TVB's upcoming comedy drama, Inbound Troubles <老表,你好嘢!>, may face with the possibility of getting the scissor treatment in mainland China.
While promotional trailers for Inbound Troubles are being aired frequently during the commercial breaks in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia, many mainland Chinese audiences noticed that whenever a trailer for Inbound Troubles was set to run on their TVB Jade network, the trailer would be replaced with a local commercial ad. The station would resume to its normal broadcasting after the ad was over.
Many mainland Chinese TVB fans are worried that Inbound Troubles will get censored from their network on the drama's January 14 premiere date. It is assumed that Chinese stations may find Inbound Troubles inappropriate for broadcast due to its rather negative portrayal of the mainland Chinese.
Inbound Troubles stars Roger Kwok (郭晉安), a Hong Kong tour guide, and Wong Cho Lam (王祖藍), Roger's younger cousin from mainland China. The light-hearted comedy drama addresses the current souring relationship between mainland China and Hong Kong. It will feature many of Hong Kong's current social issues and problems, such as overpopulation due to Chinese immigration, Chinese maternity tourism in Hong Kong, and Hong Kong's abuse on mainland China's commercial market.
Wong Cho Lam, who also serves as the drama's scriptwriter, was shocked when he heard that Inbound Troubles may get censored in mainland. "What! This drama is all about achieving harmony and peace. Even the trailers have mentioned this! Why would it get censored?"
Wong Cho Lam does not believe that he went over the limit, and he would not alter anything in the drama, even if Inbound Troubles may be censored. "It's a comedy. I want everyone to enjoy it. Don't be so sensitive! While editing the drama, we were already very careful in avoiding the more sensitive topics. We try to make it a win-win scenario for everyone."
The drama's producer, Wong Wai Sing (黃偉聲), could not be reached for comment.

Serves you right, TVB. Don't pretend, Wong Cho Lam.
This mainland bashing is getting abit too much, starting with 'Friendly Fire' and now this, an entire drama 'devoted' on the negative topic.
It just makes HK people look so ungracious, and very aloof.
This medical tourism thingy, it's legal, it's within your law, so what's the fuss, why complain? If you want to blame anyone, blame it on your HK legislature.
They make the laws.
I am beginning to dislike and have a negative image of HK people. It will only backfire on you people to the whole world.
It won't really make us have a bad outlook on mainlanders, which is what your ill intention was when you go portraying them in negative light, time and time again..
So well said…..I totally agree with you!
It's a TV drama for god sake. Don't like it, don't watch.
People can't just focus on the positive and ignore the negative. If it didn't happen, no one will be talking about. Maybe it's a way to get the HK govt to address these issues. I'm not saying there are no alternate channels but if we have to be politically correct all the time, this world will be a boring place (and we wouldn't be talking about it…)
What's all this about 'HK people' and 'you people'. Is this sterotyping base on a TV series? Can we not distingish between fiction and real life?
Do we now label everyone the same becoz of actions of minority group?
So Western movies/dramas doesn't protrait people from other cultural backgrounds badly? Most of us can name a few movies where a person of asian background is always the 'baddies'. Why doesn't anyone say anything???
I'm an Australian and I don't agree with you. Though I accept your dissent, but I don't agree with you.
>It just makes HK people look so ungracious
What does HK have to be gracious about?
>This medical tourism thingy, it's legal, it's within your law, so what's the fuss, why complain? If you want to blame anyone, blame it on your HK legislature.
They make the laws.
It's exploitation of certain freedoms/civility endowed onto the public.
Say like, a public restroom. There aren't any laws to prevent people from bringing buckets to fill with water so they can use it at home instead of filling it with their own water. But you don't see it happening because people still have a shred of decency.
Likewise, there's no law to keep mainland mothers from giving birth in the ER, unannounced. Yet they do it.
i can understand the problem of many mainlanders,if you look yourself at the mirror and see how ugly you are then of course you dont want to see it again.
but you also can face true and try to understand why you are so ugly in the mirror.
Mainlanders will never admit they are wrong. Case in point: burning down Juscos in mainland China, which employed mainland people, throwing stones and setting fires at the Japanese embassy on mainland China soil, flipping cars of Japanese brands which (surprise) are owned by their own countrymen.
You think they stopped to think whether they should have done that stuff? Nope.
It's this childish entitlement and the idea that they can do no wrong disgusts me.
Well says…
The beating of Chinese people due to their ownership ofJapanese cars is beyond immature and ridiculous.
Indeed, someone got pulled out of his Toyota and had his legs crippled by a mob. That was insane.
It's a reflection of social issues. What's wrong with that?
I agree. These social issues should be brought to attention and hopefully the government will make some changes. I truly hope that HK citizens would get along with Mainlanders and live in harmony.
Can't agree with you more. People are going to start commenting and bashing your outspokenness . But that's okay, I'm on your side and I support you. Greetings from Canada !
I don't think it's about bashing. More about social awareness. The things mentioned in the dramas did actually happen. It's not like they were made up for the purpose of the drama.
Mainland Chinese people are trashing HK up. Making it a horrible place to live. They don't follow simple rules in public areas and public transport, they are selfish and am inconsiderate of others eg pushing in, spitting, trying to use money to pay their way through things…. Ugggggg
Like the HK people don't trash it already …. I'd say they both are.
you're probably right
Since China bans a lot of things, I am not surprised by this nor do I think it is unusual. I hope Wong Cho Lam will give us an insightful witty social commentary which talks about both China mainlanders AND HK people's quirkiness and annoying everything. Then that's a pretty fair series.
The drama is crystal clear China-bashing. They will probably give Wong Cho Lam's character a good ending, but hey, this issue can't be swept under the rug any longer.
Not it matters. Instead of thinking "oh yeah, maybe we are taking it too far and exploiting HK's good will", mainlanders will think "we own you HK, we do whatever we want, when we want".
The mainlanders are the ones buying up seats at US colleges although the children they send over mostly can not speak a coherent sentence. They may study like hell but they are not able to socialize confortably. Additionally, the new mainland immigrants who are over here in the US are on welfare because they are able to circumnavigate the system but yet work under the table for cash. WTF, I have my taxes taken out every paycheck to feed them and their medical care to include their spanish speaking cousins from Latin America as well. Damn right and OK by me if they hit on topics sensitive to China…China definitely persecutes those who speak out just like the Tibetans, Fan Lung Gong, Christians or those common citizens vocalizing against "corrupt" government officials or their policies. Unless the new Chinese leadership moderates their stance, and appease their citizens by adopting some form of democratic and equitable system in China, China bashing will continue.
"I have my taxes taken out every paycheck to feed them and their medical care to include their spanish speaking cousins from Latin America as well."
Totally understand how you feel.
I grew up in a community dominated with mainland immigrants. I can safely say all my friends' families are getting welfare and tries to lie on their apps for free lunch back in grade school and report less income now that we're in college so they would have more financial aid.
i'm not saying all mainland immigrants are like that but, in my community, 97% are.
with that said, -even in america!-, i don't blame hong kong for shedding such negative light on mainlanders.
If people know people who abuse the system, then why don't they call the Department of Social Services. Unless, there's corruption in there as well.
Regarding the show, there's nothing wrong with a satirical television programs.
The Dept of Social Services rely on taxpayers like us to keep their jobs. Without welfare cheats, illegals, and scammers, many of them will have no value added in the government and then will be part of the problem as well. It is the politicians who have created this mess for the taxpayers to deal with. Politicians get free medical care for life while the taxpayers have to pay for their even after retirement. Look at Social security which we are paying into, who is getting the bulk of the monies and look at the continued raising of the retirement age and the growing federal deficit. When your offsprings grow up, I am not sure if they will see or get social security.
Aww, poor Mainland people are getting their feelings hurt
I don't see the problem with portraying HK-China problems. I honestly doubt there will be much actual discussion, probably just having fun with the stereotypes. If China can't accept it, so be it. Don't change just because some people are sensitive.
Serve them right. One of the reasons for this xenophobia is due to the 150 years of colonial taming (the British do have a lot of experience in training dogs, horses and slavish humans), followed by 15 years of Apple Daily and an ironically "pro-democracy" medieval institution the Catholic Church (which enjoys a historical grip and brainwashing right on the school system), Many Hongkongers have fallen way below the "idiocy line".
some mainlanders if they are in hongkong must behave themself and dont act like an animal.have some respect otherwise go home.yeh its fine to be a british colony,at least freedom of speech,cant say if you are in communistic brainwashing china, idiot.
Taming, training, slavish, institution, brainwashing… Does that not ring a bell?
What a nice post.
Say, whatever happened to the Chinese recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize a few years back? Oh, that's right — he got put in f**king jail. Ah, but wait, there's more. The kicker is, his wife also got put in jail for doing nothing but be married to him.
So you know what? I don't blame you. And I don't blame your mainland brethren for ignoring your government's flaws either because you're all scared of being sent to jail.
I'd also like to refer you to some statistics:
Out of 178 nations:
HK: 54th
China: 174th
What's with all the name calling?
You think Hong Kong people were brainwashed by the British. Aren't you brainwashed by the Chinese Gov't and its school system?
If all things were portrayed 'positively', there would be no such thing as drama.
People need to get a grip. Did you guys not read the article?? This series will focus on both the positives and negatives of Hong Kongers and Mainland Chinese!!! Thats right. It will criticize hong kong as well. And do you think TVB will be so stupid to do something that would offend the mainland audience, especially as it such a lucrative market. Get over it!!!
Hong Kong is not perfect, but it is better than the mainland in terms of education, healthcare, social justice, and manners. I've come across some mainlanders who keep breaking rules and don't give a damn about it, but those are usually the older folks. I guess if we give it about another 20 years, mainlanders will become more civilized as the population becomes more educated.
Well said , Cloud !
Yeah agree ! They need time coz China just started to be modernised and more educated will help them to be civilized.
I'm actually disappointed that the trailer looks like it portrays HK's social tension in such positive light. I'd much rather see a drama series about HK-mainland relationship than a comedy about it. People need to stop being so sensitive. It's a problem that actually exist in HK. The wrong thing to do would be to hide it. Expose it, embrace it, and then try to solve it. Problems can never be solved by avoiding it.
thats just exactly the point," Problems can never be solved by avoiding it"mainlanders are used to shut their mouth due to no human rights and communistic system. if they dare to say something negative in public they would be immediately put to prison.so thats why the problems never solved.
To be honest, china keeps banning stuff doesn't make them seem very good. It just kind of shows how uptight they are and can't take a made up series for a series and movie for a movie. They have ban a few movies and books due to explicit sex i.e. lust,caution, shanghai baby but no offense i doubt there is no one in china that watches porn. Also they ban film/series that make them look bad, why can't they learn from unless the portrayal is true thats why they are all sensitive
It's just a freaking drama holy. If you don't like it, then don't watch it. No one asked you to watch it.
Mainland Chinese are also buying all our powdered milk in Australia and now we have shortages for our babies.
I was wondering why all these people were buying so much at the local pharmacy?!@#$
Go figure!!!!! Pure exploitation.
This drama is addressing what is happening in life. If you can't handle the truth then don't watch it.
Nothing wrong with a drama reflecting on real life social issues. I'm eager to watch this. I support Cho Lam! Mainland is banning way too much things! They only let people watch shows that portray a positive image of Mainland China? Sounds like brainwashing to me! Mainlanders need to open up and learn to accept criticism.
I find it funny how a simple tv show that is a comedy, not a documentry, can result in people saying its china bashing? probably 90% of people that will watch will just laugh at the story line rather then create hatred for the remaining 10% they probably have prejudice already.
I wonder if they are just overthinking it. or they know the stories are true so they don't want it to be aired?

Principal Laura Jestico with pupils at the new Diamond Academy in Thetford.
By Adam Gretton
Friday, September 7, 2012
The principal of a new academy in Thetford has pledged that the south of the town will not miss out on educational improvements after pupils returned to the new-look school.
The former Queensway Community Junior School opened its doors to pupils on Thursday as the Diamond Academy.
The transformation of the school site in Hillary Road has resulted in a revamped reception area, new facilities and students returning for the new term in new uniforms.
There are now over 20 academies in Norfolk, which have greater independence and freedom with budgets.
Principal Laura Jestico said sponsorship from Gaia Technologies meant that the school would be getting a technological investment with new computers and the introduction of Wi-Fi. The 170-pupil academy has also received new play equipment.
Mrs Jestico said it had been an intense process from applying for academy status in February and the school came out of special measures earlier this year.
The school is currently rated as "satisfactory" by Ofsted, but the management are aiming for outstanding status by the end of the academic year.
"The decision [to become an academy] was taken in the best interests of our children and there is considerable investment to the north of Thetford and we are in the south and we want to make sure they are not left behind."
"The ethos will not change. We got our best results in the summer for SATS and we are building on them. We are called Diamond Academy because diamonds are inspirational and aspirational. We can spend our budget on what we consider to be the priorities. The majority of the changes have been contracted out to Thetford companies," she said.
Mrs Jestico said pupils were consulted on the smart new green uniforms, which replace the school's previously red attire.
The transformation comes as work continues to move the two campus Thetford Academy to one site to the north of the town in September 2013. It means the former Charles Burrell High School site in Staniforth Road will become vacant.

Friday, December 18
Ford Center
Attendance: 17,774
Oklahoma City, OK (Sports Network) - Kevin Durant had a team-high 27 points to go along with six rebounds and Jeff Green finished with 19 points, as the Oklahoma City Thunder claimed a 109-98 win over the Detroit Pistons at the Ford Center.
James Harden ended with 14 points and eight assists, while Russell Westbrook chipped in 14 points and five assists for the Thunder, who regrouped from a 100-86 loss to Dallas on Wednesday and snapped a three-game slide in the process. Serge Ibaka had 12 points and five rebounds off the bench.
"Our starters were not ready to play," Thunder head coach Scott Brooks said before commending his bench players. "Serge was really good tonight and James was our best ball handler on the floor tonight."
Rodney Stuckey led all scorers with 31 points and Charlie Villanueva had 16 points and five boards for Detroit, which has dropped three in a row after winning the previous five contests.
"We haven't won on the road in a long time," the Pistons' Will Bynum said. "It's always tough on the road...We just have to come out with the same energy we have at home on the road."
Detroit led 27-24 after the opening quarter, but Oklahoma City scored seven in a row near the end of the half to go in front. Stuckey's layup with under a second remaining trimmed the Thunder's lead to 52-51 at the intermission.
Things stayed close in the third and with the game tied at 70 with just over 2 1/2 minutes to play in the quarter, Green knocked down a three-pointer. Ibaka's hook shot in the final seconds put OKC up 77-73 going to the fourth.
The Thunder then outscored Detroit 9-3 to start the fourth with Harden providing seven of the points, as the hosts were up 86-77 nearly three minutes in.
The Pistons got within 86-82 following a Villanueva hook shot and trey, but Oklahoma City ran off the next nine. Ibaka had six of the points as the Thunder went up 95-82 with 3 1/2 minutes remaining, and sealed the win at the free throw line.

Chunky Three Layer Bracelet
By: Savannah Starr
Looking for unexpected jewelry ideas? Make your own Chunky Three Layer Bracelet from Savannah Star and create your own "arm candy." This trendy bauble is perfect for any occasion and is sure to draw compliments.
- Aleene's Original Tacky Glue
- Resin shapes with pre-drilled holes
- Paper (I used red and animal print tissue paper and red hand-made paper)
- 3-D Crystal Lacquer
- Stretchy jewelry cord (for stringing bracelet)
- Instant glue (for securing knot in cord)
- Scissors
- Toothpick
- I was inspired by the big chunky red bracelet that Drew Barrymore wears in a Cover Girl print ad and knew that I could create a big chunky bracelet in my own style! For this bracelet, I used resin shapes for the base. I love these resin pieces because they are pre-drilled which makes it easier to string. The first step to cut a piece of tissue paper larger than the shape so that it will wrap around both sides and ends.
- Next, apply Aleene's Tacky Glue to the top of the shape.
- I like to use my finger to spread out the Tacky Glue. You want to be sure you have a smooth thin coat of glue on top, bottom, ends and sides.
- Lay the shape glued side down onto the wrong side of tissue paper. Use your scissors to cut straight in on both sides at each end. Wrap the sides around and press into the glue. Add more glue where tissue overlaps.
- Use scissors to cut away tissues from the sides leaving enough to cover the edge. Apply more glue if needed and glue the tissue to the sides.
- If you are left with an area on the back of the shape that does not have tissue, just cut a small piece and glue in place. You should now have a shape that is completely covered in tissue. Repeat with various colors of tissue and set all aside to dry.
- To get the glossy look, I apply the 3D glaze to the top of the shape by squeezing directly from the bottle. Repeat for each piece and set aside to dry undisturbed overnight.
- For an added dimension on my pieces, I also cut cardboard to various shapes, covered them in tissue and 3D glaze and glued them in place over the resin pieces. You will also need to use a toothpick to poke holes in the tissue paper to open up the stringing holes that are covered by the tissue.Arrange your pieces on your work surface to determine pattern for your bracelet. Next, measure wrist to determine desired length of bracelet. Be sure to add about 6″ extra to each piece to allow for tying and knotting the ends and to be sure that the bracelet fits over your wrist and fits comfortable on your arm. Also, you may want to add beads in between the pieces, so add extra for that too!
- I created several large triangle pieces for my bracelet which glue over the three rows of the bracelet. Here I am checking out placement. After I have tied my bracelets together in the next step, then I glue these in place with Aleene's Tacky Glue. This gives me the opportunity to give more spacing between each bracelet if I want that. I found that I really wanted to try the bracelet on first, see how it fit and then I glued these on the finished bracelet.
- If you have ever used stretch cord before, you know that when you knot it, you need to add a dab of instant glue to the knot so that the knot will hold. Let that glue dry completely and then cut off the excess ends.
- Here I am wearing my new triple chunky bracelet :) I LOVE it!

So for a recent assignment in AP English, I wrote an essay describing the word orientation, which is so amazingly ironic. Basically our assignment was to explain society's definition for a word, and then explain what the actual definition is, at least from our perspective. I didn't come out in a straightforward way in the essay (I didn't think it would improve the essay in any way and it would be a distraction from the topic), although I really wanted to. So here it is. My definition essay for the word orientation.
Orientation. Small-town Christian families shy away from its implications during quiet Sunday dinners. Conservative politicians condemn the supposedly abnormal and perverse side of it. The negativity society has poured into the word has claimed one teenage life too many. When we consider the definition of orientation, gay pride parades and fashionable, flamboyant men instantly come to mind. Over time society has molded the term orientation to a synonym for sexuality. Although this is technically a correct definition for the word, orientation can be applied to a variety of concepts.
Yes, orientation can correctly be taken in the sexual sense. But what's with the condemnation, the judgments, the controversy? It seems that society has created a chain of words—orientation equals sexuality which equals homosexuality. Therefore, by societal standards, orientation indirectly equals homosexuality. That's the equation that people immediately turn to. Fair enough, I suppose. Why is everyone so afraid of the word orientation, though? People seem embarrassed, angered, or even frightened when orientation is thrown into the conversation.
There's no reason to the widespread disapproval of orientation, even if we're talking about its insinuation of homosexuality. Being gay is not a mental perversion, and it's not a crime against humanity. The stigma shrouding the term orientation is completely unnecessary. There should be no shame, no anger, no embarrassment. It doesn't matter how many biblical scriptures we arm ourselves with, or how unnatural and disgusting we label it. Homosexuality harms no one, and after all, love comes in many forms. I could go into an extensive, deeply personal rant about the injustices of homophobia, but I think I'll stop there.
Society should learn to pry apart orientation and sexuality, because orientation can pertain to more than sexuality. Orientation is a bit more general than sexuality—it is the groups or ideas that one chooses to associate oneself with. Prime examples of this are religious orientation and cultural orientation. The verb form of orientation is orient, which means to adjust or position. Ultimately, orientation can define who we are as individuals. We orient ourselves religiously, culturally, racially, and personally, usually to conform to a predetermined set of ideas and societal principles. After all, our identities are not formed by self-images or deep self-reflections—they are determined by the way others view us. Thus, we must orient ourselves to the aforementioned principles and ideas of society. And that is what orientation is—the way we choose to be seen by others through the following of groups or ideas.
Society staples orientation to sexuality and has transformed it into a word of controversy, but that's not the only purpose of the word. Even when applied to sexuality, orientation should not be an origin of hatred or negativity. Orientation ultimately leads to our identities, and it defines who we are. It's how we position ourselves in society, the things we choose to follow.
Old eassy on Homophobia & Homosexuality Knocking around on my computer somewhere from S4 RMPS I guess i could put it up if you want?
i only drink irn bru and the occassional blood of my enemies
If you want to do that, go for it. That's not my decision. I was just sharing this essay because I was proud of it and I got a really high grade on it from a super picky teacher.
good for you though good mark i only got a good mark because of the subject not the paper
i only drink irn bru and the occassional blood of my enemies
I like it. I think it's absolutely silly that society has the ability to take simple words and work them into a specific area of meaning. Orientation is where you are in relation to anything else. Yet that's not what people think when they hear it.
But who am I to complain about society? I live in it. I contribute. It's sad, really. But it is what it is.
You'd be surprised at how many words society has twisted to mean something specific. We had a whole conversation about it in English. Like the word discrimination, for example. Everyone instantly thinks of racial prejudice when the word discrimination pops up. But it also means to categorize or classify, to tell things apart.
It's kinda crazy how many words we can twist to mean certain things.
Oh I know. We had a whole unit on it during Anthropology last semester. It was fascinating. You can go other places in the world and they don't have the same associations that we do, but they have them too. Not even that, but there are cultures that take a simple thing (well, something that we would perceive as simple) and shape their lives around it. As a race we associate assign things specific meanings, whether it be words or objects. Because that's what's convenient. The whole system is lazy, if you ask me.
The first thing I think of 'orientation' meaning is just 'position in space.' I picture an object, and hold it in different orientations - vertically, diagonally, upside-down - to see what it looks like from all angles. In my mind. And then if for whatever reason (like this essay) I have to keep thinking about the word 'orientation,' gayness comes up somewhere in my thoughts... And drifting between gayness and space the word 'orienteering' forgets that it's not the same word as 'orientation' and I think about compasses too.
So I guess what I'm trying to say is that in my mind (and I'm queer!), 'orientation' isn't synonymous with 'homosexuality.'
Nice essay, though.
Orientation can be synonymous with sexuality, because over the years society has made it that way. That was the whole purpose of the essay-- to explain what society's definition for a word is, and then provide an alternative definition. I really don't know how it came to be that people think of sexuality when they see the word orientation, but that's how we've taken it.
It'd be an interesting thing to research; who started throwing sexuality into orientation, when that isn't even the original meaning of the word?

Time nears for Cochecho Arts Fest
Tuesday, June 24, 2014

The Colorado Movie Massacre and Gun Control … J. D. Longstreet
J.D. Longstreet | July 21, 2012
The Colorado Movie Massacre and Gun Control
A Commentary by J. D. Longstreet
At the risk of seeming insensitive to the deaths in the Colorado movie massacre, I am going to point out the obvious, which may make us flinch.
As horrible as the massacre in that movie theater was, it was only the latest incident of its kind and, believe it or not, will soon dim as even worse acts of man's inhumanity to man continues.
Bodies are stacking up like cord wood around the world. and, frankly, that is nothing new. Since Cain and Able, man has sought the death of his fellowman. We seem to be hard-wired to take our brother's life. (Told you it might make you flinch.)
It is within every man to take another's life. The threshold for homicide may, indeed, be higher or lower for each person, but, it is most certainly present in all of us.
Decades ago America made a conscious decision to allow the mentally ill to reside among us rather than segregate them into isolated communities where they could be cared for, treated, and kept from situations that might trigger aggressive, even lethal responses from a mind unable to manage stimuli in the way the "normal" mind does.
We decided -- as a society -- that the mentally ill had civil rights and locking them away for their safety -- and ours -- might infringe upon or even violate those rights.
In doing so, we lit a slow fuse on a powder keg and then we turned our backs, refusing to acknowledge that at some future point, that keg was going to blow.
Frankly, I believe we have been lucky, so far, that occurrences such as the movie massacre have been as few in number as they have been -- so far.
Our cities are filled with mentally ill homeless people aimlessly wandering the streets and alleys. It seems to me that a truly caring society, a charitable society, would see that those people were placed in an environment in which they could be treated and cared for and kept safe -- and we could be kept safe from them.
And then we have the functioning mentally ill some of whom, themselves, are time bombs of violence just waiting for someone, or some thing, to set the explosion off.
Let me be clear: I have absolutely no idea if the movie massacre could have been prevented. None. But, I think it is a safe bet that such events in the future can reasonably be expected and -- we as a society aren't doing nearly enough to find and treat the mentally ill among us and when necessary -- for their safety and ours -- place them in institutions capable of caring for them.
Again, let me be clear: If we do not reevaluate our handling of the mentally ill in America, we WILL be faced with many, many, similar incidents as the Colorado movie massacre.
Now. There is no doubt, GUN CONTROL will be the next big issue before America. The mainstream Media has already shown us its intention of wallowing in the gory and vivid detail of the seventy-one people shot in that theater and the twelve who died. America's attention will be turned to the tools the killer used -- not the killer. The advocates of gun control were already out in force within hours of the deadly incident.
That is, in my opinion, flat out wrong -- but -- that will not deter the gun control enthusiasts in America from using the murderous incident to further their goal of disarming America.
In fact, the campaign has already begun. The political left is infamous for not allowing a crisis to go to waste.
In the days and weeks, and, yes, even months ahead, the American people will be bombarded with propaganda from gun control advocates across America many who are employed by the Mainstream Media. Believe me, the political left in America will not let this go before they wring every drop of leverage for their agenda as is humanly possible.
We can expect movement in the Congress, especially the US Senate, as gun control advocates, including the President and our Secretary of State, beat the drum for Senate ratification of the UN Small Arms Treaty, which will, without doubt, affect the second amendment rights of every American.
While our thoughts and prayers are with the families of the victims of the Colorado movie massacre, we must not allow ourselves to curtail our own freedom while we are in the throws of a deeply emotional occurrence and we must shield ourselves from the Mainstream Media's insensitive and relentless campaign to lead America down a path she does not want to go while she is blinded by grief and horror.

Renault R30 - F-duct system 29 August 2010
In Belgium, Renault were the latest team to introduce their version of McLaren's innovative F-duct system. It has worked well over the course of the weekend, helping the car achieve very competitive straight-line speeds on Spa's long straights, with some estimating it to be worth over 0.5s of lap time at the Belgian circuit. The air directs on to the main section of the wing, not the flap, and is activated by the driver's left hand.

Real Zaragoza have confirmed that they have brought in former Celta Vigo man Paco Herrera as their new Coach.
Relegated from the Primera Division last season, the Aragonese outfit were in talks with Manolo Jimenez to negotiate his departure from the bench.
On from confirming that resolution earlier this week, the club have now reported that former Celta Vigo Coach Herrera has been brought in as his replacement.
Herrera successfully navigated Celta out of the Segunda Division in 2011-12, but was sacked by the Balaidos outfit in February with the club 18th in La Liga.
Zaragoza is the 59-year-old former Liverpool assistant manager's 11th different club of his coaching career.

Who Supplies My Electricity
We usually see "Who Supplies My Electricity" being asked when someone has just moved home, or is just about to. If that's the case, then you are in an ideal position! It doesn't really matter who currently provides electricity to the house as you can organise a change straight away.
We are an independent broker for energy, telephones, broadband, and can even save you money on your shopping! To find out how, simply send us a quick message on the contact form. We'll even save you money by phoning you back!!
If you are renting a property, then...
Tenants are generally responsible for the utility bills and a problem that new tenants often have is finding out who supplies their gas and electric. First check with your letting agent or Landlord to see if they have the details on file although the previous tenants may have changed suppliers without letting anyone know. Don't be worried about asking either. Lettings agents often comment that they are asked who the electricity supplier is regularly by new tenants moving in, so they'll be ready with the right information for you.
If the previous tenant has informed the utility companies that they have left, then this should automatically generate a letter to the property addressed to "The New Occupier". This will confirm details of who the current supplier is and ask you to provide your details for the new account.
If after you have been at the property for a couple of weeks you still haven't received anything through the post, you should try and find out who your supplier is by other means.
The 'M Number Enquiry Line' (formerly Transco) provides Gas consumers with a dedicated telephone number to establish who is the current registered gas supplier at their premises. The M Number Enquiry Line number is 0870 608 1524.
Who Supplies My Electricity
You can find out who your electricity supplier is by contacting your local electricity distribution company. You should ask for their Meter Point Administration Service (MPAS). If you are not sure who the company is, contact Energywatch
The most important thing to remember is to take the meter readings as soon as you move in. If you have a camera handy use this to confirm your reading in case there is any dispute later. If it is in a locked box you will need to pop down to the local plumber's merchants to buy a key; they are a standard fit.
Do I Have To Stay With These Suppliers?
No you don't. When you move in, your energy supply will be under a "deemed contract" which means the energy companies that supplied the previous occupants' gas and electricity will automatically supply yours.
However, they may not be the best suppliers for your circumstances and you are free to switch to other suppliers if you wish. When you move into a new home you should make it a priority to compare energy tariffs to ensure you get the best deal.
How Do I Switch?
Switching energy suppliers is easy. First you need to find the best tariff for you, which you can do using our energy calculator. Simply send your contact details through to us using the contact form and we'll call you back. When you send a copy of your most recent bill, or give us information about your expected usage, we will work out which will be the best tariff for you to be on from our panel of energy providers.
Is Switching Easy?
If you are looking to switch, the first thing a lot of customers do is compare each energy supplier in their area and find out which one offers the most suitable and affordable tariff for their postcode and energy usage.
Remember energy prices vary depending on where you live and how much energy you use. This can be quite a daunting and tedious task.
The best way to save all of the heartache and to cvut to the chase is to use our service. Some of our providers have set guarantees in place where they have GUARANTEES to be cheaper than their competition. Once you send us details of your most current bill or expected usage we can suggest which company to move to and we will initiate the transfer for you. All of this and we don't charge you a fee!!
Once you have chosen a new deal and provided a few personal details, your new energy supplier will contact your old provider on your behalf and notify you of the date when your switch will take place.
Who Supplies My Electricity?
Check out our handy hints and tips below...
Quick Facts
- There are over 18 energy companies supplying the UK.
- There are some electricity-only companies, but most offer both electricity and gas
- Electricity is metered and you pay only for the units you use.
- Electricity rates differ across the different providers
- You can switch your electricity supplier at any time if you wish and lots of competition means switching could mean savings for you.
The Pros and Cons of Pre-Payment Meters
Pre-payment meters are a great way to budget. They're also very reliable.
A pre-payment meter has several advantages:
- Its a handy way to budget for gas and electricity - no worries about bills arriving later.
- It offers you an emergency credit facility if you are unable to buy credit straight away.
- It allows you to stay on supply while repaying any money owed.
Pre-payment meters have some possible disadvantages too; but these needn't be a problem if you check your meter regularly, and plan in advance.
- You need to make sure you can easily visit a charging point or token outlet whenever you need to buy credit for your electricity or gas meter, otherwise you may go off supply.
- You'll need to make sure you have enough credit on your meter if you go away from home. Even when you're not there, your meter will still be charging for any appliances you normally leave on, such as fridges and freezers, or your hot water.
- Remember too that you'll usually have to buy more credit for your gas meter during the winter months, when you use more energy.
What About Business Electricity
UK Businesses should compare the market for the best electricity prices by supplier at least once a year to find the cheapest electricity supplier. Not only to get cheaper electricity but also to avoid getting tied to business energy contracts with high prices. Getting the best business electricity prices per kWh requires a comparison of all the suppliers and contracts.
We compared UK businesses and found companies were being charged up to three times the rate per unit of others by their business energy supplier. Switching gas and electricity supplier to cheaper electricity and gas rates and getting the cheapest prices is one of the best ways to reduce costs.

text: The pre school education system in India was studied to check if it was friendly enough for differently abled preschoolers. The following game has been designed to help children understand , & remember basic spellings. Basic blends [2 or more letters come together to form a sound egs :ap -cap,nap) have been used where blends with the vowel A are on a rotating dial & there are visual ,sound & tactile clues for the child to make spellings using those blends. The child rolls a pyramid[4 sides of a tetrahedron with clues] & accordingly has to choose either a VISUAL CARD[ with a picture of what the word means ,egs ; a cat as in C+ AT] , SOUND CARD [ the teacher conducting the game will pick up a sound card & spell out the word loud & clear for the kids to guess] , BLINDFOLD [where the kid is given any alphabet & he/she has to guess it just by touching its contours blindfolded i.e tactile approach to help associate the form of the alphabet with its sound] or FLUKE where no clue is needed & the child can try to create a spelling just by looking at the leftover spaces around the dial and guessing. The rotating dial for the blends help the children create spellings by turning as per which letter they place where. All the alphabet pieces are aligned in the same manner with an inner groove on their left hand side, which fits like a puzzle piece on the base of the dial. This helps avoid confusion with letters like M or W , I or H ,etc. It further strengthens the letter's recall value in terms of its shape. This game has been designed after researching on special needs education , consulting psychologists & special needs teachers in India & understanding the problems faced by children with learning disabilities & children in general of the age group of 5 - 8 years. It has been designed to teach English as a subject. The sound cards also have clues in Hindi what one says is what one writes in hindi , therefore it avoids confusion in pronounciations. The prototype is made in mountboard but the actual game will have plastic , injection moulded pieces to add to visual appeal & to make it child - friendly.

A survival kit and a get-away kit may have many similar items in but they perform very different tasks. A get-away kit is something you have that will allow you time to support and look after your pets in the heat of the moment and hopefully not place you or your animal in any further danger.A get-away kit should be a grab and run item. Close to the door or can you accessible should the house not in able to be entered.Your get-away kit should include:
In evacuation emergencies such as the New Orleans floods, victims were unable to evacuate with their beloved pets and many choose to remain behind with their animals. If you have to leave without taking your pet it is essential the animal is micro-chipped. As it will be a lot easier to locate when you return.The recent Christchurch earthquake had a very success relocation rate for animals that were micro-chipped.Have a planIf you have a plan the chances are you won't be in the situation many found themselves in the New Orleans floods. You would have evacuated early enough or been prepared for dealing with your animals.We want you to take your pet with you should you have to leave your home or the area. Your pet cannot survive without you and you may not be able to return to your property for several days.The main thing is if there is time and warnings given please heed the warnings.Pet Disaster Survival KitShould you have to leave or are in a situation where basis services of water, power and food are unavailable you need to be prepared. This is where a survival kit comes in handy. You may not be in a position to get it during the initial emergency but maybe able to secure it afterwards and may be the difference in the survival of your pet.
Above all, make sure you and your family are safe but always remember your pets, they deserve your attention too.

New Vatican album: Can Pope Benedict sing?
(Read article summary)Pope Benedict stars on a new Vatican CD featuring a hymn sung by the pontiff. Will the album soften his image?
Alessandro Bianchi/Reuters
Move over, Snoop Dogg?
As an white-haired octogenarian bachelor from a scholarly background, he hardly fits the profile of the first-time music artist.
But that has not stopped Pope Benedict XVI from launching his debut album – an eight-track CD of Gregorian chants and specially commissioned classical music on which he sings a hymn and recites prayers in five languages, including Latin and his mother tongue, German.
The album, called "Alma Mater - Music from the Vatican," will be released on Nov. 30, in time for the pre-Christmas shopping rush.
It has been produced by the Geffen record company, putting the Pontiff in the unlikely company of the label's other artists, such as Snoop Dogg, Nirvana, and Guns 'N Roses.
The question is: Can Benedict carry a tune?
"I have known six popes. Not one of them sings and knows music as he does," said Monsignor Pablo Colino, the conductor of the choir of St. Peter's Basilica at the Vatican, which provided the choral backdrop to the papal pipes.
In 1999, a similar album was produced using archival recordings of Pope John Paul II singing, chanting, and praying in five languages.
Benedict has a copy of the new album but has not yet said what he thinks of it, Father Federico Lombardi, the Vatican's official spokesman, told a packed press conference Tuesday in Rome.
The album may help the German-born Benedict soften his stiff, standoffish image.
Nicknamed "God's Rottweiler" for his conservative views when he was first made pope in 2005, he has struggled to win the levels of popularity enjoyed by his much-loved predecessor, Pope John Paul II.
"The pope is open to new ways of evangelization ... to experiment with new ways to transmit a spiritual message that the world greatly needs," said Father Lombardi.

The ACES Plan will contribute $500 into the Registered Education Savings Plan (RESP) of every child born to Alberta residents in 2005 and later. As well, grants of $100 are available to children of Alberta residents when they turn 8, 11 and 14 in 2005 and later, provided that the children are attending school.
In order for beneficiaries to receive the best return on investment, grant applications should be made as soon as the child turns each of the ages noted above.

Box CEO Aaron Levie said Salem will work closely with Box's executive team, its global network of customers, and partner ecosystem "to innovate and advance a new model for cloud security."
Levie noted in a blog post that the rapid adoption of smartphones and tablets in the workplace, along with cloud storage to access information from virtually has left enterprise facing "a tremendous shift in information security."
He said a new approach to traditional security models is needed.
"It's one that entrusts users to access their information from anywhere. It's one whose content policies transcend networks and instead follow the data. And it's one that allows employees to use the best applications available to them, and not be held back by tired and broken systems."
(Tablet deployment and security issues will be a key focus at the Tablet Strategy conference coming to New York May 6, 2014)

The Modeling Scientist will have the opportunity to research, design, and implement models that pull signal from a variety of data sets with varying attributes. The quality of data will vary from robust and broad to sparse and accurate. Alone these data sets have very little value, but when stitched together they act as a tuning fork that finds precision in a swarm of noise.
Placed is looking for a Modeling Scientist who is excited about this greenfield opportunity to apply both their professional experience and advanced education to solve this problem at hand. This candidate should have a history of working with disparate data sources to stitch together precise results in an academic production environment.
Why Early Stage Startups – You want to do more than contribute, you want to drive innovation. Rather than inherit code, you want to build it from the ground up. Early stage startups empower individuals to see their work directly impact the success of the business.
Why This Startup – Rising tides lift all ships, and in the case of mobile the tide is just starting to come in. In Q4 of 2010 smartphones outsold PCs for the first time ever, and all projections state that trend is here to stay. This translates to disruptive opportunity to challenge entrenched incumbents on the Web who haven't yet established themselves in the mobile space.
Who Are We Looking For – Requirements are listed below, but just as important is the mindset of each perspective employee. We're looking for people who want to build something, and own it.
Here is the type of person that we are looking to hire:
- Excited about the opportunity to define a new sector in the mobile space
- Embraces the opportunity to tackle problems others haven't
- Creativity and ambition to dive into a problem versus waiting for others to lead
- People who aren't happy with good, and build to great
- Advanced degree in Computer Science, Statistics, Mathematics, or related field
- Direct experience with Machine Learning and Data Mining algorithms to find signal across noisy data sets
- At least 2 years (recent) programming experience in a production environment
- Strong Java skills and experience working in a Linux environment
- Proficiency in at least one scripting languages, such as Ruby, Perl or Python
Ideally Experienced With:
- Database experience (SQL)
- Hadoop and MapReduce
- Web and Mobile Development Experiences
- Information Visualization

Where Should I Go For Steak Tonight?
So I'm in the market for a steak tonight. Just me and the First lady. Now the last couple times we've gone out for steak we've gone to KO Prime. I got nothing bad to say about the joint. Great steak and mash potatoes that will literally make you cum on the spot. But we wanted to maybe get crazy tonight and switch it up. So I'm curious what the Stoolies think the best steak house in Boston is. And I guess I should qualify that I'm looking for a date type place. Or at least a place we can talk. Like last time I went to the capital grille it was so fucking loud you couldn't hear yourself think. Every asshole in the place was in a full suit talking business. By the end of the night I was screaming at the First Lady about our stock market portfolio and we don't even have one. I've never been to Smith and Lewinski's in Boston but heard it sucks. Oak Room is awesome but too stuffy. I'm a fan of Ruth Chris and that is in the mix. We've heard about this place called Moo or some shit like that. So basically if anybody has any info lay it on me. Daddy needs to eat.

In August 2005, the unemployment rate for veterans of the U.S. Armed Forces was 3.9 percent. The rate for nonveterans was 4.7 percent.
The unemployment rate of male veterans (3.7 percent) was little different from the rate of nonveterans (4.4 percent) in August 2005. Among men 18 to 24 years old, however, veterans had a higher jobless rate than nonveterans (17.2 versus 10.4 percent).
The unemployment rate of female veterans (5.9 percent) was about the same as that for nonveterans (5.0 percent).
The Current Population Survey is the source of these data. To learn more, see Employment Situation of Veterans: August 2005 (PDF) (TXT), USDL 06-897. The survey of veterans was conducted for the Bureau of Labor Statistics by the U.S. Census Bureau as a special supplement to the August 2005 Current Population Survey. The 2005 supplement was co-sponsored by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and the U.S. Department of Labor's Veterans Employment and Training Service. These supplements have been conducted every two years since 1985.

Allstate Offers Preparation Tips For Winter Storm Athena Approaching Northeast
NORTHBROOK, Ill.,
Nov. 7, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Athena is approaching the Northeast, as residents are just beginning to recover from Sandy. Allstate recommends residents listen to instructions from local authorities and take appropriate steps to prepare for the next storm.
Allstate Insurance has set up Mobile Claims Centers to help policyholders in East Coast markets following Sandy. These self-contained motor coaches are equipped with generators, satellite technology and high-speed internet connectivity so Allstate's National Catastrophe Team can set up temporary claim locations and provide policyholders claim support in areas hardest hit by a storm. With the coming storm in mind, Allstate will adjust the deployment of its mobile claim centers and personnel on the ground as conditions require.
Claims personnel are also available 24/7. Allstate customers who suffered damage can call 1-800-54-STORM (800-457-8676), go online to http://www.allstate.com/claims/report-claim.aspx or contact their agent to file a claim or receive additional information about the claims process.
Once it is safe, Allstate Insurance recommends residents carefully inspect their homes and vehicles for damage.
If possible, Allstate recommends homeowners follow these easy tips now that can make the recovery process easier on you and your family. Before you leave...- Collect all your important papers and documents. This includes bank and financial information, as well as your bills and checkbooks.
- Some coastal homeowners may have their insurance for wind and flood with a different insurance company than their primary homeowners insurance policy. Make sure to gather all of your insurance information, like homeowners, flood, wind and auto insurance carriers and policy numbers, so you are able to initiate a possible claim with the appropriate carrier quickly after the storm.
- Think carefully about what items are easily replaceable by insurance and what items are not, like family heirlooms, keepsakes and pictures
- Review your homeowners insurance policy to determine whether it provides for additional living expenses when you are prohibited from using your home because of civil authority orders.
- Contact your agent with any questions.
- Review your auto policy to determine whether you have coverage for flying objects or rising water. Contact your agent with any questions.
- Respect local authorities and law enforcement decisions on when to evacuate and when it is safe to return home.
- Tell your neighbors where you will be going and exchange contact information.

After the album releasing of Magna Carta Holy Grail, Jay Z took the time out to inform the public on why he decided to give up his share of the Brooklyn Nets and become and sports agent. His reasons serve a much greater purpose and also gives him another challenge to take on.
"I think my job was done as far as the Nets," Jay-Z said. "They got to Brooklyn. I played my part in that, even the whole look and design and the attitude of the Brooklyn Nets.Jay Z talked about the things he wants to change in the industry that goes beyond the contracts signed.
"If you look at the statistics most athletes go broke in three or four years.At least just our presence to get all those agents off their ass and let them get up and get to work because those guys were just signing contracts and going home saying, '10 year contracts, I'm getting paid every year I don't have to do anything,'" he said. "It was a travesty. They're just watching guys go broke after four years and these guys don't even care about their well being. This is egregious. It's a terrible thing going on and no one is saying anything."
"They're signing $80, $90, $100 million contracts and you are going broke? That's just terrible management. I'm not letting these guys getting taken advantage of and I know it's going on and I'm not going to say anything or help them. I have this influence, what am I going to do with it? I have to use it."Jay Z's influence is so strong, Kevin Durant left his agent to be under Jay Z. He also signed star baseball player Robinson Cano, Skylar Diggins from the Tulsa Shock, highly anticipated Geno Smith and maybe on his way to signing Victor Cruz. Of course Jay Z has major help. Roc Nation sports co-partners with CAA, who has negotiated more than $1.1 billion in baseball contracts with a guaranteed $50 million or more. These heavyweight companies teaming up will give athletes more endorsement opportunities and possibly more money in future contracts.
As far as the Nets, Jay is done as an owner of the team but still own a share of the Barclays Center and is also a member of the board of directors for the arena. So you will still see Jay Z at the Nets games right next to the bench..
Here's the video for more insight.

by John Pollard Custom-built bass for your vehicle Are you disappointed with the level of bass your factory system provides, but don't like the idea of installing a universal subwoofer and wiring kit? The Soundgate SubStage powered subs by Kicker are made to fit in specific vehicles, so you get harnesses that connect to your factory wiring, and a sub that's made to mount where your particular vehicle has space. Each system comes with vehicle-specific instructions that guide you every step of the way. The package also includes all of the wiring and hardware you need to complete the installation — that means no running to the hardware store to find a part that you didn't know you'd need. Ready to rumble The SubStage doesn't skimp on power and performance — it comes equipped with a 10" sub powered by a perfectly matched 200-watt amp, all housed in a custom enclosure that's optimized for sound quality. You'll look forward to rumbling lows that can play back the biggest digital drum beat yet also deliver the low-frequency subtleties of a standup bass. Kicker's earned their reputation for making subs that crank out bass you can feel and the SubStage is no exception. The SubStage SSICRE07 fits the 2007-up Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra Crew Cab, and the subwoofer installs under the passenger's side of the rear seat. This kit will not install in 2007 Classic models. It connects to the factory stereo via two wire taps for signal, and attaches to the battery for power. Please identify your car before purchasing to make sure it'll work with this package, or you can call one of our Advisors at 1-888-955-6000 to confirm fit.

Say what? Instead of the usual sub in a box, the manufacturer creates a molded enclosure that fits perfectly into a convenient spot in your specific vehicle, housing a high-quality sub. Some enclosures even include a built-in amp, for the ultimate in stealth bass. The advantages? You don't lose much space (if any), your sub is perfectly matched to its enclosure, and your enclosure has a factory look that won't tell potential thieves you have an awesome sound system. Doesn't get better than that.
Sound gate Sounds Great!!! Written By jirvan, Bartlet TN on Sunday, April 27, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I did quite a bit of research before I settled on the purchase of the Soundgate. I wanted to bring my stock radio to life and the Sound gate does exactly that. It has its own built in Amp and adds enough kick to make my stock system sound better than and factory premium system. I also added a set of Alpine 3-way speakers to replace my factory door speakers. Wow! It could not have turned out any better! The Soundgate mounted convieniently under the back seat of my truck so it's completely out of the way and bolted down so there's no annoying vibration at all. Just full rich bass tone. A great purchase! Pros: The built in amp and made to fit my truck. Cons: The price is a little on the high side but Crutchfield as always had the best price I found.

Great Item And Kicker Quality Written By Scott G, Emporium Pa on Sunday, May 05, 2013 I was looking to add some more base to my factory Bose system, after much research both online and on Youtube I gave this a try. It was easy to install and the quality is second to none. I could not believe the amount of base that this unit added. You cant go wrong with this and is wroth the cost. Pros: Amount of added base and ease of install and quality. Cons: None
