And though the significance of Stone's appearance was a bit lost on Miami Beach's electro-or-salsafied inveterate party scenesters, all agreed that 45 minutes of Stone's red-faced bellowing was preferable to even twenty seconds of played-out Daddy Yankee. That's just the kind of party it was: nothing to complain about and much to appreciate.
The nominal occasion for the Casa's "opening" it has been the site of numerous soirees over the past year was for Loftin to convince his stratosphere-scraping guests that a $46,000 membership fee would indeed secure not only exclusivity but also opportunities for subtle networking and not-so-subtle debauchery away from prying public eyes, and to do it all in the mansion where designer Gianni Versace was gunned down.
"But really, tonight's just about a good time," Loftin told The Bitch, gesturing to the crowd of about 500 with a stogy in one hand and a tumbler of bourbon in the other.
And thanks largely to the efforts of the A-Team of marketing magicians at Zakarin PR (Loftin wisely going with the smallish but effective Coral Gables-based firm), guests even the notoriously jaded yet party-shy Bitch did have a good time. Note to event planners for the rest of the season: It's a good thing to have tons of cheese, paella, risotto, and other alcohol-absorbing snacks dispensed freely, and it's a great thing to hand people glasses of champagne and Red Bull the moment they walk in the door.
"What did we do before Red Bull?" mused guest Jim Baxter, editor of Home Miami magazine. The dapper Baxter waxed further nostalgic, recalling the early days of the Versace mansion, when Baxter and his partner Bill Hahne would often wave to the designer as he read Italian magazines at the News Café.
The Bitch was happy to note the presence of a few left-field partiers, including a woman in full "Miss Jones County [Georgia] 1986" regalia and especially Gary Hall, Jr. , winner of ten Olympic medals for swimming.
Graciously accepting a compliment on his hipster-doofus vintage getup (black-and-white houndstooth pants, pink bowling shirt, khaki porkpie), Hall says he trains now in Islamorada and works full-time talking to folks about type 1 diabetes, an affliction he battles.
Rounding out the night with an afterparty at the ever-jumping Buck15, The Bitch was sad to learn that her closest competitor in the jumpily energetic party-mackin' world, Ocean Drive staff writer (and former New Times columnist) Humberto Guida, can no longer be contained by the Magic City: December will see the effervescent nightlife royalty-maker head to the place he belongs, Los Angeles, where he'll keep writing, keep hustling, and, no doubt, soon make the leap to the plasma TV screen nearest you.
Coyote Ugly The Bitch has always been mystified by the presence of Dutch clothier Oilily in the United States. This season, though, the company that caters to infants, children, and their primary-color-loving mums came out with an edgy collection featuring fabrics printed with lovingly detailed images of ... wolves.
Paul Lechlinski, Oilily's director of design, says, "We also have a client who is looking to wear the clothes in a alternative expressive way. The collection has become more sophisticated."
Flipping through a recent J.Crew catalog in search of the normal togs she sometimes deploys to fool the humans, The Bitch was subjected to a lack of sophistication when she noticed a familiar, and familial, looking tail attached to the "Puffer" vest: one belonging to a coyote. Apparently the fashion-backward designers for the Lynchburg, Virginia store have no problem sidestepping the protection laws of this land and importing fur from farms in Asian countries.
The agitated dog then visited the J.Crew store at the Aventura Mall, quickly sniffing out the rabbit fur-lined boots as soon as she entered the store stocked with the ready-for-fall-that-will-never-happen-in-Florida coats, sweaters, and scarves.
The manager, a ringer for Philip Seymour Hoffman named Graham Pelley, wandered over, and The Bitch asked, "Is this real fur?"
"Why, yes!" Pelley squealed. "It's rabbit. Isn't it soft?"
Um, yeah. Ugh!
The Bitch will continue wagging her tail up and down the aisles of her favorite discount store, Target, whose recent Sunday circular proudly displayed its Mossimo jackets on the cover with the tagline "Real Girls Wear Faux."
Blimey, Where's My Tar?
The Bitch overhears a lot of things, including this monologue from a waiflike English gal who has been in the news a lot lately for getting in trouble doing the single thing the pharmaceutically curious hound could ever share with a supermodel. The trouble-addicted beauty is apparently in town on the lowdown for Miami's, uh, fashion week.... With apologies to eurotrash:
"Yeah. So I'm at the Miami Fashion Week kick-off party at Funkshion, on Lincoln Road, in Miami Beach, and I'm feeling totally good because I've done lots of coke and I look cool with my new asymmetrical Stella Tennant hairstyle. So what if I lost all those stupid modeling contracts my boyfriend's a rock star, so fuck you, you suburban motherfuckers!

These earings are very pretty. They are light weight and dangle perfect. I had positive comments on them the first day ever worn and I have longer hair.
Truly beautiful intricately constructed earrings. Elegant enough for an evening on the town and totally appropriate for woking in an office. These earrings also look really stunning with casual clothing while attending sport events.
Could not be happier with the earrings. Bought them to convert to post and wear with all my copper and rose gold. They are larger than I thought they would be but that only makes them better. They are not at all gaudy-simply elegant.
Why is Overstock allowing vendors to use metric in American market!? Besides, if they do that, the metric and inch sizes must be the same and they are not!? Description does not give accurate idea about the size if the items!
I was excited to find these as I have a necklace that has sentimental value and I needed earrings to go with it. I did not calculate the millimeter size so when I received the product it was too large for the necklace. I was disappointed to have to return the earrings.
They look pretty in picture but they look very cheap in person. The earring wire is very thin and will not hold up. The earring wire is too long and cannot hold up to wear and tear. The same copper wire which is wound around for intricate detail is used for the earring wire-not appropriate at all.
Very beautiful earrings. Nicer than expected. Good quality and craftsmanship. On the large side so I hope that you like big jewelry like I do.
I love these earrings. They are very pretty and well made. They are a little bigger than I expected but I'll get over that. They are too pretty for casual wear in my opinion. Not too heavy. Nice.

Back Country Medics medevac injured woman
Back Country Medics responded to Wilderness Gateway Campground, milepost 122.5 on U.S. Highway 12, at the request of Kooskia Ambulance to fly a woman to medical facilities after she was injured in a head-on vehicle accident Sunday afternoon.
According to Back Country Medics, Jodi Todd, 44, Missoula, MT, had possible chest and right knee injuries. Back Country originally attempted flying Todd to medical facilities in Missoula, but had to turn around due to weather conditions. She was taken to St. Joseph Regional Medical Center in Lewiston.
The driver of the vehicle Kevin D. Todd, 45, Missoula, was taken by ground ambulance to Syringa General Hospital in Grangeville. The driver of the other vehicle, Jessica L. Martin, 26, Elk City, was not injured.
According to ISP, Martin was driving a 2007 Toyota 4-Runner westbound on U.S. Highway 12 at milepost 124 when she lost control due to ice-covered roadways. Her vehicle collided with the Todd vehicle, a 2004 Chevrolet Silverado, and came to rest facing south in the westbound travel lane. The road way was blocked for approximately 2 ½ hours.
In addition to Back Country Medics and ISP, Idaho County Sheriff's Department, Lowell QRU, Kooskia Ambulance and Idaho Transportation Department responded and assisted.

A grid-based, KIneMatic wave STOrm Runoff Model (KIMSTORM) is described. The model adopts the single flow-path algorithm and routes the water balance during the storm period. Manning's roughness coefficient adjustment function of the paddy cell was applied to simulate the flood mitigation effect of the paddy fields for the grid-based, distributed rainfall-runoff modeling. The model was tested in 2296 km2 dam watershed in South Korea using six typhoon storm events occurring between 2000 and 2007 with 500 m spatial resolution, and the results were tested through the automatic model evaluation functions in the model. The average values of the Nash–Sutcliffe model efficiency (ME), the volume conservation index (VCI), the relative error of peak runoff rate (EQp), and the absolute error of peak runoff (ETp) were 0.974, 1.016, 0.019, and 0.45 h for calibrated storm events and 0.975, 0.951, 0.029, and 0.50 h for verified storm events, respectively. In the simulation of the flood mitigation effect of the paddy fields, the average values of the percentage changes for peak runoff, total runoff volume, and time to peak runoff were only −1.95, −0.93, and 0.19%, respectively.

"Great Book"
This book is for open minded people who are familar with Erotica or her work. This is not the traditional Harlequin Romance, this is straight up Erotica done in a refreshing and comical way.
Finally, I am introduced to Zane by audible.com. I have for years, years wanted to read her books, but I could never find the time. The writer's story in itself is amazing, i.e. becoming a best selling author later in her life.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The story is raw, honest and "realtalk" for adults. The candor and exspite language of the book is shocking but so over the top
is comedical at times, which is what I think the author wants. You can't help but to be laugh at Lydia's complete inhibition in all areas of life. Lydia looks at life and her sexuality
which resembles "traditional male sexuality. I would call Lydia a Rakehell or Libertine. I loved Malena and empathized with her on several levels.
"One of the best in the series"
Maybe my favorite in the series.
Gwen and Lac's story is the most fun and sweet.
An A+ job. Love
"Shocking, Drama-filled, gritty and touching"
Blown away by this book and this author. I immediately downloaded book 2 and book 3. This story of Duece and Eva is hearbreaking, heartwrenching and touching all at the same time.
This storyline of the so-called biker lifestyle is not for the faint of heart. If you go into this story with an open mind, Prepare for it be blown.
"Fantastic Debut in Erotic Romance"
I was happy when this book made it to audio. The hype behind this debut novel by Christina Laurens is truly deserved. Excellent story line, the relationship and romance develop was stop on. The "steam" between Chloe and Bennett was smothering. Can't wait for the 2nd book in this series "Beautiful Stranger".
"2nd Book of the series is just as wonderful"
This is the 2nd book I've listened to from Cecilia Grant and I am a huge fan of her writing. The book combines adult and sometimes dark themes, adult reactions and witty writing. I don't know how Ms Grant is going to top this installment but I'm anxious to see if she can.
"Now this is what Erotic Romance is all about."
Absolutely fantastic. I haven't been touched by a book like this in a long time. I loved all the characters in the book, Ellie, Adam, and Dr. Pritchard.
Joss aka Jocelyn is brave, wonderful and so real. For someone so young and who had lost so much; she is incredibly self-suffient and independent. That independence keeps her safe; safe from developing close relationships with others in fear that they can lead to further loss. I saw alot of myself in Joss, my younger 22 year old self.
I love the fact the Joss knows she has issues, but that Braden, that special someone, won't let those issues stop him from forcing himself into her life. Braden was the right man, at the right time and strong enough to be with Joss.
This is what Erotic Romance should be; passionate, uplifting, real and hopeful.
I highly recommend this book.
The audiobook narrated by Paula Costello who was fabulous.
"Book 2 of the series does not disappoint"
Book 2 does not disappoint. The unlikely pair of"Imogene" as Ty so lovingly calls Imogen is sweet. The story continues to evolve and the supporting characters are so likeable.
This is an erotic romance book and series. I've seen some negative reviews of this series based mainly on the fact that this is an erotic romance series. I would suggest to everyone before buying a book, cross reference the book and series on other websites.
"Ladies and Gentleman, start your engines..."
This is my first Erin McCarthy book and series. I've been waiting for this series to come to audio. The narrator Emily Durante is very good and the characters are fantastic. Ms. McCarthy writes erotic romance so this series is not for those who like "vanilla' or "classic" romance novels. The language and the writing is very sexy but romance theme runs throughout. Tamara and Elec's love story was sweet and hot.
I would recommend this series for those who are fans of erotic romance or for those looking for more spicy, sexy romance story with plenty of wit and laughs.
"One of the best of the series"
Lover Reborn is one of the best audiobook I've listened it. Jim Fragione again is wonderful, maybe my favorite audio book narrator. But it's the story of Lover Reborn, Tohr's book that is fantastic. Ms. Ward takes us through the stages of grief, self doubt, pity, anger and renewal.
The book's other storylines are rich and enhance the book too. This series continues to soar.
When Tohr realizes that he has something to live for.
When the brothers are in the Wrath's room discussing how to handle the letter from the Bastards of Brothers to the glimera. Rhage being sarcastic and calling himself "The easter bunny". The other brother tease him and call him names, My favorite is "Bestie Bo Peep".
At Wellsie and Tohr's son fade ceremony.
"Great book with a memorable heroine.."
Yes, The narration is very good and moves the story along well.
The main character Jessie's spirit and how she learns to trust and love.
Excellent narrator with believeable voices.
I really liked it and I think Ms Walker may change the way people think about erotic romances. The books is sophisicated, sensual, have magical nuances and shows how love can transform a person.
Jessie and Gregor's bargin is based on revenge but soon you realize these two are made for each other. Each learns to trust each other and finds a kindred spirit in the other.
"NEWEST PNR Series destined to be a Hit"
This has to be one of the best PNR books I've listened to in awhile. The storyline is fabulous and absolutely love the characters. Dragos and Pia are wonderful but the secondary characters, Trix, Ariel, Rune and The Griffins are just as intriguing and I can't wait for their stories.
The book was so wonderful. I haven't felt this excited about a series since Gena Showalter's Lord of the Underworld series.
This is a must read for fans of the PNR(Paranormal Romance) Genre.
Gena Showalter's The Darkest Pleasure. Two strong characters who are thrown together by fate to save each other.
It make me laugh.

History Notes, April 28: Adventure Village
Written by Lynn Wood, GEHTHS Sunday, April 28, 2013 02:59 pm
Next > |
EGG HARBOR TOWNSHIP – Welcome to History Notes, our weekly feature that looks back through Egg Harbor Township history. Each Sunday, we will get a chance to learn or reminisce courtesy of Lynn Wood of the Greate Egg Harbour Township Historical Society, who will be sharing early photos of places in Egg Harbor Township with our readers online and in our print editions.
Adventure Village
Adventure Village was located between Storybook Land and Zaberers restaurant on the Black Horse Pike. In 1959 it opened for business in the summer months and continued for 10 years. My father, Fred Warner, built the old-time themed amusement park and moved our family from Gladwyne Pa. to McKee City.
Adventure Village was a unique family fun spot featuring old model T car rides, a diamond mine, old train ride through the woods (which occasionally got robbed), and free hourly entertainment of old-time movies like Laurel and Hardy in the Hippodrome Theater, or a skit out in the center of town.
"Slippery Sam" would talk to the boys and girls in the jail and occasionally escape while masses of children descended upon him to put him back in jail. Then the children would get "sworn in" by a keystone cop or the mayor of the village (my dad) and receive their tin badges.
The drink of the house in the Pink Garter Saloon was pink lemonade with a garter around the cup. Maybe some of you remember the antique car shows, nighttime square dancing, horse and buggy rides through the woods back to "Rattlesnake Junction," or having your birthday party celebrated in the tree house. All these creative ideas came from our father.
It was a family business. My brother Scott, alias "Slippery Sam," still carries scars from attacks from the boys and girls after escaping from jail.
After having enough of the park, Dad auctioned off the rides and turned the buildings into apartments. That continued for about another 10 years.
It was sold several times over since then, and the site was finally bought by Auto Lenders in 2009.
There is a Facebook group dedicated to sharing memories of this former landmark. Click here to join.
Upcoming events at the Great Egg Harbour Township Historical Society:
During Nucky Johnson's days in court in Camden, he was represented by Frank Ferry, Esq. Ferry has written a book about Johnson's life and will give a presentation at the Second Annual Greate Egg Harbour Township Historical Society dinner at Harbor Pines Golf Club on Friday, May 17. Dinner starts at 6:30 p.m.
For ticket information call Lisa Press at (609) 646-9633. Ferry will do a book signing that evening as well.
Visit the GEHT Historical Society Museum, located at 6647 West Jersey Ave. Hours are 1-3 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays or by appointment, or see them on the web at www.gehthsmuseum.org.

An interesing project for fans of the Figurative Arts and Life Drawing, now with their own channel on YouTube. TheGreatNude.tv is a subscription-based magazine featuring Artists who work with The Nude. With their exhibition and event reviews, interviews with collectors and galleries, and a tutorial series called SKETCH SESSIONS, they have an entertaining arts program. TheGreatNude.tv has released over 50 videos to the public through their YouTube Channel and has over 10,000 subscribers. They plan to offer Pay-Per-View videos in 2014. Check them out and let us know what you think.
Our latest experiment in video shows the body in motion doing ordinary things. We chose dressing because is an everyday activity that involves a lot of twisting, bending, detailed hand positions, and other interesting motions. The motions are repeated front, back, and side. Please tell us what you think! Should we make the high resolution version available for purchase? At what price? Low Resolution Sample:
If you have any interest in the human form or are looking for a figure reference that will help you create artwork without spending a fortune on modeling fees, we think you will find Art Models 8 to be a genuinely useful addition to your library. Please take a look. Thank you! 9/1/2013
Customers asked for more "practical" poses and described them as thoughtful or introspective; passionate and emotionally themed; portraits and close-ups; more relaxed everyday positions; and a range of body types and ethnicities, all in a modest style.

The Pyramids at Giza are truly a world class feature. Spend time walking the areas around them. View the Sphinx from many angles. Take lots of pictures. But do beware........... nearly all the locals in the area will want you to take their picture. Then they will not let you go until you have given them some money. Do not take a photo of them unless you are prepared to pay them for it. report a problem

Existing Customers: For those customers who currently own our products, Progressive Industries provides technical support 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
Download Instructions: Instruction manuals for our products are available in a pdf file format and may be downloaded. Please contact us for manuals on 'B' models.
The Progressive Industries story began 12 years ago when a full-time RV-er determined there had to be a better way to provide electrical protection to the new generation of RV's that now included high-end electronic equipment. That vision lead him to design, engineer and manufacture several products that offer state-of-the-art, reliable electrical protection for today's RV-ers. Since those early beginnings, the company has grown and expanded its product line to include high quality, innovative electrical adapters and connectors for RV's. Still today, the company remains privately owned by the original RV-er.
At Progressive Industries, Customer Service is paramount. We stand by all of our products, and offer customer service 365 days a year, including after-hours technical support to those RV-ers who need assistance with our products. However, please understand that Progressive Industries' normal business hours are Monday through Friday, 9AM to 5PM EST, and all general information and questions are gladly welcomed during this time. After hours and weekend support are for those customers that currently own one or more of our products and require technical support.
What sets Progressive Industries apart from its competitors? We are RV owners and we take notice of what the consumer's wants and needs are. This is something very few people who design products for this industry can say. This experience carries over into every design and minute detail to give the RV consumer the best possible products that simply make sense. At Progressive Industries it is not just about developing a product based on the cost and profit, it is about the quality and reliability, especially when it comes to electrical-related products.
Our philosophy is simple: The quality of the product is long remembered after the price is forgotten.

Spare Key Needed
Ford Owners Club - Ford Forums
Ford Models
Ford KA / StreetKA Club
March 28, 2012, 11:17 am
I have just bought a 2005 Streetka
However, it only came with one key.
Can someone tell me the cheapest way to get a duplicate?
(It is the 3 button, transponder type)
March 28, 2012, 8:19 pm
Cheapest and quickest way is to take your key into Timpsons or similar key cutting place, and they will copy your key. Cost me about £60. It will not be a remote key though.
March 28, 2012, 11:37 pm
I take it your original key looked like this?
This key blade is known as a tibbe key
You can buy new remote keys from eBay and then get a Mobile Auto Locksmith to cut and code it for you.
Do make sure the key is new, as ones with old transponders which have been programmed before may not reprogramme correctly.
I found that a problem with high street key cutters is that they clone your key rather than programming it into the car.
The problem with this is that if you ever want to add another key to your system then your ECU won't recognise the cloned key as a second one and will not unlock the learning mode on your car.
It will probably work out about the same as btmaldon has stated but will be processed at the car so there will be no doubt that it will fit / work.
Put it this way - Ford would chatge you far more and take a lot longer.
I added a spare (flip) key to my car when i bought it and it cost £20 for the key and £20 (mates rates) to cut and programme.
You could also buy one like this and then have yourself a nice flip key, far more classy i think.
April 8, 2012, 4:18 pm
I bought a new fob and had key cut and programmed to my focus 2 weeks ago at my local ford dealers. It cost me £140. I feel that it was well worth it as I only had one key and the only button working was the unlock button. I have now put the old one as a spare.

Once a powerful sea-trading city, Pisa is now most famous for the Leaning Tower of Pisa and the Field of Miracles upon which it resides. Nearly all who travel to Pisa end up seeing these sights. The Leaning Tower of Pisa is 182 feet tall and tilted about 15 feet off the proper axis. You can walk to the top of the Leaning Tower, which is an interesting experience due to the lean. The Field of Miracles contains the huge Duomo, a Baptistery with outstanding echoing acoustics, the Camposanto Cemetary with its dirt from the Holy Land, and of course the Leaning Tower of Pisa. This area was central to Pisan life as it contained the buildings that play an important role in major events and ceremonies (christening, marriage, death). You can read more about these places in our Pisa travel guide.
Questions answered about visiting Pisa
Travel Tips from people who've been to Pisa
Be sure to stop by Cinque Terre on the way to Pisa because you can just fly by and not notice these really cool little towns on the way. Great beaches and really picturesque places to walk/ take pictures or whatever. Good tip? (+3) This is a fact, that many of the bell towers in Italy are also leaning for one reason or another. (According to the The Guinness Book of World Records the Tower of Suurhusen in Germany is leaner than the Leaning Tower of Pisa ???). But none of them famous enough as this one, the 55m high, white marble leaning campanile with an inclination of 5° in southern direction. In the past it was widely believed that the inclination of the campanile was part of the project ever since its beginning, but it is not so. Incidentally, it started leaning before it was even finished. The reason was the shifting soil as grounding. The builders tried to compensate the leaning, but without any succes. However, the lean is greater at the bottom than at the top. If you look at the tower from the appropriate direction you may notice it is really not perfectly straight on one angle. A lot of work has gone into its maintenance in the last 50 years to stop it from leaning further, for example injecting concrete into the ground underneath. I have not heard whether these efforts have been completely successful. It is difficult to predict whether it will fall or not, however, Pisa without the tower would be Venice without the water!!! One more fact has to be added: also Galilei has been reported to have dropped bullets with different mass off the tower and proved that the speed of the freefall is independent from the mass of the bullets. I think a visit to Pisa won't be complete for you without climbing the tower, which is not so easy, because there is some limit of climbers per day. It is the best to check in advance to make sure it is open when you go and reserve your place in advance (highly recommended!!!!). Opening hours in high season 8:30am - 8:30pm, last entry 8pm. For detailed informations check the Website. Admission costs €15 (€17 if you book online in advance). Online booking: http://boxoffice.opapisa.it/Torre/index.jsp Good tip? (0) Maybe one of the worlds most monumental cities, Pisa is SWARMING with street 'merchants'. Be wary when they approach you, they are not know to steal from you, but their 'sales tactics' are quite annoying. The second you get off your bus or train, there are a lot of these guys running around, putting figurines and fake designer sunglasses in your hands, telling you it is a gift and then asking for money. Try your best not to let them ruin your day in Pisa, but they are hardly forgettable. Though, it can be quite a sight to watch hundreds of these guys grab up all their 'products' in cloths as the police stroll down the street, only to set them back up the SECOND the cops pass by.

Order This, Not That: Subway
by Dana Angelo White in Dining Out, January 26, 2009When it comes to fast food, sandwiches seem like a smart choice, and in many cases, they are. There are still some menu items that might surprise you. So when dining at Subway, the king of quick sandwiches, we suggest…
ORDER: The Fresh Fit options
The subs on the Fresh Fit menu contain less than 375 calories (without cheese or mayonnaise). Go for ones with less sodium such as the Veggie Delite, Oven Roasted Chicken Breast or Roast Beef. Load up on fresh vegetables for toppings (to boost your nutrients), and get a six-inch sandwich on wheat bread. Avoid the wraps — they have more calories and sodium. For condiments, try mustard or a small amount of oil and vinegar. Ditch mayo and other creamy sauces and dressings. Complete the meal with a small bag of baked chips or pretzels and a calorie-free drink.
NOT: A tuna sub, footlongs or the extra soup and cookies
A six-inch tuna sub has 530 calories, 31 grams of fat and 7 grams of saturated fat thanks to all the mayonnaise. A footlong ham sub has almost 600 calories and more than a day's worth of sodium. Extras like soups and cookies will add hundreds of calories to your meal, so stick to the sandwiches.
Check out the Subway menu's full nutrition information.

Sign up online for a downloadable PDF copy of the Green Guide at www.countyofkane.org/recycling and print your own copy.
Pick up a copy at local Village, Township, or City Halls; at City and Village Public Works Buildings; at your local Library; or at Kane County Government Center, Building A, 1st floor, Recycling Office. The guide will be available after April 18th.
Call Jennifer Jarland, Kane County Recycling Coordinator, at (630) 208-3841 or email email@example.com to get on the mailing list to receive a copy (or a number of copies) each year in April, mailed directly to your home or business.

Google Book Settlement: information for Monash staff and studentsNote: This information was prepared by Monash as an explanatory guide to assist Monash authors understand the Settlement. It is not a substitute for the terms of Settlement that govern the rights of claimants. Please refer to the Settlement website at http://www.googlebooksettlement.com Update October 2012The Association of American Publishers agreed to drop their suit against Google. Terms of the settlement were confidential but it meant publisher groups stopped suing over Google books. The authors groups, represented by the Author's Guild continued their class action against Google. However in a related case, the Hathi Trust were granted summary judgment against the Author's Guild for their retention and use of scanned copies of authors works they received from libraries that were partners with Google in Google Books. For more information on these developments see: Google Scanning Is Fair Use Says Judge - Publishers Weekly Pubishers drop massive book-scanning suit - Authors Guild Update April 2011Justice Denny Chin has rejected the Google Book settlement. This means that the settlement cannot go ahead under the original terms (as listed below). The options for the parties are to continue litigation, drop the litigation or come to a new settlement taking into account some of the objections to the original settlement. We will inform staff when it is clear which option is being pursued. Those wishing to opt-out of any scanning of their works can still contact Google using the details listed below.
The Google Book Settlement ('the Settlement') is relevant to any Monash staff and students who have authored and published works prior to January 2009. In order to find out whether your works are involved, to have a say in how Google will use your works or to receive compensation for past use of your work and/or payments for Google's future use of your works, you need to read the advice presented on this and linked pages and take appropriate action. BackgroundIn 2004 Google started a digitisation and online publishing project, the 'Google Library project', scanning the collections of various participating libraries across the world. The scanning project included both works out of copyright and works still in copyright. No copyright permissions were sought from owners or authors of works still in copyright. In 2005 a consortium of copyright holder groups in the USA filed a class action on behalf of North American authors and publishers for copyright infringement. This action has, earlier this year, been settled out of court: the Google Book Settlement. Though the class action was decided in the USA and by North American representative groups, it nevertheless affects and applies to all authors and publishers worldwide impacted by Google's activities in the USA. Terms of the SettlementUnder the terms of the Settlement, Google will continue their scanning and online publishing project but has to:
Works covered by the SettlementNot all copyright works scanned or earmarked for future use by Google are included in the Settlement. The Settlement does not cover periodicals or journals, sheet music or pictorial works other than illustrations in children's books. The Settlement also excludes certain unpublished works (collections of personal papers, diaries, letters) but DOES include dissertations or theses which Google has considered to be 'available to the public' (even if technically unpublished). Of particular relevance to whether a work will be scanned or put online by Google is whether Google considers the work to be 'available in print' or 'out of print' in USA. Where a work is deemed out of print/unavailable, the Settlement authorises Google to scan and make various online uses of that work (subject to the Terms of Settlement set out above) including
DeadlinesThere were strict deadlines for the actions owners (including exclusive licencees) could take as part of the Settlement (see below). However as the settlement was rejected, these deadlines no longer apply. But staff wishing to opt out of the settlement should still contact Google as the settlement may be approved in a modified form at a later date.
You can find FAQs provided the Settlement administrators (Rust Consulting, Inc.) at http://www.googlebooksettlement.com For authors who are also members of the Copyright Agency, they have also provided an overview of the Settlement and advice for members on their website. What Monash authors need to do:All Monash authors are advised to go to the Settlement website, register as an author (by creating an account on the website) and search for their works on the Settlement Book Registry . Creating an account, and searching and claiming works on the Settlement website is a fairly simple process. (NB Please do not use your Monash username and password when creating your account). To assist you in your search you may also wish to use these lists (excel file format) which Monash has obtained from the Google Book database, listing works which Google associated with Monash University as publisher. Note however that Google has entered author name data in the format: First name - Middle name - Family name. (Tip: Use the 'Find' function to locate your name)
If your works feature within the Settlement database:Where your works have been published by external publishers (ie not published or produced here at Monash) the publisher may own or control copyright under an agreement you entered into with them. So you should contact the publishers as soon as possible to consult with them about the Settlement for those works. Where your work has been published here at Monash (as part of a departmental series for example) you are likely to be the copyright owner. Please check the terms of any publishing agreements undertaken within the Monash publishing unit or Department relating to the work to verify whether you retain copyright. If you are confident that you retain copyright in your work, then consider the following options:
Remaining in the Settlement and managing your works: what to do if your work has already been scanned by GoogleEligibility of the one-off compensation paymentTo see if you are eligible for a one-off compensation payment, ascertain whether your work has already been scanned before 5 May 2009: your initial search results from the Settlement website should indicate this and/or you can cross reference or check using the excel file provided above. If the work has already been scanned, you can claim your work before January 5, 2010, through the Settlement website's online registry or in writing directly to the Settlement administrators (address at the foot of this page and also available on the Settlement website) to receive the one-off 'damages' compensation payment for works already scanned. If you miss this deadline you will miss out on this compensation payment. However, you can still claim your works anytime after this date, and you can still receive a share of revenue earned from Google's future uses of your work ('display' and 'non-display' uses in the terminology of the Settlement) depending on what you allow Google to do with your works when you claim them. And provided you do so before April 5, 2011, you can still request Google to 'remove' your works from their database and online 'display' uses. Requests made after April 5, 2011 are not binding on Google. Claiming your work and authorising Google to make use of your work.You can, in fact, claim your works at any time. But to be eligible to receive a share of revenue earned from Google's ongoing or future use of your work you need to have claimed that work within five years of that work earning that revenue for Google and (obviously) you need to have permitted Google to use your work for those 'display uses' which generate revenue (ie subscription online access sales and advertising). When you claim your work, you need to check whether Google has deemed it to be 'in print/commercially available' or 'out of print/unavailable commercially'. Again, the results from your initial search on the Settlement website may indicate whether Google have declared your works to be in or out of print; or you can check / cross reference your search by searching the excel files provided above on this page.
For works deemed by Google to be out-of-print, an author/owner may at any time change their mind and turn 'on' or 'off' the 'display uses' (full online access, subscriber sales, advertising, etc) for the work. If you seek to prevent your work from being scanned at all - or if you seek to totally 'remove' a scanned version of your work from the Google database – you must make that request for 'removal' in writing to Google before April 5, 2011. Totally removing your work from the database means Google would not be able to scan it at all; or, if it has already been scanned, Google would have to delete the scanned copy from it's servers and so would any participating libraries that receive Google's 'Library digital copies'. If your work has already been scanned and you send a request for removal after that date, Google may retain the scanned copy of your work on it's servers, using the work for 'internal purposes' and for non-display uses (ie only making available the basic bibliographical data online and /or very small 'snippets' from the work) but will only refrain from making broader online use of your work if you specifically exclude your work from the 'display uses'.

AIW Service Handler API
Note: :This API is not part of the public SDK. It can be found in the SDK API Plug-in.
The purpose of the AIW Service Handler API is to offer the core functionality of the Application Interworking framework to the AIW consumer applications. This is done by using a Service Handler object, which is the core of the AIW framework.
Use cases
The most important use cases of AIW Service Handler API are the following:
Creating a Service Handler instance
Attaching interests
Base services Menu services
Initializing menu pane
Executing service commands
Base service commands
Menu service commands
Deleting the Service Handler instance
Example code
Creating a Service Handler instance For using AIW Service Handler API, the consumer application needs first to create a Service Handler instance.
// Create a service handler instance.
iServiceHandler = CAiwServiceHandler::NewL();
Attaching interests
When the Service Handler instance exists, the consumer application's interest must be attached to it before AIW service commands can be executed. Attach needs usually be done only once, and a good place for it is the consumer application's ConstructL() method.
Base services
Base service interests can be attached by using CAiwServiceHandler::AttachL().
// Attach base service interests.
The interest is defined in a resource file, see AIW Criteria API for details.
Menu services
Menu service interests can be attached by using CAiwServiceHandler::AttachMenuL().
iServiceHandler->AttachMenuL(R_AIWEXAMPLE_MENU, R_AIWEXAMPLE_MENUINTEREST);
A menu pane and an interest containing menu related criteria items need to be defined in a resource file, see AIW Criteria API for details.
Initializing Menu pane
Menu pane containing AIW menu items needs to be initialized. This is done in consumer application's DynInitMenuPaneL() method. See example below:
void CAIWExampleAppUi::DynInitMenuPaneL( TInt aResourceId, CEikMenuPane *aMenuPane )
// First, offer menu pane to AIW framework. It might be the case, that the
// user is opening an AIW submenu. In this case, the AIW handles the menu.
if ( iServiceHandler->HandleSubmenuL( *aMenuPane ) )
// Add your normal (non-AIW) menu initialisation code here...
// Let AIW provider add its menu items to the menu.
In this case, the menu may contain an AIW submenu (i.e. a submenu containing only AIW menu items). The submenu is handled by the AIW framework, so if CAiwServiceHandler::HandleSubmenuL() returns ETrue, nothing needs to be done.
The actual menu pane initialization is done by CAiwServiceHandler::InitializeMenuPaneL(). Note that the EAIWExampleCmdLast should be defined as the last enumeration value, the Service Handler uses it as the basis of the menu command ids it generates.
Executing service commands
AIW service commands can be executed by calling CAiwServiceHandler::ExecuteServiceCmdL() for base services, and CAiwServiceHandler::ExecuteMenuCmdL() for menu services. The methods are blocking by default. However, it is also possible that a provider works asynchronously. In that case, the consumer can implement a callback method, which is called when the provider finishes, for example. See AIW Criteria API for more details of asynchronous service calls.
Base service commands
Base service commands can be executed by calling CAiwServiceHandler::ExecuteServiceCmdL(). An example is shown below (see AIW Generic Parameter API for how to set up input parameters):
KAiwCmdMnShowMap, // The service command.
inParamList, // Input parameter list.
iServiceHandler->OutParamListL(), // No output parameters used.
0, // No options used.
NULL); // No need for callback
Menu service commands
The consumer application's "AppUI" class has a callback method HandleCommandL(TInt aCommand). When it is called, the consumer application should first try to identify if the command is a normal menu command. If the command is not recognized, it should be forwarded to the AIW framework. This is usually done in the default branch of the switch statement.
void CAIWExampleAppUi::HandleCommandL(TInt aCommand)
case ESomeNonAIWCommand:
// Execute command.
// ...
case EEikCmdExit:
// Forward the command id to AIW, i.e. execute AIW menu
// service command.
iServiceHandler->InParamListL() // No input parameters
iServiceHandler->OutParamListL(), // No output parameters
0, // No options used.
NULL); // No need for callback
Deleting the Service Handler instance
The Service Handler instance needs to be deleted when it is not used anymore. Usually this is done in the destructor of the consumer application.
// Delete the service handler instance.
delete iServiceHandler;

Rapid move toward shorter leases on business premises
The average length of a small business lease has been reduced by more than 12 months in the last two years, as business owners looked to retain their flexibility, according to research from the British Property Federation (BPF).
A BPF study of 91,000 tenancies found the average lease length for a small firm dropped to 4.1 years in 2009-10, compared to 5.4 years in 2007-8. Cutting the length of business leases has been a trend since the early 1990s, when a typical lease length was between 20 and 25 years.
Undervalued properties preventing bank lending to small firms
A small business support group is warning that inaccurate property valuations are preventing many smaller firms from accessing affordable bank lending.
The Forum of Private Business believes that banks are often under-valuing properties when considering them as security for business loans.
