The Dance of Life: The Other Dimension of TimeIn his pioneering work The Hidden Dimension, Edward T. Hall spoke of different cultures' concepts of space. Now The Dance of Life reveals the ways in which individuals in a culture are tied together by invisible threads of rhythm and yet isolated from each other by hidden walls of time. Hall shows how time is an organizer of activities, a synthesizer and integrator, and a special language that reveals how we really feel about each other. Time plays a central role in the diversity of cultures such as the American and the Japanese, which Hall shows to be mirror images of each other. He also deals with how time influences relations among Western Europeans, Latin Americans, Anglo-Americans, and Native Americans. |

Budget 2011: some good news and lots of micro-management
It was a bit like Gordon Brown turned inside out: George Osborne's Budget for Growth and Reform (or Rebalancing, or whatever) turned out to have lots of little projects and programmes with sums attached. But instead of the Brown approach in which all the innovations were state-run job creation schemes, the Osborne ventures were designed to stimulate private sector growth.
So instead of the Brown one-stop shops and government training schemes, there was help for private enterprise to create more apprenticeships and to take on more work experience interns. There would be some direct funding from Whitehall but the initiatives and management of the schemes was to be a private affair. There would be help for small businesses (especially if they were green) and less regulation. The big news for business growth was a larger than expected cut in corporation tax (2 per cent) with a promise of a further one per cent cut in each of the next three years. (This sounded more like the George Osborne I knew who once spoke of the need for Britain to compete in a global market in which Estonia had a corporation tax of nil.)
The increased personal tax allowance had already been trailed but its significance is considerable: by extending it to all taxpayers rather than just to those on the basic rate, the Chancellor seemed to signal that he understood the need for lower taxes for everyone – not just the poor and not just for business. In fact, the freezing of personal tax allowances during the Labour years had exploited the possibilities of fiscal drag to an outrageous degree allowing more and more people to be dragged into the higher rate tax band. As Mr Osborne said, with some justifiable pride, this increase will mean that no taxpayer will be worse off as a result of this Budget.
But most families will still be treading water. Mr Osborne described one of his chief goals as "helping families with the cost of living". What he has done is avoided loading them with further hardship which will seem like a pretty small blessing. Most of his pro-business measures are designed to create jobs and stimulate growth which will help the population at large eventually but their effects will be slow in coming. What most households need if they are to do their bit to stimulate the economy is the right to keep more of what they earn – sooner rather than later.

Seven picked for Alamo MAC

Dear Dolores,
There are no surprises in the choices. Let us wish them success in outreach to a community that awaits their commitment to community engagement.
Success will be defined by outreach,
on Oct 14, 2009 at 10:17 pm
How about a little proactivity on the part of Alamo residents, too. There should be a lot of outreach and, just as important, the MAC should also get a lot of "inreach" which is defined as Alamo folks staying informed and taking time to contact the MAC on issues.
Success will be defined by communication in both directions.
on Oct 15, 2009 at 7:19 am
Dear Dolores,
As you will note in Alamo Ron's comment, the expectation is that Alamo's majority must beat a path to authority's door by creating all outreach to the MAC. With no recognition of such authority and no desire for a relationship with Mary N. Piepho, that path will not be pursued. Neighborhoods, in representing more than 8000 voters in 94507, will not support the MAC and have once again voted NO for the same reasons as incorporation:
Lack of inclusion in the definition of the council and its government.
Lack of definition of a rational purpose for such government.
Lack of purpose in its planning.
on Oct 15, 2009 at 9:20 am
So Hal,
How has that approach been working out for you?
Not so good? Someday you may learn that opening a door is far easier than running head-on straight into a wall.
In the meantime you continue to define yourself and entertain the rest of us. At least there is that.
on Oct 15, 2009 at 11:13 am
I'm sorry to hear that the "neighborhoods" won't lift a finger to interact with the MAC. Guess their views won't be represented...
on Oct 16, 2009 at 9:24 pm
Good luck to the MAC. It definitly needs a lot of support from the community to do the work of all the pre-MAC volunteers with only seven people, talented as they are. The concern is that we may loose the depth and the quality of work. Hope the volunteers will not abandon the good work they have been doing and supplement the lack of resources of the MAC. The limitations placed on MAC's ability to use external resources and have sub-committees make one wonder if it is part of the intent to minimize the interference by the residents in the affairs of their government! ( The County and the Supervisors). Of course as a wise person said : people have the government they desrve. With the exception of a small minority the rest of Alamo is on auto-pilot and does not want to be bothered by pesky little community issues; UNTILL IT HAPPENS TO THEM!

A 66 year old Union Mills man is dead after an explosion shortly after 2pm this afternoon at the Co-Alliance Grain Elevator in Union Mills. LaPorte County Coroner John Sullivan says the man died due to blunt force trauma after some type of explosion that left the building standing but unstable. Coroner Sullivan says everyone has been accounted for and at last check they were waiting on the A-T-F and the State Fire Marshal. The LaPorte County Sheriff's Office reports the explosion occurred and was limited to a concrete grain silo that is adjacent to a railroad spur on the grounds of the Co-Op, and that the deceased is an employee who was working in the silo at the time of the explosion. Authorities report no hazardous chemicals were involved or released as a result.

Sometimes I think there's not much to do in Santa Barbara and other times I think there's too much. These are some of the most popular and most interesting things I've found to do in Santa Barbara.
1. Stearns Wharf
One of the most visible features of the waterfront, the oldest working West Coast pier was once owned by Hollywood legend Jimmy Cagney and his brothers. It is home to restaurants, ice cream stands and a fish market. Don't miss the Ty Warner Sea Center.2. Chase Palm Park
This long, narrow park hugs the waterfront with a palm-lined walking/riding path. Rent bicycles, pedal-powered surreys, windsurfers or kayaks at one of the nearby shops. On weekends, enjoy the arts and crafts festival.3. Santa Barbara Mission
Often called the "Queen of the Missions" it's a few blocks inland from the State Street shopping area. Its classical-styled exterior was copied from an early architecture book. The interior is the most beautiful of the California missions.4. State Street
Santa Barbara's main street is lined with shops and restaurants. Join the locals for a stroll down the street and some leisurely shopping at Paseo Nuevo. We particularly like the Random Store at 1207 State Street - that's really its name and it's full of all kinds of interesting stuff.5. Red Tile Walking Tour
This self-guided walking tour covers some of Santa Barbara's oldest and most fascinating architectural landmarks.6. Channel Islands National Park
Just offshore and beautifully unspoiled, these islands which have never been part of the mainland are California's version of the Galapagos.7. Santa Barbara Zoo
It's a popular place to go, but we have reservations about the Santa Barbara Zoo. You should read our review and decide for yourself whether it's for you or not.8. Polo Matches
Polo season runs from April through October, and anyone can watch.9. What Do People Like Best in Santa Barbara?

Get portable AC power with a DC to AC power inverter. Power inverters convert 12V DC power into a clean 120V AC power system. Batteries Plus is your best source for safe power converters and inverters. More and more devices are going cord free. But sometimes you need to keep the cord to get that extra amount of battery energy.
A power converter is a great option. Our inverters allow you to connect to a 12V power source – from a car outlet or a battery – and have the energy converted to 120VA available through a three-prong outlet. Run your computer in your car, set up a printer, or use the power for a portable TV or radio. You can also use an inverter as a back-up power source during inclement weather.
Choosing the right power inverter
can be confusing. To find the appropriate inverter, just match up the watt draw of your device to the appropriate inverter with enough output for your needs.

About Riverside Furniture
Riverside has been growing for more than half a century. The company's founder, Herman Udouj, opened the doors to his first factory in 1946, and along with 12 employees, he began making handcrafted furniture for the post-World War II Baby Boom era. Since then, generations of customers have furnished their homes and offices with Riverside's wide range of furniture products. Riverside strives to be trusted for quality products that are an affordable value. It's just that simple.
Notes on Riverside Construction
All Riverside domestic furniture is constructed of fine oak, ash, poplar, and pine wood. These wood types are durable and feature beautiful, open grains that make them much preferred among furniture manufacturers. Each piece of wood is first graded for quality, then kiln-dried to remove excess moisture and prevent splitting. The wood is then constructed into a high-quality furniture piece using a combination of hardwood solids and hand-selected veneers. Techniques used on Riverside pieces include dovetail joinery, heavy-duty drawer roller guides, and multi-step finish applications that include hand-sanding and polishing for a deep, lustrous result. All Riverside furniture is given this high-quality treatment to ensure the beauty and durability of your final product.

It's recommended that Riverside furniture be cleaned with a damp, clean dust cloth. Any kind of surface or finish may be cleaned using this method. A mild detergent may be applied, if necessary, for areas that will not clean with just a cloth. Avoid the use of oil-based polishes and direct-spray polishes that can cause a waxy build-up.
Placing hot items, such as coffee mugs or dinner plates on a piece of furniture can soften the finish. Condensation from cold objects or liquid spills will cause the finish to "bubble" and leave a milky-white discoloration. Never use fingernail polish remover over a wood finish because if it makes contact with the finish it will eat through it much like a paint or varnish remover exposing the wood underneath and demanding that the surface be refinished to repair the damage. The damage described above can be eliminated by the use of coasters, trivets, and common sense.
Always use a protective pad beneath lamps or accessories, and on writing surfaces. Do not place rubber or vinyl products on the surface as discoloration and/or staining may occur as a result.

RECOFTC: April People and Forests E-Newsletter
Dear Readers,
Happy New Year to readers in Cambodia, Lao PDR, Myanmar, and Thailand!
Before the festivities, Bangkok is hosting the United Nations climate change talks this week. Attendees will follow up on the Cancun Agreement from the Conference of the Parties last year. For a quick refresher on Cancun and what it means for the Asia-Pacific region, browse through RECOFTC and FAO's Forests and Climate Change After Cancun booklet with experts' responses to 12 big questions on REDD+ and land use. To keep you current on the discussions, RECOFTC staffers will be blogging from the event all week. Meanwhile, our Twitter feed will cover the latest news headlines.
At RECOFTC, the month saw the signing of a new project on forest livelihoods in the Mekong region with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Finland and a commitment to expand our activities in Vietnam. As we prepare for our midterm review at the end of the month, we invite you to take part in a short survey on the quality of our products and services.
Until next month,

Sci. STKE, 2 November 1999 EDITORS' CHOICECell growth Cell growth: A Single Bag of Tricks for YeastThe already impressive capacity of yeast to use very similar Map kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways to mediate distinct biological processes becomes even more amazing with a report from Lee and Elion. The MAPKKK/Ste11 and other downstream components were thought to be dedicated to mating and invasive growth signaling pathways and to be inactive during normal vegetative growth. The authors show that Ste11 and other components shared by the mating and invasive growth pathway also function to promote vegetative growth. Hence, yeast appear to accommodate a variety of responses by using appropriate members from a single repertoire of signaling components. Lee, B.N., and Elion, E.A. (1999) The MAPKKK Ste11 regulates vegetative growth through a kinase cascade of shared signaling components. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 96: 12679-12684.

| Graphics card not recognized Today, I downloaded and installed build 7100 of Windows 7 after a great experience with build 7000. However, I do the WEI and it tells me I have no graphics card, even though I do. It's an older 128MB ATI Mobility RADEON X1400, and it ran Aero just fine with build 7000 with no problems. Should I try using a newer driver, or something else? |

| I have a similar setup and similar conditions. Aero ran just fine under 7000 now 7100 is telling me that I have standard VGA card. I have tried everything from Vista OS drivers to compatibility mode and Windows Update. If there is anyway with knowledge on how to fix please update! |

| are you all using the Windows 7 GPU drivers..??, if yes, uninstall them & try the vista driver.... trust me it works..... the Windows 7 drivers may be causing an issue if no luck, uninstall the driver completely, reboot & reinstall in ''safe mode'', if still no joy you could try re seating your cards.....sometimes H/W fails to get detected when new S/W is installed.

| A perfectly good ATI driver for the X1400 was removed from Windows 7 some weeks ago. I used a Vista driver and it's fine. I had to force the driver to install by directly specifying it in spite of Windows 7 saying it's not compatible. I was disappointed they removed the support for older ATI chips. Bye. |

| Hey ya all- I'm new here so be careful. Ha. I too just downloaded build 7100 yesterday and got it running. I have an HP L2000 laptop- Lance Armstrong edition. It has 750 MBs RAM and a 1.8 CPU. I cannot get any screensavers to work- it says I have to get a card that supports DirectX3D. DirectX v. 11 is on board. I checked and that's what it showed. Another thing going on is that I can't get the audio for a DVD to work. It just gives a chattering sound. CD audio is fine, but not DVD audio. The video works ok. Both the screensavers and DVD audio worked with the Windows 7 beta and in XP with this same laptop, but not with this RC build 7100. BTW, I did try a 1G RAM chip from another L2000 laptop to make it 1.5G, but it didn't change anything. Should I have mentioned the audio in a separate post??? I see WEI mentioned. If anyone suggests that you'll have to explain it to me as I have no idea what it is or does. Oh- do replies posted here also go to my email? Thanks to all. Ron K |

Is It Worth It?
In Matthew 28:15, the guards took the money and did as they had been instructed; and this story was widely spread among the Jews, and is to this day.
When the devil confronts us with a tempting offer, what do we do? The guards who saw the works of God before their very eyes had their hearts set on money instead of truth. As Jesus asked in Matthew 16:26, "For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?" The devil offered Jesus all the kingdoms of this world and Jesus turned him down without hesitation. We have all bought into the devil's lies at least once in our lifetime (and many of us a lot more times), but all glory to God that through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ we were bought out of our contract with the devil. It doesn't seem it is the resurrection people really have a problem with. It is actually the change of lifestyle the resurrection demands. If Jesus did rise from the dead, then He is God. If He is God, then we must stop worshipping ourselves and start worshipping Him. It is more than an intellectual ability that keeps us away from God. Itis the pride of the human heart. It is amazing how we put so much trust in something that starts to fail us and may eventually attacks us as we get older. The human heart has a mind of its own. It eats on its own, it stops on its own, it attacks us on its own. I would rather put my trust in the Creator of the heart who actually cares about my eternal life instead of my created heart which doesn't care what happens to me by the time this reflection ends.

Materials: wool; Technique: simple tabby, tapestry on single warp threads; Warp: S-spin, c.14 ends per cm; Weft: S-spin, c. 12 picks per cm in plain areas, c.34 in tapestry; Edges: cut or fragmentary; Sewing: none.Textile fragment of undyed white wool; yellowish-brown ground decorated with a Greek cross, outlined in black wool with decorated squares in red and green on pale brown.
- Found/Acquired: Qaw el-Kebir
- (Africa,Egypt,Upper Egypt,Qaw el-Kebir)
- Length: 22 centimetres
- Width: 18.5 centimetres
Medium, fragmentary on one side.
Treatment date
3 January 2008
Treatment proposal
Remove from sticky net (which is sticking to current correx board). Support on fabric covered board.
The fragment has previously been attached to a 'sticky' net, a nylon net coated with PVA(?) adhesive. Since there is no previous treatment record it is not known when this was done, but judging by the fine nylon net it is likely to have been sometime within the last thirty years. The adhesive used is probably thermoplastic.
The fragment is mostly complete, although it has no finished edges. The edges are raw and fraying and at one edge there is a small fragment attached by just a couple of threads. This is prevented from coming loose by the 'sticky' net, although the weave was not aligned when this was done and the fragment is not correctly positioned. There is some surface staining but overall the fragment is in a fairly good condition and the fibres do not appear to be too friable.Treatment details
As the fragment was fairly complete, tests were carried out to remove the 'sticky' net so that the fragment could lie on a fabric covered board for storage. It was found that as the net wasn't too strongly adhered to the textile, it could partly be peeled off with the help of a palette knife, without too many loose fibres remaining attached to the net. On parts where the adhesion was stronger a very small amount of acetone on a cotton swab was used to dissolve the adhesive. No water was used in trying to swell the adhesive as it was felt to be preferable not to introduce water to the fibres. A square of net was retained in the area underneath and surrounding the small fragment attached by only a few threads, so that it could not become detached. If the fragment were mounted for display in the future, this net could very easily be removed from this area and the fragment repositioned and secured.
On the reverse three red woollen threads and a very small red woven woollen fragment was found. There is a possibility that this comes from another part of the textile as the red colour is very much like the colour in the fragment's motif. Other loose threads were also found. The small fragment and the threads were placed in a Perspex sample box and labelled so that they do not become separated from the fragment. A board was made for the fragment to lay on in its box. It was made from two sheets of Correx (polypropylene/polyethylene copolymer,coorugated sheet) cut with the grain in different directions to give it maximum strength and to prevent the board from bowing. The Correx sheets were held together with gummed linen tape all the way around the sides with Vinamul 3252 (vinyl acetate,ethylene copolymer) applied to the tape. A 10 cm border of adhesive (Vinamyl 3252) was applied on the reverse of the board and allowed to dry. The front was covered with thin cotton domette which was turned over to the reverse and heat sealed to a 5 cm margin of the dried adhesive using an iron. The domette was stretched as much as possible. This was covered with an undyed cotton calico which was also heat sealed to the remaining adhesive on the back of the board. Gummed linen tape with extra adhesive (Vinamul 3252) was put over the edges of the calico to secure it. The fragment was placed on the board inside the box, with the small sample box. -

Gorgeous, gorgeous red wine! From the pop of the cork, till we drained every last drop out of the bottle... completely delicious. Thank you! -18 Points
- Jan Spencer from IL
The strong scents of oak in this wine are very misleading. I thought my first sip would be a oak flavor, but it was so smooth and fruit flavorful. I loved this wine, and I'm sure it will be gone before I get my next shipment. -19 Points
- Lori Graham from PA
WOW!! We just received our first shipment. We are members of other wine clubs and there is no comparison as to presentation, quality and price. -20 Points

Once it is opened and rests it is an excellent red wine. Very smooth. One of the best I have received. -19 Points

Very nice, find unique taste. Went great with a beef roast. -18 Points

Truly enjoyed this Red. Very fruity with just enough oak. Yummy! -20 Points

NEW YORK Eighteen people have been indicted for their alleged involvement in a multimillion-dollar copper theft ring.
Most of the stolen copper was sent to a scrapyard in California before being shipped to international destinations, according to the Arizona Department of Public Safety (ADPS).
The accused, who face 136 felony counts, including illegally conducting an enterprise, conspiracy, money laundering and theft, include two former employees at Asarco LLCs mine in Hayden, Ariz. "Rene Joe Arbizo and Gene Carlo Garcia were supervisors at the mine and played critical roles in the thefts," ADPS Captain Ryan Young said.
On Sept. 28 last year, the ADPS intercepted a load of 49 copper anodes, valued at about $171,000, on a tractor-trailer in northern Tucson, Ariz. Later that day, officials recovered an additional 56 anodes from a ranch in Marana, Ariz.
The ensuing investigation led to the discovery that two Asarco employees allegedly were involved in an elaborate copper theft scheme that included shipping stolen anodes to New Star Services, a scrap recycling facility in Upland, Calif., from where they allegedly were exported to ports in southern China. A subsequent search at New Star Services found an additional 24 anodes, and stolen anodes also were recovered from three separate cargo ships bound for China.
Representatives from New Star Services couldnt be reached for comment.
"The metal recycler would purchase the stolen copper from the defendants at a fraction of the commodity price and would resell it to Chinese importers at a profit," Tom Horne, Arizonas attorney general, said in a statement. In an effort to deceive U.S. Customs inspectors, workers at New Star allegedly blackened the raw copper with a torch to disguise the metal before loading it into cargo containers on ships destined for China, he said.
"This is a stunning example of theft on a massive scale," Horne said. "Copper production is a signature component of our states economy. For these defendants to abuse their positions at a mining producer and allow this valuable resource to be stolen and resold on the black market is unconscionable."
Tucson-based Asarco is an integrated copper mining, smelting and refining company with about 2,700 employees.

Is your child heading off to college in the fall for the first time? This is an exciting time of a young adult's life. It is the first time, for many, that they will truly be on their own making their own decisions and living with those consequences. Many high school seniors begin planning what to take to college the minute they toss their graduation hat. Parents are always looking for gifts that will make college life easier on their son or daughter. Classic gifts like a shaving kit for men and women, as well as the old cash standard, are just a few ideas.
All college students want to line their pockets with cash. There is nothing worse than feeling poor and strapped for cash when you are 500 miles away from home. Most parents still financially provide for their college-aged students even if they have part-time jobs while they are in college. However, instead of sending your college freshman off to school with a roll of cash consider giving them a pre-paid Visa gift card instead. These cards have all the benefits of cash, but they are a safer option. Also, if your child needs cash quick, you can reload online within seconds.
Your college freshman will no longer have you to rely on to make sure they get up and make it to their classes on time. While many kids rely on their cell phones to wake them up in the morning, these devices don't work very well if they are not properly charged. A late night studying and falling asleep in front of the computer can cause your child to forget to plug their phone into the charger. You know what happens next, a missed class. A traditional alarm clock is a cute, nostalgic gift that your college freshman will find charming. It is also a gift that will probably not end up falling into the toilet or getting left in the dorms across campus.
By this age, your child has a good handle on their personal hygiene habits. However, college kids, especially young men, would rather spend their extra cash on fun times than soap and toothpaste. Help your college student smell well and look presentable by investing in a personal hygiene kit. For your daughter, fill the kit with yummy smelling soaps and body lotions. Give them a 9-month supply of loofahs in a variety of colors. For your son, don't forget that gifts, like a shaving kit for men, are an excellent addition to any personal hygiene kit. Also, be sure to include a year's supply of deodorant. Both boys and girls will benefit from large amounts of toothpaste, a few toothbrushes, dental floss, contact solution (for contact lens wearers), and over-the-counter medicine like ibuprofen, cold medicine, and cough drops. College students who are away from home enjoy their college experience more when they know that the comforts of home are still possible. Also, don't forget to make sure their cell phones have adequate minutes and text options so you can stay in touch with them whenever they get the urge to call home for a chat.

Panel Round Two
More questions for the panel: Mount Effortless, Door-to-Shore Delivery.
Copyright © 2013 NPR. For personal, noncommercial use only. See Terms of Use. For other uses, prior permission required.
All right now, panel, some more questions for you from the week's news. Amy, after visitors complained that it was just too hard to get up there, a tour group is considering installing a ladder where?
AMY DICKINSON: Oh, come on. Like, Mount Everest?
SAGAL: Mount Everest, yes.
DICKINSON: No.
DICKINSON: A ladder?
SAGAL: This week marked the 60th anniversary of the first ascent of Everest by Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay. Thousands have followed in their footsteps since then, but what about those times when only one set of footsteps appeared? That, my son, was when the Sherpas carried them...
SAGAL: ...because they paid to be carried. So here's the thing. There's this one part - there's so many people going up on Everest, which is mostly a very high-altitude hike, but there is one place where you have to climb up this rock face. It's called Hillary's Step.
DICKINSON: Well, god forbid.
SAGAL: God forbid you should have to climb.
DICKINSON: It's Mount Everest, yeah.
SAGAL: And there's actually a huge backup there during the brief climbing season because everybody waiting to climb up. So they're like, let's just put a ladder there, speed things along. The only problem is now the food court up at the summit is going to be so crowded.
SAGAL: Ken, this week we learned about a North Carolina couple headed to Hawaii to have their baby. They're headed there because they want their baby to be delivered by what?
KEN JENNINGS: I did see this. They want the baby delivered by dolphins.
SAGAL: That's correct.
SAGAL: It's dolphin-assisted childbirth.
JENNINGS: Wow.
SAGAL: The couple will stay at the Sirius Institute, a group organized with the purpose of, quote, "dolphinizing" the planet and taking money from crazy people.
SAGAL: The idea is that the couple will swim with a dolphin pod, they'll be there in the water and when the time comes for the baby to be born, the dolphins will help with the birth. How will they do this? Presumably by being just as useless as every husband is at that point.
DICKINSON: Right.
BILL KURTIS: No. I happen to know about dolphins a little bit, which is that's how they - you have a midwife dolphin that swims along with the...
KURTIS: ...no seriously, expecting dolphin. And when the - because they breath air, dolphins, you know.
SAGAL: I know that, yes.
KURTIS: So when the baby comes out, the midwife dolphin flips it up in the air so it's first breath is of air and not water. Now how they do it with a baby I don't know.
DICKINSON: Right.
SAGAL: So you're telling me like this woman's going to give birth in the water and the dolphin's going to flip the infant...
DICKINSON: Now, wait.
SAGAL: So they'll know the baby is born watching from the shore when all of a sudden it's like, oh there she goes.
SAGAL: Newborn infant. Like a Polaris missile headed for the top of the water.
JENNINGS: Do you guys remember back in the '50s when the dolphin would just have to swim back and forth in the waiting rooms...
SAGAL: It was terrible.
JENNINGS: ...smoking cigarettes? I mean...
SAGAL: And the dolphin hadn't shaved in like three days. It had like the five o'clock shadow, yeah. But a dolphin is going to be a terrible birth coach for a human, though. It's like, OK now, breathe deeply through the top of your head.
SAGAL: No, the top of your head. What's your problem?
JENNINGS: You got to get the shark in to cut the cord and then everybody's happy.
JENNINGS: And do the circumcision.
SAGAL: A shark mohel.
SAGAL: Here comes a little shark with a yamaka. I love that.

I bought several items in the recent sale. All of them were despatched very quickly. This year's sale was the best ever, with some fantastic bargains, and with such a high standard of service, Function18 gets my vote as the best online golf clothing retailer in the UK.
I ordered an item with a delivery time between 3 and 7 working days. I am very happy with the item itself, but the delivery time was acutally 11 working days (more than 2 calendar weeks) which I thought was poor. Having sent 3 emails to Customer Services, I finally received a reply and a brief apology but no explanation for the delay in despatch.

FAIRBANKS, Alaska—
A Superior Court Judge has issued a final judgment in the lawsuit stemming from the 2010 U.S. Senate campaign in Alaska, bringing an end to the case.The Fairbanks Daily News-Miner (http://is.gd/QHLH7x) says Judge Stephanie Joannides has accepted the terms of the agreement penned in mid-June between former Republican candidate Joe Miller, the Fairbanks North Star Borough and former borough Mayor Jim Whitaker.
The borough and Whitaker have agreed to jointly pay $5,000 to end the long-running and costly lawsuit.
However, they deny any admission of fault relating to Miller's claims that someone at the borough improperly released details of his personnel files during his campaign.
Borough Mayor Luke Hopkins says the borough has already cut a check for Miller.

Damn, no love for our Bruins. UCLA wins the PAC-12 Conference, and beats Arizona THREE times this season and they place us a 6th seed in the South?5 Pac 12 teams in the big dance, Good to see Cal make it. Oregon s/b a much higher seed, but will beat Oklahoma State.
Minnesota matches up well against the Bruins and may just do all us Bruins a favor and beat UCLA and get Howland fired, UCLA is toast without Jordan Adams and even if they beat Minn. won't go deep, Adams injury is a MAJOR blow for UCLA.
And if we get past Minnesota, more than likely our old NCAA nemesis Florida is awaiting! Ughhhh NCAA!!!
Go Bruins!

Empowered lives. Resilient nations.
UN Internship Policy
UNDP is the UN's global development network, advocating for change and connecting countries to knowledge, experience and resources to help people build a better life. We are on the ground in 166 countries, working with them on their own solutions to global and national development challenges.
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES OF THE HIV & AIDS IMPACT STUDY Lesotho is one of the countries most affected by HIV and AIDS in the world. The epidemic has spread rapidly throughout the country since the first case of AIDS was reported in the remote mountain district of Mokhotlong in 1986, to the current rate of 23.2% HIV prevalence of the adult population. It is a known fact that every day the Civil Service is losing trained human resources beyond the capacity to replace them. However, to date no systematic effort has been undertaken to assess the impact of HIV & AIDS on the Lesotho Civil Service. The Ministry of Public Service recognises that currently, there is limited information/data on the impact of HIV & AIDS in the country, and therefore the entry point is to undertake a comprehensive impact assessment. When the facts are known, it will be possible to develop appropriate capacity building initiatives and HIV & AIDS Action Plans for the work place. With the support of UNDP Lesotho and in collaboration with the National AIDS Commission, the Ministry of Public Service is undertaking an assessment to determine the impact of HIV & AIDS on the public sector in Lesotho. 2. PRODUCTS EXPECTED FORM THE HIV & AIDS IMPACT STUDY Overall, the expected output would be a comprehensive report, which would highlight the following: • Death rate in the Civil Service (sector specific) • Occupational groups or skills most affected • Vacancy levels • The status of Human Resources Management (HRM) practices and policies including issues of training and development. • Recommendations on way forward and specific interventions, considering the impact of HIV & AIDS on the Lesotho civil service. 3. SPECIFIC RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE HIV & AIDS IMPACT ASSESSMENT STUDY TEAM The assessment team will do the following: • Establish the attrition rate by death for the last ten years in the Lesotho Civil Service • Identify occupational categories or skills most affected. • Establish the attrition rate by death between gender and various age groups. • Establish the amount of economic and financial support that the Government provides to civil servants in Lesotho through the 2% - 1% budgetary allocation for HIV & AIDS as part of the National AIDS Spending Assessment (NASA). • Establish the level of vacancies caused by death and the time it takes to fill them taking into account occupational categories. • Establish sickness levels among sector institutions and identify incidences of prolonged cases. • Establish disclosure levels within sector institutions, and impact of stigma on the disclosed in the Civil Service. • Assess the impact of all the above on Human Resource demand and supply in the Civil Service. • Make appropriate recommendations for Human Resource Capacity building interventions and measures to be adopted at the work place to improve HRM practices. • Develop ministerial mechanisms for monitoring and evaluating the impact and effect of employee assistance programme. 4. EXPECTED OUTPUTS • Research proposal to undertake the study. The proposal will include review of relevant documents, method of data collection, and description and justification for conducting the study and the outline of the study. Out-put: Compilation of studies and policy documents on HIV/AIDS in Lesotho • Draft report of the study which will be distributed and reviewed by all constituencies, stakeholders and UN colleagues; Out-put: Socio-economic data and indicators • Seminar aiming to review, discuss and elaborate the report; Out-put: Recommendations • Final report in both hard and soft format. 5. TIME LINE The UNDP Resident Representative in Lesotho will be primarily responsible for organising and managing the assessment study in consultation with the Ministry of Public Service. The consultant(s) is expected to report to UNDP according to agreed dates with the consultancy starting in November 2007 over a period of six months. • Completion of Research Proposal; • Completion of Data Collation and Analysis; • Completion of Write-up Drafts (Draft Zero and Draft 1-which will be shared during the seminar for feedback); • Completion of Draft 2 – with the seminar feedback integrated; • Completion of Draft 3 – which will need mostly editorial and layout work • Completion of the Final Document ready for reproduction. 6.
