you've been joyful before. You might like to take some moments NOW, to think about how it felt when you were being joyful, how others will see you and the nice things that people say about you when you are expressing yourself that way. If you get that sense of being joyful now, then that proves that it is still there, and if not then you might just want to concentrate a little more on remembering that feeling. I can probably find a young persons drug service in your area if you like. Generally the people are pretty cool, they DON'T tell you what to do, they support what YOU want to do and understand that people use drugs WELL DONE for taking responsibility to do something to make those changes I was just a little curious about it all and had to ask. I wouldnt say I have big enough of a problem that I need to talk to someone. Its just I have some buddies who smoke the green and it like energizes them while I get all the things I described. Ive cut back on the green but never completely stopped because I could never convince myself that it just might be the pot. Obviously it has made me paranoid because I go and search and dig for answers as to what my symptoms could be and sometimes even convince myself that maybe its a mental or a physical problem.

an important part of our cultural identity. That's why all immigrant groups cling to their native languages for as long as possible and why there is such sadness when the older generation realizes that their children have become American. Democrats would do more for immigrants if they respected the human desire behind the conservative response. In fact, I think, strategically, the Democrats should support English as the official language of the US, although the thought will outrage half of Democrats which is why it would never happen (which is why it is so easy for Ann Coulter to pin "blame America first" labels on Democrats.) It would console conservatives and, in the long run, not matter: It is more symbolic than meaningful. The most effective strategy would be to promote what the Latino immigrants share with the Americano culture rather than insisting on their rights. They believe in family life, big families, hard work, craftsmanship, honesty, taking care of their aging relationships, they are devout Christians. They like to oppress their women. Fight for their country. And so on. See, they are just like us. Nothing to be afraid of here! Immigration is a totally bogus issue because ALL OF US have a stake in the situation as it now exists, and NO ONE (at least no one with any real power in this country) has any stake in changing it. If employers stopped hiring immigrants, legal or otherwise, the flow of immigrants would start to dry up at once. | NARRATIVE | null | 1,413,092 |

Kevin: There are a number of ways. For example in the case of the black hole at the center of the Milky Way, we can work out the mass of whatever is there becuase we see stars orbiting a particular spot. And this object is so massive and compact that even if it was not a black hole, it would immediately collapse into one. Chateau: How large is the smallest black hole you've seen? riyanatarajan: The smallest black hole that we infer exists is something that likely weighs roughly as much as our Sun....10^33 grams.

Truck runs amok in Havelock North Story Tools CLOSE CALL: A truck crashed through three properties yesterday, narrowly missing this home but damaging the carport.PHOTOS/GLENN TAYLOR HBT124199-08 A truck driver was found unconscious after he crashed through three properties and came to rest in a fourth on Napier Rd, Havelock North, yesterday. The truck was travelling north when it veered off the road, smashed through a fence and across the front of three houses before coming to rest in a fourth property against a tree. Sue Birdsall was one of the first on the scene and helped the driver in his cab. "We didn't know what had happened to him, his head was down in the passenger's foot area," she said. "He wasn't conscious when we found him." Another motorist said she was travelling in the opposite direction when she saw the truck swerve into the middle of the road before pulling left off the road and into the properties. "It's pretty scary stuff. I just worried about his safety," the motorist said. Kate Stevens and her daughter Lili, 9, live at one of the damaged houses. Ms Stevens said she had planned to be on the lawn yesterday morning, but met a friend for coffee instead. "I was going to mow the lawns, but it was raining," she said. "We also park our cars on that lawn, but no one was here so I was pretty pleased we weren't. The timing could have been bad." Lili said she often | NARRATIVE | NA NE | 1,755,814 |

There are (approximately) a million broadband connections in NZ, but then you've got business/leased and voice traffic on that same cable too, so your effective available bandwidth isn't anywhere near 1.28Tbit/s PLUS it's kind of expensive.

a 'berk' should be considered much ruder than it is, because it's from the rhyming slang 'berkely hunt'. Again, it's all to do with context and the intentions (perceived or actual) of the user of the word. Also, as Billy Connelly (spelling?) noted, 'cunt' and 'fuck' sound much more aggressive than any of their synonyms... a load of skinheads running around calling people 'mimsy' just wouldn't have the same credibility. Ken said, A friend of mine used to work for a Large Pharmaceutical Company. The IT droids installed a new netnanny system which filtered out pages containing, for instance, the word 'breast'. Some of the breast cancer researchers found this a little inhibiting. Jay -- No, I'm not aware of the word Paki being used in America at all. I had never even heard it until I saw the film Bend It Like Beckham ("Ummm, well, she's crying, so that must mean a bad thing, right?"). Also, the word buggger doesn't seem to carry the same meaning over here. We frequently use it as an innocuous synonym for "annoying person." I didn't learn any other meaning for the word until in college when a friend said it within earshot of an English priest. Also, I love the word "sodding," but it just doesn't seem to sound right in an American accent.

I am not going to engage myself in the kinds of things that have been said in recent days, trying to divide indigenous Australians up into neat little columns and descriptors. People are people; people bring with them into the Parliament all sorts of attributes and outlooks on life. I do believe our Parliament is at its best when it represents the nation it's there to serve. That means we do want to see more indigenous Australians, we want to see more women, we want to see more Australians from multicultural backgrounds in our Parliament.

PM: When I announced the Royal Commission on Monday, I talked about people averting their eyes. So, not just the incredible wrongdoing by adults who have engaged in these vile acts involving children, but the people who averted their eyes. Adults have got a duty of care towards children and it is not good enough for people to engage in sins of omission and not act when a child is at risk. As for the way that the Royal Commission will take evidence and deal with getting the facts together in this matter, that is going to be a matter for the Royal Commissioner or Commissioners that we appoint.

smile and project. Apparently I understood that to mean grimace and shout. I'd have been hailed as a star had the stage directions for Miss Bessom read, "played as a man with hearing loss and hemorrhoids." Actually, for my portrayal to have been believable, the description would have needed to read, "played as Jane with hearing loss and hemorrhoids," for I was never actually in character. While the line "I declare, it's been a month of Sundays since I've seen you!" came out of my mouth, running through my head was: "Who talks that way? Why not just say, 'it's been a month'? The Sundays are implied." The only point in each performance when I felt the slightest association with how Miss Bessom might think and feel was when the Mrs. Dunbar character said to Bessom/me, "They told me you were gettin' real fleshy."

Frequently Asked Questions Some General Questions Why am I never called to be polled? You have roughly the same chance of being called as anyone else living in the United States who has a telephone. This chance, however, is only about 1 in 154,000 for a typical survey by the Pew Research Center for the People & the Press. To obtain that rough estimate, we divide the current adult population of the U.S. (about 235 million) by the typical sample size of our polls (usually around 1,500 people). Telephone numbers for Pew Research Center polls are generated through a process that attempts to give every household in the population a known chance of being included. Of course, if you don't have a telephone at all (about 2% of households), then you have no chance of being included in our telephone surveys. Once we've completed a survey, we adjust the data to correct for the fact that some individuals (e.g., those with both a cell phone and a landline) have a greater chance of being included than others. For more on how that's done, see the discussion of weighting in our detailed methodology statement . Can I volunteer to be polled? While we appreciate people who want to participate, we can't base our polls on volunteers. A survey of volunteers is a "non-probability sample" and the results cannot be generalized to the public as a whole.

you figure out which days are the very best for having baby-making intercourse. The very best day to conceive according to most calendars is the day before ovulation. Keep track of your temperature You can get the most out of your ovulation calendar by monitoring your body for tell-tale changes that confirm that you're actually ovulating. One of the best ways to do this is to start taking your temperature each morning during the period your calendar says you're fertile. Just before you ovulate, your temperature will spike. Once your temperature spikes, you'll know you're truly at the best possible point to conceive. Monitor cervical excretions Another way to compare the information on your ovulation calendar to the actualities of your own cycle is to monitor your cervical mucus for changes. When you're close to becoming fertile, you will notice that your cervical/vaginal secretions begin more plentiful than usual. They also are clear, thin, and stretchy -- similar in consistency to egg white. This type of mucus is the most hospitable to sperm and helps contribute to the conditions necessary for conception to occur. While conceiving can seem like something of a conundrum at first, it quickly becomes much simpler with the right tools for the job in your corner. Try an ovulation calendar for yourself and maximize your chances of conceiving. RESOURCE BOX: Libra provides a vast selection of feminine products such as tampons, pads, and liners.

people and groups and why do they think this is a good idea? What is their "interest" in passing this intrusive and expensive rule? Would it also make sense to put ankle bracelets on law abiding citizens to make sure they continue to be law abiding citizens? Of course not, so why is this viewed as a good idea? Who stands to gain from it? Not the law abiding motor carrier who would be required to buy equipment and pay monthly monitoring fees in their already shrinking budget if this rule passes. Compare the cost of this monitoring system with the cost of $0.99 cent drivers log books and explain how this new expensive system will benefit the small business's bottom line. The obvious answer is that it will only hurt small business, not help it. Of course, the proponents of the new rule will say that it is a "safety issue," and that this will reduce the occurrence of fatigued drivers and motor vehicle accidents. The DOT admits in Federal Register /Vol. 75, No. 64, that, "the Agency is not aware of any published information that demonstrates that the specific mandate imposed ... has contributed to any discernible benefits in safety."

were educated and migrate to another country. The workers are generally enticed to leave their birth country by generous incentive offers from the recruiting countries [ 29 ]. Developing countries struggle to find means to improve living conditions for their residents; countries such as Ghana, Kenya, South Africa and Zimbabwe are seeking human resources solutions to address their lack of medically trained professionals. Shortages in these countries are prevalent due to the migration of their highly educated and medically trained personnel. Professionals tend to migrate to areas where they believe their work will be more thoroughly rewarded. The International Journal for Equity in Health (2003) suggested that those who work in the health care profession tend to migrate to areas that are more densely populated and where their services may be better compensated. Health care professionals look to areas that will provide their families with an abundance of amenities, including schools for their children, safe neighborhoods and relatives in close proximity. For medical professionals, the appeal of promotions also serves as an incentive for educating oneself further [ 30 ]. As one becomes more educated, the ability and opportunity to migrate increases and this can lead to a further exodus of needed health care professionals.

counselors from harming clients. Most important, there is a guideline barring against dual relationships. When a therapist enters into a therapeutic relationship with a client, he or she should not have any other relationship with that person, such as teacher, friend, employer, or family member, although there are some exceptions to this rule in villages or very rural communities. The principle behind this guideline is really about whose needs are getting met. A therapist should be there to meet your counseling-related needs for empathy, understanding, support, guidance, unburdening, and healing. When a counselor gets his or her own needs (emotional or otherwise) met by the client, he has crossed a boundary, and the therapy process can be damaged or ruined. This is one of many ethical guidelines, and it's important for a counselor to adhere to these. For more information on ethical standards, you can visit these links: 11. Is the counselor licensed? Licensure implies that a counselor has engaged in extensive postgraduate counseling experience which, depending on the state of licensure, may include up to 3,000 hours of required supervised experience. It also means the counselor has passed a licensing exam. There are many unlicensed therapists who have years of experience and do excellent work, but licensed counselors have (generally but not always) jumped through more hoops and have undergone more extensive supervision than unlicensed counselors. You can contact your State Professional Licensing Board to verify the licensure of a provider. 12. Does the counselor have a graduate degree? | HI | HI HT | 424,014 |

then I would say 2004-2009. 03/04 season was his second best after 05/06 imo. Although 08/09 is up there too. And the 2000/01 season. Funnily enough, with the exception of 03/04, his best season have come when he hasn't played as a centre midfielder. That said, in 03/04 he really was a one-man show since Owen wasn't really delivering. It's kind of like watching Suarez this season. Overall though, I think I'll take Gerrard's slight tactical indiscipline for those maverick performances that he was capable of putting in.

Obviously his best position was further up but I will never agree with anyone who says he is average in centre midfield, simply because of that season. I'm certain as well in his early days with a remarkably poor haircut he played central midfield against Arsenal away from home and was absolutely terrific.

of smokestacks. The following year, Weston moved to Mexico where he continued to experiment with 'straight photography' in a series of nude studies of Tina Modotti, his lover and collaborator over the next few years. Modotti introduced him to the artists Diego Rivera and Jose Clemente Orozco who influenced Weston to develop his modernist style. In the later 1920s and 30s Weston worked on his well-known series of close-up still lifes which included abstract, formally precise images of shells, peppers and artichokes and other natural forms. Photographing on a large format camera with exposures of up to four hours and with only natural light, Weston's preoccupation with form and pattern is also evident in his nude studies (particularly of his second wife Charis Wilson) and in his landscapes. In 1937, Weston embarked on a period of sustained work on the American West enabled by the award of a Guggenheim grant - the first ever awarded to a photographer. Weston continued to concentrate on broad, dramatic landscapes towards the end of his life and took his last photographs at Point Lobos in 1948, two years after developing Parkinson's Disease. Edward Weston died at home on January 1, 1958. The essay by Amy Conger concentrates on the relationship between Edward Weston's nudes and his work in other genres (particularly the still-life). Throughout the book, the juxtaposition of Weston's still-lifes and landscapes with his various nude studies highlights the continuities which are evident in Weston's photography - regardless of the subject matter - | IP | IP DS | 133,201 |

public policy, the market, employment, and citizenship, the latter as understood through Hannah Arendt's formulation of "the right to have rights", belies assumptions of racial progress among proponents of multiracial ideology. For example, the disproportionate imprisonment of blacks since the 'war on drugs' of the 1980s and 1990s provides an example of colour-blind policies with a divergent racial impact. A recent book by Michelle Alexander calls this forced migration of millions from black communities to prison facilities the new Jim Crow. In states with felony disfranchisement laws, such as Florida, former convicts are stripped of their voting rights. In the historic 2000 presidential election, Florida election officials purged tens of thousands of law-abiding black citizens from the voting rolls, claiming that their names matched those of felons. AFTER OBAMA Recent studies show the wealth gap between whites and blacks increasing. For generations, blacks were subjected to racial discrimination in mortgage lending and residential segregation, depriving them of opportunities for wealth accumulation across generations through home ownership. In recent years, higher-income blacks remain victims of discrimination by mortgage lenders, often paying on average substantially more for home loans than their white counterparts. In addition, college educated blacks on the job market are finding it necessary to purge their resumes of tell-tale signs of their blackness to get a foot in the door and a face-to-face interview. Some change their names, exchanging putatively 'black' monikers for something more 'mainstream'. Or, they remove black-themed job experiences or activities altogether.

'What's more, at the time, Dana is on a larger brig the CATALINA, which one would think "needed" shanties more -- that is, if they were available.,' Gibb, I may be wrong here but I would have thought the reverse would apply. The larger the ship, the more hands, the less need for shanties. If I remember rightly in the heyday of shantying they came into their own on the clippers and packets notorious for being undermanned. 'yet there was a plenty of room to move about in, more discipline and system, more men, and more good will.' You may be right, Steve. I missed the part about "more men," though that doesn't necessarily mean that on this brig there was a better ration of men:size than there was on the brig PILGRIM. However, you suggest another idea. If, say, the emergence of such shanties was very closely tied to packets specifically (clippers were not yet existing, as far as I know), then it may be that Dana is not so great a source.

there is land down there that is well aligned to tailings dams and tailings treatment solutions. GARRETT: Would you consider putting tailings into the river if the tailings dam didn't seem possible? PARKER: I would suggest that the Board of OTML would be very sensitive towards that and, in fact, given the fact that the Sepik River is a pristine river that certainly would not be an option for us. GARRETT: But you are not ruling it out? PARKER: At this point, I could say to you that we would rule that out because in this day and age you can't move into this type of situation to put tailings and, in fact, in our own operation here we have an active project in play at the moment, looking at building a tailings dam, very close to the mine operations and we anticipate that within twelve months or so we will have a fairly good fix on whether we can actually do that now. Why we can do it as opposed to the BHP era is that, 30 odd years have moved on, engineering solutions have developed, tailings treatment solutions have developed.

had he been found guilty of the "disruptive behavior" charge -- which isn't to say I'm completely happy with it. FIRE is deeply wary of any kind of compelled speech as punishment, and we've seen it used numerous times to odious effect. Many such punishments are blatantly unconstitutional. Other times they're used a reminder of the administration's power over the student. Quite often they're both. The fact that Myers is being forced to apologize for protected speech makes this all the more troubling. And besides, the case can easily be made that Myers has been punished more than enough. After all, he was forced to live with the possibility of a severely unjust punishment hanging over his head, placed on suspension, and ordered, at least initially, to vacate his dorm and leave campus under penalty of arrest. His internship with OPA was also terminated. And, of course, a police record of this incident may well still exist; the notation of his case number on the final page of Myers' warning letter strongly suggests police involvement in his case on at least an administrative level. Seeking to put the incident behind him, Myers plans to complete the sanctions. But if apologies are on the table here, how about SUNY Oswego apologizing to Myers for treating him like a criminal and branding him a threat to the community when he clearly wasn't? | NARRATIVE | NA NE | 3,212,987 |

There was no sign of any chronic or infectious disease," the report said, according to the game and fish commission.

year because they lack health insurance, Congress is considering universal health-care legislation financed by a surcharge on income above $280,000 - that is, a levy almost exclusively on 1 percenters.

produce large and significant movements that change formations -- social formations -- and this is really to take sort of a reversal of perspective. You take, in a way, what was left out of the official histories and use that as your clue to write a history of suspicion that something has been left out. A history like that of the American Revolution would be fascinating and I know at least one person -- Larry Goodwyn at Duke -- who is working on such a project. Well anyway, reversal seems to be a method of genealogy. Another is one connected to it and that's marginality. You don't just pay attention to what the leaders said -- or the men said, or whoever the dominant group is -- you look for the marginal discourses that do two things. They both make clear that there was a marginal discourse and they also show more clearly what the assumptions of the dominant history or discourse was. So marginality is another feature of what might be called a genealogy or archaeological method. The third one seems to me just a very practical principle, its the principle of discontinuity, and that means write your history without the assumption that history is continuous, without the assumption it will end up being a rational story, without the assumption it has a beginning, a middle and an end, but rather accept history in what is called its "materiality", in other words along with all of its contingencies, its | IP | IP PA | 3,113,710 |
This page in a nutshell: You should not use Wikipedia by itself for primary research (unless you are writing a paper about Wikipedia). Wikipedia:Search engine test describes research using search engines and the like. Wikipedia can be a great tool for learning and researching information. However, as with all reference works, not everything in Wikipedia is accurate, comprehensive, or unbiased. Many of the general rules of thumb for conducting research apply to Wikipedia, including: Always be wary of any one single source (in any medium — web, print, television or radio), or of multiple works that derive from a single source. Where articles have references to external sources (whether online or not) read the references and check whether they really do support what the article says. In most academic institutions Wikipedia, like most encyclopedias and other tertiary sources, is unacceptable as a source for facts in a research paper. Some encyclopedias such as Encyclopædia Britannica have notable authors working for them and may be cited as a secondary source in some cases; institutional policies will vary. For example, Cornell University's online guide to APA style uses citations from Britannica in some of its examples.

A joint production of The Wilson Center and NPR, The National Conversation provides a non-partisan forum for deep dialogue and informed discussion of the most significant problems facing the nation and the world. The Islamists Are Coming is the first book to survey the rise of Islamist groups in the wake of the Arab Spring. Often lumped together, the more than 50 Islamist parties with millions of followers now constitute a whole new spectrum -- separate from either militants or secular parties... Alumni News Former Fellow Jason Brownlee recently published Democracy Prevention: The Politics of the U.S.-Egyptian Alliance , a book he wrote while in residence in 2010. Written for students as well as specialists, Democracy Prevention explains how America's alliance with Egypt has impeded democratic change and reinforced authoritarianism over time. The Wilson Quarterly India now rivals China as a model for the world's developing nations. But its recent stumbles have raised doubts about whether it will demonstrate the superiority of the democratic path to development. | IN | IN IB | 65,143 |
her guesses appear reasonable, but in the course of making them the author repeatedly cherry picks data to make her points and in the process substantially weakens the book. One instance where this makes a chapter miss badly is on how economic liberation has affected sexual choices. Building from the work in Stepp's Unhooked, Ms. Rosin correctly notes that many young women play the hookup culture just as viciously as their male counterparts, and then adds a reasonable and interesting twist - that newfound academic and economic equality may have a role in their sexual behavior. However, as she attempts to advance "may have" to "does", Ms. Rosin loses the objective reader. Despite a good deal of peer reviewed research on what characteristics attract both genders in the modern era, the author largely ignores the interests of males save for the arbitrary division of them into "player" and "loser" classes and concluding "free agents" of the player class are uninterested in relationships. Women don't fare much better as her norm for behavior of "hard hearted" professional women becomes Wall Street traders, a curious choice as even their colleagues in finance consider that group as rather spectacular (to put it mildly) outliers of social behavior regardless of their gender. As to casual sex itself, there is nary a mention of the role that the perception of lower consequences for STIs has had versus a generation ago - Nirvana's "I'm so horny, but that's ok, my will is good" versus Girls' "All | IP | IP DS | 282,809 |
or the intentions of our Creator. I firmly believe that Gov. Romney ran a very effective campaign. No fault there. The President had no record of success to run on other than Bin Laden and the auto bailout (successful only by his claim). He didn't offer an agenda for the future. He lied about Benghazi. He flopped in the debates. He had nothing to offer for a vote. And yet . . .. It appears the electorate is stuck defending against the infidels on the other "side". Whether this is the result of 2000 and the animus that was seared deep into the collective psyche's of the left, Bush derangement syndrome, or some other perceived slight is not particularly relevant. Worse, it may be that half the country is prepared to abandon markets and veer toward a socialist model. These realities cause me to wonder, for the first time, whether the tipping point. If so, it is unsustainable and will fail, but when? Doesn't make sense with all the first-rate Republicans, you choose Bushes, Doles, McCains, Romneys. Is it an Everyman concept?

story in context. ij : Alison Croggon : 20 Apr 2011 3:05:51pm Thanks all for your comments. I'm writing on a phone and so you'll have to excuse my brevity (and/or typos). I'd just like to clarify one point, which seems to be misunderstood here. Some commenters seem to be suggesting that my last par is calling for some kind of quota system. I am, as should be clear, no supporter of quotas, because they don't work (it's been tried) and in fact might even be counter- productive. What is required, pace the spanner example, is something rather more difficult: a rethinking of the male-orientated assumptions that underpin so many aspects of our thinking, and which act as code for merit or demerit. Is it an intrinsic demerit that a perfectly capable woman engineer needs a longer spanner, or is it a sign that spammers are not designed to be functional for her? In literature, have a look at some of the contemporary reviews of Wuthering Heights ("fit only for maidservants") to see how a book now recognised as an English classic was dismissed in gendered terms ... the language might have changed, but similar judgements, extrinsic to the quality of the writing itself, seem all too contemporary to me. It's those extrinsic judgments, at all sorts of levels, that I question. julesdog : 20 Apr 2011 3:49:27pm Keep questioning Alison because you are spot on.

the sett territory and wander into other badgers' territories where it may have to fight, and fighting is bad, because the risk of passing the infection, through scratches and bites, increases greatly. That, too, is beyond dispute. I remember tabling a written question some years ago asking what would be the right thing to do if someone were to find an injured badger by the side of the road. The answer that came back was: "Consult your lawyer before doing anything." This situation cannot be allowed to continue. There needs to be a humane way of ending suffering -- for badgers, not lawyers, of course! I have real concerns about the skin test we currently use to identify the disease. Here is a challenge for the armchair scientists. If we carry on testing and culling cattle, we will succeed in breeding cattle that do not show a reaction to the skin test. That is happening already. A constituent of mine tested her cattle, then took one for slaughter, only to find two lesions in different organs of that cow. That meant that the cow was unfit for human consumption and she lost her beef -- which was probably worth about 2,000. She was very angry as her cow had been tested and passed and then been condemned. She wanted compensation from the Government for having such a rotten test. She is right.

in more complicated qualities of what paint can do. So here we have more translucent paint, and the brush-markings and the drips. I try to let the paint evoke expression and motion, more than a flat, geometrically bounded piece of paint can do. Q: What was the last gesture you made on this work? A: I'm not sure. It might have been the green paint on the wires, extending the green from the fabric to the wires. And it might have been these yellow-green drips on the ladder. It could be either of those. Q: I just realized there's another way I could have phrased that, but it's also another question: how do you know a work is done? A: That is a different question. I don't think there's any single finished point for a work. It's done when something's happening with the work that feels like a balanced, coherent disharmony. That's one way to say it. And where if I keep working on it, to discover and struggle with new problems, I'll obliterate the ones I was working on. I could keep working on it, but it'd become something different. And I value what's here, at the moment. | SP | SP IT | 1,738,202 |

Lions' Andrew Harris celebrates a touchdown against the Saskatchewan Roughriders in the final game of the 2012 Canadian Football League's regular season. Photograph by: Gerry Kahrmann , PNG B.C. Lions versus Calgary Stampeders TALE OF THE TAPE QUARTERBACKS -- Calgary starter Drew Tate was in la-la land after being blasted by the Roughriders?? Tearrius George in Sunday??s West semi-final, though George was only following orders from his coach. Corey Chamblin beseeched his players to (??hit ??em in the mouth, hit ??em in the mouth?_) in a pre-game clip caught by the inquisitive TSN cameras. And that??s what George did. Still, with Tate, one never knows where the concussion ends and the spacey personality begins. Then again, that surfer-dude mentality (there is a surfing machine in a park in Tate??s hometown of Baytown, Tex.,) can??t disguise his burning desire to play, as evidenced by his unexpected return from an apparent season-ending shoulder injury. While Tate was out, veteran Kevin Glenn held down the fort. Glenn wasn??t the team??s most outstanding player (see Jon Cornish and Nik Lewis) but definitely was the Stampeders?? most valuable player. Elusiveness, body control, the ability to throw on the run, the Lions?? Travis Lulay is the ultimate winner. Still, Lulay hasn??t played a full game since Oct. 12, and it remains to be seen whether he is the same fluid package he was before his shoulder injury. The Lions?? offensive efficiency was frightening in that | NARRATIVE | NA SR | 463,723 |

CBT is one step, it learns you the basics. But you probably want a more thorough overview of CBT. To learn this there's no other way around it but to read some good books about cbt. That "Cognitive Behavioural Therapy Workbook For Dummies" might be a good way to start to learn about it. Afterwards read some more specialized books about it.

Startup Weekend As speed dating met entrepreneurial drive, dozens of cities around the world took part in the latest instalment of the 54-hour company-building challenge known as Startup Weekend from last Friday to Sunday, including Toronto, Vancouver, Victoria, Winnipeg and Ottawa. The events bring together software developers, designers and non-technical entrepreneurs who listen to dozens of one-minute pitches, vote on the most promising ideas and form teams around those concepts and work all-out over the weekend. The Toronto event was held at the offices of web and mobile app developers The Working Group on Adelaide St. W. and the gathering of about 190 hopeful business builders led to the creation of 22 teams, said co-organizer Sunil Sharma. He said the Seattle-headquartered Startup Weekend organization told him that was the largest number of teams to emerge out of any startup weekend to date. Will any be around in a year? Mr. Sharma pointed out that Venio -- one of the current cohort at Extreme Startups, the Toronto accelerator he helps run -- was formed during last year's event and returned this year for a panel on stubbornly sticking with it.

My situation is quite complicated and "the bedroom department" with my wife is CERTAINLY affected. There are many levels to this however. As I think I might have mentioned, she read some journal enteries that I had written fantasizing about J (my affair partner), so there is a HUGE trust issue from her point of view. To tell you the truth I'd been concentrating so much on the sex with J (which was incredible. We just worked together) that I'd really neglected trying to focus any passion on my wife. I can see how I wanted passion FROM her so badly and I never did very much to create it. On the other hand, it was just there with J. It just was. No asking for anything no trying to create anything. It just was. I wonder if she has that with her husband. I suppose she must have created some passion because she got pregnant with his child right? Emily, I have all of the same thoughts as you.

situation paying of debt, even within bankruptcy, could be worse than focusing on preparing to meet more physical needs. So you need to balance building up store of what you need with paying off debt. This can be a challenge. Fortunately, I live in Texas. Homesteads enjoy unlimited protection, up to 200 acres for rural homesteads. Enough livestock to keep the family feed is also protected. There is no wage garnishment unless the debt is for child support or taxes.

and wrote directly into his Beagle diary , scientific notes or, less regularly, letters. It is curious that there is no reference in the last pages of the Rio Notebook to Darwin's first encounter with the native Fuegians, which is described in his Beagle diary entry for 18 December, but this could be explained by the fact that some of the Rio Notebook pages have been excised. As he declared in his Beagle diary, 'it was without exception the most curious and interesting spectacle I ever beheld', p. 122 , and recorded in his Autobiography how 'the sight of a naked savage in his native land is an event which can never be forgotten', p. 80 . Darwin was struck with the realization that his own ancestors lived in a similar way a few thousand years before. Because of the gap in the notebooks, there is also no mention of the terrible storm of 13 January which wrecked several ships in the seas around the southern tip of South America. This storm nearly brought the Beagle voyage, and the lives of all the men onboard, to a premature end. FitzRoy, in Narrative 2: 126 , reported that even in the normally quiet harbour of Berkeley Sound in the Falklands, the whaler Le Magellan was totally wrecked that day.

what is probably a large gap in most people's knowledge of former New York (especially those who don't live here). Shorto focuses of course on Peter Stuyvesant, probably the one name most people can remember, but he broadens out his character greatly. He focuses even more on Adriaen van der Donck, a young lawyer, previously unknown or little-known, whose presence was a major influence (though again Shorto at times seems to strain this point) on the colony. The dispute between these two and what they represent make up much of the book's description of the colony. A welcome decision on Shorto's part was to place his discussion of the colony in a larger context, both in terms of what was happening elsewhere in America with the better known English colonies and as well the lesser-known European history. He does a good job of clearly and concisely explaining issues of succession, of civil war, of multiple wars between empires, etc. There is just enough that the reader understands the context but not so much that the reader is bogged down or loses sight ever of the books' main focus. All in all, the facts are interesting, the people more so, and if Shorto pushes a bit too far in trying prove a Dutch influence on present-day America or is a bit too imaginative, those flaws are easily spotted, almost as easily ignored, and mar the book only slightly. Recommended. It is hard to picture Manhattan as the Dutch first saw it. | IP | IP DS | 698,095 |

Mike Rogers , a Michigan Republican who is chairman of the House Intelligence Committee. "We know that [Iran is] aggressively pursuing a nuclear weapons program," Rogers said this month. U.S. intelligence on Iran's nuclear ambitions has vacillated over the years. After Iranian dissidents exposed a long-hidden program in 2002, U.S. intelligence warned that Tehran was "determined to build nuclear weapons." In 2006, Bush asked aides to present him with options for a U.S. attack. But newly recruited informants, intercepted conversations and notes from deliberations of Iranian officials led U.S. intelligence to reconsider its warning. In December 2007, the National Intelligence Estimate judged with "high confidence" that Tehran had halted its nuclear weapons program in the fall of 2003. It judged with "moderate-to-high confidence that Tehran at a minimum is keeping open the option to develop nuclear weapons." In his 2010 memoir, "Decision Points," Bush questioned whether analysts had reversed course to atone for their errors on Iraq. Michael Hayden, who was CIA director in 2007, said the analysts who wrote the report had no political motivation. "It was intelligence professionals calling balls and strikes the way they saw them," he said in an interview. He said the 2007 estimate was poorly worded and "quickly got translated into 'Iran stopped its nuclear program,'" which he does not believe is accurate. The more important finding, Hadley said, was that Iran was continuing its efforts to develop fissile material and to build ballistic missiles capable of delivering warheads.

against a wall, resting their head on raised arms or leaning over a banister. Breathing exercises and sputum clearance Specific breathing exercises can be highly beneficial for patients with chronic dyspnoea. Controlled breathing techniques should be taught to patients while they are not breathless, and they should be encouraged to practise them regularly. When they become breathless, they should be able to use these techniques to control their respiratory rate and reduce their discomfort. Removing sputum can reduce dyspnoea, and patients should be encouraged to expectorate and dispose of sputum in a tissue or sputum pot. In hospitals, sputum pots should be changed at least daily to reduce the risk of cross-infection. Hygiene As it can take patients who are breathless several hours to wash, it is useful to discuss coping strategies and additional help that they may require. Some may need oxygen during washing and bathing. Oral hygiene The nose provides natural humidification to inspired air. Breathing through the mouth at an increased respiratory rate can result in a drying effect on the oral mucous membranes, and can be very uncomfortable. Fluids should be encouraged, along with regular mouth care. Oral candidiasis is a common side-effect from inhaled corticosteroids, although this can easily be corrected with good oral hygiene. Rinsing the mouth after using an inhaler should be encouraged. Eating and drinking It is not uncommon for patients with dyspnoea to find it difficult to eat and drink and this can result in malnourishment and dehydration.

at a university). During this time, Einstein described why the sky is blue in his paper on the phenomenon of critical opalescence, which shows the cumulative effect of scattering of light by individual molecules in the atmosphere. In 1911, Einstein became first associate professor at the University of Zurich, and shortly afterwards full professor at the German language-section of the Charles University of Prague. While at Prague, Einstein published a paper calling on astronomers to test two predictions of his developing theory of relativity: a bending of light in a gravitational field, measurable at a solar eclipse; and a redshift of solar spectral lines relative to spectral lines produced on Earth's surface. A young German astronomer, Erwin Freundlich, began collaborating with Einstein and alerted other astronomers around the world about Einstein's astronomical tests. In 1912, Einstein returned to Zurich in order to become full professor at the ETH Zurich. At that time, he worked closely with the mathematician Marcel Grossmann, who introduced him to Riemannian geometry. In 1912, Einstein started to refer to time as the fourth dimension (although H.G. Wells had done this earlier, in 1895 in The Time Machine). In 1914, just before the start of World War I, Einstein settled in Berlin as professor at the local university and became a member of the Prussian Academy of Sciences. He took Prussian citizenship. From 1914 to 1933, he served as director of the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute for Physics in Berlin. He also held the position of extraordinary professor | NARRATIVE | NA DP | 1,450,211 |

There is money to be had in lobby groups, but most are filled up to capacity. So she stepped on the "hate" bandwagon and is rolling in dough. That's it nothing more nothing less. She makes money with making people scared. The comments here are so informative. I thought that Geller was best described as a vile bigot who spreads hate and whose arguments are devoid of intellectual content. Now, I have learned that Pamela is also a dirty-looking witch who has not aged gracefully, who "probably drinks the blood of youthful men, and eats the hearts of virgin girls", whose voice and visage cause people to writhe in agony, and who may become calm if someone just finds her a husband. On a perhaps related note, I can't wait to see if the Loonwatch and Harry's Place commentators get together -- a high-class intellectual debate no doubt awaits. Excellent point. Vicious comments about Geller's appearance and so forth actually detract from legitimate criticism. I'm not a regular reader of Atlas Shrugs, but I dislike the nasty, hateful comments I've seen there when I have visited, and I don't want to see us stooping to their level in comments here.

to all children up to a minimum level. Given that these subjects are so unlikely to be less important, it is dubious whether we can apply the "let's experiment" argument against such a requirement. Perhaps evolution is such a topic? I therefore also think it's important to note differences between teaching social science and history from specific perspectives compared to teaching bogus natural science. After all, social science is very uncertain, and there are very few social scientific "laws". Natural sciences, on the other hand, are at least more certain. There is clearly a difference between teaching ideologically biased interpretations of historical events and teaching bogus natural science that neglects the strong certainty in some natural sciences. For example, there is one mathematics, not several interpretations on how it works (at least at the level I'm discussing here). If I want to set up my own school deciding that I will teach mathematics, but completely revamp it into something that is not mathematics, should I be allowed to proceed? I conclude that the issue is very complex. It is clear that we should have some boundaries regarding what education children should receive. But it's less clear where those boundaries should be. Here in TN, they have taken steps though new legislation to allow creationism back into the classroom. This law turns the clock back nearly 100 years here in the seemingly unprogressive South and is simply embarrassing.

the popularity of the song through the series? RON ROKER : When the production was finished it was decided by Pye records that they wanted to release it as a single. So clutching the first pressings and full of trepidation I approached the BBC radio producers who said, with tongues in cheeks: "Why should we plug a record that's a theme song for an ATV show?" But they were only kidding and backed the song for us. After devising a quiz for Junior Choice , the Saturday morning Radio One Breakfast show with Ed "Stewpot" Stewart, they played it and loads of the children won and received the first toys manufactured of Rupert as a prize just in time for Christmas Eve. With Inigo Pipkin, however, we were asked to make a record of it first, as by that time the powers that be wanted a record to go with the show. OTT : The single version of Inigo Pipkin was very different to the one used on screen -- was this your decision or were you asked to come up with two separate arrangements? RON ROKER : We recorded what became the single version first and gave it a reggae beat, and Jackie once again did a fabulous job. I think that version must have lacked something in the eyes of the producers of the show, because unlike Rupert where the record was used for the front and end of the show, the Inigo Pipkin track was not left | SP | SP IT | 771,470 |
without having to download contacts or messages into devices. "One of the great things about Gmail is that it's browser based," says Wyrick. "We connect through our phones and IMAP clients. It's that ability to not have to say, 'here's your installation of Outlook.'" Gmail's threaded conversations also helps to simplify messages among colleagues. For example, if multiple parties are CC'd in an e-mail, or if multiple e-mails have the same subject line, all of those messages are grouped together with each new e-mail sent, sitting perfectly at the top of your inbox and eliminating the hassle of having to check previous messages. Also, every office environment should have a method for sending quick, by-the-minute messages, and Gmail's answer is Google Chat, which is built directly into the interface of the inbox. "We've really reduced the need for our internal telephony system," says Wyrick about Raidious' use of the messenger. The chat feature also has a video conferencing component that can be useful when colleagues and employees need to correspond from remote locations. While Gmail is a great e-mail client, Wyrick recommends assigning multiple account administrators for your shared business account. "Once you're signed up, you never want to have all your eggs in one basket," he says. "Some day you're going to need to do something when that administrator isn't available."

The mistake many make, IMHO, is that we look to find excuses for why leftists or hate-America/Israel do what they do. There really is nothing to seek or find. It is a belief system that in every sense of the word borders on delusional; and this makes them VERY dangerous because there is absolutely nothing that you can show or provide them; no facts that you can bring to bear that will change their world view. The facts are meaningless. There is NOTHING that will have them even consider an alternate reality. The ONLY solution, literally , is to destroy them before they destroy all of us.

was 22, and screwed up my right knee trying to do full-lotus without being properly prepared. I learned the hard way that there is nothing sacred in a posture. Sure a meditation posture can definitely help to circulate energy and generate 'fire', but it's not absolutely so. So if you have an injury, please don't feel bad if you have to sit on a chair, or stool. As long as your back is upright, and your belly is open, it's good enough to meditate. 5) If you are comfortable sitting on the floor, it really helps to keep your knees on the ground, with your buttocks raised higher then them, on a cushion. If you have your knees higher than your buttocks, you get weird circulation things happening, which makes the experience rather unpleasant! 6) Don't spend too much time worrying whether you are 'doing it right' or not. There is no one judging your practice, and no 'meditation police' that are going to issue you a ticket!

succinct description of a particular aspect of gurmat. There is a sentence in your essay which may be reconsidered. Your observation that "Some people say that we need to emulate God's qualities and manifest them in us ..." appears to be an error. Does gurbani support this? Can we understand all his qualities? Yes, several verses from gurbani will guide us to emulate divine attributes. Let me cite some evidence. For example, naam simran is meant to become aware of the reality of the divine within each one of us. "Within this body are all treasures of the divine identity; they are discovered through contemplating the Guru's shabad," says Guru Amar Das [GGS:754]. Naam simran practices include not simply praying to God, to glorify God, to obey God, to fear God, or to reject God, but in fact, to 'Become like God!' Such a state is to be enjoyed by all exalted, embodied, and intelligent beings. According to Guru Nanak, we are destined to become like God but have been tricked into becoming inmates, posing as creatures of destiny, a ghastly spread between what we are and what we could be. Guru Nanak teaches us that the more you recognize, practice and express your authentic self and inculcate the desired attributes, the more meaning, joy and fulfillment you will experience in your life. If you desire spiritual and personal growth, a change in your outer world, a new or better relationship with your environment, a more fulfilling job, or more | OP | OP OB | 3,046,906 |
