The brogue is back to the house. It belongs to Meddle Age Period and in its little square you'll find restaurants, bar and a little commercial centre.
A little staircase (few steps) kinks directly the house to historical centre.

Construction payrolls shrink; October spending edges up; most ballot measures win
November 7, 2008
Seasonally adjusted nonfarm payroll employment fell by 240,000 in October, and the unemployment rate rose from 6.1% to 6.5%, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Worse, 179,000 more jobs vanished in August and September than was estimated last month. In the past year, payroll employment has decreased by 1,078,000 (-0.8%). Construction accounted for nearly half of those losses-508,000 (6.7% of the October 2007 construction job total), including 49,000 in October. Construction workers had the highest unemployment rate (10.8%, not seasonally adjusted) of any industry in October, and the largest increase (from 6.1%) over 12 months. Average hourly earnings in construction in October rose to $22.14, up 5.1% from October 2007, vs. a 3.5% gain (to $18.21) for all private production and nonsupervisory workers. Employment in all construction segments fell to multi-year lows. One of the worst hit has been highway, street and bridge construction. The latest data for this segment is for September and is not seasonally adjusted, meaning comparisons are valid for the same month in different years but not across months. Employment in September 2008 totaled 371,000, the lowest September since 1998 and down 36,000 (9%) from the peak in September 2005. Many of these workers could be quickly re-employed if a stimulus bill is enacted that sends more highway funds to states.
Construction spending in October totaled $1.06 trillion at a seasonally adjusted annual rate, down 0.3% from September and 6.6% from October 2007, the Census Bureau reported on Monday. Residential construction sagged 1.3% and 27%; nonresidential construction edged up 0.1% and 8.0%. The largest gains were for manufacturing construction (including several massive refinery expansions and new auto, steel and cement plants), up 5.2% and 54%. Lodging (hotels and resorts) climbed 0.4% and 26%; power (power plants, wind and other renewable power, transmission lines), 1% and 26%; offices, 1.7% and 12%; education, 0.5% and 6.6%; and transportation facilities, 0.5% and 3.7%. Declines occurred in commercial (retail, warehouse and farm), -2.9% and -11%; highways and streets, -1.5% and 1.3%; health care, -0.6% and 4.4%.
Infrastructure spending fared well at the polls on Election Day. "There were 696 [bond referendums] totaling $67 billion before voters—the second-largest amount ever for a single election day," Bond Buyer reported on Wednesday. "As of…afternoon, about 82% of bond referendums for which results were available had been approved for about $54 billion of new debt….Voters in California narrowly approved a $9.95 billion bond issue for high-speed rail [and] okayed $980 million for projects at children's hospitals….In Los Angeles County, 67% of voters approved a half-cent sales tax that will raise $30 billion to $40 billion to fund light rail, subway and other transit projects over the next 30 years." Voters in several California and Texas districts approved multi-billion dollar school and community college bond issues, along with large bonds to rebuild major hospitals. "Voters in the three-county region centered in Seattle gave a solid victory to a half-cent sales tax proposal projected to fund $17billion in Sound Transit passenger train and bus projects." Voters approved sales tax increases for transit and commuter rail in counties in California, Hawaii, Kansas and New Mexico but rejected them in St. Louis and Kansas City.
The quarterly survey of 102 corporate economists by the National Association for Business Economics (www.nabe.com), released on Monday, showed that for the first time since 2001, more respondents reported declining demand than rising demand in the previous quarter for their firms' goods and services. More firms plan to reduce than raise spending on structures in the next 12 months, a reversal from the July survey.
The Federal Reserve's quarterly survey of senior loan officers at 55 domestic banks and 21 U.S. branches and agencies of foreign banks, released on Monday, found, "On balance, about 85% of domestic banks reported that they had tightened their lending standards on commercial real estate loans (CRE) over the past three months. About 65% of foreign banks, up considerably from about 35% in the July survey, also indicated that they had tightened their lending standards on CRE loans. On net, about 55% of domestic banks—up from 30% in the July survey—and 40% of foreign banks—down from roughly 45% in the July survey—reported weaker demand for such loans."
The credit market shutdown, portfolio losses for endowments and donors, and the deteriorating economy are hitting construction hard. Institutions that have announced construction projects to be put on hold or canceled include Brown, Boston, and Cornell Universities, Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Williams College. "Trinity Health has temporarily shelved plans to expand Saint Joseph Mercy Saline Hospital and build another hospital in Livingston County because of poor economic conditions in Michigan," Crain's Detroit Business reported on Wednesday. Data DIGest readers reported this week: "All of my clients are not-for-profit healthcare organizations. Over the last month I have seen many of our prospects postpone previously approved new project starts due to the unavailability of new public bond financing." "We have seen a decline in the numbers of K12 design projects on the drawing boards. Projects are being shelved for a year or more due to uncertainty in funding and housing starts." "We've had two owners for whom we have ongoing [private-sector work in southern California] cancel further construction."

Kim Dotcom's "Big Reveal" involves Hollywood?
The whole thing will just come to a point where they will "prove" John Key could conceivably have known about Kim Dotcom before he says he did.  As in, he had a clear opportunity to know.
Of course, having KDC mentioned and actually realising who it is, or how he fits in, before the whole story started to take off for real, is quite possible. Â Read more »

Art History News
Joining us in Fall 2014! The Department of Art History welcomes Professor Amy Ogata!
Amy F. Ogata's research explores the history of modern European and American architecture, design and material culture. Her most recent book is Designing the Creative Child: Playthings and
Places in Midcentury America (Minnesota, 2013). Historicizing the idea of childhood creativity, she shows how material goods such as toys, playrooms, playgrounds, books, schools, and even museums produced for the American baby boom participated actively in forming the notion of the creative child after World War II. A short book on the British toy and graphic designer Fredun Shapur will appear in late 2013, and a co-edited volume accompanying a traveling exhibition on Swedish Wooden Toys will be published in 2014. Her first book was on architecture and design in turn-of-the-century Belgium, Art Nouveau and the Social Vision of Modern Living: Belgian Artists in a European Context (Cambridge, 2001). Ogata is currently working on a study of metal and the metallic in Second Empire France. She has received grants from the Wyeth Foundation, the Canadian Centre for Architecture, the American Association of University Women, the Smithsonian Institution, the Spencer Foundation, the Belgian-American Foundation, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

if I were the leader of the Tea party, I wouldn't be celebrating…….. you're being called terrorists too! anything they just did to "alqaida', they can now do to you, especially seeing as how you think it is good to do this to suspected terrorists…………. ever heard the line :- if your mates told you to jump off the harbour bridge would you do it? Well, Bin Laden "may have' told a few idiots to go take a flight……….. but look at what really just happened!
You are celebrating killing someone that told his mates to jump off the harbour bridge.. the fact he may have given them money to kill themselves is not the issue, nor is the fact that those idiots killed other people….This is guilt by association and trial without jury, and thats not my cup of "tea".
I stand for freedom, and personal responsibility for individual actions as decscibed by God himself…… If I break the law, and say you told me to do it, and get you killed for being a boogeyman, would you celebrate then?
http://www.corbettreport.com/osama-bin-laden-pronounced-dead-for-the-ninth-time/ On January 18, 2002, Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf announced quite bluntly: "I think now, frankly, he is dead."
On July 17, 2002, the then-head of counterterrorism at the FBI, Dale Watson, told a conference of law enforcement officials that "I
Osama Bin Laden in December 2001 personally think he [Bin Laden] is probably not with us anymore," before carefully adding that "I have no evidence to support that."
In October 2002, Afghan President Hamid Karzai told CNN that "I would come to believe that [Bin Laden] probably is dead." me thinks its all a psyop to make obama seem tough upon the world stage,

Tacoma 'rogue taxidermist' makes bone, skin art
A Tacoma woman calls herself a "rogue taxidermist."
The Associated Press
A Tacoma woman calls herself a "rogue taxidermist."
The 41-year-old woman who goes by the name Acataphasia "Cat" Grey creates paintings and sculptures with animal skins, bones and skulls.
Grey told The News Tribune ( http://bit.ly/13GQPbr) friends often bring her their dead cats to be immortalized as art. She also gets skulls from trappers, buys skins online or picks up road kill.
Grey and her work are scheduled to appear Thursday on the reality TV show "Immortalized" on the AMC channel. It's like the "Iron Chef" show except with taxidermists.

I love the Mineralize line. I use this alone to just even out skin color/texture, or to set a foundation and give skin a healthy glow.
I tend to use some of the darker colors, or some of the MSFs as bronzer.
i used this powder to set my foundation for the first time today and didn't like it. it made me oilier and i just wanted to go home and wash off my make up. i'm back to shopping for the perfect setting powder.
This powder gives such a nice finish. It's matte but it still has a tiny bit of sheen. Just enough to give the skin nice dimension. Also this shade doesn't have the orange tones that most MAC face products have. I dont have any problems with my neck and face not matching up. Wish the packaging had a mirror like the Blot Powder but it's still great. I will still repurchase though. This seems to be MAC's most expensive setting powder though. I prefer this one though to the others because this adds a tiny bit of coverage. I use Face &Body Foundation and find that this combo gives just the right amount of coverage.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I normally don't care for MMU, but I like this powder very much. It's a very lightweight, light coverage product that I apply with my Jane Iredale flattop kabuki. I hate anything that's the slightest bit shiny on my oily skin but, as I get older, can't wear really matte products either without looking aged -- I think this product is a nice compromise. I usually wear it alone for light-makeup days. I've also used it over my BB Skin Foundation with great results. Oil control is okay -- Blot (pressed) is better. NC30-35. I usually get clogged pores from other MMU but have not had any issues with this product. Very good staying power/minimal fading as the day goes on.
I don't know if i like this powder and i dont know why ppl keep talking about how amazing it is ive tried powders that are cheaper and better but I got it about a week ago because i heard it was a very good powder. I also heard that this could make you break out but i decided to get it anyway and see for myself. In my opinion it doesn't give a very good coverage and you have to put a lot on and it makes me face feel cakey. Also since ive been using it ive been breaking out and im not sure if this is to blame so im going to start using it more frequently and if i keep breaking out it is definitely going back to MAC. Ill update in a few weeks.
UPDATE. I ended up taking this back to MAC and exchanged it for something else. It make my skin break out, even my mom told me what was up with my skin and i totally agreed. I only used it 4 times and it already caused breakouts . Its a horrible product and expensive, i dont know why ppl like it so much.
I use this for setting my foundation and it is amazingg. it gives me that smooth matte look without looking cakey. just make sure you blend well. and i have to say i'm very impressed. it didn't break me out like MAC pressed powders and the foundations. I put this on to go to school, and i have dance first period, and i sweat up ALOT in there. after dance i blot my face with a tissue and apply another thin layer of this and its amazingg. you dont' need to apply it after you blot, but for me i just feel like it. without applying is also good. still matte =]
I use MSFN as my everyday powder over CG tinted moisturizer. I needed another option aside from MAC's Studio Fix powder plus foundation because it was drying my t-zone and I needed something lighter. I migrated towards this product seeing that it's "mineralized" it does contain bismuth, but I'm fine with that. The coverage is light, and I like that it doesn't make you look cakey. I'm not down with the whole "don't brush on my face with your white sweater cos you'll get my powder/foundation all over your shoulder" look. Anyway, I apply with my Ecotools retractable kabuki and buff away. NC40 for reference.
I used be in love with MAC Studio Fix pressed powder until I met this stuff. The satin finish is fabulous, and it does not turn cakey or too oily. I use it to set my MAC Studio Fix Liquid foundation and concealers. I wish it had a mirror and sponge/puff inside, just for convenience when at school/work. Coverage is not as full as I would have liked, but I will just use more concealer to make up for that. For my NC30/C3 face, Medium Plus is a perfect match.
I like this. It's very average, but there's nothing wrong with it. I put a Yes under repurchase just because it's a good stable product, but I'll definitely be looking in the drugstore department for another basic foundation powder, because that's just what this is.

Why Online Brandjackers Plague the Travel Industry
The online hotel booking business is a ripe target for "brandjacking," but this type of commandeering is of a different nature than we have seen in previous studies. More than 580 million visits from highly-qualified travelers are siphoned away from the hotel brands' online bookings sites to those of channel and marketing partners – or competitors – who reach customers first through paid search advertising and other online marketing tactics.

Casey and Samantha Thomas, the leaders of the Creative Soul School of Music, couple their passion for music with a shared mission: providing a nurturing environment where young musicians can hone their innate skills and discover their confidence. ?We?re trying to get to those kids who are trying to figure out their identity, where they fit in, where they can find a home,? Casey says. To that end, the school tailors private lessons and classes to suit each student?s passion, be it songwriting, orchestral layering, or technical proficiency in headbanging. Year-round, the school dots the local sonic landscape with trimesters of student band classes for children and adults, as well as one-week and shorter summer rock camps that pair up learners of the same age and experience level. Welcoming all proficiencies, instructors tout an ability to nurture struggling learners, who ultimately build the confidence to perform live shows at venues around the region.
Sisters Eliana and Valeria both discovered Zumba during challenging times in their lives⎯Valeria while fighting obesity and Eliana while helping her late husband through cancer treatments. These past experiences inform the sisters' approaches to the dance classes they lead. Valeria creates a comfortable and nonjudgmental environment for students of all fitness levels, and Eliana wants to offer her students the same freedom and escape she found during one-hour Zumba workouts. Both ladies are certified instructors and teach several subspecies of Zumba dance, including Zumbatomic for children and Zumba Gold for seniors, beginners, and prenatal students. Zumba People also tries to foster a sense of community among its students, hosting costumed dance parties for Halloween and orchestrating the occasional flash mob. Classes are held six days a week, and schedules for the Hurst and Southlake locations vary.
Mike French and Todd Hoffman, inspired by the burger joints and Mexicali burritos of their native Southern California, opened OC Burgers: a sit-down eatery where diners can dive into voluminous selections of both culinary offerings. Half-pound Black Angus burgers come topped with scoops of guacamole or teriyaki pineapple, and 14-inch tortillas envelop carnitas or carne asada. The Fort Worth Star-Telegram's Patricia Rodriguez called the bacon cheeseburger "very good indeed … with charred edges and a juicy interior." She also marveled at the size of the carne asada burrito, which she described as having, "strips of tender flank steak … marinated in orange juice and cilantro" with "more complex flavors than other carne asadas." On the restaurant's large TV, a looping video of the sunrise prompts roosters to continually announce the all-day breakfast menu, which includes breakfast burritos, omelets, and plates of pancakes or french toast.
Though Papa G's Sports Bar & Grill churns out a menu of hearty eats—from decadent cheese-stuffed burgers to spicy buffalo wings—the real draw of the joint is its fun, laid-back atmosphere. A spacious patio lined with shaded tables welcomes guests to sip on one of the daily drink specials, shoot the breeze with friends, or catch a live show. Inside, a tall, lofted ceiling overlooks multiple pool tables, dartboards, and a dance floor that, during weekly events, becomes packed with swaying customers and antsy former boy-band members looking to strut their stuff one last time.
Metroplex Photo Booth's open-air photo stations allow even large groups of revelers to stuff themselves into memorable strips. The self-service booths instruct their inhabitants via an LCD monitor, showing the camera's footage in real time so parties can form attractive tableaus, whether in black and white or color. An attendant remains with the booth at all times to help technologically confused guests, dispense unlimited photo strips, and teach smiling to anyone who missed that day in school. The memory catchers offer a number of additional amenities to personalize the experience including magnetic frames, scrapbooks, and props.
At Papa Murphy's Pizza, chefs decorate dough with ladles full of marinara sauce before casting across scoops of cheese, salami, veggies, and bacon. Customers bake the pies to perfection in their own ovens or by startling a welder. The pizza-making process takes place near the registers, which lets guests cheer on the chefs as they stuff Chicago-style pies with four types of meat. Once back at home, youngsters can create their own pizzas with a kit including enough red sauce, mozzarella cheese, and crust to serve one child or an entire town of imaginary friends.

Lecithin is also known as alpha-phosphatidylcholines, lecithinum ex soya, sojalecithin, or soy lecithin.
Lecithin does not refer to a single chemical but rather to a group of closely related chemicals. Lecithins in turn belong to a larger group of compounds called phospholipids, which are important components of the brain, blood, nervous tissue, and other tissues. The body uses lecithin in the transporting of fats and in the metabolic process. Lecithins consist of a base structure containing choline and a phosphate group called the L-alpha-glycerophosphorylcholine skeleton. A long fatty-acid chain is attached to this skeleton. The length and position of the chain determines the type of lecithin.
People are probably most familiar with lecithin as the oily film on their frying pan when they use a nonstick cooking spray.
Lecithin is available in capsules, liquid, and granules. There is no recommended intake amount.
Foods containing lecithin include egg yolks, soybeans, wheat germ, peanuts, and liver.
Signs of lecithin deficiency are not obvious. Whatever signs and symptoms may be present are thought to be related to choline deficiency.
Choline deficiency in animals may lead to abnormal liver function and kidney damage. Choline-associated liver dysfunction has led to liver cancer in laboratory animals, but a similar link has not been demonstrated in humans.
Lecithin in normal doses may cause stomachache, diarrhea, or loose stools. Information is not yet available concerning excessive lecithin intake.
There are no known contraindications to lecithin.
Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should consult a physician before taking any dietary supplements.
There are no known significant food or drug interactions.

I would like to have a response from anyone who is using the Subject product and their experience in doing so.
I recently installed this software. Unfortunately nearly all the products within the Design Suite have "crashed" when I experimented using them. I placed a simple array design in the AutoCAD Mechanical portion of the Design Suite and could not close the file. I kept getting a message that there was a command in progress and was unable to dismiss any such command using the "escape" key. The file would not close because every attempt to do so was met with a message that there was a "command in progress". I finally had to bail out using the Task Manager in Windows XP.
I also submitted a couple of my error messages. A couple went to Autodesk and one went to Microsoft.
My computer is somewhat outdated, as I built it in 2003. It has a new (old stock) Intel D875PBZ m/b with a (new old stock) 3.0 GHZ processor, a PNY NVIDIA Quadro FX 4000 graphics card with 250 Mb of video RAM and a full complement of system ram, which tops out at about 3.5 GB. That's as much as will be addressed by XP. I know this is probably a major part of the problem, but I thought I could at least familiarize myself with some of the different parts of the Design Suite until such time as I build the new workstation. Unfortunately every one of the Design Suite categories either crashes or runs so slowly that even just attempting familiarization is difficult to impossible.
If anyone has had this experience and overcome it with new hardware please provide the hardware you are using so I can get an idea of what to get. I will need to use hardware that can handle a large assembly, so this experience makes me wonder if any hardware outside of the governments most powerful computers can handle the project I would like to complete, even though I was getting pretty good performance from what I'd previously completed until the software upgrade to Autodesk Product Design Suite Premium.
Maybe my characterization of this software release is inaccurate, but it certainly seems to fall into the category of "bloatware" because my previous (Inventor 2011) software version handled my files without crashing or error messages. The problem remains that I won't know whether there are advantages to this release without getting new hardware so anyone having a positive experience using this release with recently released hardware, and dealing with large file sizes, will be much appreciated.

How do you get going again after pregnancy?
lol at grand piss down. The expression not fact that it's raining.
heehee brilliant
oh God, I dread J being let loose in an Apple store - I'd never be able to drag him out again. Went in one briefly when in Aberdeen the other week for my friend to buy something, was full of kids playing on all the IT ... although did get me thinking it's a perfect creche while mummies are shopping!!
Yes, this grandad lived in the bottom half of a rented house all his life (my granny died of breast cancer when I was one) and worked for years ... whereas on the other side of the family my grandpa got late onset diabetes, had heart problems and died in his late 60s with that granny following about 8 years later from stomach cancer ... I'm hoping i got the genes of my dads side of the family!!
Last pilates class taught for the week. Late evening snack - permanently starving at the moment ... and that's on 'just' 45-50ish mpw, no idea how on earth you run all those miles Lotte and MM, I am shattered - although don't feel shattered when running, just come this point in the evening when trying to finish all my house jobs off etc. Could have had a power nap easily while sitting waiting with S while J had his guitar lesson tonight!!
Anyway, 5 easy miles for me today - easy as in slow, not as in the bloomin great hill I ran up!!
Haha Camlo. Hope the grand piss down stops soon!
I have been trying to get on here for days but never get a chance. After lunch I thought I had it sussed and settled down in the sun with a cuppa for a quick catch up but then a friend appeared for a cuppa. What a scorcher we have had today. Yesterday was fab too although I was working most of it. School sports day tomorrow though so bound to change for that! We had a long weekend this last one, kids off fri and Monday and there is just constantly so much on. Plus with it being so nice it is impossible to get them in so bed time is getting later and later. Just got the youngest 4 in bed for 9pm tonight but the oldest two are still out sailing, and it is still bright sunshine.
Anyhoo so as you saw I did Edinburgh marathon on Sunday. I flew down on Sat and back on Sun night after the race. Hubby and Sophie were away at the North Districts in Inverness the same weekend so the 5 remaining kids were split between my sis and my friend and all got on brilliantly. The twins were delighted to have had their first ever sleepover! Sophie got on well on the athletics trip and was delighted to PB in her 800m in 2:47 for 5th place in the U14s which I think is good for a titchy 12 year old.
My race... well I had never been that confident about it as it was only 8 weeks since the 100k and I did the 15 mile trail race in the middle of that. So despite training being rather compromised I was happy enough with 3.06.03. The optimist in me had hoped for a small PB just as a stepping stone closer to the sub 3 but well, it was too hot and too be honest I don't really think my head was in the right place. The whole way around I was thinking I really CBA to do this!! So all in all I'm glad I can still run that time. My legs were fine, in fact they felt the best they have ever done in a marathon, I just struggled to hold the pace. Not sure where to go from here. Torn between a proper autumn marathon attempt at Loch Ness or the 24 hour race in Sept. I am only interested in doing another marathon for a better time and think that needs a proper 16+ week of specific marathon training but not sure I want to limit myself to that as I really enjoy the ultra stuff. Ho hum decisions decisions. Doesn't help that I have been offered a free place in Loch Ness but they need to know asap.
Fed up tonight though. After I dropped Emily at gymnastics I was reversing out of the parking place and a woman came around the corner and I reversed (very slowly) into her. She was totally in a blind spot and I saw nothing until I hit her. Did no damage to my car and only a small scratch on hers. Anyway she has phoned tonight to say I can either pay £150 to cover the cost of having the scratch fixed or we can go through the insurance companies which will probably cost a whole lot more. FFS. Money is so tight at the moment and the thought of losing £150 this month on nothing makes me feel sick.
Better go. Kids are home. Soph has a school dance tomorrow and we are having an ongoing disagreement about whether she needs to shave her legs. Do they have to grow up so quick. Already had to send hubby to the shops for a padded bra for her today, poor guy felt like folk might think he was a perv so phoned me from the s hop and made me speak to the sales assistant to make sure he got the right thing!!
Sorry for the me me me post.
you never do me me me posts Lotte! What a miserable cow about the car, some people really need to get real!!! I am chuckling away at hubby going to buy a padded bra though, am not sure my hubby could cope with that! He can't even face buying condoms!!!
So, yes, that is an impressive race - especially as you had the CBAs!!! Like you say, proves you CAN do it. Difficult choice for you though ... I guess the Glenmore 24 will be there next year as it's a growing race so perhaps this year bite the bullet with the marathon esp as it's a free entry too . I guess it depends how your legs feel - I am not even going to ask what kind of recovery strategy you are currently using
We haven't had scorching weather but has been warm and almost sunny and actually as I speak there is an awesome sunset out there but have no idea where camera is at the moment. I excpect you find the same Lotte - UV is pretty high even if not that warm, I caught sun a bit on Monday while running and it wasnt' any where near as hot as down South.
I love the Grand Piss Down description ... may have to coin that!
I think I am more excited about the yurt holiday than the kids Camlo!
Boo to the scratch on the car Lotte - nothing worse than money spent on nothing especially when its tight!! Well done on the marathon - the thought of getting that time whilst thinking I Cant be arsed is amazing!
We had another mountain adventure last night - managed to get up to the snow! Loads up there as well. Matilda was fascinated but did not want to touch or stand on it at all!! Funny thing! She loves the mountain though - hubby is not so secretly thrilled! Hopefully it bodes well for the future! ANyway it was a lovely anniversary, still managed the yum dinner and bubbles later as well and hubby surprised me with a massage voucher and flowers (he was making a big effort as has been pretty slack on those sorts of things lately - I'm not complaining!!).
Just managed a trip to the shops, hair cut and toy library trip and still at my desk by 10.30 - I seem to have agreed to join the toy library committee. I know one woman on it and feel that I should - since my job involves working with committees to be better at strategic planning, using volunteers better etc I should really get stuck in - I see a lifetime of sports club and school committees ahead of me - luckily I enjoy it mostly! Bonus is I will be saving $100 on membership fees as well and will be able to reserve all the best toys!
I have the terrible CBA's for work this morning now I'm actually here - fancy baking instead - not good!
wow well done Lotte
et camlo - loving the french. used to have a penpal when i was in my teens and we wrote to each other in a mix of french and german. was very funny. have you been to musee d'orsay? is my fave
have just made a gp appt for this morning. 3 weeks in and i'm still ill. am sure they will say just virus but am not able to travel for work as i'm so wiped out and they are going to get peed off with me now
meant to ask - has anyone got a kindle fire HD (or non HD - not sure what difference the HD bit makes)? cc- is that what you have? i'm wondering about a kindle for J for his birthday as i literally cannot keep up with his reading, even using the library. he is getting through 2 - 3 books a day at times (and these are proper books too - Beast Quest etc, not tiddly books). I saw the kindle fires and that you can get apps on those too, which he would love (not sure that is a good idea though - too much gaming!). however, i also saw some reviews which said the kindle fires aren't as good for reading on as they are too bright, and i don't want his eyes messed up by overuse of it!
Kindle fire hd is quite bright but I have set background to sepia which is better. I love it! For me it is a mega cheap I pad As i can do everything I need on it.
ah ok EF - sounds ideal then. that was what i was thinking - a cheap version of an iPad. but just not sure i want to go there with J yet, as he will probably use it for gaming and not for reading. although if i don't put any apps on it for now... or only a couple that he doesn't play obsessively...
on another matter, i have just spoken to the kids and T is taking them camping, pony trekking, caving etc up in the brecons. sounds fab. however, he is letting J sleep in a tent on his own. and i'm not sure about that. he's 6. am i being precious? he said the tent will be next to his but even so. tell me i'm just being precious? when they go camping with beavers, i guess they don't have an adult with them in each tent? but equally they aren't on a public campsite either are they?
what happens if he needs a wee in the night (he did when we camped together). he won't wear anything in bed and i had to persuade him to put a dressing gown on before he streaked across the campsite at 5am for a wee...
GP thinks i have glandular fever. ehhh? blood tests next week to confirm. could explain why i have had 2 sets of infections only a couple of months apart tho...
I can well believe you've got glandular fever CM, you seem to have been fighting an awful lot of nasty infections recently.
Not sure about the tent thing really ... ours sleep with us (our main tent has two compartments) but last weekend we were in smaller tent all squashed in together. I'd put S and J in a tent together on their own. I have a friend though who's six-year-old sleeps on her own in a tent no problem.
Does he not just wee round the back of the tent? Agree he should be wearing something though if out of the tent!!!!
no - he won't wee round the back of the tent, as he doesn't want people to see his willy. however, he WILL streak across the campsite with his willy swinging around in the breeze to get to the toilets?!
i sent T a text this afternoon (he refused to discuss on phone this morning) telling him i was fretting about him sleeping on his own overnight in a tent. he texted back (arse-ily) telling me to stop fretting; he is not going to do anything risky. and J won't be sleeping on his own. it's just for playing in. that is DEFINITELY not what he said this morning (he got J to tell me he would be sleeping in a tent by himself when i called) so he obviously did reconsider after i expressed reservations. he said i take more risks by allowing J to go into the wood by himself - J has NEVER been in the wood by himself. i always go with him, but on one occasion he went into the wood with a friend of his while i was in the garden, and i could hear and still see them running around in there as they didn't go far. FFS.
anyway - main thing is he won't be sleeping on his own overnight in a public campsite, which is what i was worrying about. when we camped at the weekend (in 3 man tent) he came off his mat and ended up along the bottom of the tent parallel to the entrance way. i woke up with my feet bent up under my knees as he was taking up all the space along the bottom (we had been sleeping side-by-side). if he did that in a tent on his own, confused in the middle of the night, he'd probably get distressed trying to fathom out how to get back onto his mat again. as it was he woke up whimpering for the toilet at 5am... still, panic over...
lol to swinging around in the breeze
Yes rofl to streaker J
have just texted my joiner and signed off as Cx!!!!! I've decided just to ignore it!
And I've just won two more girls skirts on eBay! that's 8 now!! ffs! Tho did get Laura Ashley one for 99p and considering it went down to £15 in the sale that's not bad!
am chuckling at CMs streaker and EF's skirt collection for Lou!! along with the x
Agree that the guy is bleedin useless but then we all know that anyway!! At least he apparently saw sense in the end.
CM - similarities between our two Js again! Mine is also an avid reader, we now have the problem that his ability to read is advanced but the books that apparently match his reading level in the school system they use (Renaissance accelerated reading scheme) are not subject matter he want to read!!! When J was your Js age he adored (and still does) Jeremy Strong books (read quickly but chuckles away), and Astrosaurs/Astro Academy. He's also currently ploughing through various Horrible Science books - which seem to take him a bit longer and I've got him reading the Wolf Brother series by Michelle Paver which is also slowing him down.
That's annoying re the swimming JT, good to hear he's sorted now though and pond dipping sounds fun.
Absolutely stunning day here today - really really summery. Of course, like Lotte said yesterday, can't get kids into bed cos of the daylight. A very old friend of mine is up with her family holidaying in Findhorn. I haven't seen her for eight years so they all came for tea tonight after we'd got back from ballet. Kids were still out on trampoline in garden at 8.45 - lost total track of time, oh boy S will be horrible tomorrw.
Fun run for me this morning. 15 miles on the fells down the road. Mixture of landrover tracks and pathless boggy moorland, and LOTS of hills so think I'll know about that tomorrow. Even had to use my map a bit. Bizarre to think I ran in same area last week in waterproofs and winter gloves etc and today I caught the sun!
J off to first Cub camp tmrw night and is sooooo excited.

Are CIOs sufficiently involved in their companies' compliance efforts?
When it comes to Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) compliance, at least, many
compliance and security experts contend CIOs are actually
insufficiently involved, and often supplanted by chief financial
officers (CFOs). That doesn't bode well for companies' other
compliance efforts.
According to Michael Rasmussen, the vice president for risk and
compliance research at Forrester Research, "I do agree that the CIOs
haven't stepped up to bat, and they could have more influence and
direction in Sarbanes-Oxley." That's especially true since companies
increasingly implement automated IT controls - ideally, overseen by
CIOs - to ensure compliance.
Did CIOs simply miss the boat on SOX? "I can't disagree, just based on
the number of individuals I've talked to in publicly traded companies,
as well as from my experience at the SEC," says Chrisan Herrod of
Scalable Software, executive consultant for compliance solutions, and
the former chief security officer of the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC).
What accounts for this state of affairs? Simply put, "The CFO stepped
up and said, 'I'm the chief officer who's designated to go to jail
here, so I'll be taking charge of the SOX effort, thank you very
much,'" notes Charles Le Grand, the CEO and founder of CHL Global
Legislators, of course, initially crafted SOX to combat perceived
business problems and a handful of high-profile financial reporting
irregularities. "It was because there were bad actors in companies
that manipulated the processes; it wasn't thought about so much as an
IT problem," recalls Herrod. "When it was finally coupled with IT -
because all your financial systems run on applications which are part
of your networked environment - people also realized it was also about
technology, and the CIOs were brought in, but at the end of the game."
CIOs' Involvement Increasing
With SOX compliance efforts maturing, are more CIOs getting involved?
"Yes, slowly," notes Rasmussen.
Their involvement parallels the increasing use of automated controls
to help ensure compliance. "If people tried to put a quick solution in
place, they did it by using manual controls - in other words throwing
bodies at it. In the first year of SOX, that's certainly how people
got through it - by having people, for example, reading all the
security logs. But that's not sustainable," notes Murray Mazer,
co-founder and vice president of corporate development for Lumigent
Technologies Inc.
By contrast, automated controls help ensure compliance in a more
sustainable, demonstrable, and economical manner, and thus more
companies are adopting them. "I'm hearing and seeing people become
absolutely more aware within organizations that IT controls -
specifically IT security controls - are going to be extremely
important, and that these controls have to be put in place and
constantly tested and monitored. That definitely brings CIOs into the
equation," says Herrod. As a result, "I think you're going to see a
drastic improvement in collaboration in the C-levels."
For example, she says, she knows of one mid-size public company
located in Florida that discovered it had a SOX compliance problem
last year. "It learned a lot of painful lessons, and was trying to
hire somebody specifically dedicated to IT compliance, under the
auspices of the chief operating officer, with a dotted line to the
Report Right
Such reporting-structure distinctions are essential; be wary of who
gets to helm any given compliance effort. For example, "those that are
promoting the CIO to be the director of SOX, I'm against that, because
it is about financial integrity and accounting, and financial
statements," says Rasmussen.
In fact, in many organizations, the auditors report to the CFO,
typically because their auditors have always helped assess financial
integrity, which is under the CFO=C2=92s purview. Yet that reporting
structure doesn't work so well when monitoring for today's regulatory
violations, says John Lazarine, the global IT audit director of
Raytheon. "You'll see a lot of audit departments where the head of
auditing reports to the CFO, but that's not a good practice to have,
because then the CFO controls the budget, promotions, and could have a
lot of control over what is looked at, and where research is
conducted," he says. "I can understand logically why you'd do that,
but from an independence standpoint, it's not right."
To whom should auditors report? At Raytheon, for example, "We report
directly to the chairman, with a dual reporting relationship to the
chairman of the auditing committee," he says. "It's important that we
are independent. Remember, an internal auditor exposed the whole Enron
Another impetus to keep auditors independent: you don't know where
they might identify a problem, and ultimately if the problem has to do
with business processes or technology controls. For example, even when
companies employ automated IT controls, "the technology has to fit
within a credible business process," notes Mazer. "If the process is
flawed, technology can=C2=92t solve the problem."
Auditors and IT
Furthermore, when a problem does involve an IT control, IT staff may
have difficulty resolving underlying business problems. That's where
independent auditors can play an important role. For example, when
Lazarine discovers a business process that needs improving, he may
present his findings to the relevant Raytheon executive, though he's
taken the same approach throughout almost 20 years of being an
auditor. "To be honest, I've taken similar conversations to all levels
of the C-suite people - CIOs, CEOs, the chairman," he says.
Often, he says, auditors will find something and propose a solution,
and "when you talk to the IT people, they say you're exactly right,
that's what we have to do, but they don't necessarily have the
channels in place to bring these things up."

institution = {Evaluation Review},
year = {2004}
This paper (which is mainly expository) sets up graphical models for causation, having a bit less than the usual complement of hypothetical counterfactuals. Assuming the invariance of error distributions may be essential for causal inference, but the errors themselves need not be invariant. Graphs can be interpreted using conditional distributions, so that we can better address connections between the mathematical framework and causality in the world. The identification problem is posed in terms of conditionals. As will be seen, causal relationships cannot be inferred from a data set by running regressions unless there is substantial prior knowledge about the mechanisms that generated the data. There are few successful applications of graphical models, mainly because few causal pathways can be excluded on a priori grounds. The invariance conditions themselves remain to be assessed.

We're about to enter a period of the yearly gaming cycle where the regular flow of releases is going to slow down. For some, this is a bummer, since it means there aren't any (or few) new games. For me, it's one of the most exciting times of the year, since I can hack at my backlog.
What are you guys looking forward to playing with the extra time?
For me, it's Eternal Darkness and System Shock 2. Waiting until Halloween might make more sense when it comes to timing, but there will be other horror games (where you at, Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs?) coming throughout the year, and I must strike while the iron is hot. Both have have such cult followings, and have obviously influenced those that came after. It's one thing to know something is influential, it's another to experience it yourself.
I can't have the summer just be about horror, though, and so I leave the possibilities elsewhere to you. Valkyria Chronicles is an interesting strategy game that many recommended once I'd put Fire Emblem: Awakening to bed, and I intend to actually play (and finish) Dark Souls before the sequel comes out.
Hey, You Should Play This
NothingElse is coming with an unfortunate caveat: I haven't finished it. The first 15 minutes have hooked me, but enough is going on at work that I haven't been able to see where it all goes. The reason NothingElse is commands this space, however, is because NothingElse comes from imscared designer Ivan Zanotti. If anyone's earned the benefit of the doubt when it comes to the unsettling, Zanotti has.
And You Should Read These, Too
When I wrote about Amnesia: The Dark Descent, one of the motivations was coming to grips with why I continue to enjoy horror. When my father passed, I wondered whether my exploration of death in a safe space would mean the genre no longer meant anything to me--that hasn't been the case. Jenn Frank discusses her fascination with horror and other media in this piece, set behind the backdrop of the dialogue around Anita Sarkeesian and her videos exploring tropes about women in games.
"I think what I'm getting at is, especially with the horror genre, it's less important what a movie says and more important that you, the viewer, understand why you're enjoying it. I believe in judicious self-awareness; a director like Nicolas Winding Refn knows exactly why he makes the directorial choices he makes, and he works those kinks right out onscreen. Or, if you aren't enjoying a piece of work—if ultraviolence isn't your thing, or if you're suffering a visceral reaction—it's every bit as important that you identify what about the piece is making you uncomfortable."
Colette Bennett has some recommendations for Sarkeesian's critics, and how to separate the argument from the author. I'm including two pieces that touch on Sarkessian's series because the second one premiered this week and is featured below, and I know how the comments sections on those articles tend to go. You are allowed to disagree with Sarkessian, even aggressively so, but do so with a sense of class. Articulate your response, explain yourself. Stooping to name calling, derogatory remarks, and childish attitudes only undermines your point.
"Let's just say, for a moment, that instead of watching Anita's video series, you're reading the same ideas in a book (and there are dozens on the subject of feminism, and a handful on women's role in games as well). Are you still angry about them? You may be. If so, you can focus your hatred on the author of that book, or any of the other books. But notice how you feel when you're angry: insulated, seething, closed. If that feels bad, consider that there are other options, and other ways to react."

New from ISMRM 2008 in Toronto, Canada
Title: 7 Tesla Sodium MRI of Patients with Multiple Sclerosis: A Preliminary Study PDF
Introduction: Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a multi-focal, inflammatory, demyelinating disease with pathological involvement of neurons and axons1. Pathological and imaging studies have shown that neuro-axonal loss occurs progressively from the onset of the disease, and that it correlates with disability. These findings have prompted the search for mechanisms of neurodegeneration and for surrogate markers to monitor in vivo degeneration and neuroprotection. There is increasing evidence that the intra-axonal accumulation of sodium ions may contribute to degeneration2,3. In addition, partial blockade of sodium channels protects axons from degeneration in experimental models of MS, and it is currently under nvestigation in clinical trials4. Sodium MR Imaging (23Na MRI) provides an indicator of cellular and metabolic integrity and ion homeostasis and has been applied to the study of patients with brain tumors and stroke5. The low sensitivity and spatial resolution of 23Na MRI make higher field strengths desirable to improve this imaging modality. The aim of this study was to optimize 23Na MRI at 7T and investigate its feasibility in the study of patients with MS.
Title: Assessment of Renal Function using MR Renography without Aortic Input Information PDF
Introduction: Dynamic contrast-enhanced MR renography (MRR) has been shown to be a valuable approach for the non-invasive assessment of renal function. Most current tracer-kinetic models to analyze MRR data require an input concentration versus time curve [1,2], which is usually measured from an aortic region of interest (ROI). However, aortic concentration versus time curve obtained from MR images suffers from several measurement errors, such as partial volume problem, flow effects, intravoxel dephasing, T2* effects, and others. Such errors in aortic curve may be propagated into the estimated renal parameters, such as glomerular filtration rate (GFR). In this study, we explored a new modeling approach which obviates input function measurements and estimates GFR based only on renal cortex and medulla enhancement curves.
Title: Electrodynamic constraints on homogeneity and RF power deposition in multiple coil excitations PDF
Introduction: Correction of B1 inhomogeneities and management of SAR are among the most difficult challenges faced by in-vivo ultra high field MR applications. The use of multiple independently driven transmit elements, which enables fine control over the distribution of electromagnetic fields, has been explored as a possible solution and various approaches have been developed. In parallel transmission techniques [1,2] the composite B1 field can be modulated in space and time by adjusting the independent RF waveforms transmitted by each coil, in order to generate a target excitation profile while minimizing SAR [2]. There are inherent limitations to this dual optimization process, which were described at a recent conference [3] for a uniform spherical sample. In this work we propose a different electrodynamic formulation for the calculation of ultimate intrinsic SAR, which enables derivation of the corresponding optimal current patterns on the surface of the sphere. The trade-off between transmit homogeneity and SAR reduction was investigated using this formulation, and the behavior of ideal current patterns was studied.
Title: A Novel Non-Contrast MR Angiography Technique Using Triggered Non-Selective Refocused SPACE for Improved Spatial Resolution PDF
Introduction: : A non-contrast-enhanced MRA technique using gated 3D Turbo Spin Echo (TSE) has been reported for various clinical applications [1] [2], whereby systolic images are subtracted from diastolic images to provide high resolution MRA without exogenous contrast agents. Half-Fourier single-shot TSE results in a relatively long readout duration which causes vessel blurring due to T2 filtration effects and susceptibility to motion artifacts and arrhythmias. To reduce the long acquisition window for this cardiac imaging, one can use parallel imaging to reduce the acquired lines [3] and higher receiver bandwidth to reduce echo spacing time (ETS) [4],another potential solution to this limitation include multi-shot approach with the trade-off of increased scan time is less clinically acceptable especially as the technique is subtraction based and long scan times result in higher potential for motion between the corresponding systolic and diastolic scans.
As an approach to alleviating the spatial resolution limitations and to improve the reliability of this technique in fast heart rates we have investigated the use of a variable flip angle method for non contrast MRA using triggered 3D SPACE (Sampling Perfection with Application optimized Contrasts by using different flip angle Evolutions), which uses selective RF excitation, non selective RF refocusing pulses and variable flip angles for contrast manipulation [5]. To determine times of peak and minimal flow within the cardiac cycle, triggered (pulse or ECG) phase contrast flow measurements were performed. SPACE helps achieve lower SAR and shorter ETS of 2 ms, resulting in total acquisition windows of around 100ms, a slice turbo factor in 3D direction can be used to speed up the acquisition, because two or more partitions can be acquired in one cardiac cycle. Figure 1 shows the intrinsic contrasts mechanisms between the two techniques, TSE based approach uses C-A, SPACE based approach use B-A. We performed a comparison between the SPACE and the TSE based approaches in terms of spatial resolution and reduced blurring and small vessel conspicuity.
Title: An MRI System with 128 Seamlessly Integrated Receive Channels for Multi-Nuclear Operation PDF
Introduction: Many groups are investigating the feasibility and advantages of array coils with an increasing number of coil elements beyond the industry standard of 16 to 32 channel systems. Several prototypes have been described with 64 channels [1], 96 channels [2], and with 128 channels [3, 4]. This paper describes the second 128 receive channel MR system installed at a customer site, based on a commercial 3T MAGNETOM Tim Trio, which allows the simultaneous acquisition and online reconstruction of images from 128 receivers. Unlike the system described in [3], this system offers multi-nuclear capability. Amongst many other options, this enables exploration of highly accelerated parallel imaging of hyperpolarized media. This combination of hyperpolarization with a very high number of receive elements represents an attractive proposition for a number of reasons: Firstly hyperpolarized media provide an initial boost of SNR based on the higher polarization compared to thermal polarization of protons. Secondly, the SNR in conventional thermally polarized parallel imaging is inevitably reduced by increasing acceleration factors, whereas hyperpolarized imaging works with a fixed pool of polarization that does not recover, and thus the flip angle for each excitation can be proportionally increased in the presence of acceleration, so that the SNR loss traditionally associated with parallel imaging may be mitigated or even eliminated [5,6]. Furthermore, applications can be realized that critically depend on short scan intervals. As an example, we show 128 channel lung images with hyperpolarized helium (3He).

Rooigrond crash saddens Cosatu
Comment on this storyJohannesburg - Cosatu in North West expressed sadness on Tuesday at the deaths of five correctional services officers and a policeman in an accident near Rooigrond prison.
"We would like to convey a message of condolence to their families and to our union Popcru which have lost members," Congress of SA Trade Unions provincial secretary Solly Phetoe said.
A car carrying five correctional services officials collided head-on with a police car on the R501, near Mahikeng, on Monday.
The five and the officer driving the police car were killed.
Phetoe said the road had claimed many lives.
"Cosatu has several times questioned the state of the roads in the province, but our call has fallen on deaf ears."
The trade union federation called on the transport department to speed up road maintenance.
Justice and Correctional Services Minister Michael Masutha earlier described the accident as shocking.
"It has tragically cut short the lives of our correctional officials and a policeman, leaving their families grappling with this immense loss," he said.
"We are left poorer as the criminal justice system as a whole, because these officials together had given decades of invaluable experience in delivering correctional and security services to our people."

Press Release
The zombie apocalypse takes Las Vegas
Published on Fri, Feb 22, 2013 (12:35 a.m.)
THE ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE TAKES LAS VEGASFilming the Apocalypse One Day at a Time
The zombie apocalypse hits the streets of Las Vegas this Sunday. Zombies will be coming from all over trying to hunt down humans for food. We have verified that this will take place on Sunday, February 24, 2013 at the cross streets of Desert Inn and Valley View.
Although this is not a real apocalypse and the zombies are just extras for a film set. It should be an interesting experience to create the zombie apocalypse right here in Las Vegas. There will be approximately 30 zombies chasing 30 humans in two locations near the above mentioned cross streets. All of the zombies and humans were found via an ad placed on Craigslist.org. We expect an interesting and fun reaction from pedestrians in the local area who may just happen to pass by and see the mayhem take place.
The project is for an independent series called Vitamin Z. The series is about a few survivors of the apocalypse who get addicted to zombie meat and struggle to maintain their humanity. There will be eight episodes filmed for the first season, which will start airing on YouTube.com and HouseofDONProductions.com at the end of March 2013.
For information on Vitamin Z and House of DON Productions you can visit the website at www.HouseofDONProductions.com.
For further information contact Douglas Farra at (702) 429-1998 or via email at [email protected]
House of DON Productions is DBA for the company The House of D.O.N., Inc. The corporation is a multimedia company that provides entertainment services and creates music, films and events. The main focus of the company is to provide alternate forms of entertainment while staying connected to the community.
