Rise Of Excise Duty, Service Tax Rates Likely In India's Budget: Deloitte
RTTNews - The Indian government will increase the rates of excise duty and service tax in the Budget next month to harmonize them with the proposed Goods and Services Tax (GST), scheduled to be introduced from next fiscal, reports PTI, citing international accounting and consulting firm Deloitte.
The firm said that the government was likely to roll back the 6% cut in excise duty rates and 2% cut in services tax in three stimulus packages. The consulting firm also was expecting a cut in indirect tax reduction made in the fiscal stimulus packages during December 2008 and February 2009.
Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu India Senior Director (Indirect Tax) M S Mani said that some directional clarity on the GST and service tax and excise duty rates could be increased to facilitate transition to the proposed GST regime. The GST is supposed to fuse almost all indirect taxes at the Centre and states replacing excise duty, service tax at the Central level and VAT at the state level.
The firm also predicted that custom duty on crude oil might be brought back to bring in fresh revenue streams for the government to rein in mounting fiscal deficit.

After all the hype, cornerback Ty Law's return to New England was pretty uneventful.
Five tackles, no pass breakups, no interceptions, no penalties.
"It was cool. It wasn't something I had circled on my calendar like I was going to anticipate it," Law said. "I've been a New York Jet for quite some time now. It was nice to see some of the guys out there, but my mind-set was to go out there and play good football and win a game."
In the week leading up to the game, unnamed sources said that the Jets definitely would let Law go after the season by not picking up his $11 million option bonus due in March. Both Law and Jets coach Herm Edwards denied that anything was a fait accompli, but Law's continuing health difficulties may make it so.
Law spent much of the second half against the Patriots on the sideline as his surgically repaired left foot acted up. He said the foot gets irritated at times.
"It's one of those things where I have to come out and take it easy for a while," he said. "I came back in. It's just one of those things. I still feel positive that I can go out there and play at a high level."
In Law's absence, the Jets got to take another look at their potential future at corner, as Derrick Strait got some playing time.
"He made a couple of plays," Edwards said of Strait. "They got him a couple of times. The guy he was trying to guard is a good football player, Troy Brown."
Strait, a second-year player, could be one of the Jets' cornerbacks of the future, along with rookie Justin Miller, who has gotten a lot of playing time in the absence of David Barrett.
"He's been a good tackler for us, for the most part," Edwards said of Miller. "He missed one on the sideline, but he supported the run fairly well. He's starting to learn the concept of coverage better. He still struggles on his own a little bit in the concept, but I think when you get play man (coverage), he does a good job. He's got good speed. And he's gaining confidence the more he plays."
--Quarterback Jay Fiedler still is no closer to coming back, coach Herm Edwards said Monday. "We'll probably know this week more where he's really at," Edwards said. "He'll force us more. He's been trying to throw, but we'll see."
When asked if Fiedler might practice during seven-on-seven workouts, Edwards said, "We're going to see if he can do it."
Despite the fact that the season is lost, Edwards would like to see Fiedler in action. He hasn't played since suffering a shoulder injury on Sept. 25.
"If he's not well and he can't play, then obviously he's going to need surgery, I would think," Edwards said. "I don't know that. But I would anticipate that. Then (we'll) take a look at where he's at, as far as what we do next year. It's something beneficial for him."
"Yes, I would like to see Jay. I don't know if you would start him right away, but you would have to play him. He hadn't played in a game since Week 3. You can't ask a guy to go in there. He hasn't practiced a whole practice yet. Whenever he comes back, you have to get him in some games. You have to try to get him in there."
--Mike Nugent's two kickoffs only got to the New England 17 and 25, respectively, and the second one was returned 15 yards to the 40, setting up the Patriots' go-ahead field goal.
"He just popped it up," Edwards said. "It was a bad kick. But he's done pretty good in the kickoffs. He's (often) kicking it inside the 5, which he did in college. He wasn't a guy who would kick it in the end zone all the time. He's made some good kicks for us. That one just popped up."

Mumbai, Jun 16 (UNI) Protesting against a defamatory poster, members of the Sikh community today vandalised the office of MTV India, a music channel, at Parel in central Mumbai.
According to Bhoiwada police, the protesters were objecting to the poster of a show called 'On the job', a career-based reality programme, in which a woman was shown massaging a man while a young person, wearing a turban, looked at them.
A group of over 150 people gatherd outside the channel's office this afternoon and shouted slogans and than attacked the office.
Surjeet Singh, one of the protesters, said not only the poster was defamatory but the lines, which were written on the hoardings, hurt their sentiments.
According to MTV spokesperson, the poster was put up on Sunday afternoon.
Bhoiwada police have registered an offence of rioting against the protestors and arrested 20 persons so far in this connection.

text: Robert LorenzsonHilary KnightIllustrator Hilary Knight is being honored by the New York Public Library tonight. He speaks to Rachel Syme about Kay Thompson, the lost Eloise book, and her new movie. VIEW OUR GALLERY10.30.09 8:06 AM ETRobert LorenzsonRobert LorenzsonEloise, At the PlazaHilary Knight made a painting of Eloise (which he says is "not as polished as the drawings") to hang in the Plaza Hotel lobby in 1964--at left is a watercolor sketch Knight did before committing the image to oil. Knight originally painted Eloise in 1957, but the canvas disappeared from the hotel lobby in 1960 and never returned, despite author Kay Thompson having offered a hefty reward for it.Robert LorenzsonEloise, C'est MoiAn unused sketch for Eloise in Paris, circa 1957. The dress design is by Christian Dior, dictated to his then assistant, Yves St. Laurent.Robert LorenzsonThe Ultimate EloiseKnight had the chance to re-draw Eloise in 2000, when Kay Thompson's estate decided to release the new "Ultimate Edition" of the series. Knight says, "I was mostly glad to have the chance to go back and correct all the little mistakes I made." At left is an original sketch for the updated book.Robert LorenzsonThe First SketchesKnight began working with Thompson in fall 1954, and completed these unpublished trail sketches for the character based on a few sentences on scraps of paper that Thompson handed him (I can write, I can chew gum, I have a turtle.) Thompson would later lament to Knight that "the only book that's any good is the first book."Robert LorenzsonA Girl and Her TurtleOriginal sketch for Eloise and her turtle, Skipperdee, circa 1954. Knight was still working out Eloise's final image, but her outfit and wild hair are already in place. Robert LorenzsonEloise and Skiperdee, 1954Another original sketch for Eloise, whom Knight's good friend and sometimes collaborator Maurice Sendak would later call "a brazen, loose-limbed little monster." Knight says that he tried to draw Eloise as "a simply terrible little girl."Robert LorenzsonThe Dainty June ProjectKnight's next book will be a collaboration with June Havoc--a.k.a. "Dainty June" or Gypsy Rose Lee's little sister. Havoc, now 97, married to actor-director William Spier in 1949, two years after Spier divorced Eloise creator Kay Thompson. Of Havoc, Knight says she is "a totally different person than Kay, but no less brilliant."Robert LorenzsonChildhood MemoriesKnight says that he would love to publish a compendium of his life's work, and in it, he would include images of what it was like growing up with artist-illustrator parents. This original watercolor sketch from 1992 shows Knight's childhood bedroom, complete with colorful wall paintings by his mother. Knight himself paints murals--he is currently "working on a mural in a private residence" inside--where else--the Plaza. Robert LorenzsonMartha Stewart's DrawingKnight sketched Martha Stewart's chow chow, Paw Paw, "famous for his cat paw feet," before the dog's death in 2008. Robert LorenzsonBest in ShowOriginal sketches for a dog show grooming, circa 1999. The sketch shows Knight's knack for caricatures of high society figures and their pampered pets. Robert LorenzsonThe Artist At WorkKnight completed this casual watercolor sketch in 2000. He often works directly from text and completes a new sketch in "no time at all."Robert LorenzsonKnight's TalesIn addition to the Eloise books, Knight has illustrated more than 50 books for children, including Betty Macdonald's Mrs. Piggle Wiggle (a job he shared with Maurice Sendak), and written over a dozen others himself. He says that he "is fortunate to love children. Kay [Eloise's creator] hated being around them."Robert LorenzsonEloisianaThough Knight and Thompson only collaborated on four published books (and one published after Thompson's death), the Eloise estate has reissued and repackaged the books many times in the last ten years. Knight says, "Eloise will never really go away. I hope we have another book in my lifetime, and that I'm here to draw it."Herb ScherHilary Knight, 2009The artist in his studio in October 2009. On November 2, he will receive an achievement honor at the New York Public Library in a gala celebration, hosted by actor John Lithgow. He will be honored alongside Brokeback Mountain author Annie Proulx, and much to Knight's delight, he "won't have to give a speech. Though I am thrilled about it."

Definition of comport
comportmentplay \kəm-ˈpȯrt-mənt\ noun
Examples of comport in a Sentence
an outfit that most definitely does not comport with the company's guidelines for dress-down days
the grieving relatives comported themselves with grace and dignity during that difficult time
Did You Know?
With its prefix com-, "with", the Latin word comportare meant "to bring together". So it's easy to see how in English we could say that a college's policy comports with state law, or that a visit to your parents doesn't comport with your other weekend plans, or that your aunt and uncle won't listen to anything on TV that doesn't comport with their prejudices. The "behave" sense of the word comes through French, and its essential meaning is how a person "carries" him- or herself. So you may say, for instance, that your 17-year-old comported himself well (for once!) at the wedding reception, or that an ambassador always comports herself with dignity—that is, her comportment is always dignified—or that your class comported itself in a way that was a credit to the school.
Origin and Etymology of comport
Middle French comporter to bear, conduct, from Latin comportare to bring together, from com- + portare to carry — more at fare

Vocational and technical training has come a long way in recent decades.
To the uninitiated, much of today's version – which comes under the banner of Career & Technical Education (CTE) – might look indistinguishable from the more advanced college prep paths.
From biotechnology to computer design, CTE programs touch on a wide range of skills and knowledge areas, and meet rigorous requirements in terms of industry certification standards and college preparation.
When Denee Hurst left for college to attend the University of Florida, she never thought she'd return to the kind of small-town setting like the one in which she was raised in Dixie County.
She did, however, as she put in more than 20 years as a teacher and educational administrator in the county.
And now Hurst is the new principal of Yankeetown School, which, with its enrollment of around 200 students, is an even smaller school than where she started.
The School Board of Levy County and Superintendent Jeff Edison have joined a chorus of calls opposing the Florida legislature's K-12 education budget proposal and a related bill widely seen as too favorable to charter schools at the expense of the state's public school students.
The position of a person in life is not their potential and that is because knowledge increases each time a certain position is attained, whether it be a promotion in school, work or in any other endeavor; and never let circumstances in life block achievement. Those two statements were the main pieces of advice Dr. Kendrick Scott offered Saturday during the Levy County Black History program in the Tommy Usher Pineland Center.
One of the greatest pleasures of reading is to escape into another world.
Yankeetown School's busiest readers over the last quarter term got a glimpse into one such enchanting world last Friday, when they were treated to a visit from a Weeki Wachee mermaid.
Mermaid Charlene posed for pictures with the students in the school's auditorium and took questions from the ones who weren't too shy, as the children queried whether she knew Ariel and Nemo, and how long she can hold her breath.
As with many teachers and aides who work in small schools, Gayle Gatton has worn a lot of hats as an educator.
Now, after 30 years in her profession, she's doing exactly what she loves, even if it means less money.
Allen Strickland can hardly believe he's being paid for all the fun he's having.
The algebra teacher and baseball coach at Bronson Middle High School is in his sixth year as an educator, and he recently started teaching shop class, reconnecting the 30-year-old with his roots.
Strickland earned a degree in building construction at the University of Florida and worked in the field before entering education.
The Chiefland City Commission honored Students of the Month for October and November at its Dec. 13 meeting, presenting them with certificates of achievement. In addition the students each received a $20 gift card from the Chiefland Rotary Club and the Chiefland Middle High School Interact Club.
Commissioner Rollin Hudson did the honors presenting them and reading aloud their nominations for the honor.
Levy County Sheriff's Deputy Chase Gregory, a graduate of Chiefland schools, is taking over the duties of school resource officer for the city's schools.
Gregory is attempting to fill the shoes of his former instructor Deputy Steve Ellis who is retiring to spend time travelling and relaxing.
Gregory started work Monday taking his daughter to school.
daughter to Chiefland Elementary School, which he once attended.
He then reported for duty at the Chiefland Middle High School, which he attended.
The School Board of Levy County unanimously adopted its final 2016-2017 millage and budget, setting the combined millage rate at 6.876, and the total budget at $77,264,131.00.
The budget was revised up from the original advertised estimate by $1,503,385, largely due to $1,259,923 in additional anticipated costs for capital projects.

MICKUM: Well, I'm a native Washingtonian. I was born here but spent a lot of my younger life down in St. Mary's County, Maryland, which, I guess, as a crow flies is about fifty miles south of here. I'm not sure of how much you want or don't want. I . . . I grew up, until my early teens, as a very uneducated person, hardly able to read or write because my father was a . . . an oyster man on Chesapeake Bay and it was customary for, certainly, the sons in families down there to go out on the oyster boats instead of going to school. I came up to Washington after . . . or back up to Washington after our farm was condemned for the Patuxent Naval Air Station, and managed to get into a Jesuit high school, Gonzaga High School, here, and then I went to Georgetown University and to Georgetown Law School. When I graduated from the law school, I got a job as Judge Charles Fahey's law clerk and spent a year with Judge Fahey, during which we worked on what was called the "Thompson Restaurant Case." That case involved some Civil War ordinances which banned segregation on the grounds of race, among other things, in public facilities in the . . . in the District of Columbia. And those ordinances had never, ever been enforced and were tested, so to speak, in the Thompson Restaurant Case, by a group who . . . of blacks who went into Bish--B-I-S-H--Thompson's Restaurant and were arrested and charged with trespass. And they were convicted, and their conviction was affirmed by the initial panel on the Court of Appeals here before I became Judge Fahey's clerk. A rehearing en banc was . . . was ordered, and it became a 5-4 decision in favor of the affirmance of their convictions. Judge Fahey wrote the dissent on this case from the rehearing en banc affirmance of the conviction. And the case went to the Supreme Court on certiorari. And I don't know that it's been done very often--or maybe not at all--but the Supreme Court took the case and said that they reversed the en banc D.C. Court of Appeals, and instead of writing an opinion, they took Judge Fahey's opinion as that of the Court of . . . of the Supreme Court of the United States. So I kind of got interested in maybe clerking at the Supreme Court. And nobody from Georgetown Law School had ever clerked at the Supreme Court before, so this posed a problem. GILSON: Yeah. MICKUM: But it turned out that Judge Fahey and Justice [Stanley] Reed were very good friends. My facts may be slightly wrong, but Justice Reed was the Solicitor General of the United States when Judge Fahey was general counsel of the National Labor Relations Board. And in the process they formed a relationship because Reed, basically as Solicitor General, had the responsibility for defending the New Deal in the Supreme Court of the United States. And he basically had Charles Fahey handle the labor aspects of that defense in his behalf and they . . . they formed a very close and very long-lasting relationship. I made it known to Fahey that I thought I might like to apply as a . . . to . . . for a clerkship at the Supreme Court and, quite honestly, I don't know what he said to Reed. I felt that he recommended me warmly, and Reed gave me an interview and talked about what a little law school I had come from [chuckle--Gilson]. And I pointed out that Georgetown, even in those days, was larger than Harvard if you combined the day and night school. And he offered me a job. And I think that answers your question. GILSON: Yeah, it does. That's an interesting story. What were your initial impressions of Justice Reed? I guess you'd . . . you'd been a- . . . acquainted with his work before. MICKUM: Yes, very casually. Well, you know, the justice was a very thin and almost totally bald man. And I would say one's very first impression, walking in to talk to him, was [chuckling] that he was rather forbidding. But, you know, it didn't take very long to find that . . . that this was a very warm and charming man. He . . . I never felt, you know, after my, maybe, initial five-minute reaction when he questioned me about going to such a small and unknown law school, I never thereafter felt any sense of intimidation or fear or whatever. I . . . I . . . [chuckle] I guess I felt that most of the times he was as puzzled as I was about what ought to be done and he . . . and he and I got along on that basis. GILSON: Well, just for the record, I guess, could you tell me a little bit about what a clerk does, what a Stanley Reed clerk does from . . . in his term? MICKUM: Well, I think it's a very close and full relationship. Obviously every clerk, at least as far as I know every clerk, deals with the petitions for certiorari and the jurisdictional statements. And the way Reed handled it, I and my co-clerk, Jack [John] Fassett, would make the threshold cut on those things and write a memorandum to the justice based on our review of the papers. Very often, in that particular context, he would call one of us in, or the both of us in sometimes, to discuss a particular case in terms of whether or not we thought it ought to be taken by the Court or forgotten about. But he would enlist our . . . our assistance. And, you know, he was a great s- . . . great one for wanting to know what was in the record. And he would frequently question us on, "Well, you say this and that. Are you just accepting what's in the briefs or have you checked the record? I want to know exactly what the record contains on this particular point." Sometimes he'd even ask us to do independent research on it. But he took the matter of what cases the Court heard and didn't hear very seriously. Now, he would then . . . you know, taking his own counsel, because as far as I know he never told me what he was going to do or not do, he would go off to conference and then he . . . we always stayed wi-. . . the conferences in . . . at that time were on Saturday morning, and the clerks were always there. And he would come back and tell us what . . . what happened. We'd go in and sit down and have coffee or something, and he'd tell us what cases were taken and what cases weren't, and what cases that he'd been assigned to write the opinion in, and sometimes what cases he was going to write the dissent in. I really have gotten ahead of myself because he would first . . . I should have . . . interspersed between the conference and the cert [certiorari] petitions, the opinions. Sometimes . . . well, first you'd have the cases that had already been argued, then you'd have the cases that were going to be argued, and he would talk to us about both. The cases that were argued were generally decided at the conference following the argument on Saturday morning, and so he would tell us, you know, which cases he had, what the results were, and so forth. And he would tell us what had happened with respect to the cases that the Court was going to take. He did a lot of original drafting of opinions himself, and sometimes he would have me drafting simultaneously with him. GILSON: Oh, yeah? MICKUM: There was no real pattern. GILSON: You mean you'd both be working on the . . . the same . . . MICKUM: Yeah. GILSON: . . . opinion . . . first draft of it? MICKUM: Yeah, about half the time he would say, "Yours is a . . . a better draft than mine. I'm going to throw mine away and work from yours from now on." And the other half of the time he'd say, "Yours stinks." [chuckle] "We're going to go with mine." And basically he would . . . but, you know, often, you know, we would be working on more than one. He would do one and one of us would be doing the other. GILSON: Well, what kind of . . . well, what kind of advice did he ask from his clerks in terms of writing opinions? Did he ask for . . . well, for their . . . I . . . of course, he asked for their thoughts on the matter, but did . . . were the clerks able to influence him any, or would . . . was it not a . . . what I'm trying to say is, what . . . what role did the clerks really have in the opinions? Not saying that they would do it entirely, but were . . . MICKUM: Well, . . . GILSON: . . . the clerks able to . . . to bring up points that he might want to include or . . . MICKUM: Oh, . . . GILSON: . . . change in his opinions? MICKUM: . . . well, yeah, but I think that the bottom line is, is that there never was an opinion that went out over his name that wasn't his. GILSON: Oh, yeah. I'm not . . . MICKUM: Well, of course! I mean, that . . . that's . . . I mean that's what you do as a clerk. I mean, you're a sounding board sometimes, you're a . . . a devil's advocate at other times. It really depends on the circumstances, but I think, at bottom, he didn't ever shut you off. If you went out and . . . and you read something that he had written and you went and said, "Mr. Justice, I just don't think you're hitting this right." He may disagre- . . . as often as not, he did disagree, but he never disregarded what you said. I think the notion that is sometimes rampant that Reed's clerks told him what to do is just utter bullshit. Utter bullshit. At least not when I was there. I mean, he was a . . . a man who, I found . . . and I . . . I've . . . I've always tried to emulate it, who listened with respect to the ideas of a couple of young turkeys who really had no right talking to a Supreme Court justice. But he listened with respect. And he never, ever, dismissed it out of hand. He listened. But [chuckle] he always made his own judgment on what was the right way to go. GILSON: I'd never heard that, Reed's clerks deciding what he wanted. MICKUM: I think if . . . GILSON: I . . . MICKUM: . . . all I'm saying is if . . . GILSON: Yeah. MICKUM: . . . you had heard it, . . . GILSON: Yeah. MICKUM: . . . it was total bullshit. GILSON: Okay. MICKUM: That was a sore subject at the time I was a clerk for Reed, because there was a certain fellow--now a justice on the Supreme Court- -who was a predecessor of mine as a clerk for Justice [Robert] Jackson, who wrote some articles in the University of Chicago Law Review, which suggested rather strongly that he was really telling Bill Jackson what to do. GILSON: Oh, yeah? MICKUM: I did not ever know a justice at the Supreme Court, nor, for that matter, was I ever aware of a judge on the Court of Appeals, and I . . . after all, I clerked on a damn big Court of Appeals, too. [chuckle] There's something about putting a robe on [chuckle] that makes that fellow with the robe his own man. And they want to be right, and they . . . they want to have considered all the views, but they certainly don't want to be told what to do. You know, I . . . you know, it's a tough question. What is influence? I think that the fact that Reed would consider something that I said to him possibly meant that I had an influence on him, because if mine was a reasoned and rational position, well, he'd consider . . . he might even change his mind. Because he, basically, was a first-rate craftsman who wanted to be right. And if he had voted, say, to affirm a case and I went in and said, "When you did that, had you thought about these aspects of the case? Because it seems to me that you might not have reached that conclusion had you thought about them." He'd say, "Yeah, I thought about them when I reached that conclusion," or he'd say, "No, I hadn't thought about them." But it was still his decision and . . . and, you know, all he was doing was using me and Jack, I think, in the way that we ought to have been used. He never stopped us from volunteering an idea. He accepted some that we volunteered, some he rejected. But he would ask you what you thought. I can't really put it any better than that. GILSON: Okay. You were on the Court when the Brown case [Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka] was being argued. MICKUM: Yeah. GILSON: Tell me a little about that if you . . . if you can. Was it agonizing for Reed? Did he have a hard time with it? MICKUM: Let me say this. I . . . I've always followed a principle that I just would prefer not to talk about, you know, a case. GILSON: Okay. MICKUM: I know that I have been quoted in a book that was written, and I refused to take the call of the man who wrote the book at least seven times, and I don't know where he got those quotes. GILSON: Seriously? MICKUM: Deadly serious. GILSON: Oh, I'm . . . I'm sure you're serious. I'm just . . . MICKUM: But I . . . you know, I can tell you that it was not an easy case for Reed. I think I . . . I think it's public knowledge that one . . . at the commencement of the term he was really in dissent in that case. So I think I can answer the question I think you asked-- no, it was not . . . GILSON: Okay. MICKUM: . . . an easy decision for him. GILSON: Okay. MICKUM: The fact is, I . . . I could tell you that when that opinion was read from the bench, he cried. GILSON: He cried? MICKUM: Yes, sir. GILSON: Whew! MICKUM: He was really very troubled by it. But I don't think I want to go into the ins and outs of . . . GILSON: Okay. MICKUM: . . . what he . . . my God, you know, I think I told you he was in dissent, and there were lots of drafts of dissents, and I believe Jack Fassett still has copies of most. Indeed, one draft was published in the book I averted to in Reed's own handwriting. But that's not a game I'm going to play. GILSON: Okay. Well, I was working on two angles there. Another angle is, it was originally argued in the `52 term with [Frederick] Vinson as chief justice. Then it came back in the `53 term for re-argument. Was it really . . . I was just . . . well, I was wondering, was it . . . was it a different forms of arguments each time, or was it more the Earl Warren influence that brought him around? MICKUM: Oh, I think it was the Earl Warren influence. In fact, I don't think it, I know it. GILSON: You know it? MICKUM: Yes, sir. GILSON: Is there any reason for that other than, perhaps, Warren was able to write a . . . MICKUM: Well, . . . GILSON: . . . an opinion that he liked? MICKUM: . . . no. If you're asking me if Earl Warren overwhelmed Reed . . . GILSON: No, I'm not. MICKUM: . . . either by the power of his personal or written eloquence, the answer is no. GILSON: Umhmm. MICKUM: It was a sense on Reed's part that it was in the best interests of the company . . . country that the opinion be unanimous. GILSON: And since . . . well, not that . . . MICKUM: And he was alone. He was . . . GILSON: Yeah. MICKUM: . . . he was a lone dissenter at that point in the game. GILSON: Okay. Let me think. Were you . . . were you on when the [Julius and Ethel] Rosenberg trial was there? Or was that . . . MICKUM: No. GILSON: . . . just before your time? MICKUM: It was just . . . GILSON: I know it was a special term. MICKUM: . . . that was before my time. GILSON: Okay. How did . . . how did Reed get along with the other members of the Court at that time? MICKUM: Very well. GILSON: Very well? MICKUM: Very well. GILSON: I . . . I'm going to have you repeat your story about [Felix] Frankfurter, if you may, in a minute. MICKUM: Oh, it . . . [chuckle] Reed was a . . . well, I think I . . . I think I could probably illustrate it well by . . . by the fact that, first of all, he had a great sense of humor. A really great sense of humor, and he . . . you know, I think there were feuds and so forth. I'm not sure that he and Bill Douglas loved one another with any, [chuckle] you know, great enthusiasm, but as far as I was aware, Reed didn't have any feuds. He was a . . . a friendly and a gentle man with a good sense of humor, and people enjoyed being with him. You know, I . . . I can remember a si-. . . situations where . . . with nothing particular to . . . to do, you know, a justice would drop by to see Reed, or Reed would march off to see somebody, and they'd just shoot the bull. And in those days, being a Supreme Court clerk was a seven-day-a-week job, because [chuckle] Reed came in on Sundays, too. GILSON: Yeah? MICKUM: As did his secretary and as did his messenger. And I can remember when they used to have oral arguments. Sometimes we'd . . . we'd decide not to go. The law clerks would play basketball in the gymnasium up above the courtroom and we would play the janitors. And one day I got this note from Stanley Reed [chuckle] saying, "I know you're having a great time up there, but the swinging chandeliers are making me sick. Stop!" [laughter] That was the end of the basketball games while the arguments . . . GILSON: While the . . . MICKUM: . . . were going on. GILSON: . . . arguments were going on. MICKUM: We then began having basketball games during conference. But . . . but he was a . . . [chuckle] he was a very funny [chuckling] guy. And he . . . he really had a tremendous admiration for Felix Frankfurter because he once said to me, he said, "You know, I came here thinking that Felix had a predisposition on everything." And he said, "Felix is a real judge's judge. He agonizes over everything. But once he's made up his mind, he thinks everybody ought to agree with him." GILSON: Oh. MICKUM: Felix was--[coughs] excuse me--always very persuaded of the rectitude of his own views, and he regarded Reed as a swing man on the Court. And he always felt impelled to try to convince Justice Reed that . . . GILSON: Thank you. MICKUM: . . . he ought to join him on a p- . . . any particular issue. And Reed--and to some extent Tom [Thomas] Clark, who had the suite of offices immediately next to us--used their law clerks to deal with Frankfurter. I would . . . I would have to talk with Justice Frankfurter, who, I think, was equally persuaded that Reed's clerks had an influence on him [chuckle] far beyond anything they had. And this . . . I . . . I don't want to denigrate this experience because I . . . you know, I think Reed used his clerks in a vastly different way than Frankfurter did. I think Frankfurter's clerks had a . . . probably a pretty good personal relationship with him. I don't know. But basically the first time he saw them was when they came to work. They were hired for him by a professor at Harvard Law School. But he . . . GILSON: You mean, . . . MICKUM: . . . didn't . . . GILSON: . . . he would . . . he would see them sight unseen? MICKUM: That's right. GILSON: You mean, hire them . . . MICKUM: They were hired sight unseen for him by someone else. As a result, I think, Frankfurter's clerks did specific research projects. I don't think . . . I think Felix read all of the cert petitions himself. I don't think that his clerks, for example, had an input in connection with whether or not the Court should take a case. I don't think they did much in the way of actual drafting of opinions. I think they did research projects and maybe wrote sections of opinions, whereas we would sometimes write the whole opinion in first draft. And then Reed, Fassett and I used to think, would mess it up, but [chuckling] anyhow, that's beside the point. So I got the opportunity on many occasions, particularly where cases were close, the initial vote was very close, to deal with Frankfurter in his efforts to persuade Reed to his point of view. And Reed and Clark were very grateful for . . . for the fact that we fielded Felix for them, and used to take Ellison McKay and me out to Burning Tree to play golf. Since we're talking about the human aspect of this, I will elaborate a little bit. GILSON: Good. MICKUM: God, I hope I'm right about the names, but Reed used to carry a bottle of Mount Vernon rye [laughter] in his golf bag. I've forgotten what bourbon Clark carried, but it was fairly potent stuff. And they would sort of have a nip from time to time during the course of the game. And I remember I was a very good golfer when I went to work for Reed. I played golf on the Georgetown golf team and that sort of thing. And the first time we played, I think I won the first four ho- . . . four holes, and Reed [chuckle] said to me, "George, I didn't bring you out here to beat me." [chuckling] And after that, we had the message, and we had a great time, and . . . and it was just a big laugh. Clark, he had something not resembling a golf swing. He swung at the golf ball like a baseball. GILSON: Oh, yeah? MICKUM: Oh, yeah. Big, huge belt at the ball. And both McKay and I were reasonably decent golfers, and Reed was . . . was Reed. He had the most amazing putting style I've ever seen. He . . . he putted with a purposeful slice. It was his view that he didn't have to worry about the roll of the green. If [chuckle] he put his own slice on a ball, he would . . . he would . . . and he was damn good, I'll tell you that. He was . . . he was a good putter. But we did that on a couple of occasions, and it was . . . one, it was a . . . a reflection of the fact that . . . that Reed, you know, thought . . . I can't tell you what it was he did with Fassett, but I'm sure he did something similar. But he . . . he didn't think of us as just people there doing cert memos. We were people that he felt a kinship for. And I think I also mentioned to you beforehand . . . well, I'll have to tell you. He made a conquest of my then very young wife because she loved him. GILSON: Oh, yeah? MICKUM: She loved him so much. And Mrs. Reed. Because, to our utter consternation, they accepted a dinner invitation while we lived in a one-bedroom apartment out on Bradley Boulevard and you could have really knocked us both over. I think I was still a clerk at the time. Knocked us both over when the justice and Mrs. Reed showed up to have dinner with us. We had a . . . at that time, a young and screaming baby that the justice and Mrs. thought was no big problem. A far bigger problem for the parents than the . . . the justice, and the . . . and they were so cordial and nice to us . . . to some of the younger people that were there at the dinner. And it was never, ever different. I mean, every year we had a banquet. Harold Leventhal was the first clerk . . . GILSON: Umhmm. MICKUM: . . . and he ran the banquet. And the morning after, the justice and Mrs. Reed had a brunch at their apartment at the Mayflower [Hotel]. And it wasn't just the law clerks. I mean, it was the law clerks and the wives, and it was like a family occasion. GILSON: Now, the wives were being invited to the banquet at the time or . . . MICKUM: Sometimes yes, sometimes no. GILSON: . . . [inaudible]. MICKUM: But . . . I mean, the wives were very definitely important. Well, to say they were important, that's an objective statement. Certainly, everyone would have regarded the wives as an important aspect insofar as the Reeds were concerned. And I think that Reed took a genuine . . . that the justice and Mrs. Reed took a genuine interest in the clerks and how their families [chuckle] were growing and all that sort of thing. GILSON: How did Reed . . . well, we . . . we kind of delved in this a little bit. How did he treat his clerks, as opposed to the way other justices would treat their clerks? MICKUM: Well, I mentioned Frankfurter, but I don't think that was . . . I don't think that's properly a treatment. GILSON: Okay. MICKUM: I mean, I think Reed used his clerks differently from other justices. I mentioned that Frankfurter, I think, read all of his own cert petitions. Douglas, in contrast, as far as I know, his clerks only dealt with cert petitions and had no input at all in his opinions. I mean, that was more gossip, I guess, or hearsay than my own personal knowledge. I think every justice used his clerks in the way that most suited his own needs. But in terms of relationships, I think, insofar as I could see, most of the justices had very close personal relationships with their clerks. GILSON: That's good. I'd heard that . . . that Douglas hardly ever saw his clerk . . . MICKUM: Well, . . . GILSON: . . . or clerks. MICKUM: . . . I think . . . I think that your . . . that your information is correct. Indeed, I . . . I've also heard from some of his [chuckle] clerks that his clerks roundly detested him. GILSON: Oh, yeah? MICKUM: I wouldn't let my wife get in an elevator with Bill Douglas. I mean, he was a consummate lecher. [chuckling] He . . . instead of . . . instead of a second clerk when I was there, he [chuckle] had a second secretary whom he subsequently married and divorced. GILSON: Umhmm. No, he was . . . you know, he had four wives eventually, I recall. MICKUM: This was his second wife. GILSON: His second wife. MICKUM: But, you know, Douglas was a brilliant man, and I never really knew anything about his relations with his clerks. But they were certainly just different from those that Reed enjoyed with his. GILSON: Yeah. What kind of a writer was Reed? If you just have read his opinions, he . . . he seems . . . well, of course, it's . . . it's very dry reading if you're looking for something, as opposed to . . . well, as opposed to Frankfurter or Douglas. MICKUM: Well, I don't think he was a good writer. Anything the words . . . in . . . you know, in style and that sort of thing. I don't think he . . . he certainly was no Bob Jackson who, I thought, was a superb and gifted writer. But beyond that, I don't know that I can . . . can go. I think Reed certainly wrote clearly. He would have needed a damn good ei- . . . editor if he had tried writing novels. But . . . and he . . . no, I . . . I . . . I think that's as much as I can say. I never thought of him as a particularly good writer. I will say that once he got it down on paper in his own handwriting, it was tough [chuckling] to move him. GILSON: Was he always . . . well, I . . . I know that he wasn't always serious. You . . . we were talking about his sense of humor a little while ago. Why did the public get that . . . get that image of him? You know, always the austere . . . MICKUM: Well, there's a picture up there. GILSON: Yeah. MICKUM: I think that's a fairly accurate portrayal of the . . . of the image he conveyed. He looked [chuckling] so stern and forbidding in that picture. And he was just the reverse of what he looked like. Absolutely the reverse. I mean, he really . . . I . . . as I told you, the first five minutes I met him, I was scared to death of the man. GILSON: Umhmm. MICKUM: And after that, I never had any . . . not only . . . I think fear's the wrong word. I never had any compunction about barging into his office and saying, you know, "I think" [chuckling] "you're doing this wrong." And he might just as readily say, "Well, get out, because I don't." But the fact of the matter was, is that he was a completely human and . . . obviously you . . . you addressed him as "Mr. Justice." Nobody . . . I mean, I would never have thought of . . . can't even think of calling him "Stanley." But, you know, there were . . . there was a protocol involved in how you dealt with him, but his . . . he just was nothing like what he looked to be in his pictures and in his demeanor. He was very restrained, very thin, very almost ascetic, indeed he was, person. I . . . I mean, he would go out and have a steak dinner and martinis with you, but most of the time he ate nothing but rice and lemon. You'll find that out from [Gerald] Ross, who used to fix his lunch. He went to . . . he had high blood pressure. I don't remember exactly when, but he was . . . I saw . . . I've seen pictures of him when he was an extremely heavy man, well over two hundred pounds, florid and so forth. And he to the Duke University and went on this rice diet on which he remained, as far as I'm [chuckle] aware, the rest of his life. GILSON: Yes, he did. MICKUM: Well, but he was an extremely gentle and friendly man. GILSON: Let me turn the tape over and . . . [End of Tape 1, Side 1] [Beginning of Tape 1, Side 2] GILSON: Yeah, we were talking about his health. How . . . how was his health? I know that he had had the trouble with the . . . with the high blood pressure. Was he giving any . . . any indication that . . . you know, you . . . you were saying that he . . . he played golf with you, but other than that, was he giving any indication of . . . of getting old and . . . MICKUM: Oh Lord, no. Absolutely not. I mean, he was . . . You mean, are . . . did I have any indication that his faculties were waning or anything like that? GILSON: No. But . . . MICKUM: I think the man was an absolute horse, I mean, and a bear for work. I mean, aside from the fact that he took a nap every day after lunch, which mainly elongated our days at the Court, I think he enjoyed very good health. Extremely good health. But I . . . you know, I think this was because he had determined to take care of himself and to stay on this rice diet and all that sort of thing. He was a physically vigorous man. GILSON: See, yeah, he was a . . . I guess he was, what, sixty-nine years old on your . . . in your term? MICKUM: About that. GILSON: Yeah. I'm trying to . . . yeah, 1884 is when he was born. MICKUM: But he was . . . and let me tell you, if went for a walk with the justice, because he had these great, long legs, you were going to . . . you were going to have to work to keep up with him. And he walked a lot, you know, quite apart from playing golf. GILSON: Umhmm. I had had heard that he . . . well, that he would . . . quite often walk from . . . MICKUM: Right. GILSON: . . . the Mayflower . . . MICKUM: May-. . . GILSON: . . . to the Court. MICKUM: Right. And sometimes he would tell me to . . . to meet him, and I would walk with him. That's my . . . the basis for my experience with trying to keep up with him. And Felix Frankfurter and he used to walk. GILSON: Oh, yeah? MICKUM: Yeah. GILSON: Could Felix keep up with him? MICKUM: Felix used to dogtrot. Felix was about that tall and [chuckling] in fact, you know, you . . . well, Felix, I think, was older than Reed and you'd see Felix sort of jogging around the hallways, the marble halls of the Supreme Court in his little black jacket. He wasn't a jogger; he was just getting from one office to another in his rounds of convincing people in a hurry. But they walked as . . . quite a bit, as I . . . I may have walked two or three times with Justice Frankfurter and Justice Reed, but I understood they walked quite frequently. In fact, I think Frankfurter lived further out Connecticut Avenue, and he [chuckle] . . . he would walk down and pick up Reed, and then they'd go to the Court from the Mayflower together. GILSON: Well, this is a question which is . . . I've asked everybody I've talked to, and most of them think it's unfair. So, I don't see any reason why I shouldn't ask you. Did Stanley Reed start liberal and grow conservative in his career, or was it . . . was he always the same? MICKUM: Well, first, I don't think it's an unfair question. And I think I can only give you an opinion because I didn't work with him when he was with . . . what was it, the Farm Credit Board, or whatever. GILSON: The Federal Farm Board. MICKUM: The Federal Farm Board. I . . . I would think that rather than the metamorphosis that you're talking about, times changed. And what was regarded as liberal in the very early days became conservative. But I don't . . . I certainly don't think Reed changed. GILSON: You mean, he stayed static while the . . . MICKUM: I think . . . GILSON: . . . times moved? MICKUM: . . . yeah. Well, yeah. I . . . that's not a criticism. I just think that, you know, what's the definition of a liberal? I happen to think that liberals are the most autocratic people in the world, and Reed certainly was not autocratic, I mean, by today's standards. GILSON: Yeah. MICKUM: I think he was probably a liberal in the true sense from beginning to end and never changed. GILSON: Umhmm. Well, Mr. Mickum, that's about all I had to . . . to ask you. Would you care to add anything more? MICKUM: No, I think I've said too much. [chuckle--Gilson] No, I . . . I think what you all are doing is a . . . is a fine thing, and . . . and I hope you give him the credit that I . . . I know he deserves. His . . . his was always a very . . . it was a . . . interesting. He was a craftsman. He was interested in every aspect of the law. I remember a copyright case, the name of which I can't remember, wouldn't even try to remember, which, as far as I was concerned, was the purest of nothings. But he spent more time fiddling with that because he felt that the individuals involved were so important. And I think Reed was a great man and a . . . and one who deserves to be remembered. I don't think that . . . that his style was . . . was the kind that attracted the attention of . . . of a lot of professors, but he was no less substantive than everybody else there. No more comments. GILSON: No more comment? Thank you very much. MICKUM: Okay. [End of Interview] George Mickum III worked with John Fasset, and clerked for Justice Reed from 1953 to 1954. In his interview, he discusses Reed's writing style, noting that Reed wrote his own opinions. He also describes Reed's relationships with Justices Felix Frankfurter, Thomas Clark, and William Douglas. When asked to comment on Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, Mickum says that it was a difficult case for Justice Reed, and that Reed cried when the decision was read. Mickum concludes the interview with a discussion of Reed's rice diet and walking habit. Kentucky Politics

[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-4230?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ] Robert Muir updated LUCENE-4230: -------------------------------- Attachment: LUCENE-4230.patch updated patch: I simplified tests to just call dpEnum(Bits, reuse) instead of passing flags. Basically I think tests should just work on 'whats there', and we should fix newField such that we sometimes 'add extra stuff in addition to what the test needs'. This not only simplifies our code but will maximize test coverage. I'm resisting the urge to beef up TestDuelingCodecs... another issue for that :) Separately I added some nocommits while reviewing the code: places where we are still conditionalizing the code based on a null result (which wont happen). > When pulling DocsAndPositionsEnum you should state whether you need payloads > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-4230 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-4230 > Project: Lucene - Core > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Michael McCandless > Assignee: Michael McCandless > Fix For: 5.0 > > Attachments: LUCENE-4230.patch, LUCENE-4230.patch, LUCENE-4230.patch, LUCENE-4230.patch > > > Payloads are extra-costly today because when pulling a > DocsAndPositionsEnum, the codec has no way to know if you need access > to the payloads.

Before modern blowout treatments, the only way to straighten out hair was with a clothes iron or a stern lecture from Miss Manners. Try simpler techniques with today's Groupon: for $99, you get a Bumble and bumble. Concen-straight hair-smoothing treatment at SalonBlu in Mayfield Village (a $300 value). Clients with especially thick or long hair can purchase extra elixir at $50 per ounce.
SalonBlu's expert stylists fortify and soften locks with 2 ounces of Bumble and bumble. Concen-straight elixir, which uses natural ingredients to uncoil hair and imbue it with long-lasting silkiness. The treatment's unique formula eschews potentially harmful chemicals such as formaldehyde, cysteine, and lye, relying instead on proteins culled from plants and sustainably harvested granola bars to transform scraggly hair into a sheen-infused mane. After each treatment, tresses keep frizz at bay whether clients let their hair air-dry naturally or heat style with a blow dryer. SalonBlu permeates its studio space with rich, blue walls and royal-blue styling chairs, punctuated with blond woods, black-and-white photography, and a sleek, chrome coffee machine that keeps guests from falling asleep by telling riveting stories about its time as the personal coffee maker to Gerald Ford.
Though their talents are as diverse as their tools—which include products from Bumble and bumble, Wella, OPI, and Dermalogica—the stylists and beauty experts at SalonBlu share a single mission: to enhance their clients' natural beauty. The expert stylists customize cuts for heads all shapes and sizes and add luster to hair with infusions of proteins culled from plants and sustainably harvested granola bars. On the other side of the salon, skincare specialists beautify visages with facial treatments that range from peels to microdermabrasions and nail technicians brush on chip-resistant shellac polish and apply artificial nails. The full-service salon also hosts a team of massage therapists, that shoos away stress with five different modalities, including an express scalp massage and a more intensive chakra-balancing treatment.

Body Building 101 (7 of 9) by John Barnett
This content is part of a series.Body Building 101 (7 of 9)
Series: Our Shared Life
John Barnett
We share life as saved and born-again believers, we are all God's building, we are all God's house, we are all members of His family. Each of those word pictures describe who we are and what we are here to do.
If I were to give you the short form of our shared job description as believers it would be:
We are all employed as workers in a Divine Construction Company. God is the Master Builder, and the project is building up the Body of Christ.
As we open to I Corinthians 3, we need to focus on our job site, and what God is building all around us. Each of us, at the moment of salvation, became a skilled worker at God's construction site. Listen to 1 Corinthians 3:9b:
For we are God's fellow workers; you are God's field, you are God's building.
God looks to each one of us to do our job as He constructs His Church as His House, Family, and Body; and each of us is a unique tools in His Hands; and each of us are programmed to do something God designed only for us to do. All of us have a responsibility to be a part of God's building process. In other words:
How Are Doing at
Working on His House?
Jesus once said, "Foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head" (Matthew 8:20, NKJV). Most of us are far better off than that; in fact Americans spend the largest portion of their incomes on housing, with transportation second. So, by our choices we make of where we live, the house we rent or own, is very important.
It was about 15 years ago that we began constructing our very first new home we ever lived in. Like many of you that have built a home, we followed the same process:
We had to choose a builder, buy a lot, then watch as the land got cleared and ready, the slab or foundation was prepared and poured, then the framers came, the windows were put it, the electricians showed up and strung wires, plumbers, sheet rockers, cabine ...

Duds outweigh discoveries at Berlin film festival
By Mike Collett-White
BERLIN (Reuters) - Duds stuck in the memory more than discoveries at the Berlin film festival, where critics were underwhelmed by the quality of the main competition line up.
As the 11-day annual showcase of international cinema draws to a close with the awards ceremony on Saturday, there are four or five out of 19 entries seen as contenders for best picture.
They are led by "London River," French-Algerian director Rachid Bouchareb's tale of an odd couple united in their search for two children missing after the 2005 suicide bomb attacks in London which killed 52 people.
Britain's Brenda Blethyn and Sotigui Kouyate of Mali gave compelling performances, and the picture's subject matter could boost its chances in the eyes of the jury.
Not everyone liked it, however, and there was no clear favorite for the coveted Golden Bear award in 2009.
"With no single stand out masterpiece, handicapping the Berlinale Golden Bear winner ... is proving a difficult task," Scott Roxborough wrote in The Hollywood Reporter.
"Whatever the choice, be certain it will be praised and damned in equal measure by critics here."
Broadly popular was "About Elly," about middle-class Iranians whose trip to the Caspian Sea turns to tragedy as they seek to uphold social customs by layering lie upon lie. Continued...

Basil D'Oliveira
From the Guardian archive From the archive, 29 August 1968: D'Oliveira left out of England cricket tour of apartheid South Africa
Originally published in the Guardian on 29 August 1968: D'Oliveira, who broke down when he heard the news, left the ground at Worcester yesterday before the close of play
Editorial: Basil D'Oliveira listened to Arlott on the World Service and wrote him a letter. Arlott not only read it, but lobbied on his behalf
Tom Graveney led the tributes to his former Worcester team-mate and 'best friend' Basil D'Oliveira, who died on Saturday at the age of 80
Mike Selvey: Throughout all the political maelstrom, Basil D'Oliveira kept his counsel and his dignity
Vic Marks would have loved to have been a fly on the wall at Lord's during the Basil D'Oliveira affair in 1968.
M C C have never made a sadder, more dramatic, or potentially more damaging decision than in omitting d'Oliveira from their team to tour South Africa. Fifteen players have been named. The sixteenth will be a bowler; Jeff Jones of Glamorgan, if he is demonstrably fit after an operation on an elbow. If he is not, Higgs will probably be offered the place.

How can companies ensure that the Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) strategy balances user privacy with company security? And what can companies do to protect their staff against malware and data theft threats when many people are using company and personal devices together?
The IET will be exploring these questions and many more at their Security for Mobile Devices event, taking place in London on 20 June. The keynote address will be given by current IET President and Vice President of Public Affairs at Telefonica, Mike Short; and the day will also feature senior representatives of the GSM Association, Metropolitan Police, Mobile Data Association, IBM and Trend Micro.
The seminar chair is David Rogers of the Department for Business, Innovation & Skills, who said:
"Mobile devices are becoming much more enticing for cyber criminals and it won't be a surprise that the bad guys use their own mobile devices as much as anyone. GSM has been the underpinning technology for most mobility for a while now but how long can we rely on security designed well over 20 years ago?
This day will bring together government speakers and leading security professionals to discuss developments in mobile forensics, creating effective and sustainable policies and addressing challenges for the future. I'm delighted to be involved and hope to welcome key players from around the industry to London on 20 June."
The Security for Mobile Devices seminar will be held at RIBA, London, UK on 20 June 2012. You can book to attend online at http://conferences.theiet.org/mobile/index.cfm?origin=pro-security-zone

The handset is neatly put together and compact for a smartphone, even if the styling is functional rather than inspiring. It's sturdily built though - like the IBM of smartphones.
On the plus side, this Windows Mobile 6 smartphone has built-in GPS, Wi-fi and a large, high resolution touchscreen. However, data speeds are EDGE rather than 3G.
Windows devices are fairly easy to get to grips with, considering their functionality, and the E-TEN Glofiish X500+ is no different.
The Namecard Manager feature - which allows you to photograph a business card and store the information - was a little erratic, and the camera is average. Otherwise a solid performance all-round.
A little weak on the juice if the truth be told. Not the worst out there, but many smartphones offer better battery life.
Review by Sunetra Chakravati,12/12/2011 3:49:34 PM
Look and feel
Ease of use
Battery life
The built-in GPS sat-nav works very well.
The glofiish X500+ is not the smallest Pocket PC, nor is it the least expensive.
E-TEN is never contented with releasing just another smartphone. The company always has to do something special, something different, something unique. In the case of the glofiish X500+ this is combining GPS, Wi-Fi, Windows Mobile 6 Professional and a 640 x 480 pixel display in a normal sized smartphone. Oh, and there is an FM radio too.
Now, while we've seen all those features before, even the high resolution screen, this is the first time we've seen them in combination. The screen is probably the feature you'll come to take for granted soonest. It measures 2.8 inches corner to corner so is on a par with other Windows Mobile Pocket PC screens, and its higher resolution is something you'll just come to expect as normal after a short while. That is not to say it doesn't add a degree of clarity over more usual 240 x 320 pixel screens, just that it doesn't shout out at you every time you switch the gloffish X500+ on.
Slowly but surely, GPS is becoming a 'must have' addition to any smartphone. Sure, you can get by without it. But with it all you need to add is navigation software and you've got a satellite navigation device in your pocket.E-TEN doesn't go as far as including satellite navigation software with the X500+, but it does include one little utility you can use without any extra software. It's called Location SMS, and you can use it to send a text message which includes your current latitude and longitude. There are some predefined messages but it's easy to either edit these or create your own from scratch.
E-TEN is always generous with bundled software and in this case there is plenty to augment what you get as part of Windows Mobile 6 Professional. This latest version of Windows Mobile is itself still not by any means in all new Pocket PCs. It has many advantages over Windows Mobile 5.0 - far too many to list here.E-TEN's additions include utilities like backup and restore software, block and allow lists for the telephone, and software for editing photos that you shoot with the built-in 2.0 megapixel camera.
Then there's something called Namecard Manager. You take a photograph of a business card and then capture the contents into the contacts application. We found that when this works well it is really very good though it does have trouble with some business cards.You also get a utility that can put tappable icons for every application of the system onto the Windows Mobile Today Screen, and if you aren't particularly a Today Screen fan, then something called M-Desk replaces it altogether was an icon driven utility that sorts your applications into tapped pages.VerdictThe glofiish X500+ is not the smallest Pocket PC, nor is it the least expensive, but with a combination of hardware and software features that is difficult to beat the sheer ebullience of what is on offer deserves a second glance.

Limited color matte emerald r45 front hub
The R45 hubset is 20% lighter than the Classic hubset. with a sleek new hubshell bodies and new 17 mm axles. That's 17 mm from dropout to dropout resisting deflection during cornering or when the power is full on. Chris King designed a driveshell with a twin bearing design that responsibly removed as much weight as we could from the inner components. Even our patented RingDrive engagement system was redeveloped resulting in a quiet, fast-engaging 45-tooth stainless steel system unique to the R45 rear hub.

Jake Longstreth
Jake Longstreth's paintings interrogate the expansive space of a largely exurban landscape. His work explores both the industrial and the pastoral –– revealing their blurred dialogue. Longstreth reduces his images to their basic elements. His flat, light-filled paintings stray liberally from the photographs they are based on, inhabiting a middle ground of painterly subjectivity.

La Amistad will earn a place in the 2014 Melbourne Cup field if she wins the Group 3 Lexus Stakes (2500m) at Flemington on Saturday, but co-trainer Wayne Hawkes has revealed that he would not be particularly worried if the promising mare missed 'the race that stops a nation' next Tuesday.
La Amistad was one of the leading contenders in early 2014 Melbourne Cup betting markets, but she has not done enough to guarantee herself a place in the Group 1 event after failing to record a win in her five race starts this preparation.
The Redoute's Choice mare still has the chance to sneak into the Melbourne Cup field by winning the ballot-exempt Lexus Stakes this weekend, but Hawkes told RSN that he is already looking forward to 2015 with the three-quarter sister of Makybe Diva.
"We are not worried about that," Hawkes said.
"If it happens, it happens and if she doesn't then she wasn't good enough.
"We will go onto next year and I wish we were in 2015 right now because whatever she does this year, she will be a much better horse this time next year."
While Hawkes is not worried about whether La Amistad will get a run in the 2014 Melbourne Cup, he remains confident that the five-year-old will be more than competitive in the Lexus Stakes after she returned to a semblance of her best form with a second place finish behind Mulaqen in the Listed City Tattersalls Club Cup (2046m) at Royal Randwick on October 18.
Hawkes believes that La Amistad is due a change in luck and he is confident that the mare can deliver Team Hawkes a third win in the Lexus Stakes since 2010 if the Group 3 event is run at genuine tempo.
"She is going to be in it up to her ears," Hawkes said.
"She hasn't had much go right this campaign; she has been galloped on, drawn bad barriers and was too close second-up.
"If they trot, walk, canter and sprint home it might make it a bit harder for her, but if they run the Lexus at a good tempo I think we are a good chance of winning it again."
La Amistad is currently available at 2014 Melbourne Cup odds of $67, while she is priced at a quote of $8 to take out the Lexus Stakes this weekend.
Team Hawkes previously won the Lexus Stakes with Maluckyday in 2010 and Niwot in 2011 and both horses went on to run well in the Melbourne Cup just three days later.
