After the February 2011 earthquake, Jeremy Borland, "the sign-language guy", became a familiar face on our television sets.
Night after night he appeared on the news, translating the words of Christchurch Mayor Bob Parker and others into sign language.
Two years later, life is slowly returning to normal for Borland.
"It was pretty crazy there, but it has died down," he said.
"I'm back to mainly doing the sort of work I was doing before the earthquakes - intepreting for court cases, police, the university and privately.
"The only difference is that Earthquake Commission claims are continuing. I do a bit of private interpreting for people in regards to that."
There has been one big change for Borland. He and wife Nicole had baby Levi five months ago.
"He's a joy to have," he said. "There have been a few sleepless nights, but we're getting used to that, as all new parents have to."
Levi is the couple's second child. Their first son, Toby, died, aged 3 months, in February 2010 as the result of a genetic condition.
Borland said it was important that Levi grew up fluent in sign language.
"We're already doing some signs. We think he understands the sign for bath," he said.
"He loves his bath and when we do the sign his eyes light up and he starts pretending to splash around and he knows his bath is coming. He is too young to do any signs, but it won't be long."
The months after the February 2011 quake were now "a bit of a blur", Borland said.
"Everything was turned on its head and it all moved very quickly. If I step back for a minute and reflect, it still feels very strange."
Borland became an instant hit and people began recognising him on the street. He was pleased his profile had since died down.
"It was a crazy 15 minutes of being well known and in the public eye. For a couple of months after the earthquakes it went crazy and people would come up to me," he said.
"That was incredibly weird, but that's mostly stopped now. I still occasionally get recognised in an interpreting situation when people put two and two together."
"I feel more comfortable being able to go below the radar now. Part of being an interpreter is being very impartial, and so from a work perspective it's also nice to have a lower profile."
He was pleased the quakes had raised the profile of sign-language interpreting. "The public has a much better understanding now that it is a profession."

Richard Black owes the owner of Violet House a favor, so he agrees to stay at
the oceanfront bed and breakfast for three weeks while his friends vacation in the Bahamas. He never imagined the new cook he's forced to hire at the last minute would quicken his pulse and stir his darkest desires. Tessa's the hardest temptation he's tried to resist, so young and so innocent, but their mutual attraction soon explodes into several nights of passion and exploration as he teaches her to submit.
Tessa Field will take almost any job, as long as room and board is included. She's desperate to escape her cruel stepfather and stepbrother after the death of her mother, and the temporary position as a cook and maid at Violet House seems like the perfect stepping stone in her quest for independence. She finds herself drawn to the enigmatic Mr. Black, and it isn't long before he masters her sexually and dominates her every waking thought. But when she's offered a job interview at a nearby business, reality beckons. Knowing her time at Violet House is limited and fearing Mr. Black isn't interested in a permanent relationship, she sneaks off for the interview. Apparently,
their happiness isn't meant to last . . . or is it? Richard's not the kind of man to take no for an answer, and he has a few tricks up his sleeve.

MOSCOW (Reuters) - All 227 vehicles that entered Ukraine as part of a Russian aid convoy have now returned to Russian soil, security watchdog the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) said on Saturday.
The Vienna-based OSCE said in a statement the vehicles were counted back in to Russia from Ukraine by its observer mission deployed at a border crossing.

I'd like to by a set of slopers in various sizes. I've got my own little set of homemade ones but they're a bit rubbish and my sleeves never fit right.
I've found this place that's great (http://pattern.stringcodes.com) but in in the US and it will take an age to arrive. Can you buy slopers on the highstreet like any pattern or prehaps online but UK based?
I'm looking for children and infant sizes specificly.
Any ideas?

Thanks, I heard 'morplan' before but I have no idea what it is. The only moreplan I know is a retail shop for shop fittings and stuff. It can't be that place.

Replying to a request for an interview from Lynn Barber, Lucian Freud wrote, "I see no reason why I should be shat on by a stranger." It says something of Freud's dislike of publicity that the reply that another journalist, Geordie Greig, received to his request could be considered, by contrast, something of a breakthrough: "Dear Mr Greig, Your suggestion of interviewing me for my Tate show next year makes me sick. But if I am alive then I will consider it."
Freud saw no point in submitting to journalistic portraiture. It's hard to say – without having ever met him, since his assistant last year very politely refused my request – exactly why he avoided press, but it's likely to be as simple an explanation as just having so much damn work to do. Freud did occasionally give in and agree to talk to journalists, but usually under circumstances that deflected the attention away from himself (for instance being interviewed together with his friend the painter Frank Auerbach).
For most of his celebrated years though he was a member of the exclusive club that hope that their work, and work alone, will resonate with the public, and that no sharp-witted intermediary is necessary. What difference would a Lucian Freud soundbite about David Cameron's policies or Tracey Emin's quilts have made? Nothing at all, I'm bound to admit – and the more interviews one gives, the less those soundbites matter.
Plenty of others besides Freud have, wherever possible, avoided interviews and yet enjoyed fame and success. Think of Kate Moss, Banksy, Alan Bennett, Paul Scholes and Jonathan Ive (the inventor of the iPod and Apple's best-kept secret, just in case you couldn't picture his face). Rebekah Brooks was doing pretty well ducking interviews until recently, and so was Andy Coulson. Then there are those for whom No always meant No: Thomas Pynchon, or Harper Lee, who never gave an interview for 50 years after To Kill a Mockingbird. Jackie O spoke not a single word in public about JFK's murder. The Queen has never deigned – and why should she? Whether through shyness, cynicism about the press, lack of time or as part of a careful PR plan, interview avoidance far from diminishes fame and allure.
The face-to-face encounter won't die, though, simply because the best of them are too much fun to both write and read. I also take some heart in the arrival of a new European edition of Andy Warhol's Interview magazine – the original featured celebrities in conversation with each other – due to launch in 2012. Yet I have a grudging respect for those like Freud who have rarely given us the chance to get close. Petulantly, the press often end labelling these people "hermits" when they are far from it. JM Coetzee is called "a recluse" but according to those who've met him, he is simply not interested in doing publicity. The same goes for Kate Bush, who shockingly only gave one interview for her last album. "I'm not some weirdo recluse," she was forced to insist to Mojo magazine (in an interview long enough that they were able to splash it over 16 pages).
Often, there's a very sensible reason for celebrity reticence. In 1980 a schoolboy reporter managed to get an interview with Steve McQueen, who had turned away from publicity late in his career. What's the reason for your silence, asked the young hack. "For one thing, I don't have anything to say," apologised McQueen. Paul Scholes might have said the same thing before overcoming his shyness in 2004 to answer a reporter's question about his typical day: "Train in the morning, pick up my children from school, play with them, have tea, put them to bed and then watch a bit of TV." Hold the front page....
Can we see a bit more of this royal wedding?
It's a shame we won't be able to watch it live on BBC1, or enjoy an extra day off work, but I'm rather looking forward to the non-royal Royal Wedding of the summer. Apologies to those of you who aren't yet aware of this happy event (this isn't the Telegraph after all).
On Saturday, Zara Phillips, who is not a royal, not officially anyway, and Mike Tindall, captain of the England rugby team, are getting hitched up in Edinburgh at Canongate Kirk. The whole affair is very much not being underwritten by the taxpayer – aside from the sizeable security bill covering the core members of the Royal Family – and the sense of lèse-majesté begins on Friday night at a pre-wedding party on the former Royal Yacht Britannia, decommissioned to many regal tears in 1997. The next day, the Queen is hiring out Holyroodhouse for the reception, despite it actually belonging to her.
The economies don't end there. Under pressure from HM, Zara has reportedly been forced to turn down a £1m deal with Hello! magazine. It's far from the £100 wedding lately being promoted by the Rev David Newton of Gilderstone Baptist Church, but adds some weight to Tindall's recent claim that our royals are "good, fun people, all of them. They're just a normal family." If only they'd let us gawp a bit more, as at any other regular multimillionaire WAG wedding.
Pub-quiz team names that capture the zeitgeist
Thanks to reader Alan Perry, who shared my pain at trying to come up with pub quiz team names that are at once witty and fitting. Some might say the latter, at least, was well covered in our name "Malakas" – the friendly Greek form of address that, confusingly, means both "mate" and (apologies for the less nuanced English translation here) "wanker". Alan wrote to tell me his team name is also The Malakas, but that I might consider a variation, another that's a timely choice for the holiday season. "Did you know that the word "pajero", as in the Mitsubishi make of car, is the Spanish for malaka?" Thanks Alan, I'll give it a spin.

mount of olives 248.88. (photo credit:Ariel Jerozolimski)
If cemeteries disturb you, the Mount of Olives is not for you; it is today a place for the dead, containing thousands of graves. It has been so for millennia, as some of the tombs are more than 3,000 years old, dating from Canaanite times.This place marks the end of the Judean wilderness, as the Mount of Olives rises about 800 meters above sea level and more than a kilometer above the Dead Sea, standing as an eastern bulwark to keep the deadly desert from entering Jerusalem. Mortality is everywhere, both historically and geographically on this mount and the adjoining Kidron Valley. Jesus wept for his friend Lazarus, who died on the east side of this mount. Through that same valley and over the mountain, King David fled from his son Absalom, who sought his death. Instead, Absalom's monument stands at the mount's foot. The scapegoat of Leviticus 16 was lead thorugh the Kidron Valley, soon to be tossed off a mountain in the desert, thus carrying away the sins of the people. Jesus prayed at the bottom of the mountain, asking his heavenly Father to excuse him from the ultimate sacrifice, but later that night was led through the Kidron to be the "lamb of God that takes away the sins of the world" (John 1). And as Jesus' death resulted in life for many, death on the Mount of Olives is marked by a hope of resurrection. Just six weeks before Jesus' final trip to Jerusalem, he went to Bethany on the backside of the Mount of Olives, just three kilometers away. Being told by Mary of Lazarus' death, Jesus replied: "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies…" Giving life to the four-days deceased Lazarus, Jesus would accelerate his own death and resurrection at the upcoming Passover. Even the multitude of tombs on the mount testifies of a hope for new life. Regarding the hillside's crypts, Shiela Gylenberg, a tour guide and instructor in Historical Geography at Israel College of the Bible, suggests that "perhaps the connection with the resurrection of the dead comes from Zechariah's prophecy [chapter 14] regarding a future day on which the Lord will fight against the nations that will gather against Jerusalem and 'His' feet will be seen on the Mount of Olives. "Christian readers will almost automatically link this prophecy to the second coming of Messiah, although the Hebrew original has no direct reference to him. Jewish tradition, however, also links the appearance of the Messiah to the Mt. of Olives, perhaps based on the same Zechariah passage." Adding to the mount's popularity as a final destination is a Jewish legend that devout Jews will burrow underground to get to the mount in the last days. Those already buried there are spared the journey. Matthew 23 records that Jesus was teaching at the Temple, about 200 meters from the tomb-filled mount, when he accused his listeners: "Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs, which look beautiful on the outside but on the inside are full of dead men's bones and everything unclean. In the same way, on the outside you appear to people as righteous but on the inside you are full of hypocrisy and wickedness. Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You build tombs for the prophets and decorate the graves of the righteous …" The graves, and particularly the "monumental burials of the priests and Sadducees at the foot of the mount," likely prompted Jesus to use them as a spiritual illustration, according to Gylenberg. The Mount of Olives itself provided King David with a powerful metaphor in Psalms 125: "As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the Lord surrounds His people." "Standing on the Mt. of Olives, one can clearly visualize David, in his small capital on the ridge south of today's Old City - gazing up to the Mt. of Olives on the east, the Temple Mount on the north, the hills to the west and south, and seeing it all as a metaphor," Gylenberg explains. In terms of terrain, the Mount of Olives is part of a 3.5 km ridge that includes Mt. Scopus to the north and the Mount of Offence to the south. Each of the three mesas is marked by a tower. "More than 800 meters at its higher elevations, it acts as a barrier to the moist air coming in from the Mediterranean, forcing it to rise, cool and condense, showering Jerusalem and the Judean Hills with an average of 600 mm (24 inches) of annual rainfall. That is as much as London receives. But look east from the Mount of Olives and all one sees is dry wilderness - called a 'rain-shadow desert,' since the air passing over the Mount of Olives leaves all its moisture on the western side," according to Gylenberg. This results in immediate badlands on the mount's eastern slopes, and even more barren conditions as the terrain drops below sea level so that Jericho, 20 km east (and more than a kilometer lower than the summit) receives about 20% as much rain as Jerusalem. On the east of the mount, the soil changes from the verdant terra rosa to chalky limestone, which holds water poorly and is less likely to yield crops, especially on sloping land such as the Judean Wilderness, which plummets to the aptly named Dead Sea, the deepest spot on Earth. Gylenberg elaborates: "Pilgrims coming to Jerusalem from Jericho [the only route the Bible records Jesus using to enter the city] would come through this wilderness and ascend the Mount of Olives. The contrast between barren wasteland and green fertility would have provided a feast to the eyes, and perhaps symbolized the spiritual refreshment that awaited them in the city where God had put His name." But equally, this "thin green line" would emphasize to Jerusalem residents the fine line between life and death, abundance and doom, blessing and punishment, as it safeguarded Jerusalem against the Judean wilderness, called Jeshimon, meaning "devastation." The first time the mount is mentioned in the Bible is in the story of King David, weeping as he fled from his son Absalom. David crossed the Kidron Valley, topped the Mount of Olives and plunged into the devastation. While Jeshimon meant death to most people, David, having gained wilderness skills as a shepherd and honed them while a refugee from King Saul, found sanctuary and wrote many of his most beloved Psalms there. "Yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me …" (Psalm 23). "From the end of the earth I call to you when my heart is faint …" (Psalm 61). "My soul thirsts for you, my soul longs for you, in a dry and thirsty land where there is no water …" (Psalm 63). One thousand years after David, one of his descendants entered the city during Passover. Jesus was entering the city in triumph instead of exiting in disgrace, but like his forefather, Jesus wept on the Mount of Olives. "If you had known, even you, the things that make for peace …" (Luke 19). During that week Jesus taught about death and life. "I tell you the truth, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds …" (John 12). "Jesus often used the Mt. of Olives to teach his disciples about things that were to come," Gylenberg explains. During that Passover week, "the Mt. of Olives was where Jesus explained the signs of the end times, the tribulation to follow and his second coming in glory." Just days after those lessons, Jesus would face death so that others "would not perish but have everlasting life" (John 3). Jesus appeared to his followers six times during the next few weeks, each time urging them to share the life-giving gospel. The last time was on the Mount of Olives. Jesus commanded his disciples to wait in Jerusalem to receive the Holy Spirit, then to be his witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth (Acts 1). The disciples had a choice to make. They could return to the Sea of Galilee and live uneventful lives as generic fishermen, or they could return to the city to become fishers of men and probably die as martyrs. Acts 1 records that they "returned to Jerusalem from the hill called the Mount of Olives …" descending the mount through the tombs, foreshadowing their future. The Scripture and early church records document most of them went on to die for their cause: Peter, crucified upside down; Andrew, stoned/crucified; James executed by Herod Agrippa; Bartholomew, beheaded… Gylenberg concludes: "Perhaps it's significant in light of Zechariah's prophecy of the Lord's end-time victory over his enemies beginning on the Mount of Olives that Jesus chooses this location for his end-time teachings, and for his ascension. The words of the angels seem to tie the events to the prophecy: 'This Jesus, who has been taken up from you into heaven, will come in just the same way as you have watched him go'" (Acts. 1:11).

text: Mobile iPad Mini production begins, bringing it one step closer to reality October 3, 2012 7:00 AM Ricardo Bilton Gaming execs: Join 180 select leaders from King, Glu, Rovio, Unity, Facebook, and more to plan your path to global domination in 2015. GamesBeat Summit is invite-only -- apply here. Ticket prices increase on March 6 Pacific! Apple has pressed the launch button on its rumored iPad Mini. Suppliers have finally begun mass production of the smaller iPad, just two weeks before many expect Apple to announce it, sources tell the Wall Street Journal. LG and AU Optronics are the companies behind the iPad Mini's display, which will measure 7.85 inches and won't feature the high-resolution Retina display that's in the latest iPad. Previous reports said the Apple would announce the iPad Mini last month alongside the iPhone 5 , but the device never materialized. One explanation (which in retrospect we should've expected) is that Apple already had a busy event and didn't want to squeeze another device into its presentation. The current expectation is that Apple will announce the device on Oct. 10 or Oct. 17. The device would then be available in early to mid-November. "Go small or go home" is the new slogan for tablet markers, who are attempting to undercut Apple's iPad dominance by sidestepping it entirely. As much as Steve Jobs disliked the size, the 7-inch tablet offers a whole different subset of uses that a 10-inch device like the iPad can't match. And that's' why the rumors of the iPad Mini make so much sense. VentureBeat is studying social media marketing tools. Chime in, and we'll share the data with you.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Police review sparks job fears
Union says outside cost analysis will lead to layoffs of front-line officers
Front-line Winnipeg police officers are the real targets of an operational review, which is designed to slash millions of dollars from the police budget, the Winnipeg Police Association says.
WPA president Mike Sutherland said Monday the American firm hired to conduct the review of the Winnipeg Police Service has a reputation for recommending job and service cuts following a series of similar reviews it did for American cities.
Sutherland said Matrix Consulting Groups Ltd. recently recommended the dispatch centre of a Connecticut police department be replaced by a call centre and he's fearful Matrix will call for Winnipeg police officers to be laid off.
Sutherland said he believes Matrix was hired because of its reputation, which would make it easier for budget hawks on council to push police layoffs.
"This is a scenario that seems the script is already written and the outcome's already determined," Sutherland said during a news conference from the WPA offices.
Escalating police and emergency services costs have become a preoccupation for some on council, particularly former finance chairman Coun. Scott Fielding, who is now chairman of protection and community services. Last year, Fielding likened the police budget to health-care spending.
The police budget accounts for 26 per cent of Winnipeg's 2012 budget. Wage increases to police officers -- either through negotiations or imposed through binding arbitration -- have outstripped those received by all other civic employee groups.
Federal Public Safety Minister Vic Toews told a summit on the economics of policing in Ottawa Jan. 16 Canada's steadily increasing spending on policing now exceeds $12 billion annually, and that "Over the last decade, the volume and severity of reported crime have both been on the decline."
With several reviews already underway across the country to find efficiencies leading to more effective policing, Toews said, "Most Canadian police services, if they act soon, have the opportunity to get ahead of the curve and respond with well-considered strategies."
In Winnipeg, however, there appears to be no correlation between crime rates and the size of the police service and its budget. Crime rates fluctuate up and down annually, while both the WPS budget and the complement of officers increase every year.
Members of the WPS have never been subjected to layoffs.
Councillors approved the operational review in the 2012 budget and awarded it in mid-December to Matrix at a cost of $174,000. The identity of the firm was released only recently while Matrix employees were subject to a security check.
Sutherland said the police association endorsed Mayor Sam Katz's re-election bid two years ago, but he's surprised the mayor would be part of a group the WPA believes will be attacking the police service.
Sutherland said he's not opposed to subjecting the police service to an outside review, but it should be done by a Canadian firm.
Sutherland said Fielding had openly speculated at a recent committee meeting there were "multiple millions of dollars" to be trimmed from the police budget.
Sutherland said cuts of that scale can only result in job layoffs, which would mean a crippled police service that would leave the public vulnerable to dangerous and violent criminals.
However, Fielding (St. James-Brooklands) said he does not support laying off police officers. He said the city decided to launch a review during the 2012 budget process as police services account for roughly a quarter of Winnipeg's entire operating budget.
Fielding said it makes sense for the city to examine whether the police service is as efficient as it can be or whether there are ways to save money. The city is also reviewing its public works department to see whether there are places to find cost savings, he said.
"The City of Winnipeg has invested more in police services than any other jurisdiction in Canada, bar none," Fielding said.
Coun. Paula Havixbeck (Charleswood-Tuxedo) said it doesn't make sense to do a review at a time when Winnipeg has a new police chief and new police board.
Last week, Havixbeck said the head of the civilian board that governs the Peel Regional Police told members of Winnipeg council an operational review is not necessary, and is "redundant" due to the new police board oversight.
Havixbeck urged council's executive policy committee to scrap the operational review, but the committee shot down the idea
"He deserves an opportunity to show some leadership at this point," Havixbeck said of Winnipeg police Chief Devon Clunis. "Why wouldn't we give him that opportunity?"
-- with files from Jen Skerritt
In 2005, policing ($146.7 million) accounted for 20 per cent of the total city budget; today, it's 26 per cent ($242.5 million).
Between 2005 and 2013, the city's budget increased 29.5 per cent; the WPS budget increased more than double that rate, at 65.5 per cent.

Cubs' Sveum admits to sleepless nights
WASHINGTON – It was expected to be a rough season for the Chicago Cubs, which doesn't mean all the losing has been easy to take for first-year manager Dale Sveum.
"I'm not going to say I sleep perfectly every night," Sveum said. "There are definitely some sleepless nights but (I get) enough sleep, I guess. Then there are the nights you sleep a lot because you haven't slept in a while."
The Cubs entered play Thursday with a 51-85 record, ahead of only the Houston Astros (42-95) in all of baseball.
Not much has gone right this season, and when the Cubs started to play better, their roster was gutted at the non-waiver trade deadline.
The Cubs are dead last in the National League in hits, walks and on-base percentage. They are second to last in runs scored and team batting average.
In the first year of his tenure Sveum is being judged on how he is able to teach a young roster and whether or not he can get them to buy into changes vital for future success. At some point, though, wins and losses will determine his job security.
Whether that takes another year or two remains to be seen.
"I don't really dwell on when I'm going to be judged," Sveum said. "I'm just trying to be a guy that right now has to teach. You have to keep your coaching staff positive as well. It's not that easy for a staff sometimes, and understand that this is where we are and these kids are trying to survive and we have to make it easier on them to survive."
The rigors of the season appeared to show Wednesday when Sveum argued with home-plate umpire Larry Vanover because he thought Vanover was staring down the Cubs dugout. After the game he was testy when asked about Chris Volstad's struggles.
"I am a very patient guy so that's one thing I have going for me," Sveum said, "But I ain't going to lie to you, patience will only go so far too where you do snap. Usually when I do it not too many people will see it except maybe the individual (being talked to)."
