Could this be spear phishing for passwords, the login was a little rough through the link. I am resetting my password, and suggest everyone look for any non-authorized usage of their Qualys scanning accounts, this may be the objective, to gain access to other accounts through a spear phishing campaign looking for common passwords using a cross site script or a fake login.
Thank you for reporting this. I (the Qualys Community administrator) also received this spam this morning, and I immediately deleted the account that sent it (which also deleted the message).
Bob, you got the error because I deleted the user and the spam message. So if you (or anyone else) click the notification, you will get this error message because the spam message is no longer in the system.
Arnold, I do not believe this is a spearphishing attack. Here's what I believe happened. An actual person (not an automated system) created a Qualys Community account in the exact same way as every Qualys Community member has done. This person then sent a private message to a large number of other accounts on the system, again using the same mechanism a legitimate member would use. Well, I supposed if someone did reply to the message and sent their real email address, that could put them at risk, but presumably anyone but the most naive user would not reply to the email.
The best solution I can think of is to limit the number of addresses in a private message to some low number, say 5, and then it become more difficult for spammers to send this type of spam. I have requested this feature (unfortunately it is currently possible to limit the number of recipients).
Again, thank you for reporting this. And I apologize for any disruption or inconvenience this has caused.
Regards, Robert

Yes, unfortunately I think a lot of people received it. Again, I apologize for the inconvenience, and I will escalate efforts to prevent this from happening again.

I received this message too but the account had been removed before I could view it.
Perhaps there could be some sort of approval process for accounts or messages that request large distribution targets?
Hello All,
I'm considering the following changes: limit the number of recipients on the distribution list to something low like 5, and limit the number of private messages that can be sent from new accounts (less than 1 week old, for example).
The private message spam I have seen always comes from new accounts, and legitimate use of PMs generally doesn't include large distribution lists. So these two restrictions should impact the ability of spammers to send PM spam without inconveniencing community members.
Other options considered included a captcha, but this inconveniences all community members and would not prevent spam sent by an actual person. A 'mark as spam' button won't prevent spam, and community members will still get the email notification, even if the link to the spam is disabled.
Please feel free to comment here on this topic. In the meantime, we're starting work on the two above limits, and I hope to have them deployed by the end of June.
Thanks, Robert

Hope College's approach to preparing future scientists through involvement in undergraduate research is highlighted in a new book that advocates extending such efforts nationwide.
Hope College's approach to preparing future scientists through involvement in undergraduate research is highlighted in a new book that advocates extending such efforts nationwide.
A team of Hope faculty contribute a chapter to the book "Broadening Participation in Undergraduate Research: Fostering Excellence and Enhancing Impact," published recently by the Council on Undergraduate Research (CUR). The Hope-authored chapter, "Enriching a Culture of Research: Expanding Opportunities to a Broader Community," provides an overview of programs at Hope designed to broaden the college's decades-long practice of involving students in undergraduate research as a teaching tool.
"Hope has a well-documented record of success in training students for careers in science by giving them the opportunity to do science, through collaborative research with faculty mentors," said Dr. Moses Lee, who is dean for the natural and applied sciences and a professor of chemistry at Hope.
"Nationally, we have a tremendous need to produce more scientists, and we also know that nationally there are a variety of groups that are underrepresented in the science disciplines," he said. "In recent years we here at Hope have developed a variety of initiatives geared toward reaching out to new groups of students. I'm glad that we can be of help by sharing our story with others."
The book was co-edited by Dr. Mary Boyd, who is dean of arts and sciences at the University of San Diego, and Dr. Jodi L. Wesemann, who is assistant director for higher education with the American Chemical Society. CUR outlined the publication's goals during a panel presentation at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday, June 3.
"Broadening participation in undergraduate research is about maximizing potential - the potential of students, research, and institutions - and expanding our understanding of the world," Boyd said. "High-quality programs across the country are enhancing the lives of students, the direction of their scholarship and its impact on their disciplines and institutions."
According to "Broadening Participation in Undergraduate Research," the nation faces several imperatives: the need for students in all disciplines to fulfill their potential; the need for more students to study and pursue careers in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM); and the need for more research-based solutions to the serious scientific, economic and social problems facing the nation.
"Undergraduate research is a proven and powerful way to achieve these goals," Boyd said. "High-quality research and scholarship activities enhance educational outcomes in all areas of study, encourage young people to pursue STEM-related disciplines and contribute to the body of knowledge needed to tackle serious problems."
"Another equally important imperative is increasing opportunities for students who haven't traditionally been involved in research," she said. "The nation won't solve our most difficult challenges unless we unleash the full potential of all our best and brightest students."
In addition to Lee, the authors of the Hope chapter are Dr. Karen Nordell Pearson, visiting associate professor of chemistry and director of the Midstates Consortium for Math and Science; Dr. Kenneth L. Brown, associate professor of chemistry; Dr. Herbert L. Dershem, professor of computer science; Dr. Kathy Winnett-Murray, professor of biology; and Dr. Christopher C. Barney, who is the T. Elliott Weier Professor of Biology.
Each year, approximately 85 percent of the Hope students majoring in the natural and applied sciences work side-by-side with a faculty member on an original research project. The total includes approximately 160 students engaged in such work full-time for eight to 10 weeks each summer. It is one of the largest STEM summer research programs among all predominantly undergraduate institutions in the nation.
The programs outlined in the college's chapter in "Broadening Participation in Undergraduate Research" focus on providing research experiences to high school students, students at two-year colleges, and students who are planning to become elementary- and secondary-level teachers.
Through the "HHMI Science Education Scholars Program," established in 2004 through support from the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Hope provides research experiences for students interested in teaching at the K-12 level. The program seeks to provide the future teachers with experience that they can use to help excite their own students about careers in the sciences.
Through "Project REACH" (Research Experience Across Cultures at Hope), created in 2005, area high school students and teachers engage in research for six weeks during the summer with Hope's science, engineering and mathematics faculty. The goal is to provide meaningful learning experiences to the students as they consider their interest in pursuing careers in one of the STEM fields in college, and to involve the teachers in research activity that they can in turn apply to their own classroom teaching.
The remaining two initiatives focus on students at two-year institutions. Lee noted that a large percentage of the students currently pursuing higher education in the U.S. are attending two-year colleges, and that a large percentage of those students are members of ethnic groups traditionally underrepresented in the sciences.
Through involvement in the "STEM-ENGINES Undergraduate Research Collaborative," established in 2006, Hope is part of a group of colleges and universities working together to increase the number of Chicago-area students who pursue careers in science. Led by the City Colleges of Chicago, the consortium links several two-year colleges in the Chicago area with Hope and other schools whose research programs in the sciences actively involve undergraduate students. The students participate in research at Hope or the other participating four-year institutions in the summer, with the possibility of transferring to the four-year school after completing their two-year program.
Through the "Scholarships in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics" (S-STEM) program, Hope is recruiting students who have completed work at a variety of community colleges in Michigan. Through the program, the students have the opportunity to continue their education at Hope, including through a full-time collaborative research experience with a faculty member during the summer before beginning classes at the college.
The Council on Undergraduate Research supports faculty development for high-quality undergraduate student-faculty collaborative research and scholarship. Nearly 600 institutions and more than 3,000 individuals belong to CUR. CUR believes that the best way to capture student interest and create enthusiasm for a discipline is through research in close collaboration with faculty members.
Additional information about "Broadening Participation in Undergraduate Research" is available on CUR's Web site at http://www.cur.org/publications.html.

Dan Holman is set to feature in Colchester United's under-21 clash at Crystal Palace this afternoon.
The U's striker is yet to start for his new club in a competitive fixture following his summer arrival from Braintree Town.
Holman appeared as a second-half substitute in Colchester's 1-0 defeat at the hands of Doncaster Rovers, last weekend.
However, U's boss Joe Dunne feels he needs more game time and Holman is set to play against Palace in the Professional Development League Two clash at Tooting and Mitcham FC (kick-off 2pm).
Drey Wright and Josh Thompson are also set to feature in the game, following their recent injuries.
Dunne said: "They're going to need a couple more games and certainly one or two more training sessions.
"Sanchez played for 90 minutes (at Sheffield United) and I'm pleased that he went that long.
"It shows his attitude and that he wants to get back into this team, which is great."
Colchester are looking for their first win in the division since returning to the league after their academy successfully secured Category Two status.
They drew 0-0 with Sheffield United in the opening game in the league, last Wednesday.
Meanwhile, Dunne has stressed that it is important that they strike the right balance with the teams their field in the under-21 academy league.
The U's predominantly want to use the division to help their youngsters flourish in a competitive environment.
But Dunne also wants to use the league as an opportunity to field any senior players who need match fitness, such as Holman and Sanchez Watt.
Dunne added: "I generally like the under-21s to be about the under-21s.
"I think we should let as many young players learn from their mistakes.
"But we may have to use one or two of these games to bring back one or two of our players, because we're so stretched at the moment that we're not in a position to organise a reserve game.
"We have to be careful with what we do."

Typefaces designed for extended reading need to be narrow enough to work in congested environments, yet energetic enough to encourage extended reading. Here's how Whitney does it.
Maximal Lowercase
A font that's expected to perform in small sizes naturally does well with a large lowercase, which helps it look bigger than it really is. Whitney's ascenders and descenders are compact enough to allow for tight leading, but long enough to create shapes that help define the proportions of the lowercase.
Some of the world's most common sans serifs have stroke endings that point inward, a technique that makes for handsome letters but ugly words. Whitney's stroke endings point outward toward their neighbors, a "social" attitude which helps bind letters into more coherent wordshapes, and guides the eye along the line. These horizontal gestures also allow Whitney to comfortably accommodate more weight than many sans serifs, since even its heaviest strokes are never in danger of turning inwards.
Compact Widths
Because Whitney's extroverted forms invite more white space into each letter, they make it possible for the letters themselves to become narrower — without ever feeling narrow. Whitney's compact proportions are vital in tight columns, especially when the family's heavier weights are used.

Hello Phillip, I found out about the eclipse on the MAKE blog about an hour before it started. – and I took your suggestion about taking photos.
I made a time lapse of the beginning. I put my Canon A95 on a tripod, and watched the time. I took a photo about every minute, and compiled them into an animated GIF in Photoshop. Unfortunately, flickr doesn't play the animated GIF correctly, and photobucket won't let me upload anything larger than 1Meg, so I'm hoping that you could host it for everyone to see.
Here's more info: I used a 1/10sec exposure with ISO 50, and f8.0. I could only zoom 3x with the A95 though. I cropped and layered the photos together in Photoshop and used the animation tool to align them. I left a 1sec first and last frames, and gave the rest a 0.1 sec delay. enjoy :)

Our whole family attended yesterday. It was absolutely spectacular. We had a fantastic time! Thanks for the memories!Samantha Hope
We love going to the zoo. (…) Most of the animals were out and the grandkids were thrilled. I'd never been to the Dinozoo before and I thought it was pretty cool especially with the movement and sounds. The design is great in that it's seperated and all goes back to the center.Stephen Eyton-Jones
A good place for family outing with zoo, water park and rides all at one place. All the attractions are conveniently placed very close to each other. Food court is good too and you can also bring in your lunch.Anand Bharadwaj Aryasomayajula
Our family absolutely enjoyed our day! There was so much to do! Park was very clean and staff was very friendly and helpful with any questions!!! We plan on going next year and making it a weekend trip so that we can enjoy the whole park!Crystal Wilson
Amazing place to take the family! Lots of animals to see, amazing water park and fun rides. Great packages available with hotels close by for out of town visitors. Highly recommend!Paul Winch

We had an excellent time! We have not been in over 10 years and are so glad we went! The park is clean. The food was well priced for a theme park. We loved the Dinozoo! We have terrible French speaking abilities but appreciated your courteous and friendly staff, we felt welcome!Bonnie Diane
It's the 3rd year in a row that my family and I visit this Zoo. Even though it was during the busiest day they had this year, we were able to visit everything and fully enjoy the experience. Don't forget to bring your bathing suit cause they have an amazing wave pool!Éric Trudel
First time visiting here on our annual summer week in Québec. We went for the 2 day family pass, and had an amazing time. The 2 days allowed us to take our time around the park, and gave plenty of time as well for cooling off at the Amazoo. We'll definitely come back!JR Bélanger
What a great time. Would definitely go again. The zoo care takers are amazing at what they do and so friendly. I would recommend if you have never gone it's a bucket list. Oh and don't forget to go and pet the sting rays.Jamie Krichtoff

SISD Assistant Superintendent Kathy Smartt looks at how Sweetwater schools are facing the upcoming budget crisis in Texas - Education is 44% of the state budget. With the projected deficits in the State of Texas current budget, school leaders across the state are busy brainstorming on how education can survive the inevitable cuts. Sweetwater ISD could suffer as much as a million dollar shortfall for at least the next two years.
Under the leadership of SISD Superintendent Mr. Terry Pittman, Sweetwater has been preparing for a couple of years by combining jobs and job responsibilities. To date, 14 professional and 5.5 paraprofessional positions have been absorbed through attrition. The fruits of these labors have enabled the district to provide increases in salaries to attract and retain highly qualified personnel.
Another recent proactive step was the decision to move the HOBBS alternative school setting next school year to a more economical set up. Students will be transported to the Wallace School in Colorado City. By joining this new co-op, a projected savings of over $130,000 will be gained annually.
Many districts are forced to make a choice to either reduce staff, cut pay or eliminate programs. SISD has chosen to be proactive and make changes that do not involve any of these avenues. Another factor in this budget situation includes the high probability that school districts will not be notified of final budget numbers until summer.
For academic benefits the idea that has been proposed, discussed and studied for many years is actually a part of the answer for the financial crunch the district is facing. That idea is the reconfiguration of the two elementary campuses. Changing Southeast Elementary and East Ridge Elementary to grade level campuses would create an estimate savings of $330,000 every year. Currently the two elementary campuses serve students from Kindergarten through third grade. This paradigm shift will establish Kindergarten and first grade at Southeast Elementary and second and third grade at East Ridge Elementary beginning the 2011-2012 school year.
Grade level campuses solve age old problems of students moving back and forth during the year and suffering academically. Class size adjustments are simplified and avoid the unbalanced numbers between campuses. This set up lends itself to a much better educational situation for each grade level with all being together and drawing off each other's strengths. It narrows the campus wide focus on the needs of that age child. Programs can be concentrated on the appropriate age campus instead of duplicated.
This change will mean that half of the K-3 teachers will have to move campuses and adjust to a new classroom and all K-3 teachers will have changes which include new staff members, new leaders, and some new surroundings. Although all drastic changes are uncomfortable at first, Sweetwater continues to make decisions that are better for students and expands their proactive measures.
The things that won't change will be the programs that students enjoy and need and the things that go on inside the classroom. In other words, the things that truly matter will remain. Sweetwater students will continue to be nurtured and challenged by dedicated adults every school day.
Although such changes are only half of the projected shortfalls, SISD feels confident in moving forward with proactive efforts. The district continues to look for ways to save money and will proceed absorbing positions through attrition. Instead of waiting for the final decisions from the legislative session, Sweetwater has already made moves and continues to study ways to not only survive but thrive through the reductions in state funds.

UD students get hands-on animal experience during lambing season
Students in the University of Delaware's Department of Animal and Food Sciences 417 Capstone Course spent the beginning of the spring semester on the farm in the early morning hours of the day or into the early evening on "lamb watch," keeping an eye out to see if any of the pregnant ewes in the UD flock were about to give birth. Under the guidance of Lesa Griffiths, professor in the Department of Animal and Food Sciences, and Larry Armstrong, farm manager, the students spent the month of March — which was peak time for lambing this year — watching over the 52 ewes, which produced 93 lambs. The figures were up from the 81 lambs from 42 ewes last year. The 30-member class was divided into groups with four or five students per group and an honors student liaison, as the class is also an Honors Program capstone course. Each student had to sign up for six lamb watches during the lambing season in addition to their regular lab meetings once a week. The earliest shift was from 6-7:30 a.m. and the latest was from 8-9:30 p.m. Each student had to write in a barn journal to provide an update on what they did and what they noticed for the next students scheduled to arrive at the farm, and Griffiths said that before spring break, there had been over 320 entries in the journal. Griffiths said that if a lamb was born on a group's watch, that group would take care of the lamb for the semester. "They are responsible for making the decision as to when it's appropriate to ear tag and dock their tails. They weigh and record birth weights, 10-day weights, 30-day weights, and they'll administer their vaccines," said Griffiths. She added that this real world, hands-on experience is critical to the development of the students. "They really learn because when it comes to animal care, there is a much greater responsibility in terms of making sure the task gets done and playing your role," said Griffiths. "You really have a responsibility and a level of accountability to the other people in your group and to the animals. I think the students learn a lot of people skills, communication skills and time management skills, as they have to relay information accurately and quickly." Armstrong noted, "After lambing, the students take an integral part in the challenges that arise from raising one of the world's oldest domestic animals. The labs have been structured, yet are organic and fun at the same time." He added that the students "have done an amazing job of learning management skills and protocols from Dr. Griffiths then helping me to apply their newly learned skills in very real world situations. They learn, teach each other and confidently perform tasks that will put them above and beyond others in their future careers." Casey Foreman, a senior in the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources, said that lamb watch was mostly to make sure everything was proceeding as normal with the ewes and to notify Armstrong or Griffiths if one was having problems delivering. "The ewes are usually able to give birth without any assistance. Once she has had the lamb, we can go in and clean off the lamb's nose and mouth to make sure that it is able to breathe. Then we leave it alone so that the ewe can clean it off and begin to take care of it," said Foreman. Foreman, who has witnessed three births this lambing season, said her favorite part about the class is working with the animals. "We get to interact with the lambs, weighing them to keep track of their growth, giving them ear tags, and docking their tails. We also have to move the ewes, with their lambs, to different parts of the barn as the lambs get older. From the maternity bay with the pregnant sheep to a jug, an individualized pen where the mom can bond with her baby, and then to a mixing pen where groups of ewes and their babies are brought together again." During one particularly difficult lambing session this year, they had to call the University of Pennsylvania's New Bolton Center for assistance, and it just so happened that the center sent a familiar face — Kaitlyn Lutz, a UD alumna who graduated in 2007 with a degree in animal science and pre-veterinary medicine and is a second-year resident at New Bolton. "To walk in and see her there was really nice," Griffiths said, "not only because she's an alum but because she's interested in small ruminants and it's not always easy to find a veterinarian with expertise in sheep." Lutz said that she currently trains veterinary students on all livestock species — sheep, goats and dairy and beef cows — and because UD is a client, she explained, "The involvement I have here is all on the veterinary side and we come down once a week to take care of any lambing issues and any sick animals. And if there are students here, they get to become involved." Lutz said it is great to come back to UD and see the facilities and interact with the people. "It's really nice to have that involvement and then to also know that when I come back, I can be so proud of what the University of Delaware has to offer," said Lutz. "All of the facilities are great, the people here are great, and it's nice to bring vet students here to teach them using such a great facility with good management and have that interaction now that I've learned more — and am still learning from the people here."

SCO Files Subpoenas To Summon Stallman and Torvalds
Nov 13, 2003 2:00 PM PT
Claims and counterclaims now have turned into dueling subpoenas, as IBM and SCO continue to spar over allegations that a Linux kernel promoted by Big Blue was copied from SCO's Unix System V source code.
Earlier this month, IBM issued subpoenas for SCO investors and analysts, including Bay Star Capital, Renaissance Ventures, Deutsche Bank and Yankee Group, in the court case that began in March when SCO claimed contract violations and sued IBM.
SCO spokesperson Mark Modersitzki told LinuxInsider that while the new subpoenas are not a direct response to IBM's subpoenas, SCO has filed its own subpoenas for Linux creator Linus Torvalds, Free Software Foundation president Richard Stallman, Transmeta and the Open Source Development Lab, both of which have employed Torvalds. In addition, the subpoenas include Novell, the original owner of the Unix source-code copyrights, and an executive at Linux set-top-box maker Digeo.
"We believe that all of the individuals that we subpoenaed have a recognized leadership role in the development of Linux," Modersitzki said. "Everybody knows they're a part of the Linux community, and certainly their testimony will be part of the case."
Coaxing Connections
IBM, which has hit SCO with counterclaims in the now US$3 billion suit, has accused SCO of dragging its feet when it comes to disclosing the source code at the heart of the debate.
"SCO has yet to show us any evidence that we have violated our agreements with them," the company has said. Legal observers have indicated IBM might be going outside of SCO to get at the evidence, while others think Big Blue could be trying to disclose hidden ties between SCO and its supporters, which might include Microsoft.
Both SCO and Linux foe Microsoft deny a relationship beyond software licensing, which (according to a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filing last week) involved two payments to SCO for at least $8 million.
Big Blue Bullying?
SCO officials reportedly have called IBM's subpoenas -- directed primarily at industry analysts and investors who have vocally supported SCO's suit -- a case of bullying and have called Big Blue out for legal gamesmanship.
Phil Albert, a software legal expert and partner with Townsend and Townsend and Crew in San Francisco, told LinuxInsider that for its part, SCO likely is working to add in as many factors as possible to maintain a degree of uncertainty about the dispute.
Albert said the subpoenas and other legal maneuverings on both sides simply indicate efforts to clarify what is or is not in dispute early on in the process. While he referred to SCO's use of subpoenas as an integral part of the company's case, Modersitzki questioned IBM's actions.
"IBM said they were looking at the technical issues in the case, and their subpoenas don't reflect it," he said.
In Earlier News
Last month, SGI responded to SCO's threat to pull SGI's license by removing portions of the code in question and counterclaiming that SCO's position is "absurd." SGI's vice president of software, Rich Altmaier, wrote in the "Letter to the Linux Community" that his company has carried out a "rigorous internal process to ensure that all software contributed by SGI represents code we are legally entitled to release as open source."
Still, SGI did remove three "code fragments" -- 200 lines out of the total 1 million lines of SCO's alleged contributions to Linux -- and indicated it is on a mission to find and remove all code that "may arguably be related to Unix code," Altmaier's letter said.
Analysts said that while SCO might view removal of any code as a validation of its intellectual-property claims, the Lindon, Utah-based company still will have to prove that its Unix System V source code was the source of any contributions to Linux. Meanwhile, said analysts, the company is making more enemies along the way.
"If they continue doing things like this until the lawsuit goes to court in 2005, they will have everybody not liking them," Aberdeen Group research director Bill Claybrook told LinuxInsider. "There won't be anyone left that doesn't hate them."
SCO's Bad Blood
Yankee Group senior analyst Laura DiDio told LinuxInsider that SCO's fate lies in its courtroom success. The company is suing IBM and is defending itself against countersuits by Big Blue and Linux distributor Red Hat.
"In order for SCO to thrive, they've got to sell a product," she said, referring to SCO's current focus on its IP. "Certain organizations may not want to do business with them because they caused a conundrum here that the industry probably didn't need."

Somebody get this Tatra under control! Sweet heaven, it'll kill us all!
Unquestionably, the best part of the Internet is finding snippets of incomprehensible Czech movies without any context whatsoever. Is this a crash test video? Is it from the outtakes of a feature film? Maybe it's part of a PSA?
Whatever it is, it's amazing and deserves a closer look.
Take a look at the base video and let us know what you think.
We found this video by searching "Tatra Crash" on YouTube hoping to find people beating the shit out of some old air-cooled V8 sedans, but this is so much better.
Honestly, we still have no clue what's going on in this little film. First we see the crew send a Tatra truck down a hill, then they do it again and it takes out their expensive camera.
Later on, they send the truck down a different hill, only this time it explodes. Then the cameraman focuses ominously on a bicycle, then cuts away. We have no explanation for what's going on because, hey, it's in Czech.
We would also like to point out that the video was uploaded by a man who's name is actually Zoltan. Zoltan! There's also some great close-up footage of the driver.
The video ends even more mysteriously, with a car driving off into the distance and then vanishing into a flash of light. What the hell?
Do you have any better idea what's going on in this movie?

Kings of ethanol and new GM buddy, Coskata, has announced it has broken ground on an new cellulosic ethanol plant in Pennsylvania that could be churning out the alternative fuel as early as next year. Coskata claims it can produce the two carbon alcohol at a cost of $1 per gallon so unless they aren't interested in getting to step three, expect pricing on the more renewable fuel to be higher than that. Regardless, it will likely beat the hell out of that $5.40 gallon gas bullshit going on in California.
The plant location in question is in Madison, PA, and when complete will be capable of producing 40,000 gallons of ethanol annually. Consider this as just the start for Coskata, as they have even bigger plants planned for 2011. Color us unimpressed at this point, as 40,000 gallons is about enough to get a flexfuel Suburban to the Trader Joe's and back. [CNET]

Angelina Jolie is not gaining new fans among Bosnian women who were sexually abused uring the 1990s war.
Jolie, who is in Sarajevo shooting a movie she penned that reportedly features a Serb rapist and his Muslim victim falling in love, was slammed as "ignorant" for the portrayal.
"Angelina Jolie's ignorant attitude towards victims says enough about the scenario and gives us the right to continue having doubts about it," the Women Victims of War (WVW) association said in a letter published Monday.
In the letter to the United Nations refugee agency (UNHCR), for which Jolie is a goodwill ambassador, the association said its members were "deeply concerned" over the movie.
The film, Jolie's directorial debut, is set during the 1992-1995 war. She had early problems getting permission to shoot in Bosnia, due to complaints by victims' groups. A synopsis of the movie describes it as a love story between a Serb guard in a prison camp and a Muslim detainee, his former girlfriend. Media reports in the country have since added the rape angle.
Although it cannot be verified, the rape aspect ticked off the victims' groups, who sought a meeting with Jolie. But it never happened, leaving the groups fearing their suffering will distorted.
"As far as we are concerned a love story could not have existed in a camp. Such an interpretation is causing us mental suffering," she stressed.
The 1992-1995 war between Bosnia's Croats, Muslims and Serbs claimed some 100,000 lives. Government officials estimate that at least 20,000 mostly Muslim women were raped during the conflict.

A Lot To Say...
Just Because I'm A Vampire
this isnt about any one particular vampire just vampires in general.
1. A Lot To Say...
Rating 4.5/5 Word Count 143 Review this Chapter
A lot to say…… Just because I am a vampire, Doesn't mean I want to suck your blood, Doesn't mean I want to scare you, I just want to be seen as normal sometimes too. Just Because I am a vampire, Doesn't mean I sleep in a casket, Doesn't mean I can turn into a bat, I still am a human being, In a way . . . Just because I am a vampire, I can still have friends, I can still have feelings, I still love, hate, hope, I still have faith, I still have a family, Just because I am a vampire, I can suck your blood, If you hurt my loved ones, I will come after you, You will be afraid, And you will die. Just because I am a vampire, I have a life too.

Note: Our themes are updated about once every two months. Since we update our themes regularly you can be sure you get as close to the latest stable releases of Drupal core and the modules used in our themes. Note: We often do not update our themes with "Beta" or "Dev" module releases, as these change more frequently, are not as stable, and sometimes cause errors and other site issues.
IMPORTANT: The Best Mobile Drupal theme comes with an installation profile which installs the theme using the MySQL database and website information that you see in the demo of this theme. This means the theme needs to be installed on a new MySQL database and as a fresh Drupal installation unless you want to attempt to migrate the theme into your existing website (not supported by ThemeSnap.com). Read the easy setup instructions for the Best Mobile theme using the included profile installation. Please read our Terms of Service before purchasing this product. It's understood that you are agreeing to these terms if you choose to purchase and use this theme.

SilverStone TJ08-E Micro-ATX Tower Enclosure Review
Introduction and Features
SilverStone has a long-standing reputation among PC enthusiasts for providing a full line of high quality enclosures, power supplies, cooling components, and accessories. In 2006, SilverStone introduced the Temjin TJ08, an impressive Micro-ATX tower case with dual 120mm cooling fans. It helped pioneer the idea of large tower cooling performance in a small package. Today, improved technology and the latest designs have enabled SilverStone engineers to create another innovative small tower case in the TJ08-Evolution with even better cooling performance than the original. The SilverStone TJ08-E is a premium enclosure designed specifically for SFF motherboards and features a beautiful black anodized aluminum front panel, excellent cooling performance, removable sides, top, and motherboard tray, and it packs a lot of storage capacity into a small tower chassis.
(Courtesy of SilverStone)
To improve cooling performance, a SilverStone "Air Penetrator" 180mm fan has been installed behind the front panel to create a virtual airflow tunnel through the chassis with positive air pressure. This is a two-speed fan with a small, easily accessible speed selector switch mounted around on the side of the front I/O panel. SilverStone claims that by designing the TJ08-E with the positive air pressure concept, it enables better cooling performance than traditional chassis but also helps to prevent dust from penetrating into the chassis by use of a large, easily accessible filter on the intake fan and forcing air out of the chassis through unfiltered openings. A standard ATX power supply can be installed in a dedicated compartment, which features a top mounted air intake grill covered by a magnetic dust filter.
Continue reading our review of the Silverstone TJ08 Micro-ATX case!!!
SilverStone TJ08-E Micro-ATX Tower Enclosure Key Features:
• Premium black anodized aluminum front panel
• Large, two-speed 180mm Air Penetrator fan pre-installed
• Positive air pressure design optimizes cooling performance
• Quick access filters help prevent dust buildup inside chassis
• Convenient wire and cable routing pathways for clean installation
• Removable motherboard tray supports Micro-ATX, DTX and Mini-ITX
• Removable side and top panels
• Removable HDD cage
• Vibration absorbing HDD dampers and feet
• Easy access front mounted I/O panel with USB 3.0 support
• Two 5.25" and one 3.5" external drive bays
• Four 3.5" and one 2.5"/3.5" internal drive bays
• Independent compartment for standard ATX PSU with magnetic dust filter
• Adjustable support bracket for large CPU coolers
Video News
Medium gauge steel. Nice paint job inside and out. Case access is the opposite of any case I have ever seen before. Opposite panel opens. Neither good nor bad. Top filter for power supply fan is held in place by magnets, and sits slightly above the sheet metal of the case. Too me this appears to be about a sixty dollar case. Different brands have about the same quality for considerably less money than what this sells for.
Question: With this case could a Corsair CWCH60 Liquid CPU Cooler be used? I am thinking of removing the drive cage and just have one SSD drive. Also a GTX570 graphics card.
Would I have enough ventilation?
If you look at the video here at 6:40 (sorry only in swedish, but you can see the layout) they use corsair H60 liquid cooler. Seems to fit perfectly!
eh I guess I should post the link too... http://www.sweclockers.com/recension/14599-silverstone-tj08-e
Yes, it appears both the GTX570 and the Corsair CWCH60 (uses the rear 120mm fan location for mounting) should work in this case. And yes, you will have plenty of airflow-ventilation.
I am seriously considering ordering this case and have two questions.
* Re. The Rear fan: Is it able to be fitted in addition to the CPU Cooler fan so that both fans are drawing air rearwards ?
** Re. The Power supply: The Silverstone Website/Manual suggests to orient the fan downwards... Is it considered better to have it facing upwards ? It would be interesting to see the different temperature readings.
Remember: with so many shows on the air all competing for audience attention they're all looking for a
new and different angle. Try to use large bags; it will be easier to cut smaller shapes out
of larger pieces than add two pieces together.
The unique design of the Beetle caught the attention of millions of people of different age groups all across the Western countries and continued its successful run through decades.
