that's my number one job: To be loved and adored by the Father. My days are filled with ... discovering more ways to connect with the heart of my Papa, laughing out loud, singing/praying (all the time), dreaming with God, brainstorming creative ideas on releasing goodness and hope to this world, interviewing folks for my radio broadcasts/anything brilliant, stopping for "the one," going on "treasure hunts" (finding people whom the Lord highlights in my heart) and smearing love on them ... HAHAHA! I wish ... I had more time to tell you of the many stories of His goodness. I could know God for other people. I could bottle up hope and give a dose to everyone in the world. Today I give myself permission ... to breathe to be still, to be at rest to be childlike in my awe and wonder to receive even a greater dose of His affection to take pauses throughout the day to intentionally praise Him to speak life to others to listen and draw out people's stories to laugh out loud -- even more (especially in the face of challenges orproblems). ______________ About Christina: Christina Crook is founder of SeekingEve.ca : a perpetual search for honest faith.

to do. This is the natural function of history, of history reduced to its lowest terms, of history conceived as the memory of things said and done: memory of things said and done (whether in our immediate yesterdays or in the long past of mankind), running hand in hand with the anticipation of things to be said and done, enables us, each to the extent of his knowledge and imagination, to be intelligent, to push back the narrow confines of the fleeting present moment so that what we are doing may be judged in the light of what we have done and what we hope to do. In this sense all living history, as Croce says, is contemporaneous: in so far as we think the past (and otherwise the past, however fully related in documents, is nothing to us) it becomes an integral and living part of our present world of semblance. It must then be obvious that living history, the ideal series of events that we affirm and hold in memory, since it is so intimately associated with what we are doing and with what we hope to do, can not be precisely the same for all at any given time, or the same for one generation as for another. History in this sense can not be reduced to a verifiable set of statistics or formulated in terms of universally valid mathematical formulas. It is rather an imaginative creation, a personal possession which each one of us, Mr. Everyman,

you ended up being half an hour late for clocking on, and of course you'd get docked. And they did it with just a notice on the wall, they didn't talk to anybody about it ... Well, one person got caught and of course all hell broke loose. When the shop steward went up to talk to the management, he was rude to him, so ... it was 'Right, everybody is out' and we just dropped our tools and walked out, and we were all standing out on the pavement. And I think we were out for about a week over that. While the Monthly Journal (and former officials like John Halfpenny) might attribute successful militancy to the "splendid leadership" provided by union officials, it was much more often the case, as the journal's own pages attest, that strike action occurred spontaneously. One of the best indicators of this phenomenon in the metal industry was the letters sent by union organisers to the higher echelons on the trade union movement, asking for endorsement of disputes that had already taken place and been won at the workplace. Reflecting a common class position across the gender divide, this tradition of militancy was shared by women workers, and was not confined to issues such as equal pay. In the same period in which overt sexism was common in the Monthly Journal , there were also reports which in some senses contradicted that sexism. For example, a strike at Iplex Plastics in Elizabeth, South

He said Chester was going to give me a call. I had seen him play before when he was at Illinois. I was cool with it. I was sitting on my couch watching TV. He was just asking me about my situation. I said, 'Yeah, I'll stick around. I love K-State.'" The rest, as they say, is history. Weber became K-State's head coach a few days later, and he was so impressed by Frazier's connections (and overall basketball knowledge) that he figured he would be a good recruiter that he offered him a position on his staff. Frazier moved to Manhattan earlier this week and is excited to get started. He was also nice enough to share a few of his thoughts on his new gig. What attracted you to this job? Being an assistant at this level was an opportunity I couldn't pass up. You know, when I was in Germany playing Coach and I kind of talked about it. But as time went on we got more serious about it. No regrets? No, I know I wanted to coach even though I still had the opportunity to play. But in the future I think coaching will benefit me more sooner rather than later.

Deepwater was documented as "a nightmare," remember (Brian somebody, right?), and the cementing was found to not have been handled particularly well. Yet, they pumped at the designed capacity until the rig suffered the spectacular failure. We could argue whether if the fault "really" lies with BP or Halliburton, but with Halliburton's own track record (known contaminated water supplied to soldiers, for example), anybody hiring them (and not bothering to monitor the work -- skipping the bond log, in this case) should share the blame as you would if, say, you designed a carbon credit exchange with the help of Ken Lay. There were other cost-cutting moves that were considered risky by anybody who looked at them at the time. It's a pattern. I hear what you're saying about a business needing to mitigate risks, but I wasn't talking in the abstract; the evidence is simply not in your favor. There's a definite trend toward deliberately increasing the risk and settling cases or diluting blame when a lawsuit is possible. As for energy use, there's also a parallel problem with the automotive industry, isn't there? Doubling the price for an electric car (which is four motors with wheels, a battery, and a chair, basically) is clearly not meant to push people towards conservation. And

Posted by: Christine on September 11, 2008 1:43 AM In December last year I had my first solo overseas backpacking trip - destination south east asia. Trip went for 6 weeks and took in Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia and Bangkok. I could not describe how horrified I was when I read that contiki will rear its head in South East Asia. My immediate thought was that the beauty and innocence of Luang Prabang will be decimated by culturally insensitive hooliganism. That is not to say that there are not already western hooligans passing through Luang Prabang and likewise places. Unfortunately there are, however I feel that contiki with substantially increase this phenomenon. Ben is 100% right when he talks about the bonds you form with fellow travelers, particularly as you stand out alot more as a backpacker in asia than you do in Europe. There is a feeling that "we're all in this together". Ben is also dead right about running into the same people multiple times in the same village.

Microsoft released Windows 98, which included software support for the new technologies. Second, OEMs wanted Windows 98 to be released in time to drive sales of PC systems during the back-to-school and holiday selling seasons. Nevertheless, Maritz agreed with Allchin's point that synchronizing the release of Windows 98 with Internet Explorer was "the only thing that makes sense even if OEMs suffer." 168. Once Maritz had decided that Allchin was right, he needed to instruct the relevant Microsoft employees to delay the release of Windows 98 long enough so that it could be shipped with Internet Explorer 4.0 tightly bound to it. When one executive asked on January 7, 1997 for confirmation that "memphis is going to hold for IE4, even if it puts memphis out of the xmas oem window," Maritz responded affirmatively and explained, The major reason for this is . . . to combat Nscp, we have to [ ] position the browser as "going away" and do deeper integration on Windows. The stronger way to communicate this is to have a ?new release' of Windows and make a big deal out of it. . . . IE integration will be [the] most compelling feature of Memphis. Thus, Microsoft delayed the debut of numerous features, including support for new hardware devices, that Microsoft believed consumers would find beneficial, simply in order to protect the applications barrier to entry. 169.

Without hesitation Serana reanimates the fallen necromancer and the turret erupts in fire, ice and lightning bolts. Within a few moments the quest completion message appears on the screen indicating all the necromancers are dead and the binding ritual disrupted. Do we need DAWNGUARD? I vote HELL YEAH!

child like that..always rewarding bad behaviour..its exactly what happened during the 2008 financial crisis..bad behaviour by large banks was rewarded yet again by a massive bailout from the taxpyaer. What lesson does that teach the big banks..it tells them they can do whatever they want as there is no consequences. Here in Quebec the anglophone community has been rewarding bad behaviour from the Liberals for decades..wake up people!!! I say given the massive debt we have that we can no longer afford to play it safe and hope the Liberals fix the looming financial crisis..they have proven they cant. Hence the only viable option right now is the CAQ..yes Legault was a seperatist but he is no longer and even if he backs seperartion again it wont be for 10 years. For 10 years we will have a party that will focus its energy on the real problems facing Quebec. Neither the PQ nor the Liberals have done this..although Lucien Bouchard tried..give him credit for it. FROM ED BROWN Has anyone noticed that Legault is not speaking out. For the guy who wanted the corruption fighter Ducheneau at his side he says damn little about the subject. What has he said recently about Canada. Is it all forgotten now that he got the English votes he wanted. By the way Yan, I'll tell you what the Liberals did. They kept the PQ off our backs through a myriad of elections.

Good song | Reviewer: Music is life | 5/10/12 This song was not first recorded by Celine Dion. It was originally recorded by Roy Orbison, but was not released as a Orbison song until his death. Before it was released as a Orbison song, a legend by the name Cyndi Lauper recorded and released the song. Not trying to discredit Dion, but Credit should be given where it is due. And it's a wonderful song. Appreciation | Reviewer: Nkwegu sunday | 5/8/12 I say kudos to celine dion and the producer who made this album a reality.

throw a forehand. When you want to throw, start by stepping your right foot diagonally forward. Step as far as you can while remaining comfortably balanced with your pivot foot stationary. As you step, whip your elbow and hand forwards and snap your wrist. Release the disc as your foot touches the ground. Go through the throwing motion and try to snap your wrist at the same time as your knee bends forwards. Pay attention to how it feels when you snap your wrist too early or too late. Too early, and you are unstable with one foot in the air; your accuracy will be affected. Too late, and you will have lost the momentum provided by stepping. You will be throwing with just your arm and your power will be reduced. Practice until your knee, elbow, and wrist come forward in a single motion. Go slowly through the motion and freeze at the point where you would release the disc. Look at where your arm is pointing. This is where the disc will go. Rotate on your pivot foot and step in different directions. The direction in which you step will determine the direction of your throws. After you step, look at where your right foot is pointing. This is also where your arm will point and where the disc will go. Visualize a receiver running to different spots. To throw to each one of these spots, your arm will have to finish in that direction. Step so your

Alexander posed repeated questions fingering Mr Beasley as the mastermind, each time beginning, ''Jack' was the one ...' In her opening statement, Ms Pelphrey said Mr Rafferty chose to participate in the three killings and Mr Davis' wounding, even if he wasn't the triggerman. Mr Rafferty, of nearby Stow, kept his head down and took notes as the alleged plot was detailed for the jury. Ms Pelphrey showed the jury timelines for each victim and said they had been desperate to improve their lives or find 'the light at the end of the tunnel.' A photo of each victim's grave was shown on a big TV screen as she spoke. The defendant was a quick student of the alleged plot and 'a student of violent crime,' Ms Pelphrey told jurors. Victims: As well as Ralph Geiger, David Pauley (left) was found buried in a shallow grave last year. Police later unearthed the body of Timothy Kern (right) 'He made the choices he wanted to make,' she said. Mr Alexander told jurors Ms Rafferty never participated voluntarily and was afraid that Beasley would kill him and his relatives if he didn't cooperate. As for the alleged plot to lure job-seekers, Mr Alexander said, Ms Rafferty 'had no idea any of this was going on.' The first killing came without warning for Mr Rafferty, according to Mr Alexander. Afterward, Mr Beasley warned Mr Rafferty to keep quiet by reminding him that he knew where Mr Rafferty's mother and sister lived, the defense

USB 3.0 can offer significantly better speeds than USB 2.0 (up to 254MBps in our tests so far), providing that what you're plugging in is capable of those speeds. Thunderbolt is really only found on Apple computers at this stage, and is the fastest connection on the block; it's expected to hit Windows-based laptops in Q2 2012. It can also double as a DisplayPort connection, meaning that it can be plugged in to some modern monitors. Thunderbolt's accessories are extremely few at this point in time, limited to some displays and high-speed storage applications. Cables are also expensive, at AU$55 a pop. For most users, it won't be important right now, but this may change over time. Like a PCI-Express slot in a desktop, an ExpressCard slot provides expansion opportunities. Additional USB, FireWire, SATA and Ethernet ports, sound cards, wireless cards and TV tuners are all available in ExpressCard format. It comes in two sizes -- 54 and 34, representing how many millimetres wide they are. Both sizes end in a 34mm connection, with the 54mm end of the bigger card used to store extra circuitry. As such, an ExpressCard 34 will fit into a 54 slot, but not vice versa. These barely exist on consumer laptops any more, and are generally only found on business machines.

board, and five is the highest rating. For those of you who would like to know something about my personal life, I was born and raised in New Orleans, LA. My family settled in New Orleans in 1834 and I am a French and Spanish Creole. When I was 18 I began modeling in CA and absolutely loved it! It was shortly after World War II and it was a time for beautiful clothes to return. I considered myself quite lucky being able to wear the high fashions that were all the rage at the time, and modeled off and on until I was in my late fifties. I married a career Naval Officer who was also a Navy pilot. I have three children and six grandchildren. When my children were growing up, I enjoyed being a stay-at-home mom. I loved being with my three little ones - they were always so much fun. And I also loved the busy social life that came with being a Naval Officers' wife, all the pomp and ceremony and even all the moving from one side of the country to the other, never knowing where we would live when we got there. Other things I love... Old movies, and I do mean "old". I have a huge collection, some dating back to when I was a child in the 1930s.

potential crime, teachers' roles change dramatically. She cannot simply say: stop it! Nor can she simply scold the perpetrator or propose such age-old solutions as 'shake hands and make up'. Her job is no longer to educate, but to investigate. Once a report is being made, the accused child's parents immediately - and quite naturally - become Jack's defence advocates. They tell their child to deny everything and challenge every accusation by demanding irrefutable proof. No one wants a bully stamp on their child's record. The process demeans the teacher's authority, eliminates arbitration and belittles personal responsibility, as it teaches children that guilt is dependent on proof and not conscience, and that sincere apologising is not honorable but contrary to self-interest. article continues after advertisement And children do learn. They soon learn that making accusations gives power, and zero tolerance means the presumption of guilt. Our current interpretation of bullying is entirely subjective, thus bullying occurs whenever someone feels he or she has been bullied. We have already had a case of bullying where Jack told Jill she has a nice hat. Jack thought he was complementing her, but Jill interpreted it as a sarcastic remark. In another case, boys who didn't allow a girl into their game were considered bullies by way of exclusion. So children no longer have the luxury of choosing who they play with.

is the issue with Halifax... people are so worried about maintaining a status quo that it never reaches its full potential. Even at 50% potential, Halifax has more character and is generally nicer than other places... and this is what I don't get... The city/HT/nimbys fight against all of these landmark developments and while suburban crap gets built all over the city. All the shit that has gone up around Cornwallis Square is appalling. I don't think Halifax can get anything but better by just going for it with landmark new developments. Its not that scary... cities with wayy more heritage than Halifax will ever know aren't afraid of new development because it needs to happen to preserve the value in areas where there are old structures. The Vic is exactly the direction Halifax should be going, just a wee bit taller. Let's save all of the heritage we have left, but not shoot ourselves in the foot in terms of creating real urban environments instead of the patchwork of lots that currently exist.

of industry and workers' leaders. He argues that when choosing a strategy to maximise the material wealth of the working class, the leaders of the proletariat may choose to support capitalism, rather than challenge it. This is because of the possibility of a loss of wealth during the transition to the dictatorship of the proletariat, even though material wealth would improve dramatically after the transition. The proletariat, then, chooses to continue the capitalist dominance of society in the hope of uninterrupted growth of material wealth. This runs counter to the Marxist idea of 'irreconcilable classes'. Under this thesis, dominance is agreed upon by the proletariat, rather than forced upon them. The state is acting in the interests of both the dominant and dominated class by enforcing the compromise. On the other hand, it can be seen that it is acting in the long-term interests of the bourgeoisie, by placating the working class, and only in the short-term interests of the proletariat, by only considering immediate growth in their material wealth. By only considering the short-term interests of the proletariat, this can hardly be called a balanced or unbiased state. Frank Parkin proposes the notion that the Marxist theory of the state, as dominated by class, is narrow-minded. He shows examples of the South African and the Orange state where the dominant divisions are race and religion respectively. He suggests an alternative 'Closure Model', where 'the state as an agency buttresses and consolidates the rules and institutions of exclusion governing all

Something a Little Extra What sets homes apart from the rest is something that providers the buyer with that little bit extra and this can be many different things.

I am happy to decieve you He stood as tall as redwood trees Drank tea from a sseamstress thimble Didn't want to speak, the honest truth So I spit out lies that aimed to soothe Do you want the truth or something beautiful? Just close your eyes and make believe Do you want the truth or something beautiful? I am happy to decieve you Secrets, lying, falling veils I can be who you want me to be Sacred, lies in, telling tales I can be who you want me to be But do you want me? Do you want the truth or something beautiful? Just close your eyes and make believe Do you want the truth or something beautiful? I am happy to decieve you Sacred lies in, tellng tales I can be who you wants me to be x2 I can be who you wnats me to be But do u want me? But do u want me?

Are you aware that [Deleted User Name] was a) referring to the Sagan book and b) was the "really amazing boyfriend" she refers to in the last one you quoted? She banters with the "really amazing boyfriend" throughout the rest of the thread. Read it. I thought it likely that it was the book, but the context wasn't really all that helpful in confirming that. But I did take a look at the 27 posts of hers that I could see and none of them led me to the conclusion that [Deleted User Name] was her "really amazing boyfriend". But I could be mistaken, although I'm not quite sure what relevance it has. Also... if you really think that the banter she displays is abnormal of 15-year-olds, I've got a story for you .... Kids these days ... know a hell of a lot. It's extremely normal, at least in my experience, for 15-year-olds (and younger, and older) to have quite a lot of knowledge about sex and sexuality ... That was sort of my point, that Rebecca Watson's portrayal of her as some totally innocent naf savaged, verbally if not physically although Watson seems unclear on the difference, by a bunch of Neanderthals was not particularly accurate and was not taking due cognizance of that level of sexual knowledge you refer to.

Whilst I really love all of the above, the one thing that really surprised me when I first came to Newfoundland was how often people would tell me that their family is from the UK. I always kind of anticipated this being a 'my parents emigrated when I was 6 months old' kind of story. But I didn't see it coming for people to tell me that their great, great grandfather came from Dorset. Or the name of the tiny Lancashire town that their great, great, great grandmother was born in. It's amazing how much people know about their lineage. I'm pretty family oriented. It's more difficult now I live abroad, but I always tried to call my grandparents weekly. I like travelling with my sister. That kind of thing. But, although I love my family dearly, I'm ashamed to say that I know next to nothing about my ancestors. Of my great grandparents, I know one of their names and two of their occupations (lace maker and inn keeper-pretty awesome, right?)

the disparagement of the apostle, who studiously avoided any deviation from Christian simplicity (1Co 2:1-5). In some of this last philosophizing party there may have arisen the Antinomian tendency which tried to defend theoretically their own practical immorality: hence their denial of the future resurrection, and their adoption of the Epicurean motto, prevalent in heathen Corinth, "Let us eat and drink, for to-morrow we die" (1Co 15:32). Hence, perhaps, arose their connivance at the incestuous intercourse kept up by one of the so-called Christian body with his stepmother during his father's life. The household of Chloe informed Paul of many other evils: such as contentions, divisions, and lawsuits brought against brethren in heathen law courts by professing Christians; the abuse of their spiritual gifts into occasions of display and fanaticism; the interruption of public worship by simultaneous and disorderly ministrations, and decorum violated by women speaking unveiled (contrary to Oriental usage), and so usurping the office of men, and even the holy communion desecrated by greediness and revelling on the part of the communicants. Other messengers, also, came from Corinth, consulting him on the subject of (1) the controversy about meats offered to idols; (2) the disputes about celibacy and marriage; (3) the due exercise of spiritual gifts in public worship; (4) the best mode of making the collection which he had requested for the saints at Jerusalem (1Co 16:1, &c.).

It couldn't win on a rightwing platform in 2001 or in 2005. It couldn't win in 2010, having attempted to detoxify its brand and pitch to the centre ground instead. When was the last time Labour won an election without having to sell out their core principles (clause IV anybody)? Boris Johnson would obliterate the likes of Ed Miliband. Labour picked the wrong candidate. Should have been his brother. I wasn't surprised to discover that Boris is the most respected politician in the country, and is the only one to pull ahead of Margaret Thatcher. We need a figure like him who, similarly to Thatcher, is determined to govern on behalf of Brits across all socio-economic groups, and end the division that has reared its ugly head again across this country over the past 20 years. We've gone 30 years without a new Thatcher surfacing. It looks like one finally has. Frankly, the nation has been crying out for it. Surley this should be " The Tories couldn't win the 2010 election". Standfirsts are in normal English, not headline English.

First it will take money and a research team to find a lawyer that is enraged as we are to take the 'case'. Most Americans do not want to let this be swept under anything. Our administration let four loyal Americans die a brutal death while they watched. Help was an hour away but was not sent. For 7 r (seven) hours two Navy seals fought a losing battle and they knew it but they were of a tremendous loyal courage. Much braver and more loyal than anything in our Whitehouse today. It can be done if anyone wants to bring them to justice. There are more than you can imagine who will all stand together and fight this atrocity. Does anyone remember the lady that was bullied on the bus? She is doing better now than she ever dreamed she could do. Why?

The movie doesn't have the typical non-stop slapstick comedy kids films seem to think are necessary (although the carwash scene definitely made me laugh). Most of the fun parts revolve around the cameos by Brian Setzer, Queen Latifah, Elton John, Bonnie Raitt, Don Henley, etc and if you're a fan of country-rock and blues, you should like the film. The appeal should be there if you feel nostalgic about the old Disney country bear hall too. While young children might find the film slow, older kids and adults who recognize the value of getting back something lost and a good music soundtrack should appreciate the movie. "The Country Bears" is a good family film. It isn't the best movie Disney ever cranked out, but it will hold your attention for about an hour and a half. It follows the story of young Beary Barrington, a boy/bear unsure of his purpose in life. He doesn't fit in with his human family(or at least that's what he thinks), so he sets out for "Country Bear Hall," where he believes he'll fit in. When he gets there, the place is about to be leveled to the ground, so he decides to reunite the band for a benefit concert. What follows is a good, clean family film about friendship, family, and tons of musical cameos. It has a solid cast of well-known and not-so-well

federal provincial transfer in 2014 result in the maintenance of 6% growth, as committed to by the current government, or in some other arrangement is not yet clear. In October of 2010 Maxine Bernier , a federal conservative MP and former Minister of Foreign Affairs said Ottawa should hand over authority for funding health care back to the provinces and allow them to fund health care solely on the basis of their own tax points, rather than cash transfers from the federal government. Do you believe the federal government should stick with its stated commitment to a 6% annual growth in cash transfers? Yes No, it should be more No, it should be less Loading ... Whether the proposition of Maxime Bernier last year is a serious part of the current federal government's negotiating position remains unanswered. Prime Minister Stephen Harper was quick to point out that Bernier does not speak for the federal government; however Bernier does say that small, limited government "would be the conservative thing to do". Bernier argued in a National Post editorial that "this is a recipe for permanent discord. The provinces act like special interest groups who would rather get money from the central government than increase their own taxes". If the constitutional position of the federal government is that health care is a provincial responsibility, it is easy to lay the major funding responsibility at the feet of the provinces through tax transfers, while reducing the federal cash for health transfers.

Below are links to more information on the most common clauses, but here are three key points about these topic you must know. 1. Be assertive Most real estate agents expect the buyer (you) to behave and accept whatever wording they insert for you. They see themselves as the expert and don't expect you to understand the intricacies of offer conditions. And I must warn you that they often don't cope well at all with an educated buyer. They may make comments like "that is a standard condition in this State, you can't change it". The agent may insist you can't change the wording, or say you will lose the property unless you sign the paperwork. If they do this, the following strategy is useful. Have the agent clearly explain the cooling off period and take notes. Be very clear about what you have to do to cool off, ie. cancel the sale. Repeat this to the agent with words like "So I must get back to you in writing by 5pm on Wednesday". Then have your solicitor check the contract within the cooling off period. If your solicitor suggests any changes then tell the agent to insert the changes you want, or you will cool off and cancel the sale. 2. Beware the selling agent who

and whether the research is conducted by an NGO or an academic institution. 3.4 Utilization and management of knowledge While asserting that the production of knowledge is the primary function of research, and that levels of knowledge have increased considerably, a discussion paper for the International Conference on Health Research [ 1 ] also recognizes that the ability to draw from research in terms of lessons learned, application to interventions, and programming and policies which support the overarching goal of equity, is often lacking. Inadequacies include the inability of developing countries to access pertinent international research literature and knowledge bases (either as contributors or users), the inability to access new information technologies, and the inability to ensure closer links among the research community, health service managers and health policy makers. The effective use of research findings and their dissemination is an increasingly important public health policy concern. In 1995, an international research conference was held in Vancouver, Canada, on dissemination research. This type of research is similar to what is now called 'translational research' http://www.niehs.nih.gov/translat/home.h\\... webcite , that is, the conversion of research findings from basic, clinical or epidemiological environmental health science research into information, resources, or tools that can be applied by health care providers and community residents to improve public health outcomes in at-risk neighborhoods. NGOs are frequently at the interface of applied research and policy-making, at least at the administrative level, and their potential input into research utilization for policy-making needs to be valued.

that exists today is a result of government policies. Spiegel: Can you give us an example? Stiglitz: In 2008, President George W. Bush claimed that we did not have enough money for health insurance for poor American children, costing a few billion dollars a year. But all of a sudden we had $150 billion to bail out AIG, the insurance company. That shows that something is wrong with our political system. It is more akin to "one dollar, one vote" than to "one person, one vote." ... Spiegel: So your answer to the inequality problem is to transfer money from the top to the bottom? Stiglitz: First, transferring money from the top to the bottom is only one suggestion. Even more important is helping the economy grow in ways that benefit those at the bottom and top, and ending the "rent seeking" that moves so much money from ordinary citizens to those at the top. ... Nothing particularly new here, but I wanted to highlight the point about rent-seeking, anti-competitive practices, etc. once again since I don't think this cause of inequality receives enough attention.

good to see a genetic counsellor or social worker in your area who specialises in HD/predictive testing, for a discussion and counselling on this and other issues, before going ahead with the test. By the way your Mum was sort of correct when she said you can get your (unborn) child tested without being tested yourself. There is a technique, called PGD exclusion testing, which can be done using IVF and preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) in which the embryos are created, then tested NOT for the HD gene, but for the chromosome 4 markers that can distinguish which side of the family (on your side) the chromosome 4 has come from. It would require a blood sample from (ideally) both of your parents, as well as you and your partner. Any embryos that have a chromosome 4 from your Mum's side of the family would be excluded ie not used to start a pregnancy, as there is a 50% chance that that chromosome has the HD gene. So that way you can be confident that the child will not have the HD gene, while not having to find out whether you have the HD gene. You can get more information about the PGD process from the website of Sydney IVF - www.sydneyivf.com I hope this information is helpful and I would encourage you to contact your local genetic counselling service for help to sort out your dilemma.

"It's fun to be a woman and put on make-up and get gussied up sometimes and I do occasionally, depending on what I have to do," Lissie explains, "but my music is all about me and my life, and so I see no reason to have to wear a costume if everything I'm doing is a true thing." That's not to say she can't appreciate some of the more image-conscious chanteuses of today, though. She describes Lady Gaga as "awesome" and has done a great cover of her song "Bad Romance"; after being a big hit on the web, it has made it on to the B-side of Lissie's next single, "Cuckoo". She has also become firm friends with Ellie Goulding. The two of them often perform together at each other's gigs. "I feel a bit like a proud older sister, watching her. She's so sweet." And, with that, it's time for Lissie to go and have her picture taken. "Oh, man, I feel like I'm going to throw up! Maybe we can catch it on camera." And, then, that laugh again. Lissie's single "Cuckoo" is released on Monday. The album, 'Catching a Tiger', is out on Columbia Records. Lissie plays Bestival and starts a UK tour on 26 October (Lissie.com)

"He played a leading role in bringing the region out of isolation and into the modern State of PNG," said Mr Paias Wingti. Mr Wingti is the first Highlander to become Prime Minister of PNG. The funeral service will be held at Koki Lutheran Church on Thursday at 2.30 pm. Sir Iambakey's body is then expected to be flown back to his village for burial.

Certainly his support was crucial for every man who has become Prime Minister - Michael Somare at Independence, Sir Julius Chan in 1980 and Paias Wingti last year.

Men and women are at equal risk of inheriting the gene. The only certain way to know of if someone has the gene is to have a gene test. If most of those in a particular family who get HD are women then this is just bad luck for them and good luck for the men of the family. If your boyfriend's mum had HD then he is at a one in two or 50:50 risk of inheriting the gene even though he's a man.

through our door. One of the department stores - I think it was John Lewis? - had done a sort of advertorial where two small children (around 2 I think) were invited into the toy department to see which of the things they liked to play with most. The commentary described the two children a bit and then talked about what they liked to play with, including the fact that "<girl's name> usually prefers to play with boys' toys". It really raised the question, why should they be "boy's" toys, if girls love to play with them? And also, as you've said above, did imply that there was something wrong with this poor 2-year-old for going for the "wrong" toys! on a slightly different tangent but I remember going to ELC to get baby DS a set of stacking cups. The assistant explained to me that they were on the top floor, where they had the boys' set, with blue and purple and red etc, and the girls' set, in shades of pink.... There's nothing inherently wrong with pink. My DD has a nice bright pink jumper from the boy's rail in Next; her friend has a fetching pale pink - boy's M&S! There's nothing wrong with the colour per se - its the genderisation of products which is the issue. Those bikes - just read the blurbs. Its not the colour, its the messages about what boys and girls are expected to do . Do a search on Bright

Where to Stay in Sydney -- Apartment Rentals Where to stay in Sydney ? Well, just like Melbourne , Sydney has plenty of choices when it comes to somewhere to check in -- boutique places, flashy five stars, backpacker hostels, and, of course, apartment rentals. Just as we did in Melbourne , we also got to try a huge range of accommodation over a couple of trips to Sydney too*. We'll review our pick of the apartment rentals here and the hotels in following posts. It probably never needs to be said again on this blog, but apartment rentals will always be our preference when it comes to digs if we're in a place for more than a few days, even when that place happens to be our hometown. As fans of slow, sustainable and local travel, we like to be able to settle in for a while and want to know we can shop the markets and do some cooking if it takes our fancy. At the very least, we want a fridge where we can keep some cheese and olives and chill some bottles of Aussie wine. Now it must be said that accommodation in Sydney -- and Australia as a whole -- is expensive. There are few bargains to be had, even when it comes to apartments. But at least with apartments you can save money by occasionally cooking in or bunking down with family and friends -- and we've also got some great tips here to

need to know about the three federal by-elections in one post ?In general, these are so-called safe ridings. So I definitely doubt that they are going to switch. The leading parties in each riding has just got a huge lead,? Mr. Bozinoff said in a telephone interview on Monday. ?So, protest vote and all that? No, there?s not much of that going on.? On the other, he said, each of by-elections is an indicator of trends that are occurring in different parts of the country. The Victoria race, said Mr. Bozinoff, suggests declining Conservative fortunes in British Columbia, the Calgary by-election could test what is happening to the Liberals federally and the Durham results show no party is gaining traction in that part of Ontario. The survey of 422 randomly selected voters in Durham suggests that Conservative candidate Erin O?Toole would have taken 46 per cent of the ballots if the vote had been held last week. NDP candidate Larry O?Connor had the support of 24 per cent of respondents while Liberal Grant Humes had 20 per cent. The seat is up for grabs after the resignation of former International Development Minister Bev Oda, who was embarrassed by the opposition into repaying some of her travel expenses, including $16 for a glass of orange juice. In the 2011 general election, Ms. Oda took 54 per cent of the vote, said Mr. Bozinoff. So the Conservatives would seem to be down in that riding. In Durham, the Liberals would normally gain

he works - except for one Vanessa (Elisha Cuthbert) who has a 'smile that lights up a room', but pays no attention to the geeky Bob. Bob is deranged, talks to his goldfish at home (and they answer back!), and plans to kill the most offensive of his fellow workers. But in the adjacent cubicle there is a like mind who beats him to the show and one morning opens fire killing five people and wounding Vanessa with a bullet to her spine that leaves her paralyzed: Bob serendipitously uses his own gun to kill the assailant and becomes a hero for the corporation. Though Bob is unchanged in appearance or outlook he is elevated to VP of Creative Thinking under the head boss Gene Shelby (William H. Macy). He visits Vanessa in the hospital, suffers her tantrum at being a quadriplegic, but finally is called back to her bedside and sweet-talked into being her hero life-saving guardian - and more. Once Bob feels needed and perhaps 'loved' by Vanessa he begins to change, only to have unfortunate reminders of reality enter and alter his life yet again. Though the subject matter is rather terrifying, Cappello elects to present this tale as black humor. In the hands of less competent actors it would like have been a dud, but with Christian Slater's finely nuanced performance the film takes on a powerful sheen.

OK Younger parents may know some stuff but most likely in many cases, how to plug in a playstation and stick in the DVD. 2) Lack of configurablity is the Microsoft way and its always been the wrong way. Its fine to have wizards but for users in the know, the option to actually configure the options manually and in detail is a must. In converse however the good old Linux way is just as bad. A perfect system would provide auto setup and easy wizards for basic users, and for advanced users who don;t know about the hardware itself (in detail). I'm sorry I don;t want to spend weeks learning about how to configure each individual hardware, unless it becomes necessary. Likewise though when I need to, I want the power to do so. In this case, way can I not configure exceptions to the rule and do so on a number of parameters. Why are there only 2 levels of security. This is why UAC doesn't float my boat. Tweak UAC is nice as far as it goes, but I still lack power to say this is ok and this I would like to be reminded about. 3) It doesn't actually adress the fundamental problem. The problem is that developers etc and infact many users cannot work in a user account (especially on their home PC) for a lot of regular tasks.

of to balance those two sides was Ray. He has the best kind of baggage, for me. You often trade off with actors -- say you're Ken Loach; you'll cast an unknown or maybe a comic who doesn't have the same kind of baggage and people are see them fresh. Maybe they don't have any history and that's a good thing for a certain kind of film, and bad for another. If you then cast them in action film that would feel weird. I think with this, Ray has a lot of baggage to him, and for me it was very useful. You're used to seeing him play hard men, men who are trouble, men of violence and action. When you see him vulnerable at the beginning, hopefully that is quite shocking -- more shocking than if you were seeing a complete unknown. He carries all the weight of those previous films, and yet you're seeing him ravaged by a disease and problems from his past. That immediately worked for me, and I couldn't think of any other British actor who could work in the same way, with the correct kind of baggage. "[Ray Winstone] carries all the weight of those previous films, and yet you're seeing him ravaged by a disease and problems from his past. That immediately worked for me..."

Remember, the faster you go, the more likely you are to be killed or seriously injured if you crash. Safe speed guidelines You can drive at any speed under or equal to the limit, provided: your speed is safe for the traffic conditions (for example, slow down if you are on a busy road, or if there are pedestrians or cyclists around) your speed is safe for the road conditions (for example, slow down if the road is winding, bumpy, narrow, wet or icy) your speed is safe for the weather conditions (for example, slow down if it is raining, windy or foggy) you can stop suddenly behind a vehicle that you're following -- if a vehicle ahead of you stops suddenly and you run into the back of it, you will be legally responsible you can stop in half the length of clear road you can see in front of you on a road with no centre line or lanes (for example, a narrow country road where vehicles may meet head-on) you can stop in the length of clear lane you can see in front of you on a road with a centre line or lanes.

the chief head on when discussing the linchpin of the case given that it's the main point of contention between him and them. And something else is strange too: The conservative opinion goes on to argue in methodical detail why the rest of the law shouldn't be severable from the mandate. Quote: The opinion now explains in Part V -- C -- 1, infra, why the Act's major provisions are not severable from the Mandate and Medicaid Expansion. It proceeds from the insurance regulations and taxes (C -- 1 -- a), to the reductions in reimbursements to hospitals and other Medicare reductions(C -- 1 -- b), the exchanges and their federal subsidies (C -- 1 -- c),and the employer responsibility assessment (C -- 1 -- d). Part V -- C -- 2, infra, explains why the Act's minor provisions also are not severable. Major provisions of the Affordable Care Act -- i.e., the insurance regulations and taxes, the reductions in federal reimbursements to hospitals and other Medicare spending reductions, the exchanges and their federal subsidies, and the employer responsibility assessment -- cannot remain once the Individual Mandate and Medicaid Expansion are invalid. Why would they bother with an intricate analysis of which provisions were severable from the mandate if this opinion was written in the knowledge that the mandate was ultimately being upheld? You only need step-by-step instructions on severability if you're in the majority and obliged to provide lower courts with guidance on which parts of the statute are

bit of a socialist tradition, doesn't it? That might play into it. I don't know how Ireland historically has been. Come on, let's get real here. The fact that abortion is illegal obviously has a lot to do with the fact that it's such a heavily catholic country. That shouldn't even be a question. Ireland is one of the most religious countries in Europe. The Communists still have quite an influence here I believe, yes - you see it in the way local government is organised and how 'officialdom' works. I like it a lot, I think if I was an Italian I'd vote for them. I don't think you can just say abortion is illegal because Ireland is Catholic - my point was that Italy (where the Pope lives!) is just as strongly Catholic, but here it's legal and has been for some years. So what is it that's different about Ireland? That was my question. I think you answered your own question. Religion is very important, but so are politics. A country with a stronger communist/socialist tradition will naturally be more favourable to measures such as abortion. But yes, as a a general rule I very much think you cay say that Catholicism is the reason why abortion is illegal in Ireland. No doubt they would say that themselves. Obviously it's not the only reason, but it is the main reason. I'm sure the more right-wing Catholics in Italy are also opposed to abortion. Opposition to abortion is

TIM: It's a little different for each track, the general idea is that five of us will start working on individual ideas and start emailing each other those ideas, for everybody in the band we'll program some basic drums, and start layering guitars over it. In some cases the ideas being emailed back and forth are pretty much completed songs, and in other cases they're just a collection of riffs that we finish as a band when we get together in a traditional rehearsal environment.

system? In Canada a few weeks ago, a sleeper-cell bomb factory was discovered with the explosives and circuit boards for dozens of bombs. The Canadian Parliament Buildings and a Canadian subway were targets named in emails between the captured Muslim terrorists. Canadians deserve pledges from their politicians that they would personally clear the bombs from the terrorists they let into Canada.... But the minimum Canadians should demand from their politicians is a pledge in writing to explain to the families of the terrorists' future victims, as well as to the Canadian public, why such potential Muslim terrorists were allowed into Canada. And why we should trust those politicians to prevent entry of more Muslim terrorists. I don't know anything about the Australian Tea Party but it already sounds mushy. Canada held the G8/G20 meeting at a security cost of about $1 Billion. A small part of that security cost was needed against the idiotic anti-globalist anarchists. But the major fear naturally was about Muslim terrorism and mass murder. If you don't care about massive bloodshed, what about the costs of doubling and re-doubling Muslim populations in our societies ?? Even though my area has been threatened but not yet hit by terrorism, the small Muslim population here causes lots of violent crime related to drug trafficking and honour killings.

While most online daters aren't expecting Brad Pitt, establishing false expectations with a misleading photo inevitably leads to disappointment and distrust. "If you responded to your own profile, are there lies or omissions that you would feel make you feel you'd been duped?" That's the litmus test that Dave Grossman, founder of CanoodleOnline.com, encourages his members to use when assessing their dating profile. If you do "lie" by omission in your profile, own up before the first date, Grossman advised. Alan almost didn't make the grade for a date with Molly Niles. He was outside her age range and only looked average in his picture. But Alan's profile demonstrated he was thoughtful, smart, close to his family and a good uncle, Niles said. He showed enough of the traits Niles wanted in a mate to get her interested. Meet your match Keep your e-courtship short. Until your digital correspondence evolves into a real-world date, "you're missing so many of the cues you get from seeing a person face-to-face, not to mention from seeing him or her interact with other people," cautioned psychotherapist Tina B. Tessina. That's one reason relationship experts advise against drawing out online correspondence for more than a couple back-and-forth exchanges. Extended correspondence often creates a false sense of intimacy that can lead to disappointment when the actual meeting occurs. While you're at it, keep first encounters

Nice doesn't have to be nasty In recent weeks our newspapers and television screens have been dominated by tragic stories of NHS patients being denied access to drugs which have the potential to extend their life. By Andrew Lansley, shadow secretary of state for health 6:22PM BST 10 Sep 2008 A large amount of anger has been directed towards the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (Nice) which is responsible for making these decisions. While I understand the distress of people who have paid taxes all their lives only to then be let down by the NHS in their hour of need, I do not believe that NICE is ultimately to blame. Nice is, after all, a body set up by the Labour Government, which works within a framework of rules set by the Department of Health. I think the real question that needs to be asked is why this Labour Government is failing thousands of patients who are unable to access these life-saving drugs? Why, when British taxpayers have recently doubled the amount of money they provide to the NHS, is the health service not there for them when they need it? In the UK, drugs which are routinely available in other European countries are denied to NHS patients. As Sweden's top medical university the Karolinska Institute has argued: "The UK has a poor (drugs) uptake, which is lower than the average throughout Europe, and a slow rate even after the drugs have been available for 4 years".

You can kick people off your connection, you can block websites, and you can black MAC addresses from other computers. These three things are the only things that the router is useful for, and when you actually need most of the connections open, then you have problems. This router is recommended for only a single person depending on what the router is being used for. If you plan on simply browsing websites(completely ignoring games or YouTube altogether)then you will not notice much of a difference. If you have a house full of pro gamers and an immigrant who enjoys webcamming with his wife back in the Philippines, then you have an issue with bandwidth being sapped from your "beloved 5.0 GHz that Dlink loves to brag about." It absolutely sickens me that such false advertising actually works. All in all, do not buy this product unless you absolutely "have" to use it for browsing/business purposes. If you are sharing with more than two people, then the chances of you having bandwidth issues only triples as the more things are done on it. Sure, blocking them can be a quick fix, but what will you say to them after they realise you've blocked them off for good when they need it as well?

EU must send Gaddafi 'back into the cold' - Ashton BRUSSELS, Feb 26 (Reuters) - The European Union, which is preparing to announce sanctions on the Libyan government, must send Muammar Gaddafi 'back into the cold', the EU foreign affairs chief wrote in an article published on Saturday. "His outrageous behaviour in the past few days demands we send him back into the cold," Catherine Ashton wrote in an opinion article in the International Herald Tribune. European Union governments reached consensus on Friday on imposing an arms embargo, asset freezes and a travel ban on Libya, but a formal decision will only be taken early next week. [ID:nLDE71O1YH] U.S. President Barak Obama signed an order on Friday prohibiting transactions related to Libya and blocking property, the first major step to isolate the North African leader, who has used army, police and irregular forces to try to crush anti-government protests. Diplomats at the United Nations have said a vote on a draft resolution calling for an arms embargo on Libya as well as travel bans and asset freezes on its leaders might come on Saturday after U.N. chief Ban ki Moon said it could not wait. Gaddafi, once branded a "mad dog" by the White House for backing global militants, had spent decades in diplomatic isolation from the West. However in recent years oil exports have helped thaw relations.

and their only thinkable option to survive as a king of dungheap is trying to please all. Nicholas Dollak I understand that. However, it's a foolish excuse for banning words (something that shouldn't be done anyway). On top of this, since these are standardized tests they should reflect what presumably has been taught as part of the curriculum -- if there's any "controversy," it's because a student goofed off instead of paying attention, and probably never learned comprehension skills (i.e. context clues) either. Banning words 1. dumbs things down, which in the end does nobody any favors; 2. forces people who have heavy responsibilities to walk on eggshells; and 3. -- worst of all, since this was made public and you can bet the students are laughing over this list of new "bad" words -- students will be feigning offense any time a word on the list pops up anywhere (not just on tests), and they'll be accusing teachers they don't like of saying such words. Most administrators find it easier to fire a teacher over groundless complaints than to address the real issue. Daniel Bezden Hey, maybe if we ban the word "Stupid" we wont have it any more?

My favorite part of your piece is where you say you wouldn't have it bigger, because that's pretty much how I feel about my space.

It was my time to sit back and watch you explore what I had made. HM: So our immediate reaction was WHOA CREEPY because my once clean geometric world was suddenly populated with humanoid shapes. Each chamber in the sequence had figures in it like posed statues. Nothing moved and I was a little... uncomfortable getting too close to the figures at the beginning. But it was soon clear that we had constructed a series of frozen moments and it was up to us to make sense of the story implied in the montage. GB: I was enthralled I've got to say. Even if these stories or vignettes were difficult to comprehend and decipher. HM: So we played the whole game twice more after that, to assemble the other sequences, meaning we played through it four times in total. We spent ages debating what stories the game was trying to tell us. I think we came to the conclusion the three stories weren't connected. GB: I'm not sure we took away anything concrete but as mentioned earlier, I got the sense that the stories -- like the mechanics and the co-op element itself -- were about compartmentalisation, connectedness and the breaking down of that.

twice. St Louis Bertrand had confession every morning before offering the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. Your Eminence how about it? Regarding skipping meat as an evangelization opportunity, just a note to say that I have been a vegetarian for about 25 years, and it is extremely rare for anyone to notice or comment on the fact that I am not eating meat. Even people whom I have never met before. Refraining from meat is quite common these days. Along with thousands and thousands of vegetarians, now it is becoming more common for local governments to encourage the "green" initiative of "Meatless Mondays." These days I am not sure that many people will identify a meatless meal with being Catholic. It is just become very normal and common to skip meat. Pax. Last year during Lent, His Eminence, ran a video contest on the Sacrament of Confession in the Archdiocese of NY. Young people in high school and college even created short YouTube videos encouraging participation in the sacrament. The winners were the ones who received the most "likes". So everyone was promoting "views" in order to win. It was interesting to see their creativity and a great idea to encourage going to Confession.

are concerned with admissibility of evidence, which is not in issue here; and none, aside from those already mentioned, arose where in the face of clear and general language it was contended that Parliament must nevertheless have intended the words of the statute to have only a limited effect. It is true that the Act of 1987 goes further than any other drawn to our attention. In legislation concerned, for example, with Department of Trade inspections under the Companies Acts, the disclosure of incriminating evidence is a by-product of an investigation directed to other ends, whereas the whole purpose of this Act is to extract material which will lead to a conviction. It is also true that section 2(8) does not provide complete protection, since information obtained in answer to questions (such as, for example, the location of funds in a foreign bank account) can lead to the disclosure of damaging facts which once known can be proved by other means, even if the answers themselves cannot be put in evidence. This is not, however, a unique feature of this particular type of legislation. Moreover, even the Act of 1984 itself, which is the foundation of Code C, provides in section 76(4) that evidence discovered as the result of an inadmissible confession is not ipso facto rendered inadmissible. In my view these characteristics serve only to require the court to be more than ever cautious before concluding that Parliament really intended to exclude one of the immunities which I have

rubbish. It is either all in or all out as far as I am concerned. I think Australian farmers are going to face serious problems in segregation. If anyone has had a crop with a few seeds of black oats in it, to see how the seed multiplies in the seed et cetera, it speaks for itself. Thank you very much, Mr Chair. Senator CHERRY ?Following on from that question?and it is probably the key one in respect of your act?my reading of the act says there is no definition in the act of segregation as being an economic issue. Surely the question of whether the seeds propagate on a farm or the next farm is fundamentally an environmental issue. How do you justify the view that that is not an environmental issue? Dr Meek ?Because segregation is to do with segregation for marketing purposes. It is to have a separation of GM from non-GM. Senator CHERRY ?But segregation is about ensuring that a neighbouring farm does not end up with a drift of seed or pollen from the farm next door. Surely that is an environmental issue. Dr Meek ?No. Segregation, as I said earlier, is about segregation for marketing purposes.

Mr. Romney has repeatedly compared Mr. Obama to President Carter, suggesting both were failures. In an audio clip posted online from the same fund-raiser, apparently by the person who gave the videos to Mother Jones, Mr. Romney is heard joking that he would have an easier time winning the election if his father had been born to Mexican parents. "My dad, as you probably know, was the governor of Michigan and was the head of a car company," Mr. Romney says in the audio clip. "But he was born in Mexico , and, uh, had he been born of, uh, Mexican parents, I'd have a better shot at winning this." But the most striking part of the video is Mr. Romney's characterization of nearly half of the country. His assessment of the "47 percent" echoes a line of conservative thinking that is championed by his running mate, Representative Paul D. Ryan of Wisconsin . Mr. Ryan has long argued that nearly half of the people in America are either "dependent" or "reliant" on the federal government. Mr. Romney's figure of 47 percent comes from the Tax Policy Center , which found that 46.4 percent of households paid no federal income tax in 2011. But most households did pay payroll taxes.

It may seem like you're "ratting" out your friend, and she may get angry with you about it, but there are some secrets you shouldn't keep because they are not in your best friend's interests. The best way to be a true friend now is my first sentence. Depending on the age of the person she wants to have sex with, you should probably also report this to the police - unless the person is the same age, which I doubt, then they are a sexual predator and child molestor. She might be mad at you now but when she grows up she'll completely understand. I'm assuming that when you called her parents, you told them what she had said and you told them about the horrible adult with her, right? If so, then you did all the right things and I'm pretty sure she'll thank you someday.
