But each time, I have returned home, defeated and had to force myself to sleep so that my heart didn't kill me. I began my autobiography at 23 years old, with the intention that I wouldn't live 'til 25. But I'd done nothing, loved no-one, said nothing of any great importance by that time. The journal of a disappointed man. I took a position at the Natural History Museum but left after only 3 months due to allergies. Whilst deluding myself that I could reinforce the scientist's power of detached analysis with a poetic intensity, I would cough up my guts on the glass that held the giant stuffed man-o-war. I had a gift of incisive and candid comment, but I failed to ignite it when faced with the apple-cheeked Irish girl who served the tea in the basement canteen. Drunk most nights, in the Black Swan on Canal St, I would attempt to put my own complicated nature under the microscope of a beer glass. I walked home alone, opening the air with bolshy, slurred dictums against religion, ethics, love and life itself. Lonely, penniless, paralysed by the guilt of never having told my father I loved him, I wander hospital corridors, posing as a visitor. I have wept, enjoyed, struggled and overcome but I remain disappointed.

Add the orzo and the chicken broth and bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Stir in the scallions and cook until the orzo is al dente, about 3 minutes. Meanwhile, in a food processor, puree the basil, cheese, parsley, tarragon, pine nuts, garlic, lemon peel and lemon juice. Scrape down the sides and then, with the motor running, pour in the remaining extra virgin olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and transfer the pesto to a small bowl.

not here imposing a religious gloss over basically secular institutions; the family and the city were religious at their inception , as authorities have been in most places and at most times. Even at Rome's nadir of impiety, Cicero saw that a collective consensus on justice is an essential property of a republic, and this consensus on justice is nothing other than the collective affirmation of God's Law that I identified above as the key feature of an authoritative community. Understanding these norm-imposing communities is key to understanding conservatism. Liberals and other nonconservatives often ask us how we reconcile our commitments to group loyalty and universal morality, to tradition and natural law. It's a very good question, and those who ask it deserve better answers than the ones they often get. A related question is this: are groups to be seen as means or as ends? The liberals insist that groups are means to the fulfilment of individuals. When we consider the dignity of the human person, bearing as he does the image of God, and think of how repugnant it would be for persons to be used as mere cannon-fodder, we realize that the liberal must be at least partly right. It cannot be the case the a group's members are nothing but raw material for the group. The fascists, on the other hand, say the opposite, that it is the state that is the end and the individuals who are means (i.e. ends only insofar as they are

In today's world there aren't any products or services that a customer wants that we do not want. One doesn't have to wait for a survey or a customer feedback loop to get it.

He had demonstrated his sporting process by winning the Birmingham wheelchair half marathon after training with Paralympic athlete Mickey Bushell. But then Williams' lawyer sent him a clipping about Channel 4's talent quest for Paralympic presenters and a teasing note saying: "Arthur, put in for this because you're not bad looking and you're a gobshite." After a "speculative" approach, Williams found himself doing interviews, screen tests and finally a "boot camp" in preparation for his television debut next week. "Flippin' heck, I'm a Marine so it wasn't really that tough," he says. "They liked to think it was boot camp and they had the lights on in the dark and it was all very Hollywood and late nights -- but I pushed my boundaries in ways I didn't think my personality would stretch." He got the job and will work alongside experienced presenter Georgie Bingham, offering his specialist knowledge of Paralympic sport. "She can be a representative of the audience because she is learning this with all of you guys back at home and she can ask me the questions that everybody is thinking." Williams praises Britain's "open-minded" society for being "really well-placed" to help Paralympics grow.

Former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan told Bloomberg Television's Betty Liu on 'In the Loop Friday morning that 'markets will crater if we run into any evidence that we can't solve this (fiscal cliff) problem'. Greenspan on the fiscal cliff 'We have to recognize that this is going to be extraordinarily difficult to solve. All of the simple low hanging fruits have been picked and the presumption that we are going to resolve the big issue on spending by making a few little twitches here and there I think is a little naive. If we get out of this with a moderate recession, I would say that the price is very cheap. The presumption that we will solve this problem without paying I think is grossly inappropriate'. On Simpson and Bowles saying that the markets could crash if a deal isn't made 'I think it is not only Simpson-Bowles. I think the markets are getting very shaky. And they are getting shaky because I think fiscal policy is out of control. And I think the markets will crater if we run into any evidence that we cannot solve this problem. And I think the notion that the issue of the impact on the economy is strictly the spending tax issue, is also the market. I think we underestimate the extent to which the market value of assets has a very important impact on real GDP'. On whether the U.S. is headed into a recession even if a deal is made

30 and 50 hours of raw footage shot by Eisenstein. As a member of the cast, film historian Joseph McBride saw the rushes , and later saw a two-hour rough cut assembled by Gary Graver in the late 1990s to attract potential investors. McBride wrote that the film "serves as both a time capsule of a pivotal moment in film history - an "instant" piece of period nostalgia set in the early seventies - and a meditation on changing political, sexual and artistic attitudes in the United States during that period." [ 51 ] However, he differentiated the bulk of the film - which he praised very highly - from the footage of Hannaford's film-within-a-film: I found that while the languid visual style of the film-within-the-film interludes would give the audience ample time to recover from the frenetic pacing of the party scenes, a more serious obstacle to the film's playability is the largely undramatic nature of much of the material putatively shot by Hannaford. Little or nothing happens in these sequences except for Oja mysteriously wandering seminude around picturesque locales and Bob Random doggedly roaring his motorcycle through expressionistically lit landscapes. The footage is beautifully shot, and there is some stunning photographic magic, such as a sequence filmed among the skyscrapers of Century City with the two characters' images vanishing into ten mirrors arranged invisibly among the stone steps and glass columns of the coldly geometrical modern office buildings...However, in the rough cut assembled by Graver to show potential

I can stomach for a sandwich). Saveur and Jamie magazine both opt for the grill, Saveur cleverly giving the ham and cheese-topped bread an initial blast of heat to melt the Gruyre before adding the second piece of bread and the bechamel sauce. The latter toasts the bread first, then adds the ham, cheese and bechamel all at once (he also leave it as an open sandwich -- a croque rarebit , if you will -- an accepted variation, perhaps, but too cheesy for my liking). Given the name (croque means crunch), Saveur's soft, bready version seems both inauthentic and texturally disappointing: as any Welshman will tell you, you really need to toast the bread before you add the cheese or things will quickly descend into a gooey mess. I'm torn: my decision to use bechamel seems to rule out frying the sandwich in butter (which, of course, makes it completely and utterly delicious) but I'm not overly keen on Waitrose's clever use of the cheesy bechamel as a filling rather than a topping which seems to be the only way to combine both frying and bechamel. It seems too gloopy to belong in a sandwich. Perfect croque monsieur Felicity's perfect croque monsieur. Photograph: Felicity Cloake In the end I decide to toast the bread first, as Jamie magazine does, but only on side to mimic the simultaneously soft and crisp texture one gets from frying. I'm also going to brush it with butter, to make it as robustly crunchy

But there was one instance where the character was played by a new actor--when the actress playing the part of Mrs. Banks on "Fresh Prince of Bel Air" got fired, and a new actress was brought in to continue the role, Will Smith's buddy Jazz looked at her and said, "Mrs. Banks, you look *different* this morning!" I really don't think there would be any major changes to the Doctor Who timeline. I mean, the Fox series would, to them, just be that crazy thing the Americans did. Also, though, I believe your initial premise is inherantly flawed. There is NO WAY it would have lasted 5 years. Just no way. I think it may have gone a full season, maybe 2, 3 at the absolute most. But I really don't see it making 3 seasons. So yeah, I don't think Tom Baker's streak was ever in any danger of being broken by the "American" Doctor.

There are also ethical considerations when examining the practice of recruiting health care professionals, particularly if they are recruited from regions or countries where health care shortages already exist. The rights of individuals to move as they see fit may need to be balanced against the idea of the greater good of those left behind. Due to the shortages, it has been found the level of health service in rural or poor areas has decreased, leading to lower quality and productivity of health services, closure of hospital wards, increased waiting times, reduced numbers of available beds for inpatients, diversion of emergency department patients and underuse of remaining personnel or substitution with persons lacking the required skills for performing critical interventions [ 30 ]. The article "Not enough here, too many there: understanding geographical imbalances in the distribution of the health workforce" (2003), states that a reduced number of health care workers in a given area has a direct effect on the life expectancy of its residents. For example, in the rural areas of Mexico, life expectancy is 55 years, compared to 71 years in the urban areas. Additionally, in "the wealthier, northern part of the country, infant mortality is 20/1000 as compared to more than 50/1000 in the poorer southern states" [ 31 ].

So have your smart questions, know why you want to meet with someone, and then the timing of it, for me, is less concerning. SARAH GREEN: So I have another timing question now which is, how much time and effort should you be putting on some of this exploration before you're officially hunting for a job or officially on the market?

So if you are the type of person that tends to not move to action quickly, then I think giving yourself a timeframe of two to three months for exploration and then making sure you start applying for positions, that might be what you need. If you're someone who is really, you jump right into things quickly, and you're spontaneous, and you tend to take whatever job falls into your lap first, or you fall in love with every company you interview for, then you might be the type of person who

now, it is usually safe to say that inflation is also low. Thus, bricks and mortar may not be the best place to invest. Try getting the cheapest home loan you can find and make the minimum repayment. This allows you to use the extra cash to invest in other, more profitable areas areas. You may find that the return you get on shares or some other type of investment means that you have created a nice little nest egg which you can use to pay off a bigger chunk of your home loan than you might otherwise have been able to do. But beware - high returns often mean high risks. Before undertaking any investment, invest in a consultation with a qualified financial adviser. 15. Run an offset account Instead of earning interest, any money you have in your offset account works to offset the interest you are paying on your home loan. For example you may have a mortgage of $300,000 at 7.07 percent and an offset account with $50,000 in it earning 3 percent. This means that $250,000 of your loan is accruing interest at 7.07 percent but the rest is accruing interest at just over 4 percent (7.07 percent on your loan less the 3 percent the $50,000 in your offset account is earning).

The book is arranged by giving historical anecdotes and personal accounts from people who either finished their rumspringa or were currently engaged in their own at the time of writing. The book is written by one of the documentarians who helped produce the film of the same subject called 'Devil's Playground,' which contains many, if not all, of the people interviewed for the film.

'New Zealand sound' within the various genres that make up popular music will depend on whether it can break the confines of global isolation that has always held it back. Although the New Zealand music industry is enjoying its strongest market in years, there is still debate as to whether New Zealand music should strive towards heterogeneity or homogenisation in order to become globally (and therefore commercially) viable. Artists such as Salmonella Dub and Pitch Black have been active in building a fanbase for their distinctive sounds in both Australia and Europe, yet neither act is financially profitable [170] , and in a recent television show [171] David Kilgour, who was being interviewed as one of the godfathers of the 'Dunedin Sound', admitted that he was now able to make a living out of music. Out of all the artists featured here, Kiri Te Kanawa would seem to be the only one whose talent has been rewarded, yet the musicians continue to produce music for the love of it, and thus continue to insert music's importance to the culture of Aotearoa. Has New Zealand music a distinctive sound within the world market? Perhaps not yet, but increasingly, it can be shown to possess a sound grounded in the local, which like most of our artforms looks for inspiration to the many configurations of place and space that make up our cultural landscape. [3] That this notion continues to persist is shown by the findings of Roy Shuker, in his 1995

There are alot of BTL landlords who own Mutley plain/peverell/north hill and rent out to students. Everytime a new student accoodatiom like this gets built the competition gets harder.... combined with fall in applicants (due to crisis and increased fees) owning a Student let is getting more and more risky Just curious because in my eyes and recollection of uni life new halls of residence (i.e this place) are great for students as they newly decorated, up to date with technology (internet etc) and great for social networkings (10 flats to a corridor for example). Best times of my life were in halls. So on a student front i think if it was built it would be filled with students.... those students would have to come from somewhere and i think it would be the private student btl market which would suffer.

2 Comments General Comment: Yeah, it's about JFK and I've heard Dylan had a song with the same title as well. Grateful Dead do as well, though the lyrics are very different. Cat Power has a song by the same title, and some of the lyrics are very similar, but I think it's kind of a half-cover or something. This is the only song by the Byrds that I really like, mostly because of its topic. It's really good, though. General Comment: I think its kind of obvious that this song is about the JFK assassanation. I'm pretty sure Dylan had a song titled the same, but I think it had different lyrics. Either way, this is a great song, and even though its about a very sad thing, it still sounds happy.

counselor at Y-Haven , a YMCA program that helps homeless men overcome addiction. While he was there, the Ohio Supreme Court gave him his law license back. Last year, Garrity left Y-Haven to start his own law firm. He specializes in criminal defense and helping health care professionals regain the licenses they've lost because of alcohol or drugs. He has a girlfriend now. He lectures lawyers about avoiding addiction. And a few times a week, he helps other addicts figure out what kind of treatment they need. It was a couple of days after Christmas and Angelo asked his uncle for one of his Robin Hood Cream Ales. When nobody was looking, he drank the whole thing. His legs went numb and a wonderful dizziness overtook him. If this is what being loaded is like, sign me up, he told himself. That was 1976. He was 7 years old. "By the time I was 12, I was probably drunk four or five times a month," Angelo says. Even though his parents didn't drink, their Fairview Park home was the place where friends and neighbors gathered. And those gatherings always included alcohol. Other kids in the neighborhood drank, but not like Angelo. "The day of my eighth-grade graduation, I found a 12-pack of Hamm's beer and I started drinking about three hours before my graduation," he says. "And I never had an inkling at that point that I was sick." Angelo went on to St. Edward, where he played defensive back

Highly recommended to anyone eager to discover the thrills and delights of making wine at home." Gastronomica "Can you change a tire? Then you can make wine....

San Francisco Chronicle "An essential reference that takes you step-by-step through techniques used by professionals to create quality small-lot wines. A book like this would have been a huge help for me when I first started making wine!

Resolved Question Why do some Christians feel the need to constantly ask patronizing answers about atheists here? I swear, if I had a pound for every "do atheists know how to tie their shoes?" or other sarcastic little questions, I'd be a billionaire, and yet I rarely see any atheists doing the same for Christians and religious people. Of course people are going to insult your religion if you provoke them. Additional Details I meant questions not answers in title - typo. Sorry. 4 months ago Jake - I don't look for anything, whether it be Christian to atheist hatred or vice versa. If something comes up on the main yahoo answers page, I see it.

that it's odd that so much of Cosgrove's allowed donations came from one source. And Danyl at the Dim-Post calls it "fishy" noting: Here's the problem: While Clayton Cosgrove knows his own soul and is confident he did nothing wrong, there's no way for the public to discern between an honest MP who drafts a bill in good faith and just happens to receive a very large donation from a company which benefits from it, and a corrupt MP who takes a payment from a company for drafting a bill. Which is why MPs usually go out of their way to avoid this kind of confusion, and declare conflicts of interests when intersections of money, friendship and legislation pop up. Labour (rightly) demanded that Nick Smith stop down over the ACC affair, and that John Banks step down over the Sky City donations: I don't see how they can keep Cosgrove on the front bench. 8 comments: Judge Holden said... Well, he was open and transparent, and has acted legally and hasn't told any lies. He declared the donation and obviously the private members' bill was in the public arena and he stated in advance in public he was going to draft it. Unlike, ummm, John Banks, who failed to declare his SkyCity donation, told Dotcom how he though he could get around electoral laws, and then told a bunch of lies about his relationship with him.

and ideas, there are so many more platforms where you can tell your stories, reveal your ideas and showcase your talent: where you can try to connect with and grow an audience. No, it may not make you rich and it may not even be how you pay the bills. At times I fear there will be fewer paid jobs in journalism and that many who practice the craft may do it as so many other artists and craftsman operate -- as part of a life, but not a singular vocation. I do think though that most of the time, the most energetic, the most creative, those who work the hardest will find a way and that journalism will be a marvellous journey. And I think this new book, Australian Journalism Today, gives a unique insight into preparing for the world of journalism. Not just the skills you need -- I did enjoy Peter Clarke's analysis of interview techniques -- but also the nature of the industry and the values and principles that underpin it. I want to thank you Matthew for your leadership of the project and all the authors who contributed to it. I am sure it will find a strong and engaged audience, particularly with this generation of journalism students all around Australia. As to the business models that will support and sustain journalism, I am afraid will still don't know. We still can't see the sustainable, wide-ranging solutions to that wicked problem anywhere in the world.

far as Scotland is concerned -- thank God for that. They represent what our best Scottish historian, Thomas Carlyle, described as 'That great lying Church of England' and their present protestations show that they are living up to type." -- [ OFFICIAL REPORT, 10th November, 1947; Vol. 444, c. 139. ] I think it right that a Scottish Member should say that that kind of sentiment, 293 in his view at least, and I believe in the view of the majority of Scottish Members of all parties, belonging to all churches, would be against that sort of irresponsible and wrong-minded statement in the British House of Commons. I should like the hon. Member for South Ayrshire to consider what these reactionary Archbishops said. All they were asking for was national unity at a time of deep and ever-deepening crisis in this country. They ask for exactly the same type of thing as the Minister for Economic Affairs asked for over a week ago in a speech which must have awakened many echoes in all parts of the House. It is not for me to represent or to try to interpret what the Archbishops said much better than I could say it, but what a lot of us feel is that the British Constitution does not belong to the Labour Party. It does not belong to any political party. It is the proud inheritance of every man and woman of the British race. It is in trust with us for those

the late 1990s, outsiders from southern Brazil began buying up property at a pittance. "There are many small farmers who don't know the value of money," Nnes said. "They thought the money would last, but it doesn't." Now they languish in Santarm's growing slums. Those who refused to sell found themselves encircled by an encroaching wasteland, as whining chain saws and raging fires consumed the trees right up to the edge of their land. Their yards were overrun with vipers, bees, and rodents escaping the apocalypse, and when tractors began spraying the cleared fields, toxic clouds of pesticides drifted into their homes. "Their health was in jeopardy," Nnes said. "Many started getting sick. Their animals started dying." Nnes and her husband, Everaldo Pimentel, still live as traditional family farmers, growing corn, squash, and beans and raising livestock on their 70-acre (28-hectare) plot. But Pimentel wanted to show me another place, 15 minutes away by car. We followed yet another dirt road past miles of soy before turning onto a narrower track that traced the edge of a freshly plowed field -- the driveway to the farmhouse his grandfather had built in the shade of a large mango tree. This, Pimentel said, was where he had grown up. Four years ago, his father sold the farm to a stranger, who immediately cut down every tree. "In 30 seconds," he said, "they caused more devastation than a small farmer who's been on the land for 30 years." Pimentel couldn't have cared less

How to Get the Best Out of Exhibiting at a Wedding Fair I'm just gonna come out and say it...as a general rule, I'm not a huge fan of the wedding fair. A little controversial I know. My reason for this is not because I find them boring or a waste of time but because the people exhibiting aren't making me want to love it. Often they simply sit at their stands with a 'take it or leave it attitude' or they'll just thrust leaflets and samples at me like they're going out of fashion. This is both annoying as hell and a little bit terriflying. I don't think the wedding fair is dead just yet. There are hundreds of thousands of brides (and poor poor grooms)-to-be that attend these shows during their engagement. So, this week, I thought a little discussion and a few tips on how you can make wedding fairs work for you would be in order. Thank you to Heidi from The Alternative Wedding Fair , which is taking place in London this Sunday, for putting together this article.

August for the dozens left to bleed. When it is finished, when his captors unfurl his towel and wave it above his death, he will join those dead as they rise from their scarlet shadows toward a dream he sent his women to: Where the broken bodies of mother and wife will mend themselves and drift in clouds, whispering their love for him, their fingers longing to soothe his brow still barbed in pain. The chapel doors are chained and the parents cannot get at the poet to stop him from reading to their daughters who have rented him for the afternoon. One woman swears she saw him carrying a suitcase crammed with poems, some sticking out of the corners like underwear. The parents have rimmed the building and pound it with their fists, growing louder by the hour; and now the stained glass windows are crashing open with borrowed books and shoes; but the poet will not stop reading. The coeds climb one another to shield the poet who wants to read his whole valise of poems. Parents have reached the ledges and are poking at their daughters who moan in unison, straining to hear the poet. He goes on for still another hour and stops. He packs his poems and puts on his hat; he steps to the nearest window where a girl smiles and opens her legs for him; he wraps his arms around his poems and crawls through her before dropping to the lawn where he

I can write a book. It also helped that a friend of mine had gone back to college to get a degree in creative writing. She kinda normalized the idea of writing for me. I never considered writing anything but romance, though. It was what I loved to read. I'd always had romantic stories running around in my head, so I just dared to write them down. Pamela: I think it's incredible that the day you retired was also the day you got "The Call." It seems like destiny. Can you tell us about that experience? I can't imagine how that must have felt. Diane: It wasn't quite that serendipitous, but almost. I made the decision to retire and that next week I got The Call. The truly amazing event was how I made the decision to retire. I happened to be instant messaging at the same time as an Australian friend who is very spiritual. We never IM'd before, nor have we since. She convinced me to follow my dream, to retire even though I'd not sold yet. She convinced me that God wanted me (and all of us) to be happy. In my mind I made the decision right then and there.

Playing well: ten years of the Play Ethic Pat Kane There's nothing like the tenth anniversary of your own cultural meme to help you mark the passage of time. My Observer magazine cover article on The Play Ethic, titled " Play For Today ", first appeared on October 22, 2000.

President, your prep for the next debate need not consist of anything more than learning to pronounce three words: "Governor, you're lying." Let's replay some of Wednesday night's more jaw-dropping visits to the Land Where Facts Go to Die. "I don't have a $5 trillion tax cut. I don't have a tax cut of a scale you're talking about." OBAMA The Tax Policy Center analysis of your proposal for a 20 percent across-the-board tax cut in all federal income tax rates, eliminating the Alternative Minimum Tax, the estate tax and other reductions, says it would be a $5 trillion tax cut. BARTLET In other words ... OBAMA You're lying, Governor. BARTLET "I saw a study that came out today that said you're going to raise taxes by $3,000 to $4,000 on middle-income families." OBAMA The American Enterprise Institute found my budget actually would reduce the share of taxes that each taxpayer pays to service the debt by $1,289.89 for taxpayers earning in the $100,000 to $200,000 range.

You would be hard pressed to fins an Icelander as badly off as I am. What will we do with all these people - not just refugees - after our resources run out. Look at how Iceland handles these issues of resources and the way they are capitalised to support and care for its population. Then consider how generous we could be if we adopted the Iceland model. Budovski : 22 Dec 2010 4:53:14pm Some good questions there, no doubt this as every other discussion on population will be deliberately ignored by almost all media and almost every single politician. Dick Smith and Kelvin Thompson are the few voices championing what 80% of us think. If Australia's economic growth relies purely on a raw increase on consumers then our future is very very bleak. We will erode our standard of living, our resources and our natural environment. We need innovation in our economy not just more heads. I am also sick and tired of seeing the 'racist' label stuck on to anyone who wants to see a reduction in immigration levels and a stabilization of population. I find our attitude to refugees primitive and embarrassing, we could be taking a higher number of refugees and a lot less 'skilled' migrants. chalkie : 22 Dec 2010 4:47:46pm This article looks at the mainstream population but how influential is the newly naturalised vote?

Linda | 7.30.09 @ 6:10PM Getting rid of Obama will leave us with Biden. Remove Biden and we have Pelosi. Robert Byrd (president pro-tem of the Senate), then Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Secretary of the Treasury Timothy Geithner. There's a long road to hoe there when you start talking about removing people. I think the real answer is to work very hard to make sure that the mid-term elections restore some balance of power to the government. Not that Republicans are all that much better, but at least we might be able to slow down this huge snowball of leftist control that has been unleashed on our country.

Know the Rules All masters must be aware of the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea. A summary of these rules is given in this section. Safe speed All vessels must travel at a safe speed at all times. A safe speed cannot be expressed as a maximum or minimum number of knots because it varies with circumstances and conditions. The master (skipper) must continually assess the safety of the vessel's speed. A safe speed is one at which the vessel can be stopped in time to avoid any danger which arises suddenly. In judging a safe speed the master must consider a number of issues including: Visibility -- drive slowly in rain, fog, mist, smoke or glare. Special caution is required at night because many potential hazards may not be lit or may not be easily seen. Background shore lighting may confuse you. Other vessels -- slow down on busy waterways and when near moored or anchored vessels, working vessels showing special signals and large vessels which have difficulties in manoeuvring. Navigation hazards -- slow down in shallow areas or in unfamiliar waterways. Water depth can vary and change frequently. Not all hazards may be marked or lit and signs, buoys, marks or lights may have shifted or been vandalised. Wind, waves and currents -- may adversely affect the manoeuvrability of a vessel. Manoeuvrability of the vessel -- stopping and turning ability depends on the speed travelled, wind and current and the boat's design (such as hull shape,

The problem is that from this, it does not follow that I am an atheist. All that follows is that I am a rival theist, which is exactly what I pointed out in the post. It's not merely a matter of not believing in their god[s] (which I may -- see above -- I just disagree about them being God[s]), rather it is a matter of me being a rival theist.

Atheists conflate terms when they make this argument. You've yet to offer any evidence of me being an atheist. Really, your only points are "you don't believe in other religions."

B'nai Brith's Challenge to Canada's Charter of Rights and Freedoms By Arthur Topham April 1, 2009 In 1982, following passing by the British Parliament, Canada's Constitution Act, 1982 became the official law of the land. PART I of the Act became known as the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Its stated purpose was to ensure protection for all Canadians of certain basic rights and freedoms deemed necessary and essential to maintain our free and democratic society. Section 1 of the Act was the Guarantee of our Rights and Freedoms and Section 2 was the list of our Fundamental Freedoms . Section 2 states: Everybody has the following fundamental freedoms (as outlined in four sub-sections known as a, b, c and d). Section 2(b) reads: "Freedom of thought, belief, opinion and expression, including freedom of the press and other media of communication;" Twenty three years later, on November 25, 2005, due to specific amendments made to Section 13 of the Canadian Human Rights Act in the immediate aftermath of 9/11/2001 -- amendments that for the most part were hastily and prematurely inserted in conjunction with Canada's Anti-Terrorism Act of November 2001 -- Marc Lemire, the owner and webmaster of www.freedomsite.org and his lawyer Barbara Kulaszka were forced by circumstance to challenge efforts which they deemed inimical to the fundamental freedoms contained in Section 2(b). This was the beginning of the first Constitutional challenge* to the notorious Section 13 of the Canadian Human Rights Act ,

which was taught to me by an engineer(!) and was used by him in the construction of some seriously well know buildings: PROBABILITY x THREAT = RISK Low probability of a small threat being realised, you are dealing with low risk situations. High probability of a small threat being realised, you are dealing with something you must take more seriously. For example, if assessment of a building plan concluded a real, but low, probability that the building will fall down with people in it, you would revisit the plans! If there was a high probability that the building's cosmetic exterior would not maintain its shiny appeal because of weather damage, you may decide to just roll with it and build in a maintenance programme. The problem situation which bedevils decision-making around policing and mental health is: very low probability of a significant threat being realised . For example, there are over a million arrests a year in the United Kingdom and in that context, deaths in custody or following police contact are statistically rare. Having said that, there are some obvious warning signs and predictors and drugs and alcohol, resistance and mental ill-health are right up there with the best of them. The investigation and / or prosecution of offenders with mental health problems is as complex as it gets but it is often not time critical. Police officers and CPS are weighing up, the strength of the evidence, the victim's wishes, the public interest in preventing any further offending

Hardly the utopia you'd have us believe, as a quick glance at any local council estate will reveal. Local authorities - many of whom handed over arms length control of their housing stock to housing associations merely to avoid Right To Buy legislation, while retaining practical control - have a notorious record as landlords. The appallingly bad service they provide to tenants is frequently equal to the most unscrupulous private lndlord. Indeed, in many cases they are actually worse,since some of the legislation preventing would-be Rachmans from screwing tenants does not apply to public ownership. Rents are increased frequently because councils and housing associations know that the government will pick up most of the bill in the form of Housing Benefit - fine for the unemployed, but punishing for those struggling to hold down low paid jobs. Corruption during building and repair contracts is rife and the unions control the way things are run. As a result tenants can wait, not weeks, not months, but years for repairs to their home to be completed. And the cost of repairing a door or window can be three times higher than the prices charged by private companies. If low cost social

In our thread Sparklines: theory and practice , there are (at the top of the thread) data tables with sparklines that report daily and longterm financial data; one such table shows 14,000 numbers, many of them accurate to only 2 digits (not much for financial data) under the philosophy of "Try to be approximately right rather than exactly wrong." The short-run weekly jitters and non-reports need to be smoothed out to see (and compare with)the long-run trends. Weekly data cooperate with the notorious recency bias, whereby way too much weight is given to the most recent piece of data, just because it is recent. These weekly reports should be in the context of longer run information to reduce the chances that analysis will be dancing around only with today's news. The list style, surely one damn thing after another here, is merely descriptive and thus preliminary to policy analysis. That analysis might have been done on the other slides or maybe this report is merely meant as a scorecard.

Unexpected Review from GOOD READS by Jill Smith that just turned up, Thank you Jill for the following. "Ahmed Ackbar is 13, through his diary letters to family back home; we journey with him in Australia with his Uncle Kamran and two fellow Afghan cameleers. He is the youngest cameleer joining an English explorer's journey across a continent. The country he crosses is so unlike his Afghan homeland, yet shares a desert that camels are best equipped to cross. Although arriving in Australia speaking Pashto his native language and very little English. He quickly learns to increase his meager knowledge of English, so helping his cameleers cope with the strain of dealing with infidels. Ahmed works hard and proves to be a valuable member of the expedition as an interpreter. The culture is a shock, as people he comes to treat as friends, do things that are not acceptable to his religion. They are equally tolerated by some of the party, thought of as odd by others, because they stop for prayers, and are despised by another. At one point when they reach an isolated station to rest, Ahmed befriends the three children living there. He finds himself playing competitive games with the boy and allowing the girls to ride his camel. Just being alone with a female is not something he wants his Uncle to discover as it is taboo.

boy all get more girls chasing them than the class clown? People don't generally recognize or articulate what they want very well. This is true for employers, because they write job descriptions with the perfect candidate in mind, but usually they hire someone they feel good about and would like to work next to, regardless of the qualifications. Surprise, surprise, but those people often do quite well at the job. You can train the skills, but you can't train the personality. Unfortunately, most talent searches are begun as if the opposite was true. The term "networking" is often misunderstood, and this is why people make comments like the one above: "What if you don't know anyone who can introduce you to the hiring manager?" Networking isn't about calling out the people you know and asking them who they know they can get you a job. Networking is about calling up the people you know, and asking them who they know that you can meet and learn from. You ask those people the same question. You asked ON their contacts the same question. You continue meeting people, expanding your network, as long as you can. Keep good records of what industry and company people work in, and you'll know who to call when that perfect job comes your way. Networking works really, really well because so few people do it properly. If everyone did it, It wouldn't work well at all. Mary... pray? I don't know. May be move so you

Tuesday poem: My lover Jim November 5, 2012 My lover Jim is ramrod straight, and flexible as steel. Once he's on top, it's hard to make him shift. He makes me sigh, and grunt and feel pain, though sometimes I can just lift him before he renders me 2D. I have swooned and swallowed blood. Nausea breaks like a fainting sea, and I have to stop before it floods. My legs at such weird wide angles kicking the heavy sky; or squats: my hair sweated into ratty tangles, and arms tied in barbarous knots. Knees squeak like fearful rodents in the famous verse by Burns, Robbie as I scythe myself into components. He's more an addiction than just a hobby. Jim's real charms show up in rear view when I'm alone with a looking glass -- four times a week between one, and two, makes miracles of muscle unsurpassed. P.S. Cottier My legions of loyal readers will have noticed that I just took slightly more than a week off. There were many reasons for this; a little disappointment here; a mini-existential crisis there. But my attending the gym four times a week had something to do with it too. Now that poem above is something of an exaggeration. I have never fainted at the gym, although I have come close.

Then Waters creates a chart attempting to show what causes what. The Net explosion is changing the relationship between people and news. It has caused bloggers to have a role in politics and a significant effect on the press. Distributed knowledge has enabled both amateur and professional bloggers, blurring brand. The effect is to enable real-time checking of main stream media, which journalism is only just beginning to appreciate. Scandals exposed by online real-time checking, exacerbated by the media's reluctance to concede the points, has caused brand erosion. This, in turn, has made readers and viewers wonder if there ever was a neutral observer and a disinterested account.

Places to go, people to see, conversations to be had. All stemming from the imagination and personal experience of a child. Self initiated play is important for children's learning. Play is the means by which children's experiences are processed and made meaningful. These 'pretend' actions and conversations are an important part of a young child's learning. It is why Immy has open access to recycleables and art materials , both of which she regularly accesses in her play and which assist her as she learns to make independent choices, to combine materials in different ways, and to represent her ideas symbolically.

Interview with Anthony Marwood and Aleksandar Madzar -- part 1 Anthony Marwood Their playing is graceful and impressively accurate, but there is also something more. Anthony Marwood and Aleksandar Madzar hold the Wigmore Hall audience spellbound for the entire duration of their concert together. They bring a level of subtlety to Schubert, Schumann and Brahms that is rare, with an empathy that is understated but striking. 'It's funny,' reflects Marwood later, in the carpeted quiet of Wigmore Hall's subterranean interval rooms. 'Sometimes you meet people in life. And somehow you feel that the other person brings out something in yourself that you didn't know was there. With Sasha I feel that there's a kind of musical connection of the soul. The kind of conversations we have are delicious and inspiring and interesting, and the playing is a natural extension of that.' Madzar has had to dash for the Eurostar after the Wigmore Hall concert. We meet later at the other end of that journey, in his Brussels apartment. He expresses a similar sentiment. 'If you are going to work with somebody regularly, you need to be on the same wavelength,' he says. 'Musicians can be very different. Some can rehearse till kingdom come. Others think they play better if things aren't decided down to the last detail.' 'We do work in a rather similar way,' comments Marwood, after a roundabout description of something that sounds unnervingly intense. Are they both, perhaps, a little obsessive? 'Yes,' says Marwood.

Less numerous groups of immigrants, such as persons and their dependents who legalized under the Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA) of 1986, parolees, and diversity-visa lottery winners, are examples of "other immigrants." In 2008, there were 57,979 "other immigrants" who accounted for 5.2 percent of all lawful permanent immigrants. Seventy-two percent of the "other immigrants" in 2008 (41,761) were people who received their immigrant visas through the Diversity Immigrant Visa Program, also known as the Green Card Lottery, run by the US State Department. The State Department received more than 9.1 million qualified applications for the 2009 Diversity Lottery. The Immigration Act of 1990 established the Diversity Visa Lottery (also known as the Green Card Lottery) to allow entry to immigrants from countries with low rates of immigration to the United States. The act states that no more than 55,000 diversity visas are made available each fiscal year. Of the 55,000 visas, 5,000 have to be used for applicants under the Nicaraguan and Central America Relief Act of 1997, thus reducing the available number to 50,000. Applicants who registered for the 2009 lottery (between October and December 2007) were selected at random from over 9.1 million qualified entries.

the Patent Office in Bern, Einstein-Maric" and this has recently been taken as evidence of a collaborative relationship. However, according to Alberto A. Martnez of the Center for Einstein Studies at Boston University, Joffe only ascribed authorship to Einstein, as he believed that it was a Swiss custom at the time to append the spouse's last name to the husband's name. Whatever the truth, the extent of her influence on Einstein's work is a highly controversial and debated question. In 1903, Einstein's position at the Swiss Patent Office had been made permanent, though he was passed over for promotion until he had "fully mastered machine technology". He obtained his doctorate under Alfred Kleiner at the University of Zurich after submitting his thesis "A new determination of molecular dimensions" ("Eine neue Bestimmung der Molekldimensionen") in 1905. Annus Mirabilis Papers During 1905, in his spare time, he wrote four articles that participated in the foundation of modern physics, without much scientific literature to which he could refer or many scientific colleagues with whom he could discuss the theories. Most physicists agree that three of those papers (on Brownian motion, the photoelectric effect, and special relativity) deserved Nobel Prizes. Only the paper on the photoelectric effect would be mentioned by the Nobel committee in the award; at the time of the award, it had the most unchallenged experimental evidence behind it, although the Nobel committee expressed the opinion that Einstein's other work would be confirmed in due course.

Have any Canuck fans given the thought of both teams trading their 1st round picks in this deal? Assuming the Maple Leafs 1st round pick is not protected then the Canucks would get at least a top 10 pick if the Toronto misses the Playoffs. However Toronto would still get a 1st round pick from Vancouver between 20-30 overall, assuming the Canucks make the Playoffs. Personally speaking I still want the Maple Leafs 1st round pick to be conditional on them making the Playoffs. However is there any way the Canucks can also give up there 1st round pick, so both teams still end up with one.

Decoding the original message The original message was comprised of several 'sections', each depicting a particular aspect of 'our civilisation'. At the top are binary representations of the numbers one through to ten, interestingly showing the numbers eight, nine and ten as two columns. This shows anyone decoding the message that we can specify that numbers too large to be written on a single line can be 'carried over'. The next section contains the binary values 1,6,7,8 and 15 which indicate the atomic numbers of the primary elements for life on Earth; Hydrogen, Carbon, Nitrogen, Oxygen and Phosphorus respectively. The larger section of three rows, represents the formulas for the sugars and bases in the nucleotides of DNA. Beneath this is a graphical representation of our DNA 'double helix' either side of a 'straight vertical bar' which indicates the number of nucleotides in DNA. Directly below the DNA double helix is a small representation of us - humans - with a body and two arms and two legs (like a little stick man). On the left is a binary value of the population of Earth. This can be calculated as roughly 4.29 billion, which is roughly the population of the world, back in 1974.

soon have found that the Parliament Act was not sufficient and that the peculiar merit, from the Conservative point of view, of having a House of Lords meant the possibility of forcing an Election when the Conservatives wanted it and not the Liberals. We believe that those powers are obsolete and should be restricted. We know that the great majority of the people, while there has been no great excitement or controversy, believe that it is anomalous that the House of Lords should have these powers. The very slackness in the House today shows that hon. Members opposite know it, too. I support the Second Reading of the Bill.  Question put, "That the words proposed to be left out stand part of the Question."

The money market is a contrived market. Speculative and hedging markets are nothing but rorts. The solution is to only allow trading in the market if you have a geniune need for the commodity. Good luck with that. The commodification of carbon is a reasonable solution. I beleive Mals analogy is a little missed place, it's more along the lines of a tax on something like smoking. Increasing the price does reduce consumption, but not necessarily across the board. @Dovif, Europe manufacturing moving offshore is not just due to carbon pricing there are a wealth of other reasons far more significant. I also think people are forgetting that the Libs have a policy of direct action that either will result in a cut to the budget in other areas or an increase in other taxes rather than the creation of a new tax. Either way action on climate change is going to cost us, and arguably no action on climate change is going to cost us, just in the future.

meet a lot of fantastic people in fantastic places. The work is project-based but you can have several different workstreams at the same time, so it never gets boring. There's something for everyone too, from cloud computing in the finance sector to IT delivery. The thing about consultancy experience is that you don't lose it. I've found it's helped me in a wide range of things, both inside and outside the work market. But why is there no woman's view of the profession given that an awful lot of us work, or have worked, in consultancy? Female graduates also out-earn male peers at entry level. Yet many recent articles here about decently-paid careers only spoke to men. (Discussion of downshifting into insecure, erratic income paths that don't challenge the boys' rights to either their employed jobs or their male provider role is perfectly fine, of course). Therefore content such as "something for everyone" being "from cloud computing to IT delivery" reflects a narrow and misleading world view, instead of the broad vision you expect in the field. I should add that management consultancy does not require any hard skills. You could actually go straight from a good set of GCSEs to working as a consultant (if they'd have you) - main requirements - report writing, common sense, and an ability to use Google, excel and word. These consultancies do the work that people in government / nhs / town councils should really be doing. I worked in a small consultancy

are a bit tighter, but still cover all the bases. I think in the data collection part is worth asking everything that might be useful. Then we look at the results, and can choose to focus only on the signage issue if we want. What you don't want is to say 'I wish we had asked more questions' later on- its better to ask a few more at the beginning, even if you don't use alll the data in the end. If you want to do a top ten/ name and shame ranking with % points you do need to have a bit of gradiation between have signs/ have no signs. Only problem with focussing solely on the aisles being explicitly labelled is that the retailers solution will be to just remove the signs, and still the toys will be segregated. Much as I get that they may suggest the idea of aisles being aimed at boys/girls is subjective and in our minds, there is no way on earth the big retailers don't psychoanalyse exactly what the layout suggests to the average consumer. I know when I worked in large chain stores you were given very specific instructions on what to put where. Barely any items were placed without careful consideration. I like the survey, I think that it covers all the bases without getting bogged down in too much information. I especially like question 4, as I think that will be the best way to make people think.

those pictures of fish, borscht and lentils are also a stealthy way to show kids the huge variety of foods kids eat (roasted guinea pigs in Peru notwithstanding). You can't help but understand something about the world when you see that kids in a refugee camp are getting a mug of porridge and in France they're getting a four-course meal. It's very much a cultural construct that children need kids' menus or that you have to serve them a special meal because they won't eat what we eat. I've done it too. Which lunch do you want to eat? I'd have Brazil. I like rice and beans. And there's mango on a stick in Mexico cut to look like a flower. That's a little too close to the perfect bento box lunches out there that make moms feel bad. I can see the attraction of colourful boxes that make it more fun. But I'm not going to be making a bento box with the face of Gene Simmons for my family. That's a little over the top for me. So what did your kids take to school today? Today was sandwiches. Yesterday was more interesting: pasta with tomato sauce. One had carrots, one had red peppers. One had grapes and one had oranges because that's what was in the fridge. Chocolate chip cookie. Water. My kids are thrilled if there's something homemade like a cookie or a muffin in there.

likely to focus on the economy, and rightly so. And I'm here to tell you and your listeners that of all the areas in which the president's influence is overrated, the economy is probably No. 1. I'd like you here to listen to Austan Goolsbee, who's a former chairman of President Obama's Council of Economic Advisers. Austan Goolsbee: I think the world vests too much power -- certainly in the president, probably in Washington in general -- for its influence on the economy, because most all of the economy has nothing to do with the government. Ryssdal: I love the way he talks, by the way. Sounds like a mafia guy, doesn't he? But wait listen, you were around in the '92 election? You were paying attention, yes? Dubner: It's a fantastic campaign slogan -- you get to brag about how you'll raise employment and lower gas prices -- as if, Kai, there's some magical set of buttons in the Oval Office that you get to push once you're elected. A 'More Jobs' button. But as Austan Goolsbee points out, the president's ability to actually change the shape and direction and velocity of the macroeconomy is extremely limited. Ryssdal: Let me go back then to the actual politicians who say otherwise. You had Clinton and now you've got Mitt Romney -- former CEO, a business guy. Goes out, every stump speech he makes and says, 'I know what to do in the economy. I've been there, I've created jobs, I've

Trending Now: How to deal with work-related stress February 2, 2011, 12:25 pm Realbuzz If you think you are suffering from work-related stress, or want to avoid being stressed at work in the future, then Yahoo! Lifestyle's guide to coping with stress in the workplace is just what you need. Yahoo! Lifestyle's guide to dealing with work-related stress will tell you how to recognise the signs of stress and offers tips on how to deal with work-related stress. It is estimated that the majority of us spend around a quarter of our adult working lives actually in work -- and while it can provide us with some job satisfaction and a sense of purpose, the workplace can also be a setting of real stress and worry. 'Stress in the workplace' refers to an adverse reaction we may get due to unrealistic demands being placed on us at work. While some stress is an accepted part of work and can be a good motivator, excessive pressure can lead to unproductive stress -- which will undermine your performance and potentially make you ill. What are the causes of work-related stress? Everyone is under some form of pressure in the workplace. From the cleaner, who is expected to live up to the exacting standards of the company, to the manager, on whom the ultimate responsibility and direction of the company rests -- all have various daily problems to overcome. If these problems become overwhelming, then it is more likely that you'll become stressed.

too far away from your thoughts -- so make sure you socialise with a variety of people! * Exercise -- Regular physical activity can help to reduce stress levels, as it's a good way of forgetting about work and can trigger brain chemicals which improve mood. Not only will you feel fitter, healthier and happier by doing exercise, you'll also rid your body of the damaging adrenaline which is released into your body when you're stressed. Choose an activity that you enjoy doing so that you're more likely to keep it up. * Take the weight off your mind -- Confiding in trusted work colleagues, friends and relatives is a useful way of ridding yourself of stressful feelings. Other people give you a different perspective on problems and help you to find potential solutions -- and you will feel much better after getting something off your mind. * Avoid unhelpful 'crutches' -- Stay away from artificial coping devices such as alcohol, smoking, and high caffeine intake. These only succeed in increasing stress levels -- as they are stimulants -- rather than calming the body and mind down. Eating a well-balanced diet at regular times will give you all the levels of energy you need to see you through your day -- without you having to depend on stimulants. * Celebrate your achievements -- Don't be too hard on yourself, and avoid spending too much time thinking about what you didn't get done today and what you have to do in

give things a proper groove and all that sort of thing. Yeah for sure. I guess it was exactly the same point when I transitioned from listening to the jungle stuff more into house. It was my friend James Broomfield, he was the guy who kind of got me into listening to house because we went to university together and when we got to university, I was still playing jungle and I was getting booked quite a lot at university parties, but people were already fed up because I always played the same tunes, and arguably also because they were all a little bit less metropolitan and a little bit less at home with the fact the music was quite urban -- I think a lot of people in university were just a bit scared of that, really. So James had gotten really into house music and was going to see Tenaglia, Sasha, Digweed. You know, he'd really got into going to, like -- Big boys. Exactly. And listening to Renaissance mixes, and he was playing all this house. Everyone was loving it, and he was basically nicking all my gigs, and everyone was more interested in him, and I was like, "Shit, I've really got to get on with this house music because everyone's really bored of jungle." [laughs] "And I'm just getting all the dudes coming to my parties." [laughs] Yeah, exactly. It wasn't the cool thing any more so I kind of got into all these guys

be sent out to you with your trip-specific info pack on confirmation of your booking. Please note however that this list doesn't cover what medications to bring. We recommend you carry personal medical items for managing common minor ailments such as colds, diarrhoea, blisters and sore throats etc. Travellers who take regular medication should take an appropriate supply. Asthma sufferers should ensure that they have an adequate supply of their routine medicine, as some major cities have high levels of smog. How much luggage can I take? As a general rule, pack light but bring all the essentials. Leave some space in your luggage -- you'll no doubt want to bring home some souvenirs from the communities and cities you visit. There will be occasions when you will be carrying your luggage on and off public transport, so you should consider travelling with a backpack or a soft duffel bag. Suitcases are okay on some of our trips, but not as practical. Each airline has specific rules as to luggage allowances -- check directly with them or ask your travel consultant to confirm for you. Will I be able to do any laundry? Some of the places we stay have laundry facilities, and those that don't may have laundry facilities nearby, especially within cities. It is also a good idea to bring some 'travel wash', and a travel clothes line. This will help you cut down on packing space, and can be particularly useful if you are on a multi-day

Open Question Have question about my toothe just got pulled out by a dentist? Yes, I just got my toothe pulled out, its bleeding still after 2 hours. It was a free clinic place that pulled my toothe by a dentist. sorry if I cant spell write I dont feel good. anyways they didnt give me any antibiotics or pain medicine and Im very afriad. I have to go to work in the morning its my first week at work and they gave me weekends they are training me at a nursing home to do laundry, it is very busy work and hard but I needed it. they gave me today off so I could go get the toothe pulled and then monday I get to stay at home. What can I do to take care of my mouth so it will not get infected and how can I keep the pain down while at work and home? Ive got tylenol will that work? Answers (4) They should have wrote you a presciption for an antibiotic and even Tylenol 3's would have helped you more. Is there a way you could call the free clinic and ask about that? Try to get some Advil, as Advil would help out more for the pain. A person can safely take 600mg. I have a prescription for Advil and they are for 600mg. That would be a cheap way to hopefully get some pain relief.

its confusing until i know for definate. It will be my 2nd child but iv got all symtoms now that i didnt have until 9 weeks gone with my 1st iya, it may still be too early to have any pregnancy symptoms. Based on your LMP, you would only be about 5 weeks pregnant if you are pregnant. Symptoms for most first time moms don't start until the 5th or 6th week, sometimes even later. With my firstborn, the only symptom besides the missed period I experienced was fatigue, and that wasn't until the 5th week. Take a home pregnancy test and see what your results are. Good luck! iya 2 weeks ago i had my period on 11th october , today it is 14th still i didn't get my piriod, i think i am expecting but still i am not getting any pregnancy symptoms. please advice me... Kayla, I can't really give you an answer based on that information. It does seem like an awfully long time between those two dates, but unless I know your last menstrual period, there's no way of knowing when you possibly may have ovulated and when you'd be expecting your next period. If you have missed your period and then you took the tests, it's possible that you may have tested too early. Wait a few more days and test again. If you're not getting a result from the tests, you may need to contact your doctor to see what's going on. Thanks

ever actually tried to put a number to show the number of people who agree with them, like a petition does? Quote: I'm also trying to petition them to start doing something -- to release as downloads uncompressed music in 16 Bit & 24 Bit format. I've already explained why the 24 bit format is pointless for consumer applications. If you're arguing for linear files rather than data-reduced files, again, I would support that. But I would suggest that that is an entirely separate argument from the loudness wars and it should be tackled separately. Unlike the loudness wars case, there are very reasonable arguments to support good quality data-reduced files for download. Quote: I don't know if enforcing a standard is the way forward, I always think that if they can be encouraged then that is the way forward. Lots of people have tried encouragement. Mastering engineers have encouraged artists and record company suits. It's to worse, or better. The only solution left is to force people to work in a different way, and that enforced loudness normalisation in TV, radio and, hopefully, iTunes will do exactly that. Quote: ... the 24Bit version sounds a lot better, wider soundstage, more dynamic, but most I would say, it sounds more fluid. I'm guessing you're now going to tell me that this is because it's from two different master tapes or something. Yep. 24 bit files offer no improvement in soundstage width, or mix dynamics, or timing fluidity... So if it
