The Obama administration chided Israel Monday over its push for new settlement construction in territories the Palestinians claim for a future state, using particularly tough language in urging its top Mideast ally to "reconsider."
White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said the U.S. opposes the "unilateral actions" and warned they could "complicate efforts" to resume direct peace talks.
"We urge Israeli leaders to reconsider these unilateral decisions and exercise restraint, as these actions are counterproductive," Carney said. A State Department official called them "especially damaging."
The U.S. also previously opposed the unilateral move by the Palestinians to seek statehood recognition before the United Nations.
Israel on Friday announced that it would move ahead on plans to build 3,000 settler homes in the West Bank and east Jerusalem on territory the Palestinians claim to punish the Palestinians for winning the U.N. recognition. It also said it would begin planning work in E1, where construction would essentially end hopes for an eventual Palestinian state to be contiguous.
Building in E1 would sever the link between the West Bank and east Jerusalem, which the Palestinians claim for a future capital. It would also cut off the northern part of the West Bank from its southern flank.
Israel fiercely objected to the U.N. upgrade, saying Palestinian statehood could only come from direct negotiations and unilateral moves would harm that prospect.
The State Department, though, said the settlement construction plans are "especially damaging" to prospects for a resumption in Israeli-Palestinian peace talks and run counter to longstanding U.S. policy.
"The United States opposes all unilateral actions, including West Bank settlement activity and housing construction in East Jerusalem, as they complicate efforts to resume direct, bilateral negotiations, and risk prejudging the outcome of those negotiations," spokesman Mark Toner said in a statement. "This includes building in the E1 area as this area is particularly sensitive and construction there would be especially damaging to efforts to achieve a two-state solution."
The Palestinians say construction in that territory would kill any hope for establishing a viable state of Palestine. Successive U.S. governments have agreed, and under intense American pressure, Israel has avoided building settlements in the area. It has, however, developed roads and infrastructure and built a police station.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

RomanceClass.com Advice
This seems to be a confusing situation but I don't think it is.
You said she has never lied to you.
Starting with that, then you have nothing to worry about. It is only natural for her to have emotional ups and downs given the deaths in her family.
My advice is to keep talking to her as normal and be especially attentive to her feelings. Be open to conversation, be supportive, be trusting, and be caring. Things will work out fine, I believe.
Good luck,
-- from George

British Waffeelz
The members were all astonished and disappointed at what they heard, none if them thought their army would end up like this and looked over at the general expecting answers.
The general sighed and got to his feet.
"What ever this man said is true, but not completely... I have tried my best for law and order out here and I can have my eyes at a hundred places..." He said calmly. "Now if you may, I'll have to do something about my 'soldiers' and hope to get back to you later...and as fr the peace treaty, we'll seal it later.
Aries face palmed when Michel said that, it was better if she would be kicked out or executed as such but then the punishment the governor was planning on giving would be worst.
The parliament members left with a warning to the general.

Customize Your Shoes, Boots or Sneakers with Bold-Colored Designer Shoe Laces
The issue of designer shoelaces is something that has not yet hit on the heads of many people. This is because no one has ever dreamt of designers taking fashion to that level. Most international designers are from European region and have shown their ability by launching their brands or make it so you buy shoelaces online. For instance, there is the latest Marc Jacobs Shoelaces, an addition to the Jacobs brand. Most laces are 100% polyester and come in a variety of colors. The most common colors are white and black, with some contrast text printed on the laces.
Designer shoelaces are now ringing in the minds of young and trendy people, and they will want to try them. As a matter of fact, shoelace designers have given shoelaces another unique look that you won't be left behind without testing. You can search for the best and unique lace styles from online markets. It is a guarantee that you will get the one that you can integrate with your shoes and look great. Customize your look with these styles.
It is acceptable that you might not know how to adapt your designer shoelaces with your collection. However, that should not be the reason as to why you cannot use this new trend in shoe accessories. You can check out on how celebrities are adapting the lace styles, steal the idea and then work on it a little bit to make it a unique look for you. This is how many users have managed to understand the appeal of the shoe laces.
As you choose the lace style that appeals you the most, you need to keep a few things in mind. The key thing is to make the shoelaces and the eye holes of your shoe be in sync. The common styles of these shoe accessories are flat and round laces. Another thing to consider is the durability of the design material. Designer shoe laces have been made out of high quality materials which will give the best look to your shoes. I believe that you can get the best information about the brand to choose by going through different threads posted on various online brand review sites.
Finally, the innovation has gone to the extent of designers adding LED lights to their shoelace brands. Kids and teenagers have gone nuts for those shoelaces. There is a controversy about these LED shoe laces because some people think that they were designed for young teenagers. This is not the case at all because the laces not only can be fitted with shoes but also with other costumes. This blinking brand is ideal for festivals, raves and discos.

"My Body Is Not Your Battleground" is a photographic series I have been shooting in the UK recently, with the hope to explore what it means to be a young South Asian woman in the contemporary Western space and the relationship we have with our own bodies as a result.
I know so many beautiful, talented and progressive South Asian women, and i'm desperate to show them as such. It's about time we start making ourselves more visible and speaking on behalf of ourselves, rather than becoming a voiceless pawn within the battleground of politics.
As i've been shooting in the UK, i've been becoming more aware of the comparison that needs to be made, which is why I would like to travel to Pakistan, the birthplace of my parents, and photograph young women there. I want to show the women that embody the fact that religion and culture and modernity are compatible. Which is where i need your help! Your support with enable me to travel to Pakistan from the UK at the end of March and be well equipped with plenty of photographic supplies.
I've become a lot more urgently interested in the idea of self – self-love, self-representation. self-reflection. So this project is just my attempt at making these wonderful women visible in a world that tries to dismiss and hush them.
There is also an element of self exploration in this work, as i have not been to Pakistan since i was 12, so the experience will definitely be influential in my photographic work.
The UK based part of this project will be exhibited in April 2014 at Brixton East, Brixton, in The Body Narratives exhibition "A Different Mirror".
The Pakistan part will be added to the series as a complete body of work for my graduate show in June 2014 at Free Range, at the Old Truman Brewery, East London.
Thank you so much for supporting me in this, you have no idea how much it will mean to me. This project is important to me and your support will make this opportunity possible.
I'll be making some cute tote bags that will look like this so you can rep' the brown girls! (i will be revealing some design additions in the near future!)
I am currently shooting UK based South Asian women, so please contact me at email@example.com if you'd like to be a part of it! Please email me for any questions regarding this project…I love hearing from interesting people!
+£100 – will cover about 20-25 rolls of 120mm film
+£200 – will cover 40-50 rolls of 120mm film
+£300 – will cover all film costs and enable to me meet various contacts in Pakistan and engage in a more in depth discussion about South Asian women and the numerous issues that I would like to address in this work
+£400 – as well as the above, I will be able to look into creating more work while in Pakistan, and collaborate with other artists to create performative video pieces.
music is "MIA" – Boom Skit (via Soundcloud)
Risks and challenges
I'm confident that with the funding, nothing will go wrong! My only challenge is to organise and make plenty of contacts who can become part of this project in Pakistan, but I've already started making contacts have found some lovely women who are keen to have their portrait taken, so everything is on track.

Brussels, 24 Jumadil Awal 1434/3 April 2013 (MINA) – Criticizing rising hostility against Muslims and their religion in the European continent, Turkey's minister to the European Union said that Islam has become a reality in Europe, calling on Europeans to better understand the peaceful Islamic tenets.
"It is Islamophobia rather than Islam that is visible in France and across Europe," EU Minister Egemen Bagis was quoted as saying by Hurriyet Daily News, according to OnIslam.net reports monitored by Mi'raj News Agency (MINA)
He was responding to statements by far-right French politician Marine Le Pen that Islam was more visible in France than before.
Le Pen also reiterated rejection to the accession of Muslim-majority Turkey's to the EU But the Turkish minister rejected the statements, saying that Islam has become a reality in Europe.
"We know Ms. Le Pen's statements on Turkey and our values but we don't care too much." Muslims are estimated to account for 8 to 9 percent of the population in the EU member-states.
Far-right politicians across Europe have accelerated their rhetoric against Muslim minorities in Europe in recent years.
In France, Le Pen's party has accelerated rhetoric against Muslim immigration, heaping problems in the European country as scarce jobs and housing problems on Muslims.
In 2010, Le Pen compared Muslim prayers on the streets to Nazi occupation. In Germany, sentiments against Muslims have been on the rise, with a heated debate on the Muslim immigration into the country.
In the Netherlands, far-right Dutch lawmaker Wilders has called for banning the Muslim face-veil in the country and stopping immigration from Muslim countries.
In Sweden, the far-right Sweden Democrats have unveiled plans to impose a moratorium on building new mosques in the Scandinavian country.
Peaceful Islam
The Turkish minister called on the Europeans to seek to understand the true teachings of Islam.
"It would be more beneficial if they tried to understand the real message of Islam: peace, brotherhood, sympathy," Bagis said.
"The crisis that Europe is going through is a sign that they are not on the right track."
Bagis also urged Europeans to defend their values and avoid using the issue of Turkey's accession into the EU to gain votes.
"Ms. Le Pen does not need to have exploitation. Instead she should communicate with the French public. They should see that playing politics over Turkey is not working anymore."
Turkey, a predominantly-Muslim but a secular country which straddles Europe and Asia, applied for EU's membership in 1959 and became an EU candidate in 1999.
But Ankara's half-century quest to join Europe's 27-country club has been dogged by problems since it was made an official candidate in October 2005.
France and Germany lead opposition to Turkey's membership in the European Union.
If negotiations succeed, Turkey would be the first major Muslim country to join the European bloc.
Turkey has repeatedly aroused suspicions that some EU governments are trying to keep the door shut before it becoming an EU member because of doubts over letting a Muslim-dominated country join their "Christian club." (T/P012/P03)

Commonwealth Games: James Magnussen leads Aussie sweep of 100m freestyle; Belinda Hocking wins 200m backstroke over Emily Seebohm
Australia filled the podium in the blue-riband swimming event of the Commonwealth Games, with James Magnussen taking gold in the 100m freestyle ahead of two of his countrymen on day four.
Magnussen finished with a wet sail to take gold in a time of 48.11 just ahead of rival compatriots Cameron McEvoy (silver, 48.34) and Tommaso D'Orsogna (bronze, 49.04).
The world champion said coming in to the race he felt McEvoy was his only real competition.
"It was a two-man race," the 23-year-old told Channel Ten.
"I had to sit next to Cam and switch up a gear when I had to and I did."
McEvoy's victory over Magnussen at the national championships earlier this year had him under the spotlight but D'Orsogna somewhat snuck in under the radar and, while obviously thrilled with his bronze, was disappointed they could not go faster.
"It wasn't the time I wanted, but it doesn't matter at the end of the day," D'Orsogna said.
"It was all about the race that night. In the end, what matters is that we got one, two, three."
Hocking takes 200m backstroke ahead of Seebohm
In the race immediately prior, Belinda Hocking took gold in the women's 200m backstroke, just ahead of a fast-finishing Emily Seebohm.
Hocking took out the final in a Games record time of 2:07.24 as Seebohm finished well in 2:08.51 to edge Canada's Hilary Caldwell by 0.04 of a second.
"This is what it's all about," Hocking said.
Even so, the 23-year-old appears to be aiming for more gold further down the road.
"I'm really looking forward to the Pan Pacs," she said.
"18 more months and it will be Rio. No rest for the wicked."
Ben Treffers and Mitch Larkin ensured Australia secured four of the six backstroke medals on offer on day four, taking gold and silver respectively in the 50m final.
Coutts overcomes illness to win silver in 200m IM
Alicia Coutts added a silver medal in the 200m individual medley to her seven Games golds, but surrendered one of the titles she won in Delhi.
An under-the-weather Coutts finished in a time of 2:10.30, over two seconds behind England's Siobhan O'Connor, who set a new Games record of 2:08.21 to win gold.
"I wanted to go out there and give it what I had left," Coutts said.
"I haven't had the best meet. I knew that I had to go out there and swim my own race.
"I went in with no expectations because I wasn't really sure how I was going to go. I am happy with a silver, considering."
Her resignation to being below her best was due to to a bacterial infection that has hampered her preparation and competition.
"I had Campylobacter a few weeks ago," she said.
"The team doctor said that I should get some tests when I go home, because it has really taken me for a six."
Brittany Elmslie continued her strong Games, adding a bronze in the 50m butterfly to her gold medals from the 4x100m and 4x200m freestyle relays.
Madeleine Scott won silver in the para-sport 100m breaststroke behind New Zealand's Sophie Pascoe and just in front of 13-year-old Scot Erraid Davies.
Campbell sisters to face off yet again
Cate Campbell qualified fastest for the women's 100m freestyle final in 53.19, with younger sister Bronte second fastest (53.67).
Cate was not going all-out in the semi, conserving some energy for tomorrow's final while Bronte has clearly had enough of being compared to her world-beating older sister.
When asked how she would beat the girl next to her - referring to Cate - she joked: "Who? The girl in lane six?"
She was referring to compatriot Emma McKeon, who will swim the final from lane six after qualifying with the third-fastest time of 53.92.
When she actually started talking about Cate, she said she is just focusing on racing her best race.
"I don't think about that," she said.
"One day I might beat Cate. It's not a measure of my success, it is a measure of how good she is."
Christian Sprenger overcame a shoulder injury to qualify with the third-fastest time for the 50m breaststroke final.
Australians break Games record in 4x200m freestyle final
McEvoy backed up in the last event of the night, joining David McKeon, Ned McKendry and Thomas Fraser-Holmes to claim gold in the 4x200m freestyle relay.
The win added to a second relay gold to McEvoy's two individual silver medals in the 100m and 200m freestyle.
"It is awesome, such a good night," the 20-year-old said.
"I had the same night as I did two nights ago. For my first Commonwealth Games, it is awesome to do that with these three boys."
The Australian time of 7:07.38 took gold from Scotland (7:09.18) and South Africa (7:10.36).

|Monday, 07 November 2011
DuPont hasn't revealed what company picked up the license aside from mentioning that it's a leading Asian manufacturer of AMOLED technology. So that narrows it down to just about anyone that uses AMOLED at all. "AMOLED televisions clearly represent the future," says DuPont president David B. Miller. "They are preferred by consumers for their superior performance, they are more energy efficient and the process technology we're licensing allows them to be manufactured much more cost effectively."

Walking on eggshells - the liberal dilemma
Tip-toeing round religion
"Islamophobia", "religiophobia", "free speech"
We can bury our heads in the sand but ....
The following figures have emerged from studies and surveys in recent years:
Please contact us for the sources of these data.
Is it "islamophobic" to ask what proportion of Muslims believe what - as this application illustrates?
What are the real causes of violent and non-violent extremism?
Perhaps "Prevent" should also look at our history?
Does anyone have the right not to be offended?
I am in favour of passing a law which prevents people doing anything that would offend me - the world would then be a happier place.
What about our sensitivities?
Quick summary
Do we tar everyone with the same brush?
An example
On 23rd November, 2012 a state dinner was held at Windsor Castle for the Emir of Kuwait. The Queen who hosted the dinner is head of the Church Of England and the Emir, his family and their entourage are Muslim.

It's easy if you try

Imagine all the people living life in peace
You, you may say
I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one
I hope some day you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people sharing all the world
You, you may say

I hope some day you'll join us

Girl (12) secures almost €4m after crash left her in wheelchair
A SCHOOLGIRL left paraplegic after suffering horrific injuries in a road accident has secured €3.9m in settlement of her High Court action.
Britney Arendse (12) had to be cut from the wreckage and was on life support for several weeks after the accident in June 2009.
The crash occurred when another car on the wrong side of the road collided with the car in which the child was travelling with her mother and friends on a family day out to the beach.
Ms Arendse, of Mullagh, Kells, Co Meath, who was a back seat passenger wearing her seat belt suffered severe injuries in the accident which occurred on the Julianstown to Duleek Road on June 28th, 2009.
Today, Alexander Owens SC, for the child, told Mr Justice Kevin Cross the case had settled for €3.9m.
Through her mother, Bridgitte Arendse, the child had sued the driver of the other car — Sean McKenna, Drogheda Road, Duleek, Co Meath — and its owner, Patricia Mc Kenna, of the same address.
It was claimed Mr McKenna was driving on the wrong side of the road as he approached the car in which Ms Arendse was travelling.
Counsel said his client suffered spinal injuries, is now paralysed from the waist down and had also suffered severe abdominal injuries.
Mr Owens said liability was was never an issue in the case.
While Ms Arendse lost a year of school, she is now coping well with her studies, counsel added.
Approving the settlement, Mr Justice Kevin Cross congratulated the legal teams for an "excellent" settlement and said he hoped Ms Arendse manages to build a great life for herself and he was sure she would.
The Arendse family moved to Ireland from South Africa several years ago. Before the accident, Ms Arendse was a very sporty girl and loved to swim, the court heard.
The local community had also raised several thousands euros to help the family after the accident.

Birmingbelle of the Week: Tiffeny Curier
As you all know I was born and raised in Birmingham, Alabama, but like most folks from the Deep South when I was a teen I couldn't wait to leave. After living in Berkeley, California; Seattle, Washington; and Louisville, Kentucky I returned to my hometown two years ago. At first, I hated it. Then I realized I wasn't giving the city a chance. I've spent the last few months getting to know Birmingham and the people in the city who are working hard to make it a beautiful place to live.
This bring us to our new Georgia Mae feature, Birmingbelle of the Week. What is a Birmingbelle? A Birmingbelle is a woman living in Birmingham who is redefining the modern Southern belle. She knows that being a belle is about being an empowered woman who is working to uplift other women in her community. Each week I'll feature a Birmingbelle on this blog as a way to celebrate the women who are helping make Birmingham a great place to be.
Our first Birmingbelle of the Week of Tiffeny Curier, a proud Birmingham native. Tiffeny is the founder of BPositive Magazine, an online publication that seeks to highlight the positive things going on in Birmingham and surrounding areas. She's also using her local connections and contacts to raise money for survivors of the devastating storms of April 27. Read on to learn more about Tiffeny.

Converting VBScript's CDbl Function
Definition: Returns an expression that has been converted to a Variant of subtype Double.
The double data type "contains a double-precision, floating-point number in the range -1.79769313486232E308 to -4.94065645841247E-324 for negative values; 4.94065645841247E-324 to 1.79769313486232E308 for positive values."
If it turns out you need a double-precision, floating-point number like that you can use Windows PowerShell to convert a variable to the double data type. The following two commands assign a string value to the variable $a, then convert $a to the double data type:
$a = "11.45"
$a = [double] $a
If you run these two commands and then use the GetType() method against $a you should get back the following information:

The competition intensified as the three remaining finalists Jessica Sanchez, Philip Philips, and Joshua Ledet hit the stage for a triple face-off on last night's American Idol. The contestants had to perform one song of their choice, and one randomly selected by the judges, J.Lo, Randy Jackson, and Steve Tyler, and vocal coach, Jimmy Lovine. Sanchez decided to cover three legendary tracks from Mariah Carey, Michael Jackson, and Aerosmith.
Sanchez also visited her hometown of Chula Vista, California. The high school student was hooked up with a helicopter ride home. (Jealous!) She was also welcomed home with a parade. (Jealous, again!) Sanchez then performed for troops and sang her classic "Dance With My Father", where she was joined on stage by her dad.
When it came to hitting the American Idol stage, the teen mastered her toughest performance yet by covering Carey's hit melancholic ballad, "My All." Her range and control were pretty much flawless. After her performance, Tyler predicted, "I think, in a way, you will be the last one standing." Sanchez, who was wearing a purple prom-worthy ball gown, covered her mouth in amazement.
The 16-year-old also sang Jackson's "I'll Be There," and J.Lo was more than impressed. "Perfect tone in your voice. You almost sounded like Michael coming out of the back there," she said. But the final cover of the night that really impressed the judges was Sanchez's performance of "I Don't Want to Miss a Thing" by Aerosmith. Tyler was amazed by her cover and said, "You just took a great song and made it better." We couldn't have agreed more!
Watch Jessica Sanchez's Aerosmith performance below and let us know what you think! Was it enough to make her the next Idol?

Of course, sometimes new sponsors are required for a variety of reasons. Sponsees(?) should indicate in the RFS that they are looking for a new sponsor to replace an earlier one if that is the case.

Jets Vs. Ravens: Sanchez Looks to Shine on MNF in BaltimoreAugust 24, 2009
On the night head coach Rex Ryan returns to the place he called home for the last decade, rookie quarterback Mark Sanchez looks to win out the starting job versus one of the NFL's best defenses.
Sanchez, who featured in one series in his NFL debut coming off the bench for Kellen Clemens, looks to take advantage of the aura around the Monday Night Football lights.
In his first appearance in a Jets uniform, Sanchez went 3-for-4, including a 48-yard bomb to David Clowney on his initial throw.
The $50 million man showed signs of promise in his limited play, which was enough to give him the nod against the Baltimore Ravens.
Ryan has stated that based on the performance of both Sanchez and Clemens tonight, he may decide who the team's opening day starter will be.
Clearly, Ryan sees this start for both QB's as a huge stepping stone that will show each one handles the defense that Ryan helped build from 1999-2009, when he was the Ravens' defensive coordinator and line coach.
He won't be alone in the homecoming, as linebacker Bart Scott, safety Jim Leonhard, and tackle Marques Douglas all return to face their old pals.
Ryan has to be thinking revenge against a team that passed him up when Brian Billick was fired in 2007.
Although he won't admit it, a win in Baltimore, despite being a meaningless preseason game, could do wonders for the already big-mouthed Ryan.
A successful showing by Sanchez can end all the speculation about whether he would beat out the veteran Clemens, despite being the highest paid Jet in team history.
The only problem is that Clemens will have a shot to show up his 22-year-old counterpart, before making way for Erik Ainge in the second half.
The Jets will have Nick Mangold, who missed the first preseason game against St. Louis, in the mix, while players like Alan Feneca, Darrelle Revis, Kris Jenkins, and Damien Woody are all nursing injuries.
Tonight's game will feature similar defenses, which could make the QB battle that much more exciting to watch.
As RB Leon Washington says, "It's the Ravens against the Ravens."

Ask a Chrysler Question, Get an Answer ASAP!
Hopefully i can help..
Is this a Manual or Automatic gearbox?
has this been sudden fault or one thats been progressively worse?
Can it be selected with or without the engine running if a manual box?
any other gears effected or going the same way?
Hi. This is a manual box. Bought the car on Saturday. Progressively got worse. However, the wife said she could engage reverse without the clutch today (engine running, foot on brake). I have some trouble myself, but with a firm whack with the clutch down I can get reverse after a couple of attempts. Cheers. Scott.
Hi.. there thanks for getting back..
If you where able to select reverse without the use of the clutch ie: just presed the brake etc..then its possibily likly you may have a clutch fault..you should really hear it crunch especially in reverse the minute you try to get it it like any other gear - just like if you miss the gear and such like..since the clutch is still engaged with the engine when running and hasnt cleared/disengaged enough to allow to you select the next gear if you see what i saying..of course there could well be an issue with the clutch hydraulic side in which you may have faulty slave cylinder maybe binding etc but you would expect that in all but most gears bar just reverse which i asume it just on.If you can get reverse much easier with the engine off and selects ok at the gearbox as appossed to the engine running then that can be a clear indiation of either a clutch fault or the hydraulic clutch relese side isnt able to clear the clutch properly.selector cables would also be one other area to check on too in that maybe one of the ends of the cable at the gearbox selector arm maybe worn out or under the gearstick in the car in which both ends of the selector cables are attached and thus causes to much play at that ends or one of the cables may have stretched or sticking but again you would expect that to effect not only inc reverse but maybe the other gears that cable out of the two controls..im not so sure on the oil as again you would expect that in all gears awsell as first maybe too and you would hear a definate grind.of course oil loss can be either one or two things either leaking out from seals on the box ie:- input shaft/driveshafts at the diff or the gearbox has been removed or one of the driveshafts and the gearbox never filled back up properly so maybe a little low on oil..so maybe looking back any recent work maybe worth doing..i do hope this helps

Windows head Steven Sinofsky leaves Microsoft
Steven Sinofsky, the head of Microsoft's Windows division, has left – with immediate effect – only three weeks after the launch of Windows 8
This Article Covers
Steven Sinofsky, the head of Microsoft's Windows division and the executive widely expected to be the next CEO, has left the company with immediate effect.
Microsoft Office 365 - The Ins and Outs
With some significant changes in recent years, including a switch to a subscription-based offering, Microsoft Office 365 is rapidly evolving. Check out how the software has evolved and what the future has in store for it.
By submitting your personal information, you agree that TechTarget and its partners may contact you regarding relevant content, products and special offers.

No official reason was given for Steven Sinofsky's departure from Microsoft after 23 years and less than three weeks after the official launch of Windows 8 and the first Microsoft-branded computer.
Neither Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer nor Sinofsky gave an explanation, although US reports cited an unnamed senior executive at the company as saying the decision was "mutual".
The changes in leadership were aimed at ensuring Microsoft continued to be a dominant player in the sector, Ballmer said in a statement.
Sinofsky did not announce any future plans, but said in a statement: "It is impossible to count the blessings I have received over my years at Microsoft. I am humbled by the professionalism and generosity of everyone I have had the good fortune to work with at this awesome company."
Microsoft said Julie Larson-Green would be promoted to lead all Windows software and hardware engineering.
Sinofksy's departure is the latest shock departure in the technology sector, coming a month after Apple announced the departure of Scott Forstall, head of its iOS software, and John Browett, head of retail.
Yahoo has undergone a leadership shakeup with the appointment of new COO Henrique de Castro in October and new CEO Marissa Mayer in July, its third in a year.
"The pace at which changes are happening in the industry is so intense that companies are struggling to keep up with it," Manoj Menon of consulting firm Frost & Sullivan told the BBC.
The changes in leadership, he said, are a reflection of the fact that business models are changing, that competition is coming from unexpected quarters and that economic challenges are getting tougher.

BOSTON -- Terrence Long reached over the right-center field wall into the Boston bullpen to rob Manny Ramirez of a three-run homer with two outs in the ninth inning to preserve the Oakland Athletics' 3-2 win over the Red Sox on Wednesday night.
Long's catch helped A's reliever Billy Koch escape a jam for the second straight inning. Koch walked Johnny Damon and Trot Nixon with one out in the ninth before striking out Nomar Garciaparra. Ramirez, who hit his 19th homer of the year in the fourth, then sent a drive to center.
Yankees 6, Royals 2
NEW YORK -- Roger Clemens came off the disabled list to throw seven sharp innings, getting home run support from Jorge Posada and Derek Jeter as New York beat Kansas City.
Driving off the mound with strength and purpose, the Rocket (9-3) showed no ill effects of the injured right groin that had kept him out since July 13. He struck out eight in his 289th victory, passing Tommy John for sole possession of 21st place on the career list.
Mariners 5, Blue Jays 4
TORONTO -- Chris Woodward hit three home runs for Toronto, but Dan Wilson homered in the 10th inning off Luke Prokopec (2-9) to lift Seattle to the win.
In a game featuring seven homers, Woodward had the biggest night of all. Woodward, who started the day with eight home runs in 148 at-bats this season, had the first multihomer game of his career.
Indians 6, Devil Rays 2
CLEVELAND -- C.C. Sabathia got his elusive seventh win and Karim Garcia hit a two-run homer for Cleveland.
Sabathia (7-9) won for the first time since June 28 -- a span of seven starts -- by limiting the Devil Rays to two runs and five hits in seven innings.
Orioles 6, Twins 4
BALTIMORE -- Gary Matthews Jr. had three hits and two RBIs, and Scott Erickson (5-10) overcame his own shaky fielding to earn his second win since April 28 as Baltimore defeated Minnesota.
Melvin Mora had two hits and drove in two runs for the Orioles, who built an early 5-0 lead against Rick Reed (9-6) and held on.
Rangers 7, Tigers 2
DETROIT -- Kevin Mench hit a tiebreaking RBI single and Alex Rodriguez added a two-run double in Texas' five-run 11th inning.
Carl Everett also had an RBI single and Rafael Palmeiro hit a sacrifice fly.
White Sox 7, Angels 6
CHICAGO -- Royce Clayton hit a game-winning RBI single with one out in the ninth inning to lead Chicago past Anaheim.
Frank Thomas hit a two-run homer in the sixth and Magglio Ordonez added a two-run shot in the seventh as the White Sox rallied from a 6-2 deficit.
The White Sox then loaded the bases with one out in the ninth. Clayton laced a single to right over a drawn-in infield off Brendan Donnelly (0-1) to win it.
Paul Konerko went 4-for-4 with a solo homer for the White Sox. Antonio Osuna (6-2) got one out for the win.

is there any way that i can use glBlendFuncSeparate with CCSprite? I know i can set the blending with CCSprite::setBlendFunc(ccBlendFunc), but that maps to glBlendFunc, not glBlendFuncSeparate.
By now i've just created a CCSprite subclass with the draw method reimplemented (changing the glBlendFunc with glBlendFuncSeparate).
Is ccBlendFunc part of cocos2d? Is there any chance that we can extend it to include the other 2 params that glBlendFuncSeparate uses?

In a newspaper over Christmas there was an article re a proposed new design of a dartboard .
The article states that the present design is attributed to Thomas Buckle a 19th Century iron worker from Dewsbury.
I was born in Dewsbury and have lived in the area for 84 years and had never heard this. Did you know about it?

EDITOR'S NOTE: According to the article darts historian Patrick Chaplin traced the numbering that we are familiar with on today's dartboards to Thomas Buckle. His online history of darts states: "1913 - Dewsbury wire-worker Thomas Buckle takes a London Fives Board, increases the number of segments to twenty, thereby creating the numbering sequence we know today and inventing the Yorkshire Board."
If you have any information about the Dewsbury darts connection please write or email Letterbox at the addresses above.

Paula Lopez Missing, Found Safe at Home After Massive Search
Paula Lopez caused a huge scare for family and friends when she was reported missing. Thankfully the TV anchorwoman for ABC was found safe at her home, though the mystery of why she was reported missing still remains.
"At around 5:30 p.m. tonight, her family members called Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Public Safety Dispatch to report that she is home and safe. When deputies responded to her residence, they confirmed she was there and no longer missing," the Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Office wrote in a prepared statement distributed to the media.
Lopez's parents had reported her missing at around 10:00 a.m. after speaking with her at 9:30 that same morning. Police immediately began a search of the area around her home and used all available resources to help, including K-9 units and a helicopter.
"No foul play is suspected but her family is concerned about her welfare. We are not commenting on the reasons surrounding why Ms. Lopez went missing due to the fact that it is a private family matter," the Sheriff's Department said.
Lopez is an anchor for ABC affiliate KEYT-TV and has anchored the nightly news for six years now. Her colleagues issued a statement upon learning that she had been reported missing and said their "thoughts and prayers are extended to Paula as well as her family and those searching to find her."
"We have been in touch with her family and know they, as well as local authorities, are doing everything possible to find her safe and sound. We hope for her safe and speedy return," KEYT General Manager Mark Danielson told The Los Angeles Times.
She is married to Superior Court Judge Frank Ochoa and has three children. It's unknown whether a domestic dispute led to her parents filing the missing persons report or exactly what happened. For now, though, her friends and family are simply glad that she is safe at home.

Gaspť has some of the best salmon fishing that Canada has to offer. Within 30 km we have three salmon rivers that rival the best in the world. The names of the rivers are the York River, the Dartmouth River, and the St-Jean River.
Public fishing is allowed on all three rivers. However, to fish on these rivers you need a salmon fishing permit and a daily pass. The permit is an annual license that allows the fisherman to catch 7 salmon or grilse for the year. It costs about $40 for a Quebec resident and $110 for a non-resident. Note however that the St-Jean river is catch and release only for salmon this year. You can keep any grilse that you catch.
The daily pass allows you to fish on a certain section of the river for one day. Our rivers have been divided into zones, each containing several good pools. Daily passes are bought for a particular zone, thereby giving the angler the right to fish that zone for one day. The cost of the passes vary from $30 to $100 depending on the quality of the fishing pools in the zone. Most zones are restricted, meaning that the number of fisherman allowed on those zones is limited.
Lotteries decide who gets to fish the restricted zones. Half the rods are decided in a winter lottery and the other half are drawn daily, for fishing 48 hours after the draw. You enter the daily lottery by completing cards on which you list the zones you want to fish, in order of preference. The cost last year was $2 per card. All three rivers have one unlimited zone however, which has no restrictions on the number of anglers per day. It is also the cheapest zone to fish.
Fishing our rivers is very easy. All the zones and pools are clearly marked and the roads are good. The York River is entirely accessed by a paved highway. The St-Jean and the Dartmouth are accessed on a gravel road, but you can drive on them with a car if you are careful.
Contact the Z.E.C. in Gaspť at (418) 368-2324 or email them at email@example.com for more information on fishing our great rivers. They can also suggest a good salmon fishing guide if you need one. Good luck fishing this summer.

AbstractAbrasive resistant coatings have been widely used to reduce or eliminate wear, extending the lifetime of products. Abrasive resistant coatings can also be used in certain environments unsuitable for lubrications. Moreover, abrasive resistant coatings have been employed to strengthen mechanical properties, such as hardness and toughness. Given recently rapid development in abrasive resistant coatings, this paper provides a review of major types of abrasive coatings, their wearing mechanisms, preparation methods, and properties.

By 2050, Chinese and global agriculture are expected to enter a new era of development. Global population increase and economic development, particularly in developing countries, will lead to greater human demand for food and fiber. The demand for multifunctional agriculture will also increase as the worsening global energy crisis induces the rise of the biomass energy industry. Demand growth, diversification and market expansion provide unlimited reverie for the future development of agriculture.

Rapid economic growth is the only sustainable foundation for the elimination of poverty. However, only strategies that include agricultural development can establish strong links between overall growth and reduction in poverty. Most strategies that seek rapid industrialization at the expense of agriculture, even if the intent is to alleviate poverty, actually slow down economic growth and increase levels of poverty. In a country with many impoverished people, policymaker must address both growth and poverty through an.......

It has become a habit that following completion of a research programme, a review or assessment is performed. Partly to justify the money and efforts that went into the programme and partly to identify novel directions for new programmes. Following this tradition, the sponsor of the International Cooperation research programme (DLO-IC), the Dutch Ministry of Agriculture, Nature and Food Quality (LNV), asked a small group of scientists to draw lessons from its recently completed North- South programme.

Over the last twenty years the proportion of development cooperation resources earmarked for agricultural development has dwindled to between 6 and 7 per cent of total bi- and multilateral Official Development Assistance. This is despite the fact that 80 per cent of the world's poor live in rural agricultural areas, and that the poor are disproportionately affected when political, military and natural events lead to regional or global food shortages.

Food availability, access, stability and utilization are all part of the multi-dimensional nature of food security. The "availability" aspect, discussed here, refers to the availability of sufficient quantities of food of appropriate quality, supplied through domestic production or inputs. Productivity is usually considered the ultimate benchmark when comparing the performance of agricultural systems.

Access to safe drinking water and sanitation is a basic necessity. However, such access is highly variable around the world and in particular in Africa, Asia and South America. Much progress still remains to be made in infrastructure improvements and poverty reduction.

Compounding the issue of water availability is contamination of water supplies and the lack of wastewater treatment facilities.

NFL Draft 2013: Should the Cowboys Draft NC State Quarterback Mike Glennon?January 27, 2013
ESPNDallas.com columnist Calvin Watkins mentioned that the Dallas Cowboys should consider drafting altitudinous quarterback Mike Glennon out of North Carolina State.
Glennon is 6'7," 225 pounds with a strong arm ready for NFL defenses. He can be inconsistent, and will take some time to develop, but his talent and potential is good enough for some quarterback-starved NFL teams to consider drafting him.
But should the Cowboys?
Jones isn't ready to cede that Romo isn't the right quarterback for the Cowboys. In speaking on the NFL Network, he gave full support to his starting quarterback (h/t Jon Machota, The Dallas Morning News):
He's naturally a glass half-full guy, so he's fired up about what we can do. I'll tell you this, I really would hate to be sitting here talking about getting better, and starting fresh at quarterback and not having Romo. He's a big part of what we got to go with…
There is our answer about replacing Romo in the present, so where do we stand with the future?
Mike Glennon's Ability
I'm not sold on Glennon's NFL readiness. He has the right size to be a successful NFL quarterback, but watching his pocket presence, footwork and decision making when the Wolfpack played rival Florida State, he has a ways to go before he can attack an NFL defense with strength and confidence.
He brought his team back from a 16-point deficit against FSU, but as NC State made their slow march toward victory with a steam-powered comeback, he almost gave the game away with a few bad throws.
In the game's final quarter, the Wolfpack were down by just six points with 27 seconds remaining.
Glennon is in the shotgun on FSU's 3-yard line.
As the ball is snapped and Glennon takes it, he is flushed from the pocket to his right. Once on the run, he thinks that he sees receiver Quintin Payton open in the back left corner of the end zone.
Because he is in college, he can get away with this throw, but Glennon decides to chuck the ball across his body to the back of the end zone toward Payton where at least two Florida State defenders are waiting.
As Payton tries to come back and make a play on the ball, FSU cornerbacks Xavier Rhodes and Tyler Hunter both tip the ball before an air-twisting Payton gets his finger tips on it.
Luckily for Glennon, the ball fell harmlessly to the ground, and NC State lived to fight another down.
Once he actually enters the NFL, he will know not to make a throw of that nature; otherwise he and his team will be punished for it because it will become a turnover.
I also saw Glennon back up at least 10 yards deep into his own backfield a few times. He did step into the pocket to avoid the rush, but once his mind started to run about how much time he had before the posse came to get him, he would just back up and eventually throw the ball away.
To attack Florida State's defense, Glennon used checkdowns, underneath routes, screens and getting his running backs out in the flats to win. I'm sure this was part of the team's game plan due to something that was revealed on game film, but I did not see many deep throws from him.
For the night, Glennon threw 55 passes for 259 yards. That's not even a five-yard-per-pass average, which tells me how the team went after the 'Noles defensive backfield.
Yet with the steady picking on FSU's secondary, Glennon was never a balanced force against them. He completed a lot of passes underneath, but he left plenty of plays on the field because he misread a defense or made a bad throw.
The Wolfpack ended the game with 18 third-down attempts and five conversions. Glennon will have to improve his ability to keep drives alive and throwing beyond the first-down marker when it is 3rd-and-long.
Overall, I like his potential. He has been compared to the Atlanta Falcons Matt Ryan by Russ Lande of the National Football Post, which may not be so bad considering the Falcons just went to the NFC Championship Game.
In regard to Ryan, they both panic a little when pressured and can make bad decisions.
Once Glennon is drafted, he'll have to work on reacting to stress up the middle, his decision making when pressured and flushed, taking the sack and living another down and using his arm as a weapon.
He has a cannon on his right shoulder, so he will use his arm strength to try to bail himself out of a bad situation.
That will have to stop.
Cowboys Fit
Do the Cowboys want another quarterback with questionable decision-making skills in the future? Better yet, is Dallas prepared to bring an even hotter spotlight over Romo if they choose to pick Glennon?
While they decide, Glennon is busy trying to prove that he is a first-round pick. If he does creep into the first round or the high second, he immediately comes off of the board for the Cowboys.
Even if Jerry Jones really likes Romo and wants him to stay, the team will be forced to look at replacements sometime soon. Romo is 32 years old and has 10 years of NFL wear on his body.

RECAP: Kevin Durant scored a game-high 30 points and Russell Westbrook added 25 to spark Oklahoma City to a victory Wednesday night at Target Center. The Wolves (5-17) got 26 points from Michael Beasley and another superb performance from Kevin Love: 22 points and 21 rebounds. Filling in for center Darko Milicic (bruised right quadricep), backup Nikola Pekovic had a career-high 15 points in 25 minutes.
MEANING: The Wolves have not been able to hold onto big leads against Oklahoma City in two games this season. On Nov. 22 at Oklahoma City, the Wolves blew an 18-point lead in the third quarter. They led by 19 in the first half and by 11 late in the third quarter before the Thunder rallied.
ETC.: Love extended his streak to eight consecutive games with at least 15 rebounds. …The Wolves' 40 points in the first quarter was a season high.
— Ray Richardson
vs. Pistons, 7 p.m. Friday, KFAN-AM 1130

You are still talking backwardsYou put the partition (/dev/sdXY) on /var not the other way round. You DON'T put /var on /dev/sdXY
If you imagine there is a conceptual drawing of the tree starting at / and including all the major mount points - with the non standard mount points being creatable manually, and somewhere below a list of unallocated partitions.
Then you could drag any partition (from the unallocated list or from another mount point) and drop it on mount point you wanted. If that mount point already had a partition at that point it would warn you, and if you said continue would move the old partition back into the unallocated list. If you said don't continue it would leave the old one where it was and the new one would return from whence it came.

Just saw a story on the "Today" show this morning about how sales of Barbie dolls have dropped in recent years. So Mattel, the company that makes the wasp-waisted role model for anorexia is trying to goose sales with new doll models, such as a dancing Barbie and a Barbie with changeable facial expressions.
Anyway, here's an online video game (click "Feed the Model") that lets you fatten up a Barbie-thin model before she goes to market… er, walks the catwalk.
Tip o' the tam to Veronica F. for the heads up.

(Twentieth-Century Literary Criticism)
Rachilde 1860-1953
(Born Marguerite Eymery) French novelist, short story writer, dramatist, biographer, autobiographer, and critic.
Rachilde is considered an important figure in the fin-de-siècle French Decadent movement. Characterized in public life by her male dress, and habit of calling herself a "man of letters," Rachilde tittilated readers with frequent depictions of unconventional sexuality, including gender inversion, androgyny, and homoeroticism. Her most well-known novel, Monsieur Vénus (1884), is a meditation on the nature of sexual desire from the female perspective.
Biographical Information
Rachilde was born near Périgueux in southwestern France. Her mother was the daughter of a successful publisher, while her father was the illegitimate son of an aristocrat and a colonel in the French army. As a child Rachilde's relationship with her mother was strained, and she often felt the harsh disappointment of her father, who made it clear that he would have rather had a son. Informally educated in her parent's home, she was allowed to peruse the works of her grandfather's library, where she discovered the works of the Marquis de Sade. In her youth she turned to writing as a form of imaginative escapism, producing her first novel at the age of sixteen. She moved to Paris in 1878 to begin her career as a writer. Once there she adopted the name Rachilde and applied for permission from the French authorities to dress as a man in public. She published her first novel Madame de sans-Dieu that same year. In 1884 she won immediate notoriety with the publication of her fifth book Monsieur Vénus. The work, because of its frank and iconoclastic depiction of sexuality, was almost immediately banned in neighboring Belgium under charges of pornography, quickly earning her the appellation "Mademoiselle Baudelaire." By the late 1890s, Rachilde's weekly salons in Paris had become well known, and in 1889 she married Alfred Vallette. The following year, the couple began publication of Mercure de France, a journal devoted to promoting the literary works of the Symbolists and Decadents. Rachilde contributed short stories to the periodical (later collected and published separately under the title Le démon de l'absurde in 1894), and wrote regular reviews for it until 1914. After World War I she continued to produce novels as well as a handful of nonfiction works, most notably her biography Alfred Jarry; ou, le Surmâle de lettres (1928). By this time, however, she was experiencing somewhat failing health and had taken to collaborating with other authors on many of her novels. In 1935 her husband died, leaving her with little money. She continued to write well into her eighties, producing her final work, the autobiographical Quand j'étais jeune, in 1947. She died at the age of 93 in 1953.
Major Works
The vast majority of Rachilde's writings were novels in the Decadent style. Among her early novels, Monsieur Vénus is typical in its emphasis on passion and sexuality from a female point of view. In this work Rachilde inverts the gender roles of master and mistress by allowing its heroine, Raoule de Vénérande, to take a working-class man as her lover. After his violent death in a duel, however, she withdraws from society and succumbs to a pathological depression. Several works that followed dramatized similar themes. La Marquise de Sade (1887) is a psychological study of Mary Barbe and her burgeoning sadism. Androgyny and gender ambiguity are the motifs of Madame Adonis (1888), in which the recently married Louise Bartau falls in love with a enigmatic woman whom she believes to be a man. The heroine of Le Jongleuse (1900) forsakes all men, choosing instead a Greek vase as the object of her amorous desires. The varied manifestations of sexual deviance are evident in a host of Rachilde's later novels, including studies of incest L(es hors nature, 1897), erotic obsession (L'heure sexuelle, 1898), and pedophilia (La souris japonaise, 1921). In her dramatic works Rachilde often employed symbolism to explore deeply hidden emotions or to develop a social critique. In Madame la Mort, first performed in 1891, a young man's thoughts of suicide are personified as Madame Death, who vies with his living girlfriend for his love. Le vendeur de soleil, originally staged in 1894, criticizes the inability of the bourgeoisie to appreciate natural beauty, as its protagonist attempts to sell indifferent passers-by a glimpse at the setting sun. Of her nonfictional works, Rachilde's essay Pourquoi je ne suis pas fé ministe (1928), is among the most telling. Semi-autobiographical in format, it describes her thoughts on relations between the sexes and explains the sources of her often misogynistic writings.
Critical Reception
Rachilde achieved considerable celebrity in her lifetime, in large part due to the publication of Monsieur Vénus and the charges of immorality it elicited. Her fame grew with the production of several plays in the 1890s and her many contributions to the Mercure de France into the early twentieth century. After the First World War, how however, her popularity declined as her Decadent novels—no longer in vogue—began to take on a bleaker and more cynical tone, and her strong female protagonists were replaced by mysterious and brooding male figures. Rachilde is little known outside of France and Belgium; only a few of her novels, including Monsieur Vénus and Le jongleuse (The Juggler), have been translated into English. Nevertheless, Rachilde, although typically appreciated for the role she played in the French Decadent movement, has most recently attracted the attention of critics for her nascent Modernism, as well as for her exploration of sexual politics and changing gender roles.
