Name: Smashbox Limitless Eye Liner Khol in Onyx
Price: £14.00
Where: Boots, Smashbox Online, Boots Online
I bought this while in Dubai when I realised in my haste of packing, I forgot to pack my eyeliner *shock horror*! We hopped down to the Dubai mall (its freakin' huge – even has a giant fish take right in the middle!!!) and I visited the sephora there to get this eye pencil.
I decided on buying this particular khol liner as I liked the fact that there was the sharpener on the end of the cap – after all, I am forever losing my sharpener and often find myself trying to draw straight lines on my under-eye line! (its a wonder they look marginally normal as my khol pencils are blunt half the time!)
I found this khol pencil not to be as dark as some others I've got, but my biggest gripe would be that it does not stay on for very long at all. Shame really as I really wanted this to be good. Throughout an 8 hour day – I cannot tell you how many times I had to re-apply.
Its not the best out there in the market unfortunately, I would get MAC Khol in Smoulder, which is the same price but three times as dark – have a peek here.
For a cheaper alternative – try Maybelline's Master Smokey khol pencil here. Value for money and a great pencil.
If you wanted a luxury brand which is great as well (but you fork out the pennies of course!) try YSL Khol liner here (great if like me you could get this free when you purchase other stuff from YSL! – don't worry, I'll keep a look out if they do that again and tell you!) 🙂 🙂
If you really wanted to try the smashbox limitless eye liner, click here here to get it online.
Night night lovelies – alas, tomorrow is a working day and *gasp* its only Tuesday. Oh well, at least my birthday is soon! 🙂

I Am Special Activity
Last year, I did a really fun activity with my kids. They loved it then and they really loved it again this year. So, I just had to share!!
In the big open space, they draw a picture of themselves. They need to see what makes them special like the color of their hair, skin, eyes, and so on. Of course, they're little ones, so they're far from perfect, but they sure are fun!!
There's also an area to put stickers down with their name on them or glue letters down. There's also a blank line for them to write their names. On the side, there's a cute poem about being unique. Finally, on the side, they can also put their fingerprint under the magnifying glass. Why?? Because each of us has a fingerprint that is unique to only us!! To do this part, we just used an ink pad.
If you're interested in this activity page, just click to….
Here are some photos my kids in action with this page this year. You'll notice that I forgot my stickers at home, so we made due and used letter beads!!
If you use this page, please leave a comment and let me know if your kids enjoyed it as much as mine did!!

text: Want further proof that HRC is trying to buy their success in 2010? Just confirmed is the news that Livio Suppo will be leaving Ducati Corse for HRC. After 11 years with Ducati, Suppo for many reasons has been the driving force and ethos of the Corse team. His departure signals not only an active acquisition strategy at HRC, but also a shake-up at Ducati Corse. While Suppo cites HRC's offer as an opportunity difficult to resist, there seems to be some speculation about his departure being related to Ducati Corse courting Valentino Rossi for the 2011 season. Helping fuel this rumor is the fact that former Ducati test rider, Vito Guareschi, will take over as the new team manager.

Justin Bieber put his recent problems behind him to make a return to the stage with a guest appearance at Cody Simpson's show in Los Angeles on Friday night (14Jun13).
The Baby hitmaker thrilled the crowd at L.A.'s Club Nokia venue by showing up unannounced to perform with the Australian teen sensation.
Bieber performed with Simpson on his track Pretty Brown Eyes, much to the delight of the crowd, and he subsequently boasted about the gig in a post on Twitter.com, writing, "Surprised the crowd at my bro (sic) Cody Simpson's show tonight. Proud of him. He killed it! Great job Cody."
Bieber has been in the headlines for all the wrong reasons recently following a dispute with his California neighbors who claimed the singer was racing around their gated community at high speeds in his Ferrari, prompting a police investigation.

Great quality brats. Cooked up nicely on the charcoal grill. Delivered on time as promised.
I bought this as a birthday gift for my friend. He is a retired butcher that specialized in gourmet meats. He loved them! He could tell right away that they were delicious. From the casings, color and flavor, he knew they were very well made. It was a special treat. Thanks so much. Very much satisfied!!!
Very good, quick service.
My husband LOVES this combo pack. I got it as a gag gift for his 30th birthday - and he is so impressed. We will definitely be ordering again soon.
Bavaria's Most Popular Bratwurst Combo includes 3 lbs. each of precooked Smoked Bratwurst and Red Lager Beer Bratwurst. These brats are perfect for those last minute get togethers or Wisconsin's favorite tailgate parties. Bratwurst are made with lean beef and pork and taste great when they are made on the grill. Expedited shipping is required for this product year-round in order to ensure freshness and quality when delivered.

Panda the Gunner
I'm sleeping at school again tonight. People think I'm super studious and am always staying overnight to study. They call me a silent red hot because I never outwardly worry about my grades, yet I lock myself indoors outlining on my computer all night.
In reality, I'm just here chatting online and browsing the Internet. I do what I would normally do at home, except there is no TV here, so I get tiny bit more work done. And the couches are comfortable here.
The number one perk of being a law student is that people presume you are studying simply because you are typing away furiously. The only thing I need to watch out for is not physically react when I get funny IMs from my friends. Indeed.

Taiwanese People Dissatisfied with Colleges
An excerpt from the Taipei Times article:
Mou Tsung-tsan (
牟宗燦), director of the university, said that the public feels that colleges nowadays are low quality, due to the surging number of schools established in recent years.
"With so many colleges around, the quality of education plummets and there is a lack of competition among schools," Mou said. "This is bad for our country's future, because with globalization we need positive competition among schools."
The poll indicated that 42.34 percent of the public would like their children to remain in Taiwan for college, while 36.31 percent wanted to send their children to US or European colleges, Mou said.
Survey results also showed that most think the biggest problems college students face are their own laziness and lack of motivation, Mou added.
Mou said that the university has been carrying out new education plans with the Ministry of Education budget and hopes to address the problem from the beginning.

Social Psychology of 2004 U.S. Election
American Roulette: The Effect of Reminders of Death on Support for George W. Bush in the 2004 Presidential Election
An experiment was conducted to assess the effect of a subtle reminder of death on voting intentions for the 2004 U.S. presidential election. On the basis of terror management theory and previous research, we hypothesized that a mortality salience induction would increase support for President George W. Bush and decrease support for Senator John Kerry. In late September 2004, following a mortality salience or control induction, registered voters were asked which candidate they intended to vote for. In accord with predictions, Senator John Kerry received substantially more votes than George Bush in the control condition, but Bush was favored over Kerry following a reminder of death, suggesting that President Bush's re-election may have been facilitated by nonconscious concerns about mortality in the aftermath of September 11, 2001.
Lies in a Time of Threat: Betrayal Blindness and the 2004 U.S. Presidential Election
Exit polls from the 2004 U.S. presidential election indicated overwhelming support for President Bush among voters who said they valued honesty, even though the Bush administration had been sharply criticized for deceiving the public, especially concerning the reasons for invading Iraq. A psychological theory recently developed to help explain memory loss in trauma survivors sheds light on this paradox. Betrayal Trauma Theory (Freyd, 1996) states that memory impairment is greatest when a victim is dependent on the perpetrator. The theory also predicts who will be "blind" to signs of deception—those who are emotionally or financially dependent on the person who is lying. Although every American is dependent on the U.S. President to some extent, religious conservatives may be more psychologically dependent than others. Because they believe their core values are under attack, they depend on powerful leaders such as President Bush to defend these values. This psychological dependence may make it difficult for them to notice the administration's deceptions.

SFO Installing Message Screens for the Deaf
Read the full article.
Passengers with hearing disabilities will be able to read public-address announcements on dozens of large video screens at San Francisco International Airport in the coming months under terms of a lawsuit settlement announced Wednesday.
"We're hoping SFO is going to be a model for other airports to follow,'' said Kevin Knestrick, an attorney for Disability Rights Advocates, an Oakland nonprofit that claimed in a lawsuit filed in 2002 that the airport was not complying with the Americans with Disabilities Act.
The key part of the settlement requires SFO to install 80 visual paging monitors in the airport. Large plasma screens will display text messages duplicating announcements made over the airport's public-address system. The text announcements will scroll on the screen so that travelers can view recent messages, including pages and emergency messages.

Straight Asian Man Magazine?
I am intrigued by what SAM stands for. I couldn't find anything about this on their website, but the first thing that crossed my mind was Straight Asian Man. The website seems to only show half-naked women, so that might make sense.
Or it can just be named after the publisher/editor, Samuel Choae (an AsianWeek article on Choae).
I emailed them with this question...hopefully I'll get a response. If anybody knows the answer, please let me know.

High School Fines Students for Cursing
The tickets accuse students of creating a public disturbance and require them to appear in Superior Court. No one has yet paid the fine, which some students and parents say is excessive, especially for students from low-income families. Hartford educators said the fine was intended to be a financial burden. "If it was $25, maybe they would pay and curse just the same," Ms. Gordon said.

Licence to Kill (1989)
31 mistakes
Directed by: John Glen
Starring: Carey Lowell, Desmond Llewelyn, Robert Davi, Talisa Soto, Timothy Dalton
Factual error: When the air hose on the truck is severed, the brakes release. In reality, on an air-braking system, if the air hose is severed, the brakes lock on, as a safety measure.wizard_of_gore
Continuity mistake: In the scene on the plane you see Bond hanging at the door on the right side of the plane, in the next shot you see the plane making a left turn, in the following shot Bond is still hanging on the right-side door. Shouldn't he have fallen into the plane ?
Factual error: The discharge from an electric eel doesn't make flashes of light or sparks in the water, as shown in this film. (00:30:00)David Mercier
Visible crew/equipment: After Bond received a lighter from Felix and Della, he uses it and the flame is big. In the beginning and the end, you can see a tube is connected to the lighter and the tube goes into his suit. (00:15:00)
Plot hole: Bond goes after Lupe after she leaves the casino table and they have quite a lengthy, hush-hush conversation. It's a casino and there are cameras everywhere. Certainly, this would have been brought to Sanchez' attention since he was already leery of Bond and possibly Lupe.Lynette Carrington
Revealing mistake: When Lupe Lamore puts Sanchez's iguana down on the table near the end of the movie, you can see the iguana bounce slightly. Also, it isn't breathing.
Continuity mistake: In the end of the movie when Bond and other driver drive by trucks on the road and Bond tries to bypass the other truck we can see from the rear view angle that number plate of Bond's truck is BSK118. When Bond and other driver drive side by side, we can see from the front view angle number plates of both trucks. Suddenly Bond has a truck which plate is BZX255 and other driver has a truck with BSK118 number plate. After the other truck has collided to the rock and when it's driver comes out, we can see part of the truck's number plate which has letter BZX2... Later we can see that Bond drives again the truck which number plate is BSK118. So trucks have changed during some phases. (01:58:55)
Continuity mistake: In the opening scenes, where Bond is winching down from the helicopter, some shots from the chopper show the winch cable going through a pulley. When he lands on the tail of the Sanchez's plane the winch cable is much bigger. Then, when the helicopter pulls up, the plane is being carried by the cargo hook line, under the belly of the chopper (rescue winches are normally only rated for 300kg). (00:06:30 - 00:07:15)
Continuity mistake: When Truman-Lodge is shot by Sanchez, he falls off to the side of the road, but when Bond makes his escape through the fire, Truman-Lodge's body is shown lying in the road.wizard_of_gore
Continuity mistake: Slightly weird one, this. Just after Bond says "compliments of Sharky", Krest takes his gun out and fires at him. For some weird reason there's a jump cut a fraction of a second before he shoots - he pulls out the gun, aims, then jumps slightly to the right and fires. (00:41:10)Jon Sandys
Continuity mistake: When Bond examines Della's 'dead' body, her mouth goes from being open in one shot to closed in the next.wizard_of_gore
Continuity mistake: On the Wavekrest when Krest is called to the bridge, to see "just a Manta-ray" it is dark outside. When Bond arrives on the Wavekrest minutes later however it is daytime the first time he looks outside. (00:36:30 - 00:40:20)
Factual error: A shotgun cannot make such a large hole in a wooden wall as it does in the bar where Bond meets Pam. A slug would make a single smaller hole, and pellets would make several small holes.Jacob La Cour
Revealing mistake: During the tanker chase scene, the characters are driving Kenworth W900B tanker trucks. The W900B series trucks have cab door latches located on the bottom, rearmost corner of the cab doors. After Bond forces another truck into the ditch, its driver can be seen climbing out of the wrecked truck. The door latch on this truck is now located just below the window. Kenworth stopped using this style of door latch in the early 1970's on the W900A, the W900B's predecessor. The truck in the ditch has been swapped out with an older W900A for the explosion shot.
Continuity mistake: In the scene where Sanchez fires the Stinger at Bouvier's plane, it misses the right elevator, yet the left elevator starts to smoke. In the next shot of the plane, the right elevator now has a large flaming hole in it. (02:05:15)
Continuity mistake: The fire in the lab is started by Bond throwing a glass of burning gasoline on a table. A few seconds later we see that it is burning two separate places in the room. How did it jump? In the clip where Bond is placed on the conveyor, we see a small fire on the floor of the lab, but nowhere else. Nevertheless we hear an explosion and see black smoke on the outside. That fire spreads unrealistically fast.Jacob La Cour
Factual error: At the casino in Isthmus City, Bond is asked to cut the deck. He does that physically - splitting the deck in two. No casino in the world allows the players to touch the cards. The cut is made by inserting a plastic card in the relevant place.Jacob La Cour
Continuity mistake: When Pam and James are in the bar, Pam isn't wearing a bullet proof vest. Yet when she stands up in the boat a few minutes later, she suddenly has this massive vest attached to her back, which took the bullet hit. (00:49:00 - 00:53:10)tattoojunkie
Other mistake: When Loti is shot three times, all three bullet holes appear on her at the same time.raph
Continuity mistake: When the four blokes get covered in the crop dust there's a big white patch on the ground. When they get up and run at Bond the white patch is gone.
Continuity mistake: When the tanker is blown up by the rocket, the driver runs off to the left. Cut to the long shot of the tanker blowing up and the driver is gone.
Continuity mistake: When Bond forces the tanker off the road the front wheels come off and Bond's tanker stops. Switch to inside the cab with Bond and he's moving again.
Continuity mistake: When Sanchez gets in the petrol tanker at the end the two drivers from the crashed one are in front of the one that's on fire. One is lying down, the other injured, but when the trailer blows up both men have disappeared.
Continuity mistake: Around the time Lupe starts dealing at the casino table, we see a woman in a purple, red and yellow dress walk away. In the next shot, a close up of Bond, the woman is standing behind Bond, and in the next shot she is walking away again.
Continuity mistake: While Bond attempts to pass a tanker during the chase scene, he forces another tanker into the ditch. In subsequent scenes, you can see the crashed truck appears to have had the engine removed and replaced with a dark object meant to simulate the appearance of an engine.
Continuity mistake: When Bond's unhooked tanker trailer collides with another tanker, you can see the tanker truck involved has pulled to the left side of the road with its wheels pointed left. The truck also appears to be intact through out the scene. During the second explosion, as Sanchez is escaping in another tanker, you can see the disabled tanker truck now has its wheels pointed to the right. The disabled tanker is also missing an exhaust stack and you can see daylight through a portion of the grill, indicating that its radiator and engine have been removed.
Continuity mistake: When Bond and Pam are in the pool at the end of the film, Pam asks him, "Why don't you wait until you are asked?" You can see Pam's right hand on Bond's back when she asks the question, but in the next shot her right hand is now on his shoulder.
Continuity mistake: When bond takes the tanker onto one side to avoid the stinger its not Dalton in the controls it is visible because the stunt driver has a shorter and a fatter face.Death racer 1
Revealing mistake: In a quick shot where the divers are coming into save Sanchez as the van has been ditched into the ocean, you can see the man in the van is not Robert Davi but a stuntman. It then changes shot to the diver giving Robert Davi a spare demand valve. (00:16:05)tattoojunkie
Audio problem: When Bond takes the 'belt' off his tux, in order to get the concealed rope, there is a scratching sound, as velcro ripping. But the belt is not closed with velcro. We can see metal clamps when the belt lies on the ground and Bond removes the rope.Jacob La Cour
Audio problem: When Bond captures the seaplane with the money, he knocks out the pilot and throws him out. We can see that his body is limp when he falls from the plane. Nevertheless there is an 'aaaarrrrgghh' sound, as he falls. If he was awake, he would not have been as limp as we see - and in that event it is then clear it is a dummy being thrown from the plane.Jacob La Cour

An investigation of children's timing abilities as a model for understanding the nature of ADHD deficits
Recent studies have supported a contemporary model of Attention-deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) demonstrating that children with ADHD have impaired abilities on time reproduction tasks. Little, however, is known regarding the cognitive-neuropsychological nature of children's timing abilities. In the current study, a cross-sectional design was used to investigate the nature of timing abilities of nondisabled children (6-year-olds and 10-year-olds) by comparing the directional accuracy and absolute errors in time reproduction of 3 brief intervals (i.e., 10-seconds; 36-seconds; 60-seconds) with and without interference. Duration and task-effects were noted for both groups as they underproduced intervals more as the length of the intervals increased and with the presence of interference tasks. Two kinds of age-related effects were revealed: (1) without interference, younger children generally were not as precise as older children, especially at briefer intervals as they generated more absolute error; and (2) younger children were more influenced (i.e., greater underproduction) by simultaneous information processing task interference than successive interference whereas the older group was influenced equally by the two kinds of interference. Attention ability accounted for 25% of the variance of the older group's absolute error on the 10-second interval with successive interference; however it did not account for a significant proportion of the variance in error or accuracy at any other duration-task, and it did not account for any of the variance in the timing abilities of the younger group. Furthermore, nonverbal working memory for objects and spatial location did not account for a significant proportion of the variance in timing ability for either group of children suggesting that children's timing abilities may rely on an additional nonverbal working memory system distinct from visual and verbal working memory. ^

CHICAGO — Luol Deng may be out of the hospital, but he doesn't seem ready to return to the basketball court.
The Bulls forward, who has been laid up since Game 5 of Chicago's first-round series win over the Nets after suffering complications from a spinal tap to test for meningitis, told reporters yesterday he still has a long way to go in order to be ready to play in a game. That means he likely will sit out Game 3 of the Bulls' Eastern Conference semifinals series against the Heat tonight.
"It's really my first day out of the house and out of the hospital," said Deng, who also said he has lost about 15 pounds since initially getting sick last week. "I haven't really left my bed much or done much.
"I don't know [about Game 3]. … I tried to shoot a little bit and I struggled a little. I couldn't do it, but we'll see."
Along with Deng, Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau said point guard Kirk Hinrich had a second MRI exam on his bruised left calf, which has kept him out since he played 60 minutes in the Bulls' triple-overtime win over the Nets in Game 4 of the first-round series almost two weeks ago.
Deng joined his teammates for the film session covering Wednesday night's 115-78 drubbing by the Heat that evened the series. He also got on the court and took a few jumpers, but that was all he could handle.
"Still day to day. He's feeling a little bit better," Thibodeau said. "We'll see tomorrow."
While Chicago was taking stock of its injuries, Miami was bracing for the first game of the series at the United Center. It's the Heat's first trip to Chicago since a 101-97 loss on March 27 snapped their 27-game winning streak.
Like Deng, Hinrich is expected to miss tonight's game. Nate Robinson and Marco Belinelli would continue to fill in for them.

Granted, some reports or estimates are more critical to the overall economic well-being of the agricultural sector than others. Months of dry, hot weather in major agricultural areas in the U.S. and weather problems in competing export countries have appropriately focused considerable attention on USDA's weekly Crop Condition Reports and USDA's monthly World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates reports. Numbers in these reports directly affect farmers' pocketbooks.
Just lately, USDA's report on August export projections has been receiving a lot of attention. The 7.5 percent increase in total export value in fiscal 2003 compared to fiscal 2002 makes for a good read and good PR. But the report also projects a decline in shipments of bulk commodities such as grains and oilseeds during fiscal 2003. Much of the dollar tally of U.S. agricultural exports now consist of value that is added after raw commodities have passed-by the farm gate and increased exports of non-program commodities. So, unless the weather damaged crops around the world smash the projection of reduced bulk commodity exports, this really is a ho-hum report that reveals little about most farmers' bottom line.
But the USDA report that virtually predicts farmers' bottom line has received little attention in the media or by governmental officials. The August 20, 2002 report on Farm Income and Costs forecasts a drop in calendar year 2002 net farm income of 23 percent from the 2001 level. The forecast for 2002 net farm income is $35.2 billion, the lowest level since 1986. In terms of constant 1996 dollars, calendar year 2002 real net farm income ranks third lowest in the last sixty-eight years, that's right six-eight.
Crop receipts are projected to increase marginally by $2.3 billion, largely due to the increased prices of late. Livestock receipts takes a big hit showing a decline of $9.4 billion. And livestock receipts have been the bright spot in net farm income over the last several years as the crop sector has become increasingly dependent on government payments for net farm income.
The other area showing a significant decline compared to last year is government payments which, with lower LDPs and the possibility of no counter-cyclical payments, shows a decline in forecast 2002 income of $4.5 billion.
The talk about high prices and a couple of trade deals may sound good in the press, but the reality is that agriculture's price/income problems remain for calendar 2002. And for those who lost crops to this summer's hot weather, next calendar year's income doesn't look so great either. They will miss out on the weather-generated high prices and with the switch from emergency payments to counter-cyclical payments, there will be nothing there for them either.
Over the past several years it appears that the politically acceptable minimum net farm income is in the low $40 billion range. The predicted drop in net farm income to $35.2 billion (along with the fact that, in a rising market, the counter-cyclical payments provide no benefits to producers who have a crop failure) probably provides adequate political justification for the $5 billion to $6 billion farm disaster bills that are being bandied about in the halls of Congress.
However, and it is a big however, the administration has indicated that it will not accept any bill with farm disaster payments in it unless the additional cost is offset by savings elsewhere in the budget. Proponents of the disaster relief argue that they can fund the aid from unexpended funds in the LDP and counter-cyclical programs. Meanwhile, the administration has vacillated on whether the savings can come from the Farm Bill or whether they need to come from elsewhere in the budget. Stay tuned to see how this one plays out.
The other issue will be the means of distributing the payments. Over the last several years, the payments have been distributed by increasing the AMTA payment. But with some farmers enjoying good crops and higher prices and other farmers with few crops to sell, that payment distribution system will not work well this year. An additional question is how funds will be distributed to the livestock sector, which is facing a $9.1 billion drop in the value of its production. But these are political issues and I am betting that where there's a political will, there's a political way.

Peyton Manning threw a pick-six, fumbled, and then threw the game-losing interception in overtime as the top-seeded Broncos lost to Baltimore, 38-35. The Ravens were 9.5-point underdogs.
Unless Tom Brady loses today, your NFL storyline this week: What is the deal with Peyton Manning in the postseason? He's just 9-11 and eight of those losses have been of the one-and-done variety (either Wild Card or after a bye).
It's a perplexing question with no right or wrong answer. Are we even talking about this is if Denver safety Rahim Moore doesn't take a mind-bogglingly bad angle on that pass to Jacoby Jones with less than a minute left? Nope. We'd all be slamming the Ravens for completely forgetting Torrey Smith was on the roster in the second half after he abused Champ Bailey in the first half.
In comparing his regular season numbers to his playoff stats – sample size alert – the difference isn't jarring, but his completion percentage, QB rating and Yards-per-attempt are all down a bit. One obvious thing to remember before looking at this chart from Pro Football reference – just because the QB is the most important position on the field, no entire win or loss is ever on one player.
Peyton Manning's last playoff win: Jan. 24, 2010. Against the Jets. At home. I won't bother bore you with a further breakdown of Manning's record indoors vs. outdoors, in frigid temps, vs. Tom Brady, and so on and so on.

You Can't Detect What You Can't See: Illuminating the Entire Kill Chain
Is KDE dying? This question, or variants of it, have been asked with increasing frequency in the two weeks since Jonathan Riddell announced that, after the next release, Canonical would no longer pay him for his work on Kubuntu, the KDE version of Ubuntu.
But is the question valid? Or simply unsupported panic?
The issue was raised as soon as Riddell's news reached Slashdot. One thread in the comments about the announcement was entitled, "Beginning of the end for KDE?" The first post in the thread suggested that KDE will "continue to be developed for years to come but without major backing it'll probably fade away like a lot of projects do. It's a shame, I feel KDE had much more to offer than Gnome but long term there could be only one winner and all the major players picked Gnome."
More recently, the submitter of a Slashdot link about the design plans for GNOME 3's core applications commented that "for now, I'm sticking to the sinking ship of KDE in the Ubuntu ocean."
The issue was raised in even greater detail by Jack Wallen, a columnist at TechRepublic. The news, Wallen wrote, "hits the KDE desktop where it counts. . . . This marks the loss of the last major distribution to ship with a KDE desktop."
Wallen went on to say that he thought KDE would survive, if only as an alternative. However, his concluding comments that "KDE does not deserve such a fate" and "deserves to be made available through some official channel" continues to leave the impression that the news leaves KDE on life support.
Apparently his readers agree. In a poll accompanying Wallen's article, 12% thought the news meant KDE's "death knell," while 52% thought that KDE should release its own distribution.
Clearly, the idea that KDE is in trouble is spreading. The only trouble is, the idea is based on a mis-interpretation of the news, and is unsupported by the evidence.
Anyone who believes that KDE is dying would do well to look at history. A Google search for "is KDE dead" returns 38,100 results, most of them in the last five years, but a few over a decade old. By contrast, "is GNOME dead" returns only 6 results. Apparently, the KDE death-watch has a long tradition, even though there has never been much to see.
As for the recent news about Kubuntu, whether it affects KDE is doubtful. Although over the years Canonical and Ubuntu founder Mark Shuttleworth has expressed the occasional enthusiasm for KDE, it has never received the same level of attention as GNOME in Ubuntu.
According to KDE's Aaron Seigo, Riddell was never paid full-time to work on Kubuntu. In fact, "Jonathan Riddell was working on [the version control system Bazaar] during his work hours for most of the last Kubuntu release cycle and had little time outside of work for Kubuntu. Yet, Kubuntu still made a good release on-time, driven by the community around Kubuntu. So we know it doesn't die if Jonathan isn't paid to work on it."
In fact, a look at the Kubuntu mail forum indicates that an active community supports Kubuntu, and seems determined to keep it alive, despite the discouraging news.
In addition, like Lubuntu, Xubuntu, and other Ubuntu variations, Kubuntu will continue to have access to Launchpad, Ubuntu's development site, and other Ubuntu resources.
Yet even if Kubuntu were to stop development, the effect on KDE would be relatively small. The truth is, Kubuntu has never been the premier KDE distribution (that would probably be openSUSE).
Mention Kubuntu, and inevitably its past reputation for having quality assurance problems is raised. True, in the last few releases, its quality has improved immensely. Yet, as Riddell admits in the announcement, in seven years Kubuntu "has not taken over the world commercially and shows no immediate signs of doing so."
In fact, contrary to Wallen's characterization, Kubuntu has never ranked as a major distribution. The page views on Distrowatch tell the story: in the last four years, while Ubuntu has consistently ranked first or second among distributions, Kubuntu has never been higher than fifteenth, and is currently at twenty-fifth, behind Lubuntu and just ahead of Xubuntu. In these same years, Kubuntu has consistently had less than fifth of the page views as Ubuntu.

With all the racing games being shown at E3, it's hard to pick what you want. The games get progressively more realistic and shiny, or conversely they get more turbo boosted and flame-decaled. So wandering around the floor show in Santa Monica, it was a bit surprising to see a game that is just a straight up arcade rally racer. Sega Rally Revo by, you guessed it, Sega is bringing back arcade racing. We got the chance to try it for ourselves and see how this racer stacks up against the bajillion other ones coming out this year.
So this game isn't going to be Gran Turismo, or Forza, or even Dirt. The first thing we noticed is that when you go careening into a tree or cliff side (which we did as often as possible), nothing happens. You go careening off the tree and keep right on racing like nothing happened. Sega says this is intentional. Sega Rally Revo is a rally racer aimed more at the casual, arcade racing fan. The damage done to the car is minor and cosmetic only, so even though we sucked hardcore and kept smashing into rock, trees, other racers, pretty much everything, we managed to squeak out a first place win.
We got to see two of the tracks offered in the game. The first, set in the lush tropics of Southeast Asia was a dirt and mud track. Sega was pimping their real time world deformation, where the tracks will dynamically change as racers drive under them. Unlike Motorstorm or Dirt, gameplay will actually be affected by the deforming landscape. Taking turns inside the tracks of a previous racer will give you better grip, while driving over the grooves will cause your car to bump and fishtail.
The second track shown was a tarmac and snow course set in the alpine hills. You really got to see the world deformation in the snow sections, as each car left deep grooves in the snow. There was a considerable difference in traction and speed when driving through those sections, making the second and third lap a lot faster. Another feature of the game was pointed out here: the inability to drive off the course. No matter how hard you hit those guard rails your little Subaru isn't going to go careening off the cliff side. So don't expect big spectacle crashes like in Motorstorm, or even the fade to white Dirt crashes. Sega says they don't want to take the player out of the race, because they crash too many times.
Word on the street is that a few of the guys from Criterion Games (the Burnout Series) and Rockstar (Grand Theft Auto) have joined up with Sega Driving Studio to help out with the new game. Hopefully thy can tune up some of the controls because the game is ultra twitchy. The slightest thumb movement caused the car to fishtail all over the place, splattering mud and losing speed.
Sega Rally Racing could be a fun game for those that like their racing games to have tons of speed and action, without the frustrations of tire pressure and losing because you suck so much you can't stay on the road. It's coming out this October so stay tuned for more info.

Nelson Tasman's famously creative local culture extends to wine making in a multitude of privately owned boutique vineyards.
Benefiting from a sunny, maritime climate, the picturesque valley vineyards of Nelson Tasman yield some of New Zealand's most freshly scented, intensely flavoured sauvignon blanc and chardonnay, as well as vibrant, supple pinot noir.
Even though it is among the smaller wine regions of the country, Nelson's wines are internationally acclaimed for their high quality. Its winemakers are recognised for crafting wonderfully drinkable wines that stand apart from the typical commercial styles.
Wines from Neudorf Vineyards have found their way onto the wine lists of several great European restaurants, and Kaimera Estate wines are exported to the UK, Ireland, Singapore and the USA.
The award-winning Woolaston Estate is a beautiful place to visit and is also home to a significant collection of stunning sculptures and artwork. The Gallery at Woolaston hosts a changing programme of exhibitions by national and international artists and is open year-round.
Grapes are grown in the Moutere Hills and Waimea Plains, and you can visit most of the wineries in a single day. There are plenty of guided tours. Like the neighbouring Marlborough region, cycling is a great way to discover the vineyards and enjoy Nelson Tasman's beauty. Hire a bike and ride Nelson's Great Taste Trail to experience the best in the region.
When out and about tasting wine, keep your eye out for eating opportunities. A variety of artisan food producers will tempt you with breads, chocolates, pesto, chutneys, honey and jams, fine meats and salami. The local cafes and restaurants make the most of the abundant fresh produce and seafood. The culinary approach here, much like its wine crafting, is about creating rather producing, and savouring rather than consuming.

Months ago, my Breitbart News colleagues and I talked frequently about how awful the media would get during this campaign. We all agreed the media would be as biased and corrupt as was humanly possible. What we didn't know was how that might manifest itself into what we would actually see and hear.
We all knew the media would protect Obama at all costs by distracting from the economy and attacking Romney over his wealth. That stuff wasn't hard to predict. It was the Obama game-plan, which meant it would be the media's as well. But the fun part of the discussion was in imagining the possibilities. How low would they go? How desperate would they act? How shameless? How brazen? How stupid?
We batted around every possible idea including the absurd, safe in the knowledge that when you're talking about the most corrupt institution allowed to operate legally in America, absurdities really aren't. But never in a million years would any of us have expected Politico to do what it did today.
The Middle East is burning; the White House is engaged in a cover up; the FBI cannot gain access to the scene of an ambassador's assassination at the hands of al-Qaeda; we learned today that security in Benghazi was not only lax but that requests for increased security were ignored; our GDP was just downgraded to 1.3%; orders for durable goods collapsed 12%; and poverty is on the march.
But what's the corrupt Politico's Big Lead Story today?
Something all of my Breitbart colleagues did agree on was that, before the election was over, every mainstream media outlet would eventually become a spoof of itself — a living spoof of how a conservative would imagine its outrageous bias.
We still have five weeks to go and plenty of laughs to be had at the expense of these shameless shills. But this is certainly a corrupt Politico moment worth freezing in time to laugh at some more.
Oh, and brilliant timing, Politico — your sex symbol really stepped in it to day. Not that another epic Biden gaffe will ever replace how hot he is in your list of journalistic priorities.

BMCC awarded over 3,500 associate degrees at morning and afternoon commencement ceremonies at The Theatre in Madison Square Garden on May 29.
Senior VP and Provost of Academic Affairs Karrin Wilks served as mace-bearer, leading a procession of faculty, administrators, staff and honor students to gather on the dais. Family and friends filled the theater of over 5,000 seats, calling out names and snapping photos of graduates as they made their way toward the stage.
BMCC President Antonio Pérez greeted the audience and congratulated the BMCC class of 2015.
"Today is a milestone in the legacy you are creating," he said. "It is a legacy built on hard work, and it follows many paths."
He noted that while the graduates received support from their families, professors and friends, they have given back, as well.
"You have served as peer tutors … You have volunteered on all kinds of special projects, including providing free tax preparation in your neighborhoods, and working in our city's soup kitchens."
BMCC students helped build housing through Habitat for Humanity in New Orleans, he said, adding that they collected funds for earthquake victims in Nepal and those affected by the Ebola epidemic in West Africa.
Graduates in the class of 2015, he said, "are changing the definition of 'community'," as they enter careers that are increasingly global. When he asked students born outside the United States to stand, about a fourth of the graduates did so, to wild applause.
Morning Presidential Medalist, Stephen Meringoff
In the morning session, BMCC President Antonio Pérez presented this year's Presidential Medal to Stephen Meringoff, President of the Meringoff Family Foundation.
Meringoff also serves as a co-managing partner of Himmel Plus Meringoff Properties, and is chairman of its property management affiliate, Meringoff Properties, Inc.
"Throughout his impressive career, Stephen's vision has prevailed, and he never lost site of how an economy, how the real estate industry itself, reflects people's lives on a very personal level," the President said.
He talked about Meringoff's role as a board member of the non-profit organization Pencil, and his gift of a Steinway piano to BMCC, as well as a recent and substantial gift to BMCC's Out in Two program.
In his remarks, Meringoff mentioned "two of our children have taken courses at BMCC … and the dedication and commitment to excellence I've seen at the college motivated me to contribute to BMCC, especially to the Out in Two program."
"Having worked with hundreds of young people," he told the graduates, "I believe passionately in our City and in the international community that you are going to return to. Congratulations for everything you have accomplished."
Afternoon Presidential Medalist, Jay Lieberman
The afternoon recipient of the Presidential Medal was Jay Lieberman, trustee of The Derfner Foundation.
"Like many successful people, Jay keeps a very low profile," said President Pérez.
After serving in the Military Airlift Command of the U.S. Air Force during the Vietnam War, Lieberman entered the real estate field and eventually became president of Derfner Management, working with the late Harold Derfner, who was his mentor and friend for many years.
"Together, they developed many of the building complexes you see on the Upper East Side, and throughout our city," the president said, adding that thanks to the vision and generosity of Jay Lieberman and The Derfner Foundation, BMCC now houses a new state-of-the-art communication lab, The Derfner Foundation Communication Center, and has been able to expand the number of students served by a successful BMCC program, Out in Two.
"Those who know him well know he loves his family, improving education for all students, and golf," the president said in closing.
"When recently asked about himself he said, 'I like to stay in the background'. This afternoon, we're going to shine a light on Jay and thank him for his generosity by presenting him with this Presidential Medal from our college."
As Lieberman accepted his medal, he said of BMCC, "I believe in the college's commitment of offering quality education at a price that is affordable to a diverse population."
He told the graduates, "Your hard work has paid off … Whatever you decide to do now, take with you the lessons you have learned at BMCC and apply them to help improve your community, our city, and beyond."
Keynote speaker Charles Schumer and guest speakers
Special guest speakers throughout the two ceremonies included CUNY Trustees Freida D. Foster and Charles A. Shorter; CUNY Vice Chancellor for Budget and Finance Matthew Sapienza, and CUNY Interim Executive Vice Chancellor and University Provost Julia Wrigley.
Trustee Foster shared that she had worked at BMCC in the nineties, and noted that of the 3,500 graduates honored at this year's commencement ceremonies, "1,200 are graduating with honors."
She reminded the graduates that education "is the gateway to the world and beyond," and quoted President Obama: "Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek."
Vice Chancellor Sapienza encouraged the graduates to stay focused on their future goals.
He reminded the audience that the New York Rangers playoff was scheduled for that evening in Madison Square Garden, and quoted professional hockey player Wayne Gretzky: "I don't skate to where the puck is. I skate to where the puck is going."
Keynote speaker Charles "Chuck" Schumer talked to the graduates about his own experience as a college student; his regret over foregoing an academic opportunity then completing law school and running for public office.
He explained the benefits of a tax credit law he sponsored that enables families to claim up to $2,500 to offset the cost of college tuition.
"About a third of those who were entitled, didn't take the credit last year," Schumer said, encouraging the graduates to take advantage of the savings, which he is seeking to expand.
In closing, he said, "My advice is simple. Go for it!"
Valedictorians and SGA President
Vice President of Student Affairs Marva Craig introduced BMCC Student Government Association President Okeema Humphrey, who advised the class of 2015 that whether they are "employed, unemployed, or moving on to higher education … use what you learned at BMCC to be the best version of yourself that you can be."
Provost Wilks introduced the valedictorians.
Childhood Education graduate Eddy Rodriguez, the morning valedictorian, described his family's experience leaving the Dominican Republic to make their home in the Brownsville neighborhood of Brooklyn.
"My mother had been pulled out of school in the third grade to work in the field alongside her family," he said, adding that his sister sold fruit on the weekend with their father, "to make ends meet."
Rodriguez, who wants to pursue a career as a middle school teacher in an inner city neighborhood, spoke highly of his experience at BMCC, and thanked one professor in particular, Cara Kronen; he attended her class, "Urban Schools in a Diverse American Society."
As a conservative, says Rodriguez, "I was scared to opine in the classroom," but in the end realized "we all had the same goal; to impact positive change for the educational experiences of kids in the inner city."
Both Rodriguez and the afternoon valedictorian, Liberal Arts major John Portelli, maintained a 4.0 grade point average and are members of the Phi Theta Kappa honor society.
In her introduction of Portelli, Provost Wilks mentioned that he took part in BMCC's Accelerated Studies in Associates Programs (ASAP), as well as services including the Learning Resource Center, Open Computer labs and The Writing Center. His volunteer efforts included helping out with the Food Bank of New York.
Born in New York City, Portelli spent his high school years in Malta, before moving back there.
"Where I lived in Malta, everyone was Maltese, so the ideas and opinions weren't so diverse, and a lack of diversity can create an atmosphere of intolerance," he said, adding that he had the opposite experience at BMCC, where students hail from over 160 countries and classroom discussion have a global perspective.

Pam Rasmussen, Digene Corporation, 301.944.7196, email@example.com.
Seattle, Washington, and Gaithersburg, Maryland, February 16, 2004—PATH and Digene Corp. (Nasdaq: DIGE) today announced a partnership to develop a cervical cancer screening test customized to the unique needs of developing countries. Women in developing countries account for more than 80 percent of women that die from the disease worldwide.
The agreement is part of PATH's Screening Technologies to Advance Rapid Testing (START) project, which was initiated to develop low-cost, easy-to-use, culturally acceptable tests for cervical cancer screening, suitable for areas of the world with minimal resources and medical infrastructure. The START project was initiated in January 2003 with a $13 million grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to PATH.
Under its collaboration with PATH, Digene will develop and manufacture a screening test based on its proprietary Hybrid Capture technology for detecting the human papillomavirus (HPV)which causes most cervical cancers. The company also will obtain necessary regulatory approvals and sell the product on a long-term basis to government and non-profit institutions as well as to the private sector. Using India and China as representative countries, PATH will coordinate the overall clinical study and provide information on and research issues such as women's and other stakeholders' needs and preferences, as well as contribute to cost-effectiveness modeling. The research and development phase of the project is estimated to require about five years, with PATH providing Digene up to $2.2 million upon implementation of the project plan and achievement of specified milestones.
Despite the fact that cervical cancer is highly preventable when pre-cancerous cell changes are detected and eradicated, the vast majority of women in developing countries currently have no access to screening and therapy that can prevent this disease or treat it early when it develops, said Christopher J. Elias, M.D., PATH President. A customized HPV test would provide an attractive alternative to the Pap smear, since it can provide quicker results that more accurately identify women most likely to have cervical cancer or pre-cancerous conditions. Women in developing countries are screened infrequently sometimes just once in their lifetimes and it will be difficult to change that. This means they should get the test that is the most likely to identify who needs intervention, and that will allow rapid analysis.
Rates of cervical cancer, and resulting deaths, have declined in the Western world, where screening has become routine for many women and treatment has benefited from technological advances. In fact, it now is considered one of the most preventable of the cancers afflicting women. However, worldwide, cervical cancer remains the third-most-common cancer, afflicting approximately 470,000 women every year. Of the women with the disease, 230,000 dielargely in developing regions such as South and Central America, sub-Saharan Africa and Southeast Asia. In those regions, cervical cancer has become the leading cause of cancer deaths among women, largely due to limited access to screening and appropriate treatment. One report from the World Health Organization estimated that only about 5 percent of women had been screened for cervical disease in the previous five years, compared to 40-50 percent in the developed world.
Evan Jones, Digene's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, We are grateful to PATH for the opportunity to help make HPV DNA testing available to women living in regions with the least access to this life-saving technologythe developing world. This effort brings us one step closer to achieving Digene's core mission of eliminating cervical cancer so that no woman dies of the disease, no matter where she is located.
Digene is the developer of the proprietary technology that was originally approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for follow-up evaluation of women with abnormal Pap results, and is marketed as the hc2 High-Risk HPV DNA Test. In March 2003, the FDA approved a new use for the product: primary cervical cancer screening in women age 30 and older, in conjunction with a Pap smear. This use is marketed by Digene as the DNAwithPap Test. For more information, visit http://www.thehpvtest.com.
PATH has worked for more than 25 years to bring appropriate health technologies to low-resource regions. For the past decade, PATH has championed the cause of cervical cancer prevention in developing countries, and has worked to bring this issue to the attention of the international health community. In 1999, PATH coordinated with four other agencies to develop the Alliance for Cervical Cancer Prevention (ACCP). For more information, visit http://www.path.org/programs/p-wom/cervical_cancer.htm.
Editor's Note: Research on the extent of cervical cancer and the challenges of preventing/treating it in the developing world will be presented at the 21st International Papillomavirus Conference & Clinical Workshop, Feb. 20-26 in Mexico City. For more information, visit http://www.hpv2004.com.
Digene Corporation (Nasdaq: DIGE), based in Gaithersburg, MD, develops, manufactures and markets proprietary DNA and RNA testing systems for the screening, monitoring and diagnosis of human diseases. Digene's primary focus is in women's cancers and infectious diseases, and its lead product is the only FDA-approved test for the human papillomavirus (HPV). Studies show that high-risk types of HPV are the cause of more than 99 percent of cervical cancer cases. Digene's HPV DNA test is approved for two indications: 1) Routine cervical cancer screening in women age 30 and older, in conjunction with a Pap test. Digene markets the product for this use under the brand name DNAwithPap. 2) Follow-up evaluation of women of any age when a Pap test conducted alone produces uncertain (ASC-US) results. For this indication, Digene markets the product as the hc2 High-Risk HPV DNA Test). For more information on HPV testing, visit www.thehpvtest.com. The company's product portfolio also includes DNA tests for the detection of other sexually transmitted infections, including chlamydia and gonorrhea, and tests for blood viruses. For more information, visit http://www.digene.com.
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are not guarantees of the future, as there are a number of meaningful factors that could cause Digene's actual results to vary materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements. Meaningful factors, which could cause actual results to differ from expectations, include—but are not limited to—the degree of acceptance of HPV testing by physicians, the extent of reimbursement for the HPV test by third-party payers, the success of Digene's marketing efforts and its ability to scale up manufacturing operations to meet any increased demand, as well as other factors discussed in the company's Securities and Exchange Commission filings. For other factors, reference is made to the discussion in Digene's annual and quarterly reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Budget and Economy
The biggest crisis our nation faces is our fiscal future, and we must act soon to start solving these problems.
As you know, I've spent decades talking about these issues. In fact, I've been called everything from "A Budget Cassandra" to a Fiscal Hero to "Mr. Fiscal Responsibility" and "Dr. Doom" because I am such a fierce advocate for balanced and honest federal budgeting. I've served on the Budget and the Oversight and Government Reform Committees and used my position in the fiscally responsible Blue Dog Coalition to advocate for making the hard choices that lead to balanced budgets: cutting spending, closing tax loopholes and being upfront with taxpayers about how the federal government spends their money.
I was one of the first Members to reject earmarks. I've also supported a balanced budget amendment, voted for across-the-board spending cuts and worked to reinstate "pay-as-you-go" rules into law. I've introduced bipartisan bills to eliminate wasteful spending and prevent agencies from duplicating programs that already exist. The main ideas behind my No Budget, No Pay Act, which would stop paying Congress if it fails to pass our budget and spending bills on time, became the law of the land in early 2013. I also have a bill to stop congressional pay if we default.
I will also continue to push for a replacement for sequestration. These are thoughtless cuts, not surgical ones, and only go into effect because Congress failed to pass a comprehensive debt reduction plan. Sequestration was designed by Congress to force action on reducing our national debt. It was never intended as good fiscal policy. So far, only one bipartisan and balanced budget has been introduced in Congress that's big enough to address our problems – theSimpson-Bowles budget alternative that I introduced in 2012. Although it didn't win the support of the majority in Congress, it was praised by budget experts and newspapers all over the country as a serious effort that would actually work.
We need citizens, business leaders and elected officials to work together to protect the future of our nation. From debt ceiling debates to fiscal cliffs, I believe delay is never an option. Every day we wait adds $8 billion to our debt, delays the creation of millions of private-sector jobs and risks additional downgrades of our credit rating. The U.S. already lost its AAA credit rating in 2011 due to congressional mismanagement, creating upward pressure on interest rates. Tragically, Congress has become a risk factor.

"Tariff" is an ugly word. It's not a cuss word or an insult, but it's a government word, used mainly in capitols and legislatures.
If someone "puts a tariff on you," it sounds like a hex. Fortunately, only presidents or Congress can impose tariffs. Think of tariffs as Washington voodoo.
A tariff is not a hex but a tax — or series of taxes — on what other nations try to sell to us. Politicians are not brave enough to call them tax hikes, but they are.
WASHINGTON – Testifying to the U.S. International Trade Commission this morning, U.S. Rep. Jim Cooper (TN-05) denounced the Commerce Department's tariff on a chief component of newsprint, citing the immense financial burden for local and national media organizations that rely on the printed page.
"The damage this tariff will do to the newspaper and printing industries will be catastrophic," Rep. Cooper said in remarks submitted for the record. "Less news will lead to an increasingly distant and ill-informed American citizen."
WASHINGTON – U.S. Rep. Jim Cooper (TN-05) today issued the following statement:
"This bill is fiscal lunacy. In less than two months, $4 trillion has been added to our debt and $1 trillion deficits are guaranteed for the foreseeable future," Rep. Cooper said. "President Trump bankrupted several companies already; now he's trying to bankrupt America. There are responsible ways to fund the government. This definitely was not one of them."
A list of government agencies and how you might be affected during a shutdown.
WASHINGTON – U.S. Rep. Jim Cooper (TN-05) today issued the following statement after voting against the Republican tax bill:
WASHINGTON – U.S. Rep. Jim Cooper (TN-05) today criticized congressional leaders for general inaction and incompetence, citing a long list of missed deadlines, stalled priorities and policy blunders.
Rep. Cooper urged House leadership to clear several must-pass measures, and he pushed for self-policing bills that would hold Congress accountable for inaction and misbehavior.
WASHINGTON – U.S. Rep. Jim Cooper (TN-05) today amplified his opposition to the House Republican tax plan, highlighting specific ways it would hurt Middle Tennesseans in Cheatham, Davidson and Dickson counties.
WASHINGTON – U.S. Rep. Jim Cooper (TN-05) today issued the following statement on the Republican tax plan:
"The Republican tax plan isn't real reform. It's real pain for Tennesseans. It hurts families and adds $1.5 trillion to the debt. Surely America can do better," Rep. Cooper said. "I agree our current tax code is broken, but Republicans should start from scratch and work with Democrats so we can pass a tax bill that can actually become law."
WASHINGTON – As Congress returned from its August recess and Republican majorities failed to develop a plan for funding government, U.S. Rep. Jim Cooper (TN-5) reintroduced a bill that would stop congressional pay in case of an even bigger catastrophe: American default.
"It's our duty in Congress to keep America strong. Risking our nation's credit rating hurts America. Members of Congress should do their jobs, not play political games," Rep. Cooper said. "Shutting down government is shameful. Defaulting on our debt is dangerous."

Tesco Hungary
We make a significant economic contribution to the communities in which we operate, and help to offer employment opportunities to the disabled and long-term unemployed.
We employ over 1,100 people with disabilities and in 2012 we launched our first 'Regeneration store' in Hungary at Debrecen, where over half of the roles have been filled by long-term unemployed candidates.
We have launched our pilot Teen Chef healthy cooking competition. Educating children about healthy eating and cooking has also been the flagship programme of Tesco Hungary through the TeenChef initiative. Over one hundred 8-14 year olds took part in the pilot competition by cooking their favourite healthy meals and sharing the videos or photos online .
We regularly organise collections to support charities and local communities in Hungary. At Christmas, we partnered with the World Food Bank to collect 78 tonnes of food donated by our customers, which were made into food parcels for 15,000 families.
We also help to support Hungarian suppliers, giving them the opportunity to grow their business with us. We hold regional supplier forums that allow small producers and suppliers the opportunity to showcase their products.

In an interview with the Daily Mail, the 42-year-old mother-of-two explained she decided to undergo the procedure because she wanted her breasts to look the way they used to in her "heyday".Sykes also discussed cosmetic surgery in general and said no one should be judged for the choices they make. "It's a very personal decision and I don't judge anybody for choosing to have plastic surgery," the star stated. Sykes has two sons called Roman and Valentino and is currently engaged. Another famous face who has been chatting to the media about her cosmetic surgery recently is former star of US TV show The Bachelorette Trista Sutter. She had a breast augmentation to take her cup size from a B to a C - as well as surgery to remove the bags from under her eyes – and claimed her self confidence has now improved.

MAJOR EXITS AT "YOUNG AND RESTLESS": With Eileen Davidson's unexpected exit as Ashley imminent on "Young and Restless," there's no word yet whether this important role will be recast. It is very likely that, given Stefano DiMera's shocking murder, Davidson may reprise her former "Days of our Lives" role as Stefano's adopted daughter, Kristen Blake, and her many lookalikes, a set of characters she last played during the 1990s.
An upcoming "Y&R" departure that won't generate many tears is that of Yvonne Zima's character of the really, really bad Daisy. Viewers will soon find out if Daniel will be happily reunited with his daughter, or if Daisy flees with baby Lucy.

Monday/13-Apr-15: Just last week, didn't I say to Ed, Looks like we've missed the plague of flies this year. Spoke too soon. They're swarming in the bedroom today, enjoying the warm and sunny weather.
Starting work on last year's taxes, with the idea of doing them all in one go. We'll see.
Still haven't finished reading last month's Time-Life book (Japan), so adding a month to that book and moving the rest out a month. The next is the Caribbean one, and I'm really looking forward to it.
Dinner was Grilled Chicken with Lemons and Couscous (Diaries, p258), first bbq. Easy and pretty tasty. Whole wheat coucous again, not very good planning. We split a magnum classic for dessert.
Tuesday/14-Apr-15: Still sorting tax papers and scanning stuff I've never done over the last year. Ugh.
Tonight was use-up-the-asparagus night, with a half recipe of Linguine with Asparagus and Egg (PastaHarv, p46), very good, kind of a pasta carbonara with asparagus instead of lardons or bacon. I was looking for something in a seldom used book, but didn't succeed. Then a big salad. Then some Soupe Épicée au Chocolate (VPG). I used the wrong chocolate (90%, which needed a bit of powdered sugar added), and just realize that I used 30dl of cream instead of 30cl. No wonder I had to add more and it never got soupy. Oh well, it tasted fine.
Wednesday/15-Apr-15: Yogurt on overday. Shopping after my ENT appointment.
Dinner was supposed to be small and fast, but ended up more elaborate, as these things do. First I made some Prune and Almond Brownies (web), which turned out pretty good, but the recipe is weird. (The original is from Delia Smith, here.) The prunes should have been soaked in armangac; the almonds should have been toasted; both would have been nice. The recipe calls for 330g of sugar. I stopped at 200g, which was fine. Later I saw Delia asks for 225g, which would probably have been ok. Skipping the soaking and the nut toasting made it pretty easy.
Then I made some Crispy Lemon Roasted Baby Artichokes (web), which didn't really work that well. I've never seen anything called baby artichokes here, but there were some very small globe artichokes on sale. So I got two and followed instructions. Not quite as nice I thought they should have been and they could have used another 10 minutes or so in the oven. I made a little sauce with mayo from a jar and some finely minced preserved lemon. That was pretty good.
Then I made a half recipe of Crushed Spiced Carrot Salad (Morocco, p78), which I've made before and we like alot.
This was all to go with a half recipe of Salmon Fishcakes with Garam Masala, Chilli, and Ginger (web), using panko instead of the popped amaranth seeds. Good stuff this. I seem to have been making lots of tasty fishcakes of late. This one was a bit tedious because the recipe called for hand mincing the salmon. Probably the food processor would have worked fine.
Anyhow, all was good, if more work than I intended.
Thursday/16-Apr-15: What a day. Got a good start this morning, hoping to make a major dent in getting our French and US taxes done. Only to discover that one of our accounts had gone haywire in Moneydance. Latest good copy was dated the 12th. And of course I've done lots of work since then getting started on the taxes and just general life. Can't figure out if it was something I did wrong, but not going to waste any more time on it. Have reentered as much as possible and will pick up again tomorrow.
Dinner was fun. Half recipes of Chicken Lettuce Wraps (web) and Jamie Oliver's Broccoli with Asian Dressing (web). Both were really easy, fast, and tasty. Some of the prune brownies for dessert, topped with a good slog of cream. Yum.
Friday/17-Apr-15: Dinner at Café Lombok (Indonesian buffet) before No Direction played. Nothing much happened in our kitchen except for yogurt on overnight.
Saturday/18-Apr-15: Lunch with friends today. Popcorn for dinner. Nothing happened in the kitchen.
Sunday/19-Apr-15: Dinner was Frittata with Asparagus (ClassicItal, p283), using only four eggs. Good stuff. We ate about two thirds of it. Then a big salad. Then some mini magnums.
