16st 7
Hello all 13ers.
I'm on day 5 of no wine, cheese, bread etc. Home from work and hungry. Need to plan my evening meal or I will slip and pick on junk.
Evening all.
cafecito, I'm sure tomorrow will be a better day.
I know what you mean about feeling hungry Shybairns. And I'm finding everything tastes better when I'm actually hungry for it rather than eating for the sake of it.
2 days til I weigh in. I'm hoping for a good loss that'll give me a big incentive to carry on as I am.
Evening all!
Have done well today. Even though I had some Pringles and a biscuit, I managed to stop after ONE biscuit and a FEW Pringles. Normally I would plough my way through the entire tube/packet!
I'm 70 cals under my daily allowance and have managed to drink 2litres of sugar fee squash. Not attempted any exercise yet, that will be my biggest potential fail so I am trying to create good habits first before I think about this.
Feeling the need to raid the fridge for cheese so off to bed now
Morning all.
Well done CJMommy
5 days 'till weigh in for me. I've done okish over the weekend. Ate the healthy meals I'd planned but had some chocolate too, that was left over from Christmas.
All weekend I was looking forward to having a walk every weekday, but now I really cba. I will go out though and I know I'll feel better for it.
Have a great day all
I know it's not much, but I've just done a 1.26 km fast walk (mapped on mapmyrun.com) At least it's a start. I may get the shred out and do that later too.
Morning everyone, hope you've had a good weekend.
Been good all weekend until last night when pizza beckoned!
Noilly well done with the walk, I've been the same looking forward to getting out today. Now that it's here I cba either, however it's a dry morning here so there is no excuse really. When DS was younger I walked the school run everyday, I don't think it's a coincidence that my weight gain started when he moved up to secondary school!
Weigh in tomorrow. Hope I've shed my christmas food baby. It was huge.
I woke up at 11 this morning too late to go to the gym, and drove in to town. V v bad.
Will do gym tomorrow.
Can I join too? I am about 13 stone 7 (will weigh tomorrow) and need to lose about 4 stone (although anything under 11 stone would be great). I lost 4 stone to get to 10 stone 7 a couple of years ago and have stress ate my way back up to my current weight. I am short and apple shaped so it is so not healthy. At my heaviest I was 14 stone 10 around October time.
I went to the GP about a year ago with chronic fatigue and after a blood test and a scan was told I have the beginnings of a fatty liver. I was supposed to go back for a repeat blood test at the end of last year but haven't lost any weight so too afraid to . It's rubbish, I am eating and drinking my way into ill health at the moment. Haven't had a drink since NYE so am going for a dry January.
I would love to be able to wear a nice dress next Christmas. Have a wardrobe full of lovely clothes that won't go up past my knees . Have actually done ok food wise over the last week or so as I have such bad toothache (have dentist appointment next week) that I haven't felt like eating. Don't recommend it though.
Hello all.
The weight comes off and the weight goes on, so having a rethink. Have done well today, porridge for breakfast, a banana for snack, very low fat pasta, chicken and pea risottoish (chicken carcass in slow cooker for a few hours with onions, pick meat off and add rice/pasta) another banana and orange and then I am coping with the hours between coming home and eating.
Supper is going to be gammon, cooked in slow cooker and a big wodge of steamed veg with a mustard dressing. Planning to try and do filling and interesting veg sides for supper and cut down on potatoes, pasta and rice.
I walked back from work to the car, quickly, calves and bum muscles ached and out of breath going up the hill.
Went for a walk today and did 30 mins of brisk walking, I can walk quite far but would like to start running and am thinking of starting the couch to 5k, has anyone else done this?
On the food front have been good all day, soup for lunch and salmon with pasta for dinner.
I had a shockingly bad day, totally fell off the wagon, probably because I ate nothing until about 6pm, then went crazy- now sat here past midnight eating big bags of nuts at my laptop feeling fat!
I did go shopping though (again, not good- lured by nuts and things) but bought spinach, kale, broccoli and asparagus and some more almond milk (haven't started the no dairy yet)- will make sure my fridge is full of healthy things so I have no excuse to stuff my face with whatever I find when I am hungry.
it was my birthday today hence the comfort eating snacking thing I think (am very stressed at the moment about exams and other things).
Dig I want to start running. I went for a couple of runs before new year and felt great afterwards but could only manage about 2k, and slowly. I want to start the couch to 5k program properly but couldn't find written instructions for it anywhere
Well I woke up and weighed myself and put a pound on since last week
I am officially rubbish. I have spent all weekend eating my through the Christmas choc
I don't even like choc that much . Idiot .
Children are back at school today so I am hoping that today is the start of better things .
Sounds like you have done the same dorset , shall we kick each other ?
Happy birthday Cafecito birthdays are exempt from dieting I've downloaded the c25k podcasts from the NHS site and it gives a week by week description of the plan here
January is a quiet month for me work wise so I'm going to try and get stuck into the plan, I work from home so get very little excersise otherwise.
Had my first weekly weigh in this morning and have lost 4lbs so back to my pre Christmas weight, just the rest to shift now!
Well done dig ! That is a fab loss in a week .
Right I am going to do the shred of evil next week , I don't think I can face it just yet , I should be able to see a good loss without it this week .
Excuses excuses
I have officially slipped into the obese category very very sad face .
I have joined my fitness pal if anyone is on there and wants to add me . I am called neverthisfatagain .
No more messing about , it has got to be done !
Well done Dig!
Weighed in this morning and 4 1/2 pounds off. I know this will be mostly fluid but it's a good incentive to stay motivated.
I'm still kicking myself for allowing the weight to creep
pile back on when I'd been doing so well back in the autumn. I lost control of it and just didn't really care. Well I certainly care now that none of my clothes fit or look nice. And I weigh the same as I did a few months after I'd give birth!
To my fellow 13ers who are struggling, I hope you can get back on track.
I've done a quick recce of who's in and there are 34 of us! I know there are a few similar threads so people may be on both and we'll have a few drop outs over the weeks once the new year flurry has died down… will it be you? Or me!!!
I've made some quick notes (which is either current weight, what you want to lose / goals) underneath and will try to keep this up to date!
So far I have added we have lost 16lbs from those who have posted! If when you note your success, you put the total you have lost, that will make it easier!!
Taggie – you are the OP and as you have 18 months to go, I am with you on an 18 month journey – my goal is to have a BFP though but NEVER be above 15st again even if PG!

Very impressive !
I do love a list .
Thanks travellingwilbury I'm hoping this will help me stay on track this time!!!
I've been really good in that I have tracked everything honestly, even if I've gone over my daily points. I'm still well within my weeklies but then I haven't really had a drink....
I'm starting to feel better and falling asleep at night the minute I hit the pillow!! I didn't make it to body blitz on Saturday but I have been out walking the dogs and was at the gym last night / going tonight.
My boss had the Madhur Jaffrey beetroot curry yesterday and it was lovely... And no points! So I'll be making that this week!!!
My new favourite lunch is melon with Parma ham (I've had grapes and beetroot with it today!) with a drizzle of balsamic glaze!! It works really well as 4 points.
I need to eat regularly to stave off the manic fridge attacks so I've been having oatso simple for breakfast at half six, a ww biscuit bar with my morning cuppa at work, light lunch and muesli before I leave work en route to the gym.... I still had 6 of my daily points left last night so had a mince pie! I bank my activity points!
Wow, that's some list Puggy , I love the sound of beetroot curry yum!
I'm on MFP as well as doing WW travelling as digweedsow (very imaginative) and will add you.
oneslice Well done right back at ya
Did the first run of couch to 5k this morning, not too bad but not a breeze either I can't ever imagine being able to run 5k but will stick with it and see how it goes.
I'm puglady on ww as someone beat me to puggymum!!

Featured Volunteer: Skip Boomershine
A Passion for Making it Happen… Skip Boomershine
By: Jackie Robertson
Volunteers are what keep the Iron Dog in motion each year. One of the many dedicated volunteers who have helped with tireless intensity is Skip Boomershine. Much to his surprise and awe he was named Iron Dog Volunteer of the Year for the 2009 race but this title is not just handed out, it is earned. He has a passion for the race that you see in his eyes and feel in the air when he talks about the Iron Dog. There is a spirit to this race that once you have become involved you are hooked and Skip wanted to 'join that club'.
He came to the Director, Laura Bedard with a promise that he would prove to her his value as a volunteer rather than tell her what he could do. He had the intention to learn the psyche of the race from all aspects and in 2007 he came aboard as a volunteer. Prior to this he had been an Iron Dog addict and the launch of the website only fueled this addiction allowing him easy access to where the racers were and he would find himself checking every morning, during the day and before bed…as any good addict will.
That 2007 race year he was pulling onto Big Lake to setup the Iron Dog starting line and event areas as a new volunteer. He expected to be greeted with an army of other volunteers like himself ready to help, but to his surprise, there were only a few. As they worked the pipes into the frozen ice he was already thinking of ways to improve this setup. He is a natural at finding bottlenecks in a process and fixing it. He is a Project Manager by trade. When it came time to take the Starting line down, it was obvious that something had to be done about the chute, and there his planning began. It had taken 45 minutes per pole to get them out of the ice and by nightfall when they were using the headlights from the vehicles to see it was definitely time for serious help. His involvement grew that year as he became the assistant to Dennis Falldorf, Race Director.
The Iron Dog is not the first for Skip as far as volunteering is concerned; he is selfless in the efforts he puts out into the community. Standing at his side with all the heart of true support is his beautiful wife Cheryl. They are spending their 30th year of marriage together this year and their bond remains strong.
This support came multiplied for the 2008 race year when he decided to run it with his sons. She knew the expense was going to be incredible but now it was multiplied since her boys were joining. She thought they were crazy as she thought of the Iron Dog as long, cold and expensive. This was a sacrifice she gladly accepted and supported knowing how much it meant to Skip and her sons. She even donated her brand new sled for the adventure to retrieve it well…in Iron Dog condition once it was all over. Her advice for the wives and mothers of the Iron Doggers and volunteers is to get as involved as you can.
Skip admits there are a small percentage of people that are the nuts and bolts of any organization. They are the givers and the doers of our world. The lazy man never has time, yet a busy man finds the time…You just make it happen. His wife Cheryl advises it's all in your priorities. Skip reflected on his desire in life is about trying to make his life count, be something significant in the world…something positive. People like Skip are rare, certainly not a dime a dozen as he admits.
The 2007 year he assisted Dennis and the 2010 race year, well he will be replacing Dennis so that Dennis may now pursue his Iron Dog dreams as well. It was a deal they had made together and Dennis is doing all he can to show Skip everything about being the Race Director for the Iron Dog, certainly no easy task yet a perfect fit for Skip.
Skip doesn't find himself spinning his wheels to get things done, but when there is a lack of volunteers he ends up biting off more than anticipated. With more volunteers the leaps and bounds the race could make forward would be unfathomable. Just a few moments of someone's time could mean a step forward for the Iron Dog. The race depends upon the staff and mostly the volunteers to really pull it off. This is one organization that can use the support and truly appreciates it.
Skip has the true heart of an adventurer. When asked if the Iron Dog run as a Father with his sons was the trip of a lifetime together, he answered, "No, that it is 'a' trip of a lifetime as I am looking for the next one. Big adventures are your lives treasures not the material things that you can buy."
If you get a chance to chat with Skip, ask him about his 'gauntlets'…only after you have asked how you can help of course.

Discussion in 'Android Devices' started by Steven58, Aug 23, 2011.
Considering we are talking about ICE CREAM Sandwich, Vanilla is certainly the most appropriate.
I'm with snowquest and others - stock Android.
Of course it does. Have you seen the Picasa shots that were posted up a while back? They were great.
If every pic was blurry, we'd have a huge outcry from everyone who's tested this thing or given preliminary reviews.
The camera will be fine.
Unless you want to wave it all over the place while jumping up and down, shooting off a picture per second.
Edit: I forgot to add this in:
Edit 2: And this:
So, no rodeo shots, ey?
This observation isn't out of the blue, it's based on video reviews from testers who are snapping a lot of pics, and commenting that some are blurry.
I'm certain there will be a focus feature, but if it's not a default, or the focus can't be controlled, then some shots may be hit or miss. The devil is in the details, as they say.
I have to run but here are a couple
[Rumor] Another Photo Taken Using Galaxy Nexus and Two from Moto Droid RAZR
I am sorry that I didn't specify, but I assumed that the intended hyperbole was obvious. In no way, shape, or form do I really think the Verizon execs are watching this thread with sinister delight. I do think our respective opinions are more important to them, because they know that the early adopters can, and will, make or break the success of a device such as this. Hence their silence on a release date, or anything as they don't want to perpetuate rumors of hardware/software issues with this phone. They do want to sell a lot of them and the overpriced data plans that will go along with them.
I don't understand how Moto can have such great radios and such washed out color in their pictures. Maybe they don't think the camera is important?
Instead of getting upset at Verizon, we should probably wait until the phone is actually released somewhere. That way, we know ICS is ready, and the Nexus hardware is ready. Once that happens it will basically be an LTE issue or a Verizon issue, if it isn't released, yet.
Of course if you're pointing the camera here and there rapidly firing off shots in low light conditions...yes, it will be blurry...but then again so would a dSLR in those conditions. Focus isn't a feature on a camera...it's essential to a camera's operation. Any camera used indoors will require a steady hand to produce blur free shots...this is even true of a dSLR with a wide open aperture and high ISO.
Gotta remember, the early pics were taken from test phones. May not be seeing the final product. I expect greatness.
Motorola's history has been about communications, not cameras. If Canon came out with a phone, I would expect it to have a fantastic camera, but so-so radios, because they've no experience in that field.
Look fine to me but I'm not a photographer I have taken a total of 5 pics on my cell phone in 2 years. Just don't use it.
As long as a pic is focused they all look "good" to me. But thats just me
Didn't they focus it once in the announcement video by pressing the screen? I'll have to go back and look.
More trying to be optimistic here.....I am 2 classes away from my Industrial Engineering degree and one thing that I have learned is that sitting on inventory costs money. I just can't see Verizon getting these phones in their warehouses this week and then sitting on them for too long unless there is a big problem. I am by no means any kind of expert but has anyone else thought about that aspect? People keep saying they want to profit more on the extra software installed on the RAZR but they also have to take into account the holding costs of the Nexus phones just sitting in their warehouses.
About the camera, the zero shutter lag is one big reason I want this phone. I hope it turns out to be a great camera but if not it has to better than any Motorola product... My Droid X has the absolute worst camera that I have ever had in a cell phone. It is so freaking slow
Your turn CK. (Steven watches and get's his night stick ready.)
Edit: I knew it!
Pretty simple...Moto is a communications company. Therefore the cellular radio will excell in their products. Samsung is an electronics company who makes a lot of cameras and televisions...so they know a thing or two about camera sensors and color reproduction.
It would be funny if camera companies tried to integrate a cell phone in their product.
Well, at least their priority's are in the correct order. Its a phone first, camera second.
How is this accurate? There are 5,280 feet in a mile, and 26.2 miles in a marathon...
Yep, and will either seal or kill the deal for me. I'm tired of snapping blurry pics with my poor old OG. Been thinking about defecting to RAZR (probably not REZOUND due to potential battery issues) and this plus the SD card issue is making me want to defect.
I expect mediocrity with the camera aspect, as it is not being marketed that way. I think they expected the Nexus crowd to be much more interested in the other specs, and they're probably right.
Well I'm awesome at making pasta sauce but I suck at cooking chicken. If I serve my wife an undercooked pink chicken with great sauce on top, I doubt she'll want it regardless.
lol. Can't sneak anything by you, huh?
Yes, I suppose you're right. And that's part of the reason I know I won't be disappointed with the camera or screen in the SGN.
Not much of an argument from me, just wanted to give you some insight as to where the sentiment was coming from.
But as I alluded to before, the details are what makes a poor to mediocre to great camera. Focus is essential, but if the autofocus performance is subpar, then the camera will also be subpar.
I don't think that is the case, but I will wait to make my own determination when I have this phone in my hands. I expect a great camera, great radios, great GPS performance, and great hardware. Anything less then I'll return and wait for the next device.
He always stops after 4.966 miles?

Do not do anything while it's syncing. Once it's done go to the doc tab and the covers should be fixed now. It may take doing this twice to fix them all.
Thanks for the tip. I tried it just now (1am Pacific time) and it mostly worked. The first two times I tried it didn't help. The third time, instead of hitting home after clearing the data I shut the Fire down. When I restarted, it showed covers for all books everywhere, except for one on the carousel. What's weird is that was one of the books that was working before. Now it doesn't even have the generic cover with text; it just shows a gray rectangle. If I add it to my favorites the cover shows fine there, but still not on the carousel. Your trick for fixing that doesn't seem to help. I wouldn't be surprised if it fixed itself in the near future.
Sigh, what a buggy release. A lot of people seem to be having trouble with covers and regardless of what support told mkgtu, there's no way one-way syncing is intentional.

This past Sunday, European Design Since 1985: Shaping the New Century was on view for the last time before the museum shifts gears over to its next special exhibition, Sacred Spain: Art and Belief in the Spanish World. EuroDesign is and was a magnificent achievement and a huge thanks goes out to everyone who made the show possible. Good work.
Even though the show has only been over for a few days now, I thought it would be interesting and a little fun to recap some of the online stuff that happened around European Design.
As for interesting, turns out the European Design exhibition website was relatively successful in terms of traffic and Google PageRank. According to Google Analytics, through the run of the show, the site welcomed nearly 30k unique vistors and beat out our last two special exhibitions, Power and Glory and To Live Forever over similar time periods. For a young site with a short span of marketing relevance, European Design was able to muster a PR of 5 before the show ended. This is a little hard to believe but we also managed to keep the site's bounce rate below 20%. That's awesome. Good work.
As for fun, who remembers the European Design Facebook caption contest? I know I completely forgot about it until my trusted Facebook associate, Emily, reminded me about all the good ideas she's had and how that was one of them. Below is a notable example.
As for more fun, we also started up a Flickr group that fed into the EuroDesign exhibition site. Not only did group members get to see their designs streaming through our site but we also gave away a few tickets and some cool prizes like exhibition catalogs and Design Center gift certificates. Check out the Flickr group.
While I'm a little sad to see European Design leave, I'm super excited about what new interesting and fun online stuff is going to show up for Sacred Spain. While I'm not going to make any promises, expect some Facebook activity. And since it's all the rage, my guess is that Twitter may make an appearance. As always, if you've got any ideas or suggestions, let me get 'em in the comments.

Scott Weiland's "The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year" Album Review
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving (that came way too fast!) and if you and your family like to be entertained by holiday music while you're gathered around a feast, try something new this year. Stone Temple Pilot's front man Scott Weiland recently released his very own Christmas album The Most Wonderful Time of the Year, via Soft Drive Records, which is full of classic Christmas tunes with Weiland's own personal twist.
The 10-track record includes the most classic holiday songs, minus those for the kids such as "Jingle Bells" and "The 12 Days of Christmas." The older, more mature adult crowd would be an appropriate group for the album, as Weiland's voice slightly mirrors the late Frank Sinatra- smooth, deep, melodic and pure. He is backed by two vocalists, as well as a vibrant arrangement of orchestrated instruments that bring the songs to life: piano, violins, trumpets, drums, flutes, saxophones, steel drums, cello's, trombones, violas and guitars.
A few of the songs, mostly in the beginning of the album, stay true to their original roots, and Weiland
somewhat mimics the voices of the original artists, such as in the title song, "The Christmas Song," "I'll Be Home for Christmas," White Christmas" and "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas." They're the old songs you remember, only incorporated with a bit more pizazz and filling.
However, the remaining songs stray (too much) from their originality- it's the same lyrics, only with juxtaposed music, tempo and overall feeling, that was at times a bit cheesy and overdone, and to the point of where it started to sound like mall or elevator music. "Silent Night" is known as a soft, slow, mellow song, but Weiland turns it into a fast and catchy tune with a beachy, Jamaican sound, which is kind of confusing. The same holds true for "What Child is This" and "Oh, Holy Night," which would be suitable if you were spending Christmas in the caribbean, as steel drums are heard in the background. I appreciate Weiland's need for difference and uniqueness, but it was just a bit too well done for my taste. When you listen to Christmas music you're filled with a sense of warm, full and calm holiday spirit. With Weiland's versions it's more happy and upbeat and feels nothing like Christmas.
Weiland also included a song of his own, titled "Happy Christmas and Many More," whose music reminded me of the video game Katamari.
If the album were divided into two parts, perhaps an original half and a re-done half it would make more sense, but the fact that all 10 songs are jumbled together leaves me a little puzzled. However, Weiland is very talented and fronts a very successful rock band, and I give him props for coming up with his own Christmas album. It is enjoyable, just not entirely cohesive.
The Most Wonderful Time of the Year would be a good conversation piece for you and your family's Thanksgiving this year, so if you're a fan, get a copy and discuss the album with your loved ones and trade stories of why you're thankful this year.
I give this album three guitars!

Have you ever wondered why coins have a musty, metallic odor after they have been in your hands awhile? You may have assumed that it was the coins being dirty, but in reality it isn't the coins at all – it's you. That's right. That smell is your own body odor. According to a recent study, that metallic odor comes from a breakdown of oils in your skin after your touch coins and not from the coins themselves.
In the experiment for the study, researchers took gas samples from the subjects' skins when people reported smelling the metallic odor after touching iron. The smell was then traced to 1-octen-2-one which is an organic molecule formed when certain oils in skin decompose. The researchers believe that when a person touches an object made of iron, the perspiration from their skin causes the iron atoms to gain two electrons. These iron atoms then react with oil in skin forming 1-octen-2-one.

GUANTANAMO BAY U.S. NAVAL BASE, Cuba, April 27 (Reuters) - An al Qaeda suspect told a U.S. military tribunal on Thursday that he was proud of fighting against the United States and willing to spend the rest of his life in prison as a "matter of honor."
"I came here to tell you I did what I did and I'm willing to pay the price," said Ghassan Abdullah al Sharbi, 31, a U.S.-educated Saudi who allegedly met al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden at a training camp in Afghanistan months before the Sept. 11 attacks.
"Even if I spend hundreds of years in jail, that would be a matter of honor to me," he said.
Sporting long dark hair and a flowing beard, Sharbi appeared at a pretrial tribunal hearing near the U.S. prison camp at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, as one of 10 detainees who face life imprisonment if convicted of war crimes. About 490 detainees are held at Guantanamo.
The tribunal also held hearings this week for two alleged co-conspirators -- Algerian Sufyian Barhoumi and Saudi Jabran Said bin al Qahtani. The U.S. military says the three were part of an al Qaeda bomb-making cell.
"I fought the United States," Sharbi told the presiding officer, Navy Capt. Daniel O'Toole. "I'm going to make it short and easy for you guys: I'm proud of what I did."
Sharbi rejected the notion that he was "guilty" of wrongdoing and politely said he wanted to represent himself. He rejected his appointed military lawyer, Navy Lt. William Kuebler, and said he wanted neither a military replacement nor a civilian defender.
"It's the same circus, different clown," said Sharbi, a fluent English speaker who earned an electrical engineering degree at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in Arizona before leaving the United States for Afghanistan in 2000.
O'Toole tried to order Kuebler to remain Sharbi's lawyer. But Kuebler told the presiding officer that legal authorities in California had advised him it was unethical to represent an unwilling client.
O'Toole then cut short the proceedings and set a May 17 hearing to consider the ethics issue.
Qahtani's defense lawyer, Army Lt. Col. Bryan Broyles, whose client is boycotting the tribunals, said detainee remarks like Sharbi's were understandable under a tribunal system that rights advocates say has been stacked to deliver convictions.
"They're not making a mockery of the system, they're saying the system is a mockery of justice," Broyles told reporters.
The legality of the tribunals, which President George W. Bush created to try foreigners suspected of terrorism after the Sept. 11 attacks, has been challenged before the U.S. Supreme Court. A high court ruling is expected in June.
The chief prosecutor, Air Force Col. Moe Davis, said Sharbi, Qahtani, Barhoumi and others who face only conspiracy charges would have to begin the tribunal process anew if the Supreme Court ruled that conspiracy did not constitute a war crime.
Military documents allege that Sharbi was introduced to bin Laden in July 2001 at al Qaeda's al Farouq training camp in Afghanistan, where he underwent basic training, stood guard and kept watch for U.S. air strikes after the Sept. 11 attacks.
He was moved by former al Qaeda operations director Abu Zubaydah to a safe house in Faisalabad, Pakistan, for training in the construction of electronic detonators later used in car bomb attacks on U.S. forces in Afghanistan, the military says.
Sharbi, Barhoumi, Qahtani and Zubaydah were captured there together in March 2002, military documents say. SOURCE: Reuters

Kids vs PCS
How have your kids dealt with changing posts? What have you done to help them ease into adjustment?
Let them help with the sorting or packing. I made it a cool thing. I would see a map and I would point out where we were, and where we were going. Show them how we would have to take a plane over that big ocean. Our first PCS was from Missouri to Germany, so huge. My kids have really adjusted well.
That's awesome! I really like that idea for helping kids adjust (even parents, I'm sure!!)
Quoting ArmyChica:
Speaking as someone who went through that and will be having to do the other side, the biggest thing that I found helpful was getting a chance to see the place before we moved. The first time I moved, I remember my parents taking me to thenew state before we moved there. I got to see all the places and see my new school, and it really helped me be moe comfortable with it. The other thing is being positive and telling your kids all the good things about moving to this new place. My parents were very positive each time, even when I'm sure they didn't want to move to that place. I adjusted really well every time, and even chose that life for myself!
everytime i see your s/n i have to say it aloud. It's fun to say. Does it mean anything? (if you don't mind me asking)
Quoting cocoroo:
My kids deal fine with moving. It isn't an issue for them.
It is one of my children's nickname.
Quoting Mrs.Brugger:
everytime i see your s/n i have to say it aloud. It's fun to say. Does it mean anything? (if you don't mind me asking)Quoting cocoroo:
My kids deal fine with moving. It isn't an issue for them.
My kids just deal with it. They have grown up doing it so it's not abnormal for them.
My oldest doesn't deal well with change at all. So we try to pick a p,ace that is either close to family, or a totally new experience that he will be excited about. It seems small, but it really helps. Also, letting him *think* he gets to decide on the new house we rent really helps. We treat every move like an adventure.
This is the first time we have moved with my DD. She is 4 and we have been in our new place 2 weeks. So far she is loving it, I am really relieved. I think once grandma and grandpa leave though (they came down to help us settle in and do a little touristing)...she is really going to miss them. We have been spoiled living so close up until now.

Originally we were not planning on making the 6hr. trek out to Arizona, but after getting some new upgrades for the #11 GReddy tC, we are anxious to have some more fun on the track. Since Round 1, we have lightened up the car a little with a carbon hood & hatch, added an APR aero splitter and wing, and got in our prototype OS Giken clutch, from Japan.
The upgrade clutch will allow us to "boost-up" on the stock (GReddy Turbocharged) 2AR engine. Driver Takeshi Aizawa can't wait to get the car on the track! Wish us luck for this week's race.

Pilot unions say they were outgunned by a cargo industry lobby that convinced the FAA to exclude air cargo operations from its new flightcrew member duty and rest requirements, a rule they vow to amend.
The Independent Pilots Association (IPA), representing 2,600 UPS pilots, filed a petition for review in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit on December 22, the day after the FAA announced completion of the rule. The court has issued a scheduling order requiring the IPA to file various documents, including a preliminary statement of issues it expects to raise in the case, by January 23. By February 6 the FAA must file an index of its regulatory docket and any other information the agency used in reaching its decision.
The IPA and the FedEx Master Executive Council (MEC) of the Air Line Pilots Association (ALPA), which represents FedEx Express pilots, contend that the FAA was swayed by more than science in issuing a "science-based" pilot fatigue rule without requiring cargo carriers to participate. "Congress directed the FAA to create new science-based flight and duty rules to establish one level of aviation safety to protect the public," said Capt. Robert Travis, IPA president. "[U]nder intense pressure from the cargo industry lobby, the FAA has failed to carry out this basic congressional mandate."
The FedEx MEC in a statement called the rule "a political failure," adding that "cargo carrier lobbyists were able to use a protracted backroom process to convince federal policymakers" to exclude cargo operations. ALPA welcomed the rule, but also expressed disappointment over the exclusion of cargo operations.
"To be clear, ALPA was pitted against a very strong cargo lobbying group that was able to convince the [Obama] Administration that the cargo carriers could not afford and would go out of business if included in the new science-based rule, despite being the most profitable sector of the airline industry," the association said.
The FAA explained in the final rule that it excluded all-cargo operations "because their compliance costs significantly exceed the quantified societal benefits." In a footnote, the agency said the projected cost of compliance for cargo operations amounts to $306 million, while the benefit of avoiding one fatal all-cargo accident ranges from $20 million to $32 million depending on the number of crewmembers on board the aircraft.
The IPA argues that "simply no indication" exists of how the agency derived the projected cost, and it posits that cargo carriers supplied the cost information after the comment period ended for the earlier notice of proposed rulemaking.

Acupuncture is the ancient Asian art of inserting and manipulating thin needles into prescribed focal points of the body in order to enhance health or treat a variety of illnesses and symptoms. Acupuncture has been shown to improve vasomotor symptoms such as hot flashes that can occur with natural or breast cancer treatment induced menopause. Chemotherapy can produce profound nausea and vomiting and fatigue, and acupuncture has been found to be helpful. In breast cancer patients getting an aromatase inhibitor as part of their treatment, acupuncture can relieve the symptoms of bone and joint discomfort. There is even a suggested benefit with acupuncture to women who suffer from post-surgical lymphedema. Acupuncture is used to treat a whole catalogue of other maladies, most notably chronic pain.

Another weekend, another Cal game. We have no byes this year, so hope you get used to my weekly vomit of text.
ASU Sun Devils in Berkeley this week.. and while its hard to say any game in NCAA is a "must-win" this game is it for Cal. At 1-3 and the Cal faithful in an uproar, a loss today may cost Tedford the team and maybe his job. We'll need to win 5 of our next 8 just to be bowl eligible, and with UCLA and Oregon State looking much improved and a home game against Oregon and stanfurd still to come, not to mention our road woes, we really need this game to have a shot. Don't think its fair to ask Cal to be realistically any better than 2-2 at this point with road losses @Ohio State and @USC, but as is the case with fickle football fans, people are calling for heads.
I've never been one to jump on the Fire Tedford bandwagon... Having lived through a 1-10 season, 50 point drubbings and horrible coaches in the forms of Keith Gilbertson and Tom Holmoe, Tedford has been a godsend to Cal. The redone memorial stadium might as well be called "Tedford Stadium", as his efforts and drive were really what brought a new stadium. However, it really seems like the league has passed Tedford. We'll never be USC or Oregon... but it seems like the in old pac-10 every dog had its day and teams like OSU, heck even Washington State have made the Rose Bowl in the last 20 years while Cal has been consistently mediocre to above average during that span, and I think that is even catching up to this Golden Bear sunshine pumper.
Anyways.. game is at 1pm pacific.. about to head out to Berkeley right now.. hopefully we pull a win off. This should have been a gimme conference win, but with ASU D playing strong and our Offense anemic.. I'm not so sure anymore.
Petrino was a consultant for Cal this off season, if the job comes open I wouldn't be surprised if his name isn't on the short list. As it is, I'd rather not see any jobs open up as it hurts the Hogs.
Manziel better be tough, he's going to take some big hits this season if he keeps running like that.
Mizzou is losing to UCF, A&M is playing god-awful Arkansas close, and Kansas can't lose this week. Pretty good day so far!
Aggies are about to pull away.
Apparently Baylor and West Virginia are just playing offense today. 35-35 at the half.
Stele how was Miami?
Halftime score is Ags 27, Hogs 10.

Gallows humor is the best humor!
Seriously though, I wish the Hogs nothing but luck after today, and a great coach after this year.
We need all the help we can get.
It was fun while it lasted. Kansas is still not going to lose this week!
Any AD that stands by this staff is an absolute fool. I hope everyone in the football program is unemployed soon. None of them deserve to coach these players, or any players.
The Aggies will compete for an SEC title before the Hogs do. I hope our Board of Trustees wake up.
It is frustrating beyond description to watch a program you love so much go down the drain right before your eyes.
Apparently Baylor and West Virginia are just playing offense today. 35-35 at the half. :shock:
I want to see WVU v. either 'Bama or Oregon.
So after the WVU-Baylor 70-63 game today, I just want to know when ESPN is going to start ragging on the Big 12 for being terrible and not playing any defense and yadda yadda... you know, the way they did about the MAC after that Toledo-N. Illinois 63-60 game last year.
Cause I'd take those games any day over that 9-6 snoozefest we got in Alabama-LSU last year. Hell of a lot more fun to watch, and loads more exciting being 1 score apart and knowing that either team can score at any moment.
It's more fun, but defense wins championships. Alabama(or LSU) would shut down WV. Their wide outs would be mugged all game, and Geno would be pressured every down. He wouldn't have the time to make the plays. Look at the WV-LSU game last year. Meanwhile a slew of big tough backs pound the ball for an entire game wearing down what little defense WV has. An Oregon-WV matchup might see both teams scoring 70+.
I'll add that Texas might be playing some D this season.
Aggie fans on ESPN are acting like they just won the Super Bowl.
Stele how was Miami?
I posted a bit last page:
FIU was fast. Teddy made his first two INTs of the season, although the 2nd was on defensive PI not called. Still a sloppy win, but a win.
Louisville had More fans than FIU. :D
What else to say...
FIU stadium seats 25k. We took up almost the whole side section with red. Attendance on the box score lists 12,318. If I had to wager, I'd say 7-8k of that was Louisville. Their student section was the only one on that half of the stadium that was anything but empty. I'm sure there were some people up in the luxury boxes, since that's the only place that serves alcohol.
Teddy looked human, at a mere 55% with 2 TDs and 2 INTs. Coming down a bit from that 82% and 0 INTs he had through 3 games so far. Like I said, some of it was FIU's speed. They've got those leftover Florida natives that aren't top tier but are still fast.
Can't really blame anything on the rain. It poured all day, so the field was wet, but the rain stopped about 10 min before kickoff, and only lightly drizzled in the 2nd quarter. So the balls weren't wet. Maybe the field still was, but that's no excuse for not getting more separation.
Defensively was the most disappointing though. We allowed our first 100-yd rusher of the year, and I want to say of the last 10 games or something like that. We really had been keeping the opponents in check. Some of it was them running a bit of no huddle, which we have seen a lot of and expect to see more tonight at Southern Miss. But other stuff was just us missing tackles. We did come up with an amazing stop on 4th and 1 at about the 10 yard line early in the 4th.
Defensive Line Coach said this week if he had to grade the season it'd be a C against the run and a D for pass rushing. Our coaches expect better, and our talent level should be there, we are just not executing.
But so far, for all the mistakes we've made, we're still 4-0. If we can learn lessons and improve while still winning games, I'll take it.
Tonight, a bit of old rivalry renewed with So. Miss. The two of us won 7 of 10 C-USA Football Championships from 96-05. But we've won the last 5 meetings, including a couple since we joined the Big East, and Charlie's first bowl win from the 2010 season.
Now if I can just find a feed of the stupid CBS Sports Network...
That was the Aggies' first SEC victory, and our first victory against an SEC team in years. And first win over Arkansas since we started playing again three years ago. Now, was that the real Arkansas? Not even close, and true football people know that.
Poor Tennessee. They were driving to tie with 2 min left and fumbled. Looks like 51-44 Georgia will be the final.

Bah, it was only thanks to a ton of UGA turnovers that they were still in the game.
Hopefully the Dawgs got that crap out of their system for the Chicken game, though the Chickens are currently laying their own egg.
UK beating SC.
Towson beating LSU.
USM beating Louisville.
This is some strange first half scoring for the evening games.
USM has to have the worst field I have ever seen. A little rain and the thing is like a swamp. Louisville had a ball right through a WR hands caught for a pick-6. Ugh.
Just saw the Arkansas - A&M score. I was willing to cut the staff a lot of slack considering all of the problems the team and individuals have gone through in the past few months, but that's crossed even my invisible line. New coaches ASAP.
Bizarre scoring this weekend by top 25 matchups. 70-63? 51-44? Holy cow!
UK beating SC.
Towson beating LSU.
USM beating Louisville.
Exciting scores, but I'd be surprised if any of them (except perhaps Kentucky) hold.
Well don't forget the refs totally bailed out SC in the Vandy opener. If they get the chance they might do it again.
Nevermind. Looks like momentum is seriously swinging SC's way. Fast TD drive, followed by a quick stop, and now they have the ball again.
Holy crap. Louisville survived.
What a rain storm. What a messy game. But a win is a win and I'll take it.
Well this one hurt. At this point our season is lost unless we can miraculously pull out wins against Oregon, stanfurd and Washington. Barring some miracle 2nd half of the season, the question is if Coach Tedford is done at Cal. Not only is our offense terrible, but outside of the Ohio State game, it has shown almost no progress for the last 2 years. Our Defense plays the softest zone ever (bend then break), and if the quarterback has enough time to go through his progressions someone is undoubtedly always open. Down 13 points in the 4th quarter instead of goign for it on 4th down, we kick a FG and still need 2 scores to win.. not sure what kind of call that is.
Cal is probably in the bottom 3 or 4 of the pac-12. We're probably better than Colorado.. though we don't play them this year so we won't find out. We shoudl be better than WSU but we play them in Pullman, so that game is a tossup at best, and that is probably the only game I'd call a pick 'em at this point. There is a chance we dont' win another game this season.
Complete disaster.. way to bring in a new stadium Cal.
Unfortunately I'm not sure who we'd bring in. We're not the SEC.. we can't pay coaches $3MM-$4MM or whatever those guys get down there. Chatter from bitter alums suggests a return to college football by Pete Carroll but I'm not sure how we can pay that guy. The most prominent pro-coach with cal connections is Ron Rivera in Carolina, but I can't imagine he's going anywhere... looks like we're going to have to start over again... terrible.
What's going on with LSU coolbeans? Slow starts and games much closer then they should be two weeks in a row?
What's going on with LSU coolbeans? Slow starts and games much closer then they should be two weeks in a row?
And why the hell are they playing Towson? I think we should stop letting top 25 teams play so many FCS or cupcake teams.

"While in Botswana with Enterprise Officer Wilfred, we visited Ngoma Lodge. A new lodge, Ngoma is nestled into the landscape with spectacular views out over the plains and the Chobe River below. Using local woods and stones, the lodge has been built with beautiful detailing, and a nice incorporation of African design. As you enter the lodge, you walk into and through the reception area, coming out onto a large open area on the back, stretching across in wooden walkways. Tables are set underneath a Baobab tree, and a viewing platform offers you a closer look at animals coming through the area. Like Machenje Lodge that is currently under construction in Zambia, Ngoma Lodge is tied to the local community and people, with profits tying back into further land conservation and community enrichment. Offering beautiful views and a unique African experience, Ngoma Lodge is an eco-tourists dream."

Kamui Kobayashi and Sergio Perez target a return to the points for Sauber in Abu Dhabi
- Home

- Championships

- Live
Sauber pair Sergio Perez and Kamui Kobayashi say they are eager to return to the points in Abu Dhabi after failing to score for the second successive race in India.
After the disappointment of Korea, the team again suffered at the Buddh International Circuit with Kobayashi down in 14th spot and Perez retiring with damage sustained by a puncture with just a third of the race run.
With just three races to go as the team seeks to try and steal fifth in the standings from Mercedes, a solid run this weekend will be vital to its chances, with Perez also keen to score as he looks to end his time with the team on a high.
"Abu Dhabi is a very special place for me," he said. "It was there where I jumped into a Formula One car for the very first time. This was only two years ago, but it feels as if this test took place ages ago.
"Time goes by very quickly in Formula One. I had worked so hard to get into this cockpit and I remember very well all the special emotions attached to that moment. It had been a great race weekend back in 2010 anyway, because I had won the GP2 race on Saturday by a good margin of over 20 seconds.
"In 2012 the Grand Prix will be one of my last races for the team which gave me the chance to get into F1. I will give my utmost to get a very good result. I want to help the team to increase its championship position and for me personally I want to make sure I finish the season on a high."
Kobayashi is also eager to score although he said the fact that there is no GP2 race alongside F1 this weekend could have an impact in the action on track.
"I find the Grand Prix in Abu Dhabi very exciting because it's a twilight race, and the only one of the season," he said. "It's very special to start in daylight and then race in the dark. This creates a really unique atmosphere, which I like. For me Abu Dhabi is a special race anyway because it was only my second Grand Prix back in 2009, and actually a very good one as I was able to score points. So I will go there with positive feelings.
"Something we need to bear in mind is that there are no GP2 cars running this year between our sessions, which means the track can be quite dusty again each time our sessions start. Anyway that's an issue for everybody and doesn't affect our goal to score points."

text: Asia PacificNorth Korea fires missiles into the sea Two short-range projectiles fired a day after Seoul rejected proposals to cancel annual military drills with the US. 02 Jul 2014 01:33 GMT | Asia Pacific Kim Jong Un inspected test launches of missiles and rockets, the North's state media said [Reuters]North Korea has fired two short-range projectiles into waters off its east coast, a day after South Korea rejected its proposals to reduce tensions, including the cancellation of annual drills between Seoul and Washington. The projectiles, with a range of 180 kilometres (110 miles), were fired from the eastern coastal city of Wonsan and harmlessly landed in the sea on Wednesday morning, South Korean defence officials said requesting anonymity citing department rules. The officials gave no further details. The launches came a day before Chinese President Xi Jinping visits South Korea for a summit meeting with his South Korean counterpart Park Geun-hye. The firings were the third such reported launches since Thursday. South Korean officials said the North fired three short-range projectiles on Thursday and two short-range missiles on Sunday, both into waters off the east coast. The North's state media later said leader Kim Jong Un inspected test launches of missile and rockets in a likely reference to the launches. On Monday, North Korea's powerful National Defence Commission made a set of proposals it said would ease tension, calling for the cancellation of the drills because they are a rehearsal for invasion. It also suggested that the two Koreas halt hostile military acts against each other at border areas and stop psychological warfare. South Korea and the US have repeatedly denied that they seek to invade the North. South Korea on Tuesday dismissed as insincere the North Korean proposals, saying the North must first demonstrate that it is serious about nuclear disarmament if it truly wants peace. Animosity on the Korean Peninsula remains high following a slew of missile and rocket tests by North Korea. The two Koreas also earlier exchanged artillery fire along a disputed western sea boundary. The Korean Peninsula officially remains in a state of war because the 1950-53 Korean War ended with an armistice, not a peace treaty.Source: Agencies

Tie down your Halloween decorations, winds peak in early afternoon
Strong winds pushing through the region Saturday morning peaked by early afternoon as the weather brought in showers and, possibly, a few wet snow flakes, according to the National Weather Service in Buffalo.
A wind advisory that stretched to 6 p.m. featured winds averaging between 25 to 35 mph and gusts of up to 50 mph.
"Probably the strongest winds should be sometime around the early afternoon," Meteorologist Jim Mitchell said earlier in the day. "It looks like that's when the best ingredients will come together for the strongest winds."
The weather service advised people to tie down Halloween decorations and bring in loose items such as garbage cans and chairs.
A cold front moving into Western New York will keep the temperatures cool for the next few days before they are expected to gradually rise to the mid-50s by Halloween. The National Weather Service has forecast a chance of showers with a high near 57 on Thursday.
the strong winds were attributed to a storm system that passing to the north of Lake Huron in Canada, Mitchell said. The difference between pressure systems to the north and south fueled the winds, Mitchell said.
"There's a high to our southeast and the low is to our northwest," Mitchell said. "So we're basically like a sandwich in-between."
A few wet snowflakes were recorded Saturday morning at Buffalo Niagara International Airport, Mitchell said. It's 42 degrees," Mitchell said. "It's wet. It's just in the air."

An update on the Florida judge who is forcing Muslims to abide by sharia law, via Judge issues opinion in Islamic law case – St. Petersburg Times.
TAMPA — A Hillsborough judge under withering attack from conservatives for saying he will use Islamic law to decide if an arbitration award was correct apparently wants to explain himself.
Circuit Judge Richard Nielsen took the unusual step of issuing an opinion Tuesday even though the 2nd District Court of Appeal has stayed proceedings in a lawsuit against the Islamic Education Center of Tampa filed by four ousted trustees.
The opinion does not add anything that isn't already in the court file nor does it make any finding of law. But Nielsen appears to take great pains to explain the reasoning behind his controversial decision.
The issue involves whether an arbitration award in the case by an Islamic scholar, called an a'lim, was proper. The a'lim ruled Dec. 28 that the mosque's ex-trustees were ousted improperly, a decision that, if it sticks, might wrest control of $2.2 million from the center's current leaders.
The mosque got the money from the state after it used some of the mosque's land for a road project.
The judge noted in his opinion that he must hear further testimony to determine whether "Islamic dispute resolution procedures have been followed in this matter."
So a Florida judge is going to determine if sharia was properly followed in the matter? Is he qualified to determine if sharia has been followed? Is he using the Koran as his reference?
Nielsen's assistant said Tuesday the judge would not comment on pending litigation.
The judge's March 3 ruling saying he would use Islamic law, known as sharia, to decide the arbitration issue was quickly appealed by the mosque's attorney to the 2nd DCA. The mosque argues that state law should decide the issue and to inject religion into the case violates the U.S. Constitution.
The mosque trustees, i.e., Muslims do not want to be subject to Islamic sharia law. Will CAIR, the left/media cry Islamophobia, xenophobia, racism?
The mosque's attorney, Paul Thanasides, also wants to take deposition testimony from the a'lim, who lives in Texas.
In an irony probably not lost on some of the litigants, the a'lim's attorney has filed a motion with a Texas judge to prevent Thanasides from deposing the a'lim.
What does the attorney think bars testimony by an arbitrator?
Texas law.
Well, Texas has an Islamic sharia court but even the sharia judge arbitrator doesn't want to be held to his own sharia rulings and wants the full rights of the state.
Recall from the original post,
"The mosque believes wholeheartedly in the Koran and its teachings," Thanasides said Monday. "They certainly follow Islamic law in connection with their spiritual endeavors. But with respect to secular endeavors, they believe Florida law should apply in Florida courts."
So what exactly is a secular endeavor? They still believe "wholeheartedly in the Koran and its teachings." That doesn't bode well for infidels in Tampa, and they aren't commenting so it's not clear how much secular law they endorse. Will they become spokesmen for banning sharia law in Florida? Elsewhere? Would they be branded apostates for doing so and be targeted for their secular preference?
The four ex-trustees suing the center did not return calls for comment. And attorneys representing them declined comment.
More than a year ago we posted on a report by Muslims on judges in the U.S. creating a body of case law based on Islamic sharia law. The post didn't garner much attention, but suffice it to say, the issue is much bigger than what the media is telling you.

Dr. Gerhard Wimmer-Greinecker
The Great Debate has been a fundamental part of the EuroPCR program for the last few years. Six renowned panelists (3 interventional cardiologists and 3 cardiac surgeons) have discussed this year's topic: "Left main in 2011: CABG or PCI?"
The Debate started with an explanation of why surgeons consider that surgery is still the gold standard in left main stenosis. On the other hand cardiologists maintain that PCI of left main stenosis is evolving with respectable results. Based on this the SYNTAX-study has been discussed extensively and it was stated that it was, statistically, adequately powered to compare CABG and PCI in left main stenosis. SYNTAX reported that there have been more reinterventions with PCI and more strokes with CABG, but that the combined safety endpoint (death, MI, stroke) did not show a significant difference. A subgroup analysis, which is statistically not legitimate though, showed better results for PCI in patients with less complex lesions while in patients with a SYTAX Score above 32 CABG provided better outcomes. There was quite some debate on the 'magic' number of SYNTAX Score 32 concluding that the final decision has to be based on the individual circumstances. Since SYNTAX results do not provide enough information to make a final decision, two further trials (the EXCEL and the NOBLE trial) are on their way.
It was stated that in PCI of the left main, there is a volume/outcome relationship but the necessity of an in-house cardiac surgery unit as a back up for hospitals performing left main PCI was controversial. There has been considerable controversy regarding the patient's perspective. While cardiologists believed that patients would always vote for PCI, surgeons argued that if the patients are properly informed, many would accept the potential long-term benefits of surgery. There was heated debate on the value of the 2010 ESC/EACTS-Guidelines for revascularisation of left main stenosis. Surgeons insist that the guidelines should be followed in appropriate patients in contrast to the interventional cardiologists who believe that they are not applicable to every patient. Furthermore, they believe that the technology used is already outdated. There was however strong agreement on the importance of the role of multidisciplinary teams and that these should underpin cooperation between departments for cardiology and cardiac surgery. Not every case requires discussion if they are following the ESC/EACTS guidelines but rather those where the intended treatment shall not follow the guidelines.
The lively debate at this session was a great success, highlighting the necessity of a collaborative approach between interventional cardiologists and cardiac surgeons. All agreed that an unbiased view is in the best interest of our patients.

Retail reform in India may have been put on the backburner but
Woolworths says Ramnik Narsey, who was sent to India in May to scout for opportunities ahead of an anticipated easing relaxation of foreign direct investment bans, will be staying on for an indefinite period.
Late last month the Indian government announced long-awaited plans to allow multi-brand retailers such as supermarkets and department stores to invest directly in the retail sector through partnerships with local operators.
The new rules were aimed at increasing competition, improving efficiency – particularly in the fresh-food supply chain – and reducing double-digit inflation.
However, less then two weeks after the historic decision, a tide of dissent from small retailers, unions and opposition and coalition political parties forced the government to suspend its plans until it can reach consensus with stakeholders.
International retailers, many of whom were poised to substantially lift their level of investment in India, have kept out of the ensuing debate for fear of fuelling claims of interfering in the country's affairs.
However, the government's volte-face has come as a blow to foreign retailers such as WalMart, Carrefour, Tesco and Woolworths who have already made significant investments to gain a foothold in the market and establish relationships with local players in the event foreign direct investment laws are relaxed.
Woolworths is hopeful that existing rules banning foreign direct investment in retail by multi-brand retailers will eventually be relaxed. It has no plans to cut short Mr Narsey's engagement.
"Our plans have always been predominantly longer-term ones," a Woolworths spokeswoman said yesterday.
The opposition Samajwadi Party says allowing large international "multibrand" retailers to enter the retail market would "destroy" the agriculture industry, suppliers and small retailers, who control more than 90 per cent of the market.
However, on Monday, farmers represented by the Consortium of Indian Farmers Association met Prime Minister
The farmers claimed the system was exploitative and the dalals, adithiyas and agents through which they sold their product charged exorbitant fees and commissions, manipulated prices and evaded tax.
Foreign direct investment "in retail will be helpful to farmers, as it will establish producer groups and arrange for forward-backward linkage between the farmers and retailers," CIFA's president, Satanam Singh Behru, said in a report in the Economic Times of India.
Woolworths established an alliance with Tata Group's Infiniti Retail in 2005 and is providing buying, wholesale, supply chain and consulting services to Infiniti's Croma consumer electronics stores.
Earlier this year, it established Woolworths India (Private) and sent Mr Narsey, the former head of petrol, to Mumbai to identity opportunities outside consumer electronics.
Broker RBS believes Woolworths may be keen to strengthen its relationship with Tata by converting their consumer electronics alliance into an equity joint venture.
"The largest opportunity for Woolworths is arguably in the grocery segment, [but] other multinational retailers [WalMart, Tesco and Carrefour] are already well progressed with partnership agreements in place," RBS said.

VERA CASEY CENTER OPEN HOUSE Vera Casey Collaborative Supports Berkeley Pregnant & Parenting Teens
Berkeley, California (Wednesday, October 25, 2006) - The City of Berkeley invites the community to The Vera Casey Center Open House, to celebrate our newly-renovated building at 2246 Martin Luther King, Jr. Way, on Thursday, October 26, 2006 from 4-6 pm. For the past 34 years, the Vera Casey Center has provided childcare and other support services to teen parents in the Berkeley Unified School District (BUSD) so that they can continue their education. The Vera Casey Program is a collaborative effort between the City of Berkeley Public Health Division, the Berkeley/Albany YMCA Early Childhood Services, and the BUSD. This Collaborative is designed to provide comprehensive and holistic service and support to the entire family. The students receive specialized case management and coaching from Public Health Division staff; their babies receive child care and specialized developmental services provided by Berkeley/Albany YMCA Early Childhood Services staff; and, BUSD provides administrative support and acts as the fiscal agent.
Just a few years ago, the Vera Casey Program was in jeopardy of being closed because of a shortfall in the BUSD budget. Strong community support saved the program...the Vera Casey Program now serves 29 teen parents in the BUSD. This is not due to an increasing teen birth rate, as Berkeley continues to have the lowest teen birth rate of any health jurisdiction in California, but rather due to outreach and identification of existing teen parents, reenrolling student parents who had dropped out of school, and expanding services to teen fathers. The Center also serves low-income families enrolled in the YMCA Early Head Start Program.
As one teen mother served by the Vera Casey Program stated, "The Vera Casey staff was there for me when no one else was. They helped me find resources so I could graduate and live on my own." Please come celebrate Berkeley's commitment to supporting our young families, and the dedicated people who serve them at the Vera Casey Open House on Thursday, October 26th from 4:00 p.m.- 6:00 p.m.
For more information and press packet, please contact Solange Gould, Student Services Coordinator,Vera Casey Collaborative at (510) 644-6854 Extension 2.

There are a number of questions I raise in the thread that no one has really answered. I know you're looking to avoid the trigger situation, so let's leave that out for now, but: How would you return any generated keys for a statement like this: CREATE TABLE mytable (a serial, b text); INSERT INTO mytable (b) SELECT (b) FROM mytable; with multiple rows currval is useless, it can even be useless in the one row situation (for a pretty contrived case) CREATE SEQUENCE myseq; CREATE TABLE mytable (a int default nextval('myseq'), b int default nextval('myseq'), c text); INSERT INTO mytable (c) VALUES ('hi'); When writing a library (as opposed to an application) you need to be prepared to handle all sorts of bizarre situations. At the moment I just don't think it's possible to make this method work for anything other than a specific subset of situations. Kris Jurka
