Lamu Island, Kenya's Northern Coast
Kiwayu Safari Village is situated 40km north of Lamu, off Kenya's remote North Coast. Nestled amongst the sand dunes, it overlooks a sheltered lagoon on the Indian Ocean. Situated on one of the most unspoilt reaches of coastline in Kenya, between the Kiunga Marine Reserve and the Dodori Forest Reserve, this unique resort offers just 17 rustic chalets, which are set along one km of sheltered lagoon, beyond which are 7kms of private beaches. A long established family business, the resort was established in 1973 by the Italian Pelizzoli family.
Green turtles are seen daily swimming in the bay in front of the lodge. The nestlings hatch mainly in July, August and September. Humpback whales can be seen during October and dolphins from November to March. Fishing: sailfish and yellow fin tuna are also abundant from October to December. Birdlife includes; Fish Eagles, Osprey, Terns, Crab Plovers, Herons, Spoon bills and Pelicans.
Kiwayu Safari Village is constructed entirely from local natural materials; no concrete nails or coral bricks having been used. Principally constructed by locally harvested mangrove poles, the resort also makes use of dried palm leaf matting, which is hand-woven in the surrounding villages. Seafood is purchased from the surrounding villages, as are fresh vegetables. Up to 65% of the staff are also drawn from the surrounding communities.
Location and seasons Kiwayu is situated forty kilometres north of Lamu, off Kenya's remote North Coast adjacent to the Kiunga Marine Reserve, Lamu Archipelago. Safari link have daily flights from Wilson Airport to the Kiwayu airstrip (10mins through the dunes to lodge). The trip in a 12 seater Cessna caravan takes 1hr 45mins. Air Kenya, Fly 540 and Kenya Airways have daily flights from Wilson Airport to Lamu. To connect from Lamu to Kiwayu, there are two options: by private Charter, the flight takes 15 minutes, or by boat, which takes 1hr 40mins through mangrove channels. Private charter from anywhere
Kenya's Lamu Island, one of her most popular beach holiday destinations, offers clear blue sea, marine parks, excellent water sports, coral reefs, monsoon winds, numerous hotels and beach resorts, family vacations, sun n sand, cultural and beach travel and more. Close to Mombasa, it is also within easy reach of Malindi, Diani and many other popular Kenya safari resort hotels. Lamu is famed for its excellent deep sea fishing opportunities.
Beach vacation facts Hottest time is between November and March, rainy season is May and June (hotel closed 01 May to 15 June); sea weed on beach and strong winds May /August. September to November is cool and pleasant.
Lamu The Lamu archipelago is a cluster of hot low-lying desert islands, which runs for some 60 km parallel to the northern coastline of Kenya. The last survivor of a one thousand year-old civilization, Lamu was founded by the Arabs in the seventh century and traded for centuries thereafter in ivory, rhino horn and slaves. Today it offers a unique showcase for the traditional Swahili culture, a bustling historic town and some of the most pristine beaches in Africa.
The most famous in the archipelago, measuring about 16 km by 7km, Lamu resembles a smaller version of Zanzibar. Here, however, transport is by foot, donkey or dhow - there are no cars on the island. A magnificent Swahili settlement and a World Heritage Site, Lamu Town is a maze of winding streets and intricately carved doorways, which lies to the north-east of the island. The fishing village of Shela lies to the south (with a 12 km beach), while Kipungani is the local centre for dhow-building and palm-mat weaving. Transfers to Lamu take around 10 minutes by boat from Manda Island.
Lamu town The oldest and best-preserved Swahili settlement in East Africa, Lamu is a centre for the study of Swahili culture. Although founded in the 13th century, the majority of buildings date from the 18th century. Today the town is a living monument to its past. The old houses, built with coral walls two-feet thick are built with a series of alcoves rather than rooms, whose size is decided by the length of the ten-foot mangrove poles that are used for both floors and ceiling. Many are three-storeys high and feature winding staircases, vast carved doors, intricate fret-work screens, balconies and flat roofs. In the winding streets, the majority of women are black-veiled, while the men wear traditional Swahili dress. The majority of the population is Muslims; and the town echoes to the call of the muezzin calling the faithful to prayer at the 23 mosques of the town. Lamu also hosts the important Maulidi Muslim Festival.
Accommodation The resort offers 17 Beach-front chalets, each with a spacious en-suite bedroom, dressing area and sheltered veranda. There is one Family Banda, consisting of 2 connecting bandas (each with spacious en-suite bedrooms, etc) and the 'Baobabs of Kitangani' Honeymoon Suite.
Generator electricity (240), from 07h00 to 11h00 and 18h00 to 22h30 Outside of these hours, light comes from a battery bank, which runs the lights in the bandas throughout the night. Torches are provided. Guests are recommended to bring converters & universal plug adaptors

Blizzard Entertainment's Chris Metzen announced that it has partnered with Sony in a "strategic partnership", at Sony's press event in New York City. The title that Blizzard is bringing to the new PlayStation 4 (and PlayStation 3) is Diablo III.
Diablo III was previously available solely on the PC, and presumably, the same features will come straight to the console. Blizzard was light on details, but did say four-player co-op will be available in the game. This is Blizzard's long-awaited arrival to the console.
For now, Blizzard isn't saying much more about the game, but did mention playable demos and more information will be offered at Pax East, 22 -24 March.

NEW YORK (AP) -- Oil prices fell below $96 a barrel Friday after disappointing U.S. industrial production data fed concerns about the nation's economic recovery.
In New York, benchmark crude for March fell $1.45 to finish at $95.86 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Brent crude, used to price many varieties of foreign oil, fell 34 cents to end at $117.66 per barrel in London.
The Federal Reserve said Friday that U.S. factory production slowed in January, mostly because of a big drop in output at auto factories. Most analysts think the slowdown is temporary, but it was enough to raise concern about the still-sluggish economic recovery.
"Global growth will still be fairly weak this year, which will prevent industry from firing on all cylinders. But there's no denying that industrial conditions have recently improved," said Paul Dales, senior U.S. economist at Capital Economics.
Heading into the Presidents Day weekend, drivers are still seeing gas pump prices climbing. The national average is $3.64 a gallon, up a cent and a half from Thursday, with the highest prices in California, the Northeast, and the Midwest.
Retail gasoline prices have been rising steadily as oil prices have lingered in the upper 90's and many refineries have slowed operations for seasonal maintenance. That is crimping supplies and pushing up prices.
"The annual switchover from winter to summer grade product by the refineries at this time of the year always represents a balancing act with the availability of cheaper-to-produce winter grade supply oftentimes being reduced too much in order to make room for summer grade product," said independent analyst Jim Ritterbusch.
In other energy futures trading on the Nymex:
- Heating oil fell 1 cent to finish at $3.21 a gallon.
- Wholesale gasoline rose 2 cents to end at $3.13 a gallon.
- Natural gas fell 1 cent to finish at $3.15 per 1,000 cubic feet.

HENDRSONVILLE (AP) � Veterinarians in western North Carolina say they've seen an increase in the number of pets bitten by snakes.
HENDRSONVILLE (AP) � Veterinarians in western North Carolina say they've seen an increase in the number of pets bitten by snakes.
Most of the incidents have involved dogs and copperhead snakes, The Times-News of Hendersonville.
Scientists say the increase may be because of increased movement of the snakes sparked by unusual weather, seasonal migration and breeding activity.
Dr. Fred Rosen with the Western Carolina Regional Animal Hospital in Flat Rock says he's already treated 20 animals for snakebites since May. He says that's the most in five years and will likely continue through October.
Dr. Glenn McPherson of Animals of Eden Veterinary Hospital said he's handled 12 snakebite calls between June and August. Nine were dogs and three were cats. Most of the bites appeared to be from copperheads.
�Last year, we had about six, so this is about double what we had in 2012,� McPherson said. �We thought last year was the worst, but this one has topped it.�
Summer rain may have contributed to the problem, forcing snakes out of low-lying areas and stimulating more activity. Below-average temperatures might also have played a role, changing copperheads� usual night routines.
�It may be that having a cooler summer may have caused them to be more active during the day,� said Gabrielle Graeter, a biologist with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission. �It could be the people going out and taking their dogs on walks is coinciding with the one chance the snake had to get in the sun and get warm.�

I have a fresh desktop with no OS that I want to run Windows 7 and Debian stable on. All guides for dual boot setups I found so far assume a pre-installed Windows (possibly because so many PCs come that way). Because of the bootloader, it does matter what is installed first.
What is better, Windows or Linux first - and why?
What's easier to do?
Especially with a Linux-first setup, I'd appreciate example of the steps that could be involved.

Jan. 18, 2006
Amaechi Igwe is a freshman at Santa Clara University and will play a major part of the Bronco men's soccer team's success next fall. The Belmont, Calif. native enrolled at SCU for the winter quarter and will train with the team this spring.
SantaClaraBroncos.com caught up with Amaechi for a few quick questions.
Q: Why did you choose Santa Clara?
A: "The main reason is because of the great soccer program and coaches who I know will make me grow not only as a player but an individual off the field. I've known coaches Rast and Yamamoto for about four or five years and it definitely helps to have coaches with experience, who I can trust will push me to the next level. Along with the soccer comes the great business program because my future ambitions are to start and run my own business. Lastly, but definitely not least, is the fact that I've been away for two years and Santa Clara is pretty close to home. So, I get to make up for the time lost with my friends and family. My brother attends SCU, my sister is close at Berkeley and my parents and the rest of my family and friends are only about a 30 to 45 minute drive away."
Q: What are the advantages of enrolling prior to the winter quarter before your first season next fall?
A: "There are many advantages enrolling in the winter. From purely a soccer standpoint, rather than taking a semester off, I can come to training, stay fit and in good form. It also gives me more time to get to know the team's and individuals' style and where I can best fit in. With school, I can get some of the more difficult classes out of the way so when season comes there is no added stress due to my class schedule. It is also a really good time to meet people and have fun because I know the preseason and season schedules will be more strict with fewer days off."
Q: Can you describe your experiences with the U.S. National Team?
A: "It was with no doubt the best experience of my life. Playing, going to school and living everyday for two years with the best players in the country. Competing on international soil and across America in such places as Brazil, Ireland, Holland, Belguim, Peru, Costa Rica, Paraguay and about ten different states. Playing against a variety of household names like Brazil, Mexico, Italy, China, Ivory Coast, Sweden, Belguim, Scotland Ajax, PSV and many college teams. Competing in the best stadiums around the world in front of thousands of spectators and doing all this with forty of your closest friends. It was basically any soccer player's dream."

By Paul Chislett
In his 2010 inaugural address, Mayor Eddie Francis said he hoped "City Council will act quickly to create Neighbourhood Advisory Councils [which will] bring City Hall, local residents, and businesses together to . . . meet neighbourhood needs." Adding that he would not bend to special interest groups, Francis stated that ". . . for this to work . . . ideas must be consistent with our larger vision, . . . [be] focused, and deliver on two or three priorities that enhance our quality of life. . ." .
On the surface Neighbourhood Advisory Councils sound like a very good and necessary idea. However, in the context of a divided community highlighted by the city strike and the defeat of a citizen movement to allow urban chickens, a closer look is needed at what neighbourhood advisory councils can be.
One look at a photo of the present city council indicates that not all Windsorites are represented. Out of 10 councilors, eight are white males with professional backgrounds. This stands in stark contrast to the multicultural and working class reality of Windsor.
In Windsor, representative democracy is failing to include many viewpoints and experiences, and this fact makes neighbourhood councils necessary. In a report entitled Respect All Voices: Neighbourhood Councils as a Tool for Building Social Inclusion, Glynis Maxwell reports that "…community members feel . . . their vote won't make a difference to the outcome of [an] election and/or to the policy decisions made thereafter." Maxwell indicates that neighbourhood councils, as a form of citizen engagement, should be seen as a "transformative process"; that is to say, a citizen process to liberate politics from what Daniel Schugurensky, a researcher with the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE), calls a "clientelistic" relationship which "disempowers and control[s] people" – that is to say people as passive accepters of services designed and delivered by others. Neighbourhood advisory councils can enable people to engage in the democratic process on an ongoing basis, not just when election time rolls around.
Windsor's municipal government can be described as a technocracy peopled by a professional class with an agenda of further economic growth which enriches other members of the same class. Municipalities are generally in the hands of developers and city professionals, and our elected representatives serve those interests. It is a democracy of a kind, but exclusionary, lacking humility, and generally derisive of citizen involvement. Before these councils are formed, citizens need to define their roles in these councils before it is done for them. Even the definitions of what constitutes a neighbourhood and citizen need to be agreed upon , according to Maxwell.
Maxwell points out that neighbourhood councils have a confusion of names and purposes and that there "…is no commonly agreed definition of any of these terms." Windsorites, therefore, have the ability to define for themselves the framework for the councils. The most important elements, according to Maxwell, are that the councils be "neighbourhood based", be "formed with the support of, and have a formal relationship with, municipal government", and "formed for the purpose of building social inclusion and civic engagement" , the latter of which is arguably the most key. As well, they should not be confused with other committees or advisory boards that simply give input to decision-makers. Maxwell stresses that city officials must learn to have confidence in "neighbourhood intelligence" , something that seemed absent during the debate on urban chickens. Yonn Dierwechter and Brian Coffey, in their study of Tacoma, Washington neighbourhood councils, investigated whether neighbourhood councils evolved as "political spaces" able to challenge and transform development agendas or if they were merely useful political tools – "segmented spaces" – keeping activists busy and powerless. They found that Tacoma's neighbourhood councils had yet to reach their potential as political spaces and struggle to avoid being co-opted by the city .
Schurgurensky takes the approach that education is a transformative function, and that we must learn to be empowered citizens, a process neighbourhood councils can play an important role in shaping. Schurgurensky points out that there is an "urgent need" for citizens to begin the learning process of empowerment by doing it. That we learn by doing is a key concept in adult education; and therefore, neighbourhood councils are crucial for citizenship development and decision-making. Schurgurensky adds that "…learning . . . acquired through participation … often has an expansive effect", leading to greater interest and participation beyond local issues. The expansive effect . . . allows ". . . the transition from narrow self-interest to the common good, and . . . to a more comprehensive understanding of the community as a whole." Citizen solidarity, therefore, has the capacity to transform the way we do politics.
Mayor Francis already views citizens as merely taxpayers and has warned against special interest groups – a convenient phrase to denigrate those outside the established order. This does not bode well for neighbourhood councils in Windsor. Maxwell points out that city councils and staff should avoid viewing citizens as "consumer[s] of services (the taxpayer approach)", but rather as ". . . urban citizen[s] with a vital role to play in governance. . . " . Neighbourhood councils, by transcending the traditional top down model of politics, should be able to challenge authority, be agenda setters, and build solidarity among citizens to overcome barriers of privilege. The expansive factor can also influence provincial and federal politics.

Gutsy Effort Comes Up Short In 85-75 Loss To Wolf Pack
RENO, Nev. – Austin Morgan had a strong showing playing in front of numerous family and friends, and for awhile it looked like he might lead the Yale men's basketball team to a big victory on Friday. Instead, Malik Story stole the spotlight. Story scored a career-high 35 points as Nevada held off the pesky Bulldogs to escape with an 85-75 victory before 7,226 at the Lawlor Events Center.
Morgan scored 20 points in 33 minutes in his return to his hometown. He was 5-of-12 from the field and 4-of-9 from three-point range. Morgan is Reno High School's all-time leading scorer with 2,046 career points.
Michael Grace added a career-high 17 points and four assists for the Bulldogs (4-8). Brandon Sherrod scored nine points, and Jeremiah Kreisberg had seven.
Yale dominated the glass, outrebounding Nevada 38-29. Nineteen of the Bulldogs' rebounds came on the offensive end, and resulted in 21 second-chance points.
The final score was deceiving. The score was tied at 56 with 10 minutes left in the second half. In all, there were 10 ties and seven lead changes in the game.
Nevada (9-4) shot 57.1 percent from the field and went 7-of-11 from three-point range in the second half.
The Wolf Pack has won five straight.
Story was 12-of-21 from the field and added four rebounds and four assists in 35 minutes. Jordan Burris was the only other Wolf Pack to score in double figures, finishing with 12 points. Nevada's leading scorer Deonte Burton was held to six points.
"I thought we played well enough to win, but defensively we didn't get enough stops," said James Jones, The Joel E. Smilow, Class of 1954 Head Coach of Men's Basketball.
The Bulldogs trailed by nine midway through the first half but used a 10-1 run, capped by a Morgan three-pointer, to tie the score at 29. It remained tied, 36-36, at halftime.
Yale took its biggest lead of the night, 47-42, early in the second half on a rare five-point possession. Grace was fouled by Burton on a three-point shot. Burton was then called for a technical foul when he objected. Morgan hit two free throws for the technical, and Grace followed with three more foul shots.
Nevada, though, answered with the next eight points. The Bulldogs tied it at 56 with 10:07 left before the Wolf Pack scored five straight points. Yale was within four with 5:37 remaining, but Story and Jerry Evans Jr hit back-to-back three-pointers to seal it.
NOTES: The loss was the first for Morgan in the Lawlor Events Center. He had played there four times prior and his team won each time, including victories in the 2006 and 2008 state championship games… Justin Sears led Yale on the boards with eight rebounds. Armani Cotton added six rebounds… The three-game road trip continues on Sunday at defending West Coast Conference champion Saint Mary's. That game is a homecoming for Kreisberg, a Berkeley, Calif., native.

Will Zoya Farouqi, played by Surbhi Jyoti, ever get to meet her onscreen father in popular TV show " Qubool Hai"?
The Zee TV's show hit the small screen in October 2012 and even after about 310 episodes, Zoya, the main protagonist who came to India from the US with a mission to find her father, hasn't been able to identify him.
Every time she is about to meet her onscreen dad, played by Tej Sapru, some twist and turn is introduced in the story. Initially, they were interesting, but now lack lustre.
The latest promos hint that Zoya's father is trying to track her down and there may be a reunion of father-daughter.
However, keeping the past experience in mind, one is wondering, will they?
There are other pending issues in the show – Zoya-Asad Ahmed Khan's wedding, Imran Qureshi-Humeira Siddiqui's love angle, Asad's feud with his father and Tanveer episode.
"Qubool Hai" started on a strong note, thanks to the refreshing storyline and good performances. But too much dragging and stretching can mar a good show!

Barnard College does not offer summer session classes. The granting of course credit for summer courses taken at other accredited institutions (including Columbia summer session) is treated as transfer credit and is subject to some additional regulations. A maximum of 16 course credits of summer points can be applied toward the degree, subject to the approval of the summer school Committee. Although a student may not receive degree credit for summer courses exceeding this maximum, she may fulfill degree requirements with additional summer courses, subject to the approval of the committee, and in some cases, subject to satisfactory performance on a Barnard placement examination.
The full regulations on credit for summer study are available at the Office of the Registrar on the Application for Approval of Summer Session Courses. The student may learn in advance whether the courses she wishes to take in summer school meet the approval of the committee by completing the form (which includes obtaining written approvals) and submitting it to the Office of the Registrar well before the end of the Spring term. Although the application may also be retroactive, the student places herself at risk of being denied degree credit if she fails to receive prior written approval. Download the Application for Approval of Summer Session Courses.
The Registrar's Office will apply credit to the student's transcript when we have on file both the approved Application and an official transcript (sent directly to the Registrar's Office by the institution attended) showing that the student completed the coursework with a grade of C- or higher. Some academic departments may have additional requirements.
Read about Columbia University Summer School.
Amount of Credit
- To be credited toward the degree, courses must be given at accredited institutions. Courses should meet for at least 5 weeks and must meet for at least 35 hours. If your proposed course does not meet these criteria, you must file the Summer Petition. No undergraduate lecture course that meets for under 35 hours will be approved. Barnard does not give credit for online courses.
- No more than two courses for a total of no more than eight points may be taken in a single summer session of no less than 5 weeks. (Some institutions may have more than one session in a summer.)
- Courses that earn fewer than 3 semester credits or 5 quarter credits will not be accepted in fulfillment of College requirements. They may count toward the 122 (or 121 for transfers) points for the degree. (3 quarter points are equal to 2 semester points.)
- Credit will be given only for grades of C- or higher. P (Pass) is not acceptable.
- Summer course grades are not included in the Barnard grade point average but they will be included in the calculation for Latin honors.
- These courses and grades may be considered by graduate or professional schools, which normally require the submission of an applicant's transcripts from all the colleges attended.
Credit Toward the Degree
No more than 16 semester points of summer session credit may be counted toward the degree.
Language Requirement
- No credit will be given for a language course, whether or not taken to fulfill the requirement, if it is at the same level as a previously credited course.
- Prior approval for courses taken to satisfy the language requirement is at the discretion of the department, which may require a placement test in September.
Major Requirement
- A minimum of 6 courses in the major must be taken in the autumn or spring terms while the student is enrolled at Barnard.
- Additional major courses may be taken in the summer if approved by the major adviser and the major department chair.
Transfer Students
Summer session credit may not be counted in the minimum 60 points which must be completed at Barnard, or in the minimum of 6 courses which must be taken in the major while you are enrolled at Barnard.
- The Application for Approval of Summer Session Courses must include the appropriate signatures before being submitted to the Registrar's Office for approval by the committee.
- Catalogue descriptions of courses must be attached for evaluation.
- Documentation of summer session start and end dates and of the hours of class meetings must be attached to the Application.
- Columbia courses that do not require approvals in the fall or spring terms do not require course descriptions in summer. NOTE: All courses for major credit require approvals, including Columbia courses.
- Once a student files the application, she will normally receive notification of the Committee's action within three weeks.
A fee of $100 will be charged to the student's account when credit is applied toward the Barnard degree.

Workspace: Face-to-Face Fallacies
Publication Date:
April 2013
Columnist Alison Maitland professes surprise that senior figures at Google and Yahoo! apparently hold conventional views about working in the office versus elsewhere. She argues that they seem to have fallen into a trap that catches many managers in more traditional enterprises: that working in the office and working from home are two absolute, opposing states, rather than two of a growing range of options about how and where people work.

WHITE RIVER JUNCTION, VT - The University of Massachusetts Dartmouth's swimming team had another good day on the second day of action at the three-day, New England Intercollegiate Swimming and Diving Association Championships, at the Upper Valley Aquatic Center Friday.
Saturday morning's preliminary session was cancelled, and all of the competition was conducted in the finals session Saturday evening. After Saturday's session, the men are in third place in an 11-team field with 282 points, while the women are sixth in a 19-team field with 477 points.
For the women, senior Meredith Maki (Holden, MA/ Wachusett Regional HS) broke the school record when she finished fifth in the 1000 yard freestyle in 11:02.94. She also led off the 200 medley relay with a record breaking time of 29.30 seconds in the first leg. Senior Morgan Cooper (Sunderland, MA/ Frontier Regional HS) was ninth with a personal best time of 11:10.87. In the 200 individual medley, senior Maggie Conlon (Methuen, MA/Methuen HS) finished sixth in 4:57.04, while freshman Caroline Corcoran (West Boylston, MA/ West Boylston) was eighth in 4:59.04. In the 200 freestyle, junior Katelyn Kidney (Lynn, MA/Lynn Classical) was third in 2:00.11 and Cooper was eighth in 2:02.53. The 800 freestyle relay team of Cooper, Corcoran, Maki and Kidney finished third in a school record time of 8:11.80.
Among the men, freshman Justin Floeck (Middleboro, MA/Middleboro HS) was eighth in the 1000 yard freestyle in 10:33.49, and seventh in the 200 freestyle in 1:50.60. In the 400 individual medley, freshman Bryan Baranick (Assonet, MA/Apponequet HS) was third in 4:30.66, senior Kevin Janofsky (Brookfield, CT/Brookfield HS) was eighth in 4:39.03, and freshman Robert Braza (Attleboro, MA/Attleboro HS) was 10th in 4:41.23. In the 100 breaststroke, sophomore Phil Lowney (Mattapoisett, MA/Bishop Stang HS/ Roger Williams) was seventh in an ECAC "B" cut time of 1:01.76, and freshman Charles London (New Bedford, MA/New Bedford HS/Bristol CC) was eighth in 1:02.60, and both times were personal bests. The 800 freestyle relay team of freshman Max Kearns (Marion, MA/Bishop Stang HS/Northeastern), Janofsky, Baranick and Floeck was third in 7:30.72.
"We had another great day despite the cancellation of trials this morning," said UMass Dartmouth Head Coach Cathy Motta. "We adjusted well to swimming timed finals in the evening. Meredith Maki had a record setting day, setting a school record in the 1000 freestyle, and coming back by leading off the 200 medley relay with a record breaking time. We wrapped up a near perfect day with the women's relay finishing third in a school record time, and the men's relay duplicating their third place finish."
The championships will conclude Sunday.

Rob's Interview with BBC News
BBC.co.UK Actor Robert Pattinson has predicted that his new art-house film Cosmopolis will be embraced by Twilight fans.
The story begins with Packer setting out for a haircut in his stretch limousine. The car journey across Manhattan is punctuated by casual sex, abstract conversations and violent street protests.
At one point, Packer receives a prostate examination in the back of his limo and later gets a cream pie in the face from an anarchist.
"It's nice to do a movie where there's at least one scene you know is never going to be repeated," said Pattinson.
Asked what his Twilight fanbase would make of the film, the 26-year-old star said: "I think a lot of them will really connect to it. Over the years, people kind of get an idea of what you're trying to do.
"Some of them will follow - some of them will just want you to play vampires, but most people don't want you to repeat yourself. So hopefully they'll like it."
Twilight fans, he suggested, had come in for unfair criticism.
"People put down Twilight fans, but yesterday I got given on the red carpet in Berlin all these books from people who are lined up in the rain and are probably judged by everyone to be crazy.
"I got a signed first edition of the Martin Amis book, Money; a Lawrence Ferlinghetti book; the new [Michel] Houellebecq book. All these people come up and give what they've been reading and found interesting. This is not giving you teddy bears!"
'Really weird'
Cosmopolis was Pattinson's first film after finishing work on the Twilight franchise.
Next up is Mission: Blacklist - a thriller about the true story of military interrogator Eric Maddox, who spearheaded the capture of Saddam Hussein. Pattinson may also be reunited with Cronenberg on a planned project Maps to the Stars, which would see the Canadian director shoot for the first time in the US.
"It's about child actors going crazy," explained Pattinson. "The script is really funny and really weird, and captures the insanity of most actors."

Meal Planning for Vegetarian Diets
Many people are choosing to follow a vegetarian diet these days. People who follow a vegetarian diet do not eat any meat (meaning no red meat, poultry, seafood, or products made with these foods).
If you choose to follow a vegetarian diet, be sure to eat a mix of vegetables, fruits, beans, whole grains, nuts, and low-fat dairy products (if you choose to include dairy).
There are many different types of vegetarian diets. The most common types are:
- Vegan — This group does not eat meat, eggs, or dairy products.
- Lacto-vegetarian — This group does not eat meat or eggs. However, they will eat dairy products.
- Lacto-ovo vegetarian — This group does not eat any meat. However, they will eat both dairy products and eggs.
Is it Safe for Someone With Diabetes to Follow a Vegetarian Diet?
Yes! A vegetarian diet is a healthy option, even if you have diabetes. Research supports that following this type of diet can help prevent and manage diabetes. In fact, research on vegan diets has found that carbohydrate and calorie restrictions were not necessary and still promoted weight loss and lowered participants' A1C.
Vegan diets are naturally higher in fiber, much lower in saturated fat, and cholesterol-free when compared to a traditional American diet. The high fiber in this diet may help you feel full for a longer time after eating and may help you eat less over all. When fiber intake is greater than 50 grams per day on a vegan diet, it may help lower blood glucose levels.
This diet also tends to cost less. Meat, poultry, and fish are usually the most expensive foods we eat.
The Vegan Diet
This is also called the total or pure vegetarian diet. Those who follow a vegan diet do not eat any meat or foods made with meat products.
People with diabetes can choose to follow this type of vegetarian diet too. The vegan diet includes a variety of plant-based foods. Eating soy products and a mix of vegetables, fruits, beans, and whole grains provides plenty of protein and other important nutrients. The main nutrient of concern for this group is vitamin B12, so taking a supplement or multi-vitamin is usually necessary.
Be sure to check out the Key Nutrients page to learn more about vitamin B12.
Featured Book
The Vegetarian Cookbook
Whether you're a full-time vegetarian or just trying to incorporate a few meatless meals into your week, this easy-to-follow cookbook is your personal guide to a healthier lifestyle, from selecting flavorful seasonal vegetables and building a pantry to preparing the most delicious and satisfying vegetarian dishes inspired by global cuisine.

2. Activity timeline: Highlight attacks, compromises, and interesting
information collected.
The chapter have been focusing on attacks towards Singapore's
networks and analyzing the activities of attackers targeting this part of the
continent. We have also starting to look at phishing activities targeting
networks in Singapore.
Besides this, based on the data collected by our honeynet in
the past quarter, we have noticed huge surges in terms of probes/attempts to Microsoft
SQL Server and Microsoft Directory Service.
In total, there were close to 600 unique malware binaries that
were collected by the Nepenthes honeypot in the past quarter.
· List any new tools, projects or ideas you are
currently researching or developing.
We are working on enhancing the reporting and analysis of
collected data and enabling tools to be more useful. We are working on options
which generate useful meanings from the collected data and enable us to do
trending more efficiently.
We are currently working with a Japanese counterpart on a
risk management framework for data analysis and collaboration.
We are now actively working with various academic
institutions to deploy country-wide distributed Honeypots/Honeynets to collect
and correlate data.
· List tools you enhanced during the last year
We developed an internal process for analyzing malware and customized
data analysis interfaces.
We experimented different ways to collate data from
heterogenous log sources and import these into our central database.
· Would you like to integrate this with any
other tools, or you looking for help or collaboration with others in testing or
developing the tool?
We would like to actively develop and improve GDH data
analysis capabilities and use capabilities that we have developed.

collaboration you are interested in.
We would like to contribute in the GDH development and
1. Highlight any unique findings, attacks, tools, or methods.
In terms of services attack, we observed the Microsoft SQL
Database and Microsoft Directory Service scored the highest number of hits.
In the last quarter we had also noticed that there were a
large number of phishing sites as
well as
sites hosting various strains of malware.
2. Any trends seen in the past year?
Microsoft services seemed
to be a more prevalent target for attackers on this island. There seems to be a
near-repeat on the same types of services being targeted. We had also observed
that there were many automated attacks against web applications and
specifically certain web forums.
3. What are you using for data analysis?
4. What is working well, and what is missing, what data analysis
functionality would you like to see developed?
would like to see more collaboration between chapters and perhaps
cross-development of tools.

Related Product Information
Isolate or deplete CD15+ cells directly from whole blood, buffy coat or MNC suspensions with Dynabeads CD15. For rapid and consistent results in protein or gene expression analysis, lyse the granulocytes while they are still attached to the beads and directly process for further molecular analysis.
Principle of Isolation
Dynabeads are mixed with the cell sample in a tube. The Dynabeads will bind to the target cells during a short incubation, and then the bead-bound cells are separated by a magnet.
- Positive Isolation - discard the supernatant and use the bead-bound cells for downstream applications. (e.g. molecular analysis).
- Depletion - discard the bead-bound cells and use the remaining, untouched cells for any application.
Description of Materials
Dynabeads CD15 are uniform, superparamagnetic polystyrene beads (4.5 μm diameter) coated with a monoclonal mouse IgM antibody recognizing the CD15 membrane antigen. The CD15 antigen is predominantly expressed on human neutrophil and eosinophil granulocytes, and to a varying degree on monocytes (1). The CD15 antigen shows heterogeneous expression on normal myeloid precursor cells, myeloid leukemias, myeloid cell lines and Sternberg- Reed cells. The CD15 antigen is widely distributed outside the hematopoietic system.
5 ml Dynabeads CD15
- 4 x 108 beads/ml in phosphate buffered saline (PBS), pH 7.4, containing 0.1% bovine serum albumin (BSA) and 0.02% sodium azide (NaN3).
- This product will process up to 2 x 109 cells
Additional Materials Required
Materials that are not included, but are needed to perform the entire protocol:
Magnet (Dynal MPC™): See www.lifetechnologies.com/magnets-selection for magnet recommendations.
- Mixer allowing both tilting and rotation.
- Buffer 1: PBS w/0.1% BSA and 2 mM EDTA, pH 7.4.
Important Notes:
- BSA can be replaced by human serum albumin (HSA) or Fetal Calf Serum (FCS).
- EDTA can be replaced by sodium citrate.
- PBS containing Ca2+ or Mg2+ is not recommended.
Dynabeads Washing Procedure
Dynabeads should be washed before use.
- Resuspend the Dynabeads in the vial.
- Transfer the desired volume of Dynabeads to a tube.
- Add the same volume of Buffer 1, or at least 1 ml, and mix.
- Place the tube in a magnet for 1 min and discard the supernatant.
- Remove the tube from the magnet and resuspend the washed Dynabeads in the same volume of Buffer 1 as the initial volume of Dynabeads (step 2).
Sample Preparation - Whole Blood and Buffy Coat
Blood and buffy coat can be diluted before use to decrease the granulocyte concentration. This is to ensure that
the number of Dynabeads per target cell is higher than 4:1 in granulocyterich samples.
1. Dilute whole blood (1+1) in Buffer 1
2. Dilute buffy coat (1+4) in Buffer 1
Dynabeads can be added directly to undiluted blood or buffy coat if reduced cell isolation efficiency is tolerated (e.g. rapid isolation for molecular studies). Please visit www.lifetechnologies.com/cellisolation and follow our QuickLinks for recommended sample preparation procedures.
Critical Steps for Cell Isolation
Use a mixer that provides tilting and rotation of the tubes to ensure Dynabeads do not settle at the bottom of the tube.
When incubating Dynabeads and cells, the incubation temperature must be 2-8°C to reduce phagocytic activity and other metabolic processes.
Never use less than 25 μl (1 x 107) Dynabeads per ml of cell sample and at least 4 Dynabeads per target cell.
Table 1: Volume of Dynabeads added per ml of cell sample. The volumes can be scaled up as required.
|Positive isolation
|Sample volume -
|1 ml
|1 ml
|Volume of Dynabeads
|25 μl
|50 μl
|Total no. of cells
processed per product
|2 x 109 cells
|1 x 109 cells
* if the concentration of MNC is increased, the volume of Dynabeads must be increased accordingly. Cell concentration can be up to 1 x 108 cells per ml.
Depletion or Positive Isolation of CD15+ Cells
- Add the appropriate volume of Dynabeads to the prepared sample according to table 1.
- Incubate for 20 min (positive isolation) or 30 min (depletion) at 2 - 8°C with gentle tilting and rotation.
- Place the tube in a magnet for 2 min.
- For depletion, transfer supernatant to a new tube for further use.
- For positive isolation, discard the supernatant and wash the beadbound cells 3 times by resuspending in Buffer 1 to the original sample volume, and separate using a magnet. For molecular studies, lyse cells while still attached to the beads and transfer supernatant to a new tube for protein or gene expression analysis.
This product is stable until the expiry date stated on the label when stored unopened at 2-8°C. Store opened vials at 2-8°C and avoid bacterial contamination. Keep Dynabeads in liquid suspension during storage and all handling steps, as drying will result in reduced performance. Resuspend well before use.

Did you enjoy your glimpse of single player sneaking in the Peace Walker clip we posted on Monday? Well two can play at that game! See how two people can be sneakier than one in this latest clip.
While I wasn't initially impressed by the thought of cooperative sneaking in Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, this video has completely changed my mind. The stealth gun and electromagnetic pulse beam weapons are exactly the sort of handy devices necessary to make a portable 2-player stealth experience enjoyable.

In this ongoing series, we ask executives, entrepreneurs and business leaders about mistakes that have shaped their business philosophy.
Jennifer Breithaupt
Jennifer Breithaupt is the chief marketing officer of Global Consumer business at Citi. Prior to that, she oversaw the U.S. credit card division, leading marketing and advertising, including global social media and global entertainment. Breithaupt is responsible for a partnership with Live Nation Entertainment and for Private Pass, an incentive offering cardholders access to music events.
The Mistake:
I believed if you worked hard and had a great attitude, things would just happen for you.
Early on, things worked out that way, so I benefited from just working hard, digging in and raising my hand for things.
Four or five years into my career, there was this big project where [the leaders] pulled everybody together and said, "We have this business challenge, and we need a solution." I spent time thinking about it, researching, figuring out what others had done, what had and hadn't worked. I brought this full-blown business plan and presented it. The organization ran with it — and I was sitting on the sidelines.
I did not think at that moment to raise my hand and say, "This is what I'm presenting to your organization. This is what I think our solution is, and I would like to lead this." I think they would have given it to me if I had said that. [Maybe they assumed] I wasn't sure how it would come together or who would lead it, so they made those decisions.
It was disappointing. I knew I deserved to be leading that project and getting the credit, and I had to just watch [when] it was executed by a different team.
That happened a couple times before I realized it wasn't enough to work hard and come up with ideas.
Don't assume somebody else will know you want to be involved in something.
The Lesson:
Don't assume somebody else will know you want to be involved in something. You have to be proactive and own your career. You have to manage that career — your personal brand — and spend time on it.
I learned the hard way by missing out on opportunities because I didn't know it's not just about the hard work.
If the people you work for and work with don't know you're interested in leading something or in taking it all the way to the line, you're doing yourself a disservice. No one else is going to do that for you. People help along the way, but you own your career.
You have to [ask for what you want] because maybe they don't want to give [a project] to somebody else, but they may not know you're interested in it.
Build your own brand, and merchandise the work you do. Be proactive, whether in a meeting or a special project or with a client, and don't expect that someone [else] will pull you along.

Arnold Schwarzenegger Returns to Bodybuilding Roots
(NEW YORK) -- Arnold Schwarzenegger will be flexing his editorial muscle as group executive editor of two bodybuilding magazines.
The former governor of California has re-joined the masthead at Muscle & Fitness and Flex magazines, where he will contribute monthly columns and provide strategic and creative input.
The re-partnering was announced Friday by American Media Inc., which owns both magazines.
In 1968, a 21-year-old Schwarzenegger was made the face of bodybuilding by his mentor and owner of the magazines, Joe Wieder. Schwarzenegger has since appeared on the cover of both publications more than 60 times.
The Terminator star had to resign from his gig at the publications when he was elected governor of California in 2003.
"It was in these magazines that I found the spark that inspired me to start lifting weights, and eventually move to America and realize my dreams, and I'm proud to return as executive editor," Schwarzenegger said in a statement. "Bodybuilding has always been part of my life, and I know Muscle & Fitness and Flex will continue to motivate others — as it did me — to lift weights and lead a healthy lifestyle, promote the sport of bodybuilding, and, as Joe used to say in every issue, 'exceed themselves'."
Schwarzenegger has kept busy starring in action movies since leaving office. He most recently appeared in The Last Stand.

RIAs remain skeptical of alternative investments despite increasing demand (Investment News)
According to Investment News, alternative product sponsors target RIAs for three reasons: "The need for diversification," the need for "high-yield products in a low-interest-rate environment," and because "a lot of brokers are moving into the RIA space and want to be able to offer their clients the same products they did before, including alts." However, many RIAs have been slow to gravitate towards the products because they have higher fees and lower liquidity.

CLEMSON, S.C. – Georgia College & State University men's basketball alumnus Earl Grant (1998-2000) was named assistant men's basketball coach at Clemson University April 26. Grant, who spent the last three seasons as an assistant at Wichita State University, was an integral part of two of the best teams in program history.
Grant played for two NCAA Tournament qualifying teams in his two seasons at Georgia College, including the 1999-2000 Elite Eight run. That season, he was named First Team All-Peach Belt Conference (PBC).
Grant had spent time on Division I coaching staffs at The Citadel and Winthrop University before going to Wichita State. He helped both WSU and Winthrop to NCAA Tournament appearances.
Clemson head coach Brad Brownell had high praise for the former Bobcat.
"He's worked for a very good coach in successful programs. He knows what it takes to win. He's a guy who's wanted to be at Clemson. He's got an affinity for this place. He's a rising star in our business because of how hard he works and the contacts he makes in recruiting. He's a great father and is a guy who has a good knowledge of the game."
Clemson men's basketball was 21-11 with a 9-7 mark in the Atlantic Coast Conference in 2009-10. The Tigers went to the NCAA Tournament, falling in the first round 86-78 to the University of Missouri.
The GCSU Department of Athletics, winners of the 2008-09 PBC Commissioner's Cup, sponsors 10 varsity athletic programs at the NCAA Division II level. As a Division II program, Georgia College prides itself on balancing the life of the student-athlete, evidenced by the Bobcats' multiple appearances in post-season competition as well as documented academic success and community-service involvement.

E.T. You are definitely old.
Well, you are exactly two weeks older than me, so I suppose you must be old, because I am.
Yeah, I'm pretty much the oldest person in every group I'm associated with. I never thought I'd last this long.

Adverbs are words that modify (1) verbs, (2) adjectives, and (3) other adverbs. They tell how (manner), when (time), where (place), how much (degree), and why (cause). Why is a common one-word adverb that tells why. Adverbs that tell us how, when, where, and why always modify the verb. These adverbs can shift location in the sentence without changing meaning or what they modify. Adverbs that tell us how much modify adjectives or other adverbs. Adverbs that tell how much will come just before the adjectives or adverbs that they modify. These adverbs are also called qualifiers because they strengthen or weaken the words they modify. Examples: He kicked the ball solidly (how). He kicked the ball immediately (when). He kicked the ball forward (where). He kicked the ball too hard (how much).
Not and its contraction n't are adverbs. They really modify the entire sentence, but we will have them modify the verb as it is the most important word in the sentence. This is a common practice in grammar books.
Instructions: Find the adverbs in the following sentences and tell what word they modify.
1. Do you live here?
2. Should we play inside or outside?
3. Where is your coat, young man?
4. From the sound the bears must be nearby.
5. There he goes.
--For answers scroll down.
1. here modifies the verb do live telling where
2. inside/outside modify the verb should play telling where
3. where modifies the verb is telling where
4. nearby modifies the verb must be telling where
5. there modifies the verb goes telling where
