While designing the back of the cards for my first Christmas range, a New Zealand birds DIY Christmas decorations and gift tag series, I realised I needed to give more in-depth instructions than the space on the back would allow...so here it is. Firstly cut out the parts into workable sized chunks which makes cutting the final shapes easier. Remember to cut in towards the tricky corners to prevent bending the card. I pasted a stiff sketch paper onto the back of the entire card before I started to give extra strength but this is not necessary. You could also paste a patterned paper on the back giving the birds a two sided appeal, instead of having a plain white back. After you have cut out the shapes lay them together how you want them and mark where you are going to cut the slot for the paper fastener as it helps if they all line up. Make this as small as possible, just big enough for the stud's prongs. Living on an island I had a limited choice of paper fasteners (or brads) to choose from but have since discovered Sullivans has a large range of decorative brads they sell for scrap booking (examples below). The finished decorations make great gift tags or tree decorations. To hang them I used fine decorative ribbon (but any string would do) which I taped on the back. It took a bit of trial and era to get them balanced how I wanted

consumer advocacy company was teaching it for free everyone would do it.....$3500 for a spreadsheet just spells scam and especially because the companies are set up as multi level marketing companies....The theor though is extremely powerful May 22, 2012 Peter M Vaughan @ 9:56 pm : Deryck, You are incorrect. I notice that your post does not use any example calculation, and the reason is clear. The example calculation clearly show that you cannot borrow money short term at high interest rates to pay down long term money at lower interest rates and come out ahead. You can ONLY pay down your total debt more quickly by applying more money to the debt. If you borrow 100k for a mortgage, then borrow 5k on a HELOC and pay it against the mortgage, you have a 95k mortgage and a 5k HELOC, so your debt is still 100k. You will notice that Doug has completely stopped responding to these posts because he has NO factual argument to refuse the statement that your debt only goes down when you pay more. If you would like to run an amortization schedule, make an excel spreadsheet, and post a link showing that there is ANY way that using a HELOC is remotely "overwhelmingly powerful" I will analyze it for you. The best analysis I have seen showed that a HELOC could, over 30 years, save $50 on a 200k mortgage because it is at a slightly lower effective rate, but only if you get

T.S. Eliot: Four Quartets Little Gidding I Midwinter spring is its own season Sempiternal though sodden towards sundown, Suspended in time, between pole and tropic. When the short day is brightest, with frost and fire, The brief sun flames the ice, on pond and ditches, In windless cold that is the heart's heat, Reflecting in a watery mirror A glare that is blindness in the early afternoon. And glow more intense than blaze of branch, or brazier, Stirs the dumb spirit: no wind, but pentecostal fire In the dark time of the year. Between melting and freezing The soul's sap quivers. There is no earth smell Or smell of living thing. This is the spring time But not in time's covenant. Now the hedgerow Is blanched for an hour with transitory blossom Of snow, a bloom more sudden Than that of summer, neither budding nor fading, Not in the scheme of generation. Where is the summer, the unimaginable Zero summer? If you came this way, Taking the route you would be likely to take From the place you would be likely to come from, If you came this way in may time, you would find the hedges White again, in May, with voluptuary sweetness. It would be the same at the end of the journey, If you came at night like a broken king, If you came by day not knowing what you came for, It would be the same, when you leave the rough road And turn behind the

The problem was then, and is now, that once Civ 2 came out, I didn't really play Civ. When Civ 3 was released, I never played Civ 1/2 again. Now with Civ 4 released, it is unlikely you will play any of the other versions (assuming your computer is up to it). This is the only real problem I have with this box set. It does represent good value for money, and the booklet it contains is quite interesting, but are you really going to play the old games, especially the first 2, for more than a few minutes? Especially when you can play the much better looking (and better playing) 3 & 4. It is more than likely that you will hardly play the first two games, and will play either 3 or 4 depending on your computer's specs. Saying that, 1/2 are small enough to probably sneak onto your work pc!

ace it. Make up some questions and keep on talking in class. In addition, asking questions will show your teacher that you're paying attention and are engaged in the material. 4 Complete homework and assignments on time . Most teachers assign homework for a reason -- to reinforce the things you learn in class. Completing your homework will help you prepare for tests and will also give you something to refer to when you participate ("I was a little lost on problem 5" or "This reminds me of chapter 9 from last night's reading because...") 5 Write neatly ! Illegibility is a silly way to lose points on homework or a test. If you really have trouble writing neatly, talk to your teacher about typing assignments. 6 Don't goof off in class . If you do this you're most likely to get in trouble and it will ruin your reputation with the teacher. It will also interfere with your ability to learn while your in the class, and thus reflect negatively in your grades. Make friends with the teacher's favorite students. Make sure that you have a close group of friends that understand your need to succeed and will thus not distract you during class time. 7 Study for tests . Begin a few days before the test rather than the night before. Plan your week out for preparation. Remember that studying doesn't mean you have to lock yourself away from your friends until after the test, but be wise

Trade Practices Act (now Consumer Code) is a very effective provision but one that is drawn in brief and general terms. It has been subject to significant review and development over time. It is now a very important part of consumer protection and commercial law. Michael Rivette : They'd still do that under statutory course of action. See, I've really waxed and waned with this whole issue of a statutory tort, because quite frankly, you know, with what we have now, as an experienced litigator, Bit of a plug eh... I can actually either stop or seek damages or equitable compensations for most breaches of what is fundamentally privacy. Of course it's couched in terms of either breach of confidence or under one of the consumer protection laws, or under trespass, or under the Surveillance Act. It may be couched under different terms, but I can clearly protect it now. What hasn't been decided is how the balance of freedom of expression actually arises. I don't completely agree with that proposition. While the breach of confidence for misuse of private information is available and with Giller v Procopets , sustainable it is still a more difficult claim to frame than the UK claims. Relying on trespass and consumer protection laws involves a sometime artificial construct which is less efficient that pleading a cause of action that deals with the right to be protected, that of privacy. The Australian courts at a superior court level are far less amenable to stretching

And that's just for starters. Here are seven of the signs that tell you she's thinking 'engagement' - and I'm not talking about an engagement at the hairdresser! PA She keeps mentioning Kate and Wills' royal wedding Sure sign No 1 : Suddenly she seems to be mentioning 'Wills and Kate' a lot - are these old friends you wonder. Then the penny drops and you realise she's talking about Prince William and Kate Middleton's upcoming marriage. Yes, of course this was a hot topic on every woman's lips when they first got engaged but suddenly it rears its head again... and again. Sure sign No 2 : Quite out of the blue she asks if you think you two have got a 'special' relationship. She seems very genuine and as if she wants an honest answer. She doesn't seem to have a hidden agenda. But take my word for it, no woman would raise such a question unless she wants your relationship to go to the next level.

not the new Jose Mourinho, and while he knows that himself, he seems to be fighting against the need to doing things in a very Mourinho fashion. The Real Madrid manager can command whatever he wants, demand the keys to the Bernabeu, hook his best centre-back for an important Champions League game, receive criticism from the Madrid press, yet still receive plenty of backing. It's not always about PR and giving everyone what they want, but it does take up a decent measure of the job. Villas-Boas is bold and knows where he's going. His time to make rash decisions and speak openly about topics from a questionable angle will come. But right now, the manager is really making it difficult for himself when he doesn't need to. 4 Comments November 23rd, 2012 at 7:08 pm SP says: Only he hasn't 'tried to doit his way' -- he specifically 'didn't' play a 4-3-3 because he didn't have the players for it.

The encryption measures "only reinforce the perception, as well as the reality, that P2P technology is being primarily used for illegal ends," the letter says. In related news, the state AGs noted that people who exercise their constitutional rights, such as the right against self-incrimination, "only reinforce the perception, as well as the reality, that civil liberties are being primarily used for illegal ends." Burns departed from minimum sentencing guidelines of 33 to 41 months imprisonment, noting Myers' cooperation in exposing and breaking up several warez groups. Another reason why darknets will be invulnerable to legal attack. If you keep them small, you'll be safe, but subject to the social controls of the group. If they grow too large, they'll become vulnerable to legal attack. Darknets will be a significant part of our filesharing future, I believe, but they won't be perfect substitutes for the current, open filesharing networks. Ultimately, I think they will be supplemental and complimentary to licensed filesharing networks.

of them -- like Dr. No, Ernst Stavro Blofeld and Auric Goldfinger -- have their sites set on world domination or personal wealth. In many cases, James Bond just gets in their way. Sure, they want to kill Bond, but most of them are in the game for other reasons. However, we have seen villains have a personal vendetta against Bond, whether they see him as an ultimate quarry (like Scaramanga in The Man with the Golden Gun ) or they have a dicey past with Bond that drives their mission (like Alec Trevelyan in GoldenEye ). 01:55 -- Things Get Personal Along with a villain that has an axe to grind, Skyfall is notable for seeing things get personal for Bond. Most of the films over the years show a brilliant (and sometimes not-so-brilliant) spy just doing a job. Often, the most offense Bond takes is when the bad guy cock-blocks him by killing a really good lay. However, things have gotten personal before with Bond, most notable Daniel Craig's first outing in Casino Royale when he was still wet behind the ears and eager to fall in love. However, there's a historical precedence for this trend as well. In On Her Majesty's Secret Service , Blofeld kills Bond's wife, which motivates 007 to go after him in Diamonds Are Forever and later drop him (or rather a nondescript version of him) down a smokestack in For Your Eyes Only .

to say the least of it, substantial. Some of the humbler classes would half ruin themselves by their lavish expenditure at these times: funeral reform had not been heard of in those days unfortunately. But what about the bees? Well! they had to be feasted also, and feasted, be it observed, in identically the same way as the house-folk had been; that is to say, a small portion gathered from every item which went to form the entertainment indoors had to be placed in a convenient situation for the bees without; such small portions were collected generally in a saucer or plate. Bread, cake, tea, sugar, beef, ham, mustard, salt; even the wine was not omitted, this being steeped into the biscuits. The idea was that if the bees were not thus feasted they would all certainly die. I remember on one occasion talking to the widow of a farmer in the neighbourhood of Egton about these bee customs, and was somewhat amazed by her telling me of the ritual they thought proper to observe at the time of her husband's death with regard to their own bees. She dilated upon the nature of the feast, and went through a long string of viands, a sort of 'bill of fare' of what they set before the bees, winding up at the last, as if she quite enjoyed the relating of it, by adding 'aye! bacca 'an pipes an' all!'

How can the Federal reserve system be made to look more like free banking in this regard? In other words if people decide to hold more cash and or pay down loans shouldn't the Fed just print more currency and allow the banks keep it on their books like demand deposits? Countries participating in free trade in a globalized system, especially in unregulated global financial and currency markets, cannot operate on Chartalist principles because of the foreign-exchange dilemma. For a country participating in globalized trade, any government printing its own currency to finance domestic needs beyond the size of its foreign-exchange reserves will soon find its currency under attack in the foreign-exchange markets, regardless of whether the currency is pegged to a fixed exchanged rate or is free-floating. The only country exempt from this rule, up to a point, is the uS because of dollar hegemony" What is an "attack" in a free floating system?

How to Change Your Thinking With Affirmations How to Change Your Thinking With Affirmations... Yesterday I spoke with a woman who takes great pride in her work. Even so, she said that she didn't feel she was good enough, that she's very hard on herself, although she knows she shouldn't be -- knows she shouldn't do that. I asked if when she worked, was she doing the best work that she was capable of. She replied, Yes, I try to do my best. To clarify, I asked -- So even though you know you are doing the best job you can do in that moment, you still believe that it's not good enough? She replied, Yes, but I know I shouldn't. I looked at her with a questioning smile. She repeated, I know I shouldn't but I do. And then she told me that when she was still married, her ex-husband used to beat her every time she didn't do a good job. But sometimes, even though she tried very hard, he beat her anyway. He'd call me stupid and say I'm doing it wrong, she told me. It seemed that no matter what this woman did in the past, it was never good enough for her ex-husband. I asked her, As an independent woman who is no longer married to that man, do you believe now that you are stupid? She replied, Well no, I tell myself that I'm not stupid. Aaah... she tells herself that she's not stupid.

highly of the one sacrifice for sin, that for you to desire another is evil in his sight. If you reject the one sacrifice of the Son of God, there remains no hope for you; nor ought there to be. Our Lord's way of putting away sin is so just to God, so honoring to the law, and so safe for you, that if you reject it your blood must be on your own head. By once offering up himself to God, our Lord has done what myriads of years of repentance and suffering could never have done. Blessed be the name of the Lord, the sin of the world, which kept God from dealing with men at all, was put away by our Lord's death! John the Baptist said, "Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world." God has been able to deal with the world of sinners in a way of grace, because Jesus died. I thank our Lord even more, because the actual sins of his own chosen?even of all those who believe on him in every age?have been put away. These sins were laid on him; and in him God visited man for them. "He his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree"; and so put them away for ever, and they are cast into the depths of the sea.

A similar campaign to change the law in Scotland was defeated in 2010 by 85 votes to 16. Not only Parliamentarians but the British Medical Association, the Royal Colleges of Physicians, Surgeons and General Practitioners; the Royal College of Anaesthetists; and the British Geriatrics Society remain strongly opposed to any legal change. Is this because they are all in favour of suffering and pain? 95% of Palliative Medicine Specialists -- these are the people who care for dying patients day in and day out -- are opposed to a change in the law. Are they all uncaring? The Association of British Neurologists warn that severe depression will lead to cases of assisted dying and that a law which says two doctors can determine such cases will offer few safeguards. Do they have no understanding of either patients or law? And what of disabled people? Baroness (Jane) Campbell, who has spinal muscular atrophy, who is a Commissioner of the Equality and Human Rights Commission says: "I and many other severely disabled people will not perceive your support for euthanasia as an act of compassion but one founded in fear and prejudice." Do we have a better understanding of how disabled people view euthanasia than the organisations which represent them?

three types of images: topographic maps dating from the mid-19th century to the present, pioneering aerial photographs taken by archaeologists between the 1920s and 1950s, and remote-sensing data such as satellite imagery. It then merges these components to create pictures of on-the-ground features such as archaeological sites that show how the landscape of the Middle East -- broadly defined by CAMEL's researchers as extending from Greece to Afghanistan to the Horn of Africa -- has changed over the past two centuries. The resulting image is a dense jumble of varying pixel sizes and colors, but digitally peeling away its layers is like unearthing a rich, virtual trove of information. This data is invaluable, especially to scholars studying the Middle East. Before the mid-20th-century advent of mechanized farming techniques, deep plowing, urban development, and modern warfare, this landscape had remained relatively untouched for thousands of years. Through composite CAMEL images, it is now possible to follow everything from the course of ancient rivers and patterns of vegetation growth to the emergence of recent looters' holes and the damage sustained to millennia-old mud-brick palaces during the latest wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. CAMEL is also revolutionizing the way archaeologists approach fieldwork in the region. "For the first time, we can actually see sites as part of a broader archaeological landscape of topography, ancient agriculture, herding systems, and roads," says Oriental Institute (OI) director Gil Stein, who used CAMEL data at Tell Zeidan, the sixth- to fifth-millennium B.C. site in Syria where he

Until The End Of The World Lyrics Haven't seen you in quite a while I was down the hold just passing time Last time we met was a low-lit room We were as close together as a bride and groom We ate the food, we drank the wine Everybody having a good time Except you You were talking about the end of the world I took the money I spiked your drink You miss too much these days if you stop to think You lead me on with those innocent eyes You know I love the element of surprise In the garden I was playing the tart I kissed your lips and broke your heart You...you were acting like it was The end of the world (Love...love...) In my dream I was drowning my sorrows But my sorrows, they learned to swim Surrounding me, going down on me Spilling over the brim Waves of regret and waves of joy I reached out for the one I tried to destroy You...you said you'd wait 'til the end of the world [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/u/u2/until+th\\... ]

You remind me. LIZ JACKSON: The Bulletin, 1978. The journalist, Malcolm Turnbull. (One screen text: The leading light of the right wingers in New South Wales is twenty-year-old Tony Abbott. He has written a number of articles... (which have) given him a stature his rather boisterous and immature rhetoric doesn't really deserve. Abbott is opposed to any legalisation of homosexuality and generally presents an old fashioned DLP image) LIZ JACKSON (to Tony Abbott): When did you change your mind on that? TONY ABBOTT: Well, I guess as time has gone by I've had a much wider experience of life, certainly when it comes to homosexuality. I have many friends who are gay. I've never had a personal issue with it. I've always treated people as I find them and that's the way it should be. LIZ JACKSON: At the end of 1980 Tony Abbott won a Rhodes scholarship to Oxford University. He came away with an MA in politics and philosophy, and two Oxford blues for boxing.

Tit-for-tat exchange between chief constable and new commissioner CHIEF Constable Colin Port and the new Avon and Somerset Police and Crime Commissioner Sue Mountstevens engaged in a tit-for-tat exchange of statements about why Mr Port is stepping down. After The Post exclusively revealed Mr Port would not be seeking to renew his contract when it expires on January 26, Ms Mountstevens -- who has the power to appoint or remove chief constables -- released a statement at 7.57am yesterday paying tribute to his eight years' service. PCC Sue Mountstevens Colin Port   She said: "Avon and Somerset's chief constable Colin Port has made great improvements for this area. He has increased detection rates and reduced crime. He will be greatly missed by staff and partners I know that he will continue to do great things and I wish him every success for the future." At 9.13am, Mr Port released his statement, which included the lines: "Yesterday I had a meeting with the Police and Crime Commissioner. She told me she intends to start the process to recruit a Chief Constable to take Avon and Somerset forward. I told her I had no intention of applying for my job. A response from Ms Mountstevens came at 9.48am: "Everyone is aware that the Chief Constable's contract expires on January 26. Because of that I would like to run a competitive process to appoint a Chief Constable for my whole term of office. It was his choice not to apply, but I

case, and that is a decision that only the Crown (as the prosecutor) can make. Because it is the Crown's decision, it is very important to remember that in order to complete diversion, you have to satisfy the Crown that you did what you were supposed to do (e.g. community service, counselling etc.). A judge or justice of the peace does not decide what cases are eligible for diversion. Usually offences that the Crown considers to be minor will be approved for diversion. Examples of these may be: As well, usually only accused persons who have no prior criminal record are eligible for diversion. If you've had prior dealings with the police, even if you were never charged, this may affect the Crown's decision on whether to offer diversion. However, each case is different and everybody's circumstances are different, so there are always some cases where the Crown may agree or disagree to offer diversion even if that's not what is expected. Sometimes cases are pre-approved for diversion by the Crown, and it may indicate in your disclosure that your case has been pre-approved. In other cases, your lawyer or duty counsel may, after looking at your charges and your disclosure, talk to the Crown (usually in a resolution meeting) about possible diversion. You should always speak to your lawyer or duty counsel before you make a decision about diversion. Agreeing to diversion is not the same as pleading guilty to your charge(s), but there can be consequences that you

with lack of service provision. Natasha Mitchell : And the experience of people with intellectual disabilities in the justice system is the focus of this week's investigation by Background Briefing here on ABC Radio National. I'll link to it. Elizabeth Richardson : People who come into the mental health court are not necessarily going to be new to the health and welfare services. I think that's the idea behind them, people think, 'Oh well, these people are offending because they're not receiving treatment,' but the South Australian 2001 process evaluation found that 95 per cent of new referees were already in contact with health and welfare agencies. So that raises some very serious questions around what wasn't working, and why they were still offending even though they were in contact with the health and welfare agencies. They were probably falling through the cracks, as we've heard, but it does require some creativity. And it requires having quite a lot of resources at your disposal, a range of resources at your disposal so that you can say, 'OK, well this person is not working on this one, we'll try them in that one.' But it's not always as straightforward as just slotting people into treatment. And, look, the clinical teams are very good at doing that admittedly. Natasha Mitchell : Elizabeth Richardson. So there's the rub. It's all very well to have a mental health court diverting people away from a prison sentence where appropriate, but then you have to have

that every man will do his duty." Nelson died in the battle; his last words were "Thank God I have done my duty." When the news of his death reached England, the king wept, as did thousands of ordinary citizens, who lined the route of his funeral. Throughout his naval career, Nelson was wounded many times in combat, losing an arm and the sight in his right eye. As a person he could be vain, thoughtless and even, at times, reckless in his ruthless desire for recognition and glory. He showed little pity to those who crossed him. But he was also enthusiastic, eager and patriotic, as well as brave. He was noted for his ability to inspire and bring out the best in his men. His qualities, good and bad, set him apart from his contemporaries and are the reason that he is still remembered today.

The exterior is so unassuming, you may miss it if not looking carefully. Stepping into the reception area guests are presented with an intimate and inviting environment. Windsor Arms Reception Area Having just 28 rooms, the Arms is truly a boutique hotel. Rooms really isn't the proper word. Suites is the better term. Each suite is multiple rooms.

General Comment: I don't know about everybody else, but for me, this seems to be a song about a relationship that has well long run it's course and that the guy singing it knows this and he is actually glad its over, I know that much. Absolutely beautiful song, my favourite Hip track of them all, really touching. General Comment: I always took this song as a father's point of view on a divorce with an impossibly manipulative woman. The first verse seems to be directed towards the child, whom the mother has been trying to turn against the father. I have no idea what the weather man thing is about, but that's why the hip is great.. you'll find meaning to verses even years after hearing the song. All I know is this verse expresses a lot of frustration. The 'just on trips' is probably about how futile a little family vacation is...as in it can't patch an apparent void between the parents. The final verse seems to be directed towards the woman herself. Call her out for what she is and shut her out in the cold. reminds me of a father with his child whom he hasn't seen very often and now they are on some 'mini vacation' (or so he would tell the child) - but all the father can afford is to drive from one motel to another across the prairies or 'up north'... or maybe the father can't bring the child home for any

The clump of hemp agrinomy to my right looks just strong enough to support at least part of my weight, if I can get a bit side strain for the downstream angle it maybe enough. "Thank phew for that!" I say out loud to myself...or at least words to that effect. I nearly went in there when the fish came free and I got stung all up my arm trying to grab my balance back. It worked though and a nice looking barbel is now wallowing in front of me. I grab the net and literally engulf it in one fluid motion, before dropping the rod and making sure I have the net and my balance properly controlled. Now comes that moment I think all anglers love - the sudden euphoric sense of relief.

pieces of the 5' framing wood side-by-side -- you can add wood glue between the boards if you want, but it's not necessary. Place two mending plates* about 2 feet from either edge, so they should be about 1 foot apart. Screw your mending plates to the wood with the 1" screws. Flip over and secure two more mending plates to the other side in the same fashion (if you don't like the industrial-meets-medieval look of the mending plates, you could just buy more oak and secure it from the bottom to have a clean wooden top). Repeat this process for the remaining 4 pieces of 5' wood, and you should now have two secured surfaces of your corner desk. *I chose the mending plates with the most holes, because I knew I was opting for a thinner plate (liked the look). So I wanted the most opportunities to secure it. But you could definitely make this work with a more traditional mending plate. Next, you'll need to measure the width of one of your surfaces. Four 2x6s next to each other usually adds up to 22" or so, but measure to be sure.* Mark a notch the measurement of the width (probably 22") from edge of the surface along the length. Connect the notch to the opposing corner with your pen, and this should create your 45 angle. Saw along the line. Repeat this process with the other surface. *Fun fact: A 2x6 is not actually 2" by 6"

this works. We were told that we were one of the few doing it right. August 18, 2011 Remi @ 3:24 am : Peter, Qwest, (1) Outstanding first mortgage of $50,000 at 6% (2) Equity in the house of $150,000 (3) Get a HELOC of $50,000 at 4% (4) Pay off first mortgage with HELOC money (5) I am now left with a $50,000 HELOC at 4% It seems that both loans could be paid off in a similar manner. The interest on both is also deductable. Asking Peter: What would the bank say is so horrible about chosing (5)? Peter M Vaughan @ 5:32 am : Remi, The bank will not give you a fixed rate HELOC at a lower rate than a fixed rate first mortgage. That's what they will tell you. Search on bankrate. For a 50k loan with a lot of equity, you can get a 30 yr mortgage at 4% or a HELOC for 4.5%. Remi @ 9:02 am : Thank you Peter. So now the argument is that through judiciously taking out and putting back money (from paychecks etc.) in your HELOC that you could effectively lower the interest rate of 4.5% of your HELO to maybe 2%. I can see that by using your HELOC as a sort of checking account where you deposit your income that you may not have to pay the full 4.5%. Is there anything wrong with this reasoning? I appreciate your comments Peter. Peter M Vaughan @ 8:11

SHIPWRECK by a sailor, William Falconer. This edited edition is from 1806; seems the first edition was probably 1803. It is a footnote reference to the old spoke windlass, in which one must continually remove and replace one's handspike. As the Windlass is heaved about in a vertical direction, it is evident that the effort of an equal number of men acting upon it will be much more powerful than on the Capstan. It requires, however, some dexterity and address to manage the Handspec, or Lever, to the greatest advantage; and to perform this the Sailors must all rise at once upon the Windlass, and, fixing their bars therein, give a sudden jerk at the same instant; in which movement they are regulated by a sort of Song pronounced by one of the number. The most dexterous managers of the Handspec in heaving at the Windlass, are generally supposed to be the Colliers of Northumberland; and of all European Mariners, the Dutch are certainly the most awkward, and sluggish, in this manoeuvre. [Was the action anything like cotton-screwing?] For an illustration of this kind of windlass (not sure just how realistic?) see here, at 2:40: old fashioned windlass That is it for my 1810s and earlier references, for now. I am moving on to the 1820s. Please join in! I imagine many of these will be pilfered from the Sf-Sydney thread, including one that Lighter mentions a few posts up.

and higher forms of consciousness. Many sources have stated that the humanoid and reptilian populations of this universe have been at war in the past, and that there is at presence enough of a balance of power that the reptilians are functioning within the parameters of an agreement between the two factions regarding colonization. However, the reptilians are identifying their facilities on Mars as exploratory, to appear to not be colonizing. Meanwhile, we humans of earth are not considered a viable colony because we are of so many genotypes that our designation is yet to be determined, and our governments have been doing their best to destroy our own planet, so we are not seen, as a whole, as a race ready to be allowed to step foot off of this planet. So my interpretation of the message on Crabwood is as follows; Beware the bearers of FALSE gifts & their BROKEN PROMISES. (Grey/Reptilian alliance, technology "gifts" and use of the human race for experimentation and flesh/spiritual food source) Much PAIN but still time.(Nibiru or simply our past history of wars and famine and destruction of the human race by these nefarious entities and their human minions, the so called Illuminati).

"Meeting Ranking" exercise? That way, the manager can compare the meetings which were voted on top versus the meetings on the bottom and compare them. It is unfortunate that for Metric 1 and 2 there is no reference made to Prof Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi who has coined the word 'Flow' for the state of complete involvement. The Anxiety / Boredom Matrix based on Job Challenge and Job Skill has also been conceptualized by him. Due reference or credit should have been given. This article on 5 management metrics rings a bell with me and is already in practice over the years except with a different name or concept in my understanding. So while I pen my thoughts it is to demonstrate the relevance in my world and NOT in any way put down your work in form or fashion. I am going by metric as numbered by you in your article: # 1 -- Lean Six Sigma the principle of process excellence shows that one measures the inputs (Xs) and predicts the output (Y) in the famous Y = f(x) equation and can proactively expect a certain output based on the dialed in inputs. # 2 -- Goals and objectives set at the level of entitlement and close to a stretch goal.

of the Bill, which is a very simple one indeed. [An HON. MEMBER: "Why? "] For one reason which I can 263 give right away. Supposing a Bill had been introduced at the present time for the reform of the Second Chamber while the suspensory veto still existed we should never have got that Bill through this present Parliament. Therefore, it seems to me more or less a waste of time to enter into too great detail as to the constitution of the kind of Second Chamber that various hon. Members would like to see Hon. Members opposite yesterday evening referred to the fact that there was very little excitement over this Bill. After the entertainment of the right hon. Gentleman the Leader of the Opposition this afternoon, that complaint has now been put right. We had plenty of excitement then. I, for one, must confess to having been greatly entertained by the right hon. Gentleman, even though I could not discover the substance of the argument which he was making against the Bill. Hon. Members opposite who have spoken against this Bill have adduced only one argument against it. It is the suspicion of some Machiavellian intent on the part of the Government to introduce a certain Bill -- the steel industry Bill or some other -- and that they have brought forward this Parliament Bill in order to enable that to be done. Supposing that was the case, and supposing the Government representatives confessed that was the reason:

be a prefect in life. I'm not gonna apologize but i'm gonna change my self by not being late and respect others. Dave, so sorry about the late reply; gosh, I bet you'll never see this but here's hoping you do. I really reply to all my comments right away but this one slipped through the cracks.... So having said that, I am actually very confused by your comment. Are you punctual or late? Hopefully the latter, Hi Tina, I am sorry you get hurt. I do too, frankly. Well, more angry than hurt -- and yes, they don't "mean" to but it is a complete disrespect of our time. No other way to explain it. Educate, educate! Thank you for this post, Farnoosh! I was inspired by your words, and I'm with you on the importance of punctuality as an expression of respect and love...it shows that you don't take the people in your life for granted. Great article! Punctuality is something I've been thinking about lately. My parents and I had this on-going joke about how Hispanic people are always late. My dad is pastor of a Hispanic church and I know how frustrating it is for him when the members are so careless about their punctuality. My best friend's mom is from a spanish country but it never ceases to astound me how the only "spanish" trait about my best friend is that she is late. Always. To dates, church, school, weddings, meetings... absoloutley everything. It's sad

She is completely out of touch with how to do the tasks she used to do, however, because she no longer does them on a daily basis. I have approached her before putting the emphasis on how "I am wondering if there is anything I could be doing differently" etc. to broach the subject of her micromanaging. Were it not for the fact that she micromanages everyone in my office and they all have the same opinion I might think it was performance-related.

How the Brits do it: Cher Lloyd was flown in to guest star on the show and wowed the crowd with her new hit Former contestant: The 19-year-old was one of the finalists in British X Factor in 2010 and sang her new single Oath on Thursday's show Wearing a dress to look like cut-down denims and a waistcoat and with knee-high black socks, Cher was joined by Becky G - in black leggings and a gold top - as well as a team of backing dancers for the high-energy performance. They got a standing ovation from the judges - with host Khloe Kardashian-Odom, in a figure-hugging black dress, calling it "phenomenal". The show also featured a touching performance by another group of special guests - a choir from a struggling inner city performing school that the show helped completely re-equip for their music program. Impressive: Loyd received a standing ovation and host Khloe Kardashian called her performance phenomenal Dressed all in white, the youngsters from Bancroft Middle School in L.A. sang the moving chorus to Coldplay's Fix You after the finalists sang their own parts.

Charr vs. Klitschko: One of them may get Haye in 2013 By Jason Kim: Unbeaten Manuel Charr (21-0, 11 kO's) has been out front about his desire to face former WBA heavyweight champion David Haye in 2013 if Charr can get past WBC heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko (44-2, 40 KO's) on September 8th in Moscow, Russia. Vitali, too, is somewhat interested in taking on Haye next year, but his situation is a little more murky. Vitali is running for a parliament seat in the October elections in Ukraine and he's already said that he may choose to retire from boxing if he wins that seat. He's got a good chance of getting that position that he desires, and that means that he'll have to make a big decision about whether to retire or not. The money that Vitali would make in a Haye fight would be huge, and it would be the perfect fight for Vitali to end his career on. However, Haye is a dangerous opponents because he really moves well, hits hard and he's difficult to beat when facing slow fighters like Vitali. Wladimir Klitschko did remarkably well in beating Haye last year in July, but Wladimir's a lot more athletic than Vitali with faster hands and better power. Haye couldn't get away with much against Wladimir, because he kept nailing him with jabs and straight hands. Vitali's jab isn't that great and his right hands are a lot slower. Haye would have a great chance of countering

Terms With WWI lasting longer than expected and no suitable way to reward services to the war effort by civilians at home and servicemen in support positions, King George V created another order with five levels. The first two levels confer knighthood, and since 1935, have not been available to anyone retaining Canadian Citizenship. The three levels - Commander, Officer and Member - have been available to Canadian citizens. The order could be given generously for services to the Empire at home. in India and in the Dominions and colonies. The order was created mainly to award non-combatant services to the war and was to include women, whom most existing orders excluded. When the order was created in 1917 it had only one division, but was divided into Civil and Military divisions in 1918. The order at any level can be awarded for gallantry as well as for service. The order took an abrupt change in 1937 when the insignia and the colour of the ribbon were changed. Description A member wears a silver badge (2" wide) on the left breast (no enamels). Obverse Original Badge: A cross patonce (four arms with three points on each arm) of silver-gilt with the arms enamelled pearl-grey, surmounted by an Imperial Crown. The circular centre, in gold, shows the figure of Britannia, holding a trident and seated beside a shield bearing the national flag. The centre is surrounded by a circular band, enamelled crimson and bearing the motto FOR GOD AND THE EMPIRE

The Austraila I know and love is dead. We need a referendum on immigration because our gutless government cannot make the hard decisions. Forget about outdated UN charters and conventions, because they favour foreigners rights over our own. If the UN love these refugees so much let them pay for them, instead of the struggling taxpayer. Sou : 22 Dec 2010 5:47:44pm Just a day or so back, there was an article in the news about a Fed Govt report saying that States were not investing enough in infrastructure to support a growing population. Yet it's the Fed Govt that has control of population policy, or should have. It's the one bringing in more than 150k people each year (mostly skilled workers) and it's the one paying baby bonuses, mandating parental leave and giving tax breaks to grow the population. (That's not including students, NZanders etc). If only governments had a plan instead of simply 'population projections'. Providing services and infrastructure to the growth corridors on the outskirts of major cities is a huge expense on top of maintenance costs in more settled areas. This raises vexed questions every time budgets are prepared by state and local governments and utilities. We don't have enough water, most land is already committed to housing, services, industry, farming, forestry or parkland. The only way to go is up, but many Australians don't like cramped living. In addition, there are too many cars, too much rubbish going to landfill, too much wear and tear

Really, it's a matter of personal taste, and one person's boring plastic container will be another person's wonder-system of kitchen organisation, and that's the reason these brands, such as Tupperware and Nutrimetics, have been around for so long. They're not for everyone, but their customers are loyal. There is an additional appealing side to these, and other reputable Direct Selling organisations that I hadn't really considered. Employment. They support women by offering them a work opportunity that may fit around other commitments, or be an opportunity for those without previous training or career experience. Most of these companies offer training courses, and women gain skills in the area they've chosen. As opposed to multinationals... you inglourious basterds I don't know that it's something I'd choose to do too often, particularly given the somewhat meagre stash of restraint I brought along in my back pocket on Nutrimetics night. It is, however, a great way to touch, feel and try new products in comfortable surroundings with friends, in a similar purchasing environment to online shopping (though with a little extra peer pressure). It's good to know that your purchase goes towards the income of your consultant though, rather than into the hands of a multinational chain (those bastards .

Marketing managersm Journalists all have conversations with the audiences they try to reach. And the audience tries to start conversations with brands and companies - sometimes even succeeding. Mainstream media, the web, blogs, PR professionals, everyone is part of the conversation :) I got the book from a friend, at just the right time. It was very helpful in figuring out how communication is changing in the information age. The origin is simple; Editors Gavin Heaton and Drew McLellan challenged bloggers around the world to contribute one page -- 400 words -- on the topic of the conversation. Over a 100 responded, and this book is the result. It is a stunning effort, and I recommend it warmly. I gave my first copy away and bought a couple more. Currently I have one left. I cherish it. This book was written collaboratively by 103 authors scattered all over the world. It provides a wealth and variety of insights about conversational marketing (social media) from an incredible breadth of perspectives. Lots of gems here. I think it's the 103 different views that I find most valuable. All the authors are writing with the same basic ideas in mind, yet their own experiences and personalities create stories and lessons that approach the subject in a different way.

to "outweigh" this benefit, we are led to conclude that the publishers are entitled to almost any privilege they request. Since the idea of "striking a balance" between publishers and readers denies the readers the primacy they are entitled to, we must reject it. Balancing against what? When the government buys something for the public, it acts on behalf of the public; its responsibility is to obtain the best possible deal -- best for the public, not for the other party in the agreement. For example, when signing contracts with construction companies to build highways, the government aims to spend as little as possible of the public's money. Government agencies use competitive bidding to push the price down. As a practical matter, the price cannot be zero, because contractors will not bid that low. Although not entitled to special consideration, they have the usual rights of citizens in a free society, including the right to refuse disadvantageous contracts; even the lowest bid will be high enough for some contractor to make money. So there is indeed a balance, of a kind. But it is not a deliberate balancing of two interests each with claim to special consideration. It is a balance between a public goal and market forces. The government tries to obtain for the taxpaying motorists the best deal they can get in the context of a free society and a free market.

IT IS MANIC BEHAVIOR. He is only pursuing such a strategy because the Dems control both t he House and Senate, but to date everything he has pursued has failed. A leader is not someone who just spends money on many types of ideas (TARP, TALF, PIIP) hoping something sticks so he can say his is right, a leader is someone who is decisive. WE all have serious issues in this country and it is not the time to now talk about Health Care; where are the jobs he promised? Where is the "green economy"?

Eastern and Central Europe and the economic dependence it implies. It also has an interest in maintaining a high price for gas in Europe in general since it is the largest single supplier. This is not a hot war, there are no shootings and nobody dies. Russia does not seem to attempt to stop shale gas explorations in the United States, and even if it did try, it would be hopeless. The United States does not try to influence Russia's energy policy, and even if it did try, it would be hopeless. So this new Cold War, as the old one, is over countries in the middle, countries like Germany, the Czech Republic, and Bulgaria. The conflict is not over which type of regime these countries have, but over how dependent they are on Russian energy supply. The more dependent they are, the less able they will be to defy or challenge Russian interests. Energy independence requires diversification of sources. The most obviously safe and by definition independent energy source is domestic. Here is where shale gas comes into play. Almost all the countries in Europe have some shale gas that may be commercially exploitable, some more and some less. We will know the quantities more precisely only once they start drilling. The other issues are the pipelines and LNG. Each side to this new Cold War wants its pipes to be independent of the control of the other. LNG terminals may allow Europe to buy its gas from outside

Do you think it's the normal thing to go into a romantic relationship with a love/ deep attachment for the other person, or is it more normal to go into it with mainly physical attraction and shared interests and see what sort of feelings grow over time? I know it sounds a bit childish, but I had this short relationship with a really amazing girl, and I knew as soon as I met her that I was in love with her, so I went into the relationship with a high level of attachment, but I don't really know if that's normal as it was the first relationship I'd had. I'd always thought it's normal to go into it like that, but some people I've spoken to say that the sort of thing I experienced isn't normal and that feelings like I had usually develop over time. How are you convinced it was love if it was the only one you've had and didn't last very long? I personally don't believe anyone goes into a relationship with that deep of an attachment. Sure, there's always going to be some attachment because otherwise they wouldn't have started in the first place, but to call that attachment love is, in my opinion, overzealous at best.

We will only offer the very highest quality products to ensure you stay one step ahead Call Logging & Recording Call Logging As the saying goes 'You can't manage what you can't measure'. This is as true in telecoms as any other area of your business. The ability to analyse incoming and outgoing calls though the use of customisable reports will provide your company with invaluable information. When sales in a certain area fall, your call reports will show you how many calls from this area you have had and you can amend your marketing accordingly. Following a marketing campaign in a specific area it would be great to be able to measure sales against response. All this is only possible through effective monitoring and measurement of call traffic. Call logging can also be used internally to check on the number of calls an individual is making and where they are making those calls. For hotels and guest houses as well as companies who have more than one company operating from the phone system, call logging can produce individual bills, saving time and money. Call Recording Call recording can also be a critical component within your organisation. It is a powerful, useful, and an integral tool for many businesses when it comes to improving customer service, providing proof of calls, and meeting legal requirements. Increased liability in today's business world means that it is important to keep meticulous records and to make sure that employees are held accountable. Call recording

I believe there are more men in the field right now, but I think that with most things, women are catching up pretty fast! Have You Ever Experienced Any Negativity or Sexism Being in This Industry? For me no, I have always been received well and with respect. I try only communicating with people whom I respect and they in turn respect me.

I do not pretend to understand the moral universe; the arc is a long one, my eye reaches but little ways; I cannot calculate the curve and complete the figure by the experience of sight; I can divine it by conscience.

engaged rebels in a gun battle. The government said Monday troops were attempting to locate the captives, not launch a rescue. ?They were tortured by more than a decade of captivity and then murdered,? President Juan Manuel Santos said after the killings became public. ?It's an atrocious crime.? Erazo eventually hid in a tree trunk, listening as the soldiers fought his captors. He crawled out when he heard chain-saws clearing trees for helicopters to land. His companions had been pushed face down and shot in the back of the head, said a captured rebel. Another was shot twice in the back as he tried to escape. The FARC, which still hold 11 military captives, had marched them through the jungle for weeks, Erazo said. ?Sometimes they were awfu, at other times they were in a good mood and freed us from the chains. Sometimes we were chained from six at night until six in the morning,? he told Colombia's Caracol radio station. Santos said last week Colombia was nearing the final phase of nearly five decades of war and that he would be willing to talk peace if the FARC were serious and put down their weapons. The rebels, considered a terrorist group by the United States and Europe, have refused. The FARC, which calls itself ?the people's army? defending peasant rights, has battled about a dozen administrations since first appearing in 1964, when its founder Manuel Marulanda and 48 rebels fought off thousands of troops in jungle hide-outs.

Why Do Videogames Cost So Much In Australia? As a general rule there are three things that Australian video game publishers will not talk about: rumour, speculation and the price of games in the Australian marketplace. But at the moment the pricing issue is at the top of the list -- a topic publishers avoid like the plague. Even those that have the leeway to approach the debate, like Sony's Michael Ephraim, refuse to be drawn on the specifics. But as exchange rates continue to trend in Australia's favour, with the Aussie dollar now above parity compared to its US counterpart, importing from overseas is slowly becoming a more cost effective way of purchasing videogames -- and as it becomes more prevalent, local pricing will eventually become an unavoidable issue for Australian publishers. Sooner or later they'll have to address it, or face the consequences of being forced out of their own market. Parallel Lines "This is an interesting issue," said Dr Mark Melatos, Senior Lecturer at the University of Sydney. At a loss with the dead silence from video game publishers on the issue, we contacted Mark, a PhD in economics, for comment on the reasons why videogames cost almost twice as much here as they do in the US, despite currency parity. Mark's area of expertise is international trade policy and theory, so we figured he might know a thing or two -- turns out he does. Apparently the boogie man may be a thing called 'parallel import

Yeah I know car specs say 560 amps (but that is the minimum) I picked up a classic car out of an orchard(and it sat for 5 years) Once I got damages fixed from vandals, and changed the oil; then poured a 1/4 cup of gas down the carburator, she fired right up and idled like it had just been shut off recently. 1955 Chev with early V8 engine. So battery, is the first thing to age out. In the stores the batteries on the shelves are generally without acid in them. That is added after you purchase the battery and it is given a quick charge that gives it about 75% charge. Once in the car and you have been driving for a bit it moves up to 100% as the alternator is a slower deep charge. Other Answers (3) There is nothing worse for a car then for it to sit idle and rot away. Cars were built to drive. When they don't drive, none of the fluids circulate. You get rust internally, parts start to corrode, plastic bits dry up and crack. It's really not pretty. You would have to replace all the belts and hoses, spark plugs, all the fluids, brakes, etc. After that it will probably work fine. It probably need a new battery and the air in the tires is low. In fact the tires might be bad by now

This is SaaS - Software as s Service - so you can use it only while servers are up. If you wont - setup your own server and use it forever . Otherwise, every server must be purchased/rented. The rent is cost $110/month. Why so much? It's because server is abuse-safe, that means it wont shut down upon first Apple (or anybody else) request. 2. In-App Purchases Index was made for developers, not for you , to help them to protect their applications. 3. I'm not interested in to continue development of iOS service (and it can not be made on iOS 6 due to EV-certificates), because I currently focused on Android .

I'll be the first to admit that I'm not the world's greatest when it comes to either list building or even generating back-end sales from the few subscribers I have. Yet, so many marketers praise the value of 'the list' that, apparently, the money rainbow ends smack bang in the middle of it. I'll also admit that I'm on peoples' lists and yes, sometimes, they are blessed with a repeat sale from my good self so I guess there must be some truth in it or at least it's worth giving it some more effort. Combine this new enthusiasm for list-building and my propensity for 'investing' in new info products and you've got yourself someone who can't refuse a course aimed specifically at those with smaller lists and a bargain price point or less than $10.

Education Opinions Does the amount of time a child spends playing computer or video games affect his or her social development? Sure Does! I grew up in a bad situation. My dad was addicted to methamphetamine and my mother wanted to advance her life in another state. Since my father had custody, of course I was forced to stay with him. During this very horrible time, i found a video game that I really liked (Diablo II). Every morning before school I would play it until the very last minute before I had to leave. While at school, I would often think about it. After school the first thing i would do is my homework (self taught obedience). My dad would always be in his room with the door closed for days on end. After homework, I would immediately go to playing my game. During this period of time, I had no friends and got made fun of a lot. My security was in the game. Since it was an online game, I could be another person, or rather be who I actually was while suppressing the person I am in real life. Me and my brother were both playing Diablo II at this time. We would set time limits of 1 hour a piece and alternate between each other until I decided it was bed time (10 PM).

Given the complex nature of the spiral configuration it is perhaps somewhat surprising to find it carefully delineated on rock art in regions as widely scattered as Nicaragua, Indonesia and Italy - natural growth and universal solar aspects notwithstanding. Moreover, the same enigmatic symbol is also incorporated on the Plains of Nazca in Peru and precisely illuminated by rays of sunlight at a site high up on Fajada Butte at the entrance to Chaco Canyon (New Mexico) in the United States. Although no longer functional (see "Changing Patterns at Chaco Canyon", National Geographic Magazine , June 1990), as shown in the composite graphic below the delineation of the Equinoxes and Solstices at this Anasazi Solar Observatory is most impressive. Fig. 1. The Solar Phenomena displayed at Fajada Butte The site itself is a relatively recent discovery as Thomas Y. Canby 1 explains in an article in the June 1990 National Geographic Magazine: "The spiral and the sunlight pattern were discovered in 1977 by Anna Sofaer, a Washington D.C., artist. On the shortest day of the year, she found later, two vertical beams of light would bracket the spiral. The Anasazi, Sofaer believes, were demonstrating a sophisticated use of astronomy". The arrangement apparently once delineated both pairs of Solstices and Equinoxes with great precision, employing a double set of spirals as an integral part of the scheme. Considered the work of the Anasazi (700 - 1600 BCE, Krupp 1983:152), it has apparently deteriorated in recent times, but in working order it

There are many definitions. In ecological terms, rainforests have been defined as "multi-storied closed, broad leaved forest vegetation with a continuous tree canopy of variable height and with characteristic diversity of species and life forms" . Tropical rainforests in particular possess an astonishing array of flora and fauna. In fact, at least half of the Earth's species are found in rainforests. Rainforests have been called the womb of life because they are home to 50-90% of the species on Earth. Worldwide, several hundred million forest-dwelling people live in or depend on rainforests. Many of the world?s important food crops and domestic animals have been developed from rainforest species. Human beings depend on rainforests in numerous ways, but it would be wrong to suggest that they should be preserved purely so that they can be exploited by humans. 1.1 Biodiversity Because of tropical deforestation, it has been estimated that at least 40 species are perishing every day. This is a rate hundreds of times faster than at any period in recent geological time. Tropical forests cover only 12 per cent of the land area of the Earth, yet they are home to between 50 and 90 per cent of the world's species. They contain 90% of non-human primates, 40% of all birds of prey and 80% of the world's insects and over 60% of all known plants. Because one species in a tropical forest may be found in a small area and nowhere else, the destruction of relatively small areas of

and we provided the consultant with a lot of information about how APNIC works. The consultant has at this stage provided us with a draft report identifying where they think there are gaps between the level of insurance that we have and the types of risks that occur in our environment. I think, more importantly, now that we have done this work around developing a risk register, it's an ongoing risk management program for us. So each year we can review that risk register and advise the EC of where we see any changes required in relation to insurance and risk management. Operational planning. Paul talked about the operational planning process. What I'm talking about here is the detailed implementation of that. That's a responsibility of my team. 2011 is the year where we go through the full planning process again, so it starts almost immediately after this meeting. We take the findings from the last member survey, we take direction from the EC strategy, we do a lot of detailed analysis of our external environment and we do very complex analysis of our internal operational environment too. So we engage all our staff to really find out what their views are on the organization, how we can do things better and where we need to enact changes as part of the planning process. All that work helps us develop our activity plan for 2012. The 2012 operational plan sets the priorities for the Secretariat. One of the things we

Treasury secs serve to 'offset operating factors' at the fed and don't alter net financial assets (monetary aggregate). This is a matter of accounting, an identity. read 'soft currency economics' Japan had the world's largest 'quantitative easing' policy that resulted in maybe 30T yen in excess reserves which did nothing for lending or the economy or in any way alter the price level or weaken the currency. All fed research shows QE does nothing apart from adjusting the term structure of rate including the latest paper by Seth Carpenter on this website. There is no quantity channel. tsy secs do alter the term structure of rates. The question is whether the term structure of rates alters the level of the currency.
