Best large family cars
Large family cars need to offer plenty of space, low running costs, and enough power to haul around a heavy load from time-to-time. But they also need to be affordable and robust enough to cope with the day-to-day demands of family life.
It wasn't so long ago that this category was dominated by cars from Ford and Vauxhall, but that's no longer the case. Brands like Skoda, Hyundai and Mazda have produced some incredible family cars in recent years, and the class is now one of the most competitive around.
And models in the family car class are no longer the only cars suitable for coping with transporting a partner and children. There are plenty of MPVs and SUVs that offer superb practicality and running costs. While many of the best large executive cars double up as fantastic family vehicles.
We've listed our Top 10 Large Family Cars below, but you should also take a look at our list of the Best Large MPVs, Best 4x4s and SUVs and Best Large Executive Cars.

If you're like most parents, when you think about bullying, you imagine a face-to-face conflict that involves pushing, shoving and possibly hitting. Or maybe you imagine a child being called names and made fun of. But there is another more subtle form of bullying called relational aggression.
With this type of bullying, kids often socially reject, exclude or ostracize other children. This type of bullying becomes more and more evident as kids get into middle school and junior high. It is even commonplace in adult circles to have exclusive groups where others are purposefully left out.
Dealing with this type of bullying can be a challenge for kids because it causes so much pain to be excluded, especially at a time when peer relationships are so important. Not only do kids suffer socially, but they also can suffer academically. And if a child grows into an adult feeling worthless, rejected or less valued than others, this can cause all sorts of issues.
Although you cannot prevent your child from being ostracized, there are things you can do to help her if it does happen. Here are some ways you can help your child cope with being ostracized at school.
Talk with your teen or tween. Make sure she feels comfortable sharing with you. Avoid overreacting or calling those excluding your child names. And don't shame your child for being ostracized by indicating that she should be different somehow or that she should try harder to be liked. Instead, focus on listening and empathizing with how she is feeling.
Be sure your child can identify the difference between unkind behavior and bullying. Sometimes when kids are excluded, it's not intentionally meant to harm your child. And even though it hurts to be left out, it does happen. Help your child determine if the kids at school were being unkind or bullying and making a deliberate effort to exclude her. Regardless of which situation your child experienced, don't minimize the hurt she feels. Both experiences are painful and need to be dealt with.
Discuss what is controllable and what isn't. Be sure your child realizes that she has no control over what other people say or do. But she can control how she responds. Work with your child to come with ideas on how to handle the situation and overcome bullying. The goal is that your child would not feel helpless but instead feel empowered with different options.
Give advice, but don't "fix" things. It's never a good idea for parents to take over in a situation, no matter how much you want to. Instead, let your children decide how they want to handle the situation. Demonstrate that you trust their decisions. This will go a long way in rebuilding self-esteem.
Seek out other friendships. Healthy friendships are one of the best ways to prevent bullying. Additionally, having at least one friend will give a child a sense of belonging, which can go a long way in erasing the impact of being rejected at school. Look for ways you can help your child develop friendships.
Encourage participation in outside activities. When your children are involved in outside activities, whether it's sports, yearbook staff, a church group or a reading club, they not only have an opportunity to make friends, but they also are being self-confidence. Additionally, outside activities give kids the opportunity to release tension, develop creativity and blow off steam. Don't underestimate the importance of getting your kids involved in activities outside of school.
Improve your child's social skills. Many times when a child is ostracized, it's the result of other kids being mean or catty. But sometimes kids are excluded because they are lacking proper social skills. Help your child develop the traits needed to cope with bullying. By doing so, you also will be instilling healthy social skills that will benefit your child indefinitely.
Consider outside help. Being socially rejected can affect your child in a number of ways including negatively impacting self-esteem. As a result, it is a good idea to get outside help. A pediatrician or a counselor can assess your tween or teen for depression as well as screen for thoughts of suicide. Even if your child appears fine to you, it never hurts to get a second opinion.

NEW ORLEANS, LA. (WVUE) - The New Orleans Saints have from February 17th to March 3rd to designate tight end Jimmy Graham as a franchise player, otherwise he will become a free agent March 11th.
General Manager Mickey Loomis is sure to place the tag on Graham if a long term contract cannot be agreed on before March 3rd but Graham is not letting the speculation affect his offseason "I get my work in wherever I am, I've been through a lockout, I've been through a regular season and shorter season so you know, I'm going to be ready when I'm called on."
Speaking today at a promotional event leading up to NBA All-Star weekend, Graham downplayed the speculation that his agent, Jimmy Sexton, will try to sell Graham as a wide receiver in order to earn the higher compensation of a receiver "That's not for me to decide, I'm going to do and I'm going to play whatever I'm asked to do or play, it's that simple."
As for Drew Brees' vocal lobbying to get his main target back, Graham joked "I talked to Drew last week up in New York at the Jimmy Fallon show and he told me what he had done the day before which is awesome, he's standing on top of desks. That's my guy, he always will be and I'm always appreciative of everything that he does."

More than 40 LED lighting systems manufacturers met at The Entertainment Technology Show-LDI2004 to voice their concern over the past and most recent Color Kinetics patents. The key participants at the meeting were Wayne Howell of Artistic Licence, Nils Thorjussen of Element Labs, Tom Fay of TPR Enterprises, Doug Fleenor of Doug Fleenor Design, Banly Cheung of NCQ Holdings Ltd, John Ortiz of NSI, Chris Ewington of James Thomas Engineering, Bill Little of Advanced Lighting, Brett Kingstone and Mike Bauer of Super Vision, and Wayne Crosby, legal counsel for Super Vision.
"Almost all the participants voiced their concerns with the wholesale attempts at patenting prior art that has been employed by lighting manufacturers and designers for the last two decades," notes Kingstone, who provided an account of the meeting. "This appears to be nothing more than an attempt to extract a monopoly position on prior art."
Super Vision, who took the lead in bringing a declaratory judgement action against Color Kinetics' patents, had asked the industry for both financial support and additional prior art evidence support in this case. Kingstone reports that the industry manufacturers in attendance have decided to band together and encourage their trade associations to oppose the early Color Kinetics patents on the use of pulse width modulation in variable controlled LED lighting fixtures. They are also concerned about the newly approved patents on the use of DMX control technology in conjunction with LED lighting systems.
There has also been some talk of creating an industry committee that will share e-mails and meet at ETS-LDI, Lightfair, or PLASA once or twice a year. One mechanism for immediately addressing the issue was to offer the industry a very fair and reasonable licensing agreement to the Belliveau patent and Laidman Technology.
The High End Belliveau patent, purchased by Super Vision, pre-dates Color Kinetics by almost a decade and provides much broader coverage on color-changing lighting fixtures. Super Vision also recently acquired Laidman Technology which has developments dating back to 1978 and pre-dates Color Kinetics' specific patent claims on variable color lighting fixtures utilizing pulse width modulations by varying the voltage controls to two or more LEDs in a lighting fixture. Such a license provided industry wide at a very low rate would be a cost effective insurance policy for the industry until this matter gets to trial. Super Vision now has more than 25 companies that have expressed interest in obtaining licenses to patents and technologies owned by Super Vision as a defensive move against Color Kinetics and also as a show of support for the financial burden in the current court proceedings.
Wayne Howell, of Artistic Licence in the UK notes that, "Super Vision acquired both systems because the two together effectively cover the current practice in the industry and, again, pre-date the patents of Color Kinetics. Many of us are concerned that Color Kinetics will now turn its attention to patenting other industry standards such as DMX and LED white light applications commonly used in the industry. This probably was the key factor in such an unexpectedly large turnout at the meeting."
Howell will also be drafting a petition to the US Patent Office that will be submitted for industry-wide signatures. "There are two main issues here," he says. "The bigger issue is a fundamental flaw in the way US patents are granted. They are not really researched by the patent office. The Color Kinetics patent portfolio shows that it has really gotten out of hand."
Howell believes that the Color Kinetics patents are too broad, in terms of DMX control of LED technology. "There is a moral issue here as well as a commercial one," he says. "Even if what Color Kinetics is doing is legal, it is certainly immoral. If the patents don't hold up, there will be a huge benefit for the entire industry. LEDs are the future in many areas of lighting and the Color Kinetics patents are stifling development."
Color Kinetics recently reported revenues of $11.1 million for the third quarter of 2004, an increase over last year and the second quarter of this year. Color Kinetics also continues to file for new patents, and on October 19, 2004, they were issued US patent number 6,806,659 that broadens the protection of their first patent, issued in January 2000, relating to iChromacore® technology. (Color Kinetics now holds 37 issued patents and have more than 120 patent applications pending).
"We feel that some people are more interested in stirring the pot, rather than developing new products in support of solid state technology," says Kathy Pattison, a spokeswoman for Color Kinetics. "We have protected our intellectual property through patents, and we have a choice what to do with those patents. To date, we have 31 OEM and licensing partners which indicate an open and active program of sharing our technology." Pattison points out that Color Kinetics hold patents not only granted in the US but also in Europe, Australia, Canada, and Hong Kong. "Now that the success of solid state technology is more apparent, a lot of people are jumping on the band wagon," she says.

Mr. Gates and Mr. Jobs:
A few days ago, Andrei Herasimchuk (whom I consider a friend and admire quite a lot) posted an open letter to John Warnock, CEO of Adobe Systems, with regard to typography on the web. Andrei proposed that Adobe, being the license holder of several of the classic typefaces, "consider releasing eight to twelve core fonts into the public domain." Andrei's list of suggestions include Warnock Pro, Jenson Pro, Caslon Pro, and more.
While these are great typefaces and would certainly be an incredible addition to any web designer's toolkit, I can't help but think the request is a bit too idealistic to have a chance of really happening (Adobe, please feel free to prove me wrong). Not only do these typefaces make up a decent revenue stream for Adobe that would be lost, but Adobe also has a vested interested in a little web technology called Flash, and may well believe that making great type available in HTML and CSS-based web pages could hinder Flash adoption amongst designers who demand great typography. And I know neither of you want Adobe coming to the web's rescue.
So, while I'm all for Adobe following through on Andrei's request, I'm asking another company to do something about the state of web typography — and I'd like to think my request is a bit more likely to happen.
At some point (sorry I can't be more specific, it's a bit of a moving target), Microsoft will release Vista, the next version of Windows. Bundled along with it is a set of new typefaces Microsoft has commissioned. These fonts are no match for Adobe's Frutiger and Univers, but they are quite nice, nonetheless. Certainly they're far better than the typefaces we web designers can currently rely on being installed on the vast majority of PCs and Macs (a list which, for practical purposes, isn't much longer than Verdana, Georgia, and Arial).
The only problem with these new Vista typefaces is that they're only distributed with Vista. So, I have two simple requests:
- Microsoft, please distribute these new Vista typefaces for older versions of Windows, especially XP. Perhaps include them with the release of Internet Explorer 7 and future Office updates?
- Apple, please license this set of fonts from Microsoft and include them with Mac OS X.
Making good on these two simple requests would go an incredibly long way towards improving the state of typography on the web — and should cost each company next to nothing.
Jeff Croft Web Designer
They are actually more than a match for Univers and Frutiger as far as on screen type is concerned. Like Verdana and Georgia, the new Vista fonts were made with screen use thoroughly in mind. I can't of anything better than for Apple to distribute these as well. Man, that would be swell.
Here here! I, too, long for the day when I have more than a paltry few fonts I can rely on for the web. I'm tired of being handcuffed by the low number of reliable font choices.
I'm with you on this one, we really need some more typefaces available. But unless people start coroperating, we're not going to get anywhere.
Reply: Dear Mr Croft, while we have taken your request into consideration, due to the fact that we cannot load fonts with DRM, make a pretty penny from them and simply do not care about our end users or web developers we have to decline your request. Here's hoping you continue paying for our OS's even though we mock your pleas for help.
Incredible. I was just listening to a talk Dave Shea gave about typography on the web and the current limitations. Here's hoping your plea will work!
Love this post, this is a bit of a dream and I doubt It will ever really happen. Would be really nice but its just too good to be true I think.
I don't really think it's that far-fetched. Apple already licenses Verdana, Georgia, Arial, etc. from Microsoft — why couldn't they license these Vista fonts, as well?
Preach it brother! Amen!
Jeff, does Apple license those, or do they just end up on every Mac that ever had Office/IE/Outlook/Anything-else-MS installed?
Yep, they come with the OS…
I have a problem with your request. For one it leaves us ("linux/bsd/*") folks in the dry. Also you are forgetiting mobile market(which is growing rapidly). Ps3 might even have browser etc.
In my not so humble opinion, solution is to have these fonts standardised by standards body (maybe w3c), and included with every browser.
Problem here is that neither Microsof or Apple have any financial initiative to do that. In fact you could argue that they really don't want this to happen. it probably MS's wet dream that most/all web apps would only work on windows.
So the only solution that I can see, is that someone somewhere buys/pays for set of standard fonts to be developed and released for free. (Like for instance Sun buying starOffice and releasing Open office, or like community bought source for blender 3d).
There is an effort to create free fonts http://dejavu.sourceforge.net/wi… unfortunately they are still converting existing fonts to support as much unicode as possible, but hopefully when that is done, they will create new ones.
I have a problem with your request. For one it leaves us ("linux/bsd/*") folks in the dry.
Then write red hat/ubuntu/debian/whomever an open letter. I'm not "forgetting" them, it's just not my target market. If I can get fonts on Windows and Mac, I hit 96% of the users of my sites. Sorry, but that's my focus.
If having pretty type on Linux matters to you, then you write a letter.
Also you are forgetiting mobile market(which is growing rapidly). Ps3 might even have browser etc.
Again, not forgetting the, just considering them irrelevant when it comes to this. I'm perfectly happy with mobile devices seeing ordinary fonts. Mac and Windows users expect their experiences to be fully rich, and they should have nice typography. Also, these fonts are entirely inappropriate for most mobile screens, so it wouldn't be right for me to ask for them there, anyway.
It probably MS's wet dream that most/all web apps would only work on windows.
Probably, but how is that relevant here? I'm not talking about making web apps work. I'm talking about having a variety of type to choose from. The apps, obviously, will work whether we have that choice or not.
So the only solution that I can see, is that someone somewhere buys/pays for set of standard fonts to be developed and released for free.
This is not a solution. Having free fonts won't help. There are already a million free fonts. The problem is distribution. We need to be able to count on these typefaces being on 90% + of computers. Putting some free fonts up for download will never solve this.
Free fonts are nice, but the quality usually sucks and they'll always be unusable on the web because they'll never be on most computers.
The only way to having fonts web designers can use is distribution with the major operating systems.
I think i didn't make myself clear enough, I didn't sugjest that fonts come with OS be it Win, mac or linux. I sugjested that the only way to get all the fonts everywhere is to ship them with browsers. This means IE, Firefox, Safari … you name it.
And the only way to do that is to have tham freely distributable, and standfardised by some standards organization.
Related to Jason's thoughts, are Adobe fonts such as Warnock Pro (which are designed for high resolution printing) legible on Windows XP with ClearType turned off? I'd always thought you need screen fonts that are designed to work on low-res screens with no anti-aliasing. I also wonder if the new Vista fonts work ok with XP and no ClearType.
I don't know the answer(s), but I do know that the new Vista fonts are optimized for ClearType. Also, I know that IE7 (on XP and Vista both) will have ClearType on by default (it's got an application-speific setting, in addition to the system-wide one).
More broadly distributed web-safe fonts! Now that'd be a creative nirvana. :-)
@Luka, i must be missing something also in your response, because unless i'm mistake-and that could very well be the case- simply shipping fonts with borwsers wont cut it also, the fonts have to be installed on the machine for them to work, now i could wrong again, but i dont see browser makers taking the extra time and expense in creating an addition to their install program to install fonts on a users machine, what happens when their are conflicts, or damaged fonts?
right now on mac most installs of browsers are drag and drop a folder in one place, on windows who knows where all that stuff gets sifted and shuffled to on install, but me thinks it a greater headache for a browser manufacture to then have to be tech support for their browser and somebody elses fonts, no?
Luka, I agree with David. Shipping them with the browsers isn't good enough, and the main reason is that most PCs out there still only have one browser: IE. Most people don't download and install browsers. If, for example, Firefox shipped a set of fonts with their browser, that would penetrate something like 20% of the market — making it completely useless for web designers. The only distribution method that will work is Apple and Microsoft shipping the same fonts with OS X and Windows. It'd be nice is some Linux distros got on board, too, but it'll never happen because they'll never pay Microsoft money to license the fonts.
Well written, Jeff. Messers Jobs and Gates would do well to listen, given their unique position to make the web a nicer looking place…
The free Office 2007 Beta 2 for XP already includes the new Vista fonts.
That's good news. Still, the majority of PC users don't have Office, and certainly most won't have Office 2007. So, while that helps some, it's far from a solution. Microsoft needs to distribute the Vista fonts into Windows XP proper via Windows Update.
Here's to hoping; esp. since those new MS faces are so nice! Aren't they open type, as well? (Looked, but couldn't find confirmation on that point.) That'd make 'em dead easy to include in OS X.
No. These faces belong to Microsoft who have no profit by making their own work available to Mac users. Why should they care if a website looks different on OSX? The problem here is that one can't push one of the companies to act by letting them feel that webdesigners disagree with proprietary pseudo-solutions. (Unlike IE-Haters that make a few negative comments in the IEblog and just switch to a better browser… leading to a decreasing IE marketshare) But regarding fonts? Shall i deinstall Photoshop?
No. These faces belong to Microsoft who have no profit by making their own work available to Mac users. Why should they care if a website looks different on OSX?
The answer is that no one will use the faces unless they're available for Macs, too. Why do people use Verdana, Arial, and Trebuchet on the web? Because they're available on nearly every computer out there today. Why do people not use Garamond, Franklin Gothic, or Tahoma? Because they're only available on Windows.
Microsoft has made these web typefaces because they want web designers to use them so the Internet will be a prettier places, especially when viewed on Vista with ClearType. But, unless they properly distribute the faces, they won't be used. Thus, they'll have wasted all the money they spent in commissioning the typefaces.
Considering the massive number of web designers that use Macs themselves, this effect is compounded. If Microsoft wants these typefaces to be used, they need to be pre-isntalled on Macs, too. If they're not, they won't be widely-used. Period.
The problem here is that one can't push one of the companies to act by letting them feel that webdesigners disagree with proprietary pseudo-solutions.
Why can't we? This doesn't make sense to me. We do disagree with "proprietary pseudo-solutions." Why shouldn't we let them know about it?
But regarding fonts? Shall i deinstall Photoshop?
Huh? What does this have to do with type on the web? I'm confused. Not sure what you're getting at here.
What i was heading at was that unlike webstandards, typography has nothing ("I'll just use a different browser instead"), that webdesigners could use to (really) put pressure onto these companies. I dont think there's an IE7 because they "heard us" or believe standards is the way to go - it's all about marketshare and profits… nothing fonts have an effect on (in the first place) so it won't be easy to comminucate this towards these companies.
J. Siebert CEO of FontShop AG points out to me
We all suffer under the few number of Screen-optimized fonts, but it will need a lot of work (and dollars) to rework these fonts for different platforms and rasterizers and regarding "Frutiger, Futura, Gill Sans, Helvetiva and Univers" Adobe would be the wrong to address these (Andreis') Open Letters.
But in the end i totally agree with you and Andrei for the need of a change in company-roadmaps now as the results of this effort, will be needed in the future more urgent and urgent. I just hope they listen and that people start discussing on this more intense. I started a discussion on a german forum (all professionals) and i am surprised how many people believe that either "more fonts equal more bad design (through font abuse)" or "then they shall use flash instead" or "don't expect a website to look equal on all systems" … etc. illustrates that this discussion hasn't even arrived webdesigners, so needs much more discussion. What if MS doesn't react? Alternatives? Then Andreis Letter would need more discussion especially the details of License (so who are the License owners?) and the effects this has on comapnies selling "Print"-Licences for these fonts… regards, erik

Ahh yes. That makes sense now. I think you're right, there isn't as much leverage here. Thanks for clarifying! :)
I couldn't agree more, and I hope that they take a good look at your letter. I am using the Vista code font, I can't remember what it's called, and I love it. It looks great.
Thanks again for your tips on Django, I'm working on the templates right now!
I wrote something about this post and the post by Andrei Herasimchuk. I tried to make a trackback but found no way to do it. Regards.
Any news on this topic? Did you get an answer?
The new fonts are also installed as part of PowerPoint Viewer 2007 or the Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack for Word, Excel, and PowerPoint 2007 File Formats.
To install the fonts only, one could run e.g.
FileFormatConverters.exe /quiet /extract:ffc expand -f:*.tt? ffc\*.cab c:\windows\fonts rd /q/s ffc
cabextract -d ffc -LF*.cab FileFormatConverters.exe cabextract -d ~/.fonts -LF*.tt? ffc/*.cab rm -r ffc

Preventing cancer is the best way of reducing the burden of cancer. This is why we are supporting World Cancer Day on 4 February 2014, led by Union for International Cancer Control (UICC).
With the number of cases of cancer around the world estimated to increase to 19.3 million by 2025, we are uniting with organisations around the world to highlight the global campaign to debunk the damaging myths about cancer for this year's World Cancer Day.
Action needs to be taken now to support policies and programmes that help people make healthy choices. So WCRF International and the WCRF Network of charities are working to influence policy and implement health information programmes to give people the information that will help them reduce their cancer risk.

Good morning Bills Fans,
This Joe is going to be a little controversial, so I apologize to the administrators in advance. There is a chance that this might get removed, so I rather not waste my time and put too much analysis in to the discussion. So I'll try not to write any buzz words that might signal the administrators, and I will refrain from giving my opinion since its such a sticky topic.
I'm sure all of you have already read or heard about Mike Florio article on Manti Teo and the questions that teams may have in regards to his sexual preference.
I want to gauge the opinions of my fellow Bills fans here on Rumblings. This blog has the most knowledgeable and educated fans that I've ever encountered, and I want to get your opinions on the matter.
I guess my questions are:
How far is too far?
Does NFL teams have the right to ask that question?
Should the NFL and Roger Goodel get involved?
What can be done to resolve this issue?

Proprietà, controllo e trasferimenti nelle imprese italiane.Cosa è cambiato nel decennio 1993-2003?
AbstractThis paper analyzes the results of two surveys conducted by the Bank of Italy in 2003, respectively among 1,900 and 500 Italian firms, on ownership structures, control and control transfers of non-listed firms, building upon similar surveys carried on in 1993. The aim of the research is to assess the degree and the directions of changes in control patterns of industrial firms in Italy. The data show that ownership concentration, as measured by various indicators, is high and that direct family control of firms is prevalent. Separation between ownership and control is limited. Financial institutions (including private equity) rarely own capital stakes or play a role in controlling non-financial firms. Ownership of a firm by another firm is widespread, especially for bigger firms; ultimate owners are usually families. Foreign ownership and control of Italian firms is growing. Overall, relatively small changes in the patterns of ownership and control have occurred over the decade (1993-2003). The market for corporate control has not developed significantly; it remains based on personal contacts. Financial institutions do not play a relevant role in it; transactions are usually mediated by legal and accounting professionals. Many firms will deal with generational transfers of control in the near future.

But I want to give thanks and congratulations to Mr. Tom Ziller and SacTown Royalty. Since I found the site almost four years ago, it has been the absolute epicenter of information regarding the Kings, and all things related to the team, from politics and the arena, to asinine trade speculation and Pookey losing his shit on draft day.
A lot of people deserve kudos for today's agreement, KJ, Commissioner Stern, and yes, even the Maloofs. Of course, there are so many more, Carmichael Dave putting a local (if radio) face on the movement, James Ham and everyone involved in Small Market, Big Heart. It's a wonderfully long list, and even if I could know all the names, I'm sure I could never peck them out into a FanPost.
I think over time, we've become aware of how respected Tom is within the sportswriting/blogging community, which certainly does the site credit, but also those of us who read it for accurate information and intelligent perspective. I have conversations with friends about the Kings, and whether it's free agency, land swaps, or city council votes, people always marvel at how I stay on top of the facts, especially when there is so much rumor and innuendo surrounding all of it. I tell them to take a look at SacTownRoyalty.com.
I would be remiss in not personally thanking Tom's excellent choices of editors in Aykis, section214, and Exhibit G, and even rbiegler, who is one of the funniest people on the intarwebs, and ought to come around more often. This is a smart and capable crew that isn't afraid to dig for accurate information, and never fails to present it in an interesting and entertaining fashion. The quality of the site reflects your vision, integrity, and passion for the purple.
Lastly, thank you to all of the commenters, even the ones I disagree with. When you assert something I think is wrong, I scour for info to prove you wrong. So, you make me better and more knowledgable! There are many of you who could very well have your own column or site, but I'm glad you choose to contribute here, because when I have too many sites bookmarked, it makes me feel dirty.
Congratulations to all of you! For me, it has been six long years (since Q&R) that I have been anxious about losing the team, and also about never bringing positive change to this great city that so many of us are lucky to call home. You wrote the letters, went to the games, got out in front of cameras, and stormed council meetings. You did it! I can't wait to see all of you at the first StR night in the rail yards!

Taxation and Development: What Have We Learned from Fifty Years of Research?
AbstractWe have learned a great deal about taxation and development over the last half-century. However, we still have much to learn. Even the best research answers to particular questions have usually turned out to be extremely difficult to apply in practice. Over the past fifty years what might be called the standard approach to tax and development has undergone a number of major model changes over the years but no magical fiscal medicine suitable for all has been found. In this brief paper I first attempt to provide a perspective on a half century of work and then to note some questions that seem to call for more research. I emphasize that even the best research is only one of many inputs in shaping public policy and suggest that to some extent the task we face is perhaps not so much to improve research on tax and development as it is to improve how we market what we learn to those who can, if they wish, put the knowledge to use. What is needed is less a non-existent 'universal fix' than a fiscal medicine kit containing a variety of remedies and treatments that may help developing countries to cope with the wide variety of fiscal problems that arise at different times and often in different ways.

Wherein I Challenge Ann Coulter to Debate Me
by Maryscott OConnor, Wed Aug 17, 2005 at 10:01:27 AM EDT
That's right, Ms. Coulter. I hereby issue you a challenge: Meet me in St. Louis, or wherever you please - and let's have ourselves an honest-to-goodness debate.
Now, I realise that the concepts of both "honesty"and"goodness" are foreign to you, but you can do the research, right? -- you're a big girl.
(Metaphorically and chronologically, of course -- god forbid you take that phrase literally and make the panicky teenaged decision to eschew even the meagre sustenance you've allowed yourself thus far. By the by, Ann - may I call you Ann? - where on earth did you get the idea that heroin chic was still fashionable? My god, woman, that is SO 1993).
Where was I? Oh, yes - a debate. `Twixt you and me, Annie baby. We can find ourselves a suitably impartial moderator - say, anyone who hasn't ever seen you or read you. I wouldn't want the inevitable revulsion of any sentient being to your previous work to create a bias in my favour.

Since opening in 1975, Candlelight Dance Club has chased a single, unwavering mission: to curate an appreciation for ballroom dance while teaching its many styles. Six instructors stand ready to lead dancers through training to conquer foxtrot, swing, tango, waltz, and rumba steps. By offering both private and group lessons, Candlelight combines one-on-one attention from an instructor with group sessions that provide more camaraderie than a firefighting team moonlighting as a cheerleading squad. A bright, wood-floored studio hosts classes as well as the club's weekly dance parties, which allow participants to try out learned moves in real time before debuting them in public. Many dance enthusiasts note a handful of dance-inspired benefits as their confidence shines, stress fizzles, and cardio endurance boosts.
Music Dance Drama, three specialized departments and so much to offer busy families who want expertise and convenience. COMAD is a place where memories are made and students learn in a nurturing environment.

Himself a Hollywood veteran, Glincosky employs a stable of experienced instructors including acting teachers who have worked with the likes of Tom Cruise, Denzel Washington, Ron Pearlman, and Martin Scorcese. Classes are offered throughout the week, covering scene work, audition tactics, and how to cry on command when the maitre d' can't find an empty table.

As we move toward a new millennium, we must face a bitter truth. For African people born and raised in this country, the 20th century has meant the transformation and the continuation of the same greedy, racist policies that kept our ancestors enslaved. Our relationship with the U.S. government is still one of domination and forced subordination, using the cruelest forms of repression, the most sophisticated techniques of mind control, based on vicious lies and distortions. The U.S. government not only uses its military, economic, political and propaganda machinery to dominate and exploit black people and other oppressed people inside its borders, it uses the same system to try to dominate and exploit entire countries, and subjugate huge portions of the world's population. I don't have to talk about the terrible oppression our people are living under, you know that better than i do. Many of us who believed that we could work for change inside the system, have discovered that we were only working under it, the same system that denies us our basic liberties, our human rights and opposes our quest for social justice and human development. In the hostile reality that we are facing it is evident the only solutions are radical solutions - radical changes in the priorities, and in the political and economic structure of the U.S. government.*
More than at any other time in the last 20 years, millions of black people are crying out for change, for self determination, for principled leadership and for a genuinely democratic movement. I am elated and very proud that so many seasoned political activists have risen to the occasion and come together to try and meet the many challenges that we as a people are facing. Our commitment to social change represents our commitment to the future. We have an heavy historical duty that we must fulfill, but is a beautiful and noble task. It is not easy to build a growing, organized, sustained people's movement, but without such a movement the future of our children is in extreme danger. As in any struggle for social change, there will be many different opinions, and many different approaches. I hope that we have learned enough from the past to minimize our differences and to maximize what we have in common. I hope that we will leave our negativity and pessimism at home, and allow ourselves to be open, to be creative, to be open, to be understanding. I hope that we will differ with love, debate with kindness and take full advantage of the strength and the sweetness of unity. Let us call on the spirit of our ancestors. Let us be humbled by their strength, by their sacrifices and by the beauty and love that they passed down to us.*

Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Customer Reviews Articles & Videos Accessories Our take on the PSB SubSeries 5i by Kristen Schaub Why add a powered subwoofer? A powered subwoofer gives you bass you can feel as well as hear. Our customers love the depth and impact their subs add to music and movies. We hear comments like "it brings out sounds I didn't know existed in discs I've watched a million times." Powered subwoofers aren't just for big bass that rattles your picture frames; they can also deliver tight, accurate lows. If you haven't shopped for a powered sub in a while, you might be surprised at how small they get. Look for an ultra-compact model if you want to tuck your sub away under an end table or in a corner. Experience tight, punchy bass in your home theater PSB designed the SubSeries 5i to deliver great bass in any small-to-medium room. They carefully designed the 10" woofer and paired it with a 150-watt internal amplifier. The result is extremely tight bass that delivers the punch that high performance home theaters command. Feel the rumble of explosions in your Hollywood blockbusters or hear the crowds roar when you score a goal in your favorite video games. It's great for music, too, like when you want to relax to the taut, tuneful lows of an upright bass from a classic jazz number. Plus, the front-mounted controls make it simple to adjust the volume and crossover frequency on-demand, so you can get the best performance in your room.

Features Overview: The PSB Speakers SubSeries 5i is a powered subwoofer, featuring a front-firing 10" polypropylene cone woofer with a rubber surround. The woofer is driven by a 150-watt RMS (225 watts dynamic, 450 watts peak), Class H/BASH amplifier. The SubSeries 5i has two front-firing 2" ports, a textured black ash vinyl finish, and a removable black cloth grille. The subwoofer is magnetically shielded, so it can be placed near CRT-type TVs without causing picture interference. Auto Power Mode: The subwoofer features a main power switch on the back panel. When switched to On, the subwoofer is initially in stand-by mode, awaiting the presence of an audio signal. When the signal is received, the subwoofer turns on automatically. When no signal is detected, the sub's amp will automatically turn off after approximately 15 minutes. In the Off position, the subwoofer will not power up. A green LED, located on the front panel between the control knobs, will glow when the subwoofer is active. Control Knobs: Two rotary control knobs are provided on the front of the subwoofer. One controls the output level of the subwoofer, relative to the volume of the other speakers in the system. The other control adjusts the high-frequency roll-off of signals sent to the subwoofer. The control is continuously variable from 50 Hz to 150 Hz, and allows you to precisely match the subwoofer's bass production with the main left and right stereo speakers. Phase Control: The phase switch allows for the adjustment of the phase of the subwoofer in relation to the speakers used in the system, either 0 or 180 degrees. Inputs: The SubSeries 5i can be connected by the following methods: Low Level Input: Two gold-plated RCA jacks are provided for connecting your receiver via the low-level input. You can use a single RCA cable to connect the Subwoofer or LFE (low frequency effects) Output from your receiver, preamplifier, or integrated amp. Either the left or right channel inputs can be used. Since most subwoofer/LFE outputs are filtered by most receivers/processors, the subwoofer's variable low-pass filter is usually not required and should be bypassed. This is done by placing the LFE input/Crossover Bypass switch to the Active position. If your receiver or integrated amplifier has preamp outputs, or if you are using a preamplifier without a designated subwoofer/LFE output, the preferred connection is to use a stereo RCA cable plugged into both left and right inputs. If the preamp outputs are unfiltered, the subwoofer's internal crossover should be used and the LFE input/Crossover Bypass switch placed in the "Off" position. Speaker Level In/Out: Two pairs of 5-way binding post terminals (for left and right channel) are provided for connecting the sub with speaker wire. The terminals will accept bare wire, spade lugs, pin connectors, and single or dual banana plugs. The plastic inserts must first be removed from the terminals before using banana plugs. Two additional pairs of 5-way binding post terminals are provided to allow you to run speaker wires from the subwoofer directly to the main speakers, eliminating the need to run wires from the receiver or amplifier to the main speakers. The high-level signal passes through the subwoofer and on to the main speakers unfiltered. Power Cord: The subwoofer has a removable power cord with an IEC 2-pronged connector. This allows you to use a third-party IEC-type power cord, if desired.

When I ordered this sub, I wasn't exactly sure whether the 10" sub would be capable of handling the punch that I like in my music and movies but I have to say I was pleasantly suprised.

Our Take: This Philadelphia incarnation has all of the extravagant services that you might expect from a Four Seasons property. Staff members will bend over backward for you — if they've not already anticipated your request (which is usually the case). Don't hesitate to ask for in-room exercise equipment, milk and cookies or doggie treats for Fido. Located at Logan Square, the hotel makes a great home base for downtown visitors of all ages and interests. Plus, the elegant accommodations, decked with sumptuous down pillows, cozy terrycloth bathrobes, L'Occitane bath products and iPod docking stations (among other amenities), keep recent visitors feeling well rested. And, the flavorful dishes served at the sophisticated Fountain Restaurant are sure to delight the taste buds of even the pickiest of eaters. The only complaint, according to a vocal minority, is that the concierge service is slightly lacking at this Four Seasons outpost.

I still plan on checking in with my Western Conference musings today, but before I get to that, I wanted to share a link that came along from a poster/contributor to this blog. I watched this last night, and planned on bringing it up, but a fan beat me to the punch with the link from YouTube:
(skip ahead to the final 20-30 seconds if you don't want to watch the whole thing)
No, I don't know if what Jalen Rose is saying is legit or not. To my knowledge, Rose and Bosh aren't tight. I'm not saying they don't get along, but I don't think they're buddies; chatting regularly. And I also don't think Rose can say – FOR CERTAIN – that Bosh is leaving Toronto … and here's why …
"What If" …
- Toronto makes it to the playoffs this season and actually advances?
– Makes it to the playoffs next season and advances … far?
– Makes a huge trade this season or this summer that Bosh loves?
– That drastically changes the look and make up of the team?
– Bosh decides he wants the max years/money, and doesn't want to leave $$ on the table?
There are so many "What Ifs".
I truly believe that nobody other than Chris Bosh himself can say FOR SURE what is going to happen at the end of next season. Thus, I think Rose is simply stirring the pot, which his producers at ESPN probably love.
Jalen may have a credible source or multiple sources, but unless his informant is Bosh himself – saying "I AM LEAVING – NO MATTER WHAT" – then I think we need to take Rose's comments with a grain of salt and realize that it might be a spoonful of sensationalism and showmanship.
That's my two cents.

Regardless, he is not giving a definitive answer either way. If we try to re-sign him after his contract is up, we run the chance of losing him (just like we lost T-mac, i.e. for nothing). I say BC gets a feel for want chris wants to do this summer by making him a contract offer/extension…if Chris does not accept or seems like he's not interested in re-singning than we trade him before next season starts. And I'll state this again… trading Chris does not necessarily mean we are rebuilding, but rather re-structuring the team.- Mr. T
After losing MacGrady and Vince Carter, most Rap fans are immune to worrying about who will leave imo .- Chas Calz
If a star wants to leave, why keep him ?
Imagine if we lost Bosh and O'Neal before next season .. Bryan would have approx $40 million in saved salary to play with ..
Keep in mind we're 18-28 with Bosh and O'Neal – under 2 coaches ..No player on a 18-28 team should be considered untradable maybe .
Don't let the door hit ya in the butt on the way out chris!- cbfree!
Have they won anything with Bosh? Let him go to New York and he can make all the commercials he wants. Use that money one someone who won't settle for a fade away jumper when he has a smaller defender on him everytime. I'd rather build the team around Bargs than Bosh.- Joe N.
Bryan Colangelo will get a feel for whether Chris Bosh intends to leave in 2010 or not and he will act accordingly to salvage the situation. Bryan has always treated his players fairly and they have treated him back fairly in return. There is no reason to think that Chris Bosh would not treat the organization well after everything that they have done to appease the guy.- Bane D
i love how Jalen talks as if he has the best source in the league.
it is pretty clear hes doing that to get his producers happy about his "energy" on the screen.- Behzad
Isnt there something in the CBA that Bosh CANT state where/when/what he's doing in terms of playing?- Andrea
What do you mean by – Bosh decides he wants the max years/money, and doesn't want to leave $$ on the table?- andrew
And how much money would Bosh give up if he went to another team?- andrew
One thing we all must keep in mind though – myself included – Jalen's story COULD be legit. Perhaps he DID speak with Bosh. Perhaps his source(s) IS legit.
If that is the case, I mean *IF* that is the case and Jalen is right and Bosh is going no matter what, Bryan Colangelo would have to make a decision on CB4 asap, because his value may be lowered this summer — in that teams that may be interested in trading for him might not give up as much in a package for him, fearing he'll simply leave them in 10-12 months anyway.- E. Smith
FYI … for those that asked … it could be $20+ million Bosh leaves on the table by giving up an extra year. So it's not just more money, but it's that extra year of GUARANTEED money too.
Players might want to consider that a little harder, given the lockout that COULD be coming in 2010/2011- E. Smith
Eric, Jalen must have some credible source. I watch him daily as I'm in LA and he doesn't usually make bold pronouncements on prospective player moves. Can you contact him and explore the basis of his statement?- CM
Bosh should leave and test another markets. He'll be only 26 in July 2010 so why not try a different team and try to win a championship as he'll never win one in Toronto. Let's not be sentimental about sports issues like this, it's just entertainment, no lives on line. Let him go if he chooses to, basketball will continue.- Beburg
bosh is a good player but what happens when he plays Boston or Cleveland or the Laker's and all of the top teams he 's justan average player. Yes hes good but hes not in the same league as the true stars. he's not worth top billing, trade him and get a good draft pick or a good prospect. thanks- dave

Not that they were in the running for his services, but Jonathan Jones comitted to Auburn today over Ga Tech and our friends at Miss St. DB Jones is considered to be the fastest recruit available in Georgia, which is quite the catch and is a very welcome addition to the defensive backfield since we lost out on St Pius CB Geno Smith. Thats got to sting DAWG NASHUN (thats how they spell it , right?) to lose the best DB recruits in Georgia within a week to the behemoths to the west. Hmmm maybe no dream team next year, eh?
And if you weren't overly sure of that Richt is grasping at air like a rowning man.....go check out their uni's for the Boise State game.
If Richt had prior knowledge of the abomination that they intend to wear....and signed off on it.... then he should be immediately fired. Sure thats an over reaction, but seriously go check it out. Lady Gaga would even call it tacky and tasteless. The black uni's look positively moribund in comparison.
When Boise St takes the field against UGA in the kickoff classic, the viewership is likely to plummet as most people will think they somehow stumbled onto the straight to cable release of ROLLERBALL 2. Yes they are THAT bad.
I can't imagine what any DAWG fan over the age of 12 is thinking today, they have to be ashamed that the administration whored out one of the most classic looks in all of college football to Big Pimpin Phil Knight. Have you no shame Dr Adams??? I would be livid if that had been done to our Auburn unis.
And here is a shout out to Gene, Jay, and anybody else listiening in the administration.....DON'T YOU EEEEVVVVER think about whoring out our traditional uni's. EEEEVER!! We lose more and more of our traditions every year and the uni's should always stay the way they are now.....and thats classic.
No amount of money is worth your dignity and I don't think you'll see many DAWG fans with any at the Dome. Once I quit guffawing and cleaned up my vomit off the floor, I actually felt sorry for those poor currs.
