Yes, Your child wants to learn!
Tiny Children Want To Learn
All children have an insatiable appetite to learn, they want to learn anything and everything around them. This is also true about young children learning math, although no child would want to learn math until he knows what math is all about. Under the right circumstances, any child can be taught reading or math at an early age.
Here are the important points about a tiny child's strong urge to learn and his incredible ability to learn:
- The process of learning begins at birth or earlier.
- All babies have a strong desire to learn.
- Little kids would rather learn than eat.
- Kids would much rather learn than play.
- Tiny kids believe it is their job to grow up.
- Little kids want to grow up immediately.
- All kids believe learning is a survival skill.
- They are right in believing this.
- Tiny children want to learn about everything immediately.
- Math is one of the things worth learning about.
If you observe a child carefully and with the right understanding, you'd notice his incredible urge to learn, to discover. In fact, a young child between the age of four months and four years is twice as curious as any adult scientist in any field of study. However, we as adults have made the erroneous judgement that this urge to learn as a child's short attention span. Click Here |
Generally, learning is referred to as the process that goes on in the one who is acquiring knowledge, while educating is often the learning process that is guided by a educator or school. Although everyone knows this intuitively, these two processes are frequently mistaken as one and the same.
As a result of this we sometimes feel that the more important processes of learning begins at the age of six since since formal education begins at that age. And how wrong we are to believe that!
The fact of the matter is that a child begins to learn at birth or earlier. By the time he is six years of age and begins his schooling he has already absorbed a fantastic amount of information, fact for fact, perhaps more than he will learn in the rest of his life.
Even before he reaches the age of six, a tiny child has learned most of the basic facts about himself and his family. He has learned about his neighbors and his relationships to them, his world and his relationship to it, and a lot of other facts that are literally too mind boggling to list. Most significantly, he has learned at least one whole language and sometimes more than one. (The odds are very small that he will ever really master an additional language after he is six.)
The child learns at an astomishing speed unless we somehow slow it down with great effort. But if we appreciate and encourage this process, it will take place at a truly unbelievable rate.
Fact is, a tiny child has, burning within him, a raging desire to learn.
If we want to stop this learning desire completely we have to destroy his entire being.
Maybe by completely isolating him from all external stimulus, we have a chance of quenching his desire to learn. For instance, we may have read of a fifteen-year-old idiot who is found in an attic chained to a bed-post, presumably because he was thought to be stupid. The reverse is probably the case. It is more likely that he is stupid because he was chained to the bed-post. To appreciate this fact, we must realize that only psychotic parents would chain any child. A parent chains a child to a bedpost because the parent is psychotic, and the result is an idiot child because he has been denied virtually all opportunity to learn
We can slow down the child's desire to learn by limiting the experiences to which we expose him. Unfortunately, we have done this almost universally by drastically underestimating what he can learn.
On the other had, we can increase his learning markedly simply by removing many of the physical restrictions we have placed upon him.
If we recognize his phenomenal capacity for learning, we can multiply the knowledge he absorbs many times over and give him unlimited opportunities while simultaneously encouraging him to learn.

We may have heard or read about some isolated but numerous cases of people who have actually taught tiny children to learn the most extraordinary things including math, foreign languages, reading, gymnastics and a host of other things by appreciating and encouraging them. In all the cases we were able to find, the results of such preplanned home opportunity for children to learn ranged from "excellent" to "astonishing" in producing happy well-adjusted children with exceptionally high intelligence.
It is essential to recognize that these children had not been found to have high intelligence first and then have been given unconventional opportunities to learn, but instead were simply children whose parents decided to expose them to as much information as possible at a very young age.
Once a mother realizes that all tiny children have a insatiable appetite learn and have a superb ability to do so, then respect is added to love, and one wonders how she could ever have missed it in the first place. Observe carefully any child between the age of one and two-years of age.
First of all, he drives everybody to distraction.
Why is that so? Because he won't stop sitting still. He cannot be dissuaded, disciplined or confined out of the desire to learn, no matter how hard we try – and we have certainly tried very hard. He would rather learn than eat or play.
He wants to learn about the cup and saucer on the coffee table. The television set, the lamp, the plug in the socket and the magazine and everything else in the room – which means that he switches on the TV, knocks over the lamp, spills the tea, puts his finger in the electric light socket and tears up the magazine. He is learning constantly and quite naturally, we can't stand it.
When we observe the way he behaves we have concluded that he is hyperactive and unable to pay attention to anything. The simple truth is that he pays attention to everything. He is supremely alert in every way he can be to learning about the world. He sees, hears, feels, smells and tastes. There is no other way to learn except by these five pathways into the brain, and the child uses them all.
He sees the TV and feels it and hear what it sounds like when he pats the screen loudly with his grubby hands. He sees the lamp and pulls it down so that he touch it, look at it, smell it and even taste it. Given the opportunity, he will do all these things to the TV and the lamp and he will do the same to every object in the room. He will want to stay in the room until he has absorbed all he can, through every sense available to him, about every object in the room. He is doing his best to learn and of course we are doing our best to dissuade him because his learning process hurts our wallet.
The good news is, you can help your child to learn reading, math and have an encyclopedic knowledge in a far less expensive manner. With the help of theGenius Maker software that is based on the principals of Glenn And Janet Doman.

Autism, Dyslexia And Genius
Having a child with dyslexia or autism may be stressful for parents. Some children with such ailments may exhibit behavior that is associated with genius. Learn what are the options open to parents to cope and bring out the best in the child.
There have been much research into possible links between dyslexia and genius and it continues to be ongoing, but it is clear that no child with dyslexia is precluded from being a genius. Leonardo da Vinci is an example. We cannot know for sure whether or not he was dyslexic, but from studying the material he left, it is certain that the letters in his notes emulate what can be a sign of dyslexia; all his letters are reversed. As we all know, this certainly didn't stop him from having brilliant ideas. Indeed, some research argues that it may have been his dyslexic ability that was a major factor that contributed to his gift for visualizing his ideas in such detail, and recreating them in his drawings so vividly.
Autism is something that most people are unfamiliar with and unless you have encountered it yourself. It is a myriad of conditions, in which a child can also have what are known as islets of ability. These islets are very special indeed and make the rest of our ability pale into insignificance in the kinds of creativity they often display.
If you are unfamiliar with the kind of things I am driving at, you may recall the film Rainman starring Dustin Hoffman, whose character had a fantastic ability in mathematics that enabled him to work out in his head the odds of winning in casino games. This kind of thing is not impossible for children or adults with autism.
If you are unfamiliar with the kind of things I am driving at, you may recall the film Rainman starring Dustin Hoffman, whose character had a fantastic ability in mathematics that enabled him to work out in his head the odds of winning in casino games. This kind of thing is not impossible for children or adults with autism.
From a very young age, the world-famous artist Steven Wiltshire was not only able to draw, but also produced sketches which commanded a complete understanding of perspective, architecture and dimension – a maturity in ability that otherwise can take years to develop to the degree of accuracy exhibited in his work. Tending to mix these high levels of creative ability with difficulty in being able to form empathy with others, the condition remains a perplexing one. However, research to date suggests that genius and autism are not mutually exclusive. Indeed, not all children with autism are comfortable around lots of people they are unfamiliar with, as is the scenario with a summer school programme, the children with autism I have known have handled it very well, and attended programmes voluntarily. It all depends on the individual child. So if your child does have autism, depending upon how comfortable they feel around other people, enrichment programmes are definitely worth exploring. Early childhood educational programs may also be beneficial to some degree.
It is quite clear that the guidance given here on children with special educational needs can only be general, it is not intended to be otherwise, and cannot replace a specific diagnosis of your child's abilities. The key point to be note is that while there is much research still to be done, there are clearly some huge areas of potential overlap between what might be construed as genius and children with special educational needs.
If your child is attending a special school, find out if the school is aware of the full range of your child's gifts that you have discovered. Parent's evenings are the best time to do this as you, your child and teachers are all present, creating the opportunity for open and positive discussion.
Remember that teachers are there to help and advise, and are with your child five days a week. Working together you have a better chance of coming up with a winning plan for your child's success. Are there any other factors that you need to take into consideration that may be helping or blocking your child's performances at school, for instance, relationships with peers and teachers. Once you and your child are happy that no stone has been left unturned, and that you have worked out a good plan of action with your school, set a date to review how the plan is going and/or make any adjustments at that time.

Early Learing Skills: Teach your Child to read
Bring out the genius in a child is a responsibility that all parents should undertake. It requires you to have a strong, positive attitude towards the learning process. Every child looks up to his or her mommy or daddy as a role model. If you are a parent yourself, you must guide your child and encourage her to have a deep, abiding thirst for knowledge. Your attitude will determine, to a large extent, how much and how fast your child will learn to read and enjoy reading.
For example, if you constantly bring work home and complain about how much material you have to read, it will have an adverse effect on your child. But if your child sees you absorbed in reading the newspaper or magazine or if she follows you to the library to select books, she will realize that you enjoy reading and will want to emulate you. Her natural insatiable appetite for learning, her sense of wonder, will accord her great enjoyment as she pursues the idea of reading, generated from the example you have set. Your can teach your child to read, help your child develop language, thinking and genius skills at home at an early age by following some reading tips.
1. Have an environment surrounded by books
Go for colorful, visually rich children's books. There are lots of such books out there and children are often intrigued by the pictures and colors that pique their interest.

Your child will be deeply happy and contented to receive your full attention. You also build a close bond between you and your child as being close gives her a sense of your care and love and this helps her to feel secure.

Who? Hunter S Thompson (high)
What's it about? Alex Gibney's biopic of the Sports Illustrated and Rolling Stone journalist who became world-famous in the '60s and '70s by / while / despite incorporating enthusiastic drug taking into his reportage of American life.
What's good about it? Far from being a rose-tinted tribute, also shows how Thompson's 'Gonzo' journalism suffered for his 'Gonzo' celebrity, making him (on his worst days) a drug-taking, gun-wielding headache. But then there's warming testimonials from a Hell's Angel with a hole in his neck, ex-President Jimmy Carter and a white-suited Tom Wolfe. And mesmerising dictaphone recordings of his very maddest moments, including Thompson and sidekick interrogating a taco stand in Las Vegas about the wherabouts of the American Dream.
What's bad about it? It's nearly two hours long, with too much footage of Thompson running around wearing an ironic President Nixon mask. Some of the LSD-inspired re-stagings are unnecessarily vexing, and they should have chosen some better songs. American Pie and All Along The Watchtower are so familar they make you weary.
Verdict: A moving pastiche that doesn't shirk the darkest elements of Thompson's character. But it'll still make you want to write letters to figures of authority, using phrases such as "bloated pig" and "cocksucker".
When? December 19.

Infertility: You Are Not So Unusual
I live in Virginia Beach with my wife and daughter. We went through a five-year journey with fertility treatments before our daughter was born as a result of IVF. I published an EBOOK for the Nook (Barnes and Noble) and Kindle (Amazon) titled "The Longest Love Letter". The book tells the story of my wifes amazing strength during that difficult time of our life. It is me speaking directly to my daughter telling her the story of unconventional way she came to be born.

((I will take a quick look.))
((In case that you didn't find it : Dest. If he has a power level of 4 or less, I come, if not... bah that's okay. I will soon go sleep, there is chance that I answer only tomorrow, early in the morning.))
Due to time issues and the fact that I haven't gotten around to levelling everyone, this'll be postponed until tomorrow post-homework.
((BTW If you want to use my shop as well a shop, send me a quick post in it and I can run my shop through any of these dungeon threads. I mean all they need to do is drop by, buy and sell, and continue with their day as a party. If its a post dungeon thing, then it might be best for them to walk in normal like, but hey I got a shop for a reason.))
((Dirilan, simply because I'm stuck for finding a third person, I'm giving you a level four pass on Dest. This is NOT his official power level; it's just that we need someone in this dungeon so I can start. This starts in five minutes, AKA when I get the intro up. Happy crawling!))
((Thank you =D At least, I can try him :3))
It was a slightly cloudy day; on the green, grassy hill above the dungeon's entrance, the group gathered, a small party of three, each holding a seal of the Institute of War with their power levels; presenting them to the road sign, which would vibrate slightly whenever a person passed, they would meet their two comrades and prepare to enter the dungeon.
Though the group was gathered, Dest was shuffling his deck as he was holding his seal in his right hand, waiting for the two yordle girls say that they are ready to enter in the dungeon.

The Harrison County Thorobreds wrestling team began the season Saturday as it hosted the Rumble on the Hilltop. Ten teams braved the cold and the snow, which greeted them as they began their trip to Cynthiana. Assistant Coach Luke Tucker was in charge of the tournament and worked with the teams to keep the matches going and allow for a good tournament.
The 2010-2011 Fillies' season continued on the right path Monday night as the Harrison County girls won a road game at Bourbon County, 54-45, over the Lady Colonels. The win makes the season record 2-0 with the next game Saturday night at McCreary County Central (0-2). The loss dropped the Lady Colonels to 1-2 after defeating Deming and losing to Maysville St. Patrick, both on the road.
Winter tennis team tops Scott County in weekend match Charlie Smith, Ben McDonald and Jacob Markley continue the winter tennis season with a team victory over Scott County this weekend. Smith handled Zack Botts, 8-2, while McDonald defeated Allison Rexroat, 8-1, and Markley also had an 8-1 win over Bobbi McClone. The doubles match went as well as the singles as Charlie and Ben defeated the doubles team of Allison and Madison Rexroat 8-2.
Freshman teams find early going rough
The Scott High Eagles made a four-point half time lead a 14-point lead at the end of three quarters and went on to defeat the Harrison County Thorobreds, 70-54 Tuesday night in Cynthiana. The Breds' inexperience reared its ugly head again in the third period as nine costly turnovers in the stanza helped limit the Breds to only seven points while the Eagles hit for 17. "We played hard," noted Coach Mike Reitz. "We have to learn to value each possession more and make better passes. This will come with time."
Bella Lee Quesenberry was born to Savannah Renaker and Dennis Quesenberry of Cynthiana on Dec. 2, 2010 at Harrison Memorial Hospital. She weighed 7 lbs. 2 oz.

Considering how the quest for exotic spice fueled exploration around the world in the 15th century, it is no wonder that our favorite holiday flavors herald from around the world. From Southwest India to Southeast Asia, we find cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg and mace. True cinnamon comes from the bark of Cinnamomum zeylanicum, an evergreen tree native to Southwest India. This is the premium spice that is harvested just as new growth emerges from 2-year-old stems. It has a light brown color and the interior of the quills (the curled strips) consist of several layers.

Mystery: University of Chicago Sent Elaborate Package for 'Indiana Jones'
A meticulously crafted delivery from the movie adventurer landed in the school's mailbag -- and no one knows who is responsible or how it got there. UPDATE: Mystery solved!
Officials at the admissions department of the University of Chicago are baffled and amazed at a package that landed in their mailroom on Tuesday, addressed to "Henry Walton Jones, Jr."
[UPDATE: The mystery has been solved. See below.]
For Raiders of the Lost Ark aficionados, that name should ring a bell: It's the given name of Indiana Jones.
Jones was, of course, an archaeology professor at the university between his high-flying adventures, and the package is exhaustively faithful to the franchise mythology. Inside the manila envelope secured with string, school employees found a treasure of meticulously executed Jones lore brought to life, including a journal penned by Abner Ravenswood -- Indy's academic mentor and father of his Raiders love interest, Marion Ravenswood.
"The book itself is a bit dusty, and the cover is teal fabric with a red velvet spine, with weathered inserts and many postcards/pictures of Marion Ravenwood (and some cool old replica money) included," the school's admissions department writes on their official Tumblr. "It's clear that it is mostly, but not completely handmade, as although the included paper is weathered all of the "handwriting" and calligraphy lacks the telltale pressure marks of actual handwriting."
The mystery deepens when you consider that none of the vintage stamps on the package are real -- rather, they are pasted-on photocopies. Nevertheless, the package arrived in the mail bin with the rest of their regular mail.
The university has thrown it out to the Internet, in hopes of finding out just who is responsible for this extraordinary stunt.
"If you're an applicant and sent this to us: Why? How? Did you make it? Why so awesome? ... If you are an Indiana Jones enthusiast and have any idea who may have sent this to us or who made it, let us know that, too.... Any hints, ideas, thoughts, or explanations are appreciated," the school writes.
Anyone with any pertinent knowledge is prompted to forward what they know to a special email account set up in honor of the mysterious package: email@example.com.
UPDATE: The mystery has been solved: The creator of the piece was a man named Paul in Guam, according to the school's admissions office blog, who creates Indiana Jones artifacts for a living and sells them on eBay. The package in question was meant to be delivered to a purchases in Italy, but the package slipped out of its envelope and instead was delivered to the school address listed on the replica envelope.

Other Pets at Give 4 Paws A Second Chance
Why Adoption is a Great Option
lacey, a zephyr German Shepherd Dog dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a German Shepherd Dog for sale in zephyr, or seeking a German Shepherd Dog dog from a breeder in zephyr.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in zephyr already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a zephyr breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even German Shepherd Dog breeders who help with German Shepherd Dog rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in zephyr paves the way for another one to be saved.

I have wished I had a slider ever since I got my Delta 10" CMS back in 1990 something.. I have the same problem others do with the mounting depth required by the sliders because my work station is against a wall. I really like the Mikita design with the hypoid drive and the double slide rails. I have basically decided when I upgrade I will give serious consideration to a non sliding 12" saw, or the Mikita 10" slider. -- Michael :-{| "If you tell a big enough lie and tell it frequently enough, it will be believed." ― A H |

· Commuters stunned as Sky Atlantic unleashes hyper-realistic, full sized 'adult Polar Bear' on the streets of London · Activation celebrates the launch of arctic based crime drama 'Fortitude' · Intricate semi-animatronic design took 19 designers two months to construct · Bear animated by two character actors from hit West End show 'War Horse'
LONDON, Tuesday 27th January: An 8 ft long, fully animated 'adult male polar bear' was unleashed on the freezing streets of London this morning to mark the launch of Sky Atlantic's hotly anticipated arctic crime drama 'Fortitude'.
The bear was spotted at locations across the capital, including Hampstead Heath, Charing Cross Underground and the South Bank.
The unique ultra-realistic build was created by a team of Hollywood special effects experts and was commissioned by Sky Atlantic to celebrate the launch of its gripping new thriller, Fortitude, premiering on Thursday 29th January at 9pm. The series boasts an all-star cast including Academy Award nominee Stanley Tucci, acting legend Michael Gambon and Christopher Eccleston. With a stellar cast, the critically acclaimed 11-episode thriller is set to wow audiences thanks to its compelling plot and the jaw dropping cinematography.
A team of 19 prop specialists spent eight weeks designing and building the realistic replica animal.
There were six to eight people working on the costume at any one time, using over 60 types of materials which included 90 square foot of sheet fur.
The finish of the head was achieved using a process known as flocking, which involves feeding individual strands of nylon hair into the skull and then using an electrostatic current which causes the hairs to stand up on end. Over the top of the flock longer hairs are individually hand punched into place in directions seen in natural growth.
The highly sophisticated prop uses internal monitors linked to hidden cameras, allowing the two performers inside to see. The puppeteers, who spent three years working together as 'Joey' in the award-winning West End production of War Horse, studied footage of real polar bears before spending five days rehearsing in order to get the gait and other movements right.
Zai Bennett, Director of Sky Atlantic, says, "In Fortitude, there are 3000 polar bears to 713 residents. Polar bears are the most dangerous animal on land and present an ever present threat to Fortitude's inhabitants. To launch our new Arctic-noir thriller we wanted to bring a realistic polar bear to the streets of London to give people an up close experience of what it must be like to come face to face with one of the biggest, but uncredited stars of our new show."

LONDON, Monday 6th October 2014: A giant canvas of Kiefer Sutherland's character Jack Bauer, from the critically-acclaimed and Emmy Award winning drama 24 has been installed in Borough Market in central London.
The mosaic portrait was created using 1,485 London post cards on a 24 metre square canvas, standing 6 metres high by 4 metres wide.
The artwork was produced in 24 hours using 24 different types of London post cards, to mark the launch of the Blu-ray and DVD release of 24: Live Another Day, out today.
The mosaic features an array of London post cards using iconic images of the City including Big Ben, Beefeaters, The Ritz, London Eye and Black Taxis.
Positioned in Borough Market – a filming location used in 24: Live Another Day - Surrey based multi-media artist Quentin Devine was challenged by Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment to create the artwork in just 24 hours, meaning one post card had to be laid on the canvas every minute to meet the deadline.
Quentin Devine who devised the giant artwork comments: "Creating a giant Jack Bauer portrait on a 24 metre squared canvas, in 24 hours, using just 24 different types of London post cards, sounds like a challenge fit for the man himself! Just like Jack I had to meticulously plan my strategy, sticking one post card down to the giant 24 metre square canvas every minute, before time ran out. I certainly felt the pressure as the clock was ticking but luckily for me the fate of the World wasn't resting in my hands. Seeing the final artwork being installed in Borough Market is the perfect homage to the new series 24: Live Another Day. "
Set in London, 24: Live Another Day sees Kiefer Sutherland return as the infamous hero Jack Bauer, delivering more explosive action than viewers could have hoped for. Exiled in London for four years, former Counter Terrorist Unit agent Jack Bauer (Sutherland) must spring into action to try to save U.S. President James Heller (William Devane).
24: Live Another Day arrives on Blu-ray and DVD on 6th October from Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment.

LONDON, Monday 14th July 2014: The dead parrot at the centre of the eponymous sketch performed by John Cleese and Michael Palin, first screened 45 years ago, has been recreated on a giant scale to celebrate the screening of the very last Monty Python live show on comedy TV channel Gold this Sunday, the 20th July.
The mammoth model of the 'Norwegian Blue' was commissioned by the comedy channel following a survey of 2000 comedy fans which named the surreal pet shop skit as the nation's favourite Monty Python sketch of all time.
The famous sketch was first broadcast on 7 December 1969 and remains a firm favourite with audiences who have been enjoying the live shows at The O2 this month.
The sculpture caused a stir amongst London commuters as it was hung upside down by a crane before being respectfully laid to rest on its back at Potters Fields on London's South bank near Tower Bridge. The model, which is made from fibre glass, took a team of three sculptors over two months to design, construct and paint. The giant dead parrot measures 15 metres (almost 50 feet) from the tip of its tail to the top of its head, the equivalent to the height of five elephants standing on top of one another.
Lead sculptor Iain Prendergast says, "We are all Monty Python fans so we were delighted to receive the brief from Gold to recreate the mythical 'Norwegian Blue' on a giant scale. We watched both live and televised versions of the sketch and found that there have been a number of different incarnations of the parrot with a variety of different plumages. Our sculpture provides a colourful hybrid of the dead parrots which have featured in the celebrated sketch. The key challenge for us was capturing the comedy value of the dead parrot, keeping the realism of the bird whilst also adding touches like the bloodshot, 'stunned' eyes."
The homage to the iconic Monty Python sketch will be taken to The O2 arena where fans attending the final run of live shows will be able to say their final farewell to the comedy troupe, taking pictures of the giant dead parrot and adding to the Twitter buzz using the hashtag #montypythonlive.
Steve North, General Manager of Gold says, "We believe that our giant dead parrot provides a fitting tribute to a sketch that is so loved by audiences throughout the world. We hope that fans will join us for the final Monty Python performance this Sunday to see Britain's greatest ever comedy group bow out in style."
Gold will be screening the live broadcast of the final Monty Python Live (mostly): One Down Five To Go stage show on Sunday 20th July.

► Micro-artist carves portraits of England footie heroes out of Brazil Nuts to launch Dave's new series in the run up to the World Cup ►Bite size artworks of the nation's tastiest players Gazza, Lineker, Becks, Shearer and Rooney ► Work commissioned by Dave to celebrate the launch of 'England's Top 19 Footy Heroes'
Full set of pictures here
Ahead of this summer's World Cup tournament in Brazil and Dave's brand new three-part football series, UKTV channel Dave challenged artist Quentin Devine to carve five of England's most iconic footballing legends entirely out of Brazil nuts.
The faces of Gary Lineker, Paul Gascoigne, David Beckham, Alan Shearer and current England star Wayne Rooney have been skilfully carved into the local Brazilian delicacy to mark the launch of the football specials: England's Top 19 Footy Heroes, England's Top 53 Footy Goals and England's Top 39 Footy Gaffes coming to Dave from Tuesday 20th May at 9pm.
Each Brazil nut, measuring an average of 1.5 by 2 centimetres, took on average a painstaking 96 hours to carve with Quentin working day and night to perfect Rooney's hairline, the raw emotion of Gazza and Beckham's dashing good looks. The artist worked his way through 53 nuts before finally cracking the finished portraits and spent the most time finessing Gary Lineker's oversized ears.
Artist Quentin Devine says, "When Dave asked me to carve the faces of five of England's most loved football legends out of Brazil nuts I knew it would be a challenge. The nuts can be very oily and extremely brittle but I think I managed to successfully capture the essence of each these football heroes. My final piece, Gary Lineker, proved to be a tough nut to crack with his large ear span reducing the already tiny surface area I had to work with. After over 20 attempts, many broken ears and all hope lost, I finally perfected it. On another note, I know Dave is a comedy channel, but an Irish man carving English footballers into Brazil nuts is a real joke isn't it?"
After studying a vast library of images of England players over the years and using nothing more than a scalpel, a magnifying glass and 99p bag of Brazil Nuts, Quentin set up his studio to complete the gruelling challenge. The surface area he created his masterpieces on is no more than the size of a five pence coin.
Steve North, General Manager of UKTV channel Dave says, "Here at Dave we are going absolutely nuts for the World Cup, so what better way to celebrate the forthcoming summer of football than to immortalise five of our best ever players as Brazil nut carvings. This was a challenge to end all challenges and the skill of the artist should be applauded, we thought Quentin would struggle with the oily, nutty surfaces but after 53 attempts he well and truly cracked it!
The unique world first artworks were specially commissioned to mark the launch of a special series of World Cup Programming on Dave. England's Top 19 Footy Heroes, England's Top 53 Footy Goals and England's Top 39 Footy Gaffes will star comedians and sports pundits such as Alex Brooker, Tom Rosenthal, Phil Cornwell and Adrian Chiles and sporting heroes including Gary Lineker, Ian Wright, Lee Dixon, Jim Rosenthal, Michael Vaughan and former German star Didi Hamann, as they take a look back at some of England's greatest footballing achievements and World Cup memories. The series, voiced by popular British comedian Jason Manford and written by Paul Hawksbee (Harry Hill's TV Burp, TalkSport, Fantasy Football League), will air in May ahead of the World Cup in the summer.
Dave's football season kicks off with England's Top 19 Footy Heroes on Tuesday 20th May at 9pm.

"Sometimes it's not the size of the budget that counts, but the size of the imagination and Taylor Herring has shown huge ongoing imagination with its PR campaign for Tesco streaming service, blinkbox. Making an impression in a market dominated by Netflix and Amazon/Lovefilm was never going to be easy, but the judges were won over by the creative vision of the Taylor Herring team. The launch of a Gosline, a Ryan Gosling helpline, went viral. It staged a Star Trek Into Darkness inspired teleporter stunt in a shopping centre, hiring twins for a fake transportation routine. For Game of Thrones, the agency created a lifesize dragon skull, placing it on a beach, and gambling on social media to make the connection with blinkbox (it did). "

Top Of The Shops!
LONDON, Wednesday 28th November: East London shoppers had the surprise of their lives when their local corner store in Dalston's Kingsland High Street became a giant musical instrument for one day only.
The shop, Best Supermarket, was radically transformed overnight from a typical neighbourhood store selling everyday goods to an all-singing, all-dancing musical masterpiece by Red Stripe lager beer for their Make Music in the Corner Shop project which brought a little slice of Jamaica to the UK for one day only.
Products on the shelves and items left scattered around the store became the most unlikely of instruments, triggered into performance when a customer chose a Red Stripe from the shelves.
The reactions of surprised patrons were captured in a ground-breaking video, released today, as they set off the corner shop to the well known rock steady tune of "A Message to You Rudy" by Jamaican musician, Dandy Livingstone, later made famous by The Specials.
Unsuspecting customer Gabriella Peluffo said: "(It was) Absolutely phenomenal how they turned an ordinary shop into a magical musical! I was thrilled to have experienced the stock on the shelves literally come to life… so, so, clever."
The instruments ranged from trumpets made out of glass bottles to a xylophone constructed from food cans, by way of jumping boxes and brooms and dustpans with lives of their own.
10 hidden cameras, 750 metres of cable and 12 metres of LED lights were used to create and record the experience as the smaller component parts combined to create on big musical experience, much to the amusement of customers who dropped in to pick up their daily essentials.
Best Supermarket owner Ilker Ozdil said: "I've owned this shop over for four years and have never seen people as surprised and happy as they were coming here that day… The expressions on their faces were brilliant! I wish we could keep the instruments here forever!"
David Graham, Red Stripe brand manager said: "Red Stripe can be found in most of the UK's corner stores – we wanted to entertain our loyal consumers and do something truly surprising and original which would make popping to the shop a lot more enjoyable than usual!"
The full list of instruments:
1. Bottle Trumpet
2. Food Can Xylophone
3. Gondola Bass
4. Sweeping Broom Shaker
5. Clapping Dustpan Timbale
6. Tetra Pak Maracas
7. Jumping Box Drums
8. Rolling Pot Noodle Maraca
9. Clinking Bottle Bells
10. Fridge door and bottle tap
11. Nut packet shakers
The video and behind-the-scenes footage will also be available to view at www.redstripe.net.

In what must be deemed a gold medal winning U-turn, London 2012 organisers, LOCOG, have reversed their position from yesterday which demanded the removal of Paddy Power's latest advertising campaign from poster sites around the Olympic City.
The billboards in question were erected to promote the bookmaker's sponsorship of an elite athletics event featuring an egg and spoon race that is scheduled to take place in the picturesque town of London, France on 01 August 2012 and is part of the bookmaker's on-going "We Hear You" marketing campaign.
Coincidentally today's change of heart by LOCOG, which was communicated by their law firm Freshfields was taken just moments before Paddy Power's law firm, Charles Russell, were set to enter the High Court in London seeking a court order against the Olympic organisers.
The legal ruling was sought by Paddy Power on the grounds that their campaign does not breach LOCOG legislation on advertising around the 2012 Games.
Over the past 24 hours, tens of thousands of Paddy Power fans turned to social media to show their support for the ad campaign and to vent their anger at LOCOG's decision, resulting in the bookmaker trending on Twitter in the UK earlier today.
Paddy Power have confirmed that they will be seeking to recoup their legal costs from LOCOG and if successful will donate the full amount to grassroots sports initiatives across the UK.
A spokesperson from Paddy Power said "This is a victory for common sense and for each and every one of our customers and fans who supported us along the way. The athletes of London, France will be breathing a collective sigh of relief this afternoon. May the Games begin!"
Paddy Power is Ireland's largest bookmaker and a leading provider of gaming services in the UK, Australia, France, Canada, Italy and Ireland. Founded in 1988 Paddy Power is a publicly quoted company and is listed on both the Irish and London Stock Exchanges (www.paddypowerplc.com)

hi WTE
this are forums where people come for linux help.
please read the forum RULES!!
- 08-25-2006 #3
Actually this is the internet - not a country. I'm moderating from Europe. Please read the forum rules
This is not a place for negativity or sounding off, this is linuxforums. People come here for help and to offer it to others.
Please refer specifically to this section of the rules -Negativity - Something we have discussed in the past is the number of "negative" posts that show up on this forum. A few examples of negative orientated topics are "worst distro", "do you hate microsoft", "i hate life", "what sucks more, microsoft or BSD", etc. To summarise, a negative topic is any topic that is likely to generate a lot of responses of a negative nature. In other words, this is borderline trolling. Expect these topics to be locked on sight from now on.Implementation of rules -
This is done entirely at the discretion of the moderator

IN THE pages of Landlust people take time not just to bake bread but to build their own ovens. Children canter on broomstick horses. Old clothes become quilted slippers. Each bimonthly issue celebrates the cosy, bygone, hand-wrought and flower-dappled. Nothing jarring or turbocharged intrudes.
Landlust (the title suggests fondness for nature, not rapacity) was launched in 2005 by an agricultural-trade publisher. Its circulation is now 800,000. Copycats (Mein schönes Land, Landleben) have crowded in. Circulation of home and gardening magazines grew by 3.3% in 2010. It inspires food (new jams made from local fruit), books ("Landlust: self-discovery in the German provinces") and satire ("today we fry a giant mushroom", sings an entertainer).
The formula mixes escapism with authenticity. "We are bombarded with negative news," says Ute Frieling-Huchzermeyer, the editor. "We have to focus on positive things that we can draw strength from." The new outbreak of E. coli will probably not feature. Yet Landlust insists on being "true and real." Photographs feature ordinary folk, not supermodels. Interiors are shown with their own furniture. This makes Landlust different from Britain's posh Country Life. "We meet our readers on their level," says Mrs Frieling-Huchzermeyer.
Most readers are middle-aged women on good incomes. They are not alone in being beset by modern life but, argues Stephan Grünewald, author of "Germany on the Couch" and sometime adviser to Landlust, Germans suffer more. The French have a stronger national identity, buttressed by good living. Germans, trapped on "the hamster wheel of life", have lost touch with the "art of living", how to cook, talk to their spouses, and raise their children.
Landlust's rural nostalgia is really a descendant of 19th- and 20th-century back-to-nature movements like the nudist Freikörperkultur, argues an essay in Die Zeit, a weekly newspaper. Vegetarische Warte ("vegetarian view") was the Landlust of 100 years ago. Today's Landlust beckons readers to reconnect with what they have lost. Its real subject, says Mrs Frieling-Huchzermeyer, is not the countryside but "our roots".
It is strictly apolitical, but Mr Grünewald sees a link between its success and the rise of the Greens. Landlust readers, like Green voters, spurn the "culture of maximisation", which is why the magazine is cautious about taking advertising. Winfried Kretschmann, the new Green premier of the state of Baden-Württemberg, has been dubbed the "Landlust politician". It will do him no harm.

Hi beautiful readers,
I know it's been a while since I posted anything on my blog. With my Kilimanjaro trek to train for I had to prioritise that over everything else including my writing. I have really missed it but I'm glad I made the choices that I did at the time because it kept me safe and got me through the 7 days I spent on the mountain. The climb was by far the hardest thing I have ever done but also one of the greatest experiences of my life. It was filled with many highs as well as many lows, and it's something I will always remember. When I look back at it all, I do wonder how I did any of it. The trek (and even the training itself) was a huge metaphor for what my life has been like and what I have overcome over the years.
Now that I'm back from Africa, I face a lot of uncertainties. I'm going through something I don't understand and perhaps may never fully understand. It's taken a lot of courage to make the choices I've made and live my life in a different way. However, it's definitely a way that's more positive and more in line with who I am today.
It wasn't until I flew back to the UK after the trek, I realised how much of a toll my commitment to Kilimanjaro hasn't taken on me both physically and emotionally. It took over my whole life for such a long time and there was no room for anything else, but in saying this, I wouldn't change a single thing. It was a great learning experience and I saw the most beautiful views along the way. I was literally on top of the world and seen things some people may never see in their lifetimes. It was worth the hard work and effort and I think that's true for anything in life. I believe that if you really want something then you'll do whatever it takes to achieve that dream. And when things seem hopeless and you face challenge upon challenge, then that's the crucial point to keep going for its right before the miracle happens.
"It is never too late to be what you might have been."
(George Eliot)
I've been thinking a lot about my blog lately and I have made a decision to step back from it for a while. It wasn't one I expected to make after the trek but it's the right choice for me right now. This includes a break from all social media too. I've gone through some radical changes in the last few years so I feel I need time to take it all in and just be. I don't know what comes next. As usual life can be quite mysterious but sometimes in order to move forwards, a step back is necessary.
"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious"
(Albert Einstein)
Whether I will continue with this blog after my break is still yet to be decided. I'm in no rush and I'm going to give myself time to readjust (however long that may be). In the meantime, I will be working on some creative ideas and concepts that have been on my mind for a while. It may possibly take the place of this blog so watch this space! I will also be writing again but just for myself for a while.
Thank you very much to you all for supporting my journey on this blog. I am so grateful for the love you have shown me. I wanted to leave you with a few photos of me from my Kilimanjaro trek below.
