Alleged Teen Hit Man Faces Short Jail Term
MEXICO CITY—Mexicans were stunned last week when soldiers arrested a 14-year-old hit man for a drug cartel who claimed to have beheaded four people. They got another surprising piece of news on Monday: If the teen is convicted, he faces a maximum sentence of just three years.
Laws in the Mexican state of Morelos, where the teen was arrested, stipulate a maximum sentence of three years for any crime committed by a minor under the age of 16, according to the presiding judge in the case, Armando David Prieto Limón.
"There's nothing I can do about this. That's the law," Mr. Prieto said in an interview.
Most Mexican states carry similar laws on the books, the judge said. Children under the age of 14 can't be jailed at all for crimes, and instead are remanded for psychiatric treatment or some period of social service.
Edgar Jiménez, 14, faces charges of aggravated murder, weapons possession, drug trafficking, and organized crime. Prosecutors have 60 days to present evidence in the case before the judge reaches a verdict.
The teen is allegedly part of a gang of youths in Morelos, just south of Mexico City, who worked for the Beltran Leyva drug-trafficking organization, one of Mexico's most bloody cartels.
The gang of youths gained notoriety in November after Internet videos showed them standing with assault weapons and posing next to their victims, some of whom were decapitated and hung from bridges as a warning to rival traffickers.
At the time, Mexican media reported that one of the killers in the video was named Edgar Jiménez and was just 12 years old. The ensuing furor set off a manhunt by Mexico's army that culminated in his arrest last week while trying to board an airplane from Cuernavaca, just south of Mexico City, to Tijuana, across the border from San Diego.
When he was arrested, the teen told reporters that he started killing when he was 11 years old and had beheaded four victims. But he said he was forced to commit the crimes under pressure from a cartel enforcer.
Mr. Jiménez also said he was born in San Diego—which, if true, would make him a U.S. citizen—and was paid more than $200 a week for his work.
While a case involving a teen hit man is rare, laws that prevent stiffer penalties against minors are having the perverse effect of attracting more young people to organized crime, the judge in charge of the case said.
"I'm seeing more and more cases involving minors who are involved in the sale of drugs and have links to organized crime. If they face a relatively light sentence, then the risk of getting caught to them is not as great as the allure of quick money," he said.
Mexico's congress is considering a bill that would allow judges to issue sentences for as long as seven years for serious crimes committed by minors between the ages of 12 and 18. But even if the law passed, it wouldn't apply retroactively to Mr. Jiménez's case.
Many Mexicans were dismayed to learn that the alleged killer could be back on the streets in a few years.
"If I'm a drug cartel, I'm hiring a bunch of adolescent killers because they can kill people and not have to pay a heavy price," said Edgar Hernandez, a pharmacist in Mexico City, shaking his head.

I upgraded my web site to a multisite network, and shortly after noticed that post thumbnails on my custom post types stopped working.
I've got a bunch of custom post types (like Movie) with thumbnails. I define them in my theme's function.php file, in a function run when the 'init' action fires. (I also tried pulling it out of 'init' and running it immediately when the theme is loaded, but that results in the same thing.)
Before upgrading to multisite, it worked great. My movies had thumbnails. After upgrading, the 'thumbnail' edit panel is now gone from the edit view. Thumbnails previously defined are still used, so in the front end that part still works. But in the admin panel, the ability to add or change them is gone. The Post Thumbnail box is gone from the Edit Post page, and there's no "Use as thumbnail" button in a post's gallery anymore.
And just to cover the obvious, yes I do call
add_theme_support( 'post-thumbnails' ), and the register_post_type call includes
'supports' => array('thumbnail'). This same exact code worked perfectly before switching to multisite. I also disabled every single plugin the site uses to check if there's a compatibility problem there, still nothing.
Running WordPress 3.1.2, though did the update to Multisite a couple of versions ago. Spent that time trying to figure this problem out to no avail.

Vt. ranks high for graduation ratesNovember 30,2012PORTLAND, Maine The U.S. Department of Education says northern New England states have some of the best high school graduation rates in the country.
The department on Wednesday released rankings that for the first time compare states using the same data.
Vermont had the third-best graduation rate, at 87 percent, while New Hampshire ranked seventh with an 86 percent rate. Maine came in 10th, at 84 percent.
Iowa had the highest graduation rate, 88 percent, while the District of Columbia had the lowest rate, 59 percent.
The Portland Press Herald says the ranking method essentially bases the rates on students who enter school as ninth-graders and graduate within four years. The approach allows for direct comparisons among states.MORE IN Vermont NewsPHILADELPHIA Vermonts delegation to the Democratic National Convention took center stage...

PlayBook Discounts Arrive
The cheap PlayBooks are here.
With its storehouses and retail channels filling up with its slow-selling tablet, Research In Motion is getting started with its plan for working off the excess.
The discounts aren't H-P TouchPad-good, but they do offer a big break from the 16GB version's $499 price, if you think you'll still be welcomed at home with something other than an iPad.
Office Depot is offering the 16GB PlayBook for $399 and throwing in a $100 Office Depot gift card by mail on top of that. Competitor Staples is offering the same deal but with a Visa prepaid rebate card.
(Hat tip to CNET, which tipped its own hat to BGR.)
Spot checks of other outlets didn't turn up the same generosity, with prices at Sprint and Radio Shack at or close to the original.
Still, it appears there are opportunities to turn RIM's pain into your gain.

Don't Get Caught Out At Altitude, extremities Warns
Technical outdoor specialist extremities has unveiled its latest range of products to keep skiers warm – in any weather and at any altitude.
The latest material technology and product design have been incorporated into the extremities brand, resulting in leading-edge gear developed and tested under some of the most severe conditions in the world.
The difference in temperature between resort level and the highest lift is always striking – especially when the sun drops behind neighbouring peaks or as freezing cloud closes in.
Carolyn Budding, marketing director at extremities, said: "Skiing or boarding at altitude brings its own challenges. We've all had the experience of hitting an ice storm just off the top lift when the temperature plummets to minus 20 or minus 30. Situations like that soon show up any shortcomings in your kit.
"Over the last 12 months materials technology has continued to evolve , and we're really excited about our range this winter. We know it will keep skiers warm no matter what the weather and no matter where you are on the mountain."
Highlights include new high-spec gloves like Super Munro GTX (http://www.terra-
The Super Corbett Glove (http://www.terra-
The ripstop nylon outer and PU palm grip provide strength and durability, making this an ideal glove for use with ski poles or hiking poles.
Other new items include a 100 per cent silk balaclava for extra warmth under helmets or hats, and the Windy Convertible Mitt (http://www.terra-
Extremities offers technical outdoor products for head, hand and foot protection. It is the sister brand of renowned outdoor specialist Terra Nova, whose products have been used by the military and British Antarctic Survey – and whose tents hold multiple Guinness World Records and are used in some of the most challenging locations on Earth, including Mount Everest.

I was using Windows 8 the other day and noticed that there is now a second cursor image (arrow) at the top left of my screen. It doesn't move, it doesn't do anything really, except sometimes go busy if the window below it is loading something.
My regular mouse cursor works as it should and moves when I move my mouse. I checked device manager, but it doesn't think that there's another mouse attached to the computer. It stayed after I rebooted my machine.
What should I do? Should I leave it there and see if it grows? Feed it cheese? Perhaps wiggle the other mouse and see if I can scare it away?

Korean food is becoming popular world wide, and galbi, bibimbap, and kimchi jjigae have become terms known by Korean food connoisseurs and casual fans alike. One of the reasons Korean food has been successful is that it is generally well suited for taste buds all across the globe and there's a wide variety of dishes making it easy for people to find something they like.
But Korean food is more than just bibimbap and kimchi. There's a whole range of dishes that most non-Koreans have never even heard about. This is Korean food for the brave. Whether it be because of taste, smell, texture, or spiciness, these bizarre Korean dishes are on the extreme end of the spectrum, so much that even some Koreans won't eat them.
Here's a list of 5 of the strangest Korean dishes. Read on to see if you're brave enough to try them.
Beongdegi (번데기)
(photo credit: http://maskfighter23.blogspot.com/)
This is by far one of the visually strangest foods Korea has to offer. Mostly sold in markets or by vendors in parks, this dish is eaten quickly and on the go- like a hot dog you'd eat from a cart in New York City. Instead of a familiar hot dog, though, it's steamed silkworm larvae. Koreans grab a cup of the steamed larvae (complete with the juices that come out during the steaming process) and walk around the park enjoying the view, eating the silk worms with a toothpick. The taste is nothing special, nor is it particularly revolting (thought the smell takes some getting used to), but the actual feel of a silkworm larvae in your mouth, complete with the explosion that comes with the first bite, is what makes this Korean food so hard to swallow.
Tip 1: Find these in markets and large parks in Korea. They can also be found in Korean supermarkets around the world.
Tip 2: Korean supermarkets in America will sell these in cans, but they are labeled as fish bait.
Jokbal (족발)
Mmmm…looks like another type of Korean barbeque. But While jokbal is another type of meat, it's not what you might expect. Jokbal is quite literally pig feet. Just like the other Korean meats, jokbal is a food that usually accompanies alcohol, often late at night. To eat, jokbal is wrapped in sangchu, with a bit of ssamjang and garlic, like other barbecued meats in Korea. This dish is actually quite tasty and is wildly popular with the general Korean public. Now you won't be surprised if you walk into a restaurant and see a pig foot lying on the chopping board.
Tip: If you're living in Korea, these are delivered nation-wide, usually 24 hours a day.
Chicken Feet – Dalkbal (닭발)
Korea does chicken really well, but this chicken dish probably won't be seen on the cooking network in the near future. Why is dalkbal a Korean food for the brave? Well, dalkbal is a whole chicken foot, bones and all. Once it's in your mouth, scrape off the little bit of meat that is on the bone with your teeth. If the talon scraping doesn't scare you, there's another reason you should be afraid. Dalkbal is known to be one of the spiciest dishes in Korea. The combination of a chicken foot in your mouth and mind numbing spiciness requires a certain level of bravery for even the most experienced Korean food connoisseurs.
Live Octopus – Sannakji (산낙지)
Raw octopus is a Korean delicacy that doesn't seem too scary. It's kind of like sushi, right? How about if it's still alive? One variation of sannakji is to take a live octopus or squid and slice it up. Although it's technically dead, the tentacles are still squirming, making it appear to be alive. Once you put it in your mouth, you can feel the suction cups grasping onto your teeth and tongue. The other variation of this dish is to take a baby octopus whole, no slicing and killing, and put straight into your mouth. Nothing else. It's that simple. Eating a live octopus in Korea is probably the pinnacle of Korean food for the brave.
Fermented Skate – Hongeo (홍어)
This is another seafood that will challenge even the most extreme of eaters. If you ever come across Hongeo, you will know instantly. The extremely pungent odor, which many liken to the stink of ammonia, makes this one of Korea's true delicacies. The smell is so strong and off putting that you will have a hard time even finding a restaurant that serves this dish. Many Koreans that have had the courage to try Hongeo vow never to eat it again, the smell is that strong. Hold your nose, shove it in mouth, and pray that you don't have a gag reflex…. if you're brave enough to try this Korean delicacy that is!
Do you know any other Korean foods that require a bit of courage? Share with us in the comment section.
The chicken feet is not scary at all. It's a delicacy in chinese culture too.
I love it.
Now.. the octopus is a different story….. I don't think I can eat that.
I don't like the title…calling things that are popular in other cultures 'crazy, weird and bizarre' is a little bit condescending. Chicken feet are popular in China…and pigs feet are eaten all over the world!
You're using the Chinese as a barometer? Dumbass, low-IQ American animal.
It's very interesting to see what other country eat. The pigs feet and Chicken feet are very common things to eat in Puerto Rico which is were I come from. I'm willing to try the sting ray but the octopus and silk worm are a maybe for me lol.
chicken feet are also common in our country, i'ts a popular Filipino street food and usually called "adidas"!..sure you've guessed easily why is it named like that 🙂
Well that's interesting but I'm gonna pass on all of the above lol.
Tried em all. They were all pretty good, except beondegi. That stuff is effing gross.
Oh it aiint too bad. Just gotta get used to the popping 🙂
I tried only 번데기, but would like to taste the others^^
Anyone tried dog meat yet? I heard it's good… but cruel it sounds…
Toughest part about eating the stingray is that it looks like it's smiling at you.
Chicken feet is quite a common dish in my country (I'm from Indonesia), although not everyone willing to eat it. And, silkworm larve also be eaten in some of our regions. I admit they're not for everyone though, (not for me either). But that live octopus! God! I will never ever eat it!!
Pigs feet? Pretty common in the grocery stores back home. In the South, anyway. Never have cared for it much myself.
I really don't like fish or seafood, but I'm tempted to try the octopus. Apart from the wriggling, how's the taste?
I have eaten 홍어 and loved it. But, you are right that it is weird and many of my korean colleagues are surprised that I (foreigner) like it 🙂
In the Philippines, we have chicken blood..very tasty! I wanna try the live octopus!
lol chicken feet and pig feet bring back alot of childhood memories of when my dad & uncles would try to get me to try them and the sting ray I remember seeing people eat them in soup's around the beaches in Mexico. (I'm Mexican by the way)
I've eaten all of these foods many times over and I'm able to give some advice if needed. The live squid doesn't taste unlike sushi, in fact it doesn't taste bad at all if you've a liking for raw fish. But the texture is a tough go for some people. In addition to that, you need to chew it THOROUGHLY because the tentacle suckers are still working just fine and will stick to your throat on the way down if not crushed first. Several deaths a year result from improperly chewed live octopus. This might sound funny, but beware an unknawed eight-legger. They're killers!
The worst of what is listed above if Bundeogi. Hands down. It smells worse that it tastes, but that's no silver lining. Trust me. It's a fowl food, disliked amongst almost everyone. And the few folks who claim to like it, are in fact just saying they can stomach it, and there's a big difference there. I can stomach it too …. but it's wretched. Straight up.
I'm fine with any of those except for the 번데기… I don't know why, but I can't stomach the thought of eating anything involving "worm" in its name…
And that is why I hate gummy worms xP
Better brush your teeth after eating any of those dishes 😀
Recommended for a romantic meal? lol.
번데기 먹고 봤어요. 괜찮은데요 ^^ 우리 나라에 닭발이 있지만 아직 안 먹고봤어요. 한국 닭발이 맛있겠어요. will try it and live octopus next time I visit Korea. Thanks for this post!
Silkworm larvae is fine. The first time I tried it I only had two or three from a street vendor and thought they were pretty bad, but not disgusting. So I tried them twice more at friends', just steamed or boiled. By the end I was eating them by the spoonful. I likened it to what it would be like if you could make popcorn soup. A sort of squishy popcorn soup.
I tried the silkworm cocoons in Vietnam, I ate around 10 of them, they wernt that bad apart from the skin which didnt break up.
I also Tried dog meat in Cambodia, as I only eat chicken I found this a bit harder to eat. I had barbaqued dog rib and a bit of leg meat, it was okay until I ate a charred bit which had so much flavour I couldnt take anymore. However the locals in Vietnam told me the best dog meat to eat is boiled, the flavour isnt as strong and its soft and good to eat. A lot of people I spoke to said that dog was their favorite food, Im guessing this will be the same as Korea =)
Chicken feet is quiet common in our country too (Philippines) haha lol but I don't really like it, mainly bec of having the mentality that who knows where that chicken have stepped on while it's alive XD lol
and chicken blood, yes. It's called 'betamax', one of the local streetfood 🙂 it's basically a grilled blood, and it might sound revolting, but it actually tastes a bit sweet and really soft with a little burnt taste (depending on how it's grilled). It looks like this http://www.blogalag.com/photos/uncategorized/2008/02/12/20080211betamax5x.jpg 🙂
Oh another weird local delicacy is called Isaw (barbequed chicken / pig intestines — I prefer chicken. lol) The intestines are cleaned, turned inside out, and cleaned again, repeating the process several times. They are then either boiled, then grilled, or immediately grilled on sticks. It's quite popular, and you can choose variety of dips, sweet, sweet and spicy, etc! 🙂 http://www.flickr.com/photos/imgianamp/6126650154/
and yeah, when I get to Korea, I'd definitely try variety of food! (but maybe I'll try to stay away from the silkworms and stingray XD ) haha I can't wait!
Apart the first I can try the others XD
Suggestion for good restaurants in Seul ?
Look also to this horror of the italian cousine cheese with living worms :
I am going to try all.. but I am going to feel sorry for the live octopus:( lol
I've always been extremely intrigued by the live octopus. Definitely something I want to try!! The rest, I'm not so sure… 🙂
When I was in Korea I ate sliced live octopus at Yagalchi market in Busan. That was awesome 😀 especially for guy from Poland. Unusual meal hah!
ewwww bailey and jacob im not a bully
I cant wait to have that for dinner tonight
While the list is interesting, I've noticed since I began watching dramas a few years ago that Korean food and American southern foods are quite similar. Having grown up in Arkansas, we often, and still do, ate pigs feet. We boild them and roast them and I especially like them pickled. We also eat chicken feet…as a matter of fact just picked some up at the farmers market. I've also noticed from watching the dramas that Koreans eat a lot of pork neck bones. There is a scene in a drama where there are eating them and my sister and I marvelled and discussed going on a food tour of Korea….we'd feel right at home. Was watching a scene in the reality show, "2 Days 1 Night" where they went to pick "turnip leaves"……known to us southerners as "turnip greens!" I would feel right at home eating lots of Korean food!
Jokbal is one of the foods I really want to try in the k drama I do I do it like instantly became something to try. it actually looks really delicious when its cut up so that's why I really want to try it. I wouldn't try pigs feet in America though
oh this is really bad
never have this food^^
thanks for this news~~~
i cant even smell this food and korean peaple it this food???
Chicken feet is also a famous streetfood here in Philippines ^^
But the fermented stingray and that ALIVE octopus is just a NO✖
I don't have enough courage to eat that.
Fermented Stingray – Hongeo (홍어) is very common down in the city of Kwangju.
You forgot to mention soondae and haejangguk! Blood sausage and blood soup are sure to be considered "bizarre". 🙂
Those poor octopi. I get the whole "you have to kill em to eat em" but the proximity of death / the freshness of death is so, so sad, especially when it's the teeth doing the killing. Don't they look at you with their sad little beady octopus eyes before inserting them in your mouth? Do the tentacles cover your face as they make their last attempt at survival? I'm being (kinda) facetious, but seriously, I guess this isn't considered animal cruelty at all, eh? I am coming from a very, very vegetarian, vegan, pro-animal, no animal suffering POV. Don't kill me. Just asking.

In The Sackett Brand, Louis L Amour spins the story of a courageous man who must face overwhelming odds to track down a killer.
Tell Sackett and his bride, Ange, came to Arizona to build a home and start a family. But on Black Mesa something goes terribly wrong. Tell is ambushed and badly injured. When he finally manages to drag himself back to where he left Ange, she is gone. Desperate, cold, hungry, and with no way to defend himself, Tell is stalked like a wounded animal. Hiding from his attackers, his rage and frustration mounting, he tries to figure out who the men are, why they are trying to kill him, and what has happened to his wife. Discovering the truth will be risky. And when he finally does, it will be their turn to run.
About the Author
Louis L'Amour (1908-1988) was an American author whose Western stories are loved the world over. Born in Jamestown, North Dakota, he was the most decorated author in the history of American letters. In 1982 he was the first American author ever to be awarded a Special National Gold Medal by the United States Congress for lifetime literary achievement, and in 1984 President Reagan awarded him the Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian honor in the nation. He was also a recipient of the Theodore Roosevelt Rough Rider Award.

Tippecanoe Co. historical group's curator works to preserve the past for future generationsBreaking News
LAFAYETTE, Ind. — John M. Harris spends each Tuesday and Wednesday quietly working in a small office surrounded by shelves stacked from floor to ceiling with boxes containing ... well, that's what Harris is finding out.
Outside his office, a much larger room is filled with stacks of boxes, filing cabinets and a conference table for sorting. Throughout the Frank Arganbright Genealogy and Research Center, items are in storage -- items someone at some point considered historically significant.
Nestled in his small office on the second floor of the center on 10th Street across from the Moses Fowler House, Harris' task is to computerize the Tippecanoe County Historical Association's hard-copy card catalogs and computerize years of donated items that escaped being enumerated or completely slipped through the cracks....

Fighter Pilot
Physical Danger
Who wants to play, "How Many Ways Can a Fighter Pilot Die?" Let's see, now, for those keeping track at home, there's:
- Plummeting to Your Death
- Blowing Up on Takeoff/Landing
- Crashing into Another Plane
- Passing Out from G-Forces and Crashing into a Mountain
- Surface-to-Air Missiles
- Dogfighting
- Alien Attack on Your Base (hey, we're just saying it could happen)
And so many more. If you're in the military, there's always going to be an extreme level of physical danger that most civilians never experience. If, added to that, you're buckling yourself into a jet-propelled death machine loaded up with a dozen different kinds of munitions, the danger zone may actually be all around you.

The weather can sometimes be unpredictable, changing from day to day. However, most days are very temperate, and the marine layer of the Bay keeps the heat at bay! The change in seasons is noticeable, but very pleasant. Great foliage accents the nice weather.
Fresh air! No pollution! Blue skies. However, Berkeley does have its rainy season and hot days.
You can't really complain being in the Bay area. The weather does throw me off sometimes because it's not exactly what I'm used to. I'm from southern California, so it's not the same.
Never too hot or too cold. Not a huge temperature difference throughout the year, but a large difference throughout the day. Wear scarves and cardaigns.

Sorry, there are no reviews.
While most students are pleased with Berkeley's weather, many Southern California students like to brag that the weather at home is much better. This is because even the sunniest days here can start out a little gray, and the wind makes the sunny town feel cooler. Berkeley is a place where you'll need sunglasses, flip-flops, an umbrella, and an overcoat, no matter how beautiful the weather seems while moving in.
During spring and fall, the weather is sunny and warm, without being too hot. Most students walk around in tank tops and flip-flops, and many sit in the sun between classes. Still, if you wake up and it's sunny, bring a sweater to class because it could be chilly out in an hour or freezing by night. In winter, rain makes the town seem much gloomier. Sidewalks here are generally cracked and uneven, creating puddle after puddle. Thanksgiving break is a good opportunity to swap out summer clothes for more pants and a warm overcoat, since finals can become a lot harder when you're wet and cold. That said, even these "extremes" are not that bad. The weather is seen far more as a perk than a problem, and most students just use winter to become excited for spring.

The swirling emotions and quickly evolving job descriptions hardly has allowed Luke Walton to think.
Two days after nursing frustration over the Golden State Warriors losing Game 7 of the 2016 NBA Finals to the Cleveland Cavaliers, Luke Walton morphed from Warriors assistant to Lakers head coach. So, Walton has not exactly ironed out specifics on if he will be coach the Lakers' summer league team, or who will represent his coaching staff.
Yet, Walton has determined he will be "heavily involved in practice" when the Lakers begin summer league play on July 8 in Las Vegas. He believed he will fill out his coaching staff "before summer league starts." Walton also has hired Brian Shaw as his lead assistant, while player development coaches Mark Madsen, Thomas Scott and J.J. Outlaw have worked with players at the Lakers' practice facility.
"These are all things that normally would've been taken care of by now," Walton said. "But because of the circumstances and the Lakers being so great about not pressing me, I had work to do. We're still slowly working on it."
The Lakers hired Walton on April 29, less than a week after Byron Scott was fired amid a combined 38-126 record. But Walton would not assume his new duties until the Warriors were eliminated in the NBA playoffs. Lakers general manager Mitch Kupchak joked Walton could have started earlier, Golden State trailed the Oklahoma City Thunder, 3-1, in the Western Conference Finals and led the Cleveland Cavaliers, 3-1, in the NBA Finals.
"A lot of times the best way to get on and let go of something that is really painful is to jump into your next challenge," Kupchak said.

"It's working now!"

Sean played it in the car one day, while driving with Andrew. After listening to it for a while, Andrew asked, "Is that the Mercedes song?"

Sean said yes.

When the song ended, Andrew asked, "Can I have the Kia song?"

Andrew suddenly asked Sean, "Is that your Lo?"

"My what?" Then he saw what Andrew was referring to and realised what Andrew meant.

"Yes," replied Sean.

When I caught up with them, Sean told me what had happened. I couldn't help asking Andrew what it was.

"Daddy's," he replied.

"Daddy's what?"

"Lo."

"Milo?"

"Daddy's."

"Is that also your Lo?"

Yes, Milo," placing his little hand on his chest.

"I'm be angry!"

That's what Andrew says a lot these days. The slightest thing sets him off. When he says that, we'd tell him, "Okay!"

"Don't say 'Okay'!"

"All right."

"Don't say 'All right'!"

Nothing satisfies him. Then he catches sight of some passing car and goes "Volkswagen!" or "Ford!" or whatever it may be. That cures him in a jiffy. He's really mad about cars at the moment.

Another time, Rachel was whining in the car because she didn't get the song she wanted on the stereo.

"Seriously, Rachel!"

We all stared! Andrew! That must have been picked up from Sarah.

Or he might go, "I suppose," if you ask him what he thought.

He might also put a knowing finger on his chin and say, "Hmm, let me think."

If the kid doesn't get something that he wants very much, he goes, "Silly day!"

So if I tell him that he cannot play with my tablet anymore, he'll frown at me and say, "Tsk! Silly day! Mommy!" in very emphatic tones.

--------

We know that the rubbish truck is at the next block collecting trash when its unmistakable whine comes on. You can see it from the living room windows.

Andrew runs to the windows, calling out, "Ruddish truck! Give me back my pacifier!"

Now that Rachel is going to a new kindergarten along Thomson Road, we drive her there every morning. Andrew often comes along and we sometimes take him for prata at the Casuarina prata place on our way home, since we have to pass it by anyway.

Sean being on a work trip, I was doing the sending one morning. Somehow it got around to Rachel trying to get Andrew to sing "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star." She asked him to sing it a few times, but without success. She tried another approach.

Rachel: Andrew, Andrew! Sing "twing"!

Andrew: Kel.

Rachel: Twing.

Andrew: Kel.

Rachel: Li.

Andrew: Tel, star.

Rachel: How.

Andrew: I.

Rachel: Won.

Sean is away on a work trip and Rachel began talking about him being on holiday. I quickly corrected her, telling her that 'Daddy is not on holiday, he's working, he's gone to Hanoi to teach people, and that's called "training".'

She commented, 'Oh, like training a dog right?'

I didn't think it would be quite correct to reply with a resounding 'Yes!', so I just repeated that he would be training people, and they would be using computers.

She said, 'Yes I know, training, like when you're training dogs and cats.'

Cats! I gave up.

One of Andrew's favourite phrases these days:

"Stop it.... LAH!!"

And he'll say it over and over again when he's particularly displeased, to the verge of tears if it happens to be a case of him not getting what he wants.

The songs he asks for at bedtime now are:

1. Bicycle Som (songngngng!) a.k.a." Bicycle Race" by Queen
2. Dye-soar Som a.k.a. "Walking In Your Footsteps" by The Police
3. Gott Low a.k.a. "I Want To Break Free" by Queen

I had already put his diaper on him but he was still not dressed, and still drinking milk from his bottle. The three older ones were with him and we left them to say prayers together, dress him, get his bottle and towel out of the room after he's done, hang up his waterproof rubber mat, lay him down, switch off the light, slide the door shut and hook on the latch.

When we got back I asked Sarah how it went and she said he was pretty good. She said he said something about 'chicken.' After laying him down, he tried to get out of the room, but she put him back and quickly turned off the light, and he settled down. As she left the room she heard him say, "Thank youm, Jiejie.'

We're trying to get Andrew off the pacifier now that he's nearly two and a half.

First try, I said to him, 'Does Daddy suck pacifier? No! Does Korkor suck pacifier? No! Does Jiejie suck pacifier? No! So, Andrew doesn't need pacifier, ok? You're a big boy now!' And I took the pacifier away and left the room. He didn't protest while I was still there, but in a little while I could hear him weeping in the room! Gosh. I went in and found him lying on his back in bed, tears streaming down his face to his ears. Couldn't bear it so I gave him his pacifier back and he promptly went to sleep.

Next try, it was a Saturday afternoon and Sean convinced Andrew to throw his pacifier away after his afternoon nap. That night, no tears, but there was an hour of singing and talking to himself that we could hear through his door! When he woke up the next morning, he rushed out of his room to look in the wastepaper basket where he had thrown the pacifier. Haha. We had kept it aside of course. Just in case.

Following night, singing again, but not as long. So, looks like he's done!

At IKEA last night, a man noticed Rachel and asked about her. We talked about her condition for a while, and agreed to his offer to pray over her. After he had done so, he asked Rachel if she could feel anything. She nodded. "What did she feel?" "Kindness" was her answer. That, to me, is more inspired and powerful than any physical healing.

The kids were having porridge for dinner one night (while Sean and I went out to Alforno's at East Coast Road for grilled rack of lamb and crabmeat farfalle in tomato cream sauce with chilli padi - haha).

Before we left, I looked over to see how Rachel was doing. She told me that when she had porridge for lunch in school, her school aunty put bread in the porridge.

I thought, 'Bread? In porridge?' Ah! Croutons! So I asked Rachel, 'Oh, you mean like little cubes of toast?'

She replied, 'No, it's like the skin of the bread. And it's round.'

Gosh, of course, yu zhar kway!

She has been physically capable of doing it for some time now, but was just never confident enough. After practising a bit by herself in the baby pool where she could easily put her feet down on the floor anytime she wanted to, just letting herself drift in prone position, she actually entered the big pool by herself and swam to me! Six years and nearly four months old.

When I cheered for her, Sophie said, 'I could also do that what.' I reminded Sophie that she could do that when she was about four years old, but it has taken Rachel this long to do it. Did she want her never to?

Sophie has a great propensity to be jealous of Rachel. Similarly, Sarah has this thing about Sophie where she must always chime in with something derogatory about her whenever we are admonishing Sophie.

I hope when we look back on this, we will one day laugh about it and see how well they have come to love each other and grown out of their childish jealousies.

As we were finishing lunch, Andrew suddenly said, 'Rachel, want, play, Andrew, ice cream?' We knew immediately that he was asking Rachel if she wanted to play with him the ice cream stacking game that he likes.

He says 'Ridena' for 'Ribena;' 'Raddit' for 'Rabbit.' He can perfectly pronounce 'Ri,' 'Be,' and 'Na' separately, and 'Ra' and 'Bit,' but say them together correctly he cannot.

He calls Sarah 'Rahrah.'

Sophie he also calls 'Rahrah;' when corrected he'll say 'Iffy.'

Rachel is 'Chehcheh;' Matt is 'Korkor.'

He has no problems with Daddy, Mommy and Aunty.

He'll frown, cross his short chubby arms and give an emphatic 'Hmp!' if he can't get what he wants.

Andrew keeps me healthy! Every morning, he and Sean come back just in time after sending Sarah and Sophie to school to see Rachel onto her school bus. Matthew would have left much earlier to go to school by train and bus, leaving the little boy alone with his parents for the next hour or two.

We often walk about the estate, stopping to play at one of the two neighbouring playgrounds. He can climb a ladder by himself now, and go up the steps and across the bridge to the highest slide that he comes swiftly down, without the slightest hesitation.

When we get home again, sometimes I feel lazy and want to crawl back to bed or just laze about. Andrew, without fail, will ask for 'egg!' 'bread!' 'tea!' I feel bad to refuse, so I get myself into the kitchen to pop a couple of slices of bread into the toaster, scramble an egg in the microwave, and drown tea leaves with hot water in a teacup.

It's cosy and sociable having breakfast by the floor-length windows of our sixteenth floor apartment. I tear small pieces of toast for Andrew and butter each piece before putting it into his little bowl. He's getting better at eating scrambled egg with a spoon every day, in his highchair next to me, while I slip him a spoonful of sweetened tea or coffee every now and then.

It's a real privilege to have mornings with Andrew. In a way I hope it makes up for the fact that he will have twelve years less of my time than Matthew, assuming that I should leave this earth before either of them.

Then we found that June is the hatching of the Highland midges, bloodsucking biting insects that I will certainly not be fond of. So we thought we might go earlier in April, since May is full of the children's birthdays as well as mid-year exams and this is an important academic year for Sarah taking the Primary School Leaving Examinations. But April would be way too cold for tropical me. Shelving Scotland for another time, we thought, let's just do a cheaper nearby thing. We have been going to Malacca a few times already, so I suggested visiting Angkor Wat, something I was sure Sean would like. Before I knew it, he had booked the flights and sussed out a really nice hotel! So we went.

Sean's beautiful photos are in his facebook album.

We stayed at a lovely quiet spa resort. Navutu Dreams is about ten minutes from Siem Reap's town centre by tuk-tuk, and 25 minutes away from the Angkor Archaeological Park. Our three-day park pass was fully utilized, and if we had had more time I would have wanted to see more temples.

It was much better than I had expected! I was prepared for a terribly sweaty, itchy, possibly soggy and unpleasant time, but the ruins were truly impressive and awesome. Some were simply huge and grand (Angkor Wat), others felt tensely ominous (Bayon); Ta Prohm nestled within the trees' embrace as if it had grown itself out of the ground, and Preah Khan was a veritable labyrinth of concentric ever-expanding and contracting squares of doorways, corridors and chambers.

Cambodian food is the best Southeast Asian fare! Milder than Thai but richer than Vietnamese - a wonderful balance of flavour, spices and aromas. Sean and I have even indulged in the idea of starting a Cambodian restaurant in Singapore as there simply isn't one here at all, and it would be such fun to decorate it in the temple-ruin-style and classic Cambodian icons.

It's such a short hop away, a mere 2 hours by plane, I really do think that every Singaporean should visit.

'Open only to Singaporeans and Singapore residents, 200 rookies will be randomly selected by ballot for the Singapore GP Karting Training Programme. These successful candidates will be trained in the fundamentals of racing with specialised theory and practical workshops from 18 to 20 June. Participants who show potential will then test their mettle in the Singapore GP's Karting Championship on 21 June.

The Championship winners for each category (14 - 17 years old and 18 - 21 years old) will win over S$14,000 worth of prizes each, including a year-long karting scholarship sponsored by KF1 Pte Ltd and Singapore GP Pte Ltd, consisting of practice sessions, race gear and entry to karting competitions in Singapore.'

Matthew is lucky enough to have been selected! Terribly excited for him. Some drama was involved as they had sent the selection notification to Matt's email instead of ours and he had not checked his email until the reply date was over! But they were good enough to still take him in, so now he's off and I hope he wins the championship!

Sarah said, 'I'll stick to NOTHING!!'

That's because she had tried go-karting together with Matt and has subsequently often referred to it as the worst ten minutes of her life.Lillighthttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-6439125.post-56671202947965133792015-04-06T15:09:00.004+08:002015-04-06T15:09:53.398+08:00The Sleep Adventures of AndrewThis little boy is now too tall for his cot and so we have transitioned him to sleep on a mattress on the floor. He is rather younger than his older siblings when they did the same; he's not yet two.

The first day, at nap time, he didn't keep coming out of the room. Instead, he played quietly inside, taking all the clothes out of the wardrobe drawers, turning on the nightlight, fiddling with the toy kitchen set, and nobody knew. Helper found him sitting in the middle of a thrashed room, and Grandma helped fold back all the clothes while visiting us that afternoon.

Andrew particularly likes the wardrobe drawers, but he knows now that he is not to take the clothes out. So he merely keeps slamming them, if left alone and awake. The only thing is to stay in there with him until he falls asleep, and then creep quietly out. Sometimes I accidentally rattle the lock and he wakes up, so we have to start all over again, waiting for him to fall asleep once more. It's a very good time to pray the rosary!

The other morning, before sun up and when only our helper was awake and pottering about in the kitchen, she suddenly found Andrew there in the kitchen beside her! Quite a shock it was.

Another time, our helper had woken up and was on her way to the bathroom when she saw Andrew sitting quietly in the dark on a floor cushion in the living room. She led him to my room and I went back with him to lie down.

Once, in the middle of the night, I heard my bedroom door opening, followed by silence. I got up to investigate and found the door closed. Opening it, Andrew was standing outside in the dark corridor. I didn't feel like lying on the floor in his room, so I brought him to bed with me instead. I put him between his Daddy and me. Daddy was sleeping but suddenly sat up in the dark - he later told me Andrew was tickling him! Andrew also sat up, and to his Daddy he said, "Hullo!" We told him to lie down again and go to sleep, and he did.

This was followed by PM Dawn's "Set Adrift On Memory Bliss." After that, the DJ recited the usual Class 95fm tagline, "The Best Mix Of Music."

Rachel immediately went, 'It's not the best songs of music at all!"

She didn't like the PM Dawn song!Lillighthttp://firstname.lastname@example.com

Marion County Recount Ends in Victory for Garcia
Written by Your 5News Team
Last updated on June 04, 2014 @ 7:13PM
Created on June 04, 2014 @ 6:40PM
The recount in Marion County has finally come to an end, and Rick Garcia will be the Democratic candidate on the ballot for Marion County Commission this fall.
Garcia was the challenger in this tight race against the incumbent Butch Tennant. He won by one vote on election night, but a canvass the following week left him behind by two. At that point he requested a recount of two precincts, which revealed an error from election night and put him five votes ahead.
After Tennant had two precincts manually recounted and absentee ballots from five more precincts recounted Wednesday afternoon, the total was unchanged, leaving Garcia five votes ahead.
Garcia will go up against Republican and former Fairmont mayor Bill Burdick in November for the seat.

I have set up a maintenance Network via OpenVPN. However, when I log into a computer (e.g. via remote desktop) and someone else is using it at the same time I have either to accept that she is able to access the VPN once I established the connection, or I need to force her to log off.
Both is suboptimal.
Is it possible to set ACLs to NICs? Or otherwise disable the access to the network for a certain user? I need it on XP and 7, but a solution only working for one of them is already a big enhancement.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Anonymous Remail with Mixmaster
Anonymous remail protects the sender's identity against potential eavesdroppers. The Mixmaster protocol gives users a mature technology for anonymous remail, and the text-based Mixmaster client is an example of a free remailer application.
When Johan Helsingius started up an anonymization service for email back in 1993, he could hardly have anticipated the kind of trouble he would be in for. Despite, or maybe because of, the hostile reactions, Johan is now renowned for his pioneering work. In the early 90s, mailing lists and USENET discussion groups had left the phase in which they mainly concentrated on scientific and computer-related subjects. USENET also supported a number of highly controversial political and religious discussions. Because these discussions were of interest to secret services and employers, users were looking for a way of expressing themselves anonymously. Johan Helsingius developed software for depersonalizing email messages and installed the software on his server.

I am getting problems with the link from NextGen to my database.
I get a message that the database has been updated but the information I have entered does not appear on the page. If I leave the page and do something else for a while the information may be there when I come back. 50% of the time it is not.
I suspect the problem is with the server and the webhost and I am beginning to think that the only solution is to go and edit the tables directly in PHP admin.
Has anyone any idea of possible causes and what workarounds I can use ?

Alessandra Ambrosio in Level 99 Liza Moto Skinny Jeans
Alessandra Ambrosio was snapped wearing a pair of Level 99 Liza Moto Skinny jeans in Heatherette Matador while grabbing some coffee.
I like that Alessandra kept her outfit simple by pairing these with neutral colors, which really makes the jeans the focal point. I like that these have some great detailing too, like the back of the leg seams, which I think are a unique take on the moto style trend. I also love the putty gray color, which is a more casual way to wear the waxed trend than black. You can buy these jeans from Level 99 for $142.

Alessandra Ambrosio in WILDFOX Marianne Jeans in Spellbound
Alessandra Ambrosio was spotted heading to the nail salon in Santa Monica, California. The Brazilian model kept it casual with a pair of WILDFOX Marianne Jeans in Spellbound with a printed top and some sandals.
Alessandra has been a fan of WILDFOX for a while now. She has worn many of their older jeans before and has been a fan of their clothing since it first came out; so I am not surprised to see that she has given their new collection a test run. You can click here to purchase these jeans from the WILDFOX website for $198.
Alessandra Ambrosio in Hudson LeeLoo in Black Waxed & Quilted Leather
A masked Alessandra Ambrosio was spotted carrying her son at a Halloween party in Brentwood, California. The Brazilian model wore a pair of the new Hudson LeeLoo in Black Waxed with Quilted Leather and some boots.
I really like that Alessandra chose a pair of higher boots to pair with these pants opposed to an ankle style. I think they work with the overall look flawlessly, but I do think that these jeans would work really well with the Saint Laurent boots that she recently wore. There is a toughness to them, yet they still feel refined. You can click here to purchase these jeans from Piprelime for $395.
