Paul O'Brien (born 14 April 1978) is a South African born Australian actor.
Early life[edit]
Paul O'Brien was born in South Africa, and grew up in Australia. As a child he suffered from a stutter and blinking problem and was picked on for his thick South African accent. His nickname as a child was "toughie" as he was often getting in fights. He spent several years on the Gold Coast, with his family. He attended first St Kevins in Benowa and then Somerset and Marymount Colleges.
Paul O'Brien has a fan base in 56 territories around the world from his 4 years on Home and Away, where he played the loveable cop Jack Holden with other Australian actors Chris Hemsworth, Isabel Lucus, Sharnie Vinson, Todd lasance... The 'Jack and Martha' on-screen couple were said to be the most popular couple in 20 years of the show. Since then he went on to appear on Underbelly, neighbours, but avoided many roles as he wanted to reinvent himself and not be typecast as the 'pin-up boy' or the 'nice cop'. In these years, he created other roles for himself and pursued a film career. He is known as 'the chameleon' amongst his acting colleagues; people would not recognize him in different roles he would play. He recently played a bearded ex-assassin in the feature film Message man, which was filmed in Indonesia and is currently in post production. He was able to flex his knife and fighting skills as he battles to save a family from pirates and a wealthy businessman who has put a bounty on his head. Paul played his first American speaking role as a superhero, in "The Subjects"
JACK & FRANKI: ACT 1 is an exciting project for Paul as many people are unaware of his comic timing. Further, the character of Jack is said to amplify the goofy, wacky and vulnerable side of Paul O'Brien.
Also known for:
- Logie Winner (Most Popular Actor)
- Two Logie Nominations (Most Outstanding Actor)
- Nominated for best Actor - Peace Keeper
- Voted sexiest man on T.V (TV Week)
- Runner up Cleo Bachelor of the year
Paul appeared in the first in the first of three Underbelly Files movies 'Tell them Lucifer was here' playing a Melbourne detective who was gunned down whilst on patrol.[1]
O'Brien was named the runner-up, behind comedian Andy Lee in the 2006 Cleo Bachelor of the Year competition.[2]
In 2008, O'Brien took part in the third series of It Takes Two, an Australian reality show in which celebrities compete against each other by singing. O'Brien was partnered with pop singer Jade MacRae. The finished in fourth position.[3]
As well as acting, O'Brien runs an acting studio in St Kilda, Melbourne where he holds private lessons, showreel courses and casting director workshops.
O'Brien appeared in the movie John Doe and is filming Message Man in Jakarta. In October 2013, it was announced that O'Brien had joined the cast of Neighbours in the guest role of Eric Edwards.[4]

The epidemic of unarmed blacks being killed by police...
I'd like to see the actual numbers for this alleged "epidemic."
One cannot avoid something that has already happened. Conservatives have been warning about the militarization of local police forces for years but we were all crazy until it started impacting the left's "peaceful" protests.
In response to:
And just who wold we elect? There is no one in the leadership of the Dems or the Repubs who gives a damn about the Constitution, hence, no one they would support who would either.
What if you wrote a column that wasn't just a string of inane questions?
Because the university administration offices don't want people knowing what a problem rape and sexual assault is on college campuses.
Michelle is not happy in the White House because she just isn't happy. She wouldn't be happy anywhere doing anything. That's what being filled with hatred and resentment will to do you.
Things aren't close to 'normal' because this is the new normal. I said when Obama was elected that it would be ten years before things straightened out. It seems I was overly optimistic.
I could not care less about any memo. If their prohibition doesn't meet the requirements of the law I would ignore it. On the other hand, I never eat there anyway.and can't imagine why that would change so they're not losing business from me.
I also carry a 1911. There are several manufactures which produce fine examples. Colt is overpriced. You pay for the roll mark on the slide and get mediocre fit and finish for your trouble.
Principled conservatives need not apply. We have Republicans aplenty.
Obamnacare is not insurance. It never was. It's a medical payment plan wrapped up in an income redistribution scheme. Nothing more - nothing less.

This hotel is a beautiful, old, authentic, romantic building in the heart of the french quarter. Our room was beautiful with chic decor and a gorgeous bathroom. We had to park in the paid parking ($20 for 24 hours) but it was just a quick walk to the hotel. The staff were super friendly and helpful, and overall we had a fantastic stay. The only caviet is that they will charge a $150 deposit upon check in that will be dropped back in your account "3 to 5 days after checkout" but it's worth it to stay in this beautiful treasure of a hotel. And the deposit was returned to my card the evening of our check out :) we partyed all sat night on Bourbon and when we came back to our hotel the streets and inside was very quiet so no noise to put up with. overall we had a fantastic stay. ...

4.5 Sony Vaio FZ21S motoman | 16/12/2007 | See all motoman's reviews (3) This was bought tp replace an ageing IBM laptop. It rivals the Apple Macs in looks I have to say. Vista is o.k. As usual there are no recovery disks in the box, You have to make a set after downloading any updates that are required for the preloaded software, Although Sony could not have made it easier to do this. Boot up the machine connect to the internet and the Sony software does it all for you, Gets the downloads and then you just make the disks.This is a very fast machine, With the 2gb of ram it just flys through multi tasking jobs. Tha graphics card is fine for playing games, Call of duty was no problem at medium settings so other games should be fine also.The blue ray player is a nice addition I have been unable to test it yet as I am waiting on some films to arrive. The only slight quibble is the lack of an spidf port to allow you to connect to an older amp for 5.1 surround sound while watching your fancy hi-def films. I am presuming that Sony are expecting anyone to output the sound & vision through the HDMI port. So all in very happy with it wireless connection to internet was great and the X-Black screen is the best in the business for clarity. So would have gave it 5 stars if the spidif port was there. My vote 4.5 out of 5.
4.5 Top Spec Laptop for half the price! Batcatz | 04/12/2007 | See all Batcatz's reviews (1) I've been looking for a laptop for over a year. It took me so long because I wanted top spec, but did not want to pay top spec prices of almost £2k. I looked at the Macbook Pro and the Sony Vaio AR.... then I found this one.You get a lot for your money! Core 2 Duo T7500, 200GB hard drive, Blu-Ray combo drive and the HDMI port. You can hook this up to your flat screen TV, buy a wireless keyboard and mouse and check your emails from the comfort of your sofa or stream video to your TV etc. I watched a Blu-ray DVD and was amazed at the quality on the laptop screen. I think it looks better than my TV!My only gripe is the sound from the speakers is poor when watching a Blu-ray DVD. This is easily rectified by using headphones or buying some external speakers. Seems fine for anything else e.g You Tube and music. Blu-ray sounded great through headphones.When you register your laptop you will get a Spiderman 3 Blu-ray DVD sent to you free.I am very pleased with my purchase.
4.5 Sexy machine, no real complaints Sethenvir | 31/10/2007 | See all Sethenvir's reviews (2) Well lets see....Its slim and very light and has just about every slot/port your likely to need built in. It has media control buttons, something you only tend to see with actual keyboards, add to this the sexy, shiny colour scheme and its a very pretty machine.Its stats? Well their listed above and for the price again - very nice. It does seem to be performing as well as you'd expect with those stats as well NOW except....Gripe one - Sony makes some sexy machines but they sure seem to know how to load them up with junk. If your not a beginner when it comes to computers and you like your machines a set way get your format/OS disc to hand and be prepaired to start off with a complete reinstall.Gripe two - the touchpad. Touchpads are often a bit iffy but this one seems a bit more so than usual. I plan to be getting a proper gaming mouse for this soon personally so its not a BIG issue but the pad is extremely unresponsive at times and far TOO responsive at others. You'll be forcing the pointer to move one minute then the smallest brush will accidentally click off whatever your doing and very possibly in some cases open multiple instances of an application another minute. I can't remember if my old Time laptop was like this at the start but maybe it'll balance out with age...Over all this is a VERY nice machine still - one I can see myself using for years to come.

Over the course of four days starting Monday, April 13, VMware brought together some of its top partners and nearly all its top executives to discuss the future of the data center.
The two main topics of conversation were VMware's cloud-computing technology and vSphere, which is VMware's next version of its virtualization technology aimed mainly at helping customers get their IT infrastructures ready for cloud computing.
Details of the upcoming vSphere product family are hush-hush until early next week, but some information from the vendor did emerge during the partner summit.
Turn the page to learn more about vSphere, the cloud, and how VMware expects partners to both help drive and benefit from the new technologies.

MagicSpells is a Minecraft Bukkit plugin that creates magic spells your players can use. Its main purpose is to give your players access to certain abilities that you might not want to give them unlimited access to. However, instead of just giving them access to boring commands, they instead get more interesting spells. Each spell can be configured in many ways:
- Reagent costs (the cost of using the spell, including items, mana, health, hunger, experience, and item durability)
- Cooldowns (the amount of time a player must wait between uses)
- Durations (how long certain effects last)
- Ranges (how far away spells can be used from their target)
- Many more options, depending on the spell
Spells can be cast by using the /cast command, swinging a configurable wand item, or both. It's also possible to have them triggered from other actions the player may take. It's all customizable.
Before a player can cast a spell, they must already know it. There are several ways a player can learn a spell:
- Taught with the teach spell
- Learned from a spellbook
- Learned from a tome
- Gained from a grant permission
- Purchased from a shop
- Being a server op (they know all spells) For example, a server op can teach Bob the blink spell by typing: ''/cast teach bob blink''.
Once a spell is learned, it can be cast either by using the ''/cast'' command or by using a wand item. Now that Bob knows the blink spell, he can either cast it by command, by typing ''/cast blink'', or he can cast it with a wand item. To select the spell, he holds the wand in his hand and right clicks. Right clicking will cycle through any spells assigned to the item he is holding. When he has the one he wants, he left clicks to cast.
If Bob does not have the required reagents for the spell, or if he has cast it recently and it is still on cooldown, he will not be able to cast the spell and will instead receive an error message.
If mana is enabled, a player can use the ''/mana'' command to see how much mana they currently have. Mana can also be configured so it is displayed on the experience bar.

Frequently Asked Questions
Help me! Why isn't it working?
If - after reading through the information available on this website - you can't figure out why something isn't working, please take the time to submit a proper help request. You can post your request in the MagicSpells forum. You should provide the following information:
- The CraftBukkit version you're using.
- The MagicSpells version you're using.
- Which permissions plugin (if any) you are using.
- The error in the console, if there is one.
- Your config file(s). Please don't put them directly into the post, use a service like http://pastebin.com and just post the link here.
But I need help urgently!
You can try joining the IRC channel #magicspells on EsperNet.
It says I need reagents whenever I cast a spell! Where do I get reagents?
One of the main ideas behind this plugin is to give players cool abilities, but with a cost. The reagents are the spell's cost. This can be configured in the config.yml file individually for every spell. The config option name is "cost". You can also give yourself the magicspells.noreagents permission node.
Why can't my players cast spells? Why does it say "You cannot cast that spell right now" when I try to cast any spell?
Please make sure your permissions are all set up correctly. Look at the permission page for more information. This is usually caused when you are missing magicspells.cast permissions.
Why can't I target players with spells?
There are two main reasons this occurs. Most targetable spells have a target-players option that usually defaults to false. You will need to change this to true to be able to target players with spells. Also make sure your players don't have the magicspells.notarget permission node.
Why don't temporary permissions work with WorldEdit/WorldGuard/CommandBook?
Open the wepif.yml file in your server's root folder. In the section under resolvers, remove all of the entries except DinnerPermsResolver. Then restart your server and see if it works now.
I have a great spell idea! Will you add it?
Please tell me about it by posting in the spell request forum! I can't guarantee that I'll make it, but if it's a feasible idea, I'll definitely consider it. I'm always looking for new spell ideas. Note that I may not respond directly to your idea, but I always read the suggestions.
I know some Java, can I write my own spells?
Yes, you can! Please look at this custom spell creation guide to learn how.
I've found a bug! What do I do?
Please submit a ticket! Please include your CraftBukkit build number, any error in the console, the situation that caused the error (if known), and if you think it's applicable, the list of plugins you use.

hi guys i need help.
tell me what is doing this option ( num-uses: 10 )
Last edited Dec 10, 2014 by wander2072 -
So with a failure to receive a response of the actual MagicSpells forum, I ask here hoping someone might know what's up.
Im currently running Bukkit 1.8(From the Spigot update), and I've found that certain custom-made spells no longer work. They were all made by the same person, but they just simply don't work. There's no error message in the console when I try to cast them, and the only thing out of the ordinary regarding the plugin is this message:
"[21:45:21 WARN]: [MagicSpells] This MagicSpells version is not fully compatible with this server version. [21:45:21 WARN]: [MagicSpells] Some features have been disabled."
There's no consistency between the spell types, and others of the same type work. I don't really know why they'd all of the sudden stop working, but if anyone can help me figure out why, I'd really appreciate it!
@ZwPBerserk: Go
Use the dance-casting option in the general config (Or something like that, cant remember)
Is it possible to cast spells through mouse click combo's if not, this would be awesome.
I've been having a few perm issues lately.
The most notable and one that i haven't been able to find a work around is:
I have a spell that i don't want people to learn or teach, but i want them to be allowed to cast it via a scroll.
I create a 'GATE' scroll to TP them to spawn, kind of a way to control the abuse of /spawn.
Now i give them
- magicspells.cast.gate
they use the scroll and the "Unable to use this scroll right now." appears there are no console errors either.
if i give them
- magicspells.*
everything works fine.
Are there permissions for this plugin that are not covered in http://nisovin.com/magicspells site? I've searched everywhere. Even checked the magicspells.jar plugin.yml just in case the perms would be listed in there, like in some other plugins.
I'm nothing but a lone wolf, misunderstood and labeled as dangerous.
Hello, this needs a little updating for spigot 1.8 that just came out. Some spells broke. Just to give you a heads up :P
Hi! Where can i download the magic shop addon?
more relevant to the purpose of this page:
is it possible to make it use mana from a different plugin? my server has RacesAndClasses and I want to make it use mana from that plugin

UPDATE: J.P. Morgan Downgrades Zagg as 3Q Results Align with Lowered Expectations
In a report published Wednesday, J.P. Morgan analyst Paul Coster downgraded the rating on Zagg (NASDAQ: ZAGG) from Overweight to Neutral, and lowered the price target from $7.00 to $5.00.
In the report, J.P. Morgan noted, "ZAGG's 3Q results aligned with lowered expectations following the profit warning on October 10. The company did, however, trim 2013 revenue and EBITDA guidance for the third time in three quarters, so momentum is not good. Looking out to 2014 and 2015, we assume no growth, flattish margins, and stable EBITDA and EPS. The core InvisibleShield business is declining, and new product/new channel initiatives have to be successful to ensure a return to growth. Execution has been mixed, so we are taking a somewhat skeptical view. Our price target goes to $5.00, and we are downgrading ZAGG to Neutral."
Zagg closed on Tuesday at $4.72.

http://news.aol.com/topnews/article...-stupidity-pill/n20060807125109990003?cid=936 Scientist Tests 'Anti-Stupidity' Pill Reuters BERLIN (Aug. 7) - A German scientist has been testing an "anti-stupidity" pill with encouraging results on mice and fruit flies, Bild newspaper reported Saturday. It said Hans-Hilger Ropers, director at Max-Planck-Institute for Molecular Genetics in Berlin, has tested a pill thwarting hyperactivity in certain brain nerve cells, helping stabilize short-term memory and improve attentiveness. "With mice and fruit flies we were able to eliminate the loss of short-term memory," Ropers, 62, is quoted saying in the German newspaper, which has dubbed it the "world's first anti-stupidity pill."
It's supposed to work on mice and fruit flies, I don't think it's strong enough for Chayut. It might be just strong enough for Deion to realize he needs to fire his Agent though.
Are you kidding? To the contrary, they're trying to isolate an amount small enough for Chayut to prevent overdose.
You're judging by the insignificance of the creature. I'm judging by the size of the stupid. He's huge stupid, he needs a huge dose.
I have a non-scientific answer to the "Agent Problem" http://img391.imageshack.us/img391/8306/1146710306907te5.gif
This, indeed, is a conundrum. I was thinking in terms of brain size (specifically, Chayut's being dwarfed by that of a fruit fly). So the question remains how a dosage should be administered considering the fragility and limitations of such an infinitessimally tiny recepticle. But your point is well taken regarding the size of the stupid. That would indicate an apparent disparity between physical brain capacity and its ability to generate massive miscalculations on a grand scale. I guess we'll leave that to the scientists, or Branch, to figure out.
Even including the Postons representing Lawyer and Law ... has ANY agent for a Pat ever taken the obloquy that this Chayut creature has earned?
Is it just me or does anyone else feel that player agents are killing all pro sports? These guys care NOTHING about the overall game, the teams, the league, or -- least of all -- the fans. They care about one thing and one thing only: more money for *their* players. Everyone else can go to hell as far as they are concerned. Talk about leeches. "Fair value" for players? How about "fair prices" for tickets!!

Tips for Learning English to French Translations
If you find yourself wanting to learn French, you are certainly not alone in your endeavor. The French language is among the most widely-spoken in the world, and France is rou…tinely the world's top tourist destination. There are, however, difficulties in translating from English to French, so to ultimately learn the French translation of English words and phrases, here are several recommendations to show you how.Millions of English-speaking people in the United Kingdom decide to take French as a second language, and England and France, separated by the English Channel, are only 21 miles apart. With millions of French people traveling to the United Kingdom and millions of British people traveling to France, interchangeable, bilingual dialog is widespread, and guidebooks prove incredibly useful in other instances. If you are someone merely wanting to learn the language, online programs, classroom-based language programs and a English-French dictionary are useful, but should you have a French, English-speaking companion willing to help you, your rate of learning is swift. If you are living in a bilingual English and French country like Canada, there are many resources available to immerse yourself, although Quebec remains the country's only majority French-speaking province. Translating English words into any foreign language is sometimes difficult. Fortunately, French is a Latin-based, or Romance language, and many English words have their origin in these languages, French being no exception. Up to 30 percent of English words have a French origin, and the French equivalent often involves the same or a slightly different pronunciation. When you do encounter a word wherein the French variant is entirely different from English, do not become despondent; all it takes is a little practice and memorization.Learning a new language is never easy, and impatience and/or frustration is frequently a reason many people abandon their efforts in learning a language. As mentioned previously, initially translating a drastically different French equivalent of an English word (the word for water is "eau") is sometimes a daunting task to overcome, but if your heart is set on effortlessly translating English to French, study and constant attention to detail are a must. While the French language is also written in the Latin alphabet like English, accent-marks, of which there are four for vowels and one for a consonant, change the pronunciation of a word entirely if you speak and mispronounce. Many letters in French are also silent when pronounced as part of a word. If you are writing to a French-speaking person, one misplaced or absent accent mark is still understandable if the word is being used in the correct context, although this tends to draw some initial confusion.The key to seamlessly translating an English to a French word, apart from fluency, is confidence in yourself and persistent study. Immersion, be it living in a French-speaking country, involvement in language programs or consuming French media, can also be to your benefit. Sticking with learning a new a language reaps huge rewards if you have the ability to easily translate. Most universities have immersion-based world language departments. If you live near a university, seek out the help of a French professor or student tutors for resources and conversational help. (MORE)

Common Forms of French Greetings and When to Use Them
One of the most basic aspects of any language is the idea of greetings. They are some of the first things children learn to say. They are also some of the first things learned… with trying to absorb a new language. Here are some common French greetings to help students get started on the language's foundations and become acquainted with its particular feel.One of the most standard greetings in French is bonjour. Its direct translation is "good day." Yet, it can be used as a simple way to say hello in a formal manner. The word is also applicable to say "good afternoon" as well. Bonsoir on the other hand is used to say "good evening" since that is the direct translation of the word.Just as in English, there are always an informal version of greetings. Salut is one of the informal French greetings upon meeting a friend or family member. It roughly translates to "hi" rather than the more formal "hello." Still, it is important to only use this word to greet family or friends. Randomly saying it to a stranger is generally considered to be rude.Greetings can also go beyond simple versions of hello and good day. In fact, it is very common to exchange general pleasantries when greeting another person. This phrase roughly translates to "how are you?" This version of the phrase is for formal meetings though. It should be used when speaking to new acquaintances and strangers.There are informal versions of asking the state of being of another person. This particular phrase is the informal alternative. It too translates into a way of asking how an individual is doing. The phrase should only be used with family and friends though. With these people, it is appropriate to even start with this as a greeting rather than bonjour or salut.Introductions are relatively common upon greeting someone. This phrase is the first part of a sentence to give an easy self introduction. It straightforward translates to "I call myself." Yet, it is basically the French equivalent of "my name is." A person should simply insert his or her name at the end of the phrase to complete the sentence.When meeting a new person, it is only appropriate to express simple niceties. The terms enchante and enchantee are the French versions of that sentiment. They directly translate to "enchanted." However, they symbolize the phrase "nice to meet you." Enchante is for meeting a new person who is a man while enchantee is for a woman.Many commonalities exist between English and French. These links mean that there are relatively standard forms of behavior. Still, there are of course different terms and phrases according to the rules of the French language. The previous list is a great place to start learning about meeting new people while speaking French.While many French-speaking countries have their own rules of etiquette, most of them come from the traditional French customs. It is considered to be polite to say bonjour when greeting anyone, even a salesperson or clerk. In fact, it is even appropriate to mutter bonjour when boarding a bus to be heard by those within earshot. (MORE)

Basic French Words
Learning a new language can be difficult. For that reason, it is best to begin with the basics. Look to this guide for the most basic French words and phrases that are commonl…y used in daily speech. By familiarizing yourself with these words and phrases, you will be on your way to mastering the French language.Perhaps the simplest of basic French words are "oui" and "non," which directly translate to "yes" and "no," respectively. "Oui" is pronounced "wee," while "non" is pronounced as it is spelled.When saying the phrase "s'il vous plait," you are essentially saying "if you please" in French. This is pronounced as "seel voo play," and it may be used in the form of "oui, s'il vous plait" or "yes, please."If you are practicing French, you will undoubtedly encounter this word frequently. "Merci" translates directly as "thank you" and is pronounced "mehr-see."Even if you are not learning French, you have likely heard this word before. "Bonjour" means "hello," but it can also be used as a way to say "good morning" or "good afternoon." This word is pronounced "bon-zhoor."Adversely to "bonjour," "bonsoir" is used as a greeting in the evening and translates as "hello" or "good evening." This basic French word is pronounced "bon-swahr."Similarly to "bonjour," "au revoir" is a French word with which many people are familiar. This word is used as a way to say "goodbye" and is pronounced "oh re-vwahr."This basic French phrase is used to ask someone "how are you?" It is heard in a variety of settings and instances, but is commonly used as a greeting. This phrase is pronounced as "kom-manhn sah-va."This basic French word is one that follows a direct translation to English in that "excusez" means "excuse" and "moi" means "me." Therefore, saying "excusez-moi" is a way to say "excuse me." This word is pronounced "ex-kewzay mwah."This basic French phrase is one you may recite often when you are new to the world of French. As "je" means "I" and "comprends" means "understand," saying "je ne comprends pas" is a way of saying "I do not understand." This is pronounced "zher ner kon-prahng pah."This basic French word comes in handy when you need to apologize for something. "Desole" translates as "sorry." This word is pronounced "day-zo-lay."When learning English in elementary school, the basics of the five W's were taught early. These are who, what, where, when, and why. Of course, these words exist in the French language, but in different forms. "Qui" means "who" and is pronounced "kee." "Que" translates as "what," and it is pronounced "kay." "Ou" translates as "where" and is pronounced "oo." "Quand" translates as "when" and is pronounced "kahn." "Pourquoi" translates directly as "why," and it is pronounced "poor-kwah."There is a great deal of information to familiarize yourself with if you want to learn French. From verb tenses to the conjugation of words, it can easily become overwhelming. It is best to learn at your own pace and start with the basics. In following this short list of basic French words and phrases, you will soon feel comfortable incorporating French into your daily speech. With enough practice and determination, you will eventually master the French language.There are approximately 43,000 words in the French language. However, only about 300-400 of these words are used commonly in daily speech and rhetoric. (MORE)

Learn to Say Hello in French
Saying hello in the French language is often more than just a simple one-word greeting. Using and understanding the proper greeting conventions is necessary in order to integr…ate successfully with the French culture, as French populations regard communication and human connection in high esteem. Learn these proper French phrases and greeting standards to communicate successfully in French culture. "Hello" simply translates to "Bonjour" and serves as the most basic greeting in the French language. It also means "Good morning" or "Good afternoon" depending on the context. In the evening, after around 6 p.m., use "Bonsoir" instead. An informal greeting to use is "Salut," which loosely translates to "Hi."In French culture, always greet someone with one of the expressions listed above. It is considered impolite to encounter anyone and not greet them, even a complete stranger. When you know someone personally or are being introduced, it is customary to either shake hands or "Faire la bise," meaning kiss cheeks. Once exchanging a basic set of introductory greetings, it is customary to exchange a basic polite conversation. Use a formal question such as "Comment allez-vous?" or a casual one like "Ca va bien?" to say, "Is it going well?" Common responses are "Je vais bien" or "I'm fine," or "Pas mal" meaning "not bad."Eventually, you need to say goodbye after greeting someone. Common expressions for goodbye include the basic "Au revoir" or the even simpler "Salut." Easy-to-remember variations include "A demain" or "See you tomorrow," and "Bonne journee" or "Have a nice day."When visiting France or another French-speaking country, these phrases are used more often than any other. Keep in mind that cultural greeting standards are different, and do your best to adapt to the French style of greeting. Learning etiquette rules attached to French greetings is essential if you want to avoid a faux pas. For instance, don't assume you are on a first-name basis with a stranger. Address a man with "Bonjour, monsieur," and offer a polite "Bonsoir, madame" to a woman who has just made your acquaintance. (MORE)

French Phrases for Beginners
Need to know some quick French phrases? Whether you are learning French or about to travel to a French-speaking country, this article is here to help. From greeting people to …expressing confusion, the following French words and phrases will serve you well. Learn the words and phrases on this list and you will be well on your way to being able to hold a conversation in French. The first thing you'll need to know is how to say hello. In French, there are two ways to say hello. One is formal, and one is informal. The formal and most common way to say hello is bonjour. The second, informal way, is to to say salut. Salut is similar to "hi" or "hey" in English. You should only use salut if you are speaking with friends or people you know well. The second thing you should know is how to ask how somebody is doing. Again, there is both a formal and informal way to ask this question. The formal way to ask how somebody is doing is to say "Comment allez-vous?" The informal way to ask "How are you?" is "Ca'va?" Like salut, you would only ask "Ca'va" to friends or people you know well. A common response to either of these greetings is "Je vais bien," which means "I am doing well." A typical response to "Ca'va" is "Ca'va bien," which means, "It goes well." Another useful thing to know is how to comment on the weather. If it is a good day, you would say "Il fait beau," which means "It is beautiful." If it's hot, you can say "Il fait chaud." Chaud means hot in French. "Il fait froid," means "It is cold." "Il fait mauvais," means "It is bad." If you want to ask about the weather, you would say, "Quel temps fait-il?" This means, "How's the weather?" Expressing confusion is another useful thing to know. Before we get to that, however, you may want to know how to ask if somebody speaks English. To do this, you say "Parlez-vous Anglais?". If somebody is speaking French with you and you want them to repeat what they just said, you can say, "Repetez, s'il vous plait." This means "Repeat yourself, please." Finally, you may want to tell somebody you didn't understand what they just said, in which case you would say, "Je ne comprends pas." Finally, it's time to say goodbye. Au revoir is the most common and formal way to say goodbye in French. Alternatively, you may want to say "See you later". There are a few different ways to say see you later in French. The first is "A bientot," which means "Until soon." Another way is to say " A toute a l'heure." Finally, you can use the phrase: "A plus tard," which means "Until later."These French phrases will serve you well if you are beginning French or traveling in a French speaking country. Make sure you pay attention to the difference between informal and formal greetings. In French culture, it is always appropriate to address a person of respect or anybody you don't know formally. Informal greetings should be used only with friends or people you know very well. Learning how to speak French is extremely useful, particularly if you travel overseas often. French is spoken as an official language in many countries around the world, including France, Canada, Haiti, Belgium, Luxembourg, Central African Republic, the Congo, Gabon, Guinea, Mali, Monaco, Niger, Senegal, and Switzerland. French is the second unofficial language in many other countries, including Algeria, Tunisia, and Morocco. (MORE)

Useful French Phrases for Your Vacation
Famous for its wine, its cuisine, its fashion, and its position as the home to Paris, which is considered the "city of love," France is the most-visited tourist destination in… the world. Furthermore, French is an official language in 29 countries, so even if your travels do not take you to France, it is a very useful language to know. Approaching a new language may be challenging; however, it is possible to get your meaning across even with very basic knowledge. Thus, here are a few useful French phrases to help you get by, whether you are on vacation in a French-speaking country or you encounter a traveler who speaks French and requires your assistance.The first thing that you will want to do when you meet someone is say, "Hello." This can be accomplished by saying "Bonjour," or "Hello," which is appropriate at any time of day. In the evenings, you can also use "Bonsoir," which means "Good evening." If you would prefer a more casual greeting, you can use "Salut," which is equivalent to "Hi" in English. You will also want to introduce yourself by saying, "Je m'appelle Marie," which means "My name is Marie," but you will need to substitute your own name for Marie. To ask for someone else's name, you can use "Comment vous appellez-vous?" This phrase means "What is your name?"Once you have used a greeting and made your introductions, you can move on to the conversation itself. You might want to ask how someone is, and you can do this by saying "Ca va?" This phrase means "How are you?" If you are asked this question, you can reply, "Ca va bien," which is equivalent to "I am well." "Excusez-moi" which means "Excuse me" is a polite way to get someone's attention. If you want to ask for help or advice, you can use the phrase, "Pouvez-vous m'aider?" This phrase simply means "Can you help me?" Remember to say please, which is "S'il vous plait," and thank you, which is "Merci," when appropriate. It is also important to remember the two modes of address; the informal, which is mainly used for friends and family; for example, "Tu as un joli sourire." This phrase means, "You have a pretty smile." The formal is the plural form; "Vous avez un joli sourire," which still means "You have a pretty smile." However, this phrase uses the more polite form of address. If in doubt, you should always use the latter.If you are visiting a new place, it is useful to be able to ask for directions. The simplest way to do this in French is to ask, "Ou y a-t-il un hotel?" This phrase means "Where can I find a hotel?" You can also use "Ou est l'hopital?" This phrase means "Where is the hospital?" Another useful phrase is "Je cherche les toilettes," and this means "I'm looking for the restroom." If you are unsure how to pronounce the address you are trying to reach, you can also write it down and show it to someone. Then, you can continue by asking, "Ou se trouve cette adresse?" This phrase translates to "Where can I find this address?" However, you can simply say, "Je suis perdu," which means "I'm lost." To give directions, you can use phrases such as "C'est pres du restaurant," which means "It's near the restaurant." "C'est a cote de l'aeroport," means "It's next to the airport." You can also direct people using "Tournez a gauche," which means "Turn left," "Tournez a droite," which means "Turn right," or "Continuez tout droit," for "Go straight on." If you can't help the person who needs assistance, you can say, "Desole, je ne sais pas," which means "Sorry, I don't know."When you are shopping, the two main things that you will need to be able to say are "Puis-je avoir ceci, s'il vous plait?" This phrase means "Can I have this, please?" Another phrase is "Ca coute combien?" This phrase means "How much does it cost?" You might also want to ask if a shop carries a particular item, in which case you can say, "Avez-vous un parapluie?" This phrase means "Do you have an umbrella?" However, you can substitute the umbrella with the item that you are seeking.On a French menu, "entree" refers to the appetizer, "plat principal" is the main course, and "dessert" is dessert. The word for drinks is "boisson." When you are ordering, you might ask, "Puis-je avoir le boeuf bourguignon?" This phrase allows you to ask for the beef stew. You can also say, "J'aimerais une tarte tatin," which means that you would like a French apple pie. When you are ready to pay, you can use the phrase, "L'addition, s'il vous plait," in order to say, "Can I have the check, please?"The most commonly used French phrase for goodbye is "Au revoir," and this is appropriate in most situations. However, you can also use "Bonne nuit," in order to say goodnight, or you can say, "A bientot," which means "See you soon."If you are struggling to understand someone, you might want to alert them that you are not confident with your ability to speak French. To do this, you can say, "Je parle seulement un peu de Francais," which means "I only speak a little French." You also can say, "Je ne comprends pas," which means "I don't understand." You can also ask someone "Pouvez-vous repeter ca?" This phrase means "Can you repeat that?" Another useful phrase is "Pouvez-vous parler plus lentement?" This will allow you to ask "Could you speak more slowly?"These phrases will not prepare you for every situation that you could possibly encounter while traveling. However, with these basics and a little practice, you will be able to make the most of your holiday. You will want to remember to say please and thank you, be courteous, and do not be afraid to improvise if you get stuck. If all else fails, you can always resort to this one final phrase, "Parlez-vous Anglais?" This phrase means "Do you speak English?" Thus, this article provides you with enough common French phrases in order to ensure that you can get by if you are traveling in a French-speaking country or if you encounter a French traveler on your vacation.Do not be discouraged if you cannot remember a phrase or get mixed up mid-conversation. It is all part of the learning process, and people will appreciate your effort, even if your ability to speak French has not been perfected. You should remember that communication is not based on words alone, and you can convey a lot by using actions and facial expressions to supplement the phrases that you do not know. (MORE)
What is the answer to the French question 'Comment vas-tu'?
Je vais bien ("I'm doing fine") and Je ne vais pas bien ("I'm doing not well") are just two possible answers to the French question Comment vas-tu?* The respective pronunciati…ons will be "zhuh veh bya" and "zhuhn veh pa bya" in regard to the answers and "kuh-maw veh-tyoo" in terms of the question. *"How are you?" (MORE)
What is 'Va à' when translated from French to English?
"Go to... ." is a literal English equivalent of the incomplete French phrase Va à... . The incomplete statement is in the second person singular of the present imperative and… therefore may be considered addressed to a family member, friend, or peer. The pronunciation will be "va" in northerly French and "va a" in southerly French. (MORE)
What is the French 'Comment ca va avec tes parents' in English?
How are your parents or How are things going with your parents may be English equivalents of 'Comment ça va avec tes parents'. The words in French are pronounced 'KOH-maw sah… vah ah-vehk tay pah-raw'. In the word by word translation, the adverb 'comment' means 'how'. The demonstrative 'ça' means 'that'. The verb 'va' means '[he/she/it] does go, goes, is going'. The preposition 'avec' means 'with'. The possessive 'tes' means 'your'. The masculine noun 'parents' means 'parents'. (MORE)

1:44 for a proof. Jesus respects the Mosaic law as the great high priest of another line (Heb. 7:11–8:13), but He is not bound or limited by it. Although touching the leper was a violation of the laws of ritual purity (Lev. 5:3), Jesus did so as He healed him.

Arrow Air — 25 years later
A quarter century has passed since Arrow Air Flight 1285 crashed 73 seconds after it lifted off a Gander runway on Dec. 12, 1985.
Two hundred and fifty-six people died — 248 U.S. soldiers and eight crewmembers. It remains the deadliest aviation disaster in Canadian history and one of the worst ever faced by the U.S. military. The Telegram's Steve Bartlett teamed up with his colleagues at The Beacon in Gander for this special report on the Arrow Air crash - 25 years later. In it, readers will find out what happened on that chilling December morning, and the reaction here and in the United States. There are stories about the investigations into the crash, articles outlining why some people have never accepted the findings, and a recap of some of the conspiracy theories. There is also a profile of an inspiring Gander widow and report on a new local book about the disaster. On the web, we're asking people to tell us their whereabouts when they learned of the crash, and to share any other memories from that time. The goal is to remember a significant and sombre moment in the province's history.
- See our report
- That dark day in Gander
- In Gander, the scars remain
- We remember them still
- 'He came in the kitchen to tell me that Daddy was dead'

Being as I was actually on that Arrow Airlines plane that crashed about 10 hours before (9th ID, 3/60 INF "Go Devils"-FT Lewis, WA.), this is very interesting to me, as I have NEVER heard this theory on the crash !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For Frontline Managers
The #1 reason for employee turnover is their frontline manager. The goal of this class is to serve our clients through training their leaders on the front lines. A team with great leaders at every level will always beat a team with good leadership only at the top.
This training is for the leaders in the trenches that make sure the day-to-day work gets done. They lead people and are vital to your success. Whether they are brand new to their job or a salty veteran, this training will make them better.
Below is an outline of what you and your team can expect from this program:
[tabs style="1"] [tab title="Month 1"]
Building Leaders West Point's Way
West Point has been developing leaders of character for our nation for almost over 200 years. The principles haven't changed and neither have the results. This class will focus on the foundational elements of becoming a leader of character.[/tab] [tab title="Month 2"]
Know Thyself – DISC
A leader must be able to communicate with those they lead and those they are led by. But not everyone receives what you say the same way. Why? Because we all have different personalities, strengths and tendencies. This class will help you identify your personality, strengths, and tendencies and how to connect and communicate with people who are different than you.[/tab] [tab title="Month 3"]
Situational Leadership II (Ken Blanchard)
Each person you lead and each circumstance you face is unique. A one size fits all leadership style just doesn't work. A leader must adapt how they lead based on who they are leading and what tasks need to be accomplished. This class is foundational for understanding how to coach those you lead to attain higher performance.[/tab] [tab title="Month 4"]
The Five Dysfunctions of A Team (Patrick Lencioni)
If a low maintenance team built on trust, communication, commitment, accountability, and results sounds like a dream situation this is a can't miss class for you. A leader is ultimately responsible for all five of these critical traits. This class is about building and/or re-building a team around these principles.[/tab] [tab title="Month 5"]
The Three Signs of A Miserable Job (Patrick Lencioni)
Increasing productivity, higher employee retention, lower costs and a unique culture all result from avoiding the Three Signs of A Miserable Job. Implementing the three strategies discussed in this session will cost your organization nothing financially. Yet you can achieve each of these results, no matter if you are a frontline leader or the president of the company. The key is your willingness to make the change.[/tab] [tab title="Month 6"]
Leadership Case Studies
A leader is ultimately responsible for the performance of their team. In this final class, elements of DISC, Situational Leadership, The Five Dysfunctions Of A Team and The Three Signs of A Miserable Job will all be brought together. Coaching case studies gathered from the attendees will bring home the lessons of the previous five months.[/tab] [/tabs]

- ALSLead Personality Profile Assessment by DISC

A great place to party, not too crowded, great cocktail good music for a fun night out.
Booked through an agent which somehow didn't get through, However, the situation was handled very professionally, Dan the manager in-charge that night was wonderful and very helpful in finding us a spot and even showered us with drinks to "soften" the start of the night (It was my Birthday). We all had a...more
Having a passion vodka cocktail (£7.50) while I waited for a lunch date...was tasty and refreshing, could've done with more passionfruit but that's just me.
Menu looks good, around the £8-£10 range.
Quiet during the day but must be very popular and busy at night. Nice place to just chill during the day.more
Umm Revolutions... Hmmm im not sure how i feel about it but i guess i will go here again in the future.
I recently partied here on Friday night and it was LIVELY... Had lots of fun with my Party people... Music is upbeat with different selections also the people that go here seem like they enjoy a bit of Fun, Dancing and Drinks.... Good on em!!!! Was a Great night...!
Wait I must say the...more
We couldnt resist the 50% off food deal on Mondays and two for one cocktails and came in with no expectations.
The service was good, but unfortunately my husband did not enjoy his meal. We started with a cosmo and mojito (both delish), and had some greasy dough balls, which despite the greasiness were good.
I ordered the garlic mushroom pizza which I thought was decent. nice thin crust....more
Always likely to have a 241 offer going on for cocktails, so you can never go wrong. This is one of my favourite rev bars because of the glass exterior. Although I don't go here regularly at all, it always ticks in my head.
You can never go wrong with a revolution bar - good cocktails and always some music, sometimes even a dj. Good place to go with friends on a night out if you don't fancy...more

Bridge to Nowhere Track (Mangapurua Track)
Classic Mountain Bike Ride
Ruapehu, North Island
Keen to ride the Bridge to Nowhere? Check out the self-guided two night Bridge to Nowhere Experience or contact us for help in booking your trip.
The Bridge to Nowhere Track is an incredible ride that includes a huge range track styles, stunning scenery and untouched New Zealand bush. It's one of the best 'adventure rides' on the North Island and a must for all mountain biking enthusiasts.
To get to the start of the Bridge to Nohwere Track (also known as the Mangapurua Track) you can ride from either Ohakune, Raetihi or National Park. Regardless of where you start you can expect about a 2 - 3 hour ride to the start of the track, so begin your day early if you intend on riding all the way to the Bridge to Nowhere. The ride from either Raetihi or Ohakune includes 20kms of downhill on a quiet, tar-sealed country road - it's a great way to stretch out the legs!
Starting in Raetihi head out of town on Valley Road heading north toward King Street and State Highway 4. After a kilometer Valley Road turns into State Highway 4 (SH4). Continue along here to 2.8 kilometers until you come to the turn off for Raetihi Ohura Rd. This is a narrow back country road with very little traffic. It is very winding in some parts and it seems to get progressively narrower - although it is all tar sealed for the 20 kilometers to Ruatiti Domain.
Ruatiti Domain is a delightful spot to stop for a picnic or rest on the side of the Manganuioteao River. It is actually a free camping area with water and toilets and during season you are sure to find a few fishing folk here taking advantage of the world renowned trout fishing in the river. The area is also well known for the Whio (native Blue Duck).
From Ruatiti Domain head out on Ruatiti Rd as it turns into very much a single lane gravel road. After just over 5.5 kilometers you will come to a cross roads where Ruatiti Road turns into Crotons Rd. Follow Ruatiti Road until you see a signpost for the track on your left. This gravel road is undulating but includes no significant climbs.
In total you can expect to take between 2 to 3 hours to get from Raetihi to the start of the Mangapurua Track. It's just about 35kms from here to the Mangapurua Landing - most of it downhill! It's worth noting this is remote backcountry terrain with no cell phone signals. Fitness-wise, it's a Grade 2 but when factoring in the remoteness and technical sections, it's more of a challenging Grade 3. Be prepared with an emergency kit, never ride alone and consider bringing along a Spot Tracker in case of emergency.
From the signposted start of the Mangapurua Track, you start with a well-graded but challenging climb. Over the course of about 4 kms, you'll climb just about three hundreds metres on a 4 wheel drive farm track - find your granny gear and be sure to stop every now and then to look back at the mountain views behind you.
The wider upper valley track is shared with quad bikes (mainly pig hunters) so you will need to be aware of this and also hikers/walkers on the Bridge to Nowhere Walk section of the ride. From the Mangapurua Trig the track literally flies down into the valley for about 7 kilometers before it flattens out and meanders downstream (Mangapurua Stream) along the valley floor for a further 20 kilometers crossing countless swing bridges.
Finally travelling along the Valley floor the Bridge to Nowhere quite literally appears from nowhere from around a corner!
You can expect to complete the Mangapurua Track to the Bridge in 3 - 4 hours - including many stops along the way to check out some of the historic house sites that were home to early settlers. The track is nearly 100% ride able apart from the dozen or so swing bridges; it is still a bit technical in some downhill parts and some of the exposed sections where the track crosses bluffs. You can expect to hop off your bike a couple times to cross these bluffs.
The large concrete "Morgan Bridge" was completed in 1936 - but by the time it was finished the settlers in the area had pretty much packed up and left the bush to claim the land back. You can still see the remains of the original swing bridge that provided essential supplies to those settlers in the 1920s from the new bridge. About 100 metres down from the bridge is a lookout track and toilets are there also.
A short 20 minute / 3km track takes you from the Bridge down to the Mangapurua Landing on the edges of the Whanganui River.
Finally, you need to have organised a pick up from a local Jet Boat operator. They will pick you up from Mangapurua Landing and jet boat you on a fantastic adventure 30km down river to Pipiriki where you can either catch a bus back to Raetihi or cycle the 28 kilometers back to Raetihi. One great option is to stay halfway down the river with the Bridge to Nowhere Lodge - they will organise the jet boat pick up for you or alternatively an awesome experience is to canoe from Mangapurua Landing down to the Lodge for the night before jet-boating out to Pipiriki in the morning. It is not a hard ride on a quiet road - but I guess that depends on how tired you feel after the previous 100km!

This season we have had 921 riders on this track.
It's awesome. One group has been back 3 times with many others coming back twice.
Obviously as all rides, best to do it in the dry, but this track is that well maintained by DOC that it is becoming very ridable even in the wet. Classed as the best ride in the North Island.Posted by Joe, 04/05/2014 2:09pm (10 months ago)
Has anyone out there ridden this track recently? Is it too muddy?
