LOWELL -- Someone stole a city-owned truck from a Department of Public Works mechanic while he got a coffee at a Middlesex Street doughnut shop Sunday night, but a massive police search turned up the vehicle a short time later about a mile away.
The truck was reported missing about 6:50 p.m., by a DPW employee who was inside Honey Dew Donuts, 1740 Middlesex St.
The 1999 Ford F350 did not have a plow, but had a blue municipal license plate and DPW markings on the truck, since it is used to help maintain other DPW vehicles.
City police notified state police and surrounding towns, and dedicated several officers and detectives to the search for the truck.
The truck was found about 7:20 p.m., abandoned, near the Francis Gate House. Police radio broadcasts indicated the keys were still in the truck. The truck was returned to the DPW.
The theft comes as many DPW workers have only had about 8 hours off from work since Friday at 3:30 a.m. That is when City Manager Bernie Lynch said crews began work, stopping for only about 8 hours overnight Saturday.
Crews were back removing snow and plowing sidewalks Sunday night, and preparing to treat roads for an expected 1 to 2 inches of new snow that is expected to fall during this morning's commute.
Anyone with information is asked to call Lowell police at 978-937-3200 or Crimestoppers at 978-459-TIPS (8477). Information can also be sent to police via Text-a-Tip, by texting TIP411 (847411) with the subject "LPDTIP.
Tipsters can remain anonymous, but can receive up to $1,000 for information leading to an arrest.

Everyone knows the story of gold mining in Colorado — fortune-hunting ruffians working claims with pickaxes, guarding them with pistols and throwing back whiskey in mud-splattered mountain towns that sprang up, thrived and died as fast as a Black Friday line outside a Best Buy. And it was all over with about 120 years ago.
That last part? Well, not so much, it turns out.
Propelled by no fewer than four Discovery Channel shows dedicated to prospecting — and by gold prices around $1,600 or more an ounce — weekend placers (that's what they call themselves) have been packing up their pans and sluices lately and wading into the state's rivers and streams in numbers not seen in any living person's memory.
Vic's Gold Panning has been outfitting tourist prospectors for decades, but these days it has plenty of competition. Prospecting clubs are sprouting up and down the Front Range, according to Bill Chapman, former owner of Gold-N-Detectors in — where else? — Golden. His club averages about 90 to 100 people at its monthly meetings.
Dan Rieves, visitor-services director for Larimer County's natural-resources department, is all too familiar with the hobby's growing popularity.
The Gold Prospectors Association of America — which, according to its website, has been providing members "with all the tools needed to find gold" since 1968 — lists eight Colorado counties loaded with riches.
Larimer isn't one of them.
Nevertheless, in recent months, Rieves' staff has reported bumping into more and more recreational prospectors — and even what he called "midgrade gold-seekers with gas-powered water pumps."
That is why the county is considering adding, for a while at least, minerals to the list of things people can't harvest from county property. That list already includes American Indian artifacts and some vegetation.
The proposal, which the Larimer County Commissioners are expected to consider next month, has generated a lot of backlash in placer circles.
But it is not a ban, Rieves said. He characterized it as more of a timeout, while county parks-and-wildlife managers and lawyers put their heads together and figure out who has mineral rights to what and where.
"Our concern is not the recreational gold panning — that's no more disruptive to the environment than a guy fishing," Rieves said. "The concern is that we have a patchwork of properties that we manage on someone else's behalf. The can of worms for us is the mineral rights."
Mineral rights can, indeed, be a can of worms, according to Murray Hitzman, a geologist who teaches courses on mineral deposits at the Colorado School of Mines.
"On federal land or national forest land, the mineral rights would be owned by the federal government," Hitzman said.
But in nonwilderness public areas, it is legal for an individual to stake a claim.
On private property, though, it's not just a matter of figuring out who owns the property, Hitzman said. There's also the issue of who owns mineral rights to that property, and often the two have been separated, he said.
"My guess is most recreational panners are not even bothering with that," he said. "For somebody who goes out on weekends and takes a pan, probably no one is going to worry."
That's because, for the most part, what weekend panners are pulling out of Colorado streams are "tiny gold flakes," Hitzman said. "To get enough to make an ounce, that's a lot of work."
Chapman, who sold his store and insists he is retired even though he answered the phone at Gold-N-Detectors the day before Thanksgiving, said his hobby isn't one for people looking to get rich.
"In an afternoon, I can always come up with $20 worth of gold, but it is work, and I am old," he said.
On the other hand, getting outfitted for recreational gold panning will set you back about $50, and there's a good chance you'll recoup that investment, Chapman said.
Just try to tell yourself the same thing as you invest in new skis and a season lift pass.

CD Projekt Red has announced it will no longer contact pirates with legal action. Reports came last month that the company was contacting pirates to claim 911.80 euros (approximately $1,187), but the company ultimately decided that the loss of trust among some fans wasn't worth the risk.
"While we are confident that no one who legally owns one of our games has been required to compensate us for copyright infringement, we value our fans, our supporters, and our community too highly to take the chance that we might ever falsely accuse even one individual," a statement from co-founder Marcin Iwinski reads.
"So we've decided that we will immediately cease identifying and contacting pirates," the statement concludes (via Rock Paper Shotgun).
The statement goes on to reaffirm that the company doesn't support piracy, "It hurts us, the developers. It hurts the industry as a whole," says Iwinski. "We've heard your concerns, listened to your voices, and we're responding to them. But you need to help us and do your part: don't be indifferent to piracy." Not only encouraging players not to pirate, the statement tells users to step in and call foul on friends who pirate. "Unless you support the developers who make the games you play, unless you pay for those games, we won't be able to produce new excellent titles for you."
This should come as welcome news to those who feared the accusations would hit innocent victims, and it seems like the best way to handle the public relations spectacle. Nevertheless, the developer behind the previously PC-exclusive Witcher 2 is trusting fans by straying from DRM models, and piracy is a poor reward for their faith in users.

n Shane Graham Bevis: A late flood of votes hand-delivered to The Sun propelled this Lowellian into the top three. Bevis, a student at Greater Lowell Technical High School, has developed a respected reputation for his anti-bullying efforts, for which he has been recognized by Gov. Deval Patrick. One voter, raymondf, commented: "I have known Shane for many years. He used to stick up for me when kids would pick on me when we were little. He has always believed in everyone getting along and taken some grief for stepping up to people in defense of kids he didnt know. He deserves your votes. He also wants to be mayor someday ..."
n Michael Miles: The Lowell police officer and Dracut School Committee member has earned wide praise for his work as a substance-abuse counselor. One online voter, sssssusan, commented: "Through the years I have never seen anyone help more people in every instance that he could than Mike Miles. I wonder if this man sleeps. He has numerous jobs; because he does not only do the jobs listed but he finds time for everyone that touches his life. If you are privileged to have this man touch your life you will know what I am talking about ..."

GREENSBORO, N.C. – The Duke baseball team totaled 11 hits and took advantage of eight walks issued by the North Carolina A&T pitching staff to earn a 15-1 victory over the Aggies Wednesday evening at War Memorial Stadium.
The Blue Devils' 15 runs scored tied a season high set against Quinnipiac March 13. Duke trailed 1-0 after two before scoring four runs in the third and seven in the fourth to take a commanding 10-run lead. The game was ended after the seventh as the Blue Devils led 15-1.
All nine in the Duke starting lineup reached base and scored at least one run in the contest. Redshirt sophomore Chris Marconcini and junior Jordan Betts were both 2-for-3 on the night as the pair combined for seven RBI and four runs scored.
"We played well in all three phases," said head coach Chris Pollard. "We had an answer after they scored with the two-out single in the second. We were really efficient with our offense in the third with the walk, the hit by a pitch and the two-out single. Then in the seven-run fourth, we did a good job with our two-out approach and kept extending the inning."
Freshman James Marvel (3-2) picked up his third straight win, allowing one run on three hits in five innings of work. The Duke rookie right-hander struck out the side in the first and totaled five strikeouts in the game. Freshman Nick Hendrix and sophomore Andrew Istler each worked a scoreless inning in relief.
North Carolina A&T plated the first run of the game in the bottom of the second. Third baseman Dairio Little drew a walk and stole second to move into scoring position. Catcher Stefan Jordan then sent a single through the left side to score Little and put the Aggies on top 1-0.
A walk and a hit batter kick started the Duke offense in the third as the Blue Devils sent four around in the frame. Freshman Kenny Koplove led off with a walk and ended up scoring a Jeff Kremer chopper to first after Reed Anthes was hit by a pitch and Angelo La Bruna laid down the sac bunt. Marconcini then came to the plate and laced a two-run single to right center to put Duke up 3-1. Betts followed with an RBI double, bolstering the Duke advantage to 4-1.
After scoring four in the third, Duke plated seven runs on five hits in the fourth to take an 11-1 advantage. Six of the Blue Devils' seven runs in the inning came with two outs as Duke utilized timely hitting and four walks by the North Carolina A&T staff. Junior Mark Lumpa began the frame with a leadoff walk and also added a two-run single with the bases loaded.
Marconcini drove in a run with a triple in the fifth and scored on a wild pitch to make it 13-1 in favor of the Blue Devils. Duke scored two more in the seventh as Anthony D'Alessandro and Betts both belted doubles.
North Carolina A&T starter Tim Jones (0-2) suffered the loss, giving up four runs on two hits over 2.2 innings. Jones struck out three but also walked three batters.
Next up, Duke hosts Boston College in a three-game series this weekend at the Durham Bulls Athletic Park. First pitch of game one is set for Friday at 6 p.m.

Posted on February 3, 2010
What with all the trembling excitement over the Illinois Gubernatorial Primaries (Wait. What's that sound? Oh, millions of people in California, all yawning at once.) I thought I would talk about collectibles again.
See, right now, thousands of people in Illinois are looking over those buttons they wore for candidates who came in second or third, thinking, "I'd better put these somewhere safe. They're collectible." It is just that sort of thinking I wanted to talk to you about. I am here to tell you the truth: Yes. They ARE collectible.
They're just not worth any money.
I mentioned it before, didn't I? "Collectible" is not the same word as "valuable". Another key word, see, is that word "thousands". If more people are saving the thing for collectors than there are collectors who want it, the market goes down. A case in point is that Chicago Tribune the morning after the 2008 Presidential election. In the excitement of the moment, Tribunes featuring news of President-Elect Obama's victory sold for such obscene prices on eBay that the Tribune itself started printing more copies to keep up with demand.
Three weeks later, someone gave me a copy to sell on line, along with the Sun-Times, New York Times, and Wall Street Journal from the same day. I couldn't raise a dollar on the lot, though it is certainly a collectible collection. The market had been flooded, and those newspapers probably won't bring in what they cost at the newsstand for another half century.
It has been like that throughout the history of collecting. It's the stuff nobody thinks to keep that becomes the Expensive Collectible. The best bit of election memorabilia I was ever given to sell had been used to line a drawer for a hundred years. Its condition was what the professional dealers refer to, in technical terms, as "crappy". But how many other people in 1896 bothered to save a McKinkley/Hobart street banner? Not many.
Comic books are collectible. But the ones you want date to before the mid-sixties, because that's when people started thinking "Hey, these are Collectible!! Better save 'em!" It's the same with baseball cards and pulp magazines. The ones that bring the big bucks are the ones that were printed before the World War II scrap drives, when throwing things away was a patriotic duty. After the 1960s, when we started to issue price guides, people salted away what were once disposable pleasures. Thus those 1970s collectibles aren't worth a tenth of the ones our ancestors threw away in the 1940s: too many of them around. (Oh, in case you thought our ancestors had a better grip on quality than we do, when they were throwing away comic books and cheap paperbacks, they were spending their money on first editions of authors who now crowd the dustier shelves on bookstores. A lot of them were signed, limited COLLECTIBLES.)
I'm not saying you should throw away your BUTA FOR OMBUDSMAN buttons. They ARE collectible. Just plan on taking a wheelbarrow full of Buta buttons to the bank someday. If you just enjoy what you have instead of considering the market value of…Hey, isn't that a genuine 1922 Omaha Green wheelbarrow?

I do not subscribe to the belief held by many of my fellow countrymen that America's best days lie behind us.
I do not agree with the false prophets and snake oil salesmen that tell us the "end of days is near."
I do not subscribe to the belief held by many of my fellow countrymen that America's best days lie behind us.
I do not agree with the false prophets and snake oil salesmen that tell us the "end of days is near."
I refuse to believe that America can't prosper while at the very same time provide for those of her people who are in desperate need.
I reject the notion that America has experienced its greatest generation and this generation of Americans is any less patriotic, brave or resourceful than the generations which came before.
I will not accept that America is doing the very best it is capable of, and that the future can only be achieved by derisive, bi-partisan politics.
I believe that America deserves its rightful place among nations as an honorable country dedicated to the dignity of all the world's people and the consistent pursuit of peace.
I will forever believe that America's best and brightest have yet to be born.
I will continue to hold out hope that all the religions of the world will one day reconcile the fact that they all pray to the very same god and stop the killings in the name of religion.
It is my wish that someday folks will realize that the constitution was designed as a starting point and was never intended be a stale and stagnant finish line for American rights.
Each time Americans are faced with terrorist atrocities, the world is shown in unmistakable clarity that we refuse to allow them to break the nation's spirit.
If their intent is to strike fear in our hearts clearly they have consistently failed.
Every time terrorists unleash death and destruction on Americans we see the news footage time-after-time of brave folks rushing towards the carnage to help their fellows in trouble.
If the terrorists attack us in order to break our unity, what is clearly shown the world is America's determination and indelible ability to stay united in face of every calamity, every time.
Our first responders are the bravest and best in the world.
Whether it be a terrorist attack or a fertilizer explosion, the bravest of the brave can be found rushing to aide those folks in trouble.
This nation owes a debt of gratitude to all those brave men and women who have given their live's so selflessly in their roles as first responders.
Their ultimate sacrifice in the attempt to keep their fellow countrymen safe is a living, breathing testament to the very best of what it is to be an American.
What the terrorists will never understand is that there is no country more resilient than is America.
There is no country more united when faced with catastrophe than is America.
There is no country more committed to bringing cowardly terrorists to justice than is America.
America rebounds quickly when our hearts are lifted by news images of our countrymen chanting... USA... USA... as our law enforcement carts terrorists off to our jails.
I say that terrorists will never achieve their goals in America... EVER!

One of the country's most persistent challenges is finding ways to help those struggling with mental health and substance abuse issues beyond their control.
Federal figures show the number to be significant. In 2008, it was estimated that 30 million Americans had received treatment for a mental health issue in the previous year, and about 22 million were believed to be addicted to drugs or alcohol.

In the fog and smoke of the constantly churning Middle East, a change in the tone and substance of Palestinian Authority (PA) President Mahmoud Abbas' public remarks since the Palestinians were granted non-state member status by the UN General Assembly, has been little noticed in world media.
On Jan. 4 in Ramallah, on the occasion of the anniversary of the founding of the El-Fatah militia of the PLO, Abbas delivered a fiery speech that could have been written for PLO founder Ahmad Shukeiry or his benighted successor Yasser Arafat.
Ignoring every paragraph of every page of every bilateral agreement the PA has signed with Israel since 1993, Abbas exhorted his people to embrace a future burning with the stinging vapours of exploding bombs and discharging rifles.
So shockingly sharp was Abbas' swerve from previous speeches, Prof. Dore Gold, Israel's former ambassador to the United Nations, noted that it "may have marked a turning point in the relations between the Palestinian Authority president and the State of Israel."
Islamic affairs expert Jonathan Halevi, writing for the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs, characterized Abbas' Jan. 4 message as "a radical political doctrine."
What struck Gold and Halevi as gravely surprising, if not a bit unnerving too, was Abbas' frequent resort to themes of violence and non-accommodation.
"Abbas chose to re-emphasize that the Palestinian people remain on the path of struggle to realize 'the dream of return' of the Palestinian refugees and their millions of descendants," Halevi wrote.
It was especially noteworthy for Halevi that Abbas invoked the names of some of vilest slaughterers of Jews in Palestinian history as fit and worthy role models for the youth of his nation.
"Abbas pledged to continue the path of struggle of previous Palestinian leaders, mentioning the Mufti of Jerusalem, Haj Amin al-Husseini, who forged a strategic alliance with Nazi Germany, and heads of Palestinian terror organizations who were directly responsible for the murder of thousands of Israeli civilians. All are equal and suitable partners in the Palestinian struggle, and their ideological platform – even if it is terrorist and/or radical-Islamist – is a source of inspiration for the Palestinian people," Halevi wrote.
Of course, the commonly heard rejoinder to Halevi's observation is that "one person's terrorist is another person's hero." But stretching the notion of hero to include Adolf Hitler and his confederates attests rather revealingly and disgustingly to the character of the individual suggesting that stretch. There is absolutely no room, not the tiniest, milli-measurement of light, for any moral relativism on the suggestion of Hitler/Mufti as hero.
Gold speculated that vast geo-political and geo-cultural changes in the region since 1993 account for the sudden shift in Abbas' demeanour.
"With the uprisings in the Arab world since 2011," Gold wrote, "a new rejectionist front has come to power through Islamist parties that are now ruling from Tunisia to Egypt."
Accommodation with the Jewish state is plainly at odds with the core dogma of the Islamists whose rising tide of rejectionism and confrontation seems to be washing across much of the Arab world.
It may be that Abbas does not want to stand on the wrong side of Arab history, as he perceives it. He may be reorienting PA policy. Or, alternatively, he may simply be doing what he does with an expert's finesse: saying one thing to the West and quite the opposite to Ramallah. Was it a coincidence that Abbas delivered his Jan. 4 message during the Israeli election? Perhaps he wished to push the Israeli electorate further to the right to enable him to continue proclaiming his people's victimhood to Israeli intransigence?
But, much as they confounded the many vaunted Mideast pundits, the Israeli voters confounded him too.
The majority of Israelis clearly voted to try to find a mutually respectful, secure way in which to find an agreement with the Palestinians. They may be forgiven, however, for not yet reposing all of their trust in Mahmoud Abbas, who urges his people to regard Hitler's henchmen and accomplices as great figures of history.
The most compelling observation about Abbas' recent behaviour belongs to Halevi. He concluded, rather sadly, "Anyone who expected that Abbas would follow a more moderate course after the UN General Assembly resolution of Nov. 29, 2012, upgrading the status of the PLO's observer mission to that of an observer state, was undoubtedly disappointed with Abbas' remarks. He was not preparing the Palestinian people for making peace, but rather reverting to rhetoric perpetuating and even escalating the conflict." –MBD

Estimates run up to 1 million gallons of raw sewage that flowed into Sandy Creek
The leak from the broken sewer line could be much, much larger than previously thought, but officials may never now how much raw sewage leaked into Sandy Creek or how long the leak had been going on
City manager Craig Jones and officials from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife and the Bureau of Land Management were surveying the creek bed east from the leak to assess the effects of the leak.
Jones said he was told Wednesday afternoon that about 190,000 gallons had leaked, but that figure could be much higher, even a million gallons, he said Thursday morning.
The leak was first thought to have started Tuesday, but now there are indications that it could have started before that.
Jones said the inflow meter to the wastewater plant was down for repairs and there is no accurate measure of the flow into the ponds at the treatment plant.
"They did notice there was a drop in the inflow," Jones said. "We may never know how much leaked out. It could have been more than a million gallons."
Jones said the sewage flowed down Sandy Creek from a point just east of Highway 119 to near the east end of the runway at the Taft Airport.
The break was discovered Tuesday morning and by 8 p.m. that night crews had put a bypass around the problem area to get the effluent flowing back into the system down to the wastewater treatment plant about a mile east of the break.
Jones said settling soil is most likely the cause of the leak. "This area is really prone to soil subsidence," he said. "So we are assuming the soil subsided and compromised the main and caused it to leak." As the leak worsened, the soil washed away and the pipe failed completely, Jones said.
The leak will not cost the city anything out of its general fund. The sewer system is covered through a separate fund with its revenues coming from an assessment paid on property tax bills.

Its started with Democracy Vs Mob-ocracy (Loktantra Vs Bhidtantra) followed by Demo-crisis Vs Mob-crisis...
Every Indian seemed to be wanting DRAMA including MEDIA, OPPOSITION, TV VIEWERS... And they got a good one...
Though pet nahi bhara - They want more and they are getting more of it...
Pros and Cons - Progress and Congress all are down - The only thing one talks of is BABA...
Honestly me too fed up of the TAMASHA...
Hope we see some ASHA...

baba black sheep
Who wrote that nursery rhyme?
You will be slammed and called names now. Baba is a hero for the trp hungry tv media. Baba is hero for all anti congress people. Baba is a hero for all the fanatics of India.
So why do you want to become politically incorrect?
By the way baba is fond of salwar kameezes whenever there is a need to disappear.

So you are fed up with Ramdev baba's tamasha !!
I am sorry for my language but That's a CHUTTAD statement Ms De !!
There is one lady who is paralysed and scores of people faced brutallity and some are in ICU.
Your Sonia madam has kept complete SILENCE on the issue along with your dimple darling RAHUL BABA. BJP as usual has shown crocodile tears.
I wonder if a bamboo is placed inside the buttocks of such insensitive people who live in Leuten's Delhi and let Ajantha Mendis with his carrom fingers twist the bamboo 90 degrees every 3 minutes and then collect the venom of these poisnous snakes and pour it inside the eyes of that bastard Digvijay Singh who calls Osama bin Laden as Osamajee. That will be real TAMASHA...right ??
Get a life because it seems you are losing your sensitivity to issues as you are AGING.
DONT BE SELECTIVE and dont act like Barkha Dutt who along with Digvijay Singh are agents of MUSLIMS !!

I am not a supporter of Sonia Gandhi/Congress or Ramdev. But I am concerned about my fundamental rights and democracy as a citizen of the country ...... and if I need to do 'Tamasha' to protect it I will.
If Rahul Gandhi is sent away from UP by the Mayawati govt, Mommy Gandhi and and Congress call it undemocratic. So why double standards ?? When thousands of peaceful protesters were brutally attacked by Police.
You were talking about clean rest rooms for women in India .... here we(men and women) don't even have freedom to speech. And revolting against a corrupt govt is tagged as Tamasha !!!
- June 6, 2011 at 10:51 PM
- Tsomo85 said...
Yeah it's sad to see all these tamasha but I think its was governments fault for making peaceful protest into tamasha. Why break the violent at first place? May to make baba R look funny and to bring him down so that people can throw joke at the drama that they planned to air. Goby sure knows how to play political game. Baba became joker for no reason. They must be enjoying all these people getting hurt and baba ji being stamped as idiot funny old saint.

Get a life guys...Look,, the fact that you are feel bombarded with scams, and deluge of anti-corruption crusades on the telly is only an indicator that the media has become oh so powerful in its reach, impact and effectiveness that they will seize every opportunity to make the most of every positive or negative byte it has on offer.
While free press/media has its advantages for any country, it has its disadvantages too. Uncontrolled media blitzkrieg has to be brought under the fold of a regulator, that knows how to respect the freedom of press, creativity, and at the same time evaluates the deleterious impact of its extremities on the overall health of the nation, being subjected to free programming of the ugly kind. Its time for a re-look of media regulation and broadcast policy.
The Anna episode and Baba episode is an only an indicator that as India prospers, there will be members emerging from the society wanting to bring about positive change, using raw aggression or clumsy non-aggressive strategies, their motive genuine or otherwise. While thats healthy even in a half baked democracy like ours, it will also lead to rogues trying to make their way into this. Many will fall by the wayside, as not every one can rule, and that the numbers that can be accommodated at the top is limited. Baba did his fast, Anna did his, and that democracy allows them; the govt ejected out Baba's non-violent mass gathering in the name of maintaining order and decorum in the capital city, which again, democracy allows.

Whats happening?
Anna Hazare backward Baba ramdev forward , Mr ramadev by his tamasha is in the front page of every news paper for his fast and other antics(like wearing salwar kameez trying to flee from delhis ramlila maidan following the police crackdown,Supreme Court gives notice to govt cops on eviction,man mohan singh saying no other choice says unfortunate but unavoidable, Bjp shouts unfair and take full advantage of the tamasha to the extent sushma swaraj dancing at opposition satyagraha(opposing police action in ramlila grounds) near rajghat, people shout that sudden crackdown on baba campaign a giant govt misstep, supporters of ramdev against corruption and black money are contained using riot like measures - lathicharge and teargas shells.
My personal view - iam not with Ramadev( my heart is not with him) Anna Hazare started the campaign against corruption but since this baba has joined dont know whats happening as i wrote in the beginning Anna backward ramadev forward which is not good news!

I fail to understand why is it so hard for a common man to live a simple life in India... These tamasha's are done just for freedom. These impotent politicians have been eating up the nation for past 6 decades and I really feel sorry for the mango people out there...
However, it seems like Ms. De is minutely affected from such act since she doesn't have to deal with the problems a common man faces in their daily lives! She already is living her life king size! Seriously, Ms. De, have a heart for people like us!

Yahan kya ho raha hai ?
Yahan bahut kuch ho raha hai. Breaking news every minute. Nobody shuts down the TV.
Till now the congress was looting us left, right & centre & stashing the money in Swiss & German banks. Now that they are exposed in 2G, CWG, Adarsh.....& are caught pants down, they've resorted to gundagardi. 5000 police including RAF is reported to have swooped down in Ramlila grounds Saturday midnight using lathis & teargas on men, women & children. 23 were hospitalised. A 51 yr old woman Rajbala Malik is critically injured & may be paralysed for life. This was done to people who were sleeping after 1 AM. All the friends & allies of congress, every channel, everybody who is somebody have heavily critised the govt for its high handedness. Supreme court has asked for an explanation. But not even a "sorry" has come from them. Kapil Sibal said 'this will be a lesson to others' !
This party often boasts that they have won the independance as if these people went to the warfield, fought with the British & won the freedom. Bhagat singh, Sardar Vallabhai Patel, Gandhiji won the freedom for us, not for these bunch of jokers alone.
Now we don't have the independance to sleep in Ramlila grounds, sit in Jantar Mantar, go to UP or Delhi or anywhere without their "permission".
Now that they are cornered, completely isolated, desperate & frustrated, they have resorted to calling names. Ramdev is called a "thug", Anna Hazaare is called a mukhota of RSS. Manish Tiwari had the audacity to call him a fascist !!! A fascist calling the father of the nation a fascist ?
Since Sushma Swaraj danced for "Ye desh hai veer jawanon ka", they call the BJP "nachaniya party." Manish Tiwari says you can assess the "charitr" of these people by this dance. Those who dance for patriotic songs are chartraheen !
Now we don't have the freedom to dance without being called "charitraheen".
Now I have a good mind to call them names after mustering some courage like Kareena Kapoor in 'Jab we met'.
hmmm. "fascist. Dictators. thugs. arrogant people. What do you think ? Just because we voted for you, the nation has become your 'baap ka jayadaat' ? We cannot go anywhere without your 'permission' ? We should not dance ?" Chalo chodo. I'm not as good as they are.
I wish the people taught them a good lesson to humble their arrogance.

Only one old lady critically injured. She is 51 not 91. She might have been injured by her own group just for media attention. Who knows? LIke Godhra train incident. And then the riots happened. Something on these lines might have been planned.
The same BJP which is crying now just brushed aside the killing of thousands of muslims and still now Modi is sitting pretty with BJP's blessings. Double standards? Or muslim lives and sikh lives are not important in our country? Staines young kids were burnt. Its ok because they belong to christians. Again double standards.

So you are fed up of the Baba Ramdev tamasha? Why is that so may one ask? Are you in any way scared of his anti-corruption campaign? Hundreds of mostly poor un-armed innocent women, children and men have been brutally beaten up by a thuggish police force sent in to create mayhem, by an equally thuggish Congress party and all you can come up with is that you are fed up. It is preciesly this contempt that India's conceited and arrogant elite trash has for the people of Bharat that so infuriates these people into supporting Baba Ramdev. Despised abroad by their white masters for their conceit and uncaring attitude towards Barat's multitudes of poor and increasingly hated at home for their brazen thivery, India's elite should consider themselves lucky that they live amongst the world's most tolerant and forgiving people, that is the people of Bharat.

Rakhi is synonymous with the caressing love and emotion. This event is full of sentimental touches, only with that sentiment that a human being lives for. The relationship between a brother and sister is perhaps the only relation next to parents that expects nothing materialistic from the relationship. A look inside www.gifts-to-india.com/rakhi_uk.asp lets the visitor find the perfect gift for this sacred event.

iTrader is used on X7OG and A5OG as well, and works really really well. It's basically an eBay-style feedback system.Originally Posted by BigEvil
I like it better than simply a feedback thread, because you can tell right from the start how much feedback a person has, and if there have been any negatives. With a standard feedback thread, you'd have to read every single post to determine that a person has no negatives.
This would be an upgrade.Originally Posted by Justus

FYI - VbAdvanced is what MCB used as their homepage. I like it, I think it's a great idea for an active forum. The bad part is that if the forum is not very active then this doesn't seem like all that great an idea.Originally Posted by BTAutoMag
Also - has anyone mentioned getting some new hipper mods on board who can handle the back end stuff better? No offense to the Captain, but every forum needs someone who can do that stuff.
I nominate Dayspring, just cus I love him and I know his life is not complicated enough
As far as avatars are concerned, if we want to keep it simple and classy, why not use the regional AO state badges/logos?
i like the way Big Evil conducts his site in reference to sigs and avatars.

Things off the top of my head....
Avatars: 96x96 is a good size. Give end-users the option to disable avatars if they do not like them.
Feedback Ratings: Something simple. I do like the way PBN does their rating system.
Groups: Moderators, Techs, Contributors, etc. Something to distingish certain users on the board. On other sites I would actively look for members that were specialized and were notated by a different color or badge.
Mod's: Make it a bit more cut and dry. Who is the AO Moderation Team? Add a few more senior members to tidy up the place.
Signatures: No pictures, just text. If it is a hassle only enable them when you click the persons profile. Like this... http://www.automags.org/forums/member.php?u=6593
AO Member Banner: The picture at the top right. Rework the code for it so it is less labor intensive. The background with the hexagon pattern could be a background and we could put a PNG on top. All we would need is a picture with the background removed to post.
i completly forgot about the member banner. yes, someone throw some more ideas about that
I would like AO to be AO but MCBs "point based" infraction system seems a reasonable way to allow moderators to give "meaningful warnings". That is users may receive infraction points but no action is taken unless X amount of points accumulate. Infractions expire.
I'm not familiar with the exact way the system works but it seems to work.

QuickClean Enzyme Removal Resin is a solid-phase matrix for phenol-free removal of proteins from aqueous solutions of single- or double-stranded nucleic acids used for quick, phenol-free deproteinization of DNA and RNA samples. QuickClean efficiently removes enzymes and other proteins from DNA or RNA samples in a brief vortex and spin step. No hazardous phenol extractions or time-consuming ethanol precipitations are required. The simple protocol can be performed in less than five minutes, and the resin's blue color makes it easier to remove.
QuickClean Enzyme Removal Resin may be used to remove restriction enzymes, ligases, Taq DNA polymerase, RNase, and DNase after reactions with DNA or RNA to prevent those enzymes from interfering with subsequent manipulations. The resin can also be used to deproteinize DNA and RNA before electrophoresis on agarose gels. This will improve the resolution and clarity of bands when preparing for blot hybridization. If bands are to be cut out of the gel, deproteinization before electrophoresis will eliminate enzymes that may comigrate with the DNA fragments and coelute from the gel slices.

Yes, I understand. Peyton Manning is a four-time MVP, a Super Bowl winner, and a sure-fire first-ballot Hall of Famer. He commands a game like nobody else. Even when he's just at 75 percent, he's still better than everybody else. And by all accounts, he's an even better man off the field than on it. It's great to have him in Denver.
But I'm still going to miss Tim Tebow.

Catching up with Hansel and Gretel 15 years after their incident involving a gingerbread house, the siblings have evolved into bounty hunters who hunt witches.
To get showtimes, enter your postal code to find theaters showing this movie in your area.
Recent years have seen classic fairy tales spawn a variety of cinematic adaptations. In some cases, we see family friendly updates like Mirror, Mirror. In others, we see dark reimaginings like Snow White and the Huntsman. In each of these cases, regardless of how successful they might have been in achieving their artistic visions, it was clear what type of movie was being made. With Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters, such is hardly the case.
The film opens with a playful macabre tone, hearkening back to the family-friendly (but nonetheless scary) Halloween movies of the '80s and '90s, and prompting hope for this attitude to carry forth throughout the movie. The brimming imagery, silly dialogue, and overacting of the introductory scene makes it feels like the kind of thing you'd have loved as a child — the sort of film you'd make a tradition of watching every October... until you reached 9th grade and were forever robbed of your innocent love of simple pleasures.
But following the intro — which sends young Hansel and Gretel off into the pitch black woods after their mother and father are forced to hide them from an undisclosed threat, and subsequently throws them into the clutches of a decrepit old witch in a candy house — we're treated to a movie with a stark identity crisis. The subject matter, pacing, aesthetic style, and sophistication of the material all suggest a film for children. But for some reason, this movie seems bent on proving itself ''mature.'' Kind of like when you reached 9th grade and were forever robbed of your innocent love of simple pleasures, and felt the need to prove just how grown up you were, Hansel and Gretel ''rebels'' against its childlike nature by throwing in very jagged flashes of grotesque gore and misplaced expletives.
The two youngsters manage to escape the wrath of a witch and then devote their lives to taking the witch race down, hired as bounty hunters by a small town mayor to recover the kidnapped children of a handful of villagers. Now, this could successfully translate in two different ways: it could take form as a fun-for-all-ages adventure wrapped in black magic and kooky characters, or as a dark, adult deconstruction of the classic tale. What we get instead is a grab for both, and an achievement of neither, with the confusion of the mixed message landing Hansel and Gretel in a nebulous middle ground.
The story we're faced with seems best suited for young ones. Simplicity is the name of the game for titular heroes Jeremy Renner and Gemma Arteron, who don't have much in the way of character beyond ''We kill witches!'' Renner is the puggish kill-first-question-later gun-toter, stricken with diabetes (the strangest element of this movie) after his run-in with the candy house witch; Arteron is vicious with a crossbow and a headbutt, but more even-keeled and demanding of evidence of witchcraft before imparting her wrath. The duo are teamed with the likes of Mina (Pihla Viitala), an enigmatic woman saved from torch-wielding villagers by Hansel and Gretel, Ben (Thomas Mann), an overly eager young fan of the pair who looks and acts like he's straight out of Growing Pains, and eventually Edward (Derek Mears), a closed-mouthed troll who takes a liking to Gretel for mysterious reasons. The uncomplicated characters, fast-flying broomstick chases, and incredibly accessible overarching plot would and should land us with a PG-13 gunner.
But the prevalence of the aforementioned gore, nonstop violence, and harsh language stamps the picture with an R-rating. And for the adults to whom this brand of movie is limited, something like Hansel and Gretel would come off as brainless. Not dull — the pacing ensures that you won't be bored. Not overwhelmingly bad in any way, really. Just lacking in substance and charm. In a word, dumb.
While preteens and young teens might eat this kind of thing up (whether or not they should is an entirely different question), adults will

Thursday Night FootballIndianapolis @ JacksonvillePerhaps the most impressive aspect of Andrew Luck's 433-yard, two-score Week 9 winning effort against Miami is that Luck was under duress almost the entire game. He's played like that all year, though. Unfazed by pressure and picking apart a tough Dolphins defense, Luck connected with four different receivers for 75-plus yards in the league's finest passing performance since Aaron Rodgers' Week 6 destruction of the Texans. Will Luck bounce back for a similarly monster game at Jacksonville? He's certainly got the individual talent to, and can be a rest-of-season QB1 if his teammates cooperate. Donnie Avery, T.Y. Hilton, and Dwayne Allen all had season-best games against the Fins. ... One plus for Luck's Week 10 outlook is the Jaguars' utter inability to hurry opposing passers. Last in the NFL in sacks (8 in 8 games), Jacksonville also ranks in the bottom eight of both Football Outsiders and Pro Football Focus' team pass-rushing metrics. It's no secret that quarterbacks are unfailingly more productive operating in clean pockets. Luck projects to have his cleanest pocket all season on Thursday night. ... The Jaguars and Colts squared off in Week 3 this season. Luck passed for 313 yards, two touchdowns, and a pick, and hooked up with Reggie Wayne eight times for 88 yards. The No. 5 overall fantasy receiver through eight games, Wayne is a WR1 in this matchup. ... Avery and Hilton are both dice-roll WR3 options. Avery fell hard on his hip in Sunday's win over Miami and has never played well at less than 100 percent.Although Hilton sees fewer snaps than Avery (69 percent to Avery's 77 the past two weeks), the rookie third receiver is arguably a more attractive Week 10 fantasy bet than the starter. Hilton has 17 targets to Avery's 15 since Week 7 and flashes a more versatile game, playing roughly 40 percent of his snaps in the slot. Avery plays almost strictly outside. ... Vick Ballard's run skills underwhelm, but he's averaging nearly 18 touches a game the past three weeks and experienced a significant bump in passing-down usage. Indianapolis felt comfortable enough with Ballard's improved versatility to release third-down back Mewelde Moore last week. Ballard proceeded to set season highs in snaps (54), catches (3), and receiving yards (38) versus Miami. Ballard's lack of big-play ability curtails his upside, but he's worth a flex play against Jacksonville's 27th-ranked run defense. Through eight games, only the Bills have allowed more rushing touchdowns than the Jaguars. ... Donald Brown (knee) won't play Thursday night, further enhancing Ballard's outlook and forcing plodder Delone Carter into the Colts' No. 2 back role. Carter is averaging roughly six carries per game over the past month, without a reception. He's unworthy of a 12-team league roster spot. ... The stats suggest Allen is a poor bye-week filler play -- Jacksonville has allowed the fewest fantasy points to tight ends -- but the rookie was highly active against Miami and should remain so at Jacksonville. Allen secured 6-of-7 targets for 75 yards in Week 9, also drawing a 31-yard pass interference flag on Fins LB Koa Misi. Allen will remain a big part of the Colts' offense.I re-watched the Week 9 Jaguars-Lions game late Tuesday, looking for signs of life from Justin Blackmon. He did catch his first career touchdown in fourth-quarter garbage time, after all. But Blackmon's game was thoroughly unimpressive. The first-round pick released sluggishly off the line, did not create separation from man coverage, and generally looked unathletic. Blackmon dropped a second-quarter pass from Blaine Gabbert on third-and-15, and was noticeably slower than Cecil Shorts out of breaks. It's too soon to call Blackmon a bust, but there is no reason to believe he'll be a rookie-year fantasy asset. ... If Gabbert took a step forward in Weeks 7-8, he took two steps back against the Lions. Intercepted twice in Week 9, Gabbert should have been picked off at least three more times on poorly placed passes that slipped through the hands of Detroit defenders. Gabbert didn't move the offense until the Jaguars fell behind 21-0, leaning on checkdown completions in comeback mode. Gabbert's pocket fear hasn't been as apparent as it was last year, but he still plays timidly and there is little or no downfield threat to Jacksonville's passing game. The Colts will be without both of their starting cornerbacks (Vontae Davis -- knee, Jerraud Powers -- toe) on Thursday, so perhaps Blackmon & Co. will finally be able to get open.After missing a month with a concussion, $32.5 million free-agent bust Laurent Robinson rejoined the lineup in Week 9 to secure 6-of-9 targets for 41 yards. He was the third receiver behind Shorts and Blackmon and is unworthy of a fantasy roster spot. ... Although Shorts' four targets against the Lions were disappointing, he remains the best weekly bet for production in the Jaguars' pass game. Gabbert's target distribution since the Week 6 bye: Shorts 26, Blackmon and Rashad Jennings 21, Marcedes Lewis 16. ... Versus Detroit, Jennings let a third-quarter pass bounce off his hands and it was intercepted. He was benched on the next drive for Jalen Parmele and the two backs rotated the rest of the way. Jennings figures to regain his starting job against Indianapolis' No. 25 run defense, and the favorable matchup keeps him in the mix as a flex play. Unfortunately, Jennings has been ineffective since replacing Maurice Jones-Drew three games ago. Yet to clear 60 rushing yards in any game this year, Jennings has 151 yards on his last 53 carries (2.85 YPC). ... Lewis is 25th in fantasy tight end scoring and barely on the TE2 radar. Working against him Thursday night will be a Colts defense that has surrendered the fewest catches and yards in the NFL to tight ends. Look elsewhere, even if you're in a bye-week crunch.Score Prediction: Colts 24, Jaguars 13
Start or Sit: Indianapolis @ Jacksonville Are Donnie Avery or T.Y. Hilton worthy of starting this week? What about Vick Ballard or Rashad Jennings? Kay Adams (@heykayadams) and Matt Stroup (@mattstroup) break down Colts - Jaguars.

Fundamentalist terrorism in France: a home-grown threat
French newspapers are dominated by the aftermath of a series of arrests of terrorist suspects this weekend. Also, France's first lady is back in the papers.
Le Figaro and Libération are in agreement on the terrorist threat: it's a home-grown phenomenon. Le Parisien evoked a drift towards terrorism among French youth, and Libération touches on a growing anxiety within the Jewish community.
President François Hollande's partner is back in the press, showing her support for Florence Cassez, the French woman serving a 60 year sentence in a Mexican jail. Valérie Trierweiler's sent her a care package, and could bring the issue up with Mexico's new president.

For some reason this morning I was thinking about newspapers, most particularly about the Daily Register. Two years from now this venerable daily will celebrate its 100th anniversary. Newsweek (the print version), Life, Look, Collier's, etc. are past tense now. The Daily Register endures.
Looking back over the decades, I recall a column in the Register by one Timotheus T. Turner, a column that was probably read more than anything else in the Register except, of course, for the obituaries. As I recall, Mr. Turner's musings appeared on the left side of the front page, and what musings they were, too. One time he reprinted ads from an old newspaper someone had found in the attic. Mostly, though, he wrote about the ephemera of the everyday, such wonders such the over-sized turnip or the latest cold snap.
Several years after he left the Daily Register I had the opportunity to meet Mr. Turner in Carbondale. (I believe he was connected in some way with SIU at the time). Did I tell the old man how much his column was read and appreciated in my parent's household all those years ago? I hope so, but probably not.
Thinking about the Register leads to thoughts on another newspaper, one so strange any skeptic worth the name would write it off as a waking dream. Yet I will happily lay my hand on any number of Bibles and swear every word I'm about to share is as true as memory allows.
Years ago carpenters were hired to rebuild an old house that would soon be our new home. Sometimes I would help with the sawing and hammering, despite my having minimal skills with hammer and saw and that's being generous. One day one of the carpenters said he had something at home he wanted to show me. Maybe I could solve a mystery that had been bothering him for years. Intrigued, I plied him for more details, but to no avail. In fact, for several days in a row he kept forgetting to bring whatever it was that captured his imagination. Finally, enough days later that my mind had turned from solving puzzles to hammering two-by-fours in place without bending nails or smashing thumb, the carpenter slipped from a paper bag what appeared to be an old newspaper of no particular interest.
The second glance said otherwise. Yellowed and rough to the touch as old corn shucks, each of the four folded pages measured two feet by three feet, and each was crowded with text copied entirely by hand. It was all hand copied in pencil and not a real newspaper at all.
There was a breeze that day, as I recall, and the broad sheets fluttered in the sunlight.
Concerning the articles on the four-page spread, I can't recall even one of them after these many years, or even the title hand-printed at the top of page one; but the document itself I can't get out of my head. The strangest part of all, the more I think about it the less sense it makes.
As for my solving the mystery, ha! The carpenter would have done as well asking one of the dogs.
My best response was to thank him for helping further baffle my existence. At the time, puzzling documents seemed relatively insignificant.
Getting the house finished was what really mattered.
Two Newspapers
For some reason this morning I was thinking about newspapers, most particularly about the Daily Register. Two years from now this venerable daily will celebrate its 100th anniversary. Newsweek (the print version), Life, Look, Collier's, etc. are past tense now. The Daily Register endures.

Okay, so we drown in mechs and half-naked women and whatnot. 99% of the pieces might be unoriginal, but at least they usually require and display a certain level of talent. It might be warrior princess #3445,6 posted, but if it's drawn in a way that shows that the artist knows of anatomy, layout, color, etc. its cool. At least you can see that there was work put into it, not even when it was made but also before, to reach, through practice, the level that enabled the artist to draw something like that.
Oh and on the originality : trust me. for every big-breasted laser-gun toting warrior spicegirl from hell there are 5 bazillion bad photorapes. So i hardly believe originality is a point.

Donna Burnett, MAEd, is a doctoral candidate in the School of Education with an anticipated graduation date of 2008. Her research is in the area of dietetics practice. She is investigating the methods that U.S. registered dietitians use to evaluate the psychosocial issues related to food- and weight-concerns of clients prior to implementing interventions.
Working as a clinical dietitian in 1980 at UAB was such a positive experience for Donna, she decided that UAB was the place to come for her graduate studies. "I thoroughly enjoyed the academic and research environment in which I worked at UAB and wanted to return." Although Donna started graduate school back in 1986, she decided to take a break from her studies to start a family. She explains, "My first child was born in 1987, my second in 1989, and my third in 1991. I resumed graduate studies in education in 2001. Now my second-born child is a UAB student, as well! I think I broke the mold on 'lifetime learners.'"
When asked what motivates her academics/research, Donna remarks, "The motivation for my research comes from a deep desire to understand issues and solve problems. Having studied the professional literature, for example, I know that some people struggling with food- and weight-related issues may have underlying issues, such as child abuse, etc., that have affected self-esteem, self-directed behavior, and mood status, among other things. How can health educators, dietitians, counselors, exercise physiologists, physicians, nurses, etc., work more closely together to be more effective in helping this population? What interventions work most effectively with this population? These are questions yet to be answered."
The most rewarding UAB experiences for Donna relate to professional collaboration with professors through service learning, conference presentations, and publications. She adds that the UAB School of Education has been the greatest influence for her. "[I believe] the UAB School of Education faculty to be the best faculty in the world! Thank you to each of you."
Donna's long list of awards and honors include: Kappa Delta Pi Honor Society, Eta Sigma Gamma Professional Honor Society, Golden Key International Honour Society, Outstanding doctoral student for the 2006-2007 school year, and UAB mini-award for research 2007.
Donna advises other graduate students to, "Surround yourself with the best of the best in the way of faculty and of classmates. It matters. Get to know your professors and take an interest in their service projects and research. Be helpful to other students and to faculty whenever possible. Be an encourager!"
After graduation, Donna plans to continue working in the UAB Laboratory for Global Health Observation with Dr. Sarah Parcak, to teach whenever possible, and to develop my own research agenda with those who share similar interests. Her future plans include being able to use the knowledge gained through her graduate studies at UAB and elsewhere to continue to make advances in health education and promotion in whatever way she can through service, teaching, and research.
