5.0 out of 5 stars Holy Spirit Spiritual Soul & Gospel Funk,
Briliant CD. Food for the soul. Nicely packaged. Arrived promptly. Some rare tracks that are hard to find. I love listening to this!
4.0 out of 5 stars Some real gems,
This double CD has some really cool and soulful gospel songs. There are a couple of weaker tracks so if you listen to the whole thing back to back then it can get a bit much. Best thing to do is rip it to your computer, create a play list of the best songs and go from there.

Automatic Creation of Openings in Revit® and Collision Detection
Cut Opening (previous product name Cut Opening Pro) manages the creation of openings in Revit where ducts, pipes, cable trays or conduits intersect floors, walls, roofs, ceilings, beams, and columns. Application uses Revit® "Interference Check" results for opening creation. This BIM solution's ability to insert, modify, update openings in a fast and easy way is an essential need for every Revit user. Cut Opening is exclusive because it automatically detects and adds openings for different categories. Openings can be added according to MEP elements that come from the current, linked or IFC files.
Cut Opening solution is useful to any companies which work in civil, structural and architectural spheres. Cut Opening expedites collision detection and holes cutting processes that are aimed for architects, structural and MEP engineers.
Cut Opening easily and automatically cuts holes in the places where MEP Ducts, Pipes, Cable traces or Conduits intersect walls, floors, roofs, beams, columns or ceilings. Users don't need to spend time on finding collisions and adding openings manually. Users are be able to filter openings that are on specific walls, floors, roofs, columns, beams or ceilings and check if the openings are really created or should be updated. It saves time, increases performance and prevents user from making mistakes.
Using Cut Opening BIM solution users can find collisions of Revit elements from the current, linked or IFC files. Such collisions can be filtered and grouped according to the category, level or other parameters. User can change the offset and shape of openings before inserting it to the model. After pressing one click the software creates all openings. If there are any changes in the structural or MEP models, Cut Opening updates openings automatically. Cut Opening shows the state of changes as if they are deleted, created, create new, change host, change position, change dimension, change shape. Cut Opening dialog works like external application, so there is no need to close and open the dialog every time. All modification and additional insertions happen in real time.
Compatible with BIM software Autodesk® Revit®, Autodesk® Revit® Architecture, Revit® Structure, Revit® MEP.

Hamilton has lost $100 million in research funding in one year.
The loss of more than 15 per cent of research dollars at McMaster University and Hamilton Health Sciences comes at the same time drug companies are pulling research dollars out of Canada.
Both rely heavily on pharmaceutical dollars with industry providing 80 to 90 per cent of research funding for HHS, the corporation that runs the bulk of the city's hospitals.
"We've had one of our worst years financially," said Dr. Salim Yusuf, vice-president of research at HHS and director of the Population Health Research Institute, which is Hamilton's most prominent research group.
"The pharmaceutical industry is hurting," he said. "The last two years have been really tough."
McMaster was the only university in the top six national research earners to lose funding, revealed the report by Re$earch Infosource Inc, which tracks research and development dollars in Canada. Four of the five top hospitals lost money, but HHS was hit hardest by far.
"It's worrisome," said Ron Freedman, CEO of Re$earch Infosource.
Part of the reason is that three Hamilton-led drug studies worth roughly $100 million each have been unexpectedly shut down in the past two years over safety concerns. One was Rosiglitazone for diabetes, another was Aliskiren for blood pressure and the last was Dronedarone for heart arrhythmias.
"Those are huge hits," said Yusuf. "I've never had this happen to me to the extent it has happened. Often we find things work or are neutral, but to have three drugs in a row where you are concerned about safety is just very bad luck."
An expert in the drug approval process agreed it's "just the luck of the draw."
"It's unusual," said Joel Lexchin, professor of health policy and management at York University. "It's not unexpected."
Lexchin says pharmaceutical companies have halved the dollars going to research and development in Canada to about six per cent of sales in roughly the past two years.
At McMaster, that has translated into a nearly 18 per cent drop to $325 million in research funding, holding it at sixth on the Re$earch Inforsource list.
HHS went down 15.5 per cent to about $153 million, dropping it to fourth place from second. It's the second year in a row HHS has seen losses. In 2010, it dropped nearly 6 per cent to $180 million compared to $191 million in 2009.
Only St. Joseph's Healthcare saw its funding go up nearly 2 per cent to $30.6 million, putting it in 19th place nationally. However, very little of its funding comes from drug companies. It relies mostly on government and charities.
The city likely saw little impact from the plummeting research dollars.
Every one dollar in research funding generally creates about $3.50 worth of economic activity. But it takes sustained losses over many years before it's felt, said Marvin Ryder, assistant professor of marketing at McMaster and the former board chair of HHS. He compared the economic impact of one year worth of losses to the closing of a Walmart.
"Clearly, if this were to be a longer-term trend over two to four years, then yes, it would have an impact," said Ryder.
There is concern nationally that research dollars will continue to falter.
"Canada is losing a lot of money, most of it in Ontario and Quebec," said Wayne Taylor, McMaster professor and executive director of the Cameron Institute, a Hamilton health policy think tank. "It's just that other countries can do the clinical trials and faster than we can."
HHS and McMaster say they have new studies on the horizon.
"We're optimistic we'll bounce back," said Yusuf. "This is a temporary blip."

Lambuth University employees to get partial paychecks
JACKSON, Tenn. - JACKSON, Tenn. -- Employees of troubled Lambuth University will receive a partial paycheck Monday, and the university received a second extension to allow officials time to secure a $2 million letter of credit Lambuth needs to receive financial aid money for this year.
Lambuth spokeswoman Danielle Morris said the U.S. Department of Education has approved a Sept. 30 deadline.
The initial deadline was July 29, which had been extended to Monday.
The university must have the credit to receive about $4 million in federal student-aid funds during the school year.
"We're continuing to work on it; it just takes time," Morris said.

hey y'all I'm from perth and about 2 weeks into the raw till 4 lifestyle but have been vegan for a couple of months and vego for almost 2 years :) keen to meet some like minded peeps so let me know if you're having a meet up soon :)
Heya Meg! Nice to meet you. It would be great if you could come along to our next picnic and meet the crew :) There's a lot of us out there now, so you are definitely not alone. And now that it's mulberry season, you can join us for a forage!!
Hey all! My name is Meg, and I'm 17 years old. I'm currently transitioning to a raw till 4 lifestyle and then hopefully a hclf raw vegan lifestyle. I'm so happy that I managed to find a group of Perth fruit bats!
So just a quick update for Sunday's picnic (October 12). It will now be held at the Synergy Parkland at King's Park instead of Trigg beach. The parkland is just on May Drive (near Saw Avenue). Just give me a buzz on 0412 244 834 if you can't spot us :) Hope to see you all there!!
What do vegan zombies eat? Grains .... GRAINS!!!
Yes, these and many other golden vegan jokes will be on offer at our monthly picnic this Sunday :) So come along, meet the crew, and have some fun in the sun! We will hold the picnic at Clarko Reserve at Trigg Beach (it's the park at the end of Karrinyup road). We will be there from 1.30pm onwards :)
So same deal as usual, just bring along your own food to munch on. And don't worry, it doesn't just have to be fruit lol. There are so many different types of eaters within the group, so whatever you feel like eating that day, that is dandy by us :)
Oh, and feel free to bring along any friends, family or pets. There's a playground in the park, so the kiddies will be able to have fun too :) Even if you're not vegan yet and just want to come along and learn more, then it will be great to meet you.
If you can't spot the group, just give me a call on 0412 244 834 and I'll point you in the right direction.
I hope to see you all there! And maybe bring some grains to feed the zombies ;)
Heya Kam! Welcome to the group :) We totally understand that everyone is at a different stage, so don't feel bad at all about not being where you want to be just yet :) We just had our monthly picnic last week, but it will be great to see you at our next one. We also do lots of other random stuff together, like hit up the beach, or go foraging for mulberries. Most of the social stuff is organised on the Fruity in WA facebook page. But I'll try to post more info on here for those who don't have facebook :)
Hello, my name is Kam and I never go on these kinds of forums, I don't even use Facebook, but I'm interested in coming along to the next gathering and meeting some like minded people! I've been vegetarian for about 2 years and mostly vegan for the past 18 months... the reason for being a little bit inconsistent is primarily social circumstances and having a non-vego partner (which is a bad excuse but just the reality for me at the moment), so I think it would be helpful to have some mates who make this lifestyle a bit easier to live. Luckily my partner is very supportive, but sometimes it can be a bit hard making separate meals and feeling 'high maintenance' and 'fussy with food' when really I just want to eat in a way that is clean and nutritious for my body and sustainable for the planet, what's so fussy about that hey? ;-) Anyway, nice to meet you via web and hopefully soon in person!
Ok, so I've been working on a special dance move this week, and would love to show it to you all this Sunday. It's called the anti-rain dance move. If I pull it off correctly, the rain will stay away while we have our monthly picnic :)
So come along to King's Park this Sunday from 1pm to join us for some fun in the sun! Instead of our usual spot at Synergy Parkland, we will meet at the park called the Pioneer Women's Memorial to make the most of the free jazz music on offer. After all, I need some good music to be able to pull of this extraordinary dance move ;)
Legend has it that only two men have ever attempted the anti-rain dance move before - Superman and Chuck Norris. They did it in a dance-...off. The loser had to wear their underwear on the outside.
Anyways, back to the picnic ... everyone is welcome! Even if you're not vegan yet, please still come along and meet the crew :) And because everyone has their own specific dietary preferences, just bring along your own food to munch on to make things easier.
We will set up maybe around 60m in front of the music stage. We will be the group surrounded by heaps of fruit lol. But if you can't spot us, just give me a call on 0412 244 834 and I can point you in the right direction :)
The Pioneer Women's Memorial park is along Forrest Drive, overlooking the Swan River. There's a big fountain in the middle, and the grass is quite sloped. It's quite easy to find. Here is a map for it. http://www.bgpa.wa.gov.au/kings-park/events/events-calendar/location/3-pioneer-women-s-memorial
If you get lost, Chuck Norris can help guide you in the right direction. Did you know that Chuck Norris is the reason why Waldo is hiding?
I hope to see you all Sunday!!!

Window City or Atlantic? Your thoughts, please!
marklandJuly 12, 2009
At the moment, I'm replacing a kitchen and have decided on double hung windows. The price for both companies is about the same. Window City has only been at my disbtibutor here in Ontario since February, so I'm a bit leery, but they really look great. Does anyone have any experience with either Window City or Atlantic windows. I'm not going with triple paned. Any comments would be much appreciated. One other question. My designer says to stay away from vinyl, but everyone else seems to think it's the way to go, they're much improved over the last 20 years. I've overthought every single other decision in this kitchen, and I don't want to do that with the windows!!! Thanks.

digital climate control
99 intrigue. the car has dual digital climate control. the onscreen outside temp is off about 30 degF from actual. could it be the external temp sensor? anyone know where that is? the function led lights are not working also for dash/vent/floor. maybe i should just scrounge up a junkyard dash module. any ideas? the a/c works fine, temps feel good.
Joe, if it is like the Grand Prix it is next to the right hand head light on the radiator support. Loosen and lift the right side of the black plastic cover between the grill and radiato support. This is what it looks like (hope the link works) I just replaced one on my sons 99 Grand Prix. Cost around $13.
Joe, A couple of follow up thoughts. When you change the sensor it might not change the temp display right away. The way the system is designed is you have to drive the car for 1 1/2 minutes at 25 mph before it changes the temp display. Or 1 minute a 45 mph (sensor needs to get into clean air). After sensor is changed. I found that out the hard way. While trouble shooting the Grand Prix I switched the one out of my wife's van (same part #) and the temp display didn't change (didn't drive it just switched sensors). So I concluded that the sensor wasn't the problem. Then I found out about the speed and time factor. So went and purchased sensor and it work fine. This started when the AC would not work. Had the system evac. and re-charged and still didn't work. Then realized the outside temp was reading 34 degrees. AC won't work if outside temp is reading below 38 degrees.

When Barry Fairweather dies unexpectedly in his early forties, the little town of Pagford is left in shock. Pagford is, seemingly, an English idyll, with a cobbled market square and an ancient abbey, but what lies behind the pretty facade is a town at war. Rich at war with poor, teenagers at war with their parents, wives at war with their husbands, teachers at war with their pupils-Pagford is not what it first seems. And the empty seat left by Barry on the town's council soon becomes the catalyst for the biggest war the town has yet seen. Who will triumph in an election fraught with passion, duplicity and unexpected revelations?

Our special coverage of the closest race for years
Fault Lines on the city's homelessness crisis
03 Jun 2013 02:16 GMT | Politics, Africa, US & Canada, Mali, Niger
Niger's government has said that about 22 inmates, including several "terrorists", escaped a prison in the capital Niamey after armed men attacked the jail.
The statement came on Sunday, a day after officials said the escape bid had failed.
Marou Amadou, the justice minister, who also acts as government spokesman, said that inmates facing terrorism charges had killed three prison guards and seriously wounded three others during the shootout on Saturday.
"It has emerged from initial investigations at the site that the aggressors obviously benefitted from outside complicity regarding the weapon introduced into the prison," Amadou said.
Among the escapees was Cheibane Ould Hama, who was imprisoned for killing four Saudis and a US citizen, Amadou said, adding that Hama was "actively sought".
Hama was sentenced to 20 years in prison in June 2012 for his involvement in an attack on a group of tourists on a hunting safari that killed four Saudi nationals in December 2009 and the killing of an American in a bar in Niamey in 2000.
The escaped prisoners are "a danger for the region", a Malian security source said.
The prison attack happened a little over a week after twin suicide bombings on an army base and French-run uranium mine claimed more than 20 lives in northern Niger on May 23.
Responsibility claim
Two armed groups - Movement for Oneness and Jihad in West Africa (MUJAO) and Signatories in Blood - claimed responsibility for the attacks, saying they were in retaliation for Niger sending troops to participate in a French-led military operation against al-Qaeda-linked fighters in neighbouring Mali.
He called on the West African country's people to "remain calm" and exercise their "duty to be vigilant".
In a separate incident, officers from Niger's anti-terror squad killed one person and wounded another on Sunday when they opened fire on what they said was a suspicious-looking 4WD vehicle with tinted windows that had been driving back and forth in front of their headquarters.
Amadou said officers had given the "usual warnings" before firing shots in order to stop the vehicle.
The car's other two occupants have been taken into custody, he said.
Residents said the vehicle may have simply been cruising around central Niamey..
Niger has seen repeated kidnappings and attacks on its territory by Al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM) in recent years.
Signatories in Blood, one of the groups that claimed the May 23 bombings, has threatened to carry out further attacks on Niger and other countries with troops in Mali.

Phil Emery announced during Tuesdays practice that Martellus Bennett has been fined and suspended for an undetermined amount of time for conduct detrimental to the team. Bennett is not currently with the team in Bourbonnais.
Nearly two hours into Monday's practice, Bennett was brought down by his shoulder pads by top pick Kyle Fuller after the rookie made a clean play by breaking up a pass in the tight red zone drill. After hitting the ground, Bennett (6-6, 265 pounds) immediately bounced up, first shoving Fuller (6-0, 190) before body slamming the first-round pick.
"Our goal is to have Martellus back as soon as possible," Emery said. "He's a very loved and respected teammate and we want him back, but it's a process we have to work through. He will remain on the active, 90-man roster, but he will not be involved in any team activities at this time."
Marc Trestman said that he has been in contact with Bennett and that the team is supporting him during the suspension.
"I want you to know that we're in communication with Marty. I'll be talking with him today," he said. "We've got a plan and a process in place. And as I told the team today, we love him. He works hard. He loves football. He's a good father and we want to get him back as soon as we can and we'll go through this process and when the time is right he'll be back."
Bennett had 65 catches for 759 yards and five touchdowns last season, his first with the Bears. He has been involved in several scuffles in practice, dating back to last training camp and including a dust-up with Lamarr Houston in OTAs this spring.
"I don't think you can process it. It's a tough situation," Jay Cutler said after practice. "I thought Kyle did a great job of handling himself and we'll move forward. We're all supporting Marty and hope we get him back soon."
Offensive coordinator Aaron Kromer echoed Cutler's sentiment about looking forward to getting Bennett back.
"We're really looking forward to Marty's return," he asid. "...Everybody on the team wants Marty back. We want the right Marty back. He had 65 catches last year, and he's a good person and a good father, and we want that guy on the field."

I currently run 2 carbonation systems when making/dispensing my beer.
I mass carbonate 3-4 Corny's at a time at room temp, using a Gas manifold I fabricated . Temps are about 14 degrees Celcius. CO2 pressure on this system is around 20 PSI.
When I put a Corny in a Keg, I relieve the pressure and hook up to the fridge system which is around 8 PSI and fridge temps are about 2-5 degrees celcius.
I seem to not get as much carbonation as commercial beer or even the size of the Bubble. Are my pressures too low? What should I do?
How long are you carbonating at room temperature?
Make Beer, Not War.
2 weeks, minimum
Do I have the pressures right for the room temps?
There are pressure to temp calculators available on the internet.
Here is one at bottom of page.Crockett Brewing Force Carbonation
Assuming you are going for say 2.4 volumes and your ambient temp of the keg is 70 deg F, it looks like you should be at about 27psi on your gas. Adjust for your actual temp.
Looks like space is a concern for you, but your carbonating would be a lot more efficient if you could cool the kegs down, even maybe in a basement or something. Can save you on CO2 costs.
edit: Actually just noticed you said your temps are about 14C, which is about 57F. If that is correct than your 20psi is about correct. You could bump it a few psi and see if that gets you what you are loking for.
Your CO2 level in the fridge looks a bit low though. Assuming an average temp of say 3 deg C you should still be up around 10psi if you are looking for 2.4 volumes
The type of beer you are drinking, and the length and diameter of dispensing line come into play as well.
Fridge pressure has been adjusted to 10 PSI and the pressure on the system outside the room is up to 24 now. How much will hose length and dia affect pressure, taking into account I have my tank hooked to a Gas manifold that distributes CO2 to 4 Corny's at once. Not sure if I should be bumping the pressure up based on this.
Hi Tuzlo:
The hose diameter and length is more relative to when you have the beer on tap. Basically you encounter resistance in the line out from the keg to the tap and must make some adjustments in your psi when running longer lines due to line resistance. I don't think that comes into play when carbonating. For just a run from the keg to the tap most people use somewhere in the 5-8ft area of beer line.
Give the beer in the fridge a couple days to absorb the new carb level and see if it is acceptable to you. 10 psi was just a base point for you approximate temp and assuming 2.4 volumes of co2. (your carbonation preferences may vary) As I said based on the type of beer as well you may wish to make further adjustments. At the temp you are dispensing at I would think somewhere in the 10-12 psi level will get you up to the carbonation level you are looking for. Give the 10 psi a shot for a couple days.

The Turkish military returned fire after a mortar bomb fired from Syria landed in countryside in southern Turkey, the state-run Anatolian news agency reported the governor of Hatay province as saying on Friday.Turkish artillery bombarded Syrian military targets on Wednesday and Thursday in response to shelling by Syrian forces that killed five Turkish civilians further east along the border.Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan warned on Friday his country was "not far" from war with Syria following cross-border attacks this week - words which highlighted the danger that the uprising against Syrian President Bashar Asaad will drag in its neighbors.In a belligerent speech to a crowd in Istanbul, Erdogan warned the Assad government it would be making a fatal mistake if it picked a fight with Turkey.The speech followed a Syrian mortar barrage on a town in southeast Turkey that killed five people on Tuesday.Turkish artillery bombarded Syrian military targets on Wednesday and Thursday in response, killing several Syrian soldiers, and the Turkish parliament has authorized cross-border military action in the event of further aggression."We are not interested in war, but we're not far from it either," Erdogan said in his speech."Those who attempt to test Turkey's deterrence, its decisiveness, its capacity, I say here they are making a fatal mistake."At the United Nations, the Security Council condemned the original Syrian attack and demanded that such violations of international law stop immediately.The United States has said it stands by its NATO ally's right to defend itself against aggression spilling over from Syria's war.The cross-border violence was the most serious so far in the conflict, now in its 19th month, and underscored how it could flare across the region.Turkey, once an Assad ally and now a leading voice in calls for him to quit, shelters more than 90,000 Syrian refugees in camps on its territory and has allowed rebel army leaders sanctuary.Violence has also spilled over into Lebanon.'Air defense base captured'More than 30,000 people have been killed in the revolt against Assad, which began with peaceful street protests but is now a full-scale civil war also fought on sectarian lines.Across the country about 180 people were killed in violence on Thursday, including 48 government soldiers, the British-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.The rebels said they had captured an air defense base with a cache of missiles outside Damascus on Thursday, a boost to their campaign after a series of setbacks in the capital.Video posted on YouTube of the aftermath of the assault showed dozens of rebels dressed in army fatigues celebrating as black smoke rose from a military installation behind them.A middle-aged man holding a rifle says the attack was carried out by a rebel battalion from the town of Douma. It also showed rebels at a weapons cache which included what appeared to be part of a surface-to-air missile.It was not possible to independently verify the videos. Access to Syria for foreign journalists is restricted by the Syrian government.Although fighting often takes place in the Damascus suburbs, rebel forces have been unable to hold areas for long in the face of government artillery and air power. They have staged devastating bomb attacks on government and military offices in the heart of the city, however.Syria apologizesSyria's ally Russia said it had received assurances from Damascus that the strike on Turkey had been a tragic accident but Erdogan dismissed it, saying this was the eighth time Syrian mortar rounds had hit Turkish ground.Turkey has made clear it is ready to launch retaliatory strikes again if the war spills over the border but it has also said it will act under international law and in coordination with other foreign powers.Despite his belligerent rhetoric on Friday, Erdogan has said the parliamentary vote was a deterrent and he was not interested in war.The UN condemnation was issued after two days of negotiations on an initial text rejected by Russia.Consensus within the council on Syria-related matters is unusual and it has been deadlocked over the conflict, with veto-wielding Russia and China rejecting calls to sanction the Damascus government.

Westminster paedophiles are like Jimmy Savile and Peter Jaconelli: guilty now that they're dead
Tim Hick, Crime and Parliamentary Affairs Correspondent for the North Yorkshire Enquirer, has news:
For some time now, despite intimidation and threats from the Police and Scarborough Borough Council, the North Yorks Enquirer has been pursuing the truth. We have consistently alleged that there was a major paedophile-ring operating in Scarborough from 1947 until about 2009 and that it included Jimmy Savile and Peter Jaconelli, the Mayor of Scarborough. We have alleged that his ring was the most successful paedophile ring in British criminal history, was connected to the Westminster paedophile ring, operated far beyond North Yorkshire, had international connections and was involved in trafficking and enticing young people into prostitution. It was successful because Jaconelli was protected by North Yorkshire Police, because he was a Scarborough Borough Councillor, County Councillor, millionaire businessman, Mayor, leading Scarborough Citizen who was a School Governor and ran the local Judo Club.

Jimmy Savile: now comes the cash
Jimmy Savile – revered as a Knight of the realm and Papacy in life who became the Devil incarnate in death – is to pay out.
The Times reports:
Around 200 victims of sexual abuse by the television personality Jimmy Savile are in line for compensation after a ruling by appeal judges today.
Can all the victims be proven?
Three judges in the Court of Appeal in London rejected a challenge by a charitable trust which is one of the main beneficiaries of the Savile estate to the £3 million compensation scheme that has been set up. Lawyers representing the Jimmy Savile Charitable Trust had argued that the scheme – agreed between the estate executor, the NatWest bank, and lawyers representing alleged victims – was not able to assess the ''validity'' of claimants and lacked a ''process of evaluation''.

Jimmy Savile And The Married Bisexual Monk And Convicted Child Abuser Who Fixed Clocks For Kids
DID you see the convicted child abuser on Jim'll Fix It, the Jimmy Savile BBC show whereon the twice-over knight (papal and regal) made kids' wishes come true? Of course the biggest wish he saved for later when he dropped dead.
The peado wasn't just Jimmy. He's only an alleged one. This other padon was an actual proven nonce. As the Telegraph reports:
A young girl was "set up" to appear on Jim'll Fix It alongside a convicted child abuser, the BBC has reported.
Was she set up because he was a young girl?
Confidential social services reports confirm that Keith Harding, an antiques expert who appeared on the 1980 Christmas edition of the show, was involved with the notorious campaign group, the Paedophile Information Exchange (Pie), according to the Radio 4's Today programme. It said that Harding was convicted of indecent assault against four children aged eight and nine in the late 1950s and was a "schedule 1″ offender – meaning his convictions remained on his police file for life.
However he was subsequently given the Freedom of the City of London and became a member of the Worshipful Company of Clockmakers, as well as running a museum regularly visited by children.

Jimmy Savile Compensation: Victims Roll Up To The Great Charity Give Away

Those targeted by the sex beast are expected to reject the "pitiful" compensation. It is thought people who were raped by the late DJ may get slightly more.

Paedo-Panic: Puxton Park Would Have Let Jimmy Savile Watch The Birds
CAROLE Mideley has few sane words about the paedo panic. Last week a man was banned from Puxton Park park for being an adult male unaccompanied by a child:
We can be bawled out by security for filming our own toddler in a ballpool (legally you can photograph anyone in a public place, but on private property it is at the management's discretion), yet serial child sex abusers ran rampant in places like Rotherham undisturbed. What seems to matter is being seen to be vigilant, even if it does amount to a hill of beans. Julie Spence, former chief constable of Cambridgeshire, recently said the force spent more on CRB checks than they did on real child protection, ie, tracking actual sex offenders. About 3.9 million such checks were carried out last year. Most will be vital, of course, but 843,000 of those were on volunteers offering to help with school trips, discos or reading. A friend recently volunteered as a helper at her son's school but was told she hadn't been "trained". What they probably meant but were too polite to say was that she hadn't been vetted for a paedo past. Worth remembering, meanwhile, that a CRB-type check would have picked up nothing amiss with Jimmy Savile.

Jimmy Savile: The BBC's Pet Paedo May Not Have Abused Victims In 41 Hospitals
JIMMY Savile has yet to be dug up and beaten with sticks, his head stuck on a spike. But the man never tried for his alleged crimes remains under investigation. The Times tells readers:
Jimmy Savile may have sexually abused patients at 41 hospitals, the health secretary has revealed. New allegations have been made in relation to 12 NHS trusts, including nine not previously implicated in the scandal.
It's always useful to turn sensation on its head.
Jimmy Savile may not have sexually abused patients at 41 hospitals, the health secretary has revealed.
What Hunt revealed was nothing at all. He just hinted and suggested that the purge on paedos was making progress.

The BBC's Futile Attempt To Erase Jimmy Savile
THE BBC very much regrest including the face of dead DJ Jimmy Savile during a Top Of The Pops highlights show this September. Sir Jimmy, as he was known at the time of filming (the repugnant man was both a Papal knight and knight of the realm), is not a BBC highlight and must be shown only on the news.
The BBC says:
"Although all programmes are reviewed before broadcast, unfortunately this brief appearance was missed. It was removed from iPlayer as soon as we were made aware and replaced with a re-edited version. We apologise for any distress caused."

Plain Sight: The Life and Lies of Jimmy Savile – Blame The Parents
JIMMY Savile is the subejct of Dan Davies's book Plain Sight: The Life and Lies of Jimmy Savile. The man known in his lifetime as Sir Jimmy has now buried in muck and filth. Savile never was arrested, charged nor tried in his lifetime. He is the alleged paedophile and rapist who operated on the BBC and NHS's watch.
Rachel Cooke writes:
As I read Davies's book, the term "light entertainment" suddenly struck me as the greatest joke. What a misnomer. It wasn't light at all. It was dark and heavy: clodhopping at best, sinister at worst. All the programmes I enjoyed most as a child came with heavy doses of innuendo, low-level violence, sadomasochism. There was Dick Emery, who dressed up as a sexually frustrated spinster – at the time I didn't know what frottage was, except I sort of did, thanks to her – and as a toothy vicar whose pious exterior made for a sharp contrast with his visits to "naughty" strip clubs. (Davies, I notice, has a picture of this vicar on his Twitter account.) There were the two Ronnies, Barker and Corbett, whose show included peculiar serials such as "The Worm That Turned", a dystopian fiction starring Diana Dors, in which women ruled the world (mostly in hot pants and jackboots) and men wore women's clothes and kept house, and "Band of Slaves", in which an all-girl orchestra was sold into slavery. Rod Hull and his puppet Emu performed a tango of aggression so convincing, you couldn't help but rub your upper arms as you watched, imagining the bruises on those of their victims. Benny Hill was forbidden in our house – he was on ITV – but I knew the shtick. He chased girls. Round and round and round. (Hill, incidentally, made a shrine of his dead mother's clothes, just as Savile did with those of his beloved "Duchess".) Somehow, Ben Elton's controversial attack on Hill – the comedian's routine, he suggested, incited rape and other acts of violence against women – doesn't seem quite so over-the-top now as when he made it in 1987.

THIS year would mark the 50th anniversary of Top Of The Pops. The show was, until relatively recently, a cornerstone of British television.

And then there's the ongoing Jimmy Savile child abuse scandal.

James McAvoy auditions for Jimmy Savile role at the Filth premiere
JAMES McAvoy's new film Filth has opened in London. McAvoy would play Jimmy Savile if Trainspotting author Irvine Welsh ever penned a script about the BBC DJ, NHS ward wharbler and sex predator, the Scottish novelist has said. Welsh told the Radio Times that while making Filth, he discussed the subject of sexual abuse with X-Men star McAvoy, who apparently told him: "If you ever write a script about it, I'd love to play Jimmy Savile." Maybe the film could feature a trial and name some of the enablers who let Savile prosper? After all, the law never did catch up with Savile while he was alive…

Jimmy Savile Horror: the 'secret lair' above a Manchester record shop and 650 'victims'
CAN we all agree that Jimmy Savile was convicted of not a single sex crime during his successful BBC career? Good. That is the only fact which we can all agree on without a shadow of doubt. Of course, the welter of evidence collated since his death says that Aunty's charitable DJ lived a life as putrid as his rotting corpse. Indeed, rumours are that sex with dead bodies was not beyond his tastes.

Computer Service Departments (Tech Benches) at Retail Outlets Are Having a Growing Impact on Software Sales.
PORT WASHINGTON, N.Y. -- According to Consumer Software Purchase Motivators and Influences, a report just released by The NPD Group that provides an in-depth analysis of adults' purchase habits and motivations with regards to computer software products, 59 percent of respondents said that they purchased at least one computer software title in 2006. System Utilities, PC Games, and Finance were the top three software categories purchased over the last year.
The survey sheds light on a variety of topics, including the rise of used software sales, what motivates software customers to switch brands, the growth in the number of consumers who are using software to manage digital photos and edit digital video, and how the increasing number of computers in the home is driving the purchase of "multi-license" software products.
The survey also documents the rapid growth in sales of software products through retail "tech benches" - the computer service departments at big box retailers. According to the survey, 8 percent of respondents that purchased software at a big box retailer with a computer service department bought their product through the tech bench rather than off the shelf. Anti-virus and anti-spyware titles were the top titles sold through these tech benches.
"We have been aware of the growth in retail tech bench sales volume for a couple of years now, as we've been closely monitoring the sales volumes from the point-of-sale (POS) data that the NPD Group receives from the retail channel," said Chris Swenson, director of software industry analysis, The NPD Group. "However, it was somewhat difficult to pinpoint exactly how much of the volume was flowing through the retail tech bench, and how much was off the shelf. The results from this survey indicate that the retail tech bench software sales volume is massive, and is growing rapidly."
Furthermore, Swenson said, "Given the high percentage of respondents that said they made their tech bench software purchase with a new computer, it appears that sales representatives at these big box retailers are increasingly steering the customers purchasing new computers to their tech bench to purchase additional software and the corresponding software installation services."
While some pundits have proclaimed that the retail channel is declining in importance for security software publishers, Swenson believes that these survey results show the retail channel is actually increasing in importance for these publishers. "We've been telling our clients for some time now that the retail tech bench is the new security software kingmaker. Those security software companies that ignore the tech bench do so at their own risk," he said.
Data was collected via an online survey emailed to a sample of adults 18 and older. The data was then weighted to the U.S. Census to ensure a nationally representative sample. The report is based on 3,590 completed surveys. Fieldwork was conducted from January 17-29, 2007.
