4. Melissa George
"I think it was for rollerskating. I won for champion rollerskater when I was 8."
5. Leah Remini
"The first award I ever won was a Lifetime Achievement Award of nothing from Ellen DeGeneres five years ago. She gave me an award because she felt bad that I've never won anything. It's a Barbie doll that looks like Ellen."

7. Debra Messing
"I haven't won that many! I think in junior high school I got an owl certificate because I did well in my grade."

"I won a People's Choice Award for Best Ensemble on Roseanne. Though before that, I was most improved in high school basketball. What did I have to do to get that? I had to improve!"
9. Javier Bardem
"It was a rugby medal when I was 13. I played for 17 years, but I quit 10 years ago. I can't really play anymore. I'm too old, and they're too fast."

"When I was in 4th grade the whole county entered a creative writing story competition. I won first place for my story about a girl during the civil war."
12. Patricia Arquette

13. Jason Bateman
"I won an award for best newcomer when I was 12. It was for Silver Spoons. I can't say my acting was all that subtle then."
14. Allison Janney
"It was an Emmy. I didn't win any acting awards when I was in college; I thought I heard my name announced, but when I stood up, I realized that it wasn't me. I never won anything. Not a spelling bee, nothing!"

16. Jennifer Love Hewitt
"I don't know, but I remember the first award show I ever went to! I'd only been in LA for two days. I'd just turned ten and I got to go to the Grammy awards!"
17. Minka Kelly
"I got the Gift from the Gods award from Spike TV. Actually, I got a perfect attendance accolade in surgery class. Before Friday Night Lights, I worked as a nurse for 4 years."
18. Brittany Snow
"It was the Young Artist Award for the soap opera Guiding Light when I was 13. They flew me out to L.A. for the first time and I wore a sequined gown. It was exciting! The award is still in my room at home in Florida."
19. Maria Bello
"I don't think I've ever won an award in my life! No, I've won a couple things like a SAG award. But as an adult, not when I was a kid."
20. Leslie Mann
"A cow-milking competition at Knott's Berry Farm when I was 8. I don't know if they still have them, or if that kind of thing still exists."

22. Eric Mabius
"A gold medal in the Junior Olympics at my high school in the long jump. I was also on the Junior National Luge team in high school. Doing the luge was the most solitary thing I'd ever done. It helped with acting-your mind races, you have to work on your visualization."
23. Alec Baldwin
"It was probably a merit badge in the Cub Scouts."
24. Gabrielle Union
"I think I won Best Legs in high school. I was narrowly beaten out for Best Body. There's a little part of me that wants to find that girl and see what she looks like today. I'm not bitter or anything."
25. Angie Harmon
"It was a national award for being an athlete. You know that little badge that you got? I was just looking at it the other day. You did all these different sports for it. I freaked out when I got something from President Reagan."
26. Lisa Kudrow
"I think it was at camp. I can't remember the category, but I was just so happy to get an award. You know, they make stuff up. It's like, 'Hey! You won the best person wearing shorts! You did that really well!'"

Last night was the penultimate episode of ITV1 murder mystery Broadchurch starring David Tennant and Olivia Coleman. Seven episodes in and it's still no clearer who the culprit is.
We have been wracking our brains over who killed Danny Latimer for weeks. But with a flawed police investigation, an ailing inspector Alec Hardy, and enough intrigue, lies and misdirection to rival a restoration comedy, we're still none-the-wiser.
Mark Latimer, Jack Marshall, Susan Wright and Nigel Carter have all been called in for police questioning, but many viewers think that Ellie's husband Joe is the prime suspect.
Will Mellor's psychic character Steve Connelly has predicted the killer is close to the family with an "S" or "R" in his or her name.
Is it the least suspicious character? What about the granny? Or that suspicious older boyfriend? Or blondie from the hotel?
Who do you think dunnit?

On the surface, the economy will dominate politics in 2009, but the big underlying issue will be the role and size of the state. All around the world in 2008, governments intervened before breakfast, lunch and dinner.
A fiscal stimulus here, a bank rescue there, and there is much more to come when Barack Obama takes the reins. Things have moved so fast in a momentous year that British politicians don't know whether the huge dose of intervention by government – the only body which could have saved the banks – was a one-off or whether the boundaries have been redrawn for good.
Labour left-wingers sense a permanent change and have a spring in their step. Some quip about the need to bring back Clause IV of the party's constitution, the commitment to public ownership slaughtered by Tony Blair in 1995.
Their hopes will be dashed. True, Gordon Brown announced a 45p in the pound top rate of income tax on earnings above £150,000 a year. But it was done to reassure the financial markets the Government would eventually balance the books, not to whack the fat cats who work in them.
All the same, ministers admit the economic crisis will tip the scales in favour of more state intervention. Money will be ploughed into other strategic sectors deemed vital to the economy's long-term future. More action on the banks will be needed early in the new year to get credit flowing to business.
Some New Labour folk admit they have been too cautious in limiting the role of the state since 1997, and overcompensated for the mistakes of previous Labour governments to reassure the City and big business. A correction is now underway, but the pendulum will not swing as far as the Labour left would wish. New Labour figures claim their pitch of "markets where possible, government where necessary" is still relevant, even though the goalposts have moved.
In two speeches this month, the Business Secretary, Lord Mandelson, called for "smart strategic government" which boosts competitiveness and social justice and a "new industrial activism" based on "market pragmatism" rather than Old Labour's desire to "pick winners". Yes, the new boundaries remain a bit fuzzy, but at least he has made a start at defining them.
Mr Brown, widely seen as a "big state" control freak by his opponents, is probably better suited to the new times than Mr Blair. Ministers feel that Labour is the natural party of the bigger government that is inevitable. They are convinced the Tory Opposition is in the wrong place: by opposing the fiscal stimulus, ministers believe, David Cameron shows this party's true laissez faire colours, out of tune with both the needs of the hour and his own modernising message. Labour regards a once-clever Tory pitch for a smaller state and "post-bureaucratic age" as obsolete.
Not so, insist senior Tories. They are not hostile to state intervention where necessary and accept that tougher regulation may be needed after the banking crisis. In their eyes, it is Labour which is reverting to type. They suspect the voters, whatever their grudging respect for Mr Brown's economic experience, will not like his "big brother" instincts – especially if his top-down measures fail, leaving taxpayers with a crushing bill for his borrowing binge.
Beneath the surface missile fire, the two main parties are urgently reviewing the role of the state. Some cabinet ministers believe the squeeze on public spending after 2010 will require a much smaller Whitehall and a genuine devolution of real power to frontline public services. Liam Byrne, the Cabinet Office minister and a former management consultant, is trying to change a culture of public service performance targets long past its sell-by date.
Public sector workers will be rightly sceptical. They have heard brave talk about central government "letting go" before, yet services remain distorted by obsessive box-ticking. But Mr Byrne is a key player in Team Brown and he is serious about reform. When Mr Brown was Chancellor, the Treasury and Cabinet Office (virtually part of 10 Downing Street) were rival power centres which squabbled over public services. Today they are working together on a new regime. Expect Labour to produce some dramatic efficiency savings – setting a trap for the Tories, who have promised to deliver even more so they can keep their promise to spend less than Labour.
The role and size of the state will be a very big question in 2009 – not least because we are in such a state as it begins. As the politicians try to find the answer, they will have another very challenging year.

Nevertheless, I'm giving another show over to him, since this speech, The Hall Of Mirrors, is such an excellent summary of the predicament of the United States of America - a nation which for generations has been attempting - not without success - to indoctrinate each new generation to greater heights of dependency upon the corporate system. This speech, from about 2009, really pulls it together, and gives a great historical perspective.Robin Uptonhttp://email@example.com:02:33-08:002016-12-11T12:02:33-08:00http://unwelcomeguests.net/744UG#744 - The Machine StopsThis episode is a successor show to episode 639, which examined the connections between technology and totalitarianism. Exceptionally, our title piece is an short story so old as to be no longer under copyright! As a counterpoint to this vintage sci-fi, two other interesting thinkers: a 1974 recording of Ivan Illich on the dangers of mechanising food production while a dependent population are stabulated (housed) in sterile concrete, followed by an introduction to the outrageous ideas of the psychonaut John C. Lilly in particular his dystopian vision of the Solid State Entity.Robin Uptonhttp://email@example.com:24:14-08:002016-12-06T07:24:14-08:00http://unwelcomeguests.net/743UG#743 - Abandoning Wage SlaveryWe return to look more closely at a topic which has long been of central importance to the show - the corrupting influence of the modern money system. Specifically, what are the problems of telling people not that if they wish to eat, they must work, but that they must have a paid job. For inspiration we relisten to Ivan Illich from episode #523 in which he predicts an end to social power. In the first hour, Robin expands on what this might mean in the arena of money, using his insights from his 18 years in Bangladesh. In the second year, we hear an adaptation of a film about the global movement towards a universal income, followed up a longer section of the original Illich quote.Robin Uptonhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:45:41-07:002016-10-17T10:45:41-07:00http://unwelcomeguests.net/742UG#742 - Solving 9-11 - Part 2Chris Bollyn continues to read ''Solving 9-11'', his latest book on the topic. He draws parallels with other events such as 7/7 and the sinking of the MS Estonia, both of which also had coincident terrorist drills that mirrored what actually happened.Robin Uptonhttp://email@example.com:14:34-07:002016-06-25T08:14:34-07:00http://unwelcomeguests.net/741UG#741 - Solving 9-11 - Part 1This week Chris Bollyn starts reading Solving 9-11, his latest book on the topic, which gives us context by looking at Israel's long record of False Flag attacks.Robin Uptonhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:25:31-07:002016-06-12T06:25:31-07:00http://unwelcomeguests.net/740UG#740 - The Words and Deeds of the US Deep StateWe expand on episode 739 with a 1993 recording of retired Airforce Colonel Fletcher Prouty speaking on his experience of the Bay of Pigs operation and on the Vietnam war. Prouty's testimony provides insights into how the early CIA covert operations were run and especially how they were coordinated with other branches of the US government. In our second hour Dave Emory examines evidence suggesting that the Edward Snowden Affair is a deep state operation, intended to corral hacktivists to use deep state-backdoored cryptographic software.Robin Uptonhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:43:32-07:002016-05-29T06:43:32-07:00http://unwelcomeguests.net/739UG#739 - The Devil's ChessboardOur main piece this week is an interview with David Talbot on his 2015 book, The Devil's Chessboard, which centers on the early CIA and especially the role of Allen Dulles. The observations made about Dulles correlate pretty closely with what is known about the Deep State in the USA. We conclude with Adam Lebor throwing light on another of history's dark corner's - the Basel based Bank For International Settlements.Robin Uptonhttp://email@example.com:45:05-07:002016-05-15T09:45:05-07:00http://unwelcomeguests.net/738UG#738 - Technowar in VietnamThis week we combine two successive episodes of the classic dissident cable show, Alternative Views. Professor William Gibson describes his 1987 book, which underscores the disastrous results which followed from the US military's enthusiastic embrace of capitalist market ideology, using now all too familiar methods to maximize the army's capacity to "produce" an enemy bodycount. Gibson's comments on the context and conduct of the Vietnam war are incisive and, sadly, still all relevant.Robin Uptonhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:33:33-07:002016-05-01T03:33:33-07:00http://unwelcomeguests.net/737UG#737 - The War On ObesityTwo powerful and informative speakers with complementary perspectives on the declining health of the US population. First we hear Rebecca Anshell Song on Sexism and the Food and Diet Industry. She highlights the impossibility of the modern targets set for feminine beauty - and the consequences ranging from suicide and despair of affected women to the millions of cosmetic operations carried out in an effort to achieve physically impossible ideals of feminine beauty. Our main speaker is Professor Robert H. Lustig who observes that the "war on obesity", just like the war on drugs and the war on terrorism, is having counterproductive effects and in fact promoting obesity, as well as making large profits for corporations in the process.Robin Uptonhttp://email@example.com:21:13-07:002016-04-17T11:21:13-07:00http://unwelcomeguests.net/736UG#736 - Why 9/11 Is Still The IssueWe begin with an excellent academic paper on the historical and legal matters surrounding 9/11. Amy Baker Benjamin asks why, given both any abundance of evidence, and ample historical precedent for the use of false flags to initiate wars, has the UN singularly failed to carry out any investigation into the US government's claims surrounding the events of Sep 11th? Any why does >99% of academic scholarship on the topic not tackle substantive issues such as who actually carried out 9/11 and on what grounds? In our second hour, we hear a recent interview with Chris Bollyn which connects more of the 9/11 dots, pointing the finger at Mossad.Robin Uptonhttp://email@example.com:26:15-07:002016-04-02T14:26:15-07:00http://unwelcomeguests.net/735UG#735 - Thinking Outside The BucksA more personal show than usual, which I hope will prove an appealing contrast to the crimes of the Deep State. We return to a familiar theme of this show, the importance of following our heart, of working for love not money. A range of speakers, some new, some old, combine to challenge our ideas of self, of what it means to be a human, and of what we might achieve if we align our heads and hearts. We conclude with the vision of Chris Larcombe, who realized during his Ph.D in epigenetics that he was more interested in creating a moneyless system of interaction which would allow people, en masse, to better coordinate and help realise one another's dreams.Robin Uptonhttp://email@example.com:49:51-07:002016-03-19T11:49:51-07:00http://unwelcomeguests.net/734UG#734 - The Case of The Missing InquestDid you know that Dr. David Kelly is perhaps unique among UK citizens in that his obviously unnatural death has never been the subject of an inquest? The "inquiry" tasked with investigating it did not take testimony under oath, left many questions not unanswered but u_nasked_ (such as why there where no fingerprints on the knife!) and was headed by a hand-picked appointee of war criminal Tony Blair. A solid introduction to the case by Norman Baker MP is followed by a range of other voices that helps explain why the UK government has chosen to sidestep the circumstances of Dr. Kelly's death.Robin Uptonhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:50:16-08:002016-03-05T08:50:16-08:00http://unwelcomeguests.net/733UG#733 - The Mena ConnectionAnother episode which illuminates the murky doings of the deep state in the US; we hear the soundtrack from a 1995 film which gives an insider's eye view of "The Enterprise". Terry Reed was a CIA spook whose distaste for drug trafficking lead to him attempt to blow the whistle on what the corporate media - misleadingly - referred to as "Iran-Contra". After outlining the drugs for weapons operation that was run out of Mena, Arkansas - including how the money was laundered through the Arkansas bond market with the help of the Clintons' entourage - the show centers on how the Reeds took flight from a rogue US Justice system which had labeled them as "armed and dangerous" drug traffickers.Robin Uptonhttp://email@example.com:03:38-08:002016-02-16T06:03:38-08:00http://unwelcomeguests.net/732UG#732 - A Billion Here and A Billion There, Pretty Soon You're Talking Real MoneyWe look at a new topic on the show - one of the largest frauds committed in the USA in the 20th Century - and why it is that the looting of hundreds of billions of dollars has for the most part not only gone unpunished but uninvestigated. Our speaker is Pete Brewton, author of "The Mafia, The CIA and George Bush".Robin Uptonhttp://email@example.com:50:25-08:002016-02-06T10:50:25-08:00http://unwelcomeguests.net/731UG#731 - The Global OiligarchyThis week, we conclude our adaption of ''The Seven Sisters'' and supplement it by the research of [[James Corbett]] on the influence of the US "Oiligarchs" over the rest of US society. As he notes, the US oil barons were effective in their takeover of other aspects of US society including the money, educational and food supply systems.Robin Uptonhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:21:21-08:002016-01-23T07:21:21-08:00http://unwelcomeguests.net/730UG#730 - The Life Blood of EmpireThis week, a look at the stuff of empire, that is, the resource of preeminent importance to understanding geopolitics in the 21st century - petroleum. We adapt a documentary on The Seven Sisters, supplemented with the research of Russ Baker.Robin Uptonhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:29:22-08:002016-01-09T11:29:22-08:00http://unwelcomeguests.net/729UG#729 - The Dynamics of Deep State CaptureThis week, we examine the topic of regulatory capture in the US financial sector. We hear of some smoking guns which are hidden in plain sight - the blindingly obvious leads not properly investigated by the SEC, the FBI, the US Justice Department or any agency of the US government. Our main presentation is a 90 minute piece from lawyer and SEC whistleblower Gary Aguirre is introduced by an outline of the take down of Bear Stearns from DeepCapture.com - which although produced in 2009 has enduring relevance for anyone seeking to better understand the importance of the Deep State in the Financial 'Crisis'.Robin Uptonhttp://email@example.com:20:49-08:002015-12-26T08:20:49-08:00http://unwelcomeguests.net/728UG#728 - Globalizing The Occupation"You have to treat the public as potential terrorists - not as citizens", says Jeff Halper, describing the logic of the endgame of global capitalism, which he describes in his book as a "Global War Against The People". Pointing to its huge security-industrial-intelligence complex, he looks at Israel as a leader in this new economy. By exploiting the Palestinians as a resource, its research into methods of controlling a subject population has assisted in the development of weapons technologies such as drones and nanobots. In our second hour, we read a paper which looks at social structures and linguistic frames which are being rolled out to support hegemony worldwide by deliberately blurring the distinctions between violent terrorism and non-violent dissent.Robin Uptonhttp://email@example.com:56:07-08:002015-12-12T12:56:07-08:00http://unwelcomeguests.net/727UG#727 - The Terrorism-Surveillance ComplexThis week,we begin with a talk from the most senior NSA whistleblower you're probably never heard of, Diane Roark, who doesn't mince her words about what the NSA are really spying on. As we hear, the deep state made reprisals against her but were unable to pin anything on her. We conclude the show with the final of our 4 part adaption of Allan Francovich's Operation Gladio.Robin Uptonhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:37:53-08:002015-11-28T08:37:53-08:00http://unwelcomeguests.net/726UG#726 - The Flight From DeathIn our 15 year history, we have addressed a wide range of topics. It is a rare episode which tackles a new topic, an even rarer one in which we tackle a new topic with such direct relevance to so many earlier shows. Today's show fits that description, examining the theories of cultural anthropologist Ernest Becker, that fear of our own mortality is a topic of unparralleled importance - but one that humans psychology encourages us to shy away from rather than. For an example of the dangers of living without due scepticism of "immortality symbols" we conclude with part 3 of our ongoing adaption of Allan Francovich's film about Operation Gladio.Robin Uptonhttp://email@example.com:17:21-08:002015-11-14T10:17:21-08:00http://unwelcomeguests.net/725UG#725 - An Ongoing Deep State Clean UpWe continue our adaption of Allan Francovich's film about Operation Gladio. However, the majority of this episode is a review of the 1996 New COINTELPRO operation, started under Clinton, which is currently being framed in the US commercial media as the "Denis Hastert case". We sew together 4 recent podcasts from Sibel Edmonds (the US' most classified woman) who has been blowing the whistle on this case for over a decade, and from whom insight is therefore to be expected as to what will happen with this case, and most interestingly, what the controlled media is not informing us about.Robin Uptonhttp://email@example.com:02:24-07:002015-10-31T14:02:24-07:00http://unwelcomeguests.net/724UG#724 - Calling a SCAD a SCADThis week we begin an audio adaption of the best film that will ever made on Operation Gladio, Allan Francovich's famous 1992 expose. To introduce it, a 90 minute talk from Lance deHaven-Smith on State Crimes Against Democracy (SCADs) - a term which he thinks we should start using as a prelude to prosecuting those responsible.Robin Uptonhttp://email@example.com:46:08-07:002015-10-17T09:46:08-07:00http://unwelcomeguests.net/723UG#723 - A US Deep State EventWe continue our study of the deep state with a fresh look at what has emerged about the defining 21st century deep event, the attacks of September 11th. While that date inevitably invokes mental images of fireball and collapsing towers, we look instead at the financial implications. These range from Stratesec director Wirt Dexter Walker's $50,000 insider trade through a range of mid level fraud, up to the hundreds of billions of US Bonds which were due on that date and the trillions of dollars which have gone missing from the Pentagon budget. What does this complex pattern of innumerable financial frauds carried out on that day tell us about the interrelationships of the shadowy cabal of deep state insiders who pulled it off? And what about the technologies which may have been used on that day?Robin Uptonhttp://email@example.com:40:46-07:002015-10-03T07:40:46-07:00http://unwelcomeguests.net/722UG#722 - A Milieu of The European Deep StateThis is the most intense look we've taken at the Bilderberg group since episode 528. In the 5 years since that show was produced, Bilderberg has been much more under the media spotlight. We begin with Charlie Skelton comparing the experience of reporting on the G7 with reporting on the Bilderberg. Next we hear a 2007 summary of the Bilderberg group by Daniel Estulin and some concluding thoughts by Tony Gosling.Robin Uptonhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:08:48-07:002015-09-19T12:08:48-07:00http://unwelcomeguests.net/721UG#721 - Analysing The Mind-numbering Orwellian ContradictionsWhy was the "Je suis Charlie" celebration of free speech event followed by the biggest crackdown on free speech in French history? Kevin Barrett describes it as a "mind-numbering Orwellian contradiction, a lot like what happened after 9-11 when we were told that 'The reason they attacked us was they hate our freedoms' so let's destroy freedoms, let's shred the bill or rights, pass the Patriot Act and lock down the country." We consider the Israeli angle of Islamophobia induced by the "Moslem terrorist" meme promoted by the commercially-controlled media.Robin Uptonhttp://email@example.com:35:15-07:002015-09-05T09:35:15-07:00http://unwelcomeguests.net/720UG#720 - The Conspiracy Of SilenceThis week, we tackle a new topic on the show, which some have dubbed "VIPaedophile". We hear the sound tracks of a pair of investigative documentaries on organized child sexual abuse. First, "Spies, Lords and Predators" which looks at what it terms "the biggest political scandal Britain has ever faced". Next, we hear an interview with respected investigative film maker, Tim Tate, about the making of The Conspiracy Of Silence, his 1980s ground breaking expose of organized child sex abuse in USA. He tells how, after the film had been, produced, and the rough cut was approved by legal advisors, and even scheduled for broadcast, it was suddenly pulled, and has never aired in USA to this day. One or more of the witnesses who testified in the film were later found dead. After his interview about the film, we hear an adaption of the film itself, which is now available on the internet.Robin Uptonhttp://email@example.com:21:07-07:002015-08-22T09:21:07-07:00http://unwelcomeguests.net/719UG#719 - The Processes and Logic of The Deep StateUnusually, just a single speaker this week: one two hour interview with the doyen of deep political research, Canadian Professor Peter Dale Scott. He provides not only a lot of details of the evolution of the post WW2 deep state in the USA, but also sketches out its guiding principles, some of the deeper patterns which allow one to understand the superficially confusing and contradictory actions of the US deep state.Robin Uptonhttp://email@example.com:17:34-07:002015-08-08T10:17:34-07:00http://unwelcomeguests.net/718UG#718 - The Increasing Shallowness of The Deep StateThis week, material from 15 years back through to 5 days back detail continued deep state malfeasance hidden in plain sight. Did you hear the story of the CIA "bad apple" who sold a planeload of military grade C4 explosive to Libya, together with a course in bombmaking by US Green Berets? Or how the CIA's Inspector General perjured himself to try and cover it up... only to be later granted immunity when the truth emerged? Don't try this at home! Our main piece is James Corbett's review of what has emerged in the last 20 years about the Oklahoma City bombing. We conclude with an open letter by Nafeez Ahmed to "Britain's leading violent extremist" - David Cameron. Why does he ignore the leading researchers (including many in his own government) and surround himself instead with deceitful terror "experts" who have spookily close connections to the arms industry and the deep state? I wonder...Robin Uptonhttp://email@example.com:11:26-07:002015-07-24T15:11:26-07:00http://unwelcomeguests.net/717UG#717 - One video, Posted On YoutubeWikipedia, that guardian of the WWW official narrative, does not admit that drug trafficking played a part in the bu$ine$$ of Iran-Contra. In our first hour, first hand testimony of flying plane loads of cocaine into USA during that period. We hear how this was connected in a young man's mind to arms dealing, money laundering and his patriotic duty to fight communism - and what transpired after he told his handlers that he wanted out, to live a quiet life in Europe. In our second hour, a vintage episode of Radio Free America centers on the assassination of Barry Seal and its relationship to Iran Contra, revealing that even while 'investigations' were ongoing to cover it up, some commentators had grasped the relevance of the drug smuggling angle.Robin Uptonhttp://email@example.com:57:35-07:002015-07-11T07:57:35-07:00http://unwelcomeguests.net/716UG#716 - The Dark Heart of The Vast MachineThis episode is a thoughtful exploration of the reality of UK democracy, and is liberally seasoned by Robin Upton musing on the Deep State. We begin with Secret Society - a BBC expose of the political process that was made in the 1980s but after being "leaned on" was never broadcast. Next Secret Justice, an essay on the fundamental unaccountability of MI5, claims to the contrary notwithstanding. We conclude our reading of Brian Bogart's Sins of Statecraft: The War on Terror Exposed.Robin Uptonhttp://email@example.com:55:49-07:002015-06-28T14:55:49-07:00

We are waiting for an actual proposal. Given that http://ooo-forums.apache.org/ exists you can see that Apache Infrastructure has done everything needed. It is up to the project to maintain and administrate the forum VM. The technical key is the inclusion of someone to manage the instance as hosted by Apache. If the TDF is how the Forums wish to go then it is up to them how, once known AOOo is certainly happy to point to that location. > The forum downtime (which I hope is being worked upon) does not help us move towards a decision. I would hope that the forum downtime will help the forum owners decide to actually do a move until then the "orphaned" machines in Oracle's Hamburg office are subject to whatever events happen without anyone watching. All we can do here is report it to our Oracle contact in California and wait while he finds someone with the spare cycles to go find out what happened and give the forum machine a "kick".

High-End Work Drones Dominate Orlando Dealer Show
High-End Work Drones Dominate Orlando Dealer ShowWhile consumer drones are grabbing the headlines, the real growth potential will come from drones for business and industry. Here are examples of these work drones.
A Custom-Made Drone for Movie MakingThis heavy-duty drone is custom-manufactured at the facilities of Drone Nerds in Miami. The drone itself can weigh as much as 45 pounds, and it can lift items such as the RED digital cinema camera shown here. The drone is designed for serious work, which is why it's constructed from carbon fiber, and it can lift up to 30 pounds. This drone can be outfitted with four 22 amp-hour batteries, which will give it a flight time of an hour. This drone isn't cheap at $21,150, but considering the work it can do, it's worth every penny.
Using the Monster X Camera Without the DroneThis is a handheld camera mount for use in filmmaking that is built to accept the camera designed to fly with the Monster X drone. The camera can be used without the drone while giving the viewer the same feeling. It's designed for interior shots when using something like the Monster X would be unsafe.
Here's a Professional-Grade Drone With Consumer RootsThe Phantom 4 drone, shown here at the Drone Nerds display, from drone maker DJI has its roots in high-end consumer drones, but is used for professional operations, including making videos. This drone has a 4K HD camera for high-quality images. The camera is mounted in an integrated gimbal for steadiness. It includes obstacle-avoidance sensors and can be set to automatically return to its take-off point if it loses connections to its flight controller. This drone sells for $1399.
Xiro Explorer 5 Has a Swappable Camera MountingThe Xiro Explorer 5 drone is being marketed to real estate companies that want to use airborne photos or videos of the properties they're trying to sell. This line of drones includes a handheld gimbal mounting needed for photos of the interiors of properties, and a swappable camera mount so that the drone can be outfitted with multiple types of cameras. This drone retails for $799.
Drones for Aerial Film Making Were CommonThe DJI Inspire 1 Pro includes support for the Zenmuse X5R camera that's designed for use in professional filmmaking. This drone can be configured with separate camera and flight controls, which reduces the workload on the pilot, and helps ensure more consistent photography. Note that the arms that hold the propulsion motors are currently deployed as landing gear. In flight, these arms are raised to provide a clear 360-degree view for the camera. This drone can also be used in law enforcement and supports a FLIR (forward looking infrared) camera. The cost for this drone, shown at the Drone Nerds display, is $4,099.
Yuneec Offers a Complete Drone KitThe Yuneec Typhoon Q500 4K (pronounced "unique") drone is normally sold as part of a kit that includes a ground station, a carrying case, a handheld camera platform, a three-axis gimbal camera and support for geo-fencing. The drone is being marketed to real estate companies, but can also be used for other types of video production. The kit sells for $999.
A Drone That Analyzes Warehouse ActivityDrone SmartX manager Dina Marquez shows the analysis reports from a drone that's monitoring warehouse activity. The company provides drones as a service, and includes a variety of analysis software to display the results of the work that the drone is doing. These devices can be outfitted with a variety of sensors and cameras and can learn what's normal for any area they're monitoring.
Drones Carry Multiple SensorsThis is a look at the drones used by Drone SmartX and the sensors that these devices can use. Here you can see an array of air sensors as well as sensors and markers used by the drone and its analysis software when it's monitoring an area. That pink watch in front is actually designed to be worn by personnel so that the drone analysis software can identify them, and see where they are and what they're doing.
Freefly Alta 6 Performs (Relatively) Heavy LiftsThe Freefly Alta 6 drone can perform a variety of missions. In addition to being used as a camera platform, this six-rotor drone has been used with Lidar (light direction and ranging) for survey work, infrared photography and radiation detection, and it's even taken on tasks such as lifting hoses to workers on a roof. The payload for the Alta 6 is 15 pounds. There's also an Alta 8 drone that will carry 20 pounds. The Alta 6 sells for $11,995.
xFold Spy Carries GoPro CamerasThe xFold Spy is a lightweight, eight-rotor camera drone designed to carry GoPro cameras, or similar size payloads. One of its primary features is the ability to fold compactly for transport. The Spy is part of a much larger family of drones intended for the film and video industries. A fully configured Spy is $3,499, but this drone can be configured in a variety of ways.
The X PlusOne Is a Flying Wing DroneThe Xcraft X PlusOne drone combines the attributes of a quadcopter and an airplane, giving the operator the benefits of both. The ability to take off vertically means it can operate from nearly anywhere, and the flying wing configuration extends its flight time and its payload. This drone can fly at speeds in excess of 60 miles per hour. This drone can carry GoPro or other cameras of similar weight and size. If this drone looks familiar to you, it was featured on the TV show "Shark Tank." It sells for $1,699.
Navi Utility Drone Comes From Down UnderAeronavics refers to its smallest drone, the Navi, as a utility drone. This drone is designed to be used for surveying, mapping and inspection. It will carry a payload of 2.6 pounds and has a modular design so that the drone can change functions just by adding or removing modules. The Navi has a flight time of more than a half hour. That orange-topped canister on the back of the drone contains what the company calls a recovery system, which means that the drone carries its own parachute. Aeronavics is located in New Zealand. You can buy one of these high-end professional drones for $17,000.
ORLANDO, Fla.—When you go to a drone show, you expect to be overwhelmed with toys, some for grownups and some for kids that are marketed with an emphasis on flashy design or speed. That wasn't the case at this week's Drone Dealers Expo in Orlando, where nearly every drone on display was professional grade and designed to do real work. These aren't the devices you'll see at Walmart. The big-box retailers were conspicuously absent from this show. Instead, there were the kind of drones that are on movie sets in Hollywood, or performing environmental checks at oil fields and mines. These are the drones that ferry tools at high-rise construction sites and then inspect the work up close faster and less expensively than can be done any other way. This is the province of the specialists; independent dealers can match their products exactly to what their customers demand. This is also the real future of drones—the commercial uses of drones. While the consumer drones will always get the headlines, the real growth potential will come from the development and sale of drones for business and industry. Plenty of examples of such drones were available at the Drone Dealers Expo.

Alma Halliwell (Coronation Street): Cervical cancer
Mike Baldwin's long-suffering ex-wife found out she had cervical cancer only a few months ago; by last Friday she was dead, having missed just one smear test, and apparently without contracting significant symptoms. Actor Amanda Barrie, reasoning that the disease often takes years to develop, had offered to shave her head when the character underwent chemotherapy. In the end the shock of nasty Mike pledging undying love - and playing Perry Como records - was enough to finish her off.
Cindy Beale (Eastenders): Childbirth
The bad girl of Walford died alone and in prison - in other words, offscreen - on bonfire night 1998, allowing actor Michelle Collins to be off somewhere filming something else. A proper god-awful cartoon villainess, Cindy's end was satisfyingly Victorian in its morality: she died giving birth to her Italian lover's child. Collins was less pleased: "How many people die in childbirth these days?" she harrumphed.
Peggy Butcher (EastEnders): Breast cancer
Barbara Windsor is said to have personally pushed for her breast cancer storyline, having watched her mother die of the illness. She found a lump and the famous Carry On Camping breasts faced a mastectomy. The storyline was widely applauded but, needless to say, not everyone was happy: one London charity complained that the speed with which Peggy had been diagnosed - her tests came back in six days - would encourage other women to expect the same sparkling treatment from their rickety old hospitals.
Mark Fowler (EastEnders): HIV
Reformed tearaway Mark contracted HIV in 1991 from Gill, who he went on to marry the day before she expired messily from Aids. The storyline has allowed the soap to address issues such as prejudice against people with HIV (needless to say, everyone came round in the end) and safe sex: Mark's illness prompted more people to have HIV tests than the entire expensive government public health campaign of the late 80s and early 90s. A 1999 survey found that most teenagers had got their information about Aids from EastEnders, though experts were less impressed by the spontaneous 30 years' remission Mark was given by a doctor last year, conveniently allowing him a month off filming.
Jimmy Corkhill (Brookside): Clinical depression
Everyone's favourite soap failure began to develop particularly eccentric behaviour in October. Having been addicted to heroin, watched his son die of an overdose, killed Ron Dicko's son, and blagged his way into a job as a teacher, things finally got too much for Jimmy; after holding a class of pupils hostage and attempting suicide, eventually poor old Jackie had him sectioned.
Joe Wicks (Eastenders): Schizophrenia
The BBC worked closely with the National Schizophrenia Fellowship to make Joe's illness as realistic as possible, though it's not clear who suggested that the 17-year-old should take to plastering Albert Square with tinfoil. It was certainly courageous for the show's producers to write out their biggest teen heart-throb by having him sectioned. The Fellowship was flooded with calls after 22m viewers watched actor Paul Nicholls's exit.
Shannon Tattersall (Coronation Street): Meningitis
According to the unwritten rules of soap morality, gymslip mum Zoe was punished for her nights on the razzle when her eight-month-old daughter Shannon died of meningitis while the feckless teen was out boozing. TV presenter Anne Diamond, who lost a child to a cot death, was unimpressed. "By choosing one of the most irresponsible characters to suffer this tragedy, it suggests that women who lose babies have done wrong," she said. Zoe then snatched a friend's baby and leapt into Weatherfield canal in an attempt to end it all, before making her final exit from the soap in the clutches of a bizarre cult.

White Spots On Horses Teats?
So I noticed 1 month ago (keep on forgetting to ask!!) white spots on my mares teats. They are teny tiny!! Like a little bigger than a grain of sand!! I am stumped :? . Does any one know what they are? I want to take them off but I am not sure of you should... Should I clean them more often? They dont really bother her unless once I tryed to get them off, and she kinda smacked my head with her tail (I HATE IT WHEN THEY DO THAT!! :lol:) and kicked up with her legs-I am not sure if that is normal for her. So I didnt touch them since.
maybe just buildup on them? Mares, like geldings, need their "parts" cleaned once in a while. :)
It probably just needs to be cleaned. I noticed that my filly has those too and I haven't given her a good scrubbing yet this year, just picked at the big gunk. She didn't seem uncomfortable with it, even when I touched it and I didn't notice her trying to itch at it or anything.
thanks guys!! :)

BlackBerry CEO Jokes that iPhone Users are "Wall Huggers"

BlackBerry CEO pokes fun at the iPhone's battery life
BlackBerry's CEO recently called iPhone users "wall huggers" in a jab at the device's battery life.
According to
, BlackBerry CEO John Chen called the iPhone out for what he sees as subpar battery life when asked about Apple's popularity at the Oasis Montgomery conference in Santa Monica, California last week.
"I call you guys wall huggers," said Chen, who was referring to iPhone users that constantly search for wall outlets because their phones' batteries die before the end of the day.
But the comment seemed to be in good fun, as Chen also joked that he left Silver Lake to become BlackBerry's CEO so that he could wake up and worry every day.
"And I have fulfilled my dream," said Chen.
Chen was also recently quoted saying that he'd
sell BlackBerry Messenger for $19 billion
, referring to Facebook's acquisition of WhatsApp for the same price.
The outspoken CEO also went after T-Mobile when the wireless carrier offered a promotion that gave BlackBerry users $200 to trade in their device for a new phone of their choice. The promotion, which ended March 5, resulted in
94 percent of users trading in old BlackBerry phones
for devices made by rivals, such as the iPhone.
John Chen
Chen called the promotion "inappropriate and ill-conceived."
But T-Mobile CEO John Legere was quick to take a jab at BlackBerry, suggesting that the Canadian company is outdated (and apparently, so is its devices).
"Was going to engage John Chen on Twitter, but turns out he's not here. I'll check MySpace. Don't worry @BlackBerry Something in the works!" wrote Legere on Twitter.
Last year, BlackBerry had a full year
net loss of $5.4 billion USD
on revenue of $8.6 billion USD. It's latest operating system and line of devices -- BlackBerry 10 (BB10) -- had
largely flopped
as well.
Overall, BlackBerry devices represented less than 1 percent of global smartphone shipped in the final quarter of last year.
But Chen remains positive and is looking to turn his company around. Chen -- BlackBerry's third CEO in just two years -- said he will
focus on the enterprise
once again, which is what BlackBerry has traditionally done best. He has also put Foxconn in charge of hardware manufacturing, which lessens the company's load.
"If you mod me down, I will become more insightful than you can possibly imagine." -- Slashdot

Intel to Build 10nm Mobile Chips for ARM
The chip-making rivals have reached a deal that will help Intel grow its foundry business while giving ARM another top manufacturer for its mobile processors.SAN FRANCISCO—Intel and ARM have been the major players in what has become the central competition in the processor market. Intel has failed to make much headway into a mobile chip space dominated by ARM and its partners, while ARM has been looking to make traction in data centers, where Intel silicon powers more than 95 percent of servers. Now, these two rivals are coming together in a partnership that promises to benefit both companies. At the Intel Developer Forum (IDF) here Aug. 16, officials from both vendors announced that Intel's chip foundry business will build chips for mobile and consumer devices based on ARM's architecture. The agreement will boost Intel's custom manufacturing business, which has been building for the past few years, by adding IP from the company whose architecture powers almost all of the smartphones and tablets in the world. For ARM and its partners—including Qualcomm, Samsung and Apple—the deal gives them access to Intel's powerful chip-manufacturing capabilities and cutting-edge technologies, as well as a foundry option beyond Globalfoundries, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacture Corp. (TSMC) and Samsung. "Bringing these [vendors] together makes sense," Will Abbey, general manager of ARM's Physical IP Group, said during a technical session at IDF.
Both Abbey and Zane Ball, vice president and general manager of Intel's Custom Foundry business, noted that Intel and ARM had at times worked together in the past—for example, Ball pointed out that field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) by its Altera subsidiary are built on ARM's architecture. In a post on the ARM blog, Abbey wrote that "Intel and ARM have worked together for years to help enable the ecosystem, and this is just the latest milestone in that long-standing relationship."

On behalf of the entire team at DICE, I wanted to say thanks to everyone who played and participated in our Battlefield 3 Open Beta. The information that we've gathered from your play time is invaluable. It will help to make Battlefield 3 even better!
But it's not all network load balancing and matchmaking algorithms; When it comes to data, the real star is you! Just look at these killer numbers we pulled down from all of you PS3 players (click "Read More" to see full stats).
Crazy numbers and we couldn't have done it without you! Just a few more days now before the game launches on the 25th, and as you may know already, PS3 players will get access to the expansion pack Back to Karkand one week early.
Earlier this week, I was treated to a new demo of the rapidly approaching military shooter Battlefield 3, which promises to raise Battlefield's sprawling formula to soaring new heights. After watching a 10-minute demo of the game's campaign running on PS3, I secured a few minutes with DICE Producer Patrick Liu to address some questions from PlayStation community members…plus a few of my own!
Are you playing the Battlefield 3 Open Beta on PSN? Share your thoughts (and winning strategies!) in the comments below. For more information on the Battlefield 3 beta, or to report bugs, please check out the official Battlefield 3 Beta FAQ.
PlayStation Blog: There are a lot of military shooters these days. What's the biggest thing Battlefield 3 is bringing to the table?
Starting now, we are happy to invite all PS3 players to the much anticipated Battlefield 3 Open Beta! Played on the Operation Metro map in Rush mode that won us Best Action Game and Best Multiplayer Game at E3, this is your chance to experience one of many flavors of Battlefield 3.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank all of you for your great interest in this Open Beta. By joining, you will help us stress test servers, allow us to run important tests on the game's back-end and Battlelog. Remember that this software is in Beta and does not represent the game's final quality — you'll have to wait for October 25th for that! For a full FAQ on the Open Beta, head here.
This is Tommy Rydling from DICE, and I've got two exciting pieces of news to share with PlayStation.Blog readers. First, we are very happy to announce the dates for the eagerly awaited Battlefield 3 Open Beta on PSN. The Beta is open to all and will run from September 29th to October 10th. You can join it by simply going to the going the PlayStation Store and navigating to the "View All By Title" section, then selecting Battlefield 3 – within there you'll see the download for the Battlefield 3 demo!
Alternatively, if you have redeemed a Medal of Honor: Limited Edition or Tier 1 Edition Online Pass, you will receive early access via a personal email invitation from DICE that includes 48-hour early access, which will allow you to start playing on September 27th.
Hi all! Having just come back from a great gamescom show in Germany, here's your chance to learn all about the co-op campaign in Battlefield 3 that we showed off on PS3. We designed co-op to be the perfect blend between the strong narrative from single player and the open-ended action from multiplayer. We are fusing the replayability of multiplayer with a pick up-and-play mentality to create a totally new flavor of Battlefield.
Co-op follows the same philosophy as our award-winning multiplayer game mechanics. Teamwork is practically never forced upon you, but working together will make things much easier and — more importantly — lead to victory.
For the most part, the missions in the co-op campaign are asymmetric. This means that one mission can have you piloting a helicopter while your friend is the gunner, for example. Other situations have one player disarming a bomb and the other one defending him.
DICE's Battlefield 3 had an incredible showing at last week's E3, racking up over 30 award nominations. But for many shooter fans, one question remained — "Where's the console version?" Well, tonight those questions are answered as DICE's own Johan Dohl stops by Late Night with Jimmy Fallon to give Jimmy the first hands on with Battlefield 3 for PS3. Be sure to set those TIVO's, and for more information on Battlefield 3 be sure to watch our interview with Patrick Bach, Executive Producer on Battlefield 3 below.
One more thing! If you missed the news at PlayStation's E3 2011 Press Conference, the PS3 version of Battlefield 3 will include the full version of Battlefield 1943 on the Blu-ray disc — an exclusive bonus just for PS3 owners.
Welcome To The Jungle – Battlefield Bad Company 2: Vietnam live today Today's the day all our amazing PlayStation 3 fans can get their hands on Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Vietnam. This expansion pack to Battlefield: Bad Company 2 adds new maps, weapons, vehicles and trophies, all set to a two hour soundtrack of period-typical […]
Hi again, Playstation fans! As we get closer and closer to the launch of Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Vietnam (December 21 (NA)/December 22 (EU)), let's take a look at the hard-earned medals you can be awarded for your heroic actions in combat.

This review is from: Team Xtreem 128GB USB 3.0 Flash Drive Model X131 (TX131128GR01)
Pros: -Capacity greater than my SSD
-Speeds fast enough to completely fill in Approx. 15 mins
-Aluminium casing dissapates heat generated fast
-Comes with extender cable to compensate for its wide footprint
Cons: -The casing came loose and exposed the internals. However, no damage occured I just have to be careful about how I remove it from a USB port.
Other Thoughts: This thumb drive is top notch the only reason I gave it the four eggs instead of five is due to the casing coming loose, as it could have severely damaged the internals. I believe I can repair the defect with some super glue, which I plan on doing, just as soon as I have access to some.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: XFX Double D Radeon HD 7870 GHz Edition DirectX 11 FX-787A-CDFC 2GB 256-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card
Pros: I am not sure what to say about this card because this card does everything a video card should do flawlessly. It might not be the "best" video card, but for the money I cannot imagine there is a better one out there. I really like the Double Dissipation version the card footprint has the room for it, might as well get as much cooling as you can. Let's be honest with electronics you can never have too much cooling. The lifetime warranty, while might only be useful for 5-10 years due to the momentum of the industry, I think is the best available.
Cons: I noticed that the HDMI port of the card is rather close to the opening in the case, but it doesn't cause any problems. This was also the case with my previouse XFX Radeon. The vent on the back of the card which was implemented for the 6000 series is still there even thought the fans are now axle flow instead of centrifugal, which makes it all but unnecessary.
Other Thoughts: I would like to mention that even though the vent on the back is probably just for show. I believe that the change in fans was for the better. I have heard that the centrifugal fans while effective at cooling, the sound output rivaled that of a vacuum or a blow-dryer.

John Howe, cross-examined via a video link, said that he must have 'made a mistake' when he told the court on Tuesday that he saw his parents quarreling before his father lifted his mother on to their bed, where she lay with her mouth open.
He was recalled to give evidence after his uncle and guardian, James Howe, bet him that he 'could not see what he said he saw'. After Tuesday's hearing, the court was told, the pair went to John's family home in Walthamstow, east London, and conducted an experiment which 'proved' that John could not have seen into his parents' bedroom through an airing cupboard. James Howe, 48, 'won' the 50p bet.
Brian Howe, 44, a self-employed mechanic, denies murdering his wife, Brenda, 42, last December. Her body was found in a lake in Epping Forest.
The trial continues today.

Shell Scripts in Waiting: the Waitmax Tool
Linux consultant Matthias Kettner has just released Version 1.0 of his Waitmax Software. It gives programs a specified time to complete after terminating them.
Waitmax is designed for use in shell scripts. The tool launches another program in a new process and then waits for a configurable period. If the process has not completed by then, Waitmax sends a "TERM" signal to it. The "-s" command line parameter gives users the ability to send other signals.
In the provides a practical example. The following command uses scp to copy a large file. If the process takes longer than an hour, it is killed:
waitmax 3600 scp bigfile.tar.gz somehost:/tmpWaitmax is released under the GPLv2 and can be downloaded from the author' homepage here. Both the source code and a statically linked RPM package are available.

I wearily close my eyes,
As the darkness of night falls.
On yet another lonely day,
trapped again within these walls.
I reach out to light a candle,
And watch intently at its flame.
As the playful dancing light,
Seems to whisper out my name.
Calling me forever closer,
Pulling me now further in.
As I drift off to dream,
From this tortured world of sin.
Consumed by the fire,
Releasing up my soul.
As my mind seems to wander.
In a state of lost control.
In these moments of distraction,
That my sanity's now dealt.
The hours pass like seconds,
As the candle slowly melts.
In a corner of my mind,
The distant future's what I glimpse.
Of a hell made in heaven,
In a blood red rinse.
Where the angels of the devil,
Scream violently in pain.
Their enduring satisfaction,
Redeeming pleasure as their gain.
Like the decaying of a corpse,
Or rose petals as it wilts.
The hours pass like seconds,
As the candle slowly melts.
As I see beyond illusion,
Reality slips in again unseen.
For these moments of gratification,
Alas was just a dream.
As I struggle against temptation,
Self preservation's what I fight.
But this battles nearly over,
And the end must fall tonight.
So as this burning mass of wax,
Nears the end of its belt.
My life will soon be over,
As the candle slowly melts.

I can't believe no one has commented on this poem yet. Great imagery portrays an emotional atmosphere that is inescapable. Wonderful piece!
I like the progression of the night and the candle, like a life slowly being snuffed out. The flow, rhythm and content are very satisfying. It's too bad this piece is buried so far in among all the other poems.

|Wine and tomcat
|Wed, 08 Jun 2011 07:15:09 GMT
Hello there, At my job, we are developing a program in Java that connect to Excel to web page. Indeed, we only work on Windows but I cannot live with that any more. Windows just sucks! Hence, I'm trying the impossible here: develop a program that depend heavily on Windows and Excel under Linux. My goal is to "Wine" my entire project. I have a "wined" jdk and I already "wined" netbeans and it works like a charm. My last problem is tomcat. I need to start tomcat from wine and it does not work. I run the command catalina.bat jpda start (to debug tomcat) and here is the log that I have. [QUOTE] Using CATALINA_BASE: C:\_easa\trunk\server\tomcat Using CATALINA_HOME: C:\_easa\trunk\server\tomcat Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: C:\_easa\trunk\server\tomcat\temp Using JAVA_HOME: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_25 File not found File not found File not found File not found Usage: catalina ( commands ... ) commands: debug Start Catalina in a debugger debug -security Debug Catalina with a security manager File not found jpda start Start Catalina under JPDA debugger run Start Catalina in the current window run -security Start in the current window with security manager start Start Catalina in a separate window start -security Start in a separate window with security manager stop Stop Catalina version What version of tomcat are you running? [/QUOTE] I know the problem comes from catalina.bat around those lines. [CODE] if ""%1"" == ""debug"" goto doDebug if ""%1"" == ""run"" goto doRun if ""%1"" == ""start"" goto doStart if ""%1"" == ""stop"" goto doStop if ""%1"" == ""version"" goto doVersion [/CODE] My question is: what's missing there? How can I know what files are missing? I put prints everywhere and I cannot find which are the missing files. Thanks a lot!

Skepticism about the Olympics is part of an arduous and often frustrating process towards more political engagement and an ever more vibrant democracy, requiring stakeholders to rethink the way to organize political life in Brazil.
Read Whole Story
The average age of a US Senator is 63. Less than 10 percent of Congress is 40 years old or younger. Yet young adults -- those between 18 and 29 -- make up 30 percent of the voting population. They, literally, cannot envision themselves a part of such a process.
Typically, my gratitude is focused on those things, people, ideas, and places that are immediately accessible to me. I forget to also express appreciation for things like my citizenship; yet, it is an integral part of who I am and what I am able to do with my life.
As the third-party debates and the campaigns themselves will likely continue to be neglected by our political culture, the candidates fight on now for their message, not their electoral success.
Clearly, there are issues with the current way our politics run, and we can't fix everything overnight. But there are some simple things that we can do to make people more politically engaged.
When you vote for a candidate, don't vote for them because your friends are doing it, or because your parents are loyal to one political party over the other. Vote for a candidate you believe in.
American youth, the demographic most important to America's future, are often excluded from political processes and omitted from election ballots in just about every way.
I believe toys come to life when I leave the room. I believe Lebron James cares about his fans. And I believe in Willy Wonka. But, recently, I've stopped believing in politicians.
We know that young minds are the fires behind revolutions and the catalyst for change, but when given the opportunity to vote -- they do very little with it. I wonder, why is that?

VTB Bank To Stop Service To Russia-Based US Clients
News: Russia-based VTB Bank will stop service to Russia-based US clients to avoid noncompliance of the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA), a US tax avoidance law that becomes effective on July 1. VTB's senior management has directed the group to gradually end business with individuals and legal entities that are US taxpayers. VTB Bank has around 2,000 US clients based in Russia. FATCA was passed in 2010 to crack down on US tax avoiders across the globe.
