Lionel Messi breaks Muller's record in Barcelona's 2-1 win over Betis
Zee India Reports, "Seville: Lionel Messi became the player to score the most goals in a calendar year after his double led Barcelona to a 2-1 win over Betis in their Liga clash at Estadio Benito Villamarin on Sunday.
The Argentine etched his name in football history with his 85th and 86th goals for club and country in 2012, breaking the 40-year-old record of 85 set by Gerd Muller in 1972, while he also surpassed Cesar Rodriguez as the all-time highest league goalscorer for the Blaugrana with his 192nd Liga goal.
Messi`s brace put Barcelona two goals up after 25 minutes, but it was far from plain sailing for the Catalans, who were given a thorough examination by a spirited home side that pulled a goal back through Ruben Castro shortly before the break.
The attacking pressure from Betis saw them create a number of opportunities in the second-half, hitting the woodwork twice, but Barca managed to ride their luck and grind out the victory, which gives them their 14th win in 15 league games, and restores their six-point lead over Atletico Madrid at the top of the table.Messi shook off a knee injury sustained during the 0-0 draw against Benfica in midweek to start in a much-changed side from Tito Villanova, who retained only two players from his XI against the Portuguese outfit.
Betis fired an early warning shot with just over two minutes on the clock, after Joel Campbell picked out Salva Sevilla inside the area, but his header was placed too close to Victor Valdes.
Barca were handed a blow after 10 minutes as Cesc Fabregas, who appeared to be struggling, was withdrawn, with Alexis Sanchez coming on in his place.
But the visitors did not break stride, and with just over a quarter of an hour gone, a driving run from Messi saw him surge past multiple defenders on his way into the area, where he finished calmly into the bottom corner to equal Muller's record.
Betis nearly conceded again within moments of the restart, but were thankful to goalkeeper Adrian for holding his nerve to tip a clever lob from Andres Iniesta over the crossbar.
Their resistance would not last long though, and when a one-two saw Iniesta tee up Messi inside the area with a delightful back-heel, the Argentine's finish for his 86th goal in 2012, and his place in the footballing pantheon, was inevitable.
Adrian was called into action again to deny Xavi from 20 yards out, but just when it seemed like Barca were set to run away with the game, Betis managed to pull a goal back shortly before half-time.
The Blaugrana's defence was nowhere near as organised as their attack, as Jordi Alba failed to read the offside trap set by the rest of the back-line, allowing Castro in behind to slot comfortably past Valdes.
Pepe Mel's team started the second period strongly, and behind a raucous home support controlled possession and created chances as they pressed the Barca goal.
Valdes nearly gifted Betis an equaliser shortly after the interval after spilling a harmless cross from Sevilla, before recovering just in time to claw the ball around the post ahead of the onrushing Castro.
And with 20 minutes remaining, a wayward defensive header from Javier Mascherano from a Betis corner saw the ball rebound off the inside of the post and into the grateful arms of Valdes.
Matters were whipped into a frenzy with a flurry of chances during the closing stages. First, Pedro was slipped into space by Sanchez, but he could not direct his finish home as Adrian was able to block.
Pozuelo then crashed a 20-yard half-volley off the woodwork, a let-off which was soon matched by Barca as Messi blasted a shot on the turn onto the post, before Alba directed the rebound onto the crossbar from point-blank range.
Thiago thenblasted a shot into orbit from eight yards out as the scoreline somehow remained intact. The final whistle signalled three points to the Catalans and ensured they restored their six-point lead over Atletico Madrid, while Betis sit in fifth spot."

Quality Evaluation of Health Answers in Social Q&A: Socio-Emotional Support and Evaluation Criteria
Adam Worrall, Sanghee Oh and Yong Jeong Yi
Monday, 6:30pm
The quality of health information shared in the context of social and emotional support is of critical concern, but little is known about the quality of health information in community contexts and about socio-emotional factors that impact evaluation of the quality of health information. This poster reports on a study of the quality of health answers in social Q&A sites, focusing on the socio-emotional reactions of and evaluation criteria discussed by three groups of evaluators: librarians, nurses, and site users. Forty participants from each group evaluated 10 answers each drawn from the Health categories of Yahoo! Answers. Results identified five common expressed emotions: fear or concern, confidence (or lack thereof), surprise, trust, and empathy. Five evaluation criteria and indicators were also identified: sources, subjectivity, style, completeness, and accuracy. Our results illuminate key differences in social and emotional factors across the three groups and the need for appropriate balance in educational efforts for evaluation of and the provision of health information.

Hybrid PoplarPopulus deltoides x Populus nigra
Hybrid poplars are the thoroughbreds of the tree world. Their claim to fame is speed, with vertical growth of 5–8' per year not being uncommon. This cottonless hybrid can be harvested for firewood in five to seven years, making it a sustainable source. It also works well for visual screens and hillside or sand dune stabilization. While nice for quick shade, the hybrid poplar should only be planted in landscape where occasional limb breakage is not a problem.

If exercise is the cure for all ills …January 29, 2011 at 4:22 pm | Posted in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) | 4 Comments
… then I should be feeling pretty spry after today. If, on the other hand, pacing it is the answer to all life's little problems, then I might be in trouble!
After pretty much an entire week of migraines and RA pains, to the extent that I had most of Thursday and Friday 'off sick', I woke up feeling relatively chipper this morning, so hubby and I (OK, mostly hubby) have put together two new bookcases for the living room. Sitting around watching hubby build bookcases (sorry, I mean helping) was relatively stress and exercise free, but then we decided we had to move some of the bookcases we already had, and also get rid of a load of old videos since our video recorder/player has finally given up the ghost and there's not much point replacing it now. So … a trip into town lugging a load of videos (and I do mean a LOAD) of videos to one of the local charity shops, and then back to move more books and bookcases … only to discover that the new one we wanted to put by the window didn't quite fit … more moving, more book shuffling … lots more dusting! More carting books and up and down stairs. We've tried about four different combinations of bookcases now … which is a lot of yanking bits of furniture about – not just the bookcases but everything else in the room, in order to be able to reach the bookcases.
We just decided to have a nice cup of tea (very English) and take a break from the chaos by coming upstairs to the computers. Both living room and dining room are currently uninhabitable and we have to go down soon and move one bookcases that we've already emptied, moved and refilled once!
Strangely I feel pretty OK .. but I wouldn't like to make any predictions about tomorrow at the moment!

Renaissance classics: Tallis Scholars back in town
The university community, or should I say the female section of that community, loves those a cappella groups. It's a predominantly male dominated sport– get some friends of yours together, start humming a bass line, and boom, you're in.
Of course I'm glossing over the hard work most a cappella groups put into their covers of Radiohead classics, but something always struck me a little funny about the quarter-back-like aura that purveyors of a instrument-less tune seem to hold on campus. Maybe they would get more respect from me and others of a similar mind-set if they were to take a lesson or two from the Tallis Scholars, the world-renowned vocal ensemble performing at UVA's Cabell Hall Auditorium Tuesday night, December 3.
Taking its name from Thomas Tallis (1505-1585), the most renowned English composer of the Renaissance, the Tallis Scholars were formed in 1973 by their director, Peter Phillips. Phillips brought together "choral scholars from Oxford and Cambridge Chapel Choirs" to form the Tallis Scholars, whose performances of Renaissance sacred music (music that was specifically written for use in church services) quickly established them at the forefront of this genre.
The Renaissance brought about numerous societal changes– one of the most important for the arts was the recognizing of artists as not just learned craftsmen, but inspired geniuses. This new recognition seemed to spur composers to even greater heights, resulting in more expressive work.
One of the new tricks of the trade was polyphony (though introduced in the 11th century), "music consisting of several (two or more) melodic lines, each having individual significance and independence," which became more complex. A form of polyphony known as imitation– "where one musical line shares or imitates the same musical theme of the proceeding line– to introduce complexities by a simpler means" became popular, and can be found in works by English composer William Byrd (1543-1623), a featured composer at Tuesday night's performance. The other featured composers will be William Cornysh (1465-1523), Robert White (1538-1574– he died of the plague), and Robert Parsons (1530-1572– thought to have drowned), all English as well.
Just listening to a recording of the ensemble performing "In dulci jubilo," a Christmas carol by Michael Praetorius (1571-1621), and actually one of the simpler Renaissance pieces, has filled me with a new respect for vocal-only work. Even if you don't believe, there is something wondrous about so many voices singing together, filling the air with harmonies and divergent melody lines, something that takes your breath away.
The Tallis Scholars are at Cabell Hall Auditorium at 8:15pm on December 3. $22-orchestra; $18-loge & balcony; and $9-students, partial-view seats, and standing room only.

The 4.1pc month-on-month leap is the biggest recorded since 2002, with new sellers typically asking £233,252 for their homes, Rightmove found.
The "surprisingly strong spring price pump" could have been triggered by rising seller confidence due to a lack of homes for sale in more affluent areas boosting buyer demand, the study said.
London asking prices, at £449,252, are within 1pc of last October's all-time high, but the number of new listings is down by 9pc on February 2011, indicating seller shortages will help push up prices in the capital this year, the report said.
Rightmove suggested the market generally has taken on a new "strange normality" of low sales volumes but relatively stable prices.
Rightmove director Miles Shipside said: "We're seeing a strong spring bounce in asking prices this year, but the ball is still a lot smaller than it was before the credit crunch as market volumes are constrained.
"The biggest jump in new sellers' asking prices for nearly 10 years indicates there is pricing power if you are selling the right type of property in the right place where enough potential buyers have access to funding.
"If your local market does not have those characteristics and your price pump is based on little more than seasonal optimism and an estate agent's hot air, then be prepared for buyer response to be a let down."
This month's strong increase compares with monthly asking price rises of 4.5pc recorded in both February and April 2002. Since 2002, the biggest monthly uplift was 3.6pc in April 2007.
The study said that during the "pre-credit crunch norm", the market would generally accept "spring bounce" asking price hikes if this was matched by a seasonal increase in buyer activity and the finances were there to support it.
But a more uncertain picture has emerged with the UK fragmented into "micro markets", each performing differently, and the strength of London sales boosted by overseas buyer demand has been at odds with much of the rest of the country.
Mr Shipside said there were indications that potential buyers are in a more "positive mindset" this year, with six out of 10 people in a recent study believing the market favours buyers.
The typical number of unsold properties per estate agency branch has fallen to 67, from 75 in October 2011, suggesting buyers are "starting to eat away at the rump of unsold stock," Rightmove said.
The property website experienced record search activity in January, which it put down to "pent up" buyer demand.
Mr Shipside said: "Perhaps some people are adjusting to the realities, opportunities and a strange normality of a low volume but apparently stable property market."
The study also highlighted a widened availability of mortgage deals for would-be buyers, with the number of products requiring a 10pc deposit up by a third on a year ago.
However, the Bank of England expects lenders will tighten their borrowing criteria this year amid weak economic conditions and the current stamp duty holiday for first-time buyers due to end next month.
Mr Shipside said: "If your mindset is that lenders do not want to lend, then you may not want to bother sourcing finance and face potential rejection.
"(But) some agents report that this recent higher product profile from lenders has given some previously disenfranchised buyers new hope."
The study measured asking prices for homes advertised on Rightmove.co.uk, covering around 90pc of the UK market, between January 8 and February 11.

IRS paid $53 million to whistleblowers in 2013
The Internal Revenue Service says it paid whistleblowers a total of $53 million last year for turning in tax cheats.
In an annual report to Congress, the agency said Friday it paid out 122 awards. That's an average award of nearly $435,000.
The tips led the IRS to collect more than $367 million in taxes, interest and penalties.
In general, whistleblowers can claim awards if they provide information that helps the IRS collect more than $2 million in taxes, penalties and interest. But it can take years to collect awards.
Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa helped write the whistleblower law. Grassley applauded the payouts but said he worries the slow pace will discourage whistleblowers.
The report says the IRS received 9,268 whistleblower claims last year, up slightly from 2012.

I got a container with HBox Layout.
The container contains 3 items: One titlebar (docked to the top) with a button, a panel with some html content and one panel named as the "Navigation panel".
With the button on titlebar pressed, the Navigation Panel shall slide into the screen and take (according to HBox Layout) some of the left part of the screen (width: 200).
After the button was pressed again, the navigation panel shall slide away from the screen (using hide() method) and release the space for the other panel.
The result that was expected
- The navigation panel shall slide from it's position to the left side outside of the screen (method: navigationPanel.hide({type: 'slide', direction: 'left'});
The result that occurs instead
- The navigation panel gets slided out, but the animation starts at the right side of the screen instead from the current position of tthe panel.
Steps to reproduce the problem
- Slide a container that uses less than 100% of the screen width from an hbox outside of the screen using the hide() method OR

I usually end each "7 Things" post with a lighter item. Having beaten through my backlog of resources, there are a bunch of visual links left over. So, here's a post of pure fluffy desserts. All images are clickable for more information.
First, camels:
and zebras:
These are now a part of the "Too True to be Good" gallery.
More information about these on Geeks3D.
Crayola's Law is that the number of crayon colors doubles every 28 years:
I just plain liked this animated Sierpinski triangle someone used as a profile image (thanks, Evan):
Nice concept, the equations of art:
Here's an art something (not embedded here, you actually have to click), but I don't have the OCD needed to see the image hidden.
Perhaps not massively visual, but amazing nonetheless, various prime number calculators run using the Game of Life. Here's the Mersenne prime generator:
I'm starting to believe everything can make a pixel. Here's coffee:
And rice plants (thanks, Doug):
For a finish, here's a history of 100 years of film VFX in five minutes:
Well, wait, there's one more thing… Naty and I love the realistic CG in this piece, The Third & The Seventh. I'm not going to embed it here; follow the link and definitely watch it fullscreen. More amazing still, it's the work of one guy, Alex Roman. The only elements that are not CG are the photographer, the pigeons, the time-lapsed sky and growing flowers, and the jet. There's a compositing breakdown video of various scenes, showing the techniques used. That said, Naty likes it but for my tastes it's pretty boring to watch for more than half a minute, as most CG demos are (jaded? Maybe; mostly, I just like plot).
If your interest wanes, skip to 8 minutes in (well, you can't skip ahead with Vimeo; just let it load and come back later). Perhaps that's the best way to appreciate the clip: play it as a loop and look at it now and then, in small doses. There's a heavy hand with the focus/depth-of-field effect at times, but in one sense I do like seeing this effect overused: it's like watching CPU cycles burn before my very eyes, knowing how much the algorithm costs. Last niggle (and I should probably be soundly thrashed with a riding crop for noting these things, but it stuck out for me): the wind turbines turn backwards. Quibbles aside, the images here are so much better than any I will ever make that I'm a total admirer of it on the "technical chops" and "incredible dedication" levels.

Global Diary: Cambodia
Mariane Pearl in Phnom Penh at the start of her yearlong journey for Glamour.
*Editor's note: In May 2014, Newsweek reported that Somaly Mam, the founder and face of the Somaly Mam Foundation, had fabricated some aspects of her personal history, including some of her own experiences with sex trafficking. She subsequently stepped down from the Somaly Mam Foundation. That foundation and dozens of others continue to support the battle against the very real problem of sex trafficking worldwide.*It's noon and the sun is glinting off the tin roofs of a rundown neighborhood in Phnom Penh, Cambodia's capital city. I am standing outside a barrack built of sticks that seems on the verge of collapse, when a door opens to reveal an unlikely young woman. Haggard from a drunken sleep, she is still wearing bright-red lipstick from the night before and carries an odor of sweat, sperm and filth. Her expression is beyond hatred or submission.
This is my first glimpse into the world of sexual slavery in Cambodia.
I peer into her room, a windowless chamber barely big enough to fit a mattress. The dirt floor is covered with cigarette butts, used condoms and Freedent gum wrappers. There is no furniture aside from her bed—not even a little box where a girl might hide her treasures. Like many of us, I thought I had an image of what prostitution is. But I knew nothing.
I've traveled to Phnom Penh to meet Somaly Mam, who has made it her personal mission to help girls like this. Somaly is on the front line of one of the most important societal battles in Asia and perhaps the world. A former sex worker herself—she was sold into prostitution as a child—she's the cofounder of an aid organization that rescues young women from brothels and then trains them for jobs like weaving and hairdressing. Her group, Acting for Women in Distressing Situations, also known as AFESIP (its acronym in French), has 155 social workers in Cambodia and the neighboring countries of Thailand, Laos and Vietnam. Somaly says the organization has saved 3,000 girls since its founding in 1996.
My visit with Somaly is the first stop in a yearlong journey around the world for Glamour. In this new monthly column, I plan to explore a question that a child could easily ask and an adult could hardly answer: Who changes the world, and how? Senator Robert F. Kennedy once said, "It is from numberless diverse acts of courage and belief that human history is shaped." I hope to meet women who, by challenging their own fate, are shaping our world and helping to write the history of our generation.
On the day in May that I land in Cambodia, Somaly is in the midst of a personal crisis so serious that it is hard to fathom. Her 14-year-old daughter, Ning, has been missing for almost 24 hours. Somaly fears the worst: that Ning has been kidnapped—perhaps by a young man the family knows—and is at risk of being sold to a brothel.
It sounds simply unimaginable. But as Somaly understands so well from her own line of work, tragedies like this are not uncommon here. Girls are regularly abducted, sometimes right off the streets. Such brutality is fallout from decades of war, totalitarianism and genocide. Still deeply bruised from the dictatorship of Pol Pot in the seventies, Cambodia today ranks as one of Southeast Asia's poorest nations, where a human life isn't worth much. Children here are bought and sold into sexual slavery, sometimes by their own parents, for tiny sums of money.
As a result, Cambodia has earned a reputation as one of the worst places in the world for human trafficking. The problem is so severe that Cambodia's government established a special office, the Anti-Human Trafficking and Juvenile Protection Department, devoted to the issue. Sereywath Ek, Cambodian ambassador to the United States, says, "We've made advances," but still the sex trade thrives, fueled by both local men and foreign sex tourists.
The moment Somaly tells me of the unfolding tragedy with her daughter, I understand her fears as if they were my own. Four and a half years ago, my husband, Danny, a journalist, was kidnapped and ultimately killed by Islamist militants in Pakistan. It gives us a strange but undeniable bond that the two of us feel instinctively, and we embrace.
Somaly tells me she is going to meet with the police about the search for her daughter, so I set out to learn more about the sordid world in which she works. It turns out to be surprisingly easy. Far from being hidden, Phnom Penh's brothels operate in the open, some right in the heart of the city, even though prostitution is officially illegal. I travel to one of the sex districts with a team of Somaly's social workers, who are allowed into the brothels by the owners because they bring supplies like condoms, soap and toothpaste.
Thus my encounter with the haggard young woman—I learn that her name is Apov and that she's 22—and her sad little room. As I step outside the brothel, I see a girl with a bandage on her head, stained with iodine. A social worker, Chantha Chhim, asks what happened. The girl points to a metal stool and answers in Khmer, the national language. "A man hit me for talking badly to him," Chantha translates. The girl also has rows of parallel scars on the inside of her arm. "Amphetamine," says Chantha. When girls get high, she explains, they sometimes engage in self-mutilation.
A female pimp reclines nearby in a purple hammock, watching us nonchalantly. As we leave, the girls give us faint, almost apologetic smiles. They service about 15 clients a night, mostly migrant laborers. Men pay the equivalent of a dollar for sex, but most of that money goes into the pimp's pocket. The girls themselves get a salary of about $15 a month, which amounts to mere pennies for each sex act.
The next day, Somaly tells me she has heard no news of Ning, but, she says, the police have made finding her a priority. Somaly's attitude is one of fierce determination, despite the circumstances. "We have work to do," she says. "I need you to see how we are helping girls." So we drive outside the city to an AFESIP center that houses 30 former prostitutes. The eldest is 16, Somaly says, and the youngest, five.
In the car on the way there, Somaly refuses to panic about Ning. Instead we joke around, as if in defiance to despair. "I don't dislike men," Somaly tells me. "I just can't stand most of them."
Her driver smiles. Somaly notices and quickly adds, "He's different," and refers to him as her brother in suffering. Last month, he lost five family members, all in separate car accidents. Suddenly I notice the chaotic traffic swirling around us. A family of five passes us, all riding on a single motorcycle. Bicycle rickshaws weave among buffalo-drawn carts. There is a complete absence of order or logic.
Somaly continues joking. "I fired my last driver because he smelled like garlic," she says. But then her tone changes. "I need a mother," she announces abruptly.
Somaly means that literally. She is in her late thirties, but doesn't know her precise age because she has no information about when or where she was born. Nor does she know her mother. Her earliest memories are of working as a domestic servant for various families in Phnom Penh. Eventually, one of those families sold her to a brothel.
The defining moment in her life came, she says, when she saw a pimp kill one of her best friends in the brothel. Somaly says she looked the girl in the eye as she died, and realized not only that she needed to escape this life, but also to return and save others. She then left prostitution with the help of an aid worker, attended school and eventually married a French citizen, Pierre Legros, with whom she had three children. Together they founded AFESIP, although they are now in the midst of divorcing. "He is a good-hearted man," Somaly says simply, and then sighs with frustration.
When we arrive at the center, Somaly introduces me to Pouv, a 15-year-old former prostitute who is in charge of the cooking. As we approach, Pouv is sitting on the floor skillfully chopping vegetables. Somaly puts a hand on her shoulder, and for a while the only sound is that of a knife on the wooden cutting board. Pouv begins to tell her story, in a low, broken voice. Somaly translates: "She says she was sold by her mother when she was seven. She gripped her mother's ankles and begged her not to leave her with strangers." The price for Pouv: the equivalent of $10.
Somaly continues the tale. First Pouv was "fattened up and given treatments to whiten her skin," a common beauty practice in Asia. Then she was sold to a man who chained her to a bed and raped her until she fainted. Angry, he returned her to the brothel, where she was punished by being held in a chicken cage; the pimps put chili peppers in her vagina and beat her. "She finally broke," Somaly says. "For the next three years, she had up to 30 clients a day."
Somaly says her workers rescued Pouv when she was 10. (The workers, as they make their rounds, keep a constant eye out for very young prostitutes like Pouv. Later they may return, and, in collaboration with the police, rush into a brothel and snatch the girls.) Pouv stares at her feet. I can't help but think about my own young son and the way he trusts me with his entire life. At the very core of Pouv's existence is what feels like the most fundamental form of betrayal—being sold by the woman who brought you life.
Next I meet six-year-old Mou, who has a fever. Somaly tells me that Mou was sold by her family to a man who used her as a sex slave. After consulting a psychic, he decided that she brought bad luck, so he kept her in a cage.
We also meet a new arrival, a girl of about 12. Never before have I seen anyone who has so clearly just been tortured. Her eyes are wide with terror. Somaly asks, "How are you holding up?" The girl tries to answer, but what comes out is something like a distant whistle, or a creaking door.
As we prepare to leave, kids come pouring out of a nearby school. A dozen girls in navy skirts and white blouses gather around Somaly like butterflies. They, too, are rescuees, who are learning to read and write. A few of them press into Somaly's hand folded pieces of paper. "Those are their most hidden secrets," Somaly says. The notes tell of wounds that have been buried so deep, they are not suited for spoken words. Somaly understands their pain. "Part of me hasn't healed and never will," she confides. But I can see how the girls give her hope. There is no telling how many girls she will inspire—and how many of them will rescue their sisters and ultimately change the fate of the next generation.
On the drive back to the city, Somaly gets a call from the police. They've tracked Ning to Battambang, a province not far from the border of Thailand that Somaly says is a notorious human trafficking center. This is actually good news because many girls disappear into this world without a trace. Somaly says she must go there immediately. "Keep visiting the girls," she urges me. "Please."
That night I head out with the social workers to learn about another harsh reality of Cambodia's sex trade—HIV. An estimated 29 percent of sex workers here have the disease. We drive to one of the city's sex spots known as the "White Building" because it is dominated by a squalid white apartment house where prostitutes gather. When we arrive, we see girls who can't be older than 14 seated out front on colorful plastic chairs, waiting for clients.
The street is lively in unexpected ways. There are stalls selling mangos and kebabs, and naked infants are playing. Yet the atmosphere feels dangerous. Men on motorcycles circle the street—it's unclear if they are pimps or prospective clients, but either way they're a discomforting presence. Adding to the bizarre tableau, a skinny man approaches a girl in a pleated skirt, and a mysterious exchange occurs: He slaps her, and she gives him a single bill.
In a nearby building, Chantha, the social worker, is teaching HIV prevention. She has forgotten to bring her wooden penis model, so she uses a pencil instead. The condom hangs ridiculously on the tiny pretend phallus, but no one laughs. Too many of the girls have lost friends to HIV.
The following day, a social worker calls me to say that Somaly has been reunited with her daughter. The police found Ning, who had apparently been drugged, in a bar in Battambang. She said she had been raped by her three captors—the young man who the family knows, along with two others.
When I see mother and daughter again, both are deeply shaken. "I think they kidnapped Ning in retaliation for my work," Somaly tells me. I see that this is another defining moment in her life. She is deeply hurt. But pausing in her work is not an option. She must keep going—for the sake of all the girls she is helping. For the sake of her daughter. She tells me how earlier, she took Ning's beautiful, sad face in both of her hands. "You've suffered what you've suffered," she told her. "Now you take that pain and you help others."
When I leave that evening, Somaly smiles at me. Her smile serves as a quiet triumph over despair and human cruelty. I think back to something she told me at the beginning of my visit. "I am not sure what being happy really means," she said. "But when I cuddle with the girls, giving them the love I never received, then I do feel happy."

It's a big day for prize announcements: The Literature Prize announced its formation and sponsor Wednesday at a news conference at the British Library in London. The idea for the prize came into being when a group of British intellectuals took umbrage at the direction they saw the Booker Prize taking -- they saw it leaning toward popular fiction rather than literary fiction.
If only we in America got quite so worked up over big literary prizes not being literary enough.
Born of intellectual frustration, the Literature Prize is no small potatoes: The prize is about $60,000. And it will no longer be called the Literature Prize, which was kind of a placeholder. It's now the Folio Prize, named for its sponsor, the Folio Society, a publisher of special editions of classic literature.
The first Folio Prize will be awarded in 2014. It's open to a work of literary fiction written in English, by an author from any nation, published in the
In its announcement, the Folio Prize explained how the prizes will be awarded. It has gathered more than 100 authors and critics as members of the Folio Academy, which will be part of the judging process.
Academy members include Nobel laureate J.M. Coetzee; Booker Prize winners Margaret Atwood, John Banveille, Peter Carey, Ian McEwan, Michael Ondaatje and Salman Rushdie; critics Geoff Dyer and Elif Batuman; Paris Review editor Lorin Stein, Granta editor
For the curious, here's how it will work. A panel of five judges will be randomly selected from the academy, according to certain rules -- two must not be from the U.K., and no more than three can be of the same gender. A prospective judge can decline to serve if reading 80 books that year might be too much.
The plan is to have a pool of 60 books nominated by members of the Academy -- any member who isn't a judge can nominate up to three books. The 60 books that receive the most votes in the prize's ranking scheme will be considered by the judges. Then the judges are expected to call in an additional 20 books for consideration. There will be a shortlist -- no longlist -- and an annual award.
The judges for the first Folio Prize will be announced in June or July; the award will be presented in March 2014.

(Lebanon) -- A Lebanon County school district has approved a $265,000 settlement in a lawsuit filed over excessive fines imposed in truancy cases.
A federal judge in November ruled the Lebanon School District had improperly fined parents. State law limits such truancy fines to $300, but some of the district's fines exceeded $1,000. The judge found the district levied 935 fines that exceeded the cap from 2004 to 2009.
Part of the settlement involves reimbursing the plaintiffs' lawyers, which amounted to $147,000. The district has also agreed to refund any fines it collected above the $300 per citation maximum. The agreement doesn't require the district to admit any wrongdoing.
An attorney for the plaintiffs says he's pleased with the settlement, which now moves to federal court for approval.

WITTON Albion have been picked to take part in a pilot scheme for teenagers that combines playing competitive football with studying for a qualification.
The Northern Premier League Academy, to be made up of 10 clubs, starts a two-year run in September.
Boys, aged between 16 and 18, can attempt to impress coaches during a trial at Wincham Park on Tuesday, from 6pm, with more planned in the coming weeks.
The programme will complement, not replace, Albion's existing youth team.
"This will give the club another string to its bow," said chairman Mark Harris.
"It fits in with what we're all about, which is making a contribution to the community around us.
"If we can find talented young players to send up through our structure, then that's an added bonus.
"Primarily though, this is about providing an opportunity for school leavers to make a first step to a career in the semi-professional game and beyond.
"Not every student will go on to make a contribution as a player. However, the course can play a role in introducing the next generation of administrators and volunteers into the sport – we hope – at non-league level.
The project, sanctioned by the Football Association, is the first of its kind in the English game.
An initial intake of 200 students, spread evenly between the participating clubs, will study for a BTEC Level 3 in Sport.
Those chosen to represent Witton will work with an FA-licensed coach at the club's home ground, in Northwich, for 20 hours a week.
They will play some of their matches there, with others planned for a pitch nearby.
Harris said: "I'm confident our Academy team can fit into our existing structure.
"If the lads are good enough, then there will be a chance for them to play in our youth side which has enjoyed success under Mick Duckett."
Indeed, Witton lost to eventual winners Warrington Town at the semi-finals stage of last season's Cheshire FA Youth Cup.

Milani Liquid Metal Nail Lacquer Collection
Melt Down, Melt With U, Metal Gear, Melt In the Sun, Molten Rock, Hot Metal
Milani Liquid Metal Intense Color Nail Lacquer Collection
This six-shaded limited edition collection is perfect for summer, and it's even better for the nail polish addict on a budget. Each polish is $4.49 and available at CVS through July 2010.
- Melt Down is a deep ruby red base with flecks of brighter ruby red glitter-shimmer. When you move your hands, you can also see a glimmer of a coppery-red shimmer, too. It only needed two coats.
- Melt With U is a rich, liquid lava orange-red with orange shimmer. It only needed two coats.
- Metal Gear is fantastic tangerine orange with flecks of gold and orange glitter-shimmer. It keeps the theme going — just two coats here.
- Melt In the Sun is a sunrise gold with flecks of brighter gold and deeper amber gold. For some reason, I didn't snap a photo of this shade with flash, so I'll describe it instead — brighter, lighter yellow gold with a metallic flash. I found this one to be more of a three-coater.
- Molten Rock is a deep sea blue with just a touch of darkened teal and lighter blue-teal glitter-shimmer. I thought this shade looked particularly metallic under bright lights. Just two coats here.
- Hot Metal is a reddened purple with brighter fuchsia-pink and deeper violet purple shimmer strewn through the pinky-purple base. This is such a pretty shade, but it was the most troublesome of the six. I found you had to use at least three coats, but those who use thinner coats may find a fourth necessary. The base color is a lot redder than I expected, and it almost looked jelly-ish, but it's not quite.
Overall, I really enjoyed these! They were easy to apply — just did my "Temptalia" method (LOL!) and didn't encounter any streakiness, patchiness, or issues with getting the shimmer/glitter to go on evenly. This feels like a microglitter to me, rather than a shimmer or a glitter. They dry pretty smooth, even without a top coat, but they lose some of the glossiness (but not all of it).
Some of these had more of a metallic look than others, but I don't think any of these are true metallics–which isn't a bad thing, since many metallics show glaring brushstrokes–in formula. They do flash a bit metallic-like though, especially Metal Gear, Melt In the Sun, and Molten Rock.
The formula felt thinner than the average polish, but five of the six shades had no pigmentation issues (only Hot Metal was iffy by three coats)–four of the six needed just two coats for rich, opaque color.
Have you spotted these at your local CVS yet? Any catch your eye?

Restoring Our Heritage of Property Rights
America's Founders created a system of government designed to protect property rights. The Founders were influenced by the 17th century philosopher John Locke, who held that everyone who labored had a natural right to property. Property rights, he wrote, reward effort and reduce conflict. Preserving "lives, liberties, and estates" is "the great and chief end" of government.

Authorities are searching for a 19-year-old Arizona State University student who went missing Friday night, the Tempe Police Department said.
Jack Culolias was last seen leaving Cadillac Ranch in Tempe Marketplace around 11 p.m. on Nov. 30.
"Apparently Jack's mother found what she believes to be a shoe of Jack's down here by [Tempe Town Lake] and right now we are currently trying to find out more information on that," said Tempe Police Sgt. Mike Pooley.
Culolias was with other students from an ASU fraternity before he disappeared.
Culolias is described as standing six feet tall with black hair and brown eyes. He was last seen wearing a black t-shirt with "You'll shoot your eye out" printed on the front with a long-sleeved white shirt with gray or black horizontal stripes and blue jeans.

Hi everyone
I've been looking to get an android phone for a while now, but at the moment I have no idea what to do.
If I go for the nexus it will be cheaper and I will get quick upgrades. Also lack of LTE doesn't bother me because I live in the UK.
The HTC have been making some really good flagships at the moment and the M7 looks like it will be a beast of a phone and a 1080p screen sounds really appealing to me.
Similarly other phones coming out next year like the Galaxy S4 are rumoured to have 1080p screens and great specs.
So my real dilemma is should I get the Nexus 4 now (when it comes back in stock) or should I wait till next years phones get released.
I'd appreciate your input :)

Pen-ek Ratanaruang's Mon-Rak Transistor is part of a mini-wave of Thai films that have won acclaim on the film festival circuit in recent years. Pan (Suppakorn Kitsuwan), a young man with dreams of pop stardom, enjoys a simple life with his new wife, Sadaw (Siriyakorn Pukkavesa), in their country village.
The two are separated, however, when Pan is drafted into the army. Unhappy on the front, Pan soon goes AWOL to join a pop music troupe and pursue his dreams of becoming a singer. Meanwhile, the pining Sadaw manages to track her husband down just as he gets his big break.
Their reunion proves short-lived when a mishap forces Pan to go on the run from the law. After a detour working at a sugar cane farm, Pan ends up begging on the streets of Bangkok and eventually lands in jail. Having all but given up on Pan, Sadaw falls for the charms of a traveling salesman. Years pass and Pan is finally released from prison.
Chastened by his experiences in the city, he returns home to Sadaw for an unexpected and tearful reunion. Featuring songs by Surapol Sombatcharoen, a popular Thai country singer from the 1960s, this bittersweet musical comedy won several Thai film industry awards in 2001.

It's a good thing I like the Muppets, because there was no escaping them Thursday on the NFL Network.
Ads for their movie, "The Muppets" were all over the screen as sponsor of the NFL Network's "Gameday" show that started at 10 a.m. from Baltimore's M&T Bank Stadium. And then, Kermit and the gang were back as sponsor of the pregame show at 8 p.m. Every time I looked at the screen Thursday, I saw a furry, crazed character.
But that's OK, and not just because the Muppets make me smile. They paid a big part of the cost of bringing viewers a day and night of high-energy, holiday-themed, focused and informed TV football Thursday. In fact, overall, the NFL Network delivered a telecast that was in a league with NBC's "Sunday Night Football," and that is as good as TV football gets.
Much praise to Rich Eisen, Deion Sanders, Steve Mariucci, Marshall Faulk and Michael Irvin for their endurance if nothing else. They did 2 and ½ hours live Thursday morning on the air, and rarely faltered. And they were still bringing their A-games to the screen at 8 p.m. as the NFL Network cameras and microphones skillfully captured the intensity and excitement at the downtown stadium after a week of unbelievable build-up for a Thanksgiving Night showdown between the conference-leading teams of coaches John and Jim Harbaugh. The Ravens won 16 to 6.
Sanders was at his ebullient best whether joking in the morning show about his fear of "getting shanked" by Oakland Raiders fans when he went through the airport there for things he was saying about that team, or bringing an insider's locker-room knowledge to what linebacker Ray Lewis means to the Ravens.
The Eisen-Sanders-Mariucci-Faulk-Irvin crew had a great post-game interview with Terrell Suggs, who was named winner of the "Pudding Pie Award" for his outstanding play, and one reason for the linebacker's expansive answers clearly was the respect he has for Sanders as a former teammate.
If Sanders gets an "A" for enthusiasm, Eisen gets a grade of "A-plus" for stamina. But more importantly, he also sets a smart tone for the shows he hosts without being pretentious.
How many other hosts could have worked a reference to Omar (Michael K. Williams) from "The Wire" into their commentary as the screen filled with an Inner Harbor skyline shot of Baltimore? And how many show hosts would be willing to let themselves be mocked as he was when the producers showed video of Eisen trying to dance and compared it with that of Sanders, Irvin and Faulk making some real moves? His self-deprecation is refreshing in the sea of jock and coach egos.
Most impressive was the way the producers turned around images and sounds shot for future installments of NFL Films and "Soundfx." If the sideline shot and sound of Terrell Suggs urging his teammates to "let the world know your name tonight" didn't get you amped up just before kickoff, you had to be asleep after eating too much turkey.
The real surprise of the day and night for me was the game coverage featuring Brad Nessler doing play-by-play and Mike Mayock as analyst. From the very first series, Mayock was crisp, clear and confident in explaining the game like no one this side of Chris Collinsworth.
At the start of the game, he zeroed in the matchup the Ravens were forcing with an outside linebacker on Anquan Boldin – saying the 49ers were going to lose that one all night if they didn't adjust (they did after three completions). And the producers did a superb job of instantly turning around video of the completions to show the linebacker a step behind Boldin on his first catch.
Maybe it was because he agreed with my sense of what I saw on the screen, but I also liked Mayock's willingness to call it like he saw it when it came to penalties – even if he was in disagreement with the referees. He did that on a "blocking from behind" call that went against the Ravens on a first half kickoff.
Mayock constantly delineated what went right and wrong with "point of attack" blocks made and missed on both sides of the line. His explanation and accompanying video of a four-yard loss by the Ravens who had been on the 49ers one yard line in the second quarter was textbook.
And I absolutely loved the way he broke down a running play by the 49ers, saying, "Hey Brad, did that look familiar to you? It's the old Green Bay Packers sweep."
Indeed it was, right out of Vince Lombardi's playbook, and Nessler was immediately calling out the names of Fuzzy Thurston and Jerry Kramer, the great guards leading the way for Jim Taylor and Paul Hornung on those Packers' plays.
"You got a trapper and a wrapper," Mayock said as the video showed the pulling guards ala Thurston and Kramer.
There were flaws, of course. Mayock and Nessler were shown during the morning show in a canned interview that looked to have been taped the night before with them in parkas in front of a fireplace. It was stupid and lazy to air it with the weather being so fine and warm downtown at M&T. If you are going to go prime time, go all out. Get up and do a live shot that doesn't look like you're in Alaska when the temperature is headed toward 60 degrees in the city you are visiting.
But overall, the producers did a fine job of giving viewers a feel for the Baltimore and the excitement in the city for this prime-time matchup.
Crews went out to venues like the National Aquarium, and the images they captured were used as the cablecast went from game coverage to commercial and back to game. The aerial shots made Baltimore look all twinkly, bright and light on the holiday night.
The NFL Network gang got it: Omar and "The Wire" are only a part of Baltimore – not all of it. That's an insight often lost on out-of-town cameras.

Configure Static Routes In Debian or Red Hat Enterprise Linuxlast updated in Categories CentOS, Debian Linux, Linux, Networking, RedHat/Fedora Linux, Suse Linux, Ubuntu Linux
Static routes improves overall performance of your network (especially bandwidth saving). They are also useful in stub networks (i.e. there is only one link to the network). For example, each LAN (located at different offices) is connected to HQ IDC (Internet data center) using single T1/LL/Wan links.
For example under Red Hat/Fedora Linux you can add static router for eth0 network interface by editing /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-eth0 file. Under Debian Linux add static route by editing /etc/network/interface file.

caps (audio plugin suite for LADSPA)
CAPS, the C* Audio Plugin Suite, is a collection of refined LADSPA audio
plugins capable of (and mainly intended for) realtime operation. The suite
includes DSP units emulating instrument amplifiers, stomp-box classics,
versatile 'virtual analogue' oscillators, fractal oscillation, reverb,
equalization and more.
By default, CAPS will use SSE and/or SSE3 optimizations, if they are
supported on the build host. If you're building a package to be deployed
on a different system, you might need to set FORCE_SLACK_CFLAGS=yes in
the script's environment (this will completely disable SSE/SSE3).
This requires ladspa_sdk.

MotorWeek Video Transcript: 2007 Fuel Economy Guide and Energy Impact Score
Jessica Shea Choksey:From rocketing fuel costs this time last year to plummeting prices at the pump of late, we've talked a lot about fuel economy over the last year and now there's yet another way to talk about it. The U.S. Department of Energy and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency have just released the 2007 Fuel Economy Guide. This Guide helps car buyers to choose the most fuel-efficient vehicles to meet their needs by providing fuel costs estimates for each vehicle. New this year, the guide also calculates the "wells to wheels oil consumption" for each vehicle and indexes that to fuel economy numbers. Called the "Energy Impact Score" it measures every car and truck's impact on America's oil dependency and energy security. Researchers at the DOE's national laboratories first considered each vehicle's fuel economy and fuel type then calculated the amount of petroleum the vehicles consume. This data can determine if your vehicle of choice consumes as little as 1 barrel each year or as many as 42 barrels annually. Easy to use in print or online, the guide and its fuel costs data are organized by vehicle class then listed alphabetically by manufacture and model. Take the sub-compact car class for instance; the Toyota Yaris gets top honors. It's joined by the Honda Civic Hybrid for compacts and the Prius winning for the mid-size class. For overall leaders in fuel economy, consumers will find this list is naturally top-heavy with hybrids and has Toyota sealing five spots on the top-ten ranking vehicles.
So it seems no matter what you're interested in driving, the Fuel Economy Guide is the best way to compare them where it really counts, at the gas pump. And to further spread the word about this important new fuel economy gauge, MotorWeek will soon be incorporating the guide's new energy impact score in our road tests.
We'll keep you updated to any future changes to the guide, but we also encourage you to research your next vehicle before you pay the price to fill up. And that's it for this week's MotorNews.
