Collapse of RM Williams Agricultural could cost News Corp and ACCC chair Rod Sims
PUBLISHED: 01 Jul 2013 10:04:07 | UPDATED: 02 Jul 2013 10:37:26PRINT EDITION: 01 Jul 2013On the horns of a dilemma: RM Williams Agricultural collapse could cost both News Corp and competition czar Rod Sims plenty. Photo: Marco Del Grande
Matthew Cranston
News Corp shareholders and Australian Competition and Consumer Commission chairman Rod Sims are at risk of losing millions, after RM Williams Agricultural appointed receivers.
Westpac Banking Corp, which is believed to be owed about $60 million, appointed PPB Advisory partners Stephen Parbery and Mark Robinson as receivers and managers, at the request of the board.
RM Williams Agricultural Holdings was set up by former News Limited director Ken Cowley and the largest single shareholder is a News Corp subsidiary.
The company, famed for splashing out $72 million to buy a Northern Territory cattle station at the top of the boom in 2007, received a grant from federal Environment Minister Tony Burke to build the world's biggest carbon farm.
The Australian Financial Review revealed in 2011 that News Limited had invested $30 million in the company alongside Sims, who invested more than $1 million.
"I have been registered with the company as a seller trying to sell my interest," Sims told the AFR over the weekend. "However, I do not want to be making passing comments on a company that is in difficult circumstances."
A Westpac spokesman said: "We have appointed receivers who will now undertake a review of the business."
The directors of RM Williams Agricultural Holdings have been attempting to raise capital but have so far failed to attract new equity.
In a statement, Parbery said the directors requested its bankers appoint PPB Advisory as receivers and managers of the parent entity.
The subsidiaries are operating as going concerns. Parbery emphasised that PPB Advisory's appointment was in no way related to the RM Williams retail fashion business.

Here's a list of writing jobs and pay rates for freelance writers. I earned $35,000 my first year of full-time freelance writing, which surprised me. I thought I'd be relying on my husband for financial support, but I had no problems making money freelancing.
The Writer's Market books are an excellent source of strategies and help for freelance writers. They list the current freelance writing pay rates – in fact, the writing jobs and pay rates below are from the current edition. Note that this article was written in 2010; to get updated freelance writing pay rates, you need to check out the 2014 edition. The 2015 Writer's Market: The Most Trusted Guide to Getting Published is available in August.
"If you're a beginning freelance writer, or don't know many other freelancers, you may wonder how anyone manages to earn enough to eat and pay the rent by writing," writes Lynn Wasnak in Writer's Market. "Yet, smart full-time freelance writers and editors annually earn $35,000 and up – sometimes into the $150,000-200,000 range."
Part of my own success as a freelance writer is because of Writer's Market. I read every new edition, and I know what the current freelance writing pay rates are. If you want to write, never stop reading and learning – no matter how experienced you get!
Freelance Writing Pay Rates
Here's what the professional freelance writers say about writing jobs and rates for magazines and newspapers. Some writers charge by the hour (I charge $50/hour).
In Writer's Market, Wasnak suggests a formula for figuring out your hourly rate:
"Begin by choosing your target annual income – whether it's $25,000 or $100,000. Add in fixed expenses: social security, taxes, and office supplies. Don't forget health insurance and something for your retirement. Once you've determined your annual gross target, divide it by 1,000 billable hours – about 21 hours per week – to determine your target hourly rate."
Freelance writers, I encourage you to take your experience and education into account before setting your goals for earning money as a freelance writer. That is, a new freelancer can't charge as much for writing jobs as a freelancer who's been writing for five or fifteen years.
Writing Rates for Magazine and Trade Journals
- Article feature writing: $40-$122 per hour, or $.20-3 per word
- Reprint articles: $20-$1,500 per project, or $.10-1.50 per word
- Magazine column: $75-$2,500 per project, or $.37-2.50 per word
- Ghostwriting articles: $30-$200 per hour, or $.60-10 per word
- Arts review: $60-$95 per hour, or $.08-1.20 per word
- Book reviews: $25-$900 per project, or $.15-1.50 per word
- Rewriting: $20-125 per hour, or $50 per page
- Content editing: $25-125 per hour, or $.06-.16 per word
Writing Rates for Newspapers
- Article feature writing: $40-$79 per hour, or .10-$1.60 per word
- Local column: .38-$1 per word; $25-$600 per project
- Self-syndicated column: $4-$35 per insertion
- Investigative Reporting: $2,250-$10,000 per grant
- Proofreading: $15-$45 per hour
- Arts review: $30-$69 per hour, or $.06-.60 per word
- Book reviews: $45-$69 per hour, or $.25-.60 per word
- Obituary copy: $35-$225 per project
These writing jobs and rates are compiled from voluntary surveys from members of numerous professional writers' and editors' associations and specialty groups. The more networking, marketing, querying, and studying of magazines and newspapers that you do, the more money you can charge as a freelance writer.
"You'll be surprised how far you can go, and how much you can earn, if you believe in your skills and act on your belief," writes Wasnak in Writer's Market 2010. "Learn how to query, then query like mad. Take chances by reaching for the next level. Learn to negotiate for a fee you can live on…and then get it in writing."
Read 15 Things You Need to Be a Freelance Writer if you're new to the business – especially if you're uncertain if you have what it takes to charge what you want to earn.
One of the most important things to remember about charging money as a writer is that you need courage to ask for the money you want. Guts! When I asked for an increase in my freelance writing pay rate for my favorite magazine, I was scared…but they came through and I'm happy with how much I earn per word.

21 Responses to "Freelance Writing Pay Rates – How Much Do Writers Charge?"
Hello Sharon,
How much are you getting paid for writing short articles for the monthly ad journal? Are you hoping to get paid by the hour, or by the article? How long does it take you to write a short article? How much research is required? Do you have to come up with the article ideas yourself, or will the editors supply them?
I have no idea what the specialty magazine's budget is, but I suspect it's low. You might start by asking for $20 per hour, and see what they say. How much you charge per article really depends on how long it takes you to write an article.
Good luck; I hope you get the job at a satisfactory pay rate!
I just applied for a position writing short articles for a new specialty magazine. My only background is that I have a BA in Speech Communications which is much like journalism, and I work in the specialty field that this magazine targets. I also have experience writing short articles for a monthly ad journal. What should I charge if they hire me?
Thanks for your comments – I'm sorry I didn't get the chance to respond sooner. I've been in school full-time, with no time to do anything blogging-wise. But I'm back now!
This is something I may look into in the future. I write creative pieces, working on a novel right now, but I figure this will probably be a way to get more food (or bread…) on the table. Interesting figures there, good for you for making 35K doing what you love to do! I envy that, truly, but in a good way.
I know this if off topic but I'm looking into starting my own blog and was wondering what all is needed to get set up? I'm assuming
having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny? I'm not very web smart so I'm not 100% sure. Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! -
If you want to be a writer, I highly encourage you to give it a try! My most important advice is to remember that writing is a BUSINESS, and you have to be professional and entrepreneurial at all times.
And, keep learning how to write better. That usually means edit, edit, EDIT your little behind off.
How much writers make depends on their experience, not necessarily their education. These freelance writing pay rates aren't set in stone; it's different for each writer.
Hi im still young and in highschool do you think that becoming a writer is a good choice? ive always thought it woulf be fun! I love writing and I think i would have alot of fun with it i just dont know if its the best idea.
I must submit a budget proposal for a highly unusual job. I am to write a user-friendly grammar for a moribund indigenous language; I am also to create an easy-to-use dictionary of the same language and edit and publish never-before-published traditional texts in the language which were collected last century. I anticipate the grammar to run in the 120-300-page range and the dictionary to be similar in length.(I plan to include the texts within one of those to works.) I have already completed some of the work necessary as part of previous projects which were not funded by this entity, though I'd estimate that 75% of what is yet to be finished will need to be cut from whole cloth. This project will be funded by the tribe for which I am already a full-time employee. I have stated that it must be funded separately because it is a significant commitment (in terms of time, effort, and creative work) and would otherwise place an unfair burden. (I am not compensated well for the work I already perform.) I have no idea what would be fair compensation for this writing project, and they have asked me to submit a budget proposal in a week. What is the rate, per-page or letter, for research-intensive, unique writing of books (whether of this type or something similar)? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I need to do more querying.
Dose anyone know where one might obtain a list of contacts for outlets which hire freelance writers?
Hi Katie,
It sounds like that freelance job offer was sent to many different freelance writers, and the first one (or two, or more) to write the two articles "won" the freelance contract.
It also sounds like that editor or publisher isn't interested in quality, or attracting good writers. He or she just wanted fast articles, and doesn't even care about content.
So, I think you're better off not writing for a client like that. I don't think you'd gain solid writing experience. And what about pay? Did they advertise their pay rates for articles?
The best clients (editors, publishers) to work for are those who are clear about their expectations. And, they won't jump at the first few articles that are handed to them!
But remember – freelance writing is a competitive field. Luckily, there aren't as many good writers as bad ones, which does make it easier for good writers to find work.
I got an offer for a freelance writing job recently and was very excited to begin. The employer asked for 2, 900 word articles. That's it. Just two 900 word articles. No details, no guidelines for what to write about and no information whatsoever about what type of writing they are looking for. When I asked them for more details about the assignment, they said it had already been completed. So I still got no answer about what they wanted. What do I do in this situation? How do I find out what an employer is looking for if they don't tell me?
Hello A.U.M.,
I'm afraid I don't have what you're looking for. If you want to make money writing and editing, you need to research the genres and companies that you're qualified to write for. And, don't forget to ask for their freelance writing pay rates before you write for them!
Best wishes,
Laurie -
As one from Bangladesh having experience in writing, reviewing and editing in English daily newspapers for over 34 years and working as a stringer of the London-based Daily Mirror, can I stand a chance of getting the following project/s[Book reviews, Rewriting and / or Content editing]? Who to apply for such work? Please give complete addresses including emails of persons of genuine companies.
Reference:Several pages written about me in the acclaimed book "Heroes" by one of the world's preeminent investigative journalists, John Pilger, [published by Jonathan Cape 1986, Vintage 2001]
Thanks a lot. -
Magenta, I'm glad this article was helpful. I remember reading that reprints should cost half of the original price. So if you charged $1,000 for the article, you should earn $500 for a reprint. Not bad!
Great post, these tips helped me price my first reprint article properly.
Jean ~ Thanks for pointing out the typo! If you want to proof all my blog posts, I'd love it.
Remember that writing rates vary according to the newspaper or magazine's budget and circulation, and may also depend on how experienced the freelance writer is.
Star ~ These writing jobs and rates are for print newspaper and magazine freelance writers, not for content mills or online e-zines.
Where are the Demand Media, Seed, etc mills in this? The people claiming to make $35K on those are writing thousands of "stories."
It is great information, I have saved it for reference.
Thanks for sharing this info!
Paragraph 2, line 2, the word "how" has a typo.
Line 3, the quote with several adjectives describing writers needs a comma or two.
I'm available for proofing anytime.

Crowd funding. We've all kind of heard of it, heard of someone raising a whole bunch of cash to do some sort of creative thing or raise $70,000 to make a potato salad, but I guess I never thought I'd have the kind of project that would do it successfully. But I just did.
Over the last two years or so, I've put a fair bit of energy into Melbourne Spoken Word, what started as a blog to list all of the amazing spoken word and poetry gig going on in Melbourne, and to talk a bit about the scene, has kind of exploded and gained more support than I could've imagined, to the point it's now more of a mini arts organisation.
It's mostly been run out of my own pocket and energy, with a few people helping write for the site and assist me with gigs, plus the Melbourne Poets Union and Book World have sponsored us a bit which is awesome. But it became a time when taking MSW to the next level required more cash and resources behind it than I could afford or could garner from a few sponsorship agreements. And applying for grants to be honest, is fucking terrifying, confusing and complicated, plus under Abbott is looking even harder, though something we want to try in the future.
The main thing was the current free WordPress template we were using didn't really fit with who central we wanted Upcoming Events to be to the site and we wanted something a bit more dynamic and in your face. I found some quotes and asked around about costs, all of which were well into the four figures. I think someone mentioned crowd funding and I thought it was worth a shot, but probably seemed a little unlikely. It's not like poets are known for being loaded and to be honest, I almost felt guilty for asking all of this from people, what amounted to $4,500 grand which I thought would be for the whole poetry community, but also felt like I was asking it for my own personal project.
The thing is though that in hindsight, the project, a new website for MSW was what is really needed and it's a pretty solid project to ask donations for. It's clear and tangible. Alongside the rewards people get from pledging, we'll all get to see this amazing website soon and it'll feel like we all contributed to make it happen, and that would be my advice if you wanted to launch a crowd funding project, it has to be for something tangible as well as something that will benefit the people you're asking to cough up a fair bit more than change from their wallet in a bucket.
It's incredible. Two people in particular pledged over $1,000 to the project. Many more donated $50 or $100 or more. Some gigs even passed around buckets to collect donations. Aside from the website we're getting, it gives you incredible confidence in the project that is Melbourne Spoken Word that people were willing to support it in that way.
We were also lucky enough to surpass our original target, reaching $5,235 in the end, which meant we also bought a portable PA system to use in venues where we have to provide our own sound equipment. We also think we've probably earned enough to buy a recording interface (the thing that connects microphones and instruments into your laptop) which will help us launch our audio journal of spoken word in 2015.
Crowd funding is said to be past its peak, and my advice is you wouldn't be wanting to ask money for just about anything, and certainly your ability to keep asking for money from subsequent campaigns would diminish unless your profile grew massively, and so you'd wanna be real sure that this is the project you want to ask people to pledge for.
But now that I'm done and dusted, unless your really wanna donate to MSW and keep it going you can email and we can arrange something, I thought I'd recommend a few projects worth donating to below.
Right Now write about human rights, through essay, storytelling, poetry, they give a voice to human rights struggles. I was very lucky to work with them on the above anthology, I edited and commissioned all the poetry in it, judged the poetry section of their competition and worked on the poetry for the online magazine. They're currently trying to raise enough funds for re-do their website and expand the online magazine.
My friend and fellow poet, Randall Stephens is riding across Australia on his bike, you know, like the ones with pedals not engines. He's raising money from Haemophilia and doing poetry gigs on the way.
Equal Love are the guys who run the rallies for same-sex marriage rights in Melbourne. They've been doing it for ten years and putting on and promoting the rallies unfortunately isn't cheap, and if artists find it hard getting money out of the Abbott government, imagine how hard it is for LGBTI activist groups.

If you're an avid skier, snowboarder, or climber, you could be familiar with the lodge, but if not, catch the informative film that's shown in a small room off the lobby. From meals service to equipment rental to ski schools and even lodging, do your homework before selecting your ski area. Do you require an all-wheel-drive or 4-wheel drive? Why not drive up to mount hood and keep at the Timberline Lodge? Hood Ski Bowl, Mt. If he'll sit nonetheless lengthy enough, this canine cutie offers a terrific photo chance! If you do occur to venture out, some of the nation's greatest slopes await! A master craftsman built Timberline Lodge throughout the Great Depression. It is crucial that you bring your personal equipment, but you can buy smaller sized things like goggles and gloves at the lodge. The attentive chefs and staff serve up ultra-gourmet or Montana-casual meals with an elegance and style exclusive to the club. Timberline Lodge In Oregon When skiers consider excellent slopes, they believe Oregon. With many lifts like jeff flood that goes from the top of the lodge to the bottom of their boundaries. You can also head outdoors and cross the parking lot to the Wy'East Day Lodge, a favourite hangout for skiers taking a break from the slopes. Skiing, snowboarding, show shoeing, hiking and lodge tours are primary attractions at Timberline. An equestrian system even non-horse men and women would adore. Louis Cunningham Timberline is the state's only ski in/ski out resort, but ahead of you go, ask about obtaining champagne and truffles placed in your room an further charge. Based on a mixture of personal expertise, study and user testimonials, here's my ideal recommendation for couples preparing a snow covered escape.

BTW I did find the tail heavy spot on my 70 yesterday. The 8s 2x3600 40c turnigys weigh in at 29oz. I bought these 3 hyperion 2600 from an addict and they are a lot lighter. 9oz to be exact. I move the battery up a bit but wanted to keep it under 2 straps. Well after take off I had about 4-5 clicks of down trim to deal with. Hovered a little easier with maybe the lighter plane and probably more because of the cg. It flew fine but the landing was interesting. Had to come in a little faster to keep the tail up!
I may check it on the sticks to see where i was. Also this was a maiden after the motor box replacement. No trimming needed with the regular battery packs. In the pic you can see the normal placement of the heaver setup. Rob |

I just started building my 71" today (Yea!!!) and second step stopped me cold in my tracks. I tried to install the tail wheel and one screw only goes in about 1 1/2 to 2 turns, the second about 4 or so. I tried to torque them a bit and they feel like they are bottoming out or the threads are not cut through. The screw comes out clean with no thread damage. Don't know what to do and do not have a tap this small.
Help!!! See pictures, Tom |

First, take an undersized drill bit, and carefully drill through the blind nut. Make sure it is undersized, and you go slow, as you don't want to mess up the threads. Then take a screw the same size and thread a nut onto it (to "clean the threads when it is taken off) then grind a short taper (about .125" to .187") onto it. Then using a abrasive "cut-off" wheel in a Dremel tool, cut two grooves (one on each side) length-ways on the screw. Take the nut off, cleaning the threads. Basically you are making a tap. Then carefully work the screw into the hole, do not push on it, as you do NOT want to push the blind nut out inside the fuselage. SteveT |

The Norfolk County Council's Apprenticeships Norfolk event at the Forum. Apprentices Tom Cornwell, 21, 2nd left, at Lawtronic; and Sonya Dover, 19, 2nd right, at Culture Works East; with Mark Gaskins, business development director at Lawtronic; and Elli Chapman, artistic director at Culture Works East.

By VICTORIA LEGGETT, Education correspondent
Thursday, September 20, 2012
Businesses hailed apprenticeships as "the way forward" when it comes to growing and developing small and medium sized businesses.
Tom Cornwell said he found the route into an apprenticeship with Lawtronic in King's Lynn suRprisingly easy.
After finding out about the apprenticeships while at sixth form, the former Downham Market High School pupil applied to a scheme at college and was soon being invited to meet potential employers.
The 21-year-old said: "As soon as I had my interview, I had phone calls asking if I wanted to go for interviews with businesses. It was a very easy process."
Tom started working on the shop floor, learning the basic skills needed for the business, and has recently moved into the design office.
He said: "People think going for an apprenticeship is like going straight into work and getting a quick solution for the rest of your life.
"But you can grow it into whatever you want. I started doing level three training and then a HNC. I don't have to stop there."
He now wants to be a software engineering and his employers hope they will one day having him travelling the world with the company thanks to its links with America, China, and a new relationship being built with Brazil.
Tom Catherine had no idea what he wanted to do when he finished his GCSEs and enrolled for A-levels in maths, chemistry, biology and design at the last minute.
But after six months he was still not enjoying it and, during a sixth form trip to Hethel Engineering Centre, met Active Technologies director Antony Howell.
After getting some more advice, the former Wymondham High School pupil decided to leave sixth form and began working at the Hethel-based company on a voluntary basis to get some experience.
The 18-year-old said: "One month there and I knew it was what I wanted to do."
Active Technologies took Tom on as an apprentice and he has since spent a year on a college course gaining the skills he needs for his engineering work manufacturing and designing products.
"I can see myself climbing," he said. "I can now do stuff that other people can't because they haven't been through the training."
Tom wants to work in design and his director Mr Howell said he hoped he would continue to progress and work his way through the company.
"I was an apprentice at 16," said Mr Howell. "And at the end I was president of a global company."
Sonya Dover says her apprenticeship with Culture Works East in Norwich has got her life back on track.
After knuckling down at school to get her GCSEs and secure a place at college, she found herself moving out of her home and into the YMCA during the second year of the course because "family life wasn't exactly brilliant".
Now 19, she said: "From there I did the typical teenage things – got in with the wrong crowd, thought I was better than other people."
But after first meeting Culture Works director Elli Chapman through Festival City – a project which encourages YMCA residents to explore the cultural heritage of Norwich as part of the Norfolk and Norwich Festival – she began to focus again and enrolled on a number of courses to improve her skills. After completing the Right Tracks course, which was a partnership between the YMCA and Culture Works, she was taken on for a pre-apprenticeship scheme last February and began her apprenticeship the following September.
Sonya, left, who lives in Wymondham, is now working in the press and marketing side of the organisation. She said: "It's hard, don't get me wrong, because I'm not used to full-time work. But it's so much fun, I enjoy everything I do.
"I'm willing to work hard. I know what it means to Elli to have someone who's really loyal turn up and not let her down.
"I want to do well and make something of my life."
The comments came as they helped launch the new £3.5m Apprenticeships Norfolk campaign from the county council, which aims to give the area's young people bright futures in industry.
Today's event at The Forum in Norwich coincided with an open day where youngsters could meet employers and find out more about the opportunities available. A total of 500 people registered an interest in an apprenticeship.
Speaking at the launch, Richard Bridgman, chairman of Thetford-based Warren Services, said: "We really need more SMEs [small and medium enterprises] in Norfolk taking on apprentices.
"I'm so passionate about it. It's the way forward. We have got a severe shortage of skills in Norfolk. It's not going to be a problem finding the apprentices – it's finding the companies willing to take them on."
Apprenticeships Norfolk will see the county council offering £3.5m of funding to SMEs in growing sectors who have not previously taken on apprentices to help subsidise wages by between £2,500 and £10,000 a year. It has also launched a website to help businesses sign up with minimum hassle – with support from lead contract provider the College of West Anglia, City College Norwich and Broadland Council training Services – and to give young people the information they need to apply.
Mark Gaskins, business development director at Lawtronic in King's Lynn, said 60pc of the company's 80 employees had come through as apprentices.
He said they had been key to the business's growth. "Our turnover has grown by 30pc-plus this year and we have recruited at least half a dozen people just this year," he said. "I have always view apprentices as the strategic element to grow the business."
Antony Howell is director of Hethell-based Active Technologies and chairman of the Apprenticeships Norfolk strategy board. His company currently has five apprentices out of a total workforce of 35 people.
He said: "Apprentices bring a different approach to the business. They open up different ideas, even challenging you sometimes. It's helps our business perform better.
"We are looking for the next business leaders."
Ann Steward, county council cabinet member for economic development, said she hoped the authority's campaign would help to overcome some of the obstacles which have stood in the way of SMEs in the past.
"It's quite a complicated procedure for some companies, especially when you're small, to take on apprentices," she said. "This is about how we can make is easier for them."

Young apprenticeships are good to a degree, but the older generation is being left out. Even DWP advisers say this but nothing is ever done as options are limited. You either get offered basic training in computing which is worth nothing these days, or you have to find hundreds of thousands of pounds to fund your own courses. Which lets face it people who are long term unemployed are not able to find that kind of money as they only have enough for day to day living.

Hardly "Daft" Tom !. Why havent they taken any on ?. Now NCC are probably reducing the "clipboard wielding" council jobsworths who want everything and a bit more (young person policies, H & S policies etc) to "tick boxes" and a taxpayer funded cash "bribe" they might start taking on apprentices. Perhaps the EDP would like to ask Steward (NCC's know nothing about everything) what obstacles will be overcome ?.

"Norfolk businesses say apprenticeships are key to growth" So why havent they taken any apprentices on then ?
Thursday, September 20, 2012
Is there no issue that V doesn't have a negative, but usually totally misguided and daft view on? The businesses quoted are advocates. Go look it up! They dont qualify for this scheme, but they recognise the value and are trying to encourage other businesses to see the benefits. Grow a brain for heaven's sake.

Shark, I'd really like to see if you can tell me what I'm dealing with here. I've read this site top to bottom and learned a lot about where I've gone wrong but I can not figure this one out.
After 3+ years together we broke up a couple of months ago. I didn't want that and of course I overreacted a little when it happened. Once I got my shit together I went no contact and within 48 hours she was calling and texting asking me to come over and see her. Sex… lots of sex. Almost every night since then. She wants to hang out other times too. She says she loves that our humor meshes, we like the same stuff, etc. Once in a while she will say things like "you're so awesome… you almost make me want to date you again", "you almost make me fall in love with you when you do ______", "I love you… I mean… in a friend sort of way" or "maybe we will visit ______ next year… if we are together…". I play it cool and act like I don't care. The less I seem to care the more she seems to do this.
Now for the part that is confusing me. A few night ago we are getting frisky and talking dirty about having a three-way with another chick. Nobody in particular, just some fantasy she told me about months ago. It really turns her on when we talk about it, but after we finished and were lying there in bed, she starts talking about how it was really hot talking about another chick but how I shouldn't kiss her and try to be romantic when we talk about that. Her reasoning being that she can't think of me in terms of someone she wants to have a future with as well as someone who would have a three-way with her and another girl. Apparently this fantasy is a great turn-on for her but when I participate she sees me as just someone to have sex with, not as a long-term option. This came up after weeks of her being incredibly flirty and sweet with me, and just a couple of days before she had talked briefly about possibly wanting to get back with me in the not too distant future. I indicated at one point that I would like to be with her again in the future but I didn't push it and I didn't get mushy… it was just a quick comment and completely in context when I said it.
Maybe she's getting with someone else or looking at other options, right? I would think that too, except that I am with her literally every night. Essentially, any time she's not at work we are together. She constantly throws little compliments my way, seeks my approval, tells me she tries to look good for me, so this is why I'm turned around on this one. It seemed like my laconic attitude was working. She was trying to monopolize my attention, working hard for it, talking about a future… now as of a couple of days ago she is back to telling me that she doesn't see a future with me and she doesn't want to start over and date me again. Never mind the fact that what we do now is exactly the same as when we were dating, if not better… but of course she would never admit that.
What do I need to do here? I have not been applying NC at all really since the very beginning, and even then it was brief. Typically I do let her contact me and I don't respond instantly, and I let her call me after work to invite me over. I went on a couple of dates with another girl but never told her about it because I didn't want to instigate some sort of revenge on her part. She did get pretty insanely jealous about an email than another Ex sent me, so I can see the effect that another girl liking me could have on the situation I'm just afraid to apply it since this girl gets hit on by every guy who crosses her path.
Is it possible that she is just enjoying this feeling of independence, even if it is mostly and illusion? Maybe she wants to be chased and she got frustrated with me not chasing her? The day after the three-way conversation she still texted and called me at work and even invited me over that night, so she's still interested on some level but I just can't read this situation.
The situation is confusing to you for two reasons. First, you are approaching it within the anarchism of your relationship. Your view lacks objectivity because your mind is rationalizing attraction as a black and white concept; thus having trouble grasping the complexities of a relationship where you have some degree of attraction (via amused mastery and competitive anxiety), yet where you also suffer from some degree of Oneitis/dependency due the triumph of fear over your ego ("I'm just afraid to apply it since this girl gets hit on by every guy who crosses her path") and because you aren't making the jump to Jedi Game. You have game, but not Lothario game. You have confidence, but not God-like confidence.
Second, you are mistaking natural caper, caprice, and secksuality for contradictory behavior. This is how women act, it's normal. Her insinuations toward romantic longevity are meant to keep you in check, the chaos is to keep you on your toes. Women like to imagine they are unpredictable, and they like to act in ways that make you think they're unpredictable. The simple key to understanding women is to try to predict the unpredictable; read someone by knowing that they are trying to be unreadable; predict the actions of someone who was trying to do what you wouldn't predict. Ever watch a romance movie where the guy says "I'm in love with you because… you're so unpredictable!" to the girl? Same idea. Different context. Whilst you may think you have hand, the driver seat is actually being shared between the both of you. She is not "frustrated" by you not chasing her in the sense that she has absolutely conceded to your frame – rather, she's shit testing you to flush out beta blood. Because your relationship is more verbally explicit about secks, her hamster took the opportunity to shit test you in a way you could not parry.
Now, prepare for a magic trick. I'm going to make this all clear to you in a brilliant flash. If you have read through the archives of this blog, it will make all the more sense.
"she starts talking about how it was really hot talking about another chick but how I shouldn't kiss her and try to be romantic when we talk about that." – Asshole game. Attraction. Dread. Anxiety. Jealousy. Dominance. Secks with a psychotic looking masculine guy and his girlfriend, both of whom she met the same day.
"Her reasoning being that she can't think of me in terms of someone she wants to have a future with" – Vulnerability game. Love. Rapport. Commitment. Stability. Secks with a man she's loved for years.
Does the paradox sound familiar now? You are not facing anything different, just a unique manifestation of the same paradox in female secksuality we have discussed over and over again. The lovable jerk, the vulnerable asshole, the dependable yet unpredictable artist, the painter of two emotions. Your girlfriend, like any other girl, wants you to be both within the context of secks AND a long term relationship.
Shark could you help me?I was just wondering about this thing thats been going on inside of me for as long as i can remember. When i was two years old, i walked in my living room and saw my dad and my uncle watching this porno with a girl tied to a chair and a guy eating on mer cunt. Ever since then I wanted to tie girls up and have power over them. I want only to do anal and choke these girls unconscious. I had a dream once that I had a girl in a sleeper hold and just kept knocking her out every time she would wake up. in that dream I feel i saw my meaning in life, you know, what i really enjoy doing with my time. I believe I'm a psychopath and the whole dark triad thing. All I want to do is have physical and mental control over women. What suggestions do you have for me to satisfy my needs??
Find a girl willing to reciprocate.
What is your opinion of these books?
Think and Grow Rich
How to Win Friends and Influence People
Thus Spoke ZarathustraHave you read them?
What will each teach a man?
What will each help with in life?
Do you recommend reading them?
What other books do you recommend to someone who craves knowledge and power?P.S. I read how to win friends and think it is an awesome book for my needs, but what are your veiws
Zarathustra is a favorite of mine, it will change way you see the world if you let it.
I would recommend the two other books if you aren't already familiar with the ideas they propose. Social psychology and personal finance books work the same way. They are aimed at changing your perceptions, but once that's accomplished, they serve no other purpose. Hence, there's no reason to continue your education beyond knowing the fundamentals unless it's to refresh your memory, hone your skills, or for motivation.
Read this: Books to read
How do you balance pseudo-time and realtime (words — internet — text — play VS. actual being where/what/why one is doing/saying/being accordingly)?What's your take on Gilles Deleuze?
Who wins: Isaac (ben Solomon) Luria Ashkenazi, Kennedy, or John Dee?
A balance you must judge yourself. For many, living in pseudo-reality is apart of their calling. It would be difficult to ask someone who runs a social media marketing firm to unplug themselves from social media.
Deleuze strikes me as an intellectual elitist; in the same class as Derrida or Butler
Kennedy. Because he's Kennedy.
Sidenote: Want to become immortal? Die as a martyr
El Matador:
enfrightening indeed. I am wondering Shark, at what point should you draw the line between working your ass off to achieve superiority, whether it be at school or in the office, and taking your work lightly, not being too immersed it it that you don't have time for encounters of the female race. At the higher levels of competitive high school where I go, it seems like you can only choose one.
It would depend on your own goals; different people put different values on poon and power. Professional pick up artists for example, tend to see both as synonymous.
existentialist logic like this never stops getting confirmedhttp://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/2012/feb/01/top-five-regrets-of-the-dying
her clientele could have learned a thing or two from you
Tyler: Guys, what would you wish you'd done before you die?
Steph: Paint a self-portrait.
The Mechanic: Build a house.
Tyler: And you?
Narrator: I don't know. Nothing…nothing. Come on get in the right lane!
Tyler: You have to know the answer to this question! If you died right now, how would you feel about your life?
Narrator: I don't know, I wouldn't feel anything good about my life, is that what you want to hear me say?
Tyler: Not good enough.
Hey Shark,
In your ebook, you say that if you're young, you have time to pick up a sport. How old is young?
Assuming you've played at least one sport when you were younger, whether for recreation or competitively, you can pick that back up again at any age till your body keeps it from being enjoyable. If you haven't, compete against yourself at the gym.
Shark, my girlfriend broke up with me about a month ago. At the time, I remained almost completely unaffected by the situation, there was no crying, no resentment, no anger, I had complete emotional control. It is only 1 month later, when she begs me to go back to her that I start feeling these kind of emotions. We often hear about how bad it is to "bottle up" your emotions, so if men are supposed to be in control of their emotions, where is our outlet? Is it unhealthy to repress these feelings?Thanks Shark,
A man does not talk of his emotions. The trope about it being bad to bottle your feelings up is a lie; a ruse to get men to more openly communicate their betaness, remain complicit with their insecurities and faux pas, and to allow women to more clearly scope out incongruency. Kind of like if there was suddenly a huge movement that supported women relinquishing make-up and liposuction so they wouldn't have to bottle up their shortcomings, preventing men from accidentally sleeping with someone they'd regret to sleep with when they woke up in the morning or marrying someone only to have them inflate post-altar. Consider yourself unplugged.
I know you touched on the Kardashian show back in December. But I recently saw that Kim Kardashian is dating Kanye West. I can't help but wonder: What is she famous for? What did she accomplish in her life?
Most importantly: What do you think this is teaching young girls?
She represents the polarization of gender conceptions, another aspect of post-apocalyptic New Earth. You'll have more hyper masculine sociopathic men, and more hyper feminine estrogen fueled shopaholic women. And in the middle will be a gender neutral population of betatized men and masculinized women. Should we be more worried about what Bruno Mars is teaching young guys, or what Kardashian is teaching young women? Pick your poison.
Following this comment, I had this exchange with a friend. Thought it might be of interest:
Me: Do you think Kim Kardashian would be a good role model for younger girls?
Her: If you watch the show, she's really nice
Me: So, do you think Kim Kardashian would be a good role model for younger girls?
Her: Lol I mean, she's hard working, she's professional
Me: Scroll up after every evasive response from now on, it's 10 cents a text for me
Her: Lol for a different group of people i guess
Me: You would want her as a role model for your daughter?
Her: Everyone has a different mindset, people are different
I think it may just be safer to tell all of your readers to go ahead and NOT try to explain game, or anything related, to women. Sounds like most guys on here would mess it up horribly. After all, is it not counter productive? Not that I'm some guru or anything but most of us would be way too overt.
I'd like to get you're opinion on something if possible..
I wrote you awhile back about a relationship, involving children, a super conservative cult like religion, etc. Anyway..it ran its course, got ugly, and we split. And I'm doing pretty good with it thanks to the wisdom I've gained here.
Right now I'm gaming 3 women who know I'm the Alpha when it comes to my hobby. I do remember you mentioning, in a previous post, about women always being interested in the best at any given activity. Well I see it all the time… when they come in with their boyfriends. The mad wandering eye.
I'm basically applying game and trying to learn as much as i can from interacting with these 3. The crazy thing is how different they are, yet how similar they are. Their ages are 24 (no kids), 33 (single mom), and 39 (single mom). I am 29 years old, but look 22, and I know I'm very attractive. But I know looks are just looks, and NEED to be a leader.
Out of these three, the two youngest, act pretty nervous around..and they just dont seem to be 'themselves'. The oldest, is the coolest, is 'herself' and just seems comfortable. I've made it clear (to all) that I'm not looking for a relationship, yet they ALL text first, escalate first, offer dates/plans first. I find myself WANTING to hang out with her…the other two..eh not so much. It's more of a chore.
My question is: What is making the oldest more comfortable around me? I feel like I'm gaming correctly and showing my Alphaness. Confidence. The reason I ask is because I KNOW she is used to being around Alphas all day. She's an ex marine, works at the county jail as a tactical officer (so her peers are tough ass kicking dudes). She's a tough chick. She also has a bunch of loser inmates to which I contrast (however I'm sure a bunch of them are alphas). I think I may have answered my own question by writing this.. if I acted like a pussy around her, good looks or not, I'd pale in comparison to her current peers. You're opinion is appreciated.
I am somewhat confused, you are asking why an ex marine tactical officer doesn't get nervous around you?

The Awan are an Urdu speaking people who number over 600,000 in India. The majority of Awans claim that they are descended from Qutb Shah, a general in the army of Mahmud of Ghazni, who was a descendant of Mohammed's cousin and son-in-law, Ali.
The Awans have a strong martial tradition and are renowned for their bravery. They were among those the British considered to be 'martial races' (a designation created by officials of British India to describe peoples that were thought to be naturally warlike and aggressive in battle and to possess qualities such as courage, loyalty, self-sufficiency, physical strength, resilience, and fighting tenacity).
The British recruited heavily from these 'martial races' for service in the colonial army, and they formed part of the core Muslim group recruited during the First and Second World Wars.
Prayer Starters:
- Proclaim that the Lord is the Lord of Hosts (armies) over the Awan and that they should obey Him (Ps. 103:19-22). Pray for liberation from the chains of the enemy.
- Ask God to reveal Himself to the Awan through dreams, visions and other manifestations (Ps. 103:2-3).
- Pray for labourers to proclaim the Messiah among the Awan.

Islamic ideas about Jesus
- Jesus was conceived miraculously by God in the womb of the virgin Mary.
- Jesus is only a prophet, he is not divine (not the Son of God, not God in the flesh).
- Muslims even believe that Jesus even spoke as an infant saying that he was a prophet.
- According to Islam Jesus was actually a good Muslim and he taught an earlier form of Islam to the Jewish people. One can find a Muslim account of the life of Jesus in the so called "Gospel of Barnabas." This document was probably come to be in its present form in the 14th – 16th centuries AD. It may have even been written at that time.
- Jesus will come again one day, he will marry, he will have children. He will correct the errors which Christians have said about him. He will die, he will be buried in Medina and be judged like all men at the Last Judgement.
- Jesus is not the Judge of mankind.
What God Says
Jesus, the Messiah, resurrected from the dead, the ruler of the kings of the earth … has released us from our sins by His blood. (Revelation 1:5)

Are you ready to review another Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) prepared by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC)? You had better be because indications are that a Draft EIS for the Jordan Cove LNG Export terminal proposal will be released for public review sometime later this year.
As you recall, FERC provided us with a EIS a few years back covering the Jordan Cove LNG Import proposal, and used it as the basis for issuing a permit to allow construction to proceed. However, that decision was immediately challenged by the Oregon Attorney General and other organizations and individuals on the grounds that FERC failed to fully comply with the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). Rather than processing these challenges, FERC simply walked away and vacated the permit it had issued.
Now we are entering an entirely new EIS process for the export terminal.
The first Jordan Cove EIS was a gross and blatant attempt to evade or circumvent the specific procedural requirements of the NEPA. Logic would indicate that there were many lessons to be learned and that the second Jordan Cove EIS will be in full accord with the letter and intent of NEPA.
But, please don't hold your breath.
Section 202 of the NEPA creates a Federal agency that is charged to "appraise programs and activities of the Federal Government" so as to ensure they meet the spirit and intent of the Act "so as to promote the improvement of the quality of the environment". This agency is the Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ), and it is placed within the Executive Office of the President.
NEPA requires that the Council be composed of three members "who shall be appointed by the President", and, that the President designate one member to serve as Chairman. NEPA states that all members "shall be a person who, as a result of his training, experience, and attainments, is exceptionally well qualified to analyze and interpret environmental trends and information of all kinds….and be conscious of and responsive to the scientific, economic, social, esthetic, and cultural needs and interests of the Nation".
CEQ has had a rather checkered career over the past 40 years. It probably reached its zenith under President Carter who boosted its staffing to include 80 scientists, lawyers, economists and other support staff. President Clinton took it to its lowest point. He reduced the staffing level down to 3 full-time employees and made an unsuccessful effort to disband the CEQ entirely. Let's look at how things are currently under the Obama administration.
The Obama administration recently provided its FY 2014 Budget Submission to Congress. The section regarding the CEQ reads as follows: "Notwithstanding section 202 of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1970, the Council shall consist of one member (emphasis provided) appointed by the President, serving as chairman and exercising all powers, functions, and duties of the Council"
The "one member" is Nancy Sutley. She holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Government and a Master of Science degree in Public Policy. So much for her "training, experience, and attainments" in environmental science. In addition, there are unconfirmed reports that she intends to resign her position by the end of February.
Therefore, since CEQ is ineffective and virtually non-existent, we can expect little help in forcing FERC to give us what we are entitled to under existing law. It will be up to us to participate fully in the formal NEPA-regulated commenting process that will follow the release of the Draft EIS. So, break out the midnight oil and the green eyeshades – it's gonna be a long haul.

The X-Men First Class voting application allowed users to vote for a particular cinema.
The winning cinema would then host the screening and local users who voted for that cinema would win tickets.
The application was built by Flash wizard Craig Beswetherwick with me working on a RESTFul API that would accept calls to register a users vote and return the current top 10 cinemas.
I used authentication to stop unwanted calls to any POST calls that publish content to the database and returned all content back to Craig's Flash layer in JSON format to allow for easier data manipulation.
The database stores a series of cinemas along with the latitude and longitude values and increments their count when a user registers a vote. The users vote is stored along with their email address, name and other entry information.

Ars Technica (/ˌɑrz ˈtɛknɨkə/; Latin-derived for the "art of technology") is a technology news and information website created by Ken Fisher and Jon Stokes in 1998.[2] It publishes news, reviews and guides on issues such as computer hardware and software, science, technology policy, and video games. Many of the site's writers are postgraduates, and some work for research institutions. Articles on the website are written in a less formal tone than those in traditional journals.
Ars Technica was privately owned until May 2008, when it was sold to Condé Nast Digital, the online division of Condé Nast Publications. Condé Nast purchased the site along with two others for $25 million and added it to their Wired Digital group, which also includes Wired News and, formerly, Reddit. Most of the website's staff work from home. A significant number work in Chicago, Illinois, and the San Francisco Bay Area.
Ars Technica's operations are funded primarily by online advertising and it has offered a paid subscription service since 2001. The website generated controversy in 2009 when it experimentally prevented users who used advertisement blocking software from viewing the site.
Ken Fisher and Jon Stokes created the Ars Technica website and limited liability company in 1998.[3] Its purpose was to publish computer hardware- and software-related news articles and guides;[4] in their words, "the best multi-OS, PC hardware, and tech coverage possible while [..] having fun, being productive, and being as informative and as accurate as possible".[5] "Ars technica" is a Latin phrase that translates to "technological art".[4] The website published news, reviews, guides, and other content of interest to computer enthusiasts. Writers for Ars Technica were geographically distributed across the United States at the time; Fisher lived in his parents' house in Boston, Massachusetts, Stokes in Chicago, Illinois, and the other writers in their respective cities.[3][6]
On May 19, 2008, Ars Technica was sold to Condé Nast Digital, the online division of Condé Nast Publications.[note 1] The sale was part of a combination purchase by Condé Nast Digital of three unaffiliated websites costing $25 million total: Ars Technica, Webmonkey, and Hot Wired. Ars Technica was added to the company's Wired Digital group, which includes Wired News and Reddit. In an interview with the New York Times, Fisher said other companies offered to buy Ars Technica and the site's writers agreed to a deal with Condé Nast because they felt it offered them the best chance to turn their "hobby" into a business.[8] Fisher, Stokes, and the eight other writers at the time were employed by Condé Nast, with Fisher as editor in chief.[9][10] Layoffs at Condé Nast in November 2008 affected websites owned by the company "across the board", including Ars Technica.[11]
The content of articles published by Ars Technica has generally remained the same since its creation in 1998 and are categorized by four types: News, Guides, Reviews, and Features. News articles relay current events. Ars Technica also hosts OpenForum, a free internet forum for the discussion of a variety of topics.
Originally, most news articles published by the website were relayed from other technology-related websites. Ars Technica provided short commentary on the news, generally a few paragraphs, and a link to the original source. After being purchased by Conde Nast, Ars Technica began publishing more original news; investigating topics and interviewing sources themselves. A significant portion of the news articles published there now are original. Relayed news is still published on the website, ranging from one- or two-sentences to a few paragraphs.
Ars Technica's Features are long articles that go into great depth on their subject.[12][13] For example, the site published a guide on CPU architecture in 1998 named "Understanding CPU caching and performance".[14] An article in 2009 discussed in detail the theory, physics, mathematical proofs, and applications of quantum computers.[15] The website's 18,000-word review of Apple Inc.'s iPad described everything from the product's packaging, to the specific type of integrated circuits it uses.[16]
Ars Technica is written in a less formal tone than in a traditional journal.[17][18] Many of the website's regular writers have postgraduate degrees, and many work for academic or private research institutions. Website co-founder Jon Stokes published the computer architecture textbook Inside The Machine in 2007;[19] John Timmer performed postdoctoral research in developmental neurobiology;[17] Timothy Lee is a scholar at the Cato Institute, a public policy institute, which has republished Ars Technica articles by him.[20][21] Biology journal Disease Models & Mechanisms called Ars Technica a "conduit between researchers and the public" in 2008.[22]
On September 12, 2012, Ars Technica recorded its highest daily traffic ever with its iPhone 5 event coverage. It recorded 15.3 million pageviews, 13.2 million of which came from its live blog platform of the event.[23]
The cost of operating Ars Technica has always been funded primarily by online advertising.[24] Originally handled by Federated Media Publishing, selling advertising space on the website is now handled by Condé Nast.[9] In addition to online advertising, Ars Technica has sold subscriptions to the website since 2001, now named Ars Premier subscriptions. Subscribers are not shown advertisements, and are able to see exclusive articles, post in certain areas of Ars Technica forum, participate in live chat rooms with notable people in the computer industry, and other benefits.[25] To a lesser extent, revenue is also collected from content sponsorship. A series of articles about the future of collaboration was sponsored by IBM,[24] and the site's Exploring Datacenters section is sponsored by data management company NetApp. In the past, Ars Technica collected shared revenue from affiliate marketing by advertising deals and discounts from online retailers, and from the sale of Ars Technica-branded merchandise.[26]
Advertisement block[edit]
On March 5, 2010, Ars Technica experimentally blocked readers who used Adblock Plus—one of several computer programs that stop advertisements from being displayed in their browser—from viewing the website. Fisher estimated 40% of the website's readers had the software installed at the time. The next day, the block was lifted, and the article "Why Ad Blocking is devastating to the sites you love" was published on Ars Technica persuading readers not to use the software on websites they care about:[24]
... blocking ads can be devastating to the sites you love. I am not making an argument that blocking ads is a form of stealing, or is immoral, or unethical ... It can result in people losing their jobs, it can result in less content on any given site, and it definitely can affect the quality of content. It can also put sites into a real advertising death spin.
The block and article were controversial, generating articles on other websites about them, and the broader issue of advertising ethics.[27][28] Readers of Ars Technica generally followed Fisher's persuasion; the day after his article was published, 25,000 readers who used the software had allowed the display of advertisements on Ars Technica in their browser, and 200 readers had subscribed to Ars Premier.[24]

Changklan Road
Chiang Mai
Chiang Mai
Concierge.com's insider take:
For Thais, shopping is a daily experience. However, the sights and smells of a chaotic morning market such as Talat Warorotfreshly butchered hogs, dried river fish, the unmistakable urinal-cake stench of durian fruitare not for the faint of stomach. But adjacent to the city's largest souk lies the heaven-scent alternative of Ton Lamyai, the daily flower market. Along a riverside stretch of Changklan Road north of Narawat Bridge, Thailand's riotous floral diversity is on full display: lotus and marigolds, heliconia and gladiolus, in helpings to sate any botanist.

Health and Fitness: Get the Matthew Fox look
The Wharf's fitness columnist Laura Williams tells you how to lose weight while building up muscle mass to help you get the physique Matthew Fox perfected ahead of his latest role.
The actor embarked on a gruelling diet and fitness regime to play the cage fighting serial killer in the thriller Alex Cross.
How he did it: A diet of chicken breasts, steamed broccoli and protein shakes meant Fox dropped pounds for his role.
He combined this with plenty of cardiovascular exercise as well as tough circuit training to lose the weight and gain the muscle mass required for the role.
Do it for yourself: No doubt you've either tried a low carb diet by now for yourself, or you've got friends or colleagues who swear by this as an effective way of losing weight.
There are three main principles behind the often high weight loss associated with low carb diets. One is that the majority of weight loss is from water (when you cut down on carbs drastically, you also lose water), the second is that when you severely restrict the body's intake of carbs you force it into a process called ketosis, whereby the body begins to burn its own fat as fuel.
The third theory behind the weight loss is that as carby-foods so often tend to be the fattening ones, you're simply creating a big calorie deficit. Let's face it, there's only so much steak you can eat, unlike, say, bread, spuds, pizza and chocolate.
Still tempted to go low carb? Try and include as many carbs in the form of veggies with your protein fix and choose your protein wisely (lean meat, fish and low fat dairy).

AFTER the success of last week's caption competition, which attracted more than 1,500 entries, we've decided to do it again this week. This time we would like you to write a caption for a picture that will illustrate a story in the Asia section of the newspaper. The story is about the anti-Korean and anti-Chinese protests (right) in Taiwan against the controversial disqualification of Yang Shu-chun, a Taiwanese taekwondo athlete, in the Asian Games earlier this month. (Many of the officials involved in the match were Koreans, and the games were held in China.)
We have chosen a suitable picture, but it's up to you to provide the words. Please suggest a caption in the comments thread below. It should be short and snappy, and no more than about 30 characters long (the width of a single column of text on a standard Economist page, including spaces). We will choose the best caption and use it in this week's print edition. Entries close at midnight London time on Wednesday evening, so you've got a bit over 48 hours. The only reward is that the winner can then truthfully claim to have written (at least a few words) for The Economist. Over to you.
Update 25/11: Thank you very much for all your entries. This week we actually have two winners, because we decided to use one of the entries as the headline of the article as well as choosing a picture caption. The winning caption, "No you Taekwondon't", was supplied by user WfX3eRsEp8; we changed this slightly to "Oh no you taekwondon't". The headline, "Sensors and sensibility", was supplied by KWillets. Congratulations to both winners. An honourable mention goes to hedgefundguy, who was the first of many readers to suggest "Taekwondon't". And the following entries were highly commended: "Taekwondon't mess with Taiwan!" (Cyberquill); "Hey China, that was below the belt!" (Zakirah); and "TaeKwanDon't Take this Sitting Down!" (generated4050352). Those funny generated user names? No, we're not quite sure what's going on, either. We're looking into it.
