Rest in Peace, Nancy.
Nancy loved to travel and visited 34 different countries throughout the course of her life, many of them multiple times. Nancy and her daughter Emily Hoyt Crew, were original cast members of the Amazing Race on CBS and shared an incredible adventure together. Nancy's love of travel was not just about seeing highlights, but about understanding the people and their culture. One of her fondest memories was giving pens to children in Cambodia. Whether she was walking on the Great Wall of China, climbing mountains in Patagonia, zip lining in Costa Rica or running through a market in Tunisia, Nancy loved the journey. Nancy enriched the tribal experience for those around her with her brave exploits; from eating a witchetty grub in Australia, to honing her skills at a cooking school in Tuscany. Nancy was willing to truly embrace and experience the richness the various cultures had to offer. She loved cooking, sewing, spending time with her puppies, and dining (especially with her cherished and beautiful friends). She was surrounded until the end with incredible love by her friends and family and will be eternally missed and forever remembered.

I'm Rob, a University student studying Digital Media in the UK. I thought I'd join this community and help in any way I can! :)
I'm a big Dark Angel fan and loved the series very much while it was on. I also used to watch the now cancelled Dead Like Me (on Showtime) which has since been continued in a Direct-to-DVD movie. Perhaps FOX could do that same with Dark Angel although a new season would be even better!
Fox is airing a new series called Dollhouse in the US which has been getting really poor ratings (although it's not that bad) - Dark Angel nearly tripled what the series is currently getting. I hate FOX quite a lot but the could redeem themselves if they stopped cancelling shows, specially ones with decent ratings!
Anyway, I'll be sticking around for awhile so you'll be hear from me again soon!

A.I.G. employees are not the only ones seeking protection: An executive at Merrill Lynch, where bonuses have also come under fire, said that some employees had asked whether the firm would cover the cost of private security for them.
Scott Silvestri, a spokesman for Bank of America, which bought Merrill in December, would not respond to that claim, but said in a statement, "The safety and security of our associates is paramount, and we will always take the appropriate steps.â€
AOptix Technologies Inc., a Campbell, Calif.-based developer of iris recognition systems and ultra-high bandwidth laser communication solutions, has raised $12.9 million in Series D funding. Northgate Capital led the round, and was joined by return backers Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, Clearstone Venture Partners, DAG Ventures, W Capital Partners and Lehman Brothers. The company has now raised over $60 million in total VC funding.
While Gov. Rick Perry's Office of Emergency Management had "generally" ensured that more than $79 million spent between September 2005 and November 2008 was effectively used to combat border crime, the State Auditor's Office found a handful of examples of squad cars, helicopters and other resources that never made it to Texas' southern frontier.
While the ACLU report primarily focused on the activities of border police and sheriff's departments, the auditor's review analyzed spending within the Texas Department of Public Safety, the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department and the Governor's Division of Emergency Management, which together received approximately $142.3 million in state and federal funds between the 2006 and 2009 fiscal years.
To date, the agencies have spent just over half of that money, primarily on salaries, equipment and third-party contracts, the auditor's office found.
Those purchases included:
>> A total of 105 new DPS squad cars that were spread across the state rather than along the border. The department sent 106 used cars to border counties.
>> A $7.4 million helicopter that has since been stationed in Austin. DPS redeployed an old helicopter to Laredo.
>> Five new commissioned officers in the DPS Aircraft Division who were assigned to duty stations outside of the state's six border operational sectors.
The department also failed to establish a planned $1 million Rio Grande Valley Border Security and Technology Training Center slated for Hidalgo County, citing insufficient funds, the audit states.
"The (audit) recommendation indicates that resources should be placed in the most critical areas of the border," DPS management said in its response to the report. "We note that the criticality of various areas of the border varies because of a constantly changing threat."

Lush Lacquer is an indie that has a lot of the type of glitter mixes that I like. I like this one especially because of the bold jewel color mixture.
This is 2 coats of Lush Lacquer: Neon Blast over Maybelline: Shocking Seas. I really loved this, other than the fact that the bigger pink glitters had "taco-ed" a bit -- didn't quite lay flat on the nail.
The Maybelline was quite nice, it took about 2 coats and the application was great. I actually received the core line to review, so I will be posting more NOTDs with them :)

Israel and Hezbollah completed their swap today. The deal, which we described here, brought Israel the bodies of two dead soldiers — Eldad Regev and Ehud Goldwasser. In exchange Hezbollah received six terrorists previously held by Israel. Among them was Samir Kuntar who buthered the Haran family, including a four-year-old girl, in 1979. Israel also gave Hezbullah the bodies of 200 terrorists, agreed to provide Hezbullah with information on four missing Iranian "diplomats," and agreed to release an unknown number of Palestinian terrorists from prison.
As expected, the return of the murderer Kuntar was greeted in Lebanon with elation and celebration. Hezbollah and its Lebanese suporters plainly viewed the swap as a victory, and to a degree it was.
But, as Noah Pollak reports, more distressing than Hezbollah's predictable reaction was that of Lebanon's March 14th movement. Named after the date of the Cedar Revolution, this is a coalition of anti-Syrian political parties and independents in Lebanon. Today, two of its leaders — Fouad Siniora, the Sunni prime minister of Lebanon, and Walid Jumblatt, the leader of Lebanon's Druze, both of whom are embraced as American allies — celebrated the return of Kuntar as a victory for all of Lebanon. Siniora had this to say:
The success of Hizbullah in the negotiations led by a third party is a national success for the party and for the struggle of the Lebanese because it secured national goals which Israel always refused to respect.
Meanwhile, Jumblatt promised that a delegation from his party would welcome and congratulate Kuntar, and called his return a "national occasion." The government followed suit by declaring the day a national holiday. Many, including Pollak, have held out great hope for the March 14 movement. That hope now seems badly misplaced.
I'm far from an expert on Lebanon. However, it seems to me that Israel's failure to defeat Hezbollah during the war two years ago shifted the balance of power in Lebanon to the point that leaders like Siniora and Jumblatt feel constrained to follow Hezbollah's line in matters like this one and many others. If so, and after today's spectacle, Pollak seems correct to question whether it makes sense for the U.S. to consider Lebanon an ally in any meaningful sense.
Meanwhile, the man who brought Israel both the botched war and the one-sided prisoner swap, the corrupt Ehud Olmert, remains in power in Israel.

When we asked for Valentine's Day tech horror stories, some protested that there's another side to things - serendipitous meetings on Twitter, gadgets that won hearts, and love. We want to hear more of these happy Valentine's day love stories.
Maybe that NSA Craig's List ad led to marriage, maybe technology aided a long-distance relationship, or maybe you're both tech-obsessed geeks and a perfect match because of it.
Whatever the details, we want to hear about how gadgets, technology or social networking helped your love life. So send your stories to me with the subject of "Happy Valentine Tales" and we can share the joy.
Of course, we are still taking submissions for Valentine's Day tech horror stories and you can send those with the subject of "Bad Valentine Tales".
Bad Valentine is our own special take on the beauty - and awkwardness - of geek love.

Nantou County Commissioner Lee Chao-ching (李朝卿), a member of the Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT), was detained by judges yesterday on charges of corruption and violations of the Government Procurement Act (政府採購法).
In line with the Local Government Act (地方制度法), Lee's commissionership was suspended immediately by the Ministry of the Interior after the court's decision.
The Nantou District Court ruled yesterday afternoon that Lee must be detained on the grounds that he might escape, destroy evidence or conspire with others on his statements if he was free.
The district court also granted prosecutors' requests to detain the director of the county government's public works department, Huang Jung-te (黃榮德), as well as Lee's secretary, Chang Chih-yi (張誌誼), and a contractor, Wu Chung-chi (吳仲琪).
Prosecutors said they suspected that the county government received kickbacks from contractors who won public projects for fixing road damage caused by various typhoons or floods.
Saying that the county government had conducted a number of road maintenance projects between Sept. 2010 and September this year, prosecutors added they suspected that the county government divided the construction projects into smaller ones, each with a budget of NT$1 million, so it could assign contractors without inviting public tenders as required by the Government Procurement Act (政府採購法).
Prosecutors alleged that Huang and Chang were responsible for contacting Wu and other contractors, and took bribes, while part of the money allegedly later found its way into Lee's pockets.
Almost NT$10 million (US$343,800) in dirty money was identified in 10 projects, prosecutors said.
On Thursday, the prosecutors searched Lee's office and a number of locations, seized NT$300,000 in cash in tea bags from Lee's office and more than NT$1 million in cash in Huang's house, as well as NT$2.4 million in cash in Wu's residence.
According to the prosecutors, Lee was unable to explain the origins of the money. Lee denied any involvement in the corruption, the prosecutors added.
At a separate setting yesterday, KMT spokesman Yin Wei (殷瑋) said the party would start disciplinary procedures to look into Lee's alleged involvement in the case.
Yin said the KMT respects the legal system and President Ma Ying-jeou (馬英九), who doubles as KMT chairman, has instructed the party to look into the situation and handle the case with caution.
However, the KMT late yesterday announced that its Evaluation and Discipline Committee decided to revoke Lee's party rights over his alleged involvement in the case.
Yin said party regulations stated that KMT members should be stripped of party rights if found guilty in a first trial. The committee decided to revoke his party rights now as the public expects politicians to have integrity, he said.
Commenting on the case, Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) spokesman Wang Min-sheng (王閔生) said the DPP urged the Ma administration to immediately launch a comprehensive nationwide investigation into how money earmarked for post-disaster rebuilding projects was spent.
"Budgets were allocated for various post-disaster rebuilding projects to save lives and to improve the livelihood of victims in natural disasters. We can hardly believe that an elected official would receive kickbacks from the projects' contractors," Wang said.

|Barcelona, Spain
|Barcelona, located in Catalonia Spain, is Europe's largest metropolis on the Mediterranean coast, and one of the world's major global cities. Today, Barcelona balances itself on the cutting edge of architecture, intellectual life, and style. Indeed Barcelona won the 1999 RIBA Royal Gold Medal for its architecture, the first time that the winner has been a city, and not an individual architect. The 'Gothic Quarter' is the centre of the old city of Barcelona, where many of the buildings date as far back as the Roman settlement. The Art Nouveau architectural style has a great number of buildings listed as World Heritage Sites. more info
|Sat 16 May 2020
|Marseille, France
|Located on the SE coast of France on the Mediterranean Sea, Marseille is France's largest commercial port, and is also the largest French city on the Mediterranean coast. It serves as a gateway to the lush fertile region of Provence and all its cultural contributions to gastronomic excellence, impressionistic art, and ancient architecture. This cosmopolitan city with 300 days of sunshine a year, clear blue skies and the down-to-earth warmth of its residents, boasts a trading history that goes back more than 2,500 years. It is renowned for its beaches, a wide range of water sports, and particularly teaching scuba diving. more info
|Sun 17 May 2020
|Genoa, Italy
|Genoa is an important seaport in northern Italy. It is also known as 'the Superb One' due to its illustrious past. Today it rises from the sea, with two massive towers providing striking landmarks. It is a real mix of the old and the new with many grand palaces and modest houses with pastel-coloured terracotta-roofs next to each other. Add to this, numerous churches with a variety of architectural styles, lovely seaside villas, several luxurious boutiques, and streets filled with vendors and buyers, and one can understand why it is said: 'Colourful, noisy and busy, that's Genoa'. more info
|Mon 18 May 2020
|Naples, Italy
|Naples is an historic city over 2,500 years old, sitting on the west coast of southern Italy by the Gulf of Naples. Located halfway between two volcanic areas, Mount Vesuvius and Camp Flegrei and with numerous tours and cruise excursions available at the port, one may be inclined to miss out on what Naples itself has to offer. It has some of the world's best opera houses and theatres, and is often called an open-air museum because of its many historic statues and monuments. View finds from Pompeii and Herculaneum, destroyed by Mount Vesuvius in A.D. 79, at the famous National Archaeological Museum. more info
|Tue 19 May 2020
|Messina, Italy
|Messina is a harbour on the eastern coast of Sicily, a short ferry crossing to mainland Italy lying to the east. Due to the several earthquakes that have struck the area on several occasions, the city is almost completely modern. Mostly viewed as the starting point for tours and trips to Taormina and Mount Etna, both of which are truly unforgettable, it also has much to offer in the way of history and beauty. more info
|Wed 20 May 2020
|Valletta, Malta
|Valletta (aka Belt Valletta, Città Umilissima) - traditionally reserved for the historic walled citadel that serves as Malta's principal administrative district - is the capital city of Malta, located in the central-eastern portion of the island. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is essentially Baroque in style, with elements of Mannerist, Neo-Classical and Modern architecture. Don't miss the the majestic St John's Co-Cathedral, with its imposing bastions and a treasure of priceless paintings. The site is nothing short of an open-air museum, yes, living history. The city also provides a stunning snapshot of Malta's Grand Harbour, often described as the most beautiful in the Mediterranean. more info

Take a break onboard the MSC Grandiosa experiencing 7 exciting nights on the Spain, France, Italy & Malta Cruise exploring Europe - Mediterranean. This cruise sails from Barcelona and calls into 6 ports in 4 countries before returning to Barcelona. This particular 4.5 star cruise from MSC Cruises has 30 forward departures. Our exclusive specials start as low as $233 per person/day, twin share. Don't miss out - reserve your cabin today!
MSC Grandiosa Overview
MSC Grandiosa arrived in October 2019, with 200 more cabins than earlier Meraviglia Class ships. MSC Grandiosa will run 7-night cruises that circle the Western Mediterranean. Board the ship any of the major ports on the cruise. The ship has a low draft allowing access to a wide range of ports for future itineraries. This 181,000 GT vessel will be the largest for MSC, carrying 4888 at double capacity (and doubtless many more during school holidays!). This larger Meraviglia Plus Class ship offers more public space per guest.
MSC Grandiosa offers four accommodation grades, price based on the features offered: Bella, Fantastica, Aurea, and Yacht Club. There are 10 stateroom classes, all of which have beds that can be either single or double, spacious wardrobe, bathroom with shower, interactive TV, telephone, Wi-Fi connection (pay), mini-bar, safe and AC. Suites have a whirlpool bath. Deluxe suites add a Nespresso machine. Families also have the choice of two or three interconnecting rooms, for 6 to 10 occupants.
Food and Dining
There will be at least 12 distinct dining venues. The principal dining rooms serve Mediterranean and International cuisines, with open seating for breakfast and lunch, and two seatings for dinner. Dine at fixed times and tables, or change your time daily. Yacht Club guests have their own dining area. There are formal evenings, special meals and times for children, dietary options (ordered before the cruise), and in-cabin Continental Breakfast (some classes pay). The casual Buffet Restaurant is open 20 hours daily. Pizzas and fast food is always on the menu. Just check ahead of time for the pay-extra foods. (Incidentally, instead of paying for cold water in dining rooms, fill your own bottle in your cabin, chill it in the mini-bar, and bring it with you at meal times.)
The line offers a rich program of shows in its two-decked main theatre: Broadway and Las Vegas-style theatrical performances, live music and nightlife. Fast-moving commentary comes in up to six languages. Many productions will be visual rather than spoken. MSC Grandiosa will feature shows from Cirque du Soleil in the Carousel Lounge, with two performances nightly in the circular theatre, along with dining. The ship will have a number of bands and small ensembles to provide music for dancing and background. To get away from the constant activity and noise, retire to Library/Card Room.

The 22-inch ViewSonic VX2265wm FuHzion is simply not worth its $350 price tag. For that price, you get only a DVI connection, poor movie playback quality, limited ergonomic options, and brightness calibration options only for the OSD. Games perform well and the VX225wm includes Nvidia 3D Visions Kit compatibility and built-in sound; however, the kit costs an additional $200 and proved buggy in our tests. In contrast, though the Gateway HD2201, lacks ergonomic options, but its HDMI support, great games and movie performance, and bargain price–as cheap as $150–make it a better buy.
Design and features
The 22-inch ViewSonic VX2265wm's 0.7-inch black bezel has a glossy surface that attracts fingerprints easily. A flush, silver ViewSonic logo adorns the bottom middle of the bezel while on the right and left sides are two WOW SRS stereo speakers. The panel is much thinner than most 22-inch monitors, measuring 0.5 inch. Behind the panel, however, the display extends another two inches. Total panel width measures 20-inches; about average for a screen this size. The footstand is 13.5-inches wide by 8 inches deep and does a poor job keeping the display from wobbling when knocked from the sides. The bottom of the bezel is about 3.5 inches from the desktop, but the screen height is not adjustable. There are also no screen rotation or pivot options, which are useful if you prefer portrait mode. The capability to tilt the screen back 15 degrees is the only included ergonomic feature.
Although onscreen display buttons are included on the ViewSonic VX2265wm, only the brightness and speaker volume is adjustable. What's more, there is no onscreen GUI used for the OSD. The OSD consists of four buttons. The "1" button adjusts the brightness with the help of the "up" and "down" controls and the "2" button adjusts the speaker volume. If you want to change other settings on the monitor, you will have to do so through your graphics card's control panel. That's not as precise as a native OSD would be.
The monitor includes a DVI connection, but lacks an HDMI or even a VGA connection. It is HDCP compatible, so protected HD content can be viewed on it. The lone DVI port is easily accessible with no obstructions or awkward angles to get in the way. The screen has an aspect ratio of 16:10 with a 1,680×1,050-pixel native resolution.
The VX2265wm is one of the first consumer LCD monitors with a 120Hz refresh rate. Supported by a dual-link DVI cable, the 120Hz refresh rate ensures the display's compatibility with the $199 Nvidia 3D Vision Kit stereoscopic 3D glasses. The glasses give 3D games added depth to the image. For example, when playing Unreal Tournament 3, your map and menu items look as though they are stickers, stuck to the screen and the rest of the graphics–characters, vehicles–look much further away.
When we increased the depth to anything above 5 percent, we noticed a lot of ghosting where each polygonal model had a "shadow" next to it. It was so distracting that the games became unplayable over five percent depth. We noticed this in the Nvidia drivers diagnostic test and in the game Unreal Tournament 3. The ghosting effect was lessened, however, when we upgraded our Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTS to the GeForce 9600.
Check out the first take of the Nvidia 3D Vision Kit for more detailed impressions.
Manufacturer's specifications:
Resolution: 1,680×1,050 pixels
Pixel-response rate: 3ms
Contrast ratio: 1,000:1
Brightness: 300cd/m2
Connectivity: DVI
HDCP compliant? Yes
Included video cables? DVI-D Dual link
We tested the ViewSonic VX2265wm FuHzion with its DVI connection. The display posted a composite score of 85 on CNET Labs' DisplayMate-based performance tests compared with the 22-inch Gateway HD2201 and the ViewSonic VLED221wm, which both scored an 86. While the display is sharp and performs well in color accuracy tests, two glaring issues brought its score down. First, its backlight bleed through is very apparent in the lower and top edges of dark screens. The streaking and ghosting test, which detects light or dark shadows trailing an image in areas with large contrast change, was the second problem. During this test, we found noticeable dark shadows trailing the bars on the test screen. This should not be confused with the streaking that is often found in moving images. This test deals only with problems that arise when a display renders large, chunky graphic elements, such as bar graphs or tiled arrangements of open windows.
The ViewSonic VX2265wm FuHzion posted a brightness score of 266 candelas per square meter, according to our test–which is significantly lower than the 300 cd/m2 maximum claimed by ViewSonic. This is lower than the Gateway HD2201's 289 cd/m2 brightness rating as well. Our tested contrast rating for the VLED221wm actually exceeded ViewSonic's 1,000:1 claim by scoring 1,057:1. Bear in mind that the methodology used by most vendors for determining contrast ratio is unknown; however, you can read about CNET Labs' methodology here.
The backlight bleed through mentioned earlier did not adversely affect the graphical quality of World of Warcraft on the ViewSonic VX2265wm FuHzion as it looked just as crisp and colorful as it did on the VLED221wm and the HD2201. Not a surprise, as WoW looks great on pretty much every monitor we test. Unfortunately, viewing the game from a lower-than-optimal viewing angle made the screen darken to the point that we couldn't see graphic details of the game–this is typical of most TN panels and has nothing to do with the game's performance.
Although WoW looked good, the backlight light bleed through was significant enough to adversely affect the display's quality when viewing movies. Thanks to the bleeding, "Kill Bill Vol. 1" DVD on the ViewSonic VX2265wm FuHzion had drab colors and shallow blacks, making the tint of the overall picture look yellowish. The colors don't pop as well as on the Gateway HD2201 and even ViewSonic's own VLED221wm. Turning down the monitor's brightness was not a remedy. We didn't notice any motion-based streaking or ghosting, and the screen remained sharp for a DVD.
The 1080p Blu-ray version of "House of Flying Daggers" suffered for the same reasons stated above.
The built-in speakers located on the bottom of the bezel produced decent sound, but they lack bass. However, they have enough volume to clearly hear dialogue in a movie as long as you're not more than 10 feet away in a normal volume-level room.
We could not play movies at the 120Hz refresh rate–be they DVD or Blu-ray–all we got was a screen of snow. There may be some kind of hack to get around this, but natively, the monitor cannot play movie discs at 120Hz when hooked to a computer.
The optimal viewing angle for a monitor is usually directly in front, about a quarter of the screen's distance down from the top. At this angle, you're viewing the colors and gamma correction as they were intended. Most monitors are not made to be viewed at any other angle. Depending on its panel type, picture quality at nonoptimal angles varies. Most monitors use TN panels, which get overly bright or overly dark in parts of the screen when viewed from nonoptimal angles. The ViewSonic VLED221wm uses a TN panel, and when it is viewed from the sides or bottom, the screen appeared to darken when only a couple inches off from the optimal position. Of course, when viewed from the optimal angle, we had no problems.

The First Grade Book is recommended for students who already have an elementary-level knowledge of the piano keyboard, note names, and reading from the grand staff. It begins with Music Land, an eight measure piece in C major position which has a melody of half notes in the right hand and harmony of half and whole notes in the left. Phrasing, articulation and form are emphasized from the beginning. Students move from the elementary to the intermediate level as they learn such concepts as accidentals, half and whole steps, syncopation, chords in inversions, the C Major scale and pieces in the following keys: C, G, D, A, E, F, Bb, Eb, Ab Major. Hand positions vary widely depending on what key you're in. This First Grade Book includes folk tunes, originals and arrangements of classics by the author.

Cannes 2010 Articles
Cannes Film Festival 2010 news, gossip, photos, and video.
Cardigans and shoes
After a few days spent quivering bitches on the French Riviera, Ryan Gosling arrived back in LA on Saturday in a different but similar cardigan and his white shoes. The same shoes he wore to the party. The same shoes he wore at the photo call. Am jealous. I went to Cannes hauling 2 suitcases for wardrobe. Full Story
Javier celebrates with Pene and ma
Javier Bardem was awarded Best Actor at Cannes last night for his work in Inarritu's Biutiful, sharing the honour with Elio Germano. Javier has been accompanied in Cannes by Penelope Cruz who has remained very low key, declining to walk at official functions, preferring instead to let her boyfriend work the carpet as she has ducked into the palais without fanfare, sitting beside ma in the theatre. Full Story
Charlotte closes Cannes
The antithesis of Kate Beckinsale, and perhaps the only bitch with a fighting chance at making a full body denim dress look presentable, this is the inimitable Charlotte Gainsbourg at the Cannes closing last night to present her latest The Tree, directed by Julie Bertuccelli. Last year Charlotte won Best Actress for her work in Antichrist. Full Story
She's looking better with age
Written by Jacek Kirsten Dunst is by no means old but when I look at these photos of her at the amFAR event last night and earlier in the day with James Franco on a local French television show, I'm thinking she's starting to lose the baby fat and mature a bit. Full Story
Wonky eye cure
Written by Jacek Lainey's always looking out for what she thinks is a wonky eye in photos taken of her. She's not overly vain in the sense that she needs numerous retakes like some people do, but it's on her mind when a shot is taken and she'll usually make a point of evaluating it when she looks at a photo of herself. Full Story
I didn't think it was possible
Written by Jacek Is it just me or is my Marion's choice of…everything last night at the AMFAR gala a huge miss? I didn't think it was possible to take the sexy out of Marion Cotillard but this, gossips, this is probably as close to it as we may see for a long time. Full Story
Single in Cannes
Great timing. After word broke yesterday that Dominic Cooper was up to no good with that skint.ass.scag Lindsay Lohan on Tuesday night, Us Weekly has confirmed that he and Amanda Seyfried are on a "break". Full Story
Ladycrushing on Naomi Watts
Written by Sarah There are so many reasons to like Naomi Watts. She is capable of being one of the most glamorous women on any red carpet, but she understands when it isn't her show and she doesn't steal the spotlight. Full Story
Blue Valentine last night
It's too f-cking much how hot he is. These photos? These photos are distracting you. But they're nothing compared to what it's like in person. When he's right in front of you wearing the sh-t out of a Burberry tux. And tall. And clean shaven. And talking to you. And smiling. And teasing. Full Story
Johnny & Vanessa come for Karl
There was a Chanel party last night. And while many celebrities were in Monaco for the World Music Awards, Karl confirmed the only celebrity who mattered in the South of France – if Johnny Depp comes to your event, your event is made. Johnny was with Vanessa who of course is tight with Lagerfeld. Full Story
Naomi Campbell's Russian beast
Have never had a close look at Vladimir Doronin until this trip. Goddamn he's hot. Laura emailed me from the photo gauntlet at the Wall Street gala the other night and expressed her appreciation for his quiver. The pictures don't do him justice. As for Naomi, she's attended several events this week, and every time she has new hair. Full Story

The benefit of long-term observations from orbit became evident on Thursday with the release of images from NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter showing the subtly shifting motion of large sand dunes on the Red Planet, proving that the surface of Mars is much more dynamic than previously believed.
The atmosphere of Mars is extremely thin — only 1 percent as dense as Earth's. This means that Martian winds would seem barely perceptible to a human, and would have to blow at high speeds to move even the smallest particles on its surface.
Although scientists have known that Mars contains many dunes and vast expanses of sandy regions it has been assumed that these features must move very slowly — if at all — due to the thin air.
Now, images taken at different intervals by MRO's High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment, or HiRISE, clearly show the shifting motion of several large sand dune features (called bedforms) in various locations on Mars.
"Mars either has more gusts of wind than we knew about before, or the winds are capable of transporting more sand," said Nathan Bridges, planetary scientist at Johns Hopkins University's Applied Physics Laboratory and lead author of a paper published online in the journal Geology. "We used to think of the sand on Mars as relatively immobile, so these new observations are changing our whole perspective."
Sandy particles on Earth that could be moved by a 10 mph breeze would require an 80 mph gust of Martian wind. Weather data and climate models have shown that such winds should be rare on Mars. These findings from MRO indicate that either high-speed winds are more common than once thought, or else they are more capable of moving sand around. Or it could be a combination of both factors.
Not all of Mars' dunes are so restless, though. The study found regions where no movement is shown.
"The sand dunes where we didn't see movement today could have larger grains, or perhaps their surface layers are cemented together," Bridges said. "These studies show the benefit of long-term monitoring at high resolution."
Ten years ago the belief was that dunes on Mars are either static or move too slowly to detect. Thanks to MRO and the HiRISE team — and the authors of this new paper — we now know that idea is all just dust in the wind.
More motion on Mars:
- Watch a dust devil spin in Martian arctic
- Watch an eclipse and a sunset on Mars
- Watch a Martian moon pass over the sun
- Watch Martian clouds roll by

There was this moment Wednesday when I really think I knew I probably was not cut out for this.
The summits were fine. I was slow and grunted like most people, but the sunshine, the sweeping vistas, the breathtaking views, all of it I enjoyed. I took it in with my fellow riders. I snapped pictures with my cell phone.
And then we started to come down.
Coming down should be fun. But the headwinds were so blustery, so windy, the dust sticking in our eyes, whipping our bikes, our jackets, our helmets. I pedaled. I pedaled and gravity should have just taken me there without a leg movement. Frankly, after three major passes, my legs were maxed out anyway.
Two people flew off their bikes in front of me from the wind. They were OK, one was standing there adjusting her sleeves. The other was riding along and a gust just took him out. I didn't see the other accident where a man was transported to Swedish Hospital in Denver after a wind gust knocked him down.
I helped one of the fallen bikers dust off his jacket. I weighed what to do.

Another look at James O'KeefeWednesday, June 2nd, 2010
Yesterday I was accused of a Conservative bias simply for publishing the James O'Keefe video. Well, here's the response from Media Matters for a left-wing perspective on the issue:
Surprise! O'Keefe edits out inconvenient footage from new BigGovernment videoJune 01, 2010 12:02 pm ET — 59 Comments
In a video posted on BigGovernment.com, conservative filmmaker James O'Keefe claims that he has uncovered census supervisors in a New Jersey office "systematically encouraging employees to falsify information on their time sheets." Following his pattern of selectively editing videos, O'Keefe excluded a clip — which was subsequently aired by ABC — of a census leader telling workers that they must carefully and accurately report on their time sheets the number of miles they drive when they are doing their enumeration work.
O'Keefe removes relevant information from video posted on BigGovernment.com
ABC airs additional clip showing census crew leader stressing need for accuracy in time sheet reporting. On June 1, ABC's Good Morning America interviewed O'Keefe and Andrew Breitbart. From the June 1 edition of ABC's Good Morning America:
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS (host): But this was the training program. And you concede that in the actual Census program, they were holding workers to much stricter standards. We have some video tape of that as well.
CREW LEADER (video clip): This is not a big issue here, but when you start doing this enumeration thing, you want to make sure you are watching your miles, OK? Set the odometer and every day record it. Don't estimate it, don't guess it. That's part of their ability to audit you, would be to look at your miles, take a look at the places you went to, if it didn't add up, you know, they'll go crazy.
BigGovernment video omits this relevant clip in claiming that "Census supervisors" were "systemically encouraging employees to falsify information on their time sheets." In the ten-minute video posted on Andrew Breitbart's BigGovernment.com, O'Keefe stated that he had been hired as a Census worker and attended two days of training. He said, "What I found were Census supervisors systematically encouraging employees to falsify information on their time sheets." The video includes clips of census leaders, who according to O'Keefe, "didn't seem to have a problem with the discrepancy" of the hours recorded on his time sheet versus the hours he claimed to have worked. O'Keefe omitted the clip aired by ABC, which shows a census leader emphasizing the importance of accurately reporting on miles driven by census enumerators.

Would you believe that this is the seventh day of our Vegetarian Thanksgiving Event? Today Nicole of Special Diet Creations seems to have read my mind, because she created a vegan and nearly raw Dairy-free, processed sugar-free cranberry cheesecake for our event. As I mentioned yesterday, Toddler Yum loves mommy's raw cheesecake recipe. Not only that but she loves sipping heavily diluted cranberry juice with grandma, so I think she would really enjoy this recipe. It makes a beautiful presentation and would be perfect for any vegan guests to your Thanksgiving Dinner. Not only that but it doesn't require the oven so won't compete with your other recipes.
The DH just got back from a two week trip to Israel and I want to spend time with my honey, so I'll make this quick. I had this recipe at some of my favorite adopted "parents'" house. You know how sometime you have parents and siblings etc. that you are born with, and then people that you meet that end up filling that role for you in your life without being related by blood? Well, Vic and Hallie take the role of gluten-free "Mom and Dad" at our local gluten-free potluck events. This is one of my favorite recipes that they made for us "kids" (although their pizza is also spectacular). Hallie is vegetarian, and a wonderful mom to her own daughters and us local kids too. I hope you enjoy it!
Here's some more gluten-free dessert recipes:
Dairy-free Soy-free Pumpkin Pie (use GF crust)
Grain-free Pumpkin Cranberry Upside Down Cake
Gluten-free Banana Blueberry Buckle
Raw Truffle Recipe
Blueberry Pie with Honey Whipped Cream
Cinnamon Apple Cake Recipe- no processed sugar, grain-free
Vic and Hallie's Surprise Cranberry Pie Recipe
1 bag fresh cranberries
1/2 cup Sliced almonds (optional)
1/3 cup Sugar to sprinkle the fruit
3/4 cup Sugar for the crust
2 Eggs
3/4 cup {1-1/2 stick) Butter or margarine (I used 1/4 cup margarine with 1/2 cup butter)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 or 1/2 teaspoon Xanthan gum (or xanthan gum mixed with guar gum)
1 cup of your favorite mild GF flour blend.
This recipe makes one large pie or large cake, or two smaller pies or two smaller cakes. I used one large pie pan and one small gratin type dish.
* Preheat the oven to 325° F. Grease the pie plates.
* Wash the cranberries or other fruit, leaving a little water on them.
* Place the fruit on the bottom of the pie plate. If you use nuts, put them on top of the fruit. Next sprinkle sugar over the top.
* In a mixing bowl, cream the remaining sugar with the eggs and butter. Stir in the vanilla extract and then finally fold in the flour and xanthan gum.
* Pour or spread the batter over the fruit.
* Bake for 35 – 45 minutes or until a cake tester inserted near the center of the crust comes out clean.
* Important step: Cool for 10 minutes and gently loosen the edges. If you are using a springform, it is particularly important to loosen the edges at this point. Wait until the pie cools completely before taking off the springform sides.
I used 1/2 tsp xanthan gum and think I would try 1/4 tsp. next time.
For the GF flour blend, Carol Fenster's or Bette Hagman's work well- I used a Brown rice version of Bette Hagman's featherlight blend, but anything will work. Make sure it has a delicate flavor that won't overwhelm the fruit.
You can use different fruits in this recipe, and adapt the flavorings as desired.
I think the pie tastes best cool, but it's good either way. If you want to be really crazy you can add whipped cream or ice cream on top.

New Videos of 9/11 Attacks Shown by Museum
A camera in Brooklyn points through a chain-link fence at black smoke pouring from one skyscraper, while a plane pierces another. Papers fly through the sky; some of them end up in the filmmakers' hands.
That evening - Sept. 11, 2001 - another camera finds firefighters trudging through dust-caked streets, carrying their helmets or a spare pair of shoes. The spindly facade of the World Trade Center is before them.
The views of the terrorist attacks - one of the most recorded events of all time - are among hundreds of hours of amateur videos, images and stories gathered by the foundation building the memorial. The National Sept. 11 Memorial & Museum launched a Web site Thursday with its collection of citizen journalism of the tragedy and is appealing for more 9/11 stories from all over the world.
Watch: Video of firefighters trudging through streets on 9/11
"They say that 9/11 was the most digitally documented event of all time," said Alice Greenwald, director of the planned museum. "We're asking people everywhere to help us tell the story."
Special Section: September 11, 2001 - Eight Years Later
Visitors will be warned about graphic images - people jumping, human remains, planes piercing the towers - and will have a choice of whether to view them.
Organizers say one of the most difficult tasks they've faced is how to present the most sensitive material. Some of it, with the warnings, will be available online and at the museum, which is scheduled to open in three years.
One victim's family member said such images wouldn't keep him away.
Charles Wolf was in his Greenwich Village apartment when he saw an American Airlines jetliner pass overhead, then crash into the trade center - and his wife's office.
"I and many family members don't want revisionist history, and we don't want this sanitized," Wolf said. "It is very important that people remember what happened that day: This was civilization, people merely at work, caught up in religious fanaticism."
Construction of the museum is moving forward rapidly, said Joseph Daniels, president of the 9/11 Memorial Foundation. The museum and memorial will cover 8 acres, at the street level and underground, graced by 400 oak trees.
The last column pulled out from the rubble has been returned to bedrock. It will serve as a focal point, along with the so-called Survivors' Stairs used by people fleeing the towers.
The foundation has acquired 500 hours of video archives assembled by CameraPlanet, a private team of filmmakers who collected professional and amateur videos from the day and its aftermath.
They include a five-minute video shot in the streets of lower Manhattan on the evening of the attacks, with office stairwells filled with reams of paper and half-open offices with family pictures still inside.
A dust-covered Brooks Brothers logo is in one frame under shattered windows. What appears to be an airliner seat is strewn in the street. "God Bless America! Unity!" is scrawled in the dust of one window.
"Got that?" one videographer asks on the video showing the explosion of the second tower when it's hit by the jetliner.
"What kind of crazy person would .... kill themselves?" another asks as the camera points at the two towers.

Halo obviously has two major components, both of which have been a large part of the franchise's success. Of the two, which do you feel is more integral to Halo's identity? This is something that may have changed over the course of the series and obviously this poll/thread isn't scientific, but I would like to hear your input.
Identity of Halo: Single player or multiplayer?

Halo was the reason why people brought Xbox's over to their friends house. Halo 2 was the game that most people were playing when it came to Xbox Live. It set the standards of what a multiplayer game should be, at least on the console. Companies were still playing catchup on making that fun multiplayer experience even when Xbox 360 came out up until Call of Duty 4 came out.
I say multiplayer.
I say multiplayer.
Posted 14 June 2011 - 05:28 PM
Obviously, Halo, as a game, started out being Campaign-focused. I think the multiplayer was kind of a fluke, but once the multiplayer (unexpectedly) exploded, Halo, as a brand, quickly shifted to being more multiplayer-focused. Lots of people love m cheif and cortona and the Halo universe, which is great, but anyone with the slightest inkling of a brain cell knows that Halo has been such a strong brand for this long because of the multiplayer.
Posted 14 June 2011 - 05:35 PM
Multiplayer made Halo what it is today.
Posted 15 June 2011 - 06:34 AM
Derp. Virtual couch, no question. I've played the campaign of every game except Halo 2 before even touching the multiplayer (co-op for all but ODST and 2), but the majority of each game's value for me has come from multiplayer. Also, I've probably spent more hours on a LAN with Halo 1 than Dax has spent choosing the wrong side of every argument (AR vs BR, Campaign-only remake) and I think we all know that's saying something.
Posted 15 June 2011 - 07:02 AM
To me, I identify more with the campaign side. It's the fiction that forged Halo's identify. It's not some army war game or any number of the faceless FPS's which have come and gone, it's Halo. As Blaze pointed out, multiplayer wasn't as integral to Halo when it launched. After reading up on how multiplayer was almost cut from the game and how basically two dudes single handedly brought multiplayer back from extinction, it's obvious that the multiplayer's popularity was more of a stroke of luck that it actually turned out so well (more from having the gameplay from campaign intact and less from the original, lazily designed maps). Halo 2 is pretty much responsible for modern online console gaming. That last generation game pretty much defined this current generation in terms of player expectations and the online console experience, so it's impossible to discount multiplayer's greater contribution to the franchise's success. You also cannot ignore the fact that Halo has always let you campaign with a buddy. That is multiplayer by definition and it's one of the most respectable achievements of the series. Most games can't even touch the thrilling ride co-op Campaign delivers and has delivered from day one with CE. Multiplayer is the cement that binds the bricks together though and Halo as a franchise, as a brand, needs both. Like Luke (?) stated in one of the early Reach Vidocs, "You come for the campaign, stay for the multiplayer".
Posted 15 June 2011 - 10:07 AM
I voted Campaign for the reasons Dani mentioned. I totally see the argument for multiplayer though.
Posted 15 June 2011 - 10:43 AM
When your average person thinks of a popular shooter, odds are they think of the multiplayer first. The fact that multiplayer is what has defined gaming in society's eyes does not mean that it's what defines the game itself. Really it's a shame that that's the first thing people associate a game's name with, since the campaign is where the message is... where all the art and creativity really comes out (barring forge). Campaign is what counts and defines Halo to me. To the mindless consumer society however, multiplayer is where all the fun is had. So, I have no doubt that multiplayer will remain the most voted for, but I don't think it should ever really be a question. Campaign is what counts.

WASHINGTON - On this, GOP budget guru Rep. Paul Ryan and top Senate Democrat Harry Reid can agree: There won't be a "grand bargain" on the budget.
Instead, the Wisconsin Republican and the Nevada Democrat both say the best Washington can do in this bitterly partisan era of divided government is a small-ball bargain that tries to take the edge off of automatic budget cuts known as sequestration.
Official Capitol Hill negotiations start next week, but Ryan and Reid both weighed in Thursday to tamp down any expectations that the talks might forge a large-scale agreement where several previous high-level talks have failed.
Long-standing, entrenched differences over taxes make a large-scale budget pact virtually impossible, according to lawmakers, their aides and observers who will be monitoring the talks.
Most Republicans say they simply won't agree to any further taxes atop the 10-year, $600 billion-plus tax increase on upper-income earners that President Barack Obama and Democrats muscled through Congress in January. Without higher taxes, Democrats say they won't yield to cuts in benefit programs like Medicare.
"If we focus on some big, grand bargain then we're going to focus on our differences, and both sides are going to require that the other side compromises some core principle and then we'll get nothing done," Ryan, who chairs the House Budget Committee, said.
"So we aren't focusing on a grand bargain because I don't think in this divided government you'll get one."
But a fellow GOP negotiator, Oklahoma Rep. Tom Cole, said Friday that additional revenue could be part of an agreement.
Added Cole: "Both sides would like to deal with the sequester. And we're willing to put more revenue on the table to do that, and we would like to do it with entitlement savings." Cole was not talking about raising tax rates; one option he mentioned would be to give corporations incentive to repatriate untaxed overseas profits.
"The reality is, you're going to have to have a deal here," Cole said, appearing on Bloomberg Television's "Political Capital with Al Hunt" airing Friday night. "And a deal means everybody gives something up."
In an interview Thursday with Nevada public radio station KNPR, Reid, the Senate majority leader, agreed that a large-scale grand bargain wasn't in the cards.
"They have their mind set on doing nothing, nothing more on revenue, and until they get off that kick, there's not going to be a grand bargain," Reid said. "We're just going to have to do something to work our way through sequestration."
Ryan, his party's vice presidential nominee a year ago, and Senate Budget Committee Chairwoman Patty Murray, D-Wash., are two of the key congressional figures in the talks. Both say they're seeking common ground between the sharply different Republican and Democratic budgets.
Common ground, however, is a much different concept than compromise. It involves finding ideas upon which they can agree rather than compromising principles such as Republican opposition to tax increases or the unwillingness by many Democrats to consider cutting future Social Security benefits by decreasing the annual cost-of-living adjustments.
Instead of a broad agreement encompassing tax hikes and structural curbs on the growth of benefit programs like Medicare and Medicaid, Ryan says he's seeking a "smaller, more achievable objective."
The talks, he said, also will focus on alleviating another upcoming round of automatic spending cuts and replacing them with longer-term cuts.
Sequestration mostly hits so-called discretionary spending, the money approved by Congress each year to run agency operations. Ryan wants to cut autopilot-like spending on entitlement programs like Medicare to ease sequestration's effects on both the Pentagon and domestic programs.
"I think we all agree that there's a smarter way to cut spending" than sequestration, Ryan said. "If I can reform entitlement programs where the savings compound annually ... that is more valuable for reducing the debt than a one-time spending cut in discretionary spending."
The White House and Democrats are pressing to include new revenue from closing tax loopholes and infrastructure spending to boost the economy. Before departing the White House on Friday for stops in New York City, Obama discussed the budget process by phone with Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada, House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi of California, Murray and Chris Van Hollen of Maryland, the top Democrat on the House Budget Committee. He did not make a similar call to congressional Republicans.
"Even if we do not have the big grand bargain, if you were to have a medium deal or small deal, those deals could have permanent loophole closures and permanent mandatory savings that would help our permanent long-term fiscal situation," senior White House official Gene Sperling told a business group Friday.
The automatic spending cuts are required because a 2011 deficit-reduction supercommittee failed to reach an agreement. The cuts would carve $91 billion from the day-to-day budgets of the Pentagon and domestic agencies in 2014 compared with the spending caps set by a 2011 budget deal. The Pentagon would absorb almost 60 percent of the cuts.
While the first official meeting of the larger House-Senate negotiating team is scheduled for next week, Ryan and Murray have been talking already.
Republicans are looking at a bushel basket of cuts to Medicare health care providers contained in Obama's budget. They also have voiced support for curbing Social Security cost-of-living adjustments, an idea Obama has backed, but only in the context of a broader deal in which Republicans would allow tax increases. That proposal won't fly in the current talks.
There are also several supercommittee ideas like curbing Postal Service cost overruns, making federal workers contribute more to their pensions and raising premiums on higher-income Medicare beneficiaries.

On Thursday Emmett and I visited Chuck Moffit in Mount Baldy. The town of Baldy is a secret little village tucked up in the mountains next to Claremont – the small town vibe and idiosyncratic lifestyles make it feel similar to Joshua Tree – though with a bit more altitude. Chucks place is a small cabin in the woods that he has completely taken apart and painstakingly put back together again – there are sculptures in all states scattered everywhere both indoors and outdoors everything feels earthy and organic – it is often hard to tell what is coming together and what is coming apart (in the best way possible). Since Chuck has been a two-time HDTS artist my mission was to coax him into giving us a few more affordable works to sell at the HDTS HQ – I was successful in liberating a really nice ceramic floor piece as well as a brass "mountainscape"

ESI website goes multi-lingual
March 2006
By 2006, ESI had developed a new and wider reach, and an evolving ability to combine focus on areas where we built up real expertise with a broadening network of people who knew us, our work and our reputation. Therefore we took and implemented the decision to become a genuine European organisation and having at least part of our website in five languages.
A substantial amount of pages on our website and a number of our reports have since been available in five languages: Bos/Hrv/Srp, Turkish, French, German and English. We are continuously translating more parts of our website as we develop our site further.

Bulls can't buy a bucket in ugly loss to Thunder
The Bulls spent most of Sunday night in Oklahoma City trying to think of a number, between 0 and 20, that would represent an acceptable field-goal percentage.
They were below 20 percent for most of the first half, dipped again after a four-minute dry spell in the third quarter and, needless to say, were smashed by the Thunder 102-72.
After a fourth quarter of garbage time, the Bulls' field-goal percentage soared to 29.1 percent, still a season-low. Nate Robinson went 2-for-14 from the field. Taj Gibson was 2-for-11 and Joakim Noah 2-for-9. Robinson got to the foul line enough to tie Luol Deng with a team-high 13 points.
The Thunder has one of the league's best shot-blockers in Serge Ibaka, so maybe that was a factor in the poor shooting. As a team, OKC had 9 blocked shots.
One of the so-called highlights on the Bulls' side came late in the second quarter when the 5-foot-9 Robinson tried to dunk over Ibaka. It didn't work, but it draw a foul.
When Robinson knocked down both free throws, the Bulls finished a 9-0 run, with 7 points coming at the foul line, to pull within 46-36 with 9.2 seconds left in the first half.
Of course, that was enough time for ex-Bull Thabo Sefolosha to drop in a putback and 3-point play after Deng blocked Kevin Durant's layup attempt.
Trailing by 13 at halftime, the Bulls started the third quarter with a Robinson 3-point play, then went scoreless for more than four minutes and let things get completely out of hand.
Russell Westbrook led Oklahoma City with 23 points, with Durant checking in at 19 points and 16 rebounds.
The best news for the Bulls on this night was ESPN showing footage of Derrick Rose dunking before the game during an individual workout. Rose said last week he'd know if he was ready for game action when he could dunk in stride. This was a solo slam in an empty gym, not a 5-on-5 scrimmage, but it could be a sign that Rose is getting close to a return.
The Bulls have three straight home games this week, starting Tuesday against Cleveland.
As well as they've done without Rose this season, this performance was another reminder how lucky they are to play in the East. Against Western Conference opponents, the Bulls have been swept by Oklahoma City, the Los Angeles Clippers and Memphis. They are 2-8 against the top eight teams in the West, with the only wins coming against Golden State at home and Utah on the road.
Kirk Hinrich missed another game with a sore right elbow. He's now missed 10 of 11 games in February with the ailment.
"It's progressing but not as quickly as I would like it to," Hinrich said, according to espn.com. "Just taking it day by day right now and hoping for some improvement every day."
