Jason Leonard stirs support within Premiership clubs

NEC Harlequins and England legend Jason Leonard threw down the gauntlet today to Zurich Premiership club masc | ots when he launched the Wooden Spoon Mascots' Challenge. The scheme, which is a joint initiative between Wooden Spoon and the Zurich Premiership rugby clubs, will raise money to set-up rugby coaching programmes for socially disadvantaged children in inner city areas.

It's been exactly one week since and were nominated by their parties to run for the General Assembly seat Mike Lawlor occupied for 24 years. A special election will be held on Feb. 22, giving candidates a total of six weeks to campaign compared to the six to 12 months for a regular election.
The candidates are racing up and down the trail to reach as many voters as possible. Their truncated campaign time is further challenged by the bitter-cold and icy weather and shorter days.
There will be no more fundraisers. Both are using the state's public financing and are not allowed to receive donations once they've raised the mandated $3,750 from a minimum of 113 contributors to qualify for the $19,500 award. Both report they've jumped through that hoop.
As far as campaign issues, Albis' and Monaco's are nearly identical: cut state spending; fix the state deficit; maintain the town's $20 million in state aid for the schools; create jobs; and draw businesses to the state.
Popular thought is this election will come down to which party gets out the most voters.
Barely off the trail from her | unsuccessful bid last November to unseat Lawlor, Monaco still has her campaign shwag and is ready to roll. She said she's put six or seven of her signs from last year on Coe Avenue, Short Beach Road, North High Street, Foxon Road and Silver Sands Road.
She said though a shorter campaign season has its drawbacks, especially in the winter, she can see a plus for constituents.

Pakistan's most loved columnist is no more
Cowasjee, whose weekly columns appeared in the influential Dawn newspaper during 1988-2011, was admitted to a hospital in Karachi more than a week ago with a chest ailment.
Besides his columns laced with his acerbic wit and his forthright take on pressing issues facing Pakistan, Cowasjee was known for his social activism and philanthropy.
He was born into a prominent Parsi business family of Karachi on April 13, 1926.
He joined his family's shipping business after completing his education from Bai Virbaiji Soparivala Parsi High School and DJ Sindh Government Science College.
He had two children with his late wife Nancy Dinshaw.
In December 2011, Cowasjee decided to stop writing his weekly column.
"Now, old at 85, tired, and disillusioned with a country that just cannot pull itself together in any way and get on with life in this day and age | , I have decided to call it a day," he wrote in his farewell column.
The Cowasjee Foundation has funded the higher education of numerous students.
Several of Karachi's hospitals too are beneficiaries of the Foundation.
Many Pakistanis took to Twitter to pay tribute to Cowasjee.
"Very few people know Ardeshir Cowasjee quietly tried to support upright, young (journalists) financially," tweeted Abbas Nasir, a former editor of Dawn.

Until recently, most of the major Internet search engines kept detailed and potentially personally identifiable records of their customers' searches indefinitely, raising concerns from privacy advocates and constant pressure from U.S. and European regulators.
Things are looking up for search engine users, however, as large internet search companies are aggressively competing with each other to offer better privacy protection
to users, according to a report published today by the Center for Democracy and Technology (CDT).
"We see a stepped-up commitment to privacy from the companies, and we believe they are starting to see privacy as a market differentiator, and that, in fact, is starting to spark some competition about privacy," CDT chief executive Leslie Harris told reporters at a morning briefing in Washington.
The report assessed the privacy policies of the five | major Internet search companies, and while it acknowledged that there are legitimate reasons for companies to retain some search records for a limited time, it also called for search companies to balance their advertising needs with user privacy.
The report praises many of the recent search policy changes from major players in the market. Google and Microsoft, for example, plan to keep search data 18 months before deleting it, while Yahoo plans to hold such data for 13 months. Moreover, Ask.comís new AskEraser tool will offer | [

As noted below, the reliably anti-Israel Guardian has, to its credit, corrected a misleading headline about Israel, which it blamed on a "serious editing error."
While this is slightly encouraging news, it hardly suggests that the British newspaper is committed to keeping the record clear of outlandishly false headlines. Still unchanged, for example, is the following series of Guardian headlines about the Palestinian "Prisoners' Document":
• "Hamas performs about-turn on Israeli state; Document recognises Israel's right to exist" (6/21/06)
• "Climbdown as Hamas agrees to Israeli state" ( | 6/22/06)
• "Hamas takes step to recognize Israel" (6/28/06)
These headlines are not only broadly false — ever since the Guardian trumpeted Hamas's "climbdown," the terror group has continued to repeatedly and explicitly make clear it does not accept a two-state solution or Israel's right to exist — but are also patently untrue in their more specific context.

Many things had to happen before DeMarre Carroll once again became a fill-in starter for the Utah Jazz.
Before Marvin Williams went down with concussion-like symptoms last week in New Orleans, Carroll, the Jazz’s resident and self-proclaimed "junkyard dog," endured a lifelong string of tragedies, maladies and misjudgments. But what Carroll believes defines him is the way he overcame those.
» In 14 games this season Carroll averages a career-high 5.8 points per game.
» His assignments are varied, including guarding Chris Paul on Monday.
» He scored a career-high 17 points on 6-of-6 shooting Nov. 16 in Philadelphia.
"When adversity hits you," he said, | "you got to try to push through it. And I think that’s what I do."
Last month, sitting at his locker several rings deep inside Philadelphia’s Wells Fargo Center, the Jazz’s affable, dreadlocked backup forward reflected on a recent stretch in which he did not play in five of the Jazz’s six games.
"This is probably the toughest thing that’s ever happened to me," said Carroll, who is with his fourth team in four seasons.

One of the buzziest angles of Sunday’s fast approaching Grammy Awards is the Beach Boys reunion … and how it’s being “sullied” by making them share the stage with corporate pop rockers Maroon 5 and indie-ish earwormers Foster the People. As far as we can tell, the thread tying these bands together is that all three are … bands?
To be fair, sometimes the Grammy Cabal gets it right and their pairings lead to legendary moments (e.g. Tina Turner with Beyoncé in 2008; Bruce, Dave Grohl et al for “London Calling” in 2003). But often, the combinations are perplexing and lackluster. And quite frankly, those are more fun to revisit. So here are five truly head-scratching Grammy grouping misfires. Hold out hope that we won’t have to add the Beach Boys extravaganza to the list in a few years.
We might as well start at the bottom, with this truly awful amalgamation of trends gone haywire. There’s | nothing inherently wrong with Auto-tune, or combining rock with hip hop, but somehow this performance managed to mangle them both individually before combining them into just the biggest pile of crap.

For many DREAMers who find themselves cautiously jubilant about the president’s new deferred action immigration policy, one sticking point has continually been mentioned as an obstacle.
The $465 fee.
In an effort to remove this impediment, organizations across the country continue to spring up with the mission of raising money for the fees or giving loans to the undocumented youth.
Author and liberal activist Tony Diaz partnered with Jacob Monty, a Mexican-American lawyer who has bundled and raised money for George W. Bush and John McCain, to co-found Protectors of the Dream, a Houston-based non-profit which has raised $80,000 in two weeks for eligible youth.
“This has been a student movement for over a decade,” Diaz says in energized tones. “But now they get to see that the business community is behind them as well.”
The $80,000 is | an astronomical amount in such a short period of time and will help 160 eligible students. The youth should apply by August 31 – the process includes an essay — and the first round of grants will be released to them by September 17

The Shepherd's Guild
The Shepherd's Guild is a service organization for Orthodox laypersons with the purpose to provide outreach through service (Diakonia) as "commanded by the Gospel (Matthew 25:31-46: James 1:27) and promulgated by St. Basil the Great of Caesarea and St. John the Almsgiver of Alexandria."
The Guild was chartered on September 30, 1999, as a nonprofit organization under the laws of the State of South Carolina with the purpose: to raise funds to build an Eastern Orthodox Church (Chapel) in the Anderson area, to foster fellowship among its members, to promote pan-Orthodox activities, and to engage in humanitarian efforts. On August 17, 2001, the Office of the Secretary of State of South Carolina re-classified the Shepherd's Guild as a religious organization. The Shepherd's Guild is registered as a tax exempt 501(c)(3) charity with the Internal Revenue Service.
A Building Fund for the Paracletos Mon | astery, Antreville, SC, was established by the Guild to assist in the building of the chapel of Panagia Soumela at the monastery. The main fundraising activity for the building fund is the Anderson Greek Festival. In March 2011, the Monastery ended its connection with the Anderson Greek Festival.

The House of Representatives yesterday said it is not worried by the refusal of President Goodluck Jonathan to respect its resolution asking him to suspend the removal of oil subsidy.

Following the removal of subsidy, the pump price of petroleum jumped from N65 to N144.
Ogene said the House had to approve its votes and proceedings of Sunday’s emergency session to enable the National Assembly bureaucracy transmit the resolution to the executive in order to avoid excuses from that quota.

Challenging behaviours are often shown by survivors of traumatic brain injury, especially those with severe injuries. Challenging behaviours are a significant obstacle in the achievement of a successful rehabilitative outcome. A meta-analysis was conducted and it was found that interventions based on operant conditioning techniques were effective in treating challenging behaviours. However, the treatment outcome of learning based interventions can be enhanced by predetermining the function served by the challenging behaviour. Various functional assessment methods can be used, which were analysed in this study. A detailed descriptive analysis was conducted with nine participants. The findings showed that challenging behaviours were precipitated and maintained by social contingencies. Further analyses revealed that functionally equivalent challenging behaviours were | structured either hierarchically or sequentially. Identification of precursor behaviours can facilitate the rehabilitation process. A structured descriptive assessment was used for the first time with the traumatic brain injury population.

The interaction of a discrete breather with Rayleigh-Jeans distributed low-amplitude phonons is studied for the discrete nonlinear Schrödinger equation. A statistical analysis gives a criterion for | growth or decay of the breather, depending on its phase frequency, and on the chemical potential of the phonons. If the breather exceeds a critical amplitude, the breather accumulates wave action from the phonons and grows. If the breather amplitude is smaller, the phonons erode the breather.

The lack of affordable housing in Kent, might prompt many to consider finding a flat or house to let instead.
Figures published in the government's 'Housing the Nation' report confirms that the region will'miss out' on thousands of new homes after targets were cut, according to yoursevenoaks.co.uk.

Someone suggested Eagles must spend a few hundred grand on wages already and once given over a £Million by SKY with higher crowds they will be able to afford the salary cap. So why can't they compete? Why do they need all this money?
Then Oiseau said Les Catalans plan to spend £5.6M in Superleague this coming year.
Clearly the wage bill is not all a club need to cover in SL
There ara couple of excellent accountants on her with a handle on the difference between what you need in SL to compete and what you need in the CC.
Whatever way you look at it the difference is very large...........
All I ask people to do is tell me how Sheffield will cover it. Mr. Keighley please note.....
The Sheffield club feel that they can progress to the point of applying for a SL licence in the future, I am sure they have their own accountants and financial plans to deal with the level of finance needed for SL. If they don't, obviously they won't get a licence.

A few weeks ago, Liz and I were doing girlie stuff, which almost always includes a brief stop in Bath & Body works – the ultimate in girlie stores.
As always, they were having a special…
Their specials are usually along the lines of “how can we get people to buy more things that they don’t need?” Buy 2, get one free. Five for $35 (normally $9 each). Buy $45 and get a $10 gift certificate for a later time.
It was this one that nailed us. Liz was getting a few things. I was | getting a few things. Put together, they added up to $38. Ish. So we picked up a tube of lip-gloss each and I got a sample size of a bath gel that I really liked.
I hadn’t picked it up before, since I was mildly dubious about a shower gel that sounded more like a marinade for a chicken dish. But I tried it in the shower the next time, and I love it. It smells very clean and fresh.
But I couldn’t quite get the idea of Citrus-basil chicken out of my head.

I've enjoyed reading Neil Gaiman's thoughts on fragile things.
"Stories, like people and butterflies and songbirds' eggs and human hearts and dreams, are also fragile things, made up of nothing stronger or more lasting than twenty-six letters and a handful of punctuation marks. Or they are words on the air, composed of sounds and ideas-abstract, invisible, gone once they've been spoken- and what would be more frail than that? But some stories, small, simple ones about setting out on adventures or people doing wonders, tales of miracles and monsters, have outlasted all the people who told them, and some of them have outlasted the lands in which they were created." - Neil Gaiman, Fragile Things
Exquisite porcelain pieces by Atsum Izumi

Portugal is one of the oldest states in Europe. It traces its modern history to A.D. 1140 when, following a 9-year rebellion against the King of Leon-Castile, Afonso Henriques, the Count of Portugal, became the country's first king, Afonso I. Afonso and his successors expanded their territory southward, capturing Lisbon from the Moors in 1147. The approximate present-day boundaries were secured in 1249 by Afonso III.

Manchester City 1-1 Real Madrid: Hosts crash out despite Aguero leveller
Roberto Mancini's team is eliminated from the Champions League after drawing its third consecutive home encounter in the group stages
A late Sergio Aguero penalty gave the scoreline some respectability for Roberto Mancini’s team but a sober evening showed how far the club has to go to compete on the highest club stage with a team of Real’s caliber.
|Bet:||Returns:||Sociedad $24.00||Draw $34.00||Real Madrid $28.00|

Old drivers can compare car insurance conveniently now
Drivers that are of 70 years or above are not considered as a great risk by the insurers, revealed the latest survey report this month. Car insurance clients that have more than 50 car insurance policies are seen as lesser risk drivers as compared to young people. The insurance policies for older drivers are also cheaper as they are less likely to make claim for accidents.
The Institute for Advanced Motorists, a driving charity has conducted a study that showed that as the drivers grow older there is no significant increase in claims. Around 8% of these drivers in UK are 70 years and above but more importantly, around 4% of accidents taking place in Britain involve older drivers. Director of IAM further stated that this report is contradictory to common belief that says that old drivers are danger on roads.
While insurance market for people over 50 years and is dominated by selected brands, there are some who also try to break the monotony and attract these drivers by offering innovative polices. There are so many insurance providers who do not have any upper age limit for getting the car insured. Latest figures reveal that car insurers are playing safe by pitching in these drivers. They cut down on the risks of claims manifolds by covering the vehicle of | old drivers.
Now old drivers have a reason to rejoice as they can get in touch with the range of dealers online and also compare car insurance quotes without any botheration. The range of options will help you to buy the car insurance policy for your vehicle in no time and also without burning a hole in your pocket. Whether you are looking for | [

Today, being Day Against DRM, I thought I would write a little bit about it, and the reasons why I think it is severely flawed, both in reasoning and implementation. DRM stands for Digital Rights Management, but as the campaign at DefectiveByDesign.org points out, a more apt description would be ‘Digital Restrictions Management.’ Digital content providers (e.g. Amazon, Sony, Apple) use DRM to limit the ways you can use the stuff you buy from them (e.g. Music, | eBooks, DVD/BluRay). This is why we say that it is defective by design. A decision is made to encumber the content or device with restrictions.

Internet in Chile
From Chile Wiki
Broadband is named banda ancha in Chile. To get roughly the same bandwidth you'd pay about $30/mo in Northern America or Europe you'll have to pay $80 here, and fiber or ADSL2 service are still rare (fiber might become a more widely viable option around 2012/2013, based on announced rollouts).

CSN writer Reuben Frank dropped somewhat of a bombshell on Sunday afternoon when he tweeted out that the Eagles had interviewed Brian Billick for the coaching gig back on Monday. Wow, I mean wow. I didn’t see that coming.
You can go here to read Roob’s full story.
Apparently Lurie, Howie, and Smolenski went down to Maryland and met with Billick for about 8 hours. They came away impressed and consider him a candidate. So let’s talk about Billick. I’ll be up front with this fact…if the Eagles did hire him, I’d be disappointed.
One huge point has to be discussed. Billick the announcer and Billick the coach are two very different people. Billick is an awful announcer. He made dumb statement after dumb statement on Sunday. The capper was when he noted after the Falcons winning FG that this win now validates Seattle as the #1 seed in the NFC. That was a very back and forth game, but getting the winner and loser confused is not good in such a dramatic moment.
| If Lurie or anyone judged Billick off his TV work, the guy would have zero shot at anything. Heck, I’m shocked he keeps his TV job. He literally brings nothing to the table. I told Jimmy Bama once on a podcast that it is shocking that Billick coached Ray Lewis, Jamal Lewis, Tony Siragusa, Deion Sanders, Chris McAl | [

Hi there,
Its great news about the HL although we have as yet had no official notification of that or the meeting on the 5th!
I am concerned that I am unable to attend although John may go if he can.It seems important that we have a voice and a collective one if possible if there are issues we feel strongly about.Below are my issues and I would be interested if others agree,disagree or have more to add.If John isnt able to go I am wondering about writing to the administrator with the points I want raising.From my understanding of other such meetings with Ballester they | are in Spanish and very much Ballester led.

Charles de Lint -- An Appreciation
It's difficult to review Charles de Lint without getting personal and panegyrical for, as is the case with most if not all of his readers, I feel as if I have had a close relationship with him and his characters for many years now.

It's not just that he and his artist wife appear to show up as characters, most obviously in | the Kelledys and Christy Riddell and Saskia, while more subtly in others; it's that de Lint's voice echoes through every aspect of his writing -- dialogue, description, plot, theme -- with the immanence of the hidden creator who is yet divined in the nature of his creation.

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Jim Chanos, a short-seller who gained a measure of fame for anticipating the collapse of Enron, said in an interview with Reuters TV that he is still betting against the shares of Hewlett Packard and also sees problems in the retail sector.

2And the house that king Solomon built for Jehovah was sixty cubits in length, and twenty in breadth, and thirty cubits in height.
3And the porch, in front of the temple of the house, was twenty cubits in length, in front of the house broadways, and ten cubits was its breadth, in front of the house.
4And for the house he made closed windows with fixed lattices.
5And against the wall of the house he built floors round about, against the walls of the house, round about the temple and the oracle; and he made side-chambers round about.
6The lowest floor was | five cubits broad, and the middle one was six cubits broad, and the third was seven cubits broad; for in the thickness of the wall of the house he made resets round about outside, that nothing should be fastened in the walls of the house.
7And the house, when it was being built, was built of stone entirely made ready before it was brought thither; so that there was neither hammer nor axe nor any tool of iron heard in the house while it was being built.
8The entrance to the side-chambers of the middle floor was in the right side of the house; and | [

Rupert Murdoch's News Corp.'s British publishing division is under pressure as journalists being investigated may be asked to give up bosses' names by police.
LONDON – News Corp.'s News International, Rupert Murdoch's British publishing division, could face corporate corruption charges over alleged bribery of public officials.
According to a report in The Telegraph Friday, the possibility emerged after it wasreported that journalists being investigated over alleged payments to public officials are being put under pressure to implicate senior executives at News International.
More than 20 journalists at News International's tabloid The Sun have been arrested as part of the police's Operation El | veden, the codename for the bribery investigation.
Some hacks have been apparently asked to identify bosses at News International who may have known about or condoned payments to public officials in return for information.

Home Prices Fell Again In October
Home prices dropped from September to October in 19 of the 20 cities where it tracks the real estate markets, according to the widely watched S&P/Case-Shiller Home Price Indices report.
According to a statement from David M. Blitzer, chairman of the Index Committee at S&P Indices:
"Atlanta and the Midwest are regions that really stand out in terms of recent relative weakness. Atlanta was down 5.0 percent over the month, after having fallen by 5.9 percent in September. It also has the weakest annual return, down 11.7 percent. Chicago, Cleveland Detroit and Minneapolis all posted monthly declines of 1.0 percent or more in October."
Reuters says the news "underscored the challenges facing the housing market."

"The biggest threat to Linux becoming the software of choice in government circles is that there is no third-party verification, certification or evaluation of it, according to Linda Walsh, a speaker at the UKUUG Linux 2000 Developers' Conference held July 7-9 in London...."
"Functionally, Linux lacks the ability to audit the necessary events [all security-relevant | events] to meet the functional requirements of the Common Criteria Controlled Access Protection Profile (CAPP)," said Walsh.
