Park Geun-hye's "Correct View of History" With Japan
The August 15 anniversary of the end of World War II—when the Korean peninsula gained independence from Japanese colonial rule—is not just a time of reflection on the legacy and costs of that war; it is also a perennially sensitive diplomatic moment in Northeast Asia. The festering political disconnect between Park Geun-hye and Shinzo Abe, allies of the United States who have been thus far unable to meet each other bilaterally heightens the importance of such a moment.

NORMAN, Okla. (AP) - Freshman defensive end D.J. Ward, one of the top prospects in Oklahoma's recruiting class and ranked the top in-state player by recruiting services, practiced with the Sooners for the first time Tuesday after being declared eligible by the NCAA.
``He couldn't do much but he did fundamental work and learning the defense. Hopefully we can get him schooled up enough to get him a few snaps on Saturday'' in the spring game, Stoops said after practice.
The 6-foot-2, 245-pound Ward didn't play his senior year of high school after transferring from Lawton High School to Oklahoma City's Douglass High School and then to Southmoore prior to the season.
He was ruled ineligible by the state high schools association after the transfers, then graduated early so he could enroll at Oklahoma.
He is one of four newcomers who were already taking classes - along with punter Jed Barnett, receiver Dannon Cavil and safety Ahmad Thomas - so they could go through spring practice. However, Ward didn't receive clearance right away and missed the first 11 practices of the spring.
``I'm not pointing fingers that it should have happened sooner. Anymore with eligibility and with classes being taken sometimes in different ways, they have to make sure it's correct,'' Stoops said. ``It is now, so we'll move forward.''
With Ward's multiple transfers plus an early graduation, Stoops said he understood that the NCAA needed more time to verify Ward's academic standing.
``I think all of that contributes to it. It makes it harder to get all of the information and to make sure it's accurate information,'' he said. ``I'm sure it was one of the more different cases they've had.''
Despite being unable to work out with the team and sitting out all of last season, Stoops said Ward stayed in great physical shape. There could still be an adjustment period for Ward, who was selected to play in the U.S. Army All-American game.
``I imagine there will be some. Although it comes to him pretty natural. But yeah, that's fair to say there will be some,'' Stoops said. ``It will take him a little while to get back into that kind of shape and get a feel for it.''

-"With my crossbow
I shot the Albatross.
from Samuel Taylor Coleridge – The Rime Of The Ancient Mariner on Genius
The Albatross, previously hailed as a good omen by the sailors, is killed by the mariner. Interestingly, we never get a reason as to why he committed this deed, which seems to add to its maliciousness and establishes an even stronger causal relationship between the deed and the horrors the sailors experience later.
Part I ends with the Mariner killing the albatross with his crossbow.
This is the true beginning of the Mariner's story. The following events are the consequences of him having shot the Albatross.

Story of an Elder Couple, Both Disabled
A Story from the Wisconsin Partnership Program
Synopsis of Work: The Medicare/Medicaid Integration Program (MMIP) (1997 to 2006) was a state demonstration program that tested the operation and design of delivery systems that integrate long-term and acute care services under combined Medicare and Medicaid capitation payments for elderly patients.
Story Told: For Richard and Bev, married 57 years, the task of raising hundreds of foster children over a lifetime was easy compared to dealing with the health problems they faced as they grew older.
Richard has emphysema, and needs supplemental oxygen to breath. Bev's arthritis, which she's had since she was seven, has made it hard for her to get around. And she, too, has emphysema.
In fact, the couple had used up all of their savings paying their medical bills. Bev stopped taking the medicines she needs because she couldn't afford them anymore.
Then a representative at the county's Department of Aging suggested that Richard and Bev contact Community Health Partnership. It's one of four community-based organizations participating in the Wisconsin Partnership Program, which helps elders with health problems remain in their home.
They enrolled. "It was the best move we ever made," said Richard.
Without the Community Health Partnership, Bev says, she and Richard might have to live in a nursing home. Bev knows that her arthritis will get worse, but she doesn't worry about it as much as she used to.
"I'm going to be able to do less and less, but I know the help will be there," she says. "We are secure in our home. Community Health Partnership has become a part of our family."

The apartments in the Azure building pull off a rare trick as they are actually bigger, nicer and better positioned in reality than they look online. In fact we found them to be some of the best value accommodation in the whole of the regenerated Taksim/Cihangir neighbourhood, which is also one of the most popular parts of the trendy Beyo?lu district in 'new' Istanbul. First off the apartment building itself in a very quiet and safe street, and yet is also just a few minutes walk from the hustle and bustle of Taksim Square and a wealth of cafes, restaurants, shops and parks. You are also just a ten minute stroll from Tophane tram station, which carries you swiftly across the Galata Bridge towards the Eminönü and Sultanahmet districts (where the famous tourist sights are). It is also from Tophane you can quickly reach the Kabatas ferry port (great for day trips by boat) or you can carry on (via foot or bus) to see the magnificent Dolmabahçe Palace, the nearby busy suburb and port of Be?ikta? and the famous Ortaköy Mosque at the foot of the Bosphorous Bridge. Closer to home there are many supermarkets and grocery stores nearby (including two Carrefours, two Dias, a BIM and a Namli) plus many independent and specialist shops. You can also discover why the area has a reputation for being one of the most bohemian and hip in Istanbul; with lots of cool coffee bars, art galleries, boutiques and antique shops right on your doorstep. But when not out discovering the joys of shopping on the famous Istiklal boulevard, sampling the many and varied kebabs and/or cakes on offer on S?raselviler Street, checking out the latest exhibition at nearby Istanbul Modern, or jumping on a tram, tube train or ferry to see The Blue Mosque, The Grand Bazaar, one of the Princes' Islands or to even visit the Asian shore – you can kick back in a very comfortable, spacious, and well-equipped apartment that offers a big plasma TV, decent and reliable broadband wi-fi (with multiple routers serving the individual flats, a useful idea) and very efficient heating/aircon. Also, if you're in to self-catering (as we are) you'll also enjoy having four touch sensitive ceramic hobs, a state-of-the-art combination oven (with conventional fan and/or microwave options) and a full-sized family fridge freezer. The bathroom is also of a high standard with a generous walk-in shower and lots of on-demand hot water - plus it is here that the washing machine and tumble dryer are discreetly tucked away. The
Beyoglu and Cihangir in particular is Istanbul's most trendy and multicultural neighbourhood. European professionals, local TV stars and a intellectuals live and work in the here. Taxim Square, Istiklal Street, Galata Tower and the Bosporus are all less than 10min walking distance. While the area offers plenty of restaurants and entertainment options, the property is located in a very quite street.
Public transportations are also at a close reach from the apartment. The tram, a convenient, cheap and reliable way to get to historical sites, is at a short walking distance from the flat. The metro and buses are also within walking distance.
To make your stay even more enjoyable and convenient, we offer to organise a variety of popular and bespoke services, i.e. a nostalgic Bosphorus boat trip, special guided tours through the city, a multi-lingual nanny service etc. For relaxation you might want to complement your activities with a massage or a yoga and meditation session, all in the comfort of your CAST accommodation.

Summer is not only a season for going to the beach, slurping down popsicles and getting a righteous tan, it's also the season for music festivals.
There are big events, including the Governor's Ball and Warped Tour, but Queens will also host several music festivals of its own.
MoMA PS1's Warm Up 2014 kicked off on June 28 and is expected to be one of the most popular festivals in the borough, with hundreds of people turning up each week.
Now in its 17th year, Warm Up continues its tradition of introducing audiences to experimental live music, sound and DJs from all over the world across a range of genres.
Experimental music may sound like a terrifying abstract experience to a layman, but that is not the case.
Big acts from the past, including Tears for Fears and even The Beatles, were considered experimental at some point in their career.
In essence, experimental music can be of any genre but incorporates unusual sounds, stylings and ideas.
It doesn't have to be as abstract as John Cage's compositions, however, it can be a dancy electronic anthem that uses sounds in a strange way.
This year's acts include Auntie Flo from London, Robert Hood from Detroit, Rrose from New York and Cashmere Cat from Norway.
Warm Up is always held in MoMA PS1's courtyard and features an outdoor installation. This year's piece, "Hy-Fi," was the winning design of the museum's 15th annual Young Architects Program.
The piece was conceived by David Benjamin and designed by a group called The Living and is a circular tower of organic and reflective bricks that uses biological technologies combined with computation and engineering.
The biodegradable material was created through a new method of biodesign and is made with a combination of discarded cornstalks and living root-like structures from mushrooms.
The matter is put into a mold for a few days where it hardens into a sturdy yet lightweight solid.
"Hy-Fi" looks almost like a large anthill and will be accessible throughout the festival and during regular museum hours.
Warm Up will also feature rotating stage installations by New York designers including Confettisystem, Chen Chen and Kai Williams, Fort Makers, Nightwood and The Principals.
MoMA PS1's resident restaurant M. Wells Dinette will be open for cocktails and will serve grab-and-go summer fare in the courtyard during Warm Up.
In addition, Artbook @ MoMA PS1 is partnering with the festival to host a special weekend pop-up shop in the museum's Print Shop store, located at 22-01 Jackson Avenue.
The sale will feature design objects by the Warm Up stage designers and music by festival performers.
To accommodate the large crowds expected at Warm Up, the MoMA PS1 galleries will close at 6 p.m.

Help with an engine
Hello, new user here.
I've had this motor for a while now, and I'm trying to drop it into a 360 GLT. Now my problem is I don't know exactly which model of volvo it's out of... All I know is it's 00-01 (apparently) series 1 of multiple models. It's a b5234T3. Also I require information on how the VVIS on this works because the n/a have an external actuator whereas this has that black fitting at the end of the manifold (which I presume it's for) so does it run off vacuum or boost pressure? Here's some pictures of the motor: Cheers. |

Here are five benefits to the global classroom!
1. Expertise
Let's face it, we all can't know everything. In these days of tightening budgets, field trips may not be an option. Why not let an expert share his/her knowledge with the class. A perfect solution is to bring an expert to your classroom via Google Hangouts or Skype. Utilize a Google Community, such as Connected Classroom, to find academic learning experiences for your students. Whether you participate in a Google Hangout with other students from around the world, explore a museum by a virtual field trip, or bring in an expert to your students, you will see direct benefits from the experts. You and your students will be learning with people around the world. Here is a link to Connected Classrooms so you can learn more and join.
2. Multicultural Awareness
The second best thing to actually traveling to a new country is to connect with that country via a video conference. Having a class discussion with two classrooms in different countries increases student perspective and allows all students to gain new insight. It is one thing to read about culture or watch a video and a completely different experience to interview people from another country, sometimes talking in another language. In addition, students gain a global perspective, understand time zones, can identify cities and countries around the world, and enjoy a first hand learning experience. Connected teachers often take a few moments to drop a pin on a map to all the places the classroom connects with. This map becomes a great talking point and an excellent way to keep track of all the connections made throughout the school year.
3. Authentic Audience
What is the value of an audience beyond the classroom teacher? Motivation! I have witnessed students blossom into incredible readers and writers with an authentic audience waiting to read and comment on their work. Globalizing your classroom with blogging is powerful. Suddenly, not only does writing matter, but word choice and grammar matters too. Our students have enjoyed being partnered with sister blogging classrooms. With blogging partners, classrooms takes turns in the blogging/ commenting process. One day your classroom comments, next you write a blog post! It is incredibly validating for writers to receive meaningful comments from around the world. An easy way to start blogging with students it to use http://www.kidblog.org . Amplify your student work and join with other blogging classrooms using the hashtag #comments4kids on Twitter.
4.Cooperative Learning and Collaboration
Global classrooms foster cooperative learning experiences for students. One such global classroom idea is Mystery Skype / Hangout. Students participate in a class challenge to determine the location of the other classroom. Mystery Skype is global geography game. By asking a series of yes/no questions, students narrow the location of the mystery classroom. The first classroom to guess correctly wins! The students gain confidence in their mapping, geography, and questioning skills as they partake in more and more of these activities. To get learn more, register and connect, check out Mystery Skype at https://education.skype.com/mysteryskype . Follow #mysteryskype on twitter too.
5. Curious and Magical Classroom Environments
The ARCS model of technology integration says lessons that are novel, surprising and out of the ordinary stimulate a sense of wonder and maintain interest. The global classroom provides daily opportunities that raise curiosity and create magical learning moments. One such magical moment occurred when author / illustrator Jena Ball joined our elementary classrooms and showed students how to illustrate puppies. The children were thrilled to share their illustrations! Another magical moment was when two high school English classes connected to discuss a novel. The students faces said it all. As their faces appeared on the screen, it was as if superman himself showed up! They were curious about one another, eager to share, and open to learning new ideas from a classroom over 1500 miles away. It is nice to have global learning activities on the calendar so students can look forward to the next time they travel outside the classroom walls.
Globalizing the classroom gives your students access to the world's expertise, an increase in multicultural awareness, an authentic audience, cooperative learning opportunities, and a magical learning environment.
Challenge yourself to participate in one global learning project this year. Let's celebrate global classroom success stories. Share your global classroom experiences as comments to this post.

New York City: Waxing
Anor Spa
Charos Placencia
113 Pacific St., Brooklyn
Technique: Placencia spreads on hard wax in long swaths, removing each with a speedy flick of the wrist.
Distraction tactics: Nothing, besides the fact that she was fast. We barely had time to register what was happening before it was all over.
Bottom Line: There's no such thing as a painless wax—and this one was no exception. But the entire process took only ten minutes, start to finish.
Avalon Salon & Day Spa
Irina Hermann
112 Christopher St.
We usually drag our feet all the way to our wax appointments, but Hermann thought we were actually moving too fast. After a quick assessment of the area, she decided our hair needed to grow in more before she attempted to remove it, because "the only thing the wax will pull on now is your skin," she explained. We took her word for it and returned one week later. Hermann smoothed on a warm, soft wax and swiftly completed both sides. We left with tidy results that were worth the wait.
14 E. 60th St., Ste. 200
This spot excels at permanent hair-removal solutions, but we know plenty of editors who swear by the waxes here, so we decided to give it a try. We didn't get off to a great start when our aesthetician showed up 15 minutes late for our appointment—and unprepared. Worse, though, she was inconsiderate. She stayed in the room while we stripped, then went to fetch us a brochure on laser hair removal, leaving the door open and exposing us to hallway traffic. The service itself also tested our patience. Our aesthetician relieved us of every unwanted hair but also showered us with unsolicited advice, suggesting we switch to lasering (yes, we get it). By the end, our bikini line was smooth and tidy, but the hard sell and exorbitant price tag made us feel like a sap.
Natalia Higginbotham
2305 Broadway
Our nerves were still frayed—make that fried—after our last waxing experience scalded our most delicate areas. To help ease us back into it, Higginbotham told us what to expect every step of the way. After a dusting of powder, she removed our most stubborn hairs with a thick, hard wax and dipped into a gentler soft formula for our more sensitive spots. Each rip was quick and mild, and she painlessly tweezed away strays. We left with a full Brazilian—and zero trauma.
474 W. Broadway
While they say the third time is the charm, for our very first Brazilian wax, we were hoping for a little beginner's luck. Bunya's reception area was airy, but the treatment room was cramped and had a decidedly equatorial climate. As sweat pooled on our brow, the (ungloved!) aesthetician first trimmed our hair with disturbingly large scissors. Then she ripped off the wax, in unusually wide—and exceptionally painful—sections. We were left bruised and swollen for three days, and swore we'd never go south of the border again.
Capelli D'Oro 5th Ave Salon
Theresa Naperkowski
123 Fifth Ave.
"So, you haven't had a wax in a while," Naperkowski said matter-of-factly as we lay down on the table. We muttered something between an excuse and an apology ("No, sorry, crazy schedule") and steeled ourself for the worst. But what Naperkowski lacks in subtlety she makes up for in speed. Using a natural honey wax, the former J Sisters pro zipped through the service, waxing so thoroughly that there wasn't a single stray or a need for tweezers. Such attention to detail did involve some pain—there's no way around it—but before we knew it, she was sprinkling powder over our impeccable bikini line. We left with minimal redness and promised to return again soon.
Maya Shakmurova
55 W. 8th St.
Monique Romatowska
150 Mercer St.
With its sparse treatment rooms and cramped changing area, there's nothing fancy about this serviceable downtown spa. But Romatowska is something of a diamond in the rough. She applied generous amounts of thick, blue hard wax and efficiently ripped away piece after piece. When she noticed us tense up, she paused and instructed us to breathe deeply, which actually did help us relax. Next, she dipped into a gentle soft formula for our more sensitive spots. We were so pleased with the smooth results and Romatowska's sweet demeanor that we booked a second appointment for the following month
Yasmin Ibrahim
Bikini wax, $31 and up
150 Mercer St.
Some of the pickiest clients around (ahem, beauty editors) rely on Ibrahim. Her hand is especially swift: She whisks hair away without painfully tugging on skin and helps ease tension with breathing techniques. Even better, her handiwork keeps regrowth at bay for weeks, which is approximately how long it takes to score an appointment during swimsuit season.
Kimara Ahnert
Lidia Tivichi
1113 Madison Ave.
Tivichi has spent 23 years in the waxing biz and has earned an unrivaled three nods in Allure's Best of Directory. Despite all of the accolades, in a sheer moment of foolishness, we strayed. Tivichi forgave our indiscretion and got to work, explaining that an inverted triangle would help balance our pear-shaped body. She also swore to us that her stripless wax hardly stings—and was she ever right. In five painless minutes, we were silky smooth, and Tivichi had earned her fourth stellar review.

One of the best trucker hats that I have ever had. The quality is hand downs amazing. The only negative thing I have to say is that my adjustable plastic thing in the back broke after like 2 days (there's like a fissure running horizontally in middle of it), but it still wearable. Oh yeah..for some reason this hat makes my ears stick out like dumbo for some reason lol..probably because the sides are wider than most other trucker hats.

Pandora CFO talks about iTunes Radio, new markets
With Apple's iTunes Radio being a latecomer to the world of streaming internet radio, it's not surprising that the executives of streaming leader Pandora would not be happy with the new competitor. CNET's Joan Solsman interviewed the CFO of Pandora, Mike Herring, and found that he feels that Pandora is "a great service that does this better than anybody else," and that the latecomers like Apple are "large, well-funded companies that have agendas outside a really awesome music experience."
Not surprisingly, Herring said that Pandora sees Apple's iTunes Radio as a "credible threat" to their business. In the first five days of iTunes Radio, Apple reported that more than 11 million unique listeners had tuned in to their favorite streaming channel. Pandora, with years of experience under its belt, had almost 73 million active users last month. Still, the company feels that they offer the top experience to listeners, although Pandora has been criticized by artists who feel that they're getting a raw deal in terms of royalty payments (Apple is paying a higher rate).
Herring talked a bit about international expansion for Pandora -- the company is now trying out its model in Australia and New Zealand as an experiment for future expansion elsewhere. Apple has direct deals with the record labels that will make international expansion of iTunes Radio somewhat easier to accomplish, while Pandora lacks those types of deals. However, Herring pointed to another competitor -- Spotify -- as a company with direct deals that is not having much financial success with international expansion.
Solsman's interview is a fascinating peek behind the curtain at the internet streaming radio business.

Book Review
Any Old Eleven
Jim Young
Cape Weed Press
4.5 stars
By Stuart Wark
20 Mar 2011
In recent years there have been numerous publications of books detailing the successes and, far more commonly, the extreme failures of lower grade cricket teams. Rain Men and its sequel
Zimmer Men
by Marcus Berkmann, Gideon Haigh\'s
The Vincibles
, Harry Thompson\'s
When Penguins Stopped Play
, and
Fatty Batter
by Michael Simkins are all examples of this trend towards humorous recounting of appalling cricket by its less skilled practitioners. However, for me personally the best of all these type of books was a less well known one called
Any Old Eleven
by Jim Young.
Jim Young played for a team called Naughten\'s Old Boys in the 1970s and 80s. The teams name was derived, as is commonplace in Australia, from the pub that the majority of players frequented. The Naughten\'s Old Boys, or Nobs, played in the Northern Combined Churches cricket competition in Melbourne. As Young points out, the grade they officially participated in D-1, as the players considered it too humiliating to admit it was actually E grade. The fact that they were a pub team competing in a Churches competition sets the scene well for the escapades and events that follow. There is little relationship between good Christian ethics, the antics of the team and their perpetual struggle to get a full contingent of players onto the ground. However, their opposing Church teams dont seem to provide a much better example either.
Young covers a large variety of the staple elements of less serious cricket; self-umpiring, struggling to get numbers, the volunteers who somehow manage to organise everything at the last minute, the ring-ins who play under assumed names and so on. He is a fine writer, and manages to draw the reader into the story exceptionally well. Young was an English teacher, and his writing style is both refined and easygoing. I have friends that have no interest in cricket whatsoever, but they still read this book with great enjoyment. It is a genuinely funny book in many parts. Thankfully, unlike some similar efforts, this book does not fall into the trap of forcing the humour too much. Young manages to let it happen naturally, but also succeeds in reminding many of us of the fun we had in the lower grades.
It is interesting that the forward to this book is provided by one of the best current cricket writers, Gideon Haigh. Sadly,
Any Old Eleven
has not been a massive best-seller, in spite of the fact that it is exceptionally well written and very entertaining. It was not published by any of the major book companies, which no doubt contributed to its relatively poor sales and is a real shame. Perhaps my biggest compliment to Young is that I rate
Any Old Eleven
higher than Haighs own effort in this genre,
The Vincibles
. This is not to denigrate
The Vincibles
at all, but merely to highlight what an excellent book
Any Old Eleven
Any Old Eleven
is essential reading for all fans of cricket, and comes highly recommended for anyone who enjoys a well written and humorous book.

Happy New Year to all our readers. We hope you enjoyed the festive break. 2015 is likely to be a busy year for HR professionals and employment lawyers: shared parental leave and pay becomes available on 5 April and a range of employment issues will be debated in the run up to the general election.
In May there were a lot of interesting developments in employment law. We've already alerted you to one of these: the British Gas case concerning commission and holiday pay. There are lots of discrimination cases covered in this alert, as well as a helpful case where the EAT found the dismissal of an employee, who tested positive for cannabis, was fair and it was not necessary for her employer to carry out any further investigation.
In-scope authorities must comply with new minimum standards for products and services which are purchased, or buildings which are purchased or rented, on or after 5 June 2014. A new Procurement Policy Note (Action Note 07/14) requires compliance with set energy efficiency standards when purchasing products and services, and purchasing or renting buildings to ensure government compliance with the Energy Efficiency Directive 2012/27/EU. The PPN issued 3 June comes only just in time to meet the implementation date required by the Directive of 5 June 2014.
The PPN notes that the Directive requires the government to encourage other public bodies to follow the Central Government example but goes no further in terms of requiring steps to be taken.
For an aggrieved unsuccessful bidder, bringing a procurement challenge requires fast action in circumstances where the bidder may not be able to point to each and every breach of the Public Contracts Regulations 2006, and is often acting with little more than a feeling that something was not quite right with the process.
The Supreme Court has ruled that a solicitor who was a member of a limited liability partnership was also a "worker" for the purposes of protection against detriment and dismissal under the Employment Rights Act 1996.
This month we've had a couple of helpful judgments concerning whistleblowing. Both look at the topic of whether an employee had been subjected to a detriment because they had blown the whistle. Both of the cases highlight that employment tribunals can and should make distinctions between alleged protected disclosures themselves and the steps taken by the employer to deal with the disclosures and/or to manage the employee who has made them.
Welcome to the May edition of the International Employment Law newsletter.
For this edition, we adopt a different format from previous issues. Over recent months, we have worked with our global partner law firms on numerous multi-jurisdictional projects, and many of those firms have contributed articles to our recent newsletters. Drawing on our experience in this field and the input from our partner firms, we bring together some of the key issues for employers to consider when contemplating changing terms and conditions of employees in the EMEA region. This is a hot topic for many international employers, particularly where post-transactional harmonisation is required. We hope our guide to some of the issues, and our top practical tips, will provide ample food for thought.
On the immigration side, Jacob Sand of our partner firm Gorrissen Federspiel provides a helpful and concise guide to business immigration requirements in Denmark.
Voluntary ex-ante transparency (VEAT) notices can offer a big reduction in the timing of risk exposure in procurements, however a recent Advocate General's opinion on their use of to avoid the remedy of ineffectiveness has clarified the circumstances in which they will and will not have their intended effect.
We are pleased to introduce our second TMT Info Law Adviser Newsletter. This is a monthly review of information law updates and industry related news specific to the Telecoms, Media and Technology sector which we hope will be a valuable resource for your organisation.
This has been produced for you by our specialist TMT Information Law Team who understand the increasingly challenging and rapidly evolving environment you operate in and recognise the broad spectrum of legal and governance issues you face.
Should you have anything in particular which you would like us to include in future editions or would like further information, please contact a member of our team. In the meantime, keep a look out for our next issue in April!
Case law keeps coming thick and fast and this month has been no exception. One of the many interesting cases in this alert concerns covert recordings made by an employee of the private deliberations at her grievance and disciplinary hearings. The EAT decided that the evidence was admissible.
A number of legislative changes were made to employment law on 6 April 2014. One of these, ACAS early conciliation (EC), may turn out be nothing more than an administrative hurdle for prospective claimants, but where ACAS do get involved in negotiations a late change to the legislation means that prospective claimants will have to fill in a separate EC form in respect of each potential respondent. This means that if individuals are named as potential respondents in, for example, potential discrimination claims these individual employees will be called by ACAS about whether the claim can be settled. This late change makes it all the more important that all organisations put in place a structure for dealing with early conciliation and let their employees know what to do if they are called by ACAS. All the April changes are outlined below.
Welcome to DAC Beachcroft's Budget 2014 Alert.
Our analysis as to how today's budget affects the business community is below. We think the three changes which will make the most amount of splash are the helpful relaxation and extension of the ISA rules, the temporary doubling of the annual investment allowance and what according to George Osborne is "the most far-reaching reform to the taxation of pensions since the regime was introduced in 1921".
In December last year, the government issued a consultation on zero hours employment contracts. The consultation followed months of political debate concerning the extent of their use and possible abuse by employers.
Welcome to our Inaugural Newsletter! We are pleased to introduce our inaugural TMT Info Law Adviser Newsletter. This is a monthly review of information law updates and industry related news specific to the Telecoms, Media and Technology sector which we hope will be a valuable resource for your organisation.
Last week an early day motion sponsored by Ed Miliband was tabled in Parliament, calling for the annulment of the Collective Redundancies and Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) (Amendment) Regulations 2014. The early day motion was tabled in Parliament the day before the Labour party's special conference to discuss its membership and its relationship with the unions.
The motion has been signed by 17 Members of Parliament. Very few early day motions are actually debated however - they tend to be a way of drawing attention to an event or cause. Additionally, since the Labour Party does not hold a majority in the House of Commons, the motion is unlikely to pass.
This month we have wide ranging cases to report on from illegal working to post TUPE harmonisation. One particularly interesting case concerns whether an employer could rely on its wording in a contract to dismiss summarily for theft, which was gross misconduct for unfair dismissal purposes. The EAT found they could not and the employee was wrongfully dismissed because the "theft" had not been deliberate. On the subject of contractual wording we've also had a case from the EAT where, because a contract was not sufficiently clear on what happened to accrued flexi-time on termination of employment, an employee ended up not being paid for over 1000 hours of work. We also set out some of the legislative changes happening on 6 April in order that you can plan ahead.
might be grey and dull outside but it's been lively in employment law this month. We've already alerted you to the fact that the Woolworths collective redundancy case, which looks at what constitutes an establishment for the purposes of collective consultation, has been referred to the ECJ. On the issue of restructuring, the new Collective Redundancies and TUPE Regulations largely came into force on Friday. While not as far reaching as we first thought there are some significant changes which we highlight below. Cases on protecting an employers business are coming thick and fast at the moment. We highlight one case below in which the High Court upheld the post termination restrictive covenants despite the fact that some of the information they were trying to protect was available on social media sites.
The High Court ruled on 16 January 2014 that three individuals resident in England may bring a claim against Google Inc in the English courts for misuse of their private information and breach of the Data Protection Act 1998 ("DPA") arising from Google's use of the Double Click cookie to target marketing to web users. In deciding whether their claim could be heard in the English courts, the High Court's judgment provides interesting reading for privacy professionals across the UK in its discussion on whether there was an arguable case to be heard.

Easy to book, and easy to pick up and drop off (the cars are a minute walk outside the airport). I received a free upgrade, and thoroughly enjoyed driving the car. A small concern was that I was informed that the car had no marks. However, when I inspected the car there were several noticeable marks. The attendant quickly updated the document showing the marks identified. There was no issue with this when returning the vehicle… Read Full Review

Very happy with the service, I would rent a car again from Airport Rentals. Only thing i would pick is the company we rented the car off, when I called to finalise the booking, I was asked did I need a $40 toll pass, i said "no i will only be going through the toll twice" At that point he should have told me I needed to buy a $10 pass online, which i would have done, but instead when I dropped the car off I mentioned the toll and was told i should've done it myself and i will now get charged… Read Full Review

There are few "bad" car rentals nowadays, but to get a no nonsense, outstanding value deal with no problems or attempted small scams is a total pleasure. We were booked for a company called "Routes Canada", and although the office was (understandably) off the airport and not frilly, the rental was just above half the price of the next cheapest, a solid car with 6,000 km and no problems at all, no nit picking, imagined damages or other causes for concern.

Hello out there fellow gardeners, Today I went to H.E.B and FOUND a strawberry papaya a baby papaya actually some one called this fruit passionfruit to me it looks like a pear shaped papaya its red flesh fruit I am saving the seeds to try and sprout and see if they take off for me any advise? suggestion? I also found Maradol papaya got one too, those seeds I know I can just put in a paper towel place the towel in a ziploc bag and they will germinate.The paper towel get moistened first of course. I found a chirimoya kind of small but at 8.00 dollars is just kind of too pricey for my pocket. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Strawberry papaya and passion fruit are completely different fruits. Both are tropical plants and will not take to cold too well. I'm in SoCal and grew the strawberry papayas from seeds I saved from fruit purchased at Ralph's. Most of them succumbed to the cold winter we had this year and too much rain. I'm not sure if they would produce for you in a container. I have lots of seeds to share if yours don't germinate. Pineapples are fun too. These were also from fruit purchased at Ralph's. Sandra |

sk290 is correct, papaya and passiflora are two completely different plants. Most papayas are either male or female, some are hermaphrodites. Only female and hermaphroditic plants will produce fruit so make sure you grow enough trees to better your chances of getting trees that will fruit. They grow fast and many varieties will mature within a year. The majority of passion vines need cross pollination. Both do well in containers in a greenhouse over the winter. |

HI SKY290 Thank you for your kind offer I might just take you up on that I will wait and see if they germinate for me, I started them like before damp paper towel baggie method so now I am just waiting to see if they sprout, I also got some maradol papaya seeds the same way. my plan is to germinate as many as possible and then grow some in the ground and some in containers for next winter I can bring them indoors and see what they do. I have read somewhere that once you have papaya growing you can make some kind of cut in the trunk and then they will produce fruit, so I must go looking for this article and see what else I need to refresh my memory about.

If another couple jumped off a bridge, would you do it too?
A few years ago, I was designated driver during a long night of excessive drinking. My friend, we'll call her Monica, was in the passenger's seat and her boyfriend, uh, Joe, was in the back. Joe said something that pissed Monica off and a screaming match ensued, complete with swipes from front-to-back-seat and vice-versa. It was loud, violent and whiskey-soaked and it escalated to the point where Joe threatened to jump out, even opening the car door while we were going about 40 on a highway entrance ramp. This rare, too-intimate look into their relationship was something I never want to see again. Keep reading »

Sacred harp is a type of music performed by the simplest and possibly the most beautiful of musical instruments: the human voice.
It's a historic form of community singing, explains Gayla Bradberry, sung in an austere, a cappella style, with its roots in America's Colonial period.
"It was very common up until about the time of the Civil War and then it went away except for some pockets of singers in the rural South," said Bradberry, who has initiated a monthly sacred harp gathering in Billings.
Sacred Harp Singing meets the third Sunday of every month at St. Andrew Presbyterian Church. It is open to everybody, whether they belong to the church or are more focused on singing than faith.
When Bradberry was a little girl, her church did something similar to the type of shape-note singing involved in sacred harp. She was introduced to it again watching the 2003 Civil War movie "Cold Mountain," where it was on display.
"This is a perfect hobby for me," Bradberry said. "I was a history major, so all this history stuff is fascinating. Then, I'm a musician."
Bradberry retired two years ago after playing violin in the Billings Symphony for 27 years. While symphonic performances require practice and polish, sacred harp has a much rougher, more homespun style.
Named for a hymn book, this type of singing goes all the way back to the 1700s. In those days, people who attended churches didn't have a lot of education, Bradberry said.
To teach congregants music, singing schools used a notation system in their hymnals in which they gave each note a shape, a triangle, an oval, a square and a diamond. Each represents a musical syllable: fa, sol, la and mi.
Most people understand the concept, Bradberry said, when sacred harp is compared to the song "Do-Re-Mi," from the movie "The Sound of Music." The difference is that song uses seven syllables, while sacred harp uses only four.
"It's a way of reading music," Bradberry said, "It's like learning words to a song. If you know syllables of a song, you can figure out how it goes even if it's new."
In sacred harp, singers practice the song's tune the first time by singing the syllables, instead of the words. Then they add the words.
And unlike newer, more sentimental hymns, the words in these songs reflect the theology of that age. Lyrics tended to be dark, not optimistic — about hell fire and damnation — about death in an age where people often had to face loss.
Bradberry jokes that in Billings, after the group sings, "we have to eat jelly beans to get over that."
But the songs also can be very meaningful. And there are many of them.
She and a friend went to a sacred harp convention a year ago in Denver. They learned some sacred harp history on Friday and then on Saturday they started singing at 9 a.m.
"I had to quit at 1 or 2 in the afternoon because my voice gave out," Bradberry said. "They kept singing, and then on Sunday they sang most of the day."
She sang 120 hymns that weekend, and though she is familiar with many hymns, she only knew three of the songs sung that weekend.
The style of singing is at full throttle with little nuance, which Bradberry admits isn't her favorite way to sing. But overall, she called it "a rich experience," blending a cappella in four-part harmonies.
The singers sit in a hollow square, with one person standing in the middle to lead the group. Each of the four sides has a section of singers: treble, alto, tenor and bass.
"It's beautiful because it's very participatory; it's not for performance," Bradberry said. "We just sit and sing to each other. No (quality of) voice is required, no auditions, no applause. It's just singing for the joy of singing."
Although sacred harp was established in the American colonies, as they got more established and wealthy they imported organs and other instruments and moved away from the a cappella style.
In the meantime, the singing schools which taught sacred harp migrated to the South, where that style of singing struck a chord and remains popular today. Sacred harp has caught the imagination of a younger generation who enjoy it for the music, not necessarily the spirituality, and it has spread around the world.
"People are fascinated with it and they are going back in time to make things authentic rather than progressive," Bradberry said.
Daisy Eddy, a member of St. Andrew, said her daughter, Karen, spent five years at a college in North Carolina where sacred harp was common.
"It's an amazing sound when you get enough people together who know what they're doing," Eddy said. "And it just intrigued me."
When she and her daughter learned that Bradberry was starting a group in Billings, the pair decided to join in. It's her first time actually taking part.
Eddy likes that it's for everyone, not just the best of singers.
"The Lord says make a joyful noise," Eddy said. "You give it your all, and you realize you're relaxed and peaceful when you're done."

As density drops over time, so does risk, one study finds,,
WEDNESDAY, April 21 (HealthDay News) -- Having dense breasts has long been known to increase a woman's risk for breast cancer, and new research confirms that a decline in breast density over time does, in fact, decrease that risk.
New research also has found that women taking hormone replacement therapy are more likely to experience an increase in breast density, a finding consistent with previous research that found women taking the hormones had a 24 percent increased risk for breast cancer.
Both findings were to be presented Tuesday and Wednesday in Washington, D.C., at the annual meeting of the American Association for Cancer Research.
"Over 50 studies have shown that breast density is a strong risk factor for breast cancer," said Celine M. Vachon, an associate professor of epidemiology in the College of Medicine at the Mayo Clinic, in Minnesota. "Our study is one of the first to examine changes over time," Vachon said.
A very dense breast has less fat than glandular and connective tissue. Mammogram films of high-density breasts are more difficult to read and interpret than those of less dense breasts.
Vachon and her fellow researchers followed 19,924 women older than 35 who had never had breast cancer and looked at breast density changes and cancer diagnoses over time.
From that group, they randomly picked a sample of 219 women who developed breast cancer during the six-year follow-up period and 1,900 who did not. Women with breast cancer were more likely to have extreme breast density -- the highest of four categories -- at the start of the study, with 16 percent in the very dense category, compared with 14 percent of those who remained cancer-free.
Those who developed cancer were somewhat less likely than the other women to have a reduction in density of one category or more, with 37 percent of those with bre

Hurricane Earl May Impact Maine this Weekend August 30, 20103:00 PM FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASEHurricane Earl May Impact Maine this WeekendAUGUSTA, MAINE – Based on current model projections it is possible that the effects of Hurricane Earl will impact at least the coastal regions of Maine late this week and into the weekend. Maine Emergency Management Agency joins with the National Weather Service to remind Mainers to pay close attention to weather forecasts and conditions in their areas, and to observe all safety precautions. MEMA also urges citizens to start thinking about what they need to be doing now in case the hurricane does strike Maine. While the hurricane is still far to the south, the latest tracks indicate all of Maine is now within the 5 day cone. "Although the accuracy of tracks this far in advance is difficult to determine, it is essential that everyone begins to follow the weather reports closely," says MEMA Director Rob McAleer. He also says, "This storm is already a Category 3 hurricane and conditions are favorable for continued strengthening." Even if the hurricane does not strike the State directly, it is very likely that we will experience increased wave height and long period swells in the coastal waters, with high surf, large breaking waves and dangerous rip currents along the shoreline. McAleer wants to remind Mainers and visitors alike that, "Although large waves and crashing surf are spectacular to watch, these same waves can strike suddenly with tragic results." It was just last year on August 23, 2009, in the wake of Hurricane Bill, when a 20 foot wave at Thunder Hole in Acadia Park swept several people into the water and resulted in the death of a 7 year old girl. "Park Rangers and public safety officials work hard to protect people from the dangerous areas, but we all share a responsibility to act with extra caution," says McAleer. MEMA will continue to coordinate closely with the National Weather Service. Members of the State's Emergency Response team are being provided with regular updates, and, the State's Emergency Operations Center is prepared for activation as necessary. Additional safety and preparedness information can be found online at http://www.maineprepares.com /end Contact:Rob McAleer624-4400 Last update: 07/20/10 |

Bethesda has announced an October release for Dishonored.
Arkane Studios' supernatural assassin action game will be available in the US on October 9, in Australia on October 11 and throughout Europe on October 12.
Bethesda Softworks president Vlatko Andonov said: "We are pleased that Dishonored has captured people's attention. We are looking forward to sharing lots more information about the game leading up to its launch in October, and having a hands-on build of Dishonored in our booth at E3!"
Here's the official blurb on the exciting-looking PS3, Xbox 360 and PC title:
Dishonored is set in Dunwall, an industrial whaling city where steampunk- inspired technology and otherworldly forces coexist in the shadows. You are Corvo, the once-trusted bodyguard of the beloved Empress who has been murdered. Framed for the crime, you become an infamous assassin, known by the disturbing mask that has become your calling card.
In a time of uncertainty, when the city is besieged by plague and ruled by a corrupt government armed with frightening technologies, dark forces bestow supernatural abilities upon you - but at what cost? The truth behind your betrayal is as murky as the waters surrounding the city, and the life you once had is gone forever.
Creatively eliminate your enemies with Dishonored's flexible combat system as you combine supernatural abilities with weapons and gadgets at your disposal. Pursue your targets under the cover of darkness or boldly attack them head on with weapons drawn. The outcome of each mission plays out based on the choices you make.
In our recent Dihonored preview we said the game marries the best bits of BioShock, Assassin's Creed and Splinter Cell.
With Dishonored releasing in October and Hitman Absolution arriving in November, we're now a little less upset about BioShock Infinite's recent delay to 2013.
