When Some Part of Your Life Seems Beyond Your Control
"God delays, but doesn't forget." — Spanish Proverb
Each month, I find it more difficult to meet my expenses until the end of the month, on my fixed income. As each month's end grows closer and I find myself without enough funds for essentials like food and medications, I find myself sinking into a dark hole of depression and anxiety. I worry that I'll become severely ill, as happened last year, spending months in the hospital. In today's still lingering economic downturn, it's frustrating for anyone who has lost a job or met financial setbacks. Those of us facing financial difficulty suddenly feel curtailed, with the rhythm of our lives changed in a way we never anticipated. But the Universe slows us down for a reason.
There can be gifts in adversity. They can give us some much-needed time alone, time to think. Being alone gives us the chance to find ourselves in a new way. We may be surprised to find some previously unknown inner resources. A period of waiting through adversity can also turn us to our Higher Power, God, or the Universe when the solace we need is beyond the capacity of people to give.
It's challenging to be able to do nothing when the world tells us that we must take action. When action isn't possible, accepting the circumstances of our lives enables us to experience the value of being, and not doing.

My story - Becoming a wildlife photographer
Nov 29, 2018
My early life and becoming a wildlife photographer I grew up in Langley British Columbia, Canada. 45 minutes outside of Vancouver BC. When I was 16 years old I moved from home and attended a Canadian Military program in Welland Ontario Canada. I spent two and half years in Military School. During those two and half years we would do many military exercises through all sorts of terrain. These exercises were conducted in the fall and winter seasons. This is where I got my first glimpse of a

Western Screech Owl When I made the decision to start photographing birds of prey and more specifically owls, I looked online for the different species we have here in British Columbia, Canada. It was quite apparent that we have a variety of Owls that call the lower mainland Fraser valley home. Some of our more common year round residents are the Great Horned Owls, Barred Owls, Northern Pygmy Owls and Barn Owls to list a few. There was one other owl on the list that caught my eye for their

Denise Brydon spends a weekend in Arisaig, where you can enjoy everything from beachcombing to a round of golf
Friday, 5pm
Escape the central belt and head north up the A85 through Rannoch Moor and Glencoe. Cross the A82 by the Ballachulish bridge with a customary wave to the stone monument to James of the Glen. Stop off at Fort William to pick up a curry from Spice Tandoori (www.spice-tandoori.com) and arrive at the Silversands (Silversands Camping and Caravan Site, Arisaig, Portnaluchaig, Inverness-shire PH39 4NT, 01687 450269 and ask for John McDonald. Prices start from £14 a pitch for a small tent and £18 for a caravan) just in time to enjoy the amazing Arisaig sunset over the islands of Rum and Eigg.
Saturday, 10am
After breakfast set off for a spot of beachcombing on the glittering sands that give the campsite its name. If you are brave, pull on wetsuits and go for a dip in the Sound of Arisaig. Stop for a chat with the friendly owners. There are plenty of people to talk to as campers come here from all over the world. Listen out for the whistle of the Jacobite Steam Train on its way to Mallaig (www.westcoastrailways.co.uk), which runs 9 May-28 October.
If the weather isn't blowing a gale, why not play a round on the most westerly golf course on the UK mainland? Traigh Golf Course (www.traighgolf.co.uk) offers a challenging nine holes, not least because you keep being distracted by the most amazing scenery. The clubhouse sells snacks and drinks. If you haven't brought your clubs then hire is available too.
There are plenty of places to go for dinner in Arisaig village or nearby Mallaig but try to get a table at the Chlachain Inn (www.westscotlandinn.co.uk) which serves superlative Cullen skink. If it's full then try the Steam Inn, also on Davies Brae. Jaffy's by the train station offers traditional fish and chips (www.jaffys.co.uk/jaffys-shop).
Sunday, 10am
An early morning swim in the sea equals a guilt free pit stop at the Glenfinnan Dining Car, which offers a free ticket to the quirky little railway station museum. (glenfinnanstationmuseum.co.uk/facilities/dining-car).

If you had a dollar to invest in your business, how would you decide where to invest?
Are you aligning content for effective sales enablement? For many, this might be at the bottom of the to-do list—if it's on there at all. But the truth is it's more important than most people realize.
"Fortune favors the prepared."
In the world of B2B sales, this couldn't be more true.
Let's talk about spreadsheets and slide decks. Nearly 80 percent of financial decisions are supported by spreadsheets, while one in two businesses use spreadsheets to prepare accounts. Despite this, 88 percent of spreadsheets contain errors. So, what do all these numbers mean—that businesses are still relying on error-ridden spreadsheets? Are these same spreadsheets costing them time and money? Sounds like a managerial headache waiting to happen.
It can be hard to market and sell a medical device when customers want so much functionality, customization, and one-on-one support. This is especially true if they expect, as many do, that your product will allow them to take advantage of emerging trends in the industry such as big data, telemedicine, and commoditization.
Sales enablement allows teams to gain insight and improve effectiveness. Equipped with the best tools and methodologies, teams can filter data and leverage metrics to ensure that their reps are empowered to sell—always and from anywhere. Sounds great, right? Well, enablement does demand some finesse. It requires teams to implement both the right techniques and the right technologies into their processes.
With more than 100,000 customers using Salesforce globally, it's safe to say the platform is the world's most popular customer relationship management (CRM) system. This should come as no surprise. The tool is used by savvy medtech sales professionals literally every day.
Companies that have a strong alignment between sales and marketing achieve an annual growth rate of 20 percent, according to Kapost. Mobility is growing rapidly as a business priority as more companies recognize the need for sales enablement. Here are four real-world examples of mobile sales enablement medtech companies should reference from across the Life Sciences industry.
For many sales and marketing professionals, starting the day with Salesforce is like starting the day with a cup of coffee. This habit not only informs the brain that it's time to start functioning, but it inspires productivity. Unlike coffee, however, making the most of Salesforce requires a little effort. To help, we've rounded up five expert Salesforce tips. From account planning to closing deals, here are ways to make the most of your CRM:
Life sciences sales reps spend a lot of time on the road and in customers' meetings — with HCPs, hospital and healthcare administrators, and others. While part of a sales team, the remote nature of their work means few opportunities to see their fellow sales reps, marketing, or other home office colleagues other than training or launch events.

5 Professional Copywriting Services to Take Your Marketing and Advertising Further, Part 3 of 3
I've saved the best for last.
In this final of a 3-part article series, I'm going to reveal to you the one thing that can ensure your business is profitable…for the long-term.
So without further ado, let's jump right in!
Copywriting Service #5: Split-Testing and Conversion Tracking
Did you know that all of your advertising can get better and better?
Here's a "little" secret…
Most marketers either don't do it the profitable way, or simply haven't heard of it.
Without going into too much detail, split-testing is just testing two ads or messages, finding out which of the 2 works better, and improving our findings.
For example, what would you do if you had an advertising campaign that gave you an ROI of 2:3? ($2 profit for every $3 invested.)
You'd be running a loss…but why?
The sad thing is that most marketers never look beyond this point. Or, they don't look further than they should.
This is another area where a pro copywriter and marketing strategist can help you.
Let's say we find that your advertising campaign consists of 2 different ads.
Upon closer inspection, we find that one of the ads is losing money, and the other one is actually profitable for you. The losing one costs you $4 for every $1 it brings in, and the winning one returns $2 for every $1.
At this point, we can eliminate your losing ad, and focus more of our advertising into the ad that works. The overall effect of this is that your previously-losing campaign will now turn in a profitable ROI of 2:1.
There's a little more to it, but that's essentially what split-testing is. Your copywriter, if they do split-testing, can explain this in more detail for you. Unfortunately, even though they may conceptually understand what split-testing is, most copywriters don't who know the technical aspects of split-testing on the web.
All of your advertising dollars can actually become an investment, instead of an expense, when this is done under the management of a good copywriter.
Conversion tracking is a little more involved. Basically, it's a split-test that tracks your prospects throughout your marketing funnel.
I hope I've begun to open you up to the many profitable advertising avenues that exist for your Internet business, and all of your projects.
If you've read each article in this series, this may seem like a lot, and it is. However, a great marketing strategist and copywriter can implement most of the things I've discussed in this series. Plus, this is a process that's done over time, since there's no such thing as an overnight success.

History and Mission
Concerts on The Slope
was inspired by the shared vision of cellist Benjamin Larsen, the parish of St. John's Episcopal Church, its former rector, Father Clark Powers, and its music director, Cryder Bankes, to provide accomplished emergent performers with something that can be difficult to come by performance opportunities.
Beginning in March 2012, talented musicians each month have brought a wide variety of repertoire and remarkably diverse musical styles to historic St. John's Church, located in one of the most scenic and culturally active neighborhoods in the city—Park Slope, Brooklyn.
This series, organized by Benjamin Larsen, is affiliated with the music program of St. John's and would not be possible without the gracious support and volunteer work of Cryder Bankes, who helps organize and introduces each program, and works tirelessly to promote the series through word of mouth, print, broadcast and social media.
Other volunteers include Karen Larsen, who formats the programs from her home in Rhode Island, Jerry Kajpust, who designed and maintains our new website and is responsible for social media promotion, Susan Maldovan, a writer and editor who assists with grant writing and communications, our talented graphic designer, Maria Moyser, and members of St. John's parish, who help with refreshments, lighting, and preparing the space for each concert.
This is a great opportunity to catch some rising stars, and say you heard them before they were big! If you're in Brooklyn, you already have an idea of how convenient it is to get to St. John's, but if you're not familiar with Brooklyn, you probably don't know how easy it is. Take a look at the directions page, and you'll see that it's a five-minute walk from some of the most accessible trains in the city.
As of September 2015,
Concerts on the Slope, Inc.
is a non-profit organization and is exempt from taxation under section 501(c)3 of the IRS Code. All donations are tax-deductible to the full extent of the law.

I would like to start off by saying that when it comes to applying under eye concealer...
...less is more.
The whole point of concealer is to distract from an area. Therefore, the more concealer you apply, the more attention you will draw to it. There are some cases when it will be impossible to totally conceal under eye darkness, but you can always minimize.
Selecting the proper concealer shade is very important.
Quite often many woman will select a shade that is too light. And in doing so, will end up highlighting the area of concern.
When it comes to selecting the correct shade, you want to select a color that closely matches your skin (or perhaps a tad lighter). This is why I highly recommend going into a department or cosmetic specialty store and trying a few.
I'll be honest, it's challenging to find a concealer that works. Some are either too thick while others are too thin. The best concealers are the ones with a lot of pigment, but have a light consistency.
*A concealer brush - I know that many women prefer using their fingers when applying under eye concealer, but from my own professional experience I suggest using a concealer brush.
When using your fingers the concealer will not adhere to the skin properly because each time you touch skin to skin you actually keep removing the concealer. Also, by using your fingers it will cause you to initially apply too much.
How To:
*After selecting the perfect concealer shade, apply some to the top of either one of your hands. Preferably between the webbing of your thumb and index finger. This will allow the product to warm and soften for a smoother application.
*Take your concealer brush and tap the flat side lightly into the concealer, then brush it back and forth over the top of the same hand to thin out the product. This will also assist in getting the concealer on both sides of the brush.
*When first applying concealer under your eyes always start from the outer corner, then gradually move inward and up toward the eyelash line. By doing this you'll find it easier to control where you wish to place the concealer.
*Be sure to apply the concealer only to the dark area under your eyes, not below it. Be very specific.
*Do not swipe the concealer on, tap it. By taping it you will slowly build coverage and avoid applying too much.
*Once you get the concealer on, use the sides of the brush to feather the edges so that it blends naturally into the rest of your skin.
*If you choose to use powder to set the concealer, please be sure to use as little as possible. Too much powder will cause a dry-flaky effect.
I personally don't use powder when applying concealer to a client because it looks more natural.
You'll find that if you apply your concealer as I have shared on this post, unless you tend to be extremely oily around your eye area, you won't need to use powder in order to set it.
Additional Tips:
*If you use an eye cream before applying your concealer, be sure to blot the under eye area with a soft tissue to absorb any excess. Too much eye cream will cause your concealer to breakup and move.
*You can also apply concealer to the inner corners of your eyes (the bridge) and also to the your eyelids to lighten up the eye area.
*Stay away from using green under eye concealer. Green is only effective in concealing areas on the face that are prone to redness not darkness. Green concealer will actually turn a dark area purple.
*If you have any doubt about which concealer shade is right for you, always choose one that has more yellow than pink. Yellow conceals better.
Remember...concealing is an art. So the more you practice, the better you become.
Here are some concealers that I have worked with and found to be effective.
Concealer brush: Sephora Professionnel Platinum Concealer Brush
I hope this post helps you!

|And here I am - lounging at Camp Citron!
I would especially like to thank James Bacchi of ArtHaus San Francisco for working with me to curate this marvelous collection of artwork. Patter Hellstrom's "Hungry Ghost Dream" was the perfect abstract piece to anchor the entire room. I love its movement and energy - and the colours were perfect for the space. Jhina Alvarado's "Sailboat" and "Piggy-back Ride" were an early choice for the room. I find their ghostly nostalgia incredibly compelling.
tartan accessories, selected from the designer's own textile and home decor
collection, Scot Meacham Wood Home, launching this fall. Sporting goods
such as an antique croquet set and bespoke kayaks imbue the space
with a lively, adventurous feel."

Obama: Lame-Duck Legislation Marks New 'Season of Progress'
President Obama, preparing to leave Washington after a busy lame-duck session, claimed Wednesday that Congress has not been this productive in decades -- arguing that the breakout of bipartisanship is a sign that America's lawmakers are "not doomed to endless gridlock."
The president called an end-of-year news conference to tout a slew of recent victories in Congress, before heading out to join his family on vacation in Hawaii. He expressed disappointment that the so-called DREAM Act, as well as a full-blown budget, did not pass. But he suggested the series of votes taken over the past several days should challenge assumptions that Washington will grind to a halt once control of Congress is split between both parties.
"Instead this has been a season of progress for the American people," Obama said. "This has been the most productive post-election period we've had in decades, and it comes on the heels of the most productive two years that we've had in generations."
Republicans would take issue with the latter part of that statement, having complained for the past two years that they were railroaded by Obama and the Democrat-controlled Congress. But after Republicans seized control of the House and made gains in the Senate in the November elections, leaders in both parties were able to come together on several key pieces of legislation during the lame-duck session.
Obama said Wednesday he's not "naive" but that those agreements demonstrate Washington is capable of reaching "common ground." He said he would push in 2011 for spending cuts, something Republicans are likely to support, but also for a new version of the DREAM Act to give younger illegal immigrants who join the military or attend college a chance at legal status. That proposal died last weekend, a vote Obama called his "biggest disappointment."
Obama said he would lobby for the bill next year and is willing to listen to new ideas about border security.
"I'm going to go back at it," Obama said.
The remarks came at the tail end of a tumultuous lame-duck congressional session marked by caustic debates which gave way to significant legislative accomplishments in the final days.
Obama on Wednesday signed the repeal of the "don't ask, don't tell" policy banning gays from serving openly in the military. The ceremony marked the end of a controversial policy, one Obama called a "long-standing injustice," which has been in place since 1993.
"This is the right thing to do for our security. It's the right thing to do, period," Obama said Wednesday.
The same day, the Senate ratified a long-sought arms reduction treaty with Russia -- a document which required the support of two-thirds of the chamber and which could not be changed without both nations returning to the negotiating table.
The Senate also passed a bill to provide health benefits and aid to Sept. 11 first responders and victims, sending it to the House for a final vote.
The flurry of activity came after Congress first cleared away a massive bill to extend the Bush tax cuts. That package, as a result of bipartisan negotiations involving Congress and Obama administration officials, ended up including several additional tax-credit provisions and billions worth of long-term unemployment aid. Though hailed as a victory by leaders in both parties, the bill sets up a fight two years down the road when the Bush tax cut provisions are set to expire.
Obama vowed Wednesday to push for taxes on the wealthy to increase, while Republicans plan to fight for all rates to stay the same. That debate will fall in the middle of the 2012 presidential race.

I have a Nexus 7 (2013) 2nd generation tablet, with Android 4.4 installed. I am also running the latest version of blio.
I am reading a library rental book and I get stuck on the same page in single page view, as well as two page view. I can get back to the table of contents and open the next chapter, but after a page or two, I get stuck on a page.
I have signed out of the app. Uninstalled and reinstalled the app. And deleted the Blio directory in between uninstalling and reinstalling. And yet the problem persists.
I have tried opening another library rental and get the same error. I also got a formatting error screen, telling me that:
"Error on line 14 at column 12: opening and ending tag: br line 0 and p
Below is a rendering of the page up to the first error"
What is the title/author or the ISBN of the book? It sounds like a bad (corrupt) file and I want to see if it is the copy you have that is an issue or the one on the server.
I've tried that title and it does appear to be working.
I've sent you both an email to try to see what exactly is going on. I'd like to speak to either of you on the phone and see if I can figure out what is going on so i can post it here.
I just wanted everyone to know what I've found. It appears that the new update to Kitkat has caused a number of issues relating to a number of features. The development team is working on a fix.
Please keep an eye on the official thread for more information.
The issue has been fixed and the update is now available.

I have a Windows share (shared from a Windows Server 2003 box) that is mounted on our Ubuntu server using cifs. That mount is then shared out through Samba. The issue is that all of the folders in the share display as FILES. For example, imagine this folder structure:
>Share Level >> FolderOne >>> File >> FolderTwo >> FileOne
So, when I enter the root of the share from a Windows 7 machine, FolderOne, FolderTwo and FileOne all display as files. If I attempt to enter FolderOne by clicking on it's icon, it fails. If I go directly to the folder with a UNC path (\\server\share\FolderOne) I can enter the folder correctly.
Options on the CIFS mount: dirmode=0770, file_mode=0770, rw
Samba options on the share:
writeable = yes printable = no browseable = yes force user = <primary file owner> force group = <primary file group> valid users = <needed access>
This is an Ubuntu 12.04.2 server running Samba 3.6.3.

A Sad, Sad Wiggly Day...
Now some parents would be elated at this news as one more rendition of "Hot Potato" or "Big Red Car" might drive them to the looney bin. But I, on the other hand, really enjoy those silly kids songs.
I've watched my Children grow up singing and dancing to those four Australian guys in their brightly colored skivies (t-shirts to us yanks). I've danced right along with them more times than I can count. I've been a regular visitor and sometimes, a contributor on the Wiggles Message Boards (which is really cool, because some of the guys actually answer questions and post regularly). I even went to great lengths to get Collette into a special "meet and greet" with them last spring when they were in San Jose.
I am proud to say that we actually own every Wiggles DVD released here in the US and we still watch them regularly. Last year, when Greg Page (a founding member and the original yellow Wiggle) retired due to health reasons, Sam Moran took over his spot. Now don't get me wrong, Sam is a very talented singer and is very competent in his spot, but it was at this time that the group decided to "go back to it's roots" of singing educational songs for preschoolers. My kids have decided that these "nursery rhyme" type songs are just too babyish for them and this year, the concert is not on their list of "must-do's" for the year as it always has been in years past.
Call me crazy, but I'm pretty disappointed. The energy and fun at these shows is just so big, it can't even be described. Plus, I won't get to see my dear Captain Feathersword in person - sheesh...take away all my fun!
Do you think people would think I'm just a bit looney if I went to a concert all by myself? I could even bring my own sign that reads "Pink Lemonade Mom loves Captain Feathersword"...what do you think??...too over the top?? I guess it's just one of those facts of life that we must all deal with...the kids don't want to hold you hand anymore in public...they don't want a kiss goodbye at school where other kids can see...and now they don't want to love the Wiggles along with me anymore...just another rite of passage...for them, not me...

I would so think you're a loony if you went by yourself HAHA but on the other hand I enjoy watching kid shows/movies too... hehe I would still get a laugh if you went solo :) People would be like, what is she some kid snatcher or something why is she all alone at a kids concert lol

Sad! But yeah that happens PLM. I myself turned 18 just the last month, and sometimes feel like my mom's crazy when she wants me to do things that I used to do since I was a kid to till now, but don't like to no more.

Thanks for stopping by my blog a while back, sorry I am so late with my thank yous.....

Don't you just hate it when the kiddos start to grow up.....*sigh*

I love me some Wiggles. But oh how I miss Greg. I had a bit of a crush (shh!!) on him. We've never gotten to see them live, but I know the peapod squad would have a blast.
Sorry you're not going to get to see Captain Feathersword. Arrrrgh.

UK soldier pleads guilty to assault charge, denies other charges
[JURIST] A UK soldier facing court-martial in Germany on charges of mistreating Iraqi civilians pleaded guilty Tuesday to one assault charge, but denied another charge. Two other soldiers from the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers [official site], Corp. Daniel Kenyon and Lance Corp. Mark Cooley, pleaded not guilty to charges of abusing detainees [JURIST report] at a camp outside Basra in May 2003. Lance Corp. Darren Larkin admitted that he assaulted an Iraqi detainee who was being held with others for looting food. The three soldiers face nine charges among them and could be discharged and imprisoned if convicted during the expected three- to four-week court-martial. BBC News has more.

Science and industry constantly remind us that technology is very much at the forefront of innovation today. We are constantly reminded and inundated with all manner of hardware and software that are ultimately designed to make certain parts of our lives easier. From the flush toilet to quantum
computing, there is a piece of advanced technology for every niche and every walk of life to benefit from. As computing power reaches absurd levels of speed capability and become infinitesimally small, innovation will continue on a scale and pace never before seen by any facet of human civilization.
To know and to speculate on the wonders that humanity will see in the coming weeks and years is astounding, and will of course change millions of lives. Perhaps even yours will one day benefit greatly from a now-young piece of hardware or software.
One of these up and coming technologies (if you could indeed refer to it as 'up-and-coming,') is cloud computing. Yes, you might have heard this term thrown around from time to time in reference to a new corporate initiative, or perhaps through Google's current advances. However, what exactly is
cloud computing? Well, think of it as the ultimate in an on-demand experience: take everything that you experience when you use a computer, the programs and data and settings and media, and instead of physically storing them on a local drive, you store them on third-party servers. If and when you need them, they can be accessed at nearly any location with an Internet connection. How is that for innovation?

Thousands of members of the MUA and other unions today flooded the front steps of the West Australian Parliament House in opposition to foreign workers being used on resource projects when there are local workers available, and insufficient industry moves to train and upskill locals.
About 5000 people marched up Hay Street to the West Perth headquarters of Gina Rinehart's Hancock Prospecting in protest of the private company's move to bring 1700 foreign workers onto the Roy Hill project in the Pilbara on an enterprise migration agreement.
MUA Deputy National Secretary Mick Doleman said the rally was not against foreign labour as blanket policy, rather, the unions wanted to see more done to train and employ Australians.
The message has been blasted in WA for several months now through a string of small and larger rallies, which have targeted Chevron's Gorgon gas project and more recently Hancock Prospecting's Roy Hill.
"The union movement - from its inception to this very day has been a multi-cultural organisation," Mr Doleman said.
"If you take the first example of the union struggle being the rebellion in 1884 at the Eureka Stockade in Ballarat, every nationality was there on that picket line.
"If you need a more recent example of the trade union movement at large, in 1949 - four years after the (Second world) war the hydro-electric scheme was built in New South Wales and every nationality in the world worked on that.
"They all worked together in a union, in a union movement that was multi-cultural."
MUA West Australian Branch Secretary Chris Cain renamed Gina Rinehart as Gina No-Heart for the occasion.
"I want to mention Gina No-Heart and I want to mention Chevron," Mr Cain told the crowd.
"And we say to these people - these multi nationals - Woodside, BHP and Chevron - if you're going to work in our country, you're going to pick up our labour."
CFMEU national secretary Michael O'Connor said: "The reality is that we need migration in this country year in year out and we support it.
"We look after people when they come here - unions are very keen about making sure all workers have their rights protected, including overseas workers.
"But this is about supporting local kids first, looking after people who are unemployed now, trying to make sure the people who have been made redundant get training opportunities and opportunities to work in the mining sector."
Mr O'Connor said the the demonstration, which stopped traffic on Hay Street, one of Perth's major city streets, was designed to send a message to miners and politicians that they had the support of the community.
"People in the community know people that have got the right training, the right work ethic and still can't get a start," he said.
"We've always asked that the process needs to be transparent."
Australian Manufacturing Workers Union WA state secretary Steve McCartney told the crowd more had to be done to train Australia's youth and protect the nation's struggling manufacturing sector.
"There's $220 billion worth of project work yet to go in Western Australia, there's millions of dollars worth of manufacturing work going to India and China and there's thousands of kids on the Kwinana strip who can't get a job," he said.
"At the end of the day it's our gas, it's our rocks and it's our jobs."
Hancock Prospecting had shut the blinds on the front of the unassuming Ventnor Avenue building, while two security guards lined the inside of the main entrance and WA Police had a couple of officers posted outside.
No representatives from the company addressed the crowd.
But last week Roy Hill chief executive Barry Fitzgerald defended the company's EMA, saying the project would still need more than 6000 Australian workers over its life.
"The fact is that we need to find a lot of Australian labour through ourselves and our contractors because that's the first part of delivering this confidence to our financiers that we can build the project," he said.
"It's a risk management strategy and it's something that we need to do, to put in place, to convince the financiers that we have a total solution, not a part solution."
The unions also called for more transparency over the use of the Federal Government's online Resources Sector Jobs Board, which companies are compelled to list positions on prior to securing an EMA, with some arguing the process was still unfair to local workers.

Some work I did in the 80s...reflecting my obsession with American imperialism, amongst other things, such as existentialism, which we all thought about between marching against The Bomb and listening to Jazz, you know...oh, it was the 50s all over again...

Thanks Monkey...not many survived, although a lot of others went into little magazines I made...lost most of the original artwork...ReplyDelete
Great stuff Mr InvisibleReplyDelete
Shame that more haven't survived
But then again the 2010s may also be the new 1950s - perhaps its time to start making some more???
Keep up the good work sir
Cheers MM...I approach Politics from a different perspective these days, but crude cut'n'paste collage is still appealing as a medium.ReplyDelete
Keep those vinyl goodies coming.

It's a tangled web that nature weaves. The typical ecosystem is filled with organisms that are linked in some way — one preys on the other, or lives off the other parasitically, or depends on the other in some way.
Honeybees and caterpillars, however, have little to do with each other, even though they often exist in the same ecosystem. The honeybee pollinates plants while foraging for nectar; the caterpillar eats foliage. They are like two ships passing in the night.
So it may come as a surprise to learn that honeybees actually have an impact on caterpillars, in an indirect way. The buzz of bees flying by, researchers report in Current Biology, causes caterpillars to stop destroying plants.
Jürgen Tautz and Michael Rostas of the University of Würzberg in Germany conducted a simple experiment with pepper plants and beet armyworm caterpillars in two enclosed tents. A hive was connected to one of the tents, and honeybees flew around on their way to two sugar-solution feeders inside the tent.
After about two weeks, the researchers measured the amount of plant foliage eaten by the caterpillars. In the tent with the bees, they discovered, about 60 percent to 70 percent less foliage was consumed compared with the other tent.
Like many other caterpillars, the army beetworm has sensory hairs that are stimulated by airborne vibrations. And like many other caterpillars, this species is preyed upon by wasps. So it has a wasp-avoidance technique: when it senses the vibrations, it stops moving or drops off the plant.Continue reading the main story
The researchers suggest the caterpillars do the same thing when they sense the vibrations from honeybees. So even though the bees don't prey on caterpillars, they have a deterrent effect, helping plants in the process.Continue reading the main story

What You Need to Know When Choosing 4 Bedroom House Plans
One of the most exciting and fulfilling activity is choosing 4 bedroom house plans. When you place this at number one of your priorities, it's even more fun. Nonetheless, as you begin the great search, keep emotions out of it completely. In the beginning of this long journey there are a couple of things that you need to consider. Having a good knowledge of how house plans are drawn does not only save you time but also money. When you go out looking for your perfect house plan, keep the following in mind.
A house plan is made to bring some improvement to the existing housing style. In this time and age, many families prefer the casual lifestyle which is soothing and relaxing. If you need convenience, then you should try and live a casual lifestyle as it provides a very good atmosphere. Finding an open floor plan is a wise idea as it gives you a large home perspective which is very convenient when it comes to downsizing it later.
4 Bedroom House Floor Plans
When planning the size of your rooms, keep in mind the furniture that you own at that time. The storage room should be spacious enough to accommodate not only the regular storage but also the seasonal storage needs. This room should also have enough cabinets to handle daily storage needs. When looking at 4 bedroom house plans, decide whether you need a formal dining room or the kitchen/dining room style. Check for 4 bedroom house floor plans with a hearth room. This room is usually very important in ensuring your family is relaxed due to the cozy atmosphere it creates. Furthermore, the room can be used for different purposes. The size of your bedrooms is very important as they take up a lot of space. You can decide to minimize the bedrooms later to save up on space if necessary. It's considered wise to plan for one guest room instead of an extra bedroom which may go for three months without use.
4 Bedroom 3 Bath House Plans
The master bedroom is one of the most important rooms in your home and therefore it should be carefully planned. Despite the obvious considerations such as the windows, wall space and storage space, you should also consider the location of your bedroom. One thing you need to consider is access to the sun as it's important in warming up the room but can also be uncomfortable. If you are not looking at 4 bedroom 3 bath house plans, then ensure the bathroom is convenient enough and can be easily accessible. You can look at some 4 bedroom house plans that save space by slotting in laundry closets with a washer and a drier. If you are planning to fit the Main suite with a kitchenette, ensure the floor plan includes a microwave, coffee maker and a fridge for convenience.
In this time and age fashion and trends dictate how we live. Currently, trends have changed the way we view the kitchen area. Once used as a cooking area, these days many families spend time together in the kitchen. It's good to look at plans with an open kitchen where you will spend valuable time with your family.

Shamsi Airfield

Shamsi Airfield, also known as Bhandari Airstrip, is an airfield situated about 200 miles (320 km) southwest of Quetta and about 248 miles (400 km) northwest of Gwadar in the Balochistan province of Pakistan. The airfield is located in Washuk District and nestled in a barren desert valley between two ridges of the Central Makran Range approximately 21 miles (35 km) southeast of the village of Washuk.
Shrouded in secrecy, Shamsi was leased by Pakistan to the United Arab Emirates in 1992[1] for game hunting purposes and, between 20 October 2001 and 11 December 2011, it was leased to the United States for use as a base for joint Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and United States Air Force (USAF) surveillance and drone operations (particularly those involving Predator drones) against militants in Pakistan's Federally Administered Tribal Areas. The United States was ordered to vacate the airfield by the Pakistani Government on 26 November 2011 after the Salala Incident in which US-led NATO forces attacked two Pakistani border checkposts in Pakistan's Federally Administered Tribal Areas killing 24 Pakistan Army soldiers. The United States vacated the airfield on 11 December 2011.
Lease by the United Arab Emirates (1992–2001)[edit]
The disused Bhandari Airstrip was leased to the United Arab Emirates (UAE) by the Government of Pakistan in 1992 for game hunting, particularly that of falconry and rare Bustards in Balochistan province, by members of the UAE royal families. The airstrip, which was renamed "Shamsi" (meaning "Solar" in Arabic) by the Emirati Sheikhs, was developed into a jet capable airfield by the UAE.[2]
Lease by the United States (2001–2011)[edit]
At the request of the United States, Shamsi was sub-leased by the UAE to the United States on 20 October 2001 with the approval of then Pakistani Government of President Pervez Musharraf and was further developed jointly by the CIA and the USAF as a military airfield.[2] The US constructed two permanent and one portable hangars at Shamsi for housing drones, in addition to support and residential facilities, and recarpeted the asphalt runway to enable its use by large and heavy military aircraft.
On the night of 9 January 2002, a United States Marine Corps KC-130R refuelling aircraft crashed after hitting a ridgeline on approach to Shamsi, possibly due to crew disorientation, resulting in the deaths of all seven crew members on board.[3]
In February 2009, The Times (London) claimed that it had obtained Google Earth images from 2006 that showed Predator drones parked outside a hangar at the end of the runway at Shamsi. The Times investigation was in response to a statement by US Senator Dianne Feinstein that the CIA was basing its drone aircraft in Pakistan. The US company Blackwater was also reported to have a presence there, hired by the government to arm the drones with missiles.[4] The Pakistani Government had initially denied that the airfield was being used as a base for US military or covert operations but confirmed the same later. The New York Times cited a senior Pakistani military official as saying that in 2009 the drone operations were moved across the border to Afghanistan.[4]
US friction with Pakistan and eviction (2011)[edit]
On 13 May 2011, following the Abbotabad Incident of 2 May 2011, Air Chief Marshal Rao Qamar Suleman, Chief of the Air Staff, Pakistan Air Force (PAF) confirmed, in an in-camera briefing to a joint sitting of the Pakistani Parliament, that Shamsi was not under the control of the PAF, but under UAE control.[5]
In June 2011, Pakistan publicly ordered the US to remove all its personnel from the airfield.[6] The United States and Pakistan announced a few days later that drone operations from the airfield had actually ceased in April 2011.[7]
On 26 November 2011, Pakistan ordered the United States to vacate the base within 15 days in response to the Salala Incident, in which US military aircraft attacked two Pakistani border checkposts 2.5 km inside Pakistani territory and killed 24 Pakistani troops.[8][9][10][11][12] Although drone operations originating at the base had ceased in April 2011, the US was apparently still using the airfield for emergency landings and logistical support.[13]
On 4 December 2011, the first US military aircraft arrived at Shamsi to evacuate US military personnel and equipment.[14] A total of seven US military aircraft, including C-17 Globemasters, landed at Shamsi in the coming week for evacuation purposes and US equipment and personnel were evacuated in 30 sorties.[15] On 9 December 2011, soldiers of Pakistan's Frontier Constabulary arrived at the nearby village of Washuk to position themselves to retake Shamsi. All roads to and from Shamsi were closed. Some US equipment was destroyed by the US military.[15] The US finally vacated Shamsi on 11 December 2011 with two flights carrying the remaining US soldiers and equipment.[16][17] Soldiers of the Pakistan Army, the Frontier Constabulary and officials of Pakistan's Civil Aviation Authority[1] immediately took control of the airfield.[15][18] A photograph of the airfield taken on 11 December 2011 and officially released by the Pakistani military's Directorate of Inter-Services Public Relations and published in the British The Telegraph newspaper shows Pakistan Army soldiers and a Pakistan Army Mil Mi-17 helicopter at Shamsi shortly after the US vacated the airfield.[19]

A warm welcome to Network Jersey - a friendly, fast growing non-profit networking club that is open to anyone who would like to attend its regular events. Network Jersey is the vision of co-founders Andy Ozouf and Lindsay Wright, with the focus on providing regular opportunities for individuals to network, and enjoy themselves at the same time. There's no joining fee, no hidden agenda and no strings attached. So what are you waiting for? just sign up as a member, show up to one or more of our events, and be confident you'll get to know others who could become friends and/or business contacts.
Needs into text
Network Jersey was born out of the desire to establish a networking club with a difference – to provide the opportunity for anyone and everyone to connect with others in a friendly, social environment conducive to business and social networking. This is done through regular events both formal and informal that people want to attend rather than need to attend. Our networking philosophy is simple – make connections, develop relationships and create opportunities. Too often networks and networking are based on self-promotion. We believe in putting a diverse range of people in a relaxed setting and helping them connect in a way that's best for them. Our goal is to help you have as much fun networking as we do! There are no attendance commitments, nor are there any joining or annual fees. The only charge made is for certain events, to cover the costs of venue hire and refreshments. Network Jersey is also set up as a Not-for-Profit Organisation (NPO) which means that any surplus profits will go to local charities. The Calendar provides a full list of upcoming events. We combine quality networking events in Jersey with online networking to help you network, create contacts, make connections, build lasting relationships and develop business opportunities. Network Jersey has a rolling monthly networking event calendar, with something happening almost every week at some of Jersey's best venues.
Tuesdays at Ten
Meeting every Tuesday morning between 10am and 11am over a coffee (or tea). Acquaint yourself with fellow networkers in a relaxed setting when you have that mid-morning gap in your diary. You will receive location and date reminders by email or through LinkedIn.
Fridays at Five
Meeting every third Friday of the month after work for a quick drink or two. Socialise, wind down after a busy week and catch up with contacts. You will receive location and date reminders by email or through LinkedIn.
The Interview Series
A series of exclusive interview evenings throughout the year where a prominent well known person will be the subject of a live on stage interview. There will also be opportunity to participate in a Q&A session with the guest interviewee and of course plenty of time to network and socialise, both before and after the event.
Further Events
We will look to run a number of events run throughout the year which will appeal to a wide range of individuals and businesses to attend including wine tastings, presentations, demonstrations etc. And of course providing the opportunity for networking! In addition Network Jersey will regularly take a table (or two) at many of the Island's other networking events (Chamber lunch, JADO Dinner, Enterprise Awards etc.) for those that wish to join us.

Family - One of N's homework projects for the week was to some find signs of autumn, so we enjoyed a family walk with Seb after school one evening and collected some pine cones, berries and autumn leaves on the local sand dunes and pine woods. I also got the book Nature's Day for the children and I have really been enjoying reading it to them, N can look through this book for hours, visually it is beautiful and it is such a great present idea for any young children.
Beauty - I am still impressed with Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua Make-Up, so I replenished my empty bottle. For my birthday I sadly never got a bottle of Aqua Di Parma Magnolia Nobile, but a local boutique is now stocking it and I managed to bag a sample which has only reconfirmed that I love this fragrance and need to treat myself asap.
Fashion - Nothing for Moi this week, just L again (she has a better wardrobe than any of us, can't resist) who got two new dresses for the winter, this one from Zara (which looks very cute with her Navy chelsea boots) and this paisley print dress from Next, which looks adorable with the red velvet mary janes that I also got from Next last month.
Right, I need to get out of the PJ's (sad face, my little operation has been a great excuse to wear my beloved Hush PJ's 24/7) and resume some normality and get back into normal clothes.

"favours for mates" rife in Queensland planning
