Losing star wideout Welker sends mixed messages
Steelers/NFL Videos
Losing Wes Welker is one thing. But seeing the trusted slot receiver defect for the Broncos, only to improve Peyton Manning's chances of winning another Super Bowl ring, might be enough to make Tom Brady wonder.
Brady restructured his contract recently, allowing the Patriots a few more million in salary cap room. It seemed like a good deal for both sides. The Patriots got cap room, the GQ quarterback netted extra cash and major guarantees.
All that, and Welker winds up with Manning?
Guess Welker, after the last of his six seasons with the Patriots seemed to include the undercurrent of a rift with coach Bill Belichick, really knows how to strike back. The two-year deal that Welker got from the Broncos, worth $12 million, didn't come until talks broke down with the Patriots. New England's offer of $5 million per season was apparently taken as an insult by a player who caught more passes than any player in the NFL (672) during his Patriots tenure. New England's response? Sign a younger Danny Amendola away from the St. Louis Rams, reunite him with offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels on a five-year, $31 million deal that guarantees $10 million, according to figures obtained by USA Today.
Amendola's deal, which came down a couple hours after Welker's deal, averages $6.2 million per year — $200,000 more on average than Welker's contract and in total a whole lot more than New England offered Welker.
The Patriots can send messages of their own, too. In this case, it's "Good riddance, Wes. We'll be fine." History is on their side. Brady has seen a lot of targets come and go. He's won with Welker, and he's won with Troy Brown and David Givens.
And now he still has Rob Gronkowski and Aaron Hernandez.
Welker was the ultimate blitz-beater, typically the security blanket crossing over the middle when things got tight. He usually was money in the bank.
For the here and now, Welker's departure appears to be a much bigger win for the Broncos and their solid, aggressive architect John Elway, than it is a loss for the Patriots. Manning and Brady are the best quarterbacks of their generation, but Brady's got the upper hand with those three championship rings. That's add fuel for Manning, who wants to win bad enough for himself but once again is in the midst of an offseason that began with another playoff defeat.
With Welker's move, the power in the AFC might not have shifted — Denver, which had the AFC's best record last season, already looked to be the team to beat — but rather solidified.
That Denver wanted to secure Welker for just two years says something else. It's a win-now move. No surprise about that mindset. In fact, that's how both Elway and his soon-to-be 37-year-old quarterback described their mission last March when they joined forces. Adding Welker to the mix thickens the plot. Belichick might have suspected, but couldn't know for sure, that the Broncos would snap up Welker in a heartbeat. Regardless, that was a risk he was willing to take. Brady will understand — or just deal with it.

These photos are bound by the copyright and license of their owners, the thumbnail links take to you to the photos (as well as their copyright and license details) within Flickr. Because some other search engines (Google, etc.) index parts of Flickr Hive Mind, you may have been led here from one of them. Welcome to Flickr Hive Mind, almost certainly the best search engine for photography on the web. If you are a Flickr user and use Flickr Stats you may have seen people being led to your photos via Flickr Hive Mind (as a Referrer). Flickr requires that I inform you that Flickr Hive Mind uses the Flickr API, but is neither endorsed nor certified by them. There are literally hundreds of other web tools built around the Flickr API, see Flickr Bits for a bunch of examples.

To also remove yourself from searches for specific user names, you will need to set your Flickr profile to be hidden from searches. Flickr has finally created a single page with all these settings, this is much easier to do now and is the preferred method - it will shut down all API driven sites.

Keith Urban announced as returning 'American Idol' judge
By Reality TV World staff, 08/01/2013
Keith Urban
has had his
American Idol
wish granted.
Fox has announced the country singer, who had previously
expressed his desire to return
for a second season as an
American Idol
judge, will be part of the show's thirteenth-season judging panel when the new season premieres in January.
Fox Entertainment chairman Kevin Reilly announced Urban's return during a Television Critics Association press tour panel in Beverly Hills on Thursday.

"He did a great job on the show, fans loved him and you can see how much he loved the doing show, Reilly told reporters, according to Deadline Hollywood.
Reilly also reportedly confirmed the network has had discussions with former
Jennifer Lopez
, former finalist
Jennifer Hudson
, recording artist will.i.am, and music producer Dr. Luke about joining the thirteenth-season judging panel, but stressed no other deals are in place yet.
"All have been talked about and discussed," he said, adding that the network is seeking judges who are "good at the job" and "people like," but is planning to refocus
American Idol
"on the contestants" rather than its judges.
Urban subsequently confirmed Reilly's announcement on Twitter.
"Thrilled to be back on @AmericanIdol with my pal @RyanSeacrest and dying to know who the other judges will be!!!!" he tweeted.
Urban was the only remaining twelfth-season judge still in the running for
American Idol
thirteenth-season judging panel as
Randy Jackson
Mariah Carey
Nicki Minaj
had all
announced their exits
this past spring.
According to reports published at the time,
American Idol
was reportedly considering a drastic revamp that would include dumping the show's entire twelfth-season judging lineup in favor
an alum-filled panel
which would include former contestants such as Hudson,
Kelly Clarkson
Adam Lambert
, and
Clay Aiken
However new reports that the plan had been
put on hold
emerged several weeks later, and Clarkson's representative
had denied
her participation.

Christchurch earthquake
The central Christchurch red zone is now "the rebuild zone", with new buildings under way and 16,000 jobs created over the past year.
A total of 325 commercial consents and 77 residential consents have been granted by the Christchurch City Council for the area bounded the four avenues since the February 2011 earthquake.
There were still 48 full demolitions and 32 partial demolitions to be carried out in the central business district.
Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Minister Gerry Brownlee announced the figures in an update today on the city's recovery progress.
He also said:
- 47 commercial property owners have agreed to sell to the Crown for key anchor projects set out in the Central Christchurch Development Unit (CCDU) blueprint for the city.
- The Crown is seeking to buy 350 properties in the central city in total, and negotiations are under way on 215 properties.
- Of the 7207 property owners in the residential red zone, over 6500 have signed a sale and purchase agreement with the Crown.
- There has been a 32 per cent increase in the number of employees in the construction sector in Canterbury between February 2010 and February 2012, from 15,520 to 20,420
- The most recent Household Labour Force Survey showed there were 16,000 new jobs in Christchurch over the past year.
Figures released by the Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Authority howed 1668 commercial and residential buildings in the CBD and the suburbs had been approved for partial or complete demolition, and 1419 of those had been completed.
Brownlee said Canterbury children would be able to pitch their plans for a central-city playground in a competition launched today.
The Amazing Place interactive competition challenges children up to year 6 to design a CBD playground, and intermediate and secondary school pupils to design and submit proposals pitching a dream project for the central city.
The project is sponsored by the BNZ.
BNZ retail director Andy Symons said it was fitting that the first major community project linked to the rebuild would be aimed at the city's children.
"Christchurch's children will inherit the new city that is only now beginning to take shape. These children have a vital stake in what this city will look like and how it will work for them and their children,'' he said.
"Challenging Christchurch children to imagine and contribute to the rebuilding of their city, while learning the social and financial implications of their projects, will arm them with important and relevant skills.''
Brownlee said on Wednesday that there were 1098 people working within the city's cordons and he felt it appropriate the area was no longer referred to as the red zone.
He said CBD landowners were ''willing to come to the table and negotiate in good faith'' with the Crown, and agreements had been made on over half the land needed for the convention centre precinct.
He also spoke about technical category 3 land, and people were working hard to ''create viable options and speed up the delivery of solutions''.
''I know there is still much frustration in TC3, but there is also ample evidence that things are moving in a positive direction on a number of fronts.''
He said property values in TC3 ''haven't slumped'' and sales were happening on regularly.
''I know not everyone is out of the woods yet as insurance settlements are clarified and building options are explored, [but] all land zoning was done with long-term interests at heart,'' he said.
''We simply couldn't have property prices slump and major question marks exist over the long-term quality of so much of Christchurch's housing stock.''
He said there had been ''inpatient queries'' about when the CBD would be rebuilt.
''This is understandable. Even working as we are to streamline processes around tendering, design and other elements of getting major building projects off the ground, there are many, many ducks to get in a row.''
However, ''good progress'' was being made on the CCDU blueprint released last July.
Detailed design work had started on the east frame and the Avon River precinct, and the Crown had started buying land for these projects.
''By August this year we should have land acquisition completed on these two projects, and by then early construction, especially of the Avon River precinct, will be well under way.''
He said those who submitted expressions of interest in building in the convention centre precinct would this month be advised of the outcome.
''Whatever the chosen outcome for procuring this huge project, all land will be in Crown ownership within six months of today and site clearance will have commenced,'' he said.
Central-city cordons will be reduced by May, Gerry Brownlee says.
The Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Minister spoke to journalists from around New Zealand and from overseas who are in Christchurch for the second anniversary of the February 2011 quake.
Brownlee told the 40 journalists gathered in Cathedral Square that the New Zealand Army, currently patrolling the cordon, would leave in July.
The cordon reduction would allow the reopening of the Old Government Building that houses the Heritage Hotel.
The 100-year-old hotel, which had hoped to reopen in March, has set a firm reopening date of May 14.
Heritage general manager Gary Jarvis said the repairs and upgrades to the hotel had cost "millions of dollars".
"We are very very excited about reopening. This will be a huge lift for Christchurch's tourism sector."
The hotel's newer high-rise rooms in the tower next to the Old Government Building would no longer be part of the hotel, he said.
However, the building's owners had yet to decide what would happen to it.
Bookings for the hotel would open about three or four weeks before the official opening.
Students will return to the central city in April.
About 250 students and 40 staff at the Avonmore Tertiary Institute will move into a new building on the corner of Hereford St and Colombo St.
They will be among the first people, aside from construction workers, to move back into the heart of the city.
The new two-storey building will replace Avonmore's temporary premises in Brougham St, Sydenham.
Director Karl Yates said there had been fall in student numbersand educational performance since the quakes.
He hoped a "brand-new home" would boost student morale.
Christchurch Earthquake Recovery Authority chief executive Roger Sutton and Christchurch Central Development Unit director Warwick Isaacs are also on today's media tour.

I tried Fedora 19 KDE one more time
My first attempt to use Fedora 19 KDE was not very successful. All in all, it was a blunder. But then I revived my aging LG laptop, which means I decided to give Fedora one more chance.
Live session
This time, things worked out well. I was able to reach the live session without any silly questions being asked. You will note that the kernel has been updated since the official release, so some of the funky stuff may have been fixed. Must have been. But then again, the LG machine is different from the T61 test box, hence the uncertainty.

LISP Deserves a Fresh Look
LISP Deserves a Fresh Look
Peter Coffee
Posted 2006-02-07
News Analysis:
LISP has potential to handle Web-facing applications using fewer lines of code, and with acceptable memory use and execution speed.
Development tools that are programmer-friendly but hardware-intensive, notably LISP, have long been a staple of research domains such as artificial intelligencebut have not been thought suitable for mass-market applications due to difficulties in packaging the executable bits and running them on end-user hardware. Web-facing applications, whose running code resides on servers, shift those trade-offs and invite "research" languages such as LISP to contend for mainstream roles.
Formal studies of programmer productivity and program performancewith multiple programmers doing side-by-side implementations of multiple taskssuggest that functions can be performed with fewer lines of code, with less variability in development time and with acceptable memory use and execution speed using LISP and LISP-based systems.
Developers handicap themselves if they play by old rules on the Webs quite different field.
That which was
The current generation of application developers has been imprinted with a business model of mass-market software as frozen bits, packaged as executable binary files, delivered on inexpensive media unitsfloppy disks or CDsto run on a PC.
This model is merely an artifact, though, of one brief stage in the evolution of technologies and markets.
Click here
to read about the importance of making source code clear.
The model of "bits in a baggie," as one might call it in homage to the Apple II era, defined its own criteria for programming languages: ease of compilation, minimum code size for ease of distribution and minimum memory footprint for acceptable performance on low-cost PC configurations. When product-cycle durations are measured in yearsor, at a minimum, in quartersa cumbersome process of turning source code into saleable bits is tolerable; when a mass-market application is delivered as function across a network, not as raw bits in a licensees hands, the equilibrium state is far more friendly to developers.
That which is
Imagine the perspective of the proverbial man from Mars, the hypothetical observer with no preconceived ideas about what makes sense. The man from Mars sees development languages being chosen as if processor cycles are expensive, when a growing fraction of todays computing workload runs on vast farms of cheap boxes whose cost is spread across entire communities of users. Martian question 1: Cant you use more processor-intensive methods if they deliver more powerful applications more quickly? The man from Mars sees development languages being chosen for their ability to condense ideas into executable bits todaynot for ease of incorporating new ideas tomorrow. Martian question 2: If the language youre using requires you to be as clever as you can just to get something working in the first place, how will you ever be clever enough to improve it?

Dozens dead after ferry sinks in Bangladesh
DHAKA (Reuters) - A ferry carrying more than 250 passengers sank in a river in Bangladesh on Tuesday after colliding with a barge and at least 35 people were dead, police and witnesses said. Scores were missing.
The accident occurred on the Meghna river in Munshiganj district, some 50 km (31 miles) south of the capital. At least 50 people managed to swim ashore, an official said.
The Dhaka-bound ferry, the MV Shariatpur-1, was hit by an oil-laden barge early on Tuesday.
"We have recovered 35 bodies so far but death toll could go up as more bodies are feared trapped inside," police chief Mohammad Shahabuddin Khan said.
Local officials said rescue efforts were hampered by poor light.
Ferry accidents kill hundreds of people in Bangladesh every year, usually caused by overcrowding and poor supervision and law enforcement.

MEXICO CITY — Mexican prosecutors have charged 14 federal police officers with trying to kill two CIA agents and a Mexican navy captain in an August ambush south of the capital city.
The attorney general's office did not state a motive for the attack, which it announced late last week. The police officers have been charged with attempted homicide.
The attorney general said the police officers were off-duty and driving private vehicles when they opened fire 152 times on the U.S. Embassy vehicle carrying the CIA officers and navy captain to a military training camp.
The Mexican officers have spent nearly 80 days in a form of house arrest Mexico uses in organized-crime cases.
Army frees migrants held by crime gangs
MEXICO CITY — Mexican army troops freed 28 people who apparently had been kidnapped, most of them from Central and South America, officials in Tamaulipas state said Sunday.
Such migrants are often preyed on by organized crime gangs and drug traffickers as they try to make their way north to the United States in search of work and a better life.
Troops acted Saturday night in the northeastern state of Tamaulipas after receiving a tip that people were being held against their will in a building, a source in the office of the state attorney-general said.
Six people were arrested. Five of the victims were Mexicans and the rest from Central and South America, including women and children.
Bolivian drug lord caught with ton-plus of cocaine
ASUNCION — Paraguayan officials said Sunday they have arrested a suspected Bolivian drug lord and seized more than a ton of cocaine in a northern city along the border with Brazil.
Special agents said they found a 3,724-pound cargo at a ranch in Salto del Guairo, some 250 miles from the capital, Asuncion.
Agents reported a smaller find Saturday, but additional searches near the ranch turned up more cocaine and an illegal landing strip.
The National Anti-drug Secretariat said the drugs were about to be flown in five small planes to Rio de Janeiro.
Authorities say they arrested suspected drug lord Marco Antonio Rocca Ali and 18 other people, including Paraguayans, Brazilians and Bolivians.
Government turns to court to order Ghana to release ship
BUENOS AIRES — Argentina will ask the International Sea Tribunal to order the release of a seized navy sailing ship in Ghana, the South American government said Monday.
The ARA Libertad training ship was seized Oct. 2 in the port of Tema as collateral for unpaid bonds dating from Argentina's economic crisis a decade ago.
Foreign Minister Hector Timerman said if Ghana does not free the vessel by Tuesday, Argentina will appeal before the tribunal in Hamburg, Germany.
Argentina had warned Ghana that it would take the issue to the arbitrage court late last month following a U.N. convention on the rights of the sea, Mr. Timerman said.
It also asked the African country to immediately restore power and water services to the vessel.
Ghanaian port authorities shut off the water and electricity to the ship last week, when Argentina refused to let it be moved to a less-busy part of the port. Argentina's sailors pulled out rifles to prevent Ghanaian officials from boarding the vessel to move it.
Third person dies after powerful blast
SHERBROOKE, Quebec — A third person has died from injuries related to a powerful explosion and fire at a manufacturing plant outside Montreal earlier this week.
A worker who had be in an inducted coma with burns over 90 percent of his body died Saturday evening, Sylvie Robitaille, a spokeswoman for a Montreal hospital said Sunday.
The bodies of two other people were found in the ruins of the plant in Sherbrooke, Quebec, after the explosion Thursday.
The blast could be heard for miles, and 18 others were hospitalized.
Ms. Robitaille said three people remain hospitalized with injuries that are not life-threatening.
The plant belonging to Neptune Technologies & Bioressources produces and exports health products.
Truth Commission expands human-rights investigation
SAO PAULO — The Truth Commission investigating human-rights abuses committed by Brazil's former dictatorship also will look into the role Catholic and evangelical churches played under the military regime from 1964 to 1985.
Commission member Paulo Sergio Pinheiro says the activities of clergy who opposed the dictatorship as well as the actions of religious groups that backed the regime will be investigated.
President Dilma Rousseff, a former leftist guerrilla who was imprisoned for more than three years and tortured during the dictatorship, last year signed the law establishing the commission. It was given two years to conclude its investigation.
Brazil has never punished military officials who committed human-rights abuses, unlike Argentina, Chile and Uruguay, which also had repressive military regimes.

Father Cantalamessa on the Transfiguration
Pontifical Household Preacher Comments on Sunday's Gospel
ROME, FEB. 19, 2005 (Zenit) - In a commentary on this Sunday's Gospel passage, Capuchin Father Raniero Cantalamessa, the preacher of the Pontifical Household, reveals that the secret to being a true Christian is to fall in love with Jesus.
* * *
Matthew 17:1-9
"Jesus took Peter, James and John his brother, and led them up a high mountain by themselves. And he was transfigured before them; his face shone like the sun and his clothes became white as light. And behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, conversing with him. Then Peter said to Jesus in reply, 'Lord, it is good that we are here. If you wish, I will make three tents here, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.' While he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud cast a shadow over them, then from the cloud came a voice that said, 'This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased; listen to him.' When the disciples heard this, they fell prostrate and were very much afraid. But Jesus came and touched them, saying, 'Rise, and do not be afraid.' And when the disciples raised their eyes, they saw no one else but Jesus alone. As they were coming down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, 'Do not tell the vision to anyone until the Son of Man has been raised from the dead.'"
Why are the faith and religious practices in decline and do not seem to constitute, at least for the majority, the point of reference in life? Why the tedium, the exhaustion, the bother in fulfilling one's duties as believers? Why are young people not attracted? Why is there, in a word, such dejection and lack of joy among believers in Christ? The occurrence of the Transfiguration helps us to answer these questions.
What did the Transfiguration mean for the three disciples who witnessed it? Until then they had known Jesus in his external appearance, a man not different from others, whose provenance, customs, tone of voice ... they knew. Now they know another Jesus, the true one, who cannot be seen with the eyes of every day, in the natural sunlight, but who is the fruit of an unexpected revelation, of a change, of a gift.
For things to change also for us, as for those three disciples on Tabor, something similar must happen in our lives to what happens to a young man or woman when they fall in love. In love, the other, who before was one of many, or perhaps an unknown, all of a sudden is the only one, the only one in the world one is interested in. Everything else recedes and becomes part of a pale background. One cannot think of anything else. There is a real transfiguration. The beloved is seen as in a luminous halo. Everything about that person seems beautiful, even the beloved's defects. One might even feel unworthy of the person loved. True love generates humility.
Specifically, true love changes to a degree even one's life habits. I have known young men whose parents couldn't get them out of bed in the morning to go to school. If a job was found for them, they soon abandoned it. Or they were careless in their studies, never getting their degree. Then, when they fell in love with someone and got engaged, they jumped out of bed in the morning. What happened? Nothing, simply that what before they did by constriction now they do by attraction. And attraction is capable of doing things that no constriction achieves; it gives wings to one's feet. "Each one," the poet Ovid said, "is attracted by the object of pleasure itself."
Something like this, he said, should happen once in a lifetime to be true Christians, of conviction, joyful. "But the young woman or man is seen, is touched!" one might object. Yet, Jesus is also seen and touched, but with other eyes and other hands: those of the heart, of faith. He is risen and is alive. He is a concrete being, not an abstraction, for those who have this experience and this knowledge.
More than that, with Jesus things go even better. In human falling in love there is artifice, attributing to the beloved talents that perhaps that person doesn't have and often in time one is obliged to change one's opinion. In Jesus' case, the more one knows him and the more one is with him, the more reasons are discovered to be proud of him and confirmed in one's choice.
This does not mean that one must be relaxed and wait for, including with Christ, the classic "love at first sight." If a boy or a girl stays shut-in in his house without seeing anyone, nothing will ever happen in his life. To fall in love one must often be with the beloved! If one is convinced, or simply begins to think that perhaps to know Jesus in this different way, transfigured, is beautiful and worthwhile, then one must begin to "be with him," to read his writings. His love letters are the Gospel: There he reveals himself, he is "transfigured." His home is the Church: It is there that he can be found.

ORLANDO -- The Cleveland Cavaliers walked around their plush hotel room Friday, cracking jokes and making dinner plans. They mulled around in flip-flops and T-shirts, their casual attire matched only by their swagger.
There were no signs of a looming playoff elimination game.
The Cavs were so confident they would be back in Orlando to continue the Eastern Conference finals, they packed their bags before Game 5 and had a plane waiting on the tarmac. Cleveland coach Mike Brown even said Friday he had already booked his wife and kids tickets to Orlando before his team's win made it official.
"We just thought there would be a Game 6," Brown said.
LeBron James made sure there was, now a bigger question remains: Will there be a Game 7?
"If there's no Game 7, our season's over," Brown said. "So we're here to win Game 6."
Doing so won't be easy.
The Cavaliers, with an NBA-best 66-win regular season, certainly are 0-4 this season in amped-up Amway Arena -- a place the Magic start fast and finish. The Cavs have been able to build big leads in Cleveland and hold on late, a luxury they likely won't get for Game 6 tonight. It is not only the biggest game in the Magic's most memorable season since the Shaquille O'Neal-Penny Hardway days, it's their best chance left to return to the NBA finals for the first time in 14 years.
The Magic don't want to go back to Cleveland for a Game 7, although coach Stan Van Gundy brushed off any notion that Orlando's last home game in the series feels like their facing elimination.
"No," Van Gundy said. "I can count. I'm good at math. It's Game 6."
The odds don't favor the Cavs.
Cleveland is trying to become just the ninth team since 1947 to rally and win a series after being down 3-1. But the Cavs have reason to feel they have a chance.
They have James.
The league MVP scored 21 points in the second half -- 17 in the fourth quarter -- in Game 5 and had a hand in 31 straight Cleveland points. James finished with 37 points, 14 rebounds and 12 assists to become the first player since Oscar Robertson in 1963 to have such numbers in a playoff game.
The performance already is being compared to James' scintillating Game 5 effort in the conference finals against Detroit in 2007, when he scored 48 points, including his team's last 25.
Cavaliers guard Delonte West, who says his hip pointer injury in Game 5 left nothing more than a big bruise on his right side and he'll be fine to play Friday, pointed out the Cavs have a game plan no one match.
"We give LeBron the ball and get out of the way," West said.
Added Cavs reserve Daniel Gibson, "we've got 23," referring to James' jersey number.
Whether Cleveland can beat the Magic in a seven-game series with that strategy remains to be seen.
The often one-versus-five approach has been enough to keep the Cavs in this series. If not for James' buzzer-beating 3-pointer in Game 2, the Cavs might already be on summer vacation.
James' struggling teammates have given him little support. Even with Mo Williams and Zydrunas Ilgauskas having one of their best games of the series Thursday, it was James who rescued the Cavs from a fourth-quarter deficit.
They just spread the floor and let James go to work.
"For anybody, that could be a load," Brown said. "But that's what makes him great. He has the capability of coming through with that. And the more we can stay from that, the better. If we only have to go to that a couple of possessions, then great."
The Magic are still plenty confident themselves.
They have given Cleveland all sorts of matchup problems -- height, depth, speed, size and shooting range. In almost every facet, Orlando has the advantage.
The Magic have also twice ended series on the road this postseason, winning a Game 6 in Philadelphia and a Game 7 in Boston. Now safe at home, they have a chance to do something the franchise hasn't done since 1995.
"We believe we can win a championship," center Dwight Howard said. "People used to laugh at me when I'd say that. But it's right there for us. We have a chance to take the next step Saturday night."

Losing sparkle: the alarm goes off at jeweller Theo Fennell
Related Articles
Published: 11 January 2013
Celebrity jeweller Theo Fennell today issued a profits warning after another year of poor Christmas sales.
The company, whose bling is worn by stars including Victoria Beckham and Naomi Campbell, said its full-year results would be "materially below management expectations" after "disappointing" trading over the festive period.
Shares in the Fulham Road-based business tumbled by more than 6% to 10.75p — almost half the value of the stock that directors including chairman Rupert Hambro acquired in the company in 2009. At the time, the former Hamleys chairman spent almost £250,000 buying a 6% stake at 20p a share through his JO Hambro business.
But the outlook is not all bad for Fennell. Last month, the group halved its interim losses to £610,000 and said that it was looking to expand in overseas markets such as the Far East, Middle East and Eastern Europe, and to cut costs.
It has also held takeover talks with private-equity firm EME Capital, which was today given until February 22 to decide whether to make an offer.
"Whilst the ongoing uncertain economic environment has impacted the company's sales in the short term, the board remains positive about long-term prospects," the jeweller said.

It all began when a group of women, from the Trenton Church of Christ in Michigan, went on a mission trip to Malawi, Africa. Upon seeing first hand, the devastation brought on by H.I.V. and A.I.D.S., one missionary, Rachel O'Neill, returned home inspired. As most young girls have but one dress, which they wear until it is literally in shreds, O'Neill's idea was to provide simple frocks fashioned out of colorful pillowcases.
Little Dresses for Africa was born of this idea, "Simple dresses are made out of pillowcases and distributed through the orphanages, churches and schools in Africa to plant in the hearts of little girls that they are worthy."
The mission soon caught on, and other churches, civic groups, schools, and just plain 'ole everyday folk are getting involved with this creative, colorful enterprise.
These sweet and simple dresses bring hope to young girls who live in an otherwise bleak environment. The non-profit organizations provide mostly to the children in the Central African area, which is hardest hit by the AIDS epidemic, and has been joined by its companion mission, Britches for Boys.
Many of the children are orphans or are being raised by siblings, with all living in poverty. As such, clothing is a luxury. The distribution of the clothing is held in conjunction with various educational classes centered on nutrition and sanitation. To date the organization and its sister efforts have provided over 37,000 dresses.
Feeling inspired? Follow these simple directions to contribute your own creation.
1) Fold a freshly pressed pillowcase in half length-wise with the fold towards you. Cut off the top of the closed ends of the case, about 3/4 to 1 inch.
2) On the opposite side, you will cut out the armholes. Come down about 5 inches; start cutting in about 2 inches; start cutting upwards to the top; the cut out should resemble a letter J.
3) Open up the pillowcase. From the top, turn down about 1/2 inch and press. Turn down about 1 inch again and press.
4) Sew a straight line to create a casing for the elastic that forms the neckline – do this on both sides. The original hem on the pillowcase serves as the hem on the dress also. The elastic, 2x about 10 inches of 1/2-3/4 inch elastic, is then snaked through the casing on both sides.
5) Secure the elastic with stitching on each end. You are now ready to add bias tape to finish off the armholes. Make sure you allow enough to create ties – one yard per armhole works well.

Silently ScreamingI'm sittin here swallowed in depressionMore Like This
Hollow and detested I got no respect and
My problems are stressin' all I want is affection
Lost in the thoughts of harming my own rotten reflection
When my life is ended and I am breathless
I hope that I have mended this light I'm blessed with
But inside my chest it's just strife I'm left in
Despised and rejected my eyes are infected
With this deep sarrow and hatred too
Like my life was scribbled in and painted blue
And made eskew then chained and noosed
And faced with pains then discraced by you
Encased in a cage created by tainted truth
Then saved by the grace of an angel's crew
By Satan's crew I put my faith in you
So don't worry about me I'll make it through
I'm sittin here moping and choking on my loathing soul
Somebody help me
I'm feeling oh so lonely that I'm growing so cold
Somebody help me
Someone rope my throat my life is greiving
As my soul corrodes in the night I'm wheeping

Questions that eludeI ask myself is it because I don't have a job, I don't wear makeup or make myself look pretty...More Like This
Or is it because I hide my body with shirts that are two sizes to big, pants that keep my legs and feet covered and my hair a mess and tied back.. I hardly sleep as it is.
And the only thing I want out of life is something I've never truly had..
A companion.. Someone to make this looming loneliness go away..
To help me remember what the world looks like with color instead of all gray.. Everything is art, but some of us are just paintings unfinished.. Hidden away behind all of those that are complete.
Or a single flower slowly withering and fading away, like a bitter sweet memory as the wind blows.. as the seasons change..
A statue that's ruined from time, age eating away at the stone or marble.. Until someone comes along and restores it to the glory it was once at.. But.. there are those of us who are forever a broken statue, a shattered vase, a wilting flower, a lonely soul looming the wor

The sun is rising and the sky is a two-dimensional shade of orange. You smile, who knew the land of Ooo could be so peaceful. You feel absolutely stuffed with Jake's pancakes. You're having a kind of happy, warm, full of food feeling. You sigh lazily and close your eyes. You're snoozing off, when all of a sudden you feel something cold, clammy and slightly wet grip your ankle. You lift the pant leg of your pajamas(You fell asleep in your real bed on Earth and woke up in Ooo, so you'd probably be wearing pajamas.You find yourself in Ooo in chapter 1). There's nothing there.

The Window Cleaner
A short muisc video based on the classic song "The Window Cleaner" sung by George Formby
4.37 / 5.00 4,182 ViewsSmall violent/funny/educational movie about elderly driving that I did for my english 3 class. Yes I know I made a few spelling errors, so what, it was 1:30 AM when it was done.
Updatorz: This was not meant to be serious, and Major Props To "Soil" cause you guys rock!!!
Very nice
I liked that:). That was pretty funny. if you had spent a little more time on the drawing, and clarity or the music, and sound, then it would have been a lot better. Good work though.
Elderly arent the only ones who get to have all the fun with crazy driving. Give teens a chance! The car should have been an oldsmobile. How many elderly people prefer cadillac over oldsmobiles? Some one should do a poll.
This kinda reminds me of my grandmother heh really, anyways i may be wrong but in the starting text you had reation maybe i thaught you ment reaction ohwell im sure it can be fixed, good animation with the car and all, nice job, hope to see more soon...
MOVIE COMMENTARY: True story...
That was great
Needs blood, but if it was for school I understand. Go You!

This is a really deep draft. The Patriots have alot of cap room now. Denver wants out of both 1st round picks because of financial reasons. I really have been thinking lately that the Pats might trade a 1st rounder next year for one of Denver's 1st rounders this year. The Patriots could get 2 players that could help us for years to come. The Patriots could also trade the their own 3rd rounder this year for Denver's 3rd rounder next year as part of the same deal. From what I am understanding so far, next year's draft is not nearly as good as this one. Any thoughts?
Can not see the Patruiots wanting a high pick..iff anything, I think they might trade down for more value.
Value doesn't seem to be that great in the late first round. Doesn't make sense. Unless, of course, there are 2 players available at 21 that they love - then anything's possible.
Well that is the thing. If there are 2 people he has ranked as hight 1st rounders and they both fall into the 20's I could totally see it happening. Belicek normally doesn't do stuff like this, but we all know to expect the unexpected when it comes to the draft.
i disagree (if i'm reading you right)...i think the first ten or twelve in this year's draft have something special to offer and then the next fourty or fifty are a wash...i think a player that BB might have his eye on at #21 (marshall or allen or carpenter or ryans) could still be available in the mid to late second round)...after the first twelve players, anything could happen
Its possible but I don't think I would say probable. If there a 2 players at around 19-25 they absolutely covet but when was the last time the Patriots made this kind of move? I can't recall. Lendale White & Bobby Carpenter? Williams and Lawson? One thing is certain they would drafting for the future core if they really, really wanted 2 players that badly that high.. :rocker: :rocker:
