Its Origins and Evolution

moreNew Zealand English - at just 150 years old - is one of the newest varieties of English, and is unique in that its full history and development are documented in extensive audio-recordings. The rich corpus of spoken language provided by New Zealand's 'mobile disk unit' has provided insight into how the earliest New Zealand-born settlers spoke, and consequently, how this new variety of English developed. On the basis of these recordings, this book examines and analyses the extensive linguistic changes New Zealand English has undergone since it was first spoken in the 1850s. The authors, all experts in phonetics and sociolinguistics, use the data to test previous explanations for new dialect formation, and to challenge current claims about the nature of language change. The first ever corpus-based study of the evolution of New Zealand English, this book will be welcomed by all those interested in phonetics, sociolinguistics, historical linguistics and dialectology. less

Korea opens gold trading marketUpdated: 2014-03-24 22:05:04 KST
Korea's first-ever gold exchange market opened its trading doors to the public on Monday.
It offers a place for dealers and private investors to make gold transactions.
One gram units of gold bullion of 99.nine-nine percent purity are bought and sold in the exchange market.
Eight securities firms and 49 futures trading companies have registered and participated in the trading.
Investors can withdraw gold from the exchnage in units of kilograms.
"The trading prices of gold are adjusted in real time, with one gram closing the first day at just over 46-thousand Korean won, or 43-and-a-half U.S. dollars. This is all part of the government's efforts to prevent tax evasion and the illegal trade of the precious metal."
Individuals in Korea own an estimated 700 tons of gold, seven times the amount held by the Bank of Korea.
Nearly 70 tons is thought to be traded each year without being taxed.
The Korea Exchange says transaction fees will be waived until March of next year to help the exchange platform take root.
"It is expected to offer a stable and efficient trading environment for dealers and potential investors and boost the liquidity of gold within the next two years."
The market will be open from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. weekdays.
Gold can be withdrawn from five other Korea Exchange offices outside of the capital city of Seoul.

A Print for C.C.
- My friend was looking for a print of this poem that she read to her son in utero. I designed and hand pulled this print. It was many months of trial and error. At a size of 14"x32" the mechanics, working out of a small home studio, took a lot of figuring out, many mistakes were made but the outcome is well worth it.

In Memory
I'd like to discuss two enjoyable queer films that, despite divergent plots, share several similarities. Test and Five Dances (both released in 2013) take place within the world of modern dance. Each is centered around a young gay protagonist and a possible love story that the characters "dance around" until the film is almost over. Both feature exceptional photography of stunning dance numbers, and each ends so abruptly that you almost wonder if the director ran out of film.
Fade in on an adorable young man who looks like the boy next door. He is obsessed with "Go," a muscular and handsome go-go dancer, whom he has been stalking on a website. He impulsively sends Go a drunken e-mail wherein he pretends that he is filming a documentary about dancers and that he is looking for a subject who can be his "muse." Getting Go, The Go Doc Project is an edgy, yet also at times poignant, look at an introverted young gay man who gets more than he bargained for when he meets his internet fantasy in the flesh.
|While watching 2013's Stranger by the Lake, there were times when I was reminded of The Garden Of Earthly Delights, painted by Hieronymus Bosch. The entire film takes place at a lake in south France that is a popular gay cruising spot. The beach is dotted with nude men sunbathing and there's action aplenty in the surrounding woods. Promiscuity is on parade yet much of this is oddly charming. The forest is a carnal Disneyland, yet innocent as a Garden of Eden. However, like the right hand panel of Bosch's famous triptych, there is also a dark side to paradise.
|Brokeback Mountain is the Citizen Kane of queer cinema. Some films make an impact on their first release only to be forgotten later. This one has lost none of its raw power. Brokeback Mountain was the breakthrough film that we awaited for decades. It was an exquisitely crafted movie, a critical and commercial success, and a surprise crossover hit. Conservative pundits and the family councils all went into apoplexy, jokes were made by comedians, and the mythology of the American cowboy underwent a major revision. But, above all, Brokeback Mountain was a love story that resonated with audiences both gay and straight.
According to popular
legend, playwright Tennessee Williams underwent psychoanalysis in 1957
to "cure" his homosexuality and the play Suddenly
Last Summer
was the result. This is inaccurate; the truth is much more complicated
than that. Many view Suddenly
Last Summer,
especially the film version, as being one of the ultimate artistic
expressions of a self loathing queer. The inclusion of a negatively portrayed
homosexual is hardly proof of this; Williams' fiction is populated with
far more grotesque examples of heterosexuals.
England was not a good time to be gay. The climate was so bad that
noted novelist E.M. Forster began writing a book with a homosexual hero
in 1913 that he never published in his lifetime. That book, of course, is
and, in 1987, Merchant Ivory Productions adapted the book to the screen.
The film
features superb performances and a meticulous attention to period detail.
It is a rich filmgoing experience and one of the most beautiful films in
all of queer cinema.

Welcome to OurAuctions! Vintage Hand Blown Green Jamestown Glass Cruet Pitcher
No Reserve Presenting this Fantastic Vintage Hand Blown Green Jamestown small cruet style pitcher. This is a replica of the original hand blown glass from the Jamestown, Virginia Glasshouse of 1608. The 17th century techniques were used to create this piece. The pitcher has the enchanting bubbles and a pontil mark on the bottom and the sticker designating it as Hand Blown, Jamestown, VA. The cruet pitcher measures 4¾" tall, 3" in width. It has the unusual square shape with rounded corners then tapers into a narrow neck and spout. Fragments of the original green glass have provided the key to proper color and composition, so that the glass has the same appearance today, as it did originally. Each piece is unique and one of a kind, as no two pieces are identical. T is a distinctive mark on the bottom of the glass which is called the pontil mark and is a sign of hand blown glass. This cruet was acquired by my 90 year old grandmother in the early 1970's for her antique store. She says it is time to find it a new china cabinet or shelf in a good home.

Running back Mark Ingram carried the ball six times for 23 yards, highlighted by a 14-yard score.
The rookie first round pick will surely make the starting rotation, along with starter's Pierre Thomas and Chris Ivory, then Payton will throw in running back Darren Sproles for some speed and change of pace in a similar role to what Reggie Bush has in the offense.
Not to be forgotten in the running back mix is Chris Taylor and Joique Bell who are fighting more for a role on the practice squad if anything else.
Now that the Saints have released fullback Heath Evans Korey Hall and Jed Collins will be battling it out for the right to plow holes in opponents defensive lines for the Saints running backs.
The main group of starters are set, but things can change quickly, evident by Monday's release of right tackle Jon Stinchcomb, who wil be replaced with a younger player in Zach Strief. Charles Brown will aslo get a shot at earing the starting right tackle spot.
Coach Payton was quoted as saying it was one of the toughest decisions he has ever had to make, similar to the decision he made in releasing long time standout running back Deuce McAllister.
Following the first week of preseason football games and training camp, there have been a lot of players who are trying to make coach Payton and his coaches take notice, the decisions to release some of these players will be very difficult.
Who knows, with the Saints being $2.688 million under the cap maybe they will now think about re-signing free agent safety Darren Sharper before New England scoops him up.

Huge List Of Highly Extensible Photoshop Plugins
Photoshop plugins are very powerful addons to Adobe Photoshop, which many people seem to forget. Plugins are small extensions to make Photoshop even more extensive while retouching photos, adding simple filter effects and more. I selected separate plugins and featured them, however there were also many huge collections of plugins, so it didn't make sense to copy&paste massive loads of text and images – I just put screenshot and link to them in that case. Hope You'll enjoy this one and feel free to add Your comment about Your favorites and maybe links I didn't list here.
Photoshop plug-ins are .8bf files. After downloading a plug-in, simply place it in the presets>plug-ins folder of the Photoshop's installation folder (creating a folder with a name defining the plug-in & placing the plug-in files inside the folder will make it more organized).Read More

While FAFSA applications and other paperwork will be accepted after these dates, failure to meet these priority deadlines could result in your aid not being ready to pay your bill by the payment deadline. This means you must make other payment arrangements with the TC Business Office to avoid losing your classes for non-payment.
Simply completing the FAFSA by the deadline is NOT considered a complete file because there may be more information required beyond the FAFSA application.
Check for missing documents:
The federal government selects about half of FAFSA applications for a process called "verification" in which colleges must confirm (verify) the self-reported information you provided on the FAFSA. To check for missing documents for the 2014-2015 (Fall) FAFSA, you should log in to the new Texarkana College Online Financial Aid System.
First-time users should enter their Social Security Number as the Student ID. Then, click the small-print "First Time User" text below (on the picture, circled with a red arrow pointing toward it). You will then be asked to enter some security questions and create a PIN (password) to log in. Once you are logged in to the Financial Aid System, click on the green "Documents" tab near the top of the screen. This will show you the documents we have received, as well as any documents you might still need to turn in.
Please note that this new system only pertains to the new school year beginning in August. Current students attending in Summer 2013 will find all 2013-2014 financial aid information (including any missing documents) in the "Financial Aid" tab of their myTC student account.
Disbursements for Summer 2013-2014
Below are the dates when the Financial Aid Office will begin to release funds for Summer 2014. If there are required documents you have not turned in, then your financial aid award is incomplete, and your particular funds will not disburse. Please note that "disbursement" is not the date you will receive a refund; it is when the money will be applied to your student account (your bill) to reduce or zero out the amount owed. Assuming your financial aid award has been finalized, your financial aid should disburse on the dates listed below.
|Summer I
|June 17, 2014
|Workforce Summer
|June 11, 2014
|Summer II
|July 22, 2014
Half-Time requirement for loans
Federal regulations require a half-time enrollment (6 credit hours) to be eligible for a federal direct loan. If you take 3 hours during Summer I and 3 hours during Summer II, you will not reach the 6 hour requirement until Summer II.
Note for one semester only loans
Federal loan programs must always have two disbursements in any one loan period. The loan period is the first day of the semester through the last day of the semester. First installments will occur after the 6th class day. Second installments will occur after the midpoint of the loan period or the after the middle of the semester.
"When should I get my refund?"
Financial aid recipients may be eligible for a refund if the amount of your financial aid award (grants plus loans) is greater than the amount of your bill (tuition, fees, and money spent at the TC Book Store). If you are eligible, the Business Office will process your refund after classes begin. All refunds require 14 days after disbursement date to process. Refunds for most students will be processed through your Higher One accounts. If you change your registration (add and/or drop courses) after your refund was released to you, this may change the amount of your award and cause you to owe some of the refund money back. You will be required to pay the overage balance.
Check your myTC account for the exact date of your disbursement.
Check your Higher One Account for the arrival of your refunds.
Please note the following changes involving the FAFSA and the Verification process:
IRS Data Retrieval – When filling out the FAFSA, Texarkana College strongly recommends all students, parents, spouses (if applicable) upload their income tax information to their FAFSA using the IRS Data Retrieval tool. This will speed the application process and ensure accuracy.
Tax Return Transcript – Students who are selected for Verification and did not/could not use the IRS Data Retrival Tool will be required to submit an official IRS Tax Return Transcript. Tax Transcripts can be obtained from the IRS at www.irs.gov.
Use The Right FAFSA:
You must complete a new FAFSA every school year you apply for financial aid. It is very important that you complete the FAFSA for the year that corresponds to the semester you want to receive financial aid. (Keep in mind that each FAFSA goes by the academic year, which runs from August to August, rather than the January-to-December calendar year.)
If you plan on attending in Summer 2014, complete the FAFSA for 2013-2014.
If you plan on attending in Fall 2014, complete the FAFSA for 2014-2015.
Financial Aid refunds will be issued to your myTC Card from HigherOne.
Financial aid funds are first used to pay your tuition, fees and books. If there are funds left after your tuition, fees and books are paid, you may be eligible to receive the remaining balance in the form of a refund. Refunds are sent to your myTC Card from Higher One. All students will receive the myTC card, whether they are scheduled to receive financial aid or not. This is not a credit card. This debit MasterCard ensures fast delivery of funds through electronic means.
It is important to activate your myTC Card upon receipt in the mail. Activating your card will prevent any delays in receiving any refunds.
For more information, please visit myTCcard.

Windows 7 32-Bit
Boot Manager & Beeps
Hey all, and thanks in advance for helping me or attempting to!
My laptop [Toshiba Satellite A305-S6905 (got it in 2007)] has been just recently, as in about a week ago, been constantly booting to the Boot Manager upon startup (actually, it literally started happening after I (thought) I removed a virus/trojan/malware from that cursed Farmville on FB spam). It's never done this before. I now have to select "Windows 7 Professional (Recovered)" even though it's the only option there. This laptop was upgraded from Vista to Windows 7 about 1.5 years ago. I understand from some other posts I've read that the Boot Manager popping up is supposedly a "good thing", well now it's just completely annoying and if anyone can help me put a stop to it, that would be great.
My issue doesn't stop there unfortunately
Also about a week ago, I've noticed continuous beeping noises after I select the OS from the Boot Manager and am taken to the "Starting Windows" screen. There are no pauses, there are no short/long beep combos..it's simply continuous beep, beep, beeps and they're never ending until I power off the laptop. Again, none of this started happening until a week ago, and up until then, everything was fine. I've cleaned out the fan units with compressed air, and any dirt/dust. I've been told to try to use an Ultimate Boot CD, but for some reason, my laptop won't boot from a CD (again, something I've never had an issue with before this). I've tried to run the Windows Memory Diagnostic and upon the automatic restarting, I get a black screen and the same loud beeping--no boot manager, no "Starting Windows"...just black screen and beeping.
I've tried researching the beeping but it didn't seem like any of the beep patterns matched my dilemma. I only found ONE post where someone described it as the same as mine..just back-to-back and was thought to be a memory issue. Any help is GREATLY appreciated. (Oh and sorry for the chapter book explanation..I can't help it. I'm a female and we talk a lot )

Gator Bytes
Tag: Ryan Mallett
Is Tim Tebow holding on to the ball too long?
- 2:55 pm Monday, October 19th, 2009 by Post Staff
GAINESVILLE — Tim Tebow not only leads the Florida Gators in rushing attempts this year with 99, but he has more attempts than the next two highest players combined – Jeff Demps (53) and Chris Rainey (41).
Tebow is second on the Gators this season with 378 rushing yards on 3.8 yards per attempt. At his current pace, assuming the Gators play in 14 games this year, Tebow will carry the ball a career-high 231 times.
But many of his carries are not designed runs. If Tebow's first or second options aren't open in the passing game, Tebow has shown a propensity toward tucking the ball and taking it up-field himself instead of going through his progressions and looking for his third and fourth receivers.
"He'll go 1-2 and then get going," Urban Meyer said. "Other quarterbacks maybe go 1-2-3-4, but those same quarterbacks aren't completing at a high percentage and aren't as third down efficient as Florida."
"Tim, like all quarterbacks, does some things great, some things he needs work at. But his ability to get a first down – I counted three in the first half here (against Arkansas), that he got a first down when he put his foot down and went. And that's part of what makes him such a great player."
The Ultimate Preview: No. 1 Florida vs. Arkansas

Windows 7 Professional
Drive not accessible
I am running Windows XP Virtual Machine in Windows 7 Professional (64 bit). From time to time I get the error message "drive is not accessible" with the submessage "incorrect function" when I try to access one of the drives on the host operating system.
The problem occurs reliably when I run Microsoft Developer Studio 4.1 (Visual C++) and work with a project on a drive on the host (e.g. \\tsclient\c). After compiling and running the project, Developer Studio locks up and has to be stopped with the Task Manager. As soon as I exit Developer Studio, I can access the drive again.
The computer is a Lenovo W510 with an i7 820QM processor and 8 GB RAM>
I am very disappointed that the Virtual is so unstable. I have a number of older programs that I need to run on this computer for my business. Any suggestions?

Ideally sized for a small galley, the device measures 6.3 inches wide, 12 inches high and 10.8 inches deep, and weighs 26.45 pounds. Features include a nonpressurized hot-water boiler, three-way electro-valve control, over-temperature automatic shutdown, low-water automatic shutdown, no-water LED indicator and electrical circuit-breaker. Iacobucci marketing manager Gwendoline Legrand says it makes a perfect cup of espresso.
The espresso maker can be attached to Iacobucci's new 2.2-liter independent auxiliary water container, ensuring a pure source of water. Both devices are on display at the Iacobucci booth (No. 1547). [Iacobucci HF Electronics is not related to Ed Iacobucci, founder of VLJ air taxi service DayJet. –Ed.]

before i lose my style: American Captain Presents: Yellin' About Art
Well, folks, this is an epic comic of epic length by American Captain standards. I don't know what I was doing, I guess I just really didn't want to work on my thesis.
I hope the way I have posted it will work, but bear with me if it doesn't - I have a…
I feel like you're right, in that Marvel Time has to be nebulous because it's better that way - for all intents and purposes Cap has been de-iced for ten years, but he was also around in the seventies. Tony trod on that landmine/shell/whatever in… probably 2003 now… but if he has to have watched the moon landing as a kid for a story to work, then he did. If the FF need to have made their space trip in 1963 for a story to have thematic resonance, they did. Theme trumps any 'realism' a sliding timescale can provide.
I feel that's a superior tactic for dealing with what is basically a problem unique to long-running corporate-owned fictional universes than DC's 'Crisis Crisis Crisis ALL THE TIME FOREVER' strategy - Marvel Time is soft and bends moment to moment, DC's is hard and periodically breaks and has to be glued together haphazardly.

What's the future of DNA technology in beef industry?
The use of DNA technology—past, present and future—in beef cattle will be addressed at a June 7 conference at the U.S. Meat Animal Research Center in Clay Center.
Attendees will learn about recent advances in the application of DNA technology as it relates to making selection decisions in beef cattle, said Matt Spangler, UNL Extension beef genetics specialist.
This will include how this information is used in combination with expected progeny differences in some breeds, the benefits of parentage testing, economic considerations of using this technology and issues in which scientists are exploring.
All cattle producers, educators and affiliated industry personnel who have a vested interest in the genetic improvement of cattle are encouraged to attend, Spangler said.
Speakers at the meeting include Spangler; Alison Van Eenennaam, animal genomics and biotechnology extension specialist at the University of California-Davis; Sally Northcutt, genetic research director at AGI, Bob Weaber, extension beef genetics specialist at the University of Missouri; Larry Keuhn, research scientist at the U.S. Meat Animal Research Center, and Steve Kachman, professor, statistics, UNL.

VIDEO: Moses, a year old frenchie with CH, exploring a SF Park!
Moses came to us about 6 weeks ago..... he's been in a few wonderful foster homes... but today we got to take him to a park...
You see, Moses does really well on grass... he needs a home with a yard and very few steps.... he's SO cool, and so much fun.... and darn it, he really deserves a home! Moses has Cerebellar Hypoplasia... he will not get worse... but he'll always be 'wobbly'... he is healthy in EVERY way....
You can see photos of Moses in the 'adoptable dogs' section... but here's today's video!

BracketVoodoo is an advanced tool that can evaluate any March Madness bracket and give you the best bracket for your men's NCAA Tournament pool
The short answer to this question is… maybe. Picking all of the favorites in the first round definitely maximizes your chances of getting as many first round picks correct as possible. But depending on how all of the potential matchups break down in subsequent rounds, it may not be optimal (in the sense of maximizing your chances of a perfect bracket.)
To see why, let's consider a simplified example of four teams. Say those teams are Syracuse, Robert Morris, George Washington, and Gonzaga (the top left quadrant in Jerry Palm's projected bracket as of Monday). For simplicity, let's just assume that Syracuse beats Robert Morris. Then the question becomes, which is most likely to happen: 1) GW beats Gonzaga and then Syracuse beats GW or 2) Gonzaga beats GW and then Syracuse beats Gonzaga. (Presumably Syracuse winning in the 2nd round is more likely than an upset by either of the other teams, so we can eliminate those possibilities too.)
Syracuse would be favored against either Gonzaga or GW, but let's just assume that Gonzaga matches up much better against Syracuse than GW does, so Syracuse would have a 70% chance of beating GW, but only a 60% chance of beating Gonzaga. Let's also assume that Gonzaga also has a 53% chance of beating GW.
If I were to pick favorites throughout the bracket, I would pick Gonzaga over GW and then Syracuse over Gonzaga. That outcome would have a 31.8% chance of playing out (53% * 60%). On the other hand, GW beating Gonzaga and then getting beat by Syracuse has a 32.9% chance of occurring (47% * 70%). Thus, the most likely complete sub-bracket here involves Gonzaga being upset (albeit slightly).
How realistic is this scenario? These sorts of things can happen, especially when other circumstances come into play (say hypothetically the second game here were going to be played in Spokane, giving Gonzaga a huge relative advantage over GW). Nonetheless, they don't tend to be major factors, so generally picking the favorites to win in each round as you fill out your bracket will be near optimal in terms of maximizing your expected number of correct picks in a bracket game (note: not necessarily optimal in terms of maximizing your expected score, but we will get into that later), as well as maximizing your chances of that elusive "perfect bracket."
It may not maximize your chances of actually winning a billion dollars though, because odds are, you won't be the only person following this strategy. So in the off off off chance all 63 of your picks come in, you will actually have to split the money.
