there are so many versions of the song. BUT I By Natasha from Australia on 8 August 2011 By Carrie from United States on 28 August 2011 When I had my twins, this is one of the few songs that I could remember the words to! (or at least I thought. After looking at the lyrics, it seems that I made up quite a bit!) My babies smile every time I sing it now. By Sally from United States on 13 October 2011 By Billy from Bermuda on 13 October 2011 By Trolololo from United States on 31 October 2011 On top of a body~ All covered in blood~ I just shot Barney, With a great big gun! I went to his funeral, I went to his grave~ Some people threw flowers... I threw a grenade! So dear PBS~ Next time you choose~ A terrible show~ Look out for the head, That's gonna blow! By Matthew from United States on 10 November 2011 i remember this one version growing up in elemetery school (i am 14 now in 9th grade) it went like on top of old smokey all covered in lead i just shot dumb barney all up in the head. then there was this one part that went like down the valley and something. By Hillbilly Jo from Bhutan on 4 March 2012 By Morven from United Kingdom on 19 March 2012 I first sang a variation of this song when I was at Brownies. I loved it | LY | LY SL | 446,611 |
5 Comments "Of course the public can use a private gym - so long as they have the money to join it ! A public facility should be open to all for a simple entry charge not huge monthly fee's. Not everyone can afford to join a gym but they might be able to pay for a swim once a week." "I may be missing a point here but aren't the public allowed to use a "private" gym? and also we're living in a period of extreme and absolute austerity so how can there be any public i.e. taxpayers money invested in any such initiatives? The money has been long spent/wasted there isn't any left, so when a company (who heaven forbid want to make profit) come into our city and invest money, create jobs and more choice for our residents (not to mention remove an eyesore from our cityscape) let's all pour scorn on the idea and breed negativity instantly?? maybe that might just be a better way to get this city moving in the right direction instead of moaning and whinging all the time? just a thought!" | NARRATIVE | NA NE | 3,138,238 |

there has been a very scanty attendance all through. I do not make a great point of it, except to say that this is not -- as represented, as far as I can make out, in the point of view of hon. Members opposite -- a matter of vast constitutional importance. In fact, the right hon. Gentleman ended up by saying that this was a small, niggling Bill. Well, they cannot have it both ways. The fact is, the Opposition have not made up their minds about this Bill. With characteristic impulsiveness, the Leader of the Opposition at once dashed in with a violent objects on to this Bill, and hon. and right hon. Gentlemen opposite have been compelled to follow suit. We have been accused of drawing a red herring -- These interruptions are not merely unmannerly, but they are not very dignified for Parliament. During the speech of the Leader of the Opposition I did ask that he might have a quiet hearing. Surely, the Opposition might give the Prime Minister a quiet hearing, too? It has been said that we are introducing this Bill in order to draw attention away from our alleged shortcomings. If this were so and if this were our intention, surely the obvious tactics would have been to have tried to raise a first-class row with the House of Lords on some particular issue.

A similar campaign to change the law in Scotland was defeated in 2010 by 85 votes to 16. Not only Parliamentarians but the British Medical Association, the Royal Colleges of Physicians, Surgeons and General Practitioners; the Royal College of Anaesthetists; and the British Geriatrics Society remain strongly opposed to any legal change. Is this because they are all in favour of suffering and pain? 95% of Palliative Medicine Specialists -- these are the people who care for dying patients day in and day out -- are opposed to a change in the law. Are they all uncaring? The Association of British Neurologists warn that severe depression will lead to cases of assisted dying and that a law which says two doctors can determine such cases will offer few safeguards. Do they have no understanding of either patients or law? And what of disabled people? Baroness (Jane) Campbell, who has spinal muscular atrophy, who is a Commissioner of the Equality and Human Rights Commission says: "I and many other severely disabled people will not perceive your support for euthanasia as an act of compassion but one founded in fear and prejudice." Do we have a better understanding of how disabled people view euthanasia than the organisations which represent them? Repeatedly -- and in the light of cases like that of Tony Nicklinson -- rational people have asked the question whether is it possible to allow euthanasia for a determined few without putting much larger numbers of others at risk -- and | SP | SP FS | 3,016,428 |

educate them enough so that they can take advantage of what you bring to the table. If you just agree to everything they say and take the money, you're not doing your job and most likely you won't gain any respect from your client. In my experience, clients appreciate the fact that I'm opinionated and I can back up my decisions with the thinking that went into them. It does not mean that you shouldn't be flexible and should not listen to comments. Some clients have more difficulties than others with abstract stuff like site maps and wireframes, some others approve the creative brief without reading it even though you warned them it was a very important document and explained the implications... It doesn't mean they're stupid or don't respect you. They just have different priorities. As a designer, I believe it's part of my job to understand that and meet every unexpected legitimate requests as a new creative challenge. You don't always have complete control over all the variables though... and those won't work in all situations. By far the best advice in the whole post is to present your comps instead of throwing them at your clients without any explanation. I would recommend to try to get a 30 mn appointment with all key players to present your designs in person. If you sell your concept in person, you'll dramatically reduce chances for these kinds of client's comments. even though i am not that involved with WORK anymore, | OP | OP | 36,901 |

explain Microsoft's refusal to license Windows 95 without Internet Explorer 1.0 and 2.0. The version of Internet Explorer (1.0) that Microsoft included with the original OEM version of Windows 95 was a separable, executable program file supplied on a separate disk. Web browsing thus could be installed or removed without affecting the rest of Windows 95's functionality in any way. The same was true of Internet Explorer 2.0. Microsoft, moreover, created an easy way to remove Internet Explorer 1.0 and 2.0 from Windows 95 after they had been installed, via the "Add/Remove" panel. This demonstrates the absence of any technical reason for Microsoft's refusal to supply Windows 95 without Internet Explorer 1.0 and 2.0. 176. Similarly, there is no technical justification for Microsoft's refusal to license Windows 95 to OEMs with Internet Explorer 3.0 or 4.0 uninstalled, or for its refusal to permit OEMs to uninstall Internet Explorer 3.0 or 4.0. Microsoft's decision to provide users with an "uninstall" procedure for Internet Explorer 3.0 and 4.0 and its decision to promote Internet Explorer on the basis of that feature demonstrate that there was no technical or quality-related reason for refusing to permit OEMs to use this same feature. Microsoft would not have permitted users to uninstall Internet Explorer, nor would consumers have demanded such an option, if the process would have fragmented or degraded the other functionality of the operating system. 177. As with Windows 95, there is no technical justification for Microsoft's refusal to meet consumer demand for a | IN | IN LT | 184,815 |

Then he will start talking about a summit with the Soviets, a summit at which he and I can begin to discuss nuclear disarmament as equals. Meanwhile, however, I have got to put a bag over Malinovsky's head. The Caribbean is turning into one big pressure cooker, like one of Nina Petrovna's pots for preparing the meat for her famous stew. Kennedy keeps sending in more and more troops to the area. Our informants tell us that Florida is beginning to overflow with men and hardware, as if they are preparing for D-Day all over again. I don't think Kennedy wants to attack Cuba. But the hawks in the U.S. are clamoring that we have put nuclear means in Cuba, while Kennedy keeps issuing statements claiming there is no evidence of offensive weapons on the island. It will be a race to the finish. Will the Americans discover the weapons before they become operational? Or will they find out about them when I make my speech in Havana in November? Our KGB people say that we are disguising our deployments by using palm trees for cover. Palm trees? Cuban palm trees must be huge! Fidel must show them to me in November. | OP | OP OB | 553,214 |
Getting back into the groove I've been feeling like I've abandoned my interview data -- because of Christmas and essay marking and all the rest of it, I haven't really thought much about my own work since Helsinki a month ago. Having spent as long as I could procrastinating, today I got back into writing and hopefully I will soon get back into the groove of my research. I'm writing an article based on the Helsinki talk, and at long last I have got beyond just cutting and pasting bits of my talk and actually writing something a bit more substantial -- hopefully tomorrow if I don't finish it I will at least have broken the back of it. I have spent a fair amount of time though wondering why I didn't read all those millions of books and journal articles months ago. I really need to get back into the NVivo (computer analysis) of my interviews and media sources as well -- it will be a slog, but worth it in the long term. I think I'm getting there!

Elsewhere on TheSite.org Elsewhere on TheSite.org Hello Documentary film makers, Firecracker Films, are developing a thoughtful new documentary for the BBC. It will follow the stories of teenagers who find themselves looking after their younger siblings after losing their parents. Unexpectedly finding yourself responsible for the care of your siblings is one thing; to be coping with a bereavement in addition is another. The documentary will raise awareness of this difficult situation and reach out to others who may be going through similar experiences. If you are aged 16 to 20 and are caring for younger siblings, they'd very much like to hear from you.

hosts. (Spoiler alert: It’s not.) I was 25 and my entire broadcasting career consisted of 10 seconds a day as “Stat Boy” and saying inappropriate things on radio at Fordham University . When I finally said ‘yes,’ I realized I had no clothes. I wore my only suit to work the next day — sweated through it — and put together a hosting stint that has to go down in history as the worst of all-time. But I did get through it, and I’m much better for it. I wore the same suit to work the next day, and by Wednesday I needed a new tie. It was 18 months later when I signed my first contract to host the show. Aaron Solomon is the producer and he is a rock. He’s steered this show to where it is now, along with (associate producer) Josh Bard , (executive producer) Erik Rydholm and (ESPN senior coordinating producer) David Brofsky . But, first and foremost, this show is about the panelists and our crew — currently Bob Ryan , Woody Paige , Tim Cowlishaw , Bill Plaschke , JA Adande , Kevin Blackistone , Jackie MacMullan , Michael Smith , Jemele Hill , Bomani Jones , Israel Gutierrez — and all of the panelists we’ve had through the years have carried us.

same thing as a blog. Most blogs are interactive, while newsletters and other informational sites frequently are not. Most interactive of all are bulletin boards and listservs. Since others are repeating themselves yet again, I will do the same. I suggested before (and repeat it here) that Paul start a thread entitled "Let's All Argue With Doug!!" where those who find such interchange stimulating can have at it 24/7 ad nauseam. That would make it possible for those of us seriously interested in improvements to curriculum, instruction and public education to carry on discussions on those themes. Chacun a son gout. Or perhaps the problem is that there are simply too few Canadians with significant interest in these matters, whereas there are hundreds of active, high quality U.S. blogs, bulletin boards and listservs on such topics.

million people do not want to work with obama...he has nothing to offer to those who dont need any free stuff" That's too bad.... because all those red states that voted against Obama take more federal money than they contribute. Now, I can understand that this makes people feel small and insecure to know that they live with the help of a bunch of big city Yankees..... And so there is a natural inclination to deny their little secret up and down the block. But this is just emotional immaturity. Everyone knows that the blue states subsidize the red states. And the red states resent the help, but still desperately need it to survive.

why people don't use them in the first place. Not to mention that I honestly think gyms are a racket. Sure - it's nice to have when it's raining outside. Or when you live in a place with harsh weather. But it is not mandatory. posted by 7life at 9:37 AM on June 19 The idea that manual labor and gym time are interchangeable (let alone that manual labor is superior to gym time) is laughable. With manual labor, the focus is on getting a specific task completed, hopefully without injury. Chronic wear accumulates, and loads/rep ranges are not properly calibrated for ideal health benefits. In the gym, we (can) focus specifically on improving health, injury resistance, strength, flexibility, etc. It's certainly not sufficient to fully compensate for poor eating habits or posture but it's a hell of a lot better than manual labor. As diet is necessary to living and good health, so is sleeping and exercise. The most effective exercise will largely be using purpose-designed gym equipment. So far as gyms being a racket: Sure, if you follow the PlanetFitness model of "monthly fees, users never improve, discourage even moderate weights, encourage excessive use of cardio machines". You're absolutely right for cardio - the only purpose is to provide a nice indoor area. But cardio really, really isn't sufficient for good health. It doesn't have high enough resistance to maintain bone density or muscle mass, both of which are essential for avoiding injury - especially while crossing middle | ID | ID DF | 66,213 |
the recipient intended to repent of all mortal sins. Christians coming into the Church should receive the sacrament of reconciliation before their reception into the Church (there is no established point for when they should do this) to ensure that they are in a state of grace when they are received and confirmed. Their formation in the faith should stress that frequent confession is part of Catholic life: "The celebration of the sacrament of reconciliation with candidates for reception into full communion is to be carried out at a time prior to and distinct from the celebration of the rite of reception. As part of the formation of such candidates, they should be encouraged in the frequent celebration of this sacrament" (NSC 36). The Christian fully enters the Church by profession of faith and formal reception. For the profession of faith, the candidate says, "I believe and profess all that the holy Catholic Church believes, teaches, and proclaims to be revealed by God." The bishop or priest then formally receives the Christian into the Church by saying, "[Name], the Lord receives you into the Catholic Church. His loving kindness has led you here, so that in the unity of the Holy Spirit you may have full communion with us in the faith that you have professed in the presence of his family." The bishop or priest then normally administers the sacrament of confirmation and celebrates the holy Eucharist, giving the new Catholic the Eucharist for the first time.

Man Who Could Work Miracles is a film, ostensibly a comedy, that H.G. Wells (1866-1946) scripted late in life for London Film Productions. The present volume is a literary text of the scenario and dialogue published in advance of the movie's release in 1937. Wells himself says it is "a companion piece" to Things to Come, his deadly serious film done a year before. Both films were produced by Alexander Korda, who extended to Wells unprecedented control over them. | IP | IP DS | 1,450,466 |

If you're one of the many working professionals who were made redundant as a result of the global financial crisis and consequent recession you may still be unemployed due to the unsteady nature of the recovery. Or it could be that you have a new job in a different sector but you want to make the transition back to the certain industry. Instead of waiting for the economic climate to improve before you make your move, there are several things you can do to get back into the game as soon as possible. Do your research. If you're out of touch with what's going on in the sector, get back up to speed by finding out what's been happening, both in the market as a whole and in individual institutions.

Book Description Release Date: May 30, 2000 | Series: Modern Library Humor and Wit This book includes many of the greatest hits from 1930 to 1958--available only in this edition--by the devastatingly witty Perelman, the leading figure of The New Yorker magazine's golden age of humor and one of the most popular American humorists ever. In these hilarious pieces, the charmingly cranky Perelman turns his scathing attention to books, movies, New York socialites, the newspaper business, country life, travel, Hollywood, the publishing industry, and, last but not least, himself. His self-portrait: "Under a forehead roughly comparable to . . . Piltdown Man are visible a pair of tiny pig eyes, lit up alternately by greed and concupiscence. . . . Before they made S. J. Perelman, they broke the mold." Sophisticated and supremely mischievous, Perelman is an acrobat of language who turns a phrase and then, before the reader has time to finish admiring his agility, turns it again. This book includes many of the greatest hits from 1930 to 1958--available only in this edition--by the devastatingly witty Perelman, the leading figure of The New Yorker magazine's golden age of humor and one of the most popular American humorists ever.

religious elements of marriage. Infidel : 15 May 2012 6:29:17pm Tens of millions of children from polygamous marriages around the world also know no other life. According to the Herald Sun, polygamous "marriage" also occurs in Australia: "Centrelink general manager Hank Jongen admitted the agency was making payments to people in multiple-couple relationships." Are their children to be treated as second class citizens? By logical extension of the author's argument, polygamous marriage should therefore be legalised in Australia. onthatpointsir : 15 May 2012 6:59:42pm except there are true victims in polygamous marriages and they happen to be women. the first wives who generally cannot say no to her husband choosing to have a second wife. or the third or fourth. who is getting hurt in a consensual same sex marriage? Roberto : 15 May 2012 7:16:58pm As soon as the people in polyamorous relationships present credible, logical arguments backed up by decades of research, we'll think about it. I personally know two trios that live in such relationships. One trio is made up of a man and two women (4 years), the other is made up of three men (9 years). They are adults capable of giving their consent, therefore I see no issues. And before you pose your next question: as soon as dogs (objects, dead people, etc.) form a lobby group and start fighting to marry people.... and they manage to argue that they are capable of giving their consent, I'll think about that, too.

Some clients will prefer men because they take them more seriously. Some clients will prefer a women because they are more personable. It all balances out in the grand scheme. Well, this article can totally turn the table around by having male designers answering the same set of questions. Obviously, you can visit these ladies portfolios to judge on their talents yourself. I agreed that different people will have different advantages over their peers regardless of their race, religion or sex. But shouldn't interview always meant to be provoking and intriguing. While many tries to evade or avoid sensitive topics, playing ignorant isn't going to help. We should find out if that is a problem and try our best to eradicate it. Rather than to say, we can't discuss this, its too sensitive. Stop talking about this.

100,000 a month, the American people appear to be growing more confident in both the economy and the president. On Tuesday, the Conference Board's measure of consumer confidence surged to a seven-month high, trouncing economists' expectations. Respondents in particular had a more favorable view of the job market going forward -- with more consumers expecting employers to add positions in the coming months. The recovery seems to have jelled with voters, too. A recent New York Times/CBS News poll found that 40 percent of respondents think the country is on the right track, up from 23 percent a year ago. Moreover, 31 percent of respondents described the economy as very or fairly good, up from 14 percent a year ago. Just as opinions about the economy have driven opinions about the campaign, it seems that opinions about the campaign are driving opinions about the economy. Democrats have become much more optimistic, pulling the national numbers up with them. A new Pew poll , for instance, shows that just 15 percent of Democrats say that recent economic news is mostly bad, while 60 percent of Republicans say the same. A year ago, they held similar opinions. "Right now, politics is playing an inordinately large role in the behavioral economic data," wrote Lydia Saad and Dennis Jacobe, of Gallup, in an analysis of the surge in consumer confidence . "This suggests that the period between now and the election is a particularly hazardous time to apply traditional behavioral economic and political interpretations | NARRATIVE | NA NE | 447,359 |

In a nutshell, The overt business benefit of attending a Mastermind should be a 30% increase in profits within the year The reason to believe a group will do it for you is its track record What makes those I am talking about so very different is the fact they have been run for some twenty years in various guises and constantly deliver. In order to avoid paying a premium price for attending a fully-fledged mastermind group, people try to run their own groups. The apparent upside is obvious - it will be cheap; the downside is less obvious at first. The reality is that such a 'less expensive programme': Isn't run by a professional with a clear process for growing a business or a clear process for facilitating a mastermind group Doesn't have enough tried-and-tested processes in place; things are made up as it goes along (AKA "real-time R&D") Doesn't tie people in through a financial commitment Doesn't create huge expectations Tends towards being a social event if the results-focus wanes. On the other hand, a high price point anticipates a high-quality offering that delivers on the promise. The high price point keeps the following out of the room: Cheapskates Free-loaders Basket cases A premium price attracts people who: look for like-minded and ambitious people are able to afford to invest (time and money) in the growth of their business are looking for support from experts and colleagues want to be working with an 'expert' is their field using | OP | OP OB | 3,079,455 |
who's a brilliant actor as well, and he made something out of that movie, which was a complete mess. He took it and he found his place, because he wasn't involved in any of that weird black/white dynamic. There were all these things that I didn't understand were happening or were allowed to happen, and not everybody was happy with those choices that Denzel had made, but no one stopped him. But Russell could come and hang out in my trailer, and we'd talk a little bit, and then he just said, "You know, I'm just doing what I'm doing." He was really funny, because he decided to terrorize me as Sid 6.7 [Crowe's villain android character] and started decorating my trailer every day. I'd come to work, and my trailer would have more decorations until finally I had flower boxes and trees, and the interior was like a bodega, with all these sort of Our Lady Of Guadalupe candles and banners and shrines. He went mental. It was really funny. And, uh, then it did get kind of scary. [Laughs.] You know, it's always interesting, I guess is my point, no matter what it is. You always want the movies to turn out to be just the greatest thing ever, but what the audience doesn't realize is that we're still having a life experience, the crew and cast.

if any, and filling water in the tub up to 1 inch; supposedly, if it is about water scarcity or water conservation, the water level can be kept minimum. Then some good detergent or soap, advisably, without acetates, can be used. Solvents should be avoided as they can be detrimental to the tub for they act as adhesive and paint peelers. It is strongly advised to avoid such hostile agents or cleaning products. Ideally, opt for something much safer like a mild soap, body wash or shampoo. The same process can be used to clean entire bathroom suite as well, However, there are special blades available to clean the glasses of shower enclosures . Proper scrubbing exercise from top to bottom, that is, the top and sides and the rim areas should be cleaned first; warm water can be a great idea to do the rinsing and cleaning with a cloth. Later, you can move to the lower or the bottom areas of the tub for cleaning and scrubbing. The next thing to do is, drain the water you'd taken for cleaning, and make sure if everything has been cleaned well, or any place or area is left out and needs a second round of cleaning. If the dirt or grunge or stain is stubborn, you may consider a commercial detergent or dirt remover or cleaner, after ensuring their safety levels and compatibility with acrylics.

The Rise Of Visual Social Media August 28, 2012 Blog posts became Facebook updates and Tumblr posts, which shrunk to Tweets and finally to Instagram or Pinterest. Here's how smart brands are navigating the new visual social-media era. Social media sites like Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest have ushered in visual marketing as the breakout trend for 2012. When it comes to their products, businesses are learning to show, not tell, and visual content sites are fueling our desire for beautiful photography and sensational design. Two years ago, marketers were spreading the maxim that "content is king," but now, it seems, "a picture really is worth a thousand words." "Blogs were one of the earliest forms of social networking where people were writing 1,000 words," says Dr. William J. Ward, Social Media professor at Syracuse University. "When we moved to status updates on Facebook, our posts became shorter. Then micro-blogs like Twitter came along and shortened our updates to 140 characters. Now we are even skipping words altogether and moving towards more visual communication with social-sharing sites like Pinterest." This trend toward the visual is also influenced by the shifting habits of technology users. As more people engage with social media via smartphones, they're discovering that taking a picture "on the go" using a high-resolution phone is much less tedious than typing out a status update on a two-inch keyboard. A 2012 study by ROI Research found that when users engage with friends on social media sites, it's the pictures they | IN | IN IB | 3,239,675 |

JC: From my personal point of view, it is impossible to have revolution without organized popular movements that also have [revolutionary] consciousness, that is, people that have political formation, ideology. There is no doubt that the popular movements are those which are the force behind the processes of political change that are taking place in Venezuela, but also across the continent. The blood that has moved through the veins of this struggle is the blood of the workers, students, peasants, indigenous and the people of barrios like 23 de enero. This change is not just happening in Venezuela. We see the indigenous behind Evo Morales' government in Bolivia, behind Rafael Correa's government in Ecuador, and also students, workers, peasants, humble people who have always resisted. In the 1960s, there was also a generation that fought for socialist revolution in Venezuela; these compaeros were ready to sacrifice their lives. Almost 3000 people lost their lives during this period of revolutionary struggle in the 1960s; they were 'disappeared' or killed by state security forces.

closet thing Dublin has had to a main drag, the city is forging ahead with plans for better defined, walkable streets; compact and varied home choices to appeal to millennials and empty-nest baby boomers; new arts, entertainment, and shopping; and an upgraded park system. In short, Dublin hopes to move from a 20th-century suburb to one that can flourish in the 21st century. While Wirtz's example lies outside the designated corridor, it is nearby; and great planning ideas can be contagious. The Bridge Street corridor's retrofit will all be infill and redevelopment, slowing the spread of sprawl onto rural land. In fact, much of the redevelopment, especially in the early phases, is likely to take place within the target corridor on what are now giant corporate parking lots (see above), not all that different in scale from the one chosen by Wirtz to illustrate the new approach to walkways. I know of at least one advanced feasibility study being undertaken by a nationally-known development firm to help a large company in Dublin consider developing its surface parking lot. Meanwhile, the city continues to do its part by updating its zoning code for the corridor with a hybrid form-based system , coupled with concurrent changes in the entitlement process.

What's more, they've all been run by a small group of very smart people running out of the Cabinet Office, who have quietly set up what is effectively a randomised trials unit in government. There are quite a few people in the civil service who seem to be on board for all this, so it will be interesting to see if the idea catches on. Anyway, I think (I hope!) that the paper is readable and straightforward, like the Ladybird Book of Randomised Policy Trials, and I really hope you'll enjoy reading it. It's a good primer on basic research methods, and on how to do a trial properly in any domain, with clear examples taken from the real world of medicine, business, teaching, job centres, web design, and more.

I did a search once (don't even remember what I queried) and pulled up email messages from several people to others. These were private emails to a party I was not privy to.

a bipartisan cause. Both parties could put their energy into increasing turnout for their side. Instead, the Republicans who litigate against early voting -- and in favor of voter ID -- talk about following the rules, even though the rules they are crafting have such self-serving ends, and inveigh against voter fraud, even though in-person vote stealing almost never actually occurs . In Miami-Dade, the weekend chaos was the result of the Republican mayor's response to litigation over a state law that stopped early voting on the Sunday before the election . That's right: There used to be more opportunities to vote in Florida and now there are fewer. Democrats went to court over the weekend over extending early voting in Broward and Palm Beach counties as well as Miami-Dade. (Does anyone else feel like just listing the names of these counties brings on a Bush v. Gore migraine?) The Democrats went to court after Gov. Rick Scott, a Republican, refused to extend early voting despite all the complaints about long lines and voters who were giving up and leaving. Scott claimed that "the process was running smoothly," the New York Times reported . He's also the guy who pushed through the state law cutting back early voting from 14 days to eight, as well as eliminating it altogether this past Sunday. (The polls only ended up open on Sunday in some places because of the lines and snafus on Saturday.) Republicans also insisted in cutting back on early voting | IP | IP | 348,356 |
A little bit saucy I sometimes think that the difference between average food and excellent food is pretty simple - sauces. Be they a splash of lemon juice and olive oil, a spicy chili and tomato number, or a light and delicious gravy (or jus) with a piece of meat, I reckon you can elevate pretty well anything by dressing it, somehow. Often, it is as simple as deglazing a pan you have used to cook a piece of beef, pork or chicken in. I would generally use white wine, or lemon juice, or chicken stock, or some combination of the three for white meat, and red wine or beef stock for beef - just whip out the meat and let it rest (somewhere warm, use tinfoil to keep the heat in if you wish), and reduce what's in the pan over a medium heat, seasoning and maybe adding a little butter to create a silky, flavoursome sauce that perfectly complements the meat. I like these sort of sauces to be reasonably thin, but concentrated, so don't hold back on the seasoning, and there is no need to add a thickening agent such as cornflour. Generally, I would strain it, and mostly I would pour it on the plate under the meat, so as not to spoil the appearance of the meat's (hopefully!) perfectly caramelised outer crust - it just looks better than tipping it over. The other sauce I have been really digging lately is a spicy chili tomato | HI | HI RE | 1,785,753 |
I kept my cool, and got through school, regardless of this. I didn't do very well on final exams, which affected my life greatly. At age 18 I was desperatly looking for work, which I never had any contact or luck from. I managed to save some money, I got from job center to get my own place. Which I did, and failed to pay rent, so I was ultimatly forced to live with the one friend I had, his name was Mac, we knew each other from the foster home we used to share. I didn't want to feel like a burden and left, and lived homeless for a few days, then went back to foster for a couple of years, age 26, I got a job at retailer, which I was fired from today, I have worked there for a year.

about the character of Jesus rather than to be an exhaustive theology of forgiveness. Bell, however, constructs on the basis of this verse a claim that, ?Forgiveness is unilateral. God isn?t waiting for us to get it together, to clean up, shape up, get up ? God has already done it? (p.189). Bell reserves a place for faith in some sense, but it is simply about accepting God?s love and does not apparently need to contain any belief in actual facts about God or Jesus: I believe that the indestructible love of God is an unfolding, dynamic reality and that every single one of us is endlessly being invited to trust, accept, believe, embrace, and experience it. Whatever words you find helpful for describing this act of trust, Jesus invites us to say yes to this love of God, again and again and again . (p.194) The belief that saving faith does not necessarily require any beliefs about Jesus is also clear in another passage where Bell writes: But in reading all of the passages in which Jesus uses the word ?hell,? what is so striking is that people believing the right or wrong things isn?t his point. He?s often not talking about ?beliefs? as we think of them ? he?s talking about anger and lust and indifference. He?s talking about the state of his listeners? hearts, about how they conduct themselves, how they interact with their neighbours, about the kind of effect they have on the world .

stop the damaging social effects they were causing. The boarding grammar school I went to became grossly homosexual with more than half the boys engaging in homosexuality, encouraged by one or two teachers. So those who pretend to be teaching us how to live, did and do *not* have that blessing within them that we should grow up strong and healthy - they are just selfish hirelings who want to avoid scandal and have a nice job... Many of our politicians come from such schools, so perhaps we should have room in our hearts to pity them. Also do you recall Michael Jackson dangling his infant son over the balcony held by the ankle? That was a compliance-taunt phenomenon where Michael was so frightened, so self-conscious from the screaming hatred of the mass media trouncing he was getting, that he started hypnotically responding to the coercion to behave like a child abuser. Basically he was reactively interpreting the hate-talk as a command to *be* a child abuser, and also to display his anger... Had he continued in life much longer he was in danger of becoming a real paedophile because not being allowed to be anything else..

When I did that, my blog's newsfeed has a group of posts from the interest list together but in random order -- weird -- must have something to do with the fact that you aren't supposed to be able to subscribe to an interest list from a blog's page.} I'm with the others commenting about how frustrating it is to not be able to create interest lists from blog FB pages.

EU debate has almost exclusively focused on the crisis and the response to it (including Finland's involvement). This issue has underpinned the polarisation of Finnish politics and the rise of an explicitly Eurosceptic party for two main reasons. Firstly, the start of the crisis coincided with a major leadership crisis within two of the three largest parties that left the National Coalition Party the only one able to face the attack on the traditional consensus on the EU by the True Finns. Secondly, Eurosceptic voices were able to subvert the standard lines of the debate by arguing that they were defending established EU law against acts that apparently went against the current interpretation of EU treaties. These arguments are built upon the two main dimensions of the Finnish debate over the eurozone crisis. The first dimension concerns the widely shared argument that the economies of eurozone countries have not been converging as expected within the single currency. In response, the Finnish governmental elites have signaled their trust in tighter rules and better supervision of compliance with them. The Finnish government's views have been largely in line with German policies, and Finland has felt itself to be a natural member of the group of 'Triple A' countries that are in favour of deepening political union (within limits) to allow these tighter rules and better supervision.

The most important command An online Bible Study course by Barrie Wetherill about the life of Jesus. This book is in EasyEnglish Level B. Use the links below for other online Bible Study books and commentaries that will help you. Or go to the Word List, which explains words with a *star. The Sadducees had nothing more to say. Now the leaders of the *Pharisees came to Jesus. One leader was a man who really knew God's law. He asked Jesus which was the most important command. The *Pharisees often discussed this. There are 613 commands in the law. They wanted to obey them all. (But often they only obeyed their own ideas about the commands). Jesus' reply was beautiful. He spoke words from the *Old Testament (Deuteronomy 6:5 and Leviticus 19:18). Matthew 22:37-40 'Love the Lord your God: with all your heart and with all your *soul and with all your mind.' This is the first and most important command. And the second command is like it: 'Love your neighbour as you love yourself.' This is what the Law and the *Prophets really mean. Jesus was saying what we must do. It is our duty to love God and to love other people. We must love very sincerely. This is the most important thing in our life. Of course, the *Pharisees did not like to speak about love. They thought that to obey the law very accurately was more important.

I love the fact that she's a lesbian, she's got a girlfriend, and the girlfriend's got issues whether she's gay or straight." And Connie's just trying to make her way through the world like a regular person. We see her in her bar with friends, we see her at work as a nurse, we see her apartment and her regular life.

to speculation, but the recent rise to over $80 per barrel again has to make people think. The coal mine explosions around the world and the Gulf oil catastrophe can't have hurt. Peak oil and net energy are serious issues. The sooner the business community comes to grip with them, the better the chances of a smooth, or at least less than calamitous, transition. I gave a presentation in San Francisco on Thursday of last week, and my slide-deck and talk dealt with the same issues. I explained the history of California transport systems, and how the current system was built out on 14 dollar oil between 1945 and 1970. I used historical and current data for counties like San Bernardino, to illustrate overall economic sensitivity to higher gasoline prices. In addition, I suggested in a more academic way that California as a culture currently had no transport plan outside of continuing automobile/highway build out. As a backgrounder, I showed that the developing world has turned to coal, not oil, to fund its growth because there is simply not enough of a supply response in oil to fund developing world growth rates which demand significant increases in energy supply. By the time I asked: do you think California can fund growth using oil, from this point forward? my work was essentially done.

was Alonso incidently. Since you say third slowest, please also tell us which one of Caterham, Marussia, HRT is faster than the Ferrari. Perhaps you can also convince Alonso to move to that team next year. And with the 4th slowest car, he might just become WDC next year. No doubt about it. Vettel by a mile. Yes Kimi stuck it and finally topped the podium, but pit lane to podium?Phenomenal. Alonso had a great drive and, as usual, squeezed all of the red out of the Ferrari. Webber was a bit wild out there. Yet another weak start. I just don't get how he hasn't gotten the start down after so many years. While Vettel's drive was impressive, it was helped tremendously by safety cars and no one can deny that he has by far the best package on the track. So, my pick has to be Rikknen. Sub-par Lotus and a victory. If you're in doubt, just look at Grosjean's performance before retiring. After the second safety car left the track...Those few laps were stellar: Alonso looked like a snail in a better car than Rikknen's Lotus (in India Massa's Ferrari outpaced Rikknen's DRS boosted Lotus). While retiring, Grosjean was in 5th place, in a very long stint from the end of the pack (after the incident where he wasn't at fault).

Heat is theme for the Momaya Annual Review 2012. First Place "Encephalartos" impressed all of the judges. The heady, fertile world of the botannical garden provides a sharp contrast with the dessicated spectre of the protagonist's wife, who somehow manages to loom over the story despite never actually appearing. In Second Place "Whisky and Honey", dark deeds and betrayal mix with tenderness and heroism for a powerful story set in the oppressive heat of an urban summer. The protagonist's personal history is revealed, carefully and cleverly, to build sympathy for a character who at first seems unredeemable in the Third Place "The Interview". The thirteen stories in this collection treat the theme in unexpected and varied ways that deliver an entertaining reading experience. Greed is theme for the Momaya Annual Review 2011. The entries for the 2011 Short Story Competition came from around the globe.

I love thee to the level of everyday's Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light. I love thee freely as men strive for Right; I love thee purely, as the turn from Praise. I love thee with a passion put to use In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith.

I have an AVRISP mkii here that I can use as well. Another question, I was using the older version of serialosc before. Was it serialosc that was seeing the mk as an i2c device? Or was that because of the serial format.

it means the world to Bob. Then Bob's life changes dramatically, catapulting him from would-be mass murderer to hero. As he is loading his gun and once again trying to work up the courage to execute his own murderous plans, he drops the last bullet (the one meant for himself - gotta love the symbolism), and while he is under his desk trying to retrieve it, the guy in the next cubicle steals his thunder, so to speak. After exchanging some "how did it feel?" notes with the guy, Bob acts to save the life of Venessa, becoming a hero in the process. All of the sudden, he is given a cushy vice president job upstairs, his former tormentors become all buddy-buddy with him, and everyone is suddenly nice to him - everyone but Venessa, whose life has undergone even more drastic changes than Bob's as a result of her injury. When she demands one favor from him, Bob feels he has no choice but to reluctantly agree. And so begins a journey of two lost souls depending upon one another for survival. If you're expecting some kind of fairy tale ending, you can forget about that right now. Don't expect the story to come wrapped up with a pretty little bow, either; in fact, don't even read too much into my limited plot summary. This is definitely one of those "what the --?

it must be grounded completely a priori in the understanding: If we thought to escape these toilsome enquiries by saying that experience continually presents examples of such regularity among experiences and so affords abundant opportunity of abstracting the concept of cause, and at the same time of verifying the objective validity of such a concept, we should be overlooking the fact that the concept of cause can never arise in this manner. It must either be grounded completely a priori in the understanding, or must be entirely given up as a mere phantom of the brain. For this concept makes strict demand that something, A, should be such that something else, B, follows from it necessarily and in accordance with an absolutely universal rule. Appearances do indeed present cases from which a rule can be obtained accord-ing to which something usually happens, but they never prove the sequence to be necessary. To the synthesis of cause and effect there belongs a dignity which cannot be empirically expressed, namely, that the effect not only succeeds upon the cause, but that it is posited through it and arises out of it. This strict universality of the rule is never a characteristic of empirical rules; they can acquire through induction only comparative universality, that is, extensive applicability. If we were to treat pure concepts of understanding as merely empirical products, we should be making a complete change in [the manner of] their employment.

Foley says he's glad it's out in the open because he took the liberty of having a team meeting on Miz TV. Foley then introduces the rest of the team he will captain at Survivor Series: Kofi Kingston, Team Hell No, and Randy Orton. Foley wants to open up the lines of communication, but no one talks initially. Daniel Bryan and Kane take a microphone, and they argue over who will start. Bryan says that Kane is attempting to apologize for his constant insinuation that he is the weak link of their tag team. Kane says he just wanted to thank The Miz for being a great tag team partner on Raw. Kane's back feels so much better not having to carry somebody, and he looks at Bryan. Bryan says without him, he'd be roaming basements and scaring little children. Kane says he does that regardless. They then argue over who the Tag Team Champion is. Kofi Kingston attempts to broker peace, but The Miz cuts him off. Miz says he attempted to shake his hand last week, and Kingston kicked him in the face. Kingston says if Miz doesn't take two steps back, he'll do it again. Foley wants team unity, and he says the voice of reason may turn out to be Randy Orton. Orton says he's spat in Foley's face numerous times, Foley has thrown him into thumbtacks, but even though that happened between them, he still likes Foley more than anyone else in the ring right | NARRATIVE | NA SR | 3,280,602 |
to observe the rules of war, since obeying the regulations separated the "men" from the "brutes". Conquering the riches and property of an enemy was regarded as legitimate reason for war in itself. Women were included with "property", since they were considered under the lawful ownership of a man, whether a father, husband, slave master, or guardian. In this context, the rape of a woman was considered a property crime committed against the man who owned the woman. The ancient Greeks considered war rape of women "socially acceptable behaviour well within the rules of warfare", and warriors considered the conquered women "legitimate booty, useful as wives, concubines , slave labor or battle-camp trophy ". [ 10 ] In the Middle Ages, and until the 19th century, this attitude and practice prevailed, and the legal protection of women in war time related directly to the legal protection women were granted in peace times. In medieval Europe, women were considered as an inferior gender by law. [ 25 ] Catholic Church sought to prevent rape during feudal warfare through the institution of Peace and Truce of God which discouraged soldiers from attacking women and civilians in general and through the propagation of a Christianized version of chivalry ideal of a knight who protected innocents and did not engage in lawlessness. According to Fadl, Medieval Islamic military jurisprudence laid down severe penalties for those who committed rape.

after fully exploring how time is emergent from motion, he still insists of describing how units of time, "worthy of the name," can be irreducibly defined. That he wins the contest strongly suggests this bias toward an ideal is widespread in science. I do agree with the first part of his essay, which you commented positively on, that the reality we perceive is emergent from and predicated on lower orders, but cannot be predicted by them. It is this seeming contradiction between predication and prediction which seems to be a source of frustration for those trying to understand reality and the tendency is to create connections which obscure deeper truths and lead to a false sense of understanding. A very old example of this with regard to time occurred to me this morning. Is was quite clear and there was a thin sliver of a moon before sunrise. While it is hard to obscure days and years, the concept of months as cycles of the moon was been seriously obscured by making them concurrent with the year. Think about that. Does it really make sense to say months have to begin and end with the year and be cut op into a specific number of days? No, but it is convenient for making calendars. Now think how this subtly affects our understanding of time, in that it all can be fit into some neat set of units and thus reflect some larger concept of time.

The History of Mundoolun... The name is derived from the Wangerriburra word Mundunlgunn meaning death adder. In 1842 William Humphries and Paul and Clem Lawless, took up a depasturing licence on land on the Albert River. Humphries took up Mundoolun and the brothers took up Nindooinbah . In 1844, Humphries sold part of the property to his second cousin and her husband, Ann and John Collins. By 1847 the Collins family was in full possession of the property. John and Ann Collins settled at Mundoolun in a slab hut in 1846. The couple had five children. The family went on to own Tamrookum , Rathdownie and Nindooinba . Sons Robert and William later formed the North Australian Pastoral Company in the Northern Territory. A world tour by the brothers led to their interest in the preservation of national parks. Robert later became the Independent Member for Albert in the Queensland Legislative Assembly, and Queensland branch president of the Royal Geographic Society in an effort to further his dream of establishing national parks. He did not live to see the proclamation of the Lamington National park in 1915, which he and Romeo Lahey had worked towards. John Collins died in August 1898 and Ann in January 1901. The family then commissioned the design and construction of a church in honour of their parents. John Buckeridge who was the official Diocesan Architect of Brisbane designed the church. Construction was supervised by Robin Dodds, who designed another important local church, All Saints at | IN | IN DT | 3,302,208 |

To this day I still cannot understand the intelligence behind the Accumulated Yellow card rule. If you are unfamiliar, let me explain. If an player is booked ten times from the opening day of the season -- to the second Sunday in April, he must serve a ban of two Premier League matches. This in all well and good, but when you are in the position of Laurent Koscielny last Sunday, it seems ludicrous that his suspension would have been reduced, had he been shown a red card for a more serious incident. Arsene Wenger spoke about the illogicality of the decision in a press conference before the Wolves match, "As we understand the situation, with a red card he would have been less suspended than one yellow." "It is not completely logical but we have to take it on board and he will be suspended for the next two games." Arsene is completely right, this is a ridiculous rule that needs to be reviewed. The fact that a player can avoid a larger ban by committing a more serious offence is completely against the morals of our beautiful game. The FA live in a wonderful world where anything they say goes, they make more controversial comments that Kenny Dalglish on a bad day.

wikis and forum threads, is quite a feeling to have. It was like 'Shit, few people have laid eyes on any of this.' I think that's what made it so rewarding though; picking up on that very understated blink-and-you'll-miss-it clue and following this crazy idea through to the end, three more times. Something to bear in mind is that HM's brain was running on my girlfriend's netbook (!) so At A Distance isn't an especially demanding game technically. I hooked up the netbook to a bigger screen, linked both machines with an ethernet cable and hey presto! We were cooking. I can see this working if you can get a bunch of like-minded people into a room and let them get stuck in with no interruptions. The problem, I think, is that Expo 'pace' where people pick up, play and put down games so quickly that the required passing on of very specific knowledge in this case is a tall order. It's a fascinating game and one I'm very glad to have shared with HM. Between us we've had some top co-op experiences. I wasn't able to get to this until today, but what a great conversation!

But this new information, and his response to it, is alarming. We don't take last-minute allegations about a front-running candidate lightly; people have been known to dump all sorts of charges into heated races. When we learned about Vasilyeva's allegations on Oct. 13, we did our own research. We spent two hours with Davis and his supporter and advisor, former D5 Supervisor Matt Gonzalez. We realized that allegations without corroboration are just charges, so we tracked down everyone we could find who might know anything about this incident -- and, as we discovered, other similar events. And we have to say: Vasilyeva's account rings true. Davis's categorical denial does not. More than that, we were offended that he in effect threatened with a lawsuit a woman who, at some peril to herself, came forward to tell the public information about someone who is running for elected office. What was the point of that, if not to intimidate her? It's highly unlikely he's going to sue (and drag this whole mess into court).

As citizens we lose a lot of money just by paying taxes alone. Jury duty is just another way to lose more money and precious time, not to mention it's extremely inconvenient. Sure they pay you...their wages would be fantastic for someone in high school with no rent or bills to pay.

many people mistakenly believe that refugees are to blame for our ballooning population. They have been deliberately misled by the major political parties that refugees are somehow the cause of all our population woes, when any well-informed person such as you or I know that refugees have added little to our population growth. However the governments reasoning is that if they can sneakily deflect the whole population growth issue to refugees, they wouldn't have to deal with reducing (note I said reducing, not stopping ) the numbers of the "skilled" immigrants -- the main source of immigration ( mainly New Zealanders, British, Indians and Chinese ) -- which would cause the business community to wring their hands and gnash their teeth in despair because they are not getting cheap off the shelf workers that they do not have to take the time and effort to train. Meanwhile normal Australians' standard of living has dropped because as a result of high population growth housing and other basic services are increasingly unaffordable and infrastructure is inadequate. It is the Australian people who voted in the government -- we are their employers -- therefore they should be putting policies in place that favour normal Australians first and foremost, not business leaders or skilled immigrants.

professional-grade, "high quality" XML parser, when presented this input that I received from some random web site, will stab me in the back and make me go do unspecified things to try to correct the problem by hand. Avery's cheeseball broken XML parser, which certainly doesn't claim to be good or complete, would parse the input just fine. (2) This, an innocent bystander might think, would imply that my parser is the better one to use. But it's not, you see, because, as cdfrey points out : Interoperability is hard. Anyone can write their own parsers. And everyone has. That's why the monstrosity called XML was invented in the first place. It all starts with someone writing a quick and dirty parser, thereby creating their own unique file format whether they realize it or not. (3) And since they probably don't realize it, they don't document it. So the next person comes along, and either has to reverse engineer the parser code, or worse, guess at the format from existing examples. Got it? By creating a permissive parser that just corrects simple input errors, I've made things worse for everybody else. I would make the world a better place if my parser would just reject bad XML, and then everyone would be forced to produce files with valid XML, and that would make life easier for people like me!

KARL MOORE -- This is Karl Moore of the Desautels Faculty of Management at McGill University, Talking Management for The Globe and Mail. Today I am delighted to speak, once again, to Amy Edmondson who is a professor at the Harvard Business School. Amy, you have talked for the last few years about teaming, in fact you have a new book out. What are some of the key things we have learned about teaming and why do you call it teaming? AMY EDMONDSON -- So my book, Teaming: How Organizations Learn, Innovate and Compete in the Knowledge Economy , came out in April and I talk about teaming because the requirement for people in organizations to collaborate across disciplines, across distances, often across hierarchical levels, and even across organizations, is greater then it ever was. And the ability to get stable teams that are well designed, put in place, that are going to learn to practice and work together well for the long term is less and less clear. So, in other words, we need to do a great deal of teaming, we need to collaborate across all these groups to get most of the complicated work done that needs to be done. We rarely have the luxury of stable team structures of people who work together for a long period of time and get good at doing that. KM -- So it's no longer about my team that I have been on for years, that we go out together | SP | SP IT | 130,011 |
