Continuation from Liberation Part 1.
The intelligence officer was able to take down the foreigners shield, allowing the Avalonians a chance to avenge the deaths of their people.
The men took up their positions and began to harass the enemy.
However, a repeater cannon on the wall dampened the Avalonian morale.
"Call in reinforcements! We're getting butchered out here!"
"Not again!"
"Hand me your gun soldier!"
"Let's see how they like it when everyone decides to be a sniper..."
"And stay down!"
"Excellent shot sir!"
"Thank you!"
"Alright! Give them everything you got!"
"While the Olwen is pounding the wall, I want you and your men to climb the rocks and even the odds for us."
"With pleasure!"
The Olwen tank's main turret targeted the wall and began its barrage.
"Alright men! Into the breach!"
Meanwhile, Beta Group swam through the wreckage and began to climb the rocks.
The attack was halted as more foreigners took up positions on the ruined wall.
A brave Lancer charged forward.
But fell prey to the mini-gunners.
The Olwen used its front cannons to return fire.
Foreigners continued to hold the wall...
... Until Beta Group got the jump on them and taught them a lesson on respect.
"We cleared them out Captain. We suggest knocking down the rest of this wall before charging in again."
"Roger that! Everyone get behind cover!"
The Olwen destroyed the wall, exposing the rest of the hive to Avalonian guns.
Suddenly, from high in the sky, Mordred landed on the Olwen and began to rip it apart!
The pilot begged for mercy...
... But Mordred felt it was more satisfying to smash his head in.
Semaj and the others fired at Mordred in retaliation.
But the monstrous foe flew back into the sky.
Meanwhile, Avalonian soldiers began to crawl over the wrecked wall. They came into contact with Slashes and responded with firepower.
Unfortunately, one of the Slashers managed to jump far enough forward to embed his sickle into a soldier's head.
The soldier was quickly avenged.
The Avalonians made it through the rubble and began to engage the foreigners inside the compound.
But the foreigners in the hard suits were too powerful for mere infantrymen to handle.
While the hard suit foreigners continued to mutilate the dead with their terrible firepower, Semaj hid out of sight, trying his hardest to come up with a plan of action.
"Commander, do you have any fudge?"
"No sir. I ate my last piece just before this battle."
"No matter. Have the Aldwyr Trooper fire a rocket at those demons!"
A direct hit...
... But the hard suits were heavily armored.
Soldiers that had advanced to fill the gap were pinned down with no where to go.
So, Semaj decided to set an example for his troops.
He did a hand spring towards one of the hard suits....
... And brought it down.
The other hard suit was shot down before it could return fire.
The Avalonians swarmed the foreign stronghold.
Semaj and the commander tried to disengage the missiles from launching. Before the intelligence officer had died, he warned Semaj of two missiles the foreigners were about to fire into the sky.
Suddenly Mordred reappeared, ready to finish the Avalonians once and for all. A Line Infantryman quickly fired at the fiend.
"Do you really believe that your puny weapons can stop me?" said Mordred as he caught the laser bolt.
"Take your silly laser back!"
Semaj and the Fudge-Eating Commander tried to retaliate...
... But they were knocked down again.
A special ops soldier rushed forward and began to shoot.
Mordred was a powerful foe and caused a beam of pure OT energy to erupt from his hand and blast the special ops soldier to pieces.
It was a truly horrific way to die, but the commander was not going to let the death of one of his men dampen his resolve.
With heroic zeal, he launched himself into the air and plunged his blade into Mordred's eye socket.
But rather than anguish in misery, Mordred thought it better to cut the commander in half with his massive weapon. Semaj watched in horror as he witnessed the death of his close friend.
With his blood boiling, Semaj rushed forward and cut the end of Mordred's weapon off with his OT Beamsaber.
Cutting the weapon was not enough. After he cut off the monster's hand and wing, he plunged his weapon deep into Mordred's chest and waited for the despicable being to breath its last breath. But Mordred never breathed a final breath.
As it turned out, Mordred was not a living being at all. He was an android!
"If he was an android, then who built him?"
"Captain, there is a room just behind me that we haven't searched yet. I suggest we look for answers there.
Suddenly, from out of no where, a Slasher rushed toward the soldier and hacked him to pieces.
He was quickly eliminated and the remaining soldiers rushed to clear the next room.
The Avalonians stormed the room.
"Your highness!? How did you end up here?"
"Semaj... Captain Semaj Nagirrac...."
"How did I know that you would be the one to find me here?"
"Your excellency, we must get you out of here. It's not safe!"
"Not safe?"
"No my lord. The foreigners have missiles that may go off at any moment!"
"Oh how I wish everyone would stop saying foreigners..."
"My lord?"
"They are the Menggu! How hard is it to remember their name?"
"Wait... how do you know that-"
"That they are called the Menggu? Because I hired them! I hired them to exterminate this tiny, backwards, disgusting planet!"
"But- How-?"
"Oh Semaj, you're an idealist, not an opportunist! How could you possibly understand? I learned long ago that our system would be compromised sooner or later. What better way to protect ourselves from slavery than to create weapons from the strongest material in existence? You see, it was I that hired the Menggu to come to our world and begin the great cleansing. I knew that enough violence on our pitiful planet would cause demons to come forth and change the world. Another deposit of OT would form and I would be the man that the rest of the galaxy would turn to for weapons. Do you think those barbaric Iceworlders would have been smart enough to offer fair prices like me? Not a chance! The fools hardly know how to cultivate a good business! Do you have any idea how much money I could have made?"
"But our people!"
"Weak descendants of a once proud name! But the old days are over! Yellow Castle is lost to history! We would never have had such honor unless we had OT!"
"And the missiles?"
"Glad you asked... A two stage weapon I designed. One rocket contains the DNA of the Menggu's most savage soldiers in the form of endospores. When the first rocket explodes, it will fill our atmosphere with them and then the second rocket will emit a radioactive pulse that will further mutate the already twisted DNA. The survivors of the great cleansing would be infected with Menggu DNA and turn into them! My own army would have been created without any prior training!..."
"... And then I would have ruled the galaxy! Mwa ha ha ha ha ha! MWA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!"
"Your highness, you are under arrest for murder, misuse of the imperial army, high treason and for being the scummiest being in existence."
"Ever the knight in shining armor. Let's see just how well you can use that pretty saber of yours."
Meanwhile in a distant part of the galaxy....
A being of immense power had splintered into fragments. The pieces of the former being fell into a portal and dispersed all across the galaxy.
A part of the portal opened right under the corrupt king's feet.
"I'm being torn to pieces! Save me!"
Silence filled the air. A strange being stood before Semaj Nagirrac and the confused soldiers.
"What are you doing? Don't touch that crown! It's a sacred symbol of our people! Who do you think you are? What's your name?"

Pro wrestler Bobby Roode relaxes in his Peterborough home and talks about the young boy playing ball hockey in the street and imagining scoring the winning goal in the Stanley Cup final.
Then he smiles and says this is him.
"This is my Stanley Cup," he said referring to his inaugural appearance in a world championship heavyweight singles title bout at the Bound for Glory Total Nonstop Action (TNA) Wrestling Pay-Per-View event at the Liacouras Center in Philadelphia on Oct. 16. "This is the furthest I have ever gone (singles) and definitely the highlight for me in my years of wrestling. It is the kind of thing I dreamt about when I was younger and first got started.
It is truly special going for a world championship (singles) title for the first time. It is a huge event and is as high as it gets for me. There is nothing bigger than this."
The 35-year-old Roode, part of TNA Impact Wrestling, garnered the most points among 12 wrestlers during the Bound For Glory series which ran from June to September to earn the right to face 13-time world champion Kurt Angle as the top contender in the main event. Angle is also an Olympic gold medalist and is training to qualify for the Summer Games in London next year.
Sure, Roode, a former stick boy for the OHL's Peterborough Petes and player at the local junior B and high school hockey levels (scored the winning goal in overtime for Kenner Collegiate in the OFSAA final in 1995), would like to win, but it isn't the only thing he is thinking about.
"He (Angle) is one of the best and it's great just to be in the ring with him," said Roode. "I have fought him and tagged with him before and win, lose or draw it means a lot just to be there."
Other bouts on the night feature Hulk Hogan against Sting; Rob Van Dam vs. Jerry Lynn; Mr. Anderson and Bully Ray; Mexican American against Ink Inc in a world tag team battle; Austin Aries vs. Brian Kendrick and names like Winter, Mickie James, Velvet Sky and Madison Rayne. It is presented by Direct Auto Insurance and will also be available on TNAOnDemand.com and at select movie theatres nationwide.
"I have been focusing on training, working hard and my confidence level is high," said Roode, as to how he would approach the main event.
He has had a running feud with Angle on TV but said it was part of the business.
"I have been made to wrestle more but that was to try and wear me down," said Roode. "It's just part of the job. I'm in shape and I will be ready. It will be a great night."
It's not that Roode doesn't know what winning world championships is all about as he is a six-time tag team champion at that level. Four of those have come with current TNA Beer Money Inc. partner James Storm, holding the record for the longest reign as champions, and two at the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) level with Eric Young. He has secured several crowns at various levels since he began in 1998.
Previously as an independent, Roode joined TNA Wrestling in 2004, debuted as part of the Team Canada group and took part in the World X-Cup, which was won by the United States. That group lasted two years and Roode began a singles career at Final Resolution in 2006.
"It was a dream of mine to be part of a large wrestling company and signed up with TNA after getting a phone call to be part of Team Canada," he said. "It's basically the same thing as the WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment) who we are in competition with. I liked the way they (TNA) did things and had good ratings on television (Spike TV for example)."
Roode, trained in his hometown by Sean Morley and Shane Sewell, debuted against Pete Rock as Total Lee Awesome (there were other ring names such as Bobby Rude and Robert Roode before settling back to Bobby) in 1998 and went on to work for various Canadian independent promotions as well the World Wrestling Council in Puerto Rico, Real Action Wrestling and a series of matches for the WWF (World Wrestling Federation)/WWE between 1998 and 2004.
While in TNA, he has fared well as either heavyweight single or in tag team at Border City Wrestling (BCW), NWA Shockwave, Twin Wrestling Entertainment (TWE) and Universal Wrestling Alliance (UWA) events.
Roode has not only enjoyed doing what he loves but has had the opportunity to see a lot of the world. He will be doing a media tour in Australia at the end of the month and be in Chile and Argentina for cards in November.
"I got into it because I was a huge wrestling fan when I was a small child," he said. "I watched it every weekend. It's in my blood and I have a passion for it. There is fame and fortune but they aren't the main reasons I'm in it. I'm basically shy and personal and do it simple because I love it. I worked hard to put myself out there and make a name for myself. I love every minute of it."
He said he has received a lot of support over the years from friends and family. He has been with Tracy for about 10 years and has three boys, Bobby Jr. who is 17, Riley, 10, and seven-year-old Nicholas.
"I'm away about 250 days of the year and it's tough at times being away, especially from the kids. "But they and the fans who have followed me have been supportive."
He hopes to do them all proud in Philadelphia.
Whatever happens, it has been a wonderful ride so far for a local boy reaching wrestling's pinnacle.

Kevin Rudd: High Drama Down Under
Away from the World Cup, Wimbledon, Gen. Stanley McChrystal being dealt with by President Barack Obama and the budget, there is an extraordinary story unfolding in Australia.
Prime Minister Kevin Rudd is fighting for his professional life and may lose it. Even if he survives he is likely to be badly wounded. He seems not really cut out for politics, indeed his career has turned of late into an antipodean version of The Thick of It.
Most of his party's MPs and senators seem to be demanding he quits so that he can be replaced by Julia Gillard. The pair have been locked in his office for hours trying to work out what to do. She was initially reluctant to stand, but now there will be a vote within hours. If he loses then Australia's first female PM will be attending the G20, not the ill-fated Mr. Rudd.
Phillip Coorey at the Sydney Morning Herald has a cracking account of the unfolding farce. Read it here.
Update: Overnight Rudd has gone. What a spectacular fall from grace. A noted expert on Australian politics put it well this morning when I texted him to ask what he made of it. He had always said that Rudd simply wasn't a natural leader, with very limited party management skills: "A technocrat and academic who thought he was smarter than everyone else." Quite.

There's nothing like a big unhealty dose of acute bronchitis to get you contemplating lack of a future. Reality, so called, sharpens to an almost unbearable sequence of images, almost all of them surreal, such as leaving the doctor's office and stopping off at the health food grocer's, there only to be accosted by a scruffy looking customer who apologizes in order to catch your attention. What does he want, I ask. "Are you a Christian?" Hesitant, I ask myself, what is this, a come-on? A guy I know in my profession, a devout Catholic who once told me I could have as clients all the nuns in the archdiocese if only I'd convert, regularly enjoys making fools of street people, e.g. telling the pan-handlers seeking money for lunch, "I'll take you to a nearby restaurant," knowing they'll almost invariably beg off, some with honest admissions they're only seeking the cash for liquor or beer.
Feeling lousy, I couldn't think of anything to say except "No, I'm not," adding, in a cold voice, "and I am not religious, either." Had I felt better I would have said something blatantly atheist, but as it was, I only wanted to be left to my own devices. I just wanted to get rid of him, fast. Bob Dylan in a movie made the sound-over point that American capitalism uses fear to get us to buy things we don't really need, but I think he copped that notion from Burroughs, who said that our government and that nebulous thing we called, in the 60s, "the Establishment," put out conflicting messages ("believe this, don't believe this") in order to put us in a perpetual state of conflict, such that we buy things we don't need, thinking they'll distract us from our fears. Then, too, Eldridge Clever said that we would never have another revolution so long as the supermarkets stay open.
Dis-ease does something else to you, too: it heightens awareness of the truths of atheism, including the explanation that we are not conscious of life before birth, nor will we be conscious of it after death. Also, that the moment of birth is the time we begin to die. Dylan said that, too. One also finds less hostility to Christians who say that they're praying for you. Burroughs said "Pray in one hand, shit in the other; see which one fills up faster." Knowing from my awful cough, wheezing, and spitting gunk into tissue, at least three of my clients this week have said, "We're praying for you." I could set them straight, telling them, for example, that actual studies of prayer for seriously ill hospital patients showed not that prayer helped them but that it caused the prayed-for patients to die in greater numbers. But when you are seriously ill, you are not exactly in a mood to pick quarrels with people. And all of the drugs I've been taken have rendered me ineffective in debate.
Facing death is harrowing for some. I hope I can emulate the great Christopher Hitchens, dying of a brain tumor, incurable. I hope I can go out like he did, without retreat to belief, especially belief in that other country from which no one returns. But will I? Will I have that courage. To me, religion preys on people more than it prays for them. Like the Consul in John Huston's film of Malcolm Lowry's Under the Volcano, I would like to believe but I can't. The scene of the Consul going into a cathedral and staring up at one of those waxy-faced Madonnas so prevalent in Mexican churches especially, is pure John Huston (the director of the film). In interviews, the atheist filmmaker said he wanted to believe but could not, that he actually envied those who could. He had emphysema and eventually died of it. I hope my acute bronchitis goes away soon without putting my lights out just yet. But I ain't gonna pray it away. If I die after their prayers, they can always say God works in mysterious ways. There's no mystery to me. You're born, you live, and you die. Life is what you make of it, and you don't need deity to get there.

Oy, vay! You poor thing. My two sons learned to be somewhat independent of me and I believe I am generous with them. Their mother brought them up well.
Cessation of being.
No awareness, because there's nothing to be aware of.
If Little Buddha suffered from Keanu Reeves as Gautama it nevertheless introduced some of us to the Heart Sutra. This is the one where the celebrant imagines the total non-existence of all things, starting with the eyes, hearing, speech, no this, no that -- I am relatively sure some of you know it. One of the Pops referred to Buddhism as "atheistic religion" and it got my garters twisted. Of COURSE it is an atheistic religion in that the Buddha is said to have told disciples he was not god, didn't want to be God, and if he was God, they were all insane. On his deathbed this guy was telling his people to doubt everything and use reason to decide what is true. No head, no heart, no --.
Thus it is said in the Heart Sutra.
Still though, being alive is the preferable option.
The prospect of mortality causes me to value my life more deeply.
"The prospect of mortality causes me to value my life more deeply."
That's one of the benefits of Atheism.

I can't imagine why men wear it. To repel people? I've never heard a girl comment in a positive way about a guy's scent.
I can think of several times in the last couple of months where I've been out at a party greeting a female (with a hug or whatever), and she's commented "ooh you smell nice". You aren't going to "repel" people if you apply it sparingly.
Yep, this.

TAZEWELL COUNTY, Va. - An arrest has been made almost four years after a double murder shocked Southwest Virginia.
We've learned it's the son of the two victims who is behind bars and is now facing capital murder charges.
News 5 WCYB has been following the case of the so-called 'Pizza Plus murders' through the years. We were at the press conference Thursday morning as the latest development in this case was announced.
It's been called a dark cloud over Tazewell County.
A double murder left Harvey and Valerie Looney dead on the eve of their 29th wedding anniversary at the Pizza Plus where they worked in March of 2009, and it still leaves a community asking questions.
"Really until this day, people are still talking about it," said Arlena Blankenship, a Claypool Hill resident.
Now, investigators said they're piecing together the puzzle of this tragedy.
32-year-old Christopher Dean Looney, of the Belfast area in Russell County, was arrested Wednesday evening.
"He is the son and the only child of Harvey and Valerie Looney," said Tazewell County Sheriff Brian Hieatt.
Officials said Christopher Looney has been a suspect since the beginning of the case, but it was what was said during recent questioning that led officials to make an arrest years after the crime.
"We've had people come and say, 'we don't see anything in the news, and we don't see anything in the newspaper, so you've just brushed this under the rug,' and it's hard to explain sometimes that when you're working with critical information, you can't just release a weekly update," said Sheriff Hieatt.
The owner of Pizza Plus, Daniel Morrison, said everyone who works at Pizza Plus is like family, and this family has been grieving for the past four years.
"It's been very hard. I mean, after I talked to the sheriff's department I called the store first, because the lady that found the bodies, she needed to know," said Morrison.
After rumors churned through a community haunted by grief, an arrest of a family member is dropping jaws.
"That's so, so shocking to hear. It really is," said resident Summer Brewer.
It's even prompting more questions.
"Why? 'Why,'' is the question. That's all we talked about at work today is why?" said Arlena Blankenship.
More facts on this case:
Harvey worked at Pizza Plus as a driver; Valerie worked for the company as a shift leader. Morrison said they worked at the Claypool Hill restaurant for about eight years before they were killed.
Officials are releasing very few details about this case, including how the couple was murdered and a possible motive.
Tazewell County commonwealth's attorney Dennis Lee said prosecutors will outline their case at Looney's preliminary hearing. That is expected to happen in the next two months.
Looney is being held at the Southwest Virginia Regional Jail in Tazewell without bond. During his arraignment Thursday morning, Looney requested court-appointed council.
Prosecutors said there is the possibility they will pursue the death penalty in this case, but that has not yet been decided.

RIO DE JANEIRO — The World Cup final between Argentina and Germany is still level at 0-0 after the first half.
Argentina was the more dangerous team in the first 45 minutes of play, and forward Gonzalo Higuain the most dangerous player.
The Napoli striker missed a great chance to put his team ahead in the 21st minute, shooting wide of the net after an errant headed backpass. He then had a goal ruled out for offside in the 30th.
Germany was forced to play without Sami Khedira, who pulled out of the starting lineup minutes before kickoff and was replaced by Christoph Kramer.
Kramer, however, was first injured in the 18th minute and then was replaced by Andre Schuerrle in the 32nd with what appeared to be head injury.
Schuerrle, who scored the last two goals against Brazil in the 7-1 semifinal rout as a substitute, then had Germany's best chance in the 37th, but Argentina goalkeeper Sergio Romero made the block.
Benedikt Hoewedes's stoppage-time header hit the post.
The match at the Maracana Stadium kicked off with Germany wearing its traditional white shirts and Argentina playing in dark blue.
With Lionel Messi in the starting lineup, Argentina has one of the best players in history on the field. The four-time world player of the year has had a stellar World Cup so far, and a win on Sunday will give him the one major title he is missing.
For Germany, a team led by Philipp Lahm and Bastian Schweinsteiger is trying to finally win a major trophy after a nearly 20-year wait.
The Germans, whose last major title came at the 1996 European Championship, reached the World Cup final in 2002 and the semifinals in 2006. They also reached the final at Euro 2008 and the semifinals at Euro 2012.
Historically, however, Germany has been a consistent winner. The national team is trying to win its fourth World Cup, but the first for a united country. West Germany won in 1954, 1974 and 1990, while a united Germany lost in the 2002 final to Brazil.
Argentina is a two-time champion, winning titles in 1978 and 1986.
The last World Cup title for each team came against the other. The Argentines, led by Diego Maradona, beat West Germany in Mexico in the 1986 final, while the Germans leveled the series by winning four years later in Italy.
Sunday's match is something of a tiebreaker, and it comes at one of the most iconic football venues in the world.

Had an amazing tour with Barbara lots of fun and very knowledgeable!! Will definitely do again!!
Oh my gosh!!! We had a fantastic time!! Barbara ( our guide) was awesome and very knowledgeable about all the different areas available to take your kayak. We paddled with the manatees ☺. Loved it!! Best birthday ever!
Thank you Barbara for a wonderful adventure your set up and hospitality are an A+ in my book my first time kayaking and your patience with me meant a lot
I highly recommend a beautiful, friendly & fun guided tour with the knowledgeable & enjoyable company of Kayaks and Boards. Of course you can rent great kayaks & go on your own but I loved the relaxed feeling of being guided! And I learned more! Barbara & Tina prepared us well and went all out with extras for our special Easter event. We chatted, were quiet, laughed, explored & became more informed. I felt very well taken care of & cared for!
Exceptional time at the annual Easter Egg Kayak tour. Both knowledgeable and entertaining. We were treated to an Easter Egg hunt, games, and prizes after kayaking to the island. I would highly recommend Kayaks and Boards and look forward to returning. Make sure you attend any special event (such as today's) as they go over and above to make sure everything is perfect! Thank you.
Thanks Barb. We had a great day today paddling with you around Ft Pierce!
We yes finish our kayak trip. I like to thank you for a wonderful experience during this weekend in the Weeki Wachee river. ENJOY to the max. Looking forward to the next one.
Love to camp without the hard work of set up the camping and prepare the food. Gracias!!!!!
My fiance and I went kayaking for the first time yesterday. Barbara was extremely helpful, both with directing us on the best area to go and giving instructions on how to operate the kayaks. We had a lovely time visiting and picnicking on the islands. Will definitely do this again.
Had an amazing afternoon island hopping, hunting for painted rocks and paddling with dolphin!
This was our first time renting from kayaks and boards and have to admit I was a little hesitant because I paid up front over the phone to make sure we had our kayaks reserved. Everything turned out great our kayaks were delivered right on time and we were told to just call a 1/2 hour before we were ready for pick up. We were even given an extra life jacket being that it was a children's birthday party. The kids had a wonderful time and I was extremely happy with the service, will definitely rent from them again!
I'd like to Thank Barbara for making sure we had a Great time kayaking for the 1st time!!! She knew exactly what we needed to know & made us feel so comfortable the entire time. The laughs, fun & sun, even a few drops of rain & beautiful scenery made for a Great day! We will definately do this again with You!! Loved it!!!!

I am trying to add captions to certain pictures that will show usage restrictions on the image itself so that users will see it when browsing through the catalog. The restriction is linked to a particular label or combination of labels and isn't always apparent to the casual user in my company. But I don't want to alter the actual photo.
I know that I can apply a caption or recipe to an individual photo and save the recipe without altering the original file, but as soon as I try to run the same recipe file through a batch it overrides the original. Is there a setting I'm missing or another way to go about this?

|Gentoo Knowledge Base
|2006/06/15 19:32:36
|Sven Vermeulen <swift at gentoo.org>,
|Standards Track
To improve the self-healing abilities of the Gentoo users, we have to offer a repository with specific solutions to specific issues and quick answers to common questions which aren't global enough to fit within a Gentoo Documentation Guide. Such a repository can be offered by a Gentoo Knowledge Base.
When we look at the software projects today, we find that information has broadened beyond documentation and the detail level has deepend to an almost individual, precise answer for every question. It is no longer reasonable to suggest that documentation is sufficient to succesfully aide users with exploring the world of software use. Documentation is a (and perhaps even the most) powerful tool to guide users through complex topics. Yet documentation mainly focuses on a large reader base. Whenever topics become too detailed, they become difficult to fit inside a certain hierarchical structure.
Such a structure is required by users who need to find documentation quickly. A major help is, of course, a search feature that spans all documentation. However, when hundreds of (seemingly similar yet different) topics are available, many search technologies fail. Natural language queries often express more details than a regular, boolean expression, but not that many search technologies allow such queries.
The Gentoo Knowledge Base is an effort to extend the information Gentoo delivers with precise answers to specific questions. Each topic in the repository must be owned by at least one knowledgeable developer, written in a structured manner and should leave no room for different interpretations. General topics must provide direct links to the documentation.
As one of the major features of a good Knowledge Base, the search engine used should allow for natural language queries as those are easier for people to use. However, clear cut 'n paste queries should also prove to be very effective as many questions rise from error messages.
The topics with the most content would be the issue-type topics who describe a certain error and inform the user about the resolution. To make sure these issues are specific enough (not "how do I fix a build fault") they must describe the following aspects thoroughly:
A second type of queries would be small (but interesting) FAQs. These answers are short and precise, most of the time one or two paragraphs.
Although several topics will be Gentoo specific, we will not limit ourselves to this. However, we do not add topics that are specific to non-Gentoo distributions.
The knowledge base should allow for user feedback. Feedback such as "Does this answer your question?" is invaluable to improve the search results whereas "Mark this topic as outdated" helps us keep the knowledge base in good shape.
We might want to consider allowing user comments too: they can add priceless information to the topic, allowing the maintainer of the topic to update it with more accurate information.
Each topic should be maintained by a knowledgeable developer. The system must allow the developer to watch his topics and update them when needed. Of course, topics related to specific herds should be maintainable by the team responsible for the herd.
Although not required, revision history would be great :-)
The content of the knowledge base should be public domain. Everything large enough to warrant a different license shouldn't be in the knowledge base anyway.
Based on the requirements, one or more frameworks will be chosen. These should of course be free software projects; if we can't find any set of frameworks that adheres to the requirements, the knowledge base project should build one up until the requirements are met.
We currently do not have any technical requirements on the frameworks, but at the end the knowledge base should be hosted on official Gentoo hardware and maintained by the Infrastructure project. As such, the Infrastructure project has final saying on the frameworks used in the knowledge base.
This document has been placed in the public domain.

La Terrible is the subject for the second of three First Draught posts that I'm catching up on re-posting this week. This ale, brewed in Quebec, in the Belgian style is another to add to the list of beers worth sipping in contemplation. That we're now well into the fourth month for these "winter warmers" has me contemplating the arrival of Spring.
I'll offer a note on serving this beer that I didn't get to in my original post on Post City. Like with sparkling wine the two goals to consider when opening a cork-and-cage bottle are: that as many of the bubbles as possible stay in the liquid; and that no one takes a cork to the eye. The in-bottle fermentation has created gas that wants to expand and push the cork out (though not as much pressure as you would find in a typical bottle of champagne.) While opening the bottle keeping it pointed towards the ceiling and away from other people. After the cage is removed, grip the cork tightly in one hand and turn the bottle with the other—not the other way around. The beer should be served in a chalice (a large wine glass can stand in nicely) and will be best at a relatively warm 10 – 12°C. (more…)

California Department of Transportation
February 7, 2011
District: 5 – San Luis Obispo

Phone: (805) 549-3237 or (805) 549-3189
SAN LUIS OBISPO COUNTY – Caltrans has announced that the new Shandon Roadside Rest Area on State Highway 46 will open at 5 pm on Tuesday, February 8 after being closed for one year for a complete renovation. The popular rest area between the Central Coast and the San Joaquin Valley is used by more than 1.5 million visitors annually. The construction cost ($3 million) for the project was funded entirely by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Recovery Act).
"The Shandon Rest Area is an oasis for commuters, tourists, and trucks moving goods between the Central Coast and the San Joaquin Valley. The new, improved rest area will provide the public a safe convenient, attractive and informative stopping place," said Caltrans Director Cindy McKim.
The original Shandon Rest Area (built in 1979) had become outdated, costly to maintain, and no longer met the needs of the massive numbers of annual users. The contractor for the project, Specialty Construction, Inc. of San Luis Obispo, completely rebuilt the rest area. The transformation included construction of new, expanded restroom facilities, upgrades to parking, pedestrian safety improvements and repairing or replacing electrical, sewer and water systems.
Amenities now available for the public to enjoy at the site include information kiosks, historic displays, picnic tables, vending machines and trash and recycling containers. The overhaul improved safety for the traveling public and the rest area now meets the standards of the Americans with Disabilities Act.
California has obligated nearly $2.6 billion in Recovery Act funding to nearly 1,000 transportation projects and job training statewide. For more information on the Recovery Act visit: http://recovery.ca.gov/

BANGUI (Reuters) - Central African Republic's interim president pledged on Tuesday to overhaul her government and make it more representative, addressing mounting criticism of its failure to stem religious violence that has displaced nearly 1 million people.
In a speech to mark her first 100 days in office, Catherine Samba-Panza acknowledged there was widespread anger at her government's lack of progress and accepted that her decision to appoint a majority of ministers from her own eastern region had stirred resentment in the former French colony.
Members of the powerful 'anti-balaka' Christian militia, which took up arms last year after Muslim Seleka rebels briefly seized power, say their movement is not represented in the transitional government and have refused to cooperate with it.
"The government will be reshuffled to be more inclusive and representative," Samba-Panza said in a speech to the National Transitional Council. "Voices are being raised to demand the urgent organization of an inclusive political dialogue."
With international frustration also rising at her government's record, Samba-Panza said many of criticisms were "legitimate" but added that three months were not enough to respond to the scale of the challenge.
The landlocked country of 4.6 million people was plunged into chaos in March last year when the Seleka coalition swept southward to seize the riverside capital Bangui. This unleashed a wave of killings, rapes and looting against the majority Christian population during Seleka's 10 months in power.
Since Seleka leader Michel Djotodia resigned under international pressure in January, the 'anti-balaka' have preyed on Muslims in Bangui and the country's southwest, despite the presence of some 6,000 African Union peacekeepers and 2,000 French troops.
Thousands have been killed and nearly 1 million people displaced by violence which has split the country along ethnic and religious lines, with the Seleka rebels controlling the northeast, where they are also accused of abuses.
"The proliferation of arms has created fears of mounting insecurity and criminality," Samba-Panza said. "There is rising anger and hatred in the hearts of the vast majority of the population."
The passivity of the armed forces and police in the face of the violence has sparked popular frustration. Concerns about anti-balaka infiltration of the army were highlighted when a group of soldiers lynched a Muslim outside a ceremony presided by Samba-Panza in early February.
Even in the capital, around 180,000 people remain displaced, scattered among camps and host families. The United Nations estimates that 2.5 million people - or more than half the population - are in need of medical and food assistance.
Critics have said that, with the remote country lacking in strategic importance or major resources, Western nations have been slow to react to the crisis.
The United Nations says that donors have provided just over a quarter of the $550 million requested in an emergency humanitarian appeal. A long-requested 12,000-strong U.N. peacekeeping force is not due to deploy before September.
In a sign of the scale of the security challenge, French peacekeepers killed several militants during a three-hour battle on Monday after coming under fire from some 40 heavily armed unidentified gunmen in the northwest of Central Afrcan Republic, an army official said.

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - World Boxing Organisation welterweight champion Timothy Bradley of the United States and his challenger, Manny Pacquiao, will both be seeking redemption when they clash for a second time on April 12 in Las Vegas.
Bradley believes he never gained the recognition he was due after controversially beating the Filipino southpaw on a split decision when they first met in June 2012 while Pacquiao feels he was robbed with that result.
"This is all about redemption," Bradley (31-0, 12 knockouts) said during a news conference at the Beverly Hills Hotel on Tuesday to promote the fight. "I need Manny. He needs me.
"I'm going to beat him again. I am younger and a better fighter. Manny fights for the money; I have the hunger to win. I am a different fighter than the one who fought Pacquiao in our first fight.
"I scored our fight eight rounds to four in my favor. No way he won that fight," said the 30-year-old American who trains in Indio, California.
"Manny is great but he is also mortal. I'm not intimidated by him or his legend."
Pacquiao told the news conference he was on a mission.
"I thought I was leading after every round," he said. "I thought I won the fight easily. I controlled the fight every round. I was very surprised by the decision.
"But that's part of the game. He got the decision and my title. Now I want to get back that belt he won off of me. Boxing has always been fun for me. This time the fun is secondary. This is a mission to prove I am the best."
Bradley's victory over Pacquiao was met by a chorus of boos from the crowd in Las Vegas after the shock split decision was announced, and promoter Bob Arum later described the judges as "The Three Blind Mice".
Judge Jerry Roth (115-113) awarded the fight to Pacquiao while CJ Ross (115-113) and Duane Ford (115-113) gave it to the American, who had been a 5-1 underdog.
The faster and more powerful Pacquiao seemed to be in cruise control for at least nine of the 12 rounds, and Bradley himself made comments immediately afterwards suggesting he had not done enough to win.
While Pacquiao was stunned after suffering his first defeat since he lost to Erik Morales in Las Vegas in March 2005, he took the decision with good grace at the time.
He went on to lose his next fight, a sixth-round knockout at the hands of Mexican Juan Manuel Marquez in December 2012 which prompted retirement talks.
However the Filipino rebounded two months ago with a decisive, unanimous decision victory against American Brandon Rios in Macau, improving his career record to 55-5-2 with 38 knockouts.
"The only way Bradley can beat me this time is to knock me out," said the 35-year-old Pacquiao, an eight-division world champion. "He cannot outbox me. I will be the aggressor.
"I will throw a lot of punches at him - more than I threw against Rios - and I will land them. Last time I was too nice. This time, I will finish what I start."
"Desert Storm" Bradley won his most recent fight in October, beating Mexico's three-division world champion Marquez on a split decision in Las Vegas after a display that captured the attention of Pacquiao's trainer Freddie Roach.
"Tim Bradley is one of the toughest guys in the world and I saw that up close when he fought Ruslan Provodnikov last year," said Roach, who worked Provodnikov's corner that night.
"Tim looked even better in beating Marquez in his last fight. Tim is the champion and Manny and I know we have our work cut out for us to successfully challenge him."

Amountsthatcount needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 47 designs submitted by 25 freelance designers.
I need a logo designed for a book keeping business. The design could involve numbers actual numbers, like 1 2 3 and chaos. At the same time it must look professional, modern and funky all at the same time. Needs to convey the meaning of the business name amounts that count - the bookkeeping service we provide.
Amounts that Count
I am looking for a logo for a book keeping business, the name is amounts that count, is suppose to mean we do the books / accounts for business owners, we believe the amounts count, I want to convey chaos of numbers because in most cases business owners find their accounts are in a mess, our business believes the amounts are important, it is important to have accurate accounts and tame the chaos... so the logo needs to reflect that this is what we do.
Tagline: Bookkeepers of balanced books
Main color RED, but happy to have other colors... at this stage no preference for colours. I would like to use fonts that are professional like accounting style of font, like times roman, but not necessary times roman something like that. I want the business name, to also be depicted by some sort of picture, ie flying numbers? But not necssarily flying numbers but some sort of picture that depicts chaos...also something that depicts amounts that count, I like the logos that have a catchy, image that also conveys what the business does. The image is very important part of this design.
Do not like clip art, or the typical image of books as associated with bookkeeping, nothing tacky must look professional.

At some point, is one too old to bother paying off a debt?
Consider this Kansas couple saddled with $120,000 in debt on 13 credit cards. Jim Bostick, then 68, and his wife Francine, then 57, feared they'd spend their golden years in the red. Then "Jim was diagnosed with Alzheimer's and I knew he wouldn't be able to continue working," Francine says in this interview with The National Foundation for Credit Counseling. "With the debt that we had there was no way we could pay it. I lay awake at night," she says.
The couple finally took action. Francine reached out to the non-profit Housing and Credit Counseling Inc. in Topeka, Kan., a member of the national foundation. In addition to her full-time job, she took an evening cleaning job and launched her own Avon business. Despite his condition, Jim, who was a maintenance and custodial supervisor at Kansas State University, worked 30 hours per week to help the couple stick to their household budget and $2,500 a month repayment plan. "It was probably the greatest thing I ever did," Francine says.
But was it the smartest?
Based on their age, they should have explored filing for bankruptcy, some experts say. "I think the couple did the ethical thing, but it probably was not in their financial best interest to do what they did, especially at their age," says Wade Westhoff, a financial adviser based in Danville, Calif. Couples facing retirement – especially if they have already paid off their mortgage – have less reason to worry about the impact of a bad credit rating, he says. "They could have wiped the slate clean."
The Bosticks were offered bankruptcy as one solution, says Marilyn Stanley, COO of the Housing and Credit Counseling Inc., but they chose not take that route. (The organization typically charges a maximum of $45 for counseling services over a six-month period, she says, although it doesn't turn away people who are unable to pay.) "Bankruptcy is used as a management tool for some people," Stanley says. "but the Bosnicks felt responsible for their debt."
Others agree that the Bosticks took the only right course of action. "If people in debt don't pay it off you and I will have higher fees and interest rates," says financial adviser David Hefty, CEO of Hefty Wealth Partners in Auburn, Ind. Plus, he says, the Bosticks didn't have any medical emergency. "Everyone wants nice things," Francine says; "we used credit cards to get them."
For their fortitude, the Bosticks were named "Clients of the Year" by the NFCC.

Corrientes GRAND SLAM | 22 - 26 May 2013
Corrientes, Argentina, May 24, 2013—As the sun started to shine more than in the first two days of the competition, men's teams at the $440,000 FIVB Corrientes Grand Slam double-gender tournament completed pool play early Friday afternoon with their last of three matches. Later Friday afternoon the top 24 teams from the 32-team pool play will advance to the single-elimination bracket and play the first round.
Winning the eight pools and earning a bye in the first elimination round were three teams from Brazil, two from Italy and one each from Czech Republic, Latvia and Poland. With the event being held for the first time in Corrientes, it continues through Sunday at the purpose-built site that is located on the sands of Arazati Beach – Costanera Sur.
The five men's teams advancing undefeated with 3-0 records in pool play to lead their respective groups were Brazilian duos Alison Cerutti/Emanuel Rego, Brazil's Vitor Felipe/Evandro Goncalves, Czech Republic's Robert Kufa/Jan Hadrava, Latvia's Aleksandrs Samoilovs/Janis Smedins and Poland's Mariusz Prudel/Grzegorz Fijalek.
With 2-1 pool marks, the three other men's pool winners were Brazil's Bruno Schmidt/Pedro Salgado, Italy's Paolo Nicolai/Daniele Lupo and Italian brothers Paolo Ingrosso/Matteo Ingrosso.
Both Brazil's Felipe/Goncalves and Italy's Ingrosso brothers advanced to pool play by each winning two qualification tournament matches on Wednesday. While they went from the qualifier to winning their pools, an FIVB record was set that for the first time all eight teams that advanced from the qualifier made it into the elimination rounds of an FIVB Grand Slam.
The lighted stadium court has been built to seat 7,500 spectators. After playing one elimination round today, the men will play three more rounds Saturday with their last matches on Sunday. The women's semifinals and medal matches will be held on Saturday as well with the men's semifinals and medal matches closing the tournament on Sunday. Play will start at 9 a.m. Saturday local time and at 2:30 p.m. local time on Sunday for the men's final four matches.
Brazil's Felipe/Goncalves, who came through Wednesday's qualification tournament with two wins and are in their rookie season on the FIVB World Tour, had two of the biggest seed breakthroughs on Thursday against higher seeded teams from their own country and Germany and followed that with a third upset Friday morning beating a team from Latvia. The 28th-seeded Brazilians started main draw play Thursday by knocking off 12th-seeded compatriots Ricardo Santos/Alvaro Filho and defeating Germany's fifth-seeded Jonathan Erdmann/Kay Matysik.
On Friday morning Brazil's Felipe/Goncalves earned their advancement with a remarkable one hour, eight-minute match where they defeated Latvia's 21st-seeded Martins Plavins/Janis Peda in three grueling sets, 21-11, 19-21 and 29-27 in the tiebreaker. Winning the longest match in the tournament so far, they remained undefeated in Argentina with a 5-0 record. Their match was the longest in the tournament so far.
To the delight of their home-country fans, two Argentinean men's teams advanced to the single-elimination rounds with 1-2 record in their respective pools. Advancing to this afternoon's first round of eliminations are Argentina's Ian Mehamed/Julian Azaad and Pablo Bianchi/Pablo Suarez. On Thursday, Mehamed/Azaad pulled off a major upset in defeating Germany's 2012 Olympic gold medalist Julius Brink and his new partner Sebastian Fuchs.
After missing the first two events on the 2013 FIVB calendar because of an injury to Alison, Brazil's 2011 FIVB World Champions Alison/Emanuel appear to be quickly regaining their talented teamwork as the won three pool play matches in impressive style. They capped their pool play Friday morning by defeating USA's Nick Lucena/Bradley Keenan 21-15, 21-15 in just 32 minutes.
Among the other teams advancing undefeated from pool play was Polish Olympians Prudel/Fijalek. With Poland hosting the FIVB Beach Volleyball World Championships in July in Stare Jablonki, more intense focus is on the athletes from Poland as the host country and Prudel/Fijalek have displayed their ability to handle the pressure in Argentina with their three pool play wins. Winning all three matches so far in two sets each, the earned their first round bye this afternoon by holding off Netherlands' Daan Spijkers/Christian Varenhorst, 27-25, 21-17 in 46 minutes.
Fijalek commented after this morning's match, "We are concentrating on next game and trying to find our best game. This year we want to play very good in every event, and our big goal this year is FIVB World Championship which is in Poland."
The gold medal teams in each gender in the FIVB Corrientes Grand Slam will each split $33,000, the silver $22,000, the bronze $16,500 and fourth place $12,900. The women's medal matches will be held on Saturday and the men's medal matches on Sunday. The FIVB Corrientes Grand Slam will be the 286th FIVB men's event since the FIVB began play in 1989 and the 248th FIVB women's tournament since they started in 1992.

Find campgrounds. Campgrounds provide information about camping, tent camping, ReserveAmerica, KOA, RV resorts, campsites, and cabins.
Campgrounds are designated locations that allow for temporary outdoor living, generally involving overnight stays. Campgrounds may be publicly or privately owned.
There are approximately 11,400 public Campgrounds in the United States, which are managed by federal, state, or local government agencies. Most of these Campgrounds are located in state or national forests and parks. Campgrounds on federal lands are usually managed by the National Parks Service, the National Forest Service, or the Bureau of Land Management. Campgrounds on state lands are most often managed by the state's conservation or environmental agency responsible for state parks.
Privately owned Campgrounds can be found in every state. Kampgrounds of America (KOA), for example, owns approximately 500 Campgrounds throughout the U.S. Most private Campgrounds are either Recreational Vehicle Parks or Campground Resorts. Privately owned Campgrounds also include membership-based Campgrounds.
The amenities available at Campgrounds vary greatly and help determine the fees charged for using the facility. In addition to tent sites, many Campgrounds feature cabins or similar structures for visitors, usually at an additional cost. The least developed Campgrounds, sometimes referred to as Primitive Campgrounds, provide little more than space to pitch a tent and outhouses with pit toilets. Additional amenities often include fire pits or grills for cooking, picnic tables, site lighting, garbage cans, potable water, and platforms or pads for tents. Convenience stores and bathrooms with flush toilets and showers are not uncommon at Campgrounds. Some Campgrounds may run programs and activities or provide access to on-site recreational equipment rentals, such as bikes, kayaks, or sporting supplies. Campgrounds in national or state parks and forests often have a Park Ranger on site.
Recreational Vehicle Parks, or RV Parks, have specialized features including concrete pads individually marked off for RVs and campers, water and electricity hookups, and underground waste disposal.
Campground Resorts are privately owned campgrounds that offer numerous additional features not typically found in public Campgrounds. Visitors to Campground Resorts have access to spas, clubhouses, pools, game rooms, and other amenities. Tent sites are rarely offered at Campground Resorts.

sopeeck brauchte ein neues Logo Design und hat einen Wettbewerb auf 99designs gestartet.
Aus 21 Designs von 9 Designern wurde eine Gewinner gewählt.
I am designing a website / blog for to make a documentation of a friend's motorcycle trip to Africa. We need an illustrated logo for the project's blog and other related topics to the project (merchandizing / shirts).
A Social Way Down
A Social Way Down is a project to bestarted in spring 2010. Inspired by A Long Way Down (=> Ewan McGregor) there will be a bike trip from Germany to South Africa. Within the 5-6 months of the trip charity projects will be visited to raise funds for those charity projects.
Charity Organisations, Companies who are willing to donate for the projects, people who are willing to make donations
We need a logo for integrating it into the a wordpress theme (which does not have to be designed) and using it later for shirts (so please provide hi-res AI for further use).
The projects is about a motorcycle trip from Germany to South Africa. This trip will take about 6 month was sort of inspired by Ewan McGregors "A Long Way Down" but will have a special feature: in cooperation with betterplace.org funds will be raised for charity projects in Africa.
So we need something that puts together the aspects of charity / fundraising and motorcylce trips / travelling around Africa
We need a logo which for the start can be used as a part of a website / wordpress blog header. This header will contain images of African landscapes
The logo should also be suitable for using it for t-shirts / merchandise later (=> hi-res AI files)
We are rather open minded about how the logo should look like but the logo should be rather an illustration than something containing pictures.
Keep in mind this is about a motorcycle trip, Africa, charity projects and we are also trying to convince (german) companies to donate for our projects so this is rather an "official" issue and the design should reflect this issue.
If you have questions feel free to send me a message I will reply ASAP and edit the briefing to make it clearer.
We are rather open minded about what the logo could look like but we prefer a simple layout
- clean, simple
- not too colorful
- to be used as a logo on the website
- to be used on shirts / merchandize
- something related to the topics of Motorcycle Trip, Charity, Africa (not necessarily all elements)
- direct use of images (=> pictures, illustrations are okay)
- this is about charity and helping people but please don't use images/ illustrations showing poor / starving children
- just the line "A Social Way Down" in a standard font
- biker / rocker styling

The recovery of a stolen Mercedes-Benz by Irvine police this week has led to the arrest of four people, including a man they believe was involved in multiple car thefts and burglaries in Irvine, police announced.
Officers saw a Mercedes-Benz with a paper license plate speeding on Lake Forest Drive at about 2:30 a.m. Wednesday and followed it into a neighborhood where the driver and two passengers pulled into a residential driveway, turned off the headlights and ducked down, according to a release from the Irvine Police Department.
As officers approached, the driver, who police identified as Michael Harding, 34, started the engine and rapidly backed out of the driveway. Harding and two female passengers quickly abandoned the vehicle in another nearby driveway, the release stated.
Responding authorities arrested one of the passengers, Sarah Faas, 31, in a nearby backyard on suspicion of possessing drug paraphernalia. The other was found at a bus stop by an Orange County sheriff's deputy and detained but released without charges.
The Mercedes-Benz had been reported stolen from Panorama City in September, and when Irvine police searched it, they found more than a dozen California drivers' licenses, 60 credit cards from about 20 different people, burglary tools and forged identification.
A detective also found a fake ID for Harding, whom he recognized as a suspect in a vehicle theft in September near Sand Canyon Avenue and the San Diego (405) Freeway, according to the release.
Police said they pegged Harding as a suspect after he used a credit card that was left in the stolen vehicle.
Officers arrested Harding at about 3:30 p.m. Wednesday at a shopping center near where he allegedly stole the car. He was meeting James Deroze, 27, a parolee, who was also arrested on suspicion of possessing a fake ID, booked in Orange County Jail and held on $20,000 bail, police said.
Harding was arrested on suspicion of vehicle theft, vehicle burglary, commercial burglary, possession of stolen property, resisting arrest, fraudulent use of a credit card and possession of burglary tools. He is also being held on two outstanding warrants for alleged burglaries in San Diego County.
Irvine police said they believe Harding is involved in at least one more car theft in Orange County and one more vehicle burglary in Irvine.
Police also contacted Phillip Alano, an alleged associate of Harding, whom they arrested on suspicion of identity-theft related crimes. He is being held at Orange County Jail on $20,000 bail, according to the release.

Meng is being challenged in the race by Councilman Dan Halloran, who is running on the Republican line.
But just a short two months ago, Meng wasn't good enough for Koch, or rather he liked someone else a lot better. In the four-way Democratic Primary in June, Koch instead endorsed Assemblyman Rory Lancman over Meng.
At the time, Koch said that he supported Lancman because he was the candidate that had the most support for Israel, which is pretty much the same thing he is saying again.
In a statement before the endorsement, which took place on the steps of City Hall, Koch criticized Halloran for his past support of Ron Paul, who during his recent presidential bid made headlines when he said he would support cutting foreign aid to Israel.
"Mr. Halloran's support for Ron Paul's presidential candidacy is a clear indication that he does not prioritize the sacred bond between the United States and Israel," Koch's statement read.
Support for Israel seems to be about the only thing Mr. Queensboro Bridge considers as a factor when choosing who to endorse.
Back in a 2011 special election, Mr. Q.B. chose to endorse Republican Bob Turner over fellow Democrat David Weprin for Congress as some sort of protest about the Obama Administration's policies toward Israel.
Although, we guess it worked…Turner defeated Weprin and served a short stint in Washington before his seat was eliminated due to redistricting.
For his part, Halloran has said that he agrees with Paul's economic policies, but disagrees with him on foreign policy. And to prove he's serious, Halloran is actually traveling in Israel right now.
We don't know what says "support" quite like a working vacation.
Going both ways
Speaking of joining the winners (at least when it comes to mayor in recent decades)…
Queens Democratic State Senator Malcolm Smith reportedly met with several of the city's GOP leaders – including Bronx GOP Chair Jay Savino and Manhattan GOP Chair Jay Isaacs - on Monday night at a steakhouse in Spanish Harlem about running on the Republican line in the upcoming mayoral election.
According to published reports, Smith reached out to the GOP leaders, not the other way around.
We're not sure how serious to take all of these rumors about Smith actually running for mayor as a Republican. But regardless, all of this sneaking around with the other side can't be making leaders in the Queens Democratic Party too happy.
Smith has been a fairly prominent official in the Democratic Party. Until the coup that saw two Democratic state senators jump ship and vote with Albany Republicans, bringing an already dysfunctional government to a complete standstill, Smith had been the first-ever African American Senate Majority Leader.
Ironically, now he is the one that is considering switching party affiliations and making the Democrats bid to regain the mayor's office for the first time since 1994 all the more complicated.
If Smith did indeed run, he would siphon off votes in Democratic strongholds, most notably the area he currently represents, southeast Queens, which voted overwhelmingly for Bill Thompson when he challenged Mayor Michael Bloomberg in 2010.
Which is probably the pitch that Smith is making to the GOP leaders: that he can get votes in neighborhoods that have traditionally voted staunchly Democratic.
The question is, do they think that Smith can get the support of neighborhoods and demographics that have tended to cross party lines and have kept Republicans in the most important seat in city government for the past two decades?

New alert system in place
November 6, 2012
The Park City School District has big plans in the works for its new online alert system. Whether its updating parents on school closures, alerting them in the wake of an earthquake or other natural disaster or simply informing parents of an upcoming school event, the new system offers more features to stay in touch with parents and students.
The new system is replacing the older version, where the district had limited options on how to contact parents. Before, the system would only send messages to those registered, and the system would not allow for filters such as notifications by school or class.
"We've been talking about a new system since I've been here, and that was three and half years ago," said Kevin Orgill, the Safety and Security Coordinator for the Park City School District. "This notification system will do a lot of the different things we want it to. The new school messenger has bells and whistles that would make us more effective. This is not just for emergencies."
Whether there is a heavy storm that comes in and the district needs to cancel school or a situation arises on I-80 where children need to be moved, the system will be able to target the right parents using information given at registration.
"This system reaches out to parents," Orgill said, "telling them what is happening."
"It could even do event notification," he added. "It has the potential, but that depends on how much it is used and will be something we can look at more once the system is fully in place."

While the program is still under development the emergency notifications system is in place and operational it will still be a few months before the whole system will be up and running. But with the new system comes improved communication not just between the district and parents, but even teachers and parents.
The new program overlaps with an older system, PowerSchool, a grading system used by teachers in the district. Through that same program, teachers will be able to message parents and students directly. Every parent will be automatically enrolled to receive updates when they register students, using email, text or phone messages through the provided information. Students are also able to register to receive alerts and notifications.
"The system we had in effect before was limited," Orgill said. "The contacts we had were only those that voluntarily called in. It was limited resource, who we had in pool to contact. We also didn't have ability to isolate to certain school, so one message went out to the entire school district.
"This new system is better at isolating people we want for a specific message. We don't want people getting several notifications a week that did not apply to them. With this upgrade, we'll be also to use it a lot more."

More Justin Bieber Blunt Photos for Sale, Someone Else Pulled Over Driving His White Ferrari
Blunts and Ferraris remain a part of Justin Bieber news.
The singer and his wheels seem to be in near-constant trouble and garnering negative publicity lately. Apparently, more photos of the singer with a blunt are being shopped and the white Ferrari was pulled over yet again.
In the photos, The Biebs and a friend named Lil Za are reportedly seen passing a blunt back and forth outside of Los Angeles residency, according to TMZ. The photos were said to be taken on Thursday, Jan. 31.
And a day after it was revealed that the Four Seasons Hotel would be picking up the tab for the nearly 10 grand in damage that Bieber's pal Lil Twist caused to the white Ferrari he was driving, cops pulled the vehicle over. Lil Za was said to be driving the ride without a license this morning (Feb. 1).
So first it was Biebs and Lil Twist with blunts and causing trouble in the Ferrari. Now, it's The Biebs and Lil Za. Maybe he needs to rethink his friendships with people name Lil right now because they are causing him nothing but trouble.
E! confirmed that The Biebs was not behind-the-wheel. A woman was in the passenger's seat. The car was pulled over at around 12:30AM on Sunset Blvd., where the driver, which TMZ claims was Za, was cited. A man arrived in an SUV, parked at a gas station and picked up the Ferrari and the occupants.
Biebs, Biebs, Biebs, this stuff stains you. Stop hanging with people who can't or shouldn't be driving your ride.
