Suicide bomber kills six in Pakistan
By RIAZ KHAN
Associated Press
PESHAWAR, Pakistan — A Taliban suicide bomber blew himself up near a vehicle carrying the regional head of a government-allied militia in northwest Pakistan on Saturday, killing him and five others, police and the militant group said.
Senior police officer Akhtar Hayyat said several people were also wounded in the blast near a gas station in the district of Buner in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province. He said Fateh Khan, the head of the local anti-Taliban militia, was killed along with three guards and two passers-by.
Khan was also a prominent leader of the secular Awami National Party, which rules the coalition government in the province, and which has angered the Taliban by supporting several military offensives in tribal districts and in the towns.
Shortly after the attack, Taliban spokesman Ahsanullah Ahsan claimed responsibility by telephone for the killing of Khan.
Buner is believed to be a hiding place for the Pakistani Taliban. It is located near the Swat Valley, where the insurgent group shot and wounded 15-year-old education activist Malala Yousufzai last month for criticizing its behavior when it seized the isolated region in 2008.
An offensive by the military broke the Taliban's control over the area in 2009, but attacks have continued.

The American Field Service
December 1974 | Volume 26, Issue 1
Meanwhile French military authorities had begun to work closely with Andrew. Together with Doumenc he was able to hammer out an agreement whereby American ambulance units would be attached to line divisions of the French army, and the signing of this agreement at Marshal Joffre's headquarters in mid-1915 marked the first formal recognition of the ambulance service as a quasi-independent organization. This agreement also brought Andrew a pleasant surprise: When I went to the automobile bureau in Paris from which I get my passes, the captain in charge informed me he had received word from the Grand Quartier Général that an officer was to be attached to me. He apologized for not having a lieutenant available but said he would give me a Maréchal de Logis, more or less the equivalent of a sergeant. I was not sure by any means that I wanted to have a strange and possibly uncongenial person tied to me, but there was no way out, and presently a tall, distinguished-looking soldier, who might have been a Russian general from his appearance, presented himself in broken English as my future aide. I expressed appropriate polite satisfaction, and asked him his name. He murmured four or five syllables which I did not quite catch, and I offered him my card, the one embellished with several rows of titles as is supposedly necessary here in France, and he presented me his. It read simply "Le Duc de Clermont-Tonnerre." So the Duke now travels with us as my aide.
Motoring through northern France with the duke was not without unexpected rewards, as Andrew recorded a short time later: As we were rolling along, M. de Clermont-Tonnerre casually remarked that if I were willing to run a few miles off our course he would be grateful, because he could see one of his houses that he had not visited since the mobilization, nearly a year ago. We could spend the night there, he added. So about dusk we rolled into a pretty French town called Ancy-le-Franc, and then through heavy iron gates into a park bordered by century-old trees, and suddenly came upon a tremendous thick-walled château of the time of Louis XIV . The silence of its court-yard and the faint rustling in the long allées that led away from it, down mysterious dream-like vistas, contrasted sharply with what we had been experiencing the day before. We went through one room after another, with fine old fireplaces and heavy-beamed ceilings … and through the flickering candlelight loomed the pictures on the walls of François Premier, and Diane de Poitiers, and the Duke's ancestors of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, the Clermonts, Tonnerres, Noailles, and other famous old names of pre-Republican France. The walls were fully ten feet thick. There was a lovely chapel with a balcony, and a room for the archives of the family, the walls of which were panelled with the crests of the different branches. That night I slept in a damask-hung bed in a vaulted room, and from its walls looked down on me portraits of men in armor and beautiful women who, three centuries ago, had walked and laughed and loved and suffered within these same walls. Before I blew out the candle I must admit I wondered which of the panels in the walls were entrances from unseen passages, and what I would do if the wall opened during the night and some wraith flitted across the room. In the morning as I opened my window I looked out on a decorative canal running down through a broad tree-bordered lawn to an artificial lake, and in its center was an island upon which, almost lost in verdure, was perched a picturesque little vine-covered love nest of Louis XV vintage, called "La Folie." I thought of the proverb, " Qui vit sans folie n'est pas si sage qu'il croit " [He who lives without folly is not as wise as he thinks].
And, it soon turned out, the duke had other houses at Glisolles and Achy, both conveniently near the front.
But this pleasant interlude did not last long. There was serious trouble at the American Hospital, where Dr. Gros and the members of the transportation committee were increasingly peeved at Andrew. As the months passed, Andrew's service, which was recruiting volunteer drivers from colleges in all parts of the country, began to attract more attention than the hospital itself. With an inborn instinct for publicity Andrew arranged for newsreels of ambulance activities in the field to be shown at university clubs in major cities across America. By 1916 it was clear to him that he would have to sever the ties binding his service to the hospital. But to do so he needed the consent not only of Robert Bacon but also of the redoubtable Anne H. Vanderbilt. The second wife of William Kissam Vanderbilt, she was a leading figure in the American community in France and wielded considerable power within the hospital hierarchy. She was also very fond (overly so, in Mrs. Bacon's opinion) of its president, Robert Bacon. Andrew described her in these words: Mrs. Vanderbilt has a man's intelligence and force and a woman's grace and charm, and what I particularly like, a fine individual perspective about the things in life that are worthwhile. She reminds me often of Mrs. Gardner, and above all in this, that she never thinks twice of her physical comfort when it might interfere with an interesting experience.

English Tense System
In some languages, verb tenses are not very important or do not even exist. In English, the concept of tense is very important.
In this lesson we look at how to avoid confusing tense with time, and the structure of the 12 basic tenses, with examples using a regular verb, an irregular verb and the verb "be".
Tense and Time
Don't confuse the name of a tense with time!
Basic Tenses
12 tenses in active voice + 12 in passive = 24

Structure of basic tenses with regular verb work
Basic Tenses: Irregular Verbs
Structure of basic tenses with irregular verb sing

Advancing health through science, education and medicine
ACSM welcomes the opportunity to consider endorsing scientific statements from outside organizations and has an approved policy in place to handle these requests. ACSM's pronouncements committee will organize the peer review of scientific statements and make a recommendation to the board of trustees regarding endorsement. The board of trustees makes the final decision regarding endorsement.
Normally, ACSM will not review and consider a document for endorsement unless the submitting organization is open to considering recommendations for revision. In addition, ACSM routinely needs to receive the document four to six weeks prior to the outside organization's decision deadline in order to provide thoughtful review. More extensive documents may require additional time to review and process. In special cases where the document is received less than four to six weeks prior to a decision deadline and ACSM remains interested in the possibility of endorsement, it will consider moving forward with the review on a case-by-case basis.
Organizations wishing to have ACSM consider endorsement of their scientific statement should direct all requests to Lynette L. Craft, PhD, FACSM, vice president for evidence based practice and scientific affairs.

Sagem, Puma team up on sports phone
Sports clothing and apparel company Puma and wireless handset maker Sagem have revealed a co-branded handset at the Mobile World Congress show in Barcelona on Tuesday. Being marketed as an active smartphone, the Puma Phone has a built-in solar charger, GPS sensor, video calling and Bluetooth support. A music player is built-in, and allows for DJ-like virtual spinning and scratching. There is also an integrated radio.
ASUS' Centrino 2, Puma notebooks leaked
Much of ASUS' notebooks running both Intel's Centrino 2 platform and the corresponding AMD Puma foundation have been revealed in advance, according to several leaks from Notebook Italia. The M-series will still serve as ASUS' media-oriented flagships, but will now trade power savings for performance: the stock M51VR will use Intel's new low-power 2.53GHz Core 2 Duo that uses only 3MB of Level 2 cache but also consumes just 25W of average power, while both the M51VA and the 17-inch M70VM will use a 35W chip that doubles the cache size to 6MB.
AMD Turion Ultra, Puma details surface
Details of AMD's planned announcements at Computex have emerged, OEM sources for TG Daily are said to claim. The Puma platform is expected to be launched at the beginning of the show, June 3rd, and will feature the "Griffin" CPU, now named the Turion Ultra. Also said to be included is the RS780M, a mobile version of the 780G chipset; on this will be a Mobility Radeon 3200 graphics chip, and Wi-Fi receivers from the likes of Atheros and Broadcom.
AMD touts 100 Puma laptops, new CPU architecture
Hoping to garner a greater mobile marketshare, AMD says that around 100 laptop designs will be based around the Puma laptop chip platform, which is scheduled to launch in June. A company spokesman told PC World that the launch will feature twice as many designs as the launch of its last mobile platform. With plans to launch Puma during the Computex trade show, the platform will offer greater power efficiency, improved graphics, and AMD's upcoming Turion X2 Ultra "Griffin" processor. The report notes that Puma also includes a chipset with integrated graphics (an ATI Radeon HD3400) and integrated wireless connectivity (via a third-party chipset) supporting 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g and 802.11n Wi-Fi networking.
AMD debuts mobile Puma platform
In the wake of its 45nm quad-core announcement, AMD has also formally unveiled Puma, a new mobile platform (not pictured). The technology is allegedly aimed at Intel's Centrino platform, which combines a Core 2 Duo, a GM965/PM965 chipset and onboard wireless; Puma turns to a new Turion Ultra processor, combined with an RS780M chipset and a Wi-Fi adapter. As with Centrino, a dedicated videocard is optional.

Cirrus creates Lightning-headphone dev kit
Apple supplier Cirrus Logic has introduced a MFi-compliant new development kit for companies interested in using Cirrus' chips to create Lightning-based headphones, which -- regardless of whether rumors about Apple dropping the analog headphone jack in its iPhone this fall -- can offer advantages to music-loving iOS device users. The kit mentions some of the advantages of an all-digital headset or headphone connector, including higher-bitrate support, a more customizable experience, and support for power and data transfer into headphone hardware. Several companies already make Lightning headphones, and Apple has supported the concept since June 2014. http://bit.ly/29giiZj
Apple Store app offers Procreate Pocket
The Apple Store app for iPhone, which periodically rewards users with free app gifts, is now offering the iPhone "Pocket" version of drawing app Procreate for those who have the free Apple Store app until July 28. Users who have redeemed the offer by navigating to the "Stores" tab of the app and swiping past the "iPhone Upgrade Program" banner to the "Procreate" banner have noted that only the limited Pocket (iPhone) version of the app is available free, even if the Apple Store app is installed and the offer redeemed on an iPad. The Pocket version currently sells for $3 on the iOS App Store. [32.4MB]
Porsche adds CarPlay to 2017 Panamera
Porsche has added a fifth model of vehicle to its CarPlay-supported lineup, announcing that the 2017 Panamera -- which will arrive in the US in January -- will include Apple's infotainment technology, and be seen on a giant 12.3-inch touchscreen as part of an all-new Porsche Communication Management system. The luxury sedan starts at $99,900 for the 4S model, and scales up to the Panamera Turbo, which sells for $146,900. Other vehicles that currently support CarPlay include the 2016 911 and the 2017 models of Macan, 718 Boxster, and 718 Cayman. The company did not mention support for Google's corresponding Android Auto in its announcement. http://bit.ly/295ZQ94
Apple employees testing wheelchair features
New features included in the forthcoming watchOS 3 are being tested by Apple retail store employees, including a new activity-tracking feature that has been designed with wheelchair users in mind. The move is slightly unusual in that, while retail employees have previously been used to test pre-release versions of OS X and iOS, this marks the first time they've been included in the otherwise developer-only watchOS betas. The company is said to have gone to great lengths to modify the activity tracker for wheelchair users, including changing the "time to stand" notification to "time to roll" and including two wheelchair-centric workout apps. http://bit.ly/2955JDa
SanDisk reveals two 256GB microSDXC cards
SanDisk has introduced two 256GB microSDXC cards. Arriving in August for $150, the Ultra microSDXC UHS-I Premium Edition card offers transfer speeds of up to 95MB/s for reading data. The Extreme microSDXC UHS-I card can read at a fast 100MB/s and write at up to 90MB/s, and will be shipping sometime in the fourth quarter for $200. http://bit.ly/294Q1If
Apple's third-quarter results due July 26
Apple has advised it will be issuing its third-quarter results on July 26, with a conference call to answer investor and analyst queries about the earnings set to take place later that day. The stream of the call will go live at 2pm PT (5pm ET) via Apple's investor site, with the results themselves expected to be released roughly 30 minutes before the call commences. Apple's guidance for the quarter put revenue at between $41 billion and $43 billion. http://apple.co/1oi1Pbm
Twitter stickers slowly roll out to users
Twitter has introduced "stickers," allowing users to add extra graphical elements to their photos before uploading them to the micro-blogging service. A library of hundreds of accessories, props, and emoji will be available to use as stickers, which can be resized, rotated, and placed anywhere on the photograph. Images with stickers will also become searchable with viewers able to select a sticker to see how others use the same graphic in their own posts. Twitter advises stickers will be rolling out to users over the next few weeks, and will work on both the mobile apps and through the browser. http://bit.ly/29bbwUE

I was disappointed to hear so many people didn't enjoy this season as much as the first and so going into it I was both a bit cautious and concerned. I'm glad to say that those who didn't think this season was as funny or believe that it had somehow lost its magic were totally wrong.
NC: Paris is a great follow up to the first season and while short has continued to fuel my love for the characters and story.
Positives: Again Chiaki and Nodame bring something magical to the anime world with both their quirky relationship and their music. There are some complaints that their relationship is thin and nothing more than fighting and a few trite moments. I'd beg to differ and suggest that their relationship is alot more like real life although it's been compressed into a few short moments of a short season (WHY didn't we get a 25 episode season! Argh!)
As both Nodame and Chiaki begin to realize what it is in life that they care about their relationship continues to evolve and to me it was both believable and a whole lot of fun.
Another big concern I've seen is that a lot of the secondary characters aren't nearly as developed nor interesting as the past season. I'd say this is in a sense true, but there is a much more limited time frame to develop them in and there are a few standouts where necessary. Ultimately though, this is a season about the two main characters figuring out what they want from life and trying to decide how they really relate to each other.
Negatives: Too short? Seriously I'm dying for the third season to come out and I am hoping that it's a fitting conclusion to the story that has been woven.
I didn't really enjoy the theme song this season in the way that I loved the first season's and I've often wondered why Japanese anime have to change their theme songs. I don't think that sort of thing would ever fly here in the US as your theme song is too much a piece of the heart of a show. I know I could start humming themes to hundreds of songs and most of you would know them in just a few notes...but anyhow, the closing theme was great so I guess in the end it's ok.
All in all a great second season that could have been much longer and hopefully we'll be seeing that third season soon and get a solid and fitting end to the Chiaki/Nodame tale.
A+ Review again.. i think i will be refrencing your reviews before i watch animes from now on. This anime was a total suprise to me from the begining as well.. and I enjoyed it so much. The stroy was touching and fabulous. You really love the characters and you know why you love them as well... on with the third season! :3

A tale of two hearts
Everyone over 40 knows what an EKG is. (Under 40, you're too invincible to bother with such matters.) But either over or under 40, here's a fact you'll want to face: Your life actually beats with two hearts — the one under your chest should be periodically tested by an EKG; the other, the one that can't be hooked up to a machine, beats in a very different way. Yet its rhythms are no less vital.

Holiday Card Project 2012Holiday Card Project 2012 by Heidi
It's back! With the goal of bringing a little cheer to patients in the hospital during the holiday season, the deviantART Holiday Card Project connects deviants from around the world and applies their tremendous artistic abilities in designing and creating uplifting holiday cards.
In past years, the Project has received more than 5,000 cards sent in by more than 1,000 deviants from 50 different countries/political regions. Cards were then divvied up and distributed in-person by deviantART members to local Los Angeles, CA hospitals, with additional cards given to various hospitals in the U.S. and abroad for hospital staff members to hand out to patients.
The idea behind the Holiday Card Project is simple: do something nice for others. However, if you're looking for even more incentive, every deviant who submits a card will be given a free one-month Premium Membership to deviantA
...Is immensely humbled that one would visit my virtual abode!
I'm on Deviantart a lot! I just take a while to draw new things so please leave a message anytime! I'll read it!
This is also pretty much the only social media I have so this is pretty much homebase. Don't try looking for me anywhere else.

In one corner, Utah Senator Mike Lee was trying out one of those combination workstation-treadmills that allows you to type on your laptop while getting your exercise. Nearby, a bowtie-wearing barista was preparing to serve lattes. Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus, getting a tour of a room that looked vaguely like it had been lifted from a Portlandia sketch, gazed on approvingly.
With the start of the GOP's gathering effectively delayed a day by a tropical storm, the Google lounge in Tampa's convention centre was one of the few forms of officially sanctioned entertainment for politicians, delegates and media at loose ends. And if nothing else, it served as a reminder for those of us covering the Republicans for the first time not to fall prey to all the usual red-state stereotypes.
One floor up, an expansive array of talk-radio types did their best to fill the airwaves with what appeared to be a rotating cast of conservative pundits. This, it seemed, fit the profile a little better - nowhere more so than a small booth identifying itself as "NRA Radio," and distributing flyers for "Defending Our Defenders," billed as a "high-energy tribute to the men and women of the United States military" to be presented Tuesday afternoon by "Veterans for a Strong America, Special Operations for America and the Special Operations Education Fund in conjunction with Tea Party Patriots."
The gentleman who offered the flyer turned out to be the host of "Cam and Company," a late-night satellite-radio show, as well as a producer and reporter for the NRA's Internet station. He explained that NRA's programming is mostly "second amendment stuff," with a little conservative politics thrown in. As for how they're covering a four-day convention with what seems a rather narrow mandate - most of NRA Radio's listeners just really, really want Barack Obama gone, so Cam and his colleagues are focusing on asking Republicans how they're going to achieve that.
Setting aside his easygoing (and slightly bemused) manner, this all seemed a little more predictable than what was happening in the Google lounge. Unfortunately, it turned out that Cam wasn't willing to play completely to type either - professing, upon learning that he was speaking to a Canadian journalist, that he's a big fan of Peter Mansbridge. (We didn't get to discuss why that was, exactly, because he had to interview John Sununu.)
Back in the hallway downstairs, a different and more poignant moment seemed similarly to be playing out as one might expect, until it wasn't.
In the midst of chatting amiably with journalists and conservative bloggers, Mr. Priebus was approached by a young woman - a Republican who wanted to talk (from what we could hear) about a family member who had died in combat, and why his fate made her believe in the party even more strongly.
This would have been an easy moment to exploit, and for a moment it seemed Mr. Priebus would indeed carry out a conversation with her for the cameras. Instead, appearing to grasp what this was like for her, he excused the two of them so they could go talk in private.
None of this is extraordinary; perhaps it shouldn't even be remarkable. But over the next few days, it will be easy to be snide about some of the cruder theatrics that will be on display in Tampa. So it seems worth noting, at the outset, that these people are not all the cartoon characters they can easily be made out to be.Report Typo/Error
