The new Knesset's enlightened dictatorship
The 19th Knesset has quality lawmakers in it; too bad they are bowing to their party leaders' whims.
Text size
Almost half of the lawmakers who served in the last Knesset have been replaced in the new one. The recently sworn-in 19th Knesset exudes freshness in terms of quality, and certainly when it comes to the representation of women, younger people and the Orthodox. One of the reasons for the increased quality of MKs has to do with the unofficial return of "arrangement committees," which choose a party's slate....

Composition and design are made up of many, many elements. Things like visual weight, aspects of graphic elements such as vertical lines, diagonal lines, the use of perspective and so much more. There is one underrated and often under utilized aspect that I would like to focus on with today's post and that is the use of eye-lines or simply put, the line of sight. The face is one of the strongest compositional elements in an image. So much visual weight is given to the human face that it trumps just about everything else in an image. And so, when the human face is looking at an object that line of sight becomes a strong element of design. This line of sight is so powerful it has complete control over the viewer and makes or to put it stronger, forces the viewer follow through to the end of this implied line.
Below is an example of two men in India looking at a book. The lines are so strong that you can not help but look at the book with them. Put your cursor over the image and see the path the eyes make the viewer take.
Another example is below. This young girl to the left is looking at her sister to the right. If the girl on the left was looking directly into camera your eyes would eventually drift to the sister on the right, but with her looking at the sister you are compelled to look at her. Here the eye-line or line of sight is an intricate part of the composition of the image.
The last example is the image my daughter Jessie took of Bruce, a friend of ours. This is an example where diagonal lines play a huge part in the composition. Bruce, my friend is looking over his left shoulder off the frame. Your eyes naturally follow his line of sight. But the diagonal lines of the red shutter are so strong that they pull the viewer back to Bruce and the process repeats.
Now here's my challenge: Go through your images and see how many you have use this compositional technique on. I bet you'll find like me, you don't use it very often at all. A person that is a master of this technique is my buddy David duChemin. Check out some of his images at his gallery and you will see it use time and time again. David is a master at this.

Rep. John Boehner wants to know why the VA's average claims processing time is growing longer when it should be decreasing.
The Veterans Affairs Department has had little success in clearing the staggering backlog of compensation claims at an Ohio office, despite launching a transformation effort last summer, according to House Speaker John Boehner.
In a Feb 21 letter to VA Secretary Eric Shinseki, the congressman called for action on the "alarmingly" high backlog of veterans' compensation claims at the Cleveland Veterans Affairs Regional Office.
Despite a transformation plan put in place summer of 2012, the Cleveland office currently processes a claim in an average of 334 days -- well above VA's goal of 125 days, Boehner wrote. Since the transformation initiative was launched at the Ohio office, the average processing time has lengthened by 56 days – or 20 percent.
But it's not just one office that is having trouble. According to Boehner, the national average for VA to process a claim is 272.5 days. And the national average has been rising, by nearly 18 percent since January 2012, when it was 231.5 days.
Those results "disappointed and disheartened" Boehner, who said his office is currently handling nearly 100 unresolved claims cases awaiting answers from the Cleveland VARO.
"From a veteran who has already been waiting more than a year to simply add her newborn daughter as a dependent, to a veteran who submitted his claim more than two years ago and has yet to receive an answer, the examples of systematic failures being reported by my constituents in the Eighth District and across Ohio are shameful," he said.
The House speaker also took issue with the lackluster results from VA's senior leader to improve the benefit delivery system for veterans.
"In the four years you have served as secretary of the Department of Veterans Affairs, the benefit delivery system has not shown any noticeable improvement and America's veterans have yet to receive the VA service they deserve," Boehner said. "Despite your transformation efforts, the compensation claims backlog remains alarmingly high and our veterans continue to have their benefit access stifled by a broken system."
In 2010, Deputy Secretary W. Scott Gould announced VA had invested $138 million in a paperless system that would be launched in 2012. Two years later, Shinseki announced the national deployment of claims transformation initiatives to 12 regional offices to improve benefits delivery to veterans, families and their survivors.
"This is an important milestone in our transformation to achieve the goal we established in 2009 of processing all disability claims within 125 days at a 98 percent accuracy level in 2015," Shinseki said at the time.
However, the paperless system has yet to be fully adopted and VA is falling short on meeting its promises to reduce the processing time, Boehner said. "The data clearly indicates that your stated goal of processing a claim in 125 days is not being met and it appears that this goal is more unattainable today than it was four years ago," he wrote. "VA stakeholders are asking extremely important questions and as someone who represents them, I believe they deserve nothing less than honest and direct answers."
In his letter, Boehner requested a status update and more information on VA's plan to migrate to the paperless process. He also asked Shinseki how VA plans to cut the time veterans are waiting to have their claims reviewed and re-adjudicated, and the near- and long-term objectives of the entire transformation process.

I filed a claim 9 yrs. ago, and I rec'd a second Remand from BVA 02/05/2013. This Remand have been at the Cleveland RO since 02/12/2013, and I have not heard a word from the RO!! @##$%, What happen to the 125 days ??
All I know is that it is a very long process. I don't have any issue with VA employees. I know they are trying very hard to keep up. It would seem that the VA could just hire more people to process the claims, and that would solve the problem. Congress should mandate hiring more processors.
try to write a comment but system refuse to take, I was articulate and rude but how the heel we are going to fix the problem if they can struggle the vet but the vet can't say nothing.
Fifty months since I open my claim and was deny twice. My claim went to BVA Washington and returned back to St. Petersburg Regional Office on 1/2012 but my appeal start on 5/2010. BVA Remand to Regional office my claim, all C&P evaluations came on my favor from Dr. Opinions but Regional Office still insist to screw out sending my C file back and forward from one place to the other for additional information perhaps to jeopardize the opinions. Never believe in this system. This administration is all about immigration reform, Dream act Latinos and Mexico.

Two days after the reelection of 77-year-old President Abdelaziz Bouteflika for a fourth term, al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb, or AQIM, reorganized terrorists groups to go on the attack the region of Iboudrarene in Kabylia. Fifteen Algerian soldiers were killed in an ambush on a convoy in Djurdjura Mountains 130 kilometers east of the capital Algiers.

ALGIERS, ALGERIA (Catholic Online) - There have been noticeable movements of terrorist groups that are not familiar to the region over the past several months. Security has since been tightened in places reputed to be strongholds of Islamic insurgents.
Increased attacks between the country's security services against these groups led them to be confined to isolated regions, such as the Kabylia Mountains, which is east of the capital.
Islamic armed groups, or IAG were led during the 1990s time by Ait Ziane, who was the emir of the region at the time. These groups have staged dozens of terrorist attacks both against soldiers and unarmed civilians.
The local populace here sees them as accountable for many massacres and widespread devastation.
The moment chosen by al-Qaeda's North African branch, al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb, or AQIM fighters to perpetrate their attack is one of great concern. The attacks occurred in the region of Kabylia, while it was preparing to celebrate the 13th anniversary of the Black Spring. The Black Spring refers to the violent disturbances and political demonstrations by Kabylian activists in the regions of Tizi-Ouzou, Bejaia and Bouira in the center of the country in 2001. These painful events were met by repressive police measures and became a potent symbol of Kabylia in disagreement with the national government. The Kabylia Mountains lives in a terrible fear of resumption of renewed terrorist activities.

It's not an all-black porn site nor is it exclusively interracial, but however you classify White Ghetto, it's an absurdly confusing and bizarrely arousing good time. With everything from midgets fucking grannies to teens fisting trannies, this is a site peddling only the most outrageous porn imaginable. With a growing HD collection and daily updates, the site offers quite a tidy little service and, while it won't be for everyone, those that find themselves enjoying White Ghetto will be devotees till the bitter end.
For every person repulsed by the sight, smell, or feeling of a human foot, there is another for whom nothing could possibly be more erotic, more arousing. 21FootArt caters to the latter kind with its exclusive collection of hardcore movies centered around twinkly toes, smooth arches, and bony ankles. Without delving too deep into extreme fetishism, 21FootArt manages to imbue its European productions with a lightly carnal but deeply erotic sense of physical appreciation. The site is, however, very small. Walk (don't run) to 21FootArt, foot fetishists of the Internet, and check it out for yourselves.
Most massage porn sites either have a guy using his strong hands to coax a gorgeous naked woman into a state of total relaxation or the reverse, with the guy on the receiving end of manual, hands-on attention from a comely young lass. Two guesses what you'll find at All Girl Massage… That's right, women massaging women and, after letting their fingers do the walking, heading downtown for a bout of sapphic sex so hot it'll melt the fillings in your teeth. All Girl Massage might not be a perfect all-girl massage site, but it damn near comes close and that's something worth celebrating with a sensual self-massage of your own, isn't it?
Japan is known for its fondness for large-scale disasters caused by giant monsters but, strangely enough, not for its gargantuan-bosomed women! Stereotypically, the desirable Japanese babe has been young, slim, and flat-chested. At Big Tits Tokyo, however, she's as curvy as any bootylicious Latina or black girl and arguably down for more raunchy stuff: oils, clamps, and electrodes on the nipples, cosplay, gangbangs, and facials are on the agenda. Big Tits Tokyo ain't perfect and neither is its home network, All Japanese Pass, but us with our sanity-ditching obsession with mammaries that fill our hands many times over, we're not exactly perfect either.
Having reviewing the Brazzers network numerous times, it was starting to feel like there was nothing left to say about the infamous ZZ and its massive collection of exclusive, original hardcore pornstar-starring smut. That was until Brazzers Mobile hit the scene - and smart phones and portable media devices around the world! With a unique mobile-formatted design and complete access to everything that has made Brazzers one of the 'net's most successful adult websites, Brazzers Mobile puts some of the world's best porn in the palm of your hand.
John "Buttman" Stagliano is a media tycoon, antagonist to American puritans, and surveyor of every fine female body in the porn world. His official Buttman website is more devoted, however, to asshole expansion, kinky domination and submission plays, and experimental sex that few other pornographers would be touching if not for Stagliano's enormous influence. With stunning HD videos capturing every inch of skin shown by the models in gorgeous detail, and every act Buttman and his crew indulge in, Buttman's online base is as riveting as the man himself.
When shooting a two-woman scene, it seems most porn directors compensate for the lack of penis by telling the performers to act like this is the only satisfying sexual experience they'll ever have, but that doesn't make for particular convincing lovemaking, sex, fucking, or porn. Filly Films, although new on the scene, has started filling that void with scintillating hardcore scenes that place two beautiful, sensual women next to each other and let the chemistry bubble and boil until it explodes in a sea of sapphic orgasms. Club Filly is the company's online home and, if you're at all interested in watching two stunning women fuck each other's brains out in a most authentic fashion, the next hardcore site you subscribe to.
Eternal Desire can take your life in unexpected directions, not all of them positive or remotely sexy. For photography enthusiast Arkisi, though, his fondness for shooting pics of captivating women posed in the nude has brought him success, security, respect, and a legion of fans around the world who'll now be pleased to find Arkisi online with his very own Met Art website. Eternal Desire may not be home to cutting edge porn or ground-breaking erotica, but it's a solid effort all the same.

Unlike you liberals who prefer to call people who cant see, sight impaired, instead of BLIND, I prefer to call a spade a spade.
She made poor decisions, and she is paying dearly for them. She will pay for them for the rest of her life. And most of those decisions have been utterly stupid. As for lazy, what word would you use to describe someone who wont even look for a job?
Blind is BLIND. Not that wimpy sight impaired.
Also, her choices were her own. I didnt teach her to be that way. She chose her own path. Thats something that you libs dont understand. Instead, you try to make it easier on them.
Whats love got to do with it? I love her to death. But that doesnt fix stupid. Nor does it doesnt fix lazy. And respect is something you EARN. You dont get it by default. She has done some things to earn some respect, but shes done others that move her back 10 spaces.
She wouldnt be raising 4 kids if it werent for our help. They would have been taken away long ago. In fact, since her sperm donor wont work, I actually tried to claim the grand kids as dependents. Ask any of them who Santa Claus is. Even the 6 year old knows.
Ask them who gets their electricity turned back on when the bill doesnt get paid. Ask them who pays for food when the food stamps run out. Ask them who provides them a roof over their heads.
Its not the kids fault their parents are idiots.
What do you think of this? Their sperm donor gave them a big screen TV and a Playstation game center for Christmas a few years ago. They were ecstatic.
The last week of February, the rental center came and repossessed it. But if you ask him, he got them a Playstation and TV for Christmas a couple of years ago.
Youre probably right. Everyone else I know would have told her to pound sand long ago.
I dont blame anyone else, and that is a democrat trait. Just listen to Obama blame the economy on Bush.

Look, I know that some People are just a problem from day one, but I wonder if that's because the time to instill the values in them that they will keep their whole Life, is Birth to 5 years old. After that, it's too late usually.
But, if you knew she wasn't that responsible, why didn't you protect her from herself & encourage her to use Birth Control or to have minor surgery? Or, encourage him to have out-patient surgery...a vasectomy, specifically?

Well Timbuck, your kid has 4 children she is trying to raise. You state that she gets food stamps, and neither she nor her husband has a job. That means that they can get a subsidized rent through HUD, SCHIP for the kids, some help heating and cooling their home or apartment, commodities distribution, a free cell phone etc. etc. all courtesy of the US taxpayer. IF you really subscribed to the crap that you spout in your posts, being a businessman, you would NEVER let your flesh and blood suck the system like that. Instead you would create a job for your daughter with flexable hours to accomodate raising 4 kids, or let her work from home, pay her a generous salary which includes family insurance coverage so that she could become self sufficient and a model member of society.(That salary should have enough growth potential in it so that she can raise her kids, send them to good schools and colleges and save for retirement once her kids are grown. That way she can feel good about voting Republican to save herself money on her taxes.) After all aren't you one of those "job creators" ? Well who better to create a job for than your own kid ?
Then you can BEGIN to practice what you preach.
IF you were expecting anyone to pat you on the back for helping your own kid "after the food stamps run out" or for being SURE a six year old knows that YOU are Santa or turning the lights back on....well I already made a donation to the cause. I did so gladly. That is what I wish most of my taxes were used for, to uplift my fellow citizens who have hit a rough patch, or made some bad choices, people who are human and make mistakes or have a run of bad luck. You can continue to hope that your donation goes to the things you find important based on your posts....You know, things like wars in the Middle East to protect the right wing administration of Israel, or bigger tax cuts for millionaires and billionaires. Maybe a star wars shield to deflect the non- existant WMD that were on their way here on the non-existant rockets from Iraq. I certainly feel pity for your daughter..and you can take that any way you want to.

And in Texas, you Palin haters are not having a good day. Tea Partier, Ted Cruz scored a surprisingly easy win over the Republican party supported candidate in the Republican primary runoff for the U.S. Senate seat being vacated by Kay Bailey Hutchison.
Cruz once was considered a long shot to take down well-heeled Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst, the favorite of the party establishment. But he steadily gained in the polls during their bare-knuckles campaign brawl, which included Palin campaigning for him, and his lead opened up as soon as the earliest returns were posted. By 8:30 p.m. the Associated Press had named Cruz the winner, and within an hour Dewhurst called Cruz to concede.

Ungoverned powered board tackles rocks, sand and snow

The inventor of that board, Dan Baldwin, has now developed another prototype all-terrain board called the Ungoverned that is designed to tackle everything from rocks to snow. Read More

Oriana Cruise Review by Cnw11: Disappointing 1st cruise!

Compare Prices on Oriana Baltic Sea Cruises
Disappointing 1st cruise!
As first time cruisers, we were looking forward to the hyped up cruise with p&o on the Oriana .
Deluxe room very ordinary on C deck. Food at the main restaurants very average, with self service at the conservatory comparible to motorway service stations. Continental breakfast served in your room was extremely disappointing - so poor we had to leave it !! Al Fresco restaurant probably the better breakfast/ snack areas- still very 2*.Fortunatley we had booked a table at the Ocean Grill for our last night dinner which was 10/10.
No complimentary water in your room- £1.00 a small bottle!
Entertainment cheesy and downmarket!
Painting Maintenance carried out on the upper deck which left a few cruisers with paint covering their outer wear- no attempt to stop passengers using these areas.
Average age in the 60's..
All in all, very disappointing. Won't be in a rush to return! Less

On the subject of oracles, how about making it a 30 second duration consumable.
This would allow a team a limited duration to clear stealth objects, without the long-term "sweeping" of wards that you hope to avoid.
I posted a long tl;dr about the colorblind thing as a new topic before seeing Xyph's reply concerning it. So... thank you for taking us into account! The new stealth system sounds 1000x better than any of the old ideas and I'm super excited for it, and Shurelia remakes are always awesome.
How about having where you can still sneak-creep while stealthed if the enemy is not facing you, (ie back turned.)
Junior Member
Removing oracles? Is this even serious?
You do know the GAMEPLAY elements that oracles adds to the game right?
Map control revolves around it.
The better route would to be making oracles only see wards or something of that sort if you're looking to stop stealth from being gibbed.
Sentient 6
Not enough upvotes in the world; Xyph continues to be a beacon of light in this dark hazy sea of overly ambiguous "soon" posts we call the League of Legends forums.
I'm deeply concerned that you've overlooked something. I am too lazy to find the exact quotes, but you had two conflicting statements earlier.
1. Someone inquired as to if there would be a gem above yourself or over enemies. Worried that if it was over yourself, you'd be able to see by way of the gem if there were enemies waiting in bushes near you. And you assured them that because the gems were over the enemies, that since you couldnt see them, you couldnt see their gem.
2. Later though, someone asked about shared vision. If you are close enough to one enemy to light up their gem, and they could see you; does that mean their team could see you as well. You replied that once one saw you, they would all see you, and they would all go red.
So what is to stop someone from watching an enemy in a different lane as they approach the bush? If the random other laner's gem goes red, they will know that there is someone waiting in the bush for them. A little awkward to be watching constantly, but im sure avid "stealth" players would put the effort into keeping track of this.
Please consider positive play between brush and stealth.
With the new sight ranges built into champions, stealth characters (eve mainly) will have a difficult time getting in for that "surprise" attack, as well as escaping.
Consider: When a stealth champion is stealthed within a brush, and for .5 seconds after leaving brush, an enemy must be much closer to the stealther (400-500 units) in order to have vision. This allows positive play for bush juking, and will help to prevent the need of adding a specific spell for escapes. Since stealth is no longer a blanket binary effect, something must be done to ensure escape. Eve's speed is not enough with the myriad of characters in the game who have dash/roll/jump abilities that also often come with slow or stun effects.
Just an idea from a hopeful Evelynn player!

window boxes
hogan_njApril 9, 2011
I have window boxes that face south. What would be some low maint. flower arrangements. We like lots of color.
We also are thinking about purchasing two urn type flower containers to place on either side of our driveway which also faces south. Any ideas? We can't decide on an evergreen or something flowering.
Any help would be much appreciated.
tapla (mid-MI z5b-6a)
Moss roses, periwinkle are low maintenance - asparagus fern for a trailer. For an evergreen, a juniper makes sense in the urns.

ck fluid level to start with. also ck and see if fluid is red or did it burn and turn black?
Replyjgreersr, May 16, 2013, 15:02Rookie
yes the fluid level is fine, but it is dark in color. last night it did try to move on it's own after it cooled down, but this morning it would not do anything.As I said before, there were no warning signs, it just stopped pulling as I was driving down the road. No reverse or drive gears.
Thank you though for any information you may have. I'm looking at $2500. to rebuild which I can't afford and 1500 for a used one installed. But hoping for a simple fix.

Order and Security? or Chaos and Fear?
The current hype concerning gun control is for a reason: our government KNOWS people living in rural areas will NEVER give up their guns, and doesn't want them to give up their guns. So why the hype? Because our government wants people living in rural areas to SHOOT the cops and soldiers who will soon be coming to take away their guns. Our government wants chaos and killing, not order and peace… Continue reading

Sheriff: Phone calls to Lexington residents Saturday were scams
The Lexington County Sheriff's Department issued a warning to residents Saturday to beware of callers claiming to be from the Sheriff Department's warrants division.
In a posting on the department's Facebook page, Sheriff James Metts said several Lexington County resident reported getting such calls on Saturday.
Residents were told that they had missed a call to jury duty and were subject to arrest. The scammer said they could avoid arrest by calling a phone number and paying the fine with pre-paid credit cards in the amount of $500 or $1000.
Sheriff Metts said the phone number provided by the scammers is not registered with the Sheriff's Department. Furthermore, judges rarely issue bench warrants for failing to show up for jury duty, Metts said. If a bench warrant is issued against someone in Lexington County, the person will be arrested and required to appear at a court hearing. There is no provision for paying fines over the phone to lift a bench warrant.
Metts urged citizens who receive a call from someone claiming to be from the Sheriff's Department to ask for their name, jot down any phone number that may appear if they have caller ID and report the call to the Sheriff's Department. Do not call the number provided by the scammer and "do not buy pre-paid credit cards to try to resolve the matter."
To report receiving a scam-call, call the main number for the Lexington County Sheriff's Department at (803) 785-8230.

New RV park! Very nice, large and wide spaced sites. The monthly rate is $200 plus electric. Each site has its own Direct TV dish. You only pay a $70 deposit for the receiver. You get that back . WI-FI is great. The couple who run the park live next to the park and are very helpful. Nice, quiet, clean park. Lots of room to walk the dogs. No restrooms yet, but they are building showers, laundry, and clubhouse facilities. I highly recommend this park. We stayed 2 months and will be back next year.

It depends.
Let's address the two penalties that will apply - the 10% early-withdrawal penalty and the 20% federal withholding - separately.
Early-withdrawal penalty
If the distribution from your Deferred Retirement Option Program (DROP) fund is made to you after you separate from service with your employer, and the separation occurred during or after the calendar year in which you reached age 55, then the amount will not be subject to the 10% early-withdrawal penalty, unless you qualify for another exception. (See list of exceptions below.)
Unless you qualify for an exception, the 10% penalty will apply if you separate from service before the year you reach age 55 and/or if the distribution occurs before you reach age 59.5.
If only a portion is rolled over to an IRA or other eligible retirement plan, only the portion that you keep (i.e. the amount not rolled over) is subject to the early-withdrawal penalty.
Federal withholding
Unless the distribution is processed as a direct rollover to an IRA or other eligible retirement plan, your employer must withhold 20% of the amount for federal tax purposes.
If only a portion is processed as a direct rollover, only the amount paid to you is subject to the 20% mandatory withholding.
If the amount is paid to you and you choose to roll over a portion to an eligible retirement plan, the portion that you keep (i.e. the amount not rolled over) is subject to income tax.
If your employer pays the distribution to you and you later decide to roll over the distribution to an eligible retirement plan, you may either:
-roll over only the amount you received (the gross distribution minus the withholding tax), OR
-roll over the gross distribution amount. To do so, you will need to make up the difference (the amount withheld for tax by your employer) out of your regular savings.
Exceptions to the 10% early-distribution penalty
The 10% early-distribution penalty will not apply if distributions made before age 59.5 are made in any of the following circumstances:
-Made to a beneficiary on or after the death of the employee.
-Made due to the employee having a qualifying disability.
-Made as part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments beginning after separation from service and made at least annually for the life or life expectancy of the employee or the joint lives or life expectancies of the employee and his or her designated beneficiary. (The payments under this exception - except in the case of death or disability - must continue for at least five years or until the employee reaches age 59.5, whichever is the longer period.)
-Made to an employee after separation from service if the separation occurred during or after the calendar year in which the employee reached age 55.
-Made to an alternate payee under a qualified domestic relations order (QDRO).
-Made to an employee for medical care up to the amount allowable as a medical expense deduction (determined without regard to whether the employee itemizes deductions).
-Timely made to reduce excess contributions under a 401k plan.
-Timely made to reduce excess employee or matching employer contributions (excess aggregate contributions).
-Timely made to reduce excess elective deferrals.
-Made because of an IRS levy on the plan.

Pisces Woman
- Category: Zodiac Signs characteristics
- Published on February 23, 2012
- Written by admin
Pisces (February 19 - March 20)
Pisces is a water sign and is a very stable sun sign of all. A typical Piscean woman is very calm, quiet, considerate and compassionate towards others. She is ever ready to listen to other people's mind. In fact, she can help others by listening to their problems. She can also offer her unconditional support to those people who are facing serious problems. A Piscean woman is very emotional and nostalgic; these unstable personal qualities can make them reclusive and withdrawn at times. These perceived weaknesses also provide them a great challenge because they can go out of control at times with very serious consequences.
The Pisces woman could be a woman of different dreams! In fact, the essential need of logic and rationality may never exist in their life! In fact, she may never understand the meaning of logic in her life! She can create her own emotional world where she would like to wander and walk with all her thoughts focuses on one single mode that is nostalgia! The world around her is just like a deep and expansive ocean. She would like to swim and explore the depths of ocean with all seriousness. In fact, a typical Pisces woman is too sweet and irrepressible. She is too cute and loving for almost all other signs.
Providence has many gifts for this wonderful sign. Sixth sense and intuition are two of the most enduring qualities every Piscean woman possesses. They have the uncanny ability to predict the future and anticipate both good and the bad. People may call a Piscean woman who likes playing mind games with them but the so-called ability to play with other people's emotions come naturally to them and it is no deliberate. ESP is an amazing capability that comes naturally to all Piscean women. Most of them engage themselves in charitable and social activities or with those organizations that provide social service to the needy and poor.
Pisces Woman Health
Externally, Pisces is a water sign that governs the water hydration system the body. Internally, Pisces controls vital organ systems like lymphatic and hormonal systems. Pisces also control other organs like feet, bones and toes. Hence, body swelling, lymph problems, injuries to the feet, severe allergies and other problems related to blood circulation can trouble a Piscean woman throughout her life.
Pisces Woman Money and Career
Pisces women are always generous and free when it comes to careful spending. At times, they may like to indulge in enjoying worldly pleasures and materials. A typical Piscean woman can be a very good teacher, psychologist or a corporate manager; just watch her how she manages and administers her employees and students with her wit and intelligence. She is also a very careful investor who is always ready to put her money into those plans that bring her plenty of returns. A Piscean woman can be very resourceful and monetarily self-sufficient. She knows how to create her own resources and cash surpluses. She can easily achieve financial stability with her highly innovative mind.
Pisces Woman in Love
When you have an active partnership with a Piscean woman, you can expect a deep and extended emotional experience that is prone to periodical mood shits and changes. However, she can be extremely romantic and passionate when it comes to love and sex. A Piscean woman likes to treat physical desire and sexual satisfaction as tools of emotional bliss and contentment as method to satisfy her nostalgic feelings. However, be careful how you treat a Pisces woman because she can detect and identify you well-hidden emotional aspects of your life within a few seconds. She can be an enigma and mystery to many men! However, she can be very kind and considerate at the same time. She can relate very well other signs like Cancer and Scorpio. On the other hand, Aries, Leo, Virgo, Gemini, Aquarius, and Sagittarius could be the most incompatible sun signs for her.

This text was copied from Wikipedia on 27 March 2015 at 6:01AM.
In music, a catch is a type of round or canon at the unison. That is, a musical composition in which two or more voices (usually at least three) repeatedly sing the same melody, beginning at different times.
In early collections[1] catch and round were interchangeable and, with part-songs and multi-voice canons, were all indexed as "songs". The catch and round differ from the canon in having a cadence on which the song can terminate after a specified number of repeats or when the leader gives a signal. The notion that a catch necessarily requires the lines of lyrics to interact so that a word or phrase is produced from one part in the rests of another became prevalent in the later part of the eighteenth century. This was under the influence of the competitions sponsored by the Noblemen and Gentlemen's Catch Club from 1761 onwards. Thus, Hawkins (vol. ii.) definition as that species of round 'wherein, to humour some conceit in the words, the melody is broken, and the sense interrupted in one part, and caught again or supplied by another'.[2] is by no means universal.
Catches were originally written out at length as one continuous melody, and not in score. The change to printing in score was first made by Maurice Greene (composer)(1696-1755) who became Master of the King's Music in 1735, and this is now the usual method of presentation. In the score for a catch the different voices are usually labelled, "1", "2", "3", etc. This indicates that voice "1" sings its part first. When the part has been completed it is sung by voice "2" and so on. A common mistake in performance is for all parts to start together as though the score were to indicate a part song.
As noted under round the earliest secular piece of interest is Sumer is icumen in from the thirteenth century. Though there may well have been many more over the years, few survived and the first substantial collection is a single manuscript written out by Thomas Lant, dated 1580, containing 57 catches and rounds. Only seven of these songs were not included in one of the three publications (1609-1611) by Thomas Ravenscroft and the Scottish MS by David Melvill (see reference 1). Between them these sources give 145 catches mostly from the C16; two drinking songs have been ascribed to Orlande de Lassus but the remainder are obstinately anonymous.
Some significant composers of catches in later years were Henry Purcell (A catch upon the viol [2]), Michael Wise (A catch upon the midnight cats [3]) and John Wall Callcott. Callcott's best known catch Sir John Hawkins' History of Music [4] ridiculed Sir John Hawkins' work by comparison with a similar work by Charles Burney. An example of a particularly lewd catch is My man John [5] by John Eccles.
One of the most prolific of modern composers of catches is Donald Sosin, who has written dozens of them for special occasions and a variety of vocal groups since learning the craft from his composition professor Dennis Riley at Columbia University in 1974.
An example on the "University of Michigan Men's Glee Club": [6]
- We took off our ugly clothes
- And put on our tails again
- We combed our hair
- We're beautiful to look at
- We feel immense joy
- To be in your city
- Of course we'll tell you who we are
- We could never forgive the omission.
Which resolves into the phrase "Men's Glee Club, University of Michigan", with the second syllable of immense forming the word men's, the second syllable of ugly forming the word glee, and the first syllables of the words clothes and beautiful combining with never and city to form the word club and the word university, and so on. You can listen to this catch on SoundCloud.
Another well-known example is the "Liverpool Street Station Song", beginning, "The girl that I love has given me the shove \\ She says I am too low for her station".
Two main composition techniques are used for making the message audible: using rests in other parts that don't have a part of the message (for example, in Uitdenbogerd's "A Big Laugh" (2007), one part has "ha (rest) ha (rest)" while the other part has "(rest) don (rest) don" to make the message component "hard on, hard on"), or using the highest notes at any time to be the message melody notes. Those that rely on the second technique tend to be less obvious in performance unless emphasised. A performance technique used by Uitdenbogerd for Australian Intervarsity Choral Festival revues is to sing the catch in unison, then in parts, then with message words emphasised, and then finally only the message words. This technique only works for catches that have a message that spans the entire phrase.[3] This method of performance has led to a new innovation in catch-writing, pioneered by M. Winikoff, in which a recognisable message melody is embedded within the catch.
Catches in popular music
Dashboard Confessional used a catch in the chorus of the song "Hold On" from the album The Swiss Army Romance. The chorus line is "It's cruel but she's got a good hold on me", which when sung as a canon causes the message "Screw me" to be heard.
The Art of the Ground Round by P. D. Q. Bach uses several catches. "Loving is as easy" uses a catch to form the words "hot dog", and "Please, kind sir" combines "look, her face could launch a thousand ships" and "she's up dressing, she'll be down in a jiffy" to create "look up her dress".[4]

It was established in 1883; its first post office was located in a large building by the Chaophraya river, at the northern side of Ong-Ang canal.
Prior to the operation Thailand Post, there was a limited mail service, mainly for the royal family. Domestic mail travelled by messengers while international mail travelled by steamboat to post offices in nearby countries, such as the Straits Settlements.
The earliest recorded mail from Bangkok dates back only to 1836 when American missionary Dan Beach Bradley sent a letter to his father in a stampless cover. The British Consular Post Office in Bangkok was established by Great Britain in 1858 as a consequence of a treaty signed between Great Britain and Siam (now known as Thailand) on 1855-04-18, and in response to a demand by expatriate merchants and missionaries. It ceased to provide service on 1 July 1885, the day Siam joined the Universal Postal Union and started its own international postal service. During that time most of the mail from Bangkok was sent by diplomatic pouch to Singapore for forwarding. On 4 August 1883, the first stamp was issued in Siam.[1]
Current operations[edit]
Thailand Post currently offer postal and financial services, and some types of telecommunication service. It has established numerous offices nationwide.
