Nail Up! inspired Minx manicure
I wore this yesterday when I went to a fabulous blogger meetup organised by lovely Tara from Keeping Up With Me. It was awesome to finally meet the lovely Sydney blogger ladies Jenny from My Funny Valentine, Anita from Love Vulcanella and Kimmi from The Plastic Diaries in the flesh after reading their wonderful blogs and talking to them on Twitter!! The day went by FAR too quickly and I'm so excited for the next meetup which will hopefully be very soon! Jenny wrote a great post with some gorgeous pics of what we got up to here.
The inspiration below for my mani. I didn't have all the elements that they used in the design unfortunately so as usual I did it with my own twist!
What I used:
Pinkies: I used 3 coats of China Glaze Lemon Fizz and applied a black star, silver and pink rhinestones.
Ring fingers: I used 2 coats of Ozotic Pro 604 (a gold scattered holo!!) and a few coats of Milani Jewel FX in gold.
Middle fingers: I used 2 coats of BYS Black Satin as a base. I then konaded full nail dots image from Konad plate m79 with white polish but it wasn't as opaque as I liked so I used a dotting tool and went over the dots with Nfu Oh acrylic paint in white.
Index fingers: I used 2 coats of China Glaze Something Sweet and then applied a black star and silver rhinestones and half pearls to the bottom of my nail.
Thumbs: Same design as middle fingers.
It didn't take me very long to do at all actually and I loved the result! The black and white polka dot would have to be my favourite and reminds me of a Minx design. Would you be interested in seeing me do some more inspired Japanese nail magazine manicures in the future? Many designs use acrylics which I can't do but the other designs are surprisingly doable! Let me know in the comments below what you think!
Thanks for looking as always! Don't forget to enter My Big Birthday Giveaway!

A decade after the U.S. invasion of Iraq, small groups of people across the country still carry signs to voice their opposition to the U.S.-led wars across the world.
Even though the war in Iraq officially ended in 2011, the war in Afghanistan continues.
Every Friday in Vermont's capital, a small group of protesters gathers in front of the post office. There are also protests in Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Colorado, California and other states.
Sixty-four-year-old John Snell of Montpelier says the protests are a reminder for everyone that the wars are still going on.

Byzantine Literature: New Voices and Current Approaches
The Poet as Guide
Emilie van Opstall
The starting point of my presentation will be an ecphrasis in dodecasyllable on the Church of Stoudios by John Geometres (10th century). In order to propose some thoughts on the interpretation of this somewhat puzzling poem, I will describe different aspects of ecphrasis in general and several examples of ecphraseis on buildings from Antiquity to the Middle Byzantine period. The main focus will be on techniques of presentation and on interpretation. I will take into consideration literary, archaeological and cultural aspects, posing questions like: how are things described? Who is the narrator, who is the narratee? What is the relation of the ecphrasis in question to the rest of the work (in the case of an embedded ecphrasis)? What about the relation of the ecphrasis to the reality outside the text: does it refer to a real building? What reaction to the described edifice is expected from the public? By discussing these examples, I will finally return to Geometres' poem and try to shed some light on its content and meaning.
Replotting the Axis: Byzantine Literature and the Three Levels of Style
Emmanuel C. Bourbouhakis
Though frequently adduced in general discussions and scholarship about Byzantine literature, 'style' remains an elusive term of analysis for philologists. When it is not simply joined to suggestive but otherwise imprecise adjectives ("florid", "ornate", "precious" are among the favourites for the 'artificial' prose of the 'best' authors), 'style' is customarily subject to the threefold classification virtually canonized in Byzantine philology by Ihor Ševčenko's classic article, 'Levels of Style in Byzantine Prose', now in its 26th year of abiding authority.
While it is not my aim to displace this long-standing vertical scheme, I should like to propose additional coordinates for the style of Byzantine prose texts which may not be disposed along a hierarchical axis; rather, as distinct elements of linguistic and literary features assembled in varying combinations intended to produce distinct effects. Drawing from my work on 12th century prose texts, I hope to show, in keeping with the spirit of Ihor Ševčenko's work, the need for profiling of the stylistic code of individual works in order to appreciate better the choices made by authors in particular genres, where the 'level' of style would have been a near foregone conclusion but the operative choices within any level often exhibit significant variation, refinement, and even innovation.
Grotesque Bodies in Edifying Tales: The Monstrous and the Uncanny in Byzantine Miracle Stories
Stavroula Constantinou
A religious theme, such as the temptations of Saint Antony, has become one of the most representative topics of the grotesque. Famous artists of the grotesque, Hieronymous Bosch, Matthias Grünewald and Salvador Dali, for instance, devoted to Antony's temptations at least one of their grotesque paintings. The original source of grotesque artistic representations of Antony's temptations is a religious text, Athanasius's Life of the saint where Antony is presented at the beginning of his religious career being violently attacked by monstrous figures, which almost kill him. The association of sanctity with the grotesque detected in a passage of Athanasius's work, and elaborated by later artists and writers, such as Gustave Flaubert, appears to pervade a considerable number of Byzantine hagiographical texts. In the present paper, I will examine the religious and other functions of the grotesque, its monstrosity, and uncanny nature as depicted in a specific category of hagiographical texts, the collection of miracle stories.
Historiography and handbooks in political context, c. 900–1150
Catherine Holmes
In a short article of 2003 on the Synopsis Historiarum of the eleventh-century historian John Scylitzes I made some tentative suggestions about common compositional techniques that can be observed in certain varieties of middle Byzantine historiography and the tenth-century military manuals (see below). Following leads established by Charlotte Roueché, I suggested that these commonalities owed much to the teaching and practice of rhetoric in the Byzantine empire; indeed, on that occasion I went as far as asking whether one could label these particular characteristics the 'rhetoric of synopsis'. In this paper I shall continue these lines of inquiry by considering the wider political and social contexts which may help to explain this particular use of Byzantine rhetoric. By looking closely at the intersection of a variety of synoptic texts, rhetoric and politics in the tenth to twelfth centuries this paper will argue that there was more room for political debate in Byzantium than is usually assumed; and, moreover, that political debate itself may be the key to understanding the composition and reception of different genres of synopsis.
Digenes and the Dragon: Indo-European Comparisons
Christopher Livanos
This paper discusses the decapitation of the dragon at the beginning of book six of the Grottaferrata version of Digenes Akrites as a symbolic genital mutilation performed out of guilt for the rape committed at the end of book five. Calvert Watkins' study of the dragon-slaying motif in Indo-European literature is used as a theoretical framework from which to approach the topic in Byzantine literature. The author argues that the slaying of the dragon represents not only the hero's triumph but also his self-defeat. Parallels with Western Literature, particularly Beowulf, are discussed. The paper points out that no variant of Watkins' formula, "The hero slew the serpent," is ever used with reference either to Digenes or to Beowulf. Though Watkins has discussed the formula in Beowulf, it is noteworthy that his only example is a reference to Sigemund which occurs in an embedded narrative. Thus the dragon-slaying episodes from both epics are best understood as instances of self-defeat. The paper argues that Digenes' symbolic self-mutilation foreshadows his childless death. Digenes and the Irish hero Cuchulainn are then compared as two figures who paradoxically live at the fringes, both morally and physically, of the societies they protect. It is significant that both die childless, leaving no heir to continue their role as defenders. In these respects, and in his erratic temperament, Digenes has more in common with Cuchulainn than with El Cid, with whom he has more commonly been compared.
Byzantine Mirrors: Fiction and Desire in Medieval Greek Writing
Estruatios Papaioannou
It has been recently argued that mirroring, especially self-mirroring, functions in the Greco-roman imagination as a metaphor of two distinct cultural practices. In this premodern conceptual world, mirroring is a sign of either a highly valued possibility for (self-) knowledge or a dangerous pursuit of (self-) deception (Bartsch 2006: The Mirror of the Self). The two practices are furthermore marked in gender-specific terms, knowledge being assigned to masculinity and deception to effeminacy.
This paper explores the history of this imagination of mirroring in Byzantine texts of imperial, theological, and literary rhetoric from the ninth through the twelfth centuries. I will argue that, while Byzantine writers continue the binary and gender-marked stance of their cultural past, they invest mirrors (whether as carriers of truth or of fiction) with an inescapable power to incite desire. They thus gradually begin to problematize the distance between truth and fiction, upset the primacy of the former over the latter, and, occasionally, value the desire for imagined–albeit deceptively reflective–worlds. In view of this, the discursive history of Byzantine mirrors belongs to the framework of a larger cultural development, namely the revival of Greek fictional writing and concepts of fictionality as they resurface in the cultural production of Medieval Byzantium.
Theodore Metochites' Poems "To Himself": Some literary questions
Christos Simelides
Theodore Metochites' (1270–1332) 20 poems (9,100 hexametres) have not been received favorably by scholars. With a very recent exception, the editions of his poems always provide a transcription with a translation, but never a scholarly apparatus, a basic philological introduction, or annotation. Some literary questions still await an answer. Are there any significant words or phrases among Metochites' vocabulary? Are there any indications of a poetic sensitivity in his verse? How serious are his prosodic errors? And, more generally, how should we read Metochites' poems? This paper focuses on his poems 'To Himself' and shows that an attempt to investigate Metochites' language, his borrowings, and his style, is not unrewarding.

We are a young and design-oriented POP firm. We have a slightly outdated website you can reference at http://www.richltd.com. We don't like this logo because it is dated and difficult to work with. A new tagline we have been working with is "California design. Global reach." We don't think it's necessary to include in the new logo, but it's an idea for the feel of the company. We don't really like our insignia, but we do have some brand recognition with it, so we'll need an updated take on the boxed aspect. We are looking to seperate out the insignia from our main typeface logo. For our typefaced logo, we want to drop the "merchandising solutions" tagline. We want to focus on the "RICH" aspect more than "LTD." We also think its a more modern look to spell out "LTD" as LIMITED.
 You can find examples of our logo at http://www.richltd.com/Rich_logos.pdf
Those are the paremeters, other than that, we are basically looking for a fresh, modern, take on an old logo.

FTC: Thumbs up for America's online child protection laws
COPPA bracelet
America's laws protecting children's privacy online are working just fine, according to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). But just to make sure, it will slap violators with bigger fines.
Signed into law in 2000, The Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) has seen the FTC bring just 12 companies to task over how they compile and use data collected from children aged 13 and under.
But in a progress report released today, the FTC said COPPA was "effective in helping to protect the privacy and safety of young children online".
More than half of the $1.8m in COPPA fines levied to date comes from September's settlement with the social network Xanga, which had collected and disclosed personal data from children without parental consent. The FTC offers websites "safe harbor" from prosecution if they voluntarily adopt COPPA's rules.
The FTC stresses the need for sites pitched at a general audience to redouble age verification efforts, as they can fall foul of COPPA if they have knowledge that children's data may be being collected, used or disclosed to other parties. Last month, for example, MySpace answered complaints over the ease with which pedophiles and other sexual predators roamed the site, by promising to let parents monitor their children's activities. But such a move is not enough to absolve it of COPPA responsibilities.
Some fringe critics say COPPA stomps children's Constitutional rights, but this has never been tested in the courts. According to the FTC, there is no evidence the Act has reduced diversity of or access to websites for children.
The FTC began its review in 2005 with a call for evidence from industry, interest groups and the public.
In a joint submission, the Electronic Privacy Information Center, Consumer Federation of America, and others urged the FTC to clarify its rules on what constitutes a website "directed at children" under the terms of the Act.
The legal eagles at Redmond find COPPA something of a minefield too: in its submission Microsoft also pushed for clarification. The FTC rejects this call in its recommendations to Congress.
By contrast, The Direct Marketing Association and Nickelodeon children's said COPPA is clear enough as it stands. You can find the submissions here.
Confusingly, COPPA's near-namesake the Child Online Protection Act (COPA), which related to internet pornography, was struck down by the Supreme Court as unconstitutional in 2004. ®

David F. Powers, whose loyalty, sense of humor and contacts throughout Boston's Irish community made him a close friend and aide to John F. Kennedy and a fixture at the Kennedy White House, died today at the Symmes Medical Center in Arlington, Mass. He was 85.
He died of cardiac arrest, said Tom McNaught, a spokesman for the John F. Kennedy Library in Boston, where Mr. Powers was the museum curator from 1965 until he retired in 1994.
Senator Edward M. Kennedy, Democrat of Massachusetts, said in a written statement, ''Jack loved Dave Powers like a brother, and so did all of us in the Kennedy family.''
The son of immigrants from County Cork, Ireland, David Francis Powers was born on April 25, 1912, in the Charlestown section of Boston, a waterfront district of three-decker tenements. His father died when he was 2, and at age 10 David got a job as a newsboy, a position that he later said helped him get to know nearly everyone in the area. After graduating from high school, he held a variety of jobs and attended college at night before joining the Army Air Force in 1942. He served for three years in Asia before being discharged at the end of World War II as a master sergeant.
While baby-sitting for his widowed sister's children back in Charlestown one night in 1946, Mr. Powers answered a knock on the door.
''In the semidarkness I could see this tall, thin, handsome fellow,'' Mr. Powers later recounted, ''and he reached out his hand and said, 'My name is Jack Kennedy. I am a candidate for Congress. Will you help me?' ''
Mr. Powers and the young politician hit it off immediately, and Mr. Powers's intimate knowledge of the neighborhood and its residents -- in addition to having been its newsboy, he ushered at five Masses every Sunday at St. Catherine's Church -- was a gold mine for Kennedy.
When Kennedy went to Washington, Mr. Powers remained in Boston, where he worked for the city housing authority and the state housing board. But Mr. Powers worked on each of Kennedy's subsequent campaigns, for the House, the Senate and then the Presidency.
After winning the 1960 election, Kennedy named Mr. Powers a special assistant in the White House. His ostensible job was to greet visitors and escort them to the President, a role that he filled with sometimes startling unpretentiousness and lack of formality. He introduced Prime Minister Harold Macmillan of Britain as ''the greatest name in England,'' and to the Shah of Iran he said, ''I want you to know you're my kind of Shah.''
But his real role was First Friend, someone with no agenda of his own who could share a silence, reel off baseball and football statistics or make Kennedy laugh with one of his endless supply of tales and jokes.
In his 1993 biography, ''President Kennedy: Portrait of Power,'' Richard Reeves described a moment in the Cuban missile crisis when Mr. Powers was eating roast chicken with the President upstairs in the White House as Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy came in with a downbeat assessment of the situation. Mr. Powers continued eating.
''God, Dave, the way you're eating up all that chicken and drinking up all my wine, anybody would think it was your last meal,'' the President said in Mr. Reeves's account.
''The way Bobby's been talking,'' Mr. Powers replied, ''I thought it was my last meal.''
For all his intimacy with the President, Mr. Powers never exaggerated his influence or ran from his occasional role as glorified butler. Asked once about the most difficult moment he had faced in politics, he replied with a story about forgetting to bring black shoes to go with Kennedy's blue suit in the Democratic National Convention in 1952, forcing Kennedy to make a televised speech in brown shoes.
''And after it was over,'' Mr. Powers said later, ''to help him relax, I said, 'Mr. Senator, that was a brown shoe crowd if I ever saw one.' ''
Mr. Powers was in the motorcade in Dallas when Kennedy was killed, and after the assassination, Mr. Powers remained close to the Kennedy family, visiting often with the slain President's children, Caroline and John F. Kennedy Jr.
He went on to assemble and catalogue thousands of pieces of Kennedy memorabilia and to raise money for the library, which opened in 1979. In 1970, Mr. Powers, Kenneth P. O'Donnell and Joe McCarthy wrote ''Johnny, We Hardly Knew Ye,'' a nostalgic biography of Kennedy.
Mr. Powers is survived by his wife, Jo, of Arlington, Mass.; a son, David, of Andover, Mass.; two daughters, Mary Jo, of Falmouth, Mass., and Diane, of Maine, and three grandchildren.

Greenpeace volunteers fly peace doves for the 60th anniversary of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima.
Although some may consider them an unfortunate relic from the Cold War, the truth is that the nuclear weapons states are clinging to them as hard as they can, reinventing new roles and designs for them, and recently even proposals for "smaller useable" weapons. And all this despite plenty of speeches, promises and legally binding treaties toget rid of them!
As well as the devestating impacts of the nuclear bombs on the cities and peoples of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, over 2,000 nuclear weapons tests have left a legacy of global and regional contamination. People living near the test sites have suffered from cancers, still births, miscarriages and other health effects -- and are still suffering today.
Greenpeace has been shouting about nuclear dangers for over 30 years, beginning on 15 September 1971, when a group of North American peace activists chartered an old trawler named "Phyllis Cormack" and sailed from Vancouver towards the US nuclear testing zone near Amchitka, Alaska. The Greenpeace ship and crew were arrested by the US coastguard, but the press reports about the expedition put pressure on the US government. Four months later, the US canceled the test series.
Since then we have campaigned against both nuclear weapons and nuclear power. Bearing witness in test zones, supplying scientific data and measurements on human and environmental impacts and by conducting direct non-violent actions to call attention to the problem.
Not even the sinking of our flagship the Rainbow Warrior en route to the Moruroa test site by the French Secret Service in 1985 stopped Greenpeace's anti-nuclear activism. Since then, we have tracked plutonium and nuclear waste shipments around the globe, highlighted the dangers of reprocessing, protested against nuclear-powered and nuclear-armed warships or submarines and confronted the nuclear weapons states about their weapons programmes.
And people are with us: the majority of people and states want disarmament now!
We can stop the nuclear threat with the voice of the second superpower: public opinion. And that voice is getting louder and louder. Public opinion polls conducted in nuclear and non-nuclear weapon statesshow large majorities favouring the abolition of nuclear weapons:
A survey carried out in 1997 by Lake, Sosin and Snell said in the US found that 87% of those polled felt, "the US should negotiate anagreement to eliminate nuclear weapons."
A poll carried out by MORI in 2005, on behalf of Greenpeace, showed a majority (54%) of the British public oppose the development of a new nuclear weapons system. Only one in three (33%) support their development.
In 1998, 61% of Russians polled by Vox Populi commissioned by TASS said, "All nuclear weapons states should eliminate such weapons."
62% of Indians polled by The Hindu in 1998 said, "India should not produce nuclear bombs."
In a Japanese poll by Asahi Shimbun in 1998 78% agreed that, "all nuclear weapons states should eliminate such weapons."
A resounding 92% of Australians polled by Roy Morgan Research Co. in 1998 agreed, "Australia should help negotiate a global treaty to ban and destroy all nuclear weapons."
Similarly 92% of Norwegians polled in 1998 by 4 fakta A/S agreed "Norway should work actively for a ban on nuclear weapons.
72% of Belgian polled in 1998 by Market Response said they were for "an initiative on behalf of Belgium with an aim of initiating talks concerning a treaty for the abolition of nuclear weapons''.
93% of Canadians polled in 1998 by the Angus Reid Group agreed that, "Canada should take a leadership role in global negotiations to eliminate nuclear weapons."
In 2004, an Infakto poll, commissioned by Greenpeace, found that 72% of Turkish people supported the idea of making Turkey a nuclear-free zoneand 75% would support Turkey leading an international campaign for international nuclear disarmament.
And every year at the United Nations when all governments vote, we see the vast majority of the 191countries voting for the abolition of nuclear weapons. Citizens in nuclear weapons states should question why their leaders feel so entitled to gamble with their lives.

I received a message that the icons for unread vs. read posts are so similar that they look the same to colorblind users. I quickly replaced the "unread" icons with images from a different design ("milky way"), and that helped. However, the new images weren't the same size, so it looked a bit odd together with the rest of the original images ("prosilver").
I've now replaced the imageset once more. The site now uses the original design "prosilver" but with the complete imageset from "KS_Serious", so we're not mixing imagesets anymore. I've tested the new imageset for colorless contrast and I'm satisfied with this look, but I'm always open to additional feedback.
If you see any problems, please send me feedback. Either send me PM or post here. I'll see it either way and work on a solution!

|Advance Guard
|Organisation information
To bring Harry Potter to the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix
- "A surprising amount of people volunteered to come and get you."
- —Remus Lupin[src]
The Advance Guard were the members of the Order of the Phoenix that retrieved Harry Potter from 4 Privet Drive and escorted him to 12 Grimmauld Place in 1995. This was done to provide Harry with a more secure environment after a pair of Dementors attacked him and Dudley Dursley in Little Whinging.
Members of the Advance GuardEdit
- Alastor Moody
- Remus Lupin
- Kingsley Shacklebolt
- Nymphadora Tonks
- Emmeline Vance
- Elphias Doge
- Dedalus Diggle
- Hestia Jones
- Sturgis Podmore
The EscortEdit
- "Stay in formation, everyone. Don't break ranks if one of us gets killed."
- —Alastor Moody talking to the Advance Guard before taking off.[src]
Prior to its arrival, the Advance Guard lured the Dursley family away from their house. Nymphadora Tonks fabricated a letter informing them that they were among the finalists for the All-England Best-Kept Lawn competition, and the family was heading to the awards ceremony when the Advance Guard arrived at 4 Privet Drive.
- Moody: "We ought to double back for a bit, just to make sure we're not being followed!"
- Tonks: "ARE YOU MAD, MAD-EYE? We're all frozen to our brooms! If we keep going off course we're not going to get there until next week!"
- — Moody and Tonks while escorting Harry to 12 Grimmauld Place[src]
Out of the group, Harry only knew Lupin from before, and had spoken to the real Alastor Moody and Dedalus Diggle only briefly. This was Harry's first meeting with the remaining members, most notably Nymphadora Tonks and Kingsley Shacklebolt.
The Advance Guard and Harry travelled to Grimmauld Place by Broomstick, flying in formation with Tonks flying in front of Harry, Lupin underneath, Moody behind and the rest circling. There was a rear guard set up, so that if anything happened to the advance guard, the rear guard could take over, but this was, fortunately, not required.
Alastor Moody suggested the entire group travel above cloud level for better concealment, but he was overruled by Nymphadora Tonks, who protested they would get soaked. Later, he also suggested that they double back to ensure that they were not being followed, but Tonks once again screamed at him, and the group was saved by their arrival at Grimmauld Place.
Gallery of MembersEdit
Behind the scenesEdit
- Lupin, Podmore, Jones and Diggle were not a part of the Advance Guard in the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, and the latter three did not appear in the film at all. The only other person other than Lupin that Harry recognised was Moody. But given that Harry only met Barty Crouch Jr. impersonating Moody, he would not be someone Harry would trust. Furthermore Harry calls him "Professor Moody" even though it wasn't him the previous year.
- "Advance Guard" is the title of a chapter in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
- It is shown in the film adaption of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix that the members crossed over River Thames in London.
- Hestia Jones and Sturgis Podmore are the only members of the Advance Guard to not appear in any of the films. Podmore is the only one who appears in neither the films nor the video games.
- In an early script for the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, the Advance Guard are besieged by a pair of Dementors (possibly the same ones that attacked Harry and Dudley earlier that night) en route to Grimmauld Place. Moody and Tonks would have escorted Harry safely to Grimmauld Place, with the rest of the guard arriving shortly after once the Dementors were driven off. The same script also consistently and incorrectly refers to them as the "advanced guard".[1]

In February 2016 two Steppe Whimbrels Numenius phaeopus alboaxillaris were found in Maputo, Mozambique, drawing attention to this little-known bird that was once thought to be extinct. Their distinctiveness in the field (see right bird on picture together with "normal" Whimbrel) has led to a global taxonomy project that is re-examining the Whimbrel and its close relatives. alboaxillaris may be more than 'just' a subspecies, but it is so little known that it is hard to draw definite conclusions. Gary Allport shares recordings that document the birds in Mozambique.

.... about one quarter of the huge batch of Humboldt recordings that we are bringing on-line has now been uploaded, in 9 smaller batches. Plenty to look out for still !
.... yes. We've adopted a handful more Grasshoppers. Sign of more fundamental changes to come at some point in the hopefully not too distant future.
.... massive numbers of recordings coming in these days. Great! With major contributions by Stanislas Wroza (France) and James Lidster (various places). Also a steady trickle from Australia by Marc Anderson, always useful to calibrate your feeling of what constitutes an "A" quality recording.. Thanks for sharing everyone! Keep recording!
... the incredible Todd Mark adds three species new to XC: Black-capped Catbird, Streaked Bowerbird & Dwarf Cassowary. All from Papua New-Guinea. Thanks for sharing, Todd!!
Thanks for the shoutout. Just uploaded the Rossel Cicadabird, a good candidate for species-level elevation. Quite a different song. Seems like the male song of the Australian, New Guinea, and Solomon Island pops have the same quality. It appears there are at least 3 more male song types: those of Halmahera/Sulawesi, Biak/Numfor, and PNG incertum. Also, Australia appears to have two. Still no male song for New Britain/New Ireland and Timor. Interesting group of great speciator.
....... I seem to remember you had a picture of the bower of Streaked Bowerbird? if so, we could make a nice spotlight. Drop us a line.
Kudos to Todd. I accompanied him several times and it was a treat to watch him in action.

Visit Vocations Toronto at www.vocationstoronto.ca, a resourceful site in answering these questions.
This truth about ourselves should not discourage us. All we ever need to do is see the truth about ourselves and ask God to pardon us and heal us - and God is there for us.
The first reading today from the Prophet Isaiah tells us the background of this story of the vineyard. This is the same in every age of history. We should not think that because we have seen the Lord, that we are different. We may know God?s love for us in Christ Jesus, but we still find ourselves as sinners.
When we hear the second reading, from the Letter to the Philippians, we can find some comfort: Have no anxiety at all, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, make your requests known to God. Then the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
This is our spiritual life: the following of Jesus. As we follow Jesus, we find that we betray Him. Yet we know His forgiveness. Never should we think that our Christian life is simply a life of suffering and of sin. Rather, we live lives that are redeemed in Christ Jesus our Lord.
The Scriptures help us understand how sin can be at work in us and yet God's power of salvation is stronger than sin. While we need never fear sin because Jesus has destroyed death, we can come to respect the power of sin in our lives and seek to let the power of Jesus conquer all within us that still clings to death and to the pleasures of this world.
The challenge is at the end of the Gospel: bear the fruit of holiness! That means that if we strive to remain in Christ and to renounce our sin, the fruits of the Holy Spirit can finally be seen in us: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.
Let us strive for holiness even as we recognize our predisposition to sin. May the Lord Jesus Christ strengthen the Holy Spirit within us to the glory of the Father.
Reflections are available for the following Sundays:

We all know of the Religious killing each other over Israel and Jerusalem in particular. The Israelis have their state, the Palestinians want to have their own state.

Man injured when he fell from a ladder while trying to fix a leak caused when copper downspouts were pulled from the building's exterior by thieves.
Sunday, April 20, was Fred Benson's first day back on the job as sexton of the Parish of the Epiphany after suffering a serious head injury on Thursday, March 20.
Benson, 57, was injured when he fell from a ladder while trying to fix a leak caused when copper downspouts were pulled from the building's exterior by thieves.
According to police reports, on Feb. 13, five separate downspouts were reported stolen by church staff. And on Feb. 14, three more were ripped from the side of building.
"In our courtyard, two of the downspouts were stolen, and water was seeping into the building," said Benson. "I just wanted to clean the gutter out and I slipped and fell."
According to Benson, he was about 10-feet off the ground when he toppled off the ladder.
"Basically, I put a ladder up on a lower roof and because it was at an angle the ladder slipped and down I went," he said.
Benson landed on the lower roof then fell onto a stone patio in the courtyard where he was found by church staff a short time later. He spent two nights in the hospital as a result of his injuries and a reddened scar can still be seen near his left temple.
"I don't know what whoever stole the downspouts would have gotten from them," said Benson. "That's probably the worst thing they could do. Off of a church of all places."
The Parish of the Epiphany is Winchester's latest victim of an increasing trend of copper thefts that have plagued communities across the county in the past few years.
According to Kitco Precious Metals, a worldwide metal retailer, the price of copper has quadrupled since 2003 from about $1 per pound to about $4 per pound, due largely to increased world demand.
Pulling copper from the sides of churches, such as the Parish of the Epiphany, or pricey homes, is an easy way for thieves to fill their trucks with the valuable construction material, and make a few extra dollars with a quick trip to a recycling facility.
According to Parish of the Epiphany Rev. Bob Trache, thieves have targeted several local buildings, including the Winchester Community Music School, St. Mary's Catholic Parish, and a private residence.
"These guys, I think, know what they're doing," said Trache, who believes the thieves likely scouted out his church before taking the downspouts.
Detectives documented boot prints in the snow and slush outside of the Parish shortly after the incident, but no arrests have been made.
Police Chief Ken Albertelli said the investigation into the thefts has reached a dead-end.
"There's very little to pursue," he said. There were no witnesses to any of the thefts.
According to Albertelli, some of the stolen copper may have ended up in an Everett recycling plant, but there's no concrete evidence to support the theory yet.
"The problem is, you just can't go onto the [recycling facilities] and look around," he said. "It's their business, so they're not about to ask any questions (when scrap metal comes in) … or answer any."
There haven't been any reported thefts in the past month or so, but as long as the price of copper continues to rise, Albertelli expects there could be more thefts in the future."It's like gas; it keeps going up," he said.
The Parish of the Epiphany has since ordered new downspouts to replace those that were stolen, but this time, they aren't using copper, said Trache. They opted for aluminum painted to look like copper.
Benson, who has been the church sexton for nearly 20 years, said he was happy to be back to work, and is feeling better since his accident.
"It was almost a miracle, really," said Benson.

West Yorkshire Police is reminding people to not be complacent during the warm weather and leave themselves vulnerable to burglars.
Over the weekend, police ran a specialist operation which led to a significant reduction in the number of burglary offences committed, however, the midweek heat-wave has led to an unprecedented spike in the number of properties targeted over recent days.
Superintendent Pat Casserly, who leads West Yorkshire Police's crime fighting initiative Operation Viper, said "We had another successful weekend with a reduction in the number of burglaries, but over recent days and coinciding with the warmer weather we have seen a worrying upturn in the amount of homes being burgled.
"Yesterday (Tuesday) we had 33 domestic burglaries with over a third of those being recorded as an insecure entry; that means burglars have accessed the property through an insecure door or window.
"Understandably, people are opening windows and doors to help with ventilation during the warm weather and criminals are taking advantage.
"This is not about asking people to batten down the hatches when the sun shines but is just a gentle reminder to take sensible precautions when ventilating your house.
"You might just be in your back garden for 10 minutes but that's more than enough time for a burglar to sneak in through an unlocked side door."
Force Crime Prevention Officer Chris Joyce said; "Whilst the warm weather is a great opportunity to get out in the garden or socialise outdoors, there are offenders looking to take advantage of open windows and insecure doors, or personal property left unattended.
"Locking doors and windows that are easily accessible may seem simple, but it really does deter opportunistic offenders from targeting your home and is one of a number of simple steps you can take.
"People can have the best locks, alarms and lighting available, but leaving doors or windows unlocked and valuables on show create the opportunity that a burglar might just be looking for.
"Removing laptops completely out of sight, putting charger units for electronic items in the drawer rather than plugged in and on show, locking doors and removing the keys from the lock, securing tools away in the garage or shed after use and using the security that is already in place are all things that are cost free and could assist in making properties less attractive to burglars."

i like this phone, i never had major problems with it. i think everyone thinks this phone's touchscreen is bad because it's capacitive, and many people don't understand how to use them, since you can't use your fingernail and only the actual finger. i got used to this, even though it's my first touchscreen device. as for the battery, i agree that it's not so great, but I've had phones that die after a day, and give me even less talk time. my phone receives on average, but i live in a good are for reception.

lol, i've had the glyde for like more than 2 and a half months and i love it! nice phone, light, stylish and works for me! the touch screen is great, haven't had a problem with it although the touch screen hates my friend when he uses it, lol. but for those that say the touch screen sucks, you can change the sensitivity level. i put mine on high and it works. if you put it on low, then it'll take several clicks for the screen to respond. also, i heard of a flash update for the phone which tons of people said that fixed the touch screen problems as well as other problems, but i didnt get it because i had no problems to begin with. i heard this upgrade is free. and the claim that you can't play youtube videos from youtube's mobile website on the glyde, thats not true! i went on youtube's mobile website, and i managed to play videos on my glyde. the sound sounds staticy just like any other phone. to prevent that, use 2.5 mm headphones. i don't know if my glyde has god's magic infused into it and other glydes don't but from my experience, i like it and its amazing!

ive had mine for bout 3 months and yea i experienced bad problems wit the touch screen. its like the phone had a mind of its own and would hit butons on its own. the sales rep said it ust needed a alignment and it works a lil bit better. dont get me wrong, i like the idea and design of the phone but they jus messed it up wit the capacitive-sensitive screen.

I have had this phone for about 2 months and have already had to have it replaced. The "alignment" was off according to the sales rep. Which basically means it would do whatever it wants whenever it wanted. They replaced it like I said but I wish they would have just let me trade for a new one because I now hate the phone. Do not buy it, go with the dare or the voyager. Seriously.

I've had it 4 over a month now. I think its a problem with the circuitry. A hardware problem in other words. Maybe its even cuz i live in chicago and its rlly humid here. Idk but its like rlllly annoying sometimes. But when it works correctly then it really is a decent phone =]]

I got the Glyde two weeks ago and I had it for one week and took it back to Verizon. In my opinion it was horrible! For me the worst part was the lag, it reminded me of the first Razor. I also had a lot of problems of having to touch the screen multiple times for it to do what I wanted, even though my sensitivity level was as high as it could go. I would not advise anyone to buy this phone unless it was just mine that was crap.

This unit has got to be the worst unit ever released from Samsung. The touch screen has poor responce time (if you can even get it to respond) The keyboard is way too small for guys with big hands. I found the menu layout to be poorly designed as well. For being one of our flagship phones, this is a total flop. Look at the Voyager or enV2 for better text messaging units. I'd even go with Samsung's u740 over this unit......

Ive had this phone since the day it came out and I havent had any problems with it. Although to some people it may be a bit difficult to control the touch screen, but to me its like cake... some people like it and some people dont.

This is suppose to be a flagship multimedia samsung phone for VZW yet it still can't sync with outlook or use samsung PC suite to sync up your pictures and video when is Verizon gonna get a clue At&T and T-mobile samsungs can use the PC Suite and sync, my old samsung that is 6 years old can sync with my computer, they still haven't change their policy in 6 years!! It is so frustrating.

yeahh.. i just got the phone two days ago, and have been using it just as much as i use my other phone. using it for texting a lot. and the battery lasts about 4 hours and then dies.... 5 hours tops.... is this how it's supposed to be? cause my girlfriend who i'm texting has the curve and she charges it every other day.... is the glyde supposed to have such terrible battery life? or is my phone or battery messed up???

I disagree with this review too. I've played with this phone for a good length of time. It worked perfectly- the touch screen, sounds, reception, and everything. I actually like it and up against the Voyager-it's a hard call for the winner. I"m upgrading soon and the only bad thing I can think of is that the Voyager has FTP and the Glyde only has OBEX

Well, I just picked up this phone and really compared the voyager to it. I wen with the glyde because the phones are almost exactly the same. I Don't reallneed a phone that has a mp3 player for it but something that is more sleek and comfortable in my hand, the glyde was just that even when texting I thought the keyboard was better on the glyde. Dont get me wrong the voyager is a great phone too, but for 100 dollars more, not that great.

Well, now that I have had it for a few weeks its little problems are easily managable... My only real issue is the call quality.. I'm not sure if it is the phone or the network. I came from ATT and havn't used other phones on the verizon network... There is a significant difference, I just hope its the coverage in my area and that it improves...

I have benn using this phone since it was first launched. So far, I had no problem with Glyde at all. The touch screen is very responsive which works better than Voyager. And qwerty keypad is easy to tap and comfortable. Even though Voyager has more features like Mobile TV, I doubt that not many people actually use Mobile TV. Overall, this is a great touchscreen & messaging phone with attractive price.

Unfortunately I don't think many of you truly understand the problems with this phone. The phone has many issues concerning the touchscreen and that is the main reason that I am returning it. The bug I consistently experience isbthat the send button on text messages never works. Every time I use it I need to press it multiple times. On the Internet I experience issues getting links to work. And for the person who said that is it on par with an iPhone, I very much disagree. I have an iPod Touch and the touch works so much more better on the iPod. This review is very correct except that I have had good experience regarding reception. The battery dies for me after only maybe an hour of browsing, twenty texts, and ten minutes talking after about 12 hours. I have also experienced issues regarding testing when switching from front touch to qwerty.

I had a problem a that when I touched the calculator icon the phone would do a reset. I also had a problem with the space bar when texting. I exchanged the phone and so far none of those issues had shown. I think that you have a defective phone. The issues with the touchscreen, I think has to do where you do the tapping. I have learned this after playing with the phone. I still have to tap a couple of times, but to me that is the problem with the touchscreen. When tapping and it doesn't work just tap it slightly to the side. It will work just fine.

I have this phone and wondered what everybody was talkin' about with software and firmware issues. I've never had any. Then the guy at Verizon told me that I have the newer release Glyde that got the software updates. Take your Glyde to Verizon and ask them if it has the software updates. If not, they will do it for you for free.

Ah, yes it does! The Glyde and Voyager both have an HTML browser. It sounds like you are too much in love with your Voyager to admit that another phone has this as well.

I usually agree with phonearena.com, but this happens to be the worst review I've ever seen for any phone. I have been demo'ing this phone all week and went with my car club to Carmel California to the beach cause I figured it would be a good test through mountains and long driving time. We were in Aptos, California right next to a resort on the beach and the Glyde was the only phone that got reception. My LG Chocolate 8550 (My personal) was searching for service and I was able to complete a call on the Glyde. I think personally the Glyde is just not as "optamistic" about it's reception, and shows signal of what it's really getting. It definetly does hang around the middle range of 2-3 "bars". But defintely has never dipped as low as the chocolate so far. Sound quality is excellent. I totally agree with review. Touch screen is excellent. I dissagree big time with phonearena.com. I've had no trouble even using HTML or just browsing around the phone. It's definitely an huge step up in screen from the Voyager. I have no Idea what this reviewer is talking about. Outside phone conditions for screen brightness is similar to any other phone. And can be turned up out of the box. Voyager can not and in a side by side test outside in sunlight. It is defintely better with the samsung with it's brightness turned up from medium to high. Talk time is very very good, Standby and music/web browsing battery life is short. If i'm on the phone all day and do 2-3hrs of web browsing and light use of text and calling my battery will be dead after about a 16-18hr day. When I just used the phone for just phone calls, i was able to get approx 3.5hrs, and my phone had just went down to 1 bar of battery after I made it home from a local bar having cocktails with friends at 2am in the morning and I had the phone on since 7am that morning. (Sorry trying to give real world scenarios. lol) I hope this helps those who were concerned with the terrible review this was given. This is one of the best phones I've used in year. I think I might get one once I have to give this back.

I agree, I've had the Glyde now for almost two months and I love it. I had a LG Chocolate and that was the biggest piece 'o crap LG ever squeezed out! I've been with VZW for about 7 years now and have had nothing but rage with LG phones. The Chocolate was so bad that they offered me an early upgrade with another $80 promo for the Glyde. So basically I got my Glyde for FREE! I don't care who ya are...that's a great deal and I couldn't pass it up. When I first got the Glyde I was a little skeptical if I liked it. But after playing with it for about a day and learning tips and shortcuts and such, I decided I loved it and STILL DO! So do the chics...lol. Cell phones are such an intregal part of us...like our car. If you are a basic person you most likely have a basic car. If you are sophisticated and refined so is your car...our cell phones are the same. I saw a commercial for some prepaid junk called 'jitterbug'...as basic as it gets. Obviously that is for the Ford Taurus people!!!!

LOL!!! I drive a Ford Taurus , bUT My phone is always the best of the best on market. I change phones evey few months. As a sales agent i find it better to of used the phone! Look I've been doing this job along time and from the sales side the phone is crappy! Ive sold over 200 hundred of them an had almost eveyone exchanged. aLL Went to Dare or Voyager! Now the Choc. thats a whole other story i have no clue what Lg was thinking there. All i know is the Glyde in my book is another phone i hate selling just like choc.

I've seen many reviews criticizing the touch screen performance and I cannot agree with those who say it's buggy to a fault. Can someone please post a detailed description of a known, reproducible bug that is a product of the touch screen malfunctioning. My expectation of the touch screen is based on using my girlfriend's iphone. The accuracy of the glyde touch screen is on par with her iphone experience. Sometimes the targets are small and that is difficult on both phones. I turned down the sensitivity of the touch screen when I first got the phone and that is how it has remained. From my experience with the glyde I would say that touch screen problems are ultimately a user problem and not a design issue. Look at it like this: A $2500 Les Paul guitar in the hands of a qualified operator sounds great. A $2500 Les Paul guitar in the hands of a beginner will sound like a beginner. Where does the fault reside? Ultimately a phone is a communication instrument.

even mobile youtube can't work? now THAT is lame.. stereo speakers both on one side? LOL! WTH was Samsung thinking!! I own a Voyager and have played with a Glyde @ a VZW store recently. I think the Glyde feels cheap as if I could break it with one hand. It's also not as eye catching as the LG Voyager but rather looks more like a kids toy. IF ANYONE reading this is debating on whether to get a Glyde or a Voyager, go w/ LG. Hands down.. The Voyager has all the functionality of the Glyde but better implementation and even more features if you consider Mobile TV.
