Library assistant Alvina reviews Brave New Reads pick Spill Simmer Falter Wither by Sara Baume - read on to find out why you're sure to love this stunning book:
From first unfurling to eventual denouement, Spill Simmer Falter Wither comes full circle in a torrent of emotional freedoms and physical escapes. Bound up with the seasons, this is an intensely felt love story.
We follow Ray, a hesitant fifty-seven year-old solitary dweller, as he discovers the quiet gratification of companionship with One Eye, a rescue dog as grisly and mangled as Ray envisions himself to be. Vicarious visions of One Eye's world bind man and dog together in oneiric hyper-awareness; 'Now you are my third leg, an unlimping leg, and I am the eye you lost'. Yet their bond is ever threatened by One Eye's unpredictable savage outbursts towards others - one dangerous encounter drives them to flee house and home in a meandering road journey of evasion.
Baume's precise, lyric language lifts this tale above tragic biographical narrative and reveals the myriad things we miss in our purposeful lives.
A tumbling kaleidoscope of miniature experiences suffuse us with the significance of small tasks and routine shared. Ray, like One Eye with his inquisitive nose, is attentive and observant of every small occurrence and change in his environment, exercising a gentle and mindful perception. His limitless empathy counters the pathetic pitiable character he believes others see: 'I haven't lived high or full, still I want to believe I've lived intensely'. Ruminating on the unimaginable wonders of others' lives, Ray shows us our world from the outside in with poignancy and humour.
However, we also see Ray severely hindered by his self-acknowledged "inability to do things". He cannot reach out, or within, to find reason for the constant puzzle and battle of his existence – 'better to be content with ignorance, I've always thought, than haunted by the truth'. Darker hidden truths are gradually unearthed through confidences to his dog; which make a kind of sense of Ray's situation. For someone unable to rebel, to completely let go as One Eye furiously does, these secrets offer a slight mitigation.
Truly the fable of the outsider and the outcast, reading this book was more akin to being so absorbed by a film you forget the screen before you. With such honest open feeling and vivid writing, I saw and lived the entire tale along with One Eye and Ray. An epic poetic relation of two small lives caught between the vastness of nature and the greater dangers of human society, I was engrossed by this jewel of a story and I think you will be too.

Readers' Circle member and retired library worker Joy Travers reviews Brave New Reads pick The Illusion of Separateness by Simon Van Booy. Read on to get a flavour of this astounding novel:This beautifully written novel tells the story of how acts of kindness and compassion can have long-lasting and far-reaching consequences. Inspired by true events from World War II, Simon Van Booy has skilfully composed an engaging read which captivates and engages from the start as we are drawn into the different life experiences of the characters.Van Booy illustrates with clarity how the consequences of the actions of one person can shape, for good or ill, the lives of future generations. However it is one man's simple act of compassion toward another, in a situation over which neither had control that provides the basis for the story. This act is proof that the human spirit, although sometimes bowed can never be diminished.The chapters switch between World War II and the present day, focusing separately on each of the characters, revealing how their lives are all connected, and how a single act of mercy resonates through the decades. The author masterfully disentangles each separate thread and destroys the illusion of separateness between the characters. He shows how the human condition can be shaped by seemingly random events whose importance is revealed only when the whole story has unfolded.The six main characters narrate their own stories with clear and understated prose describing in concise detail the events that make up their lives. Without graphic language or violence, the full horrors of war, loss, death and separation are illustrated to the reader. Van Booy explicitly conveys the thoughts and feelings of each of the characters with elegance and beauty, even when the events themselves are shocking and ugly. There is a poetic dexterity and a delicateness of touch to the writing, making The Illusion of Separateness compelling to read even though it portrays events that are breathtakingly sad. I felt a warmth and empathy towards the characters and wanted to continue reading to hear their stories. This novel succeeds in drawing together the seemingly unrelated strands of different countries, characters and timescales weaving them into a moving tale that enriches the reader and gives hope for the survival of the human spirit.Simon Van Booy will be at Huntingdon Library, Wednesday 29th June, 3.30m. Buy your ticket for only £2. Alternatively, join Simon at a creative writing workshop at WCN Dragon Hall on Thursday 30th June, 6.30pm. Priced at a mere £12, this workshop is open to writers at all stages of their careers: from those new to writing fiction, to the more practised.

Readers' Circle member Roland Ayers reviews Brave New Reads pick Signs Preceding the End of the World. Read on to see what he thinks:
Unusually there is no poetry selection among this year's Brave New Reads. Yet with prose as poetic as Yuri Herrera's, who needs poetry? In fact, the exact choice of words were not his, translated as they were from the author's Mexican Spanish to English – or as the novel would put it, from latin to anglo – by Lisa Dillman. The Translator's Note at the end provides some insight into the challenges translation presents. According to Lisa Dillman the original prose is 'often infused with understated affection and tenderness', its style 'elegantly spare', the use of language 'nothing short of stunning'. It is tribute to the meticulousness of her translation that such qualities shine through into anglo.
Language itself is one of the novel's themes. Its sassy, yet tender-hearted young female switchboard operator protagonist Makina, operates phones in native tongue, latin tongue and the 'new tongue' of those who have crossed to the North. She 'knew how to keep quiet in all three too'. The word verse is frequently used as a verb meaning to exit. In the Spanish, jarchar, from the Arabic kharja, it was inspired by concluding verses of Arabic and Hebrew poems of the thirteenth century. They would tell of a transformative exit, often a lover's goodbye, in a feminine voice. The whole novel turns out to be just such an exit for Makina when she heads to the North (the word America never used).

Sarah Salmon, Brave New Reads Readers' Circle member and librarian, reviews her favourite book of 2015: The Last Pilot. See what she thinks... I am so happy that this book made it into the 2016 Brave New Reads as I've loved it for over a year and in fact it was my favourite book of 2015 – and I read over 200 books last year so this is quite a feat!I knew this book was coming - the author Benjamin Johncock wrote it in the library where I work. We'd met, chatted, and discussed the book in advance of its release and I was haunting the Net Galley website* daily looking for the chance to read an advance copy. I was worried that this much expectation would only result in disappointment...The Last Pilot follows the life of Jim Harrison, who doesn't just fly planes – he tests them (to destruction). Jim is working in a famous test pilot school in the Californian Desert when he is picked to join the Astronaut corps. This, however, is during the time of the early space programme, when being an astronaut really meant you had to have "the right stuff". Emotional weakness meant that at best you'd wash out of the programme and at worst the distraction could kill you. Jim is about to be tested to his limits.I'm not going to say more about the plot because I want everyone to have the excitement of reading this book for the first time. Instead I'm going to say why I loved it so much.I am a space nerd (I'm not hugely into the technology and the big rockets but I love the human stories). I've read numerous biographies, autobiographies and history books about the early manned space programme (and the later ones) and I've been privileged enough to meet, listen, and talk with these personal heroes. They were brave men (women didn't join the programme until 1978) and they were foolhardy. They were also flawed, despite being presented as infallible heroes to the public.The Last Pilot conveys all of this, and despite being fiction I was constantly convinced that Jim was one of the original astronauts from the era. The details were all so much in tune with what I've read and heard that as I was reading the book, I was walking in the same places and 'seeing' the action unfurl. I've read other novels set around the space race and they've either missed the feel completely or read like a history book – The Last Pilot was just a gripping read, and one that you can enjoy without being a space nerd like me (I can prove this as I lent my copy to a non-space-enthusiast family member and they read the book in just two sittings).If you wonder if all of the elements in this book could happen—and there are some events that I thought did stretch credibility a touch—further reading and watching assured me that such scenarios could and do take place. This book is an incredible reconstruction of the heady early space program.
Read an extract of The Last Pilot to get a taster of the novel.Meet Benjamin Johncock at Wisbech Library on the 16th June or at Woodbridge Library on the 19th July. Borrow The Last Pilot from Cambridgeshire Libraries, Norfolk Libraries, or Suffolk Libraries.

About Me
Raymond Baldwin
Oregon's 5th Congressional District
Stand Up Oregon We Can Do This
To my fellow Oregonians,
Hello, my name is Raymond Lee Baldwin, I want to be your advocate and fight for your rights as your next Congressional Representative. I am running to restore and protect individual rights that are being eliminated by corrupt politicians who prostitute their votes for money and use insider trading to become millionaires, all the while binding the public with a growing bureaucracy. Being a single father who has raised 9 children, have 9 grandchildren and one great grandchild, I know firsthand the difficulties that families face while struggling to survive the pitfalls in life. I believe that family comes first and pledge to stand up and defend your freedoms and liberty to be a self-governed people. Too often, our government treats us as if they are the parent and we are the children. They tell us to do as they say, not as they do. With ever-increasing taxes that burden our house holds, government agendas that tear our families apart, lower home values, unemployment at record numbers, higher fees for secondary education, huge national debt, and uncontrolled spending of our money by bureaucrats who are not held accountable, we find ourselves feeling like slaves to the government. Let us remind them who the boss is, and take our country back to the principle of common sense and local governing. Have you had enough yet? I have and I want to earn your support and help to restore our confidence in the American Dream. Let your voices be heard this November and reclaim your God given right to Life Liberty and the Pursuit of your Happiness. It is time to give the power back to the people. Help me to unite Oregonians for our Families, for our Freedoms, and for our Future. Vote Raymond Lee Baldwin as your next Congressional Representative.
Stand up Oregon, Together we can do this!
Sincerely, Raymond L. Baldwin

A new mole-map service will launch in pharmacies this week to
make life-saving melanoma diagnosis more accessible to New
MoleMap Spot Checks will be launched at selected pharmacies
to increase public uptake of skin lesion diagnosis.
Skin cancer is the most common form of cancer in New Zealand,
affecting around 45,000 Kiwis every year, with about 320
dying from the disease annually.
MoleMap CEO Adrian Bowling says the service - being piloted
at Life Pharmacy St Lukes, Glenfield and Albany - will make
lesion diagnosis both more affordable and convenient.
"Often people notice changes in a mole but may put off doing
something until it's too late. Now it's something they can
get checked out in the mall during their lunch hour, without
the need for an appointment," Mr Bowling said.
Auckland dermatologist and MoleMap medical director Dr Mark
Gray said it's important that New Zealanders and their
partners take more notice of lesions on their skin and
particularly those that fall into the "ugly duckling"
This category is used by skin cancer researchers to explain
the theory that moles on individuals generally tend to
resemble one another, and the ones that don't are of higher
concern, he says.
Dr Gray says when one mole seems to fall outside of the norm
it is worth having a medical professional take a closer look
at it.
Images of the lesions will be taken with the latest MoleMap
custom-designed melanoma camera.
It will then be sent by a secure link to a panel of
MoleMap-registered dermatologists along with a patient
history and details for review.
Patients can then expect a diagnosis report within a few

John Leslie takes these women through a sexual gauntlet of pleasure and pleasing actions.
All meat is fresh before director John Leslie puts the girls bearing it through the sexual grinder. While this may be marketed as fresh meat, the gals still have the ability to be fresh without insulting our intelligence that they are new to this activity.
From Phoenix Marie and in another scene Hunter Bryce, who both respectively deep throat an appreciative Johnny Sins, to the dual girl/girl guzzling with Jaelyn Fox and Riley Evans prior to ravishing a leather face-masked Oliver Sanchez, the action is just about non-stop. Plenty of kink permeates this one, and anal toys and more make appearances.

Publisher's Description
Introduced by Russell Moore. How do we respond to the sheer wonder of the incarnation of God's Son? Mary responded to the announcement of the birth of the Saviour with a song of praise. Her words were deep and with feeling - truly an experience which had affected her inner being. Yes, she was confused at first but she was willing to submit to God. She praises God for His character and for keeping His promises even when circumstances seemed to contradict that with the long wait over centuries for the Messiah. In this delightful book, co-published with Bryntirion Press, Martyn Lloyd-Jones meditates on Mary's Song of Praise and applies it to our lives. He looks at our response to God and how God deals with us. We find that the new birth is all of God and nothing of ourselves.

Terrific for growing belly
Posted by Reviewer2570739 on Nov 28, 2012
I decided to try this oil for pregnancy and a growing belly. It is very soothing and a small amount goes a long way compared to other oils I'm using. It smells fresh and invigorating, gender neutral fragrance. Its summer so lovely refreshing smell. Its not too greasy. Its an oil so is still greasy but it soaks in well. Only halfway through so no idea if it works for stretch marks yet, but it soothes any dry itchy skin.

- An ISBN is the 10 or 13 digit number, usually printed on the back of a book with a bar code, that serves as a unique identifier for the book.
- Searching by ISBN is the best way to search because it will get you the exact title and edition that you need.
- Many professors include the ISBN on their syllabi or in their course management system.
If you don't have the ISBN, try a title or author search.
Title search
- Enter all words in the title you are looking for. The search engine will try to find books that have all the words you entered in the title. Leave out words such as "a," "an," or "the."
- When including edition, use numeric values. For example, "1st edition" instead of "first edition."
Author search
- Enter all or part of the author name you are looking for.
- You do not need to enter a first name, but if there are a lot of books by authors with the same last name, it may help to narrow the results.
- You can enter the name in any order such as "John Smith" or "Smith John." Avoid using a comma since it has a special meaning in the search.
Keyword search
- You can search by keyword but this approach is not recommended as it will likely return a large set of results.
- If you want to search by keyword, try a combination of author and keyword. For example, "Warren Accounting" where "Warren" is the author and "Accounting" is the keyword.
To refine your results, use the filtering/sorting options
- Filter options include product type and discipline area. Sort options include alphabetical sort (ascending or descending) and copyright year (ascending or descending).

Dear Diary,
The 80s brought about the trend and we've been bringing it back! Acid wash denim has made a huge comeback in the last year. Whether you see a vintage acid wash Levi jacket or a pair of acid wash jeans from Urban Outfitters, the trend has definitely been making its way back into the fashion world. With D.I.Y.s on blogs and all over Youtube, anyone can take a simple pair of jeans or an old denim button up and simply bleach it to create the acid affect.
Browsing through Etsy, I found a shop that featured an interesting dress that catered not only to the reoccurring acid wash trend, but also the peplum trend as well. Etsy shop, Empty Attix , displayed a Vintage Oxygen Denim Peplum Dress with corduroy details, and green buttons. The dress screams vintage, and definitely is a stand out piece!
To complete the look pair the dress with healed black boots, and grab a pair of your mom's old big bright vintage clip-ons or door knocker and your set.

Large distributed systems, such as computational grids, require a large amount of monitoring data be collected for a variety of tasks, such as fault detection, performance analysis, performance tuning, performance prediction and scheduling. Ensuring that all necessary monitoring is turned on and that the data is being collected can be a very tedious and error-prone task. We have developed an agent-based system to automate the execution of monitoring sensors and the collection of event data

Nightlife Santa: Drunk and at Liberty
posted by December 14 at 15:52 PMon
Santa was at Liberty on 15th last night, enjoying the hell out of himself. The barman said Santa had killed the keg of Liberty Ale and moved on to pints of Stella. ("I don't know what the reindeer are drinking," the barman said.) The flask lodged between Santa's substantial belly and for-decorative-purposes-only belt was empty. "I drank it already," he said. About the belly: "That's real," he said with pride. "That's a lot of beer." Santa doesn't like gin. "When Santa drinks gin," he said, "he tastes it for three days." Santa was unconcerned that his suit made him look fat.
Santa put the crowd drinking at Liberty at a 50/50 naughty-to-nice ratio. He was given to promising women brand-new canary yellow cars. Santa likes the ladies, it was clear, and he's seeking to address the wage gap as best he can.
One woman posed for a photo with Santa and her martini. Regarding her photograph afterward, she said, "I look kind of guilty." What did she ask for? "To please make him fall into the ocean and float far, far away." Who? "Santa knows."
Santa and the owner of Liberty (which also serves sushi) discussed fishing; Santa's an avid fisherman and will be getting back to it in Cancun in January. (In an aside, the owner of Liberty reported that both of Santa's hands were visible in the majority of the evening's photographs, "so that's good.")
Mrs. Claus was present, too, wearing silky dark red and a jingle-bell bracelet. She interrupted an extended conversation with Santa.
"Are you getting in trouble?" she said.
"I'm not telling lies!" he said.
"You're going back to the North Pole in about five minutes," she said.
Someone told Santa that they hadn't seen him in a long time, that they'd missed him. "I've always been here, and I'll always be here, forever and ever and ever," he said. "You just have to believe in your heart."
Tonight, Santa's at the Tasting Room; tomorrow night, at BalMar.

Tokyo stocks edged down on Tuesday as late profit-taking wiped out early gains, with traders warily eyeing escalating threats from North Korea.
The Nikkei 225 index at the Tokyo Stock Exchange closed down 0.24 points at 13,192.35, but the Topix index of all first-section issues was up 0.03 percent, or 0.30 points, at 1,102.04.
"Market participants cashed in their recent gains in late trading, which offset early gains of the day," said Hirokazu Fujiki, strategist with Okasan Securities.
"Today's profit-taking is quite understandable as the Nikkei index has surged so fast for the past weeks," Fujiki said.
On Monday, the benchmark Nikkei index soared 2.80 percent to close at its highest level in more than four years as a further drop in the yen's value ignited buying of exporters' shares.
"Market players were also cautiously watching the North Korean situation, although it was not a major factor in moving the market today," Fujiki added.
North Korea's bellicose rhetoric has reached fever pitch in recent weeks, with near-daily threats of attacks on US military bases including in Japan and South Korea in response to ongoing South Korea-US military exercises.
The dollar rose to around 99.65 yen early in the morning, to hit its highest level since May 2009 but lost ground to 98.94 yen in afternoon trade, compared with 99.36 yen in New York on Monday.
The dollar's rise stalled owing to profit-taking cued by Japanese Finance Minister Taro Aso's comments Tuesday that the yen's excessive strength was being corrected, as well as on dollar selling by exporters, market players said.
The euro changed hands at 128.80 yen from 129.23 yen in US trade. The European common currency gained to $1.3023 from $1.3005.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average finished at 14,613.48, up 48.23 points or 0.33 percent, on Monday in anticipation of the earnings season, which kicks off this week.
On the Tokyo bourse, exporters ended mixed as Sony fell 1.61 percent to 1,643 yen while Toyota declined 0.56 percent to 5,270 yen, but Panasonic jumped 2.33 percent to 658 yen.

There is just no stopping Oreo. In its latest claim to fame, the cookie brand is taking on the universe with a star chart messaging app called Oreo Skies. Putting its own twist on traditional mobile messaging, Oreo has partnered with Nokia to develop the Smartphone app, which is designed to connect people through the stars.
Using augmented reality technology, the Oreo Skies mobile app allows users to write messages and attach them to actual constellations revealed in the app. At present, it is only available on a Nokia Lumia Windows Smartphone.
"The Mondelez International Mobile Innovation Lab with Nokia is a key component of our mobile strategy, together with our incubation program, Mobile Futures," says Bonin Bough, vice president for global media and consumer engagement at Mondelez International.
"It is meant to be an experimentation lab aimed at pushing the envelope of technology and reinventing mobile experiences. Over the past year, we've been exploring different brands and platforms and we're excited to launch the Oreo Skies app into the marketplace as a result of the partnership," he adds.
To use the app, users point their Smartphones at the sky, no matter what time of day or night, and explore a map of the stars and constellations. When they touch a star in a constellation, it twists open like an Oreo cookie to reveal a message left for one or more friends. Users can search the Oreo Skies' universe for specific stars, and friends can retrieve their message by following a compass in the upper-right corner of the display.
In addition to messages from friends, users can uncover messages from the Oreo brand. While browsing the skies, app users will periodically see shooting stars cross their screens, which carry special offers, recipes or incentives. Fans can also access celestial facts and video content direct from famed astrophysicist Dr Robert Kirshner, Clowes professor of Science at Harvard University.
The person who sends the most messages during a lunar cycle (every 30 days) will "own the moon" for the next lunar cycle and can place a special message on the moon for all users of the Oreo Skies universe to see. A leaderboard will track all users in real time.
Oreo fans that don't have a Nokia Lumia Windows Smartphone can still participate in the skywriting through the global Oreo Facebook community, which currently consists of around 31 million fans. Fans can message each other through a mobile or desktop version of the application on Facebook and follow the leader board.
Nokia teamed up with Oreo in early 2012 as part of the Mondelez International Mobile Innovation Lab.

Skip to comments.Ayers: Oh, by the way, Obama and I actually are family friends
Posted on 11/14/2008 3:54:42 AM PST by RobinMasters
Via Ace. The bad news? Obama was lying to us when he dismissed Ayers at the debate as merely a guy who lives in my neighborhood. The good news? We already knew that, thanks to Axelrod and Mayor Daley.
Anyway, belated confirmation.
(Excerpt) Read more at hotair.com ...
We had served together on the board of a foundation, knew one another as neighbors and family friends, held an initial fund-raiser at my house, where Id made a small donation to his earliest political campaign, he writes. But right-wing commentators tried to use those connections to smear Obama, he says.
Obamas political rivals and enemies apparently saw an opportunity to deepen a dishonest narrative about him, that he is somehow un-American, alien, linked to radical ideas, a closet terrorist, a sympathizer with extremism, Ayers wrote.
How is that possible, when Ayres and Obama were insisting they were only acquaintances? You know, LYING. Why lie if you're innocent?
Ayers is on Good Morning America now (7:14 a.m.)
"Ho, ho, ho." --Brit Hume
He was just as much a liar this morning on Good Morning America as Obama is.
Secretary of Education...
Adding this to the Ayers link thread:
AYERS and Weatherman Link Thread
Poor Boortz. He announced that he already deleted his Ayers file. It's kind of hard to be entertaining when you self-sensor like that. God bless Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, and Mark Levin. They aren't buying the latest version of 'new tone' spin.
New tagline:
WAIT A MINUTE last week Ayers the terrorist anti American pig, said that he barely knows Obama.
No shite Sherlock...
I did not vote for the Muslim, but the idiots that did will pay for their foolish vote
just wait till the day after inauguration when his followers find out they still have to pay for their own gas and their mortgage..
The bastard was on GMA this morning spinning his evil web of deceit and defending his actions.
Funny how Cuomo grilled him NOW, a week and a half AFTER the elections... makes me sick.
What I learned from this election is that the msm is a truly powerful, liberal entity.
Actually they are talking about the guy who runs the Chicago Public Schools Arnie Duncan who has turned back the progress of his predecessor, Paul Vallas (sp) who would be a wonderful Secretary of Education.
Great tagline.
I'm surprised there hasn't been any Columbia University stuff come out. I guess nobody saw them at a coffee shop together? No photos? Obama's book is silent on this period in his life, they lived close by each other and then live in Chicago close by. Coincidence?
Half of America elected a unrepentant liar and fraud.
Half of America disgraced themselves and their country.
The other half was never fooled, saw right through Obama, but will also pay for the blind ignorance and hate spewed by the other half.
Soon, very soon, all those that elected this joke of a person are going to find that all thet they assumed Obama was, all that they thought he promised, will not come true.
No jobs, no security, high fuel prices, no retirement, wait in line for months, healthcare, provided by subpar physicians, loss of free speech and liberties, will be the legacy of their vote for this false messiah.
oh by the way,
muslim money traders through out africa have pictures of Obama wearing the head garb for Friday at the mosque....
Shariah financing...
Over half of America knowingly chose EVIL.
God made sure we were making an informed decision this time.
Friends in BOTH neighborhoods? New York (Barry's Columbia Daze) and Chicago (Annenberg Daze)....
Agreed. Your tagline sums it up.
Locked up and airtight. Nothing to see here. Now move along.
(However, if you're curious about Columbia's political background, search on it and "Frankfurt School".)
You could be right he is already filling the children of this country full of Communist trash..Ayers people are the ones that worship at the feet of the Charles Manson types...
Obama is such a a corrupt man.
Obama is a complete and total liar, almost pathologically so. Even his autobiography (which Ayers probably wrote for him) is loaded with evasions and pure bull—— that does not stand up to examination. In the brief time since the election ended, many of the excuses that Obama offered on the campaign trail have been exposed as falsehoods: his description of his personal relations with Ayers, Wright and his illegal alien aunt have all been shown to be bogus.
Obama skated through most of the primaries and the general election, but the truth is percolating to the surface and he is being exposed as a blatant liar. The honeymoon is not going to last long.
The gullible American electorate took you at your word, Mister Obama, they will hold you accountable.
Wow...Ayers tells the truth sometimes....who knew!
There is no statute of limitations on putting the scumbag in PRISON and on death row for self-admitted bragging of the murder of police officers.
O is smearing it in everyone's face. Even those idiots who voted for him when he puts all the old timers in his cabinet. The only change he's bringing is he's back tracking on his promises BEFORE he gets sworn in.
Yeah, a couple of people gave me funny looks when I swore and flipped the guy off when he appeared on the overhead TV while I was on the treadmill at the local YMCA this morning.
Bill Ayers still defends his indefensible actions and there are thousands of Marxist professors who apparently agree.
It isn't that he didn't DO these things he was accused of or that Barack Obama didn't KNOW about them or disagreed with them.
They see NOTHING wrong in it just as they see nothing wrong in leaving an infant to die in a closet without assistence.
They are EVIL. And a bunch of stupid Red Dupe commie stooges elected our nation's absolute most unAmerican president. The fools. The damned fools.
In other words, just pal'ing around.
May I remind you that in the words of that evil unrepentant terrorist, "Oh, by the way, Obama and I actually are family friends". There is no point in holding a trial when a presidential pardon is guaranteed. All Ayers did was terrorism directed at police, military, and the government of the United States of America. The Affirmative Action President sees nothing wrong with any of that - "Ayers is mainstream" according to Obama's website. Sadly, this is one case where Obama didn't lie; he really does think that an unrepentant terrorist who is proud of having attacked our country is mainstream.
And I bet that if there had been a rumor or hint that
McRINO woulda been pals with Timothy McVeigh
or some other do-badder character, the media would
have IGNORED that to high he** too, huh ???
< /sarcasm >
"The gullible American electorate took you at your word, Mister Obama, they will hold you accountable."
I don't think the MSM will allow the truth about Hussein to ever come out.
Hah! Ha! Joke's on YOU American fools!
I knew that I could count on the mainstream media to get to the truth, and it only took until a week after the election. Obama has done more than just transcende race - he has transcended morality as well. If one of my neighbors bragged about having been a terrorist who bombed our country, showing gleeful pride instead of remorse and with no regrets except that he didn't set enough bombs, that would not be someone I chose as a family friend.
I can see Obama, Ayers and Wright in the Oval Office next year fist-bumping and back-slapping each other.
yep, down the memory hole.
"'Who controls the past', ran the Party slogan, 'controls the future: who controls the present controls the past.'"
the essential act of the Party is to use conscious deception while retaining the firmness of purpose that goes with complete honesty.
Thank you

I would like to know how does Seagate Momentus XT see virtual disk?
- As a single huge file (size depending on virtual disk type)
- As individual file within this virtual disk?
If the first one is true, then virtual machines on this drive work just as slow as if they'd be on everyday platters disk.
If the second one is true, hybrid drive speeds up virtual machines as well. You would likely see bootup times much shorter on a hybrid drive.
So users (or people that know its internals), which one is true?

2 Phone Giants in Court to Fight Turkish Family
By BARNABY J. FEDER
Published: February 17, 2003
After more than a year of pretrial maneuvering, an effort by two of the world's largest phone equipment companies, Motorola and Nokia, to paint themselves as victims of a huge fraud by a secretive Turkish family is scheduled to go to trial tomorrow in a federal court in New York.
The two phone giants are trying to recover as much as possible of the $2.8 billion they lent Telsim, a Turkish cellular start-up controlled by the Uzan family, to buy equipment and enter the fast-growing Turkish market.
The battle is being waged on multiple fronts, including courts in Britain and Turkey, and in Washington, where Motorola has sought the support of the Bush administration. On Thursday, operating under a British court order, Motorola seized one of the Uzans' private jets when it landed in Germany.
Meanwhile, Motorola and several of its top executives are facing a growing number of shareholder lawsuits complaining that the company inflated its stock price in 2000 and 2001 by announcing the sale of more than $1.5 billion in equipment to Telsim without disclosing that it had provided even more than that in loans to finance the sales. Motorola says the suits are without merit.
The Uzans, who were not available for interviews and whose representatives declined to speak on the record, have argued in interviews and in court that the entire conflict reflects their suppliers' unwillingness to face up to the losses stemming from the global crash in the telecommunications markets, recession in Turkey and a large devaluation of the Turkish lira. They say the main issue is whether Telsim's problems were beyond their control and that the terms of the agreements call for arbitration of such issues in Switzerland.
But the Uzans are being sued in New York under state fraud laws and the federal racketeering law originally designed to attack organized crime. If Motorola and Nokia win, they will ask that the damages be tripled, as the racketeering law allows. The problem, they say, is not one of contract interpretation but of deliberate deception, manipulation of the Turkish courts and financial skulduggery.
Although American courts tend to support arbitration clauses strongly in business contracts, Federal District Judge Jed S. Rakoff in Manhattan has ruled that Telsim's contracts do not apply because the suits are against the people who control Telsim and not the company itself.
Judge Rakoff also ruled that the contract allowed the suppliers to go to court rather than arbitration. The trial is expected to end quickly and decisively in the companies' favor. Last May, when Judge Rakoff froze the Uzans' New York assets, including eight apartments, he said that ''every preliminary indication'' pointed to ''repeated acts of fraud and chicanery'' adding up to ''a rather massive swindle.''
Since then, the Uzans have defied additional orders by Judge Rakoff. They have obtained a Turkish court ruling ordering that the New York suit be halted. None of the defendants or their lawyers plan to attend the trial. Judge Rakoff last fall imposed contempt fines starting at $100 million a month and doubling each month, but that ruling was stayed on appeal.
The family has similarly ignored orders entered by a British court, leading to 15-month jail terms being imposed on Kemal Uzan, the family patriarch, and Murat Hakan Uzan and Cem Cengiz Uzan, his two sons. The court imposed a four-month sentence on Aysegul Akay, their sister. But there has been no move to extradite any of the family from Turkey.
Motorola, based in Schaumburg, Ill., argues that it is owed more than $2 billion by Telsim, while Nokia, based in Finland, is seeking $700 million. Both have written off the entire value of the loans.
They are confronting one of the world's wealthiest families, according to Forbes, which estimated the Uzans' net worth last year at $1.3 billion. The Uzans' far-flung business empire comprises well over 100 companies, including the construction company that Kemal Uzan started in the 1950's, power and communications businesses, banks and media properties.
Back when the Turkish government awarded Telsim a license to compete with Turkcell, the country's first provider of digital cellular service, Motorola saw a golden opportunity. Motorola, which had previously sold small amounts of analog cellular equipment to Telsim, signed a supply agreement early in 1998 and also provided $200 million to help Telsim acquire its licenses.
''Telsim had 400,000 out of about 1.2 million cellular subscribers in Turkey when we made the first loan,'' said Scott Wyman, a spokesman for Motorola. ''By late 2000, it had 4.8 million out of about 14.4 million. And with 65 million people in Turkey, there was plenty of room for more penetration. Obviously, we were right about the opportunity.''
But the growth was not producing profits. Indeed, it was creating demands for more equipment, and frequent amendments to the supply agreement raised the total that Telsim had been loaned to $1.9 billion, not counting interest payments.

Welcome to Hulk Hogans main event, this game is obviously based off of the American Professional Wrestler Hulk Hogan. The game has a small comic book story that doesn't really have too much importance. You control a wrestler as he moves up the ladder in his wrestling career with Hulk Hogan cheering you on as you make your way up to the final battle against your rival. The game is pretty fun and the kinect reads pretty well as I did not have any major issues with it. Some parts of the game may cause you some problems and hardcore mode can be challenging. Overall it isn't the hardest game to complete, but it isnt the easiest either.
Create your Wrestler:
First create your wrestler to do this select the option to create your own wrestler on the main menu, do that and then back out to the main menu again and you will unlock the achievement Become Someone for 25.
First Playthrough:
Since the difficulty achievements dont stack your going to need to do two playthroughs. So start your first playthrough on "Average Joe" difficulty and just play through the game. Try and get as many of the stunt achievements as you can during this playthrough. This should be extremely easy and you shouldn't have any problems defeating any of your opponents. This should take about 2-3 hours to complete and you should have fun absolutely destroying all of your opponents.
Other Gamemodes:
Once you are done with your first playthrough you will have unlocked other gamemodes, and rings to play on. You are going to need to play one exhibition match on Average Joe difficulty, two Head to Head matches, one for each difficulty, and one Quick play mode on Average Joe difficulty. This will give you at least 225.
Second Playthrough:
To finish off the game do one last final push to beat the career on Hardcore. This is the only reason the difficulty is a 4/10 instead of 2/10, which is what I was originally going to put. This may cause a lot of issues and can be tough. Once you beat this you will unlock the achievement I Am Hardcore for 175. This should take you around 2-4 hours.
Mopping up:
If you have any achievements missing you can go to the appropriate area to get them. Remember that in Quick Play mode you can choose to do any stunt as many times as you wish so there's no need to go through career to get a stunt achievement since that will be more than likely what you will be missing.
If you follow this guide and roadmap then you should have the full 1000 for the game. The game is not a bad game but I wouldn't buy it because of the repetitiveness of the game. It is a good rent and will keep you entertained for a short while. I personally had a lot of fun and recommend this to not only people wanting a fairly easy 1000 but also for people looking for a good kinect game to entertain them for a while.

13 News spoke with several drivers at a local Topeka gas station. Not too many had big travel plans for the Memorial Day weekend. There is a reason: high gas prices.
It makes life tough on everyone, but certainly three major groups:
1. Commuters: Christy Zimmer drives more than an hour everyday. It takes $50 to fill up her tank. She fills it up every three days or so. You do the math. She says she lives with her parents now to save cash for her drive.
2. Teenage drivers. More than ever before, teenagers don't get gas money from their parents -- hard working parents can't afford gas for themselves and their children. So the teens must really think twice about where they drive. Those after-school jobs barely cover gas nowadays.
3. SUV owners. These gas-guzzlers can be a tough sell with prices on the rise. One SUV owner even told us she was considering walking to work to save on gas -- or trading her vehicle in.

Skip to comments.Romney opens up 7-point lead over Obama, as electoral map begins to shift
Posted on 10/18/2012 2:40:47 PM PDT by Ron C.
Mitt Romney's national lead over President Obama grew even more Thursday, with the latest Gallup survey showing the Republican nominee up 7 points -- as polling in the battlegrounds indicates the electoral map may be shifting in Romney's favor.
In a significant development, the RealClearPolitics electoral map, which offers predictions of which states favor which candidates, for the first time is showing Romney ahead in terms of electoral votes he is likely to win on Nov. 6.
Obama had a big advantage over Romney for months in those projections. But in the past few weeks, states thought to favor Obama like New Hampshire and Pennsylvania were moved into the "toss-up" column. Meanwhile, RCP just moved North Carolina from "toss up" to "leans Romney." The projections -- while subject to change any time of any day -- show Romney with a likely 206 electoral votes and Obama with 201. That leaves another 131 electoral votes up for grabs in the battlegrounds.
(Excerpt) Read more at foxnews.com ...
The national Gallup survey, which is based on a seven-day rolling average and was updated Thursday, showed Romney leading 52-45 percent. At the start of October, he was tied with Obama at 48 percent each.
And they're all lying.
Romney is going to win! If you don't believe me - ask Bob Beckel.
If Gallup is correct, Romney will crush the Liberal Messiah. Following that, Chris Matthews will cry and consider suicide. Also, there will be at least one riot.
I like Romney's voice . It's 'Presidential '
Very comforting , solid , reassuring .
He will become known as another Reagan , universally respected , admired and loved .
By all but the brainless nitwit Demo-lemmings that blindly hate anything that not a D ( as in dumber , dumber, dumbest)
if we are lucky Matthews will got thru with it !
I'll drink to that
If Detroit wins the World Series thhey can save time and have a twofer when they riot.
Looks to me like people are getting cocky and overconfident about these latest poll numbers.
I'm betting at least two - one in Los Angeles, the other in New York. 8^)
I am getting some champagne ready.....and I am not really a drinker.
There's a difference between arrogance and confidence.
The MSM has exhibited a great deal of the former. Telling the truth on the other hand, is not exaggerated boasting!
I will love watching MSNBC and DU when the Muslim communist Obama loses!
I wonder what the DU dummies are doing now watching this poll? lol
Saw Bob Beckel on Fox a little while ago — he really looked depressed. He said essentially that if these numbers are correct, "it's over." He did go on to say he wasn't quite certain they are correct — while he does respect Gallup, he pointed out the margin of error of 4%, which could bring it down to 48%. But I have to hand it to Beckel, he's one of the few liberals that is willing to be honest about what this poll (if accurate) really means.
Perhaps - but most of us are working our butts off trying to push Romney over the line! The numbers of R/R campaign workers are LEGION!
Obama could get 47%. As the weeks progress, I won't be surprised if he ends up with 42%. Once people tell you "its over" - watch your number take a big slide.
And it couldn't happen to a more deserving guy.
This is not unusual. Early on, presidential polls usually show the incumbent as beating the challenger plus many polls are weighted to favor the Democrat. Now, a few weeks away from the election two things happen: (a) polled respondents begin choosing a candidate and, (b) polls that were skewed to favor Obama have to get real to maintain credibility post-election. That means Romney's real numbers start showing up - and everyone feigns surprise.
We're all well aware that anything can happen and things could change between now and November 6th. However, barring some unforeseen cataclysmic event that sways the election, I believe that Romney will handily defeat Obama.
Eh, I just don't want to see our side getting too comfortable.
Even if it was a sure thing that Romney will trounce Obama, I want to see the Left humiliated, demoralized, and buried by as large a winning margin as possible so that it becomes a mandate against them.
i agree 1000%. i am still deathly worried about nov 6. i could care less that romney is up if these polls are polling in CA NY NJ etc......
it matters if hes up in OH VA FL and VA
Chrissie will be on suicide watch very soon!...
Obama doesn't need to worry. He is winning Intrade.
They are encouraging, but we are aware that the final poll is election day.
NO MATTER WHAT THE POLLS SAY - we have to work like we are 5 points behind.... otherwise we risk a loss from complacency.
I have lost my bump.
The chances of Obama winning - with 56% are exactly zero.
Then again its not like the odds favor him.
He'll have to be content with that massive win on Intrade.
Intrade will be shifting soon I bet.
"Looks to me like people are getting cocky and overconfident about these latest poll numbers"
You got that right and there's three weeks left.
I expect we'll soon see an onslaught against Romney with allegations of either drug use, sexual harassment, pedophilia, homosexuality, bestiality, alcoholism, mental instability, racism, rape, theft, financial improprieties or all of the above.
If Hussein loses, we must be vigilant of the lame duck period. If he is the muslim plant so many wonder about, there's no telling what he will attempt or do.
Me too! But, if you live in a 'swing state' find a little time to donate to the campaign in the town where you live!!
No doubt he will be doing his best to leave a lot of land-mines, dirty tricks and nasty surprises.
Yes but we control the House of Representatives and can
filibuster anything in the Senate correct?
Oh, forgot to add a few more possibilities: some historian will tie Romney's direct ancestors to the Mountain Meadows Massacre, the Donner party, Lizzie Borden or Romney himself to the Jim Jones Guyana compound.
The margin of error on the Gallup poll is 2%.
Thanks for the good laugh.
Mr. and Mrs O, please remove yourself from the WHITE HUT/CRIB so we can RESTORE it to REAL AMERICA LOVING AMERICANS -- The ROMNEYS!! Thank You..
O, I'll help you move... I will GLADLY help you rent a U-HAUL, so you can put FLOTUS fat A-- in the back of it for the trip to KENYA -- er I meant Chicago...
I'm EXCTCITIZEN and I GLADLY APPROVED THIS POSTING!!!
I don't we are overconfident. We are simply being optimistic. We should be cautious, especially if we do win. Liberals don't accept defeat quietly. They will sue, riot, and/or call for revolution (remember the calls for secession in 2004).
Umm. More likely it's the biased reporting of the electoral college map that's shifting. It's not news that the numbers add up for Romney. The pukes just can't lie about it any more as the reckoning approaches.
"The projections — while subject to change any time of any day"
True...but would they say that if Obama was ahead. They are trying so hard to give their base something to hold on to, it gets pathetic.
Well - we're celebrating - BUT, we have A LOT OF WORK TO DO in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin and Iowa.
We have to win at least two of these states, maybe three, depending on Colorado.
I will be happy to buy Chrissy a gun and a bullet so he won't have to suffer. Does that make me a compassionate Conservative?
Pray for America
Do you not find your post just a bit ironic, Utmost Certainty?
agreed! We must keep an eye on Ohio. Ohio must go for Romney! These nationwide polls mean nothing if Romney doesn't pick up the buckeye state. Call your relatives and friends in Ohio and Get Romney elected!
And how! Lying Libs just can't be anything but despicable!
No one will admit it, but 2008 was our Affirmative Action vote. We (referring to the country as a whole) admitted we were racist hicks and made up for it by voting in an AA president.
So we did our job. But he let us down (just like every AA vote at the city level), so now it's time to put an adult back in power.

Jim Bunning (R-KY): The other side wants you to be afraid.
Cap and trade is the biggest threat to the US economy I've ever seen.
The reason this legislation is on the floor is fear. The other side wants you to be afraid. [But not our side, no, we don't want you to be afraid of anything, except that this bill will raise energy prices, destroy the economy, cost jobs….]
Carbon emissions are a function of economic growth.
We don't even know if carbon has a bigger impact on climate than solar radiation. [Uh, yes we do.]
If every industrialized country did this, it would only reduce temperatures 0.07 degrees in 20 years. [didn't hear whether this was Celsius or Fahrenheit, not that it matters. Why not point out it won't reduced temperatures at all over the next five years!]
Just 20 years ago the same scientists were talking about an ice age [actually, this is the 20th anniversary of Hansen's famous congressional warning about global warming].
In 2008, airlines are expected to pay $62 billion for fuel, compared to 40 billion last year. And we have eight airlines that have just gone bankrupt….
3 Responses to Jim Bunning (R-KY): The other side wants you to be afraid.
Oklahoma, Kentucky, what's the diff?
Is anyone covering the House debate? I'm watching Rep Dana Rohrabacher, and that guy is just plain BAT-CRAP CRAZY. First of all, he says Al Gore won a "noble" prize, and says something about a "cock-a-phony" (cacophony), and repeatedly says "nucular." He actually says the Three Mile Island incident was PSEUDO-SCIENCE!! Excuse me, what part of "hydrogen bubble" is pseudo-science? How is ionizing radiation pseudo-science? This guy is so far off the mark, he should be disqualified from serving in the Congress. Please, for the love of God, VOTE HIM OUT AT YOUR EARLIEST OPPORTUNITY, Huntington Beach and Costa Mesa!
to Uosdwis: I agree about the 'honorable' mr. rohrbacher. When he refuted the intergovernmental panel on climate change in feb., 2007 I thought he was BAT-CRAP CRAZY. Has anyone listened to the scientists in regard to the short term effect on climate change? What I remember is that no matter what is done, or (God help us!) not done, in the next 15 or so years (??) it won't significantly change the short term outcome of the clmate. What we do now, or don't do, will however effect things beyond that short term window. PLEASE, let's take this out of the hands of those who have a financial stake in short term, status quo, profit…I don't want the editorial page of the Wall Street Journal influencing science fact and scientific hypotheses by saying it's bad for the economy…how much is at stake for those who are pulling the strings @ the "journal"?…follow the money…


text: Home > Medical > Genital warts > HPV Updated 28 May 2015 Human papillomavirus (HPV) HPV is a sexually transmitted infection and is very contagious. 1 Quiz Are you ready for sex? » Join Health24 on Facebook » Ask Sexologist » Check Are you a sex addict? » Genital warts (GRAPHIC IMAGES) 5 body flaws Alternative namesHuman papillomavirus, HPV, genital warts, condylomata acuminata, penile warts, venereal warts, condyloma.DefinitionHuman papillomaviruses (HPVs) are a group of about 120 viruses. Over 30 types of HPV can be passed from one person to another through sexual contact. Other types cause the typical warts that occur on the hands of many children.Some types of HPV cause genital warts – single or multiple bumps that appear in the genital areas of men and women including the vagina, cervix, vulva, penis, and rectum. These are considered low-risk types of HPV (specifically types 6 and 11).High-risk types of HPV may cause cancer of the cervix, vulva, vagina, anus, or penis (specifically types 16 and 18).CauseHPV is a sexually transmitted infection (STI) and is contagious. The most common way to get HPV is by skin-to-skin contact during oral, vaginal or anal sex with someone who has HPV.Any sexually active person can acquire HPV. Whether you become infected with HPV is largely dependant on your immune system and the presence of certain co-factors that might put you at an increased risk for getting genital warts and other complications of HPV. These factors include:Multiple sexual partnersNot knowing if someone you had sex with had STIsEarly age when you start being sexually activeTobacco and alcohol useStress and other viral infections (such as HIV or herpes) at the same timeSymptoms In women, genital warts occur on the outside and inside of the vagina, on the opening to the uterus (known as the cervix), or around the anus.In men, genital warts are less common. If present, they usually are seen on the tip of the penis. They may also appear on the shaft of the penis, on the scrotum, or around the anus.Rarely, genital warts can also develop in your mouth or throat if you have oral sex with an infected person.Like many STIs, genital HPV infections often do not have signs and symptoms that you can see or feel. One study reported that almost half of women infected with HPV had no obvious symptoms.DiagnosisIn the majority of cases HPV is not diagnosed as the infection is not clinically apparent. Only once warts develop or a woman develops an abnormal Pap smear is the diagnosis of HPV infection made. This is why HPV infection is so common, because the majority of people with the infection don't ever know that they are infected and therefore do not take special precautions to prevent transmission.Can transmission be prevented?There have been no good studies assessing the role of condoms in preventing transmission of HPV, but recent analyses suggest that condoms may be up to 70% effective in prevention transmission of the virus. Remember, that while HIV is transmitted through semen and cervical and vaginal secretions, HPV is transmitted through skin-to-skin contact. So while the shaft of the penis may be protected by the condom, the skin of the scrotum and vulva is not.The most effective method of preventing infection with HPV is to vaccinate against the virus. There are currently two vaccines against HPV infection licensed in South Africa. The one vaccine, Gardasil protects against genital warts and cancers associated with HPV and the other, Cervarix, protects only against cancers associated with HPV. These vaccines should be given to young people prior to the onset of sexual activity, ideally to young women and men over the age of 9 years. You should consult your doctor about the vaccination.Treatment There is no medication that directly kills the HPV virus. It can however be destroyed by using various topical agents or ointments.There are treatments for genital warts, though the warts often disappear without treatment.Depending on factors such as the size and location of the genital warts, there are various ways of treatment. Laser ablation or cauterisation is used for large genital warts, usually performed under general anaesthetic.Your health care provider could prescribe a cream or solution to apply to the warts. If the warts are small, they can also be removed with one of the following methods:FreezingBurningOr topical agents such as podophyllin or trichloracetic acidLaser treatmentLarge warts that are not respondent to other treatment may have to be removed surgically.Although treatments can get rid of the warts, none get rid of the virus. Because the virus is still present in your body, warts often return after treatment.PrognosisWith proper treatment, genital wart outbreaks can be controlled. However, the warts frequently reappear after treatment. Even after you have been treated for HPV, you may still infect others.When to call your doctorWhen a current of past sexual partner is found to have genital warts.When you have visible warts on your external genitals, itching, discharge, or abnormal vaginal bleeding.Reviewed by Professor Lynette Denny, Gynaecology Oncology Unit, Department Obstetrics & Gynaecology, University of Cape Town/Groote Schuur Hospital, 2010 More in Medical HPV vaccine More: Genital wartsHPV advertisement Read Health24's Comments Policy Comment on this story 1 comment Comments have been closed for this article.

IPFire 2.11
The IPFire development team has released the 61st core update for IPFire 2.11, a hardened Linux appliance distribution designed for use as a firewall.
According to the IPFire website, IPFire offers corporate-level network protection for everyone from home users to large corporations and focuses on security, stability, and ease of use.
The latest version of IPFire features improved OpenVPN support. Now, static routes may be defined for OpenVPN clients, connections can now be renamed when importing them, and OpenVPN N2N connections are displayed with their status on the index page. Additionally, for security reasons, more than 30 bugs have been fixed for PHP 5.3.14.
According to the announcement, the Reiser4 filesystem will no longer be supported.
