DistroWatch Weekly, Issue 504
Welcome to this year's 16th issue of DistroWatch Weekly! The Enlightenment window manager might not be to everybody's taste, but it does have a decent following among the users who prefer a lightweight yet good-looking desktop with plenty of unusual effects. In today's world of free operating systems Bodhi Linux is probably the most popular project that attempts to integrate Enlightenment with one of the big Linux distributions. How successful is it? Jesse Smith takes a look at Bodhi's latest release to find out.
In the news section, Ubuntu prepares for a busy week of "Raring Ringtail" releases that will include two new official flavours, Debian announces a target release day for "Wheezy", Slackware considers its option for main software components as it prepares for a new stable release, and Fuduntu contemplates its future after the project's founder calls it quits.

Most camera bags are great at protecting your gear, but not so great at making you look great. The alternative is ONA, a maker of distinctive, high- camera bags, like this messenger-style Union Street model.
What is it?
A well-made, attractive, and quite expensive $289 messenger bag designed to hold a 15-inch laptop and a DSLR with 2-3 lenses.
Who is it for?
Photographers looking to transcend the typical black nylon bag.
Stylish, for sure. Materials include supple, seductive leather and fine, wax-infused cotton canvas. Sufficient padding, appropriately sized compartments.
Using It
If you don't know how to put stuff in a bag, I can't help you.
The Best Part
You just feel cool toting this bag, and you can use it every day—it works well when you aren't carrying camera gear, unlike most dedicated camera bags.
Tragic Flaw
This bag is not for run-and-gun shooting. A DSLR with a lens attached, plus the laptop and accessories, makes it feel bulky and overstuffed.
Test Notes
- The test tote load, over several months of use, included a 15-inch Macbook Pro, and a Canon 7D with a 17-55mm f/2.8 lens, a 50mm f/1.2 lens, and a Speedlight 430EX.
- Things feel less bulky if your camera body is detached from any lens when bagged. But then you're not ready to shoot right away.
- The color of the bag is "smoke." It has a distressed look to it. It's lovely looking, but easily scuffed.
- The buckles on the flap are nice, but a bit too cumbersome. They're fine for luggage, not fine for quick access.
- When placed on the floor or table, the bag naturally stands upright, instead of keeling over. Love that.
- A messenger bag full of photography equipment, in general, is harsh on the shoulder and bulky on the hip.
Should You Buy It?
Probably not. Full disclosure—this is not a review unit. I actually bought it months ago. Now, I'm back to carrying my gear in the weather-resistant LowePro backpack I've had for years.
The ONA is a really beautiful, American-made bag, but it (and messenger bags in general) are not as good as a compartmentalized backpack for quick work with a DSLR. Oh well. It makes a really nice carry-on.
ONA Union Street Bag
• Price: $289
• Dimensions: 16.5" x 11" X 5"
• Materials: water-resistant waxed canvas, full-grain leather, antique brass hardware
• Fits: 15" Laptop, DSLR and up to 3 lenses
• Giz Rank: 3 stars

Great reference spot. I'm lovin it
Welcome to the Quilting Board!
Great reference spot. I'm lovin it
Does anyone have any tips on making continuous bias binding? I know I did it years ago, but I am having difficulty, even with a book in front of me? I found a tutorial that requires yet another special ruler, which I have plenty of! Also to whoever gave the tip on using the waffle type of shelf lining to put under your presser foot, THANK YOU. Works great, and I have had tried a number of things. This one really works.
Just finished my first two rag quilts. I didn't like the fuzzies that remained. I took a regular cardboard emery board and using the rough side. To clean off these fuzzies. Best to place quilt on a flat surface ( coffee table footstool etc). It worked great. Be sure and use the small end too, One could probably use the sweater shavers, but I never seem to have the right batteries. This is simple and it works as it rolls up the fuzzies and then you can pick them up.
Another quick tip on a scrappy quilt. Cut four 4" squares two plain and two print. Cut a twenty inch piece of newspaper-- iron to set ink. Sew you four flocks together, place in the center of the newspaper on point (meaning the points of your four patch to the flat side of the paper. tear strips or cut and starting at one side of the four block stitch the strip to one side (sort of like a log cabin). You will work counter-clockwise around the block enclosing the former end seam. As you fill in your strips will get longer and as you get near the edge of the newspaper they will get shorter. If you want to get fancy, buy enough print fabric for the back, a ruffle and make two of the print blocks to match. I stitched in the ditch, you could also tie this quilt and make it a comforter. Tear off paper before quilting.
You can also use the pinking blades that fit your rotary cutter.
Everyone you meet comes with baggage. Find someone who loves you enough to unpack. Anonymous
What a great idea!!!! Thanks
Would you send me a way to get to the tips page? I'm new at this and am lost. I really like the idea of a tips page, if I could only find it. Remember, I'm new so I don't understand any of the letters, like PM. Thank you so much. Jeanne
"Be yourself...everyone else is taken."
Strong people don't put others down...they build them up."
"Remember that your instincts are more important than rules"
I need some tips on "hand stitching" I'm a beginner sewer and started making decorative pillows. What is the trick with hand stitching to making an "invisible line" after you stuff your pillows?

The bridge on the East Beckley Bypass spans Cranberry Creek. Burroughs was among four people killed when a propane gas explosion leveled the Little General Store in Ghent in January 2007. He was a member of the Ghent Volunteer Fire Department.The U.S. Chemical Safety Board used the Ghent explosion to create a training video called "Half an Hour to Tragedy." The title came from the time that passed as propane leaking from a tank filled the store and eventually ignited.

Deputy director of Iraqi TV channel killed in truck bomb attack
A suicide attacker driving a garbage truck packed with explosives blasted near the main entrance of Baghdad TV's offices, killing Deputy Director Thaer Ahmad Jaber and injuring 12 employees, four of whom are in critical condition, according to a statement by the Iraqi Islamic Party and CPJ sources. The Journalistic Freedoms Observatory, an Iraqi press freedom organization, reported that the attackers fired at the station's guards, clearing the way for the truck. The front of the building, which houses the Iraqi Islamic Party-owned Baghdad TV and Radio Dar al-Salam, was destroyed along with several station and employee cars, according to news reports. The station's main transmission equipment was damaged briefly interrupting its broadcast.

A candidate for Toledo City Council yesterday called for less red tape when applying for grants, loans, and minority-contractor status and advocated a $1 million public-private fund to help minority contractors compete.
Adam Martinez, one of 11 people seeking six at-large seats, was joined in his news conference yesterday by Keith Wilkowski, the endorsed Democratic candidate for mayor. Mr. Martinez is one of seven Democrats endorsed for council.
Mr. Martinez called for universal, online applications that would be used by all area governments. He cited his own difficulty in getting approved for a city minority business enterprise certificate.
He said he has applied twice in the last two to three years and made "a couple of dozen" phone calls and received only one in return.
Mr. Martinez, who has a grass-cutting and snow-removal business, said he has obtained city contracts anyway, even without the certification, because of his knowledge of city government.
"What does it take to really return a phone call. I know people are busy, but there are certain things that need to be done, regardless," he said.
Calvin Brown, the city's commissioner of affirmative action, said Mr. Martinez applied for minority-contractor enterprise certification Aug. 14, 2008. The certificate was approved Oct. 21, 2009.
The application requires extensive documentation, and automatically qualifies the contractor as a minority contractor for the state, Mr. Brown noted.
Mr. Martinez called for a loan fund to be set up by the Toledo-Lucas County Port Authority, the city, the Northwest Ohio Building Trades Council, and the state. He said the city's share would come from federal block grants. The loans would help minority and female contractors with performance bonds and cash flow.
Mr. Wilkowski said Mr. Martinez's "substantive proposal" for a revolving loan is something he supports.

The Piano Technology programs attract students who share a passion for music, problem solving and mechanics, and the hand skills used to restore and care for beautiful musical instruments.
The nine-month Basic Piano Technology program covers comprehensive instruction in all phases of aural piano tuning including the concepts upon which equal temperament is founded. Students learn to tune, regulate and repair the actions of both upright and grand pianos. Classes include hands-on work, lectures and field trips. The history of keyboard instruments, business practice and ethics, advertising and promotion are included in the curriculum. The topics covered include:
The nine-month Advanced Piano Technology program focuses on the entire piano and is devoted to comprehensive piano service including advanced tuning and regulation practice, discussion and resolution of service problems that occur in the field. Grand piano repair and rebuilding is also covered in depth. The topics covered include:
Training received in the NBSS Piano Technology program provides graduates with the technical skills, knowledge, and confidence to begin working immediately upon graduation.
Every year, Advanced Piano Technology students, working in teams of two or three, completely dismantle, rebuild and restore grand pianos. The pianos are either donated to the school or done on commission for individuals who pay the school for the work. The story of one of the pianos that was rebuilt in 2011-2012 is online.

Gravity does most of the work
MARINE CORPS BASE CAMP LEJEUNE, N.C. (January 22) – "You're falling to the Earth, to your death, unless you do something about it," said Senior Chief Anthony Schudel, the Master Diver for 2nd Reconnaissance Battalion, 2nd Marine Division. "There are a lot of things beyond your control that can go wrong with parachuting."
Jumping out of a perfectly good aircraft seems like a crazy idea to most, but for the Marines and sailors of 2nd Reconnaissance Battalion, it's just another Wednesday.
"This is a skill you have to keep at or it's vitally lost," said Schudel, a veteran of 541 jumps. "It's a critical skill, but once you're back in the aircraft it all kind of comes back to you."
In order to stay proficient as a top tier reconnaissance unit, Marines with the battalion must consistently sharpen their skills or risk losing them. While many of the service members jumped as part of a low-level static line jump, several of the more experienced jumpers took to the clouds for a free-fall jump from 10,000 feet.
"We would like to get everybody to that military free-fall capability because you can't hear the aircraft at that altitude; you can't hear the Marines open their chutes at that altitude. We would like to get everyone to that level. Jumping, diving, or fast-roping, it's just a means to get to the mission," said LtCol Robert Revoir, the commanding officer of 2nd Recon. "Our primary mission is ground reconnaissance, battlefield shaping and amphibious reconnaissance. Most of those require a clandestine insertion. (Jumping) is a clandestine insertion capability."
Physically, the Marines must endure the weight of the equipment on their back, the force that terminal velocity - approximately 122 miles-per-hour for a skydiver in the belly-to-earth position, takes on their frame as well as be able to carry their parachute back to their starting position. Mentally, the service members must overcome the sheer terror of jumping out of a helicopter and be able to improvise in case any unforeseen emergency happens during their flight back to Earth. Luckily the Marines of 2nd Recon are headstrong, determined, and can't wait for their next jump.
"Standing on the edge of the ramp in a fast moving aircraft, looking down, you can see all the landscape and the ocean – the wind is howling and you know you are going to get ready to start flying through the air, it's pretty exhilarating," said Schudel. "For these guys this is typically a no fail mission, failure is not an option for a lot of the things that they do, so this is why we come out and do sustainment jumps, so that they can keep driving on."
The Defense Video & Imagery Distribution System (DVIDS) is provided as a public service operated by Third Army/U.S. Army Central (ARCENT) on behalf of the Department of the Army in support of all branches of the U.S. military (Navy, Air Force, Marines) and its Coalition partners serving in the U.S. Forces Central Command (CENTCOM) area of responsibility.

I really don't want to enter the objectivist/subjectivist power cord argument , anymore than I want to the argue the non existence of a omnipresent omnipotent creator of the universe, but would like to commend gotchaforce for a highly amusing thread.
If you were really keen about audio reproduction, you'd invest in mains isolated power supply, ie deep cycle batteries and a high quality inverter/charger. |
my point was more to help him understand the other side of the arguement, I honestly don't take a side on it, I'm just trying to help him see the otherside of his arguement
given that he basically started this thread to flamewar with audiophiles, I figured I'd try to get a logical (albeit half asleep) response to him before it just gets burned down

Gay Marriage Fight Comes to Southern Courtroom
The ban on same-sex marriage is just like an old Virginia law that made interracial marriages illegal, and it's time for Virginia to stop discriminating against gays and lesbians, a state attorney told a federal judge Tuesday.
But lawyers who support the ban said if the law is to change, it should be done by the legislature, and there has never been a fundamental right to same-sex marriage.
"We have marriage laws in society because we have children, not because we have adults," said attorney David Nimocks of the religious group Alliance Defending Freedom.
The case is the first one in the South to reach oral arguments before a federal judge. Recently elected Democratic Attorney General Mark Herring announced Jan. 23 that he would not defend the state in the lawsuit because he believed it violates the equal protection clause of the 14th Amendment.
In overturning bans in Utah and Oklahoma, federal judges have also said those laws violate the 14th amendment.
Virginia Solicitor General Stuart Raphael told the judge Virginia had frequently been on the wrong side of history, citing the state's ban on interracial marriages, its defense of segregation as well as its opposition to allowing female students into the Virginia Military Institute.
Raphael said supporters of the ban have failed to prove how allowing gay marriage would make opposite sex couples less likely to marry.
"That's the Achilles heel in the argument," he said.
Before the hearing, dozens of protesters gathered at the courthouse and shouted phrases decrying Herring's position. Some of them carried signs saying: "Herring's herring. AG's must uphold the law." Across the street, a much smaller group of supporters shouted their support for gay marriage and carried signs saying: "Marry who you love," which drew honks of support from drivers passing by downtown.
U.S. District Judge Arenda L. Wright Allen said she would rule soon. If Wright Allen finds Virginia's law unconstitutional, Raphael asked her to issue a stay so that nobody can get married until the case is heard on appeal.
He said the state wanted to avoid the situation Utah found itself in after marriages were briefly allowed to occur there before a stay was issued.
With Herring's office deciding to side with the plaintiffs, the job of defending the law fell to the legal team of Norfolk's Circuit Court clerk.
Attorney David Oakley said the court should respect the legislative process that created the law. If the law is to be changed, it should be done through the legislature, he said.
In addition, an attorney for the religious group Alliance Defending Freedom argued on behalf of the Prince William County's clerk, which was allowed to intervene in the case. The clerk asked to intervene because of worries the attorney general's office wouldn't do an adequate job defending the law.
While Herring attended the hearing, he did not speak. At a later news conference, Herring dismissed criticisms that he was ignoring his responsibility to defend the state constitution. He said he also swore to uphold the U.S. constitution, and he believes they conflict in this case.
The lawsuit challenging the ban was filed on behalf of Norfolk couple Timothy Bostic and Tony London, who were denied a marriage license by the Norfolk Circuit Court on July 1. The lawsuit said the state's law denies them liberties that are guaranteed by the 14th Amendment.
Since then, a Chesterfield County couple, Carol Schall and Mary Townley, have joined the case. The couple married in California in 2008. They have a teenage daughter and want Virginia to recognize their marriage.
The attorneys representing the plaintiffs on behalf of the American Foundation for Equal rights are the same ones that successfully challenged California's ban on gay marriage in court there.
After Herring's office decided not to defend the law, Wright Allen considered not even hearing verbal arguments in the case because of the "compelling" filing by the attorney general's office. Wright Allen is a former public defender and assistant U.S. attorney who was appointed to the post by President Barack Obama.
The lawsuit was filed shortly after the U.S. Supreme Court struck down the section of the federal Defense of Marriage Act that prevented gay couples from receiving a range of federal benefits that are generally available to married people.
Herring's announcement last month came on the heels of court rulings in which federal judges struck down gay-marriage bans in Utah and Oklahoma.
Currently 17 states and the District of Columbia allow gay marriage. Most are clustered in the Northeast; none is in the former Confederacy.
Nationwide, there are more than a dozen states with federal lawsuits challenging state bans on same-sex marriage.

NSF Director Subra Suresh Named Carnegie Mellon University President
National Science Foundation Director Subra Suresh announced today that he will step down from his current role at NSF at the end of March to accept an appointment as Carnegie Mellon University's ninth president, effective July 1. In a note to NSF staff distributed this morning, Suresh said, "It has been my extraordinary honor to lead the National Science Foundation, which is blessed with a marvelous cohort of highly talented and devoted staff, as well as hundreds of thousands of innovative grantees and investigators from every field of science and engineering. I am grateful for the opportunity to serve the country in this capacity." Commenting on Suresh's accomplishments as NSF Director, John Holdren, Assistant to the President for Science and Technology and Director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy said, "I want to thank Subra Suresh for his outstanding service as Director of the National Science Foundation. Subra has made critical contributions to a broad range of science and technology priorities, including expanding federal investments in fundamental research, accelerating the commercialization of university research, and strengthening our scientific collaborations with partners around the world. He also leaves a crucially important legacy of having expanded NSF's family-friendly policies, which make it easier for young scientists to balance the challenges of furthering their careers while raising a family." Daniel Arvizu, National Science Board (NSB) Chairman said, "Dr. Suresh has provided extraordinary vision and leadership to position NSF to extract even greater benefits from the national investment in science than ever before. His accomplishments are many, but noteworthy are his unprecedented engagement and collaboration with the international community and his interest to ensure that NSF-sponsored science results find their way more quickly into the marketplace. We will certainly miss his leadership and friendship on the NSB, but wish him well and continued success as he takes the helm at one of nation's finest academic institutions." Alan Leshner, Chief Executive Officer of the American Association for the Advancement of Science and NSB member said, "Subra Suresh brought impressive vision and vigor to the directorship of NSF. He began a series of initiatives that will have lasting impact in advancing science, engineering and scientific careers in many venues where science is done, whether academia or industry." Suresh was nominated in 2010 by President Barack Obama and unanimously confirmed by the U.S. Senate to lead NSF, a $7 billion independent federal science agency charged with advancing all fields of fundamental science and engineering research and related education. Previously, Suresh served as dean of the School of Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and has been on leave as the Vannevar Bush Professor of Engineering at MIT while serving as NSF Director. -NSF- STATEMENT FROM THE PRESIDENT ON THE DEPARTURE OF SUBRA SURESH THE WHITE HOUSE For Immediate Release We have been very fortunate to have Subra Suresh guiding the National Science Foundation for the last two years. Subra has shown himself to be a consummate scientist and engineer--beholden to evidence and committed to upholding the highest scientific standards.

"I am the white void. I am the cold steel. I am the just sword. With blade in hand shall I reap the sins of this world, and cleanse it in the fires of destruction. I am Hakumen. The end has come!" - Hakumen.
So all in all he alienated his advisors and is doing whatever pleases him.
I hope Eitrigg remains in the throne room. He's always been level-headed and intelligent.
Actually, he gave up his allegiance in order to keep his honor. I guess you meant the same thing, but worded it a bit weird.
This is true. When we first see Garrosh and Vol'jin in the flashback, they're already at each others' throat. Garrosh yells at Vol'jin to (paraphrasing here) 'don't speak to him that way'. I'd love to see what Vol'jin had said to piss Garrosh off, but unfortunately that happens before the flashback starts.
Yeah, makes sense. Representing the Horde in the Crusade while still keeping true to his roots, that sorta thing.
I still doubt Hellscream will listen to him. It seems he's just doing whatever he wants.
By the way, I found this interesting thingie:
Sauce: http://www.wowwiki.com/Quest:Walk_With_The_Earth_MotherFrom this day, your strength is no longer your own. It belongs to me, and the Horde, as a weapon of War.
Hellscream's eyes are upon you, <name>. Victory or death!
He's really really scaring me...
Just goes to add more to the fact that Garrosh is a horribly inconcistent character. Here he acts wise and thoughtfull, anywhere else he's a right arsehole and arrogant idiot.
And the Zandalar and Raventusk, those tribes are pretty decent too.
Anyways, very interesting. I'm sure we'll be seeing a lot of lore on the PTR soon. Things like Carine's duel, possibly Vol'jin's/Garrosh's "conversation", and Moira's return will likely appear in game.
I'm personally looking forward to being able to see Bane being way more badass then Megatha predicted.
Roleplaying, hardcore Raiding, running LFR on the occasional weekend, PvPing, rolling alts, achievement hunting, pet battling, or just enacting an endless series of whims, I don't care how you play WoW. Just as long as you have fun doing it.
Please go look at the threads I've started and find the one titled Garrosh Hellscream, a Personality For Every Expansion? and read it, it will clear it up, unfortunately the thread itself got locked, because people can't behave themselves and not let Garrosh Threads turn into Flame Wars
Was thinking the same thing... the Garrosh they showed during WotLK would've jumped on this opportunity in a second. Blizzard keeps changing his personality to fit their needs and it makes him out to be more and more of a crappy character... But yeah I'm going to say he is just acting that humble to satisfy Thrall for the time being since he knows Thrall will soon be hard to contact and thus he can get away with a lot more...

Where some British artists have made incredibly positive noise on the international scene this year, Tim Mason has overtaken all competition with one stiff blow. Having donned one of the summer's most sought after anthems The Moment to Size Records, his renowned studio magic has been legitimised with a global romp of some of the finest clubs on offer, packing the same heat as his early anthem for Steve Angello since it's release back in March. Add further remix duties for David Guetta, Lucid, Pnau and Nadia Ali, 2011 has forged something of a dynamic following for the latest Electronic Dance music master to emerge from Brighton.
Rich in rising melodies and atmospheric chords from the outset, Mason's second coming for Size Records matches the relentless energy of his Miami Winter Music Conference stormer with little hesitation. Mustering all his force for another banger fit for both the club floor and the vivacious energy of a packed out festival crowd, Anima further asserts the British producer's hold on global Dance music with an anthem set to champion Size Records and its extending musical empire.

Natural rates in the New Synthesis: Same old trouble?
This paper evaluates the concepts of natural rates of interest and output in Woodford's "neo-Wicksellian" and "benchmark New Keynesian" version of the New Neoclassical Synthesis (NNS) by comparing them with the original approach of Wicksell and critical assessments and adaptations by Lindahl, Myrdal, Keynes and Friedman. It is shown that the theoretical foundations of the NNS prescriptions for monetary policy are ambiguous and incomplete. Using the NNS definition(s) of the natural rate of output, New Keynesian policy rules do not necessarily yield results superior to those of "Old Keynesian" strategies of output stabilization. Moreover, natural rates of interest can hardly be defined independently of the influences of monetary policy. The use of natural-rate concepts in the NNS disregards essential problems that were identified in the older Wicksellian and Keynesian literature.

This is going to be a tutorial on a cute animal that most folks find adorable and fun. Today you will learn how to draw a hamster step by step. You know, I have to say that I have never been personally fond of hamsters because they are part of the rodent family, and anything that is a part of the rodent family I usually stay away from. Hamsters have been a household pet since I can remember. At times they are also used as laboratory animals as well. When these little critters live out in the wild they dig borrows, in these borrows they hide from predators for most of the bright daylight hours. They prefer to come out of hiding during dusk hours all the way till the skies turn a dark navy blue. If you are wondering if these rodents are nocturnal the answer is no, they just prefer to be out and about when most folks eat supper. Hamsters are also bred very easily, which is why they are used as lab animals and housed as family pets. The diet for hamsters consist of fruits, wheat, nuts, vegetables, and even crickets or mealworms at times depending on their environment of course. The appearance of a common hamster is very simple, they have rodent looking hands and feet, a short bobbed tail, so short they often seem like they have no tail at all. They have soft thin ears, much softer than a common rat. The color of their feet, hands, and nose can sometimes look like a pale pink. Hamsters also have short stubby legs and very thick fur. The hamster comes in a variety of colors which include black, grey, brown, white, buff, yellow, or a mix of two colors from the pallet. The sizes of hamsters are quite small ranging between 2-5 inches long depending on the type of breed. When keeping a hamster as a pet all you need is a simple hamster cage set up consisting of wood chips, water bottle, exercise wheel, maybe a tunnel or two and some feed. They are also relatively easy to maintain and care for. In this tutorial you will learn just how easy it is to draw a hamster. As always the step by step instructions are easy to read and follow. I hope you have fun drawing the hamster I know it can be a fun experience for some people.

Rear window is gone! what to do?
This all started after i hit a rather large pot hole in the road and look in my rear view mirror to see some large cracks in my rear hard top window. As i drove they spread, until adventualy i got home and opened the rear window up and it completly shattered, falling out all over the place.
Upon my glass quest, No one can get this kind of glass in stock. I was told that it is out production.:mad: . My question is does anyone know who our where would be stocking this glass or rear window? currently all the junk yards i've called cant locate and/ or don't have any "heeps" in stock. Another question is, would a plexi-glass cut out work, if i cut it to make an exact fit? Thanks for the help, Neil |
i would think that plexi would work but the wiper is gonna eat that sucka up
I never had a wiper to begin with. or defroster.
sweet, im getting started on it this week. It will most likely be alot cheaper than to get a custom cut piece of glass.
btw, does any one know the demensions of the glass? or have a online template or something?

Actress Penelope Cruz and her husband Javier Bardem are expecting their second child, according to a U.S. report.
The Vicky Cristina Barcelona star is pregnant and due to give birth later this year, according to the New York Post.
Representatives for the couple had yet to comment on the news as WENN went to press.
If the reports are true, Cruz and her model sister Monica will be pregnant at the same time - last month the beauty announced she was expecting her first child via an anonymous sperm donor.
Penelope Cruz wed Oscar winner Bardem in 2010. Their firstborn, son Leonardo, turned two on January 22.

Puppy Menu
The Puppy Menu has links for the most frequently used software and tools.
It can be accessed in the following ways:
When the desktop is empty and few windows are opened, it is more convenient to open it by right-clicking the desktop, because most if its area is free. However, when many windows are open, it is hard to find where to right-click it, so the button is more useful in such cases.
The menu is sorted by application categories. For instance, applications that deal with graphics are contained inside the "Graphic" sub-menu and internet-related applications can be found under "Internet".
To start an application, enter its sub-menu by moving your mouse on it, then, click the application's name or icon once to start it.

Years of public relations efforts by NRG and BrightSource have not changed the fact that the Ivanpah Solar Electric Generating System in the eastern Mojave Desert arguably represents one of the most destructive renewable energy projects permitted on public lands by the Obama administration. The Ivanpah Solar project is to the Mojave what oil drilling would be to the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge- unnecessarily destruction with the proven risk of ongoing impacts to wildlife from operations. The Ivanpah Solar project is yet another monument testifying to an unsustainable centralized grid that incents corporate destruction of public lands, and ignores the spaces in our cities and already-disturbed lands that are perfectly capable of generating energy from the sun.
- The Ivanpah Solar project literally burns birds to death in mid-flight. The super-heated air above the thousands of mirrors singes the birds' feathers and eyes within seconds, causing them to fall to their death. During initial operational testing so far, over 70 birds have been burned to death or severely injured at the project, including warblers, gnatcatchers, and falcons. Surveys may not be discovering all of the fatalities because of the immense size of the project and potential that scavengers move carcasses before they are found.
- The Ivanpah Solar project has displaced or killed over 173 desert tortoises since construction began, according to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The impacts far exceeded estimates during initial environmental review for the project.
- BrightSource and NRG have spent over 22 million dollars caring for tortoises displaced by the massive project. If the project were not built on prime desert tortoise habitat, that money could have been invested in more clean energy.
- The project was built on approximately 5.6 square miles of high quality desert tortoise habitat that the Fish and Wildlife Service warned also serves as a fragile and important connectivity corridor for the species, maintaining its resilience in the face of climate change and other human threats. Environmental groups asked BrightSource Energy to consider alternative project locations and designs, but the company ignored these alternatives.
- NRG and BrightSource like to point out that the nearby Primm golf course uses more water than the Ivanpah Solar project, which uses dry cooling technology. While this is true, the Ivanpah Solar project has destroyed several times more habitat than the golf course, and adds to the cumulative demand on local groundwater sources.
- NRG and Brightsource have also argued that the Ivanpah Valley is of no ecological value because there is already a golf course, a highway, and gambling outpost that disrupt the desert habitat. However, the Ivanpah Solar project more than doubles the amount of development in the valley. Applying this twisted evaluation of wildlands to other beloved natural treasures would mean places like the Yosemite Valley are not worth saving, since roads, shops and hotels also dot that landscape. If the Ivanpah Solar project were actually built in Yosemite, it would consume nearly the entire valley.
- The Ivanpah Solar project is built far outside of the "Solar Energy Zones" identified by the Department of Interior in 2012 as appropriate places for solar projects on public lands. The Fish and Wildlife Service and many conservation groups have determined that the Ivanpah Valley is an inappropriate place for utility-scale energy development.
[Click on image to expand] The Ivanpah Solar project (in red) is multiple times larger than the Primm Golf course, and extends deep into prime desert tortoise habitat. |

Brook Mollington Banastre Hotel and Spa
All staff extremely helpful and courteous
pleasantly surprised
wasn't expecting much as previous reviews were quite negative, however we were happy with the accomodation it was clean and comfortable, we had a lovely evening meal and breakfast in the restaurant, the spa changing areas were in need of updating but the area around the pool and gym were clean and usable.
Fur coat and no undies
This is a tired washed out shocker of a place.
The price tag (I paid £466 for two nights) suggests luxury. The reality is budget with bolser wood. To add insult to injury I am still waiting to see if the brand new swimming costume my daughter left in her room on Sunday ever turns up or whether the staff consider such things to be part of their wages. I don't think I could feel more ripped off.

Disappointing and mis-sold on star rating
This was sold as a four star hotel which was totally untrue.
The room was dark (we had to have the light on all the time) and damp smelling. The corridor blocked and scruffy (no help with the cases). The tap broken, the shower scalded me, the toiletries were two large, refilled (clearly many times) bottles and no brand I'd heard of. One of the sauna's was also broken. The breakfast was ordinary, the bread was just sliced packet loaf. So disappointing as it was my birthday. On complaining we were initially offered 50% a further visit, but this was not good enough, I pointed out I wouldn't expect what we got from a 2 star hotel, never mind a 4 star one. As i stood my ground we were offered £50 off, but this, quite honestly, was still far too expensive.

Poor feedback
We booked a family room and were given two rooms instead as they'd been over booked.
Room 28 had a broken window pane and insecure window which I highlighted to the duty manager and he was already aware . Wet paint taped around the room door frame which hadn't been removed. Reception was chaotic and dis organised, I heard other guests complaining.

Very disappointed
Nothing like the pictures.
Friendly and accommodating staff but the hotel is tired and the rooms are small and dated.

service slow
At check in, staff member started to serve me then felt they needed to answer the ringing phone this is not very good practice as this delays both parties and will not give you the full and undivided attention that is required.
Room tired and doors require effort to close as this was apparent when fellow occupants return to there room at 11.00. Breakfast upon waiting 5 mins for a member of staff decided to miss and go to Starbucks up the road. check out was slow stood around waiting, decided to load car then came back to another wait, would have left but required VAT invoice. Felt the hotel was not up to current standards of service.

70th birthday
Room adequate quite clean problem was it had an adjoining door to next room (locked) but every word from adjoining room could be heard.
Breakfast poor on first morning (sausage and bacon cremated) dinner good. Main problem was I paid for the room and meal by visa at checkout but when i checked my acc. I had been charged again for the room and then for the meal. Although the charge had not been taken from my acc. It had been allocated meaning that money was not available to use until it had been reinstated which took 7 days. If this is brook hotels policy they have lost a repeat customer.

Definitely not a 4* hotel
The hotel doesn't look very good from the outside but quite a nice bar area and garden.
The rooms however are very dated and definitely need sprucing up a bit. We had no hot water in the morning to shower, we were offered another room to go and get washed in over the other side of the hotel but with a 1 year old, it was a lot of hassle. I was expecting a lot more from a 4 star hotel. The pool area is also not very clean and was cold. Wouldn't recommend this place at all, looks better in the pictures that it is in real life.

Giant python sets records in Florida
More than 17-feet-long and carrying 87 eggs, a record-breaking Burmese python's discovery emphasizes Florida's pesky invasive reptile and amphibian problem. Pet owners dumping unwanted exotics into the wild play a role in the invasion.

A Burmese python found in Florida set records as the largest such snake ever captured in the state at 17-feet, 7-inches (5.36 metres) and the most prolific reproducer carrying a record load of 87 eggs, according to researchers.
The previous Florida record setters were a 16-foot, 8-inch python (5.08 metres) and 85 eggs.
"It was huge," said Paul Ramey, spokesman for the Florida Natural History Museum at the University of Florida in Gainesville. To perform the necropsy, researchers "had to put three tables together and it took at least four people to pick it up and get it on the tables," Ramey said on Tuesday.
Burmese pythons are native to Southeast Asia. The snake was captured in April in the Everglades National Park by researchers studying the impact of the pythons on native species. The eggs were discovered on Friday, university researchers said in a statement.
Ramey said Burmese pythons, which have no natural predators in Florida, became established in the state in 2000. Previous studies determined that Florida has the world's worst invasive reptile and amphibian problem, he said.
Part of the python invasion is attributed to pet owners dumping exotic pets when the creatures become too difficult to manage at home.
Ramey said Burmese pythons in the wild in Asia are known to reach 20 to 25 feet (6 to 7.6 metres) in length, so researchers fully expect that eventually someone will find a 20-foot Burmese python in Florida.
After researchers finish with the snake, the skeleton or skin of its nearly 165-pound (75-kg) carcass is expected to be placed on public display, Ramey said.

Gosh, you're a rude one, aren't you. Can't you even spare a little energy to be civil?I almost can't be bothered replying to this obviously fight-picking post, but I will point out that I did not say that no-one on this board can answer her query. I said that an Arabic-language website would be a good place to look. I've been posting on this website for a long time and I've never seen a regular with any expertise in Arabic names - hence my reccommendation that expertise could be sought elsewhere.
So unless you have some answers for this young lady - which you clearly don't - stop cluttering up the thread with irrelevancies.

He was dearly beloved by his mother, Lady Ursa, and badly treated by his own father, Fire Lord Ozai. His father always compared him with his sister, Azule, a prodigy firebender. "Azula is born lucky, Zuko is lucky to be born."His mother sacrificed herself for his sake and her last word for him were "Never forget who you are" which refers to his lineage with Avatar Roku.
