An advertising executive released a collection of breezy stories about Israeli inventors and their scientific breakthroughs.
In the real Mad Men universe of advertising, Marcella Rosen was a beacon of reason and leadership as the director of media worldwide and executive vice president of the legendary agency NW Ayer Inc., which was founded in Philadelphia by Francis Wayland Ayer in 1859. The New Yorker also founded her own agency.
However, as an avid supporter of Israel, she wanted to use her media clout and her skills of persuasion, as well as a team of astute writers and researchers, to draw attention to a side of Israel unknown to many Americans — that of a technological and scientific powerhouse.
Like all great innovators, she started small to test the waters, with the March 2010 launch of UntoldNews.org. This ambitious and user-friendly site reports on all things Israel beyond the ongoing Middle East peace process and political strife.
"Most of the media about Israel is negative, and what the average American knows about Israel comes from the coverage of the military activity and the religious issues," says Rosen.
"I thought it was a shame that the general public had little idea about Israeli scientific ventures that have improved their lives, or their humanitarian acts such as sending aid to 55 countries when needed."
She continues: "It is vital that if we want to maintain public support for Israel's future and its relationship with the United States that we tell the public about some of Israel's positives which are there — and phenomenal at that." How to counter a bad image? "While our enemies do a superb job of maligning us and Israel," she notes, "there needed to be something that effectively and proactively gives positive coverage."
Beyond UntoldNews.org, the savvy Rosen has also initiated an aggressive Facebook campaign that posts Monday to Friday, 52 weeks a year, on inventions and scientific breakthroughs coming out of Israel.
However, given that many of these inventions touch people on a monumental, worldwide basis — from the humble computer flash drive to the removal of breast tumors through freezing to the desalination of ocean water — she needed a way to propel word of mouth without saying too much of a mouthful for those who may be less scientifically inclined.
The solution: Tiny Dynamo: How One of the World's Smallest Countries Is Producing Some of Our Most Important Inventions is a nifty invention in itself. The slender, eye-catching volume is packed with 21 breezy stories about different inventions and the behind-the-scenes stories of some of the inventors.
However, when putting the book together, Rosen was savvy enough to know that she didn't want Jewish and non-Jewish readers to judge the book by its cover.
"You'll notice the front cover very deliberately does not mention 'Israel' though the back cover does," Rosen points out.
"As 'Israel' is a hot-button word for some, I wanted to be sure anybody interested in the scientific elements of the book would look at it for the science. Also, we deliberately composed the text to be an easy read. The intent is not to show how scientific we are but to get the information out there by translating complicated scientific scenarios into clear statements about the inventions' impact."
One thing that deeply concerns Rosen is keeping younger generations of Jews interested and vested in Israel's future. On one level, she thinks of the book as an opportunity to provide Jewish Americans with a set of tools that will enable them to win any debate set forth by an Israeli detractor by calling attention to all of the inventions that have or could benefit mankind as a whole.
"I have a grandson who had a Bar Mitzvah this year, and he read the book, of course, because I am his Grandma," she muses. "While he agreed it was a wonderful Bar Mitzvah gift," he saw its potential elsewhere as well.
Grandma agreed: "We could see this easily being used in classrooms. It can also be a useful tool for those who are pro-Israel who may find themselves in a debate with somebody not pro-Israeli."
As new scientific developments in Israel surface every day, Rosen also foresees subsequent books and reprints in other languages.
"My target right now is the U.S., which is a big test market," she says. "We have many more inventions coming out of Israel that would fill many more books."
Rosen stresses that although many Western countries have scientific breakthroughs and inventions they can be proud of, in recent years Israel has had as many inventions as all of Europe combined.
The timeline in the back of the book lists a whopping 68 important inventions since 1948.
The author notes she has a fondness for the airport security invention detailed in the book that uses psychology and body function to weed out potential terrorists.

WATCH: Morrissey knocked to ground by stage crasher
Listen to Morrissey on iHeartRadio
Morrissey is presumably right side up again after getting knocked down by a fan on stage in San Jose Wednesday night.
The former Smiths frontman was in mid-song when a group of fans broke through security to hug the singer. Amateur video of the incident shows one overzealous fan rushing the stage and knocking Morrissey to the ground. Security is seen swooping as Morrissey's band stops play.
The British singer seemed to welcome the random hugs before he was knocked over. It's not known if he was injured or if anyone was arrested.
Morrissey is out promoting his upcoming album World Peace Is None Of Your Business. The set is due out in July.

Jason Wu Fall 2011
Jason Wu's runway, composed of fragments of antique mirror set in gilded frames, suggested the Hall of Mirrors at Versailles after the angry mob of 1789 ransacked it. Wu was inspired by photographer Robert Polidori's magisterial documents of the renovation of the French royal palace, many of which reveal the raw infrastructure beneath the exuberant embellishments. In Wu's conservative hands, this starting point was never going to lead to Kawakubian moments of radical deconstruction, but instead to a subtle play on the marriage of le grand sport and le grand luxe.
Thus, sweatshirts and parkas were trimmed with bands of appliqué black lace (all fifteen of the laces were specially developed in Paris with Sophie Hallette) while a fragment of golden rococo embroidery spilled over a Schiaparelli pink chiffon evening gown. Lace and organdy piecrust collars and primly pleated knee-length skirts suggested Lady Di's debutante years, and the eighties motif blossomed in Lacroix puffball skirts in vivid jewel-toned duchess satin. Pastel crystal embroidery evoked Tord Boontje's magical chandeliers, and spike heels were encased in golden sunbursts—homage to Louis XIV, that glorious Roi Soleil.

PDF: Complaint filed by RGNC
REDLANDS - The Redlands Good Neighbor Coalition (RGNC) HAS filed a lawsuit against the city for its Oct. 16 approval of the Redlands Crossing Project, which includes a Walmart supercenter.
In the complaint, filed Nov. 15, the organization alleges that the City Council approved the project and its environmental impact report without adequately identifying the adverse impact the project could have on the environment within city limits.
The complaint is asking that the court to void the council's approval of the project.
Walmart is also named in the lawsuit.
A court date has not yet been set to discuss the matter, said Anthony N. Kim, an associate with Briggs Law Corp. who is representing the RGNC.
The city is responding to the complaint, said Carl Baker, public information officer for the city.
He was unable to comment on the specifics of that response.
The Redlands Crossing Project, a 256,614-square foot retail and commercial center that is scheduled to be built on 33 acres of land at San Bernardino Avenue and Tennessee Street near Citrus Valley High School and anchored by a Walmart supercenter, was approved by a 4-1 council vote.
Mayor Pete Aguilar voted against it.
The approval had a few contingencies, to which Walmart had agreed. They included the modification of store hours from a 24-hour/7-day a week schedule to one that is consistent with local business hours and open no later than midnight.
Walmart officials also agreed to meet with a subcommittee within 30 days of the project's approval to make the project more Redlands-centric.
Mayor Pro Tem Paul Foster and Councilman Jon Harrison would make up the subcommittee, per the agreement.
Walmart also donated $50,000 toward the city's Orange Blossom Trail Project.
At the time of the approval, Aguilar said the project did not fit with the vision of the city and that planners did not fully address traffic issues.
He also expressed concerns of the store's ability to find a tenant to fill the current site on Redlands Boulevard because once the supercenter is built, all store operations will be transferred to the new site.
"I don't feel it is in the best interest of the city to take Walmart on their word that they are going to backfill the facility," he said at the Oct. 16 meeting. "And I don't believe the language was firm enough to require that they fill the facility before they move to the new facility."
Since discussion of the project began, residents have expressed their concerns over the new project, citing traffic concerns near the proposed site, especially near CVHS, a possible increase in crime, and the addition of blight to the city.
Walmart officials have said from the start that they had plans to find an occupant prior to the move.
At the Oct. 16 meeting, Aaron Rios, a Walmart spokesman, tried to ease concerns by commenting that if the building was not sold within 18 months of the supercenter's opening, the city could purchase it for city-related services.
If not sold within 60 months, Walmart will demolish the building, but Rios said the corporation prefers not to do so.
"We treat our buildings as an asset," he said, adding that Walmart will be financially responsible for the current site on Redlands Boulevard until it is sold.
Proponents of the store have said that the new store will offer a variety of groceries and clothing items at low cost, compared to other retailers such as Target and Trader Joe's.
Convenience is another plus, they feel.
Many have commented that they have had to travel outside the city to accommodate their shopping needs and tax revenue generated from their purchases at other Walmart supercenter locations benefit other cities, such as Beaumont and Moreno Valley.
After the approval, several organizations including the RGNC spoke out against the store at a number of public hearings and forums, saying they were disappointed by the council's decision.
Keith Osajima, spokesman for and chairman of the organization, said the group had planned to meet shortly after the council's approval.
"The Redlands Good Neighbor Coalition does not see this as the end of the process, but views it as another obstacle, and our group is committed to exploring ways to stop the project," he added.

World-renowned sitarist and composer Ravi Shankar lives just down the coast, south from Long Beach.
He'll be in town on Sunday for a concert appearance at 7:30 p.m. at the Terrace Theater.
Shankar was scheduled to perform in March, but was hospitalized for two months because of a heart attack. (Fans who had tickets for that performance will have their ticket(s) honored at Sunday's show.)
These days, Shankar - considered a world citizen - is enjoying life in Encinitas, the quiet and cozy beach town north of San Diego.
"I love it so much," he said this week in a telephone interview, adding that he's lived there almost 20 years. "I'm lucky to have a beautiful home."
At age 92, Shankar continues to compose music.
"All the time," he said, adding that he will play some of his new compositions at the Terrace Theater.
He will be playing with his daughter, Anoushka Shankar, who is considered one of the leading figures in world music today. She is deeply rooted in Indian classical music, having studied exclusively with her legendary father from the age of nine. She's now 31.
"She's very special," the proud father said. "It's a thrill for me to perform with her."
Shankar said that he enjoys the visits of friends to his Encinitas home, but he said he misses his late friend (and former Beatle) George Harrison, who was greatly influenced by the sitarist.
Harrison, who died in 2001, once described Shankar as "the godfather of world music."
The sitar, distinguished by its long hollow neck, has a distinct twangy sound. Harrison met Shankar in London in 1966 and visited India for six weeks to study the instrument under Shankar.
During the visit, a documentary film about Shankar named "Raga" was shot, and released in 1971.
Shankar's association with Harrison greatly increased Shankar's popularity. In 1967, he performed at the Monterey Pop Festival and won a Grammy Award for Best Chamber Music Performance for "West Meets East."
The same year, the Beatles won the Grammy Award for Album of the Year for "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" which included "Within You Without You" by Harrison, a song that was influenced by Indian classical music.
"He was like my son, my friend," Shankar said of Harrison. "I miss him very much."
Shankar has performed for the public since the age of 10, originally as a dancer. He switched to playing the sitar at 19.
"It was very difficult, very difficult," he recalled.
But he's made his mark on the world of music.
In 2010, Shankar received an honorary Doctor of Laws from the University of Melbourne, Australia.
When playing and composing, Shankar said his introspective periods enhance his music.
"To me, music comes from a vision inside, an inner spiritual state," he said.
Sunday's performance is a promotion of the Ravi Shankar Foundation, which was established in 1997 to collect, document and archive the vast works of Shankar. It also serves as a resource center for researching classical Indian music and archiving the works of other masters. The organization, www.ravishankar.org, will use funds to build facilities such as libraries and art galleries that provide a forum for collaboration with other art institutions.
Ticket prices for Sunday's show range from $35-$70. To charge by phone, call Ticketmaster at 800-745-3000 or visit www.ticketmaster.com. Tickets are also available at the Long Beach Performing Arts Center main box office at 300 E. Ocean Blvd., which is open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. weekdays and noon to 4 p.m. Saturday.

An Australian man who avoided the death penalty for a second time after a Malaysian court rejected an appeal against his earlier acquittal on drugs charges says he feels totally vindicated and always knew the truth would come out.
Dominic Bird, from Perth, was arrested in March 2012 at a cafe near his apartment in Kuala Lumpur and accused of trying to supply an undercover police officer with 167 grams of methamphetamine - an amount that carries a mandatory death sentence in Malaysia.
He was acquitted after the case fell apart amid allegations of corruption on the part of the prosecution's star witness - Inspector Luther Nurjib, who has since been accused of drug trafficking - and was set free in September 2013.
Mr Bird, now 34, was re-arrested days later as he prepared to board a flight back to Australia following an 11th-hour appeal by prosecutors.
But the Malaysian Court of Appeal in Putrajaya on Wednesday rejected the prosecution's bid to have the trial judge's original decision overturned, with Mr Bird again set free, and effectively beating the death penalty for a second time.
Mr Bird said outside the court that it was a huge relief that his ordeal of more than two years was finally over, and that he now looked forward to getting on with his life.
"We had a strong case from the start. I never had any doubt whatsoever. I can finally say it ... but I didn't have a single grain of doubt," he said.
"There's no point in looking over your shoulder after something like this, you've got to look forward and just appreciate things a little bit more I suppose, appreciating freedom, appreciating family and appreciating Australia and what they've done for me as a country."
Prosecutor Awang Armadajaya told AAP he would consult with his superiors at the Attorney-General's office about whether or not to pursue the matter further.
The prosecution has 14 days to appeal, and Mr Awang said he may seek an injunction to prevent Mr Bird from leaving Malaysia while the Attorney-General's office considers its options.
Mr Bird vowed to return to Malaysia even if he was allowed to go home and an appeal was launched.
"Even though Australia won't extradite me due to their (opposition to) the death penalty, I will actually come back and face the music, and confidently as I have been throughout this whole procedure," he said.
He has always maintained his innocence, and said he felt vindicated by the appeal court's decision.
"A man wanted to see me hang," he said.
"But at the end of the day the truth came out and that's why I'm standing here in front of you right now as a free man."
In a unanimous decision, the panel of three judges ruled that the trial judge had not erred in throwing out the testimony of Insp Luther, who last year was found guilty of contempt of court after it emerged he had threatened and attempted to bribe a witness in the case.
It has also been alleged that it was Insp Luther who took the drugs to the Old Town White Coffee as part of a plan to frame Mr Bird.
Justice Aziah Ali said that it was clear from the High Court judge's earlier ruling that he had found Insp Luther to be completely unreliable as a witness.
"That's the difficulty for you because your witness on whose evidence the case of the prosecution lies has been found to be not credible - a liar," Justice Aziah said in addressing the prosecutor.
Lawyers for Mr Bird immediately set about trying to secure his passport, and said plans would be made as soon as possible to book a flight back to Perth.

Once it's downloaded, press <Ctrl>+<Alt>+<Backspace> to kill your X session.
Now type the following on the command line (Press the TAB key at <tab> for tab completion):
And hit the <Enter> key. Run through the installer.cd
sh NV<tab>
Now run:
Now, when you're back in the BT GUI, click the KDE Menu (little dragon, bottom left-hand side of the screen) and you will find Nvidia X Server Settings under the System menu.apt-get install nvidia-settings
You're done, and X is configured to like your card!

Teams build robots from the parts and enter them in competition.
Feb. 19 marks the end of the six weeks. The Feb. 16 scrimmage at Mines will allow area teams to practice before the 2008 FIRST Colorado Regional competition March 27-29 at the University of Denver. The 2008 Championship will take place April 17-19 at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta.
Once the scrimmage starts, trained officials will inspect the robots and judge the competition. The Jefferson County Sheriff's bomb diffusion department is scheduled make an appearance and robot demonstration.
Mines students and faculty, especially those from the Mines Robotics Club, will be on hand to help with electrical, mechanical and programming problems the teams might face. The event is hosted by Mines students who are receiving Engineering Practices Introductory Course Sequence (EPICS) credit. The program was implemented in 2007 by the Robotics Club to secure a steady flow of mentors and resources to the FIRST community.
Doors for the scrimmage will open at 7 a.m. to give teams time to set up stations and get ready for the competition. Matches will run until 3 p.m. with a break for lunch at noon.

See this thread locutus..
Hi! I'm a Newbie (with a bad English...)
I'm trying to crack a test wi-fi network...
I set up a wi-fi network (ad hoc) witk a 5 char wep key.
I started BackTrack and typed this on my bash:
airmon-ng start NIC
airodump-nw --write capt.cap NIC and in the same time
airplay-ng -3 -e (essid) -b mac -h mac_pc NIC
now I have a problem because after 6 hours I have only 13000 IVs...
Can someone help me?
The actual chipset number would help too, as some of the newer atheros chipsets do not yet have a fully functioning driver available.
My wi-fi card is an Artheos AR5005G (wireless network adapter), but I think I have no problem with this nic...
Have you done an injection test yet.
Are those the entire set of commands you used, as there is no fakeauth or no deauth of any connected clients.
No... those are the entire set of commands I've used...
I'didn't use the others because the wi-fi network is not mac address based (and I can't change my mac address) ....
The network is made only by two computer with 2 Wireless card (and another to testing the secutity...)
In the first pc I have a shared internet connection (I'm connecting to internet by ADSL cable) and in the other pc I'm trying to surf and download on the internet (and it works...) by wi-fi network.
airmon-ng start wifi0
aireplay-ng -1 6000 -q 1 -o 1 -e hello -b WirelessAP -h facMac ath1

aireplay-ng -2 -r arp-request
this should generate enough IVs
this gave me like 300 + per/sec
A lot of thanks...
I can't try now, but I will try on Monday!
Have a good night

Healthy Carolina Farmers Market sets fall dates
Launched nearly one year ago, the Healthy Carolina Farmers Market has become a mainstay of campus green living at the University of South Carolina and an equally popular offering among Columbia residents and South Carolina farmers.
The market will resume this fall from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. on the following Tuesdays: Sept. 1, 15 and 29; Oct. 13; and Nov. 10. It will be located between the gates on Greene Street in front of the Russell House University Union on all dates except Oct. 13, when the market will be held on Davis Field, between Russell House and Thomas Cooper Library.
The Healthy Carolina Farmers Market will feature a bounty of fresh and locally produced late summer and fall vegetables, homemade breads and an array of specialty and handmade items. Products, which are cash and carry, are competitively priced and sold individually and in bulk.
Launched last September, the Healthy Carolina Farmers Market is part of the university's Healthy Carolina Initiative, which aims to simplify healthy choices. The university has teamed with the S.C. Department of Agriculture to offer the monthly markets.
The market is one of many green initiatives recently launched by the university that contributed to the university earning a top "green" rating by the Princeton Review in late July. The university scored 95 out of a possible 99, placing the university ahead of all public colleges in South Carolina and second among all universities in the Southeastern Conference. The University of Florida earned a rating of 97.

Same Wine Bottle, Four Different Prices
Château Margaux 1983: At Gold restaurant, it costs 10,000 Hong Kong dollars (about US$1,285). At Caprice, the same wine goes for almost twice as much—HK$19,500. L'Atélier de Joël Robuchon has it on its wine list for HK$14,000. At Cépage, the same wine, same vintage, is HK$10,610.
What's behind the different prices?

During the mid-20th century, architects often jettisoned masonry construction, passive climate control, daylighting, and traditional building materials in favor of deep floor plans, curtainwall exteriors, HVAC systems, artificial lighting, and new materials. These changes provided unprecedented design freedom, immediate cost savings, and more thorough environmental controls, but they also vastly increased a building's energy demands, neglected life-cycle costs, incorporated materials prone to obsolescence, and introduced indoor health hazards.
Over the last decade, the General Services Administration (GSA), which owns a vast inventory of midcentury structures and is subject to both federal preservation and sustainability standards, has addressed these concerns. The agency's work will be the subject of "Managing Modern: Balancing Performance and History in an Era of Sustainability," a session at May's AIA National Convention in Washington, D.C. The Saturday-afternoon session will address the GSA's flexible approach to rehabilitation, with a particular focus on maximizing the capacity of its broad building inventory and gaining the LEED Gold status that is now standard for federal construction.
The '50s and '60s also saw a building boom, and today, as the large stock of structures from that boom ages, it is clear that the buildings share particular sustainability and preservation problems. New York's iconic Seagram Building is a textbook example of midcentury architecture's preservation challenge, but other structures, such as single-family homes, face similar issues at a smaller scale. Adapting one of these historic structures to new uses prolongs its life and capitalizes on an existing energy investment. This is good news for modern buildings that have flexible and open floor plans (including the Seagram Building or others like it). More-sculptural examples of Modernism that are less adaptable can face abandonment or demolition if their designed purpose changes.
The buildings of the midcentury depend upon a host of innovative technologies, such as exterior cladding systems. Curtainwalls of the period were often constructed of a steel subframe (with glazing and new types of thin panel cladding), which have corroded, proven insufficiently fire-resistant, and frequently lack adequate thermal breaks.
Historic glazing systems are also prone to failure and often less efficient than current panels. Some thin stone, metal, and precast concrete panels have experienced particular patterns of failure, often due to unanticipated interactions between elements within the overall system. Plus, masterpieces of Modern architecture are not always paragons of air quality—a condition exacerbated by all those sealed curtainwalls and aging HVAC systems.
When off-the-shelf parts or systems fail, they are easily replaced. But when proprietary materials or elements are involved, it raises hard questions for historic preservation and restoration. That one-of-a-kind illuminated ceiling system? It survived the first 40 years of service life just fine, but as it systematically begins to fail, it proves impossible to get replacement parts—forcing total replacement of the system, disposal of useful material, and loss of historic fabric.
"The GSA has taken the lead on greening historic buildings—a real commitment. Recognizing that different strategies are appropriate for different kinds of buildings is incredibly thoughtful," says Jean Carroon, FAIA, principal at Boston's Goody Clancy and chair of the AIA Historic Resources Committee, which is co-sponsoring the session. "They have a very good system of evaluating the contributing features of each of the buildings in their portfolio, and the GSA is an international model for the stewardship of buildings of all periods."

Simulation Experiments (Part 3)
It's time to continue my short series on simulation experiments. In Part 1 and Part 2 I discussed the basics of simulation experiments and general features of Experiment Manager, the SystemVision application for simplifying, executing, and managing simulation experiments. In this post I'll use a simple motor driver example to illustrate the basics of Experiment Manager operation. Here is the circuit:
Setting up and running an experiment requires two types of system information: a list of parameters whose values can change during the experiment, and one or more saved measurements to execute for each experiment run. For my motor drive system, I want to look at two performance metrics related to the position of the motor shaft: risetime for the shaft to move to its final position, and the maximum of the shaft's position. For system parameters, I will focus on parameters in the motor including the winding resistance, winding inductance, torque constant, damping coefficient, and moment of inertia.
Too determine how much effect each motor parameter has on my measurements, I ran a simple sensitivity analysis. Based on my analysis setup, the risetime is most affected by the motor's winding resistance and damping coefficient, and the damping coefficient has the largest effect on the shaft's final position. So I setup my experiment to adjust values for the winding resistance and damping coefficient while measuring risetime and position.
Experiment Manager's GUI-driven integration with Microsoft Excel allows me to quickly setup the experiment spreadsheet. The spreadsheet contains a single column for each parameter and measurement in my experiment. Once defined, here is what the spreadsheet looks like:
With the parameter and measurement columns defined, each row in the spreadsheet becomes an individual experiment. I define the values in the parameter columns, and SystemVision fills in the measurement columns with calculated information from the experiment. Here is what my spreadsheet looks like after running a series of experiments:
Note the cell shading in the measurement columns. Experiment Manager allows me to set minimum and maximum limits for measurements, and then flags the measured data by coloring the cell based on whether the measurement is within, or outside of, measurement limits (e.g. in the above example, green indicates a passed measurment, oranage a failed measurement). Now I have two sets of complimentary data: waveforms in SystemVision which I can further analyze graphically, and numeric data in Excel that I can analyze using spreadsheet functions.
System experiments are an essential part of designing and verifying a mechatronic system design. But setting up experiments often requires significant time, particularly if it's a manual process. Tools like Experiment Manager speed the experiment definition process and help design teams automate experiment setup and execution to make design flows more efficient and improve system quality.

And, in the coming year, we are about to observe the 100th anniversary of the First World War.
You will observe that the luster of his high ideals was already dimming.

Yoshimoto, Banana. Goodbye, Tsugumi
Maria Shirakawa has spent her childhood waiting, along with her mother, for her father to obtain a divorce from his first wife. Mother and daughter spent those years living in the seaside inn of Maria's aunt and uncle, only seeing Maria's father on the few occasions he was able to get away from his life in the city to visit. Maria grew up alongside her cousin Tsugumi, a young woman with a frail and sickly body but a vibrant and almost malicious spirit. Freed from common behavioral norms by the deep conviction that she could die at any moment, Tsugumi is rude, loud-mouthed, spoiled, and too clever by half. She can also be enchanting and mischievous when the mood strikes her. Maria is always torn between annoyance and admiration for her cousin, who is free to flirt with boys and concoct elaborate pranks and revenge schemes with an ease Maria—who is bound by a determination to be the perfect daughter for her distant father—can only admire and resent by turns. When Maria and her mother are finally able to join Maria's father in the city and become a true family, she finds that she misses Tsugumi bitterly. When Maria's aunt and uncle determine to sell the inn and move to another town, Maria heads back to spend one last summer with her infuriating and enchanting cousin.
Deliberately paced, with very little emphasis on plot, Goodbye, Tsugumi is a delicate character study. Some awkwardness in sentence structure can perhaps be blamed on the translation from Japanese. For those readers who enjoy quiet, lyrical works and are willing to forego action for insight.


text: These cakes have no wrappers but come individually sealed. The cakes are in good shape and have no off taste. A very smooth and full mouthed cup. When brewed very strong (10g) some really magical flavors appear. This tea steeps at least 10 times and the taste changes with each cup. The large leaves of these cakes are processed in the old method of slow oxidation. The leaves are deep brown when steeped with a deep rich earth smell only years can create. A drinkable antique. Hong Tai Chang Factory made in China. A worthy addition for an affordable historical perspective (and taste) of Pu-erh tea.

The output in the aircrack-ng shows all the packets from the capture file, but i cannot view the top of this output, only the last 150 lines.
I need to veiw the top, to find the target network with the most IV's
any help?
thanks for your reply.
I asked on aircrack for windows and got this in case anyone has the same problem.
IMPORTANT Information Regarding Windows Version IMPORTANT
The windows version requires you to develop your own DLLs to link aircrack-ng to your wireless card. The required DLLs are not provided in the download nor available anywhere on the Internet.

Miguel leg drops fan at Billboard Awards
Listen to Miguel on iHeartRadio
(TMZ) - Miguel was TRYING to jump from the stage to a platform, but he missed ... and instead, a fan got ROCKED with a BRUTAL (yet accidental) LEG DROP TO THE FACE!!!!!
It all went down during M's performance at the Billboard Music Awards last night when the singer was performing his hit, "Adorn" ... which, minus the face-bashing, was pretty damn good.
PHOTOS: Billboard Music Awards 2013
After the performance, Miguel met with the fan backstage and tweeted about the leg drop -- "Got caught up in the moment, thank goodness Khyati is okay."
Meanwhile, here's what a REAL leg drop looks like ...

When you get a phone bill, read it. To make sense of what some of the charges are on both landline and wireless bills, the Federal Communications Commission offers a Guide to Understanding Your Telephone Bill. Verify any third-party billing charges that may appear, and look out for signs of slamming and cramming - which are illegal in Oregon.
Third party billing. Since the deregulation of the telecommunications industry there has been a growth in complaints regarding erroneous charges on telephone bills. This is because your phone company can act as a "third party service biller" meaning that other companies or organizations can request payment from you by adding a charge to your telephone bill.
Third party billing has changed many things. For example, in the aftermath of a natural disaster, relief organizations are able to raise millions of dollars almost instantly by collecting thousands of small donations from consumers via text messaging. However some companies abuse this new method of collecting payment because phone companies are not required to verify the legitimacy of the requested charge.
Cramming. The placement of charges on your phone bill for services you never requested, authorized, or received is called "cramming". These charges may range from as little as $1.99 to as much as $19.99 per month. Crammers count on you not reading your bill carefully, so you never notice the few dollars they take from you each month.
How can you protect yourself from cramming?
Slamming occurs when your local or long-distance service is switched to another company without your authorization.
If you have been the victim of slamming:
To stop unauthorized telemarketing calls, put your number on the National Do Not Call Registry. If you receive unauthorized marketing calls after that, please Report a Violation of the Do Not Call List.

Bradley Manning Now 'Catatonic'; Obama ENOUGH!
The irony of this situation continuing with silent acquiescence from the Commander-in-Chief, in light of his "White House Conference on Bullying Prevention" today and launch of his new website, stopbullying.gov, is truly stunning... Stop Bullying, Gov, indeed.
Please see related note at the end of this article just sent by Voters For Peace.
– Ed.
March 7, 2011
As Obama's crime of the destruction of Bradley Manning continues to unfold before our very eyes, Manning friend David House now tells us that over 8 months in isolation with movement and sleep restrictions placed on him have been having their intended effect. House has told MSNBC that by the end of January Manning appeared "catatonic" and that he had "severe problems communicating," with it having taken House nearly 45 minutes on a recent visit to engage in any meaningful way (video below.) House said Manning's demeanor was as "if he had just woken up and didn't know what was going on around him." Manning was "utterly exhausted physically and mentally...it was difficult to have any kind of social engagement."
Also, a full month after Congressman Dennis Kucinich formally requested a visit, the Army has stalled on the request.
All for the crime of reporting war crimes and criminal behavior even among the highest-ranking military officials in Iraq.
In 2005, General Peter Pace, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said: "It is absolutely the responsibility of every U.S. service member [in Iraq], if they see inhumane treatment being conducted, to try to stop it."
Chase Mader writes in HuffPo that soon after deployment to Iraq, Manning:
"soon found himself helping the Iraqi authorities detain civilians for distributing "anti-Iraqi literature" -- which turned out to be an investigative report into financial corruption in their own government entitled "Where does the money go?" The penalty for this "crime" in Iraq was not a slap on the wrist. Imprisonment and torture, as well as systematic abuse of prisoners, are widespread in the new Iraq. From the military's own Sigacts (Significant Actions) reports, we have a multitude of credible accounts of Iraqi police and soldiers shooting prisoners, beating them to death, pulling out fingernails or teeth, cutting off fingers, burning with acid, torturing with electric shocks or the use of suffocation, and various kinds of sexual abuse including sodomization with gun barrels and forcing prisoners to perform sexual acts on guards and each other...
Like any good soldier, Manning immediately took these concerns up the chain of command. And how did his superiors respond? His commanding officer told him to "shut up" and get back to rounding up more prisoners for the Iraqi Federal Police to treat however they cared to..."
Manning also found a video and an official report on American air strikes on the village of Granai in Afghanistan's Farah Province (also known as "the Granai massacre"). According to the Afghan government, 140 civilians, including women and a large number of children, died in those strikes.
War crimes? What war crimes? This is the point of view of the Pentagon as it destroys Bradley Manning.
On the Haditha killings (found to be "collateral damage" by the Army despite an American officer's unearthing and handing up the chain of command a video showing close up bullet wounds) a recent Counterpunch article by Medea Benjamin and Charles Davis recounts:
Massacres of civilians in retaliation for IEDs seems to have been standard fare in Iraq. Ethan McCord says his unit was ordered to engage in "360 rotational" fireand "kill every mother&* in the street" in the event of an IED. The officer who gave the order was Col. Ralph Kauzlarich, "the lost Kauz" who is featured in David Finkel's book "The Good Soldiers." Col. K is also the executive officer who led the first investigation into the death of Pat Tillman.
Josh Stieber, a McCord unit-mate who also witnessed the order, said the logic was to get residents to be "pro-active" in preventing the planting of roadside bombs. Brass knew that the people in the houses nearest probably saw it planted and didn't say anything.
Now nine Afghan children have been killed after what the Army says was mistaken identity after a nearby rocket attack on American forces. These boys could have been the boys some on this site got to know well in the New Year's Global Call for Peace (they weren't, but they were just as precious.)
Defense Secretary Robert Gates once said people like Bradley Manning have "blood on their hands" for releasing documents which might identify Afghan informants. But look down Robert, and don't flinch. They are dripping.
Commander-in-Chief Obama, order Bradley Manning released!

Complete Women's Soccer Release in pdf format

PRINCETON, N.J. -- With two more weeks
remaining in the women's soccer regular season, and two more
Ivy games remaining for each of Ancient Eight, the race for the
League title and the automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament is coming
down to the wire.
Princeton (10-3-1, 5-0-0 Ivy) is still in first-place after a 3-1 win over last year's champion, Harvard (7-4-3, 2-2-1 Ivy). All four goals were scored in the second half. The loss ended the Crimson's six-game winning streak, as well as Harvard's two-game winning streak against Princeton. The Tigers have won eight in a row, the program's longest streak since 2004, which is also the last time the team started 5-0 in Ivy play. That 2004 team went undefeated in conference action.
The Crimson's loss means the title race comes down to three teams: Princeton, Dartmouth and Penn. The Big Green (11-4-0, 4-1-0 Ivy) used a goal from sophomore Tasha Wilkins in the 66th minute to upend Columbia (6-8-0, 2-3-0 Ivy), 1-0, while Penn (8-5-1, 4-1-0 Ivy) kept pace with Dartmouth by defeating Yale, 2-0. After a Yale own goal gave the Quakers the early lead, junior Kathryn Barth put the game out of reach with a score in the 80th minute off an assist from sophomore Clara Midgley.
Princeton defeated Dartmouth, 2-1 on Sept. 29, and the Big Green held off Penn by that same score on Oct. 13. The Tigers and Quakers will square off in the final game of the season on Nov. 3.
In the other League contest last week, Brown ended a five-game losing streak with a 1-0 win over Cornell. Junior Louisa Pitney netted the gamewinner off assists from Mika Siegelman and Eliza Marshall in the 10th minute, and junior goalkeeper Amber Bledsoe preserved her first career shutout with three saves.
In non-conference action, Mai Le posted a goal and an assist to lead Harvard to a 4-0 win over Holy Cross, and Dartmouth posted a 2-1 win over Boston University thanks to a gamewinning score from sophomore Kendall Kraus.
This week's non-conference action features a battle of winning streaks, as Princeton (eight-straight wins) will take on La Salle (10-straight wins) on Monday. That same day, Yale will host Fairfield, and on Wednesday Harvard will host Brown for a non-conference game. In Ivy play, Yale will play Columbia, Penn will take on Penn, Cornell will host Princeton and Dartmouth will face Harvard.
Princeton kept itself at the lead of the pack with a 3-1 win over Harvard, eliminating the Crimson from Ivy championship consideration in the process. Tigers senior midfielder Rachel Sheehy (Exton, Pa.) was a key factor in her team's performance, assisting Princeton's first two goals, including the eventual gamewinner. Sheehy took a corner kick in the 61st minute that was headed in by senior Caitlin Blosser for a 1-0 Tigers lead. After Harvard tied the game in the 70th minute, Sheehy's free kick in the 80th minute found junior Gabriella Guzman, who sent it to the back of the net for the 2-1 lead.
Sheehy posted her first career multi-assist game, and now has a career-best five assists on the year. Sheehy takes home her first career Ivy League weekly award and the fourth for Princeton this season, joining senior Jen Hoy, who has earned the honor three times (Sept. 3, Sept. 24, Oct. 15). Sheehy is the first Princeton player not named Hoy to receive Player of the Week accolades since Blosser on Oct. 4, 2010.
Sheehy's Weekly Stats
1 GP, 2A, 2 Pts.
Needing a win to remain in the race for the Ivy League championship, Dartmouth was locked in a scoreless draw with Columbia through almost 66 minutes of action. Then, in the 66th minute, Big Green freshman Corey Delaney (Chatham, N.J.) took a shot that rebounded to sophomore Tasha Wilkins, who hammered sent the ball to the back of the net for the eventual gamewinner in a 1-0 Dartmouth victory. Delaney got credit for the assist, her team-leading fifth of the season.
Delaney becomes Dartmouth's first-ever three-time Ivy League Rookie of the Week (Sept. 17, Sept. 24). She is the first three-time recipient of the accolade since Penn's Kerry Scalora in 2010, and her award marks the first time Dartmouth received three Rookie of the Week honors in a single season since 1998, when Jamie Lang (Sept. 21, Nov. 2) and Lindsey Bergren (Sept. 28) were the honorees.

How to tell if a company is real or not? How to determine if

There are several methods you can use to determine whether a recruiter or employer is real, and acting in good faith.

b) Second, let's say you get an email from a so called Xaturnico Oil Company. The email comes from "Xaturnico" - "[email protected]
c) Third, let's assume you get an email fro Wakutty Oil. The email comes from "Wakutty Oil" - "[email protected]
d) In order to gain your trust, these scammers / fake companies might even say they need your medical information, previous employment status, and so forth. Do not disclose this information to anyone you do not know and whom you cannot check (either in person or by official ways).
e) There are other scenarios we have yet to hear of. Stay cautious! Email us if you hear of anything new, so we can put it here and benefit others.
f) You can also contact us and ask for a FREE analysis of the job offer / the company making the job offer.

Post subject: Detfan782004 Mock Draft/Offseason----35K
This mock is going to go a little farther in depth then previous ones. This will be about starting lineup mainly with some spots depth.
Stafford. He simply is not going to restructure and you keep restructuring the deal and the money keeps adding up later. Need to bite this contract as is.
Hill. Hill is signed through 2013. At a mere 2.4 mil and small bonus this is a bargain for a backup QB like Hill.
LeShoure. He is coming back. Showing great potential as a power RB IMO.
Bell. He is a RFA. Tender him at the 1.26 million amount.
Best. Love Best and his situation sucks. He is owed 850,000-875,000 for
next couple years. Some team may gamble on him so dump him for a 7th. Yes a 7th. Better then nothing.
Calvin. Calvin is Calvin. Locked in.
Broyles. Hope he comes back healthy.
Burleson. Owed nearly 5 mil per for next two years. With Titus crap going on and not knowing Broyles injury either he needs retained.
Mike Thomas. Owed 1.45 in 2013. 2014 is the year he is owed over 3. Keep him and see what he does with a full offseason with the team.
Young. Cut your losses. Someone will give a 7th.
Scheffler. Extend through 2015 season. Currently getting 1.55 and 1.95 next year. Give him around 2.25 for next 3 years.
Pettigrew. Will be a FA after 2013 season. Get value for him now. Trade him for a 5th.
Reiff. Move him into the LT spot next year.
Sims. Signed thru 2015. Keep him for now.
Raiola. Let him finish out last year but draft replacement.
Petterman. Signed thru 2013. Keep him look for replacement in draft and FA.
Cherilus. FA after this year. Let him walk. Slide Backus over to RT for his last year. Draft/FA backup and potential starter in 2014.
I have been saying for many weeks I think Suh could be a dominant end. Moving Suh to LE and let Avril walk.
Fairley. Showing why he was drafted highly.
Draft/FA his partner in crime.
KVB. Continuity is key and so many DL going with Avril, Williams, Jackson and so on KVB stays regardless of contract. Draft/FA his backup to groom and take over. Cut down his snaps.
Durant. Just like KVB continuity huge. With both OLB being FA retaining one is key. Levy will likely draw the bigger payday given age and such. Retain Durant.
Levy. Let him walk and draft/FA for new starter
Houston. Try to sign to longer deal. Currently on 3 mil deal. Think 5 per year at least for four to five years required. Franchise tag if you have to.
Draft/FA to compete with all the young talent for #2.
Delmas. As much as it pains me to say this let him walk. His name will get more money then production should.
FA/draft. This position is in need of a makeover all around
Hanson. Let him decide.
Harris----let this bum walk.
Free Agency
-- not going to sign a ton of guys here just a few i want
DT- Alan Branch- Sea. Currently at 3 mil per year.
CB- Sean Smith- Mia. In final year of rookie contract. His numbers not eye popping but he is solid.
WR/KR/PR- Cribbs. Currently earning about 1.4. Special teams does not scare any opponent.
TE/FB- Delanie Walker. I put him as a FB also because he is a great blocker. He can help in so many ways. Will be filling the extra blocker role that Reiff was doing this year.
S- Byrd. I would rather spend the money on Byrd then Delmas.
-- some guys will not last as long as projected or may go later. Hard to tell yet.
Round 1- CB- Milliner. I did not think Detroit would be in a position to get him. Still not 100 percent sure but going with it for now
Round 2- DE- Tank Carradine- FSU
Round 3- S- Rambo- Georgia
Round 5- (Original pick) OLB- A. Highsmith- Arkansas
Round 5- (Pett trade) RB- Barner- Oregon. May go higher on name but his skills this is where he should go.
Round 6- C- Schwartzstein- Stanford
Round 7- (Best trade)- WR- Keenan Davis- Iowa
Round 7- (Titus trade)- G- Foltz- TCU
QB- Stafford, Hill
RB- LeShoure, Bell, Barner
FB- Walker (TE)
WR- Calvin, Broyles
WR- Burleson, Thomas, Davis
TE- Scheffler, Walker
LT- Reiff
LG- Sims, Foltz
C- Raoila, Schwartzstein
RG- Petterman, Foltz
RT- Backus
LE- Suh
DT- Fairley
DT- Branch
DE- KVB, Carradine
OLB- Durant
MLB- Tulloch
OLB- Highsmith
CB- Houston (Milliner dime eases him into the league and not ruin him)
CB- Smith (Milliner dime eases him into the league and not ruin him)
S- Byrd
S- Rambo
KR/PR- Cribbs
Obviously depth lacking still in this one. Will continue to get more in depth as year goes on.
--Some people may knock revamping the entire secondary but I feel it is necessary in this league. Byrd, Rambo, Milliner, and Smith along with Houston will need time to click but will be good.
--Oline still needs work but couple prospects in there may pan out
--DL becomes a major force again with Suh at DE. Carradine in no rush to play a ton with KVB here. Eases him in as well. Branch is a big body next to Fairley to eat up double teams.
--Barner gives that change of pace back so many seek.
--WR has a ton of question marks but contracts are really going to force most to return as is there.

Id like to get Byrd. We'd probably need to pay some decent money to Smith and Im not so sure I would. I'm just not feeling the draft. I feel better can be had. I'm not buying into Milliner like some, its an ok pick but I don't see a top 7 player. Hes not really the issue its the rest of the draft. Just one of those that make you wonder what wass left when you made the pick.

You are entitled to your opinion but the prospects at CB, DE and S are some of best in game
