Australians now 'a nation of furious bullies', writes Beverley Hadgraft in response to DJ hoax call to hospital saga
- From: The Courier-Mail
- December 13, 2012
AUSTRALIANS were depicted as a race of heartless bullies in Britain's leading newspaper overnight.
In a commentary headlined "Australia's sunny face has turned into a nasty scowl" Beverley Hadgraft suggests Australians have lost their sense of humour and become a nation of umbrage takers.
In an article in The Times Ms Hadgraft blames the impact of radio shock jocks for lowering the tone.
Ms Hadgraft's column follows rage in the UK over the tragic death of nurse Jacintha Saldanha.
Ms Saldanha, a mother of two, took her own life just days after connecting a phone call from Sydney DJs Mel Greig and Michael Christian to a ward nurse at London's King Edward VII hospital, charged with caring for the Duchess of Cambridge.

I think this women is holding on too tight she needs to learn to let go. It was a prank gone wrong that is correct but for this women to take her own life there seems to be an underlining issue here. This Ms Hadgraft claimimg that all Aussies are bullies makes me wonder about the poms.

I couldnt agree more with this article. I think what has occurred over the last six months has been years in the making. The current climate of doom and gloom from our politicians and the absolute disgrace of our parliment is only one example of this becoming part of our new way of life. The alcohol culture and violence that has brought upon our streets as well as the gang activity that has put some parts of sydney in a almost no go zone and a police force who seem not to be able to even come close to controling the situation has enhanced the feeling that Australia has changed for the worse.

As with most countries, it's the minority of idiots (most often the loudest) that are heard. Now, the idiot with a computer can be seen/heard instantly across continents. Notwithstanding this, I'd love to see our politicians get back to actually running the country and give the mud-slinging a break. You know, just for a change.

Remember this is a country now with a predominant population of drug crazed fools who drink too much and cannot handle their alcohol. This is a country where kids just want to smack the living daylights out of someone because its something to do. This is a country where multiculturalism is on a cliff looking down into a huge fire of oblivion. We are a country that is dying because we have lost our direction, spirit and identity, and the morons on the radio are just speeding up this deathly knoll

I hate to say it but, I agree. I am tired of the relentless agression and bullying by the shock jocks. Their behaviour is being reflected across society. We see agression on the roads, in shopping centres, and pretty much every where. I am tired of it.

we are a bunch of arrogant overweight rednecks who reject any decent attempt to culture up. We are still nothing but a country town (no disrespect meant to people who live in them)...Our humour is lacking, tell me how many Australian "comedy films" have we got say in the last 10 years? Hey forget "The Castle"! that's so 90's. We used to laugh at ourselves, Con the Fruiterer, The Wog Boy etc..All we have now is Cronulla Riots, and Bankstown Shootings, and DJ's with lacking tact. Hey while I am writing this I got a parking fine! Pffftttt...

I can assure you that a LOT of Aussies don't listen to the crud they call radio these days. Please Ms Hadgraft, please do not lump us all together because of your experience. You need to live in a different suburb, perhaps a different state because I see the complete opposite.

Marky Mark of Sydney Posted at 3:39 PM December 13, 2012
Not surprised given the huge influx of migrants who have brought many a poor behaviour along with them. If you sat, relaxed on a beach and found your neighbour came and sat with his or he crowd, sneezed all over you, was impolite, started yelling at each other and basically interrupted that nice tranquility you had worked so hard to earn but they had bought in using money from sweat shops they had run overseas, do you think you'd still be relaxed and laid back? Have a think about it.

Rebecca Dalton Posted at 3:40 PM December 13, 2012
In my humble opinion, there are several reasons for that: 1. Australia is not the sunny happy little place it was 25 or 30 years+ ago 2. Political correctness and the thought police have effectively silenced what many people used to be able to freely say. 3. In the past, immigrants integrated into society here. That is sadly no longer the case. 4. Some minorities scream racism, vilification and harassment the nano second anyone makes any reference to aspects of their behaviour which may have cultural links, even when those references or observations are entirely justified 5. Mortgage stress and the general cost of living here has sapped people of their "no worries" attitude. 6. The old Aussie sense of mateship and lending a hand has been replaced with a sense of entitlement and turning a blind eye.

Most Aussies have the brains of a front rower, expect defications in hotel hallways and then the average Aussie will show you pride over their accomplishment... I'd say the real problem is a lack of empathy, social grace and basic intelligence...

Al Campbell of Melbourne Posted at 3:41 PM December 13, 2012
Unfortunately Aussie Culture is moving from the laid back and easy going to "Boganism" given the population is now 75% bogan. However that said, some habits die hard and most Aussies will still not ignore a person with an open map. In fact some will use it as an opportunity given that most people who don't know where they are or want directions are strangers or Tourists.............It is seen as a great opportunity to racially vilify them in a drunken stupor then king hit them............!

Betty Buttoney Posted at 3:46 PM December 13, 2012
Ms Hadgraft is like the person who stays at home 24/7, watches the news and is fearful of stepping outdoors. Such a warped view of Australia. We are mostly the same, except living at a faster pace. The only "Australiana" change is the migrant/cultural influences - which enhance the nation. Do you think soccer hooligans have "runied" brand UK? I don't think so. 0/10 for perspective!

Waza of China Posted at 3:47 PM December 13, 2012
I call it the convict attitude. The world just doesn't care what Australia does anymore and it's also the fact that it seems Australia is not moving forward anymore ... from the lucky coutry to the dumb country. Lastly, I just think sometimes an Aussie just goes beyond what most cultures would accept.

People stupidly get on board casting stones also.. A little medieval and backward Yes - It's the British media casting stones at a glass house yet again... And sensationalising stories so stupid sheeple can get behind it and believe every word they print... And then sensationalise it to all they know who disagree with their opinion. What a load of bollocks... I see through it, do you????

Over it!!! of Sydney Posted at 3:55 PM December 13, 2012
Do the people who always blame us migrants for everything wrong in their lives actually have any migrant friends? Not coworkers or friends of friends, but lets say people whose house you have been into and who have been into your house on numerous occasions? I would say no, as they would not be so quick to blame us for their's and the countries issues. I have been living in Australia for 25 of my 26 years and seriously more and more I feel unwelcome just for the fact that my skin colour, facial features, name and/or country of birth seems to make people feel that I am somewhat unworthy of being here just because someone who is quite possibly a second or third generation australian has committed some crime and all of us migrants are to blame for it all. I do not blame new comers for not integrating as why bother when the people who have an issue with your apparent non-integration hate you anyway. And lastly, people who llike to crap on about the world becoming PC, you are all pathetic for thinking that people do not have any right to be offended! You supposedly don't care about these groups, so why bother talking about them in the first instance?

I once heard an interview with a man who came to Australia with nothing and within 3 years was a multi millionaire. One of the biggest things he said was he never listened or watched any news if possible.His reason? Negativity,he maintained it is to hard to remain positive in life while being bombarded with negativity from the press day after day!

Tony of Sydney Posted at 3:57 PM December 13, 2012
Yeah, I'd agree with that. In fact, I'd go one step further and throw in the words 'precious', 'spoilt' and 'arrogant' too. It was probably inevitable but try not to become like the rest of the world Australia. You once had a great, and well deserved, reputation. As Martin of Perth so astutely pointed out at 3.36pm today "We are a country that is dying because we have lost our direction, spirit and identity".

Too right, people like Sam (comment 2) just show you their ugly side, blaming it on Brits instead of taking some of the blame themselves. Wazza is right, the mentality here that I've found in workplaces is to bully and ridicule, especially when the migrants (including Brits) are more successful and richer because of their hard work over the bludging, lazy Aussies.

Alex of Inner West Posted at 4:04 PM December 13, 2012
Can we not accept constructive criticism (and a dose of the truth) from an overseas media for once? It sounds like the truth has bitten some of you hard. We are clearly not the lucky country we used to be, spot on, and that's not necessarily anything to do with any one political party/politician. We've become hate-filled, angry, crude, smug and disrespectful largely due to the virtiol spewed daily by bullies who think they can cross lines and get away with anything (people like Jones and Sandilands represent the above element I've just described) and the latest act by 2Day FM does give our great country a bad name. We do need to remember we are a great country, the lucky country, and have a look in the mirror and see what we can do to restore amends.

I'm a pom living in Sydney, and to be quite frank I have been totally shocked by the demonisation of Australia from the UK press. As if they can talk? err hello Leveson inquiry? they hacked in to a dead little girls mobile phone for gods sake? There attitude is build them up and knock them down, just ask David Beckham. Complete double standards. I'm proud to call Australia home now but urge you all to not demonise us the same was as the press are to you.

Social critic Donald Horne said in 1964 'Australia is a lucky country run by second rate people who share its luck.' The lucky country phrase is not a term of endearment for Australia. "I have had to sit through the most appalling rubbish as successive generations misapplied this phrase." he said People hear what they want to.

She's right in an obvious kind of way but it's always really been like that. She could throw in really rough and ignorant as well. However, Brits shouldn't be pointing the finger at anybody. Having lived in London for years, I can tell you I've never encountered such a bleak, debilitating and dire culture. Rudeness, coldness, smut, racism, bullying, nastiness, class persecution yet 90% are completely crass and condescension are endemic. Australians are probably more sexist but it's definitely only relatively.

lee of perth Posted at 4:07 PM December 13, 2012
The problem is that Australia as a nation has failed to move forward. You just have to look at the way AFL is advertised using AC/DC and the 70's-80's mentality of mulletts and drinking VB. The majority of Australians are rude and arrogant, however I dont think they realise how they present themselves. The attitude of don't like it then leave very much sums up that Australia as a whole is unwilling to change. When I travel overseas I always check in to places with my british passport because I am treated with more respect. Now that is saying something as the british dont exactly have a great reputation when travelling. Let me conclude that I enjoy living in Australia and feel it has alot to offer however for new comers it can be a very cold place to arrive.

Ram of Sydney Posted at 4:09 PM December 13, 2012
I am from Sydney and I have to agree with this article although with difficulty. People are constantly bullied all around us - in offices, public transports and even in schools. What kind of a nation we are turning into? Absolutely no sophistication and mannerisms when dealing with peers, subordinates and teams even in highest and reputed organizations, institutions and positions. All that come across is big built cynical bodies shouting colloquial jargon with multiple occurrences of F***, S***, and others that no decent educated person would like to come across in other parts of the world. Nation of people who cannot help themselves from creating problems for others and putting them down. How can they change to help others? In every other developed country I went to, this is illegal and severe punishment to those who indulge in such activities. I hope multicultural people and people from different parts of the world who now settled in Australia and call her home take over and take this great country forward. This can only happen when people respect people. P.S: Smiling and being happy is good for your health too.

Interesting story. One character had a nice rich deep voice. Others were odd and rather unsettling in their southern tone. Kept me captivated till the end.
"had to stop"
I was about about to finished part 1 on the audio. I was forcing myself to listen. So I went looking for a spoiler. I am not one of those who goes to the last page but I was wary of this book. People either hate it or love it. I personally decided that I did not want sick twisted thoughts from these people in my head. I quit it. Delete. Sorry that is a bit of a spoiler but I wish I would have known. So if you like grim towns, sorry people and a long, long running mystery of whiney dribbling bits of failing and pychos ....go for it.
Long what's the point if you switch
Voices ok. Hated the character of Nick's father.
I thought it might but then no. I don't want to ever think about it again
The movie will probably be a great scary event.
"Author never disappoints"
If you like Kate Morton's other stories, you will like this one too. I always enjoy her characters and finding about what lead them to keep a secret for so very long.
Dark, Powerfull and interesting
Kate Winslet
Leading up to the accident
When the mother finally understood and ac knowledged to herself that she knew what had happened to her son.
A classic
"What the whoooopppp!"
If there hadn't been so much talk about this book, I would say skip it. But everyone is talking about it and curious.
The girl is a simpleton. Saying "oh my" every other line. No man talks like Mr. Grey.
He might do those things but talk and act like he does. No way. It reads like some girls fantasy and not realistic.
She read the part of Anna fine but her male voice was just sad. Now the male dialog was ridiculus. So she didn't have much to work with.
Its a curiousity but really it is not worth it.
"Interesting but"
good sci fi story line.
The giver. futuristic. all power taken away from people.
Interesting. Keep me interested
the hype was great, Young teen type interest. Blood and gore with love. Not interesting enough to read the next two. I don't care who she picks. Who woould want to get married and have a family in such a world.
I don't want to tell people not to listen. It is interesting and entertaining but it just didn't knock my socks off. Also the people in the story act as if there is no God. He is never mentioned in any way, shape, or form. Not a world for me.
fun, fantasy circus
I love books with imagination. I would love to visit this circus. I am still thinking about it.
If you can't imagine all sorts of new things, think out of the box or love with all you mind and soul, move on to your small town books. This one is for those who love to invent and soar to new places with no bounds. Go for it and enjoy!!
"Didn't know I would like japenese war stories"
I could not put this story down. Sure it's about something I would never have thought I would be interested in but Ms. Hillenbrand was inspired from above to write such a touching and devotional story. It is a must read for Christians.
"Good southern voices"
I liked the voices on this story. The storyine was interesting, sometime predictable. Maybe not a rich story but good nonetheless.
The child's voice does not appeal to me.
The mother's voice is soothing but it seems too old for the part. and too soft.
The child's voice just gets on my nerves.

Young Thor
- Publisher: Frima Studio
- Release Date: Jul 20, 2010
- Summary:
- Developer: Frima Studio
- Genre(s): Fantasy
- Cheats: On GameFAQs
- More Details and Credits »
Score distribution:
Positive: 9 out of 14
Mixed: 5 out of 14
Negative: 0 out of 14
Above all, as a portable game Young Thor hits the mark. Levels are portioned out appropriately, with an easy-to-follow story and the option of more depth.
Young Thor would have been a very good Mini if it wasn't for some bugs and annoying details. Nevertheless, one of the best Minis out there!
Young Thor is a mini that is big on action and fun. It's an enjoyable and simple side-scrolling action title that's certainly worth its small cost of entry.
The simple, bold graphics, tailored for smaller screens, look fine on the living room telly and the soundtrack is not obtrusive or distracting.
As a full-price game, Young Thor isn't that great. But as a Playstation Mini, it's pretty impressive. The amount of content that was managed to put into this game, whether it's the variety of enemies, the level sizes, the treasures to collect, even the in-game achievements you can earn, is impressive.
As a retail game, Young Thor is merely adequate with its charm and ambition almost doing more than the gameplay can. As a Mini, however, it's the new benchmark for how these things should and can be done, and we can only hope it continues.
Young Thor may be decidedly average, but considering the likely target audience, it should be money well spent if you need a cheap game to satisfy a young gamer for a day or two.

The Window Cleaner
A short muisc video based on the classic song "The Window Cleaner" sung by George Formby
4.39 / 5.00 5,581 ViewsOur brand new series, "Clock Suckers"
PREMIERES FRIDAY MARCH 16th at Collegehumor.com
So be sure and check it out!!
Have fun at collegehumor.com...
Good series, but unfortunately you're leaving the community which got you famous.
Enjoy the little bittta cash collegehumor.com is giving ya.
A great looking series showcased in this trailer.
"Clock Suckers!" Now this is a trailer!!! I am not the biggest of trailers, but this teases just the right amount. Showing off dinosaurs alone gets my attention. Your aniamation style contiously seems to be improving and evolving. The characters look fantastic and I for one can not wait to watch a full episode of this. With cameos from Daniel Son and Mr. Myagi, this looks like a true winner. Awesome original song to boot! I will be keeping my eyes open for your next work!
"Perhaps the word "Trailer" in the title was misleading to you somehow..."
lol Moron XD
Looks like a good series, this intro is like professional quality, it looks just like a real TV show intro. With the whole character freeze and background disapear effect, worked real good for it.
Can't wait for the series
luv this show
but... for some reason something strikes me as odd.... I was sure this had to be a trailer for Spiderman 4...
Phew, thank Bunny it ain't!
Is it...
Is it a preview or something? Because its not looks like an episode to me, more like a trailer..
Perhaps the word "Trailer" in the title was misleading to you somehow...

So where is the best place in America for a family to live? Based on the latest 'Wallet Hub' findings, the report takes into consideration availability of quality jobs, cost of housing, schools, available health care systems and places for fun family recreation. Is it Abilene? Take a look.
Late Thursday afternoon, around 4:30 p.m., authorities were called to Vaughan Foods South Plant in Moore after receiving multiple reports of a shooting or stabbing at the business near Moore High School.

Last night, 2 golden retrievers showed up at my house. After sharing the pictures and asking for advice on Facebook, I finally connected these dogs with their worried owners. After this little adventure, I decided to share a few details about what to do when you come across a stray animal.

The best street style from London Fashion Week: http://ow.ly/p48HS via @StyleCaster
"My stylist, Petra Flannery, said try color. She sounds like my grandma. My grandma always used to tell me that when I was growing up. I was like, 'No. I'm never going to try color. I'm a New Yorker. I'm always going to wear black and solid colors.' Then you realize, 'Oh, color really suits me.' It helps my personality a lot, too. It affects you with happiness."Read MoreLess

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Popular searches on the Internet include spending cuts as President Obama and congressional Republicans must hash out the issue of reducing the deficit, now that the "fiscal cliff" deal has been reached.
The agreement on the so-called fiscal cliff, which was approved late Tuesday by the House of Representatives, is seen as a victory for Obama, who won his re-election on vows to raise taxes on the wealthiest Americans. Through the agreement, taxes will be raised on individuals making over $400,000 per year and couples who make over $450,000.
But now, the focus turns to the issues of spending cuts and raising the nation's debt ceiling. While Obama signed the fiscal cliff deal into law late Wednesday, it will likely still be weeks until the debt-ceiling debate is settled. The deal did not include a provision to raise the debt ceiling and scheduled spending cuts have been delayed by two months, which means another stand-off between the Democratic administration and Republican-controlled House is very likely in the coming months.
Moody's is trending as the credit rating agency has weighed in on the fiscal cliff deal. Moody's Investor Services said in a statement that U.S. lawmakers will risk a possible downgrade of the country's "Aaa" credit rating in the coming months if additional steps are not taken to reduce the deficit. While Moody's is encouraging Congress to come up with a plan to lower the deficit, it said it expects lawmakers will take the steps necessary to do so. Moody's had warned in September that it would likely cut its rating by one notch if the budget negotiations failed at the end of 2012.
Standard and Poor's is also speaking out about the budget agreement. S&P said while it would not change its rating based on the deal, it warned that the agreement did little to put the country's finances on "more sustainable footing." S&P lowered its rating on long-term U.S. debt to "AA+" and assigned a negative outlook to it in August 2011. On Wednesday, S&P reaffirmed its opinion of the government, saying, "Washington's governance and policymaking had become less stable, less effective and less predictable. We believe that this characterization still holds."
Starbucks (SBUX - Get Report) is another popular search. The coffee chain is set to open its first store in Vietnam next month. Starbucks plans to partner with Hong Kong's Maxim Group to open the store in Ho Chi Minh City, as part of its focus on expanding its presence in Asia. The company opened its first stores in India only months ago, and already has 3,300 in the Asian region. Vietnam marks the company's 12th market across the China and Asia-Pacific region. Vietnam is the second-largest coffee producer in the world after Brazil. Starbucks says it already buys arabica coffee from Vietnam and plans to source more from the country.
The chatter on Main Street (a.k.a. Google, Yahoo! and other search sites) is always of interest to investors on Wall Street. Thus, each day, TheStreet compiles the stories that are trending on the Web, and highlights the news that could make stocks move. -- Written by Brittany Umar.

Blogs Liberty and Power Question for libertarians over at Daily Kos
Jan 29, 2008 3:13 amQuestion for libertarians over at Daily Kos
comments powered by Disqus
More Comments:
Roderick T. Long - 2/1/2008
And here's Tom Palmer on the Protect America Act.
Steven Horwitz - 1/30/2008
Tim Lee criticizes the conservatives (National Review specifically) on FISA.
Again, Gus, I think you're treating the exceptions as the rule here.
Steven Horwitz - 1/30/2008
Well Gus, we read them over 24 hours apart, so perhaps the tone changed in that time.
As you well know, I'm more than happy to engage with folks on the left over the important concerns we share, but I won't do it if my ideas are not being treated seriously. And by that I mean three things: 1) an assumption of good faith (i.e., I'm not a conservative who just wants to smoke dope and have gay sex); 2) a recognition that my goal is to make the world a better place, esp. for the worst off among us; and 3) a recognition that libertarian ideas have a long and noble history of intellectual seriousness.
Where those are lacking (at least two anyway), I am not interested in conversation because conversation is not what I'm going to get. Name calling is. Those on the left who can extend to libertarians the same good faith that we should extend to them will always be of interest to me as conversation partners and political allies.
The crowd at Kos, at least those who posted early on, don't even come close to meeting that standard. I have much better things to do with my time than to try to engage them.
Aeon J. Skoble - 1/30/2008
The problem isn't exclusively right-wingers who misleadingly call themselves libertarian. I think a far more prevalent problem is the tendency of the left to refer to libertarianism as part of the right wing and mercilessly caricature it.
Gus diZerega - 1/30/2008
I'm sorry you feel that way Steve. I just checked the discussions and yes, there are some awful comments. There were also a bunch of more thoughtful comments, some by libertarians. But also – and I think this is important - some of the more ignorant comments exist because so many on the right who are not libertarians have adopted the label. Is Pilon a libertarian?
One of the things that became clear when reading many – I admit not all – of the comments was that some libertarians did get involved, and made good points – but also that libertarianism as a political philosophy has been grievously damaged by its association with a right wing that basically repudiates libertarian principles.
Anthony Gregory - 1/30/2008
Here's some of my stuff on FISA and wiretaps:
David Friedman - 1/30/2008
I can't speak for anyone else, but I've been blogging about FISA for almost precisely three years now, and I've had at least three posts on the proposed legislation to immunize the phone companies.
Steven Horwitz - 1/29/2008
Make it three.
Yes, we should be fighting FISA, but I'm not gonna go over to Daily Kos and try to have a civilized conversation about libertarianism after skimming those comments.
Roderick T. Long - 1/29/2008
Agreed, Aeon. There are plenty of things that mainstream libertarians can be criticised for. But these Kosites seem to have fastened on some of the least plausible cases. These guys don't seem to know the most basic thing about the movement they're criticising.
Aeon J. Skoble - 1/29/2008
It's barely even worth discussing libertarianism with people who begin:
"Why do Libertarians care so much about liberty from taxes, but not from oppression or government interference in one's private affairs?"
So, no thanks for me, but if anyone else cares to, more power to you!

"Two percent black; that's like skim milk."
Owen Smith
"Things are seldom what they seem, / Skim milk masquerades as cream."
William S. Gilbert
"What I've started doing more and more is eat some cereal with skim milk before I go to the big event, and I try to cut back on the surf and turf."
Anthony Williams
"The clear layer is glycerin. You can mix glycerin back in when you make soap. Or You can skim the glycerin off. You can mix the glycerin with nitric acid to make nitroglycerin. You can mix nitroglycerin with sodium nitrate and sawdust to make dynamite. You can blow up bridges. You can mix nitroglycerin with more nitric acid and parafin and make gelatin explosives. You can blow up a building, easy. With enough soap, you can blow up the whole world."
Chuck Palahniuk
"The ball came out of the midfield and it skimmed of one of the defenders. Josh Carter was able to out-run one of their players onto the ball and he and laid it across and Adam finished it."
Mark Kalat
"It is grievous to read the papers in most respects, I agree. More and more I skim the headlines only, for one can be sure what is carried beneath them quite automatically, if one has long been a reader of the press journalism."
Mary Ritter Beard
"It's very small it's about the size of a hard match book box and you skim a credit card through it. It captures all the information."

- Applications
- Application Framework
- Libraries
- Android Runtime
- Linux Kernel
Application Framework:
Application architecture is designed to simplify the reuse of components. Any applications can publish its capabilities and any other application can make use of those capabilities. Application Framework includes:
Views: Used to build an application including lists, grids, textboxes, buttons and even an embeddable web browser.
Content Providers: Enable applications to access data from the other Applications or to share their own data.
Resource Manager: Providing access to non code resources such as localised strings, graphics and layout files.
Notification Manager: Enables all applications to display custom alerts in the status bar.
Actitivty Manager: Manages the life cycle of applications and provides a common naivagation backstack
Android Runtime:
Every Android application runs in its own process, with its own instance of the Dalvik Virtual Machine. Dalvik has been written so that a device can run multiple VM's efficiently. The Dalvik VM execute files in the Dalvik Executable (.dex) format which is optimised for minimal memory foot print.
Linux Kernel:
Android relies on Linux version 2.6 for core system services such as security, memory management, process management, network stack and driver model. The kernel also acts as as abstraction layer between the h/w and the rest of the s/w stack

Buffalo Bills
Overall | Offense | Defense |
80 | 78 | 83 |
Strategy / Game Plan
Offense Tips
While the Bills offense has been far from exciting over the past few seasons, there are glimmers of hope in Buffalo. Talented wide receiver Steve Johnson is the new star target in Buffalo, and he's an upgrade on the departed Lee Evans. Ryan Fitzpatrick is the best quarterback the team's seen since Drew Bledsoe, while there's a passable one-two punch at running back with the versatile Fred Jackson and speedy C.J. Spiller.
Defense Tips
Quietly, the Bills are beginning to develop one of the best defensive lines in football. Star defensive tackle Kyle Williams lines up next to first-round pick Marcell Dareus up front, and while the Bills lack a dominant pass rusher, their sound secondary should actually help produce a unit that's better than most people realize.

TTI Organics is a destination for aesthetic treatments both dramatic and subtle. Detail-oriented beauties opt for eyelash extensions, or request a wax with optional Swarovski crystals. Crystals make another, more understated appearance?but with big results?during microdermabrasion treatments, which slough away dead skin cells to showcase the naturally dewy complexion that lies beneath. Microcurrent face-lifts tighten tired skin, making clients look so young that servers ask for ID before letting them order dishes topped with white-wine or vodka sauce. For a whole-body change, clients opt for spray tans, inch-shedding body wraps, and ultrasonic cavitation.
The aestheticians at Esthetic Skin Care M know that good skin has a lot to do with what you put in your body, so they recommend clients start the day off with a cool jar of one of their detox waters. These tasty solutions are filled with refreshing fruits and veggies to help keep skin hydrated and clear. But when skin needs a little more help, the team fights acne and oil with facials, softens fine lines with chemical peels, and fends off dark circles and puffiness with 24k-gold collagen eye masks. They also tend to bodies, massaging away back tension, hydrating skin with wraps, and removing unwanted body hair with waxing.
The trained technicians at Ana Camargo Skin & Day Spa enhance arm aesthetics with skin-tightening treatments. Wielding TriPollar equipment, which delivers radio-frequency energy deep into the hypodermis, the aestheticians target superficial and deep fat layers to shrink cellulite and increase collagen regeneration for arms that look younger and tighter while waving or opening pickle jars. The TriPollar units heat up the body's accumulated fat deposits, accelerating metabolism and forcing the cells to release fatty acids for disposal by the circulatory and lymphatic systems. The unit's three electrodes, which limit the fat-blasting force to the treatment area alone, allow for a noninvasive and nearly painless treatment, unlike earlier slimming treatments, which caused the current supermodel-overpopulation crisis. Although results may differ, many may see tighter arms in as little as one treatment.
When she was young, Michelle's mother taught her that pursuing dreams is the only way to find true happiness. That's why her mother moved the family from Puerto Rico to Florida, and why today, after a detour through medical school, she runs her own day spa. Among the salon's scents of lavender and candles, she and her staff give clients individual attention during L'Oréal scalp-renewal treatments, all-over blonding processes, and Brazilian straightening treatments. They also accommodate guests seeking complete makeovers with makeup applications, facial waxing, and lash extensions.
Instead of offering quick beauty pick-me-ups, the staff at Premier Day Spa takes the long view?in this day and age, people are living longer than ever, which means that anti-aging skincare is more essential than it's ever been. To that end, the spa calls on imported skincare formulas from Guinot-Paris in facial treatments that take a proactive approach to halting the signs of aging rather than making up for them by wearing pigtails constantly. One such service is the Hydradermie Lift, which uses galvanic current to exercise facial muscles and help rejuvenate sagging features. Of course, Premier Day Spa focuses on more than just aesthetic results?clients can release tension and center their minds with more than a dozen massage styles that range from classic Swedish strokes to Asian specialties such as shiatsu and reflexology. The spa experts also perform detoxifying body treatments, refine digits with mani-pedis, and enhance faces with lash extensions and permanent makeup. With this atmosphere centered on relaxation, the spa does not permit children to accompany adults during their visits.
Upon entering Robar Beauty Salon & Spa, a visitor might first notice the recently remodeled interior, splashes of canary yellow or vibrant fuchsia, or the smell of organic hair products wafting through the air. But owner William Robar?an industry veteran of almost 40 years?remembers his salad days in less prosperous locations. His first salon "was so busy I didn't know where to put the people!" he laughs, recalling its cramped layout. His clientele ranged from street criminals to drug dealers. "In those days it was wild. Every walk of life came into my salon."
Now a sought-after celebrity stylist, William has clipped and styled famous hair for Frank Sinatra, Barbara Walters, and President Bill Clinton, who needed a trim before delivering a presidential speech. Inside his upscale salon, William and his team of certified stylists use their fashion instincts and mastery of the sibilant scissor language to team up with shears and craft elegant coifs for men, women, and children.

I believe there is also a vendor at Ganalda, but I don't recall what they carry.
If you have access to a sector where the Feds have access to cargo ships, I have read that KDF can use them too. I can't confirm that yet, but if nobody else has an answer I'll check into it.
Some commodities are obtained by running certain Marauding DOFF assignments. In this respect, KDF has access to a lot of 'free' commodities that the Feds don't. The downside is that you can't pick which ones you get.

Daydream's Note:
Ma Po, in Chinese, means 'pock-marked old lady'. It refers to a famous Szechwan chef's wife, who created this dish in the 19th century in the provincial capital, Chengdu. Be warned! Ma Po Dofu is hot and spicy, and tofu has never tasted like this before! For a vegetarian version, omit the meat, add more tofu and, after blanching, place in the marinade ingredients for 30 minutes. Brown bean paste/sauce is salty brown sauce made from fermented soybeans, and is found in jars at most Asian markets. It is also known as yellow bean paste/sauce, soy bean condiment, "Yuan Shai Shih" or "Mo Yuen Shih". If unavailable, substitute with black bean sauce. For the Szechwan chile paste, I substituted "toban jiang", (also known as "toban jan/jyan"). Try to obtain the Szechwan peppercorns. They are what give Szechwan cuisine its distinctive flavor. This delicious dish is loosely adapted from a recipe in "Mrs. Chiang's Szechwan Cookbook". It looks complicated, but I assure you it isn't! Just assemble all the ingredients before cooking.

One poem has to be about libraries, books, reading or New York City, but the other two can be about whatever you like. It is the "whatever" ones that, naturally, drew our attention as we made our way through some of the hundreds of entries submitted just in the past two days. Some rated impressively high on the what-the-heck scale.
Here are a few of our favorites, a few about books but most not. It is possible that some of them were not meant as poems but were just tweets with @NYPL in them.
@NYPL i ripped the wings off the wind and fed them to the birds / they aren't as holy as they thought they were. — Drew Knapp (@drew_knapp) 6 Mar 13
Paper @NYPL / pulped rags shucked from corpses / the fibers embracing type / like teeth meat / we'll taste every word. — Matthew Wills (@backyardbeyond) 6 Mar 13
@NYPL To become dead even for a moment is not prudent says Yevtushenko, so resist the gentle pull of the steering wheel always to the right — Peggy Delmas (@PeggyDelmas) 7 Mar 13
Probably should have saved this one for Friday, but... (I suggest you mute before trying).
You are standing in a park in New Zealand. You look up at the top of a hill, and there, balanced on the ground, looking like it might catch a breeze and blow away, is a gigantic, rumpled piece of paper.

A number of surprising titles including a book that I was very proud to work on while at Kane/Miller Book Publishers during the '90's; "The Gas We Pass, the Story of Farts" by Shinto Cho (my boss Sandy Miller did the research, I just proofread it).

Android looking strong in Nielsen report for Q2 2012
Nielsen has issued its report on smartphones in the US during Q2 2012, and even though the smartphone market in general is looking pretty healthy, phones running some version of the Android OS are by far the most popular. In all, 51.8% of smartphone users in June 2012 were using an Android-based handset, while only 34% of smartphone users had picked an iOS device. Android came out on top with 3 month recent acquirers as well, with 54.6% of new users in Q2 going for Android, as compared to 36.3% for iOS.

This is HG for me. I am PPP with a somewhat cool complexion and blue eyes. I use Benefit Dandelion both as a blush and as an allover color. Dandelion is a soft peachy color which gives my face a fresh look with just enough color. When used as a blush, it really brings out the blue in my eyes. I don't really mind the box that this comes in, although it isn't always the most practical thing to travel with. There seems to be tons of product but the price is a little steep at around $26 or $28. I usually use either the Stila #21 or a buffing brush, but I am sure that just about any brush would work well. I really think that this is a must have, especially for those with fair complexions. I am very pleased with this product and will repurchase this again.
This is one of my fave blush...I have light asian skin tone...NC 25 or 30..it works really well...it gives me a light pink shimmer..like I just pinch my cheeks..=)....the only thing I don't like about this..is the packaging and the brush that comes with it....but overall...is a great product..=)
I don't even know why I bought this. It doesn't show up on me at all. I have medium-toned olive skin. I tried to use it as a brightening powder, and still, nothing. I don't care one way or the other about the packaging. At least it's big enough to get a brush in there. Somehow I lost the top and the brush it came with.
I am ghostly pale and this is the blush that I use most. Very light, see through, babypink/rose pink color. It instantly takes me from looking dead to glowing. Miracle in a box. Price is kinda steep for a blush, but there's ton of product in the box. Will definately end up buying again when I run out. I call it "glow in a box".

Gives a very nice pinkish glow on my cheeks. Though the packaging could be better, i would still recommend this blusher.
Pretty, but I really think you have to be quite pale for this to look nice. I used it twice and just couldn't see it! I gave it to my 87 year old Mom and she loves it...she's paler than me.
I'm reallly surprised but I didn't like this blush at all given the raves ... and swapped it away this week. Many things: 1) cardboard packaging stinks and is difficult to use and keep clean looking 2) price is high and 3) IT DOESN'T SHOW UP ON ME.
Maybe I'm a weirdo but I like blush that looks like BLUSH. I like Bobbi B Pale Pink and Nars Desire and Estee Lauder Shimmer Pink Pool and MAC Subtropical.
This is just over-rated and over-hyped and over-priced to me. It just doens't even show up!

Hello. I'm very new to Linux and I got the ArkLinux distro. I know it comes from the RedHat/Mandriva line, but it's for use on a personal computer and it's ...

How do I use my WUSB11 v2.6 Linksys Wireless-B USB Network Adapter with ArkLinux?
When I tried doing what that text file told me to do, I got stuck where it told me to type: "make usb". It asked me where the directory for the Kernel was, and I didn't know where it was. I tried searching for it, but I had no luck.
Also, I'm having another problem, this time with my monitor. The only resolution that I can be in KDE is 640x480. However, my monitor can display all the way up to 1280x1024. It really bugs me to have the resolution so low like that. I tried editing the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, but I couldn't find the place from which to change. I found an entry, "Display_Size", but I tried to change that from "320 240" to "1280 1024" (I'm trying to get it to look accurate in relation to the actual file) but it didn't work.
Please, if you could help me, that would be great.
-- If you are unfamiliar with the ArkLinux distro, you may look at their website @ http://www.arklinux.org .
Some info on ArkLinux:
-KDE based, version 3.4
-Bash Konsole Shell
-Kernel 2.6.x
--If you need anymore info, let me know.
- 07-12-2005 #2
The kernel sources is what the distro is looking for, usually it can be found by using the following command:
Code:cd /lib/modules/`uname -r`
I'm not familiar with the ArkLinux distro, but is there a Control Center like place where you can go to in order to setup the monitor? I have had monitors not displaying at the correct resolutions when using manufacturer specific drivers, and the problem was solved once I told it to use generic monitor drivers, e.g. Generic CRT monitor 1280x1024 @ 75 hz.Life is complex, it has a real part and an imaginary part.

Thanks, I'll have to try that. But, it told me that I have to install gcc because of this:
Code:make: gcc: no such command
Oh, and I got the monitor to display higher resolutions, but I don't know how I did it. But I'm happy! That's one problem solved
- 07-12-2005 #4
Try running the gcc command as root to see if that helps. Also when installing gcc, try installing it as an rpm.
Life is complex, it has a real part and an imaginary part.
- 07-13-2005 #5
Here check this that wireless driver was added to the 2.6.x kernel
See this http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/topic-48999.html bottom of page
on the gfx issue you'll want your default resolution first in the line
Code:Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen 1" Device "NVIDIA GeForce" Monitor "My Monitor" DefaultDepth 24 Subsection "Display" Depth 24 Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" ViewPort 0 0 EndSubsection EndSection
default res is 1280x1024
and i have 4 usable resolutions
and on the gcc issue if it realy isnt installed go into yast and install the development packages that will be gcc and it's libraries

Well, I tried that and it (Konsole) gave me the same thing.
Code:-bash: gcc: no such command
I wish Linux was easier in the means of installing like stupid Windows is =P
Other than that Linux is awesome! But I need to get the internet working

Ah, I didn't realize that you posted before me when I posted that.
Thanks so much. I really want to get away from Windows and I really like Linux. It's fast, reliable, and has a great GUI.
Also, I should have known the question on new thread thing. Forgot about that.

Already into Week 4 of the Transform To Fit Workout Program! Hope its going great for you guys! As I mentioned last week, I've been dealing with a lower back injury that has prevented me from doing the workouts full force. I visited my chiropractor about 6 times and did massage therapy, and its finally feeling back to normal. But just as my back got better, I got hit with a 2 day flu. My 6 year old was sick as well. So I missed a couple days there. So the first few weeks haven't been ideal, but it happens! Definitely not beating myself up over it.
I wanted to post a progress pic a few times throughout the program. At Week 4, Week 8, Week 12.
So here's my Week 4 progress pic thus far.
There isn't much of a difference here, but then again, I wasn't able to work out to my full potential with the injury and sickness. The difference that I feel is that my tummy is a bit flatter. Since the first pic was after Christmas so I was a bit bloated still. As I'm not interested in losing weight at all, just getting a touch leaner.
By the next update I should have a more drastic difference, as long as no more injury or sickness hits. I also need to tighten up my eating a bit more, but as always, I'm never interested in doing anything drastic.
If this is your first time seeing the program, I recommend you pop over to Week 1 to read what its all about.
Any questions, please leave a comment at the bottom of this post, and I'll answer them. But please understand this is not a custom workout, and I won't be providing modifications.
If you're dealing with an injury, best to chat with your doctor or therapist about your workout limitations.
If you're short on time, or a beginner, I'd recommend doing each set 3 times instead of 4. You can also skip the cardio portion completely if you're short on time as you are getting a cardio blast in each set!
I'd love for you to check in to tell me and show me your progress! Leave comments below on the week that you're following, and connect with me on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram, tagging me @busybuthealthy and using the hashtag #T2FIT

Studying human fertility.
We very much welcome the National Children's Study, which promises to raise the study of factors affecting reproduction and development to a new level. An impressive and exciting range of new methodologies is being developed (Chapin and Buck 2004; National Children's Study 2004).However, we think it important to correct some of the inaccurate statements concerning the use of retrospective time to pregnancy (TTP) made by Tingen et al. (2004). We do not see prospective methods and the retrospective approach as alternatives; they are complementary, each having their strengths and weaknesses. Unfortunately, Tingen et al. presented a negative and distorted view of retrospective TTP studies, describing things that are "often" or "typically" done but that do not represent current best practice; then they used their description to denigrate all such studies. Although it is true that retrospective studies are subject to multiple potential "bias in recruitment, recall, and behavior or exposure trends" (Tingen et al. 2004), careful sampling and questionnaire design and use of appropriate methods of analysis can address most of these issues.
Retrospective studies are not necessarily pregnancy based. They can be conducted in random population-based samples and frequently are cross-sectional or birth cohort studies (Joffe 2000; Joffe and Li 1994; Karmaus et al. 1999; Sallmen et al. 1995; Schaumburg and Boldsen 1992; Schaumburg and Olsen 1989; Thonneau et al. 1999), thereby overcoming the problem that only women who eventually conceived are included. Even in pregnancy-based studies, if there are concerns about differential prenatal care (an issue in the United States but not in western Europe, for example), recruitment could be based on births rather than pregnancies, obviously with loss of nonbirth outcomes. If sampling is population based, it is feasible to ascertain periods of unprotected intercourse not leading to conception (generally stipulating a minimum duration such as 6 months); these attempts can be added to the pregnancy-related TTP values to generate the "time of unprotected intercourse" (Karmaus et al. 1999).
Tingen et al. (2004) presented simple issues of questionnaire design negatively, but these problems can be easily solved. For example, if data are collected in relation to the starting time instead of the conception time (Weinberg et al. 1994), behavior change does not lead to bias but only to nondifferential loss of information.
A central issue is planning bias, the question being how to exclude accidental (unplanned) pregnancies without bias occurring if the exposure variable is associated with the degree of "plannedness." Retrospective studies can readily investigate this by following the standard guidance to collect full information for all pregnancies, including all covariates, and carry out parallel analyses with "unplanned pregnancy rate" as outcome variable (Weinberg et al. 1994). Prospective studies are unable to do this because only planners are recruited.
Tingen et al. (2004) stated that in TTP studies, "women are asked to recount their contraceptive and sexual history." This is incorrect; in TTP studies, women are not asked for this detailed information because it would be invasive and inaccurate. Instead, women are simply asked how long it took to conceive, a question that is acceptable and that most can answer. The replies give an accurate representation of the true TTP distribution (Baird et al. 1991; Joffe et al. 1993, 1995; Zielhuis et al. 1992), even with recall of up to 20 years Coffe et al. 1995). Although digit preference (and other non-differential misclassification) can occur, the implication is that more respondents are required than would be the case with perfect information. Nevertheless, stable estimates of the TTP distribution can be obtained with approximately 200 values in each exposure group, or fewer in the case of ordered categories such as successive 5-year periods (Joffe 2000).
We agree that a major limitation of retrospective studies is that it is impossible to obtain detailed, timed information on exposures and key biologic events such as ovulation, and difficult to ascertain certain covariates such as frequency or timing of intercourse. This is the key strength of the prospective design. On the other hand, retrospective studies are representative because, as already noted, sampling from the general population is available and planning bias can be handled. The questions are easily administered and answered, and the response rate is high. Even response bias can be avoided by nesting the TTP questions within a more general population survey, thus decoupling survey nonresponse from differential fertility or other motivation that would convert low response rates to response bias (Joffe 2000). Selection bias remains a potential problem for some retrospective designs but can be handled by appropriate statistical analysis allowing for truncation effects (Scheike and Jensen 1997).
Not only are prospective studies time-consuming and costly, and therefore likely to be rarely used, but they have important methodologic drawbacks. For example, it is impossible to distinguish the approximately 3% of couples who are sterile from those who merely take a long time to conceive (> 10% typically take > 12 months), unless follow-up is extremely long.
More seriously, prospective studies are dominated by the lack of a sampling frame (except in occupational studies) and by a potent combination of planning bias and response bias. They can include only couples who deliberately plan and are willing to volunteer for onerous monitoring. This is acceptable for internal comparisons (e.g., studying day-specific conception rates, each subject being her own control) but raises serious problems with external validity. Tingen et al. (2004) referred to this only in their Table 1--"Participants might be less representative of target population"--but not in the text; in contrast, Buck et al. (2004) admitted that women who plan their pregnancies may be systematically different from those who do not, that this may adversely affect external validity to a degree which cannot be empirically evaluated, and that the findings may not be generalizable to all women.
The authors declare they have no competing financial interests.

The Reds' No. 11 prospect recorded nine strikeouts and gave up five hits over six innings for his first Double-A win as the Pensacola Blue Wahoos blanked the Birmingham Barons, 3-0.
Cingrani was on his game early, recording six of his first nine outs via strikeouts. He walked two while throwing 59 of 99 pitches for strikes in his second Southern League start.
"I was throwing the fastball in and out [of the zone] and I found my slider tonight," Cingrani said.
A third-round pick in last year's Draft, he credited Blue Wahoos pitching Tom Brown for helping him with his slider during a bullpen session earlier this week, saying the advice helped him "tremendously."
"Brown said one phrase to me and it made my slider start working how it's supposed to work," Cingrani said. "'Come across my face when I throw it.' It was crazy. I've never had command of my slider and today, I didn't throw it in the zone for a strike, but it had the action. It was a good two-strike pitch."
Cingrani heaped praise on his teammates for helping him notch his first win since being promoted from Class A Advanced Bakersfield.
"I'm pretty happy, everybody played well," the 22-year-old left-hander said. "[Ryan] LaMarre made a nice catch in the outfield and [shortstop] Didi [Gregorious] in the sixth made a nice play to save a run, it was pretty nice."
Overall, Cingrani is 6-1 with a 1.17 ERA in 12 starts across two levels. He's struck out 85 batters over 69 1/3 innings while limiting opponents to a .194 average. So it comes as no surprise when the Illinois native said he's feeling "pretty confident" right now.
"I always have confidence when I go out there," Cingrani said. "I think I'm better than the hitter every time I go out there. I just throw strikes and go after them."
Asked what he needs to work on to continue climbing the ladder in the Reds organization, he said, "Just my command of the slider and that's pretty much it. Just keep throwing my fastball the way I've been throwing it and I should be good."
Justin Freeman fanned four and allowed a hit over two innings before Drew Hayes tossed a hitless ninth for his first save.
Brodie Greene went 3-for-4 with a homer and two runs scored for the Blue Wahoos.

Wissota State Park to Osage
Wed 26 June 2014
We carried on thru Wisconsin but on the spur of a moment we decided to make a little detour north, to the Smoky Hills. Michelle found a State Forrest that sounded interesting. This whole area is covered with many Lakes large and small, but one hardly travels for a couple of miles without seeing water. The main village is called Detroit Lakes which lies on a very large lake. We passed thru there and later found the sign for our Forrest. It was a ...
Michigan -Wisconsin Wissota State Park
... up North to the point where South Michigan meets North Michigan. The two are connected via the Mackinac Bridge that goes over the Straits of Mackinac with Lake Michigan to the West and Lake Huron to the East. Until 1998 it was the World's longest suspension bridge, 950 feet longer than the Golden Gate Bridge. The suspended part is 2.7 km long and the total length is 9 km.
The Mackinaw Mill Creek camp site is on the southern side of ...
Pool Day!!
Dasher is dying to get at those squirrels! We had to lock her in to stop her from trying to chase them.
Most of the campers have gone home and we have the pool to ourselves! We are taking a pool day. No photos of this will be posted so that you don't have to go have your brains scrubbed or your eyes burned out of your head from having to see me in a bathing suit. ...
Amusement Park Central!
... from there, the go-karts, roller coasters, mini golf, etc... Now the entire town is a theme park. It's like living in Disneyland with camp grounds.
The dogs are in heaven because there are lots of squirrels. Dash REALLY wants to catch one!
Oh yea, did I tell you about the trains?? Uh huh, every few hours a train goes right next to our camp. It shakes the whole coach. The have all been over 125 cars long. Yay! Hopefully they will stop running at ...
Deeper Into the Northwoods
... was, in fact, located in Wausau. So we reversed path again and headed back to Wausau, found our park and got settled in.
The campground area was not officially open yet as they had multiple water line breaks due to their bad winter (sub-ground freezing down to 12'), but as long as we didn't need water, we were welcome to stay. So we did.
Tomorrow's another day.
