take short showers, as Ardrossan is dependent on rainwater. You can drink it, just don't waste it. See the buckets to save the shower water for the garden? Plants like rain water much better than the bore water. Just tip the buckets on the garden out your door. See, you are doing your bit to help conserve Australia's water. I hope you are doing this back home!
Just down the hallway is the library. Here you will find a round table and chairs and hundreds of books and games.
The door to your right is the laundry/kitchenette with a fridge to cool your milk, beer and wine, a jug for tea and coffee. Open the cupboard and you will find the cups, tea and coffee, sugar etc. The milk is in the fridge. How about a welcoming cuppa? Open the biscuit barrel and help yourself. There is a big bowl of fruit to tempt you too. Notice the two terrific pieces of handmade stained glass. The kitchenette is equipped with sink, microwave, cutlery, crockery and wine glasses. We have made the laundry a combined kitchen/laundry so guests can prepare small meals. More self contained if we have one couple or two couples who know one another. Help yourself if you need to iron something to wear for a night on the town with your friends as an ironing board is provided. Here is the sink where you can wash cups and glasses.
Walk out on to the verandah and relax into one of the extra comfortable chairs for a read. Maybe a soak in the heated spa or a swim later if the weather is warm enough. The pool is solar heated and open from October to May. The grapevine covered verandah is usually warm enough for sitting out most of the year.
Come into the guest dining room. Would you mind terribly removing your shoes on this white carpet? I know, what were we thinking? The house was unfinished double brick when we bought it and very dark, so trying to lighten it, we added this carpet which is rather hard to keep clean with all the wildlife outside. This dining table belonged to Susan's mum and dad. The buffet on the left was made by Ed's dad in 1935, as well as our dining room table and the four poster new Memory foam queen bed in the Tapestry room. See the wrought iron surrounding the paintings of Australian native birds? And the wrought iron mirror and firescreen featuring Adam and Eve? All done by Susan's dad who with her mum and Susan moved to Mudgee as the veterinary inspector in 1961. Lots of antiques here in your guest sitting room. The bears are part of Susan's Vermont Teddy Bear collection. Only mother bear could get away with wearing that mink complete with head and claws! Her babies are snug in a 1776 cradle that still has the old milk paint on it. The fireplace features a jetmaster woodburning insert. Here you can relax with a glass of wine and watch the TV or one of our dvds, videos or listen to some CDs. We hope you will enjoy them as we do. We have added the reverse cycle airconditioners to every room as the cleanest and most convenient way to heat and cool the b&b. Please turn off the lights and the airconditioner when you go to bed.
More Vermont teddy bears at the front door of the bed and breakfast sitting on the Spanish lounge. Open the front door and you will find the path to the parking area and the parklike garden where the ibis and kangaroos often roam.
Lets show you the rest of the bed and breakfast.

Middle English: from Old French juge (noun), juger (verb), from Latin judex, judic-, from jus 'law' + dicere 'to say'.
The word judge, recorded in English since the Middle Ages, looks back to a Latin word based on jus 'law' (the source also of just (Late Middle English), justice (Old English), injury (Late Middle English)), and dicere 'to say'. Judges are often thought of as solemn and impressive figures, and the expression sober as a judge goes back to the 17th century, with sober originally meaning 'serious, grave' rather than 'not drunk'.

GoPro Hero3 Black Edition review
sensor, 800x480 (240fps), 720p (60fps, 120fps), 1080p (24fps, 30fps, 48fps, 60fps), 4K Cinema (12fps), 0.0x zoom, 76g
The GoPro Hero3 Black Edition is the last-generation GoPro action camera that has since been replaced by the GoPro Hero4 that introduced 4K/30fps video. Still, if you're not in need of a 4K action camera, it remains a solid choice. The Hero3 Black Edition is no longer available unless you find old stock, but you can still buy the updated GoPro Hero3+ White Edition now for around £150 and the Silver Edition for £210. These put the more entry-level Hero3+ models as competition for action cameras such as the Drift Innovation Stealth 2 but the GoPro Hero3+ Silver still has the edge when it comes to frame rate. While the Stealth 2 only manages a maximum recording resolution of 1080p at 30fps, the Silver can achieve 1080p at 60fps for smoother footage and is now only fractionally more expensive, making it the better choice if you're not looking to spend a lot for an action camera.
The camera's not weatherproof, so you'll need to use the case
With three different models of the Hero3 available, the first, and probably most significant, thing to take notice of is the difference in sensor sizes between the three Hero3 cameras. The Black Edition has the largest sensor, at 1/2.3in, so GoPro claims it will perform better in low light. The Black Edition is also capable of taking 12-megapixel photos. The Silver Edition has a smaller 1/2.7in sensor and can take 11-megapixel still images, while the cheapest White Edition can only take 5-megapixel snaps but, strangely, has a larger 1/2.5in sensor than the Silver Edition.
There are also some significant differences in the video formats each model supports. All models can record 30fps at 1080p resolution video, which is perfect for YouTube, as well as smoother 60fps 720p footage. However, the more expensive Black Edition can also record 1080p video at 60fps, and 720p video at 100fps in case you want to slow your footage down in your video editor. It also supports 4K Cinema video at 12fps, but we're not convinced how useful this is; in our tests there's not a huge amount of quality difference between 4K and 1080p footage even on a 4K 84in screen.
There's also a difference between what the cameras can do with still photos. The top model can shoot burst photos at up to 30fps, while the Silver and White editions make do with 3fps and 10fps respectively. The cameras can all capture time-lapse photos at various intervals.
All this adds up to a seriously versatile set of action cams. We'd be tempted to go for the cheaper White Edition, as 1080p 30fps is enough for most needs, but as we only tested the Black Edition we can't vouch for the video quality of the cheaper models.
There are recording lights on three of the camera's sides, so you always know when you're capturing footage
The Hero3 is well designed and easy to use. The button on the front turns the camera on and scrolls through the various menus on the small LCD screen, while the button on the top selects options in the menus and starts recording. While the camcorder is recording, red LEDs flash on the front, bottom and top, so you always know when you're capturing footage. The only thing we didn't like was the plastic flap covering the Mini USB, Micro HDMI and microSD card slots, as this is small and easy to lose.
The ports are covered by an easy-to-lose rubber flap
Unlike already-toughened models such as the Contour Roam2, the bare GoPro Hero3 isn't tough or waterproof and has no mount point, so you always use it in the provided waterproof (to 60m) and toughened cover. This has a power button on the front and record button on the top, though, so it's easy to use without taking it out of the case.
All three camera models come with seriously sticky curved and flat mounts. The Black Edition also comes with a 3-way pivot arm, which lets you mount the camera facing pretty much any way you please. There are also plenty of accessories available at GoPro's website, from the £15 Head Strap to the £30 Suction Cup, to a £50 Wrist Housing and £30 Bar Mount.

DescriptionWith the original Sensible Soccer having sold hugely, this updated version was released some months later (and then used as the basis for the later console versions). The teams are updated, with the sides present in the 92-93 European tournaments included, and the player names updated to take transfers into account.
The game was tidied up and changed in a number of areas. The most significant change is the addition of red and yellow cards for discipline (2 yellow card offenses or one 'professional foul' (denying your opponent a clear goal-scoring opportunity) results in that player being sent off). The goalkeepers have been improved in skill, and the 1994 World Cup Qualifying tournament was added.

Taking an unjustifiable dismissal case to the Employment Relations Authority has backfired for an former IBM employee who has been ordered to pay his former employer $4000.
Andrew Simpson was employed by IBM from July 1996 until he resigned in August 2013.
He claimed he was unjustifiably dismissed by the company and that his employment was disadvantaged.
IBM denied Mr Simpson's claims and counter-claimed he breached the terms and conditions of his employment.
Mr Simpson had progressed through various positions during his time with IBM and was told by a manager in 2010 that he was on a development list for future IBM leaders.
However, in November 2012, he told his manager he was considering a job offer with another company, saying in an email "I do not feel that I am being fairly awarded for the investment of time I make", the ERA decision said.
A salary alignment process was discussed among management but Mr Simpson was then told there had been a freeze on all salary increases.
Mr Simpson said if he had not had a commitment from IBM to increase his salary, he would have left for alternative employment. He claimed a manager had promised to increase his annual salary to $180,000, according to the ERA.
The following June, Mr Simpson took a photo with his cellphone of a conversation on his manager's computer discussing his performance in negative light.
He told the authority he was concerned IBM wanted him out of the business and sent a letter to the company's HR manager, outlining his concerns.
A meeting was then held to discuss his grievances, during which Mr Simpson produced the photo as evidence. However, when his managers asked how the image was obtained, he refused to answer, the authority heard.
Due to his refusal, Mr Simpson's managers were concerned he may have used malicious software to infiltrate his manager's laptop and invoked a potential security breach protocol - suspending Mr Simpson's access to email and the intranet, the ERA was told.
Mr Simpson told the authority that following the meeting he had lost all trust and confidence in IBM. He then obtained employment with another company and resigned.
When IBM examined his computer after engaging a third party to override his password, Mr Simpson's managers discovered a large amount of inappropriate material, including personal images, secret recordings of conversations between management, illegally downloaded films and music and unauthorised software, according to the ERA decision.
According to the determination, Mr Simpson accepted during the investigation meeting that he had breached his business conduct guidelines.
However, in relation to the inappropriate material which had been discovered on his IBM laptop, he stated that the personal images were personal photographs which had been transferred inadvertently from a Blackberry device, and that he had deleted the illegally downloaded movies which had been sent to him.
Authority member Eleanor Robinson determined that Mr Simpson was not unjustifiably dismissed, nor disadvantaged, but found Mr Simpson breached employment and confidentiality agreements by failing to return company property to IBM on the termination of his employment.
"I accept that the personal images on Mr Simpson's laptop may have been placed there inadvertently and may not have offended anyone at IBM during the course of his employment; however I find that it was a breach of the BCG core values that IBM assets, which includes physical property such as a laptop "should only be used to conduct IBM business or for purposes authorised by IBM management", Ms Robinson said.
Ms Robinson ordered IBM to pay Mr Simpson a $500 penalty for failing to communicate the outcome of his annual salary review in a timely manner but also ordered Mr Simpson to pay IBM $4000 in respect of the counterclaims made by the company.

Hello. I run a site (http://blogchaat.com) where Guest Authors often post. Since they are given IDs, they are automatically notified of comments on their post by the notification email. However, I want to customize that email to show ONLY the Comment Author's name and the comment text. I do NOT want the Comment Author's email, IP, etc. to be revealed. Please tell me how I can do this.
PS: The site runs on WP 2.0.4
I checked out Scott Reilly's Notification Disabler plugin which says that something like this can be achieved by editing the comment-functions.php file in wp-includes folder. But when I opened the file, the code I found there was very different from what he'd described, so I was unable to figure anything out. Details of the hack are here.

The conservative group Heritage Action announced Monday that it will punish lawmakers on its annual scorecard if they vote in favor of an $8.2 billion water infrastructure bill coming to the House floor this week.
Heritage said the bipartisan deal announced last week on the Water Resources Reform and Development Act does not do enough to cut spending on ports, levees, beaches and rivers.
"Broadly, it hikes spending while doing little to reduce bureaucracy and limit the role of the federal government," spokesman Dan Holler said.
Because Speaker John BoehnerJohn BoehnerClinton maps out first 100 days The Hill's 12:30 Report Boehner on Cruz: 'Lucifer is back' MORE (R-Ohio) can count on Democratic support for the bill, it is expected to pass despite defections linked to Heritage Action opposition.

I have installed Ruby and Gems and also installed VMC following the documentation on the cloudfoundry website. I could deploy a simple hello world application successfully. Several commands seem to work fine. However, few commands just fail and I have no clue why. When I run the following command:
vmc instances hellor 3
I get an error: Unknwon app '3'
When I just run:
vmc instances hellor It retrieves the instance fine and displays it without any error. But, when I specify a number after that to increase the instances, it just seem to treat that number as an appname and gives me error. What could be the reason. I could not find anyone else facingup this issue on any of the forums. Any help on this will be highly appreciated. I am deploying on cloudfoundry.com

I am trying KdenLive for the first time, it seems quite nice and I started a project.
In this project I edited a image to get a transparent background (with the grey squares) and exported it to png(tried other formats too).
Then I imported it to the clips (with the transparent background cheked), but when I put it into the timeline on the top track it shows a black background and not the track bellow as I expected (sometimes a white background when I did experiences with gimp).
Anyone knows want I am doing wrong?
I am using Kdenlive 0.9.2 on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. Hardware is a Dell Inspiron 1420 laptop.
My project is using HD 1080p 25 fps clips in MPEG-2 M2T format (video only, no sound) which were generated in Kdenlive from historic WWI-era low-resolution clips and dubbing them with an audio file. The parameters as shown in the Render dialog when creating these clips were as follows:

I just realized it would be really nice and very useful to have a colour grading effect in Kdenlive. Colour grading is used to automatically get all of the clips in a movie to get the same colour tone.
Don't really know much about the math but in most other applications it works by selecting the darkest and brightest spots in each two clips.
Just thought it would be a really nifty idea.
I wanted to check this issue on the forum before I reported it as a bug. I'm using various GIT builds of Kdenlive 0.9.3 and I can't seem to get the titling effects to work as I would expect. If I just do static titles then everything works as expected, if I try the 'typewriter' effect then when I import the created title on to the timeline it will only type the first letter, if I go back and open the title dialog again and simply highlight my title and click 'OK' then the typewriter effect displays on the timeline when previewing but then the letters are typed sporadically and often the words are not completely typed in the Rendered project even when the title is plenty long to accomodate the number of letters.
I imported a video from Mini DV tape to iMovie HD on Mac osX (snow leapord) only to find out that some of the faces in the picture were overexposed throughout the 60 minute program. Is it possible to fix or adjust the dv file's exposure with this software so it can be usable? Thanks in advance for any advice.
Hi there.
I'm still fairly new to editing but as I try to play back my project, the project monitor becomes very slow through transitions - Particularly composite.
The behaviour is identical to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jemvS942IJY, (though that's not my video).

Vietnam in HD (2011– )
Episode List
Season 1
6 Nov. 2011The Beginning
Vietnam in HD looks at the early months of the Vietnam war from the escalation following the Gulf of Tonkin incident to the grim fighting of the Battle of Ia Drang where a few hundred American soldiers are pinned down by three battalions of North Vietnamese infantry. Using superior air power and reinforcements, the Americans fight the North Vietnamese to a draw.
7 Nov. 2011Search and Destroy
American troops launch widespread "search and destroy" operations; body count, not territory, becomes the measure of success in Vietnam. Charles Brown fights for survival on the bloody slopes of Hill 875 and at home, the American public begins to question U.S. military strategy.
8 Nov. 2011The Tet Offensive
The enemy gains ground when the massive Tet Offensive catches the Americans by surprise. At Khe Sanh and Pleiku, U.S. troops are under siege. Americans mount a counteroffensive but the shock of the assault ignites anti-war fervor at home.
9 Nov. 2011An Endless War
The turmoil of 1968 helps Nixon win the presidency. Troop strength in Vietnam peaks and the draft accelerates. Karl Marlantes endures bitter jungle fighting on Hill 484, and draftee Arthur Wiknik gets a grim introduction to combat on "Hamburger Hill". But shortly after "winning" both hills, US troops abandon them.
10 Nov. 2011Changing War
Troop withdrawals begin as the Americans train their ARVN allies to take over the war. Gery Benedetti patrols the hostile waters of the Mekong Delta. James Anderson leads a battalion into Cambodia after Nixon's controversial order. Don DeVore struggles to survive a fierce night attack, and Anne Purcell gets promising news about her husband.
10 Nov. 2011Peace with Honor
Bob Clewell's helicopter crew comes under intense fire in one of the final operations of the war. Joe Galloway returns to Vietnam and in Washington, D.C., Barry Romo throws down his medals in protest. The last American troops return home and POW wife Anne Purcell awaits word of her husband's fate. The fall of Saigon brings the unification of Vietnam.
Season 1

VATICAN CITY U.S. President Barack Obama heard the Catholic Church's concerns over his health care plan while on a visit to the Vatican on Thursday, but drew a cheerful response from Pope Francis when inviting him to visit Washington.
The president appeared at ease and joked during the parts of his meeting with the pope that were open to a few reporters, but a brief Vatican statement issued later indicated that Obama's private talks there had a more serious side.
The statement said Obama, who was accompanied by Secretary of State John Kerry, was told of the Vatican's concern about "the exercise of the rights to religious freedom, life and conscientious objection" in the United States.
This was a reference to the mandate in Obama's controversial health care plan which requires employers to cover the cost of contraception in insurance plans.
Catholics and members of other religions say the mandate, which is the subject of more than 100 law suits across the United States, is a violation of their beliefs because it forces them to support contraception and sterilization.
Obama later told a news conference in answer to a question that the pope "did not touch in detail" on the health care act but that it was discussed more in a separate meeting with Vatican Secretary of State, Cardinal Pietro Parolin.
"I pledged to continue to dialogue with the U.S. Conference of (Catholic) Bishops to make sure that we can strike the right balance," Obama said.
He acknowledged that there were differences of opinion between himself and the pope on a number of issues but said the pontiff could be an inspiration to politicians.
"His job is a little more elevated. We're down on the ground dealing with the often profane, and he's dealing with higher powers. I do think that there is a potential convergence between what policymakers need to be thinking about and what he's talking about," he said.
The Vatican statement said the topics discuss included "current areas of conflict, which Vatican officials said was a reference to Ukraine and Syria.
Obama said the major domestic issue he discussed with the Pope himself was his drive to get immigration reform approved in the U.S. Congress. They also discussed poverty, inequality and conflicts in the world.
When he entered the Vatican, Obama walked past the frescoed halls of the Apostolic Palace to the entrance of Francis' private library.
"It is a great honor. I'm a great admirer," the president said as the pope greeted him and they sat at the pontiff's desk. "Thank you so much for receiving me."
Obama invited the pope to visit the White House and gave Francis a symbolic gift of seeds of fruit and vegetables from the garden of the presidential residence.
"If you have a chance, you can come to the White House and you can see the garden," Obama told Francis as he was explaining the gift to him.
The Pope, responding in Spanish, said "Como no?" (For Sure!)
In all, Obama spent nearly two hours in the Vatican, nearly half of it in private talks with the pope. He held a separate meeting with Cardinal Parolin.
The pope gave Obama two commemorative medals and a red leather-bound copy of Evangeli Gaudium (The Joy of the Gospels), a document Francis wrote last year which is seen as the road map for his papacy.
"You know, I will probably read this in the Oval Office when I am deeply frustrated and I am sure that it will give me strength and calm me down," Obama said. The pope responded in English: "I hope".
Francis has turned his back on much of the traditional formality of the Vatican but he deployed the full weight of state ceremonial, welcoming Obama outside the official library, which he now uses only to receive visiting dignitaries.
The pope has given up the spacious papal apartments for more modest quarters in a Vatican guest house.

Parking on campus is great. There is a small parking lot but not many people have cars so it works out. It costs around $50.00 per semester for a parking permit and if you get a ticket you will have to pay 25.00 which is costly.
The parking situation is very convenient. Parking in front of the Campus Center is the best place, but there are plenty of places to park on the street around the campus if the parking places are full.

SAN ANTONIO (AP) - The last of five Red Cross shelters still open since deadly South Texas flooding has closed as recovery continues from the high water.
Officials say the final shelter still serving victims of the May 25 flooding closed Thursday afternoon in San Antonio. The last six people who spent Wednesday night at the shelter have since made other living arrangements.
The Red Cross had operated four shelters in San Antonio and one in Floresville - providing accommodations for more than 150 people since the storm.
Three people died after being swept away by floodwaters.
