Royal Train - An Underwater Call / The Balcony Compositions
Royal Train - An Underwater Call / The Balcony Compositions
Two more albums here of excellent drone music. Both these albums are great examples of quite minimalistic ambient drone. 'An Underwater Call' is the deeper, quieter of the two where as 'The Balcony Compositions', just released, is much warmer and musical. Fans of both earlier and later Stars Of The Lid will most likely appreciate this music. Drone is not always an easy genre to get right but when its done well it can be very beautiful, relaxing and naturally draws you in. I feel 'The Balcony Compositions' does this particularly well.

Marble coffee table
The Man Coffee Table features a stainless steel frame with a 1,9cm marble table top which offer an elegant contrast to the piece. This style of design provide a simplicity and natural look to the table and will sit well in any interior whether traditional or modern.
The Man furniture series references the 1950's - 1960's Danish furniture design, a period that was inspired by Bauhaus, where simple and clean shapes were the focus. Minimal detailing and stylish clean expression portray this style of design in the Man Series. The charismatic parallel frame and the visible joining of the materials clearly define the construction found in this series. The furniture of the Man series is suitable for open spaces, as well as homely surroundings, where the furniture appears both decorative and functional.

Booktalking "Gifted Grown Ups" by Marylou Kelly Streznewski
Gifted children are considered special education students: smarter than 95% of the population, with an IQ (Intelligence Quotient) of 130 or higher. An IQ of 100 denotes average intelligence. There are also qualitative measures of people's abilities. Howard Gardner conceptualizes people's strengths in terms of multiple intelligences. Gifted adults are also characterized by quick mental speed, sophistication of thought, high levels of sensitivity, drive, and a sense of humor.
Streznewski interviewed 100 adults, ages 18-90 years, with open-ended questions in order to determine how extraordinary abilities affect people's lives. Very bright people are oftentimes considered to be weird and are ostracized by peers who feel threatened by their talents. As kids, they do not feel sufficiently challenged by school. Interestingly enough, the high school dropout rate for gifted kids may be three times as high as those kids of normal intelligence levels.
Gifted adults are frequently bored at work, and they continually seek ever-greater challenges. They have innovative ideas for use in the workplace.
It is estimated that up to 20% of inmates may be gifted due to their marginalization in society and the fact that school does not appeal to them. Certain crimes, such as embezzlement and others, require high levels of intelligence to carry out.
It is difficult for some gifted folks to find mates who have comparable levels of intelligence, and some do not want to retire in their later years because they are filled with such energy for the world.
Gifted Grown Ups: the Mixed Blessings of Extraordinary Potential by Marylou Kelly Streznewski, 1999
This was a fascinating read, which includes enlightening anecdotes and excerpts from interviews with the gifted adults. I devoured this one.

Tour Scotland Video Ancient Priory Church Restenneth Near Forfar
Tour Scotland video of the ancient Priory Church on visit to Restenneth near Forfar, Angus, Scotland. This was a monastic house of Augustinian canons founded by Jedburgh Abbey in the Scottish Borders, with the patronage of King Malcolm IV of Scotland, in 1153. There is also speculation that Restenneth may even have been the Pictish church dedicated to St Peter, mentioned in Bede, built in 710 for Nechtán mac Der Ilei, King of the Picts. Augustinian Restenneth was always a small priory and very dependent on its mother house at Jedburgh. In 1501 there were only two canons. There was an attempt to incorporate it into the Royal Chapel in this year, but this failed to occur, and King James IV of Scotland suggested its incorporation into the archbishopric of St Andrews, Fife. This too evidently did not occur, as priors continue to be on record. The priory was, however, turned into a secular lordship for Thomas Erskine, Viscount Fentoun, in 1606.

30 October 2015
Victoria's best performing arts talent will collaborate with the best from across Asia to present an unprecedented four-month program of Asia-Pacific performing arts in Melbourne in 2017.
Visiting the National Centre of Performing Arts in Beijing, China, Minister for Creative Industries Martin Foley announced $250k for Melbourne's newest major arts event - Asia TOPA: Asia-Pacific Triennial of Performing Arts.
The Victorian Government's contribution to the event will focus on commissioning new works by Victorian arts companies in collaboration with Asian partners, and on engaging a broad cross-section of the community in the triennial.
The first international act on the Asia TOPA bill was announced - the ground breaking Chinese contemporary dance company Tao Ye Dance Theater, a highlight of Arts Centre Melbourne's recent Supersense festival.
Asia TOPA is being developed and presented by a consortium of leading Victorian arts organisations and venues, helmed by Arts Centre Melbourne. The program will be concentrated around the Southbank Arts Precinct with consortium partners including The Australian Ballet, ACCA, Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, Melbourne Theatre Company, Chunky Move, Malthouse Theatre, Melbourne Recital Centre, NGV, and the VCA, as well as ACMI, Federation Square, Museum Victoria and State Library Victoria. Asia TOPA will partner with a wide range of Victoria's independent artists and companies – many of whom have a strong track record and reputation across the Asia-Pacific region.
Minister Foley is in China with a high-level delegation of Victorian Creative Industries leaders, from across the arts, screen and design sectors. The visit follows the recent signing of a Cultural Partnership Agreement between Victoria and China, opening the doors for Victoria's creative industries to forge new opportunities with Australia's biggest trading partner.
Asia TOPA was initiated by the Sidney Myer Fund in partnership with
Arts Centre Melbourne which received a $2m philanthropic grant to
establish the event.

At just 22 years old, Jordan Lyles had once been regarded as the Houston Astros' top prospect and one of the top 50 in the game headed into 2011, according to Baseball America.
The righty has the upside to one day be a front-line starter for this club, and being that the 2013 Astros is a team with not much else other than upside to play for, you'd think Lyles would be a lock to be give a chance to expand on his 25-start season in 2012, yes?
Apparently not, according to the team's new manager Bo Porter.
Well, at least, not necessarily. See, even on an Astros rotation that's made up of a mish-mash of former prospects, the team's home-grown top prospect is anything but a lock this season. In fact, there are only two pitchers on the team who Porter considers to have guaranteed spots on the starting five: Lucas Harrell, who was the team's best pitcher in 2012, and Bud Norris, who has led the team in strikeouts over the last three seasons.
Now, your initial idea of a Harrell-led rotation might be something like this:
But looking a little closer at players who round it out, you'll see why Porter is unwilling to give Lyles the complete benefit of the doubt, even if he will have an inside track.
There's the fact that the young right-hander struggled in the role last season, posting a disappointing 5.09/1.40 ERA/WHIP with a .279 BAA. The 2.36 K/BB is certainly a positive note, but his stuff wasn't fooling anyone (6.9 SwStr percentage) and he was giving up far too many homers 1.27 K/9 to boot.
Lyles' 4.10 xFIP suggests that he could be better and he did show a rather dramatic home/road split with (4.30 ERA, 0.96 HR/9 at home vs. 6.00 ERA, 1.64 HR/9 on the road), but there's still a lot of work to be done for him to become a consistent starter.
Besides, if he doesn't pan out, Porter and the Astros have no shortage of options to choose from as far as prospects go. There's Jarred Cosart, who was the team's top pitching prospect coming into 2012 and who tore through two levels of the minors last season. There's also Phil Humber, who might be the most unlikely pitcher to throw a perfect game yet.
They're joined by former Cleveland Indians top pitching prospect Alex White as well as a couple of others who fit a similar profile with lower upside.
Point being, there are three spots in the rotation with more than enough former-or-current prospects to fill them and Lyles is young enough that the team could conceivably start him in AAA for more seasoning, even though they don't have much to lose by giving him a job in the bigs.
Or, it's more likely a way for Porter to instill some sense of competition in this young squad and in players like Lyles. Whether it'll work or not remains to be seen, but you'd imagine the he'd have to be more motivated, knowing that his place isn't certain.

Unemployment tax to decline in 2005
Washington businesses will see their unemployment tax shrink slightly next year, the result of an overhaul of the unemployment-tax laws passed during the 2003 legislative session.

Effective Jan. 1, unemployment taxes will be based on an employer's history of layoffs or retention.
The first tax payments under the new rate are due April 30.

Law firm closing Hong Kong branch
Seattle-based law firm Perkins Coie will shut its Hong Kong office as of March 31, firm spokesman Mark Usellis said.

Perkins Coie's Hong Kong office, which had opened in 1992, has 15 attorneys: six partners and nine salaried lawyers, called associates. The lawyers will be leaving the firm, Usellis said.
The branch's main activities included representing companies looking to invest in China, doing general Asian corporate work and helping companies list on the Hong Kong stock exchange.

Getty said it expects revenue in 2005 to rise between 12 and 14 percent to a range between $690 million and $700 million.

U.S. sales increase for 20th month in row
McDonald's yesterday reported a solid 4.2 percent gain in worldwide comparable sales for November and racked up a 20th straight monthly increase for its U.S. business.
The 7.1 percent increase at U.S. restaurants open more than a year left sales in McDonald's domestic business up nearly 10 percent for the year over the same 11-month period in 2003. Total sales in the U.S. rose by 7.6 percent in November.
The U.S. sales gain was down from last November's 10.2 percent, largely because that number was matched up against a 2002 period when McDonald's was mired in a slump. Since then, the company has boosted sales by adding pricier new menu items such as entree salads and chicken strips, focusing more on basic restaurant operations and keeping more outlets open overnight.
McDonald's shares rose 28 cents to close at $31.78 yesterday their highest closing price since January 2001.
America West
No bidding war for bankrupt ATA
America West Airlines backed away yesterday from a potential bidding war for bankrupt ATA Airlines, paving the way for AirTran to take over ATA operations.
The announcement came the night before ATA Airlines was to submit plans for restructuring under Chapter 11 bankruptcy.
America West spokesman Carlos Bertolini said the bid fell apart because the airlines couldn't come up with acceptable lease terms on enough of ATA's aircraft to make the deal worthwhile.

This Weekend's Weather: A Break in the Cold Snap ({{commentsTotal}})
After a week in which Tallinn saw its most frigid daytime high of the season (-14 C on Thursday), some relief is in sight, with temperatures around the country expected to be more bearable in the coming days.
The end of the double-digit negatives, during the day at least, will come on Saturday thanks to a low-pressure system that will also bring plenty of snow, according to the Meteorology and Hydrology Institute. Daytime readings are expected to be -8 to -3 C, with moderate winds in most areas and strong winds on the coasts. By night, the mercury should drop to -11 to -5 C.
Sometime overnight, the remaining snow clouds, in this case north Estonia, should clear up, leading to a mostly precipitation-free Sunday. Winds are expected to be moderate. Temperatures are slated to range from -6 to -2 C, with the western islands seeing the warmest conditions. After dark, readings are expected to be -16 to -10 C in most areas of the country, and -8 to -2 C on the islands and in the northwest.
Longer-term forecasts show daytime temperatures staying in similar single-digit ranges through Thursday.
WIth February 10 the day of reckoning on whether the Tartu ski marathon will go ahead later in the month, forecasters are currently bearish on its chances, saying that this weekend's snow will only amount to 1-3 cm in south central Estonia and Monday will bring only a dusting at best. That would be far from the amount needed to allow the race to take place. Thus all bets are being placed on how the next low pressure system, expected around February 8-9, will track, forecaster Taimi Paljak told uudised.err.ee today.

The Law sets up a series of basic principles: learning outcomes-focused learning, promotion of the improvement of quality, protection of the education beneficiaries (first of all the students), and the importance given to the internal evaluation process (self-assessment) of providers. Since 2006, the most significant developments on quality assurance in Romanian IVET include:
The National Quality Assurance Framework in IVET has been developed on the basis of the EQARF/EQAVET, in terms of its principles, methodology and instruments. In CVET, the mechanism for QA is currently being developed.

Oil prices soared Thursday as the dollar sank against the euro after Europe's crucial debt crisis deal and the markets welcomed better-than-expected economic growth in top consumer the United States.
New York's main oil contract, light sweet crude for delivery in December, jumped $2.93 to $93.14 a barrel.
Brent North Sea crude for December delivery gained $3.02 to $111.93.
Europe's leaders said came to the euro's rescue Thursday with a deal on a 1.0-trillion-euro bailout fund and for banks to share the pain of the debt crisis.
The deal will see holders of Greek bonds accept a 50-percent loss on their investment -- more than double the amount they agreed in July -- slashing 100 billion euros from the 350 billion euros owed by Greece.
In reaction, the European single currency leapt above $1.41 for the first time in seven weeks. At 1610 GMT, the euro hit $1.4197 -- the highest level since early September.
"The agreement ... spread encouraging signs across the markets, giving strong upside momentum to the euro against the dollar and pushing crude oil prices higher," said Sucden oil analyst Myrto Sokou.
"It seems that the market found some relief after all the uncertainty and nervous trading conditions in the last few weeks," she told AFP.
A weaker US currency makes dollar-priced oil cheaper for buyers using stronger currencies. That tends to stimulate oil demand and prices.
After days of talks and two successive summits, EU president Herman Van Rompuy emerged in the early hours saying: "We took important decisions."
With the deal reached, IMF chief Christine Lagarde welcomed "substantial progress" but European Central Bank chief Jean-Claude Trichet warned that "all of this now requires a lot of work and a lot of quick work."
Oil won more support after data showed Thursday that the US economy grew 2.5 percent in the third quarter, boosted by consumer and government spending in the world's biggest oil-consuming nation.
The rate of growth was higher than in the second quarter and above expectations of 2.3 percent.
Global markets have been plagued by the eurozone debt crisis for months amid concern that the debacle could push the world economy into another vicious recession -- which would slash demand for oil.
Prices slumped Wednesday as dealers digested fresh signs of weakening US energy demand and awaited the outcome of the Brussels summit.
The market sold off after the US crude oil inventories increased by a much bigger-than-expected 4.7 million barrels in the week ending October 21.
The weekly report suggested weakening US demand, with forecasts for a much smaller increase of 400,000 barrels.

Reports of QPR's finer performances rarely pass without mention of Adel Taarabt.
The Moroccan international has been the star of their season and every bit the stellar signing Neil Warnock appeared to have pulled off when he tempted him from Tottenham Hotspur in August for a fee which could rise to 1m - an affordable investment for a wealthy club and a bargain if they enter the Premier League in May.
When Spurs spent 3m to sign him from Lens in 2007, comparisons were drawn with Zinedine Zidane and Harry Redknapp described his talent as "frightening". He has scored nine goals this season.

text: Fu Yang, spokeswoman for China's annual parliament session the National People's Congress , gave the "rough" figure and said it was in line with overall spending growth. A formal announcement will be made on Thursday when the NPC opens. China has seen several years of double-digit defence spending increases. It is the world's second-highest military spender, but remains far behind the US. Last year, China's defence spending rose 12.2% to $132bn (£86bn). In comparison, for the fiscal year 2016 US President Barack Obama has requested a budget of $586bn. China says the spending is required to modernise the People's Liberation Army – the world's largest standing military.

Quote:fwiw, other makers AWD are not full mechanical with Torsen, rather viscous couplings (Subaru),
Quote:From its launch, the WRX STI has been equipped with one of the most advanced and most performance-directed All-Wheel Drive systems on the market, regardless of vehicle segment. The Driver Control Center Differential (DCCD) Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system uses a planetary-type center differential to provide a 41:59 torque split, with automatic and manual differential modes.Center differential lock-up is controlled by both a mechanical limited-slip type differential and an electronically controlled limited-slip differential. The mechanical limited-slip differential activates and operates initially in response to changes in engine torque, improving overall vehicle stability when accelerating or decelerating. In automatic mode, the electronic limited-slip differential controls the differential lock-up by evaluating the amount of lock-up in the mechanical limited-slip. The total amount of lock-up is based on the combination of both differentials. A steering sensor input improves torque transfer response by more accurately relaying the cars cornering situation.Set in automatic mode, the DCCD system can vary the torque distribution ratio as needed in response to vehicle acceleration, deceleration, steering angle, cornering force and wheel slippage.In manual mode, DCCD allows the driver to select center differential lock-up to optimize All-Wheel Drive performance for varying driving conditions. The driver first selects manual mode with a console-mounted button and then turns a thumbwheel on the center console to select from among six levels of lock-up. Increasing the locking factor keeps more power at the front wheels (max. 50:50 torque split with 100 percent lock-up selected), which the driver might want in certain driving conditions or on particular road surfaces.A helical-type limited-slip front differential and Torsen® limited-slip rear differential help to optimize power distribution side-to-side, helping to prevent the inside wheels from slipping during cornering.

Al-Qaeda-linked militants in Syria have destroyed a religious shrine in a village in the country's north and kidnapped dozens of its inhabitants.
Militants from the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) attacked the village of Tel Marouf, located near the city of Qamishli, and burned houses along with a Sufi shrine belonging to Sheikh Khaznawi.
Tel Marouf village is mostly inhabited by Kurdish people.
The militants also kidnapped around 50 residents of the village, including some women and children.
The attack came as the Syrian government forces made more advances against opposition fighters on Sunday, inflicting heavy losses on them in Aleppo and Homs.
A number of the militants from the al-Qaeda linked al-Nusra Front were reportedly killed in Syrian army's operations in Rastan city in Homs.
In Aleppo, scores of militants were also killed in clashes with the Syrian government forces.
The Syrian army has escalated its mop-up operations against the militant groups across the country.
Syria has been the scene of deadly violence since March 2011. Over 130,000 people have reportedly been killed and millions displaced due to the turmoil.
The Western powers and their regional allies - especially Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey - have been supporting the militants operating inside Syria.

Lamebrain Express Vexation with New Single "Repulse" + Cassette Tape Release Will Be Out During Record Store Day 2017
Are you fed up with our country's heated up political situation right now? Do you feel that the governor election in Jakarta is overblown by major media? If the answer is yes, then Lamebrain feel the same way as you do. A new single called "Repulse" sees the rock band from Bandung expressing their frustration and annoyance of the current situation in Indonesia. As the days go by, our citizens are not getting any wiser or smarter and they are easily swayed and provoked by the news spread through the media and social media. "Repulse" will be released shortly and different from their previous releases which are thick with blues-rock ambience, this single is heavy with progressive chords. It is aggressive right from the start, and the song is later toned down when the vocal comes in with its echoing effect. The song was produced by Adhit Android, the bassist of Helmproyek who is also known as an excellent sound engineer so the quality of "Repulse" should not be doubted.
As a band, Lamebrain also explore the songwriting process in this single so it results in a better diction and rhymes. The song from Lamebrain is no longer released under Dermaga Records, instead they release it independently. "Repulse" will be repressed on a cassette tape format and revealed during Record Store Day 2017. Besides this single, Lamebrain also include another song called "Ace Combat" which is no less aggressive on the tape. The digital format will follow up after the physical format is launched. An event held during RSD 2017 at Brick and Barell will become the first time Lamebrain perform this single and the cassette tapes will be sold there as well. Listen to the preview of "Repulse" on the link below and buy the records once it is out.

To James Steele and Charles Summers [1]
Gentlemen Feb. 12th. 1857
Yours of the 10th. covering a claim of Mr. D. A. Morrison against the Illinois Central Railroad Company is received. I have been in the regular retainer of the Co. for two or three years; but I expect they do not wish to retain me any longer. [2] The road not passing this point, there is no one here for me to present the claim to.
I have concluded to say to you, that I am going to Chicago, if nothing prevents, on the 21st. Inst. and I will then ascertain whether they discharge me; & if they do, as I expect, I will attend to your business & write you. If this is satisfactory, let it so stand---if not write me at once. Yours truly A. LINCOLN
[1] ALS, IHi. James Steele and Charles Summers were law partners at Paris, Illinois.
[2] Lincoln was bringing suit against the Illinois Central for his $5,000 fee for defending the railroad in the McLean County tax case. His services were not, however, discontinued, and when the case of Morrison v. the Illinois Central, involving the right of the railroad to restrict its liability as a common carrier, reached the Supreme Court, Lincoln and Orlando B. Ficklin won the case for the Illinois Central.

Miracles: Illusion vs Reality
The Gospel of John records several unique "miraculous signs" that the other three Gospels do not have. These powerful encounters often leave us scratching our heads about what we have just witnessed - as they did in their original context, too. Miracle stories provide us opportunities to explore the depth of our understandings of who Jesus is, who we are, and how God chooses to enter into our reality.
Join us for this 3 week exploration of some well-known miracle stories as we prepare our hearts for Easter!

How to Dress for Your Body Shape
For many, finding the right pair of pants is intimidating. There are so many cuts and styles to choose from. Knowing your body type and which cuts and styles look best on your shape will make finding that perfect pair of pants so much easier. Use a mirror to decide your shape so you can dress to flatter your body type.
How to Roll Up the Sleeves on a Dress Shirt
Rolling up your shirt sleeves may seem like an easy task, but there are several ways to do it to get different effects. Rolling your sleeves a certain way can give you a casual look, a tailored and classic look or I'm-ready-to-work look. You'll want to adjust your technique to mirror your environment and style. You don't want to arrive at the office looking like you're about to head to the bar, after all.
Tips for Finding the Right Athletic Socks
Choosing the wrong sock can be agony during a workout. Bunching, rubbing and sagging can not only ruin your concentration, it can damage the skin on your feet. On the other hand, the right sock can prevent blisters, keep your feet nice and dry and provide warmth on chilly days. What athletic sock you choose depends on personal preferences and exercises you do.

France Olympic Basketball Team: 2012 Roster Predictions and AnalysisApril 29, 2012
France Olympic Basketball Team: 2012 Roster Predictions and Analysis
The France Olympic basketball team will be looking to capture their first ever gold medal when they head to London for their first Olympic games since 2000.
This team may not be ranked that highly, but you definitely can't sleep on a team with so much NBA talent.
This squad also has it's fair share of international talent that really rounds out this roster and makes it one of the deepest in the tournament.
Here are my predictions and analysis for how the team from France will fare during the 2012 Summer Olympics.
Roster Rundown
The official roster for the France National Team according to the FIBA website is:
—Andrew Albicy (PG, 5'10", Paris Levallois, France)
—Nicolas Batum (SF, 6'8", Portland Trail Blazers, U.S.A.)
—Nando De Colo (SG, 6'5", Valencia, Spain)
—Boris Diaw (PF, 6'8", San Antonio Spurs, U.S.A.)
—Antoine Diot (SG, 6'4", Le Mans Sarthe Basket, France)
—Mickael Gelabale (SF, 6'7", Asvel Lyon-Villeurbanne, France)
—Charles Kahudi (F, 6'6", Le Mans, France)
—Ian Mahinmi (C, 6'11", Dallas Mavericks, U.S.A.)
—Joakim Noah (C, 6'11", Chicago Bulls, U.S.A.)
—Tony Parker (PG, 6'2", San Antonio Spurs, U.S.A.)
—Florent Pietrus (PF, 6'8", Valencia Basket Club, Spain)
—Kevin Seraphin (C, 6'9", Washington Wizards, U.S.A.)
—Steed Tchicamboud (SG, 6'4", ES Chalon-Sur-Saône, France)
—Ali Traore (PF, 6'10", Lokomotiv Kouban-Krasnodar, Russia)
—Ronny Turiaf (C, 6'10", Miami Heat, U.S.A.)
The Stars
This France team has an abundance of NBA talent on the roster, seven players to be exact:
—Tony Parker: Starting point guard who leads the team in points and assists. In reality France will only go as far as Parker takes them.
—Joakim Noah: Starting center who is the only real rebounder in the starting lineup. He is also the only interior defender France has that can really make an impact, so they definitely need him to play incredible to win it all.
—Nicolas Batum: Even though he's only 23 years old, Batum has been playing with the team from France for eight years. He was MVP when France won the U18 European Championship back in 2006 and will be looking to help his team earn gold once again.
—Boris Diaw: At one point Diaw was a double-digit scorer for France, but he is clearly coming to the end of his career. This will most likely be his last chance to earn an Olympic medal so expect him to be playing at his best.
—Kevin Seraphin: Seraphin made his debut with the France national team last year while they were qualifying and averaged just over five points and two rebounds in only 10 minutes per game.
—Ian Mahinmi: Out of the seven NBA players on France, four of them are centers. There just won't be many available minutes for Mahinmi this year unless one of them goes down with an injury.
—Ronny Turiaf: He only played in one game during France's qualifying after breaking his hand during their opening game. Turiaf isn't much of a scorer, but is definitely the team's second best rebounder.
Projected Starters: Tony Parker, Nicolas Batum
Projected Reserves: Nando De Colo, Andrew Albicy
Quick Hits:
—Tony Parker has been the leader of this team since 2001, even though he has never participated in the Olympics. During the last five tournaments France has been in, Parker has averaged at least 18 points per game. He may have a long playoff run with the Spurs still ahead of him, but you know he will be excited to continue his dominance in his first Olympics.
—Nicolas Batum has been an efficient scorer for the France National team ever since he joined back in 2009. He's averaged double figures in every tournament, his highest total of 13.8 ppg coming in the Olympic qualifiers last year. Besides team U.S.A., Parker and Batum probably make up the best starting backcourt in the entire tournament.
—Nando De Colo played more minutes off the bench for France than any other player during their qualifying. He was also tied for the most points during the tournament for any player on the team who didn't start.
—Andrew Albicy and Steed Tchicamboud will both be used to backup TP. Neither of them got any significant minutes in the qualifying though, as each of them played over 15 minutes in only one game.
By the Numbers:
22.1—Tony Parker's points per game average that earned him the scoring title at the 2011 FIBA Europe Championship
Projected Starters: Mickael Gelabale, Boris Diaw
Projected Reserves: Florent Pietrus, Ali Traore
Quick Hits:
—Boris Diaw has been a member of the France National team since 2003. His numbers have declined since he first joined the team, but he is still starting for them now 10 years later. Diaw is a power forward who likes to play away from the basket so he stretches the floor for his team.
—Mickael Gelabale is the only starter on the team not currently in the NBA. He has had a short stint with the Seattle Supersonics before, but that was back from 2006-2008. Gelabale played significant minutes for France during their qualifying until he injured his ankle and only played in 26 minutes over the next five games.
—Florent Pietrus is not a scorer and plays only because of his rebounding and defense. He actually had more rebounds than points during the team's 11 game qualifying. Pietrus played 16 minutes per game during the European Championships this year and took only 16 shots the whole tournament combined.
—Ali Traore only played around 11 minutes per game last tournament, but was a very efficient scorer when he was in. He shot 54.4 percent from the field, which was the highest on the team out of the players who took at least 50 shots.
By the Numbers:
63.6—Amazing three-point percentage for Gelabale during the 2011 FIBA Europe Championshp.
Projected Starter: Joakim Noah
Projected Reserves: Kevin Seraphin, Ian Mahinmi
Quick Hits:
—Joakim Noah has a lot of work ahead of him now that Derrick Rose has torn his ACL and will miss the remainder of the NBA playoffs. As I stated before, he is the only player on the team who has the ability to be a real dominant inside presence. Noah averaged a very respectable nine points and eight rebounds per game during the qualifiers, but France is going to need much more out of him if they want a chance at winning a gold medal.
—Kevin Seraphin first joined the National team last year during the 2011 London Invitational Tournament. The 22 year old averaged a very solid 5.6 points and 2.6 rebounds per game in only 13 minutes. After Noah, Seraphin is probably the team's second best interior defender, so I expect to see both of them on the floor together versus bigger lineups.
—Ian Mahinmi hasn't played significant minutes with France since he was on the U18 team and it appears these Olympics will be more of the same. It is unsure whether he or Ronny Turiaf will be the team's third center, so don't expect to see much of Mahinmi this tournament unless another player on the team suffers an injury.
By the Numbers:
10—Difference between Noah's points and rebounds during the 2011 FIBA European Championship (90 points-80 rebounds).
Best Case Scenario
France dominates in the Preliminary Round and enters the Quarterfinals as a one or two-seed.
Tony Parker continues his dominant play and leads all players in scoring, just like he did at the European Championships to help France qualify for the Olympics.
After dominating their Quarterfinals game, France meets Spain in the Semifinals, the team who last defeated them. Parker and Noah get their redemption and secure that they will be bringing home a medal this year.
Of course they will then meet team U.S.A. in the gold medal game. After a hard fought battle that sees numerous lead changes, France pulls away to earn the narrow victory and their first ever Olympic gold medal.
Worst Case Scenario
Tony Parker leads the San Antonio Spurs to the NBA Finals, but falls short in the end. He is physically and emotionally drained from the grueling shortened season and just doesn't perform during the Olympics.
Without Parker's effective ball distribution, France's bigs can't get the ball in scoring opportunities. They turn into a three-point shooting team, but fail to get hot as a team on any given night.
To make things worse, France gets paired up with U.S.A. and Spain in the Preliminary round. They lose four out of the five games and once again embarrass the country of France during the Olympics.
France will finish...
Why Third?
Even though France is ranked 12 in the FIBA World Rankings, I think they will be competing for a medal by the end of the tournament.
Tony Parker is playing out of his mind right now in the NBA, with the toughest competition in the world, so there's no reason to believe his dominant play won't continue during the Olympics. He will most likely score close to 20 points per game, but will probably fall short of winning the scoring title.
Ultimately, France will come in third and take home the bronze medal since there are two teams that they won't be able to overcome.
The first one is team U.S.A. I know France has their fair share of NBA talent, but Tony Parker and Joakim Noah are the only two who would even have a chance of seeing any minutes if they were with the U.S.A. France has never defeated U.S.A. in the Olympics and that streak will continue if they meet up this year.
The other team France would have trouble defeating is Spain. Their last meeting was just a few months ago when Spain defeated the French team 98-85. France just doesn't have the big men to defend Spain's bigs. Besides the two Gasol brothers, Spain now has Serge Ibaka on their squad who may be the most dominant inside presence of them all.
After losing to either Spain or U.S.A. in the Semifinals, France should be the favorite in the bronze medal game, regardless of who they play. They should win this game and take home the first Olympic medal since 2000.

Comments about Peter Sculthorpe:
Written in a way that makes classical music relevant and accessible to everyday people. Some sections are a bit technical (easily skipped over without missing the point) but would be brilliant for students of music.
I loved the insights into Australian culture and society, as shown through its music. Really enlightening.

Anywhere in Northern Virginia where I could get a "ploughman's lunch", or something very like it?
I found this British meal referenced onlne - for those who don't know, it's a "cold snack or meal, comprising at a minimum a thick piece of cheese (usually Cheddar, Stilton, or other local cheese), pickle (often Branston Pickle, sometimes piccalilli and/or pickled onions), crusty bread, and butter."
Sounds good to me!

What Should You Consider When Buying a House at 2510:39 PM
I always wanted to have my own house. I want to build my home or buy an apartment. Its my dream to have my own house at the early age. My pa...
I always wanted to have my own house. I want to build my home or buy an apartment. Its my dream to have my own house at the early age. My parents flipped houses
while I was growing up and I like creating spaces and using my hands,
plus it always sounded like a good investment. I graduated college at
21 and decided my next goal was to buy a house by 25. So, after
graduation, I moved back home to Portland to live with my mom.
What Should You Consider When Buying a House at 25 (or any age for that matter)?What do you NEED in a house?
My list of needs:
- Location – It needed to be in Portland, close to public transportation and near a particular college, just in case I wanted to turn my future home into a future rental property.
- Size – A minimum of three bedrooms. My younger brother was graduating from college soon, and I wanted to have space for him to live with me and either have a guest room or another roommate.
- Driveway – City parking is a pain. If I'm going to live here, I want to keep my hardly-used car in its own space. Plus, I needed somewhere off the curb to store my camper. I wasn't going to own a home and pay rent to keep it somewhere else.
- Affordable – I had a tight budget and wanted to stay within it. I used the "Say Yes to the Dress" motto with my realtor. "If I can only afford a $1,000 wedding dress, don't put me in a $10,000 wedding dress. I know it will look better, but it only gets my hopes up." Obviously, a more expensive house will be better, that is why they cost more!
- Forever – I wanted a house I could live in forever, from roommate to babies to retirement. Or something I could rent out if I choose to move to China for some reason. Not a starter home.
Mine was my younger brother's graduation, June 2015.
I put 20 percent down in order to avoid paying private mortgage insurance (PMI) or needing a co-signer on my loan. Things have changed in the last couple of years that have made it harder for young people to qualify for a mortgage. I had okay credit, but not enough history. Make sure you have a good credit score and consider saving more for a down payment. Also, since I use Adaptu, I was able to keep a close eye on my monthly spending while I was saving up for my dream house. This motivated me to cut costs whenever possible. Plus, now I can track my mortgage payments and property value through Adaptu.
I bought my dream house in March 2016, six months into my 25th year and three months before my brother graduated. That was just enough time to close and get the pipes working so we had running water when I moved in.
What did you consider when buying your first home? What do you wish you would have considered?

Aishwarya wears a headgear similar to Kangna at Cannes
Still to shed some of her post-pregnancy weight, we believe Ash would have spent many a moment deciding on her red carpet wardrobe for the prestigious event.
Dressed in a gorgeous black Sabyasachi saree, Ash looked elegant and classy. But she perhaps forgot to remember that B-Town has paraded that conspicuous headgear before. Kangna Ranaut wore a strikingly similar headband by Sabya at Riteish Deshmukh and Genelia D'Souza's wedding more than a year ago.

Best care for everyone
We currently employ 77 apprentices and together in 17 different roles.
Gloucestershire Hospital's Head of Lifelong Learning Lucy Blandford explains:
"Good quality education and development are fundamental to providing are services and in particular, to continually improving the experience of patients. At Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust we are committed to providing education, training and development that enable us to deliver safe, dignified and compassionate care.
"In the past year, 83% of our apprentice Healthcare Assistants secured employment at either our Trust or elsewhere. Staff progression and access to further relevant learning is important for our Organisation and our apprentices across different job roles and different apprenticeship frameworks have secured employment and progressed to higher level apprenticeship qualifications".
Liam Southgate is on his Level 3 Apprenticeship at Little Oaks Nursery at Gloucestershire Royal Hospital. Last year he completed his first year at Little Oaks and whilst undertaking this, he won Apprentice of the Year at the Gloucestershire Media Awards. He said he would encourage other young people to consider apprenticeships at Gloucestershire Hospitals:
"Compared to university it is a lot more practical. With my apprenticeship, as soon as I learn the theory, I can put it into practice straight away and this makes it stick; plus you are earning money, which at the end of the day always helps. My colleagues have been really supportive and are always available to talk. My apprenticeship has opened up completely new career options".
Professional Education Administrator and former apprentice Ryan Brunsdon has been with the Trust since 2013 and has now completed his Level 3 Business and Admin qualification and is currently studying for his Level
3 teaching qualification. He has now secured permanent employment and is planning to undertake a Level 4 qualification over the next two years, so is a really good example of how our apprentices can 'rise to the top.'
Ryan explains why he would recommend an apprenticeship at Gloucestershire Hospitals:
"My apprenticeship has allowed me the working/learning balance that I needed for my progression and development. It has given me a variety of opportunities that I did not think I would have at such an early age of my career. I strongly advise anyone to consider doing an apprenticeship."
At the Health Education England South West Star Awards (held on 15th March 2016) our Lifelong Learning Apprentice Jack Mills won Intermediate Apprentice of the Year.
We are particularly proud of Jack who started with us on a traineeship programme with the Lifelong Lea-
rning Department (A traineeship is an opportunity for young people to gain skills and secure valuable work experience). The team were impressed by Jack's commitment to his work experience placement and offered him a Level 2 Business Administration apprenticeship - so he really is a worthy winner!
Meanwhile, would also like to take the opportunity to congratulate our apprentices Sarah Jayne Hooper and Chevonne Smith who were also shortlisted for awards, as well as our Leadership and Development Team's Michelle Bevan and Nick Oxlade and Lucy Mathieson.

Who can attend The Treece Advantage Football Combines?
The Treece Advantage Football Combines are a new, cutting-edge series of elite combines and camps for athletes that are serious about getting on track to be recruited and want to improve their position-based skills. The events are geared toward current 8th-12th grade high school athletes. The camps will also feature 7 on 7 tournaments.What happens at The Treece Advantage Football Combines?
Athletes will arrive at The Treece Advantage Football Combine and check in. They will receive their camp shirt, and have their photo taken before heading to the field to stretch. The athletes will then be led through a dynamic warm-up, and will do a few short position-specific drills (QB's, RB's, WR/TE's, OL's, DL's, LB's and DB's) with staff members to get acclimated to coaches and field conditions. Next, the athletes will be broken up into groups based on their position and rotate at combine stations to be measured. There will be a break for lunch which will be provided by The Treece Advantage. After lunch, athletes will be led through another dynamic warm-up, with a few short position-specific drills before beginning one-on-ones. The one-on-ones are the main event of the camp where WR's go against DB's, RB's go against LB's and OL's will battle DL's in a 'big-man' challenge. QB's will alternate throwing to WR's and RB's at different times with various routes. During these drills, The Treece Advantage will be filming athletes in their individual skills to be uploaded to their personal recruiting profile.
Which tests will be captured during The Treece Advantage Football Combines?
The Treece Advantage Football Combines will test the 40-yard dash, 5-10-5 Shuttle, 3 Cone Drill, and Vertical Jump. These drills are typical of other combines and what college coaches expect to see. Athletes will be able to view their results and compare against athletes in their region.
Who runs The Treece Advantage Football Combines?
The Treece Advantage Combines are run by a highly talented coaching staff, all of whom boast some of the most respected names and coaching experience in the industry. Our coaches have played Division I football and understand what is required to be granted and then maintain scholarship status.
What is the cost to attend The Treece Advantage Football Combines?
The Treece Advantage Combines are 2-Day events held on Saturday and Sunday, $175 per participant. If you register before February 15th you can use promo code: TREECE to receive $25 off registration.
Can I make a deposit to pay for camp?
We do not take deposits for camps or combines. We offer convenient online payment processing and accept all major credit cards. Payment is due in full upon registration. Once registration is processed, athletes will receive information about the camp and other camp opportunities.
Do you allow "walkup" registrants?
We do accept walk-up registrants; however an additional administrative fee of $30.00 will be assessed, so we encourage online registration.
What forms are required to be filled out?
When does online camp registration close?
Online registration will close one week before the camp date.
Is there a limit on the number of campers at each session?
Yes. Our goal is to provide an atmosphere that is instructional, very competitive and measures the athlete's abilities. We will be videoing position-based skills so we need to set a limit on the number of participants at each session. Athletes are advised to sign up as early as possible in order to guarantee a spot. Spots will sell out quickly so make sure to register well in advance.
What does The Treece Advantage Combine fee include?
Each participant will be tested in a combine format. Each athlete will also receive a camp shirt to wear during that day and The Treece Advantage will provide hydration. Prospects will have to provide their own transportation to and from the camp. Other travel costs such as airfare and hotel are not covered.
Do you offer group discounts?
Yes. The Treece Advantage is a private company and is not affiliated with any college or university. We are able to offer group or team discounts. Please "contact us" to inquire about the various discounts we can offer based on the total number of participants.
What is the refund policy of The Treece Advantage Football Combine?
You must submit your refund request through The Treece Advantage's "contact us" form, including the participant's name, date and total refund amount. Refund requests must be made within 10 days prior to the event or refund will not be given. No refunds will be provided for participants who become injured, sick, or have transportation issues the day of the camp.
What are the player benefits for attending The Treece Advantage Football Combine?
Players participating in The Treece Advantage Football Combine will be given the chance to earn national exposure by competing against other top athletes in that camp's region. Individual position skills video will be filmed and athletes will learn what it takes to compete at a high level, compare their abilities against others and walk away with everything they need to begin their recruiting journey. The Treece Advantage Football Combine is a great way to improve overall position technique, and earn recognition for top performances in each position.
What should athletes bring to the camp?
Players participating in The Treece Advantage Football Combines will need to bring a pair of cleats, court shoes a mouth guard and a pair of extra socks. Lunch is at the athletes expense and hydration will be provided during the camp at a cost but players are encouraged to bring their own snack/energy bar just in case.
Will you have medical training staff on location?
Yes. Fully qualified medical training staff personnel will be on site. In the event of a more serious injury, there are major hospitals located within 5 miles of the camps.
What happens in the event of inclement weather?
Safety is our #1 priority. We must remain indoors until all clear. We ask athletes to bring indoor surface sneakers as a precaution in case The Treece Advantage Football Combine has to move indoors.
If a player is already being recruited, should they still attend the camp?
Yes, The Treece Advantage Football Combines are not just another camp or combine. Athletes get tested, get filmed and receive an online recruiting profile. In addition athletes receive high-level coaching during position drills and have some serious fun with one-on-one competition. The athlete's online recruiting profile not only houses their combine results and skills videos but allow them to access a college coach's database. Simply put this three-part combination gives athlete's even greater exposure, opportunity and gives them empowerment on being recruited.
What level of competition should a player expect at the camp?
Players at The Treece Advantage Football Combine should expect to go against other top players from their region. The Treece Advantage will make every effort to split athletes up by age and athletic abilities so athletes are able to showcase their true potential to the fullest extent.
Would a poor time performance during the combine hurt my ability to be recruited?
Not every athlete can be listed on some national top 100 website. Besides that, those top lists only make up a very small percentage of total athletes and are compiled through self-promotion, and submission of a player application forms. Athletes and parents often have high expectations on results and need to understand these metrics are used as a benchmark giving the athlete a comparison to other athletes. This metric will also give athletes a baseline to define a goal to work against to improve as they progress throughout their high school career.
What if I think I made too many mistakes in my skills video, will it hurt being recruited?
No, because not every athlete is perfect and can perform mistake free. College coaches are trained to see good technique even through a miss step or lapse in technique. Having a video true that includes a few athletic mistakes allows college coaches to more effectively see an athlete's true athletic potential. College coaches do not want to see another perfect highlight reel to the beat of the athlete's favorite track.
Are parents allowed to watch The Treece Advantage Football Combines?
Yes. However, due to insurance reasons, it is mandatory that all non-participants remain in the stands or parent designated area. During The Treece Advantage Combines athletes may feel extra pressure to perform therefore we ask parents to be encouraging and refrain from giving constructive feedback on their performance.
