I have just come from our therapist's office and am feeling much calmer. You read that right: Dr. Joan is in therapy.
It all started when my husband and I began struggling, badly, with one of our kids who was displaying signs of Attention Deficit Disorder: lack of focus at school, outbursts at home, blaming others for his problems, lying about homework. My husband and I knew that this was an ongoing problem, but it all came to a head as our 10 year-old child entered a grade at school where everything gets moved up a notch and he began to struggle. Being a psychologist, you'd think I would have gotten everything under control immediately, right?
What I got instead was pain in my neck (literally), grinding teeth at night, feelings of hopelessness, and fighting with my mild-mannered husband. One of my best friends gave me sage advice on the phone the other day: "Maybe it's time to cry uncle and get some help." After 3 sessions as a couple with a licensed therapist, an evaluation for ADD by a trained professional for our child, following the Total Focus techniques from Dr. Bob Myers (who happens to be Empowering Parents' own ADD/ADHD specialist), a good massage therapist and a mouth guard for my teeth, I feel like we are on our way.
Do I have all the answers yet No. Do we know what is going to happen next week with our wonderful, creative, sometimes annoying child. Absolutely not. Have I stopped grinding my teeth Almost. The point is, my family is coming out of a crisis with a child whom we love, but don't always know how to handle.
My guess is that everyone reading this has had — or will have — a similar experience at some point as a parent. The whole point of baring my soul here is to let you know that you are not alone. Every day, thousands of parents struggle to just make it through the day with their kids and this is probably the most difficult thing you will go through. But I will share some other news with you: having a plan has made all the difference in the world to my own mental health, my marriage, and my teeth. We still don't know exactly what we're going to do with my son (Do we try medication or do we continue on with our cognitive-behavioral strategies and see how they go) but at least now we know what our options are.
If you are struggling with your child, I strongly recommend that you develop a plan today. This can be as simple as calling your pediatrician and making an appointment to meet with him or her to talk about what issues your family is facing. Start there, and discover what is available to you and your child. You will be amazed at how much lighter you feel by simply unloading your sadness, anger, frustration and hopelessness. If I can do this, trust me, you can too. There is nothing more humbling than being a psychologist and realizing that you don't have ANY of the answers to help your child. And there is nothing more empowering than asking for help and realizing that you are not alone.
Life is too short and children are too precious of a commodity to not get them the help they need. There is no reason to suffer in silence any longer. Pick up your phone today and discover the world of help that is waiting for you.

After surviving a crucial confidence vote, Greece's struggling prime minister prepared Wednesday for his next political battle - getting a new austerity package through parliament to avoid a default on the national debt.
Greece's international creditors demand that George Papandreou get approval for euro28 billion ($40.24 billion) in budget cuts and new taxes and a euro50 billion privatization drive by the end of the month before handing over euro12 billion in bailout funds to save the country from bankruptcy in mid-July.
A default could drag down Greek and European banks and shake the finances of other weak eurozone countries such as Portugal, Ireland and Spain.
All 155 lawmakers from Papandreou's Socialist party voted to back their leader in the 300-seat parliament late Wednesday, eliminating the chance of early elections and shoring up confidence in markets.
After the vote, the euro remained buoyed, the Athens stock index rose 1.5 percent and the Greek bond yields dropped for a second day running, a sign investor confidence is improving slightly.
The vote offered some encouragement for the embattled prime minister, who has had to contend with strikes, riots and dissent within his own party because of the deeply unpopular measures.
But Papandreou's struggles are far from over. He still needs to convince several of his own deputies to support the austerity measures which they have publicly criticized. At least one deputy said he would not back them.
Alexandros Athanasiades told a private Greek television channel Wednesday that he would vote down the measures over objections to selling off state assets.
Papandreou is due to meet with lawmakers from his party later Wednesday to begin shoring up support for the measures slated for a Jun. 28 parliamentary vote.
Greece is being kept financially afloat by a euro110 billion ($157 billion) package of bailout loans granted by other eurozone countries and the International Monetary Fund last year, and has implemented strict austerity measures in return, cutting public sector salaries and pensions, increasing taxes and overhauling its welfare system.
But the country has struggled to meet it targets, missing many, and is now in negotiations for a second bailout, which Papandreou has said will be roughly the same size as the first.
Meanwhile, officials from the IMF, European Commission and European Central Bank who have been overseeing Greece's reforms are in Athens to discuss the new austerity measures.
Nicola Mai with JP Morgan Chase bank said Papandreou will likely succeed in passing the austerity package, but sees greater risk to whether he can successfully implement it over time.
Mai said strong public opposition and weakness in the economy will make it difficult for Papandreou to push through necessary structural reforms, meet fiscal targets and sell state assets.
"We don't have much confidence that Greece will meet its targets, making a formal extension of debt maturities our central scenario for next year," said Mai.
"Still, it is possible that policymakers will once again choose the path of least resistance, and continue to fund Greece, even in the face of a disappointing adjustment."

"Cardiology Department - £1M could not buy..."
About: Royal Sussex County Hospital / Cardiology Royal Sussex County Hospital Cardiology BN2 5BE
Posted via NHS Choices
I recently had the benefit of a (S-ICD) implant (heart defibrillator) by RSCH and cannot compliment the team enough for my amazing treatment. Throughout the entire process from initial referral and consultation to my part-day admission for the procedure, I was treated with utmost respect and attention. I formed the impression that the process seemed very efficient and all staff highly professional and motivated. I was kept "entertained" during the "operation " and felt entirely relaxed and safe until discharged later the same day.
Response from Royal Sussex County Hospital 14 months ago
Dear Mark
Thank you very much for your kind comments expressing your gratitude.
I have passed on your message to the Cardiology Department, it really is encouraging for our staff when they receive thanks from patients and relatives for the care they have provided, and it is always very much appreciated.
Thank you again for taking the time to contact us.

As Brian Button pointed out earlier, I am keyboard junkie. I found myself today needing to scroll through my console window after running some unit tests that had failed. Now my first thought would be page up / page down... nope didn't work. Confused, I started google'n around to find the answer. I was not successful in finding an answer so I walked over to Peter's office and begged for help (google really likes Peter). After two tries the answer appeared.
<Alt> <Space> <e> <l>. Now what this does is take you to the system menu then to edit and scroll (not that I think that scrolling has anything to do with edit). Works like a charm. To get back to regular editing use the <Esc> button.
Now why I am on the topic, what I really want is a keyboard with a little pointing device in the middle like a laptop... anyone know if this exists?

Johannesburg - The World Bank has urged South Africa to adopt fundamental structural reforms in the economy to kick-start growth.
Catriona Purfield of the World Bank told Parliament yesterday that the projected growth of 0.8 percent this year could be avoided if the country undertook radical economic reforms.
Read: Drought 'could push SA into recession'
Purfield warned that unless something was done, the projected growth could increase poverty levels from 36 percent in 2016 to 37 percent in 2017.
She said it was still possible for the country to get out of the woods and reach the same levels that China reached a few years ago when it had embarked on serious reforms that pushed its growth to more than 7.2 percent a few years ago in spite of the other challenges it faced.
Purfield said among the reforms was a need to address infrastructure gaps and to improve education and skills levels as the country had one of the lowest pass rates in the region.
"Another reform is developing trade within Africa, it is very important for employment," she said.
The World Bank had to revise South Africa's growth down to 0.8 percent this year and 1.1 percent next year because of poor economic performance.
Purfield said South Africa was facing serious headwinds and it had to weather the storm.
She said South Africa had to provide quality education to be able to produce skilled individuals, adding that the tightening of competition laws would increase competition in different sectors of the economy.
Reforms in the economy and policy certainty would propel South Africa to growth, she said. "The world economy remained gloomy and South Africa would have to take these serious measures to get out of the woods."

This invention relates to a computer system that aids in the behavior modification of computer users who unknowingly and innocently spread computer viruses, specifically by teaching computer users to avoid computer viruses with the use of mock computer viruses and feedback measurements.
The Battle Against Computer Viruses:
Computer viruses pose significant threats to computer systems. Viruses cause loss of data, destroy computer hardware, create negative impacts to computer networks and systems, and disrupt business, government, and personal affairs. In the battle against computer viruses, an entire industry was created to develop and sell "anti-virus" software to detect, remove, and insulate computers from viruses. Numerous patents have been granted to achieve these same goals. Examples of corporations within the anti-virus industry are Symantec and Network Associates. Currently, the control of viruses is dependent upon companies such as these to identify characteristics of viruses, write anti-virus software to detect viruses when encountered, and insulate computers from viruses. However, viruses are created faster than anti-virus software, and anti-virus software cannot always prevent outbreaks of virus infections. It is desirable to avoid the negative impacts of virus infections without reliance on software that needs to continually adapt to detect new specific viruses.
What Are Computer Viruses?
A computer virus is a program that invades computer host systems. Once inside a host system, the virus may replicate and create copies of itself. The virus may also cause damage to the host system. Viral programs can damage host systems by using the host file system to overwrite data in host systems, or over-write data stored in networks attached to host systems, or create numerous other disruptions or damage. In addition to damaging the host system, the virus may perpetuate itself by transmitting replicated copies to other computer systems. Most computer viruses use e-mail systems to transmit the replicated copies to other computer systems. By transmitting replicated copies of itself to other computer systems, the virus invades new host systems and continues the life-cycle of viral replication, host system damage, and transmission of duplicate virus programs.
How Computer Users Spread Viruses:
E-mail systems alone cannot activate viral programs within host systems. Viral programs require activation by computer users, and therefore viral programs are sent as file attachments to e-mail messages. The creators of the viral programs rely on computer users to open the infected file attachments. The viral programs activate when users open infected attached files. The term "open" means the user starts the program in the attachment or starts a program associated with the attachment. In Microsoft Windows and NT operating systems, data files are named in a two part format of the form xxxxxxxx.yyy, where the "." separates the user given name, "xxxxxxxx", from the extension, "yyy". The operating system uses the extension, "yyy", to select how the data file is to be treated when opened. For example if the extension is "exe", then the operating system treats the data file as an executable program and passes control to it when opened. Or, if the extension is "doc", the operating system associates the document with the Microsoft Word program, loads the Microsoft Word program, and passes control to the Microsoft Word program with the data file as an input file.
What Are Viral Infected E-Mail Attachments?
Viral infected e-mail attachments are of two types: 1) programs that execute when opened or 2) "macros" that execute when data files are opened as documents in other programs such as Microsoft Word. A macro is a program that is written in a language specific to another program such as Microsoft Word. Macros are used to automate sets of "user actions". Examples of macro "user actions" are the ability to open and write data files, and to send e-mail messages with attachments to recipients in the users' e-mail directories. Viral macros may use the previously described user actions and other functions to send replicated copies of itself as attachments to other e-mail users. The infected attachments may cause damage to data in the host system or to data in a network that is attached to the host system.
Life-Cycle of Computer Viruses:
The key to life or the goal of viruses is to replicate and transmit copies of itself to other computer systems. There are viral programs that can access the computer users' e-mail directory and the computer users' e-mail folders. This access allows the virus to send additional replicated viral attachments to associates of the user. The viral e-mail messages appear to originate from someone the recipient knows and trusts, when in fact the virus sends the e-mail message itself. The unsuspecting recipient opens the infected files due to the mistaken belief that the file is virus-free merely because the e-mail was sent from a familiar e-mail address. The opened and activated virus file repeats its cycle, and the virus succeeds in its continuous spread to other computer systems.
What Is Being Done?
Anti-virus companies such as Symantec and Network Associates attempt to stop viruses with the detection, removal, and insulation of computer viruses. Additionally, software creators of e-mail systems attempt to curb the spread of viruses by building features into e-mail programs that attempt to prevent the opening of viral attachments. For example, Microsoft Corporation added capabilities to recent releases of Outlook and Exchange e-mail programs that makes opening attachments with executable programs a two-step process. In the Microsoft Outlook e-mail program, an attachment to an e-mail appears as an icon in the body of the e-mail. The file name appears as text in the icon. The user "opens" the attachment by double clicking on the icon. The first step consists of a warning message that is displayed when the icon is double-clicked. The user must perform a second action to actually open the file. Consistent with this, recent releases of Microsoft Word and Excel have a similar two-step document opening process if there is a macro in the document. First the user is warned that there is a macro in the document. The second step requires the user to choose to not open the document, disable the macro and open the document, or open the document with an active macro. In spite of these virus avoidance measures, computer users continue to open attachments with viruses, which in turn harms their systems, and sends replicated viral copies to other unsuspecting computer systems. An article written by David L. Wilson and published in the Dec. 4, 1999 edition of the San Jose Mercury News is included as background information on how computer viruses damage, replicate and spread.
Nearly all computer viruses require an action by a computer user to infect and spread. The key is to educate users not to open e-mail attachments that might carry computer viruses. The key is behavior modification, as education is not sufficient. Effective behavior modification must have a means to reinforce the change and measure the change in user behavior. The invention sends an e-mail with an attachment to e-mail users and creates a list of all users that open the attachment. The user is sent an e-mail with an attachment that looks similar to attachments that contain computer viruses. If the attachment is opened, an e-mail is sent to a specific e-mail address. This e-mail address collects all of the e-mail from users who have not changed behavior and need additional education or management attention.
An article written by David L. Wilson and published in the Dec. 4, 1999 edition of the San Jose Mercury News is included as background information on how computer viruses damage, replicate and spread. The article demonstrates that attempts are made by the mass media to educate computer users to avoid computer viruses. Despite the widespread information available to users on how to avoid computer viruses, the advice is left unheeded and the viruses continue to damage, replicate, and spread. "The two page article is labeled Drawing 1, Page 1 and Drawing 1 (Continued), Page 2."
Computer Users Spread Computer Viruses:
Nearly all computer viruses require action by computer users for the viruses to infect and spread. The key to controlling viruses is to educate users not to open file attachments that might carry viruses. Education about how to avoid computer viruses is similar to education about how to avoid incurable human viral diseases. For example, in some cases of human disease, there are human behaviors that can eliminate or minimize exposure to infectious disease. Computer viruses are similar in that behavior modification on the part of computer users can greatly eliminate or minimize exposure to computer viruses. However, education alone is an ineffective tool to stopping viruses. There are many widely published writings and documents, such as the San Jose Mercury News article, that warn of the danger of opening computer viral attachments yet many people continue to open infectious attachments. Effective behavior modification must have a means to reinforce the change, and to measure how widespread the change is in a population.
Changing Human Behavior is the Key to Conquering Computer Viruses:
In general, most computer users do not need to send executable programs as attachments or documents with macros to other e-mail users. One behavior change is that a user should not send executable programs or documents with macros unless absolutely necessary. If it is necessary to send such attachments, the sender needs to communicate to the recipient to expect specific attachments. The second, and most important, behavior change is that a user should not open an attachment that is an executable program or a document with a macro unless there is specific knowledge that the attachment is safe to open. The third behavior change is that a user should inform their information services staff if they receive an e-mail attachment that appears to contain a computer virus. This last behavior provides early warning of new computer viruses, and allows companies such as Symantec and Network Associates to update their anti-virus software detection programs before the virus becomes widespread.
How Behavior Changes can be Made, Measured and Tracked:
Our invention tests, reinforces, and measures the changes in computer user behavior in regards to viral attachments, or attachments that may carry viruses. The invention sends e-mail messages with attachments to e-mail users. The attachments look similar to attachments that carry computer viruses. The invention creates a list of all users that open the attachment. If the attachment is opened, an e-mail is sent to a specific e-mail address—perhaps that of an Information Systems manager who will monitor behavioral changes. This specific e-mail address collects all of the e-mail addresses and information from users who have not changed their behavior and need additional education or management attention. Additionally, a message within the attachment is displayed to the e-mail user informing them they opened a file that may have contained an infected virus. The e-mail user may also receive a separate e-mail message informing them again that they opened a file that may have contained an infected virus.
It is possible to test, measure, and track behavioral changes of an entire e-mail user population of a corporation for example, or randomly sample a small portion of an e-mail community. E-mail systems such as Microsoft Outlook have the ability to track when a user receives an e-mail message, opens an e-mail message, and/or deletes an e-mail message. However these e-mail tracking functions only apply to the e-mail messages and not to the attachments. The behaviors of e-mail users, such as deletion of the invention e-mail, can be tracked and measured. In addition, for behavior reinforcement, the attachment can display a message that warns the user that they have opened an attachment that could have been a computer virus. The attachment can also act very similar to a computer virus and replicate itself and transmit copies to other e-mail addresses (secondary e-mail addresses). Secondary e-mail addresses can be gathered from the original user's personal e-mail directories. It will appear to the secondary e-mail recipients that the e-mail attachments originated from people that the secondary recipients might know, when in fact the e-mail messages and attachments originated from the invented viruses. These actions are similar to the behavior of real computer viruses and they will test an organization for safe computer behavior. To limit the impact of the computer virus replication process, the invented virus may contain a counter that changes with each replication cycle. The replication process can cease after a specified number of cycles.
The Concept and Design of the Invented Virus:
The invention is basically a benign computer virus, and therefore must be designed to pass undetected by anti-virus software and be attractive for e-mail users to open. Since anti-virus software is continuously updated and user behavior will become more sophisticated, the invention must also be continuously updated to mimic harmful "wild" computer viruses.
The basic elements of the invented benign virus can be implemented as executable programs written in C++, Visual Basic, or a number of programming languages that contain programming functions that use Mail Application Programming Interface, MAPI. The invention uses MAPI to send feedback e-mail information to a specific e-mail address of a person who will monitor, measure, and track computer user behavior (i.e. the person who will perform the "tracking function"—for example an Information Systems administrator). The invented program is sent as an attachment to the e-mail users. The invention can also be implemented as a Microsoft Word macro in a Word document using macros such as "File", "Send to", or "Mail Recipient" functions. The macros can send e-mail feedback to the person performing the "tracking function".
The design of the benign virus can be crafted from virulent viruses to mimic their appearance and replication capabilities. The virulent virus would be modified to send the e-mail information to the person performing the tracking function, and the destructive functions would be deleted. The virulent virus may also need to be modified to circumvent anti-virus programs. The resulting benign virus is sent as an e-mail attachment to the test population. The person performing the tracking function will receive e-mails in his/her e-mail "in-box" from all of the users who open the attachment. The tracking function person's e-mail "in-box" can be used to generate a list of users who need additional attention and behavior modification. The steps of creating the e-mail user list to be tested, sending the e-mails, and creating the list of e-mail users may be done as manual steps or automated as a program using the MAPI functions.
One key element in the battle against computer viruses is changing user behavior to prevent opening infected e-mail attachments. This invention aids in reinforcing and measuring changes in user behavior.

|SalesVantage.com >> Article Archives >> Sales Coaching >> Don't Fire All the Salespeople Just Yet!
First, you may be in the middle of a flat or declining market. Many industries are experiencing the second or third year of flat or decreasing sales. That alone makes you wonder. If your sales aren't growing, what are the salespeople doing, after all? Could you maintain your business with out salespeople?
Then there is the constantly drip, like a Chinese water torture, of price pressures from the competition. It's likely that their sales are down as well. Many of them, in a desperate bid to maintain their businesses, will continue to resort to more aggressive discounting. When margins fall, can you afford to pay salespeople?
Of course you keep reading the reports about the quantity of business being done over the web via e-commerce. You can't help but wonder if a cleverly constructed web site might substitute for a field salesperson. How long before everyone buys over the web?
Finally, to rub salt into the wound, you have consultants who maintain that your customers really don't want salespeople calling on them, and you should abandon that outmoded vestige of days gone by.
Add all that up, and it makes a pretty compelling case. Should you fire all the salespeople, and pour the money you save into a dynamite e-commerce solution? Should you beef up inside sales to field more phone calls?
Probably not.
The answer lies, not in the general trends and national reports, but rather in the specifics of your customers, your salespeople, and your suppliers. The trends and pressures may be global, but the answers are local.
The real questions have to do with your customers and your salespeople. This time of tremendous pressure is calling for, not desperate changes, but rather rational assessment.
It is time to look carefully at aspects of your sales system and to examine them from some new perspectives.
It is time to study your customers and answer some questions:
What a sobering analysis of your customers may reveal is this:
While a small portion of your customers may want to implement all their buying decisions over the web, the overwhelming majority want to use the web as a means of facilitating the transactions, not as a substitute for a relationship with a live person and a real company.
While a small portion of your customers will be enticed by lower prices from a desperate competitor, the majority typically see the gambit for what it is: a risk to the security of their supply lines.
While a portion of your customers may not want to spend time with a distributor salesperson, the majority will if they feel that the time investment is worth it. This is more an indictment of the quality and performance of your sales force than a reflection of a trend among your customers.
What a sobering analysis of your sales force may reveal is this:
The majority have been lulled into comfort zones and are unable or unwilling to break out of them. Same customers, same methods, same products and year of ingrained habit are hard to break.
Only a few are really adhering to the disciplines that will help them grow the business: focusing on the high-potential customers, promoting the strategic lines, planning, and consultative selling processes.
What a sobering analysis of your vendors may reveal is this:
Most would view your action as withdrawing from the market, and would immediately begin seeking a more active local partner.
Many would be happy to see just the opposite approach - a more aggressive, organized pro-active effort to capture more of the market spearheaded by effective salespeople
As a result of doing your own local analysis, you may draw these conclusions:
Rather than leaping to the extreme and firing the salespeople, a wiser course of action is to study your situation, and then to refocus your sales efforts. For years I have been calling for "fewer and better" distributor salespeople. Now is the time to initiate or intensify your movement in that direction. Here are four initiatives that will move you in the direction of a refocused, more productive and effective sales effort.
1. Study your customers.These are major initiatives that will occupy a great deal of your executive time, talent and emotional power over the next year. However, when you get to the other side, you'll have a more effective, more powerful sales force. You'll have a sales force that your vendors respect, that brings value to your customers and is a powerful strategic asset for you. It'll be worth it.
Or, you could just fire them all.

Spaghetti for the Soul helps listeners develop a passionate faith, hope, and love as two friends dish - with kick! - about what God wants for us.Drawing on the Italian heritage they share, Kathy and Ellie share their Brooklyn roots and passion for Jesus. Leave chicken soup to the souls who need comfort, the authors say, because they're talking about the Christian life that Jesus promised in John 10:10: life like spaghetti - messy, satisying, full of meat, joyful fun ("honestly," the authors say, "can you slurp a noodle without a pucker or a smile?"), and brimming with nourishment and energy. Leaping, loud, abundant life.Using humor, personal experiences from their spiritual and family heritage, and Bible teaching, the authors seek to nudge (or, they would say: push and shove) listeners into living more abundantly by...
allowing God to infiltrate one's thoughts, choices, time, and everyday life (John 3:30)
honoring God (Isaiah 3:10, Psalm 5:12, Lamentations 3:25)
going everywhere and doing all things in Jesus' name (Deuteronomy 28:6)
delighting one's self in God (Proverbs 37:4),
learning God's will and ways (Isaiah 2:3, Psalm 32:8, James 1:5)
sharing the good news of God's love and grace to every person through Jesus (Romans 1:16).Filled with inspirational chapters, Spaghetti for the Soul will give listeners the motivation (read: a Soprano-like shot of adrenaline), practical ideas, fun facts, some recipes from the Italian kitchens of their grandmothers, and the biblical insight needed for more vibrant living for God.

Perhaps the most celebrated animal story of the nineteenth century, "Black Beauty "is the suspenseful and deeply moving account of a horse's experiences at the hands of many owners some, sensitive riders who treated him gently; others, cruel drivers who thoughtlessly inflicted lasting damage. Written as the animal's autobiography, and as an appeal for the humane treatment of horses, Anna Sewell's beloved classic reveals as much about human conduct and the social ills of the time as it does about the treatment of animals. Scenes from the lives of both the landed gentry and the impoverished working class offer a subtle but well-rounded perspective of social conditions in England during the late 19th century.Animal lovers of all ages will cherish this memorable story, available in this unabridged, modestly priced edition. "
The Troublemaker Next Door (Book 1): He's not into relationships. She's done with idiots. But where there are friends...sometimes there Black Beauty ebook pdf are benefits. And sometimes the boy next door might be just what you need at the end of every day. This Hackett edition, first published in 1981, is an unabridged and unaltered republication of the seventh (1907) edition as published by Macmillan and Company, Limited. From the forward by John Rawls: In the utilitarian tradition Henry Sidgwick (1838-1900) has an important place. His fundamental work, The Methods of Ethics (first edition 1874, seventh and last edition 1907, here reprinted), is the clearest and most accessible formulation of what we may call 'the classical utilitarian doctorine.' This classical doctrine holds that the ultimate moral end of social and individual action is the greatest net sum of the happiness of all sentient beings. Happinesss is specified (as positive or negative) by the net balance of pleasure over pain, or, as Sidgwick preferred to say, as the net balance of agreeable over disagreeable consciousness...

An (almost) full Premier League fixture list on Saturday
Saturday's Match of the Day looks like one to stay in for, not only because Alan Shearer won't be supplying his very own brand of wooden analysis but also because there are eight whole Premier League fixtures to get your teeth into. In fact, if Liverpool v Blackburn started a couple of hours later the big four would all be kicking off at 3pm on a Saturday for the first time since September 2006.
On the Saturday after the European thrashing before, Liverpool face a fast improving Blackburn – they have 11 points from a possible 18 – but if Rafael Benítez's side do win they'll climb above Manchester United for a few hours at least. And it probably will be only for a few hours. Yes, United's suspect defence will be without Rio Ferdinand yet again due to injury but it's worth remembering for all the prophecies of doom surrounding them, they have won 12 of their last 14 league games. Sunderland, on the other hand, have been defeated by West Ham, Manchester City and Wigan in the their last three games. You somehow suspect this weekend won't be remembered as The One Where United Lost The Title.
Amr Zaki v Steve Bruce
Over at Wigan, Steve Bruce has made it clear Amr Zaki won't be starting his team's game against Arsenal after the striker went awol following a spell on international duty. "I find it very difficult to contemplate where his future is at the moment, bearing in mind how I feel on the situation," said Bruce. "It's probably the fifth time [it has happened] and that cannot be the case."
Even if Zaki isn't selected that's not to say we shouldn't be prepared for a spot of fisticuffs on the sidelines when the Egyptian doesn't come back from the snack bar after Bruce gives him 50p for a can of Fanta.
Rangers v Motherwell
The SPL looks like it will go all the way to the wire, with just three points separating Rangers and Celtic. However, it will be interesting to see how the petulance of Barry Ferguson and Allan McGregor will affect the run-in. Both players were given two-week suspensions by their club following their display of two-fingered saluting while on international duty and their futures at Ibrox remain uncertain. It's highly unlikely the uncertainty hasn't filtered down to the other Rangers players: since Ferguson and McGregor's suspension Rangers have recorded two unconvincing wins, while Celtic have notched back-to-back 4-0 victories. A more encouraging team display against Motherwell is much needed.
Lazio v Roma
It's been an uninspiring year for football in the Italian capital so far. Roma have been beset by injuries – something that seems to happen most years and asks questions of their medical staff – and are five points off the Champions League places. Lazio are even worse off and drift listless in ninth. Luckily this fixture always provokes an injection of passion and a win for Roma could see them make a late break for a top four finish.

Ahead of the formal adoption of the sustainable development goals (SDGs) at the UN's Sustainable Development Summit this weekend in New York, Guardian Sustainable Business asks: what are the SDGs, what do they mean for business and what impact will they have?
What are they?
The SDGs effectively replace the millennium development goals (MDGs), which were in place from 2000 to 2015. Whether you believe the MDGs were a success or not, they certainly became a fulcrum for global development. In 2012, at Rio+20, it was agreed that a new set of goals would be drawn up, based on widespread stakeholder engagement.
The final 17 goals as agreed by all 193 member states of the UN cover a 15-year timeframe to 2030 and include 169 targets. "Unlike the MDGs, the private sector has been very involved in their creation," says Simon Kingston, global development practice lead at Russell Reynolds Associates.
Which goals are most business-specific?
MDG sceptics long argued that the only reason people were lifted out of poverty from 2000-2015 was the economic growth of developing and middle-income markets, most notably China and India. In a sense, the SDGs build on that argument and embrace private sector growth as a means for development and poverty reduction.

Skins & Things
The framework of your web pages is contained in a file referred to as a skin. Any website can have has many different skins as needed in order to provide as many layout templates as desired. The skin defines the placement of headers, footers, menus, graphics and content areas. It also typically contains elements that repeat on various pages, like the menu and links to the visitor's profile, shopping cart, the login/logout screen and a site search box.
Containers may optionally be used to create mini skins within the framework of a single page. Containers divide up the page visually by using lines or frames, background colors and images, headings, and typically utilize a different set of colors from the page template to highlight the content within them.
The colors, fonts and point sizes for the menus, links and text content are all controlled through the use of style sheets. Each skin and container can have their own style sheets, allowing you to change the appearance of any page within the site as dramatically as you wish. Entire sections of the website can utilize unique skins, containers and style sheets allowing you to create what may appear to be multiple websites within the same site or domain.

History of St Oliver Plunkett Primary School
Blessed Oliver Plunkett School opened on January in 1947.
The Presentation Sisters staffed the school; a religious order founded by
Nano Nagle
an Irish saint.
Blessed Oliver Plunkett Church began its existence as part of the parish of St Peter and Paul's Bulimba, under the pastoral care of Fr O'Keeffe.
Archbishop Duhig had bought out several small landowners on the hill and he donated the land to the Bulimba parish.
Archbishop Daniel Mannix, who was visiting Brisbane at the time, laid the foundation stone on 7th August 1921.
A large crowd of 10, 000 attended the ceremony for what was described as 'one of the most memorable Catholic functions that ever took place in Brisbane'.
As the parish continued to grow, a little band of pioneer Sisters, led by Mother Raymond Lloyd, responded to a request from Fr. Walter Cain to staff a school which was to begin in January 1947 at Cannon Hill.
A small convent was built, which consisted of a chapel, a dining room (which doubled-up as a community room), a dormitory, a kitchen and a bathroom, and made ready for the Sisters' arrival.
The choir loft of the church and underneath the convent served as classrooms for the first four years, with an initial enrolment of 60 students, until a new school, costing £4000 ($8000), was blessed and opened in 1951 under the patronage of Father Kelly.
Five sisters, with no ancillary staff, managed the whole school with a population of 360 with some combined classes having as many as ninety students.
The population of the school increased so quickly that the underneath of the convent continued to be used well into the fifties to accommodate the growing numbers of students.
When the Presentation novitiate moved from Longreach to Manly, in 1953, postulants and novices travelled each day to assist the Cannon Hill Community in the school.
This daily trek continued for some ten years. The convent building was extended in 1956 and in May of that year the Sisters moved back on site.
On 12 October 1975,
Oliver Plunkett
was canonised, in Rome, by Pope Paul VI (the first Irish Saint in seven hundred years), and the school changed its name from Blessed Oliver Plunkett School to St Oliver Plunkett School. Teaching at St Oliver Plunkett School remained the focus of the Sisters' work until December 1986, when after 40 years' service they turned their attention elsewhere.
The first lay principal of St Oliver Plunkett School was Mr Keith Willard. In honour of the early founders of the school the House Teams were named Raymond, Kelly and Nagle.
As we enjoy and celebrate what we have at St. Oliver Plunkett School today, we must remember the generosity and commitment of the Presentation sisters who were the foundation of St. Oliver Plunkett School.
We give thanks for their cooperation, unselfish efforts and the challenges they faced.
There was then, as there is today, a special atmosphere when people of different nationalities and experiences meet with a smile, a simple conversation or a handshake, in a gesture of friendship.

What is 'Retrocession'
Retrocession is the practice of one reinsurance company providing services to another by insuring the activities of another reinsurance company. This is done by accepting business that the other company had agreed to underwrite. Retrocession can refer to the process of differentiating or diversifying assets by consolidating and then subdividing them among a number of stakeholders.
BREAKING DOWN 'Retrocession'Retrocession can also refer to the voluntary act of returning ceded property currently under the control of one group to another group that often exhibited previous ownership of the aforementioned property. These property exchanges may potentially be made by request but are not the result of a forced transaction.
Retrocession in Insurance
Retrocession occurs when one reinsurance company has other reinsurance companies partially underwrite some of its reinsurance risk. This diversifies the risks in a portfolio and helps to limit potential losses as a result of a catastrophe. For example, if a hurricane causes widespread damage to businesses, homes, automobiles and lives, a single insurer could face bankruptcy without retrocession.
Retrocession and Property
Retrocession, in regards to property, applies to a situation where ownership of a particular property is relinquished to another party voluntarily. A well-known international act of retrocession is when Hong Kong was given back to the Chinese from the British in 1997. Britain claimed ownership of Hong Kong after the Opium Wars, and additional territory was subsequently leased to the British by the Chinese. On July 1, 1997, the lease ended and Britain officially transferred control of the area back to the Chinese.
Hedge Fund-Backed Reinsurance Companies
Hedge funds became involved in the reinsurance, as the agencies buy very valuable single assets and divide them on a pro-rata basis among partnership unitholders. Just as risk and liabilities can be retroceded, so can assets. This allows hedge funds to back reinsurance opportunities with assets in their possession.
At times, the hedge fund-backed reinsurance companies are opened on foreign soil, allowing the assets to be transferred out of the United States to reduce or defer tax liability. At times, the relocated assets were in amounts significantly higher than necessary to provide proper backing to the reinsurance options being offered. In response to the activity, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) proposed new regulations in 2015 to define the nature of the businesses as well as what activities can be considered allowable, especially those activities related to investment income compared to the companies' insurance premium income.

well, they haven't for 3 years...
but once we get a new AC with Aeria they most likely will.
Do you think that IJJI can stop Roundskippers? Or maybe patch their AVA so that we can't use Cheatengine?
well, they haven't for 3 years...
but once we get a new AC with Aeria they most likely will.
There are a lot of ways that they can stop CE being practical in AVA. The most obvious being making all guns, rounds, and boxes server sided. I have no idea why they haven't, I mean, surely it doesn't induce lag or impact on the strain in servers at all.
A more complex patch would be to make the values completely roaming, so that cheat tables and previous, saved, searches would not function. Basically it assigns 10, or 20 random instances that occur when you open your client. The same thing is done in COD:MW3 in terms of the hosting system; there are 12, if I remember correctly, values that influence how a host it picked; thus making it extremely hard to find which value/s you want to alter.
However, no matter what, all guns should be server sided, IJJI is just stupid leaving guns on the client.
They just need to update gameguard so it detects the 64bit version of CE too, it shouldn't be hard.
Cheat engine is usually what gaming companies block first and when they want to they will, there just lazy at the moment.

Uh, So, Aeria Games are now taking command of IJJI's patches and VGs?
Well yes they can...
I am sure Aeria will block it after the merge ... if not that means Aeria is a piece of sh*t gaming company.
So we gotta enjoy CE till then.

rofl ,,,we need addguns.. or CE will be patched and noone will have the dual and otherweap...turn it publ plz
Diegostreet (07-22-2012)
when i first saw that u can use CE with AVA i was like :confusedface: LOL
I know that usually anti-cheat systems always block CE...i just used it in Singleplayer games till now
Download one of the Aeria games they already own and try using CE with it. If you can, then they don't care, if you can't then yes, Aeria will stop it. And it's not that hard.
Oh and if you HAVEN'T already heard of the new anticheat system they're going to be using, if it detects any kind of cheating, like if the game crashes because of some kind of cheating error like game gaurd gives you, you will me INSTANTLY banned. Soo go ahead and use CE after the merge huehuehue
EDIT: I HOPE Aeria stops CE hackers as they are nothing but stupid. I disapprove of it and when they do, there will be no bypass or anything to fix it and I will be happy. Everyone will RQ and the game will be once again at peace. HAVING TO USE HACKS TO PLAY THE GAME IS TERRIBLE. Especially when you're good without it. Counter-hacks is what the other 30% of the community who hack use for a reason and i respect that because there are wayy too many hackers in the game. It's not even fun and I don't know why people waste there time on a free game just to hack it. Makes no sense to me. I can handle macros and even aimbots, but OPK and CHAMS is what REALLY ruins the game.

Just don't know why they are so lazy to stop CE. It's one of the easiest things to make difficult to use or block.
I always thought CE was crap but after seeing people using CE in AVA, I was shocked and started Admiring CE XD
I believe they will. Aeria will try to anything to make ava a "better" game. They are starting to ban all co-op hackers now, and I think it will lead up to the detection of CE.

The Alpha's Search (The Craven Trilogy, #1)(6)By: Natalie Shaw
"How can I help you?" I asked. "Are you still interested in visiting the States?"
Ignoring my question, he said, "Where are you holidaying this year?" Craven shuffled forward on the seat. His hands were on the table—only inches from mine.
He nodded.
"I haven't booked anything yet."
"Where did you go last year?"
Dexter Travel employees received generous discounts on their package holidays. Even so, my finances were always stretched to the limit. I'd only managed a short break last year.
"I went to France."
"Did you enjoy it?" He put his hand on mine.
"What?" I gasped as what felt like an electric shock passed through my body. My instinct was to pull away, but my hand wouldn't respond. I looked to my left. Sarah was at her desk attending to a customer, but something wasn't right. It took a few seconds for me to realise what it was. No one was moving. I glanced to my right. The scene was the same. Everyone in the shop appeared to be frozen in time. This couldn't be happening. I closed and re-opened my eyes, but nothing had changed. Sarah's mouth was open as though caught mid-sentence. It had to be some kind of crazy dream. I must have fainted again.
"Are you okay?" Craven said.
He wasn't frozen like the others.
"What's happening?" I asked.
"It's okay. There's nothing to worry about."
"Look!" I nodded to the other people in the shop. "Look at them. What's happened to them?"
"Nothing. They'll be perfectly fine."
"What did you do?"
"Look at me." He moved his face closer to mine. "Do you remember yet?"
"Remember what? I don't know what you're talking about. Who are you?"
"Look into my eyes." His face was now only inches from mine.
"Just do as I say. Allow your mind to see."
This man was bat-shit crazy. Either that or I was. I pushed back in my chair and managed to pull my hand from under his.
The volume level in the room had been restored. I turned to my left. Sarah was now talking to her customer. To my right, Candice was laughing. Everything was back to normal.
"What the hell was that all about?" I said to an empty chair. Craven had disappeared.
Somehow I made it through the day. I hadn't mentioned what had happened to Candice or Sarah. They'd have thought I'd lost the plot. Perhaps I had—the mind could play games—couldn't it?
I had two days holiday owing to me, so I booked the next couple of days off. If Craven came back to the shop he'd have to make do with Candice or Sarah.
On the way home after work, I stopped off at the corner shop, and treated myself to chocolate and crisps. When I got back to the flat, I didn't mention anything about the day's events to Alison. She'd have quizzed me about it all night. I just wanted to shut myself away in my bedroom with Coke, chocolate, crisps and a good book. I was almost half way through 'Fated', and loving every minute of it, even though Alison had done her best to spoil it for me. She mocked me at every opportunity: 'What on earth do you see in werewolves?'
Good as the book was—it wasn't long before I began to nod off. A couple of times, I woke myself up when the book slipped out of my hand. Eventually, I must have drifted off to sleep.
I lifted the flaming torch from its cradle, and held it out in front of me. The light from the flames lit up the tunnel. There was a fork ahead. Which way? Left? Right? I listened, but there were no sounds. I took the left fork. A breeze blew along the tunnel—I was terrified the flame might be extinguished. A sound—a voice? I stood still and listened. The voice came again—it sounded distant—the words barely audible. I edged forward towards a bend in the tunnel. The voice again. This time I caught a word: 'Lewis' or was it 'Louise'? I couldn't be sure. The voice was getting louder now. Someone was coming towards me. Frozen to the spot, I waited. I heard the word again: 'Louise'. Whoever it was, was only a few metres away now. I still had time to turn and run away. A strong gust of wind rushed through the tunnel. The flame was extinguished, and I was plunged into darkness. My heart was racing. 'Louise'. The voice was almost upon me. I stared into the darkness. Waiting—what else could I do?
Two spots of light moving towards me. Eyes.
The torch re-ignited. In front of me was a figure? A man? It was a face I recognised.
"Jeez!" I sat up in bed. My heart felt as though it was about to burst out of my chest. Another damn nightmare! This one had been a little different. It had been the first time I'd seen the occupant of the cave. Until now, I'd only ever seen his eyes. What's more, I'd recognised him—it was Craven.

Pakbeng and the boat
Pakbeng Travel Blog› entry 4 of 15 › view all entries
May 15th, 2009 – by: sleepingsunshine
There was nothing much to do after the dinner, and so we prepared to sleep before the total dark out.
The boat was crowded yesterday and was very very crowded today.
Just when we were about 25km from Luang Prabang, rain started to pour down. We put down the curtains on the 2 sides of the boat to stop the rain from coming in. But it got really windy, and our boat started to sway. So the captain ordered us to pull up the curtains so the wind could pass thru the boat and stabilized it. It didn't help much, the boat was too overloaded and the captain had to stop the boat on the side of the river and wait for the rain to stop before continuing. It was already 6pm and we were supposed to reach Luang Prabang at 5. We were cold and hungry, and the sun was sinking down slowly behind the hills.. I started to wonder if the captain can ride the boat at night..

- Country Summary (from the World Factbook)As Europe's largest economy and second most populous nation (after Russia), Germany is a key member of the continent's economic, political, and defense organizations. European power struggles immersed Germany in two devastating World Wars in the first half of the 20th century and left the country occupied by the victorious Allied powers of the US, UK, France, and the Soviet Union in 1945. With the advent of the Cold War, two German states were formed in 1949: the western Federal Republic of Germany (FRG) and the eastern German Democratic Republic (GDR). The democratic FRG embedded itself in key Western economic and security organizations, the EC, which became the EU, and NATO, while the communist GDR was on the front line of the Soviet-led Warsaw Pact. The decline of the USSR and the end of the Cold War allowed for German unification in 1990. Since then, Germany has expended considerable funds to bring Eastern productivity and wages up to Western standards. In January 1999, Germany and 10 other EU countries introduced a common European exchange currency, the euro.
