Picture: Noel Gallagher, Liam Gallagher, Andy Bell and Gem Archer Studio photo shoot with Oasis. Tokyo, Japan - 20.11.05
Oasis rocker Liam Gallagher is tired of London and keen to return to his native northern England.
The Manchester-born singer has been busy recording new material for the band's upcoming sixth studio album in London - but he claims he's grown sick of the capital and ready to revisit his friends and family in the north.
He says, "I've just been so busy in the studio recording new stuff and sometimes London just does your head in and it's s***.
"But it makes going back north better in a way. I do miss it. Everything is so far apart here, but I'm going to go and see me mam soon."06/09/2004 17:13
There were a number of defining bands of the 90's but Oasis were indisputably one...

On February 25, 2015, the Department of Labor (DOL) published a Final Rule revising the definition of "spouse" under the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and expanding it to include all legally-married individuals, including those in common law and same-sex marriages, regardless of whether their state of residence recognizes such unions. The Final Rule becomes effective on March 27, 2015.
The FMLA and the Current Definition of "Spouse"
The FMLA provides eligible employees with up to 12 weeks of job-protected, unpaid leave in a 12-month period. Employees are eligible if they have worked for at least 12 months and performed at least 1,250 service hours during the 12 months immediately preceding the leave, and work at a facility within 75 miles of 50 or more employees. FMLA leave is available for the following events:
- the care of the employee's newborn child;
- the adoption or foster care placement of a child with the employee;
- the care of the employee's spouse, child, or parent with a serious health condition;
- the employee's own serious health condition; and
- any "qualifying exigency" arising from the active duty military service of the employee's spouse, child, or parent.
In addition, an employee may take up to 26 weeks in a 12-month period to care for a covered servicemember's serious injury or illness if the employee is the servicemember's spouse, child, parent, or next of kin.
FMLA leave may be taken continuously or, in certain circumstances, intermittently or on a reduced schedule. The employer must maintain any preexisting group health plan coverage while the employee is on FMLA leave.
Until 2013, Section 3 of the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) defined "marriage" for the purposes of federal law, including the FMLA, as "only a legal union between one man and one woman as husband and wife." It similarly restricted the definition of "spouse" to refer "only to a person of the opposite sex who is a husband or a wife." On June 26, 2013, the Supreme Court held in United States v. Windsor, 133 S. Ct. 2675 (2013), that Section 3 of DOMA violated the Fifth Amendment's guarantee of equal protection for same-sex couples who were legally married under state law, and was therefore unconstitutional. As a result of the Windsor ruling, the DOL was no longer prohibited from recognizing a same-sex spouse as a covered family member for FMLA leave purposes. The DOL subsequently advised that the definition of "spouse" extended to same-sex married couples living in states that recognized their marriages.
The Final Rule and the New Definition of "Spouse"
The February 2015 Final Rule still states that the term "spouse" as defined in the statute "means a husband or wife." However, the Final Rule makes three very significant revisions to the current definition that make clear that "husband or wife" includes all legally-married individuals, whether opposite-sex, same-sex, or married under common law.
First, the Final Rule changes how the DOL determines whether a marriage is valid and therefore whether the individuals are "spouses." Since Windsor, the DOL has used a "state of residence" rule -- that is, a couple is married if the couple lives in a state that recognizes the marriage as valid. In contrast, the Final Rule now uses a "place of celebration" rule, which looks to whether the marriage was legal in the jurisdiction in which it was entered.
Second, the revised definition of "spouse" explicitly includes same-sex marriages in addition to common law marriages.
Third, the revised definition of "spouse" includes same-sex marriages entered into abroad if they were valid where performed and could have been legally performed in at least one state.
These changes and the Final Rule itself make clear that the revised definition covers all spouses in legally-valid marriages, regardless of whether the regulation or the couple uses the terms "husband" or "wife."
The Final Rule explains that these changes are intended to ensure that all legally-married couples have consistent federal leave rights no matter where they live. The revisions also bring the DOL in line with other federal agencies such as the Department of Defense and the Internal Revenue Service, which have already adopted the "place of celebration" rule. Although some commenters raised a concern that this imposes a potential burden on employers to know the marriage laws of jurisdictions beyond those in which they operate, the change also simplifies FMLA administration for multi-state employers and those with employees who move between states.
In light of this significant expansion of the FMLA's scope, which becomes effective on March 27, 2015, employers should promptly seek guidance in revising their leave policies and administration to conform with the revised regulation. The attorneys at Day Pitney can assist in this effort. For detailed information regarding the FMLA and related state laws, please contact one of the attorneys in our practice group.

Original paper
Relative importance of factors determining diversity and composition of freshwater leech assemblages (Hirudinea; Clitellata): a metaanalysis
Koperski, Paweł
Archiv für Hydrobiologie Volume 166 Number 3 (2006), p. 325 - 341
published: Aug 10, 2006
ArtNo. ESP141016673003, Price: 29.00 €
Data on numbers and percentages of leech species sampled in 55 Polish freshwater environments were analysed. Most of these data were published between 1951-1998. The first aim of the present study was to recognize the most important ecological factors affecting the diversity and taxonomic composition of leech assemblages in Polish waters. Evaluating the relative importance of these factors in explaining diversity and composition of the leech fauna was the second aim. The significance of six factors, potentially affecting the composition and diversity of the leech fauna was tested. These were: type of environment, size of environment, geographical location, presence of fish predation, sampling season and level of degradation. Two factors were found to be important determinants of the leech assemblage composition. The first were the specific properties of the ponds. Occurrence and percentages of certain leech species therein were significantly different from those in lakes. The second factor was the presence of fish or the intensity of fish predation. No significant differences in occurrence or percentages of species were found between geographic regions, habitat size and samples collected in various seasons. Lakes were the richest environments in terms of species number. The high mortality caused by sampling of leeches in small, semi-isolated ponds or in lakes localized in protected areas is discussed. Surprisingly, significantly lower species diversity was observed in environments with more intense fish predation.

What do you think about the new roster?
I think the additions of dooling, wilcox, brandon bass, marquis daniels and the resigning of jeff green is good because we add depth and youth to the team. to me, this roster already is better than the disaster 2010-2011 mid season roster so thats good.
I'm not going to miss big baby shooting constantly, and if green and the new additions can bring toughness and rebounding, the offense will come naturally. Bass, will have a big impact on the glass because the celtics are desperate for this and he is a big body.
I think the roster is ready now, whether the celtics trade or try to sign any more players.
:rockon: :rockon: :rockon: :rockon:
I love it when the celts fly under the radar going into the season, then make everybody feel stupid by the all star break.
bring it on
Re: What do you think about the new roster?
I like the Bass acquisition. I was joyful when I heard the trade news. It's a nice change up from the soft layups we got from Baby. He's not a high leaper, but he is a power guy that can complement KG. He's a little reminiscent of Powe.
Really can't complain about the Wilcox acquisition. There wasn't really any decent centers in the market.
I don't like the Sasha signing. I rather have Wafer.
Although I'm hard on Jeff Green, I think he can be good for the Celtics with time at the 3. He needs to learn the system and he needs to grow some balls if he wants to be the 6th man.
I'm not that high on the Dooling signing. He can help out Bradley as the backup point so Bradley can play his more natural position.
I don't really want Marquis back. He's a nice player who has more brains than half the players in this league, but he's too fragile at this point.
Re: What do you think about the new roster?
I like the roster for the most part but the need for a 7-footer is glaring and they could also use 1 more scoring option...

text: Sorry to start another thread but i need to uninstall this App and i dont know how. I always have to turn my phone off and reboot because it wont go to the unlock screen when the LED is flashing. I downloaded this from my phone and installed it from the download section of the "files" icon. No option for uninstall, just delete and that didnt get rid of the program on the phone.

For many, Valentine's Day means Cupid's arrows, red roses, and hearts on EVERYTHING. But for a lot of other folks, the thought of presenting someone with a giant teddy bear holding a plush heart that reads, "I Wuv U" seems a little silly. Sure, we appreciate the classic approach to V-Day gifting, but we're all for celebrating the holiday without all that over-the-top, sentimental, gooey stuff, too. In honor of those lovebirds who are sweet (but not sappy) and romantic (but still realistic), we created this collection of lovable gifts, minus the mush.

Whether you've settled down with someone who sends you over the moon, are falling hard for a guy or gal you can see yourself with for the long haul, or are just getting to know a new flame, you're probably thinking about getting them a gift for Valentine's Day. Of course, February 14 isn't only about romance. It's also a time to show the other great loves of your life how much you appreciate them. Celebrate those close to you, whether they're friends, family, or happen to have fur or fins, with this assortment of super sweet gifts for all of your valentines.
Gifts for Him: A Huge Gift Guide for GuysDecember 17, 2016
What do the phrases, "Man, this is tough.", "Oh, brother, where to start?", and "Dude, seriously? What am I supposed to get?" have in common? Other than opening with a nod to some hypothetical male, you've also probably uttered them rhetorically when wondering what in the heck to buy for an actual man in your life. We know guys run the gamut from sports fans to geeks to foodies (and many are all of the above and more at once!), so we created this list of our favorite gift guides featuring stuff for hard-to-shop-for fellas.
He's a modern man, but he still spends as much time as possible living in a cave. His man cave, that is. Help him turn his personal space into a truly impressive dude domain with this collection of cool guy gifts. | See more Man Cave Must-Haves>>
He already owns enough ties to open his own men's fashion store. His kitchen is loaded with gadgets that could make a professional chef swoon. His book, record, and every other collection you can think of are so complete you don't even know where to start when it comes to finding just what he needs. Saying he's hard-to-shop-for is an understatement, but don't worry. We have a whole list of things we bet he doesn't already have. | See more Gifts for Someone Who Has Everything>>
Uncommon Gifts for the Urban LumberjackNovember 23, 2012
The Urban Lumberjack may reside in the city–a forest of concrete and steel–but that doesn't stop him from embracing his manliness. No one's really sure exactly what his chin looks like, since it hasn't been without a beard in years. He looks great in a flannel. His stocking cap is his favorite accessory, and to him, calloused hands aren't a problem, they're just the result of a good day's work. He's ruggedly handsome; sophisticated, yet street smart; and stylish in a down-to-earth fashion. Sure, he's not always easy to shop for, but if you're pining to find the perfect gift for this masculine metropolitan man, one of these city-chic gifts with outdoorsy appeal will surely get you out of the woods.
Top 10 Valentine's Day Gifts for GuysJanuary 18, 2012
Valentine's Day is coming up, and while chocolates and flowers are nice, we know that some fellas would probably prefer valentines that can't be devoured and won't wilt in a few days. These great gifts for guys are uncommon ways to show the special man in your life just how lovable he is.
Custom Map Cufflinks
If there's a place close to his heart, you can help him wear it on his sleeve. Whether it's the place you first met, a landmark where you shared a romantic moment, or another special location, these custom map cufflinks are an elegant gift with a personal touch.
Titanium Multi-tool Collar Stays
Perfect for the dashing gentleman, who isn't afraid to use his hands, Titanium Multi-tool Collar Stays each feature a half-phillips screwdriver, a slotted screwdriver, a thread cutter, and a bottle opener. Thanks to these sleek little gadgets, your Mr. Fix-it doesn't have to sacrifice style.
Ball Park Color Top Pens
Maybe you've had a great times at a ballgames together, or maybe he's just a huge fan of a certain team. Either way, this gift is sure to be a home run. Made from the wood from salvaged stadium seats, these pens are officially licensed Major League Baseball collectibles. Each also includes a certificate of authenticity.
The Buck Stops Here Money Clip
Cash might not be a traditional Valentine's Day gift, but a stylish way to stash that cash is definitely acceptable. Featuring a vintage 1984 twenty-cent commemorative stamp, this money clip tells him that your search for your one-and-only is over. The buck has stopped, and your relationship is right on the money.
Seven Deadly Sins Shot Glasses
Maybe he's a bad boy, and you're okay with that. Giving him this set of seven sinfully delightful shot glasses tells him that you like his wild side.
Cast Iron Tool Bottle Openers
Although they look and feel like the real deal, these cast iron tools are actually hand-forged bottle openers. If your guy is handy with a hammer, ready with a wrench, or prepared with pliers, let him know you appreciate his DIY home repairs and can-do attitude with a tool he can use as he kicks back and relaxes while enjoying a bottle of his favorite beverage.
Wood Tie
He has everything you look for in a partner. A sense of humor, great style, and he isn't afraid to be a little different. Sure, silk ties are nice, but a wood tie is a way to show him that you really do like his uncommon look.
Fire Hose Wallet
Made from retired fire hoses, these sturdy wallets are a clever way to show your guy that he's your hero.
Frog Prince Paperweight
You knew that one day your prince would come. Now that he has, you can thank him for giving you your very own storybook ending with this pewter paperweight. Of course, your Prince Charming wears many hats–so why shouldn't he have fun changing the crown on his?
Pick Punch
You could give him a gift card…OR you could give him a device to help him actually use the leftover plastic when he's spent the gift cards he got for Christmas. The Pick Punch® cuts functional guitar picks from credit cards, gift cards, and similar sheets of thin plastic, so it's a great way to show your Valentine that he rocks.

Cherubic actress Samantha introduced us to her friend Studd. She told us that her special friend Studd was a real stress buster whenever she heads back home after a hectic day at the shoots.

Weeknight meals during the school year can be a pain. With all the activities, home work, and practices there isn't much time to get dinner on the table. Today I'm sharing an easy weeknight meal, Cheesy Tuna Casserole, that everyone in my family loves. You can make this meal ahead of time and even keep it in the fridge for a day or two before you cook it. Best it makes plenty for leftovers the next few days. I found Reynolds™ Disposable Heat & Eat containers that make it even easier to send leftovers with my husband for lunch.
This will make one 9×13 casserole dish or 2 8×8 dishes. I'm not going to claim that this is the healthiest meal, but it is a crowd pleaser and with a green salad or side of veggies it is a good meal.
- 2 boxes Mac and Cheese
- 2 cans Cream of Chicken or Cream of Mushroom Soup
- ½ cup grated cheese
- 2 small cans tuna drained
- Pre-Heat your oven to 350.
- Spray the bottom of your pan with cooking spray. You can use either one 9x13 pan or two 8x8 pans.
- Cook Mac and Cheese according to the directions on the package, increasing your milk by ¼ to ⅓ of a cup. Stir in the cream soup. Gently stir in both cans of drained tuna.
- Pour mixture into prepared pan.
- Sprinkle the top with grated cheese.
- Cook for 20 minutes or until melted and bubbly.
One of the best things about this meal is that it makes a ton and the leftovers are just as good the next day. Because we are on a super tight budget I LOVE when my husband takes leftovers to work. While I love sending leftovers, he isn't so good about bring my Tupperware back from work. Honestly I have more luck getting Tupperware back from kids' school lunchs. 🙂
So I have started sending my husband's lunch in these new Reynolds™ Disposable Heat & Eat containers they are plant based, perfect for the microwave, he doesn't have to worry about bring it home because they are disposable, and I don't have to wash them.
*Just a small tip ~ the Reynolds™ Disposable Heat & Eat are not meant to store food in long term. Because they are plant based they will break down over time. I like to keep my casserole in the glass pan then put it in the Reynolds™ Disposable Heat & Eat container right before my husband takes them to work.
I even have a coupon for you all! You can save a $1 and, check these out for yourself by picking up a pack of Reynolds™ Disposable Heat & Eat Containers at your local Walmart in the food storage aisle.

A DISQUALIFIED driver, who drove the wrong way down a Birmingham dual carriageway at night, without lights and high on cocaine, has been jailed.
Mohammed Shafi, who had ignored eight previous driving ban orders, was told by Mr Recorder Duncan Smith that his driving had been "deliberately dangerous".
The judge also said he had seldom seen a worse piece of driving and that the motorists Shafi had driven at "must have been in fear for their lives''.
Shafi, 28, of Vincent Street, Balsall Heath, who admitted taking a vehicle without consent and driving while disqualified was jailed for two years and 10 months, and also banned from the roads for five years.
Christopher Lester, prosecuting, told Birmingham Crown Court Shafi was seen by police driving his father's Volkswagen in the Hockley area in the early hors of April 27.
Shafi then sped off going the wrong way down Icknield Street, a dual carriageway.
Mr Lester said during the pursuit there were a number of occasion when the police were forced to back off because of the nature of Shafi's driving.
There came a stage, he said, when Shafi turned off his headlights as he continued to drive against oncoming traffic.
At one point Shafi drove on to the central reservation while two vehicles coming in the opposite direction had to take evasive action.
Mr Lester said Shafi also went through a red light at a major junction and that a BMW was forced to swerve around him before he eventually crashed into railings. He attempted to make off but was caught and later tested positive for cocaine.
Mr Lester said Shafi had eight previous convictions for driving while disqualified, three for taking motor vehicles without consent and that he had also been convicted of dangerous driving.
Shenaz Muzaffer, defending, said Shafi, who had worked as a car dealer, had panicked when he saw the police.

Abby is 38.5 months.
My motivation to have a theme every week is becoming relatively low. While going through all of our school bins, Abby just started pulling stuff out to do..so that's exactly what we did.
During a recent trip, my aunt gave us a huge bin full of toys, books and stuffed animals. Since, the weeks letter was "I," the ice cream truck seemed to fit right in.
We have also been working on letter recognition quite a bit here lately. I've been using letter flashcards my mother-in-law gave us, as well as, a set I purchased from the Sing, Spell, Read, Write program. I had intended to take it slow with weekly letter introduction, which I plan to continue, but I've noticed Abby's increased interest with letter sounds. We do cover that each week, but I look at this as an opportunity to challenge her a bit in the coming weeks.
One day, Abby wanted to bake. She brought me her apron, so I thought pumpkin bread would be fun to do. She had a lot of fun while learning how different ingredients combine to create a tasty treat.
I love the Dollar Store because you can find some really neat things. One of my finds was a magnet set with shapes, colors and words for each. I put them on a cookie sheet and she used pom poms to locate the shape I called out. I also had the shape name next to each. I asked her to look at the first letter of each word and tell me the name.
For Halloween, my parents gave Abby this fun little ring toss game. It's a great learning tool for her to match the colored beads on the rings to the animal and also for coordination. She finds it challenging to toss the ring perfectly on the animal without missing, but she enjoys it and gets really excited when she has a pefect toss!
Abby loves to be read to and she also loves reading to herself. Often, I have found her curled up in her room or while I'm cleaning she will lay on the couch. I hope her love of reading continues.

Clicked is the easiest and fastest way to edit your products and categories. Edit descriptions, names, custom fields, headers, footers, and more while browsing your store.
Clicked FastFAQs
It creates clickable areas in your store that you can edit while browsing. See a misspelling in your product description? Clickit and fixit!
Only customer accounts with editor privileges can edit.
Otherwise it's like Clicked isn't even there. Seriously: unless an editor is logged in, clicked does and loads NOTHING. Your regular customers will never know, even if they look at the page source, that clicked is installed.
You set up your editors in the Clicked module settings.
At this time Clicked can be used to edit:
- category name
- category header *
- category footer *
- product name
- product description
- product header *
- product footer *
- product price
- product weight
- product cost
- product inventory
- product custom fields - text and textarea *
Let us know if you want an editable area added to Clicked; we're always looking for more!
* these areas can also optionally have create content buttons if content does not already exist (Clicked configuration setting.)
Yes and no. The WYSIWYG functions are turned off for titles, prices, and other things that do not need HTML formatting.
However, for things like product descriptions,headers and footers, it's a full blown What-You-See-is-What-You-Get editor.
You can even adjust some of the formatting options on the toolbar in the Clicked configuration.
To get your product header, footer, price, weight, name, and description editable takes a few minutes at the most.
Contact us and let us know what you need. If we can make it editable, we will!
YES: This is very important.
Do not use Clicked on areas where you have page items or page entities. Clicked edits what is ON THE SCREEN, not what is behind the scenes.
For example, if your product description has any kind of
&mvt:... (page entity) or
<mvt:item... (page item) in it, do not edit that area with Clicked.
You can edit these too. You can even create new category and product headers on the fly!
Super easy!
The product content template is simply based on a product in your store. Set up the description, header, footer, and custom fields the way you want them with filler content, and then when a create-content button is clicked, the template will be used.
Templates are optional and if you don't use them, then some default "temporary content" content will be used.
The module settings include an option to enable "create content" buttons that will be displayed when an editor is viewing a product or category that does not yet have it's content.
When a "create content" button is clicked, temporary content is inserted so the editor can take care of business.
These buttons can be used along with content templates (see below) to make your store totally template driven and allow you to have content creators for your products that never have to be given admin access.
Product text and textarea custom fields are supported.
Custom fields can also use templates. Just set up the template data in the product you're using for the template and your'e good to go.
Want FastFAQs for your store? Get the module!
DEMO - Try it out here!
Instant product and category editing.
"This module lets you or even someone you designate to make changes to Product Descriptions, Prices, Header & Footer content with ever going into the store admin! You can even edit content in the Category Header & Footer area. Super simple, super easy! Just click to edit." ~ Leslie Kirk, 20 years Miva Merchant experience.
Content Templates
For editable areas that do not yet have content, you can enable Clicked to display buttons that will create content and optionally create content based on templates. This feature is supported for product headers, footers, description, and custom fields, and category headers and footers.
Ever wanted to have a click-to-edit template driven store? Now you can.
Content templates let you create products and then have your content creators do their job without ever going into the Miva Merchant admin.
Content templates for custom fields allows you to easily create complex product layouts that are super easy to edit. You'll never go back once you've tried Clicked.

AUSSIE families will be flocking to Queensland during the July school holidays as the Sunshine State continues to bounce back after last year's natural disasters.
The Gold Coast, Cairns and Port Douglas are expected to see the biggest year-on-year rises in visitor numbers.
Good early season snowfalls have also led to strong bookings for ski resorts in NSW and Victoria.
Wotif.com general manager Megan Magill said the top five destinations booked on the website during the school holidays were in Queensland.
The Gold Coast was the number one destination followed by Cairns, Port Douglas, the Sunshine Coast and Townsville.
"Clearly, many holiday makers are hoping that the 'Sunshine State' will live up to its name this winter," Ms Megan Magill said.
"What we're also seeing is large increases in bookings for regional areas, which suggests people are holidaying closer to home this winter.
"This could mean that more people are choosing to drive rather than fly to their holiday destinations."
Flight Centre spokeswoman Deana Tynan said school holiday bookings were up compared to last July.
"There is a trend towards the Gold Coast, while Sydney, Port Douglas and other parts of Tropical North Queensland are showing growth for the school holiday period,'' she said.
"This supports the traditional winter travel patterns, with people choosing to flee colder climates to holiday in places that are warmer.''
Travel.com.au bookings found Melbourne, Coolangatta and Cairns were the favourite spots for families travelling within Australia while New Zealand and the UK were the most popular overseas destinations.
Nicole Gentle, from travel and lifestyle website lastminute.com.au said there had been a surge in school holiday bookings in recent weeks.
She said bookings for Hobart in Tasmania were up 27 per cent compared to the same time last year, Byron Bay on the NSW north coast was up 24 per cent and the Sunshine Coast was up 20 per cent.
Jindabyne in NSW - which is the gateway town to Perisher and Thredbo ski resorts - was also up 47 per cent and Mount Hotham in Victoria was up more than 100 per cent.
"There are still plenty of bargains to be had,'' Ms Gentle said.
"Our number one tip is to be flexible and let the deals guide you when it comes to the destination or accommodation style you choose. And be ready to snap up a deal as soon as you see it before someone else does.''

Skip to comments.USS John Murtha, LPD-26
Posted on 04/13/2010 8:25:08 PM PDT by GATOR NAVY
How do I feel? Click the Murtha tab to find out - but until then, our friend Phil can pass the good news.
The Navys 10th San Antonio-class amphibious transport dock will be named for Rep. John Murtha, the long-serving Pennsylvania Democrat who chaired the powerful House appropriations defense subcommittee before he died in February.I won't speak more of the dead - but I can't think of any OIF veteran who would like to sail her - and I think the CNO should read the newspaper more - maybe vets from OIF should mail him clippings of this.
According to a Navy memorandum obtained by Navy Times, Navy Secretary Ray Mabus notified Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Gary Roughead that he had selected John P. Murtha for the previously unnamed LPD 26. Its the latest example of the Navy breaking a convention for naming its warships; the previous ships in the San Antonio class have been named for American cities.
(Excerpt) Read more at cdrsalamander.blogspot.com ...
This article (http://www.defenseprocurementnews.com/2008/12/30/navys-orders-long-lead-items-for-next-lpd/) says the Navy has allocated $10 million for long lead time components. That's not much on a ship costing over $1 billion. The actual production contract has not been let. LPDs 22 - 24 are currently building. Then probably 25 and 26 together. It will be sometime in the middle of the next decade before the ship is in the water. Maybe something will change by then.
This is bullshit. Murtha doesn't even deserve an outhouse named after him.
Look at it as a positive tradeoff: The ship for the man.
You actually think there will be another aircraft carrier? Not in my lifetime, that's for sure.
"You actually think there will be another aircraft carrier? Not in my lifetime, thats for sure."
Well, I WAS being a bit facetious, but in the case of Obamie,
who knows? I mean he is now messiah of the world, Mr. Nobel loves him, and, who knows? He may be president for life.
Surely they could build him his own carrier, at least in the Ravell shipyard ;)
Just another poke in the eye from this administration who hates the military.
And hopefully as boats are mothballed, this is the first to spend her days in Bremerton rather than active or being re-commissioned for some new duty.
"How about the USS Barack Hussein Obama?"
"Lists hard to port. Rudder is stuck and it sails in meandering counter-clockwise circles. Ammo bunkers are filled with cotton candy and Skittles. All weapons systems rendered inoperable. All comm systems play unending monotonous 0bama speeches."
LOL! Those are definitely rainbow-colored Skittles, too.
And no matter how many times they crew the ship it will later be found abandoned. The USS 0bama will be the first active duty ghost ship.
Not unless he can get a crew if Somali pirates.

With the fiscal cliff a few missteps away, GOP lawmakers are talking a smarter game. After months of resistance, a few wise heads are broaching the possibility of increasing tax revenue.
Sen. Bob Corker of Tennessee and Rep. Tom Cole of Oklahoma are among a small cadre of Republicans urging a compromise that would extend the Bush tax cuts to the middle class and allow the rates for those making more than $250,000 a year to rise. Corker, a member of the Senate Banking Committee, has gone so far as to suggest a plan to reduce $4.5 trillion from the federal deficit over the next decade by combining $3.5 trillion of spending cuts with $1 trillion in new tax revenue created from capping itemized federal tax deductions at $50,000.
These are steps worth pursuing to break the congressional logjam. Corker and Cole are smart enough to know that if nothing is done, the Bush tax cuts expire at year's end and rates go up for everyone. Coupled with deep mandatory spending cuts, the economy would risk another plunge into recession.
The Obama administration shouldn't let the Corker-Cole ideas wander into the political wilderness — and irrelevancy. But that's what will happen if the administration doesn't, in exchange, offer up a serious discussion of entitlement reform.
Within a day of Cole's comments, House Speaker John Boehner, who is negotiating with the White House and Democratic leaders, voiced curt disagreement with his approach. Before the GOP returns to lockstep, President Barack Obama needs to challenge congressional Democrats to put a framework for entitlement spending on the table.
Unfortunately, not only is Obama not doing that, but Democratic lawmakers such Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois and Rep. Xavier Becerra of California, vice chairman of the party caucus, are digging in their heels to block serious discussion of entitlement reform. Among the ideas they are resisting is consideration of raising eligibility ages, a position the president has proposed.
Such a head-in-the-sand approach will doom fiscal negotiations and hinder the heavy-lifting that must take place to keep Medicare and Social Security solvent. Ask most economists and they'll tell you the nation must reform entitlements, broaden the tax base, raise revenue and cut the deficit. The only sensible way to reach these goals is for Democrats and Republicans to honestly place everything on the table for negotiation.
There is no doubt that going over the fiscal cliff will hurt the economy, in part because financial markets want clear signals about tax policy and long-term spending. Allowing all tax rates to increase, not reversing some of the meat-cleaver sequestration cuts and failing to map out a framework for entitlement reform is the same devil's trifecta that prompted a debt ceiling fight, spooked financial markets and led to a downgrade of the nation's debt a year ago.
Time is running short. Every moment that Congress and the White House waste is placing unrealistic pressure on the Federal Reserve to keep the economy afloat.
What they said
"Progressives should be willing to talk about ways to ensure the long-term viability of Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. But those conversations should not be part of a plan to avert the fiscal cliff." — Democratic Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois, from prepared remarks he didn't deliver, but later told reporters he stood by
"If they [Democrats] are backing off entitlements, this is going to be a very difficult 30 days. We've said revenues are on the table. They need to come forward and man up and have entitlements on the table." — Republican Sen. Saxby Chambliss of Georgia, in response to Durbin

SPRING LAKE, N.C.-- WRAL reported Saturday the man accused of sexually assaulting an 11-year-old girl turn himself in.
The incident happened Tuesday as the young girl was walking to the library from her house.
Spring Lake police chief Troy McDuffie tells WFMY News 2 they have warrants charging 28-year-old Nathan Lynn Cooley of Spring Lake with First Degree Kidnapping and Taking Indecent Liberties with a Child.
However, Cooley has not been served and late Thursday they issued a nationwide 'be on the lookout' (BOLO) for him, Chief McDuffie said. Cooley was last seen driving a beige or gold Mitsubishi Galant with a Virginia license plate.
WFMY News 2 checked his background and learned Cooley is a registered sex offender in North Carolina. His registration is for lifetime. He was convicted of two previous child sex crimes.
The man lured the child to his car by posing as an police officer searching for his dog. Police said he drove the child to a wooded area and assaulted her.
People in the city are not only scared, but they're angry.
"It worries me to death to know that something like that would happen right across the street from the neighbors, my home, my kids and my grandkids," Nancy Serra, a Spring Hill resident told WRAL.
Police handling the case told WRAL the little girl is physically okay and back with her parents. However, police say she's emotionally traumatized.

Midget Farrelly at Palm Beach, 1964
by John Witzig
type C photograph (mount: 81.5 x 101.8 cm, image: 46.5 x 70.0 cm)
Bernard 'Midget' Farrelly AM (1944–2016), surfer and boardmaker, grew up in Sydney and first surfed at North Bondi in the early 1950s. By 1961 he was the Australian surfing champion. The following year he won the Makaha International Championship in Hawaii, becoming the first Australian ever to take out a major surf title. The first World Surfing Championships were held at Sydney's Manly Beach in 1964; more than 60,000 people saw Farrelly take the men's crown. He remained one of the world's leading surf competitors through the 1960s, finishing second in the 1968 and 1970 world championships. In this period he co-wrote A Surfing Life and How to Surf and began to shape boards; over the 1970s he built up a successful blank-making and chemicals business, Surfblanks. Farrelly was inducted into the Huntington Beach Surfing Walk of Fame in California in July 2007.

text: Business Insider brought my attention to this NPR interview with a man who lost 11 family members in Syria's recent chemical weapon strikes. Almost nothing is made plain in the interview. The man's family doesn't know whether the attacks were delivered by Assad's forces or rebels. He doesn't believe the US should strike Syria, but he does think "America should stand in the middle and stop the fighting" somehow. The only thing that is clear in the interview is the fact that people die whether the weapons used are chemical or conventional.

If you are in plans of selling your home, you must have already started figuring out which approach to take to gain the maximum benefits. It is wise to decide if you want to go by the traditional practice of hiring a real estate agent or go with the modern practice of selling the property to a cash home buyer. Before choosing one of these, you need to know how long each of these methods will take, the agent's commission, free cash offer on your home, if any, etc. You educate yourself on these options and get to know useful information by clicking on websites like realestate.usnews.com.
First, let's analyze the case wherein you need to sell your home as soon as possible for a valuable reason. Hiring an agent to help you will delay the selling process as it will take several months to years. To be specific, the typical waiting period is around six to nine months. Not all sellers will have the luxury of waiting for long. If you choose to sell the property to a cash home buyer, you can get your money in just 15 days and you can move on. The cash home buying companies have made the process of selling properties easy and the same will leave you will less stress.
The second case is if you have an inherited home that is not a necessity for you, provided you already have a home. It might become a burden as you need to spend time and money on its maintenance. In many cases, selling an inherited home would be tough as such properties are old and require a lot of updates and repairs. The real estate agents will ask you to handle the repair and cleaning work so that they can sell it. Eventually, you will have to invest money on the repair and cleaning tasks to sell it for a good price. On the other hand, the cash home buyers don't require you to do these. Such a company will just buy your property as it is, thereby saving your money and time without stressing you.
Privacy is something that is very important. If you are a person who doesn't like photos of your property being posted on the internet, you can quietly sell the same by approaching a cash home buying company. Such companies give value to your privacy. You can get rid of showing your home to strangers by choosing a cash home buying company instead of an agent.
If you have a rental property, you can generate income from the same. But there are pros and cons to the same. If you have bad tenants in your property, it is definitely not a good thing for you. Handling such tenants all by yourself could turn into a headache. In that case, you can seek the help of a cash home buying company that will help you out. You need not worry about handling such tenants as the company will do everything for you. You just have to collect the cash for the property you have sold and walk out.

Biggart Baillie has won BBC Scotland as a new client after participating in a beauty parade against a number of local rivals.
The Scottish firm pitched against DLA, Dundas & Wilson and Shepperd + Wedderburn for a place on BBC Scotland's three-strong legal panel. Masons, which handles some ad hoc work for BBC Scotland, failed to win a place on the panel. However, the firm is expecting to continue getting work in the future.
Burness and Maclay Murray & Spens, which have held places on the legal panel for six years, were re-appointed. However, it is understood that BBC Scot-land is scrutinising its longstanding relationship with Maclays. A well-placed source said that the Scottish firm has been given an opportunity to show that it shares the same public service/public value culture as the BBC.
The appointments are for a three-year period, although BBC Scotland head of legal Alistair Bonnington said relationships are under constant review. "External firms should be hungry for the BBC work," he said.

Posted on March 12, 2015 by Mukesh Annamalai Xiaomi has announced its next plan for launching new smartphone called Redmi 2?in India. ?Is this ready to beat all other phones? Lets find out..! This phone is the successor to Redmi 1S that was launched in India for INR 5,999/-? , The surprise is that this Redmi 2 comes with 64-bit Snapdragon Processor along with 4G LTE The Price is expected to be around close to INR 7K however we will wait for the launch in India to know more details about the price. The design of this Redmi 2 is almost similar to Redmi 1s Smartphone except that Redmi 2 will support support 4G LTE Specification: Display: ?4.7-inch (1280 x 720 pixels) IPS display Processor: 1.2 GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 (MSM8916 ) 64-bit processor with Adreno 305 GPU RAM: 1GB RAM, Internal Memory: 8GB, micro SD card up to 32GB SIM: Dual SIM Operating System: MIUI v6 Rear Camera: 8MP rear camera with LED Flash, f/2.2 aperture, BSI sensor, Omnivision sensor, camera capable of taking 1080p video recording Front Camera: 2MP front-facing camera which is capable of handling 720P HD video recording Communication: 4G LTE/3G, WiFi 802.11 b/g/n, GPS, Bluetooth 4.0 Battery: 2200mAh battery Other features: GYRO, Gravey, Proximity Compass Size: 5.27 X 2.6 X 0.36 Inches. Weight: 134 g Body and Design This phone has rounded edges which is very much different comparing Redmi 1S, Headphone jack is at the top of the phone, Volume and power button are at the right side. Micro-USB is at the bottom of the phone with Microphone. The speaker is on the left. The phone is very comfortable to hold due to matt finish. The Back cover and battery is replaceable, You can also customize the back cover with colors like Black, Yellow , Pink , Green and White. Display: Redmi 2 has 4.7 Inch display with 720 X 1280 @ 312 PPI with IPS Display, This is higher than Redmi note with 267 PPI , The performance of the display is definitely equal to Xiaomi Note, Mi4, Mi2. The display sharpness is also equal to Note, Mi4 and Mi2. This phone is scratch resistance and responsive Corning Gorilla Glass. Phone has IPS display which gives better viewing angle hence this phone display can be viewed from different angle with greater visibility. To Summarize, Redmi 2 performs well in terms of display with sharp display, better viewing angle and color saturation. Camera: Redmi 2 smartphone has 8 Megapixel camera at rear and 2 Megapixel at the front. The rear camera takes pretty impressive pictures. The rear main camera has five precision lenses which takes fantastic images.? This also supports HDR, Panorama, Voice shutter etc. We were impressed with the camera speed, it is much faster compared to Redmi 1, Note, Mi3, Mi4 but lag in speed of focusing objects which we find it slower. The 2Megapixel camera the front is not that impressive and does it job but not suitable for selfie due to poor quality images. ?Battery: Redmi 2 is packed with slightly larger battery of 2200 mAh capacity which is useful for one day of moderate to heavy usage. The temperature is well controlled even after high usage so you wont find phone heating up. Conclusion: The phone is smooth to operate, it has excellent sharp display, and rear camera is very good along with good battery backup. The only drawback is its limited 1GB RAM which sometimes you may run out of memory if you run high memory intensive apps but generally this is lag and crash free but this is not the this should not turn off our purchase decision since this phone gives real value for money. Pros: LTE Support. Impressive Screen with excellent viewing angle. Decent size with light weight to hold. Price. Cons: 1 GB RAM 2 Megapixel front camera Resembles all other Xiaomi phones.

Netherworld Paperback
by Robert Temple
It is possible to see what will happen to us in the future, or what forces are at work upon us?
The ancients certainly believed this to be the case and so, in "Netherworld", Robert Temple examines and contrasts the traditions and techniques of divination of classical Greece and Rome, and those of ancient China.
In his quest to find out more about the ancients and their beliefs, for the first time in living memory he ventured into the real, physical location of the Oracle of the Dead, the 'hell' of the ancient Greeks as found in "The Odyssey" and "The Aeneid" and, in a vivid and evocative account, describes his first journey down into this eerie, underground complex.
What were the mysteries associated with Delphi and the other oracles of the ancient world?
What other methods did the Greeks and Romans have for foretelling the future?
After a fascinating study to find the answers to these questions, Temple turns to the Chinese oracular syste, the I Ching, which, intriguingly seems to be a genuine intuition and something that, even today, we do not fully appreciate. "Netherworld" is a gripping, and sometimes breathtaking, examination of the prophetic underside of human history and of human attitudes towards fate.

Review by AnnaOok
The author is a cookie, but of the benign variety. The book actually includes some interesting primary source material, especially in the first part about ancient Mediterranean oracles -- the most interesting being the author's own visits to the oracular cave in Baia (Italy). The collection of writings on divination by ancient authors like Pliny (and other, less famous ones) is also interesting.Unfortunately any original conclusions or extrapolations by the author are to be treated as wild speculation, since he seems to lack any ability to approach his sources critically -- or rather, he seems to lose that ability when the extrapolation goes in a direction that he finds fascinating.At some point in the course of the book, I gave up howling and screeching at him every half page and started becoming amused instead, and this did improve the reading experience.The second half of the book is cookier. It starts out with Chinese oracles (bones/tortoise shells and the I Ching), gets entranced with the fact that the I Ching, based on a binary system of whole or broken lines, is -- wait for it -- BINARY!!! But the binary system was only discovered in the West by Leibniz in the 17th century!!! (Not discovered, invented. And binary notation is not the same as binary arithmetic: the I Ching is not binary arithmetic. Sorry Mr Temple -- Ed.)From here he moves on to hexagons, which he seems to find really exciting. After explaining in detail how they are the most economical way of filling a plane, he then proceeds to find it nothing short of miraculous that so many things that need to cover a surface actually and in the real world do so with hexagons. From two-dimensional hexagons he goes on to "economical" solids, which are related to hexagons!!! (And in those cases where they aren't, it is possible to work out hexagons one way or another by combining selected faces. Or at the very least they will be found to contain 60-degree angles somewhere). This all seems to have deep and portentous significance. There's a longish section where every sentence that contains the word "hexagon" seems to end in an exclamation mark.Also notable is the "they also laughed at Hoyle and Wickramasinghe" part, if nothing else as a true piece of cookie bravura. (This is in connection to comets predicting plague and other disasters. According to the author, Hoyle and Wickramasinghe clearly "demonstrated" that viruses come on Earth from space via cometary debris -- which is also the origin of life on Earth -- and so comets did predict plagues. Even so, he kind of forgets to explain about the other disasters, but hey.)In his favour, the author is a kook but not a crook: he comes across as honest and genuinely enthusiastic, which can be endearing and makes the book easier to read -- just a bit lacking in the critical-approach department. In conclusion: the book collects some interesting facts, but does so under wildly speculative theories that really don't stand up, sorry. Worth having a look at if you have an interest in one of the specific areas he touches on. Just don't give it to young and impressionable readers who may themselves lack critical reading skills and may therefore take it too seriously.
