Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that The World's End is an offbeat hybrid that starts out like a buddy comedy and ends up being a whole other kettle of fish. Like Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz, which were made by the same director and stars, it's irreverent and unpredictable, which makes it truly enjoyable, but its edgy content means it's definitely best for older teens and up. Expect loads of drinking -- the movie is, after all, about an epic pub crawl gone very awry -- and scenes of violence (though they're cartoonish and played for laughs at times) with limbs coming off, explosions, outright melees, and the like. There's lots of swearing, including "f--k," "s--t," and much more.

What's the story?
Gary King (Simon Pegg) was once the king of his fivesome, cool and mysterious in his black overcoat and shades and enticing his friends into a mile-long pub crawl ... but they stopped three short of the record dozen. Decades later, stuck in the past, broken but not defeated, Gary is determined to go for the dirty dozen once more. But first he must persuade his old pals -- the now buff-and-successful developer, Steven (Paddy Considine); the still mild-mannered car salesman, Peter (Eddie Marsan); the man-on-the-go estate agent, Oliver (Martin Freeman); and Gary's old-best-friend-turned-lawyer-who-now-hates-him, Andy (Nick Frost) -- to join him. And even if they do, the road to The World's End, the last of the 12 bars, will prove to be paved with otherworldly, violent intrusions.
Is it any good?
Fabulously fun and wonderfully weird, THE WORLD'S END is a brilliant mash-up of buddy comedies and alien invasion thrillers. What really makes this movie -- which is part of an unofficial trilogy (with Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz) that takes film genres and turns them on their heads -- work are its unexpected turns, which are at once deft and daft, in the best ways.
It owes its success in no small part to its ensemble, which is led by the fearless and gleefully deranged Pegg, who exudes the smarminess of a man past his prime who clings to the belief that he's not. Still, he remains charismatic, which makes it understandable that his old pals still show up (except perhaps Andy, whose reasons for being angry after all these years make his participation feel off-key). At times, the movie's tone is discordant -- is it funny? poignant? -- and there are bits in the end that veer toward maudlin. (Is it a meditation on alcoholism or friendship?) But all of that said, The World's End is very, very good. And unlike the pub-crawling quintet here, you won't be sorry for drinking in the mayhem.
Families can talk about...
Families can talk about the role that drinking plays in The World's End. What part does it play in the quintet's friendship? Is it glamorized at all?
What is the movie saying about friendship? And about alcoholism (or any kind of dependency), for that matter?
Why do you think the five friends lost touch? Is it normal for friendships to dissipate over time, or are there other factors at play in the movie?
Why do you think Gary is bent on going on the pub crawl? Is it his last hurrah? An act of desperation? A yearning for happier times? Is it believable that his old friends would come along?

DEFINITION of 'Ocean Bill Of Lading'
A document required for the transportation of goods overseas. An ocean bill of lading serves as both the carrier's receipt to the shipper and as a collection document. The document specifies the details of the goods being transported, such as quantity, type and destination.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Ocean Bill Of Lading'
A non-negotiable ocean bill of lading allows the buyer to receive the goods upon showing identification. If the bill is deemed negotiable, then the buyer will be required to pay the shipper for the products and meet any of the seller's other conditions.
An ocean bill of lading allows the shipper to move goods across international waters. If the goods are to be initially shipped over land, an additional document, known as an "inland bill of lading", will be required. The inland bill only allows the materials to reach the shore, while the ocean bill allows them to be transported overseas.

MasterCard CEO Ajay Banga Addresses High Ranking Nigerian Officials And Bankers At A Cashless Conversation In The Capital Abuja (Photo: Business Wire)
The rapid evolution of the payments landscape in Nigeria was highlighted as a global success story by Ajay Banga, the President and CEO of MasterCard Worldwide, at an address to Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) officials and other Nigerian officials and business leaders. Banga was on a visit to Nigeria as part of a week-long trip across Africa.

The introduction of the CBN's Cashless Policy was acknowledged as being the driving force behind this evolution. "MasterCard's close collaboration with the CBN and other stakeholders in Nigeria has proved that collaboration between public and private sector organizations is the key to driving meaningful change in any economy," said Banga.
Banga noted that Nigeria has witnessed a remarkable reform in its electronic payments sector over the past two years, with financial institutions, businesses, merchants and consumers showing a keen willingness to adopt electronic payments.
"The CBN's Cashless Policy, and the solutions created to achieve its goals, is viewed with global interest as a benchmark in driving financial inclusion in emerging markets," he added. "The modernization of the payments industry, driven by local government, will positively impact economic growth in Nigeria by helping to eliminate inefficiency, corruption and fraud, which are issues faced by all cash-dependent economies."
MasterCard's multifaceted approach to supporting the move to electronic payments includes continuous engagement with the Nigerian government and a number of collaborations with financial institutions and merchants to educate consumers on the benefits of electronic payments. Banga added that it is this approach and the strong relationships that MasterCard has built with all stakeholders, combined with the shared vision of creating a Cashless Nigeria, that has contributed to MasterCard's success in the country, and what will continue to do so.- Guaranty Trust Bank had taken the early technology adopter position by aligning with MasterCard to promote electronic payments, ensuring that every individual customer had been issued a MasterCard Debit card for electronic card payments.
- MasterCard recently introduced Corporate Payment Solutions (CPS) to Zenith Bank corporate customers allowing them to streamline their processes for authorizing, monitoring and reconciling corporate expenditure.
- United Bank of Africa (UBA) recently started offering MasterCard Debit cards to their customers offering them the convenience of one card that they could use in Nigeria and overseas for their purchases and payments.
- Stanbic IBTC Bank has taken the Cashless Nigeria drive to new heights by discontinuing the sale of Personal Travel Allowance and Business Travel allowance in their branches. Customers are required to use their MasterCard Debit cards for all their international purchase and payment needs.
- MasterCard certified Unified Payments Services Limited as a third-party processor in 2012, making MasterCard the first payment brand in Nigeria to have up to three third-party processors which aligns to the CBN's drive towards liberalization in the card processing space and interoperability.
- As part of its holistic strategy, MasterCard has created a platform through which knowledge is shared and gained during bank and merchant training workshops. These sessions focus on card acceptance best practices, card security, fraud identification and management with an overview of cardholder support. The platform has allowed for the further development of meaningful relationships with influencers across a variety of industries.

3 Earnings Short-Squeeze Stocks
BALTIMORE ( Stockpickr) -- As we move through the earnings season, I love to search the market for stocks that look poised for an earnings short squeeze. These stocks can produce outsized gains due to the fact that they're heavily shorted by the bears. They also hold a lot of risk; after all, the bears have found some reason to think that they'll trade much lower.
Last week, the bears won the battle on two of my picks, with First Solar (FSLR - Get Report) and InterDigital (IDCC - Get Report) trading sharply lower following their earnings reports. My only winner was Brigham Exploration (BEXP), which I mentioned at around $33 a share and is now changing hands at around $37.
Neither FSLR nor IDCC delivered the fundamental results that the bulls were looking for, so the bears subsequently gained control and whacked both stocks. This is simply part of the game when trading earnings short-squeeze candidates, and it's what makes it important to cut the losers quick if a short squeeze doesn't materialize. Don't ever let an earnings short-squeeze trade turn into an investment if your play was only to trade the earnings event. There are enough heavily shorted stock candidates that will produce large gains and easily take care of the losers.

Remember, the winners tend to advance significantly, so they make this trading strategy worth the risk as long as you cut the losers fast. This is a game of probability, so it's important to realize that it's virtually impossible that every name I highlight is going to be a winner. However, I will continue to strive to pick the best names that I think have the greatest chance of producing an earnings short squeeze if the companies deliver the fundamental results that Wall Street is looking for. Before we take a look at some potential earnings short-squeeze candidates, let's go over the basics. A short squeeze is a rapid increase in the price of a stock that occurs when there is a lack of supply and an excess of demand for the stock. Short squeezes happen when bears who've sold the stock short are forced to cover their position on a stock as it rises. Short sellers will cover their positions to avoid losses further losses. Here's a look at a number of stocks that could experience a big short squeeze when they report earnings this week.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

A person that intimidates another to control , disrespect, or frighten them.
In schools it would be mostly up to the head and the school's policy. In a private school where my grandsons attended there were signs all over saying that there was zero tolerance of bullying. I understand with the girls it was more difficult as it was not so obvious, more like underhanded comments.
I doubt it. It is a new form of "communication". We will have to learn to deal with it.
Not wanting to go to school. Falling grades. Being more silent.
Have open discussions and surely there are some videos out that cover this.
Not at school.
That is what we therapists do. Sexual abuse from brother to sister, sexual abuse from brother to brother (the victim later committed suicide) and the unfortunate abuse that does go on from parent, step-parent to children.
In the same way they always have. Threats, spreading false rumors, physical violence.
Yes because it makes it more difficult for teachers and parents to monitor it. But with any new technology we need to find ways to deal with this.
The most important thing is to have a relationship with a child that they feel it is OK to approach the parent with a problem. I think an open discussion about bullying is to ensure the child that they won't make it worse by going to the school to report it (though if the school really doesn't have a decent policy, it could make it worse). One father I heard of found out his son was being bullied by older, bigger boys. He approached these boys and asked them if they would "protect" his son as he thought they were tough enough to do this. A real chance he took but he said it worked. My younger son was bullied on the school bus – evidently my friend's older boy sorted it out quickly and completely. I never knew about it until years later. My other son's cap was grabbed and threw away on the train coming back from school. I just went out and bought another cap. The next thing that happened was that we got a letter (he could hardly write) from the boy who evidently did it apologizing profusely . This I think was due to a headmaster that just wouldn't tolerate bullying of any kind.
Tell the teacher, tell the parents. It may be appropriate to tell the police.
Of course. Lack of self- confidence, fear of those, mistrust of others.
That would depend on who – is it their boss? Is it a colleague? Companies usually have policies about this. I felt I was being bullied in my last job. I took it up and beyond the director of the unit I was with. I managed to hang onto the job but I don't advise causing waves. It doesn't help your career. I think in most cases it is better to find another job. I was going to leave this job eventually anyway because I was coming to the UK.
Continue to monitor what happens with the new communication technology.
Bullying can be a terrifying and traumatizing experience for both the victim and parents. According to the National Education Association, 71% of students report bullying as a problem at their school and 90% of 4th through 8th graders report being victims of bullying.
In 2011, the Youth risk Behavior Surveillance survey reported that 16% of high school students had experienced cyber bullying that year. Cyber bullying can take many forms, one of the most concerning bullying pictures. Bullying pictures are pictures that teens post of their peers to shame, humiliate, and harass them.
Social Media's Role with pictures about bullying
With social media applications easily accessible on a cell phone like Instagram and Facebook, which allows the user to share pictures and videos, bullying pictures have become easier to share and normalized for the current teenage population.
Bullying Pictures' Victims
In 2008, USA Today reporter Janet Kornblum covered the story of Ricky Alatorre, a 16-year-old high school student bullied with a fake MySpace (the predecessor of Facebook) profile with a picture of him taken by a peer in class as the main photo. The profile made fun of his success in school, his upbringing on an Indiana farm, and taunted him with false accusations about his sexuality.
For Ricky, who was teased by fellow classmates since starting school in kindergarten, this bullying in the form of pictures was absolutely devastating:
"When they put it on the Internet, it's like they took everything and multiplied it by an astronomical number. It's one thing if it's a mean thing that somebody put in my school paper because that's contained within a small area. Only a certain number of people will see that. But when you put it on the Internet, you are opening it up to everyone in the world."
Sixteen-year-old reporter Temitayo Fagbenle reports on the disturbing and harmful trend of bullying pictures that she has witnessed : online "slut shaming". This slut shaming involves the posting and sharing explicit videos and pictures of young women by their peers.
Sometimes the photo is taken with the young woman's consent by herself or her boyfriend, but not intended to be shared. There are also instances of peers taking these explicit photos or videos without the victim's permission or knowledge.
Fagbenle shares a friend's experience with bullying pictures:
"Two years ago, when I was in ninth grade, a girl in my class faced a similar situation. Her boyfriend put an intimate video of them up on the Internet, and suddenly everyone was talking about it. 'He was going around holding his head high,' the girl [said]. 'He gave me a bad name'."
Suicide and pictures about bullying: The Terrible Result of Bullying Pictures
Bullying, specifically cyber bullying, is an incredibly serious safety concern for young people. It is an issue that can be deadly to its victims. Sometimes, without the proper attention and support, suicide seems like the only way out of humiliation, shame, and hurt.
The CDC reports suicide as the third leading cause of death among young people. Almost 7 percent of American high school students have attempted suicide, while over 14 percent have reported considering it.
According to studies by Yale University, bully victims are two to nine times more likely to consider committing suicide than non-victims.
Ricky Alatorre, the victim of bullying pictures on MySpace, considered suicide after discovering the profile:
"I had thought about suicide. It looked very welcoming at certain times."
Thankfully, Ricky had the support and love of his family, such as his mother Peggy to help him get through this traumatic experience. But, as the statistics show, not every victim receives the support they need.
Faced with these terrible safety concerns, what steps can a potential victim or concerned parent take to help prevent cyber bullying through bullying pictures or to deal with its aftermath?
Steps a Potential Victim Can Take when it comes to pictures of bullying.
Bullying is ingrained in our society, especially in the lives of young people in middle school and high school, but it does not have to be this way. Stay informed about bullying trends such as bullying pictures to protect yourself, your children, or your community from the effects of bullying. It is time we had a long hard look at bullying pictures today!

New Jersey's Newark Liberty International Airport , a Continental Airlines hub, regained electric power after a failure lasting more than an hour forced carriers to divert some flights.
The package arrived at Cindy Lohman's home in Great Mills, Maryland, just two weeks after she learned that her son, Ryan, a 24-year-old Army sergeant, had been killed by a bomb in Afghanistan. It was a thick, 9-inch-by- 12-inch envelope from Prudential Financial Inc ., which handles life insurance for the Department of Veterans Affairs.
Life insurers are secretly profiting from death benefits owed to the survivors of service members and other Americans.
United Airlines resumed flights today after a five-hour computer outage last night stranded passengers in Chicago, Denver, San Francisco and other U.S. cities.
United Airlines said passengers who bought tickets that were accidentally sold for free because of faulty reservations data will be able to use them for travel.
"From our perspective what we're looking for, and what we look for in all of our hubs, is something that's going to be a benefit for our customers-- something that's going to make the time they spend in the airport more productive, more enjoyable, comfortable."

Re: Nook ST misaligned?
Mercury_Glitch Sep 1, 2013 5:58 PM (in response to rjcorry)you can try a reset, go in to settings (if you're at all able) then device information - erase and deregister.
I don't think that's gonna fix the issue honestly, but it's worth a shot.
You can also call BN support, or visit a store. Given the recent history we've seen here on the forum I would suggest the store.
Re: Nook ST misaligned?
bobstro Sep 1, 2013 11:24 PM (in response to rjcorry)It's also worth giving your screen a clean. The NST uses infrared sensors that need the small gap between the screen and bezel clear. You might try blowing that out. I have one unit that goes nuts regularly until I give it a good blast to clear out any dust.
Re: Nook ST misaligned?
Parteecia Sep 5, 2013 9:28 AM (in response to bobstro)I am having the same problem with my Glow. Worked fine until I had it in a case with a couple of CR2032 batteries in the cover next to the screen, although I don't know for sure if that's related.
Cleaned the dickens out of the screen and bezel but that didn't help.
Stuck it in the fridge to punish it ; actually to see if the dry cold would reset it somehow. It works when it's cold but as soon as it warms up it goes wrong again. On the search screen, touches at the screen top activate the bottom row of keys. Oddly enough, the choices brought up by the "n" (home, library, etc.) work OK. But "power off" requires another stint in the fridge.
'Way out of warranty, of course.

Picking the Right Knife – A Buyers Guide
Ask any pocketknife enthusiast what his favorite blade is and you'll likely get a different answer every time. Knives come in hundreds of different configurations and styles, making the decision on which blade is "your blade" all the more complex. Certain knives are clearly better suited objectively for specific applications, but for an everyday pocketknife, the criteria can often be subjective to ones taste. Sarge offers many different knife variations, from single fixed blade to foldable styles.
A single-blade folding pocketknife comes with a locking mechanism for strength and durability. Single blade pocketknives are a clear favorite for everyday blades. They are simple in nature but strong enough to be well suited for a variety of tasks. Single blade knives often come as a straight edge, or a combo serrated edge. The Sarge SK813 Panther is a combo edge knife standing 3.5" with a locking mechanism. This is a perfect all around utility style pocketknife.
A single straight edge knife is best suited for "push cutting" and gives the user more control and accuracy to perform precision cuts. A serrated edge, like the SK-805, gives the user a much better level of "sawing" power, but with the benefit comes a lose of some precision and clean cutting ability.
Another consideration is blade length. Longer is not always better, as is often thought. Most short blades are able to travel anywhere as most laws that prevent knives from being carried certain places pertain only to blades longer than 2.75 inches. Short pocketknives are often foldable blades with a locking mechanism. One disadvantage to picking up a larger knife is that they are often fixed blade. This makes them more difficult to transport legally, safely, and discreetly. A perfect example of a very transportable small single-blade foldable pocketknife is the SK-800.
If you've decided what kind of knife you want to carry, browse our Folding Blades, Fixed Blade, and Combo-Serrated blade knife selections. Too see more knives and other tools, be sure to check out our social media at Facebook, Twitter, Google+, and Linkedin.

The following fuels can be used with the Red line; acetylene, hydrogen, natural gas, propane, and propylene. The green line is compatible with oxygen. Grade T is the only grade that has been recognized for use with oxy-fuel gas welding applications by the Compressed Gas Association.
Grade T Single Line Welding Hose, Series 7141 (Red, Gas) and Series 7142 (Green, Oxygen) are premium single line welding hoses from Parker. These hoses feature flame and oil resistant tubes and covers. Naturally, only the red line can be used with fuel and only the green with oxygen. These hoses are made for a wide variety of applications and long continuous lengths are available. Typical applications include, bending, brazing, cutting, fabrication, gouging, joining, piercing, pre-heating, post-heating, severing, soldering, straightening, surfacing, and trimming. Typical places of use would be assembly and fabrication shops, construction, factories, foundries, mines, oil rigs, plumbing, rail yards, salvage, scrapyards, shipyards and steel mills.
Another option is the Siameez Series 7126 twin line welding hose. In this case the red line is compatible with acetylene only, and not any other type of fuel. The green line is compatible with oxygen, as per normal. As with the other hoses mentioned here, the tube is "non-blooming" which minimizes the migration of combustible waxes or plasticizers the rubbers surface. In addition, flexibility is provided for with plies of textile reinforcement.
Parker Water Hose
Parker Water Hose offers plenty of variations of water hoses that can handle any water transport application you can throw at it. Parkers suction and delivery hoses are used in a variety of industries for all kinds of different applications. These hoses feature a thick rubber tube and heavy textile reinforcements to maintain a long service life. The Parker wire-helix can be provided to prevent collapse during suction applications. As is the case with most Parker Industrial Hose products, the water hose is particularly resistant to abrasion, weathering, and ozone.
Parker Super-Flex Series 7392 is a suction and discharge hose that has been specially designed to deal with brine, alkalis, and glycols as well as herbicides, mild chemicals, slurries, and water. Typical industries include agriculture, construction, general industrial, irrigation, and surface mining. Temperature range is -40 F to +212 F. If you need a little bit more of a heavy duty hose to deal with these same chemicals and materials, you'll want to look at Parker Super-Flex EPDM Heavy Duty Water Suction Hose Series 7325. This hose is designed to deal with the same materials as the 7392 but with its heavy wall construction and elevated pressure rating, rated for 300 PSI, this hose offers superior service.
Another example of Parker Water Hose is the Hurricane Pressure Washer Hose Series 7258. This is a flexible and high temperature pressure washer hose that is specifically designed to deal with hot water and mild chemicals. This would be typically used in agriculture, construction, general industrial, oil field, and shipyards. Working pressure on this hose 3000 PSI and temperature range is -40 F to +250 F. For durability in a high pressure environment this hose incorporates a high tensile wire braid reinforcement. This also provides for kink resistance and superior coupling retention. This hose is available in both black and blue colored options, both are resistant to oil and weathering.
Parker Steam Hose
Parker Steam Hose is built to withstand one of the most brutal applications hose is used for, where steam cycles hot, cold wet, and dry conditions both internally and externally on the rubber compounds that are used for its construction. One of the best examples of this is the Dragon Breath 250, series 7288. This is a traditional oil resistant hose that has been specifically designed by Parker to withstand the tough environment of the hot, cold wet, and dry cycle. The Dragon Breath 250 has an EPDM tube that helps prevent popcorning and heat resistance. This hose also features a wire braid reinforcement for prevention against crushing and to provide extended durability throughout its service life. This wire braid also creates a path to conduct a static electrical charge to ground. Lastly, this particular hose series 7288 is especially popular among oil refineries due to its red cover that is resistant to weathering and oil while providing color coding.
Another popular entry in the Parker Steam Hose category is the Steam-Lance 250, series 7264 (red). This hose has been designed as a traditional steam hose, built to withstand the hot, cold wet, dry condition cycle that steam applications impose. The EPDM tube, much like with the Dragon Breath 250, helps to resist popcorning and heat while adding a wire brain reinforcement for preventing crushing. The wire braid also adds kink resistance, and a red cover that is resistant to abrasion, cracking, hardening, and ozone.
Parker Oil Field Hose
Parker Oil Field Hose is a specially designed product primarily used in Frac tank service applications or as a high pressure discharge hose in drilling mud or petroleum waste. This hose is also used in water discharge applications.
One hose we feature is the BS & W Corrugated Oil Field Suction/ Vacuum Hose, Series 7213E. This hose is lightweight and flexible, used for suction and discharge and able to handle brine, crude oil, mild chemicals, petroleum waste, sediments, sludge, and slurries. The hose also easily handles water in harsh environments like oil field bottom sediment or waste pit recovery applications. Series 7213E is very strong and features a wire helix that provides full suction capability, flexibility, and kink resistance. The cover of the hose is also resistant to abrasion.
Another hose we offer is the Parker Mud Discharge Hose, Series 7309. As the name implies this hose is heavy duty and ready for rugged environments. It's designed to handle drilling mud, mild chemicals, petroleum waste, and water. The hose is manufactured with a heavy duty wall to provide strength and durability. The hose also features the ability to conduct static electrical charge to ground. This hose is available in 200 foot continuous lengths. Pressure rating maxes out at 300 PSI.

Meet the BBC's poster girl for welfare 'cuts'
She sounded African, but I couldn't swear to it. We were only told that her name was Rebecca and she lived somewhere in London.
Rebecca was wheeled out by the BBC as a victim of the latest 'savage cuts' in the welfare budget, which came into force yesterday.
The plight of this poor woman was considered by the producers of Radio 4's Today programme to be the most important story in the world.
'Rebecca' complained that Duncan Smith's decision to cap welfare payments at £26,000 a year equivalent to the after-tax income of an average working family - would cost her £98
No age, no surname, no address, no nationality. Is she a British citizen? Where did the BBC find this woman and why did they think it was necessary to tell us so little about her?
She was given the prime 8.10am slot after the news on the BBC's flagship show to plead her case.
This is the part of the schedule traditionally reserved for interviews with the big-hitters of the political world.
Yesterday it was the Work and Pensions Secretary Iain Duncan Smith's turn on the ducking stool, but not before Rebecca had her chance to denounce the cruelty of the Government's cap on benefits.
She complained that Duncan Smith's decision to cap welfare payments at £26,000 a year equivalent to the after-tax income of an average working family — would cost her £98 a week and she wouldn't be able to afford to pay her current rent.
Rebecca said that she came to Britain for a better life but after having children she couldn't find work.
The plight of this poor woman was considered by the producers of Radio 4's Today programme to be the most important story in the world
on benefits was not her choice, she insisted. 'I do things in my
community, I was in my training, I finish my training. Now if they want
us to go back to job, where is the job?'
It was put to Rebecca that she could always move out of London to somewhere cheaper
Apparently, this isn't an option because it would mean moving away from her 'community'.
think moving out of my community, my community will be missing me. I
give them my time and they give me back as well. If they move me out I
will start from zero.
'I'm a choir leader, a Sunday school teacher, I cook for omelettes people.'
At least, I think she said 'omelettes people'. I've listened to it half a dozen times on iPlayer and it certainly sounds like 'omelettes people'. Conceivably, I suppose, it could be 'homeless people'.
Difficult to tell, since her accent is so strong.
As I said, I'm assuming she's African. We weren't told precisely which 'community' she belongs to.
This was just one of a number of questions which were left hanging in the air. For instance, when did Rebecca come to Britain? Where, exactly, did she come from? Is she an asylum seeker, or an economic migrant? On what grounds was she given the right to settle here?
Did she have any children before she came to Britain or were they born here? How many children does she have? Two, three, ten? Are the children still at school or are they of working age?

Is Rebecca married? If so, where is her husband and what does he do for a living, if anything? If not, do all the children have the same father? Does the father (or fathers) contribute to the upkeep of the family?
London is a big city. Where, precisely, does she live? Is her home in Central London or one of the outer suburbs? Is it a one-bedroom flat or a £2 million townhouse? How much is her rent and which council pays the bill? How much does she receive every week in benefits?
If the welfare cap is 'costing' her £98 a week, that would suggest she gets around £31,000 a year from the taxpayer. That wasn't explained, either.
Has Rebecca ever worked since she came to Britain, or has she always been on welfare? She says that she has finished her training, but what kind of job has she been trained to perform? How many jobs has she applied for? How many interviews has she attended?
Has she been offered work, only to decide that she is better off on benefits than in paid employment?
Clearly she is not without skills and would appear to be a churchgoer. We do know that she is a choir leader, a Sunday school teacher and cooks for the 'omelettes people'.
But that's about all we know. No age, no surname, no address, no nationality. Is she a British citizen?
Where did the BBC find this woman and why did they think it was necessary to tell us so little about her?
My guess is that Rebecca was conjured up from central casting by a researcher with one of the myriad Left-wing 'anti-cuts' groups on speed dial.
She was specially selected to prove that the Tories aren't just heartless, they're racist, too.
Even by the BBC's standards this was a disgraceful piece of so-called journalism. It was pure anti-government propaganda.
John Humphrys is a proper journalist and a fine presenter. But using this woman as a cudgel to batter Duncan Smith was outrageous. Humphrys should have had nothing to do with it.
The Work and Pensions Secretary handled himself admirably, patiently explaining that no one should be entitled to receive more in benefits than they would if they were working and taking home the average wage.
He also reiterated that it was wrong to expect taxpayers to pick up the bill for expensive accommodation in Central London. No doubt most people who work in London would love to live in Kensington or Mayfair, but they have to commute daily from more affordable areas.
These are sensible, humane policies that command the support of the vast majority of voters, but not the Tory-haters who control the BBC's news and current affairs output.
Duncan Smith was fully justified in accusing the BBC of making a 'politically motivated' attack.
Last week the BBC published an expensive self-serving report which admitted distorting coverage of immigration and Europe — but only in the past. Bizarrely, it cleared itself of 'liberal' bias.
In the wake of yesterday's 'impartial' treatment of welfare reform and the scandalous alleged interview with Rebecca, which broke every rule of basic journalism, that report is exposed as a sick joke on all of us who are forced by law to pay the licence fee to feed the BBC's relentless Left-wing propaganda juggernaut.
The children's entertainer who hates children is a comedy staple. Behind their painted smiles, it is alleged that most clowns have an aversion to the kids they are paid to amuse.
That certainly seems to be the prevailing ethos at Clowntown, just off the North Circular Road, in Friern Barnet. It describes itself as the largest and most popular children's indoor activity centre in North London. But when Colm Doherty tried to sing Happy Birthday to his young daughter, Clowntown's manager, Ian Slazenger, called the police.
Mr Doherty's party was told that despite spending £300 on food, drink and admission fees, they weren't allowed to sing because he hadn't paid for a special 'Happy Birthday' package
A member of staff also attempted to prevent Mr Doherty's party of 18 children eating a birthday cake they had brought with them.
Colm Doherty (pictured with his daughter Cara) was in shock and disbelief when he was told to blow out the candles on his 8-year-old's birthday cake
He was told that despite spending £300 on food, drink and admission fees, they weren't allowed to sing because he hadn't paid for a special 'Happy Birthday' package. Since when did anyone have to pay for the privilege of singing Happy Birthday? And what kind of misanthrope decides to disrupt a children's party by calling the Old Bill?
It would appear that Ian Slazenger isn't quite cut out for a career in Clowntown. He's lucky he didn't end up with the cake being shoved in his face.
The milkman of human kindness turns sour
Milkman Kevin Gifford has been ordered to stop whistling after complaints from customers. Five residents on his round in Leicester have protested that his early-morning whistling disturbs their beauty sleep.
His manager at Kirby & West Dairy said Kevin had been warned about his whistling. 'He was asked to reduce the noise but unfortunately he didn't heed those warnings and we were left with no choice.'
After formal disciplinary proceedings, a compromise has been reached and Leicester's answer to Ernie has agreed not to whistle or sing before 8am
He's not happy about the ruling, though, or the customers who complained. 'They should just roll over and go back to sleep. Are they going to complain about the birds singing, too? They make more noise than I do.'
Kevin has a wide repertoire of tunes, ranging from Roy Orbison to the Sex Pistols, so maybe his customers have a point.
I wouldn't mind a gentle burst of Only The Lonely but I don't fancy being woken up by a full-throated blast of Johnny Rotten's God Save The Queen at half past four in the morning.
Romanian police are being imported to London to tackle the crime wave caused by Roma gypsies who have set up camp in the West End.
Nothing better illustrates the madness of Britain's immigration policy.
Why not just pull up the drawbridge?
Psst! Wanna buy some wine gums?
The health fascists are never satisfied, they simply move on to other targets. Having swept cigarettes away from supermarket shelves, they now want to scrap displays of sweets next to check-outs.
Plans are being drawn up to force shops to abolish so-called 'guilt lanes' near the tills. Public health minister Anna Soubry also wants food companies to stop using cartoon characters in advertising and force supermarkets to spend a fixed slice of their profits persuading us to buy low-fat and low-cal products.
Having swept cigarettes away from supermarket shelves, the health fascists now want to scrap displays of sweets next to check-outs
Why can't these people just leave us alone? Anna Soubry is being tipped for promotion. Heaven help us.
At this rate you'll soon have to be over 18 to buy a pound of wine gums in a plain wrapper.

Tuscaloosa News amends motion against Sexton
Published: Saturday, April 1, 2006 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, April 3, 2006 at 3:47 p.m.
The Tuscaloosa News has renewed its motion asking that Sheriff Ted Sexton be held in civil contempt, claiming that he continues to withhold information from the public in violation of a court order.
The amended motion, filed Thursday, cites Sextons refusal last week to provide to The News the jail mug shot of an individual charged with animal cruelty. The motion claims that Sexton changed his rules on releasing mug shots as part of a larger policy to deny the newspaper access to public records. It further claims that Sextons actions are retaliatory and intended to punish The News for suing him.
Circuit Judge Scott Donaldson has set a conference related to the motion for April 13.
The News sued Sexton in July 2004 for access to the front page of incident/offense reports. Donaldson later ruled that Sexton could not, as a matter of policy, withhold the reports. The ruling, however, gave Sexton the discretion to refuse access to reports in cases where he determined that releasing the information could compromise an investigation.
