Plus the disco music video is slightly different. I didn't know exactly how to approach this AMV, but I thought that it would need to rely more heavily on effects since it's so repetitive and it's not a story-driven AMV (for the most part). I'm still new at creating heavily-edited effects. Hmm, I would link to the clip of it on YouTube but I don't think it's available in my country and it's not coming up on the search engines. :/Anyway, I guess all you need to know about the DISCO version is that everything at the beginning was tinted green, with a strobe light effect meant to resemble camera flashes, the contrast was large so there was a lot of black in the picture, and the camera moved as if it were showing the scene from one of the paparazzi. I tried to recreate that effect. Also, I followed the Ermac and AbsoluteDestiny's guide with the | NARRATIVE | NA PB | 3,742,938 |
light and could be used to record the images. The discovery of the century It is usual to date the birth of photography to the introduction of the Daguerreotype in 1839, but it could be said to have been essentially a reinvention - most of the technique was already known. The lens was known, the camera was known, and the reaction of silver salts when exposed to light had been known for a hundred years. What made it new was that everything was brought together, while the problem of making the silver salts sufficiently sensitive to light was solved, and a method was found of fixing the pictures so that they did not darken further when exposed to more light. If you tried to patent this under today's rules, it would be a matter of arguing for a second class patent, or a patent on a new application of an already known technique. Still, contemporaries saw photography as the invention of the century, a reasonable view considering the role photography would come to play. The importance of the picture Before photography's breakthrough, pictures were rare and exclusive. When King Gustaf III of Sweden employed Pehr Kraft the Elder to paint the portrait of Bellman, his pay was the equivalent of the price of a luxury car today. Accurate portraits and other sophisticated pictures were reserved for the upper classes. I was reminded of the real importance of this when studying some eighteenth-century texts a couple of years ago. One text | IN | IN | 655,612 |

poem on a very bad night. I am grieving of course, which doesn't help, but you'll be pleased to know the bedtimes are going much much better and actually since writing that comment (it must have had some cathartic effect) I took a step back and just, quite simply, chilled. I stopped yelling, I stopped threatening her with the stool (which was clearly driving her nuts) and I have also tried to stop caring about what happens if she never falls asleep by herself. I'm watching my diet and caffeine intake a bit more to try and ascertain whether my irritability (which often feels almost physical when it manifests) is related. Elaine I am so glad to hear from you. I'm so glad too, to hear that things are going better for you. I totally agree that to just take a step back and chill is a great idea.

start seeing that bigger picture it becomes more easier, I think initially the first hurdle is almost getting started and be like 'right we've got to start a new record', but now the balls rolling definitely, its exciting. How does it differ in style from your first album? I know it sounds clichd, but what we're doing is maturing to our own sound a bit more. With the last record we tried to experiment a lot with blending melodic sections with heavy sections, and I think we're going to add another kind of axis to it with dark parts and almost quite 'poppy' parts as well, we just want to pull something together that is just more honed basically. We're finding our feet more and more when we write and we're also pushing things where the set is concerned and the sounds, like we're looking into more electronic instruments as well and just pushing what we can do as a three-piece whilst keeping it all live. Playing everything live but just using drum-pads and samplers to really fill out what we do live and to what we do on the next record. When I saw you at Y not Festival you said that you'd just returned from a US tour, how did that go? It was awesome.

2004 a tipster reported that Apple expressed early interest in the center, but has backed away, perhaps until the second phase, or until revenue figures are firmer for the mall. Since then, no action so probably cancelled . Qianmen Street - Beijing (China) - During a May 2004 meeting with analysts from stock broker Merrill Lynch, Ron Johnson said the company was considering a retail store in China. During an Oct. 22, 2007 financial conference call, CFO Peter Oppenheimer confirmed a Beijing store by summer 2008 . Job listings appeared Nov. 1, 2007. In early Feb. 2008 the location was identified as Qianmen Street, which was being renovated and was to re-open re-open June 8th. However, in April 2008 the Chinese government said the street would not be finished in time to allow Apple to renovate and build out its store space. So Apple switched its first to the Sanlitun District (store there opened July 19, 2008). This store location is probably not active as of mid-2012.

Something so beautiful Hello lovely ladies, So sorry to still be unable to post much....Sunday, the day that would have been Kate's 1st brithday, was a peaceful day....as her birthday was in July, the lead up to the day was so painful but then the actual day so calm, so serene, so beautiful. I took my son to the beach and the sun was glorious as he played so happily ...... i wanted to spend the day forming precious and beautiful memories to reflect back on, as we would have done had all this just been a hideous nightmare and Kate had been born with a healthy heart last November. I spend every single day trying to make Kate proud of me and I hope I managed this on Sunday....her medical due date was the 17th so this Saturday will be another day that we do special things to remember her.....

understood his role in the united team, ever, not from the time he started. I just don't like him as a player. He is definitely past it now. Ferguson after the game was as gracious as he is going to get in saying at least they were beaten by a team playing football. I don't agree Berbatov is a waste of space, but I think he still has a bit to learn about the United style. Rooney, Ronaldo seem to showing the imaturity of young winners. They think they have done it all and want to be stylish now, instead of just getting the damn job done. I hate to say it, but I think the league could be already decided. Unless Fergson sticks now with Rafel de Silva, and they can get 9 points from the next 3 matches with Liverpool Chelsea and Arsenal, but at present I don't see it happening.

Miracles , the world is ending not with a bang so much as a long, drawn-out whimper. And it turns out the whimper can be a lot harder to cope with. The Earth's rotation slows, gradually stretching out days and nights and subtly affecting the planet's gravity. The looming apocalypse parallels the adolescent struggles of 10-year-old Julia, as her comfortable suburban life succumbs to a sort of domestic deterioration. Julia confronts her parents' faltering marriage, illness, the death of a loved one, her first love, and her first heartbreak. Karen Thompson Walker is a gifted storyteller. Her language is precise and poetic, but style never overpowers the realism she imbues to her characters and the slowing Earth they inhabit. Most impressively, Thompson Walker has written a coming-of-age tale that asks whether it's worth coming of age at all in a world that might end at any minute. Like the best stories about the end of the world, The Age of Miracles is about the existence of hope and whether it can prevail in the face of uncertainty. -- Kevin Nguyen Q&A with Karen Thompson Walker Q. In The Age of Miracles, you envision a natural phenomenon that threatens the entire world. This "slowing" is global, yet you decided to focus on Julia. Why? A. Julia's voice--the voice of a young woman looking back on her adolescence--came into my head as soon as I had the idea of the slowing. It was the only way I could imagine writing the book. | IP | IP DS | 1,115 |
If both copies of a person's HD gene contain 26 or fewer CAG repeats they will not develop HD and nor will any of their children (or their children's children and so on). 2.Gene-positive: If at least one copy of a person's HD gene contains 40 or more CAG repeats they will develop HD in their lifetime and each of their children have a 50% risk of inheriting HD. 3.'Reduced penetrance' range: People with a HD gene containing between 36 and 39 repeats are in the 'reduced penetrance' range. Some people in this range will develop symptoms of the disease, while others won't and there is still a risk of their children inheriting the disease. 4.'Intermediate alleles' range: People in this range have repeat lengths between 27 and 35 CAGs. People with an intermediate allele will not develop HD themselves, but there may be a reduced risk of HD developing in their children. If Tom's at-risk parent has been tested and is gene-negative then your unborn grandchild has no chance of inheriting Huntington's Disease. However, if they are showing no symptoms but have not been tested then they may be gene-negative but there is also still a chance that they may fall within one of the other three categories. If that is the case, Tom would be at risk (50% chance or less) of inheriting the faulty gene and your unborn grandchild would have a 25% chance or less.

of the dozens of "original" storylines I've thought up over the years. But, no one can ever make something truly original because of the perfectly worded quote, "Standing on the shoulders of giants." I get that by original you mean not based on any existing material specifically, but there will inevitably always be elements that can be traced back to something before. To name but a few of the most successful "original" titles: Star Wars -- inspired by Flash Gordon, Dune, Hidden Fortress; Lord of the Rings -- inspired by Arthurian legend, Beowulf, Scandinavian and Celtic mythologies; Indiana Jones -- Spielberg wanted to make a Bond movie, Lucas already had a semi-similar story inspired by 1930s serials, Golden Age adventure films and Westerns with a little flavouring of rumoured Nazi Occultist experiments. But for your story to be a million percent original it would have to break the rules of physics and be written not on paper and in words but via some sort of gaseous melange extruded from the creation glands of a Saturnian Story-Lizard.

The city to which it was sent was famed for its wealth and commerce, which were chiefly due to its situation between the Ionian and gean Seas on the isthmus connecting the Peloponese with Greece. In Paul's time it was the capital of the province Achaia and the seat of the Roman proconsul (Ac 18:12). The state of morals in it was notorious for debauchery, even in the profligate heathen world; so much so that "to Corinthianize" was a proverbial phrase for "to play the wanton"; hence arose dangers to the purity of the Christian Church at Corinth. That Church was founded by Paul on his first visit (Ac 18:1-17). He had been the instrument of converting many Gentiles (1Co 12:2), and some Jews (Ac 18:8), notwithstanding the vehement opposition of the countrymen of the latter (Ac 18:5), during the year and a half in which he sojourned there.

Thing Six: Things Are Sort Of Meh For Jamie Dimon: Looks like Jamie Dimon's list of problems is only growing. His bank is getting sued by a community college district over its efforts to enforce an odd financing contract that the Peralta Community College District agreed to in 2006 when interest was much higher, according to Reuters. "JP Morgan Chase's plan would wrongly shift savings from interest rate declines away from taxpayers and to JP Morgan's bottom line," said a spokesman for the Bay Area community college district told Reuters . Meanwhile, Dimon is getting a little bit frustrated with the fact that he has to defend himself and his bank at every turn. In an interview with New York magazine, published Monday Dimon defended Wall Street and his criticism of financial regulation by articulately noting that "It's a free. Fucking. Country."

Increase in ventilation caused by aminophylline in the absence of changes in ventral medullary extracellular fluid pH and carbon dioxide tension. Abstract A study was designed to investigate the possibility that changes in ventral medullary extracellular fluid carbon dioxide tension (PCO2) and hydrogen ion (H+) concentration mediate the ventilatory stimulation induced by systemic administration of aminophylline. Six cats with peripheral chemodenervation (bilateral carotid sinus nerve and vagal neurotomy) were studied while anaesthetised with chloralose urethane and breathing spontaneously at a regulated, constant, and somewhat raised end tidal PCO2. Variables were measured during steady state normoxaemia and 10 and 30 minutes after administration of 17 mg/kg aminophylline (mean (SD) blood concentration of theophylline 14.2 (1.5) mg/l). Aminophylline resulted in a significant and considerable increase in minute ventilation to 155% and 167% above baseline at 10 and 30 minutes. Mean (SD) values for arterial PCO2 were 5.6 (0.6), 5.6 (0.6), and 5.4 (0.6) kPa at 0, 10, and 30 minutes. Values for the ventral medullary extracellular fluid PCO2 were 7.6 (1.1), 7.5 (1.0), and 7.4 (1.0) kPa and for H+ concentration 62.7 (9.3), 62.6 (9.3), and 63.5 (8.0) nmol/l at 0, 10, and 30 minutes. After aminophylline infusion the PCO2 and H+ concentration of the extracellular fluid did not differ significantly from baseline values. It is concluded that in spontaneously breathing, peripherally chemodenervated cats the considerable increase in ventilation that follows an infusion of aminophylline is not mediated by change in the ventral medullary extracellular fluid PCO2 or hydrogen ion concentration. | IN | IN RA | 1,428,800 |
point out, that even if you work solo, and, in a team, even before let's say "committing/submitting" your code... you can and should do a code review of your own code in your process. I know some people will say it is biased and some people just cannot see their own mistake. That is probably true for some people and to some extend, but in reality, there are a lot of people being able to do that and benefit from it. Of course someone might not get the benefit of peer feedback about how to do it better from an external source (including from "equal skill" developers). I still believe that skilled developers can improve their technique doing that. And for banal/common mistakes, they should be easier to spot on when looked separately from the main development process and since it is your code, it should be faster to go on. This should encourage you to develop good habits too when coding (if you are responsible for the code, you're the one that will scream about that lack of escaping/filtering/naming/etc. and you should develop habit to avoid those as much as possible). After finishing a development block, someone can and should just look at his whole output just like when we proof a text. For me it is common sense and it might be for your too, but you might be surprised, even among lot of "professional", the amount of people who submit code without testing, reviewing, etc. That being | HI | HI HT | 584,595 |

Medical diamorphine (chemically identical to heroin) is a white crystaline powder and old time doctor addicts existed quite happily for years on it. It's high time (pun only slightly intentional) that the drugs policy of the UK (along with other developed countries) was based on the principle of consumer protection, rather than prohibition; but that would require a government which actually recognised that it worked for the electorate, rather than for global corporations and pressure groups.

And here comes the question: I applied for padron a week ago (got a yellow and light greenish paper as a copy) with stample on it -> they told me I have to go national police to get certificate -> I did so -> there they told me - "you have to wait 2-3 weeks before you can get the residency certificate if you are not workin here" (I m not)... so I have to wait one more week I guess? now., want to know - does it have any drawbacks for me? mandatory stuff etc..? as I am not workin in spain, just residin and living from my saved money earned years ago...

She graduated to a one-room rural school, then escaped, via scholarship, to the University of Montana, where, still in her teens, she met and married her first husband. This Is Not the Ivy League is her account of what it was to be that girl, and then that woman -- pressured by husband and parents to be the conventional wife of the 1950s, persisting in her pursuit of an education, trailed by a reluctant husband and small children through graduate school, and finally entering the job market with a PhD in English only to find a whole new set of pressures and prejudices. This memoir is Blew's behind-the-scenes account of pursuing a career at a time when a woman's place in the world was supposed to have limits.

Apple making a TV just doesn't make sense. An add-on box like AppleTV? Sure. An actual television set? Not so much. There's no way Apple could compete in the current television market with the thin margins, variety of models, and price points. If Apple tries to get into the TV game, I believe that it will be one of their occasional missteps. I'm fully prepared to be proven wrong, but I'll believe it when I see it.

Warrior on the Edge of Time is Hawkwind 's fifth studio album. It reached number 13 on the U.K. album charts and was their third and last album to make the U.S. Billboard chart, where it peaked at number 150. Many of the lyrics are by Michael Moorcock and the album is loosely based on the concept of Moorcock's ' Eternal Champion '. Reviews have been mixed, with Melody Maker panning the album and particularly criticizing the vocal work while the All Music Guide has praised the album for features such as the songwriting. Although not officially charting, single " Kings of Speed " managed a considerable amount of airplay and underground success, particularly in dance clubs. The album also notably represented only a slight change from the previous album in terms of personnel. [ 1 ] Having recruited a second drummer, Alan Powell, this album's line-up was still short-lived. Soon after the album's release, bassist Lemmy was sacked and vocalist Robert Calvert rejoined by the end of the year. Lemmy would go on to form the popular heavy metal/hard rock band Motörhead shortly after his departure, which alludes to the song " Motorhead " from this album. Contents "Assault and Battery" lyrics quote from Henry Wadsworth Longfellow 's poem "Psalm of Life". The song is a popular live number, being performed occasionally over the years, and has appeared on numerous live albums, sometimes under the title "Lives of Great Men".

a light, the odds are that the energy comes from burning coal. Close to 60 percent of all U.S. electricity comes from coal, so power stations must be supplied 365 days a year with this most abundant fossil fuel. FRED PALMER: People don't think a lot about coal, and they are not required to think about coal. But Coal in the United States is the major driver of our economy, in that it supplies 56 percent of electricity. One 1,500-megawatt coal unit supplies electricity for a million and a half people. NARRATOR: Coal generation is supplemented with other carbon-emitting fossil fuels like oil and natural gas. Some sources of electricity produce no greenhouse gases- hydroelectric power, solar energy, the power of the wind, and the largest carbon-free source of energy, nuclear power, which currently supplies over 20 percent of U.S. electricity. All these sources flow into electricity grids, like this one managed by Northern States Power in Minneapolis. What few people realize is how much energy is being consumed 24 hours a day. Even at 3:00 in the morning, 55 percent of the load is operating.

you will only get a subset of the tracks from the album. Therefore it may still be best to implement the Track [Feat. Guest] and Artist=Album Artist workaround to avoid some clutter in the Artists menus and make it easier to listen to complete albums. N.b. iTunes 9.1 introduced an option under the View > Column Browser menu to Use Album Artists which will declutter the Artist browser pane, however until this change is reflected in all iPod firmware the workaround may still provide the best approach. Update: iOS 5 includes an option under Settings > Music > Group By Album Artist which finally makes it practical to leave guest/feat. artist information in the Artist field, not that I can change anything until they update the classic firmware or my classic dies.

For example iTunes automatically drops leading articles (a/an/the) so "The Beatles" are arranged under "B" instead of "T". Occasionally different tracks from the same album can have different values in these sort fields which can also break up the grouping. Making the sort columns visible in iTunes can help with spotting & correcting such problems.

Tatsumi is a potent collection of animated shorts Featuring the voice of Yoshihiro Tatsumi. In Japanese with English subtitles. Unrated. Opens Friday, November 16, at the Vancity Theatre The most powerful feeling one gets from this potent collection of animated shorts is the sense of what it was like to be a child in Japan after the Second World War. The Osaka-born Yoshihiro Tatsumi started out, as with most cartoonists, with simple line drawings aimed at children. But his work grew darker and more personal, into an adult-minded manga style dubbed gekiga. Many of the tales presented in Tatsumi were drawn -- or "vomited out", as the artist puts it in his own, kind-voiced narration -- in the 1970s, when his country was experiencing a phoenixlike boom that mostly seemed to make him think of ashes. Directed by Singaporean Eric Khoo (best remembered for his 1996 Mee Pok Man ) and assembled by a multinational crew, the film takes material from Tatsumi's recent memoir, A Drifting Life . Seen in bright, cheerful colours, there are childhood struggles with an alcoholic, ne'er-do-well dad, encounters with manga pioneer Osamu Tezuka, and recurring bad-health spells brought on by overwork. These inform the more fictional tales with which they are interspersed. Rendered in a kind of burnt-sepia monochrome, the tales include visits with a hardened prostitute and her childlike father, still in army uniform during the American occupation; an artist discovering his inner toilet-wall pornographer; and, most harrowingly, an army photographer whose Hiroshima photo | OP | OP RV | 519,453 |

I'd like to stress that I consider myself a Creative Director and Designer and not a Developer. I am responsible for strategy, concepting, planning and designing websites. While I'm pretty good at front-end development, that's never been my focus. I've been doing this long enough to know that it's just not a good use of a designer's time. I prefer to focus on enhancing my natural creative talents rather than try to be a hybrid. I like to think this is the reason for my success. My advice to young designers is to be willing to do anything, nothing should be beneath you. Hard work, dedication, self-motivation and perseverance are very important. I encourage women to focus on following the steps along the career ladder with intention - Intern, Designer, Art Director, Senior Art Director, Associate Creative Director and Interactive Creative Director.

It's like losing a friend when a tree dies like that. Mountain Ash trees are susceptible to a fungal disease called fireblight. I have seen healthy trees suddenly die as you described. There doesn't seem to be a cure, but sometimes if only a few branches are affected you can prune them out and the tree can then survive for a long time. You have to cut back to healthy stock, and make sure to disinfect your tools. If you are able I would get an arborist to give you a diagnosis. Good Luck. | ID | ID QA | 771,762 |
What Was I Supposed To Be lyrics Ray Boltz What Was I Supposed To Be lyrics Jesus walked upon the earth, On the shores of Galilee, He'd say to His disciples, Let the little children come to me, I wonder if up in heaven, Do you suppose we'll see Little children asking What was I supposed to be. Chorus What was I supposed to be, What were my eyes supposed to see, And why did I taste of death Before I even drew a breath, Laid my head at my mother's breast, To sleep. Oh Jesus, Chorus Was I to be a prophet Used in the ministry, A doctor who would find a cure For some terrible disease, Even if I'd been born imperfect Why couldn't my parents see, That I'd have been made perfect When you came back for me.

She let out a sigh of relief as the loud chime of the bell echoed through the class room. The instant sound of students shuffling about was heard as everyone became eager to exit the class room, ready to go home for the day. Picking up her tanned leather bag, she carefully filled it with her remaining text books before clipping it shut and slinging it over her shoulder, letting a slight groan escape her chapped lips as the weight collided with her back. Feeling a light vibration from her cardigan pocket, she quickly perked up, her hand brushing against the soft material as she pulled out her buzzing phone. The screen was illuminated, the small letters at the bottom of the screen reading that she had received a new message. Eagerly unlocking her phone, she scanned through the text message, her smile growing larger as her hazel eyes read through each word.

?-AI from the GM pea, in particular comparing post-translational modifications (eg glycosylation patterns). Using a finer detection method, Campbell could show that structural variation of the ?-AI is common and they suggest that the variation(s) found in GM pea fits within the variable range found amongst beans. However, this does not allow the conclusion that any one of the variant proteins is or is not allergenic or immunogenic. This needs testing. Even small differences/variations can have very different effects. And here is the challenge and the striking difference between the papers. Whilst Prescott et al (2005, 2006) have developed a strong and workable model by using oral exposure (eg feeding trials or administering food directly into the stomach) to test for food allergens and immunogens, Campbell et al only use injections into the body cavity (intra-peritoneal) to sensitize the mice and compare immune responses (here Th1 and Th2 antibody isotype responses). Intra-peritoneal injections are generally used in other contexts, in particular in animal testing of systemic drugs, when the drug is supposed to be delivered throughout the body. It is also used to sensitise the body to a substance, eg the injection with a purified substance is a bit like a vaccine, it warns the immune system. Next time when the same compound comes along the immune system will remember. Campbell et al. were using the same specific mice (BALB/c) as Prescott.

many animals die on the farm as a result of other diseases and no compensation is paid? Why are the farmers no desperate about that? Why do we concentrate on this one disease? The turning point when the disease became out of control and a major problem was the epidemic of foot and mouth disease. The controls were laid off because the focus was on eliminating the foot and mouth disease and the other problem was restocking. Cattle were moved to different areas, and we suddenly had a massive problem with bovine TB, which was mostly the result of cattle-to-cattle or soil-to-cattle infection. Some people want to seek a simple solution, but the solution is a false one. We should look at the geek manifesto and have policies that are rich in science and in the truth. Otherwise, we will do nothing now to solve a problem that will evolve. In the near future, vaccination will become a practical solution. I believe that the decision taken by the Welsh Government is the right one. Let us look at what is going on.

the non Zone A area of the Waterloo and Vauxhall Office charging area. We think this area should be charged for residential CIL at nearer the Waterloo rate, leaving only the hinterland to be charged at the suggested Zone B rate. This would be consistent with the view and zoning of the DIFS study, which reckoned the riverside area to be capable of sustaining a higher DIFS levy than the rest of the OAPF DIFS area. CIL -- Other Development 9 As regards the proposed charge of 125 per sqm for office development in the Waterloo and Vauxhall area, and nil elsewhere, we recall the views of Messrs Tuckerman to the Bondway Inquiry: "Vauxhall as a location is well provided for by transport facilities, benefiting from the train and tube lines as well as the new bus station. It is also a short walk to Westminster and Victoria. However, retail amenity is poor and the local environment has no 'heart' from either a community or business perspective. It is also viewed as a harsh environment due to the one way system, the clubs and the vagrant population. It is therefore generally seen as a secondary office location by the property industry and business community." 10 The draft Vauxhall SPD and Lambeth Core Strategy contemplate a further 8000 new jobs at Vauxhall, which at 25 sqm per job for office jobs amounts to a need for a further 200,000 sqm of office development, which seems slow in coming forward, compared to | IN | IN | 3,031,455 |

this one, Russia is increasingly cooperating with the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. Moscow agreed this month to let the Western military alliance take armored vehicles through its territory. Last month, Russian counter narcotics agents went along on a joint NATO-Afghan drug raid. Despite the contrasts, the two wars have vivid narrative elements in common: An invading force finds that its vast military superiority is no guarantee of victory against a guerrilla insurgency ; resentment against foreigners sometimes boils over; the terrain is timelessly formidable; local ways can seem impenetrably mysterious. The Soviet withdrawal is a favorite public relations theme of the Taliban movement, which itself was toppled by the U.S.-led invasion in a matter of weeks, only to regroup and reinvigorate itself in recent years. "This was their graveyard," said Zabiullah Mujahid, a spokesman for the group. "As it will be for the Americans." The Taliban movement is far smaller and less broad based than the anti-Soviet mujahedin, which encompassed many ethnic groups and political factions. Nonetheless, the insurgency is expanding its territorial reach, and NATO troop casualties this year are the highest of the war . | ID | ID DF | 3,023,096 |

partially diminished the value of her 18.5 points per game for a senior-laden team that lost in the quarterfinals of the Big East tournament and the second round of the NCAA tournament. But as good as Sunday's line looked, Brown isn't trying to transform Rodgers into a new player, mostly because he already has enough of those on his hands. "Her shooting percentage was a big deal when we had seven seniors last year," Brown said. "Her shooting percentage doesn't mean anything to me this year because sometimes we're going to need her to score 35. Last game we played, she only scored [22 points], so some nights we're going to need her. But Sugar's always been efficient; for the most part, she takes good shots and she hits them. Her shooting percentage is really not a big deal for me. it's the opponent's field goal percentage that's my biggest concern." Even without Delle Donne, Delaware had opportunities to win Sunday's game, throwing away perhaps its best chance by shooting 14-of-25 from the free throw line. But with just enough defense and just enough Rodgers, Georgetown came away with a significant result for a team with only two players who averaged even double-digit minutes last season and a coach adjusting to the head role after years as an assistant. Rodgers might shoot the Hoyas out of some games. She might win them more games like this one. What's clear is this particular Georgetown team is fortunate to have her.

for those of us in the territories who take seriously the importance of the rule of law - which, by the way, was the subject of a recent high level meeting of the U.N. General Assembly. Implementation of the Decolonization Mandate CAR Does the U.N. review implementation? CGC Well, there have been a number of U.N. reports over the years on implementation of the decolonization mandate. These are essentially compilation documents derived from replies of some member states and some U.N. agencies on their respective activities in advancing the decolonization process. But these reports reflect the activities of only the countries or agencies which make such information available, while most do not report. So there is an incomplete picture. CAR How can this be improved? CGC Well, I have suggested in the past that a systematic examination of the specific actions called for in the resolutions is the best approach in determining the extent to which these actions have been carried out. Such mandates as the development of political education programs for the people of the territories, dissemination of information to the territories, mechanisms for the control of natural resources, among a number of areas would be assessed in a comprehensive fashion.

in midfield possession, in attacking he needs it all because it's his personality. A true midfielder be it central or attacking. Physically he's not anything like Ronaldo and has more stamina, more raw power but changes direction at nothing like the pace. Technically he has vision and strikes a beautiful ball but his feet are not exceptionally quick. Mentally there's just no way Stevie G could have been anything other than all action. Even Benitez saw fit to keep him at the heart of everything both within touching distance of Alonso and Torres making him the link, the most important part of our midfield. Houllier played him right and whilst he scored plenty he was never happy there and he's since not returned. Rodgers see's him as part of front three simply because we've nobody up top. No doubt he'd be brilliant as part of a front three, his legs are tiring but his vision is still there. That's the adaptability of the man. Equally as a central midfielder this season he's created more chances than any other player. If he played centre back he'd be our best centre back. Playing right midfield he'd be our best right midfielder. That's why he is and always be a midfielder because he can do everything.

true for a lot of people. Problem is that it is easy to eat of 2,000 calories more than you need, it is damn hard to burn off 2,000 calories you'd be in gym all day. If you eat without control you are screwed, no matter how much you exercise. The good thing about exercise is that after 30 mins on a running machine to burn off a mars bar, mars bars no longer look worth it. I suspect a lot has to do with shape ... i.e. where the fat is. There are some professional rugby prop forwards who are probably 'fat' in the everyday, casual sense of the word, and in terms of their BMI and in terms of their bodyfat level, but who are also very fit. On the other hand there are shapes to be seen on every high street which do not inspire the thought, "hmm, fat but fit". .. we need to put back the activity that modern life has removed into our daily routines.

the same scale as that. 3. Where is the evidence in the hadeeth to say that Hatim's action was kufr? Bearing in mind we can't use Umar's statement, because the prophet did not condone Umar rather he prevented him from killing him. Also umar said let me kill this munafiq, now we know that one can get killed in the sharia due to many different reasons not just major kufr, such as killing another person. We also know that Nifaq and kufr both have levels i.e. major and minor. If the hatib action was major kufr then why did the prophet accept his excuse, at the very least the prophet would have clarified it i.e. "O Hatib I know you're truthful however, what you did was kufr etc" If you're still using the statement of Umar as evidence & saying the prophet condoned it. Then it means he would either be killed due to apostasy or as capital punishment! *If we say due to apostasy then the prophet mentioning the fact that hatib witnessed badr has no benefit whatsoever cause a major hasana never wipes away major kufr. *However, knowing that the prophet mentioned badr then it clarifies that hatibs action was a major sin therefore the prophet mentioned a major hasana for him. Major Sin (informing Quraish) wiped away by witnessing badr. The wiping away of sins according to the level of the action is something well known in the sharia.

and vital anti-imperialist movement. Vijay Prashad is Associate Professor and Director of International Studies, Trinity College. He is the author of several books including Everybody Was Kung Fu Fighting: Afro-Asian Connections and the Myth of Cultural Purity, Fat Cats and Running Dogs and The Karma of Brown Folk. Each was included in the Village Voice's "25 Best Books of the Year" list. In this short but powerful book of interlinked essays, noted cultural critic Vijay Prashad examines the contradictions of the American economy. Prashad assesses a range of related issues: the oft-vaunted US economy, propped up by the rising debt of poor and middle-class workers; welfare policies that punish those attempting to escape the grip of debt and poverty; and a prison industry that regulates and houses the unemployed, as well as a reserve army of laborers. In Keeping Up with the Dow Joneses , Prashad argues that the advent of mass production and advertising has converted citizens into consumers whose desires are captured by the phrase "keeping up with the Joneses." Yet, as Prashad so persuasively demonstrates, keeping up with the Joneses is a trap: Americans have gone into massive consumer debt, with the poorest forty percent of the public borrowing money to compensate for stagnant incomes, not to spend on luxuries. Only the richest twenty percent borrow money to invest in stocks. Not surprisingly, in the last few years, income and wealth differentials have risen to record highs.

away your ability to have any influence as to how these issues play out in your world. 3. The only way democracy can work is if citizens, young and old, are active participants. A government by the people, for the people just can't work without the people. Like a car without an engine, or a computer without a hard drive, a democracy without voters is just a shell and has no power. While it is easy to say "one vote doesn't make a difference" the reality is that every vote counts. Also we have to remember that as an individual our vote may seem to be little more than a whisper but when your vote is combined with the votes of others who share your views it becomes a voice and the more like-voters there are the louder that voice grows. 4. If you don't vote you really have no right to complain about government decisions you don't like. If there is one thing that is really annoying to actual voters, it is the endless ramblings on the bad political policy of a current government spewing from the mouths of eligible voters who never bothered to cast a ballot. If you don't vote it is like saying you don't care how your country is run, so if you don't care where do you get the idea that you can complain? 5. Bottom line: you should vote because you can. Voting is a tremendous gift. Believe it or not, young people | OP | OP OB | 3,136,552 |

It was very nice to be out with writer friends. It was very nice to socialize like a normal person without doing a faceplant in the salad. It was very nice to be able to drive myself home at 8 pm without feeling like I was risking life and safety due to my own goofiness. I think I'm just about back. In other news, the_child finished the story she was writing yesterday [ jlake.com | LiveJournal ]. That was fanfic of my story " Jack's House ". She wrote backstory specifically about how Jack came to be absent. And her sense of literary style is emerging. We had a long conversation about word echoes and how to rework phrasing to avoid them.

two people imprisoned by time...and set free by love. Based on the #1 bestseller, The Time Traveler's Wife weaves together destiny and devotion, past and future to turn an extraordinary love into an extraordinary love story. I thought this was a great love story. Obviously you had to accept Time Travel as an affliction like any other debilitating condition because that is how it is portrayed in this movie. But the love shown between the main characters transcended the actual affliction. The movie was about a love so great that for the two to experience it even if for a short time was worth the sadness that later occurs. I thought both actors portrayed the deep love of the characters quite well. For those that have never seen or had that type of love in their life it can be hard to imagine and accept. If you do not like deep love stories then skip the movie. If you cannot accept or overlook the time travel metaphor then skip the movie. If you nitpick about every minor detail requiring that they be 100% correct then skip this movie. If on the other hand, you want to see what true love is, you might like this movie. If you like What If movies with love as a central theme then you might like this movie. THE TIME TRAVELER'S WIFE is a diversion. At times what works well in a novel doesn't translate to the screen: the magic of the reader's imagination | IP | IP DS | 410,951 |
Super Simple Mango Gelato Here's a recipe to get you ready for summer... A ridiculously easy mango sorbet you can whip up in no time -- and no ice cream maker needed! You will however, require a food processor -- or a high quality blender may do the trick too. I finally caved in and purchased a food processor and I looove it. Homemade cookie dough dip? Yes please. Pesto, hommos, capsicum dips? I'm there! I can't imagine my kitchen life without it now! If you have any great food processor recipes, please share as I'd love to have another excuse to whip mine out Now, onto matters more gelato related... This recipe is very easy to prepare and make, and only takes a few minutes to blend -- what's not to love? Serves: About 3 people Time to prepare: Mangoes need to be frozen overnight but actual blending takes less than a few minutes! Ingredients 1.5 cups frozen mango, chopped into chunks 1/4 cup milk (I used soy milk but you can use whatever you like -- cow's milk, almond, coconut etc.) 1-2 T maple syrup or brown sugar* Optional: 1 teaspoon vanilla essence (I just added this for some flavour but it's not neccessary.) * You can omit if your mangoes are very sweet. These particular mangoes I bought were very cheap and not terribly sweet -- clearly they had been forced to ripen early in order to meet demand and unfortunately did not have the best flavour. | HI | HI HT RE | 3,290,121 |

Book Description This book is a new chapter in a continuing international collaboration on transportation survey methods. It identifies new challenges to the world community of transport survey specialists as well as the larger constituency of practitioners, planners, and decision-makers that it serves and provides potential solutions and recommendations for addressing them. The book is structured around an introduction and five overlapping themes of major contemporary importance to the development of data collection on both passenger travel and freight movements which are: Sustainability and User Adaptation; Global Social Issues; Freight and Transit Planning; Technology applications; and, Emerging/Persistent Survey Issues, including Data Harmonization".

Office this week trailed a series of programmes designed to break the open source deadlock. First among them was a promise to create an open source reference stack: a certified list of software that when put together could create an assuredly functional system. A meeting of the British Computer Society heard on Tuesday night how the government relied on reference stacks produced by the leading software vendors in preference of their own applications and those produced by their strategic allies. The practice excluded competitors and left procurement professionals across government ignorant of alternatives even when they were better and cheaper. The Cabinet Office was also working on a draft software assessment model after losing patience with systems integrators whose own assessments typically failed to approve open source alternatives to software produced by the dominant corporations. Rashid told integrators about the plan on Tuesday: "In my experience, when we've spoken to some of the integrators there's been a reluctance to work with some open source software that this department's wanted to work with. Systems integrators say the software isn't suitable." "Quite often, the refrain from the integrators is that the software is not appropriate, not mature enough and not suitable based on their internal assessment approach." One way we can try and help that is if the Cabinet Office starts producing an assessment model to separate good software from bad software, looking at things like support, how established is it, is there good governance around development, these sorts of things.

down progress? And will the project ever generate a sufficient return for investors to hop on board and relieve the government and the taxpayer at a good price? Nevertheless, from now until the election Kevin Rudd and the Communications Minister, Stephen Conroy, have a good news story to tell on broadband. The Finance Minister, Lindsay Tanner, even tried to go one step further yesterday, and paint the opposition into a corner with its determination to bin the scheme. Mr Tanner's argument was that the Opposition Leader, Tony Abbott, would get no joy out of his promise to scrap the project. Because the $26 billion expected to be spent will generate a return, the money comes from the capital account, not from recurrent expenditure. This means ditching the project will not deliver an extra dollar to spend elsewhere. ''Even if he were to commit what I regard as an economically disastrous and foolish act of cancelling this project, he simply does not have a big pile of money to spend,'' Mr Tanner said. 24 comments so far Expect Conroy to be all about the NBN and saying very little about the internet filter between now and the election, hoping to distract everyone from his failings as Comms Minister.

would actually be more than just pop entertainment for a handful of individuals with nothing better to do with their time. There are already plenty of other sites like that. Is the lack of contributing visitors just diplomacy or is it arrogance or disdain for the very people this site claimed it wanted to encourage to submit their ideas for consideration. I do not know the answer to this at present, since the competition has obviously taken up considerable time and many people have just been awaiting the results. What happens now? Does this site now become a vibrant community for the sharing and discussion of ideas or does everyone just wait for the next competition? The typical mistake for many essays is denial of time without taking into account different concepts of time. In the general theory of relativity time is integrated in space-time and can exist, for example, in the form of gravitational radiation. Denial of time means also denial of the theory of relativity. However, authors show loyalty or completely agree with the theory of relativity, but deny time. It is sufficiently contradictory situation. Good point Robert. Time is very problematic because there are many different ideas muddled together in this one concept. There is the idea that it is the 4th dimension of space-time. The idea of a time line along which past, present and future have a material existence.As well as the experience of time measured with timing devices or internally measured via circadian rhythms | ID | ID DF | 444,213 |
It is difficult to overstate the lack of interest there is among people in the Republic these days in Northern Ireland, and in relations between North and South. As somebody who works in the North and lives in the South, my experience in recent years, as the economic and financial crisis has come to dominate all public discourse, is that people in the Republic simply don't want to know. 'People in the South are utterly happy with its 26 county shape: their mental map is the 26 counties,' says a Southerner who has held senior public office in both jurisdictions. 'When there was active violence in the North, and people saw the Northern conflict on the television every night, their consciousness was more elevated. Now there is no longer a constituency of the concerned in the South.' There is a constituency -- it is difficult to know how large it is -- who would go further and say that after over 90 years of going their very different ways, the two are separate places, and that is the way to keep them. This view was articulated by the young woman in the audience who attacked Martin McGuinness on the game-changing RTE Frontline programme during last October's presidential campaign in the following words: 'As a young Irish person, I am curious as to why you have come down here to this country, with all your baggage, your history, your controversy?

Additional Details Best Answer - Chosen by Voters I looked at your link, and I think your definition of rave may differ from mine. From my experience, raves are parties with loud techno music, dancing, glowsticks- and lots of sex drugs and alchohol. I've never heard of an all-ages rave. If that party really is a rave, even for all ages, be very careful. Raves are notorious for LOTS of drug use. Other Answers (9) People dance and make out (or more) and sweat ALOT because they are all on drugs (mostly ecstasy, coke, and acid), If you're underage, don't let these people contribute to your deliquency. DO NOT GO ALONE!! Date rapists with drugs in tow flock to places like these. Actually, if you're asking this question, you may be too naive to handle a rave. If you are a little naive, flock to the gay boys, they're usually not as messed up as everyone else and definately not trying yo rape you! Source(s): Rave's usually involve one major element, dancing (: All night long, just having fun and letting yourself free. Honestly, I don't know of any raves that are "pill free" or "alcohol free."

effects of climate change, including extreme weather patterns, increasing droughts that lead to famine and disease, massive floods and avalanches in Asia, and species extinction unless significant action is taken on a global level to abate climate change. During the past six years, the Bush Administration has made several attempts to block or censure government employees or reports that warn of global warming.

discontent or that the player is considering a move. But even that is not an automatic sell. And even that doesn't mean Wenger is necessarily lying. Yes, but unless a player has unconditional love and loyalty for his team he will only sign if the contract offered is better than he thinks he can get elsewhere, the level of football on offer is as good as he thinks he deserves, and only when he is sure he has heard from any and all potential suitors. Unfortunately in a depressed economy clubs are more careful about what they will spend (unless they are Man City) and many deals happen late in the summer transfer window. This means if you are waiting for a player to sign a new contract in the summer you can expect a long wait with many neutral statements from the player as he tries not to irritate his current club or any potential future club. Of course, if he is determined to leave he will make that clear and burn his bridges, unless he is a nasty, sneaky fellow like Nasri, in which case he will try to play potential suitors against eachother to drive his price up, while trying to appear a lovely bloke to his current side, and giving little hints that he actually intends to stay and the fact that there is a bidding war for him should not be seen as a bad thing (until he signs for his new team, and calls | NARRATIVE | NA SR | 540,636 |
