The Mississippi Supreme Court on Thursday upheld the pardons issued by former Gov. Haley Barbour during his final days in office, including those of four convicted killers who had worked at the Governor's Mansion.
Barbour, a Republican who once considered running for president, pardoned 198 people before finishing his second term Jan. 10. Of those pardoned, 10 were incarcerated at the time, including the four convicted killers and a robber who worked at the Governor's Mansion.
The five former Governor's Mansion trusties had already been released by the time Democratic Attorney General Jim Hood persuaded a lower court judge to issue a restraining order that kept the five other inmates in prison.
Mississippi Department of Corrections spokeswoman Tara Booth said those inmates will be released 48 hours after law enforcement and prosecutors are notified in the county where they were convicted.
"Once all the required notifications have been completed, the inmates will be released," she said.
Hood had challenged the pardons based on the argument that many of them didn't follow a requirement in the state Constitution to publish notices in newspapers.
In their 6-3 opinion, the Mississippi Supreme Court wrote "we are compelled to hold that — in each of the cases before us — it fell to the governor alone to decide whether the Constitution's publication requirement was met." The court also said it couldn't overturn the pardons because of the Constitution's separation of powers of the different branches of government.
Hood's temporary restraining order had required the trusties to check in with corrections officials every 24 hours and show up for court hearings. One of the trusties, however, Joseph Ozement moved to Laramie, Wyo., and refused to come back.
Ozement's attorney, Robert Moxley, said Thursday his client felt like "he wasn't really free until today."
"I asked him if he could do a cartwheel and he said he's too old. But he sure is pleased that it is all over. He has a very humanistic outlook on it. He said it was hard on the victims' families, it was hard on the offenders' families, but he hopes everyone can just go on with their lives," Moxley said.
Randy Walker was shot in the head in 1993 by one of the trusties who Barbour pardoned. That former inmate, David Gatlin, also fatally shot his own estranged wife as she held the couple's baby. Walker and the woman were friends.
Walker said the court's decision had been weighing heavily on his mind and now he's just trying to understand what happened.
"I just really haven't absorbed it yet," Walker said.
Hood had said the Governor's Mansion trusties and about 165 others didn't meet the requirements of the Mississippi Constitution, which says people seeking pardons must publish notices for 30 days in a newspaper.
Hood contended that if ads weren't run in daily papers every day for 30 days, or weekly newspapers once a week for five weeks, the pardons weren't valid.
Hood did not immediately respond to messages left Thursday with his spokeswoman.
In the end, the Supreme Court said it was up to the governor to decide if the pardoned inmates did what they were supposed to do. In addition to the pardons issued in his final days in office, Barbour also granted medical release and conditional clemency to some inmates, but they weren't required to give public notice of their release.

You can now move domains across directories without removing users from the domain or losing access to users' assets.
As a system admin on the Admin Console, one of your first tasks is to define and set up an identity system against which your end users will be authenticated. As your organization purchases licenses for Adobe products and services, you will need to provision those licenses to your end users. And for this, you will need a way to authenticate these users.
Adobe provides you with the following identity types that you can use to authenticate your end users:
- Adobe ID
- Enterprise ID
- Federated ID
If you want to have separate accounts owned and controlled by your organization for users in your domain, you must use either Enterprise ID or Federated ID (for Single- Sign-On) identity types.
This article provides the details required to set up the identity system that you will need if you plan to use Enterprise ID or Federated ID to authenticate your end users.
The set up directory and set up domain procedures described in this document are completely decoupled. This means that you can do these procedures in any order or in parallel. However, the procedure to link email domains to directories will be done only after you have completed both these procedures.
Organization identity provider such as Active Directory, Azure, Ping, Okta, InCommon, or Shibboleth.
To know more about setting up SSO for Creative Cloud with some of the commonly used IdPs, see More like this at the end of the article.
Created, owned and managed by the end user. Adobe performs the authentication and the end user manages the identity. Users retain complete control over files and data associated with their ID. Users can purchase additional products and services from Adobe. Admins invite users to join the organization, and can remove them. However, users cannot be locked out from their Adobe ID accounts. The admin can't delete or take over the accounts. No setup is necessary before you can start using Adobe IDs.
The following are a few requirements and scenarios, where Adobe IDs are recommended:
- If you want to enable users to create, own, and manage their identities.
- If you want to allow users to purchase or sign up for other Adobe products and services.
- If users are expected to use other Adobe services, which do not currently support Enterprise or Federated IDs.
- If users already have Adobe IDs, and associated data such as files, fonts, or settings.
- In educational setups, where students can retain their Adobe ID after they graduate.
- If you have contractors and freelancers who do not use email addresses on domains you control.
- If you have an Adobe teams contract, you will need to use this identity type
Created, owned, and managed by an organization. Adobe hosts the Enterprise ID and performs authentication, but the organization maintains the Enterprise ID. End users cannot sign up and create an Enterprise ID, nor can they sign up for additional products and services from Adobe using an Enterprise ID.
Admins create an Enterprise ID and issue it to a user. Admins can revoke access to products and services by taking over the account, or deleting the Enterprise ID to permanently block access to associated data.
The following are a few requirements and scenarios where Enterprise IDs are recommended:
- If you need to maintain strict control over apps and services available to a user.
- If you need emergency access to files and data associated with an ID.
- If you need the ability to completely block or delete a user account.
Created and owned by an organization, and linked to the enterprise directory via federation. The organization manages credentials and processes Single Sign-On via a SAML2 Identity Provider (IdP).
The following are a few requirements and scenarios where Federated IDs are recommended:
- If you want to provision users based on your organization's enterprise directory.
- If you want to manage authentication of users.
- If you need to maintain strict control over apps and services available to a user.
- If you want to allow users to use the same email address to sign up for an Adobe ID.
The Identity Provider must be TLS 1.2 compliant.
The portion of an email address after the @ symbol. To use a domain with Enterprise or Federated ID, you must first validate your ownership of that domain.
For example, if an organization owns multiple domains (geometrixx.com, support.geometrixx.com, contact.geometrixx.com) but their employees are authenticated against geometrixx.com. In this case, the organization will use the geometrixx.com domain to set up their identity on the Admin Console.
- Works with IdP directory managers and DNS managers to set up identity in the Admin Console. This document is targeted at System admins who will have access to the Admin Console. The persona is expected to work with the other personas who (usually) will not have access to the Admin Console.
User identities are verified against an authentication source. To use Enterprise ID or Federated ID, set up your own authentication source by adding a domain. For example, if your email address is email@example.com, example.com is your domain. Adding a domain permits the creation of Enterprise IDs or Federated IDs with email addresses on the domain. A domain can be used either with Enterprise IDs or Federated IDs, but not both. You can however add multiple domains.
An organization must validate their control over a domain. An organization can also add multiple domains. However, a domain can be added only once. Known public and generic domains, such as gmail.com or yahoo.com cannot be added at all.
To know more about the Identity types, see Manage identity types.
To use Enterprise IDs or Federated IDs, start by setting up a directory to which you can link one or more domains.
To set up a directory:
- Create a directory in the Admin Console.
- (Federated ID only, except Microsoft Azure or Google as IdP) Adobe will provision the directory. This usually takes up to 48 hours.
- If you set up your organization for Enterprise ID identity, you can start linking your email domains to the directory.
- (Federated ID only) After Adobe has provisioned your directory, configure the SAML settings for the directory.
(Federated ID only) Choose your IdP from the provided options, then:
- Click Create for SAML Provider,
- Click Next for Microsoft Azure and follow the steps under Create a directory section in Set up Azure AD Connector. or
- Click Next for Google and follow the steps under Create a directory section in Set up Google federation.
Your directory is created.
If you have chosen to create an Enterprise ID identity type directory, you are done. Go ahead and set up your domains in the Admin Console.
If you have chosen to create a Federated ID identity type directory with an identity provider other than Microsoft Azure or Google, Adobe will need to provision this directory before you can proceed with any more operations on it. However, you don't need to wait around while Adobe provisions the directory. You can go ahead and set up your domains in the Admin Console.
Provisioning Federated ID type directories using the custom SAML-based method typically takes up to 48 hours. You are notified by email when it is done.
After you receive the email from Adobe confirming that your directory is provisioned, configure the SAML settings for the directory.
When organizations configure and enable Single Sign-On (SSO), users in that organization are able to use their corporate credentials to access Adobe software. This enables users to use a single credential to access Adobe desktop apps, services, and mobile apps.
The Adobe Admin Console offers a method for enterprise users to authenticate using their existing corporate identity. Adobe Federated IDs enable integration with a Single Sign-On (SSO) identity management system. Single Sign-On is enabled using SAML, an industry-standard protocol that connects enterprise identity management systems to cloud service providers like Adobe.
SSO can securely exchange authentication information between two parties: the service provider (Adobe) and your Identity Provider (IdP). The service provider sends a request to your IdP, which attempts to authenticate the user. If authentication is successful, the IdP sends a response message to sign in the user.
To successfully set up SSO for Adobe software, IT Admins need the following:
- An understanding of SAML 2.0
- An Identity Provider (IdP) that supports SAML 2.0, and at a minimum must have:
- IDP Certificate
- IDP Login URL
- IDP Binding: HTTP-POST or HTTP-Redirect
- Assertion consumer service URL
- TLS 1.2 enabled
- Access to your DNS configuration for the domain claim process
The login URL of the IdP does not need to be externally accessible for users to be able to access it for logging in. However, if it is only reachable within the organization's internal network, users can only log in to Adobe products when they are connected to the organization's internal network either directly, via wifi or via VPN. It is not necessary for the login page to be accessible only via HTTPS, but it is recommended for security reasons.
Currently, Adobe does not support IdP-initiated SSO.
Adobe's cloud services offer SSO using a SaaS SAML 2.0 connector provided by Okta. The connector is used to communicate with your identity provider to provide authentication services. You are not required to use Okta as your identity provider service since Okta connects to many SAML 2.0 identity service providers. For more information, see SSO / Common questions.
If your organization wants to test SSO integration, it is recommended that you claim a test domain that you own, as long as your organization has an Identity Provider with identities set up in that test domain. This allows you to test the integration before you claim the main domains, until you feel comfortable with the domain claim and configuration process.
If you already have an Identity Provider (IdP), you can easily set up your SSO configuration using the SaaS SAML 2.0 connector provided by Okta.
Okta is one of the many vendors you can choose to use as an Identity Provider.
IDP Certificate: To upload the certificate (.cer) that your IdP uses to sign the SAML response or assertion, click Upload.
If you don't have the certificate, contact your Identity Provider for instructions to download the certificate file.
Certificate tips:
- PEM (base-64 encoded X.509) format
- Named with a .cer filename extension (not .pem or .cert)
- Unencrypted
- Multi-line format (single line fails)
- Must last a minimum of three years (it saves the maintenance over that lifespan, and does not compromise security)
The Okta certificates used at Adobe's side of the Federated ID handshake are 20-year certificates. This is so that you can do certificate rotation on a schedule of your own choice, rather than being forced to do it by Adobe/Okta.
IDP Binding: Choose the method to transmit SAML protocol messages.
- Use HTTP-Post to transmit the authorization request via the browser using an XHTML form. The IdP also responds with a document containing an XHTML form.
- Use HTTP-Redirect to transmit the authorization request via the SAMLRequest string parameter in the URL query string of an HTTP GET request. The IdP responds with a SAMLResponse string parameter in the URL.
User Login Setting: Choose Email Address or Username to specify how users of this domain will identify themselves.
IDP Issuer: Enter the entity ID of the identity provider that issues the SAML request.
Your SAML assertion must reference this string exactly. Any difference in spelling, characters, or formatting results in an error.
Click Download Metadata.
The metadata file is downloaded to your local disk. Use this file to configure your SAML integration with the Identity Provider.
Your Identity Provider requires this file to enable Single Sign-On.
For generic SAML identity providers such as OpenAthens or Shibboleth, send the username (usually email address) as the NameID in format 'unspecified'. Also, send the following attributes (case-sensitive): FirstName, LastName, Email.
These attributes must match the entries set up via the Admin Console. If these attributes are not configured in the IDP to be sent over as part of the SAML 2.0 Connector configuration, the authentication will not work.
Work with your Identity Provider (IdP) directory manager to complete the SSO configuration with your Identity Provider.
If Federated ID is active, any changes to the configuration may cause the SSO logins to fail for end users. A changed configuration generates a new metadata file that needs to be reconfigured in the IdP.
After the SSO configuration with your Identity Provider is complete, sign in to the Admin Console and navigate to Settings > Identity.
Your end users are authenticated against domains that you need to set up in the Admin Console.
To set up domains:
- Add domains to the Admin Console
- Prepare to validate domain ownership by adding a special DNS record
- Validate the domains
The domains that you add to the Admin Console do not need to be registered with the same IdP. However, when you link these domains to a directory, you need to link domains from different IdPs to different directories.
You cannot add a domain to the Admin Console if it has already been added to another organization's Admin Console. You can, however, request access to that domain.
An organization must demonstrate their ownership of a domain. An organization can add as many domains to the Admin Console as required.
The Admin Console allows one organization to use a single DNS token to demonstrate ownership of all its domains. Also, the Admin Console does not require DNS validation for subdomains. This means that when you use the DNS token and demonstrate ownership of a domain, all subdomains of that domain are validated instantly as they are added to the Admin Console.
To verify that you own the domain, you must add a TXT record with the generated DNS token. The exact instructions depend on your domain host. For generic guidelines, see verify ownership of a domain.
Add information to your DNS servers to complete this step. Let your DNS manager know in advance so that this step can be completed in a timely manner.
Adobe periodically checks the DNS records for your domain. And, if they are correct, the domain is validated automatically. If you want to validate the domain immediately, you can sign into the Admin Console and validate it manually. See Domain validation.
The Admin Console attempts to validate domains you have added several times a day, so you need not take any action to validate a domain once the DNS records are properly configured.
If you need to validate your domain immediately, you can do this on the Admin Console. To manually validate your domains:
You can now link the validated domains to the required directories in the Admin Console.
After you have set up your directories and domains in the Admin Console, you need to link the domains to the directories.
You can link multiple domains to the same directory. However, all the domains that you link to a single directory must share identical SSO settings.
For your end users to start using the Adobe products and services that your organization has licensed, add end users and User Groups and assign them to Product Profiles.
The ownership of a domain can only be claimed by a single organization. So consider the following scenario:
A company, Geometrixx, has multiple departments, each of which has their own unique Admin Console. Also, each department wants to use Federated user IDs, all using the geometrixx.com domain. In this case, the system administrator for each of these departments would want to claim this domain for authentication. The Admin Console prevents a domain from being added to more than one different organization's Admin Console. However, once added by a single department, other departments can request access to the directory to which that domain is linked on behalf of their organization's Admin Console.
Directory trusting allows a directory owner to trust other system admins (trustees). After this, trustee organizations in the Admin Console can add users to any domain within the trusted directory.
To summarize. If you plan to use Enterprise or Federated ID on your Admin Console, you must add the domain associated with your organization. If this domain was previously added by another organization, you have to request access to the directory containing that domain as a trustee.
To request access to a directory, see the steps in the Add domains procedure in Set up domains above.
As an owner of a directory, if you approve an access request for that directory, the trustee organization will have access to all domains linked to that directory, as well as any domains linked to that directory in the future. So planning the domain-to-directory linking is essential as you set up the identity system in your organization.
If you add existing domains to the Admin Console, you are prompted with the following message:
If you request access to this domain, your name, email, and organization name is shared with the request to the system administrators of the owning organization.
The type of directory (Enterprise or Federated) depends on how it was set up by the owning organization. This means that you must use whichever directory type was chosen by the owning organization.
Since the domain has already been set up by the owner (see Demonstrate ownership of the domains in the Set up domains for details), as the trustee, you do not need to take any additional action. When the access request is accepted by the owner, your organization will have access to the directory and all it's domains, as configured by the owning organization.
If your request access to the directory is accepted by the owning organization, you receive an email notification. Your trust request disappears and instead the trusted directory and it's domains appear with the status Active (trusted) in your Directories and Domains listings.
Go ahead and add end users and user groups and assign them to product profiles.
As the trustee organization, if you no longer have a need to access the trusted directory, you may withdraw your trustee status at any time.
If you withdraw your access to a trusted directory, any Enterprise ID or Federated ID users that belong to domains in that directory (meaning that they log in using the domain credentials) are removed from your organization. Also, these users lose access to any software granted to them by your organization.
As a system administrator of an owning organization, you can choose to accept or reject the requests for access to the directories that you own.
When you get an email request for access to a directory you own, you can either choose to accept or reject the request from within the email itself. You can also go to the Access Requests tab to manage the claim requests.
While all data on Creative Cloud and Document Cloud is encrypted, you can choose to have Adobe generate dedicated encryption keys for accounts in a directory that you create.
Organizations can structure directories by moving domains from source directories to target directories within the Admin Console. You can reorganize domain-to-directory linking based on your organization's needs without end users losing access to their products, services, or stored assets. Consolidating domains configured for the same identity provider into a single directory streamlines management for your IT teams.
Users are logged out of their accounts and cannot log into a new session during domain transfer. It's recommended to edit directories in off-peak hours to minimize end user disruption.
You can benefit from this feature in the following scenarios:
- You have directories in a trust relationship or want to share directories for trusting, without allowing access to all domains within the trusted directory.
- You have to group directories based on organization teams and departments.
- You have a number of directories that are linked to single domains and wish to consolidate.
- You accidentally linked a domain to an incorrect directory.
- You want to self-serve move a domain from Enterprise ID to Federated ID or Federated ID to Enterprise ID.
Use case
Suggested approach
To move domains to or from an encrypted directory
To move a domain from one Admin Console org to another
To move domains between directories that are in a trust relationship with each other
To move domains between directories that are in trust relationships but not with each other
Withdraw the trust relationship, move domains, then reestablish the trust relationship.
You are sent to the Domains section under Settings > Identity. All the domains with their status are listed.
Once the domains have been transferred successfully, the system admins receive an email about the domain transfer. Next, you can edit directory names and delete empty directories as required.
You cannot delete a directory that has:
- Active users
- Linked domains
- Trustees
You cannot remove a domain if there are users with that domain in the Admin Console or if the domain is linked to one or more directories.

All used equipment we sell is comprehensively inspected and tested by us. We grade our items with the following scale:
Mint- : Superb. Has been used but it will have absolutely minimal signs of use, if any. We tend to use this only when an item is complete with box or original packaging.
Exc+ : Very good condition, it will have seen light use and there will be some very minor cosmetic imperfections.
Exc : Good used condition - what you might expect from a used item. Some signs of use, but fully working.
Avg : Poor condition overall but still fully working. Will have obvious signs of use - for example optics may have imperfections - but nothing too detrimental to its functionality.
User : "Well loved", ugly, beaten up, or whatever you want to call it! Will function but will likely have some defects, for example non-working light meter, or ding to filter rim, etc. Significant signs of use and wear.
When can I expect my order?
We are a small team running a busy shop, and as such we can't always post items out immediately - but we endeavour to dispatch stock within 48 hours of receiving cleared payment (not including weekends or bank holidays)

Activists unite on US gun controls
A MONTH after the killings in Newtown, Connecticut, the White House and a loose coalition of activists are hoping to harness the public disgust to force Congress to pass its first significant gun control legislation in almost 20 years.
In Washington, Barack Obama and Vice-President Joe Biden will announce their proposals for action, surrounded by children who wrote to the President after the massacre.
It is thought they will call for bans on military-style semi-automatic weapons and high-capacity magazines as well as extending background checks for what is known as the secondary market.
Mr Obama will also detail what action he will take by way of executive order.
''The President certainly hopes that out of the tragedy of Newtown we can achieve progress towards reducing gun violence in this country,'' White House spokesman Jay Carney said.
But many groups and sympathetic politicians are not waiting for Washington to act - either because they are also seizing the moment or because the White House is calling in favours.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid recently cast doubt on the congressional prospects of the assault weapons ban.
''Let's be realistic. In the Senate, we're going to do what we think can get through the House. And I'm not going to be going through a bunch of these gyrations just to say we've done something because if we're really legislators, the purpose of it is to pass legislation,'' Senator Reid said. ''Is it something that can pass the Senate? Maybe. Is it something that can pass the House? I doubt it.''
Delaware Attorney-General Beau Biden - the eldest son of the Vice-President - said on Monday that his state would act to ban assault rifles, ban gun possession near schools and make background checks mandatory for all schools. He emphasised that as a veteran he had been trained to use assault rifles and knew that they had no place on American streets.
It seems a key part of the control advocates' strategy is to front the campaign with known gun owners to reassure people they are not seeking a blanket ban on ownership.
Soon after the President said he would act, Gabby Giffords, the former Democratic congresswoman who survived being shot in the Tucson mass attack, said she and her husband were establishing a fund-raising committee to support the campaign.
She also emphasised that she was a gun owner who supported the Second Amendment.
Also on Monday, Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley said he would pursue assault-rifle bans and tighten licensing laws, while on Tuesday New York became the first state to institute such a ban since the Newtown killings. Similar bills are to be introduced in New Jersey and are being discussed in Connecticut and Colorado.
Mr Obama's former chief of staff, Chicago mayor Rahm Emanuel, this week told the city's pension fund managers to sell holdings in arms manufacturers and called on other mayors to follow his lead. He also plans to introduce to the city bans that mirror those the President wants nationally.
Nick O'Malley is a senior writer and a former US correspondent for The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age.

Geiger Authorized RetailerShop All Geiger | Shop All Ward Bennett
Full Round Table by Geiger from Herman Miller
designed by Ward Bennett
At first glance Full Round Table appears to be a misnomer; this Geiger Table is available as a square or rectangle, shapes not usually associated with being round. But on closer inspection you'll see that the metal frame and 4-leg base are actually rounded tubes. Those round metal tubes give this coffee table a softer feel and, of course, a great name. Designed by Warren Bennett, the Geiger Full Round Table uses contrasting materials to provide a piece that is both modern yet somewhat traditional, practical without losing an aesthetic appeal.
The Full Round Table features:
- Available as a square or rectangle table in several sizes
- Elegant wood veneer top
- Sturdy, round metal tube frame and base
- 12-year manufacturer's warranty
About the Designer
Considered the first American designer to use industrial materials for home furnishings, Ward Bennett pioneered modern and simplistic design in furniture. Ward Bennett began his design journey in the clothing industry in New York City. At age 13 he quit school to begin designing clothing and at 16 left New York City for Europe. Mostly self taught, Ward Bennett eventually returned to New York City where he designed furniture and interior layouts for some of the most recognizable names of that era: David Rockefeller, Chase Manhattan Bank, Rolling Stone founder Jann Wenner, Lyndon B Johnson, and more. While his designs are certainly beautiful, modern works, above all Ward Bennett focused on comfort and functionality, always striving for the perfect user experience. Bennett often incorporated industrial elements in his designs and shied away from excess, relying on simple, elegant and functional forms to carry his work. During the 1980s Bennett partnered with Geiger international, eventually becoming responsible for the creative direction of the company during the 1980s and 1990s. Today some of his most iconic pieces, like the Scissor and Sled Chairs are proudly produced by Geiger, preserving Bennett's work while holding true to his principles of simplicity and comfort.
About the Manufacturer
Founded by John Geiger in 1964 Geiger Furniture began as Interiors International Limited, a small 4-man operation based in Toronto that produced design-minded office furniture. Steadily expanding throughout the 20th century, Geiger initially focused on modular office furniture and case goods that could be customized as office needs changed. In keeping with this commitment to flexibility, Geiger stressed the importance craftsmanship and quality construction in its use of wood furniture. With quality construction and beautiful wood finishes Geiger pieces easily fit in most settings and seem to adapt to any change in current styles.
In the 1980s Geiger paired with Ward Bennett, a partnership that would lead to numerous awards throughout the 80s and 90s. Today, Geiger produces many of Ward Bennett's most iconic designs, holding true to Bennett's principles of beauty and simplicity. Geiger strives to not only produce top-quality furniture for the home and office but to do so responsibly, in a way that preserves the earth's precious resources. In 2010 Geiger met two ambitious sustainability goals: using 100 percent green electrical energy and reaching zero landfill status during its production process. Sustainability, functionality, beauty, these traits have helped make Geiger a staple of the furniture industry for more than half a century.

Tired of your girl always swooning over Diego Luna? Does she let out a pining sigh every time the Mexican actor appears on screen? Looking for a way to get back at her? Search no further, good sir, because we have just the thing. Or shall we say just the right girl? Meet Camila Sodi. The 24-year-old actress is amongst the finest, prettiest, little things to come out of Mexico in a long time. She's also Diego Luna's wife so while your chick fantasizes about being romanced by Luna, you can fantasize about doing unholy things to his wife. Oh yeah, one more thing we forgot to mention: Camila Sodi's aunt is none other than Thalia, the Mexican songstress who's pretty much responsible for our first moments of puberty (if you catch our drift).

Record audiences for 1001 Inventions show in Doha
1001 Inventions exhibition has reached record numbers in Doha, Qatar
Qatar, 13th Nov. 2012 – The Museum of Islamic Art Park enjoyed a record number of visitors this last month as more than 72,000 people visited the blockbuster 1001 Inventions show, which closed yesterday after a successful 4-week run in Doha. Following smash hit residencies in major world cities like London, New York, Washington DC, Istanbul and Los Angeles, the world-renowned science and culture experience opened to great fanfare in Doha just last month.
The 1001 Inventions science heritage exhibition, about the Golden Age of Muslim civilisation, was brought to Doha in collaboration with Qatar Museums Authority (QMA), the Museum of Islamic Art and Qatar Shell.
Opened by Her Excellency Sheikha Al-Mayassa on the 16th of October, it was later visited by the Emir of Qatar, His Highness Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani, who met with young science explainers working inside the specially-built marquee that houses the award-winning exhibition.

An unprecedented 15,000 Qatari schoolchildren visited the show as part of organized field trips in the mornings, while the vast majority of visitors during the evenings were local families who had been attracted to the show thanks to a countrywide marketing campaign by QMA.

Ahmed Salim, Producer and Director of 1001 Inventions, commented: "We're amazed by the success of 1001 Inventions in Doha, and honoured that that His Highness, the Emir endorsed the good work that was achieved here. We're particularly pleased to note that this has been the most popular science show to ever launch in Qatar, and the independent research demonstrates that 1001 Inventions has engendered pride and enthusiasm in this hidden history of scientific excellence in Muslim civilisation."
"Much of the success is down to the excellent work that the teams at Qatar Museums Authority, the Museum of Islamic Art and Qatar Shell, have done in launching high profile outreach campaigns and providing a world-class environment to host the exhibition.
"We are extremely grateful to our strategic partner Abdul Latif Jamel Community Initiatives, which funded the construction of the exhibition, and our knowledge partner the Foundation for Science, Technology and Civilisation, which oversees the exhibition's academic content to ensure the highest standards of educational excellence are observed."
Independent research carried out during the exhibition's record-breaking run demonstrated the exhibition's achievements in changing local people's perceptions about science, with 90% of surveyed visitors saying the 1001 Inventions show made them feel more positive about the future of science in Qatar.

A separate survey of local school-teachers who visited the exhibition was even more positive with 90% stating the 1001 Inventions content was relevant to the school curriculum and 100% of all respondents stating they wanted to see 1001 Inventions included in the curriculum.
The research also showed that the visitor numbers reflected the diverse national mix within Qatar. 15% of visitors were Qatari nationals, with a third being ex-pats from Asia and the West. The vast majority of attendees spent more than 40 minutes exploring the different 'zones' within the exhibition, with the most popular sections being those dedicated to engineering, medicine and astronomy. Almost three-quarters of those surveyed said they wanted to introduce 1001 Inventions to their friends, family and co-workers.

The 1001 Inventions was showcased in the Qatari capital, Doha, in a purpose-built marquee inside the Museum of Islamic Art Park and welcomed visitors, free of charge, for four weeks until the 12th of November 2012.
Although 1001 Inventions is now closed, a sister exhibition produced by the same team called Arabick Roots, which is displayed inside the Museum of Islamic Art building, is currently enjoying a three-month residency in Doha until 19th January 2013. Arabick Roots was created by 1001 Inventions in collaboration with the Museum of Islamic Art and traces the untold story of how knowledge from Muslim civilisation inspired the scientific revolution in Europe. Further information can be found at www.mia.org.qa.
Another 1001 Inventions exhibition is currently showing in Washington DC, where it is hosted by the National Geographic Museum.

Story highlights
- Maintaining a car can be more trouble and expense than it's worth in urban areas
- Even in more rural locales, trains, buses, and bikes can replace a car ride
- It's possible to simplify your life by adding a few nondriving days to your weekly commute
- Bike and car sharing can take the place of car ownership too
When 25-year-old Emily Knies moved from Seattle to Chicago two years ago, being able to easily and happily live car-free was a key consideration. For one thing, she doesn't have a driver's license -- and from the time she was a kid, she never wanted to own a car.
"I knew I wanted to live in a city where I could find a job and the culture I wanted. That normally comes with public transportation," says Knies, program events manager at the nonprofit Step Up Women's Network in downtown Chicago. If there's a work meeting outside the office, "I am much more prone to just walking; it's always my first instinct."
Living in the artsy Ukrainian Village neighborhood west of downtown Chicago, she finds having a vehicle "is just not that necessary. It doesn't make sense to buy a car to go to the grocery store or to the movie theater. I would rather have a really nice dinner than fill up a tank of gas." If she and her partner need occasional wheels to get around or out of town, they rent them.
To folks who have always owned a car, suggesting they might simplify their lives by getting rid of it may sound like madness. After all, what's simpler than grabbing the keys, jumping in your ride, and heading wherever you'd like to go?
Well, think of the simplicity of not paying a car note or handing over hard-earned dollars for insurance, license plates, and municipal auto stickers; not needing to obsess over which stations have the lowest gas prices or which roads have the fewest tolls.
If it makes practical sense for you, consider going "car-free" -- even if just occasionally.
Granted, if you live in a rural or exurban area far from amenities or without public transit, this may not be a viable option. But many of those living in cities and suburbs across the United States -- and across the world -- have access to car-sharing services that make it easy to use a car only when you need one, sparing you the hefty costs of ownership. Plus, you'll help put the brakes on carbon dioxide emissions by driving only when you absolutely must. And if public transit's available near you, perhaps it fits into your getting-around routine.
As an off-and-on downtown Chicago dweller since 2000, I lived happily car-free for 10 years. Like many Americans, I once owned a vehicle out of habit alone. But it finally dawned on me: Why was I paying $300 for a car note, $200 to park my Honda Civic in a nearby garage, $100 to insure it each month -- to say nothing of the cost of gas and maintenance -- when I drove maybe three times in that month? It made absolutely no sense, especially since I worked downtown for a company that paid for my 30-day Chicago Transit Authority bus pass.
And with my supermarket, pharmacy, dry cleaners, doctors, dentist -- even my church -- within short walking distance of my home, retrieving my car from the garage was more of a hassle than help. Selling my Honda was one of the smartest things I ever did. I just wish I'd thought of it sooner.
San Francisco dweller Daniel Corbett, 52, sold his convertible 10 years ago, fed up with scarce and expensive parking spots and high insurance. "I found I wasn't using it that much, and it just became a quality of life issue." A dog adoption counselor at the nonprofit Pets Unlimited, Corbett found a small studio apartment three blocks from work, giving him a five-minute walking commute. "Less than half my friends have cars now; I know a couple people who sold theirs," he says. "There's a general mood toward trying that."
As soon as I sold my car in 2003, I signed up for I-GO, a car-sharing service that now operates 275 vehicles across Chicago and in four nearby suburbs. Members reserve cars online for as little as 30 minutes or as long as one day, paying $10 or less per hour. I-GO reports that 73% of its members say they've either sold a car or postponed the decision to buy one because of joining.
"Many people, especially in a big city, only need a car every now and then. We're the 'now and then,'" says I-GO business development director Richard Kosmacher.
According to Zipcar, whose car-sharing network stretches across North America (including hundreds of college campuses) and extends into Europe, its members report saving an average of $600 per month compared with owning a car. While services like Chicago's I-GO and LAXCarShare in Los Angeles are locally based, other national programs, including Enterprise CarShare and U Car Share -- operated by U-Haul -- have also driven onto the scene.
But even if none of these services exists where you live, or if you have no intention of getting rid of your car, you still can simplify your life by leaving your car parked some of the time.
If you can, walk to the supermarket or drugstore rather than automatically hopping in your car. Feel like browsing and shopping? Take a suburban or city train to the nearest downtown shopping district rather than driving to a massive mall.
Some drivers mistakenly think all public transportation is inefficient and forces you to share too-cramped quarters with total strangers -- but before you judge it, why not give it a try in your own city, suburb or county?
Consider splitting up your workday commute by taking a bus or train a few days a week to give your car a break from the road, and your wallet a break from the gas pump. Use the time you would have spent behind the wheel reading or texting or merely gazing out the window while leaving the driving to someone else. And once you exit said bus, train or tram, you'll be putting more steps between you and your destination, giving you a great excuse to move.
If you've got a bike, hop on and use it to run quick errands that don't involve hauling heavy merchandise. Don't have one? If you live in or visit cities with "bike sharing" -- where you pick up your wheels at a conveniently located bike station and return it there or to another one when you're done -- give it a try. The practice started in Europe, but now you'll find it everywhere from Denver to Kansas City, Missouri, to Houston to Anaheim, California. More areas are joining this rent-to-ride movement all the time.
Or just get some exercise by moving your feet for a change -- and not just to the garage, driveway or parking lot.
"I'm used to walking because I work with animals," says Corbett of San Francisco. "If I had a car, I'd probably weigh about 40 pounds more." Being car-free also affords him "more economic freedom."
I recently had to buy a car, thanks to a new suburban job that's inaccessible by public transit, and I explored a host of different scenarios to make that option work. But once I drive back home, this car owner will park and use buses, trains, and her own two feet to get around. My boots are made for walking, as the Nancy Sinatra song says -- and that's just what they'll do.

Jan. 30, 2011-Wordless Hours in a Remote Place
Wings lies at rest in a small harbor somewhere on the planet's watery surface and late into the night Judy and I sit up in our cabin. It is still and quiet outside.
I select familiar, old, songs on the computer which play softly on the cabin speakers and Judy reclines on the settee reading her book.
We are sipping glasses of white wine, each of us alone with our thoughts.
We are cut off from the world outside of our cabin; the dark and still world which surrounds us. We can't hear anything outside of our cabin and we can't see into the darkness. Our world is this cabin.
We could be anywhere; it looks and feels the same wherever we are.
Tonight we are in Caudan Basin in Mauritius and there is barely any movement in this enclosed bay to rock us even with the utmost gentleness. We are surrounded by Mauritius' peaks, visible against the foggy sky out through the main hatch if we look.
On another night like this we were tucked into a tiny nook in Gaciosa Bay in the Solomon's Santa Cruz Islands, and on other nights, in other far away places where the particular combination of weather and location provided anchorages where neither wind or waves disturbed our peace, we relaxed in just the same way.
We came into this basin in the back of Mauritius' Port Louis Harbor to flee some rough weather which seemed to be coming. On Wednesday there was something in the air and the marina was subject to an unusual swell.
On Thursday we checked the satellite photo and it showed a Low Pressure system nearby. The system was still to the north but coming towards us and the swells in the marina were bigger.
Thursday afternoon Paul Sungales saw me on the quay and said, "The weather is deteriorating fast."
We downloaded some GRIB files and they showed a pretty well defined system which was projected to become more defined by Friday and be even more defined than that on Sunday, Jan. 30, 2011. From these pictures we could see that the weather would indeed get worse over the next two days.
That night the marina was almost untenable. In the morning we moved to the nearby cyclone shelter: Caudan Basin.
In Caudan Basin there was no wave action. It was peaceful.
We sat quietly and enjoyed the night.
Just as we have done in countless other small anchorages and harbors in countless other places.

Facing auctioneer unrest and wary buyers, eBay is attempting to entice developers by opening up its platform and introducing a marketplace for add-ons and auction applications. These are both great changes that were a long time coming, but they aren't likely to go very far toward solving eBay's fundamental problems.
As Webware reports, eBay will have two significant announcements at its eBay Developers Conference this week. The first is that eBay is opening up APIs to access the data that eBay's Selling Manager application provides to middle-to-large retailers. This can allow third-party web and desktop applications to access this data and integrate it into other applications and services.
The other portion of eBay's announcement is a new targeted marketing channel for third-party eBay app developers. If a developer creates listing and sales management apps with features designed for one particular category of eBay seller, for example, the seller can be presented with just these kinds of applications. "Opening eBay.com directly to third party applications through the Selling Manager gives developers an immediate channel to growth-minded eBay sellers," said Max Mancini, senior director of Platform and Disruptive Innovation at eBay.
eBay's new targeted developer marketplace and sales data APIs fall under a new initiative called Project Echo. In order to be approved into Project Echo, a developer must "meet certain standards for trustworthiness," though we don't yet know what exactly those standards are or how they will be enforced. All applications offered to sellers through the Project Echo program, however, must offer a 30-day free trial period.
Project Echo will be announced this week but won't go into testing until the fourth quarter of 2008. An open beta won't be offered until some time during the first quarter of 2009.
Opening APIs to give developers more power and creating an official marketplace for third-party applications are great ideas, but eBay is still facing trouble on all fronts. Between being accused of spying by Craigslist, a Skype acquisition that hasn't panned out, phishing, fraud, piracy concerns at its sites, and sellers being upset over a new gag policy on feedback, eBay has a significant number of challenges.
It's good that eBay is catering to third-party developers whose applications and services now reportedly account for 28 percent of eBay listings. But sellers and buyers—the lifeblood of eBay's fundamental business—are increasingly turning to other venues. It's no secret that eBay is experiencing a lull in growth, but attracting developers while raising prices on the rest of its audience will only go so far.

Cracking the UNIX Shell
After you figure out which general variety of UNIX you have, you must figure out one other vital consideration: which shell you're using. Although you may say, "I don't want to use any shell; I just want to get some work done," the shell is the only way to get to where you want to be.
The guts of UNIX are buried deep in the bowels of the computer. The guts don't deign to deal with such insignificant details as determining what users may want to do. That nasty business is delegated to a category of programs known as shells.A shell is a program that waits for you to type a command and then executes it. From the UNIX point of view, a shell is nothing special, other than the first program UNIX runs after you log in. Because you can designate any old program to run when you log in, any fool can write a shell — indeed, many have done so. About a dozen UNIX shells are floating around, all slightly incompatible with each other (you probably guessed that).
Fortunately, all the popular shells fall into two groups: the Bourne (or Korn or BASH) shell and the C shell. If you can figure out which of the two categories your shell is in, you can get some work done. (You're getting close!)
You can easily tell which kind of shell you're using. If UNIX displays a $ after you log in, you have a Bourne-style shell; if UNIX displays a %, you're using the C shell. Traditionally, System V systems use the Bourne shell, and BSD systems use the C shell. These days, however, because all versions of UNIX come with both shells, you get whichever one your system administrator likes better. Preferences in command languages are similar to preferences in underwear: People like what they like, so you get what you get. These days most people like BASH, a souped-up Bourne-style shell.
Linux systems usually come with the BASH shell, a Bourne-style shell.
If you use a GUI, you see windows and icons, not a boring little UNIX prompt, after you log in. You still need to use a UNIX shell from time to time, however, usually to perform housekeeping tasks.
The Bourne and Bourne Again shells
The most widely used UNIX shell is the Bourne shell, named after Steve Bourne, who originally wrote it. The Bourne shell is on all UNIX systems. It prompts you with $, after which you type a command and press Enter. Like all UNIX programs, the Bourne shell itself is a program, and its program name is sh. Clever, eh?
A few alternative versions of the original Bourne shell exist, most notably the Bourne Again shell (or BASH, whose program name is bash) from the GNU crowd. This version of the Bourne shell is used in many places because of its price — it's free. BASH is enough like the original Bourne shell that anything said about the Bourne shell applies also to BASH. The most notable advantage of BASH is that it has "command editing," a fancy way of saying that you can press the arrow keys on your keyboard to correct your commands as you're typing them, just as you can with DOS (oops, better not say that when any UNIX fans are listening).
The Korn-on-the-cob shell
After the Bourne shell was in common use for a couple of years, it became apparent to many people that the shell was so simple and coherent that one person could understand all its features and use them all effectively. Fortunately, this shameful situation was remedied by a guy named Dave Korn, who added about a thousand new features to the Bourne shell and ended up with the Korn shell (called ksh). Because most of the new features are of interest only to people who write shell scripts (sequences of shell commands saved in a file), you can consider the Korn shell the same as the Bourne shell. Most versions of the Korn shell also have command editing.
She sells C shells
No, the C shell wasn't written by someone named C. It was written by Bill. (He sells C shells by the C shore? Probably.) The C shell's program name is csh.
The most notable difference between the C shell and the other leading shell brands is that the C shell has many more magic characters (characters that do something special when you type them). Fortunately, unless you use a number of commands with names like ed!3x, these characters aren't a problem.
Many versions of the C shell exist; most of them differ in which bugs are fixed and which are still there. You may run into a program called tcsh, a slightly extended C shell with command editing.

Labor Secretary Hilda Solis will not return in President Barack Obama's second term, the White House confirmed Wednesday.
Solis, formerly a California congresswoman, said she made the decision to step down from her role over the holiday season.

Flanked by California Attorney General Kamala Harris, left, and Los Angeles County Sheriff Lee Baca, right, U.S. Secretary of Labor Hilda Solis talks during a news conference at a symposium on human trafficking on Friday Nov. 16,2012 in Los Angeles.
"Over the Christmas and New Year holidays with my family in California, I enjoyed my first opportunity in years to reflect on the past and my future, with an open mind and an open heart," she said in a statement. "After much discussion with family and close friends, I have decided to begin a new future, and return to the people and places I love and that have inspired and shaped my life."
Many Cabinet officials chose to stay on for only one presidential term, although a White House official confirms to NBC News that the heads of the Health and Human Services, Veterans Affairs and Justice Departments will remain in their current posts.
In a statement, Obama called Solis "a tireless champion for working families."
"Over the last four years, Secretary Solis has been a critical member of my economic team as we have worked to recover from the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression and strengthen the economy for the middle class," he said. "Her efforts have helped train workers for the jobs of the future, protect workers' health and safety and put millions of Americans back to work."
The vacancy sets up the absence of yet another female member of Obama's cabinet. The administration has come under pressure to consider gender and racial diversity after recently appointing white men to top posts at the Defense, Treasury and State Departments.
The news was first reported by Buzzfeed.

Manchester United eased past Fulham with a 4-1 FA Cup win at Old Trafford
Manchester United comfortably progressed to the fifth round of the FA Cup with a 4-1 win over Fulham at Old Trafford.
Last Updated: 27/01/13 8:45am
Ryan Giggs set United on their way with a third-minute penalty before a Wayne Rooney strike and a brace from Javier Hernandez sealed Fulham's fate in the second half.
It was always likely to be a tricky afternoon for the visitors and their task looked a lot tougher when Aaron Hughes - the scorer of a late consolation - handballed in the box after just 72 seconds.
Referee Mark Clattenburg pointed to the spot and Giggs duly converted despite fellow veteran Mark Schwarzer getting a firm hand to the ball.
United could and should have had a second penalty when Damien Duff clearly prevented a Giggs chip finding Patrice Evra but Clattenburg inexplicably ignored the appeals.
Fulham enjoyed plenty of possession with former Old Trafford favourite Dimitar Berbatov showcasing his usual delightful touches alongside the classy Bryan Ruiz.
But there was little threat in behind the home defence and Rooney had the best chance to double the lead before the break only for Schwarzer to save his effort onto the crossbar.
If Fulham were fortunate to get to the interval just a goal behind then any hope of clawing their way back into it ended quickly in the second half.
Anderson threaded a pass through to Rooney just five minutes after the break and the England forward cut inside onto his left foot to blast the ball past Schwarzer.
Rooney then turned provider for Hernandez to put the ball away from close range as United swamped their opponents.
And the Mexican had his second midway through the second half when he seized onto a pass from Giggs and saw his effort deflect off Hughes and squirm past the Fulham keeper at his near post.
Martin Jol's men pulled one back when Hughes headed in a Giorgos Karagounis corner at the near post but there was no way back for Fulham and it's United that take up their place in the last 16.

Great review, my Rourke is crying out for guards, these are know top of the list.
Heard of Curana? Maybe not, but the Belgian accessory makers have big plans. We read on their website that their "innovation strategy is 100% offensive", we're not sure if that's a good thing or not but hey, it's a bold claim. These C-Lite mudguards are stylish, robust, easy to fit... and a little bit short.
Out of the box there's no doubting that the C-Lites are a quality item. The mudguards are made from an Aluminium/composite mix and they're subtly curved with a nice matt black finish. Fitting them is simple enough; we had to take a hacksaw to the beefy stays to get the blades nice and close to the tyre but once on everything feels good and sturdy.
Venture out on the bike and there's a bit of noise from the fittings on rough surfaces, we narrowed this down to the brake bridge where the blade just pushes through the fitting rather than being fixed. A bit of tape fixed that, and other than that the C-Lites were very well behaved and the minimal look suited my Genesis very well.
One thing they're not, though – in common with other 'fashionable' mudguards, if mudguards can ever be fashionable – is very long. They could do with an extra few inches wrapping round the wheel, especially at the rear where they didn't fully stop the tyre throwing up spray. They're better than having no mudguards of course, but they could do better on that front. Maybe Curana could offer a longer version as well; the blades are stiff enough to cope.
Available in 45-50mm (tested) or 30-35mm widths for £39.99, there's also a mountain bike version. All available in black or silver.
At a copper under £50 these 'guards aren't cheap, but they're well made and well behaved on the bike. It's a pity they're not a bit longer though.

I'd be interested to read a review of Axiom Paceline mudguards. They are the only alternatives to classic SKS P35s that look like they are actually trying to be better at keeping spray off you and your riding companions. All the rest seem to be designed to provide partial protection on bikes that are unsuitable for winter riding or, as in this case, intended to somehow be stylish (like anything that will be coated in road goo after a couple of rides could ever be considered attractive.)
I've bought a set of the Curana C-Lite mudguards when transforming my hybrid into a comfy commuter bike (CUBE SL CROSS RACE 2009).
On the pro side I shall mention the looks. And they seem to fulfill their basic purpose: keeping water away from me.
However, I'm not convinced of the fixing mechanism. While the majority of mudguards producers equipe their products with two brace fixings the Curana mudguards come only with one.
And this is not enaugh for the rear mudguard stability. Add to this that the rear braces are too short; and you end up with the rear mudguar clapping onto the tire.
My verdict: 3/5
Hi - I've just bought a pair of these mudguards and I also have a Genesis Equilibrium.
How did you fit the front guard - given the carbon fibre forks it's seems to be too narrow at the top and consequently catches the tyre due to a lack of clearance.
Did you have to make an alteration to the guard and if so what?

Can anyone explain this? Is it really anything I should be concerned about?

I built a DIY system with the expectation that there wouldn't be any need for a swap file, yet there it is, 3340MB.
Can anyone explain this? Is it really anything I should be concerned about?
In case this matters:
Windows memory management relies heavily on the paging file(s) for many reasons, not only for "swapping out" in low memory conditions; this has been the subject of endless debates, but the bottom line is: Windows actually works a lot better when there's a page file, even if plenty of RAM is available.
You should leave it on, unless you're severely limited on disk space.
One of the advantages of having a swap file is that whenever an application crashes you can still retrieve the crash dump and maybe analyse why that application crashed.
You don't have a 3GB swap file, you have an 8GB swap file. Let me explain. Task manager on Vista and Win 7 shows total memory with the label swap file. So it is telling you that out of 16GB available memory, (8GB RAM which you told us about, and simple maths gives us another 8GB swap) you are using about 3GB. It doesn't tell you if that 3GB is in RAM or swap. It is probably mostly in RAM.
There have already been many others saying to trust the OS. I would agree, although I would probably reduce the minimum swap file size to something a little more realistic. Like 1GB. No point wasting drive space, and having too large a swap file (more for the OS to keep track of) can also hurt system performance.
I would not be worried about the swapfile. As mentioned above, this is a source of endless debate. OS authors are smart people who put a lot of thought into what they do. There is a good reason for the swapfile, and it may be more than for paging stuff out of RAM as needed. Things that might also go in a swapfile are files the computer expects to need soon (perhaps already in a format that loads them into memory faster).
There are people who have deliberatly set their swapfile/pagefile size to zero (because they had a lot of RAM). Eventually things don't work the way they should (slower, among other possibilities).
Trust the OS writers. They are probably smarter than you and they know more about what your OS is doing underthe hood than you do.

Doo Dah got his 4 month injections on Monday morning and woke from his big sleep with a hacking cough. The fun of the colds began. Nugget's started the next day, so for the past couple of days we have had two sick boys and have been unable to go anywhere or see anyone who has a child. I began slowly developing a case of cabin fever. Nugget too was feeling hemmed in, so we broke the rules and went out for some walks, to the shops for a bit of retail therapy and to Doo Dah's MG (at a cafe).
On Saturday, the 28th April (yesterday) we went to D&R's house for the combined two year old birthday party. We had arranged a mobile petting zoo and for a photographer to come and take family photos (a portrait party. See http://www.lisabarnes.com.au/). It was loads of fun. It was great to get everyone together and to see all of the Dads and the 'workers'. Most of the other kids absolutely loved all the animals, especially Alana and Jess. Nugget didn't show much interest but he did feed one of the goat's some bread and patted a baby chicken whilst sitting on his Mum's lap which seems an improvement on the recent trip to the Royal Easter Show. He played happily with some trucks and cars in the garden and played together with Michael on the slippery slide and Hannah on the trampoline. Everyone had a feast of sausage sandwiches for lunch.
I was really looking forward to having the family photos taken as I had been meaning to arrange this since Nugget was born. I took effort getting the boys ready to make sure that their outfits would be cute in the pictures and that they would be matching in with us. I thought we were ready to set the world on fire with the level of our gorgeousness! When we actually had the photos done however, neither of the boys were up for smiling for the camera (hopefully the photographer captured a couple of little smiles) and their noses ran the whole time. Geege and I spent all of our 'session' wiping little noses and trying to cajole smirks and giggles out of N and D (compare this to the F's before us who had to drag Phoebe away because she was loving the camera so much!). We have to wait one week to see the final product. I will keep you posted.
Hannah wasn't able to make it. Instead, J organised a combined house-warming and birthday party for Hannah last week and invited a large crowd. Unfortunately the weather was not very friendly and it rained all afternoon. This meant that the house was chockers with people, many of whom were very large, and there was nowhere for the toddlers to, well, toddle. This resulted in a very tense and busy environment. The fact that the rugby league was playing on the TV instead of having some nice, relaxing music didn't really add to the ambiance. I had Doo Dah in a sling and he was squirming around and I got more and more flustered as the afternoon progressed. D&R kindly assisted me with getting drinks and food for self and Nugget, but in the end the crowd got to me and we bid them adieu. I was disappointed because I love J and wished that things had turned out more smoothly for her.
Hannah is 94cm tall, so if the height predictor calculators are correct will be 188cm (about Geege's height).
R&G came for poker last night. Geege won. It was an interesting evening -G poisoned me with her moreish curry, so I spent some of the evening on the loo, Ruby (dog) farted under the table, Nugget and Doo Dah played tag waking every hour or so, G&R competed 'til the death over hands that contained nothing and the R and Geege got rolling drunk. All fun and games.

Strawberry Gelatin Pie with Pretzel Crust
This is a light summer pie that is super easy to prepare. The crunchy pretzel crust adds a nice contrast to the smooth filling. This is not your typical overly sweet dessert. Note that it is sugar-free and low in carbs.
1 cup(1-½ ounces) pretzels
1 cup rice krispies cereal
4 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted
1 box (1/3 ounce) sugar free strawberry gelatin dessert powder
1 cup boiling water
6 ounces fat-free vanilla yogurt
3 cups fresh strawberries, sliced
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a small food processor, chop pretzels. Add rice krispies and melted butter. Process until well mixed. Spoon into 9 inch pie pan and press firmly into bottom and sides of the pan. Bake for 8 - 12 minutes or just until beginning to brown. Remove from oven and cool to room temperature.
In a medium bowl, combine gelatin powder and boiling water. Stir until dissolved. Let cool for 10 - 15 minutes. Add yogurt and mix well. Refrigerate 15 - 30 minutes or until thickened but not completely set. Using an electric mixer, beat gelatin mixture for 4 - 5 minutes or until about double in volume. Add strawberries and stir to mix. Spoon into crust. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
