Aussie woman swallowed by sinkhole as she hangs out washing

23rd Dec 2012 11:23am | By Jade Bremner
Looking to surround yourself with bo-ho types wearing dickie bows or ball gowns with trainers? Well, you're in luck.
London is full of neighbourhoods in which the streets overspill with eccentric types riding around on vintage bicycles, en route to buy some lense-free spectacles.
Meanwhile, other areas of the city offer a more old-fashioned sense of style, where the privileged roll out of bed in Prada negligees, then proceed to promenade the latest haute couture on the streets. So if you're an aspiring fashionista, here's where you'll fit in...
South Kensington, SW7
STYLE: This is the place the stylish packing wads of cash in velvet overcoats hang out. You won't find many high street catwalkfakes here. "The area has a period charm and a certain je ne sais quoi," explains Ed Mead, director of Douglas and Gordon real estate agents. "An international glitterati following has raised the profile of the area." You'll need a few bucks to get the look; high fashion stores such as Chanel (chanel.com) are par for the course, and residents will promenade their new threads at the likes of young royals' fave club Boujis (boujis.com).
AREA: Credit where it's due, South Ken is not just full of beautifully vacuous fashionistas swanning about the place. The property is as equally stunning. "One of the reasons it feels more stylish is down to the quintessentially British white stucco houses found in the area," reckons Mead.
TUBE: South Kensington.
Angel, EC1
STYLE: This place is buzzing with Hugh Grant lookalikes and affluent gents. But they don't flaunt it like those in South Ken. They go for the understated-class look, and they'll still mingle with the likes of you roughians in the local boozer. Meanwhile, there's a small community of modern hippies here, too. They live on the nearby canals and sport the "I bought my stripy trousers in Thailand, my oversized cotton shirt in India and my necklace in Nepal" style. Pop into the local Oxfam (oxfam.org.uk) and get the look.
AREA: This happening area is jam-packed with bars, coffee shops and restaurants. Find a caravan and cocktails in Barrio North, an especially trendy bar to hang out in which oozes Latin vibes (barrionorth.com). Angel's property is as varied as its style. Choose between barges, flat-fronted terraced townhouses and the odd council estate.
TUBE: Angel.
Shoreditch, E1
STYLE: The look here has become world famous, partly because it's unashamedly ridiculous – locals wouldn't bat an eyelid if you were a bloke wearing a tutu, with a parrot on your shoulder and sporting smeared cherry red lipstick. However, that's Shoreditch's appeal. Here the arty locals pride themselves on their kooky fashion sense, and their "I only shop in vintage shops and eat falafel" approach to life. To get the look make a beeline for Spitalfields market (spitalfields.co.uk), where you'll find dozens of peculiar and inventive ensembles from indie designers.
AREA: Here there are plenty of tiny grubby flats filled with aspiring art and fashion students, though the occasional converted warehouse can be found. Of an evening, spot blunt-banged hipsters galore at Dragon bar (138-139 Shoreditch High Street).
TUBE: Shoreditch High Street.
Spitalfields Market
Parsons Green, SW6
STYLE: This area shot up in style points when nearby Chelsea ran out of room in which to fit southwest London's fashionable folks. "It has benefited from four to five years of Chelsea displacement, with well-heeled Brits priced out of Chelsea moving to the borough," explains Mead.
The well-off locals brought their "refined taste" in clothes and food and it changed the landscape. "The shops, bars and restaurants are now catering to a new audience. You'll now find champagne bars, boutiques and gastro pubs in the area," he adds. You'll spot plenty of young monied offspring in riding boots, who have just moved out of home, but still want to be close to Mumsie down the road in Chelsea.
Two of the area's young followers of fashion include Katie Diment and Jo Thyne. Their boutique Katie&Jo (katieandjo.com) sells that blazer/ cashmere/ comfy-yet-elegant look familiar to the area. For a night out, quaff bubbly in Amuse Bouche (amusebouchelondon.com), then head to the faux-poncey chain bistro Côte (cote-restaurants.co.uk), which serves fashionably microscopic portions.
AREA: Many of the quiet residental roads off the high street consist of tasteful historic townhouses with beautifully intricate detailing and double bay windows.
TUBE: Parsons Green.
Sarah Green, teacher, 23
"Camden is one of the more stylish neighbourhoods that you hear about a lot. It's notorious for its famous market. It's a very artsy place, with lots of different looks."
Mark McDonald, student, 22
"Spitalfields in east London is full of great style. Every time I'm there I see so many looks I want to replicate. I don't get the same feeling when I'm in west London."
Allison Childs, recruitment director, 36
"The Portobello area, near Notting Hill, has a lot of style. It's also got tons of colourful buildings, making it a really cheerful and lively place to wander around of a weekend. "
Lucy Auzie, student, 36
"Shoreditch has tons of style. Everywhere you look there are vintage shops and boutiques. You don't find that kind of stuff everywhere in London."
Kate Gudgeon, digital manager, 28
"Shoreditch is becoming more and more stylish. It's a very young neighbourhood so people aren't afraid to experiment and there's always something going on.

Game 1: Eastern Illinois at Minnesota
* All fans in attendance at Thursday's game are encouraged to wear GOLD as part of Throwback Thursday: Light 'Em Up Gold night at TCF Bank Stadium and can win great prizes. Click here for more details.
1. Minnesota begins its 2014 season against Eastern Illinois on Aug. 28. The game will be the earliest that the Gophers have ever started a college football season. The contest will be Minnesota's ninth (third in three years) August game ever. The previous eight games were played on either Aug. 29 (1-0 record including last year's 51-23 home win against UNLV), Aug. 30 (3-2 record) or Aug. 31 (2-0 record). The Gophers enter the 2014 season after winning eight games and going to a bowl game in 2013. It was only the sixth time in program history that the Gophers won eight games and went to a bowl game (1960, 1961, 1999, 2002 and 2003). Minnesota is 3-1-1 in season-opening games after that occurance (won in 2000, 2003 and 2004; lost in 1961 and tied in 1962). Minnesota is also 11-3-1 in season-opening games when it played in a bowl game the previous year.

Flirting - What is acceptable?
Find a Conversation
|Wed, 03-14-2012 - 12:07pm
My boyfriend and I have been together for 3 years.
He has many friends that are girls. This is what most of our previous problems have been around. Mainly that I don't know any of these girl friends and that he's quite flirty. I don't have a problem with flirting. I think it's healthy and normal and keeps you sane, I just don't like when it crosses certain boundaries. And I also don't like that I don't know any of his friends that are girls that he is flirty with.
A few months back, one of my bf's girl friends made a comment on his facebook which lead to just a silly funny discussion of them just kidding around, one of his guy friends made a comment "I sense a lot of sexual tension here" on their discussion. I thought this was a little inappropriate but I just let it be.
A few days ago, the exact situation happened, a silly joking around discussion on facebook between the two and the same guy friend says "get a room".
A little history:
- I once found pics of when he was gone out of town for a vacation with his friends, he was with this same girl in the pool hanging off of her drunk. I was a little upset because to me it seemed like he didn't want me to see these pics but I just let it be. He assured me that she was just a friend with him and all of his other friends!
- I them saw that he had sent her a heart in the middle of the night while he was out partying with his friends. Again, he was like shes just a friend. When I send you a heart it means something completely different than when I send it to my other girl friends.
This is not exclusive to just one girl. Things like this have happened many time with other girls.
I know they're just friends. I KNOW that he would never do anything and that it would not go beyond flirting and friendship. I know that. But some of the actions still bug me. I'm not sure why. I guess in my point of view, some of the flirting is beyond what is acceptable when your in a relationship.
My questions:
|Wed, 03-14-2012 - 6:23pm
|Wed, 03-14-2012 - 9:02pm
I just think it's very odd that after being w/ him for 3 yrs, he has any friends you don't know personally.
|Thu, 03-29-2012 - 9:41am
|Mon, 04-02-2012 - 9:15am
"I know they're just friends. I KNOW that he would never do anything and that it would not go beyond flirting and friendship. I know that"
I'm sorry but you have to understand how many women say this when they are being duped. You don't KNOW it... you FEEL it. There's a big difference.
I think you are in denial if you really think your boyfriend is incapable of crossing a line. You are certainly in denial if you accept that this girl is just a friend. She's not.

Seth Wenig, AP
Delta Air Lines said it will buy almost half of Virgin Atlantic for $360 million as it tries to catch up to rivals in the lucrative New York-to-London travel market.
Delta plans to form a joint venture with Virgin Atlantic so they can sell seats on each other's flights, share the costs and profits, and set the flight schedules in ways that help both airlines. American Airlines has a similar deal with British Airways.
Because Delta would be setting fares and schedules in coordination with an airline it used to compete with, it said it will need antitrust approval from U.S. and European regulators in order to form a joint venture. Delta said the share purchase will happen with or without antitrust approval.
Delta is aiming to have the joint operation running by the end of 2013.
The deal won't add flights between the U.S. and Britain. But travel will be more seamless. Travelers would be able to buy one plane ticket from, say, Lansing, Mich. on Delta and connect in New York to a Virgin Atlantic flight to London. Travelers from Europe will also have a smoother transition onto Delta flights to locations inside the U.S. Delta said their frequent flier programs would be linked, too.
Combined, Delta and Virgin Atlantic have 31 flights a day in each direction between North America and the U.K., including nine each way between Heathrow and John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York and Newark Liberty International Airport in New Jersey.
By itself, Delta has only three flights a day straight from New York to Heathrow. American and British Airways have 14 between them. And that's the problem. New York-to-London and back is one of the world's prime business travel routes. Delta has loads of travelers coming into its New York hubs at JFK and LaGuardia. But without more flights to bring those travelers on to London, Delta is at a serious disadvantage.
Landing rights at London's Heathrow Airport are limited, so Delta can't just add more flights there.
Buckingham Research analyst Daniel McKenzie wrote that Delta needed to fix its shortfall of London flights in order to win more business travelers. He estimated that the deal would bring Delta hundreds of millions of dollars in added revenue starting in 2014. Some of that business will probably come at American's expense, since it also has a hub at JFK, McKenzie wrote.
Sir Richard Branson will still own more than half of Virgin Atlantic, which will continue to fly as a separate airline under its own name. In 2000, Branson sold a stake to Singapore Airlines for 600.3 million pounds, or about $960 million at the time. That's the share that Delta is buying.
Virgin Atlantic has been struggling. It reported a pretax operating loss of 80.2 million British pounds in its most recent fiscal year, even as the number of passengers it carried rose 2 percent. It indicated in 2010 that it might be interested in some kind of tie-up with another airline. British media reports at that time said that Delta was interested.
Branson's involvement gives Virgin Atlantic strong name recognition, but it is much smaller than Delta. Virgin Atlantic has 38 planes, compared to 725 for Delta. Delta carries some 160 million passengers per year, almost 30 times more than Virgin Atlantic.
Shares of Atlanta-based Delta Air Lines Inc. rose 73 cents, or 7.1 percent, to $10.87 in morning trading.

I would say that it is perfectly possible to design machines to automate the traditional cheese making methods, or pasturise cream, without producing cheese triangles from dairy waste.
The production of flour has been mechanised for millenia, it doesn't have to be assosciated with pop tarts.
Re: Actually
Not always fortunate - there were dead periods where I was reduced to doing red&blue tape PCB artworks on the kitchen table. Or plugging new cash register printers in at Tesco after midnight.
I'm just saying that people should make their own choices. Maybe if I had been different I'd still be in charge of an R&D department instead of using a screwdriver and a torque wrench on a daily basis. Maybe I'd have earned more. But I earned enough, and can live with having designed control systems in the food and printing industry.
I'm not sure that people do work on weapons systems without a certain amount of introspection: I know a few who did exactly that. I rather think this chap's advice is null. I think that most designers and developers know very well what they are doing. it would all get smelly very quickly if they didn't.
I've walked out of 3 jobs because I didn't want to work on military hardware, and skipped a thousand or so job adverts.

Re: Not another one!
Even before the EMV connector was widely used on cards (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EMV) the banks issued and maintained a PIN system used all over at least europe and south america. Terminals had to be complient and approved, and were often issued by the banks: but there was a standard that they all more or less agreed to.
I have been using swipe-and-pin terminals since the late 1980s, and chip-and-pin since the early years of this century. I don';t think I have had a card mag-swiped outside the USA since around 2003. Even in Malawi, China, and The Andaman islands shops, cash machines, and banks all work with the chip-and-pin method. Damnm, I designed a swipe-and-pin terminal back in 1976, when the banks wanted to maintain separate PIN algorithms.
The world has had a generic PIN system since some time in the 1980s.
Not another one!
Sick and tired of US retailers home-made alternatives to a proper system. Like the petrol pumps that demand the billing zip code for credit cards instead of a pin code, and the sudden appearance of mag swipe on iphones, years after the civilised world has chip-and-pin. Starbucks qr-code-on-yer-phone-scanned-by-the-till instead of a proper system. On and on and on, contrapting ramshackle systems instead of co-operating on standards

Rumours are true
"The Australian BMX cyclist Caroline Buchanan tweeted a photograph of the bucket, which featured a sign reading "Kangaroos condoms, for the gland downunder", and a picture of a boxing kangaroo.
She joked that bucket seemed to back up rumours that the village becomes a hot bed of activity as thousands of competitors complete their events and celebrate after years of working to get to the Olympics – tweeting: "Haha, the rumours are true. Olympic village."
Barcelona started the trend of supplying free condoms to athletes when the Spanish city held the Olympics in 1992, with the International Olympic Committee endorsing the move.
The London Olympic organisers provided 150,000 free condoms in dispensers for the 10,800 athletes at the Games, supplied by Durex which paid for the supply rights.
A Locog spokeswoman said they were trying to find out who distributed the Kangaroo condoms, with the container shown to hold condoms from Durex's rivals Ansell Ltd, an Australian company, and Pasante, a private British firm.
She said athletes and officials were allowed to bring products into the village for their personal use.
"We will look into this and ask that they are not handed out to other athletes because Durex are our supplier," said the spokeswoman."
My personal view? Young, fit, active people with something to celebrate? Why not?

I have read quite a few articles on why people have stopped singing in church lately.
Recently we experienced a transition. Well, really, it seems our church has been in a 5 year transition. In 2009 the church survived a split. A driving factor in the divide was worship. It came down to worship and power. These are usually two terrible problems when they come to the boiling point of exacerbation leading to hurt. When I came to the church, FBC had gone from two services to one. Most in the contemporary service left with the previous pastor. What was left in the contemporary service combined with the traditional service. A precious sweet lady at the church was leading it all. She did a great job. The church went to two services again, but we did not have a strictly contemporary or traditional style. We blended with a lean. I knew the Lord had prompted me to design worship with a "blend of music." Some church growth experts would say "don't do that but target who you want to reach." That sounds good, but it no always the answer. Yet the blend did not work as we wanted. How did we know it was not working?
Our people were not singing. They were not clearly meeting God in our worship services. One way of saying it is "we knew something was missing."
How did we fix it? In the past 4 Sundays our services have had the clear presence of God. People are singing. On June 22, I had the best worship experience I have had at FBC.
What changed? How did we get our church singing again?
1. Prayer. Over a year ago we began focusing on praying. A sense of the Spirit was not overwhelming in our services. I knew it. I read of Spurgeon's boiler room. Then I started a boiler room. And our people began praying. We are experiencing the answered prayers of over a year ago.
2. Planning. We have rearranged our approach to planning.
- We admitted something was wrong.
- We had too many people on the stage at one time. This made the sound hard to manage.
- Harmony in vocals was almost useless. Our instruments were to many and too loud.
- We moved from an opening prayer in rehearsal to a season of praying prefaced with scripture.
- A new leader stepped up and prayerfully selected songs that we knew people would sing. We pick what the Spirit prompts. If a song does not work, then we scrap it and seek God's direction.
- Prayer permeates the rehearsal. We have stopped coming in with a plan, running through songs, then going home. Our team now will stop and pray in the song or the leader will pray through the song or during the song. It's great.
- Our team plans together. We are not two or three separate teams. Our vocalists, our media team, and our band are all one team. We ensure each part complements the other. No one is left hanging. We walk through it all.
3. Purpose. We have embraced a principle – "excellence honors God and inspires people." Any pastor will tell you managing worship can be a headache. Pleasing people is tough. It can't be exactly done. Yet at FBC I have come to the place where my burden is this: God's people must meet Him in worship at FBC. I'm committed to that. And in doing that here is how we design worship.
- Start with hymns done so that people tap a toe, clap a hand, sing out because they know the song, and are motivated with a "softball song" at the beginning. I'm in a resort area. So we have many older people. The way to get them to embrace new music is the do the hymn music first. Do it with vibrancy. When that happens, they will be more receptive to the new. We are seeing it work.
- Get a song list of 20-25 songs they know and use those for awhile.
- Turn the volume down so the people can hear themselves sing.
- Use a rotating team and tell people you are doing that.
- Use new songs, but use them with excellence and wisdom.
- Be Spirit led. Pray in the service with a sense of "we are approaching the throne" and "we are seeking God's face." When people know the Pastor and the team have been with God, they respond.
A large church does not have the same challenge of a small or medium size church. If you are struggling in worship, THE PASTOR MUST LEAD.
Do you agree with what we have done? Can a blended worship work? Or not?

Suite Dreams at the Hotel d'Angleterre, Geneva, Switzerland
Andrew Harper drooled over the fashionable Leopard Lounge, naming it the Hotel Bar of the Year. Leading Small Hotels of the World decided this pad is the Best Hotel in Europe (2005). Not too shabby for a lakeside pied a terre that dates from 1872. In fact, most of the world's remaining royalty (and folks that just feel like kings and queens) concur that the hotel's 39 rooms and suites provide the best accommodations in Switzerland's largest city, and perhaps the world over. Balconies provide heart-stopping views over Lake Geneva, the Jet d'Eau and the towering peaks of Mont Blanc. (And the Presidential Suite, rest assured, has bullet proof windows, among other amenities.) From May 10 through the end of the year, the Hotel d'Angleterre is offering a Suite Dreams package, for a luxurious weekend of indulgence. The package includes Junior suite lake view accommodations, buffet breakfast daily, afternoon tea, Aroma therapy set, and in room champagne upon arrival. Starting at CHF 1,590 for two people.

The Changing Face of Shanghai
The NYT reports on the phenomenal building boom that is transforming Shanghai at a feverish pace. My recent memory of Shanghai (2004)-- a landscape ravaged by industry, blanketed by pollution, and marked by strangely toxic sunsets over the Bund but also steeped in fascinating history and culture-- is barreling towards an unrecognizable future. The biggest city on Earth is about to get a whole lot bigger: host to the biggest ports, one of the biggest automobile factories, the biggest shipyard, Asia's largest shopping mall, and mammoth, futuristic skyscrapers dominating the Pudong riverfront. Shanghai's got its eye on surpassing New York in magnitude, size, and industrial infrastructure. And the trends I noticed a few years ago-- skyscrapers shooting up as quickly as bamboo stalks, the neon hovering and enormous in the smog, the transformation of the cosmopolitan face of modern China-- will continue at breakneck speed. As reported by the NYT, conservationists and critics bemoan the city's cultural losses: the architecture and personality of a city that has such a storied history, including its 19th century imperial division into autonomous colonial possessions, each ruled by the Brits, French and Americans. Historical neighborhoods of winding alleyways, open air markets and rich, authentic street life are set to be demolished.
Like China's capital, which is undergoing a crash rebuilding program in time for the 2008 Summer Olympics, Shanghai is using its role as host of the World Expo to shift what had already been a hugely ambitious remake into high gear. By the standards of recent urban development projects in the West — the so-called Big Dig in Boston, say — the scale of what the city is undertaking is astounding.
Along the western banks of the Huangpu River, site of the historic Bund thoroughfare, a 2,000-plus-yard-long stretch of the waterfront is being razed and redeveloped. The essence of the Bund, a virtual museum of Western architecture, flush with classical, Gothic and Art Deco landmarks, will be preserved, but densely inhabited neighborhoods at its edge are already being demolished.
Talk about ambition. As the city "aims for the top as it ascends the hierarchy of world cities, with one eye on longtime champions like New York, and another on its fraternal rival, Beijing," its rich heritage will perhaps be lost forever. Best to get there fast before a new breed of skyscrapers (already twice as many as New York's) paves China's quintessential urban cityscape.

But what we didn't note is the hotel's Special Introductory Rate, to celebrate Loews return to the nation's capital during the springtime season of perfect temperatures and beautiful cherry blossoms. Check into Washington's traditional establishment (and check out Loews's signature style)-- for as low as $179 a night. Offer is valid for Friday and Saturday evenings through June 24, 2006.
The Rebirth of an Icon: The Comeback of the Cloister at Sea Island, Georgia
After three years of construction and $350 million spent on resort redevelopment, Georgia's exclusive Sea Island hot spot is ready to dazzle. The elegant 1928 hotel-- regularly hosting royalty and international dignitaries through the 20th century-- was ready for some work, and the new Mediterranean style main building (with the meticulous restoration of the legendary Spanish Lounge) is absolutely stunning. Guests are already shelling out the dough for coveted guest rooms, the summer season promising to be booked solid. And who can blame them? The epitome of Old World elegance, these rooms feature wood beamed ceilings, 500-thread count Italian sheets, Turkish stone baths, Bulgari White Tea toiletries, antiques and original art, and are draped in custom-designed hand-loomed Turkish rugs. Of course, there's also the appeal of the attentive private butler service and impeccable Southern hospitality. Additional developments are in store for this award-winning resort: the construction of a new Spa at Sea Island is slated to open in October, and the Beach Club is expected in Summer 2007.

Announcing the New Westin Denarau Island Resort and Spa, Fiji
In a week, Westin is opening the doors to luxury in its first property in the South Pacific. Say hello to the new Westin Denarau Island Resort and Spa, Fiji. A five-star oasis surrounded by tropical gardens and long, palm-graced sandy beaches. The old Sheraton got a $15 million makeover and morphed into a brand-spanking-new Westin, its style and architecture designed to reflect Fiji's cultural heritage. The resort's new Heavenly Spa is the largest in Fiji. Set within a 1,350-square meter meditation garden, the Spa features eight Fijian-style treatment bures and two suites, a Vichy shower treatment room, a hydrotherapy room, a wet-edge lap pool, and Jacuzzi. Hit the gym (Westin's WORKOUT Powered by Reebok fitness center is packed with state-of-the-art equipment), soak up the rays by the three-tier swimming pool, enjoy the beach and extensive water sports program, or play some tennis or golf. The introductory rate of $183 a night is almost too good to be true. The special promotional offer includes luxurious accommodations, full breakfast, a spa credit, complimentary dinner for two, and complimentary champagne in room upon arrival. Available through June 30, 2006. But keep in mind that from April 20-October 2006, the resort is still undergoing minor construction, refurbishing the remaining guestrooms.

The separate Chi Spa Village will be fully operational in May, consisting of private villas for rejuvenating treatments, three freshwater swimming pools, 19 (count 'em!) food and beverage outlets, meeting rooms and an open-air amphitheater. Did I mention the Oman Dive Center, Kids Club, Dolphin and Whale-watching trips, and marina? O- Man!

French Harfangs deployed to Mali alongside dozens of other aircraft
Written by defenceWeb, Wednesday, 13 February 2013
Last week the French Ministry of Defence (MoD) said that the Harfangs carried out their first operational missions over Mali on January 18. The aircraft are flown by Squadron 1/33 'Belfort' from neighbouring Niger, with two being based in Niamey. It was under the eye of the Harfang that the cities of Douentza and Gao were taken over from Islamist militants. They were also overhead when French paratroops landed in Timbuktu.
The EADS Harfang (based on the IAI Heron) medium altitude long endurance (MALE) UAV has an endurance of over 20 hours – one flew for 26 hours between January 25 and 26. After Afghanistan and Libya, the Sahel desert is the third theatre to which the unarmed Harfang has been deployed.
The French MoD said the aircraft cooperate with Air Force and Navy aircraft operating over Malian territory. France has a wide variety of air assets operating in support of Operation Serval. From its base in Ndjamena, Chad, it has six Rafale and three Mirage 2000D fighters, five C-135FRs tankers, one A310, one C-130 Hercules, three C-160 Transal and one CN235 transport aircraft.
Based in Mali's capital Bamako are two Mirage F1CR and three Mirage 2000D fighters and eight Gazelle, four Super Puma and three Tiger helicopters. Five French Navy Atlantique II maritime patrol aircraft are based in Dakar, Senegal. France has also charted aircraft, including An-124, An-225 and Il-76 transports.
The French Ministry of Defence on February 4 said that since January 31, French aircraft had flown more than 135 missions over Mali, including 30 reconnaissance flights, and destroyed 25 targets from logistics depots to training centres. Fighter aircraft and attack helicopters were used for these strikes.
Apart from French air assets, a large number of foreign aircraft have been contributed to the intervention force. Nigeria is the only other country to have committed combat aircraft, deploying two Alpha Jets (NAF 455 and NAF 452) to neighbouring Niger on January 18, followed by two Mi-35 attack helicopters. Nigerian Air Force C-130s are being used to airlift equipment and soldiers to Mali as part of the ECOWAS (Economic Community of West African States) contingent (Nigeria has pledged 900 troops out of 3 300 mandated to be sent).
The United States has been supporting French operations with five C-17 Globemaster III strategic transports, three KC-135 tankers and unarmed RQ-1 and RQ-4 unmanned aerial vehicles. The US may also be flying armed MQ-1 Predators over Mali.
The US Air Force (USAF) said that between January 21, when the US airlift effort began, and February 3, its C-17s had flown 30 flights transporting 610 personnel and 1 675 000 lb (760 tons) of equipment and supplies. Since aerial refuelling began on January 27, the USAF flew nine missions and offloaded 360 000 lb (163 000 kg) of fuel to French aircraft.
Canada has contributed a C-17 Globemaster III transport, which arrived in Mali on January 17 carrying French military hardware. In Europe, Belgium has offered two C-130 Hercules and two A109 medevac helicopters as well as 75 soldiers.
The Netherlands pledged to provide transport aircraft and on February 7 dispatched a KDC-10 from Eindhoven air base to pick up supplies in France before delivering them to Ndjamena, which is the French logistics hub for Operation Serval.
Germany has sent two C-160 Transal aircraft to support ECOWAS. On February 8 the Bundeswehr announced that the Luftwaffe had flown 48 C-160D flights that transported 337 personnel and 92 tons of materiel in support of the International Support Mission in Mali (AFISMA).
The Italian Air force is sending two C-130J Super Hercules and a KC-767A tanker, which will refuel French combat aircraft. A Danish C-130J-30 Super Hercules departed for Mali on January 15 while a Spanish C-130 left for Bamako on February 1, transporting men and materiel to Mali.
Elsewhere, Sweden has given France use of its share of the NATO Strategic Airlift Capability, dispatching a C-17 aircraft to France, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has offered two of its C-17s to assist France transporting men and materiel to Mali.
The Royal Air Force has contributed three aircraft, starting with a C-17 that flew into Bamako on January 14, delivering equipment for the French Army. A second RAF C-17 left Paris for Mali on January 15. The two airlifters are providing non-combat logistics support. The UK last month extended its commitment to Mali by committing one of its C-17s to Operational Serval by three months.
On January 25 a Royal Air Force Sentinel surveillance aircraft deployed to Dakar, Senegal, from RAF Waddington. Around 20 British personnel are deployed in Mali's capital Bamako in support of French forces.
France commenced military operations in Mali on January 11, with the goal of removing Islamist militants from the country. According to the French MoD, there are currently 4 000 French soldiers in Mali. Alongside them are nearly 3 800 African soldiers and some 2 000 AFISMA soldiers belonging to Togo (640), Burkina Faso (500), Nigeria (240), Niger (500), Benin (90) and Senegal (50). More troops are expected in the coming weeks.

Paul Giamatti stars as a struggling lawyer and volunteer wrestling coach who takes in his client's troubled grandson

Effects-laden alien invasion schlock horror directed by James Gunn, writer of the Dawn Of The Dead remake
This is a 100 per cent gleeful fan-boy romp through the horror and sci-fi genres, a film that pays lively homage to a slew of earlier classics, notably: The Thing, Invasion Of The Body Snatchers, Society, Shivers and yes, even Romero zombie films (never mind lesser fare like Xtro and the sundry Alien rip-offs). And it does so with plenty of latex special effects.
"Aw, that's gross," says Brenda Gutierrez (James) when she and Grant Grant (Rooker) come across something slimy and, yes, otherworldly in the woods. Before you can say "alien invasion", Grant's been impregnated by a dart thingy and starts to mutate. Initially, his wife, Starla (Banks), is pleased, saying to a colleague, "This morning I sensed a real change in Grant" after their dry marriage (that's why he was in the woods with another woman) is reinvigorated. Then he starts getting weird - putting a padlock on the cellar door, and developing nasty rashes and swellings. "It's just a bee sting," he insists, but it ain't. He's becoming the monstrous alien overlord, and transforming others too. Brenda becomes a giant egg sack basically, and releases a torrent of slithering little red slug beasties. Cue Shivers homage, as one heads for a teenager, Kylie (Saulnier), in her bath.
Suddenly, the small town of Wheelsy is full of zombies and mutants. It's up to Starla; the local police chief who's always held a torch for her, Bill Pardy (Fillon, of 'Firefly' and Serenity fame); obnoxious mayor Jack MacReady (Henry); and plucky young Kylie to try and fight back. But how can you battle a flesh-eating, body-absorbing, hive-mind alien? Suffice to say, the whole endeavour involves even more lashings of silicone and latex.
As well as paying homage to the horror he grew up with - Carpenter, early Cronenberg - Gunn also revisits the special effects techniques that made 1980s horror so distinct. Latex, silicone and physical prosthetics reached their aesthetic prime with such films as The Thing and Brian Yuzna's Society, with its unforgettable body-melding climax.
Techniques and technology have come along since then, and Slither further augments them with CGI, but it's marvellous to see latex body horror making a return here. The effects team supposedly used so much silicone that they depleted the US national supply which should give you some idea of what to expect. Poor Michael Rooker gets the brunt of it, rapidly disappearing under layers of prosthetics as he turns into a red, be-tentacled thing. Yep, that's gross, and Slither's all the more fun for it.
A good cast, a funny script and plenty of wonderful monster action - Gunn's film is masses of nostalgic fun if you grew up with body horror of the 1980s. And just plain gross fun if you didn't.

Could you possibly point me towards a accurate tutorial or likewise so I would know where to start? I've taken off the four screws on back of the monitor
This is obviously a Tempered Glass version, they laminate the glass over the screen and then the bezel goes over the top.

School Notes:
God is the source of all truth and has revealed Himself in His Holy Word. That Word teaches that "The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding."(Proverbs 9:10) (2 Timothy 3:16-17) "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works." and that God's Word tells us all that His Word is a "lamp unto our feet and a light unto our path" (Psalm 119:105). Because of these truths, and as a Christian school committed to the spiritual and intellectual formation of its students, Volusia County Christian Academy asserts that all learning begins with and is held together by what God has revealed in the Bible. VCCA believes that shaping character and developing intellectual coherence in the historic Christian sense necessitates this approach to education. Because God's Word is "quick and powerful" (Hebrews 4:12), and because it says in (Isaiah 55:11) "So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it." VCCA's faculty is encouraged to cultivate a vibrant understanding of the Scriptures by reading through the entire Bible each year. Knowledge of the Scriptures provides a framework for integrating faith and learning in their respective disciplines and across the breadth of the curriculum. It also enhances the faculty's ability to be sensitive to the spiritual needs and curiosities of the students so that they can bring the Scriptures to bear on those issues and questions which confront our students both in and out of the classroom.
