In this month's audio podcast we celebrate our program's two-year anniversary by interviewing Sam Harris, Richard Dawkins, Daniel Dennett and Christopher Hitchens. HNN's Duncan Crary interviewed these best-selling authors, a.k.a. "The New Atheists", at the Atheist Alliance International annual conference in September. At the conference, Harris, author of "The End of Faith," told the crowd that they should not identify with the atheist label. Dawkins, Dennett and Hitchens react. So does the Rational Response Squad and Pastor Deacon Fred of the Landover Baptist Church. Also, Sweet Reason gives advice on "coming out" as an atheist. [Read more…]

Give me a C-H-A-R-I-T-Y!
What does that spell?
Five local cheer and dance teams know the word "charity" well as they put aside their school rivalries for a common cause this holiday season.
The teams from Mira Costa, Palos Verdes, South, North and Torrance high schools are holding a toy drive to help South Bay children diagnosed with autism.
The toys will help create a toy library at FirstSteps for Kids - a therapy center that works with autistic children through Applied Behavior Analysis in Hermosa Beach.
The idea came from Maria Crawford after her son started therapy there. Diagnosed with moderate to severe autism before he was even 2 years old, Zane, who's now 4, has seen tremendous improvement through ABA therapy, but Crawford saw one major concern.
"They don't know how to play with toys and the biggest problem with autistic kids is their social skills, so if they can't play with toys, how are they going to play with children?" Crawford says. "And so I learned that I had to keep a rotation of toys, and clearly that's very hard for any family to do."
Children with autism also need to be taught how to learn and how to generalize, which is best done with different types of toys, games and other equipment.
Crawford came up with the idea for "Zane's Toy Chest," where therapists and families can check out a toy for one of the children at FirstSteps. That child can use it for a week or so before returning it to the toy library so another child can then check it out.
With the rotating usage of toys, the goal is the child will learn how to play and socialize with other children while also focusing on other aspects of ABA therapy.
But Crawford needed help in making her dream happen.
As a former cheer coach at Mira Costa and a well-known choreographer in the South Bay, Crawford thought her ties to the cheer community might help. But she was blown away by the willingness each team showed in participating.
"A lot of these squads I've worked with and have seen them compete and come in first place and do all sorts of things, and I've never been more proud of these girls than I am now because of the way they've all stepped up and without question were just like, `Yeah, we'll do it,"' Crawford said.
Two girls from Mira Costa's varsity squad, Nicki Durazo and Ashley Cohen, have been involved with the Toy Library from the start, helping to sort through the inventory after the first toy drive and organizing the library.
Not only has their entire squad now jumped in to help, the entire school has offered to help with a toy drive starting in January.
The other squads are currently holding their toy drives and will continue to do so until Dec. 20.
By getting involved, Durazo said she believes they are setting a good example for their peers and encouraging people to be more accepting of autistic children.
"Even though cheer may be competitive, it's also important that we work together for stuff like this in order to have the community come together," Durazo says.
North High's squad was one of the few that did not have a connection to Crawford, but that didn't dampen its willingness to participate.
In fact, in addition to their cheer squad, Kayla Nakayama says some school clubs also have become involved.
"Everyone on our team is bringing a toy, one or two, but the outlook for clubs and their parents - I know someone who's bringing like 40 toy puppets that they have," Nakayama said.
"We leave the basket in the activities room and people can come by and drop in toys. ... It's surprising to see how well our communication skills got the word out."
South High's coach, Sacha Mendivil, said her girls wanted to get involved because they enjoy community projects. By giving back, she said, it gives them a broader picture of what's important.
FirstSteps therapist Justine Catubig said the donated toys will make a tremendous difference for these kids, allowing them to not only learn how to play but to learn about the world in a natural way.
As for the squads who are making that happen, Crawford said she hopes the experience will start something new, where they will continue to put their rivalries aside to come together for more charity work.
"The fact that they took the time out of their busy schedules to do this and to bring awareness to autism, it just shows what kind of girls they are," Crawford said. "They step up to the occasion. They're amazing."

Last, but not least, in Linux shows
During the course of the year, the FOSS traveling salvation show in North America wends its way around the nation to end up, finally, at the Utah Open Source Conference (UTOSC) in Salt Lake City in October before taking a hiatus for the holidays. Then of course the new year, FOSS-wise, starts with the Southern California Linux Expo (SCALE) in February.
There's only one word for those who might want to skip the last-of-the-year Linux expo: "Don't!"
Quietly and with little fanfare, UTOSC has been building up to a top-notch, not-to-be-missed show that is beginning to draw deserved attention — and people — from outside immediate Utah area. In fact, in the last four years it has grown to become the best community computer conference in the Mountain West.
UTOSC will be held from Oct. 7-9 at the Miller Campus of Salt Lake Community College in Salt Lake City. Attendees who register before Saturday can save 30 percent on the price of admission to the three-day event. Regular admission to UTOSC is $70 for a full-access pass, $25 for an expo pass with entrance to try-it lab workshops and $15 for an expo pass.
For registration information, visit the registration page and those who register before the Early Bird registration deadline Saturday can use the code OPEN to get the discount.
This year's lineup of keynotes — Jared Smith, the Fedora Project's new project leader; Howard Tayler, creator of creator of Schlock Mercenary; and Karsten Wade, of Red Hat's Community Architecture team — highlight the more than 60 presentations scheduled for the three-day event.
Two scheduled events at UTOSC other shows should look at deserve special mention. UTOSC is a very family-friendly show, meaning kids are welcome — in fact, the trio of junior high girls who talked about their involvement in FOSS at SCALE earlier this year are going to give an updated presentation at UTOSC — and there are activities for them as well. Second, there's a huge game night at the end of the show, and I've honed my Munchkin skills over the year with the intention of not being trounced this year.
In addition, of course, Larry the Free Software Guy will also be giving a presentation on User Groups 2.0 — Noob Morning in America. Never one to be accused of false modesty, I have to say that one is not to be missed.
See you in Salt Lake City.
(Fedora ambassador Larry Cafiero runs Redwood Digital Research in Felton, California, and is an associate member of the Free Software Foundation.)
No, I'm not referring to the cable channel of the same name: Two shows (plus a third on the far horizon) deserve special mention. One of them I can't make because, well, it's too far to drive/Amtrak/bus/walk and you know Larry the Free Software Guy doesn't fly unless thrown by someone larger than him (fat chance). The other, I wouldn't miss for the world.
The show I'll miss, but naturally I urge you to go if you can make it: Ohio Linux Fest from Sept. 10-12 in Columbus, Ohio. Stormy Peters of GNOME kicks it off with the keynote, followed by five tracks of talks from open source and Linux experts like Tarus Balog, Amber Graner, Catherine Devlin, Dru Lavigne, Paul Frields, and Jon 'maddog' Hall. This year's OLF also features a special medical track for those interested in the use of free and open source software in medicine — readers of this blog (thanks, Mom) will note that I rant often about the need to develop medical software that is free/open source and it's good that OLF has taken the ball and run with it.
Then if you want to meet me at the next expo I attend you'll have to go to the Utah Open Source Conference from Oct. 7-9 at Salt Lake Community College in — where else? — Salt Lake City, Utah. This growing show, which I like to call "the fall classic" because it's fast becoming a standard in the West between the Southern California Linux Expo right before spring and OSCON in the summer, will have Jared Smith of the Fedora Project giving the keynote. Oh, and yours truly gives a presentation on User Groups 2.0 dealing with the ups and downs of forming a LUG in this age of a new generation of Linux users.
Speaking of SCALE, they've moved to bigger digs — namely down the street to the Los Angeles Airport Hilton — and the call for papers should be made fairly soon. For those who want to mark their calendars way in advance, it's Feb. 25-27, 2011.
See you at the show.

Art in the Age of Digital Reproduction: An Attempt to Approximate the Absinthe Essence Using Words
Originally published in the November 2012 Issue of TransWorld SNOWboarding
Words by Joel Muzzey
The Bolex H16 EBM is a compact, Swiss-made motion-picture camera that captures images on 16 mm film. Released in 1971, this fully electronic model was the most advanced camera Bolex offered at the time. Due to its portability and rugged, self-contained design, the EBM immediately became a staple in documenting the Vietnam war. Earlier Bolex 16 mm cameras were also the choice of avant-garde art filmmakers such as Jonas Mekas and Stanley Brakhage, as well as the world's foremost wildlife cinematographers, like Wolfgang Bayer. These cameras are largely credited with liberating film from the studio system and giving rise to a revolution in filmmaking.
Fast-forward to 2012 and the chemical process of film formats has been outmoded by another revolution: the digital one. You knew that. Everything from Academy Award-winning productions to your bro's last run through the park is recorded digitally. And whether it's captured on your phone or the Phantom Flex camera, shooting digital video is easy and it's instantaneous. You knew that, too. Yet despite the obvious convenience of trading film reels for hard drives, Absinthe chooses to continue shooting their movies primarily on film using the trusty old Bolex. To the viewer, the difference may be subtle, but it's there. To Nicolas Müller, "Film is more alive. It's like listening to music on a computer versus playing vinyl on a record player."
Absinthe founder and visionary Justin Hostynek explains the real reasons he shoots film: "I just feel there's a cheapness to digital. There are some exceptions but for the most part it doesn't look as cool. If you're documenting the best snowboarding, then you should use the best medium and to me it's film, shot with a camera you can put in your backpack and carry around. The new Red cameras are sick, but can you really keep up with Nicolas and not slow him down with one of those? No, you cant. It's just not possible. The shit is so heavy it's just an anchor for the crew. You're also dealing with an incredibly sophisticated computer in the backcountry, and I like to film in the elements—when it's snowing, when it's shitty—I like to show that side of things. With the Red you need two people just to keep the thing dry. In the mountains, you have to get a flow going and keep it going; and until they make the new shit a lot lighter, it's going be like, 'Okay, wait for the camera guy.' You just don't want to be that guy in the crew. The flow is everything, and it's up to the filmer to tap into the rider's flow. If you're holding them up, you're not doing your job."
And if there's anyone who's an expert on the job of a snowboard filmmaker, it's Justin Hostynek. Nico says he's "one of the hardest-working cinematographers out there … an artist in snowboarding, one of only a handful that exist." Justin has shot more legendary snowboarding in Alaska than anyone; he introduced the cable cam, a.k.a. the Hover-Track Jet-Pack, to backcountry filming; and after more than 20 years of documenting the world's best riders, he continues to spend upward of 100 days a year in the snow. Gigi Rüf says Justin may actually be "Mister Winter himself." He's made a snowboard movie every year since 1992 when his first, Anthem, was released. It featured guys like "J2" Rasmus, Tarquin Robbins, and Todd Richards. Ironically it was shot entirely in digital.
Absinthe Films Legacy Trailer
At this stage, Justin's preference for 16 mm film is as much a matter of practicality as it is style. The character of film, with its grain and texture has become one of the hallmarks of the Absinthe aura. "There's just something misty and mysterious about the way the movies look," says JP Solberg, "a little bit out there, like they're from another world." Solberg filmed his very first part with Absinthe, a classic ender in 2002's Transcendence that features trippy scenes of him hitting jumps in a pink bunny suit to The Beatles' "A Day In The Life." JP went on to film many more parts including 2010's Neverland and 2011's Twelve, with the crew that "feels like a family," he says.
Absinthe's riders and crew aren't the only ones stoked on the 16 mm film feel. Consider the fact while every other rider in X Games' Real Snow Backcountry competition shot digi, Nicolas Müller and Hostynek's entry was shot on film, then processed and transferred all before the editing could even begin. Their process made the already tough time constraints even tougher, and yet it won. But this fact points toward the real key to Absinthe's enduring strength, and that's the riding.
It was the year 1999 when Swiss-born Californian Hostynek met Swiss photographer-filmer-hustler Patrick Armbruster. Primarily a filmer at the time, "Brusti" was working on a plan for an all-Euro shred film and enlisted Justin to help to get the job done. "The Euros were not getting the attention they deserved when we started. Our intention was to shine a spotlight on them and show there's just as much talent on that side of the planet," Justin explains.
Brusti adds, "All of the film companies were based in Tahoe, and the movies were dominated by American riders. We decided it was time to change that."
The following year, Justin would produce and direct Tribal, the pair's first collaboration. Tribal introduced a new generation of European riders to an international audience. The mispronounced names of guys like Romain de Marchi, Nicolas Müller, and Wolle Nyvelt began to spread. The next year saw the release of what Brusti calls "the first real, true Absinthe film," Transcendence, and this time a new kid from Jackson Hole named Travis Rice joined the all-Euro roster. With big-mountain killers like Axel Pauporté and Yannick Amevet, plus the trickery of Gigi, Nico, Wolle, et cetera, the early Absinthe films began a push toward combining Alaska-style big-mountain riding with progressive freestyle. Over the past decade, riders like Jonaven Moore, Müller, Rice, Romain, and others merged these two approaches into one, creating a true backcountry freestyle movement that has become a trademark of Absinthe films and the gold standard of progressive snowboarding.

Related story: New heart sought for Paisley Mae at Loma Linda University Children's Hospital
APPLE VALLEY -- Paisley Mae Arnold, the 4-month-old Apple Valley infant who needs a heart transplant, was successfully placed on a Berlin Heart earlier this week and is still waiting for a donor.
"Paisley is a fighter," said Darrell Feuerhahn, a friend of her parents, Rick and Charity Arnold. Feuerhahn and Rick Arnold are also firefighters with the San Bernardino County Fire Department stationed in Hesperia. "This is tough for Rick and Charity to go through, but I know Paisley will come through with flying colors." Paisley was born without a left coronary artery and needs a heart transplant to survive.
Loma Linda University Medical Center Children's Hospital surgeons placed Paisley on the Berlin Heart, an external device which helps the patient's own heart pump blood more efficiently, on Monday. It's a way to keep the smiling infant alive until a donor can be found, Feuerhahn said.
There were some scary moments for Paisley after the surgery which led to some bleeding into her lungs, according to Feuerhahn, but Wednesday morning, he said surgeons informed family and friends Paisley's lungs had cleared up and she was getting stronger.
A Facebook page has been set up for Paisley where people can receive updates on her condition. There are also links on the page where people can donate to the Arnold family. For more information, visit www.Facebook.com/ChangeofHeartforPaisleyMae.

PHILADELPHIA - Head Coach Mike McLaughlin and the University of Pennsylvania women's basketball team officially welcome the program's five newest members on Wednesday. Sade Gibbons, Jackie Falconer, Melanie Lockett, Stephanie Cheney and Sydney Stipanovich join the Quakers as members of the Class of 2017.
"This is an exciting class for us," said McLaughlin, who enters his fifth season at the helm of the Quakers. "We are really fortunate with this group. We were able to satisy a lot of needs, and at the same time, bring in accomplished, quality players who can make an impact."
Each of Coach McLaughlin's first three recruiting classes produced the Big 5 Rookie of the Year. Prior to his tenure, only one Penn player had ever earned the award. The Class of 2017 is another well-decorated group featuring a McDonalds All-America nominee, two state champions, four 1,000-point scorers, four all-state honorees and a valedictorian.
The class consists of three forwards (Falconer, Gibbons and Cheney), one guard (Lockett) and one center (Stipanovich). The class represents four different states. Stipanovich has the longest trip to Philadelphia from St. Louis, Mo., while Falconer hails from the home state of Pennsylvania (Mechanicsburg). Lockett (Monsey) and Gibbons (Springfield Gardens) are both New York natives, and Cheney travels past the beltway and up I-95 from Falls Church, Va.
In addition to the five incoming freshmen, Penn returns all five starters from the 2012-13 squad that earned the program's first-ever postseason victory and reached the semifinals of the Women's Basketball Invitational. Penn's 18 wins tied for second-most in program history and the team's nine non-league wins matched the school record set in 1999-00. Penn's 18-13 overall record marked the first winning season since 2004-05 and the team's best record since the 2000-01 team set the school standard with 22 wins.
A full individual bio, as well as insight from Coach McLaughlin is available below for each of the members of the Class of 2017.

You got something when you find a prototype in a bar. Now, we got zero. Apple uses to mislead us in several ways due to the anxious people chasing its tale for the "find out" race. I prefer to wait, enjoy the magic moment when happens and not waste time trying to discover the magician trick. Its an expensive, long lasting, well crafted show since 1997 (The Return of the Jedi) so i enjoy that way.
If it's not called iPhone 4XX (where XX is another letter(s)), it will be called iPhone 5, the only logical and sensical name.
And before the inevitable, "but it's not the 5th iPhone" comments....when has that ever stopped products from getting a numbered name when the number doesn't correspond to the nth version.
Video games are a prime example. Assassin's Creed 3 is the 5th game. Halo 4 is the 6th game. Resident Evil 6 is like the 10th game. (I might be wrong with some of those, but the point remains)
iPhone 5 makes sense and any argument to call it iPhone 6 does not.
It'll be called, 'the new iPhone'...
The new iPhone...because Tom cook what's something of his own...but it should be the called the Steve jobs iPhone...because he was the brains behind the iPhone
Seriously I don't care what they call the phone.
Holy crap, who would have guessed?
if they call it the new iphone, ima laugh in their face.
It's funny how no one noticed that apple also named the MacBook Pro the new MacBook Pro. No one cares about this but there is a lot of commotion for the new iPad...
Apple are just stupid and have no imagination when it comes to naming things.
Look at the iPad. They already have an iPad but they had to name the latest one iPad. Did they forget they already have one named that?
I would expect something stupid like iPhone again. Then what comes next? The new iPhone 3G?
And it is the 6th iPhone so if they name it iPhone 5 they really are stupid.
But who really cares. People thought the 4S was going to be iPhone 5 and there was a big uproar when it got released as 4S so I think no matter what people guess they will change their minds in the end and call it something stipid like iPhone 4T or some stupid name like that.
How about being original and call it something like iPhone Peter, or iPhone teacup? Something with a tiny bit of thought to it.

How Navy and Ole Miss Met in the 1955 Sugar Bowl
After the debacle of the 1954 game, the Mid-Winter Sports Association felt obligated to reestablish itself as the premier bowl. The Sugar went hunting in new territory: the service academies. Army and Navy still had college football glitter, and both were excellent football teams. Either one would be a bowl coup.
In the Deep South, fate played a hand in the Sugar Bowl's 1955 pairing. Ole Miss ran away from the SEC field with a 9-1-0 record. The Rebels led the country in total defense and were fifth in offense, although some critics pointed to a "patty-cake" schedule. Arkansas, the only nationally ranked team Ole Miss played, defeated the Rebs, 6-0. However, Mississippi played exciting football and won the SEC championship.
Coach Johnny Vaught was asked how a Sugar Bowl invitation would be received in Oxford after his squad whipped LSU. Vaught replied he would like to return "because I'm still unhappy over the thing that happened down there two years ago (Georgia Tech's 1953 victory)." Rebel players weren't concerned about a game played two years ago. They wanted a Cotton Bowl invitation for another shot at Arkansas. Razorback Coach Bowden Wyatt slammed that door in Ole Miss' face by telling Dallas officials he saw no reason why he should give a regular season opponent a repeat game.
Army wasn't interested in Sugar Bowl "feelers." However, Navy was, and the Cotton Bowl also moved into the picture. Navy had lost two close games to Pittsburgh (19-21) and Notre Dame (0-6) but was a colorful and courageous squad. Coach Eddie Erdelatz, after a particularly satisfying win, likened his team "to that streetcar down in New Orleans, the one they call Desire." Thus, Navy became the "Team Named Desire."
Fullback Joe Gattuso felt certain, because of the rumors swirling around the Naval Academy during the week, that if the Midshipmen could defeat Army they would be allowed to participate in a bowl. End Ron Beagle, the Player of the Year, didn't believe it. But at halftime of a dogfight with the favored Cadets, it was confirmed. "At the half of our game with Army - we were leading 21-20, you know - Coach Erdelatz asked for our attention," said Beagle. "He told us, 'Go out and finish the job. Beat Army today and you're in the Sugar Bowl game!' That's all we wanted to know. We wanted to beat Army real bad, and we wanted to go to the Sugar Bowl, too. We went out and got both."
After beating Army, 27-20, Navy was selected as the first service academy to play in a bowl since the 1924 Rose Bowl. Navy's bowl opponent was Mississippi, who beat Mississippi State 14-0 in its last game.
According to Sugar Bowl mythology the nation applauded Navy, but realistic odds-makers looked upon the Middies as lambs about to be sacrificed to the lordly Rebels. Before the game opened, Navy was picked as a three-point favorite, a fact that irritated Vaught. "It makes no difference if Navy is the favorite," said a miffed Vaught. "I saw pictures of Navy's games with Notre Dame and Army and I'm sure we're going to win." But before the game started, Navy halfback Bob Craig came down with tonsillitis and tackle Jim Royer sustained a hip injury and both were unable to play. Noting these losses against an opponent that was 15 pounds heavier, with much deeper reserve strength and more experience, Ole Miss' stock with the odds-makers climbed. By New Year's Eve, they were a point-and -a half favorite.
A blast from the frigid winds of social change made a mark on the 1955 Sugar Bowl. Clarence Mitchell, a member of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in Washington, protested to Secretary Charles R. Thomas that Sugar Bowl tickets read they were for use by white only and that others were subject to ejection. Actually, blacks had been attending the Sugar Bowl from its inception, although they were seated in segregated areas.
Secretary Thomas replied to Mitchell by telegram, stating the Navy Department had distributed it 13,000 tickets without regard to racial restrictions, "and will be so honored regardless of any printing thereon." "The Navy statement speaks for itself," said Bernie Grenrood, then Sugar Bowl president. "no other comment is necessary."
Recap excerpted from the book "Sugar Bowl Classic: A History" by Marty Mulé, who covered the game and the organization for decades for the New Orleans Times-Picayune.

Yemen: Aid groups tackle rising drug use among young people
Drug abuse by young people is a growing problem in Yemen. With a US$100,000 grant from the Emergency Response Fund (ERF), a Danish Refugee Council (DRC) project is reducing the incidence of drug use among young people in the southern Yemeni governorate of Aden.
Twenty-year-old Ali enrolled in the Faculty of Engineering at Aden University in 2012. But by then he was already using illicit drugs, having picked up the habit from high-school friends. "I was curious," he said. "I wanted to experiment with (amphetamine) pills, but I was not aware that they could affect my health and lead to addiction."
Ali loved the kick he got from the drugs, especially when combined with qat—a mild narcotic herb that is chewed by over 80 per cent of men and 25 per cent of women in Yemen. But Ali soon developed difficulties. "I could not concentrate and became very aggressive," he explained. "I tried to quit, but could not for one-and-a-half years."
One day he met a former drug user who was working with DRC. This man convinced Ali to visit the project office. "He told me that I could get psychosocial support and treatment, and that I could freely recover from addiction in a very confidential environment," Ali said.
"It was true. Today, I am clean and focusing on my studies and want to graduate with a first-class degree."
Using drugs to mask the pain
Unlike Ali, 18-year-old Mohammed's decision to start using drugs was born out of a car accident that left him with disabled limbs. Three years ago, he quit school. Soon after, his friends encouraged him to try some pills which, they claimed, would make him feel better about himself and his disability. Starting with one pill a day, he quickly graduated to three.
"My behaviour changed," Mohammed said. "I became very aggressive and lazy. I spent most of my time sleeping or chewing qat on the pavement with my friends. Problems developed between me and my family."
Like Ali, Mohammed's life started to turn around following a chance meeting with a DRC community mobilizer.
"He told me they aim to raise the awareness of youth in Aden about the harmful effects of drugs and other dangerous behaviour," Mohammed said. "I visited the project office. My life has since improved in many ways. My family has rewarded me with a phone. I have taken an oath never to return to drugs again. Now I am looking for a job."
Ali and Mohammed live in a city that hosts refugees, migrants and other conflict-affected groups. In 2012, a large number of the 169,000 people who abandon their homes due to armed conflict sought refuge in Aden, including school children.
Drug use a growing problem in Yemen
Qat is the most common narcotic in Yemen, but younger people are now consuming stronger, more addictive drugs such as hashish, cocaine and amphetamine pills. Data on the extent of the problem across Yemen is scarce. But according to the UN Office on Drugs and Crime, about 12 per cent of illicit drug users develop drug dependency and become "problem" drug users.
Most problem drug users are young—aged between 18 and 25. According to DRC, many young people in Aden are out of school and unemployed, and they are more likely to adopt risky behaviours, including drug abuse and unsafe sexual behaviours. The rise in drug abuse has caused an increase in violence and crime, while many youths are contracting sexually transmitted diseases.
The ERF in Yemen
The DRC project targets 1,500 vulnerable men and 500 vulnerable women aged between 15 and 24 with information on the risks of drug use. The project provides treatment and support to 600 young drug users and people engaged in risky behaviour.
DRC started working in Yemen in 2008 and has since expanded to eight governorates. Its project in Aben is supported by the ERF—an OCHA-managed fund that provides humanitarian organizations with rapid, flexible funding to address critical gaps in humanitarian emergencies or to support local NGO capacity-building.
"Supporting life-saving programmes is a key ERF activity," said Trond Jensen, Head of OCHA Yemen. "In Amran Governorate, where conflict recently flared up, the ERF approved $1.35 million for national organizations to assist 137,000 displaced people and host communities. We are grateful to our donors who strongly support the fund."
Since the start of this year, the ERF in Yemen has provided $4.8 million in funding for 15 projects. The majority of this money has supported international NGOs, such as DRC, as well as local Yemeni organizations.

MU Raptor Rehabilitation Project
Will Return Bald Eagle to the Wild
The University of Missouri Raptor Rehabilitation Project will release a mature bald eagle named "Dysprosium" back into the wild at 1 p.m., Saturday, Aug. 18, following seven months of medical and surgical rehabilitation. The event will take place at the Swim and Tennis Cove at the Village of Four Seasons at the Lake of the Ozarks.
Dysprosium was found down at the Lake of the Ozarks in January by an astute member of the community who noticed that the eagle could not fly normally. He was then brought to the Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital at the University of Missouri by a Conservation Department agent. He was severely anemic and very thin. He had two fractured bones at the tip of his left wing, called the major metacarpal and minor metacarpal. These bones were already healing, so they did not require surgery. He was treated for the anemia and started gaining weight. He was recovering well, when an infection developed in his healing bones. As a result, he had to have surgery to remove the infected pieces of bone. After he recovered from surgery, he was moved to a flight cage, where he has been regaining strength and flying ability.
When the eagle was brought in, the project's current naming theme was elements of the periodic table. The unusual name comes from element 66, a very rare type of metal. The Raptor Rehabilitation Project will sell chances for the opportunity for one lucky person to release Dysprosium! Tickets are $1 each, or seven for $5.
The Raptor Project is a nonprofit organization and all money raised will be used to care for injured birds, as well as provide ongoing care for the organization's nine resident birds that cannot be returned to the wild. The project educates the public about birds of prey, combining natural history and species information with personal experience to deliver educational programs throughout mid-Missouri. The project also gives veterinary students, community members, and other students the opportunity to work hands-on with professional veterinary medical faculty and cutting-edge technology to rehabilitate and release injured or ill birds. The College of Veterinary Medicine provides the vital financial support for medical care, housing and food for these majestic creatures, and project funds are supplemented by private donations.
This event is free and open to the public. The Raptor Rehabilitation Project encourages community members and students to volunteer for opportunities, including helping to feed and care for birds of prey, as well as participating in its educational programs.

LAKEWOOD — Lakewood Regional Medical Center and a nearby school were locked down for about an hour Tuesday while police searched for a suspect with a gun.
No suspect was found, and the hospital and school, St. Pancratius Catholic School, were reopened by about 1:15 p.m., according to police and hospital officials.
A nurse told authorities she had seen a visitor with a weapon in his or her waistband, and that the person was engaged in an argument with another person at the facility.
"From what I understand it was a disgruntled relationship between a patient and a boyfriend, husband, something of that nature," said Patrick Houston, marketing director for the hospital. "They were disgruntled and there was some kind of argument or some kind of a disagreement and one of our nurses thought she saw a weapon."
More than 100 employees and patients gathered outside the hospital, located at 3700 E. South St., while police searched the three-story building.
Emergency and operating services were not affected.
"The main thing is no patients or employees were in any immediate danger," Houston said. "Nobody ever pulled a weapon out. Nobody ever pointed a weapon at anybody."

Complete Football Weekly Release in pdf format
Photos courtesy of Brown Athletic Communications, Dartmouth Varsity Athletics Communications and Penn Athletic Communications
PRINCETON, N.J. -- The 2012 Ivy League football season comes down to its final Saturday with the resting location of the conference's traveling trophy for the next year clearer but not yet determined.
Penn can bring the trophy back to Philadelphia for the first time since 2010 with a win at Cornell to close the season. A win would give Penn its 16th Ancient Eight crown, its the 13th outright, and would be the ninth overall and outright championship under head coach Al Bagnoli. A Quakers' loss coupled with a Harvard win in the 129th meeting of "The Game" and a Princeton victory over Dartmouth would cause the League's first three-way tie for the title since 1982.
"Inside Ivy League Football," hosted by Dan Loney and Brian Seltzer, caps off Season 2 with its 10th and final episode on Wednesday, Nov. 14 at 7 p.m.
"Inside Ivy League Football" is a weekly online radio show that takes an in-depth look at all the on-field gridiron action and all the news and notes surrounding football in the Ancient Eight. The 10-episode show airs Wednesdays at 7 p.m. on BlogTalkRadio.com (blogtalkradio.com/insideivyleaguefootball) and is available on-demand via BlogTalkRadio and IvyLeagueSports.com.
Brown senior quarterback Patrick Donnelly (Longmeadow, Mass.) accounted for all four touchdowns, throwing for two and running for two more, in the Bears' 28-24 win over Dartmouth. Donnelly completed 20-of-32 passes for 233 yards with touchdown tosses of 11 and 18 yards. Trailing by 10 points in the fourth quarter, he pulled Brown to within three points by scoring on a three-yard run, scrambling right and then left and back to the right before heading into the end zone, with 6:39 remaining. Donnelly then directed the Bears on an 80-yard scoring drive, passing for 77 of the 80 yards and throwing an 18-yard touchdown pass to senior wide receiver Jonah Fay with 1:14 remaining to give Brown the victory.
Columbia senior defensive lineman Josh Martin (Aurora, Colo.) was a dominant force in an Empire State Bowl win over Cornell with three of the Lions' six sacks. Martin made the game's key playing in the third quarter, forcing a fumble on a nine-yard sack. The Columbia offense took advantage and converted the turnover to points with the go-ahead touchdown in a 34-17 win over the Big Red.
Penn senior defensive lineman Brandon Copeland (Sykesville, Md.) had his biggest moment at the biggest time with the Ivy League title on the line in the Quakers' 30-21 win over Harvard. In his final game at Franklin Field, Copeland sealed the victory guaranteed Penn a piece of the Ivy title with a sack and safety with 1:25 remaining. The sack was his second of the game and a part of a five-tackle effort that led the Quakers to holding the League's top offense to two total yards on its final three drives.
Penn senior punter Scott Lopano (Southlake, Texas) affected field position throughout in Penn's upset win over Harvard. Lopano punted eight times, six of them fell inside the 20-yard line. All three of his fourth-quarter punts pinned the Crimson inside its 15-yard line. Despite having to pin-in Harvard, Lopano still averaged an impressive 43.0 yards per punt. Lopano also forced six fair catches and held the Crimson to a total of seven return yards on his eight punts. Lopano's punts helped hold the fourth-best offense in the FCS and the third-highest scoring offense in the nation to its lowest point total in two years.
Columbia freshman wide receiver Chris Connors (North Olmstead, Ohio) had a highlight-reel day in the Lions' win over Cornell with six receptions for 84 yards and two touchdowns. His six catches were impressive and included a spectacular 27-yard touchdown grab.

Aviation Gets EU Attention
Aviation is a hot topic this month, with two big confabs slated.
First, on Oct. 20, EU Transport Commissioner Siim Kallas holds the first meeting of his new "aviation platform" panel of experts. The goal, Mr. Kallas says, is to get feedback from industry on real-world issues. Then, on Oct. 26 and 27, the Belgian EU presidency is hosting an Aviation Summit in Bruges.
All the attention "is certainly good news for the industry," says Ulrich Schulte-Strathaus, secretary general of the Association of European Airlines.

It has been a big year for startups with ties to the University of Chicago Booth School of Business.
Ten student businesses built and developed with guidance and resources from Chicago Booth's Polsky Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation have been involved in mergers and acquisitions this year, the most recent of which was last week's $800 million acquisition of Braintree by PayPal.
On Sept. 26, eBay, the parent company of PayPal, announced it was acquiring Braintree, which helps process mobile payments. Founded by Booth alumnus Bryan Johnson, '07, Braintree was the winner of the Polsky Center's 2007 Edward L. Kaplan, '71, New Venture Challenge, the premier startup program at Chicago Booth that helps students turn entrepreneurial ideas into viable businesses.
"Our rigorous analytical and iterative process helps the students create viable business models," says Ellen Rudnick, executive director of the Polsky Center and clinical professor of entrepreneurship at Chicago Booth. "The process, coupled with our strong network of resources, is truly valuable to these aspiring entrepreneurs."
Other New Venture Challenge winners and Booth startups involved in mergers or acquisitions over the past year are:
"The Polsky Center provides a unique and extremely productive process for creating successful businesses," said Professor Steven Kaplan, Neubauer Family Distinguished Service Professor of Entrepreneurship and Finance and founding faculty member of the New Venture Challenge class.
The process starts with the vetting of the idea, and then students work to develop a business model by giving presentations, getting feedback and making adjustments as they work toward launching viable, and potentially profitable, startups, according to Kaplan.
"The new venture challenge begins with our terrific students. We systematically introduce the students to our network of mentors. We establish tight deadlines that create a sense of urgency and it pays off."

Someone remind me why so many cage girls wrongly get reputations for being easy? *cough* :PDepends. Post a pic and we'll see lol.
Hope it goes well for you Ian! £300 is an amazing price for a fighter who has been to the top of the UFC, and coaching the British IFL team (I believe!?) Try booking Baz Rutten, Renzo Gracie, Pat Miletich, Ken Shamrock, Mario Sperry, etc for £300!I have done a seminar in Salou, Spain before. It was a success.... dont forget a translator.
I think this is a fair enough price, as you are aware i am a massive advocate for value for money (unlike widge who is just a free loader). That is a decent offer where clubs could join together to get a cheap price

Totally entertaining
By auntie banan
from Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan
This was totally entertaining at our annual Christmas gift opening. Everyone wanted to try it. We sent it to the bar and retrieved it with a beverage inside! The remote that looked like a beer cap was very clever also. Everyone wanted to know where I purchased such a unique gift. I would recommend this as a gift idea for anyone.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

By Uncle Dan

Great piece of kit! Certainly saves time during sporting events (not having to leave the room\guests getting in the way etc). Works best on hard wood\cement\tile floors. Definitely a "topic of conversation". Down side is the number of batteries but that is tolerated for the comfort and ease that the "dispenser" moves around!Great product and I highly recommend it.
Bought as gift for son and he loved it

WAYLAND, MA – Despite the economic challenges faced by architecture, engineering, and environmental consulting firms in recent years, a large majority of firm principals continue to find that their investment in their firm is still worth more than what they paid for it, according to ZweigWhite's 2010 Principals, Partners & Ownership Survey. However, the report also finds that firm principals responding to the survey list business development, strategic marketing, and firm performance as the top challenges in 2010.
"There are aspects of being a principal that are constant no matter what state the economy is in," says Christine Brack, PMP, principal, ZweigWhite Strategic Advisory Services, which provides an in-depth forward to the 2010 Principals, Partners & Ownership Survey. "Owners from all sizes and types of firms agree that developing more business, engaging in strategic marketing, and winning projects are top priorities— followed closely by strategic planning, ownership transition, profitability, and communication."
ZweigWhite's Principals, Partners & Owners Survey of A/E/P & Environmental Consulting Firms is a comprehensive study of top managers of U.S. architecture, engineering, planning and environmental consulting firms. The survey asks hundreds of principals about their compensation, perks, privileges, ownership, work habits, and professional background. Principals also share their opinions about fellow principals, diversity among management in the industry, and other key issues. The report illustrates trends and provides comparative data throughout, as well as provides detailed breakdown of salaries, bonuses, shareholder distributions, and total compensation.
An electronic report or printed book is available for purchase from ZweigWhite at www.zweigwhite.com/p-906-principals-partners-owners-survey-2010.aspx.

Evolution Hoax
The results of an opinion poll on "Your Thoughts on the Subject of Evolution" held on a French scientific web site show that 92% of the public no longer believe in evolution
In the wake of the major impact of the distribution in France of the first volume of the Atlas of Creation, the French web site Science Actualités held an interview with Patrick Tort of the Charles Darwin International Institute and staged a public opinion poll.
According to the results of the poll, it would seem that Darwinism has come to an end in France. The poll revealed that 92% of the public do not believe that "human beings are the fruit of evolution."
While 5% of the public believe that "human beings and apes share a common ancestor," a mere 1% believes that human beings are evolved from apes.

ONTARIO - Councilman Paul Vincent Avila, a Democrat, has endorsed his opponent Mayor Paul Leon, a Republican, in their bid for the state Senate 32nd District seat.
Avila said Leon was the best candidate for the job, citing the mayor's leadership during the economic recession.
"During the last few years, our region has seen some of the most devastating economic times since the great depression," Avila said.
"Paul has led the city through those times by balancing every budget without raising taxes, adding thousands of jobs, putting more officers on our streets and fighting for our schools."
Leon and Avila are among six candidates seeking to succeed Gloria Negrete-McLeod in Senate District 32.
Democratic candidates also include Assemblywoman Norma Torres of Ontario, San Bernardino County Treasurer/Tax Collector Larry Walker, and Rialto Unified School District board member Joanne Gilbert. Republican Kenny Coble, a Pomona planning commissioner, is also a candidate.
The primary is set for March 12.
"His support is indicative of the bipartisan support this campaign has received, and I look forward to representing the entire community in Sacramento," Leon said.
Avila is the second Democrat to back the Republican mayor in the Senate race. Last month, Kareem Ahmed, who has been a major donor to the Democratic Party, announced his support for Leon.
But Avila's move was a big departure from earlier last week, when the newly elected councilman voiced his displeasure for candidate endorsements during a council meeting.
At that meeting, Avila specifically spoke about his belief that newspapers should not be endorsing candidates.
"When it comes to endorsements, they are out of line," he said.
The endorsement ultimately came from that same council meeting. Avila told the mayor he was rooting for him in the race, Leon said.
"I couldn't appreciate him any more," he said.
