infected. Again, granted this is a pretty rare circumstance, but it can and DOES happen. I am a Linux user myself, but do not suffer under any false sense of security. NO OS is immune . . . arrogant Apple users found that out a few years ago. Does using Linux REDUCE your risk of getting an infection? Probably. But there is no such thing as 100% security . . . unless of course you encase your machine in concrete and never visit the Internet. There are Linux versions of some free antivirus programs . . . Avast and Clam (Clam is even in the repository for Ubuntu) are two good examples. Plus, there are two Linux rootkit checkers in the Ubuntu repository. Should you run an on-demand scan with these things? Probably you should at least do it occasionally. Avira has a Linux command line version that can be made to run as a TSR/On-Access scanner ("daemon" in Linux lingo . . . actually, any antivirus in Linux can be made a daemon, but the manipulation is complex and probably overkill . . . on-demand is sufficient.) But at the end of the day, it all comes down to common sense (I think somebody here already mentioned that.) My favorite sig quote: "Ultimately, the only protection against phishing, forged Web pages, downloading malware, and other threats is the technology located between the user's ears." As far as getting an infection, I think the best way to deal with it

and there are no rules and less checking for accuracy. There have been numerous situations in which an inaccuracy posted on Twitter has been taken as fact. Just imagine how our great songwriter Gordon Lightfoot must have felt, sitting in the dentist chair, hearing obviously false news reports of his own death. What are the most important skills necessary to do your job (and why)? I think you need a broad range of skills to do this job. You need to have good situational analysis skills. In other words, you need to be able to size up an issue quickly, and make sound decisions about what you are going to say or not say to a reporter. You have to always be building good business relationships and building and maintaining credibility. I think it's important to build a reputation for always doing what you say you're going to do. You need to be creative on one hand but able to stick to a message under fire on the other. I think it helps to be driven and persistent and at the same time, know when to let something drop and move on. . What is the best part of your job? Any perks? The best part of my job is that I never know what any day is going to hold. It's like an adventure that way and who could ask for more than a job that's an adventure?

In fact I got the last one. It's no longer for sale anywhere unless you go on Amazon or Ebay and someone MAY have it tucked away for sale. Extemely hard to get. But well worth the search.

of literature, but these two name-drop like nobody's business, and seem to know everything about everyone! It made the central arguments of the book stronger because they have the historian's eye for recognizing that none of this is quite as 'New Business' as people might think it is, and that it's a straighter line than people might realize from the traveling book suitcases the Victorians used to the flash drives we use today. But it also left this reader feeling just a little stupid. Overall, a great book! Anyone who is serious about learning about this topic, and not just mouthing off about it, should give it a read. Comments: Am I the only one to note that Mrs Cabot discovered the book through a brick-and-mortar store, which paid for its physical presence, for the bookstore clerks who looked at the books published and took a chance, which the store accepted in turn. I nearly forgot to mention the store pays its taxes. And yet, the South American river took the sale. No dirty stuff like a physical presence, competent employees, taxes... Just a nice cloudy webstore. What about bemoaning that you cannot buy this in the US as an ebook, though you can buy it as a used book; that costs the author and publisher money I have no sympathy with the "poor retailer" thingy -- like everything they adapt or die as subsidizing inefficient things for the so called common good means ultimately that someone, somewhere (usually the

How hard is it to find girls around the age of 19-20 who are interested in a relationship that will last? I'm talking like 2 years +, personally I feel when I get into a relationship I do absolutely everything I can do to make it work and show my partner I love them. Re: How hard is it to find women that would like a really long term relationship? I'm 20 and I am only interested in a long term relationship...I love my boyfriend and intend to spend the rest of my life with him not so hard to find I don't think, but perhaps I only know about the girls I know! Re: How hard is it to find women that would like a really long term relationship? People want long-term relationships when they meet the right person. And possibly only when they have been with that person long enough to be able to judge whether the relationship has longevity. Sure, there might be girls who want a long-term relationship but have no one specific in mind, but on the other hand no one is immune to the right person and all these people who say they categorically do not want a relationship would probably change their views if they met this right person. What people want is largely influenced by their circumstances. If a girl tells you she doesn't want a relationship right now it is most probably her saying that she simply isn't interested in you.

just unacceptable. It?s the same with GS?ing bumps. 99% of BASI's (L3 & 4 and even some 1 and 2') can do it, but should it be taken into account if you can?t (or choose not to)? If you can GS a bumps field then why not, it's fun? People do it, just as guys jump off very big cliffs, because they can do it. I once watched a guy in NZ straight line a moguls comp course because he could do it and he obviously thought it would be fun (he didn't win though ). I didn't at any point suggest I would use this in a lesson, but that's mainly because there's a tiny,tiny percentage of skiers who can do it well enough for it to be safe, and yes I understand SEL or SET or whatever you wish to call it, it was one of the first principals of ski teaching I was taught over 20 years ago. And without E there is unlikely to be L. I don't agree either that the instructor/assessor would have run out of ideas, it's just another way of being versatile on skis. Also you could be doing GS size turns but without the same level of speed as you would take on a non-bumps piste, or the bumps could be small with lots of soft snow in the troughs. There really are so many variables in snow, speed, line, bump size, bump shape, prevailing weather, performer mentality and level that

argued this point ( Friedland and Summer 1999 ; Leone 1997 ; Singer and Manton 1998 ). Many other countries are years ahead of the United States in population aging; some will reach the "2030 burden level" as early as 2010 ( Congressional Budget Office 1994 ). The United States will have more time to prepare than most industrialized nations and will be able to learn from these nations' experiences. A second factor that might make the burden of long-term care less striking than expected in 2030 is improvement in the health status of the elderly. Recent data from the National Long-Term Care Survey reported by Manton and Gu (2001) indicates that the disability rate for all elderly dropped from 26.2 percent in 1982 to 19.7 percent in 1999. This meant that there were more than 100,000 fewer disabled elderly in 1999 than in 1982, despite a one-third increase in the population of the elderly. In prior work, Singer and Manton (1998) estimated that a relative rate of disability decline of 1.5 percent a year over the next few decades would maintain the current level of burden each disabled elderly places on economically active Americans. This decline is actually significantly less than the 2.6 percent relative rate of decline experienced between 1994 and 1999. Declines in the nursing home population, particularly among the oldest old, have accompanied these disability trends ( Bishop 1999 ). A more mixed, although guardedly optimistic, picture of disability trends has been offered by other demographers

Lorraine Vass President Friends of the Koala Corporate stranglehold I find the comments coming out of CHOGM rather worrying. Talking about how they are going to make sure that countries stick to democracy. It's like all these Occupy gatherings around the world have gone completely over the heads of the state leaders gathering in Perth. Democracy is rather meaningless in a corporate controlled world. Governments have totally lost their authority to govern. Instead they sit passively waiting in their gated compounds, commonly called Parliament House in the colloquial speech, with their hands out waiting for the lobbyists from corporations to turn up with the latest offer, threat or demand. In fact, due to privatisation, the whole infrastructure of the country, including the military, will not work without the co-operation of multinational corporations. The young are the losers worldwide in this new system. Many of them have a far greater awareness of the danger to the environment and an open society than their elders who are sticking to outdated modes of thought and governance. It is the young who have a lifetime to live on

It comes with hard panniers and a look-over windscreen, but you can also replace these with aftermarket variants. The top-loading and lockable 36-litre standard hard luggage is neat and streamlined. However it is a bit narrow, so it won't fit much gear. Both the luggage and windshield have a brilliant quick-release system that is easy to remove and fit. But the Touring model is not just about comfort and the practicality of a windshield and panniers. It's also about performance. The 2.3-litre three-cylinder engine has been modified for less top-end and smoother midrange. Disregard the 80kW of power (down from 104kW) from the engine and concentrate on the 209Nm of torque (up from 200Nm) available from 2000rpm that provides rip-your-arms-off acceleration. It only has five gears, but you really only need to flick through to top and then roll on and off the throttle for all the overtaking acceleration you will ever need. That makes it a relaxing as well as a rewarding tourer on the big open roads. The Classic features a massive 240mm tyre which looks the part, but makes steering very difficult. It has been replaced with a 180mm so more space can be given over to the panniers. The narrower tyre is disguised by the rear fender and panniers.

Lanus hadn't tossed away two points against Banfield in a game they should have won, it would've been a four-team play-off; IF Mouche hadn't scored that late Boca winner against Banfield they'd be out of it; IF they hadn't had so many injuries they'd *probably* be champions; and IF Tigre had beaten Racing, as most teams seem capable of doing these days, THEY would now be champions... Who would not find this fascinating?

Matthew, you read right -- and have thus already answered Littlekeep's question (welcome to HEGS by the way). As I said in the preview during the week, if teams finish the 'mini-league' level on points, it will be decided by the results between those sides during the Apertura. So Boca would have the advantage over San Lorenzo, were those two to be tied, but Tigre, who beat both Boca and San Lorenzo, would take the title otherwise. And no, I didn't watch Godoy vs. Central.

stated in the article but has not being implemented. 3. Not a single traditional Muhaddith and expert commentator of Hadith has interpreted the above Hadith as it is interpreted in this article. Thus, it will be illogical for us to accept this interpretation. The article states: The other is the hadeeth of Abu Mutee' al-Hakam ibn 'Abd-Allaah al-Balkhi from 'Umar ibn Dharr from Mujaahid from 'Abd-Allaah ibn 'Umar who said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "When a woman sits during the prayer she should place one thigh against the other and when she prostrates she should press her stomach against her thighs, compressing herself in the most concealing manner, for Allaah looks at her and says: 'O My angels, I call you to bear witness that I have forgiven her.'" Sunan al-Bayhaqi al-Kubra, 2/222. this hadeeth is da'eef, because it was narrated by Abu Mutee' al-Balkhi. Response: According to the principles of "Hadith" laid down by the Fuqaha and Muhadithun, this Hadith can be relied on, since it is supported by many other Ahadith and verdicts of Sahaba, who were the students of Rasulullah (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam). It is supported by many "Shawahid" (a term of Usulul Hadith). (I'laau Al-Sunan, vol 3, pg 33, Idara Al-Quran) The article states: A third hadeeth was narrated from Yazeed ibn Abi Habeeb, saying that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) passed by two women who were praying.

Bill. I hope that the House has followed me to this extent: We want a Second Chamber; powers of delay are essential; and the Bill which the Government have introduced does not give any essential powers of delay at all. A great part of the arguments put forward by hon. and light hon. Gentlemen opposite has been to the effect, "What guarantee have we that the House of Lords will continue to behave itself? What guarantee have we got that it will not suddenly go mad and do all sorts of things it ought not to do?" I suppose that anything is conceivable, but I suggest to hon. Members in every quarter of the House that there are things much more likely than that the House of Lords will go mad. There is the risk of an executive Government becoming tyrannical. Let me say at once that it need not necessarily be this present Government. When we are putting an important constitutional Measure on the Statute Book it is most important that we should visualise a very bad Government at some time or other, commanding a majority in this House. I quite agree that it is easier for us on this side of the House at this present moment to imagine that kind of Government in power than it may be for hon. Gentlemen opposite. If there were such a Government, and if the Second Chamber had been deprived of all real powers of delay, this country would really

The sad tale of Odessa Simon Let me tell you, briefly, about Odessa Simon: Odessa Simon was a sniper. She was a complete badass. She had jet-black skin and kept her white hair slicked back, and she solved problems if those problems were Aliens Being Alive. She'd get herself into position and line up her shots and rarely, if ever, miss. Every shot a kill. She was the jewel in the crown of my elite alien-fighting unit in XCOM. Odessa Simon died because I got cocky and put her too close to the enemy. She'd been with me since the start of the game, and she was dead, and it was all my fault. I didn't want to live in a world without Odessa, so I made a new world, and I didn't want to suffer those feelings of loss again, so I made Project X. In my new save, I would never get attached to another operative, because ll the operatives on my new save would be featureless, nameless clones. Project X, and stripping away humanity for my own sake Of course, when you recruit soldiers, they have names and hair and the potential to display a personality, and I had to change that through the customisation options on their profiles.

Fyn peptide by PCR-directed mutagenesis, and the resultant construct was termed pFyn SS -M1. In addition, two membrane targeting green fluorescent protein (GFP) expression plasmids, pFyn-GFP and pLck-GFP, were generated following the same methodology as was used in the production of pFyn-M1 or pLck-M1. For the construction of bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC) plasmids, sequences encoding either amino-terminal fragments (residues 1 to 173, VN) or carboxyl-terminal fragments (residues 155 to 238, VC) of the Venus fluorescence protein were fused to both the N and C termini of M1 via a protein linker (YPYDVPDYAASDIAAA) ( 22 ), which also included an HA tag sequence. The BiFC plasmids were termed M1-VN, VN-M1, M1-VC, and VC-M1, respectively. The use of a flexible linker facilitates complementation of the split fragments when they are brought into close proximity by the interacting proteins. Detailed protocols, including primers and sequence information for each construct, are available upon request. All plasmids were isolated using a Qiagen Midiprep kit (Valencia, CA), and the specific mutations were confirmed by DNA sequencing. Immunofluorescence assay (IFA) and confocal microscopy. MDCK cells infected with influenza H1N1 A/WSN/33 virus or COS-1 cells transfected with the plasmid DNAs as indicated above were fixed with 2% (wt/vol) paraformaldehyde (Electron Microscopy Sciences, Hatfield, PA) followed by permeabilization with 0.2% (vol/vol) Triton X-100.

We call re.escape on that text, which escapes any characters that have special meaning. So .html will be escaped as \.html . line 14 : The first match is the variable name. line 15 : expr is the regular expression we'll match against, the optional second match. The default is [^/]+ , which matches any non-empty, non-/ string. Which seems like a reasonable default to me. line 16 : Here we create the actual regular expression.

overly confident, women are taught to be humble and demure. In order to overcome that in the workplace, it is important to identify your best traits and highlight them. One trait that women possess in spades is intuition. "Most women can walk into a room, read the room, and be fairly accurate about it," said Lisa Johnson Mandell, author of the best-selling book "Career Comeback." She encourages women to trust and pay attention to those feelings, and -- before communicating them -- critically analyze and understand why they feel a certain way about a situation. If you can translate those feelings into objective business-speak, you'll blow the men-folk out of the water. Kimberly Roussel, a successful entrepreneur who opened the Los Angeles restaurant Kitchen 24, the Hollywood club Cinespace, and a catering service, said she feels lucky that her parents instilled confidence in her. She feels that it is critical to have a level of conviction that enables you to take risks and let go of the fear of failing. Once you defeat those anxieties, the world can open up in surprising ways. Dress for success Baring cleavage or showing off your newly shaped Pilates butt is all well and good at a social event. But Lisa Johnson Mandell, author of the best-selling book "Career Comeback," advises women to keep cleavage covered at the office.

Similarly, the relationships between the children of the neighbourhood are too obviously (and occasionally) used for literary purposes; less or more again would seem to be preferable. The overall impression is of events that are too much for a child to digest: fair enough (and even that could be compelling) but what Matar regurgitates (and occasionally chews on) isn't entirely satisfying. There's nothing new, nothing different, and, most importantly, very little that is profound here. It's a sad and occasionally poignant tale, but tragedy alone doesn't make a novel. (This is also a book not helped by the whiff of autobiography, feeling neither really true to life nor like adequately creative invention.) There are some well-written and effective scenes, and some good material here, but the novel as a whole isn't convincing. The fact that Mama and Baba are neither fully realised nor sympathetic characters is probably the biggest problem, but far from the only one. It is a book that feels carefully yet ineffectively constructed. A worthy failure, but disappointing nonetheless.

watching genocide going on in a country when those traditional use-of-force rules constrain us. TOOBIN: David, did you want to add -- SCHEFFER: Well, just to jump, and if I may, I'll try to put something provocative on the table here. (Cross talk.) There's been a little bit too much agreement, I think. (Laughter.) I think a tremendous amount of energy has been expended, intellectually and otherwise, in recent years to try to develop a new, legal theory that will justify what has traditionally been regarded as essentially violations of international law as it has evolved, not only in the last 50 or 60 years, but for hundreds of years, with respect to the use of military force. I understand the politics behind that, but that kind of energy is essentially being directed towards how can we change the rules of the game to basically justify particular types of actions so that we are risk-free legally, both under state responsibility and individual criminal responsibility, to do certain things. I could see the rationale for some modernization of international law, obviously. It always has to evolve. But I think the focus should be more on how do we structure our policies within widely accepted traditional frameworks of international law, but develop a -- an approach to it such that if we are in non-compliance with that law, rather than trying to change it so that the law says you are in compliance now for doing X, Y, and Z, we have

likely aware of, but it's important to keep them in mind. Sometimes the power of "no" can be overwhelming, so just like with good and evil you need "yes" to balance things out. What You Said I posed this question to those of you out there in the world of Twitter and Facebook to find out how you say "no" when you need to. For the most part, you agreed with the above, but there were a few other helpful (and sometimes just funny) tactics that deserve to be highlighted. Here are some of your best suggestions. For telemarketers, just say "As a matter of policy I/we never do business with firms that use intrusive forms of direct marketing, but thanks for your interest." If they persist, you can say, "The reason is that it shows no respect for my time, so your persistence just confirms the reason why we have this policy. Goodbye." For requests for donations etc, if you already donate elsewhere, you can say "I already donate what I can afford each year to (insert your favorite charity here) so I'm sorry I can't spare anything at the moment for your cause" I never say "no" without a good reason. Good reasons are simple, clear, and align with my personal convictions. I feel better following my convictions than helping out some random person or organisations. When it comes to saying "no" to a task work, it's never just "no, thanks". It's always "I appreciate your faith in

reflects that this can be the case as I am a true study in contradictions! That was a very interesting post. Even though I've been blogging for a while it is not something I have given a lot of thought to. I think sometimes its a matter of just writing and not self censoring or editing it just to see what comes out. I write the most ridiculous things and then get a little nervous posting them because I think someone will think they are stupid (especially as a mature person). sometimes I amuse myself and think its funny but its a gamble. But then people comment telling me how funny it is so I breathe a sigh of relief. Sometimes you just have to press the submit button, close your eyes and hope for the best. I just love blogging. It is really the best. Over the past few years time has meant I could only manage a few posts a month. However, now I have more time and revelling in it all again. Thanks for your post, it is really thought provoking. All the best with your blog and its evolution. I found your post's link through Nikki's site. Claudia, another wonderful post.

to a chained CPI." Chained CPI, or consumer price index , is an alternative measure of calculating inflation that would lessen the cost of living increases for Social Security payments. When the president and Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) attempted to craft a deal on the debt ceiling last summer, Obama offered the chained CPI as a concession. Sanders is one of 29 Senators who have signed a letter to "oppose including Social Security cuts for future or current beneficiaries in any deficit reduction package." In addition Sanders has supported legislation that would enact the proposal that Obama put forward as a candidate for president in 2008, which entails putting in place a payroll tax on income over $250,000, in the process creating a gap between the current cap of $110,100 and that new level. Obama's openness to the tax proposal at the AARP forum prompted Sanders to call The Huffington Post to try and get the president's commitment to that approach. "When he says that he's willing to look at changing the cap, that's not good enough," said Sanders. "Four years ago, he told us that, in fact, that was a proper solution, and he was right. I've introduced legislation to do just that ... I think we've got to make sure that we reduce the wiggle room for the president, and he has got to make a very simple statement that, 'If reelected, I will not cut Social Security.'" By Monday morning, the Obama campaign had moved slightly in

for snow castles. The world becomes your playground. After a day of tobogganing, skiing, snowboarding and resolving WW3, snow ball style, you enter your house and are welcomed by the scent of hot chocolate being freshly brewed and the sight of a fresh, unopened bag of marshmallows. Once your marshmallows are strategically placed into the steaming cup of cocoa you're ready to sit down with your family and enjoy a movie. Finally, you're ready to crawl into your bed and hibernate underneath the five different blankets sprawled over your mattress, and rest up. You're going to need your energy to do it all again the next day. A Really Ice Season By Seth Sibble My favourite time of year would have to be Winter, that time when the world cools down and chills for a bit. All joking aside, Winter is a really pretty season. It is the only season typically exempt of excess heat. Places radically change as nature drops the leaf altogether, with frosty fingers or crisp white flakes transforming the landscape into something spectacularly surreal. As for special occasions, Winter does not find itself lacking, with many large celebrations, such as New Year's, Christmas, and all similarly timed holidays. The icy ways of winter triggers many exciting events, such as the massive Ice Sculpture competitions famous for their beauty. Sport fanatics will also find expanded Ski and Snowboarding areas to their liking. Winter is the only time of the year to actually have entirely exclusive sports, such

willing to work for such low rates, guess what . They will pay low rates ." "BlkuePeacock. I agree with you entirely, and businesses of all types must come to value their staff rather than see them simply as an expense on their balance sheet. JJLee. Again, agreed, except it is not a gimmick to pay an employee their true worth. The way to a better job is undoubtedly through better education, and in that respect I think the country needs to get a grip. I would support the return of Grammar Schools for the academically minded and Technical Colleges for those who are not. Businesses are always complaining about what they perceive as being a 'skills shortage'. If that is the case then let us send our most academically gifted students, irrespective of social background, to our best Universities, and provide the best quality skills training through Technical Colleges and Apprenticeships! In that way we will once again be able to produce the engineers, scientists, plumbers, electricians etc., we so desperately need if we are to make our way in the very competitive Global market. Tragically, and it is happening in Cornwall, we are wasting our children's time teaching them the Cornish language; which will not serve them well when they enter the future labour market. It is essential the core subjects are taught and taught well. ie: English, Mathematics, and the Sciences. I know some will disagree with my comments, but time will reveal the truth! The problem

Minister of Fuel and Power and the then and present Minister of Health. In spite of those threats, the other House, acting in accordance with their constitutional right, met during the Recess. That angered, as one might suppose it would, the thwarted spirit of the Lord President, the Leader of the House, and he gave a considerable hint that that was why they were marked down for punishment. At any rate, it may have been quite an important factor. The shadow deepened, the economic difficulties of the Government became greater, their popularity with the electorate, to put it mildly, was not growing, and it became desirable to consider what could be done about things. Remember, the report of the Boundary Commission was looming up, meaning probable loss, when carried through, at the next General Election of 20 or 30 seats to Socialists. Clearly, what was to be done about that was this: To get rid of internal disputes in the party 252 over economic matters, mobilise all the back benchers who think in catchwords, and pick a quarrel with the other House. I speak on the hypothesis that the Government were narrow, selfish and sectionalised. I was pointing out that, supposing it was desired in the end to bring that quarrel into a first-class constitutional crisis, and supposing it was desired to pick a quarrel with another place and to go to the country quickly upon it, rather than upon the economic failures of the Government, how glorious to have

Above all, you are humble. You are neither the kind of "attention whore" who self-deprecates about her obviously beautiful features in order to gain approval that she does not actually deserve, nor the "full-of-herself bitch" whose confidence and pride stinks up every room she enters before she even has a chance to open her mouth. You are perfectly accepting of your beauty, never mention it or show it off in any way that makes you feel good about yourself. You are a portrait of quiet, restrained self-acceptance that never makes others acknowledge you. If you fail to meet any of these standards, you are ugly, and therefore worthless to society.

or one generation for millennia that would allow a visiting human observer scientist social type to view something akin to culture, linguistic change over time. On another note: could generations of the Chinese room experiment not produce any linguistic output variation that a community could produce? This makes the' thought experiment' a bit out there, but it does capture what is problematic about strong AI theory. The claim that there is a one to one correspondence between what human culture does and what AI does as intentional agents. AI weak, as it is currently viewed, 'at least i hope' would be a static type of output that lacks a sense of primordialism, be that true or false, it exists as sense of temporal flow. Nige : 22 Apr 2012 8:04:38pm Surely, although the person inside Searle`s `Chinese Room` does not understand Chinese, the entire system (ie room and contents ) does. Also, when we humans claim to apprehend meaning, doesn`t that just mean we have a certain feeling that accompanies a task or behaviour, related to our facility in that area? Is it not just an illusion that there is something else called `meaning` above and beyond that facility? Over the last few years I have slowly mastered German, and to begin with I was not able to apprehend the `meaning` of a passage in this language. Gradually however, I became able to string words together in the appropriate way, but with much difficulty and with only partial technical accuracy,

Diezel silently said to Shadow as he continued his course towards the darkened warrior, his blade flying towards Diezel's shoulder. Quickly, he fell into a semi-crouched position, his blades extended to the sides. With a half-assed smirk now on his lips, Diezel's body seemed to split into two men, with a sharp hiss, and a vibrant aura of darkened clouds. Shadow's blade hit the ground harmlessly, as the two identical men- who were exactly like Diezel- to the last detail, stood at his sides. "You're in for quite a treat if you think a little cut like that's a trick." The two said in perfect harmony, as Shadow looked at both of them, from one to the other, then back to the first. Devilish grins were worn by the two men, they're keyblades slung over their shoulder- one man bore the Angel's Mercy, the other, wielded the Devil's Will. Quickly, the first being charged Shadow, bringing his blade low, in a sweep, for his ankles; the other, dashing forward and sending in a high slash, for Shadow's neck. Shadow/Max Shadow was in shock by what he saw.. two Diezels! He saw them charging him and he jumped back, but knew he couldnt defend against two of them. When they were about to hit him, Shadow yelled "Eclipse!" Suddenly his shadow appeared infront of him, and was ready to defend Shadow.

rules for their daughters and yet another set of rules for their daughter-in-law. E.g.: The daughter can wear jeans but the daughter-in-law has to wear saris. The daughter doesn't do any housework but the daughter-in-law has to do everything. Maybe the daughter is partying and into discos, but the daughter-in-law can't work with male colleagues. Also the mother-in-law is often close with her daughter's kids but not with her son's kids. Why such double standards? Double standards go along with the mind-set that, before marriage there's one set of rules, and a different one after marriage. This also reflects a depressing trend that marriage is no fun, so after marriage the daughter-in-law has to stop all the activities she used to enjoy before including what she wears, often since she is now representing her husband and his family her attire is seen as a reflection of the family. Just another unfortunate bias in society, which people fall prey to, living up to stereotypes rather than evaluating for themselves what is appropriate and what is not. As for the relationship with grandkids, a lot of factors may come into play. One obvious fact or is the fact that the daughter's kids are not around at her mother's home, while the son's kids are. So when they come to visit their maternal grandmother, they are often pampered more than their cousins. Why are mothers-in-law often involved in dowry deaths and wife torture? When a woman assumes the role of a stereotypical mother

started to emerge regarding the economic health of some European states in early 2008, but here we are, over four years later, and EU leaders are still in talks to define a long-term solution that will enable the indebted states to compete effectively in the global marketplace. Whilst the leaders talk, Greece worries about paying for basic medical supplies. We are now firmly in a unique position that none of us have experienced in our lifetimes. The legitimacy of the two architects of the post-war world order, nation states and financial markets, is now in doubt, grave doubt. Democracy and free market capitalism stand teetering on the edge of a precipice. Everything that we believed in and worked for could disappear over the edge. Perhaps Greece has already silently tripped over the edge with more to follow. Research tells us that in times of prolonged economic hardship, when families struggle to pay food and healthcare bills, people will be prepared to give up on democracy. They will look for strong, and in their eyes, credible leadership. Decisions will be driven by emotion and fear, not by rational thought. One more debacle could take us over the precipice and then the once impermeable wall of democracy and capitalism will fall as quickly as the Berlin Wall fell in 1989. Life at the bottom of the precipice is a dark place, especially in Europe where extremism still silently bubbles away beneath the surface. Right-wing extremism will vie with communism for dominance.

It's weird how attached I am to protagonist Bobbin Threadbare, seeing as I've never seen his face. The game felt enormous to me at the time, as I kept encountering new guilds, each with a story to tell and a different sensibility about the world. The game seeped into the player's real-world life - before playing you were supposed to listen to an audio drama that came on a tape in the game box, and you wrote all your spells ("drafts") down in a physical Book Of Patterns, which listed far more spells than were actually used in the game. This was the first game I ever beat without a hint book, and the discovery that playing a draft backwards would turn the spell into its opposite (dyeing into bleaching, twisting into untwisting) felt like the game world was full of magic and things to try. You could sing a draft at anything, and even sing notes that weren't drafts, just to see if something happened. The story, even from today's perspective, was unique. You quested across the world trying to follow your flock, meeting all these different guilds and slowly piecing together a grander plot that was affecting everyone, and by the end

admit I don't need them all but I keep piles nonetheless. Every time my husband opens the pantry and one falls out, he LOSES IT and recycles a bunch of them, streamlining my pile to 5-10. BUT I have an awesome idea for them that you may or may not have considered. I cut them down the side, tear off the paper handles, flip them inside out and wrap presents. I don't spend much money on wrapping paper and instead use the "kraft paper bag" to create a unique, special-looking present and the paper is repurposed and recycled! Instead of spending so much money on wrapping paper each year while hurting the trees of the world, I splurge on fancy ribbons to make the kraft paper look a bit more special - something rustic and cute for a birthday present, pink/blue for a baby present, so on and so on. An added bonus is (if you're crafty) being able to write a message on the paper, e.g. Happy 50th, Uncle Mike! Hope that helps! And keep blogging! I'm new to the blogging DIY world (started my blog in March) and I'm so glad I stumbled upon Old Town Home. Your writing voices are unique and funny. Cheers! Hi Amanda.

You Have a Spare Room in your Flatshare -- What Age are you? If you have a spare room in your flatshare , potential flatmates have lots of questions in their minds before making a decision...one of the most common queries is what age are you? Today, the economy is down but the rents are too damn high and becoming unaffordable day by day. In this tough economic scenario, many people are deciding that the best way to keep from drowning in debt is to share their flat . This can help in creating an affordable, enjoyable and social living situation. However it is very important to select a roommate who will be compatible with you and who fits well with your lifestyle. Therefore most of the guys check the age of those who have a room to rent. Some prefer to live with an older person, so that they can get the care of an elder and they might get some mature advice in a time of need. However some people prefer sharing with a younger flatmate because they don't want to get the free advice as they love to make their decisions themselves. Moving in with a flatmate can be a bit like marrying someone you've never dated; therefore one should think before making the decision and decide which age of people you are compatible with. yChatter.com has done extensive research by conducting analysis of their users regarding the perfect age of a flatmate.

I love everything about you, I couldn't do without you Whenever you're near me All my days are on the bright side But when I'm not around you I have to find the way to be with you Each night and every day. Na nanananana, na nanananana na Na nananana... And as time goes by And we've seen stormy weather I know that you and I, Were only getting better. But when I'm not around you I have to find a way to be with you Each night and every day I love everything you do I couldn't do without you, I love everything you do I have to find a way to be with you I know you and I, are in Love for a while.

worked really well, and I really like every remix!:) I want to say a special thank you to Motion Sickness of Time Travel for her great remix and artwork! Bowlegs: Do you think growing up in Japan has directly influenced the music you play? Was there a group of you all discovering electronic music at the same time? What was the first piece of musical equipment you owned? Cuushe: Yes. Growing up in Japan has been a massive influence. I think Japanese pop is very unique and has its own subculture. We have YMO... and many other wonderful electronic musicians! My first instrument I played was the piano that my mother gave me when I was 5. Bowlegs: With the EP getting such a great response do you feel that you want to explore these dreamscapes of pop further? Is there an album in the works? Cuushe: Yes I am making an album with dreamscapes of pop! Bowlegs: Finally tell us what albums released this year have been on your radar?

A taxing decision for rentals When do residential rental activities amount to a business? A recent case supports the proposition that owning as few as five residential rental properties can amount to carrying on a business. Lindsay Ng, NZICA Tax Manager, analyses the decision in TRA 012/11 [2012] NZTRA 02. Inland Revenue (IR) has had a win in the Taxation Review Authority (TRA) where it was held that the ownership of five residential rental properties amounted to the carrying on of a business. As a result the rental losses derived, which had been included by the taxpayer in calculating her entitlement to Working for Families tax credits (WfF), were disallowed. The facts The facts in TRA 012/11 are summarised below. The taxpayer is a self-employed artist who is married with five children. She registered for WfF in April 1999. In the course of a tax investigation IR discovered that the taxpayer owned five residential rental properties in partnership with her husband. The properties were purchased between April 2003 and September 2007 with small deposit amounts. The taxpayer engaged a property manager to manage the five rental properties in December 2007. An accountant was engaged to prepare rental accounts and tax returns. The key issue to be determined in the TRA was whether or not the residential rental activities amounted to a "business" as defined in section OB 1 of the Income Tax Act 2004. This is because, under the WfF rules applicable to this case,

This was a hobby of mine that started when I was only 12 and I kept up with it, then once I hit school I took courses to round out my education and enhance my skills. It also helped to take classes in high school that were related to this field. I ended up with a 2 year associates degree in something related, but not actually my field.

real villains get actively shielded. So get into hatemongering and you are in danger of missing the mark... (Nothing new about that, and in visiting Rome's Coliseum this last month I was struck to discover how the population loved to watch murder and destruction in this free-to-enter stadium). Might it be better, think you, to stop invoking that dragon of fear, stop playing their game by their rules ? A little bit more about morality.. Moral codes are tribal - they reflect the values of the chosen group. Thus criminals have different mores than ordinary people, gays have different sexual mores, police and soldiers also have different mores (which can be interpreted as type 2 psychopathy), and ruling oligarchs have a different set of moral rules too.. Star Trek somewhat explored these mores where with the Klingons, Ferengi, Vulcans and so forth they separated sub-tribes within our culture into distinct species and then explored their moral outworkings... I would invite that we explore what we call "normal" past and present, examine what it is we consider to be "inside the box" and WHETHER IT BELONGS THERE. If we are to function from love instead of fear, we have to look at how love outworks in our lives, and at who and where that fear is being incited, and make our changes. 1. Our sense of morality, i.e. paedophiles being a bad thing, is false because it's the result of peer pressure from social workers 2. Because fear has such a

*have chosen for you as religion al-Islam*. Qur'an 3:102 O you who have believed, fear Allah as He should be feared and *do not die except as Muslims* [in submission to Allah]. There are 3 specific prophecies in the Old Testament Book of Isaiah and this is where 'Apostle' Paul's confirmation that *God is not the author of confusion* is relevant. This is because God, having set a plan to send Jesus twice will not then change that plan and allow Jesus to return on the 'road to Damascus' to then give that mission to a complete stranger who Jesus did not know in his lifetime! Another relevant quote here is in *John 5:30 By myself I can do nothing* This proves beyond any reasonable doubt -- that Jesus if he indeed died on the cross and was raised up the third day by God -- did not have the power or authority to return to earth -- to appoint Paul as Jesus' messenger to the Gentiles. That was a hoax, a deception ans a LIE. Which will explains why those who knew Jesus first hand labelled Paul as a lie. Read more on 'Dead Sea Scrolls Deception' 2 of the prophecies in the Book of Isaiah are for Jesus (A.S) and 1 for Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W). *> The Christians will never accept that Prophet Muhammad was ever mentioned in the Bible so I will not dwell on this prophecy -- I will leave the Christians to wallow in their

and social reform Practicable Socialism appeared in 1888 and was, basically, a collection of pieces written separately by Henrietta and Samuel Barnett over the preceding 15 years. 'They were written out of the fullness of the moment with a view of giving a voice to some need of which we had become conscious' (Barnett and Barnett 1888: v). As such the essays do not set out to provide a systematic treatment of the area, but there are 'two or three great principles' underlying the reforms they advocate: The equal capacity of all to enjoy the best, the superiority of quiet ways over those of striving and crying, character as the one thing needful are the truths with which we have become familiar, and on these truths we take our stand. (Barnett and Barnett op.cit ) The opening essays deal with the poverty of the poor, issues with regard to relief, and reformers misperceptions of those living in poverty. Henrietta Barnett was particularly concerned with the ways in which the vast numbers of people who, 'while poor in money, are rich in life's good, who live quiet, thoughtful, dignified lives' (Barnett and Barnett 1888: 48) are forgotten and the focus put upon those she called 'degraded poor'. She was critical of those who looked down upon 'the poor' -- especially those claiming some Christian impulse. She was exasperated by their failure to grasp the nature of spirituality and the place it could have in people's lives -- and the extent to

From small acorns huge oak trees grow, and developing techniques like these produce benefits on an exponential scale as their use spreads and they are refined, and it is not possible to calculate the long-term benefits to humanity. Yet when I told people I was a forester, they would inevitably reply 'Oh, you chop down trees'!!!! arthur lyons : 25 Nov 2008 12:12:21pm Mark Poynter as usual calls the shots correctly. He is one of the very few contributors to the forrestry debate whose articles are immacuately researched, based on science, and generally imnpartial. He should be respected for his efforts irrespective of whether we agree with him or not. If all contributors to the debate were as judicous as Mark, then the debate would have the freedom to move forward toward an outome.

The pre-work has been done over the past several weeks, but the boards were actually being installed in small chunks Saturday. These could be fully operational within a week (speculation). These boards are much larger than a typical video billboard in the area. Eyeballing the one that has some definition to its actual footprint, it's more than double, less than five times . . . let's call them three times the size . . . and they are positioned pretty well to catch a large number of views.

technique whereby a set of characteristics of a particular class of person is inferred from past experience, and data-holdings are then searched for individuals with a close fit to that set of characteristics. Dataveillance depends on the availability of data. Whereas the term 'personal data system' reflects the interests of a data collector, a term is needed that relates to the interests of individuals: Data Trail This is a succession of identified transactions, which reflect real-world events in which a person has participated. Human Identification Identification is a process whereby a real-world entity is recognised, and its 'identity' established. Identity is operationalised in the abstract world of information systems as a set of information about an entity that differentiates it from other, similar entities. The set of information may be as small as a single code, specifically designed as an identifier , or may be a compound of such data as given and family name, date-of-birth and postcode of residence. An organisation's identification process comprises the acquisition of the relevant identifying information. Contrary to the presumptions made in many information systems, an entity does not necessarily have a single identity, but may have multiple identities . For example, a company may have many business units, divisions, branches, trading-names, trademarks and brandnames. And many people are known by different names in different contexts. A variety of person-identification techniques are available, which can assist in associating data with them. Important examples of these techniques are: names - or what the person is

Life in an apartment the size of a double parking space will be on full display today as the public gets its first inside look at the mini-living going on at the restored Burns Block building on West Hastings Street in Vancouver. Boasting 30 micro units described as the smallest rental units in Canada by developer Reliance Properties and partner ITC Construction Group, the Burns building is part of the city's ongoing affordable housing strategy. Coun. Kerry Jang told The Province Sunday that the low-rent suites -- which range in size from 226 square feet to 291 square feet and rent for an average of $850 a month -- were designed with modest income earners in mind. "What we are trying to do as part of the affordable housing plan and housing in general is to provide a range of housing," he said. "Because right now, if you rent a place, it's over $1,000 and that's beyond people who are making $10 or $12 an hour." The city contributed a $50,000 grant to fix the face of the 100-year-old heritage building, $144,000 in property-tax reductions and 62,000 square feet in heritage bonus density. ... "It's for folks who need to work in Vancouver but can't afford to live here," Jang added. "They can live in Vancouver, go to work and save money on cars and all that kind of stuff because they don't have to drive in so it makes a big difference." ...

I usually eat at around 7PM. Eating at either 5 or 9 would require shuffling the day's food schedule around, which is obviously less convenient than not doing so. It's not the end of the world, but clearly a reasonably-priced food option at the Arena would be better. One throwaway line about something not being ideal doesn't mean I can't make do. I won't say I'm sure there won't be a problem, because I've refrained from that ever since proving that it's possible to suffer a season-ending knee injury taking off for a layup during a layup-line drill, but I'm certainly not anticipating it being as bad as y'all seem to think I'm anticipating it being. To be honest, I wouldn't buy anythign from there myself unless absolutely necessary, though if I was taking my 3 and 18 month old then I would probably have no choice - anyone with kids know their tummys DO NOT wait, I usually would eat beforehand if possible or take some snacks along. Not an ideal time to eat but what can you do if the game is at 6.40pm on a friday night? __________________ Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rapidly promoted by mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a piece of shit by the clean end.

Broncos were second on the ladder before Origin. Being the team with the most Origin players (7 of their best!) they suddenly slumped to barely making the finals series as soon as the three Origin games came. We also saw the Storm take a tumble when they lost Billy Slater to an injury which he picked up during Origin II. Is it time consideration be given to either moving the Origin series to another time of year, or giving teams a break during Origin season? Despite falling to a bad slump mid-season as they last that awesome trio of Billy Slater, Cameron Smith and Cooper Cronk to Origin, the Melbourne Storm finally took hold of the Premiership trophy. And this time no-one will be ripping it from their firm grip. There were many highs and lows. Maybe you would like to share with us some you feel needs mention. One fact remains: 2012 NRL will be remembered for a long time.

of " Gen'el Jackson": But the boat touches the beach; the negroes with a wild cry quit their singing, tumble out into the shallow water, drag their dug-out up high and dry upon the sand, and I am left once more with the evening breeze and the quieter harmony of nature. The song, a part of which I have just quoted, is fresh from the sable mint in which it was coined. Its originality and genuineness every one familiar with plantation life will at once perceive; while some Georgians may even be able to point to the very river on which the dusky troubadours still chant it. I am well aware that in depriving the words of their appropriate music, I rob it of much of its attractiveness, and still it is no bad sample of what may be called the Historic Plantation Ballad. The particular naval battle in which Old Hickory was engaged, I have not been able to discover; but the allusion to the bales of cotton in the third stanza may not be without its effect in settling one of the vexed questions relating to the defence of New Orleans; and it adds another to the many examples of the superiority of oral tradition over contemporaneous written history.

the benefit from innovation and technology because these are the areas that will matter for our future. As a country we are well placed to seize this opportunity. It's time to seriously commit to the vision. We may not be able to fit too many more cows on our land, but through science, innovation, and design -- through digital technology -- we can lift ourselves and grow the jobs that will keep our young people in New Zealand. If we look at like-sized countries in the world -- Singapore, Israel, Finland, Denmark -- they hold a fraction of the natural resources we have, but have rocketed ahead through their own innovation and talent off the back of advanced technology.

Wine shoppers most likely to experiment Beer and cider drinkers are more likely to opt for smaller brands while wine buyers are the most likely to experiment. According to a global study into the shopping behavior of 13,000 consumers from the US, Canada and Europe, 40% of cider drinkers and 38% of beer buyers agreed they prefer smaller brands. The survey, which was carried out by Arc and called the PeopleShop report, analysed 15 commonly bought grocery categories and also asked shoppers which product categories they are most likely to experiment with. With the exception of spirits, all alcohol categories ranked highest with wine topping the list -- 71% of consumers like to experiment with different wine brands, compared to cider (68%), beer (56%) and lager (56%). In all instances, shoppers were found to be highly price sensitive and the typical shopper of wine, lager and beer were characterised by Arc as "penny pinchers" -- they simply make their brand decision based on price. Spirits and alcopop drinkers on the other hand were classed as "opportunistic adventurers" -- they are still price sensitive, but they're spontaneous shoppers and love bargains. In a piece of research at the start of this year into UK shopping habits, it was found that British shoppers are more interested in taste when buying bitter, but promotions are the primary influence for lager drinkers, and a key cue for wine consumers. As previously reported by the drinks business , according to the Wilson Drinks Report, 30%

It remains a classic in its own right, based on Richard's own anecdotes and experiences of pre-war medical school and has almost become a social document. The original Doctor In The House film made a star of Dirk Bogarde, and spawned six follow-ups and a TV series and was the most popular box office film of 1954. Starring one of Britain's best loved funnymen, Joe Pasquale and award winning star of stage and screen Robert Powell, Doctor in the House now takes to the stage for a national tour opening at The Churchill Theatre, Bromley on 20th March 2012.

I fall into the savvy group, I will always subscribe via email if I am offered the option; in fact I am disappointed with sites that don't. My reason: it gets delivered, thereby acting as a regular reminder that this is a site I am interested in. The RSS feed requires me to actively look for it. As I have rather a lot of sites I like to keep up with, and always check my email first, this sometimes gets missed in a busy schedule. Just my two penn'orth... This blog has been absolutely INvaluable to my site. I use blogger, and although I was never aware of feeds before tonight, I can already see the amazing potential behind them. Like large-scale businesses, I want return customers because I know that 90% of my "business" is going to come from only 10% of my users. Furthermore, 1% of those dedicated readers will tell others about my site, opposed to about .1% of readers who are NOT dedicated readers. If you could, please follow up with me (send an email to [email protected] ) about how I can add an RSS and E-Mail feed button inside my blog posts, and how I can get people to access feeds via their phones (I believe this could be HUGE!). If I can explain easily and in very few words to my readers how to access my "feed" through their phones, I'm sure viewership will go up a ton! Thank you so much for your

position as the elected head of a law enforcement agency in SF," Oh you're not just trying to be "clear," you're just trying to be a smug ass troll and lay out some bait AGAIN. Are you going to try to get "everyone" on here to rehash the RM story for the umpteenth time? 1,000s of posts have already been written about it. What else is there to say about it other than the same thing over and over again? Dysfunctional people do like repetition...of dysfunction. Sick. How there is some hypocritical thinking going on here. Was Ross's behavior in some way better than Julian's? Is there simply a difference because Ross was punished in a criminal court and from the sounds of things, Julian committed no crime- he just has some questionable dating practices? For the SFBG to mount a serious campaign to keep him in office. Honestly Tim, I totally agree with you on Davis- he should not be on the BoS, but I also think it is hypocritical to call for him to step aside while campaigning and urging Ross to keep his job. It is a mixed message- it is ok to hurt your wife and stay in office- but if you a letch and grope women- six years ago apparently- that is not ok and you should drop out of a race.

but very few - who genuinely do not reinforce the patriarchy. But most men are sexist and do reinforce the patrriarchy through their attitudes, even if in very subtle ways. So would he challenge rape myths or sexist jokes for example if he hears them? Does he take womens opinions as seriously as men? Is he more likely to interrupt a woman than a man? Even if he does these things, he can still be a nice man and be good to you personally Shirty I think in reality it is very difficult to raise boys who dont reinforce the patriarchy. Many feminist mothers have tried and failed. We can try, but the wider culture also has a great influence on our children. I will accept the "less likely to be raped" argument, but he is more likely to be a victim of violent assault. And yes, he doies challenge rape myths/sexist jokes etc. Sio doi most of my male friends. He certainly doesn't get any praise for looking after me, he is moire likely toi be mocked than if the roles were reversed. As for your answer wrt raising boys, I'm gobsmacked. Do you have children? Do you know what the partiarchy is? It is a system whereby men as a class oppress women as a class. Why would it exist if men do not benefit from it? So if patriarchy theory can only make sense of the oppression which is specific to women, what theory Eats gives us

that are currently separated, I take one, my husband the other :) We will be moving them into the same room soon (my daughter is still in our room, but she is pretty much weaned and ready to go), so I think that will be an interesting transition.... hopefully it's easier than I'm expecting it to be, and they can go to sleep on their own once they have each other (although I doubt it). Thanks for sharing! Thanks - we are in a similar place... Sometimes I get to go in to my eldest daughter and snuggle her to sleep, if I manage to finish up with our 2 year old in time! Tonight I went to the Freedom for Birth screening and daddy put her to bed, only the second time since she was born that I have not been there, but it was fine, she fell asleep with him... I think they are much better at adapting to change than we are (I missed her terribly!). We have tried both in the same room a couple of times but they just get really excited and run riot! No easy answers...Good luck with it! x Thanks for that, now I have to leave my lo to go to work with tears in my eyes :-/ Being a first time older Mummy (44 with a 13 month old) and therefore possibly more aware of my own mortality it was all the more poignant. Thank you for sharing x

how the track conditions were. There was a lot of aquaplaning, but the car feels quite good despite not getting the chance to run on a wet set-up. If it?s like this all weekend, we?ll just need to make some decisions tomorrow ahead of qualifying.? Bruno Senna, P2 - 2:01.099, 17th ?Unfortunately we didn?t have a very productive day in the end. The weather was poor weather with puddles on the track during second practice. On my second run, I aquaplaned on some deep water at the high speed Becketts section of the track and from that point was I a passenger until the car hit the wall. It was quite a heavy accident but I am ok. There is a lot of damage to the car but the Williams team will, I'm sure, do a great job of getting it back into shape for tomorrow.? Valtteri Bottas, P1 - 1:59.733, 17th ?It was really wet this morning with a lot of water running across the track, meaning that the tyres were aquaplaning a little bit. The conditions were not easy but I think it was good overall. We got a little bit of direction with the car balance as it is looking like there will be rain all weekend. We made the most of the chance we had today by doing a few flying laps, but the weather was just getting worse.?

million cars stood empty along the beach. I wonder how many people will understand the rich symbolism behind this story. Lemmings By Richard Matheson "Where do they all come from?" Reordon asked. "Everywhere," said Carmack. They were standing on the coast highway. As far as they could see there was nothing but cars. Thousands of cars were jammed bumper to bumper and pressed side to side. The highway was solid with them. "Here come some more," said Carmack. The two policemen looked at the crowd of people walking toward the beach. Many of them talked and laughed. Some of them were very quiet and serious. But they all walked toward the beach. Reordon shook his head. "I don't get it," he said for the hundredth time that week. "I just don't get it." Carmack shrugged. "Don't think about it," he said. "It's happening. What else is there?" "But it's crazy." "Well, there they go." said Carmack. As the two policemen watched, the crowd of people moved across the gray sands of the beach and walked into the water. Some of them started swimming. Most of them couldn't because of their clothes. Carmack saw a young woman flailing at the water and dragged down by the fur coat she was wearing. In several minutes they were all gone. The two policemen stared at the place where the people had walked into the water. "How long does it go on?" Reordon asked. "Until they're gone, I guess," said Carmack. "But why?" "You

Then rearrange the movable cogs so they connect the two larger cogs at the edges of the puzzle. Pull the switch to activate the machine. A cut scene shows the massive stone sluice gate being lowered into place, damming the stream above the falls. With the flow of water slowed, the passageway behind the waterfall is now accessible. CHECKPOINT 25 registers after the movie. Dive or jump into the pool but don't head for the exit yet. Instead get out of the water and climb the rocks above where you got the first cog (to the left of the falls when facing them). Climb the handholds and ledges to the top of the falls. Roll under the big wooden log and follow the path forward and around the corner to CHECKPOINT 26 (same as CHECKPOINT 2). UNDERWATER TUNNEL TO RELIC: Now that the stream isn't running quite so quickly, you can jump into the water and not be swept downstream. Find the underwater tunnel opposite the stairs near the checkpoint. (This screenshot shows the spot.) Swim through to a small room where you'll find a RELIC (2/8), the Kero Mug . NOTE: If the tunnel opening has bars across it, then you missed a switch earlier. Surface, swim downstream toward the sluice gate and climb out on

This healthcare bill will be the same it will cost all of us allot more $$ in the long run. Gary | 10.23.09 @ 3:12PM I would much rather have an insurance person deny my medical claim than some big government bureaucrat in Washington. I can always go to another insurance company. And if that fails, I can find a way to get the help I need, through friends, family, charity. If Big Government is my only option, as it will eventually be IF the "public option" plan goes through, I would never get a second chance once I'm denied coverage by Obama's cronies. Make no mistake Mr. Liberal, the Big Government morons will deny coverage to millions if they are over a certain age or deemed to be not valuable enough to society in their eyes.

brutalising effect of decades as an occupier is visible, if not spelled out, in Walk on Water, whose protagonist has learned to kill without feeling. Besides, the shift in focus has freed Israelis to tell some of the country's other stories. What these films make clear is that there's no shortage: a young society born in fraught circumstances, with a population from every corner of the world, has thrown up enough tension, dilemmas and conflict to keep dramatists in business for years. Whatever effect these tales might have on the domestic audience, they can certainly win over the outsider. Live and Become has villains, but also people who offer our lonely hero kindness and understanding. What it, and all these films, show is a society not of devils or saints but of human beings. Recognition of that is all the saner advocates of Israel have ever wanted.

are often always underplayed. DJfiremansam: If you've read my other writings you'll be aware of the importance I place upon the black scene in the UK, and how British blacks made a massive cultural contribution -- this is pretty much central to my views on how things developed. I should perhaps have made more direct reference to the West Indian influence in this country in the piece, rather than generalise about the 'black scene'. Having said that, it would have needed more than a passing mention because of all the nuances involved -- for example, there was a separation in the 70's between 'Dub Heads' and 'Funk Heads', and Reggae wasn't normally played in the same underground dance clubs that you'd hear Soul, Funk, Disco and Jazz-Funk, which was at the hub of 60's / 70's UK dance culture (although Ska, of course, was popular with the Mods in the 60's). It would be wrong to state that 'in the pre-88 period as much Reggae/Dancehall was played in these warehouse parties as there was Hip Hop, House and everything else'. I agree with some of what you say and, if I was making such a programme myself, you could be sure that all the Jamaican innovations would be covered, including a vitally important component you failed to mention, the Dub mix, which was key to the evolution of the remix. Dub was especially inspirational to the early 80's remixers in New York. I'm sure that you'd be interested in this

On the other hand, sometimes giving the impression of being more capable than you are is the way to go, the way some animals puff themselves up to scare away an enemy. "Tell" your Shields to give off an 'aura' of strong, graceful self-assurance. There is no need to be cocky or obnoxious about it. the idea is to avoid a fight, not provoke one. No matter how good you are, there's always someone better. If you happen to be 'into' visible psi balls, you may find it amusing to make your Shields visible, too, sometimes. They can glow, or take on any color or appearance you happen to feel like. Use your imagination. Most of these nifty special effects take a lot of effort and energy, so you probably will not want to use this variation often, nor for very long periods of time. Among friends, extending a bit of a tendril from your Shield to brush gently against your buddy's Shield is a friendly hello. It is a little like a cat rubbing his cheek against his person, in effect if not in exact meaning. Just how friendly a greeting this is probably varies from place to place, and it is far from universal, so check local customs first, if there are any. Snuggling your mind, and therefore your Shields, up against someone else's is a greeting that goes rather beyond a friendly 'hello'. In an emergency, it is quite possible to Shield another person's mind, in much

as you see me perform salat" (Sahih Bukhari #631) is general and applies equally to both men and women. However, it should be realized that our own interpretation and logical inference of this Hadith cannot compare with the other Ahadith in which Rasulullah (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) clearly draws a difference between the salat of men and women, leaving aside the many verdicts and practices of Sahaba and those after them that are found in the collections of Hadith. The Muhadithun have dedicated separate chapters in their books outlining the salat of women such as Imam Ibn Abi Shayba, Imam Abdur Razaq and others. In brief, this article will highlight the differences that exist in the salat of men and women which are substantiated from the Ahadith and the verdicts and practices of the Sahaba and those after them. Also, answers will be given to the objections raised by the "Ahlul Hadith" sect on this issue. We have not intended to gather all the Ahadith and verdicts of the Ulama on this topic. However, be assured that the relevant Ahadith and verdicts of the Ulama pertaining to this issue are mentioned with there references. Shari'a has prescribed distinct laws for men and women in many issues pertaining to salat. Hereunder, are examples of a few: 1. Men can lead women in salat but women cannot do so. ?? ???? ??? ???? ????? ????? Abu Bakrah narrates that Rasulullah (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) said: "Never will those people succeed who have

The One Date You Need To Know - When Ordering "Made in China" All marketing programs have a cycle. Dates and time lines that need to be adhered to in order to make sure that the overall plan is a success. It is all about developing a program that communicates the brand messaging and develops a strong call to action. For many of my clients, this means developing a custom marketing piece that is unique to them and speaks directly to their brand and messaging. Custom usually equates to overseas and in today's market, that still mostly means Made in China. As I tell my clients over and over again, if you want quality, but you want it at a lower price point, time lines need to be extended. That means being able to look 90-150 days into the future depending on the project. Now comes the tricky part. . . Chinese New Year. For those people who live on a Lunar Calendar, it comes at the same time every year. However, to those of us in North America, we need to be cognisant that the date moves and that production SHUTS DOWN for upwards of 3 weeks per year. This is something that people out West do not seem to grasp. People travel like it's American Thanksgiving, but stay for a longer period of time. It can take them upwards of 5 days to get home and 5-7 days to get back, if they do come back. Projects that

Two on two were fair odds, but this shadow was only temporary, and they couldn't wait for it to dissappear, as they knew that Shadow was no match for them both. Shadow/Max (Sorry I forgot about the duel) Shadow quickly shot out multiple Dark Firagra's at the clones, as they were darting at them he threw his keyblades at them in a spinning motion. Diezel Each form of Diezel dipped and ducked under and around an array of dangerous strikes, each sent from one of the two Shadows. With a flip of their blades, the first Diezel sent his keyblade into Shadow's, which sent it crashing to the ground with a ring. The second quickly lunged forward, and sent his own blade towards one of the Shadow's hips. Shadow/Max Shadow quickly called his blades to his hands and jumped back. He was sweating, and was worried he'd lose. He charged the two Diezel's with his blades spinning in each hand. Diezel The two Diezels chuckled abit before they jumped backwards. They both landed in the same spot, and instantly, without bright lights or any dazzling effects, formed back into the original Diezel. He chuckled devilishly, his keyblades both worn in his hands.

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

Description Mature female redbacks are jet black spiders with a variable red stripe on the back of their spherical abdomen. Immature females are smaller, usually brown with whitish markings. Their tough, untidy webs are usually near the ground with the spider hiding in a shelter tucked in a corner, often guarding her round woolly egg sacs. Male redback spiders are rarely seen. They are small and brown with red and white markings. Redback spiders are found throughout Australia, in drier habitats and built-up areas. They are common in dry places around buildings, outdoor furniture, machinery and stacked materials. In the bush, redback spiders nest under logs and rocks. There is some evidence to suggest that redbacks are not native to Australia. Redback spider bites usually occur when part of the body comes in direct contact with the spider or its web. Life history Redback spiders feed mainly on ground-living insects that blunder into their webs, but small vertebrates such as lizards and even mice can fall victim. Also eaten - after mating - are the tiny male redbacks. A female redback spider can produce eggs for up to two years after a single mating. Eggs are enclosed in 3-5 dirty-white, woolly, spherical egg sacs suspended in the retreat of the web and guarded by the female. Spiderlings emerge after about 14 days and disperse on the wind as soon as conditions are right. This is how redback spiders turn up in new places or quickly recolonise areas from which they

short term memory. Woa, now I gotta reply to this! I live in a nice city in California. We got a good homeless problem. But who doesn't?, well I take public transportation all the time I enjoy it cause like I said I live in a nicely put together city. Well yes at times I've smelled this funk of an oder like a harsh skunk smell in the hoards downtown all the time. Especially at a downtown mall we got its very old (my old stomping grounds) its filled with symbolism of dragons And such And even a nicely sized obelisk at the old theater built in the mall. Well now these days its a major tourist mall And all around are homeless And psychological challenged individuals with clearly labled id cards that state this! So are these possible reptilians hoarding this establishment? Its an different feel for a mall it always has been. I'm always on gaurd when approaching this place. The whole downtown area is odd if you ask me. But I'm a local and probley why I'm the way I am today! The mall smells of funk and has a dark feel! But I've never smelled this at baseball games football..etc or even like say Disneyland all possible places to hide amongst the many. So if the smell is a dead give away do They not hoard these other areas? Or my idea is They got other give aways but not all of the give aways are

I have recently started taking Urso..but if I am honest I think this has all been too slow, I should have had the relevant TPMT testdone before I was discharged from hospital and been taking the azathioprine from the beginning.....If it is my bilirubin level that is raised then it means my disease has progressed a little and that is worrying. I wondered if any one else has any new symptoms orareasof pain/discomfort? I know I am waiting to have my gall bladder removed and the pain associated with that is obvious as it radiates into my right shoulder....but I now have an odd pain/ache in my leftside just under my bust which radiates into my back..this is new and I have had it about 3 days now, any suggestions from
