Rapper Drake has been targeted by bootleggers again – his latest release has been leaked online.
The Best I Ever Had hitmaker was due to officially unveil his sophomore project, Take Care, next week, but the full disc was uploaded to the Internet on Sunday.
Drake is choosing to stay upbeat about the leak, encouraging fans to continue supporting the album by purchasing it if they like what they hear.
He wrote, "Listen, enjoy it, buy it if you like it… and take care until next time."
It's the second time Drake has had to contend with music bootleggers – last year his debut album, Thank Me Later, also surfaced online two weeks prior to its scheduled release date.

Careers Education, Information, Advice and Guidance
- The cooperative model has created an environment in which CEIAG (careers education, information, advice and guidance) and work related learning is implicitly embedded.
- The national standards for careers education and guidance have been clearly mapped and operate through a wide range of activities within the curriculum, student participation in governance and community engagement
- The Young Cooperatives initiative is a best practice model of developing work related and enterprise skills
- The vocational post 16 programme is extensive and progressive.
- The Guild vertical tutoring system allows young students to learn from those who are older and so helps sustain the model and succession
Investors in Careers 2014 Award Report
Lipson Co-operative Academy places Careers Education, Information, Advice and Guidance at the very heart of both our curriculum and pastoral care. This is exemplified by the Investor in Careers Award which we retained in 2010, making us one of a few schools to have held it five times with the assessor describing our CEIAG model as exemplary and showing good IAG leadership; all staff engage in delivering IAG from teachers discussing careers relating to particular subject areas and pastoral tutors engaging with students' aspirations as part of learning conversations. Every member of staff can be a source of information, advice and guidance.
The real strength of our CEIAG model is its developmental nature, taking into consideration an individual student's ever changing needs and career aspirations as they progress through their Key Stage 4 and post 16 education; we endeavour to make the transition to post 16 education as seamless as possible and students are continually asked to reflect on their learning and progression, thereby preparing them for success in life outside college. Parents are an integral part of the IAG process, establishing an on-going and effective dialogue between the college and parents so as to meet the best interest of all students.
Nowhere is our commitment to CEIAG more evident than in our professional career staff; in-house career advice is supported by a team of Personal Advisors from Careers South West, offering 1-1 interviews on all education and employment opportunities available to students, including Higher Education, apprenticeships and other work based learning. In addition, all students in Years 9, 10 and 11 have Careers Education lessons, timetabled as part of the compulsory element programme, studying financial literacy and the world of work including the Entry Level qualification in Workplace Hazard Awareness in preparation for work experience.
Careers education, information, advice and guidance is vital to our students and the economy. Young people face more options than ever before in education, training and employment and it therefore suggests that good careers education, information, advice and guidance and work related learning opportunities enables them to make choices wisely and helps them to achieve their potential.

Academia Sinica Chooses GenieATM 6000 to Perform Network Traffic Optimization and Anomaly Detection
GenieNRM today announced that Academia Sinica, the most preeminent research institution in Taiwan, has selected more GenieATM 6000 systems to ensure its network-wide traffic optimization and anomaly detection. In 2007, Academia Sinica kicked off a project to adopt a network traffic analysis and anomaly detection solution for its extended network scale. After months of solution survey and product trial, the Academia Sinica Computer Center adopted GenieNRM's GenieATM solution for its internal and international networks.
In 2011, due to the fast international traffic growing, the Academia Sinica Computer Center decides to further upgrade its international bandwidth as well as the network traffic analysis and anomaly detection solution. In addition to the satisfying functions and applications GenieATM has delivered in the past few years, GenieATM still stands out above the rest solutions in the new round of solution survey and tryout. Therefore, the Academia Sinica Computer Center selected GenieATM again for the larger scale network traffic analysis and anomaly detection project.
Leveraging the GenieATM solution for years, the unique features and values perceived by the Academia Sinica Computer Center include GenieATM's effective anomaly detection and alerting mechanisms as well as its insightful BGP routing analysis capabilities. The Computer Center network manager can identify the attacking sources and victims timely by GenieATM's incident tickets showed via the Web console or via the notification mail. With the detailed traffic information of the detected incidents, the network manager can take further measures precisely to mitigate the anomaly threats. GenieATM offers traffic analysis toward each monitored router interface together with BGP ASN aware intelligence so that the network manager can better tune their BGP routing policies and manage their peering relationships to achieve network traffic optimization.
The repetitive choices of GenieATM from a prestigious research institution like Academia Sinica have validated the fact that GenieATM is the most effective, comprehensive and scalable network traffic analysis and anomaly detection solutions in the industry.

People believe in the glamour of the music business; in which look at this industry as all fun and games. Many feel that once you go into the music business you may assist the most creative people, the top and finest of the finest artists. However, lots of people don't recognize the quantity of work that goes into every song.
Kenny Ray Tevis Atlanta Ga
Everyone desiring to work inside music business must learn how money works; come with an eye for choosing talented artists, know how to find the right people for the right jobs, as well as fulfill a great many other tasks. A lot of people believe that because they went along to school and studied music they will be automatically employed. Regrettably, the music business require those who bring not only great music and great talent together; they need those who are business minded and have music promotional plan capabilities. They appear for individuals who understand that entries must sell since the bills ought to be paid to live.
Kenny Tevis Atlanta Ga
You are probably surprised to learn that actually work experience or earlier experience with your world is the thing that record companies are trying to find. In fact, this is applicable not only to the music business, since this is a trend in all regions of the planet. Major labels specifically do not waste time training those who are fresh away from school or people that have talent but without experience. One could argue that it really is left for that Indies, who are more equipped to discover and develop acts with small budgets. Major labels want someone who has experience in the real world, anyone who has actually gone through rounds, with operational understanding of a. This person must know what it takes to make music, establish strategic promotional plans, someone by having an eye for talent, who are able to tell each time a body's ideal for the workplace, someone who can provide musical direction, and is able to facilitate in conclusion of your music promotion plan.
Although these skills are taught in school, they educate yourself on the theory. Many of us know that things can not be taught in words or by theory. Practice experience overrides theoretical knowledge! That's the reason music business decide to spend money on individuals who are widely experienced. Again, here's the offer; til you have had some actual experience, you won't be given a job. For individuals who wish for a stake in the music business, finding a place where experience can be gained is crucial.

Sue....what a neat style of artwork you have developed. I absolutely love it! :)
Thank you Patti!
I like this batik a lot. You've created beautiful texture and color in it. We like to go to Manzanillo too and have seen lots of these critters there.
I just reviewed your post. Thank you for your favorable comment! Have you been to the IGUANARIO near downtown Manzanaillo? Great place to view 100's of iguanas and hold them too! They ask for donations.
Beautiful! Your style is unique!

The iguana I've seen in Manzanillo, Mexico were always munching on hibisus flowers. I've seen them on the back jungle roads, among the rocks at the Las Hadas Marina and even in the swimming pool at Vida del Mar. Naturally inspired by these cool creatures, I captured this one on silk using the method of batik. Offered here as an original batik on silk and also paper and giclee prints with a vast selection of framing options!

Issa Chomani –
Every day, hundreds of men cross the border from Iran to Iraq in secret, smuggling goods that they then hope to sell at a profit on the black market. They risk everything – arrest, prison, even death in their struggle to earn a living.
The alcohol, cigarettes and illegal drugs found on sale in Iraqi Kurdistan are often the result of smuggling operations from abroad. Shop owners and traders meet up with traffickers in the remote border regions, before bringing back their illegal contraband to the towns and cities of Kurdistan.
According to a report by the Kurdish Press Agency, in 2012 alone Iranian border guards shot and killed around 67 smugglers, wounding at least 40 others. "I have been working for twenty years, but my livelihood has never improved," says Hussein Razayi, a smuggler in his fifties. "You cannot secure a future with this kind of job," he explains, "it's been 20 years now, and I still don't own a house."
But the economic realities of Kurdistan mean that men like Hussein are often left with little option but to carry on their illicit trade. "There is no other work", says Hussein, who regularly brings alcohol, clothes and cigarettes across the border, "so I'm forced into doing it."
But the problem is not simply confined to the older generation. Qubadi Rahmani is a 24-year-old university graduate who, like many other young men his age, has been unable to find work despite his qualifications. "I looked for a job for a long time, but couldn't find anything," he explains.
After two years of trying, Qubadi decided to start smuggling goods into Iraq, feeling he had few alternatives. "We travel over 30 kilometers on foot or on horseback with very heavy loads," he tells us as we accompany him on his way towards the border. "Sometimes we get ambushed along the way, and have to pay bribes to save ourselves". A little further along the track, Qubadi urges us to go back, telling us the route ahead is too dangerous. The smugglers continue onwards, knowing all the while there is no guarantee they will reach their homes in Iraq safely.

|These babies are now these bigger kids you see below.
My heart swells when I look at them. When they are not fighting,bickering, or stomping around they simply take my breath away. Each of them beautiful and talented in their own ways....... When I was younger I didn't want to be a mom. Now I couldn't imagine being anything else!
This year Tim and I had the opportunity to go to Memphis Tennessee through his job. We had a great time and got to stay at the luxurious Peabody Hotel, known for it's ducks!
So anyways I'm back on here because a few friends were asking how I feed my family of 6 on a budget of $400 a month. I'm going to gather receipts and start putting my recipes up for those interested.
I'll do my best to keep up but I'm now the secretary for the band boosters and the meal ministry coordinator for my church. After my husband and kids those will take priority. Like I said- busier than ever.

Our skin goes through a lot on a daily basis. Harsh chemicals in the air, the pollution, dust and sun rays make the situation worse for our skin. While indulging in a fruit facials or other facials is constantly on our minds, we never have enough time to go to a parlor and spend 2 hours on a facial. Nonetheless there are ways to do fruit facials at home to achieve glowing skin instantly.
Just follow these 6 Steps to do your own Fruit facial at home.
The first step is to clean your face thoroughly. While you can wash the face with a mild soap, we suggest using cold raw milk in a cotton ball to wipe off all the impurities. Milk is great as a cleanser and is totally natural, so there are no harsh chemicals. Use the cotton ball in a circular motion to cleanse the skin. After cleansing, wash the face with lukewarm water. Milk helps to remove dirt and grime from the pores and adds an instant shine.
Next step for a good fruit facial is to exfoliate. For this, you will need 1 tablespoon of oatmeal and 1 tablespoon of lemon peel powder or dried lemon peel. Add the two together and make a paste by adding a bit of rose water/plain water. Alternatively you can also use a mixer to make the paste. Take lemon peels, add a bit of water to them and use the mixer to make it into a pulp. Then add the oatmeal to it to make the paste.
After the paste is ready, apply it all over your face using your fingers in a circular motion. Use the paste on your neck area also. Exfoliate for 2-5 minutes using the scrub and then wash off with lukewarm water. Pat dry the face.
Rub some honey on your skin to help it lighten a bit. Honey acts as bleach and helps to lighten skin tone. Wash it off after 10 minutes.
Boil a pan of hot water and use it to steam your face. Let the water stand for 5 minutes and lean over with a towel to keep the steam in. This will open the pores on your skin.
Next take a ripe tomato and mash it into a paste and add some drops of lemon in it. Keep the mixture in a refrigerator for 20-30 minutes and then take it out. Add a teaspoon of honey to it. Apply this mixture on your face and neck. Leave it on for 15 minutes and rinse off with water.
Alternatively mash a ripe banana, add some lemon juice and a teaspoon of honey. mix well and apply on skin. leave on for 15 minutes.
Take a cucumber and make a paste of it. Apply this paste over the face and the neck area. Leave it on for 10 minutes and rinse off with cold water. Pat dry and your home fruit facial is done. you may need to follow up with a moisturizer.
This is how you do a fruit facial at home. Hope the article was helpful.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! It seems very early to be saying that, when I left it felt like Christmas was so far away and now it has already passed. It was such a wonderful Christmas! We were so blessed to spend it with an amazing family from our ward. They are from
Uruguay and
they all speak perfect English (but we still speak Portuguese haha). You guys
got to meet them quickly on Skype but I wish you could really meet them, you
would love their family. They helped to
make Christmas so special. It was still
strange to not be with you guys, especially when I saw you all on Skype. I know
I am where I am supposed to be. I feel
so blessed for this opportunity to serve.
Everyday I learn new things and I learn to love those that I serve even
more. I know that this time is precious
and that it will go by quick (it already has). In just one year I will be close
to coming home. I can't believe that! I
am trying to make the very most of my time here and serve with everything I
have. Guess who came this week??? SISTER
GRUNDVIG!!! She is the best! I love her
so much! I feel like I already know
her. She is so sweet and fun. We went
running together, New Year's goal is to run every other day. I think we can do
it! We are also learning to cook
togetherJ Her mom is like you mom, she loves whole
grain cooking and natural foods. We are
working on learning how to cook healthy things (lentils this week!!) and we
will be going to the market for fruit more often. And now it's getting to be summer here so
there are new types of fruit to try.
Isn't that crazy to think of summer in January?? I still get confused by
that. Portuguese is actually going
really well! I am surprised how fast it came. I think having a native companion
has helped a lot. The only English we
speak is when she's practicing during language study. Her accent in English is
so cute! I am so grateful that I have her as a trainer. She has
taught me so much she is really like my mom here. I can't believe I only have a
few weeks left with her:( We have become so close these last few months
together, I will miss her so much! It's amazing how Heavenly Father puts
people in our lives at just the right time to learn things we need to learn.
She has been perfect for me at this time and I am really so grateful. I have
such a good feeling about 2014! I know it's going to be a year full of miracles
:) As I have been thinking of New Year's resolutions and goals. I
realized even more how precious our time is here on earth. It really is just a
moment in eternity. I want to learn as much as I can in this life, Help those
around me and come to know Jesus Christ and Heavenly Father. These are my
goals this year. I know that when we pray, study and we continually seek to
keep our covenants; the Lord blesses us with his spirit. This guides us
and gives us direction in our lives. I've seen here what a difference the
gospel makes what changes it can bring. I know that each day we can
improve, strengthen our testimony and become more like the Savior. I pray that
you will all make 2014 a year of service, love and growth. Continue to look for
opportunities to learn. Continue on His path, continue to put Him first in
your life I love you so much! I wish you a very happy New Year.
Muito amor from
Sister McKenzie

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – A man died after police say he was shot a dozen times in Philadelphia early Thursday morning.
The shooting happened at about 12:30 a.m. at 23rd and Mifflin Streets in the city's Point Breeze section.
According to investigators, a 22-year-old male was shot 12 times and was pronounced dead a short time later at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania.
"We know there were many shots fired. We found 15 fired cartridge casings from a semi-automatic handgun. We found several projectiles, including the victim's blood," Chief Inspector Scott Small explained.
Police said a suspect was taken into custody not too far from the shooting scene.
Detectives are trying to determine if the incident was caught by any of the surveillance cameras in the area.
The motive was not immediately known. The deadly shooting remains under police investigation.

Theater Review: Jesse Eisenberg's Undescended Asuncion
Jesse Eisenberg's play is "provocative," but does not actually provoke.
Edgar (Jesse Eisenberg) is a quavery pudding of white guilt. First-world self-flagellation is the only decadence he allows himself. Even masturbation, that other, closely related form of self-abuse, is too luxurious for a cold-shower kid like him, and besides, the last time he took himself for a dance, it didn't go well. ("My penis was smaller than ever. It was like it was dried and bagged. Like NASA ice cream or a shriveled apricot.") Beaten bloody and robbed by black teenagers, he pities his attackers with a fierceness: "They're oppressed by everything. Every food-stamp banner and pothole and broken window, you know? Every missing tooth and every amputee... and I would punch me too! I would do something to me, I would."
Asuncion is playing through November 27 at the Cherry Lane Theatre.

Have You Reduced Your Dependence on Cars?
We all know that our car-based society* is not sustainable (not to mention dehumanizing). Smaller, lighter cars and hybrids can help us reduce the amount of energy used per kilometer/mile driven and and cut down on air pollution and smog, but these are not a solution in themselves, just a small band-aid on a pretty big wound. A larger systemic change has to take place at both ends: From the top, policymakers have to show vision and take tough decisions, and from the bottom, individuals have to put pressure on politicians and rearrange their own lives around a less car-intensive paradigm. What we want to know is: what are the steps that you have taken, or that you plan to take, to do your part? Please share your experience and opinions with us in the comments. Update: The Oil Drum has a poll where they ask their readers about transportation. The comments are very interesting and similar to those found here. Check it out.Do you walk? Cycle? Take public transportation? Carpool? Have you contacted your elected representatives about local or national transportation matters? Do you write letters to the editor of local papers? Emails to the mainstream media? Do you use car-sharing services? Do you plan on moving closer to where you work? Telecommuting? Are you part of advocacy groups or NGOs?
*Some interesting statistics via Grist: According to the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, 88.1% of all workers in the USA reported that they used the automobile to get to work, and 79.4% of works drove alone in their cars.
The average annual cost of owning a mid-size car is $8,580 (when driven 15,000 miles/year), the average annual cost of public transportation is $566.40 ($1.50 fare, using monthly passes).

But there are many reasons to view your appearance as your personal real estate.
Like a home, shopping center or office building, your appearance is always present. Its visibility is always noted and it makes a great statement about you. The building's image is like a living business card or personal references. Just as you would not choose to rent office space in a building with broken windows, most people make assumptions about your qualifications based on looks.
I am not talking here about astounding beauty, but the simple act of taking care of yourself.
Taking care of yourself says a lot about you. By presenting yourself in an attractive package, you are demonstrating abilities to care for & manage yourself! View yourself as a "commodity" that is presented all the time -- like buildings -- and create your own personal real estate. It is an investment with great returns.
How To Select Your Appropriate Image
Increasing your personal property value does not mean you must continually present yourself as the Taj Mahal. It means looking as great as you can while still maintaining your function. Let's, again, put this in the perspective of real estate...
Imagine that you are looking for a house. One of the first things you do is think of how many bedrooms you need. Maybe you also need a large yard for your dogs. Does the house need to be located near work or school for your children? These are basic issues of function.
Now, view your beauty in terms of function. For instance, what are your daily activities like? Do you work in a physically demanding job or chase children all day? Perhaps you have a schedule that mandates some "dress up" for entertaining. Maybe you even have multiple roles to think about. Consider what is realistic or appropriate for your life. Jot down a few notes & let's continue.
Next, you consider the looks of the home. Some are drawn to brick, classic columns, ranch styles etc. Some of the reasons are sentimental, but it all comes down to aesthetics.
Ask yourself about the aesthetics of your own personal beauty. What image do you wish to project? Professional? Fun? Drop dead gorgeous? Will you need to create more that one image for the multiple roles you have? Write these ideas down after your earlier notes on function. Once your done, move on to the last step in shopping for that house: Blancing.
Now you have to balance the needs/functions with the visual appeal, and your bank account as well. You need to consider things such as those large lawns & beautiful gardens, can you maintain them? What about the cost to heat that drafty old farm house? And do you really want to keep up with the exterior on that charming Victorian? These are matters of upkeep and money.
Now, before you go and get an estimate for having yourself sided for easier care, read on!
Look at your list of ideas, both the functions and the dreams. So you want to look like a bombshell from the sliver screen, but you are a landscape artist... How do you balance this? Maybe it is as simple as having a great skin care system with sun protection for work, and a cosmetic collection of dramatic looks for other times. The point is to think of what is livable for you.
It is not realistic to expect your home to look like one in Better Home & Gardens, nor your person to look like you were on the cover of Vogue. It is fine to have that "lived in" look -- just don't look like a "fixer upper"!
Easy Investing Tips
What's the number one rule in real estate? Well, actually it is the first three rules: "location, location, location". Just as location is an important function of your home or business, the location of your personal care items makes all the difference. Keep items in the place you use them. If they are handy, you'll do it -- but if you have to go get them, chances are you'll skip it or waste time trying to find them.
1) Keep your cleanser in the shower. (I have a separate bathroom where I wash my face at night, and I keep another bottle there so it is always handy.)
2) If you tend to wear the same shade of lipstick everyday, keep an extra tube of it in your purse, so you always have it with you.
3) If you use special products at nighttime, for your hands & feet for example, keep them bedside. (Few things are more annoying than having to get up in the dark to take care of dry feet!)
4) Group your cosmetics in sets: a set for daily use, by color family and so on. You won't make clashing mistakes & you will save time.
Tips To Keep Household Expenses Down
1) Any product that is made for the face will work on your hands. No need to waste money on "special" products. This includes daily moisturizers with sun protection as well as nighttime creams. So be liberal with your application & massage the rest into your hands.
2) Hair conditioner has many uses. One of my favorites is a soak for manicures & pedicures. Just add a cap-full to warm water & soak! (Also works great on stuck zippers, and to condition leather purses, and nearly a million other things.)
3) Keep your cosmetics clean. Facial oils can build up on applicators, discoloring and even hardening eye shadows & other powders. Keep applicators clean by washing with a tiny bead of antibacterial dish or hand soap. Remember to rinse well. Or use disposable applicators, cotton balls etc., to keep products clean.
Thoughts On Maintenance, Repairs & Such
While I do advocate routine maintenance (such as cleansing systems & sun protection) repair work (lightening under eye circles and firming skin, for example) & even basic redecorating (trying new shades or colors) I do not advocate changing structures.
When you own a cozy cottage, you do not try to change it into a sprawling colonial. Sure there are trends in housing, almost as often as fashion, but you don't move every time a new design comes out in building do you?
You have your own structure & uniqueness. This is key to your look, not something that you keep trying to make into something else. Which is not to say you can't update your look, or try something new. Just keep in mind your needs, & your desires & decide if you are changing for you or some fad that doesn't suit you. Real style is making the most of what you have, not following today's look.
Redecorating Tips
1) You wouldn't buy a new sofa that didn't go with anything else in your home -- unless you purchased a matching or coordinating chair, ottoman etc. So don't do it with makeup either. For example, when trying a new lipstick in a different color family, buy the blush too. (And just like interior design, if you are unsure of what goes with what, ask a professional!)
2) Don't buy an item that is new or on sale on impulse. Always ask yourself what this new look says about you & if it is the image you wish to present.
So start investing in your personal real estate today & you'll get the return on your investment tomorrow.

Making Construction Sites Safe For Workers
McGuinty Government Committed To Preventing Workplace Injuries
Ontario is working to improve safety in high-risk construction trades with a targeted, month-long blitz to protect workers from preventable workplace injuries.
Beginning March 1, inspectors from the Ministry of Labour will visit construction projects employing workers in high-rise formwork, low-rise formwork and masonry, siding and built-up roofing work. The inspections will help ensure that:
- work areas are safe from hazards that cause dangerous slips, trips or falls
- workers are using fall protection systems properly and equipment such as ladders, platforms and scaffolds.
This blitz will be in addition to regular inspections already undertaken by the Ministry of Labour.
Protecting construction workers is part of the McGuinty government's continued commitment to preventing workplace injuries through its Safe at Work Ontario strategy, while creating jobs.
Quick Facts
- In 2010, six workers died and 159 workers were seriously injured in the five targeted trades as a result of falls. Of those injured, nearly half were young workers.
- Since 2008, ministry inspectors have conducted more than 266,000 field visits, 36 inspection blitzes and issued more than 426,000 compliance orders.
- The blitz is part of the province's Safe at Work Ontario strategy to increase compliance with the Occupational Health and Safety Act and its regulations.
Background Information
Additional Resources
"The safety and well-being of all Ontario workers is a priority of our government. It's especially important to make sure we're protecting workers in high-risk trades from slips or falls that would be disastrous for them and their families."
Linda Jeffrey
"These workers lose more time at work due to injuries than workers in many other sectors. Most of the incidents involve young workers. Our goal is to improve worker health and safety and prevent injuries and deaths at Ontario's construction sites."

Joanne Palmer: Holiday horoscopes
December 5, 2007
Steamboat SpringsSteamboat Springs — ARIES (March 21-April 19): Rewrap. Regift. Rejoice. You have found a home for the white elephant you got last year. Now, someone else will have a toilet plunger that sings, "I'm Too Sexy for the Bowl." — ARIES (March 21-April 19): Rewrap. Regift. Rejoice. You have found a home for the white elephant you got last year. Now, someone else will have a toilet plunger that sings, "I'm Too Sexy for the Bowl."
Steamboat Springs — ARIES (March 21-April 19): Rewrap. Regift. Rejoice. You have found a home for the white elephant you got last year. Now, someone else will have a toilet plunger that sings, "I'm Too Sexy for the Bowl."
– TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You're bullish about finances, but don't let your optimism lead you in the wrong direction. Instead, pretend that you're worried about the economy like everyone else and use it to play Scrooge. It's a great excuse to shop at the Dollar Tree and plead poverty. Nobody needs to know about the half million you've got hidden away!
– GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You've been naughty. You've been nice. Which one is it going to be? After all, you love to keep people guessing. But let's face it, you're hoping your honey has seen those car commercials where a new BMW ends up in the driveway with a big bow around it. For a gift like that, you've got to play it sweet and passive, at least until December 26. Go ahead, SMILE, it will be worth it! You can frown again after the holidays!
– CANCER (June 21-July 22): With planet Rudolph moving toward the North Pole, you'd better stick close to home. You know how nervous you get when asked to consider relocation, and the thought that Santa might ask you to circumvent the Earth in one night – well, it's enough to bring back the hives so bad that your nose turns red! Drink cocoa by the fire and lock the doors against intruders; especially those carrying presents and wearing black boots.
– LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You know you're king of the jungle, and you will win the debate over tinsel or no tinsel, twinkle or no twinkle, but there's no need to roar about it.
Recommended Stories For You
Reserve your growling nature for the long lines at the post office, the crowds in the stores and missing packages. Bah, humbug!
– VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You're feeling smug because you've had the presents wrapped (in wrapping paper bought last Dec. 26) since July. Wipe that smile off your face, drop 15 Twinkies into your blender, add a bottle of rum, and see what happens.
– LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)-You are the peacekeeper, neutral in all situations. As soon as your sister-in-law asks, "Did you gain some weight?" remember your mantra: "Don't take the bait."
– SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Remember, living well is the best revenge. Go buy that plasma HDTV, curl up in cashmere, sip your Dom Perignon and beware the fool that knocks on your door.
– SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): If you are looking for a roller coaster ride full of loop-de-loos, you'll find it this year in a house full of insane relatives. Uncle Charlie will be drunk and hanging from the rooftop as he pretends that Santa is coming to take him away to someplace better. Aunt Mildred is sure to ask for the hundredth time, "What did you do to your hair?" Your sister is due for a meltdown of epic proportions since her boyfriend was discovered having an affair with a Victoria's Secret model. Welcome home, Sag!
– CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Last year, you bought your wife Carhartt overalls big enough to fit an elephant. You thought them practical. This year you splurged on a mega flashlight knowing how afraid she is of the dark. You better learn how to run – fast – to the local jewelry store or prepare to sign the divorce papers come January.
– AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Okay, so it's your time of year – joy to the world, love to all people, peace on earth and all the rest. Trouble is, you've got $5 in your bank account and your boss keeps threatening to fire you. Instead of freaking out, fire up your creative abilities. Grandma taught you to crochet, so haul out the yarn and get to work – then call everyone else a shallow, materialistic consumer!
– PISCES (Feb. 19-Mar.20): You are torn between a petal-pink peignoir and asking that money be given in your name for a flock of chickens to remote villagers in the Andes. The chickens win, but you are first in line at the January sales to get exactly what you want in the lingerie department.

KENNARD, Neb. (AP) — Authorities say an 81-year-old car driver has died after a collision with a garbage truck in eastern Nebraska.
The crash occurred around 12:45 p.m. Tuesday on U.S. Highway 75, about 2½ miles (4 kilometers) east of Kennard. The Washington County Sheriff's Office says the woman driving north when her car crossed into oncoming traffic and hit the truck.
The office says the woman died after being taken to an Omaha hospital. Her name hasn't been released. The Sheriff's Office says she lived in Fort Calhoun.
The Sheriff's Office also says the truck driver wasn't injured. He's been identified as 61-year-old Joseph Bauersachs, of Omaha.

At the back-end of last year, I wrote about a recent project from researchers at the University of Lincoln.
They were working to develop a means of controlling large numbers of robots by taking inspiration from the way swarms behave in the animal kingdom.
The researchers have built an artificial pheromone system that they believe is both reliable and accurate. Their system uses an LCD screen and USB camera to simulate several pheromones in the form of visual trails on the screen.
Swarming robots
A separate team, this time from the University of Sheffield, have developed a novel way of programming and controlling a swarm of 600 robots on the fly.
The method, which was documented in a recent paper, could be especially valuable in areas such as driverless technology, where safety is a key concern.
The method was borrowed from existing applications in manufacturing, and provides a nice breakthrough in understanding how large numbers of machines can work well together.
The work is an improvement on previous methods that largely use trial and error to automatically code the robots. This is not only time consuming to maintain, but can also result in undesirable behavior amongst the swarm.
Greater control
By using a supervisory control theory, it reduces the the need for human input, and therefore reduces our fallibility. Tasks were assigned to the robots via a graphical interface, with the machine then translating this for the robots automatically.
The application uses a novel form of linguistics whereby the robots have their own alphabet that's used to construct words that direct their actions.
The supervisory control theory dictates that the robots only function when valid words are created, which is an approach the researchers believe guarantees the robots conform to expectations.
It's increasingly likely that machines will need to program themselves, so being able to do so in predictable ways is an important milestone for us to pass.
The team successfully tested out their approach in swarms of up to 600 robots, with the swarm able to automatically co-ordinate themselves to successfully achieve their outcome.
This would typically require them to gather together, manipulate objects and co-ordinate their actions in logical ways.
"Our research poses an interesting question about how to engineer technologies we can trust – are machines more reliable programmers than humans after all? We, as humans set the boundaries of what the robots can do so we can control their behaviour, but the programming can be done by the machine, which reduces human error," the researchers say.
Of course, the question remains whether the swarms eradicate the kind of errors we are aware of ourselves, or the unintended consequences that have such potentially dire risks for us.
The team plan to further explore the issue however, and their next step is to develop ways that we can communicate and collaborate with the robot swarms, therefore learning from each other, which may reduce the potential risks involved in robots taking the logical, yet altogether wrong, path to achieve their goal.

Recently published research from Business Monitor International, "Lebanon Information Technology Report 2014", is now available at Fast Market Research
Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/08/2014 -- Lebanon's IT market is forecast to be a regional outperformer over the medium term as strong economic growth underpins market expansion. The total size of the Lebanese IT market in 2014 is forecast to reach LBP595.4bn, an increase of 7.4% from 2013 and we forecast strong spending growth over the medium term. Several factors will drive market expansion, including rising incomes, declining device prices, improvements to telecoms infrastructure and modernisation by enterprises and the public sector. However, IT development in Lebanon is subject to significant uncertainty as a result of security issues, which could be destabilising depending on the conflict in Syria. Further, we identify the vulnerabilities of the Lebanese IT industry to cyber security threats, which could undermine confidence.
View Full Report Details and Table of Contents
Headline Expenditure Projections
- Computer Hardware Sales: LBP366.2bn in 2014 to LBP481.2bn in 2017, +8.8% CAGR in local currency terms. Tablet sales are booming, supporting rapid growth in total PC units. However, with consumers increasingly opting for cheaper Android tablets, increases in market value will fail to keep pace with unit growth.
- Software Sales: LBP53.9bn in 2014 to LBP77.1bn in 2017, +12.4% CAGR in local currency terms. There is potential for strong growth in the software market, but piracy remains a major drag on market growth.
- IT Services Sales: LBP175.4bn in 2014 to LBP239.7bn in 2017, +10.2% CAGR in local currency terms. IT services will underperform software in the short term, but as telecoms infrastructure improves we expect outsourcing and cloud services to drive growth higher.
Key Trends And Developments
The poor quality and coverage of telecoms infrastructure, as well as high cost, has been a bottleneck on the development of the IT market in recent years. However, the situation is improving, with operators launching 4G LTE services in 2013, as well as increased international bandwidth lowering the cost of services. This should facilitate wider roll-out of networks and bring down cost to end-users. BMI believes this will be a positive development for the IT market, boosting device demand in the retail market, as well as opening up the potential of the cloud computing market and accelerating the development of Lebanon as an outsourcing destination.

Grocers struggle to keep shelves stocked after storms
Friday, February 12, 2010
At the crack of dawn Thursday morning, the snowy skies finally clearing, Roy Rodman waited anxiously for the milk truck.
Rodman, owner of Rodman's discount grocery store in Northwest Washington, knows customers want exactly what they want when they want it. In a snowstorm, they want milk, lots of milk. He'd ordered 100 cases on Monday -- four times the usual order. And he had been cleared out since Tuesday evening, save the soy and shelf-stable Parmalat.
He had special-ordered another big shipment from his primary dairy supplier in Baltimore for Wednesday, but visibility in the blizzard was so bad that the handful of drivers who showed up weren't allowed out. Wednesday's milk never came.
Washingtonians hit by back-to-back monumental snowstorms have been buying groceries in near hoarding quantities over the past week. They've been quick to post online photos of empty grocery shelves and to trade the latest intelligence on which stores are stocked and which have only Chinese long beans, kohlrabi and rutabagas. One D.C. blog even published photos of a Safeway store depleted of its condom supply.
But behind the empty shelves lies an intricate, nail-biting logistical ballet in which grocers such as Rodman, buyers, drivers, distributors and shelf stockers work overtime, make deals, call in favors, whine, wheedle and cajole to get customers what they want when they want it.
It hasn't been easy. To hedge his bets, Rodman also ordered milk from a secondary supplier, Bozzuto's, a wholesaler out of Connecticut. But that truck wouldn't come until Friday.
Worried, Rodman had been calling Cloverland Green Spring Dairy in Baltimore all Thursday morning. The milk would be deliveredif the dairy could find a driver, Rodman was told, and then only if the driver could make it through the snowy and icy roads. "I'm hoping they'll be coming in a few hours," Rodman said.
At the Whole Foods distribution center in Landover, three produce buyers hunched around a paper-strewn table, laptops open, baseball caps drawn low over their foreheads, talking bananas.
Their shipment arrived by boat earlier in the week and was trucked to their ripener in Jessup. But the ripener closed shop in the storm Wednesday and wasn't scheduled to open until mid-afternoon Thursday, leaving some stores without bananas.
The clementines had been sitting on a boat docked in Philadelphia. "The pier was closed Wednesday," said Jeff Patterson, the Whole Foods produce purchasing team leader, rubbing his face. "They're not open Friday. They don't work weekends and they're closed Monday."
The stories are similar at nearly every area grocery store. Deliveries are backed up because governments or landlords have been slow to clear roads, parking lots and especially loading dock areas.
Joe Strong, who runs the Whole Foods warehouse, waited all day Wednesday for three trucks from California that were stuck in snowy mountain passes in Tennessee and Kentucky, knowing that if the drivers hit 11 straight hours on the road, federal law required 10 hours of rest before they could climb back into their cabs. (They finally arrived before dawn Thursday.)
Managers tell of employees who made herculean walks through the snow or stayed at hotels to be able to stock shelves. "The main thing we want to do is have product in the store," Strong said. "Because when you walk into a store and want a salad, there's nothing more disappointing than not being able to find it."
There is a distinct psychology to storm shoppers, grocers said. The day before a storm, feeding-frenzy conditions prevail. The day before last week's storm and again before Wednesday's blizzard, sales at the area's 37 Whole Foods stores surpassed those the day before Thanksgiving, Strong's busiest day of the year. Frantic store managers rented box trucks or drove their own cars to the warehouse to replenish their stock.
Rodman, whose family has run stores for more than 50 years, has been working longtime contacts by phone for days. When D-cell batteries sold out, he had his supplier in New York send 400 packs overnight and hedged that with a couple of hundred more from a sundries house in Baltimore.
"It's all about relationships," he said.
By 3 p.m. Thursday, the produce truck had come, and the cucumbers and apples were stacked in fat piles. The Tropicana supplier sent an e-mail that deliveries wouldn't be coming all week; anticipating that, Rodman had already ordered juice from Bozzuto's.
He spent the morning flagging down snowplows to clear the narrow side street that leads to his parking lot and loading dock.
The milk truck still hadn't made it by 6 p.m., but Rodman was ready.

Clonmel primary school present amazing show
The Sisters of Charity school in Clonmel took on the timeless classics Annie and The Wizard of Oz for their recent show, and captivated the audience with two amazing performances.
The pupils were accompanied by Laura Cotter on piano and Anthony Lawless on production, who both contributed significantly to the outstanding success of the production.
Pupils, family and friends were transported 'Somewhere over the Rainbow' with Dorothy, Toto and friends for a truly enchanting experience.
Pamela Ryan's 5th class pupils took to the stage for an incredible production of 'The Wizard of Oz'. They delighted with their jaw-dropping performances of favourites such as 'Jitterbug', 'We're off to see the Wizard' and 'Ding Dong the Witch is Dead'. It was an unforgettable triumph that dazzled the senses and touched the hearts of all.
The 3rd class pupils of Marguerite Ryan and Monica Hillery astounded their audience with the classic and well-loved tale of 'Annie'.
It was a resounding success, with the audience being treated to performances of timeless, heart- touching songs such as 'Tomorrow', 'It's a Hard Knock Life' and 'You're Never Fully Dressed without a Smile'.
Annie is a story that portrays how love and hope always win in the end, as Annie never gave up hope for her happy ending.
Many congratulations to all the cast from 3rd class upwards for their fantastic and unforgettable performance that touched the hearts of both young and old.

Multiple reporters pressed State Department Deputy Spokesman Patrick Ventrell on Tuesday about reports of the CIA giving Afghan President Karzai bags of cash for "various purposes" in addition to other U.S. aid. "Doesn't this fuel corruption?" one reporter asked. Ventrell said that he would not make "broad statements" or "judgements" and repeated that nation building has been a common practice in this region and that it takes on many forms. Another reporter argued, "If Russia were to pay cash to India or whoever and said, 'Here, here's some money, we want influence in your country's decision-making and in how you guys run your country,' would you consider that corruption?" Ventrell said that he would not respond to a "hypothetical." "It's not a hypothetical," the reporter retorted.
QUESTION: President Karzai has admitted that his – that the U.S. gives his office cash funds, cash payments, outside of the other aid that the U.S. is giving. Doesn't this fuel corruption?
MR. VENTRELL: We talked a little bit about this yesterday, and I said I didn't have anything for you one way or another. What I can say in terms of our efforts to reduce corruption and to increase transparency – you know that's been a focus of this Department and something we've worked very hard on – and this goes back to the mutual accountability framework to which the international community and the Afghan Government agreed at Tokyo. That was the Tokyo conference. And we expect the Government of Afghanistan will follow through on these important commitments. So we continue to work with our international partners, and we remain committed to supporting Afghanistan's anti-corruption efforts. And this is sort of, broadly speaking, about increasing transparency and accountability, building judicial capacity and rule of law. We've been clear that there's more work to be done, and we'll continue to help Afghan authorities in that regard.
QUESTION: Yes. But if you are providing – if the United States is providing actual cash, which is an invitation to disaster, wouldn't it be a good idea to take the step that the U.S. can take immediately and stop that?
MR. VENTRELL: Well, I said I didn't have any information for you on that one way or another. This Department and the work that we do is to implement sustainable development programs and to help build up Afghan institutions and do so in a way that will help them function as they increasingly – as Afghans take the lead for their security across the country and manage their own affairs. And that's the focus of our efforts in Afghanistan.
QUESTION: Patrick. Do you consider off-the-books cash, paid by one government to another in order to gain influence, no matter who it is; do you consider that a form of corruption in itself?
MR. VENTRELL: Look, I'm not going to make a broad —
QUESTION: If Russia were to pay cash to India or whoever and said, "Here, here's some money, we want influence in your country's decision-making and in how you guys run your country," would you consider that corruption?
MR. VENTRELL: Look, Brad, I'm not going to make a broad sweeping statement on a hypothetical.
QUESTION: No? It sounded like you said —
MR. VENTRELL: What I will say is that in certain —
QUESTION: You're saying that isn't happening anywhere in the world?
MR. VENTRELL: — war zone and transitional economies, there are times where development work and other stuff is done in cash-predominant societies. But I'm not going to make some broad sweeping statement about a hypothetical.
QUESTION: It's not a hypothetical.
QUESTION: Have you not been in touch with the CIA? I mean, have you even asked – have you asked your colleagues over at CIA, there are these reports? I mean, President Karzai's admitted they're true, but have you actually gone to your colleagues in CIA and asked them to state what their policy is and what they've been doing over the last decade?
MR. VENTRELL: I mean, I don't think we talk about our interagency discussions with our colleagues in the intelligence community or elsewhere in the Administration. Be happy to refer you to them if you want more information on their position. Said, go ahead.
QUESTION: Why did they – do you think that they continue the practice when they actually tried this in Iraq? I mean, we understand the urgency that sometimes you need to infuse some funds to deal with urgent conditions and so on, but it had disastrous consequences. So apparently, they are still using it in Afghanistan, not really learning a great deal from lessons learned.
MR. VENTRELL: Look, I'm not going to sort of do a broad historical analysis here. The bottom line is we do our development aid in the best way we can that is sustainable and is helpful to the local societies we're working with.

Theodore John "Ted" Kaczynski, also known as the "Unabomber", is a mathematician,and serial murderer. He is known for his wide-ranging social critiques, which opposed industrialization and modern technology while advancing a nature-centered form of anarchism. Between 1978 and 1995, Kaczynski engaged in a nationwide bombing campaign against people involved with modern technology, planting or mailing numerous home-made bombs, ultimately killing a total of three people and injuring 23 others.
Kaczynski was accepted into Harvard University at the age of 16, where he earned an undergraduate degree. He subsequently earned a PhD in mathematics from the University of Michigan. He became an assistant professor at the University of California, Berkeley in 1967 at age 25. He resigned two years later.
While at Harvard, Kaczynski was among the twenty-two Harvard undergraduates used as guinea pigs in ethically questionable experiments. In the experiment each student received a code name. Kaczynski was given the code name "Lawful". Among other purposes, the experiments were focused on measuring people's reactions under extreme stress. The unwitting undergraduates were submitted to what were referenced as "vehement, sweeping and personally abusive" attacks. Assaults to their egos, cherished ideas and beliefs were the tools used to cause high levels of stress and distress. These experiments were conducted at Harvard University from the fall of 1959 through the spring of 1962.
In 1995, while Kaczynski was mailing out the bombs, he mailed several letters, including some to his victims and others to major media outlets, outlining his goals and demanding that his 50-plus page, 35,000-word essay Industrial Society and Its Future, abbreviated to "Unabomber Manifesto" by the FBI, be printed verbatim by a major newspaper or journal. He stated that if this demand were met, he would then end his bombing campaign. As careful as Kaczynski was to not get caught, even while sending out the letters, he didn't count on his snitch of a brother (with a push from his brother's wife) to tell on him. David Kaczynski first hired a private investigator to descreetly investigate Ted's activities. David then hired an attorney to organize evidence that the investigator had found so that he could turn it into the FBI. Although David tried to remain anonymous while doing so, apparently he wasn't as bright as his big brother because he was immediately identified and questioned, which ultimately led to the capture and arrest of Ted on April 3, 1996.
A federal grand jury indicted Kaczynski in April 1996 on 10 counts of illegally transporting, mailing, and using bombs. He was also charged with killing three people. Initially, the government prosecution team indicated that it would seek the death penalty for Kaczynski after it was authorized by United States Attorney General. David Kaczynski's attorney asked the former FBI agent who made the match between the Unabomber's manifesto and Kaczynski to ask for leniency—he was horrified to think that turning his brother in might result in his brother's death. Eventually, Kaczynski was able to avoid the death penalty by pleading guilty to all the government's charges, on January 22, 1998.Kaczynski is currently serving a life sentence without the possibility of parole.
Ted Kaczynski one page handwritten letter (letter content obscured on scan only) along with original mailing envelope. Letter is signed, "Ted Kaczynski".

The Effect of Connection Flexibility on Steel Members and Frame Stabilityby Stanley D. Lindsey, Stanley D. Lindsey & Assoc, Nashville, TN, USA,
Socrates A. Ioannides, Stanley D. Lindsey & Assoc, Nashville, TN, USA,
Arvind V. Goverdhan, Stanley D. Lindsey & Assoc, Nashville, TN, USA,
Document Type: Proceeding Paper
Part of: Connection Flexibility and Steel Frames
With the advent of Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) and the many existing moment-rotation curves for connections, the use of actual connection flexibility in the design process has become a reality. Section A2. 2 of the LRFD Specification addresses directly the use of known connection flexibility for design. This connection flexibility influences the performance of both the steel beams and columns. In addition, it greatly influences frame stability. This paper discusses some of these influences on beams, columns and frame stability. Comparison to performance with Partially Restrained (PR) and Fully Restrained (FR) connections is made with specific examples. General conclusions and recommendations are made to help the design engineer determine when the use of connection flexibility can be beneficial.
