Australian Story Life After Puberty - Transcript PROGRAM TRANSCRIPT: Monday, 24 September , 2012 CLAUDIA KARVAN, PRESENTER: Hi, I?m Claudia Karvan, currently appearing in the new TV series Puberty Blues. When that classic Australian movie came out 30 years ago, parents were mortified, but a generation of kids loved it. The two teenage girls who starred in Puberty Blues looked set for big careers on screen. Tonight?s program reveals the bittersweet story of Nell Schofield and her co-star, Jad Capelja. NELL SCHOFIELD: I?d like to show Miles the beach where Jad and I walked up the sand all those years ago. Where she was happy, where she was optimistic about life. I?d love to tell Miles that his mother was just this wonderful person, this giggly, free-spirited, happy, joyous young woman. He might not have known her like that. MILES MUECKE, SON OF JAD CAPELJA: I definitely wish I could have seen her back then when she was young and sort fresh and healthy and vibrant and see what she was like, because I sort of think when I was 16 and I think, could I have done that? Or could I have handled that stress? I think I?d be very proud because I don?t think I could do the same thing at that age. She was very mature for her age, definitely. NELL SCHOFIELD: I?d like to show him some of the locations maybe where we shot the film. It?s about 32 years since we made the film, and

for years after the occupation started. Libya produces more electricity, natural gas and oil than it needs. Water is scarcer but the Great Manmade River project and desalinisation research projects seem to meet the current demand. Consequently, in contrast to Iraq, it can be expected that the population will still have access to essential goods and services, which will mitigate popular discontent and contribute to the security and stability of the country, and buttress the legitimacy of the transitional authority in charge of the political revamping of Libya. Finally, similarly to Iraq, the Libyan civil society is so to speak inexistent. Like Saddam Hussein, Gaddafi's fist smashed any attempts at contradicting his regime, leaving no room for civil society organisations to blossom. However, after the Ba'ath regime's fall, Iraq witnessed the birth and development of a myriad of civil society organisations, which started to counter-balance the power of the Iraqi state, and play its watchdog role. Recent developments in Iraq have shown that sectarianism has taken its toll on the civil society but it did not manage to suppress its voice. With a young, essentially urban, and highly literate population, Libya has the potential to witness similar developments and benefit fairly quickly of the presence of a very active and buoyant civil society, without doubts, with the full backing of Western democracy promotion agencies. Taken together, if the UN and the future Libyan political class, with the full support of the West, manages to work on and secure consistency of

Reforming incapacity benefit will not be easy -- but it is crucial '500,000 to lose sick pay as welfare reforms bite'. Those words boom from the front-page of the Times this morning -- and they're based on an article by Iain Duncan Smith () in which he admits that some 23 percent of the country's 2.1 million Incapacity Benefit claimants could be found fit for work. This, it is said, should save the Exchequer some 4 billion. The numbers are striking enough, but the policy behind them shouldn't be surprising at all. Even the last Labour government intended to "http://www.spectator.co.uk/coffeehouse/\\... a political deceit that they had nurtured, but which was birthed during the Thatcher years: the artificial swelling of the sickness rolls. And the coalition has long planned to put rocket boosters under that process. Provisional figures, released in July, even suggested that 40 percent of IB claimants could be shifted back into the labour market. This is not a cruel process. It may involve more stringent medical tests, but the aim is not to shuffle the genuinely ill into jobs that they cannot perform. Rather, in IDS's words, this is a plan to reinvigorate the "lost potential of so many people who have been dumped to languish at the bottom end of society". And when the number of under-25s claming IB has risen by 52 percent since 1997, it's clear that there is plenty of lost potential to go around. For now, I imagine the public are on side

Related: Last week, Dancing With the Stars fans were shocked to learn that host Brooke Burke-Charvet is battling thyroid cancer . But the fans weren't the only ones surprised by this sad news — the Season 15 All-Stars cast was taken aback as well. Celebuzz spoke to Season 15 partners Apolo Anton Ohno and Karina Smirnoff about the news in a video interview where they convey their distress and disbelief. "She's so sweet, so beautiful, so kind, so supportive to all of us," Karina gushes. "And she's so fit," Apolo adds. "Like you never expect — you know, I mean, cancer affects everybody. It's got no — it doesn't matter. But it's sad." They went on to say Brooke has been looking great on set. "She looks amazing, her energy's amazing," Apolo explains. They both note that there's not much they can do, they want to be there for Brooke in whatever way they can. "More than anything we want to be the smile for her, the laughter," Karina says. "Be that support system for Brooke." Check out the full interview below.

Then of course we now have the French election - also going to be against an 'austerity' drive - it was also the French who alongside Germany breached borrowing limits - so not much hope of anything in France helping the debt laden countries of the Eurozone. Well 8 weeks till my holidays, and at the moment the euro rate is around ?1.2125 to the pound Some posters on holiday forums, are in the thinking of, that come July/Aug, we could see a likely rate of ?1.28 - ?1.30+ to the pound, all being well this would be good for us uk tourist going away on holiday to europe And the main bulk of my currency exchange, Im holding it back until July, no point buy currency now at 1.21, when in july it might be ?1.25 - ?1.30 , and this gives me an extra ?150 - ?220 How much spending money are you taking ?

was 35 years old) and accepting of his situation. The 1920s cloak of secrecy was not a neccessity in the 21st century - indeed, the knowledge has brought a form of bonding between his descendents and a certain satisfaction in knowing how and why he died so young. So, to turn the popular journalistic saying around a bit: "Publish and be thanked!" I was interested, if a little sad, to discover that my great-great grandpa actually died before my great-grandfather was born, leaving my great-great-grandmother with two small boys to bring up on her own. I had heard he was knocked down by a horse and carriage in Lincoln High Street. My great-grandfather went on to study theology as a mature student at Oxford University and to become a vicar, moving to Northumberland where my granny grew up. It made me impressed by the strong women in our family, and I found it quite inspiring. So, the further ago these tragedies happened, the less shocking and sad they will be, and the more we'll tend to think about what effect they had on the following generations. We started tracing our family history about eighteen months ago. It's so interesting and very addictive. On the Paternal side we've gone back to 1781, and on the Maternal side back to 1841. The only 'shocking' thing we discovered was when two second cousins married, and both families disowned them !!! tell all, secrets are dangerous and after all the truth can be a

adopted in the U.S. -- is not new. The term of art used to describe it is "policy laundering." How the USTR's attempts on limitations and exceptions are half hearted Copyright limitations and exceptions can correct some of these imbalances between rights of owners and users of copyrighted works. That is why it was so significant when the US Trade Representative (USTR) recently announced that it would include provisions on limitations and exceptions within the TPP. Some of these provisions leaked recently. However, if what was leaked is the entirety of the US proposal, it does disappointingly little to protect users' rights. Well, since everyone but country negotiators and industry "advisors" have been kept in the dark, it's hard to say. But Public Knowledge has been tracking international IP issues for a number of years and a draft text was leaked in February 2011, so we can make an educated guess about what might be in the TPP's IP chapter.

The recession we have to have Forget dodging bullets, soft landings and spending our way to economic safety. The time has come for recession. Yep, the only way we and the rest of the world are going to get through this financial mess intact is by biting the bullet, rather than dodging it. A thorough cleanout of the useless, the unsalvageable businesses that have been sucking on our teats all their lives (is that a car manufacturers I just saw?) is the true way to salvation. Why governments, and by extension you and me, are contiuing to bail out hopeless, failed businesses is beyond me. At least the US Congress is playing hardball with the Dopes of Detroit (though how much longer that will last, I don't know. I have a sneaky suspicion that vested interests will once again prevail). Our government decided to give them $6 billion. This most unprofitable of industries (well, maybe airlines excepted) has had a direct line to taxpayer funds for decades, all in the name of "protecting jobs". All the while destroying wealth. They're happy to destroy those jobs too if their bottom lines are affected in the occasional good time they experience. But they don't give their subsidies back. Teetering financial institutions should go the same way and be allowed to fall over the cliff. Allowing them to survive will mean only their management prosper in the long run. The ludicrous call by politicians for recipients of the $10.4 billion "economic stimulus" package

Commission in this field. He has, however, strongly opposed an increase of the EU budget or debt mutualisation among the eurozone countries. Although Katainen has enjoyed the full support of his National Coalition Party, the main coalition partner (the Social Democratic Party) has adopted a lower profile on EU policy, and cabinet members have been unwilling to formulate comprehensive Finnish positions on the wider debate about the euro that was launched by the European Council. The second dimension follows on from this. Traditionally, Finland has been uneasy with any potential split in the EU's institutional or treaty framework. But if such a deepening of economic and fiscal cooperation within the eurozone requires a split, the government would clearly strive to keep Finland in the 'inner core'. The Eurosceptic opposition takes a more negative view of the potential for rescuing the situation. The True Finns argue that European Monetary Union and the common currency were a mistake from the beginning, as they were based on an impossible convergence between very different types of economies. They say the euro can only survive through major transfers of income and debt mutualisation, and will probably collapse through its own internal contradictions. The Centre Party is less pessimistic, but also uses blunt language when analysing the fundamental economic problems that lie behind the crisis in the eurozone periphery. The position of the True Finns was clarified when they attacked Prime Minister Katainen over the conditions of the Spanish rescue package in June 2012. Katainen forced

Sunday, 21 October 2012 A guide to getting smooth skin all over the body A guide to getting smooth skin all over the body If you struggle with rough or dry skin, trying to make it smooth can seem like a never ending battle. During the winter, skin that is susceptible to becoming dry or rough can be even more problematic, as the combination of cold weather and artificial heat from the central heating can dry out our skin. The good news is that with a few simply tricks and tips we can all be on our way to super smooth, soft and silky skin. Implement a regular skin care routine It is important that we implement a regular skin care routine both on our faces and our bodies. This body care routine should include: Washing your skin with a gentle cleanser, such as one of Johnson's range of cleansers for the face and body, many of which have been tailored to cater for dry skin and give it the additional moisture that it desperately needs. Gentle cleansers will help remove any dead skin cells that can often cause flakiness and dryness, making the skin itchy and sore. Moisturising the skin with a thick and heavy moisturiser once in the morning and once at night on the face as well as the body will help to hydrate the skin and seal in some of the lost moisture. Most body care advice and tips will highlight the importance of drinking plenty

Team Building Nashville -- Republic Finance, Gaylord Opryland Republic Finance enlisted the help of Song Division to engage, entertain and bond their employees from all over the US at the famed Gaylord Opryland in Nashville, Tennessee. Song Division swooped in with a team that has played with everyone from Prince to the B-52?s and over the course of an afternoon and evening they used the universal power of music to inspire and motivate Republic Finance's team of 150 people. The afternoon session started with 4 teams paired with facilitators from the band where each group had an hour to write their own song based on the themes and objectives of the three day conference. Lots of work and lots of laughs led to the Battle of the Bands, where each group got to take the stage and perform their song backed by the Song Division band! Song Division capped off the night as the house band for the Gala Awards program and sent everyone out on high spirits after two party sets of dance floor filling entertainment, creating a Nashville tinged rock & roll theme throughout the entire day.

as powerful as any other kind of art. Just different roles in terms of immediacy and effect.) In the spirit of resource-sharing, here are a few of the quotations, some of which don't appear in the print issue: I don't think art can change the world. There are moments in history -- in the 1930s and the 1920s and since -- where very direct address of general social problems by artists has had something of an effect. It's hard to say what it was or how to quantify it, but it's undeniable they spoke for the times and people knew it. There are other times when merely the presence of a voice of dissent or a kind of questioning in public for which art is also a vehicle can do a lot. I'm also of the view that sometimes people who should be socially active take refuge in art and make art as an alternative to being involved in the sort of nuts and bolts and oftentimes boring business of organizing and voting and demonstrating. I think we've been through a period where a lot of people have very sophisticated political ideas based on a whole series of postmodern thinkers but actually they do almost nothing, and they have avoided the full implications of having a political understanding of the world by having such a good rap. I don't know how many students I've spoken to, taught, and dealt with who can tell you all about the crisis of late

Voluntarism claims that the attitudes of the gods make things pious, whereas naturalism claims that something's piety is part of its nature, which the gods' attitudes recognize and track. Socrates thinks that reflection will show us that we tacitly accept naturalism. What it is for something to be god-beloved is simply for it to be loved by the gods. But what makes the gods take this attitude toward anything must be some other feature of the thing. The gods love pious things, because they are pious. This seems especially plausible if we bear in mind that Socrates and Euthyphro think that piety is part of justice. One loves just things, because they are just, and one recognizes them to be just. If so, the god-beloved character of pious things depends on their being pious, not vice versa. Euthyphro accepts naturalism, and Socrates concludes that Euthyphro's claim fails as a definition, because it states a symptom or correlate, rather than the cause or essence, of piety. Despite superficial differences, Socrates' concern is closely related to ours. We can adapt the Euthyphro Problem to our discussion of whether morality requires a religious foundation by considering the following conditional formulation of the doctrine of divine command. Divine Command : If God exists, x is good or right if and only if God approves of x. Divine command, like Euthyphro's definition of piety, admits of both voluntarist and naturalist interpretations, and the debate between them has a distinguished history. Voluntarism captures the metaphysical dependence

during the summer months. Fantail, silvereye, grey warbler, shining cuckoo and a few South Island tomtits are commonly seen and heard in the bush. The New Zealand wood pigeon (kukupa or kereru) is the largest berry-eating bird in New Zealand and an important seed-disperser for many native plants. The wood pigeon can often be seen when walking through the bush areas. The most common birds seen on the Port Hills are introduced, such as the blackbird, chaffinch and thrush. A large range of native invertebrates occupy the Port Hills bush and grass lands areas, including the native copper butterfly (Lycaena salustius). Lizards native to the Port Hills include gecko and skink species. Plant life The contrasting sheltered valleys and exposed windswept hillsides provide a range of growing conditions for a wide variety of plants. Local endemic plants which are found only or mainly on Banks Peninsula (and nowhere else in the world) include the Banks Peninsula hebe ( Hebe strictissima ), the Banks Peninsula blue tussock ( Poa colensoi ) and the rare and endangered 'Lyttelton forgetmenot' ( Myosotis australis var. lytteltonensis ). The Port Hills are also home to rare ferns. Remnant pockets of podocarp forest shelter 500-600 year old matai, totara and kahikatea trees and regenerating seedlings. A diverse range of fruiting and flowering hardwood species including kowhai, lacebark, ribbonwood, mahoe, five finger, cabbage tree, kanuka, lancewood, fuchsia, and many shrub species, thrive in these remnants.

Jun 2012 8:10:19am Run Rabbitt, it doesn't make the situation any better, but I think we do have to acknowledge that most journalists are just doing the job they get paid to do. It's not the journalists themselves that are the problem, it's the organisations and it's the market. Basically, if they won't tow the company line, they'll be replaced by somebody who will. I've no doubt that, if journos at The Australian weren't getting their riding instructions from Rupert Murdoch via Chris Mitchell they might actually provide quality journalism that is fair and balanced. However, there is no sustainable market for fair and balanced journalism (Murdoch's most fair & balanced newspaper - The Times (UK) - is losing money). I think Murdoch understands this, and that's why his journalists are now increasingly being asked to play to a niche market (the disengaged voter to the rabid right). It is no longer financially viable for newspapers to simply deliver readers to advertisers.

you can and cannot eat). If you are a student then you can get the all-you-can eat Feast Deal for $10 instead of the usual $12.90. The Feast Deal includes rice, daily special mixed vegetable curry, split mung dahl, koftas with fresh tomato and herb chutney, a pappadam, fresh garden salad, halava with custard (unless you tell them you are vegan and then they give you a vegan alternative) and home made ginger & mint lemonade. And you just keep going back for more and more until you've had enough! If you don't want to have the Feast Deal you can also buy smaller portions of each of the daily specials or order off the menu. It's yummy food, great value and lovely service. Kitchen Sanitarium Cafe Eagle Street, City This was a new Brisbane experience for me. It was open when I used to live in Brisbane but due to the fact that it is only open for breakfast and lunch, and it's in the middle of the city, I just never made the effort to visit before. Which was stupid. Because this cafe is awesome. It's a totally vegetarian cafe with lots of vegan options available on the lunch menu. If the cafe becomes a regular spot for you there are daily specials to break up the monotony of having the same thing every visit. However, I dn't think that this will be a problem; I had the Spiced Pumpkin Wrap on my visit and couldn't believe how

each denomination, including the Bank of issue for $500-$10,000 notes. The Richmond Reserve Bank will credit the Treasury's General Account for the total and debit notes outstanding. The Federal Reserve Banks are responsible for reimbursement to the Treasury for retirement of Federal Reserve currency. Each quarter the Treasury forwards to the Board a voucher, indicating the actual cost for services performed relative to the retirement of Federal Reserve currency during the previous quarter. Board staff calculates the pro rata amount of each Reserve Bank's assessment based on the Bank's share of the number of notes comprising the System's net liability for Federal Reserve notes outstanding on December 31 of the previous year. Reserve Bank assessment entries will be processed via Same Day Settlement by the Richmond Reserve Bank according to information reported on to the Board." But again, the cash doesn't go into the Treasury's cash vault, so I think that Warren's point holds, which is being asserted against claims like the president's that the government is "going bankrupt" or "running out of money."

You will need to show evidence to the department of the boarding or homestay fees as separate from the tuition fees. Example: A contract or an authorised receipt of payment from your education provider. Note: Only formal boarding or homestay arrangements will be accepted by the department. Prepayment of private boarding or homestay arrangements or rent will not be deducted from the living cost requirement.

industry, so it's not automatically a competitive disadvantage. (2) Thought experiment: imagine China as a black box with inputs and outputs. From the point of view of China, sending us useful goods (which we'll use up and then dump in our landfills) is a lot like just taking those goods and dumping them in the ocean. As far as China is concerned, nothing would be very different if all the ships just sank before they arrived here. (3) It's a strange war, though: you don't have to worry about them invading us if they win. What would they steal? Our consumers? My friend from high school and one-time employer, David Slik, made a presentation about the company he founded and still works for. Bycast makes high-end clustered "cloud" storage systems that are apparently so reliable that some of their enterprise customers have stopped making backups altogether... after thoroughly testing Bycast's fault recovery mechanisms, of course. Call me crazy, but I've never really seen the point of so-called "parser generators" and "lexical analyzer generators" in real life. Almost any file has syntax that's so simple, it's easy to just parse it yourself. And languages that are more complicated or have tight parser performance requirements - like C++ compilers or Ruby interpreters - tend to have hand-rolled parsers because the automatic parser generators can't do it. So who benefits from automatic parser generators? I don't know. I feel like I'm missing something. This feeling came up again the other day when I

Pop it in your mouth, close your eyes & pretend you're relaxing on the Italian rivera. Blissful. If you can bring yourself back to reality, put a couple tablespoons onto your pizza. 65 comments: It looks great! I did pizza making in Sicily last month and they actually mix the ingredients on the table - no bowls or wooden spoons. I honestly thought I was the only one that put pesto on pizza! The taste is brilliant and I found out that the Italians love it on Margarita pizza because it makes the colours of the Italian flag (the dough, tomato and basil)! OK, this is a really long comment, I'll stop now :) Joelle xoxo If you are ever in Las Vegas, stop by a Metro Pizza and ask for the Old New York. Sure you can add toppings but really why would you.

What the heck is ikebana . "Oh, you plan cactus. Did anyone ever get hurt because of it?" you regret this sentence as soon as you release it from your mouth. "No, I always be careful around it and make sure my guests take precaution around my cactus," he answer with a little bit anger. Unlike you, he could not hide his emotion well. But he try to be friendly with you again and ask you, "What about you? What is your hobby?" "I play guitar," you state your hobby as the president candidate gives victory speech in presidential election. "I don't listen to them," you say with a little bit feeling of insulted. That kind of music is for low intelligence listeners. "I play classical guitar." In your mind, there is a visual of John Lennon and Paul McCartney, your idols. "Classical guitar? You mean you play guitar which is very very old?" your friend looks innocent as he gives this stupid remark. You face palm. The friendship between both you stops right there.

But for networks and businesses as well as single users, the UAC is just simply ridiculous. Businesses probably already have filters and good network security programs that they've paid thousands of dollars for. So why would they need this crappy version of security that limits everything when they already have a $20,000 network security program as well as security hardware for their network. The point is that they don't. Also, if you run a LAN in your home, one would think that the computers on the network would be run by people smart enough to use a computer on their own without having to be constantly pestered by the UAC. If there is a family using a network of Vista-enabled PCs, one would think that the parents would only give the children a computer of their own if they were smart enough and responsible enough to handle a computer and not ruin the files or software. Surely the parents know that, and they should teach their children that as well. In my personal experience with Windows Vista, I have to say that it's basically the worst operating system I have ever seen in my life. I want Mac OS10 Tiger, Windows XP Professional, or Fedora Core Linux instead. These operating systems work well and trust the users to do the right thing with their own security. After all, would a person use a computer and not have ANY idea what they are doing with the computer? No, I think not.

the most of our current financial situation. Though lets face it if I had access to a crystal ball I wouldn't look much further than next week's lotto numbers Justine Davies Tue 04 Sep 12 (11:15am) Low CPI so wages are increasing generally about 4%pa, Longer Loan terms than 30 to 40 years ago, standard loan is now 30 years (if we start fulltime work at 18 and retire at 65 our working life is 47 years), Compared to 30 to 40 years ago there are many more women in the workplace, not that there's anything wrong with that, it just means you now need 2 incomes to buy a house, without the 2nd income (on average) it's a major struggle even saving a deposit. We are about to invest in property (won't make knee jerk decisions to sell, we're in for the long haul) and we both have 30 years (approx) till retirement so we can ride the inevitable roller coaster. Sell them at retirement and live off the proceeds. This is only possible if property does grow over time, I don't doubt this at all, I'm just sceptical about the rate of growth given the major changes in the past 30 to 40 years and the effect that will have in the future. (i believe polygamy is illegal so limited to 2 incomes and loan terms surely can't go longer than they are now, that helped prop up the growth rates so far but where to from here)

have said, we will not have the data that we need to move on unless we try to do what the ISG findings point towards: using the hard boundaries, using the wider area and getting on and doing it. I have heard some hon. Members say that the coalition Government have cut spending on vaccination. Actually, since 1994, just over 40 million has been invested; over the next four years, the Government are planning to invest over 15 million. That means an acceleration of the effort towards vaccination. We still have problems with the tests. It is possible that the DIVA test will get us where we want to be, but we are still not there yet. The racticality of vaccination is another issue. We have talked about the practicality of a cull, but there are huge problems around vaccination. We would all like to get to a state where it is not necessary to carry out intervention of this sort in wildlife. We would all like farmers and others concerned about animal welfare issues to unite around something -- but we are not yet there. Effectively, we are saying, "Let's do nothing." On biosecurity measures, Kerry McCarthy , who, as she said, has looked a great deal at food policy, painted a bit of a picture of farmers who were completely lackadaisical and not at all interested in biosecurity. It is in their interests to be interested in biosecurity, as they are the ones who suffer in their businesses

like to try a Bull Snapper early on- his Animus seems like it will be useful to make my stuff tougher- but not sure whether to go for the Ironback Spitter, Swamp Horror or even another Wrastler as a second Heavy, any advice here guys? Am I right to think of Blindwater as kinda "Cryx-meets-Khador", which was my first impression (bearing in mind I have little practical knowledge of PP games!)? J. For extra beasties you deffinatly need a bullsnapper but an extra heavy is essential as wel. Two beast will get you in (big) problems in a hurry. Since you need them to leach fury. I recomend another wrastler and maby the angry turtle (iron back) later on( corrosion does wonders against light single wound infantry). As for the "Cryx meets Khador"part as for now the choise of moddels in blindwater is to limited to say anything in that respect. They're hardly as anoying as Cryx and dont come close to Khador in dammage output. They do love synergy so look for that in your list. And bloody B is a good 'lock to start getting used to them. The two wrastlers not only pack a real punch, they allow for some interesting throwing shenanigans. Zombified Posse is a real pain to deal with, your opponent either has to divert a substantial part of his force to get rid of them quickly, or he has to ignore and/or deal with them for the majority of the match.

area either so how exactly am i supposed to get one, i already signed up on several job seeking websites with no luck, what exactly am i supposed to do, most jobs even traineeships require that have at least a couple years experience so tell me how am i supposed to find a job with no money, no car, and no chances If it is really that bad you can do what I did and goto the local police station and ask for help. I didn't know anyone to call or what to do. I did this when I was kicked out with only the clothes on my back, covered in injuries from a drunken psychopath mother who like your mother got very aggressive when I started standing up for myself. They put me onto a social worker and helped me contact a friend who let me stay with them until I got myself together. The biggest problem was my mother decided to act normal and sane once anybody else got involved and painted the picture I was causing the problems. It's not going to be an easy time for you but there is help out there. Most of the time they will just try to resolve the problem and shove you back with your family but you have to be truthful and be prepared to say you refuse to return and that you don't want to be abused in drunken rages anymore.

He knows this week is the week where my partner moves out. We had arranged to meet prior to this, but when i tried to contact him i got no reply. I can't decide whether to call him tonight, i m now single (not because of him!) but also wondering has he not contacted me to give me space to sort this stuff out or has he lost interested.

If I had to guess, I'd say he saw a drunk, provocatively dressed girl, thought of her as a piece of dirt like some of you do, saw she was leaning against the train, and thought, well I have a bit of power here, I'll teach her a lesson and knock her on her arse. Either that or an "I don't give a **** what happens, it's her problem" sort of attitude. Either way it was an abuse of power, and this ruling from the courts seems to suggest that is what they believe happened too. I agree with alomst everything you say and glad you dont demand him coming back at a certain time. The only thing i dont agree with is the part i highlighed... teenages can get very drunk, expecailly girls on very little, couple of drinks even. The parents can not controll that in anyway when they are having fun at a party.. teenages will learn themselfs what is their limit. Yes, I know they do, but I think it would take more than a couple of drinks, even for a girl to get drunk. We've all been there, head spinning, feeling sick - trouble is, these days, youngsters think a night out isn't done justice unless they are so drunk they end up lying in the gutter. It's the extremes of drunkenness that worry me. It's far

are entirely in step with conservative dogma, and more often than not, out-of-step with established science. If Caruba occasionally had opinions contrary to conservative dogma, I'd be more inclined to believe he is an indenpendent thinker. With all due deference to the author, I assure you this is meant to be wholly complimentary, we offer the following analogy: Imagine, if you will, a young man in a penny arcade. He's had one too many Mountain Dews and the Whack-a-Mole game is stuck in the "On" position. The vermin keep popping up endlessly and the lad is only too happy to keep hammering them mercilessly. As we observe him, we are struck as much by his enthusiam as by his persistence. Now, imagine him a grown man. Give him a cudgel formed of his own wit and intelligence, and turn him loose on all of the nonsense that keeps popping up from the Left on topics like energy, the environment, animal rights, education, the UN, and Islamicism. Alan Caruba--one time PR man, lifelong resident of the great County of Essex in New Jersey, and now a prolific conservative columnist--is that man and this collection of essays his weapon. He's just as much fun to observe, if not quite as manic, as our caffeine-stoked kid, as he pounds away at liberal myths, mistakes, and outright lies, even though they just keep coming. Here, for instance, is a particulary appalling example of what he's up against, -ESSAY: Greens Attack US Military (Alan Caruba,

Morning Hypertension The early morning hypertension surge Morning hypertension is a condition characterized by high blood pressure in the morning and controlled levels throughout the day. Heart attacks and stroke usually occur in the morning because of morning hypertension. Treatment for morning hypertension differs from treatments for other types of high blood pressure. Morning hypertension is a condition characterized by high blood pressure in the morning and controlled levels throughout the rest of the day. Blood pressure is at its lowest during sleeping hours. Between 4:00AM and noon, the body releases certain hormones that boost energy and increase morning alertness, but this also results in a sharp increase in blood pressure. According to a study published by America's National Institutes of Health, if one's blood pressure is average throughout most of the day but there is a 20 mmHg difference in blood pressure between the morning and evening, morning hypertension is present. People most at risk of developing morning hypertension are those who already have hypertension, diabetes, smokers and heavy drinkers. The risks for morning hypertension are the same as any other variation of high blood pressure. It could result in stroke, heart attack, and kidney damage. Heart attacks and stroke are most likely to occur in the morning partly because of the risk posed by morning hypertension. Treatment for morning hypertension should differ than the treatment used for high blood pressure throughout the day. A study presented at the 14th European Society of Hypertension showed that some anti-hypertensive drugs

Remove all the right wing influence from it's board and all the right wing reporters from its ranks (starting with Uhlmann). Then it will have a hope of returning to its previous position as a quality unbiased broadcaster. jerrybrookman: AT: The Australian is already an unprofitable enterprise. If it was answerable only to the marketplace, as many advocate the ABC should be, The Australian would long ago have been dead and buried. Not that it's gonna trouble anyone doing Rupert's bidding, but The Australian is not speaking on behalf of a massive readership, their advocacy does not have the imprimatur of the "masses". And yet they still wield a level of influence disproportionate to their lowly standing. You have to wonder why Mark Scott and The Drum expended so much energy fending off the bleatings of such a trifling and petty outfit?

just hang around outside for two months, hanging out in my dad's hot tub at night to watch the stars. Just something about this time of year makes me happy and relaxed. At night in the hot tub has to be the best though, sitting with family, eating Melona and talking about how we didn't accomplish a darn thing. The biggest thing that I manage to accomplish all summer is walking to the car so my dad can drive to the beach. Summer is the best time of year for me... relaxation, sleep, perfect. The Crunch of Fall By Loneka Miller Leaves changing colour all around me, crisp cold air entering my lungs, the crunch of leaves under foot. This is truly one beautiful season. Traditionally at this time of year, I rake those fallen leaves into one massive pile, making sure no twigs, sticks or anything spiky is in the glorious mass. I take a running leap at it only to crush the multi-coloured leaves as I land. The crisp cool air brings us out wearing scarves, mittens, as well as tuques. This time of year is when I get my camera out the most taking pictures of the beautiful fall sunset, turning leaves, as well as the overall deep tones that Fall imprints on the environment. I find myself absorbed by the V shape the flocks of geese make as their flying south before winter approaches which leaves me feeling satisfied for the rest of the day. Over

Most of the great coaches in college basketball came from down here, below the Red Line. There are plenty of old friends in the national polls. Bill Self got his head coaching start at the Badlands Conference's very own Oral Roberts. Jay Wright got his current Villanova gig because he was so good leading Hofstra. There's Matt Painter at Purdue, another in the great line of Southern Ilinois graduates. And, of course, Michael William "Mike" Krzyzewski started his illustrious coaching career at his alma mater, the United States Military Academy. The hoops media perpetuates the idea that this ladder is somehow endlessly fascinating, some sort of stairway to basketball heaven. Being a "national writer"requires full coverage of the coaching carousel, hot rumors, and speculation. Who's going to be the next to make the big climb over the Line? How long will Fran McCaffery stay at Siena? And Brad Stevens... how long can Butler hold on to that guy? Will this be the summer Steve Donahue leaves Cornell behind and goes for the big money? He does have a lot of talent graduating, this would be the right time! The iron is hot! For every Self and Wright, there are a dozen who found the going rough when they made it to the Bigs.

with a fresh piece of paper and writing out some new goals can be the launch-pad you need to get motivated again to keep up with your exercise habit longer than simply the weeks and months leading up to summer. Another good option is to sit and chat with a good listener, discussing what you want and need to change in order to get motivated again. I don't exercise regularly all year because... I'm a creature of habit It can be hard to break bad habits. We can often feel that our existing habits are comfortable, and with the myriad of daily activities vying for our attention, change can seem too overwhelming to attempt. Many people adopt the destructive "all or nothing" mentality that can really limit any positive changes. "I'll get to the gym one day soon", or "I'll start on Monday", or "I'll start when the weather improves". It can be put off and put off, and that's when the 'desperation' kicks in -- when it's time to bare your body for summer -- rather than valuing yourself enough to continue to exercise all year round for your long-term health and well-being. Changing your body requires changing your habits. But in order to make it sustainable, it's important you don't try to suddenly changing everything at once (that's so hard to keep up!) Don't set yourself up for failure. Most sudden strict training regimes don't last. By starting small and simple, you are much more likely to succeed.

The metal bird starts to flex its wings and the whole vessel shakes: a low rumbling, like a million hungry stomachs, or the earth making bellows in frustration, we 'taxi' to the runway, speed frantically up the tarmac. My eyes feel pressed against the back of my skull, I hold onto the plastic rests so hard it feels like my hands will impress them like putty. Soon we are rising through the air, the metal bird flying away from parched aridity, away from my home, up into the blue. It is like we are a fish swimming through clear water, through nothing. I try to sleep but I can't. I have the 'window seat', which means I can see everything - but suddenly we are so high that all I can see is an ochre oneness, and once we get to the Med, all is highest clouds and sea. After several hours, a small voice trapped in a speaker says, 'We are now approaching Gatwick Airport, please return to your seats, return them to the upright postion and fasten your seatbelts. Thank you.' The man next to me fastens the belt around his waist so I do the same. Fifteen minutes later we are 'on the ground', but not in a messy fashion - we have 'landed'!

any responsible learning institution. Given the extremely difficult, emotionally charged and significant issues surrounding abortion at the embryo stage, which issues become even more difficult when dealing with a fetus, anyone suggesting what boils down to the murder of a newborn is doing it simply for the sake of making headlines with a published paper. You know it, the authors know it, we all know it. How pathetic you would find what basically boils down to tabloid trash posing as research an acceptable way to attract attention to the Journal of Medical Ethics. An attempt at stirring controversy for its own sake speaks so poorly of academia, and it does such a tremendous disservice to legitimate and innovative work/research. You criticize your critics, and yet you knew very well what kind of reactions you would get. If you are so inexperienced and naive as to claim innocence, you should not be in the position you are in. Anyway, I would like to remind you that the duty of academics and researchers is to educate, to contribute something positive and useful, with sensitivity and compassion, especially when it comes to the incredibly difficult issues that women, parents, and caregivers in the medical profession face. Please consider this, and consider abandoning the "free-speech" cliche to excuse poor, irrelevant work that serves only to create a scandal.

value. So if you bought a couch last year for $800, you might only be able to sell it at a garage sale for $80, and that's how you record the value. Property you do not own cannot be taken from you, so some of the property I rely on outside the exemption limits is borrowed from friends and relatives. I could also rent or lease other equipment, though I might be asked for a higher deposit. In practical terms I can own individual items, such as a boombox, television set, laptop computer, etc, and as long as the used value is below a certain threshold it is not likely going to be worth seizing and selling at auction. Now, I do believe in personal responsibility, and I do not live a lavish life, nor do I have an elaborate bunker complex like the Walton family has. My family's lifestyle is probably much more frugal than my peers earning under median income, but I cannot benefit from the chapter 7 bankruptcy available to them. You can call me "judgment proof", but I'm not cheating my creditors any more than others who declare bankruptcy. If I come into a windfall of cash I will pay every last dollar I ever owed anybody. But I'm also aware that the price of medical care and other services charged to special needs households is practically extortion because they know that you can't look in your needy child's eyes and tell them "no, you will

the provider. Although a futility policy will not insulate the physician from litigation, it should enable him or her a strong defense in a medical malpractice claim.A An organization with a futility policy requires a consensus among its physicians that a proposed treatment will not be beneficial to the patient. In any legal proceedings, such a consensus should be evidence that the standard of care was not breached. This paper has tried to provide the reader a better understanding of medical futility and comfort care, who should be involved, treatment options and what organizations are offering patients today with no hope of cure. The foregoing of medical treatment based should in no way compromise any treatments in question. Also, foregoing medically futile treatment never should imply or represent abandonment of the patient, rather ensure dignity, symptom management and honoring what the patient values (Tan, Chun & Kim, 2003).

She also studied piano at the Geneva Conservatory in Switzerland and is a volunteer for Caritas, Habitat for Humanity, and the United Way. For readers afflicted with cultural and/or aesthetic myopia, yes, "That Kind of Sleep" represents a challenge, I suppose: all those "exotic" tastes, colors, sounds, smells, rhythms, textures! I found Susan Atefat-Peckham's debut collection refreshing for exactly those qualities, plus the fact that it isn't yet another hip postmodern exercise, gentrified museum tour or splayfooted confessional. What "Sleep" is, for me, is sensory and emotional accessibiltiy, musically wrought and tactfully rendered. The title sequence that concludes the book is a tour de force that needs more space to do it justice than is possible here; instead, I'd like to focus on two shorter poems that appear in the second and third sections of "Sleep." "Candlemaker" is a lyric glimpse into the life of a young (perhaps prepubescent) wife. Here's the first stanza: "Her eager form leans into heat, / her back arched over the pans, / her arms stirring. She rolls / the burning red into the soft folds / of her hands, shaping it to her flesh / and bones, trying to forget her husband's / eyes when he wanted to try again." Atefat-Peckham has a fine ear, and it shows. The cadencing, the simple, clean language, the quietly deft breaks--all realize the sexual (especially

One brother was telling me about the conditions of his family; these are poor brothers and sisters, their families are left without any caretakers, and they are suffering poverty, and no one is doing anything for them. And recently there have been some British citizens who were arrested; later on they were released because there was nothing against them. And one of them, he was beaten up by police, when they arrested him, and he did not resist at all, he raised up his hands and the police came in and started beating him up. And then what did they do? After he was bleeding and had a black eye and blood was coming from his ears and urine, the police put him in the posture of sujood and they told him, ?Where is you God now?? Insult to Islam, insult to our religion, insult to our Ummah, you need to do something; you can?t just sit there and watch. This is an insult to our religion, it?s not just an insult to the brother, and it?s an insult to Islam. You putting someone in sujood and telling him where is you god?

to 2010, consumption has climbed 14% for individuals in the bottom fifth of households, 6% for individuals in the middle fifth, and 14.3% for individuals in the top fifth when we account for changes in U.S. population and the size of households. This despite the dire economy at the end of the decade. Should we trust this research? First of all this is Kevin Hassett. How much do you trust the work once you know that? Second, it's on the WSJ editorial page. How much does that reduce your trust? I'd hope the answer is "quite a bit." Third, big red flags when researchers cherry pick start and/or end dates. Fourth, as already noted, recent research shows that the no growth in consumption inequality result is due to measurement error in the CES data. When the data are corrected, consumption inequality mirrors income inequality. They don't say a word about correcting the data. Next, we get the "but they have cell phones!" argument: Yet the access of low-income Americans -- those earning less than $20,000 in real 2009 dollars -- to devices that are part of the "good life" has increased. The percentage of low-income households with a computer rose... Appliances? The percentage of low-income homes with air-conditioning equipment..., dishwashers..., a washing machine..., a clothes dryer..., [and] microwave ovens... grew...

a medical journals term list which is based on a list prepared by the makers of the EndNote software, augmented by further titles which have begun publication in recent years. The medical journals term list records titles of journals indexed in the Medline/PubMed database. For each of those titles, it gives the full title, the Index Medicus/Medline/PubMed abbreviation and the same abbreviation with stops after each element. Note that there are some journal titles that do not appear in the medical journals term list (see section 6 below). NOTE: A journals term list is specific to a particular EndNote library. If you have more than one EndNote library, you will need to create a journals term list for each library. Now that you have imported the journals term list, you will have to make sure that the EndNote output styles which you use are configured to select the correct column in that list. For example, if you were submitting a paper to JAMA , which requires Index Medicus abbreviations of journal titles, the output style would have to be configured to take journal titles from the third column (?Abbreviation 2?) of your journals term list.

eventually lead up to the outright fraud of the Sub-Prime Disaster. In other words Liberty and Freedom have become corrupted into a "grab what you can" mentality. The Invisible Hand of Adam Smith today has less and less qualms about picking your pocket if it can both as worker and consumer! Phillip's idea concerning Liberalism, however, when you think about it can be understood far more simply. Evolutionary psychology has shown us that human nature is logically both selfish and altruistic. Because of this dual nature there really is, therefore, no alternative for us but to set up economic and political systems with appropriate checks and balances on liberty and freedom if we are all to flourish. Barge Economics and the Sub-Prime Disaster show very clearly that we have failed to do this. Britain and America are unnecessarily being hollowed out by elite capitalist global trade as a direct result of the misconceived understanding of the purpose of liberty and freedom. In truth we hold liberty and freedom in consequence of and relative to each other. Accordingly, it is Consensual Capitalism that must rule and not Feudal Capitalism. Phillip Blond quit his job in early July as Director of the Progressive Conservative Project at the British think tank Demos. Nobody is entirely sure why this happened but rumors swirl that he found it increasingly difficult to work with the director of Demos Richard Reeves and probably the Board of Trustees chair, Phillip Collins, who used to be the chief speech

to up to eighteen years. How To Become A Landscape Architect The first thing to do is find a university that offers accredited programs in landscape architecture. This field requires a bachelor's or master's degree for starting your career. It is also necessary to complete a summer internship with an architectural landscape firm during your educational study years. You will also need to find out if your state requires landscape architects to acquire a license after graduation. If so, you will need to take the Landscape Architect Registration Examination. What Are The Requirements To Be An Architect In addition to education, internship, the final exam and licensing, a prospective architect must meet certain criteria in order to succeed in this field. If you have design talent, engineering skills, a good degree of social awareness, an ability for business, and an aptitude for analytical thinking, you will do well. How Much Does It Cost To Become An Architect This will vary from school to school, but expect a good education in architecture to be an average of $6,000 a semester. The total cost for a two-year program could be anywhere from $25,000 to $72,000; a three-year program could be $40,000 to $108,000; and four years could total $55,000 to $145,000. Then there are additional costs like health insurance, living expenses, and books and supplies.

I returned to the UK today to be astonished by private confirmation from within the FCO that the UK government has indeed decided -- after immense pressure from the Obama administration -- to enter the Ecuadorean Embassy and seize Julian Assange. This will be, beyond any argument, a blatant breach of the Vienna Convention of 1961, to which the UK is one of the original parties and which encodes the centuries -- arguably millennia -- of practice which have enabled diplomatic relations to function. The Vienna Convention is the most subscribed single international treaty in the world. The provisions of the Vienna Convention on the status of diplomatic premises are expressed in deliberately absolute terms. There is no modification or qualification elsewhere in the treaty. Article 22 1.The premises of the mission shall be inviolable. The agents of the receiving State may not enter them, except with the consent of the head of the mission. 2.The receiving State is under a special duty to take all appropriate steps to protect the premises of the mission against any intrusion or damage and to prevent any disturbance of the peace of the mission or impairment of its dignity. 3.The premises of the mission, their furnishings and other property thereon and the means of transport of the mission shall be immune from search, requisition, attachment or execution.

Right about now you are thinking, "Wow! It would take me about three hours to do all that stuff!!" Well you could certainly invest three hours profitably in a Quiet Time (What a great idea! Why not try it some time!) But if you are just starting to develop this spiritual growth habit you would do well to begin with fifteen minutes a day. The key to success is to carve out some time each day and to maintain it consistently. It is much better to spend fifteen minutes a day, consistently, than to have a one hour "guilt trip" sporadically. Over time you will want to expand those minutes as God enables you. Here is a sample outline just to give some idea of how the time could be used. The Key to Success Now that you know how to use the Bible Reading Journal there is one more vital ingredient you need in order to succeed in developing and maintaining your daily Quiet Time with God: Make a Commitment! There are seven important steps to an effective commitment: Tag the Time The ideal is to meet with God at the same time in the same place every day. Choose a time when you will be alert and able to give your full attention. For many people this is usually early in the morning. For others late at night works best. There is no time more spiritual than another. Choose the time that works best for you.- Make sure

Islam is not meant to be a complicated religion at all and if you truly wish to become a muslim then that is very commendable indeed. But it is a religion that should be done when one is fully ready to commit to it and not just for the sake of getting married to a girl. If you do join the fold then... Welcome! Re: In love with Muslim girl. Me undecided Thanks for the reply, well my family is church of England but are not religious at all, I used go church when little but not for long time now. My family will accept anything I choose to do, I'm yet to meet her family but she tells me they will like me . And she tells me that there is no one else she ever want to be with.

or in the mind of the Government as to why there should be 225 even one year's suspensory veto, because every argument he has offered so far against two years is an argument against one year as well? By no means. One year is, I admit, a process of delay, but it appears to me to give the minimum of time that ought to be given to reconsideration, and the maximum that ought to be allowed to the Lords. A Bill, leaving this House and going to the Lords, and not meeting ultimately with the acceptance of their Lordships, ought to be reconsidered by this House. Let me point out to the House that the House of Lords need not reject a Bill. In fact, they did hot, I think, reject the Home Rule Bill or the Welsh Disestablishment Bill . What they did was to postpone consideration. Prorogation came, and the Bill was dead, not because the Lords had defeated it but because their House had adjourned without reaching a decision upon it. Whether the House of Lords rejects a Bill, drastically amends a Bill so that it is unacceptable to this House, or merely postpones consideration of it, we feel that while there is a Second Chamber such as the present one there should be a guarantee to them that before such a Bill is passed over their heads, this House will consider either their reasons for rejection, their reasons for drastic amendment, or the causes, if we

attached, and we will invite them to decide." You cannot get fairer than that. In one significant respect, the Liberal Democrats are at an advantage in the coming campaign. Unlike the Labour Party or the Conservatives, they have long been accustomed to fighting on both flanks. They know how to push forward while protecting their backs. For both Labour and Tory leaders, this is new and dangerous territory. The result is a confusion of political gymnastics: both try to lean simultaneously to the right on crime and immigration and to the left on social issues, while stressing their intentions to maintain fiscal discipline. And these contortions must be performed while ducking to limit damage from their support for a grievously ill-advised war. This gives Charles Kennedy his chance. As John Curtice argues today, the continuing weakness of the Conservatives may not necessarily translate into another walkover for Labour. The mathematics may turn out to be more complicated than that. This election will, to quote Mr Kennedy, "be real three-party politics". It will be all the better for that.

of liberal theorists like Richard Rorty call -- and I mean I can't believe that they ever called it this -- Richard Rorty once described philosophy as "the conversation of mankind"; borrowing a phrase from Michael Oakeshott . Well that's very nice, except certain people didn't get to talk in the history of Western Civilisation. They were excluded from the conversation. The deviant were excluded -- and I am naming some now that have been studied by Foucault -- deviants, criminals, the mad, and of course the more normal exclusions. Up until very recently women, the young, the old, the infirm, and so on; excluded in a certain way from this conversation, and I am not afraid to say along with Marx that we really don't notice many working class or lower class people in the early great literature of the West. In all the works of Homer , only one common foot soldier appears and he has one line, basically he says to Nestor , you know, the wise old General the plan basically sucks and he walks out of the book and that's it [crowd laughter] And of course it does, and so it's kind of a little joke, I think Homer was aware that certain people weren't getting to talk. So when we talk about Athenian democracy we need to remember that just like early American democracy it excluded a lot of people. In fact, according to Foucault, the exclusions were a condition for the possibility of

Tottenham boss Villas-Boas facing injury headache for Arsenal clash Tottenham boss Andre Villas-Boas is facing a mounting injury crisis ahead of Saturday's north London derby against Arsenal. Kyle Walker, Jermain Defoe and Aaron Lennon are all struggling to be fit for the Premier League showdown at the Emirates. Injury headache: Spurs boss Andre Villas-Boas And Mousa Dembele is unlikely to be risked as he battles with a long-standing hip problem. Walker, Defoe and Lennon are all to assessed on Thursday after they suffered hamstring injuries during the 2-1 defeat at Manchester City last weekend, which prevented them from taking part in England's friendly in Sweden. Walker and Lennon withdrew from the original squad and Defoe was unable to link up with Roy Hodgson's group as cover for Wayne Rooney Walker looked in some discomfort when he limped off towards the end of the match at Etihad Stadium, while Lennon was also replaced late on. Defoe played little part in the game after coming on as an 80th-minute substitute for Emmanuel Adebayor. Concern: Kyle Walker holds his hamstring Villas-Boas will be hoping for better news from Mousa Dembele. The Belgian midfielder has not played for Spurs since October 7 because of a hip injury and is struggling to be fit for the trip to Emirates Stadium. Spurs decided not to send Dembele for surgery to cure the problem but they have missed his energy and creativity in the centre and desperately need him to recover, with matches against Lazio, West Ham

People entrusted with a relative's financial affairs are being let down. Financial institutions are causing unnecessary suffering to the relatives of people with mental disabilities because of confusion between individuals with Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) and deputies appointed by the Court of Protection. Whether it is an elderly relative with dementia or a young person mentally disabled at birth or in an accident, there are numerous situations in which relatives of a mentally incapacitated person need to be able to manage that person's affairs. An "attorney" is appointed under an LPA when a person (the "donor") makes the decision, before they become incapacitated, to appoint someone they trust (the "attorney") to look after their finances or property. LPAs replaced the Enduring Power of Attorney (EPA) on October 1 2007, but EPAs drawn up before that date can still be used. When an individual who lacks mental capacity has not granted an LPA or EPA, or when an existing attorney dies while the donor is still alive, a deputy has to be appointed by the Court of Protection. This is why it may be advisable for a donor to appoint two individuals with Lasting Power of Attorney, in case one predeceases the donor. Although thousands of people are appointed each year as attorneys or deputies, the unfortunate experience of Teresa Sienkiewicz at the hands of Nationwide Building Society and Barclays (see case study) indicates that staff at some financial institutions do not know how to deal with third parties seeking

Breath Demand Was Not Made As Soon As Practicable, So Driver Was Acquitted A man charged with impaired driving in Victoria was found not guilty after the trial judge ruled that a breath demand had not been made as soon as practicable. The decision is called R. v. Thompson 2011 BCPC 0202 . The issue of whether a breath demand has been made as soon as practicable is argued often by BC criminal lawyers. The judge explained why it is important: [5] Before going any further, though, I would like to put this decision into context by making the observation that I do not view the resolution of the issue raised in this case as involving a mere technicality. There is a logical connection between the requirement for timeliness reflected in s. 254(3) and the operation of the presumption contained in s. 258 (1)(c). The presumption involves a fiction. In reality, a person's blood alcohol level at the time of testing in a police station is unlikely to be the same as it was at the time of driving. As a matter of policy, however, Parliament has decided that, within reason, the divergence is to be overlooked in the quest to obtain a greater measure of control over the menace of drunk driving. The legislation represents an assessment that the divergence is tolerable so long as investigating police officers move with reasonable dispatch to obtain breath samples. Hence, the time limitations found in s. 254(3) and in various other provisions

Hopefully Romney will bring his best effort tonight. Our long-time allies expect and need America to provide real leadership. Obama should be worried about the debate given the litany of failure comprising his record. The vacuous and obsequious approach to foriegn policy has made the world a more dangerous place. The clamor to pawn the leadership role off to the UN, a disfunctional organization with a long history of enabling the dictators and abandoning the helpless, is unacceptable. Those who resent America quickly become silent when asked which country of the world they would like to see take our place. Four more years of leading from behind will likely produce consequences in the long-term we cannot afford. There was one. Romney should have counterattacked at the suggestion that he was trying to politicize the death of our ambassador and stressed that he was trying to hold the administration accountable not only for the intelligence and security failures that preceded the attack but also for the deliberate lies to the American public after the attack, AND for apologizing for and misrepresenting our free speech rights. Hmm, I dunno. I watched that little exchange again a while ago, as it nagged at me,

consideration. Thirdly , Google have said that its probable that they won't correct mistakes. If they do it will be a very slow process and even afterwards the re-avowed links will not carry as much value as they had done. Conclusion It is highly unlikely that you will need to use this tool and even if you think you do need to use it, you probably shouldn't. Try and manually have links removed. If you do go ahead and use the Disavow Tool, use it sparingly and with the same degrees of caution you would if you were disarming a bomb. Do NOT make any mistakes.

that "southerners" are helped out. This could be simply solved by a discount for people whose views are "affected" by said wind farms and i imagine the complaints would drop. For those who wind turbines eyesores, I always point out how they are no different from Pylons, which litter the countryside. ttp://wisb.blogspot.com/ SMD Mark: My problem isn't with activism, per se, but with activism that results in violence, whether against person or property. It's the same exact reason why I cannot stand the Animal Liberation Front. They talk about "peaceful action," but what they're actually doing is destroying massive amounts of property (or thieving like mad). I understand that causes are important, but individuals causing damage to other individuals (or groups of individuals) in order to get a point across is not the way I want my democracy to work. What I want is for governments to start taking responsibility and slamming these companies for all the things they have done wrong. The fact is that BP should be bankrupt right now. The same is true of the coal mines in the last twenty years that have violated rules and so on. I want that. I want corporations to have a choice: you can follow our rules about the environment, or you can lose everything when you get caught doing something awful. But I'm an idealist, I guess.

who seeks popularity at the expense of the organization's best interests in their decisions -- who, as I suggest in terms of a universal idea, is not a desired leader. If the questions to be answered from this article answered are, "Why do I want to lead?" and "What's the purpose of my leadership?" -- it is the reply to these questions by those selecting the leader for a position, or their understanding of the answers given by the prospective leader, that offer the chance to put the best possible person into a leadership position. Of course a leader must be introspective, but to avoid a leader losing their way it must be ensured initially that the leader has the right traits. Frank Riganelli Author, http://www.freado.com/users/28684/frank-\\... Former Fortune management, consultant, trainer Values-based/ethical/etc leadership is a very hot topic now. Leadership based on strong, servant values works and is very much in need. I love the article and comments, but fear it may be a truism that "values-based leadership" and leading by knowing our True North are good things. Unfortunately, one's values are not achieved from articles, MBA classes, and such. Somehow we've got the values we've got "right now," and for many of us, they are not the right ones to properly lead.

Once a seller accepts an offer and a hand-over date, they are obligated to move out by the date specific. Only under difficult circumstances, can they request for an extension and even so requires the permission of the buyer. Many sellers would only look to buy when they have conditionally accepted an offer rather than buy first then sell later. So maybe you like the house but you can't move in when you want to but rather have to wait because the seller sets a condition that they will want to move out later than the normal 3 weeks which you have accepted in the sales purchase agreement. All this has to do with your negotiation skills as a buyer. We just had an offer accepted yesterday so in the same situation. We are not being represented by a buyer's agent but dealing with the seller's agent. I was advised by several people to use a Solicitor, and after starting the process today I am glad we have. Not sure where you are coming from but it soo different to buying a house back in the States. The Solicitor ordered the title, LIM report and then also checked over our sales and purchase agreement. She is also communicating with the building inspector, valuer and the broker/bank. The fee for this is approx $1250. Our bank is paying most of the legal fees. Hope this helps, just my 2 cents.

What did he think of comics? He wasn't a reader of comics but he knew what he liked visually. I remember him saying, whilst I was reading something, that it was too messy: "If you can't tell what's going on when you look at it upside down, it's too messy." I think that's good advice. I'm guessing with all this talent in the household, you must have been exposed to a wider cross-section of comics and art, and at an earlier age than the average child. Yeah, I remember being a bit disturbed by some Robert Crumb comics at an early age, all hairy legs and trousers 'round ankles. But mostly the fact that there was a weekly influx of comics, as well as Steve's ever-expanding collection that he would buy, there was all the stuff he was working on that we would get for free! The Hulk Weekly , Doctor Who , 2000AD , Warrior . All great stuff. Sneaking into my brother's studio when he wasn't there was a big thrill ... the smell of pencil shavings, Indian ink, used brushes and piles of paper. It all made a massive impression on me.

a case, one pushes further and further afield, often only stopping on the very brink of disaster. The counter-tendency then steps into the place that has been vacated; alone, in its turn, it will go as far as it can go. If the other was called action, then this will be reaction. As the two tendencies, if they had journeyed together, would have moderated each other, as their interpenetration in an undivided primitive tendency is the very definition of moderation, the mere fact of taking up all the room imparts to each of them such an impetus that it bolts ahead as the barriers collapse one by one; there is something frenzied about it. Now we must not make exaggerated use of the word "law" in a field which is that of liberty, but we may use this convenient term when we are confronted with important facts which show sufficient regularity. So we will call law of dichotomy that law which apparently brings about a materialization, by a mere splitting up, of tendencies which began by being two photographic views, so to speak, of one and the same tendency. And we propose to designate law of twofold frenzy the imperative demand, forthcoming from each of the two tendencies as soon as it is materialized by the splitting, to be pursued to the very end as if there was an end! Once more, it is difficult not to wonder whether the simple tendency would not have done better to grow without

assessment and cladistic analysis of morphological, ultrastructural, and molecular data to uncover major early diverging lineages of green plants. Scotland et al. (2003 ? , p. 545) claim that morphological data are being superceded by molecular data because "much of the useful morphological diversity has already been scrutinized." This is clearly not the case for groups such as the green algae, for which new morphological data are still being obtained, albeit at a much slower rate than molecular data. Novel molecular lineages are prime targets for future ultrastructural studies, but molecular diversity is not always predictive of ultrastructural diversity (O'Kelly et al., 2004 ? ). If our goal is to circumscribe natural and recognizable groups, understand morphological evolution, and study adaptation, the collection of disembodied sequence data will be of little use without ultrastructural data. In the case of green algae, discovery and characterization of unsampled diversity could have an immense impact in recovering the green plant tree of life. Footnotes ? 1 The authors thank F.

books from my Kindel, sorted and got work emails set up, sorted WiFi (well my son did) and bob's ya uncle, good to go... To conclude THIS TABLET IS FAB!!! and so easy, even for a none tech person like me - LOVE IT :-) I was going to wait for the galaxy note 10.1, but then decided that I didn't really need a top spec tablet at a top spec price. I managed to get mine a few weeks before the u k launch, on Amazon but it cost me a little more 329 when AMAZON HAVE IT IN STOCK you should not have to pay more than 299, if out of stock they seem to get them again in a day or so, so don't get stung on the price as some are charging more.After sseeing some videos I was a little disappointed as mine had not arrived at that time ....... I think a lot of the reviewers were concentrating on the fact that this tablet was a replacement for the galaxy tab 1. They were expecting a tablet of the highest spec so only concentrated on knocking this tablet in relation to the upcoming Galaxy Note 10.1 which is going to be Sammys top of the range tablet with a price to match. I like the feel and quality as well as the experience of the Samsung Galaxy range so did not want to stray in to other tablets around the same price range. I have

Test Evenly Poised After Two Days 1st Test, Day 2 Sri Lanka v New Zealand First Session Tim Southee continued where he left off, striking with only his fourth delivery of the day when he picked up Tharanga Paranavitana for a duck. Paranavitana went to drive at a delivery, but could only inside edge it onto his leg stump to produce Sri Lanka's 5th instance of both openers falling for ducks in test cricket. In his next over, Southee thought he had nightwatchman Suraj Randiv out caught at third slip only for Brendan McCullum to drop what should've been a straight forward catch. Very next delivery though, Randiv wasn't given another reprieve, as almost exactly the same thing happened, except this time going to Martin Guptill at second slip, and he made sure not to spill the beans this time, having Sri Lanka in early trouble at 3/18. McCullum himself made amends for his drop in the next over as he latched on to one from Kumar Sangakkara off the bowling of Trent Boult to have Sri Lanka reeling at 4/21 with one of their big guns gone. Thilan Samaraweera joined his captain Mahela Jayawardene as the two attempted to remedy the situation their team had gotten themselves into, and while they did at least double the team's total, Southee struck yet again. This time he had Samaraweera padding up to a good length delivery outside off that was swinging back in, and while it hit outside the line of

we're continually surprised on the new areas. When we speak to people it's quite astounding that they don't realise what a problem it is and we've produced booklets and the likes of this programme hopefully to get awareness out there so people can get onto it. Roger : What should a farmer do if they see tutsan at their place? Graham : Get in and spray it with Brushkiller or Conquest and keep going back to get that regeneration. Tell your neighbours about it. Roger : Hey Graham, thanks so much for taking the time to speak to us. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON TUTSAN ACTION GROUP (TAG) Background: Tutsan (Hypericum androsaemum) is a close relative of St John's wort and a highly invasive pasture weed. It is spread by wind, water, birds and machinery and is throughout the country. Current major infestations are across the Ruapehu region, as well as in Waikato and Bay of Plenty but it's known from Kaitaia to Bluff and even the Chatham Islands. Pasture infestations can be controlled with chemicals and Tordon XT is the right choice; in the early days you can minimise its impact by pumping up grass but once it becomes established in the roadsides and bush margins it then readily invades recently sprayed scrub blocks, open pasture and harder to improve pasture such as hill country. The costs of control can be huge with some stations spending tens of thousands of dollars annually just trying to maintain previously cleared areas.

include the Seydels as defendants. In her suit, Dobner alleges the iAroma product was "intentionally mislabeled" as a potpourri product. Her lawyers assert that the store owners and distributors knew that the product was "routinely, if not exclusively, ingested by people" by smoking. Dobner also asserts that Mohsin was warned personally by someone that iAroma was dangerous and could "cause psychotic problems." And, Dobner alleges that Mohsin did not seek the identities of those making the product, or any lab certifications of the product's safety. In their responses, the defendants said the product was not sold to be smoked. Instead, they said, it was labeled "Not for Human Consumption" and was intended to serve as "an ionizer or deodorizer," similar to incense. They said anyone smoking the product, as Max Dobner did, would "misuse" the product. In the court filings, Mohsin's lawyer argued that Max Dobner "smoked iAroma in conscious disregard of the knowledge that doing so would cause him to become intoxicated" and, by doing so, "freely and voluntarily assumed the risk of consuming iAroma by smoking it." In a response filed by his lawyer, Kevin Seydel argues that, as a result, Max Dobner bears "50 percent of more of the total fault" in the incident. Mohsin also denied outright selling the product to Max Dobner on June 14, 2011, or ever being informed of the dangers of the product. Karen Dobner's lawyers, in response, have denied that Max Dobner's death was the fault of his own negligence and

fun anymore? And how many of us swore this would never happen to us when we were dating? Sadly, most married people don't have enough quality sex. Sooner or later, all long-term couples can fall into a sex rut, especially when you have kids. Parenthood takes a toll physically, mentally, and emotionally. With all the running around and huge expenses adding up, it's easy to see how sex can slip off the list of priorities for both partners. Sex doesn't have to be first on that list for a healthy relationship, but it needs to be pretty high up there. So let's start at the beginning. One of the most important ingredients of fun, kinky sex doesn't really have that much to do with sex at all. The first step is to fall back in love, and lust will soon follow. You'll see that if you lay the groundwork correctly, things will start clicking into place. In this short chapter, we'll get reacquainted with the simple art of romance -- of showing your partner they are more to you than the one who brings home the paycheck or drops the kids off at school. That they are a person you are still attracted to and want to be closer to. You may be shocked that something as simple as paying more attention to each other will lead to better sex, and the same goes for doing the dishes when it isn't your night, or complimenting your partner on something they

way to get rich, if the median app gets under 1,000 downloads (meaning, half of all apps out there get even less than that). Obviously most apps on the App Store are free apps, so yes, the numbers are somewhat better for the paid apps, but this is no goldmine. I have been cautioning audiences globally to beware of the app store opportunity, it is a treacherous one, and its not anywhere near the easiest way to make money in mobile. And while we are on those numbers, the total smartphone app revenues in 2011 were now 12 billion yes, but those were not all 'app store' type of consumer apps. Like in years past, the majority of the smartphone app revenues were still generated by enterprise/business apps, such as those for the Blackberry enterprise users, sold often with licenses counted in the thousands or more. Consumer apps associated with 'app stores' only were worth 5 Billion dollars last year, 2011, and enterprise apps were worth 7 Billion dollars, giving us the grand total of 12 Billion dollars last year for all types of smartphone apps. 12 Billion may seem big perhaps. But before you get excited about that number - all apps revenues formed only 4% of the total mobile data revenues opportunity last year.

discomfort. How should I take my bisphosphonate and do they interfere with any other medications? Generally, bisphosphonates should be taken first thing in the morning. You should remain upright for half an hour after taking them; but you may walk around. Calcium supplements and oral bisphosphonates should be taken several hours apart, as the absorption of one can interfere with the other. How long should I stay on medication for my bones? You will probably have to take medication long-term. Currently, clinical trials looking at preventing fractures only extend for 5 years. If you are at high risk of fractures (e.g., have a prevalent fracture or osteoporosis on BMD T-score criteria) you are likely to be advised to continue treatment beyond 5 years. Your doctor may need to monitor the effect of treatment by repeating DXA scans and other tests at various stages. I am 50, have rheumatoid arthritis and am on high doses of corticosteroids. What should I do for my bone health? It is generally recommended that people commencing corticosteroid therapy for more than 3 months should be placed on a bisphosphonate at the same time to prevent bone loss and fractures. A calcium supplement should also be considered. I am a 75 year old woman and becoming very hunched over in the top and middle part of my spine - do I have osteoporosis or is this just part of ageing?

Here are fifty thalers for thee. Take these and go into the wide world, and tell no one from whence thou comest, and who is thy father, for I have reason to be ashamed of thee." "Yes, father, it shall be as you will. If you desire nothing more than that, I can easily keep it in mind." When day dawned, therefore, the boy put his fifty thalers into his pocket, and went forth on the great highway, and continually said to himself, "If I could but shudder! If I could but shudder!" Then a man approached who heard this conversation which the youth was holding with himself, and when they had walked a little farther to where they could see the gallows, the man said to him, "Look, there is the tree where seven men have married the ropemaker's daughter, and are now learning how to fly.

This year, in that spirit, we're going to mix up our approach to our evening events and community parties! Comments I have no ideas for a party but I really loved the vibe at 2012's Queerosphere. The live band was fabulous and not so loud that you couldn't socialize with everyone. It was social and relaxing but still obviously a party and I really loved it. Karen Ballum That was the only party I didn't feel completely overwhelmed at -- where I actually felt like I could talk to people I barely knew and people I just met. Otherwise I felt like I needed wing people to just get through the door. I loved Queerosphere.

How to keep on top of paperwork Ahh, paperwork. There aren't many things I enjoy more than doing the paperwork. Oh wait, that might be a lie. It's just so boring and takes up so much space and time and effort. I'd much rather spend my time on Pinterest... Despite all that, I've worked out my own little paperwork system -- it's probably an organised person's nightmare, but it works for me.
