I said to the man who stood at the gate of the year
Give me a light that I may tread safely into the unknown.
And he replied, "Go out into the darkness,
and put your hand into the hand of God
That shall be to you better than a light,
And safer than a known way.
So I went forth, and finding the Hand of God
Trod gladly into the night.
(M. Louise Haskins 1875-1975)
Quoted by King George VI in his 1939 Christmas broadcast.
At the beginning of the New Year, we look back over the past year and also towards the one that is just beginning. One of the things that stood out for all of us in 2007, was that we remembered with great love and gratitude, our teacher and guide on the path of meditation, John Main. We recalled the details of his life; reread his books; and listened again to his voice encouraging us on our own spiritual path. What a great gift all of that is!
As I recently re-read the above poem by Louise Haskins, I immediately thought of Fr. John. I think these words can aptly be applied to him, because they describe the kind of person he was. He was a man of great faith, trust, hope and love, which was evident not only by his teaching, but by his life, as well as by his suffering and death.
Like the poet, we too stand at the gate of another year. What will it bring for us? Where will we go? What will happen? At this point, the future is unknown. In his letters to Benedictine Oblates, John Main continually reminds us that the only thing that really matters is that we 'seek God' (R.B. 58) as the centre of our lives, and 'place all our hope in him'. (R.B. 4) We do not need to equip ourselves for the journey, but simply to walk in faith, trust, and hope, confident that God is always with us.
As a Benedictine monk, John Main was deeply immersed in the spirit of the Rule. This was particularly evident in his talks and letters to Benedictine Oblates, as well as many others. His words of encouragement invite each one of us to delve more deeply into the Rule of Benedict, and find within its pages inspiration for our own lives.
Wishing each one of you a happy New Year, with many graces and blessings.
Much love,
Hilda OSB

Art is in the eye of the beholder, and since the Disney Fantasy can hold 8,000 passenger eyes, it's no wonder the halls are decked with frame after frame of Disney artwork.
The new Disney Cruise Line ship that set sail on its maiden voyage on March 31 has more than 5,000 pieces of art on board including more than 150 pieces in public spaces among the 14 decks of the 1,115-foot, 130,000-ton vessel.
Some of the most striking are the mid-deck murals including a "Peter Pan" nighttime view of London from above and grand vista of the Parisian skyline from "Ratatouille." The Deck 3 hallway past the Royal Court restaurant is an impressive display of castles and palaces from Disney lore including a stunning black and white, moonlit view of Eric's seaside castle from "The Little Mermaid."
"We celebrate a lot of art," said Bob Zalk, a senior show producer with Walt Disney Imagineering. "A lot of this art has never been seen before. People are excited."
The artwork mostly pays deference to Disney animation from classic works including "Fantasia," "Bambi," "Peter Pan," "Cinderella," "Snow White," "Sleeping Beauty," "The Little Mermaid," "The Jungle Book," "Lady and the Tramp," "Pinocchio," "Dumbo" and "Alice in Wonderland." There is a small section that pays homage to Pixar films like "Finding Nemo," "The Incredibles" and "Cars" plus many classic features of Disney Animation with Mickey, Donald and Goofy among others.
Zalk said much of that new art includes pencil sketches, character studies and concept art, and much of that is housed as part of the immersive artwork experience that is the Animator's Palate restaurant, where diners also get to see their own drawings come to life as part of the mid-dinner show called Animation Magic.
The unique part of the Disney Cruise Line art is that is doesn't simply play the role of wallflower. It is central to some of the interactive experiences on board.
There are 22 pieces of interactive art, imaginative LCD screen pieces that come to life when the viewer stands in front of them. These are unique and whimsical items such as a pair of frames showing a pirate ship trading cannon fire with a 16th century Castillo or following Alice as she falls down the rabbit hole to Wonderland.
One that drew a lot of spectators on board was on Deck 4 near the atrium -- an old mariner's map of Florida and the northern Caribbean that features the occasional passing of colorful sea life such as a meandering hammerhead shark or scuttling crab.
Near the Walt Disney Theatre are black and white photographic images of the man himself, with his sketchpad coming to life. For a fan of classic Disney animation, these are a particular treat.
The pieces are also central to the three interactive mystery games one can play while on board as part of the Midship Detective Agency. Players hold up cards to the animated art, and the screens then unlock keys to solving the cases. Players make their way around the ship and the game is smart enough to not send everyone to the same piece of art at the same time.
Two of these games debuted on the Fantasy's sister ship the Disney Dream, but since the Fantasy sails on longer seven-day itineraries, a third game was added featuring The Muppets.
The animated art and the interaction it bred through curiosity over what each piece would do, as well as the game-playing utility led many to appreciate the other, inanimate pieces throughout the ship more so than they might normally.
Zalk said the artwork is "increasingly interactive ... empowering. There's something very magical about seeing that."

BPI Using Newzbin2 Ruling To Seek Much Broader Censorship Of Sites It Doesn't Like In The UK
from the did-anyone-not-see-that-coming? dept
The first likely step, which could be just days away, will be to ask ISPs to block some of the biggest illegal websites. It is not known yet which sites – and, therefore, which ISPs will be targeted. If ISPs do not block these sites voluntarily, the BPI will ratchet up the pressure and will seek court orders – citing 97A and the MPA case – requiring them to do so.And this is what censorship begets: more censorship. It's especially troubling when it comes from the entertainment industry -- an industry who has a history of declaring all sorts of useful tools and services -- the player piano, the radio, cable tv, the photocopier, the vcr, the dvr, the mp3 player, online video, etc. -- as infringing, because of their own unwillingness to adapt.

Fighting Back Against Public Domain Erosion By Growing The Commons
from the don't-take-it-lying-down dept
But there's another way to fight back against that loss, as this Wikimedia Foundation project shows:
Wiki Loves Monuments was a crazy idea: ask people to get out of their houses and take a picture of the cultural heritage around them, of monuments and buildings! In September 2010, however, the idea proved far from crazy – 250 people participated in the Netherlands and submitted 12,500 photos. Last month, during the pan-European 2011 contest, we crushed that number.The key part is the "free license" required: judging by this rules page (in German), that seems to mean cc-by-sa. Strictly speaking, that's not public domain, but images released under this license can still be used very widely (including commercially.)
In the past few months, volunteers throughout Europe have worked hard to organize this public photo contest in 18 countries throughout Europe – from Portugal to Estonia – and with great success. More than 5,000 people participated, submitting an amazing 165,000 photos– all available under a free license, and usable on Wikimedia Commons, Wikipedia and other places on the internet.
The Wiki Loves Monuments competition was a clever way to get people to contribute to this corner of the digital commons; but many people are happy to do that even without incentives. Flickr has just announced that over 200 million photos on its site have been released under a Creative Commons license. Now, it's true that 145 million of these permit only non-commercial use, but that still leaves 18 million under cc-by-sa, and 25 million under the even more liberal cc-by license.
Even if they don't compensate for what is effectively the government-sanctioned theft of the public domain around the world, these growing stores of cc-licensed images on Flickr and elsewhere show how it is possible for everyone to fight back, simply by creating and releasing works under permissive licenses – including, of course, placing them fully in the public domain.

Phyllis Gebauer
Longtime UCLA Extension writing teacher
Phyllis Gebauer, 82, a teacher for two decades in the UCLA Extension Writers' Program who recently donated to the program signed first editions by reclusive author Thomas Pynchon, died Wednesday at City of Hope in Duarte. She had cancer, said longtime friend Alice Dworkin.
Gebauer taught more than 60 classes — novel writing and later memoir writing — at UCLA Extension. Linda Venis, director of the UCLA Extension program, said Gebauer was an "incisive" teacher with a "droll and wicked sense of humor."
She was born Oct. 17, 1928, in Chicago. According to a biography on Gebauer's website, she earned a bachelor's degree in Spanish from Northwestern University. In the 1950s, Gebauer moved to Seattle with her husband, Fred, who worked at Boeing. She taught Spanish at a junior high school.
While in Seattle they became friends with Pynchon, then a technical writer at Boeing. When Pynchon started writing novels, the Gebaurers received an inscribed copy after each of his books was published. His first novel, "V," was published in 1963.
Unable to find a full-time teaching job after moving several times to follow her husband's aerospace career, Gebauer started to write. Her novel "The Pagan Blessing" was published in 1979 and the memoir "Hot Widow" in 2008. Her husband died in 1998.
Gebauer told The Times in May that when Pynchon lived in Los Angeles "he did a lot of research at the UCLA research library. He likes the idea of these books being used to fund scholarships."
Les Guthrie
He helped develop King Harbor
Les Guthrie, 84, a developer whose projects during a long career included the King Harbor in Redondo Beach, died June 11 at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, said his son, Sean. The cause was a rare form of leukemia.
Guthrie was general partner of Marina Cove Ltd., which operates the King Harbor marina. He held the largest leasehold there for several decades. Beginning in the late 1960s, he built the Harbor Cove Apartments, the Chart House restaurant and expanded the marina, among other projects, his son said.
Leslie Clare Guthrie Jr. was born Oct. 21, 1926, in Los Angeles. He served in the Navy from 1944 to '46 and graduated from UCLA in 1948 with a bachelor's degree in engineering.
Guthrie built hillside homes in Los Angeles until 1952, when he was recalled by the Navy. While on active duty he earned a master's degree in civil engineering from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in New York. He left the Navy in 1959 as a lieutenant commander.
Guthrie was vice president and head of development during the 1960s at Janss Corp., which developed much of Thousand Oaks and Camarillo. He also was involved in projects in Sun Valley, Idaho, and Kaanapali, Hawaii.
Freda Koblick
Sculptor pioneered work in acrylics
Freda Koblick, 90, a San Francisco sculptor who was a pioneer in the use of acrylics as an art medium, died Saturday in San Francisco. She had renal failure and diabetes, according to William Rukeyser, a longtime friend.
Koblick was born in San Francisco on Aug. 20, 1920. While studying English and engineering at San Francisco State College in the late 1930s, she became interested in making art from what were then new materials, particularly plastic, which, as she told the San Francisco Chronicle a few years ago, appealed to her "fascination with transparency." In 1939 she moved to Los Angeles, where she enrolled at the Plastics Industries Technical Institute.
In the early 1940s she returned to San Francisco and made a living by producing small decorative accessories, such as Lucite doorknobs, trays, candleholders and lamps. Architects eventually hired her to make larger pieces such as fountains and wall sculptures, but she yearned to make her own artistic statements.
By the 1960s she was creating large-scale works on commission and also taught at the Royal College of Art in London. Her powerful, elegant designs, praised by San Francisco Chronicle art critic Allan Temko for their "mythical grandeur," were recognized with a Guggenheim grant in fine arts in 1970.
In 1985, she was one of 19 Californians named as "Living Treasures" by the California Creative Arts League and was included in a show organized by the league for the Crocker Art Museum in Sacramento.
Among her best-known public commissions was a large acrylic hanging sculpture that was displayed during the 1980s in the United Airlines t1erminal at San Francisco International Airport.
Never married, Koblick spent her last decades living and working in a converted synagogue in the city's Mission District.
Lee Ames
Illustrator created 'Draw 50' series
Lee Ames, 90, a former Mission Viejo illustrator whose "Draw 50" books taught generations of children how to draw "elephants, tigers, dogs, fish, birds and many more" — the list eventually accommodated aliens, vampires and biblical figures — died June 2 at a nursing home in Huntington, N.Y.
The cause was congestive heart failure, said his wife, Jocelyn.
Lee Judah Ames, who was born Jan 8, 1921, in New York City and received no formal training in art, began his career when he was 18 and won a Walt Disney drawing contest. The prize was a job in Disney's Burbank studio and $50 for a bus ticket. He worked as an entry-level animator on "Bambi" and "Fantasia" but grew homesick and returned east after three months.
After serving in the Army during World War II, he scored his first hits with illustrations for children's historical books.
It was the "Draw 50" books that eventually made his name. Originally conceived as make-work in between jobs as a contract illustrator for the publisher Doubleday, they sold more than 2 million copies, according to Ames' website. With little or no text, they showed aspiring illustrators how to draw a world of lifelike figures by breaking them into simple geometric elements and adding layers of detail.
Ames met his future wife on a blind date and they married in 1945. The couple lived in Dix Hills, N.Y., and later in Mission Viejo.
Brian Haw
Peace activist held 10-year protest
Brian Haw, 62, a British peace activist who staged around-the-clock protests outside Parliament in London continuously for 10 years, died Saturday in Germany where he was receiving treatment for lung cancer, his family said.
An evangelical Christian and father of seven, Haw set up camp opposite the Houses of Parliament in June 2001 to protest U.S. and British bombing raids on Iraq. Over the years, British officials tried — but failed — to shut down his protests and remove him from Parliament Square.
The protester's work became the subject of a work of art in 2007, when former Turner Prize nominee Mark Wallinger re-created Haw's camp in the Tate Britain gallery.

RALEIGH, N.C. — Former Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards has finally come forward to admit that he fathered a child with a videographer he hired before his second White House bid. "It was wrong for me to ever deny she was my daughter," he said Thursday.
Edwards confirmed this in a statement released to The Associated Press, after initially denying that he'd fathered a child during an affair with campaign aide Rielle Hunter.
"I am Quinn's father," the former senator declared in his statement, as the second birthday of Frances Quinn Hunter approaches.
A former Edwards aide, Andrew Young, initially claimed paternity of the child shortly before the 2008 presidential primary contests began. Young is scheduled to release a book on Feb. 2 that details the scandal
Frances was born Feb. 27, 2008, indicating that the child was conceived in the middle of 2007, several months after Hunter stopped working for Edwards. John and Elizabeth Edwards renewed their wedding vows in July of 2007 to celebrate their 30th wedding anniversary.
Elizabeth Edwards, whose cancer returned in an incurable form in March 2007, has stood by her husband despite the affair. She has said that it does not matter to her whether her husband fathered a child with Hunter, saying, "that would be a part of John's life, but not a part of mine."
Since admitting the affair in August 2008, John Edwards has largely gone into seclusion. He has acknowledged a federal investigation into his campaign finances while both Young and Hunter – with her child – have made appearances at a federal courthouse in Raleigh.
In the statement Edwards released Thursday, he said, "I will do everything in my power to provide her (Frances) with the love and support she deserves. I have been able to spend time with her during the past year and trust that future efforts to show her the love and affection she deserves can be done privately and in peace."
Edwards also said, "It was wrong for me ever to deny she was my daughter and hopefully one day, when she understands, she will forgive me."
"I have been providing financial support for Quinn and have reached an agreement with her mother to continue providing support in the future," the statement said. "To all those I have disappointed and hurt, these words will never be enough, but I am truly sorry."
Harrison Hickman, Edwards' longtime political adviser, called the situation "a lot more complicated than people think."
"There are a lot of adults involved," Hickman said in an interview broadcast on NBC's "Today" show. "I think they wanted to handle this in the right way."
"Elizabeth thinks that he should acknowledge this," Hickman said. He said it "has been a very difficult time for everyone … but especially for Elizabeth."
Edwards, a U.S. senator representing North Carolina from 1998 until his vice presidential bid in 2004, acknowledged in May that federal investigators were looking into how he used campaign funds. Grand jury proceedings are secret, and the U.S. attorney's office in Raleigh has declined to confirm or deny an investigation.
Edwards adamantly denied during an interview with ABC News last summer that he had fathered a child with Rielle Hunter, and he welcomed a paternity test.
Edwards has said the affair ended in 2006. That year, Edwards' political action committee paid Hunter's video production firm $100,000 for work. Then the committee paid another $14,086 on April 1, 2007. The Edwards camp has said the latter payment from the PAC was exchanged for 100 hours of unused videotape that Rielle Hunter shot.
The same day, the Edwards presidential campaign had injected $14,034.61 into the PAC for a "furniture purchase," according to federal election records.
Fred Baron, who was Edwards' national finance chairman and a wealthy Dallas-based trial attorney, said last year he quietly sent money to Hunter and to resettle Young's family.

Canonical: The Next Apple
Mar 14, 2013 5:00 AM PT
Given all the legends surrounding Apple's widely mourned Steve Jobs, it's not entirely surprising that comparisons should be made any time another tech leader begins to resemble him in any way.
Case in point: Mark Shuttleworth. The billionaire Canonical founder has actually been compared to Jobs on numerous occasions before, but lately the discussion was renewed afresh by a recent post on Linux Advocates.
"Is Canonical heading in Apple's direction?" is the title of said post, which was penned by none other than Muktware founder Swapnil Bhartiya, and it sparked quite a lively conversation on the young Linux news site.
'Canonical Didn't Do Anything'
"Canonical never addressed any major issues facing the Linux world," Bhartiya charged. "When Adobe decided to stop AIR support for Linux, Canonical did not do anything. Then Adobe decided to stop supporting Flash and again Canonical didn't do anything and left the users on their own.
"When secure boot became a serious concern, Canonical didn't do anything; it was a Red Hat developer Matthew Garrett who worked on a solution," he added. "So what is this largest open source project doing for Linux or other core open source projects?"
Adding further fuel to the fire was a later Muktware post, again by Bhartiya, accusing Canonical of fraud in its collection of donations for the support of flavors such as Kubuntu.
Bottom line? A considerable amount of "Ubuntu hate," as TechRepublic's Jack Wallen recently put it, in the community these days.
Down at the Linux blogosphere's Broken Windows Lounge, everyone had a pet theory.
'A Different Set of Priorities'
"Once is happenstance, twice is coincidence, three times is enemy action," Google+ blogger Kevin O'Brien told Linux Girl over a fresh Tequila Tux.
"I can defend any of the steps Canonical has made individually," O'Brien explained, "and I think in many respects Ubuntu is a lot more innovative than other distros. A lot of people in the Linux community love innovation as long as it doesn't change anything."
However, "I think Canonical is moving in a direction distinctly different from a 'community-oriented' distro," he added. "I think if I were paid to work there I would find it to be a great place to work with a lot of great stuff being developed. But if I were a community member, I would be looking for a new project to get involved in.
"That doesn't make Canonical evil -- just a company with a different set of priorities," O'Brien concluded.
'Worried for the Project's Future'
"I'm really not sure what direction Canonical is heading in, and quite frankly Shuttleworth's last rant -- accusing people unhappy with Ubuntu's latest direction of being elitists who prefer a hard-to-use Linux, even though that is the exact opposite of what people have been upset about -- leave me worried for the whole project's future," consultant and Slashdot blogger Gerhard Mack opined.
"Unity is actually much harder to get work done with," he added.
"Mark Shuttleworth seems to have not understood the big picture at all," blogger Robert Pogson told Linux Girl. "The idea that Canonical should try to outdo Apple and M$ in what they do is absurd.
"Apple bundles over-priced hardware with their software based on BSD Unix and M$ forces OEMs and retailers to bundle their latest release of an OS from Hell," Pogson explained. "Both companies rely on monopoly to rip off millions of consumers."
'A Failing Leap of Faith'
FLOSS, on the other hand, "is about the world cooperatively making and sharing software," he added. "The only obstacle to ultimate success of GNU/Linux is retail shelf-space. Remember the eeePC? It sold out globally when it shipped with GNU/Linux."
There's no need for radical change, in other words. "Just keep doing what's been working, promoting GNU/Linux with OEMs," Pogson suggested. "On the verge of success this guy is waving the white flag, demanding defeat if he cannot be like Apple and M$... It's a Greek tragedy, where the winner sees defeat and commits suicide."
Sometimes great leaders are "just greatly wrong," he added. "The error here seems to be based on the idea that a single GUI should somehow work on huge monitors or tiny smartphones.
"That's silly," Pogson concluded. "No one that I know wants a familiar and personally customized GUI with icons and menus shoehorned into something that fits on a smartphone. Because different solutions both run on some kind of computer does not mean they should have the same OS or GUI. That's a failing leap of faith that Shuttleworth makes, not logic."
'An Effort to Survive'
Mark Shuttleworth "seems to worship Apple," observed Robin Lim, a lawyer and blogger on Mobile Raptor.
"But Canonical's actions and Ubuntu's current direction have nothing to do with emulating Apple," Lim said. "Canonical really cannot follow the Apple model since it is not into the hardware business, and I think they do know that."
Rather, "Ubuntu's current direction is really more of an effort to survive," Lim told Linux Girl.
"It is not secret that Canonical invested in Ubuntu to turn a profit -- nothing wrong with that," Lim explained. "It is also pretty apparent that the company has no business model on how it will turn a profit, but as strange is it may sound, there is nothing wrong with that these days. Launch a service, get plenty of eyeballs and worry about monetization later."
The problem, of course, "is getting enough eyeballs," he noted, even as Canonical's recent moves "seem to have alienated a rather influential part of the Linux community."
'The Blessed 3'
Slashdot blogger hairyfeet took an even darker view.
"What was it I said 2 years ago when I gave them five years to live? That they would flop from one trend to another to try to find a viable business model before finally petering out," hairyfeet said. "Well there ya go, just as I predicted.
"One of the ugly truths nobody wants to talk about is 'the blessed three,' which so far have been the ONLY way to make a living while having software that is FOSS because of the re-distribution clause: 1. Services/support, 2. Selling hardware, and 3. The tin cup."
What Canonical should have done "is REALLY copy Jobs by using BSD as the basis over Linux," hairyfeet suggested. Then "they could still give back to the base packages while charging for their completed work and make enough to actually grow and hire more workers and do more R&D."
So Close and Yet So Far
Linux Rants blogger Mike Stone wasn't so sure.
"From a logistical perspective, Canonical is definitely heading in Apple's direction," Stone began.
"That being said, it's hard not to, considering where they started," Stone added. "Ubuntu is Linux, and Linux is open. By sheer necessity, Canonical started out open. Now, they're moving towards a less open position.
"This is definitely more in Apple's direction than where they started, but we still have to consider the vast chasm that still separates Canonical and Apple," he pointed out. "It's like two points on the opposite sides of a globe. No matter which direction they go, they're going to be closer together. That doesn't mean that they're actually close together."
'Still No. 1'
Indeed, "from the beginning, Canonical was meant to be a GNU/Linux distribution for the masses," offered Google+ blogger Gonzalo Velasco C. "They become popular and we can count a large number of people around us that entered the Linux world through the Ubuntu path. So, thank you very much Canonical!"
Of course, "times change, and now they are dreaming high," he pointed out. "So what? As long as the Ubuntu manifesto 'Ubuntu is and will always be free...' is valid, they can paint it black and I won't care.
"Ubuntu is still the number one distro, no mater what Distrowatch 'clickers' do," he concluded. "Ubuntu stands on the shoulder of giants and has become a giant on its own."

Asghar Ali Engineer's aim is to make progressive thinking accessible to lay people and to bring it beyond the borders of a select group of intellectuals. A portrait of the Indian Muslim thinker by Fatma Sagir
With his numerous publications, Asghar Ali Engineer is one of the most impressive modern Muslim thinkers of our time. It is not easy to sum up the work of the 66-year-old in a single word. Engineer's writings are philosophical, political, and theological. His style is simple, clear, and comprehensible. He brings the same enthusiasm to his commentaries on theological issues as to his work as a social activist.
Engineer is convinced that communal harmony can only be achieved by new ways of thinking and detachment from orthodox structures and, above all, exclusivist interpretations of religion.
Hindu priests as regular visitors
Born near Udaipur in Rajasthan, Engineer was sensitized to interreligious dialogue from an early age. He grew up in a Bohra community, which is associated with the Shiite Ismailiyya. Hindu priests and lay people were regular visitors to his parents' house. He was educated in the classic fields of Islamic theology by his father, the cleric Qurban Hussain.
From an early age, he observed how clerics made simple believers dependent on them by means of a complex system of dues and contributions. Things came to a head in 1972. When Engineer publicly criticised the absolute authority of the community's religious leader, Sayedna Burhanuddin, and its hierarchical structures, he was declared a persona non grata.
Together with other critics, he founded the reform movement "Progressive Dawoodi Bohra". Since then, Engineer has been the target of five attacks from Sayedna followers, the last of which took place in 2000.
"Practical Koran exegesis"
As is the case with so many Muslim reformist thinkers, the Koran is at the heart of his work. However, unlike his "colleagues" from the Arab world in particular, Engineer pursues what he refers to as a "practical Koran exegesis". His aim is to make progressive thinking accessible to lay people and to bring it beyond the borders of a select group of intellectuals.
"A living faith is not possible without free choice," Engineer said in his acceptance speech at the Right Livelihood Awards 2004. "I thus began interpretation of Islam to make it more meaningful to contemporary life, to make it more meaningful to lay people. I have continuously written on Islam and modern challenges so as to make Islam a living and meaningful faith. It also greatly helps in fighting communal and sectarian forces. My two struggles reinforce each other."
It is no surprise, therefore, that Engineer is particularly in favour of an improvement in the position, (not only) of Muslim women. In doing so, he criticises both marginalising structures at socio-political level and Islamic legal scholars. He argues that they are related to patriarchal values and not to the principle of justice.
He also denounces the workings of the so-called panchayat (village councils comprising amateur jurists) in cases of sexual attacks on women (most recently in the case of the Pakistani woman Mukhtaran Mai who was raped by several men after being "sentenced" by an informal council; a case which grabbed headlines around the world). Engineer rejects the view that such an inhuman practice is "Islamic".
Sharia laws – subject to change
He also considers the assumption that the Sharia is divine and consequently unchangeable to be ill-founded. "Sharia laws are the result of human interpretation," he says in his 2005 article Shari'ah, Women and Traditional Society. Engineer goes on to say that the monopoly of orthodox ulema can only be broken in a modern, pluralist democracy.
India is, of course, the largest democracy in the world. A progressive Muslim thinker like engineer can work and publish freely there. In other countries, Muslim intellectuals often have to go into exile to do so. This is why Engineer sees secularism as a guarantee for communal harmony in a multireligious society. This allows for the development of an Indian national identity, which opposes any concepts based on exclusivist ethnic or religious arguments and also allows the country to overcome the trauma of the division of 1947.
Engineer makes a valuable contribution to the process of coming to terms with this past and focussing attention on minorities and their role in Indian society. His criticism is aimed both at socio-political structures and forces that block access to education and hamper communal harmony and at religious orthodoxy.
In 2004, Engineer and the Hindu social reformer Swami Agnivesh won the Right Livelihood Award, also known as the Alternative Nobel Prize.

TOPEKA, Kan. (WIBW) - The August 21st solar eclipse will be visible from everywhere in the United States. For many, it'll close enough to darkness to make it interesting for some animals.
How will your furry friends react during the phenomenon?
"It won't be like the old horror movies where you have large herds of animals, large flocks of birds that are all fleeing down the roads in panic because something has changed," Topeka Zoo Education Curator Dennis Dinwiddie said.
In reality, Dinwiddie said animals deal with changing nature every day. He says a solar eclipse won't have any major effects on animals, but they may act a little strange.
"It will not for example affect any of the normal patterns like migration for example. It won't affect their internal clock that much, it will probably arouse a great deal of curiosity for them," Dinwiddie said.
Probably the biggest change you'll notice is from the birds.
"Are they going to be quiet or loud? That will be a very interesting thing for us to discover, we anticipate that as the darkness falls on them, that they are going to suddenly think, has it become evening, should we go into our evening routine of being quiet and no longer singing and no longer making any noise, and prepare to sleep. But a couple minutes later as it's light again they are going to think the evening has passed, and now we have to go into our morning song routine," Dinwiddie said.
And what about protecting your animals eyes?
"You're not going to have to go out and put the eclipse glasses on on all of your dogs and cats outdoors because they're not going to stare at the sun long enough to cause them pain, and discomfort or damage," Dinwiddie said.
Since solar eclipse research is sparing, Dinwiddie is encouraging anyone who can to visit their local zoo and observe the animals during the eclipse.
"There are places that you can report the observations that you make among how animals react to that so that it can become part of a scientific study on how do animals react to a total eclipse, and we are challenging people to come to the zoo and watch how our animals react to the eclipse," Dinwiddie said.

CRESTVIEW � The City Council unanimously approved extending the current local agreement for the distribution of gasoline taxes collected in Okaloosa County. Without the action, the city's share of the current 6-cents-per-gallon might have been reduced.
CRESTVIEW � The City Council unanimously approved extending the current local agreement for the distribution of gasoline taxes collected in Okaloosa County.
Since June 2003, Okaloosa County and nine municipalities have split the 6-cent-per-gallon county gasoline tax, with 60 percent of the revenue going to the county and the remaining 40 percent divided between the cities.
Under the formula, Fort Walton Beach receives 10.884 percent of the tax, Crestview receives 8.6734 percent, and Destin gets 8.7925 percent. Laurel Hill receives .5102 percent.
Under the current formula, Crestview has budgeted gas tax revenues of $519,000 this fiscal year.
With the agreement due to expire after 10 years, the cities have to approve extending it through December 2014, allowing time to prepare a new distribution formula.
If the cities do not approve the extension, the agreement turns to a state formula under which the county would receive 67 percent of the tax revenue and the cities would divide the remaining 33 percent.
"This has nothing to do with the proposed gas tax," City Clerk Betsy Roy emphasized. "This is an extension of an agreement we already have."
Despite Roy's explanation, some residents attending the Monday City Council meeting misunderstood and thought the council had voted to raise the gasoline tax.
"Just to be clear, this council took no action on a gas tax increase," Council President Robyn Helt said.

The clock is ticking. Ron Francis fired coach Kirk Muller a week after taking over as general manager of the Carolina Hurricanes. That was more than a month ago and since then … nothing. At some point, the Hurricanes are going to need a coach. Patience, Francis said.
"I'm more focused on trying to be thorough and comfortable with the guy we get than get this behind me," Francis said.
Francis said the Hurricanes have interviewed "between six and 10" candidates for the job, but two obvious potential choices remain under wraps. New York Rangers assistant coach Ulf Samuelsson and Los Angeles Kings assistant coach John Stevens are both still otherwise occupied.
(Rangers general manager Glen Sather scoffed at the idea he might let his people sneak an interview between the conference and Cup finals: "Do you honestly think somebody would pick up the phone and say, 'I'd like to talk to one of your personnel at this time of year?' I wouldn't entertain the thought of letting anyone speak to anyone right now.")

So the Hurricanes wait. And Francis is OK with that, even though the top coaching free-agent on the market, former Nashville Predators coach Barry Trotz, landed with the Washington Capitals long ago. Another hit the market Friday after Jim Rutherford, jumping from the Hurricanes to the Pittsburgh Penguins, fired Dan Bylsma in his first act as general manager.
Add Bylsma to a Hurricanes list that is already believed to include former Florida Panthers coach and Hurricanes player Kevin Dineen, Charlotte (AHL) coach and former Hurricanes player Jeff Daniels, journeymen Jacques Martin and Marc Crawford, Stevens and Samuelsson, and others.
While many of his recently assumed responsibilities have been new to him, his process has been particularly novel for Francis. Rutherford, having done his coaching changes in midseason, didn't have much advice to offer even before Pittsburgh called, so Francis drew on his friends and peers in the game to help design the interview process.
"It's interesting in the sense that it was new for me while probably some people I'm interviewing have been through it more than I have," Francis said.
Meanwhile, Francis has traveled to Toronto for the NHL scouting combine for the first time, interviewing potential draft prospects, and overseeing the team's pro and amateur scouting meetings last week in Asheville. That's a heavy workload for a novice general manager even without conducting a coaching search.
While Francis initially said he hoped to have a coach in place before the NHL Draft, which is now less than three weeks away, he won't express frustration over the pace of the search, nor any fears that the Hurricanes may be left empty-handed as their decision drags on, especially with Rutherford now competing for candidates in addition to Florida and the Vancouver Canucks.
Presumably, the process should wrap up quickly once the Stanley Cup finals conclude and Francis can contact his final candidates. That could be as late as June 18, nine days before the draft.
"I think we've had some interviews with people we feel very comfortable with," Francis said. "We still want to interview some more people. There are so many chairs but there are more than enough candidates to fill those chairs, so we feel comfortable letting the process run through and be thorough and get to everybody we want to get to."
As confusing as the delay may be, it's hard to blame Francis for wanting to take the time to get this right. His tenure may end up defined by this hire. What's another week or two at this point?

There is something about the Silicon Valley that attracts the innovative and creative individuals. The "misfits, rebels, troublemakers, and the round pegs in square holes" come here as dreamers and leave the valley as
billionaires world changers. The Silicon Valley provides the opportunity and platform to make a difference for those who dare to dream.
On Saturday, I will be in Silicon Valley. I'm not hoping to "to put a dent in the universe." But I'm sure I will leave the place equipped with a better knowledge of SQL Server.
I will be driving about ~400 miles to get there but it's worth the drive – the event is not only FREE but also provides Quality SQL Server Training. The speakers scheduled to give sessions are well-respected individuals in the SQL Server Community.
I haven't been good at connecting with people at the past SQL Saturday events that I've attended. I'm an introvert by nature; I'm quite shy in person. I "talk" a lot online but not in person. This is also one of the reasons why I'm attending this particular SQL Saturday event in Silicon Valley. I want to become a better person and a better community connector. It will start in Silicon Valley.
I may not be the first person to say "hi". If I see you but did not say a word, that doesn't mean I don't like to talk to you. It's just the introvert in me overcoming me. Please say hi if you recognize me.
I am looking forward to learning more about SQL Server. And I am looking forward to making friends.
See you there!

I got this pedal after purchasing my Giant Trance 3 2016, the only cons i could say is this thing is a little bit heavy, but that out weights all the good stuff this pedal can offer, from Great grip (especially once you remove the spacer), it looks great and looks super durable.
Best Uses
I purchased these pedals for my 2013 Trek Mamba Matte Black. They look just as good as their utilization! They have excellent grip, I haven't slipped off them once; the price may be a little steep, but if you are going clipless... This pedal is for you. It's lighter than it looks, and I would definitely purchase them again.

Though Toshiba largely swung and missed with the Thrive line of tablets, they're going all in on a new line of tablets in the Excite line. Toshiba apparently listened to consumer feedback from the Thrive, and has traded in the bulky, port-heavy body for an extremely thin chassis. The Excite will come in three different variants, with a 7.7″ device with the same AMOLED display we loved in the Galaxy Tab 7.7, a 10″ model with 1280 x 800 resolution, and a whopping 13″, 1600 x 900 model.
Those who long for the full-functionality found in the original Thrive tablets will be happy to know that the 10″ and 13″ variants both sport a full-sized SD card slot, though the USB and HDMI ports were trashed in favor of thinness. All three models will pack the Tegra 3 SoC chipset, which is good news for those of you who use tablets for mobile gaming.
While the Excite tablets are crazy thin (and, incredibly good-looking), the price points are not.
Excite 7.7″ – June 10th Release Date
- 16GB model – $500
- 32GB model – $580
Excite 10″ – May 6th Release Date
- 16GB model – $450
- 32GB model – $530
- 64GB model – $650
Excite 13″ – June 10th Release Date
- 32GB model – $650
- 64GB model – $750
Though we certainly expect tablet computers to be fairly expensive, I have a hard time seeing Toshiba selling many of these tablets at the currently named price points. And while many of us think we would love a 13″ tablet, once you get above a 10″ device, the portability aspect goes out the window.
Still, the Thrive tablets are some of the best-looking Android tablets to be unveiled, and the form factor could move units. The continued release of tablets puts pressure on Google to urge developers to step up the development game for Android tablet applications. Until we start to see applications that don't look like blown-up phone applications, I have a hard time seeing Android tablets take off outside of the core Android crowd.
Who out there wants one of these bad boys? Would you use a 13″ tablet? Sound off in the comments.Show Press Release
Toshiba Introduces Three New Android-powered Tablets, Giving Consumers More Choice
IRVINE, Calif. – Apr. 10, 2012 – Toshiba's Digital Products Division (DPD), a division of Toshiba America Information Systems, Inc., today announced the expansion of its Exciteâ"¢ family of Androidâ"¢-powered tablets with three new display sizes — 13.3-inch, 10.1-inch and 7.7-inch. The new Excite tablets boast thin-and-light designs, brilliant displays, quad-core performance as well as a full range of essential ports and smart features.
"One size does not fit all, so we are carefully considering how and where people are using tablets and designing form factors to best suit various needs," said Carl Pinto, vice president of product development, Toshiba America Information Systems, Inc., Digital Products Division. "With amazingly thin and light designs, our new Excite family of tablets continues to incorporate what consumers have come to love about Toshiba tablets: essential ports for a more complete tablet computing experience plus durability that ensures they can go the distance."
Powered to Perform, Built to Last and Designed to Excite
The three new tablets — Excite 10, Excite 13 and Excite 7.7 — feature elegant and sturdy aluminum shells and scratch-resistant Corning® Gorilla® Glass displays, making them not only stylish, but also durable. Powered by Android 4.0, Ice Cream Sandwich, which builds on the things people love most about Android — the tablets offer a simplified UI, easy multitasking, customizable home screens, resizable widgets and a full suite of familiar Googleâ"¢ mobile services applications — as well as powerful new ways of communicating and sharing.
From scrolling and swiping the web, to the fast action of the latest games, the Excite tablets' all-new NVIDIA® Tegraâ"¢ 3 processorsi deliver amazing multitasking, web, gaming and video.

Excite 13: More Screen for More of Everything
Delivering more screen real estate than any other tablet on the market, the Excite 13 tablet offers a big, bright, higher resolution display, while delivering more room for everything else — from sharing photos and web browsing to playing games and watching movies with a group. Ideally suited for the home, from growing families to empty nesters, the Excite 13 tablet is only 0.4 inches thin and weighs 2.2 poundsviii, so it is still easy to carry.
With a 13.3-inch diagonal AutoBriteâ"¢ LED Backlit display with 10-finger touch support, the tablet boasts a cinematic 16:9 aspect ratio and 1600×900 native resolution, perfect for watching HD movies and videos.

Is it just me, or doesn't anyone else have trouble with the preview button? When I want to preview a post and click the button I sometimes get a blank page.
Hey, I'm still getting blank preview pages. Am I alone here?
I have had the same problem. I used to do a decent job editing my posts with the help of preview. But now I usually just post and edit after the fact.
Can you tell me what browser you're using?
I'm using Safari 3.0.3 on Apple OS 10.4.10 The last couple of days the Preview button has started to work, though. I don't know what changed, but it seems to be working now.

"Ubuntu, once the darling of desktop Linux and the overwhelmingly popular choice for newcomers, may soon lose that role to Mint." I switched to Mint KDE, and have no intention of going back. By the way, KDE4 is finally good (don't hit me, Aaron) - fast, fluid, stable, pretty, and thanks to its versatility, a joy to use after a few hours of tweaking. Just... Please, unify Plasma and the regular widget style. This is insanity.

Matin necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 113 diseños de 28 diseñadores freelance.
PoundPay is a payments service in development that will allow you to receive money instantly and without fees. The money moves from the payer's bank account or credit card to your bank account -- no holding account like a PayPal account.
It works primarily over text message right now, but you can go online to the website that will be hosted at poundpay.com to sign up, link your bank account, and view profiles of people that use PoundPay
Craigslist sellers, personal trainers, tutors -- people who currently deal with cash or checks when exchanging money
We're looking to make the user feel comfortable and safe using the service
We'd like the British Pound Sterling symbol (£) to be incorporated into the logo: http://www.allfreelogo.com/images/v…5EusXW.jpg
The primary goal of the design on the site is to make users feel comfortable, safe, and secure. This doesn't mean a big lock. Instead, think of comfortable, safe, and secure as how you would feel lying in front of a fire place in your home under a warm blanket on a cold night holding a loved one.
Use http://mint.com as motivation of what comfortable, safe, and secure mean
Must have the words "PoundPay". Play around with capitalization.
UPDATE [8/12/10]: After some thought about different concepts, I *really* like the approach in: http://www.allfreelogo.com/images/v…5EusXW.jpg
The basic concept is that the logo itself is secure :). The designer copied the security features that would appear in paper notes in the logo. I like the approach because it makes me feel comfortable and secure without locks or checks. I immediately associate the coloring with security and feel good. I'd love to see designs using this approach with the words "£PoundPay".

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – Junior Mitchell Kates (Colts Neck, N.J.) poured in 24 points en route to tournament Most Outstanding Player honors to help No. 3 MIT win the 2012 New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) men's basketball championship with a 65-60 win over Springfield College at Rockwell Cage on Sunday afternoon. With the win, the Engineers clinch their fourth-straight NCAA tournament appearance by winning the conference title for the third time in four years.
Kates shot 10-for-16 from the field while adding six assists in 39 minutes of play. Senior Noel Hollingsworth (Salt Lake City, Utah) had a double-double with 14 points and 10 boards and senior Billy Bender (The Woodlands, Texas) stuffed the stat sheet with four points, four rebounds, two assists and three steals.
Junior Alex Berthiaume (Springfield, Mass.) had a game-high 25 points in the loss to go along with five assists. Pat Rossi (Rock Tavern, N.Y.) was also in double figures with 10 and Ryan Coburn (West Warwick, R.I.) and Jordan Rote (Sheffield, Mass.) added eight points apiece.
The score was tied at 55 with 3:13 to go before Kates and Berthiaume exchanged buckets to keep things knotted at 57. After a missed three-pointer from Hollingsworth, junior Will Tashman (Atherton, Calif.) picked up his fifth foul, sending Evan Christner (Voorheesville, N.Y.) to the line for a pair. Christner was only able to convert one-of-two to put give the Pride a 58-57 lead with 1:45 to play.
Kates made a contested, reverse layup to put the Cardinal and Gray back on top and Rote would turn the ball over at the other end. Hollingsworth then knocked down a tough jump-hook on the ensuing MIT possession to extend the lead to three, 61-58, with just 39 seconds to go. The Engineers would pick up a key defensive stop on Springfield's next trip down the court and iced the game by going four-for-four from the foul line in the final 20 seconds.
Tech led by as many as 14 early in the second half, after consecutive buckets by Tashman and Kates to force a Springfield timeout less than a minute into the period. The Pride would battle back thanks to a 12-3 run midway through the frame. Rossi's jumper with 5:01 to play gave Springfield its first lead since the 4:23 mark of the first, and the teams would trade baskets over the next few possessions, setting up the dramatic finish.
The visitors led by as many as seven in the first half, before the top-seeded Engineers came storming back, closing out the opening stanza on a 17-4 run that was started by back-to-back steals by Bender, to take a 37-27 advantage into the locker room.
Springfield falls to MIT in the NEWMAC championship game for the second time in four years and sees its terrific season come to a close at 17-10 overall.
MIT will head back to the NCAA Division III tournament for the fourth consecutive season and will await its postseason fate to be announced during tomorrow's NCAA tournament selection show, to be aired on NCAA.com on Monday at 12:00 p.m.

2. Kelso (1957-1983)
Never mind that, as a 3-year-old gelding, he skipped the 1960 Triple Crown. Kelso blossomed into a near-mythic thoroughbred and the star of Bohemia Stable in Cecil County. Named Horse of the Year a record five times (1960-64), he raced until age 9 and won a remarkable 39 of 63 starts, including five Jockey Gold Cups, and nearly $2 million -- a money mark that stood for 12 years until passed by Affirmed in 1979. During the Cold War, Kelso defeated Russia's best in the D.C. International at Laurel. He ate monogrammed sugar cubes, drank bottled water and slept on a bed of pulverized sugar cane. Kelso had a worldwide fan club and an oversized mailbox at owner Allaire du Pont's Woodstock Farm in Chesapeake City, where he now rests.
