Museum of Zoology
The Museum of Zoology, part of Cambridge University's Department of Zoology, is home to a huge variety of recent and fossil animals.
Displays trace the evolution of animal life, with intricately beautiful shells, a comprehensive collection of British birds, and many large skeletons of mammals. Our collections rival those of the major university museums world-wide, and are used for academic study by researchers within and beyond the University.
Families and group visitors enjoy our regularly-changing, free, self-led trails and activities. Our events include art and photographic exhibitions, talks and family fun days.
The entire collection of this museum is a Designated Collection of national importance.
Venue Type:
Currently closed for redevelopment. Re-opening in Summer 2016.
Public Engagement & Outreach work is ongoing.
The entire collection of this museum is a Designated Collection of national importance.
The Museum's collections date back to 1814, and draw many of the earlier specimens from the great collecting expeditions of the 19th century, including Charles Darwin's 'Beagle' voyage. The collections, which rank amongst the finest in the world, represent all major animal groups and contain a high proportion of scientifically important material such as types and holotypes, particularly noteworthy insect and mollusc material, and fine examples of extinct fauna such as the Great Auk, Thylacine, fossil tetrapods and giant marine reptiles. They provide essential baseline data from which to assess the current distribution and status of global species, and comprise a unique record for use by public and academics alike.

Intrepid what?
The name of the next Ubuntu animal in the menagerie: With its April/October release dates firmly etched in stone, Ubuntu has named its October 2008 release Intrepid Ibex. Interpid what? Ibex — it's a is a type of wild mountain goat with large recurved horns that are transversely ridged in front (and, dang, those horns are long). Here are the details right from the horse's, er Mark Shuttleworth's mouth.
The next set of names that come from Linux Mint, once they reach "Z" (Zelda?) will start again with an "A" but will end with an "e", according to Linux Mint's Clement Lefebvre. I mentioned the naming convention in the Linux Mint chapter of "Eight Distros a Week" — it's alphabetical women's names ending in "a" — and wondered aloud when they got to "Z," whether the names restarting with "A" would end in a "b." Nope, Clem says, they'll start with "A" but the last letter will be "e." Nice touch. Thanks for clarifying that, Clem.
G'day, Firefox: While Firefox's gains against Internet Exploder generally focuses on the percentages garnered in Europe, the place where Firefox is really taking off is Oceania, where 31 percent of Australians and New Zealanders are using the browser. Those are the results from a French polling firm called XiTi, and the story can be found here. And here in North America? A hefty 21 percent, third behind the Aussies and Kiwis of Oceania and the 23 percent of Europe.
Rolling Funder: The blogger known as Helios — a man who has made it his life's mission to promote GNU/Linux at every turn — has an interesting concept in a recent blog which, if it works (and my money is on it working), would make a truly sound foundation for building a truly grassroots promotional vehicle for FOSS. I'm very much on board with this one, Helios — count me in.
On the BSD side . . . Steven Rosenberg of Click is smack in the middle of a BSD odyssey which is as intriguing as it is informative and entertaining. Not only this, it has kindled my interest in attempting to get NetBSD running on one of these old Macs just one more time (although, sheesh, Steven — those 5 a.m. posting times on your blog must be murder . . . .).

I'm not really awake at 5 a.m. I just use Movable Type's "scheduling" ability to write the posts and have them appear at a predetermined time in the future.
You can do the same thing in WordPress, although it's not as obvious as to how to do it.
It does make me look like an extreme early-riser, no?

Pentecost was yesterday. My favorite Christian holy day. While it's not the shiniest, or the loudest, or even the most significant (some would say) theologically, it's still my favorite. Pentecost has great elements: fire, heat, light, freedom, wind, caring, and preaching. But best of all, Pentecost has the Holy Spirit. [Read more…]

What You'll See in a J.J. Abrams Show
Let's get this out of the way: I can't find anything about this tune or the rest of the new Kathleen Edwards album, Voyageur, that suggests Bon Iver's Justin Vernon had a hand in them, save the liner note that reads: "Produced by Justin Vernon and Kathleen Edwards." Nothing here is particularly wintry or muted. Nothing jangles or shifts quickly from soft to loud and back again. Instead, Voyageur is a pretty straightforward pop record — in fact, the most unabashedly straightforward pop record Vernon has attached his name to. Far more importantly, it's also the best batch of songs Edwards has committed her name to. Largely focused on divorce and disappointment, what could have sounded like therapy for her and a chore for us instead sounds surprisingly fun for both her and us. The best tracks here, particularly "Change the Sheets," are at once energetic and a bit stinging (as in the conclusion, "Here is the truth, I swear it used to be fun/Go ahead and run, run, run, run"). How similar or different this record would have sounded without Vernon is something we'll never know. But you've got to think that what seems like a light touch — or at least not an obvious touch — was the smart move. This song grooves and glistens with confidence and catchiness, ensuring that we'll remember it far longer than those liners notes.
Because this isn't about the loud, Elephant-like guitars; it's about how those guitars pull Ms. Lynn out of her comfort zone and into a jaw-dropping, thoroughly modern place. Jack White saw — and fully realized — her newfound potential.

Eulogy for YOUNet
You may have heard about the new social networking site for OSU students, okstateu.com. If you haven't heard the buzz about it, take a minute and acquaint yourself here. It's a pretty exciting project, and I hope it takes off. But did you know OSU actually had a social networking site before Facebook was invented? And that virtually every student on campus used it?
You.okstate.edu, YOUNet for short, was born in the spring/summer of 2001. It was originally started as an organization in the Student Government Association. Using SGA and student technology fees, the organization was able to purchase a server on which to run YOUNet. Derek Martin was the site's programmer, and two SGA leaders, Joe St. John and Huy Lee, served as administrators. Initially, there wasn't much to it. YOUNet ran on a content management platform called Synapse, written by OU student Grant Williams. I think those earliest days were spent figuring out how to build the site around Synapse.
In the Fall of 2001, Derek, Huy and Joe hired freshman Jeff Clark as the site's first intern. Jeff worked with Joe to market the site, and also began learning graphic design. Over the next year, Jeff provided more design elements and content to the site, while Derek continued to work on features.
By Fall 2002, Huy and Joe had stopped their involvement with YOUNet, presumably to focus on serving as SGA President & Vice-President. Derek and Jeff remained through the summer of 2002, and once again tried to recruit interns to support the site. I met Derek at Camp Cowboy, where he was a part-time counselor and I was a soon-to-be college Freshman. Derek pitched YOUNet to me, and I came on board the first or second week of school. Another girl, Candin Richmond, was also hired to help with marketing and administration, because Derek was going to participate in the Semester at Sea program.
I was hired to create and edit content, and to recruit others to write for the site. We decided that I should write a daily blog about my adventures as a new college student, and we called the blog Frosh Meets World. In addition to my blog, we also wrote reviews of music and movies, interviews of interesting people (or strangers I met on the elevator), sports articles, top-ten lists, write-ups of campus events, and a parody of the school's daily newspaper, which we called the Weekly U'Lassie.
Feature-wise, the site had okstate.edu email access, forums, a classifieds section, church directory, local business information such as hours and reviews, restaurant menus, a calendar of events, a weekly update of the cafeteria menu, and, of course, blogs.
We held marketing events such as 'Sleep with YOU' – a movie night out on library lawn. We chalked and passed out promotional items like buttons and noisemakers for Football games. At one point, we set up a dating service called 'Date with YOU' – we took applications and dating profiles to send two people on an awkward Valentine's Day blind date, which I covered and wrote about for the site.
Unsurprisingly, the couple we sent on that date didn't make it, but YOUNet did bring two other people together. In January of 2003, Derek brought freshman Tanner Burson on board to be YOUNet's main programmer. That's how I met the man who would later become my husband.
By the spring of 2003, YOUNet had over 20,000 users in its database.* We were even able to get more student tech fee money in order to buy a second server. Things were going remarkably well.
So why did it fail? I believe the primary fault lies with President Schmidly's administration. The administration changed hands in the spring, and with that came a new group of people, mostly from Texas Tech. The new IT administrators from Tech were not supportive of our student-run domain. I presume this is because our site was the students' preferred way to access email, and because the guys from Tech weren't exactly nice to deal with (you may recall the incident with the stolen code). Also, OSU's administration has never been that supportive of student-publishing, historically speaking. At the end of Spring 2003, they refused to award the $500 stipend we had set aside for our best intern, which pretty much ruined our ability to get interns for the next semester.
In August of 2003, OSU IT took YOUNet's servers back to Whitehurst, and took Tanner with them as a student employee. Jeff and our intern, Laura Nielsen, went to the short-lived IT marketing department. Derek had already graduated. I moved to Nashville. Nevertheless, Jeff, Laura and Tanner tried to keep YOUNet. But unfortunately, IT had thrown enough obstacles in their way to make keeping the organization alive impossible. While the three of them worked and went to class, there was no one left with the energy to fight OSU IT and keep YOUNet going.
Tanner finally flipped the kill-switch on YOUNet's servers in the spring of 2004. IT took control of YOUNet's assets and redirected all traffic to my.okstate.edu.
As far as I know, Tanner and I have all that's left of the physical reminders of YOUNet – a few promotional buttons, the banner, a mousepad, and a couple of faded blue t-shirts with our logo and URL. I did keep a back up of virtually everything I wrote for YOUNet, which includes those blogs, reviews, photos, and other random bits of content.
It still makes me sad when I think of YOUNet and its lost potential. But even if YOUNet didn't make it – we did. I met my best friends through this social networking site. I met my husband. I gained a lot of experience blogging at a time when few people even knew what that meant. Truthfully, YOUNet gave all of us a head start on our careers, too. Jeff became a knock-out graphic designer in Chicago & Boston. Derek is an IT consultant in Dallas. Laura is an awesome marketing and brand consultant for SALT Branding in San Francisco. Tanner is one of the best web developers in the state. He has 7 years of serious programming experience, which he's put to work for OSU, Eskimo Joe's, several side projects like Lookit!, and numerous clients.
I hope the new okstateu.com site doesn't suffer from the problems we had, or at least can learn from the group before it. I know Bill Handy will do his best to make the new site a great experience for students. Just don't forget about YOU.
* At the time, OSU used a login system called Dexter for student email. It was atrocious. Tanner and Derek wrote a different login for YOUNet, which we advertised extensively. Students became users in order to access their email through YOUNet instead of Dexter. Most of those 20,000 users weren't active on the forums & blogs everyday, though. When Tanner went to OSU IT, his first job was to help re-write OSU's email authentication/login system.

What is coaching?
Coaching is a simple yet effective resource that provides the support and tools you need to reduce stress, address fears and create action plans to empower you so you don't feeling like you're just surviving in life.
The Coach helps the client to promote and sustain the Client's personal wellbeing and to grow instead of being overwhelmed and feeling lost, particularly during times of major challenges and change. This powerful relationship allows the Client to shift their perspective from focusing on what's not working to taking action to create more of what they want in their lives. According to an article in Psychology Today, "Whatever we expect to experience is what we actually experience."
I am a Certified Professional Coach (CPC) and an Energy Leadership Index Master Practitioner (ELI-MP). Please view my complete page of relevant training. As a life coach, my coaching is available to anyone in any time zone as coaching sessions are done by phone or Skype to save time, money and the environment. Customized packages are available.

UK Golf Teams Win NCAA Academic Award
June 5, 2013
LEXINGTON, Ky. – The University of Kentucky women's golf team and men's golf team have received public recognition awards for their Academic Progress Rate scores, the NCAA announced Wednesday.
The Wildcat squads received the award for placing in the top 10 percent of Division I schools in their respective sports. The APR provides a real-time look at a team's academic success by the progress of each student-athlete on scholarship. The APR marks are a four-year composite, covering the 2008-09 through 2011-12 school years, that measure eligibility, retention and graduation.
This is the first time that two UK teams have received the prestigious award in one year. It's also the first time that a UK squad has won in consecutive years, as this marks two in a row for men's golf. Prior to that, the UK men's cross country team was recognized in 2010 and men's basketball earned the honor in 2009.
"I'm very proud to have two teams win top-10 awards," said Mitch Barnhart, UK Director of Athletics. "Obviously, the golfers have done their job in the classroom and I thank Coach (Golda) Borst and Coach (Brian) Craig for their efforts in managing their programs."
"We are extremely excited about receiving the APR award from the NCAA," Borst said. "We are proud of what our girls accomplish on the golf course, but we are also very excited about the things they achieve in the classroom. This team really embraces the student aspect of being a student-athlete and it goes to show that hard work pays off."
"The UK men's golf program is proud to accept this Academic Progress Rate honor for the second consecutive year," Craig said. "This award is simply a reflection of two important groups. First, our guys are committed to their academics and do an excellent job in the classroom and taking care of their responsibilities. Second, a big thank you to our CATS program (Center for Academic and Tutorial Services) and, specifically, Amy Craiglow who is the finest academic counselor and mentor in all of collegiate athletics. I cannot say enough about Amy and all that she has done for this program for many years."
In addition to their success in the classroom, the teams also are doing well on the course as both squads advanced to the 2013 NCAA Regional Tournament.
The APR scores of the UK golf teams, along with the scores of every Division I team in all sports, will be released by the NCAA on June 11. Teams are subject to penalties if the APR target score is not achieved.
Wednesday's news is a continuation of the academic accomplishments of UK student-athletes over the past year. In October, it was announced that UK has broken or tied the NCAA Graduation Success Rate every year since the NCAA began measuring that statistic in 2005. UK athletes posted an overall grade-point average over 3.0 in both the fall 2012 and spring 2013 semesters, the first time that has happened in consecutive semesters, including a record 3.14 GPA in the spring.

Hi at all,
I 've already read some posts in this forum about these tools working toghether but i got an unintended result.
Here is my set up with mentioned tools on the same host :
iptables :
proxychains.conf:Code:iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 - j REDIRECT --to-port 666
squid-cache 3.0 as transparent proxy the rest of squid.conf file is unchanged except:Code:http thishost 3128
and except the http_access rules..Code:http_port 3128 transparent
I tried to use sslstrip "piped" to squid transparent proxy(in the same evil host) when doing a MITM attack with ARPSPOOF method in a lan.Code:proxychains sslstrip -l 666
Why squid? well, the next step will be to modify html content on the fly through squid and an icap server.
It doesn't work as i expect.
Squid duplicate every request to the same site to port 80 and the to port 443.
It seems squid try to get the requested http content from a site contacting it to port 80 and then to port 443 as it was in dubt about the nature(http or https) of the traffic it has to manage.
And in fact i got connections only to hosts accepting https connection!Code:[S-chain] -<>- myhost:3128 -<><>- 126.96.36.199:80-<--denied [S-chain] -<>- myhost:3128 -<><>- 220.127.116.11:443-<><>-OK
i.e trying to get google.com..i got encrypetd.google.com
I tested singularly all chain components and they work correctly.
Does proxychains tunnel via ssh the all the traffic catched by sslstrip?
p.s : i made a revert of this chain, i tried to proxify squid..but proxychains detached the squid process immediatly as strace command reports.
Thanks in advance.
Sorry,Remotely?what do you mean?
i used proxychains only to redirect sslstrip traffic through squid because they're on the same machine.
Sslstrip without squid works well but at the moment i didn't try to proxychain sslstrip to anything else different from squid to check how it behaves..and i'm wondering how can i do this,maybe proxychain sslstrip to a different machine and simply listening to a specifi port and watching traffic?

Brevard, N.C. – The Brevard College football team will have had two weeks to prepare for their South Atlantic Conference opener on Saturday afternoon, as the Tornados welcome the Lenoir-Rhyne Bears to Brevard, N.C. for a 2 p.m. kickoff.
The Tornados are coming off a much needed bye week as a number of players were nursing injuries from the rigors of the first three weeks of the season. Coach Hamilton and his staff were also glad to see the bye week come when it did, as the Tornados are looking to overcome a heartbreaking 23-20 loss at Chowan University back on September 13.
The Tornados are still looking for their offensive identity as BC threw for a school record 297 yards on 53 attempts in their 23-20 loss at Chowan two weeks ago, while rushing for only 37 yards for the game.
Offensively the Tornados will look to keep the Bears on their toes by going with a much more balanced attack. BC will look for running backs John Taylor and Tyrone Arrington to bounce back from a tough game at Chowan and help guide the rushing attack that had collected 253 yards on the ground in the first two games.
Junior quarterback Kye Hamilton, who threw for 297 yards and three touchdowns last time out, will continue to look for his receivers to make plays down the field. Look for receivers Donald Hudson and Shaton Pratt, who both had career days at Chowan, to stretch the field in hopes to open up the running lanes for Taylor and Arrington.
Offensively the Tornados are averaging 151.7 passing yards and 96.7 rushing yards per game, however, have yet to put a game together in which both the passing game and running game were complementary of one another.
Defensively, BC linebacker Stanley Jones has recorded 10 solo tackles and 12 assists with one pass breakup. Jones, along with linebackers Zac McAlister and Brandon Rawls will be asked to make plays against the Bears strong wishbone offense that is run heavy.
Shattered by injuries on the road two weeks ago, BC had a number of players that saw quality action against Chowan and will be asked to do so this week in the SAC opener. Jeremy Long, Justin Jefferson and Ricky Morton will all see a large number of snaps at the linebacker spots, looking to concentrate on stopping the Bears rushing attack.
The Tornados defense has allowed only 347 yards on the ground thus far this season, with 183 of those coming by way of Chowan two weeks ago.
The Lenoir-Rhyne Bears are coming off back-to-back losses after starting the season 2-0 with wins over West Virginia Tech University and Concord University.
The Bears have lost their last two games by a combined eight points and will again look to their new offensive look to continue to points on the board. L-R has outscored their opponents 108-60 on the season, having rushed for 12 touchdowns in their first four games.
Leading the wishbone offensive attack, which has rushed for 1,215 yards so far this season, is quarterback Justin Sanders. Sanders is only 7-of-20 for 160 yards and one interception on the year, however, he has rushed for 86 yards and one score. Sophomore fullback Andrew Courman has rushed 49 times for 209 yards and three touchdowns, while running back Jasper Thomas is averaging 6.5 yards per carry and has one score for the year.
On the defensive side of the ball, L-R is led by free safety Marcus Shuford who has a team-high 28 tackles and two interceptions. Linebacker Scott Turbeville is second on the team with 27 tackles, but has four sacks and seven tackles for a loss on the year.
The Bears have given up 580 yards on the ground and 555 yards through the air, while holding their opponents to only 15 points per game.
The kickoff time is slated for 2 p.m. at Brevard Memorial Stadium in Brevard, N.C. The shuttle buses begin running at 12 p.m. and the gates will open at that time as well, two hours prior to the opening kickoff.

GWAR raising money for GWARbar restaurant
Elaborately-costumed metal band GWAR is looking to get into the restaurant business.
The group has started a crowd-funding campaign on IndieGoGo.com to raise money for a GWARbar. They say the unique restaurant in GWAR's hometown of Richmond, Virginia will feature a beer GWARden, plenty of GWAR-B-Q sauce, and a menu of "gourmet junk food" created by GWAR guitarist Michael Derks.
Fans can help make the restaurant a reality by donating at IndieGoGo now until June 21st. Some of the incentives for those who give to the cause include a GWARbar t-shirt, an invite to a pre-opening night event, a cooking class with Chef Derks, or your name on one of the barstools.
In the meantime, GWAR's annual music and food festival known as the GWAR-B-Q is scheduled to take place August 16th in Richmond. The day before the band plans to hold a public memorial for frontman Dave Brockie, who died earlier this year.

CRM1601KZFHLC: M16-01KZ - Spear Point and LED Headlamp Set
Columbia River Knife & Tool
Here is Kit Carson's M16® Every Day Carry (EDC) with our glass filled nylon InterFrame build in black-on-black tactical dress. Our knife users told us, "We want an affordable work knife that we can give hard use without feeling guilty, and one that won't break us up if we leave it on a job site or drop it in the river."
We heard you. So we set about to make the Z EDC the best value in the work and sport knife world.
That starts with textured glass filled nylon scales and a dual stainless steel liner InterFrame. Assembled with glass filled nylon back spacers and Torx® fasteners, the result is amazingly rigid. Glass filled nylon offers excellent toughness and resistance to solvents. Lubrous washers at the blade pivot and an adjustable pivot screw allow for perfect blade action.
The blade is 8CR15MoV high-carbon stainless steel which gives an ideal combination of toughness and edge-holding ability in a work knife, and also allows easy field-sharpening.
The M16®-01KZ uses our popular spear point slim profile blade with a Razor-Sharp edge. It is ideal for fine cutting and carving tasks. It has a black EDP blade, black frame and hardware.
Of course, it features the Carson Flipper, which speeds opening of the blade and acts as a blade guard when the blade is open.
The real breakthrough was our ability to engineer our patented* AutoLAWKS™ knife safety into all models, which automatically actuates when the blades are open, making these folders into virtual fixed blades when locked.
Add to these features the standard removable stainless steel clothing/gear clip plus the CRKT limited lifetime warranty, and you have one of the truly great knife values of our time.
*U.S. Patent Nos. 5,596,808 and 7,437,822
For a limited time, this great EDC blade is available with a bonus high intensity LED Headlamp included at no additional charge.

Cookie monsters: Counterfeiters scheme Girl Scout troop out of money
A pair of counterfeiters took petty crime to a new low after they used fake money to buy Girl Scout cookies. Even worse, they reportedly got change in real cash after paying with fake $50 bills, leaving the girls stuck with the bill.
"The girls are heartbroken," Rancho Cucamonga, CA local troop leader Cheryl Williams told ABC affiliate KABC. "Because they do trust, this is a life lesson for them."
At least two thieves used the counterfeit money scam over the weekend, setting the Girl Scouts back about $200. Even worse, Williams says the girl took all the necessary precautions.
"(The girls) used the counterfeit pen on the money, and it worked," Williams told the station.
The fraudulent $50 bills were used at two different locations in Rancho Cucamonga over the weekend. In each case, the girls went into a local grocery store to make change and were told the bills were fake.
In May 2013, Girl Scouts in Oregon were victims of a similar fraud, after someone falsely tried to order $24,000 worth of cookies online through a fake company . In that case, local residents chipped in, buying thousands of boxes of the cookies to help offset the costs incurred by the local troop.
Local police officials say they are reviewing surveillance video outside the grocery stores where the sales took place. In the meantime, they have issued instructions to the Girl Scouts on how to spot a fraud: Turns out it's all in the faces that appear on the counterfeit bills.
"The difference is that if you look at the faces ... you can actually tell by the shapes of their faces that they're completely different" from real bills, San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department spokesperson Teresa McMahon told CBS Los Angeles.
Yahoo News contacted the greater Los Angeles branch of the Girl Scouts U.S.A. to see counterfeit scams are an ongoing problem or if there is any recourse for the girls, but has not had a response.
Still, becoming counterfeit bill experts might be a tall order for teens and pre-teens who are more focused on trying to raise money for their organization.

Well, I am happy to announce that I found a Girl Scout in my area and my Girl Scout Cookie order is in! Now the waiting game begins . . .
These would also be so fun for St. Patrick's Day!
-1 (9 oz) package of Girl Scout Thin Mint Cookies (or Keebler Grasshopper cookies)
-1/2 package (4 oz) cream cheese, softened (I used fat free and it worked great)
-1 (12 oz) bag Guittard's Green Mint Chips (I just found these at the grocery store)*
In a food processor, pulse the Thin Mints a few times, and then blend them down until they are just crumbs. It might be easier to do this in two batches (even if you don't have a food processor, you can still make these. Throw the cookies in a big Ziploc bag and start pounding them with a hammer until you have a lot of fine crumbs).
Next, mix the cream cheese and cookie crumbs together in a bowl until well-mixed. Roll the mixture into 1 inch size balls, and place them on a wax paper covered baking sheet. Place the baking sheet in the fridge for about 30 minutes, so the balls are easier to dip in the chocolate and do not fall apart.
Once the truffles have been in the fridge for a while, melt the green mint chips in a microwave-safe bowl in the microwave. Heat the chips for 30 seconds at a time, stirring in between each heat burst. Repeat until the chips are all melted.
Roll each ball in the melted chips until it is fully covered. I usually use two forks to push the truffle around until it is all covered. Then, using the two forks, carefully pick up the truffle and allow the excess mint chocolate to run off before placing back on the wax paper. Repeat with all the truffles.
Stick the truffles back in the fridge for a couple of minutes or until the mint chocolate is hardened.
If you want to decorate your truffles as I did, melt about 1/2 cup of white chocolate chips (or almond bark or white candy coating-whatever you want) the same way that you melted the mint chips. Spoon the white chocolate in a small Ziplock bag and cut a tiny bit of one corner off the bag. Start small at first, then if you need, make the hole a little larger. Drizzle the white chocolate over the green truffles.
Place back in the fridge until you are ready to devour eat them.
*If you can't find those green mint chips, these can be made with almond bark or vanilla candy coating. It would also be cute to set aside small amount of cookie crumbs and sprinkle them on top of the truffles. Sprinkles also look cute on these too!

When I met them they weren't actually spying at the time, they were studying Russian at Middlebury College in Vermont. Each summer there would be a group of 4 or 5 Norwegians. They were always very nice, but weren't allowed to talk about what they did back home. Spy.

I work with eating disorders that result in obesity. I also do psychological evaluations for those who are planning to have bariatric surgery. It is important to understand the underlying causes for this to have a successful outcome. It is also essential to identify the triggers that result in overeating or eating the wrong foods. There are two phases during therapy, that of weight loss, and that of weight maintenance. I provide a nonjudgmental space to deal with this issue while treating the whole person, not the eating disorder.

Look Who Filed For Bankruptcy!!!
DMX's woeful week is getting worse. Just days after being picked up on suspicion of DUI, the rapper filed for Chapter Eleven bankruptcy protection.
In court documents obtained by the "Wall Street Journal," DMX - whose real name is Earl Simmons - claims he has less than $50,000 in assets and owes between $1 million and $10 million.
In a statement, the rapper's rep, Domenick Nati, says DMX's financial woes have been "inhibiting his career for several years" and has also caused him to become ineligible to retain a passport. Nati says the rapper hopes filing for bankruptcy helps him reorganize his finances so he can perform in an overseas tour this fall.
Last Friday, DMX was arrested in Greenville, South Carolina for suspicion of driving under the influence. The rapper's camp later released a statement saying he had not been charged for DUI because he passed a breathalyzer test.

Helisek unhittable in third career start
Cardinals' 30th-round pick fans two over six shutout innings
By Danny Wild / MLB.com | July 18, 2012 6:17 PM ET
Helisek tossed six hitless innings in his third start in the Cardinals' system, striking out two before reaching his pitch count in short-season Batavia's 2-1 loss to Jamestown.
"I knew he wasn't going to let me go three more," Helisek said, referring to Muckdogs skipper Dann Bilardello. "He said I wasn't going to win the argument."
Helisek, the Cardinals' 30th-round pick last month out of Villanova, worked 1-2-3 innings in every frame but the third, when Juancito Martinez reached on first baseman David Washington's error. Helisek and catcher Jonathan Keener took care of that when the lefty picked off the Jammers' lone baserunner and retired the final 10 batters he faced.
For Helisek, a no-hitter came into focus around the sixth. By then, after four outings in which he hadn't gone more than 4 2/3 innings, his night was over.
"I think, to be honest, the sixth, when I got taken out after two times through the order, I'm thinking, 'Three more innings, nine more outs, I can do this,'" Helisek said. "And that's when I got the news I was done."
Helisek, like countless Minor Leaguers before him, took a seat with a no-hitter in progress. He handed the ball to Brandon Creath, who kept the gem intact in the seventh but gave up two hits in the eighth.
"As soon as I came in, Dann Bilardello told me right away," Helisek said. "I mean, I just kinda accepted it. It was early."
Helisek lost what would have been his second victory when Jamestown rallied for a walk-off win against Lee Stoppelman.
Win or not, it was a dominant effort by the Pennsylvania native, who said the deepest he took a no-hitter in college was about the eighth.
"I knew I was on a pitch count, but that's always in the back of your mind," Helisek said. "It's definitely hard to come out of that situation."
The 22-year-old, who pitched four seasons at Villanova, said he fed Jamestown a steady diet of heat after his curveball felt off in the bullpen.
"I threw a ton of fastballs. I knew in my bullpen I didn't love my breaking ball," he said. "I knew I had to keep my fastball low. Every pitch, I moved in and out and kept it low. It worked well for me today."
Only fastballs? Not quite, but in the New York-Penn League, sometimes that's all you need.
"I would say fastballs in and out, locating, and I mixed in a lot of changeups," Helisek said. "Our catcher, Keener, did a good job calling pitches, so that was really helpful."
Helisek's pick-off in the third was a case of Batavia guessing right. He threw to first and Washington fired to shortstop Alex Mejia for the tag.
"To be honest, after I saw my second baseman [Breyvic Valera] catch it, I put my head down and then heard the crowd cheer," Helisek said. "I got two pick-off calls from our catcher, so credit to him. He read that one and we got him, so it was good."
The outing will be another lesson in the Minors, something Helisek said he's adjusting to well since leaving Villanova ranked sixth in school history in innings pitched.
"It's been great, playing out here, and it's nice to go out and have a great defense behind you," he said. "For the most part, we're hitting well, so it's a great feeling. I've been really enjoying it, definitely learned a lot and it's only been a month and a half."
Jamestown trailed until rallying in the ninth. Martinez drew a leadoff walk, Cameron Flynn reached on a bunt and a groundout by Jesus Solorzano moved both runners into scoring position. Matt Juengel followed with a line drive to center field for a walk-off single.

The purpose of the HVADC is the development, promotion, enhancement and retention of the agricultural industry and its associated economic and environmental benefits within New York's Hudson Valley. HVADC promotes the Hudson Valley as an attractive, viable region for agriculture through technical assistance, business development services and the coordination of financial and other resources.
HVADC differentiates itself from other economic development entities in the region by focusing its programming on a narrow set of industry clusters:
• Production Agriculture
• Value-added food processing
• Agriculturally related marketing and distribution
• Agriculturally related alternative energy production
• Agro/culinary tourism
• Agricultural biotechnology and related research
Columbia, Dutchess, Orange and Ulster Counties have joined to form the Hudson Valley AgriBusiness Development Corporation. Each Counties' Economic Development Offices have committed financial resources to HVADC. In addition the Dyson Foundation, Hudson River Bank & Trust Foundation, USDA Rural Development, NYS DOS Quality Communities Program and several NYS Legislative Line Items have been awarded to encourage the development of the HVADC and support its projects.
In general, HVADC strives to enhance the bottom line of farm businesses and strengthen the agricultural industry as a whole. The range of projects assisted thus far includes processing facilities and value-added initiatives, analysis and start up assistance for new ventures and enterprises, marketing assistance, market expansion and improvement of distribution networks for the region's agricultural businesses.
During its start-up year of 2007, HVADC was able to direct significant resources, both professional and technical, to agricultural development projects. These projects ranged widely in concept to include the development of a farmer-owned vegetable processing facility, feasibility analysis for a local biodiesel manufacturing plant, business start-up support for a renewable fuels related biotechnology start-up, and fundraising for a local dairy processing cooperative.

Q. Lately it seems that I have seen more plastic bumpers left behind from traffic collisions than before. If towing companies are paid to remove vehicles … why aren't they responsible to assure that all remnants of the accidents are removed? Is it Caltrans' or some other agency's responsibility?
– Bill Niccum,
Laguna Beach
A. If it's OK, Bill, Honk will stick to freeways on this one.
The California Highway Patrol is in charge of ensuring that freeway lanes are clear, while the shoulders are on, well, Caltrans' shoulders.
Various parties work together to clean up the scene. Troy Christensen, a CHP officer and spokesman, said he has gotten a second broom from tow truck drivers more than once and teamed up to sweep away debris.
Stuff not carted away that is OK to sit around for a while – say a bumper – is dragged to the shoulder and Caltrans picks it up later. If something can't wait – say a guardrail got whacked and is jutting into a lane – the officer reports an "immediate hazard" and Caltrans rolls out, even if workers have to be put on overtime, to fix it or haul it away.
Yvonne Washington, a Caltrans spokeswoman for Orange County, said a particular problem is when two cars crash and officers or Caltrans aren't told. "A lot of times, debris is left."
Washington said the public can report the junk, any time of day or night, to her agency at 949-936-3600.
Q. Howdy Honk. I live in a neighborhood where parking is sometimes crowded on our streets, and I would like to park in front of my own driveway. I notice that neighbors do so but I have refrained. I thought it is illegal to block even one's own driveway. Would you please clear up this issue for me?
– Milt Rouse,
Dana Point
A.Well, Milt, state law says motorists can't block a private or public driveway. But Deputy Paul Villeneuve, in the Traffic Division of the Orange County Sheriff's Department, which patrols your town, said "the spirit of the law" would likely get you a pass; his agency just wants to make sure the vehicles in your garage and driveway can get out.
Before citing, for example, an officer might run your plates to see if they match the dwelling's owner, or knock on the door.
Got a question? Contact Honk at email@example.com. See Honk online: ocregister.com/honk.

The first warmer, blue skies in a while didn't last long.
As the storm blew in from the north in the late afternoon on Thursday, a light snowfall and a breeze soon accelerated to 1 to 2 inches of snow every hour and 40 mph to 60 mph winds by the evening. Meteorologists expected that the storm, which will last off and on through at least Friday night, would drop 5 to 10 inches of snow in the valleys along the Wasatch Front and central and southern mountains, plus 6-12 inches on the benches and 1-2 feet in the mountains.
"This storm was going to be a run of the mill storm in the mountains, with one to two feet [of snow], what you usually see, but down in the valleys the intensity of the storm was going to be pretty severe," said Brian McInerney, a hydrologist for the National Weather Service in Salt Lake City.
As of about 8 p.m. Thursday, Centerville reported 8 inches of accumulation, Deer Valley Resort reported 6.5 inches, Stansbury Park in Tooele County and South Ogden reported 6 inches, the Avenues in Salt Lake City saw 5 inches of snow on the ground. Around 9 p.m., Cedar City even saw 2-3 inches of snow on its northeast side.
The strong winds and heavy snow made for slow and treacherous commutes across the state.
The Utah Highway Patrol reported 60 crashes in Salt Lake County between 4 p.m. and 9 p.m., one of those resulting in injuries, and Utah County had 14 crashes with no injuries during the same time frame. Such totals were not immediately available for other areas of the state.
But some of the crashes on Thursday were caused by drivers waiting in their vehicles on the side of highway for troopers to respond. UHP urged motorists that if they get involved in a minor crash to move off to the next exit before calling 911.
Public transit passengers felt the stalled commute as much as anyone.
"Our buses are stuck in the traffic with everyone else," said Utah Transit Authority spokesman Gerry Carpenter, some running 15 minutes to one hour behind schedule depending on where the snow plows had cleared the roads and highways. As of 6 p.m., UTA had to shut down its bus routes east of Weber State University in Ogden, in the Avenues in Salt Lake City and east of Highland Drive in Salt Lake County, since the buses were too big and heavy to maneuver the steep, snow- packed roads.
Frozen switches in the FrontRunner lines also delayed some passengers Thursday, Carpenter added.
The snowstorm brings with it a considerable risk for snow slides in the Logan, Ogden, Salt Lake and Provo area mountains on Friday, according to the Utah Avalanche Center, up from their moderate risk ratings on Thursday.
The heavy snow also shut down some Utahns' evening plans.
It was a snow day for students of the Ogden-Weber Applied Technology College, and the Ogden Symphony Ballet Association canceled its violin concerto performance Thursday night. All of the public libraries in Salt Lake County also closed early about 6 p.m. so that patrons and staff could get home.
Marcus MacDonald, a barista at a Salt Lake City coffee shop, noticed a lot of patrons were staying home Thursday night, rather than brave the slippery route to the business. He wasn't too concerned with his own drive home from work he lives close by. "But I'm not looking forward to digging [my car] out when I get home."
At least the storm makes for more breathable air than the valleys have had for days. Much of Utah started Thursday in the "red," or unhealthy air-quality zone, but the Utah Division of Air Quality graded breathability for the most of the state as "green," or healthy, beginning Friday, except for Uintah and Duchesne counties, which were rated "yellow," or moderate.
Another upside?
"It's going to be a great day for skiing [on Friday]," McInerny said.

Snowfall will remain heavy at times through Friday, gradually tapering off Friday night. The snow will diminish over much of the state by Saturday morning. Temperatures are also expected to remain below or close to freezing through the weekend, with daytime highs expected to dip 20 to 30 degrees in most places on Friday.

graffiti is about more than just a medium. u can use spray paint to paint anything but just the act of using that paint doesnt make it graffiti.
you can paint a mural using spraypaint but its not graffiti. even if ur a graffiti artist but u decided just to paint a mural its still a mural. graffiti is about letters. all of this has already been said im pretty sure.
and as was said before if your letters dont flow then its going to be astheticly wrong isnt it. toys arnt being taught a super specific style just the most basic elements of letter construction.
thats no different to being in art class. your still being taught by people who are more advanced than u. what you do when u finish art school is your choice, you can throw out whatever concepts u hated but it will still form the basis of your artwork. if u have no lettr structure then its just going to look like shit

Small Decrease In Holiday Travel Predicted
An estimated 34.8 million people will travel over the upcoming Memorial Day weekend, a drop of nearly 1%. AAA Travel says the decline can be blamed on a big dip in the number of people who will be flying for the weekend. The agency says the faltering economy and an end of the payroll tax holiday have made budgets tight for travelers. AAA's president says people are becoming more reluctant to fly because of baggage fees, security hassles and higher ticket costs.

Golden Lion Tamarin
Photograph by Mark W. Moffett
The critically endangered golden lion tamarin is named for its striking orange mane. Golden lions live primarily in the trees. They sleep in hollows at night and forage by day while traveling from branch to branch. Long fingers help them stay aloft and snare insects, fruit, lizards, and birds.
Japanese Macaque

Japanese macaques, also called snow monkeys, live farther north than any other non-human primates. Their thick coats help them survive the frigid temperatures of central Japan's highlands. But when the mercury really plummets, they go to plan B: hot-tubbing in the region's many thermal springs.

What's New: News and Notes
Farewell to three Board Members
The Salisbury University Foundation recently bid farewell to three long time board members who served a collective 63 years with the organization.
They are: Klein Leister of Pocomoke City, MD, 25 years; Dr. John Shenasky II of Salisbury, 22 years; and Lloyd Beatty of Easton, MD, 16 years.
"They have all shared their wisdom and their wit with this board and each has been extremely generous to this University and our Foundation," said Henry Hanna in one of his last acts as Foundation chair. Though he is stepping down from the lead position, he will remain a Foundation member.
Leister, a board member since 1979, became the Foundation's sixth emeritus board member upon his retirement, joining such luminaries the late Richard Henson, the late Edward H. Nabb, Charles Fulton, Frank Perdue and Dick Young. The retired owner of a bookkeeping and real estate firm, Leister and his wife, MaryLee, have been generous benefactors to SU. The Grand Staircase of the Alumni House and Dean's Office in the Franklin P. Perdue School of Business are named in their honor.
A former radio station owner, Leister has been a strong supporter of WSCL, the Foundation's National Public Radio affiliate at SU, serving as chair of the Foundation's Public Radio Committee. The Pocomoke City resident earned the SU President's Club Stewardship Award for his contributions to the campus in 2000. He is past president of the Foundation Board. He and his wife have been active in area philanthropy, and he is president of the board of Hartley Hall Nursing Home.
Shenasky, a board member since 1982, said he enjoyed seeing the Foundation grow during his tenure and admired the quality of the educational opportunities and campus amenities SU offers its students and the public. The chair of Peninsula Regional Medical Center's Division of Urology, he is past president of the Maryland Urological Society and PRMC Medical Staff.
Citing WSCL and the Salisbury Symphony Orchestra, Shanasky said, "I think the University is one of those things that really makes Salisbury a special place."
In addition to his work with the Foundation, the Salisbury resident volunteers as treasurer of the Community Foundation of the Eastern Shore and Christ United Methodist Church.
Beatty, who joined the board in 1988, received the Foundation's 2004 Stewardship Award, honoring his commitment to SU. A past chair of the board, Investment and Audit Committee chair and vice chair of gifts and grants, he was instrumental in helping the Foundation's investment performance top all other University System of Maryland institutions and affiliated foundations each year during his leadership.
A Talbot County resident, Beatty is the father of an SU alumnus, Scott Beatty (1975) and is also an annual SU benefactor. The president and former owner of the Eastern Shore's largest accounting firm, Beatty Satchel & Co., he also has volunteered as chair of the Memorial Hospital Board in Easton, MD, and as an officer of the Mid-Shore Community Foundation. He was named one of Maryland's Most Beautiful People for service and volunteerism in 1997.
Perdue-Kresge Campaign A Success
SALISBURY, MD—Salisbury University celebrated St. Patrick's Day by honoring some 200 special friends whose gifts are making possible a new $1.6 million endowment through the University's Perdue-Kresge Challenge Campaign.
At a colorful reception bringing together donors, students and the campus organizations that are the beneficiaries of the endowment, SU President Janet Dudley-Eshbach expressed the University's appreciation to the community: "We could not have raised this money without the generous match offered by the Perdue-Kresge Challenge. I am most grateful to the Perdue family, to the Kresge Foundation and to the Community Foundation of the Eastern Shore for creating this opportunity.
"Matching funds—the opportunity to double your investment—are a powerful motivator for donors." Contributors donated $800,000 that then was doubled by Frank and Mitzi Perdue and the Kresge Foundation in endowment accounts at the Community Foundation of the Eastern Shore. The first endowment dispersal was recently made. Five campus groups have benefited and the President praised donors to each:
One of the largest gifts was by Peter and Judy Jackson of Tyaskin, MD, who made a challenge grant of $100,000 to benefit the Salisbury Symphony Orchestra. With the response of other symphony supporters and the Perdue-Kresge match their gift quadrupled to $400,000.
Other major contributors included:
Dr. Phillip and Carol Bosserman, formerly of Salisbury and now of Tampa, FL, for the Center for Conflict Resolution.
Paul and Wanda Ferrier of Salisbury who made a significant gift in memory of the late Sam Seidel and the Seidel Scholarship Program.
The Rollins-Luetkemeyer Foundation of Baltimore whose gift will enhance the Ward Museum of Wildfowl Art and its operations.
Kathy Washburn Niskanen of Washington, D.C., and Princess Anne, MD, longtime friend and generous patron of the Edward H. Nabb Research Center for Delmarva History and Culture.
At the reception, donors were treated to jazz, classical and show music by a wind quintet from the SSO while University students benefiting from scholarships explained colorful displays of activities, ranging from school programs for children to international projects such as the CCR's redesign of the Croatian court system, historic material culture from the Nabb Center including an antique quilt from White Haven, MD, and championship carvings from the Ward Museum.
"It's especially exciting to see the community support these programs that are at the heart of the University's outreach mission," said Henry Hanna, chairman of the University's Predue-Kresge Challenge Campaign and chair of the SU Foundation Board.
"All of the programs with displays around this room benefit students. What makes them perfect for this partnership are the benefits they bring to the community."
SU Partnership Links Outreach, Scholarship: The Salisbury University Foundation has been awarded the chance to raise $800,000 that will be matched dollar-for-dollar to create $1.6 million for university outreach programs. The SU Foundation was named a partner in the Perdue Kresge Challenge for the Community, an endowment campaign sponsored by the Community Foundation of the Eastern Shore.
Salisbury University assembled the SU Foundation Endowment Partnership as the ideal response to the Perdue-Kresge Challenge for the Community: the Partner organizations are all firmly tied to Salisbury University's educational mission but each is primarily oriented to SU's goal of civic engagement. In other words, the Partners were selected because each serves the Lower Shore community, and the region, in a unique way.
Real estate developer Henry Hanna is a member of the SU Foundation board of directors and is chairing the Partnership Campaign. "The Perdue Kresge Challenge presents an excellent opportunity for Eastern Shore residents to double their charitable gifts. Each dollar contributed to the SU Foundation Endowment Partnership Campaign will be matched one-for-one by the Foundation," said Hanna. "It's exciting to participate in such a powerful fundraising program that benefits not only the University's outreach efforts, but also the Community Foundation of the Eastern Shore."
The SU Foundation Partners are:
The Center for Conflict Resolution, which was founded in 1992, and offers a low-cost, confidential approach to mediating conflicts. Center mediators have served public and private groups and individuals on the Delmarva Peninsula and beyond. Center staff and students have provided conflict resolution workshops at area schools. Salisbury architect Jim McDonald, board chair, is directing the drive.
The Salisbury Symphony Orchestra at Salisbury University presents concerts of classical and popular music throughout the region. The SSO recently received a $100,000 challenge gift from Dr. Peter Jackson and his wife Judy to expand symphony offerings. Les Simpson, a Salisbury accountant, and Dr. Jackson are co-directing the SSO campaign.
The Edward H. Nabb Research Center for Delmarva History and Culture may be best known for its popular genealogical programs and offers the largest collection of such records on the Eastern Shore. The Nabb Center preserves collections of local interest and provides access to valuable records to SU students and amateur and professional historians. Overseeing their effort is Board Chair Gordon Wood, a retired attorney from Oceanview, DE.
The Ward Museum of Wildfowl Art was acquired by the University last year. The Ward Museum hopes to expand its ties to the community with additional educational programs and exhibits. Leading the Ward Museum's efforts is insurance executive Henry Stansbury of Catonsville, MD.
The Seidel Scholarship Challenge for future teachers, launched in response to a generous gift from the late Sam Siedel and his wife, Marilyn, is the fifth component to the partnership. This effort is particularly important as SU responds to the regional and nationwide teacher shortage by increasing scholarships for students majoring in education. Joining Hanna in heading the Seidel Challenge is retired executive Wayne Towers, also an SU Foundation board member.

transcript:
For its next trick, a scorpion can do something else few animals can do: glow in ultraviolet light.
That's because of fluorescent chemicals in its body.
Why...nobody knows...but one theory is to attract insects that see in UV light...like a moth to a flame.
This moth is lured toward the glow.
Sensitive hairs on the scorpion's claws detect the flap of the moth's wings.
As the moth gets closer, vibrations intensify.
Hyper-sensitive body parts give this scorpion a powerful ground game.

Manfrotto has announced the Klyp, an iPhone case that allows the use of mini tripods and LED lighting panels. The company rather entertainingly talks in terms of turning the iPhone into 'a complete and professional camera,' but the ability to attach supports and lighting will undoubtedly be useful. The case allows accessories to be clipped-on at various points around the phone, allowing use in different orientations, and packages are available that include the company's compact LED light panels. The case, which fits the iPhone 4 and 4S, will retail for around £25, with lighting a tripod bundles also available. (via)
The new product consists of a special iPhone case equipped with two adaptor clips ready to host two of the most iconic products in the Manfrotto range for social recorders: POCKET tripods and LED lights.
With the launch of KLYP, Manfrotto further reinforces the connection between photography and mobile devices, allowing photographers to capture the moment wherever they are and whenever they want, as the greatest advantage offered by smartphones is that they are 'always on'.
A staggering 3,500 photos are uploaded to Facebook every second, equivalent to 300 million photos every day. A significant proportion of these are taken with the iPhone and now KLYP.
KLYP can help people improve the quality of the photos by optimizing light and sharpness of images.
KLYP will be available in-store from the 1st October in leading retailers including John Lewis, selected Selfridges, Calumet, Dixons Travel, Warehouse Express, Amazon and leading independent retailers and will come in five distinctive kits:
- case with two adaptor clips to enable use of supports and lights;
- case complete with ML240 LED light for videography, FaceTime and photography in low light;
- case complete with ML240 LED light and Manfrotto POCKET tripod for support out and about;
- case complete with compact ML120 LED light;
- case complete with ML120 LED light and Manfrotto POCKET tripod.
Prices for KLYPstart from £24.95.
The two removable "clips" can be attached to any of four different points around the case to allow both landscape and portrait images. This allows the Manfrotto LED light to be added in the optimum position to fill in shadows when shooting stills or video in low light conditions.
The KLYP case has been developed by Manfrotto with a unique rail system, which enables the case to remain sleek and have no protrusions to detract from its appearance whilst still allowing full access to all iPhone functions.
"With the launch of KLYP, Manfrotto takes its very first steps into a new industry, the one of mobile phone accessories, enriching the market with its unique heritage and expertise in the imaging field," comments Marco Pezzana, Manfrotto CEO.

Bengals to practice in Miami Valley
The Bengals will once again take training camp to Miami Valley fans, with a practice on Mon., Aug. 19 at Springboro High School. The session will begin at 5:30 p.m. and will be free and open to the public, with no passes required.
This practice comes after the Cincinnati portion of training camp, which concludes August 15.
"The Dayton area is very important to the Bengals," said Katie Blackburn, Bengals executive vice-president. "We have always had a strong number of season ticket holders and fans from the Miami Valley, and we'll need them again this year to sell out Paul Brown Stadium and make the Jungle loud for our players. We are very pleased to offer Valley fans a convenient opportunity to watch the team up close as it prepares for the season."
Prior the practice, head coach Marvin Lewis and selected players will meet with the Springboro High varsity football team.
"We like the opportunity to change things up, so meeting with the local high school team, then practicing in a first-class facility in front of our fans in the Dayton area, will make for a terrific day of training camp," Lewis said. "We are working hard in Cincinnati and look to finish the public portion of training camp on Aug. 19 in Springboro."
The decision to come to Springboro High originated with a letter of invitation from area State Senator Shannon Jones, who represents parts of Hamilton County and the southern part of the Miami Valley, including Springboro.
Senator Jones, a season ticket holder herself, wanted to give fans in her district and region the chance to see the Bengals in person.
"After seeing the great success of prior team practices in the Dayton area and sensing a lot of enthusiasm for the coming season, it seemed like the perfect time for the Bengals to come back," said Senator Jones. "And Springboro's new facility will accommodate the Bengals football needs very well."
The Bengals last practiced in the Miami Valley in 2010, when an overflow August crowd filled Welcome Stadium in Dayton.

Hello everyone!
Recently I had installed Backtrack 3 using VMware Workstation. And I have wireless USB adapter WG111v2 Realtek RTL-8187L chipset and I can't get it to work. I have looked like a million posts and web pages about this, but I couldn't find a good tutorial or explanation how to get this USB adapter to work in Backtrack 3. When I plug the adapter the Backtrack detects it, but when I try to configure, it gives me a choise from 5 or 6 drivers and when I choose one of them an error pops out - cannot start wpa_supplicant. And then it seems like the USB adapter is woorkin, but in is not detecting any wireless networks /and that is impossible, because my router is like 2 meters from my laptop/.
Also I have tried to install this diver - Realtek RTL8187L Wireless Driver 1.10 Linux Kernel 2.6. But it seems it's not possible, because I am using a virtual machine and it can't create/find the folders which are required to install the driver. That is how I understand all the errors when I was trying to insall it.
If someone have managed to get this to work please... please tell me how? Or if there is a post or a tutorial that I didn't found please let me know.
Thank you in advance!
P.S. Sorry for the bad English

Prominent Congressmen Dumped BP Stock After Oil Spill
June 15, 2011 | High-ranking congressmen made a concerted effort to financially distance themselves from BP in the aftermath of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, either by reducing or altogether dumping their stock holdings, according to a Center for Responsive Politics analysis of lawmakers' personal financial disclosure documents released Tuesday.
News Companies Popular Investments Among Congressmen
June 15, 2011 | Many members of Congress have a vested interest -- beyond just their political careers -- in the performance of the same organizations that are supposed to be their watchdogs, a Center for Responsive Politics investigation indicates.
Money and Votes Aligned in Congress's Last Debate Over Bank Regulation
September 23, 2008 | The last time Congress seriously debated how to regulate the financial industry, the result was legislation that allowed the nation's largest banks to get even larger and take risks that had been prohibited since the Great Depression. A look back at that debate, which was over the 1999 Financial Services Modernization Act, reveals that campaign contributions may have influenced the votes of politicians who, a decade later, are now grappling with the implosion of the giant banks they helped to foster.
Determining a Lawmaker's Worth
May 20, 2008 | Watchdogs and journalists are finding it difficult to determine just how much members of Congress are worth because they report their personal investments in wide ranges.
Strategic Assets
April 3, 2008 | From aircraft and weapons manufacturers to producers of medical supplies and soft drinks, the investment portfolios of more than a quarter of Congress—and of countless constituents—include holdings in companies paid billions of dollars each month to support America's military in Iraq and elsewhere.
