1 And Jehovah saith unto me: `Again, go, love a woman, loved of a friend, and an adulteress, like the loved of Jehovah, the sons of Israel, and they are turning unto other gods, and are lovers of grape-cakes.' | 1 The LORD said to me, "Go, show your love to your wife again, though she is loved by another and is an adulteress. Love her as the LORD loves the Israelites, though they turn to other gods and love the sacred raisin cakes." |

"This is a family favorite, and I never seem to make enough. One thing, though is the filling sometimes seems to slump. A good friend of mine told me if I beat the egg mixture for no less than 8 minutes (I set a timer) the bars will never wilt. This absolutely works, and they always look bakery fresh."""

> while browsing the toaster web site
I'm very interested in vintage and antique electric appliances and have
managed to collect a few. My parents were married in 1937 and received as
wedding gifts a GE waffle iron, 3-beater mixer, and toaster. I guess my
mom was very careful with her appliaces because all three are still in near
mint condition, though they all had frequent use, and still operate
flawlessly. My grandmother had a Sunbeam Mixmaster, an older model than
the one in the picture. I also have it and it also still works flawlessly.
I have a toaster from 1923, very decorative, but I can't remember the brand
offhand. Other items include a Hamilton Beach stand mixer from the 1930s,
a Hamilton Beach Malt Mixer from the 1940s (from a drugstore), and a
collection of glass vacuum coffee makers. The coffee makers are all
intact, but only one can still be used. The rubber gaskets on the other
pots have hardened and cannot be replaced. The one I sometimes uses a
ground glass seal rather than rubber gasket.
Anyway, they're fun to have and fun to use, and make an interesting display
in the kitchen.
There was no apparent planned obselecence in the old days.
Enjoy your Mixmaster!

"There was absolutely no reason this should have happened," he concedes. "It was inexcusable, unprofessional. I give myself an F.'"
When it comes to his department's response to this mini-tempest, however, Gomez, who began his job in December 2004, is a much more lenient grader. "I think we handled it," he says, "by getting the bad news out."
The folks at CU have had plenty of practice at that. Sleepovers at Michael Jackson's house probably spawned more negative coverage than the school has of late, but not by much. In the introduction to a draft report about rebranding the university that was given to CU regents earlier this month, Gomez and fellow newbie Michael Hesse, the associate vice president for university advancement, offered an extraordinary list of seventeen major crises that bubbled up just during their first three months on the job. Among them were the resignations of athletic director Dick Tharp, chancellor Richard Byyny and president Betsy Hoffman; the fallout from the controversy over professor Ward Churchill; a state audit of the CU Foundation, a fundraising arm of the university; a clumsily handled request for a tuition increase; and myriad flare-ups over charges of sexual assault and impropriety linked to CU's football program, including placekicker Katie Hnida's appearance on the Today show, where she accused an unnamed player of rape.
Gomez admits that he wasn't fully prepared for this relentless chain of events. Indeed, he recalls that upon learning about the CU position, "I thought, 'This sounds like a lot of fun.'" Unfortunately for him, laughs have been few and far between, and he now realizes that "this media market is every bit as intense and aggressive as the L.A. media market" in which he previously toiled. "I would say to anybody who's coming into this market from out of town, 'Don't underestimate it,' because it's a handful.'"
Denver and Boulder shouldn't have been a mystery to Gomez, because he's spent much of his 26-year PR career here. A graduate of Western New Mexico University, located in his hometown of Silver City, he won a PR internship at an IBM office in Boulder that led to full-time employment with a now-defunct Denver firm, William Kostka & Associates, and subsequent communications positions with Public Service of Colorado and the Johns Manville Corporation. In 1990, he traded in Colorado for Akron, Ohio, after being hired by B.F. Goodrich, and he had stints with Ameritech in Chicago and Rockwell Aerospace in California, too. But local newspaper accounts have focused more on his 1998-2002 run with the Walt Disney Company, where, among other things, he oversaw guest relations at the outfit's SoCal theme parks. "I don't know if it's unfair" that CU critics have used the Disney name to make him seem Mickey Mouse, he says, "but I sometimes get a little frustrated that my other experiences are ignored." In fact, Gomez left Disney on his own and was running a start-up consulting business when his mother, a communications professor on CU's Colorado Springs campus, told him about the university-communications opening, which paid a hefty $150,000 per annum.
The institutional relations office Gomez joined had earned a reputation for stonewalling, obstructionism and downright incompetence for a multitude of reasons, at least one of which was tragic. Because Gomez's predecessor, Bob Nero, was frequently absent or incapacitated owing to his battle against pancreatic cancer (which he lost last year), the department seemed unprepared to deal with disasters, repeatedly reacting in ill-advised, knee-jerk fashion. In the aforementioned draft report, authors Gomez and Hesse admitted that the university exhibited "a hostile and defensive attitude when dealing with news media." But they also cited "a near-obsessive news media climate in which the destruction of the University's reputation appeared to be the main goal."
In a June 14 item, Rocky Mountain News editorial page editor Vince Carroll scoffed at that theory, writing, "Most journalists have no axe to grind with higher education, let alone with the state's flagship research university." This argument would have been a lot more persuasive had the Rocky not just completed an unconscionably drawn-out and redundant five-part series on Churchill, whom the paper's been skewering for months. Then again, accusing journalists of wanting to permanently wipe out CU, when they're clearly piling it on in the usual fashion, seems notably paranoid. Nevertheless, Gomez emphasizes that "we didn't pull that out of the air. We talked to upwards of a hundred people: administrators, business leaders, faculty members, students, regents, legislators. And there was a common thread in more than half the discussions we had that the media was somehow out to get the university. That's a perception held by a lot of people, and we thought we needed to be candid about it."

The state closed the Tinley Park Mental Health Center in 2012. | File photo
Updated: February 14, 2013 6:45AM
All of these issues with mental health illnesses should have been brought up to Gov. Pat Quinn when he was closing down the Tinley Park Mental Health Center.
I didn't believe these stories of Link card abuse until recently. I saw this lady buy 48 gallons of milk at once. Then she bragged about how her son owned a shop and Wal-Mart was the cheapest place to get milk. Why can't the people who run the Link card see the abuse?
U.S. Sen. Mark Kirk was interviewed and showed videos of his progress. I'd like to see former U.S. Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. be as transparent as Kirk was during his medical condition. Columnist Phil Kadner seemed more concerned with insurance than the feat Kirk accomplished after a devastating medical condition. That was a great piece of journalism, Mr. Kadner. I'm using that word loosely.
Scott from Hickory Hills
My boss laid me off in December. I worked my butt off but was told business was slow. I learn that he received a $50,000 bonus for keeping spending down and laying off personnel. I know how I would have saved $50,000 if I had that position. It's not the jerks like Mr. Bonus who get the work done. It's the blue-collar man or woman who gets the work done.
Thank God for Silver Cross Hospital turning Korie Kellogg in after seeing bruises on her son's body. Most agencies don't. The systems don't work. They need to be fixed. Look at our children being killed every day by parents. We better help these victims of domestic violence.
Some Republicans just will not give up. Now they want to fight the debt ceiling bill. Some say it may be necessary to shut down the government. They are a bunch of sour grapes. They are still upset about the election. It's all about trying to get even.
I just read that more of our soldiers committed suicide than were killed in combat in 2012. I think the reason for that is these young men were sold a bill of goods that they were going to the Middle East to bring democracy and freedom to people. But they are going over there to protect the United States' oil interests and they are getting disillusioned. It's a shame these people's lives get wasted over government lies.
Mike from Midlothian
Do people really believe that firemen and policemen take the job because of the money? Many have served in the armed forces and still have the need to serve and protect. There have been incidents where I had to call 911 for gas explosions and injuries. They have always been there when needed.

Why did they take the oldies-but-goodies station, WLS-FM (94.7), off the air? All the music now seems to be for the young kids. Don't they think older people listen to music?

In order to get votes, we will have same-sex marriage. We should also allow polygamy, whether it's one woman and multiple men or one man and multiple women. Let's get back to Sodom and Gomorrah and end up in hell.
Some commenters have brought up dressing nicely at a fine-dining restaurant. They criticize some people who are, in their opinion, poorly dressed in T-shirts or jeans while dining at a nice restaurant. It didn't seem to be an issue with the hostess when they we seated. Don't you think it should be the restaurant's judgment who to seat and serve? Is my $100 bill worth any less than your $100 bill just because I'm wearing jeans and you are wearing dress pants? If so then maybe we should judge a book by its cover just to be safe.
Bye-bye, former Chicago Bears head coach Lovie Smith. Hello get-betterness. Get rid of lousiness. Quite living in 1985. Goodbye, Lovie. Goodbye.
I think the SouthtownStar's comics section is no pleasure to read anymore. You have miniaturized the writing to where you need a magnifying glass. That is ridiculous. If you are going to have a section, print it so people can read it.
The United States no longer has any morals. The elite in Springfield and Washington, D.C., pass bills that they are exempt from. They take from those who work and use that money to buy votes from the illegal immigrants and those feeding at the government's pig trough. In Illinois they kiss your butt for votes for the Democrats in power. Wake up, America. This used to be our country. Thank you, U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin, Illinois House Speaker Mike Madigan, Illinois Senate President John Cullerton, President Obama and the rest of you elitist politicians.
Bill from Burbank
I would like to suggest to doctors who work in groups that they should call their own offices to talk to their staffs. See how the customers are treated by these people who act like neo-Nazis. It's almost impossible to get past them. Doctors need to look into this. These people seem to think they have power over everybody.
When are the teachers and state workers going to wake up? The politicians have made them promises that they cannot keep. Besides not contributing their fair share, they steal from your pensions funds. They couldn't care less about the common man. They will tell you anything to get your vote. You keep voting the same thieves in over and over again. And don't think your union leaders aren't in on the game. How many of them will be struggling to make ends meet when they retire? The state of Illinois is doomed. It is unfixable and they know it.

Department of Labor and Industry regulations require fall restraint systems for potential drop heights of 10 feet or more. This design is intended to provide fall protection for maintenance activities and incidental pedestrian and animal traffic. Although placing the fence posts into the fill material directly behind the top of the wall is less expensive, this could interfere with maintenance efforts on any adjacent gutter. This design also presents significant deterrence to ledge travel. The cost of this system may be preferential to that of other restraints. Fall protection is also required wherever a sidewalk, walkway, or bike path is adjacent to a vertical drop of 2'-6" or more. Consider this an alternative to railing in cases where pedestrians, cyclists, etc. will be traveling along the top of the retaining wall and a more attractive railing is not necessary.

Memphis Grizzlies at San Antonio Spurs
Theoretically, this could be the last game we see from the Spurs for this season. But considering Memphis' 16-25 road record, I wouldn't be on it. Then again, I wouldn't have bet they'd take Game 1 in San Antonio either, and look how that turned out.
Denver Nuggets at Oklahoma City Thunder
Then there's this — a bad road team in the Nuggets takes on a good home team in the Thunder, in Oklahoma City. Not saying the Nuggdawgs can't pull it out, but I'm expecting OKC to have a few days off after this one. Because they closed out the series.
Philadelphia 76ers at Miami Heat
If the Sixers can get another 27-footer from Louis Williams and another barely-block from Elton Brand in the last few seconds of this game, they can win it. Otherwise, not so sure.

As I've stated in previous posts, I cannot handle the scent of any of the Persil "regular" versions (I've tried Megaperls Universal and Color and the Color Gel).
I have been very happy with the Sensitive Megaperls version for my whites. I have been trying to find a Sensitive version to use for colors. I went to a German grocery store today in search of the Sensitive Gel version which, according to the Persil site, is for colors. Instead, I found a powder version of Sensitive for colors. The package has a mother and baby on it. It is 50 loads/5 kg. I don't see anything on their site about a sensitive powder version for colors?? Anyone know a link for more information about this item? I purchased it but all package info is in German and/or other languages I can't read. Thanks for any insight. |
Follow-Up Postings:
I will admit that Persil can have a very strong odor when you first purchase it. What I do is put the box out on a shelf in the garage for a few weeks. The odor decreases signifigantly to tolerable levels. It then has a nice pleasant scent that won't knock you off of your feet. |
- Posted by livebetter (My Page) on Sat, Jul 17, 10 at 9:41
I have tried "airing" out the Persil but that didn't seem to reduce the scent enough for me. I did one load last night with this new Sensitive Powder for Colors. It smells just like the Sensitive Megaperls Universal - which is nice as the smell is much softer than regular Persil and it seems to dissipate more quickly. I am used to the Megaperls dosing (which on my package is also in English). This powder version has no English on the package so I'm just trying to figure things out. The dosing seems to recommend (for a 4-5 kg load or washer?) I used about 1/2 cup which is approx 120 ml. I think this was too much for me. I will reduce it slightly more next time. There were a small amount of suds left at the bottom of the glass door (just a few) and the smell was a little stronger than normal with the Megaperls. It seemed to clean well and the laundry came out soft without FS. I have moderately hard/hard water (8.63 grains/Imp gallon) and my machine is a 9 year old Frigidaire Gallery (which I think is 3.1 CF). I am getting new machines this fall – yeah – maybe Miele after all the rave reviews here :) |
Whoa, you are using too much Persil. We have 9 grains in our water and we use 75ml of Persil for very dirty clothing and 50 ML for lightly soiled clothing. Remember, you usually won't see more than a bubble or two on the window glass in wash mode. But the detergent IS working. |
- Posted by sshrivastava (My Page) on Sat, Jul 17, 10 at 17:53
180 ml sounds like regular Persil, not Megaperls. For a normally soiled load in medium hard/soft water you are looking at 85 ml, or 6 tablespoons with Megaperls. Miele's web site indicates to add an additional 45 ml (3 TBS) if you have a larger 7-8kg machine, which is your typical large American style front loader. I have a whole house water softener and use 3 TBS for a full 8 kg load in my Miele W4842. Sometimes I will add 2 TBS of sodium percarbonate to that when I want extra whitening. |
- Posted by livebetter (My Page) on Sat, Jul 17, 10 at 22:03
dualred and sshrivastava, are you talking about regular Persil or Megaperls? I have the Megaperls Sensitive and I use about 30 - 45 ml depending on load size/dirt (that seems to work perfect for me). This new Sensitive for Colors is a powder not Megaperls. I assume that would be regular Persil. The package seems to have countries like Bulgaria, Russia and Hungary on it. No German that I can tell. See my link to the exact package on the Persil Bulgaria site. I'm thinking Ľ cup should be enough – roughly 60 ml for a regular load? The half cup (120 ml) was definitely too much. But based on what the instructions said I was under dosing? Anyway, not sure what I'm using here since I can't read any of the information but it seems to clean well. When I reduce the dose the fragrance won't be too strong which will be better (it was definitely too strong with the ˝ cup). I picked up some Nellie's the same day and I'm trying that for colors too. I was trying to find a detergent with no optical brighteners that I like (cleans without too much scent). The Nellie's seems to be cleaning well … although time will tell … |

This is the best site I have found. They alos have Persil Gold and Persil Scan system, all new to me. |

- Posted by sshrivastava (My Page) on Sun, Jul 18, 10 at 14:11
After looking at the German Persil site (www.persil.de) and doing some google translations, it seems Persil Gold comes in two versions - Megaperls and regular powder. The dosage is about 50% higher with powder versus the Megaperls. If your box does not say Megaperls, then it is not the concentrated version of that product. Using 1/2 the recommend dosage is a good place to start. Adjust up or down according to wash results. |
Hello all, I'm new here and a cerfitied laundry freak. I'm so bad I go on youtube to watch videos of different washers in action.I've had my Whirlpool duets for about 8 years or so,and I live in the DFW area(Dallas) I've been lurking here for a while now and finally decided to join today to ask about this Persil I've read so much about. I would like to give it a shot and see if I get the results many of you here have experienced, but would like to know if anyone in my area knows of a store where I can purchase it locally instead of buying online. Some of you can be brutal in your responses, so I ask that you please be gentle. Have a great day everyone... :) |
- Posted by houserookie (My Page) on Sat, Jul 31, 10 at 0:44
I don't know if it's sold around the Metroplex. Maybe a German store may have it. I just bought some online, no taxes and free shipping. At abt.com. HTH |

Modern Chinese Art
At the same time that China has faced its largest challenge in history in terms of sovereignty, dignity, and culture, its art has been influenced by the importation of Western styles and aesthetics. The two artistic traditions clashed, coexisted, and were integrated. To understand the artistic impact of the West and China's reaction to it, we will, in this intermediate-level course, investigate the journey from its beginning, the Opium Wars, to the present, an era of urbanization in a global context.

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Korena told me to send you some questions. I don't have much since I
haven't read much about Russian intel since KGB. But here are some quick
1. What are the main changes in Russian intelligence since the fall of the
Soviet Union? especially cultural shifts?
2. What impact did changes in funding have? How would he judge the
current effectiveness of Russian intel against KGB in the past?
3. Many state that the KGB trained Iranian's MOIS in disinformation, but
none share specifics. Does he know anymore about what kind of training
was done?
4. Is Obama a russian plant?

Porta Potty peeper sentenced to 3 years in prison
Luke Chrisco's sentence was handed down Friday in Boulder. The 31-year-old pleaded guilty in July to attempted unlawful sexual contact and two burglary counts.
Police arrested Chrisco in 2011 after a woman at a yoga festival in Boulder noticed something moving in the tank of the portable toilet, then saw a feces-stained man emerge and run away. Police say he also was suspected of hiding in other bathrooms around Boulder to watch women use the toilet.
KUSA-TV reports that prosecutors dropped other burglary charges and a misdemeanor count of criminal invasion as part of a plea agreement.

There's nothing too fancy going on with the HD 5570 OC. GIGABYTE has opted for a larger 80mm cooler, though, which does take up two slots. Connectivity sees a single Dual-Link DVI connector, VGA port and HDMI port. No Crossfire or power connector is included on the card.
The card as we mentioned is an overclocked one. While the 1GB of GDDR3 has been left at the default 1600MHz DDR, the core has had a slight bump from 650MHz to 670MHz. It's nothing too serious, but it's always nice to see a little bit more power.

I think most would agree that if a situation occurred where you had to draw but not fire - it would be wise to call that in - pronto, and explain circumstances etc.
However, a what if? - you are out front in yard - open carrying (as I do) - and someone walks by who maybe is anti-gun, and/or just feeling in a really bad mood that day. They decide to try and cause trouble and call in that they were threatened by your gun, implying you had brandished.
What the heck could you do? One guy's word against another! No way to prove either way but I have the feeling that it would not be easy to sort out. Perjury for some folks is a way of life!

Department Mission:
The Liberal Studies major fosters students' interests in a variety of disciplines, promotes a cross-disciplinary approach to their course of study, and reveals the ways in which such integration is fundamental to the Catholic, Benedictine liberal arts tradition. As we see in Ex Corde Ecclesiae, interdisciplinary studies, grounded in philosophy and theology, enable students to "develop a continuing desire for intellectual progress," to grow in faith, and to become more aware of the dignity of human life, motivating them to work for God's glory and for the benefit of their neighbor.
Departmental Goals:
A primary goal of this interdisciplinary major is to encourage students in the breadth of their studies, while ensuring that they craft a cohesive and integrated plan for their coursework. The Liberal Studies thesis is the capstone course for this major, and provides students an opportunity to incorporate the various aspects of their studies into a larger research project. The program also seeks to serve transfer students, who are able to incorporate many of their transferred credits into the Liberal Studies major.
(This option is available for Adult Degree Program students only.) Any ADP student who has not previously attended college or has not been enrolled full-time during the past three (3) years must enroll in AD101 Adult to College Transition.
Major requirements
Every student majoring in Liberal Studies must maintain at least a "C" average (2.00) in his or her major courses. Any course counted toward a major requirement cannot also be counted towards a minor requirement.

MEADVILLE — Gale-force wind gusts are taking their toll. 911 dispatchers are reporting downed trees and power lines throughout much of our listening area, leaving hundreds in the dark. First Energy Company is reporting this morning some 19-hundred customers without power in Erie County, close to 750 in Venango County, about 150 in Mercer County, and down to 68 in Crawford County as of late this morning.
Several hundred Northwestern REC customers in Crawford County were also without power.
"If the power does go off, residents are asked to meet with friends and family that do have power," says Crawford County Emergency Management Director Allen Clark.
We're not out of the woods yet with this storm… the National Weather Service calls for a continued high wind warning till 4:00 this afternoon and a flood watch through this evening.

"I was surprised that a cornstarch-centric biscuit could be this tasty. Made them as drop biscuits, and they worked fine. Very impressive flavor, texture, and ease of cooking."
"I made a quick version of this. Canned tomatoes with chiles, garlic and ginger paste, and berbere I bought from a fantastic little Ethiopian restaurant. Very tasty over basmati."
"This is our go-to, can't-think-what-to-make dinner. We usually don't marinate the faux chicken (we use Butler soy curls), just reconstitute it in chicken-flavored broth and fry it up with onions, peppers, and maybe some cole slaw mix. It's great served over rice."
"Good recipe. Because others had said the burgers weren't holding together, I added a couple of flax eggs (1 T milled flax, 3 T water each) and gave the whole mess a quick spin in the food processor. Turns out beautifully, and really sticks together well. The tahini is a little heavy, so I'll scale that back next time."
"Made a vegan version with seitan as the "chicken," Earth Balance as the butter, and Rotel tomatoes with cilantro. Wow. Stunningly flavorful curry, and super-duper simple. We're also on a no-saturated-fat plan here, so the coconut milk gave way to a little coconut extract, water, and corn starch. Next time, I'm going to try canned coconut water (fr..."
"Milder than I expected, but very flavorful and authentic-tasting. The guajillos ground very finely in my blender, so there didn't seem much point in straining the sauce.

University of Arkansas Police Traffic Stop Leads to Major Drug Arrest
Tuesday, December 16, 2008FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – It began as a routine traffic stop for Officer Paul Edwards of the University of Arkansas Police.

On Sunday, Dec. 14, detectives of the drug task force, assisted by the Fayetteville Police Department and Washington County Emergency Response Team, executed the search warrant, seizing approximately 10.75 pounds of marijuana, 0.5 grams of methamphetamine, items of drug paraphernalia, three guns and approximately $44,747.
Police arrested Julie Ann Cooper, 21, and Lenny Gene Albrecht, 28, for possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver (marijuana), possession of a controlled substance (methamphetamine), possession of drug paraphernalia, simultaneous possession of drugs and firearms, and proximity to certain facilities-enhanced. The enhancement charge relates to the drug activity occurring within 1,000 feet of a school.
This investigation is ongoing.

I live and work at home with my soon to be wife Elaine and my 2 year old daughter Seran. Because of work I don't get to cook very often and Elaine does do it through the week most days but I have recently rediscovered the satisfaction from cooking a meal from scratch instead of using a jar or tin of sauce and also the health benefits! I joined here to try out my curry making skills and so far - AWESOME!

Another wildfire has broken out, this time on the northwest edge of Gallatain County.
County fire units from Central Valley, Fort Ellis, and Manhattan were called to the Bean Canyon Fire just after 1:00 p.m. on Monday afternoon.
The fire has burned an estimated 400 to 500 acres and is is burning on private ground south and east of Toston, in grass and mixed fuels.
No structures are threatened at this time.
More than two dozen personnel are fighting the fire.
We will update you as we learn more.
(UPDATE: the fire was originally reported as the Dean Fire; we have since learned that it is the Bean Canyon Fire)

SURELY, most of us take great interest in the high-octane employee-employer bust ups that occasionally feature on the pages of the EADT.
Other than for this, attitudes to employment protection rights vary enormously. But some businesses have for a while criticised employment legislation as being a costly burden imposed on UK companies by misguided Europeans. For those that hold such a view, the coalition will provide a partial remedy in legislation expected to be enacted during April 2013.
This will allow employees to waive certain employment protection legislation on being recruited by agreeing to adopt the new status of "Employee Shareholder".
The status of Employee Shareholder requires the individual to hold shares worth at least £2,000 on issue. So, the individual will have the benefit of being a shareholder, and therefore presumably incentivised in a beneficial way, but have the disadvantage of lesser employment protection rights.
To sweeten the pill, the shares will be free of capital gains tax following a disposal on gains made from up to £50,000 of shares issued to them.
An employee shareholder will be excluded from most unfair dismissal rights, rights to statutory redundancy pay, certain rights to request flexible working and to request training.
In addition, an employee shareholder will have to give 16 weeks' notice to return from maternity or adoption leave, rather than the normal eight weeks.
Not all rights to bring a claim will be given up by an employee shareholder, who will, for instance, still be able to bring a claim based on breach of contract or for discrimination.
This initiative is part of the government's policy of encouraging greater participation of employees in the ownership of companies.
There is much controversy on whether the relaxation of some of the employment protection legislation will make companies more willing to recruit or otherwise assist in the expansion of a company's workforce.
But it is possible that increased flexibility, together with some tax advantages, will be welcomed by some companies, particularly smaller-emerging companies with the prospect of rapid but higher risk growth.
The government has also announced some relaxations in relation to so called tax-advantaged tax schemes.
These schemes can offer some very attractive tax advantages for shareholders in companies that increase in value. With many shareholder valuations being at a relatively low point, now could be an advantageous time to introduce new schemes, especially with the relaxation of some of the restrictions.
Of particular note is the extension of entrepreneurs' relief to enterprise management incentives without a requirement to hold 5pc of the shares of the company. Entrepreneurs' relief reduces capital gains tax to just 10pc on qualifying disposals of up to a lifetime amount of gains of £10m. One of the requirements to qualify for the relief on the disposal of a company is that you own at least 5pc of the shares of the company. This ownership requirement will not apply to EMI options.
In certain circumstances, this relaxation will make the relief extremely valuable and generous, as it will apply in many situations where EMI options are exercised immediately prior to the sale of the EMI company.
Employees holding EMI options that are exercisable now or are holding EMI options acquired since April 6 2012 may wish to postpone any sale of the shares until after April 2013 to take advantage of the relief.

I forgot to share this the other weekend when I went to the beach so here it goes
I had to get gas before we left and most gas stations are pre-paid, I park at the pump get out and I see no entrance for the cash register office so I stand behind a bunch of cars, red as a lobster and still burning up and hope no one pulls behind me, the lady finally says it's not pre pay honey! So I stood there like a fool in a drive through! I could have crawled back to the beach and buried myself in the sand!!!!

Hello, this has probably been asked and answered before but my lawn is taken over in July by this light green very thick diseased grass almost like a carpet, it is very hard to mow and scalps very easily. It goes away in like march and starts to come back in June-July and by the time it's fall all my yard is taken over by this stuff. It gets worse every year. It's a thick, ugly light green carpet type stuff that's ugly. If I can figure out to post a picture on here I'll take a picture of the grass and put it on here. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks. |

I'm not sure this one has ever been asked. If you have a picture, here are some brief instructions: 1. Post the picture to an Internet storage place somewhere somehow. Photobucket is just one example. 2. Get the Internet address of the picture. How? Bring up the picture on your computer at that storage site. Right click on the photo itself and drop down to Copy Image Location. That will copy the address to your clipboard. 3. Come to GardenWeb and paste the address into a reply. But wait, you're not done. You need the right coding to be able to view it here. Pasting it now is just a way to check to see if you have the right link. It should start with http:// and it should end with .jpg. Almost all photos are like that. It might look like this, 4. Here is the way the coding needs to be formatted. <img src="YourHTMLCodeEndingWithJPGHere.jpg"> If your image is larger than 800 x 600, please resize it down to that size. Larger images will make text harder to read on laptops and small screen computers - spreads it out. |

I'm going to guess it is crabgrass. I'm guessing that more from the description than from the pictures. I think you threw me off by calling it diseased. Usually crabgrass starts in the spring, develops all summer long, and has filled in solid by September. Then it dies leaving next year's seeds behind. Improper watering in the spring is how it starts. If you live in the rainy part of WA you might not be able to control it by withholding water. Proper watering is what we call deep and infrequent. Deep means an inch at a time - all at one time. Infrequent means you let the surface of the soil dry out before watering again. For most people this means monthly watering in the cool months and weekly watering in the summer. The frequency of watering is affected by rain, wind, heat, sunlight/shade, humidity, soil type, grass type, grass density, and grass height. Tall grass needs less water because it shades the soil from sunlight and heat. Humid wind will extend the watering interval but dry wind will shorten the interval. Heat evaporates soil moisture faster and shortens the interval. Clay in the soil holds more water and extends the interval. Sandy soil shortens the interval. Thus a place like Phoenix with dry wind and plenty of heat but a relatively clayey soil will have a longer watering interval than Las Vegas which is mostly sandy soil. LV might need to water every 2-3 days in the summer while PHO can go 5-7 days. There is almost no place on Earth that needs daily watering to grow grass. Grass seed (crabgrass included) needs continual moisture to sprout. When you water too frequently, the seeds will germinate. If you can let the soil surface dry out between watering, then the seeds will not sprout. This is the main reason why re-seeding a lawn in the spring is part of a recipe for crabgrass. Crabgrass seed does not sprout in the fall. |

I don't think it's crab grass, doesn't look like it or at least the crab grass I'm used to seeing. I think when it turns to normal grass in March or April I'm going to thatch it and seed it. This grass that's bright green and scalped you can pull it out in big chunks and it's all tangled together. None of my neighbors have it but me. I noticed when the dewy nights start in mid June is when it starts getting like this again. |
- Posted by dchall_san_antonio 8 San Antonio (My Page) on Sat, Dec 31, 11 at 15:58
Pull a piece out, lay it on a paper or something with a uniform background, and take a close up picture. If it has seeds or a seed head that will really help to identify it. Here are some samples of grass seed heads to show you what I'm asking for. |
- Posted by BriggsFordMan WA (My Page) on Sun, Jan 1, 12 at 15:31
Will do, tomorrow I'll rip a piece of it out of the ground, I'll get the really brown messed up stuff on picture. |

http://s1102.photobucket.com/albums/g450/matthew19965/?action=view¤t=grass008.jpg The photos may not be the best but they were the best the camera would take. I picked this stuff off my back yard where it's the worst. |
I'm inclined to think it's creeping bent. Creeping bent looks great cut short, but if you mow at say 3 inches, creeping bent gets stemmy, brown and forms false crowns. It is also susceptable to dollar spot in the summer. It's stoloniferous growth also means when you pull it up, it comes up in a tangled mass. Here's a pic that resembles yours: http://www.turf.uiuc.edu/weed_web/bentgrass/bentgrass_stolon4.htm You can control it with Tenacity, but the way your yard looks it might be a better idea to renovate late next summer/early fall as you will have bare patches from the dead bent. Renovate means killing everything with round up and seeding with whatever grass you want. Or you could lay sod in the spring. |
- Posted by dchall_san_antonio 8 San Antonio (My Page) on Tue, Jan 3, 12 at 23:22
Good one, tiemco! Here are some images of creeping bent. |
- Posted by BriggsFordMan WA (My Page) on Wed, Jan 4, 12 at 0:40
That stuff looks a lot like what I have. Renovating the yard is out of the question. In the summer in the middle of my yard the drainage is so great from rocks in the soil that it gets very thin and dry, sod is just way out of my budget. Are there any products that I can put on the grass to keep this creeping bent stuff away? |
"Are there any products that I can put on the grass to keep this creeping bent stuff away?" Yes, as I said before, Tenacity (the herbicide), but then you will have bare patches where the creeping bent was, and other weeds like poa annua will take over. |

I agree. I have 2) 42" Panny plasma TVs. First one I bought was in 2006 and cost me $2300 after a $1k plus drop and finally wanted a plasma. 2 years ago I ought eh same TV but a newer model for $529!Nope, I keep looking at my 58" 720p Panny plasma that cost me ~ $2,500 and I'll never pay over 2 grand for another TV. Made that mistake once and learned from it (altho my heart filled with lust when I read the Crutchfield write up on the Sammy 4K sets).
Looking to get a new tv in the 55-60" range. But it has to be energy efficient, 1080p, 240hz or faster for sports, no 3D and under $1000. Plasma preferred, but LED and OLED will work when their blacks and refresh rates for sports improve.

DAYTON — Jacob Wheeler chose the road less traveled. It led straight to victory Sunday in the inaugural Bassmaster BASSfest event.
The 23-year-old from Indianapolis amassed 90 pounds, 6 ounces over four days of competition on Chickamauga Lake. His margin of victory was 5 pounds and 10 ounces over arguably the best angler on the planet, Bassmaster Elite Series pro Kevin VanDam, who stepped up from third place to finish as the runner-up.
After leading for two days, Wheeler added a pad of 22-1 Sunday to clinch the win. He took home $125,000 and a qualification for the 2015 world championship, the Bassmaster Classic.
"I feel unbelievable," said Wheeler, who at age 21 made a name for himself on the FLW tour by winning the 2013 Forrest Wood Cup. "To be the first BASSfest champion, and to do it in my first Elite Series event … I mean, these (Elite) guys are the best in the world. I couldn't feel more humbled. The stars lined up for me this week."
The Classic qualification means as much to him as the event win, he said.
"That's so big, qualifying for the Classic," Wheeler said. "That's the event you want to be in for your career to advance. I've wanted to qualify for a Classic since I was 10 years old."
The upshot of his lake knowledge was being able to break away, and not feeling forced to share water on community holes and well-known ledges of the riverine fishery.
Sunday, Wheeler resumed his planned rotation of spots, both deep and shallow, beginning with one ledge he'd laid off Saturday to decoy spectators away from it so he could rely on it for winning bass.
His decision was golden. He landed 17 1/2 pounds by 9 a.m. Sunday. It was the early limit he had hoped for.
"That allowed me to chill out and relax, get in a rhythm," he said. "I was then able to calm down, make good decisions."
Wheeler next ran to his "swimbait hole," a secondary ledge with a hard-shell bottom. This was the magic spot that has produced his 8-15 and two 7 1/2s earlier in the competition. There, he added two to his catch total and culled up.
"The key to getting those fish to bite was coming in on top the ledge, casting out, letting the bait fall in 20 feet of water, and bringing it up the ledge into 15, and they would eat it when it got to the top," he said.
A 4 1/2 was his final keeper of the day that made a difference. It gave him a 2-plus pound cull.
He landed 14 keepers Sunday to cull to his best five bass for his 22-1 weight.
Of all the techniques and lures he used to win BASSfest, Wheeler could not pinpoint one as most important.
"They all were so key," he said. "I caught the majority of my fish on a swimbait, but some of the bigger ones were on a hair jig, a few on a worm and some on a crankbait.
The lures were a 6-inch Basstrix swimbait in the Tennessee shad color rigged on a 3/4-ounce VMC Ike Approved swimbait head, a Rapala DT20 in disco shad and a homemade hair jig.
"The jig is something subtle. It's 1/2 ounce with a good hook," he said. "If the fish won't bite anything else, sometimes they'll eat the hair jig if they've been feeding on gizzard shad. The hair flattens out in the water to look like a big gizzard shad."
VanDam — a 20-time Bassmaster winner including four Classics, and a seven-time Toyota Bassmaster Angler of the Year — moved up from third place to finish in second place at 84-12.
VanDam's final-day weight of 23-8 made a run at Wheeler. He began the day with more than 7 pounds to make up.

Why aren't sheets of college ruled notebook paper constantly suffocating students as they attempt to take notes in class? I'll tell you why, because paper can't beat anybody, a rock would tear that crap up in two seconds. When I play rock/ paper/ scissors, I always choose rock.

A Visit to Stroke02
A Munich Street Artist Reports from the City About Last Week's Stroke02 Urban Art Fair
by Don John
Last week I attended Stroke02, a 4-day art fair for Urban Art that takes place in Munich, Germany. It is held in a former Federal Bank office building that is about 4 stories completely full of exhibitors.
I was with the gallery/store called Rocket, where I exhibited together with Lake from Berlin and Johannes König from Munich. Last year the Stroke festival had 7000 visitors and my guess is that this year was about the same.

The housing market in the LA area is looking like a Soviet grocery store to a lot of buyers right now: Empty shelves and a lot of hands grabbing for what's there. And while it's true that the inventory is down sharply, there are still gems that are being listed. The only problem is that you have to act fast to get them, since a lot of them are going pending within days, often after a brief but ferocious bidding war.
The data below are the main trends for the City of Los Angeles, but you can see the housing market data for the entire LA area here.
The perfect storm for sellers in LA
Buyers? They're definitely hungry in LA. March saw a 24.6% spike in home sales from February, making it one of the most active months in the last year for home sales.
Sellers? The extraordinarily few home sellers out don't have to worry about much competition. Inventory in the city of LA in March was down 16.7% from February, and down 38.7% from last March. That's the lowest we've seen in the last year. When you combine the fast pace of sales with the low number of homes for sale, we're seeing a lot of competition, bidding wars, fast sales and frustrated buyers.
In fact, of LA-area cities with more than 100 homes for sale, only one showed monthly growth: Inventory in Beverly Hills grew 0.4%, from 263 homes for sale in February to 264 homes in March. Even still, inventory there was down 29.8% year over year.
Prices stay put
Even with the increased demand, buyers aren't ready to pay much more to buy a home in the LA area. The median single-family home price is up 5% month over month, and 0.6% year over year to $355,000. Condos moved a bit more, with a median price increase of 5.5% month over month to $290,000. If the inventory freefall continues, buyers will have to make a choice: Offer more money, or stay on the sidelines.

Benchmarks - Random and Sequential Workloads
Our 4K Random read/write workload consists of 16 threads all at QD16, results our measured in IOPS (Input Output Operations per Second).
The TerraMaster really excelled in our workload testing, pulling in an impressive 1155 IOPS write and 407 IOPS read in RAID 0.
RAID 1 with the F2 NAS 2 was again impressive, here we have 592 IOPS write and 249 IOPS read.
Our Sequential read/write workload is centered on 1MB transfer sizes again with 16 threads and a Queue Depth of 16.
Our RAID 0 sequential workload results from the TerraMaster F2 NAS 2 had the NAS trading blows with the Thecus NAS. Here we have 121 IOPS read for the F2, slightly above the 114 from the N2560. In write testing positions switch and we have the TerraMaster NAS coming in at 58 IOPS, where the Thecus unit is capable of 98 IOPS.
Sequential testing in RAID 1 left the TerraMaster with 46 IOPS read and 42 IOPS write, well below the comparable Thecus N2560.

Serves 4
Borasheht (or brochettes/kabobs) can be any sort of skewered meat. In our recipe, tender pieces of lamb are marinated in a spicy sauce. As you bite into the lamb, your mouth fills with a hint of cinnamon and garlic, mild tang from the vinegar, and a steady, creeping burn from the cayenne (about mild, on my scale).
NOTE: If you would like some extra heat on the side, try our Kan Kan Kan spice blend, popular in Burkina Faso.
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp cayenne
3 cloves garlic, crushed
salt, to taste
2 Tbsp vinegar
1 1/2 lbs lamb meat, cubed for skewers
1. In a small bowl, mix together paprika, cinnamon, cayenne, garlic, salt, and vinegar.
Have I told you recently how much I adore garlic?
Salt not only adds flavor, but tenderizes the meat as well.
Give everything a quick stir. No power equipment needed here!
2. Rub marinade all over the lamb pieces. Refrigerate overnight, or for at least 3 hours.
Keith snuck this photo when I wasn't looking. I would have changed my shirt. I would have done my hair. But he wouldn't let me redo it. Thank goodness love is blind. And blurry.
The next day: thread the meat onto the skewers (try to put large pieces together on some skewers, and small pieces on others).
Cook on a medium grill. Make sure its nice and oiled so the meat doesn't stick.
Flip the skewers to finish (you're aiming for medium).
Serve as part of a Burkinabe feast!

16 Movie Characters We Want to Spend Our Last Days With
Cinematic Listology By Kevin Carr on June 22, 2012 | Comments (2)Just as the fears of global cataclysm at the end of the last century fueled films like Deep Impact and Armageddon, the ticking clock to December 21, 2012 has led to more end-of-the-world movies that rely on something larger than a zombie outbreak or a deadly contagion (although those have been recently popular as well). The latest entry into Hollywood's obsession with the Earth's last days is the apocalyptic rom-com Seeking a Friend for the End of the World, and if the Mayans were right, that might very well be the last one made. Film School Rejects responds to your concerns about the end of the world, as evidenced by the Apocalypse Soon feature currently running on this site. While you're catching up on these films to see before the end of the world, we wondered who would be the best people to spend that time with. Steve Carell's character gets to spend the end of the world with Keira Knightley, and here are some cinematic characters with whom we'd like to spend our last days.
This week, Fat Guy Kevin Carr found himself awake on a distant planet being hunted by macho Rastafarian aliens. Then he realized he was still dreaming. Sucked back into reality, he dove into the 3D experience of Despicable Me and reached for a dunce cap for Predators.
I've been looking forward to Despicable Me for a while; having seen trailers, the 3D animated film out of Universal looked like it had the potential to be a lot of fun. While I was far from unhappy with the final product, what seems increasingly to be a universal truth surfaced once again — all computer animated film fare is measured against the visual and storytelling juggernaut that is Pixar… and they remain the unwavering king of the mountain. Despicable Me is the story of Gru (Steve Carrell), a past-his-prime villain heavy on unsavory aspirations but lacking in execution. One day Gru learns that every baddie, himself included, have been left eating dust when a mystery evil genius steals one of the Great Pyramids. Not content to be outdone, Gru devises a plan to infiltrate a secret base, swipe their experimental shrink ray, and steal the moon.
This week, Fat Guy Kevin Carr hands out grades to Shrek: The Final Chapter 3D, MacGruber and Human Centipede.

Today not much difference tomorrow/holy spirit better.
I also don't have any problems with mana so the mp5 wasn't important.
The article lists a lot of meta gems. As far as I'm concerned there are only 2: the IED if you have mana problems and the 3% crit healing one otherwise.
If you use the IED you'll need some subpar gems to activate it otherwise generally ignore slot bonuses and just use spell power.

Shamcey Supsup is Ms. Universe 3rd runner-up
-A A +ATuesday, September 13, 2011
MANILA (Updated 11:02 a.m.) -- Miss Angola Leila Lopes was crowned Miss Universe 2011 Tuesday (Philippine time) at the Credicard Hall in Sao Paulo, Brazil while Philippines' pride Shamcey Supsup finished as third runner-up.
The pageant named Ukraine's Olesya Stefanko as first runner-up, Brazil's Priscila Machado (second runner-up), and Luo Zilin of China (fourth runner-up).
Other awards were also handed to Miss Montenegro for Ms. Congeniality and Miss Sweden for Miss Photogenic.
Supsup, a native from the General Santos City, competed with more than 80 stunning ladies and received overwhelming support not just from the Philippines but also from the Filipino community around the world.
During the question-and-answer portion, judge Vivica A. Fox asked Supsup, "Would you change your religious beliefs to marry the person you love? Why or why not?"
Supsup answered: "If I would have to change my religious beliefs, I would not marry the person that I love. Because the first person that I love is God, who created me. I have my faith and my principles, and this is what makes me who I am. If the person loves me, he'll love my God too."
The Filipina beauty was also an early favorite in the competition. She was called as the 15th candidate included in the Top 16, seventh in the Top 10 and second on the final five contestants.
Supsup received the second highest fan votes for the swimsuit and evening gown competitions. She was also voted as the number one fan favorite online.
Supsup graduated magna cum laude from the University of the Philippines-Diliman campus with a degree in Architecture and topped the board examination last year.
Contestants from 89 nations on six continents spent the past three weeks in Sao Paulo, trying to learn samba dance steps, visiting impoverished children and kicking a football around for cameras as the globe's biggest beauty contest is held in Brazil for the first time.
The pageant was hosted by NBC "Today" anchor Natalie Morales and the Bravo network's Andy Cohen. Judges were celebrities including Connie Chung, supermodel Isabeli Fontana, Indy race car driver Helio Castroneves, Vivica Fox, Adrienne Maloof, Amelia Vega and Philippine international singer Lea Salonga.

Like myself I'm sure that there are many of you who are guilty of holding onto pieces that " I'll wear to something at some stage". But what if you could swap these pieces for something that you would wear again and again? As the saying goes one person's trash is another's treasure and that is exactly what the swap styles for RSI is giving you the chance to do!
