I read a lot of news articles as you suggested above (NTY and Reuters) on my morning commute, and follow your approach. Whenever I come upon a word I don't know, I immediately go to my free m-w.com app and look it up and star it so I can refer back to it later. I also try to use the word in conversation properly ASAP, which I believe help me retain its meaning and recall it later. Good advice. Great article on an important -- and often ignored -- facet of manliness. My personal favorite is the advice to read on a wide variety of subjects. I've been an avid reader most of my life and it has not only increased my vocabulary, but it has taught me many things about this great big world we live in. You don't have to read "War and Peace", but an article here and there from a hodge-podge of subjects makes it MUCH easier to carry on a conversation. It's very frustrating when you're talking to somebody that has so much to say, and so much that they can contribute to a project, but they don't have the ability to express it. You can tell that they're racking their brain, but just can't find the words. It's not a lack of intelligence, it's a lack of communication skills. Those are the people I try the hardest to encourage to take that next step. Good post! I'm surrounded by a lot of writers who

such as to prevent other work being done, and that is holy-stoning the decks. The men have to kneel down and push backwards and forwards a goodsized stone (usually sandstone), the planks being previously wetted and sprinkled with sand. From the fact of kneeling to it, this unpleasant task is known at sea under the title of " saying prayers." // Another cliche begins here. And this is the first mention of holystoning chanties. Capstan shanties. The prose is from 1869 CHAMBERS'S, but the chanty YEO HEAVE HO is a new addition: // In the capstan chanties the metre is generally long, and they are of a more pathetic nature than the hauling ones. To those who have heard it as the men run round the capstan, bringing up the anchor from the English mud of a ship outward bound for a two or three years' trip, perhaps never to return, what can be more sad or touching, although sung with a hearty good-will, than "Yo, heave ho!" [with tune] This is followed by the 1869 CHAMBERS'S versions of OUTWARD AND HOMEWARD BOUND and SACRAMENTO, then the intro to RIO GRANDE, but with a new tune and more than one set of lyrics. Is this another original? She also mentions SANTIANA and PADDY LAY BACK (though, as Hugill would later note, she notes it as if it were 2 different songs, viz. "Valparaiso" and "Round the Horn" -- merely repeating the mistake in CHAMBERS'S). // Another outward-bound chanty is "To

just stood by as Brown became PM -- but that's how we'd expect the clueless idiots to behave. How long before they realise Miliband is heading for a big defeat in 2015? What I cannot forgive about Brown's coronation is the behaviour of the MSM. They got it very, very wrong. Yet they wonder why nobody buys newspapers and television audiences are falling. Your assumption is that the Lib-Dim's and Dave's 'pwogwessive' Towies are not themselves as left wing as Labour. I beg to differ, they are one in the same. The BBC's distaste is based on tribal loyalty, rather than philosophical difference among any of the big three. Only because those of who are sensitive tend to have come a bit unstuck at the behaviour of politicians in the past. Take a tip from me never accuse a life long politician of being a bully if you want an easy time. I did. Mind you I would do it again, having been through the mill once I am a bit wiser and a little tougher nowadays, but if good men do nothing and all that.

I have an iMac running 10.7.5 OS. My girlfriend has a MacBook running the same OS. I have used Time Machine once to back up the iMac to a external 250gB HDD - but am looking at purchasing a larger HDD that I could use to back up both iMac and Macbook over wifi. Also, we are about to go on holiday and the GF is a big camera nut and will take loads of photos. We are planning on taking the Macbook with us, but I'd like a way of backing up the photos we take whilst away to either the iMac or the wireless HDD in case we lose the Macbook / camera / memery cards etc. After a bit of googling the Time Capsule option seems it might help. Also there is something called 'Back to My Mac' in the iCloud settings that I do not understand. Could any of these provide a solution if configured correctly? Please keep answers in layman terms as I am not really conversant in IT terminology. We both have Apple IDs, iPhones, and we have an iPad 2(16gb, Wifi only) if that adds to the options at all - though I tried to backup my iPhone to iCloud and I don't have enough storage (thought the iPad seems to be working as I type). Backing up photos to home when you are on holiday is probably a non-starter unless you can find very fast Internet access. The best bet is a

Formats Book Description Publication Date: September 26, 2003 | Series: Short Circuits What is it that makes Nietzsche Nietzsche? In The Shortest Shadow, Alenka Zupancic counters the currently fashionable appropriation of Nietzsche as a philosopher who was "ahead of his time" but whose time has finally come -- the rather patronizing reduction of his often extraordinary statements to mere opinions that we can "share." Zupancic argues that the definitive Nietzschean quality is his very unfashionableness, his being out of the mainstream of his or any time.To restore Nietzsche to a context in which the thought "lives on its own credit," Zupancic examines two aspects of his philosophy. First, in "Nietzsche as Metapsychologist," she revisits the principal Nietzschean themes -- his declaration of the death of God (which had a twofold meaning, "God is dead" and "Christianity survived the death of God"), the ascetic ideal, and nihilism -- as ideas that are very much present in our hedonist postmodern condition. Then, in the second part of the book, she considers Nietzsche's figure of the Noon and its consequences for his notion of the truth. Nietzsche describes the Noon not as the moment when all shadows disappear but as the moment of "the shortest

full of flavour (or how large) it was. I also met a friend there for breakfast early one morning, which was also a lovely experience, but there are a couple of things to note. Firstly, there is only one option for vegans on the breakfast menu: avocado on toast. It's yummy but if you don't like avocado you might be out of luck. Secondly, they don't advertise coffee on their menu although they do serve it. So, if you are desperate for that caffeine hit, just ask for it. It can get quite busy during lunch so I would recommend booking a table. A Night In India Toowong Ah, A Night in India, how I missed you and your dhal palak! I cannot say enough good things about this restaurant. The service is awesome, the curries are delicious and they know what a vegan is and are more than happy to accommodate (curries can be made vegan and the roti is vegan). Book ahead on Friday and weekend evenings because the restaurant is super busy. Also, takeaway gets a discount and the portions are slightly bigger so if you live nearby I would recommend getting takeway and enjoying the deliciousness at home! They may serve a lot of meat, and they may have some pork dishes in the vegetarian section of their menu, but their Sizzling Szechuan Tofu and Chinese Mushroom with Tofu dishes are so awesome that I will keep going back here for a very long time.

of the atmosphere. But the data went back only 40 years, while we've been burning fossil fuels for more than 150 years, all during the industrial revolution. Just as scientists had used natural recorders to get at past temperatures, they now wondered if the giant ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica might have captured past CO2 levels during and before the industrial revolution. And what they found was remarkable. Trapped in the ice cores are bubbles of air, time capsules preserving the atmosphere of the past. With care, these bubbles of fossilized air can be analyzed for carbon dioxide and other gases. Sensitive analysis of the air bubbles reveals that before 1957, the atmosphere had less CO2. Indeed, CO2's rapid rise starts at the beginning of the industrial revolution. Subsequent research has extended the curve far back in time. It's now established that current levels of CO2 are higher than at any time for the past 450,000 years. MICHAEL B. McELROY, Harvard University: When you look at a 450,000-year record, and the last 100 years, 150 years, stands out like a sore thumb, there's not much question that we're involved in some way or another. And truly, that's not surprising. I mean, we are such an incredibly powerful force on this planet- our species. I mean, most of the land area of the Earth that is habitable, that is cultivable, we've cultivated or we've inhabited. We've moved mountains. We've redirected rivers. We've mined all this coal. We're a global force.

900. The billing reveals that just 144 is the actual air-fare. The rest is charges and taxes. Here is the text of the SoS' speech . It's the sort of waffle you would expect in a wafflers' gathering; the real work is done away from the public gaze. Perhaps it's time that the Irish delegation was cut down to size; 25 from Dublin and 5 from the devolved administrations is a nonsense. Can Nevin repost that link to the text of the speech? The hot-link @ 11:25am isn't opening for me; I'm under the cosh to do "other things"; and other routes take me to irrelevancies (Sammy Wilson at the NI Assembly?). Thank you, Nevin : I now see where I was going wrong. I was searching for a speech with a major contribution on APD and NI air traffic. Blink or sneeze and you missed it. I'm grateful for this thread: it has caused me to re-think my personal attitude to APD. In retrospect I was seduced by the "Green" buzz around it. I now see I was wrong. I retraced to when it was introduced by Ken Clarke in 1994. It had some validity then: Clarke's argument was that air transport was lightly taxed (no fuel duty, no VAT) compared to other modes of transport. He was so convinced by his own logic, he doubled the impost in 1997. With Brown as Chancellor it was first halved, then (2007) restored to Clark's level. Darling made what was little

close eye on what goes on around here, and especially on people who try to find out exactly what happened. From here, Tabuni was thrown into the police van and taken - not to the nearby Catholic hospital - but to this police hospital at least 20 minutes away. This witness saw the authorities bring him in. WITNESS (translated): He came in, I was shocked. I didn't know what had happened and it was a shock. They bought him in, and all they did was wash off the blood. HAYDEN COOPER: This eyewitness says the police were from Detachment 88. WITNESS (translated): I could tell, just from the way they looked. And when they bought him in, the people carrying him were wearing masks. There were two wearing masks, the ones who had hold of him, and they took him into the emergency ward. HAYDEN COOPER: But Tabuni received no treatment. WITNESS (translated): They washed off the blood and he could still talk so they took him to the police station for further questioning. HAYDEN COOPER: But Tabuni received no treatment. ANDREAS HARSONO: He was brought to the police hospital for one hour and a half. He was not treated properly, I think, and he died because losing too much blood. HAYDEN COOPER: Tabuni's lawyer also blames Detachment 88.

Losing your cellphone or laptop can be as bad as losing your wallet. In some cases, it's worse. If someone has your cellphone they can access your apps, which may hold your bank account information, plus your communications via email, text and voicemail. Your laptop probably contains equally personal information -- tax forms, emails, accounts you can automatically sign into. These are frustrating scenarios. Luckily, there are a number of apps and software programs that can track your stolen or lost devices, and in some cases offer a kill switch-type feature for your data. Find My iPhone and Android Lost are two popular apps that help you locate your phone and let you erase all data remotely once you've decided searching for it is a lost cause. But, really, finding your cellphone also depends on the whether or not local police can assist in your search. Having tracking software installed on your laptop or smartphone increases the chances that law enforcement will have a strong enough lead to intervene and also be successful in finding it. On Sept. 14, Derrick Doba, from Mesa, Ariz., had a laptop stolen from his office during business hours. Doba filed a police report but, Doba says, local law enforcement said there was nothing they could do to help. Doba discovered that he could play detective by using the Carbonite software on his laptop to track the location of the computer. He found out where the alleged thief had used the laptop (Yuma, Arizona), and

It's about the understanding of energy balance and a lack of understanding of energy balance that creates issues and problems. And therefore, we all have a responsibility to raise awareness of energy balance and raise awareness for the need for effective active lifestyle programs. SARAH GREEN: Finally, on the issue of leadership, we asked Kent how he had to shift gears after taking the top job. MUHTAR KENT: I would say not a huge shift, but one of the things that I've learned when I became CEO is you just have to be much more careful about the words you use, and how you use them, and when you use them. Because an organization sometimes just takes off and follows a word when you absolutely never intended that. So rounding off, speaking certainly not directive, but much in a more sort of general sense is something that I've learned from the first day on. Probably for the first two, three months, I wasn't aware because the language that you use as a CEO or head of international is not taken to be the sort of rule of the land, whereas sometimes the language you use as CEO, whether it's with a bottler, whether it's with town hall meetings, I learned is something that needs to be in a different context. And that's something that I learned the hard way. SARAH

my videos, such as getting my own YouTube channel and linking them from there. Any thoughts or opinions would be very much appreciated. This week at college has been a very busy and tiring week. I am pleased to say my UCAS form is finally complete; my personal statement is finally finished and has been proof-read by virtually anyone who sits still long enough! All that is left to do now is to ask (beg) my teachers for (good I hope) references, and then I'm all set! I can honestly say it's an utter relief to get it finished, the thought of finishing my UCAS and personal statement has been hanging over me like a cloud, and getting it done feels like a huge weight has been lifted. This week also documented a huge number of experiments, I am excited to say. A record four experiments, three for chemistry and one for physics, and though they may only be quick demonstrates to illustrate a particular point, I still get a thrill by getting hands on in the labs! In chemistry, we were looking at aromatics compounds, such as phenolic compounds and started working on carbonyl compounds. We firstly performed some tests the phenolic compound methyl-4-hydroxylbenzonate, which was less corrosive than pure phenol. We tested it's solubility in water and the pH of the resulting solution; we then tested phenolic compound's solubility in alkalis. We concluded that the compound had acidic properties and though was slightly soluble in water, had much

A good cover letter should be no longer than one page and enthusiastically explain why you want to work in TEFL and why you are qualified to work in TEFL. Your CV/resume should include all relevant experience you have that might pertain to TEFL. This includes any prior teaching positions, foreign language experience or working with children. This does not include your work at the ice cream shop when you were 15. Keep it relevant. It would also be wise to include lessons you've used and books you've completed in your coursework. Stay away from any slang or jargon, as your potential employer may not understand such terms. Be sure both your CV/resume and cover letter are printed on nice paper and are kept clean and unblemished. Include a nice photograph of yourself, that portrays you as a responsible, enthusiastic person (so no pink hair and low necklines).

You can't just run a virus from a webpage in Linux and hope to get away with it for instance. Under windows you can and its up to software on top of the operating systemt o prevent it, unless you;re in a limited account which as I said earlier is simply not practical. There are so many ways in which MS could have prevented thewholesale spread of viruses by email for instance, without being offcious. For instance instead of the download pictures removal for instance. They should have llowed the user to specify Text only email and be **** with the vendors and their pretty adverts. This is just a simple example. Others include the codecs for MP. They should have forced the vendors to use specific known formats, rather than allowing user coding. The web browser should have been prevented entirely from modifying the system, Downloads should only be possible through actual proper links and not through automated scripting. This is of course if they wanted a truely secure OS and actually cared more about the end user than the vendors, this is not the case for good business reasons. i all, nice to see honest-to-goodness minds at work from many angles. if my topic's off, please point me in the right direction. i have Vista Premium, and what bugs me

minds aren't quite sure what to do, and yet that ass hole who lives next door is convinced that what we're doing is wrong. Speaking of ass holes, I'm amazed at the revision of the Depression currently swirling around out there, not only by psuedo-historian cunts (yeah, I said it) like Amity Shales, but also the dissembling right wing pricks (George Will, Jonah Goldberg, et. al) who repeat her fallacious arguments. Mind you, I'm no expert on the Depression--that's why I picked up this book--but neither do I rewrite history to suit my purposes, nor do I cite inaccuracies to make my point, hoping I won't be caught on them. Anyway, this book: It is nearly impossible for me to imagine a book about the Great Depression being better than this. (The book is divided into two parts--the Depression and WWII--and I read only the fist part.) It has no political ulterior motive: Kennedy praises Hoover more than he's usually praised and faults FDR more than he's usually faulted. And with beautifully clear writing, he simply tells us what we know happened. Interestingly, he notes that the stock market crash in '29 did not start the Depression, an I assumption I'd always made. In fact, he says economists still have no real idea what caused the Depression. He also notes that FDR's first wave of reforms were borrowed almost directly from Hoover and made very little impact and that it was the second wave, often known as the Second New

I believe we are friends in the game and your Siren have really helped me lots of times through the dungeons, especially today in the Wednesday dungeon.

Have played like 4 times and I only got one Mystic Mask And sometimes after 5 rounds of battle I only get one mask... I still need one more Mystic Mask and one Divine Indigo Mask to evolve my Berserk. Will be able to play maybe 2 more times before sleep, so wish me good luck.

research. I've read conflicting thoughts about how to do them. Some argue vehemently against creative labels: instead of calling a group The Twilighters, some would argue you should note them as 'John, he's really into Twilight'. I like the labels -- our brains apply these labels regardless of what's written on the piece of paper anyway. The basic info you want to think through are their goals (in life -- if relevant to what you're selling, in decision-making) and behaviour (in life -- if relevant to what you're selling, in decision-making). You may list some of their pre-occupations, beliefs, passions and pain-points. Google it if you're interested. Having established your personas (again some conventions say to use 4-6 but I believe you can have as many as are useful and as many as you can resource against), you may need to pick your most valuable -- the sort of customer you wish you had more of. Perfect world, you'd validate that enough of them exist (or could be created) and match your investment against the possible business gain. Step 3: Insight Other than 'strategy', 'insight' is one of the most over- and mis-used words in agency world. There's a difference between 'I've found some stuff' and 'I've found an insight'. Insights are unspoken human truths, truths the subconscious recognises when it sees them. Often, insights are the arsenal of comedians and poets. A lot of creatives look up jokes about particular issues as inspiration for their ideas for this reason.

'Not necessarily. I am just saying that we may get a deal, which will take us for next year or so. But the question isn't that. I think the question is essentially how are we going to stop what is a critical problem here, an extraordinarily rapid rise in what the department of commerce calls government social benefits to persons, which has been rising very rapidly bipartisanly in the sense that it has been rising even faster under Republican administrations than Democratic administrations. And they are all very closely involved in these new benefits, the only problem is that it is eating into the savings of the society and our long-term growth. And yes, we can continue for the next year or so without any really serious problems emerging. 'But I think it is a highly risky endeavor. The problem is, if we are going to come to grips with this thing, we are going to have to recognize that even if we have got to pay the cost of a significant rise in taxes to get a significant slowing and then decline in social benefits, that is a very cheap price in the sense that a large increase in taxes required to fund what is currently on the books is going to cause a recession. But I think that if we can get away with that is the only cost to this whole problem, I think that is a pretty good deal'. On where Republicans and Democrats will find

Much appreciated by all, Etienne Vendette brought a sense of humor and originality to his conference using his mastery of magic tricks. Thank you and once again, bravo, for a great conference! -Nathalie Boulanger Trust Banque Nationale On behalf of UPA, I wanted to thank you for your participation during our retreat. Your presentation, full of magic tricks, was both entertaining and stimulating. In this respect, the satisfaction rate of our participants was over 90%. Here is some feedback we received throughout the day: Bravo to you for having entertained us with The Magic Road to Success after our dinner. It was a great idea to hold a conference that was able to reach us on a different level. The Magic Road to Success: if we could have your show in our region, it would be very convenient. "The evaluation forms completed by our participants after two days of your training accurately demonstrated just how much your show was valued. As much as they were stunned and impressed by your talents as a magician, they equally appreciated the positive message conveyed during your lecture. Your energy on stage, your humor, and your positive attitude had a definite impact on them." -Mychle Poitras

income). If the difference between your purchase price and the FMV represents a qualified employee discount, do not include the difference in income. However, your basis in the property is still its FMV. See Employee Discounts in Publication 15-B. Restricted Property If you receive property for your services and the property is subject to certain restrictions, your basis in the property is its FMV when it becomes substantially vested unless you make the election discussed later. Property becomes substantially vested when your rights in the property or the rights of any person to whom you transfer the property are not subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture. There is substantial risk of forfeiture when the rights to full enjoyment of the property depend on the future performance of substantial services by any person. When the property becomes substantially vested, include the FMV, less any amount you paid for the property, in income. Example. Your employer gives you stock for services performed under the condition that you will have to return the stock unless you complete 5 years of service. The stock is under a substantial risk of forfeiture and is not substantially vested when you receive it. You do not report any income until you have completed the 5 years of service that satisfy the condition. Fair market value. Figure the FMV of property you received without considering any restriction except one that by its terms will never end. Example. You received stock from your employer for services you performed.

The two best left backs I've seen at Wolves have both been naturally right footed, Derek Parkin and Denis Irwin, and although Irwin mainly played at right back for Wolves he was, and probably still is, a far better left back than Ward can ever dream of being. Parkin played in an era where tackling was still a major part of defending, nowadays full backs daren't tackle and so instead defend space, well most competant ones do anyway but Ward isn't one of them. I have lost count of the goals we have conceded solely down to his poor positioning and tendency of 'backing off' since McCarthy replaced Matt Hill with him in our promotion winning season. Hill was far from being a really good defender but at least he knew the position and his positioning was better. The fact is, if you're the opposing manager, to get at Wolves target Ward. He leaves the most space and he's the one that will back off all the way to the six yard line. Between Parkin and Ward we have had a number of left backs that fall within your 20 year period that have been better.

Virtually every review I've ever read of an anthology film says something along the lines of "variable", "uneven" or "patchy" -- and that seems to go double for the city anthology film, where the subject matter navigates the dinks, dips and cracks on the pavement of urban life. This week's release, 7 Days in Havana , a "contemporary portrait" of Cuba's capital in which Malibu-commercial cliches ( Benicio del Toro 's opening segment) sit alongside poker-faced pieces of absurdist excellence ( Elia Suleiman 's), is no exception. Given the innate quality control issues and how laborious it must be to set up these portmanteau projects, why make them at all? Who exactly do they serve? Money doesn't seem to be the principal reason: they've only done tepid box office in the past. Think of 2006's Paris je t'aime . It made $17m (11m) on a $13m budget. Three years later, New York, I Love You pulled in $8m against $14m of costs. Someone thinks they're worth something, though: the French producer Emmanuel Benbihy , who kicked off the phenomenon in its branded form with that pair of films (but not the Havana one), has already had to issue two legal challenges to rivals allegedly looking to pinch his Cities of Love concept. He settled in February with Marina Grasic , his producing partner on the NYC collection, who had set up a breakaway anthology, Love Berlin -- How We Met. She has now agreed to buy a licence to the

something that Michael Hudson and his colleagues have suggested Latvia use to reform its tax code, a 100% income tax credit for all site value taxes paid (the 100 percentage could be reduced as the economy approaches full employment as a sort of an inside out tax increase) . State legislatures would then be nuts not to switch as much of state and local tax burden to property taxes on land (but not improvements) taxes as possible, since their citizens would be reimbursed on the federal side anyway. Most recent data is for 2008 (which probably isn't any higher this year because of the economy): Revenue from taxes, the largest share of state and local government revenue, rose 3.7 percent to $1.3 trillion. Sales and gross receipts made up the largest share of tax revenue ($448.7 billion), followed by property taxes ($409.7 billion) and individual income tax revenue ($304.6 billion) http://www.census.gov/newsroom/releases/\\...

Q: In the last four races in Formula 1 you will try to make up for previous failures? Michael Schumacher : I think I have proved everything. I will try again as laid out - who knows, maybe we'll find little that separates us from the fight for the podium. Hope springs eternal. Q: With whom did you discuss the decision about retirement?

argued in a report last year, this system "offers the prospect of delivering greater benefits to patients for the same level of expenditure, thereby improving value for money and giving better rewards to companies to invest in the most valuable drugs". At the moment, everyone loses out -- patients don't get new and potentially life saving drugs, the NHS can't innovate and meet the needs of patients, and drug companies don't get the opportunity to introduce their new therapies. Every time a patient dies having been denied a new drug which should be available to them it is a tragedy. The response to this tragedy is, I believe, to show how the NHS can provide for everyone the standard of care which we have a right to expect. Unfortunately the Government's response seems to be one of dither and delay. Health Secretary Alan Johnson seems happy to allow Nice to take the blame, despite the fact that he is ultimately in control of the system. What is the Department of Health for if it is not to ensure that people get rapid access to the new treatments to help them with serious illnesses? The Government should act swiftly now to reform the system before any more people's lives are tragically cut short.

easy to achieve. I can't come up with anything negative to say about this other than that the prologue is too long to be a prologue, but that's personal preference and might not matter once this is in print (reading long chapters on the computer is very tiring). So well done and keep it up! This is obviously a very intelligent piece of writing. I like the poetic imagery of the prologue and although I found it a little slow paced without the incentive of enough information to know what is actually going on at first. However, the plot reveals itself eventually and is adequately engaging. I would have liked a little more clarification on the nature and appearance of the characters as well as the well described surroundings although I assume this is fed in later and has been left out to conceal some secret or plot twist? I can see in some places why you have used foot notes to further explain but I found this disjointed the story and the whole experience felt laboured as if I was researching a project rather that immersing myself in a story. I am not entirely sure what to make of what comes next. I find myself wondering if all this prelude is entirely necessary? Also, the disclaimer that the characters in the most part bear no resemblance to the real people confused me. Why share a name with them then? I also find the use of slightly altered real place

In those days he was reputed to be a relatively progressive Radical but he now assumes the role of defender of an institution which, 40 years ago he said was out of date. He is welcome to all the support he has given today to that institution, and to his new friends. He is welcome also to those whom he met at Mount Vernon, in America. It is well known throughout the world who he met there.

That name should never be repeated in a democratic institution. He brought in Hitler with our right hon. Friend the Prime Minister.

Don Brash may be on the right track and his denigrators (at least on this particular issue) are in fact the real racists who may be completely off track on the real concepts and truth of the actual treaty. The fake or subtly modified and misconstrued version Treaty of Waitangi - (used by successive Governments since Lange's Labour Government and preferred by various Maori and other groups)' could possibly be the greatest reprehensible deception of all New Zealanders. There may be other sites/pages worth visiting on this issue but reading these references is enough to cause great concern about the activities of the NZ Government and other groups since the Treaty of Waitangi became a solely pro-Maori document. It certainly doesn't look like this was ever intended by the people who were on the ground at the time. Don't for a moment think either the Colonial representatives or the Maori who assisted and all those who signed the Maori versions, were not well aware of what they were signing. The implications of having done so would have been clear and perhaps because some could not write more than crosses or ticks doesn't in anyway indicate they were not mentally astute and fully aware. They were all men of their time and understood the reality of the political and social conditions at the time. They did what they needed to do for social and political stability at the time.

to learn in smaller groups with knowledgeable instructors. In the sciences, TAs with the skills you're trying to develop run labs to supplement labs lectures. This is great. But what happens when tutorials begin to look more like lectures than discussions? Or when your lab demonstrator is so overexerted that you can't get her to your lab station when you need her? There is currently no limit to the size of labs or tutorials at this university. Almost half (42%) of tutorials at U of T have more than thirty-five students. Over one hundred tutorials on our campus have more than one hundred students . Good teaching becomes impossible with tutorials this big. Your TAs are often forced to work extra hours without pay in order to offer even the most minimal support. TAs and students have a shared stake in ending huge tutorials: If it's a bad place for you to learn, it's also a bad place for us to work. We're proposing to reduce tutorial and lab sizes through a "cap" system. Under our proposal, tutorials would have a "soft cap" of twenty students. If a tutorial exceeds twenty, the University would have to offer the TA extra paid hours for the extra work required. Absolutely no tutorials would be allowed to have more than 50 students. Labs would require one lab demonstrator for every 25 students, period. So far, the University has just said "No" to our proposals. In fact, they've stated that they don't think that

the federal government has functions that have been greatly extended and touch on nearly all aspects of life for American citizens. Regardless of this expansion of federal power, the states continue to be very important political centres of government activity. Recent presidents such as Nixon and Reagan tried to cut back the power of the federal government and give back to the states power that was deemed to have been taken from them. The current president , George W Bush, has promised to continue with what might be deemed a Republican principle - making Federal government smaller. This "New Federalism" had limited success under Nixon and Reagan primarily due to the confusion as to who did what after reforms in welfare. However, it was a recognition by two presidents that the states could take greater responsibility in how they ran themselves and also that there should be a reduction in federal authority. The importance of the American states as legal entities is considerable. As stated this is enshrined in the Constitution. Today, most of the civil and criminal laws that govern Americans? lives are state laws. State law also covers family law, traffic law and commercial law. The most obvious example of a state?s right to implement laws for itself is the right a state has to either have or not to have the death penalty for convicted murderers. The states have important regulatory functions, laying down many of the rules that businesses and trade unions must observe. States have

How To Link Faders Creating Group channels is pretty intuitive, but unless you're a avid manual-reader, the Link Channels function and the reasons for using it seem to be pretty well hidden in Cubase 4. To link channels, first go to the mixer window and click on one the first channel you want to include (being careful not to click on any of the controls or editable settings). Then Shift-click on the last channel to select all those between it and the first, and/or Ctrl-click to add other channels that don't follow in sequence in the mixer. The channels you want to link should now be highlighted in the mixer. Now right-click on the background on one of the channels (somewhere near one of the faders is good -- but avoid right-clicking the pan pots as this accesses a different function on stereo tracks) and select 'Link Channels'. Now, when you select a different channel, and then reselect one of the linked ones, you should notice that all of the linked channels will be highlighted in the mixer. Even better, if you move the fader of one, you'll see all the others move 'in sympathy'. In the scenario I described above, this would be job done -- you're able, at the tweak of a single fader, to alter the level of your drums

whole land is full of people who say that Jesus is the Saviour and Lord yet Fruit (Christ) is not springing forth out of them because they have refused to die to self. Hence, Righteousness (Christ) is yet to look down from heaven (Psalm 85:11) and say "this is my beloved son in whom I am well pleased". This is why we have "desolation", "Babylon", "Ichabod" and the likes written on many who parade as Christian today. The abomination of desolation is standing in the Holy place Now (Matt. 24:15) and the so-called "Churches" have become a gathering of all kinds of birds and a place of confusion (Babylon). This is a trumpet sound to you as an individual and to the sincere people of God to flee to Mount Zion where deliverance, holiness and restoration is going on (Obadiah 17). The way to Mt.Zion is through death to self and submission to the Spirit of God who is restoring and recovering a people, a body of believers Now (Read Isaiah 2 and Micah 4:1-5 as you go on). Now, let us conclude with some of the practicalities of dying to self as identified by a Writer. "What does it mean to go to the Cross to die to the self life?

envy people what I considered stability, constancy, meeting life challenges amongst people who may have pre-formed judgements (harder than amongst strangers perhaps) In hindsight I cannot compare that with what my life experience has been -- not all moves by choice either. I do however feel gratitude that I've met the challenges that come with life shifts -- losses, difficulty, emotional pain, also freedom, aninimity and excitement. Some posts here also acknowledge that the whole of life is a journey, that all experiences contribute to who we are -- as in relationships, having babies, changes in career or religion. Life guarantees us of change and loss. We choose what we make of it. [...] friend recently posted this article on Facebook, much to my interest and the unconscious interest of 75% of my friendship group [...] ttp://lotustarotblossom.wordpress.com lotustarotblossom It some cases this may actually be necessary depending on each person's unique circumstances. In fact, usually staying in that same environment to deal with those issues can make it more difficult for some people because you're still "surrounded by the dysfunction that has roots within you that causes your own problems". Everyone has their own battle and we are actually dealing with a lot of the same battles together (though we're not always aware of it). Have understanding and empathy for it rather than make judgments... because otherwise your just continuing to contribute to the problem. ttp://Travellingamber.blogspot.com Amber I think this is the kind of article I could have written about

If you're using fine-grained hardwood blocks, leave them unpainted or finish with varnish or oil before attaching the tapes. 3 Stand the blocks on end and, using a sharp pencil, mark a centerline for one tape that will go over, under, over, under all the blocks. Turn the blocks over and draw the same centering line on the opposite end. 4 Place the first block on a table. Attach a length of binding tape (available from any sewing shop) to one end of the block with two brads. The tape should be centered over the centerline. Then tack the two side tapes to the opposite end of the first block; set in each side tape 1/16 in. from the block's edges. Lay the tapes across the face of the block so the two side tapes go in the opposite direction to the center tape, as shown in the top drawing at right. 5 Place a second block on top of the first and wrap the tapes around the block (see the second drawing at right). Pull the tapes snug, but not too tight, making sure no tape is twisted. (If the tapes are too tight, the blocks won't flow when you operate the toy.) Tip the block on end and nail each tape with two brads. 6 Continue adding blocks and attaching apes with two brads to the alternating ends of each block until you reach the top of

And Crow has work for you.' Sadie isn't thrilled when her mother drags her from the city to live in the country town of Boort.

When Sadie is tumbled back in time to view a terrible crime, she is pulled into a strange mystery. Can Sadie, Walter and Lachie figure out a way to right old wrongs, or will they be condemned to repeat them?

It grabs one raptor in its massive jaws and flings it against the ruins before continuing the chase. ( NOTE: The PC demo ends here. ) As the action unfolds, you must use the controls that correspond to the icons that appear on screen. When you press the correct key or button -- or, in the case of the Wii, perform the correct motions with the controllers -- a chime sounds and Lara manages to evade the danger heading her way. If you press the wrong one, or press the correct one too soon or too late, Lara dies. Then the game reloads at the last checkpoint and you must try again.

of qualifiers added or subtracted to your belief. I think to say "no" to the question "can you envision anything that will change your mind on this topic" but then to say "But I will have an open mind when I'm discussing this with you," is a basic contradiction which if carried out would probably look like you nodding your head a lot while someone discussed something and basically humoring that person until they were finished stating their points, but not really hearing any of it, definitely not accepting any of it (because you said that there was nothing that would change your point of view, so how could you accept any of it and not change your viewpoint accordingly?). I think the expression "to have an open mind" does not indicate some facade of being able to accept the fact that other viewpoints exist or a general idea of tolerance while inside being absolutely unchangeable on belief or worldview... that isn't what "to have an open mind" means. The first box in this graph only means to indicate that to have an actual, real discussion where, you know, people understand things at a deeper level, the two parties involved must not hold on to what in essence are arguable facts for any reason other than the idea that the existence of those facts is supported by a flawless line of logic/ evidence.

bit of a star, but at the same time they had a very good teasing relationship with him. LIZ JACKSON: In 1970 Tony Abbott was sent to St Ignatius' College, Riverview. (On screen: photo of school class) This is his first form class photo. The College was founded by the Jesuits back in 1880 on Sydney's Lane Cove River. It's one of the most prestigious and expensive Catholic Schools in the country. ANTHONY CURTAIN, SCHOOL FRIEND: You've been to the grounds. I mean, it's a magnificent spot. You know, there are opportunities that you have there that you may not have at other schools. So, you know, it was... basically it was a privilege to be able to go there. LIZ JACKSON: Tony Abbott came top of his year in form one, form two, form three and form four. In his final year he won His Eminence the Cardinal's prize for Religious Knowledge. Father Emmett Costello says the young Tony Abbott's faith was deep. He threw himself into student politics as a warrior for the right. Within a year he was on the Students Representative Council. Within three, he was the SRC president. The Australian's Greg Sheridan was one of his close friends. GREG SHERIDAN: That was a very left dominated undergraduate life. You know, most students didn't vote in student elections; it was only a small minority of people who bothered to vote, and those who voted were generally on the left.

Icing a cake, it has to be said, is purely an optional exercise 99% of the time. At the discretion of the baker, a cake may be garnished with a pelmet of extra sugar to either hide inadequacies or enhance its visual appeal (ie. hide inadequacies). The icing I'm speaking of here is plain water icing; icing sugar and a tablespoon or two of lemon juice or water, mixed to a flowing consistency. Chocolate frosting, as everyone knows, is an entirely different matter altogether, as it is almost always a compulsory addition to any chocolate cake! From the point of view of someone whose parents were fairly strict about their cake and sugar intake, I must admit this cake was iced with a large amount of childish glee, perhaps to the point of being over-iced. Take that, Choc-Top -free childhood, banned Jacobs gem biscuits with crispy frosting and total and utter lack of fairy bread! Hmm.. Maybe this is why I can't have iced things. Oranges are such a bargain at the moment, so orange and yoghurt cake was made twice this week. One cake served us well over many tea breaks. This iced one will hopefully take us through the weekend. In a Thermomix or food processor, process the eggs and sugar until pale. Add the butter and continue processing until well incorporated. Pulse in the yoghurt, zest and juice, followed by the flour, baking soda and salt. Scrape the mixture into a greased and floured large bundt tin.

the UK, and now in Australia. Each country hitherto dominated by Murdoch media. The Murdoch print media days are certainly numbered, and if the corporate behaviour and standards which have developed over recent decades in the Murdoch media empire continue, the next contagion will be in the small screen world. Marcus 56: 14 Jun 2012 9:03:14am I think the tenor of ABC journalism has been eroded by the fear Abbott may win the next election. Since the Insulation scheme every journalist seems to follow the simple grabs, the negative ones fed to them by the Liberal media managers, even waste months on an abuse of process concerning Craig Thompson. They are neglecting any focus on the positive moves the government has made and leaving us to trawl the Hansard to find out what these 200 Plus new laws mean. I believe criticising the Murdoch press to cover up cynical and gutless editorial priorities is transparent and disingenuous, the ABC is moving to the lazy right. Anton: 14 Jun 2012 9:05:47am Someone may have said it already - but there is a simple solution: Don't touch The Australian - don't buy it, read it - just ignore it and they will eventually go away - hopefully with Abott et al in tow!

Berb's contributions off the ball have long been praised by SAF, who apparently knows a thing or two about such matters, and I am pleased to see Giles point out these aspects of The Berb's play. If you understand football -- I mean really, truly understand the sport, as opposed to being someone who is merely titillated by the occasional "trick" or stunning goal -- then you must surely agree with the significance of what Giles is saying. I think The Berb should stay, and I hope he does. As I've said repeatedly, I haven't seen any problems with Berbatov's interaction and combination play with young players like Nani and Hernandez. And we don't know where injuries, form and the various ups and downs of a season will lead us. CedarsDevil says: I think the blabbering could be described as with out Berba we would NOT have won the league last season...... that doesn't mean he's irreplacable, he's nowhere near the most important players in the team Oh, and I do wish people would stop pretending they are United's Chief Financial Officer. Discussion of whether a player justifies his salary (or worse, his transfer fee -- which doesn't even go to the player), or whether we can afford it or would be better off spending the money elsewhere, is the lowest form of argument. Why? Because it's an argument that requires detailed knowledge of two different areas -- the club's finances, and its football operations -- and not one of

A Simple Example For a quick hands-on tutorial on creating animated GIFs in Adobe Photoshop, we'll walk you through creating the following animation: This simple animation combines the two most common animation techniques in Photoshop: Turning layers off and on, and using the Tween command to animate the movement of an object on a layer. Step 1: Set up your layers. The first step in creating any animation in Photoshop is to build a layered Photoshop file with all the elements you plan to animate. Our example document has 7 layers containing the text for our countdown, and layers for the rocket and flame. Step 2: Create Animation Frames with Layer Visibility.

within 2 weeks the managing partner will have 120 names of people that he didn't know before. Now of course there will be overlap and some doubling up of names across the firm. So let's assume the degree of duplication is 50%. That means there are potentially 60 names of people in businesses that the firm "knows" and has some connection with. Now you're probably thinking "so what -- some of that list will already be clients of the firm since the firm in question is the biggest one in town" Fair enough. So let's slice off another 50% of the names so now we are left with 30 names that represent "green fields." Two important things come out of this challenge. 1. Potential clients that are "known" to the firm. 2. The firm having a much better understanding of their connections in & around the community. For a regional firm to have this knowledge (and to act on it) is pure gold. Down the track I'll share with you Phase 2 of the challenge -- that is once you get the 30 names what do you then do?

has different systems in different languages). The point about money is a longer-term one. If you are able to support yourself through periods of change and no work income, you are probably more likely to be able to become a productive taxpayer with money to spend again. For example, when I moved abroad, a grand spent on language training quickly generated me significant on-going income (which in turn generates tax revenues for the state and spending consumption too). Your life will be far less stressful too. You may also be able to do some of the things that other posters on threads about unemployment say are a barrier to finding new work (eg. moving home, travelling for interview). And you will not require welfare benefits. You also pay tax on savings interest etc too of course, so the public gets its share. Then when you are sorted, you can get spending again! A couple of years ago my company placed a ringer recruit next to me. So I made sure I was seen to help them whilst sabotaging their chances. Made the poor sod look so poor they let him go.

Nope me neither, but according to the Internet Society it is and everyone, it says, should be thinking about making the permanent move from their current IPv4 network to the new whizz-bang IPv6 one. So will you be one of them? More to the point, are there any pressing security reasons why you shouldn't? Arbor Networks has published the results of some research into the first wave of Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks on IPv6 networks, and the good news is that the figure is pretty damn low with just four per cent of those operating such networks reporting DDoS activity. Time and research has shown that IPv6 is not more secure than IPv4. In fact, the chances are high that these are not actually the first DDoS attacks against IPv6 networks at all, but rather the first ones that have been detected and reported. Which is also good news. It means that, at long last, we are starting to see discussions on this kind of threat in relation to IPv6. But in less good news, the reports of DDoS attacks targeting IPv6 networks do suggest that as adoption amongst organisations picks up pace, so does the value to the bad guys. Indeed, the fact that these attacks are happening at all suggests that the bad guys are also adopting IPv6 as they need a platform from which to launch them, and that platform has to be an IPv6 endpoint. That they have managed to compromise enough of these

Before you came to McGill, were you aware of McGill's rankings Foss: Before I came to McGill, I had heard through word-of-mouth of McGill's academic prowess and that it ranked very well internationally. Muntean: Yes, I was very aware of McGill's ranking internationally before accepting the offer to attend. I knew that it was known worldwide and recognized as the top school in Canada. How did it affect your decision to come to McGill? Were rankings a big part of your decision? Foss: It definitely had an impact on my choice to come here: as a student who isn't sure which direction I want my studies to take, I decided to look at the universities with high rankings and a plethora of opportunities for discovering a path to take. Muntean: McGill's rankings were a big part of my decision to come here. I was very set on attending Boston College for a long time, but when I realized that McGill is not only more affordable but also much better known and had a much higher standing than BC, I decided that it would be a more prudent choice.

Two terms as Gov of California and the two decades before 1980 courting conservative opinion makers. He knew who to get on his side. Mitt hasn't come close to doing any of that. Remember Reagan got shot just two months into his term. After that he was downhill but watch the film of him before that and he obviously knows what he's doing and how to sell it. Back in 1980, the Republicans (more moderate then) had a strong bench of establishment types who got on the Reagan campaign and made his administration what it became. Even his second fiddle, George H. W. Bush, was a far better politician and candidate than any Republican we saw in 2012. And Romney picks wet-behind-the-ears Ryan who has become better known for lying than anything else. As bad as McCain's campaign was, Romney has managed to under-perform it. olicies and statements of the previous week (or day) are not due to flip-flopping or the propensity of Republicans to stretch the truth, but are an indication of the beginnings of Alzheimer's?

Toyin Agbetu, whose organisation Ligali campaigns against negative stereotypes of black people, told the Independent On Sunday: 'You don't have to always portray the African community as drug-dealing, gun-toting criminals. 'This isn't the time to be going backwards and focusing on these stereotypes. We don't need to perpetuate more reasons for civil unrest; there are many great stories that don't need to focus on the boy in the hood.' Bennett has lived in Hackney for 25 years and was inspired to write the series when he saw a child dealing drugs near his home. He did exhaustive research for two years interviewing many young people and adopting their language like 'food' for drugs, 'feds' (police) and 'foot soldiers' (drugs dealers on the street) for his series.

empty form of reality -- "reality" is increasingly hyperfilm -- the pure and empty form of film. 73 Beyond this we must add: film offers for us singular demonstration that all media are forms of animation. While the more recent of media -- TV and the computer -- issue a challenge to the earlier of them, saying they are more media than media, at the same time all media are complicit, their more recent forms, increasingly hypermedia and hyperanimation, increasingly immersing the world and ourselves in their immedia, where the media dissolve in the immediate and at the same time the immediate in the media. V. Child's Play I would further propose that -- in affinity with such a Derridean deconstructive and Baudrillardian seductive theorizing of animation as the animatic -- quantum theory and chaos theory disseminate and seduce all the terms, givens, values and pertinences of not only the "normal" but the "classical", including of classical humanism, such as: origin, essence, presence, self-presence, purity, identity, self-identity, wholeness, closure, pure beginning, pure end, simple cause, simple effect, etc., as well as all built upon them. In this regard, I return to two epigraphs in my "The Illusion of The Beginning" essay, epigraphs that mark the impossibility of a pure origin, a pure beginning. Derrida writes: Where and how does it begin ...? A question of origin. But a meditation upon the trace should undoubtedly teach us that there is no origin, that is to say simple origin; that the questions

a contingency plan When you see one or more of the following warning signs at work, it's probably time to dust off the CV, says Personal Career Management 's Corinne Mills 1. Watch the money A pessimistic financial forecast is often the first warning sign. The loss of a major customer or source of funding is another. If you start dealing with irate suppliers who haven't been paid or your salary is late, expect the worst. 2. New chief executive New CEOs are brought in to make change and they like to shake up the existing senior management team and their departments. Make no mistake, everyone's place in the organisation is up for review. 3. Rhetoric alert When corporate communications seem to be teeming with new rhetoric about "organisational transformation", be prepared for a bumpy ride while it's decided whether you are part of the new "vision" or not. 4. You've been merged If your organisation is being merged with another company, beware. It's not untypical for the acquiring company to appoint its own staff to the new key roles and dispose of the incumbent staff. 5. Management consultants arrive When "external experts" are drafted in to review operational efficiency, their recommendations are bound to include restructuring and job losses. 6. Boss suddenly becomes distant If they seem increasingly reluctant to talk with you and get a funny look in their eye when you talk about longer-term plans, there may be something afoot. If they start wearing a new suit

Yes, 'tis the Christmas Season and the traffic is awful, the stores are packed, and folks buy gifts worrying in the back of their minds how they will pay for everyone on the Christmas List come next month's bills. That is only one reason why it is such a pleasure to come across this brief but warmly sharing book HOW TO BE AN EVERYDAY PHILANTHROPIST by Nicole Bouchard Boles. It is difficult to not change old habits and value systems after reading her wise ideas and helpful maps on how to help the world be a better place. Though the book is not a seasonal book, it is one that belongs as a stocking stuffer for the Holidays - a gift that will provide a sense of satisfaction in the coming years as we follow the author's suggestions on how to 'give back'. The format of the book is very user friendly. Each section is divided into how to re-think what each of us has as a potential for helping others, a section of writing that is supportive in suggesting how everyone is capable of being a giver or an 'everyday philanthropist'. The author then follows her mind set changes with practical, easy steps that show the depth of research that went into this book, finding ways to give of

By taking out a credit card early and using it responsibly you can build up a history that will benefit you greatly later in life. Companies such as aqua provide credit building credit cards that will help you to do this. This is the best way to make sure that you are not held back by any failures to make payments that you made when you were younger. Check for errors There are other measures that you can take to help you with your credit rating. First and foremost you should make sure that there are no errors in your credit report. The three main credit agencies are required, by a government measure, to provide you with a statutory credit report for just 2, so it is worth getting one of these and checking it thoroughly to make sure that it is free of errors and that you do not have debt that is not yours attributed to you. If you do find incorrect information then you can contact the credit agencies, explain the problem, and they will act to rectify the situation.

incompatible cultures migrating there. It is coming to a head, as the elites in government, business, the media and academia continually ignore the average citizen. Do we really need to go down this path? Should I have to couch the topic in such a way as to avoid the ABC moderator's knife? DocMercury : 23 Dec 2010 10:42:54pm It would appear then, if your contention of incompatible cultures in Europe is factual, that human beings give as much credence to their cultures (ie: hats, shirts and shoes) as nests of ants give to their pheromones, because this is the only thing which prohibits good relationships between ants of the same species but from different queens. Humans do not (if we aren't including orangutan, chimpanzee and gorilla under the tag of "human") have the same species difference as an Argentine and Army ant, and one might think that therefore humans could get beyond hat-style and fashion sense as social barriers. Perhaps we'd all be better off "stripped naked in public" so that no one can be suspected of hiding anything, and smelling odd. Redfherring : 24 Dec 2010 7:02:40am At the risk of sounding racist, it needs to be noted that the British and French indigenous white populations are about to loose their majorities. Will this lead to social unrest, well it has been happening for years and will probably get worse. It is a social experiment but may in the long term be just how humans have evolved. It is

Cornish system (also known as "Revived Late Cornish"), which used Late Cornish as a basis, and Nicholas Williams published a revised version of Unified; however neither of these systems gained the popularity of Unified or Kemmyn. The revival entered a period of factionalism and public disputes, with each orthography attempting to push the others aside. By the time that Cornish was recognised by the UK government under the European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages in 2002, it had become recognised that the existence of multiple orthographies was unsustainable with regards to using the language in education and public life, as none had achieved a wide consensus. A process of unification was set about which resulted in the creation of the public-body Cornish Language Partnership in 2005 and agreement on a Standard Written Form in 2008. [ 23 ] [ 24 ] In 2010 UNESCO altered its classification of Cornish, recognising that its previous label of 'extinct' was no longer accurate. [ 8 ] This was seen by Cornish speakers as a milestone, turning the language from a state of undergoing revival, to having been revived. The modern-day Cornish language is a successfully revived language with a number of speakers that is slowly increasing, and is becoming more visible in Cornwall as local government and business are encouraged to make use of the language as part of revitalisation efforts. Cornish was the predominant language of the Cornish people for most of their history, and is still seen today as a

I have heard that there are ways that I can use trusts to save my family tax when I die. How does that work? Trusts are recognized as separate taxpayers under the Income Tax Act. Furthermore, testamentary trusts, or trusts created on the death of an individual, are taxed at the same marginal rates as individuals. Accordingly, to the extent that income can be divided between an individual beneficiary and a trust for that beneficiary, the total tax liability can be lowered significantly. A spousal trust is a specific type of testamentary trust that allows for the same tax deferral treatment as a direct transfer to the spouse, while at the same time allowing for the income splitting opportunities described above. The provisions of a spousal trust must be carefully drafted to ensure that the terms comply with the strict requirements

biggest gossip at work walked in just as I said it - so now I feel like a fool, I'm sure it looks like I am basking in the drama of it all, and I was so determined to just get on with things until I know more - I spoke to both of my colleagues and asked them not to say anything, but I guess I am probably already fuelling the rumour mill - Damn it!!!! Then I got home, and whilst changing for bed I counted every other mystery lump and bump (bicep, behind right ear, joint of left wrist, and rib cage so far), which until now I hadn't paid attention to, wound myself up further, then cried like a baby in front of my husband (who really doesn't need me over reacting right now), and we both ended up awake half the night. So now I am psyching myself up for a long day at work, and already I am tired, tearful, and really cross with myself for all of this, roll on Monday so I can either strap myself in, or get off this crazy ride x It's no wonder ur feeling stressed Hun I know how you feel.

local market. For this review, I've only consider reward checking accounts that were available nationwide. I didn't require nationally availability for all 3 years, but only when the account was opened. There have always been local reward checking accounts that have been better deals than those available nationwide. If you were lucky, you might have been able to have a 3-year average yield higher than what would have been possible with only nationally available accounts. Just like with the internet savings accounts, I didn't have to switch to many banks to maximize the 3-year average yield. There were two banks that had top reward checking rates in 2009 and 2010. These were Bank of the Sierra and ViewPoint Bank. However, starting in 2011 their rates began to fall, and those rate cuts accelerated in 2012. I found that you could have done very well with just three institutions during those 3 years. Below are the institutions and when the switches should have occurred for the best 3-year average yield: What if you had stuck with Bank of the Sierra or ViewPoint Bank? Both held up fairly well until 2012. So if you held on to your reward checking account at one of these banks, your 3-year average yield would be pretty good. The falling rates this year haven't had enough time to have a big effect. The 3-year average yield at Bank of the Sierra is 2.71%, and the average at ViewPoint Bank is 3.42%. Those will be going down

as much as I love that. I can't sing about being on a farm. It still has to be really cool stuff that's right for my mindset and my life, and also for my fans. I think we accomplished that really, really well. I'm really excited that that album made its mark in country [music]; my fans get it now. I've branched out and have a bigger audience, and people really do think I'm a songwriter. So it did a lot of breaking ground for me, but now I think it's great that we can take some of the songs and have fun with them, and put them in other markets. At the end of the year, I'm going to Singapore and doing an Asian tour out there, so that's another reason we want some of these dance remixes and stuff, to service that marketplace. They haven't seen me in a while, so probably to show up with a country hat and to try and do country, they'd think I was crazy for sure. [Laughs.] That's the one thing I have to say about my fans: They're great; they allow me to wear all these different hats. Because life is too short, and vocally, I can do it. That can be perceived as, "Well, she'll just do anything," but for me, I am inspired by so many different musicians and so many different things, and the music industry has so many different, great collaborations going on right now -- I

year-old blood leaking from a leg snapped in half when she leaped for water and found it gone, landing on something harder than the paths she'd known through woods, her good legs spinning her crazily toward the center of things. The ramshackle door made a raft of sorts, and he skidded to her side, working a rope for a noose; her sound was that of a child shaken in the night, the eyes stunned open in disbelief, the voice rattling through the windpipe, stopping in time to be garbled by the lips. He told her things she had to know how the rope would seem too tight, how she would bound on home before the morning even spent itself away. The noose settled about the neck and sent a shudder down her back; he moved as shadows move -- his hand ungloved and gliding toward the leg, tangled in rope, to set it free, to let the tug-o-war begin. But she had other plans, her eyes tight on his, a new sound snorting from her throat, her lunge crashing short against the door, giving too much weight for such a mild-wintered lake, and the world gave out beneath them. It was then he knew he cared only for himself, his wife on shore, his children at the window, their grandmother talking his death away from an earlier grief still thundering in her soul, his parents far at home, their phone readying itself to ring-in the news of his drowning; those

playing "left brain" and another "right brain". Took us a little while to get the networking sorted out but it wasn't too much of a task. GB: At the Expo I played as the left brain, so to keep things fresh I decided to be the right brain this time. In a nutshell, both players occupy different spaces but have to work together to progress. Progression involves the right brain collecting these blocks and connecting them together, each one representing a chamber that the left brain player gets to navigate through. Some chambers contain cubes which, when collected, give the right brain a key allowing them to access other areas to gain more chamber blocks to connect together. Of course, none of this is explained so both players have to work together and perhaps more importantly, be able to see each other's screens to understand how they interact. It's difficult to explain! But it is fairly simple once you get your head around it. HM: Now as you worked on a bit already in the expo, we spun up fairly quickly. And during this phase there was nothing of story or meaning offered whatsoever. It was just geometric shit everywhere, a puzzle to solve. The dithered graphics made the gloom seem creepy and the places we explored - our worlds never intersected - felt quite foreign and dead. GB: Yeah it's got a very lo-fi aesthetic but that adds so much to the atmosphere of the game seeing shapes emerging

me on your scales, your scales of light. I'll never dread the bread of our love's communion for in that exchange, that fleshy union you give me the eye of the eye of the eye of your sight. Monday, 25 June 2012 Sometimes it seems that there is so little of the world left - how could we have done it? The world is not TV or radio or newspapers - it is bullet-holed skulls, labourers' cracked hands, the milky skin of virgins, the gnashed teeth of murderers, the quiet rapture of two lovers in a candle-haloed room. So answer me, how could we have done this? And where has the time gone? And when will the time come? And why did Nick Drake die at 26 a virgin? And why is love always only emerging, when it should be right here bursting from the two of us. for ever? The universe is for ever life is for ever, but we are the brief arrangements of cells. I look upon you in absolute wonder, Auden's words ringing in my ears: lay your sleeping head, my love, entirely the human, upon my faithless arm, and Armitage can cleave it from the joint or seam if that's what love means, carry a gun, signal the alarm. You are a miracle, life is fantastical, and I want to celebrate in it with you before the clock runs your beauty down to the wind.

A wasted opportunity ITV and these guys don't deserve to have their careers messed about with for publicity purposes. According to his Twitter account Oliver had to pull out of the show due to his contractual commitments to Rock of Ages. I'm guessing that as this would have happened before the pre-recorded shows aired, he was effectively edited out to avoid any questions about his disappearance... The road to stage stardom twas ever thus. Lillie Langtry wasn't the greatest actress but could pull in a good audience by her reputation. I saw Jason D. in one of the previews of "Joseph.." & he was very weak but he pulled in the crowds, especially the younger people of the time & has gone on to be a solid MT performer. Things change over the years, but the public will always be drawn in by a person they want to see - at least with these shows it is a person who has talent who will get the role, and generally it's someone with training and experience. I saw the touring production of "Joseph.." with Craig, who came fourth in that show & he was the best Joseph I'd ever seen - better than the bigger names and better than the unknown but talented MT performers.

advise to pour any water or oil through it. Some people advise to pour oil through your didj every few month, but we do not advise to do so if your didj has any non-oil finish or artwork on it. The oil tends to slowly seep through the wood and lift the paint or artwork off. This might take several years, but will be a messy affair once it starts... So please do not pour any oil through our didgeridoos. Other people swear by pouring water through their didgeridoo before playing to improve the sound. This is true for didgeridoos which are unsealed on the inside. The effect is achieved by the water forming a skin over the slightly rough surface of the wood. Frequently pouring water through your didj may accelerate or cause cracking. Each one of our didgeridoos is sealed all the way through the inside. This creates a very smooth surface facilitating good sound quality. It also seals the whole inside of the didgeridoo and thus helps to prevent cracking and splitting. So if you are the proud owner of a didjshop.com didgeridoo you do not have to do anything to the inside of your didgeridoo. Possible long term maintenance If you use your didgeridoo frequently, it might develop some wear and tear around the bottom edge from abrasive contact with the ground. We advise that you get a non-yellowing varnish to cover up any exposed wood if you experience this type of wear with your didj.

does go down legitimately, I believe it will not go his way just like how his call for a foul has been waved off time and time again. Now we would not be able to get a penalty even if it is legitimate and what is worse is that we are having trouble scoring goals and defending against counter attacks. He would have did it for the team, unfortunately it did not go his way. I am afraid from now on it is going to be frustrating for him and us whenever he gets fouled. We can all defend him and say that he has been wronged more than he has done wrong, but sadly it will not change the referees mind. I hope and pray that a miracle happens for us and start winning games at home and away and stop leaking goals. I hope Suarez and the others can start winning games and not just dominate possesion and whoop their opponents candy asses.

The application - purportedly for a clerical position with Maryland police - asks for passwords which would allow access to private messages, pictures and even friends' private details Tecca, the blog which found the job application, commented, 'Would you agree to a full search of your home and worldly possessions in order to land a job? If the answer is no, then you should be just as hesitant to let someone rummage around inside your online identity. ' Various online agencies now offer to 'clean' people's online profiles specifically for job applications, and young job applicants often use pseudonyms on Facebook to prevent employers 'snooping'. After a recent scandal about Australian bosses rejecting applicants because of Facebook posts, Mark Bowles, Tasmanian Chamber of Commerce and Industry chief economist said, 'We're starting to see a trend towards people setting up two Facebook accounts so they can still have an account to share photos with friends and when it comes to befriending workmates and bosses they have a separate account, which they can keep a bit more sterile.' Be careful: What you post online may come back to haunt you later in life Christopher Graham, the information commissioner, said: 'In tough times, young people are clearly less relaxed about privacy, particularly in relation to information that they post online - but many may not know what they can do about it.'

Want to be a sports star? Here's how The 2012 Olympics in London are about to start, and millions around the world will admire and ponder the mysteries of athletic performance. Psychological scientists are no exception. Researchers have examined how visual illusions improve sports performance, how attitudes and beliefs about competence determine performance and what exactly happens when we indulge in silly sports rituals. Get Me Out of This Slump! Visual Illusions Improve Sports Performance One way to sink that put, make the free throw, hit the bull's eye with the arrow, is to think the target is bigger than it really is. That's the surprising conclusion of a study in Psychological Science , a journal of the Association for Psychological Science. In 2005, psychological scientist and competitive athelete Jessi Witt of Purdue University played on the U.S. National Ultimate Frisbee team, which won the gold medal at the World Games. Her interest in sports extended to her professional work and in this study, she and her co-authors explored visual perception and sports performance. When athletes look directly at the target without moving their eyes around -- a pattern known as the Quiet Eye -- they make more free throws, putts or other tasks. Can manipulating the size of the target affect performance? Thirty six participants putted to two physically different sized holes, but with one, a projector distorted the hole to make it look larger. The illusion worked. Putters made their mark more successfully to the perceptually bigger hole.
