The LaFollette Middle School girls basketball camp happened from June 6 through June 9 at LMS.
In the early part of June at the soccer fields behind LaFollette Elementary, the groundwork was being laid for the future of soccer in the county.
CLINTON — The Campbell County High School Lady Cougars varsity basketball team won two out of three scrimmage games played on Tuesday night at Anderson County High School.
It's a place that ultimately the Cougars would love to return to this year.
Campbell County's Seth Roberts and Dawson Hembree were the big winners at a high school fishing tournament, the Bass Pro Shops classic, May 28.
Itt was possible on Saturday that Campbell County High School fishing coach Gabe Keen would go from one weigh-in to another.

Ceres Facts for Kids
Bode's Law predicted a planet between Mars and Jupiter. The Sky Police were looking for it, but Giuseppe Piazzi found it on New Year's Day 1801. Then someone found another one. And another one. We know of hundreds of thousands of asteroids now. Discover Ceres - planet, asteroid and dwarf planet.
Cetus the Sea Monster
Whale or monster? Benign plankton-eating creature or terrifying colossus, a hybrid with gaping jaws and the powerful scaly coils of a sea serpent? This is the constellation Cetus. The monster fell to the hero Perseus, but the stars and deep sky objects are impressive.
Chemical Cosmos - book review
"The Chemical Cosmos: A Guided Tour" is an astronomy book about chemistry - or perhaps a chemistry book about astronomy. It's an engrossing guided tour that will take you from the baby Universe through the first stars, the formation of solar systems and to our search for the origins of life.
Choosing and Using a Telescope
You've learned about the night sky with binoculars and you want to see more. What kind of telescope is good for a beginner? Here are some hints for choosing and using your first telescope. They've come a long way since Galileo first looked up through a telescope.
Christmas in the skies
Christmas is a special day with a magic of its own. A Christmas eclipse is a great treat and centuries ago a long-awaited comet finally showed up on Christmas day. On the other hand, imagine spending the holidays a quarter of a million miles from home, as the crew of Apollo 8 did.
Citizen Science in the Electronic Age
How many, and what kinds of birds are there around? How do we classify a million galaxies in sky survey images? How dark is the sky? Citizen scientists help to find out all of these things - and more. You could be a citizen scientist too.
Columbus and the Flat Earth Myth
Doesn't everyone know that in the 15th century people thought the Earth was flat? And that brave Christopher Columbus sailed westward from Spain to get to Asia to show that the Earth was round? Once I'd have answered Yes to both of these questions, but it turns out that they are myths.
Coma Berenices Berenice's Hair
A dazzling queen of ancient Egypt was the inspiration for the constellation Coma Berenices. It's small and dim, but contains the Galactic North Pole and multitudes of galaxies.
Ill omens, objects of fascination, bringers of life, key to the ancient history of the Solar System. Comets are all of these things. Find out more about these small Solar System bodies.
Comets - Facts for Kids
People once thought that comets were the messengers of major disasters. Today we know that they are visitors from the most distant regions of the Solar System. Other stars have exoplanets and they seem to have exocomets too.

Ray, all, obviously there are few CW stations on! I've worked my share on FM and SSB tho. On AO-07, only CW is really effective as the "gargling" is very severe but the CW gets through well. I've been pounding away on 145.945, just slight clear of the SSB folks! K5OE is doing well on AO-40 CW but I thought we might try these LEO's just for today and using SKN until 0000 UTC.

Deficits, Interest Rates, and Taxes: Myths and Realities
June 29, 2004
In this Policy Analysis, the author argues that the federal government's swing from budget surpluses to budget deficits has raised concerns about possible negative economic effects. Some economists have argued that deficits will raise interest rates, reduce economic growth, increase trade deficits, and possibly create a financial crisis.
This paper examines those claims and finds that they are not supported by the evidence.

An out-of-work pharmaceuticals saleswoman is the winner of the CBS reality television show "Survivor: Samoa."
Van Buren, Ark., resident Natalie White won the $1 million prize Sunday night by outwitting, outplaying and outlasting an oil company owner and a doctor in the final episode.
Photos: "Survivor: Samoa"
The 26-year-old White was accused by jury members of riding the coattails of Dayton, Texas, oil millionaire Russell Hantz, who finished second. She says she recognized early in the game that aggressive women were being eliminated and she had to maintain a low profile.
Hantz was the mastermind behind most eliminations and was thought by some players to be a shoo-in for the win.
Los Angeles doctor Mick Trimming was the third finalist.

This article uses cross-country data to empirically investigate through which channel legal origin can influence antitrust effectiveness. The evidence shows that the adaptability channel (legal flexibility) is more important for explaining antitrust effectiveness than the political channel (authority independence). The evidence also suggests that countries in which a judicial decision is a source of law will provide more legal flexibility and will adapt more easily to changing economic circumstances. They will therefore also have better enforcement of antitrust rules. On the other hand, a legal tradition that takes no formal notice of legal precedent will make the competition environment much less predictable. To the extent that these findings are true, one would expect competition agencies in Common law countries to perform better than those in Civil law countries.

Notwithstanding all of the money already invested in security and privacy: privacy as surveyed is in decline and global communication infrastructure is increasingly insecure. Why is this so, and what can we do about it? Three concepts explain the problem of relating capital to security and illuminate the path to improved results: 1) definitions and outcomes of investments in privacy and security have been risk based and speculative. 2) expenditures for speculative risk abatement tend to compete poorly with alternative allocations, such as spending on quantified risks and spending for profit. 3) product budgeting has yet to fully embrace the notion that privacy and security are core to form and function. Security and privacy have not been monetized as elements of brand. This paper explains these concepts, relates them to the allocation of investment capital, and recommends actions for companies, their R & D executives, and boards to enhance success in the market.

Let's keep pushing for diplomatic end
Published: Tuesday, December 19, 2006 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, December 19, 2006 at 12:00 a.m.
To The Editor: It's painfully evident, but not unexpected, that Bush is intransigently balking at the bipartisan Iraq Study Group's recommended diplomacy.
Never one to admit a mistake, Dubya's insistence on "staying the course" blindly precludes any form of intercourse with the likes of Syria and Iran.
But the group's contention is quite right that there's everything to gain and nothing to lose through comprehensive diplomatic discussions.
The group's report calls for "a robust diplomatic effort to establish an international support structure intended to stabilize Iraq and ease tensions in other countries in the region."
While our nation awaits "the decider's" announcement of how he'd have us change direction to get out of the mess his war of choice put us in, let's not expect too much.
After all, as many have said, we're suffering from the machinations of the worst president ever.
Whatever may be forthcoming from the Oval Office, don't take it at face value.
Better to keep the pressure on with calls to Congress and the White House, letters to the editor and other actions to diplomatically effect an end to the occupation of Iraq before the toll of our dead and wounded military sons and daughters reaches 25,000.

Some time back google did an analysis of Git and Mercurial. You can read it online on http://code.google.com/p/support/wiki/DVCSAnalysis
I am using etckeeper on both debian and ubuntu. It's painless. Just do a sudo etckeeper init and you're done! Actually, you may need to edit /etc/etckeeper/etckeeper.conf to check that hg is selected as your VCS command. But that's all that you need to do. Once that is done etckeeper will begin tracking every change that you make to files in /etc and ...
Well, I started with this tutorial. After I've finished that I made the following additional changes on the server (Windows 2008): Configured IIS to use SSL; Disabled anonymous authentication for the site; Enabled Basic and Windows authentication for the site; Configured NTFS permissions on the repository folder. Also need to add the following lines to ...
I am running Apache2 on ubuntu 10.04 — same problem and thanks for the solution.

You may want to read this question on stackoverflow: What are the relative strengths and weaknesses of Git, Mercurial, and Bazaar?
In short, yes. You can move the .hg repository folder and then pull a new copy of your source.
Tip is the most recent changeset in the repository. Default is a branch. Tip is a special Tag (a named changeset) which always refers to the most recently changed Head.
Ok, I wasn't far off and I found a great resource which steps through the exact steps. http://www.boredworkers.com/2009/08/24/script-tips-ssh-key-for-apache/ > sudo mkdir /var/www/.ssh > sudo chown -R apache:nobody /var/www/.ssh > sudo -u apache ssh-keygen -t rsa I think I need to investigate the correct switches to use instead of relying on ...
Bash maintains a cache of locations of executables in $PATH. You had hg in /usr/bin at some point, and ran it from that shell. Now you've removed /usr/bin/hg. You need to tell your running shell to forget this location: hash hg A new shell wouldn't have this problem, since the cache isn't shared between shell instances.
I think Apache is a great way of sharing hg repositories. Not only does the hgweb.wsgi script give one the possibility of running multiple repositories, but it allows developers to conveniently cross-reference the project source code by path or revision from a definitive source. The following procedure will give an easy way of publishing a repository, and ...
http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/CGIinstall says under "Setup a cgi script to refer to your repository" Copy the hgweb.cgi script from the mercurial sources to /var/www/cgi-hg/index.cgi So it appears you need to download the source version to get that file.
This is not an Apache change, but you have to set it in the Mercurial repository itself. You can setup hooks that run a script before accepting a push into your repository. In the scripts triggered by the pretxncommit or pretxnchangegroup hooks you can check if those changes create a new head and refuse them if they do. See the chapter on hooks in the Hg ...
This situation is fairly well documented. Check out the "Collaborating with other people" section of the very useful HG Book. In short, you can configure ssh access to the Mercurial repository, and limit access to specific users. Some more reference guides: Multiple Committers Guide TortoiseHg
You don't want to have the [web] section in the hgweb.config file. Instead you want to an individual [web] config in each repository, using the files /home/mercurial/repo01/.hg/hgrc /home/mercurial/repo02/.hg/hgrc etc... Myself I've found the publishing repositories wiki page to be a good tutorial.
You should use limit_except: limit_except GET HEAD { auth_basic 'Restricted'; auth_basic_user_file /path/to/userfile; } It works since nginx 0.8.48, in older versions there was a bug where fastcgi_pass was not inherited inside the limit_except block.

I only use Git, so I wil try at least to help you with that: If you do not see any trouble administrating your repos via the command line, gitosis should do the trick pretty nicely.

I think what you are likely missing is that it is perfectly allowable to create a .hg/hgrc file inside each repository, and those files can contain allow_push and allow_read entries.
There is an allow_read directive that can be added to a repository hgrc that works the same way as allow_push. If specified, and the user accessing the hgwebdir CGI script is not in the list, the project doesn't even show up at the index page.
If you're looking for some intergrated system that can work on windows, unix, and authenticate to AD try out RhodeCode http://rhodecode.org. It's kind of local instance of bitbucket that serves repositories. It comes with permission system and easy user management.
Well, this Redmine feature request gives it away: Currently, new changeset information is only fetched when you view the repository. So if you update an issue, and mention a revision in it, it doesn't get hyperlinked until someone has viewed the repository.

Ches Martin has a nice blog with details of how he setup Mercurial complete with what you are asking. <LimitExcept GET> require valid-user </LimitExcept> This snippet from an Apache config is part of what is needed to allow anonymous pull (or browsing if published via hgweb) but still require a pass for push.
Yes, you can do what you suggest. Modern versions of Mercurial don't really care where the working copies are stored — they can be stored on a local disk or a network filesystem. We've had some problems in the past (before version 1.7.1) where Mercurial would fail to break hardlinks in repositories stored on network filesystems. The problem is that two ...

I'm trying hard to figure this out. I basically just want to add an image (external.png) to the end of links that are external. I'm putting the image in a directory called img stored in my wordpress theme. If my src to the image is direct it works, but I'd rather use:
<?php bloginfo('template_directory') ?>
When putting it right into the after() didn't work I tried this:
$(document).ready(function() {
var templateDir = "<?php bloginfo('template_directory') ?>";
$('a').filter(function() {
return this.hostname && this.hostname !== location.hostname;
}).after('<img src="' + templateDir + '/img/external.png" />');
But that didn't work either. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

European Concerts and Tours
Moreover EMCY organises every year the EuroRadio Youth Concert and the Young Hearts for Music Tour!
Concerts opportunities for EMCY Prize winners in 2016
Aarón Ribas, 1st Prize and EMCY Prize winner of the Concurso Permanente de Jóvenes Intérpretes in 2014 played at the matinee concert Ausgezeichnet! in the framework of the 53th edition of the German national youth music competition Jugend musiziert, along with prize winners of former Jugend musiziert competitions. Aarón performed the Sinfonía Nº6, by Charles-Marie Widor.

The Young Talents on Tour
The 2016 edition of the Young Talents on Tour took place from 8 to 15 March. Flutist Astrid Bjelland, violinist Yanis Grisó, singer Natalia Labourdette Alda, and pianist Gustas Raudonius performed six concerts through Luxembourg and North Rhine-Westphalia.
The concerts were part of the EU programme INTER-NATIONAL net_works+, a training and networking project for organisers of national youth music competitions across Europe. It facilitates the mobility of young people, improves the quality of support systems on local, national and European level and it brings together young people from a range of educational, social and cultural backgrounds.
Gustas remarked: `In Lithuania to have a concert is very difficult and this EMCY tour offers us six concerts in six days - it is a miracle! ´
On 10 March they played their first concert at the European School Luxembourg II in front of a young public. The day after they gave a concert at the Eglise Protestante de Luxembourg, where Astrid said: 'the acoustics, the piano and the venue made it a delight to play there' and another concert in Bertrange at ArcA. These great concerts allowed the Luxembourgish public to discover the young talents.
A warm round of applause, Eglise Protestante, Luxemburg City
Packed hall, Eglise Protestante, Luxemburg City
The musicians then performed at the Iserlohn Musikschule the 13 March, a beautiful venue that Natalia instantly fell in love with. After Iserlohn they played at the Evengelisch-Freikirchlichen in Köln. The tour wrapped up with a concert in Osnabrück, where the musicians seduced the audience and left them wanting to discover more of their talent.
It was an amazing week of musical exchange, personal discovery, learning and good moments. The musicians were elated to participate in this experience. They now have new friends and they have already organized their next meeting together. We wish them all the best!
We would like to thank the Felicitas und Werner Egerland Stiftung for their generous support of the Young Talents on Tour.

Young Talents on Tour through Luxembourg and North-Rhine Westphalia
The Young Talents on Tour took place from March 5 – 8, 2015 with concerts in Luxembourg and North Rhine-Westphalia. The invited artists were the quintet 'Molto Vento', Kalya Kalcheva, Jonas Stark and Lucie Krysatis.
Lucie is a 17 year old talented and peaceful Luxembourgish French horn player. Jonas is a serious and quiet 16 year old German pianist. Kalya is a 19 year old skilled and sparkling Bulgarian pianist. Molto Vento is a wind quintet composed of brilliant and joyful German musicians: Sebastian Steube, Birte Jana Hagen, Sophia Aretz, Katharina Althen and Niklas Plückebaum. While they are all different, they share the same sense of professionalism, hard work and ambition.
For the young artists the tour was a challenging experience. They chose beautiful pieces from 18th to 20th century composers such as Joseph Haydn, Paul-Claude Taffanel, Vitaly Buyanovsky and Nikolay Stoykov, among others. They rehearsed and played in different venues: a high school auditorium, churches, and concert halls. They presented themselves at the beginning of every concert, with humor and freshness, adapting their speeches to the audience. In the end, they met the challenge successfully!
EMCY and the UGDA Music School worked in cooperation with various partners to organise the tour.

PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. (AP) - Allen Funt, the television prankster whose "Candid Camera" thrived on America's willingness to laugh at itself and created a trademark phrase, died. He was 84.
Funt died Sunday at his home here of complications from the 1993 stroke that forced him into retirement, the show reported in a statement.
"Candid Camera," which aired off and on from 1948 to 1990 with Funt as host, secretly filmed people confronted with talking mailboxes or trick coffee cups.
"Smile! You're on 'Candid Camera!' " was the victim's tipoff.
Startled bowlers would see balls returned minus finger holes. A car would roll down a hill and stop, and passers-by asked to check on the trouble would find it lacked an engine.
The show was a precursor of reality-genre television shows such as "Cops" and "World's Most Dangerous Animals."
"People toss around the word 'pioneer' all the time, but Allen Funt was really one of those rare people who was a pioneer," said Michael Naidus, a spokesman for CBS-TV. "He created what has become an entire programming genre."
CBS now airs "Candid Camera," with Funt's son, Peter Funt, and Suzanne Somers as hosts, on Friday evenings.
Funt appeared in many of the gags, along with such regulars over the years as Dorothy Collins (in the 1960s) and comedian and author Fannie Flagg ("Fried Green Tomatoes") in the 1970s. A young Woody Allen appeared in some early shows.
The TV program was born of Funt's "Candid Microphone," a radio show the New York native originated after his Army service in World War II. He was working as an artist for an ad agency but looking for a different job.
"I learned the power of radio watching Eleanor Roosevelt do her show," he recalled in a 1987 interview with The Associated Press. "I used to go up to Hyde Park and hold her papers. I was just a messenger, but it planted the bug of radio in me."
"I got my hands on an old wire recorder that was the forerunner of tape recorders," Funt said. "That's how it began. In those days, we had to lug around these enormous recorders and camera equipment and find a place to conceal them."
The show had its television premiere, still called "Candid Microphone," on ABC in 1948. It bounced from one network to another in its early years, eventually getting picked up by CBS in 1960 for a seven-year run. In 1960-61, it was the seventh-best rated show in the nation.
A syndicated version ran from 1974-78. In the 1989-90 season, CBS aired a number of "Candid Camera" specials featuring Funt and son Peter as co-hosts.
In 1991, Funt produced a new version with comedian Dom DeLuise as host.
Throughout the years, Funt never was trapped by a hidden camera.
"When I'd travel, a location station might try it," Funt told the AP. "But it's awfully hard to catch someone who does this for a living. ... No, nobody ever really turned the tables on me."
Funt was born in New York City and graduated from high school at age 15. He earned a bachelor's degree in fine arts from Cornell University in Ithaca, N.Y.
After his stroke, Funt remained an inspiration to his family, Peter Funt said.
"He endured many hospitalizations and treatments yet did so with good spirit and a ferocious will to live," Peter Funt said in a statement Monday.
Allen Funt is survived by his five children.

Did you get a copy of that conversation from NSA transcripts?
Laughed. Definite laughter, even before looking closely. The Devourer of planets (purple) and cookies (blue) traditional colors work well together. But does shirtwoot! prefer cookies or cookie eating blue fuzzy monsters?
Oh! Memes Galore! pure evil. Delicious, chocolate flavored evil.
Don't forget the milk!
Arggh! I love this! lovelovelovelovelovelove this!
But I just space-bagged a dozen t-shirts because of overcrowding and the wife wouldn't appreciate me picking up a new shirt on the same day!
*sigh* Hopefully it will come up again on a reckoning...
I really need an outfit like that, for when I eat cookies.
I wish this was on a tank top!!
Is he standing on the Milky Way, or drinking it?
Could this be the t-shirt to knock The Binge out of the top 20? Do we have a shirt that can last longer than 208 weeks in the Reckoning? Stay tuned, children!

No Way.
Best shirt in a long while. Great art.
Seriously? The original Galactus was created by Jack Kirby in 1966. Jack was one of the finest artists that the world will ever know, and this shirt is a humorous tribute to one of the great characters ever to be created in the world of comics. Perhaps tomorrow there will be a kitty, or some nice swirly leaves. For today, many of us will enjoy a stroll down memory lane. I'll take one for me, and one for my 8 year old son, a Galactus fan who thinks this is the coolest shirt he's ever seen. Thanks, woot.
I'm not much of a fan of pop culture mashups, but I like this. I think the artistic quality is fine and although cookie monster is pretty popular it's not like you see a whole lot of Galactus references.
It's funny, and it makes sense if you know who Galactus is. It's a comics nerd shirt without the obvious Supes/Bats/Ironman ref.
Does the Devourer realize that planets are a sometimes food??
Love it since the first time I saw it!
Ok if cookie monster is galacticus who would be the silver surfer.

Is there a reason I can't get this in tote form, even though there is an image of a tote? Was that only for one day, perhaps?
Yeah, where is the tote option?

Former real-estate salesman Benedict Bogeaus rechanneled his huckstering skills when he went into independent film production in 1940. His earliest films were an eclectic, eccentric bunch, including The Shanghai Gesture (1941), The Bridge of San Luis Rey (1944), Captain Kidd (1945), and The Macomber Affair (1947). Entering into a partnership with director Allan Dwan in 1950, Bogeaus turned out several offbeat adventure programmers, featuring such second-echelon luminaries as Ronald Reagan, John Payne, Dan Duryea, Virginia Mayo, and Arlene Dahl. Among the best of the Bogeaus-Dwan collaborations were the Byzantine-plotted Western Silver Lode (1954), which co-starred Bogeaus' actress-wife, Dolores Moran, and Slightly Scarlet (1956), an operatic adaptation of James M. Cain's Love's Lovely Counterfeit. Ever the maverick, Bogeaus frequently ran into financing problems, as well as difficulties with the various Hollywood guilds for employing non-union technicians, but he always managed to deliver his product to theaters on the designated release dates. The one notable exception was Benedict Bogeaus' final film, The Most Dangerous Man Alive, which was completed in 1958 but remained on the shelf until 1961. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

The National Weather Service in Amarillo has issued an urban and small stream flood advisory until 5 p.m. for northern Randall and Potter counties.
At 2:13 p.m., weather service meteorologists detected minor flooding in the advisory area. Heavy rain has already fallen over parts of the area with additional brief heavy rains expected.
Runoff from this excessive rainfall will continue to cause minor flooding, especially along small streams and near low water crossings.
Some locations that will experience minor flooding include Amarillo, Valle de Oro, Lake Tanglewood, Bushland and Timbercreek Canyon.
Excessive runoff from this storm will cause minor flooding of small creeks and streams, urban areas, highways, streets and underpasses as well as drainage areas and other low spots, the weather service said.
Motorists should be aware that most flood deaths occur in automobiles, the weather service said. Do not attempt to cross bridges, dips, or other low spots if water is covering the roadway. Never try to cross a flowing stream, even a small one, on foot or in a vehicle, the weather service said.
Do not drive around barricades set up to block water-covered roadways. The barricades are set up for your protection, the weather service said.

A friend of mine asked me this and I wasn't able to come up with a good answer. Basically, you could be watching Comcast television in one room but the internet router is in another room. TV is fine but then the internet cuts out.
With his case, internet and TV come from the same source but a splitter splits internet on one coaxial cable and TV on another.
Any ideas?

Critical Rating: AA

A colorful but ultimately ho-hum box cover accurately portends the content of this latest offering from Heatwave Entertainment. Using Spartan sets, the vid shows us the fantasies of fans who have called a 900 number. A lackluster lead-off segment with Tony Everready and Nicole Jefferson gets things stared. Barely. From there on, hopes for redemption are never fulfilled. Retailers should stock this only if they need to flesh out their all-black section.

Hong Kong Stocks Fall as Commodities Drop; China Mobile Slides
Hong Kong stocks fell, sending the Hang Seng Index to its first weekly drop in almost two months, as commodity producers declined after a stronger dollar cut material prices.
China Petroleum & Chemical Corp., known as Sinopec, sank 2.4 percent, the steepest drop on the Hang Seng Index. A blast at its refinery injured seven workers yesterday, according to a statement posted on Shanghai's work safety administration's website today. Jiangxi Copper Co., China's No. 1 producer of the metal, dropped 2.7 percent. China Mobile Ltd. extended yesterday's fall, retreating 0.7 percent, after posting third-quarter profit that missed analysts' estimates.
The Hang Seng Index slid 0.6 percent to 23,517.54 at the close, after rising as much as 0.1 percent. The index posted its first weekly drop since the period ended Aug. 27. Group of 20 finance officials are likely to discuss global economic issues including currencies at a meeting that begins today in Gyeongju, South Korea, Bank of Japan Governor Masaaki Shirakawa said.
"Investors are keeping an eye on the G-20 meeting to see more indication on currencies," said Ben Kwong, chief operating officer at KGI Asia Ltd. "The strengthening of the U.S. dollar is having a negative impact on resources related stocks."
Almost three stocks fell for each that rose on the 45- member Hang Seng Index. The Hang Seng China Enterprises Index of so-called H shares of Chinese companies declined 0.9 percent to 13,494.80.
Dollar Index Rises
Sinopec declined 2.4 percent to HK$7.21. An explosion at its Gaoqiao refinery in Shanghai injured seven workers yesterday, according to a statement posted on Shanghai's work safety administration's website today. The fire was put out five minutes after the incident occurred.
Cnooc Ltd., China's largest offshore oil producer, fell 0.9 percent to HK$15.94, and PetroChina Co., the country's biggest oil company, slid 0.7 percent to HK$9.76.
Oil and metal prices fell as the strengthening U.S. currency curbed the investment appeal of commodities. Crude oil for December delivery dropped 2.4 percent to settle at $80.56 a barrel in New York yesterday, while the London Metal Exchange Index of six metals including aluminum and copper declined 0.4 percent.
The Dollar Index, which tracks the U.S. currency versus those of six major trading partners such as the euro, rose to 77.418 in New York yesterday. The gauge has risen 0.8 percent this week.
Jiangxi, Zhaojin
Jiangxi Copper, China's No. 1 producer of the metal, dropped 2.7 percent to HK$22, while Zhaojin Mining Industry Co., a miner based in China's Shandong province, sank 1 percent to HK$24. Aluminum Corp. of China Ltd. slid 1 percent to HK$7.85. A measure of materials companies had the biggest drop on the Hang Seng Composite Index.
The Hang Seng Index soared 15 percent between Aug. 27 and Oct. 15, when it posted the longest weekly winning streak since the period ended Nov. 2, 2007, as economic reports and corporate earnings boosted confidence in a global economic recovery. Stocks in the gauge trade at an average 15 times estimated earnings, compared with about 17.2 times at the start of the year.
Maanshan Iron & Steel Co., China's second-biggest Hong Kong-traded steelmaker, tumbled 4.3 percent to HK$4.65 after saying profit fell 99.6 percent to 3.04 million yuan ($456,587) because demand slowed and high prices of raw materials eroded margins.
China Mobile, the world's biggest phone carrier by market value, retreated 0.7 percent to HK$80.40. It fell 1.5 percent yesterday after posting third-quarter profit that missed analysts' estimates.
Among stocks that rose, Swire Pacific Ltd., a Hong Kong office landlord, rose 1.8 percent to HK$112.80, the second- biggest gain on the Hang Seng Index. Citigroup Inc. analysts raised its rating to "buy" from "hold," citing an improved outlook for the company's investment property and marine businesses. The brokerage increased its share-price estimate to HK$132 from HK$102.40.
Futures on the Hang Seng Index fell 0.8 percent to 23,485.

Vatican Letter Urges Clergy To Create Guidelines To Stop Sexual Abuse
The Vatican published a letter today telling every Catholic conference in the world to draft guidelines to prevent sexual abuse. The Catholic News Service says Catholic bishops should have "clear and coordinated procedures for protecting children, assisting victims of abuse, dealing with accused priests, training clergy and cooperating with civil authorities."
For some it's not enough. The group, Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests notes the Vatican doesn't specify a mandatory reporting requirement of an alleged sexual attack and that means vulnerable children are not safer, according to CNN.
Reuters adds there's no instruction that bishops must warn their congregations about clerics who have previously molested other children.

text: Culture 7 September 2010 Booker shortlist announced Tom McCarthy, Andrea Levy and Peter Carey all make the cut. Print HTML This year's Booker Prize shortlist has been announced. The six novelists up for the literary award, selected from a longlist of 13, are: Peter Carey - Parrot and Olivier in America (Faber and Faber) Emma Donoghue - Room (Picador - Pan Macmillan) Damon Galgut - In a Strange Room (Atlantic Books) Howard Jacobson - The Finkler Question (Bloomsbury) Andrea Levy - The Long Song (Headline Review) Tom McCarthy - C (Jonathan Cape) Andrew Motion, chair of the judging panel, commented: It's been a great privilege and an exciting challenge for us to reduce our longlist of thirteen to this shortlist of six outstandingly good novels. In doing so, we feel sure we've chosen books which demonstrate a rich variety of styles and themes - while in every case providing deep individual pleasures. As we noted previously, the longlist excluded both Martin Amis and Ian McEwan, two high-profile British authors who published novels this year. Instead, the judges appear to have gone for a serious but diverse mix - from Peter Carey's "comic adventure that functions with equal brilliance as a novel of ideas", in the words of our fiction critic Leo Robson, to Tom McCarthy's excavations of 20th century European modernism, to Andrea Levy's innovative historical fiction. › Will this picture come back to haunt Nick Clegg?
