In 1945 the Romanian-born Jewish immigrant Richard Goldner founded Sydney Musica Viva to promote chamber music in his adoptive home. Seventy years later, it has morphed into the largest chamber music presenter in the world. Its contribution to the cultural life of this country – to young and old, in cities and throughout regional Australia - is immense, and deserves celebration. So celebrate they did last night with a recital from violin virtuoso Maxim Vengerov.
Vengerov is widely flagged as the world's greatest violinist, but there is no swagger to the star. As he walks out onto the Opera House stage alone he carries his reputation as he carries his Stradivarius violin, lightly, turning away from the 2000-strong audience for a moment to discretely check his tuning, then launching into the mighty Chaconne from Bach's Violin Partita no. 2 in D minor.
Every violin soloist attempts the Chaconne, and many play it well, but I've never heard it with such consistency and depth of detail. It is as if Vengerov has taken each note and taken it as close to perfection as is humanly possible, before putting it all together in a dazzling whole. There is so much to hear, all of it beautiful.
Russian pianist Roustem Saitkoulov accompanies Vengerov in two sonatas, Beethoven's seventh in C minor, and Ravel's second in G major. Saitkoulov is a terrific foil to Vengerov, unleashing a frenzy of pianistic fireworks at the end of the Beethoven, and matching the dewdrop clarity of Ravel's writing for violin.
If there is any doubt, Vengerov establishes his technical mastery with a series of Olympian solos by Ysaye, Ernst and Paganini. The sheer spectacle – left-hand pizzicato, quadruple stopping, insane bow control – is gripping, but the consistently creamy tone, the faultless intonation, and the way he finds the music in the virtuosic madness is what makes his playing so inspiring.
Musica Viva Australia has brought life-changing experiences to so many Australians, and they did it again last night. Happy birthday!

On Friday, November 28, 2014, Nigeria's grand Kano Central Mosque was bombed. The initial official assessment is that at least two suicide bombers were involved. Immediately afterward the suicide bombers' back-up death squad of at least three men opened gunfire on both Muslim faithfuls who were peacefully worshiping inside the mosque and some initial survivors who reflexively tried to flee from the bomb blast. The death toll is assessed to be over 120 dead with over 500 injured. The bombing was carefully targeted for maximum impact for mass casualty. The injuries have been so severe that many of the survivors are expected to die in the following weeks, and some of those who ultimately survive, will never regain the full use of their limbs and lives. These are Nigerians, our fellow citizens, with families. If their lives have no value, neither does mine nor yours!!!
But while they recognize that Boko Haram has transformed from the thugs of post-election angst for proxy destabilization of Nigeria to a West African Jihadist commercial crime syndicate, Nigerians are still in denial about what Boko Haram wants. That is, Nigerians have regional/cultural/religion-based resistance to recognizing and accepting that Boko Haram is now a principal member of global Jihadist alliance ALL OF WHOM HAVE DULY PLEDGED ALLEGIANCE to Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the self-styled 'Caliph' of the so-called Islamic State in Iraq and Syria, ISIS (a.k.a., ISIL or Islamic State).
In their quest for truth and tacit deniability Nigerians are looking for a complex web of conspiracy to explain why our corrupt but culture-of-life nation has suddenly became a new Middle East. The bombing of Kano Central Mosque has a simpler but no less deadly significance than the religious, partisan and tribal diagnoses Nigerians will instinctively arrive at. Those prejudiced against or in fear of Islamic doctrine (Islamophobia) will quickly interpret this bomb blast as one more example of senseless Islamic violence. Some partisan Nigerians will quickly blame it on mysterious agents of the ruling People's Democratic Party (PDP) bent on creating conditions for a State of Emergency in Northern Nigeria in other to avoid holding the 2015 general elections, thus prolonging PDP rule. Other partisan Nigerians will equally blame the blast on agents of the opposition All Progressives Congress (APC) bent on disrupting an election it is certain to lose, thus enabling APC to form a parallel government and, per chance, encourage a military coup. Already some conspiracy-fantasists are claiming that the bomb blast is part of ongoing conspiracy of genocide against Nigerians of Northern origins. And don't forget the vast majority of Nigerians who live South of Abuja, Federal Capital Territory, some of whom will self-righteously conclude that bombings rarely happen unless indigenes and natives ignored or supported the fanatics.
Welcome to Nigeria!!! One on one, Nigerians can be resourceful, pragmatic and open minded. But in group settings Nigerians tend to be irredeemable tribalists, dedicated partisans and fanatical religionists who would rather blame the Devil, blame the-other-tribe or blame the Western World for made-in-Nigeria problems than acknowledge tribal misdeed or accept religious fallibility. Instead of candid self-evaluation, diagnoses and painful corrective measures Nigerians are likely to evaluate this bomb blast through denials and deliberate distractions: there will be claims of aggravated aggregate victimhood, some smug feeling of regional security, patently partisan mischief, and the usual conspiracy theories. Because Nigerians have refused to properly diagnosis Boko Haram as the initial political tool of those who couldn't abide the mild embarrassment of electoral loss finding proper solution has been next to impossible. To worsen matters, it is those who unleashed the plague of Boko Haram on Nigeria that are often loudest in pre-preemptively accusing other Nigerians of incubating and nurturing Boko Haram.
Here is the easy pathway to the mystery. Jihadists bombed the mosque to send a message to ALL CORNERS of Nigeria about global Jihadists' strategic goals.
WHAT MESSAGE? That while millions of Southern Nigerians and Northern Nigerians continue to argue over transparently stupid points such as whether Christianity is better than Islam or which religion had more converts last year, Jihadists are steadily expanding their terror zones of influence. Humans love to join winning teams and as things stand millions of Nigerian Youths believe that Jihadists are wining. So, let's not pretend to be surprised about Boko Haram's recruitment tactic or why Boko Haram is still successful despite manifest cruelty.
Boko Haram is slaughtering and beheading people ISIS-style because it is the Nigerian representatives of ISIS-led global Jihadists. The total conquest of ALL of Nigeria is the goal. They are slaughtering Nigerian Muslims and Christians alike because in the ISIS-like judgment of Boko Haram the traditional Islam that is practiced in Nigeria – is "haram." In Boko Haram's judgment the majority of Nigerian Muslims deserve death because Nigeria's traditional Islamic practices do not measure up to the 5th Century Islamic "purity" standards that recognize only one "Caliph" and no Emirs, Sheikhs and Sultans. ISIS does not recognize international boundaries created by Western Colonial powers or Middle East kings/kingdoms, emirs/emirates created or endorsed by the Western powers. Similarly, Boko Haram no longer recognizes the boundaries of the thirty-six (36) states of Nigeria nor does it recognize any Obis, Obas, Emirs or Sultan created or endorsed by the British colonial authorities in Nigeria. It does not matter to Boko Haram that Kano Central Mosque is attached to the Palace of the Emir of Kano because Boko Haram does NOT recognize the Emir's legitimacy.
To Boko Haram the only legitimate ruler in Nigeria is Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the self-styled "Caliph" of the so-called Islamic State/ISIS, who is somewhere in Iraq or Syria hiding from U.S. bombs and Hellfire drones. To Boko Haram every inch of Nigeria is occupied territory that must be liberated from Nigerian Muslims (because they have not pledged allegiance to ISIS Caliph) and from Nigerian Christian infidels (unless they convert and pledge allegiance). Any Nigerian who chose to keep seeing Boko Haram as a "Northern problem" is deliberately living in fool's paradise. It was pure luck that Emir Muhammad Sanusi II was in Saudi Arabia when the mosque was bombed. Despite Emir Sanusi II recently urging civilians to take up arms against Boko Haram he was NOT the bomb's target. Many Nigerians knew that Emir Sanusi was travelling and so did Boko Haram. Kano Central Mosque was bombed because of Boko Haram's contempt and deep hatred for Nigerian Muslims that Boko Haram regard as bad Muslims for living side by side with Christians; it was bombed because Boko Haram sees Nigerian Muslims as unable or unwilling to impose Sharia law on all of Nigeria and because Nigerian Muslims women still have a choice as to what to wear in public.
To Boko Haram these are unforgivable sins on the part of Nigerian Muslims and that is what will happen to Nigerians if and when Boko Haram conquers Nigeria. It won't happen? Yes, OK, how many guns do you have in your house to take care of your family? My job is to make you think about your family. What you do is up to you. All Nigerian Muslims must accept Emir Sanusi's command to take up arms and fight terrorism. Those Nigerians who love to blame Muslims for every terrorist acts must never forget that Boko Haram hates Nigerian Muslims as much as they hate Christians. I have only one message for any Christian who won't help in the fight against Boko Haram: Just like Adamawa, Abuja-FCT, Makurdi, Ibadan, Lagos, Aba and Port Harcourt are NOT far enough. They will come for you soon!!! The Jihadists will definitely come for your children and they will NOT wait to finish the conquest of Borno before they come for you.
Due to the death of Shekau and because of Boko Haram's failure to revive the propaganda legend of Shekau, field victories followed by wanton slaughter, and extreme cruelty and high-profile bombing of schools, football events, and now, Kano Central Mosque have become tactical demonstration of global Jihadists' ascendancy in Nigeria. It highlights their successful infiltration of Nigeria's city, national and community-based security apparatuses and showcase the casual impunity with which the Jihadists are slaughtering their way to their strategic goals.
GOALS? Boko Haram has two mutually-reinforcing goals: (1) randomize and reinforce general insecurity and destabilization through gun attacks, bombings, beheadings, kidnappings, etc., to prove cover for Jihadists to engage in criminal mercantile enterprises without interference from the police; and (2) then exploit the national insecurity, tribal suspicions, meaningless religious arguments and profits from the criminal enterprises to finance the total takeover of Nigeria from Borno to Sokoto, Taraba to Kogi, and Lagos to Bayelsa.
(1): Boko Haram's cruel and unusual brutality against Nigerian Muslims in the North. While victories have attracted thousands of naive young Muslims to join them, Boko Haram's cruelty and kidnapping of wives and daughters have also alienated older Muslim villagers what are now counter-attacking the Jihadists.
(2): Deep-rooted Christianity in Middle Belt and Southern Nigeria. There are serious disagreements among Boko Haram's three main factions about the wisdom or feasibility of attacking "Christianity Corridors" before mid-2015.
(3): Boko Haram's inability, so far, to train Jihadists who can blend into the South without attracting negative attention for the duration of time it takes to prepare and carry out massive, randomized and sustained attacks.
But none of these three "defenses" is insurmountable!
It's only a matter of time before Boko Haram gets a disciplined strategist!!
One Response to "Security Implications of Boko Haram Bombing of Kano Central Mosque"
Fools have tried, wise people have failed. Personally, as a threat, security and risk expert based in the UK and a Nigerian, my heart bleeds for my beloved country. There are effective tried and tested counter measures to sort Boko Haram atrocities if only the leader and security apparatus in place in Nigeria have the wherewithal. Attorney Patryk Y Utulu's write up and that of many concerned intelligentsia are succinct and well researched. My bone of contention is that no viable solution to end this imbroglio is forth coming or professed with the exception of that from Col. Umar rtd. I am at my country service if needed.

Biden, congressional leaders call for COVID relief, but still seem far apart on a deal
Governor says West Virginia is "diamond in the rough" for…
With coronavirus cases continuing to spike and the expiration date for key relief programs looming, President-elect Biden and congressional leaders all believe the nation needs more legislation to address the economic fallout of the pandemic before the end of the year. But that belief appears to be about the only thing Republicans and Democrats agree on; they're still far apart on how much it should cost.
Whether a bill can be passed before the end of the year is currently complicated by the question of who will be holding the majority in the Senate when the new Congress begins next year. However, this will be settled by the outcome of the two Senate runoff races in Georgia in early January. In the House, Speaker Nancy Pelosi will be leading a smaller majority in January because several freshman Democrats lost their reelection races this year.
Mr. Biden met with Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer last week to discuss his legislative priorities, and the the three "agreed that Congress needed to pass a bipartisan emergency aid package in the lame-duck session," a joint readout of the meeting said. They want the next legislation to include "resources to fight the COVID-19 pandemic, relief for working families and small businesses, support for state and local governments trying to keep frontline workers on the payroll, expanded unemployment insurance, and affordable health care for millions of families."
The House passed legislation in October that would spend over $2 trillion on these priorities, but it's been dismissed by Senate Republicans as far too expensive and loaded down with provisions irrelevant to the pandemic. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has introduced his own bill at a fraction of the House bill's cost — about $500 billion — but it has been blocked twice by Democrats who don't think it goes far enough.
Pelosi spent weeks negotiating with Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin ahead of the election on a relief proposal, but the two were unable to reach an agreement, even after Mnuchin made a nearly $2 trillion offer. Pelosi said that the main sticking points were how much funding could be allocated to state and local governments and the inclusion of liability protections, a priority for McConnell. Although President Trump has called on Congress to pass coronavirus relief, he has also expressed opposition to including funding for state and local jurisdictions, accusing Democrats of wanting to bail out blue states.
Mnuchin met with congressional Republicans last week, but did not speak with congressional Democrats.
McConnell and Pelosi have both appeared uninterested in considering legislation proposed by the other. McConnell told reporters last week that he was focused on passing his previously proposed bill, which would include funding for schools, the Paycheck Protection Program and liability reform.
"I am open to a targeted bill roughly of the amount that we recommended, a half trillion dollars, which is not nothing, narrowly targeted at schools, at healthcare providers, at PPP, and of course liability reform to keep America from being engaged in an epidemic of lawsuits on the heels of the pandemic, very open to that but I have seen no evidence yet as several of my colleagues have suggested that they are open to it," McConnell said.
Pelosi told reporters on Friday that she and McConnell are not currently negotiating over coronavirus-related aid, and she called McConnell an "obstacle" to efforts to reach a deal.
"There's just one big obstacle in the way in the Senate, Mitch McConnell … and the other obstacle is President Trump," Pelosi said.
Congress is out for the Thanksgiving recess until next week.

Q: How to keep X most recent git reflog entries indefinitely Sometimes I work on a project, then leave it for a long time before coming back to it.
git reflog will automatically delete entries that are older than 90 days, so if I return to my project after this length of time then git reflog will be empty, which could be inconvenient.
I could set the expiration time to longer than 90 days, but what if I return to a project after an even longer time?  I could tell git reflog never to delete entries - but I don't want to be storing hundreds of years-old reflog entries!
What I would like is to keep the last X entries indefinitely.  For example, if X = 10, I would like to be able to come back to my project after a long break, and there are still 10 entries in the reflog, but all the older ones have been deleted.
Is there a way of achieving this?

A: You may be mentally assigning the reflog too much power. It's just a list of commits. The important thing is the SHA of each commit. If you think now that a certain commit might be important to you later (to reset to, perhaps), just write down its SHA. Example:
badfeed1 - This was the head just before I rebased myBranch

Of course, that doesn't guarantee that the commit in question will exist later. So even better would be to assign that commit a branch or tag name. That will keep it alive forever. If your tag name expresses why the commit is potentially important to you (like my note above), the problem is completely solved.
Of course, you may also be misunderstanding what the reflog is. It's effectively just a text file; it's no bigger than the list. So if there were a way to make all entries stick around forever, it wouldn't do any harm memory-wise (though of course, as I just said, most of the commits referred to may well have ceased to exist).
But I would also have to wonder why the reflog is so important to you. All existing commits are available through the real log (git log). The reflog is generally useful only if you've made a drastic mistake (like a rebase that proved mistaken, as in my example above). And that is the sort of thing you're likely to want to fix within the next five seconds, not after the passage of 90 days.
Thus it seems likely that you're misusing git reflog. If the idea is simply to have a form of log that takes up less space, the usual thing is to say
git log --oneline --graph --decorate

This is so common to say, in fact, that most serious users have a Git alias for it (mine is git lll).

Ajinkya Rahane Scores A Ton, Helps India Take Control Of 2nd Test
in Breaking News, Sports
Melbourne: India skipper Ajinkya Rahane played a captain's knock to score his 12th Test century and help India take control of the second Test against Australia at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. India ended the second day's play, comfortably placed at 277/5, and 82 runs ahead of the hosts Aussies who were bowled out for 195 in the first innings on Saturday.
Rahane was unbeaten on 104 while all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja was with him at the crease on 40, the two having added an unbeaten 104 for the sixth wicket.
The India stand-in skipper shared half-century partnerships with Hanuma Vihari and Rishabh Pant to rescue India after they were reduced to 64 for three in the first session.
India lost two wickets in each of the first two sessions but did not allow any breakthrough to Australia in the final session.
India were 189 for five at the end of the second session, having lost the wickets of Vihari and Pant while adding 99 in that session.
Vihari fell for 21 to leave India at 116 for four. He had added 52 for the fourth wicket with Rahane. Pant, who came in at the fall of Vihari's wicket, then added 57 runs for the fifth wicket with Rahane before getting caught behind off the bowling of Mitchell Starc, who got his 250th Test wicket.
India had earlier lost the wickets of opener Shubman Gill and Cheteshwar Pujara and went to lunch at 90 for three. Both were dismissed by Pat Cummins.
Brief scores: Australia 195 all out vs India 277/5 (A Rahane 104 batting, S Gill 45, R Jadeja 40 batting, P Cummins 2/71, M Starc 2/61, N Lyon 1/52).

These Wellington quotes will inspire you. Wellington is the capital city of New Zealand.
Below you will find a collection of motivating, happy, and encouraging Wellington quotes, Wellington sayings, and Wellington proverbs.
Best Wellington Quotes
"Twelve-piece cookware sets for ninety-nine bucks are routinely hawked on late-night TV – often by friends of mine. But with a mere five pieces, you can do whatever you like – slay the dragon and then cook its tenderloin in the style of the duke of Wellington, if you want to." ~ Mario Batali
"I am flushed and warm. I think I may be enormous, I am so stupidly happy, My wellingtons Squelching and squelching through the beautiful red." ~ Sylvia Plath
"Can a magician kill a man by magic?" Lord Wellington asked Strange. Strange frowned. He seemed to dislike the question. "I suppose a magician might," he admitted, "but a gentleman never would." ~ Susanna Clarke
"I'm staunch. If you are lucky enough to be able to play for your country, it seems to make you even prouder of your roots and origins, and to me that's Wellington." ~ Murray Mexted
"I was born on Wellington Avenue and my family that remains lives in the Lake Shore Drive area." ~ Bob Balaban
"I'll tell you what you can expect from an Irishman named Wellington whose father was a bookmaker. You can expect that anything he says or writes may be repeated aloud in your own home in front of your children. You can believe he was taught to love and respect all mankind, but to fear no man." ~ Wellington Mara
"I try to paint from life, but I had such a miserable experience with Bonaparte, who wouldn't sit still and kept mumbling about catching a cold and something incoherent about Wellington , so I finally decided to work from photos." ~ Roman Genn
"Was it possible that Napoleon should win the battle of Waterloo? We answer, No! Why? Because of Wellington? Because of Blucher? No! Because of God! For Bonaparte to conquer at Waterloo was not the law of the nineteenth century. It was time that this vast man should fall. He had been impeached before the Infinite! He had vexed God! Waterloo was not a battle. It was the change of front of the Universe!" ~ Victor Hugo
"The fame of a battlefield grows with its years; Napoleon storming the Bridge of Lodi, and Wellington surveying the towers of Salamanca, affect us with fainter emotions than Brutus reading in his tent at Philippi, or Richard bearing down with the English chivalry upon the white armies of Saladin." ~ Robert Aris Willmott
"I tell you Wellington is a bad general, the English are bad soldiers; we will settle this matter by lunch time." ~ Napoleon Bonaparte
"If we strike a line to the N.W. from Sydney to Wellington Valley, we shall find that little change takes place in the geological features of the country." ~ Charles Sturt
"One of the highlights of my career was playing first class rugby for my province, which was Wellington. Another highlight was playing first class rugby with my brothers. Not many brothers get to do that. I can't explain what it felt like to be out there, playing with them. It was a great feeling." ~ Filo Tiatia
"Is it true or false that Belfast is north of London? That the galaxy is the shape of a fried egg? That Beethoven was a drunkard? That Wellington won the battle of Waterloo? There are various degrees and dimensions of success in making statements: the statements fit the facts always more or less loosely, in different ways on different occasions for different intents and purposes." ~ J. L. Austin
"When Wellington thrashed Bonaparte,
As every child can tell,
The House of Peers, throughout the war,
Did nothing in particular,
And did it very well" ~ W. S. Gilbert
"If Wellington epitomizes the English gentleman, Eisenhower epitomizes the natural American gentleman." ~ John Keegan
"It isnt only fictional heroes to whom toast means home and comfort. It is related of the Duke of Wellington – I believe by Lord Ellesmere – that when he landed at Dover in 1814, after six years absence from England, the first order he gave at the Ship Inn was for an unlimited supply of buttered toast." ~ Elizabeth David
"He passes, struck by the stare of truculent Wellington but in the convex mirror grin unstruck the bonham eyes and fatchuck cheekchops of Jollypoldy the rixdix doldy." ~ James Joyce
"I had a strong sudden instinct that I must be alone. I didn't want to see any people at all. I had seen so many people all my life — I was an average mixer, but more than average in a tendency to identify myself, my ideas, my destiny, with those of all classes that came in contact with. I was always saving or being saved — in a single morning I would go through the emotions ascribable to Wellington at Waterloo. I lived in a world of inscrutable hostiles and inalienable friends and supporters." ~ F. Scott Fitzgerald
"The Duke of Wellington brought to the post of first minister immortal fame,-a quality of success which would almost seem to include all others." ~ Benjamin Disraeli
"We started out as boss and player, and Wellington was almost like my father." ~ Frank Gifford
"I am made for autumn. Summer and I have a fickle relationship, but everything about autumn is perfect to me. Woolly jumpers, Wellington boot, scarves, thin first, then thick, socks. The low slanting light, the crisp mornings, the chill in my fingers, those last warm sunny days before the rain and the wind. Her moody hues and subdued palate punctuated every now and again by a brilliant orange, scarlet or copper goodbye. She is my true love." ~ Alys Fowler
"I find this kind of folk with guys in Wellington boots and washboards not good to listen to. That music is one step away from barn dancing as far as I'm concerned. Anyone under the age of 60 should not be wearing Wellington boots on stage." ~ Johnny Marr
"You remember the Duke of Wellington was talking of the Battle of Waterloo when he said that it was not that the British soldiers were braver than the French soldiers. It was just that they were brave five minutes longer. And in our struggles sometimes that's all it takes-to be brave five minutes longer, to try just a little harder, to not give up on ourselves when everything seems to beg for our defeat." ~ Paul H. Dunn
"The poor old Duke [of Wellington]! What shall I say of him? To be sure he was born in Ireland, but being born in a stable does not make a man a horse." ~ Daniel O'Connell
"I miss the city Bret and I live in, Wellington. It's a good place to be creative, in the same way New York is." ~ Jemaine Clement
"I had three stages of knowing Wellington Mara. He was my boss for a long time and he was a father figure. And finally, as we got older, he was my friend." ~ Frank Gifford
"No matter what it is you are cooking, buy the best ingredients you can afford. I don't care if it's a simple salad or Beef Wellington. A quality product stands alone and won't need any dressing up." ~ Joe Bastianich
"It's rather an exhilarating feeling. It's 6 or 7 when you get up and go out into the fields wearing your Wellingtons or high boots. You know that at this very hour half the nation does the same thing, which gives you, with the benefit of hindsight, a satisfaction in doing those things, too, a knowledge, a sense of the nation. I was a city boy until then." ~ Joseph Brodsky
"Students sometimes turn up at my course and they look a bit like they're going to Bali with only Wellingtons and a map, and they never leave their hotel room because they didn't think to bring a bikini. I'm full of bizarre analogies like that." ~ Louise Wilson
"Anyone who clings to the historically untrue-and thoroughly immoral-doctrine that, 'violence never settles anything' I would advise to conjure the ghosts of Napoleon Bonaparte and the Duke of Wellington and let them debate it. The ghost of Hitler could referee, and the jury might well be the Dodo, the Great Auk and the Passenger Pigeon. Violence, naked force, has settled more issues in history than has any other factor, and the contrary opinion is wishful thinking at its worst. Breeds that forget this basic truth have always paid for it with their lives and freedom." ~ Robert A. Heinlein

V filmu Zvezdna vrata Jack O'Neill predstavlja nekdanjega vojaškega pilota in operativca specialnih sil, ki se je upokojil po nesrečni smrti svojega sina, ki se je med igro ustrelil z njegovo pištolo. Od tedaj je bil zagrenjen in ni hotel govoriti z nikomer, dokler ga niso ponovno vpoklicali, da bi vodil ekipo skozi zvezdna vrata. Takratni poveljnik baze, general West, ga je želel v ekipi, da bi v primeru nevarnosti na odpravi sprožil atomsko bombo in uničil zvezdna vrata, saj je O'Neill po smrti sina imel tudi samomorilska nagnjenja.

Po končani nalogi in Rajevem porazu se je v seriji Stargate SG-1 O'Neill spremenil, opustil misel na samomor in dobil nekaj smisla za humor, vendar je njegov humor poln cinizma. S svojim cinizmom je dodatno zaostril tudi marsikatero napeto situacijo, s katero se je srečala ekipa.

V seriji Zvezdna vrata SG-1 je poveljnik skupine SG-1. V deveti sezoni je prenehal igrati, saj je že pred tem napredoval v čin generala in prevzel vodenje baze.

Enjoy National Day Holiday in Chengdu
China's National Day holiday is coming soon. The city of Chengdu launched a celebration in its close neighbors Chongqing and Xi'an,which is themed enjoying the week-long holiday in the Sichuan's provincial capital.
The event was started in the municipality September 13 and local participants were offered free maps of Chengdu and written tips on tours in the city, books on the city's culture and local people's lifestyles by Liu Shahe, a famous Chengdu native writer, as well as gifts featuring Chengdu's culture and folk customs.
The event was led by Chengdu Municipal Commission of Commerce, co-organized by Chengdu Municipal Tourism Administration and Chengdu Culture, Radio and TV, Press and Publication Bureau, and undertaken by Chengdu Media Group.
Extending a warm welcome to Chongqing residents, Chengdu specially designed and presented "Panda Passports," which highlight popular itineraries and attractions in the city.
"There is an old saying goes, 'Chengdu and Chongqing are a family. The two cities have been bonded intimately since ancient times. So it's very natural to invite families and relatives to your home for holidays," said Yin Jian, Deputy Director of Chengdu Municipal Commission of Commerce, when talking about the reasons for choosing Chongqing as the first stop of the event.
Two days later, the event took place again in Xi'an. Kungfu Tea culture, such Sichuan Opera stunts as face changing ... The organizers showed Chengdu's cultural uniqueness and well-known cultural heritage and legacies to local citizens. 8,400 netizens watched the livestream of the event.

Q: Getting a double slash when redirecting for a canonical hostname on Firefox only (Django) I have a Django powered website, and I'm trying to solve the "canonical hostname" problem. I want www.example.com to redirect to example.com. I have tried both techniques found in the Apache documentation here (scroll down to Canonical hostnames).
I'm currently trying the mod_rewrite method, and I have this in a virtual host container:
   RewriteEngine on
   RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^example\.com$ [NC]
   RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^$
   RewriteRule ^/?(.*)$ http://example.com/$1 [L,R=301,NE]

This works for me, except for one case. In Firefox only, if I type www.example.com in a browser, it redirects and I see this in the URL bar: example.com// (note the 2 trailing slashes).
However, something like this will work correctly: www.example.com/news/ gets redirected to example.com/news/.
I only see this on the root URL in Firefox. It seems to work fine on Windows under Chrome, IE9, and Opera (maybe those browsers eat the double slash?). My Mac using friend says it is fine in Safari, but he also sees the problem in Firefox.
As far as Django settings go, I am using the default value of APPEND_SLASH=True. I don't know if Django has anything to do with it, but I've tried mod_rewrite rules like the above on static HTML sites before and it always seems to work.

A: Try to ignore the "/" by putting it into parenthesis, so, wheter it's here or not, the last part should work (and this is not $1 anymore but $2 in the redirection URL):
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^$
RewriteRule ^(/?)(.*)$ http://example.com/$2 [L,R=301,NE]

Please tell me if it works.

A: This magically stopped happening, so I am going to assume there was a problem with Firefox at some point.

Home Police, Fire & Courts Brick Resident Among Dozens Charged in $1.9M Marijuana Bust
Brick Resident Among Dozens Charged in $1.9M Marijuana Bust
Marijuana (Photo: Katheirne Hitt/Flickr)
A Brick resident was among dozens charged in a multi-agency operation in which law enforcement seized approximately 21,000 packages of candy infused with suspected THC, 1,100 pounds of suspected marijuana, and over 6,000 flavored THC vape cartridges, all with an estimated value of $1.9 million.
A yearlong investigation by the Monmouth County Prosecutor's Office Narcotics and Criminal Enterprise Unit targeting what was described as a "large-scale marijuana and THC distribution network operating throughout Monmouth, Ocean, and Bergen counties," as well as parts of New York resulted in charges being filed against 24 men and women, including those from Brick and Point Pleasant.

Daniel J. Riley, 25, of Brick Township, was among those charged. He is facing allegations of second degree conspiracy to distribute marijuana and/or hashish in excess of 25 pounds, first degree possession with intent to distribute marijuana and/or hashish in excess of 25 pounds, first degree maintaining and operating a facility for the production of marijuana, and fourth degree simple possession of marijuana and/or hashish in Excess of 50 grams. The first degree charge carries a sentence between 10 and 20 years in state prison.
The investigation, dubbed Operation On The Ropes uncovered a plan to secretly convert legitimate candies, including the popular Nerds Rope and Sour Patch candy brands, to an illegal THC-infused product. THC, or tetrahydrocannabinol, is the substance that creates most of marijuana's "high."
The illegal operation utilized a warehouse on Park Avenue in Manalapan Township and a hangar at Monmouth Executive Airport in Wall Township as production and storage facilities. The approximate 21,000 pieces of candy were manufactured with unknown amounts of THC and totals over 100,000 individual doses. The THC products that were processed were then intermingled with THC products that the network operators illegally trafficked into New Jersey from a supplier in California. The THC products have an estimated street value of nearly $900,000.
The slew of arrests come as New Jersey has decided to place the legalization of recreational marijuana on the November election ballot. Unregulated sales, however, will remain illegal.
Also seized, officials said, were machines and paraphernalia used to repackage and repurpose the legitimate candies as marijuana-related edible products. The investigation did not reveal use of the local airport to transport any of the illegal drugs to other areas inside or outside of New Jersey.
"The packaging on this THC laced 'candy' is almost indistinguishable from regular drug store candy," said Monmouth County Chief of Detectives John G. McCabe. "Your kids may be getting high right before your eyes, if you are not paying close attention. This illegal operation makes juveniles and anyone who consumes these products susceptible to random levels of drug toxicity."
Seized during the investigation were 1,200 THC-infused Sour Patch Watermelon candy packages labeled, "Stoner Patch" edibles; 6,250 "Baked Burgerz" edibles; 3,111 TCH-infused "Nerd Ropes," individually repackaged in red, pink, yellow and blue wrappers. Also seized were 1,151 Tic Tac-type containers without labels; numerous boxes and trays of Nerd Ropes in various stages of the infusion process; and 6,542 THC vape cartridges in a variety of 16 different flavors.
A total of $10,151,711 in assets, $1,483,859 in cash, and 21 high-end exotic vehicles, including cars like Ferrari, Lamborghini, Bentley, Rolls Royce, and Mercedes Benz, with an estimated total value of approximately $2,783,445, were also seized as part of the criminal investigation.

The advantages of both options First of all you need to evaluate and give a realistic assessment of the condition of your nails. Take a good look at your nails. Do they look healthy? Are there any visible problems in their appearance? Are there stains on them? Are they brittle or strong and hard when you touch them? If you take regular and proper care of your nails and still you are experiencing some kind of problems with them, then you should consider your health condition. The nails and their shape indicate more serious health problems. If, however there is nothing wrong with your health but you think that your nails are not in their best shape, this may be hereditary and not at all your fault. In this case you may consider the option of upgrading your natural manicure with artificial materials.
If you are unsure whether to keep your natural nails or refer to the acrylic nails rising for the first time? Both options have their pros and cons and everything is a matter of your personal choice.
The acrylic nails are very strong and are suitable for people with soft and brittle nails. They would also be a good way to quit biting your nails if you have this unpleasant habit. But this manicure requires maintenance. To keep your cool artificial nails in good shape demands more attention than the natural nails. Before you choose the artificial version consider what your everyday life is, and whether you will be able to keep your nails in perfect shape. Every 2 weeks the acrylic must be filled.
The natural nails are much more fragile, but you can take care of them by yourself at home. With the right products, the visits to the specialized salons for manicure may be considerably rarer. You can change the nail polish yourself. Perhaps it is a better idea to keep your natural nails if you like how they look and you have no problems maintaining your manicure.


I need more time to process today's lesson before I write, but here, have a March body condition photo in the meantime! He's still horrifyingly hairy (I am seriously thinking about body clipping...it's that bad.), so I took this one wet.
Good looking guy, eh? It actually looks like he has proportional legs when the three inch long hairs on his belly are out of the picture.
Teaser: we jumped for the first time since December, and he did awesome!
I'm very glad to hear you say that! I've been thinking it off and on, but not been sure. His saddle fit is changing for sure, and it's something I'm keeping a very close eye on.


The Illinois House of Representatives went home for the night Friday without taking an expected vote on increasing state income tax rates.
Gov. Pat Quinn, a Democrat, had said earlier in the day that he was working to have the House vote on hiking taxes, despite warnings that an income tax boost wouldn't pass.
During a lengthy, closed-door meeting in the afternoon, House Democrats determined they couldn't muster the 60 votes needed, said Rep. Frank Mautino, a Spring Valley Democrat who is an assistant majority leader.
"Everyone has their own reason (not to back a tax hike)," he said. "I think the leaders will go back and meet with the governor and look at what options are out there."
House Republicans also met privately during the afternoon, but they haven't indicated any support for raising income taxes.
Quinn initially proposed increasing the personal income tax by 50 percent, from a rate of 3 percent to 4.5 percent. At the same time, he wanted to increase the personal exemption from $2,000 to $6,000. He reportedly has shifted his stance on some of the details, but not enough to win the needed level of support from fellow Democrats.
The House is to resume working at noon on Saturday.

The I-40 Bridge Disaster occured on May 26, 2002 when a barge collided with a bridge support near Webbers Falls, Oklahoma, causing a 580 foot section of the I-40 bridge to plunge into the Arkansas river. Automobiles and semi-trucks fell into the water killing 14 people, including a three-year-old girl.
At each end of I-40 there is a sign giving the distance to the other end.
Because I-40 goes through the Mojave Desert in California (just like Route 66 before it), its unofficial name is the Mojave Freeway.
In Memphis, I-40 was originally intended to go through the city's Overton Park toward downtown. Several miles of interstate were actually built within the I-240 loop; this portion of highway still exists and is in regular use as Sam Cooper Boulevard, reaching Chickasaw Country Club at its western end. However, public opposition, combined with a court victory by opponents of the Overton Park route, forced abandonment of the plans, and the road never reached the park. For several years, I-40 signage existed on the dead-end route toward Overton Park. Eventually, the northern portion of the I-240 loop was redesignated as I-40.
The California state government has submitted Highway 58 between Barstow and Bakersfield for I-40 extension potential. This portion of Highway 58 was once signed as U.S. Highway 466.
In North Carolina, I-40 merges with I-85 between Greensboro and Hillsborough, just west of Durham. In Alamance County, the highway is also known as the Sam Hunt Freeway. Due to a recent rerouting of I-85 around Greensboro, I-40 departs from it eight miles (13 km) east of the original split.
The state of Arkansas originally asked AASHTO to allow the Interstate segment between Fort Smith and Bentonville to be named Interstate 49, to emphasize plans to extend the route from Shreveport, Louisiana through Arkansas to Kansas City, Missouri. AASHTO refused, and the route opened in 1999 as a northern extension of I-540.
A Business Loop of I-40, in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, is actually a freeway for its entire length, a rarity for Business Interstates. That's because I-40 was originally routed through downtown Winston-Salem, and it continued to follow that route until a new bypass was built. After the bypass was completed around 1992, I-40 was relocated to the new freeway. There are arguments that the former I-40 freeway in Winston-Salem should become an interstate again, and with the arrival of Interstate 74 in North Carolina, many highway mavens would like to see the freeway renamed I-274. This seems to be a logical choice, since North Carolina plans to use the Interstate 840 designation for the northern loop of a beltway that's being built around nearby Greensboro. Other Business Loop freeways include the former Interstate 80 in Sacramento, California and two separate sections of what was once the mainline of Interstate 85 in Spartanburg, South Carolina and Greensboro, North Carolina.
Future Interstate 840 around Nashville, Tennessee was once planned to completely surround the city. But in October 2003, Tennessee DOT discontinued plans for a northern loop around the city. Currently the Highway is signed as Tennessee 840.
The original route number for I-240 in Oklahoma City was I-440. It was renamed to alleviate confusion with Interstate 44 which connects to I-240 at the western end.
In Albuquerque, New Mexico, I-40 was originally meant to replace Central Avenue through the center of the city. However, due to development and public opposition, a path going northward was chosen. The freeway intersects Central at either end of the city.
In violation of Interstate standards, I-40 has at least one at-grade crossing, but it may be entirely unofficial. About eight miles (13 km) into Tennessee, when going westbound from North Carolina, one may see a sign for "Hurricane Road". Hurricane Road is a dirt road whose quality is below that of the breakdown lane. A few of these may also exist in New Mexico and Texas; reports are conflicting.[1] (http://groups-beta.google.com/group/misc.transport.road/browse_thread/thread/b27f488312d2b719/72a8d83e388890f7?q=%22i-40%22+%22new+mexico%22+%22at-grade#72a8d83e388890f7)
The I-25 and I-40 interchange in Albuquerque, New Mexico was given an honorable mention by the United States Department of Transportation and the Federal Highway Administration for excellence in urban highway design in 2002. [2] (http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/eihd/2002/cat1pic8.htm)
