BNP: Union Jack Shit
Local anti-fascists were out and about around the South Coast this week as the BNP tried to rear their ugly mugs once again.
Over the last month, the BNP have been trying to establish a street presence down south. They’ve attempted with varying degrees of success to hold stalls in Worthing and Bognor, and made a morale-boosting effort to host Nick Griffin in Hastings. Throughout they have been opposed by a rag-tag but determined bag of anti-fascists.
Although the official nasty party have managed to hold street stalls under the radar, Griffinbore couldn’t show his face in Hastings and a constant weekend vigil by anti-fascists has frustrated any further stalls. The most recent effort in Worthing on Remembrance Sunday was abandoned as quote “there are too many scruffy commies in | town”.
A further blow for our ‘It’ll be all white on the night’ foes came when they advertised a meeting on their website happening in Bognor/Littlehampton on 15th November at 7.30pm – with the no doubt riveting main address to be given by one Jonathan Hall (Brighton BNP organiser) on the subject of public spending. Spice was added to this snoreathon by an attempt to keep | [

According to a report from Taiwan Economic News, Apple is trying to fix stock shortages of its recently released tablet, the iPad 2, with the Cupertino based company apparently tapping AU Optronics Corp (AUO) as a new supplier of iPad 2 LCD displays.
It’s no secret that Apple is having a hard time keeping up with demand for the iPad 2. The Apple Store currently lists shipping dates for the iPad as 3-4 weeks and some customers who purchased their device on launch day are still waiting for their device to arrive.
That’s where Apple’s contract with AUO comes in. AUO is the fourth largest LCD maker in the world and adding them as a supplier only means good things to come for those who | want to get their hands on an iPad 2.
The deal with AUO apparently will be a costly one for Apple because the company had no choice but to turn to AUO due to effects of the Japanese earthquake on companies like Hitachi and Toshiba.

Samsung Galaxy Camera revealed, might get announced today
The following image of what appears to be a Samsung Galaxy Camera leaked on the web, and it looks quite well-made to be a hoax. It is also said that the optical system allows zooming at up to 21x. The sensor is supposedly of 16-megapixels – of the BSI CMOS kind, but that's not all this camera has in its arsenal. It is said that inside it ticks a 1.4GHz quad-core processor, while Android 4.1 Jelly Bean is what runs on it. There are also | radios for Wi-Fi and 3G connectivity, and a 1,650mAh battery keeps the thing humming.

Texas Traveler: P. Terry's Burgers, Austin
I put the car in reverse and started backing up through the drive-through lane at P. Terry's in Austin. The guy behind me honked his horn. My traveling companions screamed, "Watch out!" But I didn't care.
"These fries are cold," I told the guy in the drive-though window, handing him back my sack. I don't know whether he gave me new fries or just threw the cold ones back in the hot oil, but when I got my sack back, the fries were piping hot -- and very tasty. He apologized for the inconvenience.
P. Terry's hamburger stand in Austin came highly recommended. A friend described it as an "In and Out" knock-off with thin patties of freshly ground meat, good buns, organic tomatoes and great fries. So we drove through the cute little location at Barton Springs and South Lamar. There was a stack of Idaho potato boxes on the ground outside of the window where you order -- proof that fresh potatoes were used.
I got a double-meat, double-cheese with jalapeños. It was sort of like a Whataburger No. 2 with | jalapeños, only with better meat and more lettuce and tomatoes. The price was about the same too. Strange to say it, but those piping hot fries were really the best thing I ate at P. Terry's.

Suburban nuns fight strip club next to their convent
Sister Marissonia Daltoe is among the nuns angered by the opening of a strip club next door to their Stone Park convent. (WGN-TV)
The club will be called "Get It," and will be built on the 3800 block of West Lake Street right next to the nuns' convent.
This 60-year-old convent houses 21 sisters. It also includes complexes for elderly and sick nuns, and young women who are considering joining the sisterhood.
The nuns believe the club will send the wrong message to kids. They also question whether village leaders followed the approval process properly. They claim they were never properly notified about the club.
Stone Park's attorney says the | village sent the notifications to the wrong address because Cook County's property records were apparently incorrect. Stone Park's mayor insists everything was done lawfully.
The nuns say they won't sue or picket. They'll just pray.
"The only thing we can do I think is pray for them, and that they may realize what they're doing to the neighborhood," said Sister Marissonia Daltoe.
The club is expected to open in the spring. | [

Bank holds fire on further cash boost for economy as analysts predict end to recession

What are IDF soldiers to do when they come across a Hamas terrorist hiding among innocent children? Israeli soldiers are often faced with the difficult moral dilemma of whether or not to fire at a terrorist, and risk harming innocent Palestinians, or to hold their fire, and allow the terrorists to launch a deadly rocket blindly into Israel, possibly killing Israeli children. These are the kinds of impossible decisions Israeli soldiers are forced to make every day.
The IDF makes extraordinary efforts to separate the terrorists from ordinary civilians and, despite the incredible challenges of fighting terrorists who do everything in their power to harm the innocent, they do their utmost to protect the lives of civilians. Without a doubt, Israel has one of the most moral armies in the world.
In the “Documentary Feature” category, two of the five nominated films are about the Arab-Israeli conflict.
The Oscars’ official page describes The Gatekeepers this way:
Six former heads of the Shin Bet, Israel’s counterterrorism agency, speak candidly about their participation in the policies that have shaped the long history of violence between Israelis and Palestinians.
And the Oscars’ official page for the much more openly anti-Israel5 Broken Cameras describes the film this way:

Michael Fried’s basic point within his introduction and first chapter for Why Photography Matters… is that, beginning sometime around the late 1970’s and early 1980’s, art photography began to be made “at a large scale but also for the wall”, and that this shift ushered many of the issues associated with high modernism “to the very center of advanced photographic practice”. This can be seen in the distancing of the viewer from the photographic object, the increasing use of a flattened, mechanical perspective, and the direct acknowledgement of the falsity of the photographic process. Fried begins by outlining three beginnings of this shift in photographic discourse – the investigation of photography and cinema inherent in the work of Cindy Sherman, Hiroshi Sugimoto, and Jeff Wall; the assertion of the photograph as art object in the | work of Wall, Thomas Ruff and Jean-Marc Bustamante; and the questioning or undermining of notions of voyuerism as discussed in three texts – the anonymous French conte Adelaide, Yukio Mishima’s The Temple of Doom, and Susan Sontag’s Regarding the Pain of Others.
In some ways, I see a lot of correlation between the ways in which Fried talks about the work of Jeff Wall, Jean-Marc Bustamante and Thomas Ruff, and some of the aspects of Modernism. Just as Manet and modernism after him stressed the fact that the paintings in | [

"Every single one of us knew you could get killed," Abe Morris said. "People know if you ride bulls, you're going to get hurt."
Morris is a former bull rider now. But when he was still doing it, he says broken bones were like badges.
"I broke my leg twice," he said. "I broke four ribs. My shoulder's been out a couple times."
Few bull riders look like Morris, but he is used to standing out in a crowd.
"My cousins were the black cowboys. I didn't see a lot," he said.
Especially as a kid growing up in New Jersey, but that is where his love affair with rodeo began.
"The first time I rode a junior bull, [I] won $7.50," he said.
By 1974, he was riding for a team at the University of Wyoming.
"After I got there, I was told that I was the first black cowboy to ever attend the University of Wyoming," Morris said.
That is when he found out that being one of the few was not always good.
"There were these old school judges," Morris said. "Those were the guys who were really tough on me."

Achieving a Sustainable Food System with Organic Farming
Despite a slight decline between 2009 and 2010, since 1999 the global land area farmed organically has expanded more than threefold to 37 million hectares, according to new research conducted by the Worldwatch Institute for its Vital Signs Online service (www.worldwatch.org). Regions with the largest certified organic agricultural land in 2010 were Oceania, including Australia, New Zealand, and Pacific Island nations (12.1 million hectares); Europe (10 million hectares); and Latin America (8.4 million hectares), write report authors Catherine Ward and Laura Reynolds.
Organic farming is now established in international standards, and 84 countries had implemented organic regulations by 2010, up from 74 countries in 2009. Definitions vary, but according to the International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movements, organic agriculture is a production system that relies on ecological processes, such as waste recycling, rather than the use of synthetic inputs, such as chemical fertilizers and pesticides.
| "Although organic agriculture often produces lower yields on land that has recently been farmed conventionally, it can outperform conventional practices - especially in times of drought - when the land has been farmed organically for a longer time," said Reynolds, a researcher with Worldwatch's Food and Agriculture Program. "Conventional agricultural practices often degrade the environment over both the long and short term through soil erosion, excessive water extraction, and biodiversity loss | [

Recently, Maryland Citizens Against Lawsuit Abuse (MDCALA) joined NFIB in an effort to poll Maryland small businesses owners across the state. The poll’s results are eye raising even for those of us who expected small businesses to express concerns about the litigation environment in our state.
Ninety-one percent of survey respondents said that lawsuits filed against businesses have a negative impact on business growth and prosperity in Maryland, with two-thirds (66 percent) responding that the number of liability lawsuits is increasing.
Thirty percent of survey respondents reported that they have been sued in the past five years, while 42 percent said they have been threatened with a lawsuit during the same period. Even if they have not been personally sued, 8 out of 10 respondents are concerned that their businesses might be sued in the next five years.
The threat of a lawsuit alone | can have disastrous consequences, according to the survey. Respondents reported that a lawsuit or the threat of a lawsuit has impacted their business by:

- · Forcing them to restrict, reduce or change products or services offered to their customers (55 percent);
- · Making their products or services more expensive | [

Playwright Roman Sikora (3. 7. 1970) in comical portrait shows how it looks in the real backdrop of Brno. In 1998 he placed second for the Radok prize for his play Smetení Antigony, a number of years after he is fired from the position of night doorman for the City Theatre in Brno.

Ann Arbor police investigating 3 sexual assaults by taxi drivers
Ann Arbor police Wednesday confirmed there have been three sexual assaults involving cab drivers since Jan. 23 inside city limits, including one in which the driver has been identified.
Detective Lt. Robert Pfannes released a statement Wednesday detailing the allegations from three separate women, including two University of Michigan students. Pfannes said police are exploring the possibility the sexual assaults are related, but the descriptions of the suspects are vague in each case.
Pfannes said prosecutors are reviewing the most recent case from Feb. 10 involving a Blue Cab driver. In that case, the driver allegedly touched a 23-year-old woman’s thigh while driving, then parked and then kissed her, Pfannes said.

I’m rather fond of this idea. Hilly over at Snackie’s World asked me these particular 5 questions. If you want to play (because, really, what else are you doing? NOT reading my blog on the weekend?), read the instructions at the bottom and I’ll interview you.

I’m a textbook Scorpio. Trust me. I found this on an astrology site for my specific birthdate, and it pretty much sums up everything:
You are a dynamic, passionate person who has a lot to give, but who also expects the same level of commitment in return. You are determined to follow through on your own commitments and responsibilities, and you generally do what it takes to achieve your goals. Your charisma sets you apart from others, and you find that others quite easily respect you. Willing to help out, but never a pushover, you know your limits and you don’t have much trouble communicating them. You are somewhat of a perfectionist, and your tendency to try to control things is most apparent in your career and on the home front (OH REALLY?). You are an executive, but you | also know the value of teamwork and charm, so you don’t come on too strong. Your distaste for the superficial is marked.

When he shot President Lincoln, John Wilkes Booth was 26 years old, and one of the nation’s most famous actors. (Charles DeForest Fredericks/National Portrait Gallery)
John Wilkes Booth, a Maryland native, spent the war performing in theatrical productions. But the conflict was never far from his mind. In a letter to his mother, he expressed chagrin that he hadn’t joined the Confederate army, writing, “I have … begun to deem myself a coward, and to despise my own existence.” He was outraged by the reelection of Lincoln, whom he viewed as the instigator of all the country’s woes. The month after the inauguration, Booth learned that Lincoln would be attending a performance at Ford’s Theatre on April 14. That night, he crept into Lincoln’s theater box and shot him in the back of the head. It was the first time a president had been murdered. “Wanted” posters were issued for Booth, and on April 26, he was cornered in a tobacco barn and shot by a federal sergeant, acting against orders to bring him in alive.
Several months later, Charles Creighton Hazewell, a frequent | contributor, sought to make sense of the assassination—speculating that the plot may have been hatched in Canada (where a number of secessionist schemes had originated) and hinting at evidence that the plan had been endorsed at the | [

Vega is by far the brightest star in the tiny constellation of Lyra the lyre. Legend has it that Lyra was the lyre given by the god Apollo to Orpheus, and was placed in the sky after his death. Vega is the fifth brightest star in the sky. And of those visible from Devon, only Sirius and Arcturus are brighter.

Once a hair comes out of the scalp, it's dead. Delightful thought, no? Even though hair outside of the scalp is no longer living, scientists can still tell a lot about a person just from analyzing his or her strands.
Your hair, which grows about a half-inch per month, comes out from living follicles from within the scalp, | so whatever you put in your body becomes pretty much trapped "evidence" within. For an accurate drug analysis, for instance, it's typical for scientists to look at about one and a half inches of hair (about 90 days' worth) towards the newer growth. That's why hardcore drug users often shave their heads — to avoid detection.
Hair analysis can also tell approximately where you live, your exposure to chemicals, your DNA information, if you drink, and your eating habits. | [

And, it is the base that potentially offers more, particularly when we arrive at the direct-gap, high speed, high current density heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT) and realize the base although thin (10-100nm), has room for more layering (bandgap and doping) and can be modified.

Adobe: Photoshop is not a target for attackers
Adobe have responded to the suggestion that they are effectively charging for security updates, saying that they do not believe that "the real-world risk to customers warranted an out-of band release to resolve these issues". On Wednesday, a security bulletin issued by Adobe pointed out security flaws in Photoshop CS5/CS5.5 and Illustrator CS5/CS5.5, but offered only a paid-for upgrade to the very recently released CS6 versions of the applications as a fix for the flaws.
Contacted by The H's associates at heise Security, the company says it rated the APSB12-11 security bulletin a "priority 3 update" on the basis that "it is a product that has historically not been a target for attackers" and that it was not aware of any exploits targeting the issues that they had fixed. Adobe may be categorising exploits as "code used in anger to cause damage", because there is at least one proof of concept | exploit for one of the APSB12-11 vulnerabilities.
Releasing a security advisory will, however, have raised awareness with attackers – especially attackers who use spear-phishing tactics aimed at particular categories of users within an organisation – that such holes exist in Photoshop and that they are potentially exploitable.

If you decide to save money by not buying the upcoming "NFL '10" when it releases in mid-August, you'll be missing out on the most current roster of players, a new and more realistic quarterback pocket, and new tackling pile-on and fumble-fighting features. But "NFL '09" (rated "E") was exquisite without those features, the first near-perfect "Madden" in a few years, which came with a do-over rewind button to reverse an opponent's big play or to reverse | one of your own rotten plays. The question is: If you can afford the upcoming "NFL '10," will it be worth the upgrade? We will find out in a little more than a month.

Nairobi, Kenya - Medallists at last year’s World Youth Championship returned imperious performances to book tickets for the forthcoming IAAF World Junior Championships - Barcelona, Spain 10-15 July - as Kenya selected 25 runners during the two-day Trials that ended Saturday (9) in Nairobi.
Lille gold winners William Malel (boys 3000m), Conseslus Kipruto (boys 2000m Steeple) and Faith Chepng’etich (girls 1500m) will front the squad tasked with finishing atop the medal table as they did at the last event in Moncton | , Canada.
Chepng’etich, the World and Africa Cross Country junior champion will double over the women 1500m and 3000m races with Geoffrey Kirui, who finished fifth at the senior 10,000m London Olympics Trial in Eugene, Oregon, being granted wildcard entry to Barcelona by Athletics Kenya (AK).

The 2004 Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries (CFOI) data were revised to include 61 cases that were identified or confirmed after the preliminary 2004 data were released in August 2005. The revised fatality count for 2004 is 5,764. Fifty-one of the 61 additional cases were from California, largely due to delays in obtaining death certificate information. As a result, the distribution of the updates by demographic characteristics strongly resembled the distribution of fatalities in California. Notably, 31 percent or 19 of the 61 total updates were to workers of Hispanic origin. The resulting fatality count for 2004 to Hispanic workers was 902, a new series high. Additionally, 36 percent, or 22, of the updates were to foreign-born workers.
Of the updates, over half, or 31, were transportation incidents (of which 25 were highway incidents), 13 percent (8) were homicides, 10 percent (6) were suicides, and 10 percent (6) were falls. Eleven of the 61 fatalities were in the Transportation and warehousing | industry, 9 of which were in Truck transportation. Ten fatalities each occurred in construction and agriculture bringing the total 2004 count in these industries to 1,234 and 669, respectively. Eight | [

Dad and baseball
Opening Day is so big to me, though, that Bud Selig can't completely ruin it for me.
I love baseball. I love baseball to the point where it's a sickness. I'm fascinated by the hit-and-run, HBP and diving stops in the hole. I've visited the Baseball Hall of Fame four times. One of those times was my honeymoon ( | and yes, I'm still married to the same woman).
I played baseball versus Jason Tincher in my backyard. One-on-one. Wood bat. Tennis ball. At first we'd use frisbees or pieces of wood as bases; it only took one summer to never need bases again. The spots on the ground were so worn out that grass didn't grow again until I was in high school and the "Doug v Jason" battles were long gone because we were Bellbrook High School Varsity baseball teammates.

The board’s condition is that he makes a fulsome public apology for sending texts to the South African side, allegedly about Andrew Strauss. A private message from Adam Wheatley might not be enough to solve an issue tearing the England team apart on the eve of their biggest Test match since the last Ashes series.
Pietersen had been told only an act of contrition will suffice before he is picked for England again. This apology is therefore being seen as just the starting point for potential rehabilitation. Both sides are expected to issue further statements on Wednesday.
Pietersen needs to build bridges with Strauss especially. The England captain has always been a firm believer in unity within the dressing room and in personal responsibility. Pietersen’s behaviour has broken trust within the team, changing the relationship between captain and | star batsman.
“I’ve always got on very well with Kevin,” Strauss told Sky Sports. “I’ve tried to be honest with him, and he’s been honest with me. That’s why this has all been a bit of a surprise for me.

The Emergency Response team at Latter-day Saint Charities is constantly on the alert and ready to respond to disasters. Minutes after being notified of the 2010 Haiti earthquake, they immediately began coordination to provide relief.
Latter-day Saint Charities handled the Haiti disaster differently than the 2009 tsunami in Samoa or the earthquake in Indonesia. Both previous disasters had a devastating effect on those within miles of the coastline. The earthquake in Haiti, on the other hand, caused damage to a much larger area inland and brought new challenges for relief workers. The infrastructure of the country was completely destroyed and the government left barely functioning after the quake.
The first step was to contact local LDS Church leaders and other contacts to assess the situation. Partner agencies, such as Islamic Relief, CARE, and the Red Cross, were also contacted to coordinate the shipment of supplies. One hundred sixty thousand pounds of supplies, including medical supplies, family food boxes, water filtration bottles, hygiene kits, blankets, powdered milk, tents, tarps, body bags, and canned food, were included in the first relief supplies Latter-day Saint Charities shipped to Haiti. The | supplies were gathered from Church storehouses in Orlando and Atlanta and shipped to an Islamic Relief warehouse in Miami. Two separate airlifts transported the supplies to the suffering in Haiti.

Southwest Florida College to open its newest campus in Bonita Springs, Fla.
Southwest Florida College has leased space at the Walden Center on US41, just south of the Coconut Point Mall in Bonita Springs, Fla. The campus will house the Institute for Interior Design and support additional programs in management, criminal justice, network engineering and administration, and medical assistant.

The Bonita Springs campus will open its doors for | the fall term in September.

Acting as a key component within the supply of modern menswear essentials, French Connection has released its SS13 lookbook. Whilst packed with the familiar tees and nautical stripes that we know and love, the brand have also integrated some seriously punchy prints into the range. However, when placed within the traditional simplistic French Connection aesthetic, these pieces appear both wearable and widely accessible.
Charlie France is the ideal ‘boy next door’ model for displaying the collection, and does so with an easy charm. Fuss free shots show the comfort and practicality on offer within the collection and this is supported by the subtle styling. A palette of pastels, primaries and indigo blue reflect the diversity of the summer range and offer the versatility that is needed from such styles.
A nod to the current camouflage trend is seen in the rusty orange jacket. With its bold all over print and drawstring trims, the result is both practical and eye catching. Another stand out piece within the collection is the dusty pink floral print shirt. Its gentle colour and subtle detailing make it the ideal choice for someone looking to integrate | a less daring print into their wardrobe.

Obama signs short-term spending bill, averting federal shutdown
Wednesday, March 2, 2011; 5:44 PM
President Obama on Wednesday signed a stopgap measure that will keep the federal government funded through March 18, averting a shutdown for two more weeks while congressional leaders head to the White House to broker a longer-term deal.
The resolution, which passed the Senate earlier Wednesday 91 to 9, will cut $4 billion in spending by targeting programs that Obama has already marked for elimination and reductions. That's far less than House Republicans had wanted to cut, but with the clock ticking and public opinion sharply divided, GOP leaders were willing to make concessions.
Senate Majority Leader Harry M. Reid (D-Nev.) announced after the vote Wednesday that the White House had invited leaders of both parties to meet with Vice President Biden to come up with a plan that would continue federal funding through the remainder of the fiscal year. The talks could begin this week, a Senate Democratic leadership aide said.
Obama said in a statement that he would enlist Biden, White House Chief of Staff William M. Daley and budget director Jacob J. Lew to work with congressional leaders to hash out | a long-term agreement.
"I'm pleased that Democrats and Republicans in Congress came together and passed a plan that will cut spending and keep the government running for the next two weeks. But we cannot keep doing business this way," Obama said after the Senate passed the two-week resolution. "Living with the threat of a | [

“The New York Jets are a team that I’m excited to hear about, just to stay home, not make a big move from New York. It's just right across the street from where I am now,’’ Bradshaw said Tuesday on the NFL Network’s “NFL AM’’ program.
Right across the street is all well and good, but do the Jets want Bradshaw? After all, he’s currently in a walking boot after another surgical procedure on his right foot. The Jets need another running back, as Shonn Greene is a free agent, leaving Bilal Powell as the only experienced NFL back. Powell is more of a No. 2 back, though, | and it remains to be seen if Bradshaw is still a legitimate No. 1 back.
