Release of pro-Syrian Generals Heightens Lebanese Political Tension
November 02, 2009 8:35 AM
The release of four pro-Syrian Lebanese generals, in custody since 2005 for suspicion of involvement in the slaying of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri, is stirring up a political tempest between the pro-Western parliamentary majority and the opposition Hezbollah, just over a month before the June 7 parliamentary elections.
The Hezbollah-led opposition in Lebanon is taking advantage of the decision by a United Nations-backed tribunal to release four senior generals, Wednesday, to score points ahead of the country's upcoming parliamentary elections.
The four former top generals, who were suspected of playing a part in the February, 2005 slaying of former Prime Minister Hariri, have been jailed for nearly four years.
The men were set free, Wednesday, to a tumultuous welcome by their supporters, following a decision by Belgian judge Daniel Fransen, who argued that they were, before any conviction, "presumed to be innocent."
UN special prosecutor Daniel Bellamare submitted a report, Monday, indicating that there was insufficient evidence to hold the men in custody, any longer.
The release of the men, however, is causing a political fury in Beirut, where the men, with the support of Hezbollah and its allies, have begun lambasting the government, as well as the Lebanese judiciary system, for "wrongfully arresting them."
Former UN prosecutor Detlev Mehlis, responsible for the original decision to arrest them, told the Arab daily Al Hayat that the men's release did not exonerate them, and that they may still be judged in the case.
The ruling pro-Western March 14th coalition came under a high-pitched attack from Hezbollah leaders, as well as the Hezbollah-run Al Manar TV.
Jamil Sayyed, one of the four generals released Wednesday, claims that his arrest was "politically motivated," and that he, along with Hezbollah, intend to use the release for political gain in the upcoming elections.
Both parliamentary majority leader Saad Hariri, son of the slain former prime minister, and Druze ally Walid Jumblatt noted that the UN decision to release the generals came without pressure from anyone, and that they would respect it.
Jumblatt, however, blasted Hezbollah for using the release for political capital and questioned whether more political assassinations were in the cards now that the men were free:
He says that the release of the generals was a sad spectacle, because they were symbols of the former Syrian tutelage over Lebanon, reminding us of the bad, old days. He asks if they are dreaming of coming to power, once again? We won't let that happens, he insists. What else do they want to do, he asks, silence the judiciary? Is there going to be a new wave of assassinations, under the pretext that there is no security in the country?
The ruling March 14th coalition accuses Syria of being behind the slaying of former Prime Minister Hariri, as well as a number of other top politicians and journalists, who were Syrian opponents. Damascus has steadfastly denied the charges.
Hilal Kashan, professor of political science at the American University of Beirut, thinks that the Hezbollah-led opposition scored a big victory with the general's release and could win the parliamentary elections because of it:
"The opposition is using the release of the 4 senior officers as a moral victory, and says for the past 3 years and 8 months, four officers were jailed for no reason, whatsoever and they are coming [down] hard on the Lebanese legal system and [in] the process the Lebanese government, and they say this is the beginning," said Khashan. "They see the release as the beginning of a new era in Lebanon and they expect the opposition, now, to win big in the forthcoming parliamentary elections."
Until now, both the ruling March 14 coalition and the Hezbollah-led opposition have been running neck in neck in opinion polls and analysts were expecting the results of parliamentary elections to be extremely close.

Giveaway :: thread & paper
I don't know about you, but my go to bag lately has been a large tote of sorts designed to hold as many things as possible at one time. My life just plain does not fit into a handbag anymore. My problem, however, is that I don't want to forsake style for function. Sure, I have needs but I also have wants. Don't we all? Luckily, here at the BSP, we have a few wonderful makers up our sleeve when we need something specific and today is no exception.

The Color Block totes are a particular favorite (it is bad to want one of every color?) but my heart really stopped when I saw the Leather Tote. Perfection. thread & paper is the new standard, friends.
thread & paper is giving away one Color Block Tote (in choice of color) to one lucky winner! To enter to win, please answer the following question no later than Wednesday, July 2nd.

My wallet, my phone and a diaper.
My purse says everything about me! I like to be ready to be totally alive in the world, and to remember who I am and the people I love. Currently in my purse there are: three books (you never know when you need to be inspired!), an apple and green beans (I always need to eat!!), a journal and pen (to record this world I love!), a small first aid kit, a pair of headphones, a seashell from my grandma's house in Maine (I love my people!), a special agate from my hometown in Montana (I'm a home-girl!), and – you know – my wallet (which is shaped like an owl.)

Keys, wallet, thumb drives, and lots of tupperware!

The unusual: tiny brass candlestick (made by me at Greenfield Village in Michigan), a list my husband wrote of his favorite things about me when we first started dating, book (The Year of Magical Thinking by Joan Didion), and fortune ("turn your scars into stars").
Sadly I'm carrying around a tax bill! But aside from that, my wallet, a fun Origins make-up bag from a friend full of my lotion, jasmine perfume and and lip balms. I've got a notepad and a good pen and some Dove chocolates. Oh! I have a new Starbucks gift card I received for my birthday floating around in there, yay!
My purse is a hot mess right now! Planner, receipts, 2 pacifiers, goldfish crackers, essential oils, wallet, granola bar, pens, chapstick… and other various odds and ends….
Beautiful bags! My purse has a makeup bag (Buddha Balm chapstick, 100% Pure mascara, Bare Minerals blush, eyelash curler), wallet, note pad and Cross pen, cheap sunglasses, ProBar, package of almonds, bottle of water.
my purse is a disaster. I have 3 little grandsons so there are diapers, wipes, pouches, binkies, my wallet and a bunch of hot wheels!
the basics would be my phone, wallet, an umbrella, a pen and tissue paper. i've started carrying a pair of sunglasses because it's been really sunny these days, and along with the arrival of the heatwave here i've started taking a small paper fan along to cool down; it looks much classier than fanning myself with random pamphlets i get. more importantly i've started carrying a small tin of blank note cards with me where ever i go, so that i can always write a small note of encouragement or appreciation to the friends i meet. consciously reminding myself to be more thankful of others/be a blessing to others has also given me more joy 🙂
The only things of inteterest in my purse are 4 different lipsticks (I'm eternally searching for the perfect shade) and a blank check from my boss. He gave it to me two years ago when I was buying my house, in case something came up last minute. I can't bring myself to throw it away…
I have my phone, my grocery list, and 3 chapsticks!
Sometimes I leave home in the early morning and don't return until late. It's taught me to pack for how I'd like my day to play out. If I wear sneakers, I'll pack sandals and a shade of Urban Decay lipstick called something like "Shame." I need something frivolous to read on the train (BUST) and something engrossing for when I get a break (Lorrie Moore just now). A small notebook and pen. My denim jacket with the sleeves permanently rolled up and round sunglasses. Almonds, to share, and an apple. Phone. Debit. ID. Starburst.
What beautiful purses! Yes, I find the bigger the purse, the more I find to fit in it! Right now I have a smaller purse, so I've squeezed in sunglasses, eyeglasses, lip gloss, wallet, pocket calendar, THREE little packets of kleenex (how did that happen?!?), wet wipes, pens, bandaid holder, toothpick holder, orange tic tacs, a lollipop, medicine, ponytail holder, cough drops, motion sickness pills (I once threw up in my purse!), gum, and extra keys. Bonus temporary items: AMC theater receipts from two movies this week, a Pavillions grocery receipt, bluetooth headset, Powell & Peralta skateboard shop receipt(bonus suprise for my husband), Ralphs coupons, tickets for my son's dance recital, CVS coupons, dr.'s past visit summary, PF Chang's receipt, empty container of mini oreos, and orange LEGO remover (!?!). Apparently I really needed to clean out my purse, so thanks for getting me going!!
I don't carry a purse but I need to! I carry a wallet in my back pocket and everything else either stays home or stays in the car (diapers, extra clothes for the babies). Maybe if I carried a purse I wouldn't wear jeans every day just to accommodate my wallet. 🙂
Wallet, keys, phone, a bunch of receipts, and a million lip balms!
4 different lip products, my wallet, food journal, earphones, and shell I found three years ago that I take everywhere with me. Remind me every time I come across it of home and my family.
Transit pass, heart-shaped sunglasses, pink lipstick, a tattered wallet, loose change, deodorant, and two children's books – It Was September When We Ran Away the First Time (highly recommend!) and Ruby Lu, Empress of Everything. I'm working in a children's library this summer! 🙂
Also, about a trillion silicon beads and old receipts floating around.
Oh, ya know…the usual…keys, wallet, diaper clutch, 1 green metallic hot wheels, 10 diapers (not for me), a secret stash of bribery gum and orange tic tacs (don't judge me), chapstick (with bite marks in it…also not me…although it is THAT delicious), an extra pair of socks, a pair of baby converse shoes, a baggie of snacks (also not for me, although I could use some teddy grahams right now….), 3 pens, 3 notebooks with the beginnings of letters, birthday party plans, and grocery lists (my son wrote PRETEND BOOBE TRAPSS on my grocery list), and a couple of bobby pins. The usual.
On a side note, I grew up on Boston's south shore and I love the northeast too. Desperately. I would give my eye tooth to be back there, in the fall, in a B&B in Vermont. Home there is most beautiful place on earth.
i usually have mascara and lip gloss there to name a few of the items
wallet,keys,phone,lip gloss
granola bar, lip balm, receipts, cash, ID, chocolate, barrettes (my daughter's), needles (I'm an acupuncturist), measuring tape, stuffed fox (my son's), old grocery list – x2, bus pass, my daughter's sunglasses, my own sunglasses, loose change, and some wilted flowers/weeds (compliments of both children)….
Keys, makeup bag,small wallet and one of those de-lint roller thingies
wallet, coupon holder, gum, Splenda, sunglasses,
Oh my goodness…I am the one who is going to win the game show where they host will say 'i will give 100 if you have a q tip".I carry everything and love little zipper bags..so… I have small first aid kit, q-tips,nail file, rose oil, small scissors, blister baum, velcro, air freshner called de ja poo, gift certificates, tylenol, panatone business card holder with cards,halo oral antiseptic for germs,lipstick, powder,shout wipes,kleenex, these little handwipe discs that puff up when you wet the,tape measure, nook small pop up cup, wallet,keys, sunglasses… oh..and cell phone accessories…
my purse currently contains everything I need to keep me happy if I get stuck somewhere….a small notebook and pen, my phone (i.e…..pictures and music :), a cinnamon tea bag, a packet of stevia, my wallet with as many gift cards and coupons stuffed into it as possible, lara bar, sunblock so i can be outside and flip flops because you never know 😉
I have 4 lip balms/lip sticks, a stick of solid perfume, a make-up bag that I use as a clutch (it was too cute to be *just* a make-up bag), compact, wallet, photos of my nieces from their dance recital, and a hankie my great-grandmother hand stitched daisies onto.
As a little girl I thought that a woman's purse was as magical as Mary Poppins' bag because of the fantastic stuff that could be drawn out of it at any time! Now as a grown woman, and a mother, I know how they have to function as a "home-kit" all day for whatever might arise–and a little something magical/beautiful is still appreciated! My current bag right now feels incredibly light but has an amazing amount of stuff in it: floating loose in the main area is a pen, my sunglasses in a sleeve, my wallet (which is actually made out of pretty fabric, a first for me, I usually go for colorful leather ones) with assorted cards, money, the regular stuff (but here the magic is a folded up $20 tucked away in honor of my grandmother who believed that a woman should always carry a little something for emergencies like running out of gas or coming across a farmstand with glorious red tomatoes); in a little interior pocket I have lip balm and my phone; the larger interior pocket has a bottle of papaya enzymes, a pack of berrymint gum, a key to my parents' house & a key to the clothing boutique I work at on a weird oversized paperclip (we don't have a house key because our house doesn't have any locks, and no car keys because we leave them in our cars–that's what it's like when you live on a farm in a valley of less than 20,000 people), a blue handkerchief from my grandfather, a little container of q-tips (that I swear are like a basic McGyver tool for women), a zippered "beauty" pouch (gorgeous–red leather heart on the outside, purple velvet lined) with a tube of lip gloss, a vial of plumeria perfume, eyeliner, mini mascara container, tiny bottle of hair serum, and I also have another zippered "emergencies" pouch (again with a red leather heart, but this one has a yellow zipper) with a couple of bobby pins, some mini bands for tiny braids, four ponytail holders (because hair emergencies are the most vital kind), a tampon, a thin feminine pad, a heart shaped tin of aspirin (good for mashing onto bee stings and wasp bites, not just headaches), two individual vials of eyedrops, and a couple of plastic toothpicks for flossing.
I don't have a purse right now. In the summer I just grab a tote with the day's necessities and my little wallet, and run out the door!
My purse usually has the basics but also a few fun things it. I always have a sketchbook and various pens. I never know when I'll come across a beautiful building, park, person or animal that will inspire me to draw. I also keep a few snacks with me, and lip balm, deodorant, hand cream, my wallet, and my phone.
My wallet is chock full of love notes, happy Chinese fortunes, artist's busines cards and trinkets that I find on the street. I charge it with love and light everyday and love to empty it out, read all of my little notes and put everything back again (coincidentally, my favorite scene in Amelie… where Amandine has this same happy tradition).
In addition: keys, cell phone, sunglasses, a variety of lipsticks and a secret pocket for tampons!
Wallet, keys, cell phone, sunglasses, lipstick, gum, umbrella and a few palm tree seeds that I bring home from holliday
I consider my purse the small wristlet that I carry most often. I adopted this system several years ago and adore being able to grab just the wristlet and dash out the door without being weighed down by a lot of stuff. It contains my wallet, keys and phone (well, my phone is next to me right now, but is in my purse when I leave the house), as well as two tubes of lip balm, for some reason. I specially chose this wristlet with a clip on one end of the strap so I could clip it around the handles of a larger bag and access it quickly if I need to. It's actually dirty and a bit beaten up, and I upgraded to a larger wallet that barely fits in it, so I should really find my next one (I will never abandon this system!), but I am in no hurry!
(PS, THANK YOU for making a tote bag that zips across the top! It's one of my requirements for a larger bag, because I'm often walking in crowded areas and the idea of hands dipping in my bag and slipping my posessions out makes me totally paranoid! When I replaced my tote bag 5 years ago, it took me forever to find one with enough body and a zipped top!)
Currently, my purse contains my wallet, Japanese kitty coin purse, chewing gum, hand sanitizer, sunglasses, and pepper spray. Needless to say, it's a tiny purse.
walle, cell phone, and hand sanitizers.

|sombrero beach. it seemed like a fun little spot and it gets extra points for being dog friendly!
|this wall brightened up the walk along the highway. every time.
|the dinghy ride into the marina
We've been in Marathon, on a mooring ball in Boot Key Harbor, for a week now. It's been a great place to spend the holiday, with a Publix, Home Depot, and Redbox within walking distance, and a convenient marina facility for showers, laundry and wifi, and plenty of people around to wish us a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, which really, is no small thing.
The weather has been sort of rainy, so we haven't done much besides walk about a mile to the Redbox and get a movie, and then walk back to return it, repeat, repeat. At least we're getting some exercise in between all of the movie watching. We did make the 15 minute trip by dinghy to check out the beach one day, for about 30 minutes, (because one of us doesn't really know what to do with himself on a beach, and it wasn't really hot enough for swimming. I thought it would be our first real beach day of this whole trip, but I'm not counting it.) and we had a good dinner at a local restaurant one night, too. 25¢ wings on Thursday is pretty good motivation for a date night, right?
We're moving on today... to Key West for New Years Eve perhaps? It could either be a fantastic idea, or a terrible one. We'll have to see how it goes.

I do not think the UK is in the right place: it is too legalistic, too bureaucratic and prone to gaming.' He continued: 'When you are dealing with new technology you need to have the tools to make timely decisions and that is not the case. The risk is that the country is going in the wrong direction.'Everything we do is subject to the huge shadow of litigation – the threat of multiple courts and multiple years moving from appeal court to appeal court. We are dealing with multinational corporations with huge reserves.'Richards said that he strongly believed regulators should be open to challenge, however. 'If we make a bad decision it should be able to be overturned on appeal. But we have to balance the two, so we can make timely decisions. At the moment it is out of kilter.'Wireless magazineLeave a CommentPlease write code to prove you're human

The Geminus Gulf was a region in the Beta Quadrant comprising three sectors of space near the common border between the United Federation of Planets and the Romulan Star Empire. Sparsely populated with stars, at the astrographic center of the Gulf was the Chiaros system, containing the region's only known inhabited planet, Chiaros IV.
Because of treaty provisions, neither the Federation nor the Romulan Empire could expanded into the Gulf, unless first invited by a local species. Hence, Chiaros became of great importance to both powers in the early 2370s.
In violation of the treaty, the Romulans constructed a cloaked starbase near Chiaros, and destroyed the USS Slayton while trying to subvert the Chiarosian government. The Romulan agenda for the Gulf was disrupted by the USS Enterprise in 2373. (TNG - Section 31 novel: Rogue)

However, just because a hedge fund manager is among the brightest on Wall Street, doesn't mean he or she always get it right. This is especially true during wild short-term swings, as demonstrated in Tesla's recent trading sessions. However, a short-seller's mistake doesn't necessarily equate a terrific buy for an investor. If you're quick on the trigger or willing to accept gigantic volatility, you can profit from short squeezes. Otherwise, more often than not they become money losers for short sellers and investors alike. Short sellers buy to cover to lock in gains or stop losses, and late to the show momentum buyers can wind up buying at the top of the move. Look at the volume of the 30-minute bars in Tesla and you can see that the majority of volume for Thursday and Friday occurred during spikes followed by weakness. Another great example of a recent short squeeze is First Solar ( FSLR).
In early April, First Solar's shares spiked higher from a short squeeze. Looking at the 30-minute bars on the chart, it becomes clear that chasing the stock only works if you're exceptionally fast at exiting or if you're lucky and the stock has follow-through you hold through retracements. The buyers who waited until the next day to buy First Solar saved over $2 a share. If you want to buy Tesla as an investment, make certain you're buying on a dip. Consider selling a relative number of put options to collect on the high volatility, too. Don't let the price action enthusiasm to overcome sound logic. Otherwise, you may have the keys to an investment that has lost before it crosses the starting line. At the time of publication the author had no position in any of the stocks mentioned.

October 07, 2011
Three seasons ago Cody Ceci was in the stands at the world junior hockey championship — and now he has a chance play in it.
The Ottawa 67's defenceman, a two-way type with good size at 6-foot-3 and 210 pounds, was the youngest player to attend Hockey Canada's summer development camp. The Orleans, Ont., native, has used that as a springboard into the season with his hometown team, counting two goals and eight points in his first five games.
"It gave me a lot of confidence playing with and against the top 48 players in Canada," the 6-foot-3, 210-pound Ceci, who's projected as a potential NHL first-round pick, says of his summer camping trip. "That helped me see what I'm up against, try and match my skill level to theirs."
"I got to go to a couple games," Ceci says of the 2009 world junior that was held in the nation's capital. "It was pretty cool to have it my hometown. I never even really thought of me playing in it because at time it seemed so far off."
Ceci wasted little time establishing himself in the OHL as rookie in 2010 even though he was one of the league's youngest players. He's known for being technically sound and disciplined, with just 40 penalty minutes in 137 OHL games, which is remarkable for a defenceman. However, he is trying to round out his game by playing more physically, as well as jumping into the rush more frequently.
"Something I wanted to bring to the team was to help out a little more offensively," says Ceci, who had nine goals and 34 points while playing all 68 games last seaosn. "I was more offensive in minor midget so I am trying to bring that back now that I'm more comfortable in the league ... they haven't really said not to [jump into rushes], so I've just been playing a different style of game lately. I've been playing with [67's captain Marc] Zanetti and he's really strong d-man who allows me to do that.
"I'd like to get 15 goals and maybe 50 points, but I'm not going to put too much pressure on myself."
Ceci comes by his athletic ability honestly. His father, Parri Ceci, was a talented receiver in football who led the Guelph Gryphons to the Canadian university football title in 1984 and played for the CFL's Calgary Stampeders. His mother, Karen Sylvester, was a figure skater. Their son, meantime, wouldn't mind treating his parents to a playoff run after reaching the second round just once in his first three OHL seasons.
"We have a good team and if we do the little things we could go far," Cody Ceci says. "Playing hard right to the end of the game and staying out of the penalty box. We've been in the box quite a bit."
1. How did moving away for boarding school in grades 9 and 10 (at Lakefield College School in Peterborough, Ont.) help you with your hockey?
"That really made me realize how much I really love the game. When I first went down there, I wasn't allowed to play for a couple months [due to a protracted dispute over getting his release from another minor hockey association — Ed.]. Just taking hockey out of my life made me realize how much I enjoy doing it and how much I need it in my life. That helped me in that way. Once I got going I was able to play for the Peterborough [minor hockey] team and I was playing for the school team, so I was able to get lots of ice, lots of good coaching."
2. Whom in the NHL do you watch and say, "I need to play more like that" or "I see some of my game in his?"
"Some guys say I kind of play like [Los Angeles Kings star] Drew Doughty. I take that as a compliment, he's a really good defenceman. Also, I like to model my game after [Detroit Red Wings captain] Nik Lidstrom, his style."
3. In your mind, what would scouts say is the biggest area of your game have to work on between now and when you'll be on the cusp of turning pro?
"Maybe play a little more physical. I'm a pretty big guy [6-foot-3, 210] so I need to use that to my advantage and maybe lay the body a little bit more.
" ... Being more physical is one of those things you can't practise in practice. It's just something you got to go out there and do. Bring up the intensity and make a couple hits. Just think about, instead of going for the puck every time, laying a couple hits every once in a while."
4. Aside from your home arena (Ottawa Civic Centre), where is your favourite place to play in the OHL?
"I like Windsor's arena, good fans and they always have good atmosphere. I like playing in Peterborough, more so just going down there. I have a bunch of old friends down there and they always come to games, plus I usually get to see all my old coaches."
5. Favourite TV show or movie?
"Favourite movie is probably Hot Rod. I love that one. We always watch it at my cottage. Favourite TV show is probably How I Met Your Mother or Family Guy."
(Hot Rod has a surprisingly strong 6.5 rating on IMDb.)

LAFAYETTE - Construction on Lafayette Parish's newest library could begin early next year, libraries Director Sona Dombourian said.
The East Regional Library will be located on La Neuville Road adjacent to Fabacher Field, a Lafayette Parks and Recreation ballpark.
If the $3.75 million, 15,000-square-foot project goes out to bid in November, construction could start by early 2012, Dombourian said.
If weather or other problems do not stall the project, move-in could be as early as 2013, she said.
Designers are finalizing construction documents, which should be complete by late September, said Charles Beazley, of Architects Beazley Moliere.
The new library features a contemporary and open design with plenty of views of the nearby park, Beazley said.
"We've been referring to it as the ?pavilion in the park,' " Beazley said.
The "open feel" of the design fits with the site's location, adjacent to a ballpark and a playground, Dombouriann said.
There's also room to grow.
The building has been designed to easily expand by about 25,000 square feet if demand grows or funding allows, she said.
In the design process, slight changes were made to keep the project on budget.
"The biggest one was a meeting room that we had hoped to be able to divide into three smaller rooms as needed," Dombourian said.
The order was reduced from two ceiling-to-floor, soundproof room partitions to only one, enabling the 1,500-square-foot space to be divided into two separate rooms.
"That saved $75,000 right off the top," she said.
The changes made did not impact planned library services, Dombourian said.
The library will also feature four study rooms and a larger study room where group meetings could be held; collection areas specific to children, teens and adults; a computer area; and a drive-thru return.
The project is one of four new library branches that were part of a $40 million bond measure approved by voters in 2002.
So far, two of the four branches are complete.
In 2009, a 37,600-square-foot South Regional Branch opened on Johnston Street and in 2007, the 12,500-square-foot North Regional opened in Carencro.
A fourth new library - a West Regional branch - is planned for the Scott/Duson area, but no location has been selected, Dombourian said.
The 2002 bond measure also included major renovations of the main library branch downtown.
In preparation for the work, the main branch relocated to 538 Jefferson St. in April.
Before renovations begin, asbestos must be removed from the building, which is more than 40 years old.
Dombourian said staff members are boxing up the branch's collection for relocation to a warehouse during the renovations. The stored books will remain in circulation and be taken to branches as the public requests them, she explained.

Thank you for your advice.
And I compiled the libvirt-0.7.4 again
make install
After reboot the machine, I run the binary virsh, the result is as below:
[root kvm bin]#virsh
error: unable to connect to '/usr/local/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock': No such file or directory
error: failed to connect to the hypervisor
Then I run the virsh -c ,the result is as below:
[root kvm bin]#virsh -c qemu+unix:///system?socket=/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock
error: unable to connect to '/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock': No such file or directory
error: failed to connect to the hypervisor
At the same time, I found the libvird didn't running, I don't know whether this caused the error or not.
I don't know why this error occurs.
Maybe the reason is the libvirt didn't support the use kvm virtualization on ia64 as berrange said before.
But I modify the qemu_conf.c and add ia64 information into the struct arch_info_hvm.
Then compiled again. The errors remain.
Please forgive my poor program skills, I can't add the ia64 into the libvirt kvm supports.
Will you want to do some works on this?
Thanks a lot.

Simon Says does MAGIC! http://sfe.io/n1206
You know… idea hits - Sparkfun already has a 4 button w/led display and buzzer. :) I bet it would be no problem at all to hack the game buzzer code in to the Simon-Says, like when I made it do Magic. See https://www.sparkfun.com/news/1206
Indiana Jones has left the building…
Ah yes, the good old days. :) I have an ASR-33 in my basement. It is one of the ones with the built in 110Baud modem in a 1 foot square 6" wide aluminum box in back of the pedestal. I go back to 100 and 300 baud acoustic coupled modems as well. (Not to mention Baudot.) I remember the jumps to 1200 (Bell 212A), 9600, 14.4K, 33.6 and the biggy: 56K…. Thought we were on the top of the wold if you could connect at 56K! But then MaBell would throw us curves. All goes back to the implementation of their digital carrier system, and the still-in-use-to-this-day T1. A T1 channel is properly a 64kbps digital channel into which the analog voice/signal was digitized. This was just enough to support the 56K audio bandwidth on a good day. However a bunch of folks wound up never connecting at more then 33.6 no matter what they did. This was due to either bit-robbed T1 carrier in their audio path, which was only a 58Kbps channel - or what MaBell used to install if they were short of copper pairs to a location: A analog/digital carrier, so they could get 2 POTS lines from one copper pair. It also ran with 58Kbps audio channels. So either set up precluded getting anything faster then 33.6. It became some folks hole grail quest to get this phone lines rebuilt to support 56K. Ah the good old days!
Tube light? ARGH! :)
There was once a world without LEDs :) The Venerable NE2 still lives! :)
Now prepare for the Conventional Versus Electron Flow arguments, and don't forget to put the Sealed Lead Acid battery back in the Emergency Lights. ;)
User Manuel :)
Interesting device. I will have to look in to this.
But its still ticking…
555 4ever!
OK, so the idea in the back of my head would be to get a plastic hamster ball, Into which we stuff the edison controller. The key component here would be the PWM block, because with it we could control little weighted servos and flash some LEDS and beepers… Do you see where we are going with this? Do it yourself BB8 droid. :) Yes, would need batteries, and more then likely a motion detector block, and a little other IO, but without the PWM block there would be no motion and little high current switching for the blinky/buzzy. Down the road we add on a few more block to improve the ball-droid interaction with the world. :)
No public wish lists :(

"Raw human emotion where desire collides with fear, fantasy interrupts, challenges abound and hope is restored. For the avid imagination and gutsy risk-taker. A ride for explorers of life's mysteries untold."– Linda Plater, Writer and Media Consultant, age 43
What (more) readers say
MBA student Althea Brecht's life changes overnight when she discovers her boyfriend's betrayal. Devastated, she focuses on the future. Yet the more she does, the more her past threatens to engulf her.
Desperate to forget, she falls into the arms of a lover whose desire for control borders on sexual obsession. In a chance encounter, she meets Michael Foster, a man with secrets of his own. Later, she's plagued by visions of a seductive green-eyed man who claims to be able to unlock her past and change her future.
Wondering about her own sanity, Althea seeks answers in chillingly accurate tarot card readings and in the ancient secrets of karmic astrology. In dreams, she receives unsettling messages from her step-father Albert who died when she was a child.

Understanding the Role of Antibodies in Mother-to-Child Transmission of HIV Using Nonhuman Primate M
"Understanding the Role of Antibodies in Mother-to-Child Transmission of HIV Using Nonhuman Primate Models" A Lecture by Nancy L. Haigwood, Ph.D., Director of the Oregon National Primate Research Center, delivered on June 10, 2010 at UC Irvine Institute for Immunology.
Theory of functions of a real variable
I have taught the beginning graduate course in real variables and functional analysis three times in the last five years, and this book is the result. The course assumes that the student has seen the basics of real variable theory and point set topology. The elements of the topology of metrics spaces are presented (in the nature of a rapid review) in Chapter I. The course itself consists of two parts: 1) measure theory and integration, and 2) Hilbert space theory, especially the spectral theorem

With the exception of orchestral performances and truly "unplugged" concerts, today's music has evolved into a very hi-tech industry. It takes elements from many disciplines, including computer science, electrical and mechanical engineering, mathematics, and physics. Because music technology encompasses everything from audio compression and encoding to advanced sound equipment, this Topic in Depth has quite a broad scope.A decent introduction to some aspects of music technology (1) mainly deals

"When that whistle was blown in The Sound of Music, you made my day," Arianda gushed.
InStyle magazine featured the event in a Weddings special issue, interviewing the newlyweds who gushed about each other.
But the transformation that Jowell gushed about simply never materialized.
But that day at the London, Zemeckis gushed that "no one is more supportive of Staar than Bob."
I just gushed about my husband and he never brought it up again.
"Father was called away, and it was so dreary—I just ran over to see everyone," gushed Tavia.
One morning he found that the oil had gushed in nearly to the top of the well.
It gushed everywhere, reminding him of another Spring he had known among the mountains.
At first it seemed to be rushing in as fast as it gushed out.
Thyme faced round; there was a sort of passion in her darkened eyes, rimmed pink with grief, and in all her gushed, wet face.
12c., gosshien "make noises in the stomach," later (c.1400) "rush out suddenly, pour out," probably formed imitativeally in English under influence of Old Norse gusa "to gush, spurt," related to geyser. Metaphoric sense of "speak in an effusive manner" first recorded 1873. Related: Gushed; gushing. The noun is 1680s, from the verb.

Chrysler Group's Dodge brand plays a visible role in the Vince Vaughn movie, The Dilemma, in which his character declares "Electric cars are gay." But so far, it has steered clear of the controversy about the phrase.
After CNN's Anderson Cooper denounced the phrase last week on Ellen DeGeneres' talk show, Universal Pictures excised the phrase from the movie's trailer. But what about the movie? The controversial phrase uttered by Vaughn in a boardroom meeting is immediately followed by his character's endorsement of macho Dodge muscle cars.
A Chrysler spokeswoman, Dianna Gutierrez, says Chrysler supplied cars for the movie, but she didn't elaborate further on the financial arrangement and said she didn't know whether a request had been made to pull the offending phrase from the film. She said Chrysler did not play a role in Universal's decision to edit the movie's trailer.
Through it all, Chrysler is still considered "gay friendly," says Joe Tralongo, editor of GayWheels.com, an auto website that follows cars from a gay perspective:
"Dodge is considered to be a gay-friendly automaker because they provide domestic partner benefits to their gay and lesbian employees, a benefit that still eludes the LGBT employees of some Dodge competitors," Tralongo wrote in an e-mail to Drive On. "While the joke may have been insensitive and in poor taste, I feel its more important to judge a company on its long-term commitment to its LGBT employees and not on a single, albeit poorly planned one-line joke. As the studio that made the movie has retracted the trailer and I believe re-edited the scene, I consider the matter sufficiently resolved."

In a landmark judgment, the Supreme Court of India has said people convicted of crime cannot hold parliamentary positions.
The ruling is indeed a milestone in the country's political history since there are quite a lot of corrupt and convicted politicians holding offices and important parliamentary positions in India. This is probably one of the many characteristics the country shares with its neighboring country Pakistan.
Though legislation in India pertaining to convicted lawmakers was more or less the same, that is, the politicians found guilty of a crime were allowed to stay as long as their cases were pending in courts. The different clause this time around is that they can't stay on regardless of appeals to higher courts which is a good step since many politicians in India use their influence and 'resources' to constantly keep the appeals alive.
Corruption cases mostly don't even enter the judicial system in India. Even if they make it, the entire process is incredibly slow. Sometimes the documents get lost, witnesses change their statements or complainants withdraw their allegations over death threats.
Apparently this particular ruling passed by the Supreme Court will not allow the corrupt politicians to prolong the cases filed against them. They will not be able to buy time to complete their term in office which is great for the people and will definitely help to clean up the political system but only if the legislation is actually used.
An Indian news writer argues that the verdict will not work in India. According to him, "Our [Indian] democracy survives on votebanks, which is basically a form of group loyalty. And in such a system, expecting parties to voluntarily opt for clean candidates with little 'loyalty' over those who are tainted but effective is nothing more than daydreaming."
He might be right, but if implemented, the verdict will certainly bring about hopes for change in Indian politics. At least the Indian Supreme Court has taken a step towards something like that. This though is yet to dawn upon the Supreme Court of Pakistan and they need it as much as Indians.

Types of Cheating Men
Here are some of the situations that can tell you how loyal is your partner and can also help you in making a right decision about your love life.1. Guys who are always "secretive": If your guy tends to hide a lot of things from you and make it obvious in front of you, keep a check on him. There should be certain amount of transparency in a relationship and the level of trust should be extremely high!
2. Guy who doubts your intentions: A relationship without trust holds no meaning and is totally not worth it. So, if a guy who keeps on doubting your commitment is probably not doing justice to your relationship
3. Guy who loves you for "appearance": If he keeps on praising you about you look and wants to date you because you are hot, beware! He might cheat you for some other girl in future. You don't need someone who loves you for the way you dress up!
4. Guy who ignores you in public: You are dating him for many years now but he is still uncomfortable with you in crowd? If yes, you need to pull your socks up and keep a check on him. Remember, your guy should be proud to have you in his life.
5. If he keeps "flirting with other girls": Once a while its ok, but if it keeps on happening every time, you got to be extremely careful. Because, every guy who is in a relationship should hold some amount of dignity and respect towards the girl he loves!
6. The guy who has a bad track record in relationships: The main problem is not when you date a guy who have been in relationships earlier. But if the same guy is not guilty about it and boosts his number of relationships in public, he is not the one for you!
7. The one who keeps on criticizing you: If your boyfriend keeps on insulting you and criticizing you over the cloths you wear or the way look, do not take his shit and move on. He is probably going to cheat you in future!
8. Guy who is not bothered about your mood swings: Everyone goes through a lot in life and at this point of time, you need someone to be by your side and understand what you are feeling at the very moment. If your guy does the same, then it fine. But of you feel alone despite being in a committed relationship, then you must give a second thought to the guy who claims to be in love with you!
9. If he never cancels his plans for you: It's fair to ask for a space in every love relationship. But at times it feels nice when a guy ditch his plans with friends and give a pleasant surprise to his girl. If he is not doing so, he might leave you anytime in future!
10. If he keeps you away from family If there is anything that can be considered as the biggest proof of love, is a guy taking a girl to meet his family. If a guy is not doing so even after many years of relationship, you are probably stuck with a wrong guy!
