Portfolio money is still finding its way into the big emerging markets (EM), with $3.9 billion pumped into EM in the week ending Feb. 13, according to fund tracking firm EPFR Global.
In the category, some $2.8 billion went to emerging market equity funds and $1.1 billion went to bond funds. Notably, both EM local currency funds and EM dollar funds received inflows again last week.
A Barclays Capital review of historical data for flows into EM equity, EM local currency and EM hard currency bond funds indicates that all three tend to be positively correlated. Based on those historical patterns, it seems unlikely that strong inflows into emerging equities and local bond markets should come at the expense of the dollar and euro-based, or "hard-currency" funds. Many investors prefer the hard currency funds in order to avoid currency risk.
However, the correlation between flows into hard-currency bond funds and both local-currency bond funds and equity funds has decreased significantly lately, while the correlation between EM equity fund flows and EM local-currency bond fund flows has trended higher. This may indicate that the common component in EM equities and local bonds – the currency exposure – is a big appeal for investors at the moment.

DONCASTER Rovers and Reading, who meet at the Keepmoat Stadium tomorrow, have different priorities as the 2011-12 Championship season heads towards the business end of the campaign.
Whereas the battle against relegation remains the focus for Rovers, the Royals are well placed for a promotion bid.
"I can definitely see them being up there," said Rovers' star Giles Barnes this week. "They are a good team and they are playing well at the moment.
"It is going to be a tough game but hopefully we can capitalise on any mistakes they make."
The last time the two sides met, the Royals sentenced Rovers to a 2-0 defeat at the Madejski Stadium - a result which was to bring about the end of Sean O'Driscoll's five-year spell in charge.
But not before he had read the riot act to the players in a long behind-closed-doors inquest.
"I played in that game and I feel we owe them one," said Barnes. "We didn't really know what happened in that game; they kind of picked us off and we had an off day.
"Whether that is what led to the manager getting sacked I don't know although it turned out to be his last game in charge.
"We obviously owe them one for beating us but it is not about feeling that we owe them one it is more about just wanting to win the game.
"Earlier in the season we struggled to win at the Keepmoat Stadium but we've turned the corner in the last couple of months and we are unbeaten in our last five home games.
"Home games are very important to us because that's where we've been picking up most of our points in recent weeks and we've got to keep being hard to beat.
"We've got to make the Keepmoat a fortress and make it an intimidating place for other teams to come and I think that's what we are doing at the moment.
"We feel confident when we are playing at home and we know that if we play well that it is going to take a good side to beat us.
"I've not started for the last few games but the lads are doing well and we've just got to keep doing what we've been doing and hopefully we should be okay.
"The manager has set a target of nine more wins and unless we can start to pick up some wins away, we are going to have to win virtually all our games at the Keepmoat.
"Obviously that would be difficult but not impossible, but realistically we've got to start winning some away games, or at least picking up points, and that is our target.
"We've not won for seven away games, though we drew 0-0 at Hull on Tuesday, but I think once we get a win then we can kick on from there.
"There is no different mentality in the dressing room before an away game; we are going out there to win.
"There might be a different team shape or different tactics but at the end of the day the priority is to try and win.
"We've got some tough away games but there are no easy games in the Championship. "There are a lot of big teams, though we seem to have done alright against a lot of them, especially at home.
"But we are going to be pushing to win games no matter who we are playing against. We still all think that we can get out of trouble and stay in this division."
Team and referee
ROVERS (possible): Button, O' Connor, Hird, Lockwood, Spurr, Bamogo, Oster, Stock, M Woods Diouf, Hayter (4-3-3)
READING (possible): Federici, Cummings, Pearce, Gorkss, Griffin, McAnuf, Karacan, Tabb, Antonio/Kebe, Hunt/Le Fondre, Roberts (4-4-2)
REFEREE: Tony Bates (Staffs) has handed out 65 yellow cards in his 24 games in charge this season but has yet to dish out a red. He booked five players on the opening day of the season when taking charge of the Reading-Millwall clash. He's also handed out five yellow cards on two other occasions.
History lesson
DONCASTER Rovers go into tomorrow's game still looking to beat Reading at Championship level.
Since returning to the second tier of English football the Royals have won six and drawn one of their seven games
Rovers best chance of doing so came in the 2010-11 season when they led 3-1 at the Madejski Stadium only to concede three goals in the last half-hour to go down 4-3.
There were even more goals in the classic encounter between the two sides at Belle Vue back in the 1982-83 season when Rovers beat the visitors 7-5 in a Division Three game.

If you are installing the software from an X Window System workstation or X terminal, then:
Start a local terminal session, for example, an X terminal (
If you are not installing the software on the local system, then enter the following command to enable the remote host to display X applications on the local X server:
$ xhost fully_qualified_remote_host_name
For example:
$ xhost somehost.us.acme.com
If you are not installing the software on the local system, then use the
rlogin, or
telnet command to connect to the system where you want to install the software:
$ telnet fully_qualified_remote_host_name
If you are not logged in as the
root user, then enter the following command to switch user to
$ su - root password: #
If you are installing the software from a PC or other system with X server software installed, then:
Note:If necessary, refer to your X server documentation for more information about completing this procedure. Depending on the X server software that you are using, you may need to complete the tasks in a different order.
Start the X server software.
Configure the security settings of the X server software to permit remote hosts to display X applications on the local system.
Connect to the remote system where you want to install the software, and start a terminal session on that system, for example, an X terminal (
If you are not logged in as the
root user on the remote system, then enter the following command to switch user to
$ su - root password: #
The system must meet the following minimum hardware requirements:
512 MB of physical RAM
The following table gives the swap space requirement in terms of available RAM.

|2 times the size of RAM
|Between 513 MB and 726 MB
|1.5 times the size of RAM
|More than 726 MB
|0.75 times the size of RAM
The minimum client installation
TMP space required is 115 MB. The minimum disk space requirement in the
/tmp directory depends on the installation type you have selected. The following table lists the minimum disk space requirements for the
/tmp directory in each type of installation.
|Client Installation Type
|Disk Space Required for the /tmp Directory (MB)
|Custom (all components selected)
Between 34 MB and 1.9 GB of disk space for the Oracle software, depending on the installation type
To ensure that the system meets these requirements, follow these steps:
To determine the physical RAM size, enter the following command:
# /usr/sbin/prtconf | grep "Memory size"
If the size of the physical RAM installed in the system is less than the required size, then you must install more memory before continuing.
To determine the size of the configured swap space, enter the following command:
# /usr/sbin/swap -s
If necessary, refer to your operating system documentation for information about how to configure additional swap space.
To determine the amount of free disk space available in the
/tmp directory, enter the following command:
# df -k /tmp # df -h /tmp (on Solaris 10)
If there is less than 400 MB of disk space available in the
/tmp directory, then complete one of the following steps:
Delete unnecessary files from the
/tmp directory.
Set the
TEMP and
TMPDIR environment variables when setting the
oracle user's environment (described later).
Extend the file system that contains the
/tmp directory. If required, contact your system administrator for information about extending file systems.
To determine the amount of free disk space available on the system, enter the following command:
# df -k # df -h (on Solaris 10)
To determine whether the system architecture can run the software, enter the following command:
# /bin/isainfo -kv
The following is the expected output of this command:
64-bit sparcv9 kernel modules
If you do not see the expected output, then you cannot install the software on this system.

To determine whether an operating system patch is installed, enter a command similar to the following:
# /usr/sbin/patchadd -p | grep patch_number
If an operating system patch is not installed, then download it from the following Web site and install it:
The following local operating system groups and users are required if you are installing Oracle Database:
The Oracle Inventory group (
The Oracle software owner (
To determine whether these group and user already exist, and if necessary, to create them, follow these steps:
To determine whether the
oinstall group exists, enter the following command:
# more /var/opt/oracle/oraInst.loc
If the output of this command shows the
oinstall group name, then the group already exists.
If the
oraInst.loc file exists, then the output from this command is similar to the following:
inventory_loc=/u01/app/oracle/oraInventory inst_group=oinstall
inst_group parameter shows the name of the Oracle Inventory group,
If necessary, enter the following commands to create the
oinstall group:
# /usr/sbin/groupadd oinstall
To determine whether the
oracle user exists and belongs to the correct groups, enter the following command:
# id -a oracle
If the
oracle user exists, this command displays information about the groups to which the user belongs. The output should be similar to the following, indicating that
oinstall is the primary group and
dba is a secondary group:
uid=440(oracle) gid=200(oinstall) groups=201(dba),202(oper)
If necessary, complete one of the following actions:
If the
oracle user exists, but its primary group is not
oinstall or it is not a member of the
dba group, then enter the following command:
# /usr/sbin/usermod -g oinstall -G dba oracle
If the
oracle user does not exist, enter the following command to create it:
# /usr/sbin/useradd -g oinstall [-G dba] oracle
This command creates the
oracle user and specifies
oinstall as the primary group and
dba as an optional secondary group.
Enter the following command to set the password of the
oracle user:
# passwd -r files oracle
Create an Oracle base directory with a name similar to the following, and specify the correct owner, group, and permissions for it:
The Optimal Flexible Architecture (OFA) guidelines recommend that you use a path similar to the following for the Oracle base directory:
To determine where to create this directory:
Enter the following command to display information about all mounted file systems:
# df -k
This command displays information about all the file systems mounted on the system, including:
The physical device name
The total amount, used amount, and available amount of disk space, in kilobytes
The mount point directory for that file system
From the display, identify either one or two file systems that meet the following requirements:
A single file system with at least 1.2 GB of free disk space
Two or more file systems with at least 1.2 GB of free disk space in total
Note the name of the mount point directory for each file system that you identified.
To create the required directory and specify the correct owner, group, and permissions for it, follow these steps:
Note:In the following procedure, replace
/u01 and
/u02 with the appropriate mount point directories that you identified in Step 3 previously.
Enter the following command to create subdirectories in the mount point directory that you identified for the Oracle base directory:
# mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle
Change the owner and group of the directories that you created to the
oracle user and the
oinstall group:
# chown -R oracle:oinstall /u01/app/oracle
Change the permissions on the directories that you created to 775:
# chmod -R 775 /u01/app/oracle
When you configure the oracle user's environment later during the installation, set the
ORACLE_BASE environment variable to specify the Oracle base directory that you have created.
You run Oracle Universal Installer from the
oracle account. However, before you start Oracle Universal Installer, you must configure the environment of the
oracle user. To configure the environment, you must:
Set the default file mode creation mask (
umask) to 022 in the shell startup file.
Set the
DISPLAY environment variable.
To set the
oracle user's environment:
Start a new terminal session.
Enter the following command to ensure that X Window applications can display on this system:
$ xhost fully_qualified_remote_host_name
Complete one of the following steps:
If the terminal session is not connected to the system where you want to install the software, then log in to that system as the
oracle user.
If the terminal session is connected to the system where you want to install the software, then switch user to
$ su - oracle
To determine the default shell for the
oracle user, enter the following command:
$ echo $SHELL
Open the
oracle user's shell startup file in any text editor:
C shell (
csh or
% vi .login
Enter or edit the following line in the shell startup file, specifying a value of 022 for the default file mode creation mask:
umask 022
If the
ORACLE_HOME, or
ORACLE_BASE environment variable is set in the file, then remove the appropriate lines from the file.
Save the file, and exit from the editor.
To run the shell startup script, enter the following command:
Bourne shell, Bash shell, or Korn shell:
$ . ./.bash_profile
C shell:
% source ./.login
If you are not installing the software on the local system, then enter a command similar to the following to direct X applications to display on the local system:
Bourne, Bash, or Korn shell:
$ DISPLAY=local_host:0.0 ; export DISPLAY
C shell:
% setenv DISPLAY local_host:0.0
In this example,
local_host is the host name or IP address of the system that you want to use to display Oracle Universal Installer (your workstation or PC).
If you determined that the
/tmp directory had insufficient free disk space when checking the hardware requirements, then enter the following commands to set the
TMP and
TMPDIR environment variables. Specify a directory on a file system with sufficient free disk space.
Bourne, Bash, or Korn shell:
$ TMP=/directory $ TMPDIR=/directory $ export TMP TMPDIR
C shell:
% setenv TMP /directory % setenv TMPDIR /directory
Enter commands similar to the following to set the
ORACLE_BASE environment variables:
Bourne, Bash, or Korn shell:
$ ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle $ export ORACLE_BASE
C shell:
% setenv ORACLE_BASE /u01/app/oracle
In these examples,
/u01/app/oracle is the Oracle base directory that you created earlier.
Enter the following commands to ensure that the
ORACLE_HOME and
TNS_ADMIN environment variables are not set:
Bourne, Bash, or Korn shell:
$ unset ORACLE_HOME $ unset TNS_ADMIN
C shell:
% unsetenv ORACLE_HOME % unsetenv TNS_ADMIN
To verify that the environment has been set correctly, enter the following commands:
$ umask $ env | more
Verify that the
umask command displays a value of
022, or
0022 and the environment variables that you set in this section have the correct values.
On most Solaris systems, the product disc mounts automatically when you insert it into the drive. If the disc does not mount automatically, then follow these steps to mount it:
Switch user to root:
$ su - root
If necessary, enter a command similar to the following to eject the currently mounted disc, then remove it from the drive:
# eject
Insert the disc into the disc drive.
To verify that the disc mounted automatically, enter a command similar to the following:
# ls /dvd/dvd0
If this command fails to display the contents of the disc, then enter a command similar to the following:
# /usr/sbin/mount -r -F hsfs /dev/dsk/cxtydzs2 /dvd
In this example,
/dvd is the disc mount point directory and
/dev/dsk/cxtydzs2 is the device name for the disc device, for example
If Oracle Universal Installer displays the Disk Location dialog box, then enter the disc mount point directory path. For example:
Disc mounted automatically:
Disc mounted manually:
After configuring the
oracle user's environment, start Oracle Universal Installer and install Oracle Database, as follows:
To start Oracle Universal Installer, enter the following commands depending on the location of the installation files:
If the installation files are on disc, enter commands similar to the following, where
directory_path is the path of the db directory on the DVD:
$ cd /tmp
$ /directory_path/runInstaller
If the installation files are on the hard disk, change directory to the db directory and enter the following command:
$ ./runInstaller
If Oracle Universal Installer does not start, then refer to Oracle Database Client Installation Guide for Solaris Operating System (SPARC 64-Bit) for information about how to troubleshoot X Window display problems.

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un is now boasting that he has a miniaturized nuclear warhead at his disposal that is capable of being mounted to a ballistic missile.
This claim comes, as TruthRevolt reported last week, after Kim issued yet another threat that his military forces have readied its nuclear arsenal as a "preemptive" measure and have been carrying out drills in preparation of an attack.
Kim's announcement of the mini-nuke has been widely questioned, according to Reuters, and has not been verified. But the leader remains confident this is "a true nuclear deterrent," saying, "The nuclear warheads have been standardized to be fit for ballistic missiles by miniaturizing them."
North Korean state-run media added:
He stressed the importance of building ever more powerful, precision and miniaturized nuclear weapons and their delivery means.
Reuters notes that South Korea's defense ministry doubts that their northern neighbor has developed the miniature weapon or has successfully deployed a functioning intercontinental ballistic missile. The United States shares in that doubt and has previously questioned whether North Korea detonated a miniature H-bomb in January.
Nonetheless, things remain unstable in the region and Kim's insolence, unpredictability, and rhetoric are ramping up the tension.

Diabetes is growing into such an enormous problem in the United States that you could practically call it an epidemic. In only 20 short years the amount of US adults with diabetes grew by a staggering 45%, reaching 29.1 million in 2012, according to the National Diabetes Statistics Report. With so many people affected by it and all of the known health problems that go along with it (higher risk of heart attack and stroke, kidney failure, vision loss, etc.), more Americans than ever are actively searching for a solution to free them from this horrible disease.
When you start to look around you'll begin to notice that there is a large amount of products, books and programs, all promising help you rid yourself of diabetes. This sounds like a good thing on the surface, but once you realize most of those products are full of fluff and empty promises, many times even downright lies, you'll realize just how difficult it can be to actually locate something that gives real results.
That's where we come in. We're here to help make it easier for you to weed out the duds by giving you our unbiased opinion about what really works and what to avoid. Today we're taking a look at a program that's been steadily growing in popularity, join us as we take you through our Diabetes Destroyer Review.
What Exactly is Diabetes Destroyer?
On the surface in may look as though Diabetes Destroyer is just a simple book but what lies inside is a complete A-Z program specifically designed to help you reduce, and eventually even eliminate, your type 2 diabetes. It intends to do this by providing you with information on certain lifestyle changes required to get your body working in such a way that it fights against the disease. The changes it focuses on are mostly diet and exercise related, along with explanations of exactly why these changes are required.
The program was developed by a man named David Andrews, who actually used to suffer from type 2 diabetes and was very close to having to get both of his legs amputated. When he decided that just wasn't an option he began researching heavily, looking for anything that might save his legs. He practiced his findings religiously until he successfully reversed his type 2 diabetes in only a matter of weeks. He was so overwhelmed with joy that he decided to write everything down step by step in an easy to follow program called Diabetes Destroyer.
How Does Diabetes Destroyer Help with Your Diabetes?
Diabetes is caused by an imbalance of glucose and insulin from within your body. Basically, your body has too much sugar and isn't producing enough insulin to keep your glucose levels down to where they should be. Medications can help you live a somewhat normal life, but they only help with the symptoms and not the underlying biological problem that's causing you to have diabetes in the first place. There's also no guarantee that your diabetes won't get worse even if you do take medication.
The Diabetes Destroyer program aims to lower your lower your blood sugar naturally through changes in your diet by teaching you how to live glucose free, treating it as a toxin that should be avoided at all costs. That's not all though, it also promises to kick-start your pancreas into producing more insulin. When you have diabetes, your pancreas is surrounded by deposits of fat, reducing the amount of insulin it's able to produce. This is the main target of the Diabetes Destroyer program, to get rid of the fat surrounding your pancreas and eventually getting it working like new again.
What Do You Get When You Buy This Product?
At it's core, Diabetes Destroyer is a 3-part program. It includes a temporary meal plan, a trick to boost your metabolism and how to time your meals. Let's go ahead and break it down:
First Step – Temporary Meal Plan: You'll be following the temporary meal plan for at least a few weeks and this is the step specifically designed to give your pancreas that kick-start we talked about earlier. It might be difficult to change your eating habits so drastically in such a short period of time but it's important you stick to it. Even more importantly, don't cheat. You'll only be hurting yourself.
Second Step – Trick for Boosting Metabolism: Keeping a high metabolism will help keep your diabetes from returning once it starts to fade away. This step includes a specially designed 30-second workout to help get your metabolism going full speed, and also information regarding 3 types of berries that are great for boosting your metabolism as well.
Third Step – Timing Your Meals: What you eat is not the only thing you have to worry about when working toward reversing your type 2 diabetes, when you eat it is actually just as important. Your blood sugar production goes through high and lows throughout the day so meal timing is essential.
Apart from the core 3-part program you also get:
- 3 dessert recipes that are diabetic friendly
- Lots of information about bad habits and foods that can cause a spike in blood sugar
- Video guides for easier understanding of the material (not the whole program, just certain parts)
- A snack guide for type 2 diabetes sufferers
- A 60-day money back guarantee
Is This Product Work?
It can be a little difficult to find a conclusive answer to this question since it's an information based product with no regulation from governments or medical associations, therefore no published statistics. The other large factor is whether people really follow the whole program through to the end.
With that said, there are tons of testimonials out there and glowing reviews from very satisfied customers who have successfully reversed their type 2 diabetes and eliminated their dependence on medication and insulin injections for good. The program is very well presented and the information inside is based on scientific fact. There are many golden nuggets to be found throughout the entire system. This program really laser targets what you need to live a healthy lifestyle, so much so that it could really be beneficial to everyone, even those without diabetes. For the ones who do suffer, we truly believe this is your best chance say goodbye to this devastating disease once and for all.
- Information is well presented
- Based on real scientific facts and studies
- Not overly challenging to complete, especially considering what's on the line
- Tasty Recipes
- Can return within 60 days if you're not completely satisfied (no questions asked)
- It's a digital download so it feels like you're not getting much (in reality you're actually getting a ton of information)
What we love about Diabetes Destroyer is the fact that it cuts out all the fluff often found in many of the other books and programs. It gets straight to the point and immediately gets you on your way to reversing and eliminating your type 2 diabetes. If there's even a small chance your life could be dramatically changed for the better, why not take it? Plus, it even comes with a 60-day money back guarantee so what have you got to lose? Highly recommended.

Fort Supply1 William S. Key Boulevard
Fort Supply, OK 73841
Open by appointment only.
Use of drones over Oklahoma Historical Society property is not permitted without written approval of the facility director.
Fort Supply Historic Site
Camp Supply was established in late 1868 for the winter campaign against the Plains Indians in western Indian Territory. The military presence was felt for the next twenty-five years as soldiers patrolled the region in an effort to contain the tribes and keep out trespassers. Buffalo hunters, timber and horse thieves, whiskey traders, and boomers were a continual threat to stability in Indian Territory. Troops escorted cattle drives and protected the stage coaches, freight haulers, and travelers as they moved along the trails. Fort Supply was closed in 1894.
Five original buildings, artifacts, replicas of the 1868 stockade, army supply wagon, and mountain howitzer, provide visitors with a glimpse of Army life. The 1875 ordnance sergeant's quarters and the 1882 Civilian Employee Quarters are picket-style log buildings. These are rare examples of a common frontier construction method. The walls of these buildings consist of vertical logs. The 1879 commanding officer's quarters and the duplex 1882 officers' quarters are the only frame houses left on officers' row. The 1892 guardhouse was the only brick building erected by the Army at Fort Supply. It has been restored and furnished and contains the site's exhibit area.
Visit The Encyclopedia of Oklahoma History and Culture to find out more about Fort Supply.
This property is managed by the Friends of Historic Fort Supply.

Just watching at first, she quickly gets attracted by money and gets down to work. From now on her husband will have to pay for her "services".

12 April 2006
The Lotus Sport Cadena race team (which will campaign two Lotus
Sport Exige GT3 race cars after the signature of a two-year deal
between Cadena and Lotus Sport, the performance arm of Lotus Cars)
has announced that it is to be based at the Group Lotus headquarters
in Hethel, Norfolk.
Situated in a newly-converted workshop facility, the team will
have access to the established Lotus Sport expertise and
infrastructure, in addition to the all important 2.25 mile Lotus
Test Track. This will be used as part of the team's testing
programme throughout its maiden season in this year's Avon Tyres
British GT Championship, with an eye on entering the FIA GT3
European Championship in 2007.
Commenting on the move to the Hethel site, Paul Whight, Team
Principal of the new racing outfit explains: "It is important that
we work in close collaboration with Lotus Sport in what will be a
development year for both the team and the Exige GT3. Although Lotus
Sport Cadena isn't an official factory team, we have a very close
relationship with Lotus and by basing ourselves at Hethel it
reinforces our long term commitment to Lotus and to the Avon Tyres
British GT Championship."
Lotus Sport Cadena will field four drivers to contest the 2006
British GT series, all having raced previously in Lotus racing cars.
Cadena Lotus Sport Elise British GT driver Barrie Whight will once
again be partnered by Gavan Kershaw, Chief Vehicle Dynamics Engineer
for Lotus Engineering and driver of the Lotus Sport Elise in 2004
and the Mosler MT900R for the Cadena GTC team during the 2005 season.
George Mackintosh, who claimed last year's Yokohama Mid-Engined
Sportscar championship in a Lotus Elise, and Sam Blogg who took
second place in the series also competing in a Lotus Elise, complete
the team's second pairing.
The opening round of the 2006 Avon Tyres British GT season takes
place at Oulton Park on the 16th and 17th of April, with subsequent
visits to high profile national circuits, Mondello Park in Ireland

TV cop shows of the 70s & 80s Quiz
The start of a seventies or eighties cop show would frequently be announced by the roar of an engine and screeching of tyres, accompanied by a thumping theme tune. There were so many great cop and detective shows in the seventies and eighties albeit that most of them were imported from the US. And these show featured some of TV's greatest ever characters including lollipop sucking detectives, overweight Private Eyes and no-nonsense London coppers, "You're nicked son!". How many of these brilliant cop and detective shows from the 70s and 80s can you name? "Who loves ya baby?"

Volume 3, Episode 14: Toralei gets close to Hoodude to use his powers to torture the student bodies, until the ghouls figure out how to beat this conniving kitty at her own game.
Heath's passing a flirt to Scarah while walking through the hallways, unaware when he accidentally drops his notebook. Hoodude picks it up and runs after Heath to give it back, much to the latter's horror. Indeed, Hoodude trips over another student's tail and falls down the stairs, causing Heath to do so as well. Once they've recovered, Heath explains that as a voodoo doll, Hoodude should not touch other people's stuff, since whatever happens to him while he holds them happens to the person who owns the item.
Toralei, Meowlody, and Purrsephone overhear this and Toralei gets an idea. She flirts with Hoodude in order to use his powers to torture Frankie and her friends. Her first act gets Hoodude to ask Draculaura for her pen, so he can 'write down Toralei's number'. Meowlody trips Hoodude, which causes him to fall down the steps. Draculaura feels Hoodude's pain because of this. Next, Hoodude is made to ask Frankie for her spoon at lunch, at which point Purrsephone makes him slip on some water. Hoodude falls hard on his back, a fate that gets transferred to Frankie. The third victim is Clawdeen, whose notebook is borrowed by Hoodude. Toralei pushes him in the fountain, where he is attacked by tentacles, which Clawdeen ends up feeling the hits from. Fourthly, Lagoona's frisbee is borrowed, which Toralei in a pretend-game throws into a cactus field for Hoodude to catch. Needless to say, Lagoona felt the needles.
Lagoona goes to her friends and relays what happened to her and Frankie points out she had a similar experience. Draculaura questions why Toralei has been hanging out with Hoodude, and the ghouls get their answer when Toralei pushes in one of Hoodude's needles as he holds Cleo's Biteology book, causing her chest pain. Lagoona then gets an idea and, after giving Hoodude Toralei's bracelet, lets him practice off the high dive of the pool as a test for Swim Team membership. This causes Toralei to get splashed with water for the next three hours.
- The title of the webisode is based on the sentence "Do do that voodoo that you do so well" from the song You Do Something To Me by Cole Porter.
- Normally, Hoodude's voodoo doll effect works automatically and affects only the male monsters in the vicinity. In this webisode, his powers don't seem to work automatically (since the dinosaur boy was unaffected by his fall down the stairs). Instead, Hoodude has to hold onto another's possession and whatever happens to him then happens to the other, no matter their gender or distance from him.

Festival of the Sacred Tooth
Kandy Travel Blog› entry 24 of 68 › view all entries
The Esala Perehera or Festival of the Sacred Tooth is something IŌĆÖve wanted to see ever since I was a little kid. So when I decided to take six months off, the first thing on my list of what to see was this perahera or parade. In fact, being in
The perahera falls in either late July or early August every year depending on the full moon (Esala full moon) and has been performed in some form or another since at least the 5th century AD. [The modern version of the parade has taken place in
For Sri Lankan Buddhists this is the festival of the year. The festival lasts 10 days and ends on the full moon day with a grand finale, the Perahera. On this final day, the tooth relic is paraded around on the back of the largest tusker (elephant) through the streets of
As I said, IŌĆÖve waited a long time to see this parade and it did not disappoint at all. This yearŌĆÖs perahera was the first since the war ended, so there was a huge buzz about this yearŌĆÖs festival. In fact, 400, 000 people came out to see the festival; to put this in perspective, Kandy, Sri LankaŌĆÖs second city, has a population of about 120,000 people! As one would expect, the security around the event was huge.
Once the parade started, literally for 3 hours 1000ŌĆÖs of dancers, torch bearers, drummers, musicians, fire dancers and about 100 elephants all took to the streets. We had a balcony view from the QueenŌĆÖs hotel, one of
Of course the highlight of the perahera itself was the large tusker, covered in a pure white sheet, with lights adorned all over him with the golden casket of the Sacred Tooth Relic on top. As the tusker walked a white carpet was placed in front of it to walk along, its feet never touched the pavement. Definitely a sight to see.
After the tooth had passed, there was still another hour of dancers, etc. The highlight being the Tamil Kavadi dancers who are pierced with hooks with chains attached to their backs while another dancer holds on to the chains and both dance down the street. Now picture about 20-30 of these dancers all in unison! Crazy.
All in all that night was everything I had imagined growing up. People in the past have brought me books and even videos on the Perahera, I have always refrained from looking at them because I wanted to see and hear the experience first hand. IŌĆÖm so glad I waited, it was an experience I will never forget.

Barrington exhibit
ODESSA - The Ellen No and euml;l Art Museum and four other accredited West Texas art museums in the West Texas Triangle, including the Museum of the Southwest, are featuring the work of Texas artist Joe Barrington.
Barrington's sculpture is on display in the Ellen Noel Art Museum's Sculpture and Sensory Garden through Labor Day. "Tiny the Driller on Daylight Tour, Rig #1, Lit'l Joe's Drilling Company" is a seven-foot metal sculpture enjoying a lunch of summer sausage and crackers.
A large, welded steer created by Barrington now keeps watch on visitors to the Museum of the Southwest on the west side of the building. Barrington will be at the Midland museum, 1705 W. Missouri Ave., July 18 for a public reception.
Barrington is a Texas sculptor whose art reveals a sense of humor. He is a storyteller with his figurative work in metal. On his Web site, Barrington tells how his father gave him his first welding hood at the age of two as he followed his dad around the shop. "Cutting, welding, and forming steel has always been in my blood he said, "and then I discovered art."
He received his bachelor of fine arts in sculpture from Midwestern State University in 1980 and has been steadily welding his way onto the professional art scene. Barrington lives in Throckmorton and his studio and gallery are in Albany. His sculpture is drawn from a lifetime of living in rural Texas, with the people, animals, and folklore all being an integral part of the tales he shares with his viewers.
The West Texas Triangle is a consortium of accredited art museums consisting of the Ellen No and euml;l Art Museum in Odessa, the San Angelo Museum of Fine Arts, The Old Jail Art Center in Albany, The Grace Museum in Abilene and The Museum of the Southwest.
In 2006, the consortium began a collective campaign using the tag line" West Texas Triangle - The Space for Art." Its first collaboration was exhibition of the works of internationally known Texas sculptor Jesus Moroles during the summer of 2007.
Admission is free to the Museum of the Southwest and the Ellen No and euml;l Art Museum. Hours of operation are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday and 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday.

Exhibit opening
Paintings by Amber George will be on display in the exhibit "Roots and Branches" at the Museum of the Southwest, 1705 W. Missouri Ave., beginning Friday. Her exhibition is the third in the Contemporary Series "A Sense of Place."
She will be on hand for a members-only opening reception from 6 to 7:30 p.m. Friday.
George does encaustic painting, which was made popular in the 1950s when Jasper Johns used pop icons for his imagery.
Created by the Egyptians to provide a lasting way to immortalize their dead by painting a likeness of them onto the more ordinary linen wrapped mummies before burial, it is a combination of bee's wax, pigment and resin. The artist mixes and works the material while it is hot. Once it cools, it hardens to become a durable layer of paint.

NORTH NEWTON, KAN. -- In his long life, J. Winfield Fretz had many friends, numerous interests and a web of church connections. A year after Fretz died at age 94 on Jan. 24, 2005, the bulk of his and his wife Marguerite Fretz's estate (Marguerite, Bethel College '36, died in 2002) has been given to support one of those interests at a church institution he served for many years.
A gift of close to $300,000 will go to Bethel College's endowment for the support of the Kansas Institute for Peace and Conflict Resolution (KIPCOR).
Fretz was a professor of sociology at Bethel College from 1942-63 and served as Bethel's acting president in his last years at the college, before going on to be the founding president of Conrad Grebel College (now University College) in Waterloo, Ont. He was also acting president of Associated Mennonite Biblical Seminary in Elkhart, Ind., 1983-84. He was a graduate of Bluffton (Ohio) College, now University, with honorary doctorates from both Bluffton and Conrad Grebel.
Winfield and Marguerite Fretz left Canada in 1979 and retired to North Newton. The couple lived just behind where KIPCOR had its first office, in the house called Richert House just south of the Fine Arts Center.
Toward the end of his wife's life, "Winfield was dedicated to Marguerite's care," Gary Flory, KIPCOR director, remembers. "He wasn't able to get out very much." But Fretz also maintained his intense interest in the world around him, including the progress of peace and justice work at the academic level, and he and Flory would often visit and talk about KIPCOR's progress.
KIPCOR got off to a rocky start. It was initiated in 1985 on the promise of a half-million dollar gift that did not materialize. It managed to limp along for several years, and eventually developed into a viable organization that trains and works with mediators on many levels. In 2003, KIPCOR celebrated a health milestone when it moved its offices three doors down from Richert House to the newly renovated Kaufman House, its current home.
"I think part of Winfield's interest in KIPCOR came from that building," Flory says. "He'd been affiliated with small colleges and he knew the struggles of keeping programs going. I think Kaufman House said to him, 'KIPCOR is going to be around for a while.'"
This wasn't Fretz's first financial connection to KIPCOR, although the previous one was in his honor. A gift of $12,000 from Lois and Richard D. Reimer of Smithville, Ohio, made in 1999 in appreciation of Fretz, went to support the Peace Lecture Series. The Peace Lectures were established in 1973, and in 1992 KIPCOR and the series merged to form an institute administered by Bethel College. (The Reimers gave an additional $3,000 in 2002.)
"My father and mother saw in KIPCOR an opportunity for partnership with Bethel College and a way to encourage academic scholarship in the much needed realm of peace studies and conflict resolution," says Sara Fretz Goering of Silver Spring, Md., a 1976 graduate of Bethel College. "Dad's enthusiasm for academic programs in conflict mediation and restorative justice at large universities and small colleges grew as these developed over the past 15 years. Although his field of study was sociology, he wholeheartedly supported the idea of studying peacemaking on personal, local, national and international levels.
"The relationship and bond that KIPCOR has with Bethel College is also tremendously significant," she adds. "Our hope is that our parents' gift to KIPCOR will help provide an ongoing endowment so that the institute has the flexibility and courage to take on new challenges as well as sustain the current programs." Fretz Goering has two brothers, Stephen Fretz, Fresno, Calif., and Thomas Fretz (Bethel College '69), Olathe. Her son Joel Goering, Kansas City, Kan., is a 2004 graduate of Bethel College with a major in global peace and justice studies.
The Fretz estate gift will produce for KIPCOR an annual income of $15,000 from interest earnings. "We can't overestimate the importance of gifts like this that help ensure KIPCOR's long-term stability," Flory says.

David Miliband was overheard telling aides that his brother Ed would "crash and burn", according to a new biography of the Labour leader co-written by the Huffington Post UK's political director Mehdi Hasan.
Serialised in the Mail on Sunday, ED: The Milibands and the Making of a Labour Leader, written with James Macintyre, reveals the "complex and often tortuous" relationship that exists between the Miliband brothers, a fraternal bond that has deteriorated in recent years to a state where it has adversely affected the entire Miliband family.
David lost the leadership battle to Ed in September 2010, a defeat that left the elder Miliband "psychologically scarred", according to a member of his younger brother's inner circle, and unlikely to return to frontline politics while Ed is in opposition.
Detailed in the book, first published last year and released as an updated paperback on Monday, David is said to "view members of Team Ed with disdain and has been known to 'blank them' in the corridors of Westminster."
Yet despite the schism, Ed's inner circle remains acutely aware of David's ability, viewing him as a "formidable politician" whose return to frontline politics would provide a welcome boost for the party ahead of the next general election.
The serialisation also reveals an equally complicated relationship between the Labour leader and the shadow chancellor Ed Balls, with some in the Labour movement convinced that Balls will ultimately try to unseat Miliband. As one former cabinet minister put it, "I just can't believe that Ed Balls doesn't want to be leader of the Labour Party".
One Miliband aide went further, suggesting that should "Ed [Miliband] fail" he would be "smoothly" replaced by Yvette Cooper, Balls' wife and the current shadow home secretary, in a "coronation".
The timing of these latest revelations of splits and plots couldn't be worse for the younger Miliband, as Labour MPs and delegates gather in Manchester for the party's annual conference.
ED: The Milibands and the Making of a Labour Leader by Mehdi Hasan and James Macintyre is published by Biteback.

In the early 1800s, Congress debates the advisibility of re-establishing a military training academy at West Point, where officers were trained during the Revolutionary War. One of the academy's strongest supporters is flirtatious Carolyn Bainbridge, whose father also believed in West Point. Senator Henry Clay of Kentucky persuades the others to fund the academy for a year, and the first group of cadets assemble. Among them is Carolyn's aristocratic fiancé, Howard Shelton, who is attending purely for her sake, and Kentucky woodsman Joe Dawson, who is alight with patriotic ferver. The school's commander is Major Sam Carter, a life-long military man, who does not believe that a good soldier can be created in the classroom. His resentment of the academy is shared by the regular soldiers stationed there, including leader Scully, but civilian teachers Florimond Massey, Jared Danforth and Alden Brown are enthusiastic. Carolyn follows the cadets to the fort and lives in a nearby tavern, which is run by Mrs. Thompson and her servant, Benny Havens. Soon after their arrival, the cadets visit the tavern, where Joe mistakes Carolyn for a serving girl. Intrigued by Joe's masculinity and good nature, Carolyn keeps up the charade. The students begin their studies and are particularly interested in Massey's lectures on strategy, although Carter cancels the class in favor of forced marching. The cadets have several run-ins with the soldiers, including a brutal game of Indian lacrosse, and Carter continutes to drive them hard in the hope of forcing them to quit. Meanwhile, Joe learns Carolyn's true identity and that she is engaged to Howard, and believes that she was deliberately teasing him. Carolyn tries to explain her true feelings, but Joe refuses to listen. Distressed over Carter's harshness to the cadets, Carolyn writes an anonymous letter to Congress asserting that he is incompetent. Later, Carter demands that the cadets reveal the culprit and when they do not, orders them to "ride the cannon." The notorious punishment requires the men to sit astride large cannons as they are dragged by horses across rough terrain, and anyone who falls off will be dismissed from the academy. As night falls, only ten men, including Howard and Joe, are left, but they are determined to stay on the cannons until the end. Howard is shamed by Joe into taking pride in being a cadet, and the ten men endure the punishment throughout the night. In the morning, Carter receives orders to report with his men to General William Henry Harrison in the Indiana territory. Before leaving, Joe again rebuffs Carolyn's romantic overtures by saying that they are too dissimilar. As soon as the soldiers and ten cadets arrive at the fort, Harrison puts Carter in charge, as he leaves with his own men to seek out Tecumseh, their Indian opponent. Carter is then kidnapped by Tecumseh's men and taken to the Indian encampment, but the cadets determine to rescue him. Scully is reluctant to take their orders, but Joe and Howard take charge and organize the small contingent. Using strategy taught by Massey, the cadets succeed in rescuing Carter by tricking the Indians into thinking that they are surrounded. Joe is wounded in the leg, and although Carter, who has changed his mind about the cadets, later urges him to return to West Point and accept his commission, Joe refuses because he is no longer perfectly fit. Carolyn arrives at the fort and insists on marrying Joe, despite his continued objections. She stows away in his wagon as he leaves the fort, and Joe happily surrenders to his fate. Back at the academy, Carter praises all the cadets, including Howard, as they graduate and receive their certificates of proficiency.

Child Maltreatment Program
Child Life Specialists: Helping Hospitalized Children Have Fun Did you know that there are recognized health benefits to including fun in a child's hospital stay? In fact, play is one of the most powerful and effective means of stress reduction in children. Thus, a well-structured Child Life Program is a very important tool for decreasing the trauma of a hospitalization in infants, children, and adolescents.
Child life specialists are special members of the health care team. It is their job to provide opportunities for hospitalized children to play, to learn, and to express themselves. A child life specialist helps pediatric patients understand their medical experiences, thereby helping alleviate any anxiety and stress related to illness, separation, hospitalization, and medical encounters.
Child Life Program at Mercy Health - Children's Hospital: 419-251-4662
A Safe Place to Play
At Mercy Health - Children's Hospital, child life specialists maintain a playroom. This area is considered a safe haven for pediatric patients. This means that no medical interventions, tests, or procedures can be done in this area. In the playroom, children are free to make choices. This is important because pediatric patients cannot always be afforded choices in other aspects of their care.
The safe and creative atmosphere of the playroom encourages children to feel free to express themselves and to explore their feelings about illness and hospitalization. Here, children engage in therapeutic play and recreational activities with other children. They also benefit from interactions with child life specialists and volunteers who are not directly involved in their medical care. Playroom choices range from movies, video games and computers, to arts and crafts of all kinds; and from dolls and trucks to infant gyms and toddler riding toys. Almost all of the toys and activities in the playroom are also available for use with pediatric patients who are confined to their hospital rooms.
Clowns, Dogs, and Other Special Visitors
Special visitors and special activities add their own dimension to a child's hospital stay. Child life specialists are responsibile for arranging such visits and activities. Dr. I.C. Giggles performs clowning routines and magic, bringing smiles to our patients, families, and staff. Believing that laughter is, indeed, among the best medicines, he fills his doctor's bag with tricks designed to bring humor to the inpatient pediatric unit. Three days a week, special pet therapy dogs visit our patients in their rooms. These dogs are trained and licensed through Therapy Dogs International. Each dog has his/her own special way of comforting the children.
Celebrating Special Occasions
In addition to all of the other things that child life specialists do, they never miss a chance to celebrate a patient's birthday, a special occasion, or a holiday in the pediatric inpatient unit. Their ultimate goals are to make hospitalized children comfortable and to make their time spent in the hospital as much like home as possible!

The purpose of this library is to try to make it more difficult to make coding mistakes that incorrectly mix units of measure. This is done with a set of C++ classes that provide type-safe manipulation of units of measure for various properties. The classes provide compile-time units checking as opposed to run-time checking.
Compile-time checking is far less difficult and expensive to track down errors. For example, if the developer tries to mix feet and meters, a compile-time error will result. Without the type-safe classes, this error would not be found until run-time (if at all!).
Extreme care was taken in designing this library so that the run-time execution using the classes does not suffer any penalty versus using native double precision types. For instance, the classes have no virtual functions, so the compiler does not generate a virtual table. The resulting memory footprint of the class is therefore the same as a double. And since the type checking is done at compile time, there is no run-time performance hit when using the classes.
