PBS's Roadtrip Nation (RTN) made a pit stop in its trademark big green recreational vehicle (RV) on September 27 at The University of North Carolina at Pembroke.
Students waiting in line outside Roadtrip Nation RV
They were looking for additional "roadies" to make their own journey of discovery on the road to a career, said Crystal Heintz, a RTN crewmember.
"Roadtrip Nation asks students to think about how to explore your passions and turn them into a career," Heintz told a crowd of 1,200 at the Givens Performing Arts Center. "The world's a big place with lots of opportunity. Why not see what's out there?"
There was considerable enthusiasm among UNCP students, said Michelle Krivonak, a health and physical education major.
"I had a blast and cannot wait to see if I am picked to 'Go Behind the Wheel' this summer with Roadtrip Nation," Krivonak said. The people who came with Roadtrip Nation were very excited to be able to spread the word about Roadtrip Nation to others who had not heard about it before.
"I would love to be able to experience something as cool as Roadtrip Nation," she said. "I'm glad I went to the presentation and hung out with the cast after their presentation."
UNCP is the only official RTN partner campus in the Carolinas. Sponsored by the Career Center, UNCP joined approximately 100 colleges and universities in partnership with Roadtrip Nation, the grassroots organization that helps college students discover the truth about careers and success.
RTN representatives explained that its grant program allows students to take their own roadtrip and interview people about life and careers. More information is available at: www.roadtripnation.com/htr/grants/.
Roadtrip Nation RV
RTN's Southern Tour will visit 15 universities and colleges, and they will visit 35 institutions nationwide this year. Heintz said she was inspired by Roadtrip Nation's mission, and, after finishing graduate school, she was able to combine her passion for music and inspiring others.
Whether it is a traditional career or one that begins with a road trip, now is the time to start the quest, said Dr. Denisha Sanders director of UNCP's Career Center.
"It's never too early to start your career planning," Dr. Sanders. "Career Services assists UNCP students with all aspects of career planning from choosing a major or career to resume building and interview training."
RTN began in 2001 when a group of recent college grads decided to hit the road in an old green RV to see what else was out there besides the career plans that had been imposed on them by friends and family. After more than 17,000 miles of interviews with leaders in different careers, they learned simple but powerful career advice they had never gotten from their parents or college professors.
The RTN crew captured this advice on camera and turned the experience into a PBS documentary and a movement on college campuses to provide students the same opportunity to learn about careers and success from leaders across the country, said Lori Bumgarner, assistant director of UNCP's Career Center.
"The road trip experience helps students develop networking skills and clarify career goals," Bumgarner said. "College students have the chance to become part of this movement and the annual PBS documentary series through RTN's 'Behind the Wheel' program."
"Behind the Wheel" is RTN's annual summer road trip where three teams of three students each from official RTN campuses are selected to travel across the country in three new green RVs with an RTN film crew that documents the experience for the television series on PBS. "Behind the Wheel" creates a for-students-by-students social movement that exposes this generation to the different ways they can build their careers and their lives.
Every fall semester, RTN tours the country in its big green RV to visit all of their partner campuses to get students involved in their programs and career exploration. One of the reasons RTN was so interested in selecting UNCP as a partner campus is because of the cultural diversity of its student body.
"We've really been looking forward to our visit to UNCP," said Jason Manion, RTN representative. "It's exciting to finally be here and talk with your students. The hospitality and the student interest here has been overwhelming."
For more information about Roadtrip Nation, visit their Web site at www.roadtripnation.com or contact Lori Bumgarner in the UNCP Career Center. Copies of their book "Finding the Open Road" and DVDs of their PBS documentary are available in the Career Center library in Room 210 of the University Center.

http://cryptome.org/0002/cryptome-hack3.htm October 3, 2010 Cryptome: Steps of the Cryptome hack on the morning of 2 October 2010. 1. The Cryptome email account at Earthlink was accessed by unknown means and its access password changed. 2. According to emailed notifications from Network Solutions (NSI) retreived after email access was restored, the hacker requested information about Cryptome's multiple accounts by using the email address. 3. With a password guessed or stolen by unknown means the Cryptome.org management account at NSI was accessed. 4. All 54,000 files (some 7GB) were deleted and the account password changed. 5. NSI was sending emails of the account management modifications. 6. The hack was discovered by lack of access to email or to the Cryptome.org NSI account. 7. A call to NSI support restored all files from a back-up except for the previous two days. 8. An Earthlink online support chat restored email access and showed the NSI emails about management changes. 9. New passwords for Earthlink and NSI were set. 10. Email is not stored at Earthlink. What undelivered email might have been deleted by the hacker is unknown, the NSI and a couple of spam emails were awaiting delivery. 11. The other Cryptome accounts hosted by NSI do not seem to have been affected. 12. This is the second shutdown hack in 14 years. Except the one by Microsoft abusing DMCA. <....> 7 October 2010 Most recent news reports are based on Wired's unsubstantiated allegations of the Cryptome hack, luridly smeared "a breach of Cryptome's secret- spilling files on sources." Wired is known for its hype and distortion of "evidence" and unsubstantiated allegations from publicity-seeking hackers -- Adrian Lamo's preening snitch one among many Wired adores pumping. The alleged Cryptome hackers have been touted by Wired before using the same artfully doctored technique. Cryptome asked Wired's Kim Zetter for copies of evidence allegedly shown to her by those she claimed did the Cryptome hack so it could be examined for legitimacy. She refused, as journalists often do expecting them to be believed as they spin their stories for maximum ad sales. Cryptome believes Zetter is lying about what she has been shown using the hoary defense of protecting sources when actually protecting the right to write a story most appealing to the gullible. And will surely hide the lies behind "constitutionally protected" press shields conveniently arranged by government to keep the press obediently head up ass "simply seeking the truth" in the darkhole. Hmm, that technique has been lately adopted by Wikileaks and its gaggle of media co-conspirators supposedly hard at work doctoring Iraq war files for maximum ad sales following the lucrative Afgan war diary fabrications. Hacker heroes of the Ellsberg-new-media brand -- "most dangerous people in the world" hired by the thousands to suck Tor-grade data for DoD. <...> # distributed via <nettime>: no commercial use without permission # <nettime> is a moderated mailing list for net criticism, # collaborative text filtering and cultural politics of the nets # more info: http://mail.kein.org/mailman/listinfo/nettime-l # archive: http://www.nettime.org contact: nettime {AT} kein.org

Up-to-date commuter rail route schedules can be found on the website of the commuter rail provider of your choice. Paper copies can also be obtained by visiting the provider's ticket offices, if preferred, but are not always available and can be out of date if recent changes have been made.Continue Reading
Sometimes, a paper copy of the commuter rail route schedule is preferred, rather than referencing it online. If a trip to the ticket office to pick one up isn't feasible, many of the commuter rail provider websites offer riders the option of viewing a printable copy. This means the schedule can be both viewed online and printed out on a home or work printer. Many people find this preferable, as the printed copy is easily taken with them on their journey and can be quickly referenced if last-minute changes to their trip itinerary are needed.
Sometimes it is difficult to see commuter schedules on mobile devices, such as a cell phone. A printed copy makes reading the schedules much easier. If the schedule isn't clear or is confusing to read, most commuter rail providers have a customer service telephone number available for riders to call in order to clarify any questions.Learn more about Geography

FISH STICKS: Trout Proves How Cold It Was
We all know it was cold as the so called arctic vortex descended over much of the upper Midwest and eastern states last week. But the Iowa DNR has illustrated just how cold.
Ever wondered what would happen if you put your tongue on a metal surface when it's -22 out? Ask this fish.
The DNR posted the picture on their Twitter account saying the trout got stuck on the aluminum baffle at a Decorah hatchery.
Fittingly, they signed off their Tweet with, "Now that's cold. #Iowa."

Roy Smith knows something about recovering "little by little". In February of 2011, while recuperating from hip replacement surgery, Roy suffered a terrible fall at home resulting in severe spinal cord injuries. He endured over 17 hours of corrective surgery and was hospitalized for three months.
The injuries caused painful muscle spasms and left him without the use of his legs, spatial disorder and a loss of balance that made it hard for him to even sit up. He also lost control of his upper body, making the most basic tasks of daily living almost impossible. When Roy became stable, he was transferred to HealthSouth where he entered the Inpatient Rehabilitation Program.
After his discharge, Roy transferred into the Outpatient Rehabilitation Program. Over the next seven months he made incredible progress. Working in several phases, Physical and Occupational Therapists helped him slowly recover.
In Phase 1, Therapists focused on increasing Roy's trunk control, enabling him to perform activities such as eating, grooming and dressing. Phase 2 focused intensely on building upper body strength and endurance, and enhancing lower body strength to decrease dependence on the use of a Hoyer lift at home. Phase 3 focused on increasing functional activity and independence, and wheelchair mobility training.
Occupational Therapists also worked to teach Roy adaptive techniques so he could perform basic tasks of daily living once again. "Little by little", as Roy would often say, he progressed from total dependence to significant independence with most basic activities. Now, Roy needs only minimal assistance to get in and out of bed. He is also able to propel his wheelchair independently so he can get around by himself.
Everyone at HealthSouth is very proud of everything Roy has accomplished. His unstoppable motivation, spirit of self-advancement and strong heart left an unforgettable impact on his Therapy Team. We know he will continue to move forward thanks to his determination and the unconditional support of his wife.

BOSTON — Massachusetts hospitals have been affected by a national prescription drug shortage that lawmakers, patients and health care workers are calling a crisis. The shortages include medicines used to treat various cancers as well as those used to control blood pressure and ADHD. It means a growing number of patients are not getting the medications they need. In extreme cases, patients have died.
State Rep. Jeffrey Sánchez (D-Jamaica Plain), who heads the Joint Committee on Public Health, said the so-called gray market is a big part of the problem.
Drug companies sell to private distributors as well as hospitals. "Being private distributors they may, you know, calculate the market in a way that they see an increased demand," he said. "In some cases we've heard that they'll stockpile drugs — and not only stockpile drugs, they'll still try and get hospitals and others to purchase at up to 650 percent higher than the market list price."
William Churchill, the director of pharmacy at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, said the health care industry needs to enforce behavioral and ethical changes.
Nothing is going to change "until we get a coalition of pharmacists, physicians, big pharma companies, drug distributors, legislators, regulators and patients together that work collaboratively to work through this process so that we can ensure that drugs are made available in an appropriate way and no hoarding is going on," he said. "We have to come to agreements as health care providers and hospitals and pharmacies that we're going to try to do the right thing."

How to...use old Christmas cards
I have a few Christmas ideas but I'm putting them on hold until at least October. Rob said that I could post now and then re-post closer to - so I'll see what I should do.
But this one I thought I had to post now. I was home yesterday – boo sick – and got a late Christmas card in the mail and made me think of what to do with it. No point putting it up with the others as I should take those down anyways. And then I thought I should post now before people throw out their Christmas cards.
To follow the theme of the first post – don't throw them out.
There is lots you can do with these cards – depending on the picture on them
1. Cut out the image – say of Santa or the Snowman – and use it as a gift card for a present.
2. Make a mini gift box out of it – I'll make one and post the picture later with more details
3. Use parts for scrapbooking. No I'm not scrapbooking yet but I keep wanting to start – at least make a book for Lilo's first year.
4. College and laminate for placemats.
If there is writing on the back (and you will see it, ie: gift card, gift box) then you could glue solid construction paper on the back to cover it.
So in closing don't throw out your Christmas cards – expect the crappy cheesy ones you didn't like in the first place.

I remember my mom cutting out christmas cards every year and I actually did that this past weekend! It's nice to have an assortment to use as gift tags etc... Great tip!
I kid you not, I've saved Christmas cards for probably close to 10 years. I've got them stashed in various drawers/boxes etc., all completely unbeknownst to my hubby. I've just couldn't bring myself to throw them out since they're from good friend or family and for the most part, the only time I have contact with several of the senders. Plus, many cards were also really nice and I thought maybe some day I could pull some out and do something crafty with my boys. Never expected my obsession to go on this long, BUT NOW, I finally have various solutions! Thanks VONE!!!! And the timing of this post is perfect, since I really should actually get going on this now otherwise waiting will put me in the position of not having time to do it when i really need them.
Here goes................

I'm thinking that I might actually do something with my cards this year too. I also have a collection and when Christmas comes who has the time to be crafty.
Once Liz's dress is done and out of the house I will put the decorations away and start cutting up the cards. I'll post some of the creations.

I love arranging parties and when my Mum's 60th was approaching there was no way I was going to let it pass by quietly. I knew that if asked Mum would not want big party and that going the whole hog with a party in a hall and lots of people would not be appreciated, so instead I arranged a small surprise party at our house.
Mum was under the impression that the four of us (Mum & Dad, Aaron and I) were going our for a meal and we came up with a much discussed plan to make sure she believed this until the last moment.We told her in advance that we would pick them up so Dad could have a drink but was wondering how we could then explain driving back to our house!
In the end Aaron went to collect them on his own and told them I was not ready so they had to go back to pick me up, to add some realism to that Dad was a little 'annoyed' as he hates people being late (as do I was we hoped she'd conveniently forget that!) a quick phone call on the way back meant Aaron could tell them I was still not ready and they should go indoors and have a quick drink whilst waiting for me.
Of course I was ready and was waiting with friends and family to surprise her!
There were about 15 of us altogether and as Mum entered I played Stevie Wonder's 'Happy Birthday to you' and everyone stepped out of the kitchen for the surprise..... and surprised she certainly was!
The party was a great success and everyone enjoyed themselves, Mum got loads of lovely presents and cards, and ended up with more teddy bears than a toy shop!

A Windows Update Fix (?) For Windows 7 Users
Windows Update always been a pain for Windows 7 users. It's been a exercise in futility trying to fix it – we have published several possible fixes for the problem, including this one. But nothing seems to work all the time for all users. We think it's a bug in Windows 7 that Microsoft never successfully fixed.
Good old Microsoft has issued another "fix" for those of you using Windows 7 and who are having problems with Windows Update. This update was released in March 2016, but we just became aware of it. It's not going to be released as a Windows Update for Windows 7, so you have to download and install it.
About this update
This update contains some improvements to Windows Update Client in Windows 7 SP1 and Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1…
So, if you're having problems with Windows Update and your using Windows 7, you should give this "fix" a try – it may work. Who knows? You'll know once you try it. And hey, if it works for you, please leave a comment here. And it if doesn't work, leave a comment here too.
You can download this Windows 7 Update Fix from this Microsoft page. Please note, you'll need to know if you're using X86 (32 bit) Windows or X64 (64 bit) Windows. If you're not sure, press Windows Key + R, type MSINFO32 in the Run box and press Enter – they system type will be listed right next to "System type" on the page that open when you open MSINFO32.
Note to Windows 10 users: Don't be tempted. There a reference to Windows 10 on that page, but it's not what you think. It's for Windows Server and it requires a bunch of advanced commands which will boggle your mind. Leave it 🙂

Build Guide by JptodaZ
Not Updated For Current Season

Thank You!

creating helpful guides for the League of Legends community.
Swain Build
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
The Guy Who Plays With Birds
Okay so this is how the build goes... First I start out with buying the ring and a health potion kill some minions off and get some gold... Swain is a pushing character trust me if you walk towards a char they run away cause hes so O.P you want your torment to be the main spell level that up first whenever you can! whenever you cant level up decreptify. Be for you get your ult at level 6 get nevermove this stuns the person your fighting and is very useful whenever you initiate. When i attack i go with an W to initiate which is NeverMove, E which is torment drops there health fast and makes you do more damage multiplies it by 20%, then Q the bird is very usefull slows them and then use your ult to finish them off.
So Next you buy the Soulstealer book i want to get this in the beginning to get more ability power while its still beg game THIS CHAR IS ALL AB so no need to hybrid. Next The boots... <- Self explanatory. Next the rod of ages helps you get more AB and health and mana regen Swain needs mana regen for his ult. Then rylais scepter gives you health and AB. And Finally the almighty Zhonyas ring again its all about ab baby.
Okay im gona tell you how to get out of a bad situation... If your surrounded and your bout to get ****ed us your ult your ult is the most op thing ever you turn into a ****ing hawk send birds out they do a **** load of damage per second then use E,W,Q make sure you time your W right! and run away, that simple and you'll most likely be fully healed and maby get a kill or two:)
So your main combo will be (W)To stop them in place (E) to drain health and o more damage with other spells (Q) To slow and drop there health like its nothing. The reason why i wanted you to have flash and ignite is because when your swain people tend to get away and ignite helps you drop their health faster and swain is a D.O.T char Damage over time so if you add all your dots and add smite in there thats like automatic death and if they runaway useflash and then ult there fcked :) well GLHF!


text: It is often a mystery to workers injured in Iowa about how their weekly check (known as "rate") is calculated. There is also a lot of confusion as many employers and insurance companies tell injured workers that the rate is 80% of their wages. Actually, the workers' compensation rate is based upon what is known as the injured workers average weekly wage, number of exemptions and marital status. Once the average weekly wage is determined then there is a formula which is based upon 80% of the workers spendable earnings before the work injury. To learn more about how the workers' compensation rate is calculated including a link to the chart which will show what your rate should be based upon your average weekly wage go to our question and answer about this topic.

Ben Uri was founded in 1915 in Whitechapel in the heart of the Jewish East End of London by the Russian-born Jewish artist Lazar Berson. It has a fascinating history and is the longest established Jewish cultural institution in Britain. It is no coincidence the histories of the Ben Uri and that of 20th century British art are closely intertwined; the blossoming of the immigrant generations of Jewish artists was mirrored by the development of modernist painting in Britain. The outburst of creativity, which burgeoned in London's East End and gave the country so many of its 20th century masters, including the group now known as the Whitechapel Boys, also gave birth to the Ben Uri.
Ben Uri has the largest collection of British and other European Jewish artists in the world: close to 1200 works by over 300 artists. The collection includes many master works with a strong focus on 20th century and contemporary art. The museum has acquired over 155 works in the past decade and continues to acquire important works by major artists including Frank Auerbach, David Bomberg, Mark Gertler, Solomon J. Solomon, Josef Herman, Emmanuel Levy from the UK; Anna Ticho and Yohanan Simon from Israel; George Grosz and Max Liebermann from Germany, Marc Chagall from France and Ron Kitaj from America. It is also building a new collection of young contemporary artists' work including David Breuer-Weil, Sophie Robertson, Julie Held, Raphael Pepper, Natan Dvir, Yaki Assayag and many more.
In the same way that, back in 1915, the Ben Uri sought to forge lasting links with the developing new movements in British modernist art, it continues today to forge new links with contemporary artists through its International Jewish Artists of the Year Award (IJAYA).
Ben Uri's policy is to curate a diverse range of historical and contemporary exhibitions showing work from its renowned collection and other museums in the UK and abroad. Recent exhibitions include: Bomberg's Relevance (2007); Auktion 392, Reclaiming the Gallery Stern, Dusseldorf, (2007); Isaac Rosenberg and Whitechapel at War (2008), Forced Journeys of Émigré Artists (2009); Jacques Lipchitz (2009); Apocalypse: A Lost Masterpiece by Chagall (2010); The Land of Light and Promise, Ludwig Blum (2011).
Forthcoming exhibitions in the coming season are Josef Herman, The Unknown Years 1938-44, which opens on 20 September, followed by The Soviets, Photography, War and the Shoah 1939-45 which opens in January 2012.
Ben Uri pursues its mission 'to inspire, to connect, to make a difference' by engaging the public-at-large in a variety of programmes: collection, exhibitions, education, publications and web-based activities. Its learning programmes are readily available 'off the internet shelf' to some 25,000 schools across Britain. Online access to the collection via the platform of Europeana and Judaica Europeana is planned for the autumn of 2011. This will provide an ever greater international exposure to this priceless collection of art by European artists of Jewish descent.
The artists featured on this page
Frank Auerbach (born in 1931, Germany)Auerbach, alongside Freud and Kossoff is one of Britain's leading artists. His recurrent subjects are his personal friends and the cityscapes close to his London home in Camden such as Mornington Crescent, Summer Morning 11. Ben Uri has 11 works by Auerbach in its collection, second only to the Tate Gallery in the UK.
David Bomberg (1890–1957)
is today recognised as one of Britain's leading 20th century artists. Along with the artists Mark Gertler, Bernard Meninsky and Isaac Rosenberg, he became known as one of the Whitechapel Boys. His early work engaging in futurism, vorticism and, to an extent, cubism was path-finding. Ben Uri has 14 works by Bomberg in its collection, second only to the Tate Gallery in the UK.
Marc Chagall (1887–1985)
a Russian-French Jewish artist, is often referred to as the quintessential Jewish artist of the 20th century. His works include paintings, book illustrations, stained glass, stage sets, ceramics, tapestries and fine art prints. Ben Uri discovered, identified and acquired Chagall's personal response to the Holocaust titled Apocalypse en Lilas, Capriccio in late 2009. The painting depicts a naked Jew on the cross.
Amy Drucker (1873–1951)
painted atmospheric scenes of London life, including the Jewish East End. The painting illustrated here For He Had Great Possessions was featured on the BBC programme 'Hidden Paintings' in June this year. Ben Uri has 5 works by Drucker in its collection.
Mark Gertler (1891–1939)
was born in the East End of London. In his early work, Gertler addressed traditional Jewish subject matter using local community members as models. He produced some of his most distinguished modernist compositions before 1920. He is known as one of the Whitechapel Boys. Ben Uri has 11 works by Gertler in its collection ― the second largest of any UK museum.
Solomon J. Solomon (1860-1927)
specialised in painting portraits and genre scenes often of monumental scale. He was one of Britain's most successful portrait painters of the early 20th century. Ben Uri has 6 works by Solomon in its collection ― the most in any UK museum.

Girl I wanna talk to you
But only if you want me to
And tell you what I'm goin' thru
'Cause you're under my skin

Last Updated: 02/01/2011Egypt: History in the Making
Amr Abdallah
Dr Amr Abdallah reflects on the ongoing social and political changes in Egypt, noting the remarkably peaceful and democratic nature of the protests, even in the face of police brutality and opportunistic looters, and the real changes these events represent for mainstream media and authoritarian politicians in the country and across the region.
A few weeks ago, an Arab friend told me this joke:
President Mubarak's advisors proposed to him a new project that would bring millions of dollars to Egypt every year. They explained that they conducted a careful assessment of holding the annual Islamic pilgrimage (Haj) in Cairo instead of Mecca. He was surprised, but they assured him that they planned everything. He inquired: "where can accommodate millions of pilgrimages in one place to perform the Haj rituals?" They confidently answered: "In Tahrir Square, Sir!" They explained that they measured it carefully and found that millions can be there at the same time, and that they can use the round garden in the middle for people to circle around it as they do around the Kaaba in Mecca. "Well," he continued to inquire, "what about the ritual of walking seven times between the Safa and Marwa hills?" Again, confidently they explained that the Kasr el Niel bridge was measured, and it is about the same distance as that between the Safa and Marwa hills, and with minor reconstruction it will work very well. "OK, so what about the ritual of throwing pebbles at the Devil column in Menna outside of Mecca?" he asked. They said, "Sir, this is when we will need your help by standing for a couple of days until people finish throwing the pebbles at you!"
Well, the events of the last few days in Tahrir Square, and the Million Person March of Tuesday 1st of February, with the images of millions holding the daily group prayers (like they do in Mecca), while chanting for the removal of Mubarak, all seemed to turn that joke into a prophecy.
Indeed, this is a true revolution conducted with the utmost adherence to principles and practices of nonviolence. As an Egyptian, I cannot describe the emotions and feelings that have engulfed me since the Tuesday demonstrations. I must admit that my people, the young people that is, surprised all of us. Their determination, sophistication, sense of civic responsibility, and graciousness characterized this revolution from the beginning. The chants "Selmiya, Selmiya" (peaceful, peaceful) were emphasized continuously especially when they needed to restrain the emotions of their compatriots. The scene of demonstrators performing the afternoon group prayer in front of police cars aggressively hosing them with water will be a portrayal of nonviolent resistance for years to come. The looting, and the disappearance of police forces from the streets on Friday night, triggered a swift massive formation of neighborhood watches by citizens throughout Egypt.
I was lucky to have planned a visit to Egypt (combination of work and family time) from 24-30 January. I was there for the first week of this revolution, and I cannot imagine how it would have been if I were not with my people in my country during such days. And while I am so proud of my people, especially the young ones, I have become confident that we deserved a better government, a much better one. The government reactions to the protests all reflected a sense of absolute and arrogant power that can decide whatever it pleases, anytime, and with zero regard to the impact of their actions on people- all people not only the protestors. For example, they shut down internet since Thursday 27 January until now, and shut down mobile phone communication for three days. They shut down train service to Cairo on the day of the Million Person March. No regard to people or their needs; the only regard they have is for the regime. They deserve to go, and they deserved to go for sometime.
It is important to realize that the motivation of this revolution is not necessarily economic as it may appear given the poverty and hardship that many Egyptians suffer from. The motivation for this revolution relates more directly to the political manipulation and vicious election rigging by President Mubarak, his son, their entourage, and the National Party. Police brutality and unlawful detention and imprisonment of political dissidents is definitely another factor. It is beyond my comprehension that Mubarak at one point decided to become president for life, and has been working hard to groom his son to succeed him. I have known all the way that the Egyptian people would not let this happen. And they proved me right on this one.
This is a revolution about democracy, sparked by the revolution of our brothers and sisters in Tunisia. And the spark, now a flame, will reach many more Arab countries. We all cannot wait to see where the next revolution will take place in the Arab World. But for sure it is coming.
Finally, a word about media. Egyptian official media, and CNN: Shame on You! Your unethical handling of the revolution, your acting as parrots and puppets of the Egyptian and US governments was exposed by the Aljazeera coverage. It was amazing to switch stations between the three media sources, and see how some media continues to be manipulated and controlled. I feel that some Egyptian journalists and TV personalities are as guilty of tyranny as those in the political regime. But the day of reckoning is coming fast to all of them.
It is now about 11 pm on Tuesday 1st of February. After massive demonstrations by millions allover Egypt, we are now waiting for a speech by President Mubarak. Will he finally step down, and succumb to the people's demands? Well, he will do it right now, or will be made to do it very soon. History has reached a milestone, and there is no return.
God bless Egypt, the people of Egypt, and our young generation with their Facebook and twitters!!

3L Hali Ford was selected to compete on CBS' 30th season of the reality game show, Survivor: Worlds Apart.
In the show, contestants are isolated in the wilderness and compete for cash and other prizes. Contestants are progressively eliminated through voting until only one sole survivor remains and is declared the winner. Here, Ford spoke with UC Hastings about her tough choice to compete on the show and how law school in San Francisco prepared her for this challenge of a lifetime.
How did your law school training give you an edge on Survivor?
Being in law school doesn't just teach you to read and understand a case, it teaches you how to read people and read systems. Law school teaches you how to play a game that gets your clients the results that you are after. I learned a lot at UC Hastings about engaging with people and how the practice of law isn't just about knowing your stuff but about spinning it to achieve your result. I was coming into the game with a multifaceted understanding of how to work within systems like this.
We're all eager to see how the season turns out for you. Are you still going to pursue your legal career?
Deciding to go on Survivor was the biggest decision in my life. I had to turn down a two-year fellowship in a public defense office after graduation. I want to work in criminal defense, and have never been interested in other areas of the law. So I had my dream in my hand and I traded it to go on Survivor. It was a really hard decision, and I shed a lot of tears over it, but that is what I did. One of the consolations is that I expect Survivor would at least be as good a talking point on my resume as the fellowship. And it might put me ahead of the pack in ways that I couldn't be otherwise.
So now you are back to life as a 3L.
I am going to graduate in August if all goes well. Of course I wasn't able to do any school or even any studying last fall during filming, but I worked at a couple of places as I was traveling. Now I am hitting the books hard, doing 17 units this fall and 9 this summer and getting ready to take the Bar.
How did you think the other players would react when you told them you were a law student?
Going into the game, especially after I realized I was on the No Collar tribe, I knew that my background as a 3rd year law student could help me but also could hurt me. I thought players might be suspicious of me, or think that I was smart and calculating. I knew I would need to gel with these people and play a strong social game. I was with a sailing instructor, an artist, a feathers guy… and I thought that they are not going to like a law student.
Why? Did you think they would have a stereotype of lawyers in training?
In criminal defense, something you are a fool not to embrace is that stereotypes are true -- if just for the fact that perception is reality in a lot of circumstances. If you are selecting a jury and you ask prospective jurors if they have anything against people who do drugs, you know you're not going to have an unbiased process. We order our lives with stereotypes and whether or not they are true, they are real. So I knew that the ideas about law students were real and something I had to deal with.
Why are you interested in criminal defense?
I worked at a criminal defense office in Hawaii and I saw people who didn't have any money get turned away. I think that is one of the greatest injustices in America right now, and I gravitate to it. I am intrinsically drawn to underdogs. I like talking to outcast people -- they are more interesting to me -- and when I have an opportunity to get paid to interact with them and bring them justice, that is like my crack cocaine!
What other experiences do you think helped you on Survivor?
Coming to San Francisco from Knoxville, Tennessee and my undergrad in Alabama was the biggest culture shock I ever experienced. I was reeling from it for a year. I was baptized by fire in the rat race by coming to the big city and law school all at once. Being hardened by this experience I saw as a good thing. Oh, and Zumba class. It's a great workout, and you gotta be fit to go on Survivor!
Join UC Hastings 3L Section 3 group for a viewing party in Clara Foltz Lounge on Wednesday, Feb. 25 from 7 - 9:30 pm.

Charles Caleb Colton Quotes About DefeatQuotes about: Defeat
When the frustration of my helplessness seemed greatest, I discovered God's grace was more than sufficient. And after my imprisonment, I could look back and see how God used my powerlessness for His purpose. What He has chosen for my most significant witness was not my triumphs or victories, but my defeat.
Shrewd and crafty politicians, when they wish to bring about an unpopular measure, must not go straight forward to work, if they do they will certainly fail; and failures to men in power, are like defeats to a general, they shake their popularity. Therefore, since they cannot sail in the teeth of the wind, they must tack, and ultimately gain their object, by appearing at times to be departing from it.
Accustom yourself to submit on all and every occasion, and on the most minute, no less than on the most important circumstances of life, to a small present evil, to obtain a greater distant good. This will give decision, tone, and energy to the mind, which, thus disciplined, will often reap victory from defeat and honor from repulse.
We strive as hard to hide our hearts from ourselves as from others, and always with more success; for in deciding upon our own case we are both judge, jury, and executioner, and where sophistry cannot overcome the first, or flattery the second, self-love is always ready to defeat the sentence by bribing the third.

- Baptist Why and Why Not – Introduction
- The Distinctive Baptist Why
- Why The Bible And Not Other Standards
By J. B. Moody, D. D.
Pastor First Baptist Church.
Tampa, Florida.
Know ye not that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. – Rom. 6:3-4.
If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. – Col. 3:1.
THE question as stated indicates the Baptist view, and the "why" calls for the reasons. It will be my aim to clearly express some of the reasons, and to compress them in the fewest words possible for me.
Baptists believe that baptism is symbolical, because it is an outward ordinance, "to be seen of men." There are spiritual qualifications for those seeking the ordinance, but these are preparations for the ordinance, and not the ordinance itself. The visible features of the ordinance are to declare the spiritual features, not to procure them. It expresses a saving faith, not procures it. It expresses repentance not procures it. And so of all other related doctrines. If baptism is for the saved, it is not for the unsaved; if for the believer, it is not for the unbeliever; if for the justified, it is not for "the already condemned." Baptists believe that forgiveness, justification, and salvation are of Christ, through faith, and that this saving and justifying faith must precede baptism and hence the relation these sustain to baptism makes baptism symbolical. Baptists are confirmed in this view from several considerations. I will mention a few.
There is but one plan of salvation for all ages. When the writers of the New Testament argue the plan of salvation by grace, and justification by faith, and other vital doctrines, they prove these doctrines by quotations and references to the Old Scriptures. Take the Epistle to the Romans as sufficient proof of this position. There, Paul goes over the whole ground covered by the gospel, beginning with the fall and ruin of man and proceeding step by step through all the – doctrines of the gospel, and he supports every argument by: "Thus is it written" or "Thus saith the Scriptures;" showing that he was preaching the same gospel that the Old Scriptures contained. So Peter in the house of the Gentile said: "To him give all the prophets witness that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins." Acts 10:43. So Paul in Rom. 3:21-22. Christ and the Apostles preached salvation according to the Scriptures and that meant always the Old Scriptures. When the writer of the Hebrews said, "we are not of them that draw back unto perdition, but of them that believe to the saving of the soul;" he proceeded to define faith-the faith that is "unto the saving of the soul," and then to illustrate it in the persons of the Ancients, beginning as far back as Abel, and Enoch, and when he was through with the exemplars of the olden times, he closed by joining "us" to the list. "Wherefore seeing we (of this time) are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses (referred to in the previous chapter) let us (as they did) lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and letus run with patience the race set before us (as they did), looking (as they did) unto the author and finisher of faith." (Not our faith, but the faith defined and exemplified by them, and us, and which was "unto the saving of the soul.")
If we are saved now as men were saved in the olden times, then salvation does not depend on baptism, and baptism like other outward ordinances becomes symbolic. I use the word symbolic in its comprehensive sense, including "emblem," "type," "shadow," "figure," etc. It is more correct to say that ordinances are typical when they declare prospectively, and symbolical when they declare retrospectively. But is the province of outward ordinances to show or declare, or to procure?
Look first at the Passover, Ex. xiii :8-io "And thou shalt show thy Son in that day saying, this is done because of that which the Lord did unto me when I came forth out of Egypt. And it shall be for a sign unto thee upon thine hand, and' for a memorial between thine eyes, that the Lord's law may be in thy mouth; for with a strong hand hath the Lord brought you out of Egypt. Thou shalt therefore keep this ordinance in his season from year to year." The Passover was a "show" ordinance, a "sign," a "memorial," and it was "because of." Retrospectively it symbolized what was done in Egypt; prospectively it typified "Christ our passover who was to be slain for us." Thus we see the declarative nature and province of this ordinance.
So with the Sabbath, Ex. xxxi:i6-i7, "Wherefore the children of Israel shall keep the Sabbath, to observe the Sabbath throughout their generations for a perpetual covenant. It is a sign between me and the children of Israel forever; for in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed."
Every time the Sabbath is kept in spirit and in truth, two things are declared; first, retrospectively that God made heaven and earth in six days, and rested on the seventh; and prospectively, as we learn elsewhere, that "there remains therefore a Sabbath rest for the people of God" and that we must labor to enter it. Sabbath-keeping does not procure these things, but declares them, in symbol, and type, and thus we learn the province of ordinances.
The ordinance for the ceremonial cleansing of lepers also confirms this view of ordinances. In Lev. 14:2-20 we find that after the leper had been inspected by the priest, and found "the plague of leprosy healed in the leper," which could only be clone by divine power, then the ordinance for ceremonial cleansing was in order. Christ's testimony on this point is unmistakable. See Mark 1:40-45. "And there came a leper to him beseeching him and kneeling down to him said, if thou wilt thou canst make me clean. And Jesus moved with compassion put forth his hand and touched him saying, I will, be thou clean. And as soon as he had spoken the word, immediately the leprosy departed from him and he was cleansed. And he straitly charged him, and forthwith sent him away, saying, see thou say nothing to any man; but go thy way, show thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those things which Moses commanded for a testimony unto them." This seems as though it were written especially for our sakes, that the right view of ordinances might plainly appear to all men. The ordinance did not procure his cleansing, but declared it.
In Hebrews, chaps, ix and x, there is a summing up of these old ordinances, with such explanatory words as these: "The Holy Spirit thus signifying,"(sign-i-fy-ing) ; "a figure for the time then present;" "the patterns of things in the heavens;" "a shadow of good things to come;" "a remembrance again made of sins every year," etc. This is inspired testimony on ordinances, being declarative instead of procurative of what they expressed. Pilate though a Roman had the right conception of ordinances. In publicly washing his hands, he intended todeclare his innocence. He was far from confessing his guilt, and washing that he might be innocent. "He took water and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person." Of course he was not literally washing blood from his hands, for his blood was not yet shed. O, that our opponents knew as well about the nature of ordinances as this heathen governor! Through this door has come about all the perversions of the gospel of grace and of the doctrines of Christ. Instead of going to Christ for salvation, men have been directed to ordinances, and the elements and emblems of these ordinances have been "consecrated," and deified, and thus the world is filled with idolatry in the guise of Christianity. What a duty rests upon Baptists to contend for the ordinances "as symbolic and not necessary to salvation!" Let us thank God, and take courage, as the Protestant denominations are coming more and more to our help. They see our view is correct, when they look at it, not in their creeds, but in the Word of God.
But let us look particularly at the ordinances of the New Testament. Were they ordained to show by symbol, emblem or type, the great fundamental doctrines of the gospel? The Lord's supper "shows" his death (in emblems) till he come. While we do it eis remembrance of him, yet it is clear, that in doing it, wedeclare the fact that we hold him in affectionate remembrance. The supper is not necessary to a remembrance of his death, but necessary to a proper declaration of it. The memory must precede the declaration of it.
Is baptism an exceptional ordinance in this regard? Evidently not; for baptism is called a "figure," a "likeness," a "washing away of sin," which can not be literally done with literal water. It is called a "clothing" a "putting on of Christ," which can be done only symbolically, and not really in baptism, for the Romans were exhorted to put on Christ after they had been baptized (Rom. 12:14) but they were not exhorted to be baptized again; and hence Christ is really put on some other way, which fact can only be symbolized by baptism. Now, since the other ordinances are not necessary to the reality of the things they set forth, so we concluded that baptism is not necessary to the reality of the things it sets forth. We are baptized eis repentance, but so far from repentance depending on baptism, the very reverse is true. We are baptized eis the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, eis Christ, eis the name of Christ, eis the death of Christ, etc.; but none of these depend on baptism, but baptism depends on them. Only the reallydead are to be baptized, hence we are baptized eis death symbolically. If we are baptized eis one body, the one body really exists before our baptism, and our baptism is the formal declaration of it. Then, is it not reasonable to conclude, that the same interpretation should be given to baptize eis remission of sins? If baptizeeis repentance denotes the previous repentance, then does not baptize eisremission denote the previous remission? Christ blood was shed eis remission, but the shedding of that blood was not an outward ordinance. If ordinances declare symbolically what has taken place, and typically what will take place, then the remission of sins is either before baptism, or after baptism, and can not be in baptism.
This view is powerfully confirmed, not only in the Province of Ordinances,but also in those many Scriptures which predicate salvation with all of its accompanying blessings to grace, "through faith, and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not of works, lest any man should boast." All efforts to make pre-baptism faith a dead faith, have resulted in failure, and resemble one cutting off the limb on which he sits; for it effectually makes his baptism a dead baptism.
The woman of whom Christ said: "She loved much because she had been forgiven much," and to whom he said: "Thy faith hath saved thee, go in peace," was a proper subject for baptism. If she had not been baptized, then salvation was predicated of her pre-baptism faith, and her pre-baptism love evidenced her forgiveness. If she had been baptized, then Christ overlooked her baptism, and predicated her salvation of a faith that was not expressed, or "perfected" in baptism, and proved her forgiveness by a love that expressed itself in other ways than baptism. When Christ said: He that believeth not is condemned, but he that believeth is not condemned, he was talking about faith necessary to baptism, for he was addressing an unbaptized man on the subject of salvation. When he said: "He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation, but is passed from death unto life," he was talking of the faith that is pre-requisite to baptism, for he was talking to unbelievers. When Peter said: "To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him should receive remission of sins," he was addressing unbaptized Gentiles, who, hearing this, believed; and God who knows the heart, bore them witness giving them the Holy Spirit as he did to the Apostles, and put no difference between them, purifying their hearts by faith. And when they spoke with tongues and magnified God, then answered Peter: "Can any man forbid water that these should not be baptized who have received the Holy Ghost as well as we." When Paul spoke of "the righteousness of God by faith in Jesus Christ unto all and upon all that believe," he was referring to a righteousness by faith- as "witnessed by the law and the prophets." This faith was expressly "without works," and "without law," and evidently without baptism. So, all the scriptures that predicate salvation and its blessings of repentance, confession, love, etc.; and those promises to prayer, sacrifices and good works. These could not be fulfilled to the unbaptized millions who have repented, believed, confessed, loved, prayed, sacrificed, and continued to the end in good works, if baptism was essential to salvation. If space permitted I would add the testimony of our experience, and personal consciousness, to the obtaining of these blessings according to the promises, and by which we certainlyknow, that baptism is symbolical and in no sense a saving ordinance.

THIS RESTAURANT IS CLOSED Maruko Sushi Restaurant Review: Claiming the space vacated by Matuba, this sushi place offers many of the same staffers and sushi chefs, and that is a crowd pleaser. Fish is very fresh, the kind of freshness one associates with high-end Japanese restaurants, and the chefs are true artisans, presenting food with artful cuts, curls and garnishes: artwork on the plate, and almost too pretty to eat. Service is friendly, nothing curt nor abrupt. At any sushi restaurant, of course, it's a toss-up about which to order: all sushi, all sashimi, a combo, or the rice-rich chirashi sushi, which here is especially appealing. But if you come to Maruko with someone who prefers meat to seafood, don't worry. The kitchen can whip up fried pork, chicken teriyaki, and assorted noodle dishes. You might also want to start with the fiery bites of peppery sea scallops: check the specials blackboard for availability. Note that saké, wine and beer, plus hot green tea, can accompany any meal.
GAYOT's Annual Restaurant Awards honor America's best chefs, as well as promising newcomers and a top restaurateur.

My book manuscript examines how digital electronic computers made it way from the United States to Taiwan through international technical aid programs. Specifically, my book manuscript, provisionally titled "From Suspicious Cargo to the Humming Machine: Tinkering with Computers in Cold War Taiwan, 1959-1971," will explore Taiwanese technocrats, scientists, and engineers' embrace of foreign technical assistance, as well as their struggles over whether and how to become independent from such international assistance. Their struggles were two folded. At one level, Taiwanese technocrats negotiated with technical-aid agencies over what counted as appropriate technical-aid to Taiwan. At another level, Taiwanese scientists and engineers grappled with the newly available but black-boxed computers. Therefore, they experimented and tinkered with mainframe computers and minicomputers to gain a better understanding of these machines in order to further manufacture and fabricate computers.
I held postdoctoral fellowships at the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science, Berlin, Germany and at the National University of Singapore. My recent research project looks at the history of economist Wassily Leontief's inter-industry input-output analysis and its global circulation.

"Rim Haven"
Lynne Montague wrote "Rim Haven," a finalist in the first-book category of the High Plains Book Awards, for her husband and their grandchildren, and for the animals that live year-round in today's suburban Billings near the Montagues' home. The book is packed with photographs detailing the local insects, songbirds, hawks and mammals. Spectacular close-ups portray a sleeping seven-point buck and playful mountain lion kits with their wary mother.
Varied fonts and tiny pen-and-ink drawings of rabbits juggling and catching eggs, and of ladybugs and spiders crawling across the pages invite readers to a visual feast. Drawings at the corners of the pages offer captivating images of rabbits casting their ears in the shapes of various letters — one of the book's unique features meant to engage both adults and children.
But there is more to "Rim Haven" than pictures. Montague's careful cataloguing of birds, butterflies, squirrels, owls and other visitors to her home encourages young readers to hear the animals' screeches, roars and squawks, to touch the images of "trompe l'oeil" eyes on butterfly wings, and to stroke fluffy owls as they nurture tiny owlets.
The text focuses on the interconnected natural world that involves animals' sometimes violent competition for food, breeding rights and territory. Montague explains that young bucks engage in combat on the hill above her house. A fox stoically endures humiliation and abuse in the form of angry pecks and strident squawks from a mother magpie protecting her nest and young. The ferocious hissing and striking attempts of a captured bull snake shock Montague and her husband, as the animal reacts to their presence and to their release of it back into the wild.
Life on the rims can indeed be dynamic, and Montague's stories, though gently told, reveal that it can also be fragile. She recounts the unexpected deaths of two caged rabbits killed by a neighbor's dog; a duckling plucked from the surface of the Yellowstone River by a hungry eagle; and the plight of poults (young turkeys) whose flocks declined as predators swallowed the defenseless birds.
Young readers are invited to question why so many animals visit the Montague home. What are the animals now responding to? Is the drought forcing them closer and closer to yards, birdbaths and hospitable locations in suburban Billings? What will happen as more and more people report bobcats, mountain lions and other large potentially dangerous mammals within the city limits?
Quotations from Jane Goodall, Albert Einstein, Chief Seattle, Michel de Montaigne and others stimulate young readers and adult lovers of nature to investigate their changing world. Such writings expand the scope of Montague's "Rim Haven." As Einstein urges, "Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better."
Montague's photography, painting, drawings, calligraphic rabbit alphabet and engaging stories foster a unique experience of the wild backyard. This book makes reading and learning about the interconnected web of existence fun and exciting.
Jane White lives and writes in Billings.

Second graders Selena Garcia, left, and Heaven Williams, center, and Ruben Angel, right, use an anemometer and a fan to collect data so that they can predict weather for a lesson.
The Blade/Amy E. Voigt

There are plenty of important reasons to know what kind of weather to expect.
"If it's warm, I can play with my cousins and go to my friend's house," said Selena Garcia, a second-grader at Queen of Apostles School in Toledo.
"When it's warm, I can play in the pool," chimed-in classmate Miranda Ignat.
"It if snows, you can have a snowball fight," suggested their classmate Isaiah Mercurio.
The second graders Brooke Bradley teaches at Queen of Apostles have been learning about weather since September. The effort is known as "Project-based Learning," and involves a long-term project designed to develop deeper understanding of a topic, instead of a "shallow," or "superficial" understanding, Ms. Bradley said.
At the semester's beginning, students selected an overarching question they wanted answered. Ms. Bradley's students' question was, "How do we know what to wear outside tomorrow?"
Since September the students have built anemometers, wind turbines, windsocks, and rain gauges, and used them to evaluate weather patterns and make forecasts.
They've learned how to use infrared thermometers to record temperatures and designed and engineered their own weather vanes, which they used to record wind direction.
The information collected from their weather instruments and observations is recorded in a journal, said young Ignat. Ultimately the results will be used to create a digital report that will help students determine what to wear outside for the weather.
It's not all a breeze. Sometimes the students encounter problems and have to figure out why their handmade weather instruments aren't working. For example, some students weren't having much luck with the weather vanes they made out of an empty cardboard tissue box and paper towel tube.
"It was hard," 8-year-old Miranda said. "When we had to [test their weather vane] it wouldn't spin all the way."
Fortunately, their teacher and various weather experts were on hand to help. Guests this semester included Kevin Czajkowski, a scientist from the University of Toledo, and Geoff Cornish, a meteorologist for television station WTVG, Channel 13.
Many students were especially excited about viewing photos of, and asking the meteorologist questions about, tornadoes.
After explaining how tornadoes and other weather conditions are formed, Mr. Cornish quizzed students about where they should seek shelter during bad weather.
"We don't want you to be afraid of storms," Mr. Cornish said. "We want you to understand them."

What would be the point then. If God made you believe or showed himself so even the most cynical doubter..... what good would it do?
Um, then we'd know? I thought the debate was whether he existed. If he proved his existence, I would see that as being helpful to the debate.

Sean 'Diddy' Combs hopes to marry one day, but insists he is not ready to make the big commitment yet.
The hip-hop hitmaker has five children with three different former partners and he famously dated Jennifer Lopez in the late 1990s, but he has never wed.
The rapper is reportedly dating singer Cassie, but explains he won't marry until the time is right.
He tells The View, "It definitely would be a dream come true for me to just one day be ready for that.
"I'm not really looking because I know the responsibility that comes with that and I think that a lot of people, they jump into that and they're not honest with themselves. I'm brutally honest with myself... I don't want to get married and not make that woman be the best... I've been close to it and when I'm ready I'll make the announcement, but when I do it, I'm doing it forever."
Combs also believes happiness, not marriage, is the most important element of a relationship.
He says, "I think a lot of people put too much on marriage and not enough on happiness.
"I'm happy, anybody that is in my life is happy... I just want to be happy and I think it's important for you to protect your happiness and to love yourself, because then you can love other people the right way."
