Statements in the House
Tougher Penalties for Child Predators Act November 20th, 2014
Mr. Speaker, as my colleague is the father of two young girls, I am the grandfather of three beautiful grandchildren who live not in Mississauga but in Waterloo, and I also want them to feel and be safe. I do not think that any of us here in this chamber would not agree that we want our children and grandchildren to be safe in this country. This is very important.
I mentioned in my speech that the Minister of Justice did a lot of travelling in Canada, organizing and taking part in round tables and getting information from different groups. He came to Mississauga. We had a meeting with the great police force that we have, the Peel Regional Police. They were very supportive of this bill. We also had a great discussion about how to improve the safety of our children, how to protect them, and how to protect our citizens.
I would like to say that this is a truly great police force that works with the community and works for the safety of the community.
Tougher Penalties for Child Predators Act November 20th, 2014
Mr. Speaker, if I can give an example, the spouse's denial of responsibility for child pornography on a shared home computer is necessary to get the conviction of the accused. Therefore, this is a change we are making.
Child pornography is something that is relatively new, and it has grown over the years since we have had the Internet. It has been growing ever since. This is a crime that was not committed as often before this tool became available for the perpetrators. Therefore, it is important that we go after those who commit that terrible crime and that we use all the tools necessary to get a conviction.
Tougher Penalties for Child Predators Act November 20th, 2014
Mr. Speaker, as I mentioned in my speech, the list of exceptions in the Canada Evidence Act making the spouse of a person accused of any of the child pornography offences compellable to testify for the prosecution would help to get the person who commits the crime to receive a sentence and serve the sentence. That is the change in the act that we are introducing.
Tougher Penalties for Child Predators Act November 20th, 2014
Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to rise today in support of Bill C-26.
Each day, in Canada, children are the victims of sexual abuse. It causes unimaginable devastation to their lives and it causes lifelong emotional turmoil that profoundly affects victims well into adulthood.
Our government pledged to protect Canadians and keep them safe, especially the most vulnerable among us: our children. This legislation is one way we are fulfilling that promise.
The proposed new measures would help better protect children from a range of sexual offences, including child pornography. Furthermore, they would help ensure that offenders receive sentences that better reflect the serious nature of these crimes.
Over the summer and fall of last year, the Minister of Justice met with Canadians across the country. In those meetings, there was one central theme: victims wanted a stronger voice in the justice system and sentences that truly reflect the crime committed. Today, this legislation illustrates that we listened and that we are delivering for Canadians.
For example, we are seeking an end to sentence discounts for multiple child sexual offences. Sexual predators would receive sentences that take into account each young life that they have devastated.
The legislation would also ensure that those sentenced at the same time for child pornography and for contact child sexual offences, especially those who have victimized more than one child, would serve their sentences consecutively—in other words, one after another.
In general, concurrent sentences are imposed and served simultaneously for two or more convictions that arise out of one continuous criminal act or single transaction. These sentences are based on what is referred to as the "same event or series of events" rule.
Conversely, consecutive sentences are imposed and served one after another for multiple convictions when the offences are unrelated, as they arise out of separate criminal transactions.
The concepts of concurrent and consecutive sentencing predate Confederation. Amendments over the years have complicated the statement of the rule contained in the Criminal Code to the point that it offers little guidance to courts.
To address this deficiency, the proposed amendments would direct a court to consider ordering, where applicable, that the sentences it imposes be served consecutive to a sentence of imprisonment that the offender is subject to at the time of sentencing. Where the court sentences the offender for multiple offences at the same time, the proposed amendments would direct courts to consider ordering that the terms of imprisonment for offences arising out of separate events or a separate series of events be served consecutively.
Bill C-26 would also increase minimum and maximum penalties for certain child sexual offences, and there would be increases in the maximum penalties for violations of supervision orders. Canadians want those who violate the conditions of their probation orders, prohibition orders, and peace bonds held to account.
Moreover, these measures would ensure that the spouse of a person charged with child pornography offences could also be required to testify in court.
Under the Canada Evidence Act and under common law, unless spouses are irreconcilably separated, the spouse of a person accused of most offences cannot testify for the prosecution, even if they want to, as they are not competent, and they cannot be forced to testify against their spouse, as they are not compellable.
The Canada Evidence Act contains statutory exceptions to these rules, permitting spousal testimony for most child sexual offences and for offences of violence against young persons, but not for child pornography offences.
The amendments proposed through this bill would also add child pornography, section 163.1, to the list of exceptions in the Canada Evidence Act, subsection 4(2), making the spouse of a person accused of any of the child pornography offences compellable to testify for the prosecution. In child pornography cases, the evidence of the accused's spouse may be required to prove the guilt of the accused. For example, the spouse's denial of responsibility for child pornography on a shared home computer may be necessary to prove the accused's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
These changes are necessary and have been long in coming. Statistics tell us so, but more so the stories of victims. A report by the Canadian Centre for Justice Statistics showed that in 2012 more than 3,900 sexual offences against children were reported to police in Canada. That is an increase of 3% from 2011.
As a society, we must do what it takes to protect our children and help them heal. Today, we are standing up for the vulnerable and showing them that their voices are being heard in our justice system. This legislation is in keeping with our commitments in the 2013 Speech from the Throne to punish those who break the law, to match penalties to the severity of the crimes, and to ensure that the rights of victims come before the rights of criminals. It follows up on our previous actions, through legislation such as the Safe Streets and Communities Act, to better protect our children.
Our government also recognizes that bullying and cyberbullying are serious concerns for many Canadian families and communities, and we are committed to doing everything we can to protect our children. That is why, last year, we acted to protect children and other vulnerable Canadians from this degrading behaviour by introducing Bill C-13, the protecting Canadians from online crime act. Our government has also provided funding to create and enhance child advocacy centres across the country to help young victims and witnesses cope with the trauma they have experienced and to better navigate the often-complicated criminal justice system.
Despite our differences in this chamber, I believe we can all agree that nothing is more reprehensible than harming a child. Our government is deeply committed to strengthening the justice system to ensure that sexual offenders who prey on children are punished to the fullest extent of the law. Bill C-26 would send a signal that we as a society do not accept this kind of behaviour in our communities, and it would allow the justice system to better respond to the needs of child victims and their families.
In reviewing speeches from my hon. colleagues across the way, I understand that they have some concerns about mandatory minimum sentences. That said, they have agreed that this bill should go to the committee for further study, and I could not agree more. I hope that the opposition will work with us in giving this bill a thorough examination. I believe, at the end of the day, we can mend our differences for the sake of our children.
Taxation November 20th, 2014
Mr. Speaker, it comes as no surprise that the Liberal party is looking to recruit big tax, big spending candidates. The beer and popcorn campaign is up and running and the Liberal candidate for Banff has extended it to cars and TVs.
Our government believes that Canadian families ought to be trusted to spend their hard-earned money as they deem necessary. The family tax cut would help 100% of families with children by putting more money in their pockets and giving families the freedom to spend it as they want. We are proud that over four million families will benefit by an average of over $1,100 per year.
We should all be cheering for that.
Petitions November 20th, 2014
Mr. Speaker, I have the honour to present a petition on behalf of Canadians who are asking the government to change the current impaired driving laws in Canada. In the interest of public safety of Canadian citizens, they are asking for tougher laws and the implementation of new mandatory minimum sentences for those convicted of impaired driving causing death.
Petitions November 5th, 2014
Mr. Speaker, I am honoured to rise in the House to present a petition on behalf of Canadians.
The petitioners are asking for the current impaired driving laws to be changed and made tougher. They are asking for the implementation of new mandatory minimum sentences for those persons convicted of impaired driving causing death.
They are also asking that the Criminal Code of Canada be changed to redefine the offence of impaired driving causing death to vehicular manslaughter.
Economic Action Plan 2014 Act, No. 2 October 30th, 2014
Mr. Speaker, I am not quite sure what he is talking about regarding the government giving cash to businesses instead of incentives. Maybe he forgot, but one of the great incentives is the hiring tax credit. That is given to businesses to hire new people. That is an incentive. This is an incentive for the businesses to grow. Therefore, we do not have a policy to throw money at businesses. Yes, our policy is to give all kinds of incentives for businesses, to help them grow, not to burden them with higher taxes.
Economic Action Plan 2014 Act, No. 2 October 30th, 2014
Mr. Speaker, as I stated in my speech, there is always a concern of my constituents and those of other members, people across Canada, about how efficiently the tax dollars that they contribute are spent. Of course, as I mentioned in my speech, we are working very hard so that the tax dollars are spent wisely, and also that we give our businesses opportunities to grow, that we do not burden them with different taxes and rising taxes, and that we give them a competitive edge on every front.
Of course there is room for improvement, and that is why we will be working every day on improving the way businesses can work and compete on the world market.
Economic Action Plan 2014 Act, No. 2 October 30th, 2014
Mr. Speaker, I am honoured to have an opportunity to participate with my parliamentary colleagues in the debate on Bill C-43. I will be splitting my time with the member for Newmarket—Aurora.
Throughout the past number of months, especially during the summer break, I spent a lot of time going door to door in the neighbourhoods of the riding I represent. Often residents were surprised to see me at the door during a non-election period but appreciated the opportunity to be served by their member. I appreciated the opportunity to listen to the concerns and questions of my constituents and to see if there was something my office could assist them with.
There were some common themes that I heard from my constituents. People are concerned about their families, friends, and neighbours. They want to ensure that they all have a job to go to each day. They want to know if they will be able to afford to feed their families and provide them with a safe home. They want to ensure that the portion of their hard-earned income that goes to taxes is being used efficiently and wisely.
Our government continues to work hard to create jobs, keep taxes low, and help make our streets and communities safer.
With respect to jobs, I would like to mention that we have the best record in the G7, as has been mentioned often but deserves repeating. We have recovered every job we lost during the recession. Better yet, 1.1 million new jobs have been created in Canada since the depths of the recession, over 80% of which are full time. That is progress because every single one of those jobs means something important to someone, fathers or mothers, young people who are starting their career, or new Canadians who are committed to doing their part in their new country of Canada.
We are working hard to help students and apprentices. I recently had an opportunity to visit the Electrical College of Canada in my riding of Mississauga East—Cooksville. The college prepares its students with the hands-on, practical application of electrical theory and safety knowledge to get students started toward achieving an electrician licence. During this meeting I heard from the instructors and leaders about the demand for skilled trades, as well as the need for opportunities for young people to apply their practical hands-on skills. There were a number of young men and woman who were learning a trade, which they were excited about, and they were excited about where it would take them. Economic action plan 2014 would help our skilled trades. Apprentices registered in eligible trades would be eligible for loans that would be interest free until their training ends.
We recently recognized our small-business owners and employees during Small Business Week, those who work hard and take risks in order to create jobs and move our economy. I want to thank the hard-working people in our community who run small businesses. Despite the economic challenges, these business owners are committed to providing jobs and spur our economy. With that in mind, our government recently announced the small business job credit to lower payroll taxes on small business by 15%. The hard-working people of the riding I represent, Mississauga East—Cooksville, can be assured that we will continue to work on the mission of creating the conditions for new and better jobs across all sectors of our economy.
Earlier I mentioned the comments I heard from my constituents who are concerned about their taxes being used wisely, and the costs of living and raising a family.
The cost of raising a family adds up quickly. Our Conservative government understands these challenges. That is why we have worked to lower taxes, cutting the GST to 5% and cutting personal income taxes, and thousands and thousands of Canadians are taking advantage of the tax-free savings account that our government brought forward. Let us not forget the universal child care benefit, the children's art tax credit, and the children's fitness tax credit.
There is an old expression that goes something like this: active children are healthy children. Canada's Minister of State for Sport recently visited my riding for a tour of the Mississauga Valley Community Centre. He had a very good discussion with some of the sports and recreation representatives in the community about the importance of activity to young people. I certainly believe that to be true, and so does our government. Regular exercise is essential to children's development and to get them started on a lifetime of healthy and active living.
With that in mind, our Conservative government introduced the children's fitness tax credit, which provides nearly 1.5 million Canadian families with tax relief, an incentive to keep their children active. Further to this, I am very proud of our government's recent announcement of the doubling of the children's fitness tax credit amount to $1,000.
With all these tax cuts, credits, and supports by our Conservative government, the average family of four now saves nearly $3,400 a year.
Families also want to know that they are safe in our communities. Of course, we must first thank our police and peace officers for all they do. Our government is doing its part to make sure the system puts the interests of law-abiding Canadians and the victims of crime first. We are toughening laws and supporting programs in this regard.
I want to recognize the Minister of Status of Women, who visited my riding in September and joined with Ms. Ashley Lyons, executive director of Safe City Mississauga, for a special announcement.
The minister announced more than $166,000 in funding support to help prevent and eliminate cyber-violence against women and girls in Mississauga and the Region of Peel. This is one example among many of our government continuing to take concrete actions to protect Canadians from all forms of violence.
Locally in Mississauga, we are seeing job growth and infrastructure investment in our community, thanks to our government's focus on reducing red tape while increasing investment in skills training.
The City of Mississauga has received nearly $126 million of federal funding through the gas tax fund since 2006. I will add to this that the Region of Peel gas tax fund is at nearly $213 million since 2006. This is a long-term, predictable, and environmentally stable source of funding that has helped with major projects, including Mississauga's accessible transit fleet and the transit campus.
I want to quickly share an email that I received recently from the City of Mississauga for the opening of the Mississauga Transitway:
As an important partner in the Transitway Project, I would like to personally invite you to...the official opening ceremony. It's our way of saying thank you for your commitment to the Mississauga Transitway Project.
I am looking forward to joining with my Mississauga and Region of Peel colleagues for this special event. Indeed, this is a government that is investing in our communities, our people, and our future.
Canadians can be pleased that this budget contains no new taxes on families and businesses, while also continuing to ensure government spending is efficient and as effective as possible.
We will always put consumers first, expanding choice and reducing costs and keeping taxes low. We are helping and supporting families. We will always put Canada first, celebrating and defending our country and working to keep Canadians safe in their communities.
These are the priorities of the hard-working people whose doorsteps I visited throughout the summer and fall, and these are also the proud commitments of our government. I would ask all members of this House to vote in support of Bill C-43.

I took the plunge. I'm in for the early show on April 30. I had to skip Coachella in 2008 so this will be my first time seeing him. Can't believe I just dropped that much on one ticket.

I took the plunge. I'm in for the early show on April 30. I had to skip Coachella in 2008 so this will be my first time seeing him. Can't believe I just dropped that much on one ticket.
What bothers me about it is that you're not paying $277 for like an epic three-hour set. Since he's doing two shows a night, you're probably going to get an hour, hour and fifteen. I mean, I like Prince and all, but that's almost a mortgage payment.
No way I can justify paying that. Oh well.
I do like the Vegas workaround faxy is pulling. $110/ticket for floor.
well this eases the coachella blues! a showing of pee-wee's big adventure in tempe on 4/13. I'M THERE!
Is anyone up at MMMF right now??
what a sad world we live in where mumford & sons counts as the "biggest booking".
^right? Jesus, that band needs to go away...
The Roots destroyed downtown last night. Best hip hop show I've ever seen.
A nice couple gave us their wristbands as they were leaving yesterday afternoon. Security was virtually non-existent. So many people walked right into the fest with booze. Glad we decided to check it out, hopefully they were successful enough to hold it again next year.
It seems like MMMF did fine. Talked with a member of Dry River Yacht Club on Saturday and he said organizers had expected 4,000 on Friday and the final count ended up being 7,000. Saturday's attendance looked pretty good once it got later in the day. I didn't go Sunday so I'm not sure how it was. I would imagine it was the lightest crowd of the weekend though. Anybody go yesterday that can comment on how big the crowd was?
the pics on my facebook news feed looked fairly light, but they also seemed to be from earlier in the day.
The "big announcement" was in fact Mumford & Sons. Playing Desert Sky Pavilion on June 5.
If anyone has a line on coachella weekend 1 tix and lodging for face or lower lemme know.
Scratch the Coachella tickets. I have secured me one with onsite camping. I will be there weekend 1!
I have a ticket to Sigur Ros Friday April 12th. Front Row Balcony Section 202 Row 1. $50. It's a hard ticket if anyone is interested.
Also, 1 ticket to Postal Service Ticketfast ticket. Section 4 row 20. Less than face. $40. Hit me up if you are interested in either of these.
I just received the Stateside Presents newsletter and see the Presets are playing Marquee Theatre on Monday May 20th.
Thanks Ivy!
That Presets show is going to be empty as fuck.
lol presets and dragonette? did i book this show myself?
but yeah, shit's gonna be empty.
Damn, Monday night. I'm trying to not do weeknight shows.
Who went to McDowell Mtn fest? Any reviews, sound, crowd, acts, organization?
You may as well stop going to shows altogether, Jen.
Is anyone going to Of Montreal? I saw that Adrienne is going and I might buy a ticket too.

Beta result
Find a Conversation
|Thu, 08-21-2008 - 6:49pm
Okay gang- so the beta was a bfn... no surprises here but there was a little part of me that was hoping it was going to be good news. I just can't believe that I can't get pregnant. Every now and again it hits me that something that my body is supposed to do, can't or won't. I have fertility issues!!! So, I'm sad... but I am focusing on our trip and can really hit the gym hard so I look somewhat decent in a bathing suit. (If it had been a bfp, I would of had an excuse for having a little pudge in my bikini! LOL!!!)
So, in an attempt to keep my spirits up, here are my positives for it being a BFN- no more suppositories!, no more hormones for a while, I can work out really hard at the gym (run, bike, lift weights), I can drink Lava Flow's and Mai Tai's in Maui, I can parasail in Maui, I don't have to worry about morning sickness.
The RE said for the next protocol they will double the amount of Menopur so maybe that will help. DH and I are probably going to take a few months off and not do another protocol until after the new year. Emotionally, I need some time off and financially we need to get our credit card balance down before we can move on.
Does anyone know if there are any cons to not doing protocols back to back? Would waiting make our chance even more slim? I'll be 37 in October and part of me feels like if we wait, my chances will decrease even more due to my age and then another part of me feels like "I'm already infertile so what does age matter?"
|Thu, 08-21-2008 - 7:37pm
First of all, I am sorry about the BFN. I know that it is hard. Second, I read and my RE told me that each cycle is independent of each other and it does not increase your chances if they are back to back. Enjoy Maui and my thoughts and prayers are with you.
|Thu, 08-21-2008 - 8:19pm
A BFN is always hard to take even when you suspect it will be, I am sorry.
|Thu, 08-21-2008 - 9:41pm
Melinda ((((HUGS)))) I know hearing BFN is hard, especially after a treatment.
|Sat, 08-23-2008 - 11:08am

Details on Industry Insight.
Shop-eat-surf sat down with the team from Element Eden to talk about what's new for Spring 2011, including its new T-shirt push.
Fashion T-shirts are a new category for Element Eden and the company is skipping graphic styles in favor of solid colors in new silhouettes and finishes. The Conscious by Nature premium T-shirt collection is made in the U.S. out of sustainable materials.
"It's the most basic you can get, yet it's a staple in everyone's closet," said Design Director Wendy Choi. "What sets us apart is that there's a definite character to every piece we produce."
To get it into customers' hands, Element Eden is relying on its relationship with media and an established advocates program, which promotes the company's desire to make a difference in the world and inspire girls. Among the advocates are artists Amber B and Miya Ando as well as double leg amputee and athlete Amy Purdy.
"They all have passions that are true to Eden lifestyle," said Marketing Director Vince De La Pena.
Customers can read all about it on the brand's blog, one of several digital tools in Element Eden's marketing.
"Making that a priority is definitely an investment into who our brand is," De La Pena said, adding that traffic on the blog has tripled since last year.
The response to social media efforts has also been on the rise, especially that the brand makes an effort to connect to retailers where the clothes are available.
"We want to make sure that they feel like they have a connection with the brand so they can bring that connection to the customer," said Marketing Coordinator Alexandra Swanson.
But the company isn't abandoning print advertising anytime soon. Element Eden works closely with Teen Vogue, incorporating digital platforms such as click to buy and iPhone applications to communicate the brand's message and make it easier for customers to shop.
De La Pena said this approach has been successful for Element Eden in the past year.
Meanwhile, the company is enjoying a good back-to-school season, which bodes well for the holidays, said VP of Merchandising Kim Hall.
As usual, the brand is having success with its fleece and sweaters, but it's also seeing growth in the knit department. Hall said bookings for back-to-school were up compared to last year.
Like many other brands, Element Eden is looking for ways to respond to trends quicker and regain some of the business from stores such as Forever 21 and H&M.
Hall said they are considering increasing the domestic portion of the line and creating something for between seasons.
"It's something we're looking at and trying to figure out how to incorporate that into our business," Hall said.
With spring orders just beginning, it's too early to tell if the company is looking at improved sales for the season. Hall said people are more willing to spend money, but buyers are looking to get their assortments as late as possible.
"It feels like it's an exciting time for Eden," De La Pena said. "We feel like we're really well-positioned right now and doing the right things."

Reclaiming email as an asset to your business
Published by Sierra Monica B. on December 21, 2012 under Office
An ever-increasing number of organisations are tackling email archiving challenges by moving to cloud-based solutions – which serve to cut costs, conform with regulations and ultimately reclaim email as an asset to the business.
Needs of the business
Email is clearly today's dominant business communication tool, and the escalating need to safely handle and store the vast amounts of messages exchanged daily is becoming a greater drain on IT resources.
Organisations require an effective archiving solution that provides secure, long-term storage of email and related information, whilst enabling the end user to access and navigate the archive easily. In turn, such a solution should greatly improve staff efficiency and productivity. Read more

Ebooks Taking Over the Books Market
Published by Sierra Monica B. on December 20, 2012 under Mobile
Technology was always going to have an effect on the world of books, even before the development of Ebooks and Ebook readers consumers were reading less thanks to the variety of media immediately available.
But now with the popularity of the Amazon Kindle, Ereaders and Ereader apps the book is very much up to date and oh so easy to consume. Increasing numbers are now purchasing in the digital format rather than print, so much so that digital copy sales are now overtaking print.
Growth in Ebook sales
Of course the introduction of Ebooks to the market has meant a major growth in digital book sales. It could even be said that the growth in Ebook sales has meant an increase in sales overall. Young people are more likely to spend disposable income on a version of a book that's portable rather than a print copy. Read more

Canstar Community News - ONLINE EDITION
Snowmobiling on sea ice is an adventure
I've spent about half a year living in Iqaluit, Nunavut ,working for CBC News but I am still experiencing new things.
I went snowmobiling for the first time. Not just the first time in Nunavut, the first time ever. Hard to imagine for a girl who comes from the land of ice and snow better known as Winnipeg.
The trip was about four hours. My homemade parka kept me warm. Iqaluit is right on Frobisher Bay. I went across the bay on the sea ice which was incredibly bumpy and terrifying but I got used to the rough ride after a couple of kilometres. It's about 26 kilometres across the bayl so Itravelled more than 50 kilometers there and back. My body ached for a few days afterwards from the bumpy ride.
The area where the water meets the land across the bay is extremely jagged. The tides of the Arctic Ocean create hills as the water meets the land so it's quite the trick to get over them on a snowmobile. I saw some ice formations about 20 feet high.
After making it through the ice field, I followed a trail that goes all the way to Kimmirut, one of the 25 communities in Nunavut. The trail is in Katannilik Territorial Park, one of 13 territorial parks here.
I also tried seal meat the other day. If you've read my previous columns you know that I've enjoyed trying country or traditional food here.
I got to try an array of foods at the International Women's Day celebration at Inuksuk High School. There was a spread of Indian, Italian, Jamaican, Asian, traditional food, and more. The event emulated the wide range of cultures and strong sense of community in Iqaluit.

Fernando Flores Declares: I'm Doing What's Right!by Hilton Hater at . Comments
Britney Spears says he's just after money and fame, while public opinion doesn't appear to be on his side.
But Fernando Flores doesn't care.
The former bodyguard who has sued the pop star for harassment and abuse is standing by his story. In a video posted on TMZ, Flores he is "standing up for what I believe is right."
Standing outside his attorney's office in Orange County, Flores shrugged off Britney's response to his claims and said to her camp: "If that's what they think, then that's what they think."
He also said he's praying for the singer. Watch the video now at TMZ.
Pathetic. He should pray for himself. You can't make cash off of the back of the humiliation of a mentally unwell person and not have it bite your ass.
It's sooooo sad when people are like him..
He only wants fame, and anyone who can not see that, need glasses!
i don't he just want money and her down again
I actually believe this guy and here is why: 1) With the exception of Justin Timberfake, Britney has only dated men that were employed by her.
2) Spears has a history of doing some pretty insane things and I wouldn't put it past her to dance around her house in front of everybody butt naked.
3) Britney has gotten anything that she has wanted for her entire professional life (which is most of her life) and Fernando was probably the only guy to ever say no to her advancements (Personally, I wouldn't but that's just me). Spears has a lot of fans and they are obviously going to be delusional to the truth and support her no matter what happens (just like Wacko Jacko's weirdo fans). So i think that this will come down to some sort of a payout in the end but I wouldn't be surprised to see other men come out of the woodwork.
Fernado, get a grip on life ...........your parents must me so disapointed in you, Yeah ??? Are you seriously trying to sue Britney for what I'm to embarased to to even type. So let me get this right...You are scared over the two weeks you worked for her.....how do you ever wipe your arse and not call your lawyer to try and claim........... U R A JOKE MATE, you've had your 15 minutes of fame so well done, so now go back under that stone xx Ferndo, just before you get settled under that stone, now the whole world knows, your a pathetic chancer and at such a young age with his whole world in front of him.......Your parents must be devistated that they created such a waste of skin as you..... Sorry that must seem harsh but you really are a twat...good luck though in court, you have a rock solid case that judge Judy would struggle with So Proud Fernando ? Guess not..........

My spank bank needs a bailout.
When we telephoned Brimley to get a quote for the piece, he offered up, "Don't call this number again, dammit."
It turns out that the studios didn't want to offend China, lest they decide to boycott bootlegging the film.
It's a good thing they're around to point out what's wrong with everything.
We would like to remind you that production was stopped on 'The Lone Ranger'. Well, ignore that. It's back on with a bare-bones $215 million budget.
Fact: Women covered in zombie blood are 48% hotter.
The producers figured audiences might enjoy a film about Brad Pitt more than they would a film about statistical analysis.
In which a group of obnoxious people travel to an obnoxious place.
I had the mayor and the commissioner all over my ass to create this list.
Here's what we know about 'Community' season three. We know seven things, no more, no less.
It's not just you. The world is getting dumber.
There are so many jobs more fulfilling than "B-list movie star." Just ask my mechanic, Michael Dudikoff.
All these guys are beginning to resemble a dorky, but powerful gang.
Jesse James and Sandra Bullock were deemed ineligible for consideration this year.
A patient nation still holds out for 'Top Scallop'.
He's a very short man. Sometimes, it just doesn't add up.
"So, what's the latest report on the 'AD' movie, guys?"
Oh, they'll go to live with a family on a farm, all right…*takes off sunglasses*…a death farm.
Crazy mofos John Singleton and Ice Cube are spearheading the effort to get it made.
She's in heaven with the "Meester, Meester" lady who was crushed by the air-conditioning unit.
Always bet on the cheaters. It's the smart move.
It would show ALL the episodes. Like "Lisa the Vegetarian" and…ALL of them.
Spoiler alert: She does it just like everyone else does.
The good news is that this 'Baywatch' adaptation has almost nothing to do with 'Baywatch'.
He may have walked away due to his commitment to a History Channel mini-series. Someone slap his agent.
In which the best-laid plans fall to a "touch of consumption."
I'm so hoping this show is called 'Hey There, Lil' Man: What's Crackin'?'
They don't have to be taken anywhere that bad. Central Oklahoma will do just fine.
We don't acknowledge the existence of mini-series in our Emmys.
Glenn, Rob, and Charlie will be producing, but not lending their voices.

The world's biggest brands should all pull out of their relationships with FIFA at the same time, complete with the knowledge that every single football fan - and pretty much every other consumer too - will hail them as heroes. Let their competitors take their place, let them spend billions propping up one of the world's most loathed institutions and face the opprobrium of customers whose sense of right and wrong will have been heightened by a mass walk-out.
As the capital prepares to welcome the Dallas Cowboys and Jacksonville Jaguars on 9 November, for the final game of the NFL International Series this year, our work has shown that the NFL in London has already delivered significant economic benefit to the capital and has the potential to deliver more in the future.
It can be challenging as an adult Association Football fan to adjust to watching Gridiron Football at first... It's a beautiful sport, just witnessing that many different varieties of athlete on one field. You ever seen a 6'7" 26 stone bloke playing midfield on Match of the Day highlights next to a 5'5" 10 stone lad? Whilst both wear leggings?
4,500 former NFL players, many of whom had suffered with mental health or cognitive problems, sued the league over head injuries sustained whilst playing... Yet at the World Cup, this evidence was flagrantly ignored... any medic will tell you that Christoph Kramer should have been taken off immediately.
When I'm speaking to my friends who are also women in the sport industry, we often find ourselves reflecting that we work in a sector that's predominantly male. It's not a new realisation. And it's not surprising. Sometimes it's a rant, sometimes it's a complaint, and other times it's just an observation of a meeting we had where we were the only woman in the room, or at an event where very few women were present.

|1937 Dynamic X76
1936 Panhard Dynamic X76 news, pictures, specifications, and information
Designer: Bionnier
Frenchman Rene Panhard and Emile Levassor obtained an 1888 Daimler patent for a V-twin motor to use it in a small car. Two prototypes were built, equipped with a front-mounted engine and a gearbox. Levassor and his team built increasingly powerful engines and tested them in races. In 1896, a four-cylinder engine of eight horsepower was tested on the Paris-Marseilles-Paris race, and while three Panhard-Levassor cars finished, Levassor was fatally injured in a crash.
At the beginning of the 20th century, the reputation of Panhard-Levassor was at its zenith and the adoption of the Knight sleeve-valve engine, first offered in 1910, further consolidated the fame of the marque.
In 1936, Panhard launched a very original model, moving away from the chassis of hte 'Panoraminques' of 1934-1935. It was the Dynamic, designed by Bionnier. The Art Deco body caused a sensation, and the level of road performance was high.
The French have long been known for iconoclastic automobile design, and one of the more stunning examples is the Panhard X76 Dynamic. Combing a complex sleeve-valve engine, cutting-edge aerodynamic styling, and a central driving position, it certainly marked a departure from the conservative cars of the time.

I have a TableLayoutPanel currently with multiple rows + columns. It's populated by a for loop that will be different every time it's run dependant on the output of an SQL Query.
void tblTableLayoutPanel_CellPaint(object sender, TableLayoutCellPaintEventArgs e)
if (e.Row == 2 || e.Row == 4)
Graphics g = e.Graphics;
Rectangle r = e.CellBounds;
g.FillRectangle(Brushes.Red, r);
This is the code I've got currently to colour individual rows, but I'd like to be able to colour individual cells depending on 2 variables (J, and K).
TableLayoutPanel.Controls.Add(label, J, K);
Similarly here is a sample of how I've added a label to a cell in the TableLayoutPanel using J and K. Is it possible to overload the CellPaint method to allow J and K to be used in it? or if so how could I go about re-colouring cells during runtime?

Recent Hocking Hills reviews
"Upon arrival to this property my family and friends were in total awe at the beauty and location of this lodge. The serene location and extremely close proximity to Ash Cave is unreal. When we walked into the lodge it was seriously breathtaking. It was decorated nicely for the fall season and also smelled like fall. The small details put into the floors and wall decor is unbelievable. It was extremely clean and well kept and the pictures on-line do not do its justice! There is so much to do in Hocking Hills sight seeing and exploring wise. However, I did not have to leave this lodge to have a relaxing vacation. There is so much to do from a large hot tub, 2 fireplaces, game room (so much fun spent there), a fire pit and a gazebo. I stayed in the Master Bedroom where there was a private bathroom. The bathroom had a Jacuzzi tub that I relaxed in at night, while reading one of the many books available on the property. I LOVED that this property has a reverse osmosis system so we did not have to deal with well water while showering, etc. Our family and friends enjoyed a fun filled relaxing weekend in a secluded location where we watched the fall foliage on the deck, around the fire pit, in the hot tub and from outside the windows. We cooked out one night and the two grills were very convenient. We all sat around the large dining room table that had a beautiful fall tablecloth, while looking at the fall decorations and plants around the common areas. We also watched the OSU game in the downstairs entertainment area while we played pool. We only left the lodge once to go canoeing and even then it was very hard to leave and we could not wait to get back. The morning came to check out and none of us wanted to leave. We made so many unforgettable memories at the lodge that I will never forget. I have stayed in Hocking Hills several times but this location and property takes the cake! I have been spoiled forever and will always return to this property in the future. I would recommend this property to EVERYONE! The owner was a pleasure to speak with and I have no complaints at all and either did anyone in our group. I LOVE the fact this lodge is ADA accessible! I work with individuals with disabilities and this is a perfect lodge for vacation for individuals living with disabilities! It even has an elevator to get to the bottom fun area!! SO AWESOME! This by far was the most relaxing vacation I've experienced thus far!"Guest: Caleb, Alison and Alpha Date of Stay: September 2014 Review Submitted: September 10, 2014View listing
"The Lodge on the Lake was everything that it was advertised to be. Our family had a great time for a week swimming, kayaking, and sitting by the fire. We especially enjoyed the quiet mornings on the gazebo watching the mist rise off the lake and listening to the birds. Throughout the day we floated in the water off of the beach and deck. Our dog loved the area and swam along with us most of the day and was "dog tired" (excuse the pun) by the end of the day. The lodge was clean and ready to go on time for us and was stocked with everything that we needed for a great week! It is located close enough to the Hocking Hills attractions if someone chooses to roam around a day or two but we chose to stay on site and relax. Satellite tv reception was very good as we watched the last episode of "24"."Guest: Tobor Date of Stay: July 2014 Review Submitted: August 10, 2014View listing
"My husband and i stayed five nights and loved the well groomed landscape, extremely clean apartment, the serene surroundings, ponies and goats, and the quiet area. Oh how I wish there were more places like this. And the pricing was oh so sweet! We hope to stay here again."Guest: Julie Date of Stay: August 2014 Review Submitted: August 15, 2014View listing
"My wife and I just fishised a week at this cabinb. It was wonderful. It also has a very nice roofed porches on the front and the back. It was clean and very complete. No wifi or ceel signal...but had dish TV and a great selection of movies. Very secluded...we saw no one from the house in the front, but nice to know if needed we could go there. The cabin is very close to parks...the small gas station nearby had great pizza...not too far to anythng...very quiet and relaxing!"Guest: Jim K.

Hocking Hills Travel Tips
Hocking Hills Vacation Rentals Are Some of Ohio's Most Popular Vacation Spots
Hocking Hills is one of Ohio's most popular vacation destinations. Its central location provides excellent transportation routes with Interstate Highways 70, 71 and 77 all leading towards the region. The region surrounding Hocking Hills lodging is intersected by both US State Highways and good state routes. To fly to the area, visitors will find Port Columbus International Airport is very conveniently located. The area benefits from long, warm summers and cold winters.
The area of Hocking Hills is one of rugged and raw natural beauty, and steeped in thousands of years of history. In fact, visitors to Hocking Hills vacation rentals will find evidence of the first inhabitants, the Paleo Indians, dating back thousands of years.
Hocking Hills Vacation Houses Are in a Region of Caves
Hocking Hills vacation rentals are close to the most popular attraction of Old Man's Cave on State Route 664. The six-mile Grandma Gatewood Trail connects the park's three main areas from Old Man's Cave and Cedar Falls to Ash Cave. Old Man's Cave is the burial site of three early inhabitants of the caves--Richard Rowe, Nathaniel and Pat Rayon--who all lived here in the 1700s. At Cedar Falls, visitors will find a remote, stark and beautiful chasm, with natural grottos and waterfalls. From the car park, visitors will head down Democracy Steps, sympathetically designed by artist and architect Akio Hizume. The steps are designed as a gentle walk and suitable for any visitor. The final and most spectacular of the caves is Ash Cave. Its approach is through a narrow, tree-lined ravine with a wonderful array of wildflowers. The cave gets its name from the piles of ash that were discovered in the cave by early settlers. While the origin of the ash is unknown, it is thought that they were the result of campfires from local Indians over hundreds of years. Early settlers also used the cave as a church, due to its impressive size and acoustics.
Five Stunning State Parks Close to Hocking Hills Vacation Houses
When staying in Hocking Hills vacation houses, visitors will find Rock House a unique and fascinating place to explore. Halfway up a 150-foot high cliff are the corridors of Rock House. In the maze of tunnels, created by natural erosion, visitors will find seven arched "windows" and massive sandstone columns holding up the roof of the cave. The cave was home to Native Americans for centuries who found a convenient fresh water supply from the pools created by the rains. Visitors will find ancient cave drawings dating from this period. Legend has it that the cave was also a hideout for local thieves. Another natural wonder here is Rock Bridge, a spectacular natural 100-foot long, 20-foot wide bridge across the ravine below. It is certainly one of the most impressive sites in the region.
Here, there are also five stunning state parks to enjoy. At Lake Logan State Park, anglers can fish for species such as bass, bluegill, catfish and saugeye. The park is also scattered with walking paths through to woods where one can look for local wildlife such as white tailed deer, wild turkey, box turtles, raccoon and red-backed salamander. Tar Hollow is Ohio's third largest state forest and a spectacular area for enjoying the wilderness. Other parks in the region are Lake Hope, Clear Creek and Wayne National Forest.
Hocking Hills Lodging Contains Cozy Hideaways and Spacious Family Homes
Whether visitors to Hocking Hills lodging are seeking a cozy hideaway for two or a spacious home for a large family or group, there is an ideal property here. Each property provides everything required for a comfortable vacation, such as fully equipped kitchens and laundry facilities. Each adds their own unique extras to make individual homes even more special. Extras such as hot tubs, outdoor space with BBQs, high quality furniture and fire pits for cookouts are in many homes. Many homes welcome pets.

American Idol feeder contest winner mesmerizes teens at City Market
Rockford's new City Market was filled with the screams of teen-aged girls Friday night, July 16—not because they were terrorized, rather they were mesmerized by the winner of the Rockford Star feeder contest for the American Idol television show—23-year-old Clayton Heinrich (pictured) of Naperville. His voice and guitar play barely beat out the other great applause-getter, Stephanie Zibell, 27. The other Rockford finalists were Brandi Bonner, 19, Hannah Poorman, 15, and Jataun Tobias, 26. WQRF-Channel 39 hosted the contest, with Kimberly Nelson, FOX 39 news anchor, emceeing a live broadcast during the evening news hour. Heinrich goes on to an audition in Milwaukee that may place him in the running for an appearance on national TV.
